Re: Separation Agreement

Dear Chris:

This letter sets forth the substance of the separation agreement (the “Agreement”) which Micromet,
Inc. (the “Company”) is offering to you to aid in your employment transition.

     1. Separation. You have voluntarily resigned from your employment with the Company. Your
last day of work with the Company and your employment termination date will be December 10, 2007
(the “Separation Date”).

     2. Accrued Salary and Vacation. On the next regular payroll date following the Separation
Date, the Company will pay you all accrued salary, and all accrued and unused vacation earned
through the Separation Date, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. You will
receive these payments regardless of whether or not you sign this Agreement.

     3. Severance Benefits. Although the Company has no obligation to do so, if you execute this
Agreement, the Company will provide the severance benefits described below (the “Severance
Benefits”), provided that you are not in material breach of this Agreement or any other written
agreement you may have executed with the Company:

          a. Severance Payments. The Company will make severance payments to you in the form of
continuation of your base salary in effect on the Separation Date for six (6) months following the
Separation Date or until you secure full-time employment with another employer, whichever period is
shorter. You agree to notify the Company immediately if you accept such other employment. These
payments will be subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings and will be made on the
Company’s ordinary payroll dates, beginning with the first such date which occurs following the
Company’s receipt of your executed Agreement.

 

 

          b. Health Insurance Continuation. If you are currently participating in the Company’s group
health insurance plans as of the Separation Date, to the extent provided by applicable state
insurance laws and by the Company’s current group health insurance policies, you may be eligible to
continue your group health insurance benefits or to convert to an individual policy at your own
expense through the provider of the Company’s health insurance, if you wish. However, if you
timely elect and remain eligible for continued coverage, the Company, as part of this Agreement,
will pay that portion of your health insurance premiums it was paying prior to the Separation Date
for the earlier of the six-month period following the Separation Date or until you are eligible to
receive healthcare benefits from a new employer, to the extent such coverage remains available to
you under the applicable policy. You agree to notify the Company immediately if you become eligible
for such coverage with a new employer.

This Agreement supersedes any provision in the Executive Employee Agreement between you and the
Company dated October 10, 2006 (your “Employment Agreement”) concerning or relating to severance
payments. You agree you are not eligible for any severance payments and benefits except as
provided in this paragraph 3 and you are not eligible for the Severance Benefits described in this
paragraph 3, except in exchange for your execution and non-revocation of this Agreement.

     4. Benefit Plans.

The Company’s reimbursement of the premiums for your life insurance, AD&D and long-term care
insurance will cease as of the Separation Date.

Deductions for the 401(k) Plan will end with your last regular paycheck. You will receive
information by mail concerning 401(k) plan rollover procedures should you be a participant in this
program.

You have the right to continue to utilize funds in your current Health Care Spending Account if you
are participating in this program. Unless you elect to continue your Health Care Spending Account,
you will only be eligible to claim expense that you incurred prior to the Separation Date.

     5. Stock Options. You were granted an option to purchase 225,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock, pursuant to the Micromet, Inc. Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Award Plan
(the “Plan”). Under the terms of the Plan and your stock option agreement, vesting will cease as
of the Separation Date. Your rights to exercise your options as to any vested shares will expire,
on the date that is ninety (90) days after the Separation Date.

     6. Other Compensation or Benefits. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this
Agreement, you will not receive any additional compensation, severance or benefits after the
Separation Date.

     7. Expense Reimbursements. If you have been issued any Company credit or calling cards, the
Company will cancel these card(s) effective as of the Separation Date. You agree that, within ten
(10) days of the Separation Date, you will submit your final documented expense reimbursement
statement reflecting all business expenses you incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for
which you seek reimbursement. The Company will reimburse you for reasonable business expenses
pursuant to its regular business practice.

     8. Return of Company Property. By the Separation Date, you agree to return to the Company all
Company documents (and all copies thereof) and other Company property that you have had in your
possession at any time, including, but not limited to, Company files, notes, drawings, records,
business plans and forecasts, financial information, specifications, computer-recorded information,
tangible property (including, but not limited to, computers), credit cards, entry cards,
identification badges and keys; and, any materials of any kind that contain or embody any
proprietary or confidential information of the Company (and all reproductions thereof). Please
coordinate return of Company property with Matthias Alder. Receipt of the Severance Benefits described in paragraph 3 of this Agreement is
expressly conditioned upon return of all Company property.

