                                    AGREEMENT

This Agreement (AGREEMENT) is entered into as of October 18 2001 (EFFECTIVE
DATE) between NeoGenesis Drug Discovery, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(NEOGENESIS), and Immusol Incorporated (IMMUSOL), a California corporation.

                                   BACKGROUND

Immusol is interested in identifying potential pharmaceutical products for the
treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and wishes to identify compounds
that exhibit a high degree of chemical binding and functional activity to
specific protein targets involved in HIV. NeoGenesis has certain technology and
know-how, including screening processes and libraries of mass-encoded small
molecule compounds, relating to the identification, discovery, validation and
optimization of novel compounds which may be useful for development of novel
therapeutics employing targets implicated in a disease process. The parties wish
to pursue a collaborative screening process to identify compounds exhibiting a
high degree of chemical binding activity to targets designated by Immusol from
among the NeoGenesis libraries of mass-encoded small molecule compounds and
which have activity in bioassays or functional assays. The terms and conditions
set forth below shall govern the performance of such collaborative effort.

Compound (a DISCONTINUED COMPOUND) may only be subsequently initiated by a party
by notifying the other party of its interest in initiating Pre-Clinical
Development of such Discontinued Compound at any time on or before the date of
termination or expiration of this Agreement. If a party provides such notice and
the other party indicates it is not interested in participating in, and
committing resources to, conduct Pre-Clinical Development of such Discontinued
Compound, the initiating party, upon notice to the other party, may proceed with
Pre-Clinical Development and Development of such Discontinued Compound as an
Independent Compound or an Independent Product and the initiating party shall be
deemed to be the Independent Party therefor, as provided in Section 3.15. If the
other party indicates it is interested in participating in and committing
resources to conduct Pre-Clinical Development of such Discontinued Compound,
such Discontinued Compound shall be designated as a Designated Shared Compound
as set forth in Section 3.2(a). At any time after the date of termination or
expiration of this Agreement, either party may, upon written notice to the
other party, proceed with Pre-Clinical Development and Development of a
Discontinued Compound as an Independent Compound or an Independent Product, and
such party shall be deemed to be the Independent Party therefor, as provided in
Section 3.15.

3.4  NON-PROPOSED COMPOUNDS. If a Selected Shared Compound is not, at any time,
presented to the Steering Committee pursuant to Section 3.1 (a NON-PROPOSED
COMPOUND), such Selected Shared Compound shall be neither a Designated Shared

indicate whether it also is interested in participating in and committing
resources to conduct Pre-Clinical Development of such Non-Proposed Compound. If
the other party is so interested, such Non-Proposed Compound shall be designated
a Designated Shared Compound as set forth in Section 3.2(a). If the other party
is not so interested, the Non-Proposed Compound Interested Party may proceed
with Pre-Clinical Development and Development of such Non-Proposed Compound as
an Independent Compound or an Independent Product and the Non-Proposed Compound
Interested Party shall be deemed to be the Independent Party therefor, as
provided in Section 3.15. At any time after the date of termination or
expiration of this Agreement, either party may, upon written notice to the
other party, proceed with Pre-Clinical Development and Development of a
Non-Proposed Compound as an Independent Compound or an Independent Product, and
such party shall be deemed to be the Independent Party therefor, as provided in
Section 3.15.

3.5  PRE-CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT OF DESIGNATED SHARED COMPOUNDS. The parties, under
the direction of the Steering Committee, shall diligently conduct Pre-Clinical
Development with respect to any Designated Shared Compound in accordance with

behalf of either party without the prior approval of the Steering Committee.
Nothing contained in this Section 3.6 shall be deemed to preclude either party
from terminating its participation in the collaborative Development of a Shared
Product pursuant to Section 3.14. Any decision by a party not to participate in
Development of a Shared Product pursuant to Section 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 or to
terminate participation in the Development of a Shared Product pursuant to
Section 3.14, shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement. The parties will
conduct Pre-Clinical Development, Development, Manufacturing and
Commercialization activities in a manner calculated to minimize aggregate
Development Costs for such Shared Compound and Shared Product consistent with
the Development Plan and the Development Budget for such Shared Compound and
Shared Product.

3.7  DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND DEVELOPMENT BUDGET. Promptly following acceptance of a
Designated Shared Compound, the Steering Committee, which, for this purpose and
for the purposes set forth in Sections 3.8-3.10 and 3.23, shall also include an
equal number of financial personnel from each party, shall initiate preparation
of the development plan for the Pre-Clinical Development and Development of such
Designated Shared Compound and Development of any resulting Shared Product (the
DEVELOPMENT PLAN) and a budget (the DEVELOPMENT BUDGET) for proposed Development
Costs therefor. The initial Development Plan for a Designated Shared Compound
shall set time lines and priorities for the various Pre-Clinical Development and
Development activities through Phase I Clinical Trials or Phase IIa Clinical
Trials and identify which party, or whether a third party, is to be responsible
for each activity. The Development Budget shall include a detailed short-term
budget covering all proposed Development Costs of the Development Plan expected
during the initial two (2) years of implementation of the Development Plan. Each
Development Plan and Development Budget shall be approved by the Steering
Committee unanimously. Both parties recognize that the Development Plan and the
Development Budget represent projections only and will be subject to frequent
changes during the Pre-Clinical Development and Development process. Each such
Development Plan and Development Budget shall be updated as deemed appropriate
by the Steering Committee, but in no event less frequently than semi-annually,
and approved, unanimously, by the Steering Committee not later than thirty (30)
days prior to each January 1 and July 1 of each applicable calendar year.

3.8  FUNDING OF PRE-CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT AND DEVELOPMENT. Immusol and NeoGenesis
shall each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of the Development Costs for
each Designated Shared Compound, Derivative Compound thereof and resulting
Shared Product throughout the Territory. In the event the Development Costs
incurred by a party during any calendar quarter exceed [*] of the Development
Costs set forth in the most recently approved Development Budget for activities
to be conducted by such party during such quarter (the OVERAGE THRESHOLD), then
the other party shall not be responsible for paying its fifty percent (50%)
share of any Development Costs in excess of the Overage Threshold incurred by
the party triggering such overage unless such overage had been approved in
advance, or is subsequently ratified, unanimously, by the Steering Committee (in
which case each of the parties shall be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of
all such Development Costs). In the event such overage has not been approved or
ratified unanimously by the Steering Committee, the party incurring Development
Costs in a calendar quarter exceeding the Overage Threshold in such quarter
shall be responsible for all of the portion of the Development Costs in excess
of the Overage Threshold.

3.9  FTE RATE. In preparing the Development Budget and determining Development
Costs, each party will use an FTE rate for such party's development personnel
mutually agreed to by the parties based on the then prevailing FTE rate for such
party.

3.10  PAYMENT OF DEVELOPMENT COSTS. Within thirty (30) days after each calendar
quarter, each party shall provide the Steering Committee with detailed
information concerning the Development Costs incurred by such party during such
quarter pursuant to the Development Plan and the Development Budget. Promptly
after receipt thereof, the Steering Committee will determine the amount, if any,
that either party has paid in excess of the amount to be borne by such party for
such quarter pursuant to Section 3.8, and shall so notify the parties. In the
event of an overpayment by a party of its share of Development Costs in a
particular calendar quarter, the other party shall pay to the party making the
overpayment the amount by which such other party underpaid within thirty (30)
days after the underpaying party's receipt of notice from the Steering Committee
that an overpayment has occurred.

3.11  REGULATORY APPROVALS. Consistent with the Development Plan and Development
Budget and as directed by the Steering Committee, the parties (or their
Affiliates) will (a) prepare and file all documents that are necessary to
conduct clinical studies of Shared Products in connection with the

Development Plan and (b) use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to file
applications for Regulatory Approvals required before commercial sale or use of
a Shared Product as a drug in a country within the Territory and obtain
Regulatory Approvals in each country in the Territory in which the parties,
either individually or jointly, intend to Commercialize Shared Products in
accordance with the Development Plan. The Steering Committee will be responsible
for designating a party by unanimous agreement to be responsible for filing all
regulatory submissions in each country in the Territory in which Shared Products
will be Commercialized. The party not responsible for filing regulatory
submissions for a Shared Product in a country pursuant to this Agreement shall
have a right to cross-reference to all such filings made by the other party for
such Shared Product in any country. The parties will cooperate in the
preparation of all such regulatory filings and in obtaining Regulatory Approvals
under this Section 3.11, including without limitation providing access to each
party's data and information obtained under the Program and the Development Plan
to the extent necessary for obtaining Regulatory Approvals of Shared Products.

3.12  LINE EXTENSIONS. NeoGenesis and Immusol may each prepare and submit to the
Steering Committee for consideration plans for Development of Shared Product
line extensions and the conduct of clinical trials covering indications other
than those for which Shared Products are then being Developed or Commercialized
in the Territory. Any such line extensions or any additional clinical trials for
additional indications will be subject to the approval and supervision of the
Steering Committee as part of the ongoing Development of such Shared Product.

3.13  THIRD PARTY TECHNOLOGY; CONSENTS TO CERTAIN SUBLICENSES. If either party
becomes aware of (a) an opportunity to participate in research with a third
party that could advance the Pre-Clinical Development of a Designated Shared
Compound or Derivative Compound thereof or the Development of a Shared Product;
or (b) an opportunity to obtain a license or other right owned or controlled by
a third party relating to the Manufacture, marketing, import, use or sale of a
Shared Product, it shall so notify the other party and the Steering Committee
will determine whether to pursue such opportunity. In the event that the parties
pursue such opportunity under Section 3.13(a), they shall grant appropriate
licenses or sublicenses, as applicable, to such third party solely to perform
the tasks designated and approved by the Steering Committee for such third party
and provide for confidentiality and non-use obligations, and for ownership of or
licenses under such third party's inventions and related intellectual property
rights arising in the course of work performed by such third party

pursuant to this Agreement consistent with those provided in the applicable
provisions of this Agreement. If the parties, in connection with any opportunity
described in subsection (a) or (b), incur obligations to make payments to a
third party, such payments shall be included in the calculation of Expenses or
Development Costs, as the case may be, of the party making such payment. Neither
party shall enter into any sublicense under which such party shall receive any
consideration from the relevant sublicensee in the form of an equity investment
in, or as a loan to, such party without the other party's prior written consent,
not to be unreasonably withheld.

