For Immediate Release
Flamel Technologies Announces Results of Annual Meeting
Lyon,
France June 12, 2006 Flamel Technologies S.A.
(NASDAQ: FLML) today
announced the results of its annual meeting held on June 12, 2006. Each resolution proposed
favorably by management at the meeting, including the nomination of each director for a new
one-year term, was approved by holders of approximately 95% or more of the Companys shares.
As a consequence, shareholders re-elected Flamels Board of Directors. Mr. Elie Vannier, the Chief
Operating Officer of Grandvision SA, will continue to serve as the Companys non-Executive
Chairman. Also re-elected to the Companys Board of Directors were: Mr. Cor Boonstra, former
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Philips Electronics NV; Mr. Lodewijk J.R. deVink, former
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Warner Lambert; Mr. Frederic Lemoine, Chairman of the
Supervisory Board of AREVA, Mr. John Vogelstein, Vice Chairman of Warburg Pincus; and Mr. Stephen
H. Willard, Flamels Chief Executive Officer.
We are delighted to have the strong support of our shareholders, as evidenced by the results of
this annual meeting, said Mr. Elie Vannier, non-Executive Chairman of Flamel. It represents a
strong departure from the turmoil of a year ago. We believe our future is bright under the
executive leadership of our CEO, Stephen Willard, as we await the launch of Coreg-CR, work to
expand on existing partnerships and develop new ones, as well as continue to enhance our two
innovative drug delivery platforms.
The Company has 23,808,950 shares issued or outstanding. Votes representing 23,697,322 shares, or
99.5% were tendered.
