In determining the number of vested Option Shares at the time of any exercise,
the number of Option Shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole ADS or
the nearest increment of 13 Ordinary Shares.

Once exercisable, this Share Option shall continue to be exercisable at any time
or times prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date, subject to the
provisions hereof and of the Plan.

2.         Manner of Exercise.

(a)       The Optionee may exercise this Share Option only in the following
manner:  from time to time on or prior to the Expiration Date of this Share
Option, the Optionee may give written notice to the Administrator of Optionee’s
election to purchase some or all of the Option Shares purchasable at the time of
such notice.  This notice shall specify the number of Option Shares to be
purchased.

Payment of the purchase price for the Option Shares may be made by one or more
of the following methods:  (i) in cash, by certified or bank check or other
instrument acceptable to the Administrator; (ii) through the delivery (or
attestation to the ownership) of Ordinary Shares that have been purchased by the

otherwise satisfy any holding periods as may be required by the Administrator;
(iii) by the Optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise
notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to
the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company to pay the
option purchase price, provided that in the event the Optionee chooses to pay
the option purchase price as so provided, the Optionee and the broker shall
comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and
other agreements as the Administrator shall prescribe as a condition of such
payment procedure; (iv) if permitted by the Administrator, by a “net exercise”
arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of Ordinary
Shares issuable upon exercise by the largest whole number of Ordinary Shares
with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price; or
(v) a combination of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.  Payment instruments will
be received subject to collection.

agent of the Option Shares will be contingent upon (i) the Company’s receipt

Shares to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of Share Options under the Plan

applicable laws and regulations.  In the event the Optionee chooses to pay the
purchase price by previously-owned Ordinary Shares through the attestation
method, the number of Ordinary Shares transferred to the Optionee upon the
exercise of the Share Option shall be net of the Ordinary Shares attested to.

(b)       The Ordinary Shares purchased upon exercise of this Share Option shall
be transferred to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer
agent upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Administrator with all
requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such
transfer and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan.  The determination of
the Administrator as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the
Optionee.  The Optionee shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any
of the rights of a holder with respect to, any Ordinary Shares subject to this
Share Option unless and until this Share Option shall have been exercised
pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company or the transfer agent shall have
transferred the Ordinary Shares to the Optionee, and the Optionee’s name shall
have been entered as the shareholder of record on the books of the
Company.  Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full voting, dividend and other
ownership rights with respect to such Ordinary Shares.

Option may be exercised at any one time shall be 104 Ordinary Shares and shall
be exercised in increments of 13 Ordinary Shares, unless the number of Ordinary
Shares with respect to which this Share Option is being exercised is the total
number of Ordinary Shares subject to exercise under this Share Option at the
time.

(d)       Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Plan, no portion
of this Share Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date.

3.         Termination as Consultant. If the Optionee ceases to be a Consultant
to the Company or a Subsidiary for any reason, any portion of this Share Option
outstanding on such date may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date
the Optionee ceased to provide services, for a period of three months after the
date the Optionee ceased to provide services or until the Expiration Date, if
earlier.  Any portion of this Share Option that is not exercisable on the date
the Optionee ceases to be a Consultant  to the Company or a Subsidiary shall
terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.

4.         Incorporation of Plan.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, this Share Option shall be subject to and governed by all the terms
and conditions of the Plan, including the powers of the Administrator set forth
in Section 2(b) of the Plan.

non-assignable and is not transferable in any manner, by operation of law or
otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  This
Share Option is exercisable, during the Optionee’s lifetime, only by the
Optionee, and thereafter, only by the Optionee’s legal representative or
legatee.

Provider.  Neither the Plan nor this Share Option confers upon the Optionee any
rights with respect to continuance as a Consultant or other service provider to
the Company or a Subsidiary. 

7.         Integration.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between
the parties with respect to this Share Option and supersedes all prior
agreements and discussions between the parties concerning such subject matter.

