AgeX Therapeutics Closes $36,000,000 Debt Exchange for Preferred Stock

AgeX Therapeutics, Inc. (“AgeX”; NYSE American: AGE), a biotechnology company developing therapeutics for human aging and regeneration, reported that on July 24, 2023, AgeX issued to Juvenescence Limited 211,600 shares of a newly authorized Series A Preferred Stock and 148,400 shares of a newly authorized Series B Preferred Stock in exchange for the cancellation of a total of $36 Million of indebtedness consisting of the outstanding principal amount of certain loans made by Juvenescence to AgeX and loan origination fees accrued with respect to those loans. The cancellation of indebtedness in exchange for the Preferred Stock was conducted pursuant to an Exchange Agreement between AgeX and Juvenescence. By completing the exchange of indebtedness for shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock (collectively referred to as the “Preferred Stock”), AgeX now has sufficient stockholders equity to meet the NYSE American continued listing requirements. Accordingly, the NYSE American staff has withdrawn its delisting determination and a scheduled hearing of AgeX’s appeal of that determination has been cancelled. The exchange of $36 Million of indebtedness for the Preferred Stock, on a proforma basis as of March 31, 2023, increased AgeX’s stockholder equity to approximately $16 Million from a deficit of approximately $20 Million. Actual stockholder equity will be reduced by losses recognized by AgeX subsequent to March 31, 2023, which are not reflected in the pro forma amounts, but AgeX’s stockholder equity now exceeds the $6 Million amount necessary to meet NYSE American continued listing requirements.

The NYSE American has approved the listing of the 36,939,190 shares of AgeX common stock into which the Preferred Stock is presently convertible. In order to comply with Section 713 of the NYSE American Company Guide, the issuance of an additional 13,060,809 shares of AgeX common stock upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock is currently restricted by a “cap” prohibiting issuance of those additional shares without the prior approval of AgeX stockholders.

The Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive any payment or distribution of cash or other dividends. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the affairs of AgeX, subject to the preferences and other rights of any senior stock, before any assets of AgeX shall be distributed to holders of common stock or other junior stock, all of the assets of AgeX available for distribution to stockholders shall be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock until AgeX shall have distributed to the holders of those shares an amount of assets having a value equal to the subscription price per share.

Each share of Preferred Stock will be convertible into a number of shares of AgeX common stock determined by dividing (x) a number equal to the number of dollars and cents comprising the subscription price, by (y) a number equal to the number of dollars and cents comprising the conversion price. The subscription price per share of Preferred Stock is $100 which was paid through the exchange of indebtedness for shares of Preferred Stock. The conversion price per share of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock is $0.72 which was the closing price of AgeX common stock on the NYSE American on the last trading day immediately preceding the execution of the Exchange Agreement. However, the issuance of 13,060,809 shares of common stock upon conversion of Series B Preferred Stock would require approval by AgeX stockholders in accordance with NYSE American rules.

The Preferred Stock has limited voting rights. The following matters will require the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of a series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, voting as a separate class: (i) creation of any Preferred Stock ranking as senior stock to the series with respect to liquidation preferences; (ii) repurchase of any shares of common stock or other junior stock except shares issued pursuant to or in connection with a compensation or incentive plan or agreement approved by the Board of Directors for any officers, directors, employees or consultants of AgeX; (iii) any sale, conveyance, or other disposition of all or substantially all AgeX’s property or business, or any liquidation or dissolution of AgeX, or a merger into or consolidation with any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation) but only to the extent that the Delaware General Corporation Law requires that such transaction be approved by each class or series of Preferred Stock; (iv) any adverse change in the powers, preferences and rights of, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions on, the series of Preferred Stock; or (v) any amendment of AgeX’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws that results in any adverse change in the powers, preferences and rights of, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions on, the series of Preferred Stock. Except as may otherwise be required by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Preferred Stock will have no other voting rights.
