                          To Purchase Common Stock of

             3-DIMENSIONAL PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.  (the "Company")

                   DATE OF INITIAL ISSUANCE:  June 12, 1997

     THIS CERTIFIES THAT for value received, TRANSAMERICA BUSINESS CREDIT

value, of the Company (the "Common Stock"), at the Warrant Price, payable as
provided herein.  The exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to the
provisions, limitation and restrictions herein contained, and may be exercised
in whole or in part.

<PAGE>

  Warrant Shares - shall mean shares of Common Stock purchased or purchasable by
  --------------
the Holder of this Warrant upon the exercise hereof.

SECTION 2.  EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

     (i)    Procedure for Exercise of Warrant. To exercise this Warrant in whole
or in part (but not as to any fractional share of Common Stock), the Holder
shall deliver to the Company at its office referred to in Section 12 hereof at
any time and from time to time during the Term of this Warrant: (i) the Notice
of Exercise in the form attached hereto, (ii) cash, certified or official bank
check payable to the order of the Company, wire transfer of funds to the
Company's account, or evidence of any indebtedness of the Company to the Holder
(or any combination of any of the foregoing) in the amount of the Warrant Price
for each share being purchased, and (iii) this Warrant. Notwithstanding any
provisions herein to the contrary, if the Current Market Price (as defined in
Section 5) is greater than the Warrant Price (at the date of calculation, as set
forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant as hereinabove permitted, the
Holder may elect to receive shares of Common Stock equal to the value (as
determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by
surrender of this Warrant at the office of the Company referred to in Section 12
hereof, together with the Notice of Exercise, in which event the Company shall
issue to the Holder that number of shares of Common Stock computed using the
following formula:

                               CS=WCS x (CMP-WP)
                                  --------------
                                      CMP

Where

  CS    equals the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder

  WCS   equals the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the
        Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised,
        the portion of the Warrant being exercised (at the date of such
        calculation)

  CMP   equal the Current Market Price (at the date of such calculation)

  WP    equals the Warrant Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation)

In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, a
certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock so purchased,
registered in the name of the Holder or such other name or names as may be
designated by the Holder, shall be delivered to the Holder hereof within a
reasonable time, not exceeding fifteen (15) days, after the rights represented
by this Warrant shall have been so exercised; and, unless this Warrant has
expired, a new Warrant representing the number of shares (except a remaining
fractional share), if any, with respect to which this Warrant shall not then
have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder hereof within such time.
The person in whose name any certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued
upon exercise of this Warrant shall for all purposes be deemed to have become
the holder of record of such shares on the date on which the Warrant was
surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price and any applicable taxes was made,
irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the
date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of
the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of
such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the
stock transfer books are open.

  2.2  Transfer Restriction Legend.  Each certificate for Warrant Shares shall
bear the following legend (and any additional legend required by (i) any
applicable state securities laws and (ii)
<PAGE>

any securities exchange upon which such Warrant Shares may, at the time of such
exercise, be listed) on the face thereof unless at the time of exercise such
Warrant Shares shall be registered under the Securities Act:

     "The share represented by this certificate have not been registered under
     the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and
     may not be sold or transferred in the absence of such registration or an
     exemption therefrom under said Act and any applicable state securities
     laws."

Any certificate issued at any time in exchange or substitution for any
certificate bearing such legend (except a new certificate issued upon completion
of a public distribution under a registration statement of the securities
represented thereby) shall also bear such legend unless, in the opinion of
counsel for the holder thereof (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory
to counsel for the Company) the securities represented thereby are not, at such
time, required by law to bear such legend.

SECTION 3.  COVENANTS AS TO COMMON STOCK.  The Company covenants and agrees that
all shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to
the issue thereof.  The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay
when due and payable any and all federal and state taxes which may be payable in
respect of the issue of this Warrant or any Common Stock or certificates
therefor issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.  The Company further
covenants and agrees that the Company will at all times have authorized and
reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common
Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant.
The Company further covenants and agrees that if any shares of capital stock to
be reserved for the purpose of the issuance of shares upon the exercise of this
Warrant require registration with or approval of any governmental authority
under any federal or state law before such shares may be validly issued or
delivered upon exercise, then the Company will in good faith and as
expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure such registration or approval, as
the case may be.  If and so long as the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise
of this Warrant is listed on any national securities exchange, the Company will,
if permitted by the rules of such exchange, list and keep listed on such
exchange, upon the official notice of issuance, all shares of such Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

SECTION 4.  ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES.  Upon each adjustment of the Warrant
Price as provided in Section 5, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to
purchase, at the Warrant Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of
shares (calculated to the nearest tenth of a share) obtained by multiplying the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of
shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and
dividing the product thereof by the Warrant Price resulting from such
adjustment.

SECTION 5.  ADJUSTMENT OF WARRANT PRICE.  The Warrant Price shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as follows:

      (i) If, at any time during the Term of this Warrant, the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares
of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then,
following the record date fixed for the determination of holder of Common Stock
entitled to receive such stock dividend, subdivision or split-up, the Warrant
Price shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof shall be increased in proportion to such
increase in outstanding shares.
<PAGE>

      (ii) If, at any time during the Term of this Warrant, the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding is decreased by a combination of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date for such combination,
the Warrant Price shall appropriately increase so that the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof shall be decreased in proportion
to such decrease in outstanding shares.

