Convertible Note Extension Agreement
As previously disclosed, on June 6, 2019, Orgenesis Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a private placement subscription agreement with J. Ezra Merkin (the “Lender”), pursuant to which the Lender purchased from the Company a 6% Unsecured Convertible Note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,950,000 (the “Convertible Note”), which is convertible, at the discretion of the Lender, into units at a conversion price of $7.00 per unit, each unit consisting of one share of Common Stock and a warrant, exercisable for three (3) years, to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $7.00 per share. On July 15, 2022, the Company and the Lender entered into an amendment to such Convertible Note, the Convertible Note Extension Agreement (the “Amendment”), which amended the Convertible Note as follows:
| ● | the Company agrees to pay an initial $500,000 repayment to the Lender on or prior to August 15, 2022, and if the repayment is not paid on August 15, 2022, it will constitute an event of default; |
| ● | the interest rate will increase from 6% to 8% per annum as of June 5, 2022; |
| ● | if an event of default has occurred, the interest on the unconverted and then outstanding principal amount shall accrue at the rate of 15% per annum; |
| ● | the Maturity Date shall be extended to September 10, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”); and |
| ● | as consideration for the Maturity Date extension, the Company agreed to grant the Lender warrants to purchase up to 330,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, exercisable for three years, at an exercise price of $4.50 per share (the “Warrants”). |
