The Board also shall make (i) any adjustments that are necessary or appropriate to maintain equality between (a) the Capital Accounts of the Members and (b) the amount of Company capital reflected on the Company's balance sheet, as computed for book purposes, in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) and (ii) any appropriate modifications in the event unanticipated events might otherwise cause this Agreement not to comply with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b). 4.2 ALLOCATIONS OF PROFITS After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in Sections 4.4 and 4.5, Profits or items thereof for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members in the following manner: (a) First, Profits (or items thereof) to Techniclone in the amount of any distributions made by the Company during the year under Section 5.3 (a).

(d) Fourth, to the Members in proportion to and in the amount of any distributions made by the Company during the year under Section 5.3(d). (e) Fifth, Profits equal to Losses (or items of deduction) previously allocated pursuant to Section 4.3 shall be allocated to the Members who received such Loss allocations in proportion to and in the amount of such prior allocation (reduced by previous allocations of Profits under this Section 4.2(e).) (f) Thereafter, all remaining Profits shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their respective Membership Interests. 4.3 ALLOCATION OF LOSSES AND DEDUCTIONS 4.3.1 The Company shall allocate to OXiGENE cumulative losses and items of deduction equal to the cumulative cash capital contributions actually made by OXiGENE under section 3.1.2. 4.3.2 The Company next shall allocate to the Members contributing additional Capital Contributions under Section 3.1.3 any Losses in proportion to the additional Capital Contributions made by each Member, up to the amount of such additional Capital Contributions. 4.3.3 After giving effect to the special allocations set forth in this Section 4.3 and Sections 4.4 and 4.5, Losses for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Membership Interests. 4.4 SPECIAL ALLOCATIONS The following special allocations shall be made in the following order and priority: 4.4.1 MINIMUM GAIN CHARGEBACK AND QUALIFIED INCOME OFFSET No Member shall be allocated Losses or deductions if the allocation causes the Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit; in such event, such items shall be allocated to the other Members. If a Member for any reason (whether or not expected) receives (1) an allocation of Loss or deduction (or item thereof) or (2) any Distribution, which causes the Member to have an Adjusted Capital Account Deficit at the end of any taxable year, then all items of income and gain of the Company (consisting of a pro rata portion of each item of Company income, including gross income and gain) for that taxable year shall be allocated to that Member, before any other allocation is made of Company items of Profit or Loss for that taxable year (other than an allocation under Section 4.4.2), in the amount and in proportions required to eliminate the excess as quickly as possible. This Section 4.4.1 is intended to comply with, and shall be interpreted consistently with, the "alternate test for economic effect" and "qualified income offset" provisions of the Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(b). -17- 4.4.2 MINIMUM GAIN CHARGEBACKS In order to comply with the "minimum gain chargeback" requirements of Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(4), and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event there is a net decrease in a Member's share of Minimum Gain and Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain during a taxable year of the Company, such Member shall be allocated items of income and gain for that year (and if necessary, other years) as required by and in accordance with Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(4) before any other allocation is made. It is the intent of the parties hereto that any allocation pursuant to this Section 4.4.2 shall constitute a "minimum gain chargeback" under Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(i)(4). 4.4.3 CONTRIBUTED PROPERTY AND BOOK-UPS In accordance with Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder, including Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(d)(3), income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to any property contributed (or demand contributed) to the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of the property to the Company for federal income tax purposes and its fair market value at the date of Contribution (or deemed Contribution). If the adjusted book value of any Company asset is adjusted under Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss, and deduction with respect to the asset shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of the asset for federal income tax purposes and its adjusted book value in the manner required under Code Section 704(c) and the Regulations thereunder. The Board shall select a method as described in Regulation 1.704-3 for making Section 704(c) allocations. 4.4.4 NONRECOURSE DEDUCTIONS Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated among the Members in proportion to their Membership Interests. 4.4.5 MEMBER NONRECOURSE DEDUCTIONS Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1). 