LICENSEE's performance.

     5.2 LICENSEE shall report to BAYLOR the date of first sale of Licensed
Products in each country within thirty (30) days of occurrence.

     5.3 LICENSEE shall submit to BAYLOR within thirty (30) days after March 31,

country;

(ii) total billings for such Licensed Products;

front page of the Agreement.

     5.5 All payments due hereunder shall be deemed received when funds are

payment is due. No transfer, exchange, collection or other charges, INCLUDING
ANY WIRE TRANSFER FEES, shall be deducted from such payments.

     5.6 Late payments shall be subject to a charge of one and one-half percent

                                       -4-
<PAGE>
Said late payment charge and the payment and acceptance thereof shall not negate
or waive the right of BAYLOR to seek any other remedy, legal or equitable, to
which it may be entitled because of the delinquency of any payment.

     5.7 If payments are sent by check, they shall be sent to the address listed
in Paragraph 14.1. If payments are sent by wire transfer, they shall be sent

change of make-up, organization, or identity, LICENSEE shall notify BAYLOR in
writing within thirty (30) days of such event.

     5.9 If LICENSEE or sublicensee (or optionee) does not qualify as a "small
entity" as provided by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, LICENSEE
must notify BAYLOR immediately.

6.   RECORDS AND INSPECTION

     LICENSEE shall maintain or cause to be maintained a true and correct set of
records pertaining to the Net Sales of Licensed Products by LICENSEE under this
Agreement. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years
thereafter, LICENSEE agrees to permit an accountant selected and paid by BAYLOR
and reasonably acceptable to LICENSEE to have access during ordinary business
hours to such records as are maintained by LICENSEE as may be necessary, in the
opinion of such accountant, to determine the correctness of any report and/or
payment made under this Agreement. In the event that the audit reveals an
underpayment of royalty by more than five percent (5%), the cost of the audit
shall be paid by LICENSEE. If the underpayment is less than five percent (5%)
but more than two percent (2%), LICENSEE and BAYLOR shall each pay fifty percent
(50%) of the cost of the independent audit. Such accountant shall maintain in
confidence, and shall not disclose to BAYLOR, any information concerning
LICENSEE or its operations or properties other than information directly
relating to the correctness of such reports and payments. BAYLOR will be
entitled to no more than one examination per year without LICENSEE's written
consent.

7.   SUBLICENSES

     All sublicensee granted by LICENSEE of its rights hereunder shall be
subject to the terms of this Agreement. LICENSEE shall be responsible for its
sublicensees and shall not grant any rights which are inconsistent with the
rights granted to and obligations of LICENSEE hereunder. Any act or omission of
a sublicensee which would be a breach of this Agreement if performed by LICENSEE
shall be deemed to be a breach by LICENSEE of this Agreement. Each sublicense
agreement granted by LICENSEE shall include an audit right by BAYLOR of the same
scope as provided in Section 6 hereof with respect to LICENSEE. No such
sublicense agreement shall contain any provision which would cause it to extend
beyond the term of this Agreement. LICENSEE shall give BAYLOR prompt
notification of the identity and address of each sublicensee with whom it
concludes a sublicense agreement and shall supply BAYLOR with a copy of each
such sublicense agreement.

8.   PATENTS AND INFRINGEMENT

     8.1 From the Agreement Date and for the term of this Agreement, LICENSEE
shall have primary responsibility using patent counsel of its choice reasonably
acceptable to BAYLOR for filing, prosecuting and maintaining all patent
applications and patents included in the Patent Rights licensed hereunder,
except that BAYLOR may assume responsibility at its sole expense for pursuing
any protection which LICENSEE declines to prosecute pursuant to Paragraph 8.2 of
this Agreement.


                                       -5-
<PAGE>
     8.2 During the term of this Agreement, if LICENSEE decides not to file any
or all United States and foreign applications or to continue prosecution of a
patent application to issuance or maintain any United States or foreign patent
application or patent, LICENSEE shall timely notify BAYLOR in writing in order
that BAYLOR may file the United States and foreign applications and continue the
prosecution or maintenance of such patent applications at its own expense. If
LICENSEE fails to notify BAYLOR in sufficient time for BAYLOR to assume the
cost, LICENSEE shall be considered in default of this Agreement.

     8.3 During the term of this Agreement, LICENSEE agrees to prosecute with
good faith and due diligence all such patent applications and to take all
actions reasonably necessary to maintain and enforce the patents and proprietary
rights in and to the Patent Rights.

     8.4 During the term of this Agreement LICENSEE shall instruct counsel for
LICENSEE to keep BAYLOR reasonably informed, at LICENSEE's expense, of
prosecutions pursuant to this Section 8 including submitting to BAYLOR copies of
all official actions and responses thereto.

     8.5 BAYLOR agrees to cooperate with LICENSEE to whatever extent is
necessary to procure patent protection of any rights, including fully agreeing
to execute any and all documents to give LICENSEE the full benefit of the
licenses granted herein.

