[_____________], 2007

Dear Stockholder:

We are pleased to invite you to a Special Meeting of the Stockholders of Gene Logic Inc. The meeting will be held on [___________], [_________], 2007 at [__:__] Eastern Time at the Company's offices located at 50 West Watkins Mill Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878.

Enclosed for your review are a number of important items, including a notice of matters to be voted on at the meeting, our Proxy Statement, and a proxy card.

At the meeting you are being asked to vote on a proposal to sell the assets of the Company's Genomics Business associated with the business of developing, operating and licensing databases of genomic and toxicogenomic data and related software and providing genomic and genetic data generation and analysis services and other related services (the "Genomics Assets") to Ocimum Biosolutions, Inc. ("Ocimum"), a Delaware corporation that is a subsidiary of Ocimum Biosolutions Limited ("Ocimum India"), or its affiliate. In addition to the Genomics Assets, the Genomics Business includes assets associated with the research, development and commercialization of diagnostic, prognostic and monitoring tests for human and animal health care (the "Molecular Diagnostics Assets"), none of which are included in the sale to Ocimum or its affiliate. The Board of Directors has unanimously approved and recommends that the stockholders approve the sale of the Genomics Assets substantially upon the terms set forth in the asset purchase agreement dated as of October 14, 2007 by and between Gene Logic Inc., Ocimum and Ocimum India (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"), a copy of which is attached to the Proxy Statement as Appendix A.

In the event, among others, that the Asset Purchase Agreement terminates for any reason, the Company is also seeking stockholder approval for the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets, comprising the Genomics Assets and the Molecular Diagnostics Assets, to one or more third parties on or before June 30, 2008 for a price not less than $6,000,000 and upon such terms as may be approved by the Board of Directors. The stockholders are also being asked to consider and act upon a proposal to amend the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to change the name of the Company to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Therefore, you are being asked to vote on the following matters:

o To approve the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate substantially upon the terms as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement;

o In the event, among others, that the Asset Purchase Agreement terminates for any reason, to approve the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties other than Ocimum on or before June 30, 2008 at a price not less than $6,000,000 and upon such terms as may be approved by the Board of Directors; and

o To approve an amendment of the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc.

The Board of Directors has determined that the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate, the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties other than Ocimum in the event, among others, that the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated, and the amendment of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. are in the best interest of the stockholders and therefore recommends that you vote "FOR" the each of the sales and the name change.

The proposed sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate, the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more other third parties in the event, among others, that the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated, and the amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. are important decisions for the Company and its stockholders. The Genomics Assets (or all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets) cannot be sold unless the sale to Ocimum or its affiliate substantially upon the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement and, in the event, among others, that the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated for any reason, the sale to one or more third parties on such terms as the Board of Directors may approve, respectively, are approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Gene Logic Inc. Common Stock. Similarly, the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation cannot be amended to change the name of the Company to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Gene Logic Inc. Common Stock. Whether or not you plan to attend the meeting, please authorize your proxy in one of three ways: via Internet, telephone or mail. Instructions regarding authorizing your proxy by Internet and telephone are included on the proxy card. If you choose to authorize your proxy by mail, please mark, sign and date the proxy card and return it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. Your proxy may be revoked at any time before it is exercised as explained in the Proxy Statement. Failure to vote either by proxy or in person at the meeting will have the effect of a vote "AGAINST" the sale of the Genomics Assets, the sale of the Genomics Business assets and the change of the Company's name. Your prompt cooperation will be greatly appreciated.

If you plan to attend the meeting, please bring photo identification for admission. Also, if your shares are held in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee, please bring with you a proxy, letter or account statement (or copy thereof) from your broker, bank or nominee confirming your beneficial ownership of Gene Logic Common Stock so that you can be admitted to the meeting. Also, if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the meeting, you must obtain from the record holder a proxy issued in your name.

Sincerely,

SUMMARY TERM SHEET

This summary highlights certain material terms of the proposed sale to Ocimum Biolsolutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Ocimum") or its affiliate of assets of our Genomics Business associated with our business of developing, operating and licensing databases of genomic and toxicogenomic data and related software and providing genomic and genetic data generation and analysis services and other related services (the "Genomics Assets") substantially upon the terms set forth in an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") approved by the Board of Directors on October 9, 2007 and dated as of October 14, 2007 by and between us, Ocimum and Ocimum Biosolutions Limited ("Ocimum India"). Ocimum is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ocimum Biosolutions Limited. For your convenience, we have set forth below a summary of certain information relating to the proposed transaction that is contained under Proposal No. 1 in this Proxy Statement. This summary does not contain all of the information that you may consider to be important in determining how to vote on the proposed transaction. To understand the proposed transaction fully and for a more complete description of the terms of the transaction, you should carefully read this entire Proxy Statement and the Asset Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A. We have included page references in this summary to direct you to a more complete discussion in the Proxy Statement.

General (See page 16)

You are being asked to ratify and approve the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate for $7,000,000 in cash at closing, subject to possible adjustment, the issuance of a $3,000,000 promissory note, the assumption by Ocimum of certain liabilities and ongoing contractual obligations and the granting by Ocimum of certain licenses in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

Because the Genomics Assets may be deemed to represent substantially all of the Company's assets under Delaware law, the Board of Directors has determined to seek the approval of our stockholders.

If this proposal is approved and the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate is completed, we intend to apply the net proceeds of the asset sale to the development and operation of our Drug Repositioning Business.

Background of and Reasons for the Sale (See page 16)

In June 2006, as part of a comprehensive strategic review of our business with the assistance of a strategic consulting firm, we determined that revenue from our Genomics Business, which had historically been our primary business, was unlikely to return to previous levels and that its then-existing business strategy would not succeed in reversing sales trends. In August 2006, we undertook several restructuring moves to reduce the use of cash and lower expenses, including a significant reduction in the size of our workforce for our Genomics Business, the closure of the California office, and reductions in spending. At the same time, we confirmed our view that our Drug Repositioning Business has the potential to significantly enhance long-term shareholder value and with assistance from the consulting firm, further evaluated the potential of this business. We also concluded during the strategic review that a divestiture of our Preclinical Business would yield cash proceeds that could be put to more productive use in our Drug Repositioning Business and completed a sale of our Preclinical Business in December 2006.

During the fall of 2006, we considered various strategic alternatives and concluded that certain of the assets of our Genomics Business could have significant value in the area of molecular diagnostics. In January 2007, we began to explore, with the assistance of our investment banker, Aquilo Partners,

strategic options for our Genomics Business, including the possible sale of our Genomics Business as a platform for the development of molecular diagnostics. However, by late May 2007, it became apparent that potential venture and private equity investors, corporate life science tool companies and corporate molecular diagnostic companies were not willing to invest in or acquire all of the assets of our Genomics Business for the purpose of creating a molecular diagnostics business or otherwise. Therefore, as our Genomics Business continued to require significant cash, to be unprofitable and to divert resources from our Drug Repositioning Business, in late May 2007, with the continuing assistance of our investment banker, Aquilo Partners, we began to actively solicit offers for the sale of our Genomics Business and evaluated other strategic alternatives available for disposing of the Genomics Business, including a complete or gradual shut-down of that business.

Aquilo Partners first discussed the Genomics Business with Ocimum on June 18, 2007, and as of July 16, 2007, we had received eight written expressions of interest from potential purchasers for the assets of the Genomics Business. Each offeror was afforded the opportunity to conduct due diligence at the Company and in mid-July, we received initial written proposals from five bidders. Four of the five bidders, including Ocimum, provided revised proposals following discussions with Aquilo Partners and on July 27, 2007, we publicly announced that, following consideration of various strategic alternatives for the Genomics Business, we were concentrating our efforts on the possibility of a sale of all or parts of the Genomics Business and were being assisted by a financial advisor.

During August 2007, we negotiated with four potential acquirors of assets of the Genomics Business, but did not enter into exclusivity arrangements with any party. We ultimately focused on Ocimum, which appeared to have the best terms, including likelihood of closing, price, form of consideration, availability of adequate financing and willingness to exclude the Molecular Diagnostics Assets such that we could retain the business associated with such assets for possible sale to a third party.

On September 10, 2007, senior management and the legal and financial advisors of the Company sent a draft letter of intent to Ocimum and on September 16, 2007, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Ocimum. Between September 18 and October 14, 2007, representatives of Aquilo Partners and the Company's management maintained dialogue with the other interested parties while Ocimum conducted due diligence and negotiated a definitive purchase agreement with the Company. On October 5, 2007, the parties met to begin face-to-face negotiations which culminated in a final Asset Purchase Agreement that was approved by the Board of Directors on October 9, 2007 and was signed on October 14, 2007. The Asset Purchase Agreement is subject to further approval by our stockholders.

Assets to be Sold (See page 23)

In the proposed transaction, we have agreed to sell to Ocimum or its affiliate the Genomics Assets used or held for use in our Genomics Business, including certain databases and associated clinical data, intellectual property, equipment, contracts, and inventory.

Retained Assets (See page 24)

We are retaining all assets that are not necessary for the conduct of our Genomics Business, including but not limited to, the Molecular Diagnostics Assets and all assets used in our Drug Repositioning Business or in certain corporate and support functions that are not particular to any operating business.

Assumed Liabilities (See page 24)

Ocimum has agreed to assume certain specified liabilities and ongoing contractual obligations associated with the Genomics Business including liabilities relating to employees, purchase orders issued prior to closing, contractual obligations and liabilities arising after closing, and certain lease obligations.

Retained Liabilities (See page 24)

We will retain all of the liabilities relating to our Genomics Business as conducted prior to the date of closing of the sale, whether known or unknown, except for those specifically assumed by Ocimum.

Purchase Price (See page 24)

The consideration to be paid for the Genomics Assets includes $7,000,000 in cash to be paid at closing and a $3,000,000 promissory note, subject to adjustment based on the change in the "net current assets" and unbilled receivables between June 30, 2007 and the date of closing. There are certain other adjustments, assumed liabilities and contractual obligations and licenses included in the purchase price.

Break-Up Fee (See page 25)

We have the right to terminate the Asset Purchase Agreement prior to the date of closing under certain circumstances in the event we receive an unsolicited acquisition proposal that the Board of Directors deems to be a superior proposal for the Genomics Assets, in which case we will be required to pay Ocimum a fee of $400,000.

Indemnification (See page 27)

The parties agree to indemnify the other party for any losses arising out of any breach of a representation or warranty made by such party in the Asset Purchase Agreement. We will also indemnify Ocimum and Ocimum India for any losses arising out of any liability or obligation of the Company other than the assumed liabilities or any breach of any other obligations of the Company under the Asset Purchase Agreement and Ocimum and Ocimum India will indemnify us for any losses arising out of the assumed liabilities or breach of any obligation of Ocimum under the Asset Purchase Agreement.

The indemnification obligations survive until March 31, 2009, except that (i) certain claim periods relating to retained liabilities or the assumed liabilities, representations of Ocimum and Ocimum India regarding corporate structure and authority, and representations of the Company regarding corporate structure, authority and good title to the assets being sold survive indefinitely, (ii) representations regarding tax matters and compliance with laws survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and
(iii) the parties' obligations to fulfill agreements in the Asset Purchase Agreement survive until six months after the party has become aware of facts giving reasonable notice that a breach has occurred.

The indemnification obligations do not apply until aggregate losses of the indemnified party exceed $150,000 and such party will only be indemnified for amounts above $150,000 with certain exceptions. The total indemnification obligations of each of the parties shall not exceed $1,000,000, respectively, except that such limit will not apply to our representations regarding title to the assets sold, payments to our investment banker Aquilo Partners, and indemnification relating to our retained liabilities or to claims arising from the assumed liabilities. The limit shall also not apply to the expenses of the transaction, transfer taxes and recording fees incurred by either party.

Conditions to Closing (See page 28)

We will not be required to close the transaction if stockholder approval is not obtained. Ocimum and Ocimum India will not be required to close if there is a material adverse effect on the Genomics Business between the date of signing of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the date of closing, or if stockholder approval is not obtained.

