1.01 – Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On
April 26, 2026, Netcapital Inc. (the “Company”) entered into two Securities Purchase Agreements with Vanquish Funding Group
Inc., a Virginia corporation, pursuant to which the Company issued two promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $144,550

The
notes consist of:
A

The Bridge Note includes a one-time interest charge of 14%, or $12,992, and is payable in five installments beginning October 30, 2026,

The
notes are prepayable in full without penalty, subject to the prepayment provisions set forth in the notes. Amounts not paid when due
bear default interest at 22% per annum. The notes include customary events of default, including payment defaults, covenant breaches,
failure to issue shares upon conversion following an event of default, bankruptcy or insolvency events, delisting, failure to comply
with Exchange Act reporting obligations, certain restatements, transfer agent-related defaults, and cross-defaults with other existing
