B. Following the consummation of the Offer, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, whereby, except as expressly provided in Section 2.5, (i) each issued and outstanding Company Share (other than Excluded Shares and Dissenting Shares) as of the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, without interest, subject to any applicable withholding Taxes, and (ii) the Company shall become a direct wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent as a result of the Merger.

AGREEMENT

The Parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

SECTION 1 THE OFFER

1.1 The Offer.

(a) Commencement of the Offer. Provided that this Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with Section 8, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Agreement Date, subject to the Company then being prepared to file the Schedule 14D-9 on the same day as the commencement of the Offer, and having complied in all material respects with its obligations to provide information to Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.1(e) and 1.2(b), but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days after the Agreement Date, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) the Offer.

(d) Termination of Offer. In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) promptly (and, in any event, within one (1) Business Day of such termination), irrevocably and unconditionally terminate the Offer and shall not acquire any Company Shares pursuant to the Offer. If the Offer is terminated or withdrawn by Purchaser, Purchaser shall promptly return, and shall cause any depository acting on behalf of Purchaser to return, in accordance with applicable Laws, all tendered Company Shares to the registered holders thereof.

As promptly as practicable on the Offer Commencement Date (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act), Parent and Purchaser shall (i) file with the SEC a tender offer statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with all amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto, the “Schedule TO”) that will contain or incorporate by reference the Offer to Purchase and form of the related letter of transmittal and (ii) cause the Offer to Purchase and related documents to be disseminated to holders of Company Shares, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities Laws. Parent and Purchaser agree that they shall cause the Schedule TO and all amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto (which together constitute the “Offer Documents”) filed by either Parent or Purchaser with the SEC to comply in all material respects with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and other applicable Laws. Each of Parent, Purchaser and the Company agrees to promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Offer Documents if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and Parent further agrees to use all reasonable efforts to cause the Offer

Parent and Purchaser shall, and each of Parent and Purchaser shall ensure that all of their respective controlled Affiliates shall, tender any Company Shares held by them into the Offer.

(g) Adjustments. If, between the Agreement Date and the Offer Acceptance Time, the outstanding Company Shares are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Offer Price shall be appropriately adjusted.

(h) Acceptance. Subject only to the satisfaction or, to the extent waivable by Purchaser or Parent, waiver by Purchaser or Parent of each of the Offer Conditions, Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Purchaser to) promptly after the Expiration Date (i) irrevocably accept for payment all Company Shares tendered (and not validly withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer and (ii) pay for such Company Shares.

2.6 Surrender of Certificates; Stock Transfer Books.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent (the “Paying Agent”) for the holders of Company Shares to receive the aggregate Offer Price to which such holders shall become entitled pursuant to Section 1.1(b) and the aggregate Merger Consideration to which such holders shall become entitled pursuant to Section 2.5. Substantially concurrent with the Effective Time, Parent or Purchaser shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent cash sufficient to make payment of the aggregate Offer Price payable pursuant to Section 1.1(b) and the aggregate Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.5 (together, the “Payment Fund”). The Payment Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by Parent or the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Promptly after the Effective Time (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days thereafter), the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be mailed to each Person who was, at the Effective Time, a holder of record of the Company Shares entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.5 (i) a form of letter of transmittal (which shall be in reasonable and customary form and shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the certificates evidencing such Company Shares (the “Certificates”) shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof in accordance with Section 2.6(e), if applicable) to the Paying Agent), or a customary agent’s message in respect of Book-Entry Shares and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to such letter of transmittal. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu in accordance with Section 2.6(e), if applicable) or Book-Entry Shares, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration for each Company Share

7

formerly evidenced by such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, and such Certificates and Book-Entry Shares shall then be canceled. No interest shall accrue or be paid on the Offer Price payable upon the surrender of any Certificates or Book-Entry Shares, for the benefit such holder. If the payment of any Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificates formerly evidencing the Company Shares is registered on the stock transfer books of the Company, it shall be a condition of payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be endorsed properly or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid all Transfer Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not applicable. None of Parent, Purchaser and the Surviving Corporation shall have any liability for the Transfer Taxes described in this Section 2.6(b) under any circumstance. Payment of the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.6, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 2.5.

(c) At any time following twelve (12) months after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to require the Paying Agent to deliver to it any funds which had been made available to the Paying Agent and not disbursed to holders of Certificates, or Book-Entry Shares (including, all interest and other income received by the Paying Agent in respect of all funds made available to it), and, thereafter, such holders shall be entitled to look to the Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar Laws) only as general creditors thereof with respect to the Merger Consideration, as applicable, that may be payable upon due surrender of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares held by them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Surviving Corporation nor the Paying Agent shall be liable to any holder of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares for the Merger Consideration delivered in respect of such shares to any Governmental Entity pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by such holders at such time at which such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, the property of the Surviving Corporation or its designee, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(d) At the close of business on the Closing Date, the stock transfer books of the Company with respect to the Company Shares shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Shares on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares except as otherwise provided herein or by applicable Laws.

(e) If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an effective affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, which shall include an agreement to indemnify and defend and hold harmless Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the Paying Agent from and against any and all costs, claims, losses, judgments, damages, counsel fees, expenses and liabilities whatsoever which each may suffer, sustain or incur in connection with the failure of any statement, representation or warranty set forth

8

in such affidavit, any payment for or transfer, exchange or delivery of such Certificate and such Person’s inability to locate such Certificate, and, if required by Parent or the Paying Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, Purchaser, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will pay (less any amounts entitled to be deducted or withheld pursuant to Section 2.9), in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the applicable Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Company Shares formerly represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Section 2.

