including all expenses and services related to sales of such Actimmune Units,
such as maintenance of safety databases, etc., tracked on a regular basis and
properly accounted for, at hourly rates to be agreed on by the Parties.


                                     SECTION 2
                            SERVICES PERFORMED; PAYMENTS

     2.1  SERVICES.  During the Period, InterMune shall perform, or have
performed, order entry, packaging, shipping, invoicing, and credit and
collection services (subject to Section 2.3(b)) related to sales of Actimmune
Units.  All such services shall be performed on a timely basis consistent with
standard industry practices.

     2.2  PRODUCT MANAGEMENT COSTS.  Except for Product Management Costs,
InterMune shall receive no separate consideration for providing services
under this Agreement.  No later than thirty (30) days after the end of each
Collection Period, InterMune shall invoice Connetics for Product Management

invoices within thirty (30) days after receipt of the invoice.  InterMune's
invoice shall be accompanied by a statement itemizing such Product Management
Costs, including a list of all relevant projects, services provided, travel
and other expenses. InterMune agrees that it will not include in Product
Management Costs any non-headcount related expenses or extraordinary expenses
without first obtaining Connetics' authorization to incur such expenses.  Any
expenses incurred with the consent of the Commercialization Committee formed
pursuant to Section 2.7 shall be deemed to have been authorized by Connetics
for purposes of this Section 2.2.

     2.3  ACCOUNTING FOR ACTIMMUNE UNIT SALES; PAYMENTS TO CONNETICS.

          (a)  RECORDING REVENUE.  During the Period, InterMune agrees that
     Connetics shall be entitled to book the Actimmune Net Sales until the total
     Actimmune Units sold reaches the Baseline applicable for each calendar year
     during the Period, all in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles, and InterMune will not book such Net Sales or otherwise record
     the revenue related to the Net Sales that Connetics is entitled to book
     pursuant to this Agreement.  For clarification, the payment which Connetics
     receives from InterMune pursuant to subsection (c) below, and the sales of
     Actimmune Units represented thereby, shall accrue to the total Actimmune
     Net Sales booked by Connetics for 1999.  InterMune shall be entitled to
     book the Actimmune Net Sales for sales of all Actimmune Units above the
     Baseline, after the Baseline is met in a given calendar year.

          (b)  PAYMENTS TO CONNETICS.  InterMune shall pay to Connetics the
     amount of Actimmune Gross Margin each Collection Period, until the total
     Actimmune Units sold reaches the applicable Baseline in each calendar year
     during the Period, according to the following schedule:  no later than
     [ * ] business days after the end of each Collection Period, InterMune
     shall (i) submit to Connetics the reports required pursuant to Section 2.4
     for the Collection Period just ended, and (ii) remit payment for the
     Collection Period immediately preceding such Collection Period, together
     with a statement as described in Section 2.4.  For purposes of this
     Agreement, payments for a given Collection Period shall be due on the
     [ * ] business day after the end of the first full calendar month following
     that Collection Period

                                  PAGE 3 OF 12

<PAGE>

     ("Due Date").  To the extent that InterMune has not received payment for
     sales of Actimmune Units for a given Collection Period, InterMune's
     remittance on the Due Date may exclude any such unpaid amounts, but
     InterMune shall remit such amount withheld from Actimmune Gross Margin on
     the next Due Date, regardless of whether InterMune has received payment.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such unpaid amount from a purchaser of
     Actimmune Units remains unpaid six (6) months after the date of invoice
     ("Bad Debt"), then Connetics shall reimburse InterMune for such Bad Debt
     within thirty (30) days following the end of such six month period.  In
     such case, InterMune shall provide to Connetics the necessary documentation
     in its possession for the accounting for and  collection of such Bad Debt,
     and shall permit Connetics to pursue collection for such Bad Debt.

