all technology, data, samples, technical and economic information (including the
economic terms hereof), commercialization, clinical and research strategies,
know-how and trade secrets provided by the other Party (the "Disclosing Party")
from the date of that certain confidentiality agreement between the parties

which is lawfully in possession of such Confidential Information and not in
violation of any contractual or legal obligation to the Disclosing Party with
respect to such Confidential Information;

                      (iii) information that was already known to the
non-Disclosing Party or one or more of its Affiliates prior to disclosure by the
Disclosing Party, as evidenced by the non-Disclosing Party's written records;

                      (iv) information that is required to be disclosed to any
governmental authorities or pursuant to any regulatory filings, but only to the
limited extent of such legally required disclosure; and

made to hold in confidence and not make use of such information for any

                                       6.
<PAGE>   11
purpose other than those permitted by this Agreement. Each Party will use at
least the same standard of care as it uses to protect proprietary or
confidential information of its own to ensure that such employees, agents,
consultants do not disclose or make any unauthorized use of the Confidential
Information. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Party
may disclose the terms of this Agreement to lenders, investment bankers and
other financial institutions of its choice solely for purposes of financing the
business operations of such Party either (i) upon the written consent of the
other Party or (ii) if the disclosing Party obtains a signed confidentiality
agreement with such financial institution with respect to such information, upon
terms substantially similar to those contained in this Section 6. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, nothing herein shall
limit Gene Logic's ability to grant non-exclusive access to the Base Information

         6.5 PUBLICATION. The Parties shall cooperate in appropriate publication
of the results of activities contemplated by this Agreement, but subject to the
predominating interest to obtain patent protection for any patentable subject
matter and to Gene Logic's business interest in preserving the value of the
GeneExpress(TM) Data Warehouse. To this end, prior to any public disclosure of
such results, the Party proposing disclosure shall send the other Party a copy
of the information to be disclosed, and shall allow the other Party 30 days from
the date of receipt in which to determine whether the information to be
disclosed contains subject matter for which patent protection should be sought
prior to disclosure, otherwise contains Confidential Information of the
reviewing Party, or, with respect to any proposed disclosure by NeuralStem,
contains information that Gene Logic reasonably believes would impair the value
of the GeneExpress(TM) Data Warehouse. The Party proposing disclosure shall be
free to proceed with the disclosure unless prior to the expiration of such
30-day period the non-disclosing Party notifies the other Party that the
disclosure contains subject matter for which patent protection should be sought
or Confidential Information of the non-disclosing Party or, if NeuralStem is the
disclosing Party, Gene Logic notifies NeuralStem that Gene Logic reasonably
believes that the disclosure would impair the value of the GeneExpress(TM) Data
Warehouse, and the Party proposing publication shall then delay public
disclosure of the information for an additional period of up to three months to
permit the preparation and filing of a patent application on the subject matter
to be disclosed or for the parties to determine a mutually acceptable
modification to such publication to protect the Confidential Information of the
non-disclosing Party adequately or to address Gene Logic's concern regarding
impairment of the value of the GeneExpress(TM) Data Warehouse. The Party
proposing disclosure shall thereafter be free to publish or disclose the
information. The determination of authorship for any paper shall be in
accordance with accepted scientific practice.

8.       INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE

         8.1 INDEMNIFICATION BY NEURALSTEM. NeuralStem shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless Gene Logic and its Affiliates, and each of its and their
respective employees, officers, directors and agents (each, a "Gene Logic
Indemnified Party") from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, cost,
and expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) (collectively, a "Liability")
which the Gene Logic Indemnified Party may incur, suffer or be required to pay
resulting from or arising in connection with any Third Party action or claim
based upon (i) the breach by NeuralStem of any covenant, representation or
warranty contained in this Agreement, or (ii) negligence or willful misconduct
by NeuralStem, its Affiliates, employees or agents. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, NeuralStem shall have no obligation under this Agreement to
indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Gene Logic Indemnified Party with respect
to claims, demands, costs or judgments which result from willful misconduct or
negligent acts or omissions of Gene Logic, its Affiliates, or any of their
respective employees, officers, directors or agents.

         8.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY GENE LOGIC. Gene Logic shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless NeuralStem and its Affiliates, and each of its and their
respective employees, officers, directors and agents (each, a "NeuralStem
Indemnified Party") from and against any Liability which the NeuralStem
Indemnified Party may incur, suffer or be required to pay resulting from or
arising in connection with any Third Party action or claim based upon (i) the
breach by Gene Logic of any covenant, representation or warranty contained in
this Agreement, or (ii) the negligence or willful misconduct by Gene Logic, its
Affiliates, employees or agents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gene Logic shall
have no obligation under this Agreement to indemnify, defend, or hold harmless
any NeuralStem Indemnified Party with respect to claims, demands, costs or
judgments which result from willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of
NeuralStem, its Affiliates, or any of their respective employees, officers,
directors or agents.

         8.3 CONDITIONS TO INDEMNIFICATION. The obligations of the indemnifying
Party under Sections 8.1 and 8.2 are conditioned upon the delivery of written
notice to the indemnifying Party of any potential Liability promptly after the
indemnified Party becomes aware of such potential Liability. The indemnifying
Party shall have the right to assume the defense of any suit or claim related to
the Liability if it has assumed responsibility for the suit or claim in writing;
however, if in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified Party, such suit or
claim involves an issue or matter which could have a materially adverse effect
on the business operations or assets of the indemnified Party, the indemnified
Party may waive its rights to indemnity under this Agreement and control the
defense or settlement thereof, but in no event shall any such waiver be
construed as a waiver of any indemnification rights such Party may have at law
or in equity. If the indemnifying Party defends the suit or claim, the
indemnified Party may participate in (but not control) the defense thereof at
its sole cost and expense.

         8.4 SETTLEMENTS. Neither Party may settle a claim or action related to
a Liability without the consent of the other Party, if such settlement would
impose any monetary obligation on the other Party or require the other Party to
submit to an injunction or otherwise limit the other its Affiliates, employees,
agents, officers and directors (each an "Indemnified Party") permitted from and
against any judgments or settlements.

Agreement to any of the competitors listed in Schedule 9.1.

         9.2 NON-WAIVER. The waiver by either of the parties of any breach of

efforts to reform the portions of this Agreement declared invalid to realize the
