 VIA HAND DELIVERY 

Re:     Amended Severance Agreement and Release 

Dear David: 
 This amended letter agreement (the
“Agreement”) summarizes the updated terms of your separation from employment with Infinity Pharmaceuticals, Inc. or its wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) in order to establish an amicable arrangement for
having ended your employment relationship, to release the Company from all legally waivable claims and to permit you to receive the negotiated benefits described below. 

If you would like to receive the benefit of the payment set out in Section 2, you must sign and return this Agreement to Jeanette Kohlbrenner, 784
Memorial Drive, Cambridge, MA 02139 within twenty-one (21) days from September 10, 2015, which is the date the original version of the Agreement was presented to you. As previously discussed, the signed document should be received by
Jeanette Kohlbrenner no later than close of business on October 5, 2015. By signing and returning this letter within this period, you will be entering into a binding agreement with the Company and will be agreeing to the terms and conditions
set forth in the numbered paragraphs below, including the release of legal claims set forth in Section 4. Therefore, you are advised to continue consulting with the attorney you have retained before signing this letter and you may take up to
twenty-one (21) days from the date of the original Agreement to do so. 
 After signing this Agreement, you may revoke it within a period of seven
(7) days following your signature. The Agreement will not become effective or enforceable, and no payments will be made hereunder, until this revocation period has expired. Notice of your revocation must be sent, prior to the expiration of the
seven (7) day revocation period, to Jeanette Kohlbrenner via mail or overnight mail at the address set forth above, or by e-mail to jeanette.kohlbrenner@infi.com. The date on which such revocation period expires is referred to as the
“Effective Date”. 
 On the other hand, if you choose not to sign and return this Agreement within the aforementioned twenty-one (21) day
period, this offer will expire and you will not receive the benefit of the severance payments set out in Section 2 below. Instead, your termination from employment with the Company will remain in effect and the only payments you will receive
will be for all earned salary and unused vacation time accrued through the Termination Date (as such term is defined in Section 1 below). Also, regardless of whether you sign this Agreement, you may elect to continue receiving group medical
insurance at your own cost pursuant to the federal “COBRA” law, 29 U.S.C. § 1161 et seq. You should consult the COBRA materials to be provided under separate cover for details regarding this benefit.

 All other benefits ceased upon your Termination Date with the exception of your life insurance, which will
terminate 31 days after your Termination Date. If, after reviewing this Agreement with your attorney, you find the terms and conditions are satisfactory to you, you should sign and return this letter to Jeanette Kohlbrenner within the timeframe
identified above. 
 With these understandings and in exchange for the promises of you and the Company as set forth below, you and the Company agree as
follows: 
 1. Employment Status and Final Payments: 

(a) Your termination of employment with the Company was effective as of September 11, 2015 (the “Termination Date”). As of the
Termination Date, your right to continue receiving salary payments ceased, and any entitlement you had or might have had under a Company-provided benefit plan, program, contract or practice terminated, except as required by federal or state law, or
as otherwise described below. 
 (b) You will receive payment for any unused vacation time accrued through the Termination Date. The parties
had a good faith disagreement as to whether you had a positive or negative vacation balance as of the Termination Date. As a result of our negotiations, the Company has agreed to pay you 25 hours of vacation time in the October 2, 2015 payroll
cycle. 
 (c) The Termination Date was the date of the “qualifying event” under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act
of 1985 (“COBRA”) and you confirm having received information on COBRA under separate cover. 
 2. Consideration: In exchange for,
and in consideration of, your full execution of this Agreement and the expiration of the revocation period without being exercised, the Company agrees as follows: 

(a) Severance Pay: 
 (i)
One Year of Severance Pay: The Company will pay you a lump-sum severance payment in the amount of $412,000.00, less applicable taxes, which is the equivalent of one year of your prior annual base salary. The severance payment will be made to
you in the first pay period that follows the expiration of the revocation period. This payment will be subject to the offset described below. 

(ii) Offset Against Severance Pay: As outlined in your August 15, 2013 offer of employment letter, you are obligated to repay the
prorated portion of the first two payments ($250,000 in February, 2014 and $250,000 in February, 2015) of your “transition bonus”. The prorated portion that is required to be repaid is $166,500 gross and will be deducted from the lump-sum
severance payment set out in Section 2 (a)(i). As a result of this offset, the net severance payment you will receive pursuant to Section 2(a)(i) will be in the amount of $245,500.00, less applicable taxes.

 (b) Health Insurance: if you elect to continue medical, vision and/or dental insurance
coverage after the Termination Date, in accordance with the provisions of COBRA, the Company will pay your monthly premium payments until the earlier of: (i) September 11, 2016; (ii) the date you obtain other employment; or
(iii) the date your COBRA continuation coverage would terminate in accordance with the provisions of COBRA. Thereafter, medical, vision and dental insurance coverage will be continued only to the extent required by COBRA and only to the extent
you timely pay the premium payments yourself. Please note that if the Company, in its sole discretion, subsequently determines that all or some of its payment of the COBRA premiums are discriminatory under Section 105(h) of the Internal Revenue
Code, any remaining COBRA payments shall instead be paid to you as additional severance pay over the same period that the subsidy would have been provided. 

