noted above The Parties agree to negotiate in good faith the other terms of such
development and commercialization agreement.

Third Parties involving 
(                                                                          )   *

                  2.6. Governmental Consents. Based in part on the
                       ---------------------
         representations made by Investor in Section 3 of this Agreement, no

         Agreement. The Company hereby agrees to make all such filings within
         the prescribed periods. Based in part on the representations of the

         qualification requirements of the California Securities Law.

                  2.7. Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
                       ----------
         investigation pending or currently threatened before any court,
         administrative agency or other governmental body against the Company
         that questions the validity of this Agreement or the Affiliated
         Agreements or the right of the Company to enter into any of them, or to
         consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or that
         would result, either individually or in the aggregate, in any material
         adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), business,
         property, assets or liabilities of the Company or any change in the
         current equity ownership of the Company. The foregoing includes,
         without limitation, actions, suits, proceedings or investigations
         pending or threatened (or any basis therefor known to the Company)
         involving the prior employment of any of the Company's employees, their
         use in connection with the Company's business of any intellectual
         property, information or techniques allegedly proprietary to any of
         their former employers, or their obligations under any agreements with
         their former employers. The Company is not a party or subject to, and
         none of its assets us bound by, the provisions of any order, writ,
         injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency or
         instrumentality.

                  2.8. Employees. The Company's relations with its employees are
                       ---------
         satisfactory. The Company has no collective bargaining agreements with
         any of its employees. There is no labor union organizing activity
         pending or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened with respect to the
         Company. To the Company's knowledge, no employee of the Company, nor
         any consultant with whom the Company has contracted, is in violation of
         any term of any employment contract, proprietary information agreement
         or any other agreement relating to the right of any such individual to
         be employed by, or to contract with, the Company because of the nature
         of the business to be conducted by the Company; and to the Company's
         knowledge the continued employment by the Company of its present
         employees, and the performance of the Company's contracts with its
         independent contractors, will not result in any such violation. The
         Company has not received any notice alleging that any such violation
         has occurred. No employee of the Company has been granted the right to
         continued employment by the Company or to any material compensation
         following termination of employment with the Company. The Company is
         not aware that any officer or key employee, or that any group of key
         employees, intends to terminate his, her or their employment with the
         Company, nor does the Company have a present intention to terminate the
         employment of any officer, key employee or group of key employees. The
         Company has complied in all material respects with the applicable
         state, federal and foreign equal employment opportunity laws and with
         other laws related to employment.

                  2.9. Patents and Trademarks. The Company has sufficient title
                       ----------------------
         and ownership of all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names,
         copyrights, trade secrets, information, proprietary


                                        4
<PAGE>
 
         rights and processes necessary for its business as presently conducted,
         without any known infringement of the rights of others. The Company has
         not received any communications alleging that the Company has violated
         any patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights or
         trade secrets or other proprietary rights of any other person or entity
         nor is the Company aware of any third party that us infringing or
         violating any such rights of the Company. To the best knowledge of the
         Company, none of the Company's employees is obligated under any
         contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature)
         or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any
         court or administrative agency, that would interfere with the use of
         his or her best efforts to promote the interests of the Company or that
         would conflict in any manner with the Company's business. Neither the
         execution nor delivery of this Agreement or any of the Affiliated
         Agreements, nor the carrying on of the Company's business by the
         employees of the Company, will conflict with or result in a breach of
         the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under,
         any contract, covenant or instrument under which any of such employees
         is now obligated. The Company does not and will not need to utilize any
         inventions of any of its employees (or people it currently intends to
         hire) made prior to their employment by the Company that have not
         previously been fully and exclusively assigned to the Company without
         restrictions, the presence of which would result in a material adverse
         effect on the ability of the Company to carry on its business as
         presently conducted or proposed to be conducted.

                  2.10. Confidential Information and Invention Assignment
                        -------------------------------------------------
         Agreements. Each former and current employee, officer and consultant of
         ----------
         the Company has executed an appropriate confidential information and
         invention assignment agreement. No current employee, officer or
         consultant of the Company has excluded works or inventions made prior
         to his or her employment with the Company from his or her assignment of
         inventions pursuant to such agreement.

                  2.11. Compliance with Other Instruments. The Company is not in
                        ---------------------------------
         violation or default of any provision of its Articles or Bylaws, each
         as in effect on and as of the Closing. The Company is not in violation
         or default of any material provision of any instrument, mortgage, deed
         of trust, loan, contract, commitment, judgment, decree, order or
         obligation to which it is a party or by which it or any of its
         properties or assets are bound, which violation or default would
         materially adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise),
         business, property, assets or liabilities of the Company or, to the
         best of the Company's knowledge, of any provision of any federal, state
         or local statute, rule or governmental regulation, which violation or
         default would materially adversely affect the condition (financial or
         otherwise), business, property, assets or liabilities of the Company.
         The execution, delivery and performance of and compliance with this
         Agreement and the Affiliated Agreements, and the issuance and sale of
         the Shares, will not result in any such violation, be in conflict with
         or constitute (with or without the passage of time or giving of notice)
         a default under any such provision, require any consent or waiver under
         any such provision (other than any consents or waivers that have been
         obtained), or result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien,
         encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or assets of the
         Company pursuant to any such provision.

