	4.	 FREEDOM TO TAKE UP EMPLOYMENT WITH THE COMPANY 

 

	4.1	 You warrant and represent that you will not, by entering into this agreement or performing any of your duties
for the Company, be in breach of any other agreement, contract or obligation binding on you. 

  

	5.	 PERIOD OF CONTINUOUS EMPLOYMENT 

We agree that your continuous employment will be from 9th September 2013. 

 

	6.	 PLACE OF WORK 

 

	6.1	 Your normal place of work will be the Company’s premises at Haredown Estate Office, Great Bedwyn,
Marlborough, Wiltshire SN8 3ND. 

  

	6.2	 You shall be required to travel to and work from such places within or outside the United Kingdom for such
periods as the Company may reasonably require for the proper and efficient performance of your duties. 

  

	7.	 SALARY AND POTENTIAL BONUS PLAN 

 

	7.1	 Salary: You will be paid a basic salary at the rate of $244,180.60 USD per annum, which shall be subject
to deductions for income tax, employee’s national insurance contributions and any other deductions required by law. This figure is pro-rata based on your hours in section 10. Your salary will accrue on a day-to-day basis and will be payable monthly in arrears on or about the 25th day of each month. Your salary is paid in
respect of your duties both for the Company and any Group Company for whom you are required to work. 

  
 3 

	7.2	 Your monthly salary will be converted from USD to GBP each month using the rate shown on the website
“oanda.com” at the point that payroll is finalised each month. 

  

	7.3	 Your salary will be reviewed by the Company once each calendar year, provided that there shall be no obligation
on the Company to increase your salary as a result of any such review. 

  

	7.4	 Bonus Plan: You shall be eligible to receive an annual performance bonus of up to 50% of your base
salary, provided you meet the targets established for the applicable year and provided you are employed with the Company on the date such bonus is paid. Your eligibility to receive any bonus under any such plan that may be introduced will be subject
to the terms and conditions of the applicable plan in force from time to time and the successful achievement by you and/or the Company of any targets or objectives determined by the Company for each year. Whether each target or objective has been
successfully completed, whether to pay any bonus and, if so, the amount of any bonus payment would be matters within the absolute discretion of the Board. You agree that the terms, conditions and rules applicable to the bonus plan may be varied from
time to time in the absolute discretion of the Company and you acknowledge that the targets and objectives are likely to vary and become progressively more demanding from year to year. The fact that any bonus payment is made to you in one year will
not be a guarantee that any bonus payments will be awarded to you in any subsequent years. The bonus plan is intended to incentivise you to remain in the employment of the Company, and the payment of the bonus is conditional on your being in the
employment of the Company and not having given or been given notice of termination of employment on the day the bonus payment would otherwise have been due for payment to you. All bonus payments made under any the bonus plan shall be subject to
deductions for income tax, employee’s national insurance contributions and any other withholdings required by the applicable law. Any such bonuses paid to you by the Company shall not be pensionable and shall not therefore give rise to you
being entitled to any additional Company pension contributions. 

  

	8.	 EXPENSES 

  

	8.1	 You will be reimbursed all
out-of-pocket expenses reasonably and properly incurred by you solely on the business of the Company or any Group Company provided you: 

 

	 	(a)	 comply with any expenses policy of the Company in force from time to time; 

 

	 	(b)	 produce to the Company such receipts or other evidence of actual payment of the expenses concerned as the
Company reasonably requires; and 

  

	 	(c)	 submit all expense claims for any such expenses within three months of incurring the expenditure.

  

	9.	 PENSIONS AND OTHER BENEFITS 

 

	9.1	 Pension: You shall be entitled to join the Rockley pension scheme established by the Company for
employees at your level (the “Plan”), subject at all times to the rules of the Plan in force from time to time (which the Company shall be entitled to vary from time to time at its absolute discretion). There is no contracting out
certificate in force in relation to your employment. 

  
 4 

	9.2	 Employee Benefits: The Company provides employee benefit plans for employees operating at your level of
status and seniority. You will be invited to participate in such plans, subject to: (a) your meeting any conditions of eligibility on an on-going basis; (b) the rules, terms and conditions of the
applicable plan(s) (as amended from time to time); and (c) the Company being able to secure cover for you (or your family members, if applicable) at rates which are acceptable to the Company. The Company reserves the right (at any time) in its
absolute discretion to: (a) withdraw any or all of the plans that may have been put in place or to withdraw your participation in any such plan(s); (b) vary any plan, the insurers or underwriters providing the plan benefits and/or the rules,
terms and conditions applicable to any such plan, regardless of whether the varied plan, insurers, underwriters or rules, terms and conditions provide equivalent benefits; and/or (c) vary the level of cover/benefits provided by any such plan
that is put in place. You acknowledge that each insurance scheme that may be put in place will include detailed terms and conditions relating to your entitlement to the applicable benefits under any given circumstances, the level of cover and the
cessation of the benefits. You are advised to obtain and review a copy of the terms and conditions of the employee benefit plan and relevant insurance scheme, which will be available from the Company’s Human Resources Department.

  

	9.3	 You acknowledge and agree that you shall not be entitled to any benefits under any employee benefit plan which
is underwritten by an insurance policy put in place by the Company unless the claim is admitted by the insurer and the benefits are paid by the relevant insurance provider in full and that the Company shall have no obligation to take any legal
action against any insurance provider in order to secure the admission of any claim or the payment of any benefits. Nothing in this agreement or in the rules, terms and conditions of any employee benefit plan or insurance policy shall give rise to
any express or implied limitations on the right of the Company to terminate your employment at any time in accordance with clause 6 or clause 21 of this agreement and the Company shall be entitled to terminate your employment at any time even if
this results in the cessation of any cover or benefits under any employee benefit plan. You shall not have any express or implied right to receive any benefits or to the continuation of benefits following the termination of your employment.

  

	9.4	 Options: If applicable, your Rockley Photonics Ltd Stock Options, as previously granted will continue to
vest. 

  

	9.5	 In no circumstances shall you be entitled upon the termination of your employment with the Company to any
compensation for any loss of any right or benefit or prospective right or benefit under the Option Documentation or in respect of any Option, which right or benefit you might have enjoyed if it were not for the termination of your employment
(including, without limitation, the lapse of the Option (or part thereof held by you) by reason of the termination of this agreement or your employment (whether or not such termination is lawful) or your ceasing to be employed by the Company or any
Group Company), and regardless whether such compensation is claimed by way of damages for breach of contract or otherwise. You hereby waive all and any rights you have or may have in the future to any compensation or damages in consequence of the
termination of your employment under this agreement or otherwise for any reason whatsoever (including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any termination of this agreement by the Company in breach of contract) insofar as those
rights arise, or may arise, from your ceasing to have rights under, or be entitled to exercise any Option (or part thereof) under, the Option Documentation as a result of such termination of your employment or of this agreement or from the loss or
diminution in value of such rights or entitlements. 

  
 5 

	10.	 HOURS OF WORK 

 

	10.1	 You agree to work such hours as may be necessary for the proper and efficient performance of your duties under
this agreement and in any event not less than 28 working hours each week. In the event that the Company introduces any core working hours for employees at your level of seniority, you will be bound to work such core hours if required to do so at the
direction of the Board. 

  

	10.2	 You agree that the limit on average weekly working time set out in Regulation 4(1) of the Working Time
Regulations 1998 will not apply to you. You acknowledge that you understand that your continued employment is not in any way conditional on you agreeing to this opt out of the 48 hour limit on your average working time during each week and you may
therefore delete this clause 10.2 if you do not agree to opt out. After signing this agreement, you may opt back into the 48 hour average working week by giving the Company three months prior written notice. 

