     2.5  PURCHASE PRICE. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained

553,344 shares of the Buyer's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("Common
Stock" and the "Consideration Shares", and together with the adjustments set

apportioned among the Sellers as follows: 25% to CG, 50% to Kava and 25% to
SinglePixel. Delivery of stock certificates representing the Consideration
Shares shall be made to each of the Sellers at the Closing. The parties agree
that the Purchase Price represents fair consideration and reasonably equivalent
value for the Purchased Assets.

          (a)  ADJUSTMENTS FOR MILESTONES. Buyer shall make a one-time only
payment:

               (i)  to Kava, or any of its assignees, of [*] payable in either
     cash or shares of the Buyer's Common Stock (at the discretion of the Buyer
     and, if such payment is in Common Stock, valued at the then current fair
     market value of the Common Stock) in a single payment by wire transfer or
     delivery of shares of Common Stock to an account designated in writing by
     Kava, or any of its assignees, to Buyer within sixty (60) days of the
     commencement by Buyer of a Phase III (or other pivotal) clinical trial for
     any drug candidate, the manufacture, use or sale of which infringes one or
     more Valid Claims of the Kava Patents (a "Kava Drug Candidate"). For
     purposes of this Agreement, "Kava Patents" shall mean any and all patent
     filings assigned to Kava or to which Kava has or will have any right,
     title or interest, including the issued patents and pending patent
     applications under the Kava IP (as defined in SCHEDULE 2.1), and all
     non-provisionals, divisionals, continuations, continuations-in-part and
     all patents issuing on any of the foregoing, and all foreign counterparts
     thereof; together with all registrations, reissues, re-examinations,
     supplemental protection certificates and extensions thereof and all
     foreign counterparts thereof. In the event that Buyer commences a Phase
     III (or other pivotal) clinical trial for a drug candidate, the
     manufacture, use of sale of which does not infringe one or more Valid
     Claims of the Kava Patents at the time of the commencement of such
     clinical trial but the manufacture, use or sale of which later infringes
     one or more Valid Claims of the Kava Patents, then Buyer shall make such
     one-time only payment under this subsection (i) of Section 2.5(a) within
     sixty (60) days of the drug candidate becoming a Kava Drug Candidate under
     this Agreement; and

               (ii) to SinglePixel, or any of its assignees, [*] payable in
     either cash or shares of the Buyer's Common Stock (at the discretion of
     the Buyer and, if such payment is in Common Stock, valued at the then
     current fair market value of the Common Stock) in a single payment by wire
     transfer or delivery of shares of Common Stock to an account designated in
     writing by SinglePixel, or any of its assignees, to Buyer within sixty
     (60) days of the receipt by Buyer of approval by the Federal Drug
     Administration of any SinglePixel diagnostic product, the

                                        6
<Page>

     manufacture, use or sale of which infringes one or more Valid Claims of the
     SinglePixel Patents (a "SinglePixel Product"). For purposes of this
     Agreement, "SinglePixel Patents" shall mean any and all patent filings
     assigned to SinglePixel or to which SinglePixel has or will have any right,
     title or interest, including the issued patents and pending patent
     applications identified under the SinglePixel IP (as defined in SCHEDULE
     2.1), and all non-provisionals, divisionals, continuations,
     continuations-in-part and all patents issuing on any of the foregoing, and
     all foreign counterparts thereof; together with all registrations,
     reissues, re-examinations, supplemental protection certificates and
     extensions thereof. In the event that Buyer receives approval by the
     Federal Drug Administration of any SinglePixel diagnostic product, the
     manufacture, use or sale of which does not infringes one or more Valid
     Claims of the SinglePixel Patents at the time of receipt of such approval
     but the manufacture, use or sale of which later infringes one or more Valid
     Claims of the SinglePixel Patents, then Buyer shall make such one-time only
     payment under this subsection (ii) of Section 2.5(a) within sixty (60) days
     of the SinglePixel diagnostic product becoming a SinglePixel Product under
     this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 2.5, the term "diagnostic
     product" means any product which is intended to predict, detect or identify
     a disease, determine the presence of a pathologic condition or monitor the
     course of disease or therapy in humans or other animals.

