on Form 8-K of Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on
May 20, 2019 (the &ldquo;Original Form 8-K&rdquo;). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of the Company&rsquo;s
2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 16, 2019 (the &ldquo;2019 Annual Meeting&rdquo;). The purpose of this amendment
is to disclose the Company&rsquo;s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes to approve
the compensation of the Company&rsquo;s named executive officers (&ldquo;Say-On-Pay&rdquo;). No other changes have been made to
the Original Form 8-K.</P>

advisory vote on the frequency of future Say-On-Pay votes held at the 2019 Annual Meeting, 1,922,276 votes were cast for one year,
172,094 votes were cast for two years, 11,545,087 votes were cast for three years, 344,686 votes abstained and there were 16,891,723
broker non-votes. The Company has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined it will hold future Say-On-Pay
votes on a triennial basis until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of Say-On-Pay. The next advisory vote
on the frequency of Say-On-Pay is required to occur not later than the Company&rsquo;s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.</P>
