("Tevogen" or "Tevogen Bio") (NASDAQ:TVGN), a clinical-stage specialty immunotherapy biotech pioneer developing off-the-shelf, genetically unmodified T cell therapeutics in oncology, neurology, and virology, following the recent elimination of $94.9 million in balance sheet liabilities, has entered into a definitive agreement for up to $50 million in financing. This formalizes the binding term sheet previously announced May 10, 2024. Combined with this financing, Tevogen's efficient and innovative business model is expected to support research and development, particularly focusing on TVGN 489 the company's initial product from its ExacTcell™ technology platform, and to strengthen its IP portfolio, which currently includes 3 granted US patents, 9 pending US patent applications, and 12 ex-US patent applications.

The private placement can also include any remaining available and undrawn amount of the line of credit.
