1.EMPLOYMENT BY THE COMPANY.

1.1    Position; Duties. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Executive shall hold the position of General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, in which position the Executive shall be an officer of the Company for purposes of Section 16(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Executive will report to, and be subject to the direction of, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The Executive shall devote the Executive’s full business energies, interest, abilities and productive time to the proper and efficient performance of the Executive’s duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Executive may devote reasonable periods of time to (a) serving on the board of directors of other corporations subject to the prior approval of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), and (b) engaging in charitable or community service activities, so long as none of the foregoing additional activities materially interfere with the Executive’s duties under this Agreement.

1.2    Relationship With Parent. It is understood and agreed that the Executive’s duties may include providing services to or for the benefit of the Company’s affiliates, including, but not limited to, Myovant Sciences Ltd. (the “Parent”), provided that the Executive agrees that he will not provide any services from within the United States for the Parent or any affiliate of the Parent that is organized in a jurisdiction outside the United States. In addition, the Executive shall be deemed an officer or executive officer of the Parent, if at all, solely for purposes of the requirements applicable to the Parent as a registrant with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Executive will not become an employee of the Parent, and the Executive’s activities as an officer or executive officer of the Parent shall be strictly ministerial and shall not involve conducting any of the Parent’s business activities from within the United States, including day-to-day management or other operational activities of the Parent.

1.3    Location of Employment. The Executive shall work primarily from the Company’s principal base of operations, which is currently in California. The Executive understands that his duties may require periodic business travel.

1.4    Policies and Procedures. The employment relationship between the parties shall be governed by this Agreement and by the policies and practices established by the Company and/or the Board. In the event that the terms of this Agreement differ from or are in conflict with the Company’s policies or practices, this Agreement shall govern and control.

1.5    Exclusive Employment; Agreement not to Participate in Company’s Competitors. Subject to Sections 1.1 and 1.2 above, except with the prior written consent of the Board, the Executive will not during his employment with the Company undertake or engage in any other employment, occupation or business enterprise. During the Executive’s employment, the Executive agrees not to acquire, assume or participate in, directly or indirectly, any position, investment or interest known by the Executive to be adverse or antagonistic to the Company, its business or its prospects, financial or otherwise, or in any company, person or entity that is, directly or indirectly, in competition with the business of the Company. Ownership by the Executive of professionally managed funds over which the Executive does not have control or discretion in investment decisions or an investment representing less than two percent (2%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock of any corporation with one or more classes of its capital stock listed or publicly traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market shall not constitute a breach of this Section.

1.6    Start Date. The Executive’s employment with the Company is commencing as of the date of this Agreement (the “Start Date”).

2.    AT-WILL EMPLOYMENT.

The Executive’s employment relationship with the Company is, and shall at all times remain, at-will. This means that either the Executive or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any reason or for no reason, with or without Cause (as defined below) or advance notice; provided, however, however, the Executive must provide the Company at least sixty (60) days’ advance written notice of the Executive’s intention to resign from employment (except for a resignation for Good Reason, in which case such procedure shall be governed by the terms set forth in the definition of Good Reason) and the Company shall provide the Executive sixty (60) days’ advance written notice in the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause.

3.    COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS.

3.1    Salary. The Company shall pay the Executive a base salary at the annualized rate of $367,000 (the “Base Salary”), less payroll deductions and all required withholdings, payable in regular periodic payments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices. The Base Salary shall be prorated for any partial year of employment on the basis of a 365-day year. The Base Salary shall be subject to periodic review and may be increased from time to time in the Board’s discretion.

3.2    Sign-on Bonus. Within thirty (30) days after the Start Date, the Company shall pay the Executive a sign-on bonus in a lump sum payment of $100,000, together with a tax gross-up payment representing additional compensation in an amount intended to offset, on an after-tax basis, the Executive’s income taxes payable in respect of such bonus (collectively, the “Sign-on Bonus”). Should the Executive’s employment terminate for any reason, voluntarily or involuntarily, prior to the first anniversary of the Start Date, the Executive shall be required to repay the Sign-on Bonus.

