Genovis’ board of directors resolves to issue new shares and announces Extraordinary General Meeting


Sales of products from Genovis’ protein engineering portfolio have shown a
steady increase of about 70-100 percent per revolving twelve months over a two
-year period. Genovis aims to achieve a positive cash flow in 2014 from parent
company operations. Funding of about SEK 10 million is needed to achieve this
goal and to provide the Company with flexibility, sustainability and decision
-making capacity in the expansion of the sales organization.

In 2013 Genovis streamlined operations in the parent company by placing the nano
portfolio, which primarily focuses on new contrast agents intended for both the
preclinical and clinical markets, in the wholly owned subsidiary GeccoDots AB
(formerly Eijdo research AB). The Board of Directors resolved to keep GeccoDots
as a wholly owned subsidiary for the foreseeable future and Genovis will raise
funds to actively run the subsidiary in 2014-2015. The cost is expected to be
about SEK 14 million and is included in the 2014 budget. The project, which
focuses on imaging of lymph nodes in tumor diseases and stem cell tracking, will
continue to be pursued to the extent that the subsidiary receives financing,
which is expected through research support and other external financing.

To achieve the above objective, Genovis’ Board of Directors, subject to
resolution by the Extraordinary General Meeting on November 19, resolved to
carry out a rights issue to existing shareholders in which three (3) existing
shares entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) issued share at a price four
Swedish kronor and fifty öre (SEK 4.50). As a result of this decision share
capital could increase by a maximum of SEK 2,104,100.80 through the issuance of
up to 5,260,252 shares. Following the completed rights issue, share capital will
amount to a maximum of SEK 8,416,403.60 and the number of shares to
21,041,009.The Company will raise about SEK 23.7 million before issue expenses,
which are expected to be SEK 1 million. The issue will have a dilutive effect of
25 percent on the holdings of those who do not subscribe to the rights issue for
their full stake.

Shareholders have committed in writing to subscribe for 36 percent of the rights
issue and external shareholders have committed to underwrite the remaining 64
percent.

In addition, the Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General
Meeting resolve to authorize the Board, provided that the rights issue for a
maximum of 5,260,252 shares is fully subscribed, on one or more occasions, to
decide on the issuance of a total of a maximum of 1,350,000 shares in the
Company with or with or without preferential rights for the Company’s
shareholders. The subscription price will be four Swedish kronor and fifty öre
(SEK 4.50), payment for subscribed shares shall be made in cash, and the Board
will have the option to permit payment by set-off retroactively. This
authorization will be valid for the period ending on January 20, 2014. The
reason for any deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights is to be able to
take advantage of attracting interest from potential underwriters within the
framework for issued underwriting guarantees.

Item 7a resolution on new share issue

The Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolve
to conduct a rights issue to existing shareholders in which three (3) existing
shares entitle the holder to subscription for one (1) new share at a
subscription price of SEK 4.50/ share. As a result of this resolution share
capital could increase by a maximum of SEK 2,104,100.80 through the issuance of
up to 5,260,252 shares. In the event that all shares are not subscribed for on
the basis of subscription rights, allocation of shares shall be made within the
scope of the maximum amount of the share issue, at which the Board shall
allocate the shares firstly to those who have subscribed for shares on basis of
subscription rights, pro rata in relation to their subscription on the basis of
subscription rights, secondly to those who have declared their interest to
subscribe for shares without subscription rights, pro rata in relation to their
declared interest and last to guarantors in proportion to their guarantee
undertakings.

Following the completed rights issue, share capital will amount to a maximum of
SEK 8,416,403.60 and the number of shares to 21,041,009. The company will raise
about SEK 23.7 million before issue expenses, which are expected to be SEK one
(1) million. The issue will have a dilutive effect of 25 percent on the holdings
of those who do not subscribe to the rights issue for their full stake.

Timetable for rights issue

Nov. 25, 2013   Last trading day for the Genovis share including subscription
rights for the new issue.

Nov. 28, 2013   Record date for participation in the new issue; shareholders
registered in Genovis’ share register on this day receive subscription rights
for participation in the new issue.

Dec. 2 – Dec. 16, 2013   Subscription period. Subscription with preferential
rights through cash payment during the subscription period. Shareholders may
report their intention to subscribe throughout the subscription period.

Item 7b. Resolution on overallotment option

The Board of Directors proposes that the Extraordinary General Meeting resolve
to authorize the Board, provided that the rights issue for a maximum of
5,260,252 shares is fully subscribed, on one or more occasions, to decide on the
issuance of a total of a maximum of 1,350,000 shares in the Company with or with
or without preferential rights for the Company’s shareholders. The subscription
price will be four Swedish kronor and fifty öre (SEK 4.50), payment for
subscribed shares shall be made in cash, and the Board will have the option to
permit set-offs retroactively. This authorization will be valid for the period
ending on January 20, 2014.

The reason for any deviation from shareholders’ preferential rights is to be
able to take advantage of attracting interest from potential underwriters within
the framework for issued underwriting guarantees.

For a valid resolution under item 7b, the Meeting's resolution must be supported
by shareholders representing at least two thirds of both the voting rights and
the shares represented at the Meeting.