      (iii)  In case, at any time during the Term of this Warrant, the Company
shall declare a cash dividend upon its Common Stock payable otherwise than out
of earnings or earned surplus or shall distribute to holder of its Common Stock
shares of its capital stock (other than Common Stock), stock or other securities
of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Company or other
persons, assets (excluding cash dividends and distributions) or options or
rights (excluding options to purchase and rights to subscribe for Common Stock
or other securities of the Company convertible into or exchangeable for Common
Stock), then, in each such case, immediately following the record date fixed for
the determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such
dividend or distribution, the Warrant Price in effect thereafter shall be
determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such
record date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be an amount equal to the
difference of (x) the Current Market Price of one share of Common Stock minus
(y) the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors of the
Company, whose determination shall be conclusive) of the stock, securities,
evidences of indebtedness, assets, options or rights so distributed in respect
of one share of Common Stock, and of which the denominator shall be such Current
Market Price.

      (iv) All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest
cent or to the nearest one-tenth (1/10) of a share, as the case may be.

      (v) For the purpose of any computation pursuant to this Section 5, the
Current Market Price at any date of one share of Common Stock shall be deemed to
be the average of the daily closing prices for the 15 consecutive business days
ending no more than 5 business days before the day in question (as adjusted for
any stock dividend, split, combination or reclassification that took effect
during such 15 business day period). The closing price for each day shall be the
last reported bid and asked priced regular way, in either case on the principal
national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to
trading or as reported by Nasdaq (or if the Common Stock is not at the time
listed or admitted for trading on any such exchange or if prices of the Common
Stock are not reported by Nasdaq then such price shall be equal to the average
of the last reported bid and asked prices on such day as reported by The
National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or any similar reputable quotation and
reporting service, if such quotation is not reported by the National Quotation
Bureau Incorporated); provided, however, that if the Common Stock is not traded
in such manner that the quotations referred to in this clause (v) are available
for the period required hereunder, the Current Market Price shall be determined
in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company or, if such determination
cannot be made, by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm
selected by the Board of Directors of the Company (or if such selection cannot
be made, by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm selected
by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its rules).

      (vi) Whenever the Warrant Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section
5, the Company shall prepare a statement showing the facts requiring such
adjustment and the Warrant Price that shall be in effect after such adjustment.
The Company shall cause a copy of such statement to be sent by mail, first class
postage prepaid, to each Holder of this Warrant at its, his or her address
appearing on the Company's records. Where appropriate, such copy may be given in
advance and may be included as part of the notice required to be mailed under
the provisions of subsection (viii) of this Section 5.

      (vii) Adjustments made pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall
be made on the date such divided, subdivision, split-up, combination or
distribution, as the case may be, is made, and shall
<PAGE>

become effective at the opening of business on the business day next following
the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to such dividend,
subdivision, split-up, combination or distribution.

      (viii) In the event the Company shall propose to take any action of the
types described in clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) of this Section 5, the Company
shall forward, at the same time and in the same manner, to the Holder of this
Warrant such notice, if any , which the Company shall give to the holders of
capital stock of the Company.

      (ix) In any case in which the provisions of this Section 5 shall require
that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an
event, the Company may defer until the occurrence of such event issuing to the
Holder of all or any part of this Warrant which is exercised after such record
date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of capital
stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such
event over and above the shares of capital stock issuable upon such exercise
before giving effect to such adjustment exercise; provided, however, that the
Company shall deliver to such Holder a due bull or other appropriate instrument
evidencing such Holder's right to receive such additional shares upon the
occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

SECTION 6.  OWNERSHIP.

     6.1    Ownership of This Warrant. The Company may deem and treat the person
in whose name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof
(notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone
other than the Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice
to the contrary until presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer
as provided in this Section 6.

     6.2    Transfer and Replacement.  (i)  Subject to the restrictions provided
herein, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable in whole or in
part upon the books of the Company by the Holder hereof in person or by duly
authorized attorney, and a new Warrant or Warrants, of the same tenor as this
Warrant but registered in the name of the transferee or transferees (and in the
name of the Holder, if a partial transfer is effected) shall be made and
delivered by the Company upon surrender of this Warrant duly endorsed, at the
office of the Company referred to in Section 12 hereof. Upon receipt by the
Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft or
destruction, and, in such case, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory
to it, and upon surrender of this Warrant if mutilated, the Company will make
and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor, in lieu of this Warrant; provided that
if the Holder hereof is an instrumentality of a state or local government or an
institutional holder or a nominee for such an instrumentality or institutional
holder an irrevocable agreement of indemnity by such Holder shall be sufficient
for all purposes of this Section 6, and no evidence of loss or theft or
destruction shall be necessary. This Warrant shall be promptly canceled by the
Company upon the surrender hereof if connection with any transfer or
replacement. Except as otherwise provided above, in the case of the loss, theft
or destruction of a Warrant, the Company shall pay all expenses, taxes and other
charges payable in connection with any transfer or replacement of this Warrant,
other than stock transfer taxes (if any) payable in connection with a transfer
of this Warrant, which shall be payable by the Holder.

      (ii) The transferability of this Warrant and the Warrant Shares are
subject to the following restrictions:

           (a) Registration Restrictions. This Warrant and the Warrant Shares
               -------------------------
have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of their issuance in
a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(2) thereof,
<PAGE>

and have not been registered under state securities laws by reason or their
issuance in a transaction exempt from such registration requirements. This
Warrant and the Warrant Shares may not be offered for sale, sold, transferred or
otherwise disposed of unless registered under the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws or exempted from registration. The Company shall be
entitled to give stop transfer instructions to the transfer agent with respect
to the Warrant and the Warrant Shares in order to enforce the foregoing
restriction. The restrictions contained herein shall be binding on any
transferee of this Warrant and the Company may require any such transferee to
execute an instrument agreeing in writing to be so bound by these restrictions
as a condition to transfer.

