(d) Other Licensed Patent Rights. Calando shall have the initial right, at its own expense and in its own name, to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain any Licensed Patent Rights other than the Caltech Joint Patent Rights, Caltech Sole Patent Rights and RNAi Patent Rights.

making, having made, using, marketing, offering to sell, distributing, selling or importing any product that falls within the scope of the definition of “Licensed Product” (but not a product that falls within the scope of the definition of “Retained Product”). Calando shall join as a party to any such suit brought by Cerulean, if requested by Cerulean, but shall be under no obligation to participate except to the extent that such participation is required as the result of being a named party to the suit. Upon Cerulean’s request, Calando shall provide reasonable assistance to Cerulean in connection therewith at no charge to Cerulean except for reimbursement of Calando’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in rendering such assistance. Any recoveries resulting from such action (whether in the form of damages, royalties, settlement payments or otherwise) shall first be applied to reimburse Cerulean for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such proceeding (and any out-of-pocket expenses of Calando paid by Cerulean) and (A) to the extent that the remaining recovery represents lost profits, such remaining recovery shall be retained by Cerulean, with Calando entitled to receive an amount equal to the royalties that would have been due Calando on sales of the relevant Licensed Product lost by Cerulean as a result of the infringement and (B) to the extent that the remaining recovery represents punitive or other damages, Cerulean shall be entitled to [**] percent ([**]%) of such remaining recovery and Calando shall be entitled to [**] percent ([**]%) of such remaining recovery.

(A) Prior to taking any action, Calando shall confer with Cerulean and give due consideration to Cerulean’s reasons for not pursuing such alleged infringer.

(B) The action or suit shall be brought in the name of Caltech and/or Calando and Calando shall bear the entire cost of such action or suit. Calando shall promptly provide Cerulean with copies of all litigation pleadings and other documents submitted to the court.

(C) With respect to any consideration received by Calando in connection with such action or suit, Calando shall first be entitled to deduct its litigation expenses and legal fees (including any incurred as part of an indemnification of Cerulean). All remaining recovery shall be split equally between Calando and Cerulean.

(D) If it shall be necessary for Calando to join Cerulean as a party to an action or suit because Cerulean constitutes a legally indispensable party, Calando shall have the right to so join Cerulean; provided, that Calando indemnifies Cerulean for all outside costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees) thereby incurred by Cerulean.

(iii) Calando shall have the sole right to initiate an appropriate suit anywhere in the world against any Third Party who at any time is suspected of infringing all or any portion of the Licensed Patent Rights other than the RNAi Patent Rights, or using without proper authorization all or any portion of the Licensed Know-How, by researching, developing, making, having made, using, marketing, offering to sell, distributing, selling or importing any product that falls within the scope of the definition of “Retained Product” (but not a product that falls within the definition of “Licensed Product”).

Neither Party shall settle any suit described in this Section 7.3 involving rights of the other Party without obtaining the prior written consent of such other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

7.4 Power of Attorney. Calando hereby constitutes and appoints the President of Cerulean with full power of substitution, the true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent of Calando, to execute, acknowledge, verify, swear to, deliver, record and file, in Calando’s or its assignee’s name, place and stead, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, all instruments, documents and certificates which may from time to time be required by the laws of the governmental authority to prosecute, maintain and enforce the Licensed Patent Rights other than the RNAi Patent Rights, and to prepare and file any patent applications covering Licensed Know-How, in each case to the extent Calando or its assignee has such right pursuant to this Section 7. The power of attorney granted herein will be deemed to be coupled with an interest, will survive and not be affected by the dissolution, bankruptcy or legal disability of Calando and will extend to its successors and assigns. If required, Calando shall execute and deliver to Cerulean within [**] days after the receipt of a request therefor, such further designations, powers of attorney or other instruments as Cerulean will reasonably deem necessary for the purposes described in this Section 7.4.

7.5 Claimed Infringement.

(h) Non-Infringement by Third Party. To Calando’s Knowledge, no person (including any current or former employee or consultant of Calando) is infringing, violating or misappropriating (i) any of the Assigned IP or (ii) any of the Licensed IP in the Field.

