Dear Sirs:

Re: Offering of Shares

Xxxxx Capital Limited (the “Agent”), understands that SyntheMed, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a Delaware corporation, proposes to issue to investors secured by the Agent, up to 15,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Corporation’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”). The Shares shall be issued and sold at a price of $0.40 per Share or such other price as may be agreed by the Agent and the Corporation (in either case the “Issue Price”). The Shares shall be sold pursuant to a subscription agreement, as may be supplemented upon mutual agreement of the Corporation and the Agent the form of which is attached hereto as Appendix I (the “Subscription Agreement”). The offering of the Shares (the “Offering”) will be consummated in one or more closings, the final closing to occur on or about April 30, 2006, or such other date mutually agreed to by the Corporation and the Agent (the date of each closing being referred to herein as a “Closing Date”). There is no minimum number of Shares being offered in the Offering.

1.	Appointment

The Corporation hereby appoints the Agent as its non-exclusive agent and the Agent accepts the appointment and agrees to act on a “best efforts” basis as a non-exclusive agent of the Corporation to secure investors for the issuance of the Shares by way of private placement to institutional and other sophisticated investors or other eligible investors subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations, warranties and covenants of the Corporation set out in this Agreement.

The Agent shall be entitled to retain sub-agents selected by it to participate in the soliciting of offers to purchase the Shares, including for solicitation of eligible investors in Canada and the United States, provided that the Agent receives from each such sub-agent its agreement to be bound by the obligations of the Agent hereunder prior to any such appointment. The fees payable to such sub-agents shall be the responsibility and for the account of the Agent.

2.	Sales Restrictions

The Agent represents and agrees that it will comply with the restrictions on offers and sales of the Shares set forth in Schedule “A” hereto, as well as the other provisions thereof, all of which are hereby incorporated by reference herein and form a part hereof.

3.	Commission and Broker Warrant

In consideration of the services rendered and to be rendered by the Agent in acting as agent of the Corporation on a best efforts basis to secure investors for the issuance of the Shares, the Corporation agrees to pay to the Agent on the Closing Date a commission (the ”Commission”) equal to 10% of that portion of the gross proceeds of the Shares sold on the Closing Date to purchasers secured by the Agent, payable at the election of the Agent in either cash or Shares at the Issue Price (“Commission Shares”) or a combination of the two. The Agent acknowledges and agrees that no Commission shall be payable on any Shares issued to any of the investors listed on Schedule “B” attached hereto, as the same may subsequently be amended from time to time until the Closing Date (the “Excluded Parties”), or on the Commission Shares.

In further consideration of the services rendered and to be rendered by the Agent described above, the Corporation agrees to issue to the Agent for no additional consideration, a warrant (the “Broker Warrant”) to purchase an aggregate number of Shares equal to 10% of the aggregate number of Shares issued on the Closing Date to purchasers secured by the Agent, excluding Shares sold to Excluded Parties. The Broker Warrant shall have a term of four (4) years after the date of issue and shall be exercisable to acquire Shares at a price of $0.60 per Share. Any Commission payable or Broker Warrant issuable to the Agent may, at the direction of the Agent, be issued to any subagents retained by the Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

If for any reason the Offering does not close and within a three (3) year period after termination of the Offering the Corporation raises funding through one or more investors introduced to the Corporation for the first time by the Agent (“Agent Investors”), the Agent shall be entitled to the Commission and Broker Warrants in respect thereof as if the Offering had not been terminated and the gross proceeds of sale raised in such financing(s) had been raised under the Offering. The Agent will after the Closing Date promptly provide the Corporation with a list of Agent Investors.

4.	Closing

(a)	The issuance of the Shares shall be completed (the “Closing”) at the offices of the Corporation, or such other place or places as the Corporation and the Agent may agree, at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time) (the “Closing Time”) on the Closing Date.

(b)

On or prior to each Closing Date, the Agent shall provide to the Corporation a subscription agreement from each purchaser of Shares (a “Purchaser”) who is to acquire Shares on such Closing Date. Purchasers shall be required to complete and sign the form of Subscription Agreement attached hereto as Appendix I.

