                    MYRIAD GENETICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
        NOTES TO CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)       Basis of Presentation
          ---------------------

          The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements
          have been prepared by Myriad Genetics, Inc. (the "Company") in
          accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
          financial information and pursuant to the applicable rules and
          regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The condensed
          unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
          the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All material
          intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
          consolidation.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying
          financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal and
          recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly all financial
          statements.  The financial statements herein should be read in
          conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial
          statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997,
          included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
          ended June 30, 1997.  Operating results for the three and six month
          periods ended December 31, 1997 may not necessarily be indicative of
          the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the
          full year.

(2)       Common Stock
          ------------

          In October 1997, the Company entered into an arrangement with Swiss
          Bank Corporation, London Branch ("SBC") under which the Company
          simultaneously purchased and sold call options on its own Common Stock
          resulting in a payment of $100,000 to the Company.  The capped call
          option purchased by the Company ("Contract A") gives the Company the
          right, at option expiration, to (i) purchase 400,000 shares of its own
          stock at a strike price of $32.25 or (ii) receive a cash settlement in
          an amount equal to the difference between the strike price and the
          lesser of the market price at the exercise date or the cap price of
          $40.50.

          The call option sold by the Company ("Contract B") gives SBC the
          right, at option expiration, to purchase 400,000 shares of newly
          issued Myriad Common Stock, subject to the effectiveness of a
          registration statement, at a strike price of $40.50.  Alternatively,
          the Company may elect to cash settle, or net share settle the option.
          It is management's intent to cash settle contract A, and if the market
          price exceeds $40.50 at the option expiration date, to settle Contract
          B through the issuance of Myriad stock.  If both contracts are
          exercised, the Company may receive up to $19,500,000, or $48.75 per
          share.  Both call options will expire in December 1998.

          SBC has advised that it has engaged, and may engage, in transactions,
          including buying and selling shares of the Company's Common Stock, to
          offset its risk relating to the options.  Purchases and sales could
          affect the market price of the Company's Common Stock.

(3)       Earnings per Share
          ------------------

          In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
          Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per
          Share ("SFAS 128").  SFAS 128 became effective for the consolidated
          financial statements for interim and annual periods ending after
          December 15, 1997.  Accordingly, the Company has adopted SFAS 128 for
          the quarter ended December 31, 1997.

          SFAS 128 establishes a different method of computing earnings (loss)
          per share than was required under the provisions of Accounting
          Principles Board Opinion No. 15.  Under SFAS 128, entities with
          publicly held common stock are required to present both basic earnings
          (loss) per share and diluted earnings (loss) per share.  Given the
          Company's current loss position, basic and diluted loss per share are
          equal and consistent with net loss per share presented in prior
          quarters.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Since inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its resources to
maintaining its research and development programs, establishing and operating a
genetic testing laboratory, and supporting collaborative research agreements.
Revenues received by the Company primarily have been payments pursuant to
collaborative research agreements and sales of genetic tests.  The Company has
been unprofitable since its inception and, for the quarter ended December 31,
1997, the Company had a net loss of $2,264,621 and as of December 31, 1997 had
an accumulated deficit of $28,207,813.

In April 1995, the Company commenced a five-year collaborative research and
development arrangement with Novartis Corporation ("Novartis").  This
collaboration provides the Company with an equity investment, research funding
and potential milestone payments of up to $60,000,000.  The Company is entitled
to receive royalties from sales of therapeutic products sold by Novartis.  The
Company recognized $1,370,967 in revenue under this agreement for the quarter
ended December 31, 1997.

In September 1995, the Company commenced a five-year collaborative research and
development arrangement with Bayer Corporation ("Bayer").  This collaboration
provides the Company with an equity investment, research funding and potential
milestone payments of up to $71,000,000.  In November 1997, the Company
announced an expansion of its collaborative research and development arrangement
with Bayer.  The expanded collaboration provides the Company with additional
research funding and potential milestone payments of up to $54,000,000 or a
total potential of up to $125,000,000.  The Company is entitled to receive
royalties from sales of therapeutic products sold by Bayer.  The Company
recognized $2,442,923 in revenue under this agreement for the quarter ended
December 31, 1997.

In October 1996, the Company announced the introduction of BRACAnalysis(TM), a
comprehensive BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene sequence analysis for susceptibility to
breast and ovarian cancer.  The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary
Myriad Genetic Laboratories, Inc., began accepting testing samples on a
commercial basis on October 30, 1996.  Genetic testing revenues of $524,918 were
recognized for the quarter ended December 31, 1997.

