MEDIA, Pa., Jan. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Synova Healthcare Group, Inc. , today announced, in connection with the previously announced strategic acquisition of Allendale Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (API), and the acquisition of the exclusive worldwide rights to the Today(R) contraceptive sponge, that it has completed a private placement of $15 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.5% senior convertible promissory notes and related common stock purchase warrants. The Notes were placed with certain institutional and accredited investors, as well as to certain of our existing investors and members of management.
