Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995:

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.  These forward-looking statements include, among other things, statements regarding the expected timing of the closing of the merger between the Company and NeuBase; expectations regarding the combined company’s trading on NASDAQ; and the executive structure of the combined company.  These forward-looking statements are distinguished by use of words such as “will,” “would,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “designed,” “plan,” or “intend,” the negative of these terms, and similar references to future periods.  These views involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and, accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in our forward-looking statements.  Our forward-looking statements contained herein speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A.  Factors or events that we cannot predict, including those described in the risk factors contained in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-4, as amended, that contains a joint proxy statement/prospectus, may cause our actual results to differ from those expressed in forward-looking statements. The Company and the combined company may not actually achieve the plans, carry out the intentions or meet the expectations or projections disclosed in the forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Because such statements deal with future events and are based on the Company’s and NeuBase’s current expectations, they are subject to various risks and uncertainties and actual results, performance or achievements of the Company or the combined company could differ materially from those described in or implied by the statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K/A, including: the risk that the conditions to the closing of the merger are not satisfied; uncertainties as to the timing of the consummation of the transaction and the ability of each of the Company and NeuBase to consummate the transaction, as well as those risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-4, as amended, that contains a joint proxy statement/prospectus. Except as otherwise required by law, the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof, whether as a result of new information, future events or circumstances or otherwise.
