For example, if a [****] milestone payment were first triggered with an [****], then [****] would be payable, and if the same milestone were [****] than an [****], then the [****] would be payable. If a milestone payment is made with respect to [****], no further milestone payment shall be payable if the corresponding milestone event is subsequently achieved [****]. In no event shall Amgen owe any milestone payments in excess of the milestone payment amounts listed in the tables above for achievement of the corresponding milestone events, regardless of how many times such corresponding milestone events are achieved by one or more products. 7.3 Commercialization Milestone Payments. The following milestone payments will be payable by Amgen to Predix within thirty (30) days of the end of the Calendar Year in which Amgen (and its Affiliates and Sublicensees, as applicable) first achieves the following annual Net Sales of all Program Products in all countries in the Territory (including all indications and formulations for such Program Products): Upon annual Net Sales in excess of [****] [****] Upon annual Net Sales in excess of [****] [****] Upon annual Net Sales in excess of [****] [****]
The total amount that may become payable by Amgen to Predix under this Section 7.3 shall be [****].

[****], then [****] would be payable by Amgen to Predix under this Section 7.3. Subject to Section 6.3 and 6.4, if Predix decides to include Net Sales of an Acquired Product in the annual Net Sales of Program Products to satisfy the requirements for meeting any of the above milestones, then a reduced milestone payment shall become due and payable as determined in accordance with the following formula: [****] [****] [****] [****] [****] Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a [****] is paid hereunder, and if annual Net Sales for any one or more subsequent Calendar Years would, under the formula above, trigger the payment of a [********] of such milestone payment, then, an amount equal to such [********] will become due and payable as one or more [********]. Such [********] shall be due and payable, if at all, within thirty (30) days following the Calendar Year in respect of which they are earned. In no event shall the achievement of any milestone event require payment(s) in the aggregate in excess of the full amount of the corresponding milestone payment (regardless of how many times such milestone event is achieved). 7.4 Royalty Payments. 7.4.1 Subject to the other provisions of this Section 7.4, Amgen shall pay to Predix the following royalty payments on the total aggregate annual Net Sales in the Territory of all Program Products (including all indications and formulations for such Program Products) in a particular Calendar Year by Amgen, its Affiliates, and Sublicensees in the Territory.
Annual Net Sales Royalties - ---------------- --------- For that portion of annual Net Sales of [****] [****] For that portion of annual Net Sales of [****] [****] For that portion of annual Net Sales of [****] and above [****]
By way of example, in a given Calendar Year, if the aggregate annual worldwide Net Sales for all Program Products is [****], the following royalty payment would be payable under this Section 7.4.1 (subject to the reductions set forth below): [****]. Only one royalty shall be due with respect to the same unit of Program Product. 7.4.2 Certain Reductions.

(b) If PRX-13038 (or any hydrates, anhydrates, solvates, salt forms, free acids, complexes, conjugates, polymorphs, in all forms, presentations and formulations thereof) has not been entered by Amgen, or an Affiliate or Sublicensee, into GLP Toxicology Studies, then the applicable royalty rates for all Program Products shall be [****] (so that the range of [****] payable hereunder would be [****] for all [****] and [****] percent for all Acquired Products, subject to any applicable [****] herein), unless and until PRX-13038 (or any hydrates, anhydrates, solvates, salt forms, free acids, complexes, conjugates, polymorphs, in all forms, presentations and formulations thereof) is entered by Amgen, or an Affiliate or Sublicensee, into GLP Toxicology Studies. For purposes of this Section 7.4.2(b), the term "GLP Toxicology Studies" shall mean a toxicology study conducted under Good Laboratory Practice regulations, and [****]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Amgen initiates a Phase 1 Trial with a Program Product comprised of or including PRX-13038 (or any hydrates, anhydrates, solvates, salt forms, free acids, complexes, conjugates, polymorphs, in all forms, presentations and formulations thereof) then there will be [****] under this Section 7.4.2(b) thereafter. (c) The reductions set forth in this Section 7.4.2, if applicable, shall be applied prior to any other applicable reductions to the royalties set forth in this Agreement. 7.4.3 Royalty Term. The applicability of royalties under this Section 7.4 shall be determined on a product-by-product and country-by-country basis, based on the Royalty Term applicable to the specific Program Product. Net Sales to which royalties are applicable shall then be aggregated in the Territory for all Program Products to determine the appropriate royalty rate(s) under Section 7.4.1 (subject to any applicable reductions thereto provided for herein). 7.4.4 Royalty Reduction for Generic Competition. The royalty amounts otherwise payable under Section 7.4.1 (after application of Section 7.4.2) with respect to a Program Product shall be reduced on a country-by-country basis upon (a) the expiration or termination of the last Valid Claim within the Program Patents claiming the manufacture, use, sale or importation of such Program Product in such country (regardless of any continuing Program Patents claiming the manufacture, use, sale or importation of such Program Product in any other country), in which case the royalty rate for Net Sales in such country shall be reduced to [****] of the royalty rate otherwise applicable, and/or (b) the Approval of a Generic Product in such country, in which case the royalty rate for Net Sales in such country shall be reduced to [****] of the royalty rate otherwise applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the reduction to the royalties described in this Section 7.4.4, when combined with any reduction under Section 7.4.5, reduce the royalties payable under Section 7.4.1 (after application of Section 7.4.2) by more than [****]. 7.4.5 Third Party Royalty Payments. If [****] determines that [****] in a particular country to obtain a license or similar rights under patent rights controlled by a Third Party in order to [****], then Amgen shall be entitled to offset up to [****] of the reasonable amounts paid from time-to-time to such Third Party to permit the [****] in such country against royalties that would otherwise have been payable hereunder (after any reduction under Section 7.4.2) to Predix upon sales of the applicable Program Product in such country. Amgen (or its Affiliate or Sublicensee) shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the amount of any of the foregoing payments owed to Third Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the reduction to the royalties described in this Section 7.4.5, when combined with any -24- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. reduction under Section 7.4.4, reduce the royalties payable under Section 7.4.1 (after application of Section 7.4.2) by more than [****]. Predix shall be responsible for all payments due to Third Parties under licenses and/or other agreements between Predix and such Third Parties with respect to Program Products. 7.5 Manner of Payment. All payments to be made by Amgen hereunder, with the exception of the initial payment as provided in Section 7.1, shall be made in Dollars by check, wire transfer or electronic funds transfer, at Amgen's option, as follows: (a) If by wire transfer, to such United States bank account as shall be designated by Predix.

