Item 5. Other Events


         On February 19, 1999, NeoPharm, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a
license agreement (the "License Agreement") with Pharmacia & Upjohn Company
("P&U") with respect to the Company's Liposomal Encapsulated Paclitaxel ("LEP")
and Liposomal Encapsulated Doxorubicin ("LED"), two of the Company's cancer
products.  Under the terms of License Agreement, the Company received an
up-front payment upon execution of the License Agreement and will receive
milestone payments as clinical progress occurs under the License Agreement.  The
Company will also receive royalties on overseas sales and a co-promotion profit
split on sales in the United States.  Pursuant to the License Agreement,
Pharmacia and Upjohn agreed to assume all further responsibility for, and the
costs associated with, the further development and testing of LED and LEP and
the obtaining of all regulatory approvals.

         The amount of the up-front licensing fee paid by Pharmacia and Upjohn
pursuant to the License Agreement was $9,000,000.  In addition, assuming that
all of the milestone goals set forth in the License Agreement were to be
attained by the parties, the Company would be eligible to receive an additional
$52,000,000 in additional milestone payments.  Finally, with respect to the LED
product, if the LED product were to be approved for commercial sale and
thereafter marketed, the Company would receive a royalty payment for sales
outside of the U.S. for the first seven years after commercial sale at a rate of
8%, declining to 5% for the eighth through tenth years of such commercial sales.
With respect to the LEP product, the Company is entitled to receive a royalty of
12.5% for LED products sold outside of the United States for the valid life of
an enforceable NeoPharm patent, determined on a country-by-country basis.  With
respect to sales of both LEP and LED products in the United States, the Company
is permitted to elect, in lieu of royalty payments for U.S. sales, to co-promote
the products within the United States.  Under the terms of the co-promotion, the
Company's participation in net profits is to be in proportion to the Company's
monetary contribution to the promotion of each product in the United States, but
in no event shall the Company's share of profits exceed 37.5% of total net
profits.  In addition, the Company's right to co-promote is contingent upon the
Company reimbursing Pharmacia & Upjohn for an amount equal to the amount of the
Company's net profit percentage multiplied by the amount expended by Pharmacia &
Upjohn in the development costs for the products in the United States (which may
not exceed 60 percent of Pharmacia & Upjohn's total development costs throughout
the world).  If the Company does not elect to co-promote the product within the
U.S., then the Company would receive a flat royalty with respect to LED equal to
10% of net sales for the first ten years of sales in the United States, and with
respect to LEP, a royalty equal to 12.5% of net sales for the period in which
Pharmacia & Upjohn has exclusivity to LEP product.  Because of the uncertainty
surrounding the ability of the Company to attain the milestones and obtain FDA
approval for the product, and the uncertainty that the product would be accepted
by the medical community, it is not possible to project with any degree of
certainty what the potential revenues (other than the milestone payments) under
the contract would be.

         In connection with the License Agreement, the Company has also entered
into a Stock Purchase Agreement with P&U providing for P&U's purchase of
$8,000,000 of the Company's common stock based on 110% of the average closing
price per share of the Company's common stock as reported on the American Stock
Exchange during the 60-day period preceding the date upon which the Company
shall receive notification from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration ("FDA") that
the Company's IND filings for LED and LEP have been effectively transferred to
P&U.  The Company anticipates that the investigatory new drug applications,
which have been submitted for FDA approval, will be transferred promptly after
FDA approval, and FDA approval is expected early in the third quarter of 1999.
The sale of the shares will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act"), and will be made in reliance on Section 4(2)
of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D. In addition, P & U and the
Company will enter into a registration rights agreement providing P & U with
certain demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares
acquired from the Company.
