NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE (1) -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.
NOTE (2) -- NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Net loss per common share is based on net loss for the relevant period
divided by the weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding during
the period. Stock options and common stock issuable upon conversion of warrants
are not reflected as their effect would be antidilutive for both primary and
fully diluted earnings per share computations.
NOTE (3) -- COLLABORATION AND STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENTS
On May 31, 1996, the Company entered into a Collaboration Agreement and
Common Stock Purchase Agreement with N.V. Organon ("Organon"). Organon
purchased 168,623 shares of the Company's common stock for $4,165,000 and
under the terms of the Collaboration Agreement will provide research
funding, license fees and future milestone payments as products are developed.
NOTE (4) -- LONG-LIVED ASSETS
On January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 121, "Accounting For the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Asssets to be Disposed Of."
The Company records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations
and intangible assets, when events and circumstances indicate that the assets
might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flow estimated to be generated by
those assets are less than the carrying amounts of those assets. The
adoption of SFAS 121 had no material impact on the Company's financial
condition or results of operations.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Pharmacopeia, Inc. ("Pharmacopeia" or the "Company") was incorporated
in March 1993 and is engaged in research and development and chemical library
production for collaborations and for its own use. The Company's research
and development has focused on efficient, cost effective, high throughput
systems for synthesizing and screening large libraries of chemicals for new
drug discovery and optimization. The Company has incurred losses since
inception and, as of September 30, 1996 had an accumulated deficit of $25.7
million. The Company anticipates incurring additional losses over at least
the next several years as it expands its research and development and
chemical library production efforts. The Company expects that its losses
will fluctuate from quarter to quarter and that such variations may be
substantial.
-6-
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company expects that its revenue sources for at least the next
several years will be limited to future collaboration payments from Schering
Corporation and Schering-Plough Ltd. ("Schering-Plough"), Berlex Laboratories,
Inc. ("Berlex"), Sandoz Pharma, Ltd. ("Sandoz"), Bayer Corporation ("Bayer"),
Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ("Daiichi"), N.V. Organon ("Organon") and
from other customers under arrangements that may be entered into in the
future. The timing and amounts of such revenues, if any, will likely
fluctuate. Historical results should not be viewed as indicative of future
operating results. The Company will be required to conduct significant
research, development and production activities during the next several years
to fulfill its obligations under the Schering-Plough, Berlex, Sandoz, Bayer,
Daiichi, and Organon collaborative agreements and to develop other
collaborations and technologies. The Company does not anticipate having net
income in the next several years.
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995
Revenues totaled $4.6 million and $1.5 million in the three months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase of $3.1 million
primarily reflects expanded efforts in the Company's collaborations with
Schering-Plough, Berlex, Sandoz, Bayer, Daiichi and Organon. The 1995
revenues were attributable entirely to the Schering-Plough and Berlex
collaborations.
The Company incurred research and development expenses of $6.0 million
and $2.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 1996 and September
30, 1995, respectively. These increased amounts primarily reflect increased
salaries and personnel expenses inasmuch as the Company continued to hire
additional research and development personnel, equipment depreciation and
facilities expenses, and laboratory supplies purchased in connection with the
expansion of the Company's chemical library production and screening efforts
for collaborations and for its own use.
General and administrative expenses increased by $0.5 million to $1.4
million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 from the three months
ended September 30, 1995. The increase is primarily attributable to
increased payroll and personnel expenses inasmuch as the Company continued
to hire additional management and administrative personnel and the increased
legal, insurance and other professional fees incurred in connection with the
overall scale up of the Company's operations.
The Company had interest income of $1.0 million and $0.1 million in the
three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase
in interest income resulted from higher balances of cash and investment
securities from the public offering of common stock and to a lesser extent,
from research collaboration payments. Interest expense for both periods is a
result of increases in notes payable and capital lease obligations.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995
Revenues totaled $9.5 million and $3.6 million in the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase of $5.9 million
primarily reflects expanded efforts in the Company's collaborations with
Schering-Plough, Berlex, Sandoz, Bayer, Daiichi and Organon. The 1995
revenues were attributable entirely to the Schering-Plough and Berlex
collaborations.
The Company incurred research and development expenses of $14.6 million
and $7.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and September
30, 1995, respectively. These increased amounts primarily reflect increased
salaries and personnel expenses inasmuch as the Company continued to hire
additional research and development personnel, equipment depreciation and
facilities expenses, and laboratory supplies purchased in connection with the
expansion of the Company's chemical library production and screening efforts
for collaborations and for its own use.
-7-
<PAGE>
Research and development expenses are expected to continue to increase
as the Company further expands its activities and incurs, among other things,
expenses related to staff increases, increased rent for expanded facilities,
and increased equipment and reagent purchases.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1.3 million to $3.9
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 from the nine months
ended September 30, 1995. The increase is primarily attributable to
increased payroll and personnel expenses inasmuch as the Company continued to
hire additional management and administrative personnel and increased legal,
insurance and other professional fees incurred in connection with the overall
scale up of the Company's operations.
The Company had interest income of $2.9 million and $0.5 million in the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase in
interest income resulted from higher balances of cash and investment
securities from the public offering of common stock and to a lesser extent,
from research collaboration payments. Increases in interest expense for both
periods is a result of increases in notes payable and capital lease
obligations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of $59.6
million. The Company has funded its activities through September 30, 1996
primarily through the sale of equity securities, funding under collaborative
arrangements and equipment financing. From inception through September 30,
1996, the Company received $92.4 million in net proceeds from equity
financing, received $26.8 million in research and development and license
fees under collaborative agreements, and utilized $3.0 million of equipment
financing.
In connection with the Company's agreement with the Trustees of
Columbia University and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, the Company is
required to pay annual license fees and, in addition, expend $3.0 million and
$4.0 million for the one year periods ending mid-July 1996 and 1997,
respectively, in development and commercialization of the licensed
technology. The $3.0 million expenditure requirement for 1996 has been met by
the Company. The Company is also required to pay to Columbia University
certain royalties. In addition, as of September 30, 1996, the Company had
outstanding commitments for construction and equipment purchases totaling
$1.1 million. The Company anticipates that its capital requirements will
increase over the next two years as the Company expands its research and
development activities. In connection with such expansion, the Company
expects to incur substantial expenditures for hiring additional management,
scientific and administrative personnel and for planned expansion of its
facilities and replacement of laboratories currently subleased, including
acquisition of additional equipment.
The Company anticipates that its existing capital resources will be
adequate to fund the Company's operations at least through 1998. There can
be no assurance that changes will not occur that would consume available
capital resources before such time. The Company's capital requirements
depend on numerous factors, including the ability of the Company to enter
into additional collaborative arrangements, competing technological and
market developments, changes in the Company's existing collaborative
relationships, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing
patent claims and other intellectual property rights, the purchase of
additional capital equipment, the progress of the Company's drug discovery
programs and the progress of the Company's customers' milestone and royalty
producing activities. There can be no assurance that additional funding, if
necessary, will be available on favorable terms, if at all. The Company's
forecasts of the period of time through which its financial resources will be
adequate to support its operations is forward looking information, and actual
results could vary. The factors described earlier in this paragraph will
impact the Company's future capital requirements and the adequacy of its
available funds.

