1. Operations and Organization
Operations
Rexahn Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is a biopharmaceutical company whose principal operations have been
the development of innovative therapies to improve patient outcomes in cancers that are difficult to treat. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $166,420,604 at June 30, 2020 and anticipates incurring losses in the foreseeable future.
On June 17, 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Original Merger Agreement,” and as
amended on June 29, 2020, the “Merger Agreement”) with Razor Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and Ocuphire Pharma Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ocuphire”), pursuant to which, among
other things, and subject to the satisfaction and waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Ocuphire, with Ocuphire continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the surviving
corporation of the merger (the “Merger”). See Note 2, Merger Agreement and Pre-Merger Financing, for further information.
The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents of approximately $9.2 million as of June 30, 2020 will be sufficient to cover its
cash flow requirements for its current activities for at least the next 12 months from the date these financial statements were issued, assuming the Merger does not close.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2020 and
December 31, 2019 and of the results of operations, comprehensive loss, and stockholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 have been included.
Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. The accompanying unaudited condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”). Information included in
the condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the 2019 Form 10-K. The unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on
management’s best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future. Actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and as adjustments become necessary, they are
reported in earnings in the period in which they become available.

COVID-19 Pandemic
The outbreak of the COVID-19 disease, which the World Health Organization declared a pandemic in March 2020, has led to disruption in the
global economy and the biopharmaceutical industry. The extent of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as the Company’s ability to consummate the Merger, is highly uncertain
and will depend on various factors, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, restrictions on business and social distancing guidelines that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities, other actions taken to contain the impact
of the pandemic, and the Company’s access to additional capital.
2. Merger Agreement and Pre-Merger Financing
Merger Agreement
On June 17, 2020, the Company, Merger Sub and Ocuphire entered into the Original Merger Agreement, which was subsequently amended on June 29, 2020, pursuant
to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Ocuphire, with Ocuphire continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in an all-stock transaction.
For accounting purposes, Ocuphire is considered to be acquiring the Company even though the Company will be the issuer of the common stock in the Merger due to various considerations, including the
expected ownership positions of former Company and Ocuphire stockholders post-Merger, as well as the expected composition of the Company’s Board of Directors and management team post-Merger. The Merger is expected to be accounted for as an asset
acquisition by Ocuphire.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”): (a) each share of Ocuphire common stock outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time (excluding shares held as treasury stock, shares held by Ocuphire and dissenting shares) will be converted into the right to receive shares of Company common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio described below; and (b) each
outstanding Ocuphire stock option that has not previously been exercised prior to the Effective Time will be assumed by the Company.
Under the exchange ratio formula in the Merger Agreement (the “Exchange Ratio”), immediately following the consummation of the Merger (the “Closing”), the Company’s then-current stockholders would
own approximately 14.3% of the combined company’s common stock, and the former Ocuphire securityholders would own approximately 85.7% of the combined company’s common stock, in each case calculated on a fully-diluted basis, assuming the Company’s
net cash balance at the anticipated Closing date is between $3.2 million and $6.0 million. The Exchange Ratio formula in the Merger Agreement is subject to adjustment for every $100,000 that the Company’s actual net cash balance at the anticipated
Closing date is less than $3.2 million or more than $6.0 million. Based on the Company’s current estimates, the Company anticipates delivering net cash between $0 and $500,000 assuming the Closing occurs by November 14, 2020, which is the end date
set forth in the Merger Agreement; however, the final net cash amount will not be calculated until the anticipated Closing date, and may vary significantly depending on, among other things, the Company’s ability to control and correctly estimate
its operating expenses, expenses relating to the Company’s ongoing litigation and the trading price of the Company’s common stock (and its impact on the estimated warrant liability, which reduces net cash). If the Company’s actual net cash balance
at the anticipated Closing date is $0, which is the minimum amount of net cash that the Company is required to deliver to Close, then immediately following the Closing, the Company’s then-current stockholders would own approximately 11.2% of the
combined company’s common stock, and the former Ocuphire securityholders would own approximately 88.8% of the combined company’s common stock, in each case calculated on a fully-diluted basis. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company’s
stockholders’ ownership percentage in the combined company is subject to a floor of 9.1% regardless of the Company’s actual net cash balance at the anticipated Closing date, assuming Ocuphire waives the minimum net cash requirement at the
anticipated Closing date. These ownership percentages give effect to the shares of Ocuphire common stock that will be issued to Investors (as defined below) in the Pre-Merger Financing (as defined below) prior to the Closing, but do not account for
any additional shares of Company common stock that may be issued following the Closing or the warrants issuable to Investors after Closing. As a result, holders of Company common stock could own significantly less of the combined company than
currently contemplated. For example, if the average of the five lowest volume-weighted average trading prices of Company common stock on Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) during the first ten trading days immediately following the closing of the
Pre-Merger Financing reaches a certain floor price specified in the Securities Purchase Agreement (as defined below), then the pre-Merger holders of Company common stock could own a low single-digit percentage of the fully-diluted combined company
equity securities, depending on the Company’s actual net cash amount at the anticipated Closing date.

