 ARTICLE II  
 The Class C(2006-5) Notes 
 Section 2.01. Creation and Designation. There is hereby
created a tranche of BAseries Class C Notes to be issued pursuant to the Indenture and the BAseries Indenture Supplement to be known as the “BAseries Class C(2006-5) Notes.” 
 Section 2.02. Interest Payment. 
 (a) For each Interest Payment Date, the amount of interest due with respect to the Class C(2006-5) Notes shall be an amount equal to the product of (i)(A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the related
Interest Period and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Note Interest Rate in effect with respect to the related Interest Period, times (ii) the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class C(2006-5) Notes
determined as of the Record Date preceding the related Transfer Date. Interest on the Class C(2006-5) Notes will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in the related Interest Period and a 360-day year. 
 (b) Pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Indenture Supplement, on each Transfer Date, the Indenture Trustee shall deposit into the Class C(2006-5)
Interest Funding sub-Account the portion of BAseries Available Funds allocable to the Class C(2006-5) Notes. 
 Section 2.03.
Calculation Agent; Determination of LIBOR. 
 (a) The Issuer hereby agrees that for so long as any Class C(2006-5) Notes are
Outstanding, there shall at all times be an agent appointed to calculate LIBOR for each Interest Period (the “Calculation Agent”). The Issuer hereby initially appoints the Indenture Trustee as the Calculation Agent for purposes of
determining LIBOR for each Interest Period. The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Issuer at any time. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such or is removed by the Issuer, or if the Calculation Agent fails to determine
LIBOR for an Interest Period, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a replacement Calculation Agent that does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the Issuer or its Affiliates. The Calculation Agent may not resign its duties,
and the Issuer may not remove the Calculation Agent, without a successor having been duly appointed. 
 (b) On each LIBOR Determination Date,
the Calculation Agent shall determine LIBOR on the basis of the rate for deposits in United States dollars for a one-month period which appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such date. If such rate does not appear on
Telerate Page 3750, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime
banks in the London interbank market for a one-month period. The Calculation Agent shall request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate
for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by four major banks
in New York City, selected by the Beneficiary, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United States dollars to leading European banks for a one-month period. 
  

 7 

 (c) The Note Interest Rate applicable to the then current and the immediately preceding Interest Periods
may be obtained by telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its corporate trust office at (212) 815-3247 or such other telephone number as shall be designated by the Indenture Trustee for such purpose by prior written notice by the Indenture
Trustee to each Noteholder from time to time. 
 (d) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent shall send to the Indenture
Trustee and the Beneficiary, by facsimile transmission, notification of LIBOR for the following Interest Period. 
 Section 2.04.
Payments of Interest and Principal. 
 (a) Any installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any Class C(2006-5) Note which
is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee on the applicable Interest Payment Date or Principal Payment Date shall be paid by the Paying Agent to the Person in whose name such Class C(2006-5) Note (or one or more
Predecessor Notes) is registered on the Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such Person’s account as has been designated by written instructions received by the Paying Agent from such Person not later than the close
of business on the third Business Day preceding the date of payment or, if no such account has been so designated, by check mailed first-class, postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register on such Record Date,
except that with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of Cede & Co., payment shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee. 
 (b) The right of the Class C(2006-5) Noteholders to receive payments from the Issuer will terminate on the first Business Day following the Class
C(2006-5) Termination Date. 
 Section 2.05. Targeted Deposit to the Class C Reserve Account. The deposit targeted to be made to
the Class C Reserve sub-Account for the Class C(2006-5) Notes for any Transfer Date will be an amount equal to (i) to the product of (A) Class C Reserve Account Percentage for the related Monthly Period times (B) the sum of the
Initial Outstanding Dollar Principal Amounts of each tranche of Outstanding BAseries Notes as of the last day of the preceding Monthly Period times (C) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Nominal Liquidation Amount of the Class
C(2006-5) Notes as of the close of business on the last day of the preceding Monthly Period and the denominator of which is the Nominal Liquidation Amount of all Class C Notes in the BAseries as of the close of business on the last day of the
preceding Monthly Period, minus (ii) any amount previously on deposit in the Class C(2006-5) Reserve sub-Account prior to such targeted deposit; provided however, that if an Early Redemption Event or Event of Default occurs
with respect to the Class C(2006-5) Notes, the deposit targeted will be the Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class C(2006-5) notes minus the amount then on deposit in such sub-Account. 
 Section 2.06. Form of Delivery of Class C(2006-5) Notes; Depository; Denominations. 
 (a) The Class C(2006-5) Notes shall be delivered in the form of a global Registered Note as provided in Sections 202 and 301(i) of the
Indenture, respectively. 
  