Termination (See page 29)

The Asset Purchase Agreement may be terminated as follows:

o by mutual written consent of the parties;

o by either party if the transaction does not close by December 31, 2007 unless it is a result of such party's failure to fulfill obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement or is the result of a review of the Proxy Statement by the Securities and Exchange Commission;

o by either party if a law is enacted prohibiting the transaction;

o by either party if our Board of Directors approves an acquisition proposal, which is a proposal by any person relating to an offer to acquire all the assets of the Company or a material part of the Genomics Business or 50% of the Company's equity securities, certain tender offers or exchange offers, a merger, consolidation, sale, recapitalization, liquidation, or dissolution involving the Company, or other transactions that would impede, interfere with or materially delay the transaction with Ocimum;

o by either party if the other materially breaches representations and warranties or covenants and agreements contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement; and

o by either party if closing has not occurred by January 31, 2008.

Additional Agreements with Ocimum (See page 29)

We will enter into the following agreements with Ocimum in connection with the asset sale:

o Ocimum will provide licenses back to us to use the databases, software and know-how sold to Ocimum, which will be exclusive for use in our Drug Repositioning Business and will be exclusive for a year and thereafter non-exclusive for use in our Molecular Diagnostics Business;

o Ocimum and Ocimum India will issue a $3,000,000 promissory note as partial payment of the purchase price, which may be secured by a letter of credit, may or may not be interest bearing and may or may not be secured by certain assets and guaranteed by an affiliate of Ocimum India depending on the circumstances, as described further herein in "Proposal No. 1 - Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement - Additional Agreements with Ocimum" and "Proposal No. 1 - Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement - Letter of Credit";

o The 50 West Watkins Mill Road Lease, which expires in February 2011, will be assigned to Ocimum at closing as further described in "Proposal No. 1 - Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement - Assignment of Lease" subject to our subleasing from Ocimum a portion of the property until December 31, 2008;

o In the event that no letter of credit is in place to guarantee payment of the promissory note and of the 50 West Watkins Mill Road Lease, Ocimum will deposit $750,000 in escrow for payment due in the event of a default under those agreements as described further herein in "Proposal No. 1 - Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement - Additional Agreements with Ocimum" and "Proposal No. 1 - Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement - Letter of Credit."

Other Terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement

The Asset Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties and certain covenants of the parties typical for a transaction of this nature. In addition, the Asset Purchase Agreement contains non-compete and non-solicitation provisions where we agree not to engage in the Genomics Business or have any interest in a company that competes with the Genomics Business anywhere in the world for five years and both parties agree not to solicit the other party's employees for eighteen months following the closing.

Other provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement include:

o Our obligation to use reasonable efforts to obtain various third party consents prior to closing;

o Ocimum's agreements (i) that any employment offer made to Genomics Business employees shall contain base salary and incentive compensation that, in the aggregate, is not less than, and benefits through the first anniversary of closing substantially similar to, those provided by the Company as of the date of the Asset Purchase Agreement and (ii) to assume certain severance liability for Genomics Business employees; and

o the transfer by the Company to Ocimum of the name "Gene Logic" and trademarks and domain names related to the corporate name or to the Genomics Business.

Nature of Our Business Following the Sale (See page 31)

The proposed sale of the Genomics Business will complete the transformation of our company to an enterprise with singular purpose: to build our business in Drug Repositioning & Development. In our drug repositioning and development business we seek to reposition safe drug candidates by finding new uses for compounds provided by our pharmaceutical company partners or which we acquire through other means. Under the terms of our partnership agreements, we expect to share economically in our partners' successful development and commercialization of these repositioned drug compounds. Our economic sharing takes the form of both milestone payments during development and royalties from sales. Additionally, we also expect to undertake repositioning and development of compounds for our own account and for which we obtain development rights with the objective to establish for our company economically rewarding collaborations and/or out-licensing arrangements to develop and commercialize.

Regulatory Approvals (See page 33)

Appraisal Rights in Respect of the Sale (See page 34)

Under Delaware law, our stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the asset sale.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences (See page 34)

The sale of the Genomics Assets will result in gain or loss to the Company depending upon whether the net proceeds realized from the sale exceed its basis in such assets. The Company does not expect that the asset sale will result in any federal income tax consequences to our stockholders.

Pro Forma Financial Information (See page 34)

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for the Company giving effect to the sale of the Genomics Assets are annexed to this Proxy Statement as Appendix C and show what the Company's financial performance would have been if the assets in question were not part of the Company's business as of the beginning of January 2006 and the beginning of January 2007, respectively, for the income statement and as of September 30, 2007 for the balance sheet. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated

Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the related notes in this Proxy Statement and our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. See the section herein entitled "Company Reports" for information on how to obtain a copy of the Company's 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if this transaction had been consummated prior to or as of the times indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of the future financial position and results of operations of the Company.

Interests of Certain Persons (See page 35)

Certain executive officers have interests in the sale of the Genomics Assets that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of our stockholders generally. These interests include the rights of these officers to receive additional compensation upon the completion of the transaction in the form of year-end incentive compensation under our existing plan, or the vesting of restricted stock and to be compensated under certain circumstances under our Executive Severance Plan. The Board of Directors was aware of these interests, and considered them, among other matters, when approving the Asset Purchase Agreement providing for the sale of the Company's Genomics Assets.

Required Vote and Recommendation (See page 36)

The Board of Directors has concluded that the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate substantially upon the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement is in the best interests of our stockholders and recommends that you vote "FOR" the approval of Proposal No. 1. The affirmative vote, whether in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock is required to approve Proposal No. 1.

[__:__] Eastern Time at the Company's offices located at 50 West Watkins Mill Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878 or at a later date if the meeting is adjourned.

Q: Who is soliciting my proxy?

A: The Board of Directors is soliciting proxies from each of our stockholders. The Company will pay the expenses of preparing and distributing this Proxy Statement and soliciting proxies, including the reasonable expenses incurred by brokers, dealers, banks and trustees or their nominees for forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners.

Q: Who is entitled to vote on the proposals?

A: Stockholders of record as of the close of business on October 26, 2007, the record date, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote.

Q: What am I being asked to vote on at the Special Meeting?

A: The first proposal you are being asked to approve is the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate substantially upon the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of October 14, 2007 by and between us, Ocimum and Ocimum India. See "Proposal No. 1: Approval of the Sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or Its Affiliate" for a more detailed description of the proposed transaction with Ocimum.

The second proposal you are being asked to approve would apply in the event that, among others, the Asset Purchase Agreement with Ocimum and Ocimum India is terminated for any reason. The second proposal is for approval of the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties other than Ocimum on or before June 30, 2008 at a price not less than $6,000,000 and on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may approve. See "Proposal No. 2: Approval of the Sale of All or Substantially All of the Genomics Business Assets to One or More Third Parties Other than Ocimum" for a more detailed description of Proposal No. 2.

The third proposal you are being asked to approve is an amendment of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to change the Company's name to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. See "Proposal No. 3: Approval of Amendment to Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to Change the Company's Name to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc." for a more detailed description of Proposal No. 3.

Q: What will happen if the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate is approved by our stockholders?

A: If the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate is approved by our stockholders and the other conditions to closing of the sale are satisfied or waived, we will sell the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate substantially upon the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement as described in this Proxy Statement. Following the completion of the sale to Ocimum or its affiliate, our remaining assets will consist of the net proceeds from the transaction, our then existing cash and cash

equivalents, the Molecular Diagnostics Assets which we are actively seeking to sell, assets relating primarily to the Drug Repositioning Business and assets used in the operation of our corporate and support functions not particular to any operating business. We intend to focus on the further development and operation of our Drug Repositioning Business after the sale of the Genomics Assets, while we continue our efforts to sell our Molecular Diagnostics Assets or develop other strategic alternatives for that business. Although this is our current strategy, the Board of Directors will, as circumstances warrant, consider alternatives with respect to our remaining business that might include a sale of our remaining assets to a third party, a merger or combination with another company, or other alternatives.

Q: Why are we also being asked to approve a sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties other than Ocimum?

A: It is our intention to complete the sale to Ocimum or its affiliate substantially upon the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement. However, in the event that, among others, the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated for any reason, we are seeking authority to sell the Genomics Assets, whether alone or in combination with other Genomics Business assets, to one or more third parties other than Ocimum on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may approve in order to avoid incurring the expense and delay of a second solicitation of stockholders and the losses that would be sustained in the Genomics Business while we seek shareholder approval for such a transaction. We have no "back up" acquisition agreement with any other party and under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement are prohibited from soliciting offers from third parties. We are currently exploring possibilities for the sale of the Molecular Diagnostics Assets, but at the time of the mailing of this Proxy Statement, no definitive agreement or understanding has been reached for such a sale and we do not know on what terms, if any, these assets could be sold, although we expect that initial proceeds from a sale of these assets would be substantially less than the proceeds from the sale of the Genomics Assets. Since the terms of any future agreement for the sale of any or all of the Genomics Business assets would be negotiated at that time, we are seeking authority to sell all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties other than Ocimum on or before June 30, 2008 at a price not less than $6,000,000 and on such terms as the Board of Directors may approve at such time.

Q: Will any of the proceeds from the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate or from the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties other than Ocimum be distributed to me as a stockholder?

A: We do not contemplate a distribution to stockholders as a result of the proposed sale of the Genomics Assets or of any or all of the Genomics Business assets. We plan to use the net proceeds to develop our Drug Repositioning Business.

Q: Will the Company's Common Stock still be publicly traded if the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate or a sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets is completed?

A: Yes. Our Common Stock is currently traded on The NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol "GLGC". If the proposal to amend our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change the name to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. is approved, we will attempt to have the trading symbol for our Common Stock changed from "GLGC" to a symbol more readily associated with our new name. However, there remains a risk that, if we are unable to maintain compliance with NASDAQ's listing requirements, our stock could be delisted which would negatively impact our liquidity and our stockholders' ability to sell shares.

Q: What are the risks of the proposed sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate?

A: The risks involved in connection with the proposed sale to Ocimum or its affiliate include the following:

o The proposed sale to Ocimum or its affiliate may not occur if the shareholders do not approve the transaction or there is any change, effect, condition, factor or circumstance that has a materially adverse effect on the Genomics Assets.

o If the Genomics Assets are sold to Ocimum or its affiliate, our remaining business and assets will be less diversified and will be subject to a variety of uncertainties and business risks. For a description of risks generally associated with our business see the discussion of risk factors contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

o In order to benefit from any superior offer for the Genomics Assets that could be made in the future by a third party, we would have to terminate the Asset Purchase Agreement and pay a termination fee to Ocimum in the amount of $400,000.

o The purchase price we will receive from Ocimum is subject to adjustment under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement and could be reduced. In addition, a portion of the consideration is payable with a promissory note and there can be no assurance that Ocimum will pay the amount due under the promissory note in a timely way or at all.

o If the sale to Ocimum or its affiliate is not completed and we explore other potential transactions, there may not be any other offers from potential acquirers or the offers may not be as favorable to us as the Ocimum offer.

o Our Common Stock may be less liquid after the transaction, and you may find it more difficult to dispose of your shares.

o Failure to complete the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate could cause our stock price to decline.

A more detailed discussion of risks relating to the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate is provided under the heading "Risk Factors" beginning on page 21.

Q: What will happen if the sale of the Genomics Assets is not approved by our stockholders or is otherwise not completed?

A: If the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate is not approved by our stockholders, or is otherwise not completed, we may be required to pay a termination fee to Ocimum in certain circumstances, there may not be other equivalent offers for the Genomics Assets, we may continue to incur losses as a result of operating the Genomics Business, we may have to shut down the Genomics Business at substantial cost, we may be unable to develop our Drug Repositioning Business as we currently contemplate, and our stock price may decline.

If the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate is approved by our stockholders, but is not otherwise completed, we intend to explore other strategic alternatives, including, if approved by our stockholders, a sale of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties on or before June 30, 2008 at a price not less than $6,000,000 and on such terms as the Board of Directors may approve. There can be no assurance that any potential transaction to sell the Genomics Assets, whether alone or together

with other Genomics Business assets, will provide consideration equal to or greater than the purchase price proposed to be paid by Ocimum in the transaction, or that we will be able to complete an alternate transaction. If we are unable to complete an alternative transaction, we may be required to consider shutting down the Genomics Business, which would be costly and could leave us with insufficient cash to adequately develop our Drug Repositioning Business.

Q: When is the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate expected to be completed?

A: We expect to complete the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate as soon as practicable after all of the conditions to closing the transaction have been satisfied or waived. All parties to the Asset Purchase Agreement are working toward completing the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate as soon as practicable. We currently plan to complete the transaction as soon as possible following the Special Meeting, and if possible prior to December 31, 2007, assuming our stockholders approve the sale and the other conditions to the Asset Purchase Agreement are satisfied or waived. However, the exact timing of the completion of the transaction cannot be predicted. For a more complete description of the conditions to completion of the sale, see "Proposal No. 1 - Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement - Conditions to Closing."

