In the event of any inconsistency between an initial Early Clinical Development Plan and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will prevail.

Plan Adoption Subject to Qualification. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the adoption of the Plan and the execution of the Trust Agreement are conditioned upon their being determined initially by the Internal Revenue Service to meet the qualification requirements of Section 401(a) of the Code, so that the Employers may deduct currently for federal income tax purposes their contributions to the Trust and so that the Participants may exclude the contributions from their gross income and recognize income only when they receive benefits. In the event that this Plan is held by the Internal Revenue Service not to qualify initially under [Section 401(a)], the Plan may be amended retroactively to the earliest date permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulations in order to secure qualification under [Section 401(a)]. If this Plan is held by the Internal Revenue Service not to qualify initially under [Section 401(a)] either as originally adopted or as amended, each Employer’s contributions to the Trust under this Plan (including any earnings thereon) shall be returned to it and this Plan shall be terminated. In the event that this Plan is amended after its initial qualification and the Plan as amended is held by the Internal Revenue Service not to qualify under [Section 401(a)], the amendment may be modified retroactively to the earliest date permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulations in order to secure approval of the amendment under [Section 401(a)]. In addition, reversions of Employer contributions (including earnings or losses attributable thereto) are permitted within one year after the applicable determination date, if the reversion is due to a good faith mistake of fact.

Date of Adoption, Effective Date. The Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on April 27, 2022, and will become effective on June 23, 2022, if approved by the shareholders of the Company on June 23, 2022 in accordance with applicable law (such approval date, the “Effective Date”).
