Immune Therapeutics, Inc. Strengthens Balance Sheet With Debt Settlement

ORLANDO, Fla., April 12, 2017 -- Immune Therapeutics, Inc. (OTCQB:IMUN), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapies for a range of conditions using Lodonal^TM, its proprietary formulation of lower-dose naltrexone, today announced, that it has further strengthened its balance sheet by settling an outstanding long-term debt.  As a result, the Company has settled the majority of its outstanding convertible long-term debt, putting the Company on firm financial ground to move ahead with its business plan.

On April 3, 2017, Immune Therapeutics settled its convertible debt with Marshall Faulk (“the Noteholder”). Immune Therapeutics defaulted when it was unable to repay the remaining note and late-payment penalties at maturity.

Under the settlement agreement, the Noteholder agreed to assign the note to an existing IMUN shareholder in exchange for $150,000 in cash and two million shares of IMUN stock in full settlement (including late fees and other penalties that exceeded $2.0 million at March 31, 2017). The existing shareholder then wrote a note with the Company for $150,000 dollars at 2% interest annually. The terms of this new note are consistent with the note signed by the same major shareholder for the payoff of JMJ in December of 2016.

“Immune Therapeutics is pleased to have this issue behind us. We expect the agreement will mitigate investor concerns over certain variable terms of this previous debt arrangement,” noted Noreen Griffin, CEO of Immune Therapeutics.

“More importantly, we are making significant progress towards receiving final approval to begin commercialization in Africa.  Our recent operating achievements coupled with the ongoing financial support received from our key shareholders, should contribute to a strong second quarter.   With our improved financial footing, we are preparing to file for additional opportunities for Lodonal in Africa for the near future,” added Ms. Griffin.
