RECITALS
An attractive and competitive remuneration program is essential for the recruitment and long-term commitment of highly qualified employees. 
As part of the intention of MorphoSys AG (“MorphoSys” or the “Company”) to further strengthen its presence in the USA and recruit and retain highly qualified employees, a share-based employee participation program is required which takes into account US standards and expectations and which shall be implemented for selected senior managers and employees (including directors and officers) of US subsidiaries of MorphoSys.
Therefore, MorphoSys intends to implement a “Restricted Stock Unit Program” (the “RSUP 2022 (US)”) as a long-term remuneration component for senior managers and employees (including directors and officers) of subsidiaries of MorphoSys in the USA (the “MorphoSys US Subsidiaries”) (the “Employees”). 
Under the RSUP 2022 (US), the Company shall be allowed to grant so-called “Restricted Stock Units” (“RSUs” and each a “RSU”) to the Employees, which – if certain requirements are met – grant the Employees a claim against the Company, the amount of which depends, amongst others, on the stock exchange price of the shares of the Company (the “Shares”), and which shall generally be settled in Shares of the Company. 
With resolution dated May 18, 2022, the Company’s General Meeting (Hauptversammlung) has authorized the Management Board (Vorstand), with the consent of the Supervisory Board (Aufsichtsrat), until May 17, 2027 (including) to increase the Company’s registered share capital by up to € 1,978,907.00 against cash contributions and/or contributions in kind once or several times by issuing up to 1,978,907 new no-par value bearer Shares (auf den Inhaber lautende Stückaktien) (“Authorized Capital 2022-I”). The Authorized Capital 2022-I only serves the purpose of delivering Shares of the Company against the contribution of cash payment claims resulting from RSUs, in order to settle RSUs that were granted to Employees.
Page 4/29





    

The present terms and conditions (the “RSUP Terms & Conditions”) establish the rules pursuant to which the RSUs under the RSUP 2022 (US) can be granted and settled.
§ 1
ELIGIBILITY
1.1RSUs can be granted to Employees (together the “Participants”). 
1.2Persons who, at the same time to being an Employee, are members of the Company’s Management Board, or are an employee of the Company, are not eligible to participate in the RSUP 2022 (US).
1.3Eligibility as a Participant is determined by the Company’s Management Board. 
§ 2
GRANT OF RSUs
2.1Under the RSUP 2022 (US), RSUs may be granted to the Employees. RSUs that are forfeited will once again be available for future grants. 
2.2The Company’s Management Board will determine an individual USD award amount (the “Award Amount”) to be granted to each Participant by way of a separate award agreement (“Award Agreement”) and such Award Amount will be converted into a certain number of RSUs. 
2.3With respect to the conversion of the Award Amount into RSUs, i.e., to calculate the exact number of RSUs to be allocated to a Participant, the respective Award Amount must, in a first step, be converted into a respective amount in Euros (the “Conversion”). The Conversion shall be based on the average Euro foreign exchange reference rate, as published on the official website of the European Central Bank (ECB) during the 30 (thirty) business days prior to the Award Date (as defined in § 2.5) (the “Euro Award Amount”). In a second step, the Euro Award Amount is divided by the average closing price (Schlusskurs) of the Shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse) in Xetra trading (or a comparable successor system) on the 30 (thirty) trading days prior to the Award Date (as defined in § 2.5) (exclusive), rounded down to the nearest whole number; the number resulting from such calculation (step one and step two) equals the number of RSUs to be allocated to a Participant (the “Initial Number of 
Page 5/29





    

RSUs”). If a closing auction does not take place on the relevant trading day(s) or a price is not determined in the auction, the applicable price will be the last price quoted in continuous trading, provided there was continuous trading on that trading day.
For example: If a Participant is granted an Award Amount of USD 100,000.00 and the USD/EUR exchange rate on the Award Date is 1 USD = 0.9060 EUR, then the Euro Award Amount amounts to EUR 90,600 (100,000.00 x 0.9060). If the average closing price (Schlusskurs) of the Shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse) in Xetra trading on the 30 trading days prior to the Award Date amounted to EUR 28.00, then the Initial Number of RSUs to be allocated to the Participant would amount to 3,235 (EUR 90,600.00 / EUR 28.00 = 3,235.714, rounded down to the nearest whole number).
2.4RSUs can be awarded as per the first date of a calendar month, subject to a continuing and non-terminated (including termination by way of a mutual argreement) service relationship or employment of the relevant Participant with a MorphoSys US Subsidiary at the relevant Award Date (as defined in § 2.5).
2.5The date on which the Award Agreement becomes effective (the “Award Date”) shall be the date on which the Participant receives the offer to conclude the Award Agreement (irrespective of the point in time the offer to conclude the Award Agreement is accepted), unless the Award Agreement specifies an earlier or a later date as Award Date.
§ 3
WAITING PERIOD, ANNUAL CYCLE AND VESTING 
3.1Each RSU is subject to a waiting period of three (3) years (“Waiting Period”), which shall commence on the Award Date at 00:00 hours (beginning of the day) and end on the day prior to the third anniversary of the Award Date at 24:00 hours (midnight) (“Waiting Period Expiration Date”).
For example: If the Award Date is June 1, 2022, the Waiting Period would start on June 1, 2022, at 00:00 hours (beginning of the day) and end on May 31, 2025, at 24:00 hours (midnight).
3.2The Waiting Period is divided into three annual cycles (“Annual Cycles”). The first Annual Cycle will commence on the Award Date at 00:00 hours 
Page 6/29





    

(beginning of the day) and end on the day prior to the first anniversary of the Award Date at 24:00 hours (midnight), the second Annual Cycle will commence on the day of the first anniversary of the Award Date at 00:00 hours (beginning of the day) and end on the day prior to the second anniversary of the Award Date at 24:00 hours (midnight) and the third Annual Cycle will commence on the day of the second anniversary of the Award Date at 00:00 hours (beginning of the day) and end on the day prior to the third anniversary of the Award Date at 24:00 hours (midnight) (each an “Annual Cycle”). 
3.3One third (1/3) of the Initial Number of RSUs will vest at the end of each Annual Cycle subject to the following conditions: (i) the achievement of certain KPIs (§ 4) and (ii) no forfeiture of RSUs pursuant to § 5 (the “Vested RSUs”). 
3.4After expiry of the Waiting Period and an administration period in which to determine the settlement amounts, the Company will settle the total number of Vested RSUs; provided, that such settlement shall occur no later than 90 days following the Waiting Period Expiration Date. 
§ 4
KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
4.1With respect to an Annual Cycle, RSUs will vest only if and to the extent the KPIs (as defined in § 4.2) have been reached or exceeded in accordance with the following provisions. 
4.2Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”, and each a “KPI”), as determined by the Board of Directors of the relevant MorphoSys US Subsidiary and with the consent of the Management Board will be: 
4.2.1the contribution margin performance of MorphoSys US over the fiscal year in which an Annual Cycle starts, measured and evaluated in relation to the Contribution Margin Performance (as defined in § 4.3) (“Contribution Margin KPI”);
4.2.2the Monjuvi sales over the fiscal year in which an Annual Cycle starts, measured and evaluated in relation to the Monjuvi Sales Performance (as defined in § 4.3) (“Monjuvi KPI”); and
Page 7/29





    

