 Exhibit 10.2 

Change of Control Retention and Severance Agreement 

This Change of Control Retention and Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of June 9,
2014, by and between Cepheid and Peter Farrell (the “Executive”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 3 below. 

1. Purpose. The purpose of this Agreement is to encourage Executive to remain in the employ of the Company and to continue to devote Executive’s
full attention to the success of the Company in the event of a Change of Control, as such term is defined in Section 3 of this Agreement. 
 2.
Termination Upon Change of Control. In the event of Executive’s Termination Upon Change of Control, Executive shall receive the following payments and benefits: 

2.1 Accrued Salary, Bonus, Vacation and Benefits. Executive shall receive all salary and accrued vacation (less applicable withholding)
earned through Executive’s termination date, any earned but unpaid bonus, and the benefits, if any, under Company benefit plans to which Executive may be entitled pursuant to the terms of such plans. 

2.2 Equity Award Acceleration. Provided that Executive complies with Section 5 below, all outstanding equity awards, including,
without limitation, stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights and stock bonuses, granted or issued by the Company to Executive prior to the Change of Control shall become fully vested
and exercisable, and any such outstanding equity awards that are subject to a right of repurchase, right of forfeiture, or similar right, shall be released from such right and shall be fully vested, in each case, immediately prior to the effective
date of the Termination Upon Change of Control. 
 2.3 Cash Severance Payment. Provided that Executive complies with Section 5
below, Executive shall receive a lump sum cash payment in an amount equal to (i) eighteen (18) months of Executive’s then-effective annual base salary plus (ii) 100% of the target bonus for which the Executive would have been eligible
during the year of termination pursuant to the Company’s then-effective Key Employee Incentive Plan or equivalent cash incentive bonus plan (less applicable withholding), paid within ten (10) business days of the effectiveness of the
Release. For purposes of this Section 2.3, a Termination Upon Change of Control will be determined consistent with the rules relating to “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (“Section 409A”). Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, to the extent any payments provided under this Agreement in connection with Executive’s termination of employment constitute deferred
compensation subject to Section 409A, and Executive is deemed at the time of such termination of employment to be a “specified employee” under Section 409A, then such payment shall not be made or commence until the earlier of
(i) the expiration of the 6-month period measured from Executive’s separation from service from the Company or (ii) the date of Executive’s death following such a separation from service; provided, however, that
such deferral shall only be effected to the extent required to avoid adverse tax treatment to Executive including, without limitation, the additional twenty-percent (20%) tax for which Executive would otherwise be liable under
Section 409A(a)(1)(B) in the absence of such a deferral. The first payment thereof will include a catch-up payment covering the amount that would have otherwise been paid during the period between Executive’s termination of employment and
the first payment date but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments (if any) will be payable in accordance with their original schedule. All forms of compensation referred to in this Agreement are subject to
reduction to reflect applicable withholding and payroll taxes and other deductions required by law. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A, the provision will be read in such a
manner so that all payments hereunder comply with Section 409A. To the extent any payment under this Agreement may be classified as a “short-term deferral” within the meaning of Section 409A, such payment shall be deemed a
short-term deferral, even if it may also qualify for an exemption from Section 409A under another provision of Section 409A. 
 3.
Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in this Section 3. 
 3.1

3.2 “Change of Control” means (a) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), other than a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities of the Company under an employee benefit plan of the Company, becomes the “beneficial
owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of (A) the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or (B) the combined
voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities; (b) the Company is party to a merger or consolidation which results in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto failing to continue to
represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving or another entity) at least fifty (50%) percent of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving or
other entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; (c) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (or consummation of any transaction having similar effect); (d) the dissolution
or liquidation of the Company; or (e) a change in the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company, as a result of which fewer than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors. “Incumbent Directors” shall mean
directors who either (A) are directors of the Company as of the date hereof, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of those directors whose election or nomination was
not in connection with any transactions described in subsections (a), (b), (c) or (d) or in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors of the Company. 

3.3 “Company” means Cepheid and any successor or assign to substantially all the business and/or assets of Cepheid. 

