Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On February 14, 2022, Aditxt, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Forbearance Agreement and Seventh Amendment to Secured Credit Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with AiPharma Global Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which intends to change its name to Cellvera Global Holdings LLC (“Cellvera Global”), Cellvera Holdings Ltd., a company formed under the laws of the British Virgin Islands f/k/a AiPharma Holdings Limited (“Cellvera Holdings”), Cellvera Asia Limited, a company formed under the laws of Hong Kong f/k/a AiPharma Asia Limited (“Cellvera Asia” and together with Cellvera Global and Cellvera Holdings, the “Borrower”). As of January 31, 2022, the Company’s $14.5 million loan (the “Loan”) to Borrower became fully due and payable under that certain Secured Credit Agreement dated as of August 27, 2021, as amended to date (the “Credit Agreement”).

 

Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, the Company agreed to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies against the Borrower and certain affiliated guarantor parties until the earlier of (i) June 30, 2022 or (ii) the date of occurrence of any event of default under the Forbearance Agreement (the “Forbearance Period”). Given that the parties continue to conduct due diligence in connection with that certain Share Exchange Agreement dated as of December 28, 2021 by and between the Company and AiPharma Group Ltd. (the “Share Exchange Agreement”), the Company and the Borrower also agreed that should the initial closing occur under the Share Exchange Agreement, the existing event of default will be waived. Under the Forbearance Agreement, the Company and the Borrower also agreed to certain amendments to the Credit Agreement, including, but not limited to: (i) the delivery by the Borrower of certain financial statements and forecasts, and (ii) certain regularly scheduled payments to be made by Borrower to the Company during the Forbearance Period.

 

The foregoing description of the Forbearance Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety to the full text of the Forbearance Agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor “provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including statements regarding the Company’s or Cellvera/AiPharma’s future results of operations and financial position are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “target,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and on the current expectations of the respective management teams of the Company and Cellvera/AiPharma and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by an investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company and Cellvera/AiPharma.

 

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks including, but not limited to, the following risks relating to the proposed transactions: (1) the risk that the proposed transactions may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of the Company’s securities; (2) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the Initial Closing or Secondary Closing, including the approval by the stockholders of the Company; (3) the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transactions; and (4) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the Company’s public filings with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or the Company’s and Cellvera’s/AiPharma’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements.

The Company and Cellvera/AiPharma anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s and Cellvera’s/AiPharma’s assessments to change. However, while the Company and Cellvera/AiPharma may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company and Cellvera/AiPharma specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except as otherwise required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s and Cellvera’s/AiPharma’s assessments of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
