Biophytis - Convening of Another Combined General Meeting at a Later Date

PARIS and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biophytis SA (Euronext Growth Paris: ALBPS), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of therapeutics aimed at slowing the degenerative processes associated with aging and improving functional outcomes for patients suffering from age-related diseases, including severe respiratory failure in patients suffering from COVID-19, informs its shareholders that the combined Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on April 26, 2021 was unable to deliberate, as the required quorum was not reached.

Biophytis’ combined AGM took place today behind closed doors, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The shareholders taking part in the vote owned collectively 21 736 509 shares, or 19.11% of the share capital, and 19.46% of the voting rights.

The 20% quorum necessary for holding an ordinary AGM on first call and the 25% quorum necessary for holding an extraordinary General Meeting on first call have not been reached. Therefore, in the absence of the quorum required to rule on the ordinary and extraordinary resolutions, none of the proposed resolutions as listed in the meeting notice published in the French official legal bulletin Bulletin des Annonces Légales Obligatoires (BALO) n° 30, dated March 10, 2021, have been put to the vote of the shareholders and the AGM is adjourned.

Shareholders will therefore be invited to another combined AGM, on the second call, to be held at a later date with the same agenda.

All of the documents regarding this combined AGM are available to shareholders on the Company’s website: www.biophytis.com, in the section Investors / General Assembly 2021: https://www.biophytis.com/en/action/assemblees-generales/assemblee-gen ...

If you are a Biophytis shareholder and wish to vote on the resolutions, you can:

• vote via the secured web portal VOTACCESS, this method is strongly recommended in the current context of Covid-19,
• vote by post or proxy, in accordance with the terms and conditions indicated in the Shareholders’ letter and in the Bulletin des Annonces Légales Obligatoires (BALO) n° 30, dated March 10, 2021, available on Biophytis’ website

The vote of shareholders who submitted their vote via the post, email or the Internet for the first general meeting remains valid and counted for the general meeting on the second call.
