Zenith has completed the issuance of 1,333,334 common shares to the Subscriber for gross proceeds of US$2 million and the subscription for the remaining 2,000,000 common shares for additional gross proceeds of US$3 million is conditional upon customary closing conditions and certain amendments to the previously announced license agreement between Zenith’s subsidiary, Zenith Epigenetics Ltd., and Newsoara Biopharma Co., Ltd., including the waiver of a potential future clinical development milestone payment and the assignment of patents in the territories to Newsoara Biopharma Co., Ltd. that are the subject of the license agreement, with Zenith retaining a right to re-acquire the patents for no additional consideration.

Pursuant to the Private Placement, in the event that Zenith completes an equity financing within fifteen months of June 9, 2020 and the price per share is lower than US$1.50, the price paid by the Subscriber will be adjusted to the lower price per share and the Subscriber will, accordingly, receive additional common shares for no additional consideration.
