Drawdown of tranche one of strategic financing facility
27 February 2026 – Melbourne Australia: Neurizon® Therapeutics Limited (ASX: NUZ & NUZOA; OTCQB: NUZTF)
("Neurizon" or "the Company"), a clinical-stage biotech company dedicated to advancing innovative treatments for
neurodegenerative diseases, advises it has completed the first tranche drawdown of its previously announced $20m
strategic convertible note facility with Obsidian Global GP, LLC (”Obsidian”) (refer ASX announcement: 23 December
2025).
The initial drawdown totals $5m and will be used to fund the Company's participation in the HEALEY ALS Platform
Trial - an adaptive Phase 2/3 registrational study evaluating NUZ-001, for the treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral
Sclerosis (“ALS”), the most common form of motor neurone disease (“MND”).
The drawdown coincides with a major clinical milestone, with first patient dosing (refer to ASX announcement: 26
February 2026). This milestone represents a significant advancement in the clinical development of NUZ-001 and
transitions the Company into an active dosing and data generation phase.
Following this initial drawdown, $15 million remains available to Neurizon, providing funding flexibility. The Company
will continue to deploy capital in a disciplined and milestone-driven manner as it advances clinical execution,
manufacturing readiness, and broader corporate initiatives. Further operational updates will be provided as
milestones are achieved.
