The Seller does not have any subsidiaries and does not own, beneficially or otherwise, any shares or other securities of, or any direct or indirect interest of any nature in, any other Entity. The Seller has the power and authority to own, lease and operate the Transferred Assets and to carry on the Business as previously conducted and as now being conducted.

Such notification shall include a description in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) of the facts constituting the basis for such third-party claim and the amount of the Damages claimed. Within 15 days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim at its sole cost and expense with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that (i) the Indemnifying Party may only assume control of such defense if it acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party that any Damages or other Liabilities that may be assessed against the Indemnified Party in connection with such third-party claim constitute Damages for which the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified pursuant to this Section 4 and (ii) the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of a third-party claim involving criminal liability or in which equitable relief is sought against the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not, or is not permitted under the terms hereof to, so assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. The Party not controlling such defense may participate therein at its own expense; provided that if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes, based on advice from counsel, that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests with respect to such action, suit, proceeding or claim, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party solely in connection therewith shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties. The party controlling such defense shall keep the other party advised of the status of such action, suit, proceeding or claim and the defense thereof and shall consider recommendations made by the other party with respect thereto. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry into judgment arising from, any such action, suit, proceeding or claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of such action, suit, proceeding or claim that does not include a complete release of the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect thereto or that imposes any liability or obligation on the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

4.4 Claim Procedure. Any claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement pursuant to this Section 4 (and, at the option of any Indemnitee, any other claim for a monetary remedy, such as in the case of a claim based upon intentional misrepresentation or fraud, relating to this Agreement) shall be brought and resolved exclusively in accordance with Schedule 4.4.

Xxxxxx to act on Seller’s behalf; provided, however, that in the event that Xx. Xxxxxx commences employment or consulting with a Person other than the Seller during the period thirty (30) to ninety (90) days following the Closing, the period of cooperation by the Seller set forth in this Section 5.2 shall cease on the date of such commencement of employment or consulting.

The Seller hereby irrevocably nominates, constitutes and appoints the Purchaser as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Seller (with full power of substitution) effective as of the date of this Agreement, and hereby authorizes the Purchaser, in the name of and on behalf of the Seller, to execute, deliver, acknowledge, certify, file and record any document, to institute and prosecute any Proceeding and to take any other action (on or at any time after the date of this Agreement) that the Purchaser may deem appropriate for the purpose of: (i) collecting, asserting, enforcing or perfecting any claim, right or interest of any kind that is included in or relates to any of the Transferred Assets; (ii) defending or compromising any claim or Proceeding relating to any of the Transferred Assets; or (iii) otherwise carrying out or facilitating any of the Transactions.

The Seller shall retain all books and records with respect to Taxes pertaining to the Transferred Assets for a period of at least six years following the Closing.

(b) All real property taxes, personal property taxes and similar ad valorem obligations levied with respect to the Business or the Transferred Assets for a taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the date of the Closing shall be apportioned between the Seller and the Purchaser as of the Closing based on the number of days of such taxable period ending on the date of the Closing (the “Pre-Closing Tax Period”) and the number of days of such taxable period after the date of this Agreement (with respect to any such taxable period, the “Post-Closing Tax Period”). The Seller shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that is attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, and the Purchaser shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that is attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period. Upon receipt of any xxxx for real or personal property Taxes relating to the Business or the Transferred Assets, the Seller and the Purchaser, as applicable, shall present a reasonably detailed, written statement to the other setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which each is entitled under this Section 5.3(b) together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the proration amount. The proration amount shall be paid by the party owing it to the other within 20 days after delivery of such statement. In the event that either the Seller or the Purchaser shall make any other payment for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section 5.3(b), the other party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than 20 days after the presentation of a reasonably

detailed, written statement setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the presenting party is entitled along with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount of reimbursement.

