Adopted _______________, 2000
Approved By Shareholders _______________, 20__

Termination Date: March __, 2010
1. Purposes.
(a) Eligible Option Recipients. The persons eligible to receive Options
are the Non-Employee Directors of the Company.

which Non-Employee Directors may be given an opportunity to benefit from
increases in value of the Common Stock through the granting of Nonstatutory
Stock Options.
(c) General Purpose. The Company, by means of the Plan, seeks to retain
the services of its Non-Employee Directors, to secure and retain the services of
new Non-Employee Directors and to provide incentives for such persons to exert
maximum efforts for the success of the Company and its Affiliates.
2. Definitions.
(a) "Affiliate" means any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of
the Company, whether now or hereafter existing, as those terms are defined in
Sections 424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Code.
(b) "Annual Grant" means an Option granted annually to all Non-Employee
Directors who meet the specified criteria specified in subsection 6(b) of the
Plan.
(c) "Annual Meeting" means the annual meeting of the stockholders of the
Company.
(d) "Board" means the Board of Directors of the Company.
(e) "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

the Company or an Affiliate to render consulting or advisory services and who is

of an Affiliate. However, the
1.
term "Consultant" shall not include either Directors of the Company who are not
compensated by the Company for their services as Directors or Directors of the
Company who are merely paid a director's fee by the Company for their services
as Directors.
(i) "Continuous Service" means that the Optionholder's service with the
Company or an Affiliate, whether as an Employee, Director or Consultant, is not
interrupted or terminated. The Optionholder's Continuous Service shall not be
deemed to have terminated merely because of a change in the capacity in which
the Optionholder renders service to the Company or an Affiliate as an Employee,
Consultant or Director or a change in the entity for which the Optionholder
renders such service, provided that there is no interruption or termination of
the Optionholder's Continuous Service. For example, a change in status from a
Non-Employee Director of the Company to a Consultant of an Affiliate or an
Employee of the Company will not constitute an interruption of Continuous
Service. The Board or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, in that
party's sole discretion, may determine whether Continuous Service shall be
considered interrupted in the case of any leave of absence approved by that
party, including sick leave, military leave or any other personal leave.

(k) "Disability" means the permanent and total disability of a person
within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code.
(l) "Employee" means any person employed by the Company or an Affiliate.
Mere service as a Director or payment of a director's fee by the Company or an
Affiliate shall not be sufficient to constitute "employment" by the Company or
an Affiliate.
(m) "Exchange Act" means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
(n) "Fair Market Value" means, as of any date, the value of the Common
Stock determined as follows:
(i) If the Common Stock is listed on any established stock exchange
or traded on the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the Fair
Market Value of a share of Common Stock shall be the closing sales price for
such stock (or the closing bid, if no sales were reported) as quoted on such
exchange or market (or the exchange or market with the greatest volume of
trading in the Common Stock) on the last market trading day prior to the day of
determination, as reported in The Wall Street Journal or such other source as
the Board deems reliable.
(ii) In the absence of such markets for the Common Stock, the Fair
Market Value shall be determined in good faith by the Board.

Board may not delegate administration of the Plan to a committee.
(b) Powers of Board. The Board shall have the power, subject to, and
within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:
(i) To determine the provisions of each Option to the extent not
specified in the Plan.
(ii) To construe and interpret the Plan and Options granted under
it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its

manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan
fully effective.
(iii) To amend the Plan or an Option as provided in Section 12.

issued pursuant to Options shall not exceed in the aggregate three hundred
thousand (300,000) shares of Common Stock.
(B) Reversion of Shares to the Share Reserve. If any Option shall for any
reason expire or otherwise terminate, in whole or in part, without having
been exercised in full, the shares of Common Stock not acquired under such
Option shall revert to and again become available for issuance under the
Plan.
(C) Source of Shares. The shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan may be
unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise.
5. Eligibility.
The Options as set forth in section 6 automatically shall be granted under
the Plan to all Non-Employee Directors.
6. Non-Discretionary Grants.
(a) Initial Grants. Without any further action of the Board, each Non-
Employee Director shall be granted an Initial Grant as follows:
(i) On the IPO Date, each person who is then a Non-Employee
Director automatically shall be granted an Initial Grant to purchase twenty
thousand (20,000) shares of Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth
herein.
(ii) After the IPO Date, each person who is elected or appointed for
the first time to be a Non-Employee Director automatically shall, upon the date
of his or her initial election or appointment to be a Non-Employee Director by
the Board or stockholders of the Company, be granted an Initial Grant to
purchase twenty thousand (20,000) shares of Common Stock on the terms and
conditions set forth herein.
(b) Annual Grants. Without any further action of the Board, on the day
following each Annual Meeting commencing with the first Annual Meeting following
the IPO Date, each person who is then a Non-Employee Director automatically
shall be granted an Annual Grant to purchase five thousand (5,000) shares of
Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth herein; provided, however,
that if the person has not been serving as a Non-Employee Director for the