          (c)  GROSS MARGIN FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF 1999.  InterMune will make
     a one-time payment to Connetics on the Effective Date equal to Actimmune
     Gross Margin for the period from January 15, 1999 to March 31, 1999, in the
     amount of one hundred fifty-three thousand six hundred fifty-five dollars
     ($153,655), together with supporting documentation as described in
     this Article 2.  The amount paid will count toward the total Actimmune Net
     Sales booked by Connetics for 1999, as set forth in paragraph (a) above.

          (d)  OVERDUE PAYMENTS.  For each Collection Period, if InterMune fails
     to remit payment by the Due Date, the amount due shall accrue interest at
     the rate of [ * ] per year until the amount due together with all accrued
     interest are paid in full.  If InterMune fails for [ * ] consecutive
     Collection Periods to remit payment by the Due Date, InterMune hereby
     agrees that Connetics shall have the right (at its sole option) to modify
     the payment structure described in subsection (b) above so that Connetics
     collects all revenue with respect to sales of Actimmune Units, withholds
     the Actimmune Gross Margin, and remits the balance to InterMune.  In such
     event:

               (i)   InterMune shall take all action necessary to provide
          Connetics with the necessary permissions and authorization to make
          such modifications to the payment structure, in accordance with a
          payment and reporting schedule equivalent to that set forth in
          Subsection (b) above;

               (ii)  The provisions of Sections 2.4 and 2.6 shall apply MUTATIS
          MUTANDIS; and

               (iii) At the termination or expiration of this Agreement,
          Connetics' right to collect revenues for the sales of Actimmune Units
          shall terminate and InterMune shall thereafter have the right to
          collect all revenues for such sales.  Connetics shall take all action
          necessary to provide InterMune with the necessary permissions and
          authorization to allow InterMune to collect such revenues.

          (e)  SALES BELOW BASELINE.  The Parties agree that, if Actimmune Unit
     sales are [ * ] or more below the Baseline (on a quarterly-adjusted basis)
     for a period of [ * ] days following [ * ], they will meet to evaluate the
     effect of [ * ] on sales volume compared with historical trends and other
     market dynamics.  If the sales of Actimmune Units remain below the Baseline
     for the second [ * ] day period following such price increase, the Parties
     agree


[ * ] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY
BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 406 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.

                                  PAGE 4 OF 12

<PAGE>

     to re-set the Baseline, provided that such lower sales are not attributable
     to an extraordinary circumstance, such as an interruption in supply.  If,
     however, sales of Actimmune Units increase during such second [ * ] day
     period, the Parties agree to review the market dynamics and trends from
     prior years with respect to CGD patients, and to make a final decision
     regarding whether and to what extent to re-set the Baseline.  The revised
     Baseline number shall be deemed to be the Baseline for all relevant
     purposes of this Agreement beginning with the date the revised Baseline is
     agreed upon (or such earlier date as the Parties may agree).  If the
     Parties cannot agree on an appropriate adjustment to the Baseline following
     [ * ] as set forth in this subsection, then the proposals of each Party
     shall be referred for resolution according to the mechanism set forth in
     Section 5.9.

          (f)  SALES ABOVE THE BASELINE.  During 2000 and 2001, if Actimmune
     Net Sales in any given calendar quarter exceed the Baseline (as may be
     adjusted pursuant to subsection (e) above) for that quarter by more than
     twenty-five percent (25%), Connetics agrees that it will make available
     to InterMune a short-term loan for the purpose of offsetting any deferred
     net profits that InterMune might have realized for such quarter had it
     been entitled to book those Actimmune Net Sales. The Parties agree to
     negotiate the terms of such a loan in good faith, in an amount that
     approximates the profits deferred by InterMune for Actimmune Unit sales
     above Baseline for the relevant quarter, at an interest rate equivalent
     to Connetics' then current short-term investment rate, and that repayment
     of the loan shall be tied to InterMune's right to book sales after
     Baseline is met for the year. The loan shall be made in accordance with
     documentation to be mutually agreed upon at the time of the loan.

