INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

PURSUANT TO THE

VIR BIOTECHNOLOGY, INC.

2016 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Pursuant to the Grant Notice to which this Agreement is attached, the Company has granted to Participant an Option under the Plan to purchase the number of Shares indicated in the Grant Notice.

Preliminary Statement

The Committee hereby grants this stock option (the “Option”) as of the Grant Date pursuant to the Vir Biotechnology, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”), to purchase the number of shares of the common stock of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), set forth in the Grant Notice, to the Participant, as an Eligible Employee of the Company or one of its Affiliates (collectively, the Company and all of its Affiliates shall be referred to as the “Employer”). Except as otherwise indicated, any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Grant Notice or the Plan, as applicable. A copy of the Plan has been delivered to the Participant. By signing and returning this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges having received and read a copy of the Plan and agrees to comply with it, this Agreement and all applicable laws and regulations.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Tax Matters. The Option is intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Option will not qualify as an “incentive stock option,” among other events, (i) if the Participant disposes of any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Option at any time during the two (2) year period following the date of this Agreement or the one (1) year period following the date on which the Option is exercised; (ii) except in the event of the Participant’s death or disability, as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, if the Participant is not employed by the Company, any “parent corporation” of the Company within the meaning of Section 424(e) of the Code (“Parent”), or any “subsidiary corporation” within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code (“Subsidiary”), at all times during the period beginning on the Grant Date (as defined herein) and ending on the day three (3) months before the date of exercise of the Option; or (iii) to the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Option is granted) of the shares of Common Stock subject to “incentive stock options” which become exercisable for the first time by the Participant in any calendar year exceeds $100,000. To the extent that the Option does not qualify as an “incentive stock option,” it shall not affect the validity of the Option and shall constitute a separate non-qualified stock option.

2. Common Stock Subject to Option; Exercise Price. Subject in all respects to the Plan and the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein, the Option entitles the Participant to purchase from the Company, upon exercise, the Total Number of Shares Subject to Option (as set forth in the Grant Notice ) at the Exercise Price per Share (as set forth in the Grant Notice).

3. Vesting; Exercise.

(a) Subject to Section 3(b), the Option shall vest and become exercisable over a [four-year period commencing on the Vesting Commencement Date, with 25% of the Option vesting on the one-year anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, and the remainder of the Option vesting in 36 equal installments beginning on the date that is the one-month anniversary of such one-year anniversary date, and each one-month anniversary date thereafter; provided, however, that the Participant has not experienced a Termination prior to each applicable vesting date.]

(b) To the extent that the Option has become vested and exercisable with respect to a number of shares of Common Stock, the Option may thereafter be exercised by the Participant, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the expiration of the Option in accordance with the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant may not exercise the Option unless the offering of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise (i) is then registered under the Securities Act, or, if such offering is not then so registered, the Company has determined that such offering is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and (ii) complies with all other applicable laws and regulations governing the Option, and the Participant may not exercise the Option if the Committee determines that such exercise would not be so registered or exempt and otherwise in compliance with such laws and regulations.

(i) execute and deliver to the Company a properly completed Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I.

(ii) execute and deliver such other documentation as required by the Committee (including, without limitation, the Stockholder Agreements) which may set forth certain restrictions on transferability of the shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise, a right of first refusal or a right of first offer of the Company and other Persons with respect to shares, and such other terms or restrictions as the Board or Committee may from time to time establish, including any drag along rights, tag along rights, transfer restrictions and registration rights, and

(iii) remit the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company in full, payable (A) in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; or (B) on such other terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Committee (including, without limitation, making arrangements with the Company to have such Exercise Price withheld from other compensation).

(d) In addition, unless otherwise directed or permitted by the Committee, the Participant must pay or provide for all applicable withholding taxes in respect of the exercise of the Option, by (i) remitting the aggregate amount of such taxes to the Company in full, in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company, or (ii) making arrangements with the Company to have such taxes withheld from other compensation, to the extent permitted by the Committee.