prior to the date of grant during which such person did not serve as a Non-
Employee Director.
4.
7. Option Provisions.
Each Option shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
conditions as required by the Plan. Each Option shall contain such additional
terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as the Board shall deem
appropriate. Each Option shall include (through incorporation of provisions
hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the substance of each of the
following provisions:
(a) Term. No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10)
years from the date it was granted.
(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price of each Option shall be one
hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject to the
Option on the date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an
Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set forth in the
preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or
substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section
424(a) of the Code.
(c) Consideration. The purchase price of stock acquired pursuant to an
Option may be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and
regulations, in any combination of the following methods:
(i) By cash or check.
(ii) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, by delivery of
already-owned shares of Common Stock either that the Optionholder has held for
the period required to avoid a charge to the Company's reported earnings
(generally six months) or that the Optionholder did not acquire, directly or
indirectly from the Company, that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims,
encumbrances or security interests, and that are valued at Fair Market Value on
the date of exercise. "Delivery" for these purposes shall include delivery to
the Company of the Optionholder's attestation of ownership of such shares of
Common Stock in a form approved by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Optionholder may not exercise the Option by tender to the Company of Common
Stock to the extent such tender would violate the provisions of any law,
regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company's stock.
(iii) Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is
publicly traded and quoted regularly in The Wall Street Journal, pursuant to a
program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board
that, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the receipt of
cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay
the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.
(d) Transferability. Each Option shall be transferable by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution and, during the lifetime of the Optionholder,
only as described in the Option Agreement. However, the Optionholder may, by
delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company,
designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder,
shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.
5.
(e) Exercise Schedule. The Option shall be exercisable as the shares of
Common Stock subject to the Option vest.
(f) Vesting Schedule. Options shall vest as follows: (i) one fourth
(1/4th) of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option shall vest one year
after the date of the grant of the Option, and (ii) one forty-eighth (1/48th) of
the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option shall vest monthly thereafter
over a period of three (3) years.
(g) Termination of Continuous Service. In the event an Optionholder's
Continuous Service terminates (other than upon the Optionholder's death or
Disability), the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that
the Optionholder was entitled to exercise it as of the date of termination) but
only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date three (3)
months following the termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service or
(ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option
Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her
Option within the time specified in the Option Agreement, the Option shall
terminate.
(h) Extension of Termination Date. If the exercise of the Option following
the termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service (other than upon the
Optionholder's death or Disability) would be prohibited at any time solely
because the issuance of shares would violate the registration requirements under
the Securities Act, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the
expiration of the term of the Option set forth in subsection 7(a) or (ii) the
expiration of a period of three (3) months after the termination of the
Optionholder's Continuous Service during which the exercise of the Option would
not be in violation of such registration requirements.
(i) Disability of Optionholder. In the event an Optionholder's Continuous
Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's Disability, the
Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder
was entitled to exercise it as of the date of termination), but only within such
period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date twelve (12) months
following such termination or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as
set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does
not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option
shall terminate.
(j) Death of Optionholder. In the event (i) an Optionholder's Continuous
Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder's death or (ii) the
Optionholder dies within the three-month period after the termination of the
Optionholder's Continuous Service for a reason other than death, then the Option
may be exercised (to the extent the Optionholder was entitled to exercise the
Option as of the date of death) by the Optionholder's estate, by a person who
acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance or by a
person designated to exercise the Option upon the Optionholder's death, but only
within the period ending on the earlier of (1) the date eighteen (18) months
following the date of death or (2) the expiration of the term of such Option as
set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after death, the Option is not exercised
within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.
6.
8. Covenants of the Company.
(a) Availability of Shares. During the terms of the Options, the Company
shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock required
to satisfy such Options.
(b) Securities Law Compliance. The Company shall seek to obtain from each
regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority
as may be required to grant Options and to issue and sell shares of Common Stock
upon exercise of the Options; provided, however, that this undertaking shall not
require the Company to register under the Securities Act the Plan, any Option or
any stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such Option. If, after reasonable
efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such regulatory commission or
agency the authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the
lawful issuance and sale of stock under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved
from any liability for failure to issue and sell stock upon exercise of such
Options unless and until such authority is obtained.
9. Use of Proceeds from Stock.
Proceeds from the sale of stock pursuant to Options shall constitute
general funds of the Company.
10. Miscellaneous.
(a) Shareholder Rights. No Optionholder shall be deemed to be the holder
of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares subject
to such Option unless and until such Optionholder has satisfied all requirements
for exercise of the Option pursuant to its terms.
