 Exhibit 10.1 

ATEA PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 

1. Purpose. 
 The
purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Company’s stockholders by enhancing the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make (or are expected to make) important contributions to the Company by providing
such persons with equity ownership opportunities and thereby better aligning the interests of such persons with those of the Company’s stockholders. Capitalized terms used in the Plan are defined in Section 11 below. 

2. Eligibility.  

Service Providers are eligible to be granted Awards under the Plan, subject to the limitations described herein. 

3. Administration and Delegation. 

(a) Administration. The Plan will be administered by the Administrator. The Administrator shall have authority to determine which
Service Providers will receive Awards, to grant Awards and to set all terms and conditions of Awards (including, but not limited to, vesting, exercise and forfeiture provisions). In addition, the Administrator shall have the authority to take all
actions and make all determinations contemplated by the Plan and to adopt, amend and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to the Plan as it shall deem advisable. The Administrator may correct any defect or ambiguity,
supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or appropriate to carry the Plan and any Awards into effect, as determined by the Administrator. The Administrator
shall make all determinations under the Plan in the Administrator’s sole discretion and all such determinations shall be final and binding on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or in any Award. 

(b) Appointment of Committees. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, the Board may delegate any or all of its powers under the
Plan to one or more Committees. The Board may abolish any Committee at any time and re-vest in itself any previously delegated authority. 

4. Stock Available for Awards. 

(a) Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment under Section 8 hereof, Awards may be made under the Plan covering up to 10,979,971
shares of Common Stock. If any Award expires or lapses or is terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised or is forfeited in whole or in part (including as the result of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award being
repurchased by the Company at or below the original issuance price), in any case in a manner that results in any shares of Common Stock covered by such Award not being issued or being so reacquired by the Company, the unused Common Stock covered by
such Award shall again be available for the grant of Awards under the Plan. Further, shares of Common Stock delivered (either by actual delivery or attestation) to the Company by a Participant to satisfy the applicable exercise or purchase price of
an Award and/or to satisfy any applicable tax withholding obligation (including shares retained by the Company from the Award being exercised or purchased and/or creating the tax obligation) shall be added to the number of shares of Common Stock
available for the grant of Awards under the Plan. However, in the case of Incentive Stock Options (as hereinafter defined), the foregoing provisions shall be subject to any limitations under the Code. Shares of Common Stock issued under the Plan may
consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares, shares purchased on the open market or treasury shares. 












 (b) Substitute Awards. In connection with a merger or consolidation of an entity with
the Company or the acquisition by the Company of property or stock of an entity, the Administrator may grant Awards in substitution for any options or other stock or stock-based awards granted prior to such merger or consolidation by such entity or
an affiliate thereof. Substitute Awards may be granted on such terms as the Administrator deems appropriate in the circumstances, notwithstanding any limitations on Awards contained in the Plan. Substitute Awards shall not count against the overall
share limit set forth in Section 4(a) hereof, except as may be required by reason of Section 422 of the Code. 
 5. Stock
Options. 
 (a) General. The Administrator may grant Options to any Service Provider, subject to the limitations on Incentive
Stock Options described below. The Administrator shall determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Option, the exercise price of each Option and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option,
including conditions relating to Applicable Laws, as it considers necessary or advisable. 
 (b) Incentive Stock Options. The
Administrator may grant Options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options only to employees of the Company, any of the Company’s present or future “parent corporations” or “subsidiary corporations” as defined in
Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, respectively, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code. All Options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options shall be subject to and
shall be construed consistently with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. Neither the Company nor the Administrator shall have any liability to a Participant, or any other party, (i) if an Option (or any part thereof) which is
intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option fails to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option or (ii) for any action or omission by the Administrator that causes an Option not to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, including without
limitation, the conversion of an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option or the grant of an Option intended as an Incentive Stock Option that fails to satisfy the requirements under the Code
applicable to an Incentive Stock Option. Any Option that is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, but fails to so qualify for any reason, including without limitation, the portion of any Option becoming exercisable in excess of the
$100,000 limitation described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.422-4, shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option for all purposes. 

(c) Exercise Price. The Administrator shall establish the exercise price of each Option and specify the exercise price in the applicable
Award Agreement. The exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date the Option is granted. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who, at the time of grant of the Option, owns (or is treated
as owning under Section 424 of the Code) stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (or a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” thereof within the meaning of
Sections 424(e) or 424(f) of the Code, respectively), the per share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the date the Option is granted. 

(d) Duration of Options. Each Option shall be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator
may specify in the applicable Award Agreement, provided that the term of any Option shall not exceed ten years. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who, at the time of grant of the Option, owns (or is treated as owning
under Section 424 of the Code) stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (or a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” thereof within the meaning of Sections 424(e)
or 424(f) of the Code, respectively), the term of the Option shall not exceed five years. 