2.7 Dissenters’ Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, and held by holders who are entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL and have properly exercised and perfected their respective demands for appraisal of such shares in the time and manner provided in Section 262 of the DGCL and, as of the Effective Time, have neither effectively withdrawn nor lost their rights to such appraisal and payment under the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration, but shall, by virtue of the Merger, be automatically cancelled and no longer outstanding, shall cease to exist and the holder thereof shall be entitled to only such consideration as shall be determined pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL in respect of any such shares; provided that if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s right to appraisal, such holder’s Company Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration without any interest thereon (less any amounts entitled to be deducted or withheld pursuant to Section 2.9), and such shares shall not be deemed to be Dissenting Shares. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of Company Shares, and Parent shall have the right to participate in and direct (provided that such direction may not result in a binding obligation on the part of the Company that is effective prior to the Effective Time) all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Closing, Parent shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Company, require the Company to make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands. The Company shall provide each of the holders of Company Common Stock as of the record date for the purpose of receiving the notice required by Section 262(d) of the DGCL with the notice contemplated thereby as part of the Schedule 14D-9.

2.8 Treatment of Company Options.

(a) Each Company Option that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (i) that would otherwise be eligible to vest in accordance with its terms on or before June 1, 2021, subject solely to the continued services of the holder of such Company Option with the Company through such date or (ii) held by a non-employee director of the Company, shall accelerate and become fully vested and exercisable effective immediately prior to, and contingent upon, the Effective Time, subject to the continued services of the holder of such Company Option with the Company through immediately prior to the Effective Time. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of the holders thereof, Parent, Purchaser or the Company, each Company Option that is then outstanding, vested and unexercised as of immediately before the Effective Time shall be

9

cancelled and converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to (A) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option immediately prior to such cancellation multiplied by (B) the excess, if any, of (x) the Merger Consideration over (y) the exercise price payable per share of Company Common Stock under such cancelled Company Option, without interest. No holder of a Company Option that has an exercise price per share of Company Common Stock that is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration shall be entitled to any payment with respect to such cancelled Company Option before or after the Effective Time.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but no later than fifteen (15) days after the Effective Time), Parent or Purchaser shall pay, or shall cause to be paid, through the Surviving Corporation’s or the applicable Subsidiary’s payroll the aggregate consideration payable hereunder with respect to vested Company Options (net of any withholding Taxes required to be deducted and withheld by applicable Law in accordance with Section 2.9) (e.g. with respect to payments made to a current or former Company employee); provided, however, that to the extent that withholding taxes are not required to be deducted and withheld by applicable Law (e.g., the holder of a Company Option is not, and was not at any time during the vesting period of the Company Option, an employee of the Company or any other Acquired Corporation for employment tax purposes), the consideration payable pursuant to this Section 2.8 with respect to such Company Option shall be deposited in the Payment Fund and paid by the Paying Agent in the manner described in Section 2.6.

(c) Subject to Section 2.8(a), each Company Option that is unvested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, be assumed by Parent and converted into an option to purchase Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares (each, a “Converted Option”). Except as expressly provided below, each Converted Option will continue to have and be subject to substantially the same vesting terms and conditions as were applicable to such Company Option immediately before the Effective Time, except that (i) each Converted Option will be exercisable for that number of shares of Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number) of (A) the number of Company Shares subject to the Company Option immediately before the Effective Time and (B) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio; and (ii) the per share exercise price for each share of Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Converted Option will be equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such Company Option immediately before the Effective Time by (B) the Equity Award Exchange Ratio; provided, however, that the exercise price and the number of shares of Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares purchasable under each Converted Option will be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder; provided, further, that in the case of any Company Option to which Section 422 of the Code applies, the exercise price and the number of Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares purchasable pursuant to such option shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing, subject to such adjustments as are necessary in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code and the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder.

10

(d) At the Effective Time, Parent shall assume the Company Equity Plans and be entitled to grant equity awards, to the extent permissible under applicable Law, using the remaining share reserve of the Viela Bio Amended and Restated 2018 Equity Incentive Plan as of the Effective Time (including any shares subsequently returned to such share reserves as a result of the termination and forfeiture of Company Options), except that: (i) shares covered by such awards shall be Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares; (ii) all references in the Viela Bio Amended and Restated 2018 Equity Incentive Plan to a number of Company Shares shall be deemed amended to refer instead to a number of Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares determined by multiplying the number of referenced Company Shares by the Equity Award Exchange Ratio, and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares; (iii) the compensation committee of Parent’s board of directors shall succeed to the authority and responsibility of the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to the administration of the Company Equity Plans; and (iv) the Company Equity Plans shall be subject to administrative procedures consistent with those in effect under Parent’s equity compensation plan.

(i) if the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (which Acquisition Proposal did not arise out of a material breach of Section 5.4) from any Person that has not been withdrawn and, after consultation with outside legal counsel and independent financial advisors, the Company Board shall have determined, in good faith, that such

51

Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal, (x) the Company Board may make a Company Adverse Change Recommendation, or (y) the Company may terminate this Agreement to enter into a Specified Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, in each case if and only if: (A) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and independent financial advisors, that the failure to do so is inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company Stockholders under applicable Laws; (B) the Company shall have given Parent prior written notice of its intention to consider making a Company Adverse Change Recommendation or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f) at least four (4) Business Days prior to making any such Company Adverse Change Recommendation or termination (a “Determination Notice”) (which notice shall not constitute a Company Adverse Change Recommendation); and (C) (1) the Company shall have provided to Parent all information contemplated to be provided in accordance with Section 5.4(d), (2) the Company shall have given Parent the four (4) Business Days after the Determination Notice to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement or make other proposals so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal, and shall have negotiated in good faith with Parent (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) with respect to such proposed revisions or other proposal, if any, (3) after considering the results of such negotiations and giving effect to the proposals made by Parent, if any, after consultation with outside legal counsel and independent financial advisors, the Company Board shall have determined, in good faith, that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Proposal and that the failure to make the Company Adverse Change Recommendation or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f) is inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company Stockholders under applicable Laws, and (4) if the Company intends to terminate this Agreement to enter into a Specified Agreement, the Company shall have complied with Section 8.1(f).

