    As described in Item 5.03 below, Leap Therapeutics, Inc. has changed its name to Cypherpunk Technologies Inc., effective as of November 12, 2025.

     

    Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     

    Consulting Agreement

     

    On November 11, 2025, Cypherpunk Technologies Inc. (f./k/a Leap Therapeutics, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Consulting Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with CoinXit Ltd. (“CoinXit”), effective as of November 11, 2025. Under the Consulting Agreement, CoinXit will provide consulting services to the Company as set forth in project assignments to be mutually agreed from time to time. Mr. Khing Oei is the sole director and employee of CoinXit.

     

    Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, CoinXit will receive the fees specified in each project assignment and is also entitled to receive equity compensation in the form of restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards under the Company’s equity incentive plans, subject to Board or compensation committee approval.

     

    Effective November 11, 2025, the compensation committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved an award under the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2022 Plan”), of 2,411,700 RSUs to CoinXit (each representing the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share) (the “First RSUs”). The First RSUs will vest as to 12/36ths on October 8, 2026 and as to 1/36th each month thereafter on the 8th day of the applicable month, subject to CoinXit Ltd.’s continuous service through each vesting date. Vested RSUs will be settled in accordance with the terms of the related RSU agreement (the “CoinXit RSU Agreement”), generally on the earliest to occur of the Company’s first payroll date on or after (i) CoinXit’s cessation of service, (ii) June 8 of the applicable year, or (iii) December 8 of the applicable year, subject to any further deferral as provided in the CoinXit RSU Agreement.

     

    The Consulting Agreement provides for an additional award under an equity incentive plan of the Company of 3,036,457 RSUs to CoinXit, subject to equitable adjustment in certain circumstances (the “Second RSUs”), following (i) stockholder approval of an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split and/or to increase authorized common shares to at least 490,000,000 shares, (ii) stockholder approval of a new equity plan with a sufficient share reserve, (iii) SEC effectiveness of a Form S-8 for such plan, and (iv) Board or Compensation Committee approval. The Second RSUs will vest on the same schedule and settle on the same terms as the First RSUs.

     

    CoinXit will serve as an independent contractor and not as an employee of the Company. The Consulting Agreement has a three-year initial term, subject to earlier termination by the Company on five days’ notice or by CoinXit on 15 days’ notice when no project assignment is in effect. The Consulting Agreement contains customary terms regarding ownership of work product, confidentiality, non-solicitation, and indemnification.

     

    The foregoing summary of the Consulting Agreement and the CoinXit RSU Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of each such agreement, copies of which are filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

     

     

     

     

    Employment Agreement

     

    On November 11, 2025, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with Mr. William McEvoy, effective as of November 11, 2025 (the “Effective Date”). Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. McEvoy will serve as the Company’s Chief Investment Officer.

     

    The Employment Agreement provides for an initial annual base salary of $250,000, payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices and subject to applicable withholding, which will be reviewed at least annually and may be increased, but not decreased, in the discretion of the Board. Pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. McEvoy is eligible to participate in the Company’s annual incentive compensation program for senior executives and has a target annual bonus opportunity equal to 40% of base salary, based on performance criteria established by the Board (or its Compensation Committee), generally payable at the same time as bonuses to other senior executives, subject to continued employment through the payment date.

     

    Subject to stockholder approvals and other conditions described in the Employment Agreement (including stockholder approval of certain amendments to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, adoption of a new equity plan, registration of the related shares on a Form S-8, and Board or Compensation Committee approval), Mr. McEvoy will receive an award under an equity incentive plan of the Company of 5,616,906 RSUs, each representing the right to receive one share of the Company’s Common Stock, subject to equitable adjustment in certain circumstances. The RSUs will vest as to 12/36ths on October 8, 2026, and as to 1/36th on the 8th day of each month thereafter, in each case subject to Mr. McEvoy’s continued employment or other qualifying service relationship through the applicable vesting date. Vested RSUs will be settled in shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of a restricted stock unit agreement to be entered into by the Company and Mr. McEvoy in connection with the grant to Mr. McEvoy of such 5,616,906 RSUs, which agreement is expected to provide for settlement on the earliest to occur of (i) the Company’s first payroll date on or after the date Mr. McEvoy ceases to be a service provider, (ii) the Company’s first payroll date on or after June 8 of the applicable year, or (iii) the Company’s first payroll date on or after December 8 of the applicable year, subject to any further deferral as provided therein. The RSUs will be governed by the applicable equity plan and award agreement under which the RSUs are granted. The Employment Agreement also provides that any outstanding unvested equity awards held by Mr. McEvoy will become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to a qualifying Change in Control (as defined therein) that occurs after the Effective Date.

     

    The Employment Agreement includes customary termination and severance provisions. If Mr. McEvoy’s employment is terminated by the Company without “Cause” or by Mr. McEvoy for “Good Reason” (each as defined in the Employment Agreement), and subject to his timely execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims, Mr. McEvoy will be entitled to: (i) accrued but unpaid compensation and benefits and other accrued obligations; (ii) a severance payment equal to his annual base salary, payable in substantially equal installments over 12 months; and (iii) reimbursement of a portion of COBRA premiums for continued health and dental coverage for up to 12 months, in each case subject to the conditions set forth in the Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement also contains customary provisions addressing potential excise taxes under Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, and is intended to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

     

    The Employment Agreement further incorporates an Employee Proprietary Information, Invention, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement between the Company and Mr. McEvoy and includes customary representations, covenants and other employment terms.

     

    The foregoing description of the Employment Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Employment Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Nothing in this Section 2.4 shall be deemed to affect the rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

     

    (i)            For purposes of these bylaws, “public disclosure” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

For purposes of this Section 2.4, to be considered a qualified representative of the stockholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such stockholder or must be authorized by a writing executed by such stockholder or an electronic transmission delivered by such stockholder to act for such stockholder as proxy at the annual meeting and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the annual meeting.

    (i)            Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.5, unless otherwise required by law, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) does not appear at the meeting to present the proposed nomination, such proposed nomination shall not be considered, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation.

A quorum, once established at a meeting, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum. If, however, a quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (a) the chairperson of the meeting or (b) a majority in voting power of the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, present in person, or by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner provided in Section 2.9 of these bylaws until a quorum is present or represented.

    2.10CONDUCT OF BUSINESS.

     

    The date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be announced at the meeting by the person presiding over the meeting. The Board may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board, the person presiding over any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to convene and (for any or no reason) to recess and/or adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures (which need not be in writing) and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such presiding person, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the presiding person of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (a) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (b) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present (including, without limitation, rules and procedures for removal of disruptive persons from the meeting); (c) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the presiding person of the meeting shall determine; (d) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (e) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. The presiding person at any meeting of stockholders, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting (including, without limitation, determinations with respect to the administration and/or interpretation of any of the rules, regulations or procedures of the meeting, whether adopted by the Board or prescribed by the person presiding over the meeting), shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and if such presiding person should so determine, such presiding person shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the person presiding over the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

     

    2.11VOTING.

     

    The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13 of these bylaws, subject to Section 217 (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and joint owners of stock) and Section 218 (relating to voting trusts and other voting agreements) of the DGCL.

     

    Except as may be otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, each stockholder shall be entitled to one (1) vote for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder.

     

    At all duly called or convened meetings of stockholders, at which a quorum is present, for the election of directors, a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect a director. Except as otherwise provided by the certificate of incorporation, these bylaws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, or applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, all other elections and questions presented to the stockholders at a duly called or convened meeting, at which a quorum is present, shall be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions) at the meeting by the holders entitled to vote thereon.

    2.12STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING.

     

    Any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders.

     

    2.13RECORD DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING.

     

    In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall, unless otherwise required by law, not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance herewith at the adjourned meeting.

     

    In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which shall not be more than sixty (60) days prior to such other action. If no such record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

     

    2.14PROXIES.

     

    Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy authorized by an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of Section 212 of the DGCL. A proxy may be in the form of a telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission which sets forth or is submitted with information from which it can be determined that the telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder.

    2.15LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE.

     

    The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the date of the meeting), arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. The Corporation shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting: (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the Corporation’s principal executive office. In the event that the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Except as otherwise provided by law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote in person or by proxy and the number of shares held by each of them, and as to the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders.

     

    2.16POSTPONEMENT AND CANCELLATION OF MEETING.

     

    Any previously scheduled annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be postponed, and any previously scheduled annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be canceled, by resolution of the Board upon public notice given prior to the time previously scheduled for such meeting.

     

    2.17INSPECTORS OF ELECTION.

     

    Before any meeting of stockholders, the Board shall appoint an inspector or inspectors of election to act at the meeting or its adjournment or postponement and make a written report thereof. The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or three (3). If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, then the chairperson of the meeting may, and upon the request of any stockholder or a stockholder’s proxy shall, appoint a person to fill that vacancy. Unless otherwise required by law, inspectors may be officers, employees or agents of the Corporation. Such inspectors shall have the duties prescribed by law and shall take charge of the polls and, when the vote is completed, shall make a certificate of the result of the vote taken and of such other facts as may be required by law. The inspectors of election shall perform their duties impartially, in good faith, to the best of their ability and as expeditiously as is practical. If there are three (3) inspectors of election, the decision, act or certificate of a majority is effective in all respects as the decision, act or certificate of all. Any report or certificate made by the inspectors of election is prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred and until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified. A vacancy in the Board shall be deemed to exist under these bylaws in the case of the death, removal or resignation of any director.

Every holder of stock represented by a certificate shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by, or in the name of the Corporation by the chairperson or vice-chairperson of the Board, or the president or vice-president, and by the treasurer or an assistant treasurer, or the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation representing the number of shares registered in certificate form.

    The Corporation may issue the whole or any part of its shares as partly paid and subject to call for the remainder of the consideration to be paid therefor. Upon the face or back of each stock certificate issued to represent any such partly paid shares, or upon the books and records of the Corporation in the case of uncertificated partly paid shares, the total amount of the consideration to be paid therefor and the amount paid thereon shall be stated. Upon the declaration of any dividend on fully paid shares, the Corporation shall declare a dividend upon partly paid shares of the same class, but only upon the basis of the percentage of the consideration actually paid thereon.

    7.3SPECIAL DESIGNATION ON CERTIFICATES.

     

    If the Corporation is authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than one series of any class, then the powers, the designations, the preferences and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate that the Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock; provided, however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 202 of the DGCL, in lieu of the foregoing requirements, there may be set forth on the face or back of the certificate that the Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock a statement that the Corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, the designations, the preferences and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights.

