Item 5.08 Shareholder Director Nominations.

Borealis Foods Inc. (the “Company”) has established June 29, 2026 as the date of the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). The Company did not hold an annual meeting of shareholders during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

The Annual Meeting will be held in a virtual-only format at 12:30 p.m. (Eastern Time) on June 29, 2026. Shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 26, 2026 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof. Instructions for accessing the virtual meeting will be included in the Company's proxy materials.

Shareholder Proposals and Director Nominations

Because the Company did not hold an annual meeting of shareholders during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Company is providing this notice pursuant to Item 5.08 of Form 8-K to inform shareholders of the deadlines for submitting shareholder proposals and director nominations in connection with the Annual Meeting.

Proposals for Inclusion in Proxy Materials (Rule 14a-8). Shareholders who wish to submit proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), must deliver such proposals to the Company's principal executive offices no later than May 25, 2026. The Company has determined this to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and send its proxy materials. Any such proposal must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8.

Director Nominations and Other Business (Advance Notice By-laws). Shareholders who wish to nominate directors or bring other business before the Annual Meeting outside of the Rule 14a-8 process must comply with the advance notice provisions set forth in the Company’s by-laws. Because the date of the Annual Meeting was not previously disclosed, shareholder nominations and proposals submitted pursuant to the Company's advance notice by-law provisions must be received by the Company no later than the close of business on May 25, 2026, which is the tenth (10th) day following the date on which public announcement of the date of the Annual Meeting is first made.

Any shareholder proposal or director nomination must comply with the applicable requirements of the Company's by-laws and the Exchange Act. The Company’s by-laws are available on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website at www.sec.gov and on the Company's investor relations website. Shareholders may also obtain a copy by writing to:
