To the shareholders of FluoGuide A/S Til aktionærerne i FluoGuide A/S (Dansk version nedenfor)
The board of directors hereby convenes an extraordinary general meeting of FluoGuide A/S, CVR no. 39 29 64 38, (the "Company"), to be held on: Monday 17 February 2020 at 11:00 (CET) at the Company"s premises, Ole Maaløes Vej 3, DK-2200 Copenhagen N, Denmark, room M2 Agenda --- Items on the agenda, including complete proposals Item 1: Authorisation to the board of directors to increase the share capital at market price or at a rate discounted to the market price without pre-emption rights for existing shareholders The board of directors of the Company has, subject to authorisation from the general meeting, decided to conduct a directed share issue of approx. MDKK 11.6 (before issue costs of approx. MDKK 0.5). Participants in the directed share issue is, amongst others, the institutional investors A/S Arbejdernes Landsbank and Linc AB, a Swedish based life science investor with a long list of successful investments. Accordingly, in order to implement the contemplated directed issue of shares the board of directors proposes that the general meeting increases the existing authorisation to the board of directors in article 3.2.2 of the articles of association to increase the Company"s share capital in one or more issues of new shares without pre-emption rights for the Company"s existing shareholders by up to nominally DKK 223,099.40 from previously nominally DKK 81,000.00. According to the existing authorisation the capital increase shall be made at market price. The subscription price for the contemplated issue of shares is DKK 5.20 per share which corresponds to the market-based price determined by the board of directors based on a twenty-day average volume-weighted price for the Company"s shares prior to the board of directors" decision to conduct a directed share issue with a discount of approx. 10 percent. In order to take account for the discount to the market price it is proposed to amend the existing authorisation to the effect that the authorisation also allows for capital increases at a rate discounted to the market price. The capital increase shall take place by way of cash contribution. Adoption of the proposal will result in an updated clause 3.2.2 of the articles of association of the Company with the following wording: As VP Investor Services A/S has changed name to VP Services A/S, it is proposed that clauses 2.5, 5.9, 5.11 of the articles of association will be changed accordingly. Item 2: Documents for the general meeting shall in the future only be prepared in English The board of directors of the Company proposed that in the future documents prepared for the general meeting shall be prepared in English only, ref. section 110(6) of the Danish Companies Act. --- Majority requirements The proposal on item 2 of the agenda shall be adopted by simple majority of votes.

Questions from the shareholders Personal data Copenhagen, 31 January 2020 FluoGuide A/S -------- Dansk version: INDKALDELSE TIL GENERALFORSAMLING Til aktionærerne i FluoGuide A/S Bestyrelsen indkalder herved til ekstraordinær generalforsamling i FluoGuide A/S, CVR-nr. 39 29 64 38, ("Selskabet"), der afholdes: Mandag, den 17. februar 2020, kl. 11.00 på Selskabets adresse Ole Maaløes Vej 3, 2200 København, lokale M2. Dagsorden 1. Forslag om bemyndigelse til bestyrelsen til at forhøje selskabskapitalen til markedspris eller med en rabat i forhold til markedsprisen uden fortegningsret for de eksisterende kapitalejere. 2. Forslag om at dokumenter til brug for generalforsamlingen i fremtiden kun skal forelægge på engelsk. Dagsorden med fuldstændige forslag Ad punkt 1: Forslag om bemyndigelse til bestyrelsen til at forhøje selskabskapitalen til markedspris eller med en rabat i forhold til markedsprisen uden fortegningsret for de eksisterende kapitalejere Selskabets bestyrelse har med forbehold for at generalforsamlingen bemyndiger bestyrelsen hertil besluttet at gennemføre en rettet emission af aktier på ca. MDKK 11,6 (før emissionsomkostninger på ca. MDKK 0,5). Deltagere i den rettede emission er blandt andet de institutionelle investorer A / S Arbejdernes Landsbank og Linc AB, som er en svenskbaseret life science investor, der har gennemfør en lang liste af succesrige investeringer. For at gennemføre den påtænkte rettede emission af aktier foreslår bestyrelsen, at generalforsamlingen forhøjer den eksisterende bemyndigelse til bestyrelsen i vedtægternes punkt 3.2.2 til at forhøje Selskabets aktiekapital ad én eller flere gange ved udstedelse af aktier uden fortegningsret for Selskabets eksisterende aktionærer til nominelt DKK 223.099,40 fra tidligere nominelt DKK 81.000,00. I henhold til den eksisterende bemyndigelse skal kapitalforhøjelser ske til markedspris. Tegningskursen for den påtænkte udstedelse af aktier er DKK 5,20 pr. aktie, hvilket svarer til den markedsbaserede kurs, der er fastlagt af bestyrelsen baseret på en tyve-dages gennemsnitlig volumenvægtet kurs for Selskabets aktier forud for bestyrelsens beslutning om at gennemføre en rettet emission med en rabat på ca. 10 %. For at tage højde for rabatten i forhold til markedsprisen foreslås det at ændre den eksisterende bemyndigelse, således at bemyndigelsen også giver mulighed for at gennemføre kapitalforhøjelser til en kurs med en rabat i forhold til markedsprisen. Kapitalforhøjelse skal ske ved kontant betaling. Med de foreslåede ændringer vil vedtægternes pkt. 3.2.2 have følgende ordlyd: Da VP Investor Services A / S har ændret navn til VP Services A / S, foreslås det, at vedtægternes pkt. 2.5, 5.9, 5.11 ændres i overensstemmelse hermed.

FluoGuide A/S (Spotlight Stock Market: FLUO:SS) provides solutions for maximizing surgical outcome through intelligent targeting. FluoGuide’s first product FG001 increases precision in cancer surgery by lighting up the cancer and its invasive growth into the surrounding tissue. FG001 is expected to reduce suffering for the patients and increase the likelihood of cure. It can also reduce costs for the health care system for the benefit of society. FluoGuide focuses on demonstrating the effect of FG001 in patients by conducting a human proof-of-concept clinical trial and expects to announce the first result of this study during first half of 2020.
FG001, FluoGuide’s first product, lights up the cancer and its invasive growth into the surrounding tissue. It helps the surgeon remove the entire tumor during surgery and increases the chance for complete cure of the patient. The task for the surgeon is simply to "turn the lights on and see the entire tumor". The solution helps surgeons remove a minimal amount of normal tissue while also reducing the risk of leaving cancer tissue behind. This reduces the suffering of the patient and increases the likelihood of cure, and also reduces costs for the health care system. FG001 is currently prepared for a proof-of-concept clinical study.
