Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May10, 2017, Oragenics, Inc. (the Company) entered into a
securities purchase agreement with three accredited investors, to
purchase up to $3.0million of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock (the Preferred Stock Financing). Concurrently with the
Preferred Stock Financing, the Company also entered into a Note
Purchase Agreement with Intrexon Corporation (Intrexon) to which
the Company issued a $2.4million unsecured non-convertible
promissory note to Intrexon (the Intrexon Note) and amended the
first milestone in its oral mucositis Exclusive Channel
Collaboration Agreement (ECC) with Intrexon (collectively with
the Preferred Stock Financing the Transactions). The Securities
Purchase Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement include
customary representations, warranties and covenants. A copy of
the Securities Purchase Agreement, Note Purchase Agreement and
Intrexon Note are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, Exhibit 10.3
and Exhibit 4.2 respectively and are incorporated by reference
herein.

The Preferred Stock Private Placement

The sale of the Preferred Stock will take place in two separate
closings and at the first closing which occurred on May10, 2017,
the Company received gross proceeds of approximately
$1.302million. Upon the successful completion of the second
closing the Company would receive $1.698million, the balance of
the Preferred Stock Financing. The full $3.0million of Preferred
Stock will be convertible into twelve million shares of the
Companys Common Stock, based on a fixed conversion price of $0.25
per share on an as-converted basis. In addition, the Company
issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,621,037 shares of
Common Stock at the first closing and will be obligated to issue
additional warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,024,124 shares
of Common Stock at the second closing.The Warrants have a term of
seven years from the date of issuance are non-exercisable until 6
months after issuance, and have an exercise price of $0.31 per
share. A copy of the form of Common Stock Purchase Warrant is
attached hereto as Exhibit 10.3 and is incorporated by reference
herein.

The second closing is contingent upon the Company receiving
shareholder approval required by the NYSE MKT listing rules. The
Company has entered into voting agreements with the Koski Family
Limited Partnership and Intrexon Corporation, holders of a
majority of our common stock, to which they have agreed to vote
all of their shares of common stock for approval. Proceeds from
the Preferred Stock Financing (including the exercise of any
warrants for cash) will be used for general corporate purposes,
including working capital.

In connection with the issuance and sale of the Preferred Stock
and Warrants, the Company granted certain demand registration
rights and piggyback registration rights with respect to the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred
Stock and exercise of the Warrants, to a Registration Rights
Agreement.

A copy of the forms of Voting Agreement and Registration Rights
Agreement are attached hereto as Exhibits 9.1 and 4.1,
respectively and are incorporated by reference herein.
