Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, Inspire Veterinary Partners, Inc.

The Warrants have an exercise price of $1.00 and are exercisable for a period of six months commencing upon issuance.

On October 8, 2024, the Company and that certain holder amended the Warrant to reduce the exercise price of the holder’s 2,500,000 Warrants from $1.00 to $0.20 (the “Amendment”).
