3. LICENSE GRANT BY SCRIPTGEN TO 3DP
3.1 In settlement of the Action, Scriptgen hereby grants to 3DP beginning on
the Effective Date, and subject to Sections 3.2 through 3.11, a perpetual,
non-exclusive, worldwide, fully-paid license, with the right to sub-
license, under the `277 patent, the `582 patent, and any patents issuing
from Scriptgen International Application No. PCT/US96/19698, any and all
continuing applications, divisional applications, continuation-in-part
applications, reissues, extensions, renewals and reexaminations thereof,
and any U.S. and foreign counterparts thereof. In addition, Scriptgen
agrees not to file any future patent infringement actions against 3DP for
3DP's use of ThermoFluor Screening Technology that is consistent with the
terms of this Agreement.
-3-
3.2 3DP shall not have the right to assign the license granted herein
except as part of the sale of its ThermoFluor Screening Technology or
business, the sale of substantially all the capital stock or assets of the
corporation, or the merger or consolidation of the corporation.
3.3 During the Restriction Period, 3DP shall be permitted to enter into only
one (1) ThermoFluor Deal, including the right to sub-license, and including
unrestricted sales of ThermoFluor Screening Technology instruments, where
the principal focus of such business arrangement is Infection, provided
however that such ThermoFluor Deal may not involve the Hepatitis C Virus
Field, nor involve more than three (3) other anti-viral targets.
3.4 3DP shall be able to freely secure any partnerships or other business
arrangements involving ThermoFluor Screening Technology, except that during
the Restriction Period the principal focus may not be Infection and 3DP
shall not grant any sublicenses for Infection during the Restriction
Period, except as permitted under Sections 3.3 and 3.10 of this Agreement.
In the event that a partner or other third party requests that 3DP screen,
during the Restriction Period, multiple targets which include Intended
Infection targets, 3DP shall inform such party that it cannot screen such
Infection targets, but shall disclose that such screening can be conducted
by Scriptgen. Scriptgen shall pay to 3DP [**] of all Net Revenues received
during the first year of an agreement which demonstrably resulted from such
an introduction by 3DP.
3.5 During the Restriction Period, Scriptgen may refer to 3DP any third parties
that have requested that Scriptgen screen multiple targets to identify
leads or drugs that are effective in any field other than Infection. In
such event, 3DP shall pay to Scriptgen [**] of all Net Revenues received
during the first year of an agreement which demonstrably resulted from such
an introduction by Scriptgen, if such third party or its Affiliates were
not previously contacted by 3DP.
3.6 3DP shall be free to use ThermoFluor Screening Technology without
restriction in any 3DP Internal Program, except in the Hepatitis C Virus
Field during the Restriction Period, and to license or transfer, in any
manner, any compounds discovered or optimized through such use of
ThermoFluor Screening Technology. 3DP shall not use ThermoFluor Screening
Technology in the Hepatitis C Virus Field during the Restriction Period.
3.7 In the event that 3DP uses ThermoFluor Screening Technology in a 3DP
Internal Program that leads to the designation, during the Restriction
Period, of a Development Compound that leads to a drug in Infection, 3DP
shall pay to Scriptgen a sliding-scale royalty based on 3DP's Net Revenues
from the sale of such drug by 3DP, as follows:
**Certain portions of this Exhibit have been omitted based upon a request for
confidential treatment that has been filed with the Commission. The omitted
portions have been filed separately with the Commission.

-------- -------
All anti-infectives, except anti-virals:
[**] [**]
[**] [**]
All anti-virals [**]
Nothing in this Section 3.7 shall be construed as giving 3DP the right to use
ThermoFluor Screening Technology in the Hepatitis C Virus field during the
Restriction Period.
3.8 The maximum aggregate amount of all royalty payments made under Section
3.7, on a cumulative basis including all such 3DP Internal Programs, shall
not exceed five million United States dollars ($5,000,000).
3.9 In the event that 3DP uses ThermoFluor Screening Technology, in a 3DP
Internal Program that leads to the designation, during the Restriction
Period, of a Development Compound that leads to a drug in Infection, and
3DP subsequently licenses or sells the rights to such drug to a third
party, 3DP shall pay to Scriptgen [**] in the case of anti-infectives
(excluding anti-virals), or [**] in the case of anti-virals, of the up-
front cash payments or sales price received by 3DP from such transaction.
The maximum amount of all such payments in aggregate shall not exceed two
million United States dollars ($2,000,000). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if any such up-front payments are in the form of an investment in equity
securities of 3DP, the amount of such investment, calculated on a per share
basis, that is in excess of [**] of the amount per share paid in the last
3DP equity financing (or, if 3DP is public, [**] of the closing price
immediately prior to the transaction) shall be deemed to be an "up-front
payment" for purposes of this calculation.
3.10 There shall be no limitations on sales, licenses (including the right to
grant sublicenses limited to use of the ThermoFluor Screening Technology
instruments), or leases of ThermoFluor Screening Technology instruments,
except that during the Restriction Period, in the therapeutic field of
Infection, 3DP may only sell, license (including the right to grant
sublicenses limited to use of ThermoFluor Screening Technology
instruments), or lease ThermoFluor Screening Technology instruments as part
of the permitted ThermoFluor Deal in Infection specified in Section 3.3
above.
3.11 The license of Section 3.1 shall not be deemed to grant a license,
directly, or by implication or otherwise, under any know-how, copyright,
trademark, or other intellectual property right.
**Certain portions of this Exhibit have been omitted based upon a request for
confidential treatment that has been filed with the Commission. The omitted
portions have been filed separately with the Commission.

Scriptgen and 3DP Settle Patent Dispute
Companies Cross-License High Throughout Screening - Technologies
To Advance Drug Discovery
Waltham, Massachusetts, and Exton, Pennsylvania, January XX, 2000 - Scriptgen
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and 3-Dimensional Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (3DP) announced
today a mutually beneficial settlement of their dispute over Intellectual
property. 3DP has agreed to purchase a limited, non-exclusive worldwide license
to current and pending patents relating to Scriptgen's ATLAS(R) (Any Target
Ligand Affinity Screen) assay technology - a system for identifying compounds
that are drug candidates. 3DP will grant Scriptgen a limited, non-exclusive
worldwide license to pending patents relating to 3DP's ThermoFluor(R) assay
technology. Under the agreement, both companies can utilize their respective
assay technologies for the identification of novel drugs in a broad range of
therapeutic areas, however, Scriptgen does maintain a preferential position in
the area of anti-infectives. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Scriptgen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx) is a leader in the
discovery of drugs to control the expression of genes. Current programs in the
anti-infective area have identified multiple new drug targets and lead compounds
effective against drug-resistant bacterial, fungal and viral pathogens.
Scriptgen's products include GATH, a family of high-throughput target.
Identification and validation technologies and ATLAS and SCAN, high-throughput
screening technologies for proteins and RNA targets, respectively.
3-Dimensional Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a drug discovery company using
DiscoverWorks(TM), a proprietary technology platform, to reduce the costs and
improve the quality of drugs entering clinical trials. DiscoverWorks(TM)
uniquely integrates high-throughput screening, combinatorial chemistry and
structure-based drug design for efficient drug discovery using targets from
genome sequencing. 3DP uses DiscoverWorks(TM) in its own drug discovery
programs and to provide discovery services to pharmaceutical and agrochemical
partners. The company's
internal research programs are focused on the discovery of orally active small-
molecule pharmaceuticals for the treatment of cardiovascular disease and cancer.