52

Parent, if any, after consultation with outside legal counsel, the Company Board shall have determined, in good faith, that the failure to make the Company Adverse Change Recommendation in response to such Intervening Event is inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company Stockholders under applicable Laws. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 6.1(b)(ii) shall also apply to any material change to the facts and circumstances relating to such Intervening Event and require a new Determination Notice, except that the references to four (4) Business Days shall be deemed to be three (3) Business Days.

Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Section 6.2, each Party hereto shall give the other Parties prompt notice of any pending or threatened request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding brought by a Governmental Entity, or brought by a third party before any Governmental Entity, in each case with respect to the Transactions under any Antitrust Laws (an “Antitrust Investigation”). In connection with any such Antitrust Investigation, and subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information and appropriate agreements to limit disclosure to outside counsel and consultants retained by such counsel and preserve the attorney-client or other legal privileges, each Party hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) keep the other Parties informed as to the status of any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding, (ii) promptly inform the other Parties

53

of any communication to or from the FTC, DOJ or any other Governmental Entity in connection with any such request, inquiry, investigation, action or Legal Proceeding (and if in writing, furnish the other Party with a copy of such communication), (iii) to the extent reasonably practicable, consult in advance and cooperate with the other Parties and consider in good faith the views of the other Parties in connection with any analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal to be made or submitted to any Governmental Entity, and (iv) except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Entity or by any Law, provide advance notice of and permit authorized Representatives of the other Party to be present at each material meeting or conference with any Governmental Entity and to have access to and be consulted in advance in connection with any argument, opinion or proposal to be made or submitted to any Governmental Entity. Parent may withdraw and refile its filing under the HSR Act if, in its good faith judgment, it determines (after consultation with the Company and taking the Company’s views into account), that the taking of such action would be consistent with, and would not undermine, the parties’ efforts to expeditiously consummate the Transactions.

(d) The Parties shall defend through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any Person, including any Governmental Entity, under Antitrust Laws in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any decree, order or judgment (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that could restrain, delay, or prevent the Closing by the End Date; provided that such litigation in no way limits the obligation of Purchaser and Parent to use their reasonable best efforts to make effective the Transactions as soon as reasonably practicable. The Company will not commit to or agree with any Governmental Entity to stay, toll or extend, directly or indirectly, any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, or pull and refile under the HSR Act, without Parent’s prior review and approval.

(e) Parent agrees that it shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, acquire or agree to acquire any assets, business or any Person, whether by merger, consolidation, purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in any Person or by any other manner or engage in any other transaction, if the entering into of an agreement relating to or the consummation of such acquisition, merger, consolidation or purchase or other transaction would reasonably be expected to make it materially more difficult or to materially increase the time required to obtain the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period pursuant to the HSR Act.

6.3 Company Equity Awards.

(a) Prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, the Company shall take all actions (including obtaining any necessary determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board or a committee thereof) that may be necessary (under the Company Equity Plans and award agreements pursuant to which Company Equity Awards are outstanding or otherwise) to (i) cause the treatment (as applicable) of each unexercised Company Option then outstanding as set forth in Section 2.8, and (ii) cause, as of the Effective Time, each unexpired and unexercised Company Option then outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time to be cancelled, terminated, extinguished, subject, if applicable, to payment or assumption and conversion by Parent, in either case, pursuant to Section 2.8.

54

(b) In lieu of the Company granting any Company Equity Awards for Fiscal Year 2021 to its employees in accordance with its compensation practices under the terms of the Company Equity Plans, no later than 30 days following the Closing, the Ultimate Parent will grant to each employee identified by the Company on Section 6.3(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter and who remains a Continuing Employee through the applicable grant date, an equity award under the assumed Viela Bio Amended and Restated 2018 Equity Incentive Plan and/or any Ultimate Parent equity incentive plan, as determined by Ultimate Parent in its discretion, with a grant date fair value for financial accounting purposes that is not less than the value set forth opposite each employee’s name of Section 6.3(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

6.4 Employee Benefits.

(a) Following the Closing Date and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Parent shall maintain, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain, for employees of the Company who continue in the employ of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries following the Closing Date (“Continuing Employees”), (i) no less than the same base salary or hourly wage and annual target cash bonus percentage as applicable to the Continuing Employees as of immediately prior to the Closing (provided that the bonus shall be governed by the plan generally applicable to employees of U.S. Subsidiaries of Parent) and (ii) other employee benefits which are no less favorable in the aggregate to either of the following (to be determined within the Parent’s sole discretion): (A) those provided to the Continuing Employees immediately prior to Closing, and (B) those provided to similarly situated employees of U.S. Subsidiaries of Parent (in either case, excluding any defined benefit pension benefits, retiree medical benefits and equity-based compensation), and in either case, subject to Section 6.4. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee of continued employment of any Continuing Employee and this Agreement shall not be construed so as to prohibit Parent or any of its Subsidiaries from having the right to terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee, provided that any such termination is effected in accordance with applicable Law.

(b) From and after the Closing, Parent shall make commercially reasonable efforts to provide, or to cause its Subsidiaries to provide, each Continuing Employee full credit for purposes of eligibility to participate under any Employee Benefit Plans and arrangements (with the exception of any applicable pension plan and post-retirement health and life insurance) that are provided, sponsored, maintained or contributed by U.S. Subsidiaries of Parent for such Continuing Employee’s service with the Company, to the same extent recognized by the Company, except to the extent such credit would result in the duplication of benefits for the same period of service.

