Inducement

Restricted
Stock Unit Award Agreement


 


Pursuant
to the Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and this Restricted Stock Unit Award
Agreement (the “Agreement”), ArTara Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) has
awarded you (“Participant”) a Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) pursuant
to the Company’s Inducement Plan (the “Plan”) for the number of Restricted Stock Units/shares
indicated in the Grant Notice. The Award is granted in compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(c)(4) as a material inducement
to you entering into employment with the Company. Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement or the Grant Notice
shall have the same meanings given to them in the Plan. The terms of your Award, in addition to those set forth in the Grant Notice,
are as follows.


 


1.
Grant of the Award. This Award represents the right to be issued on a future
date one (1) share of Common Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit that vests on the applicable vesting date(s) (subject to any
adjustment under Section 3 below) as indicated in the Grant Notice. As of the Date of Grant, the Company will credit to a bookkeeping
account maintained by the Company for your benefit (the “Account”) the number of Restricted Stock Units/shares
of Common Stock subject to the Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company reserves the right to issue you the cash equivalent
of Common Stock, in part or in full satisfaction of the delivery of Common Stock in connection with the vesting of the Restricted
Stock Units, and, to the extent applicable, references in this Agreement and the Grant Notice to Common Stock issuable in connection
with your Restricted Stock Units will include the potential issuance of its cash equivalent pursuant to such right. This Award
was granted in consideration of your services to the Company.


 


2.
Vesting. Subject to the limitations contained herein, your Award will vest,
if at all, in accordance with the vesting schedule provided in the Grant Notice. Vesting will cease upon the termination of your
Continuous Service and the Restricted Stock Units credited to the Account that were not vested on the date of such termination
will be forfeited at no cost to the Company and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such Award or the shares
of Common Stock to be issued in respect of such portion of the Award.


 


3.
Number of Shares. The number of Restricted Stock Units subject to your Award
may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization Adjustments, as provided in the Plan. Any additional Restricted Stock Units,
shares, cash or other property that becomes subject to the Award pursuant to this Section 3, if any, shall be subject, in a manner
determined by the Board, to the same forfeiture restrictions, restrictions on transferability, and time and manner of delivery
as applicable to the other Restricted Stock Units and shares covered by your Award. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section
3, no fractional shares or rights for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be created pursuant to this Section 3. Any fraction
of a share will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.


 


4.
Securities Law Compliance. You may not be issued any Common Stock under your
Award unless the shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units are either (i) then registered under the Securities
Act, or (ii) the Company has determined that such issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act. Your Award must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing the Award, and you shall not receive such
Common Stock if the Company determines that such receipt would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations.


 






    3


     


    

 


5.
Transfer Restrictions. Prior to the time that shares of Common Stock have been
delivered to you, you may not transfer, pledge, sell or otherwise dispose of this Award or the shares issuable in respect of your
Award, except as expressly provided in this Section 5. For example, you may not use shares that may be issued in respect of your
Restricted Stock Units as security for a loan. The restrictions on transfer set forth herein will lapse upon delivery to you of
shares in respect of your vested Restricted Stock Units.


 


(a)
Death. Your Award is transferable by will and by the laws of descent and distribution. At your death, vesting of your Award
will cease and your executor or administrator of your estate shall be entitled to receive, on behalf of your estate, any Common
Stock or other consideration that vested but was not issued before your death.


 


(b)
Domestic Relations Orders. Upon receiving written permission from the Board or its duly authorized designee, and provided
that you and the designated transferee enter into transfer and other agreements required by the Company, you may transfer your
right to receive the distribution of Common Stock or other consideration hereunder, pursuant to a domestic relations order, marital
settlement agreement or other divorce or separation instrument as permitted by applicable law that contains the information required
by the Company to effectuate the transfer. You are encouraged to discuss the proposed terms of any division of this Award with
the Company General Counsel prior to finalizing the domestic relations order or marital settlement agreement to verify that you
may make such transfer, and if so, to help ensure the required information is contained within the domestic relations order or
marital settlement agreement.


