NOT FOR RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN THE UNITED STATES, THE UNITED KINGDOM, AUSTRALIA, JAPAN, CANADA, NEW ZEALAND, SOUTH AFRICA, HONG KONG, SWITZERLAND, SINGAPORE, SOUTH KOREA, RUSSIA, BELARUS OR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE THE RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION OF THIS PRESS RELEASE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL OR REQUIRE ADDITIONAL REGISTRATION OR OTHER MEASURES BEYOND THOSE REQUIRED BY SWEDISH OR NORWEGIAN LAW.

On November 20, 2023, an extraordinary general meeting (the "EGM") resolved to authorise the Board of Directors in Genetic Analysis AS ("GA" or the "Company") to decide on a previously announced subsequent offering with gross proceeds of up to approximately NOK 9 million and 11,392,405 new shares with preferential rights for existing shareholders (the "Subsequent Offering") by granting an authorisation to increase to Company's share capital by issuing new shares in connection with the Subsequent Offering. The Board of Directors, resolved on November 30, 2023, on the record date, the subscription period and the terms and conditions for the Subsequent Offering and today, December 8, 2023, the Company communicates the final number of subscription rights received per existing share. Eligible shareholders will receive 0,69761 subscription rights per existing share registered as held on the record date December 7, 2023. One subscription right gives preferential right to subscribe for, and be allocated, one share in the Subsequent Offering.

Shareholders in the Company as of December 5, 2023, as registered in the Company's shareholders' register with Euronext Securities Oslo on December 7, 2023 (the record date), will receive tradable subscription rights that, subject to any restrictions under applicable law, give preferential rights to subscribe for, and be allocated, offer shares in the Subsequent Offering in proportion to their shareholding in the Company on the record date, except for shareholders (i) who were allocated shares in the Company's directed issue announced on November 2, 2023, who will only receive subscription rights for any net increase in registered holdings of shares in the Company between November 6, 2023, and December 7, 2023, caused by acquisitions of existing shares, and/or (ii) who are resident in a jurisdiction where the Subsequent Offering would be unlawful or would (in jurisdictions other than Sweden) require any prospectus, registration, filing or similar document or action. One subscription right gives preferential right to subscribe for, and be allocated, one share in the Subsequent Offering. 0,69761 subscription rights will be received per existing share registered as held by eligible shareholders on the record date. The aggregate number of subscription rights granted to each eligible shareholder will be rounded down to the nearest whole subscription right.

The subscription period runs from December 11, 2023 to December 22, 2023 at 12:00 hours (CET).

Trading in subscription rights will take place on Spotlight Stock Market during the period from December 11, 2023, to and including December 20, 2023 at 17:30 hours (CET) under ticker code "GEAN TR". The subscription rights will hence only be tradable during part of the subscription period in the Subsequent Offering. Subscription rights that are (i) not used to subscribe for shares in the Subsequent Offering prior to expiry of the subscription period on December 22, 2023 at 12:00 hours (CET) or (ii) sold before December 20, 2023 at 17:30 hours (CET), will lapse without compensation to the holder and thus be without value.

Shares subscribed in the Subsequent Offering may not be traded until the registration of the share capital increase with the Norwegian Business Register (No. Foretaksregisteret) and the shares have been delivered. Accordingly, allotment, registration and trading will not be made in any securities through Euronext Securities Oslo corresponding to Swedish paid and subscribed shares (BTA).

Completion of the Subsequent Offering is subject to (i) the Company's board of directors formally resolving to increase the Company's share capital and issue the offer shares in the Subsequent Offering to the subscribers pursuant to the authorisation from the EGM after the expiry of the subscription period and (ii) payment of the aggregate subscription amount by all subscribers in the Subsequent Offering and registration of the share capital increase relating to the Subsequent Offering with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises.

If the aggregate subscription amount in the Subsequent Offering is not received by the Company on time or at all, the Subsequent Offering may be delayed or not completed. If the Subsequent Offering is not completed, all subscription rights will lapse without value and subscriptions for, and allocations of, shares in the Subsequent Offering that have been made will be disregarded and any payments of shares made will be returned to the subscribers without interest or any other compensation. The lapsing of subscription rights will be without prejudice to the validity of any trades in subscription rights, and investors will not receive any refund or compensation in respect of subscription rights purchased in the market.

Advisors
In connection with the Subsequent Offering, Sedermera Corporate Finance AB (www.sedermera.se (https://www.sedermera.se)) is appointed Swedish financial advisor and Advokatfirmaet Wiersholm AS is the Company's Norwegian legal advisor.

Forward-looking statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's intentions, beliefs, or current expectations about and targets for the Company's and the Group's future results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, performance, prospects, anticipated growth, strategies and opportunities and the markets in which the Company and the Group operates. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and may be identified by words such as "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intend", "may", "plan", "estimate", "will", "should", "could", "aim" or "might", or, in each case, their negative, or similar expressions. The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurances that they will materialize or prove to be correct. Because these statements are based on assumptions or estimates and are subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results or outcome could differ materially from those set out in the forward-looking statements as a result of many factors. Such risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important factors could cause actual events to differ materially from the expectations expressed or implied in this release by such forward-looking statements. The Company does not guarantee that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements in this press release are free from errors and readers of this press release should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements in this press release.

Information to distributors
Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together, the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the shares in the Company have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that such shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "EU Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the EU Target Market Assessment, Distributors should note that: the price of the shares in the Company may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the shares in the Company offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the shares in the Company is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The EU Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Subsequent Offering.

For the avoidance of doubt, the EU Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the shares in the Company.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the shares in the Company and determining appropriate distribution channels.