Further, if Cerulean determines, in its sole discretion, that such a license would be consistent with Cerulean’s business purpose and plans, Cerulean agrees to discuss in good faith with Calando the possibility of granting to Calando a license to such Know-How, and the intellectual property rights encompassed therein, which is developed, conceived or reduced to practice by Cerulean after the Effective Date and which pertains to the Cyclodextrin System or Licensed Products, in order for Calando to research, develop, make, have made, use, market, offer to sell, distribute, sell and import Licensed Products in the Field.

12.2 Remedy for Breach. If a Party (the “Breaching Party”) is in breach of a material provision of this Agreement (including any breach of a material representation or warranty made in this Agreement), then the other Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) may deliver notice of such breach to the Breaching Party.

Ladies/Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the License Agreement between California Institute of Technology (“Caltech”) and Calando Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (formerly known as Insert Therapeutics, Inc.) (“Calando”) dated May 22, 2000, as amended on December 10, 2001, January 13, 2003 and June 19, 2009 (the “License Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the License Agreement.

Reference is also made to Calando’s anticipated transaction with Cerulean Pharma Inc. (“Cerulean”) pursuant to which Calando will grant Cerulean, under one or more agreements (the “Transaction Agreements”), a combination of an assignment of, and a world-wide license, including the right to grant further sublicenses, to, Calando’s interest in all patent rights and know-how pertaining to its cyclodextrin-based polymer drug delivery systems (the “Cyclodextrin System”) in order for Cerulean to (a) conduct research and development on the Cyclodextrin System, including making improvements thereto, for the purpose of making, using and selling Products for the Therapeutic Field and (b) research, develop, make, have made, use, market, offer to sell, distribute, sell and import Products for the Therapeutic Field.

Calando’s interest will include Calando’s interest in the Caltech Technology. Products will be defined to include pharmaceutical compositions containing therapeutic agents conjugated or complexed to the Cyclodextrin System and will specifically include Calando’s clinical asset IT-101. Products will exclude pharmaceutical compositions containing cytolysin, tubulysin, certain second generation epothilones and nucleic acids as the therapeutic agents. Therapeutic Field will mean the use of Products to treat and/or prevent disease in humans.

For purposes of clarity, a current list of the Licensed Patent Rights, which are solely owned by Caltech, is attached hereto as Exhibit A, a current list of the Improvements, which are jointly owned by Caltech and Calando, is attached hereto as Exhibit B, and a current list of the patent rights solely owned by Calando is attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Calando Patents”). Calando’s exclusive interest in the Licensed Patent Rights and Improvements and Calando’s non-exclusive interest in the Technology will be (a) exclusively sublicensed to Cerulean in order

E-1

to research and develop the Cyclodextrin System, and make improvements thereto, for the purpose of making, using and selling Products for the Therapeutic Field and (b) exclusively sublicensed to Cerulean for purposes of researching, developing, making, having made, using, marketing, offering to sell, distributing, selling and importing Products for the Therapeutic Field. The Calando Patents will be assigned to Cerulean.

As a result of discussions among Calando, Caltech and Cerulean regarding the License Agreement, Calando, Caltech and Cerulean have agreed to certain modifications and/or clarifications pertaining to the License Agreement, as follows:

1. In the event of the bankruptcy or other insolvency of Calando, a termination, for any reason, of the License Agreement, or a conversion to non-exclusivity of the licenses granted to Calando in the License Agreement, Caltech agrees to directly honor the exclusive license, including the right to grant further sublicenses, granted by Calando to Cerulean to practice the Licensed Patents Rights and the Improvements and to use the Technology in connection with Products in the Therapeutic Field, with the following additional understandings of Calando, Caltech and Cerulean.