 


6.
Date of Issuance.


 


(a)
The issuance of shares in respect of the Restricted Stock Units is intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)
and will be construed and administered in such a manner. Subject to the satisfaction of the Withholding Obligation set forth in
Section 11 of this Agreement, in the event one or more Restricted Stock Units vests, the Company shall issue to you one (1) share
of Common Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit that vests on the applicable vesting date(s) (subject to any adjustment under Section
3 above, and subject to any different provisions in the Grant Notice). Each issuance date determined by this paragraph is referred
to as an “Original Issuance Date”.


 


(b)
If the Original Issuance Date falls on a date that is not a business day, delivery shall instead occur on the next following
business day. In addition, if:


 


(i)
the Original Issuance Date does not occur (1) during an “open window period” applicable to you, as determined
by the Company in accordance with the Company’s then-effective policy on trading in Company securities, or (2) on a date
when you are otherwise permitted to sell shares of Common Stock on an established stock exchange or stock market (including but
not limited to under a previously established written trading plan that meets the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange
Act and was entered into in compliance with the Company's policies (a “10b5-1 Arrangement”)), and


 


(ii) either
(1) a Withholding Obligation does not apply, or (2) the Company decides, prior to the Original Issuance Date, (A) not to
satisfy the Withholding Obligation by withholding shares of Common Stock from the shares otherwise due, on the Original
Issuance Date, to you under this Award, and (B) not to permit you to enter into a “same day sale” commitment with
a broker-dealer pursuant to Section 11 of this Agreement (including but not limited to a commitment under a 10b5-1
Arrangement) and (C) not to permit you to pay your Withholding Obligation in cash, then the shares that would
otherwise be issued to you on the Original Issuance Date will not be delivered on such Original Issuance Date and will
instead be delivered on the first business day when you are not prohibited from selling shares of the Company’s Common
Stock in the open public market, but in no event later than December 31 of the calendar year in which the Original Issuance
Date occurs (that is, the last day of your taxable year in which the Original Issuance Date occurs), or, if and only
if permitted in a manner that complies with Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), no later than the date that is
the 15th day of the third calendar month of the applicable year following the year in which the shares of Common Stock under
this Award are no longer subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.409A-1(d).


 


(c)
The form of delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) shall be determined by
the Company.




 



    4


     


    

 


7.
Dividends. You shall receive no benefit or adjustment to your Award with respect
to any cash dividend, stock dividend or other distribution that does not result from a Capitalization Adjustment; provided, however,
that this sentence will not apply with respect to any shares of Common Stock that are delivered to you in connection with your
Award after such shares have been delivered to you.


 


8.
Restrictive Legends. The shares of Common Stock issued in respect of your Award
shall be endorsed with appropriate legends as determined by the Company.


 


9.
Execution of Documents. You hereby acknowledge and agree that the manner selected
by the Company by which you indicate your consent to your Grant Notice is also deemed to be your execution of your Grant Notice
and of this Agreement. You further agree that such manner of indicating consent may be relied upon as your signature for establishing
your execution of any documents to be executed in the future in connection with your Award.


 


10.
Award not a Service Contract.


 


(a)
Nothing in this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the vesting of your Award or the issuance of the shares in respect
of your Award), the Plan or any covenant of good faith and fair dealing that may be found implicit in this Agreement or the Plan
shall: (i) confer upon you any right to continue in the employ or service of, or affiliation with, the Company or an Affiliate;
(ii) constitute any promise or commitment by the Company or an Affiliate regarding the fact or nature of future positions, future
work assignments, future compensation or any other term or condition of employment or affiliation; (iii) confer any right or benefit
under this Agreement or the Plan unless such right or benefit has specifically accrued under the terms of this Agreement or Plan;
or (iv) deprive the Company of the right to terminate you at will and without regard to any future vesting opportunity that you
may have.


