DOYLESTOWN, PA--(Marketwired - August 05, 2015) - ProPhase Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRPH) (www.ProPhaseLabs.com) announced today that as of July 30, 2015, it entered into an Investment Agreement (the "Investment Agreement") with Dutchess Opportunity Fund, II, LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("Dutchess"). Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, Dutchess committed to purchase, subject to certain restrictions and conditions, up to 3,200,000 shares of the Company's common stock, over a period of 36 months from the first trading day following the effectiveness of the registration statement registering the resale of shares purchased by Dutchess pursuant to the Investment Agreement.

The Company may in its discretion draw on the facility from time to time, as and when the Company determines appropriate in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement. The maximum number of shares that the Company is entitled to put to Dutchess in any one draw down notice shall not exceed 500,000 shares with a purchase price calculated in accordance with the Investment Agreement.

Ted Karkus, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated: "The availability of this equity line enables the Company to raise capital as needed in a highly efficient manner. The combination of litigation expenses, new product development, enhanced marketing and brand building activities, and other corporate projects makes clear that setting up this equity line is prudent. There are no options, warrants or convertible debt associated with the equity line. We will seek to use the equity line, to the extent needed, at such times as are appropriate in view of market and other conditions."
