ARTICLE V. 
 TERMINATION

 5.1 Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall have the
right to immediately terminate the employment of Executive for “Cause” if the Chief Executive Officer determines that Executive: 
  

	 	(a)	willfully or materially breaches this Agreement or any other written agreement with the Company; 

  

	 	(b)	willfully violates or fails to comply with any reasonable rule or policy governing Executive’s performance or behavior, including, without limitation, the prohibition against the use of illegal drugs and the use of
alcohol in a way that is materially harmful to the Company’s finances, general reputation, or other legitimate business interest; 

  

	 	(c)	willfully violates or fails to comply with any reasonable instruction of the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board, provided that such instruction is not in violation of this Agreement or any other written agreement
between the Company and Executive and is legal; 

  

	 	(d)	willfully engages in dishonesty, illegal conduct, or misconduct that is materially harmful to the Company’s finances, general reputation, or other legitimate business interest, as determined by the Board in its
sole discretion; 

  

	 	(e)	willfully engages in fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement, whether or not related to Executive’s employment with the Company; 

 

	 	(f)	willfully and without authorization discloses Confidential Information; or 

  

	 	(g)	is convicted of or pleads guilty to any criminal charge or indictment, the nature of which the Board determines, in its sole discretion, may have a detrimental impact on the general reputation of the Company, its
finances, or other legitimate business interest. 

 An act or failure to act is considered “willful” if done or not
done with an absence of good faith and without a reasonable belief that the act or failure to act was in the best interests of the Company. In the event of termination for “Cause,” Executive shall not be entitled to any severance payments
or any other payments under this Agreement except as may be required by law, but shall receive Executive’s Base Salary earned through the date of termination, any unused vacation or other time off earned through the date of termination,
reimbursement for 

  
 - 7 - 

 
reasonable expenses incurred by Executive in the discharge of Executive’s duties before termination so long as Executive provides evidence thereof, and any additional benefits to which
Executive is entitled under any applicable benefit plan of the Company that are not otherwise provided by this Agreement (collectively, the “Accrued Obligations”). Executive shall not be terminated for Cause unless and until Executive has
been offered an opportunity to explain the circumstances forming the basis for the Company’s determination of Cause to the Chief Executive Officer except where the Chief Executive Officer determines that doing so would be futile. 

5.2 Termination for Any Other Reason. Executive’s employment shall terminate on the occurrence of any one of the following events:

  

	 	(a)	the occurrence of circumstances that make it impossible or impracticable for the business of the Company to be continued; 

  

	 	(b)	Executive fails to perform the duties that Executive is reasonably expected to perform under this Agreement to the Company’s satisfaction after notice and opportunity to cure; 

 

	 	(c)	Executive’s death; or 

  

	 	(d)	Executive’s Disability unless waived by the Company, where Disability has the meaning set forth in any Company-sponsored disability insurance policy. 

In the event of termination of employment for any reason set forth in Section 5.2(b), (c) or (d) above, no further compensation
or benefits other than the Accrued Obligations set forth in Section 5.1 of this Agreement and any applicable insurance benefits in accordance with any Company-sponsored insurance policy shall be paid to Executive. Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall have the right to terminate the employment of Executive for any reason, including reasons other than those described in Sections 5.1 or 5.2. In the event of termination by the Company
for any reason not constituting Cause, not described in Section 5.2, and not in connection with a Change in Control, Executive shall be entitled to the severance payments described in Section 5.5. In the event of a Change in Control, the
Change in Control Agreement, as amended, shall supersede this Agreement and any understandings between the parties with respect to termination upon such Change in Control and any compensation paid to Executive upon such termination. 

5.3 Termination by Executive for Good Reason. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive shall
have the right to terminate Executive’s employment at any time for “Good Reason.” “Good Reason” exists if any of the following events or conditions occurs: 

 

	 	(a)	 any material reduction in Executive’s Base Salary unless consistent with the same percentage reduction to
the base salaries for other similarly situated senior executives of the Company; or any removal of Executive from the position of, or failure to reappoint or reelect Executive as Vice President and Chief Human

  
 - 8 - 

	 	
Resource Officer of the Company; 

  

	 	(b)	any material breach by the Company of any provision of this Agreement; 

  

	 	(c)	any purported termination of Executive’s employment which is not made pursuant to a Notice of Termination satisfying the requirements Section 5.6 of this Agreement; or 

 

	 	(d)	the relocation of the Company’s principal executive offices to a location more than 50 miles from Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota or the Company requiring Executive to be based more than 50 miles from the
Company’s principal executive offices except for requiring travel on the Company’s business. 

 Prior to any
termination for “Good Reason,” Executive must give notice to the Chief Executive Officer of the existence of the condition for “Good Reason” and intent to terminate employment within 90 days of the occurrence of the condition and
the Company shall not have eliminated the condition within 30 days thereafter. In the event of termination of employment by Executive for Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to the severance payments described in Section 5.5 of this
Agreement subject to the limitations contained in Section 5.5. 
 5.4 Termination by Executive for Any Other Reason. Executive
shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment under this Agreement for any reason. In the event of termination by Executive for any reason not constituting a termination for Good Reason, Executive shall not be entitled to any
severance payment or any other payments under this Agreement except the Accrued Obligations described in Section 5.1 of this Agreement. 

5.5 Severance Payments. In the event of termination by the Company for any reason not constituting Cause or described in
Section 5.2, and not in connection with a Change in Control, or, in the event that Executive terminates Executive’s employment for Good Reason, the Company shall pay to Executive the Accrued Obligations described in Section 5.1 of
this Agreement, and, in lieu of any further compensation and benefits under this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits during the 12-month period beginning on the date of such termination of Executive’s employment
(the “Severance Period”), subject to the limitations contained in this Section 5.5. 
  

	 	(a)	 Severance Pay. During the Severance Period, the Company shall pay to Executive an amount equal to
Executive’s average annual Base Salary (exclusive of any bonuses, incentive compensation or income associated with benefits, restricted stock, or stock options of Executive) over the three year period immediately preceding the date of
termination or such lesser period as Executive has been employed by the Company; provided that only the amount permitted by Section 409A of the Code, inclusive of Section 401(a)(17) of the Code, shall be paid in equal portions over
the course of the first six months of the Severance Period in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, and the balance shall be paid in equal portions over the course of the remaining six months of the Severance Period in
accordance with the Company’s regular 

  
 - 9 - 

	 	
payroll practices. Each installment of severance pay shall be considered a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. 

