Explanatory Note :

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed on May 23, 2005 with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Rexgene Biotech Co., Ltd., a Korean corporation (“Rexgene”).

This Amendment is filed with respect to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Rexahn Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), to reflect information required by Rule 13d-2 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to Rexgene’s beneficial ownership of the Common Stock. The Issuer’s principal executive office is located at 9620 Medical Center Drive, Rockville, MD 20850.

ITEM 2. Identity and Background .

Item 2 is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

The person filing this statement (the “Reporting Person”), the executive officers and directors of the Reporting Person (the “Additional Persons”) and the information in respect of the Reporting Person and the Additional Persons are as follows:

(a) The name of the Reporting Person is Rexgene Biotech Co., Ltd. The names of the Additional Persons are set forth in Schedule A to this statement, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

(b) The principal business address of Rexgene is 1330-13 Wooyoung Venture Building 4F, Seocho-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul, Korea.

(e) During the last five years, neither Rexgene nor, to the knowledge of Rexgene, any of the Additional Persons, has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which Rexgene or any of the Additional Persons was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f) Rexgene is a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Korea. All of the Additional Persons are citizens of the Republic of Korea.

ITEM 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration .

Item 3 is hereby supplemented as follows:

The total amount of funds required by Rexgene to acquire the securities reported herein is $1,000,000.40. If Rexgene in fact purchases such securities, it expects to fund such purchase out of its working capital on hand.

ITEM 4. Purpose of Transaction .

Item 4 is hereby supplemented as follows:

On November 20, 2007, Rexgene and the Issuer entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement, Rexgene agreed to purchase, upon and subject to the terms and conditions stated therein, (i) 714,286 shares of Common Stock and (ii) a warrant (the “Warrant”) to acquire up to 142,857 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.80 per share, for aggregate cash consideration of $1,000,000.40. The obligation of Rexgene to purchase the Issuer’s securities under the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement is subject to customary terms and conditions, and to the prior or contemporaneous closing of the sale of $3,000,001.20 of the Issuer’s securities to KT&G Corporation (“KT&G”), a Korean corporation, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 19, 2007, by and between the Issuer and KT&G (the “KT&G Securities Purchase Agreement”).

(a) As a result of the execution of the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement, Rexgene acquired beneficial ownership of (a) 714,286 additional shares of Common Stock subject to purchase by it pursuant to the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement, and (b) 142,857 additional shares of Common Stock subject to purchase by it upon exercise of the Warrant subject to purchase by it pursuant to the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement. Consequently, as a result of the execution of the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement, Rexgene’s beneficial ownership increased from 4,791,670 shares of Common Stock to 5,648,813 shares of Common Stock. Such shares constitute beneficial ownership by Rexgene of 11.3% of the outstanding Common Stock, based on information relating to the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock outstanding on November 23, 2007 as set forth in the Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed by the issuer on November 21, 2007.

ITEM 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or

Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Item 6 is hereby supplemented as follows:

Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement

As noted in Item 4 above, on November 20, 2007, Rexgene and the Issuer entered into the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which Rexgene agreed to purchase, upon and subject to the terms and conditions stated therein, (i) 714,286 shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Warrant to acquire up to 142,857 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.80 per share, for aggregate cash consideration of $1,000,000.40. The obligation of Rexgene to purchase the Issuer’s securities under the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement is subject to customary terms and conditions, and to the prior or contemporaneous closing of the sale of $3,000,001.20 of the Issuer’s securities to KT&G pursuant to the KT&G Securities Purchase Agreement.

The Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants. The Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement accords Rexgene “full ratchet” anti-dilution protection for a period of two years following the closing of its purchase of the Common Stock. This means that if the Issuer issues a share of Common Stock at a purchase price of less than $1.40 per share during the relevant period, the Issuer will be obligated to issue an additional number of shares of Common Stock to Rexgene such that its effective purchase price per share equals the lowest such price at which the Issuer issues any share of Common Stock. In addition, the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement obligates the Issuer to take commercially reasonable efforts to list the Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange within the next three years.

Warrant

The Warrant will be exercisable for a term of three years following its issuance to Rexgene. The Warrant includes customary terms providing for adjustment of the exercise price and the number of shares subject to receipt upon exercise that are applicable in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, pro rata distributions, fundamental transactions and the like. The Warrant also is subject to “full ratchet” anti-dilution protection. This means that if the Issuer issues a share of Common Stock at a purchase price of less than $1.80, the exercise price of the Warrant will be reduced to the lowest such price at which any share of Common Stock is issued. Certain securities issuances by the Issuer will not trigger this anti-dilution protection.

| CUSIP No. 761640 10 1 | Page 6 of 8 Pages | | --- | --- |

Registration Rights Agreement

Upon closing of the securities issuances to Rexgene pursuant to the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement, the Issuer will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement with Rexgene pursuant to which the Issuer will agree to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement and upon exercise of the Warrant to be issued pursuant to the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement. The Issuer will be obligated to file such resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than 60 days after the Common Stock is listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange. If the Issuer fails to file the resale registration statement by such date, or if the Issuer fails to take certain other actions required under the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement, the Issuer will be obligated to pay to Rexgene each month, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to 2% of the amount of its investment pursuant to the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement. If the Issuer fails to pay the liquidated damages when and as due, the Issuer will be obligated to pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum.

The above description is not a complete statement of the parties’ rights and obligations under the Rexgene Securities Purchase Agreement, the Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such documents, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits.