The Corporation may issue a new certificate of stock or uncertificated shares in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and the Corporation may require the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or such owner’s legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares.

    7.6DIVIDENDS.

     

    The Board, subject to any restrictions contained in either (a) the DGCL or (b) the certificate of incorporation, may declare and pay dividends upon the shares of its capital stock. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property or in shares of the Corporation’s capital stock.

     

    The Board may set apart out of any of the funds of the Corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and may abolish any such reserve. Such purposes shall include but not be limited to equalizing dividends, repairing or maintaining any property of the Corporation, and meeting contingencies.

     

    21

    7.9TRANSFER OF STOCK.

     

    Shares of the Corporation shall be transferable in the manner prescribed by law and in these bylaws. Shares of stock of the Corporation shall be transferred on the books of the Corporation only by the holder of record thereof or by such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, upon surrender to the Corporation of the certificate or certificates representing such shares endorsed by the appropriate person or persons (or by delivery of duly executed instructions with respect to uncertificated shares), with such evidence of the authenticity of such endorsement or execution, transfer, authorization and other matters as the Corporation may reasonably require, and accompanied by all necessary stock transfer stamps. No transfer of stock shall be valid as against the Corporation for any purpose until it shall have been entered in the stock records of the Corporation by an entry showing the names of the persons from and to whom it was transferred.

     

    7.10STOCK TRANSFER AGREEMENTS.

     

    The Corporation shall have power to enter into and perform any agreement with any number of stockholders of any one or more classes of stock of the Corporation to restrict the transfer of shares of stock of the Corporation of any one or more classes owned by such stockholders in any manner not prohibited by the DGCL.

     

    7.11REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS.

     

    The Corporation:

     

    (a)            shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to vote as such owner;

     

    (b)            shall be entitled to hold liable for calls and assessments the person registered on its books as the owner of shares; and

     

    (c)            shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of another person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Delaware.

     

    22

     

     

    7.12WAIVER OF NOTICE.

     

    Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, a written waiver, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws.

     

    Article VIII —NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION

     

    8.1NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

     

    Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders pursuant to the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:

     

    (a)            the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two (2) consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent; and

     

    (b)            such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.

     

    However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

     

    Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:

     

    (a)            if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

     

    (b)            if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

     

    (c)            if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (i) such posting and (ii) the giving of such separate notice; and

     

    (d)            if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.

     

    23

     

     

    An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation or of the transfer agent or other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

     

    8.2DEFINITION OF ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

     

    For the purposes of these bylaws, an “electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

     

    Article IX —INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT

     

    9.1ACTIONS, SUITS AND PROCEEDINGS OTHER THAN BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION.

     

    The Corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan) (all such persons being referred to hereafter as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974), and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

     

    For purposes of any determination under Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of this Article IX, a person shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful, if such person’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or on information supplied to such person by the officers of the Corporation or another enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Corporation or another enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Corporation or another enterprise. The provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 of this Article IX, as the case may be.

     

    24

     

     

    9.2ACTIONS OR SUITS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION.

     

    The Corporation shall indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made under this Section 9.2 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless, and only to the extent, that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) which the Court of Chancery of Delaware or such other court shall deem proper.

     

    9.3INDEMNIFICATION FOR EXPENSES OF SUCCESSFUL PARTY.

     

    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article IX, to the extent that an Indemnitee has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 9.1 and 9.2 of these bylaws, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, or on appeal from any such action, suit or proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, if any action, suit or proceeding is disposed of, on the merits or otherwise (including, without limitation, a disposition without prejudice), without (a) the disposition being adverse to Indemnitee, (b) an adjudication that Indemnitee was liable to the Corporation, (c) a plea of guilty or nolo contendere by Indemnitee, (d) an adjudication that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and (e) with respect to any criminal proceeding, an adjudication that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, Indemnitee shall be considered for the purposes hereof to have been wholly successful with respect thereto.

     

    25

     

     

    9.4NOTIFICATION AND DEFENSE OF CLAIM.

     

    As a condition precedent to an Indemnitee’s right to be indemnified, such Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnitee for which indemnity will or could be sought. With respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation is so notified, the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee. After notice from the Corporation to Indemnitee of its election so to assume such defense, the Corporation shall not be liable to Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, other than as provided below in this Section 9.4. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his or her own counsel in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (a) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Corporation, (b) counsel to Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest or position on any significant issue between the Corporation and Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation or (c) the Corporation shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel for Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Corporation, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Article IX. The Corporation shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Corporation or as to which counsel for Indemnitee shall have reasonably made the conclusion provided for in clause (b) above. The Corporation shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee under this Article IX for any amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation effected without its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any action, suit, proceeding or investigation in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Corporation nor Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed settlement.

     

    9.5ADVANCE OF EXPENSES.

     

    Subject to the provisions of Sections 9.4 and 9.6 of these bylaws, in the event of any threatened or pending action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation receives notice under this Article IX, any expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in defending an action, suit, proceeding or investigation or any appeal therefrom shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such matter; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of such matter shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article IX; and provided further that no such advancement of expenses shall be made under this Article IX if it is determined (in the manner described in Section 9.6 of these bylaws) that (a) Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, or (b) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of Indemnitee to make such repayment.

     

    26

     

     

    9.6PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES.

     

    In order to obtain indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to Section 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 or 9.5 of these bylaws, an Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request. Any such advancement of expenses shall be made promptly, and in any event within 60 days after receipt by the Corporation of the written request of Indemnitee, unless (a) the Corporation has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 9.4 of these bylaws (and none of the circumstances described in Section 9.4 of these bylaws that would nonetheless entitle the Indemnitee to indemnification for the fees and expenses of separate counsel have occurred) or (b) the Corporation determines within such 60-day period that Indemnitee did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1, 9.2 or 9.5 of these bylaws, as the case may be. Any such indemnification, unless ordered by a court, shall be made with respect to requests under Section 9.1 or 9.2 of these bylaws only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination by the Corporation that the indemnification of Indemnitee is proper because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.1 or 9.2 of these bylaws, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made in each instance (a) by a majority vote of the directors of the Corporation consisting of persons who are not at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question (“disinterested directors”), whether or not a quorum, (b) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c) if there are no disinterested directors, or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by law, be regular legal counsel to the Corporation) in a written opinion or (d) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

     

    9.7REMEDIES.

     

    The right to indemnification or advancement of expenses as granted by this Article IX shall be enforceable by Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the failure of the Corporation to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation pursuant to Section 9.6 of these bylaws that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or advancement, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article IX. Indemnitee’s expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing Indemnitee’s right to indemnification or advancement, in whole or in part, in any such proceeding shall also be indemnified by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any suit brought by Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder it shall be a defense that the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL.

    9.8LIMITATIONS.

     

    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IX, except as set forth in Section 9.7 of these bylaws, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee pursuant to this Article IX in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article IX, the Corporation shall not indemnify (or advance expenses to) an Indemnitee to the extent such Indemnitee is reimbursed (or advanced expenses) from the proceeds of insurance, and in the event the Corporation makes any indemnification (or advancement) payments to an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, such Indemnitee shall promptly refund indemnification (or advancement) payments to the Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.

     

    9.9SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENT.

     

    No amendment, termination or repeal of this Article IX or of the relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws shall adversely affect or diminish in any way the rights of any Indemnitee to indemnification or advancement of expenses under the provisions hereof with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such amendment, termination or repeal.

     

    9.10OTHER RIGHTS.

     

    The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article IX shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee’s official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office for the Corporation, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of Indemnitee. Nothing contained in this Article IX shall be deemed to prohibit, and the Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into, agreements with officers and directors providing indemnification and advancement rights and procedures different from those set forth in this Article IX. In addition, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, grant indemnification and advancement rights to other employees or agents of the Corporation or other persons serving the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than, those set forth in this Article IX.

     

    9.11PARTIAL INDEMNIFICATION.

     

    If an Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Article IX to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a portion of the expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) or amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation and any appeal therefrom but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) or amounts paid in settlement to which Indemnitee is entitled.

     

    28

     

     

    9.12INSURANCE.

     

    The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including, without limitation, any employee benefit plan) against any expense, liability or loss incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

     

    9.13SAVINGS CLAUSE.

     

    If this Article IX or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnitee as to any expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including, without limitation, excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including, without limitation, an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article IX that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

     

    9.14DEFINITIONS.

     

    Terms used in this Article IX and defined in Section 145(h) and Section 145(i) of the DGCL shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in such Section 145(h) and Section 145(i).

The stockholders also shall have power to adopt, amend or repeal the bylaws of the Corporation; provided, however, that, (i) in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by law or by the certificate of incorporation, such action by stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds in voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon; and (ii) during the Special Governance Term, the stockholders of the Corporation shall not have the right, or power, to amend or repeal all or any portion of Section 3.12 of these bylaws other than by an affirmative vote of holders of 75% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (it being understood and agreed that any amendment or repeal of all or any portion of Section 3.12 of these bylaws during the Special Governance Term without such a vote shall be permitted only with the approval of the Board (including the affirmative vote of at least one Macrocure Designated Director, provided that there is at least one Macrocure Designated Director serving as a member of the Board at the time of such approval..

    LEAP THERAPEUTICS, INC.

     

    CONSULTING AGREEMENT

     

    Effective Date: November 11, 2025

     

    This Consulting Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of the Effective Date set forth above by and between Leap Therapeutics, Inc. (“Client”) and the consultant named on the signature page hereto (“Consultant”).

     

    1.              Engagement of Services. Client may issue Project Assignments to Consultant in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A (each, a “Project Assignment”). Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Consultant will render the services set forth in Project Assignment(s) accepted by Consultant (the “Services”) by the completion dates set forth therein. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Project Assignment, Consultant will be free of control and direction from the Client (other than general oversight and control over the results of the Services), and will have exclusive control over the manner and means of performing the Services, including the choice of place and time. Consultant will provide, at Consultant’s own expense, a place of work and all equipment, tools and other materials necessary to complete the Services; however, to the extent necessary to facilitate performance of the Services, Client may, in its discretion, make certain of its equipment or facilities available to Consultant at Consultant’s request. While on the Client’s premises, Consultant agrees to comply with Client’s then-current access rules and procedures, including those related to safety, security and confidentiality. Consultant agrees and acknowledges that Consultant has no expectation of privacy with respect to Client’s telecommunications, networking or information processing systems (including stored computer files, email messages and voice messages) and that Consultant’s activities, including the sending or receiving of any files or messages, on or using those systems may be monitored, and the contents of such files and messages may be reviewed and disclosed, at any time, without notice.