3.3    Annual Performance Bonus. Each fiscal year, the Executive will be eligible to earn an annual discretionary cash bonus (the “Annual Performance Bonus”) with a target equal to 45% of the Executive’s Base Salary, based on the Board’s assessment of the Executive’s individual performance and overall Company performance. In order to earn and receive the Annual Performance Bonus, the Executive must remain employed by the Company through and including the last day of the fiscal year to which the Performance Bonus relates. The Annual Performance Bonus, if any, will be paid no later than thirty (30) days following the end of that fiscal year. The Company’s fiscal year currently ends on March 31^st. The Annual Performance Bonus payable, if any, shall be prorated for the initial year of employment (on the basis of a 365-day year) or prorated if the Company’s review or assessment of the Executive’s performance covers a period that is less than a full fiscal year. The determination of whether the Executive has earned a bonus and the amount thereof shall be determined by the Board or a committee thereof in its sole discretion. The Board or a committee thereof reserves the right to modify the bonus criteria from year to year. Within thirty (30) days following a Change of Control (as defined below), the Company shall pay to the Executive a prorated bonus (based on the higher of target or actual achievement of pro rata performance targets for the number of days that have elapsed in such fiscal year as of the Change of Control) and with the bonus amount to be the prorated portion of a full annual bonus based on the number of days that have elapsed in such fiscal year as of the Change of Control.

3.4    Equity.

(a)    Subject to the terms of the Parent’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and approval of the grant by the Parent’s board of directors (the “Parent Board”) or a committee thereof, the Executive will be granted an option to purchase up to 310,000 shares of the Parent’s Common Stock (the “Initial Option”). The Initial Option shall: (i) have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Parent’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the grant date; (ii) be subject to a four (4)-year vesting period, with 25% of the Initial Option shares vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and quarterly vesting thereafter, as well as any other terms contained in the grant agreements; and (iii) expire and cease to be exercisable on the ten (10)-year anniversary of the grant date. Under the Company’s current grant date policy, option grants are effective on the 15^th (or next business day) of the month next following the later of the date of approval of the option grant or the optionee’s commencement of employment. The Initial Option will be governed by the Plan and other documents issued in connection with the grant.

(b)    In addition, the Executive will be eligible to receive additional discretionary annual equity incentive grants that will vest over a four (4)-year vesting period in amounts commensurate with the Executive’s position as General Counsel and Corporate Secretary (the “Annual Equity Grants”). The Annual Equity Grants will be based upon meeting Company performance metrics to be mutually agreed upon in writing annually.

3.5    Benefits and Insurance. The Executive shall, in accordance with Company policy and the terms of the applicable plan documents, be eligible to participate in benefits under any benefit plan or arrangement that may be in effect from time to time and made available to similarly situated Company executives (including, but not limited to, being named as an officer for purposes of the Company’s Directors & Officers insurance policy). In particular, the Executive shall be entitled to vacation each year, in addition to sick leave and observed holidays, in accordance with the policies and practices of the Company. Vacation may be taken at such times and intervals as the Executive shall determine, subject to the business needs of the Company. The Company reserves the right to modify, add or eliminate benefits from time to time.

3.6    Expense Reimbursements. The Company will reimburse the Executive for all reasonable business expenses that the Executive incurs in conducting his duties hereunder, pursuant to the Company’s usual expense reimbursement policies. Reimbursement will be made as soon as practicable following receipt from the Executive of reasonable documentation supporting said expenses.

4.    PROPRIETARY INFORMATION OBLIGATIONS.

As a condition of employment, the Executive agrees to execute and abide by the Company’s Employee Non-Disclosure and Inventions Assignment Agreement (“NDA”).