Q: What vote is required to approve Proposal No. 1: Approval of the Sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or Its Affiliate?

A: The affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock is required to approve Proposal No. 1. The Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" Proposal No. 1.

Q: What vote is required to approve Proposal No. 2: Approval of the Sale of All or Substantially All of the Genomics Business Assets to One or More Third Parties Other than Ocimum?

A: The affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock is required to approve Proposal No. 2. The Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" Proposal No. 2.

Q: What vote is required to approve Proposal No. 3: Approval of Amendment to Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to Change the Company's Name to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc.?

A: The affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock is required to approve Proposal No. 3. The Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" Proposal No. 3.

Q: What do I need to do now?

A: After carefully reading and considering the information contained in this Proxy Statement, we urge you to complete, date, sign and return the enclosed proxy card as promptly as possible in order to ensure your representation at the Special Meeting. A return envelope (which is postage prepaid if mailed in the United States) is enclosed for that purpose. You may also authorize your proxy by Internet or telephone. Please see the instructions for authorizing your proxy by Internet and telephone on the proxy card. A majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote must be represented in

person or by proxy at the Special Meeting to enable us to conduct business at the Special Meeting. For further information regarding the voting process, please see "Information Concerning Solicitation and Voting of Proxies."

Q: Can I change my vote after I have signed and returned my proxy?

A: Yes. You can change your vote at any time before proxies are voted at the Special Meeting. You may change your vote by submitting a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date to the Secretary of the Company at the Company's executive offices, 50 West Watkins Mill Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878 prior to the time proxies are voted. Alternatively, you may attend the Special Meeting and vote in person.

Q: If my shares are held in "street name" by my broker, will my broker vote my shares for me?

A: Your broker may not be permitted to exercise voting discretion with respect to one or more of the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the special meeting. Thus, if you do not give your broker or nominee specific instructions, your shares may not be voted on the proposals, and will not be counted in determining the number of shares voted in favor of the proposals. Your failure to give your broker or nominee specific instructions will have the same effect as a vote "AGAINST" the proposals. You should follow the directions provided by your broker regarding how to instruct your broker to vote your shares.

Q: What happens if I do not indicate how to vote my proxy?

A: If you sign and send in your proxy, but do not include instructions on how to vote your properly signed proxy card, your shares will be voted "FOR" Proposal No. 1, 2 and 3.

Q: Who can help answer my questions about the proposals?

A: If you have any questions about the proposals presented in this Proxy Statement, you should contact: Gene Logic Inc., 50 West Watkins Mill Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878, Attn: F. Dudley Staples, Corporate Secretary,
(301) 987-1700.

THE SPECIAL MEETING

General

The enclosed proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of GENE LOGIC INC., a Delaware corporation (referred to herein as the "Company," "Gene Logic," "we," or "us"), for use at the Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on
[_________], [__________], 2007 at [__:__]Eastern Time (the "Special Meeting"), or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, for the purposes set forth herein and in the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting. The Special Meeting will be held at the Company's offices located at 50 West Watkins Mill Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878. The Company intends to mail this Proxy Statement and accompanying proxy card on or about [__________], 2007 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, the stockholders will be asked to vote upon each of the proposals and conduct such other business as may properly come before the Special Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof.

Solicitation

The Company will bear the entire cost of solicitation of proxies, including preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement, the proxy and any additional information furnished to stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to banks, brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding in their names shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), beneficially owned by others to forward to such beneficial owners. The Company may reimburse persons representing beneficial owners of Common Stock for their costs of forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners. Original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone, telegram or personal solicitation by directors, officers or other regular employees of the Company or, at the Company's request, Mellon Investor Services LLC for a fee estimated at $22,000. No additional compensation will be paid to directors, officers or other regular employees of the Company for these services.

Voting, Outstanding Shares and Quorum

Only holders of record of the Company's Common Stock at the close of business on October 26, 2007, the record date for the Special Meeting (the "Record Date"), will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting. At the close of business on October 26, 2007, the Company had outstanding and entitled to vote 32,172,588 shares of Common Stock. Each holder of record of Common Stock on the Record Date above will be entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted upon at the Special Meeting. If you were a stockholder as of the Record Date, you are entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, and we encourage you to attend and vote in person. HOWEVER, WHETHER OR NOT YOU INTEND TO ATTEND THE SPECIAL MEETING, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS REQUESTS THAT YOU COMPLETE, SIGN, DATE AND RETURN THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY CARD IN ORDER TO ENSURE THE PRESENCE OF A QUORUM. A postage-paid return envelope is enclosed for your convenience. Alternatively, you may cast your vote via Internet or by telephone pursuant to the instructions on the enclosed proxy card.

The proposals to (i) approve the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate substantially upon the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, (ii) approve the sale of the Genomics Business to one or more third parties other than Ocimum if, among other things, the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated, and (iii) amend the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to change the name to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. each require the affirmative vote, whether in person or by proxy, of a majority of the shares of the outstanding Common Stock. A majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote, represented in person or

by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the Special Meeting. All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the Special Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.

Shares represented at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy, but not voted, will nevertheless be counted for purposes of determining a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes on a particular matter will be treated as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as "NO" votes on the proposals to be voted upon at the Special Meeting. A "broker non-vote" occurs when a broker, bank or other holder of record holding shares for a beneficial owner properly executes and returns a proxy without voting on a particular proposal because the holder of record does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

Brokerage Accounts

If any of your shares are held in the name of a brokerage firm, bank, bank nominee or other institution, only it can vote such shares and only upon receipt of your specific instructions. Accordingly, please contact the person responsible for your account and instruct that person to execute the proxy card representing your shares. In addition, if you hold your shares in a brokerage or bank account, your broker or bank may allow you to provide your voting instructions by telephone or Internet. Please consult the materials you receive from your broker or bank prior to authorizing a proxy by telephone or Internet.

Attendance at the Special Meeting

Only holders of common stock, their proxy holders and guests we may invite may attend the Special Meeting. If you wish to attend the Special Meeting in person but you hold your shares through someone else, such as a stockbroker, you must bring proof of your ownership as of the record date and identification with a photo at the special meeting. For example, you could bring an account statement showing that you beneficially owned shares of common stock of the Company as of the record date as acceptable proof of ownership.

Revocability of Proxies

Any person giving a proxy pursuant to this solicitation has the power to revoke it at any time before it is voted. The proxy may be revoked by filing with the Secretary of the Company at the Company's executive offices, 50 West Watkins Mill Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878, written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or it may be revoked by attending the Special Meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the Special Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy.

PLEASE COMPLETE, SIGN, DATE AND RETURN THE ACCOMPANYING PROXY CARD IN THE ENCLOSED POSTAGE-PAID RETURN ENVELOPE AS PROMPTLY AS POSSIBLE OR SUBMIT YOUR VOTE VIA THE INTERNET OR BY TELEPHONE PURSUANT TO THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD.

PROPOSAL NO. 1: APPROVAL OF THE SALE OF THE GENOMICS
ASSETS TO OCIMUM OR ITS AFFILIATE

General

The Company currently has two businesses: the Genomics Business and the Drug Repositioning Business. The Genomics Business consists of (i) the assets associated with the business of developing, operating and licensing databases of genomic and toxicogenomic data and related software and providing genomic and genetic data generation and analysis services and other related services (the "Genomics Assets"), and (ii) the assets associated with researching, developing and commercializing diagnostic, prognostic and monitoring tests for human and animal health care (the "Molecular Diagnostics Assets"). You are being asked to ratify and approve the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate for $7,000,000 payable in cash at closing and $3,000,000 payable pursuant to a promissory note and the assumption by Ocimum of certain liabilities and contractual obligations substantially upon the terms and conditions set forth in the asset purchase agreement between the Company, Ocimum and Ocimum India, dated as of October 14, 2007 (the "Asset Purchase Agreement"). The principal terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement are described below under the heading "Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement." On October 9, 2007, the Board of Directors approved the Asset Purchase Agreement, determining that its terms are fair to and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Under Delaware law, a sale of "all or substantially all of the assets" of a corporation requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the corporation's shares. Although the Company will continue in business after the sale of the Genomics Assets and expects to continue to develop and operate its Drug Repositioning Business, under Delaware law the assets to be sold to Ocimum or its affiliate may be deemed to constitute "substantially all" of the Company's assets and, accordingly, the Board of Directors has determined to seek the approval of the Company's stockholders.

If this proposal is approved and the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affilaite is completed, the Company intends to apply the net proceeds of the asset sale to the development and operation of its Drug Repositioning Business. The Company estimates that the use of the net proceeds it is to receive in connection with the asset sale will include ongoing development of Gene Logic's proprietary compound GL1001, potential repositioning and development of a variety of additional compounds currently in discussion with Company's drug repositioning partners, and the acquisition, analysis and potential development of additional compounds from partners and other sources.

Background of and Reasons for the Sale

In June 2006, the Company announced that revenue for its Genomics Business would be significantly lower than previously anticipated for both the second quarter and for the full year 2006 and that the lower-than-expected revenue would also adversely impact operating results for the business for the foreseeable future. The Company immediately began a comprehensive review of its business and of its business strategy, with the assistance of, among others, a leading strategic consulting firm. The Company also retained the services of Larry Tiffany, the former Vice President, Global Business Development of the Company, to replace the outgoing general manager of the Genomics Business and to participate in a comprehensive review of the Genomics Business and of its prospects.

The Company concluded that revenue from its Genomics Business, which had historically been the Company's primary business, was unlikely to return to previous levels and that its then-existing business strategy would not succeed in reversing sales trends. In August 2006, the Company undertook a number of restructuring moves intended to reduce the use of cash and lower expenses, including a

significant reduction in the size of the workforce of its Genomics Business, the closure of its California office, and reductions in spending, with the expectation that the Company would begin to see the positive impact of this restructuring in the fourth quarter of 2006. After the restructuring, the Company retained the core competencies required to support its then-current products of the Genomics Business, and continued to serve existing customers and to seek new Genomics customers. The Company also believed that the assets of the Genomics Business were an important part of the technology platform used in the Company's Drug Repositioning Business and could have additional value in other areas with attractive market potential, such as clinical biomarker development and molecular diagnostics. During the fall of 2006, the Company, with the assistance of its consulting firm, began to consider strategic alternatives for the assets of the Genomics Business.

In the meantime, as a result of its strategic review during the summer of 2006, the Company confirmed its view of the potential for its Drug Repositioning Business to significantly enhance long-term shareholder value. Market research conducted by the consulting firm validated large pharmaceutical companies' interest in the emerging field of drug repositioning as an important option for obtaining new, late stage R&D pipeline drug candidates. Drug Repositioning agreements then in effect with Pfizer, Inc., NV Organon, and F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd, as well as a number of active discussions underway with other pharmaceutical companies, were evidence of the value the industry placed on the Company's Drug Repositioning capabilities. The Company believed it had made significant progress to date on a number of candidates in the program and was in discussion with partners about which of these drug candidates might be appropriate for further advancement. The Company concluded that its approach to repositioning drug candidates that stalled in clinical development for reasons other than toxicity could, in a significant percentage of cases, enable these candidates to return to clinical testing.

As part of its strategic review, the Company further concluded that its then Preclinical Business was no longer consistent with its strategic business focus and that, if divested, that business could yield cash proceeds that could be put to more productive use in its Drug Repositioning Business. Accordingly, the Company, which had previously retained an investment banking firm to assist in its assessment of strategic alternatives for the Preclinical Business, focused its short-term efforts on the sale of the Preclinical Business, which was ultimately successfully consummated in December 2006. Following the sale of the Preclinical Business and the restructuring of the Genomics Business, the Company announced that it had reduced the size of its workforce from 434 at the end of 2005 to 151 at the end of 2006.

During the fall of 2006, the consulting firm assisted management in further evaluating the potential of its Drug Repositioning Business. The Company concluded that the business faced uncertainties relating to its dependency on third parties to determine the timing, if any, of return of repositioned drugs to their respective drug development pipelines. The Company concluded that its risk could be mitigated, and the prospects of its Drug Repositioning Business significantly enhanced, by using its technology not only for drug repositioning for third parties but also for proprietary development of drug compounds, which would, in turn, require additional capital for investment.

