CSE: IN
OTCQB: IMLFF

VANCOUVER, Jan. 4, 2018 /CNW/ - InMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("InMed" or the "Company") (CSE:IN; OTCQB: IMLFF), a biopharmaceutical company specializing in the research and development of novel, cannabinoid-based drug therapies, has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of C$9.4 Million through the issuance of 13,428,571 units ("Units"), with terms as previously announced on December 18, 2017. The original offering anticipated gross proceeds of C$2.5 Million.  

"The Company welcomes such a positive response from the investment community," stated Eric A. Adams, President & CEO, "We are very pleased to be in a position to close the financing, on an oversubscribed basis, so quickly. With this financing, InMed is well positioned with a strong balance sheet to continue to execute on corporate objectives. We have significantly extended the cash runway for our lead programs, INM-750 for EB and biosynthesis, and will be able to make significant advancements for both INM-085 for glaucoma and INM-405 for pain." The Company also intends to use the net proceeds from the private placement for general working capital and corporate purposes, and to seek a listing of its common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

Finders' fees on a portion of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Units sold pursuant to the financing shall include cash of $397,527 and 446,646 warrants ("Agent Warrants").  Each Agent Warrant shall be exercisable in whole or in part at an exercise price of $1.25 for a period of 18 months expiring on July 3, 2019.

In accordance with applicable securities legislation, securities issued pursuant to the financing are subject to a hold period of four months plus one day from the date of the completion of the financing.
