ARTICLE 12

PPD OPTION TO PPD PRODUCTS

12.1 PPD Option #1 to Develop PPD Products. PPD may elect to pursue the development and commercialization of one or more of SYR110322, SYR110619, [*] as a PPD Product at such time that TSD is not actively developing or commercializing at least one of SYR110322, SYR110619, [*] (“PPD Option #1”).

12.2 PPD Option #2 to Develop PPD Products. In the event that (a) PPD provides TSD with notice that a material breach has occurred under the Agreement with regard to TSD’s failure to use Diligent Efforts to develop SYR110322, SYR110619, [*]; (b) TSD does not make substantial sustained efforts to effect a cure of such material breach within ninety (90) days of receipt of such written notice by PPD where such substantial sustained efforts are reasonably likely to cure such breach; and (c) PPD provides notice that that such material breach has not been cured, then PPD may pursue the development and commercialization of the Compound that was the subject of the material breach as a PPD Product if PPD provides notice to TSD within one (1) year from the date of written notice of such material breach (“PPD Option #2”).

12.3 PPD Election to Develop PPD Products. PPD may elect to exercise PPD Option #1 or PPD Option #2 by providing TSD with written notice indicating the Compound(s) from among SYR110322, SYR110619, [*] which PPD desires to develop and commercialize. The Parties agree to make an appropriate filing with the Federal Trade Commission under the HSR Act, if necessary, as soon as practicable upon the receipt by TSD of an election by PPD under this Section 12.3, and shall use their best efforts to expedite such filing. The Parties will share equally the HSR Act filing fee and will request early termination of the waiting period.

12.4 License to PPD regarding PPD Products. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, TSD will grant to PPD as of the Effective Date a perpetual, royalty bearing, worldwide, exclusive (even as to TSD) license, with right to grant sublicenses, to all Intellectual Property owned or otherwise Controlled by TSD or its Affiliates related to SYR110322, SYR110619, [*], to develop, make, have made, use, import, offer for sale and sell Products comprising SYR110322, SYR110619, [*] (the “PPD License”). To the extent that TSD is unable to grant an exclusive license to any Intellectual Property Controlled by TSD or an Affiliate of TSD, such license granted by TSD to PPD will be non-exclusive with respect to such Intellectual Property. The PPD License granted by TSD to PPD pursuant to this Section 12.4 is conditioned upon and shall only become

[*] Confidential treatment requested; certain information omitted and filed separately with the SEC.

effective on a Compound by Compound basis following the exercise of PPD Option #1 or PPD Option #2 pursuant to Sections 12.1-12.3, subject to the expiration or earlier termination of any notice and waiting period under the HSR Act, if necessary. Any costs not otherwise reimbursed by PPD for licenses to Third Party intellectual property rights acquired pursuant to Section 5.5, to the extent transferred (TSD does not assure their transferability) from TSD to PPD at PPD’s request, shall be immediately reimbursed by PPD.

12.5 TSD Obligations Following PPD’s Exercise of Option #1 or Option #2. At such time that PPD exercises PPD Option #1 or PPD Option #2 pursuant to Section 12.3, the PPD License shall become effective. Promptly following effectiveness of the PPD License, TSD shall deliver to PPD any and all data and documentation in TSD’s Control relating to the development of such elected Compound. TSD shall also promptly notify PPD if it later discovers any data or documentation in TSD’s Control related to the development of such elected Compound that was not previously delivered to PPD and shall promptly deliver such to PPD. TSD shall also transfer to PPD the legal title to the associated INDs presently on file and any comparable filings in other countries of the Territory for such elected Compound. TSD shall also transfer to PPD ownership of all Drug Substance, CTM and Finished Product of such elected Compound and any other Material in TSD’s possession as of the time such option is exercised.

12.6 Control over development of PPD Products. Following the effectiveness of the PPD License, PPD shall have the right, at its sole discretion and expense, to develop and commercialize such elected Compound. PPD shall be free to select Affiliates, licensees and subcontractors, in its sole discretion, to develop and commercialize PPD Products for such elected Compound, provided however, that PPD shall be liable for all of its obligations under this Article. PPD shall also provide TSD with the same indemnification protection as TSD affords to PPD pursuant to this Agreement for Products.

12.7 Payments to TSD for PPD Products. In regard to any Compound(s) from among SYR110322, SYR110619, [*] that PPD exercises Option #1 or PPD Option #2 pursuant to Section 12.3, then effective as of when PPD exercises such option, PPD shall have the same Milestone Payment and Royalty obligations to TSD that TSD would have had to PPD under Article 5 of this Agreement if it were TSD developing such PPD Product instead of PPD. PPD shall pay TSD out of Net Sales of PPD Products all costs in regard to Drug Substance, CTM and Finished Product of such elected Compound and any other Material transferred to PPD pursuant to Section 12.5.