 

	 	(b)	Benefits During Severance Period. During the Severance Period, the Company shall continue to pay to Executive an amount of cash equal to the Company’s portion of the premium payable under the Company’s
group health and life insurance plans for health (i.e., medical, dental and vision benefits) and life insurance benefits provided to the Executive and to those family members covered through Executive under the Company’s group health and life
insurance plans immediately prior to the date of termination of employment; provided that if during the Severance Period another employer provides Executive any benefits that are substantially comparable to any of the benefits provided by the
Company, the Company’s obligations with respect to such comparable benefits shall cease. 

  

	 	(c)	Conditions to Severance Pay. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive shall be entitled to the severance pay and benefits described in this Section 5.5 only if
(i) on or within 45 days following Executive’s last date of employment Executive signs and does not rescind a release agreement in a form prepared by the Company and given to Executive within 10 days after the date of termination, to
include but not be limited to a comprehensive release of all legal claims by Executive in favor of the Company, which release shall be in the form customarily used by the Company for senior executives, (ii) Executive fully complies with

forth in Sections 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, and 4.5, he will not be entitled to the severance pay or benefits described in this Section 5.5 and will be obligated to return any severance pay and/or benefits already received. 

5.6 Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of Executive’s employment by the Company or by Executive shall be
communicated by a Notice of Termination sent to the other party in accordance with Section 6.1. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination
provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth a summary of the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment. No purported termination of Executive’s employment which is not made
pursuant to a Notice of Termination shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement. 
 5.7 Surviving Rights. Notwithstanding the
termination of Executive’s employment, the parties shall be required to carry out any provisions which contemplate performance 

  
 - 10 - 

 
subsequent to such termination; and such termination shall not affect any liability or other obligation which shall have accrued prior to such termination, including, but not limited to, any
liability for loss or damage on account of a prior default.

Executive waives Executive’s rights, if any, to have the laws, including conflict of laws principles, of any jurisdiction other than the State of Minnesota apply to this Agreement. Any dispute arising out of or related to Executive’s
employment by the Company or arising out of or related to this Agreement, or any breach or alleged breach hereof, shall be exclusively decided by a state or federal court sitting in the State of Minnesota. Executive hereby irrevocably consents to
the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the State of Minnesota for the purposes of any action arising out of or related to Executive’s employment or this Agreement. Executive waives Executive’s right, if any,
to have any disputes between Executive and the Company arising out of or related to Executive’s employment or this Agreement decided in any jurisdiction or venue other than a state or federal court in the State of Minnesota. Executive agrees
not to assist, aid, abet, encourage, or participate in any lawsuit or action by any third party arising out of or related to Executive’s employment or this Agreement in any jurisdiction or venue other than a state or federal court in the State

benefit of and be enforceable by the Company and any successor or permitted assignee, and may be assigned by the Company to any purchaser of all or substantially all of the Company’s business or assets (by merger, sale of assets, consolidation,
acquisition of stock or otherwise) without the consent of Executive, and may otherwise be assigned by the Company only with Executive’s consent.

PLAN 
 ARTICLE 1 

PURPOSE 
 1.1.
GENERAL. The purpose of the Keryx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to promote the success, and enhance the value, of Keryx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”), by linking the
personal interests of employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company or any Affiliate (as defined below) to those of Company stockholders and by providing such persons with an incentive for outstanding performance. The Plan is
further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate, attract, and retain the services of employees, officers, directors and consultants upon whose judgment, interest, and special effort the successful conduct of the
Company’s operation is largely dependent. Accordingly, the Plan permits the grant of incentive awards from time to time to selected employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company and its Affiliates.

guaranteed, on the 91st day of such leave any Incentive Stock Option held by the Participant shall cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option. Whether military, government or
other service or other leave of absence shall constitute a termination of Continuous Service shall be determined in each case by the Committee at its discretion, and any determination by the Committee shall be final and conclusive; provided,
however, that for purposes of any Award that is subject to Code Section 409A, the determination of a leave of absence must comply with the requirements of a “bona fide leave of absence” as provided in Treas. Reg.

 3.1. EFFECTIVE DATE. Subject to the approval of the Plan by the Company’s stockholders within 12 months after the
Plan’s adoption by the Board, the Plan will become effective on the date that it is adopted by the Board (the “Effective Date”). 

3.2. TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Plan shall terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date unless earlier terminated as
provided herein. The termination of the Plan on such date shall not affect the validity of any Award outstanding on the date of termination, which shall continue to be governed by the applicable terms and conditions of this Plan. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Incentive Stock Options may be granted more than ten (10) years after the earlier of (a) adoption of this Plan by the Board, or (b) the Effective Date. 

ARTICLE 4 
 ADMINISTRATION 

4.1. COMMITTEE. The Plan shall be administered by a Committee appointed by the Board (which Committee shall consist of at
least two directors) or, at the discretion of the Board from time to time, the Plan may be administered by the Board. It is intended that at least two of the directors appointed to serve on the Committee shall be Independent Directors and that any
such members of the Committee who do not so qualify shall abstain from participating in any decision to make or administer Awards that are made to Eligible Participants who at the time of consideration for such Award (i) are persons subject to
the short-swing profit rules of 

  
 9 

 
Section 16 of the 1934 Act, or (ii) are reasonably anticipated to become Covered Employees during the term of the Award. However, the mere fact that a Committee member shall fail to
qualify as an Independent Director or shall fail to abstain from such action shall not invalidate any Award made by the Committee which Award is otherwise validly made under the Plan. The members of the Committee shall be appointed by, and may be
changed at any time and from time to time in the discretion of, the Board. Unless and until changed by the Board, the Compensation Committee of the Board is designated as the Committee to administer the Plan. The Board may reserve to itself any or
all of the authority and responsibility of the Committee under the Plan or may act as administrator of the Plan for any and all purposes. To the extent the Board has reserved any authority and responsibility or during any time that the Board is
acting as administrator of the Plan, it shall have all the powers and protections of the Committee hereunder, and any reference herein to the Committee (other than in this Section 4.1) shall include the Board. To the extent any action of the
Board under the Plan conflicts with actions taken by the Committee, the actions of the Board shall control. 
 4.2. ACTION
AND INTERPRETATIONS BY THE COMMITTEE. For purposes of administering the Plan, the Committee may from time to time adopt rules, regulations, guidelines and procedures for carrying out the provisions and purposes of the Plan and make such other
determinations, not inconsistent with the Plan, as the Committee may deem appropriate. The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Award in the manner and to the extent it deems
necessary to carry out the intent of the Plan. The Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted under the Plan, any Award Certificate and all decisions and determinations by the Committee with respect to the Plan are final,
binding, and conclusive on all parties. Each member of the Committee is entitled, in good faith, to rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Affiliate, the
Company’s or an Affiliate’s independent certified public accountants, Company counsel or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company or the Committee to assist in the administration of the Plan. No
member of the Committee will be liable for any good faith determination, act or omission in connection with the Plan or any Award. 

