The Certificate of Amendment provides that on November 27, 2024, every 200 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock will automatically be combined, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, into one share of Common Stock.

The Common Stock will begin trading on a Split-adjusted basis on The Nasdaq Capital Market when the market opens on November 27, 2024. The trading symbol for the Common Stock will remain “ELAB” after the Split. The Common Stock will be assigned a new CUSIP number (28622K 203) following the Split.
The Company will adjust the number of shares available for future grant under its equity incentive plan and will also adjust the number of outstanding awards, the exercise price per share of outstanding stock options and other terms of outstanding awards issued to reflect the effects of the Split.

(Pursuant to Sections 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware)
Elevai Labs Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware does hereby certify:
FIRST: That the Board of Directors of Elevai Labs Inc. duly adopted resolutions setting forth a proposed amendment of the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of said corporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), declaring said amendments to be advisable and calling a meeting of the stockholders of said corporation for consideration thereof. The resolution setting forth the proposed amendment is as follows:
“RESOLVED, that the Certificate of Incorporation of this corporation be amended by adding paragraph 4 to Section 4.2 of Article Fourth as follows:
“4. Effective as of 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on November 27, 2024 (the “Effective Time”), each 200 shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the Corporation or the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one share of Common Stock without increasing or decreasing the par value of each share of Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and, in lieu thereof, upon surrender after the Effective Time of a certificate or book entry position which formerly represented shares of Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, any person who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, following the Effective Time, shall be entitled to receive one whole share. The Reverse Stock Split shall occur whether or not the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock are surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent. Each certificate or book entry position that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Common Stock shall thereafter represent the number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Common Stock represented by such certificate or book entry position has been combined, subject to the right to receive a whole share in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock as set forth above.”
SECOND: That thereafter, the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action by written consent, approved of the proposed amendment on August 12, 2024 pursuant to Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

Exhibit 99.1
Elevai Labs Inc. Announces Reverse Stock Split to Maintain Nasdaq Listing Compliance
November 22nd, 2024
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Nov. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Elevai Labs Inc. (NASDAQ: ELAB) (Elevai” or the “Company”) announced today it will implement a 1-for-200 reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”) of its common stock, which will be effective at midnight on November 27, 2024. This initiative aligns with the Company’s efforts to meet Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share under Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
Key Details of the Reverse Stock Split:
– Conversion Ratio: Every 200 shares of issued and outstanding common stock will be automatically consolidated into one share, with no action required from shareholders.
– Fractional Shares: Shareholders entitled to fractional shares will receive one full share for each fractional portion.
– Updated Stock Identifier: While the trading symbol remains “ELAB”, the common stock now carries a new CUSIP number (28622K 203).
– Equity Adjustments: Outstanding stock awards, options, and the equity incentive plan have been adjusted proportionally to reflect the new share structure.
Purpose of the Reverse Stock Split:
The Reverse Stock Split is a critical step in ensuring compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements, allowing Elevai to maintain its presence on the Nasdaq Capital Market. A continued listing enhances the Company’s visibility, strengthens investor confidence, and positions Elevai for future growth.
Impact on Shareholders:
– No Immediate Action Required: Shareholders holding shares through a broker or in “street name” will see their holdings updated automatically.
– Certificate Holders: Shareholders with physical certificates can exchange them, if desired, through VStock Transfer, LLC, which will provide detailed instructions.
– Share Value: The Reverse Stock Split does not impact the overall value of shareholder equity; it only reduces the number of shares outstanding while proportionally adjusting the share price.
Impact on our Common Stock:
– Post Reverse Stock Split there will be approximately 3.07 million shares of common stock issued and outstanding
Looking Ahead:
“The reverse stock split is a required measure to preserve Elevai’s Nasdaq listing and set the stage for our continued progress in innovation and shareholder value creation,” said Graydon Bensler, Chief Executive Officer of Elevai. “We are optimistic about the future and committed to executing our growth strategy.”
For additional information, please refer to Elevai’s full Form 8-K filing available regarding the Reverse Stock Split, filed on November 22, 2024, on the SEC’s website, or contact Elevai directly at [email protected].
