 Exhibit 10.2 
 LEASE TERMINATION AGREEMENT 
 THIS LEASE TERMINATION AGREEMENT
(“Agreement”) is entered into as of the 24th day of August, 2012, by and between TREA PACIFIC PLAZA, LLC (“Landlord”), and SOMAXON PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. (“Tenant”), with respect to the premises consisting of 12,109
rentable square feet of space known as Suite 250 (the “Premises”) within the building commonly known as 10935 Vista Sorrento Parkway, San Diego, California (the “Building”), as more particularly described in the that certain
Office Lease dated May 24, 2011 (the “Lease”). 
 1. The Term of the Lease is scheduled to expire on
October 31, 2016; however, Landlord and Tenant now desire to terminate the Lease early upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Capitalized terms which are used in this Agreement without definition have the meanings given to
them in the Lease. 
 2. As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and the early termination of the Lease,
Landlord shall enter into a lease of the Premises with GreatCall, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GreatCall”), upon terms and conditions that are mutually agreeable to both Landlord and GreatCall, on or before September 1, 2012. If
Landlord does not enter into a lease of the Premises with GreatCall on or before September 1, 2012, the Lease shall not terminate, Tenant shall remain as “Tenant” under the Lease, and Tenant shall be and remain liable for all of
Tenant’s obligations under the Lease for the remainder of the Term. 
 3. Tenant shall vacate and surrender the Premises to
Landlord no later than 11:59 p.m. on September 7, 2012 (the “Termination Date”), provided that GreatCall, Inc., a Delaware corporation, may enter the Premises prior to the Termination Date to perform Tenant Improvements (subject to
the constraint that Tenant’s business is not unreasonably disturbed). 
 4. In consideration for Landlord’s agreement
to terminate the Lease early, Tenant shall pay Landlord a termination fee in the amount of Two Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($200,000.00) (“Termination Fee”) upon the execution of this Agreement. The Termination Fee may be in the
form of converting the existing Letter of Credit to cash and disbursing the cash to Landlord. 
 5. Subject to the next
succeeding sentence, Tenant hereby agrees that all furniture that is currently in the Premises shall remain in the Premises. Upon the Termination Date, said furniture shall become the property of Landlord, with the exception of (a) up to nine
(9) office sets and six (6) workstations, and (b) one set of conference room furniture and AV/computer set-up (which furniture and AV/computer set-up will not come from the current board room in the Premises). Tenant will also remove
its phone system and server-racks when it vacates the Premises. 
 6. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant shall continue to
comply with its existing obligations under the Lease, including timely payment of rent and all operating expenses, if any, through to the Termination Date and Tenant’s surrender of the Premises to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement. 







 7. Tenant hereby represents and warrants as follows: (a) it has the power and authority to
enter into this Agreement and undertake the obligations and enforcement hereof, (b) it has terminated any and all prior assignments of any of its interests under the Lease and any sublease of any of the Premises, (c) it has obtained
all consents of third parties required for the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or the termination of the Lease, (d) there has not been filed by or against Tenant a petition in bankruptcy, voluntary or otherwise, any assignment for the
benefit of creditors, any petition seeking reorganization or arrangement under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or any state thereof, or any other action brought pursuant to such bankruptcy laws with respect to Tenant (each, a
“Bankruptcy”), (e) Tenant shall not file or cause to be filed any Bankruptcy proceeding providing for Tenant as debtor within the one hundred twenty (120) days (the “Non Bankruptcy Period”) immediately following
Tenant’s execution of this Agreement, and (f) if any Bankruptcy proceeding is filed against Tenant within the Non Bankruptcy Period, Tenant shall use best efforts to cause this Agreement to be confirmed by the trustee and cause any
payments and obligations under this Agreement to be deemed non-preferential. 
 8. Landlord hereby represents and warrants as
follows: (a) it has the power and authority to enter into this Agreement and undertake the obligations and enforcement hereof, (b) it has obtained all consents of third parties required for the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or the
termination of the Lease, (c) there has not been filed by or against Landlord a petition in Bankruptcy, (d) Landlord shall not file or cause to be filed any Bankruptcy proceeding providing for Landlord as debtor within the Non Bankruptcy
Period, and (e) if any Bankruptcy proceeding is filed against Landlord within the Non Bankruptcy Period, Landlord shall use best efforts to cause this Agreement to be confirmed by the trustee and cause any payments and obligations under this
Agreement to be deemed non-preferential. 
 9. Landlord hereby agrees that subject to Tenant’s compliance with the terms of
this Agreement, including without limitation surrender of the Premises on or before the Termination Date and timely payment of the Termination Fee, the Lease will be deemed terminated as of 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on the Termination Date. Effective
as of the Termination Date, each of Landlord and Tenant (a “Releasing Party”) does hereby release and discharge and agrees to hold the other party and each of its members, shareholders, officers, directors, agents and employees, and each
of their respective predecessors, successors, assigns and the employees, shareholders, officers, directors, agents and employees (collectively, “Successors”), jointly and severally, free and harmless from any and all claims, demands,
causes of action, losses, expenses, obligations, damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and liabilities of any nature whatsoever (collectively “Claims”), whether or not now known, suspected or claimed, which the Releasing Party (or any
individual or entity acting through the Releasing Party) ever had, now has or may claim to have, against the other party or any of the other party’s Successors resulting from, arising out of or related to the Lease, this Agreement or the
Premises (the “Releases”), provided that the Release shall not apply to Tenant’s obligation to: (i) timely pay rent and all operating expenses, if any, through to the Termination Date, (ii) timely and properly surrender the
Premises to Landlord in accordance with the terms of the Lease, subject to paragraph 3 hereof, and (iii) pay the Termination Fee to Landlord in accordance with Section 4 above (collectively, the “Surviving Claims”). 

10. Each of Tenant and Landlord acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts different from or in addition to those it now knows or
believes to be true with respect to the Claims which are the subject of the Releases set forth in Paragraph 8 above, and each such party expressly agrees to assume the risk of the possible discovery of additional or different facts, and agrees that
such Releases shall be and remain effective in all respects, regardless of such additional or different facts, provided that the Release shall not apply to the Surviving Claims.

 11. Each of Tenant and Landlord understands and agrees that it expressly waives and
relinquishes all rights and benefits, if any, it may have under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code with respect only to the Claims which are the subject of the Releases (excepting the Surviving Claims) set forth in Paragraph 8 above.
California Civil Code Section 1542 reads as follows: 
 “§1542 [CERTAIN CLAIMS NOT AFFECTED BY GENERAL
RELEASE.] 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.”
