ARTICLE 1

GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK

Section 1.1 Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and pursuant to the provisions of the IMUNON, INC 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Corporation hereby grants to Grantee, as of the Grant Date specified in Attachment A, a Restricted Stock (the “Grant”) of the type stated in Attachment A to require all or any part of the number and class of shares of Common Stock set forth on Attachment A (“Shares”).

ARTICLE 2

VESTING

Section 2.1 Vesting Schedule. Subject to earlier termination or acceleration in accordance with the remaining provisions of this Agreement, the Plan or otherwise, the Grant will vest on the dates (each, a “Vesting Date”), and with respect to the number of Shares, specified in Attachment A, provided that the Shares subject to vesting on a particular Vesting Date shall so vest only if Grantee shall have been in the continuous employ of or affiliation (as a consultant or director) with the Corporation from the Grant Date through such Vesting Date.

Section 2.2 Acceleration Upon Change of Control. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary contained herein, if this Agreement is in effect at the time of the occurrence of a “Change of Control” event, all Xxxxx granted hereunder not then vested shall automatically fully vest and become immediately exercisable simultaneously with the occurrence of such Change of Control event. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” event means: a “Change in Control” shall mean:

(1) The consummation of an amalgamation, merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or any other corporate reorganization of the Company, if more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the continuing or surviving entity’s securities outstanding immediately after such amalgamation, merger, consolidation or other reorganization (or, if applicable, more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the ultimate parent company that directly or indirectly has beneficial ownership of the securities of such continuing or surviving entity) is not owned directly or indirectly by persons who were holders of the Company’s then-outstanding voting securities immediately prior to such amalgamation, merger, consolidation or other reorganization;

	(2)	The sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to an entity that is not a parent, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of the Company;
	(3)	Any transaction as a result of which any person becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then-outstanding voting securities. For purposes of this subsection, the term “person” shall have the same meaning as when used in sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act but shall exclude: (i) any parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company; (ii) any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company, a parent, or any Subsidiary or Affiliate; and (iii) any underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities;
	(4)	A change in the composition of the Board over a period of twenty four (24) consecutive months or less as a result of which individuals who, at the beginning of such period, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual subsequently becoming a director whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Board (either by a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of the Company in which such person is named as a nominee for director, without written objection to such nomination) shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person other than the Board;
	(5)	The stockholders of the Company approve a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company;

provided, that with respect to any nonqualified deferred compensation that becomes payable on account of the Change in Control, the transaction or event described in clause (1), (2), (3) or (4) also constitutes a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(i)(5) if required in order for the payment not to violate Section 409A of the Code.

In lieu of such deduction, the Committee may require Grantee to make a cash payment to the Corporation or an affiliate equal to the amount required to be withheld.
