SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT

 

This Agreement is entered into by Thomas Okarma (“Purchaser”) and BioTime Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company).

1.                    Acquisition of Shares.

 

(a)            Purchaser hereby irrevocably agrees to tender to the Company 1,000 shares of common stock of Geron Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Geron Stock”), in exchange for 1,700 shares of Series B common stock, no par $0.0001 per share of the Company (“Shares”).

(b)            This Agreement will become an irrevocable obligation of Purchaser to purchase the number of Shares specified in paragraph (a) of this Section 1 in exchange for 1,000 shares of Geron Stock when a copy of this Agreement, signed by Purchaser, is countersigned by the Company.  Purchaser shall either (i) deliver the certificates evidencing the Geron Stock to the Company duly endorsed, or accompanied by an irrevocable stock power duly endorsed, for transfer to the Company, or (ii) cause the transfer agent and registrar of the Geron Stock to record the transfer the Geron Stock to the Company by book entry, and Purchaser shall provide evidence of such transfer to the Company.  If this Agreement is rejected or not accepted for any reason by the Company, all Geron Stock tendered by the Purchaser will be promptly returned, without interest or deduction.

3.                    Investment Representations.  Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a)            Purchaser has made such investigation of the Company as Purchaser deemed appropriate for determining to acquire (and thereby make an investment in) the Shares.  In making such investigation, Purchaser has had access to such financial and other information concerning the Company as Purchaser requested.  Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the Company is a start-up venture, without a history of operations, and has received only limited capital from its controlling shareholder BioTime, Inc.  Purchaser acknowledges receipt of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company, and copies of the minutes of the proceedings of the Board of Directors of the Company.  Purchaser has had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the executive officers of the Company concerning the Company, and to obtain such additional information concerning the Company as may have been possessed or obtainable by the Company without unreasonable effort or expense. All such questions have been answered to Purchaser’s satisfaction.

(b)            Purchaser understands that the Shares are being offered and sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or qualification under the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, or under the laws of any other states, in reliance upon the exemptions from such registration and qualification requirements for non-public offerings.  Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the availability of the aforesaid exemptions depends in part upon the accuracy of certain of the representations, declarations and warranties made by Purchaser, and the information provided by Purchaser, in this Agreement,  Purchaser is making such representations, declarations and warranties, and is providing such information, with the intent that the same may be relied upon by the Company and its officers and directors in determining Purchaser’s suitability to acquire the Shares.  Purchaser understands and acknowledges that no federal, state or other agency has reviewed or endorsed the offering of the Shares or made any finding or determination as to the fairness of the offering or completeness of the information provided to Purchaser by the Company.

1

(c)            Purchaser understands that the Shares may not be offered, sold, or transferred in any manner unless subsequently registered under the Act, or unless there is an exemption from such registration available for such offer, sale or transfer.

(d)            Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to enable Purchaser to utilize the information provided or otherwise made available to Purchaser by the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Shares and to make an informed investment decision.

(e)            Purchaser is acquiring the Shares solely for Purchaser’s own account and for investment purposes, and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution of the Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or unless there is an exemption from such registration available for such offer, sale or transfer, such as SEC Rule 144.

(f)            Purchaser is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Act.

(g)            Information provided to Purchaser by the Company include matters that may be considered “forward looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27(a) of the Act and Section 21(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which statements Purchaser acknowledges and agrees are not guarantees of future performance and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, and with respect to which the Company makes no representations or warranties.  Purchaser understands that the level of disclosure provided by the Company is less than that which would be provided in a securities offering registered under the Act in reliance on the sophistication and investment experience of Purchaser.

(h)            Purchaser understands that (1) this Agreement and other information provided to Purchaser by the Company contains confidential financial information about the Company and BioTime, Inc. that has not yet been publicly disclosed by the Company or BioTime, and therefore may be deemed material non-public information, (2) the Company is providing Purchaser the confidential information solely to satisfy its disclosure obligations under the Act in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, and (3) until such time as the Company files a registration statement under the Act, or  BioTime files a Form 8-K or other report under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing such information, Purchaser shall not (A) disclose to any other person any of the information contained in this Agreement or otherwise provided to Purchaser concerning the Company that has not previously been disclosed in a registration statement filed by the Company under the Act or in a report filed by BioTime under the Exchange Act, or (B) purchase or sell any common shares of the Company or BioTime.

4.                    Accredited Investor Qualification.  Purchaser qualifies as an “accredited investor” under Regulation D under the Act in the following manner.  (Please check or initial all that apply to verify that you qualify as an “accredited investor.”)

	x    (a)	Purchaser is a natural person whose net worth, or joint net worth with spouse, at the date of purchase exceeds $1,000,000 (not including the value of Purchaser’s principal residence and excluding mortgage debt secured by Purchaser’s principal residence up to the estimated fair market value of the home, except that any mortgage debt incurred by Purchaser within 60 days prior to the date of this Agreement shall not be excluded from the determination of Purchaser’s net worth unless such mortgage debt was incurred to acquire the residence).

	x    (b)	Purchaser is a natural person whose individual gross income (excluding that of spouse) exceeded $200,000 in each of the past two calendar years, and who reasonably expects individual gross income exceeding $200,000 in the current calendar year.

If, from any circumstance whatsoever, performance or fulfillment of any provision of this Note shall, at the time of performance or fulfillment of such provision shall be due, exceed the limit for Interest prescribed by law, then ipso facto the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall be reduced to such limit and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, Lender shall ever receive anything of value deemed Interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive Interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal (whether or not then due) or at the option of Lender be paid over to the Borrower, and not to the payment of Interest.

7.             Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a)            The Borrower hereby waives demand for payment, presentment for payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of nonpayment, notice of acceleration of maturity, diligence in taking any action to collect sums owing hereunder and all duty or obligation of Lender to effect, protect, perfect, retain or enforce any security for the payment of this Note or to proceed against any collateral before otherwise enforcing this Note.

(b)            This Note and each payment of principal and interest hereunder shall be paid when due without deduction or setoff of any kind or nature or for any costs whatsoever.

10

(c)            The Borrower agrees to reimburse Lender upon demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, incurred in connection with Lender's collection of payments due from Borrower hereunder.

(d)            The Borrower agrees that Lender may from time to time extend the maturity of this Note or the time any payment is due under this Note and may accept further security or release security for the payment of this Note, without in any way affecting any obligations of the Borrower to Lender.

(e)            This Amended and Restated Term Loan Note is given in replacement of and substitution for, but not in repayment of, the Term Loan Note dated June 29, 2012 in the principal amount of $2,000,000.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower has executed this Note to be effective as of the day and year first-above written.
