MANAGEMENTŇS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY

August 29, 2023 - The following Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A" ) of financial condition and results of operations for Klimat X Developments Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Klimat X" or the "Company" which includes references to "we" , "our", "us", "its"), is a review of the operations, current financial position and condition for the period ended June 30, 2023 and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This MD&A contains forward-looking statements and introduces financial measures which are not defined under IFRS aimed at helping the reader in making comparisons to metrics sim ilarly disclosed by industry peers. Readers are cautioned that the MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Company's disclosure under "Non-GAAP Measures" and "Forward-Looking Information" included at the end of this MD&A.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Klimat X, headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, is a carbon exploration and development company with global reach into jurisdictions with the highest production potential from forestry and marine carbon sequestration projects.

The Company's focus is on mobilizing investment dollars to develop nature-based solutions on an unprecedented scale drawing on the experience of some of the most senior executives in the mining and resource sectors and emerging market leaders.

Klimat X is in the bus ines s of developing validated and verified carbon credits from afforestation and reforestation of degraded land areas and marine ecosystems, including m angroves, for sale into international voluntary carbon markets. In contrast to streaming and royalty com panies, Klimat X works upstream as a direct owner and operator of projects, addressing a key supply constraint in the current market and the rapidly growing demand for carbon credits in global voluntary and regulated markets. Klimat X 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 s tatus 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 agreem ents) with large landowners and governm ents in various suitable jurisdictions around the world. Klimat X secures pre -purchase and offtake agreements with funds, comm odity traders, and large final emitters to finance the developm ent of Nature Based Solutions.

Klimat X was incorporated under the British Columbia Companies Act as a Specialty Lim ited Company on November 21, 1963. In July 1998, the Company continued to the Cayman Is lands. In February 2018, the Company continued back to British Colum bia. Prior to the COB (as defined below), the Company's principal business activities historically included acquiring options to explore and develop mineral properties, internationally. From a period beginning in 2003 and ending on closing date of the COB (as defined below), the Company was inactive with limited operations, and its common shares ("Common Shares") were listed on the NEX board of the TSXV ("NEX") under the symbol "ERL.H".

CARBON STREAMING CONTRACTS

Sierra Leone Transaction

On June 29, 2022, Klimat X acquired an assignment of a minimum of 51% of the carbon credits to be generated by the operations of Rewilding Maforki Ltd. ("RML") in Sierra Leone, pursuant to agreements entered into by the Com pany on February 25, 2022, in consideration for 7,500,000 Common Shares issued at a far value of $0.14 per share ("RML Consideration Shares") for consideration in the am ount of $1,050,000 (the "Sierra Leone COB Agreement") and the prepayment agreem ent between Klimat X, RML and Aristeus Projects Limited, as amended on June 24, 2022, to effect the transaction ("Sierra Leone Transaction") and provide for the Advance ("Sierra Leone Prepayment Agreement") to Aristeus Projects Lim ited.

  • Sierra Leone project team has completed the first 400 hectares of reforestation in the Maforki Kingdom of Sierra Leone. Planting activity started in July 2022 with the completion of the relisting of the company and this is a major accomplishm ent. This area is equivalent to almost 750 soccer pitches. Over the lifespan of the project, this area will produce up to 200,000 tonnes of carbon credits. A very significant ramp up in planting activity in 2023, which also generates significant econom ic and employment benefits to local rural comm unities. The company takes a world-leading approach to securing consent over the planting activities and to econom ic benefit sharing.

  • The company has established a nursery and sourced s eedlings to plant 1000 ha during the summ er of 2023 and has completed 400 ha YTD.

  • Klimat X has secured rights to almost 60,000 hectares of reforestation in the country of Sierra Leone and is also developing a large-scale programme for protecting and res toring degraded mangrove areas along the coastline covering tens of thousands of hectares. The company has completed extensive feasibility work in the mangrove areas for both conservation and restoration projects.

