          This EMPLOYMENT AND NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT, dated as of July 18, 2005 (the "Start Date"), by and between Vsource (USA) Inc. (the "Company") and Todd Parker ("Employee").

          In consideration of Employee's employment by the Company, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.     Employment. Subject to earlier termination in accordance with the provisions herein, this Agreement shall commence as of the Start Date.

        a.     Duties. The Company agrees to employ Employee and Employee agrees to serve the Company, as its Co-Chief Executive Officer, subject to the direction of the Board of Directors of the
Company (the "Board"), and to have such authority and duties relative to the operation of the Company as may be determined by the Board. In addition, Employee agrees, if requested by Vsource, Inc.,
the Company's parent company ("VSI"), to serve as the Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors of VSI and Co-Chief Executive Officer of VSI subject to the direction of the Board of Directors of VSI,
with such authority and duties relative to the operation of VSI as may be determined by the Board of Directors of VSI.

        b.     Term. The initial term of this Agreement shall be from the Start Date hereof until the day that is three years after the Start Date (the "Initial Term"). This Agreement shall renew
automatically for additional one (1) year terms unless either party gives notice of termination not less than 60 days prior to the end of the Initial Term.

        c.     Best Efforts. During the term of his employment under this Agreement, Employee shall devote substantially all his business time, attention, skill, and efforts to the faithful performance
of his duties hereunder, and will use his best efforts to advance the interests of the Company, VSI. or any parent company thereof, and any subsidiaries thereof (the "Vsource Companies"). Employee
agrees that he shall not undertake any outside activities which creates a conflict in interest with his duties to the Company or VSI, or which, in the judgment of the Board of Directors of VSI,
interfere with the performance of the Employee's duties to the Company and/or VSI.

2.     Compensation.

        (a)     Base Salary. During the Initial Term, the Company shall pay to Employee, as consideration for the services to be rendered by Employee hereunder, an annual base salary of $96,000 (the "Base Salary").

Base Salary payments in cash shall be made in equal installments in accordance with the Company's then prevailing payroll policy.

Base Salary for years after the expiration of the Initial Term shall be mutually determined by the Company and Employee.

        (b)     Rule 12b5-1(c) Trading Program. As soon as practicable, Company will work with Employee to facilitate Employee's establishment and adoption of a stock trading program (the "Trading
Program") in accordance with Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which program shall provide for the establishment of "blind trusts" and Rule 10b5-1 sales plans to
permit Employee to satisfy liquidity and diversification objectives and to increase the amount of VSI common stock, par value $0.01

 per share ("Common Stock"), available to investors. Upon the
establishment of the Trading Program, Employee may make an annual election to receive Base Salary payments, in whole or in part, in shares of Common Stock registered under a Form S-8 registration
statement ("S-8 Stock") or restricted shares of Common Stock. Employee shall make such election in writing to the Company and the Company shall work with Employee and the Trading Program
administrator to implement such election as soon as practicable with respect to future compensation, but no earlier than sixty (60) days following receipt of Employee's written election.

        (c)     Base Salary Stock Valuation. For purposes of this Agreement, any Base Salary paid hereunder to Employee in the form of S-8 Stock or restricted shares of Common Stock shall be valued at
the opening trading price of Common Stock as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, or such other public exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, on the "Issuance date". The "Issuance Date" shall
mean the Company's then regular payroll date.

        By way of example, if Employee is paid on a monthly basis and elects in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) above to receive all his Base Salary in restricted shares of Common Stock
during the second year of the Initial Term and the opening trading price of the Common Stock is $2.00 on the regular payroll date, Employee would receive 4,000 shares of restricted Common Stock or (i) Base Salary of $96,000
divided by (ii) 12 (for the 12 months in the second year of the Initial Term) divided by (iii) $2.00.

        If Base Salary paid in the form of stock would result the issuance of fractional shares, such shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share of Common Stock and Employee shall not be
entitled to receive cash or any other payment with respect to the fractional share.

