 Exhibit 4.40 
 CONSENT TO SUBLEASE 
 As of this 31st day of August, 2005, HIGHWOODS REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (the
“Landlord”), BIOSTRATUM, INC. (the “Tenant”) and ADHEREX, INC. (the “Subtenant”) do hereby enter into this Consent to Sublease and Agreement (the “Agreement”). 
 RECITALS 
 WHEREAS, Landlord and Tenant
entered into that certain amended Office Lease dated September 8, 2000 (the “Lease”) for approximately 35,600 rentable square feet of office space in the building commonly known as the Maplewood Building (the “Building”),
located at 4620 Creekstone Drive, Durham County, North Carolina (the “Premises); 
 AND WHEREAS, Tenant and Subtenant have agreed to
that a portion of the Premises (approximately 18,272 rentable square feet) will be assigned to Subtenant effective on January 1, 2006; 
 AND WHEREAS, Tenant and Subtenant have agreed that, as a condition of the assignment, that portion of the Premises being assigned to Subtenant shall be sublet to Subtenant prior to January 1, 2006, and effective on September 1,
2005 and have agreed to enter into a sublease of the Premises in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Sublease”) for the period from September 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005 (the “Sublease Term”); 

NOW THEREFORE, Landlord does hereby consent to the Sublease in the form attached hereto, conditioned upon the agreement by Tenant and Subtenant of
Paragraphs 1 through 12 hereof: 
  

	1.	Tenant shall not be released in any manner from any of its obligations under the Lease. 

  

	2.	During the Sublease Term, Tenant shall continue to pay to Landlord the rent payable by Tenant to Landlord under the Lease. 

  

	3.	The Sublease shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of the Lease and no use or occupancy of the Subleased Premises (as defined in the Sublease) shall be permitted by
Tenant or undertaken by Subtenant that is in any way inconsistent with the terms and provisions of the Lease. Subtenant agrees to comply with all provisions of the Lease, including Section 13 of the Lease, entitled “Insurance
Requirements”, and the requirement that Landlord be named as an additional insured. 

  

	4.	Landlord shall not be obligated to Subtenant under any of the provisions of the Sublease. 

  

	5.	Subtenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims arising out of (a) Subtenant’s use of the Subleased Premises or any part thereof;
(b) any activity, work, or other thing done, permitted or suffered by Subtenant in or about the Subleased Premises or the building, or any part thereof; (c) any breach or default by Subtenant in the performance of any of its obligations
under the Sublease; or (d) any act or negligence of Subtenant, or any officer, agent, employee contractor, servant, invitee or guest of Subtenant; and in each case from and against any and all damages, losses, liabilities, lawsuits, costs and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees at all tribunal levels) arising in connection with any such claim or claims as described in (a) through (d) above or any action brought thereon. If such action is brought against Landlord, Subtenant
upon notice from Landlord 

  

 1 

 shall defend the same through counsel selected by Subtenant’s insurer or other counsel, in each case
acceptable to Landlord. Subtenant assumes all risk of damage or loss to its property or injuries or death to persons in, on, or about the Subleased Premises, from all causes except those for which the law imposes liability on Landlord regardless of
any attempted waiver thereof, and Subtenant hereby waives such claims in respect thereof against Landlord. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Sublease. 
  

	6.	This Agreement shall not be deemed to constitute a consent to any future amendment to the Sublease or sublease (or any future assignment) and each and every such proposed amendment
or future sublease (and any proposed future assignment) shall require the prior written consent of Landlord, which Landlord may not arbitrarily refuse to give. 

  

	7.	If Landlord so elects, the termination of the Lease by lapse of time or as otherwise provided in the Lease shall immediately cause the Sublease to be terminated and have no further
force or effect. 

  

	8.	Landlord is not a party to the Sublease. Therefore, Landlord’s consent to the Sublease shall not constitute its consent to the particular terms and conditions of the Sublease
and Landlord shall not be bound by or obligated to perform any of the terms and conditions of the Sublease. 

  

	9.	Any options provided to Tenant in the Lease shall not be extended to or exercised by Subtenant, except as provided in the Partial Assignment of Lease and Lease Amendment Number Two
entered between Landlord, Tenant and Subtenant as of the even date herewith. 

  

	10.	Effective September 1, 2005 and pursuant to Section 24 of the Lease, the addresses for notice to Tenant and Subtenant are as follows: 

  

			
	 TENANT:
	  	BIOSTRATUM, INC.
		  	 2300 Englert Drive, Suite G

		  	 Attn: Scott Murray, General Counsel

	 Facsimile #:
	  	 919/484-8001

  

	11.	Landlord shall have the right, if Tenant defaults under its obligations to Landlord, to collect all rents directly from Subtenant and apply the net amount collected to rent owed,
but no action by Landlord to collect rent owed from Subtenant shall be deemed a release by Tenant of its obligations under the Lease, nor shall it create a contractual relationship between Subtenant and Landlord or give Subtenant any greater estate
or right to the Premises other than provided by the Sublease. 

  

	12.	To the extent that there may be conflict between the terms of this Consent and the terms of the Sublease, the terms of this Consent shall control.

 EXHIBIT A 
 SUBLEASE 
  

 1FORM OF INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

 Exhibit 10.63 
 INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 
 This Agreement is made as of the      day of March
2006, by and between StockerYale, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the “Corporation), and              (“Indemnitee”), a director and/or officer of the Corporation.

 WHEREAS, it is essential to the Corporation to retain and attract as directors and officers the most capable persons available, and

 WHEREAS, the substantial increase in corporate litigation subjects directors and officers to expensive litigation risks at the same time
that the availability of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance has been severely limited, and 
 WHEREAS, it is now and has
always been the express policy of the Corporation to indemnify its directors and officers so as to provide them with the maximum possible protection permitted by law, and 
 WHEREAS, Indemnitee may not regard the protection available under the Corporation’s Restated Articles of Organization and insurance as adequate in the present circumstances, and may not be willing to serve or
continue to serve as a director or officer without adequate protection, and 
 WHEREAS, the Corporation desires Indemnitee to serve, or
continue to serve, as a director or officer of the Corporation. 
 NOW THEREFORE, the Corporation and Indemnitee do hereby agree as follows:

 1. Agreement to Serve. Indemnitee agrees to serve or continue to serve as a director or officer of the Corporation for so long as
Indemnitee is duly elected or appointed or until such time as Indemnitee tenders Indemnitee’s resignation in writing. 
 2.
Definitions. As used in this Agreement: 
 (a) The term “Proceeding” shall include any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and any claim which could be the subject of a Proceeding. 
 (b) The term “Corporate Status” shall mean the status of a person who is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer,
employee, trustee, partner or other agent of another organization or other enterprise. 
 (c) The term “Expenses” means
(i) all expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred in defense of a Proceeding, in being a witness in a Proceeding, or in successfully seeking indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) such
expenses incurred in connection with a Proceeding initiated by Indemnitee as may be approved by the Board of Directors, and (iii) any judgments, awards, fines or penalties paid by Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding or reasonable amounts
paid in settlement of a Proceeding. 

 (d) References to “other enterprise” shall include employee benefit plans; references to
“fines” shall include any taxes or penalties assessed with respect to any employee benefit plan; references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person
reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation” as referred to in this
Agreement. 
 3. Indemnification in Third-Party Proceedings. Except as limited by law, the Corporation shall indemnify Indemnitee in
accordance with the provisions of this Paragraph 3 if Indemnitee was or is a party to or threatened to be made a party to or otherwise involved in any Proceeding (other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a
judgment in its favor or a Proceeding alleging that Indemnitee received an improper personal benefit) by reason of the Indemnitee’s Corporate Status or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in connection therewith,
against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on his behalf in connection with such Proceeding, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best
interests of the Corporation and, with respect to of any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo
contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and,
with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. 
 4. Indemnification in
Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation. Except as limited by law, the Corporation shall indemnify Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Paragraph 4 if Indemnitee is a party to or threatened to be made a party to or
otherwise involved in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the Indemnitee’s Corporate Status or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in connection
therewith or a Proceeding alleging that Indemnitee received an improper personal benefit, against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on his behalf in connection with such Proceeding, if he acted in good faith and in a
manner which he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made under this Paragraph 4 if Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation
in such Proceeding or, in the absence of such an adjudication, if he is determined to be ineligible for indemnification under the circumstances pursuant to Paragraph 9 of this Agreement; provided, however, that indemnification of Expenses incurred
by Indemnitee in successfully defending a Proceeding alleging that he received an improper personal benefit as a result of his Corporate Status may be paid if and to the extent authorized by the Board of Directors. 
  

