Item 1.01Item 1.01 - Entry into Material Agreement
Item 1.01 - Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement
On September 30, 2026 (the “Closing Date”),
MineralRite Corporation (the “Company” or “RITE”) entered into a Series NMC Preferred Stock Repurchase, Note and
Sinking-Fund Agreement (the “Repurchase Agreement”) with Abstract Concepts 1618 LLC (“Abstract”), acting on behalf
of itself and its affiliates. Under the Repurchase Agreement, the Company repurchased from Abstract 3,919,388 shares of the Company’s
Series NMC $25 Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series NMC Preferred”) for an aggregate repurchase price of $106,724,942. The
Company issued Abstract a non-interest-bearing promissory note in that principal amount (the “Note”) as consideration for
the repurchase.
The Series NMC Preferred sinking fund commits to repurchase
shares tendered by holders, subject to the availability of sufficient funds, at a price that began at the $25.00 par value and grows at
5% per annum, subject to a $25.40 floor. In the Repurchase Agreement, the Company and Abstract confirmed that this growth compounds annually
and that the sinking-fund price was approximately $27.23 per share as of the Closing Date. The Repurchase Agreement also permanently caps
at $269,049,058.76 the total amount payable by the Company under the Series NMC Preferred sinking fund with respect to the Series NMC
Preferred shares covered by the agreement, which equals approximately $27.23 per share on the 9,880,612 shares expected to be held by
Abstract following the transaction, so that the sinking-fund amount will not increase further. The cap applies to the Series NMC Preferred
shares held by Abstract following the transaction, including shares issuable upon exercise of the Series NMC warrants, and to permitted
transferees that agree in writing to be bound by its terms. The Company is also required to make a portion of the funds it raises or otherwise
generates available for sinking-fund repurchases of Series NMC Preferred shares.
Also on the Closing Date, the Company entered into
a Royalty Repurchase, Warrant Exercise and Note Satisfaction Agreement (the “Closing Agreement”) with Abstract. Pursuant to
the Closing Agreement, Abstract exercised its option to repurchase a royalty interest from the Company for $1,641,254; Commodity Capital
Advisors LLC (“Commodity”), acting through Abstract as its manager and with the Company’s consent, exercised its option
to repurchase a separate royalty interest for $246,188; Abstract irrevocably exercised 47,600 Series D Preferred Stock warrants and 6,900,000
Series NMC Preferred warrants; and Commodity irrevocably exercised 5,900 Series D Preferred Stock warrants. The Note was applied to satisfy
the royalty repurchase prices and warrant exercise prices, was fully satisfied, and was cancelled at Closing.
The Company also acknowledged and consented to an
Authorization to Exercise Option to Repurchase and Consent among Commodity and Abstract (the “Commodity Authorization”), pursuant
to which Commodity exercised its royalty repurchase option and authorized Abstract, as Commodity’s manager, to act on Commodity’s
behalf. The Company waived the otherwise applicable ten-business-day exercise notice period and agreed to accept application of a portion
of the Note in full payment of Commodity’s repurchase price.
Abstract is owned and managed by Lloyd B. Hendricks
III and is a related party of the Company because it beneficially owns more than 5% of the Company’s common stock. Abstract also
acts as manager of Commodity. Mr. Hendricks and his affiliates are subject to a Shareholder Control Limitation and Standstill Agreement,
as previously reported in a Form 8-K filed on May 7, 2026. The prices for the Series NMC repurchase, the royalty repurchases and the warrant
exercises followed existing contractual terms, and the Company and Abstract worked together to negotiate the cashless structure and the
sinking-fund cap. The foregoing descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Repurchase Agreement, the Note, the Commodity
Authorization, and the Closing Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and
incorporated herein by reference.

Securities
As described in Item 1.01, on the Closing Date Abstract
irrevocably exercised 47,600 warrants to purchase Series D Preferred Stock and 6,900,000 warrants to purchase Series NMC Preferred Stock,
and Commodity irrevocably exercised 5,900 warrants to purchase Series D Preferred Stock. Upon the effectiveness of the Company’s

The aggregate exercise price for the Series D Preferred
Stock warrants was $1,337,500, and the aggregate exercise price for the Series NMC Preferred Stock warrants was $103,500,000. The consideration
was satisfied through application of the Note as described in Item 1.01. The securities will be issued in reliance upon the exemption
from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as a transaction not involving a public offering.
The Company received no cash proceeds from the exercises. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into 25,000 shares of
common stock, and each share of Series NMC Preferred Stock is convertible into 500 shares of common stock. The warrant holders, Abstract
and Commodity, are existing security holders of the Company under common management and are accredited investors; no general solicitation
was made, and the securities will be issued as restricted securities.
