Ii-Key Platform Overview

The Ii-Key-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine is designed as a “Complete Vaccine” that has the potential to induce the T-Cell and antibody immune responses that can provide protective immunity with long-lasting immunologic memory against SARS-CoV-2 in a highly specific manner to ensure safety. Ii-Key is a platform technology enabled by the amino acid key sequence “LRMK” that is shared across the platform. The LRMK key sequence works by its ability to deliver any desired peptide epitope of interest directly to the MHC Class 2 complex on the surface of antigen presenting cells. Once a suitable target epitope is identified, an Ii-Key vaccine candidate is created by means of synthetic peptide synthesis, which produces a single linear amino acid chain that includes the Ii-Key sequence, a short inert linker sequence, and the target epitope of interest. In this way, the target epitope is delivered by the Ii-Key sequence directly to antigen presenting cells, resulting in an immune system stimulation.

MIRAMAR, Fla., Sept. 18, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Generex Biotechnology Corporation (www.generex.com) (OTCQB:GNBT) (http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/GNBT/quote) is pleased to announce that the company and Bintai Kinden Corporation of Malaysia have signed an addendum binding the terms of the previously signed Memorandum of Understanding for the development and commercialization of the Ii-Key-SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus vaccine.

Under the terms of the Addendum, Bintai and Generex will finalize the legal and contractual documentation for the contract, partnership, and licensing & research agreement, and Bintai will pay Generex an up-front licensing fee of $2.5 million within two weeks. Additionally, Bintai will pay 100% of the funding required for the commercial development of the Ii-Key-CoV-2 vaccine including laboratory work, manufacturing, regulatory filings and the clinical development program for regulatory approval of the vaccine in Malaysia. Also, upon approval of the Ii-Key-CoV-2 vaccine in Malaysia, Bintai will pay Generex a $17.5 million milestone payment and Generex will earn royalties on sales of the vaccine equal to $3 per dose on government sales and $4.50 per dose in the private sector. Further, under this new Addendum, Bintai will have the right of first refusal for the Ii-Key-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in Australia, New Zealand, and the global HALAL markets, particularly in Southeast Asia.

Under terms of the deal, Generex and Bintai have agreed to collaborate and have developed a strategy towards the rapid development of the Ii-Key-CoV-2 vaccine for Malaysia. As part of that strategy, Generex has identified a local CRO, Jigsaw Clinical Research Solutions (https://www.jigsawclinical.com/), managed by U.S. industry veteran, Jeffrey Yablon who has decades of experience in clinical development and regulatory affairs, and has established Jigsaw as the premier Malaysian CRO.

Generex CEO, Joseph Moscato said, “We want to thank our partners at Bintai for their commitment to develop our Ii-Key-SARS-CoV-2 “Complete Vaccine” against COVID-19. Our Ii-Key vaccine platform has always been about activation of the cellular immune system pathway via Ii-Key, which imparts long term memory through T-Helper cells. Our Ii-Key-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine strategy combines the Ii-Key T-Cell response with B-Cell epitopes that activate the humoral (antibody) response to deliver a Complete Vaccine for short and long-term protection from COVID-19. The Ii-Key platform has demonstrated that AE37, our Ii-Key-HER2 vaccine provides long-term immune memory with cellular responses active for three years in prostate cancer1, and statistically significant benefit in disease free survival for breast cancer patients with advanced disease and low HER2 expression2. Immunologic memory is the key to providing a real solution for COVID-19.

With this licensing and research agreement being finalized, we can unlock the true potential of the Ii-Key technology to provide a safe and effective vaccine to stop the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, and to provide the long-term immune system memory needed to protect the population. Our plan is collaborative, combining

U.S. and Malaysian operations to advance our Ii-Key vaccine through the clinical and regulatory process in Malaysia to eventually transfer the manufacturing to Malaysia for local production, leveraging Bintai’s expertise in industrial engineering and construction. We have initiated the blood screening program using convalescent blood and serum for COVID-19 recovered patients to select Ii-Key-SARS-CoV-2 epitopes that will comprise the final vaccine formulation, after which we will initiate GMP manufacturing for Ii-Key- SARS-CoV-2 vaccine clinical trial supply.”

Mr. Moscato continued, “I would like to personally thank the Bintai organization for their belief in Generex and commitment to develop a safe, effective, and universal vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 for the benefit of Malaysia, and we look forward to accelerating our COVID-19 vaccine program together.”

BACKGROUND OF THE VACCINE AND NUGEN :X:

NuGenerex Immuno-Oncology, a subsidiary of Generex Biotechnology, is a clinical stage oncology company developing immunotherapeutic peptide vaccines for cancer and infectious disease based on the CD4 T-Cell activation platform, Ii-Key. NuGenerex Immuno-Oncology (NGIO) has been spun out of Generex as a separate public company to advance the platform Ii-Key technology, particularly in combination with the immune checkpoint inhibitors. NGIO is currently engaged in a Phase II clinical trial of its lead cancer immunotherapeutic vaccine AE37 in combination with pembrolizumab (Merck's Keytruda®) for the treatment of triple negative breast cancer. The company has also turned its Ii-Key technology on infectious disease, responding to the coronavirus pandemic with a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine development program.

Generex Biotechnology Corporation has been working to develop a peptide vaccine against the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 using the company's proprietary and patented Ii-Key immune system activation technology. We have built our technology to assist third party groups and government agencies in their evaluation of potential vaccines against this pandemic SARS-CoV-2 virus.

The patented NuGenerex Immuno-Oncology (Formerly Antigen Express) Ii-Key technology uses synthetic peptides that mimic essential protein regions from a virus that are chemically linked to the 4-amino acid Ii-Key to ensure robust immune system activation. In particular, the Ii-Key ensures potent activation of CD4+ T cells, which in turn facilitates antibody production to ward off infection. This Ii-Key modification can be applied to any protein fragment of any pathogen to increase the potency of immune stimulation.

Generex is working with our partners at EpiVax who have identified such protein fragments or epitopes to generate Ii-Key-SARS 2 peptide vaccines in collaboration with our peptide manufacturing partners. The peptides and Ii-Key are made from naturally occurring amino acids, ensuring an excellent safety profile for Ii-Key peptide vaccines. 2

PURPOSE, RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES, SCOPE OF COLLABORATION

1 Parties have agree to collaborate and had laid down the strategy towards the rapid development of the Vaccine as follows:

(a)

Streamlining Vaccine Development Process

To simultaneously implement different stages of development and production, so vaccine can be developed at a faster rate. Generex has invested a sigificant amount of capital and made contractual commitments for the early-stage research, manufacturing, regulatory work, and ex-vivo and clinical study of its Ii-Key Peptide Vaccine for COVID- 19 . Additionally, Generex had developed a clinical trial program that will enable the development of the Ii-Key-SARS-CoV2 Peptide Vaccine for COVID-19 such that wehave human safety and preliminary efficacy results within 5 months.

(b)

Creating Clinical Trials Globally

The development of a vaccine for COVID-19 should not be a race for high income countries, byhaving clinical trials in as many countries would enable the best chance of finding a vaccine that is safe, effective and affordable for everyone. With a multi-country approach, it is the Parties' goals to conduct as many clinical trials as possible to ensure efficacy of the vaccine is generalizable or suited to the native patients and to further obtain commercial license for sale of Ii-Key/ COVID-19 Peptide Vaccine from the Malaysia Ministry of Health.
