Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 11, 2026, Onconetix,
Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Grid Promissory Note (the “Note”) with Realbotix, LLC (“Realbotix”),
pursuant to which the Company agreed to make available to Realbotix loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $5.0 million, of which
$2.5 million was advanced on September 11, 2026. The proceeds of the loans may be used by Realbotix for general corporate and working
capital purposes. The Note is an unsecured obligation of Realbotix. The Note matures on September 11, 2027 and does not bear interest
prior to the earlier of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, dated February 11, 2026 (the “Share
Exchange Agreement”), or the termination of the Share Exchange Agreement. If the Share Exchange Agreement is terminated, interest
will accrue on the outstanding principal balance at a rate of 12% per annum until the Note is paid.
On February 11, 2026, the
Company entered into the Share Exchange Agreement with Realbotix, Realbotix Corp. and Simulacra Corporation, pursuant to which, subject
to the terms and conditions thereof, the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Realbotix in exchange
for newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Realbotix Transaction”). The consummation of the
Realbotix Transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the Company having at least $12.5 million in Net Cash at
closing.
Upon the closing of the transactions
contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, the Note and all obligations thereunder will automatically be cancelled and discharged,
and the Net Cash at Closing under the Share Exchange Agreement will be increased by $500,000 plus the aggregate principal amount then
outstanding under the Note.
Realbotix’s obligations
under the Note are guaranteed by Realbotix Corp. pursuant to a Guaranty of Payment, dated September 11, 2026 (the “Guaranty”).
The foregoing descriptions of the Note and the Guaranty do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference

GRID
PROMISSORY NOTE
Principal Amount: Up to $5,000,000.00
Issuance Date: September 11, 2026
Maturity Date: September 11, 2027
FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
on demand as permitted herein, Realbotix, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Borrower" or the “Company”)
whose business address is 40 Temperance St, Suite 3200, Toronto, ON M5H 0B4, promises to pay to the order of Onconetix, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Lender"), at its offices 1180 201 E. Fifth Street, Suite 1900, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202, or at
such other place as the Lender may designate in writing, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of loans (the "Loans")
outstanding hereunder, as conclusively evidenced on the grid attached hereto as Schedule I (the “Grid”).
Realbotix Corp., a Ontario corporation (the “Guarantor”) at is offices 40 Temperance St, Suite 3200, Toronto,
ON M5H 0B4, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and punctual payment and performance of all obligations
of the Borrower under this Note as set forth in Section 3 hereof and the Guaranty executed by Guarantor. Unless this Note is cancelled
in accordance with Section 8, all unpaid principal, together with any then accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts payable hereunder,
shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.
1. Use
of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used by Borrower for general corporate and working capital purposes. The proceeds
may not be used for distributions to members or repayment of affiliate or insider indebtedness.
2. Conclusiveness
of Grid. The Loans represented by this Note are such that, prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower may borrow, from time to time
hereunder up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the sum of Five Million U.S. Dollars ($5,000,000.00) (the “Maximum Principal
Amount”) to be funded from time to time upon written notice to the Lender (each amount borrowed, an “Advance”
and each such funding date, a “Funding Date”), provided that the Funding Conditions shall have been satisfied.
The Grid shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute conclusive proof of the amounts and dates of all advances, outstanding principal
amounts and repayment of principal in respect to the Loans.
3. Guaranty.
The Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Lender the due and punctual payment and performance
when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Borrower under this Note (collectively,
the “Guaranteed Obligations”). This guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection.
The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be primary, absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation,
impairment or termination for any reason. This guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations have been
indefeasibly paid and performed in full or are otherwise discharged in accordance with Section 8. The terms of the Guarantor’s liability
for the Guaranteed Obligations shall be governed by the terms of the form of Guaranty annexed hereto as Exhibit A.
4. Funding Conditions. The Advances shall be funded on the Funding Date, provided
that the following conditions shall have been satisfied (or waived in writing by Lender):
a. Borrower and Guarantor, as applicable, shall have duly executed and delivered the Note and this Note
shall remain in full force and effect;
b. The Share Exchange Agreement dated as of February 11, 2026 between Lender, Borrower, Guarantor and Simulacra
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Exchange Agreement”) shall remain in full force and effect and shall
not have been terminated, amended, or modified in any manner without Lender’s prior written consent;
c. Lender shall have received certified copies of resolutions duly adopted by Borrower and Guarantor authorizing
the execution, delivery and performance of this Note and the transactions contemplated thereby and such resolutions shall remain in full
force and effect and shall not have been terminated, modified, amended or superseded;
d. Borrower shall have delivered to Lender a schedule of all existing indebtedness of Borrower which schedule
shall include the amount of each indebtedness, the maturity date, description of periodic payments, if any, and the name of the lender
or creditor and whether such indebtedness is secured by asses of the Borrower;
e. Guarantor shall have duly executed the Guaranty in the form of Exhibit A annexed hereto; and
f. No Event of Default (as defined below) shall have occurred and be continuing.
