**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement** 

**<u>Extension of Agreement with Chief Financial Officer</u>**

On March 21, 2023, BioLargo, Inc. ("we", or the "Company") and our Chief Financial Officer Charles K. Dargan, II formally agreed to extend the engagement agreement dated February 1, 2008 (the "Engagement Agreement", which had been previously extended multiple times), pursuant to which Mr. Dargan has been and continues to serve as the Company's Chief Financial Officer. The Engagement Extension Agreement dated as of March 21, 2023 (the "Engagement Extension Agreement") provides for an additional one-year term to expire January 31, 2024 (the "Extended Term"), at which time Mr. Dargan will continue to serve as CFO, unless and until either party terminates the agreement.

As the sole compensation for the Extended Term, Mr. Dargan was issued an option ("Option") to purchase 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock for each month during the Extended Term (thus, an option to purchase 300,000 shares reflecting an extended term of 12 months). The Option vests over the period of the Extended Term, with 25,000 shares having vested as of March 21, 2023, and the remaining shares to vest 25,000 shares monthly beginning March 31, 2023, and each month thereafter, so long as the agreement is in full force and effect. The Option is exercisable at $0.20 per share, the closing price of BioLargo's common stock on the March 21, 2023 grant date, expires ten years from the grant date, and was issued pursuant to the Company's 2018 Equity Incentive Plan.

The Option is Mr. Dargan's sole compensation for the Extended Term. As was the case in all prior terms of his engagement, there is no cash component of his compensation for the Extended Term. Mr. Dargan is eligible to be reimbursed for business expenses he incurs in connection with the performance of his services as the Company's Chief Financial Officer (although he has made no such requests for reimbursement in the past). All other provisions of the Engagement Agreement not expressly amended pursuant to the Engagement Extension Agreement remain the same, including provisions regarding indemnification and arbitration of disputes.

## Exhibit 10.3

**Exhibit 10.3**

**BioLargo, Inc.**

**2023 Engagement Extension Agreement**

This Engagement Extension Agreement (the "**Extension**") references the Engagement Agreement and Scope Letter dated February 1, 2008 ("**2008 Agreement**") by and between CFO 911 (Charles K. Dargan II) (the "**Advisor**)" and BioLargo, Inc. (the "**Company**"), and written extensions to the Agreement (the "**Prior Extensions**"), pursuant to which Charles K. Dargan II has been serving as the Company's Chief Financial Officer. The parties desire to extend the terms of the prior agreements for a period of one year, pursuant to the terms of this Extension. The 2008 Agreement, the Prior Extensions and this Extension are collectively referred to herein as the "Agreement".

Except as expressly amended or modified herein, all terms and conditions set forth in the 2008 Agreement and Prior Extensions are incorporated herein by this reference and continue to be in full force and effect. The parties acknowledge and confirm that Mr. Dargan has been serving as the Company's Chief Financial Officer since February 1, 2008, and that he continues to do so through today's date. The prior extension expired on January 31, 2023. The Advisor and the Company hereby agree to extend the Term of the engagement as set forth in the 2008 Agreement for one year, to expire January 31, 2024 (the "**Extended Term**"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days' written notice. At the end of the Extended Term, unless this Agreement has been terminated, Advisor shall continue to serve as the Company's Chief Financial Officer until one of the parties gives notice to terminate the relationship.

During the Extended Term, the Advisor shall receive the compensation as set forth in this Extension. The Company shall issue to Charles K. Dargan II an option (the "Option") to purchase 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock for each month during the Extended Term (thus, an option to purchase 300,000 shares, representing 12 months). The Option shall vest over the period of the Extended Term, with 25,000 shares having vested as of March 21, 2023, and the remaining shares to vest 25,000 shares monthly beginning March 31, 2023, and the end of each month thereafter, so long as this Agreement is in full force and effect. The Option shall be exercisable at the closing price of the Company's common stock ($0.20) on March 21, 2023 (the "Grant Date"), and shall expire ten years from the grant date. The Option shall be issued pursuant to the Company's 2018 Equity Incentive Plan.
