FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE

DATA TRANSFER, CLINICAL TRIAL AND MARKET SUPPLY AGREEMENT

        THIS FIRST AMENDMENT to the Data Transfer, Clinical Trial and Market Supply Agreement (the "First Amendment"), is made effective as of the 19h day of June, 2002 (the "Amendment Date") by and between InterMune, Inc. ("InterMune"), a Delaware corporation, having an address at 3280 Bayshore Boulevard, Brisbane, California 94005, USA, and Boehringer Ingelheim Austria GmbH ("BI Austria"), an Austrian corporation, having its registered office at Dr. Boehringer-Gasse 5 - 11, A-1121 Vienna, Republic of Austria. InterMune and BI Austria may be referred to herein each individually as a "Party" and jointly as the "Parties."

        WHEREAS, InterMune and BI Austria are parties to the Data Transfer, Clinical Trial and Market Supply Agreement dated the 27th of January, 2000 (the "Agreement"); and

        WHEREAS, relative to the Agreement as originally executed, InterMune and BI Austria have agreed to increased volume and capacity commitments on the part of each Party, and modified pricing and other terms, all as further set forth herein, and wish to amend the Agreement to reflect such terms;

        WHEREAS, InterMune and BI Austria have commenced some additional work and desire to contract for additional services not originally contemplated by the Agreement. These additional services consist of certain process optimization and development work with the objective to establish a robust, high-yield, and large scale process for production of Actimmune drug substance suitable to meet the increased market demand of product.

        NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1.
The Austrian Shilling is defined in the Agreement as "ATS" in Section 1.3 of the Agreement. The Parties recognize that the Austrian Shilling has been replaced by the Euro. Section 4.1 of the Agreement says that payments under the Agreement become due in an equivalent amount of Euros instead of Austrian Shillings once the Euro replaces the Austrian Shilling. The Parties agree that this has happened, and that payments under the Agreement shall be in Euros from now on. The new pricing terms being added to the Agreement by this First Amendment are stated in Euros. The Agreement is hereby amended to add as Section 1.18(b) the following definition:

        "EURO means a euro, which is the European unit of currency."

2.
The Agreement is hereby amended to insert as Section 1.38(b) of the Agreement, immediately following Section 1.38 of the Agreement, the following definition:

        [*]

3.
The Agreement is hereby amended to insert a new Section 2.1.7 after Section 2.1.6, as follows:

    "InterMune grants BI Austria a right of first negotiation for the manufacture for clinical and commercial supply of any [*] as follows: If InterMune pursues the development of any [*] then prior to [*], InterMune shall notify BI Austria in writing. If BI Austria responds in writing within [*] after any such notice from InterMune that BI Austria wishes to negotiate with InterMune the terms upon which BI Austria would be willing to manufacture and supply exclusively to InterMune, and InterMune would be willing to purchase from BI Austria, quantities of such product as clinical and commercial supply, then the Parties shall negotiate in good faith such terms for a period of not less than [*] If the Parties do not reach agreement and execute a written agreement setting

1


    forth such terms during such time period, then InterMune shall have no further obligation to BI Austria with respect to the manufacture and supply [*]."

4.
The Agreement is hereby amended to delete in its entirety the second (2nd) paragraph of Section 3.2.1 and replace such paragraph with the following:

    "Following BI Austria's and BI Pharma KG's FDA approval to manufacture PRODUCT for market supply, InterMune shall order the requested amounts of PRODUCT. In any case the [*]

5.
The Agreement is hereby amended to insert a new Section 3.2.6 after Section 3.2.5, as follows:

    "3.2.6    If InterMune determines that [*] vials of PRODUCT per year exceeds InterMune's annual requirements for PRODUCT, then InterMune may so notify BI Austria, stating the number of vials of PRODUCT that InterMune predicts it will actually require going forward from the date of InterMune's notice (the "Revised Level"). If InterMune provides BI Austria with such a notice, then:

            3.2.6.1    InterMune shall purchase (in due course on the timeline otherwise provided for hereunder) the quantities for delivery in the [*] quarters of the then-current forecast pursuant to Section 3.2.1 then in effect. In such event, the [*] quarters of such forecast shall also become binding so that all costs for PRODUCT ordered for delivery in the [*] quarters fall due and have to be paid by InterMune; (for the avoidance of doubt, the amounts forecast for such [*] shall [*] as the [*] in accordance with Section 3.2.3); also for the avoidance of doubt, InterMune shall also purchase from BI Austria any quantities of PRODUCT delivered in accordance with any purchase order hereunder in effect at the time of InterMune's notice.

