NeuroVive announces the intention to raise additional capital through a private placement


NeuroVive Pharmaceutical AB (publ) (”NeuroVive” or the “Company”, OMX:NVP) today
announces that the Company intends to raise new equity through a private
placement directed towards qualified institutional investors. The Company
intends to effect the private placement at a share volume and a price per share
to be determined through an accelerated bookbuilding process. The Board of
Directors will disapply the preferential subscription rights of existing
shareholders in connection with the intended capital increase, which will take
place within the limits of the authorization from the Annual General Meeting on
March 30, 2015.The bookbuilding process will end before the commencement of
trading on Nasdaq Stockholm on May 8, 2015.
The proceeds from the private placement will primarily be used for the
preparation of CicloMulsion®’s clinical trial in the US and commercialization in
Europe. A minor share of the proceeds will be allocated to the pre-clinical
program for NVP019 and preparing for the first human dose.

The reasons for the deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights are that
the Board of the Company deems it beneficial for the Company and the
shareholders to expand the Company´s institutional and international shareholder
base but also to capitalize on the opportunity to raise new capital on for the
Company favorable terms.

The Company will announce the results of the placing as soon as possible after
closing of the bookbuilding.