4.3. AUTHORITY OF COMMITTEE. Except as provided in Section 4.1 and 4.4 hereof, the Committee has the exclusive power,
authority and discretion to: 
 (a) Grant Awards; 

(b) Designate Participants; 
 (c)
Determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Participant;

further the objectives of the Plan. 
 Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, grants of Awards to Non-Employee Directors hereunder shall
(i) be subject to the applicable award limits set forth in Section 5.4 hereof, and (ii) be made only in accordance with the terms, conditions and parameters of a plan, program or policy for the compensation of Non-Employee Directors
as in effect from time to time that is approved and administered by a committee of the Board consisting solely of Independent Directors. The Committee may not make other discretionary grants hereunder to Non-Employee Directors. 

4.4. DELEGATION. 

(a) Administrative Duties. The Committee may delegate to one or more of its members or to one or more officers of the Company or an Affiliate
or to one or more agents or advisors such administrative duties or powers as it may deem advisable, and the Committee or any individuals to whom it has delegated duties or powers as aforesaid may employ one or more individuals to render advice with
respect to any responsibility the Committee or such individuals may have under this Plan.

and terms of Awards, to (i) designate officers and/or employees of the Company or any of its Affiliates to be recipients of Awards under the Plan, and (ii) to determine the number of such Awards to be received by any such Participants;
provided, however, that such delegation of duties and responsibilities to an officer of the Company may not be made with respect to the grant of Awards to eligible participants (a) who are subject to Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act at the
Grant Date, or (b) who as of the Grant Date are reasonably anticipated to be become Covered Employees during the term of the Award. The acts of such delegates shall be treated hereunder as acts of the Board and such delegates shall report
regularly to the Board and the Compensation Committee regarding the delegated duties and responsibilities and any Awards so granted. 

4.5. INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of the Board, or an officer of the
Company to whom authority was delegated in accordance with this Article 4 shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in
connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts
paid by him or her in settlement thereof, with the Company’s approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her, provided he or she shall give the Company an opportunity,
at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf, unless such loss, cost, liability, or 

  
 11 

 
expense is a result of his or her own willful misconduct or except as expressly provided by statute. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of
indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s charter or bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

purposes of determining the maximum number of Shares available for delivery under the Plan (and such Shares shall not be added back to the available share pool under the Plan). 

(d) The number of Shares deemed to have been delivered to a Participant upon exercise of a SAR for purposes of determining the maximum number
of Shares available for delivery under the Plan shall be the greater of (i) the number of Shares covered by the SAR (excluding for this purpose any Shares covered by the SAR which are unissued or forfeited pursuant to Section 4.4(a), and
(ii) the number of Shares actually delivered to the Participant upon exercise of the SAR.

ARTICLE 7 
 STOCK 

OPTIONS 
 7.1.
GENERAL. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants on the following terms and conditions: 
 (a) Exercise Price. The
exercise price per Share under an Option shall be determined by the Committee, provided that the exercise price for any Option (other than an Option issued as a substitute Award pursuant to Section 14.9) shall not be less than the Fair Market
Value as of the Grant Date. 
 (b) Prohibition on Repricing. Except as otherwise provided in Section 15.1, without the prior approval of
stockholders of the Company: (i) the exercise price of an Option may not be reduced, directly or indirectly, (ii) an Option may not be cancelled in exchange for cash, other Awards, or Options or SARs with an exercise or base price that is
less than the exercise price of the original Option, or otherwise, and (iii) the Company may not repurchase an Option for value (in cash or otherwise) from a Participant if the current Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the Option is lower
than the exercise price per share of the Option. 
  

  
 13 

 (c) Time and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an
Option may be exercised in whole or in part, subject to Section 7. l (e), and may include in the Award Certificate a provision that an Option that is otherwise exercisable and has an exercise price that is less than the Fair Market Value of the
Stock on the last day of its term will be automatically exercised on such final date of the term by means of a “net exercise,” thus entitling the optionee to Shares equal to the intrinsic value of the Option on such exercise date, less the
number of Shares required for tax withholding. The Committee shall also determine the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised or vested. 

(d) Payment. The Committee shall determine the methods by which the exercise price of an Option may be paid, the form of payment, and the
methods by which Shares shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants. As determined by the Committee at or after the Grant Date, payment of the exercise price of an Option may be made, in whole or in part, in the form of
(i) cash or cash equivalents, (ii) delivery (by either actual delivery or attestation) of previously-acquired Shares based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the Option is exercised, (iii) withholding of Shares from the
Option based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the Option is exercised, (iv) broker-assisted market sales, or (iv) any other “cashless exercise” arrangement. 

(e) Exercise Term. Except for Nonstatutory Options granted to Participants outside the United States, no Option granted under the Plan shall be
exercisable for more than ten years from the Grant Date. 
 (f) No Deferral Feature. No Option shall provide for any feature for the deferral
of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the exercise or disposition of the Option. 
 (g) No Dividend
Equivalents. No Option shall provide for Dividend Equivalents. 
 7.2. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. The terms of any Incentive
Stock Options granted under the Plan must comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. Without limiting the foregoing, any Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who at the Grant Date owns more than 10% of the voting power
of all classes of shares of the Company must have an exercise price per Share of not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Grant Date and an Option term of not more than five years. If all of the requirements of Section 422
of the Code (including the above) are not met, the Option shall automatically become a Nonstatutory Stock Option. 
 ARTICLE 8 

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 

8.1. GRANT OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. The Committee is authorized to grant Stock Appreciation Rights to Participants on the
following terms and conditions: 
 (a) Right to Payment. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the Participant has the right to receive, for each Share
with respect to which the SAR is being exercised, the excess, if any, of: 
 (1) The Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise;
over 
 (2) The base price of the SAR as determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Certificate, which shall not be less than the

prior approval of stockholders of the Company: (i) the base price of a SAR may not be reduced, directly or indirectly , (ii) a SAR may not be cancelled in exchange for cash, other Awards, or Options or SARs with an exercise or base price
that is less than the base price of the original SAR, or otherwise, and (iii) the Company may not repurchase a SAR for value (in cash or otherwise) from a Participant if the current Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the SAR is lower
than the base price per share of the SAR. 
 (c) Time and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which a
SAR may be exercised in whole or in part and may include in the Award Certificate a provision that a SAR that is otherwise exercisable and has a base price that is less than the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the last day of its term will be
automatically exercised on such final date of the term, thus entitling the holder to cash or Shares equal to the intrinsic value of the SAR on such exercise date, less the cash or number of Shares required for tax withholding. Except for SARs
granted to Participants outside the United States, no SAR shall be exercisable for more than ten years from the Grant Date. 
 (d) No
Deferral Feature. No SAR shall provide for any feature for the deferral of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the exercise or disposition of the SAR. 

