I.- LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Since the founding of KYMOS, S.L. (“KYMOS” or “the Company”) in 2001 by a group of scientists with extensive experience in the areas of research, development and quality control of the pharmaceutical industry, it began an exciting path that continues today and growing day by day with new people with the same spirit of innovation and improvement that its founders had and whose values and ethical principles consist of acting with integrity and being respectful of people, the environment and current legislation.

The legislative and social changes that have arisen in recent years in our environment have led us to promote the implementation of this Code of Conduct in our Company, which has become the highest standard regulatory instrument in the Company’s regulatory structure. This Code of Conduct contains the ethical principles that the Company applies in all areas of its activity and represents our commitment to comply with the laws and the ethical values that are defended in such laws. This Code is called to be a key tool so that we continue to be responsible, integral, respectful of the law and human rights, transparent and attentive to any unfair practice.

Being part of KYMOS implies being fully committed to the values of this Code of Conduct that sets clear principles that should guide the actions of our staff.

The shareholders, directors and employees of KYMOS, as well as its subsidiaries, must adhere to this Code of Conduct and voluntarily assume the obligation to adjust all its activities to the spirit of its provisions.

In addition, customers, collaborators and suppliers of the Company will be asked to agree to comply with the ethical principles of this Code in the absence of their own Code of Conduct that contains equivalent provisions.

The Company has adopted measures to ensure strict compliance with this Code of Conduct and we will always be attentive to any practice that could risk a commitment to act in accordance with the ethical principles set forth in it. Likewise, we ask our employees that the same diligence, values and commitment guide their daily actions.

In my name and in the name of the Board of Directors of the Company, I would like to thank in advance the commitment of all the people who are part of KYMOS in complying with this Code of Conduct

Kindest regards,

Joan Puig Corcoy

Chairman of the Board of Director