               (b)  ROYALTIES FOR CERTAIN PATENTS. In the event that Buyer
obtains revenue or other measurable economic benefit ("Gross Revenues") from
products or services covered by a Valid Claim in any Kava Patent or CG Patent
(the "Kava Products", and the "CG Products", respectively), Buyer shall pay
to Kava or CG, or any of their assignees, as the case may be, a percentage of
the Gross Revenues received by Buyer or such licensee from sales of such Kava
Product or CG Product as follows: (i) [*]% of Gross Revenues of the Kava
Product, and (ii) [*]% of Gross Revenues of the CG Product. The amount of
such Gross Revenues shall be proportionately adjusted to reflect the
exclusion of the contribution of ingredients or components not directly
related to the Kava Product and/or CG Product, but in no case less than [*]%
of the rates specified above. Any payments by Buyer pursuant to this
subsection shall be made by cash or check within ninety (90) days of the end
of each fiscal year of Buyer in which any applicable sale is made. The
obligations under this section shall continue on a country-by-country basis
until the later of (1) the expiration date, as such date may be modified or
extended, of the last-to-expire patent of the relevant Kava IP or CG IP (as
the case may be) in such country, or (2) ten (10) years from first commercial
sale of the Kava Product or CG Product. For purposes of this Section 2.5, "CG
Patents" shall mean any and all patent filings assigned to CG or to which CG
has or will have any right, title or interest, including the issued patents
and pending patent applications identified under the CG IP (as defined in
SCHEDULE 2.1), and all non-provisionals, divisionals, continuations,
continuations-in-part; and all patents issuing on any of the foregoing, and
all foreign counterparts thereof; together with all registrations, reissues,
re-examinations, supplemental protection certificates and extensions thereof.

          (c)  THIRD PARTY ROYALTY OFFSET. In the event that in any royalty
period, Buyer, in order to sell any Kava Product or CG Product in any country,
makes royalty payments to one or more third parties ("Third Party Payments") as
consideration for a license to an issued patent or patents owned by such third
party(ies), in the absence of which the Kava Product or CG Product could not
legally be made, used or sold in such country, then Buyer shall have the right

                                        7
<Page>

to reduce the royalties otherwise due pursuant to Section 2.5(b) above for
such Kava Product or CG Product by [*]% of such Third Party Payments.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, such reductions under this subsection (c)
shall in no event reduce such royalty for such Kava Product or CG Product in
any such country to less than [*]% of the rates otherwise specified above.

     2.6  ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PRICE. The Purchase Price shall be allocated
among the Purchased Assets and the covenants not to compete received from the
Sellers and the Stockholder as set forth in SCHEDULE 2.6 attached hereto. The
Sellers and Buyer shall be bound by such allocation for all purposes and to
account for and report the purchase and sale contemplated hereby for all
financial, accounting and Tax purposes in accordance with such allocation.

     2.7  TIME AND PLACE OF CLOSING. The closing of the transactions described
in Sections 2.1 through 2.6 above (the "Closing") shall take place at the
offices of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C., at 11:00 a.m. on
January 9, 2004, or at such other place or time as the parties hereto may agree.
The date and time at which the Closing actually occurs is hereinafter referred
to as the "Closing Date."

     2.8  EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS OF TITLE BY THE SELLERS. At the
Closing, each Seller shall execute and deliver to Buyer the form of Bill of Sale
attached hereto as EXHIBIT A and such deeds, conveyances, bills of sale,
certificates of title, assignments, assurances and other instruments and
documents as Buyer may reasonably request in order to effect the sale,
conveyance, and transfer of the Purchased Assets from the Sellers to the Buyer.
Such instruments and documents shall be sufficient to convey to Buyer good and
merchantable title in all of the Purchased Assets. Each Seller will, from time
to time after the Closing Date, take such additional actions and execute and
deliver such further documents as Buyer may reasonably request in order more
effectively to sell, transfer and convey the Purchased Assets to Buyer and to
place Buyer in position to operate and control all of the Purchased Assets.

     2.9  EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS BY BUYER. At the Closing, Buyer
shall execute and deliver to each Seller an Instrument of Assumption in the form
attached hereto as EXHIBIT B, and such other documents as the Sellers may
reasonably request in order to evidence Buyer's assumption of the Assumed
Liabilities. Buyer will, from time to time after the Closing Date, take such
additional action and deliver such further documents as the Sellers may
reasonably request in order effectively to assume the Assumed Liabilities.