In April 1997, the Company commenced a three-year collaborative research and
development arrangement with Schering Corporation ("Schering").  The three-year
term may be extended for two additional one-year periods.  This collaboration
provides the Company with an equity investment, license fees, research funding
and potential milestone payments totalling up to $60,000,000.  The Company is
entitled to receive royalties from sales of therapeutic products sold by
Schering.  The Company recognized $750,000 in revenue under this agreement for
the quarter ended December 31, 1997.

In October 1997, the Company announced that Schering has licensed the
therapeutic rights to the MMAC1 gene. The MMAC1 gene has been associated with
advanced cancers of the brain, prostate, breast, kidney, and skin.  The
licensing of this gene triggered a milestone payment of $2,000,000 from Schering
to the Company.  The Company may receive additional drug development milestone
payments and royalties on therapeutic products based on the MMAC1 gene and its
pathway.  Myriad has retained the rights to the molecular diagnostic potential
of the MMAC1 gene.

In January 1998, the Company announced the introduction of a new genetic test,
CardiaRisk(TM), to be performed by its wholly owned subsidiary, Myriad Genetic
Laboratories, Inc.  CardiaRisk(TM), which identifies a mutation in the AGT gene,
will assist physicians both in (i) identifying which hypertensive patients are
at a significantly increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease and (ii)
identifying which patients are likely to respond to low salt diet therapy and
antihypertensive drug therapy.

Additionally, in January 1998 the Company announced the successful use of its
ProNet(TM) protein interaction technology in discovering three new genes.  The
MMSC1 gene appears to interact directly with the MMAC1 brain and prostate cancer
gene.  The CtIP gene was linked to the pathway of the BRCA1 breast and ovarian
cancer gene, 

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
and the MKK3 gene acts as a tumor suppressor in lung cancer. These genes are
believed to provide new avenues for developing cancer therapies.

The Company intends to enter into additional collaborative relationships to
locate and sequence genes associated with other common diseases as well as
continuing to fund internal research projects.  There can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to enter into additional collaborative relationships on
terms acceptable to the Company.  The Company expects to incur losses for at
least the next several years, primarily due to expansion of its research and
development programs, increased staffing costs and expansion of its facilities.
Additionally, the Company expects to incur substantial sales, marketing and
other expenses in connection with building its genetic testing business.  The
Company expects that losses will fluctuate from quarter to quarter and that such
fluctuations may be substantial.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 31, 1997 and 1996

Research revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 increased $1,846,150
from the same quarter of 1996. The increase was attributable primarily to the
Company's new and expanded corporate research collaboration agreements,
consisting of Schering, initiated in April 1997, and Bayer, expanded in November
1997, respectively. The Company recognized $750,000 from Schering and $950,000
from Bayer during the quarter ending December 31, 1997 as a result of the new
and expanded agreements.  Research revenue from the corporate collaboration
agreements is recognized as related costs are incurred.  Consequently, as these
programs progress and costs increase, revenues increase proportionately.

Genetic testing revenues of $524,918 were recognized in the quarter ended
December 31, 1997, an increase of $490,858 over the same quarter of 1996.
Genetic testing revenue is comprised of sales of diagnostic tests resulting from
the Company's discovery of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 breast and ovarian cancer genes.
The tests for genetic predisposition to breast and ovarian cancer were launched
by the Company in October 1996 with the first commercial test received in
November 1996.  Sales and marketing efforts since that time have given rise to
the increased revenues in 1997.

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 1997
decreased to $5,005,520 from $5,045,154 for the same quarter of 1996.  During
the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company devoted substantial efforts to
the development of its breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility test,
BRACAnalysis(TM).  With the successful launch of BRACAnalysis(TM), efforts
during the quarter ended December 31, 1997 were focused on processing the test,
resulting in increased charges to genetic testing cost of revenue and decreased
research and development charges.  Additionally, the Company paid a significant
one-time license fee to one of its collaborators in the quarter ended December
31, 1996.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended December 31,
1997 increased $872,320 from the same quarter of 1996.  The increase was
primarily attributable to costs associated with the ongoing promotion of
BRACAnalysis(TM), including the hiring of an outside sales force consisting of
50 sales representatives.  The increase is also a result of additional internal
sales and marketing personnel, market research activities, educational material
development, and facilities-related costs.  The Company expects its general and
administrative expenses will continue to increase in support of its genetic
predisposition testing business and its research and development efforts.

Interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 decreased to $836,555
from $886,783 or 5.6% for the same quarter of 1996.  This decrease was primarily
due to the decreased funds available for investment, which were spent in the
ordinary course of business.  The Company has been able to maintain its cash
reserves at a relatively constant level as a result of its ongoing collaborative
research agreements, entering new collaborative agreements, achieving research
milestones, and sales of its genetic tests.  As a result, interest income has
not changed significantly from the prior year.  Interest expense for the quarter
ended December 31, 1997, amounting to $9,449, was due entirely to borrowings
under the Company's equipment financing facility.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended December 31, 1997 and 1996

Research revenues increased to $10,078,932 in the first six months of fiscal
year 1998 from $4,913,521 in the first six months of fiscal year 1997.  The
increase was attributable primarily to the Company's new and expanded 

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
corporate research collaboration agreements, consisting of Schering, initiated
in April 1997, and Bayer, expanded in November 1997, respectively, and a
milestone payment. The Company recognized $1,500,000 from Schering and $950,000
from Bayer during the six months December 31, 1997 as a result of the new and
expanded agreements, as well as a $2,000,000 milestone payment from Schering.

Genetic testing revenues of $934,463 were recognized in the six months ended
December 31, 1997, an increase of $900,403 over the same six month period of
1996.  Genetic testing revenue is comprised of sales of BRACAnalysis(TM) and
related diagnostic tests resulting from the Company's discovery of the BRCA1 and
BRCA2 breast and ovarian cancer genes.  The tests for genetic predisposition to
breast and ovarian cancer were launched by the Company in October 1996 with the
first commercial test received by the Company in November 1996.  Sales and
marketing efforts since that time have given rise to the increased revenues in
1997.

Research and development expenses for the six months ended December 31, 1997
increased to $11,206,159 from $9,139,897 for the prior year.  This increase was
primarily due to an increase in research activities as a result of the Company's
collaborations with Novartis, Bayer, and Schering, as well as those programs
funded by the Company. The increased level of research spending includes third
party research programs, increased depreciation charges related to purchasing
additional equipment, the hiring of additional research personnel and the
associated increase in use of laboratory supplies and reagents.  The Company
also made a payment for a milestone achieved by an academic collaborator during
the six month period ended December 31, 1997.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended December
31, 1997 increased $1,249,589 from the six month period in the prior year.  The
increase was primarily attributable to costs associated with the ongoing
promotion of BRACAnalysis(TM) as well as additional administrative, sales,
marketing and education personnel, market research activities, educational
material development, and facilities-related costs.  The Company expects its
general and administrative expenses will continue to increase in support of its
genetic predisposition testing business and its research and development
efforts.

Interest income for the first six months of fiscal year 1998 decreased to
$1,701,359 from $1,735,277 for the first six months of fiscal year 1997.  This
decrease was primarily due to less funds being available for investment which
funds were spent in the ordinary course of business.  The Company has been able
to maintain its cash reserves at a relatively constant level as a result of its
ongoing collaborative research agreements, entering new collaborative
agreements, achieving research milestones, and sales of its genetic tests.  As a
result, interest income has not changed significantly from the prior year.
Interest expense for the six months ended December 31, 1997, amounting to
$20,897, was due entirely to borrowings under the Company's equipment financing
facility.  The gain on sale of fixed assets of $121 in the six months ended
December 31, 1997 and loss on sale of fixed assets of $7,992 in the six months
ended December 31, 1996 are the result of the sale of out-dated equipment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash used in operating activities was $1,762,012 during the quarter ended
December 31, 1997 as compared to net cash used of $3,534,907 during the same
quarter of the prior fiscal year.  Trade receivables were established during
1997 as a result of the Company allowing terms for payment for its
BRACAnalysis(TM) breast and ovarian cancer predisposition tests.  In the prior
year, all tests were prepaid by the customer.  Non-trade receivables increased
$12,579 between September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1997, primarily as a result
of certain patent legal fees which the Company has incurred and which will be
reimbursed by one of the Company's collaborative partners. Prepaid expenses
increased $115,844 during the quarter ended December 31, 1997.  The increase is
primarily due to annual insurance payments made at year end for 1998 coverage.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased between September 30, 1997 and
December 31, 1997 as a result of increased accruals for unbilled work provided
by the Company's research collaborators.  Deferred revenue, representing the
difference in collaborative payments received and research revenue recognized,
decreased $349,230 during the quarter ended December 31, 1997.

