2.10           Procedure for Exchange of Cocrystal Capital Stock.

(b)           Immediately after the Effective Time, (i) Biozone shall furnish to Action Stock Transfer Co. (the “Exchange Agent”) a list of the record owners, addresses, certificate numbers, certificate amounts and certificate dates with respect to  Cocrystal Capital Stock, and (ii) Biozone shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail a letter of transmittal (with instructions for its use) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C to each record holder of outstanding Cocrystal Capital Stock for the holder thereof to use in surrendering the certificates which represented his Cocrystal Capital Stock or in exchange for a certificate representing the number of Biozone Series B to which he is entitled.

(c)           Biozone shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Biozone Series B (with a record date at or after the Effective Time) to any record holder of outstanding Cocrystal Capital Stock until the holder surrenders for exchange his certificates which represented such Cocrystal Capital Stock.

8

RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS

OF

SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

        The undersigned, Elliot Maza, does hereby certify that:

                1. He is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Biozone Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Corporation”).

                2. The Corporation is authorized to issue 5,000,000shares of preferred stock, of which none are presently issued and outstanding.

                3. The following resolutions were duly adopted by the board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”):

        WHEREAS, the articles of incorporation of the Corporation provide for a class of its authorized stock known as preferred stock, consisting of 5,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value per share, issuable from time to time in one or more series;

        WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is authorized to fix the dividend rights, dividend rate, voting rights, conversion rights, rights and terms of redemption and liquidation preferences of any wholly unissued series of preferred stock and the number of shares constituting any series and the designation thereof, of any of them; and

        WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Board of Directors, pursuant to its authority as aforesaid, to fix the rights, preferences, restrictions and other matters relating to a series of the preferred stock designated “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock,” which shall consist of  1,000,000 shares of the preferred stock which the Corporation has the authority to issue, as follows:

        NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors does hereby provide for the issuance of a series of preferred stock designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B”) for cash or exchange of other securities, rights or property and does hereby fix and determine the rights, preferences, restrictions and other matters relating to the Series B as follows:

Section 1.                      Liquidation.

(a)           Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the business of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, each holder of Series B shall be entitled to receive, for each share thereof, out of assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, a preferential amount in cash equal to (and not more than) the Stated Value.  All preferential amounts to be paid to the holders of Series B in connection with such liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall be paid before the payment or setting apart for payment of any amount for, or the distribution of any assets of the Corporation to the holders of (i) any other class or series of capital stock whose terms expressly provide that the holders of Series B should receive preferential payment with respect to such distribution (to the extent of such preference) and (ii) the Corporation's Common Stock.  If upon any such distribution the assets of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay the holders of the outstanding shares of Series B (or the holders of any class or series of capital stock ranking on a parity with the  Series B as to distributions in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation) the full amounts to which they shall be entitled, such holders shall share ratably in any distribution of assets in accordance with the sums which would be payable on such distribution if all sums payable thereon were paid in full.

(b)           Any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, or any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, shall be made in cash to the extent possible.  Whenever any such distribution shall be paid in property other than cash, the value of such distribution shall be the fair market value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

Section 2.                      Voting.  Except as otherwise expressly required by law or expressly provided herein, the holders of Series B shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to stockholders of the Corporation and each share of Series B held shall be entitled to the number of  votes per share that it will have on an as converted basis.  Except as otherwise required by law or expressly provided herein, the holders of shares of Series B shall vote together with the holders of Common Stock on all matters and shall not vote as a separate class.

Section 3.                      Automatic Conversion.  Each share of Series B shall automatically, and without any further action on the part of the holder, convert into 205.08308640 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, (with the total number of shares issued to each holder rounded up to the nearest share) of the Corporation upon action by the Corporation to increase its authorized Common Stock or combine its shares of Common Stock to permit full conversion of the Series B into Common Stock.

(c)           During the Employment Term, the Executive shall serve as a member of the Board, and the Executive agrees to serve as a member of the Board without additional compensation.  Upon the Executive’s termination of employment from the Company for any reason, unless otherwise specified in a written agreement between the Executive and the Company, the Executive will be deemed to have resigned from all offices, directorships, and other employment positions if any, then held with the Company or any of its affiliates, and agrees to take all actions reasonably requested by the Company to effectuate the foregoin

3.           BASE SALARY.  The Company agrees to pay the Executive a base salary (the “Base Salary”) at an annual rate of $250,000, payable in accordance with the regular payroll practices of the Company, but not less frequently than monthly.  The Executive’s Base Salary shall be subject to review by the Board (or a committee thereof) at least annually and may be increased, but not decreased, from time to time by the Board.  The base salary as determined herein from time to time shall constitute “Base Salary” for purposes of this Agreement.

4.           BONUSES.

(a)                                ANNUAL BONUS.  With respect to each full calendar year during the Employment Term, the Executive shall be eligible to earn an annual, performance-based bonus (an “Annual Bonus”) with a target bonus value equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”) based upon the achievement of performance targets, which shall be established by the Board (or a committee thereof) in consultation with the Executive within the first 90 days of each calendar year during the Employment Term, with the actual amount of the Annual Bonus for a particular year determined by the Board (or a committee thereof) in its discretion.  The Board (or a committee thereof) shall consider the Executive’s performance from the Effective Date through the 2014 calendar year when determining the Executive’s Annual Bonus for the 2014 calendar year.  Subject to Section 8 below, in order to be eligible for an Annual Bonus, the Executive must remain employed for the entire calendar year for which the performance targets will have been set.  Any Annual Bonus earned by the Executive will be paid no later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Annual Bonus is being measured.  The Executive’s Target Bonus shall be subject to review by the Board (or a committee thereof) at least annually and may be increased, but not decreased, from time to time by the Board.

