If the Board accepts such resignation, the Executive shall immediately resign from the Board. Upon the termination of the Executive’s employment as Executive Chairman, the Executive shall immediately resign from any other position(s) to which the Executive was elected or appointed or that the Executive otherwise holds at the Company, Parent and each of their respective affiliates. (b) OTHER ACTIVITIES. During the Employment Term, the Executive shall devote all of the Executive’s business time and energy, business judgment, knowledge and skill and the Executive’s best efforts to the performance of the Executive’s duties with the Company and Parent, provided that the foregoing shall not prevent the Executive from (i) serving on the boards of directors (and board committees) of non-profit organizations (provided, that the Executive provides the Board with advanced written notice prior to accepting or serving in any such position), (ii) serving on the boards of directors (and board committees) of for-profit organizations (provided, that the Executive receives prior written approval from the Board, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (iii) participating in charitable, civic, educational, professional, community or industry affairs, (iv) spending a de minimis amount of time on activities that provide de minimis compensation to the Executive, and (v) spending a de minimis amount of time managing the Executive’s passive personal investments; provided, such activities do not interfere or conflict with the Executive’s duties hereunder or create a potential business or fiduciary conflict or otherwise violate Section 11 of this Agreement; provided further, each of the Executive’s activities listed on Schedule A attached hereto is permitted under this Agreement so long as such activities listed on Schedule A do not materially interfere or conflict with the Executive’s duties hereunder. 2. EMPLOYMENT TERM. The Company agrees to employ the Executive pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and the Executive agrees to be so employed, for a term of three (3) years commencing as of the Effective Date, subject to extension at the sole election of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive’s employment hereunder may be earlier terminated in accordance with Section 6 hereof, subject to the provisions of Section 7 hereof.

(f) EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. The amounts payable to the Executive following termination of employment and the Employment Term hereunder pursuant to Sections 6 and 7 hereof shall be in full and complete satisfaction of the Executive’s rights under this Agreement and any other claims that the Executive may have in respect of the Executive’s employment with the Company or any of its affiliates, and the Executive acknowledges that such amounts are fair and reasonable, and are the Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy, in lieu of all other remedies at law or in equity, with respect to the termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder or any breach of this Agreement. 8. RELEASE; MITIGATION; SET-OFFS. Any and all amounts payable and benefits or additional rights provided pursuant to this Agreement in connection with the Executive’s termination of employment beyond the Accrued Benefits shall only be payable if the Executive (or his legal representative in the case of a termination due to the Executive’s Disability) delivers to the Company and does not revoke a general release of claims in favor of the Company Group, including with respect to any claims the Executive may have related to the Executive’s employment with the Company Group or the termination of such employment, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Board. Such release shall be executed and delivered (and no longer subject to revocation, if applicable) within sixty (60) days following termination. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement, and such amounts shall not be offset by any amount received by the Executive from any other source. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the limitations of applicable wage laws, the Company’s obligations to pay the Executive amounts hereunder is subject to set-off, counterclaim or recoupment of amounts owed by the Executive to the Company or any of its affiliates (including any member of the Company Group). 9. SECTION 280G. If any payment or benefit that the Executive may receive, whether or not payable or provided under this Agreement (“Payment”), would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be reduced to the Reduced Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall be either (A) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (B) the largest portion, up to and including the total amount, of the Payment, whichever of the amounts determined under (A) and (B), after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order: reduction of cash payments; reduction of employee benefits; and cancellation of accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards. In the event that acceleration of vesting of outstanding equity awards is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be undertaken in the reverse order of the date of grant of the Executive’s outstanding equity awards. All calculations and determinations made pursuant this Section 9 will be made by an independent accounting or consulting firm or independent tax counsel appointed by the Company (the “Tax Counsel”) whose determinations shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Executive for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations and determinations required by this Section 9, the Tax Counsel may rely on reasonable, good faith assumptions and approximations concerning the application of Section


