to  a  maximum  of  $150,000  under  this  Paragraph , payable on the terms and
conditions described in Paragraph .

7. Cengent and Company have separately signed  a  non-disclosure agreement that
continues to apply to them even after signing this Agreement.

8. Company will provide to Cengent the crystal structures,  determined by X-ray
crystallography,  of  the  Id1/E47 heterodimer and Id1/Id1 homodimer,  and  (a)
Cengent will promptly thereafter  undertake  a  structure  audit  of  Company's
Protein  Target  to  confirm that Company's Protein Target will be accepted  by
Cengent into its Genes-to-Leads{reg-trade-mark} program; (b) Cengent shall send
Company  written  notice  (e-mail  shall  constitute  written  notice)  whether
Company's Protein Target  is  so accepted, and (c) if so accepted, Cengent will
provide the Cengent Basic Services  described  below  and Company shall, within
five days of that notice, pay Cengent the Basic Services Fee.

9. The  Standard Terms and Conditions attached as Exhibit  C  are  incorporated
into this  Agreement by this reference to the same effect as if they were fully
set forth in this Agreement.

                           CENGENT'S BASIC SERVICES

10.Cengent will  determine  and  define the DynaPharm{reg-trade-mark} templates
(virtual constructs, derived from  dynamic simulations of the Company's protein
target) and search queries for drug screening of Company's Protein Target.


                                                                    Page 1 of 3
<PAGE>


11.Cengent  will  use  its in silico chemical  library  of  publicly  available
chemical compounds, and computationally search  the said database of compounds.
The goal of the search and  screening  will  be to determine the compounds more
likely to have activity against Company's Protein Target and thereby narrow the
list of potentially appropriate and effective  compounds  so  as  to  provide a
smaller  number  of  starting  points  for  possible  lead optimization and the
foundation for composition-of-matter or use patent coverage with leads that can
be validated with wet chemistry. By the Expected Delivery  Date,  Cengent  will
complete  a  three  dimensional ("3-D") structure analysis of Company's Protein
Target and deliver to Company the following (the "CENGENT DELIVERIES"):

      (a)a list of molecules  (compounds)  identified  by Cengent's proprietary
DynaPharm{reg-trade-mark} methodology and in silico screening  (the  "CANDIDATE
COMPOUNDS")  for  which Company shall pay Cengent the Lead Identification  List
Fee.

12.Cengent's experience  is  that  its  Genes-to-Leads{reg-trade-mark}  program
typically  yields  200  to 300 "drug-like" compounds, in silico, within 2 to  4
months and that 2% to 24%  of  the  compounds  have exhibited an IC50 < 30uM in
vitro. However, Cengent provides Company no assurance  whatsoever  that Cengent
will have similar success with respect to Company's Protein Target or Candidate
Compounds.

                          COMPANY'S BASIC OBLIGATIONS

13.Company  shall  undertake  lab-based  screening  of the Candidate Compounds,
including   synthesizing   and/or  otherwise  acquiring  Candidate   Compounds,
developing  in  vitro  and  cell-based  assays,  and  running  those  Candidate
Compounds through assays. Attached  as  Exhibit A is the screening protocols to
be used in the study. Company will complete  the  screening  within 120 days of
its  receipt of the Candidate Compounds list (the "SCREENING COMPLETION  DATE")
except for those compounds that require synthesis in which case these compounds
will be  tested within 30 days of receipt of compound. Attached as Exhibit B is
the success  criteria  to  be  used  in  determining activity of the identified
compounds. Company will provide Cengent with  all  screening  results and shall
pay Cengent the Lead Identification Activity Fees for any compound  that  meets
these criteria.  The selection of what chemicals among the Candidate Compounds
to test will be at the sole discretion of the Company.

