Together with the 1,000,000 convertible notes redeemed in October 2026, a total of 1,750,000 convertible

2 November 2026 – Melbourne Australia: Neurizon® Therapeutics Limited (ASX: NUZ; OTCQB: NUZTF) (“Neurizon”
or “the Company”), a late clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to advancing innovative treatments for
neurodegenerative diseases, advises that it has issued and settled an early redemption notice to Obsidian to redeem
all 750,000 convertible notes remaining on issue under the Convertible Securities and Security Placement Agreement
between the Company and Obsidian (the “Facility”), for consideration of US$915,750 (~A$1.31 million), funded from
the Company’s existing cash reserves. Following the redemption, no convertible notes remain on issue.
Neurizon entered into the Facility with Obsidian in December 2025, and 3,575,500 convertible notes were issued to
Obsidian on 27 February 2026. The Facility provides an important source of funding flexibility during a period of
significant investment in the Company’s lead clinical program.
In September 2026, the Company redeemed 1,000,000 convertible notes held by Obsidian. With the redemption of
the remaining 750,000 convertible notes announced today, a total of 1,750,000 convertible notes have been
redeemed, almost half of the 3,575,500 convertible notes issued.
The redemption forms part of a broader capital management strategy designed to simplify Neurizon’s capital
structure, strengthen its financial position and preserve funding optionality ahead of the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial
topline readout, expected in late Q2 CY2027. It has been undertaken in conjunction with the placement and share
purchase plan announced separately today.
Chief Executive Officer, Dr Chris Bremer said: “Redeeming the remaining convertible notes is an important step in
simplifying Neurizon’s capital structure. With no convertible notes on issue, and the potential drawdown replaced by
the placement and share purchase plan, our shareholders no longer face the potential dilution from note conversions.
We thank Obsidian for its support during an important stage of our clinical development. We have retained the Facility
as a flexible standby funding option, but we will only consider using it if the Board believes it is in our shareholders’
best interests, with any future drawdown requiring shareholder approval.”
The drawdown previously contemplated under the Facility following the Company’s November 2026 Annual General
Meeting (“AGM”) will not proceed, and the Company has withdrawn resolution 4 (“Approval to issue Convertible
Notes to Obsidian Global GP, LLC (and/or its nominee(s))”) from the AGM.
No further drawdowns will be undertaken under the Facility until at least April 2027, with any subsequent drawdown
requiring shareholder approval. Before seeking such an approval, the Board will consider all funding options available
to it, including potential business development transactions, strategic partnerships and other financing opportunities.
Neurizon remains fully funded through to the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial topline readout, inclusive of one further
drawdown under the Facility, which may not be required depending on the outcome of the share purchase plan and
other funding opportunities.
