Any reference herein to the registration statement, the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Prospectus Supplement or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include (i) the documents incorporated by reference therein as of the date of the Prospectus pursuant to Form S-3 (the “Incorporated Documents”) and (ii) the copy of the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement, the Prospectus or the Incorporated Documents filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“EDGAR”).

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company, the Placement Agent and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Escrow Agent”) shall enter into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) will be established for the benefit of the Company and the Investors.

The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the Placement Agent as follows:

1. Agreement to Act as Placement Agent; Placement of Units. Upon the basis of the representations and warranties of the Company, the Company engages the Placement Agent to act as its exclusive placement agent in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of the Units to the Investors. As compensation for services rendered, at the time of purchase (as defined in Section 2) the Company shall pay to the Placement Agent, by Federal Funds wire transfer to an account or accounts designated by the Placement Agent, an aggregate amount equal to 5.7% of the gross proceeds received by the Company in respect of the sale of the Units. The Units are being sold at a price of $3.74 per Unit. The Placement Agent may retain other brokers or dealers to act as subagents on their behalf in connection with the offering and sale of the Units; provided that the Company will only be obligated to pay the Placement Agent for services rendered hereunder. Until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement or the time of purchase, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, solicit or accept offers to purchase Units otherwise than through the Placement Agent.

The Placement Agent agrees, as agent of the Company, to use its best efforts to solicit offers to purchase Units from the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Disclosure Package. The Placement Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Company in obtaining performance by each Investor whose offer to purchase Units has been solicited by the Placement Agent and accepted by the Company, but the Placement Agent shall not, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, be obligated to disclose the identity of any potential purchaser or have any liability to the Company in the event any such purchase is not consummated for any reason. This Agreement shall not give rise to any commitment by the Placement Agent or any of its affiliates to underwrite or purchase any of the Units. The Placement Agent shall have no authority to bind the Company in respect of the sale of any Units, and in soliciting purchases of Units, the Placement Agent shall act solely as the Company’s agent and not as principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as otherwise provided herein, it is understood and agreed that the Placement Agent (or its affiliates) may, solely at its discretion and without any obligation to do so, purchase Units as principals; provided, however, the Placement Agent shall not receive any compensation from the Company for such purchases.

Subject to the provisions of this Section 1, offers for the purchase of Units may be solicited by the Placement Agent as agent for the Company at such times and in such amounts as the Placement Agent deems advisable. The Placement Agent shall communicate to the Company each reasonable offer or indication of interest received by it to purchase Units. The Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase the Units and may reject any such offer in whole or in part.

2. Payment and Delivery. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates for, the Units shall be made at the office of Dechert LLP, Cira Centre, 2929 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104-2808 (or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Placement Agent and the Company), at 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on March 2, 2010 (unless another time shall be agreed to by the Placement Agent and the Company). The Units are being sold to the Investors at a price of $3.74 per Unit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, payment of the purchase price for the Units shall be made to the Company by Federal Funds wire transfer, against delivery of electronic certificates for the Common Stock included in the Units, through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), to such persons, and shall be registered in the name or names of the Investors and shall be in such denominations, as are requested at least two days prior to the date of closing by written notice to the Company. The executed Warrant included in the Units purchased by the Investor shall be delivered in accordance with the terms thereof. Payment of the purchase price for the Units shall be made by the Investors pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements. The time at which such delivery is to be made is hereinafter sometimes called “the time of purchase.” Electronic transfer of the Units shall be made at the time of purchase.

No Units which the Company has agreed to sell pursuant to this Agreement and the Subscription Agreements shall be deemed to have been purchased and paid for, or sold by the Company, until such Units shall have been delivered to the Investor thereof against payment by such Investor. If the Company shall default in its obligations to deliver the Units to an Investor whose offer it has accepted, the Company shall indemnify and hold the Placement Agent harmless against any loss, claim, damage or expense arising from or as a result of such default by the Company in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9(c).

Prior to the Closing (as defined below), each Investor shall deposit into the Escrow Account or, with the prior consent of the Company and the Placement Agent, make alternative arrangements for the payment directly to the Company of, an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of Units such Investor has agreed to purchase and (ii) the purchase price per Unit as set forth in the Subscription Agreements (the “Purchase Amount”). The aggregate of such Purchase Amounts deposited with the Escrow Agent is herein referred to as the “Escrow Funds.” On the Closing Date (as defined below), upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to Closing and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Subscription Agreements, (i) the Escrow Agent will disburse the Escrow Funds to the Company and the Placement Agent as provided in this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, (ii) the Company shall cause the Common Stock to be delivered to the Investors who have deposited their Purchase Amounts with the Escrow Agent, (iii) the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Investor a Warrant to purchase a number of whole Warrant Shares and (iv) the Company and any Investor who has made, with the consent of the Company and the Placement Agent, alternative arrangements for the payment directly to the Company of the applicable Purchase Price, shall consummate the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with such alternative arrangements.

Deliveries of the documents described in Section 7 with respect to the purchase of the Units (the “Closing”) shall be made at the office of Dechert LLP, Cira Centre, 2929 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104-2808 (or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Placement Agent and the Company) at 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the date of the closing of the purchase of the Units (the “Closing Date”).

9. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company agrees (i) to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Placement Agent, its affiliates, and each of its and their respective partners, directors, officers, members, representatives, employees and agents, and each person, if any, who controls any Placement Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons (collectively, the “Placement Agent Indemnified Parties,” and each a “Placement Agent Indemnified Party”), from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which the Placement Agent or any such person may incur under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based (A) in whole or in part upon any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein, (B) in whole or in part upon any failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or under law, (C) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (taking into account the documents incorporated by reference therein), or any amendment thereto, including any information deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to Rule 430A, Rule 430B or

Rule 430C under the Securities Act, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (D) upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (E) in whole or in part upon any act or failure to act or alleged act or failure to act by the Placement Agent in reliance upon clause (A), (B), (C) or (D) above, and in connection with or relating in any manner to the Units or the offering contemplated hereby, and which is included as part of or referred to in any loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising out of or based upon any matter covered by clause (A), (B), (C) or (D) above; provided that the Company shall not be liable under this clause (E) to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined by a final judgment that such loss, claim, damage, liability or action resulted from any such acts or failures to act undertaken or omitted to be taken by the Placement Agent through its bad faith or willful misconduct; and (ii) to reimburse any Placement Agent Indemnified Party for any and all expenses (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Placement Agent) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Placement Agent Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent, but only to the extent, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) which information the parties agree is limited solely to the Placement Agent’s Information as set forth in Section 18. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 9(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company may otherwise have.

(b) The Placement Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) (taking into account the documents incorporated by reference therein), or arises out of or is based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration

Statement, the Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent expressly for use therein; and to reimburse the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person for any legal and other expense reasonably incurred by the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action. The Company hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Placement Agent has furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) is the Placement Agent’s Information as set forth in Section 18. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9(b), in no event shall any indemnity by the Placement Agent under this Section 9(b) exceed the total compensation received by the Placement Agent in accordance with Section 1.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure to so notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any liability other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (x) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (other than local counsel), reasonably approved by the indemnifying party, representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or (y) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party.

(d) The indemnifying party under this Section 9 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by Section 9(c), the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (y) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 9(a) or 9(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other from the offering of the Units or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Units purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) and the Subscription Agreement received by the Company bears to the total compensation received by the Placement Agent with respect to the Units purchased under this Agreement and the Subscription Agreements. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one

hand or the Placement Agent on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission, provided that the parties agree that the only information supplied by the Placement Agent is the Placement Agent’s Information as set forth in Section 18. The Company and the Placement Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 9(e) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 9(e) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 9(e), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9(e), the Placement Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the total compensation received by the Placement Agent in accordance with Section 1 less the amount of any damages which the Placement Agent has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

10. Relationship of Parties. The Company acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the placement of the Units pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of commissions, is an arms-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent, on the other hand, and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement; (ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction the Placement Agent is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company, or its affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) the Placement Agent has not assumed nor will it assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Placement Agent or its affiliates have advised or are currently advising the Company on other matters) and the Placement Agent has no obligation to the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the Placement Agent and its affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and that the Placement Agent has no obligation to disclose any such interests by virtue of any advisory or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Placement Agent has not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent, on the other, with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Placement Agent with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty.

11. Notices. Except as otherwise herein provided, all statements, requests, notices and agreements shall be in writing or by telegram and, if to the Placement Agent, shall be sufficient in all respects if delivered or sent to Leerink Swann LLC, One Federal Street, 37th Floor Boston, Massachusetts 02110, Attention: Tim Gerhold with copies to Dechert LLP, 2929 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104, Attention: James A.

No Claim may be commenced, prosecuted or continued in any court other than the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, which courts shall have jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and the Company and the Placement Agent consent to the jurisdiction of such courts and personal service with respect thereto. Each of the Placement Agent and the Company (on its behalf and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on behalf of its stockholders and affiliates) waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The Company and the Placement Agent agree that a final judgment in any such action, proceeding or counterclaim brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company and the Placement Agent and may be enforced in any other courts to the jurisdiction of which the Company or the Placement Agent is or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment.

14. Parties at Interest. The Agreement herein set forth has been and is made solely for the benefit of the Placement Agent and the Company and to the extent provided in Section 9 any person or entity entitled to indemnification thereunder, and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, personal representatives and executors and administrators. This Agreement shall also inure to the benefit of the Investors and each of their successors and assigns, which shall be third party beneficiaries hereof.

16. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Placement Agent and the Company and their respective successors and assigns and any successor or assign of the Company’s and the Placement Agent’s respective businesses and/or assets.

17. Survival of Indemnities, Representations, Warranties, etc. The respective indemnities, covenants, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Placement Agent, as set forth in this Agreement or made by them respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Placement Agent, the Company, the Investors or any person controlling any of them and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Units.

2. The Company has authorized the sale and issuance to certain investors of up to an aggregate of 4,946,524 units (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of (i) one share (each, a “Share” and collectively, the “Shares”) of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) one warrant (each, a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase 0.375 of a share of Common Stock (and the fractional amount being the “Warrant Ratio”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, for a purchase price of $3.74 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”). Units will not be issued or certificated. The Shares and Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are referred to herein as the “Warrant Shares” and, together with the Units, the Shares and the Warrants, are referred to herein as the “Securities.” All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Placement Agency Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and between Leerink Swann LLC (the “Placement Agent”) and the Company (the “Placement Agency Agreement”).

