Leadership Transition

In conjunction with the CEO appointment, Carbeeza announces that Kenneth W. Brizel replaces Mark Tommasi, the current interim CEO. The Board of Directors extends its sincere thanks to Mark Tommasi for his dedicated efforts and valuable contributions in advancing the Company's objectives.

Additionally, Carbeeza is pleased to announce that Joanna Hampton has agreed to rejoin the Company in her role as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Her return brings valuable continuity and financial leadership to the executive team as the Company enters its next phase of growth.

Equity Incentive Agreement

In connection with his appointment, the Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Brizel that includes an equity incentive component of up to 25,000,000 common shares of the Company (the "Shares"), issuable in tranches upon the achievement of defined performance-based milestones. These milestones include, among other things: (i) commercialization of the Company's first and second products; (ii) achieving profitability for each of the first and second products; and (iii) achieving consolidated net income of $0.05 per share (undiluted), prior to any share consolidation.

The issuance of any Shares under the agreement is subject to: (i) TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") acceptance, (ii) disinterested shareholder approval, and (iii) compliance with TSXV Policy 4.4 - Security-Based Compensation. Once issued, such Shares will be subject to a four-month hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws.

The Board of Directors believes this compensation structure aligns the long-term interests of management and shareholders, and appropriately incentivizes performance milestones that are expected to materially enhance shareholder value.
