 Exhibit 10.3 

GRAPHITE BIO, INC. 
 2021
EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 
 The purpose of the Graphite Bio, Inc. 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is to
provide eligible employees of Graphite Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) and each Designated Company (as defined in Section 11) with opportunities to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the
“Common Stock”). 564,000 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate have been approved and reserved for this purpose, plus on January 1, 2022 and each January 1 thereafter until the Plan terminates pursuant to Section 20, the
number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be cumulatively increased by the least of (i) 564,000 shares of Common Stock, (ii) 1% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the
immediately preceding December 31, and (iii) such lesser number of shares of Common Stock as determined by the Administrator (as defined in Section 1). 

The Plan includes two components: a Code Section 423 Component (the “423 Component”) and a
non-Code Section 423 Component (the “Non-423 Component”). It is intended for the 423 Component to constitute an “employee stock purchase plan”
within the meaning of Section 423(b) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the 423 Component shall be interpreted in accordance with that intent. Under the
Non-423 Component, which does not qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423(b) of the Code, options will be granted pursuant to rules, procedures or sub-plans adopted by the Administrator designed to comply with appliable laws to achieve tax and other objectives for eligible employees. Except as otherwise provided herein or by the Administrator, the Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component. 

 Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Plan shall have the meaning
ascribed to them in Section 11. 
 1. Administration. The Plan will be administered by the person or persons (the
“Administrator”) appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) for such purpose. The Administrator has authority at any time to: (i) adopt, alter and repeal such rules, guidelines and practices for the
administration of the Plan and for its own acts and proceedings as it shall deem advisable; (ii) interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan; (iii) make all determinations it deems advisable for the administration of the Plan, including
to accommodate the specific requirements of applicable laws, regulations and procedures for jurisdictions outside the United States; (iv) decide all disputes arising in connection with the Plan; and (v) otherwise supervise the
administration of the Plan. All interpretations and decisions of the Administrator shall be binding on all persons, including the Company and the Participants. No member of the Board or individual exercising administrative authority with respect to
the Plan shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any option granted hereunder. 
 2.
Offerings. The Company will make one or more offerings to eligible employees to purchase Common Stock under the Plan (“Offerings”). Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the initial Offering will begin on the
Registration Date and will end on November 30, 2021 (the “Initial Offering”). Thereafter, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, an Offering will begin on the first business day occurring on or after each June 1st and
December 1st and will end on the last business day occurring on or before the following November 30th and May 31st, respectively. The Administrator may, in its discretion, designate a different period for any Offering, provided that no Offering
shall exceed 27 months in duration or overlap with any other Offering. 

  
 2 

 3. Eligibility. All individuals classified as employees on the payroll records of the
Company and each Designated Company are eligible to participate in any one or more of the Offerings under the Plan, provided that, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, as of the first day of the applicable Offering (the “Offering
Date”) they are customarily employed by the Company or a Designated Company for more than 20 hours a week, provided, however, that employees who are employed for 20 hours or less a week may be eligible to participate in the Plan if required by
applicable law or regulations. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, individuals who are not contemporaneously classified as employees of the Company or a Designated Company for purposes of the Company’s or applicable Designated
Company’s payroll system are not considered to be eligible employees of the Company or any Designated Company and shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan. In the event any such individuals are reclassified as employees of the Company
or a Designated Company for any purpose, including, without limitation, common law or statutory employees, by any action of any third party, including, without limitation, any government agency, or as a result of any private lawsuit, action or
administrative proceeding, such individuals shall, notwithstanding such reclassification, remain ineligible for participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusive means for individuals who are not contemporaneously classified as employees
of the Company or a Designated Company on the Company’s or Designated Company’s payroll system to become eligible to participate in this Plan is through an amendment or subplan to this Plan, duly executed by the Company, which specifically
renders such individuals eligible to participate herein.

