 Exhibit 10.4 

MEIRAGTX HOLDINGS PLC 

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 

THIS INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into on ______________, 20[18] between MeiraGTx
Holdings plc, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), and [Name] (“Indemnitee”). 

WITNESSETH THAT: 
 WHEREAS,
highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve corporations as directors, officers or in other capacities unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of
claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation; 
 WHEREAS, the Board of
Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect
persons serving the Company and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities. Although the furnishing of such insurance has been a customary and widespread practice among business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions
and trends, such insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher premiums and with more exclusions. At the same time, directors, officers, and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly
subjected to expensive and time-consuming litigation relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise itself. The articles of association of the Company provides for
the indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company. The indemnification provisions in the Company’s articles of association are not exclusive, and thereby contracts may be entered into between the Company and members of the Board,
officers and other persons with respect to indemnification; 
 WHEREAS, the uncertainties relating to such insurance and to indemnification
have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons; 
 WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the increased difficulty
in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company’s shareholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future; 

WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on
behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified; 

WHEREAS, this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the articles of association of the Company and any resolutions adopted
pursuant thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; [and] 

  
 1 

 WHEREAS, Indemnitee does not regard the protection available under the Company’s and
articles of association and insurance as adequate in the present circumstances, and may not be willing to serve as an officer or director without adequate protection, and the Company desires Indemnitee to serve in such capacity. Indemnitee is
willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that he be so indemnified; [and] 

[WHEREAS, Indemnitee has certain rights to indemnification and/or insurance provided by [NAME] which Indemnitee and [NAME] intend to be
secondary to the primary obligation of the Company to indemnify Indemnitee as provided herein, with the Company’s acknowledgement and agreement to the foregoing being a material condition to Indemnitee’s willingness to serve on the Board;]

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Indemnitee’s agreement to serve as an officer or director from and after the date hereof, the
parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Indemnity of Indemnitee. The Company hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitee to
the fullest extent permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to time. In furtherance of the foregoing indemnification, and without limiting the generality thereof: 

(a) Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification
provided in this Section l(a) if, by reason of his Corporate Status (as hereinafter defined), the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (as hereinafter defined) other than a Proceeding by or
in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(a), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses (as hereinafter defined), judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him, or on his behalf, in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the Company, and with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. 

(b) Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this
Section 1(b) if, by reason of his Corporate Status, the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this
Section 1(b), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee, or on the Indemnitee’s behalf, in connection with such Proceeding if the Indemnitee acted in good
faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; provided, however, if applicable law so provides, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect of any claim,
issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and to the extent that the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands shall determine that such indemnification may be made. 

  
 2 

 (c) Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, he shall be indemnified to the maximum extent
permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to time, against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the
merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with each
successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result
as to such claim, issue or matter. 
 (d) [Indemnification of Appointing Shareholder. If (i) Indemnitee is or was affiliated
with one or more venture capital funds that has invested in the Company (an “Appointing Shareholder”), and (ii) the Appointing Shareholder is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or a participant in any Proceeding
relating to or arising by reason of Appointing Shareholder’s position as a shareholder of, or lender to, the Company, or Appointing Shareholder’s appointment of or affiliation with Indemnitee or any other director, including without
limitation any alleged misappropriation of a Company asset or corporate opportunity, any claim of misappropriation or infringement of intellectual property relating to the Company, any alleged false or misleading statement or omission made by the
Company (or on its behalf) or its employees or agents, or any allegation of inappropriate control or influence over the Company or its Board members, officers, equity holders or debt holders, then the Appointing Shareholder will be entitled to
indemnification hereunder for Expenses to the same extent as Indemnitee, and the terms of this Agreement as they relate to procedures for indemnification of Indemnitee and advancement of Expenses shall apply to any such indemnification of Appointing
Shareholder. 
 The rights provided to the Appointing Shareholder under this Section 1(d) shall (i) be suspended during any
period during which the Appointing Shareholder does not have a representative on the Company’s Board and (ii) terminate on an initial public offering of the Company’s Ordinary Shares; provided, however, that in the event of any such
suspension or termination, the Appointing Shareholder’s rights to indemnification will not be suspended or terminated with respect to any Proceeding based in whole or in part on facts and circumstances occurring at any time prior to such
suspension or termination regardless of whether the Proceeding arises before or after such suspension or termination. The Company and Indemnitee agree that the Appointing Shareholder is an express third party beneficiary of the terms of this
Section 1(d). 
 Any Appointing Shareholder not being a party to this Agreement may enforce any rights granted to it pursuant to this
Agreement in its own right as if it were a party to this Agreement. Except as expressly provided in the previous sentence, a person who is not a party to this Agreement shall not have any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Law (as
amended) to enforce any term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any term of this Agreement, the consent of or notice to any person who is not a party to this Agreement shall not be required for any termination, rescission or agreement to any
variation, waiver, assignment, novation, release or settlement under this Agreement at any time.]

