          proprietary information, and not less than reasonable measures, to
          attempt to ensure that its officers, directors and employees keep,
          confidential, and shall not publish or otherwise disclose, and shall
          not use for any purpose (except as expressly permitted hereunder) any

                 the Receiving Party shall timely give notice to the Disclosing
                 Party so that the Disclosing Party may seek a protective order

                 Confidential Information that, in the opinion of its legal
                 counsel, is legally required to be disclosed, and will exercise
                 reasonable efforts to ensure that any such information so
                 disclosed will be accorded confidential treatment by said court
                 or tribunal.

          6.2.2  The existence and the terms and conditions of this Agreement
                 which the Parties have not specifically agreed to disclose
                 pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be treated by each Party as
                 Confidential Information of the other Party.

          6.2.3  To the extent that it is reasonably necessary or appropriate to
                 fulfill its obligations to comply with the rules controlling

          Agreement to the contrary, 3DP may describe the financial terms of
          this Agreement in confidence, in connection with capital raising or
          financing activities; provided, however, any such recipient of such
          Confidential Information shall agree in writing to keep such terms
          confidential for the same time periods and to an equivalent extent as
          3DP is required to keep Confidential Information confidential under
          this Agreement. Furthermore, BMS acknowledges that 3DP may be
          obligated to disclose terms of this Agreement and make public a copy

          governmental agency shall be redacted such that the extent of any such
          disclosure shall be limited to that which in the reasonable opinion of
          3DP's legal counsel is legally required to be disclosed.

          provisions of Section 2.2.

     7.3  Cooperation. Each Party agrees to endeavor in good faith to coordinate
          its efforts with the other Party in order to minimize or avoid
          interference with the patent prosecution or rights of the other Party
          with respect to patent rights under which the other Party has a
          license.

     7.4  Infringement by Third Parties. In the event that BMS becomes aware of
          any infringement by one or more Third Parties of any of the patents
          within DirectedDiversity(R) Patent Rights or within the ThermoFluor(R)
          Patent Rights, or of any rights in the ThermoFluor(R) Software, BMS
          shall promptly notify 3DP. 3DP shall respond to any such infringement
          by Third Parties in a manner deemed appropriate by 3DP, in its sole
          judgment.

     7.5  Third Party Patent Rights.  If any warning letter or other notice of
          infringement is received by a Party, or action, suit or proceeding is
          brought against a Party alleging infringement of a patent of any Third
          Party with respect to operations under the DirectedDiversity(R) Patent
          Rights or the ThermoFluor(R) Technology,

                             TERM AND TERMINATION

     9.1  Term.  This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and shall
          expire upon the expiration of all of the licenses granted in Article 2
          and Article 3.  The license grant to BMS pursuant to Article 2 shall
          terminate upon the expiration or lapse of the last-to-expire

    portions have been filed separately with the Commission

          and the license grant to BMS pursuant to Article 3 shall terminate
          upon the expiration or lapse of the last-to-expire ThermoFluor(R)
          Patent Rights listed in EXHIBIT C.

     9.2  Termination for Breach. The failure by a Party to comply with any of
          the material obligations contained in this Agreement shall entitle the
          other Party to give notice to the allegedly breaching Party to have
          the default cured. If such default is not cured within sixty (60) days
          after the receipt of such notice, or diligent and ongoing steps are
          not taken to cure, if by its nature such default could not be cured
          within sixty (60) days, the notifying Party shall be entitled, without
          prejudice to any of its other rights conferred on it by this
          Agreement, and in addition to any other remedies that may be available
          to it, to terminate this Agreement, provided, however, that such right
          to terminate shall be stayed in the event that, during such sixty (60)
          day period, the Party alleged to have been in default shall have: (a)
          initiated arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Section
          10.1, below, with respect to the alleged default, and (b) diligently
          and in good faith cooperated in the prompt resolution of such
          arbitration proceedings.

     9.3  No Waiver. The right of a Party to terminate this Agreement, as
          provided in Section 9.2, shall not be affected in any way by its
          waiver or failure to take action with respect to any prior default.

