A Phase 2, Double-blind and Placebo Dose Ranging Study of Repeat Doses of AA4500 for the Treatment of Edematous Fibrosclerotic Panniculopathy

To assess the safety and effectiveness of repeat doses of AA4500 in the treatment of
edematous fibrosclerotic panniculopathy (EFP) commonly known as cellulite in adult women.

The Phase 2a study is a randomized, double-blind multiple-dose study that is expected to
enroll approximately 144 women between the ages of 18 and 45 in the United States. Treatment
effectiveness will be evaluated by investigator and patient assessments, as well as 3-D
photographic imaging techniques. Once the safety and local tolerability profile from the
first stage has been found to be acceptable subjects will be enrolled in stage 2. After an
interim safety and local tolerability review was completed of all subjects in stage 1, it was
determined that enrollment in stage 2 is acceptable and has been initiated.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Be a female between 18 to 45 years of age.

2. Have at least one well defined dimple that is at least 1 cm but not more than 2 cm
along the long axis and that is evident when the subject is standing

hormonal [estrogen/progestin] contraceptives, or barrier control) for at least one
