with any regulatory approvals which Company may have for the Products in the
Territory. Distributor shall not use the Trademarks in any way which would
undermine or have a negative effect upon the reputation of the Company or the
strength or validity of Company's rights in the Trademarks. Distributor's
licence under this Section 9.1 is conditional on advertising using the
Trademarks complying with all applicable laws in the Territory. Distributor
shall discontinue all use of the Trademarks upon Company's request or upon
termination of this Agreement.

     9.2  Distributor shall use the Trademarks on or in connection only with
those Products that conform to the Specifications.

     9.3  To verify compliance with Article 9 hereof, Distributor will submit to
Company samples of promotional materials and any packaging therefor that
Distributor has prepared, and other items bearing the Trademarks that
Distributor may have prepared, and Company, or its delegate, will inspect such

have accepted such items as compliant. The Trademarks shall be the exclusive
property of the Company, and Distributor shall not seek to register or have
registered the Trademarks in the Territory.

     9.4  Company agrees that it will file applications for registration of the
marks GELCLAIR and SINCLAIR in all the countries in the Territory (if not

                             CONFIDENTIAL DOCUMENT

          will be satisfied by Company issuing a standing instruction to its
          trademark attorneys to copy all relevant correspondence to Distributor
          and if Distributor has not objected to any proposed action within 15
          days, Distributor will be taken to have accepted the proposed action;

     (b)  bear the expense and responsibility of such trademark registration
          filings, prosecution and maintenance, including filing any statements
          of use; and

     (c)  not allow such trademark registrations to become abandoned without
          Distributor's permission (which is not to be unreasonably withheld).

Agreement.

     9.5  Company agrees that if the "Gelclair" Trademark is unavailable for use

definition of `Trademarks' given in Section 9.1 and the provisions of Sections
9.1 to 9.8 shall apply to the alternative trademark.

     9.6  During the term of this Agreement, if either Party becomes aware of a
possible third party infringement of a Trademark in the Territory (or any
portion thereof) within the license grant in section 9.1, that Party shall
immediately notify the other of the possible infringement so that the other
Party can investigate the matter. Distributor shall, at its sole option, have
the right to enforce such trademark rights against such a third-party infringer
in such parts of the Territory as it sees fit using counsel of its own selection
and at its own expense. Distributor shall also have the option of joining
Company as a party to such an enforcement action, and Company will provide
reasonable cooperation in such joinder and in any such enforcement action. If
Company is made a party to such action, Distributor shall compensate Company for
any reasonable costs, expenses or fees which Company incurs as a result of such
action. In any such enforcement action initiated by Distributor, Distributor
shall have the option to settle such an action on such terms as it deems

any monies recovered in such a settlement shall, in order, first be used to
compensate Distributor its costs of initiating and pursuing such an infringement
action and second to compensate Distributor and Company for their lost sales as
a result of such infringement in a proportion to reflect their respective loss
of sales recovered.

     9.7  Company warrants that it has no knowledge of any actual or potential
Trademark infringement claim by a third party in the Territory that would, if
successfully brought and prosecuted, impair the Company's ability to supply
Distributor Product consistent with the terms of this Agreement or impair the
Distributor's ability to distribute and sell Product in the Territory under the
licensed Trademarks. If, at any time during the term of this Agreement either
Party learns that any Product distributed or sold by Distributor under this
Agreement is subject to a possible third-party claim of trademark infringement
of any of the Trademarks, the Party learning of the claim shall promptly notify
the other Party in writing. Company shall indemnify and hold Distributor
harmless and accept all legal and financial responsibility for any liability,
damage, loss, cost or expense arising out of any such trademark infringement
claims in respect of the manufacture, use or sale of the Product bearing the
Trademark(s), provided that such

asked Company to produce. Distributor shall promptly notify Company of any
trademark infringement claims for Company to indemnify and at Company's cost,
permit attorneys mutually agreeable to the Parties to handle and control such
trademark infringement claims or suits. Distributor agrees to provide Company
with reasonable assistance in defending such infringement action or in
prosecuting any related action.

     9.8  The Distributor and its Affiliates shall at the request of the Company
execute such registered user or other agreements in respect of the use of the
Trademarks in the Territory as the Company may reasonably require. Each Party
will join with the other Party in registering the trademark licence granted
hereunder with the registrars of trademarks in the Territory as may be required
by the other Party. The Distributor and its Affiliates hereby agree that upon
any amendment or termination of this Agreement the Distributor and its
Affiliates will execute any documents that the Company may reasonably request
for the purpose of applying for variation or cancellation of the entries with
the registrars of the Distributor and its Affiliates as licensees of the
Trademarks.

     9.9  Distributor shall have the right to use the trademark "Cell Pathways"
on the Product, and Company shall cooperate with Distributor to ensure that that
mark (as well as any alternative mark under Section 9.5 above) appears on all
packaging of Product supplied by Company to Distributor under this Agreement.

counsel of its own selection and at its own expense. Distributor shall also have
the option of joining Company as a party to such an enforcement action, and
Company will provide reasonable cooperation in such joinder and in any such
enforcement action. If Company is made a party to such action, Distributor shall
compensate Company for any reasonable costs, expenses or fees which Company
incurs as a result of such action. In any such enforcement action initiated by
Distributor, Distributor shall have the option to settle such an action on such
terms as it deems reasonable. Any damages awarded as a result of any such
infringement action, or any monies recovered in such a settlement shall, in
order, first be used to compensate Distributor its costs of initiating and
pursuing such an infringement action and second to compensate Distributor and
Company for their lost sales as a result of such infringement in a proportion to
reflect their respective loss of sales recovered.

     10.5. Company warrants that it has no knowledge of any actual or potential
patent infringement claim that would, if successfully brought and prosecuted,
impair the Company's ability to supply Distributor Product consistent with the
terms of this Agreement or impair the Distributor's ability to distribute and
sell Product in the Territory. If, at any time during the term of this Agreement
either Party learns that any Product manufactured by or on behalf of Company or
distributed or sold by Distributor under this Agreement is subject to a possible
third-party claim of patent infringement within the Territory, the Party
learning of the claim shall promptly notify the other Party in writing.
