Remarks: This Form 3 reports the reporting person's initial beneficial ownership upon his appointment as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Issuer pursuant to the Board Resolution of Sentient Brands Holdings, Inc. adopted February 20, 2026 (the "BOD Resolution"). Although the BOD Resolution recites a contractual effective date of January 1, 2026 for compensation and service purposes, the date of event requiring statement under Section 16(a) is reported as February 20, 2026--the date the Board adopted the resolution. Effective May 1, 2026, the reporting person was additionally designated the Issuer's acting "principal executive officer" for purposes of Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, pursuant to the Action by Unanimous Written Consent of the Board dated May 1, 2026. The 58,456 shares of Common Stock reported in Table I are held directly in a brokerage account in the reporting person's name. All such shares were acquired in open-market purchases between May 29, 2025 and February 5, 2026, prior to the reporting person becoming a Section 16(a) reporting person on February 20, 2026. Accordingly, no transactions are reportable on Form 4 or Form 5 with this initial statement. Possible indirect beneficial ownership of derivative securities through GA3 Consortium, LLC (which holds two SNBH convertible notes with aggregate principal of approximately $715,000 acquired from Leonite Capital) is under review. The reporting person serves as Managing Partner of American Industrial Group, Inc., the investor and non-managing Limited Member of GA3. If, after consultation with counsel, he is determined to beneficially own such derivative securities for Section 16 purposes, Table II will be completed in an amended Form 3 and the underlying conversion/warrant terms disclosed.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, See Instruction 6 for procedure. Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
