Item 3.01 - Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

On June 1, 2020 we received a letter (the “Deficiency Letter”) from the staff of the NYSE American (the “Exchange”) indicating that AgeX does not meet certain of the Exchange’s continued listing standards as set forth in Section 1003(a)(i) of the Exchange Company Guide in that we have stockholders equity of less than $2,000,000 and have incurred losses from continuing operations and/or net losses during our two most recent fiscal years. Pursuant to Section 1009 of the Exchange Company Guide and as provided in the Deficiency Letter we may provide the Exchange staff with a plan (the "Plan") by July 1, 2020 advising the Exchange staff of action we have taken and will take that would bring AgeX into compliance with the Exchange’s continued listing standards by December 1, 2021. We intend to submit a Plan by the July 1, 2020 deadline.
 
There is no assurance that the Exchange staff will accept the Plan. If the Exchange staff accepts the Plan, the Exchange staff will review AgeX’s compliance with the Plan on a quarterly basis and if AgeX does not show progress consistent with the Plan or is not in compliance with the Exchange’s continued listing standards by December 1, 2021, the Exchange will commence delisting procedures. If the Exchange staff does not accept the Plan, the Exchange staff will promptly initiate delisting proceedings.
 
AgeX intends to make arrangements to have its common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board if its common stock is delisted from the NYSE American.
