Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
On April 04, 2022, AgeX borrowed an additional $1 million under the Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Secured Note”) dated as of February 14, 2022 with Juvenescence Limited (“Juvenescence”). AgeX has now borrowed $9,160,000 of the line of credit under the Secured Note. The remaining $4 million of the line of credit may be drawn down from time to time through the first anniversary date subject to Juvenescence’s discretion to approve each loan draw. AgeX may not draw more than $1 million in any subsequent single draw. The outstanding principal balance of the Secured Note will become due and payable on February 14, 2024 (the “Repayment Date”).
In lieu of accrued interest, AgeX will pay Juvenescence an Origination Fee in an amount equal to 4% of the amount each draw of loan funds, which will accrue as each draw is funded, and an additional 4% of all the total amount of funds drawn that will accrue following the end of the 12 month period during which funds may be drawn from the line of credit. The Origination Fee will become due and payable on the Repayment Date or in a pro rata amount with any prepayment of in whole or in part of the outstanding principal balance of the Secured Note.
The Outstanding Amount may become immediately due and payable prior to the Repayment Date if an Event of Default as defined in the Secured Note occurs.

(i) any injunction, order, judgment or decision of any court is entered or issued which, in the opinion of Juvenescence, materially and adversely affects, or is reasonably likely so to affect, the ability of AgeX or a subsidiary to carry on its business or to pay amounts owed to Juvenescence under the Secured Note; (j) AgeX, whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, sells, leases, licenses, consigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of any material portion of its assets (with any such disposition with respect to any asset or assets with a fair value of at least $250,000 being deemed material), other than (i) certain permitted investments (ii) sales, transfers and dispositions of inventory in the ordinary course of business, (iii) any termination of a lease of real or personal property that is not necessary in the ordinary course of the AgeX’s business, could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect and does not result from AgeX’s default, and (iv) any sale, lease, license, consignment, transfer or other disposition of assets that are no longer necessary in the ordinary course of business or which has been approved in writing by Juvenescence;