        (d) Annual Incentive Bonus. Employee shall be eligible for an annual target incentive bonus (each, an "Annual Bonus") equal to up to 300% of Employee's Base Salary, which
shall be payable upon the achievement of performance targets to be set by the Compensation Committee (the "Compensation Committee") of the Board of Directors of VSI, which committee shall be
established as soon as practicable; provided, however, Employee shall receive a guaranteed Annual Bonus (each, a "Guaranteed Annual Bonus") as follows:

	Year

		Guaranteed Annual Bonus
	Year ending July 18, 2006 ("Year One")

		$25,000
	Year ending July 18, 2007 ("Year Two")

		$50,000
	Year ending July 18, 2008 ("Year Three")		$75,000

        If the Trading Program has been implemented, Annual Bonuses shall be paid to Employee at his direction in the form of cash, S-8 Stock, or restricted shares of Common Stock, which direction shall
be made in writing to the Company no later sixty (60) days prior to the then applicable anniversary of the Start Date. Any stock component of an Annual Bonus shall be valued as of the opening trading
price of Common Stock as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, or such other public exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, on the then applicable anniversary of the Start Date. In the event the
Trading Program has not been 

-2-NEXT PAGE

implemented or Employee fails to elect the form of compensation with regard to his Annual Bonus by the applicable due date, the Company shall pay Annual Bonus in
cash.

        All cash Annual Bonuses shall be payable no later than thirty (30) days after the then applicable anniversary of the Start Date.

        Annual Bonus payments in S-8 Stock or restricted shares of Common Stock shall be made as soon as practicable following the then applicable anniversary of the Start Date and evidenced by further
agreements between Employee and VSI as are necessary, which agreements will contain such other terms, conditions, representations, warranties, and indemnities as VSI requires and as are customary for
transactions between public companies and its senior management regarding the sale or issuance of public equity securities.

        (e)     Sign-On Bonus. Employee shall receive a sign on bonus of $7,500, which will be paid in cash no later than August 31, 2005. In the event of a Voluntary Termination (as defined below),
Employee shall return to the Company (no later than thirty (30) days after such Voluntary Termination) an amount in cash equal to $7,500 multiplied by the fraction determined dividing (x) the number
of months remaining from the date of the Voluntary Termination until the expiration of the Initial Term by (y) thirty-six (36) (the "Pro-Rated Fraction").

        (f)     Withholdings. Amounts payable to Employee under this Agreement shall be reduced by standard withholdings and other authorized deductions.

3.     Stock Options, Restricted Stock and Similar Types of Compensation Benefits. Stock option grants, participation in restricted stock programs or deferred compensation programs
and other similar types of compensation plans will be decided by the Compensation Committee or full Board of Directors of VSI but in any event will be on generally the same terms and conditions made
available to other members of senior management of the Vsource Companies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company agrees, subject to Vsource obtaining any necessary approval of VSI's Board,
to:

		(a)	Sign-on Stock Grant. Grant to Employee 350,000 shares of restricted Common Stock (the "Sign-on Stock"), which shares shall be complete vested as of the Start Date. In the event of a
Voluntary Termination (as defined below), Employee shall forfeit and return (no later than thirty (30) days after such Voluntary Termination) to the Company for cancellation the number of shares of
Sign-on Stock equal to 350,000 multiplied by the Pro-Rated Fraction; and
		(b)	Annual Stock Grants. Grant to Employee in each of Years Two and Three a grant of no less than 50,000 vested shares of restricted Common Stock (each, an "Annual Stock Grant"); provided,
however, in the event of a Voluntary Termination shall forfeit his right to the any unearned Annual Stock Grant.

To the degree necessary, the transactions set forth in (a) and (b) above will be contained in further agreements between Employee and VSI and will reflect the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and contain such other terms, conditions, representations, warranties, and 

-3-NEXT PAGE

indemnities as VSI requires and as are customary for transactions between public companies and its senior
management regarding the sale or issuance of public equity securities.

4.     Benefits. Employee shall be treated in at least the same manner as, and shall be entitled to at least such benefits and other prerequisites and terms and conditions at least no
less favorable than those generally provided to the Company's senior management. Employee shall be eligible to participate in the Company's medical insurance, life insurance and 401(k) programs on
like terms with the Company's senior management.

