Lyon, France – June 25, 2010– Flamel Technologies S.A.
(NASDAQ: FLML)
today announced the results of its annual meeting held on June 25,
2010. The election of each member of the Board of Directors of the
Company for a further one-year term was approved by holders of more than 98% of
the Company’s shares. Each additional resolution proposed favorably
by management at the meeting was approved overwhelmingly.
As a
consequence, shareholders re-elected Flamel’s Board of Directors. Mr.
Elie Vannier, former
Senior Advisor and Operating Partner at Oaktree Capital Management, will
continue to serve as the Company’s non-Executive Chairman. Also
re-elected to the Company’s Board of Directors were: Mr. Lodewijk J.R. deVink,

former Senior Vice President: Head of Global Development for AstraZeneca; Mr.
Frederic Lemoine, Chairman of the Executive Board of Wendel, Mr. John
Vogelstein, former President of Warburg Pincus; and Mr. Stephen H. Willard,
Flamel’s Chief Executive Officer.
“We are
pleased to have the continued support of our shareholders,” said Mr. Elie
Vannier, non-Executive Chairman of Flamel. “Flamel has expanded its
base of partnerships with leading pharmaceutical companies over the past
year. We now are working with eight of the top twenty-five
pharmaceutical companies in the world on projects that involve both novel and
already-marketed molecules. Our scientists have
made important advances on both the Medusa and Micropump technology
platforms. The diversified pipeline of projects we are pursuing is
advancing strongly and we are well-positioned to leverage the advantages that
both platforms bring to our partners with respect to safety and efficacy, as
well as greater convenience for patients and their caregivers. As a
result, we believe in the coming year we will achieve important milestones with
our partners and deliver strong growth to our shareholders.”
