Exhibit 10.1

SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

This settlement agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the date on which the parties deliver executed original counterparts of this Agreement to each other (“Effective Date”), by and between Roche Diagnostics GmbH, a German corporation having its principal place of business at Sandhofer Str. 116, 68305, Mannheim, Germany and Roche Molecular Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation having its principal place of business at 4300 Hacienda Dr., Pleasanton, 94588 California (together, “Roche”) and Enzo Biochem, Inc., having its principal place of business at 527 Madison Avenue, New York, New York, and Enzo Life Sciences, Inc. (formerly known as Enzo Diagnostics, Inc.), having its principal place of business at 527 Madison Avenue, New York, New York (together “Enzo”). Each of the foregoing entities is sometimes referred to as a “Party” and they are sometimes referred to together as the “Parties.”

WHEREAS, Roche brought an action against Enzo in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York, captioned Roche Diagnostics GmbH et al. v. Enzo Biochem, Inc. et al ., Case No. 04-CV-4046-DLC, and Enzo asserted counterclaims against Roche in that action (the “NY Action”);

WHEREAS, Enzo and Roche mutually desire to resolve the differences between them regarding the NY Action subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE III

RELEASES AND DISMISSAL OF NY ACTION

3.1 Roche Release of Enzo. Roche, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and all of their respective predecessors, successors and assigns (the “Roche Releasing Parties”), releases, acquits, and forever discharges Enzo and its Affiliates and all of their respective predecessors, successors, assigns, officers, directors, managers, members, employees, agents, insurers, servants, experts, consultants, customers, distributors and attorneys (the “Enzo Released Parties”) from all liabilities, actions, causes of action, claims or demands, losses, damages, attorneys’ fees, court costs, or any other form of claim or compensation from the beginning of the world to the Effective Date arising from (a) any claims asscrted by Roche in the NY Action, including patent infringement claims relating to any product identified in Exhibit E and claims for breach of the Distribution Agreement (defined below), (b) any patent infringement claims that could have been asserted by Roche in the NY Action concerning the patents identified in Exhibit A and any claims for breach of the Distribution Agreement (defined below) that could have been asserted by Roche in the NY Action, and (c) any claims of infringement of Roche’s patents relating to Diagnostic Products of Enzo or its Affiliates, including for Enzo or its Affiliates’ customers’ use of or resale of such Diagnostic Products, on or before the Effective Date, provided that this release extends only to Enzo’s or its Affiliates’ Diagnostic Products or their customers’ use of such Diagnostic Products in the form they are sold by Enzo or its Affiliates. If any such customer combines any such Diagnostic Product with another product that itself infringes Roche’s patents, or that in combination with any such Diagnostic Product creates a new product that infringes Roche’s patents, then this release does not apply except where the infringement is due solely to the presence of such Diagnostic Product. If any such customer separates or repackages any such Diagnostic Product, and such separation or repackaging is not reasonably necessary for the use of such product or is not otherwise recommended by Enzo or its Affiliates for the use of such product, then this release does not apply. For the avoidance of doubt, any conduct or activity of Enzo Released Parties or customers of Enzo or its Affiliates that is not performed on behalf of or as intended by Enzo or its Affiliates is expressly excluded from the release of this Section 3.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 3.1 does not release, affect or otherwise limit the rights of Roche or Enzo with respect to (i) the litigation in the United States District Court, District of Delaware, captioned Enzo Life Sciences Inc. v. Roche Molecular Systems Inc., et al ., Civil Action No. 12-cv-00106, any inter partes reviews of a patent-at-issue in that litigation (“IPRs”), and/or any appeal(s) from the litigation or IPR(s) (together, the “Delaware Litigation”); (ii) any claims of infringement of one or both of U.S. Patent No. 6,992,180 and U.S. Patent No. 7,064,197 (together, the “Enzo Delaware Patents”), including but not limited to any claims of infringement of the Enzo Delaware Patents relating to Diagnostic Products; or (iii) any claims of infringement of any patent that is not listed in Exhibit A based on the manufacture, use, import, offering for sale or sale of products that are not Diagnostic Products. This release applies only to the Roche Releasing Parties and the Enzo Released Parties as they exist on the Effective Date. It does not apply to any entity or predecessor, successor, assign, officer, director, manager, member, employee, agent, insurer, servant, expert, consultant or attorney of that entity that any

-3-

Party subsequently acquires, is acquired by, merges with, or enters into any other agreement or arrangement with.

