the terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement, MALLINCKRODT hereby
grants to MIP a non-exclusive, worldwide license under all of MALLINCKRODT's
right, title and interest in the Patent Rights and Technology, to manufacture,
use, sell, offer for sale and import the Product in the MIP Field, as well as to
use the Indium 111 labelled Compound for dosimetry purposes in relation to the

foregoing rights with respect to an Indium 111 labelled Compound to the extent
the FDA or other Regulatory Authority expressly requires the development and use
thereof for dosimetry purposes as a condition to its approval of the Product for
marketing and sale, and provided further that MIP may under no circumstances
market and sell an Indium-111 labelled Compound separately as a diagnostic
imaging agent (i.e., the Indium-labelled Compound can only be marketed and sold
for dosimetry purposes in relation to Product therapy administration). Except as
specifically provided in this Agreement, no licenses are granted by MALLINCKRODT
and MALLINCKRODT retains all other rights under the Patent Rights and the
Technology.
MIP shall have the right to grant sublicenses with respect to the license
rights provided for in this Section 2.1 solely on the following terms and
conditions.
(a) Without MALLINCKRODT'S prior written consent, which MALLINCKRODT
may grant or withhold in its sole and absolute discretion, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary forth in this Agreement, MIP cannot sublicense any
rights to a direct competitor of MALLINCKRODT, as listed in EXHIBIT G.
(b) In the event MIP intends to grant rights of any nature whatsoever
with respect to the commercialization, including but not limited to the
marketing, promoting, distributing, importing or selling, of the Product to any
Third Party(ies), MIP must first offer any such commercialization rights, in
writing, to MALLINCKRODT. Upon receipt of such offer, MALLINCKRODT shall have
sixty (60) days to inform MIP whether it desires to enter into good faith
negotiations with MIP for a definitive agreement with respect to such rights.
Mallinckrodt's rights under this subsection are subject to MIP's obligation to
first provide Novartis with "rights of first discussions", as set forth in
Section 6.5 of the agreement to be entered into between MIP and Novartis
relating to the Product, as referenced in Section 8 of this Agreement.
(c) MIP shall in all events remain directly responsible to
MALLINCKRODT for the performance by any sublicensee of any and all obligations
and/or responsibilities assumed by such sublicensee under this Agreement.
5
(d) The terms and conditions of any Third Party sublicense shall be
consistent in all respects with the terms of this Agreement.
(e) MIP shall cause each sublicensee to execute any and all additional
documents reasonably requested by MALLINCKRODT to reflect the conditions set
forth above.
2.2 TERM OF LICENSE. The term of the license set forth in Section 2.1 shall
commence on the Effective Date and, unless sooner terminated pursuant to Article
9 of this Agreement, shall terminate on a country-by-country basis on the date
when MIP discontinues manufacture and/or sale of the Product, as the case may
be, in such country.
2.3 TRANSFER OF THE TECHNOLOGY.
(a) During the period commencing no later than thirty (30) days after
the Effective Date and terminating not later than one-hundred eighty (180) days
thereafter, MALLINCKRODT shall make available research and development and
production personnel to physically transfer the Technology to MIP personnel.
Such MALLINCKRODT personnel shall be knowledgeable about the Technology, shall
be reasonably capable of transferring the Technology to MIP, and shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to transfer the Technology to MIP personnel. MIP
must at all times during the one-hundred eighty (180) period referenced in the
preceding sentence provide knowledgeable and capable personnel to be the
recipients of the transfer of the Technology. Exhibit B is an all-inclusive list
of the specific services to be provided by MALLINCKRODT personnel hereunder.
MALLINCKRODT shall transfer the Technology to MIP on an "AS IS" basis.
(b) MALLINCKRODT's obligation to provide transfer of the Technology is
in all events limited to ninety (90) work days (i.e., one MALLINCKRODT employee
working ninety (90) days at eight (8) hours per day) or completion by
MALLINCKRODT of the specific services identified in Exhibit B, whichever comes
first.
(c) For purposes of calculating the amount of time devoted by
MALLINCKRODT personnel to the transfer of Technology required under this
Agreement, each response by MALLINCKRODT to a request by MIP or its Affiliates
for assistance, whether in the form of a written communication, oral request, or
otherwise, shall be accounted for as an expenditure of time equal to the greater
of (i) four (4) hours or (ii) the actual time spent by MALLINCKRODT responding
to the request for assistance. For example, if an employee of MIP requests, by
telephone call, assistance with Technology transfer and a MALLINCKRODT employee
devotes two (2) hours responding to the request, MALLINCKRODT shall, for
6
purposes of this Agreement, be considered to have provided four (4) hours of
Technology transfer services.
(d) In the event the MALLINCKRODT personnel referenced above are
required to travel away from their regular place of employment, MIP will
reimburse MALLINCKRODT for all reasonable travel and living expenses incurred by
such personnel upon submission by MALLINCKRODT of an itemized account of
expenses for which it seeks reimbursement. Travel time will be considered
working time of MALLINCKRODT employees for purposes of determining
MALLINCKRODT's compliance with its obligations under this Section.
2.4 ADDITIONAL TRANSFER OF THE TECHNOLOGY. If, during the first twelve (12)
months this Agreement is in effect, MIP determines that it requires additional
Technology transfer from MALLINCKRODT, MIP shall provide to MALLINCKRODT a list
of its specific additional requirements for MALLINCKRODT's consideration. If the
request is acceptable to MALLINCKRODT in its reasonable discretion, MALLINCKRODT
shall provide up to an additional ninety (90) work days in thirty (30) work day
increments of Technology transfer during a similar period and in the manner set
forth in Section 2.3. MIP shall make the payment described in Section 3(d) prior
to the commencement of such additional Technology transfer.
2.5 CERTIFICATION BY MALLINCKRODT. Upon completion by MALLINCKRODT of its
obligation(s) to transfer the Technology under Sections 2.3 and/or 2.4 of this
Agreement, MALLINCKRODT shall provide a written certification of completion to
MIP in the form attached to this Agreement as EXHIBIT C. Absent manifest error
demonstrated by MIP, and subject to MIP's rights to additional technical
support, if applicable, as set forth in Section 2.4, such certification shall
for all purposes be deemed conclusive and final evidence of MALLINCKRODT's full
and complete performance of its Technology transfer obligations to MIP.

