Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Convertible Note Amendment
On May 14, 2026, BranchOut Food Inc. (the “Company”), and Kaufman Kapital LLC (“Kaufman”), entered into an amendment to the 12% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note of the Company in the original principal amount of up to $3,400,000, dated as of July 23, 2024 (the “Convertible Note”), pursuant to which a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation provision was added to the Convertible Note. Under this provision, Kaufman may not convert any portion of the Convertible Note into shares of the Company’s common stock to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion, Kaufman would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
Additional Kaufman Loan
As previously reported, on January 28, 2026, the Company, borrowed $1,500,000 from Kaufman pursuant to a Senior Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,500,000 (the “Original Note”), and on April 17, 2026, the Company borrowed an additional $750,000 from Kaufman pursuant to an Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2,250,000 (the “Note”), which amended and restated the Original Note and was in the same form as the Original Note.
On May 15, 2026, the Company borrowed an additional $750,000 from Kaufman on the same terms provided for under the Note (the “Additional Loan”), pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note in the principal amount of $3,000,000 (the “Note”), which amends and restates the Note. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Additional Loan for working capital purposes for the production of customer orders.
The Note matures on January 28, 2027 and bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum. The Company’s obligations under the Note are secured by a lien granted to Kaufman on substantially all of the Company’s assets pursuant to a Security Agreement previously entered between the Company and Kaufman (the “Security Agreement”) in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Note. In addition, the Note includes affirmative and negative covenants, events of defaults and other terms and conditions, customary in transactions of this nature.
The information set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the Note and Security Agreement, which have been filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and which are incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 4.1
AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO CONVERTIBLE NOTE
THIS AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO CONVERTIBLE NOTE (this “Amendment”), dated as of May 14, 2026, is made by and between BranchOut Food Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and Kaufman Kapital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Kaufman Kapital”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Kaufman Kapital is the holder of a 12% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note of the Company in the original principal amount of up to $3,400,000, dated as of July 23, 2024, with a current outstanding principal balance of $2,900,000, as previously amended by the Warrant Exercise and Amendment to Notes and Warrant Agreement dated as of May 30, 2025 (the “June 2025 Amendment”) and the Warrant Exercise and Amendment to Note and Warrant Agreement dated as of May 7, 2026 (the “May 2026 Agreement”) (as so amended, the “Convertible Note”);
WHEREAS, the Convertible Note, as amended, bears interest at 8% per annum, matures on December 31, 2027, and is convertible at the option of Kaufman Kapital into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a fixed conversion price of $0.7582 per share; and
WHEREAS, the Company and Kaufman Kapital desire to add a beneficial ownership limitation on conversions under the Convertible Note, on the terms set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
(a) Conversion Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Convertible Note, Kaufman Kapital shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Convertible Note (whether principal or accrued and unpaid interest) to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion, Kaufman Kapital (together with its affiliates and any persons acting as a group with Kaufman Kapital or any of its affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares upon such conversion (the “Maximum Percentage”). For purposes of this Section 1, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 1, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, Kaufman Kapital may rely on the number of outstanding shares as reflected in (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the SEC, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or its transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request of Kaufman Kapital, the Company shall, within two (2) trading days, confirm orally and in writing to Kaufman Kapital the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.
| Page 1 |
(b) Mechanics. If Kaufman Kapital delivers a conversion notice under the Convertible Note and the Company determines that the conversion would cause Kaufman Kapital’s beneficial ownership to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Company shall convert such portion of the Convertible Note as would not cause Kaufman Kapital to exceed the Maximum Percentage, and the remainder of such conversion notice shall be deemed withdrawn. Kaufman Kapital may submit a new conversion notice when its beneficial ownership has decreased below the Maximum Percentage.
(c) Waiver. Kaufman Kapital may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% upon not less than sixty-one (61) days’ prior written notice to the Company; provided that any such increase or decrease will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the shares of Common Stock underlying the portion of the Convertible Note that is subject to the limitation contained in this Section 1 shall not be deemed “beneficially owned” by Kaufman Kapital for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder so long as such limitation is in effect.
(d) Aggregation. For purposes of clarity, the beneficial ownership limitation set forth in this Section 1 shall apply to the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note (including conversion of both outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest) together with all other shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Kaufman Kapital and its affiliates at such time.
2. No Other Amendments. Except as expressly provided herein, the Convertible Note (as previously amended by the June 2025 Amendment and the May 2026 Agreement) shall be unmodified and shall continue to be in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. For the avoidance of doubt, the conversion price ($0.7582 per share), maturity date (December 31, 2027), interest rate (8% per annum), prepayment restrictions, security interest, and all other terms of the Convertible Note remain unchanged.
3. 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.
4. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures delivered by electronic means (including PDF) shall be deemed original signatures.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be duly executed and delivered as of the day and year first written above.

Exhibit 10.1
BRANCHOUT FOOD INC.
Second Amended and Restated
Senior Secured Promissory Note
| $3,000,000 | January 28, 2026 (the “Issue Date”) | |
| As amended and restated on April 17, 2026 | ||
| As further amended and restated on May 15, 2026 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BRANCHOUT FOOD, INC., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) with its principal executive office at 205 SE Davis Ave., Suite C, Bend, Oregon 97702, promises to pay to the order of Kaufman Kapital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or its registered assigns (the “Holder” or “Payee”), the principal amount of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) (the “Principal Amount”), together with interest on such Principal Amount, on January 28, 2027 (the “Maturity Date”). Interest on this Second Amended and Restated Senior Secured Promissory Note (this “Note”) shall accrue on the Principal Amount outstanding at a rate per annum computed in accordance with Section 2 hereof. This Note represents (i) an initial advance in the amount of $1,500,000 made to the Company on the Issue Date, (ii) an additional advance in the amount of $750,000 made to the Company on April 17, 2026, and (iii) an additional advance in the amount of $750,000 made to the Company on May 15, 2026, and amends and restates in its entirety the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Promissory Note issued by the Company to Payee dated April 17, 2026.
This Note is secured by a Security Agreement, dated July 23, 2024, between the Company and the Holder (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time the “Security Agreement”) covering certain collateral (the “Collateral”), 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 are collectively referred to as the “Security Documents.”
1. Optional Prepayment. 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.
2. Computation and Payment of Interest.
A. Base Interest Rate. Subject to Sections 2B below, the outstanding Principal Amount shall bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum.
B. 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.
C. Payment of Interest. Interest shall accrue and be paid in lump-sum payment on the Maturity Date (or any earlier date of payment).