RE: Important Confidential Matter

Dear Xxxxxxxx:

In connection with the Second Amended and Restated License Agreement effective May 7, 2010 by and between Virdante Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Virdante”) and The Rockefeller University (“Rockefeller”) (the “License Agreement”), Virdante is writing to provide information to Rockefeller regarding an important confidential matter and requests that Rockefeller and Buyer (as defined below) agree to the terms as set forth herein. As you know, earlier this year, Virdante commenced efforts to seek a strategic acquirer or licensor (the “Strategic Process”) for technology licensed to Virdante from Rockefeller under the License Agreement and that was the subject of sponsored research under the Sponsored Research Agreement dated May 7, 2007, as amended, by and between Virdante and Rockefeller (the “Sponsored Research Agreement”).

In connection with the Strategic Process, I am pleased to report that Virdante is in discussions with Momenta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Buyer”) regarding a possible transaction in which Buyer proposes to acquire certain assets of Virdante by means of an asset purchase agreement (the “Transaction”). Subject to and upon the closing of the Transaction, Virdante would assign, and Buyer would assume, the License Agreement as well as the Non-Exclusive Research and Development Use License Agreement, dated February 10, 2010 by and between Virdante and Rockefeller and the Letter Agreement by and between Virdante and Rockefeller, dated November 29, 2011 (the “Ancillary Agreements”).

Subject to obtaining your consent and upon the closing of the Transaction, Virdante will assign to the Buyer all of Virdante’s rights under the License Agreement and Ancillary Agreements. In addition, subject to obtaining your consent and upon the closing of the Transaction, the Buyer will assume all of Virdante’s obligations pursuant to the License Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

C- 1

Accordingly, Virdante, Rockefeller and Buyer hereby agree to the terms and conditions set forth below:

1. Buyer Representations: Buyer represents to Rockefeller that it accepts the conditions to be legally bound by the License Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements upon the closing of the Transaction and to deliver to Rockefeller an updated Development Plan (as defined in the License Agreement) within forty-five (45) days after the closing date of the proposed Transaction.

2. Rockefeller Consent: Rockefeller hereby consents to the assignment of the License Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to Buyer upon the closing date of the Transaction.

SCHEDULE 4.4

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

1. If any Indemnitee has incurred or suffered or claims to have incurred or suffered, or believes that it may incur or suffer, Damages for which it is or may be entitled to be held harmless, indemnified, compensated or reimbursed under Section 4 of the Agreement or for which it is or may be entitled to a monetary remedy (such as in the case of a claim based on intentional misrepresentation or fraud), such Indemnitee may deliver a notice of claim (a “Notice of Claim”) to the Seller or the Purchaser (each, an “Indemnitor”). Each Notice of Claim shall: (a) state that such Indemnitee believes that such Indemnitee is or may be entitled to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under Section 4 of the Agreement or is or may otherwise be entitled to a monetary remedy; (b) contain a brief description of the circumstances supporting such Indemnitee’s belief that such Indemnitee is so entitled to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement or is or may otherwise be entitled to a monetary remedy; and (c) if practicable, contain a good faith, non-binding, preliminary estimate of the aggregate dollar amount of actual and potential Damages that have arisen and may arise as a result of such circumstances (the aggregate amount of such estimate, as it may be modified by such Indemnitee in good faith from time to time, being referred to as the “Claimed Amount”).

2. During the 30-day period commencing upon delivery by an Indemnitee to the Indemnitor of a Notice of Claim (the “Dispute Period”), the Indemnitor may deliver to the Indemnitee who delivered the Notice of Claim a written response (the “Response Notice”) in which the Indemnitor: (a) agrees that the full Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee; (b) agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount (the “Agreed Amount”) is owed to the Indemnitee; or (c) indicates that no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee. If the Response Notice is delivered in accordance with clause “(b)” or “(c)” of the preceding sentence, the Response Notice shall also contain a brief description of the facts and circumstances supporting the Indemnitor’s claim that only a portion or no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee, as the case may be. Any part of the Claimed Amount that is not agreed to be owed to the Indemnitee pursuant to the Response Notice (or the entire Claimed Amount, if the Indemnitor asserts in the Response Notice that no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee) being referred to as the “Contested Amount” (it being understood that the Contested Amount shall be modified from time to time to reflect any good faith modifications by the Indemnitee to the Claimed Amount). If a Response Notice is not received by the Indemnitee prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period, then the Indemnitor shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that the full Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee.