4.2.3the achievement of an ESG-target over the fiscal year, in which an Annual Cycle starts, measured and evaluated in relation to the ESG Performance (as defined in § 4.3) (“ESG KPI”),
whereby KPIs will in any case be equally set for all Participants. 
For example: If an Annual Cycle starts on June 1, 2022, the Contribution Margin KPI, the Monjuvi KPI and the ESG KPI will be measured and evaluated on the basis of the contribution margin performance respectively the Monjuvi sales performance respectively the ESG performance during the fiscal year starting January 1, 2022, through December 31, 2022. 
4.3The Board of Directors of the relevant MorphoSys US Subsidiary, with the consent of the Company’s Management Board, will determine the performance to be achieved for each KPI with respect to a certain Annual Cycle (respectively the “Contribution Margin Performance”, the “Monjuvi Performance” and the “ESG Performance”) and which will, depending on the degree of achievement (as a percentage) of each KPI, correspond with a certain “KPI Achievement Rate” for the respective Annual Cycle, respectively the “Contribution Margin KPI Achievement Rate”, the “Monjuvi KPI Achievement Rate”  and the “ESG KPI Achievement Rate” for the respective Annual Cycle. If the KPI Achievement Rate for any of the KPIs exceeds 175%, the respective KPI Achievement Rate will nevertheless be 175% (“Cap”).
4.4Once the KPIs for a certain Annual Cycle have been determined pursuant to section 4.3, the Participants will be provided with such information. 
4.5The “Overall KPI Achievement Rate” for a respective Annual Cycle will be calculated as the sum of (i) the Contribution Margin KPI Achievement Rate, multiplied by 0.4, (ii) the Monjuvi KPI Achievement Rate, multiplied by 0.4, and the (iii) ESG KPI Achievement Rate, multiplied by 0.2, each of which will be determined in accordance with the KPIs that will be provided to a Participant for each Annual Cycle in accordance with § 4.4. and the result rounded commercially to the nearest whole number.
For example: If the Contribution Margin KPI Achievement Rate for an Annual Cycle is 78%, the Monjuvi KPI Achievement Rate is 35% and the ESG KPI 
Page 8/29





    

Achievement Rate is 180%, the Overall KPI Achievement Rate will be calculated as follows:
Note: In accordance with § 4.3, the ESG KPI Achievement Rate was capped at 175%. 
78 * 0.4 + 35 * 0.4 + 175 * 0.2 = 80.2%, i.e. 80% (rounded commercially to the nearest whole number). 
4.6The number of Vested RSUs at the end of an Annual Cycle will be calculated by multiplying (i) one third (1/3) of the Initial Number of RSUs allocated to a Participant with (ii) the Overall KPI Achievement Rate, and the result commercially rounded, provided, however, that at least an Overall KPI Achievement Rate of 50% must be reached (“Hurdle”), otherwise the number of Vested RSUs for the respective Annual Cycle will be 0. 
The following chart illustrates exemplarily a certain number of RSUs that vest at the end of an Annual Cycle pursuant to this § 4, depending on the degree of achievement of certain Overall KPI Achievement Rate:

	[etc.]	[etc.]
	120%	[1/3 of Initial Number of RSUs] x 120%

	130%	[1/3 of Initial Number of RSUs] x 130%
	[etc.]	[etc.]
	175%	[1/3 of Initial Number of RSUs] x 175%


4.7After the expiry of the Waiting Period, the Vested RSUs for each Annual Cycle are added to calculate the total number of Vested RSUs.
For example: If the Initial Number of RSUs granted to a Participant was 3,235 and during the first Annual Cycle an Overall KPI Achievement Rate of 78% was achieved, during the second Annual Cycle an Overall KPI Achievement Rate of 35% was achieved, and during the third Annual Cycle an Overall KPI Achievement Rate of 175% (Cap) was achieved, the number of Vested RSUs at the end of the first Annual Cycle is 841 (1/3 of the 3,235 granted RSUs x 78%), the number of Vested RSUs at the end of the second Annual Cycle is 0 (since the minimum Hurdle of 50% was not achieved) and the number of Vested RSUs at the end of the third Annual Cycle is 1,887 RSUs (1/3 of the 3,235 granted RSUs x 175%). Thus, after expiry of the Waiting Period, the total Vested RSUs that will be settled would be 2,728 (841 + 0 + 1,887).
§ 5
CONSEQUENCES OF A TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
5.1With respect to an Annual Cycle, RSUs will vest only if the Participant still has an active employment relationship with a MorphoSys US Subsidiary at 
Page 10/29