The Company's investing activities used cash in the amount of $1,838,018 in the
three months ended December 31, 1997 and provided cash of $4,028,024 in the
three months ended December 31, 1996.  Investing activities were comprised
primarily of capital expenditures for research equipment, office furniture, and
facility improvements and marketable investment securities.  During the quarter
ended December 31, 1997, the Company shifted a portion of its 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
investment in marketable securities from cash and cash equivalents to longer
term investments in order to take advantage of more favorable interest rates.

Financing activities provided $161,560 during the quarter ended December 31,
1997.  The Company reduced the amount of principal owing on its equipment
financing facility by $84,388.  This use of cash was more than offset by cash
proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants.  Financing activities used
$77,971 during the quarter ended December 31, 1996 primarily as a result of
payments to reduce the principal on its equipment financing facility in the
amount of $76,099.

In October 1997, the Company entered into an arrangement with SBC under which
the Company simultaneously purchased and sold call options on its own Common
Stock resulting in a payment of $100,000 to the Company. The capped call option
purchased by the Company ("Contract A") gives the Company the right, at option
expiration, to (i) purchase 400,000 shares of its own stock at a strike price of
$32.25 or (ii) receive a cash settlement in an amount equal to the difference
between the strike price and the lesser of the market price at the exercise date
or the cap price of $40.50.

The call option sold by the Company ("Contract B") gives SBC the right, at
option expiration, to purchase 400,000 shares of newly issued Myriad Common
Stock, subject to the effectiveness of a registration statement, at a strike
price of $40.50.  Alternatively, the Company may elect to cash settle, or net
share settle the option.  It is managements intent to cash settle contract A,
and if the market price exceeds $40.50 at the option expiration date, to settle
Contract B through the issuance of Myriad stock.  If both contracts are
exercised, the Company may receive up to $19,500,000 or $48.75 per share.  Both
call options will expire in December 1998.

SBC has advised that it has engaged, and may engage, in transactions, including
buying and selling shares of the Company's Common Stock, to offset its risk
relating to the options.  Purchases and sales could affect the market price of
the Company's Common Stock.

The Company anticipates that its existing capital resources, including the net
proceeds of its October 1995 initial public offering and interest earned
thereon, will be adequate to maintain its current and planned operations for at
least the next two years, although no assurance can be given that changes will
not occur that would consume available capital resources before such time.  The
Company's future capital requirements will be substantial and will depend on
many factors, including progress of the Company's research and development
programs, the results and cost of clinical correlation testing of the Company's
genetic tests, the costs of filing, prosecuting and enforcing patent claims,
competing technological and market developments, payments received under
collaborative agreements, changes in collaborative research relationships, the
costs associated with potential commercialization of its gene discoveries, if
any, including the development of manufacturing, marketing and sales
capabilities, the cost and availability of third-party financing for capital
expenditures and administrative and legal expenses.  Because of the Company's
significant long-term capital requirements, the Company intends to raise funds
when conditions are favorable, even if it does not have an immediate need for
additional capital at such time.

Impact of the Year 200 Issue

The Company has completed a review of its existing and planned computer software
and hardware and has determined that the costs and/or consequences associated
with the Year 2000 issue are not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's business, operations or future financial results or future financial
condition.

Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations

The Company believes that this report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-
looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995.  Such statements are based on management's current
expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties which
could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the
forward-looking statements.  The Company cautions investors that there can be no
assurance that actual results or business conditions will not differ materially
from those projected or suggested in such forward-looking statements as a result
of various factors, including, but not limited to, the following: intense
competition related to the discovery of disease-related genes and the
possibility that others may discover, and 

                                       10
<PAGE>
 
the Company may not be able to gain rights with respect to, genes important to
the establishment and operation of a successful genetic testing business;
difficulties inherent in developing genetic tests once genes have been
discovered; the Company's limited experience in operating a genetic testing
laboratory; the Company's limited marketing and sales experience and the risk
that tests which the Company has or may develop may not be able to be marketed
at acceptable prices or receive commercial acceptance in the markets that the
Company is targeting or expects to target; uncertainty as to whether there will
exist adequate reimbursement for the Company's services from government, private
health care insurers and third-party payors; and uncertainties as to the extent
of future government regulation of the Company's business. As a result, the
Company's future development efforts involve a high degree of risk. For further
information, refer to the more specific risks and uncertainties disclosed
throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

                          PART II - Other Information


Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.

