RESTATED AGREEMENT
AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT
This AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT, dated as of August 12, 2025 (this “Agreement”), is made by and between BT Brands, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (the “BTB”), and NGI Corporation, a Wyoming corporation (the “NGI”).
In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Sale of Bottles to BTB; Purchase Price.
(a) Option to Purchase Bottles. NGI does hereby grant to BTB the option to purchase up to 750,000 aluminum bottles as described in Schedule A hereto (“Bottles”). BTB may exercise its option to purchase any or all of the Bottles (each a “Purchased Bottle”) from time to time by delivering to NGI, which shall be deemed notice of the purchase of the Bottles, upon funding costs associated with the bottle processing. The number of Bottles purchased and the date of the purchase (each a “Purchase Order”) shall be deemed to be as of the date of the advance at the rate of $1.00 per bottle transferred to BTB.
(b) Purchase Price and Payment. BTB shall pay amounts associated with the NGI Disney Water program. Each dollar funded shall be deemed to be one bottle at the purchase price of $1.00 for each purchased bottle. BTB may remit the aggregate purchase price for the number of Purchased Bottles covered by a Purchase Order directly to vendors associated with the program, at its sole discretion. BTB shall deliver payment of the purchase price for Purchased Bottles directly to vendors. The Parties agree to prepare a reconciliation upon the closing and delivery of Purchased Bottles. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, BTB shall not have any liability or be obligated to make any vendor payments.
2. Delivery of Bottles. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Bottles were shipped and were initially stored at the facilities of UNIX PACKAGING LLC located at 9 Minson Way, Montebello, CA 90604 (the “Co-Packer”) for processing and have been transferred to Komar, an independent warehouse and logistics company, for distribution. NGI shall fulfill its obligation to deliver Purchased Bottles to BTB under this Agreement by instructing the firm holding the inventory in writing to segregate BTB Purchased Bottles from all other materials held on NGI’s behalf, including other aluminum bottles owned by NGI. NGI shall request that the holder of the product confirm in writing that it has honored NGI’s request, and NGI shall transmit this confirmation to BTB promptly after receipt.
3. Consent to Sale of Purchased Bottles by NGI. NGI hereby consents to the processing, sale and delivery of Bottles by BTB on such terms and conditions as BTB or NGI may negotiate with subsequent purchasers of Bottles. BTB agrees that to the extent it sells a Bottle for a price in excess of $1.50, after deducting all Sales Costs (as defined below), it shall pay NGI a sum per Bottle equal to the sum BTB receives beyond $1.50 for each Bottle. Or in the event NGI negotiates a sale of Bottles owned by BT Brands, NGI shall remit the payment of $1.50 to BTB no more than 45 days following shipment. “Sales Costs” means all processing, shipping and transportation costs, administrative and other sales costs reasonably incurred by BTB in connection with the sale and delivery of Bottles to a subsequent purchaser.
4. NGI Repurchase Option. At any time while BTB possesses any Purchased Bottles, NGI shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to repurchase any Bottles in BTB’s possession for $1.50. NGI agrees that it shall be responsible for all costs associated with taking possession of Bottles it purchases from BTB pursuant to this Section 4.
5. Warranties. NGI warrants to BTB that on the date of the purchase and sale of any Bottles or Additional Bottles, all such aluminum bottles will: (a) be merchantable; (b) be free of security interests, except for the right of BT Brands; and (c) not infringe or misappropriate any third party's patent or other intellectual property rights. These warranties survive any delivery, inspection, acceptance, or payment of or for the Bottles or Additional Bottles by BTB. These warranties are cumulative and in addition to any other warranty provided by law or equity. Any applicable statute of limitations runs from the date of BTB's discovery of the noncompliance of the Bottles or Additional Bottles with the foregoing warranties.
6. Compliance with Law. NGI complies with and shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances. NGI has and shall maintain in effect all the licenses, permissions, authorizations, consents, and permits that it needs to carry out its obligations under this Agreement.

7. General Indemnification. NGI shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless BTB and its officers, directors, accountants, advisors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and permitted assigns (collectively, “Indemnified Party”) against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including reasonable attorneys' fees, fees and the costs of enforcing any right to indemnification under this Agreement and the cost of pursuing any insurance providers, incurred by Indemnified Party (collectively, “Losses”), relating to, arising out of or resulting from any claim of a third party or BTB arising out of or occurring in connection with the Bottles or Additional Bottles or NGI's negligence, willful misconduct, or breach of this Agreement. NGI shall not enter into any settlement without BTB's or, as applicable, another Indemnified Party’s prior written consent.
8. Survival. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement: (a) the representations and warranties of the Parties contained herein shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement; and (b) Section 6 of this Agreement, as well as any other provision that, in order to give proper effect to its intent, should survive such expiration or termination, shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