     8.6 During the term of this Agreement, each Party shall promptly inform the
other of any suspected infringement of any claims in the Patent Rights or the
misuse, misappropriation, theft or breach of confidence of other proprietary
rights in the Patent Rights by a third party, and with respect to such
activities as are suspected. Any action or proceeding against such third party
shall be instituted as following:

(i) BAYLOR and LICENSEE may agree to jointly institute an action for
infringement, misuse, misappropriation, theft or breach of confidence of the
proprietary rights against such third party. Such joint action shall be brought
in the names of both BAYLOR and LICENSEE. If BAYLOR or LICENSEE decide to
jointly prosecute an action or proceeding after it has been instituted by one
Party, the action shall be continued in the name or names they both agree is
expedient for efficient prosecution of such action. LICENSEE and BAYLOR shall
agree to the manner in which they shall exercise control over any joint action
or proceeding, providing however that if they cannot agree BAYLOR shall have the
right to unilaterally decide on control. In such joint action or proceeding, the
out-of-pocket costs shall be borne equally, and any recovery or settlement shall
be shared equally.

(ii) If LICENSEE does not agree to participate in a joint action or proceeding
then BAYLOR shall have the right, but not the obligation, to institute an action
for infringement, misuse, misappropriation, theft or breach of confidence of the
proprietary rights against such third party. If BAYLOR elects to institute
action, it does so at its own cost. If BAYLOR fails to bring such an action or
proceeding within a period of three (3) months after receiving notice or
otherwise having knowledge of such infringement, then LICENSEE shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to prosecute the same at its own expense. Should
either BAYLOR or LICENSEE commence suit under the provisions of this Paragraph
8.6 and thereafter elect to abandon the same, it shall give timely notice to the
other Party who may, if it so desires, continue prosecution of such action or
proceeding. All recoveries, whether by judgment, award, decree or settlement,
from infringement or misuse of Patent Rights shall be apportioned as follows:
(a) the Party bringing the action or proceeding shall first recover an amount
equal the costs and expenses incurred by such Party directly related to the
prosecution of such action or proceeding, (b) the Party cooperating in such
action or proceeding shall then recover costs and expenses incurred by such
Party directly related to its cooperation in the prosecution of such action or
proceeding and (c) the remainder shall be divided equally between LICENSEE and
BAYLOR.


                                       -6-
<PAGE>
     8.7 Neither BAYLOR nor LICENSEE shall settle any action covered by
Paragraph 8.6 without first obtaining the consent of the other Party, which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

     8.8 BAYLOR shall not be liable for any losses incurred as the result of an
action for infringement brought against LICENSEE as the result of LICENSEE's
exercise of any right granted under this Agreement. The decision to defend or
not defend shall be in LICENSEE's sole discretion.

9.   TERM AND EXPIRATION

     Unless sooner terminated as otherwise provided in Section 10, the license
to employ Patent Rights granted herein as part of Section 2 shall expire on a
country-by-country basis, on the later of (i) the date of expiration of the last
of the Patent Rights to expire or (ii) in the event no patents included within
the Patent Rights issue in such country, the first date following the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the first commercial sale of Licensed Products by LICENSEE
in such country. After such expiration, LICENSEE shall have a perpetual,
paid-in-full (i.e., royalty free) license in such country.

10.  TERMINATION

     10.1 In the event of default or failure by LICENSEE to perform any of the
terms, covenants or provisions of this Agreement, LICENSEE shall have thirty
(30) days after the giving of written notice of such default by BAYLOR to
correct such default. If such default is not corrected within the said thirty
(30) day period, BAYLOR shall have the right, at its option, to cancel and
terminate this Agreement. The failure of BAYLOR to exercise such right of
termination, for non-payment of royalties/fees or otherwise, shall not be deemed
to be a waiver of any right BAYLOR might have, nor shall such failure preclude
BAYLOR from exercising or enforcing said right upon any subsequent failure by
LICENSEE.

     10.2 BAYLOR shall have the right, at its option, to cancel and terminate
this Agreement in the event that LICENSEE shall (i) become involved in
insolvency, dissolution, bankruptcy or receivership proceedings affecting the
operation of its business or (ii) make an assignment of all or substantially all
of its assets for the benefit of creditors, or in the event that (iii) a
receiver or trustee is appointed for LICENSEE and LICENSEE shall, after the
expiration of thirty (30) days following any of the events enumerated above,
have been unable to secure a dismissal, stay or other suspension of such
proceedings.

     10.3 LICENSEE shall have the right in its sole discretion to terminate this
Agreement upon sixty (60) days' written notice to BAYLOR.

     10.4 In the event of termination of this Agreement, all rights in the
Patent Rights conveyed by BAYLOR to LICENSEE shall automatically revert to
BAYLOR, and BAYLOR shall be free to license such rights to third parties.

     10.5 LICENSEE shall provide, in all sublicenses granted by it under this
Agreement, that LICENSEE's interest in such sublicenses shall, at BAYLOR's
option, terminate or be assigned to BAYLOR upon termination of this Agreement.

