Item 1.01 – Entry in Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 9, 2023, AgeX and Juvenescence Limited (“Juvenescence”) entered into an Amended and Restated Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Amended Note”) which amends and restates a February 14, 2022 Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Original Note”) and provides that AgeX may borrow up to an additional $2,000,000 from Juvenescence until May 9, 2023 subject to Juvenescence’s discretion to approve each loan draw. AgeX may not draw more than $1 million in any single draw. The Repayment Date on which the outstanding principal balance of the Amended Note will become due and payable shall be February 14, 2024, consistent with the terms of the Original Note.
The other material provisions of the Original Note, including but not limited to those pertaining to loan origination fees, default provisions, provisions governing the rights of AgeX and Juvenescence to convert the loan balance and any accrued but unpaid origination fees into shares of AgeX common stock, and provisions requiring AgeX to issue common stock purchase warrants to Juvenescence in connection with borrowings remain in effect and will apply to any draw down of the additional $2,000,000 credit available under the Amended Note.
AgeX’s obligations under the Amended Note, including with respect to any additional borrowings, will be secured by the security interests in AgeX assets granted to Juvenescence pursuant to a February 14, 2022 Security Agreement between AgeX and Juvenescence (the “Security Agreement”).
Reaffirmation and Amendment Agreement
In connection with the Amended Note, AgeX and Juvenescence entered into a Reaffirmation and Amendment Agreement (the “Reaffirmation Agreement”) pursuant to which AgeX reaffirmed its obligations under certain agreements between AgeX and Juvenescence that originally pertained to the Original Note, including but not limited to (i) the Security Agreement, (ii) a Registration Rights Agreement, as amended, and (iii) a Warrant Agreement. The Reaffirmation Agreement also amended the Warrant Agreement to provide that the Warrant Agreement also pertains to the Amended Note and any future amendment of the Original Note.
