FULL YEAR 2021 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS

Set a fifth consecutive Company annual record for employee and contractor safety, achieving a Total Recordable Incident Rate of 0.40. Over 600,000 man-hours were completed on the Cedar Creek Anticline (“CCA”) CO2 pipeline and EOR project without a recordable safety incident.
Completed the 105-mile CCA CO2 pipeline ahead of schedule and under budget, which made Denbury the largest operator of CO2 pipelines in the U.S. by mileage.
Received third-party verification of the negative Carbon Intensity (“CI”) of Denbury’s blue oil production at the West Hastings and Bell Creek CO2 floods, resulting in a CI score ranging between -40 to -20 grams of CO2 equivalent emitted per megajoule of energy.
Acquired the Big Sand Draw and Beaver Creek EOR fields in Wyoming, including surface facilities and a 46-mile CO2 transportation pipeline.
Divested non-producing surface acreage in the Houston area for $15 million, and sold undeveloped deep mineral rights in Wyoming for $18 million.
Generated more than $55 million of free cash flow(1) (a non-GAAP measure).
(1)    A non-GAAP measure. See accompanying schedules that reconcile GAAP to non-GAAP measures along with a statement indicating why the Company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information for investors.
(2)    Calculated using weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 55.1 million and 53.8 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

1


Invested $252 million of development capital, at the low end of the Company’s original development capital guidance range.
Reduced the Company’s total debt by $103 million over the last year, and exited 2021 with $532 million of financial liquidity (cash on hand and borrowing capacity under the Company’s existing credit facility).

2021 CCUS HIGHLIGHTS

Established the Denbury Carbon Solutions team to drive the Company’s CCUS strategy.
Executed a term sheet with Mitsubishi Corporation for the transport and storage of CO2 captured from Mitsubishi’s proposed ammonia project along the U.S. Gulf Coast. The agreement covers a 20-year period, and Mitsubishi’s project is targeted to produce associated CO2 emissions of approximately 1.8 million metric tons per year, beginning in the latter half of the decade.
Commenced a joint evaluation with Mitsui E&P USA LLC of potential opportunities across the U.S. Gulf Coast to develop carbon-negative oil assets utilizing industrial-sourced CO2. As part of the evaluation, the parties seek to jointly pursue CO2 offtake opportunities from Mitsui’s potential projects along the Gulf Coast.
Announced joint development of a Texas Gulf Coast sequestration site with Gulf Coast Midstream Partners, with the potential to store up to 400 million metric tons of CO2. The EPA Class VI permitting process has been initiated and sequestration is estimated to be available by early 2025.

EXECUTIVE COMMENT

Chris Kendall, Denbury’s President and CEO, commented, “I am incredibly proud of our dedicated employees’ achievements throughout 2021 despite many challenges, including the ongoing pandemic and its impacts. First and foremost, we set another record on safety performance, the top priority for me and the entire Denbury leadership team. We further established the framework upon which we will execute our CCUS vision, placing Denbury as the leader in this evolving industry. Within our core operations, we completed the CCA CO2 pipeline project on time and under budget, and I thank our employees and contractors for their exceptional efforts in achieving this great outcome. We successfully initiated the CCA CO2 flood which we expect will be one of the largest CO2 floods in the world, and I’m pleased to share that we started Phase 1 injection early this month. This important milestone will greatly enhance our EOR business and increase Denbury’s production of carbon negative blue oil, which we believe will become a highly desired commodity. Further and importantly, our strong EOR business will provide significant cash flow with which to fund our CCUS investments.

2


As we enter 2022, we are extremely excited about what lies ahead for Denbury. Our expansive CO2 pipeline network and proven track record in all aspects of CO2 transportation and injection positions Denbury as the ideal partner to provide CCUS solutions. We demonstrate our expertise continuously by safely transporting and injecting the nearly ten thousand tons of CO2 we receive daily from our industrial partners into underground formations. We built on these strengths in 2021 with the execution and establishment of several new CCUS agreements that further set the stage for even greater success in our CCUS operations. My aspiration is that all of Denbury’s existing and future CCUS customers will recognize Denbury as the experienced and accountable partner upon whom they can rely to safely handle their captured CO2 for decades to come.”

