(each individually, the “Seller” and collectively, the “Sellers”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Sellers are the collective owners of 2,700,000 shares of the Issuer’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), and

WHEREAS, each Seller desires to sell to the Issuer, and the Issuer desires to re-purchase from each Seller, the amount of shares of Common Stock listed on Schedule A, attached hereto, equaling an aggregate amount of 2,700,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”), on and subject to the terms of this Agreement;

WHEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Sale of the Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and in reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, the Sellers shall sell the Shares to the Issuer, and the Issuer shall re-purchase the Shares from the Sellers, for a purchase price equal to an aggregate sum of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000), less the aggregate liabilities of Issuer resulting from fees and disbursements of its attorneys, accountants and other service providers (the “Professional Fees”) incurred by the Issuer on or prior to completion of the Merger (as defined below) (the “Purchase Price”). Each Seller shall be entitled to his or her own pro rata share of the Purchase Price.

2. Closing.

(a) The purchase and sale of the Shares shall take place at a closing (the “Closing”), to occur concurrently with the completion of the merger transaction (the “Merger”) contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger of even date herewith (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Issuer, Cougar Biotechnology, Inc. and SRKP Acquisition Corp. The parties hereto shall have no obligation to complete the Closing in the event the Merger is not consummated.

(b) At the Closing:

(i) The Sellers shall deliver to the Issuer certificates representing the Shares, duly endorsed in form for transfer to the Issuer.

(ii) The Issuer shall pay to each Seller such Seller’s pro rata share of the Purchase Price for the Shares.


(iii) At and at any time after the Closing, the parties shall duly execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further assignments, conveyances, instruments and documents, and shall take such other action consistent with the terms of this Agreement to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Issuer agrees that it shall cause its current management to execute such certificates, auditor representation letters and other representations (“Certifications”) as the Issuer may reasonably request in order to enable the Issuer to prepare and file future reports with the Commission, including the Issuer’s Report on Form 8-K relating to this Agreement, and shall take such steps as may be necessary to facilitate the Issuer’s auditor’s preparation of the financial statements and its report related thereto for the year ended December 31, 2005. Any such Certifications shall treat only periods and events prior to Closing.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Issuer and Seller. The Issuer and Sellers hereby jointly and severally make the following representations and warranties to each other and each only as to itself, provided, that the Seller makes no representations and warranties other than with respect to itself and the Shares to be sold hereunder:

(a) The Issuer is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each Seller is a citizen of the Unites States of America. The Issuer has the corporate power to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified and in good standing would have a material adverse effect on the Issuer. Each Seller has the requisite power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder. The Issuer is not in violation of any of the provisions of its certificate of incorporation or by-laws. No consent, approval or agreement of any individual or entity is required to be obtained by the Issuer in connection with the execution and performance by the Issuer of this Agreement or the execution and performance by the Issuer of any agreements, instruments or other obligations entered into in connection with this Agreement. The Issuer has no subsidiary, other than SRKP Acquisition Corp., and it does not have any equity investment or other interest, direct or indirect, in, or any outstanding loans, advances or guarantees to or on behalf of, any domestic or foreign individual or entity.

(b) The Issuer has authorized capital stock consisting of 100,000,000 shares of Issuer Common Stock, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), of which 2,700,000 shares of Common Stock, including the Shares, and no shares of Preferred Stock are presently issued and outstanding. Sellers own the Shares free and clear of all any and all liens, claims, encumbrances, preemptive rights, right of first refusal and adverse interests of any kind. The Issuer has not created or authorized any series of Preferred Stock and has no obligation or understanding to do so.

(c) There is no private or governmental action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or investigation pending before any agency, court or tribunal, foreign or domestic, or, to the Issuer’s Best Knowledge, threatened against the Issuer or any of its properties or any of its officers or directors (in their capacities as such). There is no judgment, decree or order against the Issuer that could prevent, enjoin, alter or delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The term “Best Knowledge” of the Issuer shall mean and include (i) actual knowledge and (ii) that knowledge which a prudent businessperson would reasonably have obtained in the management of such Person’s business affairs after making due inquiry and exercising the due diligence which a prudent businessperson should have made or exercised, as applicable, with respect thereto. Actual or imputed knowledge of any director or officer or Sellers shall be deemed to be knowledge of the Issuer.

- 2 -

(d) There are no material claims, actions, suits, proceedings, inquiries, labor disputes or investigations (whether or not purportedly on behalf of the Issuer) pending or, to the Issuer’s Best Knowledge, threatened against the Issuer or any of its assets, at law or in equity or by or before any governmental entity or in arbitration or mediation. No bankruptcy, receivership or debtor relief proceedings are pending or, to the best of the Issuer’s knowledge, threatened against the Issuer.

(e) The Issuer has complied with, is not in violation of, and has not received any notices of violation with respect to, any federal, state, local or foreign Law, judgment, decree, injunction or order, applicable to it, the conduct of its business, or the ownership or operation of its business. References in this Agreement to “Laws” shall refer to any laws, rules or regulations of any federal, state or local government or any governmental or quasi-governmental agency, bureau, commission, instrumentality or judicial body (including, without limitation, any federal or state securities law, regulation, rule or administrative order).

(f) The Issuer has properly filed all tax returns required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown thereon to be due. To the Best Knowledge of the Issuer, all tax returns previously filed are true and correct in all material respects.

(g) Richard Rappaport is the President and director of the Issuer. Anthony Pintsopoulos is the Secretary, Chief Financial Officer and director of the Issuer. The Issuer has no other officers, directors or employees.

(h) The Issuer has no outstanding liabilities or obligations to any party except as reflected on the Issuer’s Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended September 30, 2005, other than charges since such date similar to those incurred in past periods and consistent with past practice, all of which will be discharged prior to or at the Closing so that, at the Closing, the Issuer will have no direct, contingent or other obligations of any kind or any commitment or contractual obligations of any kind and description.

(i) All of the business and financial transactions of the Issuer have been fully and properly reflected in the books and records of the Issuer in all material respects and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

(j) The Issuer is current with its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). None of the Issuer’s filings made pursuant to the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Issuer SEC Documents”) contain any misstatements of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading. The Issuer SEC Documents, as of their respective dates, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and are available on the Commission’s EDGAR system. There has not occurred any material adverse change, or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business or operations of the Issuer, from that set forth in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended September 30, 2005.

(k) As of the Closing, the Issuer will have assets sufficient to satisfy its payment obligations set forth in Section 1 hereof and the redemption contemplated hereby shall be permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Issuer and Sellers and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in any material violation of the Issuer’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws or any applicable Law, including without limitation, the Delaware General Corporation Law.
