FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE 

THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE (“Amendment”) dated as of November 27, 2013, by and between 150 Second Street, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), and Foundation Medicine, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”). 

Preliminary Statement

Landlord and Tenant wish to amend the Lease to acknowledge and memorialize the following: 

 

	 	(A)	Tenant has negotiated a termination of Tenant’s existing One Kendall Square Lease. The termination of the One Kendall Square Lease constitutes an OKS Rent Savings Event under Section 4.2 of the Lease and
accelerates the Rent Commencement Date under the Lease. Accordingly, Landlord and Tenant wish to amend the Lease to acknowledge the Rent Commencement Date. 

  

	 	(B)	Tenant has installed a gas pressure booster to support Tenant’s emergency generator located on the roof of the Building. Tenant has also installed an uninterruptible power supply device to support Tenant’s
generator in the event of a power failure. Tenant has requested permission to connect Tenant’s gas pressure booster to the base building generator as a secondary source of power supply in the event of a power failure. Landlord is willing to
allow such connection upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment. 

  

	 	(C)	Tenant has requested permission to install Tenant’s condenser units in the screened-in penthouse area of the Building. Landlord is willing to allow such installation upon the terms and conditions set forth in this
Amendment. 

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements contained herein and in the Lease,
Landlord and Tenant hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Rent Commencement Date. The Rent Commencement Date will be February 12, 2014
and the expiration date of the Base Term will be February 28, 2021. 
 2. Base Building Generator. Tenant acknowledges that
Landlord has no obligation under the Lease to provide an emergency generator or emergency back-up power to Tenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby agrees to allow Tenant to cause Tenant’s gas pressure booster to be connected to
Landlord’s base building standby emergency generator panel without charge and to allow Tenant to use Landlord’s base building standby emergency generator as a secondary source of power to Tenant’s gas pressure booster during the Term

 
without charge (other than any applicable expenses that may be included in Operating Expenses), subject to the applicable requirements set forth in the Lease and the following terms and
conditions: 
  

	 	(a)	All installation and connection work and use of the base building generator shall be performed at Tenant’s cost and in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements. 

 

	 	(b)	Tenant acknowledges that neither Landlord nor any consultant, employee or agent of Landlord has made any representation or warranty regarding the specifications of the base building generator or the suitability or
sufficiency thereof for Tenant’s use. 

  

	 	(c)	Tenant hereby waives any Claims against Landlord arising from any interruption of service or failure of the base building generator to operate properly from any cause whatsoever. No such interruption or failure shall
result in eviction or constructive eviction of Tenant, termination of this Lease or the abatement of Rent. Tenant hereby indemnifies Landlord from and against any and all Claims arising in connection Tenant’s use of the base building generator
as a supplemental power source for Tenant’s purposes unless caused solely by Landlord’s negligence or willful misconduct. 

  

	 	(d)	If at any time during the Term, Landlord reasonably determines, that Tenant’s connection to and use of the base building generator violates any applicable Legal Requirement or insurance requirement, voids any
warranty or otherwise adversely affects the Building or any other tenant, then Tenant shall, upon reasonable notice from Landlord attempt to correct such violation or issue. If Tenant is unable to do so, Tenant shall discontinue use of the base
building generator and shall restore the equipment or connections to the original condition or configuration reasonable wear and tear excepted. 

  

	 	(e)	No further alterations or connections to the base building generator shall be made or permitted without Landlord’s consent. 

  

	 	(f)	Once installed, the gas pressure booster shall not be removed by Tenant at any time during the Term. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, Tenant’s ownership interest in the gas pressure booster
shall transfer to Landlord without charge, and Tenant agrees that it will not remove the gas pressure booster from the Premises.

 3. Condenser Units. Tenant may cause its condenser units and any appurtenant equipment for
the cooling of the server room (collectively, “Condenser Units”) to be installed within the screened-in penthouse area of the Building in the location shown on the sketch plan attached hereto as Exhibit A without charge. The
installation and use of the Condenser Units are subject to the requirements set forth in the Lease and the following terms and conditions: 
  

	 	(a)	Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in the Lease, if requested by Landlord, Tenant shall remove the Condenser Units upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, restore the applicable
area and repair any damage related to the removal of such equipment at Tenant’s cost. 