5.    TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

5.1    Termination Without Cause Or Resignation For Good Reason.

If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated without Cause or the Executive resigns for Good Reason, then the Company shall pay the Executive any earned but unpaid Base Salary accrued through the date of termination, at the rates then in effect, less standard deductions and withholdings. In addition, if the Executive furnishes to the Company an executed waiver and release of claims in a form to be provided by the Company, which may include an obligation for the Executive to provide reasonable transition assistance (the “Release”) that is nonrevocable prior to the Release Date, and if the Executive allows the Release to become effective in accordance with its terms, then the Executive shall receive the following benefits:

(a)    The Company shall pay the Executive an amount equal to one times (1x) the sum of (i) the Executive’s then current Base Salary (determined prior to any reduction in Base Salary that otherwise constitutes Good Reason, if applicable) and (ii) the Executive’s Annual Performance Bonus (as determined under Section 3.3 above, and prior to any reduction in such annual target bonus opportunity that otherwise constitutes Good Reason, if applicable) in respect of the fiscal year in which the termination of employment occurs, at target level. Said amount shall be paid to the Executive in a single lump sum within ten (10) days following the Release Date and will be subject to required withholding;

(b)    If the Executive is eligible for and timely elects COBRA continuation coverage, the Company will reimburse COBRA premiums for the first twelve (12) months of COBRA coverage; provided, however, that if the Executive ceases to be eligible for COBRA or becomes eligible to enroll in the group health insurance plan of another employer, the Executive will immediately notify the Company and the Company’s obligation to provide the COBRA premium benefits shall immediately cease. Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot provide the COBRA premium benefits without potentially incurring financial costs or penalties under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then in lieu of paying COBRA premiums on the Executive’s behalf, the Company will pay the Executive on a monthly basis a fully taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA premium for that month, subject to applicable tax withholding. This payment may be, but need not be, used by Executive to pay for COBRA premiums; and

(c)    The Executive shall be eligible to become fully vested in 25% of the Executive’s then unvested and outstanding equity awards, including the Executive’s then remaining unvested portion of the Initial Option and any Annual Equity Grants or other equity grants awarded.

5.2    Other Termination. If the Executive resigns his employment at any time without Good Reason or the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company at any time for Cause or due to death or Disability, the Company shall pay the Executive (or his estate) any Base Salary accrued through the date of such resignation or termination, and (other than upon a termination for Cause) any annual bonus that is due in respect of the prior fiscal year but is unpaid as of the date of termination, at the rates then in effect, less standard deductions and withholdings. In addition, in the event of a termination due to death or Disability, the Executive (or his estate) will be paid an amount equal to the Executive’s target bonus amount for the year in which such resignation or termination occurs prorated to the date of such resignation or termination. The Company shall thereafter have no further obligations to the Executive, except as may otherwise be required by law.

5.3     Change of Control. If a Change of Control occurs during the Executive’s employment or within three (3) months after the termination of such employment (other than termination by the Company for Cause or due to death or Disability), then the Executive shall become fully vested in 100% of the Executive’s then unvested and outstanding equity awards, including the Executive’s then remaining unvested portion of the Initial Option, the Annual Equity Grants and other equity grants awarded. In addition, if the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated without Cause or the Executive resigns for Good Reason within three (3) months before or eighteen (18) months after a Change of Control, then the reference to “one times (1x)” in Section 5.1(a) shall be changed to “one and one-half times (1.5x)” and the reference to “twelve (12) months” in Section 5.1(b) shall be changed to “eighteen (18) months.”

5.7    Section 409A Compliance.

(a)    It is intended that any benefits under this Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”), provided under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A-1(b)(4), and 1.409A-1(b)(9), and this Agreement will be construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions, and to the extent not so exempt, this Agreement (and any definitions hereunder) will be construed in a manner that complies with Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A (including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)), Executive’s right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement (whether severance payments, if any, or otherwise) shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each installment payment hereunder shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment. A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “resignation,” “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean separation from service. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed by the Company at the time of a separation from service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), and if any payments or benefits that the Executive becomes entitled to under this Agreement on account of such separation from service are deemed to be “deferred compensation,” then to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of such payments or benefits is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the related adverse taxation under Section 409A, such payments shall not be provided prior to the earliest of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of separation from service, (ii) the date of Executive’s death or (iii) such earlier date as permitted under Section 409A without the imposition of adverse taxation. Upon the first business day following the expiration of such period, all payments deferred pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid in a lump sum, and any remaining payments due shall be paid as otherwise provided herein. No interest shall be due on any amounts so deferred.

(b)    With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of the Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Executive or any other person if any provisions of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A but do not satisfy an exemption from, or the conditions of, Code Section 409A.

