         2.1 Restrictions on Transfers. Except as provided in this Agreement, no

Shares owned by such Common Holder, or any interest therein, and any attempt by
any Common Holder to effect a transfer in violation of this Section 2 shall be
void and ineffective for all purposes. The words "transfer" and "dispose"
include the making of any sale, exchange, assignment, gift, security interest,
pledge or other encumbrance, or any contract therefor, any voting trust or other
agreement or arrangement with respect to the transfer of voting rights or any
other beneficial interest in Restricted Founders Shares, the creation of any
other claim thereto or any other transfer or disposition whatsoever, whether
voluntary or involuntary, affecting the right, title, or possession with respect
to the Restricted Founders Shares.

         2.2 Third Party Offers. Each Common Holder hereby agrees that subject
to the terms and conditions set forth below, should any Common Holder (the
"Offeree Holder") receive one or more bona fide offers upon specific terms and
conditions (including a purchase price payable in cash or other property)
(collectively the "Purchase Offer"), from any persons, to purchase any
Restricted Founders Shares from such Offeree Holder, then such Offeree Holder
shall promptly notify the Preferred Holders of the terms and conditions of such
Purchase Offer (the "Notice").

         2.3 Right of First Refusal.

             (a) Each Preferred Holder shall have the right and option (subject
to the provisions of Section 2.3(c) hereof), for a period of 20 days after
receipt of the Notice, to buy all or any of its Proportionate Percentage (as
such term is defined below) of the Restricted Founders Shares so offered at the
purchase price and on the terms stated in the Purchase Offer and to offer, in
any written notice of acceptance, to purchase any of such Restricted Founders
Shares not purchased by other Preferred Holders, in which case such Restricted
Founders Shares not accepted by the other Preferred Holders shall be deemed to
have been offered to and accepted by the Preferred Holder(s) which exercised
their option under this Section 2.3(a) pro rata in accordance with their
respective Proportionate Percentages (as such term is defined below), on the
above-described terms and conditions.

                                      -3-
<PAGE>   6

             (b) Sales of Restricted Founders Shares under the terms of Section
2.3(a) above shall be made at the offices of the Company on a mutually
satisfactory business day within 15 days after the expiration of the aforesaid
offering period. Delivery of certificates or other instruments evidencing such
Restricted Founders Shares duly endorsed for transfer to the Preferred Holders
shall be made on such date against payment of the purchase price therefor.

             (c) If effective acceptance shall not be received pursuant to
Section 2.3(a) above with respect to all Restricted Founders Shares offered for
sale pursuant to the Notice, then the Offeree Holder may, subject to the
remaining provisions of Sections 2 and 6, sell all or any part of the remaining
Restricted Founders Shares so offered for sale at a price not less than the
price, an on terms and conditions not more favorable to the purchaser thereof
than the terms and conditions, stated in the original Purchase Offer at any time
within 90 days after the expiration of the offer required by Section 2.3(a)
above. In the event the remaining Restricted Founders Shares are not sold by the
Offeree Holder during such 90-day period, the right of the Offeree Holder to
sell such remaining Restricted Founders Shares shall expire and the obligations
of this Section 2 shall be reinstated; provided, however, that in the event the
Offeree Holder determines, at any time during such 90-day period, that the sale
of all or any part of the Restricted Founders Shares on the terms set forth in
the written notice of intention to sell is impractical, the Offeree Holder may
terminate the offer and reinstate the procedure provided in this Section 2
without waiting for the expiration of such 90-day period.

             (d) The Offeree Holder may specify in the Notice that all
Restricted Founders Shares mentioned therein must be sold, in which case any
acceptance received pursuant to Section 2.3(a) hereof shall be deemed
conditioned upon (A) receipt of one or more written notices of acceptance with
respect to all Restricted Founders Shares mentioned in such Notice and/or (B)
the sale of the remaining Restricted Founders Shares, if any, pursuant to
Section 2.3(c) above.

             (e) "Proportionate Percentage" shall mean the pro rata percentage
of shares of stock being offered by an Offeree Holder pursuant to Section 2.3
hereof which each Preferred Holder shall be entitled to purchase. Such pro rata
percentage, as to each such Preferred Holder, shall be the percentage figure
which expresses the ratio between the number of shares of outstanding Common
Stock owned by such Preferred Holder and the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock owned by all such Preferred Holders.

             (f) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Offeree Holder shall, in addition to complying with the provisions of this
Section 2.3 in the event of a proposed sale of Restricted Founders Shares,
comply with the provisions of Section 5.1 hereof.

         2.4 Exempt Transfers.

             (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Sections 2 and
5 hereof shall not apply to (i) any pledge of Restricted Founders Shares made by
a Founder pursuant to a bona fide loan transaction that creates a mere security
interest; (ii) any transfer to the ancestors, descendants or spouse or to trusts
for the benefit of such persons or a Founder; or (iii) any bona fide gift by a
Founder, provided that (A) the transferring Founder shall inform the Preferred
Holders of such

                                      -4-
<PAGE>   7

pledge, transfer or gift prior to effecting it and (B) the pledgee, transferee
or donee shall furnish the Preferred Holders with a written agreement to be
bound by and comply with all provisions of Sections 2 and 5 hereof. Such
transferred Restricted Founders Shares shall remain "Restricted Founders Shares"
hereunder, and such pledgee, transferee or donee shall be treated as a "Founder"
and "Common Holder" for purposes of this Agreement.

             (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Sections 2 and
5 hereof shall not apply to any transfer by CIT to a CIT Transferee or by
Virginia Commonwealth University or the Virginia Commonwealth University
Intellectual Property Foundation to a CIT Transferee, provided that such CIT
Transferee agrees in writing to be bound by and comply with all terms and
conditions of this Agreement. Such transferred Restricted Founders Shares shall
remain "Restricted Founders Shares" hereunder and such CIT Transferee shall be
treated as a "Common Holder" for purposes of this Agreement.

             (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Sections 2 and
5 shall not apply to the sale of any Restricted Founders Shares (i) to the
public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective
by, the Commission under the Securities Act; or (ii) to the Company; or (iii) if
prior to such sale, (A) the Common Holder (other than a Common Holder who is a
CIT Transferee) holds less than 2.5% of the Company's outstanding shares of
capital stock or (B) with respect to the Founders, the Founders collectively
hold less than 5.0% of the Company's outstanding shares of capital stock or (C)
with respect to the Common Holders, the Common Holders collectively hold less
than 0.5% of the Company's outstanding shares of capital stock.

         3. Right of First Offer on New Securities.

         3.1 Waiver of Right. The Holders under the Prior Rights Agreement waive
their Right of First Offer, including any notice rights pertaining thereto,
under the Prior Rights Agreement to purchase the shares of Series C Preferred
Stock being issued and sold under the Series C Purchase Agreement.

