                                    ARTICLE 3
                PROGRAM OLIGONUCLEOTIDE SPECIFICATIONS COMMITTEE

3.1      COMMITTEE OBJECTIVE. In order to ensure the manufacture and supply to
         ISIS of optimized Program Oligonucleotides for the duration of this
         Agreement, IDT and ISIS will form a joint committee of their respective
         employees to develop, enforce and continuously refine specifications
         for the manufacture, supply, and receipt of MOE Oligonucleotides and/or
         Quantification Oligonucleotides (the "Program Oligonucleotide
         Specifications Committee").

3.2      COMMITTEE FORMATION AND MANAGEMENT. It is contemplated by the Parties
         that all decisions affecting or regarding Program Oligonucleotide
         specifications (Appendix A) will be the result of informed deliberation
         and mutual consent of the Program Oligonucleotide Specifications
         Committee (POSC). Each Party shall appoint a Committee Co-Chair, who
         will have the joint authority, independent of the POSC, to make any
         decision regarding modifications to the Program Oligonucleotide
         specifications. The Co-Chairs will appoint additional individuals to
         serve on the POSC. The POSC will meet at least once monthly to review
         the performance of each Party under the Agreement, to forecast future
         supply requirements, and to resolve any Program Oligonucleotide supply,
         quality and/or invoicing issues. The POSC will instruct staff members
         to direct all related issues or concerns through the POSC and will
         distribute minutes of its meetings to the relevant members of their
         organizations. IDT hereby appoints Trey Martin and ISIS hereby appoints
         Henry Sasmor as the acting Committee Co-Chairs for each respective
         Party.

3.3      INITIAL OLIGO SPECIFICATION DEVELOPMENT. The specifications listed on
         Appendix A will serve as the Program Oligonucleotide Specifications
         until amended by POSC. Within ten (10) days of the Effective Date, the
         POSC will meet to initiate the controlled development of refined
         manufacturing specifications (including yield, purity, quality control
         tests and criteria, shipping standards, remake policies, etc.) for both
         MOE Oligonucleotides and Quantification Oligonucleotides.


                                       5

3.4      SCOPE OF POSC AUTHORITY. The POSC (or the Co-Chairs acting jointly)
         has the authority to change the following with respect to Program
         Oligonucleotide specifications: synthesis scale; yield guarantees;
         chemical compositions; purity requirements; analytical or quality
         control tests and/or specifications; and all pricing changes directly
         related to such changes, provided that the resulting prices reflect,
         whenever possible, the fixed percentage discount rate of paragraph 4.3.
         All price changes require the signed written agreement of both
         Co-Chairs prior to their use in an invoice issued to ISIS pursuant to
         paragraph 4.8 hereunder. The POSC shall not have the authority to apply
         Customer Deposit to oligonucleotides or other products other than to
         Program Oligonucleotides.


                                    ARTICLE 4
                         ORDERING, PRICING AND INVOICING

4.1      PROGRAM OLIGONUCLEOTIDE ORDERING. ISIS shall place all orders for
         Program Oligonucleotides over the Dedicated Data Management System,
         using the customer order entry software developed by IDT for ISIS
         pursuant to paragraph 2.5.

4.2      MOE OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PRICING. Subject to the provisions contained in
         paragraphs 2.4, 4.4, and 4.5 hereunder, the invoice price for MOE
         Oligonucleotides prior to the application of Customer Deposit will be:

                  (i)      [***] for each MOE Oligonucleotide manufactured on
                           the [***] scale that meets the MOE specifications;

                  (ii)     [***] for each MOE Oligonucleotide manufactured on
                           the [***] scale that meets the MOE specifications.

4.3      QUANTIFICATION OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PRICING/FIXED PERCENTAGE DISCOUNT.
         Subject to the provisions contained in paragraphs in 2.4, 4.4 and 4.5
         hereunder, the invoice price for Quantification Oligonucleotides
         (and/or Antisense Oligonucleotide) prior to application of Customer
         Deposit shall be [***] of the IDT List Price for corresponding
         oligonucleotide Primers and/or Probes and the associated purification,
         analytical and/or set-up fees. This fixed percentage discount is also
         to be used by the POSC to guide its pricing decisions relevant to
         changes to MOE Oligonucleotide specifications, including specifically
         changes to purification, analytical, loading, shipping or handling
         specifications. Appendix B illustrates the application of this fixed
         percentage discount to Primer-Probe Sets and MOE Oligonucleotides using
         IDT List Prices.