14.Company  shall,  by  the  30th  day after the Screening Completion Date (the
"COMPANY DECISION DATE"), notify Cengent  in  writing  which  of  the Candidate
Compounds,  if  any,  Company has selected for lead optimization (the  "COMPANY
SELECTION NOTICE"). Each  compound  so selected shall be referred to as a "LEAD
OPTIMIZATION COMPOUND" and they shall  collectively be referred to as the "LEAD
OPTIMIZATION COMPOUNDS." Failure by Company to timely provide that notice means
there is no Lead Optimization Compound selected by Company.

15.(Use this paragraph for any other terms not otherwise referenced herein.)

                               LEAD OPTIMIZATION

16.Company shall, concurrent with sending  the  Company  Selection Notice, make
the payment(s) to Cengent as indicated in Paragraph  above. Also, Company shall
pay  $150,000  to  Cengent  upon  selecting  by Company of a Lead  Optimization
Compound  or  a  derivative  (e.g.,  homologs,  analogs,  polymorphs,  isomers,
prodrugs  and formulations of the Lead Optimization  Compound),  payable  as  a
number of shares of Company stock based on the most recent stock price accepted
by an independent investor in an arm's length transaction.

17.Subject  to Company's timely fulfillment of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, including  the  payment  terms,  Cengent  agrees,  as  to  each Lead
Optimization  Compound,  not to: (a) include the Lead Optimization Compound  on
any list of compounds delivered  by  Cengent to any person or entity outside of


                                                                    Page 2 of 3
<PAGE>


Cengent with respect to any human therapeutic  research,  development or use by
that person or entity; (b) research or develop that Lead Optimization  Compound
with  respect  to  any  human therapeutic commercial product that would include
that Lead Optimization Compound  or  a  derivative  as  an  active  ingredient;
(c) disclose  to  anyone  outside  of  Cengent that Company is researching  and
developing the Lead Optimization Compound with respect to the Company's Protein
Target.


                               Intellectual Property

18.Company should consult with its patent  counsel regarding whether: (a) a use
patent may be available for a Lead Optimization  Compounds;  (b) a composition-
of-matter  patent  is  available  since said compounds are generally  "publicly
known;" and (c) upon Company optimizing  a  Candidate  Compound lead, Company's
ability to file a composition-of-matter patent on the new  compound  if  it  is
novel.  The ownership of  any new  intellectual  property  generated during the
course of  the joint  effort shall  be  determined  based  on  US  intellectual
property law.  However, Cengent will grant, subject to the economic terms noted
above, a sole and exclusive, worldwide, license at no added cost to the Company
to any intellectual property generated in the  joint effort  that is ultimately
assigned to Cengent.


                             Communication of Progress

19.Members of the  Cengent and  Company  technical  staff  will confer at least
twice a month by  either  face-to-face  or by teleconferences during the period
of active computational screening and at other times as needed.

                    EXHIBIT A TO GENES-TO-LEADS(R) AGREEMENT

                 COMPANY CANDIDATE COMPOUND SCREENING PROTOCOL



                                PRIMARY SCREEN

Overexpression of an E protein in Hela cells drives the expression of a
luciferase reporter gene by binding to E boxes engineered upstream of the
enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP) gene.  The E proteins and the
reporter gene are introduced with a neomycin resistant gene and neoR,
luciferase+clones are selected in G418 (0.5 mg/ml).  Upon introduction of a
pasmid overexpressing Id1 with a hygromycin resistance gene, neoR/hygroR clones
that have enough Id to sequester the E proteins and are therefore EGFP negative
are selected.  To confirm that the loss of EGFP expression is due to Id1
expression and not a permanent silencing by other means, antisense Id1 or Id1
siRNAs are introduced and clones that re-express EGFP are selected.  These
clones then represent a permanent "reporter" cell line for the identification
of compounds that when added to a solution containing the cell line interfere
with the Id1-E protein interaction and thereby reactivate EGFP which can be
monitored in a multi-well formatted assay.  In this assay, inhibitory activity
is detected as an increase in green fluorescence.


