that it was not in compliance with certain NYSE American continued listing standards relating to stockholders&rsquo; equity as
of September 30, 2019. Specifically, the Deficiency Letter stated that the Company is not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(iii)
(requiring stockholders&rsquo; equity of $6.0 million or more if it has reported losses from continuing operations and/or net losses
in its five most recent fiscal years). The Deficiency Letter noted that the Company had a stockholders&rsquo; equity of $4.9 million
as of September 30, 2019, and has reported net losses in its five most recent fiscal years. The Company is required to submit a
plan to the NYSE American by December 26, 2019 advising of actions it has taken or will take to regain compliance with the continued
listing standards by November 25, 2020. The Company intends to submit a plan by the December 26, 2019 deadline. If the Company
fails to submit a plan, or if the Company&rsquo;s plan is not accepted or if the Company fails to regain compliance by the deadline,
the NYSE American may commence delisting procedures.</P>

</B><FONT STYLE="color: Blue"><U>Synthetic Biologics, Inc.</U></FONT> (NYSE American: SYN), a diversified clinical-stage company
leveraging the microbiome to develop therapeutics designed to prevent and treat gastrointestinal (GI) diseases in areas of high
unmet need, today announced it has received written communication from NYSE American LLC (the &ldquo;Exchange&rdquo;), the Company&rsquo;s
current listing exchange, stating that it is not in compliance with certain continued listing standards as set forth in the NYSE
American Company Guide. Based on the Company&rsquo;s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, which
was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on November 4, 2019, the Company is below compliance with Part 10,
Section 1003 of the NYSE American Company Guide since it reported stockholders&rsquo; equity of $4.9 million and net losses in
five of its most recent fiscal years as of September 30, 2019.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In order to maintain its listing, the Company
intends to submit a plan of compliance by December 26, 2019 addressing how it intends to regain compliance with certain Exchange
continued listing standards by November 25, 2020. If the plan is accepted, the Company shall maintain its listing but will be subject
to periodic reviews by the Exchange. The Company is pursuing options to address the Exchange&rsquo;s notification and intends to
submit a plan of compliance on or before the deadline set forth by the Exchange.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The NYSE American notification does not
affect the Company&rsquo;s business operations or the listing of the Company&rsquo;s shares on the Exchange, and does not represent
any change or amendment to the Company's consolidated financial statements or to its quarterly reports for the quarter ended September
30, 2019 or to its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Synthetic Biologics, Inc. (NYSE American:
SYN) is a diversified clinical-stage company leveraging the microbiome to develop therapeutics designed to prevent and treat gastrointestinal
(GI) diseases in areas of high unmet need. The Company's lead candidates are: (1) SYN-004 (ribaxamase) which is designed to degrade
certain commonly used intravenous (IV) beta-lactam antibiotics within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract to prevent microbiome damage,
<I>C. difficile</I> infection (CDI), overgrowth of pathogenic organisms, the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and acute
graft-versus-host-disease (aGVHD) in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients, and (2) SYN-010, which is intended
to reduce the impact of methane-producing organisms in the gut microbiome to treat an underlying cause of irritable bowel syndrome
with constipation (IBS-C). The Company is also advancing SYN-020, an oral formulation of the enzyme intestinal alkaline phosphatase
(IAP) to treat both local GI and systemic diseases. For more information, please visit Synthetic Biologics' website at <FONT STYLE="color: Blue"><U>www.syntheticbiologics.com</U></FONT>.</P>