FOURTH QUARTER 2021 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS

Denbury’s fourth quarter 2021 total revenues and other income totaled $362 million, a five percent increase over third quarter 2021 levels, driven primarily by an improvement in underlying commodity prices and improved oil price differentials. The Company’s fourth quarter 2021 average pre-hedge realized oil price was $75.68 per barrel (“Bbl”), which was $1.22 per Bbl below NYMEX WTI oil prices. Denbury’s average differential improved more than 50 cents per Bbl from the third quarter of 2021 as values for the Company’s Gulf Coast and Rocky Mountain region sales volumes both improved relative to WTI.

Oil and natural gas sales volumes averaged 48,882 BOE/d during the fourth quarter of 2021, down modestly from the third quarter of 2021 and lower than expectations primarily as a result of unplanned downtime in December. In addition, lower volumes at CCA were attributed to increased oil prices and profitability resulting in more volumes allocated to the third-party net profits interest in that field. Oil represented 97% of the Company’s fourth quarter 2021 volumes, with 25% of the Company’s oil produced through the injection of industrial-sourced CO2, resulting in carbon-negative blue oil.

Lease operating expense in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $116 million, or $25.75 per BOE, consistent with the Company’s expectation. The slight increase on a per BOE basis from the third quarter 2021 was primarily related to higher commodity prices as higher oil prices increase the Company’s CO2 costs and higher natural gas prices increase power expenses. Transportation and marketing expenses for the quarter totaled $7 million, consistent with the third quarter of 2021 and reflecting improved contractual arrangements for certain of the Company’s Rocky Mountain region oil volumes.

General and administrative expenses were $16 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, in line with expectations and relatively consistent with the third quarter of the year. Depletion, depreciation, and
3


amortization (“DD&A”) expense was $37 million during the fourth quarter of 2021, or $8.25 per BOE, essentially flat with the third quarter of the year.

Commodity derivatives expense totaled $23 million in the final quarter of 2021, comprised of cash payments on hedges that settled in the quarter of $98 million, offset by a $75 million non-cash gain representing mark-to-market changes in the value of the Company’s hedging portfolio. The Company’s effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2021 was negligible, as virtually all of the tax expense/benefit generated is currently fully offset by a change in valuation allowance on its federal and state deferred tax assets.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Fourth quarter 2021 development capital expenditures totaled $78 million, bringing full-year 2021 capital expenditures to a total of $252 million, close to the low end of the Company’s original annual guidance range of $250 million to $270 million. Nearly 60% of the fourth quarter total was dedicated to the CCA EOR project, including the completion of the 105-mile CO2 pipeline from Bell Creek to CCA, the booster station install, and the infield distribution system to prepare for CO2 injection. The CCA CO2 Pipeline was completed ahead of schedule and under budget. Line fill of CO2 was also completed in 2021, and CO2 injection into the Cedar Hills South and East Lookout Butte fields commenced in early February 2022. Tertiary oil production response is anticipated in the second half of 2023.

2021 PROVED RESERVES

The Company’s total estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves as of December 31, 2021, were 192 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMBOE), consisting of 189 million barrels of crude oil and 17 billion cubic feet of natural gas. Proved reserves increased by 49 MMBOE during 2021, primarily resulting from increased commodity pricing utilized in determining economic reserves. As of the end of 2021, 95% of proved reserves were proved developed.

Year-end 2021 estimated proved reserves and the discounted net present value of Denbury’s proved reserves, using a 10% per annum discount rate (“PV-10 Value”)(1) (a non-GAAP measure), were computed using first-day-of-the-month 12-month average prices of $66.56 per Bbl for oil (based on NYMEX prices) and $3.60 per million British thermal unit (“MMBtu”) for natural gas (based on Henry Hub cash prices), adjusted for prices received at the field.  Comparative prices for 2020 were $39.57 per Bbl of oil and $1.99 per MMBtu for natural gas, adjusted for prices received at the field. The PV-10 Value(1) of Denbury’s proved reserves was $2.7 billion at December 31, 2021, compared to $0.7 billion at December 31, 2020.
(1)    A non-GAAP measure. See accompanying schedules that reconcile GAAP to non-GAAP measures along with a statement indicating why the Company believes the non-GAAP measures provide useful information for investors.