                  2.12 Ludwig Agreement. The Company has provided the Investor
                       ----------------
         with a full and complete (except for certain financial terms, which

         20, 1996 (the "Ludwig Agreement"), by and between the Company and the
         Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, a Swiss not-for-profit
         corporation ("Ludwig") which agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit E.
                                                                      ---------
         The Ludwig Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding
         between the Company and Ludwig with respect to the subject matter of
         the Ludwig Agreement. The Company is not in violation or default of any
         provision of

                                        5
<PAGE>
 
         the Ludwig Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of and
         compliance with this Agreement and the Affiliated Agreements, and the
         issuance and sale of the Shares, will not result in any such
         violation, be in conflict with or constitute (with or without the
         passage of time or giving of notice) a default under any such
         provision, require any consent or waiver under any such provision or
         result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien encumbrance or
         charge upon any of the properties or assets of the Company pursuant to
         any such provision. The Company shall use its best efforts to maintain
         the Ludwig Agreement in full force and effect through one hundred
         twenty (120) days after the end of the Research Term (as defined in the
         Option Agreement).

                       -------
         permits, licenses and any similar authority necessary for the conduct
         of its business as now being conducted by it, the lack of which would
         materially and adversely affect the business, properties, prospects or
         financial condition of the Company, and the Company believes it can
         obtain, without undue burden or expense, any similar authority for the
         conduct of its business as planned to be conducted. The Company is not
         in default under any of such franchises, permits, licenses or other
         similar authority and neither the execution, delivery nor performance
         of this Agreement and each of the Affiliated Agreements and the
         consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will
         result in any suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or
         nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval applicable
         to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or
         properties.

                  2.14. Registration Rights.  Except as provided in the
                        -------------------

         grant any registration rights, including piggyback rights, to any

         all mortgages, liens and encumbrances, except liens for current taxes
         and assessments not yet due and possible minor liens and encumbrances
         that do not, in any case, in the aggregate, materially detract from the
         value of the property subject thereto or materially impair the
         operations of the Company. With respect to the properties and assets it
         leases, the Company is in compliance with such leases and holds a valid
         leasehold interest free of all liens, claims or encumbrances, and to
         the best knowledge of the Company, all other parties to the leases are
         in compliance with all material terms of such leases. The Company's
         properties and assets are in good condition and repair in all material
         respects.

                  2.16. Brokers or Finders. The Company has not agreed to incur,
                        ------------------
         directly or indirectly, any liability for brokerage or finders' fees,

         unaudited statement of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows
         for the calendar period from January 1, 1998 through such date (the

         present the Company's financial position as of those dates and the
         results of operations and changes in its financial position for such
         periods then ended, and have been prepared in accordance with generally

transactions contemplated hereby that:

                 3.1. Investment. The Investor has been provided with copies of
                      ----------
         the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
         31, 1997, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended
         March 31, 1998, June 30, 1998 and September 30, 1998 and as of the
         Initial Closing has been given the financial and other information
         requested by the Investor or deemed by the Investor to be material for
         it to make an analysis and decision concerning the investment in the
         Shares contemplated by this Agreement. The Investor has been provided
         with an opportunity for a reasonable period of time prior to the
         Initial Closing to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the
         Company and its representatives concerning the Company and the
         investment in the Shares. The Investor has not been furnished with any
         oral information in connection with the offering of the Shares. The
         Investor is acquiring the Shares for investment for its own account and
         not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any
         distribution thereof. The Investor understands that the Shares have not
         been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific
         exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act that
         depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the
         investment intent as expressed herein. The Investor further represents
         that it does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or



                                        8
<PAGE>
 
         arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participation to
         any third person with respect to any of the Shares. The Investor
         understands and acknowledges that the offering of the Shares pursuant
         to this Agreement will not be registered under the Securities Act

                 3.2 Rule 144. The Investor acknowledges than the Shares must be
                     --------
         held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities
         Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Investor
         is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities
         Act that permit limited resale of shares purchased in a private
         placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The
         Investor covenants that, in the absence of an effective registration
         statement covering the shock in question, it will sell, transfer or
         otherwise dispose of the Shares only in a manner consistent with its
         representations and covenants set forth in this Section 3. In
         connection therewith, the Investor acknowledges than the Company will
         make a notation on its stock books regarding the restrictions on
         transfers set forth in this Section 3 and will transfer securities on
         the books of the Company only to the extent not inconsistent therewith.

                 3.3. Authorization.  This Agreement, when executed and
                      -------------
         delivered by the Investor, will constitute a valid and legally binding
         obligation of the Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms
         subject to: (1) judicial principles respecting election of remedies or
         limiting the availability, of specific performance, injunctive relief,
         and other equitable remedies; (ii) bankruptcy, insolvency,
         reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in
         effect generally relating to or affecting creditors' rights; and (iii)
         limitations on the enforceability of the indemnification provisions of
         the Registration Rights Agreement.