8.         Data Privacy Consent.  In order to administer the Plan and this
Agreement and to implement or structure future equity grants, the Company, its
subsidiaries and affiliates and agents (together, the “Relevant Companies”) may
process any and all personal or professional data, including but not limited to
Social Security or other identification number, home address and telephone
number, date of birth and other information that is necessary or desirable for

Relevant Information; (ii) waives any privacy rights the Optionee may have with
respect to the Relevant Information; (iii) authorizes the Relevant Companies to
store and transmit such information in electronic form; and (iv) authorizes the
transfer of the Relevant Information to any jurisdiction in which the Relevant
Companies consider appropriate.  The Optionee shall have access to, and the
right to change, the Relevant Information.  Relevant Information will only be

shall be transferred to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the
transfer agent upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Administrator with all
requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such
transfer and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan.  The determination of
the Administrator as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the
Optionee.  The Optionee shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any
of the rights of a holder with respect to, any Ordinary Shares subject to this
Share Option unless and until this Share Option shall have been exercised
pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company or the transfer agent shall have
transferred the Ordinary Shares to the Optionee, and the Optionee’s name shall

Company.  Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full voting, dividend and other
ownership rights with respect to such Ordinary Shares.

(c)         The minimum number of Ordinary Shares with respect to which this
Share Option may be exercised at any one time shall be 104 Ordinary Shares and
shall be exercised in increments of 13 Ordinary Shares, unless the number of

the total number of Ordinary Shares subject to exercise under this Share Option
at the time.

(d)         Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Plan, no
portion of this Share Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date.

3.         Termination as Director. If the Optionee ceases to be a Director of
the Company, the period within which to exercise the Share Option may be subject
to earlier termination as set forth below.

(a)         Termination Due to Death.  If the Optionee’s service as a Director
terminates by reason of the Optionee’s death, any portion of this Share Option
outstanding on such date, to the extent exercisable on the date of death, may be
exercised by the Optionee’s legal representative or legatee for a period of 12
months after the date of death or until the Expiration Date, if earlier.  Any
portion of this Share Option that is not exercisable on the date of death shall
terminate immediately and be of no further force or effect.

(b)         Other Termination.  If the Optionee ceases to be a Director for any
reason other than the Optionee’s death, any portion of this Share Option
outstanding on such date may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date
the Optionee ceased to be a Director, for a period of six months after the date
the Optionee ceased to be a Director or until the Expiration Date, if
earlier.  Any portion of this Share Option that is not exercisable on the date
the Optionee ceases to be a Director shall terminate immediately and be of no
further force or effect.

4.         Incorporation of Plan.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, this Share Option shall be subject to and governed by all the terms
and conditions of the Plan, including the powers of the Administrator set forth

5.         Transferability.  This Agreement is personal to the Optionee, is

otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  This
Share Option is exercisable, during the Optionee’s lifetime, only by the
Optionee, and thereafter, only by the Optionee’s legal representative or
legatee.

6.         No Right to Continue as a Director.  Neither the Plan nor this Share
Option confers upon the Optionee any rights with respect to continuance as a
member of the Board. 

7.         Integration.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between
the parties with respect to this Share Option and supersedes all prior
agreements and discussions between the parties concerning such subject matter.

Agreement and to implement or structure future equity grants, the Company, its
subsidiaries and affiliates and agents (together, the “Relevant Companies”) may

Social Security or other identification number, home address and telephone
number, date of birth and other information that is necessary or desirable for
the administration of the Plan and/or this Agreement (the “Relevant

Pursuant to the BeiGene, Ltd. 2016 Share Option and Incentive Plan as amended
through the date of grant (the “Plan”), BeiGene, Ltd., an exempted company
incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability, (the “Company”)
hereby grants to the Optionee named above an option (the “Share Option”) to
purchase on or prior to the Expiration Date specified above all or part of the
number of ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”)
of the Company specified above at the Option Exercise Price per Share specified
above subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan.  The
Ordinary Shares may be represented by American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), and
each ADS represents 13 Ordinary Shares.  References herein to the issuance of
Ordinary Shares shall also refer to the issuance of ADSs on the same basis of
one ADS for every 13 Ordinary Shares.  The Option Exercise Price per ADS shall
equal the Option Exercise Price per Share multiplied by 13.  This Share Option
is not intended to be an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Capitalized terms in this
Non-Qualified Share Option Agreement for Company Employees (this “Agreement”)
shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless defined differently herein.