In no event shall such audits be conducted hereunder more frequently [****], and books and records for any particular year shall only be subject to one audit. Such accountant must have agreed in writing with Amgen to maintain all information learned in confidence, except as necessary to disclose to Predix such compliance or noncompliance by Amgen, and not to use such information for any purpose other than the purpose of the audit under this Section 7.7. The independent accountant or Predix shall provide to Amgen a copy of the independent accountant's report promptly after it is first provided to Predix. The report and communication of such accountant to Predix with respect to such inspection shall be limited to a certificate stating whether any report made or payment submitted by Amgen during such period is accurate or inaccurate and the amount of any payment discrepancy, regardless if the discrepancy is favorable or unfavorable to Predix. Predix shall pay for such inspections, except that in the event there is any upward adjustment in aggregate royalties payable for any year shown by such inspection of more than [****] of the amount paid, Amgen shall pay for such inspection. Any underpayments shall be paid by Amgen within [********] of notification of the results of such inspection. Any [****] shall be [****] payable in subsequent payment periods; provided that, if [****] are payable from [****] prior to termination or expiration of the Agreement, then [****] shall promptly thereafter pay to [****] the [****] of [****].

All payments shall be made in Dollars. 7.9 Tax Withholding. The withholding tax, duties, and other levies (if any) applied by a government of any country of the Territory on payments made by Amgen to Predix hereunder shall be borne by Predix. Amgen, its Affiliates and Sublicensees shall cooperate with Predix to enable Predix to claim exemption therefrom under any double taxation or similar agreement in force and shall provide to Predix proper evidence of payments of withholding tax and reasonably assist Predix by obtaining or providing in as far as possible the required documentation for the purpose of Predix's tax returns. 7.10 Interest Due. Without limiting any other rights or remedies available to Predix, Amgen shall pay Predix interest on any payments that are not paid on or before the date such payments are due under this Agreement at [****], or the maximum rate permitted by law, if less. 7.11 Change of Reporting Periods. In the event that Amgen elects in the future to change its accounting and public financial reporting practices from Calendar Quarters and Calendar Years to fiscal quarters and years or vice versa, Amgen will provide written notice of such election to Predix and thereafter the payment, reporting and other obligations related to Calendar Quarters and Calendar Years under Article 7 of this Agreement shall be deemed satisfied by compliance therewith in accordance with the new reporting periods (fiscal reporting periods or calendar reporting periods, as the case may be) instead of the previously utilized reporting periods.

ARTICLE 9 PATENT MAINTENANCE; INFRINGEMENT; EXTENSIONS 9.1 Ownership of Inventions. Inventorship of inventions conceived or reduced to practice in the course of activities performed under or contemplated by this Agreement shall be determined by application of United States patent Laws pertaining to inventorship. If such inventions are jointly invented by one or more employees, consultants or contractors of each Party, such inventions shall be jointly owned ("Joint Invention"), and if one or more claims included in an issued patent or pending patent application arising out of the Collaboration claim such Joint Invention and, under U.S. patent law, would require the naming of at least one co-inventor who is an employee, consultant or contractor of Amgen and/or its Affiliates, and at least one co-inventor who is an employee, consultant or contractor of Predix and/or its Affiliates, such claims shall be jointly owned ("Joint Patents").