     9. Proprietary Information Obligations. Both during and after your employment you acknowledge
your continuing obligations under your Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement
not to use or disclose any confidential or proprietary information of the Company and to refrain
from certain solicitation and competitive activities under Sections 9, 10, 11.3 through 11.5 of
your Employment Agreement. You further acknowledge your cooperation obligations under Section 7.7
of your Employment Agreement and your continuing obligations under Section 11.2 of your Employment
Agreement not to disclose the terms therein. A copy of your Proprietary Information and Inventions
Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A and a copy of Sections 7.7, 9, 10, 11.2 through 11.5 of
your Employment Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit B. If you have any doubts as to the scope
of the restrictions in your agreement, you should contact Matthias Alder immediately to assess your
compliance. As you know, the Company will enforce its contract rights. Please familiarize
yourself with the enclosed Agreement which you signed.

     10. Confidentiality. The provisions of this Agreement will be held in strictest confidence by
you and will not be publicized or disclosed in any manner whatsoever; provided, however, that: (a)
you may disclose this Agreement to your immediate family; (b) you may disclose this Agreement in
confidence to your attorney, accountant, auditor, tax preparer, and financial advisor; and (c) you
may disclose this Agreement insofar as such disclosure may be required by law.

     11. Non-disparagement. Both you and the Company agree not to disparage the other party, and
the other party’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents, in any manner likely to
be harmful to them or their business, business reputation or personal reputation; provided that
both you and the Company will respond accurately and fully to any question, inquiry or request for
information when required by legal process. The Company’s obligations under this section are
limited to the Company’s executive officers as the Company representatives with knowledge of the
provisions of this Agreement. The Company will respond to reference requests in accordance with
the Company’s policy by providing information only with regard to the dates of your employment and
the scope of your job responsibilities. Please direct all requests for references from prospective
employers to Christian Itin or Matthias Adler.

     12. Cooperation after Termination. During the time that you are receiving payments under this
Agreement, you agree to cooperate fully with the Company by making yourself reasonably available
during regular business hours in all matters relating to the transition of your work and
responsibilities on behalf of the Company, including, but not limited to, any present, prior or
subsequent relationships and the orderly transfer of any such work and institutional knowledge to
such other persons as may be designated by the Company.

     13. Release. In exchange for the payments and other consideration under this Agreement, to
which you would not otherwise be entitled, and except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, you
hereby generally and completely release, acquit and forever discharge the Company, its parents and
subsidiaries, and its and their officers, directors, managers, partners, agents, employees,
attorneys, shareholders, successors, assigns and affiliates, of and from any and all claims,
liabilities, demands, causes of action, costs, expenses, attorneys fees, damages, indemnities and
obligations of every kind and nature, in law, equity, or otherwise, both known and unknown,
suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to
agreements, events, acts or conduct at any time prior to and including the execution date of this
Agreement, including but not limited to: all such claims and demands directly or indirectly
arising out of or in any way connected with your employment with the Company or the termination of
that employment; claims or demands related to salary, bonuses, commissions, stock, stock options,
or any other ownership interests in the Company, vacation pay, fringe benefits, expense
reimbursements, severance pay, or any other form of compensation; claims pursuant to any federal,
state or local law, statute, or cause of action; tort law; or contract law. The claims and causes
of action you are releasing and waiving in this Agreement include, but are not limited to, any and
all claims and causes of action that the Company, its parents and subsidiaries, and its and their
respective officers, directors, agents, servants, employees, attorneys, shareholders, successors,
assigns or affiliates:

3

 

	 	•	 	has violated its personnel policies, handbooks, contracts of employment, or
covenants of good faith and fair dealing;
	 