  • The com pany is also active in the State of Yucatan and in Guyana and is making very strong progress in new project developm ent across all jurisdictions.

  • Klimat X received a feasibility study confirming scope of Sierra Leone project with near term goal of securing further land and carbon rights of 75-100,000 hectares;

  • Accelerated activity and focus on the State of Yucatan, Mexico project includes reforestation of up to 25,000 hectares of degraded mangrove with local partners Compañía Mexicana de Captación de Carbono (CMCC) within a 100,000ha area that could also generate conservation credits.

During the period ended June 30, 2023, the Com pany incurred a net loss of $2.2M (2022 - $1.3M). When compared to prior period, the current period's losses were significantly higher largely due to increased business and operational activities during the current period. More specifically, the following contributed to the movem ents noted:

  • i) Marketing expense was $299K in the current period vs. $4K in the prior period This increase was the result of the increased efforts to build awareness of the Company after the COB. In the prior period, there was very little marketing efforts as the Company was just a shell company.
  • ii) Office and administrative expenses were $252K in the current period vs. $14K in the prior period. This increase is due to significantly more transactions and business activities in the current period resulting from the COB in June 2022 when the Company was just a shell company.
  • iii) The Com pany recorded finance costs of $102K in the current period vs. finance income of $14K in the prior period. This is predominantly due to higher lease accretion during the period.
  • iv) Foreign exchange loss was $41K vs. $nil in the prior period. This is due to multiple transactions with foreign jurisdictions, giving rise to the foreign exchange loss, as well as interest bearing liabilities, which were assumed after Q1 2022.

Q2 2023 in comparison to Q1 2023

The increase in net loss compared to Q1 2023 can be attributable to higher expenses incurred towards office and administration, as well as professional fees. This is due to the overall increased business activities carried out during the current period. Total assets decreased in the current period mainly due to fluctuations in the cash and cash equivalents balance, which is driven by funds received from private placements. There has been no financing activity in the current period, thus resulting in a drop in the cash balance.

Q2 2023 in comparison to Q4 2022, Q3 2022, Q2 2022 and Q1, 2022

The Com pany continues to run a net loss in the current quarter as the Com pany has continued to incur expenses growing our global carbon presence. The major contributors to this are consulting and professional fees. Prior to Q3 2022, the Guyana coconut operation did not exist. As such, there are no revenues during Q2 2022. Total assets in Q2 2022 were the result of the capital raise however the funds were still in escrow until the COB occurred. Total assets in Q2 2022 were the result of the COB being approved by the TSX-V and the multiple acquis itions that occurred. The significant decrease in total assets from Q2 2022 to Q2 2023 was the finalization of the purchase price allocation and the consideration value paid for the assets. Working capital following the COB has slowly declined as the Company has deployed the capital it had raised on various initiatives in the global carbon space as we continue to develop our business.

Q2 2023 in comparison to Q4 2021 and all prior quarters presented

Prior to Q1 2022 the Company operated as a shell company. The Company had cash from equity financings and incurred general corporate overhead costs. There were no operations prior to the COB.

In Q2 2023 the Company incurred significantly higher consulting and professional fee expenses driving a much higher net loss. The Total assets were significantly higher as a result of a large equity financing as

well as several share acquisitions. Non-current debt in the current quarter is associated with the long term PTHL land lease.

(718,351) June 30,7,837,232 (1,691,595)

As at June 30, 2023, the Company's working capital deficiency was $(718K) (December 31, 2022 – $1.8M surplus). The decrease was the result additional expenses being paid with no additional financing that occurred in the current period.

Cash flow used in operating activities in the current three -month period was $395K vs. $805K in 2022. The significant decrease in cash flow used in operating activities from 2023 to 2022 was predominantly the result of the increase in non-cash operating working capital changes related to prepaids and accounts payable .

Cash flow used in investing activities during the current three -month period was $323K vs. 588K in 2022. The decrease is due to less investing activities in the current period relating to advances to the Sierra Leone project.