Consummation of the Merger is subject to certain Closing conditions, including, among other things: (i) approval by the stockholders of the Company and Ocuphire; (ii) the continued listing of the
Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq and the listing of the additional shares of Company common stock issued in connection with the Merger on Nasdaq; (iii) the accuracy of the representations and warranties, subject to certain materiality
qualifications; (iv) satisfaction by the Company of a minimum net cash requirement of $0; and (v) completion of the Pre-Merger Financing.
The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both the Company and Ocuphire, and further provides that, upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, either
party may be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $750,000 or, in some circumstances, Ocuphire may be required to reimburse the Company’s expenses up to a maximum of $750,000.
Immediately after the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of the Company is expected to be comprised of seven members, one of whom is expected to be Richard J. Rodgers, a current member of the
Company’s Board of Directors, and the remaining six directors are expected to include existing Ocuphire board members and an additional director designated by Ocuphire. Following the Closing, Mina Sooch is expected to serve as the Company’s
President and Chief Executive Officer. Also at the Effective Time, the Company expects to effect a name change to “Ocuphire Pharma, Inc.” and it is anticipated that the Company’s securities will be listed for trading on Nasdaq under the symbol
“OCUP.”
In accordance with the Merger Agreement, on June 17, 2020, the Board of Directors approved the termination of Douglas J. Swirsky’s employment with the Company, effective as of immediately following
the Effective Time, as a result of which Mr. Swirsky will be entitled to the severance amounts and other benefits afforded Mr. Swirsky in connection with a termination of Mr. Swirsky’s employment by the Company without cause within the two-year
period immediately following a change of control pursuant to Section 8(c) of Mr. Swirsky’s employment agreement, subject to Mr. Swirsky’s execution of a general release in favor of the Company. The termination of Mr. Swirsky’s employment is subject
to and conditioned upon the closing of the Merger at the Effective Time, and therefore Mr. Swirsky shall not be terminated if the Merger is not consummated or the Merger Agreement is terminated prior to the Effective Time.

The Merger is expected to close in the second half of 2020, subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting to be held at a future date and other closing conditions.
Contingent Value Rights Agreement
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and a Contingent Value Rights Agreement (the “CVR Agreement”) to be entered into immediately prior to Closing, Company stockholders as of immediately prior to the
Effective Time will receive one contingent value right (“CVR”) for each share of Company common stock held of record as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. Each CVR will represent the right to receive cash payments upon the occurrence of
certain triggering events. In particular, for each calendar quarter (each, a “CVR Payment Period”) during the 15-year period after the Closing (the “CVR Term”), CVR holders will be entitled to (i) 90% of all payments received by the Company from
BioSense Global LLC (“BioSense”) pursuant to that certain License and Assignment Agreement, dated as of February 25, 2019, by and between BioSense and the Company, as amended (the “License and Assignment Agreement”), less certain permitted
deductions, (ii) 90% of all payments received by the Company from Zhejiang HaiChang Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (“HaiChang”) pursuant to that certain Exclusive License Agreement, dated as of February 8, 2020, by and between HaiChang and the Company
(the “HaiChang License Agreement”), less certain permitted deductions, and (iii) 75% of (a) all cash consideration paid by a third party to the Company during the applicable CVR Payment Period in connection with the grant, sale or transfer of
rights to certain of the Company’s pre-Closing intellectual property (“Parent IP”) under an agreement that is entered into during the 10-year period after the Closing (“Parent IP Deal”); plus (b) with respect to any non-cash consideration received
by the Company from a third party during the applicable CVR Payment Period in connection with any Parent IP Deal, all amounts received by the Company at the time such non-cash consideration is monetized, less (c) certain permitted deductions.
Securities Purchase Agreement
On June 29, 2020, Ocuphire, the Company and certain institutional healthcare investors, accredited investors and certain directors and officers of Ocuphire (the “Investors”) entered into a
Securities Purchase Agreement, which amended and restated in its entirety the prior securities purchase agreement among the same parties dated June 17, 2020 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the
Investors agreed to invest a total of $21.15 million in cash (the “Purchase Price”) to fund the combined company following the Merger (the “Pre-Merger Financing”). In return, based on an agreed upon pre-money valuation of the combined company of
$120 million, Ocuphire will issue shares of Ocuphire common stock to the Investors, which shares will be exchangeable in the Merger for approximately 15% of the combined company on a fully diluted basis (the “Initial Shares”). In addition, (i)
Ocuphire will deposit three times the number of Initial Shares into escrow with an escrow agent for the benefit of the Investors, to be exchanged for Company common stock in the Merger, and to be delivered, in whole or in part, based on the formula
set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement, out of escrow to the Investors if 85% of the average of the five lowest volume-weighted average trading prices of a share of Company common stock on Nasdaq during the first ten trading days (or
earlier, at the election of any Investor) immediately following the closing date of the Pre-Merger Financing (which closing date will be the same date as the Closing) is lower than the effective price per share paid by the Investors for the shares
of Company common stock issued at Closing in exchange for the Initial Shares, and (ii) on the tenth trading day following the closing date of the Pre-Merger Financing (the “warrant closing date”), the Company will issue to the Investors (x) Series
A warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock and (y) Series B warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock.

