 FINAL 

CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 ALLAKOS INC. 

COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE AGREEMENT 

This Common Stock Issuance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of
                    , 2013, by and between Allakos Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and The Johns Hopkins University
(the “JHU”). 
 RECITALS 

A. JHU and the Company are each a party to that certain Exclusive License Agreement with an effective date of
                    , 2013 (the “License Agreement”), pursuant to which JHU licensed certain intellectual property rights to the
Company. 
 B. Pursuant to Section 3.8 of the License Agreement, JHU is entitled to receive 111,111 shares of Common Stock of the
Company. 
 C. The Board of Directors of the Company has approved the issuance of 111,111 shares of Common Stock of the Company as
fulfillment in full of the Company’s obligation to grant such equity award to JHU pursuant to Section 3.8 of the License Agreement. 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and each intending to be bound hereby, the Company and JHU hereby agree as follows: 

1. Issuance of Common Stock. 

(a) The Company hereby issues to JHU 111,111 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Shares”) at a price of $[***]
(par value) per Share and an aggregate Purchase Price of $[***] (the “Purchase Price”). The Company will promptly, after delivery of this Agreement, issue a certificate representing the Shares registered in the name of JHU. 

(b) The Purchase Price for the Shares shall be deemed to be paid in full by JHU’s execution of the License Agreement and the grants made
by JHU pursuant to Section 2.1 of the License Agreement. 
 (c) JHU acknowledges and agrees that, except for JHU’s participation
rights set forth in Section 3.9 of the License Agreement, the issuance of the Shares satisfies in full any and all rights that JHU may have to acquire or otherwise receive equity securities or securities convertible into or exercisable for
equity securities of the Company pursuant to the License Agreement. 
 2. Stock Splits, etc. If, from time to time
during the term of this Agreement: 
 (a) there is any stock dividend or dividend of cash and/or property, stock split, or other change in
the character or amount of any of the outstanding securities of the Company, including any conversion of outstanding securities of the Company into cash or securities of another corporation, person, or entity in connection with any acquisition,
merger, consolidation, or similar transaction involving the Company; or

 FINAL 

CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 (b) there is any liquidation, dissolution, or similar transaction, 

then, in such event, any and all new, substituted or additional securities, or other property to which JHU is entitled by reason of its ownership of Shares
shall be immediately subject to this Agreement and be included in the word “Shares” for all purposes with the same force and effect as the Shares presently subject to the right of first refusal, market standoff agreement and other terms of
this Agreement. 
 3. Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares registered in the name of JHU or of any transferee
(either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) thereof may be sold or transferred (including any transfer by operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares
on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3 (the “Right of First Refusal”). 
 (a) Notice of Proposed
Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a notice (the “Notice”) stating (i) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each
proposed purchaser or other transferee (the “Proposed Transferee”); (iii) the number of Shares to be sold or transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the bona fide cash price or other consideration for which the
Holder proposes to sell or transfer such Shares (the “Offered Price”), and the Holder shall offer the Shares at the Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s). 

(b) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or
its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all or part of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with subsection
(c) below. 
 (c) Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Shares purchased by the Company (the “Company’s
Price”) or its assignee(s) under this Section 3 shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration
shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith. 
 (d) Payment. Payment of the Company’s Price
shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), 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 thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice. 

(e) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee
are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such
sale or other transfer is consummated within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the date of 

  
 2 









 FINAL 

CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 
the Notice, that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and that the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this
Section 3 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such 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 before any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred. 

(f) Termination of Right of First Refusal. The Right of First Refusal shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the effective
date of a registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to a public offering of Common Stock of the Company, or (ii) the closing date of a sale of
assets or merger of the Company or other acquisition transaction pursuant to which stockholders of the Company receive cash or securities of a buyer whose shares are publicly traded. 

(g) Invalid Transfers. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its share register any Shares which shall have
been purportedly sold or transferred if such transfer would be in violation of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares, to accord the right to vote as such owner, or to pay dividends to any purported transferee to whom such
Shares shall have purportedly been so transferred. 
 4. Legends. All certificates representing any of the Shares shall
have endorsed thereon legends in substantially the following form: 
 (a) “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO
CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, INCLUDING A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ON TRANSFERS, SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE REGISTERED HOLDER, OR ITS, HIS OR HER PREDECESSOR IN INTEREST, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL
OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.” 
 (b) “THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY
NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

 (c) Any legend required to be placed thereon by the applicable blue sky laws of any state. 

5. JHU’s Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Shares, JHU hereby represents and warrants to the
Company as follows: 
 (a) Investment Intent. JHU is purchasing the Shares solely for investment and not with any present
intention of selling or otherwise disposing of the Shares or any portion thereof in any transaction other than a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act. JHU also represents that the entire legal and beneficial interest of the
Shares is being purchased, and will be held, for JHU’s account only, and neither in whole nor in part for any other person or entity.