     9.4  Insolvency or Bankruptcy.

          9.4.1  Either Party may, in addition to any other remedies available
                 by law or in equity, terminate this Agreement by written notice
                 to the other Party in the event that the latter Party shall
                 have become insolvent or bankrupt, or shall have an assignment
                 for the benefit of its creditors, or there shall have been
                 appointed a trustee or receiver of the other Party or for all
                 or a substantial part of its property, or any case or
                 proceeding shall have been commenced or other action taken by
                 or against the other Party in bankruptcy or seeking
                 reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, winding-up,
                 arrangement or readjustment of its debts or any other relief
                 under any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other
                 similar act or law of any jurisdiction now or hereafter in
                 effect, or there shall have been issued a warrant of
                 attachment, execution, distraint or similar process against any
                 substantial part of the property of the other Party, and any
                 such event shall have continued for 90 days undismissed,
                 unbonded and undischarged.

          9.4.2  All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this
                 Agreement by BMS or 3DP are, and shall otherwise be deemed to
                 be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code,
                 licenses of right to "Intellectual Property," as defined under
                 Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Parties agree that
                 the Parties, as licensees of such rights under this Agreement,
                 shall retain and may fully exercise all of their

    portions have been filed separately with the Commission

                                      16
<PAGE>

               rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The Parties
               further agree that, in the event of the commencement of a
               bankruptcy proceeding by or against either Party under the U.S.
               Bankruptcy Code, the Party hereto which is not a party to such
               proceeding shall be entitled to a complete duplicate of (or
               complete access to, as appropriate) any such intellectual
               property and all embodiments of such relevant intellectual
               property, and same, if not already in their possession, shall be
               promptly delivered to them (i) upon any such commencement of a
               bankruptcy proceeding upon their written request therefor, unless
               the Party subject to such proceedings elects to continue to
               perform all of their obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) if
               not delivered under (i) above, upon the rejection of this
               Agreement by or on behalf of the Party subject to such proceeding
               upon written request therefor by a nonsubject Party.

     9.5  Survival of Obligations. The termination or expiration of this
          Agreement shall not relieve the Parties of any obligations accruing
          prior to such termination, and any such termination shall be without
          prejudice to the rights of either Party against the other. The
          provisions of Section 2.3, Section 3.6, Section 3.7, Section 3.8,
          Section 3.13, Section 3.14, Section 4.5, Section 5.2, Article 6,
          Section 8.5, Section 9.5, Article 10, Article 11 and Article 12
          (except Section 12.5) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

     9.6  Return of Confidential Information. Upon termination of this Agreement
          by 3DP pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.4, BMS will promptly return all
          3DP Confidential Information related to ThermoFluor(R) Technology
          transferred to it under this Agreement, whether in oral, written,
          graphic or electronic form, and will cease all use of ThermoFluor(R)
          Technology; provided, however, that BMS shall thereafter continue to
          have all rights to use any information or results obtained by BMS from
          its use of ThermoFluor(R) Technology during the term of this
          Agreement, and 3DP will return all BMS Confidential Information
          received hereunder. Notwithstanding the provisions above in Section
          9.6, BMS may retain and use 3DP Confidential Information related to
          ThermoFluor(R) Technology solely with respect to the Instruments it
          has purchased from 3DP hereunder, but not to build or modify any
          Instrument, or any instrument performing the same or similar function
          to an Instrument, and not to disclose to or use such information for
          any Third Party.

                               DISPUTE RESOLUTION

10.1    Dispute Resolution. Any dispute concerning or arising out of this
        Agreement or concerning the existence or validity hereof, shall be
        determined by the following procedure.

        10.1.1  Both Parties understand and appreciate that their long term
                mutual interest will be best served by affecting a rapid and
                fair resolution of any claims or disputes which may arise out of
                services performed under this Agreement or from any dispute
                concerning the terms of this Agreement. Therefore, both Parties
                agree to use their reasonable best efforts to resolve all such
                disputes as rapidly as practicable on a fair and equitable
                basis. Toward this end, both Parties agree to develop and follow
                a process for presenting, rapidly assessing, and settling claims
                on a fair and equitable basis that takes into account the
                precise subject and nature of the dispute.

        10.1.2  If any dispute or claim arising under this Agreement cannot be
                readily resolved by the Parties pursuant to the process
                described above, then the Parties agree to refer the matter to a
                panel consisting of the Chief Executive Officer of 3DP, and the
                Senior Vice President of Early Discovery and Applied Technology
                for BMS, or a comparable position selected by either Party from
                time to time, for review and a non-binding resolution. A copy of
                the terms of this Agreement, agreed upon facts (and areas of
                disagreement), and concise summary of the basis for each side's
                contentions will be provided to both such representatives who
                shall review the same, confer, and attempt to reach a mutual
                resolution of the issue.