     2.10 CONSENT TO ASSIGNMENT. Upon the terms, and subject to the conditions
set forth in this Agreement, each Seller hereby assigns to the Buyer all of the
Purchased Assets which are capable of assignment without the consent of other
parties.

     Insofar as any Purchased Asset is not assignable to the Buyer without the
agreement of or novation by or consent to the assignment from another party and
no such agreement, novation or consent has been obtained by such Seller on or
prior to Closing Date, this Agreement shall not constitute an assignment or
attempted assignment if such assignment or attempted assignment would constitute
a breach of Seller's obligations related to such Purchased Asset. In the event
that consent or novation is required to such assignment:

                                        8
<Page>

          (a)  the Seller shall use all reasonable endeavors to cooperate with
the Buyer in its efforts to procure such novation or assignment as aforesaid.
The reasonable costs of any such novation or assignment shall be paid by the
Buyer;

          (b)  unless and until any such Purchased Asset shall be novated or
assigned as aforesaid the Seller shall hold such Purchased Asset and any moneys,
goods or other benefits received thereunder as agent of the Buyer and the Buyer
shall (if such sub-contracting is permissible and lawful under such Purchased
Asset in question) as the Seller's sub-contractor perform all the obligations of
the Seller under such Purchased Asset;

          (c)  unless and until any such Purchased Asset shall be novated or
assigned, the Seller will (so far as it lawfully may) give such assistance to
the Buyer (and at the Buyer's cost) as the Buyer may reasonably require to
enable the Buyer to enforce its rights under such Purchased Asset and (without
limitation) will provide access to all relevant books, documents and other
information in relation to such Purchased Asset as the Buyer may reasonably
require from time to time.

made by such Seller to others. Each Seller and the Stockholder, severally but
not jointly, shall indemnify and hold the Buyer harmless from and against any
and all liabilities under the Bulk Sales Acts.

          (b)  BUY-BACK OPTION. If, within thirty (30) months following the
Closing Date, Buyer has not initiated clinical trials for a Kava Product, then
Kava shall have the option to repurchase the Kava IP from Buyer for the sum of
Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) in cash (the "Buy-Back Option").
The Buyer shall deliver a written notice to Kava or any of its authorized
assignees or designees within one month after the start of any such clinical
trial for a product derived from the Kava IP. Kava shall be permitted to assign
the Buy-Back Option to the Stockholder or any member or designee of Stockholder
upon providing written notice to Buyer. The Buy-Back Option shall be exercisable
by Kava or any of its authorized assignees or designees for a period of three
(3) months after said thirty (30) month period ends by providing written notice
of exercise to Buyer. If Kava or any of its authorized assignees or designees
fails to provide such notice within such period, the Buy-Back Option shall
terminate and be of no further force or effect. The Buyer agrees to notify Kava,
or its assignee, when this clinical trial requirement has been satisfied.

the benefit of Buyer those business relationships of Seller existing prior to
the Closing and relating to the Business to be operated by Buyer after the
Closing, including relationships with lessors, regulatory authorities,
licensors, customers, suppliers and others, and Sellers will use reasonable
commercial efforts to satisfy the Retained Liabilities in a manner that is not
detrimental to any of such relationships. After the Closing, Sellers will refer
to Buyer all inquiries relating to the Business. Neither Seller nor any of its
officers, agents or shareholders shall take any action that would reasonably be
expected to diminish the value of the Purchased Assets after the Closing or that
would interfere

steps required to be taken as part of their respective obligations under this
Agreement, and shall (i) furnish upon request to each other such further

summarizing Buyer's activities related to the development and testing of

world of a Kava Product or CG Product, Buyer shall make quarterly royalty
reports to Stockholder for such Kava Product or CG Product (as the case may be)
no later than forty-five (45) days after the end of each such quarter. Each such
royalty report will cover Buyer's most recently completed calendar quarter and
shall include the units sold, gross revenue and royalties payable by Buyer to
the Sellers, or any of their assignees, itemized by product.

