                                                                    ------------

                                   Agreement

     Medarex, Inc. and GenPharm International (Medarex, Inc. and GenPharm
     International are referred to hereinafter as "Provider") agree to provide
     Immuno-Designed Molecules S.A., ("Recipient") with certain research
     material requested by Recipient for use, subject to the terms and
     conditions set forth in this Agreement (the "Agreement"). Provider
     (collectively on the one hand) and Recipient (on the other hand) are each
     referred to herein singularly as a "Party" and collectively as the
     "Parties" to this Agreement.

     1.   This Agreement applies to the transfer by Provider to Recipient of
          transgenic mice ("Mice") and to any biological materials (including
          human and murine antibodies and immunized Mice) derived from the
          Recipient's use of those Mice hereunder (collectively, the "Derived
          Material"). The Mice and the Derived Materials are referred to herein
          collectively as the "Materials". Recipient shall use the Mice solely
          for purposes of conducting research expected to result in Derived
          Materials (and data, results and information relating thereto),
          [*****]. The Research is expected to include the immunization of the
          Mice with antigens supplied by Recipient (each an "Antigen"), and any
          such antigens or other materials provided or used by Recipient for
          purposes of the Research are referred to herein collectively as the
          "Recipient Materials". Recipient shall be under no obligation to
          disclose the nature of or provide any Recipient Materials to Provider.

     2.   Legal title to all Mice shall be and remain solely with Provider, and
          nothing in this Agreement grants Recipient any rights under any
          patents or patent applications of Provider. Recipient shall not
          transfer the mice. Recipient will use the Mice solely for the purposes
          contemplated under this Agreement, and in no event will attempt to
          breed or duplicate in any way the Mice provided to Recipient by
          Provider hereunder. Any information of Provider that is disclosed to
          Recipient by Provider in connection with the transfer of the Mice or
          the Research hereunder shall be used by Recipient solely for the
          purposes of Research, and shall be held in confidence by Recipient
          subject to the terms and conditions of Schedule A ("Confidentiality
          Provisions"). Legal title to any and all Recipient Materials shall be
          and remain solely with Recipient, and nothing in this Agreement grants
          Provider any rights under any patents or patent applications of
          Recipient. Any information of Recipient

          relating to any Recipient Materials that is disclosed to Provider by
          Recipient shall not be used by Provider for any purpose, and shall be
          held in confidence by Provider subject to the terms and conditions of
          the Schedule A.

     3.   [*****] Recipient shall be under no obligation to provide any such
          Derived Materials to Provider. During the Materials Term (as
          hereinafter defined), Recipient shall not make any use of any such
          Derived Materials except for purposes of the Research, and thereafter
          Recipient shall not make any use of the Derived Materials, shall not
          transfer any Derived Materials to any third party, and shall not file
          any patent applications covering any Derived Materials or based on the
          Research without Provider's prior written consent, [*****]. Upon
          expiration or termination of the Materials Term, unless the Parties
          have entered into a definitive agreement, Recipient shall return or
          destroy the Mice and destroy all Derived Materials; provided, however,
          that legal title to any data, research results or other information
          relating to the Derived Materials shall be and remain with Recipient,
          but such shall be treated as confidential information and shall be
          held in confidence by Recipient subject to the terms and conditions of
          Schedule A. Recipient shall be under no obligation to disclose any
          such data, research results or other information to Provider, but if
          and to the extent that Recipient does make any such disclosure, any
          such information of Recipient disclosed to Provider by Recipient shall
          not be used by Provider for any purpose and shall be held in
          confidence by Provider subject to the terms and conditions of the
          Schedule A.

     4.   The transfer of the Mice constitutes a nonexclusive license to use the
          Mice solely for the purposes of the Research. This Agreement does not
          restrict Provider's right to distribute the Mice to other commercial
          or to non-commercial entities. Provider shall have no obligation to
          grant a license to Recipient, and may grant exclusive or nonexclusive
          licenses to others who may be investigating uses of the Mice.

     5.   The Mice are provided to Recipient to conduct experiments in animals
          or in vitro. The Materials will not be used in humans, including for
          purposes of diagnostic testing.

     6.   During the Materials Term and thereafter until the return or
          destruction of the Mice and destruction of the Derived Materials,
          written records will be maintained by Recipient of all uses made of,
          and all persons allowed access to Materials, and copies of such
          records will be furnished to Provider as

          confidential information of Recipient subject to the terms and
          conditions of Schedule A.