(e) No Dividend Equivalents. No SAR shall provide for Dividend Equivalents. 

(f) Other Terms. All SARs shall be evidenced by an Award Certificate. Subject to the limitations of this Article 8, the terms, methods of

in the Award Certificate. 
 ARTICLE 9 

RESTRICTED STOCK, RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS, AND DEFERRED STOCK UNITS 

9.1. GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND STOCK UNITS. The Committee is authorized to make Awards of Restricted Stock, Restricted
Stock Units or Deferred Stock Units to Participants in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Committee. An Award of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Deferred Stock Units shall be evidenced by an
Award Certificate setting forth the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to the Award. 
 9.2. ISSUANCE AND
RESTRICTIONS. Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Deferred Stock Units shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability and other restrictions as the Committee may impose (including, for example, limitations on the right to vote
Restricted Stock or the right to receive dividends on the Restricted Stock). These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, under such circumstances, in such installments, upon the satisfaction of performance goals or
otherwise, as the Committee determines at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Certificate or any special Plan document governing an Award, a Participant shall have all of the rights of a
stockholder with respect to Restricted Stock, but none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to Restricted Stock Units or Deferred Stock Units until such time as Shares of Stock are paid in settlement of such Awards. Unless otherwise provided
in the applicable Award Certificate, Restricted Stock will be entitled to full dividend rights, and any dividends paid thereon will be paid or distributed to the holder no later than the end of the calendar year in which the dividends are paid to
stockholders or, if later, the 15th day of the third month following the date the dividends are paid to stockholders. 

  
 15 

 9.3. FORFEITURE. Subject to the terms of the Award Certificate and except as
otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter, upon termination of Continuous Service during the applicable restriction period or upon failure to satisfy a performance goal during the applicable
restriction period, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units that are at that time subject to restrictions shall be forfeited. 

9.4. DELIVERY OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be delivered to the Participant at the Grant Date either

applicable to such Restricted Stock. 
 ARTICLE 10 

PERFORMANCE AWARDS 

10.1. GRANT OF PERFORMANCE AWARDS. The Committee is authorized to grant any Award under this Plan, including cash-based
Awards, with performance-based vesting criteria, on such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Committee. Any such Awards with performance-based vesting criteria are referred to herein as Performance Awards, and may be referred to by any
other appropriate descriptive name in the Award Certificate. The Committee shall have the complete discretion to determine the number of Performance Awards granted to each Participant, subject to Section 5.4, and to designate the provisions of
such Performance Awards as provided in Section 4.3. All Performance Awards shall be evidenced by an Award Certificate or a written program established by the Committee, pursuant to which Performance Awards are awarded under the Plan under
uniform terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in such written program. 
 10.2. PERFORMANCE GOALS. The Committee may
establish performance goals for Performance Awards which may be based on any criteria selected by the Committee. Such performance goals may be described in terms of Company-wide objectives or in terms of objectives that relate to the performance of
the Participant, an Affiliate or a division, region, department or function within the Company or an Affiliate. If the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure or capital structure of the Company or the
manner in which the Company or an Affiliate conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render performance goals to be unsuitable, the Committee may modify such performance goals in whole or in part, as the Committee deems appropriate.
If a Participant is promoted, demoted or transferred to a different business unit or function during a performance period, the Committee may determine that the performance goals or performance period are no longer appropriate and may
(i) adjust, change or eliminate the performance goals or the applicable performance period as it deems appropriate to make such goals and period comparable to the initial goals and period, or (ii) make a cash payment to the participant in
an amount determined by the Committee. The foregoing two sentences shall not apply with respect to a Performance Award that is intended to be a Qualified Performance-Based Award if the recipient of such award (a) was a Covered Employee on the
date of the proposed modification, adjustment, change or elimination of the performance goals or performance period, or (b) in the reasonable judgment of the Committee, may be a Covered Employee on the date the Performance Award is expected to
be paid. 

  
 16 

 ARTICLE 11 

QUALIFIED PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS 

11.1. OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. The provisions of the Plan are intended to ensure that all Options and Stock
Appreciation Rights granted hereunder to any Covered Employee shall qualify for the Section 162(m) Exemption. 
 11.2.
OTHER AWARDS. When granting any other Award, including cash-based Awards the Committee may designate such Award as a Qualified Performance-Based Award, based upon a determination that the recipient is or may be a Covered Employee with respect to
such Award, and the Committee wishes such Award to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exemption. If an Award is so designated, the Committee shall establish performance goals for such Award within the time period prescribed by Section 162(m)
of the Code based on one or more of the following Qualified Business Criteria, which performance goals may be expressed in terms of Company-wide objectives or in terms of objectives that relate to the performance of an Affiliate or a division,
region, department or function within the Company or an Affiliate: 
  

	 	•	 	 Revenue (premium revenue, total revenue or other revenue measures) 

 

	 	•	 	 Sales 

  

	 	•	 	 Profit (net profit, gross profit, operating profit, economic profit, profit margins or other corporate profit
measures) 

  

	 	•	 	 Earnings (EBIT, EBITDA, earnings per share, or other corporate earnings measures) 

 

	 	•	 	 Net income (before or after taxes, operating income or other income measures) 

 

	 	•	 	 Cash (cash flow, cash generation or other cash measures) 

 

	 	•	 	 Stock price or performance 

 

	 	•	 	 Total stockholder return (stock price appreciation plus reinvested dividends divided by beginning share price)

  

	 	•	 	 Economic value added 

 

	 	•	 	 Return measures (including, but not limited to, return on assets, capital, equity, investments or sales, and
cash flow return on assets, capital, equity, or sales); 

  

	 	•	 	 Market share 

  

	 	•	 	 Improvements in capital structure 

 

	 	•	 	 Expenses (expense management, expense ratio, expense efficiency ratios or other expense measures)

  

	 	•	 	 Business expansion or consolidation (acquisitions, divestitures, in licensing, or product acquisitions)

  

	 	•	 	 Market capitalization 

 

	 	•	 	 Clinical and regulatory milestones 

 

	 	•	 	 Corporate financing activities 

 

	 	•	 	 Supply, production, and manufacturing milestones 

 

	 	•	 	 Corporate partnerships or strategic alliances 

Performance goals with respect to the foregoing Qualified Business Criteria may be specified in absolute terms, in percentages, or in terms of
growth from period to period or growth rates over time, as well as measured relative to the performance of a group of comparator companies, or a published or special index, or a stock market index, that the Committee deems appropriate. Any member of
a comparator group or an index that ceases to exist during a measurement period shall be disregarded for the entire measurement period. Performance Goals need not be based upon an increase or positive result under a business criterion and could
include, for example, the maintenance of the status quo or the limitation of economic losses (measured, in each case, by reference to a specific business criterion). 