 4. Participation. 

(a) Participants on Effective Date. Each eligible employee as of the Registration Date shall be deemed to be a Participant at such
time. If an eligible employee is deemed to be a Participant pursuant to this Section 4(a), such individual shall be deemed not to have authorized payroll deductions or contributions and shall not purchase any Common Stock hereunder unless he or
she thereafter authorizes payroll deductions or contributions by submitting an enrollment form (in the manner described in Section 4(c)) within 15 days of the commencement of the Initial Offering. If such a Participant does not authorize
payroll deductions or contributions by submitting an enrollment form within 15 days of the commencement of the Initial Offering, that Participant will be deemed to have withdrawn from the Plan. 

(b) Participants in Subsequent Offerings. An eligible employee who is not a Participant in any prior Offering may participate in a
subsequent Offering by submitting an enrollment form to the Company or an agent designated by the Company (in the manner described in Section 4(c)) at least 15 business days before the Offering Date (or by such other deadline as shall be
established by the Administrator for the Offering). 
 (c) Enrollment. The enrollment form (which may be in an electronic format or
such other method as determined by the Company in accordance with the Company’s practices) will (a) state a whole percentage to be deducted from an eligible employee’s Compensation (as defined in Section 11) per pay period,
(b) authorize the purchase of Common Stock in each Offering in accordance with the terms of the Plan and (c) specify the exact name or names in which shares of Common Stock purchased for such individual are to be issued pursuant to
Section 10. An employee who does not enroll in accordance with these procedures will be deemed to have waived the right to participate. Unless a Participant files a new enrollment form or withdraws from the Plan, such Participant’s
deductions or contributions and purchases will continue at the same percentage of Compensation for future Offerings, provided he or she remains eligible. 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, participation in the Plan will neither be permitted nor be denied contrary to the requirements of the Code.

  
 4 

 5. Employee Contributions. Each eligible employee may authorize payroll deductions or
contributions at a minimum of 1 percent up to a maximum of 15 percent of such employee’s Compensation for each pay period or such other maximum as may be specified by the Administrator in advance of an Offering. The Company will
maintain book accounts showing the amount of payroll deductions or contributions made by each Participant for each Offering Period. No interest will accrue or be paid on payroll deductions or contributions, except as may be required by applicable
law. If payroll deductions or contributions for purposes of the Plan are prohibited or otherwise problematic under applicable law (as determined by the Administrator in its discretion), the Administrator may require Participants to contribute to the
Plan by such other means as determined by the Administrator. Any reference to “payroll deductions” or contributions in this Section 5 (or in any other section of the Plan ) will similarly cover contributions by other means made
pursuant to this Section 5. 
 6. Deduction Changes. Except in the event of a Participant increasing his or her payroll
deduction or contribution from 0 percent during the first Offering as specified in Section 4(a) or as may be determined by the Administrator in advance of an Offering, a Participant may not increase his or her payroll deduction or
contribution during any Offering, but may decrease his or her payroll deduction or contributions once during any Offering and may increase or 

  
 5 

 
decrease his or her payroll deduction or contributions with respect to the next Offering (subject to the limitations of Section 5) by filing a new enrollment form at least 15 business days
before the next Offering Date (or by such other deadline as shall be established by the Administrator for the Offering). The Administrator may, in advance of any Offering, establish rules permitting a Participant to increase, decrease or terminate
his or her payroll deduction or contributions during an Offering. 
 7. Withdrawal. A Participant may withdraw from participation in
the Plan by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Company or an agent designated by the Company (in accordance with such procedures as may be established by the Administrator). The Participant’s withdrawal will be effective as of the
next business day. Following a Participant’s withdrawal, the Company will promptly refund such individual’s entire account balance under the Plan to him or her (after payment for any Common Stock purchased before the effective date of
withdrawal). Partial withdrawals are not permitted. Such an employee may not begin participation again during the remainder of the Offering, but may enroll in a subsequent Offering in accordance with Section 4. 