(b) No Service Rights. Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed or
Option granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Optionholder any right to
continue to serve the Company as a Non-Employee Director or shall affect the
right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate (i) the employment of an
Employee with or without notice and with or without cause, (ii) the service of a
Consultant pursuant to the terms of such Consultant's agreement with the Company
or an Affiliate or (iii) the service of a Director pursuant to the Bylaws of the
Company or an Affiliate, and any applicable provisions of the corporate law of
the state in which the Company or the Affiliate is incorporated, as the case may
be.
(c) Investment Assurances. The Company may require an Optionholder, as a
condition of exercising or acquiring stock under any Option, (i) to give written
assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the Optionholder's knowledge and
experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser
representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is knowledgeable and
experienced in financial and business matters and that he or she is capable of
evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits and
risks of exercising the Option; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory
to the Company stating that the Optionholder is acquiring the stock subject to
the Option for the Optionholder's own account and not with any present intention
of selling or otherwise distributing the stock. The foregoing requirements, and
any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if
(iii) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise or acquisition of stock under
the
7.
Option has been registered under a then currently effective registration
statement under the Securities Act or (iv) as to any particular requirement, a
determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not
be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws. The
Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on stock
certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or
appropriate in order to comply with applicable securities laws, including, but
not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the stock.
(d) Withholding Obligations. The Optionholder may satisfy any federal,
state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or
acquisition of stock under an Option by any of the following means (in addition
to the Company's right to withhold from any compensation paid to the
Optionholder by the Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a
cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold shares from the shares of
the Common Stock otherwise issuable to the Optionholder as a result of the
exercise or acquisition of stock under the Option, provided, however, that no
shares of Common Stock are withheld with a value exceeding the minimum amount of
tax required to be withheld by law; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and
unencumbered shares of the Common Stock.
11. Adjustments upon Changes in Stock.
(a) Capitalization Adjustments. If any change is made in the stock subject
to the Plan, or subject to any Option, without the receipt of consideration by
the Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization,
reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock
split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change
in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of
consideration by the Company), the Plan will be appropriately adjusted in the
class(es) and maximum number of securities subject both to the Plan pursuant to
subsection 4(a) and to the nondiscretionary Options specified in Section 5, and
the outstanding Options will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and
number of securities and price per share of stock subject to such outstanding
Options. The Board shall make such adjustments, and its determination shall be
final, binding and conclusive. (The conversion of any convertible securities of
the Company shall not be treated as a transaction "without receipt of
consideration" by the Company.)
(b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of a dissolution or
liquidation of the Company, then all outstanding Options shall terminate
immediately prior to such event.
(c) Change in Control. In the event of (i) a sale, lease or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the securities or assets of the
Company, (ii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the
surviving corporation or (iii) a reverse merger in which the Company is the
surviving corporation but the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property,
whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, then any surviving
corporation or acquiring corporation may assume any Options outstanding under
the Plan or substitute similar Options (including an option to acquire the same
consideration paid to the stockholders in the transaction described in this
subsection 11(c)) for those outstanding under the Plan. In the event any
surviving corporation or acquiring corporation does not assume such Options or
substitute similar Options
8.
for those outstanding under the Plan, then with respect to Options held by
Optionholders whose Continuous Service has not terminated, the vesting of such
Options (and the time during which such Options may be exercised) shall be
accelerated in full, and the Options shall terminate if not exercised at or
prior to such event. With respect to any other Options outstanding under the
Plan, such Options shall terminate if not exercised prior to such event.
12. Amendment of the Plan and Options.
(a) Amendment of Plan. The Board at any time, and from time to time, may
amend the Plan. However, except as provided in Section 11 relating to
adjustments upon changes in stock, no amendment shall be effective unless
approved by the stockholders of the Company to the extent stockholder approval
is necessary to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or any Nasdaq or
securities exchange listing requirements.
(b) Shareholder Approval. The Board may, in its sole discretion, submit
any other amendment to the Plan for stockholder approval.
(c) No Impairment of Rights. Rights under any Option granted before
amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan unless
(i) the Company requests the consent of the Optionholder and (ii) the
Optionholder consents in writing.
(d) Amendment of Options. The Board at any time, and from time to time,
may amend the terms of any one or more Options; provided, however, that the
rights under any Option shall not be impaired by any such amendment unless (i)
the Company requests the consent of the Optionholder and (ii) the Optionholder
consents in writing.
13. Termination or Suspension of the Plan.
(a) Plan Term. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time.
Unless sooner terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the day before the tenth
(10th) anniversary of its adoption by the Board. No Options may be granted under
the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.
(b) No Impairment of Rights. Suspension or termination of the Plan shall
not impair rights and obligations under any Option granted while the Plan is in
effect except with the written consent of the Optionholder.
14. Effective Date of Plan.
The Plan shall become effective on the IPO Date, but no Option shall be
exercised unless and until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the
Company, which approval shall be within twelve (12) months before or after the
date the Plan is adopted by the Board.
15. Choice of Law.
All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of
this Plan shall be governed by the law of the State of Delaware, without regard
to such state's conflict of laws rules.

