Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 26, 2026, Jupiter Neurosciences, Inc. (the "Company") entered into separate Debt Forgiveness and Release Agreements (each, a "Forgiveness Agreement" and collectively, the "Forgiveness Agreements") with certain executive officers and directors of the Company pursuant to which such individuals irrevocably forgave an aggregate of $875,315 of accrued and unpaid compensation previously owed by the Company (the "Debt Forgiveness"). The forgiven amounts consisted of accrued salaries that had been reflected as liabilities on the Company's balance sheet.
The following table sets forth the amounts forgiven by each individual:
| Name | Title | Amount Forgiven | ||||
| Christer Rosén | Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Director | $ | 356,024 | |||

| Marshall Hayward, Ph.D. | Chief Scientific Officer and Director | $ | 287,075 | |||
| Alexander Rosén | Chief Administrative Officer | $ | 150,785 | |||
Pursuant to the Forgiveness Agreements, effective as of August 26, 2026, each applicable individual agreed to irrevocably terminate and forgive in full the accrued compensation obligations owed by the Company to such individual. The Debt Forgiveness was gratuitous, and the Company did not issue any equity securities or pay any cash or other consideration in exchange for the forgiveness of such obligations. In addition, each Forgiveness Agreement contains a general release of claims by the applicable individual in favor of the Company and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, stockholders and agents with respect to claims arising out of or relating to the forgiven compensation obligations, subject to customary exceptions, including claims arising under the Forgiveness Agreement itself.
The foregoing summary of the Forgiveness Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of the Forgiveness Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
