Interest on this Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) shall accrue on the Principal Amount outstanding from time to time at a rate per annum computed in accordance with Section 2 hereof. This Note evidences an initial loan made by the Payee to the Company in the amount of $2,000,000 on the Issue Date pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined below), and may evidence up to an additional $1,400,000 in loans to be made by the Holder following the date hereof pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement.

This Note has been issued pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) entered into between the Company and the Payee, and is secured by a Security Agreement (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time the “Security Agreement”) covering certain collateral (the “Collateral”), and the intercreditor agreement executed in connection therewith, all as more particularly described and provided therein, and is entitled to the benefits thereof. The Security Agreement and any and all other documents executed and delivered by the Company under which Payee is granted liens, or liens are perfected, on assets of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Security Documents.” Unless otherwise defined in this Note, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

1. Principal Repayment

A. Optional Prepayment. Subject to Section 1B, at any time from and after the date on which Shareholder Approval has been obtained by the Company, the Company may prepay this Note, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part, with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

B. Notice of Prepayment. Before the Company shall be permitted to prepay this Note pursuant to 1A hereof, the Company shall provide ten (10) Business Days prior notice to the Payee of its intent to make such prepayment, which notice shall state the date and amount of such prepayment (the “Prepayment Date”). The Payee shall have the option at any time prior to the Prepayment Date to elect to convert this Note pursuant to Section 5 below.

2. Computation and Payment of Interest.

A. Base Interest Rate. Subject to Sections 2B and 2C below, the outstanding Principal Amount shall bear interest at the rate of twelve (12%) percent per annum (the “Initial Interest Rate”); provided that, subject to Sections 2B and 2C below, outstanding Principal Amount shall bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of the Initial Interest Rate plus six percent (6.0%) per annum, commencing on January 1, 2025, if Shareholder Approval has not been obtained by the Company on or before December 31, 2024.

B. Default Interest. Upon the occurrence an Event of Default (as defined below), the rate of interest applicable to the unpaid Principal Amount shall be increased to twenty four percent (24%) per annum, until such time as such Event of Default has been cured. It is understood and agreed that such interest rate is payable upon demand and is not a penalty.

C. Maximum Rate. In the event that it is determined that, under the laws relating to usury applicable to the Company or the indebtedness evidenced by this Note (“Applicable Usury Laws”), the interest charges and fees payable by the Company in connection herewith or in connection with any other document or instrument executed and delivered in connection herewith cause the effective interest rate applicable to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note to exceed the maximum rate allowed by law (the “Maximum Rate”), then such interest shall be recalculated for the period in question and any excess over the Maximum Rate paid with respect to such period shall be credited, without further agreement or notice, to the Principal Amount outstanding hereunder to reduce said balance by such amount with the same force and effect as though the Company had specifically designated such extra sums to be so applied to principal and the Payee had agreed to accept such extra payment(s) as a premium-free prepayment. All such deemed prepayments shall be applied to the principal balance payable at maturity. In no event shall any agreed-to or actual exaction as consideration for this Note exceed the limits imposed or provided by Applicable Usury Laws in the jurisdiction in which the Company is resident applicable to the use or detention of money or to forbearance in seeking its collection in the jurisdiction in which the Company is resident.

D. Payment of Interest. Interest shall accrue and be paid in lump-sum payment on the Maturity Date (or any earlier date of payment).

(i) Before the Holder of this Note shall be entitled to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 5A, such holder shall give written notice to the Company in the form attached hereto as Annex A (“Conversion Notice”), at its principal corporate office, by email, or otherwise, of the election to convert the same and shall state therein the Conversion Amount and the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. On or before the third (3rd) business day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate (which may be in electronic form), registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled.

(ii) All Common Stock which may be issued upon conversion of the Note will, upon issuance, be duly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

D. Authorized Shares. At all times the Company shall have authorized and shall have reserved a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the conversion of the Notes at the then effective Conversion Price. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if, at any time, the Conversion Price is decreased, the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance upon the conversion of this Note shall be proportionately increased.

E. Anti-Dilution Provisions. The Conversion Price in effect at any time and the number and kind of securities issuable upon the conversion of this Note shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows:

(i) In case the Company shall hereafter (i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on its outstanding shares of Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to such action, and the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such action. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.

