shall cooperate in the filing of any Tax returns or other Tax-related forms or
reports, to the extent any such filing requires providing each other with
necessary relevant records and documents relating to the Purchased Assets.
Seller and Buyer shall cooperate in the same manner in defending or resolving

financial officer of the Buyer.

requirements of all federal, state, and local laws, rules, regulations,

ARTICLE 10

Indemnification and Survival.

10.1 Indemnification by Seller.

(a) Seller's Indemnity. To the extent set forth in this Section 10.1,
Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates at all
times against and in respect of all losses, liabilities, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) (collectively,
"Losses") which Buyer or its Affiliates may suffer or incur to the extent
arising out of or based upon (i) any breach of any of the representations and
warranties of Seller set forth in this Agreement, (ii) any breach of any of the
covenants and agreements of Seller set forth in this Agreement, (iii) the
production, development, trial, research, marketing use, or distribution of the
Products prior to the Closing Date, or (iv) any Excluded Liability.

(b) Limitations on Seller's Indemnity.

(i) Seller shall not be liable for any Loss described in Section
10.1(a)(i) until the aggregate of all such Losses for which Seller is
liable are in excess of $250,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Seller shall not indemnify or hold Buyer or its Affiliates harmless
against any such individual Loss unless such Loss exceeds Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($50,000) and no such individual Loss of less than
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (exclusive of attorneys' fees) shall
be considered in determining whether the aggregate Losses exceed the
deductible set forth in the preceding sentence.

(ii) Seller's aggregate liability for the Losses described in
Section 10.1(a)(i) shall not exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000);
provided, however, that upon Buyer's satisfaction of all of its
Obligations (as defined in the Promissory Note) under the Promissory

($20,000,000).

to Buyer or Buyer's Affiliates for any consequential, incidental or
punitive damages, and Losses indemnifiable hereunder shall not include
such damages.

(c) Notice of Claims. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller in writing of
all matters which may give rise to the right to indemnification hereunder, it
being understood that if Seller does not receive notice of any matter known to
Buyer and as to which Buyer or its Affiliates are entitled to indemnification
hereunder in time to contest the determination of any such liability which is
susceptible to being successfully contested, Seller shall not be obligated to
indemnify Buyer or its Affiliates with respect thereto. Buyer shall not admit
any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any such
matter covered by this Section 10.1 without Seller's prior written consent
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Seller shall have the
right, with the consent of Buyer (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), to settle all indemnifiable matters related to claims by third parties
which are susceptible to being settled, and to defend (without the consent of
Buyer) through counsel of its own choosing, at its own expense, any action which
may be brought by a third party in connection therewith; provided, however, that
Buyer shall have the right to have its counsel participate fully in such defense
at its own expense. Buyer and Seller shall keep each other informed of all
settlement negotiations with third parties and of the progress of any litigation
with third parties. Buyer and Seller shall permit each other reasonable access
to books and records and otherwise cooperate with all reasonable requests of
each other in connection with any indemnifiable matter resulting from a claim by
a third party.

10.2 Indemnification by Buyer.

(a) Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and Seller's
Affiliates at all times against and in respect of Losses which Seller or its
Affiliates may suffer or incur to the extent arising out of or based upon: (i)

of Buyer set forth in this Agreement or any of the Other Agreements; (ii) any
Assumed Liability; or (iii) the manufacture, sale or use of Products or
Purchased Assets after the Closing Date.

(b) Limitations on Buyer's Indemnity.

(i) Buyer shall not be liable for any Loss described in Section
10.2(a)(i) until the aggregate of all such Losses for which Buyer is
liable are in excess of $250,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer
shall not indemnify or hold Seller or its Affiliates harmless against
any such individual Loss unless such Loss exceeds Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($50,000) and no such individual Loss of less than Fifty
Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (exclusive of

attorneys' fees) shall be considered in determining whether the
aggregate Losses exceed the deductible set forth in the preceding
sentence.

(ii) Buyer's aggregate liability for the Losses described in
Section 10.1(a)(i) shall not exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000);
provided, however, that upon Buyer's satisfaction of all of its
Obligations (as defined in the Promissory Note) under the Promissory
Note, Buyer's liability for the Losses described in Section 10.2(a)(i)
shall not exceed an aggregate of Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000)

(iii) Neither Buyer nor Buyer's Affiliates shall have liability
to Seller or Seller's Affiliates for any consequential, incidental or
punitive damages, and Losses indemnifiable hereunder shall not include
such damages.