           (b)  Notice of Transfer and Opinion of Counsel.  The Holder,
                -----------------------------------------
and any other holder of the Warrant by acceptance thereof, agrees that, prior to
any transfer of any Warrant, such holder will give written notice to the Company
of such holder's intention to effect such transfer and to comply in all other
respects with the provisions of this Section 6.2. Each such notice shall contain
(I) a statement setting such Warrant, and (II) unless waived by the Company, an
opinion of counsel for such holder (who may be the inside or staff counsel
employed by such holder), as tot he necessity or non-necessity for registration
under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws in connection with
such transfer and stating the factual and statutory bases relied upon by
counsel. The following provisions shall then apply:

           (I)  If in the opinion of counsel for the Company the proposed
transfer of such Warrant may be effected without registration or qualification
under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, then the
registration holder of such Warrant shall be entitled to transfer such Warrant
in accordance with the intended method of disposition specified in the statement
delivered by such holder to the Company.

           (II) In the opinion of counsel for the Company the proposed transfer
of such Warrant may not be effected without registration under the Securities
Act or registration or qualification under any applicable state securities laws,
the registered holder of such Warrant shall not be entitled to transfer such
Warrant until the requisite registration or qualification is effective.

SECTION 7.  Mergers, Consolidation, Sales.  In the case of any proposed
            -----------------------------
consolidation or merger of the Company with another entity, or the proposed sale
of all or substantially all of its assets to another person or entity, or any
proposed reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company
adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter have the right to receive upon the basis and upon the terms and
conditions specified herein, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock of the
Company immediately theretofore purchasable hereunder, such shares of stock,
securities or assets as may (by virtue of such consolidation, merger, sale,
reorganization or reclassification) be issued or payable with respect to or in
exchange for the number of shares of such Common Stock purchasable hereunder
immediately before such consolidation, merger, sale, reorganization or
reclassification.  In any such case appropriate provision shall be made with
respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end
that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be,
in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable
upon the exercise of this Warrant.

SECTION 8.  Notice of Dissolution or Liquidation.  In case of any distribution
            ------------------------------------
of the assets of the Company in dissolution or liquidation (except under
circumstances when the foregoing Section 7 shall be applicable), the Company
shall give notice thereof to the Holder hereof and shall make no distribution to
shareholders until the expiration of thirty (30) days from the date of mailing
of the aforesaid notice and, in any case, the Holder hereof may exercise this
Warrant within thirty (30) days from the date of the giving of such notice, and
all rights herein granted not so exercised within such thirty-day period shall
thereafter become null and void.
<PAGE>

SECTION 9.  Notice of Extraordinary Dividends.  If the Board of Directors of the
            ---------------------------------
Company shall declare any dividend or other distribution on its Common Stock
except out of earned surplus or by way of a stock dividend payable in shares of
its Common Stock, the Company shall mail notice thereof to the Holder hereof not
less than thirty (30) days prior to the record date fixed for determining
shareholders entitled to participate in such dividend or other distribution, and
the Holder hereof shall not participate in such dividend or other distribution
unless this Warrant is exercised prior to such record date.  The provisions of
this Section 9 shall not apply to distributions made in connection with
transactions covered by Section 7.

SECTION 10.  Fractional Shares.  Fractional shares shall not be issued upon the
             -----------------
exercise of this Warrant but in any case where the Holder would, except for the
provisions of this Section 10, be entitled under the terms hereof to receive a
fractional share upon the complete exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall,
upon the exercise of this Warrant for the largest number of whole shares then
called for, pay a sum in cash equal to the excess of the value of such
fractional share (determined in such reasonable manner as may be prescribed in
good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) over the Warrant Price for
such fractional share.

SECTION 11.  Special Arrangements of the Company.  The Company covenants and
             -----------------------------------
agrees that during the Term of this Warrant, unless otherwise approved by the
Holder of this Warrant:

       11.1  Will Reserve Shares.  The Company will reserve and set apart

stock that class denominated as "Common Stock" on the date hereof.

             --------------------
corporation or other person or entity succeeding to the Company by merger,
consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company's
assets.

COMDISCO, INC. " LESSOR

MASTER LEASE AGREEMENT dated March 7, 1994 by and between COMDISCO, INC.
("Lessor") and 3-DIMENSIONAL PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. ("Lessee").

IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual agreements described below, the parties agree as
follows (all capitalized terms are defined in Section 14.19):

1.   Property Leased.

     Lessor leases to Lessee all of the Equipment described on each Schedule. IN
the event of a conflict, the terms of a Schedule prevail over this Master Lease.

2.   Term.

     On the Commencement Date, Lessee will be deemed to accept the Equipment,
will be bound to its rental obligations for each item of Equipment and the term
of a Schedule will begin and continue through the initial Term and thereafter
until terminated by either party upon prior written notice received during the
Notice Period. No termination may be effective prior to the expiration of the
Initial Term.

3.   Rent and Payment.

     Rent is due and payable in advance, in immediately available funds, on the
first day of each Rent Interval to the payee and at the location specified in
Lessor's invoice. Interim Rent is due and payable when invoiced. If any payment
is not made when due, Lessee will pay interest at the Overdue Rate. Upon
Lessee's execution of each Schedule, Lessee will pay Lessor the Advance
specified on the Schedule. The Advance will be credited towards the final Rent
payment if Lessee is not then in default. No interest will be paid on the
Advance.