4. Termination. The term of the Option shall be until the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date, after which time it shall expire (the “Expiration Date”), subject to earlier termination in the event of the Participant’s Termination as specified in the Plan and this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the Expiration Date, the Option (whether vested or not) shall be immediately forfeited, canceled and terminated for no consideration and no longer shall be exercisable. The provisions in the Plan regarding Termination shall apply to the Option, provided that, to the extent applicable, if the Participant’s employment agreement expressly provides more favorable rights with respect to the Option in the event of Termination, such rights shall apply.

Page 2 of 5

5. Market Stand-Off. If requested by the Company or the lead underwriter of any public offering of the Common Stock (the “Lead Underwriter”), the Participant shall irrevocably agree not to sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase, transfer the economic risk of ownership in, make any short sale of, pledge or otherwise Transfer or dispose of, any interest in any Common Stock or any securities convertible into, derivative of, or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock, or any other rights to purchase or acquire Common Stock (except Common Stock included in such public offering or acquired on the public market after such offering) during such period of time following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act that the Lead Underwriter shall specify (the “Lock-up Period”). The Participant shall further agree to sign such documents as may be requested by the Lead Underwriter or the Company to effect the foregoing and agree that the Company may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to Common Stock acquired pursuant to an Award until the end of such Lock-up Period.

6. Restriction on Transfer of Option. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in accordance with the Plan, (a) no part of the Option shall be Transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and (b) during the lifetime of the Participant, the Option may be exercised only by the Participant. Any attempt to Transfer the Option other than in accordance with the Plan shall be void.

7. No Rights as Stockholder. The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by the Option unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends (whether in cash, in kind or other property), distributions or other rights in respect of any such shares, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan.

8. Provisions of Plan Control. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan, including the amendment provisions thereof, and to such rules, regulations and interpretations relating to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee and as may be in effect from time to time.

9. Withholding of Taxes. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any payment to be made to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement, or to otherwise require, prior to the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common Stock or the payment of any cash hereunder, payment by the Participant of, any Federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld.

10. No Right to Employment. This Agreement is not an agreement of employment. None of this Agreement, the Plan or the grant of the Option hereunder shall (a) guarantee that the Employer will employ the Participant for any specific time period or (b) modify or limit in any respect the Employer’s right to terminate or modify the Participant’s employment or compensation. Moreover, this Agreement is not intended to and does not amend any existing employment contract between the Participant and the Company or any of its Affiliates; to the extent there is a conflict between this Agreement and such an employment contract, the employment contract shall govern and take priority.

Preliminary Statement

The Committee hereby grants this stock option (the “Option”) as of the Grant Date pursuant to the Vir Biotechnology, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”), to purchase the number of shares of the common stock of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), set forth in the Grant Notice, to the Participant, as [an Eligible Employee][a Consultant] of the Company. Except as otherwise indicated, any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Grant Notice or the Plan, as applicable. A copy of the Plan has been delivered to the Participant. By signing and returning this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges having received and read a copy of the Plan and agrees to comply with it, this Agreement and all applicable laws and regulations.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Tax Matters. No part of the Option granted hereby is intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under section 422 of the Code.

3. Vesting; Exercise.

(b) To the extent that the Option has become vested and exercisable with respect to a number of shares of Common Stock, the Option may thereafter be exercised by the Participant, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the expiration of the Option in accordance with Section 4 and the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant may not exercise the Option unless the offering of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise (i) is then registered under the Securities Act, or, if such offering is not then so registered, the Company has determined that such offering is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and (ii) complies with all other applicable laws and regulations governing the Option, and the Participant may not exercise the Option if the Committee determines that such exercise would not be so registered or exempt and otherwise in compliance with such laws and regulations.