In the event of the bankruptcy or other insolvency of Calando, or the termination, for any reason, of the License Agreement, to the extent not paid by Calando, Cerulean shall be obligated to pay to Caltech (a) the annual minimum royalties due Caltech pursuant to Section 3.7 of the License Agreement, (b) the patent costs due Caltech pursuant to Sections 10.1 and 10.4 of the License Agreement and (c) the amounts that Calando would have been obligated to pay to Caltech under the terms of Section 3.13 of the License Agreement in respect of the net sales of Products by Cerulean; provided that if there are one or more other licensees of the Caltech Technology, the annual minimum royalties and patent costs due Caltech shall be shared equally among the licensees of the Caltech Technology. To the extent that Cerulean makes any such payments to Caltech, Cerulean shall be entitled to deduct the full amount of such payments from any milestones or royalties due Calando under the Transaction Agreements.

2. For purposes of clarity, during the term of the License Agreement and/or subsequent to a termination, for any reason, of the License Agreement, the provisions of Section 10.4 of the License Agreement shall apply with respect to the prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patent Rights and Improvements by Caltech with the following additional understandings of Calando, Caltech and Cerulean.

Unless and until there occurs an event of bankruptcy or other insolvency involving Calando or a termination, for any reason, of the License Agreement, Calando shall remain liable to Caltech for the patent costs incurred by Caltech in connection with the prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patent Rights and Improvements. In the event of the bankruptcy or other insolvency of Calando and/or a termination, for any reason, of the License Agreement, to the extent not paid by Calando, the terms of Paragraph 1 shall apply with respect to the patent costs incurred by Caltech in connection with the prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patent Rights and Improvements.

In the event of the bankruptcy or other insolvency of Calando and/or a termination, for any reason, of the License Agreement, Caltech agrees that Cerulean shall have the direct right to

E-2

review and comment upon and approve any and all patent filings and all actions undertaken in the prosecution and maintenance of the Licensed Patent Rights and Improvements. Further, in the event that Caltech determines not to prepare, file, prosecute or maintain any patent application or patent within the Licensed Patent Rights or Improvements, Caltech shall promptly notify Cerulean, and thereupon, Cerulean shall have the right, at its own expense, to prepare, file, prosecute and maintain any such patent application or patent within the Licensed Patent Rights or Improvements.

3. Whether or not the License Agreement is in effect, the following terms and conditions will apply with respect to the enforcement of the Licensed Patent Rights and Improvements in connection with Products in the Therapeutic Field:

(a) Cerulean, acting directly or through an affiliate or sublicensee, shall have, for a period of [**] days from the notice of an infringement of the Licensed Patent Rights and/or Improvements, the first right to institute an action or suit against the infringing third party in accordance with the following:

(i)

The action or suit shall be brought in the name of Cerulean and Cerulean shall bear the entire cost of such action or suit. Cerulean shall promptly provide Caltech and/or Calando with copies of all litigation pleadings and other documents submitted to the court.

(ii)

With respect to any consideration received by Cerulean in connection with such action or suit, Cerulean shall first be entitled to deduct its litigation expenses and legal fees (including any incurred as part of an indemnification of Caltech and/or Calando). Thereafter, (x) to the extent that the remaining recovery represents lost profits, such remaining recovery shall be retained by Cerulean, with Calando entitled to receive an amount equal to the royalties that would have been due Calando on sales of Products lost by Cerulean as a result of the infringement and (y) to the extent that the remaining recovery represents punitive or other damages, Cerulean shall be entitled to [**]% of such remaining recovery and Calando shall be entitled to [**]% of such remaining recovery. In the event that the License Agreement is not in effect, Cerulean will be obligated to pay to Caltech the amounts that Calando would have been obligated to pay to Caltech under the terms of the License Agreement had the action been instituted by Calando.

(iii)

If it shall be necessary for Cerulean to join Caltech and/or Calando as a party to an action or suit because Caltech and/or Calando constitutes a legally indispensable party, Cerulean shall have the right to so join Caltech and/or Calando, provided that Cerulean indemnifies Caltech and/or Calando for all outside costs and expenses thereby incurred by Caltech and/or Calando.

(b) If within [**] days after notification of an infringement of the Licensed Patent Rights or Improvements pursuant to clause (a) above, Cerulean has not been successful in persuading the alleged infringer to desist and is not diligently pursuing an infringement action or suit, or has notified Caltech and Calando of its intent not to bring action or suit against the alleged infringer, then Caltech and/or Calando may institute an action or suit against such third party, in accordance with their rights of priority under Sections 6.1 and 6.2 of the License Agreement, subject to the following:

(i)

Prior to taking any action, Caltech and Calando shall confer with Cerulean and give due consideration to Cerulean’s reasons for not pursuing such alleged infringer.