3.14  TERMINATION OF PARTICIPATION IN COLLABORATIVE DEVELOPMENT. (a) Either
party may elect, on a Designated Shared Compound-by-Designated Shared Compound,
Derivative Compound thereof-by-Derivative Compound thereof or Shared
Product-by-Shared Product basis, as the case may be, to terminate its
participation in, or to not participate in, the Pre-Clinical Development of a
given Designated Shared Compound or Derivative Compound thereof or Development
of a given Shared Product based upon or incorporating such Designated Shared
Compound or Derivative Compound thereof by written notice to the other party:
(i) at any time prior to expiration of the forty five (45) day period following
such party's receipt of final copies of all material documents to be filed with
the FDA or equivalent Regulatory Authority as part of an IND submission for such
Designated Shared Compound or Derivative Compound thereof, (ii) during the
period commencing upon receipt by such party of final reports covering all
aspects of completed Phase I Clinical Trials for such Shared Product and ending
forty five (45) days thereafter; or (iii) during the period commencing upon
receipt by such party of final reports covering all aspects of completed Phase
II Clinical Trials for such Shared Product and ending forty five (45) days
thereafter. After receipt of such notice by the other party in accordance with
this Section 3.14, the party providing such notice shall no longer be
responsible for bearing further Development Costs for such Designated Shared
Compound or Derivative Compound thereof or Shared Product pursuant to Section
3.8 (except as set forth in the next succeeding sentence), in which event the
other party will have the right to proceed independently to Develop such
Designated Shared Compound or Derivative Compound thereof or Shared Product as
an Independent Compound or Independent Product, and the party continuing such
Development shall thereafter be deemed to be the Independent Party therefor, as
provided in Section 3.15. In the event a party gives notice under this Section
3.14, such non-Independent Party (i) will remain responsible for its share of
Development Costs for such Designated Shared

*=CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED: MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED

Compound or Derivative Compound thereof or Shared Product until ninety (90) days
from the date the other party receives such notice, and (ii) will make its
personnel, relevant data and other resources available to the Independent Party
as necessary to effect an orderly transition of Pre-Clinical Development and
Development responsibilities, with the costs of such personnel, relevant data
and resources to be borne by the Independent Party after it receives a notice
under this Section 3.14. In the event of a party's termination of participation
in Pre-Clinical Development or Development of a Designated Shared Compound or
Derivative Compound thereof or Shared Product in accordance with this Section
3.14, such party shall transfer and assign to the Independent Party all
Regulatory Approval submissions, including all applications relating to such
Designated Shared Compound, Derivative Compound thereof and/or Shared Products
based upon or incorporating such Designated Shared Compound or Derivative
Compound thereof, together with all materials and data related thereto in its
possession.

     (b) If, at any time during Pre-Clinical Development or Development
activities, both parties elect, on a Designated Shared Compound-by-Designated
Shared Compound basis, Derivative Compound thereof-by-Derivative Compound
thereof basis or a Shared Product-by-Shared Product basis, as the case may be,
to terminate Pre-Clinical Development of a Designated Shared Compound or
Derivative Compound thereof or to terminate Development of a Shared Product, the
parties shall confer and mutually agree on a plan for seeking a purchaser or
licensee for the Designated Shared Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or
Shared Product, as applicable.

3.15 INDEPENDENT DEVELOPMENT. (a) In the event (i) a party, pursuant to
Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 or 3.14, elects not to, or does not, participate in and
commit resources to the pre-clinical development of a Selected Shared Compound
as a Designated Shared Compound, or the pre-clinical development of a
Discontinued Compound or a Non-Proposed Compound, or (ii) any party unilaterally
terminates its participation in the Pre-Clinical Development or Development of a
Designated Shared Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Shared Product
pursuant to Section 3.14, then the party that either made an affirmative
election to conduct such Pre-Clinical Development of such Selected Shared
Compound, or the Pre-Clinical Development of a Discontinued Compound or a
Non-Proposed Compound, or is continuing Pre-Clinical Development or Development
of a Designated Shared Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Shared Product
(in either case, the INDEPENDENT PARTY), shall have the right to

development of a Selected Shared Compound, Discontinued Compound or Non-Proposed
Compound or to continue Pre-Clinical Development and Development of such
Designated Shared Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Shared Product
independently as an INDEPENDENT COMPOUND or INDEPENDENT PRODUCT, at its sole
cost and in its sole direction. Subject to reinstatement pursuant to exercise of
its Re-Engagement Option set forth in Section 3.16, the non-Independent Party's
license under Section 4.1 shall be terminated with respect to such Independent
Compound or Independent Product. Neither party may charge the services of its
personnel or any third party to research or develop an Independent Compound,
Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product to the other party.

     (b) Until the earlier of the Re-Engagement Expiration Date or the date on
which the Independent Party receives a Re-Engagement Notice for an Independent
Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or an Independent Product from the
non-Independent Party, the Independent Party will (i) inform the other party of
all material information developed in its research and development of each
Independent Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product; and
(ii) provide the other party a copy of all proposed regulatory submissions
relating to such Independent Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or
Independent Product at least thirty (30) days prior to submitting such filing to
the applicable Regulatory Authority.

     (c) In the event either party elects to proceed as an Independent Party,
subject to Section 3.16, such Independent Party shall be entitled to develop
such Independent Compound or any Derivative Compound thereof and Commercialize
such Independent Product at its sole discretion, alone or with a third party
(subject to Section 3.15(d)), with no obligation to the other party other than
the payment of royalties in accordance with Sections 3.18 or 3.19 and those
obligations imposed under Sections 3.20 and 3.22.

     (d) The Independent Party may not sublicense any intellectual property
rights to the extent such right is necessary or useful to research, Develop,
have Developed, make, have made, use, distribute, promote, market, offer for
sale, sell, have sold, import and export an Independent Compound, Derivative
Compound thereof or Independent Product to any third party without the consent
of the non-Independent Party prior to the Re-Engagement Expiration Date for such
Independent Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product.

     (e) If either party terminates its research, Development or
Commercialization of an Independent Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or an
Independent Product, then (i) it shall promptly so notify the other party,
(ii) such compound shall no longer be an Independent Compound, Derivative
Compound thereof and such product shall no longer be an Independent Product;
(iii) the licenses granted to such Independent Party by the non-Independent
party for such compound or product shall terminate upon such other party's
receipt of such notice; and (iv) the parties will confer and mutually agree on a
plan for seeking a purchaser or licensee for such Independent Compound,
Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product, as applicable.

3.16 RE-ENGAGEMENT OPTION. (a) Either party may elect to resume its
participation in the Pre-Clinical Development or Development of an Independent
Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product throughout the
Territory by so notifying the Independent Party for such Independent Compound,
Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product (the RE-ENGAGEMENT NOTICE),
at any time prior to the expiration of the forty five (45) day period commencing
upon receipt by the non-Independent Party of the final report summarizing the
results of all Phase II Clinical Trials (RE-ENGAGEMENT EXPIRATION DATE) for such
Independent Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product. If a
party so elects to resume participation hereunder, such Independent Compound,
Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product shall immediately cease to be
an Independent Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product, as
applicable, and shall instead be designated a Designated Shared Compound or
Shared Product for all purposes under this Agreement, including but not limited
to calculating each party's responsibility for paying Development Costs and
Expenses and receiving the Share of Profit commencing upon and continuing after
the Independent Party's receipt of the Re-Engagement Notice.

         (b) If a party provides a Re-Engagement Notice pursuant to Section
3.16(a), then such party shall pay to the Independent Party [*] of the
non-Independent Party's share, based on the allocation set forth in Section 3.8,
of the costs of Pre-Clinical Development and Development of the Independent
Compound, Derivative Compound thereof or Independent Product incurred by the
Independent Party after the date upon which it commenced Pre-Clinical
Development or Development of such compound or product as an Independent
Compound or Independent Product and prior to the date of the Re-Engagement
Notice, calculated as if such Independent Compound or Derivative Compound
thereof had been a Designated Shared Compound or

such Independent Product had been a Shared Product during such period of
Pre-Clinical Development and Development by the Independent Party therefor (the
RE-ENGAGEMENT AMOUNT). In calculating such amounts, the parties will use the FTE
rate as set forth in Section 3.9. The non-Independent Party shall pay the
Re-Engagement Amount in four (4) equal quarterly installments beginning on the
first day of the calendar quarter following the date upon which the Independent
Party receives the relevant Re-Engagement Notice.

3.17 PROFITS AND LOSSES. Each party's SHARE OF PROFIT shall equal fifty percent
(50%) of all Shared Product Profits for all Shared Products sold in the
Territory, and each party's SHARE OF LOSS shall equal fifty percent (50%) of all
Shared Product Losses for all Shared Products sold in the Territory. Each party
shall be responsible for its Share of Loss and shall be entitled to receive its
Share of Profits. Each party shall also receive fifty percent (50%) of all
Sublicense Revenue in the Territory, which sublicense agreements shall conform
to the requirements of Section 3.13. Shared Product Profits, Shared Product
Losses and Sublicense Revenue shall be determined and paid as set forth in
Section 3.23.

3.18 ROYALTIES ON SALES OF INDEPENDENT PRODUCTS AFTER REVOCATION OF
COMMERCIALIZATION RIGHTS. In the event a party elects to terminate its
participation in the Commercialization of a Shared Product in a country or
countries in the Territory pursuant to Section 3.23(d), the parties shall
negotiate in good faith for a period of ninety (90) days following the
non-terminating party's receipt of such notice to determine the appropriate
royalty to be paid on Net Sales of such Shared Product as an Independent Product
by the other party as an Independent Party in such country or countries. In the
event the parties are unable to agree on the appropriate royalty pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence, the Independent Party with respect to such
Independent Product shall pay to the other party a royalty on annual Net Sales
of such Independent Product in each such country in the Territory pursuant to
Section 3.19, except that the applicable royalty shall be: [*] of the portion of
aggregate annual Net Sales of such Independent Product in such country that is
[*] of the portion of annual aggregate Net Sales of such Independent Product in
such country that is [*] of the portion of annual aggregate Net Sales of such
Independent Product in such country that is [*]. Such royalty will be payable on
a quarterly basis in respect of each country in which sales of such Shared
Product occur and in which a party has elected to terminate its participation in
the Commercialization of such Shared Product until the expiration of the license
granted to the non-terminating party under Section 4.1 with respect to such

Shared Product. Such royalty is subject to offsets as provided in the last
sentence of Section 3.19.

