Item
1.01. Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.
Convertible
Promissory Note Offering; Securities Purchase Agreement
On
October 24, 2025, Snail, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase
Agreement”) with an accredited investor (the “Investor”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Securities Purchase
Agreement, the Investor agreed to purchase from the Company in a private placement offering (the “Offering”) an unsecured
convertible promissory Note in the aggregate principal amount of $2,200,000 (the “Note”). The Note had a purchase price of
$2,000,000 due to the inclusion of a 10% original issuance discount (“OID”).
The
Company will pay a one-time interest charge on the principal amount of the Note at a rate of 5% when such amounts become due and payable,
whether at maturity or upon acceleration or by prepayment or otherwise, as further provided herein. The maturity date is twelve (12)
months from the date of issuance (the “Maturity Date”), and is the date upon which the principal amount (which includes the
OID) and any accrued and unpaid interest and other fees, is due and payable.
Any
outstanding principal or interest on the Note that is not paid when due will bear interest at the rate of the lesser of: (i) 10% per
annum and (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the due date thereof until the same is paid. Upon the occurrence of an event
of default that has not been cured, the Note will become immediately due and payable. In addition, upon an event of default, the Company
will be required to pay an amount equal to the principal amount then outstanding plus accrued interest through the date of full repayment
multiplied by 120%, plus applicable costs and fees. The Company may prepay the outstanding principal amount and interest due under the
Note subject to certain restrictions.
The
Investor has the right at any time (subject to certain ownership limitations) to convert all or any portion of the then outstanding and
unpaid principal amount of the Note into shares (the “Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s Class A common stock, par
value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”). The per share conversion price (the “Conversion Price”)
at which principal and interest under the Note will be convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock is $5.00, subject to adjustment
as provided in the Note, provided, however, that with respect to $577,500 of the outstanding amount of the Note, the Conversion Price
equals the lesser of (i) $5.00, or (ii) the Market Price (which is defined as mean 92% of the lowest dollar volume weighted average price
(the “VWAP”) on any trading day during the five (5) trading days prior to the respective conversion date. “VWAP”
means, for any security as of any date, the dollar volume-weighted average price for such security on the Principal Market (as defined
in the Note) during the period beginning at 9:30 a.m., New York time, and ending at 4:00 p.m., New York time, as reported by Bloomberg
or other similar quotation service provider designated by the Investor.
Pursuant
to the Note, the Company will, at all times, reserve from its authorized and unissued shares of Class A common stock a sufficient number
of shares to provide for the issuance of the Conversion Shares equal to the greater of: (i) an aggregate of 3,275,046 shares of Class
A Common Stock, and (ii) an amount equal to: (a) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the full conversion of the Note (assuming
no payment of the principal amount or interest) at a conversion price equal to the Conversion Price multiplied by (b) 1.5.
The
Note are ranked as a senior unsecured obligation of the Company with priority over all existing and future unsecured indebtedness.
This
Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy the Note or the Conversion Shares,
nor shall there be an offer, solicitation or sale of the Note or the Conversion Shares in any state in which such offer, solicitation
or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state.

conditions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Securities Purchase Agreement and Note were made only for
purposes of the Securities Purchase Agreement and Note and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such Agreement

terms, please refer to the copies of the form of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Note that are filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1

Registration
Rights Agreement
On
October 24, 2025, the parties entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), which grants
the Investor certain customary registration rights in connection with the Offering with respect to the Conversion Shares. In accordance
with the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement
on Form S-1 or Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) registering the resale of the Conversion Shares within 90 days and
have such registration statement effective by within 120 days after the execution of the Registration Rights Agreement (the “Effectiveness
Deadline”); provided, that if the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) is closed for operations due to a
government shutdown or lapse in appropriations after the date on which the Company initially filed the Registration Statement with the
SEC, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of calendar days that the SEC remains closed and/or shutdown for
operations after the date on which the Company initially filed the Registration Statement with the SEC
The
foregoing is a summary description of certain terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. For a full description of all terms, please
