Item 1.01 - Interim Promissory Note and Security Interest

Agreement

On April 8, 2026 FinTrade Sherpa, INC (the “Company”)

entered into an Interim Promissory Note with Lode Star Gold, INC (the “Lender”), the Company’s largest shareholder

and largest Current Liability debt holder, in connection with the Company’s existing financing arrangements. Under the terms of

the Interim Promissory Note, the Company granted the Lender a Security Interest in certain intellectual property assets, namely

its Alpha-Optimus project including but not limited to trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets, proprietary software, and related

goodwill (collectively, the “IP Collateral”).

The Security Interest was granted in connection with the Company’s

entry into an Interim Promissory Note dated April 8, 2026 under which the Lender provided periodic interim financing in the aggregate principal

amount of $74,811.50 as at the end of March 30, 2026 plus ongoing amounts due after the date of this filing. Retroactive to April 1, 2026,

FinTrade will pay a daily compounding interest rate of 0.0411% or 15.0015% per annum. The Company also agrees that all payments applied

to the debt shall be applied to the total interest accrued first before being applied to the principal balance. The period of this indebtedness

will mature on March 31, 2028

To perfect its Security Interest in the IP Collateral, the Lender

filed a UCC-1 Financing Statement with the Texas Secretary of State on April 1, 2026, naming the Company as debtor and

the Lender as secured party. The UCC-1 filing covers the IP Collateral described in the Security Agreement.

The Security Agreement contains customary representations, warranties,

covenants, and events of default for secured lending transactions of this type.

The foregoing description of the Security Agreement and related documents

does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements, which the Company intends

to file as exhibits to an amendment to this Form 8-K or with its next periodic report.

Item 2.03 - Creation of a Direct Financial

Exhibit 10.1

FinTrade Sherpa, INC

1 East Liberty Street

Suite 600

Reno, NV 89501

April 8, 2026

Dear Ms. Humphries;

Pursuant to your Letter of Termination of

Financial Support dated April 1, 2026.

First, let me mention FinTrade Sherpa, INC’s (FinTrade, Company,

Borrower) appreciation of your financial support when no other supporting funding was available. Unfortunately, communication with the

other major parties affiliated with the Alpha-Optimus project has not yielded additional funding at the moment.

We do recognize the Company’s indebtedness to you of $74,811.50 plus

certain “clean-up” expenses needed to be expended to maintain your company’s good standing within its community

of purveyors.

For time being may I propose the following as an Interim Promissory Note:

Whereas, The Company is the “Borrower” and Lode Star

Gold, INC is the “Lender”.

1. PRINCIPAL AMOUNT -The principal amount borrowed shall be $74,811.50 plus other remaining amounts yet to be added.

2. INTEREST RATE - Retroactive to April 1, 2026, FinTrade will pay a daily compounding interest rate of 0.0411% or 15.0015% per

annum. The Company also agrees that all payments applied to the debt shall be applied to the total interest accrued first before being

applied to the principal balance.

3. REPAYMENT TERMS - FinTrade agrees to repay the full amount of all monies owed later that May

31, 2028.

The Company further agrees to making monthly payments of not

less than US$8,000.00 commencing on June 1, 2026 and continuing on the same day of each subsequent month until the Note is paid in full.

4. METHOD OF PAYMENT – Payments shall be by bank transfer.

5. PREPAYMENT – The Company may prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty. Any prepayment shall

first be applied to accrued interest, then to principal.

6. LATE PAYMENT - The Company also understands that time is of the essence and will use its best efforts to pay off this indebtedness.

If any payment is more than 5 days late, the Borrower agrees to pay a late fee of 2% of the overdue amount.

Grace Period to Cure: Any payment that remains unpaid

more than 45 days after its due date shall be considered in DEFAULT at which Items 7 and 9b become effective.

7. DEFAULT – The Company shall be considered in default if:

a) The Borrower fails to make any required payment of principal or interest

b) The Borrower becomes insolvent or files for bankruptcy

c) The Borrower breaches any term of this Agreement

Upon default, the full remaining balance of principal and interest

shall become immediately due at the Lender’s discretion.

8. In the event that the Company has failed to pay all its aforementioned debt, Lode Star Gold, may convert, at a time of its own choosing,

a “Shares for Debt” at a price per share of no greater than the allowable discount to the then market price of the shares.

9. COLLATERAL - As collateral the Company hereby pledges the intellectual property as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement

between FinTrade Sherpa, INC and Tarka L'Herpiniere dated February 12, 2025.

The Company represents and warrants that:

· They are the sole and lawful owner of the Intellectual Property listed above.

· The Intellectual Property is free of all liens, claims, licenses, encumbrances, or security interests unless otherwise disclosed in

writing to the Lender.

· They have full authority to grant a security interest in the Intellectual Property.

The Borrower agrees not to transfer, license, assign, encumber,

or otherwise dispose of the Intellectual Property without the Lender’s prior written consent.

a) UCC-1 Filing

To perfect the Lender’s security interest in the Collateral,

the Company recognizes the UCC-1 Financing Statement the Lender made with the State of Texas filed on April 1, 2026. The Company

agrees to execute any additional documents reasonably required to maintain or continue the perfection of the Lender’s security interest.

The Company further agrees that the Lender filed the aforementioned

UCC-1 Financing Statement without the need for the Company’s signature, to the extent permitted by law, and may describe

the Collateral in such filing in a manner sufficient to perfect the security interest, including using generic descriptions such as “all

assets” or “all general intangibles,” if applicable.

b) Rights Upon Default

In the event of default, the Lender may take possession of, license,

assign, sell, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral in accordance with applicable law. Proceeds shall be applied first to enforcement

and sale costs, then to accrued interest, and finally to principal. Any surplus shall be returned to the Borrower; any deficiency shall

remain the Borrower’s obligation.

10. GOVERNING LAW - This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada.

11. AMENDMENTS - Any modification to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both Parties.

Ms. Humphries, if you are agreeable to the above Terms and Conditions of

this Promissory Note dated April 8, 2026, please affix your signature below.
