defend, indemnify and hold harmless DELTAGEN and its directors, officers,
employees and agents from and against any and all losses, liabilities,

result of any claims, demands, actions or other proceedings (collectively,
"Claims") made or instituted by any third party and arising out of or
relating to (a) a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of ROCHE
BIOSCIENCE under this Agreement or (b) ROCHE BIOSCIENCE's gross negligence or
willful misconduct, except in each case to the extent such Liabilities

<PAGE>

         12.2     DELTAGEN'S INDEMNIFICATION. DELTAGEN shall defend,
indemnify and hold harmless ROCHE BIOSCIENCE and its directors, officers,
employees and agents from and against any and all Liabilities that they may
suffer as a result of any Claims made or instituted by any third party and
arising out of or relating to (a) a breach of any representation, warranty or
covenant of DELTAGEN under this Agreement or (b) DELTAGEN's gross negligence
or willful misconduct, except in each case to the extent such Liabilities
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of ROCHE BIOSCIENCE.

         12.3     PROCEDURE. A Party (the "Indemnified Party") which intends
to claim indemnification under this Article 12, shall promptly notify the
other Party (the "Indemnifying Party") of any Claim with respect to which the
Indemnified Party intends to claim such indemnification. The Indemnifying
Party shall assume and control the defense of such Claim with counsel
selected by the Indemnifying Party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Indemnified
Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and
expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party if representation of the
Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would
create a conflict for the interests of the Indemnified Party. The indemnity
obligations under this Article 12 shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any Liability if such settlement is effected without the
consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall be given or not in the
Indemnifying Party's sole discretion. The failure to deliver notice to the
Indemnifying Party within a prompt time after the commencement of any such
action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve
the Indemnifying Party of any liability to the Indemnified Party under this
Article 12, but the omission so to deliver notice to the Indemnifying Party
will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to the Indemnified
Party otherwise than under this Article 12. The Indemnifying Party may not
settle the action or otherwise consent to an adverse judgment in such action
that diminishes the rights or interests of the Indemnified Party without the
express written consent of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party, its
employees and agents, shall cooperate fully with the Indemnified Party and
its legal representatives in the investigation of any Claim covered by this
indemnification.

13.      TAXATION.

         In order that ROCHE BIOSCIENCE may comply with applicable tax laws and
regulations, DELTAGEN, at ROCHE BIOSCIENCE's cost and expense, if reasonably
requested by ROCHE BIOSCIENCE, agrees to provide within thirty (30) days after
the close of each calendar year such non-confidential information reasonably
available to DELTAGEN which ROCHE BIOSCIENCE reasonably requests and deems
necessary to properly compute its tax liability. In order to assist DELTAGEN in
providing such information, ROCHE BIOSCIENCE shall provide DELTAGEN with a
summary of payments made to it during such year for research activities
conducted during such year.

14.      TRADEMARKS.

         Neither Party shall use of the trademarks or tradenames of the other
Party without the express written consent of the other Party.

15.      DELAYS OR FORCE MAJEURE.

         15.1     FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Party shall be liable for the
failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement or a Knockout Mice
Project if such failure is occasioned by a contingency beyond such Party's
reasonable control, including but not limited to strikes or other labor
disturbances, lockouts, riots, wars, fires, floods, earthquakes or storms. A
Party claiming a right to excused performance under this Section 15.1 shall
immediately notify the other Party in writing of the extent of its inability
to perform, which notice shall specify the occurrence beyond its reasonable
control that prevents such performance.

         15.2     DELAY. If ROCHE BIOSCIENCE delays the actual start of a
Knockout Mice Project for any reason, the date by which DELTAGEN is obligated
to complete its duties and obligations as described in the applicable Scope
of Work shall be extended by the number of days the start was delayed.