	 	•	 	has discriminated against you on the basis of age, race, color, sex (including
sexual harassment), national origin, ancestry, disability, religion, sexual
orientation, marital status, parental status, source of income, entitlement to
benefits, any union activities or other protected category in violation of any local,
state or federal law, constitution, ordinance, or regulation, including but not limited
to: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; 42 U.S.C. § 1981, as
amended; the Equal Pay Act; the Americans With Disabilities Act; the Family and Medical
Leave Act; Delaware Discrimination in Employment Act; Maryland Human Relations
Commissions Act, Article 49B of the Maryland Code; the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act; Section 510; and the National Labor Relations Act;
	 
	 	•	 	has violated any statute, public policy or common law (including but not
limited to claims for retaliatory discharge; negligent hiring, retention or
supervision; defamation; intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress
and/or mental anguish; intentional interference with contract; negligence; detrimental
reliance; loss of consortium to you or any member of your family and/or promissory
estoppel).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you are not releasing any right of indemnification you may have for
any liabilities arising from your actions within the course and scope of your employment with the
Company or within the course and scope of your role as an officer of the Company. Also excluded
from this Agreement are any claims which cannot be waived by law. You are waiving, however, your
right to any monetary recovery should any governmental agency or entity, such as the EEOC or the
DOL, pursue any claims on your behalf. You also acknowledge that (i) the consideration given to
you in exchange for the waiver and release in this Agreement is in addition to anything of value to
which you were already entitled; (ii) that you have been paid for all time worked, have received
all the leave, leaves of absence and leave benefits and protections for which you are eligible,
and have not suffered any on-the-job injury for which you have not already filed a claim; (iii) you
have been given sufficient time to consider this Agreement and to consult an attorney or advisor
of your choosing; and (iv) you are knowingly and voluntarily executing this Agreement waiving and
releasing any claims you may have as of the date you execute it.

     14. No Admission. This Agreement does not constitute an admission by the Company of any
wrongful action or violation of any federal, state, or local statute, or common law rights,
including those relating to the provisions of any law or statute concerning employment actions, or
of any other possible or claimed violation of law or rights.

     15. Breach. You agree that upon any breach of this Agreement you will forfeit all amounts paid
or owing to you under this Agreement. Further, you acknowledge that it may be impossible to assess
the damages caused by your violation of the terms of paragraphs 8, 9, 10, and 11 of this Agreement
and further agree that any threatened or actual violation or breach of those paragraphs of this
Agreement will constitute immediate and irreparable injury to the Company. You therefore agree
that any such breach of this Agreement is a material breach of this Agreement, and, in addition to
any and all other damages and remedies available to the Company upon your breach of this Agreement,
the Company shall be entitled to an injunction to prevent you from violating or breaching this
Agreement. You agree that if the Company is successful in whole or part in any legal or equitable
action against you under this Agreement, you agree to pay all of the costs, including reasonable
attorney’s fees, incurred by the Company in enforcing the terms of this Agreement.

4

 

     16. Miscellaneous. This Agreement, including Exhibits A and B, constitutes the complete,
final and exclusive embodiment of the entire agreement between you and the Company with regard to
this subject matter. It is entered into without reliance on any promise or representation, written
or oral, other than those expressly contained herein, and it supersedes any other such promises,
warranties or representations. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in a writing
signed by both you and a duly authorized officer of the Company. This Agreement will bind the
heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of both you and the Company, and inure to
the benefit of both you and the Company, their heirs, successors and assigns. If any provision of
this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, this
determination will not affect any other provision of this Agreement and the provision in question
will be modified by the court so as to be rendered enforceable. This Agreement will be deemed to
have been entered into and will be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State
of Delaware.

Thank you for your services during your tenure at the Company. I wish you good luck in your future
endeavors.

Sincerely,

Micromet, Inc.

Micromet, Inc.