     2.4  MONTHLY STATEMENTS AND REPORTS TO BE PROVIDED BY INTERMUNE. On the
[ * ] business day of each month, InterMune shall furnish to Connetics:

          (a)  with respect to the Collection Period just ended, a report or
     reports (in a format reasonably acceptable to Connetics), listing the
     quantities of Actimmune Units sold and related sales dollars (itemized by
     customer and/or distributor), cost of Actimmune Units sold, inventory of
     Actimmune Units as of the end of the Collection Period, accounts receivable
     aging summary, returns, chargebacks, and rebates; and

          (b)  with respect to the Collection Period ended a month earlier,
     payment of the Actimmune Gross Margin together with a statement that
     reconciles the payment submitted with the reports submitted for the same
     Collection Period in the prior month, and which includes all the
     information necessary to calculate Actimmune Gross Sales, Actimmune Net
     Sales, Actimmune Gross Margin and the payment made to Connetics.  The
     principal financial officer of InterMune shall certify that such monthly
     statement complies with this Agreement.

In addition to the periodic reporting outlined above, InterMune shall continue
to permit Connetics [ * ] as InterMune might use during the term of this
Agreement.  The initial report pursuant to subsection 2.4(a) shall be due on
May 4, 1999, and the initial statement and payment pursuant to subsection 2.4(b)
shall be due on June 2, 1999.  InterMune's obligation to submit reports,
statements and payments shall continue after the term of this Agreement, until
all Collection Periods during the term have been fully accounted for.

     2.5  ROYALTY PAYMENTS TO GENENTECH.  InterMune shall remit to Genentech any
amounts payable on Actimmune Net Sales for third party royalties and for GNE
Royalties, all as required by the Genentech License.  InterMune covenants and
agrees to remit the full amount of


[ * ] = CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY
BRACKETS, HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 406 OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.

                                  PAGE 5 OF 12

<PAGE>

such royalties directly to Genentech or the applicable third party, and shall
indemnify Connetics against any action by Genentech or such third party to
collect royalties for Actimmune Unit Sales made after the Effective Date and
during the term of this Agreement.

     2.6  AUDIT.  During the term of this Agreement, and for [ * ] years after
expiration or termination of this Agreement, InterMune shall permit an
independent auditor, reasonably acceptable to InterMune, to have access to
InterMune's records as may be necessary to verify the accuracy of the statements
provided to Connetics under this Agreement, including Actimmune Gross Sales,
Actimmune Net Sales, and Actimmune Gross Margin, and to assure that InterMune
has complied with the payment terms of this Agreement.  Such records shall be
open during reasonable business hours for examination at Connetics' expense, and
not more often than once each calendar year, by such independent auditor (who
shall be required to enter into a binder of confidentiality with InterMune).

     2.7  COMMERCIALIZATION COMMITTEE. The Parties shall establish a
Commercialization Committee which shall be responsible for monitoring progress,
managing information exchange between the Parties, deciding key strategies and
solving problems with respect to commercialization and promotion of Actimmune
for the CGD market.  At the first meeting of the Commercialization Committee,
the members shall establish a regular meeting time and structure, and appoint a
secretary whose responsibility it will be to coordinate the timing, notice, and
agendas for Commercialization Committee meetings.


                                     SECTION 3
                           MANUFACTURING COST TRANSITION

     3.1  OFFSET TO TRANSITION COSTS.  The Parties anticipate that the
transfer of manufacturing to a third party manufacturer could result in a
substantial reduction in the Product Cost for Actimmune.  As an incentive to
InterMune to complete the transfer of manufacturing of Actimmune to a third
party manufacturer pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Genentech Supply Agreement
before May 2001, and in consideration of an increase in Actimmune Gross
Margin during the Period by virtue of such lower Product Cost, Connetics
agrees to reimburse InterMune for half of InterMune's actual costs to effect
such transfer of manufacturing up to a maximum payment of $420,000 (I.E., 50%
of $840,000 actual costs), subject to adjustment as follows for each
subsequent quarter that the transfer is not complete:

* The amounts payable by Connetics listed above assume a
minimum reduction of forty percent (40%) in Product Cost (I.E., a new Product
Cost that is at least 40% lower than the Product Cost as of the Effective
Date).  Accordingly, if the transition is completed by the target date but
results in a savings of less than 40%, the amount payable by Connetics shall
be reduced in proportion to the lower savings.  By way of example, if the
transfer is completed before July 1, 2000, but results in a savings of 20%
instead of 40%, the maximum amount payable by Connetics shall be $210,000.

