Background
On June 1, 2005, Nutra Pharma Corp.

Other material terms pertaining to the Doherty Agreements may be reviewed in our Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 1, 2005 and the Doherty Agreements that were attached as exhibits to that 8K.

Termination of Agreement
On April 1, 2006, the Doherty Entities and we completed a Termination Agreement whereby the employment and/or contractual relationship established by the Doherty Agreements was terminated and ceased as of the execution of the Termination Agreement. The Termination Agreement specifically provides that:
 
a)  
Doherty resigns from any and all positions that Doherty held as a result of the Letter Agreement, including his position as our Executive Chairman, Chairman of the Board, and/or any other positions;
 
b)  
Doherty & Company forfeits and releases all claims and rights of ownership to the 13,600,000 Options, represents that no portion of these options was promised, assigned, sold, pledged or transferred to any third party, and requests cancellation of such options;
 
c)  
Doherty & Company tenders its resignation from any and all positions that it held with us as a result of the Financing Agreement, including but not limited to agent and investment banker;
 
d)  
In consideration for entering into the Termination Agreement, we grant to Doherty & Company options to purchase two million (2,000,000) shares of our common stock, in full accord and satisfaction or any obligations, claims, sums, amounts, and/or disputes that we may have with the Doherty Entities; and
 
e)  
For a period of six (6) months from the date of the execution of the Termination Agreement, we will indemnify the Doherty Entities from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, charges, actions, proceedings, demands, judgments, closing costs, and expenses resulting from the services provided by the Doherty Entities in accordance with the Doherty Agreements.
