Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Arrangement Agreement

On January 7, 2025, Yerbaé Brands Corp. (“Yerbaé”), a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, entered into a definitive Arrangement Agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with Safety Shot, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Safety Shot”), pursuant to which, among other things, Safety Shot will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Yerbaé (the “Arrangement”). The Arrangement will be implemented by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and is subject to approval by the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”), the stockholders of Safety Shot and the shareholders of Yerbaé, and subject to other customary closing conditions for a transaction of this nature and size.

Consideration

On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement, at the effective time of the Arrangement (the “Effective Time”) all of the common shares of Yerbaé then issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including the common shares of Yerbaé to be issued on the settlement of all of the performance share units and restricted share units of Yerbaé, which will be settled immediately prior to the Effective Time) will be acquired by Safety Shot in consideration for an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of common stock of Safety Shot (collectively, the “Consideration Shares). Each option (each a “Replaced Option”) to purchase common shares of Yerbaé outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether or not vested) will be deemed to be exchanged for an option (“Replacement Option”) entitling the holder to purchase shares of common stock of Safety Shot. The number of shares of common stock of the Company underlying each Replacement Option will equal the number of common shares of Yerbaé underlying the corresponding Replaced Option multiplied by the exchange ratio. The exercise price of each Replacement Option will equal the exercise price of the corresponding Replaced Option divided by the exchange ratio and each Replacement Option will be fully vested. In accordance with the respective terms of Yerbaé’s outstanding warrants and debentures, the terms of each warrant and debenture of Yerbaé will entitle the holder thereof to receive, upon exercise or conversion, as applicable, in substitution for the number of Yerbaé common shares subject to such warrant or debenture, such number of shares of Safety Shot common stock multiplied by the exchange ratio. In addition, if the Arrangement is consummated, Safety Shot will pay up to $500,000 of Yerbaé’s transaction expenses.

Representations and Warranties; Covenants

Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, each of Yerbaé and Safety Shot made customary representations and warranties for transactions of this type. All of the representations and warranties of Yerbaé and Safety Shot will expire and be terminated at the Effective Time. Each of Yerbaé and Safety Shot have also agreed to be bound by certain covenants that are customary for transactions of this type, including obligations of the parties during the period between the date of the execution of the Arrangement Agreement and the Effective Time (the “Interim Period”) to, in all material respects, conduct their respective businesses in the ordinary course consistent with past practice, and to refrain from taking certain specified actions without the prior written consent of the other party, in each case, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications. The covenants and agreements of Yerbaé and Safety Shot that by their terms are to be performed at or after the Effective Time shall, in each case, survive until fully performed.

Closing Conditions

The respective obligations of each party to consummate the Arrangement are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary mutual closing conditions, including (i) the issuance of the interim and final orders by the Court with respect to the Arrangement; (ii) the adoption by the requisite Yerbaé shareholders of a resolution approving the Arrangement (the “Yerbaé Shareholder Approval”); (iii) the approval by the requisite Safety Shot stockholders of the issuance of the Consideration Shares and an amended and restated equity incentive plan reserving a number of shares of Safety Shot common stock equal to no less than 10% of the fully diluted shares of Safety Shot common stock issued and outstanding immediately following the Effective Time (the “Safety Shot Stockholder Approval”); (iv) the absence of any law or order prohibiting, rendering illegal or permanently enjoining the consummation of the Arrangement; (v) the obtainment of any regulatory approvals required in connection with the Plan of Arrangement, except for such approvals the failure of which to obtain would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the parties or would not materially impede or delay the completion of the Arrangement; (vi) the approval by the TSX Venture Exchange; (vii) the approval of the listing of the Consideration Shares by Nasdaq; (viii) the exemption of the issuance of the Consideration Shares from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof; (ix) that the representations of the other party in the Arrangement Agreement are true and correct as of the date of the Arrangement Agreement and the Effective Time (subject to certain materiality qualifiers) and (x) that the other party will have complied in all material respects with its covenants in the Arrangement Agreement.

The obligation of Yerbaé to consummate the Arrangement is conditioned upon: (i) Safety Shot appointing Todd Gibson to the board of directors of Safety Shot as of the Effective Time; and (ii) that there will not have occurred during the Interim Period any material adverse effect with respect to Safety Shot.

Additionally, the obligation of Safety Shot to consummate the Arrangement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions, among others: (i) that there will not have occurred during the Interim Period any material adverse effect with respect to Yerbaé; (ii) that Safety Shot shall have received Support Agreements (as defined below) from certain shareholders of Yerbaé representing not less than 40.1% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Yerbaé (collectively, the “Supporting Yerbaé Shareholders”) no later than 30 days following the date of the Arrangement Agreement (and such shareholders shall not have breached their obligations or covenants thereunder in any material respect as of the Effective Time); and (iii) that the Yerbaé shareholders shall have not validly exercised and not withdrawn dissent rights with respect to more than 5% of the common shares of Yerbaé then outstanding.

Termination

The Arrangement Agreement may be terminated prior to the Effective Time, including, among others, (i) by the mutual written consent of both parties; (ii) by either party if the Yerbaé Shareholder Approval or Safety Shot Stockholder Approval are not obtained at the applicable securityholder meeting; (iii) by either party if the Effective Time shall not have occurred prior to July 7, 2025, unless such party’s failure to fulfill any of its obligations has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Effective Time to occur by such date; (iv) by either party if the closing conditions for such party’s benefit have failed to be satisfied or waived by the date required for performance thereof and, if capable of cure and not the result of a willful breach, the other party has not cured such failure within 10 days of its receipt of notice thereof; (v) by either party if the other party has breached certain representations, warranties or covenants, subject to certain materiality and other qualifications (a “Termination for Breach”); and (vi) by either party if there has occurred a material adverse effect with respect to the other party that is incapable of cure.

Yerbaé has additional termination rights if (i) prior to the receipt of the Yerbaé Shareholder Approval, the board of directors of Yerbaé authorizes Yerbaé to enter into a definitive written agreement with respect to a superior proposal, Yerbaé is otherwise in compliance with its non-solicit obligations under the Arrangement Agreement and Yerbaé pays Safety Shot a termination fee of $1,750,000 plus up to $250,000 of Safety Shot’s transaction expenses (the “Termination Fee”); or (ii) the board of directors of Safety Shot, among other things, withdraws or changes its recommendation with respect to Safety Shot Stockholder Approval, in which case Safety Shot will be obligated to pay to Yerbaé a fee of $500,000 plus up to $250,000 of transaction expenses (the “Expense Reimbursement Fee”). Safety Shot has additional termination rights if (i) Yerbaé breaches its non-solicit obligations under the Arrangement Agreement or (ii) the board of directors of Yerbaé, among other things, withdraws or changes its recommendation with respect to the Yerbaé Shareholder Approval, and, in each case, such termination would result in Yerbaé being obligated to pay the Termination Fee to Safety Shot. If either party effects a Termination for Breach, such party will owe the non-terminating party the Expense Reimbursement Fee.

The foregoing description of the Arrangement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Arrangement Agreement filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Arrangement Agreement provides investors with information regarding its terms and is not intended to provide any other factual information about the parties. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Arrangement Agreement were made as of the execution date of the Arrangement Agreement only and are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided by the parties in connection with the signing of the Arrangement Agreement. These disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies, and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Arrangement Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Arrangement Agreement may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Arrangement Agreement as characterizations of the actual statements of fact about the parties. Any terms not defined herein shall have the same meaning attributed to them in the Arrangement Agreement.

Fairness Opinion

Yerbaé has obtained an independent fairness opinion from Evans & Evans, Inc. (“Evans & Evans”) dated December 30, 2024, which states that in the opinion of Evans & Evans, the consideration being offered to the shareholders of Yerbaé is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Yerbaé shareholders.

Support Agreements

In connection with entry into the Arrangement Agreement, Safety Shot will, within 30 days of the execution of the Arrangement Agreement, enter into support agreements (each, a “Support Agreement”) with Supporting Yerbaé Shareholders. Pursuant to the Support Agreements, each Supporting Yerbaé Shareholder will agree, among other things, to vote its respective shares in favor of the Yerbaé Shareholder Approval.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits filed herewith contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this report or the exhibits filed herewith, including statements regarding the Arrangement and closing thereof, Yerbaé’s or Safety Shot’s future results of operations and financial position, Yerbaé’s and Safety Shot’s business strategy, prospective costs, timing and likelihood of success, plans and objectives of management for future operations, future results of current and anticipated operations of Yerbaé and Safety Shot, and the expected value of the combined company after the transaction, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the following risks relating to the proposed transaction: the risk that the transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Safety Shot’s securities; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the definitive Arrangement Agreement; the inability to complete the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, including due to failure to obtain approval of the stockholders of Yerbaé or Safety Shot or other conditions to closing in the Arrangement Agreement; the inability to obtain or maintain the listing of Safety Shot’s common stock on Nasdaq following the transaction; the risk that the transaction disrupts current plans and operations of Safety Shot as a result of the announcement and consummation of the transaction; the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the transaction, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth economically and hire and retain key employees; costs related to the transaction; changes in applicable laws or regulations; the possibility that Yerbaé or Safety Shot may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and other risks and uncertainties to be identified in the joint proxy statement (when available) relating to the transaction, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and in other filings with the SEC made by Yerbaé or Safety Shot. Moreover, Yerbaé and Safety Shot operate in very competitive and rapidly changing environments. Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond Yerbaé’s and Safety Shot’s control, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. None of Yerbaé or Safety Shot gives any assurance that either Yerbaé or Safety Shot will achieve its expectations. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and except as required by law, Yerbaé and Safety Shot assume no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

- 49 -

(iv)

at least ten (10) full Business Days (the “Matching Period”) have elapsed from the date on which Safety Shot received the Superior Proposal Notice;

during any Matching Period, Safety Shot has had the opportunity (but not the obligation), in accordance with Section 4.4(b), to offer to amend this Agreement and the Arrangement in order for such Acquisition Proposal to cease to be a Superior Proposal and Yerbaé has negotiated, and caused its Representatives to negotiate, in good faith with Safety Shot to the extent Safety Shot wishes to negotiate any revisions to the terms of this Agreement that Safety Shot proposes pursuant to Section 4.4(b);

(vi)

after the Matching Period, the Yerbaé Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal (if applicable, compared to the terms of the Arrangement as proposed to be amended by Safety Shot under Section 4.4(b)); and

prior to or concurrently with entering into such definitive agreement or withdrawing or modifying the Yerbaé Board Recommendation, Yerbaé terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(vii)(B) and pays Safety Shot the Termination Fee.

