and not jointly, who have executed this Agreement and whose names are set forth

AMOUNT"), subject to the conditions specified herein; and
WHEREAS, the Purchasers desire to purchase, and the Company desires to
sell, the Notes (as defined below) on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual
promises, representations, warranties, and covenants hereinafter set forth and

Company may, at any time (i) following the date hereof and (ii) prior to the
Expiration Date (as defined below), request (a "DRAWDOWN NOTICE"), and the
Purchasers agree to make, loans to the Company in the aggregate amount specified

to each Purchaser as of the Closing as set forth below.
3.1 ORGANIZATION, GOOD STANDING AND QUALIFICATION. The Company is
a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has all requisite corporate power and
authority to own and operate its properties and assets, to execute and deliver
this Agreement, to issue the Notes (together, with this Agreement, the "LOAN
DOCUMENTS") and the equity securities issuable upon conversion of the Notes (the
"CONVERSION SECURITIES"), and to carry out and perform its obligations under the
terms of the Loan Documents and to carry on its business as presently conducted.
The Company is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good
standing as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions in which the nature of
its activities and of its properties (both owned and leased) makes such
qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which failure to do
so would not have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business.
2.
3.2 SUBSIDIARIES. The Company does not own or control any equity
security or other interest of any other corporation, limited partnership or
other business entity. The Company is not a participant in any joint venture,
partnership or similar arrangement. Since its inception, the Company has not
consolidated or merged with, acquired all or substantially all of the assets of,
or acquired the stock or any interest in any corporation, partnership,
association, or other business entity.

restricted stock purchase agreements and/or the exercise of outstanding options,
(ii) options to purchase two million eight hundred forty-nine thousand five
hundred fifty-four (2,849,554) shares of Common Stock have been granted and are

(C) Other than the shares reserved for issuance under the

certain Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement dated as of December 11,
2003 (the "INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT"), there are no outstanding options,
warrants, rights (including conversion or preemptive rights and rights of first
refusal), proxy or stockholder agreements, or agreements of any kind for the
purchase or acquisition from the Company of any of its securities. All such
preemptive rights have been properly waived or complied with respect to all
prior issuances of capital stock and with respect to the issuance of the Notes
and the Conversion Securities.
(D) All issued and outstanding shares of the Company's
Common Stock and Preferred Stock (i) have been duly authorized and validly
issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, and (ii) were issued in compliance
with all applicable state and federal laws concerning the issuance of
securities.
3.
(E) Each series of Preferred Stock is convertible into
Common Stock on a one-for-one basis as of the date hereof. When issued in
compliance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, the Notes and the
Conversion Securities will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and
will be free of any liens or encumbrances other than (i) liens and encumbrances
created by or imposed upon Purchasers and (ii) any right of first refusal set
forth in the Company's Bylaws; provided, however, that the Notes and the

(F) The Company has no obligation (contingent or other) to
purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any of its securities or any interest
therein or to pay any dividend or make any other distribution in respect
thereof. Except for the Investor Rights Agreement, the Amended and Restated
Co-Sale Agreement dated as of December 11, 2003 and the Amended and Restated
Voting Agreement dated as of December 11, 2003 (the "VOTING AGREEMENT"), to the
best of the Company's knowledge there are no voting trusts or agreements,
stockholders' agreements, buy-sell agreements, rights of first refusal,

subsidiary of the Company (whether or not the Company or any such subsidiaries
is a party thereto).

