Item 8. Other Events.
Provectus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCBB: PVCT) (UIR:FRK2541) announced today,
October 27, 2004, that one of the largest national distributors of
pharmaceutical products has accepted delivery of the company's Pure-ific
antibacterial hand spray for sale in 504 stores in the western region of the
United States.
"We are particularly happy to get this campaign started right now, at the onset
of cold and flu season, and we expect to build upon this beginning and extend
sales into other regions of the country," said Pure-fic President Timothy C.
Scott, Ph. D. "This first shipment of product is destined for sales in the
states of California, Utah, Arizona, and Washington."
Pure-ific, which comes in a 1-ounce can, immediately kills up to 99.9 percent of
germs on skin and prevents re-growth for up to six hours. Packaged as a
quick-drying spray, Pure-ific is useful for mothers, travelers, and anyone else
concerned about the spread of germs. Unlike gel sanitizers, Pure-ific
Antibacterial Hand Spray leaves no sticky residue and is appropriate both for
hands and for hard surfaces, such as toilet seats.
Provectus Pharmaceuticals Inc. plans to license and sell products in three
sectors of the health-care industry: 1) prescription medications and treatments,
2) medical devices, and 3) over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceuticals, such as
Pure-ific. Prescription drug products and devices address several forms of
difficult-to-treat cancers as well as diseases of the skin. OTC products address
complementary markets, primarily those involving skin care and comfort.
The company's offices and laboratory are located at 7327 Oak Ridge Highway,
Suite A Knoxville, TN 37931; telephone: 865/769-4011. For more information,
