undertaking of a non-brokered Private Placement (the “Offering”)

exclusive access to the proprietary Deep Docking platform for
DNA-damage response targets. Over the next 12 to 16 weeks, Rakovina
Therapeutics aims to screen over five billion potential drug
candidates using this platform. The most promising lead candidates
will be further validated in the Company's laboratories at the
University of British Columbia. Rakovina Therapeutics intends to
advance these validated drug candidates to clinical trials in
collaboration with pharmaceutical partners.
The Units will be sold on a non-brokered “private placement”
basis in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws and
