 Exhibit 10.13A 

LEASE TERMINATION AGREEMENT 

This Lease Termination Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of October 24, 2014 (“Effective Date”),
by and between ST. PAUL FIRE AND MARINE INSURANCE COMPANY, a Connecticut corporation (“Landlord”), and BOX, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”), with reference to the following facts. 

RECITALS 
 A.
Behringer Harvard El Camino Real LP, predecessor-in-interest to Landlord, and Tenant are parties to that certain lease dated June 16, 2011 (the “Lease”), for the premises consisting of approximately 96,562 rentable square
feet of space located at 4440 El Camino Real, Los Altos, California (the “Premises”). The Premises are more particularly described in the Lease. 

B. Tenant and Landlord have agreed to terminate the Lease, as well as any other rights or interests Tenant may have in the Premises and
the Lease, prior to the Expiration Date (as that term is defined in Section 3.2(b) of the Lease) upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 

AGREEMENT 
 NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

1. Recitals. Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that the recitals set forth hereinabove are true and correct and incorporated into
this Agreement. 
 2. Capitalized Terms. The parties agree that the capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise
defined in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Lease. 
 3. Lease Termination. Landlord and Tenant
hereby agree to terminate the Lease as of the Termination Date (as that term is defined in this Section 3), and as of the Effective Date the Lease Expiration Date shall mean and refer to the Termination Date. The “Termination
Date” shall mean the date that Tenant has vacated and surrendered possession of the Premises to Landlord in the condition required for Tenant’s surrender of the Premises at the end of the Term in accordance with the terms of
Section 3.5 of the Lease, excepting therefrom that Tenant shall have no duty to remove Tenant’s Wiring (as that term is defined in Section 6.6(b) of the Lease) (the “Surrender Condition”); provided, however, the
Termination Date shall be no earlier than October 1, 2015 and no later than February 1, 2016 (the “Outside Termination Date”). Tenant shall vacate and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in the Surrender
Condition within the period that is on or following October 1, 2015 and on or before the Outside Termination Date. If Tenant fails to vacate and surrender the Premises in the Surrender Condition on or before the Outside Termination Date, the
Termination Date shall be deemed to occur on the Outside Termination Date, and any failure by Tenant to vacate and surrender the Premises by midnight February 1, 2016 or prior to such Outside Termination Date shall constitute a Holdover (as
that term is defined in Section 3.4 of the Lease) without Landlord’s consent, Tenant shall be a tenant at 







 
sufferance and the provisions of Section 3.4 of the Lease shall apply. Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to deliver written notice to Landlord ninety (90) days in advance of the date
by which Tenant anticipates surrendering the Premises to Landlord or Landlord’s authorized property manager in the Surrender Condition; provided, however, nothing in the foregoing shall be interpreted to prevent Tenant from vacating and
surrendering the Premises at any time after October 1, 2015, on or before the Outside Termination Date. In no event shall the Outside Termination Date be extended due to Force Majeure. 

4. Tenant’s Representations and Warranties. Tenant hereby represents and warrants to Landlord the following, each of which
shall survive the Termination Date, the termination of the Lease as amended by this Agreement, the vacation and surrender of the Premises, and the expiration of Tenant’s leasehold estate: 

(a) Tenant has not made any assignment, sublease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of any portion of the Lease, Tenant’s
leasehold estate, the Premises, any other right, title or interest under or arising by virtue of the Lease, or of any claim, demand, obligation, liability, action or cause of action arising from or pursuant to the Lease or arising from any rights of
possession arising under or by virtue of the Lease, Tenant’s leasehold estate, or the Premises. 
 (b) The person or entity executing
this Agreement on behalf of Tenant has the full right, power and authority to execute this Agreement on behalf of Tenant and to bind Tenant without the consent or approval of any other person or entity. 

(c) Tenant has the full power, capacity, authority and legal right to execute and deliver this Agreement. 

