3. ARTICLE II - DISCOVERY PROGRAM; SELECTED QTS
(a) SECTION 2.4
(i) SECTION 2.4(d). Section 2.4(d) of the Agreement is hereby amended
by deleting such section in its entirety and substituting the following
in its place:
"(d) DISCOVERY PROGRAM LIMITATIONS. Notwithstanding any provisions of
this Agreement, including without limitation Section 2.3 hereof, the
Parties acknowledge that:
-5-
(i) Millennium is currently a party to an agreement with [**]
certain areas of [**] which contains restrictions relating to
Millennium's undertaking of genomic research activities designed
primarily to yield biological molecules likely to be useful as
targets or as pharmaceutical products in [**] based upon (A)
mechanisms of [**], (B) [**] mechanisms, and (C) [**] mechanisms
((i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the [**] Mechanism
Activities"). Millennium represents and warrants that the Research
Plan does not, as of the Effective Date, encompass [**] Mechanism
Activities in any manner that would be in violation of or
inconsistent with Millennium's obligations under the [**] [**].
The [**] was amended on December 22, 1998, to permit Millennium to
[**] to undertake genomic research activities, pursuant to this
Agreement, to yield biological molecules likely to be useful as
targets for Small Molecules for the treatment of [**], based upon
the [**] mechanisms and/or [**]mechanisms. Millennium agrees that,
[**], it shall provide written notice to Bayer (including a
description, [**] and such [**].
(ii) Millennium is currently a party to an agreement with [**] in
certain areas of [**] (the "[**]") which contains restrictions
relating to Millennium's undertaking of genomic research
activities designed primarily to yield biological molecules likely
to be useful as targets or as pharmaceutical products in [**] (as
defined therein to include [**] mechanisms associated with [**].
The [**] was amended on March 23, 1999, to permit Millennium to
[**] to undertake genomic research activities, pursuant to this
Agreement, to yield biological molecules likely to be useful as
targets for Small Molecules for the treatment of [**] (as defined
above in this clause (ii))."
(ii) SECTION 2.4(e). Section 2.4(e) of the Agreement is hereby amended
by deleting such section in its entirety and substituting the following
in its place:
"(e) NO NEW RESTRICTIONS. Millennium agrees that, from and after the
Execution Date, it shall not enter into any agreements, or transfer
Know-How or any other assets to any of its Affiliates, that would, in
either case, restrict or limit its or
-6-
Bayer's rights or ability to conduct the Discovery Program, as
contemplated in the Research Plan as of the Effective Date and as
amended from time to time (including the amendments to the Research
Plan made pursuant to Amendment No. 5), such as an agreement not to
engage in the types of target discovery activities contemplated by the
Research Plan."
(iii) SECTION 2.4(f). Section 2.4 of the Agreement is amended by adding
the following subsection at the end of such section:
"(f) OPTIMIZATION OF ACTIVITIES. Each of the Parties will empower its
Program Director to act as a general manager for such Party in the
Discovery Program. As such, the Program Directors will have the
authority to define approaches and activities that will optimize
achievement of the goals of the Discovery Program and the authority to
shift resources within the Discovery Program in order to [**] a [**]
of [**] (it being understood that it is not the intent to alter the
legal standard imposed on the Millennium in Article II of this
Agreement). At the first meeting of the Joint Steering Committee
following the Amendment Effective Date, the Program Directors will make
specific recommendations for the operational changes to the Discovery
Program that they believe will optimize [**] of the Discovery Program."