  
 2 













 (e) Exercise of Option; Notification of Disposition. Options may be exercised by
delivery to the Company of a written notice of exercise, in a form approved by the Administrator (which may be an electronic form), signed by the person authorized to exercise the Option, together with payment in full (i) as specified in
Section 5(f) hereof for the number of shares for which the Option is exercised and (ii) as specified in Section 9(e) hereof for any applicable withholding taxes. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, an Option may not be
exercised for a fraction of a share of Common Stock. If an Option is designated as an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant shall give prompt notice to the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any shares of Common Stock acquired from
the Option if such disposition or transfer is made (i) within two years from the grant date with respect to such Option or (ii) within one year after the transfer of such shares to the Participant (other than any such disposition made in
connection with a Change in Control). Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, by the Participant in such
disposition or other transfer. 
 (f) Payment Upon Exercise. Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of an Option granted under the
Plan shall be paid for in cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company, or, to the extent permitted by the Administrator, by: 

(i) (A) delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver promptly
to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding, or (B) delivery by the Participant to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a broker acceptable to the Company to
deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check sufficient to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding; 

(ii) delivery (either by actual delivery or attestation) of shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant valued at their
Fair Market Value, provided (A) such method of payment is then permitted under Applicable Laws, (B) such Common Stock, if acquired directly from the Company, was owned by the Participant for such minimum period of time, if any, as may be
established by the Company at any time, and (C) such Common Stock is not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements; 

(iii) surrendering shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of the Option valued at their Fair Market Value on the
date of exercise; 
 (iv) delivery of a promissory note of the Participant to the Company on terms determined by the
Administrator; 
 (v) delivery of property of any other kind which constitutes good and valuable consideration as determined
by the Administrator; or 
 (vi) any combination of the above permitted forms of payment (including cash or check). 

(g) Early Exercise of Options. The Administrator may provide in the terms of an Award Agreement that the Service Provider may exercise
an Option in whole or in part prior to the full vesting of the Option in exchange for unvested shares of Restricted Stock with respect to any unvested portion of the Option so exercised. Shares of Restricted Stock acquired upon the exercise of any
unvested portion of an Option shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine.

 6. Restricted Stock; Restricted Stock Units. 

(a) General. The Administrator may grant Restricted Stock, or the right to purchase Restricted Stock, to any Service Provider,
subject to the right of the Company to repurchase all or part of such shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price from the Participant (or to require forfeiture of such shares if issued at no cost) in the event that conditions
specified by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable restriction period or periods established by the Administrator for such Award. In addition, the Administrator may grant to
Service Providers Restricted Stock Units, which may be subject to vesting and forfeiture conditions during applicable restriction period or periods, as set forth in an applicable Award Agreement. 

(b) Terms and Conditions for All Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Awards. The Administrator shall determine and set forth
in the applicable Award Agreement the terms and conditions applicable to each Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Award, including the conditions for vesting and repurchase (or forfeiture) and the issue price, in each case, if any.

(c) Additional Provisions Relating to Restricted Stock.

(i) Dividends. Participants holding shares of Restricted Stock will be entitled to all ordinary cash dividends paid
with respect to such shares, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement. In addition, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if any dividends or distributions are paid in shares, or consist of a
dividend or distribution to holders of Common Stock of property other than an ordinary cash dividend, the shares or other property will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the shares of Restricted Stock with
respect to which they were paid. Each dividend payment will be made as provided in the applicable Award Agreement, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year in which the dividends are paid to stockholders of that class of stock or, if
later, the 15th day of the third month following the later of (A) the date the dividends are paid to stockholders of that class of stock, and (B) the date the dividends are no longer subject to forfeiture.

(ii) Stock Certificates. The Company may require that any stock certificates issued in respect of shares of
Restricted Stock be deposited in escrow by the Participant, together with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company (or its designee).

(d) Additional Provisions Relating to Restricted Stock Units. 

(i) Settlement. Upon the vesting of a Restricted Stock Unit, the Participant shall be entitled to receive from the
Company one share of Common Stock or an amount of cash or other property equal to the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the settlement date, as the Administrator shall determine and as provided in the applicable Award
Agreement. The Administrator may provide that settlement of Restricted Stock Units shall occur upon or as soon as reasonably practicable after the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or shall instead be deferred, on a mandatory basis or at
the election of the Participant, in a manner that complies with Section 409A.
 (ii) Voting Rights. A
Participant shall have no voting rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Units unless and until shares are delivered in settlement thereof.