 8 

 (b) The Depository for the Class C(2006-5) Notes shall be The Depository Trust Company, and the Class

issued in minimum denominations of $5,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess of that amount. 
 Section 2.07. Delivery and Payment for
the Class C(2006-5) Notes. The Issuer shall execute and deliver the Class C(2006-5) Notes to the Indenture Trustee for authentication, and the Indenture Trustee shall deliver the Class C(2006-5) Notes when authenticated, each in accordance with
Section 303 of the Indenture. 
 Section 2.08. Targeted Deposits to the Accumulation Reserve Account. The deposit
targeted to be made to the Accumulation Reserve Account for any Monthly Period during the Accumulation Reserve Funding Period will be an amount equal to the Required Accumulation Reserve sub-Account Amount.

Warranties. The Issuer makes the following representations and warranties as to the Collateral Certificate on which the Indenture Trustee is deemed to have relied in acquiring the Collateral Certificate. Such representations and warranties speak
as of the execution and delivery of this Terms Document, but shall survive until the termination of this Terms Document. Such representations and warranties shall not be waived by any of the parties to this Terms Document unless the Issuer has
obtained written confirmation from each Note Rating Agency that there will be no Ratings Effect with respect to such waiver.

security interest in, or otherwise conveyed the Collateral Certificate. The Issuer has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Issuer that include a description of collateral covering the Collateral

 August 4, 2006 
 Gary S. Titus, CPA 
 Dear Gary, 
 On behalf of Kosan Biosciences Incorporated (“Kosan” or the “Company”), I am pleased to
extend to you an offer of employment for the position of Senior Vice Present and Chief Financial Officer, reporting to me. We are very excited at the prospect of having access to your biotechnology financial and planning expertise in moving
Kosan forward and the contributions you will make to investor relations and the management team. I am looking forward to working closely with you. 
 This letter sets forth some important terms and conditions of your employment with Kosan. Please read it carefully.  
 Your monthly salary will be $25,000.00 ($300,000 on an annualized basis). Your personal coverage under Kosan’s current benefit plans will become effective on your first day of full-time work at Kosan (your “start date”). Your
start date will be as soon as practical. 
 As soon as you accept this offer, we will recommend to the Board of Directors that you be granted an option to
purchase 150,000 shares of Kosan Common Stock under the Kosan Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The option shares will vest over four years, with one-fourth vesting after one year of employment and the remainder vesting in equal monthly
increments over the remaining three years as provided in the Plan. This option grant is subject to the approval of the Board and your execution of our standard Stock Option Agreement. Subject to Board or Compensation Committee approval of the grant,
the exercise price will be equal to the closing price of the stock one trading day prior to your start date. 
 You will be eligible to participate in our
bonus plan and can earn up to 35% of your annual salary based on achieving your goals and objectives and Kosan’s achievement of its corporate goals and objectives. 
 This offer of employment is contingent upon your successfully passing a background check as well as positive references. Your employment with the Company is for no specified period and constitutes at will employment.
As a result, you are free to resign at any time, for any reason or for no reason. Similarly, the Company is free to conclude its employment relationship with you at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice. 

 As a condition of your employment, you must carefully review, sign, and comply with the enclosed Employee Proprietary
Information and Invention Assignment Agreement. Also as a condition of your employment, you agree to abide by the Company’s policies and procedures, as adopted from time to time, and to refrain from any activities that conflict with your
obligations to the Company. You represent that you do not have any agreements with any third parties (e.g., former employers), including but not limited to non-competition or proprietary information agreements, that will conflict with or limit your
ability to discharge your duties to Kosan. You agree that, in the course of your work for Kosan, you will not make any unauthorized use or disclosure of any proprietary information or materials of any third party (e.g., a former employer).

 The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 requires that every person present to potential employers proof of identity and eligibility or
authorization to accept employment in the United States. In order to comply with this law, and before you can become a Kosan employee, you must provide appropriate documentation to prove both your identity and legal eligibility to be employed by

Kosan concerning the subject matter hereof. It supersedes any other agreements or promises made to you by anyone, whether oral or written, and it cannot be changed except in a written agreement, signed by you and a duly authorized officer of Kosan.

 We are very excited at the prospect of your joining Kosan Biosciences and becoming a key contributor to our efforts. Please do not hesitate to contact
Human Resources if you have any questions. This offer will remain open until August 10, 2006 at which time it will expire if not previously accepted in writing.
