WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the ImmunoGen, Inc. 2006 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to promote the interests of the Company by providing an incentive for employees, directors an d consultants of the Company or its Affiliates;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the Company desires to offer to the Non-Employee Director shares of the Company’s common stock, $.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”), in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, all on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;

WHEREAS, Non-Employee Director wishes to accept said offer; and

WHEREAS, the parties hereto understand and agree that any terms used and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.             Terms of Grant .  The Non-Employee Director hereby accepts the offer of the Company to issue to the Non-Employee Director, in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement,                                              (                  ) Shares of the Company’s Common Stock (such shares, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 24 of the Plan and Subsection 2.1(h) hereof, the “Granted Shares”) at a purchase price per share of $.01 (the “Purchase Price”), receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by the Non-Employee Director’s prior service to the Company and which amount will be reported as income on the Non-Employee Director’s 1099 for this calendar year(1).

2.1.          Forfeiture Provisions .

(a)           Lapsing Forfeiture Right .  In the event that for any reason the Non-Employee Director is no longer a director of the Company (such event being the “Termination”) prior to                                     , the Non-Employee Director (or the Non-Employee Director’s Survivor) shall, on the date of Termination, immediately forfeit to the Company (or its designee) all of the Granted Shares which have not yet lapsed in accordance with the schedule set forth below (the “Lapsing Forfeiture Right”).

The Company’s Lapsing Forfeiture Right is as follows:


(1) Consider statutory minimum purchase price per share, if applicable (e.g., Delaware requires at least par value).




 

(i)            If the Non-Employee Director’s Termination is prior to [the first anniversary of the Grant Date] , all of the Granted Shares shall be forfeited to the Company.

(ii)           If the Non-Employee Director’s Termination is on or after [the first anniversary of the Grant Date] but prior to                               ,     % of the Granted Shares shall be forfeited to the Company.

(b)           Effect of Termination for Disability or upon Death .  The following rules apply if the Non-Employee Director’s Termination is by reason of Disability or death:  to the extent the Company’s Lapsing Forfeiture Right has not lapsed as of the date of Disability or death, as case may be, the Non-Employee Director shall forfeit to the Company any or all of the Granted Shares subject to such Lapsing Forfeiture Right; provided, however, that the Company’s Lapsing Forfeiture Right shall be deemed to have lapsed to the extent of a pro rata portion of the Granted Shares through the date of Disability or death, as would have lapsed had the Non-Employee Director not become Disabled or died, as the case may be.  The proration shall be based upon the number of days accrued in such current vesting period prior to the Non-Employee Director’s date of Disability or death, as the case may be.

(c)           Effect of a For Cause Termination .    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event the Company terminates the Non-Employee Director’s service for Cause (as defined in the Plan) or in the event the Administrator determines, within one year after the Non-Employee Director’s termination, that either prior or subsequent to the Non-Employee Director’s termination the Non-Employee Director engaged in conduct that would constitute Cause, all of the Granted Shares then held by the Non-Employee Director shall be forfeited to the Company immediately as of the time the Non-Employee Director is notified that he or she has been terminated for Cause or that he or she engaged in conduct which would constitute Cause.

(d)           Effect of Change of Control .  Except as otherwise provided in Subsection 2.1(c) above, the Company’s Lapsing Forfeiture Right shall terminate, and the Non-Employee Director’s ownership of all Granted Shares then owned by the Non-Employee Director shall become vested upon a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan).

(e)           Escrow .  The certificates representing all Granted Shares acquired by the Non-Employee Director hereunder which from time to time are subject to the Lapsing Forfeiture Right shall be delivered to the Company and the Company shall hold such Granted Shares in escrow as provided in this Subsection 2.1(e). The Company shall promptly release from escrow and deliver to the Non-Employee Director the whole number of Granted Shares, if any, as to which the Company’s Lapsing Forfeiture Right has lapsed and without the legend set forth in Section 5. In the event of forfeiture to the Company of Granted Shares subject to the Lapsing Forfeiture Right, the Company shall release from escrow and cancel a certificate for the number of Granted Shares so forfeited.  Any securities distributed in respect of the Granted Shares held in escrow, including, without limitation, shares issued as a result of stock splits, stock dividends or other recapitalizations, shall also be held in escrow in the same manner as the Granted Shares.

(f)            Prohibition on Transfer .  The Non-Employee Director recognizes and agrees that all Granted Shares which are subject to the Lapsing Forfeiture Right may not be sold, transferred, assigned, hypothecated, pledged, encumbered or otherwise disposed of, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, other than to the Company (or its designee).   However, the Non-Employee Director, with the approval of the Administrator, may transfer the Granted Shares for no consideration to or for the benefit of the Non-Employee Director’s Immediate Family (including, without limitation, to a trust for the benefit of the Non-Employee Director’s Immediate Family or to a partnership or limited liability company for one or

more members of the Non-Employee Director’s Immediate Family), subject to such limits as the Administrator may establish, and the transferee shall remain subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to this Agreement prior to such transfer and each such transferee shall so acknowledge in writing as a condition precedent to the effectiveness of such transfer.  The term “Immediate Family” shall mean the Non-Employee Director’s spouse, former spouse, parents, children, stepchildren, adoptive relationships, sisters, brothers, nieces and nephews and grandchildren (and, for this purpose, shall also include the Non-Employee Director.)   The Company shall not be required to transfer any Granted Shares on its books which shall have been sold, assigned or otherwise transferred in violation of this Subsection 2.1(f), or to treat as the owner of such Granted Shares, or to accord the right to vote as such owner or to pay dividends to, any person or organization to which any such Granted Shares shall have been so sold, assigned or otherwise transferred, in violation of this Subsection 2.1(f).

(g)           Failure to Deliver Granted Shares to be Forfeited .  In the event that the Granted Shares to be forfeited to the Company under this Agreement are not in the Company’s possession pursuant to Subsection 2.1(e) above or otherwise and the Non-Employee Director or the Non-Employee Director’s Survivor fails to deliver such Granted Shares to the Company (or its designee), the Company may immediately take such action as is appropriate to transfer record title of such Granted Shares from the Non-Employee Director to the Company (or its designee) and treat the Non-Employee Director and such Granted Shares in all respects as if delivery of such Granted Shares had been made as required by this Agreement.  The Non-Employee Director hereby irrevocably grants the Company a power of attorney which shall be coupled with an interest for the purpose of effectuating the preceding sentence.

(h)           Adjustments .  The Plan contains provisions covering the treatment of Shares in a number of contingencies such as stock splits and mergers.  Provisions in the Plan for adjustment with respect to the Granted Shares and the related provisions with respect to successors to the business of the Company are hereby made applicable hereunder and are incorporated herein by reference.

2.2                                  General Restrictions on Transfer of Granted Shares .

(a)           The Non-Employee Director agrees that in the event the Company proposes to offer for sale to the public any of its equity securities and such Non-Employee Director is requested by the Company and any underwriter engaged by the Company in connection with such offering to sign an agreement restricting the sale or other transfer of Shares, then it will promptly sign such agreement and will not transfer, whether in privately negotiated transactions or to the public in open market transactions or otherwise, any Shares or other securities of the Company held by him or her during such period as is determined by the Company and the underwriters, not to exceed 90 days following the closing of the offering, plus such additional period of time as may be required to comply with Marketplace Rule 2711 of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or similar rules thereto (such period, the “Lock-Up Period”).  Such agreement shall be in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and such underwriter and pursuant to customary and prevailing terms and conditions.  Notwithstanding whether the Non-Employee Director has signed such an agreement, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Shares or other securities of the Company subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of the Lock-Up Period.
