On November 12, 2015, the Board of Directors of AmpliPhi Biosciences Corporation (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code of Conduct”) that applies to all of the Company’s directors, officers and employees (“covered personnel”).

The revisions to the Code of Conduct did not relate to or result in any waiver, explicit or implicit, of any provision of the Code of Conduct applicable to the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer, controller or persons performing similar functions, or any other officer of the Company.

The foregoing description of the amended and restated Code of Conduct does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such documents, a copy of which is attached to this report as Exhibit 14.1.
