By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., Jan. 31 - Radient Pharmaceuticals Corp. said it plans a private placement of convertible original issue discount notes. The deal will raise $8.4 million, and each buyer will pay $888.88 for each $1,000 of notes.

The notes mature in 11 months and are convertible into common shares at an initial conversion price of $0.60. The conversion price is a 10.45% discount to the Jan. 28 closing share price of $0.67.

Each of the investors also received two five-year warrants. The series A warrants are initially exercisable at $0.67 per share, which is identical to the Jan. 28 closing share price, and the series B warrants are initially exercisable at $0.8175 per share, a 22.01% premium to that price.

Proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including activities related to the long-term commercialization of RPC's Onko-Sure in vitro diagnostic cancer test.