  
 4 













 (iii) Dividend Equivalents. To the extent provided by the
Administrator, a grant of Restricted Stock Units may provide a Participant with the right to receive Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the Participant, may be settled in cash and/or
shares of Common Stock and may be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which the Dividend Equivalents are paid, as determined by the Administrator, subject, in each case, to
such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 
 7.
Other Stock-Based Awards.  
 Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted hereunder to
Participants, including, without limitation, Awards entitling Participants to receive shares of Common Stock to be delivered in the future. Such Other Stock-Based Awards shall also be available as a form of payment in the settlement of other Awards
granted under the Plan, as stand-alone payments and/or as payment in lieu of compensation to which a Participant is otherwise entitled. Other Stock-Based Awards may be paid in shares of Common Stock, cash or other property, as the Administrator
shall determine. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall determine the terms and conditions of each Other Stock-Based Award, including any purchase price, transfer restrictions, vesting conditions and other terms and
conditions applicable thereto, which shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 
 8. Adjustments for Changes in Common
Stock and Certain Other Events. 
 (a) In the event that the Administrator determines that any dividend or other distribution
(whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities, or other property), reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, repurchase, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company, or sale or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate
transaction or event, as determined by the Administrator, affects the Common Stock such that an adjustment is determined by the Administrator to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits
intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award, then the Administrator may, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of: 

(i) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) with respect to which Awards may be granted
or awarded (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section 4 hereof on the maximum number and kind of shares which may be issued); 

(ii) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards; 

(iii) the grant or exercise price with respect to any Award; and 

(iv) the terms and conditions of any Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable financial or other performance
“targets” specified in an Award Agreement). 
 (b) In the event of any transaction or event described in Section 8(a) hereof
(including without limitation any Change in Control) or any unusual or nonrecurring transaction or event affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company, or any change in any Applicable Laws or accounting principles, the
Administrator, on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Participant’s request, is hereby
authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to (x) prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to
be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award granted or issued under the Plan, (y) to facilitate such transaction or event or (z) give effect to such changes in Applicable Laws or accounting principles:  

  
 5 













 (i) To provide for the cancellation of any such Award in exchange for either
an amount of cash or other property with a value equal to the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise or settlement of the vested portion of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights under the vested portion of such
Award, as applicable; provided that, if the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise or settlement of the vested portion of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, in any case, is equal to or less than zero, then
the vested portion of such Award may be terminated without payment; 
 (ii) To provide that such Award shall vest and, to the
extent applicable, be exercisable as to all shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the provisions of such Award; 

(iii) To provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or
shall be substituted for by awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and applicable exercise or purchase price, in all
cases, as determined by the Administrator; 
 (iv) To make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or
other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards, and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Awards which may be granted in the future; 

(v) To replace such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; and/or 

(vi) To provide that the Award will terminate and cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after the applicable event. 

(c) In connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8, the
Administrator will equitably adjust each outstanding Award, which adjustments may include adjustments to the number and type of securities subject to each outstanding Award and/or the exercise price or grant price thereof, if applicable, the grant
of new Awards to Participants, and/or the making of a cash payment to Participants, as the Administrator deems appropriate to reflect such Equity Restructuring. The adjustments provided under this Section 8(c) shall be nondiscretionary and
shall be final and binding on the affected Participant and the Company; provided that whether an adjustment is equitable shall be determined by the Administrator. 

(d) In the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution
(other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the shares of Stock or the share price of the Stock, including any Equity Restructuring, for reasons of administrative convenience the Administrator
may refuse to permit the exercise of any Award during a period of up to thirty days prior to the consummation of any such transaction. 

  
 6 













 (e) Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Administrator
under the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any
dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Administrator under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any
class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares of Stock subject to an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award. The
existence of the Plan, any Award Agreements and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company to make or authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in
the Company’s capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger, consolidation dissolution or liquidation of the Company or sale of Company assets or (iii) any sale or issuance of securities, including without limitation, securities
with rights superior to those of the Common Stock or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock. The Administrator may treat Participants and Awards (or portions thereof) differently under this Section 8. 

9. General Provisions Applicable to Awards.  

(a) Transferability. Except as the Administrator may otherwise determine or provide in an Award Agreement or otherwise, in any case in
accordance with Applicable Laws, Awards shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the person to whom they are granted, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, and, during the life of the Participant, shall be exercisable only by the Participant. References to a Participant, to the extent relevant in the context, shall include references to authorized transferees. 

(b) Documentation. Each Award shall be evidenced in an Award Agreement, which may be in such form (written, electronic or otherwise) as
the Administrator shall determine. Each Award may contain terms and conditions in addition to those set forth in the Plan. 
 (c)
Discretion. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, each Award may be made alone or in addition or in relation to any other Award. The terms of each Award to a Participant need not be identical, and the Administrator need not treat
Participants or Awards (or portions thereof) uniformly. 
 (d) Termination of Status. The Administrator shall determine the effect on
an Award of the disability, death, retirement, authorized leave of absence or any other change or purported change in a Participant’s Service Provider status and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant, the
Participant’s legal representative, conservator, guardian or Designated Beneficiary may exercise rights under the Award, if applicable. 