3.19 ROYALTIES OTHER THAN IN THE EVENT OF REVOCATION OF PROMOTION RIGHTS. Except
as otherwise provided in Section 3.18, the Independent Party will pay the
non-Independent Party, in lieu of any Share of Profits, a royalty on Net Sales
of each Independent Product equal to:
         (a)      [*] of Net Sales of such Independent Product if the
                  non-Independent Party did not participate, or terminates its
                  participation, in the Pre-Clinical Development of the relevant
                  Designated Shared Compound pursuant to Section 3.14 prior to
                  the submission of an IND on such compound;
         (b)      [*] of Net Sales of such Independent Product if the
                  non-Independent Party terminates its participation in the
                  Development of the relevant Designated Shared Compound
                  pursuant to Section 3.14 upon or following the submission of
                  an IND on such Independent Product but prior to the end of the
                  first Phase I Clinical Trial therefor;
         (c)      [*] of Net Sales of such Independent Product if the
                  non-Independent Party terminates participation in the
                  Development of the relevant Shared Product pursuant to Section
                  3.14 upon or following the end of the first Phase I Clinical
                  Trial on such Shared Product; or
         (d)      [*] of Net Sales of such Independent Product if the
                  non-Independent Party terminates participation in the
                  Development of the relevant Shared Product pursuant to Section
                  3.14 upon or following the end of the first Phase II Clinical
                  Trial on such Shared Product.

Such royalty shall be payable on a quarterly basis in respect of each country in
which sales of such Independent Product occur until the expiration of the
license granted the Independent Party under Section 4.1 with respect to such
Independent Product. The Independent Party may offset [*] of any royalties it
must pay to third parties pursuant to any licenses necessary to Manufacture and
Commercialize Independent Products against royalties payable by the Independent
Party to the non-Independent Party; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no event shall
the royalties payable by the Independent Party to the non-Independent Party be
reduced to less than [*] of the amounts that would have otherwise been due under
the percentages set forth in this Section 3.19 or Section 3.18, as applicable.

3.20 REMITTANCE. (a) Subject to Section 3.20(c), all payments required under
Sections 3.18 and 3.19 shall be payable in full in the United States in United
States Dollars, regardless of the countries in which sales are made. For the
purpose of computing Net Sales for which a currency other than United States
Dollars is received, such currency shall be converted into United States Dollars
at the simple average of all Mondays' exchange rate for buying United States
Dollars set forth in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL for the calendar quarter in which
such sales were made.

     (b) In the event that any payment due either party under this Agreement is
not made when due, the amount due shall accrue interest beginning on the fifth
day following the final date on which such payment was due, calculated at the
annual rate equal to the prime interest rate reported in the WALL STREET JOURNAL
for the due date, or, if lower, the maximum rate permitted by law, calculated
from the due date until paid in full. Such payment when made shall be
accompanied by all interest so accrued. Said interest and the payment and
acceptance thereof shall not negate or waive the right of the party to whom
payment is due to any other remedy, legal or equitable, to which it may be
entitled because of the delinquency of the payment.

     (c) If at any time legal restrictions within any country in the Territory
prevent the conversion of the local currency and such currency cannot be removed
from such country such that prompt remittance by the party owing a royalty of
any royalties owed in respect of sales in such country is prevented, the party
owing a royalty shall make payment through any lawful means or methods that may
be available as such party shall reasonably determine. If royalties in any
country cannot be remitted within three (3) months after the end of the relevant
royalty period, then the party owing a royalty shall pay the other party in the
local currency of such country by deposit of the relevant royalties in a bank
account in such country designated by the other party.

3.21 TAXES. The burden of paying all withholding or similar taxes that may be
imposed by any governmental authority on royalty and Share of Profit payment
amounts provided in this Section 3 with respect to Shared Products shall be
shared equally by Immusol and NeoGenesis. The burden of paying all withholding
or similar taxes that may be imposed by any governmental authority on royalty
payment amounts provided in this Section 3 with respect to Independent Products
shall be paid by the party receiving such royalty, and the party making such
royalty payment shall make such withholding payments as required and subtract
such

withholding payments from the payments to be made to the other party in respect
of such Independent Products, or, if applicable, the party receiving such
royalty payment will reimburse the other party or its designee(s) for the amount
of such withholding payments that are not subtracted from the payments made to
the party receiving such royalty payment as set forth in this Section 3.21,
within fifteen (15) days of notice from the party making such royalty payment in
respect of Independent Products. The party that makes any such withholding
payment shall provide the other party with documentation of such withholding and
payment in a manner that is satisfactory for purposes of reporting to the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service. Any withholdings paid when due hereunder shall be for
the account of the party receiving such royalty payment. Withholding payments
made by the party making such royalty payment in respect of Independent Products
pursuant to this Section 3.21 shall be made based upon financial information
provided to such party by the party receiving such royalty payment, and to the
extent that such information is incorrect, the party receiving such royalty
payment shall be liable for any deficiency, and any fine, assessment or penalty
imposed by any taxing authority in the Territory for any deficiency in the
amount of any such withholding or the failure to make such withholding payment.
If the party making such royalty payment is required to pay any such deficiency,
or any fine, assessment or penalty for any such deficiency, the party receiving
such royalty payment shall promptly reimburse it for such payments, within
fifteen (15) days of notice to the party receiving such royalty payment. The
parties will cooperate to minimize, to the extent legally permissible, the tax
liabilities related to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such
cooperation shall not cause any adverse tax consequences to be incurred by
either party which would not have otherwise been incurred under the provisions
of this Agreement, including this Section 3.21.

3.22 RECORDS AND INSPECTION. (a) NeoGenesis and Immusol and, if applicable,
their respective Affiliates and sublicensees, each shall keep accurate books and
accounts of record (prepared in accordance with GAAP) in connection with the
Pre-Clinical Development, Development, Manufacture and/or Commercialization by
or for such party of all Designated Shared Compounds, Derivative Compounds
thereof, Shared Products, Independent Compounds, Derivative Compounds thereof
and Independent Products in the Territory in sufficient detail to permit
accurate determination of all figures necessary for verification of Development
Costs, royalties, Shared Product Profits, Shared Product Losses, Sublicense
Revenue, Expenses and other compensation required to be paid or expenses
required to be shared hereunder. NeoGenesis and

Immusol shall maintain such records for a period of three (3) years after the
end of the year in which such records were generated.

     (b) Each party and, if applicable, its Affiliates shall, and shall provide
in any agreements with any sublicensees that such sublicensees shall, make such
records available for inspection by an independent certified public accountant,
mutually agreed to by the inspecting party and the party being inspected, during
regular business hours at such place or places where such records are
customarily kept, upon reasonable notice from the inspecting party, to verify
the accuracy of the reports and any compensation required to be paid or expenses
required to be shared hereunder. Such inspection right shall not be exercised
more than once in any calendar year. The inspecting party agrees to hold in
confidence all information concerning payments, expenses and reports, and all
information learned in the course of any inspection, except to the extent
necessary for the inspecting party to reveal such information in order to
enforce its rights under this Agreement in a proceeding in accordance with
Section 9.1 or if disclosure is required by law, regulation or judicial order.
Any person or entity conducting such inspection will agree in writing with the
inspecting party to treat all records reviewed in the course of the inspection
as the Confidential Information of the party being inspected under terms and
conditions no less restrictive than the terms contained in Section 5.2. The
results of each inspection shall be binding on both parties absent mathematical
error. The inspecting party shall pay for such inspections, except that in the
event there is any upward adjustment in aggregate amounts payable for any year

     (b) For the purposes of calculating Shared Product Profit or Shared Product
Loss for a Shared Product, a given item of cost or expense shall be allocated
only to one category of cost and expense and not to multiple categories. Each
party agrees to determine such costs and expenses hereunder with respect to
Shared Products using its standard accounting procedures, consistently applied,
to the maximum extent practical, as if such Shared Product were a solely owned
product of the party, except as specifically provided in this Agreement. The
parties also recognize that such procedures may change from time to time and
that any such changes may affect the definitions of the elements of the Shared
Product Profit or Shared Product Loss. The parties agree that, where such
changes are economically material to either party, adjustments shall be made to
compensate the affected party in order to preserve the same economics as
reflected under this Agreement under such party's accounting procedures in
effect as of the date on which the activity in question (for example,
Development, marketing or Manufacturing) first commences under this Agreement.
Transfers between a party and its Affiliates (or between such Affiliates) shall
not have effect for purposes of calculating revenues, costs, profits, royalties
or other payments or expenses under this Agreement.

3.24 COMMERCIALIZATION. (a) The Steering Committee shall oversee and implement
all Commercialization activities in the Territory for Shared Products, based on
the principle of maximizing profits from sales of Shared Products. The Steering
Committee shall have the ability to determine whether the objective of
maximizing profits from sales of Shared Products in the Territory is best
achieved through, INTER ALIA, granting sublicenses to a third party or third
parties, creating or entering into joint ventures with third parties or jointly
Commercializing such Shared Products as provided in this Section 3.24. In the
event the Steering Committee determines that the foregoing objective is best
achieved by activities other than as provided in this Section 3.24, the Steering
Committee shall determine by unanimous decision the optimal alternative
structure and the duties, responsibilities and economic parameters for the
parties and third parties in such alternative structure.

     (b) No later than one month after filing of the NDA for a Shared Product,
the Steering Committee shall commence preparation of a marketing plan (MARKETING
PLAN) and a marketing budget (MARKETING BUDGET) for such Shared Product. The
Commercialization of a Shared Product in the Territory will be governed by the
Marketing Plan and Marketing Budget. The Marketing Plan and Marketing Budget
will describe fully, to the extent

practicable, the proposed plan for Commercialization of the Shared Product in
each country in which the parties Commercialize Shared Products, including
overall marketing strategy, marketing, sales and promotion efforts to be
performed by each party, market and sales forecasts, pricing, reimbursement and
discounting analysis and estimated launch date, as well as preparation of
advertising and other promotional materials to be used in the promotion of
Shared Products. The Marketing Plan will take into consideration market
conditions, regulatory factors and competition with respect to the Shared
Product. The Marketing Budget will include all projected Expenses for the Shared
Product. The initial Marketing Plan and Marketing Budget shall be completed by
the Steering Committee no later than [*] after the first filing of an NDA (or
its foreign equivalent) for a Shared Product in any country in the Territory.
Each such Marketing Plan and Marketing Budget shall thereafter be updated by the
Steering Committee every [*], or more frequently if agreed by the parties.

     (c) NeoGenesis and Immusol shall have the co-exclusive responsibility for
promoting such Shared Product in the Territory, except as otherwise provided in
Section 3.24(a). Immusol and NeoGenesis shall each diligently perform its
respective obligations under the Marketing Plan and use Commercially Reasonable
Efforts to Commercialize Shared Products in the Territory pursuant to the terms
and conditions hereof. The parties intend that each party shall provide fifty
percent (50%) of the total promotional and marketing effort (including details,
if determined to be an appropriate sales activity for a party by the Steering
Committee) for each Shared Product being Commercialized by the parties in the
Territory, as determined by the Steering Committee. The Steering Committee will
determine appropriate written standards for measuring, and accounting procedures
to confirm and document, each party's marketing and promotional effort under the
Marketing Plan, no later than one month after the filing of the NDA for any
Shared Product. Nothing contained in this Section 3.24 shall be deemed to
preclude either party from relinquishing its right to participate in the
Commercialization of Shared Products in the Territory pursuant to Section
3.24(d), at any time.