the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for
the authorization of the Loan Documents, the performance of all obligations of
the Company hereunder and thereunder at the Closing and the authorization, sale,
issuance and delivery of the Notes pursuant hereto. The Loan Documents, when
executed and delivered, will be valid and binding obligations of the Company
enforceable in accordance with their terms, except (a) as limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general
application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights, (b) general principles
of equity that restrict the availability of equitable remedies, and (c) to the
extent that the enforceability of the indemnification provisions in the Investor
Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable laws. The issuance of the Notes
and the subsequent conversion of the Notes into Conversion Securities are not
and will not be subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that
have not been properly waived or complied with.
3.5 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The Company has delivered to each
Purchaser its unaudited balance sheet as at September 30, 2004 (the "STATEMENT
DATE") and unaudited consolidated statement of income and cash flows for the
nine-month period ending on the Statement Date (collectively, the "FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS"). The Financial Statements, together with the notes thereto, present
fairly the financial condition and position of the Company as of the Statement
Date; provided, however, that the unaudited financial statements are subject to
normal recurring year-end audit adjustments (which are not expected to be
material either individually or in the aggregate), and do not contain all
footnotes required under generally accepted accounting principles. All
liabilities (whether asserted or unasserted, whether absolute or contingent,
whether accrued or unaccrued, whether liquidated or unliquidated, and whether
due or to become due) ("LIABILITIES") of the Company and other obligations of
the Company, whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise, whether direct
or indirect, and whether due or to become due, that existed at the Statement
Date have been disclosed in the balance sheet included in the Financial
Statements (the "BALANCE SHEET") to the extent such Liabilities and
4.
obligations were required, under generally accepted accounting principles, to be
so disclosed. The Company has not (a) made a general assignment for the benefit
of its creditors, (b) filed any voluntary petition in bankruptcy or suffered the
filing of any involuntary petition in bankruptcy by its creditors, (c) suffered
the appointment of a receiver to take possession of all or substantially all of
its assets or properties, (d) suffered the attachment or other judicial seizure
of all or substantially all of its assets or (e) admitted in writing its
inability to pay its debts as they come due. After giving effect to the
transactions contemplated hereby, the Company will have tangible and intangible
assets having a fair value in excess of the amount required to pay its probable
Liabilities on its existing debts as they become absolute and matured. To the
Company's knowledge, there are no Liabilities of the Company of any kind
whatsoever, and there is no existing condition, situation or set of
circumstances that could reasonably be expected to result in a Liability of the
Company, other than (a) Liabilities reflected in the Financial Statements, (b)
Liabilities that have arisen after the date of the Balance Sheet in the ordinary
course of business (none of which is a Liability for breach of contract, breach
of warranty, tort, infringement claim or lawsuit) and that, in the aggregate, do
not exceed $25,000, and (c) Liabilities that have arisen after the date of the
Balance Sheet in connection with the preparation, execution and negotiation of
the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
3.6 AGREEMENTS; ACTION.
(A) There are no agreements, understandings, instruments,
contracts, proposed transactions, judgments, orders, writs or decrees to which
the Company is a party or to its knowledge by which it is bound which may
involve (i) obligations (contingent or otherwise) of, or payments to, the
Company in excess of $50,000 (other than obligations of, or payments to, the
Company arising from purchase or sale agreements entered into in the ordinary
course of business), or (ii) the transfer or license of any patent, copyright,
trade secret or other proprietary right to or from the Company (other than
licenses arising from the purchase of "off the shelf" or other standard
products), (iii) indemnification by the Company with respect to infringements of
proprietary rights (other than indemnification obligations arising from purchase
or sale or license agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business),
or (iv) employment or labor matters (including, without limitation, any
severance, "change of control" or other similar payments, obligations or
matters).
(B) The Company has not (i) declared or paid any dividends,
or authorized or made any distribution upon or with respect to any class or
series of its capital stock, (ii) incurred or guaranteed any indebtedness for
money borrowed or any other liabilities (other than with respect to dividend
obligations, distributions, indebtedness and other obligations incurred in the
ordinary course of business or as disclosed in the Financial Statements)
individually in excess of $50,000 or, in the case of indebtedness and/or
liabilities individually less than $50,000, in excess of $200,000 in the
aggregate, (iii) made any loans or advances to any person, other than ordinary
advances for travel expenses, or (iv) sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of
any of its assets or rights, other than the sale of its inventory in the
ordinary course of business.
(C) The Company has delivered to the Purchasers or their
counsel copies of all contracts, agreements, instruments and transactions listed