12.8 Reversion to TSD absent PPD Diligent Efforts All rights granted to PPD under this Article shall be subject to reversion to TSD at any such time that PPD fails to utilize Diligent Efforts to develop and commercialize such elected Compound or materially breaches its obligations under this Article including the payment obligations set forth in Section 12.7.

12.9 Exercise of PPD Option #2 not exclusive remedy. The Parties agree that PPD’s exercise of PPD Option #2 pursuant to Section 12.3 based on a material breach shall not be exclusive or prejudicial to any other rights or remedies that PPD may otherwise have on account of the failure of TSD to use Diligent Efforts to develop SYR110322, SYR110619, [*].

[*] Confidential treatment requested; certain information omitted and filed separately with the SEC.

12.10 Specific Performance as Remedy for Breach of Section 12.5. The Parties agree that following PPD’s proper exercise of PPD Option #1 or PPD Option #2 pursuant to Sections 12.1-12.3, should TSD fail to reasonably comply with its obligations under Section 12.5, then, following such breach, PPD shall have the right to seek specific performance by TSD of its obligations under Section 12.5.

Takeda Acquires the Rights to DPP4 Inhibitors Granted to PPDI

Osaka, Japan/Wilmington, N.C., July xx, 2005 — Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (“Takeda”) and PPD, Inc. (Nasdaq: PPDI) today announced an agreement in which Takeda acquired the development and marketing rights to all dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) inhibitors previously granted to PPD under an agreement between PPD and Syrrx, Inc. Takeda acquired Syrrx, Inc., now known as Takeda San Diego, Inc., in March 2005.

Under the new agreement, Takeda, through Takeda San Diego, acquired all the remaining rights to develop and commercialize the DPP4 inhibitors, which rights had been shared by PPD and Takeda San Diego under the collaboration agreement dated November 19, 2003. In exchange for terminating the collaboration agreement and transferring its rights to Takeda, PPD will receive an upfront payment of US$15.0 million, plus development and sales milestones, and royalties on sales of DPP4 inhibitors if approved for marketing.

The agreement further provides that PPD will serve as the sole provider to Takeda of Phase II and Phase III clinical development services in the US and the EU for the DPP4 inhibitors. This will enable the DPP4 development program to continue without interruption. Further details of the financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

A variety of pre-clinical and clinical findings to date indicate DPP4 inhibitors have the potential to treat type 2 diabetes. DPP4 degrades GLP-1 (Glucagon-like peptide-1), an important hormone that is released in response to the intake of food and that stimulates pancreatic beta cells to increase the secretion of insulin and that has potential to improve beta cell function itself. DPP4 inhibitors, taken orally, work by blocking GLP-1 degradation to keep its concentration for a longer period of time. Therefore, DPP4 inhibitors are expected to be one of the new generation agents for diabetes treatment.

“We are pleased to reach this agreement with PPD, allowing us full rights to DPP4 inhibitors created by our new colleagues at Takeda San Diego,” said Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, President & Chief Operating Officer of Takeda. “We believe that these DPP4 inhibitors will enhance Takeda’s diabetes franchise in the future”.

“We too are excited with the new arrangement with Takeda for the continued development and commercialization of the DPP4 assets,” said Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, Chief Executive Officer of PPD. “With the signing of this agreement, this becomes the second program under which we have advanced the clinical development of a compound and then transferred it to a third party for continued development and commercialization, thereby further validating our compound partnering strategy. As a worldwide leader in diabetes medicines, we believe that Takeda is an outstanding partner for this program.”

7. Section 7.3 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

7.3 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) If any action is brought against a party entitled to indemnification under Section 7.1 or 7.2, as applicable, (each, an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party or Parties shall promptly notify the party obligated to provide indemnification (an “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the institution of such action.

(b) Promptly upon receipt of notice pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly assume the defense of such action, including, without limitation, the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party or Parties, and payment of expenses. An Indemnified Party or Parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties, unless:

(i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such action; or

(ii) the named parties to such action include both the Indemnified Party or Parties and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party or Parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it or them or to other Indemnified Parties which are different from, or in addition to, those available to the Indemnifying Party.

In either of the foregoing events, such fees and expenses shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party or Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, under no circumstances shall the Indemnifying Party be obligated to assume responsibility for the expenses for more than one counsel for all the Indemnified Parties.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 7.3 to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such claim or action effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle or compromise any action, or permit a default or consent to the entry of judgment in, or otherwise seek to terminate, any pending or threatened action, in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party thereto), provided such settlement, compromise, consent, or termination includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such action. In the event such an unconditional release is not obtainable for each Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party must obtain the prior written consent of any Indemnified Party not so released before the Indemnifying Party may enter into such settlement, compromise, consent or termination.

8. PPD represents and warrants that the Sites listed under “Phase II Clinical Research Agreements and Letters of Indemnification” on Schedule 7.1 have not executed contracts with third party providers for services performed under the respective Clinical Research Agreements for Protocol [*] entitled, “[*]”.

10. Except as otherwise amended herein, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
