/THIS NEWS RELEASE IS NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES /
Klimat X Developments Inc. ("Klimat X" or the "Company") (TSXV: KLX) a leading provider of high quality carbon credits sourced exclusively from afforestation and reforestation projects developed and owned by the Company and its stakeholders, is pleased to announce that the Company has closed the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement offering (the "Offering") with the placement of 6,036,567 units (the "Units") at a price of $0.15 per Unit for a gross proceeds of $905,485.05 .
Each Unit consists of one common share (a "Share") and one Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant") with each Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Share of the Company at a price of $0.25 per Share for a period of 24 months from the date of closing of the Offering (the "Closing Date"). In the event that at any time following the date that is 4 months and one day following the Closing Date, the closing price of the Shares of the Company is at or above $0.50 per Share for a period of 5 consecutive trading days during the Warrant exercise period (with the 5th such trading day hereafter referred to as the "Eligible Acceleration Date"), the Warrant expiry date shall accelerate to the date that is 60 days after the Eligible Acceleration Date.
It is anticipated that CEO, James Tansey , Director, Neil Passmore , and Kevin Godlington , Director of Operations (the "Insiders") will each participate for a total of approximately $144,000 worth of Units in the second tranche of the Offering. The participation by the Insiders of the Company in the Offering constitutes a related party transactions within the meaning of TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). Such participation is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a), as neither the fair market value of the securities issued, nor the fair market value of the consideration for the securities issued exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization as calculated in accordance with MI 61-101. A material change report in connection with the Offering will be filed less than 21 days before the closing of the final tranche of the Offering. This shorter period was reasonable and necessary in the circumstances as the Company wished to complete the Offering in a timely manner.
Building on very strong recent progress in the expansion of the pipeline of carbon credits and strong validation from buyers of carbon credits, Klimat X intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for the expansion of the Company's operations in West Africa and Latin America , the development of a new technology platform for smallholder led restoration projects and for general working capital purposes.
The Offering is subject to certain closing conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a hold period under applicable securities laws in Canada expiring four months and one day from the closing date of the Offering. There were no finder's fees paid in connection with the Offering.

The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. Persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.