(c) Parent shall make commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive for each Continuing Employee, and his or her dependents, any waiting period provision, payment requirement to avoid a waiting period, pre-existing condition limitation, actively-at-work requirement or any other restriction that would prevent immediate or full participation under the health and welfare plans of U.S. Subsidiaries of Parent applicable to such Continuing Employee to the extent such waiting period, payment requirement, pre-existing condition limitation, actively at work requirement or other restriction would not have been applicable to such Continuing Employee under the terms of the welfare plans of the Company, (ii) waive any and all evidence of insurability requirements (including pre-existing condition limitations, exclusions, waiting periods and actively-at-work requirements) with respect to such Continuing Employees to the extent such evidence of insurability requirements were not applicable to the Continuing Employees under the

55

Employee Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing, and (iii) give full credit under the welfare plans of Parent and its Subsidiaries applicable to each Continuing Employee and his or her dependents for all co-payments and deductibles satisfied prior to the Closing in the same plan year as the Closing and for any lifetime maximums, as if there had been a single continuous employer.

(d) Parent and Purchaser acknowledge that the Viela Bio, Inc. Executive Severance Plan adopted by the Company as of August 9, 2019 and the Viela Bio, Inc. Non-Executive Severance Plan adopted by the Company as of August 9, 2019 (the “Company Severance Plans”) will remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms and may not be amended, modified or terminated through and including the second anniversary of the Closing Date.

(e) The provisions of this Section 6.4 are solely for the benefit of the Parties to this Agreement, and no provision of this Section 6.4 is intended to, or shall, constitute the establishment or adoption of or an amendment to any Employee Benefit Plan for purposes of ERISA or otherwise. No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights in any current or former employee, director or other service provider of the Company in respect of any benefits that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any Employee Benefit Plan or benefit plan of Parent.

6.5 Termination of the Company’s 401(k) Plan. Unless otherwise directed by Parent in writing at least five (5) Business Days before the Effective Time, the Company shall take all necessary actions to terminate its 401(k) plan, with such termination effective as of no later than the date immediately preceding the Closing Date. The Company shall provide Parent with a copy of any resolutions or other corporate action (the form and substance of which shall be subject to review and approval by Parent) evidencing that the Company’s 401(k) plan will be terminated effective as of no later than the date immediately preceding the Closing Date, contingent upon the Effective Time, and will adopt any necessary amendments to the Company’s 401(k) plan to effect such termination. Prior to and conditioned upon termination of the Company’s 401(k) plan, the Company shall take any action necessary to fully vest any and all unvested amounts of the accounts of all participants in the Company’s 401(k) plan that are impacted by such termination.

6.6 Appointment of the Plan Administrator of the Severance Plans.    At least five (5) Business Days before the Effective Time, the Company shall take all necessary actions to appoint a committee composed of three individuals, two of whom are designated by Ultimate Parent and one of whom is designated by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, as the “Plan Administrator” for each of the Company Severance Plans following the Effective Time, with such appointments automatically effective as of the Effective Time. The Company shall provide Parent with a copy of any resolutions or other corporate action (the form and substance of which shall be subject to review and approval by Parent) evidencing such appointment.

6.7 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) All rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation by the Company existing in favor of those Persons who are directors or officers of any Acquired Corporation as of the Agreement Date or have been directors or officers of any Acquired Corporation in the past (the “Indemnified Persons”) for their acts and omissions occurring prior

56

to the Effective Time, as provided in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or applicable governing documents) of the Acquired Corporations (as in effect as of the Agreement Date) and as provided in the indemnification agreements between the Company and said Indemnified Persons (as set forth on Section 6.7(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter and in effect as of the Agreement Date) in the forms Made Available by the Company to Parent or Parent’s Representatives prior to the Agreement Date, shall survive the Merger and shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of such Indemnified Persons, except as required by applicable Law, and Surviving Corporation shall (and Ultimate Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to) observe, honor and fulfill such rights to the fullest extent available under Delaware law for a period of six years from the Effective Time, and any claim made pursuant to such rights within such six-year period shall continue to be subject to this Section 6.7(a) and the rights provided under this Section 6.7(a) until disposition of such claim.

(b) From the Effective Time until the sixth anniversary of the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, maintain, in effect, the existing policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Acquired Corporations as of the Agreement Date (an accurate and complete copy of which has been Made Available by the Company to Parent or Parent’s Representatives prior to the Agreement Date) (the “Existing D&O Policy”), to the extent that directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage is commercially available; provided, that: (i) the Surviving Corporation may substitute for the Existing D&O Policy a policy or policies of comparable coverage, including a “tail” or “runoff” insurance policy, (ii) Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay annual premiums for the Existing D&O Policy (or for any substitute or “tail” policies) in excess of an amount equal to 250% of the most recently paid annual premium for the Existing D&O Policy (the “Maximum Premium”) and (iii) if requested by Parent, the Company shall issue a broker of record letter acceptable to Parent permitting Parent’s insurance broker to negotiate and place such “tail” or “runoff” insurance of comparable coverage, and Parent shall have the right to negotiate such coverage and the Company shall reasonably cooperate therewith. In the event any future annual premiums for the Existing D&O Policy (or any substitute policies) exceed the Maximum Premium, the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to reduce the amount of coverage of the Existing D&O Policy (or any substitute or “tail” policies) to the amount of coverage that can be obtained for a premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(c) In the event Ultimate Parent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Ultimate Parent or Parent, as applicable, shall ensure that the successors and assigns of Ultimate Parent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, or at Parent’s option, Ultimate Parent or Parent, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.7.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.7 shall survive the acceptance of Company Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer and the consummation of the Merger and are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Persons and their successors, assigns and heirs and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by contract or otherwise. Unless

57

required by applicable Law, this Section 6.7 may not be amended, altered or repealed after the Offer Acceptance Time in such a manner as to adversely affect the rights of any Indemnified Person or any of their successors, assigns or heirs without the prior written consent of the affected Indemnified Person.