        10.1.3  If the matter has not been resolved utilizing the foregoing
                process, and the Parties are unwilling to accept the non-binding
                decision of the indicated panel, either or both Parties may
                elect to pursue definitive resolution through binding
                arbitration, which the Parties agree to accept in lieu of
                litigation or other legally-available remedies (with the
                exception of injunctive relief where such relief is necessary to
                protect a Party from irreparable harm pending the outcome of any
                such arbitration proceeding). Binding arbitration shall be
                settled in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of
                the American Arbitration Association by a panel of three
                arbitrators chosen in accordance with these Rules. This
                Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
                the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to
                the conflicts of laws provisions of Delaware. The arbitration
                will be held in Wilmington, Delaware. Judgment upon the award
                rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction and the
                Parties hereby consent to the said

                    jurisdiction and venue, and further irrevocably waive any
                    objection which either Party may have now or hereafter to
                    the laying of venue of any proceedings in said courts and to
                    any claim that such proceedings have been brought in an
                    inconvenient forum, and further irrevocably agree that a
                    judgment or order in any such proceeding shall be conclusive
                    and binding upon the Parties and may be enforced in the
                    courts of any other jurisdiction.

                                   ARTICLE 11

                                INDEMNIFICATION

        11.1    Indemnification of 3DP. BMS shall indemnify and defend 3DP and
                its Affiliates, and the directors, officers, employees, agents
                and counsel of 3DP and such Affiliates, and the successors and
                assigns of any of the foregoing (the "3DP Indemnitees"), and
                hold the 3DP Indemnitees harmless from and against any and all
                losses resulting from any claim, suit or proceeding brought by
                one or more Third Parties against a 3DP Indemnitee, arising from
                or occurring as a result of the operations by BMS under the
                DirectedDiversity(R) Patent Rights or the ThermoFluor(R)
                Technology or use of the Instruments, or the discovery,
                evaluation, manufacture, import, use, offer for sale or sale of
                products developed in whole or in part through the operations by
                BMS under the DirectedDiversity(R) Patent Rights and the
                ThermoFluor(R) Technology or use of the Instruments, except to
                the extent any such claim, suit or proceeding results from the
                breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement, gross
                negligence or willful misconduct of 3DP.

        11.2    Procedure. Any of the 3DP Indemnitees that intends to claim
                indemnification under this Article 11 shall promptly notify BMS
                (the "Indemnitor") in writing of any liability, damage, loss,
                cost and/or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees)
                arising out of Third Party claims or lawsuits in respect of
                which the 3DP Indemnitee intends to claim such indemnification,
                and shall permit the Indemnitor to assume direction and control
                of the defense of the claim (including the selection of counsel,
                reasonably acceptable to the 3DP Indemnitee, and the right to
                negotiate a settlement, at the discretion of the Indemnitor,
                provided that such settlement does not impose any material
                obligation or detriment on the 3DP Indemnitee), and shall
                cooperate as requested (at the expense of the Indemnitor) in the
                defense of the claim; provided, however, that a 3DP Indemnitee
                shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees
                and expenses to be paid by such 3DP Indemnitee. The failure to
                deliver written notice to the Indemnitor within a reasonable
                time after the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial
                to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve the
                Indemnitor of any liability to the 3DP Indemnitee under this
                Article 11. At the Indemnitor's request, the 3DP Indemnitee
                under this Article 11, and its employees and agents, shall
                cooperate

                fully with the Indemnitor and its legal representatives in the
                investigation of any loss covered by this indemnification and
                provide true, correct and complete information with respect
                thereto.

                                  ARTICLE 12

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

        12.1    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, and the DiscoverWorks Drug
                Discovery Collaboration Agreement, the GPCR License And User
                Agreement and the PERT Internal Use License and Option
                Agreement, all entered into simultaneously with this Agreement,
                constitute and contain the entire understanding and agreement of
                the Parties respecting the subject matters of these respective
                agreements, and cancel and supersede any and all prior
                negotiations, correspondence, understandings and agreements
                between the Parties, whether oral or written, regarding such
                subject matters.

        12.2    Further Actions. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and
                deliver such further instruments and to do all such other acts
                as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the
                purposes and intent of this Agreement.