4.4.6 CODE SECTION 754 ADJUSTMENTS To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as a result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of its Interest, the amount of such adjustment to Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases the basis of the asset) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their interests in the Company in the event Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Member to whom such distribution was made in the event Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies. -18- 4.4.7 ALLOCATIONS RELATING TO TAXABLE ISSUANCE OF INTERESTS Income, gain, loss or deduction, if any, realized by the Company as a direct or indirect result of the issuance of an Interest by the Company to a Member (the "Issuance Items") shall be allocated among the Members so that, to the extent possible, the Capital Account balance for each Member for any Fiscal Year is equal to the Capital Account balance that would have been maintained for such Member for such Fiscal Year had the Company not realized the Issuance Items. 4.5 OTHER ALLOCATIONS RULES (a) For purposes of determining the Profits, Losses or any other items allocable to any period, Profits, Losses and any such other items shall be determined on a daily, monthly or other basis, as determined by the Board using any permissible method under Code Section 706 and the Regulations thereunder. (b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.6 with respect to allocations pursuant to Code Section 704(c), for federal income tax purposes, all items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction shall be made in a manner that is consistent with the allocation of Profits and Losses pursuant to this Article 4. The Members are aware of the income tax consequences of the allocations of this Article 4 and hereby agree to be bound by the provisions of this Article 4 in reporting their allocable shares of Company income and loss for income tax purposes. (c) Solely for purposes of determining a Member's proportionate share of the "excess nonrecourse liabilities" of the Company within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.752- 3(a)(3), the Members' interests in Company profits shall be equal to their respective Membership Interests. 4.6 TAX MATTERS MEMBER (a) Techniclone shall be the "tax matters partner" (the "Tax Matters Member") for the Company within the meaning of Code Section 6231(a)(7). (b) The Tax Matters Member shall notify and provide copies to the other Members within five (5) business days (or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter) of any communication received from any governmental authority regarding any proposed or existing audit, administrative or judicial proceeding, request for information, preliminary discussion or any other formal or informal communication regarding any tax matters pertaining to the Company or any Member. In addition to and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Tax Matters Member shall request, pursuant to Code Section 6223, that the other Members receive notice from the IRS regarding any proceedings or adjustments. The Tax Matters Member shall consult with the other Members concerning all tax matters and shall not take any action in connection with any audit or proceeding, or enter into any agreement with the IRS, that may adversely affect the other Members without their express prior written consent. (c) The Tax Matters Member shall, upon request of a Member, make an election under Code Section 754 and the applicable regulations thereunder. -19- ARTICLE 5 DISTRIBUTIONS 5.1 DISTRIBUTIONS; GENERAL The Board shall cause the Company to distribute, no less frequently than annually, all of the Net Cash From Operations of the Company and any special distributions required under Section 5.3 5.2 ADDITIONAL LIMITATIONS ON DISTRIBUTIONS No distribution shall be made if it would render the Company insolvent or compromise its ability to operate, giving consideration to OXiGENE's required Capital Contributions.

Except for situations in which the direct approval of the Members is expressly required by this Agreement or the Act, the Board shall have full, complete and exclusive authority, power and discretion to manage and control the business, property and affairs of the Company, to make all decisions regarding those matters and to perform or cause to be performed any and all other acts or activities customary or incident to the management of the Company's business, property and affairs.

Techniclone has and will continue to have the right to enter into one or more agreements with the University of Texas and Dr. Philip Thorpe to conduct research outside the Field provided that such research does not directly involve the Field and does not adversely affect the ability of the University of Texas or Dr. Philip Thorpe to perform the services required of either or both of them under the Sponsored Research Agreement. The Board shall have the authority to determine whether research or other activities referred to in the preceding sentence are outside the Field. 6.2 MANAGEMENT 6.2.1 The Board shall have four (4) Managers, two (2) of whom shall be designated by OXiGENE (the "OXiGENE Managers") and two (2) of whom shall be designated by Techniclone (the "Techniclone Managers"). OXiGENE may remove any OXiGENE Manager or fill any vacancy created by the removal, resignation, death or disability of an OXiGENE Manager and determine the effective date of such replacement.

