Also known as Bonet, Bonitus was born in Auvergne, France.

He resigned the See because of doubts about the validity of his election, led a life of holiness as a hermit at the Benedictine Abbey of Manglieu at Clermont, and died at Lyons while returning from his pilgrimage to Rome. His feast day is January 15th.
