 THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES
THAT, for the agreed upon value of $1.00 and for other good and valuable consideration, SILICON VALLEY BANK (“Holder”) is entitled to purchase the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the class of securities (the
“Shares”) of the corporation (the “Company”) at the initial exercise price per Share (the “Warrant Price”), all as set forth above and as adjusted pursuant to Article 2 of this Warrant, subject to the provisions and
upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant. 
  
 ARTICLE 1.
EXERCISE. 
  
 1.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may
exercise this Warrant by delivering a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially the form attached as Appendix 1 to the principal office of the Company. Unless Holder is exercising the conversion right set forth in Section 1.2, Holder shall
also deliver to the Company a check for the aggregate Warrant Price for the Shares being purchased. 
  
 1.2 Conversion Right. In lieu of exercising this Warrant as specified in Section 1.1, Holder may from time to time convert this Warrant, in whole
or in part, into a number of Shares determined by dividing (a) the aggregate fair market value of the Shares or other securities otherwise issuable upon exercise of this Warrant minus the aggregate Warrant Price of such Shares by (b) the fair market
value of one Share. The fair market value of the Shares shall be determined pursuant to Section 1.3. 
  
 1.3 Fair Market Value. If the Shares are traded in a public market, the fair market value of the Shares shall be the closing price of the Shares
(or the closing price of the Company’s stock into which the Shares are convertible) reported for the business day immediately before Holder delivers its Notice of Exercise to the Company. If the Shares are not traded in a public market, the
Board of Directors of the Company shall determine fair market value in its reasonable good faith judgment. 
  
 1.4 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. Promptly after Holder exercises or converts this Warrant, the Company shall deliver to Holder
certificates for the Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised or converted and has not expired, a new Warrant representing the Shares not so acquired. 
  

 1 








 1.5 Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, or surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor. 
  
 1.6 Assumption on Sale, Merger, or Consolidation of the Company. 
  
 1.6.1 “Acquisition”. For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means any sale, license, or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any reorganization, consolidation or merger of the Company where the holders of the Company’s securities before the transaction beneficially own less than 50% of the
outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity after the transaction. 
  
 1.6.2 Assumption of Warrant. Upon the closing of any Acquisition, the successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same securities, cash, and
property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Initial Exercise Price and/or number
of Shares shall be adjusted accordingly. 
  
 ARTICLE 2. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE
SHARES. 
  
 Reference is made to the Fourth Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation of IntraLase Corp. filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on October 13, 2000 (the “Certificate”). The Holder hereby agrees that to the extent that an event or occurrence arises
that is encompassed within the provisions of Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 below (the “Dilution Provisions”) and that also triggers a change in the “Series B Conversion Price” (as defined and referred to in the Certificate) pursuant
to Section C4 thereof (and while such conversion price mechanism of the Certificate remains in effect and otherwise prior to any mandatory conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock of the Company), then the Dilution Provisions shall not be
effective or applicable to any such specific event or occurrence relating to any such change in such Series E Conversion Price, provided, however the Dilution Provisions shall be fully effective and applicable (A) under all other events and
occurrences and (B) to all other effects and impacts of any such event or occurrence that do not relate to or result in changes in the Series B Conversion Price while such conversion price mechanism of the Certificate remains in effect and otherwise
prior to any mandatory conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock of the Company. 
  
 2.1 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If the Company declares or pays a dividend on its common stock (or the Shares, if the Shares are securities other than common stock) payable in common stock, or other
securities, subdivides the outstanding common stock into a greater amount of common stock, or, if the Shares are securities other than common stock, subdivides the Shares in a transaction that increases the amount of common stock into which the
Shares are convertible, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Shares of record
as of the date the dividend or subdivision occurred. If the outstanding shares are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Initial Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased. 

 

 2 








 2.2 Reclassification, Exchange, Combinations or Substitution. Upon any reclassification, exchange,
substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and
kind of securities and property that Holder would have received for the Shares if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other event. Such an event shall include any automatic conversion
of the outstanding or issuable securities of the Company of the same class or series as the Shares to common stock pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation upon the closing of a registered public offering of the
Company’s common stock. The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder a new Warrant for such new securities or other property. The new Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable
to the adjustments provided for in this Article 2 including, without limitation, adjustments to the Initial Exercise Price and to the number of securities or property issuable upon exercise of the new Warrant. The provisions of this Section 2.2
shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions, or other events. 
  
 2.3 Adjustments for Diluting Issuances. The Warrant Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or, if the Shares are
Preferred Stock, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares, shall be subject to adjustment, from time to time in the manner set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. The provisions set forth for
the Shares in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation relating to the above in effect as of the Issue Date may not be amended, modified or waived, without the prior written consent of Holder unless such amendment, modification or waiver
affects Holder in the same manner as they affect all other shareholders of the same series of shares granted to the Holder. 
  
 2.4 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through a reorganization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue, or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Warrant by the Company, but shall at all
times in good faith assist in carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 2 and in taking all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to protect Holder’s rights under this Article against impairment. 
  
 2.5 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon
exercise or conversion of the Warrant and the number of Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. If a fractional share interest arises upon any exercise or conversion of the Warrant, the Company shall eliminate such
fractional share interest by paying Holder the amount computed by multiplying the fractional interest by the fair market value of a full Share. 
  
 2.6 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly notify Holder in writing, and, at the
Company’s expense, promptly compute such adjustment, and furnish Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall, upon written request,
furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Warrant Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to such Warrant Price.

stock any additional shares of stock of any class or series or other rights; (c) to effect any reclassification or recapitalization of common stock; (d) to merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation, or sell, lease, license, or convey
all or substantially all of its assets, or to liquidate, dissolve or wind up; or (e) offer holders of registration rights the opportunity to participate in an underwritten public offering of the company’s securities for cash, then, in
connection with each such event, the Company shall give Holder (1) at least 10 days prior written notice of the date on which a record will be taken for such dividend, distribution, or subscription rights (and specifying the date on which the
holders of common stock will be entitled thereto) or for determining rights to vote, if any, in respect of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above; (2) in the case of the matters referred to in (c) and (d) above at least 10 days prior written

in the case of the matter referred to in (e) above, the same notice as is given to the holders of such registration rights.

of the Company, such common stock, shall be subject to the registration rights set forth in the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement dated October 18, 2000 or similar agreement. The provisions set forth in the
Company’s Investors’ Right Agreement or similar agreement relating to the above in effect as of the Issue Date may not be amended, modified or waived in a manner uniquely affecting the Holder without the prior written consent of Holder.
Further, it is agreed that the lockup provision, as now in effect, as set forth in Section 16(h) of the foregoing Third Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement shall apply to this Warrant and to the Shares hereunder.