4.4      EXTERNAL FACTORS & PRICE INCREASES. IDT warrants that it has performed
         adequate manufacturing cost-forecasting to ensure that IDT can supply
         Program Oligonucleotides in commercially viable fashion at the above
         quoted per base prices or at the established [***] discount. However,
         should unforeseeable events beyond the control of IDT cause the
         manufacturing costs of IDT to increase by [***] then IDT shall have the
         right to


                                       6
<Page>

         increase the per [***] price to reflect the increased manufacturing
         cost. The term "unforeseeable events" as used in this paragraph
         includes, but is not limited to:

           (i)    new and substantial regulatory or legal restrictions imposed
                  on the manufacture of oligonucleotides or related
                  manufacturing processes;

           (ii)   substantial increase(s) in the cost of necessary
                  oligonucleotide manufacturing amidites, reagents, solvents, or
                  quality control components, necessary to manufacture Program
                  Oligonucleotides;

         Should IDT rely upon "unforeseeable events" beyond the control of IDT
         as a basis for a price increase, IDT shall immediately as is practical
         disclose in writing to ISIS through the POSC the cause of the price
         increase, and IDT's relevant manufacturing costs in sufficient detail
         to allow for confirmation of the costs by ISIS.

4.5      PRICE DECREASES/MOST FAVORED PRICING. If there are substantial
         decreases in the market cost of commercial amidites, reagents,
         solvents, or quality control components necessary to manufacture
         Program Oligonucleotides that result in [***] or greater reduction in
         the average cost [***] to IDT, then IDT shall reduce the [***] price
         charges to ISIS by the amount greater than the [***] cost per base
         threshold.

4.6      TURNAROUND. The specifications and requirements for delivery of
         manufacture of Program Oligonucleotides will be those specifications
         and turnaround requirements identified in Appendix A, as amended from
         time-to-time by the POSC.

4.7      SUPPLY FORECASTS/ISIS SUPPLIED REAGENT INVENTORY. On or before the
         [***] of each month during the Assigned Supply Period, ISIS will supply
         IDT with a forecast of its intended Program Oligonucleotide orders for
         the following month. IDT will advise ISIS within [***] Days of receipt
         of its ability to meet the forecast. IDT will specifically advise ISIS
         of its then current inventory of ISIS Supplied Reagents and of its need
         for additional ISIS Supplied Reagents to meet the forecast for the
         following month. It is the expectation of both Parties that IDT will:

                  (i)      maintain on-site, a constant minimum [***] inventory
                           of quality-controlled ISIS Supplied Reagents;

                  (ii)     maintain available manufacturing capacity to meet any
                           forecast that requires a monthly MOE Oligonucleotide
                           supply of [***] MOE Oligonucleotides or less, and a
                           monthly Quantification Oligonucleotide supply of
                           [***] Primer-Probe Sets or less;

                  (iii)    make reasonable efforts to meet forecasts that exceed
                           those limits in (ii) above. In the event that an ISIS
                           forecast is for volumes of Program Oligonucleotides,
                           which volumes are [***] greater than the prior month,
                           then IDT's ability to meet such a forecast may
                           require a scale-up period.


                                       7
<Page>

4.8      INVOICING. During the Assigned Supply Period, IDT will invoice ISIS
         following the close of each month in accordance with 2.5 herein, for
         Program Oligonucleotides delivered that meet the specifications
         established by the POSC. Payment of the invoice by ISIS will be due
         within [***] Days from receipt of the invoice by ISIS, and payment will
         be made by electronic wire transfer into an account as designated by
         IDT. Should ISIS fail to pay the full invoice within [***] Days, IDT
         will have the right to suspend Program Oligonucleotide manufacturing
         until the invoice is paid in full.

