        7. Replace paragraph 3.2 of the Supply Agreement with the following:

                3.2 On or before the date specified for delivery of each lot,
        Bachem shall deliver samples (in sample sizes specified by Amylin) of
        such lot of Product to Amylin for testing ("Testing Samples"). The
        Testing Samples will be prepared and packed by Bachem in accordance with
        Amylin SOP-373-038 and SOP-373-015. If such lot is accepted by Amylin in
        accordance with Paragraph 4.1, Bachem shall deliver the remainder of
        such lot of Product ("Commercial Material") to a carrier specified by
        Amylin for shipment to the location(s) specified by Amylin. Each lot of
        Commercial Material will be packed by Bachem in accordance with Amylin
        SOP-373-015.

        8. Paragraph 4.1, lines 1-2 of the Supply Agreement: Replace "each
shipment of Product sold hereunder" with "Testing Samples for each lot of
Product." Throughout the remainder of Paragraph 4.1, replace "shipment" with
"lot."

        9. Paragraph 6, line 2 of the Supply Agreement: Replace "lot of Product"
with "Testing Samples for each lot of Product."

        10. In paragraph 7.2(c) of the Supply Agreement, substitute the first
paragraph which ends with the word "follows:" with the following:

        Amylin may terminate this Agreement by giving Bachem thirty (30) days
        prior written notice in each of the following situations: (i) upon
        notice from the FDA that Bachem is not an approved commercial supplier
        of Product or failure of Bachem to successfully complete its
        pre-approval inspection (PAI), (ii) as a consequence of clinical trial
        results obtained, Amylin determines in its sole discretion that the
        quantities of Product specified in the Agreement are not needed by
        Amylin, (iii) the FDA notifies Amylin that it will not approve the NDA
        directed to the Product or it is not approved by [...***...], (iv)
        Amylin withdraws the NDA directed to the Product or (v) Amylin withdraws
        the Product from the market. Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination
        as a consequence of clinical trial results under paragraph 7.2(c)(ii)
        will not relieve Amylin of its obligation to accept and pay for
        quantities of material previously ordered

        pursuant issued purchase orders. If Amylin terminates this Agreement
        under any of 7.2(c)(ii), (iii), (iv) or (v), then Amylin agrees to
        reimburse Bachem for a portion of its investment cost for plant and
        equipment, as follows:

        11. In paragraph 7.2(c) of the Supply Agreement, substitute the last
paragraph with the following two paragraphs:

                If Amylin terminates this Agreement under any of Paragraphs
        7.2(c)(ii), (iii), (iv) or (v), Amylin shall compensate Bachem for its
        out-of-pocket costs associated with any work in progress, including
        expenses for raw materials purchased and prepared to support up to the
        next twelve months of production in accordance with the schedule set
        forth in paragraph 2.2.

                Notwithstanding 7.2(c)(ii), in the event that, as a consequence
        of clinical trial results obtained, Amylin determines in its sole
        discretion that the quantities of Product specified in the Agreement are
        not needed by Amylin, but that some quantities of Product are needed by
        Amylin, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify Paragraph
        2.2 (quantities and delivery dates), rather than terminate the
        Agreement.

        12. In paragraph 15, line 2 of the Supply Agreement: replace "New York"
with "California."

        13. At the end of the Supply Agreement, add new Article 24 which reads
as follows:

        24. Assurance of Payment. Concurrently with the signing of the
        Assignment and Amendment Agreement by all parties, Amylin agrees to
        deposit [...***...], which represents [...***...] of the maximum
        termination fee due under paragraph 7.2(c), into Escrow or other
        arrangement or instrument which has a similar degree of surety (e.g., an
        irrevocable letter of credit). The amount in escrow (or similar
        arrangement or instrument) shall be adjusted upward or downward as
        follows. On or before [...***...], Amylin agrees to add [...***...],

