Nordic Nanovector Launches Dedicated Area on its Website in Norwegian for Information on the Proposed Merger with APIM Therapeutics

Oslo, Norway, 25 November 2022

Nordic Nanovector ASA (OSE: NANOV) ("Nordic Nanovector" or the "Company") has
today launched a new dedicated area on its website (www.nordicnanovector.com)
with information in Norwegian for shareholders relating to its proposed merger
with APIM Therapeutics ("APIM").

The new area includes a recording of the webcast and Question & Answer session,
which was held for interested parties, including shareholders, on 24 November.
During the webcast, shareholders were provided with a more-detailed presentation
of the proposed merger with APIM and were given the opportunity to ask their
specific questions regarding the merger plans.

Malene Brondberg, Interim CEO and CFO of Nordic Nanovector, says: "We are happy
that so many shareholders attended the webcast we hosted yesterday, where we
provided more background on the proposed merger with APIM Therapeutics. After a
week of highly productive meetings between the Nordic Nanovector and APIM teams,
our confidence in a merged company is even stronger than before. Our largest
shareholder Folketrygdfondet confirms that it supports the Board's proposal. We
are certain that there is no better alternative, and we encourage all
shareholders to vote in favour of the merger proposal."

The proposed merger, which is backed by the Boards of Directors of both
companies, is the result of an extensive review conducted by Nordic Nanovector
in conjunction with Carnegie Investment Bank ("Carnegie") that explored a range
of strategic options for the Company. This review included carefully evaluating
a potential stand-alone strategy for Nordic Nanovector, which was deemed not to
be a viable option by the Board.

After evaluating 25 possible merger and acquisition opportunities, the Company
determined that the merger transaction with APIM represents the best and most
exciting opportunity for all of Nordic Nanovector's shareholders given, among
other things, the significant and broad potential of ATX-101, a novel anti
-cancer peptide currently in Phase 2 trials. In addition, the combined company
will have the discovery and development expertise to potentially generate
multiple value-enhancing new drug candidates from its technology platforms.