The term of the Option shall be until the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date, after which time it shall expire (the “Expiration Date”), subject to earlier termination in the event of the Participant’s Termination as specified in the Plan and this Agreement.

2016 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

This RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is effective as of [●], 20__ (the “Grant Date”), between Vir Biotechnology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [●] (the “Participant”).

Terms and Conditions

The Committee hereby grants to the Participant as [an Eligible Employee][a Consultant] of the Company or any of its Affiliates, as of [●], 20__ (the “Grant Date”), pursuant to the Vir Biotechnology, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”), the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock set forth in Section 1 below. Except as otherwise indicated, any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Plan. A copy of the Plan has been delivered to the Participant. By signing and returning this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges having received and read a copy of the Plan and agrees to comply with the Plan, this Agreement and all applicable laws and regulations.

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

21. Grant of Shares. Subject in all respects to the Plan and the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein, effective as of the Grant Date, the Company hereby awards to the Participant [●] shares of its Common Stock. Such shares are subject to certain restrictions set forth in Section 2 hereof, which restrictions shall lapse at the times provided under Section 2(b) hereof. For the period during which such restrictions are in effect, the shares of Common Stock subject to such restrictions are referred to herein as the “Restricted Stock.” The Restricted Stock, in the sole discretion of the Committee, shall be evidenced by a certificate or be credited to a book entry account maintained by the Company (or its designee) on behalf of the Participant and such certificate or book entry (as applicable) shall be noted appropriately to record the restrictions on the Restricted Stock imposed hereby.

22. Restricted Stock.

(a) Rights as a Stockholder. Prior to the time the Restricted Stock is fully vested hereunder, (i) the Participant shall have no right to tender shares of Restricted Stock, (ii) dividends or other distributions (collectively, “dividends”) on shares of Restricted Stock shall be withheld, in each case, while the Restricted Stock is subject to restrictions, and (iii) in no event shall dividends or other distributions payable thereunder be paid unless and until the shares of Restricted Stock to which they relate no longer are subject to a risk of forfeiture. Dividends that are not paid currently shall be credited to bookkeeping accounts on the Company’s records for purposes of the Plan and shall not accrue interest. Such dividends shall be paid to the Participant in the same form as paid on the Common Stock upon the lapse of the restrictions.

(b) Vesting. The Restricted Stock shall vest and cease to be Restricted Stock (but will remain subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan) over a four-year period commencing on the Grant Date, with 25% of the Restricted Stock vesting on the one-year anniversary of the Grant Date, and the remainder of the Restricted Stock vesting in 36 equal installments beginning on the date that is the one-month anniversary of such one-year anniversary date, and each one-month anniversary date thereafter; provided, however, that the Participant has not experienced a Termination prior to each applicable vesting date. There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting in the periods prior to the applicable vesting date(s) and all vesting shall occur only on the applicable vesting date(s).

(c) Forfeiture. The Participant shall forfeit to the Company, without compensation, any and all unvested Restricted Stock immediately upon the Participant’s Termination for any reason.

(d) Section 83(b). If the Participant properly elects (as permitted by section 83(b) of the Code) within thirty (30) days after the issuance of the Restricted Stock to include in gross income for federal income tax purposes in the year of issuance the fair market value of such Restricted Stock, the Participant shall deliver to the Company a signed copy of such election promptly after the making of such election, and shall pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay to the Company upon such election, any federal, state, local or other taxes of any kind that the Company is required to withhold with respect to the Restricted Stock. The Participant acknowledges that it is his or her sole responsibility, and not the Company’s, to file timely and properly the election under section 83(b) of the Code and any corresponding provisions of state tax laws if he or she elects to utilize such election.

(e) Certificates. If, after the Grant Date, certificates are issued with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, such issuance and delivery of certificates shall be made in accordance with the applicable terms of the Plan.

23. Certain Legal Restrictions. The Plan, this Agreement, the granting and vesting of the Restricted Stock, and any obligations of the Company under the Plan and this Agreement, shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required, and to any rules or regulations of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.

