Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 8, 2025, Safety Shot, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor entity (the “Investor”) for a private investment in public equity (the “PIPE Offering”) of 35,000 shares of its Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), convertible into 62,701,541 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”), at a conversion price of $0.5582 per share of Common Stock. The 35,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock are referred to herein as the “SPA Preferred Stock Shares.”

 

The issuance of the SPA Preferred Stock Shares is expected to occur within the next five business days.

 

The Investor will pay the $25 million purchase price for the SPA Preferred Stock Shares in the form of BONK tokens (the “Consideration Tokens”), based on the closing price of BONK tokens on August 10, 2025. The Consideration Tokens will be held in the custodian wallet account designated and controlled by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The payment of the Consideration Tokens is expected to occur within the next five business days.

 

On August 8, 2025, the Company also entered into a Revenue Sharing Agreement (the “Revenue Sharing Agreement”) with the Investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue 100,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock, convertible into 179,147,260 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.5582 per share of Common Stock, in exchange for an amount equal to 10% of all gross revenue of LetsBonk.fun in perpetuity. The 100,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock are referred to herein as the “RSA Preferred Stock Shares,” and the SPA Preferred Stock Shares and the RSA Preferred Stock Shares are collectively referred to herein as the “Preferred Stock Shares.”

 

The issuance of the RSA Preferred Stock Shares is expected to occur within the next five business days.

 

The Preferred Stock Shares cannot be converted into more than 19.99% of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock until stockholder approval of such an issuance is obtained.

 

The conversion price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock Shares is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock splits and subsequent rights offerings. There is no trading market available for the Preferred Stock Shares on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system. The Company does not intend to list the Preferred Stock Shares on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.

 

The securities being offered and sold by the Company under the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Revenue Sharing Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. The securities were offered only to accredited investors.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Revenue Sharing Agreement do not purport to be a complete description of such documents and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of each document, forms of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K with regard to the offer and sale of the Preferred Stock Shares to the Investor is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

 

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Revenue Sharing Agreement, on August 11, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Series C Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Series C Certificate of Designation”).

 

The stated value of the Series C Preferred Stock is $1,000 per share.

 

Holders of the Preferred Stock Shares are entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series C Preferred Stock are convertible on the basis of a conversion price of $1.00. The Holders shall vote together with the holders of shares of Common Stock as a single class. The Preferred Stock Shares cannot be voted on an “as converted basis” of more than 19.99% of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock until shareholder approval of such voting rights is obtained.

 

Holders shall be entitled to receive, and the Company shall pay, dividends on Preferred Stock Shares equal (on an as-if-converted-to-Common-Stock basis) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Common Stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of the Common Stock.

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holders of Preferred Stock Shares shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company the same amount that a holder of Common Stock would receive if the Preferred Stock Shares were fully converted (disregarding for such purposes any conversion limitations hereunder) to Common Stock which amounts shall be paid pari passu with all holders of Common Stock.

 

In the event that LetsBonk.fun ceases operations on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the original issuance date of the Preferred Stock Shares, then 50% of the Preferred Stock Shares issued shall be subject to automatic rescission and shall be returned to the Company for cancellation without further action by the Investor or the Company.

 

At all times when the Series C Preferred Stock remains issued and outstanding, (1) the holders of record of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock, exclusively and voting together as a separate class on an as-converted to Common Stock basis, shall be entitled to elect 50% of the directors of the Company (the “Preferred Directors”); and (2) the holders of record of the shares of Common Stock and of any other class or series of voting stock, exclusively and voting together as a single class on an as-converted to Common Stock basis, shall be entitled to elect the balance of the total number of directors of the Company (the “At-Large Directors”). If the holders of shares of the Series C Preferred Stock fail to elect a sufficient number of directors to fill all directorships for which they are entitled to elect directors, then any directorship not so filled shall remain vacant until such time as the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock fill such directorship.

 

The foregoing description of the Series C Certificate of Designation does not purport to be a complete description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Series C Certificate of Designation, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.

The Corporation shall mail written notice of any such Liquidation, not less than 45 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each Holder.

