TM Bioscience Announces Update of Escrow Agreement

TORONTO, ONTARIO--Tm Bioscience today announced that the Company
has not achieved a revenue milestone by a December 31, 1998
deadline. As this revenue milestone is a condition of a recent
financing, $5.2 million of escrowed funds may be rescinded in
January. The $5.2 million was part of a $14.7 million equity
financing that the company completed on June 24th, 1998.

"The missed revenue milestone is a timing issue related to delays
in commencing certain collaborations. We have sufficient funds to
continue development and marketing of our DNA based technologies.
Tm's business plan will remain unaffected by this timing issue",
said Don MacAdadm, President and CEO of TM Bioscience. The Company
is also working with an increasing number of biochip and
diagnostic companies to license Tm's technology.

Recently, TM Bioscience consolidated its Woburn, Massachusetts
operation to the Company's laboratory and corporate headquarters
in Toronto, Ontario. This move will result in increased
efficiencies and focus as the Company unifies its effort to
capitalize on the burgeioning genomics industry. The Company also
announced it is withdrawing its TSE listing application that was
filed in September, 1998. Tm will resubmit an application to the
TSE when it fulfills listing agreements.

Tm Bioscience is an emerging Canadian biotechnology company
developing and commercializing proprietary DNA based technologies
for application in biochips, diagnostics and genomic analysis. The
Company offers pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies the
ability to improve existing technologies and develop novel nucleic
acid-based technologies for medical and research applications.

Tm Bioscience trades on the Vancouver Stock Exchange under the
symbol TMC and has approximately 69 million shares outstanding.