 2. Additional Indemnity. In addition to, and without regard to any limitations on, the
indemnification provided for in Section 1 of this Agreement, the Company shall and hereby does indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually
and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf if, by reason of his Corporate Status, he is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company), including, without
limitation, all liability arising out of the negligence or active or passive wrongdoing of Indemnitee. The only limitation that shall exist upon the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement shall be that the Company shall not be
obligated to make any payment to Indemnitee that is finally determined (under the procedures, and subject to the presumptions, set forth in Sections 6 and 7 hereof) to be unlawful or for claims arising from the Indemnitee’s
dishonesty, willful default or fraud. 
 3. Contribution. 

(a) Whether or not the indemnification provided in Sections 1 and 2 hereof is available, in respect of any threatened, pending
or completed action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), the Company shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount of any judgment or settlement
of such action, suit or proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have against Indemnitee. The Company shall not enter into any settlement of
any action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.

 (b) Without diminishing or impairing the obligations of the Company set forth in the preceding subparagraph, if, for any reason,
Indemnitee shall elect or be required to pay all or any portion of any judgment or settlement in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such
action, suit or proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the amount of Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by Indemnitee in proportion to the relative benefits received
by the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand,
from the transaction or events from which such action, suit or proceeding arose; provided, however, that the proportion determined on the basis of relative benefit may, to the extent necessary to conform to law, be further adjusted by reference to
the relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on
the other hand, in connection with the transaction or events that resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as any other equitable considerations which applicable law may require to be considered. The relative fault
of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand,
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the degree to which their actions were motivated by intent to gain personal profit or advantage, the degree to which their liability is primary or secondary and the degree to which their
conduct is active or passive. 

  
 4 

 (c) The Company hereby agrees to fully indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless from any claims of
contribution which may be brought by officers, directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee, except for claims arising from the Indemnitee’s dishonesty, willful default or fraud. 

(d) To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to
Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for
Expenses, in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative
benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding and/or (ii) the relative fault of the Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) and Indemnitee
in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s). 
 4. Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a witness, or is made (or asked) to respond to discovery requests, in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party, he shall be indemnified
against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. 
 5. Advancement of Expenses.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall advance all Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status within thirty (30) days after
the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the
Expenses incurred by Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall qualify for advances upon the execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement, which shall constitute an undertaking by Indemnitee to repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately be
determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses. Any advances and undertakings to repay pursuant to this Section 5 shall be unsecured and interest free. 

6. Procedures and Presumptions for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. It is the intent of this Agreement to secure for
Indemnitee rights of indemnity that are as favorable as may be permitted under the Companies Law, as amended, public policy and other applicable law of the Cayman Islands. Accordingly, the parties agree that the following procedures and presumptions
shall apply in the event of any question as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement: 
 (a) To obtain
indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine
whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any failure of Indemnitee to provide such a request to the Company, or to provide such a request in a timely fashion, shall not relieve the Company of any liability that it may have to Indemnitee unless, and to the
extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the interests of the Company. 

  
 5 

 (b) Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of
Section 6(a) hereof, a determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case by one of the following four methods, which shall be at the election of the Board: (1) by a
majority vote of the disinterested directors, provided such disinterested directors form a quorum, (2) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by a majority vote of the disinterested directors, (3) if there are no
disinterested directors or if the committee of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Indemnitee, or (4) if so directed by the Board, by the
shareholders of the Company by an ordinary resolution. For purposes hereof, disinterested directors are those members of the Board who are not parties to the action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee.

