NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 17, 2024

Dear Stockholder:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Bone Biologics Corporation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Annual Meeting”), to be held at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, September 17, 2024 at Bone Biologics Corporation offices, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803. Stockholders may also listen to the Annual Meeting via telephone at 520-525-8845. Directions to our corporate headquarters are available at www.bonebiologics.com.

The Annual Meeting is being held for the following purposes, which are more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement:

Our Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on July 19, 2024 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Only our stockholders of record at the close of business on that date will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.

We are pleased to take advantage of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s “e-proxy” rules that allow public companies to furnish proxy materials to stockholders via the Internet. The “e-proxy” rules remove the requirement for public companies to automatically send stockholders a full, printed copy of proxy materials and allow them instead to deliver to their stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice and Access Card”) and to provide online access to the documents. The Notice and Access Card contains instructions on how to access those documents and to cast your vote via the Internet. The Notice and Access Card also contains instructions on how to request a paper copy of our proxy materials and our 2023 Annual Report. We believe that this process allows us to provide our stockholders with the information they need on a timelier basis, while reducing the environmental impact and lowering the costs of printing and distributing our proxy materials.

We made this proxy statement and our 2023 Annual Report to stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which includes our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, available to stockholders on or about August 8, 2024.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 17, 2024:

The proxy statement, proxy card and 2023 Annual Report to stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 are available at the following website: www.bonebiologics.com/investor-relation. These documents are also available to any stockholder who wishes to receive a paper copy by calling 866-870-3684, visitingwww.investorelections.com/BBLG or emailing paper@investorelections.com.

By Order of the Board of Directors,

/s/ Don Hankey

IF GIVEN, YOU MAY REVOKE YOUR PROXY BY FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE PROXY STATEMENT AND PROXY/VOTING INSTRUCTION CARD.
