RE: Acceleration Provisions of Stock Options

 

I am pleased to announce that on September 4, 2015, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of KemPharm, Inc. (the “Company”) added the following acceleration provision (the “Acceleration Provision”) to the vesting terms of all outstanding stock options (the “Outstanding Options”) issued to you by the Company:

 

“Notwithstanding anything to contrary, the vesting of this Option shall accelerate so as to be fully vested and immediately exercisable immediately prior to any Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) of the Company.” 

 

Other than the addition of the Acceleration Provision, the terms of your Outstanding Options shall remain unchanged, including without limitation the exercise price, number of shares, vesting schedule (including any non-Change in Control (as defined in the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Plan) related acceleration provisions thereof) and the expiration date thereof.  

 

Your Outstanding Options continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of your original option agreements and the Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan and 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, as applicable.  No amended stock option agreements will be issued to you to reflect the Acceleration Provision.  You should retain a copy of this letter with your original option agreements for your Outstanding Options.  Except as expressly set forth in this letter agreement, no change or amendment is being made to your Outstanding Options and option agreements.

 

At your earliest convenience, please sign and return this letter agreement R. LaDuane Clifton, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, at lclifton@kempharm.com.  Please contact R. LaDuane Clifton if you have any questions about the Acceleration Provision or your Outstanding Options.

Page 7 commence   on the day after the Expiry Date; be at the rent set out in item 16; and   otherwise be on the same terms and conditions as this Lease except for those   changes that can be made by virtue of clause 6.2. 6.2 Changes to this Lease   on renewal The Landlord: will delete this clause from the new lease if the   new lease is for the final option period set out in item 15; or will delete   the first option period specified in item 15 from the new lease if there is   more than one option period specified in that item; and may vary the new   lease to accommodate any change that needs to be made because of any law   dealing with or affecting retail tenancies or the rights and interests of   landlords and tenants under retail tenancy leases. 6.3 If Tenant is in breach   of this Lease The Landlord does not have to grant the Tenant the new lease   if: at the time the Tenant gives the Landlord the notice the Tenant has not   remedied any breach under this Lease (see clause 27) about which the Landlord   has given the Tenant notice; or the Tenant has persistently breached this   Lease and the Landlord has given the Tenant notice of the breaches. 7.

The Landlord or the Tenant   may end the monthly tenancy on any day by giving at least one month's notice   to the other party. 8. Payments 8.1 What the Tenant must pay the Landlord The   Tenant must pay the Landlord the rent, its share of the Outgoings, Statutory   Charges and any other money the Tenant must pay the Landlord under this Lease   on time and in full without deduction or set-off. 8.2 The Landlord may charge   interest if payments are late If the Tenant is late in paying rent or any   other money to the Landlord, the Landlord may charge interest on that money   at a rate equal to 2% above the rate that applies under section 2 of the   Penalty Interest Rates Act 1983. The Landlord will calculate the interest on   any unpaid money from the day the unpaid money was due until the day it and   all interest accrued on it is paid in full.

    

 

Pages 8.3   Adjustments If money payable by the Tenant is calculated using a time period   and this Lease starts or ends during that time period, the amount payable   must be calculated proportionately and the Landlord must make any necessary   proportional adjustment. 8.4 Goods and Services Tax If a goods and services   tax or similar value added tax (GST) is at any time levied or imposed on or   in respect of any supply by the Landlord to the Tenant made under or in accordance   with this Lease (including but not only the leasing of the Premises), the   amount payable for that supply under this Lease will be increased by the   amount of the GST so levied or imposed and the Tenant must pay that amount   upon provision of a valid tax invoice. 9. The tenant must pay rent The Tenant   must pay the rent set out in item 10 to the Landlord in equal monthly   instalments in advance and on or before the first day of each month. 10.   Market rent review 10.1 Notice of increased market rent If item 10 or item 16   says that the rent for any year is to be the market rent for the Premises,   the Landlord must give the Tenant notice of what the Landlord says is the   current market rent for the Premises as at the first day of that year (Market   Review Date). The Landlord must give the Tenant this notice not later than 12   months after the Market Review Date. Until the Landlord gives the Landlord's   notice under clause 10.1, the Tenant must pay the old rent and any adjustment   will be calculated from the Market Review Date. 10.2 Disputes If the Tenant   disputes the rent notified by the Landlord under clause 10.1, the procedure   in clause 10.3 must be followed. Each time limit is consecutive. Each time   limit in clause 10.3 is of the essence. This means that if a time limit is   not kept, the right attached is lost. 10.3 Review procedure If the Tenant   disputes the rent notified by the Landlord under clause 10.1, the Tenant must   give the Landlord notice of that dispute by not later than 28 days after the   Landlord gives the Landlord's notice. The Tenant and the Landlord must   negotiate in good faith to try to agree on a new rent within 14 days or if a   new base rent is not agreed, on the appointment of a Valuer to decide the new   rent. If the Tenant and the Landlord do not agree on the new rent or on the   appointment of a Valuer within the time set out in clause 10.3(b), either the   Tenant or the Landlord may ask the President of the Australian Property   Institute Inc - Victorian Division (or the president nominee) to appoint a Valuer   to decide the new rent. The Valuer must decide the new rent based on the   current market rent.