     7.   The Materials are experimental in nature and shall be used with
          prudence and appropriate caution, since not all of the characteristics
          are known. THE MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF
          MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR ANY OTHER
          WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. PROVIDER MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR
          WARRANTY THAT THE USE OF THE MATERIALS WILL NOT INFRINGE ANY PATENT OR
          OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHT.

     8.   This Agreement shall commence as of December 27, 1999 (the "Effective
          Date"). Except for Schedule A, the term of this Agreement (the
          "Materials Term") shall expire on the date that is [*****] after the
          Effective Date, unless either extended by the Parties by written
          agreement, sooner terminated in accordance herewith or the Parties
          have entered into a definitive agreement. The term of Schedule A shall
          not expire until five (5) years after the Effective Date. Either Party
          may terminate the Materials Term of this Agreement for any reason
          effective thirty (30) days after written notice to the other Party.
          Upon expiration or termination of the Materials Term, unless the
          Parties have entered into a definitive agreement, Recipient shall
          return or destroy the Mice and destroy all Derived Materials, and
          Provider shall return or destroy any Recipient Materials (if any)
          received from Recipient and shall destroy any Derived Materials (if
          any) received from Recipient. The Parties anticipate that the
          definitive agreement will have a term of [*****].

     9.   If Recipient provides written notice to Provider of the identity of
          the Antigen for which Derived Materials have been obtained by
          Recipient, unless Provider has previously granted a third party rights
          to use the Mice with respect to such Antigen or has commenced or has
          the intent to commence an active research program on its own behalf
          with respect to such Antigen, as shown by written records, during the
          Materials Term Recipient shall have a right of first negotiation to
          obtain a commercial license from Provider with respect to the Derived
          Materials specific for such Antigen. During the Materials Term, if
          Recipient provides such notice and either a third party notifies
          Provider that such third party wishes to acquire a commercial license
          to antibodies directed against such Antigen or Provider wishes to
          commercialize antibodies against such Antigen itself, Provider shall
          notify Recipient; however, Provider shall not be obligated to identify
          such party,

          whether Provider or a third party. If Recipient has not notified
          Provider within ten (10) business days of such Provider's notice that
          Recipient will enter a definitive agreement with Provider for a non-
          exclusive commercial license for the Derived Materials on the terms
          set forth on Schedule B, or if Recipient and Provider have failed to
          enter into a definitive license agreement consistent with such terms
          within ninety (90) days from the date of Provider's notice to
          Recipient, then Recipient's right of first negotiation shall terminate
          with respect to the Derived Materials and the related Antigen. In any
          such case, Provider may grant one or more third parties commercial
          licenses with respect to antibodies specific for the applicable
          Antigen, or conduct commercialization of such antibodies itself.

     10.  In no event shall Provider be liable for any use by Recipient of the
          Materials or for any loss, claim, damage, or liability, of any kind or
          nature, that may arise from or in connection with this Agreement or
          the use, handling, or storage of the Materials. The Recipient agrees
          to indemnify and hold harmless Provider and Provider's officers,
          agents, and employees from any liability, loss, or damage they may
          suffer as a result of claims, demands, costs, or judgments against
          them arising out of the use and disposition of the Materials by the
          Recipient, except insofar as such liability arises out of the
          negligence or wrongdoing of Provider or its officers, agents or
          employees.

     11.  Recipient will use the Materials in compliance with all laws,
          governmental regulations and guidelines, including without limitation
          current NIH guidelines and any regulations or guidelines pertaining to
          research with recombinant DNA that may be applicable to the Materials.

     12.  Provider and Recipient agree in principal, subject to the terms of a
          definitive agreement, for Provider to license to Recipient on a non-
          exclusive basis the right to develop and commercialize Medarex's in-
          licensed anti-CTLA-4 intellectual property, technology and Provider's
          anti-CTLA-4 human antibody in connection with cellular vaccines and
          cellular therapy. The terms of such license will [*****] include
          milestone payments, beginning upon [*****], equal to [*****] and
          royalties equal to [*****]. To the extent that Recipient may develop
          patents or patent applications on the use of anti-CTLA-4 antibodies in
          connection with cellular vaccines or cellular therapy, Recipient and
          Provider agree that Provider will have the right to out-license the
          relevant patents and patent applications to potential licensees,
          [*****].

