​
​

​
​
		7.5.
	The Optionee agrees that in the event that the shareholders of the Company receive a purchase offer regarding their shares in the Company, and the purchase offer is conditioned upon the sale of all or substantially all of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company (a “Purchase Offer”), and shareholders holding the requisite majority required under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (as amended from time to time) indicate their acceptance of such offer (which majority may include the Shares, as further specified in the Proxy attached hereto) (a “Bring Along Transaction”), then the Optionee will be required to sell or exchange all of his or her shares of the Company in the same transaction at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as applicable, including without limitation signing and executing any documents required to effectuate such transaction and taking all necessary action in connection therewith, but without derogating from the power and authority granted by the Optionee to the proxy under the irrevocable Proxy.



​
		8.
	Taxes; Indemnification



​
		8.1.
	The Optionee agrees that the Company does not have a duty to design or administer the ISOP or its other compensation programs in a manner that minimizes the Optionee’s tax liabilities. Any tax consequences arising from the grant or exercise of any Option, from the payment for Shares covered thereby or from any other event or act (of the Company and/or its Affiliates, or the Optionee), hereunder, shall be borne solely by the Optionee. The Company and/or its Affiliates shall withhold taxes according to the requirements under the applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including withholding taxes at source. In the event that the Company and/or its Affiliates determine that it is required to withhold any tax as a result of the exercise of this Option, the Optionee, as a condition to the exercise of this Option, shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or its Affiliates to enable it to satisfy all withholding requirements. The Optionee shall also make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or its Affiliates to enable it to satisfy any withholding requirements that may arise in connection with the disposition of Shares purchased by exercising this Option. Furthermore, the Optionee hereby agrees to indemnify the Company and/or its Affiliates and hold them harmless against and from any and all liability for any such tax or interest or penalty thereon, including without limitation, liabilities relating to the necessity to withhold, or to have withheld, any such tax from any payment made to the Optionee.



​
		8.2.
	The Optionee will not be entitled to receive from the Company any Shares allocated or issued upon the exercise of Options prior to the full payments of the Optionee’s tax liabilities arising from Options which were granted to him and/or Shares issued upon the exercise of Options. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be required to release any share certificate to the Optionee until all payments required to be made by the Optionee have been fully satisfied.



​
		8.3.
	The receipt of the Options and the acquisition of the Shares to be issued upon the exercise of the Options may result in tax consequences. THE OPTIONEE IS ADVISED TO CONSULT A TAX ADVISER WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF RECEIVING OR EXERCISING THIS OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES.



​
		9.
	Miscellaneous



​
		9.1.
	No Obligation to Exercise Options. The grant and acceptance of these Options imposes no obligation on the Optionee to exercise it.



​
​
​

4




​
​
		9.2.
	Confidentiality. The Optionee shall regard the information in this Option Agreement and its exhibits attached hereto, as well as any related documents and materials provided to Optionee in connection therewith, as confidential information and the Optionee shall not reveal its contents to anyone except when required by law or for the purpose of gaining legal or tax advice.



​
		9.3.
	Data Privacy Notice and Consent. In accepting the Options herein, the Optionee expressly consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of his personal Data, as described below, by and among Company and its Affiliates and/or other custodian and/or the applicable tax authorities for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Optionee’s participation in the ISOP. In addition, the Optionee acknowledges that Company and/or Affiliates may hold certain personal information concerning the Optionee, including, but not limited to, the Optionee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in Company and/or Affiliates, details of all Options or any other entitlement to shares awarded, canceled, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the ISOP; (ii) Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the ISOP, including to third parties outside of the jurisdiction in which the Optionee resides and further transfers thereafter, or elsewhere, and that the third parties’ countries may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Optionee’s country; and (iii) Participant may request a list with the names and addresses of such third parties by contacting the Company. The Optionee further acknowledges that he may refuse or withdraw his consent to the above at no cost by contacting in writing the Company and that such refusal or withdrawal of consent may affect the Optionee’s ability to participate in the ISOP.



​
		9.4.
	Continuation of Employment or Service. Neither the ISOP nor this Option Agreement shall impose any obligation on the Company and/or an Affiliate to continue the Optionee’s employment or service and nothing in the ISOP or in this Option Agreement shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company and/or an Affiliate or restrict the right of the Company and/or an Affiliate to terminate such employment or service at any time.