Cash flows from financing activities in the current year were $nil. The $9.2M in cash flows in 2022 were from a private placement.

The Company's strategy is to carry a capital base to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future developm ent of the business. The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Com pany's ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the developm ent of any identified bus iness opportunities and to maintain a flexible capital structure for the benefit of its stakeholders.

Klimat X considers its capital structure to include working capital, debt, lease liabilities and shareholders' equity (deficit). The Com pany manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in the econom ic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, enter into joint venture arrangements, acquire or dispose of assets and adjust capital and operating expenditures to manage its current and projected available capital.

The com pany anticipated incurring $89K more in expenses associated with the transaction that actually incurred.

RISK ASSESSMENT

There are a num ber of risks facing Klimat X. Some of the risks are common to all businesse s while others are specific to the sector within which Klimat X operates.

Many of these risks are outside of the Company's control. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks that the Company faces. Additional risks and uncertainties, including those of which management is not currently aware of or which are currently deem ed immaterial, may adversely affect the Company. Any of these factors, either alone or taken together, could have a material adverse effect on the Company and could change whether any forward-looking statements are ultimately realized.

These risks cannot be eliminated, however, Klimat X's management is committed to proactively monitoring, and where possible, mitigating risk. Iss ues affecting, or with the potential to affect, the Company's assets, operations and/or reputation, are generally of a strategic nature or are em erging issues that can be identified early and then managed, but occasionally include unforeseen issues that arise unexpectedly and m ust be managed on an urgent basis. Klimat X takes a proactive approach to the identification and management of issues that may affect the Com pany's assets, operations and/or reputation and has establis hed cons istent and clear policies, procedures, guidelines and responsibilities for issue identification, management and mitigation.

The general and specific risks to which the Company is exposed to as well as the business risks with regards to the COB as described in the "Change of Business Transaction and Reactivation of Listing" section is summarized in the "Risk Factors" section below and should be read in conjunction with the detailed "Risk Factors" s ection in the Com pany's Filing Statement (In respect of the Change of Business Transaction of Earl Resources Lim ited pursuant to Policy 5.2 of the TSX Venture Exchange ) dated as of June 8, 2022 and available under the Com pany's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com.

RISK FACTORS

Klimat X is subject to various risks and investment in its publicly traded Common Shares should be considered highly speculative. The Com pany considers the following material ris k factors in addition to those outlined or otherwis e referred to below, related to both its own operations and that of its subsidiary PTHL. If any of the following risks or uncertainties occur, Klimat X's bus iness, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected and the trading price of Klimat X's securities could decline.

Additional Funding

Depending on future exploration, development, acquisition and divestiture plans, the Klimat X may require additional financing. In particular, the current projects of the Klimat X are capital intensive and may never

be able to realize any revenue or profits until considerable additional financing has been arranged to bring such projects into a pos ition where they are able to validate and verify carbon credits.

Klimat X's Managem ent Team may not be Successful in implem enting its Business Strategy

There can be no assurance that the Klimat X's management team will be succes sful in implementing its strategy or that forecasted results will be realized going forward. The management team may experience difficulties in effecting key strategic goals such as growth and investment top tier assets and the development of exploration projects. The performance of the Klimat X's operations could be adversely affected if the Klimat X's management team cannot im plem ent the stated business strategy effectively.

Market opportunity estimates and growth strategies are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estim ates that may not prove to be accurate and may not be indicative of future growth. Since the growth in demand for carbon credits from large voluntary market Klimat X is relatively new, the trend may not gain wider acceptance, or experience widespread growth, as anticipated.

While the Klimat X's estimates of growth are made in good faith and based on assumptions and estimates the Klimat X believes to be reasonable, the estimates may not prove to be accurate. Further, even if the estimate of market opportunity and growth strategy does prove to be accurate, the Klimat X could fail to capture a significant portion, or any portion, of the available market.

