He Chairman of the Lockwood Foundation who would later back an expedition to Isla Nublar to rescue the last remaining dinosaurs on the island before they were wiped out by an active Mt. Sibo. Though Lockwood planned for the animals to be relocated to an Island Sanctuary, the expedition was usurped by the Head of the foundation, Eli Mills. Mills had arranged for the capture and transport of the dinosaurs back to the Estate for sale by auction to fund his real agenda; the creation of the Indoraptor.
Upon discovering this Lockwood was outraged, threatening to reveal everything to the public leaving Mills with no choice but to smother the ailing man in his bed, claiming he had died in his sleep.
