2024 FOD Enterprises LLC. Net Zero Hedge Fund in partnership with Climate Care Innovations Inc. (CCI) Update: Carbon Credit Partnerships, Investments, and Tax Credits

2022–2024 Strategic Milestones & Financial Growth

In December 2022, we made a pivotal commitment to secure $2 billion in funding, aligning with our ambition to expand our carbon credit initiatives globally. By early 2023, this commitment solidified further:

• January      2023: Expanded partnerships to include the European Union (EU) and the      United Arab Emirates (UAE), enhancing our reach and credibility within key      international markets.
• February      2023: Secured $2 billion in capital received into our fund, bolstering      the financial foundation for CCI’s growth.
• February      2023: Initiated deployment of $25 million into a commercial real      estate syndicate focused on low-carbon developments and net-zero      infrastructure, further aligning investment with sustainability.

In parallel, we continue to drive action through our partnership with Net Zero Hedge, which has successfully secured an additional $1 billion in committed funds over the past 90 days. This substantial commitment underscores the confidence of our stakeholders in CCI’s forward-looking vision.

Expanding Partnerships and Global Carbon Credit Trading Platforms

Throughout 2024, CCI has strategically expanded its global partnerships, deepening our alignment with both compliance and voluntary carbon markets:

• European      Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS): CCI now partners with 13      EU member-country trading platforms, strengthening our footprint      within Europe’s carbon reduction framework. This collaboration ensures      access to diverse carbon credits and robust trading opportunities.
• Washington      State Cap-and-Invest Program (CITSS ETS): We have engaged with the      Washington Cap-and-Invest CITSS ETS trading scheme, adding 3,338,122      allowances that are now ready for trading. This marks a major step in      our North American operations and broadens our access to marketable      allowances in one of the U.S.'s leading cap-and-trade systems.

Carbon Credit Market Integration with Leading Trading Desks and Clearing Houses

Through 2024, we have established strong relationships with multiple trading desks and clearinghouses to optimize our carbon credit trading processes and compliance:

• Marex,      EEX, and Targray: Our partnerships with these well-respected trading      desks provide access to a wider array of carbon credit assets and      sophisticated trading expertise.
• Nodal      Clearing: As our chosen clearinghouse, Nodal enables efficient      transaction processing, clearing, and risk management for our expanded      trading activities.

IRS Tax Credits for Carbon Offsetting in 2024

With the latest IRS tax credits for carbon reduction initiatives in 2024, CCI continues to prioritize financial benefits for our clients. These tax credits are strategically leveraged to optimize returns, making participation in carbon reduction not only environmentally beneficial but also financially advantageous.

Commitment to Future Growth in Carbon Markets

As we approach the end of 2024, Climate Care Innovations Inc. remains focused on scaling its global impact. In collaboration with our strategic partners, including Kompo Green Inc., Botanalytical Inc., and FOD Enterprises LLC, we are actively broadening our project portfolio to attract new global investments, including those from sovereign wealth funds, family offices, and institutional investors.

Our comprehensive ecosystem ensures that every project follows our Prolific-Fund Standard and Full Life-cycle Financial Carbon Offset (FLFCO) Protocol Certification, which verifies the integrity of carbon credits throughout their life cycle, guaranteeing sustainable outcomes and market viability.

Looking Ahead

Through these extensive partnerships and ongoing developments, FOD and CCI is committed to pioneering transparent, verifiable, and financially rewarding pathways toward a net-zero future, offering our clients avenues to maximize both their environmental impact and financial returns.

Strengthening Impact Investment: Partnership with the Gift of Love Foundation

Our partnership with the Gift of Love Foundation has become a cornerstone of NZHF and Climate Care Innovations Inc.'s (CCI) commitment to sustainable and socially responsible impact investment. This collaboration ensures that our projects extend beyond environmental impact to achieve meaningful social outcomes.

The Gift of Love Foundation serves as a critical failsafewithin our investment model, particularly as we deploy funds in projects aimed at achieving net-zero carbon goals. Through this partnership, we are able to:

• Reinforce      Community Impact: Gift of Love ensures that a portion of our carbon      credit and offset investments is allocated to projects with direct,      tangible benefits for local communities. This amplifies the social value      of our environmental initiatives, ensuring that they address urgent needs      such as clean energy access, education, and community resilience.
• Mitigate      Project Risk: By working with a well-established humanitarian      foundation, we have added a failsafe to our portfolio that offsets      potential project risks. In situations where a project faces unexpected      setbacks or underperforms, Gift of Love’s robust support network provides      additional financial and logistical resources, stabilizing our investments      and safeguarding their intended impact.
• Promote      Ethical Investment Standards: Partnering with Gift of Love aligns      CCI’s operations with a broader social mission, ensuring our investments      meet high ethical standards. This resonates with institutional investors      and family offices who are increasingly focused on funding projects that      deliver both measurable environmental impact and enhanced social equity.

The Gift of Love Foundation partnership exemplifies our belief that true impact investment should benefit both the environment and the communities it touches. As we scale our operations, this collaboration will continue to play a vital role in fortifying our commitment to achieving net-zero emissions while addressing essential social challenges worldwide.