Enzo Release of Roche. Enzo, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and all of their respective predecessors, successors and assigns (the “Enzo Releasing Parties”), releases, acquits, and forever discharges Roche and its Affiliates and all of their respective predecessors, successors, assigns, officers, directors, managers, members, employees, agents, insurers, servants, experts, consultants, customers, distributors and attorneys (the “Roche Released Parties”) from all liabilities, actions, causes of action, claims or demands, losses, damages, attorneys’ fees, court costs, or any other form of claim or compensation from the beginning of the world to the Effective Date arising from (a) any claims asserted by Enzo in the NY Action, including patent infringement claims relating to any product identified in Exhibit E and claims for breach of the Distribution Agreement (defined below), (b) any patent infringement claims that could have been asserted by Enzo in the NY Action concerning the patents identified in Exhibit A and any claims for breach of the Distribution Agreement (defined below) that could have been asserted by Enzo in the NY Action, and (c) any claims of infringement of Enzo’s patents relating to Diagnostic Products of Roche or its Affiliates, including for Roche or its Affiliates’ customers’ use of or resale of such Diagnostic Products, on or before the Effective Date, provided that this release extends only to Roche’s or its Affiliates’ Diagnostic Products or their customers’ use of such Diagnostic Products in the form they are sold by Roche or its Affiliates. If any such customer combines any such Diagnostic Product with another product that itself infringes Enzo’s patents, or that in combination with any such Diagnostic Product creates a new product that infringes Enzo’s patents, then this release does not apply except where the infringement is due solely to the presence of such Diagnostic Product. If any such customer separates or repackages any such Diagnostic Product, and such separation or repackaging is not reasonably necessary for the use of such product or is not otherwise recommended by Roche or its Affiliates for the use of such product, then this release does not apply. For the avoidance of doubt, any conduct or activity of Roche Released Parties or customers of Roche or its Affiliates that is not performed on behalf of or as intended by Roche or its Affiliates is expressly excluded from the release of this Section 3.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 3.2 does not release, affect or otherwise limit the rights of Roche or Enzo with respect to (i) the Delaware Litigation; (ii) any claims of infringement of one or both of the Enzo Delaware Patents, including but not limited to any claims of infringement of the Enzo Delaware Patents relating to Diagnostic Products; or (iii) any claims of infringement of any patent that is not listed in Exhibit A based on the manufacture, use, import, offering for sale or sale of products that are not Diagnostic Products. Section 3.2 also does not release, affect, or limit any claims of infringement of any patent asserted by Enzo in the litigations listed in Exhibit C.

3.2 This limited release is not a license to any patents or other intellectual property rights of Enzo, and does not convey any right to any Enzo patents or to any products that constitute or incorporate any Diagnostic Products. This release applies only to the Enzo Releasing Parties and the Roche Released Parties. It does not apply to any entity or predecessor, successor, assign, officer, director, manager, member, employee, agent, insurer, servant, expert, consultant or attorney of that entity that any Party subsequently acquires, is acquired by, merges with, or enters into any other agreement or arrangement with.

