Our license agreement dated December 18, 2007, effective February 4, 2008 (the Agreement)
Dear Steve,
It is recognized that Idera has met its obligations of delivering [**] Follow-on Compounds in
accordance with Section 3.6 of the Agreement. Merck is actively characterizing these Follow-on
Compounds toward a goal of selecting [**] for possible development. As this characterization is
currently ongoing, Merck requests that Idera allow Merck to extend the period of time for selecting
the Follow-on Compounds such that Mercks right to make a selection pursuant to Section 3.6 of the
Agreement would expire on [**]. This addition time will enable Merck to further characterize the
Follow-on Compounds and make a more informed decision in the selection process based on additional
preclinical experiments. During this additional time period, Ideras role in Mercks selection
process is expected to be passive and no additional resources are expected to be provided by Idera
under the terms of the Agreement.
If you are in agreement with the above please indicate so by returning the attached duplicate of
this letter duly signed.
Very truly yours,
Merck KGaA