     3.2  COMPLETION OF MANUFACTURING TRANSFER.  For purposes of this Agreement,
the transfer of manufacturing from Genentech to a third party manufacturer shall
be deemed to be complete in the first Collection Period for which [ * ].

shall be payable in cash no later than thirty (30) days following completion of
the manufacturing transfer as set forth in Section 3.2.

Party agrees that, during the term of this Agreement and for [ * ] years after
the expiration or termination of this Agreement, it shall keep confidential and
shall not publish or otherwise disclose and shall not use for any purpose other

matter to the President of InterMune and the Chief Executive Officer of
Connetics for discussion and resolution.  Either Party may initiate such
informal dispute resolution by sending written notice of the dispute to the
other Party, and within ten (10) days after such notice such representatives of
the Parties shall meet for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations.

          (b)  If such personnel are unable to resolve such dispute within
thirty (30) days of initiating such negotiations, either Party may seek to have
such dispute resolved by binding arbitration under this Section 5.9.  The
arbitration shall be held in Palo Alto, California according to the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the "Rules").  The
arbitration will be conducted by a panel of three (3) arbitrators who are
knowledgeable in the subject matter that is at issue in the dispute, are not
affiliated directly or indirectly with either Party, and are selected by mutual
agreement of the Parties.  Failing such agreement, the arbitrators shall be
selected appointed as provided in the Rules.  During the arbitration, the
Parties shall have such discovery rights as the arbitrators may allow,
consistent with the discovery permitted by the Federal Code of Civil Procedure.
In conducting the arbitration, the arbitrators shall apply the rules of evidence
applicable in California, and shall be able to decree any and all relief of an
equitable nature, including but not limited to such relief as a temporary
restraining order, a preliminary injunction, or a permanent injunction, as well
as specific performance.  The arbitrators shall also be able to award direct and
indirect damages, but shall not award any other form of damage (E.G., punitive
or exemplary damages).

          (c)  The reasonable fees and expenses, of the arbitrators, along with
the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing Party (including all
expert witness fees and expenses), the fees and expenses of a court reporter,
and any expenses for a hearing room, shall be paid as follows:  If the
arbitrators rule in favor of one Party on all disputed issues in the
arbitration, the losing Party shall pay 100% of such fees and expenses; if the
arbitrators rule in favor of one Party on some issues and the other Party on
other issues, the arbitrators shall issue with the rulings a written
determination as to how such fees and expenses shall be allocated between the
Parties.  The arbitrators shall allocate fees and expenses in a way that bears a
reasonable relationship to the outcome of the arbitration, with the Party
prevailing on more issues, or on issues of greater value or gravity, recovering
a relatively larger share of its legal fees and expenses.

          (d)  The decision of the arbitrators shall be final and may be
entered, sued on or enforced by the Party in whose favor it runs in any court of
competent jurisdiction at the option of such Party.  Whether a claim, dispute or
other matter in question would be barred by the applicable statute of
limitations, which statute of limitations also shall apply to any claim or
disputes subject to arbitration under this Section, shall be determined by
binding arbitration pursuant to this Section.

     5.11 FORCE MAJEURE.  Any delays in performance by any Party under this
Agreement shall not be considered a breach of this Agreement if and to the
extent caused by occurrences beyond the reasonable control of the Party
affected, including but not limited to acts of God, embargoes, governmental
restrictions, fire, flood, explosion, riots, wars, civil disorder, rebellion or
sabotage.  The Party suffering such occurrence shall immediately notify the
other Party as soon as practicable, and any time for performance hereunder shall
be extended by the actual time of delay caused by the occurrence.

valid without impairing the Parties' original interest.
