CytoDyn Files Lawsuit Against Activist Group

 Suit Details Unlawful Attempts to Solicit Votes on Part of the Activist Group

CytoDyn is Acting to Protect All Shareholders and Prevent Activist Group from Continuing to Violate Federal Securities Laws

CytoDyn Inc. (OTCQB: CYDY) ("CytoDyn" or the "Company"), a late-stage biotechnology company, today announced that it has filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against the activist group led by Paul Rosenbaum and Bruce Patterson (the "Rosenbaum/Patterson Group" or the "Activist Group"). The suit seeks to enjoin the Activist Group from misleading shareholders and waging an illegal proxy contest to take over control of the Company’s Board of Directors (the "Board").

As announced on August 2, 2021, CytoDyn has determined that the director nomination notice submitted by the Rosenbaum/Patterson Group was invalid because it failed to comply with the Company’s bylaws in more than 50 instances. The Activist Group has since then stated that it intends to press on with its proxy contest and has continued with its efforts to make misrepresentations to shareholders. The Company has been left with no other option than to sue to enjoin the Rosenbaum/Patterson Group from further violations of the federal securities laws and misleading shareholders.