On November 17, 1997, OncorMed, Inc. ("OncorMed") filed an action in the United
States District Court of the District of Columbia alleging infringement by the
Company of patent number 5,654,155 entitled "Consensus Sequence of the Human
BRCA1 Gene" issued to OncorMed by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
("USPTO"). The action is seeking a permanent injunction and unspecified damages.
On December 8, 1997, the Company filed an answer and counterclaim. 

On December 2, 1997, the Company filed an action against OncorMed in the United
States District Court for the District of Utah alleging infringement of patent
number 5,693,473 entitled "Linked Breast and Ovarian Cancer Susceptibility Gene"
issued to the Company on December 2, 1997 by the USPTO. The action is seeking a
preliminary and permanent injunction and unspecified damages. OncorMed has filed
an answer and counterclaim. 

On January 20, 1998, the Company filed an action against OncorMed in the United
States District Court for the District of Utah alleging infringement of patent
number 5,709,999 entitled "Linked Breast and Ovarian Cancer Susceptibility Gene"
issued to the Company on January 20, 1998 by the USPTO. The action is seeking a
preliminary and permanent injunction and unspecified damages. OncorMed has filed
an answer and counterclaim. 

On January 20, 1998, OncorMed filed an action against the Company in the United
States District Court for the District of Columbia alleging incorrect
inventorship of patent numbers 5,093,473 and 5,709,999. The action is seeking to
correct inventorship and seeks unspecified damages. The Company moved to 
dismiss the action on February 9, 1998.

The Company believes that it has valid defenses to the OncorMed actions listed 
above, and all cases are, and will continue to be vigorously defended. 
Management is unable to make a meaningful estimate of the amount or range of 
loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome of any of these cases. 
Management believes, however, that the ultimate outcome of all of these cases 
should not have a material effect on the Company's financial position.

Item 2.   Changes in Securities.

(c)  Sales of Unregistered Securities
     --------------------------------

During the three months ended December 31, 1997, the Company issued a total of
15,000 shares of Common Stock to an employee of the Company pursuant to the
exercise of stock options at a weighted average price of $.028 per share. During
the same period, the Company issued a total of 3,559 shares of Common Stock to
various holders of warrants issued to Spencer Trask Securities Incorporated, the
placement agent for the Company's 1993 private placement of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock, at a weighted average exercise price of $7.00 per share.

In October 1997, the Company sold to SBC a call option entitling SBC to purchase
from the Company at a strike price of $40.50 per share, an aggregate of 400,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock. In exchange, the Company purchased from
SBC a capped call option giving the Company the right to purchase from SBC up to
a total of 400,000 shares of Myriad Common Stock at a strike price of $32.25 on
a specified date. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."

No person acted as an underwriter with respect to the transactions set forth
above. In each of the foregoing instances, the Company relied on Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or Rule 701
promulgated under the Securities Act for the exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, since no public offerings were involved.

(d)  Use of Proceeds
     ---------------

The Company filed its initial Form SR with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on January 15, 1996 reporting for the period from October 5, 1995
(the effective date of the Company's registration statement for its initial
public offering) through January 5, 1996. The Company filed through July 1997
amendments to its Form
                                      12
<PAGE>
 
SR covering each subsequent six month period on a timely basis. Since November
1997, the Company has included information concerning use of proceeds in its
Forms 10-Q, the most recent of which was filed November 14, 1997 for the quarter
ended September 30, 1997 ("September 30, 1997 Form 10-Q"). The following
schedule reflects as of December 31, 1997 an estimate of the amount of net
offering proceeds received by the Company from its initial public offering used
for each of the purposes listed below (and reflects only the changes to the
information provided by the Company in its September 30, 1997 Form 10-Q).

          year for the Original Research Term or less than [    ] full time
          equivalent employees per year for research in the Depression Field or
          Dementia Field through the date of termination.

          The remainder of Section 2.1.3 remains unchanged, except that the
          words "Research Term" in the third sentence of such section shall be
          replaced with the words "Original Research Term".

