NOTICE OF PROPOSED DERIVATIVE SETTLEMENT

TO: ALL RECORD HOLDERS AND BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF

RENOVACARE, INC. ("RENOVACARE" OR THE "COMPANY")

COMMON STOCK AS OF FEBRUARY 5, 2025 (THE "RECORD DATE")

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that the above-captioned consolidated derivative action (the "Nevada State Court Action") is being settled on the terms set forth in a Stipulation of Settlement, dated February 5, 2025 (the "Stipulation" or "Settlement").1 Under the terms of the Stipulation, as a part of the proposed Settlement, defendant Rayat shall extinguish any and all debt owed to him by RenovaCare by cancelling any and all debt instruments memorializing the debt. In addition, RenovaCare shall, if and when a Board of Directors is reconstituted, ensure that a majority of the board members (i) do not have a material relationship with the Company; (ii) are not a part of the Company's executive team; and (iii) are not involved in the day-to-day operations of the Company (the "Reform"). The cancellation of the debt and this Reform are designed to address the claims asserted in the Nevada State Court Action and related Derivative Actions2 and enhance RenovaCare's internal controls. RenovaCare and its Board acknowledged and agreed that Plaintiffs' efforts, including their efforts in investigating, preparing, commencing, and prosecuting the Derivative Actions, were a material cause for the cancellation of the debt and the implementation of the Reform, and both confer substantial benefits upon RenovaCare and its shareholders.

The full Board reviewed the derivative settlement parameters, and exercising its business judgment and mindful of its duties to stockholders, approved the Settlement.

IF YOU WERE A RECORD OR BENEFICIAL OWNER OF RENOVACARE COMMON STOCK AS OF FEBRUARY 5, 2025. PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY AS YOUR RIGHTS MAY BE AFFECTED BY PROCEEDINGS IN THE ABOVE REFERENCED LITIGATION.

On April 22, 2025, at 9:30a.m., the Court will hold a hearing (the "Settlement Hearing") in the Nevada State Court Action, either in person, telephonically or via video. The purpose of the Settlement Hearing is to determine (i) whether the Settlement is fair, reasonable and adequate;

(ii) whether a final judgment should be entered and the Nevada State Court Action should be dismissed with prejudice pursuant to the Stipulation; and (iii) whether to approve up to $350,000 in attorneys' fees and expenses for Plaintiffs' Counsel; and (iv) such other matters as may be necessary or proper under the circumstances.

Any Current RenovaCare Shareholder that objects to the Settlement shall have a right to appear and to be heard at the Settlement Hearing, provided that he, she or it was a shareholder of record or beneficial owner as of February 5, 2025. Any Current RenovaCare Shareholder who satisfies this requirement may enter an appearance through counsel of such shareholder's own choosing and at such shareholder's own expense, or may appear on their own. However, no Current RenovaCare Shareholder shall be heard at the Settlement Hearing unless, no later than April 2, 2025, such shareholder has filed with the Court, a written notice of objection containing the following information:

  1. Your name, legal address, and telephone number;
  2. The case name and number (Rigsby v. Rayat, et al., Case No. A-22-850369-C)
  3. Proof of being a Current RenovaCare Shareholder as of the Record Date, February 5, 2025;
  4. The date(s) you acquired your RenovaCare shares;
  5. A statement of each objection being made;
  6. Notice of whether you intend to appear at the Settlement Hearing (you are not required to appear);
  7. Copies of any papers you intend to submit to the Court, along with the names of any witness(es) you intend to call to testify at the Settlement Hearing and the subject(s) of their testimony; and
  8. The identities of any cases, by name, court, and docket number, in which the objector or his, her, or its attorney has objected to a settlement in the last three years.

Only Current RenovaCare Shareholders who have filed and delivered valid and timely written notices of objection will be entitled to be heard at the Settlement Hearing unless the Court orders otherwise. If you wish to object to the proposed Settlement, you must file the written objection described above with the Court on or before April 2, 2025.

Any Current RenovaCare Shareholder as of February 5, 2025 who does not make his, her or its objection in the manner provided herein shall be deemed to have waived such objection and shall be forever foreclosed from making any objection to the fairness, reasonableness or adequacy of the Settlement as incorporated in the Stipulation and/or to the requested attorneys' fees and expenses to Plaintiffs' Counsel, unless otherwise ordered by the Court, but shall otherwise be bound by the Judgment to be entered and the releases to be given.