5. Advances; Schedule I. Subject to the discretion of Lender to make any advance,
and provided that no Event of Default exists or is continuing, and further provided that the Funding Conditions are satisfied, upon the
written request of the Borrower, the Lender may fund each Advance to the Borrower on a Funding Date, with such Advance in the aggregate
not to exceed the Maximum Principal Amount. Upon delivery of each Advance to the Borrower, the Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower
to enter and record on Grid the amount of such Advance, the principal amount of such Loan and the Funding Date of such Advance without
any further action on the part of Borrower or any endorser or guarantor of this Note. The entry of an Advance on the Grid shall be prima
facie and presumptive evidence of the entered Loan and its conditions. The Lender’s failure to make an entry on the Grid, however,
shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Lender to make the Advance or of the Borrower or any endorser or guarantor
of this Note with respect to the Loan.
2
6. Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right,
at any time and from time to time, to prepay all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note without notice and without
premium, penalty, make-whole, or other prepayment charge. Any such prepayment shall reduce the outstanding principal balance of this Note
by the amount so prepaid. Each prepayment of principal shall reduce the Closing Credit (as defined below) on a dollar-for-dollar basis;
provided, however, that the Closing Credit shall in no event be less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000). For the avoidance
of doubt, the fixed $500,000 portion of the Closing Credit contemplated by the Section 8 shall be credited to Net Cash (as defined in
the Exchange Agreement) at the Closing (as defined below) irrespective of whether the outstanding principal amount of this Note has been
reduced or prepaid in full prior to the Closing.
7. Interest. Prior to the earlier of (a) the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Exchange Agreement (the “Closing”) or (b) the termination of the Exchange Agreement prior
to the Closing (the “Termination”), this Note shall not bear interest. Upon a Termination, interest shall accrue
on the outstanding principal balance of this Note at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum commencing on the date of such termination
and continuing until the outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest due under, this Note is paid in full. Interest
shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, no default interest, penalty interest, or other increased rate of interest shall apply under any circumstances.
8. Treatment at the Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, upon the Closing, and effective simultaneously therewith, (a) this Note and all obligations, liabilities and indebtedness evidenced
by or arising under this Note shall, automatically and without any further action by Lender, Borrower, Guarantor or any other Person (as
defined in the Exchange Agreement), be irrevocably cancelled, discharged and satisfied in full, and neither the Borrower nor the Guarantor
shall have any further liability with respect thereto; and (b) the Net Cash at Closing (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) shall be
increased by an amount equal to Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of this Note
immediately prior to the Closing (the “Closing Credit”). For illustrative purposes only and without limiting
the foregoing, if only the initial advance under this Note of $2,500,000 has been funded and no prepayment of principal has been made
prior to the Closing, the Closing Credit shall equal $3,000,000; provided, that if this Note has been prepaid in full prior to the Closing,
the Closing Credit shall equal $500,000.
9. Negative Covenant. As long as any portion of this Note remains outstanding,
unless the Lender shall have otherwise given prior written consent, the Borrower shall not, directly or indirectly enter into, create,
incur, assume, guarantee or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind, including, but not limited to, a guarantee,
on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom,
unless the net proceeds of such indebtedness are immediately used to repay the amounts due under this Note.
3
10. Waiver. The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest,
and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance and enforcement of this Note, and assent to
extensions of the time of payment or forbearance or other indulgence without notice. No delay or omission of the Lender in exercising
any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver of any such right or remedy. Acceptance by the Lender of any payment after demand
shall not be deemed a waiver of such demand. A waiver on one occasion shall not operate as a bar to or waiver of any such right or remedy
on any future occasion.
11. Events of Default. If any of the following events of default (each, an "Event
of Default") shall occur and be continuing following any cure period:
a. Failure to Pay Principal or Interest. The Borrower fails to pay the principal hereof or interest
thereon when due on this Note, whether at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise and such breach continues for a period of five (5)
business days written notice thereof to the Borrower from the Lender.
b. Breach of Covenants. The Borrower breaches the negative covenant contained in this Note such
breach continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to the Borrower from the Lender.
c. Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any agreement, statement
or certificate given pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made and the

Note.
d. Change of Control Transaction. The Company or Guarantor shall be a party to any Change of Control
Transaction or shall agree to sell or dispose of all or in excess of 50% of its assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions

used to pay all amounts due under the Note.
i. “Change of Control Transaction” means the occurrence after the date hereof
of any of (a) an acquisition after the date hereof by an individual or legal entity or “group” (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(1)

by contract or otherwise) of in excess of 50% of the voting securities of the Borrower, (b) the Borrower merges into or consolidates with
any other Person, or any Person merges into or consolidates with the Company and, after giving effect to such transaction, the shareholders

the Note, in each case when due at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise;
(b) all
other payment and performance obligations of Borrower under the Note, including all costs of collection that Borrower is required to pay
under Section 16(d) of the Note;
(c) all
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in enforcing this Guaranty, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law (collectively, the “Expenses”); and
(d) notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Guaranty, upon the Closing and effective simultaneously therewith, the Guaranteed Obligations and this
Guaranty shall automatically and irrevocably be cancelled, discharged and satisfied in full, and Guarantor shall have no further liability
hereunder, all in accordance with Section 8 of the Note.
