Revance Announces Series C Expansion

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.—May 12, 2008—Revance Therapeutics, Inc. (“Revance”) today announced the completion of an additional $8 million investment to the Series C financing that was completed in December 2007. The expansion led by Bio*One Capital brings the total Series C to $51.2 million. The financing included returning investors, Essex Woodlands Healthcare Ventures, Vivo Ventures, Technology Partners, Shepherd Ventures, Palo Alto Investors, and new investors, Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation, Bio*One Capital and Pac-Link Ventures.

“We are very pleased to complete this Series C financing with additional participation from Bio*One Capital and Pac-Link Ventures,” said Dan Browne, President & Chief Executive Officer of Revance. “The additional investment capital from the financing, as well as the BioMed Realty Trust transaction announced last month, will allow Revance to expand its botulinum toxin clinical programs and product pipeline. We believe the application of botulinum toxin type A without an injection using Revance’s MTS technology, as well as the development of new botulinum toxin molecules, will be of interest globally and play a major role in the development of new non-invasive treatment alternatives.”

In addition to the financing, Revance and Bio*One Capital will explore opportunities to establish operations in Asia for the purpose of developing and commercializing aesthetic medicine products based on Revance’s proprietary MTS drug delivery technology. Revance will examine the potential of certain therapeutic agents and MTS delivery to address other large unmet needs within aesthetic and therapeutic dermatology.

“We are excited by the key differentiating advantages of Revance’s MTS technology,” said Swee-Yeok Chu, Chief Executive of Bio*One Capital. “We believe that these will give the company a competitive edge when developing new products for the large and growing Asian markets for aesthetic medicines.”
