Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously disclosed, on May 17, 2020, Neurotrope, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Neurotrope"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Original Merger Agreement") with Petros Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed for the purposes of effecting transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement ("Petros"), PM Merger Sub 1, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros ("Merger Sub 1"), PN Merger Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros ("Merger Sub 2"), and Metuchen Pharmaceuticals LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Metuchen"), as amended by the First Amendment to the Original Merger Agreement (the "First Amendment"), dated as of July 23, 2020 and the Second Amendment to the Original Merger Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2020 (the "Second Amendment" and, together with the Original Merger Agreement and the First Amendment, the "Merger Agreement"). The Merger Agreement provides for (1) the merger of Merger Sub 1, with and into Metuchen, with Metuchen surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (the "Metuchen Merger") and (2) the merger of Merger Sub 2 with and into Neurotrope, with Neurotrope surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petros (the "Neurotrope Merger" and together with the Metuchen Merger, the "Mergers").

Pursuant to Sections 2.1(b) and 2.3(b) of the Merger Agreement and as described in Petros' registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-240064) (the "Registration Statement") that was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on October 29, 2020, the parties to the Merger Agreement may mutually agree, for Nasdaq listing purposes, to adjust the exchange ratios pursuant to the Merger Agreement. In order to meet the listing requirements of Petros' common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market, the parties to the Merger Agreement currently expect that as a result of the Metuchen Merger, each outstanding common unit or preferred unit of Metuchen will be exchanged for a number of shares of Petros common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Petros Common Stock") equal to 0.56008based on an estimated 4,949,610 shares of Petros Common Stock expected to be issued to the holders of Metuchen units in the Mergers. In addition, each securityholder of Metuchen prior to the Mergers will receive a right to receive such securityholder's pro rata share of the shares of Petros Common Stock potentially issuable upon the achievement of certain milestones set forth in the Merger Agreement.

In addition, the parties to the Merger Agreement currently expect that as a result of the Neurotrope Merger, every five (5) shares of Neurotrope common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Neurotrope Common Stock") will be exchanged for one (1) share of Petros Common Stock and each outstanding share of Neurotrope preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Neurotrope Preferred Stock") will be exchanged for one (1) share of Petros preferred stock (the "Petros Preferred Stock"). Following the Mergers, the Petros Preferred Stock will have substantially the same conversion rights (proportionally adjusted to give effect to the Mergers and the final exchange ratios), powers, rights and privileges as the Neurotrope Preferred Stock prior to the Mergers. In addition, each outstanding option to purchase Neurotrope Common Stock or outstanding warrant to purchase common stock that has not previously been exercised prior to the closing of the Mergers will be converted into equivalent options and warrants to purchase shares of Petros Common Stock and will be adjusted to give effect to the final exchange ratios.

The final exchange ratios will be determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement and remain subject to change. All references to shares and per share amounts in the Registration Statement will be adjusted to reflect the final exchange ratios as determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
