or Section 105(h) of the Code, these payments shall be treated as taxable payments to Executive and Executive shall be subject to imputed income tax treatment to the extent necessary to eliminate any discriminatory treatment or taxation under the Act or Section 105(h).

Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, until the expiration of the Restricted Period, Executive will not serve as an officer, director, employee, independent contractor, consultant, agent, or otherwise provide services to, or have any ownership interest in, any entity which engages in any activities anywhere in the world concerning WT1/HER2 peptide vaccines for the treatment of cancer. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds this non-competition provision invalid or unenforceable due to unreasonableness in time, geographic scope, or scope of the Company Group’s business, then Executive agrees that such court shall interpret and enforce this provision to the maximum extent that such court deems reasonable.

C.Exceptions. Executive’s ownership of less than 5% of the stock of a company that is competitive with the activities of the Company Group as described in Section 7(B) and listed on a national securities exchange shall not be deemed to violate the prohibitions of Section 7(B). Also, Executive shall not be considered to have violated Section 7(B) with respect to the purchasing entity if there is a sale and Executive becomes an employee, officer, director or shareholder of the purchasing entity.

8.NONSOLICITATION.

A.Of Employees. Until the expiration of the Restricted Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, either on Executive’s own account or for any other person or entity: (a) employ, solicit, induce, advise, or otherwise convince, interfere with the Company Group’s employment of, or offer employment to, any employee of the Company Group; (b) employ or otherwise interfere with the Company Group’s engagement with, or offer employment to, any consultant of Company with whom the Executive had material dealings or material knowledge of; or (c) induce or attempt to induce any such employee or consultant to breach their employment agreement or relationship or consulting agreement or relationship with the Company Group; provided, however, that Executive shall not be in breach of this provision if any such employee or consultant, without inducement or solicitation by Executive, applies for employment at Executive’s subsequent employer in response to a general advertisement soliciting employment.

B.Of Clients. Until the expiration of the Restricted Period, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, either on Executive’s own account or for any other person or entity: (i) solicit, invite, induce, cause, or encourage to alter or terminate his, her, or its business relationship with the Company Group, any client, customer, supplier, vendor, licensee, licensor, or other person or entity that, at any time during Executive’s employment with the Company Group, had a business relationship with the Company Group, or any person or entity whose business the Company Group was soliciting or attempting to solicit at the time of Executive’s termination; (ii) solicit, entice, attempt to solicit or entice, or accept business (which is substantially related to the business of the Company) from any such client, customer, supplier, vendor, licensee, licensor, person, or entity; or (iii) interfere or attempt to interfere with any aspect of the business relationship between the Company Group and any such client, customer, supplier, vendor, licensee, licensor, person, or entity.

C.For purposes of and as it is referenced in this Section 8 of the Agreement only, Executive’s period of employment with the Company shall be deemed to encompass any period, including before the Employment Term, during which Executive is or was an employee, consultant, independent contractor, officer and/or director of the Company Group.

9.REASONABLENESS OF RESTRICTIONS; REMEDIES.

Executive has carefully read and considered the restrictive covenants set forth in Sections 6-8 hereof, and understands Executive’s obligations thereunder, the limitations such obligations will impose upon Executive after termination of Executive’s employment with Company. Executive has had full opportunity to review this Agreement with an attorney of his choosing, and Company has hereby advised him to do so, specifically Sections 6-8, before executing the Agreement. Executive agrees that, as a result of Executive’s position with Company, the length of the Restricted Period and each restriction set forth in Sections 6-8 herein are (1) fair and reasonable, (2) reasonably required for the protection of the legitimate business interests and goodwill established by Company, (3) fair and reasonable in that Company’s agreement to employ Executive, and a portion of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder, are in consideration for such covenants and Executive’s continued compliance therewith, and constitute adequate and sufficient consideration for such covenants, and (4) not overly broad or unduly burdensome to Executive, either in geographic or temporal scope. Executive acknowledges that Executive’s compliance with Executive’s obligations and restrictive covenants set forth in this Agreement is necessary to protect the business and goodwill of Company. Executive agrees that Executive’s breach of Executive’s obligations and/or restrictive covenants under this Agreement may irreparably and continually damage Company, for which money damages may not be adequate. Consequently, Executive agrees that in the event that Executive breaches or threatens to breach any of the obligations and/or restrictive covenants contained herein, Company shall be entitled to: (a) seek injunctive relief to prevent or halt Executive from breaching this Agreement; and (b) money damages as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Executive hereby agrees that injunctive relief may be granted by a court of competent jurisdiction without the necessity of Company to post bond, or if required to post bond, Executive agrees that the lowest amount permitted shall be adequate. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit Company from pursuing any other remedy available or from seeking to enforce any restrictive covenants to a lesser extent than set forth herein. The Parties agree that all remedies shall be cumulative. Each party is responsible for its own costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees.