(e) Withholding. Each Participant shall pay to the Company, or make provision satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of, any
taxes required by law to be withheld in connection with Awards to such Participant no later than the date of the event creating the tax liability. Except as the Administrator may otherwise determine, all such payments shall be made in cash or by
certified check. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by the Administrator, Participants may satisfy such tax obligations in whole or in part by delivery of shares of Common Stock, including shares retained from the Award creating
the tax obligation, valued at their Fair Market Value. The Company may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, deduct any such tax obligations from any payment of any kind otherwise due to a Participant. 

(f) Amendment of Award. The Administrator may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award, including but not limited to,
substituting therefor another Award of the same or a different type, changing the date of exercise or settlement, and converting an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option. The
Participant’s consent to such action shall be required unless (i) the Administrator determines that the action, taking into account any related action, would not materially and adversely affect the Participant, or (ii) the change is
permitted under Section 8 and 10(f) hereof. 

  
 7 













 (g) Conditions on Delivery of Stock. The Company will not be obligated to deliver any
shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan or to remove restrictions from shares previously delivered under the Plan until (i) all conditions of the Award have been met or removed to the satisfaction of the Company, (ii) in the opinion of
the Company’s counsel, all other legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of such shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws and any applicable stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations,
and (iii) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy the requirements of any Applicable Laws. The inability of the Company to
obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is determined by the Administrator to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any securities hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of
the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. 
 (h) Acceleration. The
Administrator may at any time provide that any Award shall become immediately vested and/or exercisable in full or in part, free of some or all restrictions or conditions, or otherwise realizable in full or in part, as the case may be. 

10. Miscellaneous.  

(a) No Right To Employment or Other Status. No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and the grant of an Award
shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship with the Company. The Company expressly reserves the right at any time to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with a Participant
free from any liability or claim under the Plan or any Award, except as expressly provided in an applicable Award Agreement. 
 (b) No
Rights As Stockholder; Certificates. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award Agreement, no Participant or Designated Beneficiary shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock to be distributed with
respect to an Award until becoming the record holder of such shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or required by any Applicable Laws, the Company shall not be required to deliver
to any Participant certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock issued in connection with any Award and instead such shares of Common Stock may be recorded in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan
administrator). The Company may place legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator in order to comply with Applicable Laws. 

(c) Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective on the date on which it is adopted by the Board. No Awards shall be
granted under the Plan after the completion of ten years from the earlier of (i) the date on which the Plan was adopted by the Board or (ii) the date the Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders, but Awards previously granted
may extend beyond that date in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 
 (d) Amendment of Plan. The Administrator may amend, suspend
or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that no amendment of the Plan shall materially and adversely affect any Award outstanding at the time of such amendment without the consent of the affected Participant. Awards
outstanding under the Plan at the time of any suspension or termination of the Plan shall continue to be governed in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, as in effect prior to such suspension or termination. The
Board shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws. 

  
 8 













 (e) Provisions for Foreign Participants. The Administrator may modify Awards
granted to Participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States or establish subplans or procedures under the Plan to address differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions with respect to
tax, securities, currency, employee benefit or other matters. 
 (f) Section 409A.

(i) General. The Company intends that all Awards be structured in compliance with, or to satisfy an exemption from,
Section 409A, such that no adverse tax consequences, interest, or penalties under Section 409A apply in connection with any Awards. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any Award Agreement to the contrary, the Administrator may, without a
Participant’s prior consent, amend this Plan and/or Awards, adopt policies and procedures, or take any other actions (including amendments, policies, procedures and actions with retroactive effect) as are necessary or appropriate to preserve
the intended tax treatment of Awards under the Plan, including without limitation, any such actions intended to (A) exempt this Plan and/or any Award from the application of Section 409A, and/or (B) comply with the requirements of
Section 409A, including without limitation any such regulations, guidance, compliance programs and other interpretative authority that may be issued after the date of grant of any Award. The Company makes no representations or warranties as to
the tax treatment of any Award under Section 409A or otherwise. The Company shall have no obligation under this Section 10(f) or otherwise to take any action (whether or not described herein) to avoid the imposition of taxes, penalties or
interest under Section 409A with respect to any Award and shall have no liability to any Participant or any other person if any Award, compensation or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute
non-compliant, “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to the imposition of taxes, penalties and/or interest under Section 409A. 

