Commission, the Company has entered into an Executive Separation and Employment Agreement with Ray R. Rogers, effective originally April 3, 2000, and amended effective August 1, 2001 (when Mr. Rogers was re-employed by the Company as the interim
President and Chief Executive Officer). Under the terms of his agreement, Mr. Rogers&#146; term of employment was automatically extended through June 30, 2003 (subject to earlier termination should the Company engage the services of a permanent
Chief Executive Officer). Under the terms of his agreement as amended, Mr. Rogers&#146; annual base salary was adjusted to an annual rate of $200,000 when Meridian Financial Group LLP completed its Series F Preferred Stock financing March 1, 2002
(see discussion under &#147;Certain Relationships and Related Transactions&#148; set forth elsewhere in this Proxy Statement). Most of the stock options provided to Mr. Rogers under his amended employment agreement (392,150 shares) were vested at
the time this financing was completed. Based upon successful completion of this financing, the remaining portion of the option (78,438 shares) was accelerated to full vesting, and Mr. Rogers received a bonus of $33,000, in exchange for cancellation
of Mr. Rogers&#146; right to receive a further 10% bonus based on sales of certain OXIS technology. Under the terms of his amended employment agreement, if Mr. Rogers&#146; employment is terminated during the employment term by the Company without
cause (as defined) or by Mr. Rogers for good reason (as defined), he would be entitled to severance for a period of 12 months following such termination. &#147;Severance&#148; would include payment of then current base salary </FONT>

minimum tax. OXIS will not be allowed a deduction for federal income tax purposes as a result of the exercise of the ISO regardless of the applicability of the alternative minimum tax. Upon the sale or exchange of the shares at least two years after
the grant of the option and one year after receipt of the shares by the optionee, any gain will be treated as long-term capital gain. If these holding periods are not satisfied, the optionee will recognize ordinary income equal to the difference
between the exercise price and the lower of the fair market value of the stock at the date of option exercise or the sale price of the stock. OXIS will be entitled to a deduction in the same amount as the ordinary income recognized by the optionee.

NQSOs. Generally, an optionee will not recognize any taxable income at the time the optionee is granted a NQSO. However, upon exercise of the Option, the optionee will recognize ordinary income for income tax purposes equal to the excess of the then
fair market value of the shares over the exercise price. The income recognized by an optionee who is also an employee of OXIS will be subject to tax withholdings by OXIS by payment in cash or out of the current earnings paid to the optionee. OXIS
will be allowed a deduction for federal tax purposes in an amount equal to the income recognized by the optionee so long as OXIS has met all applicable withholding requirements and so long as the exercise of the option by optionee does not cause
OXIS to violate the limits on executive compensation set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code. If the optionee holds such shares for more than one year following exercise of the option, any gain realized upon disposition will be treated as long-term
capital gain. If the shares are sold within one year after the exercise date, any gain realized upon disposition will be treated as short-term capital gain. The gain realized upon disposition will be the excess, if any, of the sales price over the
tax basis of the shares. </FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P><P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000"><I>Tax Summary Only
