     THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR SPUR FACILITY (this "License Agreement") is made
as of the 12th day of June, 2001, by and between MOYER PACKING COMPANY, a
Pennsylvania corporation ("MOPAC") and BIOPURE CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation ("Biopure").

                                   BACKGROUND:

     A.  MOPAC and Biopure are parties to that certain Agreement dated October
21, 1994, as amended by that certain Amendment to Agreement dated November 1,
1999, and that certain Second Amendment to Agreement of even date herewith
(collectively, the "Supply Agreement").

     B.  Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, MOPAC supplies Material to Biopure
and Biopure purchases Material from MOPAC for use in Biopure's Product.

     C.  Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, MOPAC constructed a Spur Facility
which is a segregated portion of the MOPAC Plant, and from which all Material
purchased and sold under the Supply Agreement is sourced.

     D.  Pursuant to the Supply Agreement, Biopure granted to MOPAC a stock
option (the "Option") to purchase 80,000 shares of Common Stock of Biopure. The
consideration to be paid by MOPAC for the Option shares is good and marketable
title to the Assets, which Assets consist of: (i) the continued license to use
the Spur Facility as an outside independent contractor, (ii) the Land, and (iii)
the Waste Disposal Rights.

     E.  MOPAC has exercised the Option, and, by this License Agreement,
contemplated by Subsection IV.4(e)(2) of the Supply Agreement, MOPAC agrees to
grant to Biopure the continued license to use the Spur Facility, upon the terms
and conditions set forth herein.

     NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the sum of One Dollar ($1.00),
and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties
hereby agree as follows:

     1. Capitalized terms used herein, and not otherwise defined herein, shall
have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Supply Agreement. The recitals
set forth at the beginning of this License Agreement shall be deemed to be an
integral part of this License Agreement, and are hereby incorporated into this
License Agreement.

     2. GRANT OF LICENSE. MOPAC hereby grants to Biopure an exclusive license
(the "License"), pursuant to which Biopure, and Biopure's employees, invitees,
agents, licensees, successors and assigns (collectively, "Licensee Parties"),
may enter upon and use the Spur

Facility, as an independent contractor, solely and exclusively for the uses
permitted in the Supply Agreement.

     3. TERM OF LICENSE; DEFAULT.

          (a) TERM. The term ("Term") of the License shall commence on the date
of this Agreement and shall continue for the term set forth in Section III.4 of
the Supply Agreement.

          (b) DEFAULT. A party shall be in default under this License Agreement
if said party fails to observe or perform its respective duties and obligations
under Sections 5-8 of this License Agreement and such failure continues for a
period of fifteen (15) days after written notice from the non-breaching party,
or if such observance or performance is not capable of being accomplished within
such time, then within such additional reasonable time as may be necessary,
provided that the cure is commenced during such fifteen (15) day period and
diligently prosecuted to completion as soon as possible, and in no event later
than ninety (90) days after the initial notice of default. In the event of a
default, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to exercise all of its rights
and remedies provided under this License Agreement, at law, in equity, and/or
otherwise, each such remedy being considered cumulative. No single exercise of a
remedy shall be deemed an election to forego any other remedy and any failure to
pursue a remedy shall not prevent, restrict or otherwise modify its exercise
subsequently.

          (c) TERMINATION. In the event that a party is in default under this
License Agreement (and such default is not cured within the time frame set forth
above) more than two (2) times in any period of twenty four (24) consecutive
months, the non-breaching party may terminate this License Agreement by notice
of such termination given in accordance with Section 10 below.

     4. EXERCISE OF LICENSE. Biopure shall and shall cause its employees,
invitees, agents and licensees, at all times, to exercise the License in
compliance with the Supply Agreement and all applicable laws, rules and
regulations of all governmental and administrative bodies and agencies, and in
such manner as to avoid interference with or disruption of MOPAC's business
operations. MOPAC may at any time and from time to time issue reasonable rules,
instructions and/or regulations with regard to the use of the MOPAC Plant, which
shall apply to the use of the Spur Facility insofar as such reasonable rules,
instructions and/or regulations relating to compliance with law or reducing the
risk of personal injury and/or damage to property at the Spur Facility and/or
the MOPAC Plant. Biopure shall and shall cause its employees, invitees, agents
and licensees to comply fully and promptly with any such reasonable rules,
instructions and/or regulations issued by MOPAC. Biopure shall maintain adequate
supervision and control over its employees, invitees, agents and licensees
entering upon the Spur Facility and/or MOPAC Plant.
