(the “Interlineation Letter”). This Amendment is being executed by the parties hereto based upon following facts and understandings:

RECITALS

A. Accentia is obligated to McKesson pursuant to the Assumption Agreement referred to above, pursuant to which (among other things) Accentia assumed each and every debt, obligation, and liability owed by APP and/or Accent Rx to McKesson of every kind or nature, whether such debt, obligation, and liability was known, unknown, liquidated, unliquidated, disclosed, or undisclosed, existing or contingent, and whether or not explicitly listed in the recitals to the Assumption Agreement or evidenced by a promissory note. The Assumption Agreement, and each document executed pursuant thereto or in connection therewith (the “Assumption Documents”) remains in full force and effect, in accordance with its (or their) express written terms, subject to no defenses, off sets, or counterclaims whatsoever. Capitalized terms used in this Amendment not otherwise defined herein will have the meanings they were defined to have in the Assumption Agreement.

B. As of January 31, 2005, the payment obligations owed to McKesson by Accentia relating to certain “Loans” assumed by Accentia (the “Loan Debt”) aggregated $7,837,938.88, excluding attorneys’ fees and costs for which Accentia is obligated to reimburse McKesson. In addition, Accentia is from time to time obligated to pay certain sums to McKesson under the Supply Agreement described in the Assumption Agreement and/or under a later executed supply agreement which superseded the Supply Agreement. As of January 31, 2005, there were no past due amounts owing to McKesson in connection with any supply agreement.

In addition, Accentia and McKesson entered into an “Investors’ Rights Agreement” dated as of “January , 2004” which remains in full force and effect.

F. Pursuant to the Assumption Documents, McKesson was to receive Account Control Agreements for all deposit accounts of Accentia, Teamm, and Analytica. Accentia, Teamm, and Analytica have represented to McKesson that McKesson has received Account Control Agreements for all of their deposit accounts except for the deposit accounts listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto (the “Uncontrolled Accounts”).

Accentia is also in default of its obligations under the Assumption Agreement with respect to the following “Payment Defaults”: (i) Accentia failed to pay off the Loans by September 1, 2004, and (ii) Accentia has failed to make the monthly interest payments on the Loans in accordance with the Assumption Agreement.

H. Accentia is also in default for having changed its name from “Accentia, Inc.” to “Accentia Biopharmaceuticals, Inc.” without notice to, or the consent of, McKesson.

The payment obligations under the Biologics Distribution Agreement shall be paid as and when provided in the Biologics Distribution Agreements, subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of a default thereunder or an Event of Default under the Assumption Agreement (as amended from time to time in writing and signed by McKesson).

(c) In the absence of acceleration after an Event of Default, accrued interest shall be payable to McKesson (or the applicable affiliate, if any) monthly in arrears on the first business day of each calendar month for the previous month ending commencing with March 1, 2005.

(d) In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under the Assumption Agreement as amended by this Amendment or in connection with any of the Obligations including the Assumed Indebtedness, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Accentia and McKesson, in executing this Amendment and each of the other Documents, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, however, that, anything contained herein or in any Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, if said rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto as of the date of this Amendment and/or such other Loan Document, Accentia is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from Accentia in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.

SECTION 6 Representations and Warranties. Accentia represents and warrants to McKesson that:

(a) Accentia is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of Florida and has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Amendment and that its full, legal name is Accentia Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. although it uses the “dba” of “Accentia Specialty Pharmacy,” which is not a separate legal entity distinct from Accentia.

SECTION 7 Covenants, Etc. So long as any of the Obligations remain unsatisfied, Accentia agrees that the Covenants set forth in the Assumption Agreement remain binding upon Accentia.