280G of the Code and Section 4999 of the Code. The Company shall bear all costs the Tax Counsel may reasonably incur in connection with its services. 10. SECTION 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at the time the Executive’s employment terminates, the Executive is a “specified employee,” as defined below, any and all amounts payable under this Agreement on account of such separation from service that would (but for this provision) be payable within six (6) months following the date of termination, shall instead be paid on the next business day following the expiration of such six (6)-month period or, if earlier, upon the Executive’s death; except (A) to the extent of amounts that do not constitute a deferral of compensation within the meaning of Treasury regulation Section 1.409A-1(b) (including without limitation by reason of the safe harbor set forth in Section 1.409A- 1(b)(9)(iii), as determined by the Company in its reasonable good faith discretion); (B) benefits that qualify as excepted welfare benefits pursuant to Treasury regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(5); or (C) other amounts or benefits that are not subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of this Agreement, to the extent required to avoid adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code, all references to “termination of employment” and correlative phrases shall be construed to require a “separation from service” (as defined in Section 1.409A- 1(h) of the Treasury regulations after giving effect to the presumptions contained therein), and, for purposes of this Agreement, the term “specified employee” means an individual determined by the Company to be a specified employee under Treasury regulation Section 1.409A-1(i). Each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event shall the Company or any of its affiliates have any liability to the Executive or any other person relating to the failure or alleged failure of any payment or benefit under this Agreement to comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 11. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. (a) NONCOMPETITION. The Executive acknowledges that (i) the Executive will continue to perform valuable services for the Company, and that the Executive’s performance of such services to a competing business will result in irreparable harm to the Company Group, (ii) the Executive has had and will have access to certain confidential information which, if improperly disclosed in violation of the Agreement, would unfairly and inappropriately assist in competition against the Company Group or any of its affiliates, and (iii) the Executive has generated and will generate goodwill for the Company Group and its affiliates in the course of the Executive’s employment. Accordingly, during the Executive’s employment or service with the Company Group and for a period thereafter equal to twelve (12) months, the Executive agrees that the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by (whether as an employee, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, and whether or not for compensation) or render services to any person, firm, corporation or other entity, in whatever form, engaged in the Business (as defined below), in any locale of any country in which the Company Group conducts the Business. For purposes hereof, the term “Business” shall mean the business of developing biological medicines for treating patients with devastating diseases, or any business in which the Company Group is engaged in upon the termination of Executive’s employment or in which the Company Group has actively and in writing planned, on or prior to such date, to be engaged in on or after such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit the Executive from being a passive owner of not more than two percent (2%) of the equity securities of a publicly traded corporation engaged in a business that is in competition with the Company Group, so long as the Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation. (b) NONSOLICITATION; NONINTERFERENCE. During the Executive’s employment or service with the Company Group and for a period thereafter equal to twelve (12) months, the Executive agrees that the Executive shall not, except in the furtherance of the Executive’s duties hereunder, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, (i) solicit, aid or induce any customer of the Company Group or any of its affiliates with whom the Executive had direct dealings while employed by the Company Group to purchase goods or services then sold by the Company Group or any of its affiliates from another person, firm, corporation or other entity or assist or aid any other person or entity in identifying or soliciting any such customer, (ii) solicit, aid or induce any employee, representative or agent of the Company Group or any of its affiliates to leave such employment or retention or to accept employment with or render services to or with any other person, firm, corporation or other entity unaffiliated with the Company Group, or hire or retain any such employee, representative or agent, or take any action to materially assist or aid any other person, firm, corporation or other entity in identifying, hiring or soliciting any such employee, representative or agent, or (iii) knowingly interfere, or knowingly aid or induce any other person or entity in interfering, with the relationship between the Company Group or any of its affiliates and any of their respective vendors, joint venturers or licensors. An employee, representative or agent shall be deemed covered by this Section 11(b) while so employed or retained and for a period of nine (9) months thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 11(b) shall not be violated by general advertising or solicitation not specifically targeted at Company Group-related persons