WHEREAS:
A. The undersigned has agreed to acquire certain securities (the "Securities") of Immune Network Ltd. (the "Company"); and
B. The Company is relying on an exemption from the requirements to provide the undersigned with a prospectus and to sell the Securities through a person registered to sell securities under the Securities Act (British Columbia) (the "B.C. Act").
THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES that:
1. Pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 45-102, as adopted by the British Columbia Securities Commission effective November 30, 2001, a subsequent trade in the Securities will be a distribution subject to the prospectus and registration requirements of applicable Canadian securities legislation (including the B.C. Act) unless certain conditions are met, including the following:
(a) at least twelve months (the "Canadian Hold Period") shall have elapsed from the date on which the Securities were issued to the undersigned;
(b) during the currency of the Canadian Hold Period, any certificate representing the Securities or the Underlying Securities is imprinted with a legend (the "Canadian Legend") stating:
"Unless permitted under securities legislation, the holder of the securities shall not trade the securities before [insert the date that is twelve months and a day after the distribution date]."
(c) the trade is not a control distribution (as defined in Multilateral Instrument 45-102);
(d) no unusual effort is made to prepare the market or to create a demand for the securities that are the subject of the trade;
(e) no extraordinary commission or consideration is paid to a person or company in respect of the trade; and

2. By executing and delivering this Acknowledgement, the undersigned will be taken to have directed the Company not to include the Canadian Legend on any certificates representing the Securities to be issued to the undersigned.
3. As a consequence, the undersigned will not be able to rely on the resale provisions of Multilateral Instrument 45-102, and any subsequent trade in the Securities, as the case may be, during or after the Canadian Hold Period will be a distribution subject to the prospectus and registration requirements of Canadian securities legislation, to the extent that the trade is at that time subject to any such Canadian securities legislation.
