Board and Management Team Have Initiated a Misguided, Deceptive Public Relations Campaign That Has Further Damaged Company’s Value and Credibility

Urges Stockholders to Vote on the WHITE Proxy Card Today to Elect Group’s Five Highly Experienced Director Nominees to Effect Sorely Needed Change and Begin to Generate Much-Needed Revenue

A group of long-time stockholders (the “Group”) of CytoDyn Inc. (“CYDY” or the “Company”) (OTC: CYDY) that has nominated five highly experienced director candidates to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors today released a letter to fellow stockholders outlining recent ill-advised actions and announcements made by CYDY’s current leadership that have further destroyed the Company’s value and damaged its credibility.

The letter outlines CYDY leadership’s previous unwillingness to work collaboratively and constructively with experts to secure FDA approval for Leronlimab, and their greater concern with clinging to their positions and outsized compensation packages at the expense of shareholders. It also highlights the recent value destructive public relations campaign initiated by current Board and management, designed to distract stockholders from its history of failures and missed deadlines, which has only further impeded CYDY’s efforts to secure FDA approval for Leronlimab.

The letter emphasizes that if elected, the Group’s nominees will work collaboratively with others to implement a strategic plan designed to obtain FDA approval. This plan, which will be shared with all stockholders shortly, should generate much-needed revenue in the near term, help restore CYDY’s credibility, and enhance long-term value for all stockholders.

The full text of the Group’s letter to CYDY stockholders can be accessed at: www.advancingll.com/lettertwo.

All CYDY shareholders are reminded that your vote is extremely important, no matter how many shares you own and despite CYDY leadership’s efforts to suppress your vote. The value of your investment is at risk. Help enable CYDY to achieve its incredible potential by voting the WHITE proxy card to elect our five independent director nominees today.
