instruments to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound.

power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this
Agreement. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its directors and
stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement by the Company, the authorization, sale, issuance
and delivery of the Shares and the performance of the Company's obligations
hereunder has been taken. This Agreement will constitute, when executed and
delivered by the Company at the Closing, a legal, valid and binding obligation
of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms,
subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and
the relief of debtors and rules of law governing specific performance,
injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, and to limitations of public
policy.
4.5 No Conflict; Governmental Consents.
(a) The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the offer and sale of
the Shares will not result in the violation of any material law, statute, rule,
regulation, order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or
governmental authority to or by which the Company is bound, or of any provision
of the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company or the charter or
other organizational documents of any of its subsidiaries, and will not conflict
with, or result in a breach or violation of, any of the terms or provisions of,
or constitute a default under, any lease, loan agreement, mortgage, security
agreement, trust indenture or other agreement or instrument to which the Company
is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its properties or assets
is subject, where such conflict, breach or default is likely to result in a
material adverse effect on the operations or financial condition of the Company
and its subsidiaries taken as a whole (a "Material Adverse Effect").

governmental authority is required to be obtained by the Company in connection

authorizations currently required for the conduct of its business or ownership
of properties and is in all material respects complying therewith, except for
any licenses, permits or other governmental authorizations, the lack of which
would not likely result in a Material Adverse Effect.
4.7 Litigation. There is no legal action, suit, arbitration or other legal,
administrative or governmental investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries
or any of their respective properties before or by any court, governmental or
administrative agency or regulatory authority which (i) relates to or challenges
the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, (ii) if adversely
determined, would impair the ability of the Company to perform fully any
obligations which it has under this Agreement, or (iii) could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Notification Form: Listing of Additional Shares with Nasdaq with respect to the
trading of the ADRs representing the Shares and hereby represents and warrants
to the Placement Agent and the Investors that it will take any other necessary
action in accordance with the rules of Nasdaq to enable such ADRs to trade on
Nasdaq. There are no proceedings pending or, to the Company's knowledge,
threatened against the Company relating to the continued listing of the ADRs on
Nasdaq and the Company has not received any notice of, nor to the knowledge of

its subsidiaries have conducted their business in the ordinary course and there
has been no material adverse change in the financial condition, operating

Company or its subsidiaries, provided that the incurrence of expenditures at
levels consistent with the Company's practices subsequent to the acquisition of
Laxdale Limited, as adjusted for any additional expenditures incurred in
connection with the conduct of clinical trials and/or research and development
activities, shall not in any event be deemed to constitute a material adverse
change hereunder.

Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004
present fairly and accurately in all material respects the financial position of
the Company as of the dates shown and its results of operations and cash flows
for the periods shown, and such financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with United Kingdom generally accepted accounting principles applied
on a consistent basis.
4.11 Disclosure. Neither this Agreement, the Prospectus nor any of the
Commission Documents contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or
therein, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made,
not misleading.
4.12 Accuracy of Reports. All reports required to be filed by the Company

effect to the filing of any amendments thereto filed with the Commission),
complied at the time of filing in all material respects with the requirements of
their respective forms and, were complete and correct in all material respects
as of the dates at which the information was furnished, and contained (as of
such dates) no untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in

reviewed and considered all information it deemed relevant in making an informed
decision to purchase the Shares; (ii) the Investor is acquiring the number of
Shares set forth on Exhibit A hereto in the ordinary course of its business and
for its own account for investment only and with no present intention of
distributing any of such Shares or any arrangement or understanding with any
other persons regarding the distribution of such Shares in violation of the
securities laws (this representation and warranty not limiting such Investor's
right to sell the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement or otherwise in
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws); (iii) the
Investor will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or
otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise
acquire or take a pledge of) any of the Shares except in compliance with the
Securities Act, applicable state securities laws and the respective rules and
regulations promulgated thereuder; and (iv) the Investor, after giving effect
to the transactions contemplated hereby, will not, either individually or with a
group (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), be the beneficial
owner of 20% or more of the Company's outstanding Ordinary Shares. For purposes
of this Section 5.1, beneficial ownership shall be determined pursuant to
Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act.
5.2 Each Investor outside the United States will comply with all applicable
laws and regulations in each foreign jurisdiction in which it purchases, offers,
sells or delivers Shares or has in its possession or distributes any offering
material, in all cases at its own expense.
5.3 Each Investor hereby covenants with the Company not to make any sale of
the Shares without effectively causing the prospectus delivery requirement under
the Securities Act to be satisfied. Each Investor acknowledges that there may
occasionally be times when the Company, based on the advice of its counsel,
determines that it must suspend the use of the Prospectus forming a part of the
Registration Statement until such time as an amendment to the Registration
Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the Commission
or until the Company has amended or supplemented such Prospectus, provided that
the Company shall not be entitled to suspend the use of such Registration
Statement for longer than sixty (60) days in any 12-month period.
5.4 Each Investor further represents and warrants to, and covenants with,
the Company that (i) the Investor has full right, power, authority and capacity
to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement, and (ii) this Agreement constitutes a valid
and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting
creditors' and contracting parties' rights generally and except as
enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of
whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law)
and except as the indemnification agreements of the Investors herein may be
legally unenforceable.
5.5 Each Investor has received and carefully reviewed the Prospectus and the
Commission Documents and, to the extent the Investor deems appropriate, has
discussed the Commission Documents with representatives of the Company. Each
Investor is also aware of and acknowledges the following:
(a) that no Federal or state agency has made any finding or determination
regarding the fairness of this Offering for investment, or any recommendation or
endorsement of the Shares;
(b) that neither the officers, directors, agents, affiliates or employees
of the Company, nor any other person, has expressly or by implication, made any
representation or warranty concerning the Company other than as set forth in the

predict the results of the ownership of Shares or of the Company's activities.
5.6 Each Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other
materials presented to the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of
the Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Each Investor
acknowledges that no assurances have been made regarding any tax advantages
which may accrue to him or it as a result of an investment in the Company, nor
has any assurance been made that existing tax laws, regulations and
administrative rulings will not be modified in the future, thus denying the
Investor all or a portion of the tax benefits which may currently be, or which
may become, available under existing tax laws, regulations or rulings. Each
Investor represents that he or it has made such independent inquiries as he or
it deems necessary to evaluate properly his or its investment in the Company,
including consultation with such legal, tax and investment advisors as Investor,
in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate.
