The Grantee is a consultant (the “Consultant”), namely Leverage IQ Iberica SL, of which
Mr. Lars Gehrmann is a director as well as the only and ultimate shareholder, providing
consultancy services to Deep Longevity, Inc (“DLI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Group.
The grant of Option was due to services rendered pursuant to the terms of the consulting
agreement. The Consultant was engaged primarily to adapt the Group’s Young.AI App to
become an engaging tool that converts users to fee paying customers; and thereby enable
Young.AI to reach maximal exposure, by identifying potential improvements based on target
customers, conducting competitor research and providing written suggestions as to how best
to market the Young.AI App within the App itself, the App landing page and also in the App
Store. In addition, the Consultant was engaged to assess and evaluate how the Group’s aging
clocks could be partnered with insurance companies and define a roadmap and identify which
insurance companies should be approached, among other services. As disclosed in the Company’s announcement dated 2 September 2020 and circular dated 18 November 2020, upon acquiring DLI on 14 December 2020,
the Group acquired its developing explainable and user-friendly AI systems to track the rate of aging at
the molecular, cellular, tissue, organ, system, physiological and psychological levels. It is also developing
systems for the emerging field of longevity medicine enabling physicians to make better
decisions on the interventions that may slow down or reverse the aging processes. As
disclosed, DLI has developed Young.AI, a system for tracking predicted age at multiple levels
over time, with the first version of the Young.AI website and its Young.AI mobile App, an
application for App Store by Apple Inc., being launched on 29 September 2020. As further
disclosed in the aforesaid circular, like any other App providers, DLI planned to roll out future
versions as it improves its products. The Consultant was engaged as part of seeking to improve
the performance of Young.AI and such services were in line with past disclosures made and
the Group’s business scope.
The Board is pleased to announce that the Offer in respect of the Option to subscribe for
2,500,000 Shares has been duly accepted by the Grantee and that the Option should, following
the acceptance, be deemed to have been granted and to have taken effect on the Offer Date