4.9      MOST-FAVORED QUANTIFICATION OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PRICING. In addition to
         IDT's commitment to maintain a fixed [***] discount for Quantification
         Oligonucleotides and Antisense Oligonucleotides, IDT agrees not to
         extend more favorable pricing to third-parties with comparable orders
         for Antisense Oligonucleotides and/or Probes, whether ordered
         individually or as part of a Primer-Probe Set. For purposes of this
         provision, "comparable orders" shall mean orders for oligonucleotides
         in equal or lesser volumes, on the same or substantially similar scale,
         with the same or substantially similar modifications, purification or
         purity requirements, analytical specifications, and loading
         requirements. This provision shall not apply to more favorable prices
         extended to third-parties by IDT for Primers ordered without
         corresponding orders for Probes, nor shall it apply to Probes, Primers,
         or Antisense Oligonucleotides when sold or transferred in any of the
         following non-limiting circumstances: as part of a bona-fide research
         collaboration; as a component of a kit; as part of a defined promotion;
         as a test-order; or as a remake.

4.10     CUSTOMER DEPOSIT DEPLETION. Unless IDT and ISIS agree in writing to
         extend the Agreement and the Assigned Supply Period, any unused
         portions of the Customer Deposit at the end of the Assigned Supply
         Period will be forfeited by ISIS and will become the exclusive property
         of IDT.

         of the invention or the development as soon as commercially practical
         following internal reporting. The Parties thereafter agree to initiate
         good faith negotiations directed toward the completion of a separate
         written agreement directed to licensing and/or assignment of such
         Intellectual Property.

         EFFECT OF THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE, USAGE IN THE INDUSTRY OR THROUGH
         COURSE OF DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THOSE
         CONCERNING MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

6.4      NO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. NEITHER PARTY HERETO WILL BE LIABLE FOR
         SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT THE
         MANUFACTURE, SALE OR USE OF PROGRAM OLIGONUCLEOTIDES UNDER THIS
         AGREEMENT, OR ARISING OUT OF THE EXERCISE OF EITHER PARTY'S RIGHTS

                                    ARTICLE 7
                             CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

7.1      CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. For the purpose of this Agreement,
         Confidential Information means all information, data, and material,
         labeled or otherwise designated or identified as confidential by ISIS
         or by IDT.


                                       11
<Page>

7.2      DESIGNATED CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OF ISIS. All information relating
         to Program Oligonucleotides including specifically target sequences
         (i.e., the sequence ordered and/or its complementary sequence or
         components thereof) ordered by ISIS during the course of this Agreement
         are hereby permanently designated as ISIS Confidential Information.
         ISIS agrees that it will, in writing, clearly identify as confidential,
         any and all additional information that it provides to IDT that it
         considers to be the Confidential Information of ISIS.

7.3      DESIGNATED CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OF IDT. Any and all data generated
         by IDT's validation or use of the Assigned Systems and/or the Dedicated
         Data Management System, except for the information described in 7.2
         herein, are hereby designated as IDT's Confidential Information. IDT
         agrees that it will, in writing, clearly identify as confidential, any
         and all such information that it provides to ISIS that it considers to
         be the Confidential Information of IDT.

7.4      USE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Each Party may use the other Party's
         Confidential Information only for the purpose of performing each
         Party's duties and obligations under this Agreement.

7.5      OBLIGATIONS OF CONFIDENTIALITY. Except as expressly provided herein,
         ISIS and IDT, and their officers, employees, agents, consultants, and
         authorized representatives (a) shall hold in strict confidence all
         Confidential Information from the other Party or any of its officers,
         employees, agents or representatives and (b) shall not distribute,
         disclose or disseminate such Confidential Information to any third
         party without the prior written approval of the other Party (that is,
         the original disclosing Party), provided, however, that such approval
         will not be unreasonably withheld where the receiving Party reasonably
         believes that disclosure of the other Party's Confidential Information
         is reasonably necessary to obtain patents, authorization to conduct
         clinical trials, or regulatory approval.