SECTION 8 Release. In further consideration of McKesson’s willingness to enter into the Amendment, and as a material inducement to McKesson to do so, Accentia hereby forever releases and discharges McKesson and its predecessors-in-interest, and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, attorneys, advisors, and successors-in-interest from any and all claims, demands, controversies, actions, causes of action, obligations, liabilities, expenses, costs, attorneys’ fees and damages of any nature or character, or any kind, at law or in equity, past, present, or future, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, flow owned or hereafter acquired, arising out of or relating in any way to APP, Accent Rx, Accentia, the Assumed Indebtedness, any of the Assumed Accent Rx Debt Documents, the Supply Agreement, the Documents (as each of such terms is defined in the Assumption Agreement), the Obligations, any of the Guarantors (as that term is defined in the Amendment) or any other matter whatsoever, save and except only McKesson’s obligations to be performed after the date hereof under the Assumption Agreement as amended by this Amendment. It is the intention of

Accentia that the foregoing release shall be effective as a bar to all actions, fees, damages, losses, claims, liabilities, demands or debts whatsoever, of any kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected. Accentia expressly waives any and all rights and benefits conferred upon it by virtue of California Code of Civil Procedure section 1542 (or any similar law) which provides as follows:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

Accentia expressly acknowledges that McKesson has separately bargained for the foregoing waiver of the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure section 1542 and has been advised by its own counsel of the full legal consequences of this release and waiver.

SECTION 9 Restructure Opportunity. After the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 above, including the payment of not less than $1,900,000 to McKesson, Accentia shall have the opportunity tip to and including March 31, 2005 to provide McKesson with written notice of its desire in its discretion to take advantage of the “Restructure Opportunity” designed by Accentia to enable Accentia to consolidate its obligations owing to McKesson and to obtain certain benefits identified by Accentia. The Restructure Opportunity allows Accentia to (I) liquidate all payment obligations owing to McKesson (other than with respect to trade debt under a supply agreement or otherwise), (II) terminate the Biologics Distribution Agreement and related refundable deposit, and (III) repurchase Accentia’s equity, consisting of 4,289,000 shares of Series E Preferred stock (or equivalent conversion value in common shares if converted) by paying the sum of $14,200,000.00 as follows: (i) cash at closing of the Restructure Opportunity in the amount $4,200,000.00 plus all accrued and unpaid interest from the date of this Amendment through the date of the “Restructure Closing” defined below (the “Cash Payment”), and (ii) a promissory note (the “Restructure Note”) in the original principal amount of $10,000,000, the terms of which are more particularly described below, in each case in lieu of the payment terms otherwise set forth in the Assumption Agreement (as modified by this Amendment) and in the Biologics Distribution Agreement. The means of utilizing the Restructure Opportunity shall be as expressly stated in this Section 9.

(a) Conditions to Use of Restructure Opportunity. If Accentia desires to utilize the Restructure Opportunity, there must be no default or defined Event of Default under the Assumption Agreement or the other Assumption Documents, and on or before close of business San Francisco, California time on March 31, 2005, McKesson must receive (i) written notice of Accentia’s intent to utilize the Restructure Opportunity, (ii) the Cash Payment in good funds, (iii) the Restructure Note described below, (iv) acknowledgment from the Guarantors that their guaranties and any third party security agreements remain in place and in full force and effect with regard to the sums owing under the Restructure Note inasmuch as it is the identical debt as what is already guarantied or secured by such guaranties and/or third party security agreements, and (v) a general release of claims signed by Accentia and each of the Guarantors.

The date when all these items are received shall be defined herein as the “Restructure Closing,” so long as this occurs on or before the first to occur of March 31, 2005 (the “Restructure Deadline”), and the date that a default or defined Event of Default occurs under the Assumption Agreement (as amended from time to time), the Biologics Distribution Agreement or any Assumption Document.

(b) Restructure Note. The “Restructure Note” shall be a promissory note in the original principal amount of$ 10,000,000 and payable to the order of McKesson by Accentia. The principal owing under the Restructure Note shall bear interest at the Contract Rate unless and until an Event of Default occurs, in which case interest shall accrue and be payable at the Default Rate. All sums owing under the Restructure Note shall be due and payable on the first to occur of (i) the date that is 90 calendar days after the Restructure Closing, (ii) the date that is five (5) calendar days after the date upon which Accentia completes an initial public offering of its securities, and (iii) the date upon which an Event of Default under the Assumption Agreement or the other Assumption Documents occurs. The Restructure Note shall provide that Accentia shall remain obliged to reimburse McKesson for all fees, costs and expenses incurred by McKesson in connection with Accentia, the Restructure Note, the collateral therefor, the Assumption Agreement, and any of the Guarantors or pledgors of collateral, which sums shall be payable upon demand or in any event at the time of maturity of the Restructure Note, whether by acceleration or otherwise. The Restructure Note shall otherwise have terms satisfactory to McKesson.

