NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES



TORONTO, Nov. 30, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MPX Bioceutical Corporation (CSE:MPX) (OTC:MPXEF) (the “Company” or “MPX”) announced today that it has entered into an agreement with Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. (“Echelon”), as co-lead agent on behalf of a syndicate of agents including co-lead agent Canaccord Genuity Corp. (together with Echelon, the “Agents”), in connection with a commercially reasonable efforts private placement offering (the "Offering") of up to 53,191,500 units (the "Units") of the Company, at a price of C$0.47 per Unit (the “Issue Price”), for gross proceeds to the Company of up to approximately C$25,000,000. Chrystal Capital Partner LLP will act as special selling agent in relation to the Offering.

Each Unit will consist of one common share (“Common Share”) in the capital of the Company and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole Common Share purchase warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of C$0.64 for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering. If, at any time after 12 months following the Closing Date, the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) over any 15 consecutive trading day period is at least C$2.00, the Company will have the right to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to a date that is 30 calendar days after the date on which the Company issues a press release announcing the accelerated expiry date.

The Company has agreed to grant the Agents an over-allotment option to offer, at the Issue Price, up to that number of additional Units as is equal to 15% of the number of Units in the Offering, on the same terms and conditions as the Offering, increasing the size of the Offering to a maximum of 61,170,225 Units. The over-allotment option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time up to the closing of the Offering. If this option is exercised in full, an additional C$3,750,000 will be raised pursuant to the Offering and the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering will be approximately C$28,750,000.

The net proceeds received by the Company from the Offering will be used to close on certain acquisitions and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about December 21, 2017, and is subject to the receipt of any necessary regulatory approvals, including, to the extent necessary, the approval of the CSE. All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a statutory four-month hold period.