During the Matching Period: (a) the Yerbaé Board shall review any offer made by Safety Shot under this Section 4.4(b) to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement in good faith in order to determine whether such proposal would, upon acceptance, result in the Acquisition Proposal previously constituting a Superior Proposal ceasing to be a Superior Proposal; and (b) Yerbaé shall negotiate in good faith with Safety Shot to make such amendments to the terms of this Agreement or the Plan of Arrangement as would enable Safety Shot to proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on such amended terms.

(c)

Each successive amendment or modification to any Acquisition Proposal that results in an increase in, or modification of, the Consideration (or value of such Consideration) to be received by Yerbaé Shareholders or other material terms or conditions thereof shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for the purposes of this Section 4.4, and Safety Shot shall be afforded a new Matching Period from the later of the date on which Safety Shot received the Superior Proposal Notice with respect to the new Superior Proposal from Yerbaé.

- 50 -

(d)

At the written request of Safety Shot, the Yerbaé Board shall promptly reaffirm the Yerbaé Board Recommendation by press release after any Acquisition Proposal which the Yerbaé Board has determined not to be a Superior Proposal is publicly announced or publicly disclosed or the Yerbaé Board determines that a proposed amendment to the terms of this Agreement or the Plan of Arrangement as contemplated under Section 4.4(b) would result in an Acquisition Proposal no longer being a Superior Proposal. Yerbaé shall provide Safety Shot and its outside legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the form and content of any such press release and shall make all reasonable amendments to such press release as requested by Safety Shot and its counsel.

Further, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Yerbaé Board from making any disclosure to the Yerbaé Shareholders if the Yerbaé Board, acting in good faith and upon the advice of its outside legal and financial advisors, shall have determined that the failure to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Yerbaé Board or such disclosure is otherwise required under Applicable Law; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the Yerbaé Board shall be permitted to make such disclosure, the Yerbaé Board shall not be permitted to make a Change in Recommendation, other than as permitted by Section 4.4(a) and provided that Yerbaé shall provide Safety Shot and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review the form and content of such disclosure and shall give reasonable consideration to any comments made by Safety Shot and its counsel.

(f)

Any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.4 by the Yerbaé Subsidiaries or Yerbaé’s or the Yerbaé Subsidiaries’ respective Representatives shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 4.4 by Yerbaé. Furthermore, Yerbaé shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 4.4 by the Yerbaé Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives.

There has not been any violation of Applicable Law or regulation by any of Yerbaé or any Yerbaé Subsidiary in its product development efforts, submissions or reports to any regulatory authority that could reasonably be expected to require investigation, corrective action or enforcement action, except where such violation would not be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Yerbaé Material Adverse Effect.

(qq)

Suppliers and Distributors. No supplier or distributor has notified Yerbaé or any Yerbaé Subsidiary, and to the knowledge of Yerbaé or any Yerbaé Subsidiary, as the case may be, there is no reason to believe that any such supplier or distributor will not continue dealing with Yerbaé or any Yerbaé Subsidiary on substantially the same terms as presently conducted, subject to changes in pricing and volume in the ordinary course.

(rr)

Governmental Licences. Yerbaé and each Yerbaé Subsidiary possess or has applied for all Permits, licences, approvals, consents and other Authorizations (collectively, “Governmental Licences”) issued by the appropriate federal, provincial, state, local or foreign regulatory agencies or bodies necessary to conduct the business now operated by them, except where the failure to hold such Governmental Licences would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Yerbaé Material Adverse Effect in respect of Yerbaé or any Yerbaé Subsidiary, as applicable. Yerbaé and each Yerbaé Subsidiary is in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Governmental Licences, except where the failure so to comply would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Yerbaé Material Adverse Effect in respect of Yerbaé or any Yerbaé Subsidiary, as applicable.

(ss)

Non-Reliance. Safety Shot acknowledges that none of Yerbaé, any Yerbaé Subsidiary, nor any Yerbaé Shareholder makes any representation or warranty with respect to Yerbaé, any Yerbaé Subsidiary or the Arrangement other than those expressly set forth in this Section 5.2 or any other agreement or instrument entered into by Yerbaé pursuant to this Agreement, and Safety Shot has not relied on any statement of any Person in entering into this Agreement other than such express representations and warranties.

5.3

Survival of Representations and Warranties

The representations and warranties of Yerbaé and Safety Shot contained in this Agreement shall not survive the completion of the Arrangement and shall expire and be terminated at the Effective Time. This Section 5.3 shall not limit any undertaking, obligation, covenant or agreement of whatever nature of Yerbaé or Safety Shot which, by its terms, contemplates performance after the Effective Time or date on which this Agreement is terminated, as the case may be.

(a)

(B)

within twelve (12) months following the date of such termination, any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not such Acquisition Proposal is the same Acquisition Proposal referred to in clause (i) above) is (A) consummated or effected, or (B) Yerbaé and/or any of the Yerbaé Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, in one or more transactions, enters into a definitive agreement (other than a confidentiality agreement permitted by and in accordance with Sections 4.1 or 4.4) in respect of an Acquisition Proposal (whether or not such Acquisition Proposal is the same Acquisition Proposal referred to in clause (i) above) and such Acquisition Proposal is later consummated or effected (whether or not within twelve (12) months following such termination),

provided that, for the purposes of this Section 8.2(c)(iv), the term “Acquisition Proposal” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 1.1, except that references to “20% or more” shall be deemed to be references to “50% or more.”

(d)

If a Termination Fee Event occurs, Yerbaé shall pay the Termination Fee to Safety Shot by wire transfer of immediately available funds, as follows:

(i)

if the Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Sections 8.2(c)(i) or 8.2(c)(ii), the Termination Fee shall be payable within two (2) Business Days following such termination;

- 83 -

(f)

If this Agreement shall have been terminated (i) by Safety Shot pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(vi)(C) [Breach of Yerbaé Representations, Warranties or Covenants], or (ii) by Yerbaé pursuant to Section 8.1(a)(vii)(A) [Breach of Safety Shot Representations, Warranties or Covenants] or Section 8.1(a)(vi)(C) [Safety Shot Change of Recommendation], the non-terminating Party shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the terminating Party by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount, after deduction for any applicable withholding Tax on such payment, equal to $500,000 plus the Transaction Expenses of the terminating Party, but in no event shall such aggregate amount exceed $750,000 (the “Expense Reimbursement”), such payment to be made within one (1) Business Day of any such termination. Yerbaé or Safety Shot shall only be obligated to pay the Expense Reimbursement once pursuant to this Section 8.2(f). No Expense Reimbursement shall be payable pursuant to this Section 8.2(f) if Yerbaé has paid the Termination Fee.

(g)

Each Party acknowledges that the payment amounts set forth in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements the Parties would not enter into this Agreement, and that the payment amounts set forth in this Section 8.2 represent liquidated Damages which are a genuine pre-estimate of the Damages, including opportunity costs, reputational Damages and expenses, which the Party entitled to such Damages will suffer or incur as a result of the event giving rise to such payment and the resultant termination of this Agreement and are not penalties and shall be the sole remedy at law or in equity with respect thereto. Yerbaé irrevocably waives any right it may have to raise as a defence that any such liquidated Damages are excessive or punitive. For greater certainty, each Party agrees that, upon any termination of this Agreement under circumstances where a Party is entitled to the applicable Termination Fee or Expense Reimbursement and such amount is paid in full, the Party entitled to such amount shall be precluded from any other remedy against the other Party under Applicable Law or in equity or otherwise (including, without limitation, an order for specific performance), and shall not seek to obtain any recovery, judgment, or Damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive Damages, against the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, Stockholders or affiliates or their respective representatives in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. In no event shall a Party be entitled to collect the applicable Termination Fee or Expense Reimbursement on more than one occasion.

(h)

The Parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in Section 8.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements the Parties would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if Yerbaé or Safety Shot, as applicable, fails to pay the Termination Fee or Expense Reimbursement when due and, in order to obtain such payment, the other Party commences a suit that results in a judgment against Yerbaé or Safety Shot, as applicable, for the Termination Fee or Expense Reimbursement, such breaching Party shall pay to the other Party (a) its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit; and (b) interest on the Termination Fee or Expense Reimbursement, as applicable, from the date the Termination Fee or Expense Reimbursement, as applicable, becomes due and payable at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, in effect on the date of the termination of this Agreement plus five percent (5%).