3. Marketable Securities
Marketable securities are considered “available-for-sale” in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320, “Debt and Equity Securities,” and
thus are reported at fair value in the Company’s accompanying balance sheet, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Amounts reclassified out of accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss) into realized gains and losses are accounted for on the basis of specific identification and are included in other income or expense in the statement of operations. The Company classifies such investments as current on
the balance sheet as the investments are readily marketable and available for use in current operations.
The Company had no marketable securities as of June 30, 2020. The following table shows the Company’s marketable securities’ adjusted cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and fair value by significant investment
category as of December 31, 2019:

6. License Agreements
BioSense Global LLC
On March 10, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to its collaboration and license agreement, (as amended, the “License and Assignment Agreement”) with BioSense to
advance the development and commercialization of RX-3117 for all human uses in the Republic of Singapore, China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan (the “Territory”). Under the terms of the License and Assignment Agreement, upon payment in full of an
upfront payment, the Company will (i) grant BioSense an exclusive license to develop and commercialize pharmaceutical products containing RX-3117 as a single agent for all human uses in the Territory and (ii) assign and transfer all of the
Company’s patents and patent applications related to RX-3117 in the Territory. The upfront payment consists of an aggregate of $1,650,000, of which $1,550,000 has been received to date. Under the License and Assignment Agreement, the Company is
eligible to receive milestone payments in an aggregate of up to $84,500,000 upon the achievement of development, regulatory and commercial goals and will also be eligible to receive tiered royalties in the mid-single digits to low tens on annual
net sales in the Territory.
The Company has evaluated the License and Assignment Agreement under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be
recognized as the Company fulfills its obligations under the License and Assignment Agreement. The Company identified the exclusive license to develop RX-3117 and the supply of RX-3117 drug product, drug substance and intermediate materials
(collectively, the “Transferred Materials”) as the distinct performance obligations in the contract. The Company has determined that it will recognize revenue related to the exclusive license to develop RX-3117 and the supply of the Transferred
Materials transfers to BioSense at a point in time when the exclusive license is conveyed and the Transferred Materials are made available for delivery to BioSense, respectively.
The Company has determined the transaction price contains both fixed and variable consideration. The fixed consideration is equal to the upfront payment of $1,650,000. The
variable consideration relates to the milestone payments and future sales-based royalty payments. The Company estimates the variable consideration in the contract using the most likely amount method. The Company determined at the contract outset
and as of June 30, 2020 that all milestone payments should be fully constrained, as it is not probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur in a future period, given the significance of the milestone payments and that the payments
are earned based upon the achievement of events that are highly susceptible to factors outside of the Company’s control. Future sales-based royalties related to the exclusive license to develop RX-3117 will be recognized in the period the
underlying sales transaction occurs.
The $1,650,000 upfront payment has been allocated to the performance obligations on the basis of the relative standalone selling price estimated for each performance
obligation. The Company has determined the standalone selling price of the exclusive license to develop RX-3117 using the adjusted market approach, which represents the price the market will bear based on the license rights granted and the state of
the intellectual property, and has determined the standalone selling price of the supply of the Transferred Materials using a cost approach. Accordingly, the Company has allocated $750,000 of the upfront transaction price to the exclusive license
to develop RX-3117 and $900,000 to the supply of the Transferred Materials. Additional transaction price recognized in future periods related to milestone payments and royalties will be allocated solely to the exclusive license to develop RX-3117,
as these amounts relate to efforts associated with the development and commercialization of products related to the exclusive license to develop RX-3117.