Denbury’s estimated proved CO2 reserves at year-end 2021 were 5.5 trillion cubic feet (“Tcf”), including 4.5 Tcf at Jackson Dome in Mississippi (on a gross basis) and 1.0 Tcf at LaBarge Field in Wyoming (overriding royalty interest). Total CO2 reserves reflected a slight reduction from year-end 2020 due to 2021 production.

CONFERENCE CALL AND WEBCAST INFORMATION

Denbury management will host a conference call to review and discuss fourth quarter and full-year 2021 financial and operating results, as well as its outlook for 2022, today, Thursday, February 24, at 11:00 a.m. Central Time (12:00 p.m. Eastern Time). Additionally, Denbury will post supporting materials on its website before market open today.

Denbury is an independent energy company with operations and assets focused on Carbon Capture, Use, and Storage (CCUS) and Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) in the Gulf Coast and Rocky Mountain regions. For over two decades, the Company has maintained a unique strategic focus on utilizing CO2 in its EOR operations and since 2012 has also been active in CCUS through the injection of captured industrial-sourced CO2. The Company currently injects over three million tons of captured industrial-sourced CO2 annually, and its objective is to fully offset its Scope 1, 2, and 3 CO2 emissions within this decade, primarily through increasing the amount of captured industrial-sourced CO2 used in its operations.

(1)Combined results for the year ended December 31, 2020 are provided for illustrative purposes and are derived from the financial statement line items from the Successor and Predecessor periods. Because of the impact of various adjustments to the financial statements in connection with the application of fresh start accounting, including asset valuation adjustments and liability adjustments, certain results of operations for the Successor are not comparable to those of the Predecessor. Management believes that the combined results provide meaningful information to assist investors in understanding the Company’s financial results for the applicable period, but should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, independent results of the Predecessor and Successor periods for the year ended December 31, 2020 reported in accordance with GAAP.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

Reconciliation of net income (loss) (GAAP measure) to adjusted net income (non-GAAP measure)

Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure provided as a supplement to present an alternative net income (loss) measure which excludes expense and income items (and their related tax effects) not directly related to the Company’s ongoing operations. Management believes that adjusted net income may be helpful to investors by eliminating the impact of noncash and/or special items not indicative of the Company’s performance from period to period, and is widely used by the investment community, while also being used by management, in evaluating the comparability of the Company’s ongoing operational results and trends. Adjusted net income should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) or any other measure reported in accordance with GAAP, but rather to provide additional information useful in evaluating the Company’s operational trends and performance.

The year ended December 31, 2021 was further impacted by $7.0 million gain on land sales, slightly offset by $0.3 million write-off of trade receivables. The year ended December 31, 2020 was further impacted by $5.9 million gain on land sales, offset by $4.2 million write-off of trade receivables, $3.8 million of expense associated with Delta-Tinsley CO2 pipeline repairs and $1.6 million of expense associated with the APMTG helium supply contract ruling.
(12)The estimated income tax impacts on adjustments to net income (loss) for the Predecessor period is generally computed based upon a statutory rate of 25% applied to income before tax, which incorporates discrete tax adjustments primarily comprised of the tax effect of the ceiling test and accelerated depreciation, impacts of the CARES Act, valuation allowances, and the periodic tax impacts of a shortfall (benefit) on the stock-based compensation deduction.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

Reconciliation of net income (loss) (GAAP measure) to Adjusted EBITDAX (non-GAAP measure)

