PRESS RELEASE

AMOEBA announces the issuance of the eleventh tranche of 26 bonds convertible into shares as part of its bond financing with incentive program with Nice & Green.

Lyon (France), November 15, 2019 - AMOEBA (FR0011051598 - AMEBA), producer of a biological biocide capable of eliminating bacterial risk in water and human wounds, and a biocontrol product for plant protection, still in trial phase, announces the issuance of the eleventh tranche of bonds convertible into shares ("OCAs") of its bond financing with incentive program, namely 26 OCAs numbered from 261 to 286 fully issued to Nice & Green S.A.

It is recalled that the general meeting of Amoéba shareholders held on 14 January 2019 (the "General Meeting") voted in favor of setting up this financing by delegating its authority to the Board of Directors to decide to issue bonds convertible into shares with cancellation of shareholders' preferential subscription rights to Nice & Green (see press release dated 16 January 2019).

The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, using the sub-delegation granted to him by the Board of Directors at its meeting on 16 January 2019, decided, in accordance with the announced issuance schedule (see press releases dated 20 December 2018 and 16 January 2019), to issue on november 15, 2019, 26 OCAs numbered from 261 to 286 to Nice & Green S.A. corresponding to the eleventh tranche of the bond financing.

As provided for in the Issuance Agreement, these OCAs were fully subscribed at a price equal to 96% of their nominal value, representing an eleventh tranche of OCAs for a total net amount of €499,200.

It is recalled that under the terms of the Issuance Contract, Amoéba will have to issue the last tranche of OCAs according to the following issuance schedule and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent (see press releases dated 20 December 2018 and 16 January 2019):

Date Number of OCAs issued
16 december 2019 287 to 312

The above schedule may be modified and/or adjusted by mutual agreement between the Company and Nice & Green or in accordance with the provisions of the Issuance Agreement, provided that its duration does not exceed the period of validity of the delegation of authority granted by the General Meeting (see press release dated 20 December 2018).

As a reminder, the Company maintains on its website a monitoring table of the OCAs and the number of Amoéba shares in circulation (see Investors section / Regulatory information and financial documents / Other information).

As of november 15, 2019, 3,652,678 new shares were created by converting bonds numbered from 1 to 235, bringing the total number of shares outstanding to 9,665,350 shares.

As an indication, the theoretical impact of the issue of this eleventh tranche of OCAs is presented in the tables below in accordance with the OCA conversion formulas described in the Prospectus and on
