NOTE 1--THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The information presented in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated 
Financial Statements at March 31, 1999, and for the three months ended March 
31, 1999 and 1998, is unaudited, but includes all normal recurring 
adjustments which the management of Chiron Corporation ("Chiron" or the 
"Company") believes to be necessary for fair presentation of the periods 
presented. In addition, certain previously reported amounts have been 
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The condensed 
consolidated balance sheet amounts at December 31, 1998 have been derived 
from audited financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily 
indicative of results for a full year. This information should be read in 
conjunction with Chiron's audited consolidated financial statements for the 
year ended January 3, 1999, which are included in the Annual Report on Form 
10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     In the first quarter of 1998, Chiron completed the sale of its 
ophthalmics business ("Chiron Vision") to Bausch & Lomb Incorporated ("B&L") 
and in the fourth quarter of 1998, Chiron completed the sale of its IN VITRO 
diagnostics business ("Chiron Diagnostics") to Bayer Corporation ("Bayer") 
(see Note 2). The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of 
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 reflect the after-tax 
results of Chiron Diagnostics and the gain on disposal of Chiron Vision as 
discontinued operations.

     On March 31, 1998, in an acquisition accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting, Chiron acquired the remaining 51% interest in Chiron
Behring GmbH & Co ("Chiron Behring") from Hoechst AG. Beginning in the second
quarter of 1998, the results of Chiron Behring were consolidated with those of
the Company.

     Prior to January 1999, the results of Chiron's Italian subsidiary ("Chiron
S.p.A.") were reported on a one-month lag. In the first quarter of 1999, Chiron
S.p.A. was brought current. As a result, during the first quarter of 1999, the
Company recorded a loss of approximately $5.2 million for the month of December
1998 as a component of "Accumulated deficit" in the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets.

     FISCAL YEAR

     Effective with the beginning of fiscal year 1999, the Company changed 
its fiscal year from a 52 or 53-week year ending on the Sunday nearest the 
last day in December to coincide with a calendar year ending on December 31. 
In 1998, the Company's fiscal year was a 53-week year ending on January 3, 
1999 and the first fiscal quarter of 1998 was a 13-week period ending on 
March 29, 1998. For presentation purposes, the 1998 dates used in the 
condensed consolidated financial statements and notes refer to the fiscal 
month end.

     INVENTORIES

     Pharmaceutical inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using
the average cost method or, in the case of certain vaccine products, using the
last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method. Inventories consist of the following:

NOTE 1--THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

     INCOME TAXES

     The 1999 estimated annual tax provision is expected to be approximately 25%
of pretax income from continuing operations. The provision may be affected in
future periods by changes in management's estimates with respect to the
Company's deferred tax assets and other items affecting the overall tax rate.
Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was based on an
estimated annual effective tax rate on pretax income from continuing operations
of approximately 34%. The actual 1998 annual effective tax rate of 20% reflects
the deferred tax assets that were recognized during the second half of 1998
through a reduction in the valuation allowance associated with such assets.

     PER SHARE DATA

     Basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted-average number of 
common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based upon the 
weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares 
outstanding. Dilutive potential common shares result from (i) the assumed 
exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants, and equivalents, which are 
included under the treasury-stock method; and (ii) performance units to the 
extent that dilutive shares are assumed issuable.

     The following table sets forth the computation for basic and diluted
earnings per share for the three months ended March 31:

     Options to purchase 1,380,000 shares and 13,189,000 shares with exercise
prices greater than the average market prices of common stock were outstanding
during the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. These
options were excluded from the respective computations of diluted earnings per
share as their inclusion would be antidilutive.

     Also excluded from the computations of dilutive earnings per share were
12,026,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Company's
convertible subordinated debentures as the average conversion price was greater
than the average market price for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and
1998.

NOTE 2--DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

     On November 30, 1998, Chiron completed the sale of its IN VITRO 
diagnostics business to Bayer for $1,013.8 million in cash, subject to 
certain post-closing adjustments. The sale was completed under the terms of a 
Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Bayer Agreement"), dated as of September 17, 
1998, between Chiron and Bayer. In accordance with Accounting Principles 
Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations--Reporting the 
Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual 
and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions" ("APB 30"), Chiron 
Diagnostics is reported as a discontinued operation for

NOTE 2--DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


the three months ended March 31, 1998 in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations. Chiron has agreed to provide customary indemnities
under the terms of the Bayer Agreement.

     On December 29, 1997, Chiron completed the sale of all of the outstanding
capital stock of Chiron Vision to B&L for approximately $300.0 million in cash,
subject to certain post-closing adjustments. The sale was completed under the
terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "B&L Agreement"), dated as of October
21, 1997, between Chiron and B&L. Chiron Vision's cash and cash equivalents
totaling $2.7 million, certain Chiron Vision real estate assets (the "real
estate assets") with a carrying value of $25.1 million and Chiron Vision's
future noncancelable operating lease costs totaling $1.1 million were retained
by the Company upon the completion of the sale. The Company has
agreed to provide customary indemnities under the terms of the B&L Agreement.

     For a period of three years following the completion of the sale, Chiron
Vision has the right to use a portion of the real estate assets, which were
occupied at closing, on a rent-free basis. As of March 31, 1999 and December 31,
1998, the real estate assets, which represent all of the remaining net assets of
Chiron's discontinued operations, are recorded in the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets as "Other current assets." In the first quarter of
1998, the Company recorded an adjustment to record the real estate
assets at their estimated fair value, determined on the basis of independent
appraisals, less costs to sell. This adjustment was recorded as a reduction to
the "Gain on disposal of discontinued operations" in the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period ended March 31, 1998.

     In the first quarter of 1998, Chiron Diagnostics recognized total revenues
of $135.6 million. For the three months ended March 31, 1998, "Loss from
discontinued operations" and "Gain on disposal of discontinued operations" are
reported net of income tax (benefit) provision of ($1.1) million and $31.2 
million, respectively.

     For the three months ended March 31, 1998, basic and diluted income per
common share from discontinued operations were $0.27 and $0.26, respectively.

NOTE 3--RESTRUCTURING AND REORGANIZATION CHARGES

     In the first quarter of 1999, the Company recorded restructuring and
reorganization charges of $3.4 million primarily related to the continued
integration of its worldwide vaccine operations. These charges primarily
consisted of termination and other employee-related costs recognized in
connection with the elimination of 28 positions in the Company's Italian
manufacturing facility. Six of these positions had been eliminated as of March
31, 1999.

     In fiscal year 1998, the Company recorded restructuring and 
reorganization charges of $26.8 million, of which $7.5 million was recognized 
in the first quarter. These charges consisted primarily of termination and 
other employee-related expenses recognized in connection with the elimination 
of 400 positions in manufacturing, research and development, sales, 
marketing, and other administrative functions, and facility-related costs. As 
of March 31, 1999, 249 of these 400 employees had been terminated.

       At March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, the liabilities associated with
the Company's restructuring and reorganization charges were $18.0 million and
$23.8 million, respectively. These liabilities are expected to be substantially
settled within 12 months of accruing the related charges.

NOTE 4--AGREEMENT WITH HOECHST AG

     Effective July 1, 1996, Chiron purchased a 49% interest in the human 
vaccine business of Behringwerke AG, which subsequently merged into its 
parent company, Hoechst AG. The total acquisition price, which was paid in 
cash, was approximately $120.0 million, including costs directly related to 
the acquisition. Of the total acquisition price, approximately $97.0 million 
was allocated to various intangible assets such as goodwill, trademarks, and 
patents, and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over lives ranging 
from five to 20 years.

     From July 1, 1996 through March 31, 1998 (period of joint ownership),
Chiron and Hoechst AG operated the vaccine business as a joint venture under the
name Chiron Behring GmbH & Co. Chiron accounted for its 49% interest under the
equity method and recognized revenues of $2.4 million as a component of "Equity
in earnings of unconsolidated joint businesses" in the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998.

     In the second quarter of 1998, in an acquisition accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting, Chiron acquired the remaining 51% interest in
Chiron Behring from Hoechst AG. The purchase price of approximately $113.1
million, including acquisition costs, was allocated to the acquired assets and
liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair value on the date of
acquisition. In connection with the acquisition, liabilities assumed were as
follows:

     At the time of acquisition, Chiron expensed $1.6 million of purchased 
in-process technologies. Other purchased intangible assets of approximately 
$135.0 million, including goodwill, trademarks, patents, and customer list, 
are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of four to 17 years on 
a straight-line basis. Chiron Behring's operating results were included in 
Chiron's consolidated operating results beginning in the second quarter of 
1998.

NOTE 5--SEGMENT INFORMATION

     Chiron is organized based on the products and services that it offers. 
Under this organizational structure, the Company has the following three 
reportable segments: (i) biopharmaceuticals, (ii) vaccines, and (iii) blood 
testing. The biopharmaceuticals segment consists of products and services 
related to therapeutics, with an emphasis on oncology, serious infectious 
diseases, and cardiovascular diseases as well as the development and 
acquisition of technologies related to recombinant technology, gene therapy, 
small molecule therapeutics, and genomics. The vaccines segment consists 
principally of products and services related to adult and pediatric vaccines 
sold primarily in Germany, Italy, and certain other international markets. 
The blood testing segment consists primarily of Chiron's one-half interest in 
the pretax operating earnings of its joint business with Ortho-Clinical 
Diagnostics, Inc. The joint business sells a full line of tests required to 
screen blood for hepatitis viruses and retroviruses, and provides 
supplemental tests and microplate-based instrument systems to automate test 
performance and data collection. Certain revenues and expenses, particularly 
Novartis research and development funding, certain royalty revenues, and 
unallocated corporate expenses, are not viewed by management as belonging to 
any one reportable segment. As a result, these items have been aggregated 
into an "Other" segment, as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related 
Information" ("SFAS 131").

     The accounting policies of the Company's reportable segments are the same
as those described in Note 1--The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies. Chiron evaluates the performance of its segments based on each
segment's income (loss) from operations, excluding certain special items, such
as restructuring and reorganization charges, which are shown as reconciling
items in the table below. The following segment information excludes all
significant intersegment transactions as these transactions are eliminated for
management reporting purposes:

DATA", RESPECTIVELY, OF THE COMPANY'S ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR THE YEAR 
ENDED JANUARY 3, 1999.

     Chiron is a biotechnology company that participates in three global 
healthcare businesses: biopharmaceuticals, vaccines, and blood testing. The 
biopharmaceuticals segment consists of products and services related to 
therapeutics, with an emphasis on oncology, serious infectious diseases, and 
cardiovascular diseases as well as the development and acquisition of 
technologies related to recombinant technology, gene therapy, small molecule 
therapeutics, and genomics. The vaccines segment consists principally of 
adult and pediatric vaccines sold primarily in Germany, Italy, and certain 
other international markets. The blood testing segment primarily 
consists of Chiron's one-half interest in the pretax operating earnings of 
its joint business with Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc. ("Ortho"), a 
Johnson & Johnson company. The joint business sells a full line of tests 
required to screen blood for hepatitis viruses and retroviruses, and provides 
supplemental tests and microplate-based instrument systems to automate test 
performance and data collection.

      On December 29, 1997, Chiron completed the sale of its ophthalmics 
business ("Chiron Vision") to Bausch & Lomb Incorporated ("B&L") and on 
November 30, 1998, Chiron completed the sale of its IN VITRO diagnostics 
business ("Chiron Diagnostics") to Bayer Corporation ("Bayer"). The Company's 
condensed consolidated statements of operations reflect the after-tax results 
of Chiron Diagnostics and the gain on disposal of Chiron Vision as 
discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998.

     On March 31, 1998, in an acquisition accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting, Chiron acquired the remaining 51% interest in Chiron
Behring GmbH & Co ("Chiron Behring") from Hoechst AG. Beginning in the second
quarter of 1998, the results of Chiron Behring were consolidated with those of
the Company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES

     BIOPHARMACEUTICAL PRODUCT SALES Product sales from the 
biopharmaceuticals segment were $43.1 million and $50.3 million for the three 
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Product sales consisted 
principally of Proleukin-Registered Trademark- (aldesleukin, interleukin-2), 
Betaseron-Registered Trademark- (interferon beta-1b) and PDGF (recombinant 
human platelet-derived growth factor -rhPDGF-BB).

      PROLEUKIN-Registered Trademark- Chiron sells Proleukin-Registered 
Trademark- directly in the U.S. and certain international markets. Sales of 
Proleukin-Registered Trademark- were $25.9 million and $20.9 million for the 
three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The overall 
increase in sales is primarily due to continued volume growth in existing 
indications and higher prices. Also impacting 

                                       13
<PAGE>

the increase in Proleukin-Registered Trademark- product sales was the Food 
and Drug Administration's ("FDA's") approval of Proleukin-Registered 
Trademark- for the indication of metastatic melanoma during the first quarter 
of 1998. The Company continues to pursue additional indications related to 
human immunodeficiency virus ("HIV"), acute myelogenous leukemia, and HIV 
related non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The Company also anticipates further 
geographic expansion of Proleukin-Registered Trademark- into additional 
countries.

      BETASERON-Registered Trademark- Chiron manufactures 
Betaseron-Registered Trademark- for Berlex Laboratories, Inc. ("Berlex") and 
its parent company, Schering AG of Germany. Chiron earns a partial payment 
for Betaseron-Registered Trademark- upon shipment to Berlex and Schering AG 
and a subsequent additional payment upon sales by Berlex and Schering AG. 
Accordingly, Chiron's revenues from Betaseron-Registered Trademark- tend to 
fluctuate based upon the inventory management practices of Berlex and 
Schering AG. For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, revenues 
from Betaseron-Registered Trademark- remained fairly constant at $14.6 
million and $14.1 million, respectively.

     PDGF Chiron manufactures PDGF for Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical, Inc., a 
Johnson & Johnson ("J&J") company. PDGF is the active ingredient in 
Regranex-Registered Trademark-(becaplermin) Gel, a treatment for diabetic 
foot ulcers. Regranex-Registered Trademark- Gel was approved by the FDA in 
December 1997 and was launched commercially in early 1998. Sales of PDGF were 
$0.5 million and $13.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 
1998, respectively. As PDGF is the first product of its kind, the Company 
believes it will take time for the market to fully develop. In addition, 
Chiron's sales of PDGF will tend to fluctuate based upon the inventory 
management practices of J&J. Regranex-Registered Trademark- Gel was recently 
approved for use in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers in Canada and 
Europe. However, even with these approvals, Chiron's sales to date have 
largely filled J&J's initial inventory requirements for product launch, and 
as a result, no significant sales of PDGF to J&J are expected during 1999.

      VACCINE PRODUCT SALES Chiron sells pediatric and adult vaccines in 
Germany, Italy, other international markets, and in the U.S. Certain of the 
Company's vaccine products, particularly its flu vaccine, are seasonal and 
typically have higher sales in the third and fourth quarters of the year. For 
the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, vaccine product sales were 
$44.5 million and $14.5 million, respectively. The increase in sales in 1999 
as compared with 1998 is primarily due to Chiron's acquisition of the 
remaining 51% interest in, and consolidation of, Chiron Behring during the 
second quarter of 1998. Chiron Behring contributed $25.4 million to product 
sales during the first quarter of 1999. Also contributing to the increase in 
product sales was a $4.2 million sale of adult influenza vaccine to Argentina.

      EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT BUSINESSES For the three 
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, Chiron recognized equity in earnings of 
unconsolidated joint businesses of $18.1 million and $12.9 million, 
respectively. In 1999, equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint businesses 
consisted substantially of revenues generated by Chiron's joint business with 
Ortho. In 1998, equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint businesses also 
included Chiron's 49% share of the after-tax operating results of Chiron 
Behring.

      CHIRON-ORTHO JOINT BUSINESS For the three months ended March 31, 1999 
and 1998, Chiron's 50% share of the pretax operating earnings of the 
Chiron-Ortho joint business was $17.8 million and $11.4 million, 
respectively. At the end of each year, the joint business records an annual 
inventory adjustment. As Chiron recognizes revenues from the joint business 
on a lag basis, this adjustment is typically made during the first quarter of 
each year. In the first quarter of 1999, the annual inventory adjustment 
resulted in a charge of $0.7 million as compared with a $4.1 million charge 
recognized in the first quarter of 1998. Also contributing to the increase in 
earnings in 1999 as compared with 1998, were certain one-time contract 
termination fees, which were incurred during the first quarter of 1998.

      CHIRON BEHRING On July 1, 1996, Chiron acquired a 49% interest in 
Chiron Behring. On March 31, 1998, Chiron acquired the remaining 51% interest 
in Chiron Behring (refer to Note 4 of NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED 
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS). From July 1, 1996 through the first quarter of 1998, 
equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint businesses included Chiron's 49% 
share of the after-tax operating results of Chiron Behring. Chiron's share of 
earnings of the joint business, including amortization of intangibles, was 
$2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998. Beginning in the 
second quarter of 1998, Chiron Behring's results were consolidated with those 
of the Company.

      COLLABORATIVE AGREEMENT REVENUES Chiron recognizes collaborative 
agreement revenues for fees received for research services as they are 
performed and fees received upon achievement of specified milestones. For the 
three 

                                       14
<PAGE>

months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, Chiron recognized collaborative 
agreement revenues of $22.4 million and $24.4 million, respectively. The 
decrease is primarily due to a contractual decrease in payments received by 
the Company under a November 1996 consent agreement between Chiron, 
Novartis AG ("Novartis"), and the Federal Trade Commission related to the 
Herpes Simplex Virus-thymidine kinase (HSV-tk) gene in the field of gene 
therapy (for more information, refer to the Company's Annual Report on 
Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 1999).

      Chiron and Novartis entered into an agreement, which expires on 
December 31, 1999, under which Novartis agreed to provide research funding 
for certain projects (for more information, refer to the Company's Annual 
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 1999). Under this 
agreement, Chiron recognized collaborative agreement revenues of $16.0 
million during the first quarters of 1999 and 1998.

      Collaborative agreement revenues tend to fluctuate based on the amount 
of research services performed, the status of projects under collaboration, 
and the achievement of milestones. Due to the nature of the Company's 
collaborative agreement revenue, results in any one period are not 
necessarily indicative of results to be achieved in the future. The Company's 
ability to generate additional collaborative agreement revenues may depend, 
in part, on its ability to initiate and maintain relationships with potential 
and current collaborative partners. There can be no assurance that such 
relationships will be established or that current collaborative agreement 
revenues will not decline.

      ROYALTY AND LICENSE FEE REVENUES The Company receives royalties and 
license fees for products or technologies that are marketed, distributed, or 
used by third parties. For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, 
Chiron recognized royalty and license fee revenues of $32.4 million and $16.1 
million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to the Bayer 
Cross-License Agreement whereby Chiron agreed to grant to Chiron Diagnostics 
rights under certain Chiron patents, including rights under patents relating 
to HIV and hepatitis C virus. In exchange for these rights, Chiron 
Diagnostics paid to Chiron a license fee of $100.0 million, which is 
refundable in decreasing amounts over a period of three years. During the 
first quarter of 1999, Chiron recognized $10.0 million of license fees, which 
represents the portion of the $100.0 million payment that became 
nonrefundable during the period. Other items contributing to royalty and 
license fee revenues in the first quarter of 1999 were $7.1 million of 
royalties related to insulin products, $3.4 million of royalties earned by 
Chiron Behring, and $2.1 million of royalties related to human vaccine 
products. Partially offsetting these items was a decrease of $5.0 million 
related to a one-time license fee received from Pharmacia & Upjohn Company in 
January 1998 to research, develop, manufacture, and commercialize therapeutic 
products for the treatment of hepatitis C in humans.

     Royalty and license fee revenues may fluctuate based on the nature of 
the related agreements and the timing of receipt of license fees. Results in 
any one period are not necessarily indicative of results to be achieved in 
the future. In addition, the Company's ability to generate additional royalty 
and license fee revenues may depend, in part, on its ability to market and 
capitalize on its technologies. There can be no assurance that the Company 
will be able to do so or that future royalty and license fee revenues will 
not decline.

     OTHER REVENUES For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, 
Chiron recognized other revenues of $9.6 million and $10.7 million, 
respectively. Other revenues in the first quarter of 1999 included $5.0 
million of commission revenues generated by Chiron Behring, whose operations 
were consolidated with those of the Company beginning in the second quarter 
of 1998. These revenues consist of commissions received on sales of hepatitis 
B products and of immunoglobuline products. For the three months ended March 
31, 1999 and 1998, other revenues also included $2.6 million and $0.4 
million, respectively, of contract manufacturing revenues. These increases in 
other revenues were offset by a decrease of $9.2 million related to an 
arrangement which terminated in April 1998 where Chiron promoted 
Aredia-Registered Trademark- (pamidronate disodium for injection) on behalf 
of Novartis.

     The Company's other revenues may fluctuate due to the nature of the 
revenues recognized and the timing of events giving rise to these revenues. 
There can be no guarantee that the Company will be successful in obtaining 
additional revenues or that these revenues will not decline.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

      GROSS PROFIT Gross profit as a percentage of net product sales was 
52.6% and 59.4%, in the first quarter of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The 
decrease is primarily related to (i) an unfavorable mix of vaccine product 
sales, which beginning in the second quarter of 1998, includes low margin 
products that are in-licensed and sold by Chiron Behring; (ii) certain 
inventory-related charges incurred by the Company's Italian vaccine 
operations related to inventory obsolescence reserves and inventory 
write-offs; and (iii) an unfavorable mix of biopharmaceutical product sales, 
which includes fewer sales of the higher margin product, PDGF. These 
decreases were partially offset by (i) improvements in the gross margins 

                                       15
<PAGE>

related to Betaseron-Registered Trademark- due to a reduction in idle 
facility costs and certain manufacturing efficiencies resulting from 
increased production; and (ii) recent price increases on sales of 
Proleukin-Registered Trademark-.

     Also impacting the Company's gross profit margin during the first 
quarter of 1999 was the write-off of a portion of the Company's tick-borne 
encephalitis inventory that failed to satisfy manufacturing specifications 
for purity. The Company subsequently retested all remaining tick-borne 
encephalitis inventory and found it to meet specifications. The Company has 
since received approval from the relevant regulatory authority and is 
selling the product. The total charge that related to this issue was $3.1 
million.

     The Company's gross profit percentages may fluctuate significantly in 
future periods as the Company's product mix continues to evolve.

      RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 
1998, Chiron recognized research and development expenses of $69.1 million 
and $63.9 million, respectively. The Company's research and development 
expenses may fluctuate from period to period depending upon the stage of 
certain projects and the level of clinical trial-related activities. In 1999, 
the increase in research and development spending as compared with 1998 was 
due, in part, to the acquisition and consolidation of Chiron Behring, which 
contributed $2.8 million to research and development expenses during the 
first quarter of 1999. Also contributing to the increase in research and 
development expenses was the furtherance of the Company's clinical trials 
related to Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor (TFPI) and Fibroblast Growth 
Factor (FGF).

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE In the first quarters of 1999 and 
1998, Chiron recognized selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses 
of $40.5 million and $23.7 million, respectively. The increase in SG&A 
expenses in 1999 as compared with 1998 is primarily due to the acquisition 
and consolidation of Chiron Behring, which contributed $10.2 million to SG&A 
expenses in the first quarter of 1999. SG&A expenses also increased as a 
result of the Company's focus on developing and launching the nucleic acid 
testing segment of its blood testing business and to the worldwide 
implementation of its integrated information system in April 1999.

     OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES During the first quarters of 1999 and 1998, 
Chiron incurred net restructuring and reorganization charges of $3.4 million 
and $7.5 million, respectively, related to the integration of the Company's 
worldwide vaccine operations and the Company's ongoing rationalization of its 
U.S. business operations. The 1999 first-quarter charge primarily consisted 
of termination and other employee-related costs recognized in connection with 
the elimination of 28 positions in the Company's Italian manufacturing 
facility. Six of these positions had been eliminated as of March 31, 1999. In 
fiscal year 1998, the Company had recorded restructuring and reorganization 
charges of $26.8 million of which $7.5 million were recognized in the first 
quarter. Major components of these charges consisted primarily of 
facility-related exit costs and termination and other employee-related 
expenses in connection with the elimination of 400 positions. As of March 31, 
1999, 249 of these 400 employees had been terminated.

NON-OPERATING INCOME AND EXPENSE

     Other income, net, primarily consists of interest and investment income 
on the Company's cash and investment balances and other non-operating gains 
and losses. For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, Chiron 
recognized interest and investment income of $20.3 million and $6.4 million, 
respectively. The increase in interest and investment income in 1999 as 
compared with 1998 is primarily due to higher average cash and investment 
balances attributable to the net cash proceeds received from the sale of 
Chiron Diagnostics in November 1998. Interest expense remained fairly 
constant at $6.1 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended March 
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative 
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"), which is effective for all 
quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. SFAS 133 establishes 
accounting and reporting standards for 

                                       16
<PAGE>

derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in 
other contracts, and for hedging activities. In accordance with SFAS 133, an 
entity is required to recognize all derivatives as either assets or 
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those 
instruments at fair value. SFAS 133 requires that changes in the derivative's 
fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge 
accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows 
a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item 
in the income statement, and requires that a company formally document, 
designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge 
accounting. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that 
implementation of SFAS 133 will have on its results of operations and 
financial position and anticipates that it will implement SFAS 133 during the 
first fiscal quarter of 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Chiron's capital requirements have generally been funded from 
operations, cash and investments on hand, debt borrowings, issuance of common 
stock, and off-balance sheet financing. Chiron's cash and investments in 
marketable debt securities, which totaled $1.4 billion at March 31, 1999, are 
invested in a diversified portfolio of investment grade financial 
instruments, including money market instruments, corporate notes and bonds, 
government or government agency securities, and other debt securities. By 
policy, the amount of credit exposure to any one institution is limited; 
however, these investments are generally not collateralized and primarily 
mature within three years.

     SOURCES AND USES OF CASH Chiron had cash and cash equivalents of $69.1 
million and $177.6 million at March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. For the 
first quarter of 1999, net cash used in operating activities was $130.3 
million as compared with $0.6 million in 1998. In the first quarter of 1999, 
the Company paid $165.4 million in estimated taxes primarily related to the 
sale of the Company's IN VITRO diagnostics business. This use of cash was 
partially offset by net income of $23.7 million for the three months ended 
March 31, 1999.

     In the first quarter 1999, net cash used in investing activities 
consisted of purchases of investments in marketable debt securities of $701.2 
million, capital expenditures of $33.9 million, and other uses of cash of 
$18.6 million. Partially offsetting these uses of cash were proceeds from the 
sale and maturity of investments in marketable debt securities of $412.1 
million.

     In the first quarter of 1999, net cash provided by financing activities 
primarily consisted of $28.1 million from the issuance of common stock 
related to stock option exercises and $1.0 million related to short-term 
borrowings. This was partially offset by $0.9 million related to the 
repayment of certain notes payable and short-term leases, and $0.6 million 
related to the acquisition of treasury stock.

     The Company is currently evaluating a number of business development 
opportunities. To the extent that the Company is successful in reaching 
agreements with third parties, these transactions may involve the expenditure 
of a significant amount of the Company's current investment portfolio.

     BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS Under a revolving, committed, unsecured credit 
agreement with a major financial institution, Chiron can borrow up to $100.0 
million in the U.S. This credit facility is guaranteed by Novartis, provides 
various interest rate options, and matures in February 2003. There were no 
borrowings outstanding under this credit facility at March 31, 1999. The 
Company had an additional credit agreement, which expired unused in March 
1999. Chiron also has credit facilities outside the U.S. which allow for 
total borrowings of $63.1 million. Under these credit facilities, $20.6 
million of borrowings were outstanding at March 31, 1999.

     YEAR 2000 Chiron is dependent on a number of computer systems and 
applications to conduct its business. In the past, many computer programs 
were written using two digits rather than four to identify the relevant year. 
These programs may not be able to distinguish between 21st and 20th century 
dates (for example, "00" may be read as the year 1900 when the year 2000 is 
intended). This could result in significant system failures or 
miscalculations. Accordingly, the Company has developed a comprehensive 
risk-based plan designed to make its computer hardware and communication 
systems, software applications, and facilities and other non-information 
technology-related functions Year 2000 compliant. The plan covers three 
phases including (i) planning, (ii) assessment, and (iii) implementation. The 
Company has completed the planning and assessment phases and expects to 
complete the implementation phase by mid-1999. With regard to the Company's 
computer hardware and communication systems, Chiron has completed its 
technology refresh program which was developed in conjunction with 
International Business Machines, Inc. ("IBM") to update and standardize the

                                       17
<PAGE>

Company's computer hardware and communication systems. With regard to the 
Company's software applications, the Company has identified critical and 
non-critical software applications. Mission critical applications have been 
remediated. Non-critical applications are in progress and are targeted for 
completion prior to September 1999. The Company has completed testing and 
installation of an integrated information system that was implemented across 
the Company on April 5, 1999. With regard to the Company's facilities and 
other non-information technology-related functions, including research, 
manufacturing, and inventory management practices, the Company is on schedule 
and expects to have its facilities and other non-information 
technology-related functions Year 2000 compliant by mid-1999 for critical 
functions and September 1999 for non-critical functions, in all material 
respects.

     The Company is using both internal and external resources to prepare for 
the year 2000. Although the Company believes that it should be able to 
substantially complete the implementation of critical internal aspects of its 
Year 2000 plan prior to the commencement of the year 2000, even with 
substantial completion of internal remediation plans, the Company's 
customers, suppliers, and distributors also present risk of their own Year 
2000 compliance over which the Company has no control. The Company has 
initiated communications with its critical suppliers and other external 
relationships to determine the extent to which the Company may be vulnerable 
to such parties' failure to resolve their own Year 2000 issues. Where 
practicable, the Company is assessing and attempting to mitigate its risks 
with respect to the failure of these entities to be Year 2000 compliant. The 
effect, if any, on the Company's results of operations from the failure of 
such parties to be Year 2000 compliant cannot be reasonably estimated.

     The Company is also preparing to address any Year 2000 issues that do 
arise. The Company is implementing specific plans for each critical system to 
ensure that the necessary precautions are taken to prevent and/or address an 
unexpected system failure. Many of these contingency plans are already in 
place as they are based on existing plans that are required for the safe and 
proper operation of the Company's business, including its research and 
manufacturing facilities.

     The SEC has requested that companies disclose the most likely worst case 
scenario that could occur as a result of the Year 2000. The Company believes 
that its most likely worst case scenario would be delays in product shipments 
due to a complete or partial manufacturing shutdown. To address the 
manufacturing shutdown scenario, the Company plans, among other things, to 
increase its inventory and re-prioritize staff assignments, as needed, but 
does not believe that such a scenario is likely to occur.

     The Company may incur significant costs in identifying and resolving 
Year 2000 issues, including internal staffing costs as well as consulting and 
other expenses. In addition, in certain instances, the appropriate course of 
action includes replacing or upgrading systems or equipment at a substantial 
cost to the Company. Expenses associated with preparing for the year 2000 are 
not expected to exceed $5.5 million. The costs related to the technology 
refresh program and the integrated information system are not included in the 
above estimates as Year 2000 compliance is incidental to the operational 
benefits expected to be derived from these programs. As of March 31, 1999, 
costs incurred to date have been funded through operations and approximate 
$1.4 million. The Company anticipates that most of its Year 2000 costs will 
be incurred during the first three quarters of 1999. These costs are 
anticipated to be funded with cash on hand and cash generated through 
operations.

     EURO CONVERSION On January 1, 1999, eleven European Union member 
countries established fixed conversion rates between their existing 
currencies ("legacy currencies") and one common currency, the Euro. The Euro 
is currently traded on currency exchanges and can be used in business 
transactions. The Company believes that its financial systems are Euro-ready 
in all material respects. However, the Company is still in the process of 
evaluating the effect, if any, of the Euro on the Company's product pricing 
and gross profit percentages.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

     As a biotechnology company, Chiron is engaged in a rapidly evolving and 
often unpredictable business. The forward-looking statements contained in 
this Report and in other periodic reports, press releases and other 
statements issued by the Company from time to time reflect management's 
current beliefs and expectations concerning objectives, plans, strategies, 
future performance, and other future events. The following discussion 
highlights some of the factors, many of which are beyond the Company's 
control, which could cause actual results to differ.

                                       18
<PAGE>

PROMISING TECHNOLOGIES ULTIMATELY MAY NOT PROVE SUCCESSFUL

     The Company focuses its research and development activities on areas in 
which it has particular strengths, and on technologies that appear promising. 
These technologies often are on the "cutting edge" of modern science. As a 
result, the outcome of any research or development program is highly 
uncertain. Only a very small fraction of such programs ultimately result in 
commercial products or even product candidates. Product candidates that 
initially appear promising often fail to yield successful products. In many 
cases, preclinical or clinical studies will show that a product candidate is 
not efficacious (that is, it does not have the intended therapeutic or 
prophylactic effect), or that it raises safety concerns or has other side 
effects which outweigh the intended benefit. Success in preclinical or early 
clinical trials (which generally focus on safety issues) may not translate 
into success in large-scale clinical trials (which are designed to show 
efficacy), often for reasons that are not fully understood. And even after a 
product is approved and launched, general usage or post-marketing studies may 
identify safety or other previously unknown problems with the product which 
may result in regulatory approvals being suspended, limited to narrow 
indications, or revoked, or which otherwise prevent successful 
commercialization.

REGULATORY APPROVALS

     The Company is required to obtain and maintain regulatory approval in 
order to market most of its products. Generally, these approvals are on a 
product-by-product and country-by-country basis, and, in the case of 
therapeutic products, a separate approval is required for each therapeutic 
indication. See Item 1., "Business--Government Regulation" in the Company's 
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 1999. Product 
candidates that appear promising based on early, and even large-scale, 
clinical trials may not receive regulatory approval. The results of clinical 
trials often are susceptible to varying interpretations that may delay, limit 
or prevent approval or result in the need for post-marketing studies.

MANUFACTURING

     Most of the Company's products are biologics. Manufacturing biologic 
products is complex. Unlike chemical pharmaceuticals, a biologic product 
generally cannot be sufficiently characterized (in terms of its physical and 
chemical properties) to rely on assaying of the finished product alone to 
ensure that the product will perform in the intended manner. Accordingly, it 
is essential to be able to both validate and control the manufacturing 
process: that is, to show that the process works, and that the product is 
made strictly and consistently in compliance with that process. Slight 
deviations in the manufacturing process may result in unacceptable changes in 
the products which may result in lot failures. Manufacturing processes which 
are used to produce the (smaller) quantities of material needed for research 
and development purposes may not be successfully scaled up to allow 
production of commercial quantities at reasonable cost or at all. All of 
these difficulties are compounded when dealing with novel biologic products 
that require novel manufacturing processes. Accordingly, manufacturing is 
subject to extensive government regulation. Even minor changes in the 
manufacturing process require regulatory approval, which, in turn, may 
require further clinical studies.

PATENTS HELD BY THIRD PARTIES MAY DELAY OR PREVENT COMMERCIALIZATION

     Third parties, including competitors, have patents and patent 
applications in the U.S. and other significant markets that may be useful or 
necessary for the manufacture, use, or sale of certain of the Company's 
products and products in development. It is likely that third parties will 
obtain other such patents in the future. Certain of these patents may be 
sufficiently broad to prevent or delay Chiron from manufacturing or marketing 
products important to the Company's current and future business. The scope, 
validity, and enforceability of such patents, if granted, the extent to which 
Chiron may wish or need to obtain licenses to such patents, and the cost and 
availability of such licenses cannot be accurately predicted. If Chiron does 
not obtain such licenses, products may be withdrawn from the market or delays 
could be encountered in market introduction while an attempt is made to 
design around such patents. Alternatively, Chiron could find that the 
development, manufacture, or sale of such products is foreclosed. Chiron could 
also incur substantial costs in challenging the validity and scope of such 
patents.

PRODUCT ACCEPTANCE

     The Company may experience difficulties in launching new products, many 
of which are novel products based on 

                                       19
<PAGE>

technologies that are unfamiliar to the healthcare community. There can be no 
assurance that healthcare providers and patients will accept such products. 
In addition, government agencies as well as private organizations involved in 
healthcare from time to time publish guidelines or recommendations to 
healthcare providers and patients. Such guidelines or recommendations can be 
very influential, and may adversely affect the usage of the Company's 
products directly (for example, by recommending a decreased dosage of the 
Company's product in conjunction with a concomitant therapy) or indirectly 
(for example, by recommending a competitive product over the Company's 
product).

COMPETITION

     Chiron operates in a highly competitive environment, and the competition is
expected to increase. Competitors include large pharmaceutical, chemical and
blood testing companies, as well as biotechnology companies. Some of these
competitors, particularly large pharmaceutical and blood testing companies, have
greater resources than the Company. Accordingly, even if the Company is
successful in launching a product, it may find that a competitive product
dominates the market for any number of reasons, including the possibility that
the competitor may have launched its product first; the competitor may have
greater marketing capabilities; or the competitive product may have therapeutic
or other advantages. The technologies applied by the Company and its competitors
are rapidly evolving, and new developments frequently result in price
competition and product obsolescence.

CHIRON'S PATENTS MAY NOT PREVENT COMPETITION OR GENERATE REVENUES

     Chiron seeks to obtain patents on its inventions. Without the protection of
patents, competitors may be able to use the Company's inventions to manufacture
and market competing products without being required to undertake the lengthy
and expensive development efforts made by Chiron and without having to pay
royalties or otherwise compensate Chiron for the use of the invention.

     There can be no assurance that patents and patent applications owned or 
licensed to Chiron will provide substantial protection. Important legal 
questions remain to be resolved as to the extent and scope of available 
patent protection for biotechnology products and processes in the U.S. and 
other important markets. It is not known how many of the Company's pending 
patent applications will be granted, or the effective coverage of those that 
are granted. In the U.S. and other important markets, the issuance of a 
patent is neither conclusive as to its validity nor the enforceable scope 
of its claims. The Company has engaged in significant litigation to determine 
the scope and validity of certain of its patents and expects to continue to 
do so in the future.

     Even if the Company is successful in obtaining and defending patents, there
can be no assurance that these patents will provide substantial protection. The
length of time necessary to successfully resolve patent litigation may allow
infringers to gain significant market advantage. Third parties may be able to
design around the patents and develop competitive products that do not use the
inventions covered by the patents. Many countries, including certain countries
in Europe, have compulsory licensing laws under which a patent owner may be
compelled to grant licenses to third parties (for example, the third party's
product is needed to meet a threat to public health or safety in that country,
or the patent owner has failed to "work" the invention in that country, or the
third party has patented improvements) and most countries limit the
enforceability of patents against government agencies or government contractors.
In these countries, the patent owner may be limited to monetary relief and may
be unable to enjoin infringement, which could materially diminish the value of
the patent.

AVAILABILITY OF REIMBURSEMENT; GOVERNMENT AND OTHER PRESSURES ON PRICING

     In the U.S. and other significant markets, sales of the Company's products
may be affected by the availability of reimbursement from the government or
other third parties, such as insurance companies. It is difficult to predict the
reimbursement status of newly approved, novel biotechnology products, and
current reimbursement policies for existing products may change. In certain
foreign markets, governments have issued regulations relating to the pricing and
profitability of pharmaceutical companies. There have been proposals in the U.S.
(at both the federal and state level) to implement such controls. The growth of
managed care in the U.S. also has placed pressure on the pricing of healthcare
products. These pressures can be expected to continue.

                                       20
<PAGE>

COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH REFOCUSING AND EXPANDING THE BUSINESS

     The Company is refocusing its efforts on its core businesses and on 
improving operational efficiencies. In addition, management expects to grow 
the business in areas in which the Company can be most competitive, either 
through in-licensing, collaborations, or acquisitions of products or 
companies. In connection with these efforts, the Company may incur 
significant charges, costs, and expenses which could impact the Company's 
profitability, including impairment losses, restructuring charges, the 
write-off of in-process technology, transaction-related expenses, costs 
associated with integrating new businesses, and the cost of amortizing 
goodwill and other intangibles.

OTHER NEW PRODUCTS AND SOURCES OF REVENUE

     Many products in the Company's current pipeline are in relatively early
stages of research or development. The Company's ability to grow earnings in the
near- to medium-term may depend, in part, on its ability to initiate and
maintain other revenue generating relationships with third parties, such as
licenses to certain of the Company's technologies, and on its ability to
identify and successfully acquire rights to later-stage products from third
parties. There can be no assurance that such other sources of revenue will be
established.

INTEREST RATE AND FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS

     In 1998, the Company sold certain businesses for cash, including its IN 
VITRO diagnostics and ophthalmics businesses, and as a result has significant 
cash balances and short-term investments. The Company's financial results 
therefore are sensitive to interest rate fluctuations in the U.S. In 
addition, the Company sells products in many countries throughout the world, 
and its financial results could be significantly affected by fluctuations in 
foreign currency exchange rates or by weak economic conditions in foreign 
markets.

COLLABORATION PARTNERS

     An important part of the Company's business strategy depends upon 
collaborations with third parties, including research collaborations and 
joint efforts to develop and commercialize new products. As circumstances 
change, the Company and its corporate partners may develop conflicting 
priorities or other conflicts of interest. The Company may experience 
significant delays and incur significant expenses in resolving these 
conflicts and may not be able to resolve these matters on acceptable terms. 
Even without conflicts of interest, the parties may differ in their views as 
to how best to realize the value associated with a current product or a 
product in development. In some cases, the corporate partner may have 
responsibility for formulating and implementing key strategic or operational 
plans. Decisions by corporate partners on key clinical, regulatory, marketing 
(including pricing), inventory management, and other issues may prevent 
successful commercialization of the product or otherwise impact the Company's 
profitability.

STOCK PRICE VOLATILITY

     The price of the Company's stock, like that of other biotechnology
companies, is subject to significant volatility. Any number of events, both
internal and external to the Company, may affect the stock price. These include,
without limitation, results of clinical trials conducted by the Company or by
its competitors; announcements by the Company or its competitors regarding
product development efforts, including the status of regulatory approval
applications; the outcome of legal proceedings, including claims filed by the
Company against third parties to enforce its patents and claims filed by third
parties against the Company relating to patents held by the third parties; the
launch of competing products; the resolution of (or failure to resolve) disputes
with collaboration partners; corporate restructuring by the Company; licensing
activities by the Company; and the acquisition or sale by the Company of
products, products in development, or businesses.

     In connection with its research and development collaborations, from time
to time the Company invests in equity securities of its corporate partners. The
price of these securities also is subject to significant volatility and may be
affected by, among other things, the types of events that affect the Company's
stock. Changes in the market price of these securities may impact the Company's
profitability.

TAX

     The Company is taxable principally in the U.S., Germany, Italy, and The 
Netherlands. All of these jurisdictions have in the past and may in the 
future make changes to their corporate tax rates and other tax laws, which 
could increase the Company's tax provision in the future. The Company has 
negotiated a number of rulings regarding income and other taxes that are 
subject to periodic review and renewal. If such rulings are not renewed or 
are substantially modified, taxes payable in particular jurisdictions could 
increase. While the Company believes that all material tax liabilities are 
properly reflected in its balance sheet, the Company is presently under audit 
in several jurisdictions, and there can be no assurance that Chiron will 
prevail in all cases in the event the taxing authorities disagree with its 
interpretations of the tax law. In addition, the Company has assumed 
liabilities for all income taxes incurred prior to the sales of its former 
subsidiaries, Chiron Vision Corporation (subject to certain limitations) and 
Chiron Diagnostics Corporation. Future levels of research and development 
spending, capital investment, and export sales will impact the Company's 
entitlement to related tax credits and benefits which have the effect of 
lowering its effective tax rate.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT The Company's cash flow and earnings are subject to
fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates,
and fair value of equity securities held. The Company attempts to limit its
exposure to some or all of these market risks through the use of various
financial instruments. There were no significant changes in the Company's market
risk exposures during the first quarter of 1999. For further discussion of the
Company's market risk exposures, refer to Part II, Item 7A., "Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in Chiron's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 1999.

                                     PART II

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     The Company is party to certain lawsuits and legal proceedings, which 
are described in Part I, Item 3., "Legal Proceedings," of the Company's 
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 1999. The following 
is a description of material developments during the period covered by this 
Quarterly Report and should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report.

CONNAUGHT LABORATORIES, LIMITED

     Chiron is involved in litigation in Italy, Germany, and The Netherlands 
with Connaught Laboratories, Limited ("Connaught") relating to 
TriAcelluvax-TM-, the Company's diphtheria/tetanus/acellular pertussis 
vaccine.

     The Company does not sell TriAcelluvax-TM- in Germany. However, in July 
1997, Connaught filed suit against Chiron Behring and Chiron S.p.A. in the 
District Court in Dusseldorf, Germany, asserting imminent infringement of 
Connaught's European Patent 0 322 115 (the "'115 patent"). The '115 patent, 
which contains claims relating to pertussis toxin mutants was upheld in 
November 1998 by the EPO Opposition Division. In the German action, Connaught 
sought damages and an order enjoining Chiron S.p.A. and Chiron Behring from 
the manufacture and sale of TriAcelluvax-TM- in both Germany and Italy. A 
trial on this matter took place in August 1998. In April, 1999, the German 
court rejected Connaught's request for an order enjoining Chiron S.p.A. from 
activities in Italy but entered an injunction against the Chiron defendants 
prohibiting future sales in Germany. That injunction becomes effective upon 
Connaught's posting of a bond. Connaught's damages claims were denied.

F. HOFFMANN-LAROCHE AG

     Chiron is involved in certain litigation in the United States, The 
Netherlands, Japan, Germany, and other countries with F. Hoffmann-LaRoche AG 
and several of its affiliated companies concerning infringement and/or 
validity of certain patents related to HCV technology.

     In January 1998, Chiron initiated an action against F. Hoffmann-LaRoche AG
and several of its affiliated companies (collectively, "Roche") in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California. The Company
asserts 

                                       22
<PAGE>

that Roche's manufacture and sale of Amplicor-Registered Trademark- HCV Test 
and Amplicor-Registered Trademark- HCV Monitor Test constitutes infringement 
of Chiron's U.S. Patent Nos. 5,712,088 (the "'088 patent") and 5,714,596 (the 
"'596 patent"). The action seeks damages, injunctive relief, and a 
declaratory judgment that Chiron is the sole and exclusive owner of its HCV 
technology. Roche filed a counterclaim requesting a declaratory judgment of 
non-infringement and invalidity and also alleging infringement of U.S. Patent 
No. 5,580,718 (the "'718 patent"), owned by Roche, which allegedly relates to 
nucleic acid-based assays for the detection of HCV. Roche's counterclaim of 
infringement seeks damages and injunctive relief. Chiron is defending on the 
basis of invalidity and non-infringement of the '718 patent and also seeks a 
declaration of invalidity of U.S. Patent No. 5,527,669 (the "'669 patent"), a 
related patent also owned by Roche. Roche asserts that Chiron is barred from 
interfering with Roche's use of polymerase chain reaction ("PCR") to detect 
HCV by virtue of Chiron's status as successor-in-interest to Cetus 
Corporation, which sold its PCR business to Roche in 1991. A hearing on the 
parties' cross-motions for summary judgment on this issue is scheduled for 
May 28, 1999.

     In January 1997, Chiron, together with Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, Inc. 
filed suit against F. Hoffmann-LaRoche AG ("Roche Germany") in the Regional 
Court, 4th Civil Division, Dusseldorf, Germany, for infringement of HCV 
immunoassay technology under Chiron's European Patent 0 318 216 (the "'216 
patent"). The suit sought an injunction preventing further manufacture or 
sale of infringing HCV immunoassay kits by Roche Germany. On April 29, 1999, 
the Court issued a decision granting Chiron's application for injunctive 
relief. That order becomes effective only upon posting of a bond and is 
subject to appeal.

     Chiron also filed a suit against Roche in Dusseldorf, Germany, for 
infringement of Chiron's European Patent 0 181 150 relating to HIV 
probes technology. The suit seeks injunctive relief and damages. That matter 
has been set for trial on February 1, 2000.

     It is not known when nor on what bases these matters will be concluded.

ORTHO-CLINICAL DIAGNOSTICS, INC.

     On February 17, 1998, Chiron filed a lawsuit against Ortho-Clinical 
Diagnostics, Inc. ("Ortho") in the United States District Court for the 
Northern District of California. The suit sought to compel arbitration of 
certain issues relating to the conduct of the parties' joint business. 
Chiron's motion to compel arbitration was granted by the Court in December 
1998. Ortho appealed that order to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and 
then refused Chiron's demand for arbitration in accordance with the order. 
Therefore, on March 31, 1999, Chiron filed a second petition in the United 
States District Court for the Northern District of California to compel 
arbitration. It is not known when nor on what bases these matters will be 
concluded.

the purposes of this Agreement as determined by the parties.

               (b)  Subject to paragraph (c) below, if by the end of any
calendar year (a "Prior Year"), the Supervisory Board fails to agree on a Plan
and a Budget for the next succeeding calendar year (the "New Year"), Ortho,
subject to the over-all limitation on amounts which may be charged as Chiron
Operating Expenses and Ortho Operating Expenses as set forth below, and to
Chiron's right to charge sums expended

on research and development as set forth in subsection (ii) below, shall in its
sole discretion determine the Plan and Budget for the New Year, the allocation
of Operating Expenses to specific Budget categories, and any alternative
assignment of responsibilities to the parties for the performance of specific
functions contemplated by the Plan; provided, that Chiron shall in any event be
responsible for research and for manufacturing Antigens and Antibodies.  In any
such year, the Budget for Operating Expenses determined by Ortho for the New
Year shall not exceed the following:

                    (i)  Total Operating Expenses for the New Year shall not
exceed an amount (the "Expense Budget") equal to  *  of Net Sales for the Prior
Year.  In the event that the Supervisory Board does not approve a Budget for
calendar year 1990, for purposes of this subsection (i) Net Sales for the Prior
Year shall be deemed to be  *

                    (ii)  Chiron Operating Expenses for research and development
for the New Year shall not exceed  *  of the Expense Budget and, notwithstanding
any lesser amount budgeted by Ortho, (A) subject to paragraph (c) below, in
calendar years 1990, 1991, and 1992, and in any year in which Net Abbott
Immunodiagnostic Payments are less than  *  or Presumed Abbott Total Profits are
less than  *  , or Chiron can demonstrate with creditable evidence that the
foregoing cannot reasonably be expected to exceed such amounts, Chiron, in its
sole discretion, may charge as Chiron Operating Expense for research and
development up to an amount equal to  *  of the Expense Budget, and (B) in any
other year, in it sole discretion, Chiron may charge as Chiron Operating Expense
for research and development up to an amount equal to  *  of Abbott
Immunodiagnostic Payments for the Prior Year.  Subject to the foregoing,

Chiron shall in good faith endeavor to spend the amount budgeted by Ortho (plus
or minus  *  of such amount) for Chiron Operating Expenses for research and
development.

                    (iii)  Ortho Operating Expenses for the New Year shall not
exceed  *  of the Expense Budget.

               (c)  If, by the end of November in any year of operating under 
a prescribed Budget of the type set forth in paragraph (b) above, the 
Supervisory Board again fails to agree on a Plan and a Budget for the next 
succeeding calendar year, and either (i) the next succeeding year is calendar 
year 1991 or 1992, or (ii) the next succeeding year is calendar year 1993 or 
later, and Net Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments did not exceed  *  or 
Presumed Abbott Total Profits did not exceed  *  in the immediately preceding 
four calendar quarters, then the Plan and Budget for such succeeding calendar 
year shall be determined by a neutral third party as set forth in paragraph 
(d) below.

               (d)  In order to effectuate the purposes of paragraph (c) 
above, in any year in which the parties are operating under a prescribed 
budget in accordance with paragraph (b) above, the parties shall, no later 
than June 30 of that year, identify and retain an independent third party to 
serve as the neutral, if required, for establishing the Budget for the 
following year.  If the parties have been unable to agree upon and retain 
such a neutral by June 30, the neutral shall be selected by Arthur Andersen & 
Co., unless either party or Johnson & Johnson employs or has employed such 
accounting firm on a regular basis, in which case Arthur Andersen & Co. shall 
designate an independent certified public accounting firm to select the 
neutral.

<PAGE>

               (e)  If, in accordance with paragraph (c) above, the Plan and
Budget for a calendar year is to be determined by a neutral, the neutral shall
establish such Plan and Budget no later than January 15 of that year; provided,
that if for any reason the Plan and Budget has not been established by such
date, the parties shall operate for one additional Calendar Quarter under a Plan
and Budget determined in the manner set forth in paragraph (b) above.  The
neutral shall establish the Plan and Budget by reference to the objectives of
the parties hereunder as set forth in Section 2.1 above and by reference to the
proposals, if any, submitted by each of the parties.

               (f)  Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent either party from
incurring any expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby;
provided, that neither party may charge any such expenses as Chiron Expenses or
Ortho Expenses in accordance with Section 8.1 of this Agreement unless (i) with
respect to Chiron Operating Expenses and Ortho Operating Expenses, the same
shall have been approved by the Supervisory Board through an effective Budget
and Plan or as otherwise provided in Section 2.4(b) and (c) above, and (ii) with
respect to all other Chiron Expenses and Ortho Expenses, the same shall be
reasonable in relation to the volume of Product sold and in the light of the
purposes of this Agreement.

          2.5  SUPERVISORY BOARD ACTIONS.  Actions to be taken by the
Supervisory Board pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be taken only
following the affirmative vote of a majority of the entire Supervisory Board.

          2.6  OBLIGATIONS OF PARTIES.

               (a)  Chiron and Ortho shall provide the Supervisory Board with
reasonable access during regular business hours to all records and documents
which it may reasonably require in order to perform its obligations hereunder;
provided that if


                                         22.
<PAGE>

such records and documents are under a bona fide obligation of confidentiality
to a third party other than an Affiliate, then Chiron or Ortho, as the case may
be, may withhold access thereto to the extent necessary to satisfy such
obligation.

               (b)  Each party will make reasonable reports to the other party
and to the Supervisory Board with respect to its functions and tasks provided
for in this Agreement or otherwise assigned to it in accordance with Section 2.4
above.

               (c)  As to any Approved Budget, the parties shall in good faith
endeavor to spend up to the limits provided therein.  As to any Budget other
than an Approved Budget, and subject to Section 2.4(b)(ii) above, Chiron shall
in good faith endeavor to spend the amount budgeted (plus or minus  *  , for
Chiron Operating Expenses for research and development.  The parties recognize
however, that business conditions may necessitate the expenditure of lesser
amounts.  The parties shall notify each other of any anticipated material under
expenditures.

          2.7  LIMITATIONS OF POWERS OF THE SUPERVISORY BOARD.  The Supervisory
Board shall only have such powers as are delegated to it hereunder.

          2.8  REVISED PROJECTIONS.

               (a)  The parties acknowledge that from time to time it may be
desirable to vary an Approved Budget in view of a projected Gross Profit for the
year which will result in increasing the Final Profit contemplated in the
Approved Budget.  In order to effect the purpose of this Section 2.8, each party
shall notify the Supervisory Board and the other party promptly of any changes
in projected Gross Profit.  Such notice shall reflect the good faith projections
of such party and shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for the revised
projections, including (i) the effect on

projected Gross Profit of actual Net Sales to date and (ii) the actual Gross
Profit achieved in the preceding calendar quarter annualized.

               (b)  If in any calendar year projected Gross Profit exceeds the
budgeted Gross Profit, each party, acting in good faith, may increase the
maximum amount of Chiron Operating Expenses and Ortho Operating Expenses, as the
case may be, in excess of those provided in the Approved Budget in an amount
equal to the GREATER of:

                    (i)   the amount, if any, approved by the Supervisory
Board, or

                    (ii)  in the absence of any such approval by the
Supervisory Board, by the amount of such party's respective allocable share of 
*  of the difference between most recent projected Gross Profits and budgeted
Gross Profits; provided, that neither party may charge any such additional
expenses as additional Chiron Operating Expenses or Ortho Operating Expenses, as
the case may be, to the extent such expenses exceed such party's allocable share
of the amount by which actual Operating Profits (disregarding the affects of any
Unforeseen Expenses) exceed the budgeted Operating Profit. Each party's
allocable share of such amount shall equal the ratio of its respective budgeted
Operating Expenses to budgeted Total Operating Expenses. By way of example, if
an Approved Budget provides as follows:

                                  NEW TECHNOLOGIES


          3.1  NOTIFICATION. Subject to bona fide confidentiality and other
obligations to third parties, other than their respective Affiliates, each party
agrees to use reasonable efforts to notify the other promptly as it becomes
aware of competitive or complementary technology and developments pertaining to
the development or manufacture of Antigens, Antibodies or Products and related
test configurations and related assay systems and technology related to
instrument or other diagnostic read-out systems. Subject to the approval of the
Supervisory Board each party agrees to pursue and attempt to acquire if not
already acquired, (and will use its best efforts to obtain a right to sublicense
to the other party and to Abbott), from third parties such rights to 
Immunoassay technology and/or patents or both as either (a) is or becomes
necessary to permit (i) Chiron to develop and manufacture Antigens and
Antibodies, (ii) such Antigens and Antibodies to be incorporated into Products
or (iii) Ortho to make, use and sell Products or (b) represents a substantial
improvement in the performance characteristics of Antigens, Antibodies or
Products, but including in either case, technology related to instrument or
other diagnostic reading systems. Nothing in this

Section 3.1 shall preclude either party from acquiring Immunoassay technology or
patents or both and charging costs incurred in connection therewith as Chiron
Expenses or Ortho Expenses; provided, however, that without the prior approval
of the Supervisory Board (or that of Ortho acting in its sole discretion under
Subsection 2.4(b)(iii) or any neutral acting under Section 2.4), any costs
incurred in connection therewith shall not be charged as Chiron Expenses or
Ortho Expenses, and provided further, the party acquiring any such technology
shall promptly notify the other party of such acquisition.

                                    ARTICLE IV

                           RIGHTS IN PATENTS AND KNOW-HOW


          4.1  Subject to the rights granted herein, with respect to Patents and
Know-How:

               (a)  Each party shall own the entire right, title and interest in
and to all Patents and Know-How invented solely by it; and

               (b)  Any Patent or Know-How invented jointly by the parties shall
be jointly owned by the parties.

          4.2  Each party (the "filing party") shall at its discretion, file,
prosecute, maintain and defend against opposition proceedings the Patents it
owns, covering inventions and discoveries arising in connection with the
Know-How it owns in such countries as the filing party shall determine. During
the term of this Agreement, the filing party shall, at the reasonable request of
the other party, file for such additional patents with respect to the Know-How
owned by the filing party in such additional countries as the 

                                         26.
<PAGE>

other party reasonably deems necessary to protect its licensed rights under this
Agreement.

          The filing party shall keep the other party apprised of the status of
each Patent and shall give reasonable consideration to any suggestions or
recommendations of the other party concerning the preparation, filing,
prosecution, maintenance and defense thereof. If, during the term of this
Agreement, the filing party intends to allow any Patent to lapse or become
abandoned without having first filed a substitute, the filing party shall,
whenever practicable, notify the other party of such intention at least sixty
(60) days prior to the date upon which such Patent shall lapse or become
abandoned, and the other party shall thereupon have the right, but not the
obligation, to assume responsibility for the prosecution, maintenance and
defense thereof.

          4.3  No party makes any warranty with respect to the validity,
perfection or dominance of any patent or other proprietary right included in its
Know-How as Patents or with respect to the absence of rights in third parties
which may be infringed by the manufacture or sale of any product.

          4.4  Each party agrees to bring to the attention of the other party
any patent or patent application it discovers, or has discovered, and which
relates to the subject matter of this Agreement, and to cooperate with each
other so that each party can determine whether valid rights of a third party may
be infringed.

                                      LICENSE


          5.1  CHIRON KNOW-HOW AND PATENTS. During the term of this Agreement,
Chiron hereby grants to Ortho an exclusive worldwide license, without the right
to

                                        27.
<PAGE>

sublicense except to its Principal Affiliates, and subject to the restrictions
contained herein and to the existing agreements identified in Exhibit B attached
hereto, to the Chiron Know-How and any Chiron Patents to make, have made, use
and sell Products within the Field of Use, and to the degree necessary, any
further license necessary to make the warranties made by Chiron and Ortho in the
Abbott Immunodiagnostics Agreement true and complete in all respects.

          5.2  ORTHO GRANT TO CHIRON. During the term of this Agreement, Ortho
hereby grants to Chiron and its Affiliates a non-exclusive,  *  license, without
the right to sublicense, throughout the world to use all Ortho Know-How and
Ortho Patents for performing Chiron's research, manufacturing and other
obligations to Ortho under this Agreement and Chiron's obligations under the 
Abbott Immunodiagnostics Agreement and for no other purpose, provided, however,
that subject to the confidentiality, but not the use, restrictions of Article
XI, Chiron shall have the right to use clinical data relating to the Antigens
and Antibodies for internal purposes, including research purposes and for the 
development of improved Antigens, Antibodies and technologies for the
manufacture thereof.

                         SUPPLY OF ANTIGENS AND ANTIBODIES


          6.1  SUPPLY. Chiron, within the limitations contained in this Article,
shall supply Ortho with such quantities of Raw Material manufactured under GMP
conditions as Ortho may require for manufacture and sale of Products. Ortho
agrees during the term of this Agreement to obtain solely from Chiron all Raw
Material that Ortho requires. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Ortho need not
obtain from Chiron Raw

Material identified in Exhibit F hereto. Chiron agrees during the term of this
Agreement to supply Raw Material solely to Ortho for use within the Field of
Use. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chiron may also supply Raw Material to any
third parties (1) listed in Exhibit B for the purposes listed therein; (2) who
are subject to a duty permitting their use thereof only for research purposes
and not for commercialization of the results of such research by Chiron or any
third party; (3) for all uses outside the Field of Use, but only if such third
party is under an obligation not to use such Raw Material within the Field of
Use and, with respect to any such use, and also as to (2) above, Chiron uses
reasonable efforts to abate such use and, as to any such agreements entered into
after the date hereof, subject to applicable law, Chiron will obtain and attempt
to enforce the contractual right to terminate any such supply in the event of
material breach of such obligation by such third party; (4) if and to the
extent approved in writing by Ortho; or (5) to Abbott under the Abbott
Immunodiagnostics Agreement.

          6.2  SPECIFICATIONS. For each Raw Material, Chiron shall propose, in
writing, reasonable initial release specifications. Upon proposing such initial
release specifications, Chiron shall be obligated to meet Ortho's requirements
of such Raw Material complying with such initial release specifications. After
delivery of a Raw Material by Chiron, Ortho and Chiron shall agree, in writing,
on acceptance criteria and final release specifications for the Raw Material
based on actual testing of delivered Raw Material, which together shall comprise
the Raw Material specifications (the "Specifications"). Until such agreement is
reached, the initial release specifications proposed by Chiron shall be the
Specifications for the Raw Material.

                                        29.
<PAGE>

          6.3  QUANTITY.

               (a)  For all Products intended for commercial sale, Ortho shall
submit a requirements forecast for the relevant Raw Material for the upcoming
year. The requirements forecast shall be updated each quarter and extended one
quarter so as to provide a continuous forecast for a one-year period. At the
latest, one hundred twenty (120) days prior to a scheduled delivery date, Ortho
will place its firm quantity orders for such scheduled delivery. 

               (b)  If Ortho shall request delivery of the Raw Material in
amounts that exceed  * , of the initially forecasted quarterly requirements,
Chiron shall use its best efforts to manufacture and supply such additional
amounts. If Chiron is unable to supply the additional amount of Raw Material
within sixty (60) days after the requested delivery date, then Ortho may obtain
such additional amounts of Raw Material from third parties pursuant to Section
7.2(a) hereof; provided, however, that failure by Chiron to deliver such
additional amounts of Raw Material shall not constitute a default and shall not
entitle Ortho to have the second sourcing rights described in Section 7.2(b) or
to have access to the escrowed manufacturing process described in Section 7.3
hereof.

          6.4  DELIVERY TERMS. All deliveries to Ortho of Raw Material by Chiron
hereunder shall be F.O.B. at Chiron's plant in Emeryville, California, or other
Chiron designated place of delivery within the United States. Title to, and risk
of loss or damage of, any shipment of Raw Material shall pass to Ortho upon
acceptance of delivery at Chiron's facility. Costs associated with risk of loss
or damage of any shipment and the actual cost of freight, insurance, packaging
and any custom duties and

                                        30.
<PAGE>


taxes incurred by either party and its Affiliates with respect to the Raw
Materials or Products shall be Chiron Expenses or Ortho Expenses, as the case
may be.

          6.5  REJECTION OF RAW MATERIAL.

               (a)  If Ortho wishes to reject any delivery of Raw Material as
not conforming to the Specifications determined in accordance with Section 6.2,
Ortho must notify Chiron within thirty (30) days after receipt of delivery of
any shipment of non-conforming Raw Material; if the Specifications for such Raw
Material call for testing at a later date, then Ortho must notify Chiron within
ten (10) days of such later date and must include in such notification a report
of analysis of the allegedly non-conforming Raw Material determined in
accordance with the methods set forth in the Specifications. Chiron shall notify
Ortho within thirty (30) days after receipt of such report whether it accepts
Ortho's claim.

          If Chiron disagrees with Ortho's determination of the alleged
non-conformity, then an independent laboratory, mutually agreed upon by the
parties, shall analyze a sample, to be furnished by Ortho, of the identical
batch of allegedly non-conforming Raw Material delivered to Ortho, and both
parties shall be bound by such laboratory's results of such analysis. If Ortho
shall not have an identical batch for analysis, then Chiron shall provide a
sample from the shipment for testing.

          If Chiron or the independent laboratory confirms the delivery's
non-conformity, Chiron shall replace the non-conforming Raw Material with
conforming Raw Material within forty-five (45) days after the date of Chiron's
notification to Ortho of its acceptance of Ortho's claim of non-conformity or
its receipt of the report of the independent laboratory confirming the
non-conformity. The replacement of the Raw Material by Chiron pursuant to this
Article shall represent the sole remedy of Ortho against

                                         31
<PAGE>

Chiron, its Affiliates and licensees for non-conforming Raw Material, except
that failure to so replace non-conforming Raw Material may, at Ortho's
discretion, constitute a Supply Shortfall under Section 7.2.

               (b)  Unless Chiron requests the return to it of a non-conforming
batch of Raw Material, Ortho promptly shall destroy the entire batch of
non-conforming Raw Material included in the delivery and shall provide Chiron
with written certification of such destruction. Upon receipt of Chiron's request
for return of non-conforming Raw Material, Ortho promptly shall dispatch to
Chiron the entire remaining batch of Raw Material contained in the delivery.

          6.6  GMP CONDITIONS.

               (a)  Chiron shall manufacture Raw Material for use in clinical
testing and for use in Products for commercial sale under FDA Good Manufacturing
Practices pursuant to the Criteria for Contractual Agreements (attached as
Exhibit C hereto) or pursuant to a facilities license issued to Chiron by the
FDA.

               (b)  In order to determine and ensure compliance with FDA and 
Quality Assurance standards, Chiron shall upon reasonable advance notice 
permit authorized representatives of the FDA or Ortho to audit Chiron's 
manufacturing process for Raw Material and Chiron shall promptly act upon 
reasonable suggestions to correct deficiencies discovered by such audit, if 
any. Despite this right of Ortho to audit Chiron's manufacturing process for 
Raw Material, the compliance of Chiron with Good Manufacturing Practices 
(GMP) and of Raw Material with specifications shall be the sole 
responsibility of Chiron. Raw Material not manufactured under GMP standards 
shall be deemed non-conforming.

                  LIMITATIONS ON SUPPLY OF ANTIGENS AND ANTIBODIES


          7.1  SUPPLY OF RAW MATERIAL. Chiron shall use its best efforts to
supply Ortho with quantities of Raw Material ordered by Ortho pursuant to
Article VI hereof, but will not be responsible for any direct, indirect,
consequential, punitive or other damages resulting from its inability to
manufacture or supply requested quantities of conforming Raw Material. If Chiron
shall fail to deliver requested quantities of Raw Material, the sole remedy of
Ortho shall be replacement under Section 6.5 or second sourcing and
manufacturing rights under Sections 7.2 and 7.3.

          7.2  CHIRON BREACH OF DELIVERY OBLIGATION.

               (a)  Subject to the terms of Article VI and notwithstanding
Section 13.7 hereof, if Chiron fails in any material respect to supply to Ortho,
within the periods specified below following the scheduled delivery date, Raw
Material ordered by Ortho pursuant to Article VI for use in Products for
commercial sale in sufficient quantity or in such quality as contained in the
applicable Specifications (a "Supply Shortfall"), Ortho shall give Chiron
written notice of any alleged Supply Shortfall and Ortho shall have the right to
manufacture or acquire the Raw Material involved from an alternate or second
source and the right to make or have made such Raw Material as necessary to
remedy such Supply Shortfall, following the notice and cure periods and pursuant
to the terms provided in paragraph (b) below. (Chiron shall keep Ortho
reasonably advised of its progress in curing any Supply Shortfall and will
notify Ortho as early as reasonably possible if it will be unable to cure a
Supply Shortfall within the respective expiration dates provided in clauses
7.2(b).)

                                        33.

<PAGE>

               (b)  If Chiron shall have been unable to substantially cure a 
Supply Shortfall within forty-five (45) days following receipt by it of 
written notice thereof by delivering or arranging for the delivery to Ortho 
of conforming Raw Material in sufficient commercial quantities to meet 
scheduled forecasts, then Chiron hereby grants to Ortho a non-exclusive, 
revocable (as herein provided) license to Chiron Know-How, Chiron Patents, 
and to the escrow manufacturing process of Section 7.3 to make or have made 
Raw Material for use in or sale of Products in the Field of Use. This right 
and license shall be terminable by Chiron when and to the extent Chiron is 
ready, willing and able to resume supply of the Raw Material involved to 
Ortho and its Affiliates and such supplies meet the applicable 
Specifications. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right and license granted 
to Ortho shall not be terminable and Ortho may continue to manufacture or to 
purchase Raw Material from a second source for the longer of (a) the 
remainder of any fixed term alternate sourcing supply agreement or (b) the 
period ending when Chiron has demonstrated its ability to fill Ortho's orders 
for conforming Raw Material for one year after the latest Supply Shortfall 
with respect thereto. When negotiating second source contracts, Ortho will 
use its reasonable efforts subject to sound business judgment to protect 
Chiron's interest in recovering the exclusive right to manufacture Raw 
Material by limiting the duration of such contracts and the minimum quantity 
to be supplied thereunder. All costs of acquiring Raw Material from an 
alternate source shall be an Ortho Expense and otherwise the provisions of 
Section 8.1 shall not be affected. Ortho shall pay to Chiron the full amounts 
specified in Section 8.1 below, including, without limitation, payments in 
respect of sales of Products containing Raw Material, whether such Raw 
Material is supplied by Chiron or by a secondary source pursuant to this 
Section 7.2. This Section 7.2 shall not

apply to any failure to deliver Raw Material not intended to be incorporated 
in Products for commercial sale.

               (c)  To effectuate the alternate manufacture provisions of 
this Section 7.2, Chiron shall promptly upon Ortho's request, with respect to 
any Raw Material, provide Ortho with all information and materials sufficient 
to enable Ortho to prepare, file and prosecute with the FDA an establishment 
license application for such Raw Material. In addition to such assistance in 
respect to obtaining an establishment license, Chiron shall, at Ortho's 
request, assist Ortho in preparing to be an alternate manufacturer by 
providing Ortho with manufacturing experience. To this end Chiron shall, if 
so requested by Ortho, give Ortho sufficient information, assistance and 
organisms so that Ortho may run at least three, full scale batch runs.

          7.3  ESCROW OF MANUFACTURING PROCESS.

               (a)  With respect to all Raw Materials, within 30 days of 
submitting an establishment license application to the FDA, but in any event 
not later than 60 days prior to the first commercial sale of Product 
containing or utilizing such Raw Materials, Chiron will place (i) with a 
mutually agreed upon escrow agent a description of its process of the 
manufacture of each Raw Material in sufficiently clear and detailed terms 
that it can be readily followed an carried out by a trained biologist to make 
said Raw Material, and (ii) with a depository, all organisms containing the 
genetic material necessary to enable such biologist to so make said Raw 
Material. Furthermore, should Chiron alter, modify or change its process for 
manufacturing said Raw Material, Chiron will amend the description in escrow 
and the material deposited to include such alteration, modification or 
change. The description held in escrow and the organisms held in a depository 
pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall be available to Ortho only in the

                                        35.

event and to the extent necessary to remedy a Supply Shortfall pursuant to 
Section 7.2. In such event, Chiron shall, upon reasonable request, provide 
reasonable assistance to Ortho, such as instructing appropriately trained 
personnel, as may be necessary to enable Ortho to manufacture said Raw 
Material. Title to any and all copies or embodiments of the description shall 
remain in Chiron. Title to any and all organisms, progeny of organisms, and 
genetic material derived from organisms shall remain in Chiron. Ortho shall 
not allow, without prior written approval of Chiron, use of the information 
in the description, the organism or any genetic material derived therefrom 
for any purpose other than carrying out the limited manufacturing rights 
granted pursuant to Section 7.2. For example and without limitation, Ortho 
shall not allow the alteration or mutation of the organism or its progeny, or 
the cloning or sequencing of any genetic material derived from the organism 
or its progeny without the prior written approval of Chiron. In the event of 
any unauthorized use of the information in the description, the organism, its 
progeny or any genetic material derived therefrom, all resulting data, 
biological material, and/or inventions shall be the property of Chiron and 
shall be promptly and fully delivered to Chiron.

               (b)  Upon termination by Chiron of the limited manufacturing 
rights granted Ortho pursuant to Section 7.2, Ortho shall immediately cease 
to use the information supplied by the escrow agent and the organism and 
shall return such information and all copies or other embodiments thereof to 
the escrow agent, and shall return the organism, its progeny and any genetic 
material derived therefrom, to the depository or destroy it, at Chiron's 
option.

                                      PAYMENTS


          8.1  PROFIT SHARING.

               (a)  Within ninety (90) days after the end of each Calendar
Quarter, Ortho shall calculate the Preliminary Profits for such quarter based
upon Net Sales invoiced, Ortho Expenses accrued, Chiron Expenses accrued and
Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments received by Chiron and Ortho in respect of said
Calendar Quarter.

               (b)  Within ninety (90) days after the end of each Calendar
Quarter, Ortho shall pay to Chiron (i) an amount equal to Chiron Expenses
accrued during such quarter, plus (ii) an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of
positive Preliminary Profits, if any, for such quarter, provided, however, that
Ortho may offset against any payment owed to Chiron under this paragraph (b) the
amount of any Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments made directly to Chiron by Abbott
in respect of such quarter; provided, further, however, that if the sum of such
Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payment exceeds the sum of Chiron Expenses plus fifty
percent (50%) of positive Preliminary Profits, if any, for such quarter, Ortho
shall make no payment to Chiron and Chiron shall pay such excess amount to Ortho
in cash within thirty (30) days after receipt by Chiron of the report from Ortho
for such quarter.

               (c)  Within ninety (90) days after the end of each Calendar Year
in which Final Profits is a positive amount, Ortho shall pay to Chiron, or
Chiron shall pay to Ortho, as the case may be, an amount equal to the difference
between fifty percent (50%) of such Final Profits and the sum of all positive
Preliminary Profits paid to (or retained by) Chiron pursuant to Section
8.1(b)(ii) above.

                                        37.
<PAGE>



               (d)  If, for any Calendar Year in which Final Profits is a
positive amount, the amount of the payment provided for in paragraph (c) above
exceeds  *  of such Final Profits, such payment shall include interest on the
amount of such payment at the average prime rate for such year (as reported in
the Wall Street Journal) as if the amount of such payment had been a loan
outstanding for a six month period.

               (e)  Ortho will establish and maintain the intercompany 
transfer price by Ortho to its Affiliates for Products in good faith and, 
subject to applicable law and regulation in the relevant foreign jurisdiction 
and reasonable sales expenses anticipated to be incurred by its Affiliate, at 
a level that is consistent with maximizing profits of each of the parties 
under this Agreement. In the event Chiron establishes that Ortho has not 
complied with the foregoing, Ortho shall pay to Chiron an amount equal to the 
additional sums Chiron would have received if Ortho had so complied. Such 
additional payment shall be Chiron's only remedy for any breach by Ortho of 
this Section 8.1(e); provided, that continued material failure of Ortho to 
comply with this provision based on its intentional or grossly negligent 
conduct shall be grounds for termination under Section 12.3 below.

          8.2  * For each calendar year in which Final Profit is a negative 
amount,

               (a)  Chiron shall pay to Ortho*  *  for such calendar year 
received (or retained) by it pursuant to Section 8.1(b)(ii) above;

               (b)  In any calendar year, if the Budget, if any, approved by the
Supervisory Board for such year contemplated a negative Final Profit, Chiron
shall pay

to Ortho in cash an amount equal to  *  of the lesser of actual negative Final
Profit or budgeted negative Final Profit for such year, within 30 days after
receipt by Chiron of Ortho's year end accounting for such calendar year;

               (c)  In any calendar year through December 31, 1992, if the
Budget, if any, approved by the Supervisory Board did not contemplate a negative
Final Profit, or if the Supervisory Board did not approve a Budget for that
year, Chiron shall not make any payment in cash in respect of such negative
amount to Ortho (other than the reconciling payment, if any, under subsection
8.2(a) above) and no such negative amount shall be carried forward into any
subsequent calendar year;

               (d)  In any calendar year beginning after December 31, 1992, (A)
if the Supervisory Board did not approve a budget for such year, or (B) if the
Budget, if any, for such year approved by the Supervisory Board did not
contemplate a negative Final Profit, then Chiron shall not make any payment in
cash to Ortho (other than the reconciling payment under subsection 8.2(a) above)
in respect of such negative Final Profit, but  *  ) of such negative amount
(together with interest on the unrecovered portion thereof at the prime rate
from the date of final year end accounting until recovered in full) may be
charged by Ortho against any future Preliminary or Final Profit amounts that are
positive, provided, that no such charge shall reduce any such future Preliminary
or Final Profit to a negative amount; and

               (e)  In any calendar year beginning after December 31, 1992, 
if the Budget, if any, for such year approved by the Supervisory Board 
contemplated a negative Final Profit, and the actual amount of the negative 
Final Profit exceeds the negative amount contemplated in such Budget, then 
Chiron shall not make any payment to Ortho (other than the reconciling 
payment under Section 8.2(a) above) in respect of

* = Confidential portions of material have been omitted and filed separately

the amount by which actual negative Final Profit exceeds the budgeted negative
Final Profit, but  *  of such excess amount (together with interest thereon at
the prime rate from the date of the final year end accounting until recovered in
full) may be charged by Ortho against any future Preliminary or Final Profit
amounts that are positive, provided, that no such charge shall reduce any such
future Preliminary or Final Profit to a negative amount.

          8.3  ABBOTT IMMUNODIAGNOSTIC PAYMENTS. Except as disclosed in Exhibit
H, Ortho and Chiron each represents and warrants to the other that neither it
nor any of its Affiliates is a party to any agreement with Abbott or any of
Abbott's Affiliates relating to the development, manufacture, marketing,
distribution or sale of any Raw Material or any Products which contain or
utilize any Raw Material, other than the Abbott Immunodiagnostics Agreement.

there is no Plan and Budget approved by the Supervisory Board and in which Net
Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments exceed  *  and Presumed Abbott Total Profits
exceed  *  this Section 8.4(a) shall apply. When this Section 8.4(a) applies,
Ortho shall pay to Chiron  *  of the excess, if any, of Presumed Abbott Total
Profits over the sum of Final Profits plus the Annual Margin.

               (b)  That portion of any payment due to Chiron under paragraph

any, for such calendar year shall be paid within 90 days of the end of such
year. The unpaid balance of such payment shall be due and payable from time to
time within 90 days of the end of each succeeding Calendar Quarter for which
there are Net Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments, in amounts that do not exceed
  *  of such Net Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments, together with interest on the
amount so paid calculated at the average prime rate (as reported in the Wall
Street Journal) from the end of the calendar year in respect of which such
payment was calculated, until paid.

               (c)  For purposes of this Section 8.4, in each year in which
Ortho or its Affiliates do not Ship any Product (other than Products which
contain or utilize HCV Antigens or Antibodies and no other Antigens or
Antibodies) to unaffiliated third parties in Japan, all calculations made under
this Section 8.4 (including, without limitation, the calculation of Final
Profits, the number of Units of Product Shipped by Ortho, and the number of
Presumed Additional Abbott Units) shall be determined by excluding from the
relevant calculation all Units of Product Shipped to unaffiliated third parties
in Japan, and all expenses and revenues associated therewith.

          8.5  FORM OF PAYMENT. All payments due to Chiron or Ortho hereunder
shall be paid in United States dollars in immediately available funds, for
Chiron's or Ortho's account, to a bank in the United States designated in

are made with respect to Net Sales or other amounts that are made or expended in
countries outside the United States, all invoiced prices and other component
charges, allowances, credits, costs, taxes and duties used to determine Net
Sales or such other expenses shall be converted from the invoiced currency to
the equivalent in United States dollars, computed at the

the Calendar Quarter during which such Net Sales were made or expenses incurred.

          8.6  REPORTS.

               (a)  Within sixty (60) days after the end of each Calendar

reasonable detail the Preliminary Revenues and Preliminary Expenses for such
quarter and the resulting calculation of the amount to be paid to Chiron or to
Ortho pursuant to Section 8.1 above.

               (c)  Within ninety (90) days after the end of each fourth
Calendar Quarter, Ortho shall provide Chiron with a written report setting forth
in reasonable detail the number, description and aggregate Net Sales for such
quarter; Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments received by Ortho during such quarter,
and Ortho Expenses for such quarter, and Total Revenues and Total Expenses for
the calendar year ending with such quarter, and the resulting calculation of the
amount to be paid to Chiron or Ortho pursuant to Section 8.1 above; together
with the calculation contemplated by Section 8.4 and data in reasonable detail
in support of such calculation.

          8.7  COMBINATION PRODUCTS. In the event a Combination Product is
marketed by Ortho, the Supervisory Board shall agree upon the portion of net
sales of such Combination Product that will be treated as Net Sales for purposes
of Section 8.1 and the portion of Chiron expenses and Ortho expenses in respect
of such Product that

                                        42.
<PAGE>

may be charged as Chiron Expenses or Ortho Expenses, respectively. Should the
Supervisory Board be unable to agree to such allocations, the matter shall be
resolved by a certified public accountant in the manner provided for in Section
8.8(b).

          8.8  EXAMINATION OF BOOKS.

               (a)  Chiron and Ortho each shall keep and maintain complete and
accurate books of account in respect of their activities under this Agreement in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.
The parties shall retain such records for so long as the parties shall mutually
determine.

               (b)  As soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of
this Agreement, but in no event later than December 31, 1989, the parties shall
agree to a statement of accounting principles and methodologies which shall be
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and which shall be
attached hereto as Exhibit A. The agreed statement shall be equally applicable
to all calculations made by each party under this Agreement. In the event of any
disagreement in the preparation of Exhibit A or in future as to such statement
or its application to the activities of either party, such disagreement shall be
resolved by agreement between the independent certified public accounting firm
employed regularly by each party, or, failing such agreement, by another
independent certified public accounting firm selected by such firms. Such
disagreement shall be resolved in a manner which is consistent with the
provisions of this Agreement and Exhibit A or, in the absence of any applicable
provision, in a manner which is fair and reasonable to both parties. Each party
shall provide to the other annually a certification of an independent certified
public accountant to the effect that the calculations made by such party under
this Agreement were consistent with the principles and methodologies set forth
in Exhibit A.

               (c)  In addition to any other inspection rights of Chiron, Chiron
shall have the right, for any period during which Ortho or its Affiliates shall
be manufacturing or distributing any Product or incurring any Ortho Expenses and
for three years thereafter, to examine the relevant books and records of account
of Ortho and its Affiliates engaged in activities under this Agreement at normal
business hours, upon reasonable demand, to determine whether appropriate
accounting and payment have been made by Ortho hereunder. Any expenses incurred
by Chiron in connection with any such examination shall not be charged as Chiron
Expenses.

               (d)  In addition to any other inspection rights of Ortho, Ortho
shall have the right for any period during which Chiron or its Affiliates shall
be incurring any Chiron Expenses or receiving Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments
and for three years thereafter, to examine the relevant books and records of
account of Chiron and its Affiliates engaged in activities under this Agreement
at normal business hours, upon reasonable demand, to determine whether
appropriate accounting and payment have been made by Chiron hereunder. Any
expenses incurred by Ortho in connection with any such examination shall not be
charged as Ortho Expenses.

          8.9  INTEREST ON OVERDUE PAYMENTS. If any sum due hereunder is not
paid in full on the due date,  *  (as published from time to time by the WALL
STREET JOURNAL), or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower, shall
accrue and become payable upon any unpaid balance from the date of the debtor's
receipt of a respective written notice from the recipient until such time as
payment is made in full.

                                 PATENT LITIGATION


          9.1  DEFENSE OF PATENT LITIGATION.

               (a)  In the event that either party or an Affiliate or customer
of either party is sued by a third party charging infringement of a patent
resulting from the manufacture of any Antigens, Antibodies or Products by the
parties or any of their Affiliates, the party which is sued (or whose customer
is sued) shall promptly notify the other.

               (b)  Each party shall control its own defense in any such patent
litigation. Neither party will object to the intervention of the other in any
such litigation and, to the extent that their interests are consistent, each
will cooperate and provide reasonable assistance to the other with respect to
such litigation. The reasonable costs and expenses of defense of such suit and
all amounts reasonably paid to third parties in damages (including royalties)
and settlement may be charged as an Ortho Expense or a Chiron Expense, as the
case may be, provided, that where applicable, such expenses are fairly allocable
to the Products.

          9.2  PATENT CLAIMS AGAINST THIRD PARTIES. If, in the opinion of either
party hereunder, any Patent to the extent licensed hereunder has been infringed
by the making, using or selling of a product of a third party, such party
hereunder shall give notice to the party owning the Patent alleged to be
infringed, whereupon such Patent-owning party may, at its discretion, take such
steps as it may consider necessary to prosecute such infringement. If the
Patent-owning party does not bring suit within ninety (90) days after notice by
the other party, the other party shall then have the right, and will become
entitled by the Patent-owning party, to bring suit and the Patent-owning


                                        45.
<PAGE>

party shall cooperate in connection therewith including but not limited to
permitting the other party to sue in its name, if necessary. In any such
litigation brought by either party, the other party shall have the right to be
represented by counsel. All damages recovered as a result of any such
infringement shall be shared equally by Chiron and Ortho. All fairly allocable
expenses incurred in connection with such infringement may be charged as Ortho
Expenses or Chiron Expenses, as the case may be.

IMPROVEMENTS THEREON OR CHIRON PATENTS.

          10.2 PRODUCT LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION.

               (a)  Notwithstanding the definition of Excluded Expenses in this
Agreement, but subject to the provisions of subsections (b) through (g) below,
there may be included as Ortho Expenses and Chiron Expenses the amount of any
and all liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including attorney's
fees (collectively, the "Liabilities"), arising from any suit or claim by a
third party alleging personal injury or

                                        46.
<PAGE>

property damage based on the use, manufacture or sale of any Product by Ortho or
its Affiliates, directly or indirectly including without limitation any product
liabilities resulting from the inherent properties of any Raw Material or
Product, the use by Ortho or any of its Affiliates of any Antigens or
Antibodies, the development or manufacture of any Product by Ortho or Chiron or
any of their respective Affiliates or the use of any Product manufactured, used
or sold by Ortho, Chiron or their Affiliates by any human being regardless of
whether such use was completed by the parties.

               (b)  Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) above, Ortho shall
indemnify and hold Chiron and its Affiliates harmless from and against
Liabilities finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by
specific reference in a settlement agreement to which both parties have
consented to have arisen solely from the fault or negligence (but not the strict
liability or liabilities resulting from the inherent properties of any Raw
Material or Product) of Ortho or its Affiliates or licensee (other than Abbott)
relating to the use, manufacture or sale of any Product.

               (c)  Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) above, Chiron shall
indemnify and holds Ortho and its Affiliates harmless from and against
Liabilities finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or by
specific reference in a settlement agreement to which both parties have
consented to have arisen solely from the fault or negligence (but not the strict
liability or liabilities resulting from the inherent properties of any Raw
Material or Product) of Chiron relating to the manufacture of any Raw Material.

               (d)  For the avoidance of doubt, (i) expenses incurred by either
party as an indemnity pursuant to subsections 10.2(b) or (c) shall not be
included in Ortho Expenses or Chiron Expenses, (ii) reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by the

                                        47.
<PAGE>

party defending a claim subject to Section 10.2(b) or (c) shall be included in
Ortho Expenses or Chiron Expenses, as the case may be, and (iii) neither Section
10.2(b) or (c) shall apply if it has been determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction or by specific reference in a settlement agreement to which both
parties consented that there was fault or negligence of both parties, or their
respective Affiliates, as, for example, might be the case if Ortho was found to
be negligent in failing to discover the effect of any negligence of Chiron.

               (e)  Nothing in Section 10.2(b) or (c) shall require either party
to indemnify the other for lost profits.

               (f)  Each party shall notify the other promptly upon receipt of
any notice of any product liability claim or lawsuit subject to this Section
10.2. Such notice shall be a condition to any indemnity provided for herein.
Ortho shall be responsible for defending any such claim except as to any claim
for which Ortho expects to seek indemnity under subsection 10.2(c) above, in
which case Chiron shall defend such claim. Chiron or Ortho, as the case may be,
may participate in any such litigation controlled by the other at its election
and expense. Ortho may settle any such suit controlled by it with Chiron's
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Chiron may settle any such
suit controlled by it with Ortho's consent, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld.

               (g)  Ortho may charge as Ortho Expenses the reasonable costs of
product liability insurance (if any), out-of-pocket costs of product recall or
market withdrawal and amounts paid to third parties to settle or otherwise
dispose of all liability of both parties in all product liability suits without
limit if Ortho is acting under Subsection 2.4(b)(iii) and otherwise up to a
maximum of  *  per suit,

Settlement expenses in excess of such amount shall require the consent of the
Supervisory Board, which if obtained may be charged as Ortho Expenses. Chiron
may charge as Chiron Expenses the reasonable costs of product liability
insurance (if any).

          10.3 TRADE DRESS.

          Chiron shall indemnify and hold harmless Ortho with respect to any
liabilities arising solely out of the use of Chiron's name and logo on any
labeling, advertising or promotional materials, which use is alleged to infringe
a third party trademark; provided, that this indemnity shall not apply to any
use of Chiron's name or logo other than in the manner provided for in Section
13.3 below. Ortho shall notify Chiron promptly upon receipt of notice of any
such claim or lawsuit, which notice shall be a condition to the indemnity
provided for herein. Chiron shall be responsible for defending any such claim.
Chiron may in its sole discretion settle any such suit. Costs incurred in
connection with any such suit shall not be charged as Chiron Expenses.

case of Ortho, only its Principal Affiliates), licensees, employees, agents or
subcontractors as are necessary in connection with such party's activities as

Abbott), agents and subcontractors to hold in confidence and not make use of
such trade secrets or proprietary information for any purpose other than those
permitted by this Agreement. Each party shall use a similar effort to that which
it uses to protect its own trade secrets or proprietary information to ensure
that its Affiliates, licensees (other than Abbott), employees, agents and
subcontractors do not disclose or make any unauthorized use of trade secrets or
proprietary information of the other party hereto. Each party shall notify the
other promptly upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the
other's trade secrets or proprietary information.

          11.2 EXCEPTIONS. The obligation of confidentiality contained in this
Article XI shall not apply to the extent that (a) any party (the "Recipient") is
required to disclose information by law, order or regulation of a governmental
agency or a court of competent jurisdiction or (b) the Recipient can demonstrate
that: (i) the received information was at the time of receipt already in the
public domain or thereafter enters the public domain other than as a result of
actions of the Recipient, its Affiliates, employees, licensees (other than
Abbott), agents or subcontractors, in violation hereof; (ii) the received
information was rightfully known by the Recipient or its Affiliates (as shown by
its written records) prior to the date of receipt by Recipient from the other
party hereunder; or (iii) the received information is disclosed to the Recipient
or its

                TERMINATION, RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS UPON TERMINATION


          12.1 TERM.

               (a)  Unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of this
Article XII, this Agreement shall continue to be effective until December 31,
2039, PROVIDED that the term of this Agreement shall be automatically renewed
for a period of five years from such termination date or any renewal termination
date unless one of the parties hereto shall notify the other party, in writing,
five years in advance of such termination date, of its intent to terminate this
Agreement.

               (b)  Section 12.1(a) notwithstanding, this Agreement with respect
to the European Economic Community shall terminate on a country-by-country basis
on the expiration of the last to expire Patent Right based upon a patent
application pending as of the Effective Date of this Agreement; provided,
however, that until December 31, 2039, each party shall have the right on a
country-by-country basis to renew this Agreement for successive one year periods
by providing the other party with written notice of such renewal prior to any
termination date.

          12.2 TERMINATION BY MUTUAL AGREEMENT. This Agreement may be terminated
upon mutual written agreement between the parties.

          12.3 TERMINATION BY DEFAULT. If either party intentionally or as a
result of its own gross negligence defaults in the performance of, or fails to
be in compliance with, any material agreement, condition, or covenant of this
Agreement, and such

                                        51.
<PAGE>

default or noncompliance shall not have been substantially remedied, or steps
initiated to substantially remedy the same to the other party's reasonable
satisfaction, within sixty (60) days (subject to the provisions of Section 13.12
hereof) after receipt by the defaulting party of a written notice thereof from
the other party, the party not in default may terminate this Agreement, at the
option of such party and by written notice to the defaulting party.

          12.4 TERMINATION BY COURT ORDER. This Agreement may be terminated as
to a particular Antigen or Antibody by the party to be restrained upon the
issuance of a final order or decree issued in a bona fide proceeding by or
before any competent governmental agency or judicial authority which restrains
or enjoins in any material respect the manufacture of said Antigen or Antibody
by Chiron or Chiron's sale or transfer to Ortho, or the purchase or use of said
Antigens or Antibodies by Ortho or the manufacture or sale by Ortho of the
respective Product(s), provided that any such termination shall not apply to
those countries in which the restrained party's performance is not restrained or
impaired by such order or decree.

          If prior to the issuance of such decree either party believes that its
issuance cannot be avoided then either party may request the other party to
agree to the termination of this Agreement as provided in the foregoing
sentence, which agreement will not be unreasonably withheld.

          12.5 EFFECTIVE DATE OF TERMINATION. Unless otherwise provided herein,
termination by either party pursuant to this Article XII shall be by written
notice to the other party and shall be effective on the date of delivery of such
notice to the other party hereto.

<PAGE>

          12.6 RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS ON TERM, TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION.

               (a)  Unless expressly provided to the contrary, the provisions of
Articles IX, X and XI (in either case with respect to a cause of action arising
during the term of this Agreement) shall survive the termination of this
Agreement as well as those rights and/or obligations which by their intent or
meaning have a validity beyond the termination of this Agreement.

               (b)  Termination by either party pursuant to this Article XII
shall not prejudice any other remedy that a party might have in law or equity,
except that neither party may claim compensation for lost opportunity or like
consequential damages arising out of the fact of such termination.

               (c)  Promptly upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Sections 12.2 or 12.4 of this Article, except as to information in the public
domain, each party, its Affiliates and licensees shall return all confidential
documentation and information received from the other party, its Affiliates or
licensors which may be in the possession of such party or that of its Affiliates
or licensees; provided, however, that the returning party may retain an archival
copy of said confidential information in its legal department to enable
compliance with its confidentiality obligations.

               (d)  Promptly upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 12.3 of this Article, except as to information in the public domain,
each party, its Affiliates and licensees shall return all confidential
documentation and information received from the other party, its Affiliates or
licensors which may be in the possession of such party or that of its Affiliates
or licensees; provided, however, that the returning party may retain an archival
copy of said confidential information in its legal department to enable
compliance with its confidentiality obligations; and further provided, however,

                                        53.
                                          
<PAGE>

that the party not in default need not return any confidential documentation 
and information of the defaulting party and, notwithstanding Section 11.1 
hereof, may continue to use such documentation and information solely for the 
purposes and subject to applicable license and supply terms of this Agreement 
upon payment of a reasonable royalty if the default of the defaulting party, 
as determined by agreement or admission, binding arbitration, or, in the case 
of (a) below, the final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent 
jurisdiction was either: (a) the willful or grossly negligent breach of the 
confidentiality provisions hereof or (b) the willful or grossly negligent 
breach by Chiron of the exclusive nature of the license to Ortho hereunder or 
by Ortho of the requirements purchase obligation hereunder, such that the 
effect of such breach, to the extent not cured or mitigated, is to deprive 
the non-defaulting party of the fundamental benefits of its bargain under 
this Agreement.

               (e)  In the event of a partial termination of this Agreement in
the European Economic Community pursuant to Section 12.1(b) above, each
Principal Affiliate of Ortho that uses or sells Product in the European Economic
Community or makes or has made Product in the European Economic Community for
resale in the European Economic Community, shall, effective as of the date of
such partial termination, no longer be deemed to be a Principal Affiliate for
purposes of this Agreement, but shall be treated simply as an Affiliate of
Ortho.

          12.7 ACCOUNTING. Upon any termination of this Agreement pursuant to
this Article XII:

               (a)  The parties shall, within ninety (90) days after 
termination, prepare reports and make payments in a manner substantially the 
same as provided for

                                        54.
<PAGE>

in Article VIII hereof, to account for unaccounted Net Sales, Abbott
Immunodiagnostic Payments, Chiron Expenses and Ortho Expenses;

               (b)  The Supervisory Board shall cause to be prepared and furnish
to the parties hereto a statement of any assets owned jointly by the parties
pursuant to this Agreement, other than Patents and Know-How (subject to
paragraph (c) below), and shall proceed as promptly as practicable, but in an
orderly and business-like manner, to liquidate such assets, and to make
arrangements for the assumption of any remaining joint obligations of the
parties under existing licenses and agreements with third parties entered into
pursuant to this Agreement. Subject to the approval of the Supervisory Board,
either party or any Affiliate thereof shall be permitted to acquire all or a
part of such assets upon no less favorable terms than offered by a third party,
or, if no such terms are offered, at fair value.

               (c)  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein (including,
without limitation, Section 12.6(d)), (i) each party shall remain the owner of
its Patents and Know-How; (ii) all Patents and Know-How that are jointly owned
shall remain jointly owned; and (iii) all express or implied licenses to such
Patents and Know-How hereunder shall terminate.

               (d)  Until the payments contemplated by this paragraph (d) 
have been made in full, Ortho shall pay to Chiron or Ortho may retain, as the 
case may be, in the following order of priority, and promptly upon receipt by 
Ortho, that portion of Abbott Immunodiagnostic Payments equal to (i) Chiron 
Expenses incurred in connection with the performance of Chiron's obligations 
under that Agreement, (ii) any accrued by unpaid amounts due to Chiron under 
Section 8.4 above, and (iii) any accrued by unpaid amounts due to Ortho under 
Section 8.2 above.

                                        55.
<PAGE>


               (e)  The parties shall cooperate in securing an amendment 
(which shall be effective promptly upon payment in full of the amounts set 
forth in paragraph (d) above) to the Abbott Immunodiagnostics Agreement to 
provide for direct payment to Chiron of that portion of the Abbott 
Immunodiagnostics Payments equal to the sum of (i) Chiron Expenses incurred 
in connection with the performance of Chiron's obligations under that 
Agreement and (ii)     *       ) of the difference between the Abbott 
Immunodiagnostic Payments and such Chiron expenses.

               (f)  Subject to the foregoing, all proceeds of the liquidation 
of assets as set forth in paragraph (b) above shall be distributed in the 
following order of priority:

                    (i)     to pay, pro rata, all previously unreimbursed 
Chiron Expenses and Ortho Expenses;

                    (ii)    to pay to Chiron any accrued but unpaid amounts 
due to Chiron pursuant to Section 8.4 above;

                    (iii)   to pay to Ortho any accrued but unpaid losses 
carried forward pursuant to Section 8.2 above; and 

                    (iv)       *     to Chiron and    *       to Ortho.

     12.8      EFFECT OF TERMINATION ON ABBOTT AGREEMENT. Any termination of
this Agreement pursuant to Article XII above shall not, in and of itself, 
reduce or terminate the license granted to Abbott under the Abbott 
Immunodiagnostics Agreement, including Abbott's right to use any portion of 
the Know-How licensed by Chiron to Ortho.

          12.9 CESSATION OF PRODUCT SALES AND ALLOCATION OF CERTAIN RIGHTS.

               (a)  CESSATION BY ORTHO OF HCV PRODUCT SALES. Ortho shall have 
the right, at any time in any year following the year in which payments have 
been made under Section 8.4(a) or in any year in which Ortho may show by 
creditable evidence that payments will be made in respect of such year under 
such section, to reduce or cease entirely the commercial sale by Ortho and 
its Affiliates of any or all Products which contain or utilize HCV Antigens 
or HCV Antibodies, provided, however, that in the event Ortho ceases all such 
sales, neither party nor any of their respective Affiliates thereafter, 
directly or indirectly, may make, have made, use or sell Products which 
contain or utilize HCV Antigens or HCV Antibodies, other than pursuant to the 
Abbott Immunodiagnostic Agreement, without the express written agreement of 
the other party.

               (b)  MINIMUM SALES OF NON-HCV PRODUCTS. Ortho shall have the 
right, at any time in any year following a year in which payments have been 
made under Section 8.4(a) or in any year in which Ortho may show creditable 
evidence that payments will be made in respect of such year, to reduce or 
cease entirely the commercial sale of any or all Products, other than those 
which contain or utilize HCV Antigens or HCV Antibodies ("non-HCV Products"). 
In the event Ortho fails to achieve and maintain a minimum of at least  *  
per year in the aggregate of Net Sales of all non-HCV Products for any two 
consecutive years in which Section 8.4(a) applies, Chiron may cause the 
Agreement to become non-exclusive with respect to all non-HCV Products and 
all Antigens and Antibodies other than HCV Antigens and HCV Antibodies. In 
the event that this Agreement becomes non-exclusive pursuant to this 
paragraph (b), Ortho shall grant to Chiron and its Affiliates, upon Chiron's 
request, a non-exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide license, with the right to 
sublicense, under Ortho

* = Confidential portions of material have been omitted and filed separately 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

<PAGE>

Know-How and Ortho Patents to make, have made, use and sell Products, other than
Products which contain or utilize HCV Antigens or HCV Antibodies, within the
Field of Use. The license shall bear a royalty equal to  *  of Chiron's pretax
profit from the sale or licensing of Products or Antigens or Antibodies subject
thereto.

               (c)  DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT. At such time as any such license is
granted pursuant to paragraphs (b) above, each party shall negotiate in good
faith and execute a definitive license agreement embodying the provisions
outlined above and such other terms and conditions as are reasonable and
customary.

                                    ARTICLE XIII

                                   MISCELLANEOUS


          13.1 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. As of the Effective Date, the License 
Agreement and the Distribution Agreement shall be terminated and of no 
further force and effect. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the 
parties regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior 
agreements, understandings and negotiations regarding the same. The parties 
acknowledge that there have been various statements, both oral and written, 
pertaining to the making of this Agreement and the parties' performance 
hereunder. The parties agree that neither has relied on any such statements, 
but instead have relied upon the representations and warranties explicitly 
set forth herein. This Agreement may not be changed, modified, amended or 
supplemented except by a written instrument signed by both parties hereto.

          13.2 NON-COMPETITION

               (a)  ABSENCE OF EXISTING COMPETITION. Ortho represents and
warrants to Chiron that, to the best of its knowledge and belief, except as set
forth in Exhibit E hereto and other than the Principal Ortho Affiliates, neither
J&J nor any

* = Confidential portions of material have been omitted and filed separately 
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

                                        58.
<PAGE>

Affiliate of J&J in the principal countries designated as such on Exhibit E is
presently engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing, marketing or
distributing Immunological assays for the detection of hepatitis viruses or
retroviruses in humans or human samples. As used herein, the best knowledge and
belief of Ortho shall be limited to the actual knowledge and belief of all of
its directors, R. R. Rodenbaugh, Vice President - Business Development and J.
Goldstein, Group Vice President, without any such persons having made any
inquiry or investigation concerning such matters. Ortho represents and warrants
to Chiron that a complete list of its directors is included in Exhibit E hereto.

          (b)  FUTURE BUSINESS. Ortho covenants and agrees that, except as
expressly set forth below, neither Ortho nor any Affiliate of Ortho listed on
Exhibit D hereto (whether or not such Affiliate has accepted a sublicense
hereunder and agreed to be bound by the terms hereof) nor any of their
respective successors in interest shall engage in the business of developing,
manufacturing, marketing or distributing Antigens or Antibodies or any Product
which contains or utilizes Antigens or Antibodies other than, through Ortho and
with Chiron, as contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the generality
of the foregoing, Chiron agrees that Ortho's Affiliates, the Advance Care
Products Division, and Johnson & Johnson Professional Diagnostics Division, both
being divisions of Ortho Pharmaceutical Corporation, a New Jersey corporation
("Advance Care" and "J&J Professional Diagnostics", respectively, may, either
independently or with third parties, engage in the business of developing,
manufacturing, marketing or distributing Products which contain or utilize
Retrovirus Antigens for sale into either (i) the over-the-counter consumer
market (the "OTC Field") or (ii) the physicians' office market (the "MD Field")
or (iii) both the OTC Field and

                                        59.

<PAGE>

the MD Field; provided, that in the event Advance Care or J&J Professional
Diagnostics elect to engage in such business, Ortho shall, at Chiron's request,
grant back to Chiron (x) an exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide,  *  license as to
Chiron Know-How and Chiron Patents, (y) a non-exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide,
 *  license as to Ortho Know-How and Ortho Patents existing as of the date of
this Agreement, to the extent such license is necessary, to utilize such
Retrovirus Antigens in Products and (z) a non-exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide,
 *  license as to Ortho Patents and Ortho Know-How acquired during the term of
this Agreement as to which the costs thereof are charged as Ortho Expenses; said
licenses in each case of (x), (y) and (z) to make, have made, buy and sell
Products and, in whichever of the OTC Field or the MD Field or both that Advance
Care and/or J&J Professional Diagnostics are so engaged and to do such acts and
things and convey such other rights under this Agreement as may be necessary for
Chiron to engage in such business in such field, either independently or with a
third party.

               (c)  CONFIDENTIALITY. Ortho further covenants and agrees that
Ortho will not sell, assign, license, transfer or otherwise convey to J&J or any
Affiliate of J&J any Chiron or Ortho Patent or Ortho Know-How; provided,
however, that with the agreement of the receiving Affiliate to be bound by the
terms of this Agreement, Ortho may transfer Ortho Patents or Ortho Know-How to
any Principal Ortho Affiliate; and provided further, that in no event shall
Ortho transfer Ortho Patents or Ortho Know-How to J&J Professional Diagnostics
or Advance Care, unless either or both has waived its right to make the election
referred to in (b) above.

          13.3 USE OF PARTIES NAME. Subject to any applicable law or regulation
to the contrary, the parties agree that in all advertising, promotional
materials and

* = Confidential portions of material have been omitted and filed separately
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

                                        60.
<PAGE>

product labeling where the corporate name and/or logo of Ortho appear (other
than as a trademark), the Chiron corporate name and/or logo shall also appear
and be given equal prominence with Ortho's, and neither party's name and/or logo
shall be positioned above the other or positioned further from the center of the
display than the other. The prominence of each party's name and/or logo shall be
in the same proportion to the trademark as is shown on Exhibit G attached
hereto. The foregoing shall not apply to the use of Ortho's name as a trademark,
provided, however, that in the event any variation of the word "Ortho" is used
as all or part of a trademark, then in all advertising, promotional material or
product labeling in which such trademark appears, the corporate name and/or logo
of both parties also shall appear in accordance with the foregoing. Exhibit G is
an example of a label and print advertisement which the parties agree is
reflective of the foregoing agreements. This Section 13.3 shall apply to any
corporate name or logo of Ortho or any successor to Ortho. Except as provided
above, Ortho may advertise the products in its discretion and neither Chiron nor
Ortho shall have any right, express or implied, to use in any manner the other's
name, tradenames, or trademarks.

          13.4 ASSIGNABILITY. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
contained herein or in the Abbott Immunodiagnostics Agreement, this Agreement
may not be assigned or otherwise transferred nor may rights hereunder be
sublicensed and any purported assignment, transfer or sublicense shall be void
if made, without the prior written consent of each party, which consent, subject
to applicable law, may be granted or withheld in the absolute discretion of such
party. Chiron, however, hereby consents to the Abbott Immunodiagnostics
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) neither party will unreasonably
withhold its consent to any assignment by the other party

                                        61.
<PAGE>

to one of its Affiliates of all of its rights hereunder, and (b) no consent need
be obtained by either party to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to a
successor to substantially all of the business of said party and in such cases
assignment will be automatic. Any permitted or consented assignment, transfer or
sublicense shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
by any permitted or consented successors and assignees of the parties hereto.

          13.5 SEVERABILITY. If any part of this Agreement shall be held
unenforceable, the remainder of the Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full
force and effect. The parties agree that any such unenforceable part shall, if
possible, be reformed to be rendered enforceable while still substantially
maintaining the intent of the parties.

          13.6 FURTHER ASSURANCES . Each party hereto agrees to execute,
acknowledge and deliver such further instruments, and to do all such other acts
as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent
of this Agreement.

          13.7 FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Ortho nor Chiron shall be liable for any
failure or delay in performance under this Agreement which is due in whole or in
part directly or indirectly to any cause of any nature beyond the reasonable
control of such party, including, without in any way limiting the generality of
the foregoing, fire, explosion, earthquake, storm, flood, strike, lockout, labor
difficulties, war, insurrection, riot, act of God or the public enemy, or any
law, act, order, export or import control regulations, proclamation, decree,
regulation, ordinance, or instructions of local, federal or foreign governmental
or other public authorities, or judgment or decree of a court of competent
jurisdiction (not arising out of breach by such party of this Agreement). In the
event of the happening of such a cause, the party so affected shall give prompt

                                        62.
<PAGE>

written notice to the other party, stating the period of time the same is
expected to continue and shall take all reasonable measures to ensure that the
effects of such case of force majeure are kept as minimal as possible.

          13.8 NOTICE AND REPORTS. All notices required by this Agreement shall
be in writing. All notices and reports shall be mailed by first class mail
postage prepaid, to the parties at the following addresses or such other

          13.9 EXPENSES. Each party shall bear its own expenses if not expressly

<PAGE>

          13.10 WAIVER. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision
contained herein shall in no way be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach of such provision or the waiver of the provision itself.

          13.11 PUBLICITY. Each party agrees to consult with the other and to
seek to coordinate all publicity concerning the existence and terms of this
Agreement to the extent reasonably practical. Neither party shall disclose the
specific financial terms of this Agreement to any third party without the prior
written consent of the other party hereto, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. This Section 13.11 shall not apply to the extent that any
disclosure is (a) of information in the public domain, (b) required to prevent a
third party conflict with this Agreement or to comply with any applicable law,
regulation or order of a bona fide government authority or (c) made under a
confidentiality agreement binding upon the recipient to whom such disclosure is
reasonably necessary (i) in order to define the scope of rights which could be
granted to such recipient without violating this Agreement or (ii) for any
similar valid business purpose. The parties acknowledge that Chiron may file
this document with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to applicable
regulations, provided that in so doing Chiron shall use reasonable efforts to
delete financial terms to the extent permitted by law or regulation.

          13.12 RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. Both parties are independent
contractors under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the parties' agreement to
share certain profits relating to their collaboration, nothing contained in this
Agreement is intended nor is it to be construed so as to constitute Chiron and
Ortho as partners or joint venturers with respect to this Agreement. Employees
of each party remain employees of said party and shall be considered at no time
agents of or render a fiduciary duty to the

                                        64.
<PAGE>

other party. Neither party hereto shall have any expenses or implied right or
authority to assume or create any obligations on behalf of or in the name of the

          13.13 DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

                (a) DISPUTES. The parties recognize that a bona fide dispute
as to certain matters may from time to time arise during the term of this
Agreement which relate to any party's rights and/or obligations hereunder. In
the event of the occurrence of such a dispute, any party may, by written notice
to the other, have such dispute referred to their respective officer designated
below or their successors, for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations
within thirty (30) days after such notice is received. Said designated officers
are as follows:

          For Ortho - President or Chairman

          For Chiron - President

          In the event the designated officers are not able to resolve such
dispute within such thirty-day period, any party may invoke the provisions of
paragraph (b) below within such thirty day period.

                (b) ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Any dispute, controversy
or claim arising out of or relating to the validity, construction,
enforceability or performance of this Agreement, shall be settled by binding
Alternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") in the manner described below:

                    (i)   If a party intends to begin an ADR to resolve a
dispute, such party shall provide written notice (the "ADR Request") to counsel
for the other party informing such other party of such intention and the issues
to be resolved.

                                        65.
<PAGE>

From the date of the ADR Request and until such time as any matter has been
finally settled by ADR, the running of the time periods contained in Section 8.2
as to which party must cure a breach of this Agreement shall be suspended as to
the subject matter of the dispute.

                    (ii)  Within ten (10) business days after the receipt of 
the ADR Request, the other party may, by written notice to the counsel for 
the party initiating ADR, add additional issues to be resolved. Within twenty 
(20) business days following the receipt of the ADR Request a neutral shall 
be selected by the then-President of the Center for Public Resources ("CPR"), 
680 Fifth Ave., New York, New York 10019. The neutral shall be an individual 
who shall preside in resolution of any disputes between the parties. The 
neutral selected shall be a member of the Judicial Panel of the CPR and shall 
not be an employee, director or shareholder of any party or of an Affiliate 
of either party. Either party shall have ten (10) business days from the date 
the neutral is selected to object in good faith to the selection of that 
person. If any party makes such an objection, the then-President of the CPR 
shall, as soon as possible thereafter, elect another neutral under the same 
conditions set forth above. This second selection shall be final.

                    (iii) No later than ninety (90) business days after
selection, the neutral shall hold a hearing to resolve each of the issues
identified by the parties and shall render the award as expeditiously thereafter
as possible but in no event more than thirty (30) days after the close of
hearings. In making the award the neutral shall rule on each disputed issued and
shall adopt in whole or in part the proposed ruling of one of the parties on
each disputed issue.

<PAGE>

                    (iv)  It is the intention of the parties that discovery,
although permitted as described herein, will be extremely limited except in
exceptional circumstances. The neutral shall permit such limited discovery
necessary for an understanding of any legitimate issue raised in the ADR,
including the production of documents. Each party shall be permitted but not
required to take the deposition of not more than five (5) persons, each such
deposition not to exceed six (6) hours in length. If the neutral believes that
exceptional circumstances exist, and additional discovery is necessary for a
full and fair resolution of the issues, he or she may order such additional
discovery as he or she deems necessary. At the hearing the parties may present
testimony (either by live witness or deposition) and documentary evidence. The
hearing shall be held at such place as agreed upon by the parties of if they are
unable to agree at a place designated by the neutral. Each party shall have the
right to be represented by counsel. The neutral shall have sole discretion with
regard to the admissibility of any evidence and all other matters relating to
the conduct of the hearing. The neutral shall, in rendering his or her decision,
apply the substantive law of New Jersey without giving effect to its principles
of conflicts of law, and without giving effect to any rules or laws relating to
arbitration. The decision of the neutral shall be final and not appealable,
except in cases of fraud or bad faith on the part of the neutral or any party to
the ADR proceeding in connection with the conduct of such proceedings.

                    (v)   At least fifteen (15) business days prior to the date
set for the hearing, each party shall submit to the other party and the neutral
a list of all documents on which such party intends to rely in any oral or
written presentation to the neutral and a list of all witnesses, if any, such
party intends to call at such hearing and a brief summary of each witness's
testimony. At least five (5) business days prior to the

                                        67.
<PAGE>

hearing, each party must submit to the neutral and serve on the other party a
proposed ruling on each issue to be resolved. Such writing shall be limited to
representing the proposed rulings, shall contain no argument or analysis of the
facts of issues, and shall be limited to not more than fifty (50) pages. Not
more than five (5) business days following the close of hearings, the parties
may each submit post hearing briefs to the neutral addressing the evidence and
issues to be resolved. Such post hearing briefs shall not be more than ten (10)
pages.

                (c) COSTS AND FEES. The neutral shall determine the
proportion in which the parties shall pay the costs and fees of the ADR. Each
party shall pay its own costs (including, without limitation, attorneys fees)
and expenses in connection with such ADR.

                (d) CONFIDENTIALITY. The ADR proceeding shall be
confidential and the neutral shall issue appropriate protective orders to
safeguard each party's Confidential Information. Except as required by law, no
party shall make (or instruct the neutral to make) any public announcement with
respect to the proceedings or decision of the neutral without the prior written
consent of each other party. The existence of any dispute submitted to ADR, and
the award of the neutral, shall be kept in confidence by the parties and the
neutral, except, as required in connection with the enforcement of such award or
as otherwise required by applicable law.

                (e) AWARD. Any judgment upon the award rendered by the
neutral may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

          13.14 CHOICE OF LAW. This Agreement shall be construed and
interpreted according to the laws of the State of New Jersey.

                        CRITERIA FOR CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENTS


               Establishment and product license applications are approved 
based upon, among other things, demonstration that all manufacturing and 
testing steps for each licensed product are performed in licensed facilities 
and/or under the strict control and supervision of the licensee Title 21, 
Code of Federal Regulations, Section 600.3(u). Therefore, in order to receive 
approval for the performance of certain manufacturing steps at facilities 
other than those included in your establishment license, it will be necessary 
to submit a written agreement between you and each participating outside 
facility. The agreement must be dated and signed by responsible individuals 
at each establishment and should contain the following specifications:

               1.   A complete description of all steps that will be 
performed at the outside facility including the operating procedures that 
will be used and the degree of responsibility provided by each establishment. 
This section should include details related to packaging and labeling for 
shipment to and from the outside facility, manner of shipment (including 
temperature monitoring in the shipping container), storage and handling.

               2.   Designation of a responsible individual from your 
establishment that will supervise the operations performed at the outside 
facilities. Please indicate whether such supervision will be direct 
(on-site), or by other means that will assure us such operations are 
performed under the control of the licensed manufacturer.

               3.   A description of all standard operating procedures and 
manufacturing record forms (batch production records) that will accompany the 
product to and from the outside facility. There should be provisions for you 
to receive complete copies of all batch production records, including test 
and laboratory observation data for each

                                        C-1.
<PAGE>

lot of product manufactured. A complete record of manufacturing of each lot 
of product must be maintained by your establishment. Summaries of the results 
of testing or manufacturing operations are not acceptable in lieu of complete 
copies of manufacturing records.

               4.   If the product is to be stored and distributed at outside 
facilities, a complete description of the distribution and recall system 
should be provided.

               5.   The agreement should include permission for authorized 
representatives of this agency to inspect those portions of the outside 
facility related to manufacturing and testing of the product.

               6.   Written assurance that each outside manufacturing 
establishment complies with Good Manufacturing Practice Regulations (GMPs) 
should also be provided

               7.   Indication whether the outside facility is registered 
with this Agency should be provided.

          herein; and

     (c)  in the event ABBOTT obtains manufacturing rights for an Antigen 
          or Antibody pursuant to Article IV hereof, to make, but not 
          have made, such Antigen or Antibody.

     2.2

     (a)  Any license granted to a third party by ODS to make, use and

          accordance with Exhibit 2.2, attached hereto and incorporated
          herein, only after the expiry of  *  *  from the effective date 
          of this Agreement, unless ABBOTT Ships less than  *  Units of 
          Product worldwide during the first  *  month period following 
          the earlier date of:

          (i)  ABBOTT's being granted a product license for any Product
               from the FDA; or

          (ii)    *  or unless ABBOTT Ships less than  *  Units of Product
               worldwide during the second  *  * month period following 
               the earlier of (a) or (b) above. If at the end of each 
               such * month period ABBOTT has failed to Ship at least the

               may grant any third party the right to sell Product at any
               time thereafter.


     (b)  Within the first  *  after the effective date of this Agreement,

non-exclusive license, without the right to sublicense, under Abbott Know-How 
to make, have made, use and sell Products, including the right to make and

Abbott Know-How owned by ABBOTT and royalty-bearing for Abbott Know-How owned 
or controlled by an Abbott Collaborator, with the proviso that any such 
royalty which ODS, CHIRON and their respective Affiliates shall be obligated 
to pay an Abbott Collaborator shall not exceed the royalty which ABBOTT shall 
be obligated to pay the Abbott Collaborator under its license agreement with 
the Abbott Collaborator.

     2.4  ABBOTT's license to Ship Product in Europe is effective 
beginning July 1, 1990. ABBOTT's license to Ship Product outside Europe is

     2.5  For the sole purposes of testing, demonstrating or evaluating 
non-Diagnostic Products, i.e., Products which are not Diagnostic Products, 
ABBOTT may deliver up to  *  * Units of each non-Diagnostic Product to End 
Users without such Units being considered Shipped according to the following:

          * in the first year after ABBOTT's first Shipment of such non-
          Diagnostic Product;

          * in the second year after ABBOTT's first Shipment of
          such non-Diagnostic Product;

          * in the third year after ABBOTT's first Shipment of such non-
          Diagnostic Product;

provided, however, that: a) no more than fifty percent (50%) of such delivered
Units of non-Diagnostic Product in any year shall be delivered to End Users in
any single Territory; and b) no such non-Diagnostic Product may be delivered to
End Users in Europe prior to July 1, 1990 or to End Users outside Europe prior
to either ABBOTT's being granted a product license from the FDA for any Product
or upon January 1, 1990, whichever happens first; and c) such delivered Units of
non-Diagnostic Product are delivered to such End Users free of charge. For the
purposes of this Paragraph 2.5, a non-Diagnostic Product will be construed to be
distinct from another non-Diagnostic

Product and hence trigger the availability of another  * *  Units under this
Paragraph if the Antigen or Antibody employed in such non-Diagnostic Product is
immunologically distinct from the Antigen or Antibody employed in such another
non-Diagnostic Product.

     2.6

     (a)  For the sole purposes of testing, demonstrating or evaluating
          Confirmatory Products, ABBOTT may deliver up to  *  Units of 
          each Confirmatory Product to End Users without such Units being
          considered Shipped provided that such Units of Confirmatory 
          Product are delivered to such End Users free of charge.

     (b)  For the sole purposes of testing, demonstrating or evaluating
          Diagnostic Products, excluding Confirmatory Products, ABBOTT may
          deliver up to *  * Units of each Diagnostic Product to End Users
          without such Units being considered Shipped according to the
          following:

          *  in the first year after ABBOTT's first Shipment of such 
          Diagnostic product;

          Diagnostic product;  

            *  in the third year after ABBOTT's first Shipment of such 
          Diagnostic product;

          provided, however, that: i) no more than fifty percent (50%) of
          such delivered Units of Diagnostic Product in any year shall be
          delivered to End Users in any single Territory; ii) no such
          Diagnostic Product may be delivered to End Users in Europe prior to
          July 1, 1990 or to End Users outside Europe prior to either
          ABBOTT's being granted a product license from the FDA for any

          Diagnostic Product will be construed to be distinct from another
          Confirmatory Product or Diagnostic Product and hence trigger the
          availability of another  *  or  *  

           *  Units under this Paragraph if the Antigen or Antibody employed 
          in such Diagnostic Product is immunologically distinct from the

     2.7  ABBOTT's license to deliver Product containing CHIRON's Antigen
designated C100-3 in European patent application publication no. 0 318 216 for
clinical trials is effective immediately and is limited to the number of Units
of Product as stated in Exhibit 2.2.

     2.8

     (a)  If at any time during the term hereof:

          (i)  ODS grants to a third party a license or any immunity from
               suit under Know-How allowing such third party to make, use
               or sell Product, by way of a direct license or settlement of
               litigation or a compulsory license or any other license
               grant; or

          (ii) a third party obtains an express or implied license under
               Know-How, to make, use or sell Product, by the purchase of a
               Raw Material not incorporated into a finished Product at the
               time of such purchase, and such third party is not subject
               to a contractual obligation with CHIRON not to make, use or
               sell Product;


<PAGE>

                                         -28-

               then ODS or CHIRON will notify ABBOTT and provide ABBOTT with 
               a summary of the terms of any such license or immunity from 
               suit. If ABBOTT deems the effect of any such license or 
               immunity from suit, when all the terms and conditions thereof 
               are taken together, to be financially more favorable than 
               those available to ABBOTT under this Agreement, ABBOTT may 
               elect, by written notice to ODS, to amend this Agreement, if 
               such implied license is not terminated or otherwise 
               substantially abated or proceedings initiated and diligently 
               pursued to cause such termination or abatement within ninety 
               (90) days of receipt by ODS or CHIRON of such written notice 
               from ABBOTT of ABBOTT's intent to amend this Agreement, to 
               give effect to all such terms and conditions so that the 
               terms of such agreement taken together are not substantially 
               more or less favorable than the terms of this Agreement as so 
               amended. In any proceedings initiated by CHIRON to abate any 
               such implied license, CHIRON shall use reasonable efforts to 
               recover any damages incurred by ABBOTT in connection with 
               such implied license, and shall, upon receipt of any such 
               recovery, pay to ABBOTT the amount, if any, by which such 
               recovery exceeds that portion of CHIRON's reasonable costs 
               and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees)

                                         -29-

               incurred in connection with such proceeding which is fairly 
               allocable to such recovery. Any amendment of this Agreement 
               pursuant to this Paragraph 2.8 (a) shall terminate, and this 
               Agreement shall be further amended to read in full as if such 
               amendment had not been made, if and when any such express or 
               implied license is terminated or otherwise abated.

          (b)  It is the intention of the parties that ABBOTT receive most 
               favored licensee status and treatment under this Agreement. 
               The parties recognize that commercial arrangements other than 
               a license may be to the advantage of ODS, such as 
               distributorship appointments. Accordingly, nothing herein 
               shall preclude ODS from marketing Products in the normal 
               course of business through distributors except as provided in 
               Paragraph 2.2(b) above; provided, however, that if ODS 
               appoints a distributor of the kind that is primarily engaged 
               in the development and/or manufacture and sale of diagnostic 
               products, ODS will notify ABBOTT and provide ABBOTT with a 
               summary of the terms of any such appointment. If ABBOTT deems 
               the effect of any such appointment, when all the terms and 
               conditions thereof are taken together, to be financially more 
               favorable than those available to

               ABBOTT under this Agreement, ABBOTT may elect, by written 
               notice to ODS, to amend this Agreement to give effect to all 
               such terms and conditions so that the terms of such agreement 
               taken together are not substantially more or less favorable 
               than the terms of this Agreement as so amended.

For the avoidance of doubt, the kind of distributor giving rise to the most
favored licensee status and treatment provisions of this Paragraph 2.8 are

     2.9  If either ODS or ABBOTT identifies an HCV technology owned or
controlled by a third party, such party shall disclose its knowledge of the
existence of such HCV technology to the other. If ODS decides to seek a license
from the third party to the HCV technology, ODS shall negotiate with such third
party in an attempt to obtain such a license, which license shall extend to the
benefit of ABBOTT at the same terms and conditions if so requested by ABBOTT.
In the event ODS decides not to seek such a license or is unsuccessful in
obtaining such a license, only then shall ABBOTT be entitled to attempt to seek
such a license for itself and, if ODS so requests, for the benefit of ODS at the
same terms and conditions. ODS or ABBOTT shall, if requested by the other party,
use all reasonable efforts to obtain such rights for the other parties. In no
event shall any party obtain rights for the other parties under terms and
conditions different from those terms obtained for itself unless expressly
agreed to by the parties.

                                    III. PAYMENTS

               discontinue manufacturing, the Challenger shall become the 
               Manufacturing Party for such Raw Material upon the later of 
               six (6) months after such election or upon the date the

               the FDA. If the Manufacturing Party elects to continue
               manufacturing, the Manufacturing Party shall pay the 
               Challenger's Manufacturing Cost for the production runs that 
               were agreed upon by the parties to determine the Challenge 
               Cost. In the event of a bona fide cost challenge made in

                    Base Cost, ABBOTT shall pay to ODS, in addition to the 
                    Calendar Quarter payments due in accordance with Paragraph 
                    3.28, (i) an increment for the Purchase Price Material of

                    which the sum of the Base Cost plus  *  the difference 
                    between the Challenge Cost and the Base Cost exceeds  *  of

                                        -61-

     (c)  It is the general intent of the parties hereto that CHIRON in the
          first instance shall be the Manufacturing Party of Raw Materials and
          that CHIRON shall, pursuant to the provisions set forth hereunder, use
          reasonable efforts to supply ABBOTT with its forecasted requirements
          and firm purchase orders for such Raw Materials. As the Manufacturing
          Party of a Raw Material, CHIRON shall be obliged to maintain a Safety
          Stock Inventory of such Raw Material. In the event that CHIRON does
          not agree to supply a Raw Material, ABBOTT may manufacture the Raw
          Material for itself; provided, however, that ABBOTT shall have a
          concomitant obligation to supply the same Raw Material to ODS if ODS
          so desires.

     4.2  For each Raw Material, CHIRON shall propose in writing reasonable
Release Specifications. Upon proposing such Release Specifications, CHIRON shall
be obligated to meet each Receiving Party's requirements of such Raw Material
subject to the provisions of this Article IV. Release Specifications for
CHIRON's Antigen designated C100-3 are listed on Exhibit 4.2 attached hereto and
incorporated herein.

     4.3


     (a)  With respect to the Release Specifications of each Raw Material which
          ODS is able to demonstrate can be used to manufacture Product, ABBOTT
          may propose modified Release Specifications for such Raw Material, in
          which case CHIRON may either: i) at ABBOTT's expense, alter its
          manufacturing processes to produce the Raw Material meeting the
          proposed, modified Release Specifications; or ii) allow ABBOTT to
          manufacture the Raw Material according to such proposed, modified
          Release Specifications.

     (b)  With respect to the Release Specifications of each Raw Material which
          ODS is not able to demonstrate can be used to manufacture Product,
          ABBOTT may propose modified Release Specifications for such Raw
          Material, provided ABBOTT certifies that such Raw Material
          manufactured according to such proposed, modified Release
          Specifications can be used to manufacture Product, in which case
          CHIRON may either: i) alter its manufacturing processes to produce the
          Raw Material meeting the proposed, modified Release Specifications; or
          ii) allow ABBOTT to manufacture the Raw Material according to such
          proposed, modified Release Specifications.

<PAGE>

                                        -63-

     (c)  Once ABBOTT commences manufacturing a Raw Material, ODS shall have the
          option of having ODS's requirements of the same Raw Material supplied
          to it by ABBOTT meeting the same proposed, modified Release
          Specifications and under supply, and delivery terms comparable to the
          terms of this Article IV and terms comparable to Articles IX and XIII
          below. ODS shall pay ABBOTT a supply price for any Raw Material
          supplied by ABBOTT hereunder equal to  **  of ABBOTT's Manufacturing
          Costs for the amounts of Raw Material so supplied.

     4.4  After delivery of a Raw Material by CHIRON, ABBOTT and CHIRON shall
negotiate in good faith and agree upon and establish in writing reasonable
Acceptance Criteria for the Raw Material based on actual testing of delivered
Raw Material. Until Acceptance Criteria are agreed upon, the Release
Specification shall be the Acceptance Criteria for the Raw Material.

     4.5  Effective April 1, 1990 for CHIRON's Antigen designated C100-3, and
effective as of the date of first commercial sale of Product containing a Raw
Material other than C100-3, CHIRON warrants that, with respect to C100-3 and
such other Raw Materials for which it is the Manufacturing Party, it

will use reasonable efforts to maintain a Safety Stock Inventory which shall
contain at least ABBOTT's ordered and forecasted requirements for the following
*  of each Raw Material being provided by CHIRON to ABBOTT hereunder. ODS and
ABBOTT each separately warrant that, with respect to a Raw Material for which it
is the Manufacturing Party, it will use reasonable efforts to maintain a Safety
Stock Inventory which shall contain at least the Receiving Party's ordered and
forecasted requirements for the following  *  of each Raw Material being
provided by ODS or ABBOTT as a Manufacturing Party hereunder.

     4.6  Except as otherwise provided hereunder the parties shall, before
Shipping a Unit of Product, agree upon in writing the Product Requirement of
the Product. Such Product Requirement shall be initially estimated by the
parties and thereafter revised, if necessary, to reflect actual manufacturing
experience of the Product.

     4.7  By September 1, 1989 ABBOTT shall provide ODS and CHIRON with:

     (a)  firm purchase orders for ABBOTT's requirements for each Raw Material
          to be delivered in September, October and November 1989; and

     (b)  a forecast of ABBOTT requirements for each Raw Material to be
          delivered in each of the next succeeding  *  .

On or before October 2, 1989, and the first work day of each month thereafter,
ABBOTT shall update its forecast by providing ODS and CHIRON with the following:

     (c)  an additional firm purchase order for the next month succeeding the
          last month covered by a firm purchase order; provided, however, that
          such additional purchase order for such month may not vary by plus or
          minus ten percent (10%) from the amount forecasted for such month in
          the last forecast; and  

     (d)  a forecast of ABBOTT requirements for each Raw Material in each of the
          next succeeding  *  *  ; provided, however, that the forecast for the
          first month shall not vary by plus or minus twenty percent (20%) from 
          the amount forecasted for that month in the last forecast and the 
          forecast for the second month shall not vary by plus or minus twenty-
          five percent (25%) from the amount forecasted for that month in the 
          last forecast.

                                     -66-

CHIRON shall deliver to ABBOTT, from Safety Stock Inventory on a first 
in/first out basis, all amounts of Raw Materials ordered by ABBOTT. ABBOTT 
may from time to time, place an order for Raw Materials that is greater than 
that permitted by the forecasting and firm purchase order limits set forth 
above. In such event, CHIRON shall use its reasonable efforts to fulfill such 
orders but shall not be so obligated and neither the failure to fill such 
orders nor any reduction in Safety Stock Inventory caused by filling such 
orders shall constitute a Delivery Default under Paragraph 4.9 on behalf of 
CHIRON.

     4.8

     (a)  CHIRON shall deliver to ABBOTT upon release of any lot of Raw Material
          to Safety Stock Inventory, a certificate of analysis stating the
          results of its Release Specification testing. The certificate of
          analysis shall be signed by a responsible person duly-authorized to
          certify the quality of the Raw Material.

     (b)  CHIRON shall provide to ABBOTT, with delivery of ordered Raw
          Materials, a representative sample of each lot of Raw Material
          included within the delivery.

<PAGE>

                                        -67-

          Upon ABBOTT's receipt of delivery of any Raw Material and the
          representative sample(s), ABBOTT will perform the agreed upon
          Acceptance Criteria tests to determine acceptability of each Raw
          Material lot.

     (c)  ABBOTT may reject any Raw Material which fails to meet the agreed upon
          Acceptance Criteria ("Rejected Raw Material") and shall, within
          forty-five (45) days after its receipt of any shipment of Rejected Raw
          Material, notify CHIRON in writing of any claim relating to any
          shortage in quantity of the shipment of Raw Material or any specific
          alleged non-conformity with Acceptance Criteria. In the event of such
          notice of rejection or shortage, CHIRON shall, if it concurs, replace
          the Rejected Raw Material or make up the shortage within forty-five
          (45) days of receiving such notice, at no cost to ABBOTT, and shall
          make arrangements with ABBOTT for the return, destruction or other
          disposal of any Rejected Raw Material, any charges therefore to be
          paid by CHIRON. If CHIRON disagrees with ABBOTT's determination of the
          alleged non-conformity, then an independent laboratory, mutually
          agreed upon by the parties, shall analyze for Acceptance Criteria a
          sample to be furnished by CHIRON of the identical lot(s) of allegedly
          non-conforming

<PAGE>

                                        -68-

          Raw Material delivered to ABBOTT, and both parties shall be bound by
          such laboratory's results of such analysis. The losing party shall pay
          the costs incurred by the laboratory and all other reasonable
          out-of-pocket costs incurred by the other party by reason of such
          allegation or actual nonconformance (but not any consequential 
          damages or lost profits). If CHIRON shall not have an identical batch
          for analysis, then ABBOTT shall provide a sample from the shipment for
          testing.

     (d)  If the independent laboratory confirms the delivery's non-conformance,
          CHIRON shall replace, at its expense, the Rejected Raw Material with
          conforming Raw Material within forty-five (45) days of its receipt of
          the report of the independent laboratory confirming the
          non-conformity.

     (e)  Replacement of the Rejected Raw Material by CHIRON pursuant to this
          Paragraph 4.8 shall represent the sole remedy of ABBOTT against
          CHIRON, ODS and their Affiliates for failure to deliver conforming
          goods except that failure to so replace non-conforming goods shall
          entitle ABBOTT to the alternate manufacturing provisions of Paragraph
          4.9.

     4.9

     (a)  Subject to the terms of this Article and notwithstanding Article XII
          hereof, if at any time the amount of a Raw Material in the Safety
          Stock Inventory is less than ABBOTT's ordered and forecasted
          requirements of such Raw Material for the following three (3) months
          (an "Inventory Shortfall"), CHIRON shall promptly give ABBOTT written
          notice of such Inventory Shortfall, in which case ODS shall have the
          right to manufacture, or have manufactured, such Raw Material if
          CHIRON does not within forty-five (45) days of such notice return the
          Safety Stock Inventory to an amount equal to ABBOTT's ordered and
          forecasted requirements of such Raw Material for the following three
          (3) months. ODS shall notify ABBOTT within such forty-five (45) day
          period of ODS's intention to manufacture or have manufactured such Raw
          Material. If under this Paragraph 4.9 ODS becomes the Manufacturing
          Party for any Raw Material, ODS shall have the right to manufacture,
          or have manufactured, the Raw Material for the longer of six (6)
          months or three (3) months after CHIRON notifies ODS that CHIRON has
          accumulated a Safety Stock Inventory of the Raw Material equal to
          ABBOTT's ordered and forecasted

          requirements of such Raw Material for the following three (3) months.
          If ODS elects not to manufacture or have manufactured the Raw
          Material, or if within six (6) months of CHIRON's notice of Inventory
          Shortfall CHIRON and ODS fail to accumulate among both parties a
          Safety Stock Inventory of the Raw Material equal to ABBOTT's
          forecasted requirements of such Raw Material for the following three
          (3) months, ABBOTT shall have the right to manufacture the Raw
          Material for the longer of six (6) months or until three (3) months
          after CHIRON and ODS notify ABBOTT that they have accumulated among
          both parties a Safety Stock Inventory of the Raw Material equal to
          ABBOTT's ordered and forecasted requirements of such Raw Material for
          the following three (3) months. If the Manufacturing Party is ABBOTT,
          CHIRON shall have the right to manufacture the Raw Material if ABBOTT
          does not within forty-five (45) days of such notice return the Safety
          Stock Inventory to an amount equal to ODS's forecasted requirements of
          such Raw Material for the following three (3) months. CHIRON shall
          notify ODS within such forty-five (45) day period of CHIRON's
          intention to manufacture or have manufactured such Raw Material. If
          under this Paragraph 4.9 CHIRON becomes the Manufacturing Party for
          any Raw Material, CHIRON

                                         -71-

          shall have the right to manufacture the Raw Material for the longer of
          six (6) months or three (3) months after ABBOTT notifies CHIRON that
          ABBOTT has accumulated a Safety Stock Inventory of the Raw Material
          equal to ODS's forecasted ordered and requirements of such Raw
          Material for the following three (3) months. If CHIRON elects not to
          manufacture or have manufactured the Raw Material, or if within six
          (6) months of ABBOTT's notice of Inventory Shortfall ABBOTT and CHIRON
          fail to accumulate among both parties a Safety Stock Inventory of the
          Raw Material equal to ODS's ordered and forecasted requirements of
          such Raw Material for the following three (3) months, ODS shall have
          the right to manufacture the Raw Material for the longer of six (6)
          months or three (3) months after CHIRON and ABBOTT notify ODS that
          CHIRON and ABBOTT have accumulated among both parties a Safety Stock
          Inventory of the Raw Material equal to ODS's ordered and forecasted
          requirements of such Raw Material for the following three (3) months.

     (b)  In the event of a Inventory Shortfall with respect to a Raw Material,
          all amounts of such Raw Material produced thereafter until the Safety
          Stock Inventory

          of such Raw Material contains the Receiving Party's ordered and
          forecasted amounts of such Raw Material for the following three (3)
          months, shall be allocated between ABBOTT and ODS in proportion to the
          total amount of such Raw Material purchased by each party during the
          Calendar Quarter preceding such Inventory Shortfall.

     4.10 To effectuate the alternate manufacturing provisions of Paragraph
4.9, CHIRON shall promptly upon ODS's request, with respect to any Raw Material
for which CHIRON is the Manufacturing Party, provide ODS with all information
and materials sufficient to enable ODS to prepare, file and prosecute with the
FDA an establishment license application for the Raw Material.  In the event ODS
becomes the Manufacturing Party with respect to the Raw Material pursuant to
Paragraph 4.9 or elects not to become the Manufacturing Party, CHIRON shall
provide ABBOTT with all information and materials sufficient to enable ABBOTT to
prepare, file and prosecute with the FDA an establishment license application
for the Raw Material.

     4.11 To effectuate the alternate manufacturing provisions of Paragraph
4.9, ABBOTT shall promptly upon CHIRON's request, with respect to any Raw
Material for which ABBOTT is the


<PAGE>

                                         -73-

Manufacturing Party, provide CHIRON with all information and materials
sufficient to enable CHIRON to prepare, file and prosecute with the FDA an
establishment license application for the Raw Material. In the event CHIRON
becomes the Manufacturing Party with respect to the Raw Material pursuant to
Paragraph 4.9 or elects not to become the Manufacturing Party, ABBOTT shall
provide ODS with all information and materials sufficient to enable ODS to
prepare, file and prosecute with the FDA an establishment license
application for the Raw Material.

     4.12 If either ABBOTT or ODS determine that a Raw Material with which it
is being supplied will no longer be utilized in any of its Products and so
notifies the Manufacturing Party, then the Manufacturing Party may elect to be
relieved of its obligation to supply any Receiving Party with such Raw Material
provided that such Manufacturing Party:

     (a)  notifies the Receiving Party of its intention to terminate its supply
          obligations with respect to the Raw Material; and

     (b)  provides the Receiving Party with the ability to manufacture the Raw
          Material, if so requested by the Receiving Party;


<PAGE>

                                         -74-

provided, however, that the Manufacturing Party will be obligated to supply the
Receiving Party with the Raw Material until after the earlier of:

     (c)  the Receiving Party's being granted an establishment license by the
          FDA for the Raw Material; or

     (d)  one (1) year from the date the Manufacturing Party notifies the
          Receiving Party of its intention to terminate its supply obligations
          with respect to the Raw Material.

     4.13 Within fifteen (15) days following the effective date of this
Agreement, CHIRON shall provide ABBOTT with fifty (50) milligrams of CHIRON's
Antigen designated C100-3. Thereafter, CHIRON shall provide ABBOTT with at least
one hundred (100) milligrams C100-3 per month until September 30, 1989.

     4.14

     (a)  With respect to all Raw Materials, the Manufacturing Party warrants
          that before supplying a Raw Material to a Receiving Party it will
          place (i) with a mutually agreed upon escrow agent a description of
          its process of the manufacture of each Raw Material in


<PAGE>

                                         -75-

          sufficiently clear and detailed terms that it can be readily followed
          and carried out by a trained biologist to make said Raw Material and,
          (ii) with a depository, all organisms containing the genetic material
          necessary to enable such biologist to so make said Raw Material.
          Furthermore, should the Manufacturing Party alter, modify or change
          its process for manufacturing said Raw Material, the Manufacturing
          Party agrees to amend the description in escrow and the material
          deposited to include such alteration, modification or change. The
          description held in escrow and the organisms held in a depository
          pursuant to this Paragraph, shall be available to a party only in the
          event and to the extent necessary to remedy a Inventory Shortfall
          pursuant to Paragraph 4.9 or further to Paragraphs 4.10, 4.11 and
          4.12. In such event, the Manufacturing Party shall, upon reasonable
          request, provide reasonable assistance to such party such as
          instructing appropriately trained personnel, as may be necessary to
          enable such party to manufacture said Raw Material. Title to any and
          all copies or embodiments of the description shall remain in the
          owner. Title to any and all organisms, progeny of organisms, and
          genetic material derived from organisms shall remain in the owner. No
          party shall


<PAGE>

                                         -76-

          allow, without prior written approval of the owner, use of the
          information in the description, the organism or any genetic material
          derived therefrom for any purpose other than carrying out the limited
          manufacturing rights granted pursuant to Paragraphs 4.9, 4.10, 4.11 or
          4.12. For example and without limitation, no party shall cause the
          alteration or mutation of the organism or its progeny, or the cloning
          or sequencing of any genetic material derived from the organism or its
          progeny without the prior written approval of the owner. In the event
          of any unauthorized use of the information in the description, the
          organism, its progeny or any genetic material derived therefrom, all
          resulting data, biological material, and/or inventions shall be the
          property of the owner of the original information, organism or genetic
          or biological material and shall be promptly and fully delivered to
          such owner.

     (b)  Upon termination by the Manufacturing Party of the limited
          manufacturing rights granted to a party pursuant to Paragraph 4.9,
          such party shall immediately cease to use the information supplied by
          the escrow agent and the organism and shall return such information
          and all copies or other embodiments


<PAGE>

                                         -77-

          thereof to the escrow agent, and shall return the organism, its
          progeny and any genetic material derived therefrom, to the depository
          or destroy it, at the owner's option.

     4.15 Raw Material supplied hereunder shall be F.O.B. Manufacturing Party's
facility.

     4.16 Title and risk of loss with respect to each Raw Material shall pass
to the Receiving Party upon acceptance of delivery at the Manufacturing Party's
facility.

     4.17

     (a)  Each Manufacturing Party warrants that no Raw Material supplied
          hereunder will at the time of acceptance of such delivery be
          adulterated or misbranded within the meaning of the Act, or within the
          meaning of any applicable federal, state, or local law in which the
          definitions or adulteration and misbranding are substantially similar
          to those contained in the Act, as such laws are constituted and
          effective at the time of delivery, or will be an article which may
          not, under the provisions of the Act, be introduced into interstate
          commerce. Each Manufacturing Party also


<PAGE>

                                         -78-

          warrants that the facilities to be used in the manufacture of Raw
          Material shall comply with all applicable federal, state, and local
          laws and regulations, including good manufacturing practices ("GMP's")
          as defined under the Act.

     (b)  Each party recognizes that ODS's and ABBOTT's use of Raw Material may
          be for sale as a federal government contractor to the U.S. government.
          Each party, as a Manufacturing Party and at the Receiving Party's
          request and expense, agrees to use reasonable efforts to comply with
          any additional legal and/or regulatory requirements not set forth in
          subparagraph (a) above that may apply to its provisions of Raw
          Material to ODS or ABBOTT as a subcontractor in a federal government
          contract.

Liability under this Paragraph 4.17 shall be limited to replacement of Raw
Material and shall not extend to damages incurred by a Receiving Party which are
of a consequential or incidental nature except for any third party product
liability.

     4.18 Each Receiving Party may once per Calendar Year, upon no less than
thirty (30) days written notice and during reasonable business hours, inspect
the Manufacturing Party's


<PAGE>

                                         -79-

facilities used in manufacturing Raw Material, the manufacturing procedures (for
compliance with GMP's and the Receiving Party's quality assurance requirements
only), as well as inventories of Raw Material, work-in-process, production
records and such other matters as may be relevant to proper quality assurance of
Raw Material to be delivered hereunder.

     4.19 Each Manufacturing Party shall permit authorized representatives of
the FDA (or any similar government agency of any other country) to inspect the
facilities used in the manufacture of Raw Material, and shall promptly notify
the Receiving Party when it has received notice of such inspection. The
Manufacturing Party shall advise the Receiving Party of the findings of any
such inspection and shall promptly take steps to correct any deficiencies found
by the FDA (or like agency of any other country) relating to the manufacture of
Raw Material.

                                   V.  COMPETITION

     5.1  It is the intent of the parties that the Purchase Price payable to ODS
by ABBOTT be reduced if ABBOTT encounters substantial third party competition
with respect to Products. Accordingly, subject to the provisions of this Article
V, the Purchase Price may be reduced if the requirements of Paragraphs



<PAGE>

                                         -80-

5.2 and 5.3 below related to ABBOTT's activities have been met primarily as a
result of ABBOTT's marketing efforts directed toward a third party competitor.
If, however, either ODS or CHIRON believes that the requirements of Paragraphs
5.2 or 5.3 below related to ABBOTT's activities have been met primarily as a
result of ABBOTT's marketing efforts directed toward reducing the Purchase Price
rather than toward a third party competitor, the Purchase Price shall not be
reduced unless resolved in accordance with the following sentence. Any dispute
among the parties over whether any reduction of Purchase Price under this
Paragraph 5.1 is appropriate by reason of the second sentence of this Paragraph
5.1 and which the parties fail to resolve themselves may only be resolved by
resort to Article XVIII of this Agreement, in which case the neutral shall be
charged with determining and reporting one (1) of the following: a) that ABBOTT
has met the requirements of Paragraph 5.2 or 5.3 with respect to its activities
in an attempt to reduce the Purchase Price and hence is not entitled to an
offset from the Purchase Price under this Article V; or b) that ABBOTT has met
the requirements of Paragraph 5.2 or 5.3 with respect to its activities as a
response to third party competition and hence is entitled to an offset from the
Purchase Price under this Article V.

     5.2  During each Calendar Quarter after the  *  anniversary of the
effective date of this Agreement, ABBOTT shall be entitled to an offset against
the Purchase Price if all of the following conditions are satisfied in a
Territory (other than Territory VII) with respect to a  *  or  *  (such
Territory and Product are hereinafter respectively referred to as the "Affected
Territory" and the "Affected Product"):

     (i)   The Affected Product is being Shipped by ABBOTT in the Affected
           Market;

     (ii)  The Affected Product is not a  *  ;

     (iii) a third party (other than ABBOTT, ODS, an Affiliate of either or a
           customer of either) is selling a HCV screening test to Donor Centers
           in the Affected Territory which is used primarily for the same
           purpose as the Affected Product (hereinafter referred to as the
           "Third Party Product");

     (iv)  the Third Party Competition Price to Donor Centers in the Affected
           Territory is lower than the Base Price;

     (v)   sales of the Third Party Product in the Affected Territory during
           each of the previous two (2) consecutive Calendar Quarters represent
           at least a  *  Unit market share, determined by an independent
           auditor at ABBOTT's expense, for each such Calendar Quarter of the
           Affected Market for products primarily utilized for the same purpose;

     (vi)  the ABBOTT Selling Price for the Affected Product is less than the
           Base Price; and

    (vii)  ABBOTT's overall market share in the Calendar Quarter for Non-HCV
           Screening Tests delivered to Donor Centers in the Affected Territory
           does not increase by more than  *  on an aggregate Unit basis for all
           such Non-HCV Screening Tests over the immediate previous Calendar
           Quarter.

If all the foregoing conditions are satisfied, then ABBOTT shall determine the
Price Differential for the Affected Product in the Affected Market.

     5.3  During each Calendar Quarter after the  *  anniversary of the
effective date of this Agreement, ABBOTT shall be entitled to an offset against
the Purchase Price if

                                         -83-

all of the following conditions are satisfied in a Territory (other than
Territory VII) with respect to a  *  or  *  (such Territory and Product are
hereinafter respectively referred to as the "Affected Territory" and the
"Affected Product"):

     (i)  The Affected Product is being Shipped by ABBOTT in the Affected
          Market;

     (ii) The Affected Product is not a  *  ;

    (iii) a third party (other than ABBOTT, ODS, an Affiliate of either or a
          customer of either) is selling a HCV screening test to Plasma Centers
          in the Affected Territory which is used primarily for the same
          purpose as the Affected Product (hereinafter referred to as the
          "Third Party Product");

     (iv) the Third Party Competition Price to Plasma Centers in the Affected
          Territory is lower than the Base Price;

     (v)  sales of the Third Party Product in the Affected Territory during
          each of the previous two (2) consecutive Calendar Quarters represent
          at least a  *  Unit market share, determined by an

          independent auditor at ABBOTT's expense, for each such Calendar
          Quarter of the Affected Market for products primarily utilized for
          the same purpose;

     (vi) the ABBOTT Selling Price for the Affected Product is less than the
          Base Price; and

    (vii) ABBOTT's overall market share in the Calendar Quarter for Non-HCV
          Screening Tests delivered to Plasma Centers in the Affected Territory
          does not increase by more than  *  on an aggregate Unit basis for all
          such Non-HCV Screening Tests over the immediate previous Calendar
          Quarter.

If all the foregoing conditions are satisfied, then ABBOTT shall determine the
Price Differential for the Affected Product in the Affected Market.

     5.4  The amount of the Purchase Price offset shall be determined by
deducting from the Purchase Price, calculated pursuant to Paragraphs 3.2-3.22 of
this Agreement, the Price Differential determined according to either Paragraph
5.2 or 5.3. In no event shall the Price Differential exceed the Net Purchase
Price.

     5.5  In any Calendar Quarter the percentage change in ABBOTT's overall Unit
market share for Non-HCV Screening Tests required by condition (vii) of
Paragraphs 5.2 or 5.3 shall be calculated by dividing the difference between:
(a) the market share of Non-HCV Screening Tests held by ABBOTT in the Calendar
Quarter immediately prior to the Calendar Quarter in which a third party first
began selling its Third Party Product in the Affected Market; and (b) the market
share of Non-HCV Screening Tests held by ABBOTT in such Calendar Quarter; by (c)
the market share of Non-HCV Screening Tests held by ABBOTT in such Calendar
Quarter, and multiplying the quotient thereof by one hundred (100). In lieu of
measuring Unit market share, ABBOTT may at its election satisfy condition (vii)
of Paragraphs 5.2 or 5.3 by demonstrating that the total Units of all Non-HCV
Screening Tests Shipped in the Affected Market during such Calendar Quarter
have not increased by more than  *  *  over the total Units of all Non-HCV
Screening Tests Shipped in the Affected Market in the Calendar Quarter
immediately prior to the Calendar Quarter that a third party first began selling
its Third Party Product in the Affected Market. Any calculation under this
Paragraph 5.5 shall not include any Units of a Non-HCV Screening Test sold in a
Territory during the first two (2) Calendar Quarters in which such Non-HCV
Screening Test is first sold by ABBOTT in the Territory.

     5.6  To invoke a Purchase Price offset under Paragraph 5.2 or 5.3, the
parties shall agree upon the independent auditor, as well as the types and
methods of data acquisition to be utilized by such auditor, for quantifying the
prices, market shares, Units and all other determinations required by Paragraphs
5.2, 5.3 or 5.5. If the parties fail to agree upon the choice of an independent
auditor and the types and methods of data acquisition, the parties shall resolve
such issues in accordance with Article XVIII of this Agreement, in which case
the neutral shall be charged with selecting such independent auditor and/or
types and methods of data acquisition.

     5.7  Once a Third Party Product captures at least a  * *  ) market share 
of an Affected Market pursuant to clause (v) of Paragraphs 5.2 or 5.3, such 
Third Party Product shall be deemed to continue to hold a  *  market share of 
the Affected Market until the Third Party Product is completely withdrawn 
from the Affected Market.

     5.8  In the event of a dispute between the parties with respect to an 
offset of Purchase Price under this Article V, the parties shall resolve such 
dispute in accordance with Article XVIII; provided, however, that until such 
dispute is resolved ABBOTT shall pay ODS the Purchase Price determined 
according to Paragraphs 3.2-3.22.

     5.9  All invoices and prices used in any calculation or determination under
this Article V shall be converted, before such calculation or determination is
made, to U.S. dollars at the same rate of exchange for identical time periods,
such rate of exchange being the rate of exchange used by ABBOTT in the normal
course of its business during the time periods to which this Article V pertains
unless such independent auditor determines ABBOTT's rate of exchange to be
inequitable, in which case such independent auditor shall equitably determine
the rate of exchange to be used.

     5.10  With respect to third party competition in any country included
within Territory VII, ABBOTT may request a Purchase Price offset in any such
country because of such third party competition. If ODS and CHIRON agree that
such Purchase Price offset is genuinely warranted in such country, ODS and
CHIRON may agree to a Purchase Price offset in such country; provided, however,
that nothing hereunder shall obligate ODS or CHIRON to offset the Purchase Price
in such country. Any issue concerning Purchase Price offset in any country
included within Territory VII shall be resolved among the parties and shall not
be subject to the provisions of Article XVIII.

     5.11  In no event shall the Price Differential exceed  *  (U.S.  *  for any
Affected Product unless:

     6.1  If, with respect to Territories I-VI, ABBOTT becomes aware of third
party sales of Product which represent a substantial aggregate infringement of a
Patent Right (greater than  *  of ABBOTT's Units Of Product of Primary Products,
Screening Products, or Diagnostic Products in such Territory) by one or more
third parties in such Territory, ABBOTT will promptly notify ODS and CHIRON.
Should ODS or CHIRON fail to file suit for infringement within one hundred
twenty (120) days after ODS or CHIRON promptly notifies the infringer(s) of the
infringement, ABBOTT shall be entitled to reduce the Purchase Price with respect
to corresponding  Primary Products, Screening Products or Diagnostic Products in
such Territory by  *  of the Net Purchase Price. Said reduced Purchase Price
shall continue to be the prevailing Purchase Price with respect to such Primary
Products, Screening Products or Diagnostic Products in such Territory until said
infringement is abated to a level that no longer constitutes substantial
aggregate infringement and, thereafter, the Purchase Price shall revert to the
full Purchase Price in effect prior to the reduction hereunder. In the event of
any recovery of damages as a result of such infringement, ODS shall deduct all
legal expenses incurred as a result of said infringement from said recovery and
shall pay ABBOTT one third (1/3) of the remainder.

     8.1

     (a)  The term of this Agreement shall be for the later of seventeen (17)
          years from the effective date hereof or the date on which the last
          Patent Right expires which is licensed to ABBOTT hereunder and which
          includes a Valid Claim which would, but for such license, be
          infringed by ABBOTT's making, using or selling a Product.

     (b)  Paragraph 8.1(a) above notwithstanding, this Agreement with respect
          to the European Economic Community shall terminate in each member
          country seventeen (17) years from the effective date hereof or on the
          expiration


<PAGE>

                                         -92-

          date of the last to expire Patent Right in such member country based
          upon a patent application pending as of the effective date of this
          Agreement, whichever is later; provided, however, that prior to the
          termination of this Agreement in the first member country in which it
          would otherwise terminate pursuant to the foregoing, ABBOTT may in
          its discretion elect by written notice to ODS and CHIRON to extend
          this Agreement as to all such member countries for an additional term
          which shall expire on a country-by-country basis on the expiration
          date of the last to expire Patent Right existing in such member
          country as of the date of such extension.

     (c)  After seventeen (17) years from the effective date of this Agreement,
          the provisions of Articles III and IV shall only apply to Products
          which are Patent Protected by a Valid Claim of a Patent Right and
          which are not Patented Protected by a Valid Claim of an ABBOTT Patent
          Right, wherein such Valid Claim of the ABBOTT Patent Right has a
          Priority Date earlier than the Priority Date of such Valid Claim of
          the Patent Right.

                                         -93-

     8.2  Each party has the right to terminate this Agreement, and all licenses
granted hereunder, if

     (a)  the other party defaults in the performance of any of its material
          obligations hereunder and such default is not corrected within sixty
          (60) days after receiving written notice of such default, or

     (b)  the other party becomes bankrupt or insolvent or its business is 
          placed in the hands of a receiver, assignee, or trustee.

     Such right to terminate shall not be the exclusive remedy of the
non-defaulting party and, by exercising such right, the non-defaulting party
shall not waive any other rights or remedies it may have under this Agreement or
otherwise. Resort to any remedy by a party hereto under this Paragraph 8.2 shall
not limit the party from exercising any other rights it may otherwise be
entitled to by law.

                   IX.  REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS

     9.7  ABBOTT warrants that Exhibit 9.7 lists all U.S. patent applications

          that any such claims would be unjustified and meritless, there is
          nothing that ODS can do to prevent  *  from making such baseless
          allegations.  Because there exists the possibility that  *  may

     9.12 In the event ODS and ABBOTT become licensees pursuant to an agreement
entered into in  accordance with Paragraph 2.9 and either ODS's or ABBOTT's
license thereunder is subsequently terminated, the terminated licensee shall use
all reasonable efforts to prevent termination of the other party's license.

     9.13 CHIRON and ODS hereby covenant in the event of the termination of any
agreement between ODS and CHIRON providing for a license of Know-How to ODS,
such termination shall not reduce or terminate the license to ABBOTT granted
under the terms of this Agreement including ABBOTT's right to use any portion of
the Know-How licensed by CHIRON TO ODS.

     9.14 CHIRON covenants that it will prosecute its patent applications
related to HCV in a manner intended to achieve the broadest and most effective
patent protection practical in CHIRON's sole judgement.

     10.1 The parties hereto shall not assign their rights or obligations under
this Agreement, other than merely the right to be paid, without prior written

                             XI.  INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS

     11.1 The parties hereto shall not be deemed to be partners, joint
venturers or each other's agents, and neither shall have the right to act on
behalf of the other except as expressly provided hereunder or otherwise
expressly agreed to in writing.

                                 XII.  FORCE MAJEURE

     12.1 The parties hereto shall not be liable for failure to perform as
required by any provision of this Agreement where such failure results from a
force majeure beyond such party's control. In the event of any delay
attributable to a force majeure, the time for performance affected thereby shall
be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay, except
that this Paragraph 12.1 shall not affect any of the Inventory Shortfall
provisions under Article IV.

                                   XIII.  INDEMNITY

     13.1 Except as hereinafter provided, a Receiving Party shall indemnify
and hold a Manufacturing Party harmless against any and all liabilities,
damages, losses, costs, and expenses, including attorneys' fees, arising from a
suit or claim by a


<PAGE>

                                        -103-

third party alleging a product liability cause of action based on the use,
manufacture or sale of any Product by the Receiving Party, its Affiliates
including without limitation any product liability arising from the inherent
properties of any Product, the use by the Receiving Party of any Raw Material,
the development or manufacture of any Product by the Receiving Party, the use by
the Receiving Party or its Affiliates of Know-How, or the use of any Product
manufactured, used or sold by the Receiving Party or its Affiliates by any human
being regardless of whether such use was contemplated by the parties.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Receiving Party need not defend, indemnify and
hold a Manufacturing Party harmless against liabilities finally determined to
have arisen solely and directly from any negligence of the Manufacturing Party
relating to the manufacture or sale of any Raw Material that proximately causes
harm to the Receiving Party or any third party due to the use of contaminated,
non-conforming, adulterated, or mislabeled Raw Material supplied by the
Manufacturing Party when such contamination, non-conformity, adulteration, or
mislabeling could not reasonably have been discovered by the Receiving Party
prior to its use. Nothing herein contained shall require any party hereto to
indemnify another for lost profits.


<PAGE>

                                        -104-

     13.2 In order for this indemnification to apply, the Manufacturing Party
must promptly notify the Receiving Party upon receipt of any notice of any claim
or lawsuit. The Receiving Party may, at its discretion and cost, defend such
claims or suits. Assuming that the Receiving Party has chosen not to defend the
suit, then the Manufacturing Party may settle any such claim or suit, but not
without the prior consent of the Receiving Party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

                            XIV. PUBLICITY AND DISCLOSURE

     14.1 Unless mutually agreed upon by the parties, no party shall originate
any publicity, news release or other public announcement, written or oral,
whether to the public press, to stockholders or otherwise, relating to this
Agreement, to any amendment hereto or to performance hereunder, save only such
announcement as in the opinion of legal counsel to the party making such
announcement is required by law to be made. The party making any such
announcement shall give the other parties an opportunity to review the form of
the announcement before it is made. The parties acknowledge that CHIRON may file
this Agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to
applicable regulations.

     17.1 This Agreement shall be construed according to the laws of the State

                              XVIII. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

     18.1

     (a)  DISPUTES. The parties recognize that a bona fide dispute as to 
          certain matters may from time to time arise during the term of 
          this Agreement which relate to any party's rights and/or 
          obligations hereunder. In the event of the occurrence of such a 
          dispute, any party may, by written notice to the other parties, 
          have such dispute referred to their respective officers designated 
          below or their successors, for attempted resolution by good faith 
          negotiations within thirty (30) days after such notice is received. 
          Said designated officers are as follows:


<PAGE>

                                        -107-

          For Abbott - President, Diagnostic Division
          For ODS    - President or Chairman
          For Chiron - President

          In the event the designated officers are not able to resolve such 
          dispute within such thirty-day period, any party may invoke the 
          provisions of Paragraph (b) below within such thirty day period.

     (b)  ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Any dispute, controversy or claim 
          arising out of or relating to the validity, construction, 
          enforceability or performance of this Agreement shall be settled by 
          binding Alternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") in the manner 
          described below:

          (i)  If a party intends to begin an ADR to resolve a dispute, such 
               party shall provide written notice (the "ADR Request") to 
               counsel for such other party or parties informing such other 
               party or parties of such intention and the issues to be 
               resolved. From the date of the ADR Request and until such time 
               as any matter has been finally settled by ADR, the running of 
               the time periods contained in Section 8.2 as to


<PAGE>

                                        -108-

               which party must cure a breach of this Agreement shall be 
               suspended as to the subject matter of the dispute.

          (ii) Within ten (10) business days after the receipt of the ADR 
               Request, the other party or parties may, by written notice 
               to the counsel for the party initiating ADR, add additional 
               issues to be resolved and may add as a party to the ADR a 
               party to this Agreement who was not named as a respondent. 
               Within twenty (20) business days following the receipt of the 
               ADR Request a neutral shall be selected by the then-President 
               of the Center for Public Resources ("CPR"), 680 Fifth Ave., 
               New York, New York 10019. The neutral shall be an individual 
               who shall preside in resolution of any disputes between the 
               parties. The neutral selected shall be a member of the 
               Judicial Panel of the CPR and shall not be an employee, 
               director or shareholder of any party or of an Affiliate
               of any party. Any party shall have ten (10) business days from 
               the date the neutral is selected to object in good faith to the
               selection of that person. If any party


<PAGE>

                                        -109-

               makes such an objection, the then-President of the CPR shall, as
               soon as possible thereafter, elect another neutral under the same
               conditions set forth above. This second selection shall be final.

         (iii) No later than ninety (90) business days after selection, the
               neutral shall hold a hearing to resolve each of the issues
               identified by the parties and shall render the award as
               expeditiously thereafter as possible but in no event more than
               thirty (30) days after the close of hearings. In making the award
               the neutral shall rule on each disputed issue and, except as
               provided in Paragraph 5.1 above, shall adopt in whole or in part
               the proposed ruling of one of the parties on each disputed issue.

          (iv) It is the intention of the parties that discovery, although
               permitted as described herein, will be extremely limited except 
               in exceptional circumstances. The neutral shall permit such 
               limited discovery necessary for an understanding of any 
               legitimate issue raised in


<PAGE>

                                        -110-

               the ADR, including the production of documents. Each party shall
               be permitted but not required to take the deposition of not 
               more than five (5) persons, each such deposition not to exceed 
               six (6) hours in length. If the neutral believes that 
               exceptional circumstances exist, and additional discovery is 
               necessary for a full and fair resolution of the issues, he may 
               order such additional discovery as he deems necessary. At the 
               hearing the parties may present testimony (either by live 
               witness or deposition) and documentary evidence. The hearing 
               shall be held at such place as agreed upon by the parties or 
               if they are unable to agree at a place designated
               by the neutral. Each party shall have the right to be 
               represented by counsel. The neutral shall have sole discretion 
               with regard to the admissibility of any evidence and all other 
               matters relating to the conduct of the hearing. The neutral 
               shall, in rendering his decision, apply the substantive law of 
               New Jersey and without giving effect to its principles of 
               conflicts of law, and without giving effect to any rules or 
               laws relating to

                                        -111-

               arbitration. The decision of the neutral shall be final and not
               appealable, except in cases of fraud or bad faith on the part of
               the neutral or any party to the ADR proceeding in connection with
               the conduct of such proceedings.

          (v)  At least fifteen (15) business days prior to the date set for the
               hearing, each party shall submit to each other party and the
               neutral a list of all documents on which such party intends to 
               rely in any oral or written presentation to the neutral and a 
               list of all witnesses, if any, such party intends to call at 
               such hearing and a brief summary of each witnesses testimony. 
               At least five (5) business days prior to the hearing, each 
               party must submit to the neutral and serve on each other party 
               a proposed ruling on each issue to be resolved. Such writing 
               shall be limited to representing the proposed rulings, shall 
               contain no argument or analysis of the facts or issues, and 
               shall be limited to not more than fifty (50) pages. Not more 
               than five (5) business days following the close of
               hearings, the parties may each submit post hearing briefs


<PAGE>

                                        -112-

               to the neutral addressing the evidence and issues to be 
               resolved. Such post hearing briefs shall not be more than 
               ten (10) pages.

     (c)  COSTS AND FEES. The neutral shall determine the proportion in which
          the parties shall pay the costs and fees of the ADR. Each party shall
          pay its own costs (including, without limitation, attorneys fees) and
          expenses in connection with such ADR.

     (d)  CONFIDENTIALITY. The ADR proceeding shall be confidential and the
          neutral shall issue appropriate protective orders to safeguard each
          parties' Confidential Information. Except as required by law, no party
          shall make (or instruct the neutral to make) any public announcement
          with respect to the proceedings or decision of the neutral without the
          prior written consent of each other party. The existence of any
          dispute submitted to ADR, and the award of the neutral, shall be kept
          in confidence by the parties and the neutral, except as required in
          connection with the enforcement of such award or as otherwise
          required by applicable law.

                                        -113-

     (e)  AWARD. Any judgment upon the award rendered by the neutral may be 
          entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

                           XIX. SUPPLY OF HTLV-1 AND HIV-1

     19.1 ABBOTT agrees to supply ODS with ODS's manufacturing requirements of
HTLV-1 and HIV-1 reagents at terms to be negotiated in good faith.

                                  XX.  DISCLOSURE OF

                      ABBOTT COLLABORATOR UNPATENTED TECHNOLOGY

     20.1 Prior to entering into an agreement with an Abbott Collaborator after
the effective date of this Agreement, ABBOTT shall notify ODS and CHIRON of its
intent to enter into such relationship and shall disclose to ODS and CHIRON the
material business terms of such proposed agreement. ABBOTT shall use all
reasonable efforts to negotiate as low as possible a royalty rate, with respect
to the manufacture, use or sale of Products, with such Abbott Collaborator and
extend the benefit of such agreement to both ABBOTT and ODS under the same
terms and conditions. ABBOTT shall pay any royalty due the Abbott Collaborator
for the use of any Abbott Collaborator Unpatented Technology with respect to its
Product or Antigen or Antibodies manufactured by any Manufacturing Party for
ABBOTT.


<PAGE>

                                        -114-

     20.2 ABBOTT shall, whenever it receives ABBOTT Collaborator Unpatented
Technology which ABBOTT reasonably believes to be of scientific or business
importance or interest, so notify ODS and CHIRON that such Abbott Collaborator
Unpatented Technology exists but ABBOTT shall not disclose any Abbott
Collaborator Unpatented Technology to either ODS or CHIRON unless ODS and CHIRON
request in writing that such disclosure be made or unless ABBOTT first notifies
ODS and CHIRON that ABBOTT intends to disclose such Abbott Collaborator
Unpatented Technology and receives from ODS and CHIRON written direction to
proceed with such disclosure. ODS and CHIRON may elect to receive disclosure of
such Abbott Collaborator Unpatented Technology for evaluation purposes only for
six (6) months. Within six (6) months of such disclosure ODS and CHIRON may
notify ABBOTT in writing of their election to include such Abbott Collaborator
Unpatented Technology within the definition of Abbott Know-How. ODS or CHIRON
shall pay to ABBOTT any royalty due the Abbott Collaborator with respect to the
manufacture, sale or use of their Products or Antigens or Antibodies
manufactured by any Manufacturing Party for ODS for use of such Abbott
Collaborator Unpatented Technology included within Abbott Know-How. ABBOTT shall
not be deemed to have breached any obligation under this Agreement if its
failure to fulfill its obligation was caused solely by its inability to disclose
Abbott Collaborator Unpatented


<PAGE>

                                        -115-

Technology because either ODS or CHIRON have elected not to receive such Abbott
Collaborator Unpatented Technology. If ABBOTT discloses any Abbott Collaborator
Unpatented Technology to ODS or CHIRON without such party's written permission,
ABBOTT shall indemnify and hold ODS and CHIRON harmless against any and all
liabilities, damages, losses, costs, royalties, and expenses, including
attorneys' fees, arising from a suit or claim by a third party alleging a cause
of action based on such disclosure or the use of such Abbott Collaborator
Unpatented Technology by ODS or CHIRON, including the manufacture, sale or use
of any Antigen, Antibody or Product by ODS or CHIRON based upon the use of such
Abbott Collaborator Unpatented Technology. The parties shall agree upon a method
of controlling any such claim that shall protect their respective interests but
in no event shall any party settle such claim without ABBOTT's written consent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, ABBOTT shall not be obligated to indemnify ODS or
CHIRON for the continued use of any Abbott Collaborator Unpatented Technology
beyond a reasonable period of time after ABBOTT gives ODS and CHIRON written
notice to discontinue the use of any technology that ABBOTT reasonably believes
may constitute Abbott Collaborator Unpatented Technology. If ABBOTT gives such
notice, ODS or CHIRON may elect to discontinue the manufacture for ABBOTT of any
Raw Material that uses such Abbott Collaborator Unpatented Technology.

                                    XXI. LABELING

     21.1 Subject to any applicable law or regulation to the contrary, ABBOTT
agrees to display in a reasonably noticeable manner on its Product packaging a
notice that such Product is manufactured and sold by ABBOTT under license from
Ortho Diagnostic Systems Inc. and Chiron Corporation.

                          XXII. NOTIFICATION AND REFORMATION

     22.1 NOTIFICATION

     If CHIRON or ODS shall file a notification (the "Notification") with the
Competition Directorate of the Commission of the European Communities (the 
"Commission") in accordance with the regulations established by the Commission,
ABBOTT shall execute all documents reasonably required by CHIRON or ODS and
shall otherwise reasonably cooperate in connection with the Notification. CHIRON
and/or ODS shall bear all costs incurred by CHIRON and/or ODS relating to the
Notification.

     22.2 REFORMATION

     If, at any time during the term of this Agreement, any of the parties
receives a request or other communication from the Commission with respect to
the Notification (the "Request"), such party shall promptly inform the other
parties of the


<PAGE>

                                        -117-

nature of the Request and the parties shall cooperate as necessary to respond to
the Request. In the event that the Request requires that, unless the parties
undertake to modify this Agreement in certain respects, the Commission considers
this Agreement will or may violate the provisions of Articles 85 and 86 of the
Treaty of Rome, then the parties shall amend this Agreement by making those
minimal modifications necessary to satisfy the concerns of the Commission as set
forth in the Request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that
ABBOTT shall retain its license rights within the European Community.

                                   AGREEMENT

    This AGREEMENT, dated as of January 7, 1994, is made by and between CHIRON
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Chiron"), and CEPHALON, INC., a Delaware
corporation ("Cephalon").  Chiron and Cephalon are sometimes referred to 
herein as "Collaborators" and individually as a "Collaborator".

                                  BACKGROUND

    A.   Cephalon possesses certain intellectual property rights (including a 
license from Cephalon Clinical Partners, L.P. ("CCP")) relating to uses of 
insulin-like growth factor 1 ("IGF-1") for certain neurological diseases, 
disorders and conditions (such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ("ALS") and 
peripheral neuropathies) and its production and use as a therapeutic agent in 
man.  Cephalon has an ongoing clinical development program relating to IGF-1 
as a therapeutic agent for ALS and certain peripheral neuropathies.  Cephalon 
wishes to have the benefit of Chiron's expertise in the development and 
production of IGF-1 for neurological disorders.

    B.   Chiron possesses certain intellectual property rights (including a 
license from Ciba-Geigy Ltd. ("CIBA")) relating to uses of IGF-1 for certain 
neurological diseases, disorders and conditions (such as diabetic 
neuropathy), and its production and use as a therapeutic agent in man.  
Chiron wishes to have the benefit of Cephalon's expertise in the development 
of therapeutic compounds in the neurological field.

    C.   Chiron and Cephalon have substantial development programs relating 
to their respective uses of IGF-1.

    D.  Chiron possesses certain intellectual property rights and is 
otherwise developing other compounds and methodologies that offer promise of 
therapeutic application in neurological applications, together with and 
independent of IGF-1.

    E.   Cephalon intends to develop a sales and marketing expertise focusing 
principally on the neurology market.

    F.   Cephalon and Chiron believe that a joint development program that 
optimizes the contributions of each of Cephalon and Chiron will accelerate 
the beneficial application of IGF-1 and other compounds to address important 
unmet needs for therapeutic products applicable to neurological diseases, 
disorders and conditions and will be in their mutual and individual best 
interests.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained 
herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as 
follows:

(the "JV"), shall be established in a written amendment or supplement to this 
Agreement signed by Cephalon and Chiron.

    SECTION 2.3  MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE.

         (a)  ESTABLISHMENT.  The Collaboration, whether conducted directly 
by Cephalon and Chiron or through the JV, will be managed by a Management 
Committee, which is hereby established to carry out the business of the 
Collaboration and implement the provisions of this Agreement.

         (b)  AUTHORITY.  The Management Committee shall exercise such powers 
as it deems necessary or desirable to further the purposes of the 
Collaboration in the mutual best


                                      -8-


<PAGE>


interests of the Collaborators, except to the extent that such powers are 
reserved to the Collaborators by this Agreement. In particular, the 
Management Committee shall be responsible for (i) approving an annual 
development plan and budget for the Collaboration, (ii) reviewing the 
performance (including the cost-effectiveness) of each Collaborator's and the 
JV's activities, (iii) establishing the accounting methodologies for Costs, 
Allowable Expenses and the calculation of Operating Profits in accordance 
with paragraph (c) below, and (iv) approving acquisitions of technology from 
third parties or the Collaborators pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof.

         (c)  ACCOUNTING METHODOLOGY.  Initially, each Collaborator shall 
apply its internal cost accounting principles and methodology in determining 
Costs incurred with respect to the Collaboration, which shall be consistent 
with generally accepted accounting principles and with the principles and 
methodology applied by the Collaborator to its other projects and reasonably 
acceptable to the Management Committee. The Management Committee shall review 
the internal cost accounting principles and methodology of the Collaborators 
and as soon as practicable, but in no event later than receipt of the first 
Regulatory Approval of a Product in a Major Market, shall establish a 
statement of cost accounting principles and methodology, consistent with 
generally accepted accounting principles, to be used by each Collaborator and 
the JV in recording and reporting Costs as Allowable Expenses and calculating 
Operating Profits under this Agreement. The approved statement shall be 
attached to this Agreement as SCHEDULE VI. Any disagreement with respect to 
the development of the principles and methodologies to be set forth in 
SCHEDULE VI shall be resolved by a reputable firm of independent public 
accountants selected by the Collaborators.

    SECTION 2.4  DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE.  A Development Committee is hereby 
established under the supervision of the Management Committee to monitor all 
research and development activities of the Collaboration, to carry out all 
other obligations assigned to it under this Agreement or by the Management

<PAGE>


a majority of each party's designated members of the applicable Committee.  
Minutes reflecting actions taken at meetings shall be maintained with the 
books and records of the Collaboration and shall be distributed to the 
Collaborators upon request.

    SECTION 2.10  ADDITIONAL COMMITTEES.  The Management Committee may, from 
time to time, delegate specific powers to special-purpose committees of the 
Management Committee, other than the Development Committee.  Any additional 
committees, including the Marketing Committee to be established under Section 
4.1 shall be constituted and shall operate in accordance with the procedures 
of this Article 2.

    SECTION 2.11  EXCLUSION FROM ALLOWABLE EXPENSES.  All costs and expenses

unless specified in SCHEDULE VI or authorized by the Management Committee.

    SECTION 2.12  COOPERATION OF COLLABORATORS.  Each Collaborator shall 
furnish to the Management Committee or other applicable committee, subject to 
the confidentiality obligations specified in Article 12 hereof, all 
information that is reasonably required for purposes of this Agreement.

    SECTION 2.13  DUTIES OF COLLABORATORS.  Each Collaborator shall perform 
its functions under this Agreement in a manner it believes in good faith to 
be consistent with the intention of the parties in entering into this 
Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to create a fiduciary duty of
one Collaborator to the other, nor shall it be deemed to require either 
Collaborator to expend funds or commit resources in excess of those approved 
by the Management Committee.

                 ARTICLE 3 - RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

    SECTION 3.1  PRIORITIES; PLANS; BUDGETS.

    (a)  PRIORITIES.  The Development Committee, subject to the approval of 
the Management Committee, shall establish the research, development and 
regulatory strategies related to the Products in the Field.  The initial 
priority of the Collaboration shall be assigned to the development of IGF-1 
for use in treating ALS and peripheral neuropathies.

    (b)  ANNUAL PLAN AND BUDGET.  Attached as Schedule V hereto is the 
initial development budget for each Collaborator's research and development 
activities (including third party


                                     -11-


<PAGE>


subcontractors) related to Products in the Major Markets for the period from 
October 1, 1993 through December 31, 1993.  For each calendar year beginning 
January 1, 1994, the Development Committee shall prepare and submit to the 
Management Committee for approval an annual development plan and budget for 
Products in the Major Markets.  The plans and budgets included in SCHEDULE V 
and each subsequent development plan and budget approved by the Management 
Committee are referred to in this Agreement as the "Development Plans".


    (c)  IMPLEMENTATION.  The Development Plans will set forth the 
responsibilities of each Collaborator.  The parties anticipate that the 
regulatory strategies specified in the Development Plan will be implemented 
by Cephalon, who will be responsible for, among other things, the conduct of  
all clinical trials of Products in the Major Markets (including 
post-approval, quality of life, cost-benefit and any other studies necessary 
for Regulatory or Pricing Approvals in the Major Markets), the recruitment of 
investigators, the monitoring of clinical trials and the performance of any 
other activities required to obtain Regulatory Approvals and Pricing 
Approvals in the Major Markets.  Each party will make available its clinical 
and regulatory assets to the extent specified in the applicable Development 
Plan.  The design of the clinical trials for IGF-1 that were initiated by 
Cephalon prior to the Effective Date are hereby deemed to be approved.  The 
Development Committee will prepare for submission to the Management Committee 
the design of the clinical trials that are to be initiated for Products after 
the Effective Date.

    (d)  ASSISTANCE BY EUROCETUS.  If determined to be cost-effective by the 
Management Committee, Cephalon may contract separately with EuroCetus, B.V., 
a subsidiary of Chiron, for assistance in the clinical development of SOD 
bFGF and Cardioxane in the Major Markets outside North America.  Cephalon 
will reimburse EuroCetus directly for the costs of providing such service, 
with the reimbursement treated as an Allowable Expense of Cephalon.

    (e)  CLINICAL DATA.  All clinical data obtained from any studies 
conducted pursuant to the Development Plans shall be jointly owned by 
Cephalon and Chiron and may be used by either Collaborator inside the Field 
and inside the Territory, subject to the JV's right to use all such data for 
purposes of the Collaboration in the Territory.  All clinical data related to 
a Product that is developed pursuant to the Development Plans may be used by 
either Collaborator or its licensees or joint development partners outside 
the Field or outside the Territory only to the extent required by applicable 
law (such as to report adverse experiences) and, in the case of data related 
to a Product containing a Compound other than IGF-1, may be used for any 
other purpose by a Collaborator or its licensees or joint development 
partners outside the Field or outside the Territory


                                     -12-


<PAGE>


upon commercially reasonable terms. In addition to the permitted uses 
described above, all clinical data related to a Product containing IGF-1 (i)
may be used by CCP, inside or outside the Field, to the extent required under 
the applicable Cephalon Agreement, and (ii) may be used by Kyowa Hakko Kogyo in
Japan to the extent required by law (such as to report adverse experiences) 
or for any other purpose upon commercially reasonable terms if Cephalon is 
obligated to provide Kyowa with exclusive use of such data in Japan; and 
(iii) may be used by Chiron and Cephalon outside the Field and inside the 
Territory upon commercially reasonable terms. If Cephalon is not obligated to
provide Kyowa Hakko Kogyo with the exclusive use of such data, Chiron may 
use the clinical data in Japan upon commercially reasonable terms. The grant 
of rights to use clinical data as specified in this paragraph (e) shall not 
be deemed to grant any express or implied rights or license in or to any other 
intellectual property of a Collaborator.

         (f)  REPORTS.  Each Collaborator shall report to the Development 
Committee, upon reasonable request (but not less than every three months), 
the status of its activities under the applicable Development Plan. The report
may be in writing or, at the option of the Collaborator, in an oral 
presentation made at the Development Committee meeting.

     SECTION 3.2  CLINICAL SUPPLIES OF PRODUCTS.

         (a)  GENERAL.  For Products other than IGF-1, the parties agree that 
Chiron shall manufacture the Collaboration's requirements of all finished 
Products to be used for clinical trials and other development activities 
under this Agreement, unless otherwise determined by the Management Committee.

         (b)  CLINICAL SUPPLIES OF IGF-1.  The Management Committee shall 
determine the appropriate time for Chiron to begin supplying IGF-1 for 
clinical purposes. Until that time, Cephalon will continue to use supplies of 
IGF-1 produced at the Cephalon Facility for clinical trials of IGF-1, 
including supplies needed to complete the U.S and European clinical trials of 
IGF-1 in treating ALS and the pilot trials of IGF-1 in treating peripheral 
neuropathies.

         (c)  SCALE-UP OF CHIRON FACILITY.  Chiron will use the Chiron 
Facility at Vacaville, California (the "Vacaville Facility") to manufacture 
the Collaboration's requirements of IGF-1 for clinical purposes in accordance 
with the Development Plans. Chiron will make reasonable efforts, including 
making capital investments, to scale-up and expand the applicable Chiron 
Facility as needed to allow sufficient GMP Grade Product to be made in 
accordance with the quantity, schedule and other requirements of the 
applicable Development Plan. Without limiting the foregoing, Chiron will 
proceed to install [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]


                                      -13-


<PAGE>

[CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] at its Vacaville facility. The capital costs
incurred by Chiron for the scale-up activities shall not be an Allowable Expense
(except to the extent depreciation charges are included as a Cost). Chiron shall
take such other steps as may be commercially reasonable so that the Product 
produced at the Chiron Facility is acceptable for purposes of obtaining 
Regulatory Approvals in the Major Markets in accordance with the Development 
Plans.

         (d)  CEPHALON FACILITY.  Chiron and Cephalon will use the Cephalon 
Facility to supply IGF-1 for clinical supplies, as described in paragraph 
(b), and may use the Cephalon Facility as the Alternate Facility pursuant to 
Section 4.5 hereof. Chiron and Cephalon also will discuss using the Cephalon 
Facility to manufacture products of Chiron (other than Products) or, to the 
extent determined by the Management Committee to be cost-effective, other 
Products, provided that neither party is obligated to enter into an agreement 
to use the Cephalon Facility for any such purposes.

     SECTION 3.3  REGULATORY APPROVALS.

         (a)  ESTABLISHMENT LICENSES.  A Collaborator who supplies a Product 
to the Collaboration will be responsible for complying with all establishment 
registration requirements and obtaining all other applicable approvals 
required for the production of Products at the applicable manufacturing 
facility (collectively, "ELAs").

         (b)  REGULATORY AND PRICING APPROVALS.  It is intended that all 
Regulatory Approvals and Pricing Approvals relating to Products in the Field 
within the Major Markets will be owned by the Collaboration and will be 
registered in the name of the JV, unless otherwise required by law, and the 
JV shall be organized to permit such ownership. INDs and other pre-market 
clearances related to a Product shall be owned by the party conducting the 
clinical trials of the Product in the Field, unless otherwise required by 
law. To the extent that any INDs or other premarketing clearances or 
approvals related to any of the Products in the Field within the Major Markets 
are registered in the name of either Collaborator, such Collaborator will take 
such actions permitted by law as maybe necessary to transfer such clearances 
and approvals to the JV and otherwise will exercise its rights under all such 
clearances and approvals in a manner consistent with this Agreement.

         (c)  DILIGENCE.  Each Collaborator shall use all commercially 
reasonable efforts, commensurate with those efforts used for its other 
products of similar potential and consistent with its obligations under the 
Development Plans, to diligently obtain the approvals it is responsible for 
under the Development


                                     -14-


<PAGE>

Plans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Collaborator acknowledges that 
there can be no assurance that any ELA, Regulatory Approval or Pricing 
Approval will be obtained for a Product in any Major Market.

     SECTION 3.4  BALANCING OF DEVELOPMENT COSTS.

         (a)  BALANCING.  The parties deem their initial contribution of 
technology to the Collaboration with respect to IGF-1 to be of equal value. 
The parties intend that the Allowable Expenses funded by each of them to 
manufacture and develop Products in the Major Markets during the period 
between October 1, 1993 and the Commercialization Date will be equal as of 
the Commercialization Date.

         (i)  Each party shall fund its own Allowable Expenses under the 
    Development Plans through December 31, 1994 or, if later, the date when a 
    Collaborator has incurred an aggregate of $20 million in Allowable Expenses
    under the Development Plans; provided, however, that prior to that date 
    either Collaborator may, but shall not be required to, reimburse the other 
    Collaborator for any deficiency in the equal funding of Allowable Expenses,
    bearing interest at the per annum rate equal to the greater of the Prime 
    Rate as reported in the BLOOMBERG FINANCIAL MARKETS, COMMODITIES & NEWS (or
    any mutually acceptable successor thereto) or the rate of interest imputed 
    for the purposes of Federal income taxes (as such, the "Balancing Rate") on
    the amount of such deficiency as calculated as of the end of each Calendar 
    Quarter; but in no event shall the Balancing Rate exceed the maximum 
    interest rate allowed by applicable law.

          (ii) From and after the later of December 31, 1994 or the date when 
    one of the Collaborators has funded an aggregate of $20 million in Allowable
    Expenses under the Development Plans, the other party shall reimburse such 
    party for 100% of the Allowable Expenses funded thereafter by such party, 
    plus interest at the Balancing Rate on the amount of such deficiency as 
    calculated as of the end of each Calendar Quarter for the period of the 
    deficiency, until the aggregate Allowable Expenses (excluding interest) 
    funded by both parties since October 1, 1993 are shared equally (i.e., 
    balanced). Once the aggregate Allowable Expenses have been balanced, each
    party shall be responsible for funding 50% of the aggregate Allowable 
    Expenses incurred thereafter by the parties. The adjustments for Allowable
    Expenses shall be made on a quarterly basis under Section 6.5(b) hereof.

         (iii) If the Commercialization Date occurs before the Allowable 
    Expenses incurred under the Development Plans are balanced in full, the 
    balancing shall continue under


                                     -15-
<PAGE>


    clause (ii) for such expenses in addition to any balancing required under 
    Section 6.2(a) hereof.

              (iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 
    3.4, if the Agreement is terminated for any reason before the Allowable 
    Expenses are balanced in full under clauses (i) or (ii) or Section 6.2(a), 
    then there shall be no balancing required except as may occur under Section 
    16.5(a).

          ARTICLE 4 - COMMERCIALIZATION ACTIVITIES IN MAJOR MARKETS

    SECTION 4.1  MARKETING STRATEGY IN MAJOR MARKETS.  The Management 
Committee shall establish a Marketing Committee which shall be responsible 
for developing a marketing strategy for each Product on a country-by-country 
basis within the Major Markets. The marketing strategy for each year shall be 
included in a marketing plan that is approved by the Management Committee (as 
so approved, a "Marketing Plan"). Each Collaborator shall appoint 50% of the 
permanent and alternate members of the Marketing Committee. Any action or 
decision by the Marketing Committee must be authorized by the approval of a 
majority of each party's designated members on the committee, unless 
otherwise specified in this Agreement. If the Marketing Committee can not 
agree on a particular matter, the matter shall be submitted for resolution to 
the Management Committee. If the Management Committee can not agree on a 
particular matter, the matter shall be submitted for resolution in accordance 
with Article 15 hereof.

    Without limiting the Marketing Committee's functions, the Marketing 
Committee shall, subject to the Management Committee's approval of the 
Marketing Plan and subject to Section 4.6:

              (i)  select the Trademark and the form of label, package insert 
    and packaging for each Product in each Major Market, subject to Section 9.7 
    hereof;

              (ii)  determine the pricing and reimbursement strategy for each 
    Product in each Major Market;

              (iii)  coordinate pre-launch activities for Products in the 
    Major Markets, including symposia and other marketing efforts;

              (iv)  establish the schedule for Product launch in each Major 
    Market;

              (v)  establish anticipated sales targets for each Product in 
    each Major Market;


                                     -16-


<PAGE>


              (vi)  identify the estimated capacity of Chiron and Cephalon 
(if applicable), to be used for the production of Products containing IGF-1 
pursuant to Section 4.5(b).

    SECTION 4.2  RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PARTIES.

         (a)  ALLOCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES.  The Marketing Plan shall 
identify the responsibilities of each Collaborator (or its third party 
subcontractors) in the promotion, marketing and distribution of Products in 
the Major Markets. In determining the appropriate allocation of 
responsibilities, the objective of the Marketing Committee is to maximize the 
efficiency and effectiveness of the commercialization of the Products in the 
Major Markets. Except as provided in this Article 4 or as otherwise 
determined by the Management Committee, Chiron will be responsible for 
marketing the Products in the Major Markets consistent with the Marketing 
Plan and will perform all distribution functions related to the Products, 
including, without limitation, distributor and wholesaler contracts, 
warehousing, order taking and processing, delivery, invoicing, collections and 
returns. However, the parties understand that (i) pursuant to the CIBA 
Agreement, CIBA has a right of first refusal under certain circumstances to 
sell or promote (including copromotion of) Products containing IGF-1 in the 
Territory, and (ii) Cephalon has the exclusive right to detail Products 
directly to neurologists in the Major Markets. The Management Committee shall 
determine whether a third party marketing arrangement is appropriate in any 
country or countries in the Major Markets and its approval shall be required 
with respect to the terms of any selling or promotion arrangement with CIBA 
on behalf of the JV, which arrangement shall be consistent with the terms of 
this Agreement; the Management Committee's approval shall not be withheld 
except on the grounds that the agreement is commercially unreasonable.

         (b)  DILIGENCE.  To the extent a Collaborator is responsible for any 
of the promotion, marketing or distribution of Products in the Major Markets, 
it shall perform such activities using commercially reasonable efforts, 
commensurate with those efforts used for its other products of similar 
potential and consistent with its obligations under the applicable Marketing 
Plans.

         (c)  EXPANSION OF RIGHTS.

              (i)  Cephalon shall have the right (but not the obligation) to 
detail Products directly to all purchasers in a country in the Major Markets 
if at any time during the term of this Agreement (A) Chiron, directly or 
indirectly, participates in the marketing or sale of any product (other than 
a product containing a Compound) that is approved for the same indication as 
a Product marketed or sold in that country by Chiron on behalf


                                     -17-


<PAGE>


of the Collaboration, and (B) Chiron has failed to diligently market the 
Product under Section 4.2(b) above in that country. The election by Cephalon 
to expand its rights to detail Products shall not affect Chiron's rights 
under the terms of this Agreement.

              (ii)  Chiron shall have the right (but not the obligation) to 
sell Products directly to neurologists in a country in the Major Markets if 
at any time during the term of this Agreement (A) Cephalon, directly or 
indirectly, participates in the marketing or sale of any product (other than 
a product containing a Compound) that is approved for the same indication as 
a Product detailed in that country by Cephalon on behalf of the 
Collaboration, and (B) Cephalon has failed to diligently detail the Product 
under Section 4.2(b) above in that country. The election by Chiron to expand 
its rights to market Products shall not affect Cephalon's rights under the 
terms of this Agreement.

         (d)  ALLOWABLE EXPENSES.  In no event shall the Allowable Expenses 
related to a detailing, selling or marketing activity exceed the Costs of the 
most cost-effective alternative for the Product, as determined by the 
Management Committee. The difference, if any, between the Costs of a 
Collaborator permitted as an Allowable Expense and its actual costs shall be 
the responsibility of that Collaborator.

    SECTION 4.3  COMMERCIALIZATION OF PRODUCTS.  The parties will explore and 
implement, to the extent feasible, an arrangement that will permit each 
Collaborator to report an approximately equal amount of Net Sales of Products 
in the Major Markets for each accounting period, in accordance with generally 
accepted accounting principles. Such arrangement, for example, could involve 
dividing the sales markets for Products on a geographic basis.

    SECTION 4.4  LABELLING.  Subject to Section 4.6, the label, package 
insert, packaging, advertising and promotional materials for each Product 
shall be approved by the Management Committee. All such materials shall 
identify the names of both Collaborators, unless prohibited by applicable 
law.

    SECTION 4.5  MANUFACTURE OF COMMERCIAL SUPPLIES OF PRODUCTS.

         (a)  GENERAL.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.5, the 
Collaboration shall obtain all of its requirements for Products from Chiron. 
It is expected that Chiron will manufacture the commercial supplies of 
Products containing Compounds other than IGF-1. It is expected that Chiron 
will use its Vacaville Facility and Cephalon will use the Cephalon Facility 
for the production of commercial supplies of Products containing IGF-1 to the 
extent contemplated under paragraph (b) below. Each of the Collaborators, to 
the extent that it is manufacturing Products for the Collaboration, shall


                                     -18-


<PAGE>


use commercially reasonable efforts to manufacture and supply the finished 
Products for commercial purposes of the Collaboration in a cost-effective 
manner and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and a supplemental 
manufacturing agreement to be entered into by the parties consistent with the 
terms of this Section 4.5.

    (b)  ALLOCATION OF CAPACITY FOR PRODUCTS CONTAINING IGF-1.  Chiron will 
use commercially reasonable efforts, including the making of capital 
investments, to scale-up and expand the Vacaville Facility to up to 
[CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] capacity to produce GMP Grade IGF-1 in 
quantities sufficient for the Collaboration's commercial purposes as specified 
in the Marketing Plans. At the time of the initial determination by the 
Management Committee that the [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] capacity of 
the Vacaville Facility is not adequate to meet the forseeable requirements of 
the Collaboration, Cephalon may elect to use the Cephalon Facility as an 
Alternate Facility to provide the additional increments of capacity, not to 
exceed [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of capacity in the aggregate.  Any 
such election must be made promptly by Cephalon, but no later than thirty (30) 
days after the Management Committee's determination is made.  In such event, 
Cephalon will use commercially reasonable efforts, including the making of 
capital investments, to scale-up and expand its manufacturing facility in 
Beltsville, Maryland to provide GMP Grade IGF-1 for such purpose. In the event
that the IGF-1 Product requirements of the Collaboration exceed the allocated 
manufacturing capacity at the Chiron Facility and the Cephalon Facility, then 
Chiron shall use commercially reasonable efforts to expand its Vacaville 
Facility or another Chiron facility to produce quantities of Products 
sufficient for the Collaboration's commercial purposes as specified in the 
Marketing Plans.  The schedule for meeting commercial scale capacity for the 
Chiron Facility and the Cephalon Facility will be determined by the Management 
Committee, taking into account the quantities of IGF-1 required by the 
Collaboration, the anticipated regulatory schedule and the time and resources 
required to complete additional capital improvements. Each Collaborator shall 
take such other steps as may be commercially reasonable so that the Product 
produced at its facility or facilities meets the projected shipment schedules 
under the applicable Marketing Plan.

    (c)  EXCESS MANUFACTURING CAPACITY.  If the dedicated manufacturing 
capacity for the Products at the Chiron Facility and the manufacturing 
capacity at the Cephalon Facility as approved in the Marketing Plan is 
greater than the actual demand from the Products, then the supply requirements 
for the Products shall be allocated between the Chiron Facility and the 
Cephalon Facility as determined by the Management Committee.


                                     -19-


<PAGE>


    (d)  SUPPLY SHORTAGES AND INTERRUPTIONS.  If the manufacturing capacity 
at the Chiron Facility and the Cephalon Facility which is allocated to the 
manufacture of the Products under the applicable Marketing Plan is not 
adequate to meet the market demand for a Product, each Collaborator will 
allocate its other manufacturing capacity, if any, which is used to 
manufacture the Compound contained in such Product for the production of such 
Product in order to supply such Product in an amount equal to the lesser of 
(i) the Product quantities allocated to such Collaborator as set forth in the 
applicable Marketing Plan or (ii) such Collaborator's percentage of the 
Product supply as set forth in the Marketing Plan multiplied by the actual 
market demand for such Product.  If a force majeure event under Section 17.3 
affects the supply of a Product from the capacity allocated to a Collaborator 
under a Marketing Plan, the Collaborator may allocate such capacity ratably  
between the Collaboration's requirements and any supply obligations of the 
Collaborator to a third party.  If the Collaborators cannot satisfy their 
obligations to make a Product under this Agreement for a period of sixty (60) 
consecutive days, including any failure caused by a force majeure event under 
Section 17.3 hereof, the Management Committee shall designate a manufacturer 
(which may be a Collaborator) to make the Product until the Collaborators 
are able to resume supply of the Products under the terms of this Agreement.

    (e)  COST-EFFECTIVENESS.  The Management Committee will be responsible 
for reviewing the cost-effectiveness of the supply of each Product and to 
determine the amount of the manufacturing costs of each Collaborator that 
will be permitted as an Allowable Expense. [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]
In reviewing the cost-effectiveness of the supply of each Product, the 
Management Committee may compare the Costs of manufacturing a Product at the
Chiron Facility and at the Cephalon Facility.  If the per unit cost of 
manufacturing a Product is higher at one of these facilities, the Management
Committee shall review the cost-effectiveness of such manufacturing and shall
determine the amount of the manufacturing costs that will be permitted as an 
Allowable Expense; provided, however, that in considering the cost-
effectiveness of the manufacturing and the Costs permitted as Allowable 
Expenses, the Management Committee shall recognize that a reasonable difference
in the costs of manufacturing at the Chiron Facility and the Cephalon Facility 
is to be expected in relation to the costs and benefits of maintaining an 
Alternative Facility, and is permitted as an Allowable Expense.

    (f)  PRODUCT QUALITY.  Each Collaborator agrees that each shipment of the 
Products manufactured by it will conform to the applicable Specifications and 
will be made, stored, packaged, 


                                     -20-


<PAGE>


labeled and controlled by it in accordance with the process and procedures 
contained in the applicable Regulatory Standards.  Neither Collaborator will 
modify any process or procedure used in the manufacture of a Product without 
notifying the Management Committee and allowing the Management Committee time 
to file any required notices with the applicable regulatory authorities and 
obtain any regulatory approvals required in connection with the modification. 
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE, NEITHER 
COLLABORATOR MAKES ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, 
CONCERNING THE PRODUCTS.  SPECIFICALLY, BUT WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, 
NEITHER COLLABORATOR MAKES ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF 
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, QUALITY OR 
USEFULNESS OF THE PRODUCTS.


    (g)  FACILITY AUDIT AND INSPECTIONS.  A Collaborator manufacturing 
Products shall, upon reasonable advance notice, permit the other Collaborator 
or any other authorized representative of the Collaboration to audit the 
supplying Collaborator's manufacturing process and the manufacturing, 
production and control records for the Products.  Any such inspection shall be 
conducted subject to the confidentiality obligations under this Agreement.  
The supplying Collaborator shall take appropriate actions to adopt reasonable 
suggestions of the other Collaborator to correct any deficiencies identified 
by such inspection or audit.  To supplement this provision, the other 
Collaborator also may make arrangements, at its cost and expense (which 
shall not be an Allowable Expense), to have one of its employees located on 
the premises of the Chiron Facility or the Alternate Facility, as the case 
may be, to participate in the monitoring of Product manufacture.

    (h)  DEPOSIT OF BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS.  Each Collaborator shall deposit 
with a mutually agreeable depository (such as the ATCC), upon terms customary 
in the industry, all biological materials used in its manufacturing process, 
and shall provide all manufacturing information required to enable a third 
party to assume the manufacturing of Products under paragraph (e) above or 
Section 16.5 hereof.

    SECTION 4.6  ACTIVITIES OF CHIRON OUTSIDE THE FIELD.

    (a)  Cephalon recognizes that Chiron has development programs, and in the 
future may initiate development programs, with respect to the Compounds for 
indications outside the Field (a "Chiron Indication Product").  Nothing in 
this Agreement shall be construed to limit such rights as Chiron may 
otherwise have to develop or commercialize a Chiron Indication Product.  
Except as provided in this Article 4.6, all aspects of development and 
commercialization for Chiron Indication Products including, without 
limitation, clinical development, regulatory strategy and filings, marketing 
strategy and tactics, including pricing, may


                                     -21-


<PAGE>


be determined solely by Chiron. Without limiting the generality of the 
foregoing, for example, Chiron may determine the contents of labelling and 
package inserts for any Chiron Indication Product and may determine the 
prices at which any such product will be sold, even if the Chiron Indication 
Product is identical to a Product (other than with respect to labelling and 
package inserts). Chiron may make such determinations in its discretion 
notwithstanding that such determinations may effect the corresponding aspect 
of the Collaboration's development and commercialization of any Product that 
is based upon the same Compound in a manner that may or may not be in the 
best interest of the Collaboration.

         (b)  Notwithstanding (a) above, Chiron agrees to meet and confer in 
good faith with Cephalon and consider any recommendation Cephalon may make 
with respect to any action by Chiron with respect to Chiron Indication 
Products that Cephalon reasonably believes may have any material effects upon 
the development or commercialization of Products. Further, to the extent that 
any aspect of the development or commercialization of a Chiron Indication 
Product is related solely to the corresponding aspect of a Product approved 
for sale in the Field based upon the same Compound, Chiron shall take 
reasonable steps to conform such aspect of the Chiron Indication Product to 
the decisions of the Management Committee regarding the corresponding aspect 
of such Product. If a Collaborator is developing a product containing a 
Compound for commercialization outside the Field, the Collaborators will use 
commercially reasonable efforts to design the Collaboration's Product so that 
it would be differentiated from such product.

              To the extent that a Chiron Indication Product and a Product 
based upon the same Compound are differentiated such that a decision by 
Chiron with respect to an aspect of the Chiron Indication Product does not 
determine a corresponding aspect of the Product, Chiron shall take reasonable 
steps to preserve the differentiating aspect of the Chiron Indication Product 
so as to facilitate the implementation of decisions of the Management 
Committee regarding the corresponding aspect of the Product.

         (c)  Any Chiron Indication Product may be marketed under a 
tradename, tradedress and trademark chosen by, owned by and registered by 
Chiron. If Chiron elects to use the tradename, tradedress and trademark owned 
by or registered to the JV for a product that is both a Product and a Chiron 
Indication Product, the JV shall thereupon hold the trademark, tradedress 
and/or tradename for the benefit of both Chiron and the Collaboration and 
any goodwill related to the use thereof by the Parties within the Field shall 
accrue to the JV and any goodwill related to the use thereof by Chiron 
outside the Field shall accrue to the benefit of Chiron. Conversely, if the 
JV elects to use a tradename, tradedress and/or trademark owned and 
registered by


                                     -22-


<PAGE>


Chiron with respect to such product, Chiron shall hold the trademark, 
tradedress and/or tradename for the benefit of both Chiron and the 
Collaboration and any goodwill related to the use thereof by the Parties 
within the Field shall accrue to the JV and by Chiron outside the Field shall 
accrue to the benefit of Chiron.

              If a Chiron Indication Product has received Regulatory Approval 
in the Territory prior to the receipt by the Collaboration of Regulatory 
Approval of a Product containing the same Compound and Chiron reasonably 
determines after consultation with the Management Committee that the Product 
is not substantially differentiated from a Chiron Indication Product, Chiron 
may elect to require the Collaboration to market such Product under the same 
tradename, tradedress or trademark as is used in connection with such Chiron 
Indication Product. If a Product has received Regulatory Approval in the 
Territory prior to the receipt by Chiron of Regulatory Approval of a Chiron 
Indication Product containing the same Compound, the Collaboration may 
continue to use the tradename, tradedress or trademark approved by the 
Management Committee notwithstanding the subsequent approval of such Chiron 
Indication Product.

                             ARTICLE 5 - LICENSES

    SECTION 5.1  CROSS-LICENSES PRIOR TO FORMATION OF JV.

         (a)  PATENT RIGHTS.  Cephalon hereby grants to Chiron a 
royalty-free, nonexclusive license or sublicense in and to the patent rights 
included in the Cephalon Technology for use in the Field to develop and use 
Products in the Territory in accordance with the Development Plans. Chiron 
hereby grants to Cephalon a royalty-free, nonexclusive license or sublicense 
in and to the patent rights included in the Chiron Technology for use in the 
Field to develop and use Products in the Territory in accordance with the 
Development Plans. The cross-licenses in this clause (a) shall terminate 
upon the effectiveness of the licenses in Sections 5.2 and 5.3.

         (b)  PERPETUAL KNOW-HOW LICENSES.  Subject to the restrictions on the 
use of clinical data set forth in Section 3.1(e), Cephalon hereby grants to 
Chiron a perpetual, nonexclusive, royalty-free license (except for the 
royalty payable to the JV under Section 8.1 hereof) to all Technical 
Information included in the Cephalon Technology in the Territory, for any use 
by Chiron, whether inside or outside the Field. Subject to Section 3.1(e) and 
7.4, Chiron hereby grants to Cephalon a perpetual, nonexclusive, royalty-free 
license or sublicense (except for the royalty payable to the Chiron under 
Section 6.4 hereof) to all Technical Information that is included

<PAGE>


in the Chiron Technology in the Territory, for any use by Cephalon, whether 
inside or outside the Field.

    SECTION 5.2  LICENSES TO JV.

         (a)  CEPHALON.  Upon the formation of the JV, Cephalon will grant to 
the JV an exclusive license in and to the Cephalon Technology for use in the 
Field to develop, make, have made, use and sell Products in the Territory, 
subject to the perpetual cross-licenses under Section 5.1(b).

         (b)  CHIRON.  Upon the formation of the JV, Chiron will grant to the 
JV an exclusive license in and to the Chiron Technology for use in the Field 
to develop, make, have made, use and sell Products in the Territory, subject 
to the perpetual cross-licenses under Section 5.1(b).

         (c)  JV TECHNOLOGY.  All rights licensed to the JV by the 
Collaborators pursuant to this Article 5, together with any invention or 
discovery, whether or not patentable, made solely or jointly by a JV employee 
after the Effective Date, are collectively referred to herein as the "JV 
Technology".

    SECTION 5.3  LICENSES FROM JV TO COLLABORATORS IN THE MAJOR MARKETS.  
Effective upon the formation of the JV, the JV hereby grants to each of 
Cephalon and Chiron a nonexclusive, royalty-free license, with no right to 
sublicense, in and to the JV Technology, to the extent required for each 
party to conduct its responsibilities in the Major Markets under this 
Agreement or any Development Plan or Marketing Plan.

    SECTION 5.4  LICENSE FROM JV TO CHIRON IN THE ROYALTY TERRITORY.  
Effective upon the formation of the JV, the JV hereby grants to Chiron an 
exclusive, worldwide right and license in and to the JV Technology to make, 
have made, use and sell Products in the Royalty Territory, subject to the 
royalty obligation and other terms and conditions of Article 8 hereof.

    SECTION 5.5  OPTIONAL RIGHTS.

         (a)  SIBIA RIGHTS.  Cephalon hereby grants to Chiron and the JV a 
nonexclusive option to include in the license under Sections 5.1 or 5.2, as 
applicable, the SIBIA Rights of Cephalon inside the Field. If Chiron or the 
JV elects in writing to exercise the option inside the Field for purposes of 
the Collaboration, the SIBIA Rights shall automatically become part of the 
Cephalon Technology and any third party royalties payable as a result of the 
use by the JV of the SIBIA Rights in the Major Markets shall be deemed a 
Third Party Royalty to be paid by the JV. [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

                                     -24-





<PAGE>

[CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] If at any time prior to Chiron's exercise 
of its option Cephalon proposes to transfer or terminate any of the SIBIA 
Rights, Cephalon shall provide Chiron with notice thereof, sufficiently in 
advance to allow Chiron to exercise its option or otherwise obtain such rights
directly from SIBIA. If Chiron exercises its option, Cephalon shall maintain 
the SIBIA Rights in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.10.

         (b)  CEPHALON IGF-1 TECHNOLOGY OUTSIDE THE FIELD.
Except as provided in this Section 5.5; Cephalon shall not develop or 
commercialize with any third party, or license intellectual property rights 
from any third party related to the development or commercialization of a 
product containing IGF-1 for an indication outside the Field using Cephalon 
Technology or any proprietary technology that it developed pursuant to the 
Development Plans, without the prior written consent of Chiron. Cephalon 
currently owns or has license rights to certain technology relating to the 
use of IGF-1 for indications outside the Field ("Nonfield Indications"). All 
of these Nonfield Indications and the related technology rights are 
identified on Schedule VIII hereto. In addition, Cephalon may develop, in the 
course of performing activities pursuant to the Development Plans or 
otherwise, data which indicates that IGF-1 may have utility for an indication 
outside the Field (the "Additional Nonfield Indications"). Cephalon shall 
notify Chiron in writing if it develops any such data with respect to an 
Additional Nonfield Indication, and such notice shall contain a summary of such
data in reasonable detail to enable Chiron to analyze the merits of the 
possible utility. Cephalon hereby grants to Chiron the right to obtain from 
Cephalon, exclusive rights to the technology and related Technical Information
for any of the Nonfield Indications and Additional Nonfield Indications for use
outside the Field. Chiron shall notify Cephalon if it wishes to negotiate a
transaction with respect to a Nonfield Indication or Additional Nonfield 
Indication. If Chiron and Cephalon, after good faith negotiations, have failed
to reach agreement within 90 days as to the appropriate terms and fair market 
compensation for such indication, the parties will submit the determination of 
fair market compensation to arbitration pursuant to Section 15.2 hereof. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chiron may elect to have the Collaboration 
obtain such rights to the Nonfield Indication or Additional Nonfield 
Indication on terms mutually acceptable to Chiron and Cephalon. The parties 
intend that such terms shall reflect a profit participation for Cephalon that 
represents the economic equivalent of a commercially reasonable royalty and the
equal sharing by Chiron and Cephalon of future development costs


                                     -25-


<PAGE>


with respect to such indication. The rights of Chiron under this Section 5.5(b) 
are subject to any approvals of the CCP Board of Directors or partners 
required under the applicable Cephalon Agreements. Cephalon shall use its best 
efforts to obtain such approvals, if required.

     SECTION 5.6  RETAINED RIGHTS.  Each of Chiron and Cephalon reserves the 
right to use, respectively, the Chiron Technology and the Cephalon 
Technology, for any purpose whatsoever outside the Field and/or outside the 
Territory, without liability to the other party or to the JV, except as may 
be otherwise specified in Sections 5.5(b), and 6.2(b) and 6.3 hereof.

     SECTION 5.7  PRIOR RIGHTS.  The rights granted or to be granted by 
Cephalon to Chiron and the JV under this Agreement are subject in all 
respects to the prior rights of third parties under the Cephalon Agreements. 
The rights granted or to be granted by Chiron to Cephalon and the JV under 
this Agreement are subject in all respects to the prior rights of third 
parties under the Chiron Agreements.

     SECTION 5.8  INVENTIONS.  All inventions and discoveries resulting from 
the Collaboration, whether or not patentable, shall be owned by the 
Collaborator making the invention or discovery. All Joint Technology shall be 
owned by the JV or, in the absence of the JV, by the Collaborators jointly.

     SECTION 5.9  NEW TECHNOLOGIES.  

         (a)  THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS.  The Management Committee may acquire from 
third parties, if commercially reasonable, such rights to new technology in 
the Field as are necessary or desirable for the JV, directly or indirectly, 
to make, use and sell Products. The JV (and not the Collaborators 
individually) shall be responsible for any payments or royalties for such 
rights attributable to the sale of Products in the Major Markets owing to a 
third party under an agreement approved by the Management Committee.

         (b)  ADDITIONAL TECHNOLOGY OF COLLABORATORS.  The parties 
contemplate that Chiron's biologically-active small molecules and its 
proprietary molecular diversity technology and other proprietary Chiron 
compounds other than the Chiron Products may be added to the Collaboration, 
upon terms to be mutually agreed to by the Collaborators. Similarly, Cephalon 
and Chiron may from time to time agree in writing to include within the scope 
of this Agreement any other composition, product or technology of a 
Collaborator, upon terms to be mutually agreed to by the Collaborators. Unless
and until an agreement is executed providing for the addition of technology to
the Collaboration, the Collaborator shall be free to develop or dispose of such
technology in any manner it sees fit.


                                     -26-


<PAGE>


     SECTION 5.10  MAINTENANCE OF TECHNOLOGY.  In addition to its 
obligations under Section 9.1, Cephalon and Chiron shall notify the other 
Collaborator before allowing any intellectual property right included in the 
Cephalon Technology or the Chiron Technology, as applicable, the loss of 
which would have a material adverse effect on the business of the 
Collaboration to lapse, expire or terminate before its stated expiration or 
termination date, sufficiently in advance to allow the other Collaborator to 
seek to obtain the rights to such technology. Each Collaborator shall use 
all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain in full force and effect any 
license or other agreement pursuant to which it derives rights included in 
the Cephalon Technology or the Chiron Technology, as the case may be, the 
loss of which would have a material adverse effect on the business of the 
Collaboration and shall promptly notify the other if it receives notice or 
otherwise becomes aware of any default under any such agreement. Without 
limiting the foregoing, neither Collaborator shall amend or modify any such 
third-party agreement in a manner that would limit the benefits or expand the 
obligations of the Collaboration with respect to any such rights without the 
prior consent of the other Collaborator, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Neither Collaborator shall transfer or assign to an unaffiliated party
any such third party agreement or any other intellectual property right that is
licensed to the other Collaborator or the JV under this Agreement, without the 
prior approval of the Management Committee.

     SECTION 5.11  SUBLICENSING OF TECHNOLOGY.  Cephalon may sublicense its 
rights under Section 5.1(b) to its licensees or sublicensees to the extent 
required by the corresponding Cephalon Agreement, and Chiron may sublicense 
its rights to its licensees or sublicensees. The JV may sublicense all or 
part of the JV Technology to one or more third parties, subject to the 
execution by the third party of a sublicense agreement satisfactory to the 
Management Committee.

     SECTION 5.12  DISCLOSURE OF TECHNOLOGY.  Promptly after the Effective 
Date and from time to time thereafter during the term of this Agreement, each 
Collaborator shall promptly disclose to the other the Technical Information 
which becomes known to it to the extent licensed to the other Collaborator or 
the JV under this Article 5. In addition, each Collaborator shall promptly
disclose to the other Collaborator, in writing, any invention 
or discovery included in its license to the other Collaborator of the 
Cephalon Technology or Chiron Technology, as the case may be, under Article 5.

                  ARTICLE 6 - COMPENSATION IN MAJOR MARKETS

    SECTION 6.1  EQUAL SHARING OF OPERATING PROFITS AND LOSSES.  The 
Operating Profits and Operating Losses shall be shared equally by Cephalon 
and Chiron, except for the special allocation described in Section 6.2(a) 
hereof.

    SECTION 6.2  SPECIAL ALLOCATIONS.

         (a)  BALANCING OF COSTS AFTER COMMERCIALIZATION DATE.  To the extent 
the Allowable Expenses of the Collaborators are not equally funded as of the 
Commercialization Date, the Collaborator who funded the greater share of 
Allowable Expenses shall be entitled to receive from sales of Products in the 
Major Markets, prior to the allocation of Operating Profits under Section 
6.1, a special allocation equal to [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] plus 
[CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]. These credits shall be applied until
the Collaborator has received 100% of its excess Allowable Expenses as of the 
Commercialization Date, plus interest at the Balancing Rate (as defined in 
Section 3.4) on the amount of such excess for the period of the excess amount.

         (b)  SALES FOR DIABETES.  The parties acknowledge that sales of a 
Product containing IGF-1 for diabetic neuropathy may overlap with sales of a 
product containing IGF-1 for diabetes. The parties therefore agree that if an
IGF-1 Product of the JV receives Regulatory Approval for the treatment of
diabetic neuropathy or a Collaborator receives Regulatory Approval in the 
Territory of another product containing IGF-1 for the treatment of diabetes,
the Collaborators will [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] The allocation 
established by the parties shall apply regardless of which indication is 
approved first, and shall apply in lieu of any provisions of Section 6.3 
that might otherwise be applicable.


                                     -28-


<PAGE>


    SECTION 6.3  OFF-LABEL SALES IN THE MAJOR MARKETS.

         (a)  If a Product of the Collaboration receives Regulatory Approval 
in the Field in a country in the Major Markets prior to the receipt by Chiron 
(or its licensee or joint development partner) of Regulatory Approval in such 
country of a product containing the same Compound for an indication outside 
the Field then all sales of such Product used for an indication (whether 
inside or outside the Field) in that country shall be included in the Net 
Sales used to calculate Operating Profits and, if applicable, any royalty 
payable to Chiron pursuant to Section 6.4 with respect to such country; 
provided that all costs and expenses associated with such Net Sales shall be 
included as an Allowable Expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, [CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] shall be excluded from the Net Sales used to calculate 
Operating Profits and, if applicable, any royalty payable to Chiron pursuant 
to Section 6.4 and in lieu thereof Chiron shall pay to the JV a royalty equal to
[CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]; provided that all costs and expenses 
associated with such excluded Net Sales shall not be included as an Allowable 
Expense. [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

         (b)  Upon the receipt by Chiron (or its licensee or joint 
development partner) of Regulatory Approval of a product outside the Field 
containing the same Compound as a Product, in a country in the Major Markets, 
all sales thereafter of the Product for use in any indication outside the 
Field in such country (according to market reports accepted in the industry) 
shall not be counted for purposes of calculating, with respect to such 
country (i) Operating Profits, (ii) any royalty payable to the JV under 
Section 6.3(a) above, or (iii) any royalty payable to Chiron pursuant to 
Section 6.4. All Costs associated with such sales shall not be permitted as 
Allowable Expenses for any purpose.

    SECTION 6.4  ROYALTIES TO CHIRON ON SALES OF CHIRON PRODUCTS.

         (a)  BASE ROYALTY.  The JV shall pay to Chiron a reasonable royalty 
on Net Sales of Chiron Products in the Major Markets. The royalty rate for 
each Chiron Product shall be negotiated by Cephalon and Chiron in good faith 
no later than the time an application for a Regulatory Approval is submitted 
in a Major Market for the corresponding Chiron Product. The royalty rate 
shall be the amount a third party would be willing to pay,


                                     -29-


<PAGE>


taking into consideration all relevant factors, including the value of the 
technology contributed by Chiron, the market opportunity for the Chiron 
Product, the availability of patent protection, the necessity of paying 
royalties to third parties, and the Costs and risks incurred or to be 
incurred by the Collaborators for development of the Chiron Product. The 
royalty rate for Net Sales of Products in the Major Markets shall not be less 
than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] nor more than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT 
REQUESTED] for a Chiron Product having Market Exclusivity (but which maximum 
rate shall not be more than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] in the case of a
Chiron Product if the preclinical and Phase I clinical data that is provided by
Chiron is substantially sufficient to permit clinical testing of the 
corresponding Product in the Field), and shall not be less than [CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] nor more than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] for other 
Chiron Products.

         (b)  ADJUSTMENTS TO ROYALTY

              (i)  The royalty payable under Section 6.4(a) for a Chiron 
Product with Market Exclusivity in a particular country in the Major Markets 
shall be reduced by an equitable amount to be determined by the Management 
Committee with respect to Net Sales of such Chiron Product in the country if 
a product containing the same Compound either (A) is being sold by a third 
party (other than third parties having rights through a Collaborator) in that 
country for the same indication, or (B) is approved for an indication in that 
country covered by the patent used to establish Market Exclusivity for the 
indication in the same country and there is no other basis for establishing 
Market Exclusivity as to the Chiron Product indication in that country.

              (ii)  The royalty payable under Section 6.4(a) for a Chiron 
Product without Market Exclusivity in a particular country in the Major 
Markets shall be increased to the rate used in a country where the Chiron 
Product has Market Exclusivity, if Chiron can reasonably demonstrate that 
even without Market Exclusivity, there is no significant competition for the 
Chiron Product with respect to the indication for which the Chiron Product 
received Regulatory Approval in the country. For purposes of this provision, 
"significant competition" means sales of a product by a third party or third 
parties (other than third parties having rights through a Collaborator) 
constitute more [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

              (iii)  If a royalty rate determined pursuant to Section 6.4(a) 
is such that the JV's profit percentage from sales of Chiron Products in the 
Major Markets is greater than or less than the percentage anticipated by the 
parties as of the Effective Date, Cephalon and Chiron shall meet and confer 
as to whether the royalty rates should be increased or decreased to


                                     -30-


<PAGE>


provide the JV and Chiron with a fair allocation of the economic benefits in 
the Major Markets.  Any such adjustment may be made on a country-by-country 
and Product-by-Product basis.

    SECTION 6.5  CALCULATION OF OPERATING PROFITS.

    (a)  PRIOR TO FORMATION OF JV.

         (i)  REPORTING.  Within twenty-one (21) days after the end of each 
month after the Effective Date until the formation of the JV, Cephalon shall 
submit to Chiron a report detailing all Allowable Expenses funded by Cephalon 
for the applicable month.  Within thirty (30) business days after the end of 
a Calendar Quarter, Cephalon shall also submit to Chiron a final report 
detailing all Allowable Expenses funded by Cephalon for the applicable 
quarter.  


         (ii)  STATEMENT OF ALLOWABLE EXPENSES.  Based on the reports of 
Cephalon, Chiron shall prepare a pro forma statement of its Allowable 
Expenses, combined Allowable Expenses and an inception-to-date report of each 
Collaborator's Allowable Expenses which it shall send to Cephalon no later 
than forty (40) days after the end of the applicable month.  In addition, 
based on the quarterly reports of Cephalon, Chiron shall prepare a final pro 
forma statement of combined Allowable Expenses and a final inception-to-date 
report of each Collaborator's Allowable Expenses for the Cephalon Quarter, 
which it shall send to Cephalon no later than sixty (60) days after the end 
of the Calendar Quarter.  Within fifteen (15) days after receiving the 
monthly report, the Collaborators shall make any payments, if required, to 
accomplish balancing under Section 3.4 (a) (ii) hereof.

         (iii)  CONFIRMATION.  Each Collaborator's chief financial officer 
shall confirm on an annual basis that the quarterly reports furnished during 
the year were prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and 
methodology authorized pursuant to Section 2.3 (c) hereof.

    (b)  JV REPORTING.  Prior to the formation of the JV, the Management 
Committee will determine the appropriate reporting requirements and 
procedures, including the timing and method of calculating the preliminary 
and the final Operating Profits of the JV, the reporting of Net Sales in the 
Royalty Territory and the manner in which payments or refunds of overpayments 
will be made, but in no event shall such payments be made less frequently 
than sixty (60) days after each Calendar Quarter.  The reporting requirements 
and procedures of the JV will be based on the approved Marketing Plans.  The 
Management Committee shall review the reporting requirements and procedures 
of the JV when appropriate in light of changes to the Marketing Plans, 
changes in or financial statement reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding 
the foregoing, the Collaborators agree that Chiron will be responsible for 
compiling the financial statements


                                     -31-

of the JV and, if the JV is organized as a partnership, shall be the Tax 
Partner for federal income tax purposes.

                 PART III - ACTIVITIES IN ROYALTY TERRITORY

    ARTICLE 7 - DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALIZATION ACTIVITIES IN 
                ROYALTY TERRITORY

    SECTION 7.1  DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALIZATION RESPONSIBILITIES.  Chiron 
shall be responsible for conducting, at its own cost and expense, all 
activities relating to the development, manufacture and marketing of the 
Products in the Royalty Territory including, without limitation the 
establishment of a sales force or distribution network and the promotion and 
sale of Products.  All Regulatory Approvals and Pricing Approvals in the 
Royalty Territory shall be in the name of Chiron.

    SECTION 7.2  COORDINATION WITH COLLABORATION.

    (a)  Chiron shall consult with the Development and Marketing Committees 
with respect to the following activities:

         (i)  the preparation of its development and marketing plans for the 
              Products in the Royalty Territory;

         (ii)  the preparation of Product labelling and promotional materials 
               to be used with Products in the Royalty Territory; 

         (iii)  the designation of Trademarks for the Products in the Royalty 
                Territory; and 

         (iv)  the choice of supplier of the Products to be developed or sold 
               in the Royalty Territory.

Subject to Section 4.6, the plans for these activities will be submitted to 
the Management Committee for review and approval reasonably in advance of the 
specified activity, which approval shall not be withheld except on the 
grounds that the proposal is commercially unreasonable.  The members of the 
Management Committee in reviewing and approving the proposed activities of 
Chiron shall act in the interests of the Collaboration and not with regard to 
the individual interests of Chiron or Cephalon.  Chiron shall keep the 
Management Committee informed of its progress under its development and 
marketing plans in the Royalty Territory.

    (b)  Chiron shall not sublicense or enter into any comarketing, 
copromotion or similar arrangement in the Royalty Territory without the prior 
approval of the Management Committee

                                     -32-


<PAGE>


(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), excluding wholesaling, 
distribution and consignment arrangements, where the third party does not 
market or promote the Products. Nothwithstanding the foregoing, CIBA is 
hereby approved for purposes of marketing Products in the Royalty Territory, 
upon terms to be approved by the Management Committee (which approval shall 
not be withheld except on the grounds that the terms are commercially 
unreasonable).

    SECTION 7.3 DILIGENCE IN COMMERCIALIZATION OF PRODUCTS. Chiron shall use 
commercially reasonable efforts, commensurate with those efforts used for its 
other products of similar potential and consistent with its obligations under 
the development and marketing plans approved under Section 7.2 hereof, to 
commercialize the products in the Royalty Territory and to obtain all 
Regulatory Approvals and Pricing Approvals needed in the Royalty Territory 
for such purposes.


    SECTION 7.4 OWNERSHIP OF DATA. All clinical data developed by Chiron for 
purposes of Regulatory Approvals in the Royalty Territory shall be owned by 
Chiron, but may be used in the Field and Territory by Chiron, Cephalon and 
the JV pursuant to the licenses granted under Article 5 hereof and may be 
used by Chiron outside the Field and outside the Territory without limitation.

    SECTION 7.5 NO ALLOWABLE EXPENSES. None of the costs and expenses 
incurred by Chiron in connection with the Royalty Territory shall be an 
Allowable Expense hereunder unless expressly approved as such by the 
Management Committee.

    SECTION 7.6 ASSISTANCE BY THE JV. Chiron may request the assistance of the 
JV or Cephalon in the development and commercialization activities related to 
the Product. Any such assistance shall be provided upon mutually acceptable 
terms.

    SECTION 7.7 CONTINGENT CEPHALON MARKETING RIGHTS.

         (a) EVENTS. Cephalon shall have the right (but not the obligation) to 
detail Products in a country within the Royalty Territory if:

              (i) Chiron participates, directly or indirectly, in the 
                  marketing, sale or distribution of any product in that
                  country that directly competes with an indication included
                  in a Regulatory Approval for a Product in the same country;
                  and

              (ii) Chiron has failed to diligently develop and commercialize 
                   such Product under Section 7.3 hereof in that country.


                                     -33-
<PAGE>

          (b)  PROCEDURES.  Cephalon shall give Chiron written notice of the 
existence of the conditions described in clause (a) above, and Chiron shall 
have a period of 90 days in which to cure. If the conditions have not been 
adequately cured in Cephalon's reasonable judgment by the end of such period, 
Cephalon's right to detail shall be effective upon written notice from 
Cephalon to Chiron at which time Cephalon shall be entitled to detail all 
Products in such country on a nonexclusive basis. Cephalon shall be paid a 
reasonable fee by the JV for such activities and Cephalon's costs to detail 
the Products shall not be an Allowable Expense. Chiron's obligations to 
compensate the JV under Article 8 shall continue as to any Products continued 
to be marketed and sold by it or detailed by Cephalon, except that the 
royalty payable with respect to such Net Sales shall be reduced to the rate 
determined under Section 8.1(b) hereof as to any Product that Cephalon is 
detailing. The election by Cephalon to detail Products in the Royalty 
Territory shall not affect Chiron's rights under this Agreement.

                  ARTICLE 8 - ROYALTIES AND REPORTS, ETC.

     SECTION 8.1  ROYALTIES.  In consideration of the licenses granted to 
Chiron under Section 5.4 hereof, Chiron shall pay to the JV in each country 
within the Royalty Territory a royalty equal to:

          (a)  [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the Net Sales of a Product
containing IGF-1 for a particular indication in any country where the Product 
has Market Exclusivity for that indication; and

          (b)  [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the Net Sales of a Product
containing IGF-1 for a particular indication in any country where the Product 
does not have Market Exclusivity for that indication; and

          (c)  in the case of any Product containing a Compound other than 
IGF-1, a reasonable royalty to be negotiated by the Collaborators in good 
faith (which shall be not less than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of Net 
Sales), to be determined upon the request of either Collaborator but in no event
later than the first commercialization of a Product in the Royalty Territory.

     SECTION 8.2  ROYALTY RATE ADJUSTMENTS.

          (a)  The royalty rate payable under Section 8.1(a) shall be reduced 
by an equitable amount to be determined by the Management Committee with 
respect to a Product in a country in the Royalty Territory if a product 
containing the same Compound either (i) is being sold by a third party (other 
than a third party having rights through a Collaborator) in that country for 
the same indication, or (ii) is approved for an indication in that country 
covered by the patent used to establish Market

                               -34-

<PAGE>

Exclusivity for the indication in the same country and there is no other basis 
for establishing Market Exclusivity as to the Product indication in that 
country.

          (b)  The royalty rate payable under Section 8.1(b) for a particular 
country in the Royalty Territory shall be increased to the rate specified in 
Section 8.1(a) with respect to a Product in such country in the Royalty 
Territory if Cephalon can reasonably demonstrate that even without Market 
Exclusivity, there is no significant competition for the Product in that 
country with respect to the indication for which the Product received 
Regulatory Approval in the country. For purposes of this provision, 
"significant competition" means sales of a product by a third party or third 
parties (other than third parties authorized by a Collaborator under this 
Agreement) constitute more than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED]

          (c)  If a royalty rate specified in Section 8.1 is such that Chiron, 
after paying such royalties, would not receive a fair return on sales of the 
Products because of market conditions outside of its control, Cephalon and 
Chiron shall meet and confer as to whether the royalty rates should be 
reduced to provide Chiron with a fair allocation of the economic 
benefits in the Royalty Territory. Conversely, if the royalty rates specified 
in Section 8.1 are such that the JV's share of profits from the royalties on 
sales of Products in the Royalty Territory is less than the share of profits 
anticipated by the parties as of the Effective Date, Cephalon and Chiron shall 
meet and confer as to whether the royalty rates should be increased to 
provide the JV with a fair allocation of the economic benefits in the Royalty 
Territory, but in no event shall any such increase exceed a royalty rate of 
[CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of Net Sales. Any such adjustment may be made
on a country-by-country and Product-by-Product basis.

          (d)  The royalty rates payable by Chiron to the JV under Section 
8.1 shall be subject to increase to provide Cephalon with a share of 
Operating Profits of the JV that is sufficient to pay any royalty or other 
compensation Cephalon may owe CCP under an Amended and Restated Product 
Development Agreement dated as of August 11, 1992 (the "CCP Agreement"), in a 
country within the CCP Territory. For purposes of this clause (d), the term 
"CCP Territory" means the geographic area encompassed by the following 
countries on the date hereof: Albania, Andorra, Bulgaria, the Commonwealth of 
Independent States, Cyprus, Czechoslovakia, Gibraltar, Hungary, Iceland, 
Liechtenstein, Malta, Monaco, Poland, Romania, San Marino, Turkey and 
Yugoslavia. The term "CCP Territory" shall also include the geographic area 
encompassed by any of the republics that were formerly part of the U.S.S.R. 
and Yugoslavia, regardless of whether such republics are as of the date hereof 
members of the

                                    -35-

<PAGE>

Commonwealth of Independent States or Yugoslavia, as applicable. Chiron and 
Cephalon shall meet and confer as to whether the royalty rates payable by 
Chiron to the JV under Section 8.1 should be increased with respect to any 
country or Product to provide Cephalon with a share of Operating Profits of 
the JV that is sufficient to provide a fair return to Cephalon.

          (e)  The royalty rates under Section 8.1 also are subject to 
reduction under Sections 9.2 and 9.3 hereof.

     SECTION 8.3  ALLOCATIONS OF NET SALES IN THE ROYALTY TERRITORY.

          (a)  OFF-LABEL SALES.  If a Product of the Collaboration receives 
Regulatory Approval in the Royalty Territory prior to the receipt by Chiron 
(or its licensee or joint development partner) of Regulatory Approval in the 
Royalty Territory of a product containing the same Compound as the Product 
for an indication outside the Field, then all sales of such Product used for 
any indication (whether inside or outside the Field) in the Royalty Territory 
shall be included in the Net Sales used to calculate the royalty payable by 
Chiron pursuant to Section 8.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, [CONFIDENTIAL 
TREATMENT REQUESTED] All sales of the Product used in any indication outside 
the Field (according to market reports accepted in the industry) in a country 
in the Royalty Territory shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the 
royalty payable by Chiron pursuant to Section 8.1 in such country when Chiron
(or its licensee or joint development partner) receives Regulatory Approval 
for an indication outside the Field for such Product either in such country 
itself or in any country in the Major Markets, whichever occurs first.

          (b)  SALES FOR DIABETES.  The portion of Net Sales in any country in 
the Royalty Territory that is deemed to be sales of an IGF-1 Product for 
diabetic neuropathy in such country shall be determined in accordance with 
Section 6.2(b).

     SECTION 8.4  THIRD PARTY ROYALTIES.  Chiron shall be responsible for any 
royalties or other compensation owed by either Collaborator under the 
agreements specified on SCHEDULE IV to any third party as a result of 
Chiron's commercialization of Products in the Royalty Territory including, 
without limitation, compensation payable pursuant to the CIBA Agreement and 
pursuant to the SIBIA Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) Cephalon 
shall be responsible for any royalties owed by it pursuant to the CCP 
Agreement, (ii) Chiron may offset royalties

                                 -36-


<PAGE>

payable to certain third parties to the extent provided in Section 9.2(e), 
and (iii) Chiron may include in the determination of Net Sales subject to 
royalty under Section 8.1, a deduction for any royalty payable to a third 
party in any country in the Royalty Territory under any license or similar 
agreement that has been approved by the Management Committee under Section 
5.9, but in no event shall the total deductions for such royalties reduce the 
royalty payment by more than 50% in the aggregate.

   SECTION 8.5  PAYMENT OF ROYALTIES. Royalties payable to the JV under 
Section 8.1 shall be due within sixty (60) days after the end of the Calendar 
Quarter in which Net Sales were recorded by Chiron.

   SECTION 8.6  REPORTS. Unless otherwise agreed by Cephalon and Chiron, 
Chiron shall deliver to the JV within sixty (60) days after the end of each 
Calendar Quarter in which royalties are due a report of the chief financial 
officer of Chiron, setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the 
royalties payable to the JV for such Calendar Quarter, including the Net 
Sales on a Product by Product and country-by-country basis. In addition, 
within ninety (90) days after the close of each calendar year, Chiron, upon 
Cephalon's request, shall cause its independent public accountants to prepare 
a report confirming the procedures performed in reviewing the accuracy of the 
aggregate Net Sales and calculation of royalties payable to the JV under 
Section 8.1 for that calendar year. Cephalon shall reimburse Chiron for the 
reasonable costs of such review.

   SECTION 8.7  CURRENCY RESTRICTIONS. If Chiron is prevented from making any 
royalty payment to the JV under this Agreement by virtue of restrictions on 
currency conversion or repatriation under the statutes, laws, codes or 
governmental regulations of the country from which the payment is to be made, 
then such royalty payments may be paid by depositing them in the currency in 
which accrued to the JV's account in a bank acceptable to the JV in the 
country whose currency is involved.

   SECTION 8.8  TAXES. All taxes, assessments and fees of any nature levied or 
incurred on account of any payments accruing under this Agreement by 
national, state or local governments in the Royalty Territory, will be 
assumed and paid by Chiron, except taxes levied thereon as income to the JV. 
If taxes payable by the JV are required to be withheld by Chiron, they will 
be deducted from such payments due to the JV and will be paid by Chiron for 
the account of the JV.

                         PART IV - GENERAL PROVISIONS

                  ARTICLE 9 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MATTERS

   SECTION 9.1  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTIONS.

      (a) CONTROL. Each Collaborator shall be responsible for and shall have 
the right to control the prosecution, maintenance, reissue, reexamination, 
renewal and extension of the patent applications, issued patents and 
Trademarks included in the intellectual property in the Territory licensed by 
it to the other Collaborator or to the JV pursuant to Article 5 hereof. Each 
Collaborator, upon reasonable request, shall report to the Management 
Committee the status of any such activities and shall furnish copies of any 
correspondence, file wrappers, office actions and such other documents as the 
Management Committee shall reasonably require to monitor the activities in 
the Territory. If a Collaborator elects not to continue the prosecution of 
any application, reissue, reexamination, renewal or extension or to pay any 
maintenance fee related to any such intellectual property right, it shall 
notify the Management Committee of such decision at least thirty (30) days in 
advance of the due date for such action or payment, and the other 
Collaborator shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume 
responsibility therefor. Cephalon shall be responsible for coordinating its 
activities with CCP and Chiron shall be responsible for coordinating its 
activities with CIBA.

      (b) COOPERATION. Each Collaborator shall cooperate with the other 
Collaborator to facilitate the activities under paragraph (a) above, 
including, without limitation, executing all lawful papers and instruments 
and making all rightful oaths and declarations as may be necessary in the 
preparation and prosecution of the patent applications, issued patents, 
Trademarks and other rights included in the JV Technology or in the transfer 
of any prosecution obligations under Section 9.1(a).

      (c) ALLOWABLE EXPENSES. The Costs incurred by a Collaborator under this 
Section 9.1 shall be an Allowable Expense to the extent approved by the 
Management Committee as attributable to the Products in the Major Markets. 
The Costs incurred by a Collaborator that are attributable to the Products in 
the Royalty Territory shall be borne by the Collaborator.

   SECTION 9.2  DEFENSE OF INFRINGEMENT CLAIMS.

      (a) NOTICE. If a claim is asserted against Chiron, Cephalon or the JV 
by a third party alleging infringement of the third party's intellectual 
property rights resulting from the development, manufacture, use or sale of a 
Product in the 

                                      -38-
<PAGE>

Territory, it shall promptly notify the other parties of such claim.

      (b) DEFENSE OF CLAIM. The Collaborator against whom the claim has been 
made shall control the defense of a claim attributable to the Products in the 
Major Markets. Chiron shall be obligated to defend Cephalon and to control 
the defense of a claim asserted in the Royalty Territory.

      (c) COSTS AND JUDGMENTS IN THE MAJOR MARKETS. The reasonable Costs 
(including any judgments or monetary damages awarded in an action) incurred 
by a Collaborator in defending an infringement claim shall be an Allowable 
Expense to the extent approved by the Management Committee as attributable to 
the Products in the Major Markets.

      (d) COSTS AND JUDGMENTS IN THE ROYALTY TERRITORY. Chiron shall pay its 
out-of-pocket costs (including attorneys' fees) of defending a claim 
attributable to the Products in the Royalty Territory, except that Chiron 
may apply 100% of its reasonable out-of-pocket costs actually incurred 
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) as a credit against any royalty 
payments payable to the JV under Section 8.1 hereof. If any damages 
(excluding punitive or exemplary damages) awarded against Chiron in a 
judgment or order related to such claim are stated to be compensation to the 
plaintiff for lost sales, 50% of such amount, to the extent not covered by 
insurance, may be offset against the royalties payable under Section 8.1. If 
Chiron licenses intellectual property rights to settle such claim in a 
settlement that has been approved by Cephalon, Chiron may reduce the 
royalties payable under Section 8.1 by 50% of the royalty payable to the 
third party.

   SECTION 9.3  PROSECUTION OF THIRD PARTY INFRINGEMENTS.

      (a) NOTICE. Cephalon and Chiron shall promptly give written notice to 
the other party and to the Management Committee of any infringement or 
possible infringement of any of the JV Technology by a third party in the 
Territory.

      (b) CONTROL OF PROSECUTION IN THE MAJOR MARKETS. The Collaborator 
owning the infringed technology right may, at its discretion, take such steps 
as it deems necessary or desirable to prosecute any such infringement 
attributable to Products in the Major Markets. If the Collaborator owning the 
technology right does not bring suit or take other appropriate action within 
120 days after receiving notice of such claim, the JV (or the Collaborator, 
if the JV so elects) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to bring 
suit or take other appropriate action with respect to the infringed right. 
If the right consists of a joint invention or other JV Technology not owned 
solely by a 

                                      -39-
<PAGE>

Collaborator, the Management Committee shall determine the appropriate 
procedures for handling the alleged infringement.

          (c) COSTS AND RECOVERIES IN THE MAJOR MARKETS.  All monetary 
damages awarded in any action against a third party under paragraph (b) that 
are attributable to a Product within the Major Markets shall be treated as Net 
Sales of the Collaboration in the calculation of Operating Profits. The JV 
may retain 100% of any recovery in any proceeding brought by it, except that 
any recovery explicitly attributable to a subject matter other than the 
Products shall be remitted to the Collaborator who owns the technology right 
at issue.

          (d)  CONTROL OF PROSECUTION IN THE ROYALTY TERRITORY.  The JV, 
through the Management Committee, shall have the right, but not the 
obligation, to control the prosecution of an infringement claim attributable 
to the Products in the Royalty Territory. If within forty-five (45) days after 
receiving notice of such claim, the JV informs Chiron that it declines to 
prosecute any such claim, Chiron shall have the right, but not the 
obligation, to bring the claim.

          (e)  COSTS AND RECOVERIES IN THE ROYALTY TERRITORY.  The 
prosecuting party shall pay its out-of-pocket costs (including attorneys' 
fees) of prosecuting the claim and shall be entitled to retain any award in 
such action, except that if Chiron prosecutes the claim, it shall pay the JV 
a royalty under Section 8.1 as to any portion of an award it receives that is 
stated to be compensation for lost sales (after deducting a proportionate share 
of Chiron's legal costs and expenses attributable to the award).

     SECTION 9.4  JOINDER.  Any party prosecuting or defending a claim under 
this Article 9 shall have the right to join the other party in such 
proceeding, only if it is necessary to use the other party's name to prosecute 
or defend such action; however, the prosecuting party shall indemnify the 
joined party against any liabilities asserted against the joined party solely 
by virtue of being named in the prosecution and independent of any conduct by 
the joined party.

     SECTION 9.5  SETTLEMENT OF CLAIMS.  Neither Collaborator may settle a 
claim described in this Article 9 without the consent of the other 
Collaborator, if such settlement would impose any monetary obligation on the 
JV or the other Collaborator or require the JV or the other Collaborator to 
submit to an injunction or otherwise limit the JV's or the other 
Collaborator's rights under this Agreement.

     SECTION 9.6  COOPERATION.  In conducting the defense or prosecution of 
any claim described in this Article 9, Cephalon and Chiron shall consult with 
and keep the Management Committee

                               - 40 -

<PAGE>

informed of the status of the action. Upon reasonable request, the JV and the 
Collaborators shall assist the person or persons controlling the defense or 
prosecution of an infringement claim, the Costs of which shall be an

          (b)  TRADEMARKS IN ROYALTY TERRITORY.  Chiron's selection of

specified in Schedule V hereto, consistently applied, in sufficient detail to 
allow the calculation of Allowable Expenses and Operating Profits under 
Article 6 and the calculation of royalties under Article 8 to be verified. 
The Collaborators and the JV shall retain such records for so long as the 
Management Committee shall specify, and, in the event of a disagreement as to 
the necessity of retention, or upon the dissolution of the JV, either 
Collaborator may take possession of such records or copies thereof.

          (b)  ACCESS AND INSPECTION.  The Collaborators shall have 
reasonable access to the books and records of the JV while in the possession 
of the JV, and each Collaborator, at its own expense (which shall not be an 
Allowable Expense) and upon reasonable prior notice, shall have the right to 
have such books and records examined and audited by outside auditors. Each 
Collaborator shall make its relevant books and records available

                              - 42 -

                    ARTICLE 11 - CERTAIN REGULATORY MATTERS

             SECTION 11.1 GOVERNMENTAL INSPECTIONS AND INQUIRIES

         (a) Each Collaborator shall advise the Management Committee of any 
governmental visits to, or written or oral inquiries about, any facilities or 
procedures for the manufacture, storage or handling of a Product in the 
Territory, promptly (but in no event later than fifteen (15) calendar days) 
after such visit or inquiry. Each Collaborator shall furnish to the Management 
Committee, within fifteen (15) days after receipt, a copy of any report or 
correspondence issued by the governmental authority in connection with such 
visit or inquiry, purged only of confidential or proprietary 
information that is unrelated to the Products or the activities under this
Agreement.

         (b) Each Collaborator also shall advise the other Collaborator of 
any inquiry, notice or investigation initiated or made by any governmental 
authority relating to the promotion, advertisement, marketing or sale of the 
Products or any of its other activities under this Agreement.  The 
Collaborators shall cooperate and consult with each other in responding to 
the governmental authority.

    SECTION 11.2 ADVERSE REACTIONS.  The Development Committee shall 
establish procedures by which each Collaborator will receive notice from the 
other Collaborator and the JV, and will report to the JV and the other 
Collaborator, any adverse drug reactions related to a Product (including 
events related to products containing the same active ingredient as 
Products outside the Field and/or outside the Territory). The procedures shall 
be established by the Development Committee promptly after the Effective Date. 
Until such procedures ard approved, each Collaborator shall use its customary 
procedures in complying with the reporting requirements of applicable law and 
shall promptly furnish a written copy of any such report to the other 
Collaborator. Prior to the establishment of the JV, Cephalon shall serve as 
the reporting party for adverse events related to the Products.

     SECTION 11.3 RECALLS AND MARKET WITHDRAWALS. If at any time (i) any 
governmental or regulatory authority issues a request, directive, or order 
that a Product be recalled or


                                     -43-


<PAGE>


withdrawn, or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction orders such a recall or 
withdrawal in a Major Market, or (iii) the Management Committee determines 
that a Product should be recalled in a Major Market, the parties shall take 
all appropriate corrective actions to effect the recall or withdrawal. If a 
dispute about the necessity of a recall can not be resolved in accordance 
with Section 15.1 hereof, either Collaborator may order a recall (without 
proceeding to arbitration under Section 15.2) if in its reasonable judgment 
it is required to do so by law. The cost and expenses of notification and 
destruction or return of the recalled or withdrawn Product in a Major Market 
shall be an Allowable Expense.

                      ARTICLE 12 - CONFIDENTIALITY, ETC.

     SECTION 12.1 CONFIDENTIALITY.

          (a) INFORMATION RECEIVED FROM OTHER PARTY. Each Collaborator (a 
"Recipient") will keep in confidence any confidential or proprietary 
information (the "Confidential Information") received from the other 
Collaborator (the "Furnishing Party"), whether furnished before or after 
the Effective Date. The foregoing obligations shall not apply to, and the 
definition of "Confidential Information" does not include:

              (i) information that at the time of the use or disclosure by 
    the Recipient was already in the public domain other than through the 
    fault of the Recipient or its employees, licensees, agents or 
    subcontractors, in violation hereof;

              (ii) information that was rightfully known by the Recipient (as
    shown by its written records) prior to the date of disclosure by the 
    Furnishing Party to the Recipient in connection with this Agreement; or

              (iii) information that was received by the Recipient on an 
    unrestricted basis from a source under no duty of confidentiality to the
    Furnishing Party; or

              (iv) information that Recipient believes in good faith is
    required to be disclosed to comply with any applicable law, regulation or
    order of a government authority of court of competent jurisdiction 
    (including any securities laws applicable to a Collaborator), in which 
    event the disclosing party shall use all reasonable efforts to advise the
    other Collaborator in advance of the need for such disclosure; or


                                     -44-


<PAGE>


              (v) information that is independently developed by the 
    Recipient without reliance on the Confidential Information.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that each Collaborator may 
disclose Confidential Information to its employees, licensees, consultants, 
contractors and agents if such persons are subject in writing to obligations 
of confidentiality with respect to such information to the same extent the 
Collaborator is so obligated hereunder.

    INFORMATION DEVELOPED FOR COLLABORATION. Information in the Field 
that is developed by a Collaborator in the conduct of a specific objective or 
activity under a Development Plan and which would be proprietary to the 
Collaborator shall be treated as Confidential Information by both 
Collaborators. Any disclosure or publication of such information shall be 
subject to the approval of the Management Committee (which approval shall not 
be unreasonably withheld). A Collaborator shall not be obligated to treat any 
other information developed by it (whether before or during the Collaboration)
as Confidential Information.

    SECTION 12.2 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. Each Collaborator acknowledges that damages 
for breach of the covenants contained in Section 12.1 would be an inadequate 
remedy, and that in the event of any such breach, the other Collaborator 
shall be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in addition to 
any and all remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of 
damages and reasonable attorneys' fees.

    SECTION 12.3 PUBLICITY. The Collaborators shall consult with each other 
and coordinate all press releases and similar public announcements by the 
Collaborator concerning the existence and terms of this Agreement and the 
activities and progress of the Collaboration.  The Collaborators shall not 
disclose the confidential terms of such agreements to any third parties 
without the prior written consent of the other party or parties thereto. This 
Section 12.3 shall not apply to the extent that any disclosure is (a) of 
information in the public domain other than through the fault of the 
Collaborator or its employees, licensees, agents or subcontractors, in 
violation hereof, (b) believed in good faith to be required to comply with 
any applicable law, regulation or order of a government authority of court of 
competent jurisdiction (including any securities laws applicable to a 
Collaborator), in which event the disclosing party shall use all reasonable 
efforts to advise the other Collaborator in advance of the need for such 
disclosure, or (c) is made, under confidentiality, to a recipient who is a 
licensor, licensee or potential licensor or licensee and to whom such 
disclosure is reasonably required to define the scope of rights


                                     -45-


<PAGE>


which could be granted to the recipient without violating the terms of this 
Agreement.

<PAGE>

      SECTION 13.2  NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS.  Neither Collaborator shall

(including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) (collectively, 
"Liabilities") resulting from a claim asserted by a third party arising out 
of the manufacture, marketing, sale or use of a Product in the Territory, 
including, without limitation, any claim in the nature of product liability 
(whether under theories of strict liability, negligence, breach of warranty 
or otherwise). If any such claim is asserted against both Collaborators 
and/or the JV, the Management Committee shall control the defense of the 
claim.

          (a)  MAJOR MARKETS.  Except as provided in Article 9 hereof, the 
Costs (including any judgments or monetary damages awarded in an action)

representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, or (ii) any act or 
omission constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct by the 
Collaborator or the JV in the development, manufacturing, labelling, 
promotion, marketing or sale of a Product or any other activity conducted by 
it under this Agreement (each, an "Excluded Liability").

          (b)  ROYALTY TERRITORY.  Except as provided in Article 9 hereof, 
the Costs (including any judgments or monetary damages awarded in an action) 
incurred by the Collaborators or the JV in defending against any claim 
described in Section 14.2 shall be borne by the defending party (and shall 
not be an Allowable Expense) to the extent attributable to the Products in 
the Royalty Territory, unless the claim constitutes an Excluded Liability of 
the other Collaborator, in which case the defending party may seek indemnity 
from the other Collaborator under Section 14.4 hereof.

      SECTION 14.4  INDEMNITY FOR EXCLUDED LIABILITIES.  Each Collaborator 
and the JV (as such, an "Indemnifying Party") shall indemnify, defend and

submit to an injunction or otherwise limit the other party's rights under 
this Agreement.

one of whom is selected by Cephalon, one of whom is selected by Chiron, and

      (a) TERMINATION FOR COMMERCIAL FAILURE. This Agreement may be 
terminated in full by either Collaborator, upon 180 calendar days written

shall, at its election, be a "Continuing Licensee" for purposes of Section 
16.5(b) hereof.

      (b) TERMINATION UPON BREACH. This Agreement may be terminated in full 
by either Collaborator upon material breach by the other Collaborator of any

non-breaching party is denied in a substantial respect the economic benefit 
of this Agreement and such breach is not substantially cured within sixty 
(60) calendar days after the non-breaching Collaborator gives the breaching 
Collaborator written notice of such breach. The terminating Collaborator 
shall, at its election, be a "Continuing Licensee" for purposes of Section

      indirectly, of securities of the Collaborator representing 50% or more

                                     -50-
<PAGE>

            (ii) the membership of the Collaborator's Board of Directors 
      changes as a result of one or more contested elections within a two 
      year period such that individuals who were members of such Board prior 
      to any such contested election no longer make up a majority of such 
      Board; or

            (iii) stockholders of the Collaborator approve a merger, plan of
      consolidation, the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of 
      such Collaborator's assets, or a plan of partial or complete liquidation
      of such Collaborator;

then the Collaborator experiencing the Change of Control shall promptly 
furnish the other Collaborator with written notice describing such event 
(reasonably in advance of such event, if possible, but in no event later than 
ten (10) days after such event).

   SECTION 16.4 PARTIAL TERMINATION IN ROYALTY TERRITORY.  Chiron may

option of the Collaborator balancing the deficiency, does not result in a 
current charge to the earnings of such Collaborator.

   (b) RIGHTS OF A CONTINUING LICENSEE.

            (I) SURVIVING LICENSES. A Collaborator who is a Continuing 
      Licensee may elect to have the applicable licenses granted to it or to 
      the JV under Article 5 convert into an exclusive license to the 
      Continuing Licensee, which shall survive termination of this Agreement 
      until the Continuing Licensee ceases to develop or commercialize 
      Products. The other Collaborator shall transfer to the Continuing 
      Licensee, upon request, all Confidential Information necessary or 
      useful for the manufacture, use or sale of the applicable Product in 
      its possession. In addition, the Continuing Licensee may elect to cause 
      the other Collaborator and the JV to transfer all Regulatory Approvals, 
      Pricing Approvals, marketing approvals, customer lists, contracts, 
      information or any other right that is necessary or useful for the 
      development, manufacture, use,

                                     -51-
<PAGE>

marketing or sale of the applicable Product or Products. The other 
Collaborator shall take such steps as are reasonably required to transfer all 
such approvals, contracts, information and rights to enable the Continuing 
Licensee to assume the business of developing, marketing and selling the 
applicable Product or Products.

     (ii) SUPPLY OF PRODUCTS. If the Continuing Licensee is not supplying 
any of the applicable Product or Products under this Agreement, it may either 
require the other party to continue to supply the applicable Product or 
Products, upon the terms and for the period described below, or cause the 
other party to transfer the required technology to the Continuing Licensee.

     If a Continuing Licensee elects to require the other party to continue 
to supply Products, it shall pay the supplying party, on a quarterly basis, 
an amount equal to [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] for all Products 
continued to be supplied hereunder. The supplying party shall only be 
obligated to supply Products for a reasonable transition period, which period 
shall not exceed [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] from the date that the 
Collaborator elects to become a Continuing Licensee. The Continuing Licensee
shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to identify a replacement 
manufacturer or establish a manufacturing facility for the Products in a 
timely manner. The supplying party shall take such steps as are reasonably 
required to enable the Continuing Licensee to assume the business of producing
the Products. If for any reason the supplying party is not legally permitted 
to transfer the necessary technology or rights to the Continuing Licensee for 
these purposes, the supplying party will continue to provide the applicable 
Product or Products under this Agreement or to otherwise make available to the
Continuing Licensee the benefits of this Section 16.4, pursuant to 
commercially reasonable terms to be mutually agreed upon by the parties. Any 
amounts owed by the Continuing Licensee for Product supply under this 
Agreement shall be set off against the amount, if any, of unbalanced 
Allowable Expenses of the Continuing Licensee existing as of the effective 
termination date of this Agreement.

    If a Continuing Licensee elects to cause a transfer of the required 
technology to manufacture Products, the transferring party shall take such 
steps as are reasonably required to enable the Continuing Licensee to 
manufacture (or have manufactured) the Products, including, without 
limitation, by providing to the Continuing Licensee: (x) all manufacturing 
information and descriptions of the applicable technology and processes in 
sufficient detail to permit the manufacture of the Products in commercial 
quantities in an efficient manner; (y) samples of all organisms or 
other biological material used in producing such Products; and (z) training 
of personnel as may be


                                        -52-

<PAGE>

necessary to permit the manufacture of the Products. The Continuing Licensee 
shall pay the transferring party a royalty on sales of Products at a rate to 
be negotiated by the parties in good faith at the time of such license, but 
shall not be more than [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of the royalties 
payable by Chiron under Article 8 hereof.

     (c) NON-COMPETE. A Collaborator that is not a Continuing Licensee shall 
refrain from selling Products in the Field in the Territory and shall 
refrain from participating, directly or indirectly, in any business, 
partnership, collaboration, license arrangement or other enterprise engaged 
in the business of the development, manufacture, marketing, use, distribution 
or sale of Products in the Field and in the Territory for a period of five 
(5) years after the termination date.

    (d) ROYALTY TERRITORY.

        (i) Cephalon shall have the right to assume Chiron's rights and 
     obligations as to any country or Product in the Royalty Territory upon 
     any termination of such country or Product under Section 16.4. However,
     no such assumption by Cephalon shall operate as waiver of or otherwise 
     extinguish Chiron's obligations for liabilities accrued prior to the 
     termination date. Chiron shall cooperate with Cephalon to allow Cephalon
     to conduct its business under this Agreement in a timely manner, including
     taking such steps as are reasonably required to allow Cephalon to obtain 
     supplies of Products for purposes of this Agreement. 

        (ii) Upon termination of a country or Product in the Royalty Territory
     by Chiron pursuant to Section 16.4, Chiron shall promptly deliver to the 
     JV or Cephalon, as applicable, all promotional materials and other data, 
     information, test results, marketing information, customer lists and 
     records, distributor lists and records, and any other information under 
     Chiron's control that is related to the manufacture, marketing or sale of
     the applicable Product or Products in the applicable country or countries
     within the Royalty Territory. Chiron also shall promptly transfer any 
     Regulatory Approvals and Pricing Approvals for the applicable Product or 
     Products in the applicable country or countries in the Royalty Territory
     to the JV or Cephalon, as applicable, to the extent permitted by law.

        (iii) Chiron may sell remaining inventory and finished goods for a 
     Product or Products as to which Chiron has terminated pursuant to Section 
     16.4 for a period not to exceed six (6) months, subject to the royalty 
     obligations and other provisions of this Agreement. Any inventory of

                                    -53-


<PAGE>

     Product remaining at the end of such period shall be transferred 
     pursuant to the instructions of the JV or Cephalon, the costs of which 
     shall be borne by the JV or Cephalon, as applicable.


     SECTION 16.6 TERMINATION UPON CCP TRANSFER. If for any reason Cephalon, 
after consultation with Chiron, either elects not to exercise its right to 
purchase the limited partnership interests of CCP under the Purchase 
Agreement included in the Cephalon Agreements, or Cephalon's rights under 
this Agreement are transferred to CCP for any other reason (including breach 
under the terms of the applicable Cephalon Agreements), Cephalon may transfer 
its rights under this Agreement to CCP, unless either CCP or Chiron elects to 
terminate this Agreement, upon 90 days written notice of termination to the 
other. In the event of such termination, any license to a Continuing Licensee 
under Section 16.5 hereof also shall terminate, the Chiron Technology shall 
revert to Chiron and the Cephalon Technology shall revert to CCP, subject to 
the perpetual licenses under Section 5.1 hereof.

     SECTION 16.7 EFFECTIVE DATE OF TERMINATION. Unless otherwise provided 
herein, a termination notice pursuant to this Article 16 shall be effective 
on the date of delivery of written notice of termination to the other party 
hereto.

     SECTION 16.8 SURVIVAL. Neither Collaborator nor the JV shall be relieved 
of its obligations to pay any sums of money due or payable or accrued under 
this Agreement as of the date of such termination. All accounts between the 
Collaborators and the JV shall be settled in full within ninety (90) days 
following the termination of this Agreement under Section 16.2. Article 12, 
Section 16.5 and this Section 16.7 shall survive the termination of this 
Agreement. In addition, any provision required to interpret and enforce the 
parties rights and obligations under this Agreement also shall survive to the 
extent required for the full observation and performance of this Agreement in 
accordance with its terms.

    SECTION 16.9 REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE. Termination by either Collaborator 
pursuant to this Article 16 shall not prejudice any other remedy that such 
party might have in law or equity with the exception, however, of claiming 
compensation for loss or damages resulting from such termination.


                            ARTICLE 17 - MISCELLANEOUS

     SECTION 17.1 ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement contains the 
entire understanding of the Collaborators with respect to the subject matter 
hereof and supersedes all previous verbal and written agreements, 
representations and warranties.

                                     -54-


<PAGE>

This Agreement may be released, waived or modified only by written agreement 
signed by the party against whom enforcement of any release, waiver, 
modification, or other change is sought.

     SECTION 17.2  REFERENCES TO CIBA.  All references to CIBA in this 
Agreement shall be effective for so long as CIBA has the right of first 
refusal to sell or promote products containing IGF-1 under the CIBA 
Agreement. If at any time CIBA ceases to have such right, all references to 
CIBA's rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be of no further 
force and effect.

     SECTION 17.3  FORCE MAJEURE.  Failure of any party to perform its 
obligations under this Agreement (except the obligation to make payments) 
shall not subject such party to any liability or place them in breach of any 
term or condition of this Agreement to the other party if such failure is 
caused by any cause beyond the reasonable control of such nonperforming 
party, including without limitation acts of God, fire, explosion, flood, 
drought, war, riot, sabotage, embargo, strikes or other labor trouble, 
failure in whole or in part of suppliers to deliver on schedule materials, 
equipment or machinery, interruption of or delay in transportation, a 
national health emergency or compliance with any order or regulation of any 
government entity acting with color of right.

      SECTION 17.4  NO INTERFERENCE WITH EXISTING BUSINESSES.  Each of Chiron 
and Cephalon acknowledges that the other party is engaged in the business of 
developing, manufacturing, marketing and selling products, including Products 
outside the Field and products other than Products within the Field. Nothing 
in this Agreement shall prevent either Collaborator from continuing to carry 
on its business or to enter into agreements with third parties except as 
expressly provided in Sections 4.6, 5.5 and 16.5(c) hereof.

      SECTION 17.5  COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.  Each Collaborator shall comply with 
all laws, rules and regulations which are material to the conduct of its 
activities under this Agreement.

      SECTION 17.6  WAIVER.  The failure of a party to enforce any breach or 
provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a continuing waiver of such 
breach or provision and such party may at any time thereafter act upon or 
enforce such breach or provision of this Agreement. Any waiver of breach 
executed by either party shall affect only the specific breach and shall not 
operate as a waiver of any subsequent or preceding breach.

      SECTION 17.7  NO ASSIGNMENT.  No Collaborator may sell, assign, pledge 
or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its interest in the 
Collaboration or right thereto without the prior written consent of the other 
Collaborator, except that no such consent is required for any transfer to an 
Affiliate or to a 

                                      -55-

<PAGE>

successor to substantially all of the Collaborator's business. Subject to the 
foregoing, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon 
the Collaborators and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

      SECTION 17.8  SEVERABILITY.  If any clause or provisions of this 
Agreement is declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent 
jurisdiction, such provision shall be severed and the remaining provisions of 
the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. The parties shall use 
their best efforts to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision as a 
substitute for the severed provision, taking into account the intent of this 
Agreement.

      SECTION 17.9  NOTICES.  Any notice, request or other communication 
required to be given pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall be in 
writing and shall be deemed to be given when delivered in person or five days

      Re:  COLLABORATION AGREEMENT

Gentlemen:

      This letter is intended to confirm certain mutual understandings in 
connection with the Agreement between Cephalon, Inc. and Chiron Corporation 
dated January 7, 1994 (the "Agreement") related to the joint development and 
commercialization of IGF-1 and other specified compounds. All capitalized 
terms not otherwise defined herein are used as defined in the Agreement.

1.    The 1994 budget of Allowable Expenses by Cephalon for the use of IGF-1 
      in the treatment of ALS has been approved by the Management Committee 
      in the form attached as EXHIBIT A to this letter.

2.    The 1994 budget of [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of Allowable 
      Expenses by Chiron for IGF-1 has been approved by the Management 
      Committee.

3.    Section 6.1 of the Agreement is amended to read in its entirety as 
      follows:

           "SECTION 6.1  SHARING OF OPERATING PROFITS AND LOSSES.  The 
           Operating Profits and Operating Losses from the Major Markets and 
           the Royalty Territory shall be shared equally by Cephalon and 
           Chiron, except (i) for the special allocation described in 
           Section 6.2(a) hereof, and (ii) Cephalon shall receive from the JV 
           a royalty of [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] in the Major Markets
           in Europe (i.e., the EC and EFTA countries) of a Product containing
           IGF-1 for use in treating ALS, before Operating Profits and 
           Operating Losses are calculated."

<PAGE>

Chiron Corporation
January 13, 1995
Page 2

4.    Cephalon will be responsible for the Costs related to the IGF-1 program 
      that were incurred by Cephalon in 1994, as specified on EXHIBIT B 
      hereto, and for any other Costs related to the European ALS study that 
      are designated as non-Allowable Expenses in the 1995 budget to be 
      approved by the Management Committee (all of such Costs being referred 
      to as the ""Reimbursable Costs"). However, Cephalon shall be entitled 
      to make draws under the Line of Credit Note to fund one-half of the 
      Reimbursable Costs, not to exceed $10 million. The Line of Credit Note 
      is hereby amended to the extent required to permit such draws and is 
      further amended to extend the Maturity Date of the Note by one year, to 
      January 6, 2000.

5.    Chiron shall have no right to receive any of the Operating Profits from 
      Net Sales in the Major Markets in Europe of a Product containing IGF-1 
      for use in treating ALS, unless it elects to repurchase its rights by 
      reimbursing Cephalon for the Reimbursable Costs, by written notice to 
      Cephalon delivered at any time before the earlier of (i) filing by 
      Cephalon of the first request for regulatory approval to market a 
      product containing IGF-1 in a Major Market, or (ii) the Maturity Date 
      of the Line of Credit Note. To repurchase such rights, Chiron shall 
      reimburse Cephalon for 50% of the Reimbursable Costs, plus interest 
      accrued at [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED], compounded annually from
      the date the Reimbursable Cost was incurred. The reimbursement shall 
      be paid out of Chiron's share of Operating Profits in the Territory from
      Net Sales of a Product containing IGF-1 for use in treating ALS. All of 
      Chiron's share of Operating Profits in the Territory will be subject to 
      the reimbursement, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, until the Reimbursable 
      Costs, plus accrued interest, have been paid in full. All such 
      reimbursements shall be applied first, to pay accrued interest and second,
      to pay the principal of the Reimbursed Costs. Chiron may at any time 
      prepay the Reimbursable Costs, plus interest accrued to the date of 
      prepayment.

      If Chiron elects to reimburse the Reimbursable Costs, Cephalon shall 
      repay the outstanding principal of the Line of Credit Note related to 
      the draws used to fund the Reimbursable Costs in an amount equal to, and 
      concurrently with, each payment by Chiron of Reimbursable Costs. If 
      Chiron gives written notice of its election to repurchase such rights, 
      the Maturity Date of the Line of Credit Note shall automatically be 
      extended to the extent required to permit the payment by Cephalon of 
      such principal of the Note concurrently with reimbursement by Chiron of 
      the Reimbursable Costs.

     Re:  AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT

Gentlemen:

     This letter is to confirm our understanding as to certain matters under 
the Agreement dated January 7, 1994 between Caphalon, Inc. and Chiron 
Corporation, as amended (the "Agreement"). All terms not otherwise defined 
herein are used as defined in the Agreement.

     1.   If Chiron is not for any reason manufacturing on behalf of the 
Collaboration commercial supplies of a Product containing IGF-1, and Cephalon 
is manufacturing the Product, Cephalon will receive [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] of the Operating Profits from the Major Markets and the Royalty 
Territory, and Section 6.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended to add a new 
clause (iii) after the word 'except', which states in its entirety as follows:

     "(iii) if Chiron is not for any reason manufacturing on behalf of the 
     Collaboration commercial supplies of a Product containing IGF-1, 
     Cephalon will receive an additional [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of 
     the Operating Profits from the Major Markets and the Royalty Territory 
     attributable to Net Sales of any such Product that was manufactured by 
     Cephalon (the 'Manufacturing Premium') (i.e., for a total share of 
     [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of such Operating Profits)."

     2.   The payment by the Collaboration of Manufacturing Premium does not 
operate as a waiver of any party's rights or obligations under the Agreement, 
including Chiron's obligations to manufacture Products in accordance with the 
terms of the Agreement.

     3.  Chiron has elected not to participate in Cephalon's option to 
buy-down the royalty rate and license fees payable under a License Agreement 
dated March 6, 1992, as amended, between Cephalon and The Salk Institute of 
Biotechnology/Industrial Associates, Inc. ("SIBIA"). Even if Cephalon 
exercises its option to buy-down the SIBIA compensation, the Collaboration 
will nevertheless continue to be responsible for the full amount of the 
compensation (royalties and license fees) owed to SIBIA under the SIBIA 
License as in effect before such buy-down, to the extent such compensation 
results from the activities of the Collaboration. The payment of SIBIA

compensation will be made to Cephalon, who will remit the appropriate amount 
to SIBIA. As an illustration, assuming that before the buy-down the royalty 
owed to SIBIA on sales of a Product in the Field is [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT
REQUESTED] and that Cephalon buys down [CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED] of 
the SIBIA royalty, the Collaboration will pay Cephalon the [CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] royalty and Cephalon will remit the [CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT REQUESTED] royalty to SIBIA.

     If the above accurately describes our understanding, please indicate your 
agreement in the space provided below.