Non-Operated Risk of Significant Assets

The assets not operated by the Klimat X in which the Klimat X has a 65% ownership interest in, and the majority of near-term future revenues are attributed to that asset. As a result, the Klimat X may not have the ability to manage development of the assets on a pace that the Klimat X would choose. Further, managing the cost of developm ent is largely the responsibility of the operator of the asset. To date, the operator and the Klimat X have agre ed on the exploration and development efforts for the asset. A Joint Operating Agreement between PTHL and the Klimat X will be put in place to provide certain protections such as the right to audit the operator, the right for approval of all capital plans for the block and the approval of an annual capital and operating budget.

Projects

The Klimat X's ability to produce, sustain or increase levels of carbon credit production is dependent in part on the success of its projects. There are many risks and unknowns inherent in all projects. For example, the economic feasibility of projects is based upon many factors, including:

  • the accuracy of carbon credit reserve estimates;
  • carbon recoveries with res pect to Klimat X projects;
  • capital and operating costs of such projects;
  • the timetables for the cons truction, comm issioning and ramp-up of such projects and any delays or interruptions;
  • the accuracy of engineering and technical specification and changes in scope;
  • the ability to manage large -scale construction;
  • the future prices of the carbon credits; and
  • the ability to secure appropriate financing to develop s uch projects.

The Klimat X's ability to maintain its license to operate in all of the jurisdictions in which the Klimat X has projects is also important to the success of those projects.

Risks Inherent in an Agriculture Business

The Com pany's business involves cultivation of agricultural products. As such, the business is subject to the risks inherent in the agricultural business, including but not limited to, pests, plant diseases, crop failure and similar agricultural risks. There can be no assurance that natural elements will not have a material adverse effect on the volume, quality and cons istency of the Company's agriculture products, and of agricultural products processed from the projects, and consequently on the Company's sales, profitability and financial condition.

Environm ental and Other Regulatory Requirements

The current or future operations of the Com pany, including development activities and production within the project areas, may require permits from various governmental authorities and such operations are and may be subject to laws and regulations governing growing, cultivation and similar activities. There can be no assurance that the Com pany will be able to obtain or maintain all approvals and permits that may be required to develop or operate the projects on terms which enable operations to be conducted at econom ically justifiable cos ts. In particular, there can be no assurance that the Company will receive the Government Consent (as defined above) required for the Yucatan Contract.

The Company Relies on International Advis ors and Consultants in Order to Keep Abreast of Material Legal, Regulatory and Governm ent Developm ents that Impact its Business and Operations in the Juris dictions in which it Operates.

The legal and regulatory requirem ents in the foreign countries in which the Com pany operates, as well as local business culture and practices are different from those in Canada. The Company's officers and directors must rely, to a great extent, on local legal counsel and consultants in order to keep abreast of material legal, regulatory and governmental developments as they pertain to and affect the Com pany's business operations, and to assist with governmental relations. The Company m ust rely, to some extent, on those m embers of management and the board of directors who have previous expe rience working and conducting business in these countries, if any, in order to enhance its understanding of and appreciation for the local business culture and practices. The Com pany also relies on the advice of local experts and professionals in connection with current and new regulations that develop in respect of the cultivation and sale of carbon credits as well as in respect of banking, financing, labour, litigation and tax matters in these jurisdictions. Any developments or changes in such legal, regulatory or governmental requirements or in local business practices are beyond its control. The im pact of any such changes may adversely affect the Company's business.