(ii) Separation from Service. With respect to any Award that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation”
under Section 409A, any payment or settlement of such Award that is to be made upon a termination of a Participant’s Service Provider relationship shall, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A, be
made only upon the Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A), whether such “separation from service” occurs upon or subsequent to the termination of the Participant’s Service
Provider relationship. For purposes of any such provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement relating to any such payments or benefits, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean
“separation from service.” 
 (iii) Payments to Specified Employees. Notwithstanding any contrary provision
in the Plan or any Award Agreement, any payment(s) of “nonqualified deferred compensation” that are otherwise required to be made under an Award to a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A and determined by the
Administrator) as a result of his or her “separation from service” shall, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), be delayed until the expiration of the six-month period immediately following such “separation from service” (or, if earlier, until the date of death of the specified employee) and shall instead be paid (in a manner set forth in the Award
agreement) on the day that immediately follows the end of such six-month period or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter (without interest). Any payments of “nonqualified deferred
compensation” under such Award that are, by their terms, payable more than six months following the Participant’s “separation from service” shall be paid at the time or times such payments are otherwise scheduled to be made.

 (g) Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan,
no individual acting as a director, officer, other employee or agent of the Company will be liable to any Participant, former Participant, spouse, beneficiary, or any other person for any claim, loss, liability, or expense incurred in connection
with the Plan or any Award, nor will such individual be personally liable with respect to the Plan because of any contract or other instrument he or she executes in his or her capacity as an Administrator, director, officer, other employee or agent
of the Company. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each director, officer, other employee and agent of the Company to whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan has been or will be granted or
delegated, against any cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the Administrator’s approval) arising out of any act or omission to act concerning this Plan unless
arising out of such person’s own fraud or bad faith.
 (h) Lock-Up Period. The Company
may, at the request of any representative of the underwriters or otherwise, in connection with any registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, prohibit Participants from, directly or indirectly, selling or
otherwise transferring any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company during a period of up to one hundred eighty days following the date of the final prospectus relating to the offeing. 

(i) Right of First Refusal. 

(i) Before any shares of Common Stock held by a Participant or any permitted transferee (each, a
“Holder”) may be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or otherwise disposed of (each, a “Transfer”), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the
shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 10(i) (the “Right of First Refusal”). In the event that the Company’s charter, bylaws and/or a
stockholders’ agreement applicable to the shares of Common Stock contain a right of first refusal with respect to the shares of Common Stock, such right of first refusal shall apply to the shares of Common Stock to the extent such provisions
are more restrictive than the Right of First Refusal set forth in this Section 10(i) and the Right of First Refusal set forth in this Section 10(i) shall not in any way restrict the operation of the Company’s charter, bylaws or the
operation of any applicable stockholders’ agreement. 
 (ii) In the event any Holder desires to Transfer any shares of
Common Stock, the Holder shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (A) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise Transfer such shares of Common Stock; (B) the name of
each proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (C) the number of shares of Common Stock to be Transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (D) the price for which the Holder proposes to
Transfer the shares of Common Stock (the “Offered Price”), and the Holder shall offer such shares of Common Stock at the Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s). 

(iii) Within thirty days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may elect in writing to purchase all
or any portion of the shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees by delivery of a written exercise notice to the Holder (a “Company Notice”). The purchase price
(“Purchase Price”) for the shares of Common Stock repurchased under this Section 10(i) shall be the Offered Price. 

(iv) Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check or wire
transfer), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof, within ten days after delivery of the Company
Notice or in the manner and at the times mutually agreed to by the Company and the Holder. Should the Offered Price specified in the Notice be payable in property other than cash, the Company or its assignee shall have the right to pay the purchase
price in the form of cash equal in amount to the value of such property, as determined by the Administrator. 

  
 10 













 (v) If all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock proposed in the Notice
to be Transferred are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 10(i), then the Holder may sell or otherwise Transfer such shares of Common Stock to that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a
higher price; provided that such sale or other Transfer is consummated within sixty days after the date of the Notice; and provided, further, that any such sale or other Transfer is effected in accordance with any Applicable Laws and the Proposed
Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement and any other applicable agreements governing the shares of Common Stock to be Transferred shall continue to apply to the shares of Common Stock in the
hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the shares of Common Stock described in the Notice are not Transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such sixty-day period, a new Notice shall be given to the Company,
and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal, as provided herein, before any shares of Common Stock held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise Transferred. 