          (c)  RIGHT TO AUDIT. Buyer shall keep full and accurate books and
records in sufficient detail so that all amounts due and payable to any Seller
or the Stockholder hereunder can be properly determined. Such books and records
shall be preserved for at least three years from the date of entry to which they
pertain. Such books and records shall be open to inspection at any reasonable
time during business hours not more often than once each calendar year by an
independent certified public accountant selected by the Stockholder for the sole
purpose of verifying reports and payments hereunder. Such independent certified
public accountant shall report the findings of his or her inspection to the
Stockholder but shall under no circumstances report any information other than
information related to the accuracy of such reports and payments. All fees and
expenses of such inspection shall be borne by the Stockholder; provided that, if
such inspection determines that gross revenue reported to Stockholder pursuant
to Section 5.4(b) of this agreement is understated in any quarter by five
percent (5%) or more, then Buyer shall bear all the fees and expenses of such
inspection.

     8.1  SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each and every such
representation and warranty set forth in this Agreement shall survive until the
first anniversary of the Closing Date, except for representations and warranties
relating to the Intellectual Property, which shall survive until the second

     8.2  INDEMNIFICATION BY THE SELLERS AND THE STOCKHOLDER. Each Seller and
the Stockholder shall indemnify, defend and hold Buyer, its officers, directors,
employees, owners, agents and Affiliates, harmless from and in respect of any
and all losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind and nature whatsoever
(including, without limitation, interest and penalties, reasonable expenses of
investigation and court costs, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and
the reasonable fees and disbursements of other professionals) which may be
sustained or suffered by any of them (collectively, "Losses"), arising out of,
resulting from or pertaining to any breach or inaccuracy of any representation
or warranty or the breach of or failure to perform any warranty, covenant,
undertaking or other agreement of a Seller or the Stockholder contained in this
Agreement or any other Purchase Document; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the maximum

limited to the Purchase Price and all other payments received by such Seller and
the Stockholder hereunder.

     8.3  INDEMNIFICATION BY BUYER. Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold each

entitled to recover the total amount of such claims.

                                       24
<Page>

     8.5  NOTICE AND OPPORTUNITY TO DEFEND. If there occurs an event which a
party asserts is an indemnifiable event pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3, the
parties seeking indemnification shall promptly notify the other parties
obligated to provide indemnification (collectively, the "Indemnifying Party").
If such event involves (a) any Claim or (b) the commencement of any action, suit
or proceeding by a third person, the party seeking indemnification will give
such Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of such Claim or the commencement
of such action, suit or proceeding, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the failure to
provide prompt notice as provided herein will relieve the Indemnifying Party of
its obligations hereunder only to the extent that such failure prejudices the
Indemnifying Party hereunder. In case any such action, suit or proceeding shall
be brought against any party seeking indemnification and it shall notify the
Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall be
entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it desires to do so, to
assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such party
seeking indemnification and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such
party seeking indemnification of such election so to assume the defense thereof,
the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the party seeking indemnification
hereunder for any attorneys' fees or any other expenses, in each case
subsequently incurred by such party, in connection with the defense of such
action, suit or proceeding. The party seeking indemnification agrees to
cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the defense
against any such action, suit or proceeding. In any event, the party seeking
indemnification shall have the right to participate at its own expense in the
defense of such action, suit or proceeding. In no event shall an Indemnifying
Party be liable for any settlement or compromise effected without its prior
consent. If, however, the party seeking indemnification refuses its consent to a
BONA FIDE offer of settlement which the Indemnifying Party wishes to accept
(which must include the unconditional release of the parties seeking
indemnification from all liability with respect to the Claim at issue), the
party seeking indemnification may continue to pursue such matter, free of any
participation by the Indemnifying Party, at the sole expense of the party
seeking indemnification. In such event, the obligation of the Indemnifying Party
to the party seeking indemnification shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the
amount of the offer or settlement which the party seeking indemnification
refused to accept plus the costs and expenses of such party prior to the date
the Indemnifying Party notifies the party seeking indemnification of the offer
of settlement and (ii) the actual out-of-pocket amount the party seeking
indemnification is obligated to pay as a result of such party's continuing to
pursue such matter.

                  FORM OF NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION AND
                            CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

          NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION AND CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT (the
"Agreement"), dated as of [____________], 2003, by and among Synta
Pharmaceuticals Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Buyer"), [____________], Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Seller"), and CMAC, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("Stockholder"). Each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall
have the meaning set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement (defined below).