During the fall of 2006, the Company also continued to consider alternatives for maximizing the value of the Genomics Business. The Company considered various strategic alternatives and concluded, given current market trends, that the assets of the Genomics Business could have value in the area of molecular diagnostics. In January 2007, the Company retained Aquilo Partners as investment banker to explore strategic options for the Genomics Business. Through the spring of 2007, Aquilo Partners and the Company contacted potentially interested parties about the Genomics Business in a broad range of disciplines, including venture and private equity investors, corporate life science tool companies, services companies, and molecular diagnostic companies. The Company presented various business concepts to the potential investors, including the possibility of forming a molecular diagnostics business with

assets of the Genomics Business. By late May 2007, it became apparent that none of these potential investors or partners was willing to invest in or to acquire all of the assets of the Company's Genomics Business for the purpose of creating a molecular diagnostics business.

Meanwhile, the Genomics Business continued to require significant cash, to be unprofitable and to divert resources from the businesses that the Company envisions as its potential source of greater shareholder value: drug repositioning and drug development. Results for the first quarter of 2007 were particularly disappointing. Accordingly, management and the Board of Directors began to weigh the costs and benefits, timing and the likelihood of success, of the alternative options for the Genomics Business.

By late May 2007, Aquilo Partners and the Company had contacted over 100 parties and, in the absence of viable alternatives and with the continuing assistance of Aquilo Partners, the Company focused on an outright sale of the Genomics Business and evaluated the other strategic alternatives available for disposing of the business, including a complete or gradual shut-down. At the direction of the Board of Directors, Aquilo Partners then concentrated its efforts on engaging third parties that might have an interest in acquiring the Genomics Business for any purpose, including the assets that could be used in molecular diagnostics. On June 18, 2007, in connection with this effort, Aquilo Partners first discussed the Genomics Business with Ocimum's financial advisors.

Between June 18, 2007 and June 29, 2007, the Company provided information about the Genomics Business to Ocimum's representatives and Ocimum's CEO visited the Company's Gaithersburg facility.

As of July 16, 2007, the Company had received eight written expressions of interest from potential purchasers for the assets of the Genomics Business, including an expression of interest from Ocimum. Each of these offers was the subject of preliminary negotiations. Each offeror was afforded the opportunity to conduct preliminary due diligence at the Company. In late July, following discussions with Aquilo Partners and the Company, the Company received initial written proposals from four bidders. These offers contained widely differing terms and conditions.

Following a Board meeting on July 26, 2007, on July 27, 2007, the Company publicly announced that, following consideration of various strategic alternatives for its Genomics Division, it was concentrating efforts on investigating the possibility of a sale of all or parts of the Genomics Business, and that the Company was being assisted in this process by its financial advisor.

At various meetings beginning in late July 2007, members of the Board of Directors were updated on the progress of negotiations and considered recommendations of management and Aquilo Partners as to the terms of each of these offers, including consideration and form of consideration, likelihood and timing of consummation of a transaction with each offeror, and the need for and availability to each offeror of adequate third party financing. The Board of Directors met formally on August 15, 2007 and August 30, 2007 to review the progress of negotiations.

During August 2007, the Company and Aquilo Partners negotiated with four potential acquirors of the assets of the Genomics Business on the terms and conditions of the various offers. From August 7 to August 30, 2007, representatives of Ocimum had a series of calls with representatives of the Company to discuss the assets and liabilities to be assumed by each of the respective parties in the transaction. During these discussions, Ocimum agreed to accept assignment of a larger portion of the Company's leased space in Gaithersburg, Maryland and to assume more of the Company's other liabilities with regard to its Genomics Business resulting in an improvement in the Ocimum proposal to the Company.

In late August, 2007, three of the four parties revised their written proposals to provide improved terms. At the August 30, 2007 Board meeting, the Board of Directors directed management and our investment banker, to continue negotiations with all four parties, but not to enter into exclusivity arrangements with any party at that time. Ultimately the Company focused on negotiations with Ocimum, which appeared to offer the best terms, including likelihood of closing, price, form of consideration, availability of adequate financing, and willingness to exclude the Molecular Diagnostics Assets so that the Company could retain such assets for possible sale to a third party.

From September 3 to September 10, 2007, representatives of the Company and Aquilo Partners had a series of calls with all of the interested parties including Ocimum in an attempt to improve the proposals. Representatives of Aquilo Partners and the Company spoke with representatives of Ocimum and their financial advisors to discuss their proposal, including Ocimum's willingness to consider a promissory note as opposed to an earn-out structure, willingness to carve-out the Molecular Diagnostics Business portion, and clarification on remaining due diligence items and timing. As part of these calls, Ocimum said it was considering a promissory note for $3 million instead of the earn-out, considering a reduction of the liabilities to be retained by the Company, and was considering carving out the Molecular Diagnostic Business as a mechanism to improve their proposal.

On September 10, 2007, two interested parties (not including Ocimum) sent revised non-binding proposals in an attempt to improve their competitive position.

Following negotiations and discussions between representatives of Ocimum and their financial advisors and representatives of the Company and Aquilo Partners, the senior management and the legal and financial advisors for the Company sent a draft letter of intent to Ocimum on September 10, 2007.

Between September 11 and September 15, 2007, representatives of the Company and Aquilo Partners negotiated with representatives of Ocimum and their financial advisors and discussed next steps, culminating in execution of a non-binding letter of intent on September 16, 2007.

On September 17, 2007, the Company had an update call with its Board of Directors to discuss the status of the negotiations.

Between September 18 and October 14, 2007, representatives of Aquilo Partners and Company management maintained dialogue with the other interested parties while Ocimum conducted due diligence and negotiated a definitive purchase agreement with the Company. In addition, during this time, Ocimum shared financial information and discussed the business prospects of its business and that of its sister companies with the senior management of the Company.

On October 5, 2007, the parties met to begin final face-to-face negotiations which culminated in a final Asset Purchase Agreement that was approved by the Board of Directors on October 9, 2007 and was signed on October 14, 2007. The sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement is subject to further approval by the stockholders of the Company.

Information about Gene Logic Inc.

The Company was incorporated in September 1994 as a Delaware corporation and commenced operations in 1996. In 1997, we completed our initial public offering. Our stock is traded on The NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol "GLGC." In 1998, we purchased Oncomed, Inc., which brought us new expertise in tissue sample management and use of microarray technologies. In 2003, we purchased TherImmune Research Corporation, renamed it Gene Logic Laboratories Inc., and subsequently referred to it in our SEC filings as our Preclinical Division. We sold the Preclinical

Division on December 15, 2006, to a privately held company. In 2004, we acquired certain technologies from Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which, in combination with our genomics databases and proprietary software, are the basis for our current drug repositioning and drug development business (the "Drug Repositioning Business").

We currently have two operating divisions: the Drug Repositioning & Development Division and the Genomics Division. Our Drug Repositioning & Development Division is engaged in the business of research and development of drug candidates owned by us or by third parties. We apply our uniquely proprietary integrative pharmacology for the purpose of determining new potential therapeutic indications for compounds that have failed clinical development studies for reasons other than safety. Our Genomics Division includes the Genomics Assets and the Molecular Diagnostics Assets.

In 2006, as part of our Genomics Business, we started developing the capabilities for the Molecular Diagnostics Assets. This business (the "Molecular Diagnostics Business") is driven by our expertise in biomarker discovery and our genomics databases. Although the Molecular Diagnostics Business is at an early stage, we have already identified predictive biomarkers for certain diseases that could potentially be further developed into commercial diagnostic products. The Molecular Diagnostics Assets include various patents and patent applications. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company retains the right to use the existing genomic and toxicogenomic databases that are part of the foundation of the Molecular Diagnostics Business and has licenses to use certain patents and patent applications and other know-how of the Genomics Business for the purpose of developing and commercializing diagnostic products and services.

We are headquartered in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Our principal executive offices are located at 50 West Watkins Mill Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878, and our telephone number is (301) 987-1752.

Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the risk factors described below and those risk factors generally associated with our business contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and any subsequent SEC filings, along with other information provided to you in this Proxy Statement, in deciding how to vote on the proposal to sell the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate.

Our remaining business and assets will be less diversified and have yet to produce substantial revenue and an investment in our business is risky with no guarantee of success.

After selling the Genomics Assets, we will focus our efforts on operating our Drug Repositioning Business. We may invest in other assets in the future or seek to merge, be acquired by or combine with another company that has products or technologies, but we have no current specific plans to do so at this time. We may encounter unanticipated difficulties or challenges as we work to implement our new business focus. If we are unable to address and overcome such difficulties or challenges, we may not be successful with our new business focus.

The sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate may not be completed if the conditions to closing are not satisfied or waived.

There is a risk that the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate may not be completed because the conditions to closing, including approval of the transaction by our stockholders and the absence of a material adverse event affecting the Company or the Genomics Assets before the closing, may not be satisfied or waived. If the transaction is not completed, we may be unable to find another buyer for the Genomics Assets or the terms offered by another buyer may not be as favorable to us as those in the Asset Purchase Agreement, we may divert resources away from our Drug Repositioning Business, our business could be seriously harmed, and we may be forced to shut down the Genomics Business and incur substantial costs associated with such a shut-down, including lease payments of approximately $4 million and employee severance payments of approximately $2.5 million.

The amount of net proceeds that we will receive is subject to uncertainties.

Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the amount that we receive from Ocimum is subject to the possibility of reduction by virtue of a purchase price adjustment described below under "Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement
- Purchase Price." In addition, the amount of net proceeds is subject to further reduction after the closing if Ocimum successfully asserts claims to indemnification pursuant to the indemnification provisions of the Asset Purchase Agreement and because a portion of the consideration is payable with a promissory note, there can be no assurance that Ocimum will pay the amount due under the promissory note in a timely way or at all. Further, we may have unforeseen liabilities and expenses that must be satisfied from the after-tax net proceeds of the sale to Ocimum or its

affiliate, leaving less to fund our remaining operations. If we do not have sufficient cash to fund our remaining operations, we may need to seek to obtain equity or debt financing, which may not be possible under satisfactory terms, if at all; our business may be seriously harmed, and we may be forced into bankruptcy.

We may not participate in a superior offer for the Genomics Assets unless we pay a termination fee to Ocimum.

The Asset Purchase Agreement requires us to pay Ocimum a termination fee equal to $400,000 if we terminate the Asset Purchase Agreement prior to closing as a result of our determining to accept an unsolicited acquisition proposal that we determine to be a superior proposal.

If the sale to Ocimum or its affiliate is not completed, we intend to explore other potential transactions; however, there may not be any other offers from potential acquirers or the offers may not be as good as the Ocimum offer.

If the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate is not completed, we intend to explore other strategic alternatives, including, if approved by our stockholders, a sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to another party on or before June 30, 2008 at a price not less than $6,000,000 and on such terms as the Board of Directors approve at such time. There can be no assurance that any potential transaction will provide consideration equal to or greater than the purchase price proposed to be paid by Ocimum in the transaction, or that we will be able to complete an alternate transaction.

Our Common Stock may be less liquid after the transaction, and you may find it more difficult to dispose of your shares.

Our Common Stock is currently traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market under the symbol "GLGC." Following the completion of the proposed transaction, we expect that the Common Stock will continue to be traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market. Our listing on the NASDAQ Global Market is conditioned upon our continued compliance with the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, including a rule that requires that the minimum bid price per share for our Common Stock not be less than $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days. Given the recent price levels for our Common Stock, and the fact that it is impossible to predict the trading price of our Common Stock following the closing of the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate, we cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to comply with such rules. If we fail to comply and cannot remedy our noncompliance during any applicable notice or grace periods, our Common Stock could be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Market. The delisting of our Common Stock would likely have a material adverse effect on the trading price, volume and marketability of our Common Stock. Upon a delisting from the NASDAQ Global Market, our Common Stock would become subject to the penny stock rules of the SEC, in which event it is possible that the price of our Common Stock would further decline and likely that our stockholders would find it more difficult to sell their shares.

Failure to complete the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate could cause our stock price to decline.

If a sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate is not completed, our stock price may decline due to the following potential consequences:

o we may not be able to sell our Genomics Assets for values equaling or exceeding those currently estimated by us; in particular, the Genomics Assets could be substantially diminished in value;

o the failure to complete the asset sale may create substantial doubt as to our ability to effectively implement our current business strategies; and

o our costs related to the asset sale, such as legal, accounting and financial advisor fees, must be paid even if the asset sale is not completed.

Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement

The following summary highlights the material terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement and is not a complete statement of all information, facts or materials to be voted on at the Special Meeting. This summary does not purport to describe all of the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement and is qualified by reference to the complete Asset Purchase Agreement attached as Appendix A to this Proxy Statement. You should read this Proxy Statement and the Asset Purchase Agreement in their entirety to fully understand the proposal and its consequences to you.

The Asset Purchase Agreement

The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Ocimum and Ocimum India, dated as of October 14, 2007, pursuant to which it will, subject to certain terms and conditions, including approval by our stockholders at the Special Meeting, sell the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate. As consideration for this sale, Ocimum will pay the Company $7,000,000 cash at closing, Ocimum and Ocimum India will issue a $3,000,000 promissory note, and Ocimum will assume certain liabilities and ongoing contractual obligations and grant certain licenses.

Assets to be Sold

The assets to be sold include all of the right, title and interest of the Company and its affiliates free and clear of all liens except for permitted encumbrances, in and to the following Genomics Assets used or held for use by or for the Genomics Business:

o the biorepository, consisting of biological samples and associated clinical data;

o information assets, including (i) existing data and named database products compiled from such data, and (ii) any existing software owned by the Company that is necessary or useful in the use of such databases, subject to any rights or ownership by customers or suppliers;

o intellectual property rights, including relevant (i) patents and patent applications, (ii) trade secrets and know-how, (iii) the name Gene Logic and related trademarks and domain names, (iv) copyrights and related rights;

o the 50 West Watkins Mill Road Lease and related improvements;

o the rights of the Company to third party licensed databases, third party software licenses and other licensed intellectual property held by the Company subject to applicable terms; and

o inventory, equipment, contracts and purchase orders related to the Genomics Business, business information, certain prepaid expenses and certain other assets.

Retained Assets

The assets excluded from the asset sale include any assets of the Company that are not necessary for the conduct of the Genomics Business as currently conducted by the Company, including, but not limited to, the Company's cash and cash equivalents, lease security deposits and accounts receivable, the Molecular Diagnostics Assets and all assets used in our Drug Repositioning Business or in certain corporate and support functions that are not particular to any operating business.

Assumed Liabilities

Ocimum will assume from the Company and its affiliates, and thereafter pay, perform or discharge in accordance with their terms, certain liabilities, including the following:

o certain accrued benefits liabilities for employees of the Genomics Business, up to $205,500;

o accrued and unused paid-time-off for the employees hired by Ocimum;

o purchase orders issued prior to the closing for the supply of assets and services for use in the Genomics Business;

o liabilities and obligations arising after the sale of the Genomics Business with respect to contracts included in the Genomics Assets; and

o certain lease obligations.

Retained Liabilities

The Company will retain all of the liabilities of the Company except for the assumed liabilities set forth above. All liabilities of the Genomics Business (known or unknown) not specifically assumed by Ocimum will remain with the Company following the sale of certain assets of the Genomics Business to Ocimum or its affiliate.

Purchase Price

The consideration to be paid for the Genomics Assets is $7,000,000 in cash at the closing and a $3,000,000 promissory note, plus or minus the amount of a purchase price adjustment (summarized below). There are certain other adjustments, assumed liabilities and contractual obligations and licenses included in the purchase price.

At Closing, $7,000,000 will be paid by Ocimum to the Company. Ocimum and Ocimum India will issue a promissory note in the principal amount of $3,000,000 due and payable on the date that is 18 months after the date of closing and will be jointly and severally liable thereunder. Additional terms and conditions of the promissory note are discussed below under "Additional Agreements with Ocimum."

A purchase price adjustment will be calculated as follows:

o If the net current assets of the Genomics Business, which includes the inventory, prepaid assets, other current assets and intercompany receivables for the Japanese and United Kingdom subsidiaries, decrease between June 30, 2007 and the closing by greater $500,000, then the Company will pay Ocimum the amount of the decrease that is greater than $500,000.

o If the net current assets of the Genomics Business increase between June 30, 2007 and the closing by greater $500,000, then Ocimum will pay the Company the amount of the increase that is greater than $500,000.

o In addition, if the net unbilled receivables of the Genomics Business increases between June 30, 2007 and the closing, then the Company will pay Ocimum the amount of such change.

o Finally, the Company will receive a credit in the purchase price adjustment for the net book value as of closing of the equipment we recently acquired from Agilent Technologies.

The net current assets adjustment, net unbilled receivables and net book value of the equipment recently acquired from Agilent Technologies will be determined based upon a closing listing of assets and liabilities to be prepared by the Company within 35 days of the closing. Ocimum will then have 30 days to review the closing listing of assets and liabilities and, if Ocimum does not agree with the closing listing of assets and liabilities, submit a notice of objection. If the Company and Ocimum cannot resolve such disputes, then PricewaterhouseCoopers will resolve the disputes. Once all disputes are resolved, payment of the purchase price adjustment by either Ocimum or the Company will be due within 10 business days.

Break Up Fee

In the event that the Board of Directors receives an acquisition proposal (defined below under "Termination") that it deems to be a superior proposal (a proposal by any person to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company pursuant to a tender offer or a merger or to acquire substantially all of the assets of the Genomics Business on terms and conditions that a majority of the Board of Directors determines in good faith to be more favorable to the Company's stockholders, from a financial point of view, than the transaction contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement), and the Board of Directors determines that failing to recommend such superior proposal to the stockholders would be a breach of its fiduciary duties, then upon termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company will be required to pay Ocimum $400,000. Since the signing of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the members of the Board of Directors and representatives of the Company are prohibited under the Asset Purchase Agreement from soliciting acquisition proposals from third parties and may only respond to unsolicited acquisition proposals from third parties.

Third Party Consents

Because the transaction with Ocimum is structured as an asset purchase instead of a stock purchase, a significant number of third party consents are required. The Company and Ocimum are in the process of obtaining or planning to obtain necessary third party consents. These include consents to the transfer of the key tissue accrual site contracts, software license agreements, certain customer contracts and the equipment and related licenses recently acquired from Agilent Technologies. Obtaining consents are not, however, a condition of closing.

Employment Matters

The employment by the Company of employees hired by Ocimum will terminate at closing. It is

anticipated that Ocimum will extend offers of employment to employees of the Genomics Business, although the exact number of such employees has not been determined. In addition, with Gene Logic's consent, Ocimum may hire certain employees of the Company not in the Genomics Business who currently perform administrative functions primarily for the Genomics Business. The agreement also provides that, for Genomics employees to whom Ocimum makes employment offers, such offers will include a base salary and incentive compensation that, in the aggregate, is not less than such employee's current salary and incentive compensation. In addition, the agreement provides that until the first anniversary of the date of closing, Ocimum will make benefits available to the employees Ocimum hires that are substantially similar, in the aggregate, to those provided by the Company as of the date of the agreement. Further, Ocimum has generally assumed the obligation for accrued paid-time-off for Genomics employees that it hires. Ocimum's agreement to provide comparable employee compensation packages should facilitate a smoother transition and also reduce the Company's potential exposure for severance liabilities. Ocimum will be liable for severance liabilities for any employees of the Company in the Genomics Business to whom Ocimum does not make an offer of employment or whom they hire and terminate within 60 days of the date of closing, subject to a maximum liability of Ocimum of $1,000,000, provided that Ocimum complies with the Company's severance policies.

Non-Compete Provision

The Asset Purchase Agreement provides that for five years following the closing, the Company may not engage in the Genomics Business or have any interest in a company that competes with the Genomics Business anywhere in the world. The restriction on competition with the Genomics Business does not restrict the Company from:

o owning, as a passive investor, less than 5% of a public company's equity which competes with the Genomics Business or owning its interest in Xceed Molecular;

o engaging in activities associated with the Company's Molecular Diagnostics Business and Drug Repositioning Business; or

o engaging in activities of the Company, or a division of the Company, following their acquisition, by a person or company competing with the Genomics Business prior to such acquisition.

Non-Solicitation Provision

Subject to certain exceptions, for eighteen months following closing, neither the Company nor Ocimum may:

o solicit any employee of the other to terminate his or her employment with such company; or

o recruit or encourage an employee of the other to become an employee or consultant of such company.

Representations and Warranties

The Asset Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties of the parties typical for a transaction of this nature. The representations and warranties survive in the manner provided below in the discussion of the indemnification provisions.

Certain Covenants

The Asset Purchase Agreement contains covenants of the parties typical for a transaction of this nature, including covenants regarding the following:

o conduct of the business between signing and closing;

o access to information before and after closing;

o notification of event between signing and closing;

o restrictions on public announcements;

o reasonable efforts to obtain necessary consents;

o retention of books and records;

o assignment of contracts and rights;

o tax matters;

o mail received after the closing; and

o expense proration and transfer taxes.

Indemnification

The Company agrees to indemnify Ocimum and Ocimum India against any losses arising out of:

o any breach of a representation or warranty made by the Company in the Asset Purchase Agreement;

o the breach of any agreement of the Company contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement; and

o any liability or obligation of Company other than the assumed liabilities, discussed above under "Assumed Liabilities."

Ocimum and Ocimum India agree to indemnify the Company against any losses arising out of:

o any breach of a representation or warranty made by Ocimum or Ocimum India in the Asset Purchase Agreement;

o the breach of any agreement of Ocimum or Ocimum India contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement; or

o any assumed liabilities, discussed above under "Assumed Liabilities."

The indemnification obligations survive until March 31, 2009, except that:

o the claim period for the following liabilities survives indefinitely (a) Ocimum's and Ocimum India's indemnity obligation for assumed liabilities and representations about corporate structure and authority, and (b) the Company's indemnity obligation for any of the liabilities of the Company other than the assumed liabilities and representations by the Company about corporate structure, authority and title to assets sold;

o the claim period for the following representations by the Company shall survive until the expiration of the statute of limitations (a) tax matters, and (b) compliance with laws; and

o the Company's and Ocimum's and Ocimum India's obligation to fulfill agreements contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement will survive until six months after the party has become aware of facts giving reasonable notice that a breach has occurred.

Limitations on Indemnification

The indemnification obligations under this agreement do not apply until the aggregate losses of the party to be indemnified exceed $150,000 and the indemnification obligation is only for amounts above such $150,000 with certain exceptions. The total indemnification obligations of Ocimum and Ocimum India and of the Company shall not exceed $1,000,000, respectively; provided, however, that the $1,000,000 limit on indemnification shall not apply to claims arising from the following items:

o as to the Company, (i) the Company's representations regarding (a) title to assets sold and (b) payments to Aquilo Partners, the investment banker; and (ii) indemnification relating to the Company's retained liabilities discussed above under "Retained Liabilities";

o as to Ocimum, any of the assumed liabilities, discussed above under "Assumed Liabilities" or payments to Ocimum's investment banker; and

o as to both parties, (i) expenses of the transaction and (ii) transfer taxes and recording fees.

Ocimum and the Company shall not have any liability to the other for breach of any representation or warranty to the extent that the other party had actual knowledge at or prior to the closing that such representation or warranty was not true at the time of the closing. Additionally, the liability for any loss shall be reduced by any tax benefit and/or insurance proceeds received in connection with such loss by the party to be indemnified.

If the Company owes money to Ocimum under the indemnification provisions, the Company may elect to reduce the principal of the promissory note rather than giving back cash that it has already received.

Conditions to Closing

Ocimum will not be required to close the transaction if:

o there is a material adverse effect on the Genomics Business, provided that certain types of effects are specifically excluded; or

o stockholder approval is not obtained.

Gene Logic will not be required to close the transaction if stockholder approval is not obtained.

Termination

The Agreement may be terminated as follows:

o by mutual written consent of parties;

o by either Ocimum or the Company if Closing does not occur by December 31, 2007 (unless it is the result of such party's failure to fulfill obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement or is the result of an SEC review of the Proxy Statement);

o by either party if a law is put into place prohibiting the transaction;

o by either party if the Company's Board of Directors approves an acquisition proposal, which is a proposal by any person to (i) acquire all of the assets of the company or a material part of the assets of the Genomics Business or over 50% of any class of equity securities of the company, (ii) any tender offer or exchange offer that would result in any person beneficially owning 50% or more of any class of equity securities of the Company, (iii) any merger, consolidation, business combination or sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company or a material part of the Genomics Business, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving the Company, or (iv) any other transaction which would reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, or materially delay the transaction with Ocimum;

o by either party if there has been a material breach by the Company, which, if arising due to circumstances occurring after the date of the agreement, has a material adverse effect, on the one hand, or Ocimum, on the other hand, is in material breach of the representations and warranties or the covenants and agreements contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement; and

o by either party if the Closing has not occurred by January 31, 2008.

