SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brower Piven Encourages Investors With Losses Over $100,000 in Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. to Contact the Firm Before the Lead Plaintiff Deadline in Class Action Lawsuit -- PVCT


STEVENSON, Md., July 22, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee on behalf of purchasers of Provectus Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Provectus" or the "Company") (NYSE MKT:PVCT) publicly traded securities during the period between December 17, 2013 and May 22, 2014, inclusive (the "Class Period"), and informs investors who wish to become proactively involved in the litigation that they have until July 28, 2014 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff.

If you have suffered a loss from investment in Provectus securities purchased on or after December 17, 2013 and held through the revelation of negative information during and/or at the end of the Class Period, as described below, and would like to learn more about this lawsuit and your ability to participate as a lead plaintiff, without cost or obligation to you, please visit our website at http://www.browerpiven.com/currentsecuritiescases.html. You may also request more information by contacting Brower Piven either by email at hoffman@browerpiven.com or by telephone at (410) 415-6616.

No class has yet been certified in the above action. Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff. If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff no later than July 28, 2014 and be selected by the Court. The lead plaintiff will direct the litigation and participate in important decisions including whether to accept a settlement and how much of a settlement to accept for the Class in the action. The lead plaintiff will be selected from among applicants claiming the largest loss from investment in Company units during the Class Period.

The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the defendants' failure to disclose during the Class Period the true prospects for PV-10 and that new skin cancer drugs being developed may have rendered PV-10 obsolete.

According to the complaint, following an article published on TheStreet.com on January 23, 2014 suggesting that PV-10 may be obsolete and another article appearing on SeekingAlpha.com on May 21, 2014 asserting that the Company was tied to a stock promotion company whose other stock recommendations had recently had trading in their stock halted by the SEC, the shares of Provectus declined significantly in value and then stopped trading.

Attorneys at Brower Piven have extensive experience in litigating securities and other class action cases and have been advocating for the rights of shareholders since the 1980s. If you choose to retain counsel, you may retain Brower Piven without financial obligation or cost to you, or you may retain other counsel of your choice. You need take no action at this time to be a member of the class.