5.           EQUITY.

(a)           THE OPTION. Subject to Board approval, not later than the first Board meeting following the Effective Date, the Company will grant to the Executive a stock option (the “Option”) under the Plan for the purchase of 24,598,073.50 shares of Common Stock at a price per share equal to the fair market value of such Common Stock, as determined by the Board, at the time of grant.  The Option will include a four-year vesting schedule, under which the Option will vest as to twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares subject to the Option twelve (12) months following the Effective Date and the Option will vest as to the remaining shares in substantially equal monthly installments over the following three years, subject to the Executive’s continued employment with the Company on the applicable vesting date (the “Ordinary Vesting Schedule”).  The Option will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Executive’s option agreement (the “Stock Option Agreement”), provided that in the event of a conflict between this Section 5 and the Stock Option Agreement or the Plan, this Section 5 shall control.

(a)           compliance with the provisions of Section 11 hereof;

(b)           delivery to the Company of the executed Agreement and General Release (the “General Release”), which shall be in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (with such changes therein or additions thereto as needed under then applicable law to give effect to its intent and purpose) within 21 days following the date of termination of employment, and permitting the General Release to become effective in accordance with its terms; and

10.           SECTION 4999 EXCISE TAX.

(a)           Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other agreement between the Executive and the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) to the contrary, in the event that the provisions of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) relating to “parachute payments” (as defined in the Code) shall be applicable to any payment or benefit received or to be received by the Executive from the Company or its affiliates in connection with a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (a “Change of Control Transaction”) (collectively, “Payments”), then (a) at the Executive’s request, the Company agrees to submit such Payments to a shareholder vote intended to comply with the provisions of Section 280G(b)(5) of the Code, or (b) in the event that the Executive does not request a shareholder vote as set forth above or the provisions of Section 280G(b)(5) are inapplicable to the Company, then any such Payments shall be equal to the “Reduced Amount” where the Reduced Amount is (1) the largest portion of the Payments that will result in no portion of such Payments being subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or (2) the entire amount of the Payments otherwise scheduled to be paid (without reduction), whichever of the forgoing amounts after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes and the excise tax of Section 4999 of the Code (all computed at the highest applicable merged rate, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of all state and local taxes), results in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments.  If subsection (1) above applies and a reduced amount of the Payments is payable, then any reduction of Payments required by such provision shall occur in the following order:  (i) first, a reduction of any Payments that are subject to Section 409A on a pro-rata basis or such other manner that complies with Section 409A, as reasonably determined by the Company, and (ii) second, a reduction of any Payments that are exempt from Section 409A in a manner the Company reasonably determines will provide the Executive with the greatest post-reduction economic benefit.

(b)           In connection with a Change of Control Transaction, the Company shall engage a certified public accounting firm (“Accountants”) to perform the calculations to determine if the Payments to the Executive would reasonably be subject to Section 280G of the Code, and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) cause the Accountants to finalize such calculations and (2) deliver such calculations and supporting documentation to the Executive, by no later than five (5) days before the closing of the Change of Control Transaction.  If the Executive, in good faith, disagrees with or disputes any of the assumptions, findings or determinations of the Accountants in respect of such calculations, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to cause its Accountants to consider in good faith the Executive’s position and revise such calculations if the Accountants determine that it is more-likely-than-not, based on the technical merits, that the Executive’s position will be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

9

11.           CONFIDENTIALITY AND POST-EMPLOYMENT OBLIGATIONS.  As a condition of employment, the Executive agrees to execute and abide by the Company’s current form of Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement (“Confidentiality Agreement”), which may be amended by the parties from time to time without regard to this Agreement.  The Confidentiality Agreement contains provisions that are intended by the parties to survive and do survive termination of this Agreement.

12.           ASSIGNMENT.

17.           MISCELLANEOUS.  No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and such officer or director of the Company as may be designated or authorized by the Board.  No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.  This Agreement together with all exhibits hereto and the Confidentiality Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein.  No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement.  The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Washington without regard to its conflicts of law principles.

18.           SECTION 409A.

(a)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the following provisions apply to the extent severance benefits provided herein are subject to Section 409A of Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively “Section 409A”).  Severance benefits payable upon a termination of employment shall not commence until Executive has a “separation from service” for purposes of Section 409A.   Each installment of severance benefits is a separate “payment” for purposes of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i), and the severance benefits are intended to satisfy the exemptions from application of Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A-1(b)(4), 1.409A-1(b)(5) and 1.409A-1(b)(9).  However, if such exemptions are not available and Executive is, upon separation from service, a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, then, solely to the extent necessary to avoid adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A, the timing of the severance benefits shall be delayed until the earlier of (i) six (6) months and one day after Executive’s separation from service, or (ii) Executive’s death.  The parties acknowledge that the exemptions from application of Section 409A to severance benefits are fact specific, and any later amendment of this Agreement to alter the timing, amount or conditions that will trigger payment of severance benefits may preclude the ability of severance benefits provided under this Agreement to qualify for an exemption.

