Dear Mr. Gabriel:

             DNAPrint genomics, Inc. and The Penn State Research Foundation
(PSRF) entered into a License Agreement effective on July 25, 2002. You notified
us in an email dated February 4, 2004 that you would like to terminate the
License Agreement as soon as possible.

             Paragraph 14.1 of the License Agreement states that "LICENSEE shall
