 Pursuant to the Praxis Precision Medicines, Inc. 2020 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, as amended through the
date hereof (the “Plan”), Praxis Precision Medicines, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants a Restricted Stock Award (an “Award”) to the Grantee named above. Upon acceptance of this Award, the Grantee shall receive the
number of shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Stock”), of the Company specified above, subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan. The Company acknowledges the receipt from the Grantee
of consideration with respect to the par value of the Stock in the form of cash, past or future services rendered to the Company by the Grantee or such other form of consideration as is acceptable to the Administrator. 

1. Award. The shares of Restricted Stock awarded hereunder shall be issued and held by the Company’s transfer agent in book entry
form, and the Grantee’s name shall be entered as the stockholder of record on the books of the Company. Thereupon, the Grantee shall have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such shares, including voting and dividend rights,
subject, however, to the restrictions and conditions specified in Paragraph 2 below. The Grantee shall (i) sign and deliver to the Company a copy of this Award Agreement and (ii) deliver to the Company a stock power endorsed in blank.

 2. Restrictions and Conditions. 

(a) Any book entries for the shares of Restricted Stock granted herein shall bear an appropriate legend, as determined by the Administrator in
its sole discretion, to the effect that such shares are subject to restrictions as set forth herein and in the Plan. 
 (b) Shares of
Restricted Stock granted herein may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Grantee prior to vesting. 

(c) If the Grantee’s Service Relationship (as defined in the Plan) is terminated by reason of the Grantee’s death or the
Grantee’s Disability prior to vesting of shares of Restricted Stock granted herein, all shares of Restricted Stock shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable. For purposes hereof, “Disability” shall mean the Grantee’s physical
or mental condition that renders the Grantee unable to substantially perform for a period of 90 aggregate days (regardless of whether or not continuous) during any 360 day period, Grantee’s regular responsibilities to the Company, with or
without a reasonable accommodation. 

 (d) If the Grantee’s Service Relationship is terminated for any reason other than the
Grantee’s death or Disability prior to vesting of shares of Restricted Stock granted herein, all shares of Restricted Stock shall immediately and automatically be forfeited and returned to the Company. 

3. Vesting of Restricted Stock. The restrictions and conditions in Paragraph 2 of this Agreement shall lapse on the Vesting Date
or Dates specified in the following schedule so long as the Grantee continues to have a Service Relationship on such Dates. If a series of Vesting Dates is specified, then the restrictions and conditions in Paragraph 2 shall lapse only with
respect to the number of shares of Restricted Stock specified as vested on such date.