(ii) Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Subsection (i) above, the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note shall simultaneously be adjusted by multiplying the number of Conversion Shares initially issuable upon conversion of this Note by the Conversion Price in effect on the date hereof and dividing the product so obtained by the Conversion Price, as adjusted.

(iii) In case of any reorganization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (including any such reorganization, reclassification or change in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing entity), or any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company with or into, any other entity (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing entity), or of any sale of the properties and assets of the Company as, or substantially as, an entirety to any other person or entity, this Note shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of stock or other securities or property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation, merger or sale by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note would have been converted prior to such transaction. The provisions of this subsection (iii) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers or sales immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, change, consolidation, merger or sale.

6. Amendments and Waivers.

The provisions of this Note may from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented, or waived in the manner provided in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

7. Miscellaneous.

A. Parties in Interest. All covenants, agreements and undertakings in this Note binding upon the Company or the Payee shall bind and inure to the benefit of its successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the Payee, respectively, whether so express or not.

B. Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

C. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PAYEE AND THE COMPANY HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR INSTRUMENT EXECUTED AND DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF THE PAYEE OR THE COMPANY. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PAYEE’S PURCHASING THIS NOTE.

D. Fees and Expenses. The Company shall pay to or at the direction of the Payee on demand (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Holder and its affiliates (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Holder and its affiliates) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, and administration of the Securities Purchase Agreement, this Note and the documents, instruments and agreements in connection herewith, and any amendments, modifications, or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) (provided that the Company’s obligation to reimburse Holder for legal fees for the initial Closing is limited to the lesser of (x) $75,000 and (y) 75% of such legal fees ), (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Holder and its affiliates, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the such persons, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, this Note, and the documents, instruments and agreements in connection herewith, or (B) in connection with any advance or credit accommodations made to or for the benefit of the Company, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such advances and accommodations, the common stock issued in conversion of the Notes or exercise of the warrants, and the documents, instruments and agreements in connection herewith and therewith.

WARRANT

Warrant No. 1

Date of Issuance: July 23, 2024

BRANCHOUT FOOD INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), for valid consideration received, hereby certifies that Kaufman Kapital LLC or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled pursuant to the terms of this warrant (this “Warrant”), subject to the terms set forth below, commencing on the Shareholder Approval Date (as defined below) to purchase, prior to termination as provided in Section 5 hereof, up to 1,000,000 shares of duly authorized, validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock”), at an exercise price of $1.00 per share (the “Exercise Price”), subject to adjustment as set forth herein. The Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the “Warrant Stock.” This Warrant is issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement of even date herewith, by and between the Company and the Holder .

1. Exercise.

(a) Shareholder Approval Date. This Warrant may not be exercised until the Company has obtained the approval of the shareholders of the Company to the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with Listing Rule 5635(b) and 5635(d) of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc (such approval, “Warrant Shareholder Approval”, and the date of such approval, the “Warrant Shareholder Approval Date”), to the extent that at such time, such approval is required under such Listing Rules for such exercise.

(b) General. This Warrant may be exercised by Holder in whole or in part, during the period beginning on the Warrant Shareholder Approval Date and ending on the date of termination as provided in Section 5 hereof, by surrendering this Warrant, with the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit A completed in accordance with the instructions thereto and duly executed by such Holder or by such Holder’s duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate, accompanied by payment in full by cash, check or wire transfer of all or such portion of the aggregate Exercise Price as is payable in respect of the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchased upon such exercise.

(c) Timing. The exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 1(b) above. If Holder exercises this Warrant in connection with a merger or sale of the Company other than in connection with the conversion of the Company into a corporation through conversion, merger, or similar transaction in which the relative equity ownership percentages of the owners of the Company do not change (“Change of Control Transaction”), Holder may designate that the exercise date be deemed the closing date of such Change of Control Transaction, and conditional upon the occurrence of such event.

(d) Conversion Right.