or entities. (c) NONDISPARAGEMENT. Both during the Employment Term and at all times thereafter, regardless of the reason for termination, the Executive agrees not to make comments materially injurious to the reputation of the Company Group or otherwise disparage the Company Group or any of their officers, directors, employees, shareholders, members, agents or products. Any disclosure by the Executive in good faith in connection with any legal proceedings between the Executive and the Company Group, in response to legal process, required governmental testimony or filings, or administrative or arbitral proceedings (including, without limitation, depositions in connection with such proceedings) shall not be deemed to violate this Section 11(c). (d) RETURN OF COMPANY PROPERTY. On the date of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason (or at any time prior thereto at the Company Group’s request), the Executive shall return to the Company all property belonging to the Company Group or its affiliates including, but not limited to, any Company-provided laptops, computers, cell phones, wireless electronic mail devices or other equipment, or any property belonging to the Company Group and any Documents. The Executive also agrees to disclose to the Company, at the time his employment terminates or at such earlier time or times as the Board or its designee may specify, all passwords necessary or desirable to obtain access to, or that would assist in obtaining access to, any information which the Executive has password-protected on any computer equipment, network or system of the Company Group or any of its affiliates. (e) REASONABLENESS OF COVENANTS. In signing this Agreement, the Executive gives the Company Group assurance that the Executive has carefully read and considered all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed under this Section 11. The Executive agrees that these restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company Group and its affiliates and their confidential information and that each and every one of the restraints is reasonable in respect of subject matter, length of time and geographic area, and that these restraints, individually or in the aggregate, will not prevent the Executive from obtaining other suitable employment during the period in which the Executive is bound by the restraints. The non-prevailing party will reimburse the prevailing party for all costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with any action to enforce any of the provisions of this Section 11. It is also agreed that each of the Company Group’s affiliates will have the right to enforce all of the Executive’s obligations to that affiliate under this Agreement, including without limitation pursuant to this Section 11. (f) REFORMATION. If it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in any state that any restriction in this Section 11 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under applicable law, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of that state. (g) TOLLING. In the event of any violation of the provisions of this Section 11, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that the post-termination restrictions contained in this Section 11 shall be extended by a period of time equal to the period of such violation, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the running of the applicable post-termination restriction period shall be tolled during any period of such violation; provided, that tolling period shall not exceed sixty (60) days after the Company Group has knowledge of such violation. (h) SURVIVAL OF PROVISIONS. The obligations contained in Sections 11 through 13 hereof shall survive the termination or expiration of the Employment Term and the Executive’s employment with the Company and shall be fully enforceable thereafter. 12. COOPERATION. In connection with any termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive agrees to assist the Company Group, as reasonably requested by the Company Group, in its succession planning efforts to facilitate a smooth transition of the Executive’s job responsibilities to the Executive’s successor. In addition, upon the receipt of reasonable notice from the Company Group (including outside counsel), the Executive agrees that while employed by, or providing services to, the Company Group and thereafter, the Executive will respond and provide truthful information with regard to matters in which the Executive has knowledge as a result of the Executive’s employment with the Company Group, and will reasonably cooperate with the Company Group, its affiliates and their respective representatives in defense of all claims that may be made against the Company Group or its affiliates, and will cooperate with the Company Group and its affiliates in the prosecution of all claims that may be made by the Company Group or its affiliates, to the extent that such claims may relate to the period of the Executive’s employment or service with the Company Group and the Company reasonably believes that the Executive has pertinent knowledge or information related to such claims. The Executive agrees to promptly inform the Company (to the extent that the Executive is legally permitted to do so) if the Executive becomes aware of any lawsuit involving such third party claims that may be filed or threatened against the Company Group or its affiliates. The Executive also agrees to promptly inform the Company (to the extent that the Executive is legally permitted to do so) if the Executive is asked to assist in any investigation of the Company Group or its affiliates (or their actions), regardless of whether a lawsuit or other proceeding has then been filed against the Company Group or its affiliates with respect to such investigation, and shall not do so unless legally required.
