 ELOXX PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. 

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 

RECITALS 

A.    This option has been granted to Optionee outside of, but subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan as if it
has been granted under the Plan. The option is granted in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5634(c)(4) as a material inducement to you entering into employment with the Corporation. For the avoidance of doubt, the shares of Common Stock underlying
this option shall not reduce and shall have no impact on the number of shares available for grant under the Plan. 

B.    The Board has adopted the Plan for the purpose of retaining the services of selected employees who provide services
to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary). 
 C.    Optionee is to render valuable services to the Corporation
(or a Parent or Subsidiary), and the Committee has approved the grant of an option to Optionee pursuant to this Agreement. 

D.    All capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to them in the attached Appendix. 

NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed as follows: 

1.    Grant of Option. The Corporation hereby grants to Optionee, as of the Grant Date, an option to
purchase up to the number of Option Shares specified in the Grant Notice. The Option Shares shall be purchasable from time to time during the option term specified in Paragraph 2 at the Exercise Price. 

2.    Option Term. This option shall have a maximum term of ten (10) years measured from the Grant Date
and shall accordingly expire at the close of business on the Expiration Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with Paragraph 5 of this Agreement or the provisions of the Plan. 

3.    Limited Transferability. This option shall be neither transferable nor assignable by Optionee other
than by will or the laws of inheritance following Optionee’s death and may be exercised, during Optionee’s lifetime, only by Optionee. 

4.    Dates of Exercise. This option shall become exercisable for the Option Shares in one or more
installments in accordance with the Exercise Schedule set forth in the Grant Notice. As the option becomes exercisable for such installments, those installments shall accumulate, and the option shall remain exercisable for the accumulated
installments until the Expiration Date or sooner termination of the option term under Paragraph 5 or 6. 

5.    Termination of Service. The option term specified in Paragraph 2 shall terminate (and this option
shall cease to be outstanding) prior to the Expiration Date should any of the following provisions become applicable: 

(a)    Should Optionee cease to remain in Service with the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary) for any reason (other
than death, Permanent Disability or Misconduct) while this option is outstanding, then Optionee shall have a three (3)-month period measured from the date of such cessation of Service during which to exercise this option, but in no event shall this
option be exercisable at any time after the Expiration Date. 







 (b)    Should Optionee die while this option is outstanding, then this option
may be exercised by (i) the personal representative of Optionee’s estate or (ii) the person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to Optionee’s will or the laws of inheritance following Optionee’s death. Any
such right to exercise this option shall lapse, and this option shall cease to be outstanding, upon the earlier of (i) the expiration of the twelve (12)-month period measured from the date of Optionee’s death or (ii) the Expiration
Date. 
 (c)    Should Optionee cease to remain in Service by reason of Permanent Disability while this option is
outstanding, then Optionee shall have a twelve (12)-month period measured from the date of such cessation of Service during which to exercise this option. In no event shall this option be exercisable at any time after the Expiration Date. 

(d)    During the limited period of post-employment exercisability, this option may not be exercised in the aggregate for
more than the number of Option Shares for which this option is, at the time of Optionee’s termination of Service, exercisable pursuant to the Exercise Schedule specified in the Grant Notice or the provisions of the Plan. This option shall not
become exercisable for any additional Option Shares, whether pursuant to the normal Exercise Schedule specified in the Grant Notice or the provisions of the Plan, following Optionee’s termination of Service, except to the extent (if any)
specifically authorized by the Plan Administrator pursuant to an express written agreement with Optionee. Upon the expiration of such limited exercise period or (if earlier) upon the Expiration Date, this option shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding for any exercisable Option Shares for which the option has not otherwise been exercised. 
 (e)    Should
Optionee’s Service with the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary) be terminated for Misconduct or should Optionee otherwise engage in any Misconduct while this option is outstanding, then this option shall terminate immediately and cease to
remain outstanding. 
 6.    Change in Control. 

(a)    This option to the extent outstanding at the time of a Change in Control but not otherwise fully exercisable, shall
automatically accelerate so that such option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of that Change in Control, become exercisable for all the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to this option and may be exercised for any or all of
those shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock. However, this option shall not become exercisable on an accelerated basis if and to the extent this option is, in connection with the Change in Control, to be assumed by the successor corporation
(or parent thereof) or otherwise continued in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction or such option is replaced with a cash retention program of the successor corporation that preserves the spread existing
at the time of the Change in Control on the shares of Common Stock as to which the option is not otherwise exercisable and provides for the subsequent vesting and payment of that spread in accordance with the same Exercise Schedule applicable to
those shares. 
 (b)    Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control, this option shall terminate and
cease to be outstanding, except to the extent this option is assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) in connection with the Change in Control or is otherwise continued in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in
Control transaction. 
 (c)    If this option is assumed in connection with a Change in Control or is otherwise
continued in full force and effect, then this option shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities which would have been issuable to Optionee in consummation of such Change
in Control had the option been exercised immediately prior to such Change in Control, and appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the Exercise Price, provided the 

  
 2 








 
aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same. To the extent the actual holders of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in
consummation of the Change in Control transaction, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or continuation of this option and subject to the Plan Administrator’s approval, substitute one or more shares of its own common
stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such Change in Control transaction, provided such common stock is readily traded on an established U.S. securities exchange or market. 