(c)

At the Closing Time on each Closing Date, upon satisfaction of the conditions contained herein, the Agent shall pay or cause payment to be made of the net purchase price of the Shares sold by the Agent in United States funds by wire transfer to such bank and account as may be designated by the Corporation, or in such other manner as may be agreed with the Corporation, such net purchase price to be equal to the aggregate Issue Price of the Shares sold by the Agent less the cash portion of the Commission (if the Agent elects to receive all or a part thereof in cash) and the amount in reimbursement of expenses referred to in section 8 hereof. Such payment and delivery shall be made against:

(i)

delivery by the Corporation to its transfer agent of instructions to issue certificates representing the Shares to be issued on the Closing Date registered in such name or names as are directed in the Subscription Agreements;

(ii)

delivery of the Commission and the Broker Warrants; and

(iii)

delivery to the Agent of copies of the certificates, opinions and other documents contemplated hereby.

7.	Confidentiality

The Agent agrees that it will not disclose the terms of the Offering or any information it may have acquired from the Corporation in the course of executing this Agency Agreement which the Corporation has identified as material non-public information, except to the extent (i) that such terms or other information becomes generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agency Agreement, (ii) that such information was properly within the Agent’s possession prior to being furnished by the Corporation, (iii) that such information becomes

available to the Agent on a non-confidential basis, such as through disclosure by third parties who have the right to disclose the information, and (iv) compelled by judicial process, provided that in the event of compulsion by judicial process the Agent will inform the Corporation promptly upon its receipt of notice of judicial process compelling such disclosure.

8.	Expenses

In further consideration of the agreement with the Agent herein contained, the Corporation covenants and agrees to reimburse the Agent, regardless of whether the Offering is completed, for the Agent’s reasonable fees and expenses including (without limitation) reasonable fees and expenses of Agent’s legal counsel, due diligence expenses, travel expenses and expenses incurred in connection with the holding of roadshows, investor meetings and presentations and printing and preparation of any offering documents and marketing materials (collectively the “Expenses”). The Corporation shall not be responsible for Agent’s legal expenses in excess of $35,000 (the “Cap”), it being understood that the Cap does not include legal expenses of the Agent’s counsel incurred after the Final Closing in connection with the anticipated resale registration of the securities issued in the Offering. The Corporation acknowledges and agrees that the Cap has been set based on the parties’ joint expectation of the amount of work involved to complete the Offering (based on, for example, an existing set of negotiated documents for an earlier financing for the Corporation in which the Agent participated), and the Corporation further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of unforeseen circumstances or delay in closing the Offering resulting in the greater than anticipated workload for the Agent’s legal counsel, such counsel’s reasonable fees and expenses in excess of the Cap shall also be paid by the Corporation. Expenses incurred up to each Closing Date shall be reimbursed, upon submission to the Corporation of invoices, receipts or similar proof of expenditure, at the Closing Time for such Closing Date and may be deducted by the Agent from the proceeds of sale of the Shares at such Closing. Expenses incurred after the Final Closing Date shall be reimbursed, upon submission to the Corporation of invoices, receipts or similar proof of expenditure, forthwith following the delivery to the Corporation of accounts in respect thereof.

9.	Indemnification

(a)

The Corporation agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and its respective directors, officers, shareholders, employees and agents from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses and liabilities (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of, in relation to or in connection with (i) any breach or non-compliance by the Corporation of or with any of its covenants or representations and warranties herein, or (ii) the services provided by the Agent hereunder, except to the extent that any Losses result from the Agent’s negligence, recklessness or bad faith in performing such services or from the making by the Agent of any unauthorized representations with respect to the Corporation. This indemnity shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(b)

In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any indemnified party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to the preceding paragraph, such party shall promptly notify the Corporation in writing, and the Corporation, upon the request of such party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to such party to represent such party and any others the Corporation may

designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding.

(c)

In any such proceeding, such indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such party unless (i) the Corporation and such party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include the Corporation and such party and representation of both parties by the same counsel is not appropriate as a result of differing interests between them. The Corporation shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment or determination in respect of which the indemnity referred to in this Section 9 is claimed, the Corporation agrees to indemnify such party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement, judgment or determination.