         1.2      Restrictions on Transfer

                  (a) Each Holder agrees not to make any disposition of all or
any portion of the Registrable Securities unless and until the transferee has
agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by this Section
1.2, which is intended to ensure compliance with the provisions of the
Securities Act, provided and to the extent this Section 1.2 is then applicable
under the Securities Act to such disposition, and unless and until:

                           (i)   There is then in effect a registration
          statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition
          and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration
          statement; or

                           (ii)  (A) Such Holder shall have notified the Company
          of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with
          a statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition,
          and (B) if reasonably requested by the Company, such Holder shall have
          furnished the Company with (l) an opinion of counsel, reasonably
          satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require
          registration of such shares under the Securities Act, (2) a "no
          action" letter from the Commission to the effect that the transfer of
          such securities without registration will not result in a
          recommendation by the staff of the Commission that action be taken
          with respect thereto; or (3) any other evidence reasonably
          satisfactory to counsel to the Company. It is agreed that the Company
          will not require opinions of counsel, "no action" letters or any other
          such evidence; in any transaction in which a Holder that is a
          corporation distributes Restricted Securities after six months after
          the purchase thereof solely to its majority owned subsidiaries or
          affiliates for no consideration; or in any transaction in which a
          Holder that is a partnership distributes Restricted Securities after
          six months after the purchase thereof solely to partners thereof for
          no consideration; provided, however, that each transferee agrees in
          writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 1.2.

                           (iii) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs
          (i) and (ii) above, no such registration statement or opinion of
          counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by a Holder that is (A) a
          partnership to its partners or retired partners in accordance with
          partnership interests, (B) a corporation to its shareholders in
          accordance with their interest in the corporation, (C) a limited
          liability company to its members or former members in accordance with
          their interest in the limited liability company, or (D) to the
          Holder's family member or trust for the benefit of an individual
          Holder, provided the transferee will be subject to the terms of this
          Section 1.2 to the same extent as if such transferee were an original
          Holder hereunder.

                  (b) Each certificate representing Registrable Securities shall
(unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Agreement) be stamped or
otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially similar to the following (in
addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):

                  "THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED
                  FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
                  SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND
                  MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR
                  HYPOTHECATED

                                        3
<PAGE>
 
                  UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN
                  OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO
                  MAGAININ PHARMACEUTICALS INC. (THE "COMPANY") THAT SUCH
                  REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED."

                  "SUCH SHARES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON SALE, ASSIGNMENT
                  OR TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF A REGISTRATION RIGHTS
                  AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF
                  WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY, AND MAY
                  NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED
                  OTHER THAN IN COMPLIANCE WITH SUCH REGISTRATION RIGHTS
                  AGREEMENT."

                  (c) The Company shall promptly reissue unlegended certificates
at the request of any Holder thereof if the Holder shall have obtained an
opinion of counsel at such Holder's expense (which counsel may be counsel to the
Company) reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the securities
represented thereby may lawfully be disposed of without registration,
qualification or legend.

                  (d) Any legend endorsed on an instrument pursuant to
applicable federal or state securities laws, and the stop-transfer instructions
with respect to such securities, shall be removed promptly upon the request of
any Holder thereof if the Holder shall have obtained an opinion of counsel at
such Holder's expense (which counsel may be counsel to the Company) reasonably
acceptable to the Company to the effect that such legend is, or instructions
are, no longer required.

          1.3     Shelf Registration.

                  (a) Registration Statement. The Company shall, as soon as
                      ----------------------

Securities Act of the Shares sold pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement in
connection with the disposition of all of the Shares by the Holders, from time
to time in the open market, in one or more transactions (which may involve block
transactions), in negotiated, underwritten, or other transactions or through a
combination of such methods of sale, at market prices prevailing at the time of
such sale, at prices relating to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated
prices, and shall use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to
become effective as soon as practicable thereafter, provided, however, that in
no event shall the Company be required in connection with this covenant to file
its Annual Report on Form 10-K prior to March 1, 1999. If such disposition is
pursuant to an underwritten offering, Company shall enter into an underwriting
agreement in form reasonably necessary to effect the offer and sale of Common
Stock in connection with any underwritten offering pursuant to this Section 1.3,
provided such underwriting agreement contains customary underwriting provisions.

                  (b) Additional Shares. The Company shall promptly prepare and
                      -----------------
file with the Commission one or more amendments to the Registration Statement

the Registrable Securities.

                  (c) Amendments and Supplements. The Company shall promptly
                      --------------------------
prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to the
Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be
necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective until all of the
Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant thereto or until the earlier of

such Registration Statement, and (ii) such date on which each Holder may dispose

Holder with respect to the Registrable Securities registered under the

public sale or other disposition of all or any of the Registrable Securities by
the Holder.

                  (e) Blue Sky. The Company shall promptly file documents
                      --------

not so qualified or has not so consented.

