<PAGE>

without the prior written consent of the Company, use, except in the course of

or information which was disclosed to or developed by you during the course of
performing services for, or receiving training from, the Company, and which is

methods and materials, financial information, sales prospects, client lists,
Inventions, or any other scientific, technical, trade or business secret or
confidential or proprietary information of the Company or of any third party
provided to you during the Term. In the event you are questioned by anyone not
employed by the Company or by an employee of or a consultant to the Company not
authorized to receive such information, in regard to any such information or any
other secret or confidential work of the Company, or concerning any fact or
circumstance relating thereto, you will promptly notify the president of the
Company.

      9. Prohibited Competition.

      (a) Certain Acknowledgments and Agreements.

            (i) You recognize and acknowledge the competitive and proprietary
nature of the Company's business operations. You acknowledge and agree that a
business will be deemed competitive with the Company if it engages in a line of
business in which it performs any of the services, conducts research, or
develops, manufactures or sells any products provided or offered by the Company
or under development by the Company, or any similar products or products
fulfilling the same function, whether or not similar, in the Field of Interest
(such business to be referred to as a "competitive business"). The term "Field
of Interest" currently means the field of diagnosis, prevention or treatment of
diseases or conditions in humans relating to central nervous system and
inflammation disorders. You further understand that the Company may expand the
definition of its Field of Interest at any time by action of its Board of
Directors, which new definition will be binding upon you ten (10) days after
written notice to you of such change.

            (ii) You further acknowledge and agree that during the course of
performing services for the Company, the Company will furnish, disclose or make
available to you confidential and proprietary information related to the
Company's business. You also acknowledge that such confidential information to
be provided by the Company has been developed and will be developed by the
Company through the expenditure by the Company of substantial time, effort and
money and that all such confidential information could be used by you or a
competitive business to compete with the Company.

      (b) Covenants Not to Compete. During the period in which you are employed
by the Company (the "Term") and for a period of two (2) years following the
expiration or termination of the Term, whether such termination is voluntary or
involuntary, you shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company:

                                        3
<PAGE>

            (i) for yourself or on behalf of any other person or entity,
directly or indirectly, either as principal, agent, stockholder, employee,
consultant, representative or in any other capacity, own, manage, operate or
control, or be concerned, connected or employed by, or otherwise associate in
any manner with, engage in or have a financial interest in any competitive
business anywhere in the world (the "Restricted Territory"), except that nothing
contained herein shall preclude you from purchasing or owning securities of any
such business if such securities are publicly traded, and provided that your
holdings do not exceed one (1%) percent of the issued and outstanding securities
of any class of securities of such business; or

            (ii) either individually or on behalf of or through any third party,
solicit, divert or appropriate or attempt to solicit, divert or appropriate, for
the purpose of competing with the Company or any present or future parent,
subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company which is engaged in a similar
business as the Company, any customers or patrons of the Company, or any
prospective customers or patrons with respect to which the Company has developed
or made a sales presentation (or similar offering of services), located within
the Restricted Territory; or

            (iii) either individually or on behalf of or through any third
party, directly or indirectly, solicit, entice or persuade or attempt to
solicit, entice or persuade any other employees of or consultants to the Company
or any present or future parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company to leave
the services of the Company or any such parent, subsidiary or affiliate for any
reason.

      (c) Reasonableness of Restrictions. You further recognize and acknowledge
that (i) the types of employment which are prohibited by this Section 8 are
reasonable in relation to the skills which represent your principal salable
asset both to the Company and to your other prospective employers, and (ii) the
geographical scope of the provisions of this Section 8 is reasonable, legitimate
and fair to you in light of the Company's need to market its services and sell
its products worldwide in order to have a sufficient customer base to make the
Company's business profitable and in light of the limited restrictions on the
type of employment prohibited herein compared to the types of employment for
which you are qualified to earn your livelihood.

