Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On December 1, 2015, Oragenics, Inc. (the “Company”) issued its Notice of Conversion to Intrexon Corporation (“Intrexon”) indicating 3,381,004 shares of Company common stock has been issued to Intrexon effective December 1, 2015 in connection with the conversion of the Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”) and in satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under the Note.

The Note was previously issued by the Company to Intrexon on June 9, 2015 as payment of the technology access fee under the Exclusive Channel Collaboration Agreement entered into with respect to the Company’s research, development and commercialization of products, including the continued development and commercialization of AG013, for use in the treatment of oral mucositis in humans and/or the administration to humans of a trefoil factor via genetically modified bacteria (including L. lactis) for the treatment of diseases and conditions of the oral cavity, throat, and esophagus, but, in any case, excluding the delivery of anti-cancer effectors for the purpose of treatment or prophylaxis of cancer. The Note was payable to Intrexon, at the Company’s option, in cash or shares of Company common stock prior to the maturity date of December 31, 2015 and the conversion price was equal to the closing price on the NYSE MKT of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day immediately prior to the date of conversion which was $1.50 per share.

The Company is relying on the exemption from federal registration under Section 4(2) and Regulation D (Rule 506) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and corresponding provisions of state securities laws based on the Company’s belief that, among other things, the issuance of the shares of Company common stock to Intrexon upon conversion of the Note did not involve a public offering, Intrexon is an “accredited investor” as defined under the Securities Act and no general solicitation was involved.
