Roadzen CEO and Chairman Agree to Exchange $3.5 Million of Short-Term Debt for Equity in the Company

(“Roadzen”  or the “Company”), a global leader in AI at the convergence of insurance and mobility, today  announced that the Company’s Special Committee of Independent Directors has unanimously  approved a plan for certain related parties to release $3.5 million of short-term debt in exchange  for ordinary shares of RDZN. The related parties that have executed binding term sheets and 

agreed to the exchange include Roadzen’s CEO, Rohan Malhotra, and Pi Capital International Inc.  and its affiliate Marco Polo Securities, Inc., which is principally owned by Roadzen’s Chairman  of the Board.  

The number of shares into which the accrued liabilities will be exchanged for common stock will  be based on the amount of debt released divided by a share price equal to the greater of $2.80 per  share or the 30-trading day volume weighted average price beginning 3 days following the date on  which the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission, its Form 10-Q for the  first quarter ended June 30, 2024. 

“I am confident that Roadzen’s AI platform is well positioned to achieve substantial commercial  success as its technology has already begun to be adopted by participants in the large, recession resistant, global auto insurance industry. We believe that the integration of computer vision with  telematics powered by proprietary AI algorithms should accelerate the transformation of motor  vehicles into mobile, intelligent operating systems, in both new and existing vehicles,” commented  Steven Carlson, Chairman of the Board at Roadzen.  

Rohan Malhotra, founder and CEO of Roadzen, commented, “I am pleased to do this exchange to  further back Roadzen’s long-term vision and potential. This action helps simplify the Company’s  balance sheet and positions the Company to better execute its mission of transforming the auto  insurance industry with AI.”
