Separation and Release of Claims Agreement
This Separation and Release of Claims Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between UiPath, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “UiPath” or “the Company”), on behalf of itself, its parent(s), subsidiaries, and other corporate affiliates, and each of their respective present and former employees, officers, directors, owners, shareholders, and agents, individually and in their official capacities (collectively referred to as the “Company”), and Thomas Hansen (the “Employee”) (the Company and the Employee are collectively referred to as the “Parties”).
The Employee’s last day of employment with the Company is April 30, 2022 (the “Separation Date”). After the Separation Date, the Employee will not represent and has not represented himself/herself as being an employee, officer, attorney, agent, or representative of the Company for any purpose. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the Separation Date is the employment termination date for the Employee for all purposes, meaning the Employee is not entitled to any further compensation, monies, or other benefits from the Company as of the Separation Date.
1.Return of Property. The Employee warrants and represents that he/she has returned all Company property, including identification cards or badges, access codes or devices, keys, laptops, computers, telephones, mobile phones, hand-held electronic devices, credit cards, electronically stored documents or files, physical files, and any other Company property in the Employee’s possession.
2.Employee Representations. The Employee specifically represents, warrants, and confirms that the Employee:
(a)has not filed any claims, complaints, or actions of any kind against the Company with any court of law, or local, state, or federal government or agency;
(b)has not made any claims or allegations to the Company related to sexual harassment or sexual abuse, and that none of the payments set forth in this Agreement are related to sexual harassment or sexual abuse;
(c)has been properly paid for all hours worked for the Company;
(d)has received all salary, wages, commissions, bonuses, and other compensation due to the Employee, through and including the Separation Date (except for possibly the final paycheck and any commissions that may be owed as set forth in Section 3 herein); and
(e)has not engaged in and is not aware of any unlawful conduct relating to the business of the Company.
3.Separation Benefits. As consideration for the Employee’s execution of, non-revocation of, and compliance with this Agreement, including the Employee’s waiver and release of claims in Section 5 and other post-termination obligations, the Company agrees to provide the following benefits to which the Employee is not otherwise entitled:


Exhibit 10.1
(f)Severance. A lump sum payment of the gross amount of $518,750.00, less all relevant taxes and other withholdings, to be paid as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date, which shall be paid within sixty (60) days from the Separation Date.
(g)COBRA Subsidy. Should Employee timely elect coverage under the Consolidated
Budgeted Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), the Company shall provide to Employee at the Company’s expense, a subsidy to cover 100% of the health-related employee insurance coverage (including medical, dental and vision) through COBRA for the Employee and his/her dependents for up to three (3) months beginning on the first of the month following the month of the Separation Date.
(h)Early Exercised Shares/Right of Repurchase.
(i)The parties acknowledge that the Company granted the Employee the option to purchase 1,600,947 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option Shares”) pursuant to the UiPath, Inc. 2018 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) and the applicable Notice of Stock Option Grant and Stock Option Agreement (collectively, the “Option Documents”). On August 13, 2020, the Employee early exercised an option and purchased 1,482,723 unvested
Class A shares of common stock (treated as non-statutory options), subject to the Company’s right of repurchase (the “Early Exercised Shares”). In light of the Employee’s departure from the Company effective May 1, 2022, a total of 741,362 Early Exercised Shares remain subject to the Company’s right of repurchase (the “Remaining Unvested Shares”).
(ii)With respect to the Remaining Unvested Shares, the Company agrees to waive its right of repurchase with respect to 300,178 Class A shares of common stocks, which shall be issued to the Employee as unrestricted shares of Class A common stock as soon as practicable following the date on which this Separation Agreement becomes irrevocable.
(iii)The Company has determined to exercise its right of repurchase with regard to the remaining 441,184 Remaining Unvested Shares (the “Repurchased Shares”). Accordingly, the Company shall pay to Employee the repurchase amount of $1,492,672 for the Repurchased Shares within [45] days following the date on which this Separation Agreement becomes irrevocable.
(iv)Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option Shares will be treated in accordance with the Plan and the Option Documents. As Employee has not vested in all shares subject to the Option and RSU, the unvested Option and RSU shall expire and be cancelled on the Separation Date.
The Employee understands, acknowledges, and agrees that these benefits exceed what the Employee is otherwise entitled to receive on separation from employment, and that these benefits are being given as consideration in exchange for executing this Agreement and the general release and restrictive covenants contained herein. The Employee further acknowledges that the Employee is not entitled to any additional payment or consideration not specifically referenced in this Agreement.
4.Release.

Exhibit 10.1
In exchange for the consideration provided in this Agreement, except for any
commissions that may be owed as set forth in Section 3 herein, the Employee and the Employee’s heirs, executors, representatives, administrators, agents, insurers, and assigns (collectively, the “Releasors”) irrevocably and unconditionally fully and forever waive, release, and discharge the Company, including its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, and assigns, and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees, and shareholders, in their corporate and individual capacities (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of actions, judgments, rights, fees, damages, debts, obligations, liabilities, and expenses (inclusive of attorneys’ fees) of any kind whatsoever, whether known or unknown (collectively, “Claims”), that Employee may have or has ever had against the Released Parties, or any of them, arising out of, or in any way related to the Employee’s hire, benefits, employment, termination, or separation from employment with the Company by reason of any actual or alleged act, omission, transaction, practice, conduct, occurrence, or other matter from the beginning of time up to and including the date of the Employee’s execution of this Agreement, including, but not limited to:
(i)any and all claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
(regarding existing but not prospective claims), the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the Equal Pay Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) (regarding unvested benefits), the Civil Rights Act of 1991, Section 1981 of U.S.C. Title 42, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act, the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Uniform Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA), the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA), the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA), the New York State Human Rights Law, the New York Labor Law (including but not limited to the Retaliatory Action by Employers Law, the New York State Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, all provisions prohibiting discrimination and retaliation, and all provisions regulating wage and hour law), the New York Civil Rights Law, Section 125 of the New York Workers' Compensation Law, Article 23-A of the New York Correction Law, the New York City Earned Sick Leave Law, all including any amendments and their respective implementing regulations, and any other federal, state, local, or foreign law (statutory, regulatory, or otherwise) that may be legally waived and released; however, the identification of specific statutes is for purposes of example only, and the omission of any specific statute or law shall not limit the scope of this general release in any manner;
(ii)any and all claims for compensation of any type whatsoever, including but not limited to claims for salary, wages, bonuses, commissions (except for possibly the final paycheck and for any commissions that may be owed as set forth in Section 3 herein), incentive compensation, vacation, and severance that may be legally waived and released;
(iii)any and all claims arising under tort, contract, and quasi-contract law, including but not limited to claims of breach of an express or implied contract, tortious interference with contract or prospective business advantage, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, promissory estoppel, detrimental reliance, invasion of privacy, nonphysical injury, personal injury or sickness or any other harm, wrongful or retaliatory discharge, fraud, defamation, slander, libel, false imprisonment, and negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress; and


Exhibit 10.1
(iv)any and all claims for monetary or equitable relief, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, back pay, front pay, reinstatement, experts’ fees, medical fees or expenses, costs and disbursements, punitive damages, liquidated damages, and penalties; and

not waive, release, or discharge: (A) any right to file an administrative charge or complaint with, or testify, assist, or participate in an investigation, hearing, or proceeding conducted by, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or other similar federal or state administrative agencies, although the Employee waives any right to monetary relief related to any filed charge or administrative complaint; and (B) claims that cannot be waived by law, such as claims for unemployment benefit rights and workers’ compensation.
To the extent applicable, the Employee specifically waives the protections of California Civil Code Section 1542, which states that “a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