4.   Selection; Warranty and Disclaimer of Warranties.

     4.1  Selection. Lessee acknowledges that it has selected the Equipment and
disclaims any reliance upon statements made by the Lessor.

     4.2  Warranty and Disclaimer or Warranties. Lessor warrants to Lessee that,
so long as Lessee is not in default, Lessor will not disturb Lessee's quiet and
peaceful possession, and unrestricted use of the Equipment. To the extent
permitted by the manufacturer, Lessor assigns to Lessee during the term of the
Schedule an manufacturer's warranties for the
<PAGE>

Equipment. LESSOR MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED AS TO ANY MATTER
WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE MERCHANTABILITY OF THE EQUIPMENT
OR ITS FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Lessor is not responsible for any
liability, claim, loss, damage or expense of any kind (including strict
liability in tort) caused by the Equipment except for any loss or damage caused
by the negligent acts of Lessor. In no event is Lessor responsible for special,
incidental or consequential damages.

5.   Title; Relocation or Sublease; and Assignment.

     5.1  Title. Lessee holds the Equipment subject and subordinate to the
rights of the Owner, Lessor, any Assignee and any Secured Party. Lessee
authorizes Lessor, as Lessee's agent, to prepare, execute and file in Lessee's
name precautionary Uniform Commercial Code financing statements showing the
interest of the Owner, Lessor, and any Assignee or Secured Party in the
Equipment and to insert serial numbers in Schedules as appropriate. Lessee will,
at its expense, keep the Equipment free and clear from any liens or encumbrances
of any kind (except any caused by Lessor) and will indemnify and hold Lessor,
Owner, any Assignee and Secured Party harmless from and against any loss caused
by Lessee's failure to do so.

     5.2  Relocation or Sublease. Upon prior written consent, Lessee may
relocate Equipment to any location within the continental United States provided
(i) the Equipment will not be used by an entity exempt from federal income tax,
(ii) all additional costs (including any administrative fees, additional taxes
and insurance coverage) are reconciled and promptly paid by Lessee.

     Lessee may sublease the Equipment upon the reasonable consent of the Lessor
and the Secured Party. Such consent to sublease will be granted if: (i) Lessee
meets the relocation requirement s set out above, (ii) the sublease is expressly
subject and subordinate to the terms of the Schedule, (iii) Lessee assignees its
rights in the sublease to Lessor and the Secured Party as additional collateral
and security, (iv) Lessee's obligation to maintain and insure the Equipment is
not altered, (v) all financing statements required to continue the Secured
Party's prior perfected security interest rate filed, and (vi) the sublease is
not to a leasing entity affiliated with the manufacturer of the Equipment
described on the Schedule. Lessor acknowledges Lessee's right to sublease for a
term which extends beyond the expiration of the Initial Term. If Lessee
subleases the Equipment for a term extending beyond the expiration of such
Initial Term of the applicable Schedule, Lessee will remain obligated upon the
expiration of the Initial Term to return such Equipment, or, at Lessor's sole
discretion to (i) return Like Equipment or (ii) negotiate a mutually acceptable
lease extension or purchase. If the parties cannot mutually agree upon the terms
of an extension or purchase, the term of the Schedule will extend upon the
original terms and conditions until terminated pursuant to Section 2.
<PAGE>

     No relocation or sublease will relieve Lessee from any of its obligations
under this Master Lease and the relevant Schedule.

     5.3  Assignment by Lessor. The term and conditions of each Schedule have
been fixed by Lessor in order to permit Lessor to sell and/or assign or transfer
its interest or grant a security interest in each Schedule and/or the Equipment
to a Secured Party or Assignee. In that event, the term Lessor will mean the
Assignee and any Secured Party. However, any assignment, sale, or other transfer
by Lessor will not relieve Lessor of its obligations to Lessee and will not
materially change Lessee's duties or materially increase the burdens or risks
imposed of Lessee. The Lessee consents to and will acknowledge such assignments
in a written notice given to Lessee. Lessee also agrees that:

         (a)   The Secured Party will be entitled to exercise all of Lessor's
               rights, but will not be obligated to perform any of the
               obligations of Lessor. The Secured Party will not disturb
               Lessee's quiet and peaceful possession and unrestricted use of
               the Equipment so long as Lessee is not in default and the Secured
               Party continues to receive all Rent payable under the Schedule;
               and

         (b)   Lessee will pay all Rent and all other amounts payable to the
               Secured Party, despite any defense or claim which it has against
               Lessor. Lessee reserves its right to have recourse directly
               against Lessor for any defense or claim;

         (c)   Subject to and without impairment of Lessee's leasehold rights in
               the Equipment, Lessee hold the Equipment for the Secured Party to
               the extent of the Secured Party's rights in that Equipment.

6.   New Lease; Taxes and Fees.

     6.1  Net Lease. Each Schedule constitutes a net lease. Lessee's obligations
to pay Rent and all other amounts is absolute and unconditional and is not
subject to any abatement, reduction, set-off, defense, counterclaim,
interruption, deferment or recoupment for any reason whatsoever.

