Sigyn is Focused on the Treatment
of Sepsis and Other Life-Threatening Inflammatory Conditions That are Not Addressed
with Approved Drug Therapies

Trading to Commence Tomorrow
Under the Ticker Symbol “SIGY”

San Diego, California – (NewMediaWire) – October 19, 2020 – Sigyn
Therapeutics, Inc., a medical technology company focused on the treatment of life-threatening
inflammatory conditions, today announced the completion of its previously disclosed
merger with Reign Resources Corporation (OTCMarkets: RGNP). The new combined company
will operate under the name Sigyn Therapeutics, Inc. (Sigyn) and will commence trading
tomorrow, October 20th under the ticker symbol SIGY.

Sigyn was established to address
a significant unmet need in global health; the treatment of life-threatening inflammatory
conditions precipitated by Cytokine Storm Syndrome (“the Cytokine Storm”), a hyperactive
immune response that can induce multiple organ failure and cause death. The annual market opportunity for a therapeutic
strategy to prevent or mitigate the Cytokine Storm exceeds $20 billion.

Sigyn Therapy™ is a development-stage
blood purification therapy created to overcome the limitations of previous drugs
and devices to treat life-threatening inflammatory conditions, including sepsis,
the #1 cause of in-hospital deaths. Mechanistically,
Sigyn Therapy is designed to deplete the presence of a broad-spectrum of inflammatory
factors from the human circulatory system. This includes pro-inflammatory cytokines,
cytokine aggregates, endotoxin and larger CytoVesicles that transport cytokines
and other inflammatory cargos in the bloodstream.

Beyond sepsis, Cytokine Storm related
therapeutic opportunities may include, but are not limited to virus-induced Cytokine
Storm (a leading cause of COVID-19 deaths), bacteria-induced Cytokine Storm, acute
respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute forms of liver failure, including
hepatic encephalopathy. Sigyn Therapy may
also be a candidate to stabilize or extend the life of patients waiting for the
identification of a matched liver for transplantation. In such a scenario, Sigyn Therapy™ would serve
as a bridge-to-liver transplant. Cytokine Storm Syndrome may also be induced by
trauma, severe burns, acute pancreatitis, adverse drug reactions, cancer immunotherapies,
cancer cachexia, acute kidney injury (AKI) and severe pneumonia.

“The completion of this merger fulfills
our objective to establish Sigyn Therapeutics as a publicly-traded company,” stated
Sigyn Chairman and CEO, Jim Joyce. “To further the advancement of Sigyn Therapy,
we are initiating a series of studies to reinforce the capability of our technology
and to support our regulatory milestone objective to submit an Investigation Device
Exemption (IDE) to The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2021.”

Mr. Joyce has two decades of public
company CEO and corporate board leadership experience. Specific to blood purification therapies, Mr.
Joyce is the founder, former Chairman and CEO of Aethlon Medical, a company he navigated
from a single shareholder start-up to Nasdaq-traded Company with 8000+ shareholders.
During his tenure at Aethlon, Mr. Joyce oversaw the development of the Hemopurifier®,
a first-in-class blood purification technology to address life-threatening viruses
and cancer-promoting exosomes. Under his leadership, the Hemopurifier® became the
first therapeutic candidate to be awarded two FDA “Breakthrough Device” designations
and was the first and only device to receive “Emergency Use Authorization” (EAU)
approval from both the FDA and Health Canada to treat Ebola virus. Time Magazine
named the Hemopurifier® one of the “11 Most Remarkable Advances in Healthcare” and
designated the device to its “Top 25 Best Inventions” award list.

Sigyn Therapy was developed by Mr.
Joyce and Sigyn Chief Technical Officer, Craig Roberts. Collectively, they have 50+ years of experience
in the medical technology field and played instrumental roles in the development
of three device technologies that have been cleared by the FDA to treat COVID-19
infected individuals.

In connection with the closing of
the merger, Sigyn has approximately 34 million shares of common stock issued and
outstanding with prior Sigyn equity-holders collectively owning approximately 75%
of the combined company on a fully-diluted basis, and Reign equity-holders collectively
owning approximately 25% of the combined company on a fully-diluted basis.

About Sigyn Therapeutics

Sigyn Therapeutics is a development-stage
therapeutic technology company headquartered in San Diego, California USA. Our focus
is directed toward a significant unmet need in global health; the treatment of life-threatening
inflammatory conditions that are precipitated by Cytokine Storm Syndrome and not
addressed with an approved therapy. Our mission is to save lives.

Sigyn Therapy™ is a novel blood
purification technology designed to mitigate cytokine storm syndrome through the
broad-spectrum depletion of inflammatory targets from the bloodstream. Cytokine
storm syndrome is the hallmark of sepsis, which is the most common cause of in-hospital
deaths and claims more lives each year than all forms of cancer combined. Virus induced cytokine storm (VICS) is associated
with high mortality and is a leading cause of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) deaths. Other
therapeutic opportunities include, but are not limited to bacteria induced cytokine
storm (BICS), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute forms of liver
failure, such as hepatic encephalopathy.
