Dear [Lender]:

This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) confirms the terms and conditions under which you (hereinafter “Lender”) have agreed to lend to Primus Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the sum specified on the signature page hereof (the “Loan”):

1. The Loan. Not later than one (1) Business Day following the date of execution of this Agreement, Lender shall deposit to the Company’s account, as specified in Schedule 1, by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds, the principal amount of the Loan. In consideration of the making of the Loan, the Company shall, immediately upon receipt of the proceeds thereof, issue to Lender an unsecured convertible promissory note (the “Note”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Note shall bear interest at the rate, shall mature on the maturity date (the “Maturity Date”), and shall be prepayable at the time and in the manner, specified in Exhibit A. This Agreement and the Note are referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents”. For purposes of the Transaction Documents, the term “Business Day” means any day other than a day upon which banks in New York City are authorized or required by law to be closed.

2. Automatic Conversion.

a. In the event that the Company completes an initial public offering (an “Offering”) of its common stock prior to the Maturity Date, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan, together with any and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon (including default interest, if applicable) (collectively, the “Loan Balance”) shall automatically be converted, without further action by the Lender, into such number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Applicable Number”) as shall be determined by dividing the Loan Balance as of the day upon which the Offering is completed by the Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be the amount determined by multiplying the final price in such Offering by a factor of zero point seven five (0.75) . The shares issued upon conversion of the Loan Balance are referred to herein as the “Conversion Shares”.

b. The Company shall reserve out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock such number of shares of Common Stock as, in the judgment of the Company exercised in good faith, will be sufficient to permit the conversion of the Loan Balance. If at any time while the Note remains outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and reserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligations pursuant to the preceding sentence, then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to comply with such obligations.

c. Not later than ten (10) Business Days following completion of the Offering, and subject to the Lender having complied with its obligations pursuant to clause d. of this paragraph, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to issue the Applicable Number of Conversion Shares to the Lender. Unless otherwise directed by Lender, such shares shall be issued in book entry form, in the name of Lender, with the Lender’s address specified in paragraph 7.a. (or such other address as Lender shall have furnished to the Company). Upon issuance of the Applicable Number of Conversion Shares the Lender shall promptly surrender the Note to the Company. Issuance of the Applicable Number of Conversion Shares to the Lender shall fully discharge the obligations of the Company under the Note.

d. If in connection with an underwritten Offering any other stockholders of the Company are required to enter into a lock-up agreement with respect to their shares in the Company, the Lender shall, upon request from the Company, enter into a lock-up agreement, on materially the same terms and conditions, with respect to the Conversion Shares.

3. Registration Rights.

a. If at any time following the Offering the Company proposes to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, on convertible into, equity securities, for its own account or for the account of any stockholder of the Company (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their successors or any other form for a limited similar purpose or any registration statement covering only securities proposed to be issued in exchange for securities or assets of another person), the Company shall, at least thirty days prior to such filing, give written notice to the Lender of its intention to do so. Lender shall, not later than five (5) Business Days following receipt of such notice, inform the Company in writing (i) the number of Conversion Shares (if any) that Lender elects to have included in such registration) and (ii) the intended method of disposition of such Conversion Shares. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Conversion Shares that the Lender requests the Company to register to be included in such registration and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of a proposed underwritten offering to permit such Conversion Shares to be included in such registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company, in each case to the extent necessary to permit their sale or other disposition in accordance with the intended methods of distribution specified in the request of Lender; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section without obligation to the Lender and Lender may elect upon written notice to withdraw its Conversion Shares from the registration.

b. In connection with any underwritten offering under this paragraph 3, the notice to the Lender specified in clause a. hereof shall state whether such offering is an underwritten offering and the Company shall not be required to include any Conversion Shares in such Underwriting Offering unless the Lender accepts the terms of the underwriting agreed upon, in their absolute discretion, by the Company and the managing underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company. If Lender has requested that Conversion Shares held by it be included in such Registration Statement Lender shall enter into such underwriting agreement as the Company and the managing Underwriter or Underwriters may in their absolute discretion negotiate. If, in the reasonable and good faith opinion of the managing Underwriter or Underwriters, the registration of all, or part of, the Conversion Securities requested to be included in such registration and any other securities to be included in such registration jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company or the holders of securities initiating such registration, then (i) the Company shall not be cutback and (ii) the Conversion Shares and any other securities requested for inclusion pursuant to similar piggyback rights shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with the number of securities that each such person has requested be included in the registration.

c. The issuance of the Note and the Conversion Shares have been duly authorized and upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents shall be free from all taxes, liens, pre-emptive rights and charges with respect thereto.

5. Representations and Warranties of the Lender. Lender hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

a. Lender is acquiring the Note, and will (subject to satisfaction of the Equity Condition) be acquiring the Conversion Shares, in each case for [its/his/her] own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”);

b. Lender is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act;

c. Lender understands that the securities to be acquired by Lender pursuant to the Transaction Documents (the “Securities”), including without limitation the Conversion Shares, are being offered for sale and sold to Lender in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of Federal and state securities laws and that in determining the eligibility of Lender to acquire the Securities, the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and Lender’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements and acknowledgments of Lender set forth herein.

d. Lender and Lender’s advisers, if any, have been provided with all materials relating to the Company’s business operations, prospects and financial condition, and all materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities, that Lender has deemed necessary in order to make an informed investment decision with respect to an investment in the Securities. Lender and Lender’s advisers, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its management regarding the same. Lender understands that Lender’s investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. Lender has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has deemed necessary or appropriate in order to make an informed decision regarding the purchase of the Securities, and is not relying on the Company for any such accounting, legal or tax advice. In making its decision to acquire the Securities, Lender has not relied upon any information other than information provided to Lender by the Company and contained herein.

e. Lender understands that: (i) the Securities have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws, are “restricted securities” as such term is defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the 1933 Act and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, (B) Lender shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that any Securities to be sold, assigned or transferred are exempt from registration, or (C) Lender provides the Company with reasonable assurance, including an opinion of counsel in a generally acceptable form that such Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as amended, or successor rules thereto (“Rule 144”); and (ii) any sale of Securities made in reliance upon Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms thereof and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any re-sale of Securities under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom or which the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter for purposes of the 1933 Act and may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

f. Lender understands that the Note and (unless they have been registered under the 1933 Act) the certificates representing the Conversion Shares, shall bear any legend required by the “blue sky” laws of any state, and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form:

“THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS NOTE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT.”

Lender further understands that the Note shall bear a legend stating that the sale, assignment or other transfer of the Note is subject to restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

g. Lender understands that neither the Commission nor any securities commission or other governmental authority of any state, country or other jurisdiction has approved the issuance of the Securities or passed upon or endorsed the merits of the Securities or this letter agreement, or confirmed the accuracy of, determined the adequacy of, or reviewed this letter agreement or the Securities.