 (c) If the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to
Section 6(b) hereof, the Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 6(c). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board. Indemnitee may, within ten (10) days
after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not
meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 13 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely
objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If a written objection is made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has
determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty (20) days after the conclusion of the Proceeding giving rise to the request for indemnification, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the
Company or Indemnitee may petition the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Indemnitee to the Company’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent
Counsel of a person selected by the court or by such other person as the court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under
Section 6(b) hereof. The Company shall pay any and all reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to Section 6(b)
hereof, and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the procedures of this Section 6(c), regardless of the manner in which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed. 

(d) In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such
determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof by clear and convincing evidence. Neither the failure of the Company
(including by its directors or independent legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable

  
 6 

 
standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by its directors or independent legal counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be
a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. 
 (e) Indemnitee shall be
deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise (as hereinafter defined), including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the
Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert
selected with reasonable care by the Enterprise. In addition, the knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to
indemnification under this Agreement. Whether or not the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e) are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof by clear and convincing evidence. 

(f) If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 6 to determine whether Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after the conclusion of the Proceeding giving rise to the request for indemnification, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall be
deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially
misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such sixty (60)-day period may be extended for a
reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time to obtain or evaluate
documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(f) shall not apply if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the
shareholders pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen (15) days after the conclusion of the Proceeding giving rise to the request for indemnification, the Board or the Disinterested
Directors, if appropriate, resolve to submit such determination to the shareholders for their consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy-five (75) days after such resolution and such determination is made thereat, or
(B) a special meeting of shareholders is called within fifteen (15) days after such resolution and such meeting is held for such purpose within sixty (60) days after having been so called and such determination is made thereat. 

(g) Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to
indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee
and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any Independent Counsel, member of the Board or shareholder of the Company shall act reasonably and in good faith in making a determination regarding the Indemnitee’s entitlement to

  
 7 

 
indemnification under this Agreement. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making
such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom. 

(h) The Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful if it permits a party to avoid
expense, delay, distraction, disruption and uncertainty. In the event that any action, claim or proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation,
settlement of such action, claim or proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in such action, suit or proceeding. Anyone seeking to
overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof by clear and convincing evidence. 
 (i) The termination of any Proceeding or of
any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of
Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding,
that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. 
 7. Remedies of Indemnitee. 

(a) In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is
not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification is made
pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement within ninety (90) days after the conclusion of the Proceeding giving rise to the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification required by Section 4
is not made pursuant to this Agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication in Grand Court of the Cayman Islands of
Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification. Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding seeking an adjudication within one hundred eighty (180) days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding
pursuant to this Section 7(a). The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication. 

(b) In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement that
Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial on the merits, and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by
reason of the adverse determination under Section 6(b). 

  
 8 

 (c) If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(b)
of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7, absent (i) a misstatement by
Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s misstatement not materially misleading in connection with the application for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification
under applicable law. 
 (d) In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section 7, seeks a judicial
adjudication of his rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, or to recover under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, the Company shall pay on his behalf, in
advance, any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses in Section 13 of this Agreement) actually and reasonably incurred by him in such judicial adjudication, regardless of whether Indemnitee
ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance recovery. 
 (e) The Company shall be
precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court
that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written
request therefore) advance, to the extent not prohibited by law, such expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advance of Expenses from the Company under this
Agreement or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of Expenses or insurance
recovery, as the case may be. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement to
indemnification under this Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding. 
 8. Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification; Subrogation. 
 (a) The
rights of indemnification as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the articles of association, any agreement, a vote of shareholders, a
resolution of directors of the Company, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by
such Indemnitee in his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in the Companies Law, as amended, of the Cayman Islands, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification than
would be afforded currently under the articles of association of the Company and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy
herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy. 