6.8 Securityholder Litigation. The Company shall promptly notify Parent of any litigation brought against the Company and/or members of the Company Board or the Company’s officers (in their respective capacities as such) relating to the Transactions (“Transaction Litigation”) and shall keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. The Company shall control any Transaction Litigation; provided, that the Company shall give Parent the right to review and comment in advance on all filings or responses to be made by the Company in connection with any such litigation and the right to participate (at Parent’s expense) in such litigation. No compromise or full or partial settlement of any Transaction Litigation shall be agreed to by the Company without Parent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For purposes of this Section 6.8, “participate” means that Parent will be kept reasonably apprised of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to any Transaction Litigation by the Company (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel is not undermined or otherwise adversely affected), and Parent may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Transaction Litigation but will not be afforded any decision-making power or other authority over such Transaction Litigation except for the settlement or compromise consent set forth above.

6.9 Additional Agreements. Without limitation or contravention of the provisions of Section 6.2, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Parent and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to consummate the Offer and the Merger and make effective the other Transactions.

(b) The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent (and shall subsequently keep Parent informed on a current basis of any developments related to such notice) upon its becoming aware of the occurrence or existence of any fact, event or circumstance that (i) has had or would reasonably be expected to result in any Company Material Adverse Effect and (ii) is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Section 7 or Annex I not being able to be satisfied prior to the End Date. Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company (and shall subsequently keep the Company informed on a current basis of any developments related to such notice) upon its becoming aware of the occurrence or existence of any fact, event or circumstance that (i) has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect or (ii) is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Section 7 or Annex I not being able to be satisfied prior to the End Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.11(b) shall not affect or be deemed to modify any representation, warranty, covenant, right, remedy under this Agreement.

6.12 Section 16 Matters. The Company, and the Company Board, shall, to the extent necessary, take appropriate action, prior to or as of the Offer Acceptance Time, to approve, for purposes of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the disposition and cancellation or deemed disposition and cancellation of Company Shares and Company Options in the Transactions by applicable individuals and to cause such dispositions and/or cancellations to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, the Compensation Committee of the Company Board, at a meeting duly called and held, will approve, as an “employment compensation, severance or other employee benefit arrangement” within the meaning of Rule 14d-10(d)(2) under the Exchange Act, each agreement, arrangement or understanding between Parent, Purchaser, the Company or their respective Affiliates and any of the officers, directors or employees of the Company that are effective as of the Agreement Date or

are entered into after the Agreement Date and prior to the Offer Acceptance Time pursuant to which compensation is paid to such officer, director or employee and will take all other action reasonably necessary to satisfy the requirements of the non-exclusive safe harbor set forth in Rule 14d-10(d) (2) under the Exchange Act. The Company shall provide a true and complete copy of the resolutions of the Compensation Committee of the Company Board reflecting any approvals and actions referred to in the preceding sentence to Parent prior to execution of this Agreement (the form and substance of which resolutions shall be subject to review and approval of Parent).

6.14 Stock Exchange Delisting; Deregistration. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable laws and rules and policies of Nasdaq to enable the delisting by the Surviving Corporation of the Company Shares from Nasdaq and the deregistration of the Company Shares under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, and in any event no more than ten (10) days after the Closing Date.

6.15 Financing.

(a) Purchaser and Parent shall, and shall cause Borrower (as defined in the Debt Commitment Letter) to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to arrange, consummate and obtain the proceeds of the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions not less favorable than those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter on or prior to the Closing Date (including but not limited to reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter, (ii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions to the Debt Financing that are within Parent’s, Purchaser’s and Borrower’s control, (iii) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing, and (iv) in the event that the Offer Conditions and the conditions set forth in Section 7 have been satisfied or, upon funding, would be satisfied or waived, draw an amount of the Debt Financing which, together with the cash on hand of Parent and Purchaser and the net proceeds of any offering of debt securities, is sufficient to enable Parent and Purchaser to fund the cash payments required to consummate the Transactions). None of Parent or Purchaser shall (and Parent shall cause Borrower not to), without the Company’s prior written consent, amend, modify, replace, terminate or agree to any waiver under the Debt Commitment Letter if such amendment, modification, replacement, termination or waiver (i) reduces the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing to an amount that, together with Parent’s and Purchaser’s cash on hand and the net proceeds of any offering of debt securities, would be less than an amount that would be required to fund the cash payments required to consummate the Transactions or (ii) changes the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing or adds new or additional conditions precedent to obtaining the Debt Financing, if such change would reasonably be expected to (A) materially delay or prevent the Closing, (B) make the funding of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing on the Closing Date) materially less likely to occur or (C) materially adversely impact the ability of the Borrower to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, Parent may cause the Borrower to (1) amend or replace the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Fee Letter to add lenders, arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents, managers or similar entities who had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the Agreement Date and (2) implement or exercise any “flex” provisions provided in the Debt Fee Letter as in effect on the

60

Agreement Date, in each case, not in contravention of the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Parent and Purchaser shall have the right to substitute other debt or equity financing for all or any portion of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter from the same and/or alternative Financing Sources so long as such substitute financing is subject to funding conditions that are not less favorable to Parent and Purchaser than the funding conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and so long as such substitute financing would not adversely impact the ability of Parent and Purchaser to consummate the Transactions on a timely basis. If any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions or within the timing contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Commitment Letter shall be terminated or modified for any reason (but without waiving any responsibility or liability for breach by Parent or Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement), then Parent and Purchaser shall use their reasonable best efforts to arrange to obtain alternative debt financing commitments (together with any replacements or substitutions of any of the foregoing from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, any “Alternative Debt Financing”) from alternative lenders in an amount, when taken together with the cash on hand of Parent and Purchaser and the net proceeds of any offering of debt securities, sufficient to consummate the Transactions. The obligations of Parent and Purchaser hereunder shall apply equally to any such Alternative Debt Financing (including any new financing commitment). Upon the request of the Company, Parent and Purchaser shall keep the Company reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange such Alternative Debt Financing and shall, upon request, provide true and correct copies of all documents related to any Alternative Debt Financing to the Company promptly upon their execution. The terms “Debt Financing” and “Debt Commitment Letter” as used herein shall be deemed to include the Debt Financing or Debt Commitment Letter, as the case may be, that is not so superseded at the time in question or that is amended, supplemented, modified, superseded or replaced in accordance with the terms hereof and any Alternative Debt Financing entered into in accordance herewith to the extent then in effect.