Each Party shall enter into binding agreements, or have entered into binding agreements that are still effective, obligating its employees performing activities under or contemplated by this Agreement, including activities related to the Program Compounds or Program Products, to assign his/her interest in any invention conceived or reduced to practice in the course of such activities to such Party. 9.2 Filing, Prosecution and Maintenance. 9.2.1 Mutual Obligations. The Parties shall perform their respective obligations with respect to the preparation, filing, prosecution (including any interferences, reissue proceedings and reexaminations), maintenance and defense of the Patent Rights hereunder in accordance with practices customary in the pharmaceutical industry, using Commercially Reasonable Efforts, in a manner reasonably intended to result in obtaining and maintaining a patent estate conforming to such customary practices in the pharmaceutical industry. 9.2.2 Prior to IP Transition Date. Predix shall have responsibility and control, using outside patent counsel mutually agreeable to the Parties, for the preparation, filing, prosecution (including any interferences, reissue proceedings and reexaminations) and maintenance of the Licensed Patents using efforts and care consistent with the standard set forth in Section 9.2.1 from the Effective Date until the earlier of (i) twenty four (24) months after the Effective Date or (ii) the start of a Phase 1 Trial for the first Program Product (the earlier of such dates, the "IP Transition Date"). Except as set forth in this Section 9.2.2 and in Section 9.3.1, Predix shall be responsible for all costs and expenses related to such preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of Licensed Patents during such period. Amgen shall have the right to review and comment on such preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents and Predix will consult with and reasonably consider in good faith Amgen's comments thereon. To that end, Predix shall instruct such outside counsel to furnish Amgen with a reasonably complete draft of each submission to a patent authority regarding Licensed Patents no later than twenty (20) days prior to the date such submission is proposed to be made, or if given less than twenty (20) days to respond by the applicable patent authority or Law as soon as practicable. Additionally, Predix shall instruct such outside counsel to provide Amgen with a copy of each submission made to and document received from a patent authority regarding any Licensed Patents reasonably promptly after making such filing or receiving such document. Predix shall not knowingly take any action during filing, prosecution or maintenance of the Licensed Patents that would materially adversely affect them (including in claim scope), without prior notice to Amgen. Amgen may file a notice with governmental patent offices of the exclusive license to the Licensed Patents granted to Amgen hereunder and, if requested by Amgen, Predix agrees to sign such notices. From time to time, Amgen may request in writing that Predix file a Licensed Patent in a particular country and within thirty (30) days thereafter, Predix will notify Amgen in writing of whether or not Predix elects to do so; provided that [********] shall [********] by the standard set forth in [********]. If Predix notifies Amgen that Predix has determined not to file such Licensed Patent in such country, then Amgen shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume responsibility and control (using outside patent counsel mutually acceptable to the Parties), at Amgen's cost, to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Licensed Patent in such country using efforts and care consistent with the standard set forth in Section 9.2. In such event, the rights and obligations of the Parties under Section -30- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. 9.2.3 shall thereafter apply to such Licensed Patent in such country (regardless of the fact that the IP Transition Date has not yet then occurred). 9.2.3 After IP Transition Date. From and after the IP Transition Date until the termination of this Agreement, Amgen shall have responsibility and control, using outside patent counsel mutually agreeable to the Parties, for the preparation, filing, prosecution (including any interferences, reissue proceedings and reexaminations) and maintenance of Licensed Patents in the Territory using efforts and care consistent with the standard set forth in Section 9.2.1. Except as set forth in this Section 9.2.3 and in Section 9.3.2, Amgen shall be responsible for all costs and expenses related to such preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of Licensed Patents during such period. Upon the occurrence of the IP Transition Date, Predix and Amgen shall cooperate in the prompt transition of responsibility and control over the Licensed Patents from Predix to Amgen, including the transfer of such documents and files and the execution of such documents as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to facilitate Amgen's responsibility and control over the Licensed Patents thereafter. Predix shall have the right to review and comment on such preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patents and Amgen will consult with and reasonably consider in good faith Predix's comments thereon. To that end, Amgen shall instruct such outside counsel to furnish Predix with a reasonably complete draft of each submission to a patent authority regarding the Licensed Patents no later than twenty (20) days prior to the date such submission is proposed to be made, or if given less than twenty (20) days to respond by the applicable patent authority or Law as soon as practicable. Additionally, Amgen shall instruct such outside counsel to provide Predix with a copy of each submission made to and document received from a patent authority regarding any Licensed Patents reasonably promptly after making such filing or receiving such document. Amgen shall not knowingly take any action during filing, prosecution or maintenance of the Licensed Patents that would materially adversely affect them (including in claim scope), without prior notice to Predix. From time to time, Predix may request in writing that Amgen file a Licensed Patent in a particular country and within thirty (30) days thereafter, Amgen will notify Predix in writing of whether or not Amgen elects to do so; provided that [********] shall [********] by the standard set forth in [********]. If Amgen notifies Predix that Amgen has determined not to file such Licensed Patent in such country, then Predix shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume responsibility and control (using outside patent counsel mutually acceptable to the Parties), at Predix's cost, to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Licensed Patent in such country. In such event, the rights and obligations of the Parties under Section 9.2.2 shall thereafter apply to such Licensed Patent in such country. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Amgen reasonably determines that the filing and/or prosecution of any such patent application would be contrary to the standard set forth in Section 9.2.1, for example because it may trigger a dispute that would put a Licensed Patent at risk under unfavorable circumstances, then Predix shall cease to file or prosecute any such patent application. 