Adjusted EBITDAX is a non-GAAP financial measure which management uses and is calculated based upon (but not identical to) a financial covenant related to “Consolidated EBITDAX” in the Company’s senior secured bank credit facility, which excludes certain items that are included in net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Items excluded include interest, income taxes, depletion, depreciation, and amortization, and items that the Company believes affect the comparability of operating results such as items whose timing and/or amount cannot be reasonably estimated or are non-recurring. Management believes Adjusted EBITDAX may be helpful to investors in order to assess the Company’s operating performance as compared to that of other companies in its industry, without regard to financing methods, capital structure or historical costs basis. It is also commonly used by third parties to assess leverage and the Company’s ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDAX should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, net income (loss), cash flows from operations, or any other measure reported in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s Adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of another company because all companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDAX, EBITDAX, or EBITDA in the same manner.  The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

DENBURY INC.
SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

Reconciliation of cash flows from operations (GAAP measure) to adjusted cash flows from operations (non-GAAP measure) and free cash flow (non-GAAP measure)

Adjusted cash flows from operations is a non-GAAP measure that represents cash flows provided by operations before changes in assets and liabilities, as summarized from the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Adjusted cash flows from operations measures the cash flows earned or incurred from operating activities without regard to the collection or payment of associated receivables or payables. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that represents adjusted cash flows from operations less reorganization items settled in cash, interest treated as debt reduction, development capital expenditures and capitalized interest, but before acquisitions. Management believes that it is important to consider these additional measures, along with cash flows from operations, as it believes the non-GAAP measures can often be a better way to discuss changes in operating trends in its business caused by changes in sales volumes, prices, operating costs and related factors, without regard to whether the earned or incurred item was collected or paid during that period. Adjusted cash flows from operations and free cash flow are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to cash flows from operations, investing, or financing activities, nor as a liquidity measure or indicator of cash flows.

SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE (UNAUDITED)

Reconciliation of the standardized measure of discounted estimated future net cash flows after income taxes (GAAP measure) to PV-10 Value (non-GAAP measure)

PV-10 Value is a non-GAAP measure and is different from the Standardized Measure in that PV-10 Value is a pre-tax number and the Standardized Measure is an after-tax number.  Denbury’s 2021 and 2020 year-end estimated proved oil and natural gas reserves and proved CO2 reserves quantities were prepared by the independent reservoir engineering firm of DeGolyer and MacNaughton. The information used to calculate PV-10 Value is derived directly from data determined in accordance with FASC Topic 932.  Management believes PV-10 Value is a useful supplemental disclosure to the Standardized Measure because the Standardized Measure can be impacted by a company’s unique tax situation, and it is not practical to calculate the Standardized Measure on a property-by-property basis.  Because of this, PV-10 Value is a widely used measure within the industry and is commonly used by securities analysts, banks and credit rating agencies to evaluate the estimated future net cash flows from proved reserves on a comparative basis across companies or specific properties.  PV-10 Value is commonly used by management and others in the industry to evaluate properties that are bought and sold, to assess the potential return on investment in the Company’s oil and natural gas properties, and to perform impairment testing of oil and natural gas properties. PV-10 Value is not a measure of financial or operating performance under GAAP, nor should it be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Standardized Measure.  PV-10 Value and the Standardized Measure do not purport to represent the fair value of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves.

News Release
Denbury Announces 2022 Capital Plan and Production Guidance, Focused on Progressing Strategic EOR and CCUS Initiatives

PLANO, Texas – February 24, 2022 – Denbury Inc. (NYSE: DEN) (“Denbury” or “the Company”) today announced its 2022 capital budget range for oil and natural gas development expenditures of $290 million to $320 million; at the midpoint comprised of $115 million for continuation of the Cedar Creek Anticline (“CCA”) EOR development and $190 million for other tertiary and non-tertiary oil-focused development projects, capitalized internal costs and CO2 sources and pipelines. This compares to total oil and natural gas development expenditures of $252 million in 2021, of which $123 million was invested in the CCA EOR development and $129 million in other tertiary and non-tertiary oil-focused development projects, capitalized internal costs and CO2 sources and pipelines. In addition to oil and natural gas development capital, the Company currently anticipates 2022 expenditures of approximately $50 million in connection with its strategic carbon capture, utilization, and storage (“CCUS”) initiatives, which could flex higher based on the progress and timing of various CCUS agreements, including the development of new sequestration sites.