	●	Yerbaé creates clean, simple, and delicious plant-based energy beverages that are “better-for-you”

	●	Yerbaé had approximately $12 million in revenue for the fiscal year ending 2023

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – (Globe Newswire) – January 8, 2025 – Safety Shot, Inc. (Nasdaq: SHOT) (“SHOT”, “Safety Shot”, or the “Company”), a wellness and dietary supplement company, and Yerbaé Brands Corp. (TSX-V: YERB.U; OTCQX: YERBF) (“Yerbaé”), a plant-based energy beverage company, today announced the execution of a definitive arrangement agreement dated January 7, 2025 (the “Arrangement Agreement”) that will seek to redefine the landscape of healthy and functional beverages. This proposed strategic acquisition (the “Transaction”) looks to bring together Safety Shot’s innovative wellness solutions with Yerbaé’s popular line of plant-based energy drinks, adding a company that generated approximately $12 million of revenue in fiscal year 2023 and creating a powerful platform for potential accelerated growth and market leadership.

A Complementary Partnership for Growth

Yerbaé, founded in 2017 by Todd and Karrie Gibson, is a rapidly growing brand that has captured the attention of health-conscious consumers with its clean, simple, and delicious plant-based energy beverages. With approximately $12 million in revenue for its fiscal year ending 2023 against $5.9 million in cost of sales, Yerbaé has demonstrated its ability to resonate with a large and expanding market seeking healthier alternatives to traditional energy drinks. Yerbaé’s beverages are specifically formulated to provide a more refreshing taste than coffee, with added benefits compared to existing sodas and sparkling waters, and healthier ingredients than traditional energy drinks. Yerbaé’s product line aligns with a variety of healthy lifestyles, including non-GMO, Keto, Vegan, Kosher, Paleo, and gluten-free diets.

“We believe that this acquisition could be a significant revenue catalyst for Safety Shot on top of an expected revenue growth rate of 50% expected in Q4, versus Q3” said John Gulyas, Chairman of SHOT. “We believe Yerbaé’s impressive growth and established presence in the plant-based beverage market, generating approximately $12 million in revenue in fiscal year 2023, could be instrumental in driving our potential growth.”

Todd Gibson, Chief Executive Officer of Yerbaé, added, “We are thrilled to join forces with Safety Shot and leverage their expertise and resources to potentially accelerate our growth. We believe that the Transaction will provide us with access to new distribution channels, expanded marketing capabilities, and valuable synergies that will look to benefit both brands.”

Compelling Strategic and Financial Benefits

1. Leveraging Yerbaé’s Robust Distribution and Customer Relationships

Yerbaé has established a strong network of distribution channels and deep customer relationships across multiple regions. By merging with SHOT, we believe Yerbaé’s proven ability to penetrate retail markets can be extended to SHOT’s product lines, potentially driving greater visibility and availability for both companies’ beverages. We believe that this could create a platform for rapid market expansion, increased sales velocity, and a broader consumer base.

●

Sales and Distribution Value for Public Markets:

	○	If the Transaction is consummated, SHOT will gain immediate access to Yerbaé’s well-established retail partnerships, including key grocery, convenience, and specialty store channels, which could accelerate product placement and consumer adoption.

	○	Yerbaé’s distribution partners are expected to provide SHOT with access to high-volume markets where demand for functional and energy beverages is growing rapidly.

	○	Cross-leveraging Yerbaé’s strong customer relationships is expected to enable SHOT to tap into Yerbaé’s existing retail programs and promotional initiatives, which could potentially reduce the time-to-market for SHOT’s product lines.

	○	The Transaction supports shared logistics and supply chain efficiencies, which could optimize distribution costs and improve margins for both Yerbaé and SHOT.

	○	We believe that Yerbaé’s expertise in launching and scaling products can be applied to SHOT’s product lines, which could enhance their visibility and growth trajectory in both the U.S. and Canada.

2. Synergies Between Yerbaé’s Robust Supply Chain and SHOT’s Emerging Supply Chain

The Transaction brings together Yerbaé’s well-developed, scalable supply chain with SHOT’s emerging supply chain capabilities, which are expected to create significant operational synergies:

	●	Optimization of Resources: Yerbaé’s established supplier relationships and logistics infrastructure can help streamline SHOT’s procurement processes, reducing costs and improving efficiency.

	●	Scalability: SHOT is expected to benefit from Yerbaé’s ability to scale production quickly to meet increased demand, ensuring timely fulfillment of larger orders and facilitating market expansion.

	●	Improved Logistics: Combining supply chain networks will seek to enhance distribution coverage, minimize delivery lead times, and potentially allow for better inventory management across markets.

	●	Innovation in Sourcing: Yerbaé’s supply chain expertise can help SHOT implement best practices in sourcing sustainable and high-quality ingredients, supporting both companies’ growth ambitions and brand positioning.

	●	Shared Efficiencies: The Transaction is expected to enable shared warehousing, transportation, and fulfillment resources, which could drive down operational costs.

3. Supercharging Product Portfolios

The Transaction brings together two innovative beverage portfolios with distinct market appeal. We believe that Yerbaé’s functional beverages and SHOT’s targeted energy drink products complement one another, creating opportunities for cross-promotion and bundling strategies. Together, the combined company hopes to be positioned to meet diverse consumer demands for healthier, functional, and performance-based beverages.

4. Fostering a Robust Pipeline of Innovation

Both Yerbaé and SHOT have demonstrated a strong commitment to innovation, with a robust pipeline of new product concepts that align with evolving consumer trends:

	●	Accelerated Product Development: The Transaction will look to streamline research and development processes, potentially allowing for faster innovation and more efficient product launches.

	●	Shared Expertise: Yerbaé’s experience in developing functional beverages and SHOT’s expertise in targeted energy drinks will strive to foster collaborative innovation, driving new product ideas and formulations.

	●	Market Responsiveness: By leveraging shared insights and resources, the combined entity intends to be well-positioned to respond quickly to changing consumer preferences and market demands.

	●	Innovation at Scale: The merged company will strive to ensure greater investment in product development, potentially driving long-term growth through an innovative and differentiated product pipeline.

5. Significant Cost Savings Across the System

The Transaction intends to deliver meaningful cost savings through operational efficiencies and the consolidation of key external functions:

	●	Streamlined Professional Services: Combining efforts under one auditor and one legal team will look to significantly reduce administrative costs.

	●	Team Synergies: The integration of sales, distribution, finance, and operations teams are expected to allow for improved collaboration, reduced redundancies, and cost savings across the system.

	●	External Supplier Efficiencies: The combined entity intends to leverage economies of scale when negotiating with external suppliers, which could potentially reduce costs for procurement, packaging, and logistics.

	●	Operational Excellence: Shared processes and infrastructure may enhance cost efficiency across the supply chain, potentially creating long-term savings and improving margins.

6. The Power of Yerbaé’s Experienced Team

Yerbaé’s leadership team has a track record of executing growth strategies and navigating competitive beverage markets. We believe that their expertise in product development, branding, and scaling distribution could be instrumental in integrating SHOT’s operations and realizing the full potential of the combined entity. This leadership will look to drive operational efficiencies, improve margins, and accelerate growth.

7. Market Positioning and Global Growth Potential

The Transaction is intended to create a stronger, more diversified beverage company with a presence in both Canadian and U.S. markets. We believe that this dual-market access enhances the combined company’s ability to scale internationally, capitalize on emerging trends in functional and energy beverages, and attract institutional and retail investors across borders.

Enhancing Shareholder Value Through Strategic Acquisition

The Transaction marks a significant milestone for Safety Shot, building on a year of notable achievements, including:

	●	Securing major new distribution deals with 7-Eleven corporate stores in the Chicagoland area, multiple convenience store chains across the US, and major grocery chains;

	●	Launching innovative product formats like Sure Shot in 4-ounce bottles and on-the-go stick packs;

	●	Forming key partnerships with companies like KeHE Distributors and Capital Drugs;

	●	Achieving positive clinical trial results confirming the reduction of blood alcohol content in study participants;

	●	Successfully raising capital to fuel further growth; and

	●	Rebranding its flagship product from “Safety Shot” to “Sure Shot.”

These achievements have contributed to the Company’s strong momentum and an anticipated 50% revenue growth in the fourth quarter. Additionally, Safety Shot expanded its e-commerce presence on platforms like Walmart.com and Amazon, announced its intention to focus on business-to-business (B2B) sales, and mentioned plans to expand into international markets, specifically Canada, in 2025.

Leadership & Integration

The combined company will be led by an experienced management team with deep expertise in the wellness and beverage industries. The integration process will be carefully managed to ensure a smooth transition. Safety Shot’s existing management team will continue to lead the company, with Yerbaé’s leadership team assuming secondary management roles.

Market Opportunity

The global plant-based energy beverage market is growing rapidly, driven by demand for healthier and more sustainable alternatives to traditional energy drinks. We believe that this Transaction positions Safety Shot to capitalize on this trend and potentially secure a substantial market share. The global plant-based energy drink market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 6.7% from 2024 to 2033, reaching a value of $10.5 billion by 2033 (Source: Market.us). The global wellness market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.9% from 2020 to 2025, reaching a value of $7 trillion by 2025 (Source: Global Wellness Institute).

Transaction Overview

Pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, at the effective time of the arrangement (the “Effective Time”), all of the common shares (each, a “Yerbaé Share”) of Yerbaé then issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including the Yerbaé Shares to be issued on the settlement of all of the performance share units and restricted share units of Yerbaé, which will be settled immediately prior to the Effective Time) will be acquired by the Company in consideration for the right to receive an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of common stock (each, a “SHOT Share”) of the Company, translating into a basic equity value of $15.2 million and an enterprise value of $19.7 million respectfully. Post closing of the Transaction, SHOT shareholders are expected to own approximately 75.8% and former holders of the Yerbaé Shares are expected to own approximately 24.2% of the combined company.