         3.2 Right of First Offer to Holders. The Company hereby grants to each
Holder the irrevocable and exclusive first option (the "First Option") to
purchase all or part of such Holders Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of any
New Securities (as defined in Section 3.4) which the Company may, from time to
time after the date of this Agreement, propose to issue and sell. For purposes
of this Section 3, a Holder's "Pro Rata Portion" shall be equal to the product
of (i) the total number of New Securities proposed to be issued multiplied by
(ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock
held by such Holder (computed as set forth in Section 3.3 hereof) as of the date
of the Company Notice provided by the Company pursuant to Section 3.5, and the
denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock which are
outstanding as of such date. Furthermore, if one or more Holders do not,
pursuant to Section 3.5, give notice of its or their intention to exercise in
full its or their option to purchase its or their Pro Rata Portion of the New
Securities, then each Holder who did give notice of such intent (collectively,
the "Fully Participating Holders") shall have the irrevocable and exclusive
second option (the "Second Option") to purchase all or a part of the New
Securities as to which a notice pursuant to the exercise of the First Option
could have been, but was not, delivered (for purposes of this Section 3, the
"Additional

                                      -5-
<PAGE>   8

New Securities"). If more than one Fully Participating Holder gives a notice (a
"Second Notice") pursuant to Section 3.5 of its intention to purchase Additional
New Securities pursuant to the exercise of the Second Option and the total
number of New Securities covered by such notices exceeds the total number of
Additional New Securities, then the Additional New Securities shall be allocated
among such Fully Participating Holders according to the following procedure, or
in such different proportions as such Fully Participating Holders shall agree
among themselves:

             (a) Each Oversubscribing Holder (as defined below) shall be
apportioned the lesser of (A) that number of Additional New Securities that it
elected to purchase in its Second Notice and which it has not yet been
apportioned pursuant to this Section 3.2(a); or (B) its Pro Rata Portion of the
Additional New Securities (as defined below);

             (b) If the apportionment in Section 3.2(a) is followed and there
remain (A) at least one Oversubscribing Holder who has not yet been apportioned
the number of Additional New Securities it elected to purchase in its Second
Notice and (B) any Additional New Securities, then the procedure described in
Section 3.2(a) shall be repeated; and

             (c) For purposes of this Section 3.2, an "Oversubscribing Holder"
means a Fully Participating Holder who has given a Second Notice and who has not
yet been apportioned pursuant to Section 3.2(a) that number of Additional New
Securities that it elected to purchase in its Second Notice, and an
Oversubscribing Holder's "Pro Rata Portion of Additional New Securities" shall
be equal to the number of Additional New Securities multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock held by such
Holder as of the date of the Company Notice, and the denominator of which is the
total number of shares of Common Stock held by all Oversubscribing Holders as of
such date.

         3.3 Calculation of Number of Shares of Common Stock Held or
Outstanding. For purposes of any calculation of the number of shares of Common
Stock held or outstanding under this Section 3, and with respect to any
numerator or denominator provided herein, the conversion of all securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock and the exercise of all
outstanding options other than (i) options granted under this Section 3 and (ii)
options granted pursuant to the Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan shall be
assumed.

         3.4 "New Securities. " Except as set forth below, "New Securities"
shall mean any shares of capital stock or other equity securities (or debt
securities convertible into such equity securities) of the Company, whether now
authorized or not, and rights, options or warrants to purchase said shares of
capital stock and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become,
convertible into said shares of capital stock or other equity securities.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, "New Securities" shall not include:

             (a) securities issued upon conversion or exercise of the Preferred
Stock;

             (b) securities purchased or issued pursuant to the Series C
Purchase Agreement;

                                      -6-
<PAGE>   9

             (c) securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another
corporation by the Company by merger, purchase of all or substantially all of
the assets or other reorganization whereby the Company or its stockholders
immediately prior to such transaction continue to own more than fifty percent
(50%) of the voting power of the surviving or successor corporation;

             (d) securities issued pursuant to any rights or agreements,
including without limitation convertible securities, options and warrants,
provided that unless otherwise provided herein, the rights of first offer
established by this Section 3 shall apply with respect to the initial sale or
grant by the Company of such rights or agreements;

             (e) securities issued in connection with any stock split, stock
dividend or recapitalization by the Company;

             (f) securities issued to employees, consultants, officers or
directors of the Company pursuant to any stock option, stock purchase or stock
bonus plan, agreement or arrangement approved by the Board of Directors, but not
exceeding 3,650,000 shares of Common Stock (net of purchases of such shares or
cancellations or expirations of options);

             (g) securities issued to vendors or customers or to other persons
in similar commercial situations with the Company if such issuance is approved
by the Company's board of directors;

             (h) securities issued in connection with obtaining lease financing,
whether issued to a lessor, guarantor or other person; and

             (i) securities issued in a firm commitment underwritten public
offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act, covering the offer and sale of securities for the account of the Company
and/or selling stockholders to the public at such per share price and resulting
in such aggregate net proceeds to the Company and/or the selling stockholders
(after deducting underwriters' discounts and expenses relating to the issuance)
as would result in the automatic conversion of the Company's Preferred Stock
pursuant to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

         3.5 Notices With Respect to Proposed Issuance of New Securities. In the
event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall
give each Holder entitled to a right of first offer pursuant to this Section 3
written notice (the "Company Notice") of its intention, describing in detail the
type of New Securities and the price and terms upon which the Company proposes
to issue such New Securities. Each such Holder shall have twenty (20) days from
the date of receipt of any such Company Notice to agree to purchase, pursuant to
the exercise of the First Option, up to such Holder's Pro Rata Portion of such
New Securities for the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the
Company Notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the
quantity of New Securities to be purchased. If, following the expiration of such
twenty (20) day period, there exist Additional New Securities subject to the
Second Option, then the Company shall give each Fully Participating Holder a
second written notice (the "Second Company Notice") to such effect and each such
Holder shall then have fifteen (15) days from the date of

                                      -7-
<PAGE>   10

receipt of such Second Company Notice to agree to purchase (on the aforesaid
terms and conditions) the quantity of Additional New Securities stated therein,
subject to the application of the procedures set forth in Section 3.2.

         3.6 Company's Right to Complete Proposed Sale of New Securities to the
Extent Rights of First Offer are Not Exercised. In the event a Holder fails to
exercise a right of first offer with respect to any New Securities within the
periods specified in Section 3.5, the Company shall have sixty (60) days
thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of
such New Securities shall be closed, if at all, within thirty (30) days from the
date of said agreement) to sell the New Securities not elected to be purchased
by Holders at the price and upon terms no more favorable to the purchasers of
such securities than those specified in the Company Notice. In the event the
Company has not sold the New Securities or entered into an agreement to sell the
New Securities within said 60 day period (or sold and issued New Securities in
accordance with the foregoing within 30 days from the date of said agreement),
the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell such New Securities without first
offering such securities in the manner provided in this Section 3 above.

         3.7 Assignment of Right of First Offer. The right of first offer
granted under this Section 3 may be assigned to a transferee or assignee in
connection with any transfer or assignment of Registrable Securities by a
Holder, provided that (a) such transfer or assignment may otherwise be effected
in accordance with applicable securities laws and (b) such transferee or
assignee acquires at least 200,000 shares of Registrable Securities (as adjusted
for combinations, stock dividends and the like) upon consummation of such
transfer or assignment.

         3.8 Amendment of Right of First Offer. Notwithstanding the provisions
of Section 9.4 hereof, the written consent of (a) the Company and (b) Holders
holding more than sixty percent (60%) in interest of the Registrable Securities
which are issued or issuable in respect of Series A Preferred Stock of the
Company and (c) Holders holding more than sixty percent (60%) in interest of the
Registrable Securities which are issued or issuable in respect of Series B
Preferred Stock of the Company and (d) Holders holding more than sixty percent
(60%) in interest of the Registrable Securities which are issued or issuable in
respect of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company shall be required to amend
Section 3.4(f) hereof to increase the number of shares of Common Stock excluded
thereby from the definition of New Securities.

         4. Registration Rights.

         4.1 Requested Registration.

             (a) Request for Registration. In case the Company shall receive
from Initiating Holders a written request that the Company effect any
underwritten registration, qualification, or compliance with respect to
Registrable Securities held by such Initiating Holders, then the Company shall:

                 (i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration,
qualification, or compliance to all other Holders; and

                 (ii) as soon as practicable, use its most diligent efforts to
effect all such registration, qualification, or compliance (including, without
limitation, the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments,
appropriate qualification under applicable blue sky or other state securities
laws, and appropriate compliance with applicable regulations issued under the
Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations) as may be
so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all
or such portion of such Registrable Securities as are specified in such request,
together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any Holders
joining in such request as are specified in a written request received by the
Company, within 20 days after the date the Company mails such written notice;

         Provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to take any
action to effect any such registration, qualification, or compliance pursuant to
this Section 4.1:

             (A) In any jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to
execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration,
qualification, or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in
such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;

             (B) During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior
to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date one hundred
eighty (180) days immediately following the effective date of any registration
statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of
securities in a Rule 145 transaction or with respect to an employee benefit plan
or initiated by security holders); or

             (C) Unless the aggregate offering price thereof, net of
underwriting discounts and commissions, would be at least $5,000,000;

             (D) After the Company has effected two (2) such registrations
pursuant to this Section 4.1 which have been declared or ordered effective and
pursuant to which securities have been sold.

         Subject to the foregoing clauses (A) through (D), the Company shall
file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities so requested
to be registered as soon as practicable, and in any event within 120 days, after
receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that if the
Company shall furnish to such Holder a certificate signed by the president of
the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the board of directors of
the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its
stockholders for such registration statement to be filed on or before the date
filing would be required and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of
such registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer such
filing for a reasonable period not to exceed 120 days; provided, however, that
the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month
period.

             (b) Underwriting. The right of any Holder to registration pursuant
to this Section 4.1 shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in
such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable Securities in
the underwriting to the extent requested (unless

                                      -9-
<PAGE>   12

otherwise mutually agreed by a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders
and such Holder with respect to such participation and inclusion) to the extent
provided herein.

         The Company shall (together with all Holders selling Registrable
Securities) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the
managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by a majority in interest of
the Initiating Holders. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.1,
if the managing underwriter advises the Initiating Holders in writing that
marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be
underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders and the number of
shares of Registrable Securities and other securities that may be included in
the registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders thereof
in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective amounts of securities
entitled to inclusion (determined without regard to any requirement of a request
to be included in such registration) in such registration held by all such
Holders at the time of filing the registration statement. No Registrable
Securities or other securities excluded from the underwriting by reason of the
underwriter's marketing limitation shall be included in such registration. To
facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the
Company and the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any
Holder to the nearest 100 shares.

         If any Holder of Registrable Securities disapproves of the terms of the
underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to
the Company, the managing underwriter and the Initiating Holders. The
Registrable Securities and/or other securities so withdrawn shall also be
withdrawn from registration, and such Registrable Securities shall not be
transferred in a public distribution prior to 90 days after the effective date
of such registration, or such other shorter period of time as the underwriters
may require. If by the withdrawal of such Registrable Securities a greater
number of Registrable Securities held by other Holders may be included in such
registration (up to the maximum of any limitation imposed by the underwriters),
then the Company shall offer to all Holders who have included Registrable
Securities in the registration the right to include additional Registrable
Securities in the same proportion and manner used in determining the underwriter
limitation in this Section 4.1.

         If the managing underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable
Securities to be underwritten, the Company may include securities for its own
account or for the account of others in such registration if the managing
underwriter so agrees and if the number of Registrable Securities which would
otherwise have been included in such registration and underwriting will not
thereby be limited.

         4.2 Company Registration.

             (a) Notice of Registration. If at any time or from time to time,
the Company shall determine to register in an underwritten offering any of its
securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or
holders, other than (i) a registration relating solely to employee benefit
plans, or (ii) a registration relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction, or a
registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales, the
Company shall:

                 (i) promptly give to each Holder written notice thereof; and

                                      -10-
<PAGE>   13

                   (ii) include in such registration (and any related
qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting
involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request
by each Holder received by the Company within 20 days after the Company mails
such written notice, subject to the provisions below.

             (b) Underwriting. The right of any Holder to registration pursuant
to this Section 4.2 shall be conditioned upon the participation by such Holder
in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Registrable Securities of such
Holder in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing
to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with
the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such
underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the
managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.2, if the managing
underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation of the number
of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit the Registrable
Securities held by Holders to be included in such registration, but shall not
limit such Registrable Securities to fewer than 20% of the securities sold in
any offering; provided that in the Company's initial public offering the
managing underwriter may limit the Registrable Securities held by the Holders to
be included in such registration to fewer than 20% of the shares sold in the
offering. The Company shall so advise all Holders and the other holders
distributing their securities through such underwriting, and the number of
shares of Registrable Securities and other securities that may be included in
the registration and underwriting shall be allocated among all Holders and other
holders thereof in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective
amounts of securities entitled to inclusion (determined without regard to any
requirement of a request to be included in such registration) in such
registration held by all such Holders and other holders at the time of filing
the registration statement, provided that no such inclusion of Registrable
Securities and other securities by the underwriter may reduce the securities
being offered by the Company for its own account. To facilitate the allocation
of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company may round the
number of shares allocated to any Holder or holder to the nearest 100 shares. If
any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, he may elect to
withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing
underwriter. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall
be withdrawn from such registration, and shall not be transferred in a public
distribution prior to 180 days after the effective date of the registration
statement relating thereto or such other shorter period of time as the
underwriter may require.

             (c) Right to Terminate Registration. The Company shall have the
right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this
Section 4.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any
Holder has elected to include securities in such registration.

