Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Loan Agreement
On July 31, 2025 (the “Effective Date”), Purebase Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“the Company”), together with Dockter Farms, LLC, a California limited liability company (“Dockter Farms”) entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with J.J. Astor & Co., a Utah corporation (the “Lender”) for the aggregate principal amount of $500,000. The Company plans to use the proceeds from the loan for working capital and general corporate purposes.
As consideration for entering into the Loan Agreement, the Company will issue 750,000 shares of its common stock to the Lender (the “Bonus Shares”). If, ninety (90) days after the Effective Date, the market price of the Company’s common stock, as quoted on any applicable trading market or exchange, is not greater than fifty cents ($0.50) per share, the Company will issue an additional 750,000 shares to the Lender.
To induce the Lender to enter into the Loan Agreement, Mr. Scott Dockter, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, executed an Affidavit of Confession of Judgment in favor of the Lender.
Secured Promissory Note
On the Effective Date the Company issued the Lender a secured promissory note (the “Note”) to evidence the amount loaned. The Note was issued with an original issue discount of $150,000, resulting in a principal amount of $650,000 and a purchase price of $500,000.
The Note has a maturity date of May 5,2026. The Note will be repaid in forty (40) week installments, of which (a) the first eight (8) weekly installments shall be in the amount of $8,125 each and (b) the remaining thirty-two (32) weekly installments shall be in the amount of $18,281.25 each, commencing August 5, 2025.
After an occurrence of an event of default, as described in the Note, it shall become immediately due and payable and the Company will pay a default amount of the sum of: (1) the amount obtained by multiplying (x) the then outstanding principal amount, by (y) 120%, plus (2) default interest accruing on such Default Principal Amount (as defined in the Note) at the default rate of interest of 19% per annum, compounded daily, and (3) all other amounts, costs, expenses, and liquidated damages due, if any.
While the Note remains outstanding, the Company may not, without the Lender’s written consent: (i) amend or modify the terms of any existing indebtedness, (ii) incur additional indebtedness, (iii) grant liens on any of its assets, or (iv) enter into transactions with any affiliates.
The Note will rank senior to all other indebtness of the Company.
Pledge and Security Agreement
The Company’s obligations under the Note are guaranteed and secured by a senior first lien security interest in all of the assets and properties of the Company, as well as all of the equity interests in Dockter Farms, pursuant to a pledge and security agreement (the “Security Agreement”) entered into by the Company, Dockter Farms, and the Lender. In addition, Dockter Farms granted the Lender a deed of trust on certain real property pursuant to a Second Deed of Trust. The Security Agreement also contains rights and obligations, representations and warranties, and events of default applicable to the Company that are customary for agreements of this type.
The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement, the Note and the Security Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, copies of which are attached to this report as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