                      -----------
when any stop order has been issued with respect to the Registration Statement
and use its best efforts to promptly cause such stop order to be withdrawn, and
in any event shall, within 45 days of the issuance of such stop order, amend the
Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected to obtain the withdrawal
of the stop order or file an additional Registration Statement covering all of
the Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such Registration
Statement to become effective as soon as practicable thereafter. In the event
that the Company files such subsequent Registration Statement pursuant hereto,
all of the provisions of this Section 1 shall apply with respect to such
Registration Statement.

                  (g) Expenses. The Company shall bear all Registration Expenses
                      --------
and the Holders shall bear all Selling Expenses.

                  (h) Notification. The Company shall notify each seller of
                      ------------
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a
prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act
of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in
such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of
a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the
circumstances then existing, and at the request of any such seller, prepare and
furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an
amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter
delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to
be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or
incomplete in the light of the circumstances then existing.

                  (i) Listing. The Company shall cause all such Registrable
                      -------

         1.4      Indemnification.

                  (a) The Company shall indemnity each Holder, each of its
directors, officers, partners, legal counsel and accountants, and each person
controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act,
with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been
effected pursuant to this Section 1, and each underwriter, if any, and each
person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities
(or actions, proceedings or settlements of litigation, commenced or threatened,
in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged
untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any prospectus, offering
circular or other document (including any related registration statement,
notification or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification or
compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading,
or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation
thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required
of the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or
compliance, and will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers,
directors, partners, legal counsel and accountants, and each person controlling
such Holder, each such underwriter, and each person who controls any such
underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with investigating, preparing and defending or settling any such
claim, loss, damage or liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof),
provided that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that
any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on
any untrue statement or omission based upon written information furnished to the
Company by such Holder or underwriter and stated to be specifically for use
therein. It is agreed that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section
1.4(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss,
damage or liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent has not
been unreasonably withheld).

                  (b) Each Holder shall, if Registrable Securities held by such
Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration,
qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of
its directors, officers, partners, legal counsel and accountants, and each
underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities covered by such a registration
statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each other such Holder, and each
such Holder's directors, officers and partners, and each person controlling such
Holder, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or
actions, proceedings or settlements of litigation, commenced or threatened, in
respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged
untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration
statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or
alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in
which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and such
Holders, directors, officers, partners, legal counsel and accountants,
underwriters or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably
incurred in connection with investigating, preparing and defending or settling
any such claim, loss, damage or liability (or action or proceeding in respect
thereof), in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is
made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other
document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein;
provided, however, that the obligations of such Holder hereunder shall not apply
to amounts paid in settlement of any such expenses, claims, losses, damages or
liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) if such settlement is
effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld); and provided further that in no event

                                        6
<PAGE>
 
shall any indemnity under this Section 1.4(b) exceed the gross proceeds from the
offering received by such Holder.

                  (c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section
1.4 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide
indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party
has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall
permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim or any
litigation resulting therefrom, provided, however, that counsel for the
Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any
litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party
(whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Party
may participate in such defense at such party's expense, and provided further
that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties that may
be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain
one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying
Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by
the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between such Indemnified Party and any other party
represented by such counsel in such proceeding, and provided further that the
failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not
relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 1.4, to the
extent such failure is not materially prejudicial to an Indemnifying Party's
ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such
claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party,
consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff
to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such
claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information
regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may
reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection
with defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.

                  (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.4 is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified
Party with respect to any expense, claim, loss, damage or liability referred to
herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified
Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party as a result of such expense, claim, loss, damage or liability
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such expense,
claim, loss, damage or liability as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the
Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact that resulted in such
expense, claim, loss, damage or liability relates to information supplied by the
Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission; provided that in no event shall any indemnity
contribution by a Holder under this Section 1.4(d) exceed the gross proceeds
from the offering received by such Holder.

                  (e) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this
Section 1.4 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities
in a registration statement and the termination of this Agreement. No
Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any action or proceeding with respect to
any such claim, loss, damage or liability, shall, except with the consent of
each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by
the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all
liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

                  (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the
provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting
agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are
in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting
agreement shall control; provided, however, that such provisions shall not
materially limit the Company's indemnification obligations provided hereby.

         1.5      Information by Holder. Each Holder of Registrable Securities
shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the
distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in
writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration,
qualification or compliance referred to in this Section 1.

         1.6      Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the
benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the
sale of the Restricted Securities to the public without registration, the
Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

                  (a) Make and keep public information regarding the Company
available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, at all times (the Company being currently subject to the
reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the exchange Act);

                  (b) File with the Commission in a timely manner all reports
and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act.

                  (c) So long as a Holder owns any Restricted Securities,
furnish to the Holder forthwith upon its request, (i) a written certification by
the Company, signed by its Chief Executive Officer, that the Company is in
compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, and of the Securities
Act and the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly
report of the Company, and (iii) such other reports and documents so filed as a
Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of
the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without
registration.

          1.7     Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to
cause the Company to register securities granted to a Holder by the Company
under this Section 1 may be transferred or assigned by a Holder only to a
transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities, provided that the Company is
given written notice at the time of or within a reasonable time after said
transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of the transferee or
assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration
rights are being transferred or assigned, and, provided further, that the
transferee or assignee of such rights assumes in writing the obligations of such
Holder under this Section I.