3. Conditional
Guaranty. Default Notice and Cure. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, Lender shall not exercise any rights or remedies against
Guarantor, nor shall Guarantor be in default hereunder, unless and until:
(a) an Event of Default
under the Note has occurred and is continuing beyond any applicable notice and cure period provided to Borrower therein;
(b) Lender has delivered
written notice to Guarantor specifying such Event of Default; and
(c) Guarantor has failed to cure such Event of Default
within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such written notice.
Subject to the foregoing
notice and cure rights, the terms of the Note (including Section 8 thereof), and the receipt of any required regulatory approvals (including
the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange, if applicable), Lender may proceed directly against Guarantor to collect amounts then due
and payable hereunder. Guarantor waives and releases any claim (within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. § 101) against Borrower arising from
a payment by Guarantor under this Guaranty, and agrees not to exercise any subrogation, contribution, or reimbursement right against Borrower,
in each case only until the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full or otherwise cancelled, discharged, and satisfied
in accordance with Section 8 of the Note.
4. Liability
Unimpaired. Subject in all cases to Section 8 of the Note, Guarantor’s liability shall not be limited or impaired by: (i) any
extension, renewal, forbearance, amendment or modification of the Note or any other Loan Document made in accordance with its terms; (ii)
any settlement or compromise with, or release of, Borrower or any other Person liable for the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any failure
by Lender to exercise, or delay by Lender in exercising, any right or remedy; (iv) the invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability, in
whole or in part, of the Note, any other Loan Document or any obligation of Borrower thereunder; or (v) any other action or circumstance
that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor, other than the indefeasible payment and performance
in full of the Guaranteed Obligations or the cancellation, discharge and satisfaction thereof at the Closing in accordance with Section
8 of the Note. Nothing in this Section shall expand Guarantor’s liability beyond the obligations of Borrower under the Note.
5. Defined
Terms. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Guaranty have the meanings given to them in the Note. As used herein, the following
terms have the meanings set forth below:
(a) “Closing”
has the meaning given to such term in the Note.
2
(b) “Affiliate”
means, with respect to any Person, any other Person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control
with such Person; and “control” means the direct or indirect power to direct or cause the direction of the management and
policies of a Person, whether through ownership, contract or otherwise.
(c) “Enforcement
Costs” means the Expenses and any other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Lender in enforcing this
Guaranty, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(d) “Exchange
Agreement” means the Share Exchange Agreement dated as of February 11, 2026 among Lender, Borrower, Guarantor and Simulacra
Corporation, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.
(e) “Person”
means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, estate, trust, unincorporated association, governmental
authority or other entity.
6. Preservation
of Loan Documents. Guarantor will not cause or permit Borrower to take or fail to take any action for the purpose of impairing the
enforceability of the Loan Documents or creating a defense to Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, subject to Borrower’s and
Guarantor’s express rights under the Note and the Exchange Agreement, including Section 8 of the Note.
7. Payments;
Certain Waivers. Guarantor waives presentment, demand (except as expressly required by Section 3 hereof or the Note), protest, notice
of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notice of default (except as expressly required by Section 3 hereof or the Note). Guarantor also waives
any right to require a marshalling of Borrower’s assets. Guarantor expressly retains all rights of subrogation, contribution, indemnification,
set-off, and reimbursement that Guarantor may have against Borrower or any other Person; provided, however, that Guarantor shall defer
the enforcement or exercise of any such rights, and such rights shall be subordinate to Lender’s right to payment under the Note,
solely during such time as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding and unpaid. Immediately upon the indefeasible payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations or the automatic cancellation, discharge, and satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations at the Closing pursuant
to Section 8 of the Note, all such subrogation, contribution, indemnification, set-off, and reimbursement rights of Guarantor shall automatically
be fully unencumbered, reinstated, and enforceable without further action by any party.
8. Reinstatement.
Except for the cancellation, discharge and satisfaction of this Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations at the Closing pursuant to Section
8 of the Note, this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated automatically, as applicable, if any payment of a Guaranteed
Obligation is rescinded or otherwise must be restored or returned by Lender as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise in connection
with an insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Borrower. In that event, all reasonable Enforcement Costs
incurred by Lender in defending or enforcing such continuance or reinstatement shall be included in the Expenses guaranteed under Section
2.