​
		9.5.
	No other Rights. The Optionee hereby acknowledges that participation in the ISOP is voluntary. The value of the Options is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of the Optionee’s normal employment and compensation rights, if any. As such, the Options are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any payments due to severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service, bonuses, long-service awards, pensions or retirement benefits or similar payments unless specifically and otherwise provided in the plans or agreements governing such compensation. The ISOP is discretionary in nature and may be amended, cancelled, or terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion, at any time. The grant of Options under the ISOP is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive any other grant of Options or other awards under the ISOP in the future. Future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company, including, but not limited to, the timing of the grant, the form of award, number of shares subject to an award, vesting, and exercise or settlement provisions, as relevant.

​
		9.7.
	No Waiver; Severability. The failure of any party to enforce at any time any provisions of this Option Agreement or the ISOP shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof. If one or more of the provisions of this Option Agreement shall be held unenforceable, the enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected; to the extent permissible by law, any provisions which could be deemed null and void shall first be revised retroactively to permit the provisions herein to be interpreted to carry out their intent and the intent of this Option Agreement and the ISOP.



​
		9.8.
	Provisions of the ISOP. The Options provided for herein are granted pursuant to the ISOP and said Options and this Option Agreement are in all respects governed by the ISOP and subject to all of the terms and provisions of the ISOP.

EXHIBIT C
​
IRREVOCABLE PROXY
​
Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Lemonade Group Inc. 2015 Incentive Share Option Plan and Option Agreement to which this Proxy is attached.
​
The undersigned, as record holder of securities of Lemonade, Inc. (the “Company”), hereby irrevocably appoints such person or persons as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of the Company (it is being clarified that the Board shall not be required to provide the undersigned with a notice of the identity of such designee in order for the designation to be effective), with the full power of substitution, as my proxy to attend all shareholders’ meetings and to vote, execute consents, and otherwise represent me with respect to any and all shares that the undersigned will hold or be entitled to vote at any time (including without limitation in respect of Shares issued upon exercise of Options under the Lemonade Group Inc. 2015 Incentive Share Option Plan), in the same manner and with the same effect as if the undersigned were personally present at any such meeting or voting such securities or personally acting on any matters submitted to shareholders for approval or consent, including, without limitation (a) any “Transaction” as such term is defined in the Option Plan, or the sale, lease or other disposition of material assets of the Company outside the ordinary course of business; (b) any “Liquidation” or “Dissolution”, as such term is defined or applied in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation as may be amended from time to time and/or in Section 9 of the ISOP; (c) any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (d) any private or public placement of Company shares, including without limitation an “IPO” of the Company as such term is defined in the Certificate of Incorporation; (e) any Bring Along Transaction (as defined in the Option Agreement to which this Proxy is attached) (any of (i)-(v), a “Special Transaction”).
​
For avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Shares, if represented by this Proxy at any shareholders meeting or in a written consent, shall be taken into account in determining any quorum or other voting requirements.
​
The Shares shall be voted by the Proxy holder in the same proportion as the votes of the other shareholders of the Company attending at such shareholders meeting in person, by proxy or in any other way and voting thereon. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, all Shares represented by this Proxy shall be voted whether or not all other shareholders attended such shareholders meeting.
​
Without derogating from the above, the undersigned hereby authorizes and grants the proxy holder, upon the approval of any Special Transaction by the required majority, the right to sign and execute in the undersigned’s name and on the undersigned’s behalf any relevant document concerning the Transaction (including any agreement), including any agreement covering or ancillary to the Special Transaction, such as, but not limited to, resolutions, decisions, requests, instruments, receipts and the like, and any affidavit or approval with respect to the Shares or to the rights which they represent in the Company in as much as the proxy holder shall deem it necessary or desirable to do so. In addition and without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, the undersigned hereby authorizes and grants the proxy holder the right to sign any document as aforesaid and any affidavit or approval and/or to make and execute any undertaking in the name of the undersigned and on his behalf if the proxy holder shall, in his sole discretion, deem that the document, affidavit or approval is necessary or desirable for purposes of effectuating any Special Transaction (including without limitation, any lock up or stand still agreement in connection with the Company’s offering of its shares to the public).
​
Without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, with respect to a Bring Along Transaction, in the event that shareholders holding the requisite majority required under the Certificate of Incorporation (the “Initiating Shareholders”), indicate their acceptance of a Purchase Offer (as such term is defined in the Option Agreement to which this Proxy is attached) then the proxy holder shall:
​
​

