 RECITALS 

A. Sublessor or its predecessor and Sublessee or its predecessor have heretofore entered into that certain Sublease dated as of
March 24, 2009 (the “Sublease”) for premises consisting of approximately 18,368 square feet, as described therein (the “Subleased Premises”), in the building located at 400 Oyster Point Boulevard, Suite 200, South San
Francisco, California (the “Building”), which forms part of the office building complex commonly known as Oyster Point Marina Plaza (the “Complex”). 
 B. Sublessor leases the Premises from the owner of the Building (the “Master Landlord”) pursuant to a certain lease agreement dated May 15, 2007 (the “Master Lease”). 

C. The Sublease has not heretofore been amended or assigned. 
 D. The Term of the Sublease commenced on June 1, 2009, and in the absence of this Agreement would have expired on October 31, 2012. 

E. The parties mutually desire to terminate the Sublease, all on and subject to the terms and conditions hereof. 

AGREEMENT 
 Now therefore, in consideration of the mutual terms and conditions herein contained and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties
agree as follows: 
 1 TERMINATION EFFECTIVE DATE. This Agreement shall be effective
as an executory contract between the parties immediately upon their full execution and delivery of the Agreement to each other. The termination of the Sublease (subject to Section 3.2 hereof) provided for hereunder shall become effective at
11:59 p.m. on June 30, 2012 (the “Termination Effective Date”). 
 2 TERMINATION. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the Sublease, the Term of the Sublease shall be deemed to have terminated and expired on the Termination Effective Date, subject to Section 3.2 hereof; provided, however, that if Sublessee shall violate any material
provisions hereof, or if Sublessee’s representations herein shall be false in any material respect, Sublessor shall have the right to declare such termination null and void and to reinstate the Sublease, in addition to, and not in lieu of, any
other rights or remedies that may be available to Sublessor. The Premises shall be deemed to have been surrendered by Sublessee on the Termination Effective Date, but Sublessee shall nevertheless fully comply with all obligations under the Sublease
through the Termination Effective Date, including those provisions relating to the condition of the Premises and removal of Sublessee’s personal property upon expiration of the Sublease. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Expiration
Date” set forth in the Sublease shall be understood to mean the Termination Effective Date as defined above. 
 2.1
Condition Precedent. This Agreement is expressly conditioned upon Master Landlord’s ability to enter into a two-year lease agreement with a new tenant for the majority of the Premises, and the partial termination of the Master Lease with
respect to the Premises on terms acceptable to Sublessor. If Master Landlord fails for any reason to enter into such a new lease agreement for the Premises on or before the Termination Effective Date, or if the Master Lease is not partially
terminated with respect to the Premises effective on or before the Termination Effective Date (including, without limitation, the failure of a condition to such partial termination) this Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force or
effect, and the Sublease shall continue in effect through its Expiration Date fully as though the parties had never executed and delivered this Agreement to each other.

 3 DISPOSITION OF PROPERTY. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Sublease, it is understood and agreed that Sublessee shall remove from the Premises all of Sublessee’s improvements, fixtures, and equipment. Sublessee shall leave upon the Premises improvements,
furniture, fixtures, and equipment described in Exhibit A (collectively “FFE”), and upon the Termination Effective Date, Sublessee hereby transfers all of Sublessee’s right, title, and interest (if any) in such items to
Sublessor, on an “as is where is” basis, fully as though by bill of sale. 
 3.1 Sublessee’s Furniture,
Fixtures, & Equipment. In consideration of Sublessor’s agreement to permit the termination of the Sublease effected under this Agreement, Sublessee agrees to transfer all its right, title, and interest in FFE to Sublessor by bill
of sale on the Termination Effective Date at no charge to Sublessor. 
 3.2 Temporary Use by Sublessee.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Sublessor agrees that Sublessee shall be allowed to continue to utilize for its current purpose, on a temporary basis, in the portion of the Premises constituting the new Suite 212 (as depicted
on Exhibit B) that will be created on the Termination Effective Date through July 31, 2012, at no charge to Sublessee. The provisions of the Sublease shall survive during any such period, and apply to the use of such space. 

4 PAYMENTS, AMENDMENTS, SECURITY DEPOSIT. Sublessee shall continue to pay all rentals and other charges under
the Sublease through the Termination Effective Date, all of which shall be prorated on a per diem basis. Any undetermined charges may be billed to Sublessee when determined (and Sublessee’s obligation to pay the same shall survive termination
of the Sublease), or Sublessor may reasonably estimate such charges and require that Sublessee pay the same within thirty (30) days after Sublessor bills the same, subject to adjustment after the actual charges have been determined. Sublessor
and Sublessee agree that Sublessee shall not be required to pay a lease termination fee in connection with the partial termination of the Sublease agreed hereunder. The parties understand and agree that the in accordance with Section 5 of the
Sublease and Section 5.1.3 of the Master Lease, Sublessor shall promptly return to Sublessee any portion of the Security Deposit remaining as of the Termination Effective Date. 
 5 MUTUAL RELEASES. In consideration of Sublessor’s releasing Sublessee from the obligation to pay the balance of the rentals due under the Sublease and
executing this Agreement, and in consideration of Sublessee’s agreement to pay the amounts described in § 4 above and of the representations and other agreements herein contained, Sublessor and Sublessee hereby release and forever
discharge each other and their respective partners, officers, directors, agents, trustees, beneficiaries, and employees of and from any and all claims, liabilities, acts, damages, demands, rights of action, and causes of action which each party ever
had, now has, or in the future may have against the other arising from or in any way connected with the Sublease, except for those obligations and liabilities contained herein or reinstated pursuant to the provisions hereof. This release is intended
as a full settlement and compromise of each, every, and all claims and liabilities of every kind and nature. Both parties expressly waive any and all rights which they may have under § 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California (or
such similar statutes), which provides as follows: 
 Sublessor and Sublessee understand and agree that by execution of this Agreement, the
other party and its partners, officers, directors, agents, trustees, beneficiaries, and employees do not admit any liability of any nature whatsoever. This Agreement is made entirely as a compromise and for the purpose of terminating the term of a
portion of the Sublease and settling and extinguishing the respective claims, acts, damages, demands, rights of action, or causes of action of Sublessor and Sublessee with respect to the Sublease. 

6 WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS. Each party represents to the other that it has full power
and authority to execute this Agreement. Each party represents to the other that, except as recited herein, it has not made any assignment, sublease, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of the Sublease or any interest in the Sublease or the
Premises and that it has no knowledge of any existing or threatened claim, demand, obligation, liability, action, or cause of action arising from or in any manner connected with the Sublease or the Premises by any other party. Sublessee represents
that Sublessee has not at any time done or suffered, and will not do or suffer, any act or thing whereby the Premises or any part thereof are or may be in any way charged, affected, or covered by any lien or claim and shall indemnify, defend,
protect, and hold Sublessor harmless from all liabilities, claims, expenses, damages, or costs arising from the same, including (without limitation) attorneys’ fees and costs. 
 7 HOLDING OVER. Sublessee shall comply with Section 6 of the Sublease in the event that Sublessee (or any subtenants or other occupants of the Premises)
retains possession of the Premises or any part thereof after the
