Toronto, Canada, October 17th 2014: Tissue Regeneration Therapeutics Inc. (TRT)
today announced it has completed the final milestone in a structured royalty sale
transaction with SWK Holdings Corporation. The transaction, valued at US$3.25 million,
was based on the strength of two TRT technology licenses in the family cord banking
services sector.

TRT is a progressive biotechnology company with a focus on the commercial development
of our patented Human Umbilical Cord PeriVascular Cell (HUCPVC) platform technology
and its TXP family of cell therapy products. TRT has discovered the world’s richest source
of mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) with potent regenerative, angiogenic, anti-
inflammatory, and immuno-regulatory properties. Unique advantages of the TRT HUCPVC
platform technology are founded on the highly enriched source of these important cells
compared to other tissue sources. Specifically, HUCPVCs represent high cell yields at
harvest from tissue normally discarded at birth; high frequencies of mesenchymal stromal
cells within the harvested population, their increased biological potential compared to cells
derived from adult tissues and their inexhaustible supply.