                         HuMAb-Mouse /(TM)/ Technology

     The Collaboration

     Medarex proposes to make the HuMAb-Mouse technology available to Immuno-
     Designed Molecules S.A. to create antibodies for an antigen, or antigens,
     of Immuno-Designed Molecules S.A. choice.

     Demonstration Project

     Medarex offers a free demonstration project to allow to work with the HuMAb
     mice and develop a pool of high affinity, human antibodies for [*****]
     antigens. The exact number of mice needed is to be determined. At Immuno-
     Designed Molecules S.A.'s option, Medarex will perform immunizations,
     derive hybridomas and characterize the resulting antibodies, using Immuno-
     Designed Molecules S.A.'s antigen and assays, for a fee of [*****] per
     antigen. Medarex can also develop assays, at a price to be determined.

     Research License

     Following the demonstration project, if Immuno-Designed Molecules S.A.
     chooses to enter into a business collaboration, for a fee of [*****] per
     antigen target, Medarex will grant a research license on a non-exclusive
     basis for a [*****] period to allow Immuno-Designed Molecules S.A. to
     evaluate the human antibodies to the antigen. This license may be renewed
     for an additional fee of [*****] per antigen target for [*****].

     Commercial License

     An exclusive commercial license for the antibodies created by Immuno-
     Designed Molecules will be granted for a fee of [*****] per antigen. If the
     commercial license is obtained during the research license renewal period,
     the renewal fee will be pro-rated and credited against the commercial
     license fee. Immuno-Designed Molecules S.A. may proceed directly to the
     commercial license for a target antigen without obtaining a research
     license first. Commercial licenses are subject to availability.

partnering deal with a corporate partner or customer whose headquarters is
located in the Medarex Territory.

     (f)  Notwithstanding (d) or (e) above, Medarex and Kirin and their
corporate partners or customers are free to produce, market, promote and sell
any antibody product derived from the mice worldwide.

     (g)  [*****].

     (h)  In addition, both parties agree that each party may advertise its
technology, including publishing papers regarding its technology and presenting
its technology at conferences, anywhere in the world.  In the event that such
activities give rise to inquiries from potential corporate partners or customers
in the other party's territory, the first party will respond to any such inquiry
and indicate that the other party is its sole licensee with respect to such
potential corporate partner or customer.  [*****].

3.   Target Information

     (a)  Medarex shall institute a mechanism whereby Medarex will notify its
partners by written documentation of the availability or non-availability of
targets.  If Kirin asks about the availability of a target and Medarex has
licensed the target to a third party Medarex shall send Kirin a copy of the
aforementioned documentation with the name of the partner redacted.

     (b)  The identity of targets chosen by Medarex or Kirin and its corporate
partners is confidential.  In particular, because of confidentiality constraints
imposed upon Medarex under agreement with corporate partners existing as of the
Effective Date, Medarex cannot disclose to Kirin the identity of targets chosen
by such partners.

     (c)  Notwithstanding the above, in recognition of equal partnership between
the parties, Medarex during the term of this Agreement, shall disclose to Kirin
the target identity of Medarex' and Medarex Affiliates' existing and future
internal projects.  For purposes of this Section 3(c), the term "Medarex
Affiliate" shall mean any corporation or other business entity controlled by,
controlling or under common control with Medarex, and the term "control" shall
mean direct or

indirect beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the voting stock or equity, or
more than 50% interest in the income of such corporation or other business
entity; provided that, if local law requires a minimum percentage of local
ownership, control will be established by direct or indirect beneficial
ownership of 100% of the maximum ownership percentage that may, under such local
law, be owned by foreign interests. Furthermore, Medarex shall use its
reasonable efforts to obtain the permission of its partners partnered after the
Effective Date to disclose the identity of targets chosen by such partners as
further defined in Sections 14(b) and (c) below.

     (d)  Medarex acknowledges that Kirin will need to know whether a specific
target is available for Kirin's in-house projects or for collaboration with
potential corporate partners. Therefore, Kirin may ask Medarex if a specific
target is available for licensing, to which Medarex will respond in a timely
manner.  [*****]  If Kirin inquires about the availability of a specific target
from Medarex for Kirin's in-house development activities, a positive response
from Medarex will [*****].  Kirin may, however, inquire about the availability
of [*****] for Kirin's in-house development without having to designate those
three targets as in-house project targets.