(b) SECTION 2.7. Section 2.7 of the Agreement is amended by adding the
following subsection at the end of such section:
"(e) DROPPED GENES. On a regular basis during the
course of the Discovery Program, the Program Directors shall review the
Discovery Program activities in order to identify any Dropped Genes,
provided that [**] in the Discovery Program (it being understood that a gene
that is temporarily on hold shall not be a Dropped Gene). Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 2.3 of this Agreement, Millennium shall have the
right to conduct internal research and development activities within the
CFAs (as well as collaborate thereon with academic, research or other
non-commercial institutions) with respect to Dropped Genes during the
Program Term. Subject to the limitation on the number of QTs which Bayer is
permitted to select from the Selectable QT Pool, Bayer shall have the right,
at any time during the Program Term, to designate Dropped Genes for
inclusion in the Discovery Program if Bayer can present New Scientific Data
relating to such Dropped Gene. If, pursuant to the preceding sentence, Bayer
designates a Dropped Gene for inclusion in the Discovery Program, Millennium
will, within fifteen (15) days after such designation, disclose to Bayer in
writing the stage of Millennium's development of such Dropped Gene. In the
event that Millennium has not, prior to the date of such designation,
developed a Configured Assay with respect to such Dropped Gene and initiated
high throughput screening for such Dropped Gene, Bayer shall have the right
to include the Dropped Gene in the Discovery Program on the same basis as if
such gene had not constituted a Dropped Gene. In the event that Millennium
has, prior to the date of such designation, developed a Configured Assay
with respect to such Dropped Gene and initiated high throughput screening,
Bayer shall, within fifteen (15) days after
-7-
Millennium's disclosure relating to the development status of such Dropped
Gene, either select the Dropped Gene as a QT or elect to maintain its status
as a Dropped Gene at all times thereafter. If Bayer selects the Dropped Gene
as a QT, (x) Bayer shall pay Millennium a success fee for the Configured
Assay with respect to such QT, and (y) the non-exclusive license set forth
in Section 3.2 of this Agreement and the Millennium covenant not to xxx set
forth in Section 3.5 of this Agreement shall apply as though such QT were a
Returned QT and shall be limited to Millennium Know-How (and corresponding
Millennium Patent Rights) generated by Millennium prior to the development
of the applicable Configured Assay and to the Configured Assay. In the case
that Millennium uses commercially reasonable efforts over a period of at
least [**] but fails to develop a Configured Assay for a Dropped Gene, the
same general principles shall apply to any alternative drug discovery
activities undertaken by Millennium and the rights of Bayer with respect to
such Dropped Gene. For example, if, in any such case, Millennium identifies
a lead structure through rational drug design without the aid of a
Configured Assay, Millennium shall be deemed to have developed a Configured
Assay and initiated a high-throughput screen."
(c) SECTION 2.8.
(i) SECTION 2.8(a). Section 2.8(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended
by adding the following subsection at the end thereof:
"(iv) [**]. Unless otherwise agreed by the Program Directors,
Millennium shall have filed a patent application covering and
claiming [**] of a [**] at or prior to the designation of [**] as
a QT."
(ii) SECTION 2.8(c)(v). Section 2.8(c)(v) of the Agreement is hereby
amended by deleting such subsection in its entirety and by substituting
the following in its place:
"(v) EXCESS POOL. For the purposes of providing a pool of
potential available QTs for Selected QTs for which Assay
Configuration Activities are being undertaken as of the expiration
of the Fifth Contract Year, a limited number of QTs ("Excess QTs")
shall remain in the QT Pool (the "Excess Pool") for a period
ending on the earlier of (x) [**]after the date of the final
selection by Bayer from the Selectable QT Pool, or (y) [**] (the
"Post-Term Period"). The number of QTs in the Excess Pool shall be
equal to (A) the number of Selected QTs for which Assay
Configuration Activities are being undertaken as of the expiration
of the Fifth Contract Year, multiplied by (B) a fraction, (i) the
numerator of which is the total number of Failed QTs (as defined
below) through the end of the Fifth Contract Year, and (ii) the
denominator of which is the total number of Selected QTs through
the end of the Fifth Contract Year. In the event that the QT Pool
contains more QTs than the number to be included in the Excess
Pool (as determined in accordance with the preceding sentence), as
necessary from time to time Bayer shall designate
-8-
those QTs that it wishes to remain in the Excess Pool. In the
event that there is an insufficient number of QTs in the Excess
Pool to serve as Excess QTs during the Post-Term Period,
Millennium shall use commercially reasonable efforts to identify a
sufficient number of QTs (other than Waived QTs) to serve as
Excess QTs, PROVIDED THAT Millennium's obligation to provide
Excess QTs shall terminate on [**], except as provided below. In
the event that the Program Term is extended pursuant to Section
2.11 and a QT selected by Bayer in the Sixth Contract Year becomes
a Failed QT after [**], Millennium shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to identify an Excess QT. As used above, a
"Failed QT" means a Selected QT which, despite reasonable
commercial efforts, is not able to be developed into a Configured
Assay within [**] if a Party requests the other Party to assist it
in [**], as provided in Section 2.9(a)(i)) (or, in either case,
such shorter or longer period as the Program Directors may
determine by mutual agreement) of the Selected QT Designation Date
for such QT."
