3.	Subcontracting and Assignment. The Consultant will not, without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent the Company may in its sole discretion withhold), subcontract, delegate or otherwise assign any or all of the Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement.

TERM AND TERMINATION

This Agreement may be renewed for a subsequent period or periods of twelve months or more, upon mutual consent of both parties. This Agreement may be terminated as described in Schedule A.

The rights and responsibilities of the Parties under Paragraphs 1, 5-10, and 12-15 survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

6.	FEES AND EXPENSES

Fees and Expenses.

In consideration for performing the Services, the Company will pay the Consultant a monthly fee of US$19,000 (nineteen thousand US dollars). Each such monthly payment shall be made on or before the first business day of the succeeding month. The Company will reimburse the Consultant in accordance with its normal policies and practices for the Consultant’s reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses or disbursements actually and necessarily incurred or made by the Consultant in connection with the performance of the Services (collectively, “Expenses”). All Expenses will be reimbursed within five business days of submission of receipts and expense reimbursement request. Any individual expense exceeding US$500 (five hundred US dollars) requires advance written approval from ProMIS Neurosciences. During the contract term, it is understood that the Consultant shall be available for the requirements of ProMIS to achieve the objectives set out in Appendix A. During the contract term, it is also understood that the Consultant will devote, on average over any calendar month, 50% of his time to achieve the Objectives set forth in Appendix A.

On or before the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Company will provide the Consultant a copy of the ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. Stock Option Plan approved the Board of Directors (the “Option Plan”) and all other documents setting forth the terms and conditions applicable to options in the Company. Within 30 days of the Effective Date of this Agreement, ProMIS will award 1.85MM stock options to the Consultant, on standard terms and conditions governing such options applicable to other option holders under the Option Plan, subject to final approval by the Board of Directors. The Company will grant the options at a strike price equal to the volume weighted average share price of the preceding 5 trading days and shall have a 10-year exercise period from the date the options have been granted to the Consultant. The share options will vest in equal monthly portions over 48 months. In case of “Change of Control” or other “Triggering Event” as those terms are defined in the Option Plan, all options, whether vested or not, will immediately vest. Upon termination of this Agreement by the Company without cause, all vested options will be vested and be exercisable in accordance with the Option Plan.

Any Option Commitment (as defined in the ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. Stock Option Plan) or stock option agreement between the parties shall include the terms set out in this paragraph 3.0(b) of the Option Plan. ProMIS hereby represents and warrants that all necessary corporate action has been taken by or on behalf of ProMIS to grant the Options in accordance with this paragraph 3.0(b) of the Option Plan.

Taxes and Benefits. The Consultant represents, warrants and covenants that the Consultant is acting and will act only as independent contractor (and, in any event, never as an employee of the Company). The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that, in its performance under this Agreement, neither the Consultant nor either Consultant Representative, will be entitled to any employee-like benefits or any direct or indirect compensation other than that expressly set out in this Agreement. The Consultant will, as an independent contractor, collect and/or remit as required, all amounts, and will register with any workers’ compensation entities or other governmental bodies, and deal with all tax and other requirements, and satisfy all applicable compliance requirements, as required or permitted under law by all municipal, provincial, state or federal governments. The Consultant agrees that the Company will not be responsible for registering under any workers’ compensation legislation or for withholding or remitting any amounts for income taxes, social security taxes, (un)employment insurance, or other deductions that would be required in an employment relationship in any jurisdiction.

Insurance. The Company will maintain insurance coverage in accordance with normal Company business practices, including Directors & Officers Liability Insurance, Professional Liability Insurance and General Liability Insurance. As the Consultant will be serving as Chief Medical Officer, an appointed officer of the Company, it is the Company’s intent that the Consultant will be entitled to coverage under such insurance policies to the same extent as all other officers of the Company.