10. NO PRIOR RESTRICTIONS.

Executive hereby represents and warrants to Company that the execution, delivery, and performance by Executive of Executive’s duties under this Agreement do not violate any provision of any agreement or restrictive covenant which Executive has with any former employer or any other entity. Executive further agrees to honor and inform Company of any and all post-employment obligations Executive has to any former employer or any other entity with which Executive has or had a business relationship.

11. SECTION 409A.

A.The intent of the Parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “Code Section 409A”). Accordingly, if any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous, such that one interpretation would subject a payment or benefit to the excise tax imposed by Code Section 409A and an alternative interpretation would not so subject the payment or benefit, the Parties intend the interpretation that would not so subject the payment or benefit to apply.

B.With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A: (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit; (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided that this clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(a) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect; and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred.

C.For purposes of Code Section 409A, each payment hereunder shall be treated as a separate payment and Executive’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. In no event may Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment to be made under this Agreement that is considered nonqualified deferred compensation.

D.Termination of employment and similar terms as used herein shall mean separation from service within the meaning of Code Section 409A. In the event at the time of any separation from service Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, any deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A payable as a result of such termination shall not be paid prior to the earlier of six (6) months after such termination and Executive’s death and shall be paid immediately thereafter.

E.In no event shall the Company have any liability 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 Code Section 409A.

12.SECTION 280G.

A.To the extent that any payment, benefit or distribution of any type to or for Executive’s benefit by the Company

or any of its affiliates, whether paid or payable, provided or to be provided, or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (including, without limitation, any accelerated vesting of stock options or other equity-based awards) (collectively, the “Total Payments”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), then the Total Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) so that the maximum amount of the Total Payments (after reduction) shall be one dollar ($1.00) less than the amount which would cause the Total Payments to be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, but only if the Total Payments so reduced result in Executive receiving a net after tax amount that exceeds the net after tax amount Executive would receive if the Total Payments were not reduced and were instead subject to the excise tax imposed on excess parachute payments by Section 4999 of the Code. Unless Executive shall have given prior written notice to the Company to effectuate a reduction in the Total Payments if such a reduction is required, any such notice consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code to avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest thereunder, the Company shall reduce or eliminate the Total Payments by first reducing or eliminating any cash severance benefits (with the payments to be made furthest in the future being reduced first), then by reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of stock options or similar awards, then by reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of restricted stock or similar awards, then by reducing or eliminating any other remaining Total Payments. The preceding provisions of this Section shall take precedence over the provisions of any other plan, arrangement or agreement governing Executive’s rights and entitlements to any benefits or compensation.

B.If the Total Payments to Executive are reduced in accordance with Section 12(A), as a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial reduction under Section 12(A), it is possible that Total Payments to Executive which will not have been made by the Company should have been made (“Underpayment”) or that Total Payments to Executive which were made should not have been made (“Overpayment”). If an Underpayment has occurred, the amount of any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive. In the event of an Overpayment, then Executive shall promptly repay to the Company the amount of any such Overpayment together with interest on such amount (at the same rate as is applied to determine the present value of payments under Section 280G of the Code or any successor thereto), from the date the reimbursable payment was received by Executive to the date the same is repaid to the Company.

13.ARBITRATION.

