PRESS RELEASE

Lysogene announces the request for the opening
of a safeguard proceeding

Paris, France — 6 December 2022 — Lysogene (FR0013233475 – LYS), a phase 3 gene
therapy platform Company targeting central nervous system (CNS) diseases, today
announces the request for the opening of a safeguard proceeding.

Given its financial situation and the absence of new financing as of today, Lysogene has
submitted a request to the Nanterre Commercial Court to open a safeguard procedure in its
favor. The Nanterre Commercial Court will rule on this request in the coming days.

Lysogene is pursuing discussions with potential partners and investors with the objective of
finding a solution to strengthen its financial position and extend its cash runway beyond its
current term (February 2023). Despite the interest expressed in the Company's programs, the
discussions are still ongoing. In this context, the opening of a safeguard proceeding will provide
time for potential partners and investors to materialize their expressions of interest and for
the Company to contact other potentially interested parties.

In anticipation of this announcement, Lysogene has requested Euronext Paris to suspend the
trading of its shares as of the opening of the stock market today. The trading will remain
suspended pending the decision of the Commercial Court of Nanterre on the opening of the
safeguard proceeding expected during the week of December 12, 2022.

The market will be regularly informed of the progress of the procedure and, more generally, of
the financial situation of Lysogene.
