PRESS RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

SHAREHOLDER VALUE CREATION COMMITTEE URGES RELMADA
SHAREHOLDERS TO STOP, LOOK AND LISTEN BEFORE SIGNING OR
RETURNING ANY PROXY CARD DISTRIBUTED BY RELMADA FOR THE 2015
ANNUAL MEETING

Shareholders will soon be receiving the Shareholder Value Creation Committee’s proxy and
consent materials and GOLD Proxy Card and GOLD Consent

Urges Shareholders to send clear message to the Relmada Board of Directors by
WITHHOLDING their vote on the GOLD Proxy Card when it becomes available

New York, NY – December 4, 2015 – The Committee of Relmada Shareholders for Value Creation (the Shareholder Value Creation Committee), a group of shareholders of Relmada Therapeutics, Inc., (OTCQB: RLMD) (Relmada) unaffiliated with Relmada, announced today that it issued an open letter urging fellow shareholders of Relmada to STOP, LOOK and LISTEN before taking any action in response to the Relmada’s solicitation of proxies for its 2015 annual meeting of shareholders. The complete text of the letter to shareholders follows:

December 4, 2015

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

The Committee of Relmada Shareholders for Value Creation (the Shareholder Value Creation Committee), a group of shareholders of Relmada Therapeutics, Inc., (Relmada) unaffiliated with Relmada, intends to nominate five highly qualified, independent directors for election or appointment to Relmada’s board of directors.

The Shareholder Value Creation Committee believes Relmada has tremendous potential – as evidenced by our beneficial ownership of approximately 9.56% of Relmada’s outstanding shares, making us one of Relmada’s largest shareholders.

Soon you will be receiving the Shareholder Value Creation Committee’s proxy and consent solicitation materials and GOLD proxy card and GOLD consent. We urge you NOT to vote any proxy card sent to you by Relmada and to wait for the Shareholder Value Creation Committee’s consent solicitation and proxy materials.

Over the past year, Relmada has underperformed both the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Biotech Index on an absolute, split-adjusted basis by 83% and 94%, respectively. We believe that this underperformance is due principally to two factors: (i) Relmada’s failure to sharply focus on commercial product development and the commercial execution of its pain therapeutics and (ii) Relmada’s failure to attract the high-quality, healthcare-focused institutional investors necessary to alleviate Relmada’s current capital shortfall and provide the capital infusion needed to develop Relmada’s core products.

Rather than addressing Relmada’s performance issues and capital shortfalls, we believe Relmada’s board of directors and management have, contrary to the interest of all shareholders, focused on taking actions that appear to be intended to entrench themselves, including, among other things:

staggering the board of directors into three classes;

appointing new directors to the board without shareholder approval and after the expiration of Relmada’s advanced notice deadline (i.e., the date by which a shareholder must provide prior notice of its director nominees or business to be brought before a shareholder meeting) in an attempt to eliminate shareholder challenges;

revising Relmada’s bylaws to eliminate the shareholders’ right to amend the bylaws and to provide that the bylaws can be amended only by Relmada’s board of directors;

reducing the quorum required for the Relmada’s annual meeting from a majority to 34%; and

establishing Nevada as the exclusive forum for litigation involving Relmada, its directors and shareholders.

Relmada’s failure to attract high-quality institutional investors, its failure to appropriately focus on clinical, regulatory and commercial execution in pain therapeutics and its recent focus on actions that more deeply entrench its board and management, underscore the need for Relmada to add to its board and management team directors and officers with current experience in specialty pharmaceutical operations, clinical and commercial product development, institutional health care investing and corporate governance.

Due to our frustration with Relmada’s continuing underperformance, we intend to nominate the following five highly qualified, independent directors for election or appointment to Relmada’s board of directors, each of whom bring expertise currently lacking at the board level and will seek to work collaboratively with Relmada’s management and existing directors to optimize value for all shareholders.

Soon you will be receiving the Shareholder Value Creation Committee’s proxy and consent solicitation materials and proxy card and GOLD consent. In the coming days, we intend to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a proxy statement to solicit proxies both to elect our director nominees at Relmada’s 2015 annual meeting and also seeking authority to withhold your vote from counting towards a quorum at Relmada’s 2015 annual meeting. By giving us your authority on our GOLD proxy card, when available, to withhold your vote from counting towards a quorum at the 2015 annual meeting, you will be sending a strong message to the Relmada board of directors against entrenchment and in favor of maximizing long-term value and shareholder return. In addition, we intend to file a consent solicitation seeking your consent (i) to expand Relmada’s board of directors and appoint certain of our director nominees to fill the newly created seats and (ii) to call a special meeting of the Relmada shareholders for the purpose of removing existing directors and appointing our director candidates. By simultaneously launching the above described proxy and consent solicitations, we will maximize shareholders’ opportunity to elect or appoint the Shareholder Value Creation Committee’s five-highly qualified, independent director candidates to the Relmada board of directors. The Shareholder Value Creation Committee is committed to pursuing all available legal remedies to provide Relmada shareholders with the opportunity to elect to the Relmada board of directors our highly-qualified, independent director candidates.

To have your vote counted for the Shareholder Value Creation Committee’s independent nominees, you will need to complete and return our GOLD proxy card and our GOLD consent.

DO NOT return the proxy card sent to you by the current Relmada board of directors, and

DO NOT vote by responding to the email solicitations sent to you by the current Relmada board of directors

DO NOT allow their proxy solicitor to call you at home and take your vote over the telephone.

If your shares are held in street name only your bank or broker can vote your shares, and only upon receipt of your specific instructions by telephone, internet or mail. At this time we are urging you to take NO ACTION in regard to voting your shares.

If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call our proxy solicitor: MacKenzie Partners, Inc. toll-free at 800-322-2885, 212-929-5500 (call collect) or via email at proxy@mackenziepartners.com.
