This agreement confirms our mutual

entitled, Gilatide Research Program, the scope of which is outlined in the
attached Axonyx/Gilatide Research Plan (the Overview Research Plan) (Appendix
A) and is hereby incorporated in this agreement by reference.

1.          The
Study shall be carried out by Thomas Jefferson University (University) for
Axonyx Inc. (the Company), under the scientific control of Professor Matthew
During, provided that, on a quarterly basis, research budgets and plans are to
be given to the Company and that on-going reviews by all appropriate and
necessary authorities are in accordance with all applicable laws and
regulations.  The University shall
obtain the aforesaid necessary or appropriate written evidence of all requisite
review and approval, including that of the Institutional Animal Care and Use
Committee (IACUC), Institutional Biosafety and the University’s Institutional
Review Board (IRB) responsible for overseeing human clinical trials.  The Overview Research Plan may be amended
from time to time upon written agreement of the parties hereto and with the
written approval of the authority that is required to approve the amendment.  The Company agrees that the  Overview Research Plan shall be amended to
the extent the institution’s IRB makes or conditions other requirements for
human clinical testing if the Company elects to perform such testing at the
University.  In such an event, the
Company shall have the right, 30 days after notification of such, to terminate
this agreement.

2.          This
Study shall begin on April 1, 2001 and shall extend for a 2-year period.  The Company shall have the right thereafter
to renew the Agreement on a year-by-year basis.

3.          In
consideration of performance of the Study, Company shall pay the University in
accordance with the attached budget and payment schedule (Appendix B) the
amount of  $250,000.  Payments should be made payable to Thomas
Jefferson University.  Appendix B is
hereby incorporated into this agreement by reference.

4.          The
University shall provide Company quarterly written reports concerning the Study
as outlined in the Overview Research Plan attached (Appendix A).

5.          The University grants to
the Company (and the Company accepts) an option (the “Option”) to acquire from
the University a world wide exclusive license to any invention arising out of
the Study and any invention covered by the Patent application entitled:[*****] on
the basic terms annexed to this Agreement as Appendix C.  The Company may exercise the Option by
giving notice in writing to the University at any time during the period of
this Agreement and any renewal hereof. 
Upon receipt by the University of the written notice exercising the
Option the University will grant, and will be deemed to have granted, to the
Company, a license on the basic terms set forth in Appendix C and on such other
terms and conditions as are customarily included in such license agreements,
which the parties shall negotiate in good faith.

6.          Results
of the Study may be published or presented to the scientific community provided
that patenting opportunities are not compromised and Company is allowed to
review and suggest revisions to any proposed publication for sixty days (60)
prior to submission for publication.

7.          University
and Company agree to maintain in confidence for a period of three (3) years
from the date of termination of this Agreement all information received from
the other party which is, at the time of disclosure in writing and clearly

party.  Such obligation of
confidentiality shall not apply to any information which, at the time of
disclosure, was in the possession of the receiving party, was generally available
to the public or thereafter becomes generally available to the public through a
source other than the receiving party, was rightfully obtained from a third
party, or was developed by or for the receiving party independent of any
disclosure under this Agreement.  In
addition to the above exclusions, the University shall have the right to
disclose Company's confidential information, if the University is required to
do so by the order of any governmental authority or by final judicial
order.  Company shall cooperate and
authorize release of data which is the subject of the Research to University's
internal committees as required by accrediting agencies or other governmental
agencies.  If required to report such
data to any governmental authority or agency, University shall use its best
efforts to maintain the confidentiality of such data.  The University shall in turn shall cooperate and authorize
release of data which is the subject of the Research to agencies or other
governmental agencies, as may be required from time to time by the
Company.  If required to report such
data to any governmental authority or agency, the Company shall use its best
efforts to maintain the confidentiality of such data.

8.          Neither
party shall employ or use the name of the other party or its employees in any
form for public distribution without prior written consent, which consent shall
not be unreasonable withheld.  However,
the Company shall be permitted to issue press releases describing material
events related to this Agreement and the Research as required by law.

9.          The
University shall at all times during the performance of this Agreement be and
remain as an independent contractor and not as an employee, agent, or joint