The Transaction will be effected by way of a plan of arrangement pursuant (the “Plan of Arrangement”) to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, SHOT will acquire all of the issued and outstanding Yerbaé Shares, with each holder of Yerbaé Shares expected to receive 0.2918 of a SHOT Share for each Yerbaé Share held, implying a current market price per Yerbaé Share of US$0.76, based on the closing share price of the SHOT Shares on January 6, 2025. Each outstanding Yerbaé restricted share unit and performance share unit is expected to have its vesting accelerated and be settled for Yerbaé Shares immediately prior to the completion of the Transaction. Each option (each, a “Replaced Option”) to purchase common shares of Yerbaé outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether or not vested) will be deemed to be exchanged for an option (each, a “Replacement Option”) entitling the holder to purchase shares of common stock of the Company. The number of shares of common stock of the Company underlying each Replacement Option will equal the number of common shares of Yerbaé underlying the Replaced Option multiplied by the applicable exchange ratio. The exercise price of each Replacement Option will equal the exercise price of the corresponding Replaced Option divided by the exchange ratio and each Replacement Option will be fully vested. In accordance with the respective terms of Yerbaé’s outstanding warrants and debentures, the terms of each warrant and debenture of Yerbaé will entitle the holder thereof to receive, upon exercise or conversion, as applicable, in substitution for the number of Yerbaé common shares subject to such warrant or debenture, a number of shares of Company common stock.

The Transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2025, subject to satisfying certain customary closing conditions, including: (i) the receipt of approvals from both SHOT’s and Yerbaé’s shareholders; (ii) the issuance of interim and final orders by the Supreme Court of British Columbia; (iii) the absence of any law or order prohibiting, rendering illegal or permanently enjoining the consummation of the Arrangement; (iv) the obtainment of any regulatory approvals required in connection with the Plan of Arrangement, except for such approvals the failure of which to obtain would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the parties or would not materially impede or delay the completion of the Arrangement; (v) the approval by the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”); (vi) the approval of the listing of the SHOT Shares by Nasdaq; (vii) the exemption of the issuance of the SHOT Shares from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) thereof; (viii) that the representations of the other party in the Arrangement Agreement are true and correct as of the date of the Arrangement Agreement and the Effective Time (subject to certain materiality qualifiers) and (ix) that the other party will have complied in all material respects with its covenants in the Arrangement Agreement, among other customary closing conditions for a transaction of this nature and size.

Additionally, the obligation of the Company to consummate the Arrangement is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions, among others: (i) that there will not have occurred during the Interim Period any material adverse effect with respect to Yerbaé; (ii) that the Company shall have received Support Agreements (as defined below) from certain shareholders of Yerbaé representing not less than 40.1% of the issued and outstanding Yerbaé Shares no later than 30 days following the date of the Arrangement Agreement (and such shareholders shall not have breached their obligations or covenants thereunder in any material respect as of the Effective Time); and (iii) that the Yerbaé shareholders shall have not validly exercised and not withdrawn dissent rights with respect to more than 5% of the Yerbaé Shares then outstanding.

The obligation of Yerbaé to consummate the Arrangement is also conditioned upon (i) the Company appointing Todd Gibson to the board of directors of Shot (the “SHOT Board”) as of the Effective Time and (ii) that there will not have occurred during the Interim Period any material adverse effect with respect to the Company.

The Arrangement Agreement also contains customary representations, warranties and covenants made by Safety Shot and Yerbaé, including covenants that both parties will during the period between the date of the execution of the Arrangement Agreement and the Effective Time (the “Interim Period”), in all material respects, conduct their respective businesses in the ordinary course consistent with past practice, and to refrain from taking certain specified actions without the prior written consent of the other party, in each case, subject to certain exceptions and qualifications.

Implementation of the Transaction is subject to the approval of at least (i) two-thirds (66 2/3%) of the votes cast by the holders of the Yerbaé Shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting of holders of Yerbaé Shares held to consider the Transaction, voting as a single class; (ii) if required pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”), the approval of the majority of the votes cast by the holder of the Yerbaé Shares, excluding the votes of shareholders whose votes are required to be excluded for the purposes of “minority approval” pursuant to MI 61-101; and (iii) the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by the SHOT stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting of holders of SHOT stockholders to consider the Transaction.

The Transaction has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of Yerbaé (the “Yerbaé Board”) and SHOT. The Yerbaé Board has unanimously determined, after receiving financial and legal advice along with the Yerbaé Fairness Opinion (as defined below), that the Transaction is in the best interests of Yerbaé and is fair to the Yerbaé shareholders and the Yerbaé Board recommends that the Yerbaé shareholders vote in favor of the Transaction. The SHOT Board has, after receiving financial and legal advice along with the SHOT Fairness Opinion (as defined below), recommends that the SHOT shareholders vote in favor of the Transaction.

Evans & Evans, Inc. provided the Yerbaé Board with a fairness opinion, dated December 30, 2024, to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion, the consideration payable pursuant to the Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Yerbaé Shareholders, in each case, based upon and subject to the respective assumptions, limitations, qualifications and other matters set forth in such opinions (the “Yerbaé Fairness Opinion”). Newbridge Securities Corporation provided the SHOT Board with an oral opinion, dated January 7, 2025, to the effect that, as of the date of such opinion, the consideration being offered by SHOT to the Yerbaé shareholders pursuant to the Transaction, is fair, from a financial point of view, to the SHOT shareholders, based upon and subject to the respective assumptions, limitations, qualifications and other matters set forth in such opinion (the “SHOT Fairness Opinion”).

Upon closing of the Transaction, SHOT intends to cause the Yerbaé Shares to cease to be listed on the TSXV and to cause Yerbaé to submit an application to cease to be a reporting issuer under applicable Canadian securities laws.

A more complete description of the terms of and conditions of the Transaction and related matters will be included in a current report on Form 8-K to be filed by each of SHOT and Yerbaé respectively with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the applicable Canadian securities commissions (collectively, the “Commissions”) on SEDAR+. A copy of the Arrangement Agreement will be an exhibit to the Form 8-Ks. All parties desiring details regarding the terms and conditions of the proposed transaction are urged to review the Form 8-Ks, and the exhibits attached thereto, which will be available on the SEC’s website found at www.sec.gov and on the Commission’s website at www.sedarplus.ca.

At the time of closing of the Transaction, none of the SHOT Shares or any other securities to be issued pursuant to the Transaction will have been registered under the U.S. Securities Act, or any U.S. state securities laws, and any securities issuable in the Transaction are anticipated to be issued in reliance upon available exemptions from such registration requirements pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable exemptions under state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

Unlocking Value for Shareholders

“The Transaction is about more than just two companies coming together; it’s about creating a new force in the wellness and beverage sector,” said SHOT CEO Jarrett Boon. “We are bringing together the best of both worlds—Safety Shot’s expertise in wellness solutions and Yerbaé’s strength in plant-based beverages—to create a company with significant potential.”

This strategic Transaction looks to creates a powerhouse in the wellness and beverage industry. We believe that Safety Shot will benefit from Yerbaé’s established presence in the natural and organic foods sector, gaining access to new markets and retail channels. We expect that Yerbaé’s robust distribution network will accelerate product placement and consumer adoption for both companies’ beverages, potentially allowing for rapid market expansion.

The Transaction also seeks to strengthen Safety Shot’s financial position. We expect that Yerbaé’s anticipated annual revenue could boost Safety Shot’s top line results. Furthermore, it diversifies Safety Shot’s product offerings, creating a more robust and resilient business model.

Yerbaé also benefits significantly from the Transaction. By joining forces with Safety Shot, Yerbaé gains access to potential growth capital and resources, enabling it to expand its operations, marketing efforts, and product development initiatives. The combined company is expected to leverage the expertise of both teams, including Yerbaé’s experienced leadership with a proven track record in the beverage industry, to drive product innovation and development.

Creating a More Efficient and Profitable Organization

The Transaction is expected to generate favorable synergies and cost savings through the integration of operations, supply chains, and marketing efforts. By leveraging the combined company’s scale and expertise, Safety Shot anticipates achieving greater efficiency and profitability. This includes streamlining manufacturing and distribution processes, optimizing marketing and sales initiatives, leveraging combined purchasing power, and eliminating redundant overhead expenses.

Positioned for a Bright Future

The combined company intends to be well-positioned to capitalize on the growing global market for healthy and functional beverages. With a diversified product portfolio, strong distribution network, and a shared commitment to innovation, Safety Shot and Yerbaé are poised to become a driving force in the wellness and beverage industry. The Transaction marks a significant step forward for both companies, unlocking exciting potential opportunities for growth, innovation, and long-term value creation for shareholders.

Exhibit 99.3

RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to the Arrangement

The completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions precedent and may not occur.

The completion of the Arrangement is subject to a number of conditions precedent, some of which are outside Yerbaé’s and Safety Shot’s control, including, but not limited to, the approval by the Court as well as the receipt of each of the Yerbaé Shareholder Approval and the Company Stockholder Approval. In addition, the completion of the Arrangement by Yerbaé and Safety Shot is conditional on, among other things, no material adverse effect having occurred in respect of either Yerbaé or Safety Shot that is continuing. There can be no certainty, nor can Yerbaé or Safety Shot provide any assurance, that all conditions precedent to the Arrangement will be satisfied or waived, or, if satisfied or waived, when they will be satisfied or waived and, accordingly, the Arrangement may not be completed. If the Arrangement is not completed, the market price of Yerbaé common shares and Safety Shot common stock may be adversely affected.

The market price of the Yerbaé common shares and Safety Shot common stock may be adversely affected if the Arrangement is not completed or is delayed.