         4.3 Form S-3 Registration. After its initial public offering, the
Company shall use its best efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3 or
any comparable or successor form or forms. After the Company has qualified for
the use of Form S-3, in addition to the rights contained in the foregoing
provisions of this Section 4, the Holders of Registrable Securities shall have
the right to request registrations on Form S-3 (such requests shall be in
writing and shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be
disposed of and the intended methods of disposition of such

                                      -11-
<PAGE>   14

shares by such Holder or Holders). In case the Company shall receive from a
Holder or Holders a written request that the Company effect a registration on
Form S-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to Registrable
Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company shall:

             (a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and
any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and

             (b) as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all such
qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or
facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder's or
Holders' Registrable Securities as are specified in such request together with
all or such portion of the Registrable Securities or any other Holder of Holders
joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within 20
days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
qualification, or compliance pursuant to this Section 4.3: (i) if Form S-3 is
not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii) if the Company shall
furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the president of the Company
stating that in the good faith judgment of the board of directors of the
Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders
for such Form S-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the
Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration
statement for a period of not more than 120 days after receipt of the initiating
request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 4.3; provided, however, that
the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month
period; (iii) if the Company has, within the six-month period preceding the date
of such request, already effected a registration on Form S-3 for any Holders
pursuant to this Section 4.3 or already effected a total of four (4)
registrations on Form S-3 pursuant to this Section 4.3; (iv) if the anticipated
aggregate offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in such
registration, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, would be less than
$1,000,000; or (v) in any jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to
execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration,
qualification or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in
such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act.

         Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall effect such registration,
qualification, or compliance (including, without limitation, the execution of an
undertaking to file post-effective amendments, appropriate qualification under
applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance
with applicable regulations issued under the Securities Act and any other
governmental requirements or regulations) covering the Registrable Securities
and other securities so requested to be registered as soon as practicable after
receipt of the request or requests of the Holder. Registrations effected
pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall not be counted as demands for registration or
registrations effected pursuant to Sections 4.1 or 4.2.

         If the registration to be effected pursuant to this Section 4.3 is to
be an underwritten public offering, it shall be managed by an underwriter or
underwriters acceptable to Company selected by a majority in interest of the
Holders requesting registration. In such event, the right of any Holder to
registration pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be conditioned upon the participation
by such

                                      -12-
<PAGE>   15

Holder in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Registrable Securities of
such Holder in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. It the managing
underwriter so selected determines that marketing factors require a limitation
of the number of shares to be underwritten, the managing underwriter may limit
the Registrable Securities held by such Holders to be included in such
registration. The Company shall so advise such Holders, and the number of shares
of Registrable Securities that may be included in the registration shall be
allocated among such Holders in proportion to the respective amounts of
Registrable Securities which would be held by each of such Holders at the time
of filing of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities that are so
excluded from the underwriting shall be excluded from the registration. As used
throughout this Section the term "Form S-3" shall be deemed to include any
equivalent successor form for registration pursuant to the Act.

         4.4 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in
connection with the registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to
Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that
the Company shall not be required to pay for expenses of any registration
proceeding begun pursuant to Section 4.1, the request of which has been
subsequently withdrawn by the Initiating Holders, in which case such expenses
shall be borne by the Holders of securities (including Registrable Securities)
pro rata in accordance with the number of shares initially sought to be
registered requesting or causing such withdrawal. All Selling Expenses relating
to securities so registered shall be borne by the holders of such securities pro
rata on the basis of the number of shares of securities so registered on their
behalf.

         4.5 Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by
the provisions of this Section 4 to use its most diligent efforts to effect
promptly the registration of Registrable Securities, the Company shall:

             (a) Prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement
with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its most diligent efforts to
cause such registration statement to become and remain effective as provided
herein.

             (b) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and
current and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to
the sale of or other disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement, including such amendments and supplements as may be
necessary to reflect the intended method of disposition of the prospective
seller or sellers of such Registrable Securities, but for no longer than one
hundred eighty (180) days subsequent to the effective date of such registration
in the case of a registration statement on Form S-1 (or any similar form of
registration statement required to set forth substantially identical
information) and for no longer than one hundred twenty (120) days in the case of
a registration statement on Form S-3; provided, however, that (i) such period
shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains
from selling any securities included in such registration at the request of an
underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company; and (ii) in
the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 which are
intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed

                                      -13-
<PAGE>   16

basis, such period shall be extended, if necessary, to keep the registration
statement effective until all such Registrable Securities are sold, provided
that Rule 415 permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis, and provided
further that applicable rules under the Securities Act governing the obligation
to file a post-effective amendment permit, in lieu of filing a post-effective
amendment that (I) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act or (II) reflects facts or events representing a material or
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement,
the incorporation by reference of information required to be included in (I) and
(II) above to be contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act in the registration statement.

             (c) Furnish to each prospective seller of Registrable Securities
such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in
conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other
documents, as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities of such seller.

             (d) Notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event
as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as
then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading or incomplete in the light of the
circumstances then existing, and at the request of any such seller, prepare and
furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an
amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter
delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or
incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing.

             (e) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant
hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange or approved for quotation on
any inter-dealer quotation system on which similar securities issued by the
Company are then listed or quoted.

             (f) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable
Securities registered pursuant to such registration statement and a CUSIP number
of all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective
date of such registration.

             (g) Otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable
rules and regulations of the Commission, and make available to its security
holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the
period of at least twelve months, but not more than eighteen months, beginning
with the first month after the effective date of the registration statement,
which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
Securities Act.

             (h) In connection with any underwritten offering pursuant to a
registration statement filed pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof, the Company will
enter into an underwriting agreement reasonably necessary to effect the offer
and sale of Common Stock, provided such

                                      -14-
<PAGE>   17

underwriting agreement contains customary underwriting provisions and provided
further that if the underwriter so requests the underwriting agreement will
contain customary contribution provisions.

         4.6 Indemnification. In the event any of the Registrable Securities are
included in a registration statement under this Section 4:

             (a) The Company will indemnify each Holder, each of its officers
and directors and partners and such Holder's separate legal counsel and
independent accountants, and each person controlling such Holder within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act; and each underwriter, if any, and
each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in
settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based
on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact
contained, on the effective date thereof, in any registration statement, any
prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or based
on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of
a prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading, or any violation by the Company of any rule or regulation
promulgated under the Securities Act applicable to the Company in connection
with any such registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will
reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers and directors and partners and
such Holders' separate legal counsel and independent accountants and each person
controlling such Holder, each such underwriter and each person who controls any
such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss,
damage, liability or action, provided that the Company will not be liable in any
such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense
arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such
Holder or underwriter and stated to be specifically for use therein.

             (b) Each Holder, severally and not jointly, will, if Registrable
Securities held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such
registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the
Company, each of its directors and officers and its legal counsel and
independent accountants, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities
covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company
or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act; and
each other such Holder, each of its officers and directors and each person
controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act,
against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue
statement) of a material fact contained, on the effective date thereof, in any
such registration statement; any prospectus contained therein, or any omission
(or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a
prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such Holders, such directors,
officers, persons, underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other

                                      -15-
<PAGE>   18

expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any
such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but
only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or
omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement or
prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be
specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the obligations of such
Holders hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to
each such Holder of Registrable Securities sold as contemplated herein.

             (c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section (the
"Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide
indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party
has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall
permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any
litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying
Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be
approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be
withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such
party's expense, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party
to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of
its obligations under this Section 4.6 to the extent such failure is not
prejudicial. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or
litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to
entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or
litigation.

             (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is held by
a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with
respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to herein,
then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying the Indemnified Party,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party with
respect to such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense in the proportion that
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted
in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the
Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact or the omission
(or alleged omission) to state a material fact relates to information supplied
by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative
intent; knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.