(iii) SECTION 2.8(e). Section 2.8(e) of the Agreement is hereby amended
by deleting such subsection in its entirety and by substituting the
following in its place:
"(e) FAILED QTS. Bayer shall be entitled to retain rights to any
Failed QT (e.g., [**]). If Bayer does not elect to retain rights
to such Failed QT, the Failed QT shall be returned to the Holding
Pool where it shall remain until [**] from its designation as a
Failed QT. Within such period, Bayer shall have the right to
undertake research activities with respect to such Failed QT (i.e.
[**] for such Failed QT) and re-select the Failed QT; if Bayer
re-selects such Failed QT within such period, the Failed QT shall
become a new Selected QT and, notwithstanding [**] a success fee
shall be payable with respect thereto as of the date of such
re-selection. If Bayer does not re-select the Failed QT within
such period, it shall be deemed a Waived QT. For purposes of
determining the number of QTs Bayer may select during the Program
Term, a Failed QT shall not be counted towards the maximum number
of selections Bayer is entitled to make, unless Bayer elects to
retain it or re-selects it.
4. ARTICLE III - BAYER AND MILLENNIUM RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS RELATING TO
SELECTED QTS
(a) SECTION 3.1. Section 3.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding
the following subsection to the end thereof:
"(c) SPECIAL LIMITATIONS RELATING TO NOVEL [**] PROTEINS.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1(a) and 3.2(a), the license
grants with respect to each Novel

[**] Protein set forth in Sections 3.1(a) and 3.2(a) shall apply and be
limited specifically to the CFA or CFAs which is/are [**] (i.e., shall be
limited to researching, developing, making, having made, importing, using,
having used, offering for sale, selling and having sold products labeled for
indications within the CFA or CFAs which is/are [**]), PROVIDED THAT on or
before the date that such Novel [**] Protein is designated as a QT, Bayer
shall have the option (exercisable by providing written notice to Millennium
on or prior to such designation date), to extend the scope of such licenses
to the Field. In the event that, during the Program Term, Millennium
discovers [**] within an [**] for a Novel [**] Protein, Millennium shall
disclose [**] to Bayer and the foregoing licenses will be expanded to apply
to the CFA which is [**], provided that Millennium shall have filed a patent
application covering and claiming [**]. In the event that, during the
Program Term, Millennium discovers [**] outside [**] for a Novel [**]
Protein, Millennium may, in its sole discretion, disclose [**] to Bayer and
the Parties may, by mutual agreement, expand the foregoing licenses to [**]
which is [**]."
(b) SECTION 3.2. Section 3.2(d) of the Agreement is hereby amended by
adding the following the subsection at the end thereof:
"(v) SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO NOVEL [**] PROTEINS. With
respect to a Returned QT which is a Novel [**] Protein,
Millennium's option to obtain a license from Bayer under
Bayer's rights in Bayer Returned QT Know How and Bayer
Returned QT Patent Rights shall be limited to the CFAs and
disease areas which were, at the time such Novel [**] Protein
became a Returned QT, the subject of the license grant by
Millennium to Bayer as set forth in Section 3.1(c).
Furthermore, in the event that a Millennium [**] Failure
occurs with respect to a Novel [**] Protein and Bayer elects
to designate the relevant Selected QT as a Returned QT
because of such failure, the [**] by Millennium to Returned
QTs, as well as the [**] by Millennium under this subsection
(d), shall [**]."
(c) SECTION 3.5. Section 3.5 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding
the following at the end thereof:
"With respect to a Returned QT which is a Novel [**] Protein,
the foregoing covenant not to xxx shall be limited to the
CFAs [**]which were, at the time such Novel [**] Protein
became a Returned QT, the subject of the license grant by
Millennium to Bayer as set forth in Section 3.1(c)."
5. ARTICLE V - FINANCIAL PROVISIONS
(a) PRIOR SUCCESS FEE PAYMENTS. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.4
of the Agreement, Bayer has paid to Millennium $[**] in success fees for QTs
entered into the Selectable QT Pool through April 30, 2001; such payments shall
be considered final and shall
-10-
not be subject to any adjustment or repayment. As reflected in Section 3(c)(ii)
and (iii) and Section 5(b) of this Amendment No. 5, the replacement and refund
provisions of the Agreement will be eliminated for all QTs entered into the
Selectable QT Pool, PROVIDED THAT Millennium's obligation to establish the
Excess Pool [**] shall remain in effect, as provided in Section 2.8(c)(v) of the
Agreement. As provided in subsection (b) below, effective as of May 1, 2001,
success fee payments shall be payable by Bayer in consideration of Configured
Assays that are developed from QTs and not in consideration of QTs entered into
the Selectable QT Pool.