E-3

(ii)

The action or suit shall be brought in the name of Caltech and/or Calando and Caltech and/or Calando shall bear the entire cost of such action or suit. Caltech and/or Calando shall promptly provide Cerulean with copies of all litigation pleadings and other documents submitted to the court.

(iii)

With respect to any consideration received by Caltech and/or Calando in connection with such action or suit, Caltech and/or Calando shall first be entitled to deduct its litigation expenses and legal fees (including any incurred as part of an indemnification of Cerulean). In the case where the Product has not been licensed by Cerulean to a third party, [**]% of the remaining recovery shall go the party bringing the action and [**]% of the remaining recovery shall go to Cerulean. In the case where the Product has been licensed by Cerulean to a third party, the remaining recovery shall be split equally between the party bringing the action or suit and Cerulean and/or the licensee of Cerulean.

(iv)

If it shall be necessary for Caltech and/or Calando to join Cerulean as a party to an action or suit because Cerulean constitutes a legally indispensable party, Caltech and/or Calando shall have the right to so join Cerulean, provided that Caltech and/or Calando indemnifies Cerulean for all outside costs and expenses thereby incurred by Cerulean.

(c) In the event that a declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity, unenforceability or non-infringement of the Licensed Patent Rights or Improvements is brought against Cerulean, Caltech and/or Calando, Cerulean, at its option, shall have the right, within [**] days of the commencement of such action, to take over the sole defense of the action at its own expense and with the provisions of clause (a)(iii) above applying. If Cerulean does not exercise this right, Caltech and/or Calando may take over the defense of the action, in accordance with their rights of priority under Section 6.3 of the License Agreement, at Caltech’s or Calando’s sole expense.

(d) If any action or suit is brought involving the enforcement or defense of the Licensed Patent Rights or Improvements, the other parties agree, at the request and expense of the party initiating such action or suit, to reasonably cooperate and to make available relevant records, papers, information, samples, specimens and the like.

(e) No settlement or consent judgment or other voluntary final disposition of an enforcement or defense action or suit initiated by a party may be entered into without the consent of the other parties, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, provided that Cerulean shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to determine whether to grant and/or on what basis to grant a sublicense of the Licensed Patent Rights or Improvements to an infringer of the Licensed Patent Rights or Improvements for future use of the Licensed Patent Rights or Improvements in connection with Products in the Therapeutic Field.

E-4

4. Each party shall have the right to directly enforce the terms and conditions of this letter agreement against either or both of the other parties, as appropriate. Further, the terms and conditions of this letter agreement shall be assignable by Cerulean, and shall apply, to a person who acquires all or substantially all of the business of Cerulean by merger, sale of assets or otherwise.

Arrowhead Subsidiary Calando Pharmaceuticals Enters into

License Agreement with Cerulean Pharma Inc.

- Calando To License Cyclosert™ Platform and Associated IT-101 Drug Candidate for Upfront Payment of $2.4 Million, Milestone Payments and Royalties from Product Sales; Agreement Creates Substantial Potential Revenue Stream -

PASADENA, Calif. – June 23, 2009 – Arrowhead Research Corporation (NASDAQ: ARWR) today announced that its Calando Pharmaceuticals, Inc. subsidiary has entered into a worldwide license agreement with Cerulean Pharma Inc. for Calando’s drug delivery platform, Cyclosert™, and associated clinical xxxxx xxxx-xxxxxx xxxx, XX-000. The agreement is part of Calando’s strategy to minimize its burn rate while retaining upside exposure via partnerships with high quality companies that will continue the development of Calando’s platforms and drug candidates. Importantly, this agreement does not include rights to develop and commercialize RNAi products or the clinical-stage RNAi candidate, CALAA-01, both of which Calando intends to partner separately.