(b)           It is intended that this Agreement shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A, and any ambiguity contained herein shall be interpreted in such manner so as to avoid adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall in no event be obligated to indemnify the Executive for any taxes or interest that may be assessed by the IRS pursuant to Section 409A of the Code on payments made pursuant to this Agreement.

19.           MITIGATION OF DAMAGES.  In no event shall the Executive be obliged to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the severance benefits payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor shall the amount of any severance benefit hereunder be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another employer, except as set forth in this Agreement.

11

20.           REPRESENTATIONS.  The Executive represents and warrants to the Company that the Executive has the legal right to enter into this Agreement and to perform all of the obligations on the Executive’s part to be performed hereunder in accordance with its terms and that the Executive is not a party to any agreement or understanding, written or oral, which could prevent the Executive from entering into this Agreement or performing all of the Executive’s obligations hereunder.  The Executive further represents and warrants that he has been advised to consult with an attorney and that he has been represented by the attorney of his choosing during the negotiation of this Agreement (or chosen not to be so represented), that he has consulted with his attorney before executing this Agreement (or chosen not to consult an attorney), that he has carefully read and fully understand all of the provisions of this Agreement and that he is voluntarily entering into this Agreement.

21.           NON-DISPARAGEMENT.  Both during and after the Employment Term, the Executive and the Company (through its officers and directors) agree not to disparage the other party, and the other party’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders, affiliates and agents, in any manner likely to be harmful to them or their business, business reputation or personal reputation; provided that both the Executive and the Company may respond accurately and fully to any question, inquiry or request for information when required by legal process and provided further that nothing in this Section 21 shall preclude any party from making truthful statements that are reasonably necessary or to enforce or defend the party’s rights under this Agreement.

22.           WITHHOLDING.  The Company may withhold from any and all amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

23.           SURVIVAL.  The respective obligations of, and benefits afforded to, the Company and the Executive which by their express terms or clear intent survive termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 8 through 26, inclusive, of this Agreement, will survive termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, and will remain in full force and effect according to their terms.

24.           AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES.  The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent.  Neither the Executive nor the Company shall be entitled to any presumption in connection with any determination made hereunder in connection with any arbitration, judicial or administrative proceeding relating to or arising under this Agreement.

25.           DISPUTE RESOLUTION.  In the event of any controversy, dispute or claim between the parties under, arising out of or related to this Agreement (including but not limited to, claims relating to breach, termination of this Agreement, or the performance of a party under this Agreement) whether based on contract, tort, statute or other legal theory (collectively referred to hereinafter as “Disputes”), the parties shall follow the dispute resolution procedures set forth below.  Any Dispute shall be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS (“JAMS”) then in force, and that the arbitration hearings shall be held in Bothell, WA.  The parties agree to (i) appoint an arbitrator who is knowledgeable in employment and human resource matters and, to the extent possible, the industry in which the Company operates, and instruct the arbitrator to follow substantive rules of law; (ii) require the testimony to be transcribed; and (iii) require the award to be accompanied by findings of fact and a statement of reasons for the decision.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to permit discovery, to the extent deemed appropriate by the arbitrator, upon request of a party, but such discovery process shall continue for no more than thirty (30) days.  The arbitrator shall have no power or authority to add to or detract from the written agreement of the parties.  If the parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator within ten (10) days after demand by either of them, either or both parties may request JAMS name a panel of five (5) arbitrators.  The Company shall strike the names of two (2) off this list, the Executive shall also strike two (2) names, and the remaining name shall be the arbitrator.  The Company and the Executive shall each pay for their own attorneys’ fees and expenses and their pro rata share of the JAMS fees and expenses.  Any award shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the parties and a judgment rendered thereon may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.  This Section shall not limit the right of any party to sue for injunctive relief for a breach of the obligations of this Agreement, including but not limited to the obligations in Section 11 or the Confidentiality Agreement.

12

26.           CLAW-BACK.  All compensation received by the Executive from the Company will be subject to the provisions of any claw-back policy implemented by the Company to comply with applicable law or regulation (including stock exchange rules), including, without limitation, any claw-back policy adopted to comply with the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder; provided that any claw-back policy will be applied to the Executive in a manner consistent with all other executive officers of the Company subject to the policy and no more extensively than is necessary to comply with applicable law or the policy.

6.           Affirmations.  Employee affirms Executive has not filed, has not caused to be filed, and is not presently a party to, any claim, complaint, or action against Employer in any forum.  Employee further affirms that the Executive has been paid and/or has received all compensation, wages, bonuses, commissions, and/or benefits to which Executive may be entitled and no other compensation, wages, bonuses, commissions and/or benefits are due to Executive, except as provided in Section 8 of the Employment Agreement.  Employee also affirms Executive has no known workplace injuries.

