Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Framework Agreement

On August 7, 2023, Senti Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a framework agreement (the “Agreement”) with GeneFab, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GeneFab”), and Valere Bio, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the parent company of GeneFab (“Valere”), which is wholly owned by a company managed by Celadon Partners, LLC, pursuant to which the Company, subject to the terms and conditions therein, (i) sold, assigned and transferred its rights, title and interest in certain of the assets and contractual rights to GeneFab, including all of Company’s equipment and leasehold improvements at the Company’s facilities in Alameda, California (the “Alameda Facility”) and certain of the Company's intellectual property related to the schematics for and design of the Alameda Facility, and (ii) subleased to GeneFab its premises under the lease for the Alameda Facility (a portion of which is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions) (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”). In addition, the Company agreed to grant a license to GeneFab under certain of its intellectual property rights to conduct manufacturing services and to research, develop, manufacture and commercialize products outside of oncology, pursuant to a license agreement under negotiation (the “License Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Agreement, Company sold the Purchased Assets, and consummated, or will consummate, the other transactions contemplated thereby, for total consideration of $37.8 million in cash (of which the amounts payable at closing of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement shall be subject to certain offsets against the advance payment under the DMSA (as defined below)) (the “Cash Consideration”) and the grant of the Seller Economic Share (as defined below) by Valere. Fifty percent of the Cash Consideration was paid at closing and the remainder will become due and payable (subject to satisfaction of certain conditions) by GeneFab on or before December 31, 2024 (the “Deferred Consideration”), unless the Company elects to receive up to two early payments of a portion of the Deferred Consideration prior to December 31, 2024, in which case the remaining portion of the unpaid Deferred Consideration will become due and payable on December 31, 2025. In connection with the purchase of the assets and rights related to the Alameda Facility, GeneFab also intends to extend offers of employment to approximately 46 of the Company's employees currently employed in its research and development, manufacturing, and quality functions. The Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, GeneFab and Valere that are customary for a transaction of this nature.

Seller Economic Share Agreement

In connection with the Agreement, the Company, GeneFab and Valere entered into a seller economic share agreement (the “SESA”), pursuant to which the Company will be entitled to receive ten percent of the realized gains of Valere arising and resulting from any cash or in-kind distributions from GeneFab in connection with the dividend or sale event, subject to the terms and conditions of the SESA.

Development and Manufacturing Services Agreement

In connection with the Agreement, the Company and GeneFab entered into a development and manufacturing services agreement (the “DMSA”), pursuant to which GeneFab will provide to the Company certain research, development, and manufacturing services. Subject to GeneFab’s meeting of certain criteria, the Company and its licensees will be obligated to engage GeneFab for certain services. The Company made an advance payment to GeneFab of $18.9 million for such services and received a credit of $8 million from GeneFab to be applied to a portion of the future invoices for such services. Each party may terminate the DMSA for the other party’s uncured material breach of the DMSA, or for insolvency events or for certain technical events. In addition, the Company may terminate the DMSA if GeneFab fails to pay any Deferred Consideration.

Option Agreement

In connection with the Agreement, the Company and GeneFab also entered into a letter agreement (the “Option Agreement”), pursuant to which GeneFab has the right to invest up to approximately $20 million to purchase up to 19,633,444 shares of the common stock of the Company, subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders to the extent required pursuant to applicable Nasdaq rules, at a price of $1.01867 per share in private placements in up to ten installments (the “Option”). Pursuant to the Option Agreement and applicable Nasdaq rules, in no event may the Company issue shares of common stock under the Option Agreement equal to more than 19.99% of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the Option Agreement (the “Exchange Cap”) unless the Company obtains stockholder approval to issue shares of common stock in excess of the Exchange Cap in accordance with applicable Nasdaq rules. The Option is exercisable for a period of 36 months following the execution of the License Agreement. Pursuant to the Option Agreement, the Company also agreed to register all the shares of common stock purchased by GeneFab under the Option Agreement for resale by filing up to four registration statements, subject to certain conditions



and restrictions contained in the Option Agreement. The Company will have the right to immediately terminate the Option Agreement at any time if GeneFab fails to pay any Deferred Consideration.

The foregoing descriptions of the Agreement, the SESA, the DMSA and the Option Agreement do not purport to be complete and are each qualified in their entirety by the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the SESA, the DMSA and the Option Agreement, respectively, copies of which will be filed as exhibits to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2023.
