Knight Partner FOCUSed on Growth

MONTREAL, CANADA--(Marketwired - Nov. 16, 2015) - Knight Therapeutics Inc. (TSX:GUD), through one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("Knight"), announced today that it has agreed to extend an additional secured loan of US$5.5 million to Synergy CHC Corp. (OTCQB:SNYR) ("Synergy"). The secured loan will support Synergy's acquisition of Flat Tummy Tea and UrgentRx^™, two established brands that nicely complement Synergy's growing portfolio of best-in-class consumer health products.

In January of this year, Knight provided a secured loan of US$6.0 million to Synergy to support its acquisition of the FOCUSfactor^™ brand, America's #1 brain health supplement. In June of this year, Synergy purchased the U.S. rights to Neuragen^™ from Knight Therapeutics Inc.

This new secured loan of US$5.5 million bears interest at 15% per annum plus other additional consideration. The interest rate will decrease to 13% if Synergy meets certain equity-fundraising targets. The loan matures on November 11, 2017. As part of the transaction, Knight has been issued 5,550,625 common shares in the capital of Synergy representing approximately 6.5% of Synergy's fully diluted capital. Knight also received a 10-year warrant entitling Knight to purchase up to 4,547,243 shares of Synergy at US$0.49 per share. In addition, Knight obtained the exclusive sales rights to Flat Tummy Tea and UrgentRx^™ in Canada, Israel, Romania, Russia and Sub-Saharan Africa.

"We are thrilled to announce the strengthening of our partnership with Knight and the addition of two unique offerings to our diversified portfolio of proven consumer health products," said Jack Ross, President and CEO of Synergy.
