provided, however, that the restrictions in this Section shall not apply to any action brought to enforce this Agreement or in any other future litigation between the Company and/or the Executive and shall not bar any good faith response to any
court order, lawful subpoena, or inquiry by a governmental or self-regulatory organization.

GENERAL RELEASE 

I, Jeffrey Yordon, in consideration of and subject to the performance by Sagent Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries,
“Employer”), of its obligations under the Employment Agreement dated as of January 20, 2011 (the “Agreement”), do hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof the Employer and its respective
affiliates and all present, former and future managers, directors, officers, employees, successors and assigns of the Employer and its affiliates and direct or indirect owners (collectively, the “Released Parties”) to the extent
provided below (this “General Release”). The Released Parties are intended to be third-party beneficiaries of this General Release, and this General Release may be enforced by each of them in accordance with the terms hereof in
respect of the rights granted to such Released Parties hereunder. Terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement. 

1. I understand that any payments or benefits paid or granted to me under Section 9 of the Agreement represent, in part, consideration
for signing this General Release and are not salary, wages or benefits to which I was already entitled. I understand and agree that I will not receive certain of the payments and benefits specified in Section 9 of the Agreement unless I execute
this General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter. Such payments and benefits will not be considered compensation for purposes of any employee benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement
maintained or hereafter established by the Employer or its affiliates. 
 2. Except as provided in paragraphs 4 and 5 below and except for
the provisions of the Agreement which expressly survive the termination of my employment with the Employer, I knowingly and voluntarily (for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns) release and forever discharge the Employer and the
other Released Parties from any and all claims, suits, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross-claims, counter-claims, demands, debts, compensatory damages, liquidated damages, punitive or exemplary damages, other damages, claims for costs
and attorneys’ fees, or liabilities of any nature whatsoever in law and in equity, both past and present (through the date that this General Release becomes effective and enforceable) and whether known or unknown, suspected, or claimed against
the Employer or any of the Released Parties which I, my spouse, or any of my heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, may have, which arise out of or are connected with my employment with, or my separation or termination from, the Employer
(including, but not limited to, any allegation, claim or violation, arising under: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (including the Older
Workers Benefit Protection Act); the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974; any applicable Executive Order Programs; the Fair Labor Standards Act; or their state or local counterparts; or under any other federal, state or local civil or human rights law, or under any other local, state, or federal law,
regulation or ordinance; or under any public policy, contract or tort, or under common law; or arising under any policies, practices or procedures of Employer; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional
distress, defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the “Claims”).  

 3. I represent that I have made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of
action, or other matter covered by paragraph (ii) above. 
 4. I agree that this General Release does not waive or release any rights
or claims that I may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date I execute this General Release. I acknowledge and agree that my separation from employment with the Employer in compliance with the terms of
the Agreement shall not serve as the basis for any claim or action (including, without limitation, any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967). 

5. I agree that I hereby waive all rights to sue or obtain equitable, remedial or punitive relief from any or all Released Parties of any kind
whatsoever in respect of any Claim, including, without limitation, reinstatement, back pay, front pay, and any form of injunctive relief. Notwithstanding the above, I further acknowledge that I am not waiving and am not being required to waive any
right that cannot be waived under law, including the right to file an administrative charge or participate in an administrative investigation or proceeding; provided, however, that I disclaim and waive any right to share or participate
in any monetary award resulting from the prosecution of such charge or investigation or proceeding. Additionally, I am not waiving (i) any right to the benefits or any severance benefits to which I am entitled under the Agreement or
(ii) any claim relating to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage or any right of indemnification under the Employer’s organizational documents or otherwise. 

6. In signing this General Release, I acknowledge and intend that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims
hereinabove mentioned or implied. I expressly consent that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected Claims
(notwithstanding any state or local statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. I
acknowledge and agree that this waiver is an essential and material term of this General Release and that without such waiver the Employer would not have agreed to the terms of the Agreement. I further agree that in the event I should bring a Claim
seeking damages against the Employer, or in the event I should seek to recover against the Employer in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims to the maximum
extent permitted by law. I further agree that I am not aware of any pending claim of the type described in paragraph (ii) above as of the execution of this General Release. 

7. I agree that neither this General Release, nor the furnishing of the consideration for this General Release, shall be deemed or construed
at any time to be an admission by the Employer, any Released Party or myself of any improper or unlawful conduct. 
 8. I agree that this
General Release and the Agreement are confidential and agree not to disclose any information regarding the terms of this General Release or the Agreement, except to my immediate family and any tax, legal or other counsel I have consulted regarding
the meaning or effect hereof or as required by law, and I will instruct each of the foregoing not to disclose the same to anyone.

 9. Any non-disclosure provision in this General Release does not prohibit or restrict me (or my
attorney) from responding to any inquiry about this General Release or its underlying facts and circumstances by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), any other self-regulatory
organization or any governmental entity. 
 10. I hereby acknowledge that this General Release does not affect the enforceability of any
provisions of the Agreement intended to apply after the termination of my employment. 
 11. I represent that I am not aware of any claim by
me other than the claims that are released by this General Release. I acknowledge that I may hereafter discover claims or facts in addition to or different than those which I now know or believe to exist with respect to the subject matter of the
release set forth in paragraph 2 above and which, if known or suspected at the time of entering into this General Release, may have materially affected this General Release and my decision to enter into it. 

12. Notwithstanding anything in this General Release to the contrary, this General Release shall not relinquish, diminish, or in any way
affect any rights or claims arising out of any breach by the Employer or by any Released Party of the Agreement after the date hereof. 

13. Whenever possible, each provision of this General Release shall be interpreted in, such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this General Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any
other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this General Release shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 

BY SIGNING THIS GENERAL RELEASE, I REPRESENT AND AGREE THAT: 
  

	 	(i)	I HAVE READ IT CAREFULLY;