 

	11.	 HOLIDAYS 

  

	11.1	 The Company’s holiday year runs from 1 January to 31 December. You will be entitled to 25.5 working days
of paid holiday entitlement in each full holiday year, inclusive of all recognised English public holidays. You are required to take each and every recognised English public holiday that falls on one of your normal working days as part of your paid
holiday entitlement. Hence, after reserving 8 days of your annual holiday entitlement to use for public holidays, you will be left with 17.5 working days of paid holidays to take at times that are mutually convenient for you and the Company. For the
holiday year during which your employment commences or terminates, your holiday entitlement will be calculated on a pro rata basis. 

  

	11.2	 All holiday must be taken at times that are convenient to the Company having due regard to the needs of the
business of the Company or any relevant Group Company. For the avoidance of doubt Regulations 15(1) to 15(4) of the Working Time Regulations 1998 (dealing with dates when leave is taken) will not apply to your employment. 

 

	11.3	 You may carry forward up to five working days of holiday entitlement for a given holiday year to the subsequent
holiday year (with any additional accrued, but untaken, holiday entitlement lapsing at the end of the holiday year), provided that such carried over holiday entitlement must be used by 30 April in the subsequent holiday year, failing which it
shall lapse. You shall not be entitled to any payment in lieu of any holiday entitlement which lapses at any time. 

  

	11.4	 Following either party to this agreement giving notice to terminate this agreement, the Company may at its
discretion require you to take, during the notice period, some or all of any holiday entitlement which will have accrued to you by the date of termination of your employment, but which you have not yet taken. 

  
 6 

	11.5	 On the termination of your employment with the Company, the Company will: 

 

	 	(a)	 pay you in lieu of any accrued, but untaken, holiday entitlement, save that if you are dismissed for gross
misconduct, the Company shall be under no obligation to pay you holiday pay in respect of accrued but untaken holiday in excess of any minimum holiday entitlement required by statute for the year in question. Any payment in lieu of holiday
entitlement will be subject to deductions for income tax, employee’s national insurance contributions and other deductions required by law; or 

  

	 	(b)	 deduct an amount representing salary paid during holiday taken but not accrued by the date of termination of
your employment from any payments due to you from the Company (including your final salary payment or any payment in lieu of notice) or, in the event that this is insufficient, require you to repay such amount to the Company as a debt within 7 days
of the termination of your employment. 

 Any payment in lieu, deductions or repayments in respect of holiday entitlement
shall be calculated on the basis of one day’s holiday giving rise to a payment in lieu equivalent to 1/260 of your full-time equivalent annual salary. 
  

	12.	 DEDUCTIONS FROM WAGES 

Without prejudice to any other rights open to the Company, you consent to the Company deducting from any wages due to you, (including Company
sick pay and any payment in lieu of notice made to you) sums representing the amount of any outstanding loans or advances made to you by the Company, any overpayment of salary or expenses and payment made to you by mistake or through
misrepresentation. 
  

	13.	 DATA PROTECTION 

In order to keep and maintain any records relating to your employment under this agreement and in order to record and monitor attendance, it
will be necessary for the Company to record, keep and process personal data relating to you on computer and in hard copy form. Examples of personal data include: details of your disciplinary record; any grievances raised by you; the contents of your
personnel file; and any sensitive personal data held by the Company such as your religious beliefs, your ethnic or racial origin and information relating to your physical and mental health. Further, in order to pay your salary and offer you the
other benefits to which you may be entitled, the Company may also need to obtain from you details of your bank account and other financial information. To the extent that it is reasonably necessary in connection with your employment and the
Company’s responsibilities as an employer, you agree that this data may be disclosed to others, including other employees of the Company or any Group Company, the Company’s professional advisers, HM Revenue & Customs or other
taxation authority, the police and other regulatory authorities. You hereby consent to the recording, processing, use and disclosure by the Company of personal data relating to you as set out above (including the recording, processing, use and
disclosure of your sensitive personal data to the extent required by reason of your employment or by law), including the transmission of such data abroad whether the recipient is located within or outside the European Economic Area.