24. Change in Control. The provisions in the Plan regarding Change in Control shall apply to the Restricted Stock.

25. Withholding of Taxes. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any payment to be made pursuant to this Agreement and the Plan, or to otherwise require, prior to the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common Stock, payment by the Participant of, any federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld.

26. Provisions of Plan Control. This Agreement is subject to all the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan, including, without limitation, the amendment provisions thereof, and to such rules, regulations and interpretations relating to the Plan as may be adopted by the Committee and as may be in effect from time to time. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. If and to the extent that any provision of this Agreement conflicts or is inconsistent with the terms set forth in the Plan, the Plan shall control, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified accordingly.

27. Recoupment Policy. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Restricted Stock shall be subject to the terms and provisions of any “clawback” or recoupment policy that may be adopted by the Company from time to time or as may be required by any applicable law (including, without limitation, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and rules and regulations thereunder).

28. No Right to Employment or Consultancy Service. This Agreement is not an agreement of employment or to provide consultancy services. None of this Agreement, the Plan or the grant of the Restricted Stock hereunder shall (a) guarantee that the Company will employ or retain the Participant as an employee or consultant for any specific time period or (b) modify or limit in any respect the Company’s right to terminate or modify the Participant’s employment, consultancy arrangement or compensation. Moreover, this Agreement is not intended to and does not amend any existing employment or consulting contract between the Participant and the Company or any of its Affiliates; to the extent there is a conflict between this Agreement and such an employment or consulting contract, the employment or consulting contract shall govern and take priority.

30. Mode of Communications. The Participant agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in lieu of receiving documents in paper format, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the Company or any of its Affiliates may deliver in connection with this grant of Restricted Stock and any other grants offered by the Company, including, without limitation, prospectuses, grant notifications, account statements, annual or quarterly reports, and other communications.

deemed to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over this Agreement and the Company and the Participant agree that the provisions of this Agreement, as so amended, shall be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provisions had not been included; provided that if the Company’s call rights and rights of first refusal or rights of first offer set forth in the Stockholder Agreements or any other agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, the Restricted Stock shall be cancelled and terminated.

36. No Waiver.

VIR BIOTECHNOLOGY, INC.

RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

PURSUANT TO THE

VIR BIOTECHNOLOGY, INC.

2016 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

This Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of [●] by and between Vir Biotechnology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [●] (the “Purchaser”).

Terms and Conditions

The Committee hereby sells to the Purchaser as an Eligible Employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company, as of the Closing (as defined in Section 2 below), pursuant to the Vir Biotechnology, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock set forth in Section 1 below. Except as otherwise indicated, any capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Plan. A copy of the Plan has been delivered to the Purchaser. By signing and returning this Agreement, the Purchaser acknowledges having received and read a copy of the Plan and agrees to comply with the Plan, this Agreement and all applicable laws and regulations.

In consideration of the mutual covenants and representations set forth below, the Company and the Purchaser agree as follows:

1. Purchase and Sale of the Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company agrees to sell to the Purchaser and the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company on the Closing (as defined below) [●] shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per Share (the “Shares”), at a price of $0.19 per share (the “Purchase Price”), for an aggregate purchase price of $[●].

2. Closing. The purchase and sale of the Shares shall occur at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held on the date first set forth above, or at any other time mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Purchaser. The Closing will take place at the principal office of the Company or at such other place as shall be designated by the Company. Simultaneous with the Closing, Purchaser and the Company shall enter into that certain Loan and Security Agreement and Promissory Note, dated as of the Closing, pursuant to which the Company will loan to Purchaser the aggregate Purchase Price for the Shares, and the Company will issue, as promptly thereafter as practicable, a stock certificate, registered in the name of the Purchaser, reflecting the Shares.