8. Grant of Options. On each Offering Date, the Company will grant to each eligible employee who is then a Participant in the Plan an
option (“Option”) to purchase, on the last day of such Offering (the “Exercise Date”) and at the Option Price hereinafter provided for, the lowest of (a) a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing such
Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions or contributions on such Exercise Date by the Option Price (as defined herein), (b) the number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing $25,000 by the Fair Market Value of the Common
Stock on the Offering Date for such Offering; or (c) such other lesser maximum number of shares as shall have been established by the Administrator in 

  
 6 

 
advance of the Offering; provided, however, that such Option shall be subject to the limitations set forth below. Each Participant’s Option shall be exercisable only to the extent of such
Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions or contributions on the Exercise Date. The purchase price for each share purchased under each Option (the “Option Price”) will be 85 percent of the Fair Market Value (as defined in
Section 11) of the Common Stock on the Offering Date or the Exercise Date, whichever is less. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
Participant may be granted an Option hereunder if such Participant, immediately after the Option was granted, would be treated as owning stock possessing 5 percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of
the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (as defined in Section 11). For purposes of the preceding sentence, the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in determining the stock ownership of a Participant, and all stock
which the Participant has a contractual right to purchase shall be treated as stock owned by the Participant. In addition, no Participant may be granted an Option which permits his or her rights to purchase stock under the Plan, and any other
employee stock purchase plan of the Company and its Parents and Subsidiaries, to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of the Fair Market Value of such stock (determined on the option grant date or dates) for each calendar year in which the Option
is outstanding at any time. The purpose of the limitation in the preceding sentence is to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and shall be applied taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted. 

9. Exercise of Option and Purchase of Shares. Each employee who continues to be a Participant in the Plan on the Exercise Date shall be
deemed to have exercised his or her Option on such date and shall acquire from the Company such number of whole shares of Common Stock reserved for the purpose of the Plan as his or her accumulated payroll deductions or

  
 7 

 
contributions on such date will purchase at the Option Price, subject to any other limitations contained in the Plan; provided that, with respect to the Initial Offering, the exercise of each
Option shall be conditioned on the closing of the Company’s Initial Public Offering on or before the Exercise Date. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in advance of an Offering, any amount remaining in a Participant’s account
after the purchase of shares on an Exercise Date of an Offering solely by reason of the inability to purchase a fractional share will be carried forward to the next Offering; any other balance remaining in a Participant’s account at the end of
an Offering will be refunded to the Participant promptly. 
 10. Issuance of Certificates. Certificates or book-entries at the
Company’s transfer agent representing shares of Common Stock purchased under the Plan may be issued only in the name of the employee, in the name of the employee and another person of legal age as joint tenants with rights of survivorship, or
in the name of a broker authorized by the employee to be his, her or their, nominee for such purpose. 
 11. Definitions. 

The term “Affiliate” means any entity that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or
is under the common control with, the Company. 
 The term “Compensation” means the amount of base pay, prior to salary reduction
(such as pursuant to Sections 125, 132(f) or 401(k) of the Code), but excluding overtime, commissions, incentive or bonus awards, allowances and reimbursements for expenses such as relocation allowances or travel expenses, income or gains
related to Company stock options or other share-based awards, and similar items. The Administrator shall have the discretion to determine the application of this definition to Participants outside the United States. 

  
 8 

 The term “Designated Company” means any present or future Subsidiary or Affiliate
that has been designated by the Administrator to participate in the Plan. The Administrator may so designate any Subsidiary or Affiliate, or revoke any such designation, at any time and from time to time, either before or after the Plan is approved
by the stockholders, and may further designate such companies or Participants as participating in the 423 Component or the Non-423 Component. The Administrator may also determine which Affiliates or eligible
employees may be excluded from participation in the Plan, to the extent consistent with Section 423 of the Code or as implemented under the Non-423 Component, and determine which Designated Company or
Companies will participate in separate Offerings (to the extent that the Company makes separate Offerings). For purposes of the 423 Component, only the Company and its Subsidiaries may be Designated Companies; provided, however, that at any given
time, a Subsidiary that is a Designated Company under the 423 Component will not be a Designated Company under the Non-423 Component. The current list of Designated Companies is attached hereto as Appendix A.

