NeuroVive announces Arbutus Biopharma’s notice of termination


Lund, Sweden, July 6, 2016 - NeuroVive Pharmaceutical AB (Nasdaq Stockholm: NVP,
OTCQX: NEVPF), the mitochondrial medicine company, today announces that Arbutus
Biopharma (formerly OnCore Biopharma, Inc.) has given NeuroVive a purported
notice of termination of the license agreement signed in 2014, related to the
development and commercialization of NeuroVive’s compound NVP018 for oral
treatment of HBV.  Arbutus’ notice, which NeuroVive questions on several grounds
and in respect of which NeuroVive has reserved its rights, is a consequence of
Arbutus’s decision to discontinue development of OCB-030 (NVP018), as
communicated in October
2015 (http://publish.ne.cision.com/Release/ViewReleaseHtml/28EB31BA18B12373).
The fate of the license remains under discussion between the parties.