  
 9 

 (b) To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability
insurance for directors, officers, employees, or agents or fiduciaries of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that such person serves at the request of the Company,
Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary under such policy or policies. If, at the time of
the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in
accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding
in accordance with the terms of such policies. 
 (c) [The Company hereby acknowledges that Indemnitee has certain rights to
indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by [•] and certain of its affiliates (collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”). The Company hereby agrees (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort
(i.e., its obligations to Indemnitee are primary and any obligation of the Fund Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Indemnitee are secondary), (ii) that it shall be required
to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this
Agreement and the [memorandum and articles of association] of the Company (or any other agreement between the Company and Indemnitee), without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against the Fund Indemnitors, and, (iii) that it irrevocably
waives, relinquishes and releases the Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment
by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to
the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee against the Company. The Company and Indemnitee agree that the Fund Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 8(c).Any
Fund Indemnitor not being a party to this Agreement may enforce any rights granted to it pursuant to this Agreement in its own right as if it were a party to this Agreement. Except as expressly provided in the previous sentence, a person who is not
a party to this Agreement shall not have any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Law (as amended) to enforce any term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any term of this Agreement, the consent of or notice to any person who is not a
party to this Agreement shall not be required for any termination, rescission or agreement to any variation, waiver, assignment, novation, release or settlement under this Agreement at any time.] 

(d) [Except as provided in paragraph (c) above,] in the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to
the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee [(other than against the Fund Indemnitors)], who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents
as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights. 

  
 10 

 (e) [Except as provided in paragraph (c) above,] the Company shall not be liable under this
Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise. 

(f) [Except as provided in paragraph (c) above,] the Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee
who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has
actually received as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise. 

9. Exception to Right of Indemnification. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under
this Agreement to make any indemnity in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee: 
 (a) for which payment has actually been made
to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except with respect to any excess beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision[, provided, that the foregoing shall not affect

may at any time and from time to time provide security to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit, funded trust or other collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not
be revoked or released without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee. 
 12. Enforcement. 

(a) The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumes the obligations imposed on it hereby in
order to induce Indemnitee to serve as an officer or director of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as an officer or director of the Company.

prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

(c) The Company shall not seek from a court, or agree to, an order which would have the effect of prohibiting or limiting the
Indemnitee’s rights to receive advancement of expenses under this Agreement. 
 13. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:

 (a) “Corporate Status” describes the status of a person who is or was a director, officer, employee, agent or
fiduciary of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise that such person is or was serving at the express written request of the Company.

Expenses incurred in connection with any appeal 

  
 12 

 
resulting from any Proceeding and any taxes imposed on the Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement, including without limitation the premium,

Agreement, or of other indemnitees under similar indemnification agreements), or (ii) any other party to the Proceeding giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent
Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s
rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Counsel referred to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto. 
 (f) “Proceeding” includes any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution mechanism, investigation, inquiry, administrative hearing or any other actual, threatened or completed proceeding, whether brought by or in the right of the Company or otherwise and whether

his or her Corporate Status; in each case whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement; including one pending on or before
the date of this Agreement, but excluding one initiated by an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement to enforce his rights under this Agreement. 

14. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of
any other provision. Further, the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof as to either Indemnitee or Appointing Shareholder shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any provision hereof as to the other. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to confer upon Indemnitee and Appointing Shareholder indemnification rights to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws. In the event any provision hereof conflicts with any
applicable law, such provision shall be deemed modified, consistent with the aforementioned intent, to the extent necessary to resolve such conflict.

being served with or otherwise receiving any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification covered hereunder. The failure to so notify
the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation which it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise unless and only to the extent that such failure or delay materially prejudices the Company.

 Indemnification AgreementEX-10.7

 Exhibit 10.7 

Employment Agreement 
 This Employment Agreement
(“Agreement”) is entered into effective as of February 15th, 2016, by and between MeiraGTx LLC (“Meira”), a Delaware limited liability company, and its parent MeiraGTx Limited
and subsidiaries (together, the “Company” or “MeiraGTx”), and Alexandria Forbes (“Employee”). 
 In consideration of the
mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and Employee hereby agree as follows: 

1. Position of Employment. Meira will employ the Employee in the position of Chief Executive Officer and President of Meira and, in that position,
Employee will report directly to the Board of Directors of Meira. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any Company policies, procedures, and practices, the terms of this Agreement shall govern. Except as disclosed on Exhibit 1,
Employee shall not undertake, either as an owner, director, shareholder, employee, or otherwise, the performance of services for compensation (actual or expected) for any other entity without the express written consent of the Board of Directors of
Meira. 
 2. Term of Employment. Employee’s employment with Meira shall begin on February 15th, 2016, and shall continue until February 15th, 2019. Unless Employee or Meira gives notice of
non-renewal to the other party at least 90 days before the expiration of the 3-year initial term (or each 1- year successive
term), this Agreement and Employee’s employment shall be automatically renewed and extended for additional 1-year periods. During a term, Employee’s employment may be terminated only in accordance
with Section 4 of this Agreement. 
 3. Compensation and Benefits. 