 2 

 5. Exceptions to Right of Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, except as set forth in Paragraph 10, the Corporation shall not indemnify the Indemnitee in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Corporation shall not indemnify the Indemnitee to the extent the Indemnitee is reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, and in the event the Corporation
makes any indemnification payments to the Indemnitee and the Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, the Indemnitee shall promptly refund such indemnification payments to the Corporation to the extent of such insurance
reimbursement. 
 6. Indemnification of Expenses of Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the
extent that Indemnitee has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses incurred by him or on his behalf in
connection therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, if any Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein is disposed of, on the merits or otherwise (including a disposition without prejudice), without (i) the disposition being adverse to
the Indemnitee, (ii) an adjudication that the Indemnitee was liable to the Corporation, (iii) a plea of guilty or nolo contendere by the Indemnitee, (iv) an adjudication that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and
in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and (v) with respect to any criminal proceeding, an adjudication that the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful,
the Indemnitee shall be considered for the purposes hereof to have been wholly successful with respect thereto. 
 7. Notification and
Defense of Claim. As a condition precedent to his right to be indemnified, the Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any Proceeding for which indemnity will or could be sought by him and provide the
Corporation with a copy of any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to such Proceeding with which he is served. With respect to any Proceeding of which the Corporation is so notified, the
Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. After notice from the Corporation to the Indemnitee of its
election so to assume such defense, the Corporation shall not be liable to the Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such claim, other than as provided below in this Paragraph 7.
The Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his own counsel in connection with such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of the
Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been authorized by the Corporation, (ii) counsel to the Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest or position on any
significant issue between the Corporation and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action or (iii) the Corporation shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each of which cases the fees and
expenses of counsel for the Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Corporation, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement. The Corporation shall not be entitled, without the consent of the Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any
claim brought by or in the right of the Corporation or as to which counsel for the Indemnitee shall have 
  

 3 

 reasonably made the conclusion provided for in clause (ii) above. The Corporation shall not be required to indemnify
the Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any Proceeding in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee
without Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Corporation nor the Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold their consent to any proposed settlement. If a Proceeding is compromised or settled in a manner which imposes any liability or
obligation upon Indemnitee, (i) no indemnification shall be provided to him with respect to a Proceeding by or in the right of the corporation unless a court having jurisdiction determines that indemnification is reasonable and proper under the
circumstances, and (ii) no indemnification shall be provided to him with respect to any other type of Proceeding if it is determined pursuant to Paragraph 9 of this Agreement on the basis of the circumstances known at that time (without further
investigation) that Indemnitee is ineligible for indemnification. 
 8. Advancement of Expenses. Subject to the provisions of
Paragraph 9 below, in the event that the Corporation does not assume the defense pursuant to Paragraph 7 of this Agreement of any Proceeding to which the Indemnitee was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party by reason of his
Corporate Status or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in connection therewith and of which the Corporation receives notice under this Agreement, any Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee or on his behalf in defending such
Proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding; provided, however, that the payment of such Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee or on his behalf in advance of the final disposition of
such Proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of a written undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Corporation as authorized in this Agreement. Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of the Indemnitee to make repayment. No such advance payment of Expenses shall be made under this Paragraph 8 if it is
determined pursuant to Paragraph 9 of this Agreement on the basis of the circumstances known at that time (without further investigation) that Indemnitee is ineligible for indemnification. 
 9. Procedure for Indemnification. In order to obtain indemnification or advancement of Expenses pursuant to Paragraphs 3, 4, 6 or 8 of this
Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request, including in such request such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses. Any such indemnification or advancement of Expenses shall be made promptly, and in any event within 45 days after receipt by the Corporation of the written request of the
Indemnitee, unless with respect to requests under Paragraphs 3, 4 or 8 the Corporation determines within such 45-day period that such Indemnitee did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Paragraph 3 or 4, as the case may be.
Such determination, and any determination that advanced Expenses must be repaid to the Corporation, shall be made in each instance (a) by a majority vote of the directors of the Corporation or a committee thereof consisting of persons who are
not at that time parties to the Proceeding (“disinterested directors”), (b) by independent legal counsel appointed by a majority of the disinterested directors, or if there are none, by a majority of the directors in office or
(c) by a majority vote of the stockholders who are not parties to the Proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a court 
  