In performing his or her duties, the Managers shall be entitled to rely on information, opinions, reports, or statements, including financial statements and other financial data, of the following persons or groups, unless they have knowledge concerning the matter in question that would cause such reliance to be unwarranted and provided that the Manager acts in good faith and after reasonable inquiry when the need therefor is indicated by the circumstances: (a) one or more officers, employees or other agents of the Company or a Member whom the Manager reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the matters presented; or (b) any attorney, independent accountant or other person as to matters that the Manager reasonably believes to be within such person's professional or expert competence. 6.4 DEVOTION OF TIME A Manager is not obligated to devote all of his or her time or business efforts to the affairs of the Company.

Meetings shall be held at such place and time as agreed to by the Board. The Chair shall provide at least five (5) business days' advance written notice and an agenda of each meeting of the Board to each Manager, unless a Manager waives the advance notice requirement with respect to that Manager.

If the notice is mailed, it shall be deposited in the United States mail at least four (4) days before the time of the holding of the meeting. If the notice is delivered personally or by telephone or by telecopier or by e-mail, it shall be delivered personally or by telephone or by telecopier at least forty-eight (48) hours before the time of the holding of the meeting.

Except in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, no Member shall Transfer all or any part of its Membership Interest, or any interest therein, unless the Member (a) obtains the prior written consent of the other Member ("Nontransferring Member"), which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, and (b) provides satisfactory evidence to the Company that such Transfer shall not violate applicable securities laws. Unless such prior requirements are met, the proposed Transfer may not take place, and any attempted Transfer in derogation hereof shall be deemed null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Member may transfer all or part of its Membership Interest within or among the members of its "affiliated group" within the meaning of Section 1504(a)(1) of the Code. If for any reason any clause or provision of this Section 13.1 should be held unenforceable, invalid or in violation of law by any court or tribunal, then the Non-transferring Member shall have the right, exercisable in writing within ninety (90) days of the date of final determination of invalidity or unenforceability, to purchase the Membership Interest Members such transferring Member purported to Transfer, pursuant to the terms of Section 13.3. 13.2 ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS Upon the occurrence of any of the following events with respect to a Member ("Occurrence Member") (wherein there is not a continuity of proprietary interest of the shareholders of the Member who owned the shares of the Member prior to the occurrence of such event): (a) any transfer of substantially all of its assets, (b) a liquidation or dissolution, or (c) any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, the Member that is not involved with such an occurrence shall have the right, exercisable in writing within sixty (60) days after the later of (i) receipt of written notice of such occurrence and (ii) the conclusion of the appraisal contemplated in Section 13.3, to purchase the Occurrence Member's entire Membership Interest pursuant to the terms of Section 13.3 or to dissolve the Company pursuant to the terms of Article 14. The Occurrence Member shall notify the other Member in writing of any occurrence described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 13.2 at the earliest time practicable. 13.3 PURCHASE PRICE AND PAYMENT DATE For purposes of Sections 13.1 and 13.2, the purchase price to be paid for the Membership Interest of the transferring Member or Occurrence Member shall be computed as follows: -39- 13.3.1 Within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of an event described in Section 13.2, the Members shall jointly appoint an investment banking firm or failing this joint action, each shall designate an investment banking firm. Within thirty (30) days after their appointment, the designated investment banking firms shall designate an additional investment banking firm (the "Neutral Investment Banker") (collectively, the Neutral Investment Banker and the two investment banking firms designated by the Members being referred to as the "Three Investment Bankers"). The failure by any Member to appoint an investment banking firm within the time allowed shall be deemed equivalent to appointing the other Member's investment banking firm as the jointly appointed investment banking firm. Within sixty (60) days after the appointment of the jointly appointed investment banking firm or the Neutral Investment Banker, as the case may be, the jointly appointed investment banking firm or the Three Investment Bankers, by a majority vote, shall render their appraisal of the fair market value of the Membership Interest being purchased, which appraisal shall be binding and conclusive. The Company shall bear all appraisal expenses. 13.3.2 The payment date of the purchase price pursuant to this Section 13.3 shall not be later than sixty (60) days after the sixty (60) day period set forth in Section 13.3(a). 