its Affiliates or sublicensees, nor MALLINCKRODT shall use Confidential
Information of the other Party except as expressly permitted under this
Agreement.
7.1.2 Each Party agrees that it will disclose the other Party's
Confidential Information to its officers, employees, agents or Affiliates only
if and to the extent necessary to carry out its responsibilities under this

Parties (the "MALLINCKRODT Confidentiality Agreement.") In the event of any
inconsistencies between the terms of this Agreement and the MALLINCKRODT
Confidentiality Agreement, the terms of the MALLINCKRODT Confidentiality
Agreement shall govern, except that MIP shall, without regard to the terms of
the MALLINCKRODT Confidentiality Agreement, be authorized to communicate
MALLINCKRODT Confidential Information to a permitted sublicensee hereunder (as
provided for in Section 2.1) to the extent required for the performance by such
permitted sublicensee of the obligations that are subject to the sublicense.
7.2 PUBLICITY. Except as required by law, and except for a mutually
approved press release to be issued upon the signing of this Agreement, neither
Party may disclose the terms of this Agreement without the written consent of
the other Party; provided, however, that MIP may disclose the terms, or provide
copies, of this Agreement as necessary in the normal course of business to
bankers, investors and others in order to obtain financing.
7.3 DISCLOSURE REQUIRED BY LAW. If MALLINCKRODT is requested to disclose
MIP Confidential Information in connection with a legal or administrative
proceeding or is otherwise required by law to disclose the Confidential
Information, it will give MIP prompt notice of such request. MIP may seek an
appropriate protective order or other remedy or waive compliance with the
provisions of this Agreement. If MIP seeks a protective order or other remedy,
MALLINCKRODT will cooperate at MIP's sole cost and expense. If MIP fails to
obtain a protective order or waive compliance with the relevant provisions of
this Agreement, MALLINCKRODT will disclose only that portion of MIP Confidential
Information which its legal counsel determines it is required to disclose.
8. NO OTHER AGREEMENTS. Except for the MALLINCKRODT Confidentiality Agreement,
this Agreement is the sole agreement between the Parties with respect to the

between the Parties with respect to same; provided, however, the execution of
the proposed agreement between MIP and Novartis with respect to the Product
prior to or on even date with this Agreement, together with the execution by
MALLINCKRODT and Novartis of the Termination Agreement, are condition precedents
to the force and effectiveness of this Agreement. If such agreement is not
executed in
10
the time described, this Agreement will lapse and the Parties will have no
obligation of any kind to each other; provided that such lapse will have no
effect on the continuing enforceability of the MALLINCKRODT Confidentiality
Agreement in accordance with its terms.