4.   Target List Designation

     (a)  A list of targets designated by Kirin for in-house development,
subject to availability, will be maintained (the "Target List") and limited, at
all times, to [*****] agreed upon targets (the "List Limitation"). Kirin, in
year 2000, may designate, subject to availability, [*****] targets to be put on
the Target List. Subsequently, Kirin will be permitted to add up to [*****]
targets per calendar year to the Target List subject to the List Limitation. If
a third party requests rights to a target from Medarex, as evidenced by written
documentation (the identity of the party does not have to be disclosed to
Kirin), and such target is on the Target List, Kirin shall have a first right to
designate such target as a [*****] as described below.

     (b)  Kirin may designate up to [*****] available targets from the Target
List as "in-house project" targets, [*****] milestone payments, subject [*****]
obligations set forth in Section 8 below [*****].  An "in-house project" is a
project in which (i) substantially all of the research and development effort
comes from Kirin's internal research assets or, (ii) Kirin has entered into a
collaborative research and development effort in exchange for substantial
commercialization rights. Substantial commercialization rights should include at
least [*****].  For purposes of this Agreement, [*****] shall mean the [*****].

     (c)  Rights to [*****] will accrue to Kirin, alternately, [*****] in one
year and [*****] in the next year, accruing at the beginning of each calendar
year until Kirin will have accumulated a total of [*****] opportunities.  Kirin
will have the right to substitute a new target from the Target List for an
existing [*****], but the total number of such substitutions may not exceed more
than [*****] during the term of this Agreement.  Any such substitution must
occur prior to [*****] after the commencement of Phase [*****] clinical trials
and will require payment of $[*****] to Medarex

SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT

                                       4

at the time of the substitution request. If a third party requests rights to a
target from Medarex, as evidenced by written documentation (the identity of the
party does not have to be disclosed to Kirin), and such target is on the Target
List and Kirin designates such target as a [*****], such [*****] will not be
eligible for substitution except as otherwise indicated in this Section 4(c)
below. In addition, Kirin will be required to develop such a [*****] through the
IND filing stage (or its equivalent) unless Kirin provides scientific evidence
to Medarex that demonstrates that continued development of such [*****] is not
feasible. If, in Medarex' reasonable judgment, based upon Kirin's scientific
evidence obtained prior to commencement of Phase [*****] clinical trials,
continued clinical development of such a [*****] is not feasible, Kirin, after
paying Medarex [*****], may substitute a new target from the Target List for
such failed [*****]. In any such case, upon Medarex' request, Kirin will grant
to Medarex, at no cost other than provided below to Medarex, a right and license
under any and all intellectual property owned or otherwise controlled by Kirin,
including without limitation a right to use know-how and data, necessary or
useful for development of the failed [*****]. If Medarex decides to continue the
development of such failed [*****] and eventually commercializes a product based
on that Target, Medarex will reimburse Kirin the [*****] substitution fee.

     (d)  In addition to [*****] opportunities, Kirin will have an unlimited
(subject to the List Limitation) number of [*****] target opportunities, subject
to [*****] obligations set forth in Sections [*****] and [*****] below ("[*****]
Targets").  Not withstanding the above, once Kirin has paid to Medarex the
[*****] commercialization fee for a [*****] Target as set forth in this Section
4(d), such [*****] Target shall no longer be considered a target subject to the
List Limitation.  As a result, Kirin may have more than a total of [*****] in-
house targets at any time; provided, however, that the total of all [*****]
Targets and all [*****] Targets for which a commercialization fee has not been
paid does not exceed [*****].  Further, once a target has been commercialized in
any major country, that target shall be deleted from the Target List and an
additional target may be added to the Target List, which may be either a [*****]
Target or [*****] Target if Kirin has any remaining [*****] Targets available in
accordance with the above.

5.   Target Designation and Fee Target Commercialization Fee

     (a)  Within [*****] after the date that a target is included on the Target
List, Kirin shall designate whether such target is a [*****] Target or a [*****]
Target, or whether such target is of no further interest to Kirin.  Kirin may
extend its decision to designate any target on the Target List for [*****] by
providing, within 30 days prior to the date on which a target is to be
designated as either a [*****] Target or a [*****] Target, (i) written notice to
Medarex of such extension and (ii) payment to Medarex via wire transfer of a fee
equal to [*****].