7.6      OTHER INFORMATION. For purposes of this section, information will not
         be considered to be Confidential Information of a Party if the
         information:

           (i)    was lawfully in the receiving Party's possession prior to
                  disclosure under this Agreement and was not acquired directly
                  or indirectly from the disclosing Party; or,

           (ii)   was, at the date of disclosure by the disclosing Party, public
                  knowledge; or subsequently becomes public knowledge other than
                  through the failure of the receiving Party to comply with its
                  obligations of confidentiality under the terms of this
                  Agreement; or,

           (iii)  was or is acquired by the receiving Party from any third party
                  lawfully having possession of such information and who is not
                  under an obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing
                  Party; or,


                                       12
<Page>

           (iv)   was or becomes independently known by the receiving Party
                  without utilizing information provided by the disclosing Party
                  and wherein such independent knowledge is supported in
                  contemporaneously written and dated documentation of the
                  receiving Party; or,

           (v)    is required to be disclosed, retained, or maintained by either
                  Party, by applicable law or regulation or under the rules of
                  any regulatory or governmental authority, including
                  specifically federal district courts; provided however that
                  each Party shall immediately notify the other Party in writing
                  of such required disclosure and must provide such notice at
                  least thirty (30) days prior to the date when disclosure is
                  proposed to take place, and provided that the Party or third
                  party required to make disclosure shall use its best efforts
                  to secure confidential treatment of any such information
                  required to be disclosed.

7.7      ADDITIONAL REMEDIES. The Parties hereto understand and agree that
         remedies at law may be inadequate to protect against any breach of any
         of the provisions of this Article 7 by either Party or their employees,
         agents, officers or directors or any other person acting in concert
         with it or on its behalf. Accordingly, each Party shall be entitled to
         the granting of injunctive relief by a court of competent jurisdiction
         against any action that constitutes any such breach of this Article 7.

7.8      EXTENDED TERM. The provisions of this Article 7 shall survive any
         termination or expiration of this Agreement and continue in force for a
         period of [***] years.


                                    ARTICLE 8
                              TERM AND TERMINATION

8.1      TERM. The term of this Agreement will be from the Effective Date and
         will continue for a period of eight (8) years from the Effective Date,
         unless earlier terminated by a Party or the Parties under one of the
         provisions of this Article 8.

8.2      BANKRUPTCY. This Agreement shall terminate upon written notice subject
         to paragraph 10. 4, by one Party to the other Party in the event the
         other Party shall become insolvent, asks its creditors for a
         moratorium, files a bankruptcy petition, or suffers appointment of a
         temporary or permanent receiver, trustee, or custodian, for all or a
         substantial portion of its assets. In the event of any termination
         pursuant to this provision, any unused Customer Deposit shall be
         immediately forfeited by ISIS, and shall become the exclusive property
         of IDT.

8.3      TERMINATION. Either Party may terminate this Agreement for default by
         the other Party in performing any of its material obligations under
         this Agreement by notifying the other Party in writing of such default
         and allowing the other Party [***] Days within which to cure such
         default, unless the default is the failure to pay money, in which case
         the defaulting Party shall have only [***] Days to cure such default
         after receiving written


                                       13
<Page>

         notice of non-payment. If such default is not cured within [***] Days
         from receipt of such notice of default (or [***] Days in the case of
         non-payment of money owed), the non-defaulting Party may terminate
         this Agreement by written notice, subject to paragraph 10.4, to the
         defaulting Party.

8.4      ELECTIVE TERMINATION. ISIS may terminate this Agreement by providing
         IDT [***] days written notice if IDT materially fails to comply with
         any of the Program Oligonucleotide manufacturing or supply requirements
         set forth in Article 4 and in Appendix A, as amended from time to time.
         The Parties recognize and acknowledge that the production of Program
         Oligonucleotides conforming to the specifications is important to ISIS
         and is a material term of this Agreement, and further that time is of
         the essence with respect to ISIS's demand for Program Oligonucleotides.
         IDT's failure to materially produce and deliver Program
         Oligonucleotides to ISIS as set forth in Article 4 and in conformity
         with the specifications, is considered a material breach of this
         Agreement and must be cured to the satisfaction of ISIS within [***]
         Days of notice of the same to IDT by ISIS. Failure by IDT to cure such
         a breach within thirty [***] Days is grounds for ISIS's elective
         termination of this Agreement. In the event IDT refuses to supply
         Program Oligonucleotides to ISIS in accordance with Article 2 herein,
         and/or IDT refuses to cure a material breach of this Agreement, such
         acts shall constitute an elective termination by IDT, and in such
         events ISIS shall be entitled to a refund of its unused and outstanding
         Customer Deposit.