TELIK, INC.
NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION
(2000 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS' STOCK OPTION PLAN)
__________, Optionholder:
Telik, Inc. (the "Company"), pursuant to its 2000 Non-Employee Directors'
Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), has on __________, 20__ granted to you, the
optionholder named above, an option to purchase shares of the common stock of
the Company ("Common Stock"). This option is not intended to qualify and will
not be treated as an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
The grant hereunder is in connection with and in furtherance of the
Company's compensatory benefit plan for participation of the Company's Non-
Employee Directors (as defined in the Plan).
The details of your option are as follows:
1. The total number of shares of Common Stock subject to this option is
__________ (__________). Subject to the limitations contained herein, this
option shall be exercisable in accordance with the Plan.
2. The exercise price of this option is __________ ($__________) per
share, being the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the Common Stock
on the date of grant of this option.
3. (a) This option may be exercised, to the extent specified in the
Plan, by delivering a notice of exercise (in a form designated by the Company)
together with the exercise price to the Secretary of the Company, or to such
other person as the Company may designate, during regular business hours,
together with such additional documents as the Company may then require. This
option may not be exercised for any number of shares which would require the
issuance of anything other than whole shares.
(b) By exercising this option you agree that the Company may require
you to enter an arrangement providing for the cash payment by you to the Company
of any tax withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of the
exercise of this option or the lapse of any substantial risk of forfeiture to
which the shares are subject at the time of exercise.
(c) This option is not transferable, except (i) by will or by the laws
of descent and distribution, (ii) with the prior written approval of the
Company, by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust, in a form
accepted by the Company, in which the option is to be passed to beneficiaries
upon the death of the trustor (settlor) and (iii) with the prior written
approval of the Company, by gift, in a form accepted by the Company, to your
"immediate family" as that term is defined in 17 C.F.R. 240.16a-1(e). The term
"immediate family" is
1.
defined in 17 C.F.R. 240.16a-1(e) to mean any child, stepchild, grandchild,
parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law,
son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, and includes
adoptive relationships. Your option is exercisable during your life only by you
or a transferee satisfying the above-stated conditions. The right of a
transferee to exercise the transferred portion of your option after termination
of your Continuous Service shall terminate in accordance with your right to
exercise your option as specified in your option. In the event that your
Continuous Service terminates due to your death, your transferee will be treated
as a person who acquired the right to exercise your option by bequest or
inheritance. In addition to the foregoing, the Company may require, as a
condition of the transfer of your option to a trust or by gift, that your
transferee enter into an option transfer agreement provided by, or acceptable
to, the Company. The terms of your option shall be binding upon your
transferees, executors, administrators, heirs, successors, and assigns.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a
form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party who, in the
event of your death, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise your option.
4. Any notices provided for in this option or the Plan shall be given in
writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of
notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the
United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the address specified
below or at such other address as you hereafter designate by written notice to
the Company.
5. This option is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, a copy of
which is attached hereto, and its provisions are hereby made a part of this
option, including without limitation the provisions of Section 7 of the Plan
relating to option provisions, and is further subject to all interpretations,
amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and
adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the
provisions of this option and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan
shall control.
Dated the __________ day of __________, 20__.
