Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     As previously disclosed, in April 2005, Encysive Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) and the other stockholders of Revotar Biopharmaceuticals AG (“Revotar”) agreed to restructure Revotar’s capitalization (the “Restructuring”). All conditions to the Restructuring have been met and under the terms of the Restructuring Revotar’s stockholders, other than the Company, contributed approximately 1.4 million euros in additional funds to Revotar. We believe Revotar will need to seek additional funding in connection with the development and commercialization of bimosiamose. We cannot assure you that such funding will be available on acceptable terms.

     In connection with the Restructuring the Company has also licensed its worldwide rights to bimosiamose and certain follow-on compounds to Revotar for which it could receive substantial future royalty payments from Revotar in the event that these compounds are subsequently approved and commercialized, or licensed to a third party. Additionally, as agreed under the terms of the Restructuring, Revotar’s other stockholders have exercised their right to purchase all shares of Revotar common stock owned by the Company for nominal consideration.

     A copy of the license agreement is filed as exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated by reference herein.