Use of Company Name and Trademark

The Company is transferring ownership of the name "Gene Logic" and trademarks and domain names related to the corporate name or to the Genomics Business. The Company will need to obtain shareholder approval to change its name. For more information regarding the change of the Company's name, see "Proposal No. 3 - Approval of Amendment of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to Change the Company's Name to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc."

Additional Agreements with Ocimum

Under certain license agreements, Ocimum will provide licenses back to the Company to use the databases, software and know-how sold to Ocimum in the Drug Repositioning Business and the Molecular Diagnostics Business. The license for the Drug Reposition Business will be exlcusive in perpetuity and the license for the Molecular Diagnostics Business will be exclusive for one year and non-exclusive thereafter.

Ocimum and Ocimum India will issue a promissory note to the Company at closing as partial payment of the purchase price and will be jointly and severally liable thereunder. The promissory note will be due and payable on the date that is 18 months after closing and will accrue interest at the rate of the six month London Interbank Offered Rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal on the date of closing ("LIBOR") plus 3%. The promissory note will be secured by all of the Genomics Assets acquired by

Ocimum and guaranteed by Coramandel Prestcrete Private Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of India and an affiliate of Ocimum India ("Coramandel"). The security interest will be subordinate to all liens or security interests securing certain senior indebtedness of Ocimum. The accrual of interest and the requirement that the Company receive a security agreement executed by Ocimum (the "Security Agreement") and a Guaranty executed by Coramandel (the "Guaranty") may be inapplicable if Ocimum is able to obtain a letter of credit as discussed below under "Letter of Credit."

The 50 West Watkins Mill Road Lease, which expires in February 2011, will need to be assigned to Ocimum at closing pursuant to a lease assignment and assumption agreement. As a condition to such assignment, the prime landlord may require the Company to guaranty the lease. Ocimum may obtain a letter of credit to secure payment of the lease obligations and, once the $3,000,000 note is paid, the Company will seek to be removed as guarantor under the lease in exchange for the letter of credit being provided as collateral to the prime landlord. There is no assurance that the lease will be assigned, and if it is assigned, there is no assurance that Ocimum will be able to obtain a letter of credit to secure payment of the lease obligations or that the Company will be removed as guarantor under the lease. Thus, the Company may retain secondary liability under the lease. The letter of credit is discussed in more detail below under "Letter of Credit."

The Company will remain obligated to reimburse Ocimum for 50% of the base rent and additional rent payable to the prime landlord for 50 West Watkins Mill Road through December 31, 2008. During part or all of that period, the Company will sublease a portion of the space at 50 West Watkins Mill Road and will pay a pro rata portion of the other operating expenses for the portion of the facility that it occupies.

In the event that the letter of credit described below under "Letter of Credit" has not been obtained as of the date of closing, then Ocimum has agreed to deposit $750,000 with an escrow agent pursuant to an escrow agreement (the "Escrow Agreement"). The Escrow Agreement will remain in place until:

o (i) the release of the Company of all obligations under the 50 West Watkins Mill Road Lease arising after the date of closing or any lease guarantee and (ii) the payment of all amounts owed to the Company pursuant to the promissory note;

o delivery by Ocimum to the Company of the letter of credit (as described below under "Letter of Credit"); or

o the time at which there are no more funds remaining in the escrow account.

The Company may make claims on the escrow funds:

o for any unpaid amounts that are due and payable by Ocimum or Ocimum India to the Company under the promissory note; and

o for satisfaction of any obligations of the Company to make payment to the prime landlord in accordance with the terms of the 50 West Watkins Mill Road Lease arising after the date of closing, except with regard to a default resulting from the Company's failure to make payments due and payable to Ocimum pursuant to the sublease.

The Company will enter into master services agreements with Ocimum under which Ocimum will agree to provide services to the Molecular Diagnostics Business and the Drug Repositioning Business. The agreement will include a most favored customer provision and an obligation by Ocimum to make available to the Company a reasonable amount of Biorepository tissue samples or to use such samples for services requested by the Company.

The Company will also enter into a transition services agreement with Ocimum whereby the Company will provide certain transition services to Ocimum for a limited time following closing and Ocimum will pay an agreed amount for such services. The scope of the services, the amount to be paid and the other terms of this arrangement have not been finalized.

Letter of Credit

Ocimum has the option of obtaining a letter of credit in the amount of $3,600,000 or such lesser amount as represents the then-outstanding principal amount due under the promissory note and the then-outstanding obligations under the 50 West Watkins Mill Road Lease discussed above under "Assignment of Lease." If the letter of credit is obtained before 90 days following the closing, the promissory note will become non-interest bearing and any then-accrued interest will be forgiven and the Security Agreement and the Guaranty will be released. If a letter of credit is obtained at any time thereafter, any accrued interest on the promissory note will remain payable, but the note will cease to be interest bearing and the Security Agreement and the Guaranty will be released as of the date the letter of credit is obtained. In addition, if Ocimum obtains the letter of credit after the date of closing, the Escrow Agreement will be terminated and the escrowed funds will be returned to Ocimum. There is no assurance that Ocimum will be able to obtain such letter of credit, in which case the Security Agreement, the Guaranty and the Escrow Agreement will remain in place and interest will continue to accrue on the principal amount of the promissory note at the rate of LIBOR plus 3%.

Nature of Our Business Following the Sale

This sale will complete the transformation of our company to an enterprise with singular purpose: to build our business in Drug Repositioning & Development. This is the business in which we intend to concentrate our resources. We believe this to be our greatest opportunity to create significant potential value for our shareholders because drug repositioning addresses a real demand by the pharmaceutical industry for innovative product candidates and because we believe our proprietary know how is uniquely suited to this purpose.

Through the application of our uniquely proprietary know how in integrative pharmacology, we determine new potential therapeutic indications for compounds that have failed clinical development for reasons other than safety. "Integrative pharmacology" means the study of the changes produced in living animals by chemical substances, especially drugs, applied on a whole-animal or organ systems-level basis.

In our drug repositioning and development business we seek to reposition safe drug candidates by finding new uses for those compounds. These candidate drug compounds are provided either by our business partners who are pharmaceutical companies or are acquired by us through other means for our own account. In general, these compounds have completed safety testing satisfactorily but have been discontinued by their sponsors for various other reasons. We utilize our drug repositioning technologies to create new opportunities for our pharmaceutical partners to reinstate these drug candidates into their development pipelines for the new potential indications which we have found.

Under the terms of our partnership agreements, we expect to share economically in our partners' successful development and commercialization of these repositioned drug compounds. Our economic sharing takes the form of both milestone payments during development and royalties from sales.

Additionally, we also expect to undertake repositioning and development of compounds for our own account and for which we obtain development rights with the objective to establish for our company economically rewarding collaborations and/or out-licensing arrangements to develop and commercialize these compounds.

Drug Repositioning Business Model

The business of drug discovery and development involves a high degree of risk because it is expensive, it is time consuming, and it is subject to a high failure rate. The pharmaceutical industry invests billions of dollars annually to discover and develop biologically active drug compounds that are safe and efficacious for clinical application. A very large number of these drug candidates fail to conclude their development cycle successfully. The reasons for the discontinuation of these development programs include the following: (i) failure to demonstrate efficacy, i.e. lack of effectiveness in treating the disease or condition for which the drug candidate was originally intended; (ii) human toxicity, i.e. failure to demonstrate safety in man; (iii) patient variability in response to the drug; (iv) insufficient potential economic return for the sponsor, i.e. the company developing the drug.

Drug repositioning offers pharmaceutical companies a potentially rich opportunity to enlarge their development pipelines to their economic advantage. Traditionally, pharmaceutical companies have employed two mainstream approaches to supply their product development pipelines: (i) internal research and development; and (ii) in-licensing from external sources. Each of these strategies carries its relative merits, and each will continue to constitute a mainstream source of new product development into the future. In addition to these conventional resources, however, drug repositioning creates a third stream of product development potential for which the drug companies already have invested significant intellectual and financial resources. We believe that the drug repositioning and development business represents a newly emerging segment of the pharmaceutical industry.

Prior to the advent of systematic drug repositioning, alternative uses of drugs were discovered by chance. Examples of such drug successes include Viagra(R) (Pfizer), Evista(R) (Eli Lilly), and Hytrin(R) (Abbott). Utilizing our proprietary indication seeking capabilities, we are able to evaluate and validate a drug candidate systematically in less than one year. Following validation of the newly proposed indication by in vivo confirmation, these drug candidates may be suitable for reinstatement into their sponsor's clinical development program for the newly proposed indication.

Since 2005, we have established business partnerships with eight pharmaceutical companies. These partners are Pfizer, Inc., F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., NV Organon, Eli Lilly and Co., Abbott, H. Lundbeck A/S, Merck Serono, and Solvay Pharmaceuticals. Our agreement with NV Organon involves co-ownership and co-development of repositioned drug candidates. The terms of the other seven agreements vary somewhat in their details, but in general conform to the following basic terms:

o We collaborate with each partner to select a group of their drug candidates to be evaluated. Our partner furnishes samples of these compounds, and, at our own expense, we apply our integrative pharmacology program to them.
o When we identify and validate new potential indications for a particular candidate and our partner decides to reinstate that compound into their clinical development program, we are entitled to earn success based payments upon achievement of certain development milestones. The total amounts of our compensation range from $60-100 million per compound, and, in most cases, include the following customary development milestones: (i) Notice of reinstatement of development; (ii) Filing with the FDA of an Investigational New Drug ("IND") application; (iii) establishment of proof of concept in a Phase II clinical trial; (iv) Commencement of a Phase III clinical trial; and (v) receipt of market approval in the US, in Europe, and in Japan.
o And, in the event that our partner returns a drug to the commercial market, we are entitled to earn royalties, calculated as a percent of sales, that range from single-digit to low double-digit magnitude, and they are generally scaled according to tiered sales volumes.
o In most cases, if our partner decides not to reinstate a drug candidate into its own development pipeline, we are entitled to obtain the development rights to the compound. In such cases, our partner is entitled to earn from us milestone payments and royalties on sales.

Drug Repositioning Program Technology and Analysis

Our proprietary integrative pharmacology program enables us to evaluate a candidate compound systematically and efficiently across a broad range of molecular, cellular and organismal pharmacology. We refer to this systematic process as "drug annotation". Annotation enables us to understand for each compound the entire set of interactions it has in living systems. The techniques we apply to define new therapeutic hypotheses include in vivo (in life), in vitro (in test tube), in silico (in computer data) and ex vivo (external to organism) modalities. Once a new hypothesis is reported, it is validated through animal models that are gating standards utilized by our partners upon which to base their decisions to reinstate for development, or not ("Gold standard animal models"). These models are carried out either by us or by our partner.

Our state-of-the-art technology program includes the use of our own genomic and toxicogenomic information data bases. Even following the sale of our Genomics Business, we will retain in perpetuity full and exclusive rights on a global basis to utilize the existing Gene Logic data bases as a component of our drug repositioning and development business.

Based upon our experience to date in evaluating more than 100 compounds, we have succeeded in determining new hypotheses at the rate of approximately one hypothesis for every three compounds evaluated. Several of these compounds are in the process of animal model validation now. We anticipate that some of these compounds may re-enter clinical development at some point in 2008 either under the sponsorship of our partner or under our own sponsorship.

Proprietary Portfolio Opportunity
It is also our intention to assemble and build a portfolio of compounds for our own account. We may acquire proprietary compounds either through (i) our business partnerships with pharmaceutical companies, or (ii) in-licensing transactions, development collaborations, or chemical matter freely available in the public domain.

Under this scenario, we expect to add value to these compounds directly or through arrangements with third parties, such as out-licensing, co-ventures or other arrangements. In certain cases, we may perform additional development work prior to out-licensing or other arrangements to increase the value of the compounds. In this manner, we intend to operate as a development company, investing selectively through disciplined value-based decisions determined case-by-case by the amounts of investment required, projected monetized value at time of realization and estimated time to realize that value.