                               SECONDARY SCREEN

Homogenous time-resolved resonance (HTRF) is a technique that allows the
measurement of interactions between two molecules in solution.  The basic
principle of HTRF is that when two molecules are in close proximity, an energy
transfer from the donor to the acceptor occurs.  The energy donor-acceptor pair
in HTRF is respectively europium cryptate and XL665.  In the assay, 200 nM of
His-E47 is coated with 10nM of anti-His-cryptate antibody and 100nM of GST-Id1
is coated with 20nM of anti-GST-XL665 antibody.  Upon excitation of cryptate at
a wavelength of 337nm, crypate emits energy at a wavelength of 620nm.  If GST-
Id1 and His-E47 come into close proximity (i.e. interact with each other), this
energy emitted by cryptate gets transferred to the acceptor XL665, which re-
emits a specific long-lived fluorescence at 665nm.  With this assay, Id1 was
found to interact very tightly with E47 with a KD of 1 nM in 100 mM NaCl.
although this tight affinity decreases in the presence of 300 mM NaCl.  In the
assay, the GST-bound to the anti-GST-XL665 antibody is pretreated with the test
compound.  Inhibitory activity is detected by diminished fluorescence when the
complex is combined with the His-E47 compex with the anti-His-cryptate
antibody.


                                TERTIARY SCREEN

Selected test compounds will be evaluated in the standard in vivo matrigel plug
assay.  Matrigel consists of basement membrane components extracted from
Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm tumor and is a liquid at 4 degrees Celsius and a solid at
37 degrees Celsius.  For the in vivo test, liquid matrigel is mixed with VEGF
to induce spontaneous and aggressive angiogenesis, and the solution (0.5 mL) is
injected into the ventral regions of mice where it forms a small plug. Owing to
the presence of VEGF,endothelial cells migrate into the plug and form new blood
vessels.  After 7 days, the plugs are removed and sectioned in paraffin and the
level of angiogenesis is measured after staining to visualize the endothelial
cells and vessels.  The test compounds are added to the plug prior to injection
into the animal and their effect on the angiogenesis determined.  An inhibitory
effect is observed as a decrease in tube formation in the plug.