 The term “Fair Market Value of the Common Stock” on any given date means the fair market value of the Common Stock determined
in good faith by the Administrator; provided, however, that if the Common Stock is admitted to quotation on The New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”)/National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”),
NASDAQ Global Market or another national securities exchange, the determination shall be made by reference to the closing price on such date. If there is no closing price for such date, the determination shall be made by reference to the last date
preceding such date for which there is a closing price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the date for which the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock is determined is the Registration Date, the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock shall be the
“Price to the Public” (or equivalent) set forth on the cover page for the final prospectus relating to the Company’s Initial Public Offering. 

  
 9 

 The term “Initial Public Offering” means the first underwritten, firm commitment
public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer and sale by the Company of its Common Stock. 

The term “New Exercise Date” means a new Exercise Date if the Administrator shortens any Offering then in progress. 

The term “Parent” means a “parent corporation” with respect to the Company, as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code.

 The term “Participant” means an individual who is eligible as determined in Section 3 and who has complied with the
provisions of Section 4. 
 The term “Registration Date” means the date on which the registration statement on Form S-1 that is filed by the Company with respect to its Initial Public Offering is declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). 

The term “Sale Event” means (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company on a consolidated basis to an
unrelated person or entity, (ii) a merger, reorganization, statutory share exchange, consolidation, or similar transaction pursuant to which the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting power and outstanding stock immediately prior to
such transaction do not own a majority of the outstanding voting power and outstanding stock or other equity interests of the resulting or successor entity (or its ultimate parent, if applicable) immediately upon completion of such transaction,
(iii) the sale of all of the Common Stock to an unrelated person, entity or group thereof acting in concert, (iv) any other transaction in which the owners of the Company’s outstanding voting power immediately prior to such
transaction do not 

  
 10 

 
own at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company or any successor entity immediately upon completion of the transaction other than as a result of the acquisition of
securities directly from the Company, or (v) the approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 

The term “Subsidiary” means a “subsidiary corporation” with respect to the Company, as defined in Section 424(f) of
the Code. 
 12. Rights on Termination or Transfer of Employment. If a Participant’s employment terminates for any reason before
the Exercise Date for any Offering, no payroll deduction or contributions will be taken from any pay due and owing to the Participant and the balance in the Participant’s account will be paid to such Participant or, in the case of such
Participant’s death, if permitted by the Administrator and valid under applicable law, to his or her designated beneficiary or to the legal representative of his or her estate as if such Participant had withdrawn from the Plan under
Section 7. An employee will be deemed to have terminated employment, for this purpose, if the corporation that employs him or her, having been a Designated Company, ceases to be a Subsidiary or Affiliate, or if the employee is transferred to
any corporation other than the Company or a Designated Company. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, a Participant whose employment transfers between, or whose employment terminates with an immediate rehire (with no break in service)
by, Designated Companies or a Designated Company and the Company will not be treated as having terminated employment for purposes of participating in the Plan or an Offering; provided, however, that if a Participant transfers from an Offering under
the 423 Component to an Offering under the Non-423 Component, the exercise of the Participant’s Option will be qualified under the 423 Component only to the extent that such exercise complies with
Section 423 of the Code. If a Participant 

  
 11 

 
transfers from an Offering under the Non-423 Component to an Offering under the 423 Component, the exercise of the Participant’s Option will remain non-qualified under the Non-423 Component. Further, an employee will not be deemed to have terminated employment for purposes of this Section 12, if the employee is on an
approved leave of absence where the employee’s right to reemployment is guaranteed either by a statute or by contract or under the policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted or if the Administrator otherwise provides in writing.

