THIS GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS (this “Release”) is entered into by and between Erasca, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Gary Yeung, MBA, CFA (“Employee”), as of the Effective Date (as defined below).

WHEREAS, Employee’s employment with the Company will terminate effective December 15, 2020 (the “Separation Date”);

WHEREAS, the parties agree that the Company has offered to Employee the termination payment provided in Section 2(d) below, which represent amounts to which Employee was not otherwise entitled, in connection with his termination of employment on the terms and conditions set forth herein, subject to Employee’s execution and non-revocation of this Release; and

WHEREAS, the Company and Employee now wish to fully and finally resolve all matters between them.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of, and subject to, the termination payment payable to Employee described in Section 2(d) below, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by Employee, and which Employee acknowledges that he would not otherwise be entitled to receive, Employee and the Company hereby agree as follows:

1. Effective Date; Termination of Employment.

(a) Effective Date. This Release shall become effective upon Employee’s execution of the Release (which shall occur no earlier than the Separation Date) and the expiration of the revocation period applicable under Section 3(d) without Employee having given notice of revocation. The “Effective Date” shall be the eighth (8th) day following Employee’s execution of this Release without revocation. Employee understands that Employee will not be given any termination payment under Section 2(d) of this Release unless the Effective Date occurs on or before the date that is thirty (30) days following the Separation Date. In the event the Effective Date does not occur on or before the date that is thirty (30) days following the Separation Date, this Release shall be null and void.

(b) Termination of Employment. Employee has previously tendered his resignation to the Company, effective as of the Separation Date. Accordingly, Employee’s employment by the Company will terminate effective as of Separation Date. Employee hereby resigns from any and all titles or positions he may hold with the Company (and any of its affiliates and subsidiaries) effective as of the Separation Date, including his position as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer as well as any board positions he holds with any subsidiaries of the Company. Employee shall execute any additional documentation necessary to effectuate such resignations. Employee’s “separation from service” for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), shall be the Separation Date.

2. Compensation.

(a) Compensation Through Separation Date. On the Separation Date, the Company shall issue to Employee his final paycheck, reflecting (i) Employee’s fully earned but unpaid base salary, through the Separation Date at the rate then in effect, and (ii) all accrued, unused paid time off or vacation due Employee through the Separation Date. Subject to Section 2(b) below, Employee acknowledges and agrees that with his final check, Employee will have received all monies, bonuses, commissions, expense reimbursements, paid time off or vacation, or other compensation he earned or was due during his employment by the Company.

 


(b) Expense Reimbursements. The Company, within thirty (30) days after the Separation Date, will reimburse Employee for any and all reasonable and necessary business expenses incurred by Employee in connection with the performance of his job duties prior to the Separation Date, which expenses shall be submitted to the Company with supporting receipts and/or documentation no later than thirty (30) days after the Separation Date.

(c) Benefits. Employee’s entitlement to benefits from the Company, and eligibility to participate in the Company’s benefit plans, shall cease on the Separation Date, except to the extent Employee elects to and is eligible to receive continued healthcare coverage pursuant to the provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), for himself and any covered dependents, in accordance with the provisions of COBRA.

(d) Termination Benefit. In exchange for Employee’s agreement to be bound by the terms of this Release, including, but not limited to, the release of claims in Section 3, and subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date as provided in Section 1(a), Employee shall be entitled to receive a cash payment in the amount of $99,600, representing Employee’s target annual bonus for 2020, payable in a lump sum on the first regularly scheduled payroll date following the Effective Date, subject to applicable withholdings. The payment in this Section 2(d) shall be the exclusive termination benefits to which Employee is entitled, unless Employee has failed to comply with the provisions of this Release (including Section 2(f) regarding the return of Company property), in which case the last sentence of Section 4(a) shall apply.

(e) Forfeiture or Repurchase of Certain Restricted Shares. Employee previously received or purchased the following shares of common stock of the Company:

As of the Separation Date, 291,666 of the July 2018 Shares were vested and 208,334 of the July 2018 Shares were unvested. Effective as of the Separation Date, pursuant to Section 2(a) of the July 2018 RSA, all of the 208,334 unvested July 2018 Shares will automatically be forfeited by Employee for no consideration and without any further action by the Company.

(ii) 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “First Tranche December 2019 Shares”) purchased by Employee on February 18, 2020 upon the early exercise of stock options granted to him by the Company pursuant to that certain Stock Option Grant Notice and Stock Option Agreement dated December 11, 2019 (the “First December 2019 Option Agreement”), at a purchase price per share of $0.56. As of the Separation Date, 100,000 of the First Tranche December 2019 Shares were vested and 200,000 of the First Tranche December 2019 Shares were unvested. Effective as of the Separation Date, pursuant to Section 2(a) of the First Tranche December 2019 Option Agreement, all 200,000 of the unvested First Tranche December 2019 Shares are hereby repurchased by the Company at a repurchase price of $0.56 per share, for an aggregate repurchase price of $112,000.00.

