SECOND AMENDMENT TO

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Second Amendment (this “Second Amendment”) to that certain Employment Agreement by and between Provention Bio, Inc. (the “Provention”) and Thierry Chauche (“Executive”) dated December 1, 2021 (as amended by the Amendment to Employment Agreement dated September 9, 2022, the “Employment Agreement”), is effective as of March 9, 2023.

WHEREAS, Provention and Executive are parties to that certain Employment Agreement;

WHEREAS, Executive and Provention desire to amend the Employment Agreement as set forth herein;

WHEREAS, this Second Amendment provides for the potential for increased benefits as compared to the benefits provided in the Employment Agreement, including, without limitation, the increased severance compensation set forth herein in the event of termination of the Employment Agreement (the “Additional Severance”);

WHEREAS, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the opportunity to receive Additional Severance is fair and reasonable consideration for the execution of this Second Amendment that is independent of Executive’s continued employment with the Company; and

NOW, THEREFORE, Executive and Provention hereby agree that the Employment Agreement shall be amended as follows:

Section 4.1 of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

“(ii) subject to Section 4.4, Section 4.5, Section 4.6, and Section 4.7, and compliance with the terms of the Covenants Agreement, (A) payments equal to eighteen (18) months of Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Termination Date (provided that if such salary has been reduced, the pre-reduction Base Salary), (B) eighteen (18) months of COBRA premiums, and (C) an amount equal to 1.5x Executive’s Target Annual Bonus, payable in substantially equal installments over the eighteen (18)-month severance period, in each case less applicable withholdings and authorized deductions (the “Post-CIC Severance Payments”), to be paid (subject to Section 5.16) in equal installments in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll schedule, commencing on the next regular payroll date that occurs on or after the sixtieth (60th) day following the Termination Date; provided, however, that payments under subsection (B) of this section will cease in the event that Executive secures substantially gainful employment from a new employer prior to the expiration of the time such payments are to be paid, and Executive agrees to immediately inform the Company in writing if Executive becomes employed by a new employer. In addition, Executive shall be deemed to be fully vested in any and all outstanding equity awards of Executive, and each of Executive’s outstanding stock options shall remain exercisable until the expiration date of the term of such option.”