9.2.4 Joint Patents. Amgen shall have responsibility and control, using outside patent counsel mutually agreeable to the Parties, for the preparation, filing, prosecution (including any interferences, reissue proceedings and reexaminations) and maintenance of Joint Patents using efforts and care consistent with the standard set forth in Section 9.2.1. Predix shall have the right to review and comment on such preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of the Joint Patents and Amgen will consult with and reasonably consider in good faith Predix's comments thereon. To that end, Amgen shall instruct such outside counsel to furnish Predix -31- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. with a reasonably complete draft of each submission to a patent authority regarding the Joint Patents no later than twenty (20) days prior to the date such submission is proposed to be made, or if given less than twenty (20) days to respond by the applicable patent authority or Law as soon as practicable. Additionally, Amgen shall instruct such outside counsel to provide Predix with a copy of each submission made to and document received from a patent authority regarding any Joint Patents reasonably promptly after making such filing or receiving such document. Amgen shall not knowingly take any action during filing, prosecution or maintenance of the Joint Patents that would materially adversely affect them (including in claim scope), without prior notice to Predix. From time to time, Predix may request in writing that Amgen file a Joint Patents in a particular country and within thirty (30) days thereafter, Amgen will notify Predix in writing of whether or not Amgen elects to do so; provided that [********] shall [********] by the standard set forth in [********]. If Amgen notifies Predix that Amgen has determined not to file such Joint Patent in such country, then Predix shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume responsibility and control (using outside patent counsel mutually acceptable to the Parties), at Predix's cost, to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain such Joint Patent in such country. In such event, the rights and obligations of the Parties under Section 9.2.2 shall thereafter apply to such Joint Patent in such country. 9.2.5 Not Affecting Licenses. The allocation of responsibility and control of Licensed Patents and Joint Patents in this Section 9.2 shall not alter or change the licenses or rights of the Parties in such patent rights hereunder. 9.3 Patent Abandonment. 9.3.1 Predix Controlled Patent Rights. For any Licensed Patents and Joint Patents that Predix has responsibility and control for filing, prosecution or maintenance, Predix will not knowingly permit any of such patent rights to be abandoned in any country in the Territory if such abandonment would be [********] to the standard set forth in [********]. Accordingly, Predix shall provide Amgen with notice of the allowance and expected issuance date of any patent within such patent rights, or any of the aforementioned filing deadlines, and Amgen shall provide Predix with notice within thirty (30) days thereafter as to whether Amgen desires Predix to file such new patent application. In the event that Predix decides not to continue the prosecution or maintenance of a patent application or patent within such patent rights in any country, Predix shall provide Amgen with notice of this decision at least thirty (30) days prior to any pending lapse or abandonment thereof. In such event, Predix shall provide Amgen with an opportunity to assume responsibility for all subsequent external costs reasonably associated with the filing and/or further prosecution and maintenance of such patent application and any patent issuing thereon (such filing to occur prior to the issuance of the patent to which the application claims priority or expiration of the applicable filing deadline, as set forth above). Amgen shall notify Predix of any election to assume such responsibility within thirty (30) days after receipt of Predix's notice. In the event that Amgen elects to assume such responsibility (through outside patent counsel mutually acceptable to the Parties) for such filing, prosecution and/or maintenance costs, Predix and Amgen shall cooperate in the prompt transition of responsibility and control over such patent right from Predix to Amgen, including the transfer of such documents and files and the execution of such documents as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to facilitate Amgen's responsibility and control over such patent right thereafter. -32- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. The rights and obligations of the Parties under Section 9.2.3 shall thereafter apply to such patent right in such country. 9.3.2 Amgen Controlled Patent Rights. For any Licensed Patents and Joint Patents that Amgen has responsibility and control for filing, prosecution or maintenance, Amgen will not knowingly permit any of such patent rights to be abandoned in any country in the Territory if such abandonment would be [********] to the standard set forth in [********]. Accordingly, Amgen shall provide Predix with notice of the allowance and expected issuance date of any patent within such patent rights, or any of the aforementioned filing deadlines, and Predix shall provide Amgen with notice within thirty (30) days thereafter as to whether Predix desires Amgen to file such new patent application. In the event that Amgen decides not to continue the prosecution or maintenance of a patent application or patent within such patent rights in any country, Amgen shall provide Predix with notice of this decision at least thirty (30) days prior to any pending lapse or abandonment thereof. In such event, Amgen shall provide Predix with an opportunity to assume responsibility for all subsequent external costs reasonably associated with the filing and/or further prosecution and maintenance of such patent application and any patent issuing thereon (such filing to occur prior to the issuance of the patent to which the application claims priority or expiration of the applicable filing deadline, as set forth above). Predix shall notify Amgen of any election to assume such responsibility within thirty (30) days after receipt of Amgen's notice. In the event that Predix elects to assume such responsibility (through outside patent counsel mutually acceptable to the Parties) for such filing, prosecution and/or maintenance costs, Predix and Amgen shall cooperate in the prompt transition of responsibility and control over such patent right from Amgen to Predix, including the transfer of such documents and files and the execution of such documents as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to facilitate Predix's responsibility and control over such patent right thereafter. The rights and obligations of the Parties under Section 9.2.2 shall thereafter apply to such patent right in such country. 9.4 Enforcement Against Infringers. 