3.4 “Diminution of Responsibilities” means the occurrence of any of the following conditions, without Executive’s
consent: (a) a significant diminution in the nature or scope of Executive’s authority, title, function or duties from Executive’s authority, title, function or duties in effect immediately preceding any Change of Control; (b) a
ten percent (10%) reduction in Executive’s base salary or a twenty-five percent (25%) reduction in Executive’s target bonus opportunity, if any, in effect immediately preceding any Change of Control (in either case, unless such
reduction is part of a Company officer-wide program to reduce expenses); (c) the Company’s requiring Executive to be based at any office or location more than 50 miles from the office where Executive was employed immediately preceding the
Change of Control; (d) any material breach of the terms of this Agreement by the Company; or (e) failure of any successor or assignee to the Company to assume this Agreement; provided, however, that Executive shall provide

4. Federal Excise Tax. If the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), but for this Section 4, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the payments and benefits under this Agreement will be
payable, at Executive’s election, either in full or in such lesser amount as would result, after taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, in
Executive’s receipt on an after-tax basis of the greatest amount of benefits. In the event Executive elects to receive such lesser amount of the payments and benefits under this Agreement, the payments and benefits shall be reduced in the
following order: (A) a pro rata reduction of (i) cash payments that are subject to Section 409A as deferred compensation and (ii) cash payments not subject to Section 409A; (B) a pro rata reduction of (i) employee
benefits that are subject to Section 409A as deferred compensation and (ii) employee benefits not subject to Section 409A; and (C) a pro rata cancellation of (i) accelerated vesting of stock and other equity-based awards
that are subject to Section 409A as deferred compensation and (ii) stock and other equity-based awards not subject to Section 409A. In 

 
the event that acceleration of vesting of stock and other equity-based award compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of
grant of Executive’s stock and other equity-based awards unless Executive elects in writing a different order for cancellation. 
 5. Release of
Claims. The payments and benefits set forth in Sections 2.2 and 2.3 of this Agreement are subject to Executive’s delivery to the Company of a signed release of claims in a form satisfactory to the Company and satisfaction of all conditions
to make such release effective within sixty (60) days following the date of his Termination Upon Change of Control (the “Release”). 

6. Agreement Not to Solicit. If Company performs its obligations to deliver the severance compensation set forth in Sections 2.2 and 2.3 of this
Agreement, then for a period of one (1) year after Executive’s termination of employment, Executive will not solicit any employee of the Company to discontinue that person’s employment relationship with the Company. 

7. Arbitration. Any claim, dispute or controversy arising out of this Agreement, the interpretation, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or
the alleged breach thereof shall be submitted by the parties to binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association. The site of the arbitration proceeding shall be in Santa Clara County, California, or another location mutually agreed to by
the parties. 
 8. Conflict in Benefits; Effect of Agreement. This Agreement shall supersede all prior arrangements, whether written or oral, and
understandings regarding severance compensation following a Change of Control and shall be the exclusive agreement for the determination of any severance compensation due upon Executive’s termination of employment upon a Change of Control. 

9. Miscellaneous. 
 9.1 Successors of
the Company. The Company will require any successor or assign (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, expressly, absolutely and
unconditionally to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession or assignment had taken place. 

9.2 No Employment Agreement. This Agreement does not alter Executive’s at-will employment status or obligate the Company to
continue to employ Executive for any specific period of time, or in any specific role or geographic location. 
 9.3 Modification of
Agreement. This Agreement may be modified, amended or superceded only by a written agreement signed by Executive and the Chief Executive Officer. 

9.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of California. 

9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the subject
matter of this Agreement, and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements, whether oral or written between or among the parties hereto with respect to the specific subject matter hereof.

Securities of such series, from time to time; provided that such additional Securities must be treated as part of the same issue for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the Securities of such series issued on the date (the “Original Issue
Date”) of the Officers’ Certificate of which this Annex I constitutes a part and such additional Securities have the same terms, provisions and CUSIP number as the Securities of such series issued on the Original Issue Date

unpaid Interest, as the Securities of such series theretofore issued; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, such series may not be reopened if the Company has effected legal defeasance or covenant defeasance with respect to the
Securities of such series pursuant to Section 402 of the Indenture or has effected satisfaction and discharge with respect to the Securities of such series pursuant to Section 401 of the Indenture. All of the Securities of such series,
including any additional Securities which may be issued upon a re-opening of such series, shall constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture. 

  

	(3)	The Securities of such series are to be issuable only as Registered Securities without coupons and may, but need not, bear a corporate seal. The Securities of such series shall initially be issued in book-entry form and

are registered at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1, respectively, immediately prior to such Interest Payment Dates (each, a “Regular Record Date”) regardless of whether such Regular Record Date is a
Business Day. Interest on the Securities of such series will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any principal of, or premium, if any, or Interest on, any of the Securities of such series is not paid when due, then
such overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, such overdue premium or Interest, as the case may be, shall bear interest until paid or until such payment is duly provided for at the rate of 4.25% per annum. 

