The Company intends to use the proceeds towards the
commercialization and launch of ZUNVEYLTM in Alzheimer’s Disease,
further research and development of its pipeline product
candidates, continued commercial CMC activities (chemistry,
manufacturing, and controls), and for working capital and general
corporate purposes.
“This offering serves as a tremendous milestone for Alpha
Cognition, as we begin the commercialization of our FDA-approved
drug, ZUNVEYL, for the treatment of mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s
Disease,” said Michael McFadden, Chief Executive Officer and
Director of the Company. "This financing puts our balance sheet in
a position of meaningful strength and provides the necessary
foundation for a successful commercial launch, with ample runway to
scale over the next few years. We are thrilled to welcome a number
of new, high-quality investors to our Nasdaq listing, who also see
the benefits of ZUNVEYL and the exciting opportunity for our

About Alpha Cognition Inc.
Alpha Cognition Inc. is a commercial stage, biopharmaceutical
company dedicated to developing treatments for patients suffering
from neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease and
Cognitive Impairment with mild Traumatic Brain Injury (“mTBI”), for
which there are currently no approved treatment options.
ZUNVEYL is a patented drug approved as a new generation
acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEI) for the treatment of
Alzheimer’s disease, with expected minimal gastrointestinal side
effects. ZUNVEYL’s active metabolite is differentiated from
donepezil and rivastigmine in that it improves the function of
neuronal nicotinic receptors, most notably the alpha-7 subtype,
which is known to have a positive effect on cognition.
Benzgalantamine is also being developed in combination with
memantine to treat moderate to severe Alzheimer’s dementia, and as
an intranasal formulation for Cognitive Impairment with mTBI.