5.     Expenses. Upon presentation of proper vouchers, receipts or other proof, Employee shall be reimbursed promptly by the Company for all reasonable travel and other expenses

                b.     By the Company. Employee's employment may be terminated by the Company or VSI:

determines in good faith that Employee has violating any fiduciary duty, violated his duty of loyalty to the Vsource Companies, been grossly negligent or acted dishonestly to the material detriment
of the Company or any Vsource Companies, (3) Employee willfully disobeys the instructions or mandates of the Board of Directors of the Company or VSI and such disobedience continues after Employee is

willful misconduct or failed to perform his duties hereunder and such failure continues after Employee is afforded reasonable opportunity to cure such failure (each of (1), (2), (3) or (4), refereed
to herein as a "Termination for Actual Cause"); or

		        ii.     immediately, in the event that Employee is indicted or otherwise formally charged with a felony or a crime of moral turpitude, in which case the Board may, upon three (3) days written notice,
suspend Employee's employment by the Company. Thereafter, all payments of salary and bonuses, if any, to which Employee otherwise would be entitled under this Agreement shall be paid into an interest
bearing escrow account. In the event that Employee shall be acquitted of such charges or such charges shall otherwise be dismissed, Employee shall be reinstated as an employee, and all salary and

                      whether to Tishtec,  Elite,  or a third party,  unless the

                      product  manufactured at the Elite facility under the same
                      terms and conditions granted under this Agreement.  If the

                c.    If Harris  elects to transfer the Product  manufacture  to
                      another  facility,  Elite shall  provide all  information,
                      including  but  not  limited  to  the   documentation  and

                      Harris within sixty (60) days of such election.

         D.     Upon the sale of all or substantially all of Harris' assets to a
                third party entity,  Harris shall inform Elite of their intended
                change of control within ninety (90) days of the decision. Elite

                under the same terms and conditions granted under this Agreement
                (and the  acquiring  entity of Harris  then shall  assume all of
                Harris'  obligations  under this  Agreement),  or of terminating
                this  Agreement.  If the  successor  to  Harris  does  not  wish

                facility, Harris must give nine (9) months notice to Elite.

         Tishtec,  Elite and Harris  shall  review and  approve  the form of the
         label and insert before final printing. Notwithstanding any such review
         and approval by them,  Elite shall be  responsible  for  manufacturing,
         storing and  overseeing  the  labeling,  packaging  and shipping of the
         Product  in  a  manner  that   complies  with  all   applicable   legal
         requirements,  including,  but not limited to the laws and  regulations
         enforced  by the FDA.  It is  expressly  understood  and  agreed by the
         Parties that Elite shall not assign or transfer its  responsibility  to
         manufacture the Product under this Agreement  without the prior written
         consent of Harris,  which  consent  may be  withheld  by Harris for any
         reason in its sole discretion.

4.4.     PURCHASE AND DISTRIBUTION

         A.     Harris shall purchase  finished  (ready to market)  Product from
                Elite at the  Transfer  Price  established  in Exhibit  "B" (the
                "Transfer Price"), subject to Elite's (including any third party
                supplier's)  compliance  with the terms and  conditions  of this

                using commercially  reasonable efforts to maximize Product sales
                and Profit Share.  Harris shall devote such marketing efforts to
                the  Product  as its  competitors  customarily  would  exert for
                generic   products  with  comparable   market  size  and  profit
                potential under  comparable  competitive  conditions.  Following
                approval of the ANDA by the FDA, Harris shall, at least once per
                calendar quarter,  provide to Elite and Tishtec,  in writing, an
                outline  of  Harris'   commercial   plans,   planned   marketing
                activities,  and  sales  expectations  for the  Product  for the
                upcoming three (3) calendar quarters.

         C.     Harris  shall  file all  labeling,  marketing,  advertising  and
                promotional  materials to the  regulatory  agency.  Harris shall
                store,  transport,  sell,  market and  distribute the Product in
                compliance  with  all  applicable  laws  and   regulations.   If
                requested  by  Harris,   Tishtec   shall  make  any   additional
                regulatory  filings as Harris'  agent  under the ANDA filing for
                advertising as well as any additional scientific questions.

