TORONTO, May 26, 2020 /CNW/ — Mind Medicine (MindMed) Inc. (NEO: MMED, OTCQB: MMEDF) (“MindMed” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced bought deal short form prospectus offering, including the exercise in full of the underwriter’s over-allotment option (the “Offering”). In connection with the Offering, the Company issued 24,953,850 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price per Unit of $0.53 CAD (the “Issue Price”) for gross proceeds of $13,225,540.50. Eight Capital acted as sole bookrunner and underwriter in the Offering.

Each Unit comprises one subordinate voting share of the Company (a “Subordinate Voting Share”) and one-half of one Subordinate Voting Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Subordinate Voting Share at an exercise price of $0.79 until May 26, 2022. If, prior to the expiry of the Warrants, the daily volume weighted average price of the Subordinate Voting Shares on the facilities of the Neo Exchange Inc. is equal to or greater than $1.13 for any 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may, upon providing written notice to the holders of Warrants, accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to the date that is 30 days following the date of such written notice. The Warrants will be listed for trading on the facilities of the NEO Exchange under the symbol “MMED.WT”, subject to the final approval of the NEO Exchange.

The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds of the Offering to fund its collaboration with University Hospital Basel’s Liechti Lab and the remainder for general corporate purposes. With this new funding, MindMed plans to expand research & development programs and clinical trials underway at Liechti Lab to create next-generation psychedelic inspired medicines and therapies.

MindMed Director & Co-CEO, JR Rahn, said “With this financing, we aim to greatly expand MindMed’s portfolio researching next-gen psychedelic inspired medicines in collaboration with the University Hospital Basel’s Liechti Lab. We are already extremely encouraged by the potential of novel research & development being generated by Dr. Liechti and his team.”