     3.   The following sentence shall be added at the end of Section 2.1.4:

          The parties shall mutually agree upon a schedule for completing the
          Annual Research Plan related to the Depression Field and the Dementia
          Field, with the goal of efficient incorporation of such planning
          process into the ongoing work of the RSC.


     4.   The following sentence shall be added at the end of Section 2.1.5.

          Myriad and its Affiliates will not, except under the Research Program,
          perform sponsored research for any other company or other institution
          with respect to genes within the Dementia Field, however nothing
          herein will prevent Myriad from entering into non-exclusive licenses
          for access to its ProNet Database or the licensing of rights with
          respect to intellectual property therein.

     5.   The final sentence of Section 2.2.1 is replaced with the following
          sentence:

          If the Annual Research Plans for any Subfield in the Original Research
          Field allocate less than [    ] to the Research Program for such
          Subfield for more than one year, then Myriad may, at its option, elect
          to cause all genes in such Subfield to be Discontinued Target Genes
          under Section 2.28 hereof.

                                       5

     6.   Section 2.3.1 is revised as follows:

          2.3.1  The Research Term with respect to that portion of the Research
          Program related to the Original Research Field ("the Original Research
          Term") shall commence on the Effective Date and terminate five (5)
          years after the Effective Date unless extended as provided below or
          unless earlier terminated by either party pursuant to the termination
          provisions below. [    ]. The Research Term with respect to that
          portion of the Research Program related to the Depression Field (the
          "Additional Research Term") shall commence as of the effective date of
          this Amendment and shall terminate on September 10, 2002, unless
          extended as provided below or unless earlier terminated by either
          party pursuant to the termination provisions below. The term for the
          Dementia Field shall commence as of the effective date of this
          Amendment and terminate on December 31, 2000 unless extended by the
          agreement of both parties. Bayer shall have the exclusive option, in
          its discretion, to extend the term for the Dementia Field in one year
          increments provided that Bayer funds the Dementia Field for each such
          extension at funding levels to be negotiated in good faith by Bayer
          and Myriad, but in no event less than [    ] per year during any
          extension. For purposes of Section 2.3.2 below, (i) "Research Term"
          shall mean the Original Research Term or the Additional Research Term,
          as the case may be, and (ii) "Field" shall mean the Original Research
          Field or the Depression Field, or the Dementia Field as the case may
          be, such that the provisions of Section 2.3.2, governing the extension
          of the Research Program, shall apply separately to the Original
          Research Term and the Additional Research Term. By way of example, the
          extension of the Original Research Term for an additional year beyond
          September 10, 2000 will require Bayer to provide at least [    ] of
          funding for ongoing research in the Original Research Field, while
          Bayer shall continue to provide a total of [    ] per year for
          research in the Depression Field and the Dementia Field during the
          Additional Research

           Term.

     7.    Add a new Section 16 as follows:

     16.   OPTION PERIOD FOR INTERACTIVE PROTEINS

     16.1  Option for Interactive Proteins. Bayer, with Myriad's consultation,
           -------------------------------                                     
     shall identify the initial baits for use in Myriad's high-throughput yeast
     two hybrid screen and select the subset of Interactive Proteins for the
     successive yeast two hybrid analysis. Upon the identification of an initial
     Interactive Protein (P\\o\\), the Selection Period will begin for that
     Interactive Protein. During the Selection Period, Bayer and Myriad will
     further evaluate the Interactive Protein which has been identified. Upon
     the earlier of either: (a) the identification of a second Interactive
     Protein (P\\1\\) which interacts with the initial Interactive Protein
     \\Po\\; or (b) the expiration of a period of [ ] from the identification of
     the initial Interactive Protein P\\o\\ in the event identification of a
     second Interactive Protein P\\1\\ is not underway within [ ] of
     identification of the initial Interactive Protein P\\o\\, Bayer shall have
     a period of [ ] (the "Exercise Period") to exercise an option for a period
     of [ ] ("Option Period") to obtain an exclusive world-wide License (as
     defined in Section 7.1 of the 1995 Agreement) including but not limited to
     interactive proteins, Interactions, genes encoding them, the use of these
     genes in research and drug screening, and transgenic cell lines and animals
     containing these genes, Human Therapeutic Products which are comprised or
     derived of any Interactive Protein within the Pathway. Prior to the end of
     the Option Period, Bayer may exercise its right to acquire an exclusive
     world-wide License to the Interactive Protein upon the payment by Bayer to
     Myriad of [ ]. In addition, Bayer may extend the Option Period for any
     specific Interactive Protein for an additional [ ] upon the payment of [ ]
     Option Extension Fee per Interactive Protein. The License will contain a
     milestone payment of [ ] at Decision Point No.1 which is defined as the
     point at which a compound is considered to be characterized pursuant to the
     1995 Agreement and is accepted by Bayer as a candidate for clinical
     development and in addition, the milestone payment obligations numbered 3
     through 6 as
                                       7
<PAGE>
 