4.5.     EXCLUSIVITY

         During the term of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this
         Agreement,  each of Tishtec and Elite agrees that,  unless  directed by
         Harris,  it will not develop or  manufacture  the Product for itself or
         any other  party  other than  Harris and Harris  agrees not to have the
         Product  developed  or  manufactured  for sale by any party  other than
         Tishtec  and  Elite,  subject to and in  accordance  with the terms and
         conditions of this Agreement.  It is the intent of this Agreement that,
         except as  otherwise  provided in this  Agreement,  Harris shall be the
         exclusive  distributor  of the  Product,  Elite  will be the  exclusive
         manufacturer  of the  Product,  Elite will  supply  Harris  with all of
         Harris'  requirements  of the  Product  for  distribution  and  sale by
         Harris,   in  the  Territory  and  Harris  will  purchase  all  of  its
         requirements of the Product in the Territory from Elite, subject to and
         in accordance  with the terms and  conditions of this  Agreement and in
         all events following regulatory  authorization to market the Product in
         that  country.  Notwithstanding  the above,  if FDA  regulatory  action
         limits or precludes Elite's ability to produce the Product, Tishtec and
         Harris  shall have the option to have the  Product  manufactured  at an
         alternate manufacturing site and by an alternate manufacturer,  subject
         to Harris' ongoing  obligation to pay Elite's Profit Share for all such
         Product  (regardless  of

ARTICLE V: DEVELOPMENT COSTS, MANUFACTURING COSTS AND SALES

5.1.     DEVELOPMENT COSTS.

         A.     The Parties have  developed an agreed upon budget  setting forth
                the projected Development Costs, by Activity,  which is attached
                hereto as Exhibit "A." Harris will be responsible for payment of
                [ * ]% of the Development Costs. Elite, shall be responsible for
                [ * ]% of the  Development  Costs. No Party shall be responsible
                for Development Costs in excess of [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) of the
                estimated  costs of the  development  as per  Exhibit "A" hereto
                incurred without such Party's prior written  consent.  It is the
                belief of the Parties  that only one (1) pivotal  Bioequivalence
                Study will be  required to obtain the  approval of both  Product
                strengths because they will be dose-proportional.

         B.     Tishtec or Elite,  as the designated  Party  responsible for the
                Activity,  shall issue invoices for the actual Development Costs

                its  respective  share of such  Development  Costs within thirty
                (30) days after receipt of such invoice. Harris has the right to
                terminate   this   Agreement   in  its   entirety   if  a  pilot
                Bioequivalence Study has not been successfully  completed within
                nine (9) months of the date of this Agreement as per Exhibit A.

5.2.     MANUFACTURING COSTS AND SALES; PROFIT SHARE.

         A.     All parties shall agree as to the timing to make the  validation
                batches, giving Elite ninety (90) days advance notice.

         B.     Upon  FDA  approval  of the  ANDA  for the  Product  under  this
                Agreement,  if any  validation  batch of Product is not saleable
                due to short  dating,  Elite shall be  entitled to payment  from
                Harris, for the costs of such validation batches,  including but
                not  limited  to  all  raw  materials  costs,  as  part  of  its
                Development Costs.

         C.     Upon  FDA  approval  of the  ANDA  for the  Product  under  this
                Agreement,  if any  validation  batch of Product is not saleable
                due to failure of such batch to meet Product  specifications  of
                the ANDA (other  than  relating  to expiry  dating),  then Elite
                shall be responsible for the costs of such  validation  batches,
                including but not limited to all raw materials costs.

         D.     Harris  shall pay Elite [ * ] percent  ([ * ]%) of the  Transfer
                Price for a given shipment of Product within thirty (30) days of
                the date of the invoice.

         E.     During the term of this  Agreement,  on a quarterly basis within
                thirty days of the calendar quarter then ended, Harris shall pay
                each of Elite and Tishtec its  respective  Profit Share for such
                calendar quarter,  along with a detailed statement setting forth
                the calculation of Profit Share.