        12.3    Binding Effect. This Agreement and the rights granted herein
                shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of 3DP,
                BMS, and their successors and permitted assigns.

        12.4    Assignment. Neither Party shall assign this Agreement without
                the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however,
                that either Party may assign this Agreement without the prior
                written consent of the other Party in connection with the sale
                or transfer of substantially all of its assets that relate to
                this Agreement, or in the event of its merger or consolidation
                or change of control or similar transaction. Any permitted
                assignee shall assume all obligations of its assignor under this
                Agreement.

        12.5    Restrictions on Unsolicited Activities. In consideration of the
                licenses granted hereunder, BMS agrees that for the term of this
                Agreement, without the prior written consent of the board of

                the foregoing. Nothing contained in this Section 12.5 shall
                prohibit the ownership by BMS of up to 1% of any class of
                securities of 3DP which are registered pursuant to the Exchange
                Act.

        12.6    No Implied Licenses. No rights to any other patents, Know-how or
                technical information, or other Intellectual Property rights,
                other than as explicitly identified herein, are granted or
                deemed granted by this Agreement. No right, expressed or
                implied, is granted by this Agreement to a Party to use in any
                manner the name or any other trade name or trademark of the
                other Party in connection with the performance of this
                Agreement.

        12.7    No Waiver. No waiver, modification or amendment of any provision
                of this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless made in
                writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of each Party.
                The failure of either Party to assert a right hereunder or to
                insist upon compliance with any term or condition of this
                Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse
                a similar subsequent failure to perform any such term or
                condition.

        12.8    Force Majeure. The failure of a Party to perform any obligation
                under this Agreement by reason of acts of God, acts of
                governments, riots, wars, strikes, accidents or deficiencies in
                materials or transportation or other causes of a similar
                magnitude beyond its control shall not be deemed to be a breach
                of this Agreement.

        12.9    Independent Contractors. Both Parties are independent
                contractors under this Agreement. Nothing contained in this
                Agreement is intended nor is to be construed so as to constitute
                3DP or BMS as partners or joint venturers with respect to this
                Agreement. Neither Party shall have any express or implied right
                or authority to assume or create any obligations on behalf of or
                in the name of the other Party or to bind the other Party to any
                other contract, agreement, or undertaking with any Third Party.

        12.10   Notices and Deliveries. Any formal notices, request, delivery,
                approval or consent required or permitted to be given under this

        12.11   Public Announcements. The Parties shall consult with each other
                and reach mutual written agreement before making any public
                announcement concerning this Agreement or its subject matter.
                Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties may disclose the
                existence and general nature of this Agreement and may make
                disclosures for purposes of satisfying legal and regulatory
                requirements in accordance with Article 6; however, neither
                Party shall use the name of the other Party for promotional
                purposes.

        12.12   Headings. The captions to the sections in this Agreement are not
                a part of this Agreement, and are included merely for
                convenience of reference only and shall not affect its meaning
                or interpretation.

        12.13   Severability. If any provision of this Agreement becomes or is
                declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
                unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full
                force and effect without said provision, so long as the
                Agreement, taking into account said voided provision(s),
                continues to provide the Parties with the same practical
                economic benefits as the Agreement containing said voided
                provision(s) did on the Effective Date. If, after taking into
                account said voided provision(s), the Parties are unable to
                realize the practical economic benefit contemplated on the
                Effective Date, the Parties shall negotiate

                in good faith to amend this Agreement to reestablish the
                practical economic benefit provided the Parties on the Effective
                Date.

        12.14   No Consequential Damages. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR ANY
                OF ITS RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY
                OF ITS AFFILIATES FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR
                CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT,
                NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
                LIMITED TO, LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUE, OR CLAIMS OF CUSTOMERS
                OF ANY OF THEM OR OTHER THIRD PARTIES FOR SUCH OTHER DAMAGES.

        12.15   Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
                interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of
                Delaware, without reference to its conflicts of laws provisions.

        12.16   Advice of Counsel. BMS and 3DP have each consulted with counsel
                of their choice regarding this Agreement, and each acknowledges
                and agrees that this Agreement shall not be deemed to have been
                drafted by one party or another and will be construed
                accordingly.

        12.17   Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, or
                facsimile versions, each of which shall be deemed to be an
                original, and both of which together shall be deemed to be one
                and the same agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by
their respective duly authorized officers as of the date first above written,
each copy of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original.