3. Repurchase Option.

(a) Option. In the event the Purchaser’s Termination for any or no reason, including, without limitation, by reason of the Purchaser’s death or Disability, resignation or involuntary termination, the Company shall, from such time (as determined by the Company in its discretion), have the right, but not the obligation (the “Repurchase Option”), for a period of 90 days from the date of the Purchaser’s Termination, to repurchase any Shares which have not yet been released from the Repurchase Option (the “Unreleased Shares”) at a price per share equal to the lesser of (x) the fair market value of the shares at the time the Repurchase Option is exercised, as determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) in its sole discretion and (y) the Purchase Price (such lesser amount, the “Repurchase Price”). The Repurchase Option shall be exercised by the Company by delivering written notice to the Purchaser or, in the event of the Purchaser’s death, the Purchaser’s executor and, at the Company’s option, (i) by delivering to the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s executor a check in the amount of the aggregate Repurchase Price, or (ii) by canceling an amount of the Purchaser’s indebtedness to the Company equal to the aggregate

Repurchase Price, or (iii) by a combination of (i) and (ii) such that the combined payment and cancellation of indebtedness equals the aggregate Repurchase Price. Upon delivery of such notice and the payment of the aggregate Repurchase Price, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Unreleased Shares being repurchased and all rights and interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Unreleased Shares being repurchased by the Company.

(b) Assignability. The Company in its sole discretion may assign all or part of the Repurchase Option to one or more employees, officers, directors or stockholders of the Company or other persons or organizations.

4. Release of Shares from Repurchase Option; Vesting.

(a) Vesting. Subject to the Purchaser not experiencing a Termination prior to each such date, the Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option over a four-year period commencing on the date hereof, with 25% of the Shares vesting on the one-year anniversary of the date hereof, and the remainder of the Shares vesting in 36 equal installments beginning on the date that is the one-month anniversary of such one-year anniversary date, and each one-month anniversary date thereafter. In the event of the Purchaser’s Termination by the Company without “Cause” or by the Purchaser for “Good Reason” (each as defined in the Offer Letter), a number of Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option equal to the number of Shares, if any, that would have been released from the Repurchase Option within [•] months of such Termination.

(b) Delivery of Released Shares. Subject to the provisions of Section 6, the Shares that have been released from the Company’s Repurchase Option shall be delivered to the Purchaser at the Purchaser’s request.

5. Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) Investment Representations and Legend Requirements. The Purchaser hereby makes the investment representations listed on Exhibit A to the Company as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date of the Closing, and agrees that such representations are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference, such that the Company may rely on them in issuing the Shares and for any other lawful purpose. The Purchaser understands and agrees that the Company shall cause the legends set forth below, or substantially equivalent legends, to be placed upon any certificate(s) evidencing ownership of the Shares, together with any other legends that may be required by the Company or by applicable state or federal securities laws:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “ACT”) AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES, SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE ACT.

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL, A LOCK-UP PERIOD IN THE EVENT OF A PUBLIC OFFERING AND A REPURCHASE OPTION HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN THE RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE

ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS, RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL, LOCK-UP PERIOD AND REPURCHASE OPTION ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.

(b) Stop-Transfer Notices. The Purchaser agrees that to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

(c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

(d) Lock-Up Period. The Purchaser hereby agrees that the Purchaser shall not sell, offer, pledge, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or encumber, directly or indirectly, any Shares or other securities of the Company, nor shall the Purchaser enter into any swap, hedging or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Shares or other securities of the Company, during the period from the filing of the first registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act, that includes securities to be sold on behalf of the Company to the public in an underwritten public offering under the Securities Act through the end of the 180-day period following the effective date of such registration statement (or such other period as may be requested by the Company or the underwriters to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) or NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto). The obligations described in this section shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-l or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Purchaser further agrees, if so requested by the Company or any representative of its underwriters, to enter into such underwriter’s standard form of “lockup” or “market standoff” agreement in a form satisfactory to the Company and such underwriter. In the event that the Purchaser refuses to execute any such agreement, the Purchaser hereby agrees to comply with all of the transfer restrictions set forth above in this section for an additional 30 days beyond each 180-day (or other) period otherwise called for above. The Purchaser agrees that the Company may assign any or all of its rights under this section to the managing underwriter for any registered offering described in this section, and that such managing underwriter shall be able to further assign such rights in its sole discretion, in each case without any notice to or consent from the Purchaser being required. The Purchaser further agrees that any assignee of the Company’s rights under this section shall not be subject to any obligation of the Company set forth in this Agreement. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of any such restriction period.