11.3. PERFORMANCE GOALS. Each Qualified Performance-Based Award (other than a
market-priced Option or SAR) shall be earned, vested and payable (as applicable) only upon the achievement of performance goals established by the Committee based upon one or more of the Qualified Business
Criteria, together with the satisfaction of any other conditions, such as continued employment, as the Committee may determine to be appropriate; provided, however, that the Committee may provide, either in connection with the grant thereof or by
amendment thereafter, that achievement of such performance goals will be waived, in whole 

  
 17 

 
or in part, upon (i) the termination of employment of a Participant by reason of death or Disability, or (ii) the occurrence of a Change in Control. Performance periods established by
the Committee for any such Qualified Performance-Based Award may be as short as three months and may be any longer period. In addition, the Committee has the right, in connection with the grant of a Qualified Performance-Based Award, to exercise
negative discretion to determine that the portion of such Award actually earned, vested and/or payable (as applicable) shall be less than the portion that would be earned, vested and/or payable based solely upon application of the applicable
performance goals. 
 11.4. INCLUSIONS AND EXCLUSIONS FROM PERFORMANCE CRITERIA. The Committee may provide in any Qualified
Performance-Based Award, at the time the performance goals are established, that any evaluation of performance shall exclude or otherwise objectively adjust for any specified circumstance or event that occurs during a performance period, including
by way of example but without limitation the following: (a) asset write-downs or impairment charges; (b) litigation or claim judgments or settlements; (c) the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles or other laws or
provisions affecting reported results; (d) accruals for reorganization and restructuring programs; (e) extraordinary nonrecurring items as described in then-current accounting principles; (f) extraordinary nonrecurring items as
described in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report to stockholders for the applicable year; (g) acquisitions or divestitures; (h) share
buy-back programs, and (i) foreign exchange gains and losses. To the extent such inclusions or exclusions affect Awards to Covered Employees, they shall be prescribed in a form that meets the requirements of Code Section 162(m) for
deductibility. 
 11.5. CERTIFICATION OF PERFORMANCE GOALS. Any payment of a Qualified
Performance-Based Award granted with performance goals pursuant to Section 11.3 above shall be conditioned on the written certification of the Committee in each case that the performance goals and any
other material conditions were satisfied. Except as specifically provided in Section 11.3, no Qualified Performance-Based Award held by a Covered Employee or by an employee who in the reasonable judgment
of the Committee may be a Covered Employee on the date of payment, may be amended, nor may the Committee exercise any discretionary authority it may otherwise have under the Plan with respect to a Qualified Performance-Based Award under the Plan, in
any manner to waive the achievement of the applicable performance goal based on Qualified Business Criteria or to increase the amount payable pursuant thereto or the value thereof, or otherwise in a manner that would cause the Qualified
Performance-Based Award to cease to qualify for the Section 162(m) Exemption. 
 11.6. AWARD LIMITS. Section 5.4
sets forth (i) the maximum number of Shares that may be granted in any one-year period to a Participant in designated forms of stock-based Awards, and (ii) the maximum aggregate dollar amount that may be paid with respect to cash-based
Awards under the Plan to any one Participant in any fiscal year of the Company. 
 ARTICLE 12 

DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS 

12.1. GRANT OF DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents with respect to Full-Value
Awards granted hereunder, subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Committee. Dividend Equivalents shall entitle the Participant to receive payments equal to ordinary cash dividends or distributions with respect to all or a
portion of the number of Shares subject to a Full-Value Award, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may provide that Dividend Equivalents be paid or distributed when accrued or be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares or
otherwise reinvested. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Certificate, Dividend Equivalents will be paid or distributed to the Participant no later than the 15th day of the 3rd month following the later of (A) the calendar year in
which the corresponding dividends were paid to stockholders, or (B) the first calendar year in which the Participant’s right to such Dividends Equivalents is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. 

  
 18 

 ARTICLE 13 

STOCK OR OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS 

13.1. GRANT OF STOCK OR OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to
grant to Participants such other Awards that are payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to Shares, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, including without
limitation Shares awarded purely as a “bonus” and not subject to any restrictions or conditions, convertible or exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into Shares, and Awards valued by reference to book
value of Shares or the value of securities of or the performance of specified Parents or Subsidiaries. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards. 

ARTICLE 14 
 PROVISIONS APPLICABLE
TO AWARDS 
 14.1. AWARD CERTIFICATES. Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Certificate. Each Award Certificate shall
include such provisions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as may be specified by the Committee. 
 14.2. FORM OF PAYMENT FOR
AWARDS. At the discretion of the Committee, payment of Awards may be made in cash, Stock, a combination of cash and Stock, or any other form of property as the Committee shall determine. In addition, payment of Awards may include such terms,
conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, as the Committee deems appropriate, including, in the case of Awards paid in the form of Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions. Further, payment of Awards may be made in the
form of a lump sum, or in installments, as determined by the Committee; provided, however, that no payment of Awards shall be made earlier than the first date that such payment may be made without causing the assessment of an additional tax under
Section 409A of the Code. 
 14.3. LIMITS ON TRANSFER. No right or interest of a Participant in any unexercised or
restricted Award may be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or an Affiliate, or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to any other party other than the Company
or an Affiliate. No unexercised or restricted Award shall be assignable or transferable by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided, however, that the Committee may (but need not) permit other transfers
(other than transfers for value) where the Committee concludes that such transferability (i) does not result in accelerated taxation, (ii) does not cause any Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option to fail to be described in Code
Section 422(b), and (iii) is otherwise appropriate and desirable, taking into account any factors deemed relevant, including without limitation, state or federal tax or securities laws applicable to transferable Awards. 

14.4. BENEFICIARIES. Notwithstanding Section 14.3, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Committee,
designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights
under the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Certificate applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan and Award Certificate otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or
appropriate by the Committee. If no beneficiary 

  
 19 

 
has been designated or survives the Participant, any payment due to the Participant shall be made to the Participant’s estate. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be
changed or revoked by a Participant, in the manner provided by the Company, at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Committee. 

  
 20 

 14.5. STOCK TRADING RESTRICTIONS. All Stock issuable under the Plan is subject to
any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal or state securities laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on
which the Stock is listed, quoted, or traded. The Committee may place legends on any Stock certificate or issue instructions to the transfer agent to reference restrictions applicable to the Stock. 

14.6. EFFECT OF A CHANGE IN CONTROL. The provisions of this Section 14.6 shall apply in the case of a Change in Control,
unless otherwise provided in the Award Certificate or any special Plan document or separate agreement with a Participant governing an Award. 
  