         1.8      Market Stand-Off Agreement. If requested by the Company and an
underwriter of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, a Holder shall
not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Common Stock (or other
securities) of the Company held by the Holder (other than those included in the
registration) during such period of time not to exceed ninety (90) days
following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed
under the Securities Act, provided that.

                           (i) such agreement shall only apply to the first such
          registration statement of the Company hereafter, including securities
          to be sold on its behalf to the public in an underwritten offering;

                                        8
<PAGE>
 
                  (ii)  all officers and directors of the Company, and holders
         of Common Stock issued by the Company directly to such holders in an
         exempt private transaction, are bound by and have entered into similar
         agreements; and

                  (iii) such agreement shall apply only once in any calendar
         year.

The obligations described in this Section 18 shall not apply to a registration
relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-8 or any similar form that
may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a
Commission Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or any similar form that may be
promulgated in the future. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions
with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the
foregoing restriction until the end of said ninety (90) day period.

         1.9  Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to take any
action to restrain, enjoin or otherwise delay any registration as the result of
any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or
implementation of this Section 1.

         1.10 Termination of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to
inclusion in any registration pursuant to Section 1.3 shall terminate on such
date as all shares of Registrable Securities held by such Holder may immediately
be sold under Rule 144 during any 90-day period.

 2.      COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

         The Company hereby covenants and agrees, so long as any Holder owns any
Registrable Security, as follows:

         2.1  Basic Financial Information. If the Company should no longer be
subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Company shall
furnish the following reports to each Holder:

subsidiaries, if any, as at the end of such fiscal year, and consolidated

for such year, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles consistently applied and setting forth in each case in comparative
form the figures for the previous fiscal year, all in reasonable detail and
certified by independent public accountants of recognized national standing
selected by the Company.

              (b) As soon as practicable after the end of each of the first,
second and third quarterly accounting periods in each fiscal year of the
Company, and in any event within the period thereafter when a filing on Form
10-Q would be required, a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its
subsidiaries, if any, as of the end of each such quarterly period, and
consolidated statements of income and cash flows of the Company and its
subsidiaries, if any, for such period and for the current fiscal year to date,
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
consistently applied and setting forth in comparative form the figures for the
corresponding periods of the previous fiscal year, subject to changes resulting
from normal year-end audit adjustments, all in reasonable detail and certified
as to the foregoing by the principal financial or accounting officer of the
Company, except that such financial statements need not contain the notes

Re:  Magainin Pharmaceuticals Inc. 
     ----------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Magainin Pharmaceuticals Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the issuance by the Company of
an aggregate of 620,540 shares (the "Shares") of the Company's common stock,
$.002 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), pursuant to a Stock Purchase
Agreement (the "Agreement"), dated as of December 30, 1998, between the Company
and Genentech, Inc. (the "Investor"). All capitalized terms used herein without
definition are used herein with the respective meanings ascribed to them in the
Agreement. This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 4.8 of the
Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, we have participated in the preparation of the
documents contemplated by the offering. We have examined executed counterparts
or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of the Agreement
and the Affiliated Agreements. As to various questions of fact material to our
opinion, we have relied, without independent investigation, upon the
representations of the parties thereto set forth in the Agreement and the
Affiliated Agreements, and upon such certificates of officers and
representatives of such parties as we have deemed relevant, as well as
certificates of public officials.

We have also assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all
documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with originals of all
documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed with respect to each
party other than the Company that the Agreement and the Affiliated Agreements
have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such party and that each
party has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Agreement
and the Affiliated Agreements to which it is a party.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and limitations set
forth below, we are of the opinion that:


                  1. The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly
         existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware,
         with all necessary corporate power and authority to enter into the
         Agreement and the Affiliated Agreements, and to perform its obligations
         thereunder.

                  2. The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreement
         and the Affiliated Agreements have been duly authorized by all
         necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Agreement and the
         Affiliated Agreements have been duly executed and delivered by the
         Company. Each of the Agreement and the Affiliated Agreements
         constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable
         against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable
         bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and similar laws affecting the
         enforcement of creditors' rights generally, to the effect of rules of
         law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other
         equitable remedies and to general principles of equity (regardless of
         whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or
         an action at law).

                  3. The Shares to be issued and sold on the date hereof by the
         Company pursuant to the Agreement have been duly authorized and, when
         issued to and paid for by you in accordance with the terms of the
         Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free
         of any liens or encumbrances and not subject to preemptive rights
         pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation or, to our knowledge,
         other similar rights of the stockholders of the Company.

                   4. Assuming the accuracy of the representations of the
         Investor contained in the Agreement and the Affiliated Agreements, and
         assuming that offers and sales of the Shares have been made only in the
         State of California, the offer and sale of the Shares and the delivery
         of the Shares to you pursuant to the terms of the Agreement is exempt
         from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
         amended, and are exempt from the applicable requirements of the
         securities laws of the State of California. We express no opinion as to
         compliance with applicable anti-fraud statutes, rules or regulations of
         any applicable law governing the issuance of securities.

