Watch for FOXO's Nasdaq listing application outcome and completion of its public offering, which are the primary gating conditions for closing. The 120-day termination deadline (February 22, 2027) creates a timeline catalyst. Monitor for any board or management changes at Ludwig, as FOXO has indicated potential appointments. The voting proxies give FOXO immediate control, so any material corporate actions at Ludwig could occur before closing.

Key Financial Metrics
Key Facts
- FOXO Technologies Inc. agreed to acquire 5,000,000 shares of Ludwig Convertible Preferred Stock (71.4% of the 7,000,000 outstanding preferred shares) from The Thomas E. Terwilliger Revocable Trust (3,000,000 shares) and Vasaio Capital, Inc. (2,000,000 shares).
- Consideration for the preferred shares is 2,250,000 shares of FOXO Series F Convertible Preferred Stock with a stated value of $2.25 million.
- FOXO also agreed to purchase approximately $1 million of Ludwig promissory notes from Thomas E. Terwilliger for $500,000 cash (payable $250,000 at closing and $250,000 within 90 days) plus 500,000 FOXO Series F Preferred shares.
- Closing is contingent on FOXO's common stock being approved for listing on Nasdaq, FOXO completing a satisfactory financing, satisfactory due diligence, and simultaneous closing of both stock purchase agreements.
- FOXO has obtained irrevocable proxies granting it immediate voting control of the 5,000,000 preferred shares (500,000,000 votes, approximately 57.7% of combined voting power) pending closing or termination.
- If the transactions close, FOXO would hold approximately 74.9% of Ludwig's common stock on a diluted basis (500,000,000 shares issuable upon conversion of preferred shares).
- Ludwig's interim CEO and a director have offered to resign; FOXO anticipates Mark White, a FOXO director, may be invited to serve as director and interim CEO of Ludwig, but no appointment has been made.
- Ludwig ceased to be a fully reporting SEC company as of August 19, 2026, and is an early-stage genomic diagnostics company with no approved or cleared products.
- The purchase agreements can be terminated if Nasdaq listing and public offering are not completed within 120 days of signing (by February 22, 2027).
Financial Impact
FOXO to issue Series F Preferred shares with stated value of $2.25 million for Ludwig preferred stock, plus $500,000 cash and 500,000 Series F Preferred shares (stated value $500,000) for Ludwig notes. No cash consideration for preferred shares; cash for notes to be funded from FOXO's anticipated Nasdaq listing and capital raise, which has not been completed.
Risk Factors
- Transaction may not close if FOXO fails to achieve Nasdaq listing or complete financing within 120 days.
- Ludwig is a pre-revenue early-stage company with no FDA-cleared products and has ceased SEC reporting, creating significant business and disclosure risk.
- FOXO's Series F Preferred shares have a floating conversion price tied to future public offering prices, creating potential for significant dilution to FOXO shareholders.
- The voting proxies expire automatically after 120 days if closing does not occur, potentially leaving FOXO without control.
- Ludwig's capitalization and debt structure may contain undisclosed obligations that could affect the transaction.