     (d) Either party may terminate its participation in the Commercialization
of a Shared Product in any country in the Territory at any time following six
(6) months' prior written notice to the other party. In such case, the other
party may continue Commercialization of such Shared Product as an Independent
Product, either alone or with a third party, and shall thereafter be deemed to
be an Independent Party for such Independent Product solely with respect to such
country or countries, effective as of the

date of the terminating party's notice hereunder, in which case the terminating
party's license under Section 4.1 shall be terminated in the country or
countries in which such party has terminated its participation in the
Commercialization of such Shared Product (the TERMINATED COUNTRIES). In the
event a party elects to cease participating in the Commercialization of a Shared
Product in a country in the Territory and the other party proceeds to
Commercialize such Shared Product in the Terminated Countries as an Independent
Product, the terminating party shall (i) transfer and assign to the Independent
Party all regulatory submissions and Regulatory Approvals in such country
relating to such former Shared Product, together with all materials and data
related thereto in its possession, and (ii) transfer to the Independent Party
all other relevant information that will enable such Independent Party to
Commercialize such former Shared Product as an Independent Product in such
country. A non-Independent Party may not reinitiate its participation in the
Commercialization of a Shared Product in any country in the Territory in which
it relinquished such right hereunder. Any relinquishment of a party's right to
Commercialize Shared Products pursuant to this Section 3.23(d) shall not be a
breach of this Agreement. If both parties terminate their participation in the
Commercialization of a Shared Product, the parties will confer and mutually
agree on a plan for seeking a third party to conduct such Commercialization.

     (e) The parties shall disseminate in the Territory only those promotional
and advertising materials that have been provided or approved for use by the
Steering Committee, and the cost of producing such materials shall be an Expense
of the party incurring such cost. All such materials shall be consistent with
the relevant Marketing Plan and Marketing Budget approved, unanimously, by the
Steering Committee and neither party shall make any claims or representations in
respect of the Shared Products outside the scope of those previously approved by
the Steering Committee.

     (f) The Steering Committee shall designate a party as being primarily
responsible for each country in the Territory for booking sales, establishing
pricing for Shared Products based upon the market analyses performed by the
parties under the direction of the Steering Committee, obtaining necessary
pricing approvals, handling returns and customer complaints and providing
samples. In addition, the Steering Committee shall determine the policies and
procedures necessary to implement the foregoing, including coordination of the
parties' efforts to train sales and marketing representatives for Shared
Products.

3.25 TRADEMARKS. (a) The parties shall mutually select the trademark or
trademarks for a Shared Product. To the extent commercially reasonable and
appropriate, a single trademark shall be used for each Shared Product in all
countries in the Territory. To the extent the parties determine that the use of
a single trademark for a given Shared Product is impractical or not advisable
given cultural and other differences among countries in the Territory, the
parties shall agree on the appropriate trademark for a Shared Product for use
within different countries within the Territory; PROVIDED that in no event shall
different trademarks be used for the same Shared Product within the same country
in the Territory (unless such Shared Product is being sold for more than one
indication and the parties mutually agree). Each trademark shall be used only in
connection with the applicable Shared Product and shall not be used by either
party on, or in connection with, any other product. The Steering Committee shall
determine which party shall own each trademark used to promote Shared Products
in the Territory and assign responsibility to one or both parties for searching
candidate trademark names and filing, prosecuting, maintaining and all
reasonable steps necessary in defending each Shared Product trademark
application(s) and/or trademark(s), as applicable.

     (b) The party owning a given trademark and related intellectual property
rights in a country in the Territory shall, and hereby does, grant to the other
party a nonexclusive, royalty-free license, with the right to grant sublicenses
only with the prior written consent of the granting party, not to be
unreasonably withheld, to use such trademark to promote and Commercialize Shared
Products as permitted under this Agreement, provided that the party receiving
such license shall refrain from taking any actions that may dilute or otherwise
reduce the value of such trademark. If necessary under the trademark laws of a
country in the Territory, the party owning a given trademark shall record the
other party as an authorized user of such trademark in such country. The parties
shall approve all trade dress, logos, slogans, designs and copyrights used on
and in connection with any Shared Product in the Territory. During the term of
this Agreement, the Screening Committee shall approve all printed materials
bearing each trademark for a Shared Product in the Territory, including but not
limited to business materials, printed materials, advertising materials,
promotional materials and any such other materials that may reference or
incorporate such trademark.

     (c) In the event that any action or proceeding is brought against either or
both NeoGenesis or Immusol with respect to a Shared Product trademark in the
Territory or relating to any alleged infringement of a third

party's trademark, trade dress or similar intellectual property rights in the
Territory arising out of the parties' promotion or Commercialization of Shared
Products pursuant to this Agreement, each party shall promptly notify the other
and cooperate in the defense of any such action or proceeding, as applicable.
The parties shall agree on the management of such action. In the event Immusol
or NeoGenesis becomes aware of any actual or threatened violation of any
trademark for a Shared Product in any country in the Territory, that party shall
promptly notify the other party and the Steering Committee shall promptly
discuss how to proceed in connection with such actual or threatened violation.
Any expenses incurred by either or both parties for searching candidate
trademark names, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending and enforcing
trademark application(s) and/or trademark(s) (as applicable) for Shared Products
shall be included as an element of the Other Allowable Expenses.

3.26 SUPPLY OF SHARED PRODUCT. The Steering Committee shall be responsible for
determining the sources of, and arrangements for, the clinical and commercial
Manufacture and supply of Designated Shared Compounds and Shared Products in a
manner designed to result in long-term profit maximization for such Shared
Products. The Steering Committee shall endeavor to establish multiple sources of
bulk material and fill and finish services and to establish policies for the
maintenance of inventories of key intermediates, bulk material and finished
products and for such other matters as necessary or useful to assure such supply
of Shared Products in the Territory. The Independent Party shall arrange for the
Manufacture and supply of Independent Compounds, Derivative Compounds thereof
and Independent Products, in both bulk and finished form.

3.27 SPECIFICATIONS FOR SHARED PRODUCTS. The parties shall designate one of the
parties to be responsible for establishing, subject to unanimous approval by the
Steering Committee, the specifications for bulk and finished Shared Product, and
providing and maintaining any necessary documentation, certificates of analysis
and test results, for each Shared Product. Copies of all such specifications and
other information and documentation will be provided promptly to each party. In
addition, notice of, and results and data from, all FDA (or its foreign
equivalent) audits relating to the Manufacture of Shared Products will be
provided to each party.

3.28 TERMS OF MANUFACTURE AND SUPPLY. The parties shall establish procedures
acceptable to both parties regarding forecasting of and ordering for each
party's requirements of the Shared Products in the Territory.

3.29 ADVERSE EVENTS. During the term of this Agreement, each party shall
promptly advise the other by telephone, telefax or overnight delivery service of
every serious or unexpected side effect, adverse reaction or injury that has
been brought to that party's attention and which is alleged to have been caused
by a Shared Product. For each country in the Territory, the party that has the
responsibility for filing the Regulatory Approval and the IND (or foreign
equivalent) in such country for such Shared Product shall have all rights and
responsibilities to report such side effect, adverse reaction or injury to the
appropriate Regulatory Authority(ies) as required by Applicable Laws. The
parties shall establish a procedure for such reporting obligations prior to
commencement of Phase I Clinical Trials for the first Shared Product.

3.30 COMMUNICATION WITH REGULATORY AGENCIES. If a party is contacted by the FDA
or any equivalent regulatory agency in any country in the Territory during the
term of this Agreement pertaining to a Shared Product, Immusol and NeoGenesis
shall promptly, but always within two (2) business days, notify and consult with
one another. The party that has responsibility for regulatory filings for a
Shared Product shall provide an appropriate response to such contact after such
consultation with the other party, except where an earlier response may be
required by law or to assure patient safety.

3.31 SHARED PRODUCT RECALL. In the event that NeoGenesis or Immusol determines
that an event, incident or circumstance has occurred that may result in the need
for a recall or other removal of any Shared Product or any lot or lots thereof
from the market in a country within the Territory, it shall promptly advise and
consult with the other party with respect thereto. Thereafter, on a
country-by-country basis, the owner of the Regulatory Approval for such Shared
Product in a country shall, in its sole discretion (except as otherwise required
by such government authority), have the right to order a recall or other removal
after such consultation, and the other party shall co-operate with such recall.
Any expenses related to a recall in the Territory for a Shared Product shall be
included in Recall Expenses.

     (e) In any infringement suit as either party may institute to enforce
Immusol Intellectual Property, Immusol Patent Rights, NeoGenesis Intellectual
Property, NeoGenesis Patent Rights or Program Intellectual Property, or in any
declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity or non-infringement of any
Immusol Intellectual Property, Immusol Patent Rights, NeoGenesis Intellectual
Property, NeoGenesis Patent Rights or Program Intellectual Property brought
against NeoGenesis or Immusol, the other party shall, at the request and expense
of the party initiating or defending the suit or action, cooperate and assist in
all reasonable respects, having its employees testify when requested and making
available relevant records, papers, information, specimens and the like.

     (f) Notwithstanding any provisions of Section 4.4 to the contrary, each
party shall promptly give written notice to the other of any certification of

(or any amendment or successor statute thereto), and the parties shall each
perform their obligations under Section 4.4(a) or 4.4(b), as applicable, so
that they are able to commence an infringement action in respect of such
matter within the applicable statutory period.

5.   CONFIDENTIALITY
5.1  PUBLICITY. The parties shall agree upon the text and the exact timing of an
initial public announcement relating to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement as soon as practicable after the Effective Date (such agreement not to

without the need for further approval by the other party. Thereafter, unless
permitted by the preceding sentence, each party agrees not to issue any press
release or other public statement, written or oral, to the public, the press,
the stockholders or otherwise, relating to this Agreement that has not
previously been approved in writing by the other party. Nothing in this Section
5.1 shall prohibit a party from making such disclosures to the extent required
under applicable federal or state securities laws or any rule or regulation of
any nationally recognized securities exchange. In such event, however, the

SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION.

                                      48

shall use good faith efforts to notify and consult with the other party prior to
such disclosure and, where applicable, shall diligently seek confidential
treatment to the extent such treatment is available under applicable securities
laws.

