WHEREAS, the Parties desire to amend certain terms of the Development Agreement
respecting the timing of Janssen's right to exercise its option to license MTI
technology and, further, respecting, certain milestone dates;

NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree to amend the Development Agreement as follows:

(A)  Section 4(A) of the Development Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety
     to read as follows:

     The initial term of this Agreement shall commence upon the date first above
     written and continue thereafter until the earlier of (i) the completion of
     the Development Program at the moment of finalization of the IRF, which is
     expected during the [                          ], or (ii) [
     ], unless earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4
     or according to the terms of Section 16 below. However, in the event that
     the IRF has not been completed by [                    ], if Janssen can
     show due diligence, this Agreement shall not terminate and will be extended
     for such period as Janssen requires to finalize the IRF, provided that
     during such extension Janssen continues to show due diligence. Due
     diligence, amongst other factors, shall mean the timely filing of required
     regulatory applications, including, without limitation, a CTX (clinical
     trial exemption certificate) and/or IND, and continuing to fund the
     Development Program in a commercially reasonable manner.

(B)  Section 6(A) of the Development Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety
     to read as follows:

     Medisorb hereby grants to Janssen an option, exercisable at any time during
     the term of this Agreement and continuing for a period of thirty (30) days
     thereafter to enter into the License Agreements (i.e., the first a
     worldwide license, excluding the United States, and the second a license
     encompassing only the United States) attached hereto as Exhibits B & C,
     respectively.

All capitalized terms used in this First Amendment shall have the same meanings
as defined in the Development Agreement.  Other than the foregoing, all other
terms of the Development Agreement remain in full force and effect.