9. Litigation;
Compliance with Judgments. Guarantor represents and warrants that there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to Guarantor’s
knowledge, threatened against Guarantor, at law, in equity or before any governmental authority, that would reasonably be expected to
have a material adverse effect on Guarantor’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder. To Guarantor’s knowledge, Guarantor
is not in default with respect to any order, writ, injunction, decree or demand of any court or governmental authority that would reasonably
be expected to have such an effect.
3
10. Authorization
and Enforceability; No Conflicts. Guarantor represents and warrants that it has full power and authority to enter into and perform
its obligations under this Guaranty; the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty have been authorized by all necessary corporate
action; and this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor, enforceable against Guarantor in accordance
with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other legal or equitable principles now or hereafter
in effect generally affecting creditors’ rights and remedies. Guarantor further represents and warrants that the execution, delivery
and performance of this Guaranty do not and will not violate Guarantor’s organizational documents, applicable law or any material
agreement binding on Guarantor or its assets.
11. Compliance
with Laws. Guarantor represents and warrants that the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty do not and will not violate
any applicable federal, state, provincial or local law, rule, regulation, ordinance, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination
or award, or require any filing, registration, consent or approval thereunder, except for any filing, registration, consent or approval
that has been made or obtained and remains in full force and effect.
12. Accuracy
of Information; Full Disclosure. Guarantor represents and warrants that no document, financial statement, report, notice, schedule,
certificate, statement or other writing furnished by or on behalf of Guarantor to Lender in connection with this Guaranty or the Loans
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light
of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in each case as of the date furnished.
13. Non-Waiver;
Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document or this Guaranty
shall operate as a waiver thereof or constitute acquiescence in any default by Borrower or Guarantor. A waiver on one occasion shall not
bar the exercise of any right or remedy on a future occasion. Subject to the Note, the rights and remedies provided in the Loan Documents
and this Guaranty are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
14. Transfers
of Interests in Loans. Lender may sell, assign or transfer the Note, this Guaranty or any interest therein only as permitted by Section
16(c) of the Note. Guarantor consents to Lender’s disclosure of the Loan Documents and information relating to Borrower or Guarantor
to any prospective or actual transferee in connection with a transfer permitted by the Note, subject to applicable law and customary confidentiality
obligations.
15. Subordination
of Guarantor Loans. Any indebtedness now or hereafter owed by Borrower to Guarantor or any Affiliate of Guarantor is and shall remain
subordinate to the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor shall not accept any payment of principal or interest on such indebtedness while
prohibited by Sections 1 or 9 of the Note. This Section shall cease to apply when the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid
and performed in full or otherwise discharged in accordance with Section 8 of the Note.
16. Severability.
If any provision of this Guaranty, or its application to any Person or circumstance, is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
such provision shall be ineffective in that jurisdiction only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability, without invalidating
the remaining provisions of this Guaranty or the application of such provision to any other Person, circumstance or jurisdiction.
4
17. Entire
Agreement; Amendments. This Guaranty contains the entire agreement of Guarantor and Lender with respect to its subject matter and
supersedes all prior oral or written agreements or statements relating to such subject matter. No provision of this Guaranty may be waived,
amended or terminated except by a written instrument signed by Guarantor and Lender; provided that this sentence shall not limit the automatic
cancellation, discharge and satisfaction provided by Section 8 of the Note.
18. Successors
and Assigns. This Guaranty shall bind Guarantor and its successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender
and its successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Guaranty nor any right hereunder may be assigned or transferred except in connection
with a transfer of the Note permitted by Section 16(c) of the Note.
19. Arbitration;
Waiver of Trial by Jury. This Note and all actions arising out of or in connection herewith or therewith shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State of Delaware
or of any other state, country or jurisdiction. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this Note, the other
Loan Documents, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, shall be resolved exclusively by final and
binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect. The arbitration
shall be conducted by a single arbitrator (mutually agreed upon by the Borrower and the Lender) in Wilmington, Delaware. Judgment upon
the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party
may seek temporary, preliminary, or permanent injunctive relief or other equitable remedies from the arbitrator, and any court having
jurisdiction may grant provisional remedies in aid of arbitration and enforce any arbitral award. EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND
IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN COURT, EXCEPT AS NECESSARY TO ENFORCE THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION
OR AN ARBITRATION AWARD.
20. Provisional
Remedies; Enforcement of Awards. Notwithstanding Section 19, either Guarantor or Lender may seek temporary, preliminary or permanent
injunctive relief or other equitable remedies from the arbitrator, and any court having jurisdiction may grant provisional remedies in
aid of arbitration and enforce any arbitral award.
21. Governing
Law. This Guaranty and all actions arising out of or in connection with it shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict-of-laws provisions of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction.