(e) Unreleased Shares. No Unreleased Shares subject to the Repurchase Option contained in Section 3 of this Agreement, nor any beneficial interest in such Shares, shall be sold, transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) by the Purchaser, other than as expressly permitted or required by Section 3.

(f) Released Shares. No Shares purchased pursuant to this Agreement, nor any beneficial interest in such Shares, shall be sold, transferred, encumbered or otherwise disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) by the Purchaser or any subsequent transferee, other than in compliance with the Company’s right of first refusal provisions contained in the Company’s Bylaws.

(g) No Transfers to Bad Actors. The Purchaser agrees not to sell, assign, transfer, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company, or any beneficial interest therein, to any person (other than the Company) unless and until the proposed transferee confirms to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that neither the proposed transferee nor any of its directors, executive officers, other officers that may serve as a director or officer of any company in which it invests, general partners or managing members nor any person that would be deemed a beneficial owner of those securities (in accordance with Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) through (viii) under the Securities Act (“Bad Actor Disqualifications”), except as set forth in Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) under the Securities Act and disclosed, reasonably in advance of the transfer, in writing in reasonable detail to the Company. The Purchaser will promptly notify the Company in writing if the Purchaser or, to the Purchaser’s knowledge, any person specified in Rule 506(d)(1) under the Securities Act becomes subject to any Bad Actor Disqualification.

(h) Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or any interest therein shall receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

6. Escrow.

(a) Deposit. As security for the faithful performance of this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees, immediately upon receipt of the certificate(s) evidencing the Shares, to deliver such certificate(s), together with a stock power in the form of Exhibit B attached to this Agreement, executed by the Purchaser and by the Purchaser’s spouse, if any (with the date and number of Shares left blank), to the Secretary of the Company or to another designee of the Company (the “Escrow Agent”). These documents shall be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Joint Escrow Instructions of the Company and the Purchaser set forth in Exhibit C attached to this Agreement, which instructions are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference, and which instructions shall also be delivered to the Escrow Agent after the Closing.

(b) Rights in Escrow Shares. Subject to the terms hereof, the Purchaser shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares while they are held in escrow, including without limitation, the right to vote the Shares. If, from time to time during the term of the Company’s Repurchase Option, there is any stock dividend, stock split or other change in the Shares, any and all new, substituted or additional securities to which the Purchaser is entitled by reason of the Purchaser’s ownership of the Shares shall immediately become subject to this escrow, deposited with the Escrow Agent and included thereafter as “Shares” for purposes of this Agreement and the Company’s Repurchase Option.

7. Tax Consequences. The Purchaser has reviewed with the Purchaser’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. The Purchaser understands that the Purchaser (and not the Company) shall be responsible for any tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that Section 83 of the Code, taxes as ordinary income the difference between the purchase price for the Shares and the fair market value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this context, “restriction” includes the right of the Company to buy back the Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Option. The Purchaser understands that the Purchaser may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased rather than when and as the Repurchase Option expires by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the IRS within 30 days from the date of purchase. THE FORM FOR MAKING THIS SECTION 83(B) ELECTION IS ATTACHED TO THIS AGREEMENT AS EXHIBIT D AND THE PURCHASER (AND NOT THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS AGENTS) SHALL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROPRIATELY FILING SUCH FORM, EVEN IF THE PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENTS TO MAKE THIS FILING ON THE PURCHASER’S BEHALF.