3.3.Survival of Obligations.  The termination or expiration  of  the  Agreement
    ------------------------
   shall  not  relieve  the  parties  of any obligations accruing prior to such
   termination, and any such termination  shall  be  without  prejudice  to the
   rights  of either party against the other.  The provisions of Section  shall
   survive any termination of the Agreement.
4. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
4.1.Dispute  Resolution  Process.   Both parties understand and appreciate that
    -----------------------------
   their long term mutual interest will be best served by affecting a rapid and
   fair resolution of any claims or disputes  which  may  arise out of services
   performed under this contract or from any dispute concerning  the  terms  of
   the  Agreement.   Therefore, both parties agree to use their best efforts to
   resolve all such disputes  as  rapidly  as  possible on a fair and equitable
   basis.  Toward this end, both parties agree to  develop and follow a process
   for  presenting,  rapidly  assessing,  and settling claims  on  a  fair  and
   equitable basis that takes into account  the  precise  subject and nature of
   the dispute.
4.2.Dispute  Resolution  Panel.   If  any  dispute or claim arising  under  the
    ---------------------------
   Agreement cannot be or is not readily resolved  by  the  parties pursuant to
   the process described above, then the parties agree to refer the matter to a
   panel  consisting of the Chief Executive Officer of Cengent  and  the  Chief
   Executive Officer of Company or their designees for review and a non-binding
   resolution.   A  copy  of the terms of the Agreement, agreed upon facts (and
   areas of disagreement),  and  concise (3 pages or less) summary of the basis
   for each side's contentions will be provided to both such officers who shall
   review the same, confer and attempt  to  reach  a  mutual  resolution of the
   issue.  The described material shall be provided within ten  days  of either
   party  giving  the  other  written  notice that the party sending the notice
   wants to avail itself of the process described in this Section .
4.3.Arbitration.
    ------------
   4.3.1.If,  by thirtieth day following  the  notice  described  in  the  last
        sentence  of Section  above, the matter has not been resolved utilizing
        the foregoing  process and the parties are unwilling to accept the non-
        binding decision  of  the  dispute  resolution  panel,  either  or both
        parties  may  elect  to  pursue  definitive  resolution through binding
        arbitration, which the parties agree to accept in lieu of litigation or
        other  legally  available  remedies (with the exception  of  injunctive
        relief  where  such  relief  is  necessary  to  protect  a  party  from
        irreparable  harm  pending  the  outcome   of   any   such  arbitration
        proceeding).   Binding arbitration shall be settled in accordance  with
        the  Rules  of  the   American  Arbitration  Association  by  a  single
        arbitrator chosen in accordance  with  such  Rules.   If  such  dispute
        relates   primarily   to  patent  rights  relating  to  Products,  such
        arbitrator shall be selected  in such a manner to ensure that he or she
        will have sufficient technical  expertise and training to handle such a
        dispute.
   4.3.2.As  set forth in Section , the Agreement  shall  be  governed  by  and
        construed  in  accordance  with  the  substantive  laws of the State of
        California  without  regard  to  the  conflicts  of laws provisions  of
        California.   The  arbitration  will be held in San Diego,  California.
        Judgment upon the award rendered  may  be  entered  in any court having
        jurisdiction  and  the parties hereby consent to the said  jurisdiction
        and venue, and further  irrevocably  waive  any  objection which either
        party  may  have  now  or  hereafter  to  the  laying of venue  of  any
        proceedings in said courts and to any claim that  such proceedings have
        been  brought in an inconvenient forum, and further  irrevocably  agree
        that a judgment or order in any such proceeding shall be conclusive and
        binding upon the parties and may be enforced in the courts of any other
        jurisdiction.
4.4.No Consequential  Damages.   IN  NO  EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS
    --------------------------
   RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO THE  OTHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES
   FOR  SPECIAL,  INDIRECT,  INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL  DAMAGES,  WHETHER  IN
   CONTRACT,  WARRANTY,  TORT,  NEGLIGENCE,   STRICT  LIABILITY  OR  OTHERWISE,
   INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF PROFITS  OR  REVENUE,  OR  CLAIMS  OF
   CUSTOMERS OF ANY OF THEM OR OTHER THIRD PARTIES FOR SUCH OR OTHER DAMAGES.

    --------------
   Agreement  by reason of acts of  God,  acts  of  governments,  riots,  wars,

   5.10.1.Except to the extent already disclosed in that initial  press release
        or  other  public communication, no public announcement concerning  the
        existence or  the terms of the Agreement or concerning the transactions

        Company or Cengent, without first obtaining the approval  of  the other
        party  and  agreement  upon  the  nature,  text,  and  timing  of  such

5.11.Headings.  The captions  to the sections and articles in the Agreement are
     ---------
   not a part of the Agreement,  and  are  included  merely  for convenience of
   reference only and shall not affect its meaning or interpretation.
5.12.Severability.  If any provision of the Agreement becomes or is declared by

   a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable  or void, the
   Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision, so
   long  as  the  Agreement,  taking  into  account  said  voided provision(s),
   continues to provide the parties with the same practical  economic  benefits
   as  the  Agreement  containing said voided provision(s) did on the Effective
   Date.  If, after taking  into  account said voided provision(s), the parties
   are unable to realize the practical  economic  benefit  contemplated  on the

   Agreement to reestablish the practical economic benefit provided the parties
   on the Effective Date.

   the Agreement based on a telecopied signature.  The parties covenant to each
   other that when they use telecopied signatures, they will in a timely manner
   send the other party the original signature.