(c) Notice of Claims. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing of
all matters which may give rise to the right to indemnification hereunder, it
being understood that if Buyer does not receive notice of any matter known to
Seller and as to which Seller or its Affiliates are entitled to indemnification
hereunder in time to contest the determination of any such liability which is
susceptible to being successfully contested, Buyer shall not be obligated to
indemnify Seller or its Affiliates with respect thereto. Seller shall not admit
any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge any such
matter covered by this Section 10.2 without Buyer's prior written consent (which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Buyer shall have the right, with
the consent of Seller (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to
settle all indemnifiable matters related to claims by third parties which are
susceptible to being settled, and to defend (without the consent of Seller)
through counsel of its own choosing, at its own expense, any action which may be
brought by a third party in connection therewith; provided, however, that Seller
shall have the right to have its counsel participate fully in such defense at
its own expense. Buyer and Seller shall keep each other informed of all
settlement negotiations with third parties and of the progress of any litigation
with third parties. Buyer and Seller shall permit each other reasonable access
to books and records and otherwise cooperate with all reasonable requests of
each other in connection with any indemnifiable matter resulting from a claim by
a third party.

10.3 Survival. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, the
representations and warranties of the parties contained herein shall survive the
Closing for a period of two (2) years at which time they shall expire; provided,
however, that claims previously made in writing with respect to breaches of such
representations and warranties shall be indemnifiable in accordance with this
Article 10. No claim may be made based upon an alleged breach of any of such
representations or warranties whether for indemnification in respect thereof or
otherwise, unless written notice of such claim, in reasonable detail, is given
to Buyer or to Seller, as the case may be, within said two year period following
the Closing. The indemnification obligations of Seller for Excluded Liabilities
shall survive the Closing indefinitely.

10.4 Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, the rights and remedies
set forth in this Article 10 shall constitute the sole and exclusive rights and
remedies of Buyer and its Affiliates and Seller and its Affiliates with respect
to this Agreement, the events giving rise to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby.

10.5 Net Losses and Subrogation.

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
amount of any Losses incurred or suffered by a Person entitled to
indemnification hereunder (an "Indemnified Person") shall be calculated after
giving effect to: (i) any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Person
(or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Losses; (ii) any Tax benefit
actually realized by the Indemnified Person (or any of its Affiliates) arising
from the facts or circumstances giving rise to such Losses; and (iii) any
recoveries obtained by the Indemnified Person (or any of its Affiliates) from
any other third party. Each Indemnified Person shall exercise its reasonable
best efforts to obtain such proceeds, benefits and recoveries. If any such
proceeds, benefits or recoveries are received by an Indemnified Person (or any
of its Affiliates) with respect to any Losses after the Indemnified Person (or
any Affiliate) has received the benefit of any indemnification hereunder with
respect thereto, the Indemnified Person (or such Affiliate) shall pay to the
Person providing the indemnification (the "Indemnifying Person") the amount of
such proceeds, benefits or recoveries (up to the amount of the Indemnifying
Person's payment).

(b) Upon making any payment to an Indemnified Person in respect of any
Losses, the Indemnifying Person will, to the extent of such payment, be
subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Person (and its Affiliates) against
any third party in respect of the Losses to which such payment relates. Such
Indemnified Person (and its Affiliates) and Indemnifying Person will execute
upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence or further perfect
such subrogation rights.

10.6 Insurance. Buyer shall obtain and keep in force during the term of its
indemnity obligations to Seller under this Agreement and the Other Agreements
insurance policies from an insurance company with an A.M. Best rating of A++ or
A+ (superior) providing the following minimum levels of coverage: general
comprehensive liability, including product liability, insurance covering each
occurrence of bodily injury and property damage in an amount of not less than
Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) per occurrence and not less than Ten Million
Dollars ($10,000,000) in the aggregate. Buyer shall (a) cause the insurer to
endorse the insurance policy to provide for written notification to Seller by
the insurer not less than thirty (30) days prior to cancellation, expiration or
modification and (b) name Seller as an additional insured on the insurance
policy. Buyer shall furnish Seller with a certificate of insurance evidencing
compliance with this Section 10.6 and referencing this Agreement within ten (10)
days of the Closing Date or, in the event of insurance renewal, within ten (10)
days of such renewal.

ARTICLE 11

Termination.

11.1 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated at any time
prior to the Closing Date with the mutual written consent of Buyer and Seller.

11.2 Automatic Termination. This Agreement shall terminate automatically if
the Closing Date shall not have occurred on or before the 30th day after the

parties hereto.

ARTICLE 12

Miscellaneous.

12.1 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns;
provided, however, that no assignment shall be made by either party without the
prior express written consent of the other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
either party may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without
such consent to an Affiliate or in connection with a sale, merger or other
transaction involving substantially all of its assets of the business relating
to the Purchased Assets.