     6.2  Taxes and Fees. Lessee will pay when due or reimburse Lessor for all
taxes, fees or any other charges (together with any related interest or
penalties not arising from the negligence of Lessor) accrued for or arising
during the term of each Schedule against Lessor, Lessee of the Equipment by any
governmental authority (except only Federal, state and local taxes on the
capital or the net income of Lessor). Lessor will file all personal property tax
returns for the Equipment and pay all property taxes due. Lessee will reimburse
Lessor for property taxes within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice.
<PAGE>

7.   Care, Use and Maintenance; Attachments and Reconfigurations; and Inspection
by Lessor.

     7.1  Care, Use and Maintenance. Lessee will maintain the Equipment in good
operating order and appearance, protect the Equipment from deterioration, other
than normal war and tear, and will not use the Equipment for any purpose other
than that for which it was designed. IF commercially available, Lessee will
maintain in force a standard maintenance contract with the manufacturer of the
Equipment, or another party acceptable to Lessor, and will provide Lessor with a
complete copy of that contract. If Lessee has the Equipment maintained by a
party other than the manufacturer, Lessee agrees to pay any costs necessary for
the manufacturer to bring the Equipment to then current release, revision and
engineering change levels, and to re-certify the Equipment as eligible for
manufacturer's maintenance at the expiration of the lease term. The lease term
will continue upon the same term and conditions until recertification has been
obtained.

     7.2  Attachments and Reconfigurations. Upon receiving the prior written
consent of Lessor, Lessee may reconfigure and install Attachments on the
Equipment. In the event of such a Reconfiguration or Attachment, Lessee will,
upon return of the Equipment, at its expense, restore the Equipment to the
original configuration specified on the Schedule in accordance with the
manufacturer"s specifications and in the same operating order, repair and
appearance as when installed (normal wear and tear excluded). IF any parts of
the Equipment are removed during a Reconfiguration or Attachment, Lessor may
require Lessee to provide additional security, satisfactory to the Lessor, in
order to ensure performance of Lessee's obligations set forth in this
subsection. Neither Attachments nor parts installed on Equipment in the course
of Reconfiguration will be accessions to the Equipment.

     7.3  Inspection by Lessor. Upon request, Lessee, during reasonable business
hours and subject to Lessee's security requirements, will make the Equipment and
its related log and maintenance records available to Lessor for inspection.

8.   Representations and Warranties of Lessee. Lessee hereby represents,
warrants and covenants that with respect to the Master Lease and each Schedule
executed hereunder:

         (a)   The Lessee is a corporation duly organized and validly existing

               incorporation, is duly qualified to do business in each
               jurisdiction (including the jurisdiction where the Equipment is,
               or is to be, located) where its ownership or lease of property or
               the conduct of its business requires such qualification; and has
               full corporate power and authority to hold property under the
               Master Lease and each Schedule and to enter into and perform its
               obligations under such Lease.
<PAGE>

               each Schedule and its performance thereunder have been duly
               authorized by all necessary corporate action of the part of the
               Lessee, and the Master Lease and each Schedule are not

               Bylaws, do not contravene any law or governmental rule,
               regulation or order applicable to it, do not and will not
               contravene any provision of, or constitute a default under, any
               indenture, mortgage, contract or other instrument to which it is
               a party or by which it is bound, and the Master Lease and each
               Schedule constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of the
               Lessee, enforceable in accordance with their terms.

               pending or, to the knowledge of the Lessee, threatened against or
               affecting the Lessee in any court or before any governmental
               commission, board or authority which, if adversely determined,
               will have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Lessee
               to perform its obligations under the Master Lease and each
               Schedule.

         (d)   The Equipment is personal property and when subjected to use by

               Financial Statements and liabilities and obligations which have
               occurred in the ordinary course of business, and which have not

               Lessee's ongoing business.

         (f)   To the best of the Lessee's knowledge, the Lessee owns,
               possesses, has access to, or can become licensed on reasonable
               terms under all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trade
               names, inventions, franchises, licenses, permits, computer

               Lessee is a party are in full force and effect in all material
               respects, and are valid, binding and enforceable by the Lessee in

<PAGE>

     Lessee hereby assumes the full expense of transportation and in-transit

to Lessor's instructions and at Lessee's full expense (including, without
limitation, expenses of transportation and in-transit insurance), return the
Equipment to Lessor in the same operating order, repair, condition and
appearance as when received, less normal depreciation and wear and tear. Lessee
shall return the Equipment to Lessor at its address set forth herein or at such
other address within the continental United States as directed by Lessor,
provided, however, that Lessee's expense shall be limited to the cost of
returning the equipment to Lessor's address as set forth herein. During the
period subsequent to receipt of a notice under Section 2, Lessor may demonstrate
the Equipment"s operation in place and Lessee will supply any of its personnel
as may reasonable be required to assist in the demonstrations.

10.  Labeling.

     Upon request, Lessee will mark the Equipment indicating Lessor's interest.
Lessee will keep all Equipment free from any other marking or labeling which

11.  Indemnity.

     Lessee will indemnify and hold Lessor, any Assignee and any Secured Party
harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, expenses, damages and
liabilities, including reasonable Attorneys' fees, arising out of the ownership
(for strict liability in tort only), selection, possession, leasing, operation,
control, use, maintenance, delivery, return or other disposition of the
Equipment. However, Lessee is not responsible to a party indemnified hereunder
for any claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities occasioned by the
negligent acts of such indemnified party. Lessee agrees to carry bodily injury
and property damage liability insurance during the term of the Master Lease in

owned by it. Any amounts received by Lessor under that insurance will be
credited against Lessee's obligations under this Section.

12.  Risk of Loss.

     Effective upon delivery and until the Equipment is returned, Lessee
relieves Lessor of responsibility for all risks of physical damage to or loss or
destruction of the Equipment. Lessee will carry casualty insurance for each item

such insurance will name the Lessor and any Secured Party as additional insured
and as loss payee, and will provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written
notice to the Lessor of cancellation or expiration, and will insure Lessor's
interests regardless of any breach or violation by Lessee of any representation,
warranty or condition contained in such policies and will be primary without
right of contribution from any insurance affected by Lessor. Upon the
<PAGE>

execution of any Schedule, the Lessee will furnish appropriate evidence of such
insurance acceptable to Lessor.