Risks Specific to Foreign Subsidiary PTHL

A significant portion of the Klimat X's business is carried on through a foreign subs idiary, PTHL. Accordingly, any limitation on the transfer of cash or other assets between the parent corporation and this entity, could restrict the Klimat X's ability to fund its operations efficiently. Any such lim itations, or the perception that such lim itations may exist now or in the future, could have an adverse impact on the Klimat X's valuation and stock price. The performance of PTHL can be impacted by many factors:

• Risk operating in Guyana

• Risk to war

  • Coconut market risk

  • Climate risk

  • Labor costs • Risk of theft

Risks Specific to PTHL's Operations

Harvesting, processing, and development activities depend, to one degree or another, on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, bridges, power sources, and water supply are im portant determinants, which affect capital and operating costs. Unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage, governm ent, or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure could adversely affect PTHL's operations, financial condition, and results of operations. Operating risks include but are not limited to the following:

  • Energy Prices

  • Supply and Demand Im balances

  • Other Environm ental Factors

  • Other Agricultural Risk

  • Coconut Disease

  • Biological pests (bugs, fungus)

The risks referred to herein are not the only risks and uncertainties that Klimat X faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or that the Company currently considers immaterial may also im pair its busines s operations. These risk factors could materially affect the Com pany's future operating results and could cause actual events to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements relating to the Company.

FINANCIAL RISKS

Klimat X defines financial risk as the risk of loss or los t opportunity res ulting from financial management and market conditions that could have a positive or negative impact on the Com pany's cash flows.

Financial risk management

Klimat X's activities expose it to certain financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The following table summarizes the Company's financial instruments as of June 30, 2023 and Decem ber 31, 2022:

June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
$ $
Financial Assets
Am ortized cost:
Cash 627,155 2,318,750
Accounts receivable 152,055 75,303
Financial Liabilities
Amortized cost:
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 1,496,815 787,259
Convertible debenture 341,307 296,969

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market conditions, such as interest rates and foreign exchange rates will affect Klimat X's net loss or value of financial instruments.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates.

Klimat X may manage its interest expense us ing a mix of fixed and variable interest rates on its debt. Changes in interest rates could result in an increase or decrease in the amount the Company pays to service variable interest rate debt.

The interest rates on PTHL's debt loans payable are fixed and not subject to interest rate risk.

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that future cash flows or the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates.

The Company is primarily exposed to fluctuations in the U.S. dollar and Guyanese dollar in relation to its foreign operations.

Commodity price risk

The Com pany may be exposed to commodity price risk through the sale of its agricultural produce and biological assets and inventories held.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Com pany does not hold significant biological assets or inventories nor has it recognized significant revenue related to the sale of its agricultural produce.

Carbon market risk

Carbon market risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate from changes in market forces including, but not limited to, interest rates, voluntary carbon credit prices, foreign

exchange, and timing and number of anticipated carbon credit deliveries and sales. There has been no change in fair value in the year for the carbon credit as sets acquired.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a customer or counterparty to a financial asset will default, resulting in Klimat X incurring a financial loss.

The Com pany's accounts receivables are predom inantly customers and other partners who are subject to normal industry credit risks in Guyana. The Company assesses the creditworthiness of its customers on an ongoing basis as well as monitoring the amount and age of balances outstanding. Accordingly, the Company views the credit risks on these amounts as normal for the industry. The carrying amount of accounts receivable represents the maximum credit exposure on this balance.

An impairm ent analysis is performed at each reporting date us ing a provis ion matrix. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of m oney and reasonable supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions .

Based on historical default rates, the Company believes that no additional allowance for doubtful accounts provision is necessary in respect of accounts receivables.

Klimat X held cash and cash equivalents of $627,155 at June 30, 2023 which represents its maximum credit exposure on these assets (December 31, 2022 - $2,318,750). The cash is held with major, high credit- quality financial institution counterparties and m anagement believes credit risk is minimal.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that Klimat X will be unable to fulfill its obligations associated with financial liabilities on a timely basis or at a reasonable cost. The Com pany's objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient available resources to meet its liquidity requirements at any point.

The Com pany is exposed to this risk mainly in respect of its accounts payable and accrued liabilities, lease obligations and long-term debt.

Klimat X mitigates this risk through efforts to maintain the support of its lenders and through the issuance of additional capital, if required.

The Com pany has the following payments (gross amount, undiscounted) due within the period noted below:

Within 1 1-3 years 3-5 years More than 5 Total
