KLIMAT X DEVELOPMENTS INC. ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF ACQUISITION OF 32,000 HECTARE REWILDING AND MANGROVE PROJECT IN SIERRA LEONE

Canada NewsWire

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/

VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 28, 2022 /CNW/ - Klimat X Developments Inc. ("Klimat X" or the "Corporation") (TSXV: KLX) is pleased to announce that, further to its press release dated August 16, 2022, it has closed the acquisition (the "Acquisition") of certain carbon credit development rights and other revenues generated through the sale of timber and other biological assets for approximately 32,000 hectares of land located in Sierra Leone (the "Assigned Rights") from Forest and Mangrove Protection Ltd. ("FMPL") pursuant to the project rights assignment agreement dated August 12, 2022 (the "Project Rights Assignment Agreement") entered into between Klimat X and FMPL.

The aggregate consideration for the Acquisition was $655,912.00 USD, paid in cash by Klimat X to FMPL as reimbursement for expenses associated acquisition of the carbon rights to the assets. No securities of Klimat X were be issued in connection with the Acquisition. The Acquisition constituted a "Reviewable Transaction" for the purposes of TSXV Policy 5.3- Acquisitions and Dispositions of Non-Cash Assets ("Policy 5.3"), as it is a "Related Party Transaction" on the basis that FMPL is wholly-owned by a director and significant shareholder of Klimat X, Mr. Kevin Godlington.

In accordance with Policy 5.3, the TSXV approved the Acquisition on September 26, 2022.

"These investments expand our reach in a country where we have very strong foundations. We have secured a much larger land area for our trailblazing rewilding programme. The addition of a large-scale mangrove project to our portfolio in Sierra Leone is extremely encouraging and we expect it will establish a strong precedent for other large-scale mangrove investments in the region" - Dr. James Tansey, Chief Executive Officer.

The Acquisition more than doubles the land area under development by the Corporation in Sierra Leone. The extension of Klimat X's reach into mangrove protection and restoration projects in Sierra Leone also represents a scale up and a potential opportunity to realize significant earlier revenues from a mangrove conservation project. Klimat X will invest in the carbon credit development costs associated with implementing a large-scale rewilding project under the relevant Verra protocol (the "Project"). Klimat X anticipates planting 400 hectares by the beginning of October, has mapping underway of the mangrove areas and has been developing nursery and planting plans. An initial feasibility study was completed in July by Silvestrum Climate Associates, who are global leaders in coastal and mangrove projects. Coastal mangroves in Sierra Leone are highly productive and can sequester 10-20 tonnes of CO2e per hectare per annum, storing significant volumes of carbon in the sediment. If validated, it is anticipated that this Project could produce millions of tonnes of high value carbon credits over the life of the Project.

The Corporation has an active pipeline of projects in Sierra Leone, Guyana and the State of Yucatan, Mexico. Projects are developed in partnership with state, national and indigenous governments through fair and transparent revenue sharing agreements.

About Klimat X

Klimat X carries on the business of developing validated and verified carbon credits from afforestation and reforestation of degraded land areas and marine ecosystems, including mangroves, for sale into international voluntary carbon markets. In contrast to streaming and royalty companies, Klimat X works upstream as a direct owner and operator of projects, addressing a key supply constraint the current market and the rapidly growing demand for carbon credits in global voluntary and regulated markets. The Corporation intends to achieve this by investing in the exploration, restoration and management of terrestrial and marine systems that can either be protected to enhance the sequestration of greenhouse gases or restored from a degraded status to fully productive ecosystems. Klimat X will draw on the experience of a senior executive team and board that provide access into key target jurisdictions through relationships in the mining and natural resources sectors, combined with decades of experience in carbon markets. Klimat X plans to deploy capital at risk under various arrangements (including cooperation, assignment and production sharing agreements) with large land owners and governments in various suitable jurisdictions around the world.