(vi) Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10(i) notwithstanding and to the extent permitted by the
Administrator, the Transfer of any or all of the shares of Common Stock during a Participant’s lifetime or upon a Participant’s death by will or intestacy to the Participant’s Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of the
Participant’s Immediate Family shall be exempt from the Right of First Refusal. As used herein, “Immediate Family” shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister or stepchild
(whether or not adopted). In such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the shares of Common Stock so Transferred subject to the provisions of this Plan (including the Right of First Refusal), the applicable Award Agreement
and any other applicable agreements governing the shares of Common Stock to be Transferred, and there shall be no further Transfer of such shares of Common Stock except in accordance with the terms of this Section 10(i) (or otherwise as
expressly provided under the Plan). 
 (vii) The Right of First Refusal shall terminate as to all shares of Common Stock if
the Company becomes a Publicly Listed Company upon such occurrence. 
 (j) Data Privacy. As a condition of receipt of any Award, each
Participant explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this paragraph by and among, as applicable, the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates for the
exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan. The Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates may hold certain personal information about a Participant, including but not limited to,
the Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title(s), any shares of stock held in the Company or any of its subsidiaries
and affiliates, details of all Awards, in each case, for the purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan and Awards (the “Data”). The Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates may transfer the Data amongst
themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of a Participant’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates may each further transfer the Data to any third parties
assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the Participant’s country, or elsewhere, and the Participant’s country may have different data privacy laws and
protections than the recipients’ country. Through acceptance of an Award, each Participant authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form,


  
 11 













 
for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or
other third party with whom the Company or the Participant may elect to deposit any shares of Common Stock. The Data related to a Participant will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Participant’s
participation in the Plan. A Participant may, at any time, view the Data held by the Company with respect to such Participant, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data with respect to such Participant, recommend
any necessary corrections to the Data with respect to the Participant or refuse or withdraw the consents herein in writing, in any case without cost, by contacting his or her local human resources representative. The Company may cancel
Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan and, in the Administrator’s discretion, the Participant may forfeit any outstanding Awards if the Participant refuses or withdraws his or her consents as described herein. For more
information on the consequences of refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participants may contact their local human resources representative. 

(k) Severability. In the event any portion of the Plan or any action taken pursuant thereto shall be held illegal or invalid for
any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provisions had not been included, and the illegal or invalid action shall be null
and void. 
 (l) Governing Documents. In the event of any contradiction between the Plan and any Award Agreement or any other
written agreement between a Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company that has been approved by the Administrator, the terms of the Plan shall govern, unless it is expressly specified in such Award Agreement or other written
document that a specific provision of the Plan shall not apply. 
 (m) Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. By
accepting an Award, each Participant irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and of the United States of America, in each case located in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, for any action arising out of or relating to the Plan (and agrees not to commence any litigation relating thereto except in such courts), and further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered
mail to the address contained in the records of the Company shall be effective service of process for any litigation brought against it in any such court. By accepting an Award, each Participant irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection
to the laying of venue of any litigation arising out of Plan or Award hereunder in the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or the United States of America, in each case located in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and further irrevocably
and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such litigation brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. By accepting an Award, each Participant irrevocably and unconditionally
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all rights to trial by jury in connection with any litigation arising out of or relating to the Plan or any Award hereunder. 

(n) Governing Law. The provisions of the Plan and all Awards made hereunder shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware, disregarding choice-of-law principles of the law of any state that would require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other
than such state. 
 (o) Restrictions on Shares; Claw-back Provisions. Shares of Common Stock acquired in respect of Awards
shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, including, without limitation, restrictions on the transferability of shares of Common Stock, the right of the Company to repurchase shares of Common Stock, the
right of the Company to require that shares of Common Stock be transferred in the event of certain transactions, tag-along rights, bring-along rights, redemption and
co-sale rights and voting requirements. Such terms and conditions may be 

  
 12 













 
additional to those contained in the Plan and may, as determined by the Administrator, be contained in the applicable Award Agreement or in an exercise notice, stockholders’ agreement or in
such other agreement as the Administrator shall determine, in each case in a form determined by the Administrator. The issuance of such shares of Common Stock shall be conditioned on the Participant’s consent to such terms and conditions and
the Participant’s entering into such agreement or agreements. All Awards (including any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by Participant upon any receipt or exercise of any Award or upon the receipt
or resale of any shares of Common Stock underlying the Award) shall be subject to the provisions of any claw-back policy implemented by the Company, including, without limitation, any claw-back policy adopted to comply with the requirements of the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, to the extent set forth in such claw-back policy and/or in the applicable Award Agreement.

thereunder, and state securities laws and regulations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan and all Awards granted hereunder shall be administered only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. To the

 EXHIBIT A 

TO STOCK OPTION GRANT NOTICE 

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 

Pursuant to the Stock Option Grant Notice (“Grant Notice”) to which this Stock Option Agreement (this
“Agreement”) is attached, Atea Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted to Participant an Option under the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to
purchase the number of Shares indicated in the Grant Notice. 
 ARTICLE I 

GENERAL 
 1.1 Defined
Terms. Capitalized terms not specifically defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan and the Grant Notice. 
 1.2
Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The Option is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan which are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall
control. 
 1.3 Grant of Option. In consideration of Participant’s past and/or continued employment with or service to the
Company or a parent or subsidiary and for other good and valuable consideration, effective as of the grant date set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”), the Company irrevocably grants to Participant an Option to
purchase any part or all of an aggregate of the number of Shares set forth in the Grant Notice, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement. Unless designated as a Non-Qualified
Stock Option in the Grant Notice, the Option shall be an Incentive Stock Option to the maximum extent permitted by law. 
 ARTICLE II

