Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the payments provided in connection with Employee's Involuntary Separation do not qualify for any reason to be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1 (b)(4), Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), or any other applicable exemption and Employee is, at the time of his Involuntary Separation, a "specified employee," as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) (i.e., Employee is a

"key employee of a publicly traded company), each such payment will not be made until the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the 7lh month after Employee's Involuntary Separation and, on such date (or, if earlier, the date of Employee's death), Employee will receive all payments that would have been paid during such period in a single lump sum.

5.3 Survival of Certain Obligations and Termination Certificate. The provisions of Articles IV, V, VI and VIII shall survive any termination of the Employment Period, whether by reason of the occurrence of a Triggering Event or the expiration of the Initial Term or any Extension Term.

GENERAL RELEASE

I, Dania Eric Brooks, in consideration of and subject to the performance by DYADIC INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), of its material obligations under the Employment Agreement, dated as of April 29, 2013 (as the same may be amended, restated or otherwise modified, the Agreement), do hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof the Company and all present and former directors, officers, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns of the Company, and their direct or indirect owners (collectively, the "Released Parties") to the extent provided below.

I understand that any payments or benefits paid or granted to me under Section 5.2(c) or 5.2(d) 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 the payments and benefits specified in Section 5.2(c) or 5.2(d) of the Agreement unless I execute this General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter or breach this General Release.

Except as provided in paragraph 4 of this General Release, I knowingly and voluntarily release and forever discharge the Company and the other Released Parties from any and all claims, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross-claims, counterclaims, 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 of this General Release) and whether known or unknown, suspected, or claimed against the Company 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 from, the Company (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 Civil Rights Act of 1866, as amended; the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; any applicable Employee 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 the Company; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, negligent or intentional 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 2 of this General Release.

I and the Company mutually agree that this General Release does not waive or release any rights or claims that I may have under: (a) the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, which arise after the date I execute this General Release; and (b) any agreements to which I and the Company are parties pertaining to any shares or options to purchase shares of capital stock of the Company owned by me. I acknowledge and agree that my separation from employment with the Company 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).

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 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 Company 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 any Released Party, or in the event I should seek to recover against any Released Party in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims. I further agree that I am not aware of any pending charge or complaint of the type described in paragraph 2 as of the execution of this General Release.

6.	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 Company, any Released Party or myself of any improper or unlawful conduct.

I agree that if I challenge the validity of this General Release, I will forfeit all unpaid amounts otherwise payable by the Company pursuant to Section 5.2(c) or 5.2(d) of the Agreement other than the very first payment due me thereunder, provided that nothing herein contained in this Agreement shall prohibit or bar me from filing a charge, including a challenge to the validity of the Agreement, with the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC"), or any state or local fair employment practices agency, or from participating in any investigation, hearing or proceeding conducted by the EEOC, or any state or local fair employment practices agency. I also agree that if I violate this General Release by suing the Company or the other Released Parties, I will pay all costs and expenses of defending against the suit incurred by the Released Parties, including reasonable attorneys' fees, and return all payments received by me pursuant to the Agreement.

I agree that this General Release is confidential and agree not to disclose any information regarding the terms of this General Release, 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.

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 EEOC (or a state or local fair employment practices agency), any self-regulatory organization or governmental entity.

10.

I agree to reasonably cooperate with the Company in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory, or judicial proceeding. I understand and agree that my cooperation may include, but not be limited to, making myself available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations; appearing at the Company's request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process; volunteering to the Company pertinent information; and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are or may come into my possession all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with my other

permitted activities and commitments, provided that I shall have no obligation to expend more than one week of my time in connection with the performance of these activities without reasonable recompense, as mutually and reasonably agreed upon by me and the Company. I understand that in the event the Company asks for my cooperation in accordance with this provision, the Company will reimburse me solely for reasonable travel expenses, including lodging and meals, upon my submission of receipts.

11.	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 Company or by any Released Party of the Agreement.

12.

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 in 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.