13.4 CHANGE OF CONTROL 13.4.1 In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below) of either Member (the "Acquired Member"), the other Member shall have the option to purchase the Membership Interest of the Acquired Member in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 13.3. 13.4.2 For purposes of this Section 13.4, a "Change in Control" occurs when (a) any Person becomes, after the date hereof, the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the outstanding securities of the Acquired Member having a right to vote in the election of Directors or (b) the Acquired Member is involved in a reorganization, merger or consolidation, except a "Change in Control" will not have occurred if, after the transaction, 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the corporation acquiring the Acquired Member's voting securities or resulting or surviving from the reorganization, merger or consolidation are owned by the Acquired Member's shareholders in the same proportion as they own the Acquired Member's voting securities immediately prior to such transaction. 13.5 ADMISSION OF SUBSTITUTED MEMBERS Subject to the other provisions of this Section 13, a transferee of an Interest may be admitted to the Company as a substituted Member only upon satisfaction of the following conditions: 13.5.1 The Members unanimously consent to such admission, which consent may be given or withheld in the sole discretion of each Member; 13.5.2 The transferee becomes a party to this Agreement as a Member and executes such documents and instruments as the Board may reasonably request as may be necessary or appropriate to confirm such transferee as a Member and bind such transferee by the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and -40- 13.5.3 The transferee pays or reimburses the Company for all reasonable legal, filing and publication costs that the Company incurs in connection with the admission of the transferee as a Member with respect to the transferred Interest. 13.6 SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE Each of the Members acknowledges that the rights and obligations provided by this Section 13 are of unique value to it and that the payment of monetary damages could not adequately compensate the other Member for any breach of the obligations set forth herein. Accordingly, the rights of the Members set forth in this Section 13 shall be specifically enforceable in accordance with their terms. ARTICLE 14 SALE, DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION 14.1 EVENTS OF DISSOLUTION 14.1.1 The Company shall be dissolved upon the mutual written consent of the Members. 14.1.2 The Company shall be dissolved upon the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Section 13.2 if the Member that is not the Occurrence Member shall not have exercised the purchase option provided in Section 13.2 and shall have requested, within sixty (60) days after such occurrence, that the Company be dissolved. 14.1.3 The Company may be dissolved for federal and Delaware income tax purposes, but preserved in nominal form for Delaware state law purposes, by either Member upon the bankruptcy, receivership or insolvency of the other Member or the Company, or upon the material breach of this Agreement by the other Member. 14.1.4 The Members recognize that the Company may be dissolved by order of a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to ss.18-802 of the Act. 14.1.5 Either Member may cause the Company to be dissolved if the material requirements of Section 7.2.1(b) are not satisfied. 14.1.6 The Company shall be dissolved upon the abandonment of the Plan, unless both Members agree to continue the existence of the Company. 14.2 FINAL ACCOUNTING AND TAX RETURNS Upon the dissolution of the Company, a complete and accurate accounting shall be made by the Company's independent certified public accountants from the date of the last previous accounting to the date of dissolution, and all required tax returns shall be timely filed in connection therewith. -41- 14.3 LIQUIDATION Upon the dissolution of the Company, each Member shall appoint an individual to act as a liquidator to wind up the Company (and, if either Member fails to appoint such individual within sixty (60) days after the written request of the other Member, the individual that shall have been appointed by such other Member within such sixty (60) day period shall act as the liquidator) (the individuals so appointed shall be referred to collectively as the "Liquidator"). The Liquidator shall have full power and authority to take full account of the Company's assets and liabilities and to wind up and liquidate the affairs of the Company in an orderly and business-like manner as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof upon dissolution. The Company shall engage in no further business thereafter other than as necessary to operate on an interim basis, collect its receivables, pay its liabilities and liquidate its assets. 