         4.7 Information by Holder. The Holder or Holders of Registrable
Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such
information regarding such Holder or Holders and the distribution proposed by
such Holder or Holders as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as
shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or
compliance referred to in this Section.

                                      -16-
<PAGE>   19

         4.8 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of
certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the
sale of the Restricted Securities to the public without registration, after such
time as a public market exists for the Common Stock of the Company, the Company
shall use its best efforts to:

             (a) Make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, beginning 90 days
after (i) the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the
Company for an offering of its securities to the general public, (ii) the
Company registers a class of securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, or
(iii) the Company issues an offering circular meeting the requirements of
Regulation A under the Securities Act;

             (b) File with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and
other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting
requirements);

             (c) Furnish to any Holder promptly upon request a written statement
as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time
after 90 days after the effective date of the first registration statement filed
by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public), and of
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject
to such reporting requirements), a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the Company and
other information in the possession of or reasonably obtainable by the Company
as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation
of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without
registration.

         4.9 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company
to register securities granted under this Section 4 may be assigned to a
transferee or assignee in connection with the transfer or assignment of shares
of Registrable Securities only if (i) such shares represent at least 1% of the
outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock (assuming conversion of all
issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Shares to Common Stock) on the date
of such assignment, or (ii) the transfer of such shares occurs in a distribution
from a Purchaser which is a partnership to a partner thereof.

         4.10 Grant of Additional Registration Rights. The Company will not
grant registration rights which are superior to or on parity with the
registration rights granted under this Agreement without the written consent of
the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities.

         4.11 Amendment of Registration Rights. The registration rights provided
in this Section may be amended with the written consent of the Company and the
holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities. Any amendment effected in
accordance with this Section 4.11 shall be binding upon each Holder and the
Company.

                                      -17-
<PAGE>   20

      5. Right of Co-Sale and Prohibited Transfers.

         5.1 Right of Co-Sale. In the event that (x) the Preferred Holders do
not purchase pursuant to Section 2.3(a) all of the Restricted Founders Shares
which an Offeree Holder proposed to sell, assign or transfer, and (y) the
Purchase Offer will result in (1) the transfer of 25,000 or more shares of
Common Stock by such Offeree Holder or (2) the transferee of such shares holding
more than 50% of the Common Stock, each of the Preferred Holders shall have the
right, exercisable upon written notice to the Offeree Holder within 30 business
days after receipt of the Notice of the Purchase Offer, to participate in the
Offeree Holder's sale of Restricted Founders Shares pursuant to the specified
terms and conditions of such Purchase Offer. To the extent one or more of the
Preferred Holders exercise such right of participation, in accordance with the
terms and conditions hereof, the number of shares of Restricted Founders Shares
which the Offeree Holder may sell pursuant to such Purchase Offer shall be
correspondingly reduced. The right of participation of each of the Preferred
Holders shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

             (a) Each of the Preferred Holders may sell all or any part of that
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product obtained by multiplying
(1) the aggregate number of shares of Restricted Founders Shares covered by the
Purchase Offer by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares
of Common Stock at the time owned by such Preferred Holder computed in
accordance with Section 5.1(g) below) and the denominator of which is the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (computed in accordance with Section
5.1(g) below) at the time owned by the Common Holders and the Preferred Holders.

             (b) To the extent that any Preferred Holder fails to elect to fully
participate in such sale pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, the Offeree Holder
shall give written notice of such failure to the Preferred Holders who did so
elect (the "Participants") within five (5) days after such failure. The
Participants shall have five (5) days from the date such notice was given to
agree to sell their pro rata share of the unsold portion. For purposes of this
paragraph, a Participant's pro rata share shall be equal to the product obtained
by multiplying (1) the number of shares in the unsold portion by (2) a fraction
the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock held by such
Participant (computed in accordance with Section 5.1(g) below) and the
denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock held by the
Participants and the Offeree Holder (computed in accordance with Section 5.1(g)
below).

             (c) Each Participant shall effect its participation in the sale by
promptly delivering to the Offeree Holder for transfer to the prospective
purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, which
represent:

                 (i) the type and number of shares of Common Stock which such
Participant elects to sell; or

                 (ii) that number of convertible securities of the Company,
which is at such time convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock
which such Participant elects to sell; provided, however, that if the
prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of convertible securities of the
Company in lieu of Common Stock, such Participant shall convert such convertible
securities

                                      -18-
<PAGE>   21

into Common Stock and deliver Common Stock as provided in subparagraph (i)
above. The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with the actual
transfer of such shares to the purchaser.

             (d) The stock certificate or certificates that the Participant
delivers to the Offeree Holder pursuant to Section 5.1(c) above shall be
transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of
Restricted Founders Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the
Notice, and the Offeree Holder shall concurrently therewith remit to such
Participant that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Participant is
entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any
prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibits such assignment or otherwise
refuses to purchase shares or other securities from a Participant exercising its
right of co-sale hereunder, the Offeree Holder shall not sell to such
prospective purchaser or purchasers any Restricted Founders Shares unless and
until, simultaneously with such sale, the Offeree Holder shall purchase such
number of shares of Common Stock or other securities which each Participant
would have been able to sell under Section 5.1(a) from such Participant.

             (e) The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of the Participants
hereunder to participate in one or more sales of Restricted Founders Shares made
by the Offeree Holders shall not adversely affect their rights to participate in
subsequent sales of Restricted Founders Shares subject to this Section 5.1.

             (f) If none of the Preferred Holders elects to participate in the
sale of the Restricted Founders Shares subject to the Notice, the Offeree Holder
may, not later than sixty (60) days following delivery to the Company and each
of the Preferred Holders of the Notice, enter into an agreement providing for
the closing of the transfer of the Restricted Founders Shares covered by the
Notice within thirty (30) days of such agreement on terms and conditions not
more favorable than those described in the Notice. Any subsequent proposed
transfer of any of the Restricted Founders Shares by the Offeree Holder shall
again be subject to the co-sale rights of the Preferred Holders and shall
require compliance by the Offeree Holder with the procedures described in this
Section 5.1.

             (g) For purposes of any calculation of the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding under this Section 5.1, and with respect to any
numerator or denominator provided herein, the conversion of all securities
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock and the exercise of all
outstanding options (other than options granted pursuant to the Company's 1995
Stock Option Plan) and warrants shall be assumed.

         5.2 Prohibited Transfers.

             (a) In the event an Offeree Holder should sell any Restricted
Founders Shares in contravention of the co-sale rights of the Preferred Holders
under Section 5.1 of this Agreement (a "Prohibited Transfer"), each Preferred
Holder, in addition to such other remedies as may be available at law, in equity
or hereunder, shall have the put option provided below, and the Offeree Holder
shall be bound by the applicable provisions of such option.

<PAGE>   22

             (b) In the event of a Prohibited Transfer, each Preferred Holder
shall have the right to sell to the Offeree Holder the type and number of shares
of Common Stock equal to the number of shares each Preferred Holder would have
been entitled to transfer to the transferee had the Prohibited Transfer under
Section 5.1 hereof been effected pursuant to and in compliance with the terms
hereof. such sale shall be made on the following terms and conditions.

