   Biophytis Announces Transfer of ADSs to OTC Market



     * ADSs delisted from Nasdaq, which will result in meaningful
       savings
     * ADSs transferred to OTC Pink market; Company will apply to
       trade on OTCQB market
     * Biophytis remains listed on Euronext Growth Paris as its
       primary trading market



   Paris (France) and Cambridge (Massachusetts, USA), April 24, 2024
   - 11:00pm CET - Biophytis SA (Euronext Growth Paris : ALBPS),
   ("Biophytis" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotechnology
   company specializing in the  development of  therapeutics for
   age-related diseases, today annouced that on April 24, 2024, the
   Company received formal notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC
   ("Nasdaq") that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the "Panel") had
   determined to delist the Company's American Depositary Shares
   ("ADSs") from The Nasdaq Capital Market based upon the Company's
   non-compliance with the stockholders' equity requirement set
   forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b). As a result of the Panel's
   decision, Nasdaq will suspend trading in the Company's ADSs
   effective with the opening of business on Friday, April 26, 2024,
   and file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission
   (the "SEC") to effect the formal delisting of the Company's ADSs
   from The Nasdaq Capital Market once all applicable Nasdaq appeal
   and review periods have expired.


   The Company anticipates that, concurrent with the suspension of
   trading of its ADSs on Nasdaq, the Company's ADSs will begin
   trading on the OTC Markets' OTC Pink Current Information tier
   under the current symbol "BPTS" while it applies to trade on the
   higher-tier OTCQB market. The Company expects that this transfer
   will meaningfully reduce its ongoing costs of being a
   publicly-traded company.


   The Company's ordinary shares remain listed on Euronext Growth
   Paris as the primary trading market and the Company intends to
   continue its public disclosures in compliance with applicable
   French financial market regulations.