      (d) Survival of Acknowledgments and Agreements. Your acknowledgments and
agreements set forth in this Section 8 shall survive the expiration or
termination of this Agreement and the termination of your employment with the
Company for any reason.

      10. Ownership of Ideas, Copyrights and Patents.

      (a) Property of the Company. You agree that all Inventions which you may
conceive, reduce to practice or develop during the Term (or, if based on or
related to any confidential or proprietary information of the Company, within
one (1) year after the termination of such employment), alone or in conjunction
with another, or others, whether during or out of regular business hours, and
whether at the request or upon the suggestion of the Company, or otherwise,
shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company

                                        4

in which you have any right, title, or interest as of the date of your execution
of this Agreement ("Other Inventions"), and (ii) a list of all Other Inventions
made, conceived, or developed, in whole or in part, by you prior to the date of
your execution of this Agreement, and you represent that Schedule A is a
complete and accurate list of all Other Inventions.

      (b) Cooperation. You agree that you will fully cooperate with the Company,
its attorneys and agents in the preparation and filing of all papers and other
documents as may be required to perfect the Company's rights in and to any of
such Company Inventions, including, but not limited to, performing all acts
deemed necessary or desirable by the Company (both during and after your
employment with the Company) and joining in any proceeding to obtain letters
patent, copyrights, trademarks or other legal rights of the United States and of
any and all other countries on such Company Inventions; provided, that, the
Company will bear the expense of all such proceedings. You hereby agree that any
patent or other legal right covering any Company Invention issued to you
personally, shall be assigned by you to the Company without charge by you.

      (c) Works Made For Hire. Without limiting the foregoing, you further
acknowledge that all original works of authorship made by you, whether alone or
jointly with others within the scope of your employment with the Company and
which are protectable by copyright are "works made for hire" within the meaning
of the United States Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. Section 101, as amended, the

101, as amended, such work shall be owned solely by, or hereby assigned or
transferred completely and exclusively to, the Company.

      11. Disclosure to Future Employers. You agree that you will provide, and
that the Company may similarly provide in its discretion, a copy of the
covenants contained in Sections 8, 9 and 10 of this Agreement to any business or
enterprise which you may directly, or indirectly, own, manage, operate, finance,

      (i) Severability. The parties intend this Agreement to be enforced as
written. However, (i) if any portion or provision of this Agreement shall to any
extent be declared illegal or unenforceable by a duly authorized court having
jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such
portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so
declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each
portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the
fullest extent permitted by law; and (ii) if any provision, or part thereof, is
held to be unenforceable because of the duration of such provision or the
geographic area covered thereby, the Company and you agree that the court making
such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration and/or geographic
area of such provision, and/or to delete specific words and phrases
("blue-pencilling"), and in its reduced or blue-pencilled form such provision
shall then be enforceable and shall be enforced.

      (j) Headings and Captions. The headings and captions of the various
subdivisions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall
in no way modify, or affect the meaning or construction of any of the terms or
provisions hereof.

      (k) Injunctive Relief. You hereby expressly acknowledge that any breach or
threatened breach of any of the terms and/or conditions set forth in this
Agreement will result in substantial, continuing and irreparable injury to the
Company. Therefore, you hereby agree that, in addition to any other remedy that
may be available to the Company, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive or
other equitable relief by a court of appropriate jurisdiction in the event of
any breach or threatened breach of the terms or conditions of this Agreement.
The seeking of such injunction or order shall not affect the Company's right to
seek and obtain damages or other equitable relief on account of any such actual
or threatened breach. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to limit the
remedies for any actual or threatened breach that would otherwise be available
to the Company.

      (1) No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies. No failure or delay by a
party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement, and
no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of
any such right, power or remedy of the party. No single or partial exercise of
any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by a party hereto, nor any
abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or
remedy, shall preclude such party from any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The election of any
remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such
party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party not
expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such
notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such
notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without
such notice or demand.

      (m) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.