If, for any reason, the Arrangement is not completed or its completion is materially delayed or the Arrangement Agreement is terminated, the market price of Yerbaé common shares and Safety Shot common stock may be materially adversely affected. Depending on the reasons for terminating the Arrangement Agreement, Yerbaé’s or Safety Shot’s business, financial condition or results of operations could also be subject to various material adverse consequences, including as a result of paying a Termination Fee (as defined below) or Expense Reimbursement Fee (as defined below), as applicable.

The Arrangement may be terminated in certain circumstances.

Pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, each of Yerbaé and Safety Shot has the right, in certain circumstances, in addition to termination rights relating to the failure to satisfy the conditions of closing, to terminate the Arrangement. Accordingly, there can be no certainty, nor can Yerbaé or Safety Shot provide any assurance, that the Arrangement will not be terminated by either of Yerbaé or Safety Shot prior to the completion of the Arrangement. The Arrangement Agreement also includes a Termination Fee and Expense Reimbursement Fee payable if the Arrangement Agreement is terminated in certain circumstances. Additionally, any termination will result in the failure to realize the expected benefits of the Arrangement in respect of the business of Yerbaé and Safety Shot.

The termination fees provided under the Arrangement Agreement may discourage other parties from attempting to acquire Yerbaé or Safety Shot.

Under the Arrangement Agreement, Yerbaé has certain termination rights if (i) prior to the receipt of the Yerbaé Shareholder Approval, the board of directors of Yerbaé authorizes Yerbaé to enter into a definitive written agreement with respect to a superior proposal, Yerbaé is otherwise in compliance with its non-solicit obligations under the Arrangement Agreement, and Yerbaé pays the Company a termination fee of [$1,750,000 plus up to $250,000] of the Company’s transaction expenses (the “Termination Fee”); or (ii) the board of directors of the Company, among other things, withdraws or changes its recommendation with respect to the Company Stockholder Approval, in which case the Company will be obligated to pay to Yerbaé a fee of $500,000 plus up to $250,000 of transaction expenses (the “Expense Reimbursement Fee”). These termination-related fees may discourage other parties from attempting to acquire Yerbaé common shares or Safety Shot common stock or otherwise make an acquisition proposal to Yerbaé, even if those parties, in the case of Yerbaé, would otherwise be willing to offer greater value to Yerbaé shareholders than that offered by Safety Shot under the Arrangement.

Completion of the Arrangement is uncertain given, among other things, the conditions precedent to the Arrangement.

As the Arrangement is dependent upon, among other things, satisfaction of certain conditions, its completion is uncertain. If the Arrangement is not completed for any reason, there are risks that the announcement of the Arrangement and the dedication of Yerbaé’s and Safety Shot’s resources to the completion thereof could have a negative impact on their respective relationships with their stakeholders and could have a material adverse effect on the current and future operations, financial condition and prospects of each of Yerbaé and Safety Shot. In addition, each of Yerbaé and Safety Shot will incur significant transaction expenses in connection with the Arrangement, regardless of whether the Arrangement is completed.

Yerbaé and Safety Shot are restricted under the Arrangement Agreement from pursuing certain business opportunities.

Each of Yerbaé and Safety Shot is subject to customary non-solicitation provisions under the Arrangement Agreement, pursuant to which, the parties are restricted from soliciting, initiating, encouraging or otherwise facilitating any acquisition proposal, among other things. The Arrangement Agreement also restricts them from taking specified actions until the Arrangement is completed without the consent of the other party. These restrictions may prevent each party from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the Arrangement.

Safety Shot stockholders and Yerbaé shareholders will have a reduced ownership and voting interest in, and will exercise less influence over the management of, the combined company following the completion of the Arrangement as compared to their current ownership and voting interest in the respective companies.

After the completion of the Arrangement, the current Safety Shot stockholders and Yerbaé shareholders will own a smaller percentage of the combined company than their ownership in their respective companies prior to the Arrangement. Upon completion of the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, it is estimated that the issuance of the Consideration Shares in exchange for Yerbaé shares will result in Yerbaé shareholders and Safety Shot stockholders owning approximately 24.2% and 75.8%, respectively, of the outstanding economic interest in the combined company. For a more complete description of the Arrangement Agreement, please see “The Arrangement Agreement - Consideration” in this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Another attractive take-over, merger or business combination may not be available if the Arrangement is not completed.

If the Arrangement is not completed and is terminated, there can be no assurance that Yerbaé will be able to find a party willing to pay equivalent or more attractive consideration than the consideration to be provided under the Arrangement or be willing to proceed at all with a similar transaction or any alternative transaction.

The pending Arrangement may divert the attention of management of Yerbaé and Safety Shot.

The pendency of the Arrangement could cause the attention of management of Yerbaé and Safety Shot to be diverted from their day-to-day operations, and suppliers, customers or distributors may seek to modify or terminate their business relationships with Yerbaé or Safety Shot, as applicable. These disruptions could be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the Arrangement and could have an adverse effect on the business, operating results or prospects of Yerbaé and Safety Shot regardless of whether the Arrangement is ultimately completed, or of the combined company if the Arrangement is completed.

Directors and officers of Yerbaé may have interests in the Arrangement different from the interests of Yerbaé shareholders.

Directors and executive officers of Yerbaé negotiated the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, and the Yerbaé Board has unanimously recommended that Yerbaé shareholders vote for the resolution approving the Arrangement. These directors and executive officers may have interests in the Arrangement that are different from, or in addition to, those of Yerbaé shareholders generally. Yerbaé shareholders should be aware of these interests. The Yerbaé Board was aware of, and considered, these interests when it declared the advisability of the Arrangement Agreement and unanimously recommended that Yerbaé shareholders approve the resolution approving the Arrangement.

The issuance of a significant number of Safety Shot shares of common stock could adversely affect the market price of the Safety Shot common stock.

On completion of the Arrangement, a significant number of Safety Shot shares of common stock will be issued to Yerbaé shareholders. The increase in the number of Safety Shot shares of common stock may lead to sales of such shares or the perception that such sales may occur, either of which may adversely affect the market for, and the market price of, the Safety Shot common stock.

Safety Shot and Yerbaé have incurred, and may continue to incur, substantial transaction fees and costs in connection with the Arrangement.

Safety Shot and Yerbaé have incurred and expect to incur additional material non-recurring expenses in connection with the Arrangement and completion of the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement, including without limitation, costs relating to obtaining required shareholder and regulatory approvals. Additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the course of coordinating the businesses of the combined company after completion of the Arrangement. If the Arrangement is not consummated, Safety Shot and Yerbaé will be required to pay certain costs relating to the Arrangement incurred prior to the date the Arrangement is abandoned, such as legal, accounting and financial advisory. Such costs may be significant and could have an adverse effect on each company’s future results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

There are risks associated with securities litigation related to the Arrangement.

Securities litigation or shareholder derivative litigation frequently follows the announcement of certain significant business transactions. Yerbaé or Safety Shot may become involved in this type of litigation in connection with the Arrangement, and the combined company may become involved in this type of litigation in the future. Litigation often is expensive and diverts management’s attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on the business and the results of operations of Yerbaé, Safety Shot or the combined company.

Exhibit 99.4

YERBAÉ BRANDS CORP.

(the “Company” or “Yerbaé)

RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to the Business of Yerbaé

The Company may have difficulty realizing consistent and meaningful revenues and achieving profitability.

Yerbaé’s ability to successfully develop its products and to realize consistent and meaningful revenues and to achieve profitability cannot be assured. For the Company to realize consistent, meaningful revenues and to achieve profitability, its products must receive broad market acceptance by consumers. Without this market acceptance, the Company will not be able to generate sufficient revenue to continue its business operations. If Yerbaé’s products are not widely accepted by the market, the business may fail.

Yerbaé’s ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate revenues, manage operational and marketing costs and expenses, and compete successfully with its direct and indirect competitors. The Company anticipates operating losses in upcoming future periods. This will occur because there are expenses associated with the development, production, marketing, and sales of the Company’s products.

Yerbaé’s continued operating losses express substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Yerbaé has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow the Company to continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $34.5 million. Yerbaé’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to significantly curtail or cease operations.

Yerbaé management has concluded that its historical recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operations as well as its dependence on financings raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and the Company’s auditor has included an explanatory paragraph relating to Yerbaé’s ability to continue as a going concern in its audit report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Yerbaé will need additional funds to continue producing, marketing, and distributing its products.

Yerbaé will have to spend additional funds to continue producing, marketing and distributing its products. If the Company cannot raise sufficient capital, it may have to curtail or cease operations. Accordingly, the Company will need additional funds to continue to produce its products for distribution in its target markets.

There is no guarantee that sufficient sale levels will be achieved.

There is no guarantee that the expenditure of money on distribution and marketing efforts will translate into sufficient sales to cover the Company’s expenses and result in profits. Consequently, there is a risk that investors may lose all of their investment.

Yerbaé’s development, marketing, and sales activities are limited by its size.

Because of Yerbaé’s relative size, the Company must limit its product development, marketing, and sales activities to the amount of capital it raises. As such, Yerbaé may not be able to complete its production and business development program in a manner that is as thorough as the Company would like. The Company may not ever generate sufficient revenues to cover its operating and expansion costs.

A failure to introduce new products or product extensions into new marketplaces successfully could prevent Yerbaé from achieving long-term profitability.

Yerbaé competes in an industry characterized by rapid changes in consumer preferences, so the Company’s ability to continue developing new products to satisfy our consumers’ changing preferences will determine its long-term success. A failure to introduce new products or product extensions into new marketplaces successfully could prevent the Company from achieving long-term profitability. In addition, customer preferences are also affected by factors other than taste, such as publicity and marketing campaigns. If the Company does not adjust to respond to these and other changes in customer preferences, Yerbaé’s sales may be adversely affected.

