Dr. Diwan will share with investors the progress NanoViricides has accomplished in the past year.

"The ultra-broad-spectrum antiviral drug NV-387 could lead to a disruptive change in how we treat viral infections just as penicillin revolutionized how we treat bacterial infections," said Dr. Diwan.

The Company's lead drug, NV-387 has successfully completed Phase 1a/1b human clinical trials in healthy subjects, with no reported adverse events, indicating excellent safety. This clinical trial was sponsored by Karveer Meditech Pvt. Ltd., the Company's licensee and collaborator, and conducted by PristynCR in India.

The same drug NV-387 has demonstrated strong antiviral activity against viruses from multiple families, including Coronaviruses (SARS-CoV-2, Long COVID, Seasonal coronaviral infections), RSV, Influenza A, as well as a Smallpox/Mpox related mouse virus in stringent, lethal viral infection animal models. In all of these cases, NV-387 led to improvement in survival that substantially exceeded or was at least on par with that from already approved drugs or known antiviral agents.

NV-387 could be the very first single drug that can treat all of the "tripledemic" viral infections, namely, Coronaviruses, RSV, and Influenza A.

Once the Phase I final report is available, the Company plans to advance NV-387 into Phase II clinical trials for the evaluation of antiviral effect. The Company believes that these clinical trials, if successful, would follow Phase III clinical trials towards regulatory approval of NV-387 to treat various viral infections.

In addition to NV-387, the Company has a broad and deep pipeline of drug candidates against several virus families. The most advanced among these, NV-HHV-1, is the Company's lead drug candidate for the treatment of Shingles rash, HSV-1 "cold sores" and HSV-2 "genital ulcers".

About NanoViricides

NanoViricides, Inc. (the "Company") (www.nanoviricides.com) is a development stage company that is creating special purpose nanomaterials for antiviral therapy. The Company's novel nanoviricide® class of drug candidates are designed to specifically attack enveloped virus particles and to dismantle them. Additionally, nanoviricides mimick the host-side features that the viruses continue to require in spite of mutations, and therefore the viruses would be highly unlikely to escape the nanvoricide drugs.

Our lead drug candidate is NV-387 (drug product NV-CoV-2) for the treatment of RSV, COVID-19, Long COVID, Influenza, Bird Flu H5N1, and other respiratory viral infections. NV-387 has successfully completed a Phase 1a/1b human clinical trial in healthy subjects with no reported adverse events even at the highest and repeated dosages. The Company is currently focused on advancing NV-387 into Phase II human clinical trials for treatment of RSV infection.

Our other advanced candidate is NV-HHV-1 for the treatment of Shingles rash, HSV-1 "cold sores" and HSV-2 "genital ulcers". The Company cannot project an exact date for filing an IND for any of its drugs because of dependence on a number of external collaborators and consultants.

The Company is also developing drugs against a number of viral diseases including oral and genital Herpes, viral diseases of the eye including EKC and herpes keratitis, H1N1 swine flu, H5N1 bird flu, seasonal Influenza, HIV, Hepatitis C, Rabies, Dengue fever, and Ebola virus, among others. NanoViricides' platform technology and programs are based on the TheraCour® nanomedicine technology of TheraCour, which TheraCour licenses from AllExcel. NanoViricides holds a worldwide exclusive perpetual license to this technology for several drugs with specific targeting mechanisms in perpetuity for the treatment of the following human viral diseases: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV/AIDS), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), Rabies, Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2), Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV), Influenza and Asian Bird Flu Virus, Dengue viruses, Japanese Encephalitis virus, West Nile Virus, Ebola/Marburg viruses, and certain Coronaviruses. The Company intends to obtain a license for poxviruses and/or enteroviruses if the initial research is successful. The Company's technology is based on broad, exclusive, sub-licensable, field licenses to drugs developed in these areas from TheraCour Pharma, Inc. The Company's business model is based on licensing technology from TheraCour Pharma Inc. for specific application verticals of specific viruses, as established at its foundation in 2005.

As is customary, the Company must state the risk factor that the path to typical drug development of any pharmaceutical product is extremely lengthy and requires substantial capital. As with any drug development efforts by any company, there can be no assurance at this time that any of the Company's pharmaceutical candidates would show sufficient effectiveness and safety for human clinical development. Further, there can be no assurance at this time that successful results against coronavirus in our lab will lead to successful clinical trials or a successful pharmaceutical product.
