IGX Intelgenx Technologies Corp

As previously announced on May 17, 2024, IntelGenx Technologies Corp. (the “Company” or “IntelGenx”) (OCTQB: IGXT; TSX: IGX), a leading drug delivery company focused on the development and manufacturing of pharmaceutical films, was granted protection pursuant to an initial order (as amended, the “Initial Order”) issued under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (“CCAA”) by the Québec Superior Court (Commercial Division) (the “Court”). The Initial Order appointed Ernst & Young Inc. as monitor (the “Monitor”) and authorized interim debtor-in-possession financing (DIP) financing provided by atai Life Sciences AG in order to allow the Company to continue its operations during the restructuring process and implement the necessary restructuring measures.

On May 27, 2024, IntelGenx obtained an order from the Court (the “SISP Approval Order”) approving the implementation of a sale and investment solicitation process intended to generate interest in either the business or the assets of IntelGenx, or in a recapitalization of IntelGenx, with the goal of implementing one or more transaction(s) (the “SISP”). The SISP Approval Order provides that the SISP will be conducted by the Monitor.

As part of the SISP Approval Order, the Court also approved the agreement of purchase and sale between IntelGenx, as vendor, and atai Life Sciences AG, as purchaser, solely for the purpose of constituting the “stalking horse” bid under the SISP (the “Stalking Horse Bid”). The Stalking Horse Bid establishes a baseline price and deal structure for the solicitation of superior bids from qualified interested parties and provides certainty that a going-concern solution for the business of IntelGenx has already been identified.

All qualified interested parties will be provided with an opportunity to participate in the SISP. The SISP is intended to solicit interest in and opportunities for a broad range of executable transaction alternatives involving the business and assets of IntelGenx, through one or more sales or partial sales of all, substantially all, or certain portions of the business and assets, and/or an investment in, restructuring, recapitalization, refinancing or other form of reorganization of IntelGenx or its business.

The SISP will be conducted as a two-phase process with the Phase 1 Non-Binding LOI Submission Deadline set for 5:00 p.m. (Montréal Time) on July 15, 2024.

Copies of the order approving the SISP and the SISP procedures may be obtained from the Monitor’s website: www.ey.com/ca/intelgenx.

Further news releases will be provided on an ongoing basis throughout the CCAA proceedings as required by law or otherwise as may be determined necessary by the Company or the Court. Documents relating to the restructuring process such as the Initial Order, the Monitor’s reports to the Court as well as other Court orders and documents shall also be published and made accessible on the Monitor’s website: www.ey.com/ca/intelgenx.
