Hi ,
As you can see from the attached press release issued today after the market closed, we announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement with Achieve Life Science, a clinical stage, privately-held company focused on the development of a smoking cessation product. I recognize this is very late notice, but wondering if you might have time in your schedule to meet with us at JPM next week? Monday or Tuesday would be best for us. Jim DeNike, copied on this email is coordinating the schedule on our side.
Regards,
Scott Cormack
President & Chief Executive Officer
