Nyxoah Has Signed a EUR37.5 Million Loan Facility Agreement with the European
Investment Bank

Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium - July 3, 2024, 12:30pm CET / 6:30am ET - Nyxoah
SA (Euronext Brussels/Nasdaq: NYXH) ("Nyxoah" or the "Company"), a medical
technology company focused on the development and commercialization of
innovative solutions to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea ("OSA"), today
announced that it has signed a EUR37.5 million loan facility agreement with
the European Investment Bank ("EIB"). The agreement is backed by the
European Commission's InvestEU program. Nyxoah plans to use the funding for
research and development, and for scaling-up its manufacturing capacity to
meet demand in Europe and the U.S.

The EUR37.5 million facility is divided into three tranches: EUR10 million for
the first tranche ("Tranche A"), EUR13.75 million for the second tranche
("Tranche B") and EUR13.75 million for the third tranche ("Tranche C").
Disbursement under the various tranches is subject to certain conditions.
Tranche A carries an annual 5% cash and 5% capitalized interest rate, and
features a five-year bullet repayment schedule. The various tranches do not
contain revenue or liquidity covenants.

In connection with the loan facility agreement, and as a condition to
drawdown thereunder, the Company also intends to enter into a "synthetic
warrant agreement" with the EIB. Under the intended synthetic warrant
agreement, in consideration for the facility, in connection with each
tranche of the facility, the EIB will be granted "synthetic warrants" with a
duration of 20 years. The number and strike price of the synthetic warrants
will be calculated based on tranche specific formulas provided for in the
synthetic warrant agreement. The synthetic warrants can be exercised as of
the maturity date of the relevant tranche of the facility or, in exceptional
situations, earlier. Such synthetic warrants will entitle the EIB to receive
from the Company a cash consideration equal to the 20-day volume weighted
average price of a share in the Company on the stock exchange, reduced by
the applicable strike price per synthetic warrant, and multiplied by the
number of synthetic warrants that the EIB exercises. In connection with
Tranche A, it is expected that the EIB will be granted 468,384 synthetic
warrants with a strike price of EUR8,11 that the EIB can exercise after the
maturity of Tranche A (5 years) or, in exceptional situations, earlier.

Since certain provisions of the loan facility agreement and the synthetic
warrant agreement are dependent on a change of control, those provisions
will be submitted for approval to a shareholders' meeting of the Company in
accordance with article 7:151 of the Belgian Companies and Associations
Code.

EIB Vice-President Robert de Groot said: "Belgium stands at the forefront of
innovation in the area of life sciences and med tech. As the EIB, we take
pride in supporting this thriving industry and fostering growth. Nyxoah,
with its groundbreaking approach, is making a valuable contribution. We are
eager to see the company progressing, benefitting patients worldwide."

Olivier Taelman, CEO of Nyxoah, commented: "We are excited and grateful for
the support and confidence in our cutting-edge technology shown by the
European Investment Bank. This loan follows our recent successful equity
offering where we raised EUR48.5 million, providing us a combined access to
over EUR80 million in growth capital. This will aid in the commercialization
of Genio in Europe and in the U.S., if approved, while helping increase
production capacity and sustain innovation."