	 	(a)	 Awards not Assumed or Substituted by Surviving Entity. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, and except
with respect to any Awards assumed by the Surviving Entity or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in connection with the Change in Control in a manner approved by the Committee or the Board: (i) outstanding Options or SARs shall become
fully exercisable, (ii) time-based vesting restrictions on outstanding Awards shall lapse, and (iii) the target payout opportunities attainable under outstanding performance-based Awards shall be
deemed to have been fully earned as of the effective date of the Change in Control based upon (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level if the Change in Control occurs during the first half of
the applicable performance period, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target measured as of the date of the Change in Control, if the Change in Control occurs during the second half of the
applicable performance period, and, in either such case, there shall be a prorata payout to Participants within sixty (60) days following the Change in Control (unless a later date is required by Section 17.3 hereof), based upon the length
of time within the performance period that has elapsed prior to the Change in Control. Any Options or SARs shall thereafter continue or lapse in accordance with the other provisions of the Plan and the Award Certificate. To the extent that this
provision causes Incentive Stock Options to exceed the dollar limitation set forth in Code Section 422(d), the excess Options shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options. 

 

	 	(b)	 Awards Assumed or Substituted by Surviving Entity. With respect to Awards assumed by the Surviving Entity or
otherwise equitably converted or substituted in connection with a Change in Control: if within one year after the effective date of the Change in Control, a Participant’s employment is terminated without Cause or the Participant resigns for
Good Reason, then (i) all of that Participant’s outstanding Options or SARs shall become fully exercisable, (ii) all time-based vesting restrictions on the his or her outstanding Awards shall lapse, and (iii) the payout level
under all of that Participant’s performance-based Awards that were outstanding immediately prior to effective time of the Change in Control shall be determined and deemed to have been earned as of the date of termination based upon (A) an
assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level if the date of termination occurs during the first half of the applicable performance period, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant
performance goals against target (measured as of the end of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date of termination), if the date of termination occurs during the second half of the applicable performance period, and, in either such case,
there shall be a prorata payout to such Participant within sixty (60) days following the date of termination of employment (unless a later date is required by Section 17.3 hereof), based upon the length of time within the performance
period that has elapsed prior to the date of termination of employment. With regard to each Award, a Participant shall not be considered to have resigned for Good Reason unless either (i) the Award Certificate includes such provision or
(ii) the Participant is party to an employment, consulting, severance or similar agreement with the Company or an Affiliate that includes provisions in which the 

  
 21 

	 	 
Participant is permitted to resign for Good Reason. Any Options or SARs shall thereafter continue or lapse in accordance with the other provisions of the Plan and the Award Certificate. To the
extent that this provision causes Incentive Stock Options to exceed the dollar limitation set forth in Code Section 422(d), the excess Options shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options. 

14.7. ACCELERATION FOR OTHER REASONS. Regardless of whether an event has occurred as described in Section 14.6 above, and
subject to Article 11 as to Qualified Performance-Based Awards, the Committee may in its sole discretion at any time determine that, upon the termination of service of a Participant for any reason, or the occurrence of a Change in Control, all or a
portion of such Participant’s Options or SARs shall become fully or partially exercisable, that all or a part of the restrictions on all or a portion of the Participant’s outstanding Awards shall lapse, and/or that any performance-based
criteria with respect to any Awards held by that Participant shall be deemed to be wholly or partially satisfied, in each case, as of such date as the Committee may, in its sole discretion, declare. The Committee may discriminate among Participants
and among Awards granted to a Participant in exercising its discretion pursuant to this Section 14.7. 
 14.8.
FORFEITURE EVENTS. Awards under the Plan shall be subject to any compensation recoupment policy that the Company may adopt from time to time that is applicable by its terms to the Participant. In addition, the Committee may specify in an Award
Certificate that the Participant’s rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise
applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Such events may include, but shall not be limited to, (i) termination of employment for cause, (ii) violation of material Company or Affiliate policies, (iii) breach of
noncompetition, confidentiality or other restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, (iv) other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company or any Affiliate, or (v) a later
determination that the vesting of, or amount realized from, a Performance Award was based on materially inaccurate financial statements or any other materially inaccurate performance metric criteria, whether or not the Participant caused or
contributed to such material inaccuracy. 
 14.9. SUBSTITUTE AWARDS. The Committee may grant Awards under the Plan in
substitution for stock and stock-based awards held by employees of another entity who become employees of the Company or an Affiliate as a result of a merger or consolidation of the former employing entity with the Company or an Affiliate or the
acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of property or stock of the former employing corporation. The Committee may direct that the substitute awards be granted on such terms and conditions as the Committee considers appropriate in the
circumstances. 
 ARTICLE 15 

CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE 

15.1. MANDATORY ADJUSTMENTS. In the event of a nonreciprocal transaction between the Company and its stockholders that causes
the per-share value of the Stock to change (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights offering, or large nonrecurring cash dividend), the authorization limits under Section 5.1 and 5.4 shall be adjusted
proportionately, and the Committee shall make such adjustments to the Plan and Awards as it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights immediately resulting from such transaction. Action by the Committee
may include: (i) adjustment of the number and kind of shares that may be delivered under the Plan; (ii) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards; (iii) adjustment of the exercise price of outstanding Awards
or the measure to be used to determine the amount of the benefit payable on an Award; and (iv) any other adjustments that the Committee determines to be equitable. Notwithstanding 

  
 22 

 
the foregoing, the Committee shall not make any adjustments to outstanding Options or SARs that would constitute a modification or substitution of the stock right under Treas. Reg. Sections
l.409A- l (b)(5)(v) that would be treated as the grant of a new stock right or change in the form of payment for purposes of Code Section 409A. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Stock
(stock-split), a declaration of a dividend payable in Shares, or a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock into a lesser number of Shares, the authorization limits under Section 5.1 and 5.4 shall automatically be adjusted
proportionately, and the Shares then subject to each Award shall automatically, without the necessity for any additional action by the Committee, be adjusted proportionately without any change in the aggregate purchase price therefor. 