        Concurrently with the issuance of the first purchase order for delivery
        of Product in [...***...]or thereafter, Amylin will add [...***...],
        which represents the approximate cost of raw materials and work in
        progress for one [...***...] lot of Product. After the purchase of
        [...***...] of Product under this Agreement, the amount in escrow (or
        similar arrangement or instrument) shall be reduced by [...***...].
        After the purchase of [...***...] of Product under this Agreement, the
        amount in escrow (or similar arrangement or instrument) shall be reduced
        by an additional [...***...]. All interest or other income, if any,
        arising from the amount in escrow (or similar arrangement or instrument)
        shall be paid to Amylin. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Paragraph
        24 shall remain in effect only until marketing approval is obtained for
        pramlintide in a Major Market Country. After receipt of marketing
        approval for pramlintide in a Major Market Country, any and all funds
        then in escrow (or similar arrangement or instrument) will be returned
        to Amylin, and Amylin will have no obligation to deposit any further
        amount into escrow (or similar arrangement or instrument). Additionally,
        in the event Amylin and Bachem believe that a normal and customary
        business relationship exists between the parties, the parties will
        discontinue the escrow-type arrangement described in this Paragraph 24.

        14. Add a new Exhibit 3 (Purchase Order) to the Supply Agreement, which
is attached hereto as Exhibit A to this Assignment and Amendment and
incorporated herein by this reference.

        15. Replace the current Exhibit 1 to the Supply Agreement (Product
Specifications) with the revised Exhibit 1 to the Supply Agreement which is
attached hereto as Exhibit B to this Assignment and Amendment Agreement and
incorporated herein by this reference.

        16. Replace the current Exhibit 4 to the Supply Agreement (Alternative
Dispute Resolution Procedure) with the revised Exhibit 4 to the Supply Agreement
which is attached as Exhibit C to this Assignment and Amendment Agreement and
incorporated herein by this reference.

        2. The arbitration hearing shall be held in San Diego, California.
Either party may petition the Court to confirm the award of the arbitration, and

to AMYLIN and ORTHO-BIOTECH shall include their respective Affiliates. Johnson &
Johnson, a New Jersey corporation having a place of business at One Johnson &
Johnson Plaza, New Brunswick, New Jersey, ("J&J") is a party to this Agreement
as a guarantor of the performance under this Agreement by ORTHO-BIOTECH and all
of the Affiliates of ORTHO-BIOTECH.

        WHEREAS, AMYLIN and LifeScan, an Affiliate of J&J, entered into a
Collaboration Agreement effective as of June 20, 1995 which agreement was
amended by letter agreements dated August 2, 1996 and March 27, 1997 (together

order and purchase certain amounts of Pramlintide from third party vendors, and
AMYLIN desires that ORTHO-BIOTECH place in ORTHO-BIOTECH's inventory such
amounts of Pramlintide that ORTHO-BIOTECH has ordered or will order, for
possible future purchase by AMYLIN.

                                   DEFINITIONS

                  REPURCHASE OF PRAMLINTIDE INVENTORY BY AMYLIN

        3.1 Placement of Pramlintide in Inventory. Once Pramlintide ordered
pursuant to the [...***...] Purchase Order, the [...***...] Purchase Order
and/or the [...***...] Purchase Order is accepted by AMYLIN, AMYLIN will
promptly notify ORTHO-BIOTECH, and, after receiving such notification from
AMYLIN, ORTHO-BIOTECH agrees to purchase, take delivery and ownership of such
Pramlintide and place such Pramlintide in its inventory and store the
Pramlintide at a temperature of -20 (degree)C to -70 (degree)C in the original
unopened containers as received from the manufacturer and in accordance with
Current Good Manufacturing Practices ("Approved Storage Conditions").

        3.2 Repurchase of Pramlintide Inventory. AMYLIN will repurchase
Pramlintide Inventory from ORTHO-BIOTECH in accordance with this Agreement.
AMYLIN's purchase of Pramlintide Inventory shall be unconditional (except as
provided in this Section 3.2) and in particular, if the Pramlintide Inventory no
longer meets applicable specifications at the time AMYLIN is obligated to
purchase it, AMYLIN shall nevertheless be obligated to purchase the Pramlintide
Inventory, unless AMYLIN can demonstrate that the reason that the Pramlintide no
longer meets Specifications is solely due to ORTHO-BIOTECH's failure to store
the Pramlintide in accordance with Approved Storage Conditions. Moreover, if all
or part of the Pramlintide Inventory does not meet applicable

                                       4     * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED
<PAGE>   5
specifications due to ORTHO-BIOTECH's failure to store the Pramlintide in
accordance with Approved Storage Conditions, AMYLIN's sole and exclusive remedy
shall be to cancel its purchase obligations for such Pramlintide Inventory
hereunder. AMYLIN agrees and acknowledges that it shall be obligated to purchase
the Pramlintide Inventory even if the specifications for Pramlintide change
between now and the time for purchase for any reason, including but not limited
to pursuant to a regulatory requirement.

