New York, June 16 - ExonHit Therapeutics SA said it completed the placement of its downsized €6.50 million secondary offering of shares.

The company said the securities were placed with retail investors in France through a public offering and institutional investors elsewhere in Europe through a private placement.

In total, ExonHit sold 1 million shares at €6.50 each.

Completion of the sale follows its reduction on June 14 from the previously announced size of 2 million shares.

The greenshoe was halved to 0.25 million shares from 0.5 million shares.

Meanwhile the company is continuing with its previously announced allocation of subscription warrants to existing shareholders.

The warrants will be allocated on June 26 and will be listed and exercisable from June 27 to Jan. 19, 2007.

The subscription warrants will enable shareholders to participate in financing the company's new projects, ExonHit said.