A. Base Salary. Employee shall initially be paid a base salary of $390,000 in cash annually by Meira, to be paid in accordance with
Meira’s regular payroll policies but no less frequently than twice per month (“Base Salary”). Employee’s Base Salary shall be increased to $450,000 in cash annually as of the first day of the first payroll period following when
the Company raises a total of $25 million in debt or equity, or a combination thereof, in one or more private placements (including any debt or equity already raised prior to the time of this Agreement). Employee’s Base Salary shall be
increased to $580,000 in cash annually as of the first day of the first payroll period following the earlier of (i) the date a registration statement for a class of the Company’s securities becomes effective; or (ii) the date of a
Change in Control of Meira or the Company (as defined in Section 5); or (iii) the date when the Company raises a total of $75 million in debt or equity, in one or more private placements or strategic collaborations or corporate
partnerships with another company (including any debt or equity already raised prior to the time of this Agreement). In addition, Employee’s Base Salary shall be reviewed annually or periodically in accordance with Meira’s normal
compensation review cycle, but any increase above the amounts herein specified shall be in the sole discretion of Meira management, and nothing herein shall be deemed to require any such increase other than as set forth above; provided, however,
that Employee’s Base Salary shall not be reduced. 

  
 1 

 B. Bonuses. 

i. Annual Bonus. Employee’s Annual Guaranteed Cash Bonus from Meira shall be 100% of Employee’s Base Salary in effect at the
time of payment. It shall be paid by January 15 of the following year. 
 ii. Performance Bonus. Employee’s Annual
Performance Cash Bonus from Meira shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of Meira and shall be targeted at no less than 60% of salary. It shall be paid by January 15 of the following year. (For the avoidance of doubt, the Annual
Performance Cash Bonus is in addition to the Annual Guaranteed Cash bonus.) 
 iii. Annual Performance Grants of Restricted Stock.
Employee shall be granted restricted stock for each year by January 15 of the following year, in amounts as determined by the Compensation Committee of Meira and the Company. Each grant of restricted stock shall become fully vested and
owned by Employee quarterly in 1/12 increments over 3 years from the date of grant. While the Company is private, any income taxes owed by Employee from the grant of restricted stock at time of vesting shall be paid by the Company. 

C. Equity Incentives: 
 i. The
Company shall grant to Employee, as soon as the Compensation Committee deems reasonable but no longer than 3 (three) months after the Company has raised not less than $70 million in debt or equity, or a combination thereof, in one or more
private placements or strategic collaborations with another company (including any debt or equity already raised prior to the time of this Agreement), fully vested and owned shares representing an additional 1.50 percent of the fully diluted
outstanding shares of the Company, where any income taxes owed by Employee shall be paid by the Company at time of grant. Employee agrees not to sell or transfer these shares for a period of 12 months from the date of their grant (“lock-up period”). 
 ii. The Company shall grant to Employee, as of the date of the earlier of
(i) the date a registration statement for a class of the Company’s securities become effective, or (ii) the date of a Change in Control (as defined in Section 5) of Meira or the Company, restricted stock representing an
additional 2.50 percent of the fully diluted outstanding shares of the Company at the time (in the case of an IPO, the 2.50 percent shall be as of immediately after the shares are issued and offered for the IPO). 1/3 of this grant shall
vest immediately and the remaining 2/3 shall vest quarterly in 1/8 increments over the next 2 years from the date of grant. The Company shall pay any income taxes owed by employee as a result of the grant at the time of vesting. 

  
 2 

 iii. The Company shall grant to Employee, as of the first day of the first payroll period after
Meira or the Company becomes partially or wholly publicly owned, or becomes a subsidiary or parent of an entity that is partially or wholly publicly owned, as a result one or more strategic collaborations (including but not limited to a merger or
acquisition): the equity incentives in both a. and b. of this section, where a. is: “fully vested and owned shares representing an additional 1.50 percent of the fully diluted outstanding shares of the Company, where any income taxes owed
by Employee shall be paid by the Company at time of grant. Employee agrees not to sell or transfer these shares for a period of 12 months from the date of their grant (“lock-up period”)”; and
where b. is: “restricted stock representing an additional 2.50 percent of the fully diluted outstanding shares of the Company at the time”, if sections a. and b. have not already been granted. 