        3.3 Repurchase Price. The price that AMYLIN will pay to ORTHO-BIOTECH
for the Pramlintide Inventory it purchases hereunder shall be the same price
that ORTHO-BIOTECH paid to the supplier under the applicable [...***...]
Purchase Order, [...***...] Purchase Order or [...***...] Purchase Order, as the
case may be, plus the Inventory Carrying Cost applicable to such Pramlintide
Inventory.

        3.4 Time of Repurchase. The Pramlintide Inventory will be purchased and
paid for in full by AMYLIN, including applicable Inventory Carrying Cost, on the
first-to-occur of any of the following (a) - (d):

            (a) AMYLIN executes any agreement with a Major Company relating to
the development, commercialization and/or sale of Pramlintide. In this event,
payment will be made to ORTHO-BIOTECH for all Pramlintide Inventory on or before
[...***...] or the date of the first filing of an application for Regulatory
Approval for Pramlintide, whichever occurs first, provided, however, that if the
agreement with a Major Company is not entered into until after [...***...], then
payment will be made upon execution of such agreement with a Major Company by
AMYLIN.

            (b) AMYLIN requests in writing, ORTHO-BIOTECH to fill-finish some or
all of the Pramlintide Inventory by placing it in vials and/or cartridges, or
requests ORTHO-BIOTECH to transfer it to a third party for further processing.
The quantity of Pramlintide to be fill-finished or transferred, must be paid for
in full (including applicable Inventory Carrying Costs) before ORTHO-BIOTECH is
obligated to fill-finish or transfer it. In all cases, AMYLIN must order
quantities of Pramlintide Inventory to be fill-finished to correspond to entire
containers so that no containers holding Pramlintide Inventory need be opened by
ORTHO-BIOTECH.

            (c) AMYLIN receives Regulatory Approval for the sale of Pramlintide
in any of the United States, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, or

                                       5    * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED
<PAGE>   6
Japan, in which case AMYLIN agrees to purchase all Pramlintide Inventory within
ninety (90) days of such Regulatory Approval.

            (d) Completion of a transaction or series of transactions in which a
third party acquires or becomes the beneficial owner of (i) more than
[...***...] of the outstanding voting securities of AMYLIN or the surviving
entity, whether by merger, consolidation, reorganization, tender offer, or
similar means, (ii) all or substantially all of the assets of AMYLIN, or (iii)
all or substantially all of the assets of AMYLIN which are directed to its
business relating to Pramlintide. Provided, however, that if the third party has
total revenue that is less than [...***...] in the most recently completed
fiscal year for which audited financial statements are publicly available as
reported in such financial statements, or if not publicly available, as
appropriately provided by such third party, the percentage of outstanding voting
securities referred to in this Section 3.4(d)(i) shall be [...***...] rather
than [...***...].

If none of the events (a) - (d) occurs, AMYLIN will have no obligation to
purchase Pramlintide Inventory from ORTHO-BIOTECH, however, Section 3.6 will
apply in the case of bankruptcy of AMYLIN.

        3.5 Deferral of Repurchase. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section
3.4 (a), prior to executing any agreement with a Major Company, Amylin may
request Ortho-Biotech to defer in whole or in part the requirement for AMYLIN to
repurchase the Pramlintide Inventory at the time of the execution of the
agreement with the Major Company. Amylin together with its request, agrees to
provide Ortho-Biotech with justification in writing for deferring in whole or in
part such repurchase. Upon receiving such a request, Ortho-Biotech shall
promptly consider such request. Promptly after considering such request,
Ortho-Biotech shall inform Amylin of its decision of whether or not to accept or
reject Amylin's request. A decision to reject Amylin's request may be for any
reasonable business reason including but not limited to Ortho-Biotech's belief
that Amylin and/or the Major Company is capable of repurchasing the Pramlintide
Inventory at the time the agreement between Amylin and the Major Company is to
be executed, provided, however, the basis for a rejection of the Amylin request
cannot be solely to remove the cost of the Pramlintide Inventory from
Ortho-Biotech's or Johnson & Johnson's balance sheet. Ortho-Biotech shall,
however, have no obligation to provide Amylin the reason for its decision to
accept or reject Amylin's request to defer the repurchase.