3. In the case where the Seller is the Indemnitor, if: (a) the Indemnitor delivers a Response Notice to the Indemnitee agreeing that the full Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee; or (b) the Indemnitor does not deliver a Response Notice during the Dispute Period, then, the Claimed Amount shall be deducted from the Milestone Payments (when and if such amounts become due and payable pursuant to Section 1.3).

4. In the case where the Seller is the Indemnitor, if the Indemnitor delivers a Response Notice to the Indemnitee during the Dispute Period agreeing that less than the full Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnitee, then, the portion of the Claimed Amount which is not the Contested Amount shall be deducted from the Milestone Payments (when and if such amounts become due and payable pursuant to Section 1.3).

5. If the Indemnitor delivers a Response Notice to the Indemnitee during the Dispute Period indicating that there is a Contested Amount, the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute related to the Contested Amount. If the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor resolve such

dispute, then their resolution of such dispute shall be binding on the Indemnitor and such Indemnitee and a settlement agreement stipulating the amount owed to the Indemnitee (the “Stipulated Amount”) shall be signed by the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor and, in the case where the Seller is the Indemnitor, the Stipulated Amount shall be deducted from the Milestone Payments (when and if such amounts become due and payable pursuant to Section 1.3).

6. If the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee are unable to resolve the dispute relating to any Contested Amount during the 30-day period commencing upon the delivery of the Response Notice to the Indemnitee, then either the Indemnitee or the Indemnitor may submit the claim described in the Notice of Claim to the federal or state court in the County of Suffolk in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as provided for in Section 6.6 of the Agreement. The court’s authority shall be confined to deciding: (a) whether the Indemnitee is entitled to recover the Contested Amount (or a portion thereof), and the portion of the Contested Amount the Indemnitee is entitled to recover; and (b) the non-prevailing party in the Proceeding. The final decision of the court shall include the dollar amount of the award to the Indemnitee, if any (the “Award Amount”), shall be furnished to the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in writing and shall constitute a conclusive determination of the issue(s) in question, binding upon the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee (the “Resolved Amount”). The non-prevailing party in any such Proceeding shall pay the reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the prevailing party, and the fees and expenses associated with the Proceeding. If an Indemnitee is found to be the prevailing party in any such Proceeding, the amount of the reasonable fees and expenses of such Indemnitee payable by the non-prevailing party pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be added to the Award Amount. The non-prevailing party shall be determined solely by the court. If a Contested Amount is finally resolved, then, within 10 days after the final resolution of such Contested Amount, the Resolved Amount shall be deducted from the Milestone Payments (when and if such amounts become due and payable pursuant to Section 1.3) and the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller the sum of: the amount, if any, equal to (a) the remaining Milestone Payments (due and payable pursuant to Section 1.3); minus (b) the aggregate amount of the Claimed Amounts and Contested Amounts associated with all remaining Unresolved Claims.

8. In the case where the Seller is the Indemnitor, pending resolution of a Contested Amount in accordance with the foregoing procedures, the Purchaser shall be entitled to temporarily withhold the amount of such Contested Amount from any Milestone Payments. If within 180 days of the applicable Response Notice such Contested Amount has not been resolved and the Purchaser has not filed a court claim with respect to such Contested Amount in accordance with the foregoing paragraph 6 above, then such Contested Amount shall no longer be deemed a Contested Amount, and the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller such Contested Amount withheld from any Milestone Payments (when and if such amounts become due and payable pursuant to Section 1.3).