(i) Right to Convert Warrant; Net Issuance. In addition to and without limiting the rights of the Holder under the terms of this Warrant, but only to the extent this Warrant has not otherwise been exercised, the Holder shall have the right to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the “Conversion Right”) into Warrant Stock as provided in this Section 1(d) at any time or from time to time during the term of this Warrant. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right with respect to a particular number of shares of Warrant Stock set forth on the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit A (the “Converted Warrant Stock”), the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any exercise price or any cash or other consideration) that number of shares of Warrant Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (X) the value of this Warrant (or the specified portion hereof) on the Conversion Date (as defined in subsection (ii) hereof), which value shall be determined by subtracting (A) the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares of Converted Warrant Stock immediately prior to the exercise of the Conversion Right from (B) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Converted Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or the specified portion hereof) on the Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined) by (Y) the Fair Market Value of one share of Converted Warrant Stock on the Conversion Date (as hereinafter defined).

Expressed as a formula, such conversion shall be computed as follows:

	X =	B - A
		Y

Where:	X =	the number of shares of Warrant Stock that may be issued to Holder upon exercise of the Conversion Right

	Y =	the Fair Market Value of one share of Warrant Stock

	A =	the aggregate Exercise Price (the per share Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Converted Warrant Stock)

	B =	the aggregate Fair Market Value (i.e., Fair Market Value multiplied by the number of shares of Converted Warrant Stock)

No fractional shares of Warrant Stock shall be issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right, and, if the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued determined in accordance with the foregoing formula is other than a whole number, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of the resulting fractional share of Warrant Stock on the Conversion Date.

(ii) Method of Exercise. The Conversion Right may be exercised by the Holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with a written statement specifying that the Holder thereby intends to exercise the Conversion Right and indicating the number of shares of Warrant Stock which are being surrendered (referred to in subsection (i) hereof as the Converted Warrant Stock) in exercise of the Conversion Right. Such conversion shall be effective upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant together with the aforesaid written statement (the “Conversion Date”). If the shares of Warrant Stock are certificated, then certificates for the Converted Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Right shall be issued as of the Conversion Date and shall be delivered to the Holder within thirty (30) days following the Conversion Date.

(iii) Determination of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Agreement, “Fair Market Value” shall mean, as of any particular date: (a) the lowest of the five most recent closing prices of the Warrant Stock if trading on any public exchange; (b) if there have been no sales of the Warrant Stock on any such exchange on any such day, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices for the Warrant Stock on all such exchanges at the end of such day; (c) if on any such day the Warrant Stock is not listed on a domestic securities exchange, the closing sales price of the Warrant Stock as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets or similar quotation system or association for such day; or (d) if there have been no sales of the Warrant Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets or similar quotation system or association on such day, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices for the Warrant Stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets or similar quotation system or association at the end of such day; in each case, averaged over twenty (20) consecutive Business Days ending on the Business Day immediately prior to the day as of which “Fair Market Value” is being determined; provided, that if the Warrant Stock is listed on any domestic securities exchange, the term “Business Day” as used in this sentence means Business Days on which such exchange is open for trading. If at any time the Warrant Stock is not listed on any domestic securities exchange or quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the Pink OTC Markets or similar quotation system or association, the “Fair Market Value” of the Warrant Stock shall be the fair market value per share of Warrant Stock as determined jointly by the Company and the Holder; provided, that if the Company and the Holder are unable to agree on the Fair Market Value per share of the Warrant Stock within a reasonable period of time (not to exceed ten (10) days from the Company’s receipt of the purchase form), such Fair Market Value shall be determined by a nationally recognized investment banking, accounting or valuation firm jointly selected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such firm shall be final and conclusive, and the fees and expenses of such valuation firm shall be borne by the Company.

(e) Certificates. If the shares of Warrant Stock are certificated, then as soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, Holder, or as such Holder may direct, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled. Issuance of certificates pursuant to this Section 1(e) shall be made without charge to Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expenses, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company.

(f) Legends. Each certificate or other records representing the Common Stock or for any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall bear the following legend:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”). SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY STATING THAT SUCH SALE, PLEDGE OR TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE ACT.”