     

    2.              Compensation.

     

    2.1              Consulting Fees. Client will pay Consultant the fee set forth in each Project Assignment for Services rendered pursuant to this Agreement as Consultant’s sole compensation for such Services (in addition to the equity compensation provided by Client to Consultant pursuant to Section 2.2 and Section 2.3 below). If a Project Assignment for Services does not provide for the payment by Client to Consultant of any fee for the Services to be rendered by Consultant to Client pursuant to such Project Assignment for Services, then Consultant’s sole compensation for rendering such Services shall be the equity compensation provided by Client to Consultant pursuant to Section 2.2 and Section 2.3 below. Consultant will be reimbursed only for expenses that are expressly provided for in a Project Assignment or that have been approved in advance in writing by Client, provided Consultant has furnished such documentation for authorized expenses as Client may reasonably request. Payment of Consultant’s fees and expenses will be in accordance with the applicable Project Assignment. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Consultant will be paid fees on the basis stated in the Project Assignment(s) for work that has been completed. Unless otherwise provided in a Project Assignment, payment to Consultant of undisputed fees will be due 30 days following Client’s receipt of an invoice that contains accurate records of the work performed that are sufficient to substantiate the invoiced fees.

    3.              Ownership of Work Product. Consultant hereby irrevocably assigns to Client all right, title and interest worldwide in and to any deliverables specified in a Project Assignment and to any ideas, concepts, processes, discoveries, inventions, developments, formulae, information, materials, improvements, designs, artwork, content, software programs, other works of authorship, and any other work product created, conceived or developed by Consultant (whether alone or jointly with others) for Client during or before the term of this Agreement, including all copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade secrets, and other intellectual property rights therein (including all rights to priority and rights to file patent applications and/or registered designs) (collectively, the “Work Product”). Consultant retains no rights to use the Work Product and agrees not to challenge the validity of Client’s ownership of, or intellectual property rights in, the Work Product. Consultant agrees to execute, at Client’s request and expense, all documents and other instruments necessary or desirable to confirm such assignment, including without limitation, any copyright assignment or patent assignment provided by the Client. Consultant hereby irrevocably appoints Client as Consultant’s attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing such documents on Consultant’s behalf, which appointment is coupled with an interest. At Client’s request, Consultant will promptly record any such patent assignment with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Client will reimburse Consultant for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by Consultant in fulfilling its obligations under this section. Consultant will deliver each item of Work Product specified in each Project Assignment and disclose promptly in writing to Client all other Work Product.

     

    4.              Other Rights. If Consultant has any rights, including without limitation “artist’s rights” or “moral rights,” in the Work Product that cannot be assigned, Consultant hereby unconditionally and irrevocably grants to Client an exclusive (even as to Consultant), worldwide, fully paid and royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual license, with rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sublicensees, to use, reproduce, distribute, create derivative works of, publicly perform and publicly display the Work Product in any medium or format, whether now known or later developed. In the event that Consultant has any rights in the Work Product that cannot be assigned or licensed, Consultant unconditionally and irrevocably waives the enforcement of such rights, and all claims and causes of action of any kind against Client or Client’s customers and channel partners.

     

    5.              License to Preexisting IP. Consultant agrees not to use or incorporate into Work Product any intellectual property developed by any third party or by Consultant other than in the course of performing services for Client (“Preexisting IP”) unless the Preexisting IP has been specifically identified and described in the applicable Project Assignment. In the event Consultant uses or incorporates Preexisting IP into Work Product, Consultant hereby grants to Client a non-exclusive, worldwide, fully-paid and royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual license, with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers of sublicensees, to use, reproduce, distribute, digitally transmit, create derivative works of, publicly perform and publicly display in any medium or format, whether now known or later developed, such Preexisting IP incorporated or used in Work Product.

     

    3.

     

     

    6.              Representations and Warranties. Consultant represents and warrants that: (a) the Services will be performed in a professional manner and in accordance with the industry standards and the Work Product will comply with the requirements and specifications set forth in the applicable Project Assignment, (b) the Work Product will be an original work of Consultant, (c) Consultant has the right and unrestricted ability to assign the ownership of Work Product to Client as set forth in Section 3 (including without limitation the right to assign the ownership of any Work Product created by Consultant’s employees or contractors), (d) neither the Work Product nor any element thereof will infringe upon or misappropriate any copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, right of publicity or privacy, or any other proprietary right of any person, whether contractual, statutory or common law, (e) Consultant has an unqualified right to grant to Client the license to Preexisting IP set forth in Section 5, (f) none of the Work Product incorporates any software code licensed under the GNU General Public License, Lesser General Public License, Affero General Public License, “copyleft” license or any other license that, by its terms, requires or conditions the use or distribution of such code on the disclosure, licensing, or distribution of any source code owned or licensed by Client, except as expressly agreed by the Client in writing, and (g) Consultant will comply with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws governing self-employed individuals, including laws requiring the payment of taxes, such as income and employment taxes, and social security, disability, and other contributions. Consultant further represents and warrants that Consultant is self-employed in an independently established trade, occupation, or business; maintains and operates a business that is separate and independent from Client’s business; holds themself out to the public as independently competent and available to provide applicable services similar to the Services; has obtained and/or expects to obtain clients or customers other than Client for whom Consultant performs services; and will perform work for Client that Consultant understands is outside the usual course of Client’s business. Consultant agrees to indemnify and hold Client harmless from any and all damages, costs, claims, expenses or other liability (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from or relating to the breach or alleged breach by Consultant of this Agreement, including any of the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 6.

     

    7.              Independent Contractor Relationship. Consultant’s relationship with Client is that of an independent contractor, and nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or should be construed to, create a partnership, agency, joint venture or employment relationship between Client and any of Consultant’s employees or agents. Consultant is not authorized to make any representation, contract or commitment on behalf of Client. Consultant (if Consultant is an individual) and Consultant’s employees will not be entitled to any of the benefits that Client may make available to its employees, including, but not limited to, group health or life insurance, profit-sharing or retirement benefits. Because Consultant is an independent contractor, Client will not withhold or make payments for social security, make unemployment insurance or disability insurance contributions, or obtain workers’ compensation insurance on behalf of Consultant. Consultant is solely responsible for, and will file, on a timely basis, all tax returns and payments required to be filed with, or made to, any federal, state or local tax authority with respect to the performance of Services and receipt of fees under this Agreement. Consultant is solely responsible for, and must maintain adequate records of, expenses incurred in the course of performing Services under this Agreement. No part of Consultant’s compensation will be subject to withholding by Client for the payment of any social security, federal, state or any other employee payroll taxes. Client will regularly report amounts paid to Consultant by filing Form 1099-NEC with the Internal Revenue Service as required by law. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, Consultant is reclassified as an employee of Client, or any affiliate of Client, by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Department of Labor, or any other federal or state or foreign agency as the result of any administrative or judicial proceeding, Consultant agrees that Consultant will not, as the result of such reclassification, be entitled to or eligible for, on either a prospective or retrospective basis, any employee benefits under any plans or programs established or maintained by Client.

     

    4.

     

     

    8.              Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement and thereafter Consultant (i) will not use or permit the use of Client’s Confidential Information in any manner or for any purpose not expressly set forth in this Agreement, (ii) will hold such Confidential Information in confidence and protect it from unauthorized use and disclosure, and (iii) will not disclose such Confidential Information to any third parties except as set forth in this section and in Section 9 below. Consultant will protect Client’s Confidential Information from accidental loss and unauthorized use, access or disclosure in the same manner as Consultant protects its own confidential information of a similar nature, but in no event will it exercise less than reasonable care. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other agreement between Client and Consultant, nothing in this Agreement shall limit Consultant’s right to report possible violations of law or regulation with any federal, state, or local government agency. “Confidential Information” as used in this Agreement means all information disclosed by Client to Consultant, whether during or before the term of this Agreement, that is not generally known in the Client’s trade or industry and will include, without limitation: (a) concepts and ideas relating to the development and distribution of content in any medium or to the current, future and proposed products or services of Client or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (b) trade secrets, drawings, inventions, know-how, software programs, and software source documents; (c) information regarding plans for research, development, new service offerings or products, marketing and selling, business plans, business forecasts, budgets and unpublished financial statements, licenses and distribution arrangements, prices and costs, suppliers and customers; (d) existence of any business discussions, negotiations or agreements between the parties; and (e) any information regarding the skills and compensation of employees, contractors or other agents of Client or its subsidiaries or affiliates. Confidential Information also includes proprietary or confidential information of any third party who may disclose such information to Client or Consultant in the course of Client’s business. Confidential Information does not include information that (x) is or becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omission of Consultant, (y) is disclosed to Consultant by a third party without restrictions on disclosure, or (z) was in Consultant’s lawful possession without obligation of confidentiality prior to the disclosure and was not obtained by Consultant either directly or indirectly from Client. In addition, this section will not be construed to prohibit disclosure of Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is required by law or valid order of a court or other governmental authority; provided, however, that Consultant will first have given notice to Client and will have made a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order requiring that the Confidential Information so disclosed be used only for the purposes for which the order was issued. All Confidential Information furnished to Consultant by Client is the sole and exclusive property of Client or its suppliers or customers. Upon request by Client, Consultant agrees to promptly deliver to Client the original and any copies of the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing nondisclosure obligations, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 1833(b), Consultant will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made: (1) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (2) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

     

    8.1              Personal Information. With respect to any information that Consultant collects, receives, stores, processes, generates, uses, transfers, discloses, makes accessible, protects, secures, disposes of, and transmits (collectively, processes) in connection with the Services that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person or which otherwise constitutes personal data, personal information, personally identifiable information or similar information under applicable privacy or data security laws (collectively, “Personal Information”), Consultant shall not (i) sell or share Personal Information, (ii) retain, use or disclose Personal Information for any purpose other than the business purpose specified in this Agreement, (iii) retain, use, or disclose the Personal Information outside of the direct business relationship between Consultant and Client, or (iv) combine the Personal Information Consultant receives from, or on behalf of, Client with Personal Information that it receives from, or on behalf of, another person or persons, or collects from its own interaction with consumers. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing prohibits Consultant from “selling” Personal Information, as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (as amended, the “CCPA”), and from retaining, using, or disclosing Personal Information outside of the direct business relationship between Consultant and Client or for a “commercial purpose” (as defined in the CCPA). Client retains the right to take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that Consultant uses the Personal Information transferred in a manner consistent with Client’s obligations under the CCPA. Client retains the right to, upon notice, take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate unauthorized use of Personal Information. Consultant hereby certifies that it understands the obligations under this Section 8.1 and will comply with them, and agrees to notify Client if Consultant is no longer able to meet the obligations under this Section 8.1.