(iii) 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Second Tranche December 2019 Shares”) purchased by Employee on February 18, 2020 upon the early exercise of stock options granted to him by the Company pursuant to that certain Stock Option Grant Notice and Stock Option Agreement dated December 11, 2019 (the “Second December 2019 Option Agreement”), at a purchase price per share of $0.56. As of the Separation Date, 50,000 of the Second Tranche December

Effective as of the Separation Date, pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Second December 2019 Option Agreement, all 150,000 of the unvested Second Tranche December 2019 Shares are hereby repurchased by the Company at a repurchase price of $0.56 per share, for an aggregate repurchase price of $84,000.00.

(iv) 646,522 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “September 2020 Shares”) purchased by Employee on October 5, 2020 upon the early exercise of stock options granted to him by the Company pursuant to that certain Stock Option Grant Notice and Stock Option Agreement dated September 23, 2020 (the “September 2020 Option Agreement”), at a purchase price per share of $1.04. As of the Separation Date, 26,938 of the September 2020 Shares were vested and 619,584 of the September 2020 Shares were unvested. Effective as of the Separation Date, pursuant to Section 2(a) of the September 2020 Option Agreement, all 619,584 of the unvested September 2020 Shares are hereby repurchased by the Company at a repurchase price of $1.04 per share, for an aggregate repurchase price of $644,367.36.

(v) The aggregate repurchase price payable pursuant to clauses (e)(ii), (iii) and (iv) above of $840,367.36 was paid by the Company to Employee on the Separation Date by delivery of a check or wire transfer of the aggregate purchase price. The foregoing forfeiture and repurchases from the Employee was effective on the books and records of the Company as of the Separation Date, regardless of whether or not Employee returns to the Company his original stock certificate(s) representing the forfeited or repurchased shares. Employee agrees that any original stock certificate(s) for his forfeited and repurchased shares shall be cancelled, or an appropriate entry made on the Company’s stock ledger reflecting such forfeiture and repurchases, and the Company agrees to issue new stock certificate(s) or make new book entries on its stock ledger representing any remaining vested shares which he will continue to own following the foregoing repurchase. Any remaining vested shares will remain subject to the terms of the equity plan and award agreements pursuant to which they were originally issued. The foregoing forfeiture and repurchases shall be effective as of the Separation Date without regard to the effectiveness of this Release or the occurrence of the Effective Date.

(f) Return of the Company’s Property. On the Separation Date, and prior to the payment of any amounts to Employee under Section 2(d) above, Employee shall immediately surrender to the Company all Company equipment, lists, books and records of, or in connection with, the Company’s business, and all other property belonging to the Company, including, without limitation, Employee’s Company-issued laptop, it being distinctly understood that all such equipment, lists, books and records, and other documents, are the property of the Company and shall be returned with all stored data and files intact.

6. Miscellaneous.

(a) Assignment; Assumption by Successor.

If a deemed modification is not satisfactory in the judgment of such arbitrator or court, the unenforceable provision shall be deemed deleted, and the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby.

(e) Interpretation; Construction. The headings set forth in this Release are for convenience only and shall not be used in interpreting this Release. This Release has been drafted by legal counsel representing the Company, but Employee has participated in the negotiation of its terms. Furthermore, Employee acknowledges that Employee has had an opportunity to review and revise the Release and have it reviewed by legal counsel, if desired, and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Release. Either party’s failure to enforce any provision of this Release shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision, or prevent that party thereafter from enforcing each and every other provision of this Release.

(d) Governing Law and Venue. This Release is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States of America and the State of California applicable to contracts made and to be performed wholly within such State, and without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

(e) Entire Agreement; Modification. This Release and the PIIA set forth the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all existing agreements between them concerning such subject matter, including without limitation, that certain offer letter dated February 5, 2020, between Employee and the Company. Employee expressly acknowledges and agrees that he is not eligible for any severance or termination benefits under such offer letter, which is hereby terminated.

No oral waiver, amendment or modification will be effective under any circumstances whatsoever.

(f) Counterparts. This Release may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Release.

(g) Withholding and other Deductions. All compensation payable to Employee hereunder shall be subject to such deductions as the Company is from time to time required to make pursuant to law, governmental regulation or order.

(h) Section 409A.

(i) It is intended that all of the termination benefits and other payments payable under this Release satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A of the Code provided under Treasury Regulations 1.409A-1(b)(4), 1.409A-1(b)(5) and 1.409A-1(b)(9), and this Release will be construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions, and to the extent not so exempt, this Release (and any definitions hereunder) will be construed in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code.    

(ii) To the extent applicable, this Release shall be interpreted in accordance with the applicable exemptions from Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision of the Release is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner that no payments payable under this Release shall be subject to an “additional tax” as defined in Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code.

(iii) For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, Employee’s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Release will be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Release specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period will be within the sole discretion of the Company.

(iv) Any reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits payable under this Release shall be made in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) and shall be paid on or before the last day of Employee’s taxable year following the taxable year in which Employee incurred the expenses. The amount of expenses reimbursed or in-kind benefits payable during any taxable year of Employee’s will not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits payable in any other taxable year of Employee’s, and Employee’s right to reimbursement for such amounts shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

(i) RIGHT TO ADVICE OF COUNSEL. EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE HAS THE RIGHT, AND IS ENCOURAGED, TO CONSULT WITH HIS LAWYER; BY HIS SIGNATURE BELOW, EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE HAS CONSULTED, OR HAS ELECTED NOT TO CONSULT, WITH HIS LAWYER CONCERNING THIS RELEASE.