9.4.1 Enforcement by Amgen. Predix grants to Amgen the right to enforce the Licensed Patents and Joint Patents. In the event that Predix or Amgen becomes aware of a suspected infringement of any Licensed Patent or Joint Patent, or any such Licensed Patent or Joint Patent is challenged in any action or proceeding (other than any interferences, reissue proceedings or reexaminations, which are addressed above), such Party shall notify the other Party promptly, and following such notification, the Parties shall confer. Subject to Section 9.4.2, Amgen shall have the sole right, but, except as and to the extent [********] with the standard set forth in [********] above, shall not be obligated, to (i) defend any such action or proceeding or bring an infringement action with respect to such infringement at its own expense, in its own name and entirely under its own direction and control, subject to the following, or (ii) settle any such action, proceeding or dispute by license. Predix shall reasonably assist Amgen (at Amgen's expense) in any action or proceeding being defended or prosecuted if so requested, and shall lend its name to such actions or proceedings if reasonably requested by Amgen or required by applicable Law. Predix shall have the right to participate and be represented in any such suit by its own counsel at its own expense. No settlement of any such action or proceeding which restricts the scope, or adversely affects the enforceability, of a Licensed Patent or Joint Patent may be entered into by Amgen without the prior written consent of Predix, which consent -33- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. For clarification, Predix shall not be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 9.4 that would violate any court or government order or decree to which Predix is then subject, provided in such event, Predix shall timely grant to Amgen such rights as may be necessary for Amgen to exercise its rights under this Section 9.4 (including defending or enforcing any Licensed Patents and Joint Patents) without Predix's involvement. 9.4.2 Enforcement by Predix. If Amgen elects not to, or fails within a reasonable amount of time after receipt of notice of infringement, to take any action to prevent, terminate or limit any infringement described in Section 9.4.1, then Predix may notify Amgen that Predix desires to defend or bring such action at its own expense, in its own name and entirely under its own direction and control, and it shall be free to do so unless within a period of [********] after receipt by Amgen of such notice, Amgen notifies Predix of Amgen's decision to take action under this Section 9.4.2 and Amgen [********] within a reasonable period of time but no later than the time specified by Amgen in such notice, if any, subject to the following. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Amgen reasonably determines that such action would be [********] to the standard set forth in [********], for example because it may [********] that would put a [********] under [********] circumstances, Amgen may notify Predix thereof. In such event Predix will not have the right to take such action. If Amgen notifies Predix that Predix may proceed with such action, Amgen shall reasonably assist Predix (at Predix's expense) in any such action or proceeding being defended or prosecuted if so requested, and shall lend its name to such actions or proceedings if requested by Predix or required by applicable Law. Amgen shall have the right to participate and be represented in any such suit by its own counsel at its own expense. No settlement of any such action or proceeding which restricts the scope, or adversely affects the enforceability, of a Licensed Patent or Joint Patent may be entered into by Predix without the prior written consent of Amgen, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. 9.4.3 Withdrawal. If either Party brings an action or proceeding under this Section 9.4 and subsequently ceases to pursue or withdraws from such action or proceeding, it shall promptly notify the other Party. 9.4.4 Damages. In the event that either Party exercises the rights conferred in this Section 9.4 and recovers any damages or other sums in such action, suit or proceeding or in settlement thereof, such damages or other sums recovered shall first be applied to all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in connection therewith, including attorneys fees. If such recovery is insufficient to cover all such costs and expenses of both Parties, it shall first be allocated to the costs and expenses incurred by the Party that controlled such enforcement or defense and then to the costs and expenses of the other Party. If after such reimbursement any funds shall remain from such damages or other sums recovered, such funds shall be retained by the Party that controlled such enforcement or defense under this Section 9.4; provided, however, that if [********] is the Party that controlled such action or proceeding, [********] shall receive out of any such remaining recovery received by [********] the following amounts: (i) for amounts awarded to [********] for [****], an amount equivalent to [****] that [****] under this Agreement [****] if the [****] that were the basis [****] were actually [****] made [****] hereunder, and (ii) [****] of the remaining recovered amounts. -34- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. 9.5 Patent Term Extension. Predix and Amgen shall each cooperate with one another in obtaining patent term extension (including any pediatric exclusivity extensions as may be available) or supplemental protection certificates or their equivalents in any country with respect to patent rights claiming the Program Products. If elections with respect to obtaining such patent term extensions are to be made, Amgen shall have the right to make the election to seek patent term extension or supplemental protection, provided that, such election will be made so as to maximize the period of marketing exclusivity for the Program Product. 9.6 Notification of Patent Certification. Each Party shall promptly give notice to the other Party of any notice it receives of certification filed under the Hatch-Waxman Act (or a foreign equivalent thereof) in respect of any Program Product and claiming that any of the Licensed Patents and/or Joint Patents is invalid, unenforceable or that any infringement will not arise from the manufacture, use or sale of the product by a Third Party. Amgen shall have the sole and exclusive right to bring infringement proceedings in its reasonable judgment against the entity making such a certification with respect to any such Licensed Patents and/or Joint Patents. Any suit may be in the name of either or both Parties, as may be required by Law. For this purpose, Predix shall execute such legal papers necessary for the prosecution of such suit as may be reasonably requested by Amgen. ARTICLE 10 NONDISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 10.1 Nondisclosure. 10.1.1 Nondisclosure. Each Party agrees that, for so long as this Agreement is in effect and for a period of [****] thereafter, a Party (the "Receiving Party") receiving Confidential Information of the other Party (the "Disclosing Party") shall (i) maintain in confidence such Confidential Information using not less than the efforts such Receiving Party uses to maintain in confidence its own proprietary information of similar kind and value, (ii) not disclose such Confidential Information to any Third Party without the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, except for disclosures expressly permitted in Sections 10.2 and 10.5 below, and (iii) not use such Confidential Information for any purpose except those permitted by this Agreement (it being understood that this clause (iii) shall not create or imply any rights or licenses not expressly granted under Article 2 hereof). 