shall include the services set forth in the Services Agreement dated June 25, 2007 between LICENSEE and FORENAP, a copy of which is attached as Schedule 4.1.1 (hereinafter referred to as “Services Agreement”). Further, LICENSEE may subcontract portions of the Development Work to any other Third Party having enough knowledge, experience and capability for pre-clinical and/or Clinical Studies; provided, however, that such subcontracted Third Party shall be subject to an agreement with LICENSEE consistent with the confidentiality obligations in accordance with Article 8 below. LICENSEE shall be responsible for the Development Work to be performed by FORENAP and any other subcontracted Third Party.

4.1.2 Development Plan. For each Compound and Product, LICENSEE shall prepare a Development Plan that describes the significant development activities to be undertaken by LICENSEE, its Affiliates and/or its sublicensees with respect to the Compound and Product in the Field in the LICENSEE Territory. As part of the Services Agreement, LICENSEE, and/or its Affiliates shall prepare the initial Development Plan for the MT-210 Compound in consultation with FORENAP. The initial Development Plan for the MT-210 Compound shall take into consideration the following strategies for development;

(a) Characterize the clinical trial subjects for their hepatic metabolic status, particularly by looking to CYP2D6 polymorphism (genotyping and if necessary phenotyping) and probably excluding CYP2D6 poor metabolisers from the initial Phase II(a) Study;

(b) Exclude from the clinical trials subjects who are at risk for cardiovascular side effects;

(c) Explore low doses of MT-210 Compound that have been considered clinically safe as far as QTc prolongation is considered;

A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to portions of the following document that are marked with [*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(d) Titrate the doses of MT-210 up in a very conservative titration regimen to find the maximum safe dose with respect to QTc prolongation;

(e) For the initial Phase II(a) Study, clinical study subjects shall be inpatients during the first two weeks, or longer, if no clinical efficacy is objectively demonstrated;

(f) Frequently perform ECG recordings, including at Tmax, and before each dose increase;

(g) Regularly monitor plasma levels of Compound and active metabolites in a manner similar to the monitoring conducted by MPC in the Phase I Studies with MT-210 Compound; and

(h) Use only clinical sites that are experienced in conducting clinical studies with antipsychotic compounds.

The Development Plan may be modified from time to time as LICENSEE, its Affiliates and/or sublicensees deem necessary, and with respect to the MT-210 Compound, within the scope of the development strategy set forth in this Section 4.1.2; provided, however, LICENSEE, to the extent it is aware of such revisions, shall promptly inform MPC of any material revision of such Development Plan and will use good faith efforts to inform MPC of any other revision of such Development Plan. If the Development Plan for the MT-210 Compound is modified by LICENSEE, and/or its Affiliates beyond the development strategy considerations set forth in Section 4.1.2(a) — (h), LICENSEE shall promptly inform MPC of such revision of such Development Plan and MPC shall provide any comments it may have on such modifications within eight (8) days and LICENSEE shall consider in good faith any such comments.

LICENSEE shall be responsible for preparing and implementing any modifications or amendments to the Development Plan.

4.1.3 Back-Up Compounds & Metabolites. If during the course of the Development Work, LICENSEE or its Affiliate or its sublicensee decides (a) that it desires to develop the Product containing an Alternate Compound at the same time as the Development Work on the Product containing MT-210 Compound or (b) that it no longer desires to continue the Development Work of the Product containing MT-210 Compound based on its reasonable judgment of internal scientific and/or economic evaluation, such as safety, efficacy or commercial viability of the Product containing the MT-210 Compound, and, in substitute of the MT-210 Compound, desires to commence Development Work of the Product containing a Back-Up Compound, a MT-210 Back-Up or Metabolite selected by LICENSEE as a back-up Compound, LICENSEE shall notify MPC of such intention and the Development Plan for the Product containing such back-up Compound. LICENSEE shall be free to commence such simultaneous or alternate Development Work unless MPC notifies LICENSEE within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from LICENSEE that MPC, its Affiliate and/or its licensee is then conducting any research, development and/or commercialization activities for such back-up Compound outside the Field; provided, however, that none of MPC, its Affiliates and/or its licensee shall be permitted to restrict LICENSEE from commencing Development Work on the Excluded Compounds. Upon the Onset of a Phase I Study of the Product containing such back-up Compound, LICENSEE shall notify MPC of such Development Work.

9.5 Patent Term Restoration. The Parties, their Affiliates or their sublicensees shall cooperate with each other, execute all documents and take all actions that may be necessary to pursue patent term extensions, supplemental protection certificates or their future equivalents applicable to the LICENSEE Patents or the MPC Patents, under appropriate laws and/or regulations in the LICENSEE Territory and/or MPC Territory.

Except as expressly set forth herein, the rights to terminate as set forth herein shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available under this Agreement, at law, or in equity, or otherwise.

10.5 Effect of Termination Without MPC’s Cause. In the event that this Agreement shall be terminated by MPC pursuant to Section 4.1.5, 10.2 or by LICENSEE pursuant to Section 10.3, LICENSEE or its Affiliate shall return to MPC all written MPC Know-How and all copies thereof and furnish MPC with all of LICENSEE, its Affiliates or its sublicensee Know-How not already provided to MPC with a royalty-free worldwide right to use all LICENSEE Patents and LICENSEE Know-How.
