Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 5, 2025, Inspire Veterinary Partners, Inc. (the “Company”)
issued Senior Convertible Promissory Notes to Keystone Capital Partners, LLC and Seven Knots, LLC (the “Investors”), each
in the principal amount of $178,571,43 with an original issue discount of 30% such that the purchase price of each note was $125,000
(each a “Note” and together, the “Notes”). Each Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable monthly,
and matures on August 5, 2026, unless earlier converted or repaid in accordance with its terms.
The outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Notes are
convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The conversion price is 90% of the
lowest sale price of the Class A common stock for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately
prior to the conversion date, subject to customary adjustments. If the Company issues securities at a price per share less than the conversion
price of the Notes, the conversion price of the Notes will be adjusted to the lower price. The Company has agreed to reserve a number
of shares of its Class A common stock sufficient to cover the conversion of the Notes and to file a registration statement with the Securities
and Exchange Commission to register for resale the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.
An Investor may not convert the Notes into shares of Class A common
stock which, when aggregated with all other shares of the Company’s Class A common stock then beneficially owned by the Investor
and its affiliates (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder), would result
in the Investor beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock.
An Investor may increase or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation, but not in excess of 9.99% of the issued and outstanding shares
of the Company’s Class A common stock, upon prior written notice to the Company.
The Notes must be prepaid by the Company in an amount equal to 25%
of any gross proceeds received by the Company under an existing equity line of credit with Seven Knots, LLC. Any mandatory prepayment
will be at a premium of 120% of the principal amount of the Notes being prepaid.
Subject to the Investors’ conversion rights, if the Company completes
a Qualified Financing, the Company will repay in full the then-outstanding principal amount of the Notes, any accrued but unpaid interest
and a pre-payment premium equal to 120% of the Notes’ value on the original issue date. A “Qualified Financing” is a
financing in which the Company issues and sells shares of its equity securities to investors on or before the maturity date of the Notes
with total gross proceeds to the Company of not less than $1,000,000, and excludes the conversion of the Notes or other convertible securities
issued for capital raising purposes.
The Notes contain certain events of default, including non-payment,
insolvency, breach of covenants, change of control and issuance of indebtedness by the Company without the Investors’ consent, among
others. Upon an event of default, all amounts outstanding under the Notes may become immediately due and payable at the option of the
holder at a premium of 120% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and any accrued but unpaid interest. In addition, for
so long as the Notes remain outstanding, the interest rate will increase to an amount equal to the lesser of 24% per annum and the maximum
rate permitted under applicable law.
The Company expects to use the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes
for general working capital purposes.
The foregoing description of the Notes is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the full text of the Notes, which are filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated
herein by reference.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation
under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form
8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02. The issuance of the Notes, and the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon
conversion thereof, were made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule
506(b) of Regulation D, as transactions not involving a public offering.
