Vivoryon Therapeutics AG Postpones Annual General Meeting

HALLE (SAALE) / Munich, Germany, 12 May 2020 - Vivoryon Therapeutics AG (Euronext Amsterdam: VVY, ISIN DE0007921835) today announced the postponement of the Annual General Meeting which was previously scheduled for June 24, 2020 in Halle (Saale). The decision was made by the Company's management team with subsequent approval from the Supervisory Board.


The decision was made due to the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 global pandemic. According to the Fifth Ordinance on "Measures to Curb the Spread of the Novel Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2," announced by the state government of Saxony-Anhalt on May 2, 2020, all events and gatherings with more than five people nationwide are prohibited until May 27, 2020.


Although the Annual General Meeting was scheduled to take place after the planned expiration date of the aforementioned ordinance, the invitation to the meeting would have had to be published before May 27, 2020. As it is unforeseeable whether the ordinance guidelines will be extended or changed, and in order to give shareholders appropriate planning time and to ensure their safety, the management team has decided to postpone the Annual General Meeting.


The Annual General Meeting is expected to be rescheduled for the second half of September 2020. The Company will inform its shareholders well in advance once a meeting date has been decided.
