    "Bergen Asset Management's Chief Investment Officer, Mr. Eugene Tablis and his team are very familiar with Prima. As a co-founder of SpringTree Global Investors, Mr. Tablis co-managed SpringTree Special Opportunities Fund LP's ("SpringTree") investment in Prima from 2009 to 2011. During that time, in addition to funding Prima by way of a structured equity deal, SpringTree also participated in conventional institutional placements by Prima, and saw Prima's share price increase from 7.1 cents to 29.5 cents during that 22 month period," he said.

    Mr. Eugene Tablis, Bergen Asset Management's Chief Investment Officer commented: "We look forward to working with Prima as it executes on its corporate and scientific plans. Our best investments have been made in companies in transition. We are delighted to be able to provide the company with funding that can enable it to complete its clinical trials and to expand."
