$0.01 per share (the "Ramot Warrants") and one to purchase 1,097,215 shares of
common stock of the Issuer at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the
"Consultant Warrants", and together with the Ramot Warrants, the "Warrants").
The Warrants were issued to Dr. Offen effective November 4, 2004, will
become exercisable in full on November 4, 2005 and will remain exercisable until
November 4, 2010. The Ramot Warrants were issued to Dr. Offen in connection with
the Research and License Agreement entered into between the Issuer and Ramot at
Tel Aviv University ("Ramot") on July 8, 2004 (the "License Agreement").
Pursuant to Section 7.2 of the License Agreement, the Issuer agreed to issue to
Ramot and its designees, warrants to purchase 29% of the Issuer's issued and
outstanding shares of capital stock on a fully diluted and as converted basis as

warrants to purchase a total of 10,606,415 shares of the Issuer's common stock

shares of the Issuer's common stock to certain designees and to issue the
remaining warrants to purchase 6,363,849 shares of common stock to Ramot. Of the
warrants to purchase 4,242,566 shares that were designated for Ramot's
designees, Dr. Offen was issued warrants to purchase 1,590,962 shares of common
stock.
Simultaneously with the execution of the License Agreement, the Issuer
entered into an individual consulting agreement (the "Consulting Agreement")
with Dr. Offen pursuant to which, all intellectual property developed by Dr.
Offen in the performance of his services thereunder will be owned by Ramot and
licensed to the Issuer under the License Agreement. Pursuant to Section 3(b) of
the Consulting Agreement, the Issuer agreed to issue Dr. Offen, as partial
consideration for his consulting services, the Consultant Warrants to purchase
1,097,215 shares of the Issuer's common stock (reflecting 3% of the Issuer's
issued and outstanding shares of capital stock on a fully diluted and as
converted basis on the same date as the issuance of the Ramot Warrants (November