                                   WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Buyer, the Seller and the Stockholder have entered into a
Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of [____________], 2003 (the "Asset Purchase
Agreement"), pursuant to which the Seller shall sell to the Buyer and the Buyer
shall purchase from the Seller certain assets of the Seller as more specifically
set forth therein;

     WHEREAS, the Stockholder, by virtue of, among other things, the
Stockholder's status as the majority stockholder of the Seller, is in possession
of certain confidential and proprietary information relating to the Seller;

     WHEREAS, the Seller is engaged in the business of [____________] (the
"Business");

     WHEREAS, it is a condition to the obligations of the Buyer under the Asset
Purchase Agreement that the Seller and Stockholder enter into this Agreement;
and

     WHEREAS, the Seller and Stockholder have agreed to enter into this
Agreement in consideration of the Buyer's acts as contemplated by the Asset
Purchase Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises
herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Buyer, the Seller and the
Stockholder agree as follows:

     1.  MATERIALITY. The Seller and Stockholder hereby agree that a portion of
  the Purchase Price (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) is being paid
  to protect the goodwill of the Seller, which includes the confidential
  information, trade secrets and know-how of the Seller. Accordingly, the Seller
  and Stockholder hereby agree that the covenants set forth in this Agreement
  form a material and substantial part of the transactions contemplated by the
  Asset Purchase Agreement to protect the confidential information, trade
  secrets and know-how of the Seller and that the Seller and Stockholder have
  entered into this Agreement in order to induce the Buyer to enter into the
  Asset Purchase Agreement.

     2.  STOCKHOLDER AND SELLER NON-COMPETE.

     (a) The Seller and Stockholder acknowledge and agree with respect to the
Seller that the Business of the Seller is conducted around the world (the
"Territory"), and that the Seller's

                                    Exh. C-1
<Page>

reputation and goodwill are an integral part of its business success throughout
the Territory. If the Stockholder or Seller deprives the Buyer of any of the
Seller's goodwill or in any manner utilizes its reputation and goodwill in
competition with the Business, the Buyer will be deprived of the benefits it has
bargained for pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, as an
inducement for the Buyer to enter into the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Seller
and Stockholder agree that during the period beginning on the Closing Date and
ending on the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the "Non-Competition
Period") the Seller and Stockholder shall not (and shall cause their Affiliates
not to), without the Buyer's prior written consent, directly or indirectly, own,
manage, operate, join, control or participate in the ownership, management,
operation or control of, or be connected as a director, officer, employee,
partner, consultant or otherwise with, or permit the Seller's or Stockholder's
name to be used by or in connection with, any Person that, directly or
indirectly, competes with the Buyer in the Business (as conducted by the Buyer)
in the Territory (any such Person being a "Competitive Business").

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subclause (a), the
Stockholder may be a passive owner (which shall not prohibit the exercise of any
rights as a shareholder) of not more than 5% of the outstanding stock of any
class of any Competitive Business.

     3.  NON-SOLICITATION. During the period beginning on the Closing Date and
  ending on the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the "Restricted
  Period"), the Seller and Stockholder shall not (and shall cause their
  Affiliates not to) (i) solicit, raid, entice, induce or contact, or attempt to
  solicit, raid, entice, induce or contact, any Person that is a customer of the
  Buyer[Business] immediately after the Closing (as defined in the Asset
  Purchase Agreement) to become a customer of any other Person for services
  which are the same as, or competitive with, those services sold, rendered or
  otherwise made available to customers by the Seller as of the Closing Date or
  by the Buyer on and after the Closing Date, or approach any such Person for
  such purpose or authorize the taking of such actions by any other Person or
  assist or participate with any such Person in taking such action, or (ii)
  solicit, raid, entice, induce or contact, or attempt to solicit, raid, entice,
  induce or contact any Person that currently is or at any time during the
  Restricted Period shall be (or, in the case of termination is at the time of
  termination), an employee, agent or consultant of or to the Seller or the
  Buyer, as the case may be, to do anything from which the Seller or Stockholder
  is restricted by reason of this SECTION 3, and the Seller and Stockholder
  shall not (and shall cause the their Affiliates not to) approach any such
  employee, agent or consultant for such purpose or authorize or participate in
  the taking of such Person in taking such action. The term "customer" shall
  include: (i) customers of the Seller or Buyer existing immediately prior to
  the Closing; (ii) customers that have used the products and services of the
  Seller within the one (1) year period prior to the Closing Date; and (iii) any
  prospective customers identified as such by the BuyerSeller prior to the
  Closing Date.