5.8    Section 280G.

(a)    If any payment or benefit (including payments and benefits pursuant to this Agreement) that the Executive would receive in connection with a Change of Control or other transaction (the “Transaction”) from the Company or otherwise (“Transaction Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Company shall cause to be determined, before any amounts of the Transaction Payment are paid to the Executive, which of the following two alternative forms of payment would result in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Transaction Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Transaction Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax: (1) payment in full of the entire amount of the Transaction Payment (a “Full Payment”), or (2) payment of only a part of the Transaction Payment so that the Executive receives the largest payment possible without the imposition of the Excise Tax (a “Reduced Payment”). For purposes of determining whether to make a Full Payment or a Reduced Payment, the Company shall cause to be taken into account the value of all applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of such state and local taxes). If a Reduced Payment is made, (x) the Executive shall have no rights to any additional payments and/or benefits constituting the Transaction Payment, and (y) reduction in payments and/or benefits shall occur in the manner that results in the greatest economic benefit to the Executive as determined in this paragraph. If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the portions of the Transaction Payment shall be reduced pro rata.

(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that no stock of the Company is readily tradeable on an established securities market or otherwise (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) at the time of the Change of Control of the Company, the Company shall cause a vote of shareholders to be held to approve the portion of the Transaction Payments that equals or exceeds three times (3x) the Executive’s “base amount” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) (the “Excess Parachute Payments”) in accordance with Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, and the Executive shall cooperate with such vote of shareholders, including the execution of any required documentation subjecting the Executive’s entitlement to all Excess Parachute Payments to such shareholder vote. In the event that the Company does not cause a vote of shareholder to be held to approve all Excess Parachute Payments, the provisions set forth in Section 5.8(a) of this Agreement shall apply.

(c)    Unless the Executive and the Company otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this section shall be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this section, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Accountants shall provide detailed supporting calculations to the Company and the Executive as requested by the Company or the Executive. The Executive and the Company shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this section.

6.    ARBITRATION.

Except as otherwise set forth below in connection with equitable remedies, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Executive’s employment with the Company (collectively, “Disputes”), including, without limitation, any dispute, claim or controversy concerning the validity, enforceability, breach or termination of this Agreement, if not resolved by the parties, shall be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the then-prevailing Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS, as modified herein (“Rules”). The requirement to arbitrate covers all Disputes (other than disputes which by statute are not arbitrable) including, but not limited to, claims, demands or actions under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (including Older Workers Benefit Protection Act); Americans with Disabilities Act; Civil Rights Act of 1866; Civil Rights Act of 1991; Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; Equal Pay Act; Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; Fair Labor Standards Act; Fair Employment and Housing Act; any other provision of the California Labor, Government or Civil Code; IWC Wage Orders; and any other law, ordinance or regulation regarding discrimination or harassment or any terms or conditions of employment. There shall be one arbitrator who shall be jointly selected by the parties. If the parties have not jointly agreed upon an arbitrator within twenty (20) calendar days of respondent’s receipt of claimant’s notice of intention to arbitrate, either party may request JAMS to furnish the parties with a list of names from which the parties shall jointly select an arbitrator. If the parties have not agreed upon an arbitrator within ten (10) calendar days of the transmittal date of such list, then each party shall have an additional five (5) calendar days in which to strike any names objected to, number the remaining names in order of preference, and return the list to JAMS, which shall then select an arbitrator in accordance with the Rules. The place of arbitration shall be San Francisco, California. By agreeing to arbitration, the parties hereto do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue a pre-arbitral injunction, including, without limitation, with respect to the NDA. The arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. Judgment upon the award of the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Discovery shall be permitted in the arbitration as provided by Section 1283.05 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. The Company shall pay all administrative fees of JAMS in excess of $435 (a typical filing fee in court) and the arbitrator’s fees and expenses. Each party shall bear its or his own costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) in any such arbitration and the arbitrator shall have no power to award costs and attorney’s fees except as provided by statute or by separate written agreement between the parties. In the event any portion of this arbitration provision is found unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall become null and void leaving the remainder of this arbitration provision in full force and effect. The parties agree that all information regarding the arbitration, including any settlement thereof, shall not be disclosed by the parties hereto, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