     

    5.

     

     

    (a)            Consultant shall comply with applicable obligations under the CCPA, as amended, and provide the same level of privacy protection as required for Client.

     

    (b)            Consultant shall use reasonable security measures appropriate to the nature of any Personal Information in its possession or control to protect the Personal Information from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure.

     

    (c)            The parties acknowledge and agree that Consultant’s access to Personal Information is not part of the consideration exchanged by the parties in respect of the Agreement.

     

    (d)            If any individual contacts Consultant to make a request pertaining to their Personal Information, Consultant shall promptly forward the request to Client and shall not respond to the individual except as instructed by Client. Consultant shall promptly take such actions and provide such information as Client may request to help Client fulfill requests of individuals to exercise their rights under the applicable privacy or data security laws, including, without limitation, requests to access, delete, opt-out of the sale of, or receive information about the processing of, Personal Information pertaining to them. Consultant agrees to cooperate with Client to further amend the Agreement as may be necessary to address compliance with applicable privacy or data security laws.

     

    9.              Consultant’s Employees, Consultants and Agents. Consultant shall have the right to disclose Confidential Information only to those of its employees, consultants, and agents who have a need to know such information for the purpose of performing Services and who have entered into a binding written agreement that is expressly for the benefit of Client and protects Client’s rights and interests in and to the Confidential Information to at least the same degree as this Agreement. Client reserves the right to refuse or limit Consultant’s use of any employee, consultant or agent or to require Consultant to remove any employee, consultant or agent already engaged in the performance of the Services. Client’s exercise of such right will in no way limit Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement.

     

    10.            Term and Termination.

     

    10.1            Term. The initial term of this Agreement is for three (3) years from the Effective Date set forth above, unless earlier terminated as provided in this Agreement. Thereafter, this Agreement will automatically renew on its anniversary date, for one (1) year terms, unless Client provides 15 days’ written notice prior to any such anniversary date that the Agreement will not renew.

     

    10.2            Termination Without Cause. Client may terminate this Agreement with or without cause, at any time upon 5 days’ prior written notice to Consultant. Consultant may terminate this Agreement without cause, at any time when no Project Assignment is in effect upon 15 days’ prior written notice to Client.

     

    10.3            Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately in the event the other party has materially breached the Agreement and failed to cure such breach within 3 days after notice by the non-breaching party is given.

     

    10.4            Survival. The rights and obligations contained in Sections 3 (“Ownership of Work Product”), 4 (“Other Rights”), 5 (“License to Preexisting IP”), 6 (“Representations and Warranties”), 8 (“Confidential Information”) and 12 (“Non-solicitation”) will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

     

    6.

     

     

    11.            No Conflicts.  Consultant will refrain from any activity, and will not enter into any agreement or make any commitment, that is inconsistent or incompatible with Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement, including Consultant’s ability to perform the Services.  Consultant represents and warrants that Consultant is not subject to any contract or duty that would be breached by Consultant’s entering into or performing Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement or that is otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement.

     

    12.            Non-solicitation. Consultant agrees that during the Term of this Agreement, and for one year thereafter, Consultant will not either directly or indirectly, solicit or attempt to solicit any employee, independent contractor, or consultant of Client to terminate their relationship with Client in order to become an employee, consultant, or independent contractor to or for any other person or entity.

     

    13.            Successors and Assigns. Consultant may not subcontract or otherwise delegate or assign this Agreement or any of its obligations under this Agreement without Client’s prior written consent.

Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement will be in writing and will be delivered as follows with notice deemed given as indicated: (i) by personal delivery when delivered personally; (ii) by overnight courier upon written verification of receipt; (iii) by email (provided, however, if the sender receives an automatically generated notification that such email was not delivered, such attempted email notice shall be ineffective and deemed to not have been given); or (iv) by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, upon verification of receipt. Notice will be sent to the addresses set forth below or such other address as either party may specify in writing.

     

    15.            Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed in all respects by the laws of the United States of America and by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles that require the application of the law of a different jurisdiction.

     

    16.            Severability. Should any provisions of this Agreement be held by a court of law to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected or impaired thereby.

     

    17.            Waiver. The waiver by Client of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by Consultant will not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach by Consultant.

     

    18.            Injunctive Relief for Breach. Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement are of a unique character that gives them particular value; breach of any of such obligations will result in irreparable and continuing damage to Client for which there will be no adequate remedy at law; and, in the event of such breach, Client will be entitled to injunctive relief and/or a decree for specific performance, and such other and further relief as may be proper (including monetary damages if appropriate).

     

    19.            Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties relating to this subject matter and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral or written agreements concerning such subject matter. The terms of this Agreement will govern all services undertaken by Consultant for Client; provided, however, that in the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any Project Assignment, the terms of the applicable Project Assignment will control, provided that the Project Assignment specifically calls out the applicable Section number of this Agreement to be superseded and has been signed by an authorized officer of Client. This Agreement may only be changed or amended by mutual agreement of authorized representatives of the parties in writing. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

    Exhibit 10.2

     

    LEAP THERAPEUTICS, INC.

    RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT

     

    This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated as of November 11, 2025 (the “Date of Grant”), is delivered by Leap Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) to CoinXit Ltd (the “Participant”).

     

    RECITALS

     

    Pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement, dated November 11, 2025, between the Company and the Participant (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Consulting Agreement”), the Participant is to be granted a restricted stock unit award on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. The Leap Therapeutics, Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and in effect on the date hereof (the “Plan”), provides for the grant of Restricted Stock Units (as defined in the Plan) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Committee (as defined in the Plan) has decided to make this grant of Restricted Stock Units to comply with the Company’s agreements and obligations under the Consulting Agreement and as an inducement for the Participant to promote the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. This Agreement is made pursuant to the Plan and is subject in its entirety to all applicable provisions of the Plan. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined will have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

     

    1.             Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Participant 2,411,700 Restricted Stock Units (the “Stock Units”). Each Stock Unit represents the right of the Participant to receive a share of common stock of the Company (“Stock”), if and when the specified conditions are met in Section 3 below, and on the applicable settlement date set forth in Section 5 below.

     

    2.             No Rights Prior to Settlement. Stock Units represent hypothetical shares of Stock, and not actual shares of Stock. No shares of Stock shall be issued to the Participant at the time the grant of the Stock Units is made, and the Participant shall not be, and shall not have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Stock Units. The Participant shall not have any interest in any fund or specific assets of the Company by reason of this award.

     

    3.             Vesting.

     

    (a)             As of the date of this Agreement, all of the Stock Units shall be unvested and subject to a Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below.

     

    (b)             Subject to the terms of this Section 3, the Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the following vesting schedule: (i) 12/36ths of the Stock Units will vest on October 8, 2026 and (ii) 1/36ths of the Stock Units will vest on the eighth (8th) day of each month thereafter, provided that the Participant continues to be employed by, or provide service as a consultant, director or advisor of or to, the Company or one of its Affiliates from the Date of Grant until the Stock Units vest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Vesting Date” shall mean a date on which any or all of the Stock Units vest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.

     

     

     

     

    (c)             The vesting of the Stock Units shall be cumulative, but shall not exceed 100% of the Stock Units. If the foregoing schedule would produce fractional Stock Units, the number of Stock Units that vest shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Stock Unit and the fractional Stock Units will be accumulated so that the resulting whole Stock Units will be included in the number of Stock Units that become vested on the last Vesting Date.

     

    (d)             In the event of a Change of Control or a Transaction before all of the Stock Units vest in accordance with Section 3(a) above, the applicable provisions of the Plan shall apply to the Stock Units, and the Committee may take such actions as it deems appropriate pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.

     

    (e)             In the event that (i) Participant’s consulting or advisory relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates is terminated at any time by the Company or any of its Affiliates for any reason other than Cause (as defined in Section 3(g) below) or is terminated at any time by Participant for Good Reason (as defined in Section 3(h) below) and (ii) immediately after any such termination of such consulting or advisory relationship, Participant does not have a service provider relationship of any kind (including, without limitation, as an officer, director, employee, consultant or advisor) with any of the Company and its Affiliates, then, effective immediately prior to any such termination of such consulting or advisory relationship, any and all Stock Units that are then unvested and subject to Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below shall automatically become fully vested and free from Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below.

     

    (f)              Those Stock Units that vest pursuant to this Section 3 or pursuant to any action taken by the Committee pursuant to the Plan shall become free from the Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below.

     

    (g)             For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following: (i) a conviction of Participant, or a plea of nolo contendere, to a felony (other than a felony related to the operation of a motor vehicle); or (ii) willful misconduct or gross negligence by Participant resulting, in either case, in material harm to the Company or any of its Affiliates; or (iii) a willful failure by Participant to carry out the reasonable and lawful directions of the Board and failure by Participant to remedy such willful failure within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of same from the Board; or (iv) fraud, embezzlement, theft or dishonesty of a material nature by Participant, or a willful material violation by Participant of a written policy or procedure of the Company or any of its Affiliates, resulting, in any case, in material harm to the Company or any of its Affiliates; or (v) a material breach by Participant of any agreement between Participant and the Company or any of its Affiliates, and failure by Participant to remedy the material breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such material breach.

     

    (h)             For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Good Reason” shall mean a material breach by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company of any agreement between Participant and the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, and failure by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company to remedy such material breach within thirty (30) days after receipt from Participant of written notice of such material breach. For purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason shall not be deemed to exist unless Participant provides the Company with written notice of the material breach within ninety (90) days after the initial existence of such material breach and Participant’s termination of the Consulting Agreement for Good Reason occurs within one hundred eighty days after Participant provides such written notice to the Company on a timely basis regarding the existence of such material breach.

     

     

     

     

    4.             Termination of Stock Units. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(e) above, if the Participant ceases to be a service provider to the Company and its Affiliates in all capacities as an employee, consultant, director and/or advisor of the Company and its Affiliates for any reason before all of the Stock Units vest, any unvested Stock Units shall automatically terminate and shall be forfeited as of the date of the Participant’s termination of such employment or service. No settlement or payment shall be made with respect to any unvested Stock Units that terminate as described in this Section 4.

