Antibe Therapeutics Announces $5 Million Bought Deal OfferingAntibe Therapeutics Inc. ("Antibe" or the "Company") (TSXV: ATE, OTCQB: ATBPF), a leader in developing safer therapeutics for pain and inflammation, today announced that it has entered into an agreement with Bloom Burton Securities Inc., on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters including Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. and Dominick Capital Corporation (collectively, the "Underwriters"), pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to purchase, on a bought deal basis, 20,000,000 units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of $0.25 per Unit (the "Offering Price"), for aggregate gross proceeds of $5,000,000 (the "Offering"). Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each full warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.35 for a period 36 months. "This strategic financing will allow us to fund additional development activities for ATB-346 that set the stage for Phase 3 development and fulfill key requirements for regulatory progression and approval," commented Dan Legault, CEO of Antibe. "This should strengthen our position as we advance global partnering discussions later this year in an effort to fully monetize ATB-346 for shareholders." The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund research and development activities, including but not limited to, ATB-346's clinical development, regulatory consulting fees, working capital needs and other general corporate purposes. The Company has granted the Underwriters an over-allotment option (the "Over-Allotment Option"), at the Underwriters' sole discretion, to purchase up to 3,000,000 Units at the Offering Price, exercisable in whole or in part up to 30 days following closing of the Offering. The Units will be offered by way of a short form prospectus to be filed in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario. The Units may be sold in such other jurisdictions as the Company and the Underwriters may agree. Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about February 26, 2019, subject to customary closing conditions, including, without limitation, receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