                   5. The execution and delivery of each of the Agreement and
          the Affiliated Agreements and the issuance and sale of the Shares on
          the date hereof by the Company

         pursuant to the Agreement will not result in the violation by the
         Company of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or, to our
         knowledge, any federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable
         to the Company (other than federal or state securities laws, which are
         specifically addressed elsewhere herein), and, to our knowledge, do not
         contravene any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination
         or award that has been entered against the Company, the violation of
         which would materially and adversely affect the Company, its assets,
         financial condition or operations, and no consent, approval,
         authorization or order of, or filing with, any federal or California
         court or governmental agency or body is required for the consummation
         of the issuance and sale of the Shares on the date hereof by the
         Company pursuant to the Agreement.

                  6. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of
         45,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.002 per share, and
         9,211,031 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share.

                  7. Except as disclosed in the Agreement and any documents
         referred to therein and relying as to judgments in respect of
         materiality on the advice of the executive officers of the Company, to
         our knowledge, there is no action, proceeding or investigation pending
         or threatened against the Company in any court or before any
         governmental authority or arbitration board or tribunal that, if
         adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on the
         Company taken as a whole or would question the validity of the
         Agreement or the Affiliated Agreements, the Shares or any action taken
         or to be taken pursuant to the Agreement or the Affiliated Agreements
         or contemplated thereby.

                  The opinions set forth above are subject to the following
         qualifications:

                  (A) Wherever we have stated we have assumed any matter, it is
         intended to indicate that we have assumed such matter without making
         any factual, legal or other inquiry or investigation, and without
         expressing any opinion or conclusion of any kind concerning such
         matter.

                  (B) Whenever a statement or opinion set forth herein is
         qualified by "to our knowledge", or any similar phrase, it is intended
         to indicate that, during the course of our representation of the
         Company in the subject transaction and in prior transactions no
         information that would give us current actual knowledge of the
         inaccuracy of such statement has come to the attention of those
         attorneys in this Firm who have rendered legal services in connection
         with the representation described in the introductory

         paragraph of this opinion letter. However, we have not undertaken any
         independent investigation to determine the accuracy of such statement
         or opinion; no inference as to our knowledge of any matters bearing on
         the accuracy of any such statement or opinion should be drawn from the
         fact of our representation of the Company.

                   (C) We express no opinion with respect to the laws of any
         jurisdiction other than the federal laws of the United States of
         America, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the Delaware
         General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") and, with respect to our opinion
         in paragraph 5, the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as
         amended. Further, we express no opinion with respect to any federal or
         state laws relating to tax and antitrust matters. With respect to
         paragraph 5, our opinion regarding state securities laws is based
         solely upon our examination of the latest unofficial compilations
         available to us of the applicable statutes, if any, of the State of
         California, and, in certain instances, the published rules and
         regulations issued thereunder. Our opinion in paragraph 5 with respect
         to state securities laws is further subject to broad discretionary
         powers of the authorities administering the state securities laws to,
         among other things, withdraw exemptions accorded by statute, to impose
         additional requirements or to revoke or suspend at any time the
         registration or qualification of securities for offering in their
         respective jurisdictions. With respect to the State of California, we
         have relied exclusively on information provided in the Agreement by the
         Investor concerning the residency or principal place of business of the
         Investor. Moreover, we have assumed that no form of general
         solicitation or general advertising has been utilized in connection
         with the sale of the Shares. We note that the Agreement and the
         Ancillary Agreements recite that they are governed by the laws of the
         State of New York. We have made no investigation of New York law nor
         consulted with counsel admitted to practice law in the State of New
         York. Instead, with your consent, we have assumed that the laws of the
         State of New York are in all respects identical to the laws of the
         Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

                   (D) We express no opinion in Paragraph 2 as to the
         enforceability of (i) the Option Agreement or Section 1.3 of the
         Agreement or (ii) any provisions in the Agreement or any Affiliate
         Agreement relating to indemnification, contribution or choice of
         governing law.

                   (E) This opinion speaks only as of the date hereof and we do
         not have, nor do we assume, any obligation to advise you of any changes
         in facts or in the applicable laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
         or the United States of America or the DGCL which may affect our
         opinion.

13.  Confidential Information
     ------------------------

     Neither party shall use or disclose any Confidential Information received
by it pursuant to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other
party. Except as provided in the following sentence, nothing contained in this
Paragraph shall be construed to restrict the parties from disclosing
Confidential Information as is reasonably necessary to perform acts permitted by
this Agreement. However, if either party is required or feels it necessary to
disclose any Confidential Information received by it pursuant to this Agreement
(whether by audit or otherwise) to any third party or governmental agency in
compliance with any federal, state and/or local laws and/or regulations, or
pursuant to an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, the disclosing party
shall notify the party owning such Confidential Information immediately, prior
to any such disclosure, in order to enable the owning party to protect its
Confidential Information. In any event, the disclosing party shall make any
disclosures of Confidential Information received by it pursuant to this
Agreement only to the extent required, and only to such persons who have a need
to know. The obligations of the


                                       21
<PAGE>
 
parties relating to Confidential Information shall expire five (5) years after
termination of this Agreement.

