ARTICLE 19 ADVANCES TO GENTA
SECTION 19.1 Advances.
(a) Aventis agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions
hereinafter set forth, to make advances (the "Advances") to Genta in a given
month on any Business Day following the determination of the Borrowing Base for
such month pursuant to Section 19.1(g), and from time to time from the Effective
Date to and including the Commitment Termination Date, each in an amount which
when added to the aggregate principal amount of all Advances
-3-
then outstanding and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon owed by Genta to
Aventis does not exceed the Maximum Advance. For purposes of clarification, no
Advance shall be made in a given month until the Borrowing Base for such month
has been determined in accordance with Section 19.1(g). Following the
determination of the Borrowing Base for such month, Genta may request Advances
on any Business Day for the remainder of such month, not to exceed the Maximum
Advance.
(b) Following the determination of the Borrowing Base for a given
month, Advances shall be made at such time as Genta shall request and subject to
the conditions herein set forth, Genta may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts
constituting the Commitment.
(c) Genta shall give Aventis prior written, telecopier or telephonic
(promptly confirmed in writing) notice of each request for an Advance hereunder
which notice shall be addressed to (*) at 400 Somerset Corporate, Mail Code SC4
000X, Xxxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000-0000, facsimile no.: (*), telephone no.: (*) with a
copy to (*) at 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, XX Xxx 0000, Xxxx Xxxx XX0 000X, Xxxxxxxxxxx,

irrevocable and to be effective, must be received by Aventis not later than 2:00
p.m., New York City time, on the fifth (5th) Business Day preceding the date on
which such Advance is to be made. Such notice shall specify (A) the amount of
the proposed Advance and (B) the date thereof (which shall be a Business Day).
(d) Each Advance requested by Genta shall be as specified on the
applicable Borrowing Certificate delivered to Aventis in connection with such
Advance and shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as
shall equal the available but unused Commitment).
(e) All outstanding Advances shall be payable in full on the
Maturity Date, subject to mandatory prepayment as provided in Section 19.3
hereof and acceleration as provided in Article 19.8 hereof.
(f) From and after the Commitment Termination Date all payments
otherwise due to Genta from Aventis, including without limitation, any milestone
payments due under Section 6.2, shall be retained by Aventis and applied against
any outstanding Advances until repaid in full unless Genta provides cash
collateral in an amount equal to the outstanding Advances or other substitute
collateral which Aventis determines at such time in its sole discretion to be
satisfactory.
(g) Within five (5) Business Days from the beginning of each
calendar month, Genta shall provide to Aventis the amount of accrued Development
Costs owing from Aventis to Genta, together with such documentation as
reasonably requested by Aventis in order to verify such Development Costs (the
"Development Cost Report"). Aventis acknowledges that such documentation may not
include all information customarily submitted by Genta with its quarterly
invoices. Within two (2) Business Days following receipt of the Development Cost
Report, Aventis shall determine the Borrowing Base in its reasonable good faith
discretion and provide Genta written notification thereof, together with a
report indicating how the Borrowing Base was calculated (the "Borrowing Base
Report"). Following the determination of the Borrowing Base
-4-
for any particular month, upon any changes to the applicable Over Advance Amount
as determined by Aventis in its reasonable good faith discretion, Aventis shall
provide to Genta a revised Borrowing Base Report reflecting a revised Borrowing
Base, and such revised Borrowing Base shall thereafter be the Borrowing Base
until subsequently revised as set forth herein or until a Borrowing Base is
determined for the next succeeding month. Based on receiving cooperation from
Genta, Aventis shall use good faith efforts to determine the Borrowing Base for
March 2003 by March 20, 2003.
SECTION 19.2 Interest.
(a) Interest shall accrue at a rate per annum (computed on the basis
of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal to (*) per
annum, compounded quarterly, and shall be due and payable in one lump sum on the
Maturity Date.

and including the date of such Advance to but excluding the date on which such
Advance is paid, such that interest on any Advance which is prepaid in part or
in full in accordance with Section 19.3 hereof shall cease to accrue as it
relates to such part of the Advance as was prepaid on the date on which such
prepayment is made; provided, however, that interest shall continue to accrue on
(i) any portion of the Advance that was not prepaid and (ii) the balance of any
accrued but unpaid interest related to such prepaid Advance.
(c) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the
interest rate on the Advances shall in no event be in excess of the maximum
permitted by Applicable Law.
SECTION 19.3 Prepayments.
(a) Genta shall have the right at its option at any time and from
time to time to prepay any Advance, in each case in whole or in part, upon at
least three (3) Business Days' prior written, telecopier or telephonic (promptly
confirmed in writing) notice to Aventis; provided, however, that, if Genta
elects to prepay any Advance in part, each such partial prepayment shall be in
the minimum amount of $1,000,000, or in the amount of the outstanding principal
amount of Advances made to Genta, together with all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, and the
principal amount thereof, shall be irrevocable and shall commit Genta to prepay
Advances in the amount and on the date stated therein.
(b) If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Advances
outstanding together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall exceed
the Maximum Advance, (i) Genta shall prepay Advances within 30 days to the
extent necessary to eliminate such excess and (ii) all payments otherwise due to
Genta from Aventis hereunder may, at Aventis' sole discretion, be retained by
Aventis and applied against the outstanding Advances until the aggregate
principal amount of the Advances outstanding , together with all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon are less than the Maximum Advance.
-5-
SECTION 19.4 Default Interest.
So long as an Advance Default shall have occurred and be continuing
(after, as well as before judgement), any amounts due hereunder, including
without limitation, any unpaid Advances or any accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, shall thereafter bear interest and be payable on demand at a rate equal
to the (*) per annum, compounded quarterly.
SECTION 19.5 Manner of Payments.
All payments by Genta hereunder shall be made without offset or
counterclaim in Dollars in Federal or other immediately available funds to such
account as Aventis may designate in writing, no later than 12:00 noon, New York
City time, on the date on which such payment shall be due. Any payment received
at such office after such time shall be deemed received on the following
Business Day. All payments on account of the Advances shall be applied first to
payment of all fees and expenses, including collection costs, due to Aventis
hereunder or under the Security Agreement, next toward payment of interest due
on the unpaid principal balance hereof, and the remainder, if any, to the
principal due hereunder.