3. The offering and sale of the Units and the Warrant Shares (the “Offering”) are being made pursuant to (i) an effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-158405) (the “Registration Statement”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and declared effective on May 27, 2009, which includes the base prospectus (the “Base Prospectus”), (ii) if applicable, certain “free writing prospectuses” (as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), that have been or will be provided to the Investor on or prior to the date hereof (each, a “Delivered Free Writing Prospectus”) and (iii) a final prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement” and together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”) containing certain supplemental information regarding the Units and terms of the Offering that will be filed with the SEC and provided to the Investor along with the Company’s counterpart to this Agreement or made available to the Investor by the filing by the Company of an electronic version thereof with the SEC. The Registration Statement, the documents incorporated by reference therein and all Delivered Free Writing Prospectuses are referred to herein collectively as the “Disclosure Package.”

4. The Company and the Investor agree that the Investor will purchase from the Company, and the Company will issue and sell to the Investor, the number of Units set forth below for the aggregate purchase price set forth below, pursuant to and subject to the Terms and Conditions for Purchase of Units attached hereto as Annex I, which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. Unless otherwise requested by the Investor no later than one (1) business day after the execution of this Agreement by the Investor and agreed to by the Company, the Shares included in the Units purchased by the Investor will be delivered by electronic book-entry at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), registered in the Investor’s name and address as set forth below and will be released by American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), to the Investor at the Closing (as defined in the Terms and Conditions for Purchase of Units). The executed Warrant included in the Units purchased by the Investor shall be delivered in accordance with the terms thereof. The Investor acknowledges that the Offering is not being underwritten by the Placement Agent and that there is no minimum offering amount. The Investor understands and agrees that the Company, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to accept or reject this subscription for Units, in whole or in part.

5. The Investor represents that, except as set forth below, (a) it has had no position, office or other material relationship within the past three (3) years with the Company or persons known to it to be affiliates of the Company, (b) it is not, and as of the Closing will not be, a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or an Associated Person (as such term is defined under the National Association of Securities Dealers Membership and Registration Rules Section 1011), and (c) neither the Investor nor any group of Investors (as identified in a public filing made with the SEC) of which the Investor is a part in connection with the Offering of the Units, acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, 20% or more of the Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock) or the voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis.

Exceptions:

(If no exceptions, write “none.” If left blank, response will be deemed to be “none.”)

6. The Investor confirms that it has had full access to all filings made by the Company with the SEC, including those portions of the Disclosure Package filed with the SEC, and that it was able to read, review, download and print each such filing prior to or in connection with the receipt of this Agreement along with the Delivered Free Writing Prospectus(es) and the Company’s counterpart to this Agreement.

The Investor’s obligation to purchase the Units will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by the Company and the fulfillment of those undertakings of the Company to be fulfilled prior to the Closing Date, including without limitation, those contained in the Placement Agency Agreement, and the condition that the Placement Agent shall not have: (a) terminated the Placement Agency Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof or (b) determined that the conditions to the closing in the Placement Agency Agreement have not been satisfied. The Investor’s obligations are expressly not conditioned on the purchase by any or all of the Other Investors of the Units that they have agreed to purchase from the Company. The Investor understands and agrees that, in the event the Placement Agent in its sole discretion determines that the conditions to closing in the Placement Agency Agreement have not been satisfied or if the Placement Agency Agreement may be terminated for any other reason permitted by the Placement Agency Agreement, then the Placement Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, terminate the Placement Agency Agreement, which shall have the effect of terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section I below.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent or the Placement Agent be liable for any special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent or the Placement Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. Each of the Escrow Agent and the Placement Agent shall be a third party beneficiary with respect to the covenants and agreements of the Investor contained in this Section A(5).

Such DWAC shall indicate the settlement date for the deposit of the Shares, which date shall be provided to the Investor by the Placement Agent. Unless the Company and the Investor agree to an alternative arrangement for payment of the Purchase Price for the Shares, upon receipt by the Company of the funds held in escrow pursuant to Section A(5) above, the Company shall direct the Transfer Agent to credit the Investor’s account or accounts with the Shares at the Closing pursuant to the information contained in such DWAC.

B. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company.

1. The Company represents and warrants to the Investor that: (a) the Company has the full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the Warrants and to perform and to discharge its obligations hereunder and thereunder; (b) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company, and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms; and (c) the Warrants have been duly authorized and, when executed and delivered by the Company, will constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, except, in the case of each of clauses (b) and (c), (x) as limited by laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors; (y) as limited by rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and by general principles of equity; and (z) to the extent any indemnification provisions contained therein may further be limited by applicable laws and principles of public policy.

1. The Investor represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Company that: (a) the Investor is knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in making, and is qualified to make decisions with respect to, investments in securities presenting an investment decision like that involved in the purchase of the Units, including investments in securities issued by the Company and investments in comparable companies, and has requested, received, reviewed and considered all information it deemed relevant in making an informed decision to purchase the Units, (b) the Investor has answered all questions on the Signature Page and the Investor Questionnaire for use in preparation of the Prospectus Supplement and the answers thereto are true and correct as of the date hereof and will be true and correct as of the Closing Date and (c) the Investor, in connection with its decision to purchase the number of Units set forth on the Signature Page, has reviewed the Disclosure Package and is relying only upon the Disclosure Package and the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein.