("CONTRACTS") are valid, binding and in full force and effect in all material
respects and enforceable by the Company in accordance with their respective
terms in all material respects, 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. The Company
is not in material default under any of such Contracts. To the Company's
knowledge, no other party to any of the Contracts is in material default
thereunder.
(D) For the purposes of subsections (a) and (b) above, all
indebtedness, liabilities, agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts
and proposed transactions involving the same person or entity (including persons
or entities the Company has reason to believe are affiliated therewith) shall be
aggregated for the purpose of meeting the individual minimum dollar amounts of
such subsections.
3.7 OBLIGATIONS TO RELATED PARTIES. There are no obligations of
the Company to officers, directors, stockholders, or employees of the Company
other than (a) for payment of salary for services rendered, (b) reimbursement
for reasonable expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and (c) for other
standard employee benefits made generally available to all employees (including
stock option agreements outstanding under any stock option plan approved by the
Board of Directors of the Company).
3.8 CHANGES. Since the Statement Date, other than pursuant to the
Loan Documents, there has not been to the Company's knowledge:
(A) Any change in the assets, liabilities, financial
condition or operations of the Company from that reflected in the Financial
Statements, other than changes in the ordinary course of business, none of which

assets, liabilities, financial condition or operations of the Company;

(K) Any other event or condition of any character that,
either individually or cumulatively, has materially and adversely affected the
business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or operations of the Company;
or
(L) Any arrangement or commitment by the Company to do any
of the acts described in subsection (a) through (k) above.
3.9 TITLE TO PROPERTIES AND ASSETS; LIENS, ETC. The Company has
good and marketable title to its properties and assets, including the properties
and assets reflected in the most recent balance sheet included in the Financial
Statements, and good title to its leasehold estates, in each case subject to no
mortgage, pledge, lien, lease, encumbrance or charge, other than (a) those
resulting from taxes which have not yet become delinquent, (b) minor liens and
encumbrances which do not materially detract from the value of the property
subject thereto or materially impair the operations of the Company, and (c)
those that have otherwise arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company
is in compliance with all material terms of each lease to which it is a party or
is otherwise bound.
3.10 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
(A) To the best of its knowledge, the Company owns or
possesses sufficient legal rights to all patents, trademarks, service marks,
trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses, information and other
proprietary rights and processes necessary for its business as now conducted and
as presently proposed to be conducted, without any known infringement of the
rights of others. There are no outstanding options, licenses or agreements of
any kind relating to the foregoing proprietary rights, nor is the Company bound
by or a party to any options, licenses or agreements of any kind with respect to
the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets,
licenses, information and other proprietary rights and processes of any other
person or entity other than such licenses or agreements arising from the
purchase of "off the shelf" or standard products.
(B) The Company has not received any communications alleging
that the Company has violated or, by conducting its business as presently
proposed, would violate any of the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade
names, copyrights or trade secrets or other proprietary rights of any other
person or entity.
(C) The Company is not aware that any of its employees is
obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of
any nature) or other
7.

administrative agency, that would interfere with their duties to the Company or
that would conflict with the Company's business as proposed to be conducted.
Each employee, officer and consultant of the Company has executed a proprietary
information and inventions agreement in the form(s) as delivered to Purchasers.
No employee, officer or consultant of the Company has excluded works or
inventions made prior to his or her employment with the Company from his or her
assignment of inventions pursuant to such employee, officer or consultant's
proprietary information and inventions agreement and, to the Company's
knowledge, none of its present or former employees, officers or consultants are
in violation thereof.
(D) The Company is not subject to any "open source" or
"copyleft" obligations or otherwise required to make any public disclosure or
general availability of source code either used or developed by the Company.
3.11 COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER INSTRUMENTS. The Company is not in
violation or default of any term of its charter documents, each as amended, or
of any provision of any mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, instrument or
contract to which it is party or by which it is bound or of any judgment,
decree, order or writ other than any such violation that would not have a
material adverse effect on the Company. The execution, delivery, and performance
of and compliance with the Loan Documents, and the issuance of the Notes
pursuant hereto and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby, will not, with or without the passage of time or giving of notice,
result in any such material violation, or be in conflict with or constitute a
material default under any such term, or result in the creation of any mortgage,
pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or assets of the
Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of
any permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its
business or operations or any of its assets or properties.
3.12 LITIGATION. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
investigation pending or, to the Company's knowledge, currently threatened in
writing against the Company that questions the validity of the Loan Documents,
or the right of the Company to enter into any of such agreements, or to
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or which would
reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in
any material adverse change in the assets, condition, affairs or prospects of
the Company, financially or otherwise, or any change in the current equity
ownership of the Company, nor is the Company aware that there is any basis for
any of the foregoing. The Company is not a party or, to its knowledge, subject
to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any
court or government agency or instrumentality. There is no action, suit,
proceeding or investigation by the Company currently pending or which the
Company intends to initiate.
3.13 TAX RETURNS AND PAYMENTS. The Company has filed all tax
returns (federal, state and local) required to be filed by it. All taxes shown
to be due and payable on such returns, any assessments imposed, and to the
Company's knowledge all other taxes due and payable by the Company on or before
the Closing, have been paid or will be paid prior to the time they become
delinquent. The Company has no knowledge of any liability of any tax to be
imposed upon its properties or assets as of the date of this Agreement that is
not adequately provided for. The Company has not elected pursuant to the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as