         Within  one  hundred  eighty  (180)  days  following  the close of each
         calendar  year  during the term of this  Agreement  and for a period of

         purposes of verifying costs and expenses and Profit Share in connection
         with this Agreement, and for verifying the accuracy of the calculations
         hereunder for the calendar year then ended and for the two (2) calendar
         years prior thereto. If any such verification shows any underpayment or
         overpayment,  a  correcting  payment or a refund  shall be made  within
         thirty (30) days of completion of such  verification  and submission of
         the results thereof, with details of the calculations included therein.

ARTICLE VI: PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT FEES AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

6.1.     It is agreed  between  Harris and Tishtec,  that upon the  execution of
         this  Agreement,  Harris  shall pay Tishtec a fee of  $150,000  for the
         identification  and  development  of the  Product  opportunity  and the
         oversight of the formulation  development work to be completed at Elite
         and/or Tishtec. Tishtec agrees that documentation of this process shall
         be provided to Harris on a monthly basis.

6.2.     It is agreed  between  Harris,  Tishtec,  and Elite that if, during any
         process of Product  development  (including  but not all  inclusive  to
         packaging   and   marketing),   if  any  Parties   develop   patentable
         manufacturing not currently available in the market place:

         A.     The developing Party shall be the sole owner of the intellectual
                property and may seek to protect this process as either a "trade
                secret" or patent the process.

         B.     If Elite and/or  Tishtec  develops such  intellectual  property,
                they shall be required to license the use of such "trade secret"
                or patentable technology to Harris or Elite (as applicable),  on
                an exclusive basis for the manufacture of the Product, for a fee
                of  $25,000  per  year of each  year in which  there  are a full
                twelve (12) months sales of the Product, for use by Elite in the
                manufacture  and Harris in the sales of the  Product  under this
                Agreement.

         C.     Such "trade secret" or patentable  technology may be used by the
                developing  Party on other  unrelated  products,  however Harris
                shall have the right of first  refusal to use such  process in a
                commercial manner for the production of the Product.

ARTICLE VII: DELIVERY, GUARANTEE,  INSURANCE,  INDEMNITY AND RELATIONSHIP OF THE
PARTIES

7.1.     ORDERING AND DELIVERY

         A.     Elite will deliver to Harris or shall cause the finished Product
                to be delivered to Harris in bottles packed in cases and stacked
                on pallets as specified by Harris under  Section  7.1(c)  below.
                Harris shall order  Product in  multiples of Elite's  batch size
                for the Product.

* Portions of this exhibit have been omitted and filed separately pursuant to an
application  for  confidential  treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission  pursuant to Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.

<PAGE>

         B.     Harris  will  provide to Elite on a monthly  basis a forecast of
                its expected supply needs for the Product for the then following
                six (6)  months,  along with  requested  shipment  dates for the
                Product.  Each  monthly  forecast  shall be  deemed to be a firm
                purchase  order  as to the  Product,  binding  upon  Harris  and
                subject to Elite's acceptance or rejection, in whole or in part,
                scheduled  for the first three (3) months of the  forecast,  and
                non-binding as to the last three (3) months of the forecast.  If
                a monthly forecast  increases the monthly quantity of Product by
                more than 25% over the  quantity  scheduled  in the  immediately
                preceding  month  forecast,  Elite  shall  not  be  required  to
                manufacture  and ship the quantity of Product that exceeds a 25%
                increase.  At the time of each quarterly  forecast,  the Parties
                will agree on shipment  dates for the Product  scheduled for the
                first three (3) months of the forecast,  to the extent they have
                not already agreed, and Elite will make shipments,  or cause all
                shipments to occur,  in accordance  with the agreed dates.  If a
                monthly forecast  increases the quantity of any Product over the
                quantity   scheduled  in  the  immediately   preceding   monthly
                forecast,  the Parties will agree on an equitable  adjustment in
                the shipment dates.

