Agreement between the parties dated July 21, 1995 (the "Agreement").

Inventions and such Subject Technology shall reside in the inventor
and other employees of LICENSOR. LICENSOR shall furnish LICENSEE
with copies of any proposed publication or presentation at least 45
days in advance of the submission of such proposed publication or
presentation to a journal, editor or other third party in order to
determine whether or not it contains patentable subject matter and
for filing a patent application thereon in the event it does contain
such information. LICENSEE may request, and LICENSOR shall agree to,
a delay of such proposed publication for an additional period, not
to exceed 30 days, in order to protect the potential patentability
of any invention described therein; provided further that LICENSOR
shall not unreasonably withhold permission for an additional delay
of 30 more days to allow time for patent filing. Subject to the
foregoing, LICENSEE shall also have the right to publish and/or
co-author any publication regarding the application of Subject
Technology in accordance with the customary academic standards."