(g) Status of Common Stock. The Company covenants that the Common Stock, when issued pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

2. Adjustments.

(a) Adjustment Upon Reorganization, Reclassification or Change of Control Transaction. In the event of any (i) capital reorganization of the Company, (ii) reclassification of the Capital Stock (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a distribution, dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of Capital Stock), (iii) Change of Control Transaction, or (iv) other similar transaction (other than any such transaction covered by Section 2(b)), in each case which entitles the holders of Common Stock to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, this Warrant shall, immediately after such reorganization, reclassification, Change of Control Transaction or similar transaction, remain outstanding and shall thereafter, in lieu of or in addition to (as the case may be) the number of shares of Warrant Stock then exercisable under this Warrant, be exercisable for the kind and number of shares of equity or securities or assets of the Company or of the successor Person (as defined below) resulting from such transaction to which the Holder would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or similar transaction if the Holder had exercised this Warrant in full immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification, Change of Control Transaction or similar transaction and acquired the applicable number of shares of Warrant Stock then issuable hereunder as a result of such exercise (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the exercisability of this Warrant); and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder) shall be made with respect to the Holder’s rights under this Warrant to insure that the provisions of this Section 2 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as possible, to this Warrant in relation to any membership units, interests, shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant (including, in the case of any Change of Control Transaction or similar transaction in which the successor or purchaser is other than the Company, an immediate adjustment to the number of shares of Warrant Stock then acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant without regard to any limitations or restrictions on exercise). The provisions of this Section 2(a) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, Change of Control Transactions or similar transactions. The Company shall not effect any such reorganization, reclassification, Change of Control Transaction or similar transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor (if other than the Company) resulting from such reorganization, reclassification, Change of Control Transaction or similar transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant and satisfactory to the Holder, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such membership units, interests, shares of stock, securities or assets which, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any corporate event or other transaction contemplated by the provisions of this Section 2(a), the Holder shall have the right to elect prior to the consummation of such event or transaction, to give effect to the exercise rights set forth in Section 1 instead of giving effect to the provisions of this Section 2(a) with respect to this Warrant

(b) Adjustment to Exercise Price and Warrant Shares Upon Dividend, Subdivision or Combination of Common Units. If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the issuance of this Warrant, (i) pay a dividend or make any other distribution upon the shares of Common Stock or any other Capital Stock of the Company payable in Common Stock, or (ii) subdivide (by any stock split, recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of units, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to any such dividend, distribution or subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of units, the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. Any adjustment under this Section 2(b) shall become effective at the close of business on the date the dividend, subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(c) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Purchase Price or the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 2 hereof, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to Holder in the form of a certificate, signed by the chief executive officer and the executive officer responsible for the creation of such certificate, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Warrant Stock purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such adjustment. Such certificate shall be delivered to Holder within thirty (30) days of such adjustment, in accordance with Section 11 hereof.

3. Transfers. The Holder of this Warrant acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and agrees not to offer for sale, sell, pledge, distribute, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant and agrees not to offer for sale, sell, pledge, distribute, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Warrant Stock issued upon its exercise in the absence of (i) an effective registration statement under the Act as to this Warrant and the Warrant Stock and registration or qualification of under any applicable Blue Sky or state securities law then in effect, or (ii) an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration and qualification are not required; provided, however, that no opinion need be obtained with respect to a transfer to (A) a partner or member, active or retired, of Holder, (B) the estate of any such partner or member, (C) an “affiliate” of Holder as that term is defined in Rule 405 promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Act, or (D) the spouse, children, grandchildren or spouse of such children or grandchildren of Holder or to trusts for the benefit of Holder or such persons, in each case if the transferee agrees to be subject to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transferee receiving Warrant Stock that (X) have been registered under the Act or (Y) are resaleable under Rule 144 promulgated under the Act shall not be required to agree in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 3.

4. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or bylaws or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of Holder of this Warrant against impairment.

5. Termination. This Warrant (and the right to purchase securities upon exercise hereof) shall terminate on December 31, 2025 (the “Expiration Date”).

6. Notices of Certain Transactions.

(a) In the event:

(i) that the Company makes any amendment to its certificate of incorporation or bylaws;

(ii) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any Change of Control Transaction, any other consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another entity, or any other transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which the Company’s equity holders immediately prior thereto will possess a minority of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity immediately thereafter, or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or

(iii) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

then, and in each such case, the Company will send to Holder a notice specifying, as the case may be, (a) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, (b) a certified copy of the Company’s current certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or (c) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, Change of Control Transaction, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, or redemption is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which Holders of record of shares of Common Stock (or such capital stock or securities at the time deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up, or redemption) shall be determined. Such notice shall be mailed at least twenty (20) days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice.