     Lessee will promptly repair any damaged item of Equipment unless such
Equipment has suffered a Casualty Loss. Within fifteen (15) days of Casualty
Loss, Lessee will provide written notice of that loss to Lessor and Lessee will,
at Lessor's option, either (a) replace the item of Equipment with Like Equipment
and marketable title to the Like Equipment will automatically vest in Lessor or
(b) pay the Casualty Value and after that payment and the payment of all other
amounts due and owing, Lessee's obligation to pay further Rent for the item of
Equipment will cease.

13.  Default, Remedies and Mitigation.

     13.1 Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following Events of
Default constitutes a default under a Schedule:

         (a)   Lessee's failure to pay Rent or other amounts payable by Lessee
               when due if that failure continues for five (5) days after
               written notice; or

         (b)   Lessee's failure to perform any other term or condition of the
               Schedule or the material inaccuracy of any representation or
               warranty made by the Lessee in the Schedule or in any document or
               certificate furnished to the Lessor hereunder if that failure or
               inaccuracy continues for ten (10) days after written notice; or

         (c)   An assignment by Lessee for the benefit of its creditors, the
               failure by Lessee to pay its debts when due, the insolvency of
               Lessee, the filing by Lessee or the filing against Lessee of any
               petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency law of for the
               appointment of a trustee or other officer with similar powers,
               the adjudication of Lessee as insolvent, the liquidation of
               Lessee, or the taking of any action for the purpose of the
               foregoing; or

         (d)   The occurrence of an Event of Default under any Schedule or other
               agreement between Lessee and Lessor or its Assignee of Secured
               Party.

     13.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any of the above Events of Default,
Lessor, at its option, may:

         (a)   enforce Lessee's performance of the provisions of the applicable
               Schedule by appropriate court action in law or in equity;

         (b)   recover from Lessee any damages and or expenses, including
               Default Costs;
<PAGE>

         (c)   with notice and demand, recover all sums due and accelerate and
               recover the present value of the remaining payment stream of all
               Rent due under the defaulted Schedule (discounted at the same
               rate of interest at which such defaulted Schedule was discounted
               with a Secured Party plus any prepayment fees charged to Lessor
               by the Secured Party or, if there is no Secured Party, then
               discounted at 6%) together will all Rent and other amounts
               currently due as liquidated damages and not as a penalty;

         (d)   with notice and process of law and in compliance with Lessee's
               security requirements, Lessor may enter on Lessee's premises to
               remove and repossess the Equipment without being liable to Lessee
               for damages due to the repossession, except those resulting from
               Lessor's, its assignees', agents' or representatives' negligence;
               and

         (e)   pursue any other remedy permitted by law or equity.

          The above remedies, in Lessor's discretion and to the extent permitted
by law, are cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently.

     13.3 Mitigation. Upon return of the Equipment pursuant to the terms of
Section 13.2, Lessor will use its best efforts in accordance with its normal
business procedures (and without obligation to give any priority to such
Equipment) to mitigate Lessor's damages as described below. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH
IN THIS SECTION, LESSEE HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS NOW OR HEREAFTER CONFERRED BY
STATUTE OR OTHERWISE WHICH MAY REQUIRE LESSOR TO MITIGATE ITS DAMAGES OR MODIFY
ANY OF LESSOR"S RIGHTS OR REMEDIES STATED HEREIN. Lessor may sell, lease or
otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Equipment at a public or private
sale for cash or credit with the privilege of purchasing the Equipment. The
proceeds from any sale, lease or other disposition of the Equipment are defined
as either:

         (a)   if sold or otherwise disposed of, the cash proceeds less the Fair
               Market Value of the Equipment at the expiration of the Initial
               Term less the Default Costs; or

         (b)   if leased, the present value (discounted at three points over the
               prime rate as referenced in the Wall Street Journal at the time
               of the mitigation) of the rentals for a term not to exceed the
               Initial Term, less the Default Costs.

     Any proceeds will be applied against liquidate damages and any other sums
due to Lessor from Lessee. However, Lessee is liable to Lessor for, and Lessor
may recover, the amount by which the proceeds are less than the liquidated
damages and other sum due to Lessor from Lessee.
<PAGE>

14.  Additional Provisions.

     14.1 Board Attendance. Lessor or its duly appointed representative will
have the right to attend Lessee's corporate Board of Directors meetings and
Lessee will give Lessor reasonable notice in advance of any special Board of
Directors meeting, which notice will provide an agenda of the subject matter to
be discussed at such board meeting. Lessee will provided Lessor with a certified
copy of the minutes of each Board of Directors meeting within thirty (30) days
following the date of such meeting held during the term of this Lease.

