PART B - SHARE STRUCTURE

Item 4. The Exact Title and Class of Securities Outstanding

Altigen has only one class of outstanding stock:

Title: Common Stock, par value $0.001

CUSIP: 021489109

OTCQB Trading Symbol: ATGN

In addition, Altigen has issued options to purchase shares of its common stock, of which 2,425,114 were still outstanding as of September 30, 2021. No shares of preferred stock are currently outstanding.

Item 5. Par or Stated Value and Description of the Security

Common Stock

The Company's outstanding securities consist solely of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation") authorizes 50,000,000 shares of common stock. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Therefore, holders of more than 50% of the shares of common stock are able to elect all of the Company's directors eligible for election in a given year. The holders of common stock are entitled to dividends if declared by the Company's board of directors (the "Board of Directors"). There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock, and holders of common stock are not entitled to any preemptive rights with respect to additional issuances of common stock by the Company.

- 4 -

Preferred Stock

The Certificate of Incorporation also authorizes 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. The Company may issue these shares of preferred stock without the approval of the holders of common stock. The Board of Directors has the discretion to issue the preferred stock in such series and with such preferences and rights as it may designate, including, among other things, dividend rights, voting rights, conversion rights and liquidation rights as well as redemption or sinking fund provisions.

The purpose of authorizing the Board of Directors to issue preferred stock and determine its rights and preferences is to eliminate delays associated with a shareholder vote on specific issuances. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions, future financings and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or could discourage a third party from seeking to acquire, a majority of the Company's outstanding voting stock. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may adversely affect the holders of the Company's common stock by restricting dividends on the Company's common stock, diluting the voting power of the Company's common stock or subordinating the liquidation rights of the Company's common stock. As a result of these or other factors, the issuance of preferred stock could have an adverse impact on the market price of the Company's common stock.

Provisions in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws That Would Delay, Defer or Prevent a Change of Control

Authorized but Unissued Capital Stock

The authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without shareholder approval, subject to any limitations imposed by the listing standards of the market on which such shares are traded, if any. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate finance transactions, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could make more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Classified Board of Directors

The Certificate of Incorporation and the Company's Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws") include provisions classifying the Board of Directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Accordingly, only one third of the Board of Directors of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders.

Cumulative Voting

Under Delaware law, the right to vote cumulatively does not exist unless the certificate of incorporation specifically authorizes cumulative voting. The Certificate of Incorporation does not authorize cumulative voting. Accordingly, a holder or group of holders of a majority of the shares of the Company's common stock are able to elect all of the directors.

Advance Notice

The Company's Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws") require advance notice relating to certain stockholder business and Board of Director nominees to be considered at stockholder meetings. Under the Bylaws, stockholders are not permitted to call special meetings of stockholders unless they own a majority of the capital stock of the Company.

Shareholder Action by Written Consent

Pursuant to Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of our stock entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, unless a corporation's certificate of incorporation provides
