	 	Re:	 Offer of Separation Compensation 



Dear Melissa: 
 This letter confirms the
agreement (“Agreement”) between you and Hims, Inc. (the “Company”) concerning the terms of your separation and offers you the separation compensation discussed with you in exchange for a general release of claims. 

1. Separation Date: May 1, 2020 is your last day of employment with the Company (the “Separation Date”).

 2. Final Payment of Wages: On your Separation Date, the Company will provide you with your final paycheck in the amount of
$1,345.85 less applicable taxes and deductions, for all wages due you from the Company as of the Separation Date. 
 3. Separation
Compensation: In exchange for your agreement to the general release and waiver of claims and covenant not to sue set forth below and your other promises herein, the Company agrees to provide you with the following that are collectively referred
to as “Separation Compensation”: 
  

	 	a.	 Severance: In exchange for your agreement to the general release and waiver of claims set forth below
and your other promises herein, the Company agrees to pay you, within ten (10) days following the Effective Date (as defined below) of this Agreement, a total of $175,000 less applicable state and federal payroll deductions, which equals six
(6) months of your base salary. You acknowledge you are not otherwise entitled to this Separation Compensation. 


  

	 	b.	 COBRA: Upon your timely election to continue your existing health benefits under COBRA, and consistent
with the terms of COBRA and the Company’s health insurance plan, the Company will pay the insurance premiums to continue your existing health benefits for six (6) months following the Separation Date. After that time you will remain
responsible for, and must continue to pay, the portion of premiums, co-payments, etc. that you would have paid had your employment continued. You will be provided with a separate notice describing your rights
and obligations under COBRA.

	 	c.	 Equity: Subject to your execution of this Agreement, and subject to the approval of the Company’s
Board of Directors, the Company agrees to provide for acceleration of the unvested Shares as further detailed in Section 7 below. 



4. Return of Company Property: You hereby warrant to the Company that, as of your Separation Date, you have returned to the Company all
property or data of the Company of any type whatsoever that has been in your possession or control. 
 5. Other Compensation and
Benefits. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you will not receive any additional compensation, benefits, or Separation Compensation after the Separation Date from the Company and that none is due or owing. For
any Company-sponsored employee compensation or benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement not specifically referenced in this Agreement, you will be treated as a terminated employee effective on your Separation Date. 

6. Confidential Information: You hereby acknowledge that you are and will continue to be bound by the attached Employee Confidential
Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement (Exhibit A hereto) and this Agreement does not modify or impact such Employee Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement or your obligations under such agreement in any way.
You further acknowledge that as a result of your employment with the Company you have had access to the Company’s Confidential Information (as defined in the agreement), that you will hold all Confidential Information in strictest confidence
and that you will not make use of such Confidential Information on behalf of anyone. You further confirm that you have delivered to the Company all documents and data of any nature containing or pertaining to such Confidential Information and that
you have not taken with you any such documents or data or any reproduction thereof. 
 7. Stock Options: Pursuant to your Stock Option
Agreement with the Company dated April 30, 2019 and the Company’s 2017 Stock Plan (hereafter collectively referred to as the “Stock Option Agreements”), you were granted an option to purchase an aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of
the Company’s Class A Common Stock (the “Option”). You exercised the Option for 1,800,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Shares”) with the Note (as defined below). Pursuant to Section 5 of your offer
letter by and between you and the Company dated March 26, 2019 (the “Offer Letter”), the Company agreed to accelerate the vesting of your Shares by adding six (6) months to your actual period of service (the
“Acceleration”), subject to your execution of this Agreement, if during your vesting period you are terminated by the Company for any other reason other than Cause (as defined in the Offer Letter). Including the Acceleration as of the
Separation Date, 675,000 total of the Shares that you purchased by exercising the Option have vested (the “Vested Shares”) and 1,125,000 Shares remain unvested (the “Unvested Shares”). In addition, the Company hereby notifies you
that it is exercising its right to repurchase from you the 1,125,000 Unvested Shares in exchange for the cancellation of

 $888,750 of principal of the Promissory Note by and between you and the Company dated as of August 21,
2019 (the “Note”). You and the Company agree that the principal amount of $533,250 will remain outstanding on the Note pursuant to its terms (and, for clarity, will continue to accrue interest). The Company will cancel the stock
certificate that was issued in your name with respect to the shares that you purchased, and it will issue you a new stock certificate for the remaining Vested Shares. The Stock Option Agreements will remain in full force and effect, and you agree to
remain bound by that Agreement. As of the Separation Date, you will have no further interest in the repurchased shares and will have no stockholder rights with respect to those shares. Any other Stock Option Agreements or Stock Purchase Agreements
between you and the Company will also remain in full force and effect. 
 8. General Release and Waiver of Claims: In consideration
for receiving the Separation Compensation described above, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you waive, release and promise never to assert any claims or causes of action, whether or not now known, against the Company or its
predecessors, successors or past or present subsidiaries, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, consultants, attorneys, agents, assigns and employee benefit plans (“Releasees”) with respect to any matter, including (without
limitation) any matter related to your employment with the Company or the termination of that employment, including (without limitation) claims or demands related to base pay, salary, bonuses, commissions, stock, stock options, stock-based
compensation or any other ownership interests in Hims, vacation/paid time off, fringe benefits, expense reimbursements, severance pay, or any other form of compensation; attorneys’ fees or costs; claims of wrongful discharge, constructive
discharge, emotional distress, defamation, invasion of privacy, fraud, breach of contract or breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and any claims of discrimination or harassment based on sex, age, race, national origin, disability or
any other basis under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act), the Americans with
Disabilities Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the National Labor Relations Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), the Workers Adjustment and Retraining
Notification Act, the California Labor Code where permitted, and all other laws and regulations relating to employment.    However, this release covers only those claims that arose prior to the execution of this Agreement and
only those claims that may be waived by applicable law. Execution of this Agreement does not bar any claim that arises hereafter, including (without limitation) a claim for breach of this Agreement or any claim to indemnification under
Section 2802 of the California Labor Code, any right you have to file or pursue a claim for workers’ compensation or unemployment insurance, or any rights which are not waivable as a matter of law. To the fullest extent permitted by law,
any dispute regarding the scope of this general release shall be determined by an arbitrator under the procedures set forth in the arbitration agreement between the parties.