15.2 DISCRETIONARY ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence or in anticipation of any corporate event or transaction involving the
Company (including, without limitation, any merger, reorganization, recapitalization, combination or exchange of shares, or any transaction described in Section 15.1), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide (i) that Awards will
be settled in cash rather than Stock, (ii) that Awards will become immediately vested and non-forfeitable and exercisable (in whole or in part) and will expire after a designated period of time to the extent not then exercised, (iii) that
Awards will be assumed by another party to a transaction or otherwise be equitably converted or substituted in connection with such transaction, (iv) that outstanding Awards may be settled by payment in cash or cash equivalents equal to the
excess of the Fair Market Value of the underlying Stock, as of a specified date associated with the transaction, over the exercise or base price of the Award, (v) that performance targets and performance periods for Performance Awards will be
modified, consistent with Code Section 162(m) where applicable, or (vi) any combination of the foregoing. The Committee’s determination need not be uniform and may be different for different Participants whether or not such
Participants are similarly situated. 
 15.3 GENERAL. Any discretionary adjustments made pursuant to this Article 15 shall
be subject to the provisions of Section 16.2. To the extent that any adjustments made pursuant to this Article 15 cause Incentive Stock Options to cease to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, such Options shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory
Stock Options. 
 ARTICLE 16 

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION 

16.1. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION. The Board or the Committee may, at any time and from time to time, amend,
modify or terminate the Plan without stockholder approval; provided, however, that if an amendment to the Plan would, in the reasonable opinion of the Board or the Committee, either (i) materially increase the number of Shares available under
the Plan, (ii) expand the types of awards under the Plan, (iii) materially expand the class of participants eligible to participate in the Plan, (iv) materially extend the term of the Plan, or (v) otherwise constitute a material
change requiring stockholder approval under applicable laws, policies or regulations or the applicable listing or other requirements of an Exchange, then such amendment shall be subject to stockholder approval; and provided, further, that the Board
or Committee may condition any other amendment or modification on the approval of stockholders of the Company for any reason, including by reason of such approval being necessary or deemed advisable (i) to comply with the listing or other
requirements of an Exchange, or (ii) to satisfy any other tax, securities or other applicable laws, policies or regulations. Without the prior approval of the stockholders of the Company, the Plan may not be amended to permit: (i) the
exercise price or base price of an Option or SAR to be reduced, directly or indirectly, (ii) an Option or SAR to be cancelled in exchange for cash, other Awards, or Options or SARs with an exercise or base price that is less than the exercise
price or base price of the original Option or SAR, or otherwise, or (iii) the Company to repurchase an Option or SAR for value (in cash or otherwise) from a Participant if the current Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the Option or SAR
is lower than the exercise price or base price per share of the Option or SAR. 

  
 23 

 16.2. AWARDS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED. At any time and from time to time, the Committee
may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award without approval of the Participant; provided, however: 
 (a) Subject to the terms of
the applicable Award Certificate, such amendment, modification or termination shall not, without the Participant’s consent, reduce or diminish the value of such Award as of the date of such action determined as if the Award had been exercised,
vested, cashed in or otherwise settled on the date of such amendment or termination (with the per-share value of an Option or SAR for this purpose being calculated as the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value as of the date of such amendment or
termination over the exercise or base price of such Award); 
 (b) The original term of an Option or SAR may not be extended without the
prior approval of the stockholders of the Company; 
 (c) Except as otherwise provided in Section 15.1, without the prior approval of
the stockholders of the Company: (i) the exercise price or base price of an Option or SAR may not be reduced, directly or indirectly, (ii) an Option or SAR may not be cancelled in exchange for cash, other Awards, or Options or SARs with an
exercise or base price that is less than the exercise price or base price of the original Option or SAR, or otherwise, and (iii) the Company may not repurchase an Option or SAR for value (in cash or otherwise) from a Participant if the current
Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying the Option or SAR is lower than the exercise price or base price per share of the Option or SAR; and 

(d) No termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect any Award previously granted under the Plan, without the
written consent of the Participant affected thereby. An outstanding Award shall not be deemed to be “adversely affected” by a Plan amendment if such amendment would not reduce or diminish the value of such Award determined as if the Award
had been exercised, vested, cashed in or otherwise settled on the date of such amendment (with the per-share value of an Option or SAR for this purpose being calculated as the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value as of the date of such amendment
over the exercise or base price of such Award). 
 16.3. COMPLIANCE AMENDMENTS. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in
any Award Certificate to the contrary, the Board may amend the Plan or an Award Certificate, to take effect retroactively or otherwise, as deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of conforming the Plan or Award Certificate to any present or
future law relating to plans of this or similar nature (including, but not limited to, Section 409A of the Code), and to the administrative regulations and rulings promulgated thereunder. By accepting an Award under this Plan, a Participant
agrees to any amendment made pursuant to this Section 16.3 to any Award granted under the Plan without further consideration or action. 

ARTICLE 17 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS

 17.1. RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS. 

(a) No Participant or any Eligible Participant shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan. Neither the Company, its Affiliates
nor the Committee is obligated to treat Participants or Eligible Participants uniformly, and determinations made under the Plan may be made by the Committee selectively among Eligible Participants who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards
(whether or not such Eligible Participants are similarly situated). 

  
 24 

 (b) Nothing in the Plan, any Award Certificate or any other document or statement made with
respect to the Plan, shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate any Participant’s employment or status as an officer, or any Participant’s service as a director or consultant, at any
time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue as an employee, officer, director or consultant of the Company or any Affiliate, whether for the duration of a Participant’s Award or otherwise. 

(c) Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute an employment contract with the Company or any Affiliate and,
accordingly, subject to Article 16, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Committee without giving rise to any liability on the part of the Company or an of its Affiliates.

 (d) No Award gives a Participant any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until Shares are in fact issued to such
person in connection with such Award. 
 17.2. WITHHOLDING. The Company or any Affiliate shall have the authority and the
right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company or such Affiliate, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with
respect to any exercise, lapse of restriction or other taxable event arising as a result of the Plan. The obligations of the Company under the Plan will be conditioned on such payment or arrangements and the Company or such Affiliate will, to the
extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time the Award is granted or thereafter, any such withholding
requirement may be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from the Award Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the minimum amount (and not any greater amount) required to be withheld for tax purposes, all in
accordance with such procedures as the Committee establishes. All such elections shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. 

17.3. SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATED TO SECTION 409A OF THE CODE. 

(a) General. It is intended that the payments and benefits provided under the Plan and any Award shall either be exempt from the application
of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and all Award Certificates shall be construed in a manner that effects such intent. Nevertheless, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan or any Award
is not warranted or guaranteed. Neither the Company, its Affiliates nor their respective directors, officers, employees or advisers (other than in his or her capacity as a Participant) shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties or other
monetary amounts owed by any Participant or other taxpayer as a result of the Plan or any Award. 
 (b) Definitional Restrictions.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary, to the extent that any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code
(“Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation”) would otherwise be payable or distributable, or a different form of payment (e.g., lump sum or installment) of such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation would be effected, under the Plan or any Award
Certificate by reason of the occurrence of a Change in Control, or the Participant’s Disability or separation from service, such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation will not be payable or distributable to the Participant, and/or such different
form of payment will not be effected, by reason of such circumstance unless the circumstances giving rise to such Change in Control, Disability or separation from service meet any description or definition of “change in control event”,
“disability” or “separation from service”, as the case may be, in 

  
 25 

 
Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations (without giving effect to any elective provisions that may be available under such definition). This provision does not affect the dollar
amount or prohibit the vesting of any Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation upon a Change in Control, Disability or termination of employment, however defined. If this provision prevents the payment or distribution of any Non-Exempt Deferred
Compensation, or the application of a different form of payment, such payment or distribution shall be made at the time and in the form that would have applied absent the non-409A-conforming event. 

