 soliciting alternative takeover proposals or cooperating with persons making unsolicited takeover proposals. Because the lack of a public market for DiamiR shares makes it difficult to evaluate the fairness of the Merger, the shareholders of DiamiR may receive consideration in the Merger that is less than the fair market value of the DiamiR shares. Aptorum and DiamiR may become involved in securities litigation or shareholder derivative litigation in connection with the Merger, and this could divert the attention of Aptorum and DiamiR management and harm the Combined Company’s business, and insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover all related costs and damages. Securities litigation or shareholder derivative litigation frequently follows the announcement of certain significant business transactions, such as the sale of a business division or announcement of a business combination transaction. Aptorum and DiamiR may become involved in this type of litigation in connection with the Merger, and the Combined Company may become involved in this type of litigation in the future. Litigation often is expensive and diverts management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect the business of Aptorum, DiamiR and the Combined Company.

To the extent any of the events in the risks described in the sections referenced in the previous sentence occur, those events could cause the potential benefits of the Merger not to be realized and the market price of the Combined Company’s shares to decline.

The pro forma financial statements have been derived from the historical financial statements of Aptorum and DiamiR and adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding the Combined Company after giving effect to the Merger.