 FINAL 

CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 (b) Residence. JHU principal location is at the address indicated beneath
JHU’s signature below. 
 (c) Information Concerning Company. JHU has had the opportunity to discuss the plans,
operations, and financial condition of the Company with its officers and has received all information JHU has deemed appropriate to enable JHU to evaluate the financial risk inherent in investing in the Shares. JHU has a preexisting business
relationship with the Company or any of its officers, directors, or controlling persons or by reason of JHU’s business or financial experience or the business or financial experience of JHU’s professional advisors who are unaffiliated with
and who are not compensated by the Company, directly or indirectly, could be reasonably assumed to have the capacity to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company and to protect JHU’s own interests in connection with these
transactions. 
 (d) Economic Risk. JHU realizes that the purchase of the Shares involves a high degree of risk, and JHU is
able, without impairing its financial condition, to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of their value. 

(e) Restricted Securities. JHU acknowledges that the sale of the Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act. The
Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available, and the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares. 

(f) Rule 144. JHU is familiar with Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act, which in some
circumstances permits limited public resales of “restricted securities” like the shares acquired from an issuer in a non-public offering. JHU understands that its ability to sell the Shares under
Rule 144 in the future is uncertain, and may depend upon, among other things: (i) the availability of certain current public information about the Company; (ii) the resale occurring more than a specified period after JHU’s purchase
and full payment (within the meaning of Rule 144) for the Shares; and (iii) if JHU is an affiliate of the Company (A) the sale being made in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction”, transactions directly with a market maker or
riskless principal transactions, as those terms are defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (B) the amount of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding the specified limitations stated in Rule 144, and
(C) timely filing of a notice of proposed sale on Form 144, if applicable. JHU further understands that the requirements of Rule 144 may never be met, and that the Shares may never be saleable under the rule. JHU further understands that
at the time it wishes to sell the Shares, there may be no public market for the Company’s stock upon which to make such a sale, or the current public information requirements of Rule 144 may not be satisfied, either of which may preclude
JHU from selling the Shares under Rule 144 even if the relevant holding period had been satisfied. 
 (g) Further Limitations on
Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above, JHU further agrees that it shall in no event make any disposition of any portion of the Shares unless and until: 

  
 4 









 FINAL 

CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 (i) (A) there is in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering
such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with said registration statement; (B) the resale provisions of Rule 701 or Rule 144 are available in the opinion of counsel to the Company; or (C)(1) JHU shall
have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, (2) JHU shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of
JHU’s counsel, reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Securities Act, and (3) such opinion of JHU’s counsel shall have been concurred in by
counsel for the Company and the Company shall have advised JHU of such concurrence; and 
 (ii) JHU shall have complied with the Right of
First Refusal set forth in Section 3. 
 (h) Responsibility for Tax Consequences. JHU has reviewed the federal, state,
local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any tax consequences that may result now or in the future under recently enacted tax legislation) and has had the opportunity to
consult with its tax advisors, if any, regarding such consequences. JHU acknowledges that it is not relying on any statements or representations of the Company or any of the Company’s agents in regard to such tax consequences and understands
that JHU (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. JHU acknowledges that the Company has no obligation in regard to the
future conduct of its business, to act or refrain from acting in any manner, regardless of the loss of any tax benefit to JHU in connection with the purchase, ownership, or sale of the Stock, which may result from such action or inaction. 

6. Market Standoff Agreement. JHU hereby agrees that JHU shall not offer, pledge, 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, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company or enter into
any swap, hedging or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by JHU (other than those included in the registration)
for a period specified by the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company not to exceed one hundred and eighty (180) days following the effective date of any registration statement of the Company
filed under the Securities Act (or such other period as may be requested by the Company or the underwriters to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst
recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) or NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto). 

JHU agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriter which are consistent
with the foregoing or which are necessary to give further effect thereto. In addition, if requested by the Company or the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, JHU shall provide, within ten
(10) days of such request, such information as may be required by the 

  
 5 









 FINAL 

CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 
Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act. The
obligations described in this Section 6 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that
may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. 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 said one hundred and eighty (180) day (or other) period. JHU agrees that any transferee of the Shares shall be
bound by this Section 6. 
 7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
California without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof. 
 8. Jurisdiction; Venue. The parties consent to
the exclusive jurisdiction of, and venue in, the state courts in Santa Clara County in the State of California (or in the event of exclusive federal jurisdiction, the courts of the Northern District of California) with respect to any disputes
arising out of or related to this Agreement which is not resolved by the relevant parties thereto themselves in writing. 
 9.
Dispute Resolution Fees. If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements in addition
to any other relief to which such party may be entitled. 
 10. Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may
be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the parties hereto. 

11. Additional Actions. The parties will execute such further instruments and take such further action as may reasonably
be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement. 
 12. Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall
be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the United States Post Office, by regular or certified mail with postage and fees prepaid, addressed, if to JHU, at its address shown on the
Company’s records and, if to the Company, at the address of its principal corporate offices (Attention: President) or at such other address as such party may designate by ten (10) days’ advance written notice to the other party. 

13. Assignment. The Company may assign its rights and delegate its duties under this Agreement. If any such assignment or