10.1.2 Exceptions. The obligations in Section 10.1.1 shall not apply with respect to any portion of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party can show by competent proof: (a) is publicly disclosed by the Disclosing Party, either before or after it is disclosed to the Receiving Party hereunder; or (b) was known to the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates, without any obligation to keep it confidential or any restriction on its use, prior to disclosure by the Disclosing Party; or -35- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. (c) is subsequently disclosed to the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates by a Third Party lawfully in possession thereof and without any obligation to keep it confidential or any restriction on its use; or (d) is published by a Third Party or otherwise becomes publicly available or enters the public domain, either before or after it is disclosed to the Receiving Party; or (e) is independently discovered or developed by the Receiving Party without reference to or the use of Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, as evidenced by the Receiving Party's written records. 10.2 Authorized Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information received from the Disclosing Party to the extent (and only to the extent) such disclosure is reasonably necessary in the following instances: (a) filing or prosecuting (including defending before patent agencies) patents as contemplated under this Agreement; (b) disclosure to regulatory authorities in connection with regulatory filings contemplated under this Agreement; (c) prosecuting or defending litigation as contemplated under this Agreement; (d) subject to Section 10.4, complying with applicable governmental Laws (including the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any national securities exchange) and with judicial process, if in the reasonable opinion of the Receiving Party's counsel, such disclosure is necessary for such compliance; and (e) disclosure, solely on a "need to know basis", to Affiliates, potential and future collaborators (including sublicensees), permitted acquirers or assignees under Section 14.4, research collaborators, subcontractors, each of whom prior to disclosure must be bound by written obligations of confidentiality and non-use no less restrictive than the obligations set forth in this Article 10; provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall remain responsible for any failure by any Person who receives Confidential Information pursuant to this Section 10.2(e) to treat such Confidential Information as required under this Article 10. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Predix shall not disclose to potential or future collaborators, potential permitted acquirers or potential assignees any Licensed Know-How or Confidential Information related to the Program Compounds, Program Products or the activities conducted pursuant hereto (including Amgen Confidential Information), other than financial information; provided however, that in the event of a reversion to Predix of rights to Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products under Article 12, Predix will be permitted to disclose Confidential Information relating to Licensed Compounds and Licensed Products in the exercise of such rights. If and whenever any Confidential Information is disclosed in accordance with this Section 10.2, such disclosure shall not cause any such information to cease to be Confidential Information except to the extent that such disclosure results in a public disclosure of such -36- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. information (otherwise than by breach of this Agreement). Where reasonably possible and subject to Section 10.4 and other than pursuant to Section 10.2(e), the Receiving Party shall notify the Disclosing Party of the Receiving Party's intent to make such disclosure pursuant to this Section 10.2 sufficiently prior to making such disclosure so as to allow the Disclosing Party adequate time to take whatever action it may deem appropriate to protect the confidentiality of the information. 10.3 Terms of this Agreement. Neither Party (nor their Affiliates) shall disclose the terms of this Agreement to any Third Party without the consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may disclose the terms of this Agreement without such consent (i) to its legal and accounting representatives, (ii) to government agencies with authority over such Party that request to review this Agreement in connection with a review, audit or investigation of the operations of such Party by such agency (and provided that review of the terms of this Agreement are reasonably pertinent to such review, audit or investigation), (iii) if required by applicable Law or an order of a court or governmental agency of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) to Third Parties in connection with a bona fide proposed acquisition of, or merger with, such Party; provided that, in each of the foregoing cases, the receiving party is subject to confidentiality obligations no less restrictive than those set forth in this Article 10. If a Party reasonably and in good faith believes that a public announcement or other public disclosure of the execution of this Agreement or the terms of this Agreement is required by applicable Law or an order of a court or governmental agency of competent jurisdiction, then, to the extent permissible by law, such Party will provide the other Party with notice of the intended disclosure at least [********] days in advance of such disclosure (or, if the Party is required to make such disclosure in less than such period, as soon as practicable) and will make itself available to consult with the other Party with respect to the nature and scope of such intended disclosure. In addition to the foregoing, In the event either Party proposes to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission or the securities regulators of any state or other jurisdiction a registration statement or any other disclosure document which discloses, describes or refers to the terms and conditions of this Agreement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any other applicable securities Law, the Party shall notify the other Party of such intention and shall provide such other Party with a copy of relevant portions of the proposed filing not less than [********] prior to such filing (and any revisions to such portions of the proposed filing a reasonable time prior to the filing thereof), including any exhibits thereto relating to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and shall use reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment of the terms and conditions of this Agreement that such other Party requests be kept confidential, and shall only disclose Confidential Information which it is advised by counsel is legally required to be disclosed or required to be disclosed. No such notice shall be required under this Section 10.3 if the substance of the disclosure or description of or reference to this Agreement contained in the proposed filing has been included in any previous filing made by either Party hereunder or otherwise approved by the other Party. 10.4 Relationship to Confidentiality Agreement. This Agreement supersedes the Confidential Disclosure Agreement between the Parties executed February 15, 2006, provided that all "Confidential Information" disclosed or received by the Parties thereunder shall be deemed "Confidential Information" hereunder and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. -37- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. 