                 (i) The price per share at which the shares are to be sold to
the Offeree Holder shall be equal to the price per share paid by the transferee
to the Offeree Holder in the prohibited Transfer. The Offeree Holder shall also
reimburse each Preferred Holder for any and all fees and expenses, including
legal fees and expenses incurred pursuant to the exercise or the attempted
exercise of the Preferred Holder rights under Section 5.1

                 (ii) Within 90 days after the later of the dates on which the
Preferred Holder (A) receives notice of the prohibited Transfer or (B) otherwise
became aware of the Prohibited Transfer, each Preferred Holder shall, if
exercising the option created hereby, deliver to the Offeree Holder the
certificate or certificates representing share to be sold, each certificate to
be properly endorsed for transfer.

                 (iii) The Offeree Holder shall, upon receipt of the certificate
or certificates for the share to be sold by a Preferred Holder, pursuant to this
Section 5.2(b), pay the aggregate purchase price therefor and the amount of
reimbursable fees and expenses, as specified in Section 5.2(b)(i), in cash or by
other means acceptable to the Preferred Holder.

                 (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any attempt by an Offeree
Holder to transfer Restricted Founders Shares in violation of Section 5.1 hereof
shall be void and the Company will not effect such a transfer nor will it treat
any alleged transferee as the holder of such shares without written consent of a
majority in interest of the Preferred Holders.

         (THE "ACT"), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAW OF ANY STATE OR OTHER
         JURISDICTION. THESE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND
         NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE DISTRIBUTION THEREOF.
         THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, OR TRANSFERRED
         UNLESS A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT IS IN EFFECT AS TO THESE

promptly certificates without the second legend set forth in Section 6.1(a) at
the request of any Holder thereof if the holder shall have obtained an opinion
of counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Company) reasonably acceptable

legend endorsed on an instrument pursuant to applicable state securities laws
and the stop-transfer instructions with respect to such securities shall be
removed upon receipt by the Company of an order of the appropriate blue sky
authority authorizing such removal.

the transfer being effected, the Holder or Common Holder shall provide to the
Company a written opinion of legal counsel who shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, addressed to the Company and reasonably satisfactory in form and
substance to the Company's counsel, to the effect that the proposed transfer of
the Restricted Securities may be effected without registration under the

necessary for a transfer by a holder which is (i) a partnership to its partners
or retired partners in accordance with partnership interests, or (ii) an
individual to a family member or trust for the benefit of such Holder, Common
Holder or a family member, provided the transferee will be subject to the terms
of this Section 6.3 to the same extent as if he were an original Holder or
Common Holder hereunder. Each certificate evidencing the Restricted Securities
so transferred shall bear the appropriate restrictive legends set forth in
Section 6.1, except that such certificate shall not bear the second restrictive
legend set forth in Section 6.1(a) if in the opinion of counsel for the Company
such legend is not required in order to establish compliance with any provisions
of the securities laws.

             (b) Each Holder and Common Holder consents to the Company making a

                            ALLOS THERAPEUTICS, INC.

                             1995 STOCK OPTION PLAN

                       (AS AMENDED EFFECTIVE MAY 7, 1997)

     1. Purposes of the Plan. The purposes of this Stock Option Plan are to
attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial
responsibility, to provide additional incentive to Employees and Consultants of
the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary and to promote the success of the
Company's business. Options granted under the Plan may be Incentive Stock
Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options, as determined by the Administrator at the
time of grant of an option and subject to the applicable provisions of Section
422 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

     2. Definitions. As used herein, the following definitions shall apply:

         (a) "Administrator" means the Board or any of its Committees appointed
pursuant to Section 4 of the Plan.

         (b) "Board" means the Board of Directors of the Company.

         (c) "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

         (d) "Committee" means a Committee appointed by the Board of Directors
in accordance with Section 4 of the Plan.

         (e) "Common Stock" means the Common Stock of the Company.

         (f) "Company" means Allos Therapeutics, Inc.

         (g) "Consultant" means any person who is engaged by the Company or any
Parent or Subsidiary to render consulting or advisory services and is
compensated for such services, and any director of the Company whether
compensated for such services or not. If and in the event the Company registers
any class of any equity security pursuant to the Exchange Act, the term
Consultant shall thereafter not include directors who are not compensated for
their services or are paid only a director's fee by the Company.

         (h) "Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant" means that the
employment or consulting relationship with the Company, any Parent or Subsidiary
is not interrupted or terminated. Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant
shall not be considered interrupted in the case of (i) any leave of absence
approved by the Company or (ii) transfers between locations of the Company or
between the Company, its Parent, any Subsidiary, or any successor. A leave of
absence approved by the Company shall include sick leave, military leave, or any
other personal leave. For purposes of Incentive Stock Options, no such leave may
exceed 90 days, unless reemployment upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed
by statute or contract, including Company policies. If

<PAGE>   2

reemployment upon expiration of a leave of absence approved by the Company is
not so guaranteed, on the 181st day of such leave any Incentive Stock Option
held by the Optionee shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and
shall be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option.

         (i) "Disability" means total and permanent disability as defined in
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code.

         (j) "Employee" means any person, including officers and directors,
employed by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. The payment
of a director's fee by the Company shall not be sufficient to constitute
"employment" by the Company.

         (k) "Exchange Act" means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.

         (1) "Fair Market Value" means, as of any date, the value of Common
Stock determined as follows:

               (i) If the Common Stock is listed on any established stock
exchange or a national market system, including without limitation the Nasdaq
National Market of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Automated Quotation ("Nasdaq") System, its Fair Market Value shall be the
closing sales price for such stock (or the closing bid, if no sales were
reported) as quoted on such exchange or system for the last market trading day
prior to the time of determination, as reported in The Wall Street Journal or
such other source as the Administrator deems reliable;

               (ii) If the Common Stock is quoted on the Nasdaq System (but not
on the National Market System thereof) or regularly quoted by a recognized
securities dealer but selling prices are not reported, its Fair Market Value
shall be the mean between the high bid and low asked prices for the Common Stock
on the last market trading day prior to the day of determination; or

               (iii) In the absence of an established market for the Common
Stock, the Fair Market Value shall be determined in good faith by the
Administrator.

         (m) "Incentive Stock Option" means an Option intended to qualify as an
incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code.

         (n) "Nonstatutory Stock Option" means an Option not intended to qualify
as an Incentive Stock Option.

         (o) "Option" means a stock option granted pursuant to the Plan.

         (p) "Optioned Stock" means the Common Stock subject to an Option.

                                       -2-
<PAGE>   3

         (q) "Optionee" means an Employee or Consultant who receives an Option.

         (r) "Parent" means a "parent corporation," whether now or hereafter
existing, as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code.

         (s) "Plan" means this 1995 Stock Option Plan.

         (t) "Section 16(b)" means Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended.

         (u) "Share" means a share of the Common Stock, as adjusted in
accordance with Section 11 below.