(b) The Company shall notify the Holder of the Expiration Date of the Warrant, no later than twenty (20) days prior to the Expiration Date.

7. Reservation of Warrant Stock. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for the issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of Common Stock and other equity securities or property, as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company covenants and agrees that all such shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid (assuming payment of the Exercise Price by Holder) and nonassessable and free from all preemptive rights and free of all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. The Company will take all such action as may be reasonably necessary to assure that such shares of Common Stock or other equity securities may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which the securities of the Company may be listed.

8. Exchange of Warrants. Upon the surrender by Holder of any Warrant, properly endorsed, to the Company at the principal office of the Company, the Company will, subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, issue and deliver to or upon the order of such Holder, at Holder’s expense, a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of such Holder or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock or other equity securities called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered.

9. Registration of Common Stock. If any shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for purposes of exercise of this Warrant requires registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any applicable law (other than the Act) before such shares of Common Stock may be issued upon exercise, the Company shall, at its expense and as expeditiously as possible, use its best efforts to cause such shares of Common Stock to be duly registered or approved, as the case may be

10. Replacement of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an indemnity agreement (with surety if reasonably required) in an amount reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor at Holder’s expense.

Any party hereto may by notice so given change its address for future notice hereunder.

12. No Rights as Stockholder. Until the exercise of this Warrant, Holder shall not have or exercise any rights by virtue hereof as a stockholder of the Company unless otherwise acquired. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and except as otherwise provided in Section 3 hereof, no dividends shall accrue to the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities underlying this Warrant until the exercise hereof and the purchase of the underlying shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, at which point dividends shall begin to accrue with respect to such shares of Common Stock or other equity securities from and after the date such shares of Common Stock or other equity securities are so purchased. Nothing in this Section 12 shall limit the right of Holder to be provided the notices required to be provided pursuant to the terms of this Warrant.

13. Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning of any provision of this Warrant.

Every right and remedy of Lender under this Agreement, the SPA or any other Transaction Document or under applicable law may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Lender. To the extent that it lawfully may, Grantor agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatever claim or take any benefit or advantage of any applicable present or future stay, extension or moratorium law, that may affect observance or performance of portions of any provisions of this Agreement, the SPA or any other Transaction Document; nor will it claim, take or insist upon any benefit or advantage of any present or future law providing for the valuation or appraisal of any security for its obligations under this Agreement, the SPA or any other Transaction Document prior to any sale or sales thereof that may be made under or by virtue of any instrument governing the same; nor will Grantor, after any such sale or sales, claim or exercise any right, under any applicable law to redeem any portion of such security so sold.

5.2. Conduct No Waiver. No waiver of default shall be effective unless in writing executed by Lender and waiver of any default or forbearance on the part of Lender under the Notes in enforcing any of its right under this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion or of such right.

5.3. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Agreement is a contract made under, and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Nevada applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State and without giving effect to choice of law principles of such State. Grantor agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be brought in any court of the State of Nevada, or in any court of the United States of America sitting in Nevada, and Grantor hereby submits to and accepts generally and unconditionally the jurisdiction of those courts with respect to its person and property. Nothing in this paragraph shall affect the right of Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or limit the right of Lender to bring any such action or proceeding against Grantor or its property in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Grantor hereby irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit or proceeding in the above-described courts. The headings of the various subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify any of the terms or provisions hereof.

5.4. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be delivered in the manner described in the SPA.

5.5. Rights Not Construed as Duties. Lender neither assumes nor shall it have any duty of performance or other responsibility under any contracts in which Lender has or obtains a security interest hereunder beyond the exercise of reasonable care. If Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Lender may but is in no way obligated to perform, or cause performance of such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of Lender incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Grantor under Section 5.8. The powers conferred on Lender hereunder are solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Lender to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in Lender’s possession, a duty to exercise reasonable care, and accounting for monies actually received by it hereunder, Lender shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which is reasonable and customary in the industry for Lender.