1.         Exercisability Schedule.  No portion of this Share Option may be
exercised until such portion shall have become exercisable.  Except as set forth
below, and subject to the discretion of the Administrator (as described in
Section 2 of the Plan) to accelerate the following exercisability schedule, this
Share Option shall be exercisable with respect to the following number of Option
Shares on the dates indicated so long as Optionee has served continuously as an
employee of the Company or a Subsidiary on such dates:

In determining the number of vested Option Shares at the time of any exercise,
the number of Option Shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole ADS or
the nearest increment of 13 Ordinary Shares.

Once exercisable, this Share Option shall continue to be exercisable at any time
or times prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date, subject to the
provisions hereof and of the Plan.

2.         Manner of Exercise.

(a)        The Optionee may exercise this Share Option only in the following
manner: from time to time on or prior to the Expiration Date of this Share
Option, the Optionee may give written notice to the Administrator of Optionee’s
election to purchase some or all of the Option Shares purchasable at the time of
such notice.  This notice shall specify the number of Option Shares to be
purchased.

Payment of the purchase price for the Option Shares may be made by one or more
of the following methods: (i) in cash, by certified or bank check or other
instrument acceptable to the Administrator; (ii) through the delivery (or
attestation to the ownership) of Ordinary Shares that have been purchased by the
Optionee on the open market or that are beneficially owned by the Optionee and
are not then subject to any restrictions under any Company plan and that
otherwise satisfy any holding periods as may be required by the Administrator;
(iii) by the Optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise
notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to
the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company to pay the
option purchase price, provided that in the event the Optionee chooses to pay
the option purchase price as so provided, the Optionee and the broker shall
comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and
other agreements as the Administrator shall prescribe as a condition of such
payment procedure; (iv) if permitted by the Administrator, by a “net exercise”
arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of Ordinary
Shares issuable upon exercise by the largest whole number of Ordinary Shares
with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price; or
(v) a combination of (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.  Payment instruments will
be received subject to collection.

The transfer to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the transfer
agent of the Option Shares will be contingent upon (i) the Company’s receipt
from the Optionee of the full purchase price for the Option Shares, as set forth
above, (ii) the fulfillment of any other requirements contained herein or in the
Plan or in any other agreement or provision of law, and

2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(iii) the receipt by the Company of any agreement, statement or other evidence
that the Company may require to satisfy itself that the issuance of Ordinary
Shares to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of Share Options under the Plan
and any subsequent resale of the Ordinary Shares will be in compliance with
applicable laws and regulations.  In the event the Optionee chooses to pay the
purchase price by previously-owned Ordinary Shares through the attestation
method, the number of Ordinary Shares transferred to the Optionee upon the
exercise of the Share Option shall be net of the Ordinary Shares attested to.

(b)        The Ordinary Shares purchased upon exercise of this Share Option
shall be transferred to the Optionee on the records of the Company or of the
transfer agent upon compliance to the satisfaction of the Administrator with all
requirements under applicable laws or regulations in connection with such
transfer and with the requirements hereof and of the Plan.  The determination of
the Administrator as to such compliance shall be final and binding on the
Optionee.  The Optionee shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any
of the rights of a holder with respect to, any Ordinary Shares subject to this
Share Option unless and until this Share Option shall have been exercised
pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company or the transfer agent shall have
transferred the Ordinary Shares to the Optionee, and the Optionee’s name shall
have been entered as the shareholder of record on the books of the
Company.  Thereupon, the Optionee shall have full voting, dividend and other
ownership rights with respect to such Ordinary Shares.

(c)        The minimum number of Ordinary Shares with respect to which this
Share Option may be exercised at any one time shall be 104 Ordinary Shares and
shall be exercised in increments of 13 Ordinary Shares, unless the number of
Ordinary Shares with respect to which this Share Option is being exercised is
the total number of Ordinary Shares subject to exercise under this Share Option
at the time.

(d)        Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Plan, no portion
of this Share Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date.

3.         Termination of Employment.  If the Optionee’s employment by the
Company or a Subsidiary is terminated, the period within which to exercise the
Share Option may be subject to earlier termination as set forth below.

(a)        Termination Due to Death.  If the Optionee’s employment terminates by
reason of the Optionee’s death, any portion of this Share Option outstanding on
such date, to the extent exercisable on the date of death, may be exercised by
the Optionee’s legal representative or legatee for a period of 12 months after
the date of death or until the Expiration Date, if earlier.  Any portion of this
Share Option that is not exercisable on the date of death shall terminate
immediately and be of no further force or effect.

