Companies Targeting Closing in Fourth Quarter
of 2024
Aditxt, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADTX) (“Aditxt” or the “Company”), an
innovation platform dedicated to accelerating promising health
innovations, today announced that its acquisition target, Evofem
Biosciences, Inc. (“Evofem”) (OTCQB: EVFM), today filed a
preliminary proxy to seek stockholder approval of transactions
contemplated under the Amended and Restated Merger Agreement dated
as of July 12, 2024 (the “Merger Agreement”), with Aditxt and
Adifem, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aditxt (“Adifem”),
pursuant to which, and on the terms and subject to the conditions
thereof, Adifem will merge with and into Evofem, with Evofem
surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Aditxt.
Assuming the proposal is approved by Evofem stockholders and
other closing conditions are met, including but not limited to the
Company raising sufficient capital to fund its obligations at
closing, the companies are targeting closing the transaction in the
fourth quarter of 2024. No assurance can be provided that all of
the conditions to closing will be obtained or satisfied or that
either of the transactions will ultimately close.
About Evofem Biosciences, Inc.
Evofem is commercializing innovative products to address unmet
needs in women's sexual and reproductive health. The Company's
first FDA-approved product, Phexxi ® (lactic acid, citric acid and
potassium bitartrate) , is a hormone-free, on-demand prescription
contraceptive vaginal gel. It comes in a box of 12 pre-filled

July 2024, Evofem broadened its commercial offering with the
acquisition of SOLOSEC® (secnidazole) 2g oral granules , an
FDA-approved oral antibiotic for the treatment of two sexual health
diseases: bacterial vaginosis (BV), a common vaginal infection in

sexually transmitted infection (STI), in people 12 years of age and
older. SOLOSEC provides a complete course of therapy in just one
