Henry,

If you don't mind, I have some questions here:

I had been collaborating with Ron Evans and when CEO Howard Birndorf went to talk to him about joining Progenx's scientific advisory board, it became clear that Ron was interested in comercially developing his IR technology. Progenx exclusively licensed the technology from Salk and then switch from a cancer diagnositic company to a cancer therapeutics company and changed its name to Ligand.

-- Is this correct: Progenx licensed Evan's IR technology from Salk? (line 3 and 4 from bottom)

-- Where was Evans' academic position at that time? Was your research with him work joint with Salk? Or at Progenx? Is Evans currently an active academic?

-- When were Progenx and, then, Ligand formed?

Thank you.

Nancy
