 Exhibit 10.7 

APPLIED MOLECULAR TRANSPORT INC. 

OUTSIDE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION POLICY 

Adopted and approved by the Board of Directors on May 29, 2020 

Applied Molecular Transport Inc. (the “Company”) believes that providing cash and equity compensation to its members of
the Board of Directors (the “Board,” and members of the Board, the “Directors”) represents an effective tool to attract, retain and reward Directors who are not employees of the Company (the “Outside
Directors”). This Outside Director Compensation Policy (the “Policy”) is intended to formalize the Company’s policy regarding the compensation to its Outside Directors. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized
terms used in this Policy will have the meaning given to such terms in the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), or if the Plan is no longer in place, the meaning given to such terms or any similar terms in the
equity plan then in place. Each Outside Director will be solely responsible for any tax obligations incurred by such Outside Director as a result of the equity and cash payments such Outside Director receives under this Policy. 

Subject to Section 8 of this Policy, this Policy will be effective as of the effective date of the first registration statement that is
filed by the Company and declared effective pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, with respect to any class of the Company’s securities (the “Registration Statement”) (such date, the “Effective
Date”). 
  

	 	1.	 CASH COMPENSATION 



Annual Cash Retainer 
 Each Outside
Director will be paid an annual cash retainer of $35,000. There are no per-meeting attendance fees for attending Board meetings. This cash compensation will be paid quarterly in arrears on a prorated basis.

 Committee Annual Cash Retainer 

Effective as of the Effective Date, each Outside Director who serves as the chair of the Board, the lead Outside Director, or the chair or a
member of a committee of the Board listed below will be eligible to earn additional annual cash fees (paid quarterly in arrears on a prorated basis) as follows: 
  

					
	 Non-Executive Chair of the Board
	  	$	35,000	 
	 Chair of Audit Committee:
	  	$	15,000	 
	 Member of Audit Committee:
	  	$	7,500	 
	 Chair of Compensation Committee:
	  	$	10,000	 
	 Member of Compensation Committee:
	  	$	5,000	 
	 Chair of Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee:
	  	$	8,000	 
	 Member of Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee:
	  	$	4,000	 













 For clarity, each Outside Director who serves as the chair of a committee shall receive only
the additional annual cash fee as the chair of the committee, and not the additional annual cash fee as a member of the committee. 
  

	 	2.	 EQUITY COMPENSATION 



Outside Directors will be eligible to receive all types of Awards (except Incentive Stock Options) under the Plan (or the applicable
equity plan in place at the time of grant), including discretionary Awards not covered under this Policy. All grants of Awards to Outside Directors pursuant to Section 2 of this Policy will be automatic and nondiscretionary, except as
otherwise provided herein, and will be made in accordance with the following provisions: 
 (a) No Discretion. No person will have any
discretion to select which Outside Directors will be granted any Awards under this Policy or to determine the number of Shares to be covered by such Awards. 

(b) Initial Award. Each individual who first becomes an Outside Director following the Effective Date will be granted an Option to
purchase 60,000 Shares (an “Initial Award”) on the date on which such individual first becomes an Outside Director, whether through election by the stockholders of the Company or appointment by the Board to fill a vacancy. Subject
to Section 14 of the Plan and Section 3 of this Policy, each Initial Award will vest and become exercisable as to 1/36th of such Initial Award on each monthly anniversary of the
commencement of the applicable Outside Director’s service as an Outside Director, in each case subject to the Outside Director continuing to be a Service Provider (as defined in the Plan) through such date. 

(c) Annual Award. On the date of each annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”),
each Outside Director will be automatically granted an Option to purchase 20,000 Shares (an “Annual Award”). Subject to Section 14 of the Plan and Section 3 of this Policy, each Annual Award will vest and become
exercisable as to 100% of such Annual Award on the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the date of grant of such Annual Award or (ii) the business day prior to the next Annual
Meeting that occurs following the grant of such Annual Award, in each case, subject to the applicable Outside Director continuing to be a Service Provider through such date.  

(c) Terms. The terms and conditions of each Initial Award or Annual Award will be as follows: 

(i) Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price for an Option granted under this Policy will be one hundred percent
(100%) of the Fair Market Value on the grant date. 
 (ii) Term. The maximum term to expiration of an Option granted
under this Policy will be ten (10) years, subject to earlier termination as provided in the Plan. 
  

	 	3.	 CHANGE IN CONTROL



 In the event of a Change in Control, each Outside Director will fully vest in his or her outstanding Company equity
awards, including any Initial Award or Annual Award, provided that the Outside Director continues to be an Outside Director through such date.

	 	4.	 ANNUAL COMPENSATION LIMIT



 No Outside Director may be paid, issued or granted, in any Fiscal Year, cash compensation and equity compensation
award (including any Awards) with an aggregate value greater than $500,000 increased to $750,000 for such Outside Director for the Fiscal Year in which he or she joins the Board as an Outside Director (with the value of each equity compensation
award based on its grant-date fair value for purposes of the limitation under this Section 4). Any cash compensation paid or equity compensation award (including any Awards) granted to an individual for his or her services as an Employee, or
for his or her services as a Consultant (other than as an Outside Director), will not count for purposes of the limitation under this Section 4. 
  

	 	5.	 TRAVEL EXPENSES 



Each Outside Director’s reasonable, customary and documented travel expenses to Board or Board committee meetings will be reimbursed by
the Company. 
  

	 	6.	 ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS 



All provisions of the Plan not inconsistent with this Policy will apply to Awards granted to Outside Directors. 

 

	 	7.	 ADJUSTMENTS 



In the event that any extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities or
other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of
Shares or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be
made available under this Policy, will adjust the number of Shares issuable pursuant to Awards granted under this Policy. 
  

	 	8.	 SECTION 409A 



In no event will cash compensation or expense reimbursement payments under this Policy be paid after the later of (i) 15th day of the 3rd
month following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which the compensation is earned or expenses are incurred, as applicable, or (ii) 15th day of the 3rd month following the end of the calendar year in which the compensation is earned
or expenses are incurred, as applicable, in compliance with the “short-term deferral” exception under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the final regulations and guidance thereunder, as may be amended
from time to time (together, “Section 409A”). It is the intent of this Policy that this Policy and all payments hereunder be exempt from or otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none
of the compensation to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or comply. In no event will the Company reimburse
an Outside Director for any taxes imposed or other costs incurred as a result of Section 409A.

	 	9.	 STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL 



The initial adoption of this Policy will be subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders. 

 

	 	10.	 REVISIONS 



The Board may amend, alter, suspend or terminate this Policy at any time and for any reason. No amendment, alteration, suspension or
termination of this Policy will materially impair the rights of an Outside Director with respect to compensation that already has been paid or awarded, unless otherwise mutually agreed between the Outside Director and the Company. Termination of
this Policy will not affect the Board’s or the Compensation Committee’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it under the Plan with respect to Awards granted under the Plan pursuant to this Policy prior to the date of such
termination.