14.      Force Majeure
         -------------

         Any delay in the performance of any of the duties or obligations of any
party (except the payment of money due hereunder) caused by an event outside the
affected party's reasonable control shall not be considered a breach of this
Agreement, and unless provided to the contrary herein, the time required for
performance shall be extended for a period equal to the period of such delay.
Such events shall include without limitation, acts of God; acts of the public
enemy; insurrections; riots; injunctions; embargoes; labor disputes, including
strikes, lockouts, job actions, or boycotts; fires; explosions; floods;
earthquakes; shortages of material or energy; delays in the delivery of raw
materials; or other unforeseeable causes beyond the reasonable control and
without the fault or negligence of the party so affected. The party so affected
shall give prompt notice to the other party of such cause, and shall take
whatever reasonable steps are necessary to relieve the effect of such cause as
rapidly as reasonably possible.

15.      Recalls
         -------

         In the event (i) any government authority issues a request, directive
or order that the Bulk Drug Substance or Product be recalled, or (ii) a court of
competent jurisdiction orders such a recall, or (iii) Magainin reasonably
determines after consultation with Abbott that the Bulk Drug Substance or
Product should be recalled, the parties shall take all appropriate corrective
actions. In the event that such recall results from the

                                       22
<PAGE>
 
failure of the Bulk Drug Substance to meet the Bulk Drug Specifications, and
such failure could not reasonably be detected by Magainin within the forty-five
(45) day acceptance period set forth in Paragraph 7, Abbott shall be responsible
for all expenses of the recall. In all other cases, Magainin shall be
responsible for the expense of recall, including the expense or service fee
associated with the representatives' time. For the purposes of this Agreement,
the expenses of recall shall include, without limitation, the expense of
notification and destruction or return of the recalled Bulk Drug Substance or
Product, but not the expense or service fee associated with the representatives'
time which shall in all cases be borne by Magainin. The remedy set forth above
shall constitute the sole remedy under this Paragraph 15.

the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that this
Agreement may be assigned by either party to a third party purchaser in the
event of an acquisition of at least fifty (50%) percent of Magainin. Any
permitted assignee shall assume all obligations of its assignor under this
Agreement. No assignment shall relieve any party of responsibility for the
performance of any accrued obligation that such party then has hereunder.

20.      Entire Agreement
         ----------------

         20.1    Except as provided in Subparagraph 20.2 below this Supply
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties concerning the

                         Alternative Dispute Resolution

The parties recognize that a bona fide dispute as to certain matters may arise
from time to time during the term of this Agreement that relates to either
party's rights and/or obligations. To have such a dispute resolved by this
Alternative Dispute Resolution ("ADR") provision, a party first must send
written notice of the dispute to the other party for attempted resolution by
good faith negotiations between their respective presidents (or their
equivalents) of the affected subsidiaries, divisions, or business units within
twenty-eight (28) days after such notice is received (all references to "days"
in this ADR provision are to calendar days).

If the matter has not been resolved within twenty-eight (28) days of the notice
of dispute, or if the parties fail to meet within such twenty-eight (28) days,
either party may initiate an ADR proceeding as provided herein. The parties
shall have the right to be represented by counsel in such a proceeding.


1.   To begin an ADR proceeding, a party shall provide written notice to the
     other party of the issues to be resolved by ADR. Within fourteen (14) days
     after its receipt of such notice, the other party may, by written notice to
     the party initiating the ADR, add additional issues to be resolved within
     the same ADR.

2.   Within twenty-one (21) days following receipt of the original ADR notice,
     the parties shall select a mutually acceptable neutral to preside in the
     resolution of any disputes in this ADR proceeding. If the parties are
     unable to agree on a mutually acceptable neutral within such period, either
     party may request the President of the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution
     ("CPR") 366 Madison Avenue, 14th Floor, New York, New York 10017, to select
     a neutral pursuant to the following procedures:

     (a)  The CPR shall submit to the parties a list of not less than five (5)
          candidates within fourteen (14) days after receipt of the request,
          along with a Curriculum Vitae for each candidate. No candidate shall
          be an employee, director, or shareholder of either party or any of
          their subsidiaries or affiliates.

     (b)  Such list shall include a statement of disclosure by each candidate of
          any circumstances likely to affect his or her impartiality.
<PAGE>
 
     (c)  Each party shall number the candidates in order of preference (with
          the number one (1) signifying the greatest preference) and shall
          deliver the list to the CPR within seven (7) days following receipt of
          the list of candidates. If a party believes a conflict of interest
          exists regarding any of the candidates, that party shall provide a
          written explanation of the conflict to the CPR along with its list
          showing its order of preference for the candidates. Any party failing
          to return a list of preferences on time shall be deemed to have no
          order of preference.