    

the end of the relevant Annual Cycle, subject to the provisions set out in § 5.2 and § 5.3 below.
5.2If a Participant’s employment with a MorphoSys US Subsidiary terminates for Cause (as defined hereinafter) before the expiry of the Waiting Period (such Participant a “Bad Leaver”), such that the Bad Leaver is no longer an Employee, all RSUs granted to the Bad Leaver (whether held by him or any third party and whether vested or unvested) will be forfeited without entitlement to compensation or other consideration. An event of “Cause” exists if a Participant: (i) materially violates any term of any agreement between the Participant and a MorphoSys US Subsidiary; (ii) repeatedly fails to follow reasonable instructions of a MorphoSys US Subsidiary, is chronically absent from work, fails to perform any reasonably assigned duties after receiving written notice of same from a MorphoSys US Subsidiary, or willfully violates any written policy of a MorphoSys US Subsidiary, provided to the Participant; (iii) engages in unprofessional conduct that results in, or reasonably could result in, unfavorable publicity for a MorphoSys US Subsidiary, or engages in unprofessional conduct inconsistent with the Participant’s position with a MorphoSys US Subsidiary; or (iv) engages in any of the following forms of willful misconduct: (a) conviction of the commission of any felony, or any criminal act involving moral turpitude, or any misdemeanor where imprisonment is imposed; (b) misappropriation, theft or destruction of a MorphoSys US Subsidiary, property; (c) securing or attempting to secure any personal profit in connection with any transaction entered into by or on behalf of a MorphoSys US Subsidiary; (d) causing substantial material harm to a MorphoSys US Subsidiary, as a result of Participant’s malfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of Participant’s duties and responsibilities; (e) falsification of any business record of a MorphoSys US Subsidiary; (f) any material act of fraud or dishonesty within the scope of, or relating to, Participant’s employment by a MorphoSys US Subsidiary; (g) commission of any crime relating to Participant’s employment with a MorphoSys US Subsidiary; or (h) violation of any law or regulation applicable to the business of a MorphoSys US Subsidiary.
5.3If a Participant’s employment at a MorphoSys US Subsidiary terminates before the expiry of the Waiting Period for any reason other than for Cause or not qualifying the relevant Participant as a Bad Leaver (such Participant a 
Page 11/29





    

“Good Leaver”), such Good Leaver will retain the RSUs that have already vested pursuant to § 3.3 and § 4 with respect to any Annual Cycle completed before the date of the Good Leaver’s termination of employment becomes effective (the “Termination Date”). Any additional RSUs that were granted to such Good Leaver and that have not vested will not continue to vest following the Termination Date and instead, they shall be forfeited by the Good Leaver on the Termination Date without any compensation or other consideration paid therefor. No partial vesting will take place with respect to any Annual Cycle that is in effect at the time a Termination Date occurs. Any retained RSUs that were vested as of the Good Leaver’s Termination Date shall be paid following the Waiting Period Expiration Date, consistent with § 6, below. § 5.3 shall not apply in case a Participant’s employment at a MorphoSys US Subsidiary ends and such Participant, qualifying as a Good Leaver, continues to have an employment with another MorphoSys US Subsidiary.
5.4For example: If a Participant, qualifying as a Good Leaver in the aforementioned sense under § 5.3 above, is notified of a termination of his employment with a MorphoSys US Subsidiary, in the example in § 4.7 in the first Annual Cycle, and such termination has a Termination Date that occurs during the second Annual Cycle of the Waiting Period, such Participant will retain the 841 Vested RSUs from the first Annual Cycle; however, the remaining RSUs originally granted to such Participant (applicable to the second and third Annual Cycles) will be forfeited on the Termination Date without compensation or other consideration paid to the Participant. No further vesting of the Participant’s award of RSUs will occur at the end of the second or third Annual Cycles or at any other time.
§ 6
CASH PAYMENT CLAIM RESULTING FROM RSUs AND SETTLEMENT OF RSUs; CASHLESS EXERCISE OPTION
6.1Upon expiration of the Waiting Period, each Vested RSU shall entitle the Participant to a cash payment claim (the “Cash Payment Claim”) against the Company in the amount of the closing price (Schlusskurs) of the Shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse) in Xetra trading (or a comparable successor system) (i) in case of a Cash Settlement (as defined in § 6.2), on the Cash Settlement Date (as defined in § 6.2) or, (ii) in case of a Share Settlement (as defined in § 6.3), on the day of the resolution of the Company’s Management Board to utilize, with the consent of the Company’s Supervisory Board, the Authorized Capital 2022-I against 
Page 12/29





