ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

CELLMID TO REFINANCE R&D LOAN FACILITY

SYDNEY, Wednesday, 1 March 2017: Cellmid Limited (ASX: CDY) is pleased to advise that it has refinanced the R&D Loan Agreement entered into on 24 February 2016. The original

$700,000 loan has been repaid by a new $2,000,000 facility and 4,565,218 shares have been issued at 2.3 cents each to the lenders in lieu of accumulated interest.

The $2,000,000 loan facility has been secured on improved terms, and it is expected to propel Cellmid's midkine ischemia program, through its wholly owned subsidiary Kinera, towards clinical development. It represents the funding required for Kinera to reach IND application stage, a critical value inflection point in this drug development program. Key terms of the loan are as follows:

  • The loan period increased from 12 months to 24 months to better match product development time lines. The funds are expected to cover the costs of research and development up to preparation of IND application for midkine in the treatment of ischemic diseases. The loan will cover the costs of pre-clinical validation in an ischemia related indication, toxicology and regulatory work and means that the program is expected to be funded to this major development milestone.

  • Interest will be accrued at an annual rate of 12% (previously 15%) with the lenders having the right to be issued fully paid ordinary shares in lieu of payment of the accrued interest at 3.5 cents per share (previously 2.3 cents per share) at both 12 and 24 months from commencement. The maximum number of shares that may be issued in lieu of interest payment is 6,857,142 for each twelve-month period.

  • Principal may be converted by the lenders at 5.0 cents per share (3.4 cents per share previously). During the first 12 months the lenders may convert up to 50% of the total loan facility. The maximum number of shares that can be issued during the first 12 months is 20,000,000. The remaining 50% of the loan may be converted to shares at 5.0 cents by the lenders at any time between 12 months from the date of the agreement and the expiry of the 24-month term.

In the event the lenders elect to receive shares (at 5.0 cents per share for the principal loan amount and/or 3.5 cents per share for the interest), the shares so issued will rank equally in all respects with existing ordinary shares and will fall within Cellmid's 15% placement capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. The refinanced loan is secured against the Company's R&D tax credit, which is normally received during the month of November in each calendar year.

The current loan was arranged by Platinum Road, the same adviser engaged to place the $700,000 R&D loan facility in February 2016.

Midkine (MK)

Midkine is a growth factor that is highly expressed during embryonic development. Midkine modulates many important biological interactions such as cell growth, cell migration and cellular adherence. These functions are relevant to cancer, inflammation, autoimmunity, ischemia, nerve growth/repair and wound healing. Midkine is barely detectable in healthy adults and only occurs as a consequence of the pathogenesis of a number of different disorders. Midkine expression is often evident very early in disease onset, even before any apparent physical symptoms. Accordingly, midkine is an important early marker for diagnosing cancers and autoimmune diseases. Finally, midkine is only evident in a disease context, and targeting midkine is not expected to harm normal healthy tissues.

Investment in life sciences companies

There are a number of inherent risks associated with the research, development and commercialisation of pharmaceutical products. Investment in companies specialising in these activities carry specific risks which are different to those associated with trading and manufacturing businesses. As such, these companies should be regarded as highly speculative. Cellmid recommends that investors seek professional advice before making an investment in its shares.