 

 

 

Section 6. Conversion. Holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall have the following rights with respect to the conversion (“Conversion”) of the Series C Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock:

 

(a) Conversions at Option of Holder. Subject to and in compliance with the provisions of this Section 6, upon the Conversion Period Commencement Date, each share of Series C Preferred Stock may, at the option of the Holder, be converted into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as set forth herein, upon notice (a “Notice of Conversion”) to the Corporation. The Holders shall effect conversions by providing the Corporation with a Notice of Conversion that shall specify the Conversion Price, the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted, the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock owned prior to the conversion at issue, the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock owned subsequent to the conversion at issue and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date the Holder delivers such Notice of Conversion to the Corporation (the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion to the Corporation is deemed delivered hereunder. To effect conversions, as the case may be, of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, a Holder shall not be required to surrender the certificate(s) representing such shares of Series C Preferred Stock to the Corporation unless all of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock represented thereby are so converted, in which case the Holder shall deliver the certificate representing such shares of Series C Preferred Stock promptly following the Conversion Date at issue. The Corporation shall issue certificates representing the Conversion Shares promptly, but in no event more than five (5) business days following the date on which requisite Authorized Share Increase Amendment has been filed with and accepted by the State of Delaware, and surrender by a Holder of the certificate(s) representing the converted shares of Series C Preferred Stock to the Corporation (such date that the Corporation is required to deliver such certificate(s), the “Delivery Date”).

 

(b) Conversion Price; Conversion Shares. The “Conversion Price” of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be the lower of the closing price on the Filing Date and the prior average five day closing price immediately preceding the Filing Date. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible into such number of shares of Conversion Shares, subject to adjustment as set forth hereunder, being the result of dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price.

 

(c) Limitations of Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock may not effectuate any Conversion and the Corporation may not issue any shares of Common Stock in connection therewith that would a) exceed the Conversion Limit or b) trigger any Nasdaq requirement to obtain Stockholder Approval prior to a Conversion or any issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection therewith that would be in excess of that number of shares of Common Stock equivalent to 19.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock as of the date hereof (the “Nasdaq Threshold”); provided, however, that the Holders may effectuate any Conversion and the Corporation shall be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock in connection therewith that would not trigger such a requirement. This restriction shall be of no further force or effect upon Stockholder Approval being obtained in compliance with Nasdaq’s stockholder voting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that Stockholder Approval is obtained by consent or authorization of the Corporation’s stockholders, the Holders may not effectuate any Conversion and the Corporation shall not issue any shares of Common Stock in connection therewith in excess of the Nasdaq Threshold until the Approval Effective Date.

 

(d) Stock Splits. If the Corporation, at any time after the Original Issue Date and while at least one share of Series C Preferred Stock is outstanding: (i) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (ii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iii) issues by reclassification of shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, then in each case the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which (x) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and (y) the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the effective date of the applicable event described in subsections (i) through (iii) above.

 

 

 

(e) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 6(d) above, if at any time the Corporation grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired as if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock convertible from Series C Preferred Stock held by such Holder (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Nasdaq Threshold, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Nasdaq Threshold).

 

(f) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 6 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.

 

(g) Reservation of Shares. The Corporation covenants and agrees that any Conversion Shares issued upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The Corporation further covenants and agrees that the Corporation, subject to the filing with and acceptance by the State of Delaware of the Authorized Share Increase Amendment, will have authorized and reserved a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock to provide for issuance of the Conversion Shares upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock.

 

(h) Payment of Taxes. The Corporation and its paying agent shall be entitled to withhold taxes on all payments on the Series C Preferred Stock and Conversion Shares to the extent required by law. Prior to the date of any such payment, each Holder shall deliver to the Corporation or its paying agent a duly executed, valid, accurate and properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8, as applicable. The Corporation shall pay any and all documentary, stamp and similar issue or transfer tax due on (A) the issue of the Series C Preferred Stock and (B) the issue of Conversion Shares; provided, however, in the case of any conversion of Series C Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax or duty that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Conversion Shares in a name other than that of the Holder of the shares to be converted, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or duty, or has established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax or duty has been paid.

 

(h) Buy-In. If the Corporation fails, prior to the applicable Delivery Date, to, at its option, (i) deliver to such Holder the applicable certificate or certificates or (ii) cause its transfer agent to credit the account of such Holder or such Holder’s broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, and if after such Delivery Date such Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm is required to purchase, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion Shares which such Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Corporation shall (A) pay in cash to such Holder the amount by which (x) such Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue (or, if less, the number of shares actually delivered in satisfaction of such sale) multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of such Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) the shares of Series C Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock submitted for conversion or deliver to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with its delivery requirements. For example, if a Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Series C Preferred Stock with respect to which the actual sale price (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to pay such Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Corporation written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Corporation, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Corporation’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

 

 

(i) Partial Liquidated Damages. If the Corporation fails to deliver to a Holder shares of Common Stock by the Delivery Date, the Corporation shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $5,000 of Stated Value of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, $50 per business day (increasing to $100 per business day on the third business day and increasing to $200 per business day on the sixth business day after such damages begin to accrue) for each business day after the Delivery Date until such shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such conversion.