 PERIOD OF EXERCISABILITY 

2.1 Vesting; Commencement of Exercisability. 

(a) Subject to Sections 2.1(b) and 2.3, the Option shall become vested and exercisable in such amounts and at such times as are set forth in
the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice (the “Vesting Schedule”). 
 (b) Unless otherwise determined by the
Administrator, any portion of the Option that has not become vested and exercisable on or prior to the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service shall be forfeited on the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service and shall
not thereafter become vested or exercisable. 
 2.2 Duration of Exercisability. The installments provided for in the Vesting Schedule
are cumulative. Each such installment which becomes vested and exercisable pursuant to the Vesting Schedule shall remain vested and exercisable until it becomes unexercisable under Section 2.3 or pursuant to the terms of the Plan. Once the
Option becomes unexercisable, it shall be forfeited immediately. 

  
 A-1 













 2.3 Expiration of Option. The Option may not be exercised to any extent by anyone
after the first to occur of the following events: 
 (a) The Expiration Date set forth in the Grant Notice; 

(b) The expiration of three months following the date of Participant’s Termination of Service, unless such Termination of Service occurs
by reason of Participant’s death, Disability or Cause; 
 (c) The expiration of one year following the date of Participant’s
Termination of Service by reason of Participant’s death or Disability; or 
 (d) The date of Participant’s Termination of Service
for Cause. 
 Participant acknowledges that an Incentive Stock Option exercised more than three months after Participant’s termination
of status as an Employee, other than by reason of death or Disability, will be taxed as a Non-Qualified Stock Option. 

2.4 Special Tax Consequences. Participant acknowledges that, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the
time the Option is granted) of all Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options, including the Option, are first exercisable for the first time by Participant in any calendar year exceeds $100,000 (or such other limitation as imposed by
Section 422(d) of the Code), the Option and such other options shall be treated as not qualifying under Section 422 of the Code but rather shall be considered Non-Qualified Stock Options. Participant
further acknowledges that the rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking Options and other “incentive stock options” into account in the order in which they were granted. 

ARTICLE III 
 EXERCISE
OF OPTION 
 3.1 Persons Eligible to Exercise. During the lifetime of Participant, only Participant may exercise the Option or
any portion thereof. After the death of Participant, any exercisable portion of the Option may, prior to the time when the Option becomes unexercisable under Section 2.3, be exercised by Participant’s personal representative or by any
person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution. 
 3.2
Partial Exercise. Any exercisable portion of the Option or the entire Option, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to the time when the Option or portion thereof becomes unexercisable under
Section 2.3. 
 3.3 Manner of Exercise. The Option, or any exercisable portion thereof, may be exercised solely by delivery to

 APPENDIX A 

TO THE RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 

Pursuant to this Agreement, the Company has awarded to the Participant the number of shares of Restricted Stock under the Plan set forth in
the Grant Notice. 
 ARTICLE I. 

GENERAL 
 1.1
Definitions. All capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition shall have the meanings ascribed in the Plan and the Grant Notice. 

1.1 Incorporation of Terms. The Restricted Stock is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by
reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall control. 
 ARTICLE II.

 AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK 

2.1 Award of Restricted Stock. 

(a) Award. As of the Grant Date, the Company issued to the Participant the number of shares of Restricted Stock set forth in the Grant
Notice in consideration of the Participant’s agreement to remain in the service or employ of the Company or one of its subsidiaries, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged.
Such shares of Restricted Stock and any dividends and distributions made or declared with respect to such shares, in each case, whether vested or unvested shall sometimes be referred to herein as
“Shares.” 
 (b) Book Entry Form; Certificates. At the sole discretion of the
Administrator, the Shares will be issued in either (i) uncertificated form, with the Shares recorded in the name of the Participant in the books and records of the Company’s transfer agent with appropriate notations regarding the
Restrictions; or (ii) certificate form subject to the terms of Section 2.1(c). For purposes of this Agreement, “Restrictions” shall mean the forfeiture provision in Section 2.2 and
the other restrictions set forth in this Agreement or the Plan. 
 (c) Legend. Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall bear
such legend or legends as shall be determined by the Administrator. 
 (d) Escrow. The Secretary of the Company or such other escrow
holder as the Company may appoint may retain physical custody of any certificates representing the Shares until all of the Restrictions lapse or shall have been removed. 

2.2 Restrictions. 
 (a)
Forfeiture. The Restricted Stock shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on the Grant Notice. Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, any portion of the Restricted Stock which is not vested pursuant to the
Grant Notice as of the date the Participant incurs a Termination of Service shall automatically be forfeited by the Participant on the date of such Termination of Service without any additional consideration therefor and without any further action
by the Company. 

