PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
BIOTIME, INC.
COMMON SHARE PURCHASE WARRANTS
Exercisable at $2.00 per share
We are extending the expiration date of our common share purchase warrants that expire on October 31, 2010. Because October 31 is a Sunday, we are extending the warrant expiration date and time until 5:00 p.m. New York time on Monday, November 1, 2010. Trading of the warrants on the NYSE Amex will continue through October 29, 2010.
We will also permit exercises of the warrants to be accepted by the warrant agent through a notice of guaranteed delivery from a bank, a trust company, or a New York Stock Exchange member guaranteeing delivery of a properly completed and executed warrant certificate. Warrant holders who choose to exercise their warrants through a notice of guaranteed delivery must pay the exercise price of their warrants and deliver the notice of guaranteed delivery to the warrant agent by facsimile telecopy or otherwise not later than 5:00 p.m. New York time on Monday, November 1, 2010. The warrant agent will not honor a notice of guaranteed delivery unless the warrant agent receives payment of the exercise price of the warrants and the notice of guaranteed delivery by 5:00 p.m. New York time on the warrant expiration date, and the warrant agent receives a properly completed and executed warrant certificate by the close of business (5:00 p.m. New York time) on the third business day after the warrant expiration date.
Warrant holders who desire to exercise their warrants should deliver their properly completed warrant certificates and notices of guaranteed delivery to the warrant agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, by hand, mail, express mail, or overnight courier at the following address:
