additional one-quarter of the options becoming exercisable on the second, third
and fourth anniversary dates of the option grant, respectively.  Options granted
in 1997 for Dr. Duncan become exercisable starting 12 months after the grant
date, with 5,000 options becoming exercisable at that time with an additional
5,000 options becoming exercisable on the second anniversary date of the option
grant, 12,500 options becoming exercisable on the third anniversary of the
option grant with the successful filing of an IND and 12,500 options becoming
exercisable on the fourth anniversary of the option grant with the successful
filing of an IND.  All remaining options granted in 1997 become exercisable
immediately on the grant date.

(2)    The amounts shown are hypothetical gains based on the indicated assumed
rates of appreciation of the Common Stock compounded annually for a ten-year
period.  Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises are dependent on the
future performance of the Common Stock and overall stock market conditions.
There can be no assurance that the Common Stock will appreciate at any
particular rate or at all in future years.

(1)    The value realized is based on the difference between the market price
at the time of exercise of the options and the applicable exercise price.

(2)    Represents the total gain which would be realized if all in-the-money
options held at December 31, 1997, were exercised, determined by multiplying the
number of shares underlying the options by the difference between the per share
option exercise price and the fair market value of $6.8125 per share at
December 31, 1997.  An option is in-the-money if the fair market value of the
underlying shares exceeds the exercise price of the option.


       SECTION 16 REPORTS

       Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires ANTIVIRALS' directors and
officers, and persons who own more than ten percent (10%) of a registered class
of ANTIVIRALS' equity securities, to file initial reports of ownership and
reports of changes in ownership with the Commission.  Such persons also are
required to furnish ANTIVIRALS with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they
file.

       Based solely on its review of the copies of such reports received by it
with respect to fiscal 1997, or written representations from certain reporting
persons, ANTIVIRALS believes that all filing requirements applicable to its
directors, officers and persons who own more than ten percent (10%) of a
registered class of ANTIVIRALS' equity securities have been complied with for
fiscal 1997, except for the late filing of Forms 3, upon the Company's becoming
a registrant under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, by John A. Beaulieu,

ITEM 12.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     James E. Summerton, Ph.D., the former President, former Chief Scientific
Officer, and a former director of the Company, is the general partner of
Anti-Gene Development Group ("AGDG"), and was the general partner of NEU-GENE
Development Group ("NGDG").  AGDG was founded in 1981 and NGDG was founded in
1984 to own and fund the Company's development of gene-targeted therapeutics and
NEU-GENE technology.  NGDG and AGDG were combined in 1989, with AGDG as the
surviving entity.  The Company entered into numerous research and development
contracts with AGDG and NGDG, all of which were completed or were superseded by
the Technology Transfer Agreement described below.

     On February 9, 1993, the Company and AGDG entered into a Technology
Transfer Agreement wherein effective May 19, 1993, AGDG conveyed all
intellectual property in its control related to antisense technology (the
"Intellectual Property") to the Company.  As part of the conveyance, the Company
tendered to AGDG for liquidation all partnership units received pursuant to an
exchange offer and received a 49.37 percent undivided interest in the
intellectual property.  The Company then purchased the remaining undivided
interest in the Intellectual Property in consideration of payments of 4.05% of
gross revenues in excess of $200 million, if any, sales of products by the
Company which would, in the absence of the Technology Transfer Agreement,
infringe a valid claim under any patent transferred to the Company (the
"Technology Fees").  The Company's obligation to make payments of the Technology
Fees with respect to a particular product terminates upon the expiration of all
patents transferred to the Company pursuant to the Technology Transfer Agreement
related to that product.


                                         -10-
<PAGE>

     Pursuant to a License and Option Agreement by and between AGDG and the
Company dated February 9, 1993 (the "License Agreement"), the Company granted to
AGDG a royalty-free nonexclusive license to use the Intellectual Property for
internal research and development and to sell small quantities of products
incorporating the Intellectual Property.  In addition, if AGDG develops any
specific prototype products which incorporate any of the Intellectual Property,
the Company has the right to commercialize and market such products in
consideration of payments of 4.05% of gross revenues, in excess of the
$200 million exemption for all products utilizing the Intellectual Property, to
AGDG.  If the Company elects not to commercialize the proposed AGDG product or
fails to meet certain product development milestones, the Company is required to
grant AGDG a license to develop and market the proposed product (an "AGDG
License").  The Company is entitled to payments for the AGDG license but only if
the proposed product incorporates patented improvements developed by the Company
to the Intellectual Property.  The amount of the license fee payable to the
Company by AGDG pursuant to an AGDG License, if any, is equal to the percentage
payable to AGDG for products sold by the Company and covered by the Technology
Transfer Agreement.  AGDG also has the right to obtain an exclusive royalty-free
license to use, develop, make, sell, distribute and sublicense products
utilizing the Intellectual Property at such time as the Company has less than 10
full-time employees engaged in developing, testing or marketing products based
upon the Intellectual Property for a period of at least 180 consecutive days.

     On January 20, 1997, AGDG and the Company amended the Technology Transfer
Agreement to reduce the Technology Fees arising from the sale of diagnostic
products from 4.05% to 2% and to remove the $200 million exemption with respect
to sales of such diagnostic products.  The Company also granted to AGDG
royalty-bearing licenses to make, use and sell certain quantities of product
derived from the Intellectual Property.

     Pursuant to an August 4, 1992, restatement of earlier agreements between
Oregon Resource and Technology Development Fund ("ORTDF"), the Company, AGDG and
Dr. Summerton, warrants to purchase 600,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock
have been issued to ORTDF.  John A. Beaulieu was president of ORTDF and a
director of the Company at that time.  The warrants held by ORTDF are currently
exercisable at a purchase price of $.0003 per share.  In connection with this
issuance to ORTDF, they acquired certain rights to register such shares under
the Securities Act.  See "Description of Securities -- Registration Rights."  In
May 1993, ORTDF acquired warrants to purchase an additional 357,500 shares in
exchange for 325 partnership units in AGDG conveyed to the Company.  Such
warrants carry no registration rights.  In March 1996, ORTDF exercised its
warrants in a cashless exercise for which ORTDF acquired 957,452 shares of the
Company's Common Stock.

     Effective July 1, 1992, the Company entered into a consulting arrangement
with a former director of the Company, pursuant to which the Company agreed to
pay $3,500 per month for 24 months, and agreed to issue 11,000 shares of Common
Stock of the Company for no additional consideration.  Under this arrangement,
and for services rendered prior to such date, the former director received
$10,500 in 1994, $52,500 in 1993 (including a $10,500 advance on 1994 payments),