(b) SECTION 5.4. Effective as of May 1, 2001, Section 5.4 of the Agreement
is hereby amended by deleting Section 5.4 in it entirety and by substituting
the following in its place:
"Section 5.4 SUCCESS FEES.
(a) SUCCESS FEE PAYMENT AMOUNTS. Subject to the provisions of
subsection (b), Bayer shall pay Millennium a success fee of [**] for each
Configured Assay developed on or after May 1, 2001 from a QT. Except as
provided below, such payments shall be deemed to be earned on the last
business day of the month during which a Configured Assay is developed, and
the success fee shall be payable within thirty (30) days after such payment
is deemed to be earned.
(b) MAXIMUM SUCCESS FEES. The maximum amount of success fees payable
by Bayer to Millennium shall be subject to the following periodic maximum
limitations:
--------------------------------- -----------------------------------
PERIOD MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF
SUCCESS FEES
--------------------------------- -----------------------------------

(c) PAYMENT OF EXCESS SUCCESS FEES. In the event that a success fee
is owed but payment of such success fee would exceed the limitations set
forth in subsection (b), the payment of such excess success fee shall be
paid within the first three months of the next period, it being understood
that the maximum success fee for such next period shall
-11-
apply to such next period. For the avoidance of doubt, Bayer will in no
event from May 1, 2001 through the remainder of the term of this Agreement
be obligated to pay success fees in excess of [**].
(d) SUCCESS FEE OVERPAYMENTS. In Bayer's sole discretion, Bayer
may, in any given period, pay Millennium an amount in excess of the amount
of success fees owed by Bayer during such period up to the maximum
limitation for such period (a "Success Fee Overpayment"). Bayer may, in its
discretion, apply the Success Fee Overpayment to success fee payments owed
in subsequent periods. Any Success Fee Overpayments outstanding (i.e. not
applied to actual payments owed by Bayer to Millennium) after [**] in the
event of the extension of the Program Term pursuant to Section 2.11 of this
Agreement) shall be repaid promptly by Millennium."
(c) SECTION 5.5. Section 5.5 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding
the following paragraph to the end of such section:
"Notwithstanding the Base Royalty rates set forth above, with respect
to Bayer Royalty Products derived from [**] accepted by Bayer as QTs
prior to May 1, 2001 ("Bayer NAP Royalty Products"), the Base Royalty
shall be adjusted as follows (while the Reduced Royalty rates shall
remain the same as for Bayer Royalty Products derived from [**]):

The royalties payable with respect to Bayer [**] Royalty Products will
be payable solely on Net Sales of such Bayer [**] Royalty Products
[**]which fall within [**] which are the [**] of the [**] of this
Agreement. In order to enable the Parties to [**] of Bayer [**] Royalty
Products in the [**], the Parties shall, within ninety (90) days after
the designation by Bayer of the first Development Candidate based upon
a QT derived from [**], agree upon a mechanism for [**] of Bayer [**]
Royalty Products generally. If the Parties are unable to reach
agreement upon such a mechanism within such 90 day period, the Parties
will refer the issue to a mutually acceptable third party for
resolution (and, failing agreement upon the selection of such a third
party, to arbitration pursuant to Section 10.4 of this Agreement). In
the event that a Millennium [**] Failure
-12-
occurs which results in there being no patent protection on [**] of the
applicable [**], Bayer shall have the right to sell Bayer [**] Royalty
Products derived from [**] without [**] to Millennium of [**] above."
6. ARTICLE VI - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNERSHIP, PROTECTION AND RELATED MATTERS
(a) SECTION 6.2. Section 6.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding
the following subsection at the end of such section:
"(d) [**] PATENTS. Except as otherwise provided in Sections
6.2(b) and 6.2(c), Millennium shall have responsibility for deciding to file,
preparing, filing and prosecuting patents applications relating to [**] claims
for [**]. From and after the date that [**] is designated as a QT, or from and
after the date Millennium discovers [**] within [**] during the Program Term for
such [**], (i) Millennium and Bayer shall mutually agree upon [**] in such [**]
in [**], and (ii) Millennium will advise Bayer of any material issues which
