Each Unit consists of one share of common stock (the "Offered Shares") and one warrant (a "Warrant") entitling the holder to purchase one share of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.75 per share (a "Warrant Share"). The Warrants are exercisable immediately and will expire on the third anniversary of the date of their issuance.

The Units were distributed under a short form prospectus dated January 27, 2020 filed by the Company in connection with the Offering and available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and have been registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a Form S-1 Registration Statement that was declared effective on January 31, 2020 (the "Registration Statement"). The Offering was conducted, on a best efforts basis, by Echelon Wealth Partners Inc. (the "Agent"). In consideration for the services rendered by the Agent, the Company has paid the Agent an agency fee equal to 7% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and has issued the Agent a number of warrants (the "Agent Warrants") equal to 7% of the number of Units issued under the Offering, each Agent Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one share of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.75 per share until the third anniversary of the date of their issuance. After the payment of the Agent’s commissions and the reimbursement of certain of the Agent’s Offering expenses and the payment of other Offering expenses, the Company expects the net proceeds from the Offering to be approximately C$7.4 million.

The Company has granted the Agent an over-allotment option exercisable, in whole or in part, at the sole discretion of the Agent, at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. (Montreal time) on the date that is the 30th day after the date hereof, to offer and sell up to an additional number of Units representing 15% of the number of Units sold pursuant to the Offering, at the Offering Price to cover over-allocations, if any, and for market stabilization purposes.

The TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") has conditionally approved the listing of the Warrants and the common stock that will be issued by the Company in the Offering, including the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants and the Agent Warrants. Listing on the TSXV will be subject to the Company fulfilling all of the listing requirements of the TSXV within 15 days of the closing of the Offering.

The Warrants will be listed on the TSXV under the symbol "IGX.WT" and will commence trading effective at the opening of the market on Thursday, February 13, 2020.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for its Phase 2A Montelukast Study and general working capital requirements.