     (b)  If Kirin designates a target as a [*****] Target, Kirin shall use one
of the accumulated [*****] Target Rights allocated to Kirin pursuant to Section
4(b) above.  Kirin may only use [*****] Target Rights that have accrued to Kirin
at the time of designation.  A target

[*****] below; provided, however that Kirin, at any time, may redesignate a
[*****] Target as a [*****] Target if Kirin has available previously unused
[*****] Target Rights to do so.

     (d)  If Kirin designates a target as a target in which Kirin has no further
interest, Kirin will have no further right or license with respect to such
target and Medarex shall have no obligation to Kirin regarding such target.
However, if Kirin later decides to resume the development of such target and if,
and only if, such target is still available, Kirin may designate such target as
a [*****] Target or a [*****] Target subject to the List Limitation.

6.   [*****] Milestones

     (a)  [*****]

     (b)  Each milestone payment shall be made to Medarex within 30 days after
the date of the achievement of the corresponding milestone set forth in the
table in this Section 6(a).

     (c)  No milestone payment shall be applied to or otherwise credited against
any other payment which may be due to Medarex under this Agreement.

     (d)  Before a milestone applicable to the second [*****] Target, or any
subsequent [*****] Target, pursuant to Section 6(a) would apply, all milestones
due with respect to previous [*****] Targets must be paid.  For example, if a
product attributed to the first [*****] Target has achieved all milestone events
up to [*****], and a product attributed to the [*****] milestone would be
payable to Medarex with respect to the [*****] Target.  If the first Target
subsequently receives a [*****] milestone would be payable to Medarex.

7.   [*****]

For purposes of this Agreement, "Net Sales" shall mean the gross amount invoiced
by Kirin, its affiliates and sublicensees to third parties on all sales of
products attributed to targets selected by Kirin in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, less (i) discounts actually allowed, (ii) credits for claims,
allowances, retroactive price reductions or returned goods, (iii) prepaid
freight, and (iv) sales taxes or other governmental charges actually paid in
connection with sales of such products. For purposes of determining Net Sales, a
sale shall be deemed to have occurred on the earlier of generation of an invoice
therefor or shipment of the product for delivery.  The gross amount from sales
of products by Kirin, or an affiliate or sublicensee of Kirin to any affiliate
or sublicensee which is a reseller of such products shall be excluded from Net
Sales; provided that the gross amount from the subsequent sale of such products
by such affiliates or sublicensees of Kirin to unrelated parties shall be
included in Net Sales hereunder.

     (a)  In addition to [*****] as set forth in Section 7(a) above, Kirin shall
bear the [*****], if applicable, with respect to products attributed to [*****]
Targets designated by Kirin under this Agreement.

          (iii)  Notwithstanding Sections 10(e)(i) and (ii) above, Medarex will
     receive [*****] of the partnering payments received by Medarex from Special
     Licensees corresponding to milestone payments for use of Kirin Mice and,
     subject to Section 10(d) whereby Kirin will forego receipt of a portion of
     payments for the period defined in such Section 10(d), Kirin will receive
     [*****] of such payments.

          (iv)   Kirin will receive [*****] of partnering payments received from
     its partners in the Kirin Territory and [*****] of royalties received from
     its partners based on sales in the Kirin Territory for use of Medarex Mice
     and Medarex will receive [*****] of such payments.  However, in case
     Medarex has a special relationship with such a potential corporate partner
     or customer in the Kirin Territory and has entered into agreement with such
     party in accordance with Section 2(d) above, Medarex will receive [*****]
     of such payments.

          (v)    Except as otherwise provided in Section 10(e)(iii), payments
     received from partners will be allocated between Kirin and Medarex based
     upon whether such payments originated from the Kirin Territory or the
     Medarex Territory.  "Originated" shall mean (1) in the case of partnering
     payments, paid by corporate partners or customers whose headquarters is
     located in each Territory, and (2) in the case of royalties, based on the
     sales of products in each Territory.

11.  Payment of Royalties, Records and Audit Rights

     (a)  Within 90 days after the first day of each calendar quarter after the
first commercial sale of a product, Kirin shall pay to Medarex earned royalties
due and payable to Medarex pursuant to Sections [*****] and [*****] for the
just-ended calendar quarter.

     (b)  At the same time as each earned royalty payment is made to Medarex,
Kirin shall furnish to Medarex a detailed written report of Net Sales of each
product subject to the payment of earned royalties hereunder, and the
calculation of the earned royalties due and payable thereon, including a
description of any offsets or credits deducted there from, on a product-by-
product and country-by-country basis, for the calendar quarter upon which the
royalty payment is based.

