ABOUT RELIEF'S ADR PROGRAM

Relief's ADRs are currently traded on the over-the-counter ("OTC") under the trading symbol ("RLFTY"). An ADR is a negotiable receipt, resembling a stock certificate, that is issued by a U.S. depositary bank appointed by a company to evidence one or more American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"). In the case of Relief's ADRs, each ADS currently represents 150 of Relief's ordinary shares, and effective November 3, 2022, the ratio will change and each ADS will going forward represent 200 of Relief's ordinary shares. On the effective date of the reverse split, three new ADRs will be issued for four existing ADRs, and fractional ADRs will be paid as cash in lieu.

ADRs allow U.S. investors to buy shares in foreign companies without the need for cross-border or cross-currency transactions. They are priced in U.S. dollars and can be traded like shares of U.S.-based companies listed on the OTC market. Under the program, the owners, and holders of ADSs have the same rights to dividends and distributions and voting powers as the holders of Relief's ordinary shares subject, however, to enforcement procedures provided in the deposit agreement entered into by and among Relief, J.P. Morgan, as the depositary, and the owners and holders of ADSs.

Instructions for converting Relief ordinary shares into ADRs are posted on Relief's website at https://www.relieftherapeutics.com/investor-relations or click here.