5.2  CONFIDENTIALITY. (a) Except as permitted in accordance with Section 5.1,
either party may only disclose the general nature, but not the specific
financial or other material terms, of this Agreement without the prior consent
of the other party; PROVIDED that either party may provide a copy of this
Agreement or disclose the terms of this Agreement (i) to any finance provider in
conjunction with a financing transaction, if such finance provider agrees to
keep this Agreement confidential, (ii) to enforce its rights under this
Agreement in a proceeding in accordance with Section 9.1, (iii) to any legal or
financial advisor of such party, or (iv) in response to a subpoena or other
validly issued administrative or judicial process requesting disclosure of same;
PROVIDED, the party that receives such order or process provides prompt notice
to the disclosing party before making any disclosure (to the extent possible)
and permits the disclosing party to oppose or narrow such request for disclosure
and supports any of disclosing party's reasonable efforts to oppose such request
(at disclosing party's expense) and shall disclose the terms of this Agreement
only in the event of a final judgment or administrative order requiring such
disclosure, and only to the extent necessary to comply with such request.

     (b) Confidential Information of each party and Program Intellectual
Property owned by such party will be used by the other party solely for the
purposes permitted by this Agreement. All Confidential Information and any
Program Intellectual Property owned by a party will be received and held in
confidence by the receiving party, subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
Each party acknowledges that, except for the rights expressly granted under this
Agreement, it will not obtain any rights of any sort in or to the Confidential
Information of the other party as a result of such disclosure and that any such
rights must be the subject of separate written agreement(s).

     (c) Each party will restrict disclosure of the other party's Confidential
Information and any Program Intellectual Property owned by such party to those
of its employees and consultants to whom it is necessary or useful to disclose
such Confidential Information and Program Intellectual Property in connection
with the purposes permitted under this Agreement. Each party shall use
reasonable efforts, including at least efforts fully commensurate with those
employed by the party for the protection of its

own Confidential Information, to protect the Confidential Information and
Program Intellectual Property of the other party.

     (d) Either disclosing party may at any time notify the receiving party that
such receiving party must return to the disclosing party the disclosing party's
Confidential Information and any Program Intellectual Property owned by such
party. Each party hereby agrees to, within thirty (30) days of such
notification: (i) return all documents and tangible items it or its employees or
agents have received or created pursuant to this Agreement pertaining, referring
or relating to the other party's Confidential Information and any Program
Intellectual Property owned by such party; and (ii) return or certify (in a
writing attested to by a duly authorized officer of such party) destruction of
all copies, summaries, modifications or adaptations that such party or its
employees or agents have made from the materials provided by the disclosing
party; provided, however, that a party is permitted to retain one copy of such
materials in its legal files to be used to verify compliance with its
obligations hereunder.

     (e) Nothing herein shall prevent a receiving party from disclosing all or
part of the Confidential Information and any Program Intellectual Property owned
by the disclosing party in response to a subpoena or other validly issued
administrative or judicial process requesting disclosure of same; PROVIDED, the
party that receives such order or process provides prompt notice to the
disclosing party before making any disclosure (to the extent possible) and
permits the disclosing party to oppose or narrow such request for disclosure and
supports any of the disclosing party's reasonable efforts to oppose such request
(at disclosing party's expense) and shall disclose such Confidential Information
or Program Intellectual Property only in the event of a final judgement or
administrative order requiring such disclosure, and only to the extent necessary
to comply with such request.

5.3  PUBLICATIONS. Each party recognizes that the publication of papers
regarding results of the Screening Program, including oral presentations and
abstracts, may be beneficial to both parties provided such publications are
subject to reasonable controls to protect Confidential Information. In
particular, it is the intent of the parties to maintain the confidentiality of
any Confidential Information regarding the compounds included in any patent
application until such patent application has been published. Accordingly, each
party shall have the right to review and comment upon any paper proposed for
publication by the other party regarding results of the Screening Program
hereunder, including oral presentations and

includes Confidential Information of the other party. Before any such paper is
submitted for publication, the party proposing publication shall deliver a
complete copy to the other party at least thirty (30) days prior to submitting
the paper to a publisher. The receiving party shall review any such paper and
give its comments to the publishing party within twenty (20) days of the
delivery of such paper to the receiving party. With respect to oral presentation
materials, the parties shall make reasonable efforts to expedite review of such
materials, and shall return such items as soon as practicable to the disclosing
party with appropriate comments, if any, but in no event later than twenty (20)
days from the date of delivery to the receiving party. The disclosing party
shall comply with the other party's request to delete references to such other
party's Confidential Information in any such paper and agrees to withhold
publication of same for an additional one hundred eighty (180) days (or longer
if necessary) in order to permit the parties to obtain patent protection, if
either of the parties deem it necessary, in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. If there is a dispute regarding publications, such dispute shall be
resolved by the Steering Committee.

PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, HOWEVER CAUSED, UNDER ANY THEORY OF
LIABILITY.

7.2  THIRD PARTY CLAIMS (EXCLUDING INFRINGEMENT). Subject to the provisions of
Section 7.4, each of NeoGenesis and Immusol (each, in such capacity, an
INDEMNIFYING PARTY) will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party,
its subsidiaries, parent corporations, affiliates, officers, directors,
partners, members, shareholders, employees, agents, and their successors and
assigns (each, in such capacity, an INDEMNIFIED PARTY) from and against any
claim, suit, demand, loss, damage, expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees
of Indemnified Party(ies) and those that may be asserted by a third party) or
liability including but not limited to claims for death or personal injury
(collectively, LOSSES) imposed upon the Indemnified Party(ies) by any third
party arising from or related to: (i) any material breach of the Indemnifying
Party's representations and warranties under this Agreement; or (ii) any
negligence or intentional misconduct by the Indemnifying Party (or its
employees, agents, representatives, Affiliates, licensees, sublicensees or
distributors) in performing its obligations under this Agreement; or (iii) the
labeling, packaging, package insert, other materials or promotional claims with
respect to any Shared Product or Independent Product or the Development,
testing, Manufacturing, Commercialization, use or other disposition of any
Shared Product or Independent Product by the Indemnifying Party or by an
Affiliate, licensee, sublicensee, distributor or agent of the Indemnifying
Party; or (iv) (with respect to Immusol as an Indemnifying Party) the labeling,
packaging, package insert, other materials or promotional claims with respect to
any Product or the development, testing, Manufacturing, Commercialization, use
or other disposition of any Product by Immusol or by an Affiliate, licensee,
sublicensee, distributor or agent of Immusol. The foregoing indemnification
action shall not apply in the event and to the extent that such Losses arose as
a result of any Indemnified Party's negligence, intentional misconduct or breach
of this Agreement.

7.3  INFRINGEMENT INDEMNIFICATION. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 7.4,
NeoGenesis shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Immusol Indemnified
Party(ies) from and against any Losses imposed upon them by any third party and

Intellectual Property or practice of the NeoGenesis Patent Rights by Immusol in
accordance with the terms of this

*=CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED: MATERIAL HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED
SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION.

                                      53
<Page>

Agreement violates or infringes the intellectual property rights of any third
party. NeoGenesis shall have no liability or obligation to Immusol under this
Section 7.3(a) in the event and to the extent that the alleged infringement
results from willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Immusol or its
Affiliates, or its or their respective employees, officers, directors or agents.

     (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 7.4, Immusol shall defend,
indemnify and hold harmless the NeoGenesis Indemnified Party(ies) from and
against any Losses imposed upon them by any third party and arising from or
related to a third party claim that use of the Immusol Intellectual Property or
practice of the Immusol Patent Rights by NeoGenesis in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement violates or infringes the intellectual property rights of any
third party. Immusol shall have no obligation or liability to NeoGenesis under
this Section 7.3(b) in the event and to the extent that the alleged infringement
(i) is covered by Section 7.3(a) or (ii) results from willful misconduct or
negligent acts or omissions of NeoGenesis or its Affiliates, or its or their
respective employees, officers, directors or agents.

7.4  PROCEDURE. To receive the benefit of indemnification under Sections 7.2 or
7.3, the Indemnified Party must (a) promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of a
claim or suit; PROVIDED, that failure to give such notice shall not relieve
Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations except where, and solely
to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the rights
of Indemnifying Party; (b) provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying
Party (and its insurer), as reasonably requested, at Indemnifying Party's cost
and expense; and (c) tender to the Indemnifying Party (and its insurer) full
authority to defend or settle the claim or suit; PROVIDED that no settlement
requiring any admission by the Indemnified Party or that imposes any obligation
on the Indemnified Party shall be made without the Indemnified Party's consent.
Neither party has any obligation to indemnify the other party in connection with
any settlement made without the Indemnifying Party's written consent. The
Indemnified Party has the right to participate at its own expense in the claim
or suit and in selecting counsel therefor.

whichever is later.

8.2  TERMINATION. (a) Either party may terminate the license under Section 4.1
with sixty (60) days' notice if the other party commits a material breach
(including non-payment), unless the breach is cured within the sixty (60)-day
notice period; PROVIDED that if more than one compound is being developed or
commercialized by a party or its Affiliates hereunder, and the other party

relating only to a single compound, then the terminating party shall be entitled
to terminate this Agreement only with respect to the applicable compound.

shall return to the other party or certify in writing to the other party that it
has destroyed all documents and other tangible items it or its employees or
agents have received or created pertaining, referring or relating to the

party; provided, however, that a party is permitted to retain one copy of such
materials in its legal files to be used to verify compliance with its
obligations hereunder.

     (c) The license granted by NeoGenesis under Section 4.1 (a) shall survive
any expiration or termination of the Screening Program or this Agreement with
respect to any Designated Shared Compound, Derivative Compound thereof, Product
and Shared Product for which the applicable fees and milestone fees and
royalties or the amounts due under Section 3, as applicable, have been paid and
with respect to any Independent Compound, Derivative Compound thereof and
Independent Product for which the amounts due under Section 3 have been paid (in

4.4 and 4.5 and complies with Sections 4.6-4.9, or to pay NeoGenesis the amounts
due under Section 3, as applicable. The license granted by Immusol under
Section 4.1 (b) shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement
with respect to any Designated Shared Compound, Derivative Compound thereof,
Shared Product, Independent Compound, Derivative Compound thereof and
Independent Product for which the amounts due under Section 3 have been paid (in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement). The license granted under Section
4.1 shall not survive termination or expiration of the Screening Program or this
Agreement with respect to Designated Shared Compounds, Derivative Compounds
thereof, Shared Products, Independent Compounds, Derivative Compounds thereof
and Independent Products for which the applicable fees and milestone fees and
royalties or the amounts due under Section 3, as applicable, have not been paid

to the other party for any compensation or damages by reason of termination of
this Agreement in accordance with this Section 8.