 13. Special Rules and Sub-Plans. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
Administrator may adopt special rules or sub-plans applicable to the employees of a particular Designated Company, whenever the Administrator determines that such rules are necessary or appropriate for the
implementation of the Plan in a jurisdiction where such Designated Company has employees, regarding, without limitation, eligibility to participate in the Plan, handling and making of payroll deductions or contributions by other means, establishment
of bank or trust accounts to hold payroll deductions or contributions, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, obligation to pay payroll tax, withholding procedures and handling of share issuances, any of which may vary according to
applicable requirements; provided that if such special rules or sub-plans are inconsistent with the requirements of Section 423(b) of the Code, the employees subject to such special rules or sub-plans will participate in the Non-423 Component. 
 14.
Optionees Not Stockholders. Neither the granting of an Option to a Participant nor the deductions or contributions from his or her pay shall result in such Participant becoming a holder of the shares of Common Stock covered by an Option under
the Plan until such shares have been purchased by and issued to him or her. 

  
 12 

 15. Rights Not Transferable. Rights under the Plan are not transferable by a
Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and are exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant. 

16. Application of Funds. All funds received or held by the Company under the Plan may be combined with other corporate funds and may
be used for any corporate purpose, unless otherwise required under applicable law. 
 17. Adjustment in Case of Changes Affecting Common
Stock. In the event of a subdivision of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the payment of a dividend in Common Stock or any other change affecting the Common Stock, the number of shares approved for the Plan and the share limitation set forth
in Section 8 shall be equitably or proportionately adjusted to give proper effect to such event. In the case of and subject to the consummation of a Sale Event, the Administrator, in its discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems
appropriate, 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 prevent the dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended
to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any right under the Plan or to facilitate such transactions or events: 
 (a) To
provide for either (i) termination of any outstanding Option in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would have been obtained upon the exercise of such Option had such Option been currently exercisable or
(ii) the replacement of such outstanding Option with other options or property selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion. 

(b) To provide that the outstanding Options under the Plan shall be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or
subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for similar options 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 prices. 

  
 13 

 (c) To make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other
securities or property) subject to outstanding Options under the Plan and/or in the terms and conditions of outstanding Options and Options that may be granted in the future. 

(d) To provide that the Offering with respect to which an Option relates will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date on which such
Offering will end. The New Exercise Date will occur before the date of the Sale Event. The Administrator will notify each Participant in writing or electronically prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s
Option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s Option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering as provided in Section 7
hereof. 
 (e) To provide that all outstanding Options shall terminate without being exercised and all amounts in the accounts of
Participants shall be promptly refunded. 
 18. Amendment of the Plan. The Board may at any time and from time to time amend the Plan
in any respect, except that without the approval within 12 months of such Board action by the stockholders, no amendment shall be made increasing the number of shares approved for the Plan or making any other change that would require stockholder
approval in order for the 423 Component of the Plan, as amended, to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423(b) of the Code. 

  
 14 

 19. Insufficient Shares. If the total number of shares of Common Stock that would
otherwise be purchased on any Exercise Date plus the number of shares purchased under previous Offerings under the Plan exceeds the maximum number of shares issuable under the Plan, the shares then available shall be apportioned among Participants
in proportion to the amount of payroll deductions or contributions accumulated on behalf of each Participant that would otherwise be used to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date. 

20. Termination of the Plan. The Plan may be terminated at any time by the Board. Upon termination of the Plan, all amounts in the
accounts of Participants shall be promptly refunded. Unless terminated earlier, the Plan shall automatically terminate on the ten year anniversary of the Registration Date. 

