Words such as, but not limited to, "anticipate", "believe", "could", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "may", "plan", "potential", "predict", "project", "should", "will", "would" or the negative of those terms, and similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes, identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect management's beliefs and views with respect to future events and are based on estimates and assumptions as of the date of this Presentation and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Moreover, the Company operates in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for management to predict all risks, nor can the Company assess the impact of all factors on its business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The Company qualifies all of the forward-looking statements in this Presentation by these cautionary statements. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The Company's estimates of the patient population with the potential to benefit from treatment with any product candidates the Company may develop include several key assumptions based on its industry knowledge, industry publications and third-party research, which may be based on a small sample size and may fail to accurately reflect the addressable patient population.

The Unmet Need in Infertility: Compelling Testimonials 14 For more than 20 years, current approaches to infertility treatment have been limited during the initial stage of therapeutic care, but with the advancement of FemaSeed, we believe a next generation intrauterine procedure may have the opportunity to truly change this traditional paradigm. - Michael Glassner, MD Founding Partner and Medical Director of Main Line Fertility & Reproductive Medicine FemaSeed Physician Testimonial FemVue Patient Testimonials Being aware that there are many reasons why women have issues conceiving, FemVue is one easy procedure that can assist in finding out why it may have been difficult. As such, I highly recommend any woman who has tried for months or years to conceive to get the FemVue procedure. It is a procedure that will get you immediate results for you and your doctor to discuss the next steps of making your dreams come true. After a month of completing successful medical procedures including FemVue, my husband and I conceived our first child.

Completed Earlier FemBloc Supportive Studies (N=321) Stage I: Safety FemBloc Clinical Studies for Pre-Market Approval (PMA) 23 Stage III: Pivotal Clinical Trial (IDE approved June 2023; currently enrolling) FINALE Trial Design: Prospective, multi-center, open-label, single-arm study Roll-in study design to begin with enrollment of 50 women for a clinical readout primarily of preliminary safety data prior to enrolling remaining subjects. Primary Endpoint: pregnancy rate at 1-year after FemBloc use for permanent birth control (N=401) Secondary Endpoints: safety and various in-office assessments Safety Follow-Up: 2-5 years post-market Interim analysis planned after 300 women have used FemBloc for permanent birth control for 1-year. Selection of Confirmation Test for Pivotal Stage II: Validation Early Clinical Long-Term Safety with No Serious AEs Reported Evaluated Delivery & Biopolymer Summary: n=45 subjects being followed for 5 years Subjects received two confirmation tests (ultrasound and radiology) Continued safety established; no serious AEs Continued patient tolerability and physician ease of use established Summary: n=183 subjects being followed for 5 years Patients found procedures highly tolerable Physicians found procedure to be extremely simple or very simple 99% physicians assessed easier than tubal ligation surgery Summary: n=93 subjects received planned hysterectomy Subset with histopathology demonstrating biopolymer tissue reactions No serious safety events reported

The Unmet Need for Women: Options for Family Planning 26 Although tubal ligation has been performed for over a century, women will benefit from an in-office approach that avoids the risks and discomforts associated with incisions, general anesthesia and surgery. FemBloc may expand much needed options for women seeking permanent contraception. - Paul Blumenthal, MD, MPH Professor Emeritus and Director of the Stanford Program for International Reproductive Education and Services (SPIRES) at Stanford University’s School of Medicine
