• The Exela Special Meeting of Stockholders is scheduled for Thursday, May 4, 2023.
• The reverse stock split will facilitate continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.

IRVING, Texas, April 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exela Technologies, Inc. (“Exela” or “the Company”) (NASDAQ: XELA, XELAP), a leader in business processing automation, encourages stockholders to vote “For” the amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split, as further described in the Company’s proxy statement filed on March 21, 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "amendment" or the "reverse stock split"). 

With the special meeting almost a week away, Exela stockholders are urged to vote online or by telephone to ensure their shares are represented at the special meeting. It is critical that stockholders vote, no matter how many shares they own.  

Our board strongly encourages that stockholders approve the amendment to facilitate the continued listing of our equity securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market. It is our understanding that the current market price of our Common Stock may affect its acceptability to certain institutional investors, professional investors and other members of the investing public. It is also our understanding that many brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers.

Stockholders can vote by following the easy instructions on the proxy card.  If you have already submitted a proxy, you may change your vote prior to the special meeting by voting again using the same materials. Only your latest dated vote counts. If you hold at Robinhood, look for an email from Proxydocs.com, and for all other stockholders, check for an email from Proxyvote.com.