EMPLOYEE PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND INVENTIONS AGREEMENT

     In consideration of my employment or continued employment by Micromet, Inc., its subsidiaries,
parents, affiliates, successors and assigns (together, the “Company”) and the compensation now and
hereafter paid to me, I hereby enter into this Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement
(the “Agreement”) and agree as follows:

1. Nondisclosure.

     1.1 Recognition of Company’s Rights; Nondisclosure. I understand and acknowledge that my
employment by Company creates a relationship of confidence and trust with respect to Company’s
Proprietary Information (defined below) and that Company has a protectable interest therein. At
all times during my employment and thereafter, I will hold in strictest confidence and will not
disclose, use, lecture upon or publish any of Company’s Proprietary Information, except as such
disclosure, use or publication may be required in connection with my work for Company, or unless an
officer of Company expressly authorizes such in writing. I will obtain Company’s written approval
before publishing or submitting for publication any material (written, verbal, or otherwise) that
relates to my work at Company and/or incorporates any Proprietary Information. I hereby assign to
Company any rights I may have or acquire in such Proprietary Information and recognize that all
Proprietary Information will be the sole property of Company and its assigns. I will take all
reasonable precautions to prevent the inadvertent or accidental disclosure of Proprietary
Information.

     1.2 Proprietary Information. The term “Proprietary Information” will mean any and all
confidential and/or proprietary knowledge, data or information of Company, its affiliates, parents
and subsidiaries, whether having existed, now existing, or to be developed during my employment.
By way of illustration but not limitation, “Proprietary Information” includes (a) trade secrets,
inventions, mask works, ideas, processes, formulas, source and object codes, data, programs, other
works of authorship, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs and techniques and
any other proprietary technology and all Proprietary Rights therein (hereinafter collectively
referred to as “Inventions”); (b) information regarding research, development, new products,
marketing and selling, business plans, budgets and unpublished financial statements, licenses,
prices and costs, margins, discounts, credit terms, pricing and billing policies, quoting
procedures, methods of obtaining business, forecasts, future plans and potential strategies,
financial projections and business strategies, operational plans, financing and capital-raising
plans, activities and agreements, internal services and operational manuals, methods of conducting
Company business, suppliers and supplier information, and purchasing; (c) information regarding
customers and potential customers of Company, including customer lists, names, representatives,
their needs or desires with respect to the types of products or services offered by Company,
proposals, bids, contracts and their contents and parties, the type and quantity of products and
services provided or sought to be provided to customers and potential customers of Company and
other non-public information relating to customers and potential customers; (d) information
regarding any of Company’s business partners and their services, including names; representatives,
proposals, bids, contracts and their contents and parties, the type and quantity of products and
services received by Company, and other non-public information relating to business partners; (e)
information regarding personnel, employee lists, compensation, and employee skills; and (f) any
other non-public information which a competitor of Company could use to the competitive
disadvantage of Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that, at all such times,
I am free to use information which is generally known in the trade or industry through no breach of
this agreement or other act or omission by me.

     1.3 Third Party Information. I understand, in addition, that Company has received and in the
future will receive from third parties their confidential and/or proprietary knowledge, data, or
information (“Third Party Information”). During my employment and thereafter, I will hold Third
Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than Company
personnel who need to know such information in connection with their work for Company) or use,
except in connection with my work for Company, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized
by an officer of Company in writing.

A-1.

 

     1.4 Term of Nondisclosure Restrictions. I understand that Proprietary Information and Third
Party Information is never to be used or disclosed by me, as provided in this Section 1. If,
however, a court decides that this Section 1 or any of its provisions is unenforceable for lack of
reasonable temporal limitation and the Agreement or its restriction(s) cannot otherwise be
enforced, I agree and Company agrees that the two (2) year period after the date my employment ends
will be the temporal limitation relevant to the contested restriction, provided, however, that this
sentence will not apply to trade secrets protected without temporal limitation under applicable
law.

     1.5 No Improper Use of Information of Prior Employers and Others. During my employment by
Company I will not improperly use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if
any, of any former employer or any other person to whom I have an obligation of confidentiality,
and I will not bring onto the premises of Company any unpublished documents or any property
belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom I have an obligation of
confidentiality unless consented to in writing by that former employer or person.

2. Assignment of Inventions.

     2.1 Proprietary Rights. The term “Proprietary Rights” will mean all trade secrets, patents,
copyrights, trade marks, mask works and other intellectual property rights throughout the world.