At present, our current internal development work is dedicated to our clinical stage small molecule drug candidate, GL1001, to which we hold commercial rights. We have repositioned this drug candidate to treat inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We now are preparing to manufacture research grade drug supply and to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the FDA to enable additional clinical trials to be undertaken in the United States. In August, we announced positive in vivo model results for IBD. We estimate that IBD represents a global commercial opportunity that exceeds $1 billion per annum and that our compound, if successful, could compete for a share of this market. We believe this drug candidate offers a significant potential opportunity to create shareholder value. We intend to continue to invest in the development of this drug candidate as we continue to pursue a partnership to advance the compound's development.

Regulatory Approvals

There are no material United States or state regulatory approvals required for the completion of the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate other than the approval of the Asset Purchase Agreement by our stockholders under the corporate law of the State of Delaware. As described further above under "Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement - Certain Covenants" and "Summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement - Conditions to Closing," prior to closing we must have obtained all consents, authorizations, orders or approvals necessary to transfer the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate which are material to the future conduct of the business by Ocimum and all waiting periods specified by law with respect thereto must have passed.

Appraisal Rights in Respect of the Sale

Under Delaware law, the Company's stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the asset sale.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a general discussion of the material federal income tax consequences to the Company of the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate. This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), current and proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations, judicial authority, and administrative rulings and practice, all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis and are subject to different interpretations. There can be no assurances that the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") will not challenge the tax treatment of certain matters discussed, and no ruling has been sought from the IRS as to the federal income tax consequences of the asset sale.

The sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement will be a taxable transaction with respect to the Company. The Company will realize a gain or loss measured by the difference between the amount realized from the sale and the Company's tax basis in the assets. The amount realized by the Company will include the cash received by it, the amount of its indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration received by it for the assets. For purposes of determining the amount realized by the Company with respect to specific assets, the total amount realized will be allocated among the Genomics Assets according to rules prescribed under Section 1060 of the Code. The Company's basis in the Genomics Assets is equal to the cost adjusted for depreciation or amortization. Should the transaction result in a gain for income tax purposes, it is estimated that the Company has sufficient losses (including net operating loss carry-forwards) to offset such gain. The Company may be subject to federal alternative minimum tax.

The Company may be subject to state income and transfer taxes, but the Company does not anticipate that such taxes, if any, will be significant.

The Company does not expect that the asset sale will result in any federal income tax consequences to our stockholders.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements give effect to the sale of the Genomics Assets. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet gives effect to this transaction as if it had occurred on September 30, 2007. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 give effect to this transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2007. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 give effect to this transaction as if it had occurred on January 1, 2006.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the related notes in this Proxy Statement and our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. See the section herein entitled "Company Reports" for information on how to obtain a copy of the Company's 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would have occurred if this transaction had been consummated at the times indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of the future financial position and results of operations of the Company.

Interests of Certain Persons

If the sale of the Genomics Assets is approved by our stockholders and the transaction is consummated, certain directors and executive officers will earn additional compensation as follows:

o Charles L. Dimmler, III, President and Chief Executive Officer and Director, will become entitled to thirty percent (30%) or $51,000 of his 2007 target incentive compensation if the transaction is consummated in 2007 and, if the transaction is consummated by March 31, 2008, a prior grant to Mr. Dimmler of 25,000 shares of restricted stock of the Company will vest.

o Larry Tiffany, Senior Vice President Genomics, will become entitled to a bonus of $200,000, if the transaction is consummated in 2007, which payment would be in lieu of any severance benefits.

o V. W. Brinkerhoff, III, Senior Vice President Administration, will become entitled to thirty percent (30%) or $30,000 of his 2007 target incentive compensation if the transaction is consummated in 2007.

o Dudley Staples, Senior Vice President and General Counsel, will become entitled to thirty percent (30%) or $23,400 of his 2007 target incentive compensation if the transaction is consummated in 2007 and, if the transaction is consummated prior to December 31, 2008, a prior grant to Mr. Staples of 15,000 shares of restricted stock of the Company will vest.

In addition, Mr. Staples may have the right to receive benefits under the Company's Executive Severance Plan. The sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company may be deemed a change of control under that plan and, consequently, if this officer is terminated by the Company other than for cause, or, under certain circumstances, constructively terminated, within three months before or 13 months after the consummation of the proposed transaction, he could be eligible for benefits under the plan. These benefits would be in lieu of other severance benefits. The benefits under the plan are as follows:

o a payment equal to 12 months salary plus one year's target incentive compensation,

o full payment of health insurance continuation (COBRA) costs for one year after termination of employment for the participant and covered dependents then participating in the Company `s health insurance program, and

o outplacement services.

In addition, for any participant whose employment is terminated within three months before the sale of the Genomics Assets by the Company, either without cause or as a result of a constructive termination, or who continues to be employed on the date of such sale, any outstanding unvested stock options would vest. Outstanding stock options held by the named participants are already vested, except for an option for 54,700 shares granted to Philip L. Rohrer, Jr. in 2007 of which all but 5,470 shares would otherwise be fully vested in any event by November 30, 2007.

VOTE REQUIRED AND RECOMMENDATION

The Board of Directors has concluded that the sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or its affiliate substantially upon the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and recommends that you vote "FOR" the approval of Proposal No. 1. The affirmative vote, whether in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock is required to approve Proposal No. 1.

If the Company does not obtain the requisite stockholder approval for the asset sale, we will be forced to consider other strategic alternatives, including a shut-down of the Genomics Business which would be costly and could leave the Company with insufficient cash to adequately develop its Drug Repositioning Business.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR"
THE PROPOSAL TO RATIFY AND APPROVE THE SALE OF
THE GENOMICS ASSETS TO OCIMUM OR ITS AFFILIATE.

PROPOSAL NO. 2: APPROVAL OF THE SALE OF ALL OR SUBSTANTIALLY
ALL OF THE GENOMICS BUSINESS ASSETS TO ONE OR MORE
THIRD PARTIES OTHER THAN OCIMUM

In the event, among others, that the Asset Purchase Agreement with Ocimum and Ocimum India is terminated for any reason, you are being asked to authorize and approve the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets, comprising the Genomics Assets and the Molecular Diagnostics Assets, to one or more third parties other than Ocimum on or before June 30, 2008 at a price of no less than $6,000,000 and on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may approve.

As discussed in Proposal No. 1, the Board of Directors has determined that a sale of the Genomics Assets is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders, has entered into a binding Asset Purchase Agreement, and expects that upon stockholder approval, a sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum will occur. It is the Company's intention to complete the sale to Ocimum substantially upon the terms set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement. However, to avoid incurring the expense and delay of a second solicitation of stockholders and the losses that would be sustained in the Genomics Business while we seek shareholder approval for such a transaction, in the event that, among others, the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated for any reason, the Company is seeking authority to sell the Genomics Assets, whether alone or in combination with other Genomics Business assets, to one or more third parties other than Ocimum. We have no "back up" acquisition agreement with any other party and under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement are prohibited from soliciting offers from third parties. Since the terms of any future agreement for the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets would be negotiated at that time, we are seeking authority to sell all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties other than Ocimum on or before June 30, 2008 at a price not less than $6,000,000 and on such terms as the Board of Directors approve at such time.

We are also currently exploring possibilities to sell the Molecular Diagnostics Assets on such terms that the Board of Directors deems to be fair to and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders; however, at the time of mailing of this Proxy Statement, no definitive agreement or understanding has been reached for such a sale. We expect that the initial proceeds from a sale of the Molecular Diagnostics Assets will be significantly less than the proceeds from the sale of the Genomics Assets.

Under Delaware law, a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of a corporation requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the corporation's shares. Because a sale of the Genomics Business assets may be deemed to represent all or substantially all of the Company's assets, the Board of Directors has determined to seek the approval of our stockholders.

For a discussion of the background of and reasons for the sale of the Genomics Assets, information about the Company, certain risk factors, the nature of our business following such a sale, interests of certain persons, appraisal rights, pro forma financial information and certain federal income tax consequences, see the information provided under "Proposal No. 1 - Approval of the Sale of the Genomics Assets to Ocimum or Its Affiliate."

If this proposal is approved and the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets is completed, the Company intends to apply the net proceeds from the transaction to the development and operation of our Drug Repositioning Business.

While the Board of Directors will seek to negotiate a sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets on or before June 30, 2008 at a price of not less than $6,000,000, there is no

guarantee that you will be satisfied with any or all of the terms of such sale if completed. By approving Proposal No. 2 you will be giving the Board of Directors the discretion to negotiate and consummate the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets without further approval by the stockholders, so long as such a sale is within the parameters described above. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the Board of Directors will be able to sell all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties.

VOTE REQUIRED AND RECOMMENDATION

The Board of Directors has concluded that the sale of all or substantially all of the Genomics Business assets to one or more third parties on or before June 30, 2008 at a price of no less than $6,000,000 and on such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may approve in the event that, among others, the Asset Purchase Agreement with Ocimum and Ocimum India is terminated for any reason is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and recommends that you vote "FOR" the approval of Proposal No. 2. The affirmative vote, whether in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock is required to approve Proposal No. 2.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSAL TO
APPROVE THE SALE OF ALL OR SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE GENOMICS BUSINESS ASSETS
TO ONE OR MORE THIRD PARTIES OTHER THAN OCIMUM.

PROPOSAL NO. 3: APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT OF AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF
INCORPORATION TO CHANGE THE COMPANY'S
NAME TO ORE PHARMACEUTICALS INC.

Our Board of Directors believes it is both necessary and desirable to change the name of the Company from "Gene Logic Inc." to "Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc." As part of the acquisition of the Genomics Assets, Ocimum will acquire the right to the use of the name Gene Logic and related logos and trademarks after closing in connection with its on-going Genomics business. On October 23, 2007, our Board of Directors unanimously approved an amendment of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change our corporate name to "Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc." The full text of the proposed amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation is attached hereto as Appendix B.

Purpose of Name Change

Our purpose in changing our name to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. is to satisfy a requirement of the Asset Purchase Agreement and also to more accurately reflect our operations and business strategy after the sale of the Genomics Assets. The name "Gene Logic Inc." has been associated with our previous business operations, and we believe the name change will more accurately reflect our new business focus in drug repositioning and drug development.

If the name change is approved by our stockholders, we will attempt to have the trading symbol for our Common Stock changed from "GLGC" to a symbol more readily associated with our new name.

Consequences of Approval of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

If the amendment of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change our corporate name is approved by the stockholders, we expect that we will cause such amendment of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to be filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware promptly thereafter. The amendment would thereby amend our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with this provision and will become effective upon the filing with the Secretary of State of Delaware. If the transaction with Ocimum or its affiliate is not completed, we may decide not to change the name of the Company.

The name change will not change our capital structure and will not in any way affect the validity or transferability of stock certificates currently outstanding. We are not requiring, nor requesting, that stockholders with certificated shares obtain new stock certificates bearing the new corporate name. Stockholders with certificated shares may continue to hold their existing certificates or receive new certificates reflecting the name change upon tendering of old certificates to our transfer agent.

VOTE REQUIRED AND RECOMMENDATION

The laws of Delaware require that, in order for us to amend our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, such amendment must be approved by our Board of Directors and approved by a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.

Our Board of Directors adopted resolutions approving an amendment of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect the name change on October 23, 2007 and recommends that the stockholders vote "FOR" the amendment of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to change the Company's name to Ore Pharmaceuticals Inc. The affirmative vote, whether in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock is required to approve Proposal No. 3.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSAL TO
APPROVE AN AMENDMENT OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
TO CHANGE THE COMPANY'S NAME TO ORE PHARMACEUTICALS INC.

"Initial Listing of Assets and Liabilities" means the listing of certain assets and liabilities of the Business as of June 30, 2007 attached hereto as Exhibit 1.03(c).

"Net Current Assets" means the sum of the Inventory, Prepaid Assets, Other Current Assets, and Intercompany Receivables for Japan and Europe subsidiaries relating to the Business as provided on the Initial Listing of Assets and Liabilities or the Closing Listing of Assets and Liabilities, as applicable.

"Initial Net Current Assets" means the Net Current Assets as provided on the Initial Listing of Assets and Liabilities.

"Closing Net Current Assets" means the Net Current Assets as of the Closing Date determined in accordance with the Closing Listing of Assets and Liabilities.

"Initial Unbilled Receivables" means the Unbilled Receivables of the Business as provided on the Initial Listing of Assets and Liabilities which are equal to Three Million Three-Hundred-Forty-Two Thousand Dollars ($3,342,000).