         (v) "Subsidiary" means a "subsidiary corporation," whether now or
hereafter existing, as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code.

     3. Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to the provisions of Section 11 of
the Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be optioned and sold
under the Plan is 2,250,000 Shares. The Shares may be authorized, but unissued,
or reacquired Common Stock.

         If an Option expires or becomes unexercisable without having been
exercised in full, or is surrendered pursuant to an Option Exchange Program, the
unpurchased Shares which were subject thereto shall become available for future
grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated); provided,
however, that Shares that have actually been issued under the Plan shall not be
returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future distribution
under the Plan, except that if unvested Shares are repurchased by the Company at
their original purchase price, and the original purchaser of such Shares did not
receive any benefits of ownership of such Shares, such Shares shall become
available for future grant under the Plan. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, voting rights shall not be considered a benefit of Share ownership.

     4. Administration of the Plan.

         (a) Initial Plan Procedure. Prior to the date, if any, upon which the
Company becomes subject to the Exchange Act, the Plan shall be administered by
the Board or a committee appointed by the Board.

         (b) Plan Procedure after the Date, if any, upon Which the Company
becomes Subject to the Exchange Act.

               (i) Administration With Respect to Directors and Officers Subject
to Section 16(b). With respect to Option grants made to Employees who are also
Officers or Directors subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Plan
shall be administered by (A) the Board, if the Board may administer the Plan in
a manner complying with the rules under Rule 16b-3 relating to the

                                       -3-
<PAGE>   4

disinterested administration of employee benefit plans under which Section 16(b)
exempt discretionary grants and awards of equity securities are to be made, or
(B) a committee designated by the Board to administer the Plan, which committee
shall be constituted to comply with the rules under Rule 16b-3 relating to the
disinterested administration of employee benefit plans under which Section 16(b)
exempt discretionary grants and awards of equity securities are to be made. Once
appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity
until otherwise directed by the Board. From time to time the Board may increase
the size of the Committee and appoint additional members, remove members (with
or without cause) and substitute new members, fill vacancies (however caused),
and remove all members of the Committee and thereafter directly administer the
Plan, all to the extent permitted by the rules under Rule 16b-3 relating to
the disinterested administration of employee benefit plans under which Section
16(b) exempt discretionary grants and awards of equity securities are to be
made.

               (ii) Administration With Respect to Other Persons. With respect
to Option grants made to Employees or Consultants who are neither Directors nor
Officers of the Company, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B)
a committee designated by the Board, which committee shall be constituted to
satisfy the legal requirements, if any, relating to the administration of
incentive stock option plans of state corporate and securities laws, of the
Code, and of any stock exchange or national market system upon which the Common
Stock is then listed or traded (the "Applicable Laws"). Once appointed, such
Committee shall serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the
Board. The Board may increase the size of the Committee and appoint additional
members, remove members (with or without cause) and substitute new members, fill
vacancies (however caused), and remove all members of the Committee and
thereafter directly administer the Plan, all to the extent permitted by
Applicable Laws.

         (c) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan
and, in the case of a Committee, the specific duties delegated by the Board to
such Committee, and subject to the approval of any relevant authorities,
including the approval, if required, of any stock exchange or national market
system upon which the Common Stock is then listed, the Administrator shall have
the authority, in its discretion:

               (i) to determine the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, in
accordance with Section 2(l) of the Plan;

               (ii) to select the Consultants and Employees to whom Options may
from time to time be granted hereunder;

               (iii) to determine whether and to what extent Options are granted
hereunder;

               (iv) to determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be
covered by each such award granted hereunder;

               (v) to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;

               (vi) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with
the terms of the Plan, of any award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions
may include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when
Options may be exercised, any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture
restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Option or the
Shares relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the
Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;

               (vii) to determine whether and under what circumstances an Option
may be settled in cash under Section 9(e) instead of Common Stock;

               (viii) to reduce the exercise price of any Option to the then
current Fair Market Value if the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock covered
by such Option has declined since the date the Option was granted;

               (ix) to provide for the early exercise of Options for the
purchase of unvested Shares, subject to such terms and conditions as the
Administrator may determine; and

               (x) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards
granted pursuant to the Plan.

         (d) Effect of Administrator's Decision. All decisions, determinations
and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and binding on all
Optionees and any other holders of any Options.

     5. Eligibility.

         (a) Nonstatutory Stock Options may be granted to Employees and
Consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. An
Employee or Consultant who has been granted an Option may, if otherwise
eligible, be granted additional Options.

         (b) Each Option shall be designated in the written option agreement as
either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However,
notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market
Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are
exercisable for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year (under
all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such
Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options.

         (c) For purposes of Section 5(b), Incentive Stock Options shall be
taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market
Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect
to such Shares is granted.

         (d) The Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee any right with respect
to the continuation of the Optionee's employment or consulting relationship with
the Company, nor shall it

                                       -5-
<PAGE>   6

interfere in any way with the Optionee's right or the Company's right to
terminate the Optionee's employment or consulting relationship at any time, with
or without cause.

     6. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur
of its adoption by the Board of Directors or its approval by the shareholders of
the Company, as described in Section 17 of the Plan. It shall continue in effect
for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated under Section 13 of the
Plan.

     7. Term of Option. The term of each Option shall be the term stated in the
Option Agreement; provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten
(10) years from the date of grant thereof. However, in the case of an Incentive
Stock Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns
stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the
Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter
term as may be provided in the Option Agreement.

     8. Option Exercise Price and Consideration.

         (a) The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant
to exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Board, but
shall be subject to the following:

               (i) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option

         (A) granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant of such
Incentive Stock Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of
the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair
Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

         (B) granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in the
preceding paragraph, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of
the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

               (ii) In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per share
exercise price shall be determined by the Administrator.

         (b) The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon
exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by
the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be
determined at the time of grant) and may consist entirely of (1) cash, (2)
check, (3) promissory note, (4) other Shares which (x) in the case of Shares
acquired upon exercise of an Option have been owned by the Optionee for more
than six months on the date of surrender and (y) have a Fair Market Value on the
date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to
which such Option shall be exercised, (5) delivery of a properly executed
exercise notice together with such other documentation as the Administrator and
the

                                       -6-
<PAGE>   7

broker, if applicable, shall require to effect an exercise of the Option and
delivery to the Company of the sale or loan proceeds required to pay the
exercise price, or (6) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. In
making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the
Administrator shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be
reasonably expected to benefit the Company.

     9. Exercise of Option.

         (a) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. Any Option granted
hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as
determined by the Administrator, including performance criteria with respect to
the Company and/or the Optionee, and as shall be permissible under the terms of
the Plan.

               An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

               An Option shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of
such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the
Option by the person entitled to exercise the Option and full payment for the
Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised has been received by the
Company. Full payment may, as authorized by the Administrator, consist of any
consideration and method of payment allowable under Section 8(b) of the Plan.
Until the issuance (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the
Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) of the stock
certificate evidencing such Shares, no right to vote or receive dividends or any
other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock,
notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to
be issued) such stock certificate promptly upon exercise of the Option. No
adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date
is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in
Section 11 of the Plan.