8.           Governing Law and Interpretation.  This Agreement and General Release shall be governed and conformed in accordance with the laws of the state of Washington without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.  In the event Employee or Employer breaches any provision of this Agreement and General Release, Employee and Employer affirm either may institute an action to specifically enforce any term or terms of this Agreement and General Release.  Should any provision of this Agreement and General Release be declared illegal or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction and should the provision be incapable of being modified to be enforceable, such provision shall immediately become null and void, leaving the remainder of this Agreement and General Release in full force and effect.  Nothing herein, however, shall operate to void or nullify any general release language contained in the Agreement and General Release.

9.           No Admission of Wrongdoing.  Employee agrees neither this Agreement and General Release nor the furnishing of the consideration for this Agreement and General Release shall be deemed or construed at any time for any purpose as an admission by Employer of any liability or unlawful conduct of any kind.

10.           Non-Disparagement. Employee and Employer (through its officers and directors) agree not to disparage the other party, and the other party’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents, in any manner likely to be harmful to them or their business, business reputation or personal reputation; provided that both Employee and Employer may respond accurately and fully to any question, inquiry or request for information when required by legal process and provided further that nothing in this Section 10 shall preclude Employer or Employee from making truthful statements that are reasonably necessary or to enforce or defend the party’s rights under this Agreement and General Release.

11.           Amendment.  This Agreement and General Release may not be modified, altered or changed except upon express written consent of both parties wherein specific reference is made to this Agreement and General Release.

12.           Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and General Release and the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined in the Employment Agreement) sets forth the entire agreement between the parties hereto and fully supersedes any prior agreements or understandings between the parties; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement and General Release, the provisions in the Employment Agreement which are intended to survive termination of the Employment Agreement, including but not limited to those contained in Section 11 thereof, shall survive and continue in full force and effect.  Employee acknowledges Executive has not relied on any representations, promises, or agreements of any kind made to Executive in connection with Executive’s decision to accept this Agreement and General Release.

13.           ADEA. Employee understands and acknowledges that Employee is waiving and releasing any rights Executive may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”), and that this waiver and release is knowing and voluntary.  Employee understands and agrees that this waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise under the ADEA after the date Executive signs this Agreement and General Release.  Employee understands and acknowledges that the consideration given for this waiver and release is in addition to anything of value to which Employee was already entitled.  Employee further understands and acknowledges that Employee has been advised by this writing that nothing in this Agreement prevents or precludes Executive from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties, or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law.

WHEREAS, the Executive wishes to be employed by the Company and to provide employment services to the Company in return for certain compensation and benefits;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual promises contained herein and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.           EMPLOYMENT TERM.  The Company hereby offers to employ the Executive, and the Executive hereby accepts employment by the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, during the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the date of the termination of the Executive’s employment in accordance with Section 7 below (the “Employment Term”).  The Executive shall be employed at will, meaning that either the Company or the Executive may terminate this Agreement and the Executive’s employment at anytime, for any reason or no reason, with or without cause, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

2.           POSITION & DUTIES.

(a)           Except as provided in Section 2(b) below, the Executive shall serve as the Company’s President during the Employment Term.  As President, the Executive shall have such duties, authorities and responsibilities as are commensurate with the position of President and such other duties and responsibilities as the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) shall designate that are consistent with the Executive’s position as President.

(b)           During the Employment Term, the Executive agrees to devote his full business time, attention and energies to the performance of all of the lawful duties, responsibilities and authority that may be assigned to him hereunder.  Nothing contained in this Agreement will preclude the Executive from (i) devoting time to personal and family investments, (ii) serving as a director of any company or (iii) from participating in charitable or industry associations, in each case, provided that such activities or services do not (x) materially interfere with the Executive’s performance of duties hereunder or (y) violate the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined below).

(c)           During the Employment Term, the Executive shall serve as a member of the Board, and the Executive agrees to serve as a member of the Board without additional compensation.  Upon the Executive’s termination of employment from the Company for any reason, unless otherwise specified in a written agreement between the Executive and the Company, the Executive will be deemed to have resigned from all offices, directorships, and other employment positions if any, then held with the Company or any of its affiliates, and agrees to take all actions reasonably requested by the Company to effectuate the foregoin

3.           BASE SALARY.  The Company agrees to pay the Executive a base salary (the “Base Salary”) at an annual rate of $180,000, payable in accordance with the regular payroll practices of the Company, but not less frequently than monthly.  The Executive’s Base Salary shall be subject to review by the Board (or a committee thereof) at least annually and may be increased, but not decreased, from time to time by the Board.  The base salary as determined herein from time to time shall constitute “Base Salary” for purposes of this Agreement.

4.           BONUSES.

(a)                                ANNUAL BONUS.  With respect to each full calendar year during the Employment Term, the Executive shall be eligible to earn an annual, performance-based bonus (an “Annual Bonus”) with a target bonus value equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”) based upon the achievement of performance targets, which shall be established by the Board (or a committee thereof) in consultation with the Executive within the first 90 days of each calendar year during the Employment Term, with the actual amount of the Annual Bonus for a particular year determined by the Board (or a committee thereof) in its discretion.  The Board (or a committee thereof) shall consider the Executive’s performance from the Effective Date through the 2014 calendar year when determining the Executive’s Annual Bonus for the 2014 calendar year.  Subject to Section 8 below, in order to be eligible for an Annual Bonus, the Executive must remain employed for the entire calendar year for which the performance targets will have been set.  Any Annual Bonus earned by the Executive will be paid no later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Annual Bonus is being measured.  The Executive’s Target Bonus shall be subject to review by the Board (or a committee thereof) at least annually and may be increased, but not decreased, from time to time by the Board.

5.           EQUITY.

(a)           THE OPTION. Subject to Board approval, not later than the first Board meeting following the Effective Date, the Company will grant to the Executive a stock option (the “Option”) under the Plan for the purchase of 6,149,518.38 shares of Common Stock at a price per share equal to the fair market value of such Common Stock, as determined by the Board, at the time of grant.  The Option will include a four-year vesting schedule, under which the Option will vest as to twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares subject to the Option twelve (12) months following the Effective Date and the Option will vest as to the remaining shares in substantially equal monthly installments over the following three years, subject to the Executive’s continued employment with the Company on the applicable vesting date (the “Ordinary Vesting Schedule”).  The Option will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Executive’s option agreement (the “Stock Option Agreement”), provided that in the event of a conflict between this Section 5 and the Stock Option Agreement or the Plan, this Section 5 shall control.

(b)           CHANGE OF CONTROL.

(f)           WITHOUT GOOD REASON.  The Executive shall provide two (2) weeks’ prior written notice (the “Transition Period”) to the Company of the Executive’s intended termination of employment without Good Reason (“Voluntary Termination”).  During the Transition Period, the Executive shall assist and advise the Company in any transition of business, customers, prospects, projects and strategic planning, and the Company shall pay the pro rata portion of the Executive’s Base Salary and benefits through the end of the Transition Period.  The Company may, in its sole discretion, upon written notice to the Executive, make such termination of employment effective earlier than the expiration of the Transition Period (“Early Termination Right”), but it shall pay the pro rata portion of the Executive’s Base Salary and benefits through the earlier of: the end of the Transition Period, or the date that the Executive accepts employment or a consulting engagement from a third party.

8.           CONSEQUENCES OF TERMINATION.  Any termination payments made and benefits provided under this Agreement to the Executive shall be in lieu of any termination or severance payments or benefits for which the Executive may be eligible under any of the plans, policies or programs of the Company or its affiliates as may be in effect from time to time.  Subject to satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Section 9, the following amounts and benefits shall be due to the Executive:

5

(a)           DISABILITY.  Upon employment termination due to Disability, the Company shall pay or provide the Executive: (i) any unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination and any accrued vacation; (ii) reimbursement for any unreimbursed expenses owed to Executive; and (iii) all other payments and benefits to which the Executive is entitled under the terms of any applicable compensation arrangement or benefit, equity or other plan or program, including but not limited to any applicable insurance benefits, payable on the next regularly scheduled Company payroll date following the date of termination or earlier if required by applicable law (collectively, “Accrued Amounts”).  In addition, upon the Executive’s termination due to Disability, the Company shall pay the amounts described in Sections 8(d)(3) and 8(d)(4) to the Executive.

(b)           DEATH.  In the event the Employment Term ends on account of the Executive’s death, the Executive’s estate (or to the extent a beneficiary has been designated in accordance with a program, the beneficiary under such program) shall be entitled to any Accrued Amounts, including but not limited to proceeds from any Company sponsored life insurance programs.  In addition, upon the Executive’s death, the Company shall pay the amounts described in Sections 8(d)(3) and 8(d)(4) to the Executive’s estate.

(c)           TERMINATION FOR CAUSE OR WITHOUT GOOD REASON.  If the Executive’s employment should be terminated (i) by the Company for Cause, or (ii) by the Executive without Good Reason, the Company shall pay to the Executive any Accrued Amounts only, and shall not be obligated to make any additional payments to the Executive.

(d)           TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE OR FOR GOOD REASON.  If the Executive’s employment by the Company is terminated by the Company other than for Cause (and not due to Disability or death) or by the Executive for Good Reason, other than in circumstances described in Section 8(e), then the Company shall pay or provide the Executive with the Accrued Amounts and subject to compliance with Section 11:

(1)           continued payment of the Executive’s Base Salary as in effect immediately preceding the last day of the Employment Term for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination date (the “Salary Severance Period”) in accordance with the Company’s ordinary payroll practices (for purposes of calculating the Executive’s severance benefits, the Executive’s Base Salary shall be calculated based on the rate in effect prior to any material reduction in Base Salary that would give the Executive the right to resign for Good Reason (as provided in Section 7(e)(1)));

(2)           if the Executive timely elects continued coverage under COBRA for himself and his covered dependents under the Company’s group health plans following such termination, then the Company shall pay the COBRA premiums necessary to continue the Executive’s and his covered dependents’ health insurance coverage in effect on the termination date until the earliest of (i) twelve (12) months following the termination date (the “COBRA Severance Period”); (ii) the date when the Executive becomes eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment; or (iii) the date the Executive ceases to be eligible for COBRA continuation coverage for any reason, including plan termination (such period from the termination date through the earlier of (i)-(iii), the “COBRA Payment Period”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Company determines that its payment of COBRA premiums on the Executive’s behalf would result in a violation of applicable law (including but not limited to the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the 2010 Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act), then in lieu of paying COBRA premiums pursuant to this Section 8(d)(2), the Company shall pay the Executive on the last day of each remaining month of the COBRA Payment Period, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA premium for such month, subject to applicable tax withholding (such amount, the “Special Severance Payment”), such Special Severance Payment to be made without regard to the Executive’s payment of COBRA premiums.  Nothing in this Agreement shall deprive the Executive of his rights under COBRA or ERISA for benefits under plans and policies arising under his employment by the Company.

