The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for the securing of global patent rights for its portfolio of novel intellectual property assets, manufacture of products for sale, clinical trails into the Company’s novel patented drug candidates, sales, general corporate and working capital purposes.

The Units will be offered to qualified purchasers in reliance upon exemptions from prospectus and registration requirements of applicable securities legislation.
