ioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: BPAX) closed a previously announced sale of an aggre-


gate of $18 million of securities in a registered direct offering. BioSante received net proceeds of appro- ximately $16.9 million after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. BioSante sold an aggregate of approximately 10.6 million shares


The warrants to purchase additional shares are ex- ercisable immediately at an exercise price of $2.00 per share and will expire on December 29, 2015. All of the securities were offered pursuant to an effec- tive shelf registration statement. Proceeds from the transaction will be used for general corporate pur- poses, including BioSante’s LibiGel Phase III clinical study program. LibiGel remains the lead pharmaceu- tical product in the U.S. in active development for the treatment of hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in menopausal women, and BioSante be- lieves that LibiGel has the potential to be the first product approved by the FDA for this common and unmet medical need.


Furthermore, BioSante Pharmaceuticals announced results of a survey of over 100 Obstetrician/Gyne- cologists and Primary Care Physicians regarding the need for an FDA-approved drug to treat a form of Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD) known as Hypo- active Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD). The multiple surveys, conducted independently for BioSante by Campbell Alliance Group, Inc., revealed sexual dys- function to be one of the most common complaints received in these doctors’ offices. The physicians described themselves as dissatisfied with the current lack of therapeutic options for HSDD, a loss of libido or sexual desire.