(c) Taxes: The payments set forth in this Section 2 are subject to all applicable federal, state and/or local withholding and/or
payroll taxes. 
 (d) Stock Options. The portion of any outstanding equity awards which would have vested in the one year period
following the Termination Date (i.e., through September 11, 2016) shall immediately vest as of the Effective Date of this Agreement. 
 3. Stock
Options Other Than Those Addressed In Section 2(d) – As set forth in the Infinity Pharmaceuticals 2000 and 2010 Stock Incentive Plan, the Infinity Pharmaceuticals Pre-Merger Stock Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Plans”)
and your Stock Option Agreements with the Company (collectively, the “Stock Option Agreements”), excluding the consideration listed in Section 2(d), your options to purchase stock in the Company will cease vesting on the Termination
Date. Your other rights and obligations with respect to your stock options, including without limitation exercise and expiration provisions, are governed by terms and conditions of the Plans and Stock Option Agreements. 

4. Release: This section of the Agreement is a release of legal claims. Please carefully review this section with your attorney and do not sign this
document unless you understand what this section says.  
 (a) In exchange for the amounts described in Section 2, and the other
benefits set out above, which are benefits of value you are not otherwise entitled to receive, you and your representatives, agents, estate, heirs, successors and assigns, absolutely and unconditionally release, remiss, discharge, indemnify and hold
harmless the Company Releasees (as defined below), from and against any and all legally waivable claims that you have against the Company Releasees. Other than as permitted in Section 4(d) below, this means that by signing this Agreement, you
are agreeing not to bring a legal action against the Company Releasees for any type of claim arising from conduct that occurred any time in the past and up to and through the Effective Date. “Company Releasees” means the Company and any of
its parents, subsidiaries or affiliates, their respective predecessors, successors or assigns, as well as their respective current and/or former directors, stockholders, officers, employees, attorneys and/or agents, all both individually and in
their official capacities. 
 (b) This release includes, but is not limited to, any waivable claims you have against the Company Releasees
based on conduct that occurred any time in the past and up to and through the Effective Date that arise from any federal, state or local law, regulation or constitution dealing with

either employment, employment benefits or employment discrimination. By way of example, this release includes any claims you have under the laws or regulations concerning discrimination on the
basis of race, color, creed, religion, age, sex, sex harassment, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, ancestry, genetic carrier status, handicap or disability, veteran status, any military service or application for military
service, or any other category protected under federal, state or local law. This release also includes any claim you may have against the Company Releasees for breach of contract, whether oral or written, express or implied; any tort claims (such as
wrongful discharge, tortious interference with contractual or advantageous relations, misrepresentation and/or defamation); any claims for equity or employee benefits of any other kind; and any other legally waivable statutory and/or common law
claims. 
 (c) For the avoidance of doubt, by signing this Agreement you are agreeing not to bring any waivable claims against the Company
Releasees (other than as permitted in Section 4(d) below) under the following nonexclusive list of discrimination and employment statutes: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the ADA Amendments Act,
the Equal Pay Act, the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (“WARN”), the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Genetic Information
Nondiscrimination Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, Executive Order 11246, Executive Order 11141, Section 806 of the Corporate and Criminal Fraud Accountability Act of 2002, the Massachusetts Fair Employment Practices Law
(M.G.L. ch. 151B), the Massachusetts Equal Rights Act, the Massachusetts Equal Pay Act, the Massachusetts Privacy Statute, the Massachusetts Maternity Leave Act, the Massachusetts Small Necessities Leave Act, the Massachusetts Labor and Industries
Act, the Massachusetts Civil Rights Act, the Massachusetts Sick Leave Law, and all other federal, state and local laws, as each of the foregoing have been or may be amended. 

(d) This release does not include any claim under the workers compensation or unemployment compensation statutes or any other claim, which, as
a matter of law, cannot be released by private agreement. Also, this Agreement is not intended to affect the rights and responsibilities of government agencies such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”), the National
Labor Relations Board (the “NLRB”), or any other federal, state or local agency, to enforce the laws within their jurisdiction. This means that by signing this Agreement you may still exercise your protected right to (i) file a charge
with, or participate in an investigation or proceeding conducted by, the EEOC, the NLRB, or any other federal, state or local government entity and (ii) exercise your rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act to engage in
joint activity with other employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that (x) if you file a charge with the EEOC, the NLRB, or any other federal, state or local government entity or (y) if one of the foregoing agencies commences
an investigation or other legal action on your behalf, you specifically waive and release your right to recover, if any, individual monetary damages or other individual benefits or remedies of any sort whatsoever arising from the charge you filed or
from the governmental action. 
 (e) You release the Company Releasees from any and all wage and hour related claims to the maximum extent
permitted by federal and state law. This release of legal claims includes any wage and hour related claims under any federal or state law for unpaid or delayed payment of wages, overtime, bonuses, commissions, incentive payments or severance, missed
or interrupted meal periods, interest, attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses, liquidated damages, treble damages or damages of any kind to the maximum extent permitted by law.
