Zurich, 26 August 2024
Invitation to the Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of NLS Pharmaceutics
Ltd., Zurich, Switzerland
The board of directors of NLS Pharmaceutics Ltd.
(the "Board of Directors"), with registered office at The Circle 6, 8058 Zurich, Switzerland (the "Company")
is pleased to invite you to the extraordinary shareholders' meeting of the Company. The shareholders' meeting will be held as follows:
The agenda items to be voted on, the voting instructions
and the appendices mentioned herein are provided below:
The agenda items and proposals of the Board
of Directors are as follows:
Explanation: According
to the Swiss Corporate Law, by amending the articles of association, the shareholders' meeting may authorize the Board of Directors to
increase the share capital within a period of not more than five years. Every time an ordinary capital increase is carried out the capital
band (Kapitalband) will automatically be deleted. Thus, a reintroduction of the capital band is necessary. Such capital band may
not exceed one-half of the existing share capital. The Company intends to conduct an ordinary capital increase at a previous extraordinary
shareholders' meeting, thus resulting in a new share capital of CHF 937,600 ("New Share Capital"). It being understood
that the calculation of the capital band for this invitation is therefore based on the New Share Capital. In case, for whatever reason,
the actual share capital of the Company on the date of this extraordinary shareholders' meeting deviates from the New Share Capital, the
Board of Directors may proceed with this extraordinary shareholders' meeting and the agenda items set forth herein based on the actual
registered share capital of the Company and the Board of Directors may propose the implementation of a capital band based thereon.
of Directors proposes to implement the capital band in article 3a of the articles of association of the Company ("Articles")
as provided below. The newly introduced article 3a reads as follows:
Art. 3a - Capital Band
The Company has a capital band
with an upper limit of CHF 1,406,400. The board of directors is authorized at any time until 18 September 2029 to increase the share
capital by a maximum of CHF 468,800 once or several times and in any amount. The capital increase may be effected by issuing up to
23,440,000 fully paid registered shares with a par value of CHF 0.02 each up to the upper limit of the capital band.
If the share capital increases
due to a conditional capital increase pursuant to article 3b or 3c of these Articles of Incorporation, the upper limit of the capital
band shall increase automatically in accordance with the amount of the increase of the share capital.
The board of directors shall issue
