Effective August 6, 2007, Urigen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the parties agreed to remove the right of the Company to terminate the Agreement after two years, thus granting to Acacia exclusive license rights for the life of certain patents of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Agreement may be otherwise terminated as follows: (A) the later of either (i) the expiration date of the patents subject to the license or (ii) the conclusion of APAC’s licensing and enforcement of the patents subject to the license; (B) in the event APAC files for bankruptcy which is not dismissed within 90 days; (C) upon written notice by either party if the other party breaches any material representation, warranty or agreement and fails to cure such breach within 90 days; and (C) by either party upon 90 days written notice if APAC determines the licensing or enforcement of the patents is not commercially reasonable or practicable.
