AIM ImmunoTech Announces Corporate Governance Enhancements

AIM ImmunoTech Inc. (NYSE American: AIM) ("AIM" or the "Company") today announced the following corporate governance enhancements:

• The Governance and Nominating Committee of the AIM Board of Directors (the "Board") has initiated a process to add two directors who bring diversity and additional biotechnology commercialization experience to the Board.
  

• The Compensation Committee of the Board will engage a nationally recognized independent compensation consultant to evaluate the compensation plans currently in place for the Company's executives. If appropriate, based on these inputs, the Compensation Committee will consider adjustments to the compensation structure of AIM's executives.

William Mitchell, M.D., Ph.D., Independent Chairman of the AIM Board, stated: "We are taking these important steps in response to the feedback we have received from shareholders in connection with the recent 2022 Annual Meeting. We value engagement with our shareholders and their thoughtful and constructive input, and we intend to continue these discussions in the year ahead. The corporate governance enhancements we are announcing today are designed to further strengthen our Board through the addition of new independent directors with in-depth knowledge of biotechnology commercialization and diverse backgrounds, and to further align the Company's leadership with AIM's performance and the best interests of all shareholders. We have heard what shareholders have to say ? including their lack of support for the advisory vote on the approval of executive compensation at the past two Annual Meetings ? and we are taking action to address their concerns."

Mitchell continued: "Over the past year AIM ImmunoTech has made significant progress achieving multiple clinical and regulatory advances. Clinical milestones include the publication in Cancers of an early access program sponsored by the Dutch government which showed improvement in survival of locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer patients with Ampligen as a single agent maintenance therapy following standard of care FOLFIRINOX; an abstract published at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting 2022 of positive data from a Phase 1 study in patients with metastatic triple-negative (TN) breast cancer using chemokine modulation therapy, which includes Ampligen as a key component, and Keytruda®; the publication of an abstract at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting 2022 of positive interim data from a Phase 2 study, which indicates significant survival advantage when Ampligen is combined with Cisplatin and Keytruda® in advanced recurrent ovarian cancer; and regulatory advances including the Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") authorization of Ampligen in a Phase 2 study (AMP-270) of locally advanced pancreatic cancer following FOLFIRINOX, FDA authorization of an Ampligen study (AMP-518) for post-COVID conditions / persistent ME/CFS-like symptoms often referred to by patients as "long hauler syndrome", and the FDA's granting of Orphan Drug Designation to Ampligen for the treatment of both pancreatic cancer and Ebola virus disease."

Mitchell concluded: "Moving forward, AIM will continue to work hard to build on these accomplishments and reach successive milestones in the commercial development of our pipeline. We remain convinced of the excellent potential of the Company to benefit patients and deliver value for shareholders."
