NEWS

5/29/07: CuraGen announced the acquisition of 454 Life Sciences by Roche Holdings, Inc. has been completed.

"We are delighted with the completion of this strategic initiative which provides a significant infusion of non-dilutive capital to CuraGen. The proceeds from the transaction will strengthen our balance sheet, which we believe now provides approximately three years of operating cash to fund our current clinical development program and allows us to bring potentially one or more programs into Phase III during 2008," commented Dr. Frank Armstrong, President and Chief Executive Office of CuraGen.