8. MISCELLANEOUS.

 

(a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any provision of law or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any Transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to Buyer or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of Buyer. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

 

20

 

(b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

 

(c) Headings; Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.

 

(d) Expenses. Each party shall be responsible for its own out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents (which include, without limitation, the fees of counsel, auditors and other third-party professionals).

 

(e) Severability; Maximum Payment Amounts. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication that the following is required or applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by any of Buyer, under the Transaction Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to the Buyer, or collection by the Buyer pursuant the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of Buyer, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to Buyer under the Transaction Documents. For greater certainty, to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by Buyer under any of the Transaction Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.

 

21

 

(f) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by the Buyer with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements the Buyer has entered into with, or any instruments the Buyer has received from, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by Buyer in the Company or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any rights of or benefits to the Buyer or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and any Buyer, or any instruments the Buyer received from the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor the Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Buyer, and any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section ‎8(f) shall be binding on the Buyer and holders of Securities, as applicable; provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (A) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding or (B) imposes any obligation or liability on the Buyer without Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Buyer’s sole discretion); and provided further that the provisions of Sections 4 above cannot be amended or waived without the additional prior written approval of the Buyer or its successor. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Buyer may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section ‎8(f) shall be binding on all Buyer and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on the Buyer without Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in Buyer’s sole discretion). No consideration (other than reimbursement of legal fees) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents and all holders of the Preferred Stock Shares. The Company has not, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with the Buyer relating to the terms or conditions of the Transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, Buyer has not made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Company, any Subsidiary or otherwise. As a material inducement for the Buyer to enter into this Agreement, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (x) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by the Buyer, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) unless a provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Documents shall affect Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(i) No Third Party Beneficiaries.

(j) Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants shall survive the Closing. The Buyer shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

24

 

(l) Indemnification.

 

In consideration of the Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer and each holder of any Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary in this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained in this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure properly made by Buyer pursuant to Section 4(k), or (D) the status of Buyer or holder of the Securities either as an investor in the Company pursuant to the Transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable relief). To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

 

(m) Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of, arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of, and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for Buyer (or its broker or other financial representative) to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.

 

(n) Remedies. The Buyer and in the event of assignment by Buyer of its rights and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. The Company therefore agrees that the Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

 

25

 

(o) Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever the Buyer exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company or any Subsidiary does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then Buyer may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

 

(p) Payment Set Aside; Currency. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Buyer hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or if the Buyer enforces or exercises its rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are in United States Dollars (“U.S. Dollars”), and all amounts owing under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall be paid in U.S. Dollars or other digital assets as stipulated herein. All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “Exchange Rate” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars pursuant to this Agreement, the U.S. Dollar exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation.

 

(q) Judgment Currency.

 

(i) If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Company in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in any court in any jurisdiction it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section ‎8(q) referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in US Dollars under this Agreement, the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Trading Day immediately preceding:

 

(1) the date actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date; or

 

26

 

(2) the date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section ‎8(q)(i)(2) being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

 

(ii) If in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section ‎8(q)(i)(2) above, there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of US Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

 

(iii) Any amount due from the Company under this provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

 

(r) Independent Nature of Buyer’s Obligations and Rights. The Company and Buyer confirms that Buyer has independently participated with the Company and its Subsidiaries in the negotiation of the Transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents. The use of a single agreement to effectuate the purchase and sale of the Securities contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of the Buyer, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Buyer.

REVENUE SHARING AGREEMENT

 

This REVENUE SHARING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of August 8, 2025 by and between Lucky Dog Holding, an exempted company, with its registered office at Harneys Fiduciary (Cayman) Limited, 4th Floor, Harbour Place, 103 South Church Street, P.O. Box 10240, Grand Cayman KY1-1002, Cayman Islands (“HoldCo”), and Safety Shot, Inc., a Delaware corporation with offices located at 18801 N Thompson Peak Pkwy Ste 380, Scottsdale, AZ 85255 (“SHOT”). HoldCo and SHOT may be referred to herein collectively as the “Parties” or individually as a “Party”.