D. Strategic Collaboration Bonus. The Company shall grant to Employee, as of the first day of the first payroll period after the Company
has completed a strategic collaboration with another company, a cash bonus, if such collaboration(s) results in upfront payments of any kind, including but not limited to cash, equity, research or collaboration upfront consideration for Meira (there
is no limit to the number of collaboration bonuses per annum). The cash bonus payment shall be at the discretion of the Compensation Committee provided, however, that such bonus shall not be less than 1.0% of the total upfront payments (including
any cash, equity or other upfront consideration) received by Meira in any collaboration. 
 E. Incentive and Deferred Compensation.
Employee shall be eligible to participate in all incentive and deferred compensation programs available to executive officers of Meira from time to time on the same terms and conditions and extent that such programs are made available to other
such executives or officers of Meira. 
 F. Employee Benefits. Employee shall be eligible to participate in all employee benefit
plans, policies, programs, or perquisites made available to employees of Meira generally or to executive officers of Meira, including any broad-based or executive stock option and stock purchase plans. The terms and conditions of Employee’s
participation in Meira’s employee benefit plans, policies, programs, or perquisites shall be governed by the terms and conditions or practices of each such plan, policy, or program, or perquisite. 

4. Termination of Employment. Employee’s employment with Meira may be terminated, prior to the expiration of the term of this Agreement, in
accordance with the following provision: 
 A. Termination by Employee Without Good Reason. The Employee may terminate Employee’s
employment without Good Reason (as defined in Section 4.D. of this Agreement) at any time by giving three months’ notice to the Board of Meira, except that such notice is not required if the Good Reason is as defined in Section 4-D.(vi) or (vii). 
 Upon termination by the Employee of Employee’s employment without
Good Reason under this Section 4.A., Employee shall (i) be entitled to her Base Salary, Guaranteed Cash Bonuses, and Performance Cash Bonuses targeted at no less than 60% of her Base Salary as if her employment had continued for a period

C. Termination by Meira for any reason other than Cause. Meira may terminate Employee’s employment for any reason other than Cause

giving three months’ notice to the Employee. During the notice period, Employee shall remain in active employment or non-active employment as Meira may decide; provided, that Meira or the Employee may
choose instead for Meira to give Employee severance pay in the amount of the remaining notice period in lieu of continued employment, to be paid within 30 days of Employee’s last date of actual employment. 

Upon termination by Meira of Employee’s employment for any reason other than Cause under this Section 4.C., Employee shall
(i) be entitled to her Base Salary, Guaranteed Cash Bonuses, and Performance Cash Bonuses targeted at no less than 60% of Base Salary as if her employment had continued for the greater of a period of 24 months from termination and such amount
of time as remains until the end of the then current term under Section 2 above, including pro-rated Guaranteed Cash Bonuses and Performance Cash Bonuses targeted at 60% of Base Salary for any stub

at no less than 60% of Base Salary for calendar year 2017 on 1/15/18 and for calendar year 2018 on 1/15/19, and 6.5/12 of Employee’s Guaranteed Cash Bonus and Performance Cash Bonus targeted at 60% of Base Salary for 2019 on 1/15/20), to be

upon a termination, (iv) be entitled to keep any restricted stock and equity incentive awards granted under this Agreement or otherwise that have been triggered and are vested as of the termination date, (v) be deemed upon termination
fully vested in and owning any restricted stock and equity incentive awards granted under this Agreement or otherwise (including under the Performance Based Equity Incentive Agreement) that are unvested on the date of termination, (vi) be
granted upon and as of the termination date fully vested and owned shares for all of the restricted stock not yet granted but provided for under Section 3-C.ii. or otherwise (including under the
Performance Based Equity Incentive Agreement) as if all conditions in those sections were met, and (vii) be paid, within 30 days of termination, a cash termination fee equivalent to 1.50% of the Market Value (as defined below) of the Company
shares on average during the 90-trading day period prior to the termination where any taxes owed by Employee as a result of the termination fee are to be paid by the Company (“Market Value” shall
mean (a) the number computed by multiplying (i) the aggregate worldwide number of shares of the Company’s voting and non-voting common equity (including stock held by employees and affiliates)

the Company’s equity resulting from forward or reverse stock splits). All of these amounts shall be paid regardless of whether Employee obtains subsequent employment. 