2. The Investor acknowledges, represents and agrees that no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction outside the United States by the Company or the Placement Agent that would permit an offering of the Units, or possession or distribution of offering materials in connection with the issue of the Securities in any jurisdiction outside the United States where action for that purpose is required. Each Investor outside the United States will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each foreign jurisdiction in which it purchases, offers, sells or delivers Securities or has in its possession or distributes any offering material, in all cases at its own expense. The Placement Agent is not authorized to make and has not made any representation or use of any information in connection with the issue, placement, purchase and sale of the Units, except as set forth or incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package.

3. The Investor further represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Company that: (a) the Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and (b) this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally and except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

4. The Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement, the Prospectus or any other materials in the Disclosure Package or otherwise presented to the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Units constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of Units.

5. The Investor represents, warrants and agrees that, since the earlier to occur of (a) the date on which the Placement Agent first contacted the Investor about the Offering and (b) the date of this Agreement, it has not engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company in violation of securities laws (including, without limitation, any short sales involving the Company’s securities). The Investor covenants that it will not engage in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including short sales) prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed. The Investor agrees that it will not use any of the Securities acquired pursuant to this Agreement to cover any short position in the Common Stock if doing so would be in violation of applicable securities laws. For purposes hereof, “short sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), whether or not against the box, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sales contracts, options, puts, calls, short sales, swaps, “put equivalent positions” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.

H. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, will constitute but one instrument, and will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered (including by fax or electronically) to the other parties.

Form of Warrant to Purchase Common Stock

AMICUS THERAPEUTICS, INC.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

To Purchase                                          Shares of Common Stock

Warrant No.:                     

Date of Issuance: March __, 2010

VOID AFTER March __, 2014

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received,                     , or permitted registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to subscribe for and purchase at the Exercise Price (defined below) from Amicus Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), up to                      shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company. This warrant is one of a series of warrants issued by the Company as of the date hereof (individually a “Warrant”; collectively, “Company Warrants”) pursuant to those certain subscription agreements between the Company and each of the investors, each dated as of February 25, 2010 (each, a “Subscription Agreement”) and pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act on Form S-3 (File No. 333-158405) (the “registration statement”), filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and declared effective on May 27, 2009.

1. DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have their respective meanings as set forth in the Subscription Agreement. As used herein, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

(A) “Eligible Market” means any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, The NASDAQ Global Market, The NASDAQ Global Select Market or The NASDAQ Capital Market.

(B) “Exercise Period” shall mean the period commencing six (6) months after the date hereof and ending four (4) years from the date hereof, unless sooner terminated as provided below.

(C) “Exercise Price” shall mean $4.43 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4 below.

(D) “Trading Day” shall mean (a) any day on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted and traded on its primary Trading Market, (b) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted and traded on any Eligible Market, then a day on which trading occurs on the OTC Bulletin Board (or any successor thereto), or (c) if trading does not occur on the OTC Bulletin Board (or any successor thereto), any business day.

(E) “Trading Market” shall mean the OTC Bulletin Board or any other Eligible Market, or any national securities exchange, market or trading or quotation facility on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted.

(F) “Warrant Shares” shall mean the shares of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.

2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT. The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the Exercise Period, by delivery of the following to the Company at its address set forth on the signature page hereto (or at such other address as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder):

(A) an executed written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”); and

(B) payment of the Exercise Price either (i) in cash or by check or (ii) provided that the conditions set forth in Section 2.1 are satisfied, pursuant to Section 2.1 below.

The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Notice of Exercise shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares, if any.

Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system if the Company’s transfer agent is a participant in such system, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Exercise Notice, in each case within three (3) business days from the delivery to the Company of the Exercise Notice and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on the date the Exercise Price is received by the Company.

The person in whose name any certificate or certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which payment of the Exercise Price was made, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to the DTC account of the Holder’s prime broker or the date of delivery of the certificate or certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, except that, if the date of such 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 opening of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.

Subject to Section 2.6 and the final sentence of this paragraph and to the extent permitted by law, the Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or entity or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other person or entity of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person or entity, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. The Holder shall have the right to pursue any remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

2.1. NET EXERCISE. If during the Exercise Period (a) a registration statement covering the Warrant Shares that are the subject of the Exercise Notice (the “Unavailable Warrant Shares”), or an exemption from registration, is not available for the issuance and resale of such Unavailable Warrant Shares, the Holder may, in its sole discretion or (b) the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one share of the Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash or by check, the Holder may effect a “net exercise” of this Warrant in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Exercise Price, in which event, if so effected, the Holder shall receive Warrant Shares equal to the value (as determined below) of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by delivery of the properly endorsed Notice of Exercise at the principal office of the Company, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of the Common Stock computed using the following formula (a “Net Exercise”):

		X		=		Y(A-B)
						A

Where X		=		the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
Y		=		the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised (which shall include both the number of Warrant Shares issued to the Holder and the number of Warrant Shares subject to the portion of the Warrant being cancelled in payment of the Exercise Price).
A		=		the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one share of the Common Stock (at the date of such calculation).
B		=		Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

For purposes of this Warrant, the “Fair Market Value” of one share of the Common Stock shall mean (i) the average of the closing sales prices for the shares of the Common Stock on The NASDAQ Global Market or other Eligible Market where the Common Stock is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets (or a comparable reporting service of national reputation selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Holder if Bloomberg Financial Markets is not then reporting sales prices of such security) (collectively, “Bloomberg”) for the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date of the exercise of the Warrant, or (ii) if an Eligible Market is not the principal Trading Market for the shares of the Common Stock, the average of the reported sales prices reported by Bloomberg on the principal Trading Market for the Common Stock during the same period, or, if there is no sales price for such period, the last sales price reported by Bloomberg for such period, or (iii) if neither of the foregoing applies, the last sales price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the pink sheets for such security as reported by Bloomberg, or if no sales price is so reported for such security, the last bid price of such security as reported by Bloomberg, or (iv) if fair market value cannot be calculated as of such date on any of the foregoing bases, the fair market value shall be as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in the exercise of its good faith judgment.