     

    5.             Settlement of Stock Units and Tax Withholding.

     

    (a)             If a Stock Unit vests in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 above, then, subject to the provisions of this Section 5(a) and Sections 5(b), 5(c) and 12 below, the Company shall issue to the Participant one share of Stock for such vested Stock Unit, subject to applicable tax withholding obligations, on the earliest to occur of (1) the first payroll period on or after the date the Participant’s employment with or service to the Company ceases, (2) the first payroll period on or after the eighth (8th) day of the calendar month of June following any such Vesting Date applicable to such vested Stock Unit or (3) the first payroll period on or after the eighth (8th) day of the month of December following any such Vesting Date applicable to such vested Stock Unit; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to issue to the Participant any share of Stock pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(a) with respect to any vested Stock Unit (or otherwise settle any such vested Stock Unit in shares of Stock) on any date that the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines the Participant is subject to any limitation or restriction (including, without limitation, (1) any limitation or restriction under the Company’s insider trading policy as then in effect and (2) any limitation or restriction imposed by securities laws or other laws such as Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that does not permit the Participant to offer to sell or sell on the public market on such date all of the shares of Stock that otherwise would be issued to Participant on such date pursuant to this Section 5(a) in settlement of such vested Stock Unit. Notwithstanding anything express or implied in the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(a) to the contrary, in no event shall settlement of a vested Stock Unit occur later than the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following the calendar year in which the Vesting Date applicable to such vested Stock Unit occurs, and in no event shall the Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the calendar year of payment.

     

    (b)             All obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to the right of the Company as set forth in the Plan to require the Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy statutory minimum federal, state, local, foreign or other withholding tax requirements if, when, and to the extent required by law prior to the issuance of shares of Stock. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be conditional on satisfaction of all such statutory minimum withholding obligations and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant or to utilize any other withholding method prescribed by the Committee from time to time. However, the Participant may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, acting in its sole discretion, to satisfy an applicable statutory minimum withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold shares of Stock to satisfy the Participant’s tax obligations. Any such election shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee deems appropriate. If shares of Stock are withheld to satisfy an applicable withholding requirement, the shares of Stock withheld shall have a Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that could be imposed on the transaction unless the Committee determines otherwise.

     

     

     

     

    (c)             The obligation of the Company to deliver Stock shall also be subject to the condition that if at any time the Board shall determine in its discretion that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares of Stock on any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance of such shares, such shares may not be issued in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board. The issuance of shares of Stock, if any, to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement is subject to any applicable taxes and other laws or regulations of the United States or of any state, municipality or other country having jurisdiction thereof.

     

    6.             No Stockholder Rights. Neither the Participant, nor any permitted transferee of the Stock Units, shall have any of the rights and privileges of a stockholder with respect to shares of Stock, including voting or dividend rights, until such shares of Stock have been issued upon settlement of Stock Units. The Participant acknowledges that no election under Section 83(b) of the Code is available with respect to Stock Units.

     

    7.             Grant Subject to Plan Provisions. This grant is made pursuant to the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, and in all respects shall be interpreted in accordance with the Plan. The grant and settlement of the Stock Units are subject to the provisions of the Plan and to interpretations, regulations and determinations concerning the Plan established from time to time by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, including, but not limited to, provisions pertaining to (a) rights and obligations with respect to withholding taxes, (b) the registration, qualification or listing of the shares of Stock, (c) changes in capitalization of the Company and (d) other requirements of applicable law. The Committee shall have the authority to interpret and construe the Stock Units pursuant to the terms of the Plan, and its decisions shall be conclusive as to any questions arising hereunder.

     

    8.             No Service or Other Rights. The grant of the Stock Units shall not confer upon the Participant any right to be retained by or in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate and shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time. The right of the Company and any Affiliate to terminate at will the Participant’s employment or service at any time for any reason is specifically reserved.

     

    9.             Assignment and Transfers. Under the Plan, the Stock Units are generally not transferable, and shall not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all of the Participant's rights in the Stock Units may be exercised only by the Participant. The rights and protections of the Company hereunder shall extend to any successors or assigns of the Company and to its Affiliates. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company without the Participant’s consent.

     

     

     

     

    10.             Governing Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

     

    11.             Notice. Any notice to the Company provided for in this instrument shall be addressed to the Company in care of its Chief Financial Officer at the Company's principal place of business, and any notice to the Participant shall be addressed to the Participant at Participant’s business address last filed with the Company. Any notice shall be delivered in accordance with Section 17 of the Plan.

     

    12.             Application of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement is intended to be exempt from or otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Stock Units constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code and such Stock Units become vested upon the Participant’s termination of service, settlement of such vested Stock Units shall be delayed for a period of six months after the Participant’s termination of service if the Participant is a “specified employee” as defined under Section 409A of the Code and if required pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. If settlement of any Stock Units is delayed in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 12, such Stock Units shall be settled within thirty (30) days after the date that is six (6) months following the Participant’s termination of service. To the extent subject to Section 409A of the Code, settlement of the Stock Units may only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted by Section 409A of the Code, and each settlement of the Stock Units shall be treated as a separate payment, and the right to a series of installment payments under the Stock Units shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event shall the Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. The Company may change or modify the terms of this Agreement without the Participant’s consent or signature if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that such change or modification is necessary for purposes of compliance with or exemption from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or any regulations or other guidance issued thereunder. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Company may also amend the Plan or this Agreement or revoke the Stock Units to the extent permitted by the Plan.

    (1)             delivered in full, or

     

    (2)             delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such severance and other benefits being subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code,

     

    whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of severance and other benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such severance and other benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code.  If a reduction in the severance and other benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that no portion of such severance and other benefits is subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, the reduction shall occur in the following order:  (a) reduction of the cash severance payments; (b) cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards; and (c) reduction of continued employee benefits.  In the event that acceleration of vesting of equity award compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant of Executive’s equity awards.

    (i)             Cooperation. Following the Term of Employment, the Executive shall give his assistance and cooperation willingly, upon reasonable advance notice with due consideration for his other business or personal commitments, in any matter relating to his position with the Company, or his expertise or experience as the Company may reasonably request, including his attendance and truthful testimony where deemed appropriate by the Company, with respect to any investigation or the Company’s defense or prosecution of any existing or future claims or litigations or other proceedings relating to matters in which he was involved or potentially had knowledge by virtue of his employment with the Company.

    (B)             The amount of any Taxable Reimbursements, and the value of any in-kind benefits to be provided to the Executive, during any taxable year of the Executive shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year of the Executive.

     

    (C)             The right to Taxable Reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

     

    (vi)             Company Discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the payment of the COBRA premiums under Section 6(e)(iv) above would result in a violation of the nondiscrimination rules of Section 105(h)(2) of the Code or any statute or regulation of similar effect (including but not limited to the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the 2010 Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act), then in lieu of providing the COBRA premiums, the Company may instead pay Executive, fully taxable cash payments equal to and paid at the same time as the COBRA premiums that otherwise would have been paid, subject to applicable tax withholdings. In the event the COBRA premium reimbursement is made on an after-tax basis, the Company will provide a tax gross-up to the Executive equal to the amount of taxes withheld on the COBRA premium reimbursement with such amount to be paid at the same time of the COBRA premium reimbursement. To receive the payments under Section 6(e)(ii) above, Executive’s termination or resignation must constitute a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and Executive must execute and allow the Release to become effective within sixty (60) days of Executive’s termination or resignation. Such payments shall not be paid prior to the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination or resignation, rather, subject to the aforementioned conditions, on the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination or resignation, the Company will pay Executive such payments in a lump sum that Executive would have received on or prior to such date under the original schedule, with the balance of such payments being paid as originally scheduled.

     

    (vii)             Timing of Payment and Execution of Release. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the timing of the execution of the Release, directly or indirectly, result in the Executive designating the calendar year of a payment, and if a payment that is subject to execution of the Release could be made in more than one taxable year, payment shall be made in the later taxable year to the extent required under Section 409A. In no event may the Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of a payment.

     

    (viii)             No Guaranty of 409A Compliance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to the Executive that the payments or benefits provided under this Agreement are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Executive or any beneficiary of the Executive for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Executive or any beneficiary of the Executive may incur in the event that any provision of this Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof, or any other action taken with respect thereto, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.

    (c)             In connection with Executive’s employment with the Company, he has not used, and will not use, any confidential or proprietary information that he may have obtained in connection with employment with any prior employer.

    17.             Severability. The invalidity of any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses, provisions, sections or articles contained in this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining portions of this Agreement or any part thereof, all of which are inserted conditionally on their being valid in law, and, in the event that any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses, provisions, sections or articles contained in this Agreement shall be declared invalid, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid word or words, phrase or phrases, sentence or sentences, clause or clauses, provisions or provisions, section or sections or article or articles had not been inserted.

    21.             No Set-off or Mitigation. The Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company may have against the Executive or others.

(the “Company”), its subsidiaries, affiliated companies, successors and assigns, and its current or former directors, officers, employees, stockholders or agents in such capacities (collectively with the Company, the “Released Parties”) from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, controversies, claims and demands whatsoever, whether known or unknown, from the beginning of time through the date upon which Executive signs this General Release of Claims, including, without limitation, claims under any applicable laws, in each case in connection with Executive's employment or termination thereof, whether for tort, breach of express or implied employment contract, wrongful discharge, intentional infliction of emotional distress, or defamation or injuries incurred on the job or incurred as a result of loss of employment.

Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph 1 to the contrary, this General Release of Claims shall not apply to (i) any rights to receive any payments or benefits to which the Executive is entitled under the Employment Agreement or COBRA, (ii) any rights or claims that may arise as a result of events occurring after the date this General Release of Claims is executed, (iii) any indemnification and advancement rights Executive may have as a former employee, officer or director of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliated companies (including any rights under any directors' and officers' indemnification agreement or under the Company’s charter or bylaws), (iv) any claims for benefits under any directors' and officers' liability policy maintained by the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliated companies in accordance with the terms of such policy, (v) rights to vested benefits under the Company’s 401(k) plan or other employee benefits plans, (vi) any rights as a holder of equity securities or debt securities/notes of the Company and (vii) any rights that Executive may have under any contracts or agreements with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies (other than the Employment Agreement) to the extent that such rights do not pertain to compensation or remuneration in connection with Executive’s employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliated companies or the termination of such employment.

     

    2.             Executive represents that he has not filed against the Released Parties any complaints, charges, or lawsuits arising out of his employment, or any other matter arising on or prior to the date of this General Release of Claims, and covenants and agrees that he will never individually or with any person file, or commence the filing of any lawsuits, complaints or proceedings with any governmental agency, or against the Released Parties with respect to any of the matters released by Executive pursuant to paragraph 1 hereof; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent Executive from filing a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) or similar federal or state agency or Executive’s ability to participate in any investigation or proceeding conducted by such agency. Executive does agree, however, that he is waiving his right to recover any money in connection with such an investigation or charge filed by him or by any other individual, or a charge filed by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any other federal, state or local agency.

