To: All Persons or Entities who purchased Rexahn Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: REXN) ("Rexahn" or the "Company") stock prior to June 17, 2020.

You are hereby notified that Levi & Korsinsky, LLP has commenced an investigation into the fairness of the merger of Rexahn with Ocuphire Pharma, Inc. ("Ocuphire"). Under the terms of the merger, Ocuphire will merge with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rexahn, with Ocuphire surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rexahn. Following the merger, the combined company will change its name to Ocuphire Pharma, Inc. and is expected to trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol "OCUP." Rexahn'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.