(d)    This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or
otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. 

7.    Adjustment in Option Shares. Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock
split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares, spin-off transaction or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt
of consideration or should the value of outstanding shares of Common stock be substantially reduced as a result of a spin-off transaction or an extraordinary dividend or distribution or should there occur any
merger, consolidation or other reorganization (other than a Change in Control), then equitable adjustments shall be made to (i) the total number and/or class of securities subject to this option and (ii) the Exercise Price in such manner
as the Committee deems appropriate. 
 8.    Stockholder Rights. The holder of this option shall not have
any stockholder rights with respect to the Option Shares until such person shall have exercised the option, paid the Exercise Price and become a holder of record of the purchased shares. 

9.    Manner of Exercising Option. 

(a)    In order to exercise this option with respect to all or any part of the Option Shares for which this option is at
the time exercisable, Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) must take the following actions: 

(i)    Execute and deliver to the Corporation a Notice of Exercise for the Option Shares for which the option is
exercised or comply with such other procedures as the Corporation may establish for notifying the Corporation of the exercise of this option for one or more Option Shares. 

(ii)    Pay the aggregate Exercise Price for the purchased shares in one or more of the following forms: 

(A)    cash or check made payable to the Corporation; 

(B)    shares of Common Stock (whether delivered in the form of actual stock certificates or through attestation of
ownership) held for the requisite period (if any) necessary to avoid any resulting charge to the Corporation’s earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date; 

(C)    through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which Optionee (or any other person or persons
exercising the option) shall concurrently provide irrevocable instructions (i) to a brokerage firm (reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation for purposes of administering such procedure in accordance with the Corporation’s pre-clearance/pre-notification policies) to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the
settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchased shares 

  
 3 








 
plus all applicable income and employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (ii) to the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the
purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm on such settlement date in order to complete the sale; and 

(D)    If this option is a Non-Statutory Option, subject to the consent of the
Corporation at the Exercise Date, by a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to which the Corporation will reduce the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the option by the largest whole number of shares with a Fair
Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price. Optionee must pay any remaining balance of the aggregate exercise price not satisfied by the “net exercise” in cash or other permitted form of payment. Shares of Common Stock
will no longer be outstanding under the option and will not be exercisable thereafter if those shares (i) are used to pay the exercise price pursuant to the “net exercise,” (ii) are delivered to Optionee as a result of such exercise,
and (iii) are withheld to satisfy Optionee’s tax withholding obligations. 
 Except to the extent the sale and remittance
procedure is utilized in connection with the option exercise, payment of the Exercise Price must accompany the Notice of Exercise (or other notification procedure) delivered to the Corporation in connection with the option exercise. 

(iii)    Furnish to the Corporation appropriate documentation that the person or persons exercising the option (if other
than Optionee) have the right to exercise this option. 
 (iv)    Make appropriate arrangements with the Corporation
(or Parent or Subsidiary employing Optionee) for the satisfaction of all applicable income and employment tax withholding requirements applicable to the option exercise. 

(b)    As soon as practical after the Exercise Date, the Corporation shall issue to or on behalf of Optionee (or any other
person or persons exercising this option) a certificate for the purchased Option Shares, with the appropriate legends affixed thereto. 

(c)    In no event may this option be exercised for any fractional shares. 

10.    Compliance with Laws and Regulations. 

(a)    The exercise of this option and the issuance of the Option Shares upon such exercise shall be subject to compliance
by the Corporation and Optionee with all applicable requirements of law relating thereto and with all applicable regulations of any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq National Market, if applicable) on which the Common Stock may be listed for trading at
the time of such exercise and issuance. 
 (b)    The inability of the Corporation to obtain approval from any
regulatory body having authority deemed by the Corporation to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Common Stock pursuant to this option shall relieve the Corporation of any liability with respect to the
non-issuance or sale of the Common Stock as to which such approval shall not have been obtained. The Corporation, however, shall use its best efforts to obtain all such approvals. 

11.    Successors and Assigns. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Paragraph 3, the provisions of
this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Corporation and its successors and assigns and Optionee, Optionee’s assigns, the legal representatives, heirs and legatees of Optionee’s estate. 

  
 4 








 12.    Notices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to
the Corporation under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Corporation at its principal corporate offices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to Optionee shall be in writing and addressed to Optionee at the
address indicated below Optionee’s signature line on the Grant Notice. All notices shall be deemed effective upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid and properly addressed to the party to be notified. 

13.    Construction. This Agreement and the option evidenced hereby are made and granted pursuant to the
Plan and are in all respects limited by and subject to the terms of the Plan. All decisions of the Committee with respect to any question or issue arising under the Plan or this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on all persons having an
interest in this option. 
 14.    Governing Law. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this
Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without resort to that State’s conflict-of-laws rules. 

15.    Excess Shares. If the Option Shares covered by this Agreement exceed, as of the Grant Date, the
number of shares of Common Stock which may without stockholder approval be issued under the Plan, then this option shall be void with respect to those excess shares, unless stockholder approval of an amendment sufficiently increasing the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan is obtained in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. In no event shall the Option be exercisable with respect to any of the excess Option Shares unless and until such stockholder approval is
obtained. 
 16.    Additional Terms Applicable to an Incentive Option. In the event this option is
designated an Incentive Option in the Grant Notice, the following terms and conditions shall also apply to the grant: 

(a)    This option shall cease to qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Incentive Option if (and to the extent) this
option is exercised for one or more Option Shares: (A) more than three (3) months after the date Optionee ceases to be an employee for any reason other than death or Permanent Disability or (B) more than twelve (12) months after
the date Optionee ceases to be an employee by reason of Permanent Disability. 
 (b)    No installment under this option
shall qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Incentive Option if (and to the extent) the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the Grant Date) of the Common Stock for which such installment first becomes exercisable hereunder would, when
added to the aggregate value (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) of the Common Stock or other securities for which this option or any other Incentive Options granted to Optionee prior to the Grant Date (whether under the Plan or
any other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) first become exercisable during the same calendar year, exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in the aggregate. Should such One Hundred Thousand Dollar ($100,000)
limitation be exceeded in any calendar year, this option shall nevertheless become exercisable for the excess shares in such calendar year as a Non-Statutory Option. 

(c)    Should Optionee hold, in addition to this option, one or more other options to purchase Common Stock which become
exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year as this option, then for purposes of the foregoing limitations on the exercisability of such options as Incentive Options, this option and each of those other options shall be deemed to become
first exercisable in that calendar year, on the basis of the chronological order in which such options were granted, except to the extent otherwise provided under applicable law or regulation. 

  
 5 








 17.    Withholding Obligations. 

(a)    At the time Optionee exercises this option, in whole or in part, and at any time thereafter as requested by the
Corporation, Optionee hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to Optionee, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for (including by means of a “same day sale” pursuant to a program developed under
Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Corporation), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Corporation or an Affiliate, if any, which
arise in connection with the exercise of the option. 
 (b)    If this option is a
Non-Statutory Option, then upon Optionee’s request and subject to approval by the Corporation, and compliance with any applicable legal conditions or restrictions, the Corporation may withhold from fully
vested shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to Optionee upon the exercise of this option a number of whole shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value, determined by the Corporation as of the Exercise Date, not in excess of the maximum
amount of tax required to be withheld by law (or such lower amount as may be necessary to avoid classification of the option as a liability for financial accounting purposes).    Shares of Common Stock shall be withheld solely
from fully vested shares of Common Stock determined as of the Exercise date that are otherwise issuable upon such exercise. Any adverse consequences to Optionee arising in connection with such share withholding procedure shall be Optionee’s
sole responsibility. 
 (c)    Optionee may not exercise this option unless the tax withholding obligations of the
Corporation and/or any Affiliate are satisfied. Accordingly, Optionee may not be able to exercise this option when desired even though the option is vested, and the Corporation will have no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares of Common
Stock or release such shares of Common Stock from any escrow provided for herein, if applicable, unless such obligations are satisfied. 

18.    Tax Consequences. Optionee agrees that the Corporation does not have a duty to design or administer
the Plan or its other compensation programs in a manner that minimizes Optionee’s tax liabilities. Optionee will not make any claim against the Corporation, or any of its Officers, Directors, Employees or Affiliates related to tax liabilities
arising from this option or other compensation. In particular, Optionee acknowledge that this option is exempt from Section 409A of the Code only if the exercise price per share specified in the Grant Notice is at least equal to the “fair
market value” per share of the Common Stock on the Grant Date and there is no other impermissible deferral of compensation associated with the option. 

19.    Effect on Other Employee Benefit Plans. The value of this option will not be included as
compensation, earnings, salaries, or other similar terms used when calculating Optionees benefits under any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Corporation or any Affiliate, except as such plan otherwise expressly provides. The Corporation
expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any of the Corporation’s or any Affiliate’s employee benefit plans or programs.