3.3 Releases. The releases specifically provided in this Agreement include an express, informed, knowing, and voluntary waiver and relinquishment to the fullest extent permitted by law. In this connection, the Parties acknowledge that they may have sustained damages, losses, costs, or expenses that are presently unknown and unsuspected and that such damages, losses, costs, or expenses as may have been sustained may give rise to additional damages, losses, costs, or expenses in the future. The Parties acknowledge, and waive any rights under, California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

or any similar or comparable law of any state, territory or jurisdiction, foreign or domestic, including the United States and federal, state, county or local jurisdiction which is similar, comparable, or equivalent to Section 1542 of the California Civil Code.

3.4 Termination of the Distribution Agreement. The Enzo Releasing Parties and the Roche Releasing Parties hereby acknowledge that the Distribution and Supply Agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”), dated April 25, 1994, by and among Enzo Biochem, Inc. and Enzo Diagnostics, Inc. (now known as Enzo Life Sciences, Inc.) and Corange International Limited (acquired by Roche in March 1998), is terminated. For the avoidance of doubt, the Enzo Releasing Parties and the Roche Releasing Parties hereby release all obligations for any performance, and any and all claims for breach, with respect to the Distribution Agreement.

3.5 Agreement Obligations Not Released. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parties reserve all rights and remedies, including damages and equitable relief, for breach of this Agreement and nothing herein releases any Party from its respective obligations under this Agreement or prevents any Party from enforcing the terms and conditions of this Agreement against any other Party.

3.6 Joint Stipulation of Dismissal with Prejudice. Upon Enzo’s acknowledgment of the receipt of payment described in Section 2.1, the Parties will file a Joint Stipulation of Dismissal with Prejudice in the Southern District of New York in the form set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto. The Parties shall promptly proceed with any and all additional procedures needed to dismiss with prejudice the NY Action including any modifications to the forms to comply with any local rules or procedures regarding the entry of stipulated dismissals. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is enforceable according to its terms with respect to final dismissal with prejudice of the NY Action.

3.7 Mutual Standstill/Agreement Not to Sue. For a period of two years following the Effective Date (the “Standstill Period”), the Enzo Releasing Parties agree that they will not bring, assert or maintain, directly or indirectly, any claim, demand, liability and cause of action, in law or in equity, for the infringement of any patent against Roche, its Affiliates, or their customers for such customer’s use of or resale of Roche’s or its Affiliates’ products or Roche’s or its Affiliates’ services. For the Standstill Period, the Roche Releasing Parties agree that they

-5-

will not bring, assert or maintain, directly or indirectly, any claim, demand, liability and cause of action, in law or in equity, for the infringement of any patent against Enzo, its Affiliates, or their customers for such customer’s use of or resale of Enzo’s or its Affiliates’ products or Enzo’s or its Affiliates’ services. This standstill does not affect or otherwise limit any Party’s right to litigate or appeal any pending action (other than the NY Action), including but not limited to those listed in Exhibit C attached hereto (and to the extent not listed in Exhibit C, also including the Delaware Litigation), or any other pending litigation or future litigation involving one or both of the Enzo Delaware Patents. This Standstill Period applies only to the Enzo Releasing Parties and the Roche Releasing Parties as they exist on the Effective Date, and not to any claim, demand, liability or cause of action by or against any entity that any Party subsequently acquires, is acquired by, merges with, or enters into any other agreement or arrangement with.

3.8 No Effect On Other Actions. This Agreement, including the releases and standstill herein, do not affect any other pending action by Enzo, including but not limited to those listed in Exhibit C attached hereto (and to the extent not listed in Exhibit C, also including the Delaware Litigation), or any other pending litigation or future litigation involving one or both of the Enzo Delaware Patents. This Agreement shall not be admissible in any other pending action by Enzo, including but not limited to the actions listed in Exhibit C attached hereto, the Delaware Litigation, or any other pending litigation or litigation filed in the future involving one or both of the Enzo Delaware Patents.

A waiver may only occur pursuant to the express written permission of an authorized officer of the Party against whom the waiver is asserted.

b. This Agreement is the result of negotiations between the Parties and accordingly shall not be construed for or against any one Party merely because such Party drafted this Agreement or any portion thereof.