         C.     In  addition  to monthly  forecasts,  at least  thirty (30) days
                before the  shipment  date agreed upon for any  Product,  Harris
                shall   provide  Elite  with   specific   written   instructions
                concerning the packaging, labeling (unless under a private label
                other than  Harris,  which will  require 60 days prior notice to
                Elite  and  Harris  shall  ensure  that  Elite  has   sufficient
                inventory of such private labels at least thirty days before the
                desired shipment date of Product), and shipping of such Product.

         D.     Elite  will  ship,   or  shall   ensure  that  any  third  party
                labeler/packager  ships,  the Product in accordance  with Harris
                shipping and delivery instructions.  Elite shall pay the cost to
                ship the bulk packaged Product to a third party labeler/packager
                and Harris shall pay the shipping  cost of the finished  Product
                shipped from a pre-approved  cGMP facility under Section 4.3, to
                Harris' desired location.  Each shipment shall be made to arrive
                within five (5) days of the shipping date. Upon shipment,  Elite
                shall invoice Harris in writing for the Transfer  Price.  Harris
                shall pay Elite the Transfer  Price  within  thirty (30) days of
                the date of the invoice as in  accordance  with Section  5.2(c).
                Elite  shall be deemed to have  delivered  the Product to Harris
                when the Product has been tendered to the shipper, and title and
                risk of loss of the  Product  shall be  deemed to pass to Harris
                upon such tender.

7.2.     GUARANTEE

         Elite  guarantees that the Product  delivered to Harris will not be, on
         the date of delivery,  adulterated or misbranded  within the meaning of
         the FDCA or an article which may not,  under the provisions of Sections
         404, 505 or 512 of the FDCA, be introduced  into  interstate  commerce.
         Elite further  guarantees  that the Product will be manufactured in all
         respects in  accordance  with the ANDA and will conform in all respects
         with cGMPs.  Elite agrees to comply with and be bound by all reasonable
         Harris  quality  standards  that may be  agreed  to by the  Parties  in
         writing and appended to this Agreement. If any Product is found to fail
         to conform to the  specifications of the ANDA or is not manufactured in
         accordance with current good manufacturing  practices, and such failure
         is due to acts or omissions of Elite,  then Harris shall have the right
         to reject such  nonconforming  shipment of Product or the nonconforming
         portion  thereof,  as the case may be. Harris shall give written notice
         to Elite of its rejection  within fifteen (15) days of Harris'  receipt
         of  the  Product,  specifying  the  grounds  for  such  rejection.  The
         nonconforming  Product shall be held for Elite's disposition,  or shall
         be  returned to Elite,  as directed by Elite in writing.  Nonconforming

         Elite's so  directing.  Elite will  replace  the  Product at no cost to
         Harris.  Elite will bear the cost of any Recall (as  defined  below) of
         any Product  due to acts or  omissions  of Elite.  Harris will bear the
         cost of any Recall of any Product due to acts or  omissions  of Harris.
         In all other events, the costs of any Product Recall shall be allocated
         [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) to Harris, [ * ] percent ([ * ]%) to Elite.

         A.     Elite  represents  and  warrants  that it will use  commercially

                is a party or by which it is bound. The Parties will immediately

                against  Tishtec   Indemnified  Parties  or  Harris  Indemnified

                against Elite Indemnified  Parties or Harris Indemnified Parties
                that  Tishtec's  Intellectual  Property  infringes  upon a third

8.1.     In the  event  that  a  dispute  arising  out of or  relating  to  this
         Agreement cannot be resolved through  negotiation  between the Parties,
         the Parties  hereto agree to submit the dispute to  mediation  and will
         jointly appoint a mutually acceptable  mediator,  seeking assistance in
         such regard from the CPR Institute of Dispute  Resolution  (366 Madison
         Avenue, New York, NY 10017,  telephone number 212-949-6490) if they are
         unable to promptly agree upon such appointment. Mediation must commence
         within  fifteen (15) days after  either  Party hereto  serves a written
         notice of  mediation  upon the other and the Parties  hereto shall bear
         equally the cost of the mediation.  The Parties agree to participate in
         good faith in the  mediation and related  negotiations  for a period of
         five [5] days.  If the  Parties are not  successful  in  resolving  the
         dispute  through  mediation,  the  parties  may  then  arbitrate.  This
         Agreement  shall be governed by and  construed in  accordance  with the
         laws of the  State of  Florida  without  regard  to  conflicts  of laws
         provisions.

