This is a news release I have just picked up:
Lilly (LLY), TheraTech in collaborative pact

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan 14 (Reuter) - Eli Lilly and Co and TheraTech Inc (THRT) said Tuesday
they entered a multi-product collaborative agreement to develop and market peptide drugs using
TheraTech's patented oral transmucosal delivery system.

Lilly said its peptide drugs are at various stages of preclinical and clinical development and a
majority are in the endocrine area. Under the agreement, TheraTech will receive initial fees, funding
for research, milestone payments and royalties on potential product sales. Lilly will receive
exclusive commercialization rights for the oral transmucosal delivery of certain peptide drugs.

The TheraTech transmucosal delivery system is a small, adhesive-backed tablet that is placed in
the mouth between the lip and gum. As it slowly dissolves, it delivers peptide drugs directly into a
patient's bloodstream through the mucous membrane of the mouth.

TheraTech, headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, develops products based on controlled-release
drug delivery technologies.

Lilly is a global research-based pharmaceutical corporation.
