On March 14, 2022, Cryo-Cell International, Inc.

Briggs Avenue, Durham County, Durham, North Carolina ("Land")

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company's obligation to close the acquisition of the Property is subject to customary closing conditions.

The purchase price for the Property is Eleven Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,200,000). Pursuant to the Agreement, on March 16, 2022, the Company transferred an initial earnest deposit of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000). The Company intends to fund the purchase price with cash on hand, cash flow from operations and with future additional financing.

 

Seller is constructing certain improvements upon the Land, including but not limited to an approximately 56,000 square foot building to be utilized by Cryo-Cell. The consummation of the purchase is subject to the Company's completion of due diligence and various closing conditions to be met by the parties. If the Company does not close on the Property, there are provisions under which the Seller may have to refund the deposit or a portion thereof.

 

The foregoing summary of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