21. Governmental Regulations. The Company’s obligation to sell and deliver Common Stock under the Plan is subject to applicable
laws and the completion of any registration or qualification of the Common Stock under any U.S. or non-U.S. local, state or federal securities or exchange control law, or under rulings or regulations of the
SEC or of any other governmental regulatory body, and to obtaining any approval or other clearance from any U.S. and non-U.S. local, state or federal governmental agency, which registration, qualification or
approval the Company shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable. The Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the Common Stock with the SEC or any other U.S. or non-U.S.
securities commission or to seek approval or clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of such stock. 
 22.
Governing Law. This Plan and all Options and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as to matters within the scope thereof, and as to all other
matters shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware applied without regard to conflict of law principles. 

  
 15 

 23. Issuance of Shares. Shares may be issued upon exercise of an Option from
authorized but unissued Common Stock, from shares held in the treasury of the Company, or from any other proper source. 
 24. Tax
Withholding. Participation in the Plan is subject to any applicable U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state or local tax withholding requirements on income the Participant realizes in connection with the Plan.
Each Participant agrees, by entering the Plan, that the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from a Participant’s wages, salary or other compensation at any time the amount necessary for the Company
or any Subsidiary or Affiliate to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate any tax deductions or benefits attributable to the sale or disposition of
Common Stock by such Participant. In addition, the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from the proceeds of the sale of Common Stock or use any other method of withholding that the Company or any
Subsidiary or Affiliate deems appropriate to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(f) with respect to the 423 Component. The Company will not be required to issue any Common
Stock under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied. 
 25. Notification Upon Sale of Shares Under the 423 Component. Each
Participant agrees, by entering the 423 Component of the Plan, to give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares purchased under the Plan where such disposition occurs within two years after the date of grant of the Option pursuant to
which such shares were purchased or within one year after the date such shares were purchased. 

  
 16 

 26. Effective Date and Approval of Stockholders. The Plan shall take effect on the
date immediately preceding the Registration Date, subject to prior approval by the holders of a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present or by written consent of the stockholders.

 Exhibit 10.4 

GRAPHITE BIO, INC. 

SENIOR EXECUTIVE CASH INCENTIVE BONUS PLAN 
  

	1.	 Purpose 

This Senior Executive Cash Incentive Bonus Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) is intended to provide an incentive for superior work and to
motivate eligible executives of Graphite Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries toward even higher achievement and business results, to tie their goals and interests to those of the Company and its stockholders and to enable the
Company to attract and retain highly qualified executives. The Incentive Plan is for the benefit of Covered Executives (as defined below). 
  

	2.	 Covered Executives 

From time to time, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Compensation Committee”) may select
certain key executives (the “Covered Executives”) to be eligible to receive bonuses hereunder. Participation in the Incentive Plan does not change the “at will” nature of a Covered Executive’s employment with the Company.

  

	3.	 Administration 

The Compensation Committee shall have the sole discretion and authority to administer and interpret the Incentive Plan. 

 

	4.	 Bonus Determinations 

(a) Corporate Performance Goals. A Covered Executive may receive a bonus payment under the Incentive Plan based upon the attainment of
one or more performance objectives that are established by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion and relate to financial and operational metrics with respect to the Company or any of its subsidiaries (the “Corporate Performance
Goals”), including the following: developmental, publication, clinical or regulatory milestones; cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow and free cash flow); revenue; corporate revenue; earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization; net income (loss) (either before or after interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization); changes in the market price of the Company’s common stock; economic value-added; acquisitions, licenses or strategic
transactions; financing or other capital raising transactions; operating income (loss); return on capital, assets, equity, or investment; stockholder returns; return on sales; total shareholder return; gross or net profit levels; productivity;
expense efficiency; margins; operating efficiency; customer satisfaction; working capital; earnings (loss) per share of the Company’s common stock; bookings, new bookings or renewals; sales or market shares; number of prescriptions or
prescribing physicians; coverage decisions; leadership development, employee retention, and recruiting and other human resources matters; operating income and/or net annual recurring revenue, any of which may be (A) measured in absolute terms
or compared to any incremental increase, (B) measured in terms of growth, (C) compared to another company or companies or to results of a peer group, (D) measured against the market as a whole and/or as compared to applicable market
indices and/or (E) measured on a pre-tax or 

 
post-tax basis (if applicable). Further, any Corporate Performance Goals may be used to measure the performance of the Company as a whole or a business
unit or other segment of the Company, or one or more product lines or specific markets. The Corporate Performance Goals may differ from Covered Executive to Covered Executive and from performance period to performance period. 