5.6. Amendments. None of the terms and provisions of this Agreement may be modified or amended in any way except by an instrument in writing executed by Grantor and Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be modified to permit a collateral agent to be appointed for the secured parties hereunder with the consent of the Lender and the collateral agent.

5.7. Severability. If any one or more provisions of this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contented herein shall not in any way be affected, impaired, prejudiced or disturbed thereby, and any provision hereunder found partially unenforceable shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the fullest extent possible.

5.8. Expenses.

(a) Grantor will, upon demand, jointly and severally, pay to Lender an amount of any and all reasonable and documented expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that Lender may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of Lender hereunder or under the SPA or any other Transaction Document, or (iv) a failure of Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

(b) Grantor agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Lender from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities actually incurred or suffered growing out of or resulting from this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting from Lender’s gross negligence, breach of this Agreement, or willful misconduct.

5.9. Successors and Assigns; Termination. This Agreement shall create a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable security interest in the Collateral and shall be binding upon Grantor, its successors and assigns, and inure, together with the rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, to the benefit of Lender and its successors, transferees and assigns. Upon the irrevocable payment in full in immediately available funds of all of the Secured Obligations and the termination of all commitments to lend and letters of credit outstanding under this Agreement, the SPA or any other Transaction Document and all other appliable notes and agreements, and the execution and delivery by the Grantor of a written release for the benefit of the Lender, the security interest granted hereunder shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Grantor.

5.10. Evidence of Secured Obligations. Lender’s books and records showing the Secured Obligations shall be admissible in any action or proceeding, shall be binding upon each Grantor for the purpose of establishing the Secured Obligations due from Grantor and shall constitute prima facie proof, absent manifest error, of the Secured Obligations of Grantor to Lender.

5.11. Waiver of Jury Trial. Grantor, after consulting or having had the opportunity to consult with counsel, knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in any litigation based upon or arising out of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any related instrument or agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any course of conduct, dealing, statements (whether oral or written) or actions. Grantor shall not seek to consolidate, by counterclaim or otherwise, any such action in which a jury trial has been waived with any other action in which a jury trial cannot be or has not been waived. These provisions shall not be deemed to have been modified in any respect or relinquished by either Lender, on the hand, or Grantor, on the other hand, except by a written instrument executed by all of them.

5.12. Limitations on Damages. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law, each party hereto hereby knowingly, voluntarily, intentionally, and irrevocably waives any right such party may have to claim or recover in any dispute or controversy any special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages, or damages other than or in addition to actual damages, provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this Section 5.12 shall not apply to the grossly negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct of either party in performing its obligations under this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Grantor has caused this Security Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first set forth above.

OMNIBUS AMENDMENT TO NOTE DOCUMENTS

THIS OMNIBUS AMENDMENT TO NOTE AGREEMENTS (this “Amendment”), dated as of July 23, 2024, is made by and among BranchOut Food Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and the holders of the Company’s Senior Secured Promissory Notes (the “Lenders”) party to this Amendment and Eaglevision Ventures, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as Lender Representative (the “Lender Representative”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company and the Lenders are parties to that certain Subscription Agreement, dated as of January 10, 2024, as amended by a First Amendment thereto dated as of April 16, 2024 (as amended, the “Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders purchased (i) Senior Secured Notes of the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $1,675,000 (the “Notes”), and (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 518,750 shares of the Company’s common stock, at a price of $2.00 per share (the “Warrants”).

WHEREAS, the obligations of the Company to the Lenders under the Notes are secured pursuant to a Security Agreement between the Company and the Lenders, dated as of January 10, 2024 (the “Security Agreement” and together with the Subscription Agreement, the Notes and the Warrants and all documents, instruments and agreements in connection therewith, the “Note Documents”).

WHEREAS, the Company and the Lenders desire amend certain provisions of the Note Documents, in the manner, and on the terms and conditions, provided for herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Amendments.

(a) Warrant Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of the Warrants is hereby reduced from $2.00 to $1.00.