	14.	 SICKNESS OR INJURY 

 

	14.1	 If you are absent from work due to sickness, injury or accident you will notify a suitable member of staff of
the Company as soon as possible on each day of absence, and no later than 30 minutes after your normal start time on the relevant day, unless the Company confirms that you need not follow any such notification process with regard to any given
day(s). 

  

	14.2	 If you are absent from work for any period you will complete a self-certification form setting out the nature
of your illness or incapacity on your return to work. If your absence continues for 7 calendar days or more you agree that you will on the eighth calendar day of such absence submit a Statement of Fitness for Work to the Company and that you will
submit further Statements of Fitness for Work promptly to cover any continued period of absence. 

  

	14.3	 Subject to your compliance with the notification and certification procedures set out above, the Company will
pay your normal basic salary for 10 working days of absence due to illness, accident or injury in any period of 12 months, whether or not such days of absence are consecutive. In the event that you exhaust your Company sick pay entitlement in any
period of 12 months: 

  

	 	(a)	 you shall not be entitled to any further Company sick pay until and unless you have returned to work for a
consecutive period of not less than 3 calendar months; 

  

	 	(b)	 any further payments of enhanced Company sick pay will be made at the sole discretion of the Company; and

  

	 	(c)	 the Company will pay any statutory sick pay that may be due in accordance with the prevailing statutory sick
pay regulations. 

  

	14.4	 The Company reserves the right at all times to refuse to pay, to cease paying and/or to require you to repay
any Company sick pay in the event that: 

  

	 	(a)	 the Company is satisfied that you have misrepresented your state of health or are in any way abusing the
Company’s sick pay scheme; 

  

	 	(b)	 your absence results from an accident at work that was caused by your own negligence or misconduct at work;

  

	 	(c)	 you fail to follow the Company’s absence notification and certification rules set out above;

  

	 	(d)	 in the opinion of a doctor appointed by the Company, you are well enough to return to work or you refuse to
promptly attend any appointment with or to submit to any reasonable examination by a doctor appointed by the Company; 

  

	 	(e)	 you behave in a manner which the Company reasonably believes is likely to retard your recovery; or

  
 8 

	 	(f)	 you have been notified in good faith of a requirement to attend a formal disciplinary hearing to discuss any
alleged misconduct or poor performance on your part. 

  

	14.5	 You agree that, in the event that (and with effect from the date) any benefits become payable to you under any
permanent health insurance or income protection scheme introduced by the Company at any time: 

  

	 	(a)	 you shall cease to be entitled to any salary, Company sick pay, other remuneration (save for any statutory sick
pay due by law and any benefits paid by the insurer under the income protection scheme), car allowance, other allowances, bonuses, commission, pension contributions, life assurance, private medical insurance cover, stock options grants, share
awards, incentives, or other employee benefits; and 

  

	 	(b)	 the Company shall cease to have any obligation to hold you out as holding any particular office or post in the
Company and the Company shall be entitled to appoint someone to undertake your role and duties. 

  

	14.6	 Failure to comply with the certification requirements set out above may result in your forfeiting your
entitlement to be paid during periods of absence and in your facing disciplinary action. 

  

	14.7	 Company sick pay paid to you at the discretion of the Company at any time shall include any statutory sick pay
payable to you under the then prevailing rules of the statutory sick pay scheme. The Company may deduct from Company sick pay an amount or amounts equal to any state sickness benefit to which you are entitled. 

 

	14.8	 The Company reserves the right to require you to undergo a medical examination by the Company’s doctor or
an independent medical practitioner in the event that you are unable to carry out your normal duties for the Company or are absent from work due to illness, accident or injury for not less than one month and you agree that the doctor or independent
medical practitioner may disclose to the Company the results of the examination and discuss with the Company and its professional advisers any matters arising from the examination as might impair you from properly discharging your duties. You also
authorise your own doctor to provide the Company’s doctor and/or independent medical practitioner with any relevant extracts from your medical notes. This clause is without prejudice to your statutory rights, including your rights under the
Access to Medical Reports Act 1988. 

