By Sheri Kasprzak

New York, Oct. 20 - Chromos Molecular Systems Inc. intends to use the proceeds from a C$2 million bridge loan to seek out additional equity financing.

The notes, funded by Pender NDI Life Sciences (VCC) Inc., Pender Growth Fund (VCC) Inc., NeuroDiscovery LP and Rix Professional Medical Corp., will automatically convert into the type and class of securities of Chromos issued in the subsequent equity offering at a price equal to 90% of the issue price of those securities.