(b) Subject to Section 5.1, during the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall prepare and furnish to Parent and the Financing Sources as promptly as reasonably practicable following request therefor (i) information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries (including information to be used in the preparation of one or more information packages regarding the business, operations, financial projections and prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries) customary for the arrangement of loans contemplated by the Debt Financing or customary for the offering and placement of debt securities, to the extent reasonably requested by Parent to assist in preparation of customary rating agency or lender presentations, bank information, offering or private placement memoranda, prospectuses and similar documents relating to such arrangement of loans or placement of debt securities and (ii) all consolidated financial statements, historical business and other financial data, and audit reports of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and any supplements thereto required under the Debt Commitment Letter and written financial information reasonably necessary for the Parent, Borrower and the Financing Sources to prepare the “Information Memorandum” referred to in the Debt Commitment Letter and other Information Materials (as defined in the Debt Commitment Letter) or reasonably necessary for the preparation of customary offering or private placement memoranda or prospectuses in connection with an offering of debt securities as contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, including the (A) audited consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries, for the fiscal year last ended, (B) unaudited

61

consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of the Company and its Subsidiaries, for each fiscal quarter ended after the Agreement Date (it being acknowledged and agreed that such unaudited quarterly financial statements shall be provided to Parent within forty (40) days after the completion of each fiscal quarter after the Agreement Date); provided, that the timely filing by the Company of the required financial statements specified in clauses (A) and (B) above in its Annual Report on Form 10-K or its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as applicable, will be deemed to satisfy the foregoing requirements in clauses (A) and (B) with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries (the information referred to in clause (ii) being referred to in this Agreement as the “Required Information”).

(c) Subject to Sections 5.1 and 6.15(d), during the Pre-Closing Period, the Company shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to, upon reasonable notice, provide Parent with all customary and necessary cooperation, as may be reasonably requested by Parent in connection with obtaining the Debt Financing, including by:

(iii) using reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent of, and customary comfort letters (including customary “negative assurance” comfort and change period comfort) from, the Company’s past and present auditors (including by providing customary management letters and requesting legal letters to obtain such consent) if necessary or desirable for Parent’s use of the Company’s financial statements in connection with the Debt Financing;

(iv) (A) assisting in the preparation of and, in connection with the Closing, executing one or more credit or other agreements, as well as any pledge and security documents, and other definitive financing documents, collateral filings or other certificates or documents as may be reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the Debt Financing and otherwise reasonably facilitating the pledging of collateral (including the delivery of original share certificates, together with share powers executed in blank, with respect to the Company) (in each case, subject to and only effective upon the occurrence of the Offer Acceptance Time) and (B) reasonably facilitating the taking of all corporate actions by the Company with respect to entering such definitive financing documents and otherwise necessary to permit consummation of the Debt Financing in connection with the Transactions; provided that, the effectiveness of any of the forgoing shall be subject to the occurrence of the Effective Time;

(ix) upon the request of Parent, publicly disclosing or permitting Parent to publicly disclose, in connection with any bona fide marketing activities related to the Debt Financing, any non-public business or financial information related to the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries that Parent reasonably determines, upon the advice of counsel, to be material to an investment decision in connection with the Debt Financing and is legally required to be disclosed in any offering documents related to any Debt Financing or Alternative Debt Financing; provided no such disclosure shall occur without the written consent of the Company, which consent cannot be unreasonably withheld;

(x) using reasonable best efforts to obtain waivers, consents, estoppels and approvals from other parties to material leases, encumbrances and Contracts to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party;

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including this Section 6.15), (i) nothing herein shall require any such cooperation to the extent it would (A) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or their respective Representatives, as applicable, to waive or amend any terms of this Agreement, (B) unreasonably disrupt the conduct of the ongoing business or operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (C) require the Company to agree to pay any fees, reimburse any expenses or otherwise incur any liability or give any indemnities that are not contingent upon the Effective Time or for which it is not promptly reimbursed or simultaneously indemnified, (D) require the Company to take any action that would reasonably be expected to conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, any applicable Laws, or any Contract, (E) require the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or their respective Representatives, as applicable, to prepare any projections or other “forward looking” or similar statements or (F) result in any officer or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any Representatives thereof, incurring personal liability with respect to any matters relating to the Debt Financing; and (ii) no action, liability or obligation (including any obligation to pay any commitment or other fees or reimburse any expenses) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives under any certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument relating to the Debt Financing (other than a customary authorization letter) shall be effective until (or that is not contingent upon) the Effective Time. Parent and its Subsidiaries and the Financing Sources may reasonably use logos of the Company solely in connection with the Debt Financing; provided, that such logos are used solely in conformance with the Company’s trademark usage guidelines and in a manner that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

The Company shall obtain and deliver to Parent at or prior to the Effective Time (or, at the option of Parent, at a later date) the resignation of each officer and director of each of the Acquired Corporations, effective as of the Effective Time (it being understood that such resignation shall not constitute a voluntary termination of employment under any Employment Agreement or Employee Benefit Plan applicable to such individual’s status as an officer or director of an Acquired Corporation).

