INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
This Agreement
is made as of
the day
of February 2008, by and between Millennium
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Corporation),
and (the
"Indemnitee"), a director or officer of the Corporation.
WHEREAS, it is
essential to the Corporation to retain and attract as directors and
officers the most capable persons available, and
WHEREAS, the
substantial increase in corporate litigation subjects directors and
officers to expensive litigation risks at the same time that the
availability of directors' and officers' liability insurance has
been severely limited, and
WHEREAS, it is
now and has always been the express policy of the Corporation to
indemnify its directors and officers, and
WHEREAS, the
Indemnitee does not regard the protection available under the
Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and insurance as
adequate in the present circumstances, and may not be willing to
serve or continue to serve as a director or officer without
adequate protection, and
WHEREAS, the
Corporation desires the Indemnitee to serve, or continue to serve,
as a director or officer of the Corporation.
NOW THEREFORE,
the Corporation and the Indemnitee do hereby agree as
follows:
1.
Agreement to
Serve. The
Indemnitee agrees to serve or continue to serve as a director or
officer of the Corporation for so long as the Indemnitee is duly
elected or appointed or until such time as the Indemnitee tenders a
resignation in writing.
2.
Definitions.
As used in this
Agreement:
-
(a) The
term "Proceeding" shall include any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit, arbitration, alternative dispute resolution
proceeding, administrative hearing or other proceeding, whether
brought by or in the right of the Corporation or otherwise and
whether of a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
nature, and any appeal therefrom.
(b) The
term "Board" means the Board of Directors of the
Corporation.
(c) The
term "Change in Control" shall mean the occurrence of any of the
below events:
-
(i) when

1934, as amended) acquires beneficial ownership of the
Corporation's capital stock equal to 50% or more of either
(x) the then-outstanding shares of the Corporation's common
stock or (y) the combined voting power of the Corporation's
then-outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the
election of directors;
(ii) upon
the consummation of (x) a merger, consolidation,
reorganization, recapitalization or share exchange involving the
Corporation or a sale or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Corporation, if the Corporation's
stockholders immediately prior to such event do not, immediately
after such event, own more than 50% of the outstanding shares of
common stock and of the combined voting power entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors of the resulting or
acquiring corporation (which shall include, without limitation, a
corporation which as a result of such event owns the Corporation or

(x) who was a member of the Board on the date this agreement

election or whose election to the Board was recommended or endorsed
by at least a majority of the directors who were Continuing
Directors at the time of such nomination or election. But, any

of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the
election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened
solicitation of proxies or consents, by or on behalf of a person
other than the Board, is excluded from clause (iii)(y)
above
(d) The
term "Corporate Status" shall mean the status of a person who is or
was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the
Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the

to "other enterprise" shall include employee benefit plans;
references to "fines" shall include any excise tax assessed with
respect to any employee benefit plan; references to "serving at the
request of the Corporation" shall include any service as a
director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation which
imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer,
employee, or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its
participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good
faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the
interests of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee
benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed
to the best interests of the Corporation" as referred to in this
Agreement.
3.
Indemnity of
Indemnitee. Subject to Sections 6, 7 and 9,
the Corporation shall indemnify the Indemnitee in connection with
any Proceeding as to which the Indemnitee is, was or is threatened
to be made a party (or is otherwise involved) by reason of the
Indemnitee's Corporate Status, to the fullest extent permitted by
law (as such may be amended from time to time). In furtherance of
the foregoing and without limiting the generality
thereof:
3
-
party to or threatened
to be made a party to or otherwise involved in any Proceeding
(other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to
procure a judgment in its favor or a Proceeding referred to in
Section 6) by reason of the Indemnitee's Corporate Status or
by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in
connection therewith, against all Expenses, judgments, fines,
penalties and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in connection with such
Proceeding, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner
which the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed
to, the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any
criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or
her conduct was unlawful.
(b)
Indemnification in
Proceedings by or in the Right of the Corporation.
The Corporation shall
indemnify the Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 3(b) if the Indemnitee was or is a party to or
threatened to be made a party to or otherwise involved in any
Proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a
judgment in its favor by reason of the Indemnitee's Corporate
Status or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or
omitted in connection therewith, against all Expenses and, to the
extent permitted by law, amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in connection
with such Proceeding, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in
a manner which the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not
opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, except that, if
applicable law so provides, no indemnification shall be made under
this Section 3(b) in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as
to which the Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to
the Corporation, unless, and only to the extent, that the Court of
Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was
brought shall determine upon application that, despite the
adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances
of the case, the Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such Expenses as the Court of Chancery or such other
court shall deem proper.
4.
Indemnification of
Expenses of Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, to the extent that the Indemnitee has been
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any
Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein
(other than a Proceeding referred to in Section 6), the
Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and
reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in connection
therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, if any Proceeding or any
claim, issue or matter therein is disposed of, on the merits or
otherwise (including a disposition without prejudice), without
(i) the disposition being adverse to the Indemnitee,
(ii) an adjudication that the Indemnitee was liable to the
Corporation, (iii) a plea of guilty or nolo contendere by the Indemnitee,
(iv) an adjudication that the Indemnitee did not act in good
faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and
(v) with respect to any criminal proceeding, an adjudication
that the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his or her
conduct was unlawful, the Indemnitee shall be considered for the
purposes hereof to have been wholly successful with respect
thereto.
5.
Indemnification for
Expenses of a Witness. To the extent that the Indemnitee is,
by reason of the Indemnitee's Corporate Status, a witness in any
Proceeding to which the Indemnitee is not a party, the Indemnitee
shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably
incurred by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in connection
therewith.
6.
Exceptions to Right of
Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, except as set forth in Section 10,
the Corporation shall not indemnify the Indemnitee in connection
with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the Indemnitee
unless (a) the initiation thereof was approved by the Board or
(b) the Proceeding was commenced following a Change in
Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, the Corporation shall not indemnify the Indemnitee to
the extent the Indemnitee is reimbursed from the proceeds