As of June 30, 2020, $1,550,000 of the upfront payment had been paid, and the remaining $100,000 remained unpaid. As of June 30, 2020, the exclusive license had not been
transferred and no revenue was recognized related to that performance obligation, however, the Company had satisfied the performance obligation related to the Transferred Materials during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Therefore, the
Company recognized no revenue and $900,000 in revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Therefore, the Company has recorded the additional $650,000 of transaction consideration received as of June 30, 2020 as deferred
revenue on the Company’s balance sheet.
Zhejiang HaiChang Biotechnology Co., Ltd.
On February 8, 2020, the Company entered into the HaiChang License Agreement with HaiChang pursuant to which the Company granted HaiChang an exclusive
(even as to the Company), royalty-bearing, sublicensable worldwide license to research, develop and commercialize pharmaceutical products comprising RX-0201 (subject to and limited by the exclusive rights of NEXT BT Co. Ltd (“Next BT”) with respect
to RX-0201 in Asia), the nano-liposomal formulation of RX-0201 known as RX-0301, and RX-0047, a proprietary compound currently in preclinical development. HaiChang has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, seek regulatory
approval for, and commercialize one product comprising RX-0301 and one product comprising RX-0047.
HaiChang paid a one-time upfront payment of $250,000 to the Company for certain materials to be transferred by the Company to HaiChang. HaiChang will pay the Company development milestone payments
in an aggregate of up to $63,000,000 with respect to RX-0201 and RX-0301 and up to $33,000,000 with respect to RX-0047, and royalties based on percentages of net sales in the low tens with respect to RX-0201 and RX-0301 and the mid-single digits
with respect to RX-0047. However, if HaiChang exclusively sublicenses its rights to a third party with respect to RX-0201 and RX-0301 or RX-0047 in a particular jurisdiction, instead of the foregoing milestones and royalties to the extent relating
to such compound(s) and jurisdiction, HaiChang will pay the Company a percentage of any sublicensing revenue received by HaiChang, provided that in any event HaiChang will pay a milestone payment on initiation of a Phase 3 clinical trial that is
subject to reduction by the amount of any sublicensing revenue paid with respect to the applicable compound(s) as of the time of initiation of the trial.
The Company accounts for the HaiChang License Agreement under ASC 606. The Company has determined the performance obligations under the contract relate to the transfer of materials and the license
of intellectual property. Revenue associated with the materials and license is recognized at a point in time. The Company has determined the transaction price contains both fixed and variable consideration.
The fixed consideration is equal to the upfront payment of $250,000. At the outset of the contract, the Company determined the value of the license to be de minimis given the early stage of clinical development of the intellectual
property, and allocated the entire fixed consideration to the materials. The Company transferred the materials during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and therefore recognized $0 and $250,000 in revenue during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2020, respectively. The variable consideration relates to the milestone payments, sublicense fees and future sales-based royalty payments . The Company estimates variable consideration under the
contract using the expected value method. Given the early stage and the uncertain success of the development work to be performed by HaiChang, the Company has determined that the variable consideration in the contract should be fully constrained
at the contract outset and as of June 30, 2020.

7. Leases
The Company leases 5,466 square feet of office space in Rockville, Maryland, with a lease term ending June 30, 2024. Under the lease agreement, the Company pays its allocable portion of real
estate taxes and common area operating charges, which are recorded as variable lease costs. The lease has escalating rent payments for which the Company records lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and an option to terminate
the leased premises, without penalty, on June 30, 2021. The Company is reasonably certain that it will not remain in these leased premises after the optional termination date, and therefore, is using the optional termination date in assessing the
lease term.
The components of lease expense were as follows:

8. Net Loss per Common Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per common share
is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus the number of common share equivalents that would be dilutive. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were stock options and
warrants to acquire, in the aggregate, 2,067,713 and 2,126,063 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, that are potentially dilutive. However, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for all periods presented because
the inclusion of common share equivalents would be anti-dilutive.

9. Stock-Based Compensation
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had 146,224 options to purchase common stock outstanding.

equity awards to key employees, directors and consultants of the Company. The Company has reserved 283,333 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to the 2013 Plan. As of June 30, 2020, there were 142,066 options outstanding under the 2013
Plan, and 139,236 shares were available for issuance. In addition, as of June 30, 2020, there were 4,158 options outstanding under a previously established stock option plan under which no new stock options may be granted.
Accounting for Awards
Stock-based compensation expense is the estimated fair value of options granted amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting service period for the entire
portion of the award. Total stock-based compensation recognized by the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 is as follows:

