(“we,” “our,” “us” or the “Company”) entered into an updated form indemnification agreement (the “Updated Form Indemnification Agreement”) with (i) each of our executive officers (Mr. James A. Robinson, Principal Executive Officer and Director; Ms. Cornelia Haag-Molkenteller, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer; Mr. Bryan E. Smith, General Counsel; Mr. Ajay Bansal, Principal Financial Officer; Ms. Christine G.

We also anticipate entering into the Updated Form Indemnification Agreement with any new officers and directors. Pursuant to the Updated Form Indemnification Agreement, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, the Company will continue to indemnify and advance certain expenses and costs incurred by each Indemnitee in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, proceeding, investigation, or alternative dispute resolution arising by reason of his or her service as a director or officer, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

The Updated Form Indemnification Agreement supersedes the previously existing form indemnification agreement entered into between the Company and the Indemnitees, which was filed as Exhibit 10.2 to Amendment No. 3 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 30, 2018. Our Board of Directors adopted the Updated Form Indemnification Agreement, among other things, to incorporate certain updates that reflect market indemnification practices and clarify the scope of the Indemnitees’ rights under the agreement.

The foregoing description of the Updated Form Indemnification Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Updated Form Indemnification Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