2.2. ISSUANCE OF NEW WARRANTS. Upon any partial exercise of this Warrant, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith and, in any event within five (5) business days, issue and deliver to the Holder a new warrant or warrants of like tenor, registered in the name of the Holder, exercisable, in the aggregate, for the balance of the number of shares of the Common Stock remaining available for purchase under this Warrant.

2.3. PAYMENT OF TAXES AND EXPENSES. The Company shall pay any recording, filing, stamp or similar tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance of, and the preparation and delivery of certificates (if applicable) representing, (i) any Warrant Shares purchased upon exercise of this Warrant and/or (ii) new or replacement warrants in the Holder’s name or the name of any transferee of all or any portion of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance, delivery or registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

2.4. RULE 144. For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as in effect on the date hereof, it is intended that the Warrant Shares issued in a Net Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the applicable Subscription Agreement.

2.5. DISPUTES. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Exercise Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares that are not disputed.

2.6. EXERCISE LIMITATIONS; HOLDER’S RESTRICTIONS. A Holder, other than an Excluded Holder, shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise, such Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, would beneficially own in excess of 9.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance.

For purposes of this Section 2.6, the number of shares of the Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of the Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other shares of the Common Stock or Warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2.6, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), it being acknowledged by a Holder that the Company is not representing to such Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and such Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2.6 applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which a portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of a Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be each Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 2.6, in determining the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of the Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by such Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of the Common Stock was reported. The provisions of this Section 2.6 may be waived by such Holder, at the election of such Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of this Section 2.6 shall continue to apply until such 61^st day (or such later date, as determined by such Holder, as may be specified in such notice of waiver). For purposes of this Section 2.6, an “Excluded Holder” shall mean a Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates) that beneficially owned in excess of 9.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date this Warrant was issued to such Holder; provided, however, that if thereafter such Holder (together with such Holder’s affiliates) shall beneficially own 9.9% or a percentage less than 9.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding, then such Holder shall cease to be an “Excluded Holder” hereunder.

3. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.

3.1. COVENANTS AS TO WARRANT SHARES. The Company covenants and agrees that all Warrant Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof. The Company further covenants and agrees that the Company will at all times during the Exercise Period have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of the Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant. If at any time during the Exercise Period the number of authorized but unissued shares of the Common Stock shall not be sufficient to permit exercise of this Warrant, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such corporate action in compliance with applicable law as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of the Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. The Company further covenants and agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Warrant Shares authorized for listing on at least one Eligible Market and to maintain an effective registration statement with the SEC with respect to the offer or sale of the Warrant Shares.

3.2. NOTICES OF RECORD DATE AND CERTAIN OTHER EVENTS. In the event of any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, the Company shall mail to the Holder, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution, a notice specifying such date. In the event of any voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, the Company shall mail to the Holder, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date of the occurrence of any such event, a notice specifying such date. In the event the Company authorizes or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating, or solicits stockholder approval for any Fundamental Transaction, as defined in Section 6 herein, the Company shall mail to the Holder, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date of the occurrence of such event, a notice specifying such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice.

4. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND SHARES. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4.

(A) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on the Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of the Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

(B) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, distributes to holders of the Common Stock (i) evidences of its indebtedness, (ii) any security (other than a distribution of the Common Stock covered by the preceding paragraph), (iii) rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, or (iv) any other asset (in each case, “Distributed Property”), then in each such case the Holder shall be entitled upon exercise of this Warrant for the purchase of any or all of the Warrant Shares, to receive the amount of Distributed Property which would have been payable to the Holder had such Holder been the holder of such Warrant Shares on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to such Distributed Property. The Company will at all times set aside in escrow and keep available for distribution to such holder upon exercise of this Warrant a portion of the Distributed Property to satisfy the distribution to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(C) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, the Company at its expense will, at the written request of the Holder, promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s transfer agent.

(D) No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least $0.0001; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 4(D) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided, further, however, that adjustments shall be required and made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 (other than this Section 4(D)) not later than such time as may be required in order to preserve the tax-free nature of a distribution, if any, to the Holder of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise hereof. All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the $0.0001 or to the nearest 1/1000th of a share, as the case may be. Anything in this Section 4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Exercise Price, in addition to those required by this Section 4, as it in its discretion shall deem to be advisable in order that any stock dividend, subdivision of shares or distribution of rights to purchase stock or securities convertible or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the Company to its stockholders shall not be taxable.

5. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant as a consequence of any adjustment pursuant hereto. All Warrant Shares (including fractions) issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the exercise would result in the issuance of any fractional share. If, after aggregation, the exercise would result in the issuance of a fractional share, the number of Warrant Shares to be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

6. FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS. If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another entity in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another entity shall be effected (any such transaction being hereinafter referred to as a “Fundamental Transaction”), then the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Exercise Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any share of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise thereof. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Holder, at the last address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant. Notice of any such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition and of said provisions so proposed to be made, shall be mailed to the Holders of the Warrants not less than twenty (20) days prior to such event. The provisions of this Section 6 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions, each of which transactions shall also constitute a Fundamental Transaction.

7. NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of the Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as this Warrant is outstanding, take all action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of the Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, 100% of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

8. NO STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. Other than as provided in Section 3.2 or otherwise herein, this Warrant in and of itself shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company.

9. TRANSFER OF WARRANT. Subject to applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon delivery of this Warrant and the form of assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B to any transferee designated by Holder. The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel. Any purported transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant in violation of the provisions of this Warrant shall be null and void.

10. LOST, STOLEN, MUTILATED OR DESTROYED WARRANT. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

11. NOTICES, ETC. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed facsimile to the facsimile number specified in writing by the recipient if sent during normal business hours of the recipient on a Trading Day, if not, then on the next Trading Day, (c) the next Trading Day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All communications shall be sent to the Company at the address listed on the signature page hereto and to Holder at the applicable address set forth on the applicable signature page to the Subscription Agreement or at such other address as the Company or Holder may designate by ten (10) days advance written notice to the other parties hereto.

12. ACCEPTANCE. Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder shall constitute acceptance of and agreement to all of the terms and conditions contained herein.

13. GOVERNING LAW. This Warrant and all rights, obligations and liabilities hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

14. AMENDMENT OR WAIVER. Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with the written consent of the Company and the holders of Company Warrants representing at least two-thirds of the number of shares of the Common Stock then subject to outstanding Company Warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) this Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term hereunder may be waived without the written consent of the Holder only in a manner which applies to all Company Warrants in the same fashion and (b) the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant and the Exercise Price of this Warrant may not be amended, and the right to exercise this Warrant may not be waived, without the written consent of the Holder. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Holder of any amendment hereof or waiver hereunder that was effected without the Holder’s written consent. No waivers of any term, condition or provision of this Warrant, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.

8. No consent, authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any United States federal or New York governmental authority or regulatory body, is required for the due execution, delivery or performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the issuance by the Company of the Shares and the Warrants, except as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, or except as may be required under the state securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction in the United States (as to which we express no opinion) in connection with the sale of the Shares and the Warrants.

On [•], 2010, a member of the staff of the SEC orally informed us that no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the Securities Act. To our knowledge, no proceedings for that purpose have been initiated or are pending or threatened by the Commission.

Exhibit E-1

OPINION OF BAKER BOTTS LLP

We have been retained by Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) as special intellectual property counsel to review the information relating to the Company’s intellectual property contained solely in the below specified sections of (a) the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2008 on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”) and the Company’s Quarterly Report for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 (the “Quarterly Report”) as incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and Prospectus (as defined in the Placement Agency Agreement) under the captions “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Intellectual Property,” and “Business — Intellectual Property” and (b) the Registration Statement under the caption “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Mt. Sinai School of Medicine License Agreement.” Baker Botts L.L.P. (“the Firm”) has represented the Company since 2006, during which time we have been engaged to prosecute certain U.S. patents and applications to the extent summarized in Schedule A, attached hereto, before the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”). We have never been engaged by the Company with respect to any licensing, litigation or trade secret matters.

We have not been retained or engaged by the Company to address or otherwise pass on any other information in the (A) registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on Form S-3 (File No. 333-158405) originally dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on April 3, 2009, as amended (the “Registration Statement”), including (i) all financial schedules and exhibits thereto and (ii) all documents incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, (B) the final prospectus supplement dated as of February [•], 2010 filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (the “Prospectus Supplement”), and (C) the issuer free writing prospectus dated as of February [•], 2010 filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433 of the Securities Act (the “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus” and, together with the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplement, the “Disclosure Package”), nor have we acted as counsel to the Company in any other capacity in connection with the offer and sale of securities on the date hereof to the purchaser of common stock listed on Exhibit 1 of the Placement Agency Agreement dated February [•], 2009 (the “Placement Agreement,”) among the Company and the Placement Agents set forth therein. This opinion is provided to you at the request of the Company pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Placement Agreement.

In our capacity as special intellectual property counsel to the Company and in the course of this representation, we have reviewed only the following sections (the “Sections”) under the captions “RISK FACTORS — Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property” and “BUSINESS — Intellectual Property” in the Annual Report and the Quarterly Report:

RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property

If we are unable to obtain and maintain protection for the intellectual property relating to our technology and products, the value of our technology and products will be adversely affected.

If we fail to comply with our obligations in our intellectual property licenses with third parties, we could lose license rights that are important to our business.

If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our proprietary information and know-how, the value of our technology and products could be adversely affected.

If we infringe or are alleged to infringe intellectual property rights of third parties, it will adversely affect our business.

BUSINESS

Intellectual Property — Patents and Trade Secrets
Intellectual Property — License Agreements

and the section (also a “Section”) captioned “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Mt. Sinai School of Medicine License Agreement” in the Registration Statement.