     14.2 Financial Statements. Lessee will provide to Lessor the financial
statements specified in this Section, prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, consistently applied (the "Financial
Statements"); provided, however, after the effective date of the initial
registration statement covering a public offering of Lessee's securities, the
term "Financial Statements" will be deemed to refer to only those statements
required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, to be provided no less
frequently than quarterly. Lessee will provide to Lessor (i) as soon as
practicable (within thirty (30) days) after the end of each month, the same
information which Lessee provides to its Board of Directors, but which will
include not less than a monthly income statement, balance sheet and statement of
cash flows, certified by Lessee's Chief Executive or Financial Officer to be
true and correct; and (ii) as soon as practicable (and in any event within
ninety (90) days) after the end of each fiscal year, audited balance sheets as
of the end of such year (consolidated if applicable), and related statements of
income or loss, retained earnings or deficit and changes in the financial
position and capital structure of Lessee for such year, setting forth in
comparative form the corresponding figures for the preceding fiscal year, and
accompanied by an audit report and opinion of the independent certified public
accountants selected by Lessee. Lessee will promptly furnish to Lessor any
additional information (including but not limited to tax returns, income
statements, balance sheets, and names of principal creditors) as Lessor
reasonably believes necessary to evaluate Lessee's continuing ability to meet
financial obligations.

     14.3 Obligations to Lease Additional Equipment. Upon notice to Lessee,
Lessor will not be obligated to lease any Equipment which would have a
Commencement Date after said notice if: (i) Lessee is in default under this
Master Lease or any Schedule; (ii) Lessee is in default under any loan
agreement, the result of which would allow the lender or any secured party to

            approval of the Equipment; and (2) at the request of Lessor, at
            Lessor's appraised value for such used Equipment.

3.   Commencement Date

     The Commencement Date for each item of Equipment will be its installation

invoices containing the Equipment location, description, serial number and cost,
the Installation Date and Lessee's signature. Lessor will summarize all invoices
and/or IAFs received in the same calendar quarter into a Commencement
Certificate in the form attached to this Schedule as Exhibit 1 and the Initial
Term will begin the first day of the calendar quarter thereafter. Each
Commencement Certificate will incorporate the terms and conditions of the Master
Lease and this Schedule and will constitute a separate Schedule. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Equipment pertains to Sale-Leaseback Equipment, the
Commencement Date will be the date Lessor tenders the purchase price for the
Equipment.

4.   Option to Extend

     So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Lessee will have the right to extend the Initial Term of this Schedule for a
period of one (1) year by giving Lessor at least one hundred and twenty (120)
days written notice prior to the expiration of the Initial Term. In such event,
the rent to be paid during said extended period shall be mutually agreed upon
and if the parties cannot mutually agree, then the Lease shall continue in full
force and effect pursuant to the existing terms and conditions until terminated
in accordance with its terms. This Schedule will continue in effect following
said extended period until terminated by either party upon not less than one
hundred and twenty (120) days prior written notice, which notice shall be
effective as of the Rent Interval next following receipt. Alternatively, at the
expiration of the Initial Term Lessee will have the right to extend the Initial
Term of this Schedule for a one year period at the same lease rate factor as set
forth on the face of this Schedule, by giving Lessor at least 120 days written
notice prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, and at the end of the one
year period, provided all lease payments have been made, title to the Equipment
shall automatically pass to Lessee.

5.   Purchase Option

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, and
upon written notice no earlier than twelve (12) months and no later than one
hundred and twenty (120) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term of
this Schedule, Lessee will have the option at the expiration of the Initial Term
of this Schedule to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Equipment listed
herein for a purchase price and upon terms and conditions to be mutually agreed
upon by the parties following Lessee's written notice, plus any taxes applicable
at the
<PAGE>

time of purchase. Said purchase price shall be paid to Lessor at least thirty
(30) days before the expiration date of the Initial Term. Title to the Equipment
shall automatically pass to Lessee upon payment in full of the purchase price
but, in no event, earlier than the expiration of the fixed Initial Term. If the
parties are unable to agree on the purchase price or the terms and conditions
with respect to said purchase, then the Lease with respect to this Equipment
shall remain in full force and effect. It is agreed and understood that Lessor
is retaining a purchase money security interest in the Equipment listed herein
and this Schedule shall constitute a Security Agreement under the Uniform
Commercial Code of the state in which the Equipment is located. Lessor and
Lessee agree that for purposes of this paragraph, any licensed software will not
be considered part of the Equipment.

                            SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

         THIS SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made this 28th day
of April, 1994, by and among Comdisco, Inc., a ______________ corporation (the
"Comdisco"), the Hankin Group, a Pennsylvania partnership (the "Hankin") and
3-Dimensional Pharmaceuticals Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Debtor").

                              B A C K G R O U N D

Hankin has made or intends to enter into a lease agreement ("Lease") with the
Debtor for premises to be constructed by Hankin at Lot 28, Eagleview Corporate
Center, Uwchlan Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania (the premises which are
or will be the subject of the Lease being hereinafter called the "Leased
Space"). Pursuant to the Lease, Debtor has granted to Hankin a security interest
under the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code, in all personal property owned
by Debtor and now or hereafter located at the Leased Space, to further secure
all obligations of Debtor to Hankin under the Lease. The personal property
encumbered by Hankin"s security interest includes, without limitation, those
items of personal property defined as "Trade Fixtures" in the Lease, which are
more fully listed in Exhibit "A" attached hereto (if such list has not been
prepared as of the date hereof, Hankin and Debtor shall prepare and initial such
list, which shall then become part of this Agreement as Exhibit A). The "Trade
Fixtures" as defined in the Lease are referred to herein as "Trade Fixtures."