11. Income Taxes
No provision for federal and state income taxes was required for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 due to the Company’s operating losses and
increased deferred tax asset valuation allowance. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had unused net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $160,154,000 and $ 156,586 ,000
respectively, portions of which expire at various dates beginning in 2021. Some of the Company’s unused net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to annual limitations under certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code related to
“changes in ownership.”
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the deferred tax assets related to the aforementioned carry-forwards have been fully offset by valuation allowances, because
significant utilization of such amounts is not presently expected in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and valuation allowances consist of:

12. Commitments and Contingencies
a)
The Company has contracted with various vendors for services, with terms that require payments over the terms of the agreements, usually ranging from two to 36 months. The costs to be incurred are estimated and
are subject to revision. As of June 30, 2020, the total estimated cost to complete these agreements was approximately $210,000. All of these agreements may be terminated by either party upon appropriate notice as stipulated in the
respective agreements.
b)
On June 22, 2009, the Company entered into a License Agreement with Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology (“KRICT”) to acquire the rights to all intellectual property related to quinoxaline-piperazine
derivatives that were synthesized under a Joint Research Agreement. The agreement with KRICT calls for a one-time milestone payment of $1,000,000 within 30 days after the first achievement of marketing approval of the first commercial
product arising out of or in connection with the use of KRICT’s intellectual property. As of June 30, 2020, the milestone has not occurred.
c)
The Company has established a 401(k) plan for its employees. The Company has elected to match 100% of the first 3% of an employee’s compensation plus 50% of an additional 2% of the employee’s deferral.
Expense related to this matching contribution aggregated to $9,785 and $18,506 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $21,014 and $46,385 for the six months ended June 30,
2020 and 2019, respectively.
d)
On February 5, 2018, the Company and Next BT terminated a research collaboration agreement between the Company and Rexgene Biotech Co., Ltd, a predecessor in interest to Next BT. The Company agreed to pay Next BT
a royalty in the low single digits of any net sales of RX-0201 the Company makes in Asia and 50% of the Company’s licensing revenue related to licensing of RX-0201 in Asia, up to an aggregate of $5,000,000. On June 18, 2018, the Company
reinstated the exclusive license to RX-0201 in Asia, which had no effect on the potential royalty payments granted to Next BT in February 2018. As of June 30, 2020, the Company has not made any royalty payments to Next BT.

13. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date, not adjusted for transaction costs. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels giving the highest priority to quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).
The three levels are described below:
Level 1 Inputs
—
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible by the Company;
Level 2 Inputs
—
Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly;
Level 3 Inputs
—
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability including significant assumptions of the Company and other market participants.
The following tables present assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the fair value hierarchy.

Legal Proceedings
On July 31, 2020, a putative stockholder class action was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware styled Stahlman v. Rexahn
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Case No. 2020-0639. Additionally, on August 3, 2020, a putative stockholder class action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware styled Thompson
v. Rexahn Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al. , Case No. 1:20-cv-01036-UNA (D. Del). On August 7, 2020, a putative stockholder class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York styled Manes v. Rexahn Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:20-cv-06227 (S.D.N.Y.) (together with the Stahlman and Thompson
actions, the “Stockholder Actions”). The Stockholder Actions assert claims against the Company and members of the Company’s board of directors (the “Individual Defendants”).
The Stahlman and Manes complaints allege that the Individual Defendants breached their fiduciary duties owed to
the Company’s stockholders. The Thompson and Manes complaints allege that the Company and the Individual Defendants violated Section 14(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder, by failing to disclose in the Registration Statement on Form S-4 that the Company filed with the SEC on July 6, 2020 (File No. 333-239702) (the
“Registration Statement”) certain information regarding, among other things, financial projections for the Company and Ocuphire, the valuation analyses performed by the Company’s financial advisor, Oppenheimer & Co., Inc., in support of its
fairness opinion and the process leading to the execution of the Merger Agreement. The Thompson and Manes complaints also allege that the Individual Defendants violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act,
as control persons who had the ability to prevent the Proxy Statement from being false and misleading. The Stockholder Actions seek, among other things, an injunction preventing consummation of the Merger, an award of damages, and an award of costs
and expenses, including attorneys’ fees.
Additionally, on August 6, 2020, another party sent a letter to the Company’s counsel demanding that the Company and the Individual Defendants amend the Registration Statement to provide additional
disclosures that the party alleges were improperly omitted from the Registration Statement in violation of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, including certain information regarding financial data and the background and process leading
to the execution of the Merger Agreement (the “Demand Letter”).
The Company intends to defend against the Stockholder Actions and the Demand Letter, however it is reasonably possible that a loss may be incurred. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate
the potential loss or range of losses.