Chris Kendall, Denbury’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our 2022 capital program is designed to invest in our current operations at a sustaining level for the first time in several years, to continue the development of our cornerstone CCA EOR project, and to make strategic investments that further advance our leadership in CCUS. Based on our current oil price expectations, we anticipate accomplishing these three objectives while generating significant free cash flow, which will further strengthen our Company for transformational growth in CCUS.”

Denbury completed the 105-mile CCA CO2 Pipeline from the Bell Creek field to CCA in 2021. CCA EOR investment in 2022 totals an estimated $115 million, primarily consisting of the construction of field CO2 recycle facilities and infrastructure, capitalized Phase 1 CO2 costs, and the implementation of a development pilot in the Interlake formation. Based on the strong progress of the CCA project to date, certain of the 2022 CCA investments have been accelerated from initial plan. The cost of the CO2 injected into Phase 1 prior to tertiary production will be capitalized and is anticipated at $25 million in 2022. After tertiary production commences, expected in the second half of 2023, the cost of injected CO2 will be treated as lease operating expense.

Excluding the CCA EOR development, 2022 planned oil and natural gas capital expenditures total $190 million, an increase of more than 45 percent from 2021 and 125 percent from 2020. The Company has
1


previously disclosed its estimated capital level to sustain production roughly flat year on year as ranging between $175 million to $200 million, currently estimated to be on the higher end of that range based on prevailing market conditions.

2022 tertiary development, excluding CCA, includes investments in the Heidelberg, Cranfield, and Soso fields in Mississippi and Oyster Bayou in Texas, amongst others. Non-tertiary development investments include projects at the Webster and Thompson fields in Texas as well as in the CCA waterflood areas in Montana.

The Company’s anticipated CCUS capital expenditures for 2022 of approximately $50 million is expected to be primarily directed toward acquiring, testing and Class VI permitting of multiple sequestration sites, including seismic and stratigraphic test wells. In addition, Denbury may make equity investments in certain CCUS partnerships to drive additional value in new project areas.

Sales volumes for 2022 are anticipated to range between 46,000 and 49,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day, with 97 to 98 percent of the volumes expected to be oil. The midpoint of the 2022 range is down slightly from 2021 primarily due to underinvestment in 2020 and 2021. 2022 sales volumes are anticipated to build through the year.

Detailed guidance is included in the Company’s supplemental materials which will be posted to the Denbury website before market open today.

News Release
Denbury Provides CCUS Update, Including 2022 Goals and Multiple New Agreements

PLANO, Texas – February 24, 2022 – Denbury Inc. (NYSE: DEN) (“Denbury” or “the Company”) today provided an update on the continued growth of Denbury Carbon Solutions, its carbon capture, utilization, and storage (“CCUS”) business, including established 2022 goals and multiple new agreements for CO2 transportation, utilization and storage services.

The Company’s 2022 goals for Denbury Carbon Solutions that will further advance the Company’s vision of leading the energy transition with world-class carbon solutions include:

Reach agreements for transportation and storage of captured industrial CO2 emissions totaling in excess of a cumulative 10 million metric tons of CO2 per year (mmtpa);
Secure CO2 sequestration sites in strategic locations with an aggregate storage potential of at least 1.2 billion tons of CO2; and
Progress pre-development activities on multiple potential sequestration sites, with Class VI permitting processes commenced during 2022.

The above volumetric targets are inclusive of all prior agreements announced, including those executed in 2021 and thus far in 2022.