(b)        Termination Due to Disability.  If the Optionee’s employment
terminates by reason of the Optionee’s disability (as determined by the
Administrator), any portion of this Share Option outstanding on such date, to
the extent exercisable on the date of such termination of employment, may be
exercised by the Optionee for a period of 12 months after the date of disability
or until the Expiration Date, if earlier.  Any portion of this Share Option that
is not

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

exercisable on the date of disability shall terminate immediately and be of no
further force or effect.

(c)        Termination for Cause.  If the Optionee’s employment terminates for
Cause, any portion of this Share Option outstanding on such date shall terminate
immediately and be of no further force and effect.  For purposes hereof, “Cause”
shall mean, unless otherwise provided in an employment agreement between the
Company and the Optionee, a determination by the Administrator that the Optionee
shall be dismissed as a result of (i) any material breach by the Optionee of any
agreement between the Optionee and the Company; (ii) the conviction of,
indictment for or plea of nolo contendere by the Optionee to a felony or a crime
involving moral turpitude; or (iii) any material misconduct or willful and
deliberate non-performance (other than by reason of disability) by the Optionee
of the Optionee’s duties to the Company.

(d)        Other Termination.  If the Optionee’s employment terminates for any
reason other than the Optionee’s death, the Optionee’s disability or Cause, and
unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, any portion of this Share
Option outstanding on such date may be exercised, to the extent exercisable on
the date of termination, for a period of three months after the date of
termination or until the Expiration Date, if earlier.  Any portion of this Share
Option that is not exercisable on the date of termination shall terminate
immediately and be of no further force or effect.

The Administrator’s determination of the reason for termination of the
Optionee’s employment shall be conclusive and binding on the Optionee and
Optionee’s representatives or legatees.

4.         Incorporation of Plan.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, this Share Option shall be subject to and governed by all the terms
and conditions of the Plan, including the powers of the Administrator set forth
in Section 2(b) of the Plan.

5.         Transferability.  This Agreement is personal to the Optionee, is
non-assignable and is not transferable in any manner, by operation of law or
otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  This
Share Option is exercisable, during the Optionee’s lifetime, only by the
Optionee, and thereafter, only by the Optionee’s legal representative or
legatee.

6.         Tax Withholding.  The Optionee shall, not later than the date as of
which the exercise of this Share Option becomes a taxable event for any
applicable income, employment or other tax purposes, pay to the Company or any
Subsidiary or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of
any taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such taxable event.  The
Company shall have the authority to cause the minimum required tax withholding
obligation to be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from Ordinary
Shares to be issued to the Optionee a number of Ordinary Shares with an
aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the minimum withholding amount
due.

7.         No Obligation to Continue Employment.  Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is obligated by or as a result of the Plan or this Agreement to
continue the Optionee in

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

employment and neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall interfere in any way
with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of
the Optionee at any time.

8.         Integration.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between
the parties with respect to this Share Option and supersedes all prior
agreements and discussions between the parties concerning such subject matter.

9.         Data Privacy Consent.  In order to administer the Plan and this
Agreement and to implement or structure future equity grants, the Company, its
subsidiaries and affiliates and agents (together, the “Relevant Companies”) may
process any and all personal or professional data, including but not limited to
Social Security or other identification number, home address and telephone
number, date of birth and other information that is necessary or desirable for
the administration of the Plan and/or this Agreement (the “Relevant
Information”).  By entering into this Agreement, the Optionee (i) authorizes the
Company to collect, process, register and transfer to the Relevant Companies all
Relevant Information; (ii) waives any privacy rights the Optionee may have with
respect to the Relevant Information; (iii) authorizes the Relevant Companies to
store and transmit such information in electronic form; and (iv) authorizes the
transfer of the Relevant Information to any jurisdiction in which the Relevant
Companies consider appropriate.  The Optionee shall have access to, and the
right to change, the Relevant Information.  Relevant Information will only be
used in accordance with applicable law.

10.       Notices.  Notices hereunder shall be mailed or delivered to the
Company at its principal place of business and shall be mailed or delivered to
the Optionee at the address on file