     2.2 Assignment of Inventions. Subject to Subsections 2.3 and 2.5, I hereby assign and agree
to assign in the future (when any such Inventions or Proprietary Rights are first reduced to
practice or first fixed in a tangible medium, as applicable) to Company all my right, title and
interest in and to any and all Inventions (and all Proprietary Rights with respect thereto) whether
or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes, made or conceived or reduced
to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my
employment with Company. Inventions assigned to Company, or to a third party as directed by
Company pursuant to this Section 2, are hereinafter referred to as “Company Inventions.”

     2.3 Unassigned or Nonassignable Inventions. I recognize that this Agreement will not be
deemed to require assignment of any Invention that I developed entirely on my own time without
using Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities, trade secrets, or Proprietary Information, except
for those Inventions that either (i) relate to Company’s actual or anticipated business, research
or development, or (ii) result from or are connected with work performed by me for Company. In
addition, this Agreement does not apply to any Invention which qualifies fully for protection from
assignment to Company under any specifically applicable state law, regulation, rule, or public
policy (“Specific Inventions Law”).

     2.4 Obligation to Keep Company Informed. During the period of my employment and for six (6)
months after termination of my employment with Company, I will promptly disclose to Company fully
and in writing all Inventions authored, conceived or reduced to practice by me, either alone or
jointly with others. In addition, I will promptly disclose to Company all patent applications
filed by me or on my behalf within a year after termination of employment. At the time of each
such disclosure, I will advise Company in writing of any Inventions that I believe fully qualify
for protection under the provisions of a Specific Inventions Law; and I will at that time provide
to Company in writing all evidence necessary to substantiate that belief. Company will keep in
confidence and will not use for any purpose or disclose to third parties without my consent any
confidential information disclosed in writing to Company pursuant to this Agreement relating to
Inventions that qualify fully for protection under a Specific Inventions Law. I will preserve the
confidentiality of any Invention that does not fully qualify for protection under a Specific
Inventions Law.

     2.5 Government or Third Party. I also agree to assign all my right, title and interest in and
to any particular Company Invention to a third party, including without limitation the United
States, as directed by Company.

     2.6 Works for Hire. I acknowledge that all original works of authorship which are made by me
(solely or jointly with others) within the scope of my employment and which are protectable by
copyright are “works made for hire,” pursuant to United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C., Section
101).

A-2.

 

     2.7 Enforcement of Proprietary Rights. I will assist Company in every proper way to obtain,
and from time to time enforce, United States and foreign Proprietary Rights relating to Company
Inventions in any and all countries. To that end I will execute, verify and deliver such documents
and perform such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as Company may reasonably request
for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing, sustaining and enforcing such
Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In addition, I will execute, verify and deliver
assignments of such Proprietary Rights to Company or its designee. My obligation to assist Company
with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Company Inventions in any and all countries
will continue beyond the termination of my employment, but Company will compensate me at a
reasonable rate after my termination for the time actually spent by me at Company’s request on such
assistance.

     In the event Company is unable for any reason, after reasonable effort, to secure my signature on
any document needed in connection with the actions specified in the preceding paragraph, I hereby
irrevocably designate and appoint Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as my agent
and attorney in fact, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to act for and in my behalf to
execute, verify and file any such documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further
the purposes of the preceding paragraph with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me.
I hereby waive and quitclaim to Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which I now
or may hereafter have for infringement of any Proprietary Rights assigned hereunder to Company.

3. Records. I agree to keep and maintain adequate and current records (in the form of
notes, sketches, drawings and in any other form that may be required by Company) of all Proprietary
Information developed by me and all Inventions made by me during the period of my employment at
Company, which records will be available to and remain the sole property of Company at all times.

4. Duty Of Loyalty During Employment. I agree that during the period of my employment by
Company I will not, without Company’s express written consent, directly or indirectly engage in any
employment or business activity which is directly or indirectly competitive with, or would
otherwise conflict with, my employment by Company.

5. Reasonableness Of Restrictions.

     5.1 I agree that I have read this entire Agreement and understand it. I agree that this
Agreement does not prevent me from earning a living or pursuing my career. I agree that the
restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable, proper, and necessitated by Company’s
legitimate business interests. I represent and agree that I am entering into this Agreement freely
and with knowledge of its contents with the intent to be bound by the Agreement and the
restrictions contained in it.

