ASX RELEASE 8 October 2026
Further Obsidian Note Redemption
and Phase 3 Data Review Update
Paradigm Biopharmaceuticals Limited (Administrators Appointed) (ASX: PAR)
(“Paradigm” or “the Company”) advises that, following discussions with Obsidian Global
GP, LLC (“Obsidian”), the parties have agreed to the redemption and cancellation of a
further 1,171,477 convertible notes for a cash payment of US$1,404,600 (approximately
A$2 million).
The notes were redeemed and cancelled upon completion of the payment. Following the
redemption and cancellation, 3,125,708 convertible notes remain outstanding.
The redemption is pursuant to the Convertible Securities Agreement and Share Placement
Agreement dated on or about 1 July 2025 and the Deed of Variation dated on or about 29
April 2026 (together, the “CSA”), which has granted a general security agreement over the
Company’s assets.
Phase 3 data review
As previously reported, the initial review of the Phase 3 PARA_OA_012 clinical data by the
unblinded Paradigm staff highlights there is missing data at important time-points, which is
a key factor in the interim results. The missing data is more frequent at the US sites. Initial
observations in the rest-of-world dataset, comprising Australia, Moldova and Hong Kong,
appear encouraging. These observations remain preliminary and do not establish efficacy.
Independent analysis commissioned by Paradigm but not yet received at the date of this
announcement, may reach different conclusions.
These internal observations do not change the previously announced decision that the
Phase 3 trial will not proceed.
The Company expects to provide a further update on the data in the coming weeks, subject
to completion of the independent statistical analysis and review of its findings.
The Company’s securities remain suspended from trading.