     set forth in Section 3.2 (Milestone Payments), as well as the royalty rates
     and other terms and conditions contained in said Section 3.2 and Article 7
     of the 1995 Agreement.

     16.1.1    If Bayer has not exercised its option prior to the end of the
     Exercise Period, Myriad shall retain all rights to the Interactive
     Protein(s) and may place the Interactive Protein(s) into the ProNet
     Database.  Thereafter, Bayer will have the right to seek a license from
     Myriad at any time, provided that Myriad has not licensed the rights to the
     Interactive Protein(s) to another party.

     16.1.2    If Bayer has not exercised its right to acquire a License prior
     to the end of the Option Period, Myriad shall retain all rights to all
     Interactive Proteins and may place all Interactive Protein(s) into the
     ProNet Database. Thereafter, Bayer will have the right to seek a License
     from Myriad at any time, provided that Myriad has not licensed the rights
     to the Interactive Protein(s) to another party.

     16.2  Successive Interactive Proteins.  The identification of each
           -------------------------------                             
     successive Interactive Protein will begin a new Selection Period for each
     successive Interactive Protein.  For example, the identification of a
     second Interactive Protein P\\1\\ which interacts with the initial
     Interactive Protein P\\O\\ will begin the Selection Period for Interactive
     Protein P\\1\\. The identification of a third Interactive Protein (P\\2\\)
     which interacts with the second Interactive Protein P\\1\\ will begin a new
     Selection Period for Interactive Protein P\\2\\.

     16.3  Number of Option Rights.  During the term of this Agreement, Bayer
           -----------------------                                           
     can exercise its option on a maximum of [    ] Interactive Proteins and
     their Pathways identified through the use of the ProNet Technology.

     8.    Funding: In accordance will Appendix II Bayer will pay Myriad [    ]
           -------                
     in 1998 in addition to the funding in the original contract, to be used by
     Myriad in carrying out research in the Depression and Dementia Fields.  In
     1999 and 2000, Myriad will perform research into the 

                                       8

     Depression Field [    ] using the funds in the original contract, and Bayer
     will pay an additional [    ] in each of these years, to be used by Myriad 
     in carrying out research in the Dementia Field.  In the years 2001 and 2002
     Bayer will pay Myriad [    ] each year, to be used by Myriad in carrying 
     out research in the Depression Field. During 1998, such funding shall be
     payable in advance in equal installments of [    ] commencing on January 1,
     1998 and continuing on April 1, 1998, July 1, 1998 and October 1, 1998.  
     Thereafter, during 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002, such funding shall be payable
     in advance in equal installments of [    ] commencing on January 1, 1999 
     and continuing on each April 1, July 1, and October 1 thereafter during the
     Additional Research Term. On or about January 1, 1998, Bayer will make an
     additional one time payment of [    ] to Myriad to be used exclusively in
     carrying out the Research Program in the Depression Field.  All funding
     paid to Myriad under this Amendment and Supplement shall be used by Myriad
     solely to fund the costs (including overhead) incurred by it in carrying
     out the Depression Field portion and the Dementia Field  portion of the
     Research Program.  Milestone payments and payment of Royalties under this
     Amendment and Supplement shall be as provided in Sections 3.2 and 7.4,
     respectively, of the 1995 Agreement.

     9.   Myriad and Bayer hereby agree to expand the Research Committee to
     include up to six (6) members appointed by Bayer and six (6) members
     appointed by Myriad. In accordance with Section 2.2.2 of the 1995
     Agreement, Bayer hereby appoints the following members to the Research 
     Steering Committee [    ].

     10.  The provisions of Section 4.3 of the 1995 Agreement shall apply to the
     disclosures by the parties with respect to this Amendment and Supplement.

     11.  All other provisions of the 1995 Agreement shall continue in full
     force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Amendment and Supplement to be
executed by their duly authorized representatives.
