(a)-Reflects recognition of the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration payable with issuance of Matinas common stock upon achievement of certain future clinical and regulatory milestones, the achievement of which is uncertain. The fair value of the additional shares were established by assigning probabilities and projected dates of positive outcome for the milestones and valuing the future issuance of the shares by using the Black-Scholes options pricing model to account for the uncertainty in the future value of the shares. The value of the shares as derived using the options pricing model were then weighted based on the probability of achieving the milestones to determine the fair market value of the additional shares. The entire $753,346 of contingent consideration was recorded as additional paid-in capital at December 31, 2015.

(b)-The fair value of the in-process research and development asset was estimated on the basis of its replacement cost as determined by a buildup of the costs incurred to develop the technology as it existed as of the acquisition date resulting in a fair value of $3,017,377. The fair value of other assets and liabilities approximate their book value.
 
(c)-The Company allocated the purchase price to the net tangible and intangible assets based upon their estimated fair values at the Merger date. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill including deferred tax liabilities resulting from the tax attributes of the in-process research and development (see Note C 14). In connection with the Aquarius acquisition, the Company made an adjustment as a result of the purchase accounting requirements to reflect a change in the value of the deferred tax liabilities resulting from an adjustment to the Company's effective tax rate, recording a $48,186 reduction to the deferred tax liabilities with an offsetting credit to Goodwill.
 
(d)- Aquarius issued a note for a loan that was made to a related party. Interest on the note is calculated using the applicable federal rate for midterm loans. Since the note has no specified repayment terms, it is considered a current liability. This note was subsequently paid in full in 2015.