6

(3)           in the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated after December 31 of any performance year, but prior to the Annual Bonus payment date for such performance year, the Executive shall receive: (i) the amount of the Annual Bonus as determined by the Board in good faith for the performance year immediately prior to the year in which the Executive’s termination occurs if the Company has not determined the amount of the Executive’s Annual Bonus as of the date of the Executive’s termination; or (ii) the amount of the Annual Bonus as already determined by the Board in good faith for the performance year immediately prior to the year in which the Executive’s termination occurs if the Company has already determined the amount of the Executive’s Annual Bonus as of the date of the Executive’s termination, payable in either case as a lump sum at the same time annual bonuses are paid to the Company’s executives generally, but no later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Annual Bonus is being measured;

(4)           in the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated: (i) on or before the date Annual Bonus performance goals are established for the performance year in which the Executive’s termination occurs, the Executive shall receive a pro-rata portion of the Executive’s Target Bonus for the performance year in which the Executive’s termination occurs, with such pro-rata portion calculated based upon the number of days that the Executive was employed during such performance year divided by the total number of days in such performance year; or (ii) after the date Annual Bonus performance goals are established for the performance year in which the Executive’s termination occurs, the Executive shall receive a pro-rata portion of the Executive’s Target Bonus for the performance year in which the Executive’s termination occurs, with such pro-rata portion calculated based upon the Executive’s achievement of performance goals as determined by the Board in good faith, payable in either case as a lump sum payment on the Company’s first ordinary payroll date occurring on or after the General Release effective date (namely, the date it can no longer be revoked) or as soon thereafter as is reasonable practicable thereafter; and

(5)           twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares subject to the Option shall vest.  In addition, the time period that the Executive may have to exercise the Option shall be extended for a period equal to the shorter of (i) twelve (12) months, or (ii) the remaining term of the award.

7

(e)           TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE OR FOR GOOD REASON FOLLOWING A CHANGE OF CONTROL.  If the Executive’s employment by the Company is terminated by the Company other than for Cause (and not due to Disability or death), or by the Executive for Good Reason, in either case on or within twenty-four (24) months immediately following a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan, disregarding for this purpose clause (d) of such definition), then the Company shall pay or provide the Executive with the Accrued Amounts and all of the benefits described in Section 8(d) above, subject to compliance with Section 11; provided that: (i) the Salary Severance Period defined in Section 8(d)(1) shall be increased to a total of eighteen (18) months following the termination date; (ii) the COBRA Severance Period defined in Section 8(d)(2) shall be increased to a total of eighteen (18) months following the termination date; (iii) in lieu of the pro-rata bonus described in Section 8(d)(4), the Company shall pay the Executive the full Target Bonus for the performance year in which the Executive’s termination occurs, payable as a lump sum payment on the Company’s first ordinary payroll date occurring on or after the General Release effective date (namely, the date it can no longer be revoked); and (iv) in lieu of the vesting acceleration described in Section 8(d)(5), all of the outstanding unvested shares subject to the Option shall become fully vested and the time period that the Executive may have to exercise the Option shall be extended for a period equal to the shorter of (i) twelve (12) months, or (ii) the remaining term of the award.

9.           CONDITIONS.  Any payments or benefits made or provided pursuant to Section 8 (other than Accrued Amounts) are subject to the Executive’s (or, in the event of the Executive’s death, the beneficiary’s or estate’s, or in the event of the Executive’s Disability, the guardian’s):

(a)           compliance with the provisions of Section 11 hereof;

(b)           delivery to the Company of the executed Agreement and General Release (the “General Release”), which shall be in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (with such changes therein or additions thereto as needed under then applicable law to give effect to its intent and purpose) within 21 days following the date of termination of employment, and permitting the General Release to become effective in accordance with its terms; and

(c)           delivery to the Company of a resignation from all offices, directorships and fiduciary positions with the Company, its affiliates and employee benefit plans.

Notwithstanding the due date of any post-employment payments, any amounts due following a termination under this Agreement (other than Accrued Amounts) shall not be due until after the expiration of any revocation period applicable to the General Release without the Executive having revoked such General Release, and any such amounts shall be paid or commence being paid to the Executive on the Company’s first ordinary payroll date occurring on or after the expiration of such revocation period without the occurrence of a revocation by the Executive (or such later date as may be required under Section 18 or the final sentence of this Section 9).  Nevertheless (and regardless of whether the General Release has been executed by the Executive), upon any termination of Executive’s employment, Executive shall be entitled to receive any Accrued Amounts, payable after the date of termination in accordance with the Company’s applicable plan, program, policy or payroll procedures.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any severance pay or benefits are deferred compensation under Section 409A (as defined below), and the period during which the Executive may sign the General Release begins in one calendar year and ends in another, then the severance pay or benefit shall not be paid or the first payment shall not occur until the later calendar year.