     4.  NON-DISPARAGEMENT. During the Restricted Period, the Seller and
  Stockholder shall not make any statement or other communication that impugns
  or attacks the reputation or character of the Business or damages the goodwill
  of the BuyerSeller or theits Business, take any action that would interfere
  with any contractual or customer or supplier relationships conveyed to the
  Buyer as part of the Purchased Assets, including but not limited to any

                                    Exh. C-2

<Page>

  action that would result in a diminution of business, or otherwise take any
  action that is detrimental to the best interests of the Business or the
  Purchased Assets.

     5.  CONFIDENTIALITY. The Seller and Stockholder covenant and agree that
  neither the Seller nor Stockholder shall at any time, directly or indirectly,
  disclose any secret or confidential information that the Seller or Stockholder
  has about the other, including information that the Seller or Stockholder may
  learn or has learned by reason of prior ownership of the Purchased Assets or
  the Stockholder's ownership of Seller securities, or use any such information
  in a manner detrimental to the interests of the Buyer, unless (i) such
  information becomes known to the public generally through no fault of the
  Seller and Stockholder, (ii) disclosure is required by law or the order of any
  governmental authority under color of law; or (iii) the disclosing party
  reasonably believes that such disclosure is required in connection with the
  defense of a lawsuit against the disclosing party, provided that prior to
  disclosing any information pursuant to clause (i)-(iii) above, the Seller
  and/or Stockholder shall give prior written notice thereof to the Buyer and
  provide Buyer with the opportunity to contest such disclosure and shall
  cooperate with the efforts to prevent such disclosure. The Seller and
  Stockholder acknowledge that the right to maintain the secrecy of the trade
  secrets, know-how and confidential information related to the Purchased Assets
  constitutes a proprietary right that the Buyer is entitled to protect and that
  the disclosure, or improper use, of the trade secrets, know-how or the
  confidential information of the Seller through the Closing Date or related to
  the Purchased Assets by the Seller and/or Stockholder will cause irreparable
  harm to the Buyer. The term "confidential information" includes, without
  limitation, information not previously disclosed to the public or to the
  trade, including without limitation information about Seller's products,
  facilities, methods, trade secrets and other intellectual property, software,
  source code, systems, procedures, manuals, confidential reports, product price
  lists, customer lists, financial information (including the revenues, costs or
  profits associated with any of the Seller's products), business plans,
  prospects or opportunities.

     6.  ENFORCEABILITY.

     (a) The Seller and Stockholder agree that a breach of the covenants
contained in this Agreement will cause irreparable damage to the Buyer, the
exact amount of which will be difficult to ascertain, and that the remedies at
law (including, without limitation, a claim for monetary damages) for any such
breach will be inadequate. In the event of the breach or a threatened breach by
the Seller or Stockholder of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Buyer,
in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its
favor, may apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for
specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or
prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other
security). In addition, in the event of an actual breach or violation by the
Seller or Stockholder of this Agreement, the Non-Competition Period and the
Restricted Period with respect to the Seller or Stockholder, as the case may be,
shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

     (b) Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in

                                    Exh. C-3
<Page>

any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not
affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall
be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. More
specifically, if any court determines that the non-competition restrictions set
forth in SECTION 2 of this Agreement are unenforceable by reason of extending
the Non-Competition Period for too great a period of time, over too great a
geographical scope or otherwise, the parties to this Agreement specifically
agree and authorize such court to rewrite this Agreement to reflect the maximum
time, geographical and/or other restrictions permitted under applicable law to
be reasonable and enforceable.

     7.  REASONABLE RESTRAINT. The parties agree that the foregoing covenants
  impose a reasonable restraint on the Seller and Stockholder in light of the
  activities and business of the parties on the date of execution of this
  Agreement and the transactions contemplated in the Asset Purchase Agreement;
  but it is also the intent that such covenants be construed and enforced in
  accordance with the changing activities and business of the Buyer throughout
  the term of this Agreement.

     8.  COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, any one
  of which need not contain the signatures of more than one party, but all such
  counterparts taken together will constitute one and the same instrument.
  Signatures may be exchanged by telecopy and each party to this Agreement
  agrees that it will be bound by its own telecopied signature and that it
  accepts the telecopied signatures of the other parties to this Agreement.

