(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the "Amendment"), with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to (i) effectuate a one-for-ten (1:10) reverse stock split (the &#8220;Reverse Stock Split&#8221;) of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), without any change to its par value, and (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 75,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares (which amount is not otherwise affected by the Reverse Stock Split).&nbsp;&nbsp;The Amendment became effective on the filing date. The Reverse Stock Split will be effective for trading purposes as of the commencement of trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on May 24, 2018.&nbsp;&nbsp;There was no change in the Company&#8217;s Nasdaq ticker symbol, &#8220;CYTX,&#8221; as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the CUSIP number for the Common Stock has been changed to 23283K402. Upon effectiveness, each 10 shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock were converted into one newly issued and outstanding share of Common Stock and the number of authorized shares of Common Stock was increased from 75,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares. The Company&#8217;s 5,000,000 shares of authorized Preferred Stock were not affected by the Reverse Stock Split.</p>

Any fractional shares of Common Stock that would have otherwise resulted from the Reverse Stock Split were rounded up to the nearest whole share. Outstanding equity awards and the shares available for future grant under the Company&#8217;s Amended and Restated 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, 2014 Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan and 2015 New Employee Incentive Plan were proportionately reduced (rounded down to the nearest whole share), and the exercise prices of outstanding equity awards were proportionately increased (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split.</p>

<p style="margin-bottom:13pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:0%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">SAN DIEGO, May 23, 2018&#8212;<font style="color:#auto;text-decoration:underline;letter-spacing:0pt;"><strike Style="text-decoration:none;">Cytori Therapeutics</strike></font> (NASDAQ: CYTX) (&#8220;Cytori&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;) today announced that the Company effected a reverse stock split that became effective on May 23, 2018 at a ratio of one-for-ten, and that the Company&#8217;s common stock will commence trading on a post-split basis beginning on May 24, 2018. The Company received the requisite stockholder approval for the reverse stock split on May 18, 2018. The new CUSIP number for the Company&#8217;s common stock will be 23283K402.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:13pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:0%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">The reverse stock split automatically combined every ten shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock into one issued and outstanding share without any change in the par value of the shares. Following the reverse stock split, the number of outstanding shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock was proportionally reduced from approximately 61.6 million to approximately 6.2 million. </p>
<p style="margin-bottom:10pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:0%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Any fractional shares of the Company&#8217;s common stock that would have otherwise resulted from the reverse stock split were rounded up to the nearest whole share. Outstanding equity awards and the shares available for future grant under the Company&#8217;s Amended and Restated 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, 2014 Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan and 2015 New Employee Incentive Plan were proportionately reduced (rounded down to the nearest whole share), and the exercise prices of outstanding equity awards were proportionately increased (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) to give effect to the reverse stock split. The Company&#8217;s common stock will continue to trade on a post-split basis under the trading symbol &#8220;CYTX&#8221;.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:10pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:0%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">Additionally, the Company&#8217;s Series S warrants issued in connection with its rights offering that closed in November 2017 will become tradeable as of the commencement of trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on May 24, 2018 under the Nasdaq ticker symbol &#8220;CYTXZ.&#8221;</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:13pt;margin-top:0pt;text-indent:0%;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">As previously announced, Cytori is required to evidence compliance with Nasdaq&#8217;s listing minimum bid or closing price requirement by September 4, 2018. Although Cytori expects that the reverse stock split will enable the Company to comply with the Nasdaq listing and minimum bid price requirement, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain such compliance. Delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market could have a material adverse effect on the Company&#8217;s business and on the trading of its common stock.</p>
