be deemed a termination without Cause. Upon any such termination of the Executive’s employment, all obligations of the Company
under this Agreement shall thereupon immediately terminate other than any obligations with respect to earned but unpaid Base Salary
and bonus under Section 4. In addition, subject to the Executive signing a general release of claims in a form and manner satisfactory
to the Company, including a mutual obligation of non-disparagement, and the lapse of any statutory revocation period, the Company

a reasonable time, not less than thirty (30) days, to conform its performance to its obligations hereunder. Upon any such termination

of Control and Termination Pursuant to a Change of Control. If there is a Change of Control, as defined below, during the
Term of Employment, the provisions of this Section 6(g) shall apply and shall continue to apply throughout the remainder of the
Term (as extended by any Renewal Term). Upon a Change of Control, the Executive will become fully vested in any outstanding stock
options, Restricted Stock or other stock grants awarded and become fully vested in all Company contributions made to the executive’s
401(k), Profit Sharing or other retirement account (s). In addition, within thirty (30) days of the Change of Control, the Company
shall pay to the Executive a lump sum equal to the Executive’s pro rata target cash bonus for the year in which the Change

If, within two (2) years following a Change

or by the Executive for “Good Reason” (as defined in Section 6(g)(ii) below), in lieu of any severance and other benefits
payable under Section 6(e) or Section 6(f), subject to the Executive signing a general release of claims in a form and manner
satisfactory to the Company including a mutual obligation of non-disparagement and the lapse of any statutory revocation period,
the Company shall pay to the Executive (or the Executive’s estate, if applicable) a lump sum amount equal to 1.5 times the
sum of (x) the Executive’s Base Salary at the rate then in effect pursuant to Section 4(a), plus (y) an amount equal to
the Executive’s target cash bonus for the year in which termination occurred (as such may be set forth in the company’s
cash bonus plan for such year assuming target achievement of Corporate or personal goals)) within thirty (30) days of the Date
of Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the cash severance payment to the Executive is considered deferred
compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, and if the Change of Control does not constitute a “change in control
event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, such cash severance shall be payable in installments over the same
period as provided in Section 6(e). The Company shall also pay 100% of the costs to provide up to twelve (12) months of outplacement
support services at a level appropriate for the Executive’s title and responsibility and provide the Executive with health
and dental insurance continuation at a level consistent with the level and type the Executive had in place at the time of termination
for a period of eighteen (18) months from the Date of Termination.


 


(i)          “Change
of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any one of the following events: (A) the sale of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company on a consolidated basis to an unrelated person or entity, (B) a merger, reorganization or consolidation
in which the outstanding shares of Stock are converted into or exchanged for securities of the successor entity and the holders
of the Company’s outstanding voting power immediately prior to such transaction do not own a majority of the outstanding
voting power of the successor entity immediately upon completion of such transaction, or (C) the sale of all of the Stock of the
Company to an unrelated person or entity.


 


(ii)         
“Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following:


 


(A)         a
material or diminution in the nature or scope of the powers, functions, titles, duties or responsibilities of the Executive that
is adverse to the Executive;


 


(B)         a
breach by the Company of any of its material obligations hereunder; or


 


(C)         the
relocation of the offices at which the Executive is principally employed as of the Change of Control to a location more than fifty
(50) miles from such offices, which relocation is not approved by the Executive.


 


The Executive shall provide the Company with
reasonable notice and an opportunity to cure any of the events listed in this Section 6(g)(ii) within sixty (60) days of the occurrence
of the event and shall not be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section 6(g) unless the Company fails to cure within a
reasonable period of not less than thirty (30) days.


 


(iii)        Additional
Limitation. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that the amount of any compensation,
payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, calculated in a manner consistent with Section 280G of the Code and the
applicable regulations thereunder (the “Severance Payments”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
4999 of the Code, the following provisions shall apply:


 




    	 	7	 



     


    

  


(A)         If
the Severance Payments, reduced by the sum of (1) the Excise Tax and (2) the total of the federal, state, and local income and
employment taxes payable by the Executive on the amount of the Severance Payments which are in excess of the Threshold Amount,
are greater than or equal to the Threshold Amount, the Executive shall be entitled to the full amount of Severance Payments.