(b) Extension of Maturity Date. The definition of the “Maturity Date” as set forth in the Notes and the Subscription Agreement is hereby amended by replacing “December 31, 2024” with “the later of (x) December 31, 2025, and (y) any later stated maturity date of the Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note anticipated to be dated on or about July 19, 2024 as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “New Money Note” issued by Company to Daniel L Kaufman or his designee”.

(c) No Additional Notes. It is agreed that no additional Notes will be issued under the Subscription Agreement and that the Notes may be paid only as permitted under the Intercreditor Agreement to be executed in connection herewith.

(d) Elimination of Amortization Payments. Section 1.1(b) of the Subscription Agreement is hereby deleted.

(e) Qualified Subsequent Financing. The definition of “Qualified Subsequent Financing” as set forth in the Subscription Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Qualified Subsequent Financing: This term means the next sale (or series of related sales) after July 19, 2024 by the Company, of any security that occurs prior to the Maturity Date in which the Company receives aggregate gross proceeds of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) or more from any parties that do not currently own, directly or indirectly, independently or through any affiliated entities, any Capital Stock (excluding the financing under the New Money Note, the New Money Subscription Agreement (defined below) and the $525,000 offering of common stock and warrants closing on or after July 15, 2024 and prior to or substantially contemporaneously with the New Money Note, and any refinancing of indebtedness).”

(f) Seniority. Section 7 of the Subscription Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Notwithstanding any provision in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, the Indebtedness evidenced by the Senior Secured Notes issued to Purchasers, and each Purchaser’s rights and remedies hereunder and under the Other Investor Agreements, shall be senior in all respects to the liens, terms, covenants and conditions of all debt of the Company existing on January 10, 2024, except for the Permitted Senior Obligations, and, to the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between the other terms of this Subscription Agreement and this Section 7, the provisions of this Section 7 shall control. Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Indebtedness evidenced by the Senior Secured Note issued to such Purchaser, and such Purchaser’s rights and remedies hereunder and under the Other Investor Agreements, shall be junior with respect to any Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) that is subject to the Permitted Senior Obligations (including the Permitted Senior Liens) for so long as such Permitted Senior Obligations remain outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchasers acknowledge and agree that the indebtedness evidenced by the Senior Secured Notes issued to Purchasers and the Liens securing such indebtedness, shall be (a) pari passu with (i) the indebtedness evidenced by that certain 12% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the original principal amount of up to $3,400,000, made by the Company in favor of Kaufman Kapital LLC (the “New Money Lender”), pursuant to that certain Subscription Agreement dated as of July 15, 2024, (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “New Money Subscription Agreement”), and (ii) the Liens securing such indebtedness, and (b) junior to all other future additional indebtedness issued at the request of the Company under the New Money Subscription Agreement or otherwise in favor of the New Money Lender and its designee(s), successors and assigns, and the Liens securing such indebtedness.”

(g) Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the Subscription Agreement are hereby amended by adding the following to the end of each such section, prior to the period “, to the extent that a failure to pay or perform would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;”

(h) Section 11.1 of the Subscription Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“The Company shall not create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable for any Indebtedness contractually senior in right of payment to the Senior Secured Notes, except as created under or as permitted by the New Money Subscription Agreement and the notes issued thereunder, and indebtedness secured by Permitted Senior Liens, and all outstanding current and any future obligations of the Company to its officers and/or directors and any additional debt instruments issued by the Company (other than pursuant to or permitted by the New Money Subscription Agreement) shall be subordinated to the Senior Secured Notes in all material respects, in each case, except for the Permitted Senior Liens (solely to the extent such Permitted Senior Liens remain outstanding) or as otherwise permitted under the New Money Subscription Agreement and the notes issued thereunder.”

2. Section 11.2 of the Subscription Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following at the end of the sentence before the period: “and except as permitted under the New Money Subscription Agreement and the notes issued thereunder.

3. Section 11.3 of the Subscription Agreement is hereby amended by deleting clause (d) thereof and replacing it with the following “(d) dispositions permitted under the New Money Subscription Agreement and the notes issued thereunder.”