Yerbaé’s growth and profitability depends on the performance of third-party distributors and on the Company’s ongoing relationships with them.

Yerbaé’s distribution network is essential for the Company’s success and relies on the performance of various third-parties. This includes wholesalers, direct store delivery distributors, direct distribution channels, and e-commerce platforms. Any failure or inadequate performance by these distribution parties could impact the Company’s operations, profitability, and pose risks to any investment in the securities of the Company.

Yerbaé’s distribution model involves a diverse network of wholesalers, distributors, and retailers. Wholesalers purchase our products in bulk and distribute them to retailers or directly to consumers. Distributors handle direct store delivery distribution, ensuring Yerbaé’s products reach retail shelves efficiently. Additionally, the Company’s direct distribution channels and e-commerce platform enable it to reach customers directly.

There are several potential risks associated with these various arrangements:

Non-Performance – There is a risk that wholesalers, distributors, or retailers may refuse to carry or cease marketing Yerbaé’s products, disrupting the Company’s supply chain and sales channels.

Inadequate Performance – Third-parties may not fulfill their obligations effectively, such as failing to distribute to enough retailers or positioning Yerbaé’s products in unfavorable locations.

Financial Instability – The financial health or market share of these third-parties may deteriorate, impacting Yerbaé’s distribution, marketing, and sales activities.

Relationship Management – Maintaining positive commercial relationships with wholesalers, distributors, and retailers is essential to ensure continued promotion and availability of Yerbaé’s products. Any strain or deterioration in these relationships could have adverse effects on the operations and profitability of the Company.

Overall, the performance of third-party distribution parties and Yerbaé’s relationships with them are crucial factors that could affect the business outcomes of the Company and returns for investors.

Yerbaé’s business is sensitive to public perception. If any product proves to be harmful to consumers or if scientific studies provide unfavorable findings regarding their safety or effectiveness of caffeinated beverages, then the Company’s image in the marketplace would be negatively impacted.

Yerbaé’s results of operations may be significantly affected by the public’s perception of the Company and similar companies. Accordingly, the business of the Company could be adversely affected if any of Yerbaé’s products or similar products distributed by other companies proves to be harmful to consumers or if scientific studies provide unfavorable findings regarding the safety or effectiveness of the Company’s products or any similar products. If Yerbaé’s products suffer from negative consumer perception, it is likely to adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations.

Increases in the cost, disruption of supply or shortage of ingredients, other raw materials or packaging materials could harm the business of Yerbaé.

Yerbaé and its third-party bottlers will use water, flavors, yerba mate, white tea, caffeine and stevia and packaging materials for bottles such as aluminum and paper products. The prices for these ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials fluctuate depending on market conditions. Substantial increases in the prices of the Company’s or its bottler’s ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials, to the extent they cannot be recouped through increases in the prices of finished beverage products, could increase the operating costs of the Company and could reduce profitability.

Increases in the prices of Yerbaé’s finished products resulting from a higher cost of ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials could affect the affordability of the Company’s products and reduce sales.

An increase in the cost, a sustained interruption in the supply, or a shortage of some of the ingredients used in the Company’s products, other raw materials, or packaging materials and containers that may be caused by a deterioration of Yerbaé’s or its third-party bottlers’ relationships with suppliers; by supplier quality and reliability issues; or by events such as natural disasters, power outages, labor strikes, political uncertainties or governmental instability, or the like, could negatively impact the Company’s net revenues and profits.

Yerbaé relies on third-parties to produce and bottle its products, which creates additional risk.

Yerbaé does not own or operate bottling or co-packing facilities used for the production of the various products in its portfolio. The Company relies on certain third-parties to ensure the quality, safety and integrity of Yerbaé’s products. If the third-parties that the Company engages to produce and bottle its products fail to meet Yerbaé’s demands or are found by government agencies to be out of compliance with applicable regulatory requirements, the supply of those products and the future profit margins of the Company could be adversely affected.

Yerbaé presently relies on a limited number of customers

Yerbaé’s business is highly dependent on a limited number of customers, which exposes the Company to significant risks related to revenue concentration. As such, a substantial portion of the Company’s sales is generated from a small number of key customers. Consequently, the loss of, or a significant reduction in orders from, any of these customers could materially and adversely affect Yerbaé’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Several factors could lead to a loss or reduction in orders from these key customers, including:

Customer Consolidation – Mergers or acquisitions among Yerbaé’s customers could reduce the number of purchasing entities, potentially leading to decreased demand for our products.

Changes in Customer Demand – Shifts in consumer preferences towards other beverages, new health trends, or changes in the Company’s customers’ business strategies could reduce the demand for Yerbaé products.

Competitive Pressures – Yerbaé’s customers may choose to source functional beverages from competitors, including new entrants with innovative products or larger companies with established brands, which could result in a loss of business.

Economic Downturns – Economic instability or downturns affecting the Company’s customers’ markets could lead to reduced orders, as consumers may cut back on discretionary spending, including premium beverages.

Contractual Relationships – Changes in or termination of any existing relationships, or failure to renew or replace any arrangement with Yerbaé customers on favorable terms, could negatively impact the Company’s revenue. This includes private label agreements or exclusive supply contracts with major retailers or distributors.

Yerbaé’s dependence on a limited number of customers may also limits its negotiating power and increase its vulnerability to adverse changes in pricing and contract terms. Additionally, this concentration risk could negatively impact Yerbaé’s ability to obtain favorable financing terms or secure new business opportunities.

To mitigate these risks, the Company is actively seeking to diversify its customer base and broaden its market reach. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful or that they will sufficiently offset the risks associated with Yerbaé’s current customer concentration. Failure to diversify Yerbaé’s customer base could result in a significant decline in financial performance.

Product contamination or tampering or issues or concerns with respect to product quality, safety and integrity could adversely affect Yerbaé’s business, reputation, financial condition or results of operations.

Product contamination or tampering, the failure to maintain high standards for product quality, safety and integrity, including with respect to raw materials and ingredients obtained from suppliers, or allegations (whether or not valid) of product quality issues, mislabeling, misbranding, spoilage, allergens, adulteration or contamination with respect to products in Yerbaé’s portfolio may reduce demand for such products, and cause production and delivery disruptions or increase costs, each of which could adversely affect the business, reputation, financial condition or results of operations of the Company. If any of the products in Yerbaé’s portfolio are mislabeled or become unfit for consumption or cause injury, illness or death, or if appropriate resources are not devoted to product quality and safety or to comply with changing food safety requirements, the Company could decide to, or be required to, recall products or withdraw from the marketplace and/or it may be subject to liability or government action, which could result in payment of damages or fines, cause certain products in the Company’s portfolio to be unavailable for a period of time, result in destruction of product inventory, or result in adverse publicity (whether or not valid), which could reduce consumer demand and brand equity. Moreover, even if allegations of product contamination or tampering or suggestions that Yerbaé’s products were not fit for consumption are meritless, the negative publicity surrounding assertions against the Company or its products or processes could adversely affect Yerbaé’s reputation or brand. The business of the Company could also be adversely affected if consumers lose confidence in product quality, safety and integrity generally, even if such loss of confidence is unrelated to products in Yerbaé’s portfolio. Any of the foregoing could adversely affect the business, reputation, financial condition or results of operations of the Company. In addition, if Yerbaé does not have adequate insurance, if it does not have enforceable indemnification from suppliers, bottlers, distributors or other third-parties or if indemnification is not available, the liability relating to such product claims or disruption as a result of recall efforts could materially adversely affect the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

Yerbaé will compete in an industry that is brand-conscious, so brand name recognition and acceptance of its products are critical to its success and significant marketing and advertising could be needed to achieve and sustain brand recognition.

Yerbaé’s business is substantially dependent upon awareness and market acceptance of its products and brands by its targeted consumers. Its business also depends on acceptance by independent distributors of the Yerbaé brand as one that has the potential to provide incremental sales growth rather than reduce distributors’ existing functional energy drinks. The development of brand awareness and market acceptance is likely to require significant marketing and advertising expenditures. There can be no assurance that Yerbaé will achieve and maintain satisfactory levels of acceptance by independent distributors and retail customers. Any failure of the Yerbaé brand to maintain or increase acceptance or market penetration would likely have a material adverse effect on business, financial condition and results of operations.

If Yerbaé is unable to successfully manage new product launches, its business and financial results could be adversely affected.

Due to the highly competitive nature of the global functional energy drink sector, Yerbaé expects and intends to continue to introduce new products and evolve existing products to better match consumer demand. The success of new and evolved products depends on several factors, including timely and successful development and consumer acceptance. Such endeavors may also involve significant risks and uncertainties, including distraction of management from current operations, greater than expected liabilities and expenses, inadequate return on capital, exposure to additional regulations and reliance on the performance of third-parties.

Alternative non-commercial beverages or processes could hurt Yerbaé’s business.

The availability of non-commercial beverages, such as tap water, and machines capable of producing naturally caffeinated, plant-based energy beverages at the consumer’s home could hurt Yerbaé’s business, market share, and profitability.

Water scarcity and poor quality could negatively impact Yerbaé’s production costs and capacity.

Water is an ingredient in the product. It is also a limited resource, facing unprecedented challenges from overexploitation, increasing pollution, poor management, and climate change. As demand for water continues to increase, as water becomes scarcer, and as the quality of available water deteriorates, Yerbaé may incur increasing production costs or face capacity constraints that could adversely affect its profitability or net operating revenues in the long run.

Climate change and natural disasters may affect Yerbaé’s business.