 


(B)         If
the Threshold Amount is less than (x) the Severance Payments, but greater than (y) the Severance Payments reduced by the sum of
(1) the Excise Tax and (2) the total of the federal, state, and local income and employment taxes on the amount of the Severance
Payments which are in excess of the Threshold Amount, then the Severance Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the
extent necessary so that the sum of all Severance Payments shall not exceed the Threshold Amount. In such event, the Severance
Payments shall be reduced in the following order: (i) cash payments not subject to Section 409A of the Code; (ii) cash payments
subject to Section 409A of the Code; (iii) equity-based payments and acceleration; and (iv) non-cash forms of benefits. To the
extent any payment is to be made over time (e.g., in installments, etc.), then the payments shall be reduced in reverse chronological
order.


 


For the purposes of this Section 6(g)(iii),
“Threshold Amount” shall mean three (3) times the Executive’s “base amount” within the meaning of
Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder less one dollar ($1.00); and “Excise Tax”
shall mean the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, and any interest or penalties incurred by the Executive with respect
to such excise tax.


 


The determination as to which of the alternative
provisions of this Section 6(g)(iii) shall apply to the Executive shall be made by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected
by the Company (the “Accounting Firm”), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and
the Executive within fifteen (15) business days of the Date of Termination, if applicable, or at such earlier time as is reasonably
requested by the Company or the Executive. For purposes of determining which of the alternative provisions of this Section 6(g)(iii)
above shall apply, the Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation
applicable to individuals for the calendar year in which the determination is to be made, and state and local income taxes at
the highest marginal rates of individual taxation in the state and locality of the Executive’s residence on the Date of
Termination, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local
taxes. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive.


 


(h)          No
Mitigation. Without regard to the reason for the termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder, the Executive
shall be under no obligation to mitigate damages with respect to such termination under any circumstances and in the event the
Executive is employed or receives income from any other source, there shall be no offset against the amounts due from the Company
hereunder.

(i)          
Section 409A.


 


(i)          Anything
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at the time of the Executive’s separation from service within the
meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Company determines that the Executive is a “specified employee” within the
meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent any payment or benefit that the Executive becomes entitled
to under this Agreement would be considered deferred compensation subject to the 20 percent additional tax imposed pursuant to
Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such payment shall not be
payable and such benefit shall not be provided until the date that is the earlier of (A) six months and one day after the Executive’s
separation from service, or (B) the Executive’s death. If any such delayed cash payment is otherwise payable on an installment
basis, the first payment shall include a catch-up payment covering amounts that would otherwise have been paid during the six-month
period but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments shall be payable in accordance with their
original schedule. Any such delayed cash payment shall earn interest at an annual rate equal to the prime rate reported by The
Wall Street Journal as of the date of separation from service, from such date of separation from service until the payment.


 


(ii)         The
parties intend that this Agreement will be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision
of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner
so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A of the Code. The parties agree that this Agreement may be amended, as
reasonably requested by either party, and as may be necessary to fully comply with Section 409A of the Code and all related rules
and regulations in order to preserve the payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party.


 


(iii)        To
the extent that any payment or benefit described in this Agreement constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation”
under Section 409A of the Code, and to the extent that such payment or benefit is payable upon the Executive’s termination
of employment, then such payments or benefits shall be payable only upon the Executive’s “separation from service.”
The determination of whether and when a separation from service has occurred shall be made in accordance with the presumptions
set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h).


 


(iv)        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 Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an
exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.

7.            Non-Competition
and No Solicitation.


 


(a)          Because
the Executive’s services to the Company are special and because the Executive has access to the Company’s Confidential

the Executive shall not, without the express written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, engage, participate, invest

or consultant, or in any other capacity, any Person (as hereinafter defined) other than the Company and its affiliates in the
Designated Industry (as hereinafter defined); provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed as preventing the Employee
from making passive investments in a Person in the Designated Industry if the securities of such Person are publicly traded and
such investment constitutes less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock or comparable equity interests
of such Person.


 


(b)          For
purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings:

chemistry and biology services, the drug development and drug product manufacturing industries and any other business conducted
by OSOBio or the Company during the Executive’s employment with OSOBio and the Company. Because the Company’s business
is worldwide in scope, the Designated Industry includes such business activities in any location in the world.


 


(c)          For
a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement for any reason,
the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, alone or as a member of any partnership or limited liability company or entity,
or as an officer, director, shareholder, or employee of any corporation or entity, solicit, divert or take away, or attempt to
divert or take away, the business or patronage of any current or former client, customer or account of the Company; provided,

of the Company at any time during the Executive's employment with the Company.

a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement for any reason,

or independent contractor of the Company to terminate his/her relationship with the Company, or (b) recruit, hire or solicit for
employment or for engagement as an independent contractor, any person who is or was employed by the Company at any time during
the Executive’s employment with the Company. This sub-section shall not apply to persons whose employment and/or retention
with the Company has been terminated for a period of twenty-four (24) months or longer.

(e)          If
any restriction set forth in this Section 7 is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it extends
for too long a period of time or over too great a range of activities or in too broad a geographic area, it shall be rewritten
by the court to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities or geographic area as to which may be enforceable.


 


8.            Confidentiality.
In the course of performing services hereunder and otherwise, the Executive has had, and it is anticipated that the Executive
will from time to time have, access to confidential records, data, customer lists, trade secrets, technology and similar confidential
information owned or used in the course of business by the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates (the “Confidential
Information”). The Executive agrees (i) to hold the Confidential Information in strict confidence, (ii) not to disclose
the Confidential Information to any Person (other than in the regular business of the Company), and (iii) not to use, directly
or indirectly, any of the Confidential Information for any competitive or commercial purpose; provided, however, that the limitations
set forth above shall not apply to any Confidential Information which (A) is then generally known to the public, (B) became or
becomes generally known to the public through no fault of the Executive, or (C) is disclosed in accordance with an order of a
court of competent jurisdiction or applicable law. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, all
data, memoranda, customer lists, notes, programs and other papers and items, and reproductions thereof relating to the foregoing
matters in the Executive’s possession or control, shall be returned to the Company and remain in its possession. This Section
8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.


 


9.            Conflicting
Agreements. The Executive hereby represents and warrants that the execution of this Agreement and the performance of his obligations
hereunder will not (after giving effect to the termination of the Prior Agreement hereby on the Effective Date) breach or be in
conflict with any other agreement to which he is a party or is bound, and that he is not now subject to any covenants which would
affect the performance of his obligations hereunder. As of the Effective Date, the Executive is not performing any other duties
for, and is not a party to any similar agreement with, any Person competing with the Company or any of its affiliates.


 


10.          Severability.
In case any of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable
in any respect, any such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but
this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had been limited or modified (consistent
with its general intent) to the extent necessary to make it valid, legal and enforceable, or if it shall not be possible to so
limit or modify such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or part of a provision, this Agreement shall be construed as
if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or part of a provision had never been contained in this Agreement.

11.          Litigation
and Regulatory Cooperation. During and after the Executive’s employment, the Executive shall cooperate fully with the
Company in the defense or prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be brought in the future against
or on behalf of the Company which relate to events or occurrences that transpired while the Executive was employed by the Company.
The Executive’s full cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available
to meet with counsel to prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness on behalf of the Company at mutually convenient
times. During and after the Executive’s employment, the Executive also shall cooperate fully with the Company in connection
with any investigation or review of any federal, state or local regulatory authority as any such investigation or review relates
to events or occurrences that transpired while the Executive was employed by the Company. The Company shall reimburse the Executive
for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Executive’s performance of obligations pursuant
to this Section 11. This Section 11 shall survive the termination of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement for
any reason.