     (d)  If the parties collectively have identified fewer than three (3)
          candidates deemed to have conflicts, the CPR immediately shall
          designate as the neutral the candidate for whom the parties
          collectively have indicated the greatest preference. If a tie should
          result between two candidates, the CPR may designate either candidate.
          If the parties collectively have identified three (3) or more
          candidates deemed to have conflicts, the CPR shall review the
          explanations regarding conflicts and, in its sole discretion, may
          either (i) immediately designate as the neutral the candidate for whom
          the parties collectively have indicated the greatest preference, or
          (ii) issue a new list of not less than five (5) candidates, in which
          case the procedures set forth in Sections 2(a) - 2(d) shall be
          repeated.

3.   No earlier than twenty-eight (28) days or later than fifty-six (56) days
     after selection, the neutral shall hold a hearing to resolve each of the
     issues identified by the parties. The ADR proceeding shall take place at a
     location agreed upon by the parties. If the parties cannot agree, the
     neutral shall designate a location other than the principal place of
     business of either party or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates.

4.   At least seven (7) days prior to the hearing, each party shall submit the
     following to the other party and the neutral:

     (a)  a copy of all exhibits on which such party intends to rely in any oral
          or written presentation to the neutral;

     (b)  a list of any witnesses such party intends to call at the hearing, and
          a short summary of the anticipated testimony of each witness;

     (c)  a proposed ruling on each issue to be resolved, together with a
          request for a specific damage award or other remedy for each issue.
          The proposed rulings and remedies shall not contain any recitation of
          the facts or any legal arguments and shall not exceed one (1) page per
          issue.
<PAGE>
 
     (d)  a brief in support of such party's proposed rulings and remedies,
          provided that the brief shall not exceed twenty (20) pages. This page
          limitation shall apply regardless of the number of issues raised in
          the ADR proceeding. Except as expressly set forth in Sections 4(a) -
          4(d), no discovery shall be required or permitted by any means,
          including depositions, interrogatories, requests for admissions, or
          production of documents.

5.   The hearing shall be conducted on two (2) consecutive days and shall be
     governed by the following rules:

     (a)  Each party shall be entitled to five (5) hours of hearing time to
          present its case. The neutral shall determine whether each party has
          had the five (5) hours to which it is entitled.

     (b)  Each party shall be entitled, but not required, to make an opening
          statement, to present regular and rebuttal testimony, documents or
          other evidence, to cross-examine witnesses, and to make a closing
          argument. Cross-examination of witnesses shall occur immediately after
          their direct testimony, and cross-examination time shall be charged
          against the party conducting the cross-examination.

     (c)  The party initiating the ADR shall begin the hearing and, if it
          chooses to make an opening statement, shall address not only issues it
          raised but also any issues raised by the responding party. The
          responding party, if it chooses to make an opening statement, also
          shall address all issues raised in the ADR. Thereafter, the
          presentation of regular and rebuttal testimony and documents, other
          evidence, and closing arguments shall proceed in the same sequence.

     (d)  Except when testifying, witnesses shall be excluded from the hearing
          until closing arguments.

     (e)  Settlement negotiations, including any statements made therein, shall
          not be admissible under any circumstances. Affidavits prepared for
          purposes of the ADR hearing also shall not be admissible. As to all
          other matters, the neutral shall have sole discretion regarding the
          admissibility of any evidence.

6.   Within seven (7) days following completion of the hearing, each party may
     submit to the other party and the neutral a post-hearing brief in support
     of its proposed rulings and remedies, provided that such brief shall not
     contain or discuss any new evidence and shall not exceed ten (10) pages.
     This page limitation shall apply regardless of the number of issues raised
     in the ADR proceeding.
<PAGE>
 
7.   The neutral shall rule on each disputed issue within fourteen (14) days
     following completion of the hearing. Such ruling shall adopt in its
     entirety the proposed ruling and remedy of one of the parties on each
     disputed issue but may adopt one party's proposed rulings and remedies on
     some issues and the other party's proposed rulings and remedies on other
     issues. The neutral shall not issue any written opinion or otherwise
     explain the basis of the ruling.

8.   The neutral shall be paid a reasonable fee plus expenses. These fees and
     expenses, along with the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the
     prevailing party (including all expert witness fees and expenses), the fees
     and expenses of a court reporter, and any expenses for a hearing room,
     shall be paid as follows:

     (a)  If the neutral rules in favor of one party on all disputed issues in
          the ADR, the losing party shall pay 100% of such fees and expenses.

     (b)  If the neutral rules in favor of one party on some issues and the
          other party on other issues, the neutral shall issue with the rulings
          a written determination as to how such fees and expenses shall be
          allocated between the parties. The neutral shall allocate fees and
          expenses in a way that bears a reasonable relationship to the outcome
          of the ADR, with the party prevailing on more issues, or on issues of
          greater value or gravity, recovering a relatively larger share of its
          legal fees and expenses.

9.   The rulings of the neutral and the allocation of fees and expenses shall be
     binding, non-reviewable, and non-appealable, and may be entered as a final
     judgment in any court having jurisdiction.

10.  Except as provided in Section 9 or as required by law, the existence of the
     dispute, any settlement negotiations, the ADR hearing, any submissions
     (including exhibits, testimony, proposed rulings, and briefs), and the
     rulings shall be deemed Confidential Information. The neutral shall have
     the authority to impose sanctions for unauthorized disclosure of
     Confidential Information.
