COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE AGREEMENT

THIS COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is effective as of the 16^th day of October, 2017 (the “Effective Date”), by and among VIR BIOTECHNOLOGY, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ALNYLAM PHARMACEUTICALS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser” and, together with Company, the “Parties”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the License Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, the Company and Purchaser are party to a Collaboration and License Agreement of even date herewith pursuant to which Purchaser shall grant to the Company certain licenses to technology useful for the development, manufacture, characterization and use of therapeutic products that function through the mechanism of RNAi, including the proprietary compounds known as ALN-HBV and ALN-HBV02 (the “License Agreement”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 7.2 of the License Agreement, as partial consideration for the grant by Purchaser to the Company of the licenses contemplated by the License Agreement, the Company desires to issue, and Purchaser desires to acquire, shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) as herein described, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED between the Parties as follows:

1. ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK.

(a) The Company hereby agrees to issue to Purchaser an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Initial Stock”) in partial consideration of Purchaser’s entering into the License Agreement.

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and provided the License Agreement is in full force and effect, upon the satisfaction of the Milestone Condition, the Company additionally agrees to issue to Purchaser, within the Milestone Issuance Time Period, the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the lesser of (i) an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or similar recapitalization affecting such shares) and (ii) 200,000,000 divided by the Milestone Stock Price (the “Milestone Stock” and together with the Initial Stock, the “Stock”), at the Milestone Closing; provided, however, that if applicable, in no event shall fractional shares be issued in connection with the foregoing and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share (with the value of such fractional share paid to Purchaser in cash); provided further, that notwithstanding anything to the

1.

Execution Version

contrary herein, if the closing of a Change of Control of the Company occurs prior to the issuance of the Milestone Stock at the Milestone Closing, then in lieu of issuing the Milestone Stock the Company agrees to pay to Purchaser after the satisfaction of the Milestone Condition and within the Milestone Issuance Time Period, a cash payment equal to the lesser of (1) $200,000,000 and (2) 5,000,000 (subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or similar recapitalization affecting such shares) multiplied by the acquisition price per share paid for the Common Stock in the Change of Control of the Company (the “Milestone Condition Payment”), at the Milestone Closing.

(c) The initial closing hereunder, including delivery by the Company to Purchaser of a certificate representing the Initial Stock, shall occur on the Effective Date, or at such other time and place as the Parties may mutually agree (the “Initial Closing”). The relevant milestone closing hereunder, including the delivery by the Company to Purchaser of a certificate representing the Milestone Stock if applicable, shall occur at such time and place as the Parties may mutually agree (the “Milestone Closing”). The term “Closing” shall apply to the Initial Closing and the Milestone Closing unless otherwise specified.

(d) For clarity, the Milestone Closing shall occur only if the License Agreement is in full force and effect as of the date of such Milestone Closing and neither the Company nor Purchaser have terminated, or given written notice of its respective intent to so terminate, the HBV Program under the License Agreement. For further clarity, if the Milestone Closing has not occurred prior to the termination of the HBV Program or the Company’s or Purchaser’s written notice of its respective intent to terminate the HBV Program, then the Company’s obligation hereunder with respect to the Milestone Stock and the Milestone Condition Payment shall automatically terminate.

(e) For purposes of this agreement:

(i) “Milestone Condition” shall mean [***]; and [***] and [***].

(ii) “Milestone Issuance Time Period” shall mean [***] or, if [***].

(iii) “Milestone Stock Price” shall mean (A) [***]; or (B) [***].

2. LIMITATIONS ON TRANSFER.

(a) From the date hereof until [***] after the Effective Date (the “Initial Restriction Period”), Purchaser shall not assign, hypothecate, donate, encumber or otherwise dispose of any interest in the Stock (a “Transfer”), unless such Transfer is approved by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). If the Company has not closed its first underwritten public offering of its Common Stock (the “IPO”) during the Initial Restriction Period, then, from the [***] of the Effective Date until the closing of the IPO (the “Interim Restricted Period”), Purchaser shall be free to Transfer the Stock subject to the restrictions in Sections 2(b) and 2(c) hereof. Upon the closing of the IPO, Purchaser shall not Transfer any shares until 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) for the IPO (the “IPO Restriction Period” and together with the Initial Restriction Period and the Interim Restricted Period, each a “Restriction Period”).

2.