(d) This Agreement is legal, valid and binding upon Tenant and Landlord upon mutual execution of the same, whereupon this Agreement is
enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
 (e) Tenant has not done any of the following: (i) made a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors; (ii) filed any voluntary petition in bankruptcy or suffered the filing of an involuntary petition by its creditors; (iii) suffered the appointment of a receiver to take possession of all, or substantially, all of its
assets; (iv) suffered the attachment or other judicial seizure of all, or substantially all, of its assets; (v) admitted in writing to its inability to pay its debts as they become due; or (vi) made an offer of settlement, extension
or composition to its creditors generally. In addition to the foregoing, Tenant is not contemplating taking any of the aforementioned actions during the period of time commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending on the date which is
ninety-one (91) days after the Termination Date. 
 (f) There are no uncured defaults on the part of Landlord and Tenant has no claim,
cause of action, offset, set-off, deduction, counterclaim or other similar right against Landlord.

 5. Landlord’s Termination Fee. If Tenant timely vacates and surrenders the
Premises in the Surrender Condition, Landlord shall pay Tenant a termination fee (the “Termination Fee”) in accordance with the following schedule: 

(a) If the Termination Date is on or after October 1, 2015 and on or before November 1, 2015, the Termination Fee shall be $250,000;

 (b) If the Termination Date is after November 1, 2015 and on or before December 1, 2015, the Termination Fee shall be $200,000;

 (c) If the Termination Date is after December 1, 2015 and on or before January 1, 2016, the Termination Fee shall be $150,000;
and 
 (d) If the Termination Date is after January 1, 2016 and on or before February 1, 2016, the Termination Fee shall be
$100,000. 
 If Tenant fails to vacate and surrender the Premises in the Surrender Condition on or before the Outside Termination Date, no
Termination Fee shall be payable by Landlord to Tenant. If payable, the Termination Fee shall be paid by wire transfer within three (3) business days of surrender of the Premises in the Surrender Condition to Tenant’s designated bank
account as communicated in writing to Landlord. Failure by Landlord to deliver the Termination Fee to Tenant upon receipt of Tenant’s banking instructions in accordance with the terms of this Section 5 shall entitle Tenant to interest upon
such Termination Fee amount at a daily rate of One Hundred Fifty and 00/100ths United State Dollars ($150.00), together with all costs of enforcing payment by the Landlord including all attorney fees, costs and expenses incurred by Tenant. 

6. Release. Tenant agrees that from and after the Termination Date, Landlord and its Affiliates shall be released and discharged
from any and all liabilities, damages, demands, penalties, costs, claims, losses, judgments, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of court and expenses necessary in the prosecution or defense of any litigation
including the enforcement of this provision), and excluding therefrom: (i) all reconciliation of and rights to any overpayment of Rent or Additional Rent (as that term is defined in Section 4.2 of the Lease), (ii) any refund of
security deposit monies or return of the original Letter of Credit (as that term is defined in paragraph 1 of Exhibit H attached to the Lease), (iii) any interest in or rights to proceeds of insurance purchased by or held for the benefit of
Tenant, and (iv) any loss or damage sustained as the result of the fraud on the part of Landlord (collectively, “Claims”) relating to or arising from (a) Tenant’s use of the Premises, including, but not limited to,
Tenant’s actual negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its use of the Premises, (b) the Premises and all common areas adjacent thereto, (c) Landlord’s ownership, use or operation of the Premises during the Term as
same relates to Tenant, and (d) the Lease. Effective from and after the Termination Date, Tenant waives and agrees not to commence any action, or suits in law or equity, of whatever kind or nature, against Landlord in connection with the Claims
described above and expressly waives the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code which provides: 

  
 3 








 A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO
EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR 

and all similar provisions or rules of law in respect of the Claims. Tenant elects to and does assume all risk for such Claims heretofore and hereafter
arising, whether now known or unknown by Tenant. The aforementioned release of Landlord by Tenant shall not include any Claims arising out of the entry into or performance of this Agreement.