10.5 Publication. Amgen may publish or present data and/or results relating to a Licensed Compound or Licensed Product in scientific journals and/or at scientific conferences. Amgen shall provide Predix with the opportunity to review any proposed abstract, manuscript or presentation which discloses confidential information relating to a Licensed Compound or Licensed Product by delivering a copy thereof to Predix no less than [****] before its intended submission for publication or presentation. Predix shall have [****] from its receipt of any such abstract, manuscript or presentation in which to notify Amgen in writing of its comments. Amgen will consider in good faith any comments provided by Predix, but Amgen will have final decision-making authority with respect to the content of publications and presentations. Amgen will comply with any Predix request to delete references to Predix's Confidential Information in any such publication or presentation (except for information relating to Licensed Compounds or Licensed Products, which Amgen shall have the right to publish or present). Amgen will identify Predix's role in the discovery of compounds or technology described in any such publication, as appropriate in light of customary scientific practices, and will otherwise include appropriate attribution of credit to Predix and its employees for any contribution made to the results included in any such publication. Predix will not publish scientific results or other information of work conducted with respect to the Collaboration, Program Compounds or Program Products, without the prior written consent of Amgen, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (consistent with the standards that Amgen uses for its own publications); provided that Predix shall first provide Amgen with an opportunity to review and comment (in the same manner and to the same extent as is described above for Predix to review and comment on Amgen's publications) on any such proposed publication and further provided that Predix shall not publish any Confidential Information of Amgen nor any other information to the extent it would undermine the commercial potential of any Program Compound or Program Product. ARTICLE 11 INDEMNITY 11.1 Amgen Indemnity. Amgen shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Predix and its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (the "Predix Indemnitees"), from and against any and all claims, threatened claims, damages, losses, suits, proceedings, liabilities, costs (including reasonable legal expenses, costs of litigation and reasonable attorneys fees) or judgments, whether for money or equitable relief, of any kind ("Losses and Claims"), but only to the extent arising out of a claim or demand made by a Third Party, arising out of or relating to (i) the Development or Commercialization of Program Compounds or Program Products by or on behalf of Amgen, its Affiliates or Sublicensees other than the Predix Indemnitees (including claims based on product liability, infringement or misappropriation of Third Party intellectual property, or its co-promotion activities), (ii) breach of this Agreement, including the representations and warranties of Amgen hereunder, by Amgen, or (iii) any failure of Amgen, its Affiliates or Sublicensees to comply with applicable Laws with respect to their performance hereunder; except in any such case for Losses and Claims to the extent arising out of or relating to any breach of this Agreement by Predix or the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of any Predix Indemnitee. -38- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. 11.2 Predix Indemnity. Predix shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Amgen and its Affiliates and Sublicensees, and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (the "Amgen Indemnitees"), from and against any and all Losses and Claims, but only to the extent arising out of a claim or demand made by a Third Party arising out of or relating to (i) the Development or Commercialization of Program Compounds or Program Products by or on behalf of Predix, its Affiliates or sublicensees other than the Amgen Indemnitees (including claims based on product liability, infringement or misappropriation of Third Party intellectual property, or its co-promotion activities), (ii) breach of this Agreement, including the representations and warranties of Predix hereunder, by Predix, or (iii) any failure of Predix, its Affiliates or sublicensees to comply with applicable Laws with respect to their performance hereunder; except in any such case for Losses and Claims to the extent arising out of or relating to any breach of this Agreement by Amgen or the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of any Amgen Indemnitee. 11.3 Indemnification Procedure. A claim to which indemnification applies under Section 11.1 or Section 11.2 shall be referred to herein as an "Indemnification Claim". If any Person or Persons (collectively, the "Indemnitee") intends to claim indemnification under this Article 11, the Indemnitee shall notify the other Party (the "Indemnitor") in writing promptly upon becoming aware of any claim that may be an Indemnification Claim (it being understood and agreed, however, that the failure by an Indemnitee to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnification obligation under this Agreement except and only to the extent that the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice). The Indemnitor shall have the right to assume and control the defense of the Indemnification Claim at its own expense with counsel selected by the Indemnitor; provided that, the Indemnitee shall have the right to have counsel selected by it participate, at the Indemnitee's expense, in any action for which the Indemnitee seeks to be indemnified by the Indemnitor. If the Indemnitor does not assume the defense of the Indemnification Claim as aforesaid, the Indemnitee may defend the Indemnification Claim but shall have no obligation to do so. The Indemnitee shall not settle or compromise the Indemnification Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor, and the Indemnitor shall not settle or compromise the Indemnification Claim in any manner which would have an adverse effect on the Indemnitee's interests (including any rights under this Agreement or the scope or enforceability of the Indemnitee's Patents Rights or Confidential Information), without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor at the Indemnitor's expense and shall make available to the Indemnitor all reasonably requested information under the control of the Indemnitee, which information shall be subject to Article 10. 11.4 Insurance. Each Party shall at its own expense procure and maintain during the term of the Agreement and for five (5) years thereafter insurance policy/policies, including product liability insurance, adequate to cover its obligations hereunder and which are consistent with normal business practices of prudent companies similarly situated. Each Party may self-insure all or part of its obligations hereunder consistent with pharmaceutical industry practices. Any insurance shall not be construed to create a limit of the insuring Party's liability with respect to its indemnification obligations under this Article 11. Each Party's insurance hereunder shall be primary with respect to the obligations for which such Party is liable hereunder and non- -39- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. contributing with respect to the obligations for which such Party is to be indemnified by the other Party.

