THE FEMALE HEALTH COMPANY ANNOUNCES SPECIAL

SHAREHOLDERS MEETING WILL BE HELD SEPTEMBER 20, 2016

—Meeting to Approve Matters Relating to Proposed Merger

With Aspen Park Pharmaceuticals—

CHICAGO — August 9, 2016 — The Female Health Company (NASDAQ-CM: FHCO) (FHC), manufacturer of the world’s leading female condom, the FC2, today announced that it will hold a special meeting of shareholders on Tuesday, September 20, 2016 to approve matters relating to the proposed merger transaction between FHC and Aspen Park Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (APP).

The special meeting of FHC shareholders will be held at 10 a.m. Central Time at FHC’s offices located at 150 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 310, Chicago, Illinois, 60601.

As announced previously, FHC entered into a definitive merger agreement with APP. FHC believes that the proposed transaction with APP provides an extraordinary opportunity to establish a new company with the potential to enhance both short-term and long-term stockholder value. The new company will have multiple products that provide opportunities for growth, while mitigating the risk associated with FHC being a single product company. The new company will include a women’s health division, that will focus on expanding FHC’s existing, profitable business, while beginning development of newly acquired oncology assets for breast and ovarian cancer, and a men’s health division, focused on the areas of benign prostatic hyperplasia, male infertility, hot flashes in men on prostate cancer therapy, gout and advanced prostate cancer, together with consumer health products for premature ejaculation and sexual health vitamin supplements. Following the business combination, the Company will be renamed Veru Healthcare Inc.

The full meeting agenda is detailed in FHC’s definitive proxy statement, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and mailed to all stockholders of record as of July 28, 2016, the record date for the meeting.
