Quantum Biopharma Provides Corporate Update

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / September 27, 2024 / Quantum BioPharma Ltd. (formerly, FSD Pharma Inc.) (NASDAQ:QNTM)(CSE:QNTM)(FRA:0K91) ("Quantum BioPharma" or the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to building a portfolio of innovative assets and biotech solutions, is pleased to announce the following corporate updates.

Option Grant

The Company announces the grant of 29,500 stock options (the "Stock Options") to certain directors, officers, employees, and consultants. Each option granted vests immediately and is exercisable at a price of CA$5.25 for a period of two years from the issue date. The Stock Options and the common shares underlying the Stock Options are subject to a statutory four month and one day hold period. All Stock Options were granted in accordance with the Company's stock option plan re-approved by shareholders at the Company's annual general and special meeting held on May 19, 2023.

A director of the Company received 7,500 Stock Options and thus the foregoing as it applies to such party represents a related-party transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"), however the transaction is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the subject matter of the transaction, nor the consideration, exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
