Robert Taub, Chairman of the Nyxoah Board said: „We are extremely
pleased to welcome Cochlear as a new investor. Their board-level
participation will accelerate Nyxoah’s vision of becoming a leader in
OSA therapy.“

Jan Janssen, Chief Technology Officer of Cochlear said: „Cochlear
actively monitors the market for novel technologies and implantable
devices that over the long term may leverage its core business.
Nyxoah’s minimally invasive solution presents an attractive
alternative for patients with compliance or intolerance issues in
respect of existing therapies. We look forward to working with
Nyxoah.“

Nyxoah recently completed the BLAST-OSA (BiLAteral Hypoglossal Nerve
Stimulation for Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea) clinical study,
an essential milestone for its CE marking dossier already submitted
to the European regulatory body.

„Patients from the BLAST OSA study show a major improvement in sleep
apnea symptoms including a significant reduction of ODI (Oxygen
Desaturation Index) and AHI (Apnea Hypopnea Index),“ said Enrique
Vega, Chief Executive Officer of Nyxoah S.A. „The Nyxoah therapy was
also associated with high patient compliance and improvements in
patient Quality of Life. We look forward to publishing the clinical
results in a leading medical journal during 2019.“

The additional financing will be used to initiate post-CE Mark
European market development activities and to work toward
Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) with the US Food and Drug
Administration (FDA).
