OPSONIC HAS BEEN FINANCED THROUGH A CONVERTIBLE LOAN

During 2009 ChronTech out licensed an exclusive right to the RAS® technology to the American company, Opsonic Therapeutics, and in return received 20% of outstanding Opsonic stock.

Opsonic Therapeutics has received a convertible loan for USD 750,000 from an American private investor, with a possibility to increase the loan up to two million USD on the same terms. The loan will bear interest at the rate of 5 % and with a three year maturity.

The loan will be converted into shares on the same terms as those on the next larger financing of Opsonic.