 


(b)
By accepting this Award, you acknowledge and agree that the right to continue vesting in the Award pursuant to the vesting
schedule provided in the Grant Notice may not be earned unless (in addition to any other conditions described in the Grant Notice
and this Agreement) you continue as an employee, director or consultant at the will of the Company and affiliate, as applicable
(not through the act of being hired, being granted this Award or any other award or benefit) and that the Company has the right
to reorganize, sell, spin-out or otherwise restructure one or more of its businesses or Affiliates at any time or from time to
time, as it deems appropriate (a “reorganization”). You acknowledge and agree that such a reorganization
could result in the termination of your Continuous Service, or the termination of Affiliate status of your employer and the loss
of benefits available to you under this Agreement, including but not limited to, the termination of the right to continue vesting
in the Award. You further acknowledge and agree that this Agreement, the Plan, the transactions contemplated hereunder and the
vesting schedule set forth herein or any covenant of good faith and fair dealing that may be found implicit in any of them do
not constitute an express or implied promise of continued engagement as an employee or consultant for the term of this Agreement,
for any period, or at all, and shall not interfere in any way with the Company’s right to terminate your Continuous Service
at any time, with or without your cause or notice, or to conduct a reorganization.


 






    5


     


    

 


11.
Withholding Obligation.


 


(a)
On each vesting date, and on or before the time you receive a distribution of the shares of Common Stock in respect of your
Restricted Stock Units, and at any other time as reasonably requested by the Company in accordance with applicable tax laws, you
hereby authorize any required withholding from the Common Stock issuable to you and/or otherwise agree to make adequate provision,
including in cash, for any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company
or any Affiliate that arise in connection with your Award (the “Withholding Obligation”).


 


(b)
By accepting this Award, you acknowledge and agree that the Company or any Affiliate may, in its sole discretion, satisfy
all or any portion of the Withholding Obligation relating to your Restricted Stock Units by any of the following means or by a
combination of such means: (i) causing you to pay any portion of the Withholding Obligation in cash; (ii) withholding from any
compensation otherwise payable to you by the Company; (iii) withholding shares of Common Stock from the shares of Common Stock
issued or otherwise issuable to you in connection with the Award with a Fair Market Value (measured as of the date shares of Common
Stock are issued pursuant to Section 6) equal to the amount of such Withholding Obligation; provided, however, that the number
of such shares of Common Stock so withheld will not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Withholding Obligation using the
maximum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable
to supplemental taxable income; and provided, further, that to the extent necessary to qualify for an exemption from application
of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, if applicable, such share withholding procedure will be subject to the express prior approval
of the Board or the Company’s Compensation Committee; and/or (iv) permitting or requiring you to enter into a “same
day sale” commitment, if applicable, with a broker-dealer that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority
(a “FINRA Dealer”), pursuant to this authorization and without further consent, whereby you irrevocably
elect to sell a portion of the shares to be delivered in connection with your Restricted Stock Units to satisfy the Withholding
Obligation and whereby the FINRA Dealer irrevocably commits to forward the proceeds necessary to satisfy the Withholding Obligation
directly to the Company and/or its Affiliates. Unless the Withholding Obligation is satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation
to deliver to you any Common Stock or any other consideration pursuant to this Award.


 


(c)
In the event the Withholding Obligation arises prior to the delivery to you of Common Stock or it is determined after the
delivery of Common Stock to you that the amount of the Withholding Obligation was greater than the amount withheld by the Company,
you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.


 


12.
Tax Consequences. The Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax
consequences to you of this Award and shall not be liable to you for any adverse tax consequences to you arising in connection
with this Award. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, financial and/or legal advisors regarding the tax
consequences of this Award and by signing the Grant Notice, you have agreed that you have done so or knowingly and voluntarily
declined to do so. You understand that you (and not the Company) shall be responsible for your own tax liability that may arise
as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 






    6


     


    

 


13.
Unsecured Obligation. Your Award is unfunded, and as a holder of a vested Award,
you shall be considered an unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to the Company’s obligation, if any, to issue
shares or other property pursuant to this Agreement. You shall not have voting or any other rights as a stockholder of the Company
with respect to the shares to be issued pursuant to this Agreement until such shares are issued to you pursuant to Section 6 of
this Agreement. Upon such issuance, you will obtain full voting and other rights as a stockholder of the Company. Nothing contained
in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind
or a fiduciary relationship between you and the Company or any other person.


 


14.
Notices. Any notice or request required or permitted hereunder shall be given
in writing (including electronically) and will be deemed effectively given upon receipt
or, in the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail,
postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide
to deliver any documents related to participation in the Plan and this Award by electronic means or to request your consent to
participate in the Plan by electronic means. By accepting this Award, you consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery
and to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third
party designated by the Company.