        3.6 Bankruptcy. In the event of the commencement of bankruptcy
proceedings of AMYLIN or its successor company or upon entering into
receivership for protection against its creditors by AMYLIN or its successor
company, ORTHO-BIOTECH shall become a creditor for an amount equal to the price
ORTHO-BIOTECH has paid for Pramlintide Inventory plus applicable Inventory
Carrying Costs.

        3.7 Payment and Delivery. Upon payment in full of the price for all or
some of the Pramlintide inventoried by ORTHO-BIOTECH, ORTHO-BIOTECH agrees to
deliver to AMYLIN the quantity of Pramlintide Inventory so paid for by AMYLIN.

        3.8 Shipment. ORTHO-BIOTECH shall prepare the Pramlintide Inventory
being purchased by AMYLIN for pick-up at ORTHO-BIOTECH's loading dock. Shipment
terms are F.O.B. ORTHO-BIOTECH's loading dock. All charges for packing, hauling,
storage, bar-coding and transportation to the point of delivery are included in
the purchase price unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.

Dispute Resolution ("ADR") in the manner described below:

            (a) If a party intends to begin an ADR to resolve a dispute, such
Party shall provide written notice (the "ADR Request") to the other Party
informing such other Party of such intention and the issues to be resolved.

            (b) Within ten (10) business days after the receipt of the ADR
Request, the other Party may, by written notice to the counsel for the Party
initiating ADR, add additional issues to be resolved.

ENDISPUTE Rules A and C, attached hereto as Exhibit A, except as otherwise
provided hereinafter.

to be presented to the Parties by ENDISPUTE.

            (b) Proceedings. The time periods set forth in the ENDISPUTE rules
shall be followed, unless a Party can demonstrate to the Panel that the
complexity of the issues or other reasons warrant the extension of one or more
of the time periods. In such case, the Panel may extend such time periods, but
in no event shall the time periods be extended so that the ADR proceeding
extends more than one (1) year from its beginning to the Panel's decision. The
Panel shall not award punitive damages to either Party and the Parties shall be
deemed to have waived any right to such damages. The Panel shall, in rendering
its decision, apply the substantive law of the State of Delaware, except that
the interpretation of and enforcement of this Article shall be governed by the
Federal Arbitration Act. The Panel shall apply the Federal Rules of Evidence to
the hearing. The proceeding shall take place in New Brunswick, New Jersey if
requested and begun by AMYLIN and in San Diego, California if requested and
begun by ORTHO-BIOTECH. The Panel will determine the specific location within
New Brunswick or San Diego. The fees of the Panels and ENDISPUTE shall be paid
by the losing Party which shall be designated by the Panel. If the Panel is
unable to designate a losing party, it shall so state and the fees shall be
split equally between the Parties.

            (c) Award. The Panel is empowered to award any remedy allowed by
law, including money damages, consequential damages, prejudgment interest and
attorneys' fee, and to grant final, complete, interim, or interlocutory relief,
including injunctive relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, punitive damages may
not be awarded.

            (d) Costs. Except as set forth in Section 4.2(c), above, each Party
shall bear its own legal fees.

            (e) Confidentiality. The ADR proceeding shall be confidential and
the Panel shall issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard each Party's
confidential information. Except as required by law, no Party shall make (or
instruct the Panel to make) any public announcement with respect to the
proceedings or decision of the Panel without prior written consent of each other
Party. The existence of any dispute submitted to ADR, and the award, shall be
kept in confidence by the Parties and the Panel, except as required in
connection with the enforcement of such award or as otherwise required by
applicable law.