  
 A-1 













 (b) Tax Withholding; Conditions to Issuance of Certificates. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement: 
 (i) The Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the
Restricted Stock, regardless of any action the Company or any of its subsidiaries takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Restricted Stock. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries makes any
representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the awarding or vesting of the Restricted Stock or the subsequent sale of shares. The Company and its subsidiaries do not commit and are under no
obligation to structure the Restricted Stock to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s tax liability. 
 (ii) Prior to any tax
withholding becoming due, the Participant must make arrangements acceptable to the Administrator to satisfy such withholding and must satisfy such tax withholdings when due. To the extent permitted by the Administrator, the Company (or the employing
subsidiary) will withhold a portion of the shares of Restricted Stock that have an aggregate Fair Market Value sufficient to pay the minimum federal, state and local income, employment and any other applicable taxes required to withheld by the
Company or the employing subsidiary with respect to the shares. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no vested Shares will be released from the Company unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the
Administrator) will have been made by the Participant with respect to the payment of any income and other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld or collected as of the vesting date with respect to such Shares. In addition and to the
maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, and to the extent other satisfactory arrangements are not made by the Participant, the Company (or the employing subsidiary) has the right to retain from salary or other amounts payable to the Participant,
cash having a value sufficient to satisfy any tax withholding obligations that cannot be satisfied by the withholding of otherwise deliverable Shares and any other arrangements made by the Participant. 

2.3 Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided herein, upon the Grant Date, the Participant shall have all the rights of a
stockholder with respect to the Shares, including the right to receive any cash or stock dividends or other distributions paid to or made with respect to the Shares, subject to the Restrictions herein. 

2.4 Retained Distributions. The Company will retain custody of all cash dividends and other distributions (“Retained
Distributions’’) made or declared with respect to the Restricted Stock (and such Retained Distributions will be subject to the Restrictions and the other terms and conditions under this Agreement that
are applicable to the Restricted Stock) until such time, if ever, as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such Retained Distributions shall have been made, paid or declared shall have become vested pursuant to the Grant Notice or, if earlier,
tax withholding is otherwise due with respect to such Restricted Stock. 
 ARTICLE III. 

OTHER PROVISIONS 
 3.1
Section 83(b) Election. The Participant understands that Section 83(a) of the Code taxes as ordinary income the difference between the amount, if any, paid for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of such Shares at the
time the forfeiture provision on such Shares lapse or such Shares become transferable. The Participant understands that, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Participant 

  
 A-2 













 
may elect to be taxed at the time of the Grant Date, rather that at the time the forfeiture provision or transferability restriction lapses, by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the
Code (an “83(b) Election”) with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days after the Grant Date. In the event the Participant files an 83(b) Election, the Participant
will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the amount, if any, paid for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of such Shares as of the Grant Date. The Participant further understands that an additional copy of such
83(b) Election form should be filed with his or her federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the Grant Date falls. The Participant acknowledges that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United States federal income
taxation with respect to the Shares awarded hereunder, and does not purport to be complete. THE PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE COMPANY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR FILING THE PARTICIPANT’S 83(b) ELECTION, AND THE COMPANY HAS DIRECTED THE
PARTICIPANT TO SEEK INDEPENDENT ADVICE REGARDING THE APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE, THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH PARTICIPANT MAY RESIDE, AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THIS AWARD AND
THE PARTICIPANT’S PARTICIPATION IN THE PLAN. A sample 83(b) Election is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 
 3.2 Lock-Up Agreement. The Participant agrees, in connection with the initial underwritten public offering of the Common Stock of the Company pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, (i) not to (a) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise
transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company or (b) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership
of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, whether any transaction described in clause (a) or (b) is to be settled by delivery of securities, in cash or otherwise, during the period beginning on the date of the filing of such
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission and ending 180 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the offering, and (ii) to execute any agreement reflecting clause (i) above as may be requested by
the Company or the managing underwriters at the time of such offering. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock or other securities subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of the “lock-up” period. 
 3.3 Governing Law; Severability. This Agreement shall be
administered, interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof. Should any provision of this Agreement be determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, the
other provisions shall nevertheless remain effective and shall remain enforceable. 
 3.4 Notices. Any notice to be given under the
terms of this Agreement to the Company shall be addressed to the Company at its principal executive offices in care of the Secretary of the Company, and any notice to be given to the Participant shall be addressed to the Participant at the most
recent address for the Participant shown in the Company’s records. By a notice given pursuant to this Section 3.4, either party may hereafter designate a different address for notices to be given to that party. Any notice shall be deemed
duly given when sent via email or when sent by certified mail (return receipt requested) and deposited (with postage prepaid) in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal Service. 

3.5 Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Agreement shall be binding upon the Participant and his heirs, executors, administrators, successors
and assigns.