Specifically, based on facts known to us at this time and without having made an investigation, we are of the opinion as to the Company’s patents and patent applications owned by or exclusively licensed to the Company that both (a) were prosecuted by lawyers of the Firm while employed by the Firm or are being prosecuted by lawyers currently of the Firm and (b) listed in the attached Schedule A (the “Baker Botts-Prosecuted Patents”) and patents and patent applications owned by the Mount Sinai School of Medicine that we have not prosecuted and that have been licensed to the Company listed in the attached Schedule A (collectively with the Baker Botts-Prosecuted Patents, the “Patents”):

(i)

Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package, to our knowledge, no person or entity has asserted any ownership rights in any of the Patents other than the assignee identified in the records of the USPTO. To our knowledge, assignments have been executed that cover each of the Baker Botts-Prosecuted Patents that is a non-provisional patent application or issued patent, in which the named inventor(s) of such Baker Botts-Prosecuted Patents assigned their rights in those Baker Botts-Prosecuted Patents to the Company or Mt. Sinai, as appropriate. In those instances in the attached Schedule A where it is indicated that an assignment has not been recorded, our records nevertheless indicate that the inventor(s) of such applications or patents have assigned their rights in the inventions disclosed therein to either the Company or Mt. Sinai as appropriate. Schedule A reflects the publicly available assignment information of the USPTO’s website as of February  _____, 2010 for each of the U.S. Patents listed. To our knowledge, no liens have been filed against any of the Patents in the USPTO.

Exhibit E-1

OPINION OF HOFFMAN & BARON, LLP

We have been retained by Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) as special intellectual property counsel to review the information relating to the Company’s intellectual property contained solely in the below specified sections of (a) the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2008 on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”) and the Company’s Quarterly Report for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 (the “Quarterly Report”) as incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and Prospectus (as defined in the Placement Agency Agreement) under the captions “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Intellectual Property,” and “Business — Intellectual Property” and (b) the Registration Statement under the caption “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Mt. Sinai School of Medicine License Agreement.” Hoffmann & Baron, LLP (“the Firm”) has represented the Company since 2008, during which time we have been engaged to prosecute the U.S. patents and applications to the extent summarized in Schedule A, attached hereto, before the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”). We have never been engaged by the Company with respect to any licensing, litigation or trade secret matters.

We have not been retained or engaged by the Company to address or otherwise pass on any other information in the (A) registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on Form S-3 (File No. 333-158405) originally dated and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on April 3, 2009, as amended (the “Registration Statement”), including (i) all financial schedules and exhibits thereto and (ii) all documents incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, (B) the final prospectus supplement dated as of February [•], 2010 filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (the “Prospectus Supplement”), and (C) the issuer free writing prospectus dated as of February [•], 2010 filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433 of the Securities Act (the “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus” and, together with the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplement, the “Disclosure Package”), nor have we acted as counsel to the Company in any other capacity in connection with the offer and sale of securities on the date hereof to the purchaser of common stock listed on Exhibit 1 of the Placement Agency Agreement dated February [•], 2009 (the “Placement Agreement,”) among the Company and the Placement Agents set forth therein. This opinion is provided to you at the request of the Company pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Placement Agreement.

In our capacity as special intellectual property counsel to the Company and in the course of this representation, we have reviewed the following sections (the “Sections”) under the captions “RISK FACTORS — Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property” and “BUSINESS — Intellectual Property” in the Annual Report and the Quarterly Report:

RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property

If we are unable to obtain and maintain protection for the intellectual property relating to our technology and products, the value of our technology and products will be adversely affected.

If we fail to comply with our obligations in our intellectual property licenses with third parties, we could lose license rights that are important to our business.

If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our proprietary information and know-how, the value of our technology and products could be adversely affected.

If we infringe or are alleged to infringe intellectual property rights of third parties, it will adversely affect our business.

BUSINESS

Intellectual Property — Patents and Trade Secrets
Intellectual Property — License Agreements

and the section (also a “Section”) captioned “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Mt. Sinai School of Medicine License Agreement” in the Registration Statement.

Specifically, based on facts known to us at this time and without having made an investigation, we are of the opinion as to the Company’s patents and patent applications owned by or exclusively licensed to the Company that are and/or were both (a) prosecuted or are being prosecuted by us and (b) listed in the attached Schedule A (the “Owned Patents”) and patents and patent applications owned by third parties that we have not prosecuted and that have been licensed to the Company (collectively with the Owned Patents, the “Patents”):

(ii)

Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package, to our knowledge, no person or entity has asserted any ownership rights in any of the Patents other than the assignee identified in the records of the USPTO. In addition, for cases for which the Firm has drafted we have filed and recorded an assignment in the USPTO for each of the Owned Patents that is a non-provisional patent application or issued patent, in which the named inventor(s) of such Owned Patents assigned their rights in those Owned Patents to the Company or the Company’s licensor, as appropriate; or if the assignment has not been filed and/or recorded, we believe the Company is entitled to receive the assignment and the inventor(s) will provide the assignment. To our knowledge, no liens have been filed against any of the Patents in the USPTO.

(ii)

We believe the Firm, to the extent that it has been so engaged, has filed and/or prosecuted each of the U.S. Patents in accordance with the rules and regulations of the USPTO.

(iii)

We believe we have complied and are continuing to comply on an ongoing basis with the required duty of candor and good faith in dealing with the USPTO with respect to the U.S. Patents prosecuted or being prosecuted by the Firm, including the duty to disclose to the USPTO all information known to us to be material to the patentability of each of the U.S. Patents.

Although we have reviewed the foregoing listed Sections, we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy of, completeness of, or fairness of the statements in said Sections. Nonetheless, nothing has come to our attention that has caused us to believe that (i) as of the date hereof, the Sections contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary to make the statements in the Sections, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (ii) at [•] [a][p].m., Eastern time, on February [•], 2010 or on the date hereof, said Sections contained or contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements in said Sections, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Package, there is no claim, action, proceeding or litigation relating to the Patents or the patent rights of others that is pending or threatened against the Company before any court, governmental or administrative agency or body of which we are aware.