ARTICLE V. RENT
501. Tenant shall pay to Landlord as minimum rent the sum of ONE
MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,720,000) per year in equal
monthly installments in advance of ONE HUNDRED FORTY-THREE THOUSAND THREE
HUNDRED THIRTY-THREE DOLLARS ($143,333) each. The first monthly installment of
minimum rent shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on the Commencement Date and
thereafter on the first day of each calendar month. In the event the lease term
shall commence at any time other than the first day of a calendar month, the
rental payment shall be pro rated for said month on a per diem basis. In the
event rental payments have not been received within 15 days from the date the
monthly rental payments are due, in addition to any and all remedies available
to Landlord under this Lease, Tenant shall be charged and shall pay, in addition
to the outstanding rental payments, interest on the delinquent sum at the rate
of prime plus 2% which prime shall be the "prime" or "base" in effect for The
Bank of New York. This charge shall not preclude or be deemed a waiver of
Landlord's rights under Article XX of this Lease.
502. In addition to the minimum rent referred to above, Tenant shall
pay, as Additional Rent, Real Estate Taxes as set forth below:
(a) For each year or part of a year occurring within the Term,
Tenant shall pay directly to applicable taxing authorities all real estate
taxes, assessments (subject to Section 502(h) below), water and sewer rents,
rates and charges (the "REAL ESTATE TAXES") which shall be levied, imposed or
assessed upon the Real Property, which shall be paid on or before the date that
any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added thereto for non-payment
thereof. Tenant shall produce receipts to Landlord evidencing Tenant's timely
payment of Real Estate Taxes. Landlord shall, promptly after receipt thereof by
Landlord, forward all tax bills to Tenant.
(b) Tenant may take the benefit of the provision of any statute
or ordinance permitting any Real Estate Tax to be paid over a period of time but
if Tenant elects to do so, Tenant shall nevertheless pay all unpaid installments
prior to the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease, whether or not such
installments are then due.
(c) In the event the Real Estate Taxes have not been finally
determined by
-2-
<PAGE>
legal proceedings or otherwise at the time of payment of Real Estate Taxes for
any subsequent year, the actual amount of Real Estate Taxes billed to Landlord
shall be used to calculate such taxes. Upon a final determination of the Real
Estate Taxes by legal proceedings or otherwise, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant
a statement setting forth the amount of Real Estate Taxes as finally determined
and showing the computation of any adjustment due by reason thereof. Any
payment due to Landlord or any credit due to Tenant by reason of such adjustment
shall be made as provided herein.
(d) If Landlord shall receive any tax refund in respect of any
tax year for Real Estate Taxes which are Tenant's obligation and which have been
paid by Tenant, Landlord shall deduct from such tax refund any expenses incurred
in obtaining such tax refund, and the remaining balance of such tax refund shall
be reimbursed by Landlord directly to the Tenant by check within 30 days. Any
reasonable expenses incurred by Landlord in contesting the validity or the
amount of the assessed valuation of the Real Property or of any Real Estate
Taxes for any year, to the extent not offset by a tax refund, shall be included
as an item of Real Estate Taxes for the tax year in which such contest shall be
finally determined for the purpose of computing the Additional Rent due Landlord
or any payment due to Tenant hereunder.
(e) If the tax year for Real Estate Taxes shall be changed,
then an appropriate adjustment shall be made in the computation of the
Additional Rent due to Landlord or any credit due to Tenant, in accordance with
sound accounting principles to effectuate the changeover to any new tax year
adopted by any taxing authority. Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of
any increase in Real Estate Taxes or assessments within 30 days after Landlord's
receipt of notice of such increase, but in any event prior to the date of the
running of any appeal period. "REAL ESTATE TAXES" as set forth in this Section
502 shall mean those taxes attributable to the Real Property, provided that, if
because of any change in the method of taxation of real estate, any other tax or
assessment is imposed upon Landlord or the owner of the Land or the Building or
both or upon or with respect to the Land or the Building or both or the rents or
income therefrom in substitution for or in lieu of any tax or assessment which
would otherwise be a Real Estate Tax, such other tax or assessment shall be
deemed Real Estate Taxes for the purposes herein.
(f) If the last year of the Term ends on any day other than the
last day of a tax year, any payment due to Landlord or credit due to Tenant by
reason of any increase in Real Estate Taxes shall be prorated and Tenant
covenants to pay any amount due to Landlord within 30 days after being billed
therefor and Landlord covenants to credit any amount due to Tenant, as the case
may be. These covenants shall survive the expiration or termination of this
Lease.
(g) Tenant shall have the right within 30 days after notice
from Landlord to either request Landlord to appeal any increased assessment
resulting in any increase in Real Estate Taxes or to undertake the appeal
pursuant to the following provisions. Tenant shall have this right provided it
is not then in default under the lease and continues to conform and abide by any
and all provisions then in effect which must be fulfilled in order to allow for
such appeal
-3-
<PAGE>
including but not limited to the payment of any and all taxes which said taxing
authority requires to be paid within the time frame so specified, and provided
further that Tenant escrows with Landlord (or if required by Landlord's
Mortgagee, with such Mortgagee) an amount equal to the tax in dispute. Tenant
agrees should it so request Landlord in writing to file said appeal on Tenant's
behalf or if Tenant elects to undertake directly this appeal on its own behalf
to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless as well as any assignee or nominee of
Landlord, its mortgagee or any other person or entity against any and all costs
including but not limited to any further increases in the assessment in the
event that said taxing authority should elect, on any appeal by Tenant or by
Landlord at Tenant's request, if allowed by law, to cross appeal on its own
behalf said assessment and should be successful in further increasing the
assessment and/or other tax rate. Landlord agrees it will not appeal any
increased tax assessment without Tenant's consent, which will not be
unreasonably withheld, except no such consent of Tenant shall be required during
the final year of the Lease term.
(h) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if any
special assessments are levied against the Premises, Tenant shall be responsible
only for its proportional costs on a pro rata basis relating to the extent of
the Lease term over the total useful life of the improvements which are the
basis of such assessment. However, if such assessment was made by a reason of a
condition which has been created by, or at the instance of Tenant, or is
attributable to the use or manner of use to which Tenant puts the Premises, or
is attributable to a breach by Tenant of any of its covenants and agreements in
this Lease, Tenant shall be responsible for the entire assessment.
503. It should be understood that this Lease is to be considered a
"NET LEASE" and that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Lease, the
Tenant shall pay all utilities and expenses incurred in the operation and
maintenance of the Building and incurred in the operation or maintenance of the
entire Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing or Section 402 above, it is
understood and agreed that Landlord shall be responsible for repairs of any
structural defects or latent defects to the roof, walls and foundations of the
Building, unless such defects are caused by Tenant's use and occupancy of the
Premises. If any such structural defects or latent defects render the Premises
untenantable, and Landlord fails to make the repairs within 30 days after
written notice to Tenant, Tenant shall have the option to make such repairs or
replacements at its own cost and expense, and if Tenant obtains a final, non-
appealable judgment in a court of competent jurisdiction that Landlord was
obligated to make such repairs, Tenant shall be entitled to recover from
Landlord (and offset against rent) the amount expended by Tenant, plus interest
at the rate specified in Section 501, and reasonable attorneys' fees. Unless
and until Tenant obtains such a final, non-appealable judgment, it shall
continue to pay all rent, without offset, and Tenant's sole recourse, if such a
judgment is obtained against Landlord shall be against Landlord or against
future rents during the term of the Lease.
Tenant confirms that (a) the existing Building is acceptable for
Tenant's intended use, (b) the current condition of the Building, roof, walls
and foundation are acceptable, except that certain decorative slate panels glued
to the exterior facade of the Building have fallen
-4-
<PAGE>
off in the past, and (c) Tenant has no knowledge of any structural defects.
During each calendar year of the Lease term, or extended term,
if applicable, pro rata for any period less than a year, Tenant shall pay
Landlord, as Additional Rent, promptly upon being billed, a sum equal to the
Operating Expenses of the entire Premises for such calendar year which have not
otherwise been paid directly by Tenant. "OPERATING EXPENSES" as referred to in
this lease means the following expenses, costs and charges incurred for the
operation, maintenance and repair of the Land and Building:
(a) Cost of all insurance carried by Landlord, provided
premiums for insurance against loss or damage to the Building shall not exceed
SEVENTY-TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS ($72,000) per year during the initial term of this
Lease. However, Tenant shall be responsible for any and all increase in
premiums caused by its occupancy and use of the Demised or Leased Premises,
including without limitation increases caused by any alterations or improvements
installed by Tenant, Tenant's breach of this Lease, or any other act or omission
of Tenant;
(b) Landlord's management fees equal to 5% of minimum rent,
which Tenant shall pay directly to the management company, if so directed by
Landlord;
(c) Cleaning, garbage removal, landscaping and grounds
maintenance, and any other maintenance charges reasonable required in the
operation of a building of this type that are requested to be performed by
Landlord, or which Landlord elects to perform after written notice to Tenant
that Tenant has failed to maintain the Premises as required by this Lease.
All expenses to be taken into account pursuant to this Section
shall be "net" only and for such purpose shall be deemed reduced by the amounts
of any insurance or other reimbursement, recoupment, payment, discount, credit
reduction or allowance received by Landlord in connection with such expenses.
On account of the Additional Rent payable pursuant to this
Section 503, Tenant shall pay to Landlord on the first day of each month during
the term hereof in advance 1/12th of the amount Landlord estimates will be due
to Landlord hereunder for the current year. Not later than May 1 of each year
of this Lease, Landlord shall render a bill to Tenant, with appropriate
documentation, for such Additional Rent, together with a statement in reasonable
detail of the Operating Expenses, together with particular invoices, if
requested by Tenant and if available to Landlord, and within 60 days after the
rendering of such billing and statement, Tenant will pay any additional amount
shown to be due by said statement, or Landlord will credit any overpayment by
Tenant against payments thereafter to become due by Tenant pursuant to this
section and the other provisions of this Lease. If the credit exceeds one
month's rent, and provided Tenant is not then in default, Landlord will
reimburse Tenant by check within 60 days.
504. All sums payable under this Lease by Tenant, or which are at the
expense
-5-
<PAGE>

have with respect thereto all the rights and remedies provided for herein and by
law for the nonpayment of rent.

be paid without notice or demand, and without deduction (except as expressly

governmental or quasi-governmental agency, authority or body having jurisdiction
over ISRA or the Spill Act or otherwise, relative to compliance with this
Section 601(j).
11. Tenant agrees that each and every provision of this
Section 601(j) shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the term
of this Lease, the parties hereto expressly agreeing and acknowledging that
Landlord would not enter into this Lease but for the provisions of this Section
601(j) and the aforesaid survival thereof.
12. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that Tenant's
obligations pursuant to this Section 601(j) shall be with respect to Tenant's
occupancy of the Demised or Leased Premises (including periods of occupancy by
Tenant prior to the Commencement Date) and not otherwise. During the term of
this Lease and at its termination, to the extent that the Tenant may be subject
to ISRA and the Spill Act and/or any other statute relating to the analysis of
or remediation of environmental conditions at the site, the levels of
contamination (if any) which were found on the site at the time this Lease was
entered into shall be Landlord's responsibility, except that as to any space in
the Premises occupied by Tenant prior to the
-11-
<PAGE>
Commencement Date (whether as subtenant of Enichem or otherwise) Tenant shall be
responsible for all conditions arising from and after the date on which Tenant
took occupancy of the space and which were caused by Tenant's use and occupancy.
Tenant agrees that any Negative Declaration or Certificate of Non-Applicability
obtained by Enichem under ISRA shall constitute confirmation that any future
environmental problem was not caused by and is not attributable to the actions
of the prior tenant, provided that Tenant shall not be bound by any false
representations made by Enichem in connection with any applications or
submissions made by Enichem to DEP.
602. Without the express prior written consent and approval of the
Landlord, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, Tenant, its agents,

shareholder or shareholders or trading of its stock on a recognized public stock
exchange, unless the merger or other action results in the surviving entity
being at least as creditworthy as Tenant (after adjusting for any net loss carry
forward). Creditworthiness shall be tested by reference to net worth, but net
worth shall not necessarily be the exclusive test.
(c) make any alterations, improvements or additions to the
Demised Premises except as permitted and provided in Article XVI hereof;

whereby the same shall be rated as a more hazardous risk than at the execution
hereof or at the time Tenant takes possession of the Demised Premises unless
Tenant agrees to pay such additional costs.
(g) except as is normally incident to the manufacture of
pharmaceutical products, or performance of pharmaceutical research and in
compliance with law, permit to continue any odor, noise, sound or vibration
which may, be detected outside the Building, and if
-12-
<PAGE>

noxious fumes may be expelled into the air, it shall be Tenant's responsibility
to immediately correct and eliminate any such emission or such incident and/or
to correct any such noise, sound or vibration.
(h) use or permit any of the toilet rooms, water closets,

(j) inscribe, paint or affix or permit to be inscribed,
painted, or affixed by any one any sign, advertisement or notice on any part of
the Building, inside or out, except within the Demised Premises. Notwithstanding
this provision, Landlord agrees, subject to compliance with applicable laws and
regulations and Landlord's approval as to the aesthetics of such, Tenant shall
have a right to place a sign on the land in front of the building, which sign
shall be maintained by Tenant at its expense.

otherwise;
(r) attach any awnings, antennae or other projection to the
roof or outside walls of the Demised Premises or of the Building;
(s) execute or deliver any financing or security agreement or

right, but shall be under no obligation, to do the following things (at any time

Building;
(a) discontinue any facility or service not expressly

Tenant under this Lease, when such suspension shall become necessary by reason

whenever such suspension is anticipated;

ARTICLE VIII. COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT
801. Landlord warrants that (a) it has the power and authority to
enter into this Lease, and (b) so long as Tenant performs every monetary and
material non-monetary obligation of Tenant under this Lease, Tenant shall
quietly enjoy the Demised Premises without hindrance by Landlord or anyone
claiming under the Landlord, subject however, to all of the provision of this
Lease.
-15-
<PAGE>
ARTICLE IX. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION,
INDEMNIFICATION AND PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE
901. Tenant shall be responsible for and shall relieve, indemnify and
save Landlord harmless from and against: (a) all liability for loss of life,
personal injury and/or damage to property occurring in or about the Demised
Premises unless caused by the gross negligence of Landlord, its agents,
servants, employees, or invitees, and (b) any loss or damage from Tenant's
failure to perform its obligations under this Lease.
902. Tenant shall maintain and pay for sufficient public liability
insurance to cover such indemnification in companies acceptable to Landlord,
naming Landlord, Landlord's Mortgagee and Tenant as insured, with minimum limit
of ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000) for bodily injury or death to a single
person, and FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($5,000,000) in respect to any one accident,
and FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($50,000) for property damage. Tenant shall deposit
such insurance policy, policies or certificates with Landlord with endorsement
thereto that (a) the policy will not be canceled without at least ten days prior
written notice to Landlord and Landlord's Mortgagee and (b) no act or omission
of Tenant will invalidate the interest of Landlord or Landlord's Mortgagee under
said insurance.
903. Landlord and Tenant hereby release the other from any and all
liability or responsibility to the other or anyone claiming through or under
them by way of subrogation or otherwise for any loss or damage to property
covered by any insurance then in force, even if such loss or damage shall have
been caused by the fault or negligence of the other party, or anyone for whom
such party may be responsible, provided, however, that this release shall be
applicable and in force and effect only with respect to any loss or damage
occurring during such time as the policy or policies of insurance covering said
loss shall contain a clause or endorsement to the effect that this release shall
not adversely affect or impair said insurance or prejudice the right of the
insured to recover thereunder. Landlord and Tenant shall each have such clause
in its fire and extended coverage insurance policies if available without extra
charge, and if there be a charge, shall notify the other party and, in such
event, shall have the clause if the other party agrees to pay such extra charge.
904. It shall be Landlord's responsibility to provide appropriate
property damage insurance in sufficient amounts to insure the replacement of any
items which are the responsibility of Landlord under the terms of this Lease,
the Building and any other fixtures or equipment purchased by Landlord. Landlord
shall provide to Tenant, upon request, an appropriate certificate reflecting
this coverage. The cost of such insurance shall be an Operating Expense.
ARTICLE X. WAIVER OF CLAIMS
1001. Unless caused by its willful or gross negligence, Landlord and
Landlord's agents, servants and employees shall not be liable for, and Tenant
hereby releases Landlord and
-16-
<PAGE>
Landlord's agents, servants and employees from all claims for injury or damage
to person or loss of or damage to property (including any disappearance or theft
of property and any loss or interruption of business) sustained by Tenant, any
person claiming through Tenant, or sustained by any other person, resulting from
any fire, accident, occurrence or condition in or upon the Demised Premises,
Land and Building or streets, sidewalks, lawns, gardens, parking areas (if any)
or other areas abutting or adjacent to said Land or Building, including but not
limited to such claims for damages resulting from (i) any defect in or failure
of plumbing, heating or air conditioning equipment, elevators, electric wiring
or installation thereof, water pipes, stairs, railings or walks; (ii) any
equipment or appurtenances becoming out of repair; (iii) the bursting, leaking
or running of any tank, washstand, water closet, waste pipe, drain or any other
pipe or tank in, upon or about the Land, Building or Demised Premises; (iv) the
backing up of any sewer pipe or downspout; (v) the escape of steam or hot water;
(vi) water, snow or ice being upon or coming through the roof or any other place
upon or near such Building or premises or otherwise; (vii) the falling of any
fixture, plaster, or stucco; (viii) broken glass; (ix) any act of omission of
co-tenants or other occupants of the building or adjoining or contiguous
property or buildings; (x) the exercise of any rights by Landlord under this
Lease; (xi) any act or omission of Landlord, its agents, servants and employees,
unless said act or omission shall constitute a willful breach of law or a
willful breach of this Lease; (xii) any act or omission of parties other than
Landlord, its employees or agents. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord
harmless with regard to any damage or liability occurring on the Demised
Premises or in connection with any act or negligence of Tenant.
ARTICLE XI. CONDEMNATION
1101. Tenant hereby waives any injury, loss or damage, or claim
therefor, resulting from any exercise of a power of eminent domain affecting all
or any part of the Demised Premises or the air rights, Land or Building, except
that Tenant reserves against the condemning authority Tenant's right to, and
separate claim for, any damages for loss of good will, machinery and moving
expenses payable to tenants or lessees under the appropriate state code; in no
event, however, shall Tenant have or make any claim against Landlord, or the
condemning authority or any party having an interest in the air rights, Land or
Building, which would diminish or reduce the award for the air rights, Land or
Building.
1102. In the event substantially all of the Demised Premises shall be
taken as a result of the exercise of a power of eminent domain, this Lease shall
terminate as of the date the right to possession vests in the condemning
authority and rent shall be apportioned as of that date. If only a part of the
Demised Premises shall be so taken, and this Lease is not terminated by Landlord
as hereinafter provided, the rent shall be abated in proportion to the area so
taken, as of the date the right to possession vests in the condemning authority.
1103. In the event any part of the air rights, Land or Building, shall
be taken as a result of the exercise of a power of eminent domain (whether or
not the Demised Premises shall be affected), Landlord may, and Tenant may, if
such taking shall materially affect the operations
-17-
<PAGE>
of Tenant, by written notice to the other party, given within 60 days after the
date of taking, terminate this Lease as of a date (to be set forth in said
notice) not earlier than 30 days after the date of the notice; rent shall be
apportioned as of the termination date.
1104. If the Demised Premises or the Building (a) are declared unsafe
by any duly constituted authority having the power to make such determination,
or (b) are the subject of a violation notice or notice requiring repair or
reconstruction, Landlord at its option, and provided such repair shall cost in
excess of available condemnation awards may terminate this Lease, and in such
event, Tenant shall immediately surrender said premises to Landlord and
thereupon this Lease shall terminate and the rent shall be apportioned as of the
date of such termination. In such event, Tenant waives all claims for injury,
and further waives all claims by reasons of any required surrender of possession
of the Demised Premises. In the event such repair shall be in excess of
available condemnation awards, Tenant shall have the option to make such repairs
at its own cost and expense, providing Tenant shall comply with any and all
provisions set forth in Article XVI of this Lease. In the event such repair
shall not cost in excess of available condemnation awards, Landlord shall be
required to make such repairs.
ARTICLE XII. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION
1201. If the Demised Premises are damaged by the elements or fire or
other casualty, not due to Tenant's negligence, Landlord (subject to
Section 1202 below) shall repair the damage, but the rent shall not be abated
unless the Demised Premises are thereby rendered untenantable in whole or in
part; if rendered untenantable only in part, the minimum rent and additional
rent shall be abated in proportion to the part rendered untenantable; if
rendered wholly untenantable, the entire minimum rent and additional rent shall
be abated provided, however, that in such event Landlord shall have the right to
terminate this Lease as of the date of the occurrence by written notice to
Tenant within 60 days thereafter. In the event such repair shall be in excess
of available insurance proceeds, Tenant shall have the option to make such
repairs at its own cost and expense, providing Tenant shall comply with any and
all provisions set forth in Article XVI of this Lease. In the event such repair
shall not cost in excess of available insurance proceeds, Landlord shall be
required to make such repairs. However, if such casualty has occurred during
the last six months of the Lease Term, or any extended Term, Landlord need not
repair or restore unless Tenant has agreed or then agrees to exercise either the
first or second option under this Lease.
1202. If the Building shall, in Landlord's opinion, be substantially
damaged to the extent of more than available insurance proceeds by the elements
or fire or other casualty, or in its reasonable opinion cannot be repaired
within 60 days, Landlord shall have the right, provided Tenant has not exercised
its rights under Section 1201 above, by written notice to Tenant within 60 days
after said occurrence, to terminate this Lease (unless terminated pursuant to
Section 1201) or if not repaired by Landlord within said 60 day period Tenant
may, after 30 days following said 60 day period, upon written notice, cancel its
obligations under this Lease and in either such event this Lease shall end as of
the date of such notice and the minimum rent and additional rent shall be
adjusted as of the date of said occurrence.