     5.2 In the event that a court finds this Agreement, or any of its restrictions, to be
ambiguous, unenforceable, or invalid, I and Company agree that the court will read the Agreement as
a whole and interpret the restriction(s) at issue to be enforceable and valid to the maximum extent
allowed by law.

     5.3 If the court declines to enforce this Agreement in the manner provided in subsection 5.2,
I and Company agree that this Agreement will be automatically modified to provide Company with the
maximum protection of its business interests allowed by law and I agree to be bound by this
Agreement as modified.

6. No Conflicting Agreement or Obligation. I represent that my performance of all the
terms of this Agreement and as an employee of Company does not and will not breach any agreement to

Company. I have not entered into, and I agree I will not enter into, any agreement either written
or oral in conflict herewith.

7. Return of Company Property. When I leave the employ of Company, I will deliver to

10. General Provisions

     10.1 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation of
this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware as applicable to contracts
made and wholly performed within the State of Delaware by residents of the State of Delaware, until
such time as the East Coast headquarter office location is determined, in which case this Agreement
will be governed by the laws of the state of the East Coast headquarter office location.

     10.2 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions, subsections, or sentences
contained in this Agreement will, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect the other
provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement will be construed as if such invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. If moreover, any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement will for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to
duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, it will be construed by limiting and reducing
it, so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable law as it will then
appear.

     10.3 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is for my benefit and the benefit of Company, its
successors, assigns, parent corporations, subsidiaries, affiliates, and purchasers, and will be
binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives.

     10.4 Survival. The provisions of this Agreement will survive the termination of my
employment, regardless of the reason, and the assignment of this Agreement by Company to any
successor in interest or other assignee.

     10.5 Employment Status. I agree and understand that nothing in this Agreement will change my
employment status or confer any right with respect to continuation of employment by Company, nor
will it interfere in any way with my right or Company’s right to terminate my employment at any
time, with or without cause or advance notice.

     10.6 Waiver. No waiver by Company of any breach of this Agreement will be a waiver of any
preceding or succeeding breach. No waiver by Company of any right under this Agreement will be
construed as a waiver of any other right. Company will not be required to give notice to enforce
strict adherence to all terms of this Agreement.

     10.7 Advice of Counsel. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT, IN EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT, I HAVE HAD THE
OPPORTUNITY TO SEEK THE ADVICE OF INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, AND I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL OF
THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE CONSTRUED AGAINST ANY PARTY
BY REASON OF THE DRAFTING OR PREPARATION HEREOF.

     10.8 Entire Agreement. The obligations pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 (except Subsection 2.7)
of this Agreement will apply to any time during which I was previously engaged, or am in the future
engaged, by Company as a consultant if no other agreement governs nondisclosure and assignment of
inventions during such period. This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior
discussions between us. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver
of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing and signed by the
party to be charged. Any subsequent change or changes in my duties, salary or compensation will
not affect the validity or scope of this Agreement.

Exhibit B

Sections 7.7, 9, 10, 11.3 through 11.5 of the Employment Agreement

 

 

     7.7 Cooperation Obligations.

          (a) Transition Activities. After delivery or receipt of any notice of termination by
Executive, and for a reasonable period following any termination of Executive’s employment for any
reason, Executive will fully cooperate with Company in all matters relating to the winding up of
Executive’s pending work and the orderly transfer of any such pending work to such other employees
as may be designated by Company.

          (b) Return of Company’s Property. If Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason
Company will have the right, at its option, to require Executive to vacate his offices prior to or
on the effective date of termination and to cease all activities on Company’s behalf. Upon the
termination of his employment in any manner, as a condition to the Executive’s receipt of any
post-termination benefits described in this Agreement, Executive will immediately surrender to
Company all lists, books and records of, or in connection with, Company’s business, and all other
property belonging to Company, it being distinctly understood that all such lists, books and
records, and other documents, are the property of Company. Executive will deliver to Company a
signed statement certifying compliance with this Section 7.7 prior to the receipt of any
post-termination benefits described in this Agreement.