(c) Allocation among Possible Exemptions. If any one or more Awards granted under the Plan to a Participant could qualify for any separation
pay exemption described in Treas. Reg. Section l.409A-l(b)(9), but such Awards in the aggregate exceed the dollar limit permitted for the separation pay exemptions, the Company (acting through the Committee or
the Chief Financial Officer) shall determine which Awards or portions thereof will be subject to such exemptions. 
 (d) Six-Month Delay in
Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary, if any amount or benefit that would constitute Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation would otherwise be payable or distributable under this Plan or
any Award Certificate by reason of a Participant’s separation from service during a period in which the Participant is a Specified Employee (as defined below), then, subject to any permissible acceleration of payment by the Committee under
Treas. Reg. Section l.409A-3(j)(4)(ii) (domestic relations order), (j)(4)(iii) (conflicts of interest), or U)(4)(vi) (payment of employment taxes): 

(i) the amount of such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation that would otherwise be payable during the six-month period immediately following the
Participant’s separation from service will be accumulated through and paid or provided on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s separation from service (or, if the Participant dies during such period, within 30
days after the Participant’s death) (in either case, the “Required Delay Period”); and 
 (ii) the normal payment or
distribution schedule for any remaining payments or distributions will resume at the end of the Required Delay Period. 
 For purposes of
this Plan, the term “Specified Employee” has the meaning given such term in Code Section 409A and the final regulations thereunder; provided, however, that, as permitted in such final regulations, the Company’s Specified
Employees and its application of the six-month delay rule of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) shall be determined in accordance with rules adopted by the Board or any committee of the Board, which shall be applied consistently with respect to all
nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements of the Company, including this Plan. 
 (e) Installment Payments. If, pursuant to an Award, a
Participant is entitled to a series of installment payments, such Participant’s right to the series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not to a single payment. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, the term “series of installment payments” has the meaning provided in Treas. Reg. Section l .409A-2(b)(2)(iii) (or any successor thereto). 

(f) Timing of Release of Claims. Whenever an Award conditions a payment or benefit on the Participant’s execution and non-revocation of a
release of claims, such release must be executed and all revocation periods shall have expired within 60 days after the date of termination of the Participant’s employment; failing which such payment or benefit shall be forfeited. If such
payment or benefit is exempt from Section 409A of the Code, the Company may elect to make or commence payment at any time during such 60-day period. If such payment or benefit constitutes Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation, then, subject to
subsection (c) above, (i) if such 60-day period begins and ends in a single calendar year, the Company may make or commence payment at any time during such 

  
 26 

 
period at its discretion, and (ii) if such 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in the next calendar year, the payment shall be made or commence during the second such calendar
year (or any later date specified for such payment under the applicable Award), even if such signing and non-revocation of the release occur during the first such calendar year included within such 60-day period. In other words, a Participant is not
permitted to influence the calendar year of payment based on the timing of signing the release. 
 (g) Permitted Acceleration. The Company
shall have the sole authority to make any accelerated distribution permissible under Treas. Reg. section l.409A-3U)(4) to Participants of deferred amounts, provided that such distribution(s) meets the requirements of Treas. Reg. section
1.409A-3U)(4). 
 17.4. UNFUNDED STATUS OF AWARDS. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive and
deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Certificate shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of
the Company or any Affiliate. In its sole discretion, the Committee may authorize the creation of grantor trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Shares or payments in lieu of Shares or with respect to
Awards. This Plan is not intended to be subject to ERISA. 
 17.5. RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER BENEFITS. No payment under the Plan
shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate unless provided otherwise in such other plan. Nothing contained
in the Plan will prevent the Company from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements, subject to stockholder approval if such approval is required; and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific
cases. 
 17.6. EXPENSES. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Affiliates. 

17.7. TITLES AND HEADINGS. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only, and in
the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. 
 17.8. GENDER AND
NUMBER. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine; the plural shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural. 

17.9. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional Shares shall be issued and the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether
cash shall be given in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down. 

17.10. GOVERNMENT AND OTHER REGULATIONS. 

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no Participant who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan may, during any period of time
that such Participant is an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the 1933 Act), sell such Shares, unless such offer and sale is made (i) pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, which is current and includes the Shares to be sold, or (ii) pursuant to an appropriate exemption from the registration requirement of the 1933 Act, such as that set forth in Rule 144
promulgated under the 1933 Act. 

  
 27 

 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if at any time the Committee shall determine
that the registration, listing or qualification of the Shares covered by an Award upon any Exchange or under any foreign, federal, state or local law or practice, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or
desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such Award or the purchase or receipt of Shares thereunder, no Shares may be purchased, delivered or received pursuant to such Award unless and until such registration, listing,
qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any condition not acceptable to the Committee. Any Participant receiving or purchasing Shares pursuant to an Award shall make such representations and agreements and
furnish such information as the Committee may request to assure compliance with the foregoing or any other applicable legal requirements. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for Shares under the Plan
prior to the Committee’s determination that all related requirements have been fulfilled. The Company shall in no event be obligated to register any securities pursuant to the 1933 Act or applicable state or foreign law or to take any other
action in order to cause the issuance and delivery of such certificates to comply with any such law, regulation or requirement. 

17.11. GOVERNING LAW. To the extent not governed by federal law, the Plan and all Award Certificates shall be construed in
accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. 
 17.12. SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision
of this Plan is found to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable under any applicable law, such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed as rendering any other provisions contained herein as invalid or unenforceable, and all such other
provisions will be given full force and effect to the same extent as though the invalid or unenforceable provision was not contained herein. 

17.13. NO LIMITATIONS ON RIGHTS OF COMPANY. The grant of any Award shall not in any way affect the right or power of the
Company to make adjustments, reclassification or changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. The Plan shall not restrict the authority of the
Company, for proper corporate purposes, to draft or assume awards, other than under the Plan, to or with respect to any person. If the Committee so directs, the Company may issue or transfer Shares to an Affiliate, for such lawful consideration as
the Committee may specify, upon the condition or understanding that the Affiliate will transfer such Shares to a Participant in accordance with the terms of an Award granted to such Participant and specified by the Committee pursuant to the
provisions of the Plan. 
 The foregoing is hereby acknowledged as being the Keryx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. Amended and Restated 2013
Incentive Plan as adopted by the Board on March 31, 2016 and by the stockholders on May 25, 2016.
