 BUSINESS TERMS EXHIBIT 

Consulting Agreement with Timothy S. Nelson 
  

	1.	Consulting Services: 

 The
Consultant shall serve as a member and chairman of the CIVITAS Board. 
  

	2.	Compensation: 

  

	 	a.	Fees. CIVITAS shall pay the Consultant a fee at the rate of $55,000 per year for Consulting Services rendered at the request of the CIVITAS hereunder. Fees for
Consulting Services will be paid quarterly within thirty (30) days after the end of each fiscal quarter. 

  

	 	b.	Equity. Consultant shall receive an option to purchase 548,996 shares of CIVITAS common stock (the “Option”) upon approval of the Board and in
accordance with CIVITAS policies and stock option plan. The exercise price per share of the Option will be determined by the Board when the Option is granted. Consultant will vest in the Option in equal monthly installments over 48 months of
continuous service. Furthermore, if CIVITAS enters into a binding definitive agreement with regard to the Acquisition (as defined in the applicable stock option agreement) of CIVITAS by that certain entity from whom CIVITAS received a preliminary,
non-binding indication of interest dated October 8, 2013 (the “Specified Party”) prior to Phase 2b Data (as defined in the applicable stock option agreement) and such Acquisition is consummated prior to July 1, 2014 with CIVITAS
and the Specified Party maintaining exclusivity until the consummation of such Acquisition (a “2014 Sale”), then the vested portion of the shares subject to the Option shall be determined by adding sixteen (16) months to the
Consultant’s actual service to CIVITAS, less any amount of vested shares that the Consultant had previously vested in prior to such acceleration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 100% of the shares subject to the Option shall vest upon the
consummation of an Acquisition that is not a 2014 Sale. 

  

	 	c.	Expenses. CIVITAS will reimburse Consultant for all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred by Consultant in rendering the Consulting Services, provided that
those expenses in excess of five hundred dollars ($500) per month have been approved in advance by CIVITAS. Further, all expenses must be confirmed by appropriate written expense statements and other supporting documentation.

  

	 	d.	Invoicing/Payments. On the last day of each calendar month, Consultant will invoice CIVITAS for expenses incurred during the preceding month. Invoices will
contain detail as CIVITAS may reasonably require and will be payable in U.S. Dollars. All undisputed payments will be made within forty five (45) days from CIVITAS’s receipt of Consultant’s invoice. 

 

	3.	Term: This Agreement will be for a term determined by the CIVITAS Board of Directors beginning on the Effective Date (the “Term”), and may be extended
for additional periods, at CIVITAS’s option and with Consultant’s consent. Nothing in this Agreement should be construed to interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of CIVITAS and CIVITAS’ stockholders to remove any
individual from the Board at any time in accordance with the provisions of applicable law or CIVITAS’ charter documents. 

  

	4.	The Field: shall be inhaled therapeutic programs CIVITAS is actively pursuing. 

 

	5.	Insurance: Notwithstanding Section 8.1(a) of the Agreement, the Consultant shall be covered by the Directors and Officers insurance policy consistent with
the coverage of the other members of the CIVITAS Board.EX-10.21