 

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, HoldCo currently has the right to at least ten percent (10%) of all of the revenue generated by the memecoin generating platform LetsBONK.fun (“LETSBONK”); and

 

WHEREAS, SHOT has authorized 1,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”), of which 39,933 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and 7,212 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) have been issued as of the date hereof. SHOT also has authorized the creation of a new series of Preferred Stock, namely, a series of convertible preferred stock designated as Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”). The terms governing the Series C Preferred Stock will be as set forth in the certificate of designation for such series of Preferred Stock, which will be disclosed in the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Certificate of Designation provides, among other things, that the Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible into shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of SHOT (“Common Stock”) as further provided therein; and

 

WHEREAS, the Parties wish to create an agreement wherein SHOT transfers One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) of Series C Preferred Stock in exchange for an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of all of the gross revenue of LETSBONK (“LB Interest”), and to create a payment mechanism wherein a certain percentage of the LB Interest (“Return”) is used to purchase BONK coins (“BONK”) and the remaining Return is used for business purposes designated by SHOT; and

 

WHEREAS, the Parties further wish to create the procedures wherein the designated wallet administrator (“Administrator”) conducts sweeps of the LB Interest and then converts 90% of LB Interest to BONK to be held in the SHOT treasuries wallet (“Treasuries Wallet”) and keeps the remaining 10% in the operations wallet (the “Operations Wallet”); and

 

WHEREAS, the shares of Series C Preferred Stock contemplated by this Agreement are issued in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the 1933 Act; and WHEREAS, SHOT is authorized to file the Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Delaware, promptly after the execution of this Agreement.

 

 

 

Such filing is referred to herein as the “Filing Event.” The Filing Event shall occur on the date hereof, promptly after the execution of this Agreement, and shall be deemed to have been completed upon the issuance of a filing receipt by the Delaware Secretary of State. The parties may extend the date of the Filing Event by mutual written consent; and

 

WHEREAS, the shares of Series C Preferred Stock are referred to herein as the “Securities” and will be issued to HoldCo immediately after the Filing Event and subject to the claw back provisions as further defined herein.

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF SECURITIES.

 

a. Purchase of Securities. The consideration contemplated by this Agreement involves the purchase and sale of the Securities. Such purchase and sale shall be governed by the Securities Purchase Agreement set forth in Exhibit A. The closing of the transactions contemplated by such Securities Purchase Agreement shall occur immediately after the Filing Event (the “Closing”).

 

b. Closing. The Closing of the purchase of the Securities by the HoldCo shall take place on the date hereof, immediately after the Filing Event. The date of the Closing is referred to as the “Closing Date”.

 

c. Purchase Price. The aggregate purchase price for the Securities to be purchased by HoldCo (the “Purchase Price”) shall be an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of all gross revenue of LetsBonk.fun in perpetuity.

 

d. Closing Mechanics. On the date hereof, and immediately after the Filing Event, SHOT shall deliver to HoldCo the Securities, duly authorized by SHOT and registered in the name of HoldCo or its designee(s). On the date hereof, and immediately after the Filing Event, HoldCo shall take all necessary steps to guarantee that the LB Interest is assigned to SHOT.

 

e. Six Month Release. The Securities shall be issued to HoldCo upon the Closing, and 50% of the Securities shall remain subject to a rescission in the event LetsBonk.fun ceases operations prior to the date that is six months from the Closing (“Cliff”). In the event LetsBonk.fun ceases operation prior to the expiration of the Cliff, 50% of the Securities shall automatically revert back to SHOT. So long as operations continue past the Cliff, the 50% rescission right shall lapse and no Securities shall be subject to rescission under this Agreement.

 

f. Restriction on Issuance of Capital Stock. For a period of 90 days following the Filing Event, SHOT shall not, without the prior written consent of HoldCo, except as previously disclosed to Holdco in writing, (i) issue or sell shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, (ii) issue any preferred stock, warrant, option, right, contract, call, or other security or instrument granting the holder thereof the right to acquire Common Stock, (iii) enter into any security instrument granting the holder a security interest in any and all assets of the Company, or (iv) file any registration statement on Form S-8.

 

 

 

2. SHARING AND PROCEDURES

 

a. Responsibilities. HoldCo shall be responsible for ensuring the LB Interest is deposited into the designated wallets for the benefit of SHOT. HoldCo and SHOT have identified BitGo, Inc. (“BitGo”) as the digital asset infrastructure company wherein the wallets contemplated by this Agreement will be held. SHOT will be responsible for engaging the Administrator who will be responsible for carrying out the transactions and deposits into the respective wallets.