8.2.     ARBITRATION:  In the event a dispute  cannot be resolved in  accordance
         with  Section  8.1,  all  controversies  or  claims  arising  out of or
         relating to this Agreement, or of a breach of it, shall be submitted to
         binding  arbitration  pursuant to Section 682.01 et seq, of the Florida
         Statutes  (Florida  Arbitration  Code) as amended from time to time and
         not under the rules of the American Arbitration Association.

         A.     The  arbitration  shall be  before  one (1)  arbitrator.  If the
                Parties fail to agree on the sole arbitrator within fifteen (15)
                days of  written  notice  from  either  Party of a dispute to be
                submitted  to  arbitration,  either  Party may apply to have the
                arbitrator  appointed  by  a  court  of  competent  jurisdiction
                pursuant to Section 682.04,  Florida  Statutes.  All arbitration
                proceedings shall be held in Lee County, Florida.

         B.     The  arbitration  hearing shall be held within  forty-five  (45)
                days from the date of the arbitrator's  acceptance of his or her
                duties,  unless otherwise agreed by all Parties,  or extended by
                the arbitrator on good cause shown.

         C.     The fees and costs of the  arbitration  shall be equally divided
                so that each Party shall pay one third.  If a Party fails to pay
                the fees of the  arbitrator as requested  from time to time, the
                other Party may  advance any such fees,  which shall be due with
                interest at the  maximum  legal rate  permitted  by law from the
                date  of  advancement,  and  shall  be  part  of  the  award  in
                arbitration.

         D.     The Parties agree that the Arbitrator shall be granted the power
                to award reasonable attorneys' to the prevailing Party.

         E.     Any award  rendered  in the  arbitration  shall be  binding  and
                conclusive upon the Parties and shall not be subject to retrying
                or appeal before any court.  The arbitrator shall have the right
                to decree specific performance. Judgment upon the award rendered
                in  the   arbitration   may  be  entered  in  any  court  having
                jurisdiction.

ARTICLE IX: TERM AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

This Agreement shall continue in effect as of the Effective Date for a period of
ten (10) years from the first  shipment of commercial  production  quantities of
the Product under this Agreement (the "Initial  Term").  After the Initial Term,
this Agreement  shall continue for successive  terms of five (5) years each (the
"Additional  Terms"),  unless either Harris or Elite provides  written notice to
the other Party at least forty-five (45) days before the end of the then-current
Term that such Party desires to terminate this Agreement (the  Additional  Terms
and  Initial  Terms  being  referred  to  herein  collectively  as the  "Term").
Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  this Agreement may be terminated in accordance
with the following provisions:

9.1.     TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE DURING DEVELOPMENT

         Before the FDA approves the ANDA with respect to the Product, if Harris
         wishes to terminate for any reason:

         A.     Harris  shall give thirty (30) days notice in writing to Tishtec
                and Elite.

         B.     All of Harris'  rights to the Product and the ANDA shall  revert
                back to Tishtec  upon  repayment to Harris by Tishtec of the one
                time Product  development  fee of $150,000.  If Tishtec does not
                pay the  $150,000 to Harris  within  thirty (30) days of Harris'
                notice, Elite shall have the right to all of Harris' rights upon
                payment of$150,000 to Harris.

         C.     Harris  shall  pay  Tishtec  and  Elite  its  prorated  share of
                Development Costs through the date of notice and as set forth on
                Exhibit "A".

9.2.     TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE AFTER DEVELOPMENT.

         After  eighteen  (18) months of launch of the Product  into the market,
         either Harris or Elite may terminate  this Agreement on six (6) months'
         written  notice to the  other if the  Profit  Share to the  terminating
         party for the twelve (12) month period  preceding the date of notice of
         termination is less than three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000).  If
         the Agreement is terminated under this section by Harris, Harris agrees
         to pay for all Product ordered by it.

