Vancouver, Canada, Sept. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearmind Medicine Inc. (NASDAQ:CMND), (FSE: CWY0) ("Clearmind" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotech company focused on discovery and development of novel psychedelic-derived therapeutics to solve major under-treated health problems, today announced that it has entered into securities purchase agreements (the "SPAs") with institutional investors (the "Holders"). Pursuant to the SPAs, the Company may issue and sell, from time to time, convertible promissory notes (the "Notes") in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10,000,000. Upon the execution of the SPAs (the "First Initial Closing"), the Company issued and sold to the Holders initial Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $555,556 for a purchase price of $500,000.

Aegis Capital Corp. acted as financial advisor for the transaction.

Pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in the SPAs, following the effectiveness of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Second Initial Closing"), the Company shall issue and sell additional Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,944,444 for a purchase price of $1,750,000. Commencing three months after the Second Initial Closing, the Company may request, at its sole discretion, that the Holders purchase additional Notes in the aggregate principal amount of up to $2,500,000 per quarter, totaling up to $7,500,000 for a purchase price of $6,750,000. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes, as well as for potential acquisitions to support its exploration of strategic opportunities.

In addition, if at any time after the Second Initial Closing, the daily trading volume of the Company's common shares is at least 150% of the amount of common shares then outstanding, the Company may request that the Holders purchase additional Notes for a purchase price payable in cash equal to 90% of the principal amount, provided that the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased during the period from the Second Initial Closing until three months thereafter shall not exceed $7,500,000, and thereafter shall not exceed $2,500,000 per quarter. The aggregate principal amount of all Notes purchased pursuant to the SPAs shall not exceed the $10,000,000 Subscription Amount.

Each Note will be issued at a purchase price equal to 90% of the principal amount and will accrue interest at an annual rate of 4%, increasing to 14% upon an event of default. Unless repaid earlier or extended by the Holders, each Note is to be repaid in ten equal monthly installments commencing 18 months after its issuance date, with conversion options into Common Shares at a variable price not below $0.20, subject to certain adjustments.