    

contribution in kind (the “Capital Increase Resolution Date”). If a closing auction does not take place on the relevant trading day(s) or a price is not determined in the auction, the applicable price will be the last price quoted in continuous trading, provided there was continuous trading on that trading day. In case of a delisting of the Company prior to the expiry of the Waiting Period, the relevant closing price shall be the price which had to be offered as part of the compulsory public tender offer pursuant to section 39 para. 2 no. 1, paras. 3 et seqq. of the German Stock Exchange Act (Börsengesetz). 
6.2Within 90 days following the Waiting Period Expiration Date, the Company will settle the Vested RSUs as determined by the Company in its sole discretion by fulfilling the Cash Payment Claim (i) by way of an effective cash payment to a bank account designated to the Company by the respective Participant in advance (the “Cash Settlement”), or (ii) by transferring Shares to the Participant in accordance with § 6.3, or (iii) by a combination of both. In case of a Cash Settlement, the Company will convert the Cash Payment Claim, denominated in Euros, into a USD amount, based on the Euro foreign exchange reference rate, as published on the official website of the European Central Bank (ECB) on the actual date (within 90 business days following the Waiting Period Expiration Date) on which such payment is made (the “Cash Settlement Date”). 
6.3In the event of a settlement in the form of Shares, whereby Shares are created from a capital increase out of the Authorized Capital 2022-I (Kapitalerhöhung aus Genehmigtem Kapital 2022-I), the respective contribution in kind (Sacheinlage) for the new Shares shall be the Cash Payment Claim (denominated in EUR) resulting from the Vested RSUs. The Cash Payment Claim (denominated in EUR) will then – in the course of the capital increase – be contributed by the Participant to the Company against issuance of one (1) new Share for each one (1) Vested RSU (the “Share Settlement”). In the event of a Share Settlement, the Participant will be required to take all measures necessary to effect the Share Settlement, including, for example, the opening of an account to which the Shares may be booked, the conclusion of a contribution agreement with the Company and/or the subscription of the new Shares to be issued to the Participant by way of a subscription certificate. The actual date (within 90 business days following the Waiting Period Expiration Date) on which the new Shares, which were created from the capital increase against contribution in kind, are 
Page 13/29





    