     (c)  Kirin shall keep, and cause its affiliates and sublicensees to keep,
full, complete and proper records and accounts of all sales of products in
sufficient detail to enable the royalties payable on Net Sales of each such
product to be determined.  Medarex shall have the right to appoint an
independent certified public accounting firm to audit the records of Kirin and
its affiliates and sublicensees as necessary to verify the royalties payable
pursuant to this Agreement.  Kirin and its affiliates and sublicensees shall pay
to Medarex an amount equal to any additional royalties to which Medarex is
entitled as disclosed by the audit, plus interest thereon at the rate of 1.5%
per month. Such audit shall be at Medarex' expense; provided, however, that if
the audit discloses that Medarex

                                       9
<PAGE>

was underpaid royalties with respect to any product by 5% or more for any
calendar quarter, then Kirin shall reimburse Medarex for any such audit costs.
Medarex may exercise its right to audit as to each of Kirin and its affiliates
or sublicensees no more frequently than once in any calendar year. The
accounting firm shall disclose to Medarex only information relating to the
accuracy of the royalty payments. Kirin and its affiliates and sublicensees
shall preserve and maintain all such records required for audit for a period of
3 years after the calendar quarter to which the record applies.

     (d)  The remittance of royalties payable on sales outside the United States
shall be payable to Medarex in United States Dollars at the official rate of
exchange of the currency of the country from which the royalties are payable, as
quoted in the United States of America edition of the Wall Street Journal for
the last business day of the calendar quarter in which the royalties are
payable. If the transfer of or the conversion into the United States Dollars of
any such remittance in any such instance is not lawful or possible, the payment
of such part of the royalties as is necessary shall be made by the deposit
thereof, in the currency of the county where the sale was made on which the
royalty was based, to the credit and account of Medarex or its nominee in any
commercial bank or trust company of Medarex' choice located in that country,
prompt written notice of which shall be given by Kirin to Medarex.

12.  Medarex In-House Targets Utilizing Kirin Mice

     The terms and conditions set forth in Sections 4-9 and Section 11 relating
to Kirin's obligations under this Agreement with targets and products will apply
to Medarex with respect to Medarex' in-house use of Kirin Mice in connection
with targets and products, except that (i) the payment required to substitute a
                           ------
new target for an existing [*****] Target set fort in Section 4(c) shall be
$[*****], (ii) all milestone payments payable by Medarex to Kirin with respect
to Medarex' [*****] Targets shall be equal to [*****] the amount set forth in
Section 6(a), and (iii) royalties payable by Medarex to Kirin with respect to
Medarex' [*****] Targets pursuant to Section [*****] shall be [*****] with any
third party royalty, if any, payable by Medarex.

13.  Ex-vivo, Diagnostic or Reagent Use Products

     Kirin and Medarex acknowledge and agree that the milestone and royalty
schedules set forth above are intended to apply to in-vivo therapeutic
applications of products.  The parties also acknowledge and agree that other
non-in vivo applications of products are possible and, in recognition of such
other applications, Kirin and Medarex agree to negotiate in good faith
reasonable fee schedules other than as set forth in Sections 6, 7 and 8 to
pertain to such non in-vivo therapeutic applications of products.

arrangement entered into with a third party after the Effective Date, for the
use of Kirin Mice and Medarex Mice to develop antibody products, terms and
conditions which will allow Kirin or Medarex, as the case may be, [*****].
Kirin and Medarex each agree to provide written notice to the other within 30
days after the effective date of a partnering arrangement.  Kirin and Medarex
each agree not to hold the other liable or bring any legal action against the
other based on any obligation of a party pursuant to this Section 14(c) or the
identity of any target disclosed pursuant to this Section 14(c).

15.  Partner Opportunities

     (a)  Medarex agrees to offer Medarex' corporate partners an opportunity to

17.  Confidentiality

     (a)  Each party shall hold in strict confidence and not use or disclose to
any third party (other than employees, affiliates, consultants and advisors who
are similarly bound in writing) any product, technical, marketing, financial,
business or other information, ideas or know-how identified in writing as
confidential ("Confidential Information") of or used by the other party;
provided, however, that Confidential Information of a party shall not include:

          (i)   Information which at the time of disclosure was previously known