     (e) Nothing herein shall be construed to release either party of any
obligation which matured prior to the effective date of any termination. Either
party's liability for any uncontested charges, payments or expenses due to the
other party that accrued prior to the termination date shall not be extinguished
by termination, and such amounts (if not otherwise due on an earlier date) shall
be immediately due and payable on the termination date.

a Discontinued Compound or Non-Proposed Compound as contemplated in the last
sentence of Sections 3.3 and 3.4, respectively; PROVIDED, that such party
complies with the provisions of Section 3.15(c) and the provisions of this
Agreement referenced therein, which provisions shall survive termination or

                                SCREENING PROGRAM

NeoGenesis will screen [*] compounds contained in the NeoGenesis NeoMorph
Screening Library against each Shared Target using the protocol described below.

1.   Immusol will provide NeoGenesis with [*] of each of the purified
functionally-active Shared Target proteins and may, at Immusol's option, provide
additional quantities if requested by NeoGenesis. NeoGenesis will perform
initial experiments on the Shared Targets to determine screening conditions in
NeoGenesis' ALIS protocols. NeoGenesis will establish SOPs for ALIS screening
based on the preceding experiments.

2.   Using the SOPs, NeoGenesis will perform ALIS screening of [*] compounds
from the NeoMorph Screening Library against each Shared Target. The ALIS
screening will be carried out under moderately stringent conditions to
identify compounds that bind to the Shared Target with binding affinities
better than [*] micromolar (Kd < [*]) (each such compound is a PRELIMINARY
COMPOUND).

3.   If NeoGenesis identifies a Preliminary Compound(s) for the Shared Target
and Immusol is able to provide NeoGenesis with a second protein that differs
from the Shared Target but is of the same functional class of protein as the
Shared Target, NeoGenesis will screen such second protein against the
Preliminary Compound(s) to determine the relative selectivity of the Preliminary
Compound for the Shared Target(s). Alternatively, if Immusol is unable to
deliver a second protein of the same functional class, NeoGenesis will screen an
unrelated protein selected by the Screening Committee against the Preliminary
Compound(s) to assay the specificity of the initial Preliminary Compounds. If
Immusol is able to deliver a second protein of the same functional class, then
Immusol will provide NeoGenesis with [*] of such protein.

4.   If NeoGenesis identifies a Preliminary Compound(s) for the Shared Target,
NeoGenesis will re-synthesize a NeoMorph library containing each such
Preliminary Compound and subject each such Preliminary Compound to ALIS
screening for confirmation of binding to the Shared Target(s).

5.   After performing the selectivity analysis and confirmatory ALIS screening
described in Paragraphs 3 and 4 above on the Preliminary Compound(s), the
Steering Committee will review the structure(s), binding affinities and target
specificities of such Preliminary Compound(s) and choose [*] Preliminary
Compounds as discrete compound(s) (each such compound is referred to as a
DISCRETE COMPOUND) for further testing as described in Paragraphs 6-10 below.

<Page>

6.   NeoGenesis will purify all Discrete Compounds and subject them to screening
on an individual basis for confirmation of binding to the Shared Target. In
addition, at Immusol's option, either (i) NeoGenesis will deliver to Immusol [*]
of each Discrete Compound and Immusol will evaluate the activity of these
Discrete Compound(s) in a Shared Target-based functional assay and will notify
NeoGenesis of the results of such assays, including any Discrete Compounds which
have demonstrated activity in the Shared Target-based functional assays (each, a
PRIMARY ACTIVE COMPOUND) within [*] after completion of such assays and not
later than [*] after the Discrete Compounds are delivered by NeoGenesis or, (ii)
NeoGenesis will evaluate the activity of the Discrete Compound(s) in Shared
Target-based functional assay(s) that have been delivered to NeoGenesis by
Immusol and will notify Immusol of any Primary Active Compounds within [*] after
completion of such assays and not later than [*] after the Shared Target-based
functional assay is delivered by Immusol.

7.   If either Immusol or NeoGenesis identifies one or more Primary Active
Compounds pursuant to Paragraph 6, then NeoGenesis will prepare a report for all
Primary Active Compound(s) that details the chemical structures, binding
affinities, Target specificities, functional activities and competition analysis
data for such Primary Active Compound(s) (each, a FINAL SHARED TARGET REPORT).
NeoGenesis will deliver such Final Shared Target Report to Immusol when it
notifies Immusol of such Primary Active Compounds or, if Immusol has conducted
the functional assays, within [*] of receipt of the results of such assays from
Immusol.

8.   The Steering Committee will select [*] Primary Active Compounds per Shared
Target, for further study or optimization (each, a SELECTED SHARED COMPOUND).

9.   NeoGenesis will perform optimization on Selected Shared Compounds as
directed by the Steering Committee. To perform such optimization, NeoGenesis
will create NeoMorph Focused Libraries based upon such Selected Shared Compounds
and will perform high stringency-ALIS screening to improve Kd values to [*]
micromolar or better (i.e., Kd < [*]).

10.  NeoGenesis will provide Immusol with [*] of each discrete Selected Shared
Compound(s) for further evaluation by Immusol in Target-based secondary assays
and, at the option of the Steering Committee, exploratory chemistry or
toxicological studies, on a shared-cost basis in accordance with Section 3.
Immusol will notify NeoGenesis of any such Selected Shared Compound(s) which
demonstrate activity in the Shared Target-based secondary assays within [*]
after completion of such assays and not later than [*] after the discrete
Selected Shared

ARTICLE II.
  SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN    
  

        2.1  Shares Subject to Plan.

        (a)  The
shares of stock subject to Options shall be Common Stock, initially shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.01 per share. The aggregate number of such
shares which may be issued upon exercise of such Options under the Plan shall not exceed 5 million. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Options may be either previously
authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares. 

        (b)  The
maximum number of shares which may be subject to Options, granted under the Plan to any individual in any calendar year shall not exceed the Award Limit. To the
extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code, shares subject to Options which are canceled, continue to be counted against the Award Limit and if, after grant of an Option, the price of shares
subject to such Option is reduced, the transaction is treated as a cancellation of the Option and a grant of a new Option and both the Option deemed to be canceled and the Option deemed to be granted
are counted against the Award Limit. 

        2.2  Add-back of Options. If any Option, expires or is canceled without having been fully exercised, or is
exercised in whole or in part for cash as permitted by the Plan, the number of shares subject to such Option but as to which such Option was not exercised prior to its expiration, cancellation or
exercise may again be awarded hereunder, subject to the limitations of Section 2.1. Furthermore, any shares subject to Options which are adjusted pursuant to Section 8.3 and become
exercisable with respect to shares of stock of another corporation shall be considered cancelled and may again be optioned, granted or awarded hereunder, subject to the limitations of
Section 2.1. Shares of Common Stock which are withheld by the Company upon the exercise of any Option under the Plan, in payment of the exercise price thereof or tax withholding thereon, may
again be optioned, granted or awarded hereunder, subject to the limitations of Section 2.1. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.2, no
shares of Common Stock may again be awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code. 

 
 

ARTICLE III.
  GRANTING OF OPTIONS    
  

        3.1  Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement. Option Agreements evidencing Options intended to
qualify as performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code shall contain such terms and conditions as may be necessary to meet the applicable provisions of
Section 162(m) of the Code. Option Agreements evidencing Incentive Stock Options shall contain such terms and conditions as may be necessary to meet the applicable provisions of
Section 422 of the Code. 

        3.2  Provisions Applicable to Section 162(m) Participants. The Committee, in its discretion, may determine whether an
Option is to qualify as performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code. 

        3.3  Consideration. In consideration of the granting of an Option under the Plan, the Optionee shall agree, in the Option
Agreement, to remain in the employ of (or to consult for or to serve as an Independent Director of, as applicable) the Company or any Subsidiary for a period of at least one year (or such shorter
period as may be fixed in the Option Agreement or by action of the Administrator following grant of the Option) after the Option is granted (or, in the case of an Independent Director, until the next
annual meeting of stockholders of the Company). 

4

 

        3.4  At-Will Employment. Nothing in the Plan or in any Option Agreement hereunder shall confer upon any Optionee
any right to continue in the employ of, or as a Consultant for, the Company or any Subsidiary, or as a director of the Company, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company
and any Subsidiary, which are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge any Optionee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a
written employment agreement between the Optionee and the Company and any Subsidiary. 

 
 

ARTICLE IV.
  ELIGIBILITY AND OPTION GRANTS    
  

        4.1  Eligibility. Any Employee or Consultant selected by the Committee pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(i) shall be
eligible to be granted an Option. Each Independent Director of the Company shall be eligible to be granted Options at the times and in the manner set forth in Section 4.5. 

        4.2  Disqualification for Stock Ownership. No person may be granted an Incentive Stock Option under the Plan if such person,
at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any then existing
Subsidiary or parent corporation (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) unless such Incentive Stock Option conforms to the applicable provisions of Section 422 of the Code. 

        4.3  Qualification of Incentive Stock Options. No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any person who is not an
Employee. 

        4.4  Granting of Options to Employees and Consultants.

        (a)  The
Committee shall from time to time, in its absolute discretion, and subject to applicable limitations of the Plan: 

        (i)    Determine
which Employees are key Employees and select from among the key Employees or Consultants (including Employees or Consultants who have previously received
Options under the Plan) such of them as in its opinion should be granted Options; 

        (ii)  Subject
to the Award Limit, determine the number of shares to be subject to such Options granted to the selected key Employees or Consultants; 

        (iii)  Subject
to Section 4.3, determine whether such Options are to be Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options and whether such Options are
to qualify as performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code; and 

        (iv)  Determine
the terms and conditions of such Options, consistent with the Plan; provided, however, that the terms and conditions of Options intended to qualify as
performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code shall include, but not be limited to, such terms and conditions as may be necessary to meet the applicable
provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code. 

        (b)  Upon
the selection of a key Employee or Consultant to be granted an Option, the Committee shall instruct the Secretary of the Company to issue the Option and may impose
such conditions on the grant of the Option as it deems appropriate. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Committee may, in its discretion and on such terms as it deems
appropriate, require as a condition on the grant of an Option to an Employee or Consultant that the Employee or Consultant surrender for cancellation some or all of the unexercised Options which have
been previously granted to him under the Plan or otherwise. An Option, the grant of which is conditioned upon such surrender, may have an Option price lower (or higher) than the 

5

 

exercise price of such surrendered Option or other award, may cover the same (or a lesser or greater) number of shares as such surrendered Option or other award, may contain such other terms as the
Committee deems appropriate, and shall be exercisable in accordance with its terms, without regard to the number of shares, price, exercise period or any other term or condition of such surrendered
Option or other award. 