    

 

Page 9 10.4 New   rent applies from the Market Review Date The Tenant must pay the new rent   from the Market Review Date. Until any dispute is resolved or a right is   lost, the Tenant must pay the old rent Any adjustment will be calculated from   the Market Review Date and made when the Tenant's next monthly payment is   due. 10.5 Valuer's decision The Valuer will act as an independent expert and   not as an arbitrator. He or she must: give his or her decision in writing;   give detailed reasons for his or her decision; and specify the matters to   which he or she had regard in making the decision. 10.6 Valuing the current   market rent In the valuation the current market rent is to be taken as the   rent obtainable at the time of the review in a free and open market, between   a willing landlord and a willing tenant in an arm's length transaction,   having regard to these matters: the provisions of this Lease; the rent that   would reasonably be expected to be paid for the Premises if they were   unoccupied and offered for lease for the same, or a substantially similar,   use to that set out in item 12; the Landlord's outgoings to the extent to   which the Tenant is liable to contribute to those outgoings. rent concessions   and other benefits offered to prospective tenants of unoccupied premises, but   the current market rent is not to take account of the value of goodwill   created by the Tenant's occupation or the value of the Tenant's fixtures and   fittings. 10.7 The Valuer's costs The Tenant and the Landlord must share the   Valuer's costs equally. 11. Rent review 11.1 Formula for CPI rent increases   If item 10 or item 16 says the rent for any year is to be increased by CPI the   rent will be increased on and as at the first day of that year (CPI Review   Date) to a new rent calculated using the formula: A NMR = CMR x B where: NMR   is the new rent CMR is the rent payable immediately before the CPI Review   Date;

    

 

Page 10 A is   the level of the CPI at the end of the calendar quarter immediately preceding   the CPI Review Date; B is the level of the CPI at the end of the calendar   quarter immediately preceding the date which is 12 months before the CPI   Review Date; and CPI is the Consumer Price Index Melbourne, All Groups as   published quarterly by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS). 11.2   Changes made by the ABS If the ABS updates the base year of the CPI a   conversion will be made to preserve the intended continuity of calculation by   using the appropriate arithmetical factor determined by the ABS. If the ABS   stops publishing the CPI the Landlord and the Tenant will agree to replace   the CPI with any other index which is published to replace the CPI. If the   Landlord and the Tenant cannot agree on a replacement index, the Landlord may   ask the person who is then president of the Australian Property Institute Inc   - Victorian Division (or the president's nominee) (President) to select an   index which appropriately reflects increases in the cost of living in   Melbourne. The President will make the selection as an expert and not as an   arbitrator and the selection will be final and binding on the Landlord and   the Tenant who must share the President's costs equally. 11.3 New rent applies   from CPI Review Date The Tenant must pay the new rent from the CPI Review   Date. If the new rent is not calculated until after the CPI Review Date the   Tenant must pay the old rent until the new rent is calculated. Any adjustment   will be calculated from the CPI Review Date and made when the Tenant's next   monthly payment is due. 12. Outgoings 12.1 The Tenant must pay the Tenant's   share of outgoings (a) The Tenant must pay the Tenant's share of the   Outgoings for the Complex. If an Outgoing is only referable to some of the   premises in the Complex, including the Premises, then the Tenant's share of   that outgoing will be the proportion that the lettable area of the Premises   bears to the total of lettable areas of the premises in the Complex which   receive the benefit of the outgoing. 12.2 Meaning of Outgoings Outgoings   means all costs the Landlord incurs in relation to the ownership, occupation,   use, conduct, management and maintenance of the Complex, including: rates or   assessments or other fees payable to an Authority (for example: council   rates, water rates, electricity, gas, sewerage); taxes including the   Landlord's land tax and excluding income tax and capital gains tax; premiums   for insurance against all risks concerning the Complex or the Landlord's employees   and contractors including insurance against loss of rent and consequential   loss;

The Tenant must if requested by the Landlord, pay the   Landlord the estimated share of the Outgoings in equal monthly instalments,   in advance and on or before the first day of each month. 12.6 Landlord's   statement of Outgoings (a) On or before each 30 September the Landlord must   give the Tenant a written statement that details: (i) all the Landlord's   expenditure on account of the Outgoings to which the Tenant is liable to   contribute for the previous financial year; and (ii) the Tenant's share of   these, accompanied by a report prepared by a registered company auditor. 12.7   Adjustment If the Tenant pays its estimated share of the Outgoings in equal   monthly instalments under clause 12.5(b) and the Outgoings are greater than   the estimated Outgoings paid, the Tenant must pay