SECTION 8 TERMINATION

8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Effective Time:

(a) by mutual written consent of Parent and the Company at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time;

(b) by Parent or the Company if the Offer (as may be extended in accordance with this Agreement) shall have expired as a result of the non-satisfaction of one or more Offer Conditions, without Purchaser having accepted for payment any Company Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer; provided, however, that a Party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) if such failure of the acceptance for payment of Company Shares or non-satisfaction of any such Offer Conditions is attributable to a failure on the part of such Party to perform in any material respect any covenant or obligation in this Agreement required to be performed by such Party at or prior to the Offer Acceptance Time and such Party has not cured such failure within ten (10) days after having received notice thereof from the other Party;

65

(c) by either Parent or the Company if a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity shall have issued an order, decree or ruling, or shall have taken any other action, having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the acceptance for payment of Company Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Merger or making consummation of the Offer or the Merger illegal, which order, decree, ruling or other action shall be final and nonappealable; provided, however, that a Party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if the issuance of such final and nonappealable order, decree, ruling or other action is attributable to a failure on the part of such Party to perform in any material respect any covenant or obligation in this Agreement required to be performed by such Party at or prior to the Effective Time;

(d) by Parent at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, if, whether or not permitted to do so: (i) the Company Board shall have failed to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Schedule 14D-9 when mailed, or shall have effected a Company Adverse Change Recommendation; (ii) the Company Board shall have failed to publicly reaffirm its recommendation of this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days after Parent so requests in writing, or, if earlier, two (2) Business Days prior to the Expiration Date, provided, that Parent may only make such request once every thirty (30) days unless the Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly disclosed; (iii) in the case of a tender offer or exchange offer subject to Regulation 14D under the Exchange Act (other than by Parent and its Affiliates), the Company Board fails to recommend, in a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9, rejection of such tender offer or exchange offer within ten (10) Business Days of the commencement of such tender offer or exchange offer, or, if earlier, two (2) Business Days prior to the Expiration Date; or (iv) the Company shall have knowingly and intentionally breached any of its obligations pursuant to Section 5.4 or Section 6.1 in any material respect;

(e) by either Parent or the Company if the Offer Acceptance Time shall not have occurred on or prior to the close of business on July 30, 2021 (such date, the “End Date”); provided, however, that a Party shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(e) if the failure of the Offer Acceptance Time to occur prior to the End Date is attributable to the failure on the part of such Party to perform in any material respect any covenant or obligation in this Agreement required to be performed by such Party;

(f) by the Company at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, in order to accept a Superior Proposal and, substantially concurrent with such termination, to enter into a binding written definitive acquisition agreement providing for the consummation of a transaction constituting a Superior Proposal (a “Specified Agreement”), provided, that the Company has complied in all material respects with the requirements of Section 5.4 and Section 6.1(b)(i) with respect to such Superior Proposal and pays the Termination Fee as provided in Section 8.3(a);

(g) by Parent at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, if a breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or failure to perform any covenant or obligation in this Agreement on the part of the Company shall have occurred such that the condition set forth in clause “(ii)”, “(iii)” or “(iv)” of Annex I would not be satisfied and cannot be cured by the Company by the End Date, or if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days of the date Parent gives the Company notice of such breach or failure to perform or, if earlier, the End Date; provided, however, that Parent shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(g) if either Parent or Purchaser is then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation hereunder;

66

(h) by the Company at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, if a breach in any material respects of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or failure to perform in any material respects any covenant or obligation in this Agreement on the part of Parent or Purchaser shall have occurred, in each case if such breach or failure has had or would reasonably be expected to prevent Parent or Purchaser from consummating the Transactions and such breach or failure cannot be satisfied and cannot be cured by Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, by the End Date, or if capable of being cured, shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days of the date the Company gives Parent notice of such breach or failure to perform, or, if earlier, the End Date; provided, however, that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(h) if the Company is then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation hereunder; or

(i) by the Company if Purchaser shall have failed to commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) the Offer within the period specified in Section 1.1(a) or if Purchaser shall have within four (4) Business Days following the Expiration Date failed to accept and pay for all Company Shares validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) as of the expiration of the Offer (as may be extended) and as of the Expiration Date all of the Offer Conditions have been satisfied or waived; provided, however, that the Company shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(i) if a breach by the Company of any covenant or obligation under this Agreement is the proximate cause of Purchaser failure to commence the Offer within the specified period or consummate the Offer, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

8.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, written notice thereof shall be given to the other Party or Parties, specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect and there shall be no liability on the part of Parent, Purchaser or the Company or their respective Representatives, stockholders and Affiliates following any such termination; provided, however, that (a) this Section 8.2, Section 8.3 and Section 9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect, (b) the Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, and (c) subject to Section 8.3 hereof, the termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any Party from any liability for common law fraud or Willful Breach.

8.3 Termination Fee.

(a) In the event that:

(i) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(f);

(ii) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(d); or

67

(iii) (x) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(b), Section 8.1(e) or Section 8.1(g), (y) any Person shall have publicly disclosed an Acquisition Proposal or otherwise communicated an Acquisition Proposal to the Company Board after the Agreement Date and prior to such termination (unless withdrawn at least two (2) Business Days prior to such termination) and (z) within twelve (12) months of such termination the Company shall have (A) entered into a definitive agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal and such Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated or (B) consummated any Acquisition Proposal (provided, that for purposes of this clause (z) the references to “20%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”);

then, in any such event under clause “(i),” “(ii)” or “(iii)” of this Section 8.3(a), the Company shall pay to Parent or its designee the Termination Fee by wire transfer of same day funds (x) in the case of Section 8.3(a)(i), concurrently with the termination of this Agreement and execution of the Specified Agreement (or if the Specified Agreement is executed on a day that is not a business day, the next business day), (y) in the case of Section 8.3(a)(ii), within two (2) Business Days after such termination or (z) in the case of Section 8.3(a)(iii), concurrently with the consummation of the applicable Acquisition Proposal referred to in subclause (iii)(z) above; it being understood that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion. As used herein, “Termination Fee” shall mean a cash amount equal to $107,000,000. In the event that Parent or its designee shall receive full payment pursuant to this Section 8.3(a), the receipt of the Termination Fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by Parent, Purchaser, any of their respective Affiliates (collectively, “Parent Related Parties”) or any other Person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the Transactions (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, and none of Parent, Purchaser, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person shall be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding against the Company or any of its Affiliates arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the Transactions or any matters forming the basis for such termination; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.3(a), shall limit the rights of Parent or Purchaser under Section 9.5(b) or Section 8.2.