APPENDIX E FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACTS: Andrea L. Johnston, Pure Communications ###-###-#### Sheryl Seapy, Pure Communications ###-###-#### PREDIX PHARMACEUTICALS ANNOUNCES COLLABORATION FOR DEVELOPMENT OF S1P1 MODULATORS FOR THE TREATMENT OF AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES Total Payments to Predix Could Exceed $300 Million; Predix Has Option to Co-promote In a Selected Indication LEXINGTON, Mass., July 31, 2006 -- Predix Pharmaceuticals, which recently announced a definitive agreement to merge with EPIX Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: EPIX), announced today that it has entered into an exclusive collaboration and licensing agreement with Amgen for the development of novel, orally available S1P1 modulators for the treatment of multiple autoimmune diseases. Under the terms of the agreement, Predix and Amgen will collaborate on the development of existing Predix preclinical compounds and new S1P1 modulators. Amgen will be responsible for clinical development and commercialization of the product candidate(s). Predix will receive an upfront payment of $20 million. Additionally, if certain clinical, regulatory and sales milestones are achieved, Predix can earn up to an additional $287.5 million in milestone payments. Under the agreement, Predix will have the opportunity to receive potential double-digit royalties on future sales of products resulting from this collaboration and will have the option to promote a product resulting from this collaboration to specialty physicians in the U.S. for a selected indication. "Amgen is recognized as an industry leader in the research, development and commercialization of therapies for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases," stated Chen Schor, chief business officer of Predix. "We are very pleased to enter into this collaboration and look forward to working with Amgen. This collaboration provides Predix with the option to transform into a fully integrated pharmaceutical company by exercising our co-promote option with Amgen. This deal comes as we are in the process of finalizing our merger with EPIX and will further enable the combined company to pursue this research program along with our other development programs." Sharon Shacham, Ph.D., vice president of preclinical development at Predix added, "The goal of this collaboration is to leverage both Amgen's and Predix's expertise in autoimmune research. We believe that combining Predix's S1P1 program with Amgen's assets and capabilities will lead to new therapies that will more effectively treat a variety of autoimmune disorders." -61- PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND HAVE BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO THE COMPANY'S APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT UNDER RULE 24b-2 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT; [*] DENOTES OMISSIONS. ABOUT S1P1 MODULATORS Predix's preclinical-stage S1P1 agonists are potent and selective for S1P1 over other S1P receptors and many other GPCRs, potentially providing an improved side effect profile in the clinic compared to currently available immunosuppressive drugs. S1P1 is one of at least five different GPCRs that are activated by the phospholipid Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P). These GPCRs play a role in multiple biological processes, including immune system activation and cardiovascular function. Compounds which activate the S1P1 receptor, called S1P1 agonists, have been shown to induce peripheral lymphopenia, which is a reduction in circulating lymphocytes in the blood. Instead of inactivating lymphocytes and hampering the immune response entirely like conventional immunosuppressive drugs, S1P1 agonists appear to work by temporarily maintaining lymphocytes in the lymphatic system (e.g., lymph nodes). This mechanism of action has been suggested to be beneficial in a variety of autoimmune disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and rejection of transplanted organs. ABOUT AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES Autoimmune diseases afflict millions of Americans. There are many different autoimmune diseases. Some examples are multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, and rheumatoid arthritis. Autoimmune diseases can each affect the body in different ways. For instance, the autoimmune reaction is directed against the brain in multiple sclerosis and the intestines or gastrointestinal tract in Crohn's disease. In other diseases, such as lupus, affected tissues and organs may vary among individuals with the same disease. ABOUT PREDIX PHARMACEUTICALS HOLDINGS, INC. Predix, based in Lexington, MA, is a pharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of novel, highly selective, small-molecule drugs that target G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) and ion channels. Using its proprietary drug discovery technology and approach, Predix has advanced four internally-discovered drug candidates into clinical trials and has five additional programs in preclinical development and discovery. Predix is expected to complete the first of at least two pivotal Phase III clinical trials for generalized anxiety disorder for its lead drug candidate, PRX-00023, in the second half of 2006. In addition to PRX-00023, Predix has three other clinical-stage drug candidates: PRX-03140 for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, which is expected to enter Phase IIa later this year; PRX-08066 for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PH) and PH associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which recently entered a Phase II trial; and, PRX-07034, which recently entered a Phase I trial and is expected to be developed for the treatment of obesity and also cognitive impairment associated with Alzheimer's disease or schizophrenia.