        (c)  Any
Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan may be modified by the Committee, with the consent of the Optionee, to disqualify such Option from treatment as an
"incentive stock option" under Section 422 of the Code. 

        4.5  Granting of Options to Independent Directors. The Board shall from time to time, in its discretion, and subject to
applicable limitations of the Plan select from among the Independent Directors (including Independent Directors who have previously received Options under the Plan) such of them as in its opinion
should be granted Non-Qualified Stock Options, determine the number of shares to be subject to such Non-Qualified Stock Options granted to the selected Independent Directors
and determine the terms and conditions of such Non-Qualified Stock Options, consistent with the terms of the Plan. 

        4.6  Options in Lieu of Cash Compensation. Options may be granted under the Plan to Employees and Consultants in lieu of cash
bonuses which would otherwise be payable to such Employees and Consultants and to Independent Directors in lieu of directors' fees which would otherwise be payable to such Independent Directors,
pursuant to such policies which may be adopted by the Administrator from time to time. 

 
 

ARTICLE V.
  TERMS OF OPTIONS    
  

        5.1  Option Price. The price per share of the shares subject to each Option granted to Employees and Consultants shall be set
by the Committee; provided, however, that such price shall be no less than the par value of a share of Common Stock, unless otherwise permitted by applicable state law, and (a) in the case of
Options intended to qualify as performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, such price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of
Common Stock on the date the Option is granted; (b) in the case of Incentive Stock Options, such price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the
date the Option is granted (or the date the Option is modified, extended or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code); (c) in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to an
individual then owning (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Subsidiary or parent
corporation thereof (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code), such price shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date the Option is granted
(or the date the Option is modified, extended or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code). 

        5.2  Option Term. The term of an Option granted to an Employee or Consultant shall be set by the Committee in its discretion;
provided, however, that, in the case of Incentive Stock Options, the term shall not be more than ten (10) years from the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted, or five (5) years
from such date if the Incentive Stock Option is granted to an individual then owning (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company or any Subsidiary or parent corporation thereof (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code). Except as limited by requirements of Section 422 of the
Code and regulations and rulings thereunder applicable to Incentive Stock Options, the Committee may extend the term of any outstanding Option in connection with any Termination of Employment or
Termination of Consultancy of the Optionee, or amend any other term or condition of such Option relating to such a termination.

        5.3  Option Vesting.

        (a)  The
period during which the right to exercise, in whole or in part, an Option granted to an Employee or a Consultant vests in the Optionee shall be set by the Committee
and the Committee may determine that an Option may not be exercised in whole or in part for a specified period after it is granted; provided, however, that, unless the Committee otherwise provides in
the terms of the Option Agreement or otherwise, no Option shall be exercisable by any Optionee who is then subject to
Section 16 of the Exchange Act within the period ending six months and one day after the date the Option is granted. At any time after grant of an Option, the Committee may, in its sole and
absolute discretion and subject to whatever terms and conditions it selects, accelerate the period during which an Option granted to an Employee or Consultant vests. 

        (b)  No
portion of an Option granted to an Employee or Consultant which is unexercisable at Termination of Employment or Termination of Consultancy, as applicable, shall
thereafter become exercisable, except as may be otherwise provided by the Committee either in the Option Agreement or by action of the Committee following the grant of the Option. 

        (c)  To
the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of stock with respect to which "incentive stock options" (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, but
without regard to Section 422(d) of the Code) are exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other incentive stock option plans of the
Company and any parent or subsidiary corporation (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) of the Company) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified
Options to the extent required by Section 422 of the Code. The rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted.
For purposes of this Section 5.3(c), the Fair Market Value of stock shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such stock is granted. 

        5.4  Terms of Options Granted to Independent Directors. The Board shall determine the terms and conditions of each
Non-Qualified Stock Option granted to an Independent Director, consistent with the terms of the Plan. 

        5.5  Substitute Awards. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article V to the contrary, in the case of an
Option that is a Substitute Award, the price per share of the shares subject to such Option may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant, provided, that the excess of: 

        (a)  The
aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date such Substitute Award is granted) of the shares subject to the Substitute Award; over 

        (b)  The
aggregate exercise price thereof; 

        does
not exceed the excess of: 

        (c)  The
aggregate fair market value (as of the time immediately preceding the transaction giving rise to the Substitute Award, such fair market value to be determined by the
Committee) of the shares of the predecessor entity that were subject to the grant assumed or substituted for by the Company; over 

        (d)  The
aggregate exercise price of such shares. 

7

  

 
 

ARTICLE VI.
  EXERCISE OF OPTIONS    
  

        6.1  Partial Exercise. An exercisable Option may be exercised in whole or in part. However, an Option shall not be exercisable
with respect to fractional shares and the Administrator may require that, by the terms of the Option, a partial exercise be with respect to a minimum number of shares. 

        6.2  Manner of Exercise. All or a portion of an exercisable Option shall be deemed exercised upon delivery of all of the
following to the Secretary of the Company or his office: 

        (a)  A
written notice complying with the applicable rules established by the Administrator stating that the Option, or a portion thereof, is exercised. The notice shall be
signed by the Optionee or other person then entitled to exercise the Option or such portion of the Option; 

        (b)  Such
representations and documents as the Administrator, in its absolute discretion, deems necessary or advisable to effect compliance with all applicable provisions of
the Securities Act and any other federal or state securities laws or regulations. The Administrator may, in its absolute discretion, also take whatever additional actions it deems appropriate to
effect such compliance including, without limitation, placing legends on share certificates and issuing stop-transfer notices to agents and registrars; 

        (c)  In
the event that the Option shall be exercised pursuant to Section 8.1 by any person or persons other than the Optionee, appropriate proof of the right of such
person or persons to exercise the Option; and 

        (d)  Full
cash payment to the Secretary of the Company for the shares with respect to which the Option, or portion thereof, is exercised. However, the Administrator, may in
its sole discretion (i) allow a delay in payment up to thirty (30) days from the date the Option, or portion thereof, is exercised; (ii) allow payment, in whole or in part,
through the delivery of shares of Common Stock which have been owned by the Optionee for at least six months, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company with a Fair Market
Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof; (iii) allow payment, in whole or in part, through the surrender of shares of
Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of the Option having a Fair Market Value on the date of Option exercise equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof;
(iv) allow payment, in whole or in part, through the delivery of property of any kind which constitutes good and valuable consideration; (v) allow payment, in whole or in part, through
the delivery of a full recourse promissory note bearing interest (at no less than such rate as shall then preclude the imputation of interest under the Code) and payable upon such terms as may be
prescribed by the Committee or the Board; (vi) allow payment, in whole or in part, through the delivery of a notice that the Optionee has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect
to shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of the Option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of
the Option exercise price; or (vii) allow payment through any combination of the consideration provided in the foregoing subparagraphs (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi). In the case of a
promissory note, the Administrator may also prescribe the form of such note and the security to be given for such note. The Option may not be exercised, however, by delivery of a promissory note or by
a loan from the Company when or where such loan or other extension of credit is prohibited by law. 

8

 

        6.3  Conditions to Issuance of Stock Certificates. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or
certificates for shares of stock purchased upon the exercise of any Option or portion thereof prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: 

        (a)  The
admission of such shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such class of stock is then listed; 

        (b)  The
completion of any registration or other qualification of such shares under any state or federal law, or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; 

        (c)  The
obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be
necessary or advisable; 

        (d)  The
lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the Option as the Committee (or Board, in the case of Options granted to Independent Directors) may
establish from time to time for reasons of administrative convenience; and 

        (e)  The
receipt by the Company of full payment for such shares, including payment of any applicable withholding tax, which in the discretion of the Committee or the Board
may be in the form of consideration used by the Optionee to pay for such shares under Section 6.2(d). 

        6.4  Rights as Stockholders. Optionees shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, stockholders of the Company
in respect of any shares purchasable upon the exercise of any part of an Option unless and until certificates representing such shares have been issued by the Company to such Optionees. 

        6.5  Ownership and Transfer Restrictions. The Administrator, in its absolute discretion, may impose such restrictions on the
ownership and transferability of the shares purchasable upon the exercise of an Option as it deems appropriate. Any such restriction shall be set forth in the respective Option Agreement and may be
referred to on the certificates evidencing such shares. The Committee may require the Employee to give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired by exercise of an
Incentive Stock Option within (i) two years from the date of granting (including the date the Option is modified, extended or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code) such
Option to such Employee or (ii) one year after the transfer of such shares to such Employee. The Committee may direct that the certificates evidencing shares acquired by exercise of any such
Option refer to such requirement to give prompt notice of disposition. 

        6.6  Additional Limitations on Exercise of Options. Optionees may be required to comply with any timing or other restrictions
with respect to the settlement or exercise of an Option, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the discretion of the Administrator. 

 
 

ARTICLE VII.
  ADMINISTRATION    
  

        7.1  Compensation Committee. Except as may otherwise be determined by the Board in its sole discretion, the Compensation
Committee (or another committee or a subcommittee of the Board assuming the functions of the Committee under the Plan) shall have at least two Independent Directors appointed by and holding office at
the pleasure of the Board, each of whom is both a "non-employee director" as defined by Rule 16b-3 and an "outside director" for purposes of Section 162(m) of the
Code. To the extent any Options are to be granted to any Section 162(m) Participant, such grants shall be approved by a subcommittee of the Compensation Committee composed solely of two or more
"outside directors" as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder. 

9

 

Appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment. Committee members may resign at any time by delivering written notice to the Board. Vacancies in the Committee may
be filled by the Board. 

        7.2  Duties and Powers of Committee. It shall be the duty of the Committee to conduct the general administration of the Plan
in accordance with its provisions. The Committee shall have the power to interpret the Plan and the agreements pursuant to which Options are granted or awarded, and to adopt such rules for the
administration, interpretation, and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the full Board, acting by a
majority of its members in office, shall conduct the general administration of the Plan with respect to Options granted to Independent Directors. The terms of Options need not be the same with respect
to each Optionee. Any such interpretations and rules with respect to Incentive Stock Options shall be consistent with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. In its absolute discretion, the
Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee under the Plan except with respect to matters which under Rule 16b-3 or
Section 162(m) of the Code, or any regulations or rules issued thereunder, are required to be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. 

        7.3  Majority Rule; Unanimous Written Consent. The Committee shall act by a majority of its members in attendance at a meeting
at which a quorum is present or by a memorandum or other written instrument signed by all members of the Committee. 