Execution Version

(b) Furthermore, in addition to any restrictions imposed pursuant to Section 2(a) above, during any Restriction Period the Stock shall be subject to any right of first refusal in favor of the Company or its assignees that may be contained in the Company’s Bylaws as in effect from time to time. Purchaser hereby further acknowledges that such Purchaser may be required to hold the Stock purchased hereunder indefinitely. During the period of time during which Purchaser holds the Stock, the value of the Stock may increase or decrease, and any risk associated with such Stock and such fluctuation in value shall be borne by such Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any Restriction Period, Purchaser may Transfer the Stock to an individual or entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is in common control with Purchaser (an “Affiliate”).

(c) During the Restriction Period, Purchaser shall not Transfer any Stock to a Competitor (as defined below).

(d) If the Purchaser desires to Transfer any shares during any Restriction Period, as permitted pursuant to Sections 2(a) or 2(b) above, then the Purchaser shall first give written notice thereof to the Company. The notice shall name the proposed transferee and state the number of shares to be transferred, the proposed consideration, and all other terms and conditions of the proposed transfer.

(e) Any permitted transferee pursuant to the terms of Sections 2(a) or 2(b) above shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written instrument confirming that such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(f) Any Transfer, or purported Transfer, of shares not made in strict compliance with this Section 2 shall be null and void, shall not be recorded on the books of the Company and shall not be recognized by the Company.

(g) For purposes of this Section 2, “Competitor” shall mean [***].

(h) The foregoing restrictions on Transfer shall terminate after the IPO Restriction Period.

3. VOTING RESTRICTIONS. With respect to Voting Matters (as defined below), in the event that holders of at least a majority of the shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Requisite Majority”) consent to or vote affirmatively for any matter or action in writing, Purchaser agrees (a) to vote all shares of the Stock held by Purchaser in favor of such matter or action; (b) to vote in opposition to any and all other proposals that could reasonably be expected to delay or impair the ability of the Company to consummate such matter or action; (c) to execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of such matter or action as shall reasonably be requested by the Company in order to carry out the terms and provisions of this Section 3; and (d) not to deposit, except as provided in this Agreement, the Stock in a voting trust or subject any such Stock to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such Stock, unless specifically requested to do so by the Company. Purchaser agrees that unless the Requisite Majority have consented to or affirmatively voted for any matter or action, Purchaser shall abstain from voting any shares of the Stock, including, for the avoidance of doubt, in any election described in subpart (ii) of the definition of Voting Matters. For purposes of this

Section 3, “Voting Matters” shall mean matters relating to: (i) a Sale of the Company (as defined below); (ii) the election of directors to be elected solely by holders of Common Stock; and (iii) increasing the authorized number of shares of Common Stock if Common Stock is voting as a separate class on such matter. A “Sale of the Company” shall mean either: (i) a transaction or series of related transactions in which a person, or a group of related persons, acquires from stockholders of the Company shares representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power of the Company (a “Stock Sale”); or (b) a transaction that qualifies as a “Deemed Liquidation Event” as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation.

(a) In addition, if the Requisite Majority and the Board approves a Sale of the Company, then the Purchaser agrees:

(i) if such transaction requires stockholder approval, to vote (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) all shares of the Stock in favor of, and adopt, such Sale of the Company (together with any related amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation required in order to implement such Sale of the Company) and to vote in opposition to any and all other proposals that could reasonably be expected to delay or impair the ability of the Company to consummate such Sale of the Company;

(ii) if such transaction is a Stock Sale, to sell the same proportion of shares of capital stock of the Company beneficially held by the Purchaser as is being sold by the Requisite Majority to the person to whom the Requisite Majority propose to sell their shares of capital stock, and, on the same terms and conditions as the Requisite Majority;

(iii) to execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Sale of the Company as shall reasonably be requested by the Company or the Requisite Majority in order to carry out the terms and provision of this Section 3, including, without limitation, executing and delivering instruments of conveyance and transfer, and any purchase agreement, merger agreement, indemnity agreement, escrow agreement, consent, waiver, governmental filing, share certificates duly endorsed for transfer (free and clear of impermissible liens, claims and encumbrances), and any similar or related documents;

(iv) not to deposit, and to cause their Affiliates not to deposit, except as provided in this Agreement, any shares of the Stock owned by such party or Affiliate in a voting trust or subject any shares of the Stock to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such shares, unless specifically requested to do so by the acquiror in connection with the Sale of the Company;

(v) to refrain from exercising any dissenters’ rights or rights of appraisal under applicable law at any time with respect to such Sale of the Company;

(vi) if the consideration to be paid in exchange for the shares of the Stock pursuant to this Section 3 includes any securities and due receipt thereof by the Purchaser would require under applicable law (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities; or (y) the provision to the Purchaser of any information other than such information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the

4.