          (c) Litigation. After the Employment Term, Executive will cooperate with Company in
responding to the reasonable requests of Company’s Chairman of the Board, CEO or General Counsel,
in connection with any and all existing or future litigation, arbitrations, mediations or
investigations brought by or against Company, or its or their respective affiliates, agents,
officers, directors or employees, whether administrative, civil or criminal in nature, in which
Company reasonably deems Executive’s cooperation necessary or desirable. In such matters,
Executive agrees to provide Company with reasonable advice, assistance and information, including
offering and explaining evidence, providing sworn statements, and participating in discovery and
trial preparation and testimony. Executive also agrees to promptly send Company copies of all
correspondence (for example, but not limited to, subpoenas) received by Executive in connection
with any such legal proceedings, unless Executive is expressly prohibited by law from so doing.

          (d) Expenses and Fees. Company will reimburse Executive for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by Executive as a result of his cooperation with the obligations described in this Section
0, within thirty (30) days of the presentation of appropriate documentation thereof, in accordance
with Company’s standard reimbursement policies and procedures. Except as provided in the preceding
sentence, Executive will not be entitled to any compensation for activities performed pursuant to
this Section 0 during the period in which Executive receives any Severance Benefits. Thereafter,
Company will pay Executive a compensation for activities performed pursuant to this Section 0 based
on an hourly rate of 160th of Executive’s monthly Base Salary immediately preceding the termination
of employment (the “Fees”). In performing obligations under this Section 0 following termination
of the employment, Executive agrees and acknowledges that he will be serving as an independent
contractor, not as a Company employee, and he will be entirely responsible for the payment of all
income taxes and any other taxes due and owing as a result of the payment of Fees, will not be
eligible to participate in any Company benefit plans while performing such services.

9. NON-COMPETITION

     Executive will not, for a period of twelve (12) months from the end of the Employment Term,
for Executive’s own account, or as owner, manager, officer, shareholder, consultant, director,
representative or employee of a company, participate in the research or development of (i)
antibodies against the EpCAM target molecule, or (ii) BiTE molecules or active agents which trigger
the same mechanism as BiTE molecules (collectively, the “Non-Compete Field”). The Board may, in its discretion, reduce the
scope of the Non-Compete Field.

 

 

10. NON-SOLICITATION

     While employed by Company, and for six (6) months immediately following the date of
termination of the employment, Executive will not interfere with the business of Company by (a)
soliciting, attempting to solicit, inducing, or otherwise causing any employee of Company to
terminate employment in order to become an employee, consultant or independent contractor to or for
any other person or entity; or (b) directly or indirectly causing any third party that provides
services to Company to terminate such business relationship.

11. GENERAL PROVISIONS

     11.3 Reasonableness of Restrictions. Executive acknowledges and agrees that (a) he has read
this entire Agreement and understands it, (b) the limitations imposed in this Agreement do not
prevent him from earning a living or pursuing his career following the termination of the
employment, and (c) the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable, proper, and
necessitated by Company’s legitimate business interests. Executive represents and agrees that he
is entering into this Agreement freely and with knowledge of its contents with the intent to be
bound by the Agreement and the restrictions contained in it.

     11.4 Remedies. Executive agrees that it may be impossible to assess the damages caused by
Executive’s violation of this Agreement or any of its terms. Executive agrees that any threatened
or actual violation of this Agreement or any of its terms will constitute immediate and irreparable
injury to Company and Company will have the right to enforce this Agreement and any of its
provisions by injunction, specific performance or other relief, without bond and without prejudice
to any other rights and remedies that Company may have for a breach or threatened breach of this
Agreement.

     11.5 Severability. In the event that a court finds this Agreement, or any of its
restrictions, to be ambiguous, unenforceable, or invalid, the parties agree that the court will
read the Agreement as a whole and interpret the restriction(s) at issue to be enforceable and valid
to the maximum extent allowed by law. If the court declines to enforce this Agreement in the
manner provided in this Section 0, Executive and Company agree that this Agreement will be
automatically modified to provide Company with the maximum protection of its business interests
allowed by law and Executive agrees to be bound by this Agreement as modified. In case any one or
more of the provisions, subsections, or sentences contained in this Agreement will, for any reason,
be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability will not affect the other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement will be
construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
