EXPLANATORY NOTE
Cizzle Brands Corporation (the “Company”
or the “Registrant”) is a Canadian issuer eligible to file its annual report pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) on Form 40-F pursuant to the U.S.-Canadian multi-jurisdictional disclosure system.
The Registrant is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act. Equity securities of the Registrant
are accordingly exempt from Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c), 14(f) and 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 3a12-3.
The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 (this
“Amendment”) to its original Annual Report on Form 40-F for the year ended July 31, 2026, which was filed with the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 28, 2026 (the “Annual Report”), in order to refile
Exhibit 99.1 - Annual Information Form for the Fiscal Year ended July 31, 2026 (the “AIF”) to (i) correct a typographical
error in the AIF, which inadvertently stated that the date of the AIF was October 28, 2026 instead of October 27, 2026, and (ii) update
certain information set forth under “Item 9. Directors and Officers – Name, Occupation and Security Holding.”
In addition, pursuant to the rules of the
SEC, this Amendment also contains new certifications required by Rule 13a-14(a) or Rule 15d-14(a), pursuant to Section 302 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Except as described above, the Annual Report remains
unchanged. In addition, this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Annual Report or modify or update those
disclosures. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report and the Registrant’s other SEC filings.
