Material Agreement Form 8 K

Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement

On September 3, 2024, Sentient Brands Holdings Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with AIG, F&B, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("AIG"), and the owners (the "AIG Shareholders") of 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of AIG (collectively, the "AIG Shares"), pursuant to which, upon the Closing (as defined below), the Company will acquire the AIG Shares from the AIG Shareholders in exchange for shares of common stock of the Company (the "Acquisition Shares"), which such Acquisition Shares will be issued by the Company to the AIG Shareholders in accordance with an Earnout Schedule (as defined below) as set forth in the Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange"). The closing of the Share Exchange (the "Closing") is to take place on or before November 1, 2024 (the "Outside Closing Date").

The AIG Shareholders represent a group of international, vertically integrated food and beverage manufacturing companies ("AIG Group"), comprising eight factories and 170 distributors across 22 countries, who market and sell products through various U.S. and international big-box retailers and distributors, with several product lines holding Organic and Kosher certifications. In line with its business plan, AIG intends to launch a global, vertically integrated food and beverage manufacturing and distribution business, based on AIG Group's proven, cash flow-positive product lines and business models. The Company believes that, if the Share Exchange is consummated, AIG's planned business venture would be synergistic with the Company's existing product and brand development business and anticipates meaningful operation efficiency through the integration of the two organizations.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, following the Closing, the Acquisition Shares will be issued by the Company to the AIG Shareholders on a quarterly basis over the five (5) year period immediately following the Closing, in accordance with a performance-based Earnout Schedule (the "Earnout Schedule"). Pursuant to the Earnout Schedule, the Acquisition Shares will be issued to the AIG Shareholders (and/or their designees) after achieving certain Company revenue and EBITDA growth for a period of up to five (5) years. The number of Acquisition Shares issued to the AIG Shareholders pursuant to the Earnout Schedule will be based upon the greatest number of Acquisition Shares that would be calculated utilizing three (3) different earnout criteria methods, as follows:

(1) Annual Revenue Growth Method: Acquisition Shares issued = (Company quarterly revenue growth relative to the same quarter in the previous year) / (Company's trailing average share price over the prior quarter) where Company's trailing average share price is the average of the closing price of the Company's share price on its principal market for the quarter. For example: If revenue grows from $5,000,000 in quarter one 2024 to $10,000,000 in quarter one 2025 and the Company's trailing average share price is $.07, then: $5,000,000/$.07 = 71,428,571 Acquisition Shares to be issued.

(2) EBITDA Method: Acquisition Shares issued = (Five (5) x quarterly EBITDA growth relative to the same quarter in the previous year) / (Company's trailing average share price over the prior quarter). For example: If EBITDA grows from $200,000 in quarter one 2024 to $500,000 in quarter one 2025 and the Company's trailing average share price is $.07, then: 5 x $300,000 = $1,500,000/$.07 = 21,428,571 acquisition shares to be issued.

(3) Appraised Value of Rolled-in Assets Method: Acquisition Shares issued = (appraised value of rolled-in assets relative to the same quarter in the previous year) / (Company's trailing average share price over the prior quarter). For example: If assets in quarter one 2024 were $1,000,000 and assets in quarter one 2025 were $5,000,000 and the Company's trailing average share price is $.07, then: $4,000,000/$.07 = 57,142,857 Acquisition Shares to be issued.