There is concern that a gradual increase in global average temperatures due to increased carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere could cause significant changes in weather patterns around the globe and an increase in the frequency and severity of natural disasters. Changing weather patterns could result in decreased agricultural productivity in certain regions, and/or outbreaks of diseases or other health issues, which may limit availability and/or increase the cost of certain ingredients used in Yerbaé’s products and could impact the food security of communities around the world. Increased frequency or duration of extreme weather conditions could also impair production capabilities, disrupt Yerbaé’s supply chain and/or impact demand for its products.

Natural disasters and extreme weather conditions, such as hurricanes, wildfires, earthquakes or floods, and outbreaks of diseases (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) or other health issues may affect Yerbaé’s operations and the operation of its supply chain, impact the operations of its distributors and unfavorably impact Yerbaé’s consumers’ ability to purchase its products. In addition, public expectations for reductions in greenhouse gas emissions could result in increased energy, transportation, and raw material costs, and may require Yerbaé to make additional investments in facilities and equipment. Changes in applicable laws, regulations, standards or practices related to greenhouse gas emissions, packaging and water scarcity, as well as initiatives by advocacy groups in favor of certain climate change-related laws, regulations, standards or practices, may result in increased compliance costs, capital expenditures and other financial obligations, which could affect Yerbaé’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Sales of Yerbaé’s products may also be influenced to some extent by weather conditions in the markets in which it operates. Yerbaé’s third-party co-packers use a number of key ingredients in the manufacturing of its products and powder packets that are derived from agricultural commodities. Increased demand for food products and decreased agricultural productivity in certain regions of the world as a result of changing weather patterns and other factors may limit the availability or increase the cost of such agricultural commodities and could impact the food security of communities around the world. Weather conditions may influence consumer demand for certain of Yerbaé’s products, which could have an effect on its operations, either positively or negatively.

Because Yerbaé has a limited operating history, Yerbaé’s ability to fully and successfully develop the business is unknown.

Yerbaé has only recently begun producing and distributing energy beverages and does not have a significant operating history with which investors can evaluate Yerbaé’s business. Yerbaé’s ability to successfully develop its products, and to realize consistent, meaningful revenues and profit has not been established and cannot be assured. For Yerbaé to achieve success, the products must receive broad market acceptance by consumers. Without this market acceptance, Yerbaé will not be able to generate sufficient revenue to continue Yerbaé’s business operations. If Yerbaé’s products are not widely accepted by the market, the business may fail.

Dependence on personnel.

Due to the specialized nature of Yerbaé’s business, Yerbaé’s success depends on its ability to attract and retain qualified personnel and management. In particular, Yerbaé’s future success will depend in part on the continued services of its executive officers and other key employees. Competition for qualified personnel in the industry in which Yerbaé operates is intense. Yerbaé believes that there are only a limited number of people with the requisite skills to serve in many key positions and it is difficult to hire and retain these people. The loss of one or more of these key personnel may have a significant adverse effect on Yerbaé or its sales, operations and profits.

Conflicts of Interest.

Certain of the directors and officers of Yerbaé are also directors and officers of other companies. In addition, they may devote time to other outside business interests, so long as such activities do not materially or adversely interfere with their duties to Yerbaé. The interests of these persons could conflict with those of Yerbaé. Conflicts of interest, if any, will be subject to the procedures and remedies provided under applicable laws, including the requirements of the BCBCA. In particular, in the event that such a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of Yerbaé’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), a director who has such a conflict will abstain from voting for or against the approval of such participation or such terms. In accordance with applicable laws, the directors of Yerbaé will be required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of Yerbaé.

Yerbaé’s growth and profitability depends on the performance of third-parties and its relationship with them.

Yerbaé and its distribution network and its success depend on the performance of third-parties, such as third-party co-packers and distribution partners. Any non-performance or deficient performance by such parties may undermine Yerbaé’s operations, profitability, and result in total loss to your investment. To manufacture products, Yerbaé will rely on third-party co-packers. These third-party co-packers may not be able to fulfill Yerbaé’s demand, or such third-parties could begin to charge rates that make using their services cost inefficient. In such a case, Yerbaé’s business, financial condition, and results of operation would be adversely affected. To distribute product, Yerbaé will use a broker-distributor-retailer network whereby brokers represent products to distributors and retailers who will in turn sell product to consumers. The success of this network will depend on the performance of the brokers, distributors and retailers of this network. There is a risk that a broker, distributor, or retailer may refuse to or cease to market or carry Yerbaé’s products. There is a risk that the mentioned entities may not adequately perform their functions within the network by, without limitation, failing to distribute to sufficient retailers or positioning Yerbaé’s products in localities that may not be receptive to it. Furthermore, such third-parties’ financial position or market share may deteriorate, which could adversely affect Yerbaé’s distribution, marketing and sale activities. Yerbaé must maintain good commercial relationships with third-party brokers, distributors and retails so that they will promote and carry its product. Any adverse consequences resulting from the performance of third-parties or Yerbaé’s relationship with them could undermine Yerbaé’s operations, profitability and may result in total loss of your investment.

Risks Related to Regulations Applicable to Yerbaé’s Industry

Changes in the caffeinated energy beverage business environment and retail landscape could adversely impact the Company’s financial results.

The caffeinated energy beverage business environment is rapidly evolving as a result of, among other things, changes in consumer preferences, including changes based on health and nutrition considerations and obesity concerns; shifting consumer tastes and needs; changes in consumer lifestyles; and competitive product and pricing pressures. In addition, the caffeinated energy beverage retail landscape is very dynamic and constantly evolving, not only in emerging and developing markets, where modern trade is growing at a faster pace than traditional trade outlets, but also in developed markets, where discounters and value stores, as well as the volume of transactions through e-commerce, are growing at a rapid pace. If Yerbaé is unable to successfully adapt to the rapidly changing environment and retail landscape, its share of sales, volume growth and overall financial results could be negatively affected.

Increase in the cost, disruption of supply or shortage of ingredients, other raw materials or packaging materials could harm Yerbaé’s business.

Yerbaé’s bottling partners will use water, yerba mate, guarana, white tea, stevia, flavoring and packaging materials for bottles such as aluminum, plastic and paper products. The prices for these ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials fluctuate depending on market conditions. Substantial increases in the prices of Yerbaé’s or its bottling partners’ ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials, to the extent they cannot be recouped through increases in the prices of finished beverage products, would increase Yerbaé’s operating costs and could reduce its profitability. Increases in the prices of Yerbaé’s finished products resulting from a higher cost of ingredients, other raw materials and packaging materials could affect the affordability of its products and reduce sales.

An increase in the cost, a sustained interruption in the supply, or a shortage of some of these ingredients, other raw materials, or packaging materials and containers that may be caused by a deterioration of Yerbaé’s or its bottling partners’ relationships with suppliers; by supplier quality and reliability issues; or by events such as natural disasters, power outages, labor strikes, political uncertainties or governmental instability, or the like, could negatively impact Yerbaé’s net revenues and profits.

Intense competition and increasing competition in the commercial beverage market could hurt Yerbaé’s business.

The commercial retail beverage industry, and in particular its functional caffeinated energy beverage segment is highly competitive. Market participants are of various sizes, with various market shares and geographical reach, some of whom have access to substantially more sources of capital.

Yerbaé will compete generally with all commercial beverages, including specialty beverages, such functional energy drinks. Yerbaé will compete indirectly with major international beverage companies including, but not limited to: the Coca Cola Company, Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, PepsiCo, Inc., Nestle, Waters North America, Inc., Hansen Natural Corp. and Red Bull. These companies have established market presence in the United States, and offer a variety of beverages that are substitutes to Yerbaé’s products. Yerbaé faces potential direct competition from such companies, because they have the financial resources, and access to manufacturing and distribution channels to rapidly enter the energy beverage market.

Yerbaé also competes with companies that are smaller or primarily local in operation as well as with private label brands such as those carried by supermarket chains, convenience store chains, drug store chains, mass merchants and club warehouses. These companies could bolster their position in the caffeinated plant-based energy beverage market through additional expenditure and promotion.

As a result of both direct and indirect competition, Yerbaé’s ability to successfully distribute, market and sell its products, and to gain sufficient market share in the United States to realize profits may be limited, greatly diminished, or totally diminished, which may lead to partial or total loss of your investments in Yerbaé.

Changes in consumer product and shopping preferences may reduce demand for Yerbaé’s products.

The functional energy drink and supplement categories are subject to changing consumer preferences and shifts in consumer preferences may adversely affect Yerbaé. There is increasing awareness of and concern for health, wellness, and nutrition considerations, including concerns regarding caloric intake associated with sugar-sweetened drinks and the perceived undesirability of artificial ingredients. Yerbaé’s products do not contain the artificial preservatives often found in many energy drinks and sodas. Yerbaé has no artificial preservatives, aspartame or high fructose corn syrup and is very low in sodium. Yerbaé has sweetened line of products that are sweetened with stevia, a composite herb native to South America whose leaves are the source of a noncaloric sweetener. However, consumer preferences may shift away from the trend towards healthier options that Yerbaé has observed, and as such, there can be no assurance that Yerbaé’s current products and product lines will maintain their current levels of demand. There are also changes in demand for different packages, sizes, and configurations. This may reduce demand for Yerbaé’s products, which could reduce Yerbaé’s revenues and adversely affect Yerbaé’s results of operations.