Execution Version

Act, the Company may cause to be paid to the Purchaser in lieu thereof, against surrender of the shares of the Stock which would have otherwise been sold by the Purchaser, an amount in cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of the securities which the Purchaser would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the shares of the Stock; and

(vii) in the event that the Requisite Majority, in connection with such Sale of the Company, appoint a stockholder representative (the “Stockholder Representative”) with respect to matters affecting the Purchaser under the applicable definitive transaction agreements following consummation of such Sale of the Company, (x) to consent to (i) the appointment of such Stockholder Representative, (ii) the establishment of any applicable escrow, expense or similar fund in connection with any indemnification or similar obligations, and (iii) the payment of the Purchaser’s pro rata portion (from the applicable escrow or expense fund or otherwise) of any and all reasonable fees and expenses to such Stockholder Representative in connection with such Stockholder Representative’s services and duties in connection with such Sale of the Company and its related service as the representative of the Purchaser, and (y) not to assert any claim or commence any suit against the Stockholder Representative or any other stockholder with respect to any action or inaction taken or failed to be taken by the Stockholder Representative in connection with its service as the Stockholder Representative, absent fraud or willful misconduct.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser will not be required to comply with Section 3(a) in connection with any proposed Sale of the Company (the “Proposed Sale”), unless:

(i) any representations and warranties to be made by the Purchaser in connection with the Proposed Sale are limited to representations and warranties related to authority, ownership and the ability to convey title to such shares of the Stock;

(ii) the Purchaser shall not be liable for the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by any other person in connection with the Proposed Sale, other than the Company (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any stockholder of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all stockholders);

(iii) the liability for indemnification, if any, of the Purchaser in the Proposed Sale and for the inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by the Company or its stockholders in connection with such Proposed Sale, is several and not joint with any other person (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of the Company as well as breach by any stockholder of any of identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all stockholders), and subject to the provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation related to the allocation of the escrow, is pro rata in proportion to, and does not exceed, the amount of consideration paid to the Purchaser in connection with such Proposed Sale;

(iv) liability shall be limited to the Purchaser’s applicable share (determined based on the respective proceeds payable to each stockholder in connection with such Proposed Sale in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation) of a negotiated aggregate indemnification amount that applies equally to all holders of the Company’s Common Stock but that in no event exceeds the amount of consideration otherwise payable to the Purchaser in connection with such Proposed Sale, except with respect to claims related to fraud by the Purchaser, the liability for which need not be limited as to the Purchaser;

5.

Execution Version

(v) upon the consummation of the Proposed Sale the Purchaser will receive the same amount of consideration per share of Common Stock as is received by other holders in respect of their shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the consideration to be paid in exchange for shares of the Stock includes any securities and due receipt thereof by the Purchaser would require under applicable law (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities; or (y) the provision to the Purchaser of any information other than such information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Act, the Company may cause to be paid to the Purchaser in lieu thereof, against surrender of the shares of the Stock, which would have otherwise been sold by the Purchaser, an amount in cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of the securities which the Purchaser would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the shares of the Stock; and

(vi) subject to Section 3(b)(v), requiring the same form of consideration to be available to the holders of any single class or series of capital stock, if any holders of any capital stock of the Company are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received as a result of the Proposed Sale, all holders of such capital stock will be given the same option; provided, however, that nothing in this Subsection 3(b)(vi) shall entitle any holder to receive any form of consideration that such holder would be ineligible to receive as a result of such holder’s failure to satisfy any condition, requirement or limitation that is generally applicable to the Company’s stockholders.

(c) The Purchaser shall not be a party to any Stock Sale unless all holders of Preferred Stock are allowed to participate in such transaction and the consideration received pursuant to such transaction is allocated among the parties thereto in the manner specified in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation in effect immediately prior to the Stock Sale (as if such transaction were a Deemed Liquidation Event).

(d) The rights and obligations in Sections 3(a) thru 3(c) shall terminate upon the closing of the IPO.