14.4 DISTRIBUTIONS IN LIQUIDATION 14.4.1 Upon dissolution of the Company and the liquidation of the assets of the Company pursuant to this Article 14, the Liquidator shall wind up the affairs of the Company and liquidate the assets as promptly as is consistent with obtaining fair value therefor and cause the remaining assets of the Company, including proceeds of sales or other dispositions in liquidation of assets, to be applied in accordance with the following priorities: 14.4.2 First, to payment of the debts and obligations of the Company to its creditors (other than a Member), including sales commissions and other expenses incident to any sale of the assets of the Company; 14.4.3 Second, to the establishment of such reserves as the Liquidator may deem reasonably necessary for any unliquidated contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company; 14.4.4 Third, to the payment in full of loans (including for this purpose, accrued interest thereon through the date of payment) to the Company by the Members, pro rata, according to the relative amount of such unpaid loans (including for this purpose, accrued interest thereon through the date of payment) and then to the payment in full of any other debts and obligations of the Company to its Members (e.g., under service agreements), pro rata, according to the relative amount of such debts and obligations; 14.4.5 Fourth, to the Members having positive Capital Accounts pro rata in accordance with their relative positive Capital Accounts (as determined after taking into account all Capital Account adjustments for the Company's Fiscal Year during which such liquidation occurs), until all such positive Capital Accounts are reduced to zero; 14.4.6 Fifth, among the Members in proportion to their respective Membership Interests; and, 14.4.7 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.4, upon liquidation of the Company, Company Discoveries shall be the joint property of each Member. Each Member shall have joint and non-exclusive rights to develop or sublicense the Company Discoveries; provided, however, that Techniclone shall have exclusive ownership, development and sublicense rights in the Company -42- Discoveries until Techniclone has received cumulative distributions equal to the Early Termination Preference; and provided further that the OXiGENE Contributed Technology shall be distributed in kind to OXiGENE and the Techniclone Contributed Technology shall be distributed in kind to Techniclone, each at the value set forth in Section 3.1. The reserves established pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 14.4(a) shall be paid over by the Liquidator to a bank or other financial institution to be held in escrow for the purpose of paying unliquidated, contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations, and, at the expiration of such period as the Liquidator deems advisable, such reserves shall be distributed to the Members or their assigns in the priority set forth in clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 14.4(a). Distributions to the Members pursuant to this Section 14.4(a) shall be made within the time period prescribed by Regulations Section 1.704-1 (b)(2)(ii)(b). 14.4.8 In the event the Liquidator determines that an immediate sale of part or all of the Company assets would cause undue loss to the Members, the Liquidator, in order to avoid such loss, may either (i) defer liquidation of any assets of the Company for a reasonable time, except those assets necessary to satisfy Company debts and obligations, or (ii) distribute the assets in kind to the Members. If any assets of the Company are to be distributed in kind, such assets shall be valued and shall be deemed sold at their fair market value and any gain or loss deemed realized shall be allocated to the Capital Accounts of the Members for purposes of applying this Section 14.4 as if such gain or loss had actually been fully realized. Any assets that are to be so distributed shall be distributed on the basis of the fair market value thereof and any Member entitled to an interest in such assets shall receive such interest therein as a tenant-in-common with all other Members so entitled. The fair market value of such assets shall be determined by an appraiser to be selected by the Liquidator or by agreement of all the Members. In the event of such distribution in kind, the distributee Member shall not thereafter sell or otherwise Transfer or dispose of any interest in any assets so distributed which it holds as a tenant-in-common without first offering such interest in writing to the other tenant-in-common upon the same terms and conditions and for the same price as such proposed sale or Transfer. The other tenant-in-common shall have thirty (30) days after the receipt of such offer within which to accept the same and shall have the right to acquire such interest. If the other tenant-in-common shall fail to accept such offer within such period of time, such distributee Member shall be free to sell the interest in such assets upon the terms and conditions described in the offer disclosed to the other tenants-in-common free of any further rights of first refusal. 14.4.9 During the period, if any, that Techniclone has exclusive ownership, development and sublicense rights to develop or sublicense the Company Discoveries pursuant to the first proviso of the second sentence of subsection 14.4(a)(vi), Techniclone will (i) promptly pay to OXiGENE, no less often than annually, the Early Termination Remainder, and (ii) provide OXiGENE with quarterly unaudited financial statements and annual audited financial statements. 14.5 DEFICIT CAPITAL ACCOUNTS Except as may otherwise be required by law, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, to the extent that any Member has a Deficit Capital Account balance upon dissolution of the Company, that balance shall not be an asset of the Company and that Member shall not be obligated to contribute any amount to the Company to bring the balance of that Member's Capital Account to zero. -43- 14.6 TERMINATION OF COMPANY AND AGREEMENT Upon the completion of the distributions in liquidation of the Company as provided in this Article 14, (a) the Liquidator shall take all actions as may be appropriate to finally dissolve and liquidate the Company and (b) this Agreement shall terminate. ARTICLE 15 ACCOUNTING AND REPORTS 15.1 BOOKS AND RECORDS 15.1.1 Procedures. The Board shall implement standard procedures with respect to accounting, financial reporting and management information, including, without limitation, statements reflecting Company distributions, earnings, Profits and Losses, residual value of Company Property and taxable income. 