8. General Provisions.

(a) Governing Law. All matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including its validity, interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws which would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

(b) Successors. The Company will require any successors or assigns to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession or assignment had taken place.

(f) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT, FOR ITSELF AND ITS AFFILIATES, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE ACTIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(g) Assignment; Transfers. Except as set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement, and any and all rights, duties and obligations hereunder, shall not be assigned, transferred, delegated or sublicensed by the Purchaser without the prior written consent of the Company.

(j) No Right to Employment or Consultancy Service. This Agreement is not an agreement of employment or to provide consultancy services. None of this Agreement, the Plan or the grant of the Shares hereunder shall (a) guarantee that the Company will employ or retain the Purchaser as an employee or consultant for any specific time period or (b) modify or limit in any respect the Company’s right to terminate or modify the Purchaser’s employment, consultancy arrangement or compensation. Moreover, this Agreement is not intended to and does not amend the Offer Letter, and to the extent there is a conflict between this Agreement and the Offer Letter, the Offer Letter shall govern and take priority.

(k) Certain Legal Restrictions. The Plan, this Agreement, the purchase and vesting of the Shares, and any obligations of the Company under the Plan and this Agreement, shall be subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required, and to any rules or regulations of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.

(l) Severability of Provisions. If at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, or are prohibited by the laws of the jurisdiction where they are to be performed or enforced, by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration or geographic scope or scope of the activities restricted, or for any other reason, such provisions shall be considered divisible and shall become and be immediately amended to include only such restrictions and to such extent as shall be deemed to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over this Agreement and the Company and the Purchaser agree that the provisions of this Agreement, as so amended, shall be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provisions had not been included; provided that if the Company’s call rights and rights of first refusal or rights of first offer set forth in the Stockholder Agreements or any other agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, the Restricted Stock shall be cancelled and terminated.

(m) No Waiver.

Upon such transfer, the Purchaser shall have no further rights as a holder of the Shares so purchased except (in the case of a transfer to the Company) the right to receive payment for the Shares so purchased in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and the Purchaser shall forthwith cause the certificate(s) evidencing the Shares so purchased to be surrendered to the Company for transfer or cancellation.

(p) Adjustment for Stock Split. All references to the number of Shares and the purchase price of the Shares in this Agreement shall be adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or other change in the Shares which may be made after the date of this Agreement.

Exhibit A

INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT


PURCHASER	:	[●]

COMPANY	:	Vir Biotechnology, Inc.

SECURITY	:	Common Stock

AMOUNT	:	[●] shares

DATE	:	[●]

In connection with the purchase of the above-listed shares, I, the undersigned purchaser, represent to the Company as follows:

1. The Company may rely on these representations. I understand that the Company’s sale of the shares to me has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), because the Company believes, relying in part on my representations in this document, that an exemption from such registration requirement is available for such sale. I understand that the availability of this exemption depends upon the representations I am making to the Company in this document being true and correct.

2. I am purchasing for investment. I am purchasing the shares solely for investment purposes, and not for further distribution. My entire legal and beneficial ownership interest in the shares is being purchased and shall be held solely for my account, except to the extent I intend to hold the shares jointly with my spouse. I am not a party to, and do not presently intend to enter into, any contract or other arrangement with any other person or entity involving the resale, transfer, grant of participation with respect to or other distribution of any of the shares. My investment intent is not limited to my present intention to hold the shares for the minimum capital gains period specified under any applicable tax law, for a deferred sale, for a specified increase or decrease in the market price of the shares, or for any other fixed period in the future.

3. I can protect my own interests. I can properly evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the shares and can protect my own interests in this regard, whether by reason of my own business and financial expertise, the business and financial expertise of certain professional advisors unaffiliated with the Company with whom I have consulted, or my preexisting business or personal relationship with the Company or any of its officers, directors or controlling persons.

