COVENANTS

1. Consideration.

(a) Employee hereby represents and warrants that she has executed and delivered to the Company her resignation as a member of the Board of Directors effective the date of the Company’s Board of Director’s approval of this Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement are expressly contingent upon the execution and delivery of Employee’s resignation from the Board of Directors. Employee’s employment with Company will terminate on or about February 15, 2004 (the “Termination Date”), at which time the Company will pay Employee all outstanding salary, wages, accrued vacation, and submitted reimbursable expenses. Upon reasonable written request, the Company’s CEO will make himself or herself reasonably available on a not more than once a month basis during normal business hours to answer Employee’s questions concerning the Company’s business until the earlier of (i) the date the Employee ceases to be a shareholder of the Company; (ii) that date the Company effectuates an IPO, or (iii) the sale or merger of the Company, wherein the Company’s then current shareholders do not maintain a 50% interest or more in the surviving entity or that involves the sale or license of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. Employee shall be able to keep her current telephone number and email address at the Company for six (6) months after the Effective Date of this Agreement. The Company also agrees to use reasonable efforts to permanently and prominently list Employee on its website as the sole founder of the Company. On an ongoing basis, the Company will also use reasonable efforts to reference the Employee as the sole original founder of the Company in all other mediums, as appropriate.

(b) Severance. Within 10 days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay Employee a lump sum payment equivalent to six (6) months of the Employee’s base

-2-

salary in effect as of the Termination Date, less applicable withholding (the “Lump Sum”). As additional consideration for the execution of this Agreement and in consideration of the services to be provided as set forth in section 1(c) below, the Company agrees to pay Employee $133,900.00 without any withholding in equal monthly payments over a twelve month period following February 15, 2004 consistent with the Company’s regular payroll practices. These payments will be due and owing regardless of whether the Company requests utilization of Employee’s services. The first payment will be made on the first regular payroll date following the Effective Date of this Agreement and will continue, thereafter, in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, for the twelve (12) month period (the “Payment Period”). During the Payment Period, Employee will not be entitled to accrual of any employee benefits, including, but not limited to, vesting in stock options or vacation benefits. Employee and the Company agree that a 1099 shall issue with respect to all payments made during the Payment Period under this section, other than for the Lump Sum payment specified above. As further severance, the Company will continue providing medical insurance for Employee and her family through February 15, 2005. To the extent that the Company cannot maintain Employee on the Company’s medical insurance plan, and the Employee elects to continue her health insurance under COBRA, the Company will reimburse Employee for payments made by Employee pursuant to COBRA in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 1(f) below.

(c) Consulting Relationship. Employee agrees to remain with the Company as a consultant from the Termination Date through February 15, 2005 (the “Consulting Period”). It is the express intention of the Company that Employee performs services during the Consulting Period as an independent contractor to the Company. Nothing in this Agreement shall in any way be construed to constitute Employee as an agent, employee or representative of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Employee is not authorized to bind the Company to any liability or obligation or to represent that Employee has any such authority. Employee acknowledges and agrees that Employee is obligated to report as income all compensation received by Employee pursuant to this Agreement. Employee agrees to and acknowledges the obligation to pay all self-employment and other taxes on such income. During the Consulting Period, upon the request of the Company’s then current CEO, Employee shall be required to provide up to two days of service per month to the Company, without carryovers. Should the Company’s then current CEO reasonably request that Employee provide additional days of service beyond the two days in any given calendar month, Employee will be compensated at the rate of two thousand dollars ($2,000) per day for each day beyond the two days specified herein. During the Consulting Period, the Company shall reimburse Employee for travel related expenses incurred and submitted during the Consulting Period, provided however that the total amount reimbursed during the Consulting Period shall not exceed six thousand dollars ($6,000.00), unless the Company consents in writing otherwise. Employee shall be permitted to accept other employment or consulting relationships during the Consulting Period. However, Employee agrees that, during the Consulting Period, she will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, (i) serve as a partner, employee, consultant, officer, director, manager, agent, associate, investor, or (ii) directly or indirectly, own, purchase, or organize, or (iii) build, design, finance, acquire, lease, operate, manage, invest in, work or consult for or otherwise affiliate himself/herself with any business, in competition with the Company’s business in the peripheral neuropathic pain/capsaicin space, which shall be more specifically defined as

-3-

involving any work concerning the TRPV1 (formerly known as the VR1) receptor, capsaicin, capsaincinoids, or other molecules active at this TRPV1 receptor on peripheral nerves. Subject to the Company’s removal of any Company property and proprietary information contained in such devices, Employee shall be allowed to keep the Company’s laptop computer and blackberry device currently used by her upon termination of the Consulting Period.

(d) Stock. The Parties agree that for purposes of determining the number of shares of the Company’s common stock which have been released from the Company’s Repurchase Option under the Stock Agreements (the “Released Shares”) as of the Effective Date the Employee shall be considered to have vested in, and the Company’s Repurchase Option shall be considered to have been terminated as to, 100% of the total shares subject to the Stock Agreements and purchased by the Employee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all shares, including those no longer subject to the Repurchase Option, shall continue to be subject to all other terms of the Stock Agreements, as applicable.

(e) Bonus Payment. Within 10 days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay to the Employee a lump sum payment in the total amount of forty thousand dollars ($40,000.00.)

(f) Benefits. Employee’s health insurance benefits will cease at the end of February 2004, subject to Employee’s right to continue her health insurance under COBRA. Should Employee elect COBRA, the Company shall reimburse Employee for up to 12 months of health care coverage under COBRA, upon submission to the Company. Reimbursement shall be grossed up if necessary to ensure that Employee is fully reimbursed for any COBRA premium and any tax incurred on the part of Employee in connection with the reimbursement payment. Employee’s participation in all other benefits and incidents of employment ceased on the Termination Date. Employee ceased accruing employee benefits, including, but not limited to, vacation time and paid time off, as of the Termination Date.

(g) C101 Article. The Company and Employee hereby agree that with respect to authorship of the C101 article submitted by the Company to the journal “Pain,” that Alan Basbaum (the “Reviewer”) shall review the C101 article and the contributions to such article made by the various authors of such contributions and determine whether the Employee should be considered the senior author of such article. The Company and Employee hereby agree to be bound by the decisions of the Reviewer. If Mr. Basbaum notifies the Company and the Employee that he cannot serve as the Reviewer, then the Company and the Employee shall choose a person to fill the role of the Reviewer that is mutually acceptable to the Company and the Employee.

2. Repayment of Promissory Notes. Within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Employee agrees to fully repay all principal and interest on the Promissory Notes executed by Employee in favor of the Company.

3. Stock Ownership. Employee hereby represents and warrants that: (i) all stock owned by Employee and the Trusts is as set forth on Exhibit A; (ii) Employee has no right to receive any capital stock of the Company in addition to the stock set forth on Exhibit A, other than through the
