The number of shares that can be issued in a single tranche may not exceed the lower of (a) 400,000 shares and (b) 100% of the average of the daily trading volume during the five trading days immediately preceding the Company's request.

The subscription price to be paid by Yorkville for each share issued under the SEPA is equal to 95% of the average of the volume-weighted average price of the Medigene share for each of the five trading days following the advance request by Medigene.

This agreement has a term of 36 months from the date of signing. Yorkville has also entered into a share lending agreement with DJSMontana Holding GmbH, the holding company of Prof. Dr. Dolores Schendel, the Company's Chief Scientific Officer, pursuant to which DJSMontana Holding GmbH shall lend 400,000 Medigene shares to Yorkville in order to support the transaction.

Medigene intends to use the capital raised for the further development of the Company's programs.