A.This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (without regard to any conflicts of laws principles thereof that would give effect to the laws of another jurisdiction), and any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, other than injunctive relief, will be settled exclusively by arbitration, conducted before a single arbitrator in New York, New York in accordance with, and pursuant to, the Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS ( “JAMS”), a copy of which rules, which are available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-employment-arbitration/, have been reviewed by Executive in their current form. The arbitrator shall have the power to take interim measures, and to rule on such arbitrator’s own jurisdiction, including on any objections with respect to the existence, scope or validity of this arbitration clause.

B.The arbitration shall be conducted on a strictly confidential basis, and neither party shall disclose the existence of a claim, the nature of a claim, any documents, exhibits, or information exchanged or presented in connection with such a claim, or the result of any action (collectively, “Arbitration Materials”), to any third party, except as required by law, with the sole exception of their legal counsel and parties engaged by that counsel to assist in the arbitration process, who also shall be bound by these confidentiality terms. The arbitrator shall be authorized to issue any award, relief or other remedy which a court of competent jurisdiction would be entitled to issue. The Parties shall have the right to conduct discovery, including through depositions, interrogatories, requests for documents, and requests for admission. The arbitrator shall issue a written decision, which decision shall include a statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which any arbitral award is based. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding upon the parties hereto. Any arbitral award may be entered as a judgment or order in any court of competent jurisdiction. Either party may commence litigation in court to obtain injunctive relief in aid of arbitration, to compel arbitration, or to confirm or vacate an award, to the extent authorized by the Federal Arbitration Act or applicable state law. The Company shall pay the JAMS administrative fees and the arbitrator’s fee and expenses. Each Party will pay its own attorneys’ fees; provided, however, that if Executive is the prevailing party, the Company shall pay Executive’s attorneys’ fees. Executive and the Company each agree that any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and that no dispute between the parties relating to this Agreement may be consolidated or joined with a dispute between any other employee and the Company or any of its affiliates, nor may Executive seek to bring Executive’s dispute on behalf of other employees, independent contractors or consultants of the Company or any of its affiliates as a class or collective action. The parties agree to take all steps necessary to protect the confidentiality of the Arbitration Materials in connection with any such proceeding and agree to the entry of an appropriate protective order encompassing the confidentiality terms of this Agreement.

C.TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, EXECUTIVE AND THE COMPANY HEREBY WAIVE AND COVENANT THAT EXECUTIVE AND THE COMPANY WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE) ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, WHETHER NOW OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, AND AGREE THAT ANY OF THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR EXECUTIVE MAY FILE

A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES, ON THE ONE HAND, AND EXECUTIVE, ON THE OTHER HAND, IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN SUCH PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT ANY PROCEEDING PROPERLY HEARD BY A COURT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

14.NOTICES.

Any notice or communication required or permitted to be given hereunder may be delivered by hand, deposited with an overnight courier, sent by confirmed email, confirmed facsimile, or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, in the case of Company, addressed to Company’s principal office marked attention to the Chairman of the Board, and in the case of Executive, addressed to Executive’s personal address as appearing in Company’s payroll records, and in each case to such other mail address, email address, or facsimile number as may hereafter be furnished in writing by either Party to the other Party.

Executive hereby grants to Company a license to use, without further compensation or approval from Executive, Executive’s name, image, portrait, voice, likeness and all other rights of publicity, or any derivative or modification thereto that Company may create, in any and all mediums, now known or hereafter developed, provided that such use is in relation to Company’s business and consistent with professional business standards, and does not disparage or denigrate Executive.

16. INDEMNIFICATION; LIABILITY INSURANCE.

Company shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in effect at the time this provision is implicated against and in respect of any and all actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs, expenses (including advancement of reasonable attorneys’ fees), losses, and damages resulting from Executive’s good-faith performance, within the scope of his employment, of Executive’s duties and obligations with Company. The Company agrees to maintain insurance policies generally for the benefit of officers and directors of Company and Executive will be entitled to be covered thereunder, both during and, while potential liability exists, by and pursuant to the terms of any such policy against all costs, charges and expenses incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which Executive may be made a party by reason of being an officer or director of Company in the same amount and to the same extent as Company covers its other officers and directors. These obligations shall survive the termination of Executive’s employment with Company.
