The Metals Company commented: <FONT STYLE="color: #1D1C1D; background-color: white">&ldquo;Following the historic collector test and
monitoring campaign, in which we and our partners lifted over 3,000 tonnes of nodules to the surface and also collected over 200 terabytes
of environmental data, TMC continues to hit milestones and establish the strategic partnerships we need to continue delivering on our
capital-light approach to developing the NORI-D Nodule Project. We recently announced that we entered into a non-binding MOU with leading
nickel processor PAMCO of Japan to evaluate the processing of nodules into battery metal feedstocks, and we are thrilled to now have
Bechtel on our bench assisting with the NORI-D application for an exploitation license. Importantly, we&rsquo;re able to maintain our
financial flexibility going forward with the support of our partner Allseas in the form of a $25 million unsecured credit facility.&rdquo;</FONT></FONT></P>

decreased in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, reflecting a reduction in share-based compensation, and

the business combination and listing of the Company on NASDAQ. The decreased costs in the fourth quarter of 2022 were partially offset

recover; risks associated with collective, development and processing operations, including with respect to the development of
onshore processing capabilities and Allseas&rsquo; expected development efforts; TMC&rsquo;s dependence on Allseas; fluctuations in
transportation costs; fluctuations in metals prices; testing and manufacturing of equipment; risks associated with TMC&rsquo;s