Consumers are seeking greater variety in their functional energy drinks. Yerbaé’s success will depend, in part, upon its continued ability to develop and introduce different and innovative drinks and supplements that appeal to consumers. In order to retain and expand Yerbaé’s market share, Yerbaé must continue to develop and introduce different and innovative supplements and be competitive in the areas of efficacy, taste, quality, and price, although there can be no assurance of its ability to do so. There is no assurance that consumers will continue to purchase Yerbaé products in the future. Product lifecycles for some functional energy drink brands, products and/or packages may be limited to a few years before consumers’ preferences change. The functional energy drinks that Yerbaé currently markets are in varying stages of their product lifecycles, and there can be no assurance that such products will become or remain profitable for Yerbaé. Yerbaé may be unable to achieve volume growth through product and packaging initiatives. Yerbaé may also be unable to penetrate new markets.

Expansion of the naturally caffeinated, plant-based energy beverage market or sufficiency of consumer demand in that market for operations to be profitable are not guaranteed.

The naturally caffeinated, plant-based energy beverage market is an emerging market and there is no guarantee that this market will expand or that consumer demand will be sufficiently high to allow Yerbaé to successfully market, distribute and sell its products, or to successfully compete with current or future competition, all of which may result in total loss of your investment.

Health benefits of caffeinated energy beverages are not guaranteed or proven, rather it is perceived by consumers.

Health benefits of caffeinated energy beverages are not guaranteed and have not been proven. There is a perception that consuming naturally caffeinated, plant-based energy beverages have beneficial health effects. Consequently, negative changes in consumers’ perception of the benefits of such beverages or negative publicity surrounding them may result in loss of market share or potential market share and hence loss of your investment.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not passed on the efficacy of Yerbaé’s products or the accuracy of any claim made related to its products. The FTC regulates advertising and may review the truthfulness of and substantiation for any claim Yerbaé makes related to its products.

Yerbaé’s advertising activities within the United States are subject to regulation by the United States Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) under the Federal Trade Commission Act. In recent years, the FTC and state attorneys general have initiated numerous investigations of dietary and nutritional supplement companies and products. Any actions or investigations initiated against the Company by governmental authorities or private litigants could have a material adverse effect on Yerbaé’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The shifting regulatory environment through the various jurisdictions in which are products are sold necessitates building and maintaining robust systems to achieve and maintain compliance in multiple jurisdictions and increases the possibility that Yerbaé may violate one or more of the legal requirements. If its operations are found to be in violation of any applicable laws or regulations, Yerbaé may be subject to, without limitation, civil and criminal penalties, damages, fines, the curtailment or restructuring of its operations, injunctions, or product withdrawals, recalls or seizures, any of which could adversely affect its ability to operate its business, its financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Yerbaé’s Intellectual Property

Dependence on trademarks and proprietary rights.

Yerbaé’s success depends, in large part, on its ability to protect its brands and products and to defend its intellectual property rights. Yerbaé currently has registered both the name “Yerbaé” and Yerbaé’s frog logo as trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Yerbaé cannot be sure that trademarks will be issued with respect to any future trademark applications or that its competitors will not challenge, invalidate or circumvent any existing or future trademarks issued to, or licensed by, Yerbaé. Additionally, Yerbaé’s products will be manufactured using proprietary blends of ingredients created by third-party suppliers and then supplied to co-packers. Although the third-parties in Yerbaé’s supply and manufacturing chain will execute confidentiality agreements, there can be no assurances that trade secrets, such as the proprietary ingredient blends, will not become known to competitors.

Yerbaé may face intellectual property infringement claims that could be time-consuming and costly to defend, and could result in loss of significant rights and the assessment of treble damages.

From time to time the Company may face intellectual property claims from third-parties. Some of these claims may lead to litigation. The outcome of any such litigation can never be guaranteed, and an adverse outcome could affect Yerbaé negatively. For example, were a third-party to succeed on an infringement claim against the Company, Yerbaé may be required to pay substantial damages (including up to treble damages if such infringement were found to be willful). In addition, the Company could face an injunction, barring it from conducting the allegedly infringing activity. The outcome of the litigation could require Yerbaé to enter into a license agreement which may not be under acceptable, commercially reasonable, or practical terms or the Company may be precluded from obtaining a license at all. It is also possible that an adverse finding of infringement against the Company may require Yerbaé to dedicate substantial resources and time in developing non-infringing alternatives, which may or may not be possible.

Finally, Yerbaé may initiate claims to assert or defend its intellectual property against third-parties. Any intellectual property litigation, irrespective of whether the Company is the plaintiff or the defendant, and regardless of the outcome, is expensive and time-consuming, and could divert management’s attention from Yerbaé’s business and negatively affect the operating results or financial condition of the Company.

Yerbaé may be subject to claims by third-parties asserting that its employees or the Company has misappropriated their intellectual property, or claiming ownership of what the Company regard as its own intellectual property.

Although Yerbaé tries to ensure that the Company, its employees, and independent contractors (suppliers/vendors/distributors) do not use the proprietary information or know-how of others in their work, Yerbaé may be subject to claims that the Company, its employees, or independent contractors (suppliers/vendors/distributors) have used or disclosed intellectual property in violation of others’ rights. These claims may cover a range of matters, such as challenges to Yerbaé’s trademarks, as well as claims that its employees or independent contractors are using trade secrets or other proprietary information of any such employee’s former employer or independent contractors. As a result, the Company may be forced to bring claims against third-parties, or defend claims brought against Yerbaé, to determine the ownership of what the Company regard as its intellectual property. If Yerbaé fails in prosecuting or defending any such claims, in addition to paying monetary damages, the Company may lose valuable intellectual property rights or personnel. Even if successful in prosecuting or defending against such claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management of the Company.

Risks Related to Yerbaé’s Common Shares

Market price of Common Shares

The market price of the common shares of the Company (the “Common Shares”) may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to ‎numerous factors, many of which are beyond Yerbaé’s control. This volatility may affect the ‎ability of holders of Common Shares to sell their securities at an advantageous price. Market price ‎fluctuations in the Common Shares may be due to Yerbaé’s operating results failing to meet ‎expectations of securities analysts or investors in any period, downward revision in securities analysts’ ‎estimates, adverse changes in general market conditions or economic trends, acquisitions, dispositions or ‎other material public announcements by Yerbaé or its competitors, along with a variety of additional ‎factors. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares.‎

Financial markets have historically at times experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that ‎have particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of companies and have often been ‎unrelated to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. ‎Accordingly, the market price of the Common Shares may decline even if Yerbaé’s operating results, ‎underlying asset values or prospects have not changed. Additionally, these factors, as well as other ‎related factors, may cause decreases in asset values that are deemed to be other than temporary, which ‎may result in impairment losses. There can be no assurance that continuing fluctuations in price and ‎volume will not occur. If such increased levels of volatility and market turmoil continue, Yerbaé’s ‎operations could be adversely impacted and the trading price of the Common Shares may be ‎materially adversely affected.‎

Additional Financing

The continued development of Yerbaé will require additional financing. There is no guarantee that Yerbaé will be able to achieve its business objectives, including with respect to the expansion of its product offerings and entering into new markets. Yerbaé intends to fund its business objectives by way of additional offerings of equity and/or debt financing as well as through anticipated positive cash flow from operations in the future. The failure to raise or procure such additional funds or the failure to achieve positive cash flow could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of current business objectives. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company.

Given Yerbaé’s plans and expectations that additional capital and personnel will be needed, the Company may need to issue additional debt or equity securities. Yerbaé cannot predict the size of future sales and issuances of debt or equity securities or the effect, if any, that future sales and issuances of debt or equity securities will have on the market price of the Common Shares. Sales or issuances of a substantial number of equity securities, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices for the Common Shares. With any additional sale or issuance of equity securities, investors will suffer dilution of their voting power and may experience dilution in Yerbaé’s earnings per share.

Liquidity

Shareholders may be unable to sell significant quantities of Common Shares into the public trading markets without a significant reduction in the price of their Common Shares, or at all. There can be no assurance that there will be sufficient liquidity of the Common Shares on the trading market, and that Yerbaé will continue to meet the listing requirements of the TSX Venture Exchange, OTCQX^® or other public listing exchanges.

History of negative cash flows

Yerbaé has a history of negative cash flow from operating activities. To the extent that the Company has negative cash flow in future periods, Yerbaé may need to allocate a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of securities to fund such negative cash flow. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available when need or that these financings will be on terms at least as favorable to Yerbaé as those previously obtained, or at all.

Yerbaé derives virtually all of its revenues from functional energy drinks, and competitive pressure in the functional energy drink category could adversely affect Yerbaé’s business and operating results.

Yerbaé’s focus is in the functional energy category, and its business is vulnerable to adverse changes impacting the fitness supplement category and business, which could adversely impact Yerbaé’s business and the trading price of its Common Shares.

Virtually all of Yerbaé’s sales are derived from its functional energy beverage product lines. Any decrease in the sales of its functional energy drinks could significantly adversely affect Yerbaé’s future revenues and net income. Historically, Yerbaé have experienced substantial competition from new entrants in the functional energy drink category. The increasing number of competitive products and limited amount of shelf space, including in coolers, in retail stores may adversely impact Yerbaé’s ability to gain or maintain a share of sales in the marketplace. In addition, certain actions of competitors, including unsubstantiated and/or misleading claims, false advertising claims and tortious interference in Yerbaé’s business, as well as competitors selling misbranded products, could impact Yerbaé’s sales. Competitive pressures in the functional energy drink and supplement categories could impact Yerbaé’s revenues, cause price erosion and/or lower market share, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its business and results of operations.

Because Yerbaé does not intend to pay any cash dividends on its Common Shares in the near future, shareholders will not be able to receive a return on their Common Shares unless they sell them.

Yerbaé intends to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of its business. Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on the Common Shares in the near future. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the Board, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the Board considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend. Unless Yerbaé pays dividends, shareholders of the Company will not be able to receive a return on their Common Shares unless they sell them.
