Exhibit 99.1
BOSTON LIFE SCIENCES MOVES INTO NEW HEADQUARTERS
HOPKINTON—(BUSINESS WIRE)—September 13, 2005—Boston Life Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: BLSI) today announced that it has relocated to new headquarters in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, and subleased its former headquarters on Newbury Street in Boston.
It is anticipated that the relocation will afford the Company several benefits. The relocation is expected to reduce on-going overhead expenses for facility operation which the company believes will allow a greater share of financial resources to be devoted to program and business development. Subleases for the Newbury Street facility were finalized and delivered on September 9, 2005 with tenants that have agreed to lease the facility for the remainder of the existing lease terms. The lease for the Hopkinton headquarters expires in June 2008 providing the Company with increased flexibility and expansion possibilities going forward.
Hopkinton is located 26 miles southwest of Boston. The town provides a biotech friendly environment easily accessible from both Boston and Providence airports.
The Company will also maintain additional short term leased office space in Woburn, Massachusetts to accommodate certain research and administrative personnel.
The Company’s new postal address and phone numbers are as follows:
Boston Life Sciences, Inc.
85 Main Street
Hopkinton, MA 01748