     10.6 In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 10,
or expires as provided for in Section 9, BAYLOR is under no obligation to refund
any payments made by LICENSEE to BAYLOR, as set forth in Section 4, prior to the
effective date of such termination or expiration.


                                       -7-
<PAGE>
     10.7 No termination of this Agreement shall constitute a termination or a
waiver of any rights of either Party against the other Party accruing at or
prior to the time of such termination. The obligations of Sections 6, 7, 13, 15
and 16 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

11.  ASSIGNABILITY

     LICENSEE may assign this Agreement as part of:

(i) A sale or other transfer of LICENSEE's entire business; or

(ii) A sale or other transfer of that part of LICENSEE's business to which the
license granted hereby relates;

and upon payment by LICENSEE to BAYLOR of an assignment fee of ***. LICENSEE
shall give BAYLOR thirty (30) days prior written notice of such assignment,
including the new contact information of assignee. BAYLOR, however, shall not be
deemed to have approved such assignment and transfer unless and until such
assignee has agreed in writing to BAYLOR to be bound by all the terms and
provisions of this Agreement and BAYLOR has received the assignment fee as
specified above, in which event LICENSEE shall be released of liability
hereunder. Upon such assignment of this Agreement by such assignee, the term "
LICENSEE" as used herein shall include such assignee.

12.  GOVERNMENTAL COMPLIANCE

     12.1 LICENSEE shall at all times during the term of this Agreement and for
so long as it shall use the Patent Rights, or sell Licensed Products, comply and
cause its sublicensees to comply with all laws that may control the import,
export, manufacture, use, sale, marketing, distribution and other commercial
exploitation of the Patent Rights, Licensed Products or any other activity
undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

     12.2 LICENSEE agrees that Licensed Products leased or sold in the United
States shall be manufactured substantially in the United States.

13.  ARBITRATION

     13.1 Amicable Resolution. The Parties shall attempt to settle any
controversy between them amicably. To this end, a senior executive from each
Party shall consult and negotiate to reach a solution. The Parties agree that
the period of amicable resolution shall toll any otherwise applicable statute of
limitations. However, nothing in this clause shall preclude any Party from
commencing mediation if said negotiations do not result in a signed written
settlement agreement within thirty (30) days after written notice that these
amicable resolution negotiations have commenced.

     13.2 Mediation. If a controversy arises out of or relates to this
agreement, or the breach thereof, and if the controversy cannot be settled

The Party seeking mediation shall propose five mediators, each of whom shall be
a lawyer licensed to practice by the state of Texas, having practiced actively
in the field of commercial law for at least fifteen (15) years, to the other
Party who shall select the mediator from the list. The Parties shall split the
cost of the mediator equally. The Parties agree that the period of mediation
shall toll any otherwise applicable statute of limitations. However, nothing in
this clause shall preclude any Party from commencing arbitration if said
negotiations do not result in a signed written settlement agreement within sixty
(60) days after written notice that amicable resolution negotiations have
commenced.

disclosure of Confidential Information and, in every reasonable way, to
cooperate and to assist the disclosing Party to regain possession of the
Confidential Information and to prevent its further unauthorized use.

scientists, researchers, employees, officers, trustees or agents assume any
responsibility for the manufacture, product specifications, sale or use of the

each is an independent contractor and that neither Party shall be considered to

purpose whatsoever, and that neither Party has any authority to enter into a
contract, to assume any obligation or to give warranties or representations on
behalf of the other Party. Nothing in this relationship shall be construed to
create a relationship of joint venture, partnership, fiduciary or other similar
relationship between the Parties.

     16.5 Non-Waiver. The Parties covenant and agree that if a Party fails or
neglects for any reason to take advantage of any of the terms provided for the
termination of this Agreement or if a Party, having the right to declare this
Agreement terminated, shall fail to do so, any such failure or neglect by such
Party shall not be a waiver or be deemed or be construed to be a waiver of any
cause for the termination of this Agreement subsequently arising, or as a waiver
of any of the terms, covenants or


                                      -13-

violate any public policy, statutory or common law, rule, regulation, treaty or
decision of any government agency or executive body thereof of any country or
community or association of countries, and that if any word, sentence, paragraph
or clause or combination thereof of this Agreement is found, by a court or
executive body with judicial powers having jurisdiction over this Agreement or
any of the Parties hereto, in a final, unappealable order to be in violation of
any such provision in any country or community or association of countries, such
words, sentences, paragraphs or clauses or combination shall be inoperative in
such country or community or association of countries, and the remainder of this
Agreement shall remain binding upon the Parties hereto.

     16.7 Force Majeure. No liability hereunder shall result to a Party by
reason of delay in performance caused by force majeure, that is circumstances
beyond the reasonable control of the Party, including, without limitation, acts
of God, fire, flood, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor unrest, or shortage of
or inability to obtain material or equipment.

     16.8 Entire Agreement. The terms and conditions herein constitute the
entire agreement between the Parties and shall supersede all previous
agreements, either oral or written, between the Parties hereto with respect to
the subject matter hereof. No agreement of understanding bearing on this
Agreement shall be binding upon either Party hereto unless it shall be in