8

10.           SECTION 4999 EXCISE TAX.

(a)           Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other agreement between the Executive and the Company (or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) to the contrary, in the event that the provisions of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) relating to “parachute payments” (as defined in the Code) shall be applicable to any payment or benefit received or to be received by the Executive from the Company or its affiliates in connection with a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code (a “Change of Control Transaction”) (collectively, “Payments”), then (a) at the Executive’s request, the Company agrees to submit such Payments to a shareholder vote intended to comply with the provisions of Section 280G(b)(5) of the Code, or (b) in the event that the Executive does not request a shareholder vote as set forth above or the provisions of Section 280G(b)(5) are inapplicable to the Company, then any such Payments shall be equal to the “Reduced Amount” where the Reduced Amount is (1) the largest portion of the Payments that will result in no portion of such Payments being subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or (2) the entire amount of the Payments otherwise scheduled to be paid (without reduction), whichever of the forgoing amounts after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes and the excise tax of Section 4999 of the Code (all computed at the highest applicable merged rate, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of all state and local taxes), results in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments.  If subsection (1) above applies and a reduced amount of the Payments is payable, then any reduction of Payments required by such provision shall occur in the following order:  (i) first, a reduction of any Payments that are subject to Section 409A on a pro-rata basis or such other manner that complies with Section 409A, as reasonably determined by the Company, and (ii) second, a reduction of any Payments that are exempt from Section 409A in a manner the Company reasonably determines will provide the Executive with the greatest post-reduction economic benefit.

(b)           In connection with a Change of Control Transaction, the Company shall engage a certified public accounting firm (“Accountants”) to perform the calculations to determine if the Payments to the Executive would reasonably be subject to Section 280G of the Code, and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) cause the Accountants to finalize such calculations and (2) deliver such calculations and supporting documentation to the Executive, by no later than five (5) days before the closing of the Change of Control Transaction.  If the Executive, in good faith, disagrees with or disputes any of the assumptions, findings or determinations of the Accountants in respect of such calculations, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to cause its Accountants to consider in good faith the Executive’s position and revise such calculations if the Accountants determine that it is more-likely-than-not, based on the technical merits, that the Executive’s position will be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

11.           CONFIDENTIALITY AND POST-EMPLOYMENT OBLIGATIONS.  As a condition of employment, the Executive agrees to execute and abide by the Company’s current form of Confidentiality and Non-Competition Agreement (“Confidentiality Agreement”), which may be amended by the parties from time to time without regard to this Agreement.  The Confidentiality Agreement contains provisions that are intended by the parties to survive and do survive termination of this Agreement.

9

12.           ASSIGNMENT.

(a)           The Executive may not assign or delegate any rights or obligations hereunder without first obtaining the written consent of the Company.

(b)           This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors, assigns and legal representatives.  The Company will require any acquiror or successor of the Company in any merger, consolidation, sale, or acquisition of the Company, or a similar transaction to assume the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, and any failure to do so shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

13.           NOTICE.  For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered by hand, (b) on the first business day following the date of deposit if delivered by guaranteed overnight delivery service, or (c) on the fourth business day following the date delivered or mailed by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: If to the Executive: at the address shown on the records of the Company.

If to the Company:

Biozone Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

19805 N. Creek Parkway

Bothell, WA 98011

or to such other address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notices of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

14.           SECTION HEADINGS; INCONSISTENCY.  The section headings used in this Agreement are included solely for convenience and shall not affect, or be used in connection with, the interpretation of this Agreement.  If there is any inconsistency between this Agreement and any other agreement (including but not limited to any option, stock, long-term incentive or other equity award agreement), plan, program, policy or practice (collectively, “Other Provision”) of the Company the terms of this Agreement shall control over such Other Provision.

15.           SEVERABILITY.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity of unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof.

16.           COUNTERPARTS.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instruments.  One or more counterparts of this Agreement may be delivered by facsimile, with the intention that delivery by such means shall have the same effect as delivery of an original counterpart thereof.

10

17.           MISCELLANEOUS.  No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and such officer or director of the Company as may be designated or authorized by the Board.  No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.  This Agreement together with all exhibits hereto and the Confidentiality Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein.  No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement.  The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Washington without regard to its conflicts of law principles.

18.           SECTION 409A.

(a)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the following provisions apply to the extent severance benefits provided herein are subject to Section 409A of Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively “Section 409A”).  Severance benefits payable upon a termination of employment shall not commence until Executive has a “separation from service” for purposes of Section 409A.   Each installment of severance benefits is a separate “payment” for purposes of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i), and the severance benefits are intended to satisfy the exemptions from application of Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A-1(b)(4), 1.409A-1(b)(5) and 1.409A-1(b)(9).  However, if such exemptions are not available and Executive is, upon separation from service, a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, then, solely to the extent necessary to avoid adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A, the timing of the severance benefits shall be delayed until the earlier of (i) six (6) months and one day after Executive’s separation from service, or (ii) Executive’s death.  The parties acknowledge that the exemptions from application of Section 409A to severance benefits are fact specific, and any later amendment of this Agreement to alter the timing, amount or conditions that will trigger payment of severance benefits may preclude the ability of severance benefits provided under this Agreement to qualify for an exemption.