 

	(7)	Each of the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York and The City of Los Angeles, California is hereby designated as a Place of Payment for the Securities of such series. The place where the principal of and premium,

	 	(i)	The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Debt (including without limitation Acquired Debt) if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of
the proceeds from such Debt on a pro forma basis, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries (determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting
principles) is greater than 60% of the sum of the following (without duplication): 

  

	 	(A)	the Total Assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the last day of the then most recently ended fiscal quarter; and 

  

	 	(B)	the aggregate purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the aggregate amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real
estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since the end of such fiscal quarter, including the proceeds obtained from the incurrence of such additional Debt. 

 

	 	(ii)	For purposes of this covenant, Debt will be deemed to be incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries whenever the Company or such Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect
thereof. 

  

	 	(b)	Debt Service Test. 

  

	 	(i)	The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Debt (including without limitation Acquired Debt) if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to Annual Debt Service
Charge for the period consisting of the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional Debt is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5:1 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence
of such Debt and the application of the proceeds from such Debt (determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles), and calculated on the following assumptions: 

  
 8 

	 	(A)	such Debt and any other Debt (including without limitation Acquired Debt) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had been incurred, and the application of the
proceeds from such Debt (including to repay or retire other Debt) had occurred, on the first day of such period; 

  

	 	(B)	the repayment or retirement of any other Debt of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had occurred on the first day of such period (except that, in making this
computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility, line of credit or similar facility will be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period); and 

 

	 	(C)	in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets with a fair market value in excess of $1.0 million since the first day of such four-quarter period,
whether by merger, stock purchase or sale or asset purchase or sale or otherwise, such acquisition or disposition had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being
included in such pro forma calculation. 

  

	 	(ii)	If the Debt giving rise to the need to make the calculation described in this covenant or any other Debt incurred after the first day of the relevant four- quarter period bears interest at a floating rate, then, for
purposes of calculating the Annual Debt Service Charge, the interest rate on such Debt will be computed on a pro forma basis by applying the average daily rate which would have been in effect during the entire four-quarter period to the greater of
the amount of such Debt outstanding at the end of such period or the average amount of such Debt outstanding during such period. For purposes of this covenant, Debt will be deemed to be incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries whenever the
Company or such Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect thereof. 

  

	 	(c)	Secured Debt Test. 

  

	 	(i)	The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, incur any Debt (including without limitation Acquired Debt) secured by any Lien on any property or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
whether owned on the Original Issue Date or subsequently acquired, if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds from such Debt on a pro forma basis, the aggregate principal amount (determined
on a consolidated basis in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles) of all outstanding Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries which is secured by a Lien on any property or assets of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries is greater than 40% of the sum of (without duplication): 

  

	 	(A)	the Total Assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the last day of the then most recently ended fiscal quarter; and 

  

	 	(B)	the aggregate purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the aggregate amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real
estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since the end of such fiscal quarter, including the proceeds obtained from the incurrence of such additional Debt. 

  
 9 

	 	(ii)	For purposes of this covenant, Debt will be deemed to be incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries whenever the Company or such Subsidiary shall create, assume, guarantee or otherwise become liable in respect
thereof. 

  

	 	(d)	Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. The Company will not have at any time Total Unencumbered Assets of less than 150% of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Unsecured Debt of the Company and its
Subsidiaries determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. 

  

	(17)	Section 402 of the Indenture shall apply to the Securities of such series, provided that (i) the Company may effect legal defeasance (as defined in the Indenture) and covenant defeasance (as defined in the
Indenture) pursuant to Section 402 only with respect to all (and not less than all) of the Outstanding Securities of such series and (ii) in addition to the covenants specifically referred to by section number in Section 402(3) of the

evidencing such Securities. 

  

	(21)	The Securities of such series will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the Guarantees of the Securities of such series set forth in Article Sixteen of the Indenture and endorsed on the certificates
evidencing such Securities will be senior unsecured obligations of the Guarantor.

in Sections 1004 through 1007, inclusive, of the Indenture. 

  

	(23)	The Securities of such series and the Guarantees endorsed on certificates evidencing the Securities of such series shall have such other terms and provisions as are set forth in the form of certificate evidencing the
Securities of such series and form of related Guarantee endorsed thereon attached as Annex II to the Officers’ Certificate of which this Annex I is a part, all of which terms and provisions are incorporated by reference in and
made a part of this Annex I and the Indenture for the benefit of the Securities of such series and the Holders of the Securities of such series as if set forth in full herein and therein. 

  
 10 

	(24)	As used in the Indenture with respect to the Securities of such series, in the certificates evidencing the Securities of such series and the Guarantees endorsed on the certificates evidencing the Securities of such
series, all references to “premium” on the Securities of such series shall mean any amounts (other than accrued Interest) payable upon the redemption of any Securities of such series in excess of 100% of the principal amount of such