 


12.          Arbitration
of Disputes. Except as provided in Section 13, any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement
or otherwise arising out of the Executive’s employment or the termination of that employment (including, without limitation,
any claims of unlawful employment discrimination or other statutory claims) shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Albany,
New York, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction. In the event that the Company terminates the Executive’s employment for Cause under Section 6(b)
and the Executive contends that Cause did not exist, then the Company’s only obligation with respect to the dispute concerning
whether Cause exists under Section 6(b) shall be to submit such claim to arbitration and the only issue before the arbitrator
will be whether the Executive was in fact terminated for Cause. If the arbitrator determines that the Executive was not terminated
for Cause by the Company, then the only remedies that the arbitrator may award are (i) payment of amounts which would have been
payable if the Executive’s employment had been terminated under Section 6(e), (ii) the costs of arbitration, (iii) the Executive’s
reasonable attorneys’ fees, and (iv) all rights and benefits granted or in effect with respect to the Executive under the
Company’s stock option plans and agreements with the Executive pursuant thereto that have not been provided due to the Company’s
determination concerning the circumstances leading to the termination of the Executive’s employment, with the vesting and
exercise of any stock options and the forfeitability of any stock-based grants held by the Executive to be governed by the terms
of such plans and the related agreements between the Executive and the Company. If the arbitrator finds that the Executive’s
employment was terminated for Cause, the arbitrator will be without authority to award the Executive anything, and the parties
will each be responsible for their own attorneys’ fees, and they will divide the costs of arbitration equally. Furthermore,
should a dispute occur concerning the Executive’s mental or physical capacity as described in Section 6(c), a doctor selected
by the Executive and a doctor selected by the Company shall be entitled to examine the Executive. If the opinion of the Company’s
doctor and the Executive’s doctor conflict, the Company’s doctor and the Executive’s doctor shall together agree
upon a third doctor, whose opinion shall be binding. This Section 12 shall survive the termination of the Executive’s employment
under this Agreement for any reason.

13.          Specific
Performance. Notwithstanding Section 12 hereof, it is specifically understood and agreed that any breach of the provisions
of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 7 or 8 of this Agreement by the Executive is likely to result in irreparable
injury to the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, that the remedy at law alone will be inadequate remedy for such breach
and that, in addition to any other remedy it may have, the Company shall be entitled to enforce the specific performance of this
Agreement by the Executive and to seek both temporary and permanent injunctive relief (to the extent permitted by law), without
the necessity of proving actual damages. Therefore, any claim based on an alleged breach of Section 7 or 8 of this Agreement shall
not be subject to Section 12 hereof unless otherwise agreed. To the extent that any court action is permitted consistent with
or to enforce Section 7 or 8 of this Agreement or to enforce Section 12, the parties hereby agree to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction
of the Supreme Court of the State of New York (Albany County) and the United States District Court for the Northern District of
New York (City of Albany). Accordingly, with respect to any such court action, the Executive (i) submits to the personal jurisdiction
of such courts, (ii) consents to service of process, and (iii) waives any other requirement (whether imposed by statute, rule
of court or otherwise) with respect to personal jurisdiction or service of process.


 


14.         Notices.
All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given

15.         Amendment;
Waiver. This Agreement shall not be amended, modified or discharged in whole or in part except by an Agreement in writing
signed by both of the parties hereto. The failure of either of the parties to require the performance of a term or obligation
or to exercise any right under this Agreement or the waiver of any breach hereunder shall not prevent subsequent enforcement of
such term or obligation or exercise of such right or the enforcement at any time of any other right hereunder or be deemed a waiver
of any subsequent breach of the provision so breached, or of any other breach hereunder.


 


16.         Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of successors of the Company by way of merger, consolidation or transfer
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, and may not be assigned by the Executive. The Company shall require
any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the
business or assets of the Company expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement to the same extent that the Company
would be required to perform it if no succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain an assumption of this Agreement
at or prior to the effectiveness of any succession shall be a material breach of this Agreement.

the Prior Agreement.

Law. This Agreement shall be construed and regulated in all respects under the laws of the State of New York.


 


19.         Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be taken to be an original,
but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same document.