               Exercise of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease in
the number of Shares which thereafter may be available, both for purposes of the
Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the
Option is exercised.

         (b) Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship. Upon
termination of an Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant,
other than upon the Optionee's death or Disability, the Optionee may exercise
his or her Option, but only within such period of time as is specified in the
Notice of Grant, and only to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to
exercise it at the date of termination (but in no event later than the
expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Notice of Grant). In
the absence of a specified time in the Notice of Grant, the Option shall remain
exercisable for three (3) months following the Optionee's termination. In the
case of an Incentive Stock Option, such period of time for exercise shall not
exceed three (3) months from the date of termination. If, on the date of
termination, the Optionee is not entitled to exercise the Optionee's entire
Option, the Shares covered by the unexercisable portion of the Option shall
revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his or
her Option within the time

                                       -7-
<PAGE>   8

specified by the Administrator, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares
covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

         Notwithstanding the above, in the event of an Optionee's change in
status from Consultant to Employee or Employee to Consultant, an Optionee's
Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant shall not automatically terminate
solely as a result of such change in status. However, in such event, an
Incentive Stock Option held by the Optionee shall cease to be treated as an
Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory
Stock Option three months and one day following such change of status.

         (c) Disability of Optionee. In the event of termination of an
Optionee's Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant as a result of his or
her Disability, the Optionee may, but only within twelve (12) months from the
date of such termination (and in no event later than the expiration date of the
term of his or her Option as set forth in the Option Agreement), exercise the
Option to the extent the Optionee was otherwise entitled to exercise it on the
date of such termination. To the extent that the Optionee is not entitled to
exercise the Option on the date of termination, or if the Optionee does not
exercise the Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified herein,
the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by the Option shall revert to
the Plan.

         (d) Death of Optionee. In the event of the death of an Optionee, the
Option may be exercised at any time within twelve (12) months following the date
of death (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option
as set forth in the Notice of Grant), by the Optionee's estate or by a person
who has acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but
only to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at the
date of death. If, at the time of death, the Optionee was not entitled to
exercise his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unexercisable
portion of the Option shall immediately revert to the Plan. If, after death the
Optionee's estate or a person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by
bequest or inheritance does not exercise the Option within the time specified
herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall
revert to the Plan.

         (e) Buyout Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buy
out for a payment in cash or Shares, an Option previously granted, based on such
terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the
Optionee at the time that such offer is made.

         (f) Rule 16b-3. Options granted to persons subject to Section 16(b) of
the Exchange Act must comply with Rule 16b-3 and shall contain such additional
conditions or restrictions as may be required thereunder to qualify for the
maximum exemption from Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to Plan
transactions.

     10. Non-Transferability of Options. Options may not be sold, pledged,
assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by
will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the
lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee.

                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9

     11. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization or Merger.

         (a) Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the
shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by
each outstanding Option, and the number of shares of Common Stock which have
been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Options have yet
been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or
expiration of an Option, as well as the price per share of Common Stock covered
by each such outstanding Option, shall be proportionately adjusted for any
increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting
from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or
reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the
number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of
consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any
convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been "effected
without receipt of consideration." Such adjustment shall be made by the Board,
whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.
Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of
stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class,
shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to,
the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option.

         (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each
Optionee as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed
transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for an Optionee to
have the right to exercise his or her Option until ten (10) days prior to such
transaction as to all of the Optioned Stock covered thereby, including Shares as
to which the Option would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the
Administrator may provide that any Company repurchase option applicable to any
Shares purchased upon exercise of an Option shall lapse as to all such Shares,
provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in
the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an
Option will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed
action.

         (c) Merger or Asset Sale. In the event of a merger of the Company with
or into another corporation, or the sale of substantially all of the assets of
the Company:

               (i) Options. Each Option may be assumed or an equivalent option
substituted by such successor corporation (including as a "successor" any
purchaser of substantially all of the assets of the Company) or a parent or
subsidiary of such successor corporation. Alternatively, the Administrator in
its discretion may, as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such
transaction, provide for an Optionee to have the right to exercise an Option as
to all of the Optioned Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the
Option would not otherwise be exercisable. In such event the Administrator shall
notify the Optionee as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such
transaction that the Option shall be fully exercisable for a period of ten (10)
days from the date of such notice, and the Option shall terminate upon the
expiration of such period. For the purposes of this paragraph, an Option shall
be considered assumed if, following the merger, the option confers the right to
purchase or receive, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the

                                       -9-
<PAGE>   10

Option immediately prior to the merger, the consideration (whether stock, cash,
or other securities or property) received in the merger by holders of Common
Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if
holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen
by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares). If such consideration
received in the merger is not solely common stock of the successor corporation
or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor
corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of
the Option, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option, to be solely
common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market
value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the
merger.

               (ii) Shares Subject to Repurchase Option. Any Shares subject to a
repurchase option of the Company shall be exchanged for the consideration
(whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or
asset sale by the holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective
date of the transaction, as described in the preceding paragraph. If in such
exchange the Optionee receives shares of stock of the successor corporation or a
parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation, and if the successor
corporation has agreed to assume or substitute for Options as provided in the
preceding paragraph, such exchanged shares shall continue to be subject to a
repurchase option as provided in the Optionee's restricted stock purchase
agreement. If, as provided in the preceding paragraph, the Optionee shall have
the right to exercise an Option as to all of the Optioned Stock covered thereby,
all Shares that are subject to a repurchase option of the Company shall be
released from such repurchase option and shall be fully vested.

     12. Time of Granting Options. The date of grant of an Option shall, for all
purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination
granting such Option, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator.
Notice of the determination shall be given to each Employee or Consultant to
whom an Option is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such
grant.

     13. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

         (a) Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter,
suspend or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration, suspension or
discontinuation shall be made which would impair the rights of any Optionee
under any grant theretofore made, without his or her consent. In addition, to
the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange
Act or with Section 422 of the Code (or any other applicable law or regulation,
including the requirements of any stock exchange or national market system upon
which the Common Stock is then listed), the Company shall obtain shareholder
approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as
required.

         (b) Effect of Amendment or Termination. Any such amendment or
termination of the Plan shall not affect Options already granted, and such
Options shall remain in full force and effect as if this Plan had not been
amended or terminated, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Optionee and
the Board, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Optionee and the
Company.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

     14. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Shares shall not be issued pursuant
to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option and the issuance
and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant
provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
and the requirements of any stock exchange or national market system upon which
the Common Stock is then listed or traded, and shall be further subject to the
approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

         As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Company may require
the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time of any
such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the
opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required by any of
the aforementioned relevant provisions of law.

     15. Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, shall
at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be
sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

         The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory
body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to
be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall
relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell
such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

     16. Agreements. Options shall be evidenced by written agreements in such
form as the Administrator shall approve from time to time.

     17. Shareholder Approval. Continuance of the Plan shall be subject to
approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or
after the date the Plan is adopted. Such shareholder approval shall be obtained
in the degree and manner required under applicable state and federal law and the
rules of any stock exchange or national market system upon which the Common
Stock is then listed or traded.