12.2 No Press Release Without Consent. No press release related to this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein, or other announcement to the
customers or suppliers of Seller will be issued without the joint approval of
Seller and Buyer, except: (a) any public disclosure which Seller or Buyer in its
good faith judgment believes is required by law or by any stock exchange or
interdealer quotation system on which its securities are listed or quoted (in
which case the party making the disclosure will use its reasonable best efforts
to consult with the other party prior to making any such disclosure) and (b)
that Seller may make an announcement related to this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby to its employees.

12.3 Confidentiality. Except as required by applicable law, all information
related to the Products supplied to Buyer by Seller shall be maintained in
strict confidence by Buyer and its employees, advisors, directors, officers and
agents, and all information supplied to Seller by Buyer in connection with this
Agreement shall be maintained in strict confidence by Seller and its employees,
advisors, directors, officers and agents, in each case in accordance with the
Confidentiality Agreement dated as of May 6, 2005 between Buyer and Seller (the
"Confidentiality Agreement"), and in the event that this Agreement is
terminated, all written materials relating thereto shall be returned to Seller
or Buyer, as the case may be, or destroyed as provided in the Confidentiality
Agreement and Buyer and Seller shall each deliver an officer's certificate to
the other certifying as to such return or destruction. In such event, Buyer and
Seller and their employees, advisors and agents shall make no further use of
such information whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as necessary, Buyer
may disclose any information regarding the Products to its existing and
prospective lenders, investors, partners and agents; provided, however, that
upon completion of the Transfer of Manufacturing Technology, the only disclosure
that Buyer may provide regarding Seller is that it has acquired the Products
from Seller (except as additional disclosure may be required by applicable law).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Other Agreements
or the Confidentiality Agreement, Buyer agrees that Seller shall be permitted to
disclose information regarding Buyer and the transactions contemplated hereby to
the extent necessary to assign an undivided one-half interest in US Patent No.
5,260,872 to a third party, in connection with any sale of Seller's tissue
culture based urokinase product marketed under the brand name Abbokinase(R).
After the Closing, Seller will treat all confidential information relating to
the Purchased Assets as confidential information of Buyer subject to the
restrictions contained in the Confidentiality Agreement.

12.4 Expenses. Subject to Section 9.3(b), each party shall bear its own
expenses with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

12.5 Severability. Each of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall
be severable, and the unenforceability of one shall not affect the
enforceability of any others or of the remainder of this Agreement.

12.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented or
otherwise modified except by an instrument in writing signed by all of the
parties hereto. This Agreement, the Other Agreements and the Confidentiality
Agreement contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the
transactions covered hereby, superseding all negotiations, prior discussions and
preliminary agreements made prior to the date hereof.

12.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit
of the parties hereto and their permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or
implied (including Article 10), shall give or be construed to give to any
Person, other than the parties hereto and such permitted assigns, any legal or
equitable rights hereunder.

12.8 Waiver. The failure of any party to enforce any condition or part of
this Agreement at any time shall not be construed as a waiver of that condition
or part, nor shall it forfeit any rights to future enforcement thereof. The
provisions hereof may be waived by either party only by express written consent
of such party.

12.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard
to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

12.10 Headings. The headings of the sections and subsections of this

respective Affiliates to, at the request of another party, execute and deliver
to such other party all such further instruments, assignments, assurances and
other documents as such other party may reasonably request in connection with
the carrying out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

shall be in writing and be given in person or by means of telex, facsimile or

12.14 Schedules. Buyer and Seller agree that any disclosure in any Schedule
attached hereto shall (a) constitute a disclosure under each other applicable
Schedule referred to herein for all purposes of this Agreement, whether or not
such disclosure is specifically referenced within such other Schedule, if it is
reasonably apparent on the face of the disclosure that it is applicable to any
particular Schedule, and (b) not establish any threshold of materiality. Seller

obligation contained herein. No such supplemental or amended Schedule shall be
deemed to cure any breach for purposes of Section 8.1(b) or

breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation which would have
existed if Seller or Buyer had not made such supplement or amendment, and all
references to any Schedule hereto which is supplemented or amended as provided
in this Section 12.14 shall for all purposes at and after the Closing be deemed

of this Agreement. Words in the singular shall be deemed to include the plural
and vice versa and words of one gender shall be deemed to include the other
gender as the context requires. The terms "hereof," "herein," and "herewith" and
words of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to
this Agreement as a whole (including all of the Schedules and Exhibits hereto)
and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. Article, Section, Exhibit
and Schedule references are to the Articles, Sections, Exhibits, and Schedules
to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Unless otherwise stated, all
references to any agreement shall be deemed to include the exhibits, schedules
and annexes to such agreement. The word "including" and words of similar import
when used in this Agreement shall mean "including, without limitation," unless
the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified. The word "or"
shall not be exclusive. Unless otherwise specified in a particular case, the
word "days" refers to calendar days. References herein to this Agreement or any
Other Agreement shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement or such Other