  

	14.9	 If any period of absence due to sickness, injury or accident is or appears to be occasioned by any actionable
negligence, nuisance or breach of any statutory duty on the part of a third party in respect of which damages are or may be recoverable, you shall: 

  

	 	(a)	 immediately notify the Company of that fact and of any claim, compromise, settlement or judgment made or
awarded in connection with it and all further particulars that the Company may reasonably require; and 

  

	 	(b)	 be required to repay to the Company all sick pay paid to you by the Company in respect of the relevant period
of absence, provided that the sum to be repaid shall be limited to that part of any damages or compensation recovered by you relating to your loss of earnings for the period of the absence.

notice due to you under clause 20.1 of this agreement.. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this clause 20.4 shall give you any right to receive such a payment in lieu of notice. In the event that the Company fails to make such a payment in lieu
of notice to you within 21 calendar days of the Termination Date (and clause 20.3 is not applicable), the termination shall constitute a breach of contract and you agree to take all reasonable steps to mitigate your losses. If paid, the payment in
lieu of notice shall be subject to deductions for income tax, employee’s national insurance contributions and any other deductions required by law or permitted to be made under this agreement. 

 

	20.5	 You agree that, on the termination of your employment, you will:

separate and independent covenant. If any restriction is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, it is intended and understood by the parties that such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect the remaining

each Group Company and with the intention that the Company and/or any Group Company will be entitled to seek the protection of and enforce each of its restrictions directly against you. If requested to do so by the Company, you will at any time
enter into like restrictions as those contained in this clause 21 (mutatis mutandis) with any other Group Company.

 Exhibit 10.28 

[Rockley Letter Head] 
 [Date], 2021 

Andrew Rickman 
 [address] 

Re: Post-Business Combination Equity 
 Dear Andrew, 

As you know, Rockley Photonics Limited (the “Company”) and Rockley Photonics Holdings Limited (“Holdings”) have entered into a Business
Combination Agreement, dated as of March 19, 2021 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), with SC Health Corporation and Rockley Mergersub Limited, pursuant to which, upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated therein (the
“Closing”), among other things, the Company will become a subsidiary of Holdings. In connection with the Closing, it is also expected that the Company and you will amend your employment agreement with the Company dated April 1, 2020
(as amended, your “Employment Agreement”). 
 This letter confirms that, in connection with the Closing, subject to approval by the Board of
Directors of Holdings (the “Holdings Board”), and conditioned upon the filing of a Form S-8 registration statement by Holdings with respect to the Holdings 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock
Incentive Plan”), you will be granted a combination of (i) stock options to purchase shares of Holdings common stock at a price equal to such stock’s fair market value on the date of grant and/or (ii) restricted stock units for
shares of Holdings common stock having an aggregate fair value determined at the Closing (or at grant) equal to $5 million. The equity awards shall be subject to the Stock Incentive Plan and such additional terms and conditions, including
time-based quarterly vesting over four (4) years following the Closing subject to your continued employment, as shall be set forth in the applicable equity award agreement approved by the Holdings Board. 

In addition, in the event that the Company and Holdings consider that your Employment Agreement has been terminated by (a) the Company for a reason other
than for Cause or (b) lawfully by you for Good Reason (as each is defined in your Employment Agreement), in each case on or within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan), the above
mentioned equity award(s) will vest in full, provided you execute a Severance Agreement and Release of Claims relating to your employment and its termination, in a form agreed with the Company, no later than sixty (60) days after the effective
date of termination of employment. 
 This letter agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of England and Wales. The
parties irrevocably agree that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this letter. 

This letter agreement may be executed in a number of counterparts, and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy
of this letter agreement.