transferred to the securities’ account of the respective Participant, the “Share Settlement Date”. 
For example: If the Waiting Period Expiration Date for the 2,728 Vested RSUs in the example in § 4.7 occurs on May 31, 2025, the Company may decide, in its sole discretion, whether to settle the 2,728 Vested RSUs by way of a Cash Settlement or a Share Settlement (or a combination of both):
(a)In case of a Cash Settlement, the Company will identify the closing price (Schlusskurs) of the Shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse) in Xetra trading (or a comparable successor system) on the Cash Settlement Date. Assuming, on the Cash Settlement Date, the closing price (Schlusskurs) amounted to EUR 90.00, the Participant’s Cash Payment Claim resulting from the 2,728 Vested RSUs would amount to EUR 245,520.00. Assuming the EUR/USD exchange rate on the Cash Settlement Date is 1 EUR = 1.1500 USD, the Cash Payment Claim the respective Participant is entitled to USD 282,348.00. 
(b)In case of a Share Settlement, the Company will request certain information from the Participant, which is necessary to perform the Share Settlement. Once the information has been provided by the Participant to the Company, and following the expiry of the Waiting Period, the Company will identify the closing price (Schlusskurs) of the Shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse) in Xetra trading (or a comparable successor system) on the Capital Increase Resolution Date. Assuming, on the Capital Increase Resolution Date, the closing price (Schlusskurs) amounted to EUR 90.00, the Participant’s Cash Payment Claim resulting from the 2,728 Vested RSUs would amount to EUR 245,520.00. Following such determination, the Company’s Management Board, with the consent of the Supervisory Board, shall resolve to issue 2,728 new Shares by way of a capital increase in the context of which the Company’s share capital will be increased by EUR 2,728.00 against contribution in kind of the Cash Payment Claim of the Participant in the aggregate amount of EUR 245,520.00. Following the registration of the consummation of the capital increase, the 2,728 new Shares will be transferred to a security deposit of the Participant on the Share Settlement Date. 
Page 14/29





    

The Company may, at its discretion, settle the Vested RSUs in treasury shares instead of Shares stemming from the Authorized Capital 2022-I. In such case, one Vested RSU entitles the Participant to the subscription of one Share in the Company.
6.4In case of a Share Settlement, in order to facilitate the exercise of the RSUs by the Participants, the Company may in its sole discretion arrange for the Participant with a service provider (“Service Provider”) a cashless exercise settlement option (“Cashless Settlement Option”). Such Cashless Settlement Option may provide that the Service Provider arranges a sale on behalf of the relevant Participant of such a number of Shares resulting from the Share Settlement of the Vested RSUs as is necessary to repay any taxes and/or employee social security contributions or other fees due by the Participant in connection with the settlement of the Vested RSUs. Any Participant who makes use of the Cashless Settlement Option has to bear all costs relating to the Cashless Settlement Option and the sale of the Shares resulting from the Vested RSUs.
6.5The Company will inform the Participant whether it will make use of the Cash Settlement (as defined in § 6.2) or the Share Settlement (as defined in § 6.3) or a combination of both in advance of the settlement.
§ 7
TRANSFERABILlTY
7.1Neither the RSUs nor the rights of any Participant under any RSU or under the RSUP 2022 (US) are assignable or otherwise transferable except as provided in this § 7 and in case it is required to implement a Cashless Exercise Option under § 6.4.
7.2The RSUs are transferable only by will or applicable laws of descent upon the death of the relevant Participant.

§ 8
CHANGE OF CONTROL
8.1For purposes of this § 8, “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events:
8.1.1the transfer of the corporate assets of the Company as a whole or in substantial parts to a company not affiliated with the Company;

Each Participant is obliged to pay taxes relating to the respective RSUs granted/settled under the RSUP 2022 (US), or relating to a transfer (if permitted under these RSUP Terms & Conditions) of such RSUs by the Participant to a third party, to the competent tax authorities. Each Participant shall fully indemnify the Company in respect of all such liabilities and obligations against tax authorities.

13.3Withholdings mentioned above do not release the Participant from his responsibility and obligation to pay all taxes, social contributions, further duties and costs being due and accruing in connection with his participation in the RSUP 2022 (US) or the allocation/grant, settlement or transfer of any RSUs.
13.4The compensation and benefits under these RSUP Terms & Conditions are intended to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and these RSUP Terms & Conditions will be interpreted and administered in a manner consistent with that intent. The preceding provision, however, shall not be construed as a guarantee by the Company of any particular tax effect to any Participant under these RSUP Terms & Conditions and shall not constitute an indemnity from the Company to any Participant. References to “termination of employment” and similar terms used in these RSUP Terms & Conditions mean, to the extent necessary to comply with and Section 409A of the Code, the date that the Participant first incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.