Under the terms of the agreement, Cerulean made an upfront payment of $2.4 million to Calando and will make development milestone payments of up to $2.75 million if IT-101 progresses through clinical trials and receives marketing approval. If approved, Calando is also entitled to receive up to an additional $30 million in sales milestone payments, plus royalties on net sales.

As a platform delivery system, Cyclosert™ may be utilized to generate a very large number of new drugs in addition to IT-101, and under the agreement with Cerulean, Calando will participate in any potential upside related to the development of other drugs using the delivery platform. For each new drug candidate that Cerulean is able to bring to market utilizing the Cyclosert™ system, Calando will be entitled to $3 million in development milestone payments.

Once these products reach the market, Calando could potentially receive an additional $15 million in sales milestone payments, plus royalties on net sales.

Commenting on the partnership, Xx. Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Arrowhead’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We strongly believe in IT-101 and the Cyclosert™ platform, and this

I-2

transaction goes a long way toward achieving our dual strategy of decreasing costs while working to monetize these potentially powerful assets. We believe that Cerulean will be a terrific partner given its focus on nanoparticle-based drugs, strong financial position, and high quality management team. We look forward to our mutual future success.”

“Calando’s cyclodextrin co-polymer based technology is founded on elegant chemistry, and the integration of this platform into our program fully leverages the expertise and capabilities that we have built,” said Xx. Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cerulean. “We look forward to applying the technology against a range of product opportunities, as well as further advancing IT-101 in the clinic.”

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995:

This news release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based

I-3

upon our current expectations and speak only as of the date hereof. Our actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors and uncertainties, including the recent economic slowdown, capital resources available to us, the future success of our scientific studies, our ability to successfully develop products, rapid technological change in our markets, changes in demand for our future products, legislative, regulatory and competitive developments and general economic conditions. For example, there can be no assurance that IT-101 will successfully advance through clinical trials or that Arrowhead will receive any of the future milestone or royalty payments that are described in this release. Similarly, there can be no assurance that other drugs will be successfully developed using the Cyclosert™ platform. It is possible that Arrowhead could receive no additional payments or revenues from this arrangement beyond the upfront payment described above. Our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other SEC filings discuss some of the important risk factors that may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, including the risks relating to the development of new drug candidates. We disclaim any intent to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.

Additionally, Cerulean has acquired worldwide exclusive rights to develop and commercialize Calando’s clinical stage anti-cancer product candidate, IT-101, a camptothecin nanoparticle with a highly differentiated and promising pre-clinical foundation that has just successfully progressed through a Phase 1 clinical trial.

Calando’s cyclodextrin co-polymer based drug delivery technology was originally developed by world-renowned chemical engineering scientist Professor Xxxx Xxxxx and exclusively licensed from California Institute of Technology. This technology incorporates biologically compatible components and enables formulation of self-assembled nanoparticles for pharmaceutical product development. Highly complementary to Cerulean’s platform technologies, the cyclodextrin copolymer based technology adds to the breadth and scope of Cerulean’s efforts. With IT-101 as the first-in-human product candidate of the technology, promising results from the completed Phase 1 study have provided strong proof-of-principle that this technology can provide a dramatic improvement in drug pharmacokinetics and safety.

“We believe strongly in IT-101 and the cyclodextrin co-polymer based delivery platform,” stated Arrowhead’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Xx. Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx. “Cerulean is well-positioned to further develop these assets given its focus on nanoparticle-based drugs, strong financial position, and high quality management team. We look forward to our mutual future success.”

(a)

Beneficiary’s most senior internal legal counsel or outside counsel determines in their professional and reasonable judgment that the Deposit Materials are reasonably necessary for (i) regulatory or governmental purposes, (ii) for litigation purposes, (iii) for the maintenance, prosecution or defense of intellectual property, or (iv) to resolve scientific or technical questions or to make corrections, in either case arising from the illegibility, inaccessibility or other errors in the digital copies of laboratory notebooks Beneficiary received directly from Depositor pursuant to the Calando/Cerulean Contracts; or

(b)

the liquidation, termination of existence, dissolution, insolvency or business failure of the Depositor, or the appointment of a receiver or custodian for the Depositor or any part of its property; or

(c)

the institution by or against the Depositor of any proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency or other similar law affecting the rights of creditors generally or the making by the Depositor of a composition or an assignment or trust mortgage for the benefit of creditor; or

(d)

Beneficiary in its sole discretion, elects to receive the content of the FA Deposit Account established herein, consisting of the following Notebooks: Nos. [**] (collectively the “Full Access Notebooks”) as such Full Access Notebooks are further described in Exhibit D of this Agreement - Laboratory Notebook Master Inventory List, for any purpose related to the Cyclodextrin System or any Licensed Product (the terms “Cyclodextrin System” and “Licensed Product” shall be defined as set forth in the Calando/Cerulean Contracts).

