SCD Capital Corp.
SCD Capital was incorporated on September 4, 2025, pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (British
Columbia) and is a `Capital Pool Company' listed on the Exchange. SCD Capital has not commenced
commercial operations and has no assets other than cash. Except as specifically contemplated in
Policy 2.4 of the Exchange, until the completion of its Qualifying Transaction (as defined in the
policies of the Exchange), SCD Capital will not carry on business, other than the identification and
1
evaluation of companies, business or assets with a view to completing a proposed Qualifying
Transaction.
Proposed Transaction Summary
The Proposed Transaction is expected to be structured as a three-cornered amalgamation, whereby
SCD Capital will incorporate a wholly-owned subsidiary, which will amalgamate with Offshore
Designs (the "Amalgamation") to form a newly amalgamated company ("Amalco"). In connection
with the Amalgamation, holders of common shares in the capital of Offshore Designs ("Offshore
Designs Shares") will receive common shares in the capital of the Resulting Issuer (as defined below).
The Proposed Transaction is subject to the parties entering into a definitive agreement in respect of
the Proposed Transaction (the "Definitive Agreement") on or before November 30, 2026, or such
other date as Offshore Designs and SCD Capital may mutually agree. Completion of the Proposed
Transaction is also subject to a number of other customary conditions, including obtaining all
necessary board, shareholder and regulatory approvals, including Exchange approval. Pursuant to the
Proposed Transaction, SCD Capital shall change its name as requested by Offshore Designs acting
reasonably, and as may be acceptable to the Exchange and regulatory authorities (the "Resulting
Issuer") and it will adopt a new stock symbol. Concurrently with the closing of the Proposed
Transaction, the new board of directors of the Resulting Issuer may issue additional stock options to
directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Resulting Issuer in accordance with the existing
SCD Capital stock option plan, applicable Exchange policies and securities laws. Upon completion
of the Proposed Transaction, the Resulting Issuer will carry on the business of Offshore Designs, and
Amalco will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Resulting Issuer.
It is not currently anticipated that the Proposed Transaction will require the approval of the
shareholders of SCD Capital, as it is not a Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction (as defined in
Policy 2.4) or a related party transaction pursuant to the provisions of Multilateral Instrument 61-101
- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions.
Pursuant to the terms of the Proposed Transaction, SCD Capital will acquire all of the securities of
Offshore Designs on such terms and conditions as mutually agreed upon by the parties.
Bridge Loan
In connection with the Qualifying Transaction and as of the date of execution of the LOI, SCD Capital
shall advance a bridge loan to Offshore Designs in the amount of $25,000 and subject to the approval
of the Exchange, SCD Capital shall advance a further $225,000 to Offshore Designs, pursuant to
terms and conditions to be agreed to between the parties (the "Loan"). SCD Capital shall provide a
subsequent updating news release once such Loan terms are finalized. The initial $25,000 loan is
expected to be used by Offshore Designs for legal fees.
Concurrent Financing
SCD Capital and Offshore Designs or one of its affiliates shall complete, prior to or concurrently
with the Proposed Transaction, a private placement of subscription receipts or special warrants
aggregate gross proceeds of $2,000,000 and up to a maximum of $4,000,000 (the "Offering") on
such terms and conditions as mutually agreed upon by the parties. Finder's fees may be payable in
2
connection with the Offering. No finder's fees are expected to be payable in connection with the
Proposed Transaction.
Officers and Directors
Prior to completion of the Proposed Transaction and subject to approval by the Exchange and the
filing of all required materials, it is currently expected that the board of directors of the Resulting
Issuer will be reconstituted to comprise a slate of up to five (5) directors, at least two (2) directors of
which will be independent.
Non-Arm's Length Parties
No Non-Arm's Length Parties (as such term is defined Exchange policies) of SCD Capital have a
direct or indirect beneficial interest in Offshore Designs, as set out below. No Non-Arm's Length
Parties to SCD Capital are Insiders (as such term is defined in Exchange policies) of Offshore
Designs. No party or their respective Associates or Affiliates (as such terms are defined in Exchange
policies), is a Control Person (as defined in Exchange policies) of both SCD Capital and Offshore
Designs and as such, the Proposed Transaction will not be a Non-Arm's Length Qualifying
Transaction (as defined in Policy 2.4).
Trading in SCD Capital Shares
Trading in SCD Capital's common shares has been halted in compliance with the policies of the
Exchange. Trading in SCD Capital's common shares will remain halted pending the review of the
Proposed Transaction by the Exchange and satisfaction of the conditions of the Exchange for
resumption of trading. It is likely that trading in the SCD Capital's common shares will not resume
prior to the closing of the Proposed Transaction.

concerning future results or events based on the opinions, assumptions and estimates of management considered
reasonable at the date the statements are made. Although Offshore Designs and SCD Capital believe that the
expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements involve risks and
uncertainties, and undue reliance should not be placed thereon, as unknown or unpredictable factors could
have material adverse effects on future results, performance or achievements of the Resulting Issuer. Among
the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements are the following: the ability to consummate the Proposed Transaction; the ability to obtain

customers and competitors; changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including changes
in the financial markets; changes in applicable laws and regulations; compliance with extensive government
regulation and the costs associated with compliance; costs of building and developing projects and product

time on the Proposed Transaction. These forward-looking statements may be affected by risks and
uncertainties in the business of Offshore Designs and SCD Capital and general market conditions.
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should assumptions underlying the forward-
looking statements prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as intended,
4
planned, anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. Although Offshore Designs and SCD Capital have
attempted to identify important risks, uncertainties and factors which could cause actual results to differ
materially, there may be others that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended and such
changes could be material. Offshore Designs and SCD Capital do not intend, and do not assume any obligation,
to update the forward-looking statements except as otherwise required by applicable law.
Completion of the Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to
Exchange acceptance and, if applicable pursuant to Exchange requirements, majority of the minority
shareholder approval. Where applicable, the Proposed Transaction cannot close until the required shareholder
approval is obtained. There can be no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will be completed as proposed
or at all.
Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the filing statement to be prepared in connection with the
Proposed Transaction, any information released or received with respect to the Proposed Transaction may not
be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of SCD Capital should be
considered highly speculative.