         If the  Agreement is  terminated  under this section by Harris,  Harris
         shall have the option to  transfer  and sell the ANDA and its rights to
         the Product to Tishtec and Harris shall take such actions,  and execute
         and deliver such documents, as Tishtec may from time to time reasonably
         request to effectuate the transfer of the ANDA to Tishtec hereunder. If
         Tishtec  does not accept  rights and does not  request  transfer of the
         ANDA in writing within thirty (30) days of the notice,  Elite may elect
         to accept the transfer of the ANDA its rights to the Product and Harris
         shall take such  actions,  and execute and deliver such  documents,  as
         Elite  may from  time to time  reasonably  request  to  effectuate  the
         transfer of the ANDA to Elite hereunder. The accepting party shall have
         all of Harris' rights and obligations for the Product.

         If the  Agreement  is  terminated  under this  section by Elite,  Elite
         agrees, at the request of Harris, to transfer the Product manufacturing
         to another  facility  and shall  provide all  information  necessary to
         transfer  the  Product   manufacturing  to  a  manufacturing   facility
         designated by Harris within sixty (60) days of such termination notice.
         Any such  termination  by Elite shall be effective upon FDA approval of
         the new manufacturing facility, or if earlier, on nine months' from the
         date of Elite's notice of termination.

         This Agreement may be terminated by either Elite or Harris in the event
         of a material  breach or default by a Party  which is not cured  within
         thirty (30) days after receipt of written  notice  detailing the breach
         or default.

9.4.     RIGHTS UPON TERMINATION

         Subject  to  Sections  9.1(B)  and  9.2,  or  upon  termination  of the
         Agreement due to a material  breach by Harris,  upon the termination or
         expiration  of this  Agreement,  Harris  shall  continue  to  have  the
         ownership rights to the ANDA,  including the right to license,  sell or
         transfer the ANDA.

9.5      ACTS OF INSOLVENCY

         Either  Elite or Harris may  terminate  this  Agreement  for default by
         written  notice if the other Party becomes  insolvent,  makes a general
         assignment for the benefit of creditors,  files a voluntary petition of
         bankruptcy,  suffers or permits the  appointment  of a receiver for its
         business  assets,  or  becomes  subject  to any  proceeding  under  any
         bankruptcy or insolvency law, whether domestic or foreign, or has wound
         up or  liquidated,  voluntarily  or  otherwise.  A Party  hereto  shall
         immediately  notify  the other  Party  upon an  occurrence  of any such
         event.

9.6      FORCE MAJEURE

         Either Party, Elite or Harris or Tishtec, shall be excused from failure
         to perform any of its obligations  hereunder to the extent such failure
         is caused by acts of God, fires, floods, war, sabotage,  unavailability
         of raw materials,  governmental  laws or  regulations,  labor disputes,
         strikes or similar  occurrences,  where such Party is without  fault or
         negligence  (a  "Force  Majeure  Event"),  provided  such  Party  gives
         immediate  notice of such Force Majeure  Event to the other Party,  and
         exercises due diligence to remove the cause as soon as practicable.  As
         applicable due to natural disaster,  Elite will make reasonable efforts
         to assist Harris to find/establish  another approved cGMP manufacturing
         site.

         such  invalid  provisions,  which valid  provisions  in their  economic
         effect  come  so  close  to  the  invalid  provisions  that  it  can be
         reasonably   assumed  that  the  Parties  would  have  contracted  this
         Agreement with those new provisions.  In case such provisions cannot be
         found,  the invalidity of one or more provisions of the Agreement shall
         not  affect  the  validity  for the  Agreement  as a whole,  unless the
         invalid provisions are of such essential  importance for this Agreement
         that it is to be  reasonably  assumed  that the Parties  would not have
         contracted this Agreement without the invalid provisions.

         IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  each of Harris,  Tishtec and Elite have  executed
         this Product Development,  Manufacturing, and Distribution Agreement by
         their duly authorized officers as of the Effective Date.