    LEAP THERAPEUTICS, INC.

    2016 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

     

    RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT

     

    This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated as of November 11, 2025 (the “Date of Grant”), is delivered by Leap Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) to __________ (the “Participant”).

     

    RECITALS

     

    The Leap Therapeutics, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and in effect on the date hereof (the “Plan”), provides for the grant of Restricted Stock Units (as defined in the Plan) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Committee (as defined in the Plan) has decided to make this grant of Restricted Stock Units as an inducement for the Participant to promote the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. This Agreement is made pursuant to the Plan and is subject in its entirety to all applicable provisions of the Plan. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined will have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

     

    1.             Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants the Participant ________ Restricted Stock Units (the “Stock Units”). Each Stock Unit represents the right of the Participant to receive a share of common stock of the Company (“Stock”) on the applicable settlement date set forth in Section 5 below.

     

    2.             No Rights Prior to Settlement. Stock Units represent hypothetical shares of Stock, and not actual shares of Stock. No shares of Stock shall be issued to the Participant at the time the grant of the Stock Units is made, and the Participant shall not be, and shall not have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Stock Units. The Participant shall not have any interest in any fund or specific assets of the Company by reason of this award.

     

    3.             Vesting. As of the date of this Agreement, all of the Stock Units shall be fully vested and shall not be subject to any Risk of Forfeiture.

     

    4.             Settlement of Stock Units and Tax Withholding.

     

    (a)             Subject to the provisions of this Section 4(a) and Sections 4(b), 4(c) and 11 below, the Company shall issue to the Participant one share of Stock for each Stock Unit, subject to applicable tax withholding obligations, on [alt 1: the fifth (5th) business day after the Date of Grant] [alt 2: as soon as practicable following the earlier to occur of (1) the date the Participant ceases for any reason to be a member of the Company’s Board of Directors or (2) the date of the first annual meeting of stockholders of the Company that occurs following the Date of Grant]1; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to issue to Participant any share of Stock pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(a) with respect to any Stock Unit (or otherwise settle any such Stock Unit in shares of Stock) on any date that the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines Participant is subject to any limitation or restriction (including, without limitation, (1) any limitation or restriction under the Company’s insider trading policy as then in effect and (2) any limitation or restriction imposed by securities laws or other laws such as Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that does not permit Participant to offer to sell or sell on the public market on such date all of the shares of Stock that otherwise would be issued to Participant on such date pursuant to this Section 4(a) in settlement of such Stock Unit. Notwithstanding anything express or implied in the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(a) to the contrary, in no event shall settlement of a Stock Unit occur later than the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following the calendar year in which the Date of Grant occurs, and in no event shall Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the calendar year of payment.

     

     

    1 Chose the applicable settlement date alternative.

     

     

     

     

    (b)             All obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to the right of the Company as set forth in the Plan to require the Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy statutory minimum federal, state, local, foreign or other withholding tax requirements if, when, and to the extent required by law prior to the issuance of shares of Stock. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be conditional on satisfaction of all such statutory minimum withholding obligations and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant or to utilize any other withholding method prescribed by the Committee from time to time. However, the Participant may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, acting in its sole discretion, to satisfy an applicable statutory minimum withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold shares of Stock to satisfy the Participant's tax obligations. Any such election shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee deems appropriate. If shares of Stock are withheld to satisfy an applicable withholding requirement, the shares of Stock withheld shall have a Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that could be imposed on the transaction unless the Committee determines otherwise.

     

    (c)             The obligation of the Company to deliver Stock shall also be subject to the condition that if at any time the Board shall determine in its discretion that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares of Stock on any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance of such shares, such shares may not be issued in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board. The issuance of shares of Stock, if any, to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement is subject to any applicable taxes and other laws or regulations of the United States or of any state, municipality or other country having jurisdiction thereof.

     

    5.             No Stockholder Rights. Neither the Participant, nor any person entitled to receive Stock Units in the event of the Participant’s death, shall have any of the rights and privileges of a stockholder with respect to shares of Stock, including voting or dividend rights, until such shares of Stock have been issued upon settlement of Stock Units. The Participant acknowledges that no election under Section 83(b) of the Code is available with respect to Stock Units.

     

    6.             Grant Subject to Plan Provisions. This grant is made pursuant to the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, and in all respects shall be interpreted in accordance with the Plan. The grant and settlement of the Stock Units are subject to the provisions of the Plan and to interpretations, regulations and determinations concerning the Plan established from time to time by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, including, but not limited to, provisions pertaining to (a) rights and obligations with respect to withholding taxes, (b) the registration, qualification or listing of the shares of Stock, (c) changes in capitalization of the Company and (d) other requirements of applicable law. The Committee shall have the authority to interpret and construe the Stock Units pursuant to the terms of the Plan, and its decisions shall be conclusive as to any questions arising hereunder.

     

     

     

     

    7.             No Service or Other Rights. The grant of the Stock Units shall not confer upon the Participant any right to be retained by or in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate and shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time. The right of the Company and any Affiliate to terminate at will the Participant’s employment or service at any time for any reason is specifically reserved.

     

    8.             Assignment and Transfers. The Stock Units are not transferable, and shall not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All of the Participant's rights in the Stock Units may be exercised during the life of the Participant only by the Participant or the Participant's legal representative. The rights and protections of the Company hereunder shall extend to any successors or assigns of the Company and to its Affiliates. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company without the Participant’s consent.

     

    9.             Governing Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

     

    10.             Notice. Any notice to the Company provided for in this instrument shall be addressed to the Company in care of its Chief Financial Officer at the Company's principal place of business, and any notice to the Participant shall be addressed to such Participant at his or her residence address last filed with the Company. Any notice shall be delivered in accordance with Section 17 of the Plan.

     

    11.             Application of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement is intended to be exempt from or otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code.

    2.            No Rights Prior to Settlement. Stock Units represent hypothetical shares of Stock, and not actual shares of Stock. No shares of Stock shall be issued to the Participant at the time the grant of the Stock Units is made, and the Participant shall not be, and shall not have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Stock Units. The Participant shall not have any interest in any fund or specific assets of the Company by reason of this award.

     

    3.            Vesting. As of the date of this Agreement, all of the Stock Units shall be fully vested and shall not be subject to any Risk of Forfeiture.

Any such election shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee deems appropriate. If shares of Stock are withheld to satisfy an applicable withholding requirement, the shares of Stock withheld shall have a Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that could be imposed on the transaction unless the Committee determines otherwise.

     

    (c)            The obligation of the Company to deliver Stock shall also be subject to the condition that if at any time the Board shall determine in its discretion that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares of Stock on any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance of such shares, such shares may not be issued in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board. The issuance of shares of Stock, if any, to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement is subject to any applicable taxes and other laws or regulations of the United States or of any state, municipality or other country having jurisdiction thereof.

The Committee (as defined in the Plan) has decided to make this grant of Restricted Stock Units as an inducement for the Participant to promote the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. This Agreement is made pursuant to the Plan and is subject in its entirety to all applicable provisions of the Plan. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined will have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

     

    1.             Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants the Participant ________ Restricted Stock Units (the “Stock Units”). Each Stock Unit represents the right of the Participant to receive a share of common stock of the Company (“Stock”), if and when the specified conditions are met in Section 3 below, and on the applicable settlement date set forth in Section 5 below.

     

    2.             No Rights Prior to Settlement. Stock Units represent hypothetical shares of Stock, and not actual shares of Stock. No shares of Stock shall be issued to the Participant at the time the grant of the Stock Units is made, and the Participant shall not be, and shall not have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Stock Units. The Participant shall not have any interest in any fund or specific assets of the Company by reason of this award.

     

    3.             Vesting.

     

    (a)             As of the date of this Agreement, all of the Stock Units shall be unvested and subject to a Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below.

     

    (b)             Subject to the terms of this Section 3, the Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the following vesting schedule: (i) 12/36ths of the Stock Units will vest on October 8, 2026 and (ii) 1/36ths of the Stock Units will vest on the eighth (8th) day of each month thereafter, provided that the Participant continues to be employed by, or provide service as a consultant, director or advisor of or to, the Company or one of its Affiliates from the Date of Grant until the Stock Units vest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Vesting Date” shall mean a date on which any or all of the Stock Units vest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.

     

    (c)             The vesting of the Stock Units shall be cumulative, but shall not exceed 100% of the Stock Units. If the foregoing schedule would produce fractional Stock Units, the number of Stock Units that vest shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Stock Unit and the fractional Stock Units will be accumulated so that the resulting whole Stock Units will be included in the number of Stock Units that become vested on the last Vesting Date.

     

     

     

     

    (d)             In the event of a Change of Control or a Transaction before all of the Stock Units vest in accordance with Section 3(a) above, the applicable provisions of the Plan shall apply to the Stock Units, and the Committee may take such actions as it deems appropriate pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.

     

    (e)             In the event that (i) Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates is terminated at any time by the Company or any of its Affiliates for any reason other than Cause (as defined in Section 3(g) below) or is terminated at any time by Participant for Good Reason (as defined in Section 3(h) below) and (ii) immediately after any such termination of employment, Participant does not have a service provider relationship of any kind (including, without limitation, as an officer, director, employee, consultant or advisor) with any of the Company and its Affiliates, then, effective immediately prior to any such termination of employment, any and all Stock Units that are then unvested and subject to Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below shall automatically become fully vested and free from Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below. For clarity, and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(e), this Section 3(e) shall not be applicable to any termination of Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates as a result of Participant’s death or disability.

For purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason shall not be deemed to exist unless Participant’s termination of employment for Good Reason occurs within one hundred eighty days following the initial existence of one of the conditions specified in clauses (i) through (iii) above, Participant provides the Company with written notice of the existence of such condition within ninety (90) days after the initial existence of the condition, and the Company or any Affiliate of the Company fails to remedy the condition within thirty (30) days after the Company’s receipt of such notice from Participant.

The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be conditional on satisfaction of all such statutory minimum withholding obligations and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant or to utilize any other withholding method prescribed by the Committee from time to time. However, the Participant may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, acting in its sole discretion, to satisfy an applicable statutory minimum withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold shares of Stock to satisfy the Participant's tax obligations. Any such election shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee deems appropriate. If shares of Stock are withheld to satisfy an applicable withholding requirement, the shares of Stock withheld shall have a Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that could be imposed on the transaction unless the Committee determines otherwise.

