Article content
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (“Share”) and one common share purchase warrant (“Warrant”), whereby each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one additional Share at an exercise price of $0.40 for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.

Article content
The gross proceeds from the Offering are intended to be used to drive more organic pipeline growth by (1) pursuing multiple licensing opportunities and research collaborations with DPX where the Company’s platform solutions can address specific needs or gaps, making the Company an attractive ‘go-to’ partner for targeted immunotherapies; (2) identifying remaining GLP supply or production of (non-GMP) preclinical supply of DPX to be used in conducting research, preclinical supply of DPX+peanut antigen for the peanut allergy vaccine program, and additional proof of concept studies for expanding the DPX formulations in mRNA and neoantigens; (3) initiating DPX food allergy program at McMaster University for conducting a preclinical proof of concept study with a DPX peanut antigen prophylaxis vaccine candidate; (4) filing of new patents and maintaining annuity payments for issued patents; and (5) completing remaining immunological data analysis from MVP-S phase 1 studies to complete data packages and prepare this asset for out-licensing in other tumor types. The Company paid an aggregate of $10,856.20 in cash as finder’s fees and issued 63,860 finder’s warrants, each entitling the holder to acquire one Share at a price of $0.40 for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. The finder’s warrants are subject to a statutory hold period expiring March 19, 2026, being the date that is four months and one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable Canadian securities legislation

In accordance with National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (“NI 45-106”), the Units issued under the Offering were offered for sale to purchasers resident in all of the provinces of Canada (except Québec) pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A.2 of NI 45-106 (the “LIFE Exemption”). Because the Offering was completed pursuant to the LIFE Exemption, the Units issued to subscribers in the Offering are not subject to resale restrictions in accordance with applicable Canadian securities legislation.

Article content
James Passin, Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company, participated in the Offering by purchasing 1,484,588 Units for $252,379.96. The participation by Mr. Passin, as an insider of the Company, constitutes a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the Units purchased by Mr. Passin, nor the consideration for the Units paid by Mr. Passin, exceeded 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before the closing of the Offering, which the Company deems reasonable in the circumstances in order to complete the offering in an expeditious manner.