(b)           It is intended that this Agreement shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A, and any ambiguity contained herein shall be interpreted in such manner so as to avoid adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall in no event be obligated to indemnify the Executive for any taxes or interest that may be assessed by the IRS pursuant to Section 409A of the Code on payments made pursuant to this Agreement.

19.           MITIGATION OF DAMAGES.  In no event shall the Executive be obliged to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the severance benefits payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor shall the amount of any severance benefit hereunder be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another employer, except as set forth in this Agreement.

11

20.           REPRESENTATIONS.  The Executive represents and warrants to the Company that the Executive has the legal right to enter into this Agreement and to perform all of the obligations on the Executive’s part to be performed hereunder in accordance with its terms and that the Executive is not a party to any agreement or understanding, written or oral, which could prevent the Executive from entering into this Agreement or performing all of the Executive’s obligations hereunder.  The Executive further represents and warrants that he has been advised to consult with an attorney and that he has been represented by the attorney of his choosing during the negotiation of this Agreement (or chosen not to be so represented), that he has consulted with his attorney before executing this Agreement (or chosen not to consult an attorney), that he has carefully read and fully understand all of the provisions of this Agreement and that he is voluntarily entering into this Agreement.

21.           NON-DISPARAGEMENT.  Both during and after the Employment Term, the Executive and the Company (through its officers and directors) agree not to disparage the other party, and the other party’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders, affiliates and agents, in any manner likely to be harmful to them or their business, business reputation or personal reputation; provided that both the Executive and the Company may respond accurately and fully to any question, inquiry or request for information when required by legal process and provided further that nothing in this Section 21 shall preclude any party from making truthful statements that are reasonably necessary or to enforce or defend the party’s rights under this Agreement.

22.           WITHHOLDING.  The Company may withhold from any and all amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

23.           SURVIVAL.  The respective obligations of, and benefits afforded to, the Company and the Executive which by their express terms or clear intent survive termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 8 through 26, inclusive, of this Agreement, will survive termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, and will remain in full force and effect according to their terms.

24.           AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES.  The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent.  Neither the Executive nor the Company shall be entitled to any presumption in connection with any determination made hereunder in connection with any arbitration, judicial or administrative proceeding relating to or arising under this Agreement.

25.           DISPUTE RESOLUTION.  In the event of any controversy, dispute or claim between the parties under, arising out of or related to this Agreement (including but not limited to, claims relating to breach, termination of this Agreement, or the performance of a party under this Agreement) whether based on contract, tort, statute or other legal theory (collectively referred to hereinafter as “Disputes”), the parties shall follow the dispute resolution procedures set forth below.  Any Dispute shall be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS (“JAMS”) then in force, and that the arbitration hearings shall be held in Bothell, WA.  The parties agree to (i) appoint an arbitrator who is knowledgeable in employment and human resource matters and, to the extent possible, the industry in which the Company operates, and instruct the arbitrator to follow substantive rules of law; (ii) require the testimony to be transcribed; and (iii) require the award to be accompanied by findings of fact and a statement of reasons for the decision.  The arbitrator shall have the authority to permit discovery, to the extent deemed appropriate by the arbitrator, upon request of a party, but such discovery process shall continue for no more than thirty (30) days.  The arbitrator shall have no power or authority to add to or detract from the written agreement of the parties.  If the parties cannot agree upon an arbitrator within ten (10) days after demand by either of them, either or both parties may request JAMS name a panel of five (5) arbitrators.  The Company shall strike the names of two (2) off this list, the Executive shall also strike two (2) names, and the remaining name shall be the arbitrator.  The Company and the Executive shall each pay for their own attorneys’ fees and expenses and their pro rata share of the JAMS fees and expenses.  Any award shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the parties and a judgment rendered thereon may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.  This Section shall not limit the right of any party to sue for injunctive relief for a breach of the obligations of this Agreement, including but not limited to the obligations in Section 11 or the Confidentiality Agreement.

12

26.           CLAW-BACK.  All compensation received by the Executive from the Company will be subject to the provisions of any claw-back policy implemented by the Company to comply with applicable law or regulation (including stock exchange rules), including, without limitation, any claw-back policy adopted to comply with the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder; provided that any claw-back policy will be applied to the Executive in a manner consistent with all other executive officers of the Company subject to the policy and no more extensively than is necessary to comply with applicable law or the policy.

8.           Governing Law and Interpretation.  This Agreement and General Release shall be governed and conformed in accordance with the laws of the state of Washington without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.  In the event Employee or Employer breaches any provision of this Agreement and General Release, Employee and Employer affirm either may institute an action to specifically enforce any term or terms of this Agreement and General Release.  Should any provision of this Agreement and General Release be declared illegal or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction and should the provision be incapable of being modified to be enforceable, such provision shall immediately become null and void, leaving the remainder of this Agreement and General Release in full force and effect.  Nothing herein, however, shall operate to void or nullify any general release language contained in the Agreement and General Release.

9.           No Admission of Wrongdoing.  Employee agrees neither this Agreement and General Release nor the furnishing of the consideration for this Agreement and General Release shall be deemed or construed at any time for any purpose as an admission by Employer of any liability or unlawful conduct of any kind.

10.           Non-Disparagement.