     

     

     

     

    (c)             The obligation of the Company to deliver Stock shall also be subject to the condition that if at any time the Board shall determine in its discretion that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares of Stock on any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance of such shares, such shares may not be issued in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board. The issuance of shares of Stock, if any, to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement is subject to any applicable taxes and other laws or regulations of the United States or of any state, municipality or other country having jurisdiction thereof.

     

    6.             No Stockholder Rights.

The Participant acknowledges that no election under Section 83(b) of the Code is available with respect to Stock Units.

     

    7.             Grant Subject to Plan Provisions. This grant is made pursuant to the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, and in all respects shall be interpreted in accordance with the Plan. The grant and settlement of the Stock Units are subject to the provisions of the Plan and to interpretations, regulations and determinations concerning the Plan established from time to time by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, including, but not limited to, provisions pertaining to (a) rights and obligations with respect to withholding taxes, (b) the registration, qualification or listing of the shares of Stock, (c) changes in capitalization of the Company and (d) other requirements of applicable law. The Committee shall have the authority to interpret and construe the Stock Units pursuant to the terms of the Plan, and its decisions shall be conclusive as to any questions arising hereunder.

    12.           Application of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement is intended to be exempt from or otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Stock Units constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code and such Stock Units become vested upon the Participant’s termination of employment, settlement of such vested Stock Units shall be delayed for a period of six months after the Participant’s termination of employment if the Participant is a “specified employee” as defined under Section 409A of the Code and if required pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.

    1.             Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants the Participant ________ Restricted Stock Units (the “Stock Units”). Each Stock Unit represents the right of the Participant to receive a share of common stock of the Company (“Stock”), if and when the specified conditions are met in Section 3 below, and on the applicable settlement date set forth in Section 5 below.

     

    2.             No Rights Prior to Settlement. Stock Units represent hypothetical shares of Stock, and not actual shares of Stock. No shares of Stock shall be issued to the Participant at the time the grant of the Stock Units is made, and the Participant shall not be, and shall not have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Stock Units. The Participant shall not have any interest in any fund or specific assets of the Company by reason of this award.

     

    3.             Vesting.

     

    (a)             As of the date of this Agreement, all of the Stock Units shall be unvested and subject to a Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below.

     

    (b)             Subject to the terms of this Section 3, the Stock Units shall vest in accordance with the following vesting schedule: (i) 12/36ths of the Stock Units will vest on October 8, 2026 and (ii) 1/36ths of the Stock Units will vest on the eighth (8th) day of each month thereafter, provided that the Participant continues to be employed by, or provide service as a consultant, director or advisor of or to, the Company or one of its Affiliates from the Date of Grant until the Stock Units vest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Vesting Date” shall mean a date on which any or all of the Stock Units vest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.

     

    (c)             The vesting of the Stock Units shall be cumulative, but shall not exceed 100% of the Stock Units. If the foregoing schedule would produce fractional Stock Units, the number of Stock Units that vest shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Stock Unit and the fractional Stock Units will be accumulated so that the resulting whole Stock Units will be included in the number of Stock Units that become vested on the last Vesting Date.

     

     

     

     

    (d)             In the event of a Change of Control or a Transaction before all of the Stock Units vest in accordance with Section 3(a) above, the applicable provisions of the Plan shall apply to the Stock Units, and the Committee may take such actions as it deems appropriate pursuant to the provisions of the Plan.

     

    (e)             In the event that (i) Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates is terminated at any time by the Company or any of its Affiliates for any reason other than Cause (as defined in Section 3(g) below) or is terminated at any time by Participant for Good Reason (as defined in Section 3(h) below) and (ii) immediately after any such termination of employment, Participant does not have a service provider relationship of any kind (including, without limitation, as an officer, director, employee, consultant or advisor) with any of the Company and its Affiliates, then, effective immediately prior to any such termination of employment, any and all Stock Units that are then unvested and subject to Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below shall automatically become fully vested and free from Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below. For clarity, and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(e), this Section 3(e) shall not be applicable to any termination of Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates as a result of Participant’s death or disability.

     

    (f)             Those Stock Units that vest pursuant to this Section 3 or pursuant to any action taken by the Committee pursuant to the Plan shall become free from the Risk of Forfeiture pursuant to Section 4 below.

     

    (g)             For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following: (i) a conviction of Participant, or a plea of nolo contendere, to a felony (other than a felony related to the operation of a motor vehicle); or (ii) willful misconduct or gross negligence by Participant resulting, in either case, in material harm to the Company or any of its Affiliates; or (iii) a willful failure by Participant to carry out the reasonable and lawful directions of the Board and failure by Participant to remedy such willful failure within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of same from the Board; or (iv) fraud, embezzlement, theft or dishonesty of a material nature by Participant, or a willful material violation by Participant of a written policy or procedure of the Company or any of its Affiliates, resulting, in any case, in material harm to the Company or any of its Affiliates; or (v) a material breach by Participant of any agreement between Participant and the Company or any of its Affiliates, and failure by Participant to remedy the material breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such material breach.

     

    (h)             For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the occurrence of any of the following: (i) a material diminution in Participant’s base salary; or (ii) the Company’s or any Affiliate of the Company requiring Participant to be based at any office or location outside of fifty (50) miles from Cambridge, Massachusetts, except for travel reasonably required in the performance of Participant’s responsibilities; or (iii) a material breach by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company of any agreement between Participant and the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, and failure by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company to remedy such material breach within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such material breach. For purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason shall not be deemed to exist unless Participant’s termination of employment for Good Reason occurs within one hundred eighty days following the initial existence of one of the conditions specified in clauses (i) through (iii) above, Participant provides the Company with written notice of the existence of such condition within ninety (90) days after the initial existence of the condition, and the Company or any Affiliate of the Company fails to remedy the condition within thirty (30) days after the Company’s receipt of such notice from Participant.

     

     

     

     

    4.             Termination of Stock Units. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(e) above, if the Participant ceases to be a service provider to the Company and its Affiliates in all capacities as an employee, consultant, director and/or advisor of the Company and its Affiliates for any reason before all of the Stock Units vest, any unvested Stock Units shall automatically terminate and shall be forfeited as of the date of the Participant’s termination of such employment or service. No settlement or payment shall be made with respect to any unvested Stock Units that terminate as described in this Section 4.

     

    5.             Settlement of Stock Units and Tax Withholding.

     

    (a)             If a Stock Unit vests in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 above, then, subject to the provisions of this Section 5(a) and Sections 5(b), 5(c) and 12 below, the Company shall issue to the Participant one share of Stock for such vested Stock Unit, subject to applicable tax withholding obligations, on the earliest to occur of (1) the first payroll period on or after the date the Participant’s employment with or service to the Company ceases, (2) the first payroll period on or after the eighth (8th) day of the calendar month of June following any such Vesting Date applicable to such vested Stock Unit or (3) the first payroll period on or after the eighth (8th) day of the month of December following any such Vesting Date applicable to such vested Stock Unit; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to issue to Participant any share of Stock pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(a) with respect to any vested Stock Unit (or otherwise settle any such vested Stock Unit in shares of Stock) on any date that the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines Participant is subject to any limitation or restriction (including, without limitation, (1) any limitation or restriction under the Company’s insider trading policy as then in effect and (2) any limitation or restriction imposed by securities laws or other laws such as Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that does not permit Participant to offer to sell or sell on the public market on such date all of the shares of Stock that otherwise would be issued to Participant on such date pursuant to this Section 5(a) in settlement of such vested Stock Unit. Notwithstanding anything express or implied in the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(a) to the contrary, in no event shall settlement of a vested Stock Unit occur later than the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following the calendar year in which the Vesting Date applicable to such vested Stock Unit occurs, and in no event shall Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to designate the calendar year of payment.

     

    (b)             All obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to the right of the Company as set forth in the Plan to require the Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy statutory minimum federal, state, local, foreign or other withholding tax requirements if, when, and to the extent required by law prior to the issuance of shares of Stock. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be conditional on satisfaction of all such statutory minimum withholding obligations and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant or to utilize any other withholding method prescribed by the Committee from time to time. However, the Participant may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, acting in its sole discretion, to satisfy an applicable statutory minimum withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold shares of Stock to satisfy the Participant's tax obligations. Any such election shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee deems appropriate. If shares of Stock are withheld to satisfy an applicable withholding requirement, the shares of Stock withheld shall have a Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax that could be imposed on the transaction unless the Committee determines otherwise.

     

     

     

     

    (c)             The obligation of the Company to deliver Stock shall also be subject to the condition that if at any time the Board shall determine in its discretion that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares of Stock on any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance of such shares, such shares may not be issued in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board. The issuance of shares of Stock, if any, to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement is subject to any applicable taxes and other laws or regulations of the United States or of any state, municipality or other country having jurisdiction thereof.

     

    6.             No Stockholder Rights. Neither the Participant, nor any person entitled to receive Stock Units in the event of the Participant’s death, shall have any of the rights and privileges of a stockholder with respect to shares of Stock, including voting or dividend rights, until such shares of Stock have been issued upon settlement of Stock Units. The Participant acknowledges that no election under Section 83(b) of the Code is available with respect to Stock Units.

     

    7.             Grant Subject to Plan Provisions. This grant is made pursuant to the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, and in all respects shall be interpreted in accordance with the Plan. The grant and settlement of the Stock Units are subject to the provisions of the Plan and to interpretations, regulations and determinations concerning the Plan established from time to time by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, including, but not limited to, provisions pertaining to (a) rights and obligations with respect to withholding taxes, (b) the registration, qualification or listing of the shares of Stock, (c) changes in capitalization of the Company and (d) other requirements of applicable law. The Committee shall have the authority to interpret and construe the Stock Units pursuant to the terms of the Plan, and its decisions shall be conclusive as to any questions arising hereunder.

     

    8.             No Employment or Other Rights. The grant of the Stock Units shall not confer upon the Participant any right to be retained by or in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate and shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time. The right of the Company and any Affiliate to terminate at will the Participant’s employment or service at any time for any reason is specifically reserved.

     

     

     

     

    9.             Assignment and Transfers. The Stock Units are not transferable, and shall not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All of the Participant's rights in the Stock Units may be exercised during the life of the Participant only by the Participant or the Participant's legal representative. The rights and protections of the Company hereunder shall extend to any successors or assigns of the Company and to its Affiliates. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company without the Participant’s consent.

     

    10.           Governing Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

Any notice shall be delivered in accordance with Section 17 of the Plan.