  

	 	(b)	The Landlord shall retain the right to cause the Condenser Units to be relocated to another location within the property reasonably acceptable to Tenant at the Landlord’s cost; provided that: (i) such
relocation would not as reasonably determined by Tenant materially adversely affect the performance of the Condenser Units or the ability of the Condenser Units to provide the same level of cooling to Tenant’s server room as existed prior to
the relocation; and (ii) the Condenser Units will not be located within the Premises. 

  

	 	(c)	Tenant shall not modify the initial tenant improvements or propose any future alterations that would use more air handling capacity than 64,000 CFM, unless Landlord and Tenant mutually agree upon modifications to the
location of the Condenser Units to support such modifications or alterations. 

 4. Ratification. Except only as
expressly amended hereby, the Lease shall continue in full force and effect as heretofore. This Amendment sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter as of the date hereof and no prior agreement, letters,
representations, warranties, promises or understandings pertaining to any such matters shall be effective for any such purpose. 
 5.
Defined Terms. All capitalized terms in this Amendment shall have the same meaning as in the Lease, unless otherwise defined herein. 

6. Bind and Inure. This document shall become effective and binding only upon the execution and delivery of this Amendment by Landlord
and Tenant. 
 7. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, provided each of the parties hereto
executes at least one counterpart; each such counterpart hereof shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement. This Amendment may be executed and delivered by facsimile or other

Re: Offer of Employment 
 Dear Russell Sakamoto, 

Bridgepoint Education is pleased to offer you the position of Vice President / Chief Accounting Officer and Corporate Controller. This is a
full-time, exempt position to start on December 2nd, 2013. As an exempt employee you may work different or additional hours as necessary. This position is located at 13500 Evening Creek Drive North, San Diego, CA 92128. 

You will receive a copy of the Bridgepoint Education (THE COMPANY) employee handbook and will be subject to all of the provisions of this handbook. You will
also be required to sign an acknowledgment of receipt of the handbook. 
 Should you accept this job offer, per company policy as set-forth in Bridgepoint
Education Employee Handbook, you will be eligible to receive the following: 
 Base Salary: You will be paid in semi-monthly installments of
$11,458.33 which is equivalent to $275,000, an annual basis, and subject to deductions for taxes and other withholdings as required by law.

upon reporting to work on your first day of employment and completion of a full payroll cycle on January 3rd, 2014. The employee understands that the sign-on bonus is forfeited if the
employee fails to report to work and is subject to be reimbursed to THE COMPANY in the event employment is self-terminated prior to one (1) year of service. The total financial obligation is calculated on a monthly pro-rata basis. Therefore
every month of employment reduces financial obligation by 1/12th. For example, if the employee self-terminates after 6 months, the employee would owe THE COMPANY $50,000. If you voluntarily terminate your employment with THE COMPANY prior to
completing 12 months of employment, you understand and agree that that you must repay all unearned amounts advanced to you on or before your separation date. Nothing in this paragraph affects the at-will nature of your employment as described below.
The financial obligation is waived after twelve (12) months of full-time employment. 
 Performance Bonus: You are eligible to participate in

employment. You must be employed on the last day of the fiscal year in order to be entitled to that year’s bonus payout. The Performance Bonus is not part of the employee’s base pay and is considered taxable income. The Performance Bonus
is subject to change or termination at management’s discretion. 
 Equity Grants: You will receive an initial equity grant under the 2009 Stock
Incentive Plan, subject to approval by the Bridgepoint Board of Directors. This award will be granted in the form of Restricted Stock Units which will be subject to the company’s standard 4 year vesting schedule. The value of this initial grant
will be $100,000 with the number of RSUs determined by dividing the value of the grant by the closing trading price on the date of BOD approval. Future equity grants will be recommended for you by THE COMPANY commensurate with your level and
position within the organization. 
 Relocation Expenses: You will receive relocation reimbursement commensurate with your level within the
organization, as well as the distance between your current and accepted work location. This will include six months of temporary housing. Additionally, you are subject to all provisions set forth in Section 2.7: Relocation Policy of the

would be responsible for any relocation costs associated with his/her hire.
