THIS DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of February 26, 2004 (the “Effective Date”), between ACCESS BUSINESS GROUP INTERNATIONAL LLC (“Access”), a Michigan limited liability company with its principal place of business at 7575 East Fulton Road, Ada, Michigan 49355, United States; and INTERLEUKIN GENETICS INC. (“Seller”) a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business at 135 Beaver Street, Waltham, Massachusetts 02452.

WHEREAS, Access and Seller have entered into an Exclusive License Agreement dated as of March 5, 2003 (the “License Agreement”) pursuant to which Seller has licensed certain technology to Access for use within certain fields including, without limitation the Nutrigenomics Field (as defined in the License Agreement);

WHEREAS, the parties wish to enter into this agreement to describe the terms pursuant to which Seller will provide Genetic Tests (as defined below) to Access for resale to third parties; and

WHEREAS, Quixtar Inc. (“Quixtar”), an affiliate of Access, shall sell Genetic Test Kits (as defined below) to its Independent Business Owners (“IBOs”).

The parties agree as follows:

1.                                       Purchase.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, during the Term (as defined below), Access shall purchase from Seller, and Seller shall provide to Access, *** Genetic Tests.  Such purchases shall be made at any time during the period commencing on the Effective Date and continuing until the first anniversary of the date on which Seller first obtains the Required Certifications (the “Term”).  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, such purchases shall be made via purchase orders under Access’ standard terms and conditions of purchase, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.  If there is any conflict between such terms and conditions and of this Agreement, then the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.  As used in this Agreement, (a) a “Genetic Test” means a genomic test used to determine appropriate recipients of a Nutrigenomics Consumable (as such term is defined in the License Agreement) which shall include a report prepared by Seller in accordance with CLIA requirements (a “Report”) a sample copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B and (b) a “Genetic Test Kit” means the product to be provided by Quixtar to IBOs that is used for the collection of genetic materials from end-users.  During the Term of this Agreement, Access will provide Seller with a rolling non-binding forecast of projected purchases of Genetic Tests for each ensuing 12-month period, which forecast shall be updated each month during the Term of this Agreement. In connection therewith (a) Access shall use reasonable efforts to distribute its purchase of Genetic Tests from Seller as evenly as possible over the Term and (b) Seller shall not be obligated to provide more Genetic Tests in any single calendar month than it can reasonably perform, provided, however, that Seller agrees that it has the capacity to provide  *** Genetic Tests per month.

2.                                       Conditions to Purchase.  The obligations of Access under Section 1 shall be subject to the receipt by Access of evidence to its reasonable satisfaction that (a) the Genetic Tests will be performed in a clinical laboratory that has obtained all certifications required (the “Required Certifications”) under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act of 1988, as amended

(“CLIA”), (b)

Seller, such laboratory, and the Genetic Tests to be provided by Seller in such laboratory are each in full compliance with all applicable industry standards and applicable laws, regulations, and standards and (c) the distribution of Genetic Tests by Access or its affiliates shall not, in Access’ reasonable determination, subject Access to a material risk with respect to product liability.  Access agrees and acknowledges that, at certain volumes, Seller may subcontract the Genetic Tests to other laboratories (“Reference Labs”), provided that any such Reference Lab meet the Required Certifications under CLIA, and Seller provides such documentation to Access at least thirty (30) days prior to the effectiveness of any subcontract.

IL-1 TEST REPORT

NAME:

REPORT DATE:

This is a research test for informational and internal purposes only. It is not intended to diagnose, treat or prevent a specific disease or assess a specific health condition.  It is intended to provide personalized information to individuals who are interested in further knowledge to improve or maintain health and wellness.

RESULTS:

Your IL-1 gene variation test result is:

Pattern  1

Your individual composite genotype is:

This pattern has been associated in clinical studies with a higher level of chronic inflammatory response and, in some cases, with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease.  The interpretation of your IL-1 DNA test is based on three large clinical studies which found that individuals with pattern 1 had a 3 to 5 fold increased risk of heart attack or death from cardiovascular disease than individuals who did not have pattern 1.   This level of increased risk is in the range of the risk associated with many of the other, “conventional” cardiovascular risk factors.  By knowing your individual genotype, you can now make diet and lifestyle changes to address this previously unknown risk factor.  We encourage you, with the help of health and nutrition professionals, to use this information to develop your own personalized strategy for minimizing risk to cardiovascular disease.

The prevalence of pattern 1 is approximately 37% in populations of European descent. This frequency may differ in other ethnic groups.

BACKGROUND  INFORMATION:

In recent years, medical researchers have firmly established the existence of several factors that, when present in an individual, place that person at increased likelihood or “risk” of developing cardiovascular disease.  These factors are often referred to by doctors as “conventional cardiovascular risk factors”.   The most prominent among them are high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol levels and physical inactivity.

Interleukin Genetics Inc • 135 Beaver Street • Third Floor • Waltham • MA • 01890 • Tel: 781 ###-###-#### • Fax: 781 ###-###-####

Despite all the progress made through the study of conventional cardiovascular risk factors, it has long been clear that their presence does not account for all of the causes of cardiovascular disease.  Recent scientific discoveries indicate that some of the previously unexplained causes of cardiovascular disease may be due to specific variations in DNA that each of us have inherited through our families.   Just as is the case for the conventional cardiovascular risk factors, the mere presence of one or more of these DNA variations does not mean that an individual will definitely develop cardiovascular disease. However, being aware that these factors are present can be helpful in taking steps to reduce risk.

Thus, we have analyzed your DNA to identify this additional risk factor. Specifically, we have identified individual variations in the Interleukin gene that influences the level of inflammation in your body.