(c) Extension of Restructure Deadline. Accentia shall be permitted to extend the March 31, 2005 “Restructure Deadline” for up to 60 days if (i) no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, (ii) on or before ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ delivers to McKesson notice of its desire for an extension of the Restructure Deadline along with a payment, in good funds, of a fee (the “Extension Fee”) equal to $100,000, which Extension Fee shall be paid to McKesson as a fee and shall not be applied to the indebtedness of Accentia owing to McKesson.

(d) Cancellation of other Obligations. In the event Accentia duly and timely invokes the Restructure Opportunity, including by making the Cash Payment and delivering the Restructure Note in full compliance with the Section 9, then Accentia shall have no further obligation to McKesson under the Biologics Distribution Agreement (other than with respect to any confidentiality provisions, if any), and in particular shall no longer have any obligation to repay the $3,000,000 refundable deposit made by McKesson under the Biologics Distribution Agreement, because all such payment obligations (to the extent unpaid) shall have been incorporated into the sums owing under the Restructure Note.

(e) Collateral. All collateral for (and guaranties) of the Loan Debt and any other Obligations owing to McKesson shall remain as security for (or guaranties of) the Restructure Note, subject to any existing written subordination agreements signed by McKesson.

(f) Deliveries at Restructure Closing. At the Restructure Closing, Accentia shall deliver to McKesson: (a) $4,200,000 in Cash and (b) duly executed Restructure Note in form satisfactory to McKesson and its legal counsel. At the Restructure Closing, upon receipt of delivery of the items to be delivered by Accentia to McKesson as set forth in the prior sentence, McKesson shall deliver to Accentia: (a) original stock certificates to 4,289,000 shares of Series E

Convertible Preferred Stock (or any Accentia Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Accentia Series E Convertible Preferred stock) held of record by McKesson together with duly executed assignments to Accentia and an assignment of any accrued but unpaid dividends on said shares of Series E Preferred stock; and (b) duly executed written termination of the Biologics Distribution Agreement, including a written waiver of all of McKesson’s rights in and to the non-interest bearing deposit of $3,000,000 paid by McKesson under the Biologics Distribution Agreement, each in form satisfactory to Accentia and its legal counsel.

SECTION 10 Miscellaneous.

(a) Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of California.

(b) Entire Agreement: Amendment. This Amendment contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and the Assumption Agreement and other documents shall not be further amended except by the written agreement of the parties.

(c) Acknowledgement. In granting Accentia (and the Guarantors) the accommodations set forth in this Amendment, McKesson is not establishing (and has not established) a pattern and practice or course of dealing of (i) granting extensions of payment due dates or making accommodations to Accentia or any Guarantor to address the consequences of Events of Default, (ii) amending the Assumption Agreement or any of the Assumption Documents to accommodate Accentia or any Guarantor in any way, nor (iii) forbearing or refraining from exercising each and all of McKesson’s rights and remedies under the Assumption Documents, the Documents and applicable law upon the occurrence of any Event of Default. Except as expressly amended in this Amendment or in another writing signed by McKesson, each and all of the Assumption Documents and the Documents remains in full force and effect in accordance with its express written terms.

(d) Time. Time is of the essence of each term of the Assumption Documents, including this Amendment.

(e) Third Party Beneficiaries. There are no third party beneficiaries of this Amendment nor of any of the Assumption Documents (or the Documents).

(f) Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterpart and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Amendment, as of the date first above written.

▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

Attn: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇’▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇. M.D.

Re:

Modification of “First Amendment to Accentia Assumption of Debt and Security Agreement” dated as of February 9, 2005 (the “First Amendment”) Executed by Accentia Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Accentia”) and McKesson Corporation (“McKesson”).

Gentlemen:

You have requested that McKesson agree to extend the deadline by which Accentia must act to satisfy the conditions necessary to take advantage of the “Restructure Opportunity” described in Section 9 of the First Amendment, which deadline presently would expire as of the date of this letter absent the willingness of McKesson to provide Accentia with an extension of the deadline. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, McKesson agrees that the deadline by which the conditions set forth in Section 9 of the First Amendment must be satisfied in order for Accentia to avail itself of the Restructure Opportunity described therein shall be extended from May 31, 2005 until close of business California time on June 30, 2005.

