FORM OF SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

This Subscription Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of February             , 2021 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Immunocore Holdings Limited (registered number 13119746), a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales whose registered office is 92 Park Drive, Milton Park, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom OX14 4RY and which is in the process of being re-registered as a public limited company under the name Immunocore Holdings plc (the “Company”) and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, a Washington charitable trust that is a tax-exempt private foundation organized and existing under the laws of Washington and having its principal place of business at 500 Fifth Avenue North, Seattle, Washington 98109, United States (“Subscriber”).

BACKGROUND

(A)          Whereas, Subscriber, the Company and Immunocore Limited (“Immunocore“) are parties to an Amended and Restated Global Access Commitments Agreement dated 2 March 2020 (as amended, supplemented or restated from time to time) (the “Global Access Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company and Immunocore have agreed to conduct a scope of work relating to Immunocore’s research, development and commercialization of a safe and effective product applicable to the treatment, prevention and/or amelioration of HIV, as set forth in the Global Access Agreement.

(B)          Whereas, in furtherance of its charitable mission, Subscriber desires to provide funding to the Company to be used by the Company and Immunocore solely for the purpose of continuing the scope of work pursuant to the Global Access Agreement.  Accordingly, the Company and Subscriber desire to enter into this Agreement, pursuant to which Subscriber agrees to subscribe for US$15,000,000 of the Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each ADS representing one of the Company’s ordinary shares of £0.002 each in the capital of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) in a private placement that will close concurrently with the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) of ADSs as described herein.

AGREEMENT

Now, Therefore, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises, warranties, and covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.          Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, in the event that the Company consummates an IPO pursuant to an effective registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Subscriber shall, in a concurrent private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subscribe for that number of ADSs, rounded down to avoid fractional ADSs (the “Securities”), determined by dividing USD15,000,000 (fifteen million U.S. dollars) (the “Subscription Amount”) by the price per ADS at which the ADSs are offered for subscription to the public in the IPO, as set forth on the cover page of the final prospectus for the IPO (the “IPO Price”) and such purchase will occur concurrently with, and be conditioned upon, the closing of the IPO.

2.          Agreement To Subscribe.

2.1          Subscription for Securities. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Subscriber hereby applies for and agrees to subscribe for, and the Company accepts such application and will allot and issue to the Subscriber, in a concurrent private placement exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, the Securities at a subscription price per ADS equal to the IPO Price.

2.2          Closing Date. The subscription for the Securities (the “Closing”) shall take place, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Conditions (other than those Conditions that are to be satisfied on the Closing) simultaneously with the closing of the IPO at such place as may be mutually agreed between the Company and the Subscriber (the date of such Closing is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date”).

2.3          Actions by Subscriber and the Company at Closing. At the Closing, the Subscriber shall pay the Subscription Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified in writing by the Company and provided to the Subscriber no later than two business days prior to the Closing Date and, subject to receipt thereof, the Company will issue the Securities by (a) causing the CREST account of the nominee of Citibank, N.A., the Company’s depositary for its ADS program (the “Depositary”) to be credited with the Securities issued and sold hereunder, and (b) instructing the Depositary to issue restricted, uncertificated ADSs evidencing the Securities in the name of the Subscriber, in an account of the Company’s restricted ADS facility, and provide evidence of the same to the Subscriber, no later than five business days after the Closing Date.

3.          Warranties of the Company.

Except as may be disclosed in the Registration Statement or separately provided by the Company to the Subscriber prior to the date hereof, the Company hereby warrants to Subscriber as follows as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (except for the warranties that speak as of a specific date, which shall be made as of such date):

3.1          Organization; Qualification. The Company is a company duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of England and Wales and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. The Company has at all times complied with all provisions of its articles of association (the “Articles”) and is not in default under, or in violation of, any such provision of the Articles.  The Company is not, and has never been, a “shell company,” as described in paragraphs (i)(1)(i) and (ii) of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.

3.2          Capitalization. The issued share capital of the Company and details of the securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable therefor as of immediately prior to the Closing, including the holders thereof, are disclosed in the Registration Statement.