Release Request. Beneficiary may submit a request to Escrow Associates to release the Deposit Material covered under this Agreement, which in the case of a release pursuant to Section 1(a) of this Exhibit C, may include a partial release of the Deposit Materials consisting of the entire contents of one or more Deposit Accounts hereto (i.e., individual Deposit Accounts FA, PA and/or RA, but not individual notebooks). Escrow Associates will send a written notice of this Beneficiary request within [**] business days to the Depositor’s Authorized Person(s).

J-23

Contrary Instructions. From the date Escrow Associates mails written notice of the Beneficiary request to release Deposit Material covered under this Agreement, Depositor Authorized Person(s) shall have [**] business days to deliver to Escrow Associates contrary instructions. Contrary instructions shall mean the written representation by Depositor that a Release Condition has not occurred (“Contrary Instructions”).

Termination of Agreement Upon Release. This Agreement will terminate upon the release of Deposit Material held by Escrow Associates; provided that, in the case of Section 1(a) of this Exhibit C, in the event only a portion of the Deposit Material is released, this Agreement shall remain in full force in effect. Under such circumstances Beneficiary shall be completely responsible for any and all monies due Escrow Associates; and Escrow Associates shall have no recourse to seek any outstanding monies from Depositor.

Right to Use Following Release. Beneficiary has the right under this Agreement to use (a) the Full Access Notebooks Deposit Materials for any purpose related to the Cyclodextrin System or any Licensed Product and (b) all other Deposit Material solely (i) for regulatory or governmental purposes, (ii) for litigation purposes, (iii) for the maintenance, prosecution or defense of intellectual property or (iv) to resolve scientific or technical questions or to make corrections, in either case arising from the illegibility, inaccessibility or other errors in the digital copies of laboratory notebooks Beneficiary received directly from Depositor pursuant to the Calando/Cerulean Contracts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Beneficiary shall not have access to the Deposit Material unless there is a release of the Deposit Materials in accordance with this Agreement.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THIS FORM
Any acknowledgment completed in California must contain verbiage exactly as appears above in the notary section or a separate acknowledgment form must be properly completed and attached to that document. The only exception is if a document is to be recorded outside of California. In such instances, any alternative acknowledgment verbiage as may be printed on such a document so long as the verbiage does not require the notary to do something that is illegal for a notary in California (i.e. certifying the authorized capacity of the signer). Please check the document carefully for proper notarial wording and attach this form if required.
State and County information must be the State and County where the document signer(s) personally appeared before the notary public for acknowledgment.
Date of notarization must be the date that the signer(s) personally appeared which must also be the same date the acknowledgment is completed.
The notary public must print his or her name as it appears within his or her commission followed by a comma and then your title (notary public).
Print the name(s) of document signer(s) who personally appear at the time of notarization.
Indicate the correct singular or plural forms by crossing off incorrect forms (i.e. he/she/they/is/are) or circling the correct forms. Failure to correctly indicate this information may lead to rejection of document recording.
The notary seal impression must be clear and photographically reproducible. Impression must not cover text or lines. If seal impression smudges, re-seal if a sufficient area permits, otherwise complete a different acknowledgment form.
Signature of the notary public must match the signature on file with the office of the county clerk.
Additional information is not required but could help to ensure this acknowledgment is not misused or attached to a different document.
Indicate title or type of attached document number of pages and date.
Indicate the capacity claimed by the signer. If the claimed capacity is a corporate officer, indicate the title (i.e. CEO. CFO. Secretary).
Securely attach this document to the signed document