4. I am informed about the Company. I am sufficiently aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the shares. I have had an opportunity to discuss the plans, operations and financial condition of the Company with its officers, directors or controlling persons, and have received all information I deem appropriate for assessing the risk of an investment in the shares.

5. I recognize my economic risk. I realize that the purchase of the shares involves a high degree of risk, and that the Company’s future prospects are uncertain. I am able to hold the shares indefinitely if required, and am able to bear the loss of my entire investment in the shares.

6. I know that the shares are restricted securities. I understand that the shares are “restricted securities” in that the Company’s sale of the shares to me has not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon an exemption for non-public offerings. In this regard, I also understand and agree that:

1. I must hold the shares indefinitely, unless any subsequent proposed resale by me is registered under the Securities Act, or unless an exemption from registration is otherwise available (such as Rule 144);

2. the Company is under no obligation to register any subsequent proposed resale of the shares by me; and

3. the certificate evidencing the shares will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the shares unless such transfer is registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel for the Company.

7. I am familiar with Rule 144. I am familiar with Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act, which in some circumstances permits limited public resales of “restricted securities” like the shares acquired from an issuer in a non-public offering. I understand that my ability to sell the shares under Rule 144 in the future is uncertain, and may depend upon, among other things: (i) the availability of certain current public information about the Company; (ii) the resale occurring more than a specified period after my purchase and full payment (within the meaning of Rule 144) for the shares; and (iii) if I am an affiliate of the Company (A) the sale being made in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction”, transactions directly with a market maker or riskless principal transactions, as those terms are defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (B) the amount of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding the specified limitations stated in Rule 144, and (C) timely filing of a notice of proposed sale on Form 144, if applicable.

8. I know that Rule 144 may never be available. I understand that the requirements of Rule 144 may never be met, and that the shares may never be saleable under the rule. I further understand that at the time I wish to sell the shares, there may be no public market for the Company’s stock upon which to make such a sale, or the current public information requirements of Rule 144 may not be satisfied, either of which may preclude me from selling the shares under Rule 144 even if the relevant holding period had been satisfied.

9. I know that I am subject to further restrictions on resale. I understand that in the event Rule 144 is not available to me, any future proposed sale of any of the shares by me will not be possible without prior registration under the Securities Act, compliance with some other registration exemption (which may or may not be available), or each of the following: (i) my written notice to the Company containing detailed information regarding the proposed sale, (ii) providing an opinion of my counsel to the effect that such sale will not require registration, and (iii) the Company notifying me in writing that its counsel concurs in such opinion. I understand that neither the Company nor its counsel is obligated to provide me with any such opinion. I understand that although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the SEC has stated that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

10. I know that I may have tax liability due to the uncertain value of the shares. I understand that the board of directors believes its valuation of the shares represents a fair appraisal of their worth, but that it remains possible that, with the benefit of hindsight, the Internal Revenue Service may successfully assert that the value of the shares on the date of my purchase is substantially greater than the board of directors’ appraisal. I understand that any additional value ascribed to the shares by such an IRS determination will constitute ordinary income to me as of the purchase date, and that any additional taxes and interest due as a result will be my sole responsibility payable only by me, and that the Company need not and will not reimburse me for that tax liability.

11. Residence. The address of my principal residence is set forth on the signature page below.

12. No “bad actor” disqualification events. Neither I nor any person that would be deemed a beneficial owner of the shares (in accordance with Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act) is subject to any of the “bad actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(l)(i) through (viii) under the Securities Act, except as set forth in Rule 506(d)(2)(h) or (iii) or (d)(3) under the Securities Act and disclosed, reasonably in advance of the purchase or acquisition of the shares, in writing in reasonable detail to the Company.

By signing below, I acknowledge my agreement with each of the statements contained in this Investment Representation Statement as of the date first set forth above, and my intent for the Company to rely on such statements in issuing the shares to me.