It shall be a condition to the extension provided above that Accentia, and each of the “Guarantors” (defined below) of the obligations owed to McKesson by Accentia, shall duly execute an original counterpart of this letter (the “Restructure Opportunity Extension Letter”) where indicated below and deliver it to McKesson. The “Guarantors” are defined herein as including each of the Guarantors as that term is used in the First Amendment and in the documents executed concurrently therewith, and includes ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇’▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇., M.D., ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇, M.D., Regent Court Technologies, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital Group, LLC, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital Group II, LLC, and MOAB Investments, LP. The term “Guarantors” no longer includes American Prescription Providers, Inc. (“APP”), American Prescription Providers of New York, Inc., American Prescription Providers of Pennsylvania, Inc., American Prescription Providers of Florida, Inc., nor American Prescription Providers of Georgia, Inc. based on the representations and warranties to McKesson made by Accentia and each of the undersigned Guarantors (which representations and warranties are hereby confirmed by each of them) that:

(i) APP was dissolved on December 30, 2002;

MOAB Investments, LP

May 31, 2005

(ii) each of American Prescription Providers of New York, Inc., American Prescription Providers of Pennsylvania, Inc., American Prescription Providers of Florida, Inc., and American Prescription Providers of Georgia, Inc. transferred all of their respective assets (if any) either to Accent Rx, Inc. (“Accent Rx”) or to APP, which then transferred those assets to Accent Rx, such that Accent Rx came to hold all such assets before transferring them to Accentia at or before the time Accent Rx assumed all of the indebtedness owing by APP to McKesson;

(iii) American Prescription Providers of New York, Inc. has been dissolved;

(iv) American Prescription Providers of Pennsylvania, Inc. has not yet dissolved, but has ceased operations, and is likely to dissolve or be dissolved in the near term

(iv) American Prescription Providers of Florida, Inc. has been administratively dissolved and wound up its affairs; and

(vi) American Prescription Providers of Georgia, Inc. is no longer in good standing, and has been dissolved.

Upon so executing where indicated below, Accentia and each of the Guarantors, respectively, shall immediately and subject to no conditions precedent thereby acknowledge and agree as follows:

a. That as of the date hereof, that certain “Accentia Assumption of Debt and Security Agreement” dated as of December 31, 2003 (as modified or amended in writing, from time to time, including by the First Amendment, called the “Assumption Agreement”), remains in full force and effect in accordance with its express written terms, and each and any document or agreement executed by Accentia or any Guarantor in favor of or for the benefit of McKesson remains in full force and effect (except as expressly modified or released in a writing signed by McKesson) subject to no defenses, counterclaims or offsets whatsoever, whether known or unknown, and whether legal or equitable in nature;

b. That each Guarantor hereby consents to the grant of the extension of the deadline for Accentia to take advantage of the “Restructure Opportunity” described in Section 9 of the First Amendment described above and agrees that such extension shall not give rise to any defense, counter claim or offset against any obligation that any Guarantor owes to McKesson under any document executed by such Guarantor in favor of McKesson or under applicable law;

MOAB Investments, LP

May 31, 2005

▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ had no and has no obligation to provide the extension set forth in this Restructure Opportunity Extension Letter and in granting the extension, McKesson is not establishing a pattern and practice or course of dealing of providing such extensions in the future, nor of modifying the Assumption Agreement in any manner whatsoever; and

d. Except as expressly modified in a writing signed by McKesson, the Assumption Agreement remains in full force and effect, including that all conditions to the exercise of the Restructure Opportunity set forth in the First Amendment must be met by the deadline as extended by this letter in order for Accentia to avail itself of the Restructure Opportunity.

If the foregoing is agreeable, please execute this Restructure Opportunity Extension Letter where indicated below and return it (and all counterparts) to the undersigned. The extension shall be effective upon receipt of duly executed counterpart originals of this letter from Accentia and each of the Guarantors. This is the entire agreement between McKesson and the other undersigned parties regarding the matters set forth herein, superseding all prior discussions, drafts or negotiations. There are no third party beneficiaries of this Restructure Opportunity Extension Letter.