"Closing Unbilled Receivables" means the Unbilled Receivables of the Business as of the Closing Date as provided on the Closing Listing of Assets and Liabilities.

A-7

"Net Current Assets Adjustment" means an amount equal to (i) the Closing Net Current Assets minus (ii) the Initial Net Current Assets; provided, however, that if the absolute value of such amount is less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000), such amount shall be deemed to be Zero Dollars ($0.00) for purposes of the Purchase Price Adjustment (as defined below).

"Net Unbilled Receivable Adjustment" shall be the difference between the Initial Unbilled Receivables and the Closing Unbilled Receivables, such that if the absolute value of the Closing Unbilled Receivables is larger than the absolute value of the Initial Unbilled Receivables, then for purposes of the Purchase Price Adjustment, such difference shall be a negative amount which will increase any Purchase Price Adjustment payment to the Purchasers from Company, if any, or decrease any Purchase Price Adjustment payment to Company from Purchaser, if any; provided, that if the absolute value of the Closing Unbilled Receivables is smaller than the absolute value of the Initial Unbilled Receivables, then for purposes of the Purchase Price Adjustment, such amount will be treated as equaling Zero Dollars ($0.00). (For example, if the Initial Unbilled Receivables is -$1,000 and the Closing Unbilled Receivables is -$1,600, then the Net Unbilled Receivables Adjustment would be equal to -$600).

(ii) The "Purchase Price Adjustment" (which may be a positive or negative number) will be equal to the sum of the Net Current Assets Adjustment plus the Net Unbilled Receivables Adjustment plus the net book value of the Agilent Equipment as of the Closing. If the Purchase Price Adjustment is positive, the Purchase Price Adjustment shall be paid by wire transfer by Purchaser to an account specified by Company. If the Purchase Price Adjustment is negative, the Purchase Price Adjustment shall be paid by wire transfer by Company to an account specified by Purchaser. Within ten (10) Business Days after the calculation of Net Unbilled Receivables Adjustment and the Net Current Assets Adjustment becoming binding on the Parties pursuant to Subsection 1.03(c)(iv) below, Purchaser or Company, as the case may be, shall make the wire transfer payment provided for in this Section 1.03(c)(ii).

(v) If Purchaser duly gives Company such notice of objection, and if Purchaser and Company fail to resolve the issues outstanding with respect to the Closing Listing of Assets and Liabilities within thirty (30) days of Company's receipt of Purchaser's objection notice, Purchaser and Company shall submit the issues remaining in dispute to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants (the "Independent Accountants") for resolution applying the principles, policies and practices referred to in Section
1.03(c)(iii). If issues are submitted to the Independent Accountants for resolution, (A) Company and Purchaser shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Independent Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as each party may choose to provide and the Independent Accountants may request and are available to that Party or its agents and shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accountants any material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the issues with the Independent Accountants; (B) the determination by the Independent Accountants, as set forth in a notice to be delivered to both Company and Purchaser within sixty (60) days of the submission to the Independent Accountants of the issues remaining in dispute, shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties and shall be used in the determination of the Closing Net Current Assets and Closing Unbilled Receivables; and (C) Company and Purchaser will each bear the percentage of the fees and costs of the Independent Accountants for such determination equal to (i) the dollar amount awarded to the other Party in connection with the Independent Accounts determination, divided by (ii) the total amount in dispute.

Section 1.04. Allocation. Prior to the Closing, Company and Purchaser shall use their best efforts to agree in writing to an allocation of the Purchase Price among the Acquired Assets for all purposes (including Tax and financial accounting). If Company and Purchaser have not agreed on the allocation of the Purchase Price prior to Closing, such obligation to use their best efforts to agree in writing to such an allocation shall continue after Closing and if Company and Purchaser are unable to agree on such allocation within sixty (60) days of Closing (or such earlier date as is five (5) days prior to the due date of IRS Form 8594), Ernst & Young shall be designated to make such determination and once Ernst & Young makes such determination, it shall be final and binding on the Parties. The failure of Company and Purchaser to reach agreement on a Purchase Price allocation shall not constitute grounds for termination of this Agreement by any Party and agreement by Company and Purchaser to a Purchase Price allocation shall not be a condition to the obligation of any Party to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. After the Closing, the Parties shall make consistent use of such allocation for all Tax purposes and in all filings with, and declarations and reports to, the IRS and relevant state agencies in respect thereof, including reports required to be filed under the Code. Purchaser shall prepare and deliver IRS Form 8594 to Company within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date to be filed with the IRS. In any proceedings related to the determination of any Taxes, neither Company nor Purchaser shall contend or represent that such allocation is not a correct allocation.

(a) any Tax Benefit (as defined below) inuring to the Indemnitee on account of such Loss.

A Tax Benefit shall be calculated at the then-present value, utilizing a discount rate of five percent (5%), of such benefit to be realized in the current period or reasonably anticipated to be realized in any future period by reason of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the indemnification claim;

(b) insurance proceeds actually recovered by the Indemnitee in respect of such matter (it being understood that Indemnitee will pursue such claims for insurance proceeds in good faith), net of any increase in the Indemnitee's insurance premiums directly resulting from such recovery and Indemnitee's reasonable costs in obtaining such recovery; and

A-42

(c) indemnity payments actually received by the Indemnitee from parties other than the indemnifying party hereunder in respect of such matter (it being understood that Indemnitee will pursue such claims for payment in good faith) net of Indemnitee's reasonable costs in obtaining such payments.

Section 7.06. Notice of Claims. The Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnitor in writing promptly after becoming aware of any Losses which an Indemnitee shall have determined has given rise to a claim for indemnification under this Article VII. Such written notice (a "Claim Notice") shall include an estimate of the Losses, if known, the method of computation thereof and a reference to the specific provisions of this Agreement in respect of which it seeks indemnification. As soon as practicable after the date of such Claim Notice, the Indemnitee shall provide the Indemnitor or his or her agents access to all books and records in the possession or control of the Indemnitee which the Indemnitor reasonably determines to be related to such claim. If the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee that it does not dispute the claim or the estimated amount of Losses described in such Claim Notice, or fails to notify the Indemnitee within thirty (30) days after delivery of such Claim Notice whether the Indemnitor disputes the claim or the estimated amount of Losses described in such Claim Notice, the estimated Losses in the amount specified in the Indemnitee's Claim Notice will be conclusively deemed a Loss owed by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor shall pay the amount of such Losses to the Indemnitee. If the Indemnitor has timely disputed its liability with respect to such claim or the estimated amount of Losses, the dispute shall be resolved, and the amount, if any, of Losses payable by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee shall be determined, in accordance with Section 10.08 below. It is agreed that no delay on the part of any Indemnitee in notifying the Indemnitor shall relieve the Indemnitor from its obligations hereunder, except to the extent said Indemnitor is prejudiced by such failure to give notice. The provisions of this Section 7.06 do not apply to third party claims referred to below in Section 7.07.

Section 7.07. Third Party Claims.

(a) Each of the parties must follow the procedures set forth in the following paragraphs of this Section 7.07 in order to be entitled to indemnification with respect to claims resulting from the assertion of liability by persons or entities not parties to this Agreement, including claims by any Governmental Entity for penalties, fines and assessments.

(b) The party seeking indemnification shall give prompt written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought of any assertion of liability by a third party which might give rise to a claim by the indemnified party against the indemnifying party based on the indemnity agreements contained in this Agreement, stating the nature and basis of the assertion and the amount thereof, to the extent known; provided, however, that the indemnified party's failure to give such notice shall not affect any rights or remedies of such indemnified party hereunder with respect to indemnification for Losses except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced thereby.

A-43

(c) In the event that any Legal Action is brought against an indemnified party with respect to which the indemnifying party may have liability under an indemnity agreement contained in this Agreement, the Legal Action shall, upon the written agreement of the indemnifying party that it is obligated to indemnify under such an indemnity agreement, be defended by the indemnifying party and such defense shall include all appeals or reviews which counsel for the indemnifying party shall deem appropriate. In any such Legal Action the indemnified party shall have the right to be represented by advisory counsel and accountants, at its own expense, and the indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully informed as to such Proceeding at all stages thereof, whether or not the indemnified party is represented by its own counsel.

(d) Until the indemnifying party shall have assumed the defense of any Legal Action, or if the indemnified and indemnifying parties are both named parties in such Legal Action and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it that are materially different from or in addition to the defenses available to the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of such Legal Action, but shall remain responsible for its obligation as an indemnitor), all reasonable out-of-pocket legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by the indemnified party as a result of such Legal Action shall be borne by the indemnifying party. In such event, the indemnified party shall make available to the indemnifying party and its attorneys and accountants, for review and copying, its books and records relating to such Legal Action and the parties shall render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be requested to facilitate the proper and adequate defense of any such Legal Action.

(e) The indemnifying party shall not make any settlement of any claim without the written consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if the settlement unconditionally releases the indemnified party from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such third party action, does not impose injunctive or other equitable relief against the indemnified party, and does not establish future obligations under which the indemnified party or any of its Affiliates would be required to operate; provided, however, that if the indemnified party refuses to provide its written consent to such a settlement offer, the liability of the indemnifying party with regard to such claim shall not exceed the amount offered in such settlement and the indemnified party shall thereafter be responsible for any liability in excess of the liability that would have arisen under such settlement.

Section 7.08. Subrogation Rights; No Duplication.

(a) Any Indemnitor required to make a payment under this Article VII shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to the rights of the entity to which such payment has been made for reimbursement or indemnification against third parties relating to the claim on which such payment has been based.

A-44

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Article VII to the contrary, the obligations of each Indemnitor and its Affiliates pursuant to this Article VII shall be without duplication as between entities to which such Indemnitor and its Affiliates are required to make payments.

The remedies of the parties set forth in this Article VII are intended to be the sole and exclusive remedies and sole and exclusive liabilities of the parties for all matters related to breaches of this Agreement, or the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, regardless of the legal theory pursuant to which liability is claimed, except for (i) the remedies of injunctive relief provided in Section 10.09 with respect to the specific matters to which such Section relates and (ii) in the case of fraud.

Section 7.10. Indemnity Offset. For so long as payment to Seller by Purchaser or Parent is to be made pursuant to the Promissory Note then, any payment required hereunder to be made by Seller as the Indemnitor to Purchaser or Parent as the Indemnitee, may, at Sellers sole and absolute discretion, be satisfied by offsetting and reducing the outstanding payments remaining on the Promissory Note. Seller shall within a reasonably period of time after making such election notify the Purchaser or Parent of such election.

(the "Company") to give effect to the sale of the assets of the Company's Genomics Business associated with the business of developing, operating and licensing databases of genomics and toxicogenomic data and related software and providing genomic and genetic data generation and analysis services and other related services (the "Genomics Assets") to and the assumption of certain liabilities and ongoing contractual obligations by Ocimum Biosolutions Inc. ("Ocimum") or its affliate that is expected to occur at closing as if it occurred as of the earlier dates described below. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed financial statements reflect the Company's continued ownership of its molecular diagnostics and drug repositioning assets.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2007 reflects the financial position of the Company after giving effect to the disposition of the Genomics Assets, the assumption of certain liabilities and ongoing contractual obligations and the receipt of net proceeds as if the disposition occurred on September 30, 2007.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands)

The pro forma adjustments footnoted in the unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed financial statements are explained below:

(1) These amounts reflect the disposition of the Genomics Assets, the assumption, by Ocimum or its affiliate, of certain liabilities and ongoing contractual obligations and the sale price that includes the receipt of cash proceeds of $7,000 and a $3,000 promissory note, which will be due 18 months from the date of closing. Estimated costs associated with the sale ($419) have been reflected in the net proceeds on the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet at September 30, 2007. The Company will also retain accounts receivable whether earned or unearned as of closing.

(2) Amount represents an allocation of the historical goodwill amount from the Company's Genomics Business to the disposition of the Genomics Assets.

(3) Amount represents the elimination of the historical deferred rent amount due to the assumption by Ocimum or its affiliate of a related ongoing contractual lease obligation.

(4) This column represents the operating results of the Company's Genomics Assets ("Genomics")for the respective period. These operating results were consolidated in the historical consolidated condensed financial statements of Gene Logic Inc. and are subtracted to reflect the disposition.

(5) Expenses classified as Database Production that were not eliminated as a result of the disposition of the Genomics Assets have been reclassified to Research and Development.

(6) Amount not eliminated consists of facility expenses related to ongoing contractual lease obligations that would not have been assumed by Ocimum or its affiliate.