Chris Kendall, Denbury’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Following a year of tremendous progress and strong execution across our business, I believe that 2022 will be a year of significant transformation for our Company as we rapidly advance the commercialization of our CCUS business. We’ve established aggressive but achievable 2022 goals for our CCUS business related to long-term CO2 transportation and storage agreements as well as the development of large-scale permanent sequestration fields and facilities. With the agreements announced in 2022 to date, we are off to a great start. Our mission in CCUS is to provide the industry’s most extensive and reliable CO2 transportation and storage service network, leveraging our existing pipeline system, sub-surface expertise, EOR assets and over two decades of experience with CO2. Importantly, in our existing Gulf Coast enhanced oil recovery business, we can inject upwards of 10 million tons of captured industrial CO2 per year, under existing permits and regulations, making us the only CCUS company that can provide an integrated CO2 solution and certainty of takeaway today. We look forward to where we will take our CCUS business in 2022.”



2022 SEQUESTRATION SITE AGREEMENTS
Denbury has signed a definitive agreement with a large landowner to lease a substantial pore space position just east of Donaldsonville, Louisiana, with an estimated sequestration capacity of more than 150 million metric tons of CO2. The sequestration site is less than 10 miles from the Company’ Green Pipeline, with excellent geologic characteristics supporting high CO2 injectivity and extensive sealing formations. First injection at the site is targeted as early as 2025. The site is in close proximity to one of the highest geographic concentrations of industrial CO2 emissions in the U.S.
The Company previously announced that it signed a definitive agreement for the exclusive rights to develop a CO2 sequestration site near Mobile, Alabama. Denbury estimates the total CO2 storage potential of this site to be over 300 million metric tons. This site is anticipated to initially anchor development of a CO2 sequestration hub in the Mobile Bay area targeting existing and newbuild projects. The Company estimates that the site could be ready to receive CO2 injection by 2026. Depending on the pace and scale of regional CCUS development, Denbury may consider expanding its Gulf Coast CO2 pipeline network to connect to this site.

The cumulative CO2 sequestration potential secured by Denbury currently totals more than 850 million metric tons.

2022 TRANSPORTATION, STORAGE & UTILIZATION AGREEMENTS
The Company executed a term sheet for the transportation and storage of CO2 from an existing chemicals plant located in Louisiana, less than 15 miles from the Company’s Green Pipeline. The agreement covers a 12-year timeframe, commencing as early as 2025, and provides for an additional extension period subject to mutual agreement by both parties. Annual CO2 volumes are estimated to be 0.4 mmtpa, and Denbury is provided flexibility under the agreement to utilize the CO2 in either enhanced oil recovery or direct sequestration.
Denbury also executed a term sheet with a developer that intends to build a hydrogen plant in Wyoming within 5 miles of Denbury’s pipeline infrastructure in the Rocky Mountains. Volumes of CO2 are anticipated to commence at 0.1 mmtpa as early as 2024, growing to more than 1 mmtpa over a multi-year period. The agreement is for 20 years with options to extend. Denbury currently plans to utilize this CO2 in its enhanced oil recovery operations.
The Company announced that it has entered into a strategic alliance with clean fuels innovator Infinium to collaborate on developing ultra-low carbon fuels projects in Brazoria County, Texas. Infinium electrofuels are a direct replacement for traditional jet fuel and diesel. The electrofuels facilities in Texas will convert renewable power into ‘green’ hydrogen and combine it with



industrial-sourced CO2 to produce ultra-low carbon transport fuels. Under the arrangement, Denbury will source and transport captured industrial CO2 to the Infinium facilities, which are planned to be sited in close proximity to Denbury’s existing and planned CO2 pipeline infrastructure, beginning as early as 2025. The Infinium facilities are anticipated to utilize up to 1.5 million tons of CO2 per year. Denbury has an equity investment option in the projects.

Denbury’s cumulative CO2 transportation, storage and utilization agreements currently cover approximately 5 million metric tons of CO2 per year.

Nik Wood, Senior Vice President, CCUS, stated, “Today’s announcements demonstrate great progress in advancing Denbury’s CCUS business toward significant value creation. With our 20+ years of experience in moving and injecting CO2, our 1,300+ mile CO2 pipeline system, and multiple potential sequestration sites in very close proximity to our infrastructure, Denbury is positioned extremely well to lead the industry in decarbonizing our world by safely and economically transporting and storing significant volumes of industrial-sourced CO2.”
