has obtained a receipt for its amended and restated prospectus dated January 31, 2017 amending
and restating the prospectus dated October 27, 2016 (the “Amended Prospectus”) in connection
with a proposed offering of units of the Corporation for minimum aggregate gross proceeds of
$6,000,000 and maximum aggregate gross proceeds of $10,000,000 (the “Offering”), at a price of

the Offering. The terms of the Offering remain unchanged as those previously announced by the
Corporation as of October 31, 2016. The Offering is expected to close on or about March 31, 2017
and is subject to certain customary conditions and regulatory approvals. The TSX Venture
Exchange (the “TSXV”) has accepted to grant the Corporation an extension to complete its
qualifying transaction and has conditionally approved the transaction and the listing of the Amalco
subordinate voting Shares. Listing is subject to the Corporation fulfilling all of the requirements of
the TSXV.à

The Offering is being made pursuant to a prospectus filed in Québec, Ontario, Alberta and British
Columbia. A copy of the Amended Prospectus is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

About Devonian

Devonian is a late stage botanical pharmaceutical company with novel therapeutic approaches
targeting unmet medical needs. Devonian’s core strategy is to develop prescription botanical drugs.
This strategy is supported by US-FDA set of regulatory guidelines favouring a more efficient drug
development pathway versus traditional prescription medicines. Devonian is based on a
broad-based platform originating from over ten years of research. This platform provides a unique
process of extraction, purification, stabilization and conditioning of a molecular complex
responsible for the photosynthetic process in plants and algae: The Supra Molecular Complex
Extraction and Stabilisation Technology (SUPREX). The “Thykaminetm” is the first product issued
from this platform. The potent anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities of “Thykaminetm” have been demonstrated in several pre-clinical experiments as well as in a Phase 2a ‘‘proof of
concept’’ clinical study in patients with mild-to-moderate distal ulcerative colitis. The product is
now moving into large phase 2 clinical trials in two therapeutic areas: Ulcerative Colitis and
Atopic Dermatitis. While the development of prescription botanical drugs is its core business,
Devonian is also involved in the development of high value derma-cosmeceutical products as part
of a secondary strategy to generate short-term revenues and optimize manufacturing efficiency.

Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in
policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this
release.