 10. Nondisparagement: You agree that you will not disparage Releasees or their
products, services, agents, representatives, directors, officers, shareholders, attorneys, employees, vendors, affiliates, successors or assigns, or any person acting by, through, under or in concert with any of them, with any written or oral
statement. Nothing in this section or in this Agreement shall prohibit you from providing truthful information in response to a subpoena, court order, written request from an administrative agency or legislature, or other law or legal process. 

11. Arbitration: Except for any claim for injunctive relief arising out of a breach of a party’s obligations to protect the
other’s proprietary information and any matter separately covered by the Arbitration Agreement you signed at the beginning of employment, the parties agree to arbitrate, in San Francisco County, California through JAMS, any and all disputes or
claims arising out of or related to the validity, enforceability, interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement, whether sounding in tort, contract, statutory violation or otherwise, or involving the construction or application or any of
the terms, provisions, or conditions of this Agreement. Any arbitration may be initiated by a written demand to the other party. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final, binding, and conclusive. The parties further agree that this Agreement is
intended to be strictly construed to provide for arbitration as the sole and exclusive means for resolution of all disputes hereunder to the fullest extent permitted by law. The parties expressly waive any entitlement to have such controversies
decided by a court or a jury. 
 12. Attorneys’ Fees: If any action is brought to enforce the terms of this Agreement, the
prevailing party will be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses from the other party, in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled. 

13. Confidentiality and No Sexual Harassment or Abuse: The contents, terms and conditions of this Agreement must be kept confidential by
you and may not be disclosed except to your immediate family, accountant or attorneys or pursuant to subpoena, court order or other law or legal process. You agree that, except as otherwise allowed in this section or required by law, if you are
asked for information concerning this Agreement, you will state only that you and the Company reached an amicable resolution of any disputes concerning your separation from the Company. Any breach of this confidentiality provision shall be deemed a
material breach of this Agreement.    You and the Company expressly acknowledge and agree that your resignation of employment is in no way related to sexual harassment or abuse (or any allegations or claims related to sexual
harassment or abuse) and that no portion of the compensation, benefits or other consideration payable under this Agreement pertains to any settlement or payment related to sexual harassment or sexual abuse or attorney’s fees related to such a
settlement or payment. 
 14. No Admission of Liability: This Agreement is not and shall not be construed or contended by you to be an
admission or evidence of any wrongdoing or liability on the part of Releasees, their representatives, heirs, executors, attorneys, agents, partners, officers, shareholders, directors, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions, successors or
assigns. This Agreement shall be afforded the maximum protection allowable under California Evidence Code Section 1152 and/or any other state or federal provisions of similar effect.

 15. Complete and Voluntary Agreement: This Agreement, together with Exhibit A hereto,
the Arbitration Agreement you signed at the beginning of your employment with the Company, and the Stock Option Agreements, constitute the entire agreement between you and Releasees with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
negotiations and agreements, whether written or oral, relating to such subject matter. You acknowledge that neither Releasees nor their agents or attorneys have made any promise, representation or warranty whatsoever, either express or implied,
written or oral, which is not contained in this Agreement for the purpose of inducing you to execute the Agreement, and you acknowledge that you have executed this Agreement in reliance only upon such promises, representations and warranties as are
contained herein, and that you are executing this Agreement voluntarily, free of any duress or coercion. 
 16. Severability: The
provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any part of it is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the other parts shall remain fully valid and enforceable. Specifically, should a court, arbitrator, or government agency conclude that a
particular claim may not be released as a matter of law, it is the intention of the parties that the general release, the waiver of unknown claims and the covenant not to sue above shall otherwise remain effective to release any and all other
claims. 
 17. Modification; Counterparts; Facsimile/PDF Signatures: It is expressly agreed that this Agreement may not be altered,
amended, modified, or otherwise changed in any respect except by another written agreement that specifically refers to this Agreement, executed by authorized representatives of each of the parties to this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Execution of a facsimile or PDF copy shall have the same force and effect as execution of an original, and
a copy of a signature will be equally admissible in any legal proceeding as if an original. 
 18. Governing Law: This Agreement shall
be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. 
 If you agree to abide by the terms outlined in this
letter, please sign this letter below and also sign the attached copy and return it to me on or before the end of the review period noted in Paragraph 10. I wish you the best in your future endeavors.
