Re: Lock-up of Securities
Gentlemen:
I am a director of Biopure Corporation ("Biopure"). I hold 189,112 shares
of Class A Common Stock of Biopure ("Common Stock") together with associated
Common Stock warrants to purchase 37,822 additional shares (collectively, the
"Securities") which were issued in an offering on March 25, 2003 (the
"Offering"). You intend to seek stockholder approval for sales to insiders in
the Offering at the 2004 annual meeting of stockholders. At your request, in the
interim, I agree that the Securities shall not be sold, transferred, assigned,
pledged or hypothecated, nor will I vote any of the Common Stock included in the
Securities. In addition, if the Company pays a dividend on its Common Stock,
dividends on the Securities will be withheld.
Very truly yours,
Thomas A. Moore
