Company intends to use the net proceeds from this financing primarily to rapidly increase its ETH holdings

This milestone follows the announcement of the Company's recently closed $425 million private placement

PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- 180 Life Sciences Corp. (Nasdaq: ATNF), (the "Company" or "ETHZilla"), today announced that it has sold approximately $156 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured convertible notes due 2028 (the "Convertible Notes") in a private offering to an institutional investor on August 8, 2025.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Convertible Note offering to purchase more ETH.聽 The issuance of the Convertible Notes further expands the Company's newly announced ETH treasury strategy.聽 The Company plans to provide investors with regular updates in the near term on its Ethereum holdings to ensure maximum transparency.

McAndrew Rudisill, Executive Chairman commented, "The Convertible Note offering further strengthens our balance sheet and will be used to increase our ETH holdings."

Prior to the six month anniversary of the issuance date, the Convertible Notes will not accrue interest. From and after the six month anniversary, the Convertible Notes will accrue at an interest rate of four percent (4%) per annum, as may be adjusted from time to time. The Convertible Notes will mature on the third anniversary of the issuance date, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms. From and after the issuance date, the Convertible Notes will be convertible into shares of common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $3.445 per share, which is subject to a one-time, downward only reset after the nine-month anniversary of the issuance date equal to the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the nine-month anniversary to the extent such price is less than the Conversion Price. Commencing on the 6-month anniversary of the issuance date, the Company may require the holder to convert the Notes , subject to certain restrictions.

A combination of the proceeds from the previously announced PIPE offering and Convertible Notes were used to acquire more ETH, acquire certain yield bearing assets per the terms of the Convertible Notes, and to continue its current iGaming operations, as well as continuing to seek to monetize its legacy biotechnology intellectual property.
