M Pharmaceutical to Request DTC Eligibility to Improve Liquidity on the OTCQB

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sept. 17, 2015) - M Pharmaceutical Inc. (CSE:MQ)(MPHMF)(T3F2.F) (the "Company"), a clinical-stage company developing innovative technologies for the monitoring and treatment of obesity, diabetes, and other gastroenterological indications, today announced that it will engage a participant of the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") to request that the Company's securities become eligible for depository services. DTC Eligibility allows for a Company's securities to be traded electronically between brokerage accounts in the U.S.

Matthew Lehman, M Pharmaceutical's CEO: "DTC Eligibility is a significant step toward improving the liquidity of our stock in the U.S. market. This will allow for electronic trading of M Pharma's securities via the OTCQB which, as of this time, is not possible."

The Company acquired the exclusive rights to three technologies invented by Dr. Martin Mintchev at the University of Calgary: (1) Trimeo capsules, temporary controllable pseudobezoars for non-invasive gastric volume reduction for the treatment of obesity; (2) Trimtec, gastrointestinal neurostimulators implanted laparoscopically for the treatment of obesity and gastroparesis without permanent anatomical modification of the stomach; and (3) eMosquito wearable blood monitor, for automatic and autonomous monitoring of blood glucose by diabetics.