8.5      EFFECT OF EXPIRATION OR TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT. Within [***] days
         after expiration or termination (the date of termination will be the
         date upon which the [***] day notice period lapses) of this Agreement,
         each Party shall return to the other Party any and all Confidential
         Information (Article 7) provided by the other Party pursuant to this
         Agreement. ISIS shall have the right to obtain and use all Program
         Oligonucleotides for which ISIS has paid and that are in IDT's
         possession, or that are scheduled to be manufactured, at the time of
         termination. Except to the extent expressly provided to the contrary,
         the rights and obligations of the Parties pursuant to Articles 5,6,7 9,
         and 10, shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
         Any and all rights of IDT to payments accrued through expiration or
         termination as well as obligations of the Parties under firm orders for
         purchase and delivery of Program Oligonucleotides at the time of such
         expiration or termination shall remain in effect. IDT will have no
         obligation to sell and deliver Program Oligonucleotides to ISIS that
         have delivery dates more than thirty (30) Business Days after the date
         of termination, and in the case of termination under paragraphs 8.2 or
         8.3, the terminating Party has discretion in electing whether firm
         orders will remain in effect. Upon expiration of this Agreement, or
         termination of this Agreement for reasons other than an IDT elective
         termination as defined in 8.4 herein, any unused Customer Deposit shall
         be forfeited by ISIS and will default to IDT. Upon termination of this
         Agreement under paragraphs 8.2, 8.3, or 8.4, or upon expiration of this
         Agreement under 8.1, IDT shall immediately transfer to ISIS possession
         of ISIS Supplied Reagents upon notice from ISIS of the final
         post-termination receipt of Program Oligonucleotides, if any.

                                    ARTICLE 9
                                 INDEMNIFICATION

9.1      INDEMNIFICATION. Each Party (the "Indemnifying Party") agrees to defend
         the other Party and such other Party's Affiliates and their respective
         directors, officers, employees and agents (the "Indemnified Parties")
         at the Indemnifying Party's cost and expense, and shall hold the
         Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any losses, costs,
         damages, fees or expenses arising out of any third party claim relating
         to (i) any breach by the Indemnifying Party of any of its
         representations, warranties or obligations pursuant to this Agreement,
         or (ii) product liability or liability stemming from allegations of
         contributory infringement resulting from use of a product made, sold or
         imported by or for the Indemnifying Party.

9.2      NOTICE/REPRESENTATION. In the event of any claim against the
         Indemnified Parties by any third party for which indemnification may be
         sought pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall promptly
         notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the claim; provided that
         the failure to promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim
         shall not result in the loss of rights of indemnification hereunder
         except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party was materially
         prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall assume, at its
         sole expense, the defense of the claim and its settlement. The
         Indemnified Parties shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and
         may, at their option and expense, be represented in any such action or
         proceeding. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any
         litigation costs or expenses incurred by the Indemnified Parties. In
         addition, the Indemnifying Party shall not be responsible for the
         indemnification of any Indemnified Party arising from any negligent or
         wrongful acts by such Indemnified Party, or as the result of any
         settlement or compromise by the Indemnified Parties without the
         Indemnifying Party's prior written consent. The Indemnifying Party may
         not settle or compromise any matter without the consent of the
         Indemnified Parties unless such settlement or compromise imposes no
         obligations on the Indemnified Parties and does not restrict the rights
         of the Indemnified Parties.


                                   ARTICLE 10
                                     GENERAL

10.1     GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be construed and the respective
         rights of the Parties determined according to the laws of the State of
         New York (without regard to the conflict of law rules of any
         jurisdiction), except as regarding matters of intellectual property
         law, which shall be determined in accordance with the national
         intellectual property laws relevant of the intellectual property in
         question.

10.2     ASSIGNMENT. Neither IDT nor Isis may assign this Agreement in whole or
         in part without the consent of the other Party, except if such

                           with the disclosing Party to treat such information
                           and materials as confidential and to not use the

                           disclosure. At the request of the other Party, the
