STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT

UNDER THE 2018 OMNIBUS EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Pursuant to this Stock Option Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) under the iBio, Inc. 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the related Stock Option Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) to which this Agreement is attached, iBio, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted the Optionee identified in the Grant Notice an Option to purchase the number of Shares of Stock indicated in the Grant Notice at the Exercise Price indicated in the Grant Notice.

This Option is granted in connection with and in furtherance of the Plan, which is a compensatory benefit plan for the Company’s Employees (including officers), Non-Employee Directors and Consultants. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan or the Grant Notice.

The details of the Option are as follows:

1.            Grant of Option. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, the Company grants to Optionee the right and option to purchase from the Company all or any part of the aggregate number of shares of Stock specified in the Grant Notice (“Option”).

2.            Exercise Price. The exercise price under this Agreement is the exercise price per share of Stock specified in the Grant Notice, as determined by the Committee, which shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Date of Grant.

3.            Vesting.  Subject to the limitations contained herein, the Option will vest as set forth in the Grant Notice, provided that vesting will cease upon the termination of Optionee’s continuous employment (or in the case of a Non-Employee Director, continuous service).

4.            Method of Payment.  This Option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time after it vests by delivery of a written notice of exercise (the form of which shall be prescribed by the Company) and payment of the exercise price.  The exercise price may be paid in cash, or shares of Stock held for longer than six (6) months (through actual tender or by attestation), or such other method permitted by the Board of Directors (including broker-assisted “cashless exercise” arrangements) and communicated to the Optionee before the date the Optionee exercises the Option.

5.            Whole Shares. The Option may only be exercised for whole Shares.

6.            Securities Law Compliance.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Option may not be exercised unless the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Option are then registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or, if such Shares are not then so registered, the Company has determined that such exercise and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933.

7.            Term.  The term of the Option commences on the Date of Grant and expires upon the earliest of:
