The proceeds of this Offering will be primarily used to commercialize the newly acquired Prolieve(R) line of business, for working capital and to continue Medifocus’ pivotal phase III clinical trials using Medifocus Microfocus APA 1000 System for the treatment of breast cancer (including all related professional expenses).

The Company may pay a 7.0% finders’ fee payable of the gross proceeds raised in respect of certain subscribers in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Completion of the Offering is subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued under the offering will be subject to a hold period under applicable securities laws expiring four months and one day following issuance.