amended (the "CODE") to be treated as a Subchapter "S" corporation or a
collapsible corporation pursuant to Section 341(f) or Section 1362(a) thereof.
The Company has withheld and paid all taxes required to have been withheld and
paid in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent
contractor, creditor, stockholder or other third party.
3.14 EMPLOYEES. The Company has no collective bargaining agreements
with any of its employees. There is no labor union organizing activity pending
or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened with respect to the Company. The
Company is not a party to or bound by any currently effective employment
contract, deferred compensation arrangement, bonus plan, incentive plan, profit
sharing plan, retirement agreement or other employee compensation plan or
agreement, nor has the Company ever maintained or contributed to any employee
benefit plan subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA"). The Company has never contributed to any "multi-employer plan" as
such term is defined in ERISA. To the Company's knowledge, no employee of the
Company, nor any consultant with whom the Company has contracted, is in
violation of any term of any employment contract, proprietary information
agreement or any other agreement relating to the right of any such individual to
be employed by, or to contract with, the Company; and to the Company's knowledge
the continued employment by the Company of its present employees, and the
performance of the Company's contracts with its independent contractors, will
not result in any such violation. The Company has not received any notice
alleging that any such violation has occurred. No employee of the Company has
been granted the right to continued employment by the Company or to any material
compensation following termination of employment with the Company. The Company
is not aware that any officer, key employee or group of employees intends to
terminate his, her or their employment with the Company, nor does the Company
have a present intention to terminate the employment of any officer, key
employee or group of employees. There are no actions pending, or to the
Company's knowledge, threatened, by any former or current employee concerning
such person's employment by the Company.
3.15 REGISTRATION RIGHTS AND VOTING RIGHTS. Except as required
pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Company is presently not under
any obligation, and has not granted any rights, to register (as defined in
Section 1.1 of the Investor Rights Agreement) any of the Company's presently
outstanding securities or any of its securities that may hereafter be issued. To
the Company's knowledge, except as provided for in the Voting Agreement, no
stockholder of the Company has entered into any agreement with respect to the
voting of equity securities of the Company.
3.16 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS; PERMITS. To the best of its knowledge,
the Company is not in violation of any applicable statute, rule, regulation,
order or restriction of any domestic or foreign government or any
instrumentality or agency thereof in respect of the conduct of its business or
the ownership of its properties which violation would materially and adversely
affect the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition, operations or
prospects of the Company. No governmental orders, permissions, consents,
approvals or authorizations are required to be obtained and no registrations or
declarations are required to be filed in connection with the execution and
delivery of the Loan Documents or the issuance of the Notes, except such as have
been duly and validly obtained or filed, or with respect to any filings that
must be made after the Closing, as will be filed in a timely manner. The Company
has all franchises, permits, licenses and any similar authority necessary for