ARTICLE XIII. SUBORDINATION TO
LANDLORD'S DOCUMENTS OF POSSESSION AND MORTGAGE
1301. Tenant acknowledges that this Lease and Tenant's rights
hereunder are subject and subordinate to (a) all agreements by and through which
Landlord has possession of the Building and the Demised Premises (herein
referred to as "Landlord's documents of possession") and to all mortgages now or
hereafter placed upon the Landlord's estate in the Building and the Demised
Premises and, if there be merger of Landlord's estate and the fee title, upon
the fee title.
1302. If any Mortgagee or other person shall acquire title to the
Landlord's estate or the Demised Premises or building for foreclosure, deed in
lieu thereof, or otherwise, or, at any time during the term of this Lease, the
Landlord of the Demised Premises shall be the holder of a leasehold estate
covering Premises which include the Demised Premises, and if such leasehold
estate shall terminate or be terminated for any reason, Tenant agrees, at the
election and upon written notice of any owner of the premises which include the
Demised Premises, or, of any Mortgagee in possession thereof, or of any holder
of a leasehold thereafter affecting premises which include the Demised Premises,
to attorn, from time to time, to any such owner Mortgagee or holder, upon the
terms and conditions set forth herein for the remainder of the term demised in
this Lease, subject to Section 1303 below.
The foregoing provisions shall enure to the benefit of any such
owner, Mortgagee or holder and shall be self-operative upon any such demand,
without requiring any further instrument to give effect to such provisions.
Tenant, however, upon demand of any such owner, mortgagee or holder, agrees to
execute, from time to time, an instrument in confirmation of the foregoing
provisions, satisfactory to any such owner, mortgagee or holder, in which Tenant
shall acknowledge such attornment and shall set forth the terms and conditions
of its tenancy, which shall be the same as those set forth herein and shall
apply for the remainder of the term originally demised in this Lease. Nothing
contained in this article shall be construed to impair any right otherwise
exercisable to any such owner, mortgagee or holder. As a condition of Tenant's
obligations under this Section 1302, any present or future mortgagee shall
furnish a Subordination and Non-Disturbance Agreement for the benefit of Tenant
as provided in Section 1303 below.
1303. Notwithstanding Sections 1301 and 1302, this Lease shall not be
subordinate to any Mortgage hereafter placed unless the holder of the Mortgage
in question shall provide a non-disturbance agreement to Tenant which shall
provide in substance that so long as Tenant shall not be in default hereunder,
the mortgagee shall not name Tenant as a party defendant in any action to
foreclose the Mortgage nor will this Lease be terminated or the possession of
Tenant of the Premises be disturbed by any such action. Tenant shall, upon
request of the holder of any Mortgage, enter into such subordination and
non-disturbance agreement and if the holder is a bank, insurance company or
other institutional lender, such agreement may
-19-
<PAGE>
contain such other provisions as are contained in such holder's usual or
standard form of subordination and non-disturbance agreement. Within 45 days of
the execution of this Lease, but prior to the effectiveness of this Lease,
Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a subordination and non-disturbance agreement
conforming to the foregoing requirements from Landlord's current mortgagee with
such reasonable terms as are included in such mortgagee's standard form.
ARTICLE XIV. ASSIGNMENTS AND SUBLETTING
1401. Except to an affiliate, parent, or subsidiary of Tenant, Tenant
shall not, without the prior consent of the Landlord (and to the extent required
by Landlord's Mortgagees, the consent of Landlord's Mortgagees), assign,
mortgage or pledge this Lease or underlet or sub-lease the Demised Premises, or
any part thereof, or permit any other person, firm or corporation to occupy the
Demised Premises, or any part thereof, which consent of Landlord (and, if
required, its Mortgagees) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. A
proposed assignment of this lease respecting only a portion of the Demised
Premises shall be deemed a "subletting" within the foregoing sentence. Any
request for an assignment, mortgage or pledge of this lease shall give Landlord
the option (which must be exercised in writing mailed within 15 days after
receipt of written notice from Tenant of latter's intent to assign all of
Demised Premises, and effective upon the date of mailing of such writing by
Landlord), to terminate this lease as of the last day of the month next
succeeding the month during which Landlord mails such written exercise of this
option, and the rights of the parties shall be as if the last day of such month
were the date originally set forth in this lease as of the date of termination
thereof. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the existing
subletting by Tenant of the Greenhouse is a permitted subletting, and Tenant
shall have the right during the initial term of this Lease (but not any renewal
or extension periods) to sublet up to 50% of the space in the Premises in the
aggregate (including the Greenhouse) without Landlord's consent so long as the
net rental and other consideration to be obtained for such subletting is not in
excess of the rental paid to Landlord hereunder. Tenant shall furnish Landlord
with a copy of any agreement pertaining to any assignment or subletting.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, any assignment or subletting (whether
or not consented to by Landlord) shall not release Tenant of any of its
obligations under this Lease.
ARTICLE XV. RULES AND REGULATIONS
1501. Intentionally omitted.
ARTICLE XVI. ALTERATIONS AND
SERVICES BY TENANT AND TRADE FIXTURES
1601. Tenant shall not after commencement and occupancy under the
Lease do any work in or about the Demised Premises or make any alterations or
additions thereto without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent
Landlord will not unreasonably withhold,
-20-
<PAGE>
except Tenant may make such alterations or additions without the prior written
consent of Landlord to the extent of FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($50,000) per
project or related series of projects provided such additions or alterations do
not affect the roof or any structural portion of the Building or affect any
system (s) of the Building. All such work to which Landlord consents shall be
performed and installed at Tenant's sole cost and expense in accordance with
plans and specifications to be supplied by Tenant, which plans, and the
contractors, subcontractors and all suppliers of labor or material shall in all
instances first be subject to Landlord's approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. During the work, Tenant shall maintain such insurance as
Landlord may reasonably require for the benefit of Landlord or such other
parties as Landlord shall designate. Landlord may require that Tenant furnish a
guarantee by each of Tenant's prime contractors and materialmen for the benefit
of Landlord, Tenant and such other parties as Landlord shall designate that all
work, materials and equipment will be in accordance with the plans and
specifications and that they will promptly, upon notice, correct and repair at
their own cost and expense any deficiency, defect, fault or imperfection of
materials, equipment or workmanship which appears within one year after
completion of their work or installation.
1602. No work or installation by Tenant at the Demised Premises, Land
or Building, shall be done except after providing to Landlord appropriate
assurances including, but not limited to, guarantees and indemnifications in
connection with the possible filing of any mechanics liens and/or notice of
intention to file a mechanics lien, filing of a waiver of the right to file any
lien therefor (commonly known as a "mechanics" lien) in the local Office, as
provided by law, so as to constitute an effective waiver by anyone having a
right to file such a lien, if such a notice of intention is filed. If any such
lien is filed, Tenant shall cause it to be discharged or satisfied within 30
days of filing.
1603. No work, services or installation by Tenant in or about the
Demised Premises, Land or Building, shall be performed or installed except by
workmen and mechanics working in harmony and not reasonably interfering with
labor employed by Landlord, landlord's mechanics or their contractors or by any
other Tenant or their contractors. Any violation hereof shall automatically
constitute a permitted cancellation by Landlord of any prior Landlord's consent
to or permission for such work or installation.
1604. Any alterations, improvements or additions made by Tenant after
occupancy under the Lease, except pursuant to a written consent by Landlord
which provides that Tenant may remove the same, shall remain upon the Premises
at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease and shall become the
property of Landlord, unless prior to the termination of this lease, Landlord
gives Tenant written notice to remove the same, in which event Tenant shall
remove them and restore the Premises to the same good order and condition in
which they were at the time of delivery of possession to Tenant. Tenant need
not remove any new laboratories installed by Tenant in compliance with this
Lease, nor remove other items, if at the time Landlord gives Tenant any consent
as to those items Landlord agrees that Tenant shall not be required to remove
them at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease. Tenant's
-21-
<PAGE>
right to leave new laboratories on the Premises is conditioned upon delivery of
bills of sale to Landlord and delivery of confirmation that the equipment and
other property is not leased and that it is not encumbered. Any other
alterations, improvements or additions made by Landlord for Tenant shall remain
the property of Landlord at expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
Should Tenant fail to remove any alterations, improvements or additions required
to be removed by it, Landlord may do it, and Tenant shall pay the cost and
expense thereof to Landlord as additional rent upon demand.
1605. Except for any fixtures or equipment purchased or installed by
Landlord, which shall belong to the Landlord, all fixtures and equipment owned
by Tenant in the Demised Premises ("TENANT'S FIXTURES"), except lighting
fixtures and air conditioning equipment, shall remain the property of Tenant and
(except as set forth in Section 1604) shall be removed on or before the
termination date of this Lease, but at Landlord's option, any fixtures not
removed on or before the lease termination date shall either become Landlord's
property, or Landlord may remove and dispose of them, and in such event Tenant
shall pay the cost and expense thereof to Landlord as additional rent upon
demand. Upon removal of Tenant's Fixtures, Tenant shall promptly restore the
Demised or Leased Premises to the original order and condition existing
immediately prior to such removal of Tenant's Fixtures and shall repair any and
all damage caused by said removal. Any and all other fixtures installed by
Landlord prior to the commencement of this Lease shall remain the property of
the Landlord.
1606. In the event Tenant shall enter into any arrangement to finance
all or any portion of the Tenant's Fixtures (as defined in Section 1605), either
before or after the installation or placement thereof upon the Leased Premises
and regardless of whether such financing shall be in the form of a security
agreement, equipment lease, equipment sale-leaseback or otherwise, Landlord
agrees within 30 days after request therefor to execute and deliver a customary
waiver of lien to evidence Landlord's agreement that Landlord waives any lien
rights or claims in the Tenant's Fixtures, provided that Landlord and its
Mortgagees first receive (i) an itemized list of the Tenant's Fixtures which are
subject to the Lease or financing arrangement, and (ii) an agreement in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and its Mortgagees that the owner
and/or lessor and/or financing party (x) will not remove any Tenant's Fixtures
except upon prior notice to Landlord and its Mortgagees, and at reasonable
business hours and (y) will indemnify, defend and hold Landlord and its
Mortgagees harmless from and against any loss, cost, liability, damage or
expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) caused by or arising from the
removal of any Tenant's Fixtures.
1607. From and after the Commencement Date Tenant shall have the right
to make exterior aesthetic improvements to the Land and Building ("TENANT'S
WORK"), provided such Tenant's Work otherwise complies with the requirements of
this Article XVI, and Landlord shall pay to Tenant or directly to the parties
invoicing Tenant, in consideration of the performance of such work by Tenant, an
allowance in the sum of up to ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($100,000)
("LANDLORD'S CONTRIBUTION") as follows:

ARTICLE XXIV. SCOPE AND INTERPRETATION OF AGREEMENT
2401. This Lease is the only agreement between the parties hereto

ARTICLE XXVI. SEVERABILITY
2601. If any provision of this Lease is held to be invalid, the
remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby but shall continue in full
force and effect.
ARTICLE XXVII. PARTIES, SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS
2701. The term "TENANT" shall refer to each and every person or party
mentioned as a Tenant herein, be the same one or more. If there shall be more
than one Tenant, they shall be bound jointly and severally by all of the terms,
covenants and agreements of this Lease and any notice required or permitted by

the owner for the time being of Landlord's estate in the Demised Premises or the

covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder after the date of transfer of
Landlord's estate in the Demised Premises or the Building of which it
-27-
<PAGE>
is a part, and it shall be construed without further agreement between the
parties that the transferee has assumed and agreed to carry out any and all
covenants and obligations of Landlord hereunder during such time as said
transferee shall own or hold Landlord's estate or interest in the Demised
Premises or the Building of which it is a part. The provisions of this Article
XXVI shall apply to each successive transfer of Landlord's interest or estate.
The liability of the Landlord under this Lease shall be and is hereby limited to

other person by reason of this Lease, the execution thereof, or the acquisition
of Landlord's interest.

ARTICLE XXVIII. SECURITY DEPOSIT
2801. Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant will deposit with the
Landlord a security deposit in the amount of ONE HUNDRED FORTY-THREE THOUSAND
THREE HUNDRED THIRTY-THREE DOLLARS ($143,333), and a financial information
package acceptable to the Landlord pertaining to Tenant's current financial
condition. The security deposit shall be held by Landlord without interest, and
may be applied by Landlord, at its option, toward the cost of repairing or
replacing any equipment damaged or wrongfully removed from the Demised Premises
and toward repair of damage (other than ordinary wear and tear) to the Demised
Premises or for any other liabilities or indebtedness of Tenant to Landlord, or
if Landlord elects, at its option, for payment of brokerage commissions. This
deposit is not to be used or applied by Tenant as a substitute for rent due any
month but may be so applied by Landlord at any time at Landlord's option. The
use, application or retention of the security deposit, or any portion thereof,
by Landlord shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy
provided by this Lease or by law and shall not operate as a limitation on any
recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. If any portion of the
security deposit is used, applied or retained by Landlord for the purposes set
forth above, Tenant agrees, within ten days after a written demand therefor is
made by Landlord, to deposit cash with the Landlord in an amount sufficient to
restore the security deposit to its original amount; however nothing contained
herein shall require Landlord to make such demand upon Tenant. Notwithstanding
the preceding sentence, Tenant shall not be obligated to restore any part of the
security deposit applied by Landlord to the payment of brokerage commissions.
The balance of the security deposit, if any, will be refunded to Tenant within
30 days after the end of the Lease term and after Tenant has vacated said
Demised Premises after due notice to Landlord.
ARTICLE XXIX. BROKERS
2901. Julien J. Studley, Inc. (the "BROKER) has acted as the sole
broker and finder
-28-
<PAGE>
with respect to this Lease, and Landlord shall be solely responsible for any
commission due the Broker in accordance with a separate agreement between
Landlord and Broker. Except for the Broker, Tenant represents and warrants to
Landlord that Tenant has had no dealings, negotiations or consultations with
respect to the Premises or this transaction with any broker or finder and that
no broker or finder called the Premises to Tenant's attention for lease or took
any part in any dealings, negotiations or consultations with respect to the
Premises or this Lease. In the event that any broker or finder other than
Broker claims to have submitted the Premises to Tenant, to have induced Tenant
to lease the Premises or to have taken part in any dealings, negotiations or
consultations with respect to the Premises or this Lease, Tenant will be
responsible for and will indemnify and save Landlord harmless from and against
all costs, fees (including, without limitation, attorney's fees), expenses,
liabilities and claims incurred or suffered by Landlord as a result thereof.
ARTICLE XXX. OPTIONS TO EXTEND
3001. Provided Tenant is not in default with regard to any of the
monetary or material non-monetary terms of this Lease, the Landlord agrees that
Tenant shall have and is hereby granted two successive options to extend the
term of this Lease for a period of one year on each such option. Such extended
term(s) to begin respectively upon the expiration of the term of this Lease or
of this Lease as extended, and all the terms, covenants and provisions of this
Lease shall apply to each such extended term with the exception, however, that
the Tenant shall not have any further option to again extend the term of this
Lease following the exercise, if any, of the second option to extend. If the
Tenant shall elect to exercise the aforesaid option(s), it shall do so by
written notice to Landlord no later than nine months prior to the expiration of
the term of this Lease or of this Lease as extended. The annual rent (payable
in equal monthly installments on the first day of the month in advance) during
the two option periods shall be as follows:
(a) For the first option period (April 1, 2000 to March 31,
2001), the annual rent shall be ONE MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED TWENTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS ($1,820,000), payable in equal monthly installments in advance of ONE
HUNDRED FIFTY-ONE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED SIXTY-SEVEN DOLLARS ($151,667). All
other terms and conditions of the Lease to remain in full force and effect.

DOLLARS ($1,920,000), payable in equal monthly installments in advance of ONE