4. Section 12.9 of the Subscription Agreement is hereby amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“12.9 WAIVERS, MODIFICATIONS. Any provision of this Agreement and the Notes issued hereunder, and the Security Agreement executed in connection herewith and therewith, may be amended, waived, modified, discharged or terminated with the written consent of the Company and Lenders holding a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes or the Lender Representative acting for the applicable Lenders. Any such change, modification, waiver or discharge shall not disproportionately and materially adversely affect any Investor or holder of the notes without the consent of the Person affected thereby.”

5. The Subscription Agreement, the Security Agreement and each Note is hereby amended by adding the following provision thereto:

	a.	Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Eaglevision Ventures, Inc., a Delaware corporation, acting as authorized representative (the “Lender Representative”) to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement, each other Note Document and the Intercreditor Agreement, and to exercise such powers of each Lender hereunder and thereunder. The Lender Representative shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Note Document or otherwise exist against the Lender Representative. Whether or not explicitly set forth therein, the rights, powers, protections, immunities and indemnities granted to the Lender Representative herein shall apply to any document entered into by the Lender Representative in connection with its role as Lender Representative under the Note Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement. Except to the extent expressly provided otherwise herein, the Lenders holding the majority of the outstanding principal amount of Notes (the “Required Holders”) shall have the right to direct the Lender Representative in all matters concerning the Note Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement.

	b.	Delegation of Duties. The Lender Representative may execute any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement, any other Note Document or the Intercreditor Agreement by or through agents, sub-agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.

	c.	Authorizations. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by the Lender Representative and the Required Holders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement the Note Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and the exercise by the Lender Representative and Required Holders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon, all Lenders. The Lender Representative is hereby authorized (but not obligated) on behalf of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time to take any action with respect to any property, Collateral or Note Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement which may be necessary to create, perfect and maintain perfected Liens upon the Collateral and the properties granted pursuant to the Note Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender Representative to release any Lien granted to or held by the Lender Representative upon any Collateral in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement. Upon request by the Lender Representative at any time, the Required Holders will confirm in writing the Lender Representative’s authority, and will direct the Lender Representative to release particular types or items of the Collateral pursuant to this Section and the Lender Representative shall be entitled to conclusively rely, and shall be fully protected in so relying, upon the authorization of the Required Holders.

	d.	Power of Attorney. In furtherance of the authorizations set forth in this Section, each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Lender Representative as its attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, for and on behalf of and in the name of each such Lender (i) to enter into the Note Documents and amendments thereto and the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) to act in the capacities and with the powers and authorities set forth therein and in any respect with respect to such agreements, (iii) to take any and all action with respect to the Collateral, the Note Documents, and the Intercreditor Agreement, (iv) to take any and all action and execute all documents, instruments and agreements in connection with the Intercreditor Agreement and the Note Documents on behalf of each Lender, and (v) to execute instruments of release on behalf of each Lender or to take other action necessary to release Liens or to release any guarantor. This power of attorney shall be liberally, not restrictively, construed so as to give the greatest latitude to the Lender Representative. The powers and authorities herein conferred on the Lender Representative may be exercised by the Lender Representative on more than one occasion and through any authorized Person or agent. The power of attorney conferred by this Section to the Lender Representative is granted for valuable consideration and is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable so long as the obligations under the Note Documents, or any part thereof, shall remain unpaid.

	e.	Liability of Lender Representative. The Lender Representative shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Note Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). The Lender Representative shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request or direction of the Required Holders. The Lender Representative shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Lender Representative to liability that is contrary to any Note Document or applicable law.

	f.	Reliance by Lender Representative. The Lender Representative shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, facsimile or email, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons.

6. Application to Note Documents; Ratification. The amendments set forth in this Amendment shall apply to the Subscription Agreement and all outstanding Notes and Warrants, and such Notes and Warrants are hereby amended accordingly. Except as expressly modified by this Amendment, the Note Documents are hereby ratified and affirmed and remain in full force and effect. This Agreement constitutes a “Transaction Document” as defined in the Subscription Agreement.

7. Effectiveness. This Amendment with respect to the Company and any Lender will be effective when signed and delivered by the Company and such Lender.

8. Governing Law. The laws of the State of Nevada shall govern all matters arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Amendment, including, without limitation, its validity, interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement.

9. Counterparts. This Amendment may be signed in any number of counterparts, including by email PDF, DocuSign, or other electronic transmission, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same document.
