Ladies and Gentlemen:

IMMTECH PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) proposes, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein and in the Purchase Agreements in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Purchase Agreements”) entered into with the Investors identified therein (each an “Investor” and, collectively, the “Investors”), to issue and sell its common stock, $0.01 par value per share, (the “Common Stock”) up to an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock, (the “Shares”). The Company hereby sets forth its agreement (this “Agreement”) with Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Incorporated (“FBW”) acting as the placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) for this proposed registered direct offering. The Shares are more fully described in the Registration Statement (as hereinafter defined).

1. Agreement to Act as Placement Agent; Delivery and Payment. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein contained, and subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement:

(a) The Placement Agent agrees to act as the Company’s exclusive placement agent to solicit offers for the purchase of all or part of the Shares from the Company in connection with the proposed issuance and sale, on a commercially reasonable efforts basis, by the Company of the Shares to the Investors (the “Offering”). Upon the occurrence of the Closing (as hereinafter defined), the Company shall pay to the Placement Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Placement Agent an amount equal to six percent (6.0%) of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Shares on such Closing Date (as hereinafter defined). The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Placement Agent’s engagement hereunder is not an agreement by the Placement Agent or any of its affiliates to underwrite or purchase any securities or otherwise provide any financing. Under no circumstances will the Placement Agent be obligated to purchase any Shares for its own account and, in soliciting purchases of Shares, the Placement Agent shall act solely as the Company’s agent and not as principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the Placement Agent (or its affiliates) may, solely at its discretion and without any obligation to do so, purchase Shares as principal. The Placement Agent shall have no authority to bind the Company.

(b) Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of, the Shares shall be made at a closing (the “Closing”) at, Paul, Hastings, Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx LLP, the offices of counsel for the Company, located at Park Avenue Tower, 00 X. 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 at 9:00 a.m., EST, on the third or fourth business day (as permitted under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act) after the determination of the public offering price of the Shares (such time and date of payment and delivery being herein called the “Closing Date”). All such actions taken at the Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously.

(c) On the Closing Date, the Placement Agent shall cause each Investor to wire directly to the Company an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price for the number of Shares such Investor has agreed to purchase. Once the Company has received the aggregate purchase price for all of the Shares, it shall deliver, or cause the transfer agent for the Shares to deliver, to each Investor the number of Shares set forth on the signature page to such Investor’s Purchase Agreement, which delivery shall be made, with respect to an Investor, in accordance with the procedures set forth in such Investor’s executed Purchase Agreement.

(d) The purchases of the Shares by each of the Investors shall be evidenced by the execution of a Purchase Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(e) Prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which this Agreement is terminated and (ii) the Closing Date, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, solicit or accept offers to purchase shares of its Common Stock or other equity or equity-linked securities of the Company (other than pursuant to the exercise of options or warrants to purchase shares the Common Stock that are outstanding at the date hereof) otherwise than through the Placement Agent.

(c) Notice and Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure; and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that any indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying party in writing, (ii) such indemnified party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be

one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for such indemnified party to employ separate counsel or (iii) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action in accordance with the terms hereof and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in which case, if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties, which firm shall be designated in writing by the Placement Agent, if the indemnified parties under this Section 8 consist of any Placement Agent Indemnified Party, or by the Company if the indemnified parties under this Section 8 consist of any Company Indemnified Parties. Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Sections 7(a) and 7(b) shall use all reasonable efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or claim. Subject to the provisions of Section 8(d) below, no indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in connection with any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action (other than a judgment entered with the consent of such indemnified party), the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(d) Reimbursement for Fees and Expenses of Counsel. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested that an indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by this Section 8 effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the request for reimbursement, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

(e) Contribution; Limitation on Liability. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bears to the total compensation received by the Placement Agent with respect to the Shares purchased under this Agreement. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Placement Agent on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission; provided that the parties hereto agree that the written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent for use in the Prospectus, or in any

amendment or supplement thereto, consists solely of the Placement Agent’s Information. The Company and the Placement Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 8(e) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 8(e) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 8(e), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(e), the Placement Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the total compensation received by the Placement Agent in accordance with Section 1(e) less the amount of any damages which the Placement Agent has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

9. Representations and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties, and agreements of the Company herein or in certificates delivered pursuant hereto, and the agreements of the Placement Agent and the Company contained in Section 8 hereof, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Placement Agent or any controlling person thereof, or the Company or any of its officers, directors, or controlling persons and shall survive delivery of, and payment for, the Shares.

10. Termination.

(a) The obligations of the Placement Agent hereunder and of the Investors under the Purchase Agreements may be terminated by the Placement Agent, in its absolute discretion by notice given to the Company prior to delivery (including electronic delivery) of and payment for the Shares if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Sections 7(b) and 7(n) have occurred.

(b) If the sale of the Shares provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Placement Agent set forth in Section 7 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10(a) hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by the Placement Agent, the Company shall not be under any obligation or liability under this Agreement (except to the extent provided in Section 6 and 8 hereof) and the Placement Agent shall be under no obligation or liability to the Company (except to the extent provided in Section 8 hereof).

11. Notices. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and:

(a) if to the Placement Agent, shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to Xxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Incorporated, Attn: Xxxxx X.

12. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the Placement Agent, the Company, and their respective successors and assigns and the controlling persons, officers and directors referred to in Section 8. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give to any other person, firm or corporation, other than the persons, firms or corporations mentioned in the preceding sentence, any legal or equitable remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement, or any provision herein contained. The term “successors and assigns” as herein used shall not include any Investor merely because such Investor purchases Shares.

13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof

14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and, if executed in more than one counterpart, the executed counterparts shall each be deemed to be an original and all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

15. General Provisions.

Specifically, the agreement between the Company and FBW regarding an ongoing engagement dated December 14, 2006, continues to remain in full force and effect. In this Agreement, the masculine, feminine and neuter genders and the singular and the plural include one another.

The undersigned is aware that the Company proposes to carry out a registered direct offering of its Common Stock (the “Offering”) for which you will act as placement agent (the “Placement Agent”). The undersigned recognizes that the Offering will be of benefit to the undersigned and will benefit the Company by, among other things, raising additional capital for its operations. The undersigned acknowledges that you are relying on the representations and agreements of the undersigned contained in this letter in carrying out the Offering.

In consideration of the foregoing, the undersigned hereby agrees that the undersigned will not (and will cause any spouse or minor child or immediate family member of the spouse or the undersigned living in the undersigned’s household not to), without your prior written consent (which consent may be withheld in the Placement Agent’s sole discretion), directly or indirectly, sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell (including without limitation any short sale), pledge, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock, options or warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock, or securities exchangeable or exercisable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock currently or hereafter owned either of record or beneficially (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) by the undersigned (or such spouse or minor child or family member), or publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing, for a period commencing on the date hereof and continuing through the ninety (90) days following the closing of the Offering (the “Lock-Up Period”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Lock-Up Letter Agreement shall terminate and the undersigned shall be released from its obligations hereunder if: (i) the Company notifies you in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, (ii) the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the Offering is withdrawn, (iii) for any reason the Placement Agency Agreement between the Company and the Placement Agent (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) shall be terminated prior to the Closing Date (as defined in the Placement Agency Agreement) or (iv) a final prospectus relating to the Offering has not been printed by April 15, 2007.

The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock held by the undersigned except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.