        7.4  Compensation; Professional Assistance; Good Faith Actions. Members of the Committee shall receive such compensation,if
any, for their services as members as may be determined by the Board. All expenses and liabilities which members of the Committee incur in connection with the administration of the Plan shall be borne
by the Company. The Committee may, with the approval of the Board, employ attorneys, consultants, accountants, appraisers, brokers, or other persons. The Committee, the Company and the Company's
officers and Directors shall be entitled to rely upon the advice, opinions or valuations of any such persons. All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee or the
Board in good faith shall be final and binding upon all Optionees, the Company and all other interested persons. No members of the Committee or Board shall be personally liable for any action,
determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or Options, and all members of the Committee and the Board shall be fully protected by the Company in respect of any such
action, determination or interpretation. 

        7.5  Delegation of Authority to Grant Options. The Committee may, but need not, delegate from time to time some or all of its
authority to grant Options under the Plan to a committee consisting of one or more members of the Committee or of one or more officers of the Company; provided, however, that the Committee may not
delegate its authority to grant Options to individuals (a) who are subject on the date of the grant to the reporting rules under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, (b) who are
Section 162(m) Participants, or (c) who are officers of the Company who are delegated authority by the Committee hereunder. Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions
and limits that the Committee specifies at the time of such delegation of authority and may be rescinded at any time by the Committee. At all times, any committee appointed under this
Section 7.5 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Committee. 

 
 

ARTICLE VIII.
  MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS    
  

        8.1  Transferability of Options.

10

 

        (a)  Except
as otherwise provided in Section 8.1(b): 

        (i)    No
Option under the Plan may be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, subject to the
consent of the Committee, pursuant to a QDRO, unless and until such Option has been exercised, or the shares underlying such Option have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such shares
have lapsed; 

        (ii)  No
Option or interest or right therein shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the Optionee or his successors in interest or shall be subject to
disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy,
attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that
such disposition is permitted by the preceding subsection (i); and 

        (iii)  During
the lifetime of the Optionee, only he may exercise an Option (or any portion thereof) granted to him under the Plan, unless it has been disposed of pursuant to
a QDRO; after the death of the Optionee, any exercisable portion of an Option may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under the Plan or the applicable Option Agreement, be
exercised by his personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Optionee's will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution. 

        (b)  Notwithstanding
Section 8.1(a), the Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit an Optionee to transfer a Non-Qualified Stock Option to
any one or more Permitted Transferees (as defined below), subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) a Non-Qualified Stock Option transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall
not be assignable or transferable by the Permitted Transferee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; (ii) any Non-Qualified Stock Option which is transferred to
a Permitted Transferee shall continue to be subject to all the terms and
conditions of the Non-Qualified Stock Option as applicable to the original Optionee (other than the ability to further transfer the Non-Qualified Stock Option); and
(iii) the Optionee and the Permitted Transferee shall execute any and all documents requested by the Administrator, including, without limitation documents to (A) confirm the status of
the transferee as a Permitted Transferee, (B) satisfy any requirements for an exemption for the transfer under applicable federal and state securities laws and (C) evidence the transfer.
For purposes of this Section 8.1(b), "Permitted Transferee" shall mean, with respect to an Optionee, any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse,
sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law,
brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the Optionee's household (other than a tenant or employee), a
trust in which these persons have more than fifty percent of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which these persons (or the Optionee) control the management of assets, and any other entity in
which these persons (or the Optionee) own more than fifty percent of the voting interests, or any other transferee specifically approved by the Administrator after taking into account any state or
federal tax or securities laws applicable to transferable Non-Qualified Stock Options. 

        8.2  Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.2, the Plan may
be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Board or the Committee. However, without approval of the Company's stockholders
given within twelve months before or after the action by the Board or the Committee, no action of the Board or the Committee may, except as provided in Section 8.3, increase the limits imposed
in Section 2.1 on the maximum number of shares which may be 

11

 

issued under the Plan. No amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Optionee alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Option theretofore granted or
awarded, unless the Option itself otherwise expressly so provides. No Options may be granted or awarded during any period of suspension or after termination of the Plan, and in no event may any
Incentive Stock Option be granted under the Plan after the first to occur of the following events: 

        (a)  The
expiration of ten years from the date the Plan is adopted by the Board; or 

        (b)  The
expiration of ten years from the date the Plan is approved by the Company's stockholders under Section 8.4. 

        8.3  Changes in Common Stock or Assets of the Company, Acquisition or Liquidation of the Company, Change in Control and Other Corporate
Events.

        (a)  Subject
to Section 8.3(d), in the event that the Administrator determines that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock,
other securities, or other property), recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off,
combination, repurchase, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or exchange of Common Stock or
other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event, in the
Administrator's sole discretion, affects the Common Stock such that an adjustment is determined by the Administrator to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or
potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to an Option, then the Administrator shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of: 

        (i)    The
number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) with respect to which Options may be granted or awarded (including, but not limited to,
adjustments of the limitations in Section 2.1 on the maximum number and kind of shares which may be issued and adjustments of the Award Limit); 

        (ii)  The
number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Options; and 

        (iii)  The
grant or exercise price with respect to any Option. 

        (b)  Subject
to Section 8.3(d), in the event of any transaction or event described in Section 8.3(a) or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events
affecting the Company, any affiliate of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, the
Administrator, in its sole and absolute discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Option or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such
transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Optionee's request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such
action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Option, to facilitate such
transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles: 

        (i)    To
provide for either the purchase of any such Option for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been attained upon the exercise of such Option or
realization of the Optionee's rights had such Option been currently exercisable or payable or fully vested or the replacement of such Option with other rights or property selected by the Administrator
in its sole discretion; 

12

 

        (ii)  To
provide that the Option cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after such event; 

        (iii)  To
provide that such Option shall be exercisable as to all shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in (i) Section 5.3 or 5.4 or
(ii) the provisions of the applicable Option Agreement; 

        (iv)  To
provide that such Option be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options,
rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices; and 

        (v)  To
make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Options and/or in the terms and conditions
of (including the exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Options or Options which may be granted in the future. 

        (c)  Subject
to Section 8.3(d) and 8.8, the Administrator may, in its discretion, include such further provisions and limitations in any Option, agreement or
certificate, as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company. 

        (d)  With
respect to Options which are granted to Section 162(m) Participants and are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under
Section 162(m)(4)(C), no adjustment or action described in this Section 8.3 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would
cause such Option to fail to so qualify under Section 162(m)(4)(C), or any successor provisions thereto. No adjustment or action described in this Section 8.3 or in any other provision
of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause the Plan to violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code. Furthermore, no such adjustment or action shall be
authorized to the extent such adjustment or action would result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16 or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 unless the
Administrator determines that the Option is not to comply with such exemptive conditions. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to any Option shall always be rounded to the next whole number. 

        (e)  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that the Company becomes a party to a transaction that is intended to qualify for "pooling of interest" accounting treatment
and, but for one or more of the provisions of this Plan or any Option Agreement would so qualify, then this Plan and any Option Agreement shall be interpreted so as to preserve such accounting
treatment, and to the extent that any provision of the Plan or any Option Agreement would disqualify the transaction from pooling of interests accounting treatment (including, if applicable, an entire
Option Agreement), then such provision shall be null and void. All determinations to be made in connection with the preceding sentence shall be made by the independent accounting firm whose opinion
with respect to "pooling of interests" treatment is required as a condition to the Company's consummation of such transaction. 

        8.4  Approval of Plan by Stockholders. The Plan will be submitted for the approval of the Company's stockholders within twelve
months after the date of the Board's initial adoption of the Plan. Options may be granted or awarded prior to such stockholder approval, provided that such Options shall not be
exercisable nor shall such Options vest prior to the time when the Plan is approved by the stockholders, and provided further that if such approval has not been obtained at the end of said
twelve-month period, all Options previously granted or awarded under the Plan shall thereupon be canceled and become null and void. 

        8.5  Tax Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to require payment in cash or deduction from other compensation payable to
each Optionee of any sums required by federal, state or local tax law to 

13

 

be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Option. The Administrator may in its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow such Optionee to
elect to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under such Option (or allow the return of shares of Common Stock) having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to
be withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the number of shares of Common Stock which may be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Option in
order to satisfy the Optionee's federal and state income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of the Option shall be limited to the number of shares
which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax
income and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income. 

        8.6  Loans. The Committee may, in its discretion, extend one or more loans to key Employees in connection with the exercise or
receipt of an Option. The terms and conditions of any such loan shall be set by the Committee. 

        8.7  Forfeiture Provisions. Pursuant to its general authority to determine the terms and conditions applicable to Options, the
Administrator shall have the right (to the extent consistent with the applicable exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3) to provide, in the terms of an Option Agreement, or to require
an Optionee to agree by separate written instrument, that (i) any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by the Optionee upon any receipt or exercise of
the Option, or upon the receipt or resale of any Common Stock underlying the Option, must be paid to the Company, and (ii) the Option shall terminate and any unexercised portion of the Option
(whether or not vested) shall be forfeited, if (a) a Termination of Employment, Termination of Consultancy or Termination of Directorship occurs prior to a specified date, or within a specified
time period following receipt or exercise of the Option, or (b) the Optionee at any time, or during a specified time period, engages in any activity in competition with the Company, or which is
inimical, contrary or harmful to the interests of the Company, as further defined by the Committee (or the Board, as applicable) or the Optionee incurs a Termination of Employment, Termination of
Consultancy or Termination of Directorship for cause. 

        8.8  Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons and Performance-Based Compensation. Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Option granted or awarded to any individual who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set
forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the
application of such exemptive rule. To the
extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Options granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule. Furthermore,
notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any Option which is granted to a Section 162(m) Participant and is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation as described in
Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code (including any amendment to Section 162(m) of the Code) or
any regulations or rulings issued thereunder that are requirements for qualification as performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, and the Plan shall be
deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements. 

        8.9  Effect of Plan Upon Options and Compensation Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or
incentive plans in effect for the Company or any Subsidiary. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company (i) to establish any other forms of incentives or
compensation for Employees, Directors or Consultants of the Company or any Subsidiary or (ii) to grant or assume options or other rights or awards otherwise than under the Plan in connection
with any proper corporate purpose including but not by way of limitation, the grant or assumption of 

14

 

options in connection with the acquisition by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the business, stock or assets of any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, firm or
association. 

        8.10Compliance with Laws. The Plan, the granting and vesting of Options under the Plan and the issuance and delivery of
shares of Common Stock and the payment of money under the Plan or under Options granted or awarded hereunder are subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations
(including but not limited to state and federal securities law and federal margin requirements) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of
counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions, and the person acquiring such securities
shall, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal
requirements. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Options granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and
regulations. 

        8.11Titles. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or
construction of the Plan. 

        8.12Governing Law. The Plan and any agreements hereunder shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the internal
laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of laws thereof.