         Comdisco has executed, or intends to execute, or intends to execute, an
equipment lease or leases (collectively the "Equipment Lease") with Debtor, for
a total rental of ___________ ($1,500,000.00) dollars. The property which is the
subject of the Equipment Lease is or will be located at the Leased Space, and is
collectively called the "Non-Trade Fixture Personally". The Non-Trade Fixture
Personally is more fully listed in Exhibit "B" attached hereto (if such list has
not been prepared as of the date hereof, Comdisco and Debtor shall prepare and
initial such list, which shall then become part of this Agreement as Exhibit B).
In the event of any inconsistency between Exhibits A and B such that any
personal property would appear to be both Trade Fixtures and Non-Trade Fixture
Personally, such personal property shall be deemed part of trade Fixtures only,
except that the parties agree that the total cost of Trade Fixtures shall not
exceed $100,000.00. In addition, Comdisco has made, or intends to make an
unsecured loan to Debtor in the stated principal amount of $610,000.00 (the
"Comdisco Loan"). The documents evidencing the Comdisco Loan are hereinafter
called the Loan Documents.

         Debtor, Hankin and Comdisco acknowledge and agree that Hankin would not
enter into the Lease with Debtor, and Comdisco would not enter into the
Equipment Lease to Debtor, but for the covenants of as set forth in this
Agreement; it being agreed that the Lease benefits Comdisco, and the Equipment
Lease benefits Hankin.

                                  AGREEMENTS

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, One Dollar ($1.00)
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

         1. Priority of Hankin as to Trade Fixtures. Hankin shall have the first
            ---------------------------------------
priority lien on and security interest in the Trade Fixtures. Comdisco shall
have no property rights in, lien on or security interest in the Trade Fixtures,
and hereby waives the right to levy, execute upon or assert any right in the
Trade Fixtures pursuant to any judgment obtained against Debtor or otherwise, it
being intended that any and all interest of Hankin in the Trade Fixtures shall
be free and clear of any interest of Comdisco therein. Hankin"s rights shall
apply regardless of the perfection, nonperfection, cessation of perfection or
order of perfection of the parties, respective interests. Comdisco agrees that
it shall give actual notice of the limitations on Comdisco"s right to levy upon
or execute against Trade Fixtures, upon any default under the Equipment Lease or
Loan Documents, to any assignee or third party acquiring any subsequent assignee
of the lessor"s or lender"s interest in the Equipment Lease or Loan Documents
respectively. Rankin hereby consents to the performance by Comdisco of any of
Debtor"s obligations under the Lease, and the assistant by Debtor to Comdisco of
its interest in the Lease, provided-that Comdisco"s financial statement is
reasonably judged by Hankin to be equal or superior to Debtor, s as of the date
of the assignment, and Comdisco agrees to assume and be bound by the provisions
of the Lease.

         2. Priority of Comdisco as to Non-Trade Fixture Personalty. Any and all
            -------------------------------------------------------
right, title and interest of Hankin in the Non-Trade Fixture Personalty is
under, subject and subordinate to rights of Comdisco therein pursuant to the
Equipment Lease. Hankin shall have a lien on and security interest in the rights
of Debtor in the Non-Trade Fixture Personalty pursuant to the Equipment Lease,
subject and subordinate to Comdisco"s rights therein. This priority shall apply
regardless of the perfection, nonperfection, cessation of perfection or order of
perfection of the parties" respective interests. Nothing contained herein shall
be deemed to limit any rights obtained by Comdisco as a permitted assignee of
Debtor"s rights under the Lease (in accordance with Section 12 (c) thereof), to
retain sublease rentals to which the "Tenant" under the Lease is entitled.

                                       2

         3. Control of Property. Until all of the Debtor"s obligations (whether
            -------------------
pre-existing or hereafter incurred) to Hankin have been performed or paid in
full (including, but not limited to, the payment of all Minimum Annual Rent and
Additional Rent which the Debtor is obligated to pay to Hankin) , Hankin shall
control the disposition of and the exercise of remedies with respect to the
Trade Fixtures in the event of a default by the Debtor in any of its obligations
to Hankin. Debtor and Comdisco hereby waive any and all claims against Hankin
which it may now or hereafter have on account of the Hankin"s action in using or
disposing of all or any of the Trade Fixtures. Comdisco waives any right to
control to timing, nature or extent of Hankin"s collection efforts against the
Debtor, including disposition of the Trade Fixtures. Hankin may exercise or
refrain from exercising its rights against the Debtor or the Trade Fixtures as
it may elect in its sale and absolute subjective discretion. Hankin hereby
consents to the installation of the Non-Trade Fixture Personalty within the
Leased Space, and shall permit Comdisco to enter the Leased Space upon
reasonable prior notice to Hankin for the purpose of exercising its rights under
the Equipment Lease. The Non-Trade Fixture Personalty shall not be considered
part of real property or a fixture, regardless of whether or by what means it is
or may become affixed to real property. In exercising its rights to remove the
Non-Trade Fixture Personalty pursuant to the Equipment Lease, Comdisco shall, at
its sole cost and expense, repair any damage to the Leased Space or the building
of which it is a part caused by Comdisco's negligence or failure to observe
reasonable precautions as Hankin may require, in the removal of the Non-Trade
Fixture Personalty.

         4. Miscellaneous. No waiver of any of its rights and remedies hereunder
            -------------
and no modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be deemed to be made
unless the same shall be in writing, duly by the parties hereto, and each such
waiver, if any, shall apply only with respect to the specific instance involved
and shall in no way impair the rights and remedies of the parties hereunder in
other respects at any other time. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
benefit the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Comdisco
irrevocably consents and submits to the jurisdiction and venue of the Court of
Common Pleas of Chester County, Pennsylvania, and of any other state or federal
court sitting in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania over any suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Comdisco irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding
brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The section
headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not limit or
otherwise affect any of the terms hereof. This Agreement shall be deemed
executed and delivered in and shall be construed, governed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in effect from time