(b) Calculation of Corporate Performance Goals. At the beginning of each applicable performance period, the Compensation Committee will
determine whether any significant element(s) will be included in or excluded from the calculation of any Corporate Performance Goal with respect to any Covered Executive. In all other respects, Corporate Performance Goals will be calculated in
accordance with the Company’s financial statements, generally accepted accounting principles, or under a methodology established by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of the performance period and which is consistently applied with
respect to a Corporate Performance Goal in the relevant performance period. 
 (c) Target; Minimum; Maximum. Each Corporate
Performance Goal shall have a “target” (i.e., 100 percent attainment of the Corporate Performance Goal) and may also have a “minimum” hurdle and/or a “maximum” amount. 

(d) Bonus Requirements; Individual Goals. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 4(d): (i) any bonuses paid to Covered
Executives under the Incentive Plan shall be based upon objectively determinable bonus formulas that tie such bonuses to one or more performance targets relating to the Corporate Performance Goals, (ii) bonus formulas for Covered Executives
shall be adopted in each performance period by the Compensation Committee and communicated to each Covered Executive at the beginning of each performance period and (iii) no bonuses shall be paid to Covered Executives unless and until the
Compensation Committee makes a determination with respect to the attainment of the performance targets relating to the Corporate Performance Goals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Committee may adjust bonuses payable under the
Incentive Plan based on achievement of one or more individual performance objectives or pay bonuses (including, without limitation, discretionary bonuses) to Covered Executives under the Incentive Plan based on individual performance goals and/or
upon such other terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee may in its discretion determine. 
 (e) Individual Target Bonuses.
The Compensation Committee shall establish a target bonus opportunity for each Covered Executive for each performance period. For each Covered Executive, the Compensation Committee shall have the authority to apportion the target award so that a
portion of the target award shall be tied to attainment of Corporate Performance Goals and a portion of the target award shall be tied to attainment of individual performance objectives. 

(f) Employment Requirement. Subject to any additional terms contained in a written agreement between the Covered Executive and the
Company, the payment of a bonus to a Covered Executive with respect to a performance period shall be conditioned upon the Covered Executive’s employment by the Company on the bonus payment date. If a Covered Executive was not employed for an
entire performance period, the Compensation Committee may pro rate the bonus based on the number of days employed during such period. 

  
 2 

	5.	 Timing of Payment 

(a) With respect to Corporate Performance Goals established and measured on a basis more frequently than annually (e.g., quarterly or
semi-annually), the Corporate Performance Goals will be measured at the end of each performance period after the Company’s financial reports with respect to such period(s) have been published. If the Corporate Performance Goals and/or
individual goals for such period are met, payments will be made as soon as practicable following the end of such period, but not later than two and one-half months after the end of the fiscal year in which
such performance period ends. 
 (b) With respect to Corporate Performance Goals established and measured on an annual or multi-year basis,
Corporate Performance Goals will be measured as of the end of each such performance period (e.g., the end of each fiscal year) after the Company’s financial reports with respect to such period(s) have been published. If the Corporate
Performance Goals and/or individual goals for any such period are met, bonus payments will be made as soon as practicable, but not later than two and one-half months after the end of the relevant fiscal year.

 (c) For the avoidance of doubt, bonuses earned at any time in a fiscal year must be paid no later than two and one-half months after the last day of such fiscal year.