15.1.2 Records. At all times during the term of the Company, the Board shall keep or cause to be kept full and accurate books, records and accounts, which shall, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect each transaction of the Company. Each Member and its representatives shall have access to such books, records and documents during reasonable business hours and may inspect and make copies of any of them. The Board may delegate to a third party or Member the duty to maintain and oversee the preparation of such records and books of account. The Board shall maintain all such books and records for the six (6) most recent Fiscal Years or until such year is closed for tax audit purposes. 15.1.3 Audit of Company's Statements. The Company will engage and pay for an external accounting firm to audit its financial statements at least annually, which firm may, but need not be, the external accounting firm for one or both of the Members. Since it is anticipated that one Member, as chosen by the Board (the "Accounting Services Provider"), will provide accounting services to the Company, the Board is advised that, whenever practicable, it should appoint the primary external accounting firm which provides services to the Accounting Services Provider. The Member which is not the Accounting Services Provider shall have the right, during regular business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, to review the audited financial statements and the related work papers and findings of the external accounting firm supporting the financial statements or request another external accounting firm to perform such examination, the cost of which shall be borne by the party requesting the examination. 15.1.4 Examination of Member Transactions. Each Member shall keep comprehensive books and records relating to (i) such Member's reimbursements under this Agreement and (ii) any compensation or reimbursements under any agreement with the Company, on a full accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for the three (3) most recent Fiscal Years. Either Member, upon reasonable advance notice to the other Member, may examine or engage an external accounting firm to examine the accuracy of revenues, billings and supporting documentation of the other Member for services or payments to or from the Company during the prior three (3) Fiscal Years, including under the Sponsored Research Agreement, the OXiGENE License Agreement -44- and any other agreements involving the Company and the other Member. The Member requesting the review shall, for purposes of such review, utilize the other Member's regular outside certified public accounting firm. The cost of such examination shall be borne by the Member requesting the examination; however, in the event such examination reveals information that deviates by 5% or more from the information previously provided to the Member requesting the examination, the cost of the examination shall be borne by the other Member. 15.2 ACCOUNTING METHOD The books and records of the Company shall be kept in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis from year to year. 15.3 FISCAL YEAR Unless otherwise determined by unanimous vote of the Board, the Company shall use the calendar year as its fiscal year for all financial reporting and tax purposes (the "Fiscal Year"). 15.4 REPORTS; TAX RETURNS (a) Copies of all accounts, reports and other writings pertaining to the business of the Company furnished by a Member, the Company or the Company's accountants to any Member or regulatory agency shall contemporaneously be delivered to all Members. (b) Prior to March 15 of each year, the Board shall provide to the Members regular annual audited financial statements prepared by independent, nationally recognized certified public accountants as chosen under Section 15.l(c), which shall include a statement of profits and losses, changes in financial position and a balance sheet for the year then ended, as well as such other appropriate financial information reasonably requested by the Board or Members. (c) The Board shall cause to be prepared and filed, on the Company's behalf and at the Company's expense, all federal, state and other tax returns required to be filed, and shall submit the same to the Members for review and approval not less than thirty (30) days prior to the respective due dates for such returns (including any extensions thereof), but, with respect to the Company's United States federal income tax information return, in no event later than May 15 of each year. Apportionment data for state returns will be provided by June 1 of each year. (d) Within thirty (30) days of the end of each calendar month (or sooner if available) the Company shall provide unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP to each Member . (e) Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter, the Company shall provide unaudited quarterly financial statements showing the quarterly and annual financial results of the Company and comparing such financial results to the projections of income and expenses in the Approved Budget. -45- 15.5 REQUIRED GOVERNMENTAL FILINGS The Board shall cause the Company to file, on or before the dates the same may be due, giving effect to extensions obtained, all reports, returns and applications that may be required by any governmental or quasi-governmental body having jurisdiction.
