July 21, 2020, with Juvenescence Limited (“Juvenescence”). The
outstanding principal balance of the loans under the New Loan

“Repayment Date”).
Juvenescence
may declare the outstanding principal balance of the loans and
other sums owed under the New Loan Agreement immediately due and
payable prior to the Repayment Date if an Event of Default occurs
and continues uncured for 10 business days after notice of default
from Juvenescence. Events of Default under the New Loan Agreement

time provided in the New Loan Agreement and the failure to pay is
not remedied within 10 business days; (ii) AgeX fails to perform
any of its obligations under the New Loan Agreement and if the
failure can be remedied it is not remedied to the satisfaction of
Juvenescence within 10 business days after notice to AgeX; (iii)

or discontinues its business or becomes unable to pay its debts as
they become due or enters into any arrangement with creditors
generally, (v) AgeX becoming insolvent or in liquidation or
administration or other insolvency procedures, or a receiver,
trustee or similar officer is appointed in respect of all or any
part of its assets and such appointment continues undischarged or
unstayed for sixty days, (vi) it becomes illegal for AgeX to
perform its obligations under the New Loan Agreement or any
governmental permit, license, consent, exemption or similar
requirement for AgeX to perform its obligations under the New Loan
Agreement or to carry out its business is not obtained or ceases to
remain in effect; (vii) the issuance or levy of any judgment, writ,
warrant of attachment or execution or similar process against all
or any material part of the property or assets of AgeX if such
process is not released, vacated or fully bonded within sixty
calendar days after its issue or levy; (viii) any injunction, order
or judgement of any court is entered or issued which in the opinion
of Juvenescence materially and adversely affects the ability of
AgeX to carry out its business or to pay amounts owed to
Juvenescence under the New Loan Agreement, (ix) there is a change
in AgeX’s financial condition that in the opinion of Juvenescence
materially and adversely affects, or is likely to so affect, its
ability to perform any of its obligations under the New Loan
Agreement, (x) AgeX or any of its subsidiaries that guarantee’s
AgeX’s obligations or becomes a co-obligor under the New Loan
Agreement (each a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively the
“Guarantor Subsidiaries”) sells, leases, licenses, consigns,
transfers, or otherwise disposes of a material part of its assets
other than inventory in the ordinary course of business or certain
intercompany transactions, or certain other limited permitted
transactions, unless Juvenescence approves, (xi) the security
interests under a Security Agreement, if in effect, are not valid
or perfected, or AgeX or a Guarantor Subsidiary contests the
validity of its obligations under the New Loan Agreement or
Security Agreement or other related agreement with Juvenescence, or
there is a loss, theft, damage or destruction of a material portion
of the collateral, (xii) any representation, warranty, or other
statement made by AgeX or a Guarantor Subsidiary under the New Loan
Agreement is incomplete, untrue, incorrect, or misleading, or
(xiii) AgeX or a Guarantor Subsidiary suspends or ceases to carry
on all or a material part of its business or threatens to do
so.
Item

New Loan Agreement (as defined in Item 2.03 of this Report), AgeX

(“Warrants”) at an exercise price of $0.85 per share:
