Other Events.

On September 3, 2019, Todd C. Brady, M.D., Ph.D., President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Aldeyra Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) informed the Company that he plans to purchase approximately $750,000 of shares of the Company’s common stock, approximately $430,000 of which will be purchased pursuant to a pre-arranged stock trading plan entered into by Dr. Brady (the “Plan”), subject to certain price, volume and other conditions.

The Plan was adopted in a scheduled open window period under the Company’s insider trading policy and was designed to comply with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which permit persons to enter into a pre-arranged plan for buying or selling company stock at a time when such person is not in possession of material, non-public information about such company. In accordance with Rule 10b5-1, Dr. Brady will have no discretion over purchases under the Plan. Transactions under the Plan and other potential purchases by Dr. Brady will be disclosed publicly by Dr. Brady through required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, including on Form 4.

The Company does not undertake to report Rule 10b5-1 plans that may be adopted by any officers or directors in the future, or to report any modifications or termination of any publicly announced trading plan, except to the extent required by applicable law.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

These statements are evidenced by terms such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” and similar expressions. Although these statements reflect management’s good faith beliefs and projections, they are not guarantees of future performance and they may not prove true. These projections involve risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those addressed in the forward-looking statements.