​



​
(i)               vote all Shares over which the proxy holder then holds voting power (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable): (A) in favor of or to approve such proposed transaction and any matter that could reasonably be expected to facilitate such proposed transaction, and (B) against any proposal for any recapitalization, merger, sale of shares or assets or other business combination (other than the transaction contemplated under the Purchase Offer) between the Company and any person or entity (other than the buyer submitting the Purchase Offer) or any other action or agreement that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company under the definitive agreement(s) related to such Purchase Offer, or which could result in any of the conditions to the Company’s obligations under such agreement(s) not being fulfilled, or that would otherwise impair the ability of the Company to properly and timely consummate such transaction contemplated under the Purchase Offer;
​
(ii)                waive any dissenting minority or similar rights in connection with the transaction contemplated under the Purchase Offer; and
​
(iii)           execute the relevant documents (including without limitation any instruments of conveyance and transfer, purchase agreements, merger agreements, escrow agreements, indemnification agreements, etc.) in connection with, and shall otherwise take all actions necessary and reasonable to effect, the transaction contemplated by the Purchase Offer, as requested by the Company and/or the Initiating Shareholders.
​
This Proxy is made pursuant to the Option Plan and the options granted to the undersigned thereunder. This Proxy shall apply to the fullest extent possible under applicable law. The undersigned acknowledges that this Proxy is coupled with an interest and affects the rights of third parties, including without limitation, the rights of existing shareholders of the Company, and is therefore irrevocable. The undersigned acknowledges that their execution of this Proxy and abiding by its terms was a condition precedent to the grant to the undersigned of options under the Option Plan and to its right to exercise and hold shares pursuant to such options. Accordingly, the undersigned agreed that in the event that the undersigned or anyone on his behalf raises any claims regarding the enforceability or applicability of this Proxy or attempts to narrow the Proxy’s application, the Company shall be entitled, by written notice to the undersigned, to cancel any options granted to the undersigned and repurchase for no consideration any shares issued to the undersigned, such cancellation and repurchase to be effective immediately upon the provision of a written notice by the Company to the undersigned to that effect, without the need for any further action or execution of an instrument of cancellation or transfer.
​
This irrevocable Proxy will remain in full force and effect until the consummation of an IPO, upon which it will terminate automatically.

​
		OPTIONEE:
	[            ]



​
		COMPANY:
	LEMONADE, INC.



​
		SECURITY:
	[            ]



​
		AMOUNT:
	[            ]



​
In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the undersigned Optionee represents to the Company the following:
​
(i)          Optionee is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Optionee is acquiring these Securities for investment for Optionee’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Optionee is aware that the investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity and is subject to the risk of complete loss. Optionee is able, without impairing his or her financial condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period and to suffer a complete loss of Optionee’s investment in the Securities.
​
(ii)           Optionee acknowledges that the Securities remain subject to the Company’s right of first refusal and the market stand-off (sometimes referred to as the “lock-up”), all in accordance with the ISOP and the applicable Option Agreement.
​
Optionee acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Optionee’s investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, Optionee understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if Optionee’s representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period of one year or any other fixed period in the future. Optionee further understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Optionee further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities. Optionee understands that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, and any other legend required under applicable state securities laws.
​
(iii)          Optionee acknowledges that he will not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Securities in violation of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the rules promulgated thereunder, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Optionee is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly from the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies under Rule 701 at the time of the grant of the Option to the Optionee, the exercise will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In the event the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Securities are not then registered under the Securities Act, ninety (90) days thereafter (or such longer period as any
​

​



market stand-off agreement may require) the Securities exempt under Rule 701 may be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule 144, including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and, in the case of an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain public information about the Company, (3) the amount of Securities being sold during any three month period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely filing of a Form 144, if applicable.
​
In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the time of grant of the Option, then the Securities may be resold in certain limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires the resale to occur not less than one year after the later of the date the Securities were sold by the Company or the date the Securities were sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and, in the case of acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, or by a non-affiliate who subsequently holds the Securities less than two years, the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in sections (1), (2), (3) and (4) of the paragraph immediately above.
​
(iv)          Optionee further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144 and 701 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rules 144 or 701 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk. Optionee understands that no assurances can be given that any such other registration exemption will be available in such event.