3.3          Authorization; Binding Obligations. The Company has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and any and all instruments necessary or appropriate in order to effectuate fully the terms and conditions contained herein and all related transactions and to perform its obligations hereunder. This Agreement and the allotment, issuance, and delivery of the Securities have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company, and the Agreement has been duly executed by the Company and constitutes the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms and conditions. The authorization, allotment, issuance, and delivery of the Securities have been duly authorized by all requisite action of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) and shareholders.

3.4          Valid Issuance of the Securities; Exemption from Registration. When issued in accordance with this Agreement, the ADSs and underlying Ordinary Shares will be (i) duly and validly issued, fully paid, free of any liens, options, encumbrances, proxies, adverse claims or restrictions imposed by the Company except as set forth in the Companies Act 2006 or the Articles and (ii) assuming the accuracy of the Subscriber’s warranties in this Agreement at the time of such issuance, exempt from registration and/or qualification under the Securities Act and all applicable U.S. state securities laws, and issued in compliance with all applicable securities laws.

The Company is not in violation or default of any instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or of any provision of any statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, which violation or default would materially and adversely affect the business of the Company.

3.6          Compliance with Securities Laws; No Integration.

Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries or any affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any ADSs or Ordinary Shares under circumstances that would adversely affect reliance by the Company on Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation D of the Securities Act for the exemption from registration of Securities issued pursuant to a private placement, as contemplated by this Agreement, or would otherwise require registration of the Securities under the Securities Act as an integrated offering.

3.7          Investment Company. The Company is not and, immediately after giving effect to the offering, allotment and issue of the Securities, will not be an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

3.10          “Bad Actor” Status. Neither the Company nor any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties (as defined below) is a “bad actor” within the meaning of Rule 506(d) promulgated under the Securities Act. For purposes of this Agreement, “Rule 506(d) Related Party” shall mean a person or entity covered by the “Bad Actor disqualification” provision of Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act.

(a)          make, effect, initiate or participate in (i) any acquisition of beneficial ownership of any voting securities of the Company (“Voting Securities”) (including derivatives thereof) or debt securities, except as a result of a stock split, stock dividend or other pro rata distribution made by the Company to its shareholders and in which Subscriber participates solely in its capacity as a shareholder of the Company or (ii) any acquisition of all or a material portion of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis or (iii) any tender offer, takeover offer, exchange offer, merger, business combination, scheme of arrangement, recapitalization, restructuring, liquidation, dissolution or extraordinary transaction involving the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or involving any securities or assets of the Company or any securities or assets of any subsidiary of the Company (provided that Subscriber may tender its securities in any tender or exchange offer made by any third party provided that Subscriber is not in breach of Section 6.1 of this Agreement), or (iv) any “solicitation” of “proxies” (as those terms are used in the proxy rules of the Commission) or consents with respect to the Voting Securities;

(g)          enter into any discussions, negotiations, arrangement or agreement with any other Person with the intent to effect any of the foregoing (provided that Subscriber shall not be deemed to be in violation of this clause (g) with respect to discussions or negotiations unless the person entering into such discussions or negotiations knew or reasonably should have known at the time he or she did so that doing so violated this Section 6.1 or knew or reasonably should have known after such time and did not attempt to halt such actions); or

(h)          request or propose (either directly or indirectly) that the Company or any of the Company’s representatives amend, waive or consider the amendment or waiver of any provision set forth in this Section 6 (including this sub-paragraph).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) nothing in this Section 6.1 will be deemed to prohibit Subscriber from confidentially communicating to the Board or the Company’s senior management or external financial advisors any non-public proposals regarding a possible transaction of any kind in such a manner as would not reasonably be expected to (x) require public disclosure thereof under applicable law or listing standards of any securities exchange or (y) require either the Company or the Subscriber to take any public action under applicable law or listing standards of any securities exchange and (ii) this Section 6.1 shall terminate upon a Fundamental Change Event.  “Fundamental Change Event” means:

(a) the Company enters into, or publicly announces the intention to enter into, a definitive written agreement with any Person other than the Subscriber (or any of its Affiliates) to consummate a merger, consolidation or similar transaction pursuant to which (1) any Person other than the Subscriber (or any of its Affiliates) will acquire 50% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Company or (2) the Company and its subsidiaries will sell to any Person other than the Subscriber (or any of its Affiliates) all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries;

(b) the Board of Directors of the Company recommends to the shareholders of the Company any acquisition by any Person of all or more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company or all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries;

(c) any Person or “group” (as defined in the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) that is or includes a company (other than Subscriber, any of Subscriber’s controlled Affiliates) that is in the business of developing, marketing, selling or manufacturing human therapeutics (such company, a “Pharmaceutical Company”) acquires, or publicly announces a proposal or intention to acquire, Voting Securities representing 25% or more of the then outstanding Voting Securities; or

(d) any Person or “group” that is or includes a Pharmaceutical Company commences a tender or exchange offer to acquire 50% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Fundamental Change Event shall not include any internal reorganization transactions involving only the Company, one or more of its subsidiaries and/or any holding company formed for the purpose of such transactions. In addition, nothing contained herein shall limit the ability of the Company to make any disclosures required by applicable law.  The expiration of the Standstill Period will not terminate or otherwise affect any other of the provisions of this Agreement.  For purposes of Section 6.1, (y) “Affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 12b-2 of the regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act and (z) “Voting Securities” shall mean at any time securities of any class of the share capital of the Company which are entitled to vote generally in the election of directors including but not limited to ADSs and Ordinary Shares.

6.2          Restrictions on Transfer.

(a)          Until the expiration or earlier termination of the Standstill Period, the Subscriber will not Transfer any Securities; provided, however, that the Subscriber shall be permitted to Transfer any portion or all of its Securities, at any time under the following circumstances:

(i)          Transfers to any of its Affiliates, but only upon notice in writing to the Company and provided the transferee agrees in writing for the benefit of the Company (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and if the transferee and the transferor agree for the express benefit of the Company that the transferee shall Transfer Securities so Transferred back to the transferor at or before such time the transferee ceases to be an Affiliate of the transferor.

(ii)          Transfers that have been approved in writing by the Board.

(iii)          Transfers made pursuant to the Withdrawal Right (such term as is defined in the Global Access Agreement) in accordance with the Global Access Agreement.

(c)          In the event of any Transfer by the Subscriber of its Securities, the Subscriber shall notify the Company in writing of such Transfer. Additionally, in the event of any Transfer by the Subscriber to an Affiliate of Subscriber, the pledgee, transferee or donee shall furnish the Company with a written agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to the provisions applicable to the Subscriber pursuant to this Section 6 (the “Transferee Agreement”).  In addition to any other conditions set forth in this Agreement or as otherwise required by the Company, such Transfer to an Affiliate of Subscriber shall not be valid unless and until the Company receives the Transferee Agreement. After the effectiveness of the Transfer, such pledgee, transferee or donee shall be treated as the “Subscriber” for purposes of this Agreement.

(d)          For purposes of this Section 6.2, “Transfer” by any Person means directly or indirectly, to sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, hypothecate or similarly dispose of, either voluntarily or involuntarily, or to enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation or similar disposition of, any securities beneficially owned by such Person or of any interest (including any voting interest) in any securities beneficially owned by such Person.

The Company agrees that at such time as the restrictive legend set forth in Section 4.6 is no longer required under this section, then no later than five (5) business days following the later of (i) delivery by the Subscriber to the Company of customary representations regarding the facts to support the removal of the restrictive legends; and (ii) delivery to the Depositary, as the case may be, the information reasonably required by the Depositary in connection with such request, the Company shall (x) in the event that such Securities are certificated, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Subscriber a certificate representing such Securities that is free from such restrictive legend, or (y) cause its Depositary, as the case may be, to remove any such restrictive legend in the Company’s records of its share capital.