 


15.
Headings. The headings of the Sections in this Agreement are inserted for convenience
only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part of this Agreement or to affect the meaning of this Agreement.


 


16.
Miscellaneous.


 


(a)
The rights and obligations of the Company under your Award shall be transferable by the Company to any one or more persons
or entities, and all covenants and agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Company’s
successors and assigns.


 


(b)
You agree upon request to execute any further documents or instruments necessary or desirable in the sole determination of
the Company to carry out the purposes or intent of your Award.


 


(c)
You acknowledge and agree that you have reviewed your Award in its entirety, have had an opportunity to obtain the advice
of counsel prior to executing and accepting your Award and fully understand all provisions of your Award.


 


(d)
This Agreement shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental
agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.


 


(e)
All obligations of the Company under the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether
the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.


 


17.
Governing Plan Document. Your Award is subject to all the provisions of the
Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of your Award, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments,
rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. Your Award (and any compensation
paid or shares issued under your Award) is subject to recoupment in accordance with The Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act and any implementing regulations thereunder, any clawback policy adopted by the Company and any compensation
recovery policy otherwise required by applicable law. No recovery of compensation under such a clawback policy will be an event
giving rise to a right to voluntarily terminate employment upon a resignation for “good reason,” or for a “constructive
termination” or any similar term under any plan of or agreement with the Company.


 






    7


     


    

 


18.
Effect on Other Employee Benefit Plans. The value of the Award subject to this
Agreement shall not be included as compensation, earnings, salaries, or other similar terms used when calculating benefits under
any employee benefit plan (other than the Plan) sponsored by the Company or any Affiliate except as such plan otherwise expressly
provides. The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any or all of the employee benefit plans of
the Company or any Affiliate.


 


19.
Severability. If all or any part
of this Agreement or the Plan is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness
or invalidity shall not invalidate any portion of this Agreement or the Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid. Any Section
of this Agreement (or part of such a Section) so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner
which will give effect to the terms of such Section or part of a Section to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful
and valid.


 


20.
Other Documents. You hereby acknowledge receipt or the right to receive a document
providing the information required by Rule 428(b)(1) promulgated under the Securities Act. In addition, you acknowledge receipt
of the Company’s policy permitting certain individuals to sell shares only during certain "window" periods and
the Company's insider trading policy, in effect from time to time.


 


21.
Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified, amended or terminated except
by an instrument in writing, signed by you and by a duly authorized representative of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
this Agreement may be amended solely by the Board by a writing which specifically states that it is amending this Agreement, so
long as a copy of such amendment is delivered to you, and provided that, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, no
such amendment materially adversely affecting your rights hereunder may be made without your written consent. Without limiting
the foregoing, the Board reserves the right to change, by written notice to you, the provisions of this Agreement in any way it
may deem necessary or advisable to carry out the purpose of the Award as a result of any change in applicable laws or regulations
or any future law, regulation, ruling, or judicial decision, provided that any such change shall be applicable only to rights
relating to that portion of the Award which is then subject to restrictions as provided herein.


 


22.
Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. This Award is intended to be
exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code, including but not limited to by reason of complying with the “short-term
deferral” rule set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted accordingly.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that the Award fails to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral
rule and is otherwise not exempt from, and determined to be deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, this Award
shall comply with Section 409A to the extent necessary to avoid adverse personal tax consequences and any ambiguities herein shall
be interpreted accordingly. If it is determined that the Award is deferred compensation subject to Section 409A and you are a
“Specified Employee” (within the meaning set forth in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of your
“Separation from Service” (as defined in Section 409A), then the issuance of any shares that would otherwise be made
upon the date of your Separation from Service or within the first six (6) months thereafter will not be made on the originally
scheduled date(s) and will instead be issued in a lump sum on the date that is six (6) months and one day after the date of the
Separation from Service, with the balance of the shares issued thereafter in accordance with the original vesting and issuance
schedule set forth above, but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the shares is necessary to avoid the imposition of
adverse taxation on you in respect of the shares under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of shares that vests is intended
to constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).
