5.2      Following the date of execution of this Agreement, the Relevant
         Interest Holder agrees not to enter into any licensing or sub-licensing
         agreement, or other arrangement or agreement, with respect to any of
         the Relevant IPR or to amend or modify the terms of any existing
         licence or sub-licence agreement with respect to the Relevant IPR, or
         to hold itself out to the public as the owner of the Relevant IPR.

5.3      The Relevant Interest Holder agrees that the restrictions set forth in
         this Clause 5 are reasonable in the circumstances of this Agreement and
         necessary to protect the Assignee's right, goodwill, title and interest
         in and to the Relevant IPR in accordance with the terms and conditions
         of this Agreement, the Agreement to Assign Certain Interests in
         Intellectual Property Rights between the Assignors and the Assignee and
         the Deed of Assignment. Further, the Relevant Interest Holder agrees
         that, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any portion
         of this Clause 5 is in violation of statute or public policy, only the

         be stricken and all other portions of this Clause that do not violate
         statute or public policy shall continue in full force and effect. If
         any one or more provisions contained in this Clause 5 is determined by
         a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessively broad as to
         duration, scope, activity or subject, or is unreasonable or
         unenforceable under applicable laws, such provisions will be construed
         by limiting, reducing, modifying or amending them so as to be
         enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.

         shall keep this Agreement and the terms thereof confidential. The
         Relevant Interest Holder hereby acknowledges and understands that the
         Assignee is a public company which files reports under the Securities
         and Exchange Commission which become public knowledge and the Assignee
         may therefore be required to disclose this Agreement and the terms
         thereof in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

         the laws of the State of New York. The Parties hereto submit to the
         exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state Courts located in the
         Borough of Manhattan, City of New York. Each of the Parties hereto
         hereby waives any and all defenses based upon personal jurisdiction or
         venue, including defenses based on forum non conveniens. Further, the

         Agreement, any finding by a court of competent jurisdiction of a
         material breach of this Agreement shall entitle the prevailing Party to
         recover its or their costs and fees, including attorneys' fees,
         incurred as a result of the other Party's material breach of this
         Agreement.