     

    12.           Application of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement is intended to be exempt from or otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Stock Units constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code and such Stock Units become vested upon the Participant’s termination of employment, settlement of such vested Stock Units shall be delayed for a period of six months after the Participant’s termination of employment if the Participant is a “specified employee” as defined under Section 409A of the Code and if required pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. If settlement of any Stock Units is delayed in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 11, such Stock Units shall be settled within thirty (30) days after the date that is six (6) months following the Participant’s termination of employment. To the extent subject to Section 409A of the Code, settlement of the Stock Units may only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted by Section 409A of the Code, and each settlement of the Stock Units shall be treated as a separate payment, and the right to a series of installment payments under the Stock Units shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event shall the Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. The Company may change or modify the terms of this Agreement without the Participant’s consent or signature if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that such change or modification is necessary for purposes of compliance with or exemption from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or any regulations or other guidance issued thereunder. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Company may also amend the Plan or this Agreement or revoke the Stock Units to the extent permitted by the Plan.

    Leap Therapeutics Rebrands as Cypherpunk; Expands Leadership Team to Drive New Zcash Treasury Strategy

     

    Khing Oei appointed Chairman of the Board; 

    Will McEvoy appointed Chief Investment Officer and Member of the Board; 

    Cypherpunk Technologies Inc. announces acquisition of 203,775.27 ZEC.

     

    Cambridge, Mass., November 12, 2025 – Leap Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: LPTX) today announced it will change its name to Cypherpunk Technologies Inc., and unveiled a digital asset treasury strategy to accumulate Zcash’s native coin, ZEC. Cypherpunk has to date used $50 million of proceeds from the previously announced private placement to purchase 203,775.27 ZEC at an average purchase price of $245.37 per ZEC.

     

    In addition, the company also plans to change its ticker symbol to (Nasdaq: CYPH) as part of the rebranding under the Cypherpunk name. The company will begin trading under its new name and ticker symbol CYPH on Thursday, November 13. Until then, investors can continue to buy and sell the company’s stock under the current ticker symbol LPTX without interruption.

     

    Cypherpunk also announced the appointment of Khing Oei and Will McEvoy to its Board of Directors, effective November 11, 2025. This strategic move comes as part of the Company’s recently completed $58.88 million private placement led by Winklevoss Capital to initiate a digital asset treasury strategy. Notably, Winklevoss Capital was the only institutional investor in the private placement, contributing a majority of the total raised.

     

    “The recent weak performance of digital asset treasury companies stems from PIPEs dominated by short-term, mercenary capital. We’ve taken a different path by building a syndicate of value-aligned investors who believe in the long-term importance of Zcash and privacy for the United States and the world.” – Will McEvoy, Chief Investment Officer of Cypherpunk

     

    Khing Oei has been appointed Chairman of the Board, while Will McEvoy will also serve as the company’s first-ever Chief Investment Officer, effective in each case as of November 11, 2025. Concurrently with Mr. Oei’s appointment, Christopher Mirabelli, PhD, will step down from his role as Chairman, while remaining a member of the Board.

     

    “We are pleased to welcome Khing and Will to the Board of Directors, and to have Will serve as Chief Investment Officer as we advance our strategy to create long-term shareholder value through active participation in Zcash. Participant control and privacy, enabled by Zcash, are critical as financial transactions move increasingly to blockchain and tokenization. The rebranding and new leadership appointments mark a transformational step in expanding our mission as we enter a new phase of growth.” – Douglas E. Onsi, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cypherpunk

     

    Why This Matters

     

    Cypherpunk is a company dedicated to self-sovereignty. As the world becomes increasingly digitized, privacy has become a rare and vanishing resource. And despite their critical importance, privacy enhancing technologies remain under-adopted. Backing privacy today is both a generational mission and a massive opportunity. Privacy is the foundation that allows freedom of speech, thought, and association to thrive. Without it, these societal tentpoles may exist on paper but can’t be exercised meaningfully in practice. In other words, privacy is the silent precondition of freedom. Additionally, in a world where privacy is scarce, it becomes the most valuable commodity.

     

     

     

     

    Why Zcash?

     

    Zcash is one of the oldest and most respected privacy-preserving blockchains, launched in 2016 as a fork of Bitcoin with advanced cryptography that enables selective transparency. Built on the same sound monetary principles as Bitcoin, with a fixed 21 million coin supply, Zcash introduced a breakthrough in privacy technology through the use of zero-knowledge proofs (zk-SNARKs), allowing transactions to be verified without revealing sender, receiver, or amount. This innovation has since influenced the entire cryptographic landscape, inspiring privacy advancements across other blockchains like Ethereum and Solana.

     

    Since its inception, Zcash has processed tens of millions of transactions and consistently ranked among the top privacy coins by market capitalization. Its underlying protocol continues to evolve with major upgrades — including Halo 2, a trustless recursive proof system that eliminates the need for trusted setup ceremonies and enhances scalability. Nearly a decade after launch, Zcash remains one of the few digital assets with the potential for both Bitcoin-level decentralization and cutting-edge privacy, offering real utility with private yet auditable digital transactions.

     

    Cypherpunk Technologies Inc. sees Zcash as digital privacy in asset form, the same way Bitcoin has proven to be digital gold. Zcash also represents an important hedge against the transparency of Bitcoin and the existing financial infrastructure in an AI-abundant future.

In the transaction, the Company issued: (i) 15,212,311 shares of common stock, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 80,768,504 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, and (ii) warrants to purchase an additional 71,985,605 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.5335 per share.

     

    ·Successfully established a digital asset treasury strategy focused on Zcash (ZEC), acquiring more than 203,775.27 ZEC to date at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $50 million, or $245.37 per ZEC

     

    The Company believes that privacy-protecting assets and related technologies will be critical in an increasingly digital world. The Company intends to acquire and hold ZEC, the native coin of Zcash, as its primary digital asset and to be an active participant in the Zcash community. As of November 11, 2025, the Company has acquired 203,775.27 ZEC at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $50 million, or $245.37 per ZEC.

     

     

     

     

    Zcash functions much like Bitcoin, and it was created from the original Bitcoin code base. Like Bitcoin, Zcash is a digital currency that can be transmitted over a peer-to-peer payment system, except that Zcash uses a protocol called “zero-knowledge proofs” that allows users to engage in blockchain transactions while maintaining greater privacy. This cryptographic technology allows parties to decide whether or not to reveal sensitive information and enables private, public, shielding, and deshielding transactions on the Zcash blockchain. For example, the owner of a specific address is able to choose to disclose an address and transaction details to a trusted third party, potentially for compliance or audit reasons. Alternatively, transacting can work in a similar manner to the Bitcoin blockchain, where the sender and receiver addresses and value of the transfer are all publicly visible.

     

    ·Appointed digital asset executives Khing Oei as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Will McEvoy as a member of the Board of Directors and Chief Investment Officer

     

    On November 11, 2025, the Company appointed Khing Oei as Chairman of the Board of Directors, and Will McEvoy as Chief Investment Officer and a Board member. In conjunction with these appointments, Christopher Mirabelli stepped down from his role as Chairman of the Board of Directors, while remaining a Board member.

     

    Leap Therapeutics Highlights:

     

    ·Presented final clinical data from Part B of the DeFianCe study of sirexatamab plus bevacizumab and chemotherapy in CRC patients at ESMO Congress 2025.

     

    In a Mini Oral session at the ESMO Congress in October 2025, the Company presented the final results from Part B of the DeFianCe study, a Phase 2 study of sirexatamab, an anti-DKK1 monoclonal antibody, in combination with bevacizumab and chemotherapy (Sirexatamab Arm) compared to bevacizumab and chemotherapy (Control Arm) in patients with microsatellite stable CRC who have received one prior systemic therapy for advanced disease. Sirexatamab demonstrated a statistically significant benefit on overall response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with high levels of DKK1, along with a positive trend on ORR and PFS in the full intent-to-treat population.

     

    ·Across the DKK1-high (upper median) patients (n=88):
    oORR was 38.0% in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 23.7% ORR in the Control Arm.
    omPFS was 9.03 months in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 7.06 months in the Control Arm, Hazard Ratio (HR) 0.61, p-value = 0.0255.
    omOS was not reached in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 14.39 months in the Control Arm, HR 0.42, p-value = 0.0118.

     

    ·Across the DKK1-high (upper quartile) patients (n=44):
    oORR was 44.0% in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 15.8% ORR in the Control Arm.
    omPFS was 9.36 months in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 5.88 months in the Control Arm, HR 0.46, p-value = 0.0168.
    omOS was not reached in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 9.66 months in the Control Arm, HR 0.17, p-value < 0.001.

     

    ·In the full intent-to-treat population (n=188):
    oORR was 35.1% in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 26.6% ORR in the Control Arm.
    omPFS was 9.2 months in the Sirexatamab Arm compared to 8.3 months in the Control Arm, HR 0.84, p-value = 0.1712.
    oEvent-free rate favors Sirexatamab Arm beginning at month 9 (53 vs 47%) with further separation at month 12 (34 vs 23%).

     

     

     

     

    ·Advancing DKK1 biomarker diagnostic test and engaging with regulatory authorities.

     

    The Company is in the process of engaging with regulatory agencies in the United States and Europe to discuss the registrational pathway for sirexatamab in CRC. The Company is also working with a leading diagnostics research laboratory to optimize the DKK1 biomarker diagnostic test that could be used to identify CRC patients with poor prognosis and to select patients for treatment with sirexatamab. The Company expects to provide an update on the next steps in sirexatamab development and on the registrational pathway in the first quarter of 2026.

     

    Selected Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

     

    Net Loss was $3.3 million for the third quarter 2025, compared to $18.2 million for the third quarter 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in research and development and general and administrative expenses as a result of a reduction in force and the completion of the clinical trials.

     

    Research and development expenses were $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $14.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease of $13.7 million in research and development expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to a decrease of $5.3 million in clinical trial costs and a decrease of $3.7 million in manufacturing costs. There was also a decrease of $3.3 million in payroll and other related expenses due to a decrease in headcount of our R&D full-time employees, a decrease of $0.7 million in stock based compensation expense, and a decrease of $0.7 million in consulting fees.

     

    General and administrative expenses were $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease of $1.0 million in general and administrative expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2025 was due to a $0.5 million decrease in payroll and other related expenses due to a decrease in incentive based compensation expense for our general and administrative employees and a decrease in headcount of our general and administrative employees. There was also a decrease of $0.3 million in stock based compensation expense and a $0.2 million decrease in professional fees.

     

    Cash and cash equivalents totaled $9.7 million on September 30, 2025, prior to the completion of the $58.88 million private placement that closed in October 2025.