 

b. Payment Mechanism. The LB Interest shall be an amount equal to 10% of the total gross revenue of LetsBonk.fun and such LB Interest shall be deposited by the Administrator into two separate wallets for the benefit of SHOT. The first wallet shall be designated as the “Revenue Wallet” and shall receive 90% of the LB Interest. The second wallet shall be designated as the Operations Wallet and shall receive 10% of the LB Interest. The interest deposited into the wallets shall be paid in the form of Solana (SOL) or another stablecoin mutually agreed upon by the Parties.

 

c. BONK Purchases. The Administrator shall purchase BONK coins from the Revenue Wallet on a rolling basis meaning as soon as the Revenue Wallet deposits are freely transferrable the Administrator will use all of those coins or funds to purchase BONK coins and deposit the BONK coins in SHOT’s designated Treasuries Wallet. Any fees or costs associated with these purchases shall be paid from the Operations Wallet.

 

d. Reporting. BitGo shall provide a monthly report to both Parties detailing Revenue receipts, BONK coin purchases, and wallet balances.

 

3. SHOT’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

SHOT has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to issue the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Securities Purchase Agreement by SHOT, and the consummation by SHOT of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Securities), are duly authorized by SHOT’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) as constituted as of a time prior to the execution of this Agreement and prior to the Filing Event, and no further filing, consent or authorization is required by SHOT, the Board of Directors or its stockholders or other governing body to consummate this Agreement. This Agreement and the Securities Purchase Agreement have been duly executed and delivered by SHOT, and each constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of SHOT, enforceable against SHOT in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies and except as rights to indemnification and to contribution may be limited by federal or state securities law.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

 

Headings; Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.

 

Expenses. Each party shall be responsible for its own out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and all other related agreements (which include, without limitation, the fees of counsel, auditors and other third-party professionals).

 

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

This Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the HoldCo, SHOT, their subsidiaries, their affiliates and persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by the HoldCo with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the Securities Purchase Agreement, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other transaction document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements the HoldCo has entered into with, or any instruments the HoldCo has received from, SHOT or any of its subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by HoldCo in SHOT or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of SHOT or any of its subsidiaries, or any rights of or benefits to the HoldCo or any other person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among SHOT and/or any of its subsidiaries and the HoldCo, or any instruments the HoldCo received from SHOT and/or any of its subsidiaries prior to the date hereof, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect.

No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the HoldCo may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 6 shall be binding on all HoldCo and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on the HoldCo without HoldCo’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in HoldCo’s sole discretion).

Safety Shot Announces Strategic Alliance with Bonk Founding Contributors, Initiating BONK Treasury Strategy

 

Company to Receive $25 Million in BONK Tokens from Founding Contributors of BONK, Establishing a New Model for Public Company Participation in DeFi

 

SCOTTSDALE, AZ – AUGUST 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Safety Shot, Inc. (Nasdaq: SHOT), today announced a groundbreaking strategic alliance with the BONK founding contributors to deeply integrate the Company with the BONK ecosystem.

 

In preparation for this new strategy, the Company has settled all outstanding debt and currently maintains a strong balance sheet with over $15 million in cash. The agreement will see Safety Shot, Inc., receive an initial allocation of BONK tokens valued at approximately $25 million. In consideration, the Company will issue Preferred Shares at a value of $35 million, which are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

A Strategic Decision to Align with a Market Leader

 

The decision to focus on BONK as the core treasury asset is based on its clear and distinct advantages over its competitors. Built on the high-performance Solana blockchain, BONK benefits from superior technology that enables high-speed, low-cost transactions. This makes it highly efficient for trading and payments, giving it a significant technical edge over competitors like Shiba Inu and Pepe, which are often constrained by the high fees and slower speeds of the Ethereum network. Furthermore, unlike inflationary meme coins such as Dogecoin, BONK features deflationary tokenomics powered by the community. A “burn” mechanism is integrated into its ecosystem by various teams and applications, which permanently removes a portion of the token supply from circulation. This design aims to increase scarcity and support long-term value, powered by the community.

 

As of July 31, BONK holds a market capitalization of over $2 billion, making it the fourth-largest memecoin in the world, according to CoinMarketCap. The token also boasts more than 980,000 on-chain holders, as reported by SolScan, reflecting its widespread adoption.

 

 

 

“This strategic partnership represents the first stage of a much broader corporate evolution for our company,” said Jarrett Boon, CEO of Safety Shot. “By aligning with one of the most exciting ecosystems in digital assets, we are taking a bold first step. We look forward to sharing more details about the full scope of this strategy with our shareholders in the coming days as we continue to lead our beverage brands to new heights.”