To the extent the statements made in said Sections constitute summaries of law, such statements, in our opinion, accurately summarize in all material respects the provisions of the laws, referred to therein. The opinions set forth in the above sentence are limited in all respects to U.S. federal patent law, each as in effect on the date hereof.

Phrases herein such as “to our knowledge,” “known to us,” or “of which we are aware,” and those with equivalent wording, refer to the conscious awareness (as such term has been interpreted under the Legal Opinion Accord of the ABA Section of Business Law (1991)) of information by the lawyers currently of this Firm who have performed services for the Company in connection with the prosecution of the Patents, without any independent investigation by any lawyer of this Firm.

We understand that, by making the request to us to provide this opinion to you, the Company does not intend to waive the attorney-client privilege with respect to any communications between the Company and the Firm or information that the Company has furnished to us. Moreover, please be advised that our response to you should not be construed in any way to constitute a waiver of the protection of the attorney work-product privilege with respect to any of our files involving the Company.

This response is further limited to inquiry of the lawyers currently in our Firm who have billed time to Company’s matters as of that date.

FORM OF LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

February ___, 2010

Leerink Swann LLC
One Federal Street, 37^th Floor
Boston, Massachusetts 02110

Re:   Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned is an owner of record or beneficially of certain shares of Common Stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock. The Company proposes to issue and sell units consisting of (i) one share of Common Stock and (ii) one warrant to purchase 0.375 of a share of Common Stock (the “Offering”) for which you will act as the exclusive placement agent. The undersigned acknowledges that you are relying on the representations and agreements of the undersigned contained in this letter in carrying out the Offering and in entering into placement arrangements with the Company with respect to the Offering.

In consideration of the foregoing, the undersigned hereby agrees that the undersigned will not (and will cause any spouse or immediate family member of the spouse or the undersigned living in the undersigned’s household not to), without the prior written consent of Leerink Swann LLC (the “Placement Agent”) (which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion), directly or indirectly, sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell (including without limitation any short sale), pledge, transfer, establish an open “put equivalent position” or liquidate or decrease a “call equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1(h) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise dispose of or transfer (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition of), including the filing (or participation in the filing) of a registration statement (except for a registration statement on Form S-8) with the Securities and Exchange Commission in respect of, any shares of Common Stock, options to acquire shares of Common Stock, or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock currently or hereafter owned either of record or beneficially (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) by the undersigned (or such spouse or family member), or publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing, for a period commencing on the date hereof and continuing through the close of trading on the date 60 days after the date of the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Offering (the “Lock-Up Period”). The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (i) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering, provided that no filing under Section 16(a) of the

Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be required or voluntarily made during the Lock-Up Period in connection with subsequent sales of Common Stock or other securities acquired in such open market transactions, (ii) transactions effected under any trading plan established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of Common Stock that has been entered into by the undersigned prior to the date of this agreement, (iii) a bona fide gift or gifts or (iv) the transfer of any or all of the shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock owned by the undersigned, either during the undersigned’s lifetime or on death, by gift, will or intestate succession to the immediate family of the undersigned or to a trust the beneficiaries of which are exclusively the undersigned and/or a member or members of the undersigned’s immediate family; provided, however, that in each of (iii) and (iv) above, it shall be a condition to such transfer that the transferee executes and delivers to the Placement Agent an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the Common Stock subject to the provisions of this letter agreement, and there shall be no further transfer of such Common Stock except in accordance with this letter; and, provided, further, that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (iii) or (iv) above, no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be required or shall be made voluntarily in connection with such transfer (other than a filing on a Form 5 made after expiration of the Lock-Up Period). In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, it will not, during the Lock-Up Period, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock.

If (i) the Company issues an earnings release or material news, or a material event relating to the Company occurs, during the last 17 days of the Lock-Up Period, or (ii) prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the Lock-Up Period, the restrictions imposed by this agreement shall continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event, unless the Placement Agent waives, in writing, such extension. The undersigned hereby acknowledges that the Company has agreed in the Placement Agency Agreement to provide notice of any event that would result in an extension of the Lock-Up Period pursuant to the previous paragraph to the undersigned (in accordance with Section 5(h) of the Placement Agency Agreement) and agrees that any such notice properly delivered will be deemed to have given to, and received by, the undersigned. The undersigned hereby further agrees that, prior to engaging in any transaction or taking any other action that is subject to the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement during the period from the date of this Lock-Up Agreement to and including the 34th day following the expiration of the initial Lock-Up Period, it will give notice thereof to the Company and will not consummate such transaction or take any such action unless it has received written confirmation from the Company that the Lock-Up Period (as such may have been extended pursuant to the previous paragraph) has expired.

The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock held by the undersigned except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

It is understood that if the Company advises the Placement Agent in writing that the parties do not intend to proceed with the Offering, or if either the Company or the Placement Agent shall advise the other party in writing that the Offering has been terminated, then the undersigned will be released from its obligations under this agreement.

With respect to the Offering only, the undersigned waives any registration rights relating to registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of any Common Stock owned either of record or beneficially by the undersigned, including any rights to receive notice of the Offering.

This agreement is irrevocable and will be binding on the undersigned and the respective successors, heirs, personal representatives, and assigns of the undersigned.
