Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On September 9, 2021, in view of the total of $1,666,706 accrued but unpaid cash compensation by China Pharma Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) to Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, Ms. Zhilin Li (the “Unpaid Cash Compensation”), the Compensation Committee of the Company authorized the issuance to Ms. Li an aggregate of 1,760,000 shares of common stock (the “Shares”) under the Company’s 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), to partially off set the Unpaid Cash Compensation.

The Shares are vesting immediately with no restrictions. Based on the per share price of $0.67, the closing price of the day prior to and of the approval rendered by the Compensation Committee, such Shares are valued at $1,179,200. Thus the Unpaid Cash Compensation is reduced to $487,506.

On September 9, 2021, to resolve the outstanding compensation by the Company to Mr. Gene Michael Bennett, the Company’s director, the Compensation Committee of the Company granted Mr. Bennett an incentive stock option (“Option”) to purchase 65,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price at $1.47 per share, under the Plan. The Option is vesting immediately and shall expire on September 9, 2024.
