BIO2 TECHNOLOGIES, INC. CLOSES SERIES C EQUITY FINANCING

Mirus Capital Advisors announced today that it acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Bio2 Technologies, Inc. (Bio2) in securing its Series C equity financing which was led by DSM Venturing. Bio2, a privately held commercial stage orthopedic company, has developed Vitrium®, an advanced biomaterial with structural properties similar to bone. Vitrium is composed of bioactive glass, a resorbable material with well-established osteostimulative properties and a long history of clinical use. Bio2’s proprietary process enables the manufacture of load bearing 100% bioactive glass implants that stimulate new bone formation and are fully replaced as part of the natural bone formation process.

The proceeds of the equity financing will fund a clinical trial for the Company’s first Vitrium spine product, an interbody implant for cervical fusion. In a pre-clinical study performed using an ovine model the Vitrium implant demonstrated superiority to the control (PEEK), achieving a robust fusion at six months with little to no residual implant material remaining. The funds will also be used to accelerate commercialization of Bio2’s 510(k) approved implants for use in extremities surgery.

“We are delighted to be partnering with DSM’s biomedical division,” commented Paul Nichols, President and CEO of Bio2 Technologies. “As a leading developer and supplier of materials technology to the medical device industry, we believe their support and strategic insight will further accelerate the commercialization of the Vitrium platform.”

“We were very pleased to assist in bringing Bio2 and DSM together,” said Patrick West, a Partner at Mirus who leads its med-tech practice. “We feel this is a textbook example of matching a great technology and team with investors that offer not only capital, but meaningful sector expertise.”
