Cardax Announces Warrant Exchange Offer

HONOLULU, May 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Cardax, Inc. (OTCQB: CDXI) announced today that it has filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a one-time offer to allow holders of its $0.625 warrants expiring in February 2019 to exchange those warrants, together with a payment of $0.15 per share, for registered shares of the Company’s common stock. This offer is available to original holders and anyone that acquires these warrants. Any warrants that are not tendered in the exchange offer will remain outstanding in accordance with its terms.

M.M. Dillon & Co. Group LLC is acting as financial advisor and CIM Securities, LLC is acting as solicitation agent for this transaction.

There are 27.7 million common shares underlying the existing $0.625 warrants, and if 50% of the warrant holders participate, net proceeds to the Company would be approximately $1.8 million from this non-dilutive financing.

Cardax plans to use proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes including its ZanthoSyn® sales and marketing program, which is focused on outreach to healthcare providers and GNC stores. We may also use proceeds from this offering for clinical development.

A registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission but has not yet become effective. These securities may not be sold nor may offers to buy be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective.

The exchange offer will expire 20 business days after the effective date of the registration statement, unless extended by the Company.

The prospectus and transmittal letter will be provided to the warrant holders promptly after the effective date of the registration statement. The registration statement that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is available at www.sec.gov. Offering materials also may be obtained from the Company, upon request to Cardax at 2800 Woodlawn Drive, Suite 129, Honolulu, Hawaii 96822.

No offer to buy the securities can be accepted and no part of the purchase price can be received until the registration statement has become effective, and any such offer may be withdrawn or revoked, without obligation or commitment of any kind, at any time prior to notice of its acceptance given after the effective date.
