Date:7/28/2010

SAN FRANCISCO, July 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Burrill & Company, a San Francisco-based global leader in life sciences with activities in Venture Capital, Private Equity, Merchant Banking and Media, is pleased to announce that Shawn Cross has been appointed CEO of the Burrill Merchant Banking Group, effective immediately.

Mr. Cross will lead the Merchant Banking Group's strategic growth plan, which includes a broad and complementary range of services to address the needs of its clients at various stages in their growth. These include the ability to identify and acquire strategic assets and capabilities; identify and partner with companies who will share the risk and rewards of developing an asset; monetize non-strategic assets through divestiture; and access of capital through a variety of mechanisms. A cornerstone of the plan includes the establishment and development of an Institutional Equities Division.  Burrill Merchant Banking experience covers a wide range within life sciences including biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, drug discovery and enabling technologies, medical devices, agricultural biotechnology and nutraceuticals.

"I am encouraged by the progress we have made during the past year in evolving Burrill Merchant Banking from a sophisticated life sciences advisory business to a full-service investment banking platform," said Mr. Cross. "Overseeing our next stage of growth, which will include Merchant Banking funds that complement our venture business in addition to international expansion, is an exciting proposition. Working with Steve Burrill and the rest of the larger Burrill network has been a wonderful experience and I look forward to being part of the firm's on-going success."
