Special Meeting Adjourned to Thursday, November 21, 2024

WOBURN, MA / ACCESSWIRE / November 8, 2024 / Yield10 Bioscience, Inc. (OTCQB:YTEN) ("Yield10" or the "Company"), an agricultural bioscience company, today announced that its Special Meeting of Stockholders (the "Special Meeting"), scheduled to be held at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on November 8, 2024, was convened and adjourned, without any business being conducted, due to lack of sufficient votes in favor of the key proposals related to the Asset Sale to Nuseed and the Dissolution proposal.

To pass the proposals, more than 50% of the shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote as of the close of business on October 3, 2024 (the record date for the Special Meeting) must be voted in favor of the key Proposals 1 and 2. Due to the lack of sufficient votes in favor of the proposals as of November 8, 2024, the Special Meeting of Stockholders was adjourned to 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on Thursday, November 21, 2024, to allow additional time for Yield10's stockholders to vote on the proposals set forth in Yield10's definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on October 16, 2024.

The board of directors and management of Yield10 request stockholders as of the record date to please vote their proxies as soon as possible. During the current adjournment, Yield10 will continue to solicit votes from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in Yield10's proxy statement. Only stockholders of record as of the record date, October 3, 2024, are entitled to and are being requested to vote. Proxies previously submitted in respect of the Special Meeting will be voted at the adjourned Special Meeting unless properly revoked, and stockholders who have previously submitted a proxy or otherwise voted need not take any action.

Oliver Peoples, Ph.D. President and Chief Executive Officer of Yield10 commented, "We are very grateful to our stockholders who have voted their proxies over the past three weeks. We continue to strongly encourage all Yield10 stockholders eligible to vote to review the proxy materials and participate in voting, as the proposed asset sale to Nuseed is the only avenue under which stockholders would potentially receive a payment for their shares."

For stockholders having any questions or requiring further assistance in voting shares, please contact Yield10's proxy solicitation agent Alliance Advisors toll-free at 855-643-7305. Yield10 encourages all stockholders of record who have not yet voted, to do so by November 20, 2024 at 11:59 p.m., Eastern time.

If the number of additional shares of common stock voted at the adjourned Special Meeting is not sufficient to reach a favorable vote on the Asset Sale to Nuseed and the Dissolution Proposal, Yield10 may determine to adjourn the Special Meeting again, which would require Yield10 to incur additional costs.
