Pharmakon Loan Agreement

On September 3, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), Precigen, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) and certain of our subsidiaries party thereto as guarantors entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with BioPharma Credit Investments V (Master) LP and BPCR Limited Partnership as the lenders thereunder (the “Lenders”) and BioPharma Credit PLC as the collateral agent, each of which are investment entities managed by Pharmakon Advisors, LP, which provides for a 5-year senior secured term loan facility of up to $125.0 million, composed of two committed tranches: (i) an initial tranche in an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million, which was funded on the Closing Date; and (ii) a delayed draw tranche in an aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million, which is available, subject to certain conditions, until June 29, 2027 (such tranches, collectively, the “Term Loans”). The Term Loans mature on September 3, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”). The Term Loans bear interest at Term SOFR (three-month tenor), subject to a 3.75% floor, plus 6.50%, payable quarterly. The Term Loans amortize in eight equal quarterly installments beginning on September 29, 2028 through the Maturity Date. The Term Loans may be voluntarily prepaid in whole (but not in part), and are subject to make-whole, prepayment premium and exit fees, and must be prepaid upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Loan Agreement). Proceeds of the Term Loans will be used to fund the Company’s general corporate and working capital requirements.

Our obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by substantially all of our U.S. assets, including intellectual property. Certain of our subsidiaries will, on and after the Closing Date, be required to guarantee our obligations under the Loan Agreement and, in connection with such guarantee, pledge substantially all of their assets, including intellectual property, to secure such guarantee.

The Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and restrictive covenants and representations and warranties. We and our subsidiaries are bound by certain affirmative covenants, including, without limitation, (i) information delivery requirements, (ii) obligations to maintain insurance, (iii) preservation of intellectual property and regulatory approvals, and (iv) compliance with applicable laws. Additionally, we and our subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictive covenants, including, without limitation, (i) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, (ii) limitations on the incurrence of liens, (iii) restrictions on the payment of dividends and other restricted payments, (iv) restrictions on investments, (v) restrictions on asset transfers, (vi) restrictions on mergers and similar transactions, (vii) restrictions on amendments to organizational documents and material contracts, in each case subject to specified exceptions, (viii) minimum net sales and (ix) minimum liquidity. The Loan Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties, including, without limitation, with respect to (i) organization, authority and enforceability, (ii) financial condition, (iii) compliance with laws, (iv) intellectual property and regulatory matters, and (v) the absence of a material adverse change.

The Loan Agreement also contains the following events of default: (i) failure to pay principal, interest or other amounts when due, (ii) the breach of covenants under the Loan Agreement, (iii) the occurrence of a material adverse change or a withdrawal event, (iv) certain attachments, levies or restraints on the credit parties’ assets or business, (v) certain insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy or similar events, (vi) certain cross-defaults of third-party indebtedness and hedging agreements, (vii) the failure to pay certain judgments, (viii) material misrepresentations, (ix) the loan documents ceasing to create a valid or perfected security interest in a material portion of the collateral, (x) the occurrence of certain ERISA events, and (xi) the occurrence of a default under any subordination or intercreditor agreement, in each case subject to the grace periods, cure periods and thresholds set forth in the Loan Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Lenders may, among other things, accelerate the Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement (including all obligations for principal, interest, premiums, makewhole amounts, exit consideration and other additional consideration), terminate further advances, and exercise remedies with respect to the collateral, including taking possession of, collecting, and selling collateral and applying proceeds to the obligations; provided that upon an event of default relating to certain insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy or similar events, all outstanding obligations will be immediately accelerated.