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
$__________ ____________, 200_
ALAMEDA, CALIFORNIA
For value received PENINSULA PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Delaware corporation
("PAYOR" or the "COMPANY") promises to pay to __________ or its assigns
("HOLDER") the principal sum of $__________ with simple interest on the
outstanding principal amount at the rate of 8% per annum. Interest shall
commence with the date hereof and shall continue on the outstanding principal
until paid in full or converted. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a
year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed.
1. This note (the "NOTE") is issued as part of a series of similar
notes (collectively, the "NOTES") to be issued pursuant to the terms of that
certain Note Purchase Agreement (the "AGREEMENT") dated as of December 23, 2004
to the persons or entities listed on the Schedule of Purchasers thereof
(collectively, the "HOLDERS").
2. All payments of interest and principal under this Note shall be in
lawful money of the United States of America at such place as Holder may from
time to time designate in writing to the Company. All payments shall be applied
first to accrued interest, and thereafter to principal.
3. The entire outstanding principal balance of this Note plus all
accrued interest thereon, if any, shall be due and payable in full immediately
upon the earlier of the following (the "MATURITY DATE"): (i) five (5) years from
the date of this Note, or (ii) any Event of Default (as defined in Section 9
below).
4. At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the principal balance and
accrued and unpaid interest of this Note shall automatically convert in whole
without any further action by the Holders as follows:
(A) upon the closing of the first firmly underwritten primary
offering of the Company's common stock (the "COMMON STOCK") to the public (the
"IPO"), into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to eighty
percent (80%) of the price per share of the Common Stock issued in the IPO; or
(B) upon the closing of the Company's next round of private equity
financing with total proceeds to the Company of not less than $10,000,000 (the
"FINANCING"), into shares of the Company's preferred stock (the "PREFERRED
STOCK") issued in the Financing at a conversion price equal to eighty percent
(80%) of the price per share of the Preferred Stock issued in the Financing and
on the same terms and conditions extended to all other investors in the
Financing.
5. At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the principal balance and
accrued and unpaid interest of this Note may be converted, at the option of the
Holder, as follows:
(A) upon the closing of the Company's next round of private equity
financing with total proceeds to the Company of less than $10,000,000 (the
"ALTERNATE FINANCING"), into shares of Preferred Stock issued in the Alternate
Financing at a conversion price equal to eighty percent (80%) of the price per
share of the Preferred Stock issued in the Alternate Financing and on the same
terms and conditions extended to all other investors in the Alternate Financing;
or
(B) in the event of a corporate transaction that would trigger the
liquidation rights or asset transfer or acquisition rights in the Company's then
current Certificate of Incorporation (a "CORPORATE TRANSACTION"), into shares of
the Company's Series C Preferred Stock at a conversion price equal to $5.61 per
share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations,
combinations or the like); provided, however, if the Company enters into a
definitive agreement or a non-binding letter of intent on or before March 1,
2005 regarding a Corporate Transaction, this Note may not be converted and shall
be repaid immediately following the closing of such Corporate Transaction in an
amount equal to the sum of (a) one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the
principal amount of the Note and (b) all accrued and unpaid interest under the
Note.
6. No fractional shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock will be
issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional share to which
Holder would otherwise be entitled, Payor will pay to Holder in cash the amount
of the unconverted principal balance of this Note that would otherwise be
converted into such fractional share. Upon conversion of this Note pursuant to
Section 4 or Section 5 above, Holder shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed,
at the principal offices of Payor. At its expense, Payor will, as soon as
practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to Holder a certificate or
certificates for the number of shares to which Holder is entitled upon such
conversion, together with any other securities and property to which Holder is
entitled upon such conversion under the terms of this Note, including a check
payable to Holder for any cash amounts payable as described herein.
7. Unless this Note has been converted in accordance with the terms of
Section 4 or Section 5 above, or repaid in accordance with the terms of Section
5 above, the entire outstanding principal balance and all unpaid accrued
interest shall become fully due and payable on the Maturity Date.
8. Payor may not prepay this Note prior to the Maturity Date.
9. If there shall be any Event of Default hereunder, at the option and
upon the declaration of Holder of this Note and upon written notice to Payor
(which election and notice shall not be required in the case of an Event of
Default under Section 9(b) or 9(c)), this Note
shall accelerate and all principal and unpaid accrued interest shall become due
and payable. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute
an Event of Default:
A. Payor fails to pay timely any of the principal amount due
under this Note on the date the same becomes due and payable or any accrued
interest or other amounts due under this Note on the date the same becomes due
and payable;
B. Payor files any petition or action for relief under any
bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or moratorium law or any other law for
the relief of, or relating to, debtors, now or hereafter in effect, or makes any
assignment for the benefit of creditors or takes any corporate action in
furtherance of any of the foregoing; or
C. An involuntary petition is filed against Payor (unless such
petition is dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days) under any bankruptcy
statute now or hereafter in effect, or a custodian, receiver, trustee, assignee
for the benefit of creditors (or other similar official) is appointed to take
possession, custody or control of any property of Payor.