     9.  CAPTIONS. The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience of
  reference only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and will not be
  deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this
  Agreement. All provisions of this Agreement will be enforced and construed as
  if no caption had been used in this Agreement.

     10. BINDING EFFECT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
  shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs,
  legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns. Neither the Seller
  nor Stockholder may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement. The
  rights of the Buyer under this Agreement may be assigned to any of the
  Affiliates of the Buyer and to any third party that purchases the stock or
  assets of the Buyer. Each party hereto represents and warrants that this
  Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by such
  party and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of such party,
  enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms. This Agreement
  may be amended only by a writing signed by the parties hereto.

     11. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed by the
  laws of the CommonwealthState of Massachusetts. The parties hereto agree that
  venue and jurisdiction with respect to any matter arising under this
  Agreement shall be exclusively in the state or federal courts, as applicable,
  located in the CommonwealthState of Massachusetts. Each party submits to the
  jurisdiction of such courts in the CommonwealthState of Massachusetts with
  respect to any claims or controversies arising under this Agreement.

     12. NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION. The parties hereto have participated jointly
  in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity
  or question of intent or

                                    Exh. C-4
<Page>

  interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly
  by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise
  favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the
  provisions of this Agreement.

     13. NOTICE. All notices, requests, demands, claims, and other
  communications hereunder will be in writing. Notices, requests, demands,
  claims and other communications to the parties hereto shall, unless another
  address is set forth in writing, be sent to the address or telecopy number set

request or requirement so that the other party or parties may seek an
appropriate protective order. A party may disclose the CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

obtain, at the request of the other party, a protective order or other assurance

filing, prosecuting, obtaining and maintaining, at its sole cost, expense and
discretion, all PATENT RIGHTS in all countries. LICENSOR will keep LICENSEE
reasonably informed of the status of all actions it takes with respect to the
PATENT RIGHTS that are licensed to LICENSEE hereunder. LICENSOR shall also
provide written notice to LICENSEE prior to taking or failing to take any such
action that would reasonably be expected to affect the scope or validity of the
PATENT RIGHTS licensed to LICENSEE hereunder, such that LICENSEE has a
reasonable opportunity to review and provide comment. If LICENSOR determines in
its sole discretion not to undertake the filing of any patent application or
submission with respect to any of the PATENT RIGHTS licensed to LICENSEE
hereunder, then it shall give LICENSEE prompt written notice of same, at which
time LICENSEE may undertake such filing at its own expense, in LICENSOR's name.

                        ARTICLE 5 - INFRINGEMENT ACTIONS

<Page>

     5.1  NOTICE OF INFRINGEMENT. If, during the TERM, either party learns of
any actual, alleged or threatened infringement by a third party of any PATENT
RIGHTS, such party shall promptly notify the other party and shall provide such
other party with all available evidence of such infringement.

     5.2  RIGHTS OF PARTIES. LICENSOR shall have the first right (but not the
obligation), at its own expense and with legal counsel of its own choice, to
bring suit (or take other appropriate legal action) against any actual, alleged
or threatened infringement of the PATENT RIGHTS. LICENSEE shall have the right,
at its own expense, to be represented in any such action by LICENSOR by counsel
of LICENSEE's own choice; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that under no circumstances shall
the foregoing affect the right of LICENSOR to control the suit as described in
the first sentence of this Section 5.2. If LICENSOR does not file any action or
proceeding against any material infringement of the PATENT RIGHTS within the
FIELD within six (6) months after the later of (i) LICENSOR's notice to LICENSEE
under Section 5.1 above. (ii) LICENSEE's notice to LICENSOR under Section 5.1
above, or (iii) a written request from LICENSEE to take action with respect to
such infringement, then LICENSEE shall have the right (but not the obligation),
at its own expense, to bring suit (or take other appropriate legal action)
against such actual, alleged or threatened infringement, with legal counsel of
its own choice, but shall not be permitted to settle any such suit without the
prior consent of LICENSOR, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any
damages, monetary awards or other amounts recovered, whether by judgment or
settlement, pursuant to any suit, proceeding or other legal action taken under
this Section 5.2, shall applied as follows:

          (a)  first, to reimburse the parties for their respective costs and
     expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) incurred in
     prosecuting such enforcement action;

          (b)  second, to LICENSEE in reimbursement for any lost sales
     associated with LICENSED PRODUCTS directly attributable to such
     infringement; and

          (c)  third, any amounts remaining shall be allocated as follows: (a)
     if LICENSOR is the party bringing such suit or proceeding or taking such
     other legal action, one hundred percent (100%) to LICENSOR, (b) if LICENSEE
     is the party bringing such suit or

                                    Exh. E-5
<Page>

proceeding or taking such other legal action, one hundred percent (100%) to
LICENSEE, and (c) if the suit is brought jointly by the parties, fifty percent
(50%) to each party.

     If a party brings any such action or proceeding hereunder, the other party
agrees to be joined as party plaintiff if necessary to prosecute such action or
proceeding, and to give the party bringing such action or proceeding reasonable
assistance and authority to file and prosecute the suit; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
neither party shall be required to transfer any right, title or interest in or
to any property to the other party or any third party to confer standing on a
party hereunder.

              ARTICLE 6 - INDEMNIFICATION / LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

     6.1  LICENSEE shall at all times during the term of this Agreement and
thereafter indemnify, defend and hold LICENSOR, its trustees, officers,
employees and affiliates harmless against all claims and expenses, including
legal expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of the death of or
injury to any person or persons or out of any damage to property or the
environment, and against any other claim, proceeding, demand, expense and
liability of any kind whatsoever resulting from the clinical investigation,
production, manufacture, sale, use, lease, consumption or advertisement of any
LICENSED PRODUCT by LICENSEE or any AFFILIATE of LICENSEE or any SUBLICENSEE,
unless directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
LICENSOR.

     6.2  EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, LICENSOR
MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS AND EXTENDS NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND VALIDITY OF PATENT RIGHTS CLAIMS, ISSUED OR
PENDING. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AS A REPRESENTATION OR
WARRANTY GIVEN BY LICENSOR THAT THE PRACTICE BY LICENSEE OF THE LICENSE
GRANTED HEREUNDER SHALL NOT INFRINGE THE PATENT RIGHTS OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue until the last
to expire patent or patent claim under the PATENT RIGHTS (the "TERM").

shall default in the performance of any of the obligations herein contained and
such default has not been cured within ninety (90) days after receiving written

     7.3  In the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason, then upon
the request by a disclosing party, the receiving party will promptly return or
certify the destruction of all CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION it received from the
disclosing party along with all copies made by the receiving party. Upon such a
request, the disclosing party's CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION contained on data
storage media shall be certified as being deleted there from.

     7.4  Upon termination of this Agreement, neither party shall be released
from any obligation that matured prior to the effective date of such
termination; provided, LICENSEE and any SUBLICENSEE may, for a period of six (6)
months or such longer time period (if any) on which the parties mutually agree
in writing, sell all LICENSED PRODUCTS which LICENSEE (or any SUBLICENSEE)
produced prior to the effective date of such termination. Without limitation of
the foregoing, the provisions of Articles 3, and 6 shall survive termination of
this Agreement.

     9.5  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring
upon either party any right to use in advertising, publicity or other
promotional activities any name, trade name, trademark, or other designation of
the other party, including any contraction, abbreviation, or simulation of any
of the foregoing. Without the express written approval of the other party,

neither party shall use any designation of the other party in any promotional
activity associated with this Agreement, including without limitation, any
LICENSED PRODUCT. Neither party shall issue any press release or make any public
statement in regard to this Agreement without the prior written approval of the
other party.

     9.6  If one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall not in any way
be affected or impaired thereby. In the event any provision is held illegal or
unenforceable, the parties shall use reasonable efforts to substitute a valid,
legal and enforceable provision which, insofar as is practical, implements
purposes of the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

     9.7  Failure at any time to require performance of any of the provisions
herein shall not waive or diminish a party's right thereafter to demand
compliance therewith or with any other provision. Waiver of any default shall
not waive any other default. A party shall not be deemed to have waived any
rights hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by a duly
authorized officer of the party making such waiver.

     9.8  The parties acknowledge that this Agreement sets forth the entire
understanding and intentions of the parties hereto as to the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all previous understandings between the parties, written
or oral, regarding such subject matter.
