KELOWNA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 1, 2024 / Tryp Therapeutics, Inc. ("Tryp" or the "Company") (CSE:TRYP, OTCQB: TRYPF) and Exopharm Limited ACN 163 765 991 ("Exopharm") are pleased to announce that completion of the previously announced plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") effective today, whereby Exopharm acquired Tryp in an all stock transaction by way of court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of a definitive arrangement agreement entered into by Tryp and Exopharm on December 8, 2023, as amended, all holders of outstanding common shares ("Tryp Shares") of Tryp are entitled to receive 3.616 ordinary shares in the capital of Exopharm (the "Exopharm Shares") for each Tryp Share held immediately prior to the effective time of the Arrangement.

All registered shareholders of the Company must complete, sign, date and return the letter of transmittal, which has been previously mailed and is available under the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca, with accompanying Tryp Share certificate(s) or DRS advice-statement(s) (if applicable) to Computershare Investor Services Inc. as soon as possible, if they have not already done so. Non-registered shareholders of the Company should contact their broker or other intermediary for instructions and assistance in receiving the consideration in respect of their Tryp Shares.

With the completion of the Arrangement, the Tryp Shares are expected to be de-listed from the Canadian Securities Exchange and to cease trading on the OTCQB Venture Market on the close of markets on or around May 1, 2024. The Company also anticipates applying to cease to be a reporting issuer under applicable Canadian securities laws.

About Tryp

Tryp Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing proprietary, novel formulations for the administration of psilocin in combination with psychotherapy to treat diseases with unmet medical needs. Tryp's lead program, TRP-8803, is a proprietary formulation of IV-infused psilocin (the active metabolite of psilocybin) that alleviates numerous shortcomings of oral psilocybin including: significantly reducing the time to onset of the psychedelic state, controlling the depth and duration of the psychedelic experience, and reducing the overall duration of the intervention to a commercially feasible timeframe. The Company has completed a Phase 2a clinical trial for the treatment of binge eating disorder at the University of Florida, which demonstrated an average reduction in binge eating episodes of greater than 80%. The Company also recently announced commencement of patient dosing in a Phase 2a clinical trial for the treatment of fibromyalgia in collaboration with the University of Michigan and is preparing to initiate a Phase 2a clinical trial in collaboration with Massachusetts General Hospital for the treatment of abdominal pain and visceral tenderness in patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome. Each of the studies is utilizing TRP-8802 (synthetic, oral psilocybin) to demonstrate clinical benefit in these indications. Where a positive clinical response is demonstrated, subsequent studies are expected to utilize TRP-8803 (IV-infused psilocin), which has the potential to further improve efficacy, safety, and patient experience.