D. Termination by the Employee for Good Reason. The Employee may terminate Employee’s employment at any time for Good Reason. For
purposes of this Section 4.D., “Good Reason” shall mean a termination of employment by the Employee for one or more of the following reasons: (i) any material diminution of the Employee’s title, duties, work
responsibilities, authority, or status, or the assignment of duties that would typically be performed by a Chief Executive Officer and/or President to someone other than Employee;(ii) a material negative change in Employee’s reporting structure

(vi) a breach by Meira or the Company of this Agreement, which 

  
 5 

 
breach is not remedied or corrected within 30 days after notice from the Employee to the Company of such breach; (vii) Meira’s or the Company’s insistence that Employee perform or
condone any illegal conduct; or (viii) a hostile or abusive work environment or harassment (regardless of whether based on a statutorily protected characteristic such as race, age, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or the like, and regardless
of whether such hostile or abusive work environment or harassment is severe or pervasive), including but not limited to verbal abuse such as the use of derogatory remarks, insults, and epithets; verbal,
non-verbal, or physical conduct of a threatening, intimidating, or humiliating nature; the sabotage or undermining of Employee’s work performance; bullying; or retaliation for a good faith complaint that
a hostile or abusive work environment or harassment exists. 
 Upon termination by the Employee of Employee’s employment for Good Reason
under this Section 4.D., Employee shall be entitled to the same rights and payments as if Employee’s employment had been terminated by Meira for any reason other than Cause pursuant to Section 4.C. of this Agreement.

 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT 

This Employment Agreement Amendment (the “Amendment”) is made as of May 28, 2018 (the “Amendment Date”)
by and among MeiraGTx Limited and MeiraGTx LLC (together, the “Company”) and Alexandria Forbes (the “Employee”). Except as set forth in this Amendment, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Employment Agreement (as defined below). 
 WITNESSETH 

WHEREAS, Employee previously entered into an employment agreement with the Company effective as of February 15, 2016 (the
“Employment Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Employee and the Company each desire to amend the terms of the Employment
Agreement as set forth in this Amendment. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the Employee and the Company hereby agree to the following: 
  

	1.	Amendment to the Employment Agreement. Effective as of the Amendment Date, the Employment Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Section 8.I as follows: 

I. Section 409A. 

i. The intent of the parties is that the payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with or be exempt from
Section 409A (“Section 409A”) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (the “Code”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement
shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. 
 ii. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any
compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement that is designated under this Agreement as payable upon Employee’s termination of employment shall be payable only upon Employee’s “separation from service” with the Company
within the meaning of Section 409A (a “Separation from Service”). 
 iii. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, if Employee is deemed by the Company at the time of Employee’s Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the
benefits to which Employee is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A, such portion of Employee’s benefits shall not be provided to Employee prior to the earlier of
(i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of Employee’s Separation from Service with the Company or (ii) the date of Employee’s death. Upon the first business day
following the expiration of the applicable Section 409A period, all payments deferred pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid in a lump sum to Employee (or Employee’s estate or beneficiaries), and any remaining payments due to
Employee under this Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein. 

 iv. To the extent that any reimbursements under this Agreement are subject to
Section 409A, any such reimbursements payable to Employee shall be paid to Employee no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred; provided, that Employee submits Employee’s reimbursement
request promptly following the date the expense is incurred, the amount of expenses reimbursed in one year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement in any subsequent year, other than medical expenses referred to in Section 105(b)
of the Code, and Employee’s right to reimbursement under this Agreement will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 

v. Except as otherwise permitted under Section 409A, no payment hereunder shall be accelerated or deferred unless such
acceleration or deferral would not result in additional tax or interest pursuant to Section 409A. 
  

	2.	No Other Amendment. Except as expressly set forth in this Amendment, the Employment Agreement shall remain unchanged and shall continue in full force and effect according to its terms. 

 

	3.	Entire Agreement. This Amendment, together with the Employment Agreement (to the extent not amended hereby), represents the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall
supersede any and all previous contracts, arrangements or understandings between the parties.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Employee have executed this Amendment as of the date
first written above.
