Executive's employment with OXiGENE, provided that (i) after the Executive's
employment with OXiGENE has terminated, this definition shall apply only with
respect to products and services that are the same as or similar to those that
OXiGENE was engaged in or developing during the last two (2) years of his
employment with OXiGENE; (ii) nothing in this definition shall operate to
prevent Executive from working for or with respect to any subsidiary, division
or affiliate (each, a "Unit") of an entity if that Unit is not itself a
Restricted Business, irrespective of whether some other Unit of such entity
constitutes a Restricted Business (as long as the Executive does not provide any
services for such other Unit); and (iii) Restricted Business will not include
researching, developing, manufacturing, marketing or selling products or
services other than those products or services being researched, developed,
manufactured, marketed, or sold by or on behalf of OXiGENE when the Executive's
employment with OXiGENE terminates.

reasonable and necessary for the protection of OXiGENE and that they may not be

costs, obligations, or liabilities incurred by the Executive as a result of the
Executive's bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence.
