Press Release

4SC AG: Dr Jörg Neermann announces resignation from Supervisory Board

Planegg-Martinsried, Germany, 2 May 2012 - 4SC AG (Frankfurt, Prime
Standard: VSC), a discovery and development company of targeted small
molecule drugs for autoimmune diseases and cancer, today announced that Dr
Jörg Neermann has informed the company that he will resign from his
position as chairman and member of the Supervisory Board of 4SC AG
effective 31 May 2012. Dr Neermann is resigning of his own accord and for
personal reasons. Dr Neermann has been a member of the Supervisory Board of
4SC AG since 3 August 2000 and previously had been a member of the Advisory
Board of the predecessor company, 4SC GmbH.

4SC thanks Dr Neermann for his many years of commendable service and his
dedication to the work of the Supervisory Board. Dr Thomas Werner, deputy
chairman of the Supervisory Board of 4SC AG, will be assuming the position
of chairman of the Supervisory Board on an interim basis from 1 June 2012.
Following the departure of Dr Neermann, the Supervisory Board will initiate
proceedings for the election of a new Supervisory Board chairman and deputy
chairman as soon as possible.

Dr Thomas Werner, deputy chairman of the 4SC Supervisory Board, said: 'Dr
Neermann has made an outstanding contribution to the company's prestige and
to the establishment of 4SC as one of Germany's most innovative
biotechnology companies. We regret that Dr Neermann will be leaving us and
thank him for his dedication over the years and his successful work as
chairman of the 4SC Supervisory Board.'





Dr Ulrich Dauer, Chief Executive Officer of 4SC AG, commented: 'Dr Neermann
has contributed invaluable support to and had decisive impact on the
successful development of 4SC for over 13 years. Not only as an investor in
all of the company's rounds of venture capital financing, from the initial
financing in 1999 to the public listing in 2005, but also as a member -
and, from 2003, as chairman - of the 4SC Supervisory Board. On behalf of
the entire 4SC Management Board and the entire company, I wish to thank Dr
Neermann for his magnificent contribution to 4SC's success and for his
dedicated and constructive collaboration as a friend of our company. I wish
him all the best for the future.'
