Enumeral Biomedical Holdings, Inc.

2014 Equity Incentive Plan


 


Incentive Stock Option Agreement


 


Dear Kevin Sarney,


 


On July 31, 2014, the Compensation Committee
approved a grant of an Incentive Stock Option (the "Option") to you to purchase Common Stock of Enumeral Biomedical Holdings,
Inc. (the "Company") pursuant to the Enumeral Biomedical Holdings, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan").
The Option shall constitute and be treated at all times by you and the Company as an “incentive stock option,” as defined
under Section 422(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.


 


You are granted an Option to purchase 350,000
shares of Common Stock of the Company at the price of $1.00 per share which represents the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
on the date of grant. The date of grant of this Option is July 31, 2014.


 


1.          Vesting.
This Option may be exercised only to the extent it is vested. Subject to you remaining in the employ of the Company on the applicable
vesting dates below, this Option shall vest as follows:


 


		(a)	75,000 shares shall vest on July 31, 2015;



 


		(b)	225,000 shares shall vest monthly over 3 years in 36 equal monthly installments, beginning on August
31, 2015; and



 


		(c)	50,000 shares (the “Performance Option”) shall vest upon the earlier of (1) upon the
price of the Company’s common stock being above $3, $4, $5, $6, $7, $8, $9 and $10 per share (each a “Price Based Vesting
Milestone”) on a volume-weighted daily basis (adjusted for
any stock splits, recapitalizations or dividends) for at least 60 trading days (“Measuring Period”) following the filing
of the first registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for registering common stock of the Company, or
for at least 30 trading days following the effective date of the first registration statement (“Measuring Period”),
with such vesting to occur evenly across all stock prices provided that if a higher Price Based Vesting Milestone is maintained
for the Measuring Period, then the lower Priced Based Vesting Milestones shall also be deemed to have been achieved; or (2) entering
into one or more collaborations or joint ventures with third party biotechnology, pharmaceutical or other companies in the life
sciences or healthcare industry sector under which the Company would receive gross proceeds of at least $20 million, with twenty
five percent (25%) of the shares covered by the Performance Option vesting upon each receipt by the Company of $5 million increments
of gross proceeds to the Company (“Collaboration Proceeds”). The above vesting is additive, not exclusionary, and is
based on the original amount of the grant of the Performance Option without reduction for earlier vesting, meaning that, for example,
if the Company achieves the Price Based Vesting Milestone for the Measuring Period and then the Company receives $5 million in
Collaboration Proceeds, the Executive would be entitled to vest on 6,250 shares or 12.5% of the original grant amount of Performance
Option plus 12,500 shares or 25% of the original grant amount of Performance Option.





 



    	 



    	 



    

 


2.          Duration
of Option. Except as otherwise provided herein, this option may be exercised for three (3) months after you terminate employment
with the Company, provided, however in the event your termination of employment is due to your death or disability, the Option
may be exercised for one year following such event. In no case, however, may the Option be exercised after July 31, 2024.


 


3.          Exercise
of Option.


 


(a)          Right
to Exercise. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in Section 1.


 


(b)          Method
of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice, in the form attached as Exhibit A (the "Exercise
Notice"), which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of shares of Common Stock in respect of which
the Option is being exercised (the "Exercised Shares"), and such other representations and agreements as may be required
by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be completed by you and delivered to the Corporate
Secretary. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate exercise price as to all Exercised Shares. This
Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by such aggregate
exercise price.


 


No shares of Common Stock shall be issued pursuant
to the exercise of this Option unless such issuance and exercise comply with applicable laws. Assuming such compliance, for income
tax purposes the exercised Shares shall be considered transferred to you on the date the Option is exercised with respect to such
Exercised Shares.


 


4.          Method
of Payment. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at your election:


 


(a)          cash;


 


(b)          check;


 


(c)          consideration
received by the Company under a cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan; or


 


(d)          surrender
of other shares of Common Stock which (i) in the case of shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of an option, have been
owned by you for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, AND (ii) have a fair market value on the date of surrender
equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Exercised Shares.

Further, I understand that, as a result of
this exercise of rights, I will recognize income in an amount equal to the amount by which the fair market value of the shares
of Common Stock exceeds the exercise price. I agree to report such income in accordance with then applicable law and to cooperate
with the Company in establishing the withholding and corresponding deduction to the Company for its income tax purposes.


 


I agree to provide to the Company such additional
documents or information as may be required pursuant to the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan.
