Important Information About the Merger and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed Merger, the Company intends to file a proxy statement. The preliminary and definitive proxy statements and other relevant documents will be sent or given to the stockholders of the Company as of the record date established for voting on the proposed Merger and will contain important information about the proposed Merger and related matters. Before making any voting decision, investors and security holders of the Company are urged to read, when available, the preliminary proxy statement and any amendments thereto and, once available, the definitive proxy statement in connection with the Company’s solicitation of proxies for the meeting of stockholders to be held to approve, among other things, the proposed Merger because these documents will contain important information about the Company, Aditxt and the proposed Merger. The definitive proxy statement will be made available to the Company’s stockholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed Merger. Aditxt stockholders will also be able to obtain copies of the proxy statement, without charge, once available, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Participants in the Solicitation

The Company and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from the Company’s stockholders in connection with the proposed Merger. The Company’s stockholders and other interested persons may obtain, without charge, more detailed information regarding the directors and executive officers of the Company in the Company’s public filings. Information regarding the persons who may, under SEC rules, be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies to the Company’s stockholders in connection with the proposed Merger will be set forth in the proxy statement for the proposed Merger when available. Additional information regarding the interests of participants in the solicitation of proxies in connection with the proposed Merger will be included in the proxy statement that the Company intends to file with the SEC, as described in the “Important Information About the Merger and Where to Find It” section of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including statements regarding the Company’s or Evofem’s future results of operations and financial position are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “target,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and on the current expectations of the respective management teams of the Company and Aditxt and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by an investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company and Aditxt.

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks including, but not limited to, the following risks relating to the proposed transactions: (1) the risk that the proposed transactions may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of the Company’s securities; (2) the failure to satisfy the conditions to Closing (as defined in the A&R Merger Agreement), including the approval by the stockholders of the Company; (3) the ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transactions; and (4) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in the Company’s public filings with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or the Company’s and Aditxt’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on March 27, 2023, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on May 15, 2024 and August 14, 2024, respectively, and any subsequent filings or other documents we filed, or will file, including the proxy statement/prospectus, with the SEC. There may be additional risks that neither the Company nor Aditxt presently know, or that the Company or Aditxt currently believe are immaterial, that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s and Aditxt’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company and Aditxt anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s and Aditxt’s assessments to change. However, while the Company and Aditxt may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company and Aditxt specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except as otherwise required by law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s and Aditxt’s assessments of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.

No Offer or Solicitation

This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the proposed Merger. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall also not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of any securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such other jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, or an exemption therefrom.