 

This partnership is expected to enhance Safety Shot’s financial position, diversify its asset base, and unlock new avenues for shareholder value creation.

Safety Shot Acquires 10% Revenue Sharing Interest in Revenue Generating BONK.fun and Appoints BONK Founding Core Members to Board

 

Company Reserves “BNKK” Ticker Symbol with Nasdaq, Solidifying Full Strategic Pivot

 

SCOTTSDALE, AZ – AUGUST 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Safety Shot, Inc. (Nasdaq: SHOT) today announced it has acquired a 10% revenue sharing interest in the profitable launchpad, BONK.fun. This valuable revenue sharing interest, along with an initial $25 million in BONK tokens, was the primary consideration for the preferred stock transaction announced yesterday.

 

In a landmark move that signals a full alignment of interests, members of the BONK founding core group, including Mitchell Rudy (AKA Nom), will be appointed to the Safety Shot Board of Directors, constituting 50% of the board seats.

 

Further solidifying its commitment to this new direction, Safety Shot also announced it has reserved the ticker symbol “BNKK” with Nasdaq.

 

BONK.fun is a decentralized platform on the Solana blockchain that allows anyone to instantly create and launch new meme coins without needing any coding expertise. It has experienced explosive growth since its launch in April 2025, rapidly becoming a dominant player in its sector. The platform is deeply integrated with the BONK ecosystem. A portion of the revenue it generates is used to buy back and burn BONK tokens on the open market. This creates constant buying pressure and reduces the supply of BONK, which is designed to increase its value and strengthen the entire ecosystem, which in turn drives more activity back to the BONK.fun platform.

 

“We’ve built one of the most powerful, decentralized ecosystems from the ground up. Since our launch on Christmas day 2022, BONK’s growth has been explosive. We have surged to a market capitalization of over $2 billion. By integrating with Safety Shot, Inc., we are creating a first-of-its-kind bridge for public market investors to directly participate in the revenue and growth of one of the most active communities in DeFi. Integrating BONK.fun’s revenue with Safety Shot will be the next step of empowering the token flywheel of BONK. This is the future of how digital assets and traditional finance will merge, and we’re thrilled to build that future here”, says Mitchell Rudy, one the founding core contributors of BONK.”

 

Unlike other crypto strategies that have been announced, BONK.fun is different in the fact that investors will be participating in revenues generated by the platform rather than earning fees from staking.

 

 

 

Rudy says, “Staking offers a relatively stable, but limited, yield that is always at the mercy of the underlying token’s price. The revenue share offers uncapped, exponential growth potential tied to the success of a market-leading business. It’s a bet on the growth of an entire sector, not just a single asset. For Safety Shot investors, this means the Company’s value is being tied to a real, high-margin, cash flow stream, which is a much more powerful and exciting proposition than simply holding tokens and hoping they go up.”

 

In July 2025 alone, letsBONK.fun generated over $35 million in user fees. This level of profitability places it among the top 10 most profitable decentralized applications in the entire world, alongside major crypto exchanges and lending protocols, according to data from analytics platform DefiLlama. Safety Shot will reinvest approximately 90% of its revenue income from BONK.fun into a treasury of BONK tokens, creating a powerful growth model for the Company. BONK has solidified its position as a top meme coin globally and the mascot of the Solana blockchain.

 

As a decentralized digital platform, BONK.fun’s operating costs are incredibly low relative to its revenue. This means as revenue grows the vast majority of that revenue can flow directly to profit, which will then be used to buy BONK tokens and add them to the treasury.

 

The platform’s activity has been immense. On peak days, it has facilitated the launch of over 20,000 new tokens in a single 24-hour period. This massive volume of new projects drives significant economic activity, with daily trading volume on the platform has exceeded $100 million.

 

“Today’s announcements represent the next logical step in our corporate evolution,” said Jarrett Boon, CEO of Safety Shot. “Acquiring a direct revenue stream from letsBONK.fun, welcoming the visionary BONK founding core team to our board, and reserving the ‘BNKK’ ticker symbol are clear and deliberate actions. This strategy goes far beyond simply holding tokens; we are deeply integrating our public company with a proven, revenue-generating leader in the digital asset space. We are confident this model will unlock significant long-term value for our shareholders, following a successful blueprint that has been well-received by the market.”

 

The constant creation of new meme coins on Solana is like a modern-day gold rush. BONK.fun profits by selling “picks and shovels” to every token creator. It takes a fee from the volume of activity.