(b) Except as set forth in Section 8.2, Parent’s right to receive payment from the Company of the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.3(a) and any payments pursuant to Section 8.3(c) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent Related Parties against the Acquired Corporations and any of their former, current or future officers, directors, partners, stockholders, optionholders, managers, members or Affiliates (collectively, “Company Related Parties”) for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the Offer or the Merger to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and upon payment of such amount(s), none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

(c) The Parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the Transactions and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if the Company fails to timely pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.3, and, in order to obtain the payment, Parent commences a Legal Proceeding which results in a judgment against the Company, the Company shall pay Parent its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on such amount at the prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received.

9.1 Amendment.

9.2 Waiver. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any Party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. No Party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

9.3 No Survival of Representations and Warranties and Covenants. None of the representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, the Company Disclosure Letter or in any certificate or schedule or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Merger, except for those covenants that by their terms survive the Effective Time, and this Section 9 and any applicable defined terms in Exhibit A shall survive the Effective Time.

9.4 Entire Agreement; Counterparts. This Agreement, the Tender Agreement and the other agreements and schedules referred to herein constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the Parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded and shall remain in full force and effect; and provided, further, that, if the Effective Time occurs, the Confidentiality Agreement shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by PDF shall be sufficient to bind the Parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

9.5 Applicable Laws; Jurisdiction; Specific Performance; Remedies.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of Laws thereof. Subject to Section 9.5(c), in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any of the Transactions; provided, however, that all disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to the Debt Financing or

69

involving the Financing Sources shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the laws of any other jurisdiction that might be applied because of the conflicts of laws principles of the State of New York: (i) each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom or, if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the United States District Court sitting in New Castle County in the State of Delaware, (it being agreed that the consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 9.5(a) shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the Parties); and (ii) each of the Parties irrevocably consents to service of process by first class certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the address at which such Party is to receive notice in accordance with Section 9.8. The Parties agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Laws; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any Party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, such final trial court judgment.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy will occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Subject to the following sentence, the Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) each Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the courts described in Section 9.5(a) without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, (ii) the provisions set forth in Section 8.3 (A) are not intended to and do not adequately compensate for the harm that would result from a breach of this Agreement and (B) shall not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any Party’s right to specific enforcement and (iii) the right of specific performance is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, neither the Company nor Parent would have entered into this Agreement. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9.5(b) shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

(c) EACH OF THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER THE LAW ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER, THE PARENT CREDIT FACILITY OR THE PERFORMANCE THEREOF.

The undersigned, a natural person (the “Sole Incorporator”), for the purpose of organizing a corporation to conduct the business and promote the purposes hereinafter stated, under the provisions and subject to the requirements of the laws of the State of Delaware hereby certifies that:

FIRST: The name of the “Corporation” is:

Viela Bio, Inc.

SECOND: The address of its registered office in the State of Delaware is 251 Little Falls Drive, City of Wilmington, 19808. The name of its registered agent at such address is Corporation Service Company.

THIRD: The nature of the business or purposes to be conducted or promoted is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware (the “DGCL”).

FOURTH: The Corporation is authorized to issue one class of stock, to be designated “Common Stock”, with a par value of $0.001 per share. The total number of shares of Common Stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is one thousand (1,000).

FIFTH: The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors (the “Board”). In addition to the powers and authority expressly conferred upon them by statute or by this Certificate of Incorporation or the bylaws of the Corporation (the “Bylaws”), the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation. Election of directors need not be by written ballot, unless the Bylaws so provide.

SIXTH: The Board is authorized to make, adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws. The stockholders shall also have power to make, adopt, amend, alter or repeal the Bylaws.

SEVENTH:

A. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or an officer of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, or trustee of another corporation, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (hereinafter an “Indemnitee”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer or trustee or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer or trustee, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by the

B-1

DGCL, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee in connection therewith; provided, however, that, except as provided in Paragraph C of this Article SEVENTH with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or an advancement of expenses or as otherwise required by law, the Corporation shall not be required to indemnify or advance expenses to any such Indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.

B. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred in Paragraph A of this Article SEVENTH, an Indemnitee shall also have the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses (including attorney’s fees) incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that, if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such Indemnitee, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such Indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Paragraph B or otherwise.

C. If a claim under Paragraph A or B of this Article SEVENTH is not paid in full by the Corporation within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be twenty (20) days, the Indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid the expenses of prosecuting or defending such suit. In (i) any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that, and (ii) in any suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that, the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the Indemnitee, be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article SEVENTH or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

B-2

D. The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in this Article SEVENTH shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

E. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

F. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article SEVENTH with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.

G. The rights conferred upon Indemnitees in this Article SEVENTH shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators. Any amendment, alteration or repeal of this Article SEVENTH that adversely affects any right of an Indemnitee or its successors shall be prospective only and shall not limit, eliminate or impair any such right with respect to any proceeding involving any occurrence or alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that took place prior to any such amendment, alteration or repeal.

H. If any word, clause, provision or provisions of this Article SEVENTH shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Article SEVENTH (including, without limitation, each portion of any Paragraph of this Article SEVENTH containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (ii) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Article SEVENTH (including, without limitation, each such portion of any Paragraph of this Article SEVENTH containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

EIGHTH: No director shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for any monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty as a director; provided that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director, to the extent that such liability is imposed by applicable law, (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders; (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) under Section 174 or successor provisions of the DGCL; or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. No amendment to or repeal of this provision shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of

B-3

any director for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal. If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.
