Corazon Gold Signs LOI to Acquire 100% of NanoSphere Health Sciences and Innovative Cannabinoid Delivery System

05.01.2017  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, Jan 5, 2017 - Corazon Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CGW) ("Corazon" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a Letter of Intent dated December 22, 2016, with NanoSphere Health Sciences LLC ("NanoSphere") to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of NanoSphere.

NanoSphere is a biotechnology company that has developed a multiple patent-pending, non-invasive delivery system for bioactive compounds such as cannabinoids, pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter drugs, nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals and other related health products. Using advanced nanobiotechnology, NanoSphere's NanoGel encapsulates and protects bioactive compounds, such as cannabinoids, in nano-sized protective all-natural membranes called "NanoSpheres" and delivers them into the body with improved efficiency. The decreased size and increased surface area of the NanoSpheres provides greater solubility and bioavailability, resulting in increased efficacy, faster onset of activity, decreased adverse reactions, and more controllable dosages than traditional delivery systems.

Within NanoSphere's cannabis division, the NanoSphere Delivery System™ pioneers standardized precision-metered dosages by intra-oral, intra-nasal and transdermal administration. The NanoSphere Delivery System™ addresses many issues in the traditional delivery of cannabis products by inhalation and ingestion, such as:

Low bioavailability when administered orally – on average only 6% of orally ingested cannabinoids (THC & CBD) reach systemic circulation, resulting in poor therapeutic value.
Smoking and vaporization have no reliable dosages as medicine.
Inefficient delivery and binding of cannabinoids to CB1 and CB2 receptors in cell membranes, resulting in poor therapeutic value.
Significant delays in the onset of effects from ingesting edibles - 45 minutes to 2 hours.
Rapid onset and decline of activity from smoking and vaping cannabis.
Lack of standardized dosing ability in smoking, vaping or ingesting cannabis.
Accidental over-administration of edibles ("stacking").
Irritation and potential damage to respiratory system from smoking and vaping.
Safety and efficacy issues.

Recent pharmacokinetic testing (clinical blood studies) confirmed the quick entrance of THC into the bloodstream, within ten minutes, compared to an hour or more with standard ingested THC. The testing also demonstrated higher blood concentrations, greater bioavailability and longer circulation half-life within the human body compared to ingested THC and oral mucosal sprays. NanoSphere's technology creates an entirely new product category and user-friendly delivery system within the cannabis industry with the potential to greatly expand the patient and adult use markets.

The LOI contemplates a three-way amalgamation, pursuant to which Nanosphere will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corazon and the shareholders of Nanosphere will receive 40,000,000 Corazon common shares on closing and up to a further 19,000,000 Corazon common shares based upon the satisfaction of performance targets to be agreed upon. In connection with the transaction, Corazon will also complete a financing (the "Financing") to raise gross proceeds of up to $9,000,000 and not less than $7,000,000, the terms of which have not yet been finalized. Finder's fees may be payable on the acquisition and Financing, subject to compliance with Exchange policies and receipt of Exchange approval.

Upon completion of the transaction, the Board of Directors will be reconstituted with four nominees of Nanosphere and two nominees of Corazon, with additional officer appointments to be determined and agreed upon prior to closing. Further details regarding the Financing and the new Board of Directors and management following the completion of the transaction will be issued as details become available.

The transaction is at arm's length and is not expected to be subject to shareholder approval upon a determination that the transaction is not a Related Party Transaction (as defined by the Exchange); the Exchange's confirmation that, in the Exchange's view, Corazon is without active operations; Corazon not being subject to a cease trade order and not otherwise being suspended from trading on completion of the transaction; and shareholder approval for any aspect of the transaction not otherwise being required under applicable corporate or securities laws.

Completion of the transaction is subject to a number of conditions precedent, including but not limited to completion of satisfactory due diligence, the execution of a definitive agreement in respect of the transaction, completion of the Financing and the receipt of Exchange approval and all other required regulatory and third party consents and approvals.

Mr. Victor Goncalves comments, "we are very excited to go into 2017 working on such a game changing part of the cannabis industry. We feel that with the talented team of people that come with NanoSphere, and the technology they have developed, we will be industry leaders in this space."
