Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
 
On March 24, 2025, Truleum Inc., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Note Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the holders of the Company’s previously issued 7.25% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note, originally issued on December 31, 2022, in the aggregate principal amount of $1,319,960 (the “Original Note”).
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company and the holder agreed to cancel and exchange the Original Note in its entirety in consideration for the issuance by the Company of a new 8.5% Senior Secured Promissory Note, dated March 24, 2025 (the “New Note”), in the principal amount of $1,461,305.20, which reflects the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the Original Note as of the date of exchange.
 
The New Note bears interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum and contains terms and conditions substantially similar to the Original Note, except that it allows for the conversion of principal and unpaid, accrued interest into shares of the Company’s common stock at the lesser of $5.00 per share or a 10% discount to a 5-day VWAP and includes an extended maturity date of the third anniversary of the New Note.
 
The Company believes that the issuance of the New Note aligns with its ongoing capital management objectives and enhances its financial flexibility as it continues to execute its strategic growth initiatives.
 
The foregoing description of the Agreement and the New Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated by reference herein.