 4 

 having jurisdiction (which need not be the court in which the Proceeding in question was brought) may grant or deny
indemnification in each instance under the provisions of law and this Agreement. 
 10. Remedies. The right to indemnification or
advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall be enforceable by the Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction if the Corporation denies such request, in whole or in part, or if no disposition thereof is made within the 45-day
period referred to above in Paragraph 9. Unless otherwise required by law, the burden of proving that indemnification is not appropriate shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation to have made a determination prior to
the commencement of such action that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation pursuant to Paragraph 9 that Indemnitee has not
met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. Indemnitee’s expenses (of the type described in the definition of
“Expenses” in Paragraph 2(c)) reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing his right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such Proceeding shall also be indemnified by the Corporation. 
 11. Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a
portion of the Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with any Proceeding but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such
Expenses to which Indemnitee is entitled. 
 12. Subrogation. In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Corporation shall
be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable
the Corporation to bring suit to enforce such rights. 
 13. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon
the later of (a) six years after the date that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a director or officer of the Corporation or, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, employee, trustee, partner or other agent of another
organization or other enterprise or (b) the final termination of all Proceedings pending on the date set forth in clause (a) in respect of which Indemnitee is granted rights of indemnification or advancement of Expenses hereunder and of
any proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Paragraph 10 of this Agreement relating thereto. 
 14. Indemnification Hereunder
Not Exclusive. The indemnification and advancement of Expenses provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may be entitled under the Restated Articles of Organization, the Amended and Restated
By-Laws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, the Massachusetts General Laws, any other law (common or statutory), or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while
holding office for the Corporation. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit the Corporation 
  

 5 

 from purchasing and maintaining insurance, at its expense, to protect itself or the Indemnitee against any liability or
cost incurred by it or him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Indemnitee would be indemnified against such liability or cost under this Agreement; provided that the Corporation shall not be liable under
this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise. 
 15. No Special Rights. Nothing herein shall confer upon Indemnitee any right to continue to serve as an officer or director of the Corporation for
any period of time or at any particular rate of compensation. 
 16. Savings Clause. If this Agreement or any portion thereof shall be
invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee as to Expenses with respect to any Proceeding to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Agreement
that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. 
 17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall constitute the original. 
 18. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement
shall be binding upon the Corporation and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and personal representatives of Indemnitee. 
 19. Headings. The headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction thereof. 

20. Modification and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended from time to time to reflect changes in Massachusetts law or for other reasons. No
supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other
provision hereof nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. 
 21. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (i) when delivered by hand or (ii) if mailed by certified or registered mail with postage prepaid, on the third day after the date on which it is so
mailed: 
 (a) if to the Indemnitee, to:
[                            ] 
 (b) if to the Corporation, to: 
 StockerYale, Inc. 
 32 Hampshire Road 
 Salem, New Hampshire 03079 
  

 6 

 or to such other address as may have been furnished to Indemnitee by the Corporation or to the Corporation by Indemnitee,
as the case may be. 
 22. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the
laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. 
 23. Enforcement. The Corporation expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into
this Agreement in order to induce Indemnitee to continue to serve as a director or officer of the Corporation, and acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in continuing in such capacity. 
 24. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and
supercedes all prior agreements, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or representative of any party hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein; and any prior agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject
matter contained herein is hereby terminated and cancelled. For avoidance of doubt, the parties confirm that the foregoing does not apply to or limit the Indemnitee’s rights under Massachusetts law or the Corporation’s Restated Articles of
Organization or Amended and Restated By-Laws.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and
year first above written.
