Forward Looking Statements
2
The matters discussed in this presentation include forward looking statements which are subject to various risks,uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated. Such risks anduncertainties include but are not limited to the success of AgeX Therapeutics in developing new stem cell products andtechnologies; results of clinical trials of such products; the ability of AgeX and its licensees to obtain additional FDA andforeign regulatory approval to market products; competition from products manufactured and sold or being developed byother companies; the price of and demand for such products; and the ability of AgeX to raise the capital needed to finance itscurrent and planned operations. Any statements that are not historical fact (including, but not limited to statements thatcontain words such as "will," "believes," "plans," "anticipates," "expects," "estimates") should also be considered to beforward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, risksinherent in the development and/or commercialization of potential products, uncertainty in the results of clinical trials orregulatory approvals, need and ability to obtain future capital, and maintenance of intellectual property rights. As actualresults may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements they should be evaluatedtogether with the many uncertainties that affect the business of AgeX and its subsidiaries, particularly those mentioned in thecautionary statements found in AgeXSecurities and Exchange Commission filings. AgeX disclaims any intent or obligation toupdate these forward-looking statements.