            3.2.6.2    And, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith (a) any adjustments to the financial terms of this Agreement that may be required to reflect [*] associated with [*] rather than on the scale of [*] vials per year, and (b) a [*] on the part of BI Austria pursuant to Section [*] Such [*] at the [*] may include a [*] to [*] to manufacture PRODUCT at the scale of [*] vials per year, which [*] cannot be [*] if not [*] PRODUCT for InterMune at the Revised Level. Such [*] shall be subject to audit by an independent accountant [*] to BI Austria concurrently with the negotiations."

6.
The Agreement is hereby amended to delete Section 3.3.4 is in its entirety and replace it with the following:

    "InterMune shall be obligated to buy and BI Austria shall be obligated to sell only the quantities of PRODUCT which are subject to a purchase order accepted by BI Austria; provided that BI Austria shall accept sufficient purchase orders from InterMune annually to meet its obligations pursuant to Section 3.6.2 and in accordance with the rolling forecast model pursuant to Section 3.2.1. Any purchase order (or portion thereof) for which InterMune has not received a written rejection from BI Austria within [*] of BI Austria's receipt of such purchase order shall be deemed accepted by BI Austria."

7.
The Agreement is hereby amended to delete Section 3.6.2 in its entirety and replace it with the following:

    "BI Austria guarantees to have reserved the capacity to manufacture, and to have manufactured at BI Pharma KG (i) a minimum of [*] vials per year through calendar year [*] ; (ii) a minimum of [*] vials per year [*]; and (iii) a minimum of [*] vials in each calendar year thereafter during the term of this Agreement. Such vials may be packaged and labeled for market supply, or unpackaged and/or unlabeled for clinical supply, as requested by InterMune in its purchase orders therefore. InterMune presumes that the amount of vials requested per year might exceed such minimum number of vials in the years in which such minimums apply as set forth above. Should it become at any time apparent that InterMune requires a greater quantity of PRODUCT than the minimum required of BI Austria as set forth above for any particular year, InterMune will notify BI Austria thereof. BI Austria shall inform as soon as reasonably possible InterMune [*] vials for the

2


    applicable calendar year. The Parties acknowledge that a lead time of up to [*] years may be required [*] to manufacture [*] . Upon agreement on the costs and lead time BI Austria shall reserve the capacity needed for the increased demand of PRODUCT.

    Should it become at any time apparent that it would not be feasible for BI Austria to provide manufacturing capacity at BI Austria for [*] (i) equivalent to [*] vials, during any calendar year [*]; (ii) equivalent to [*] vials per year, [*]; or (iii) equivalent to at least [*] vials per year, during any calendar year after [*], BI Austria will notify InterMune thereof."

8.
The Agreement is hereby amended to insert a new Section 2.2.8. after Section 2.2.7, as follows:

    "Development and Scale-up of the MANUFACTURING PROCESS. The Parties decided to conduct a development program to develop a robust, high-yield, and large scale process for production of BBS (1.11) suitable to meet the increased market demand of PRODUCT. The Parties decided to conduct such a program as additional services under this Agreement, but the [*] in this Agreement as originally executed. As of the Amendment Date (as defined in the First Amendment to this Agreement), the Parties have commenced and have plans to continue certain additional services, and have agreed upon the financial terms and work plans for such additional services. All such additional services that have been agreed upon by the Parties as of the Amendment Date are listed in Appendix D to this First Amendment and shall be carried out by the Parties in accordance with the work plan referenced in Exhibit D. All costs arising out of such additional services shall be paid in accordance with the respective payment schedule as also listed in Appendix D to this First Amendment. If the Parties plan and agree upon new process development projects pursuant to this Agreement beyond that which is agreed upon on the Amendment Date, they will exchange written plans for such work and the financial terms, if any, therefor, prior to commencing the work."

9.
The Agreement is hereby amended to delete the number "2006" in Section 13.1 and replace it with the number [*]
10.
The Agreement is hereby amended to delete in its entirety Section 14.4 and replace it with the following:
