[redacted]
Dear Peter:
Re:    Terms of Employment with Aurinia Pharma U.S., Inc.
This Agreement confirms the terms and conditions of your employment by Aurinia Pharma U.S., Inc. (the “Corporation”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc., a corporation under the laws of the Province of Alberta (“Parent”), and will constitute your employment agreement. The terms and conditions of your employment are set out below:

1.Position and Duties. You will be employed by the Corporation and will serve as the Chief Executive Officer, having the duties and functions customarily performed by, and have all responsibilities customary to, such position in a corporation engaged in a business similar to that of the Corporation. You will also be the Chief Executive Officer of Parent. You will report directly to the Board of Directors of Parent (the “Board”), and you will also serve as a member of the Board. In the event your employment as Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation and the Parent is terminated or you resign, in either case for any reason, you hereby agree to immediately tender your resignation as a member of the Board of Directors.
2.Term. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall have effect as of and from the date your employment commences (currently expected to be on or about April 29, 2019) (the “Effective Date”) and your employment shall continue until terminated as provided in this Agreement.
3.Base Salary. The Corporation shall pay you a base salary at the rate of USD $650,000 per year (the “Base Salary”), payable semi-monthly, subject to the withholding of all applicable deductions from such Base Salary in respect of the Base Salary and including any taxable benefits received under this Agreement or in respect of your employment. As a managerial employee of the Corporation, you are not entitled to overtime pay.
4.Annual Review. The Board or the compensation committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) shall review your Base Salary annually. This review shall not result in a decrease of your Base Salary, but it shall not necessarily result in an increase in your Base Salary. Any increase in your Base Salary shall be in the sole discretion of the Board.
Certain identified information has been excluded from this exhibit because it both (i) is not material and (ii) would be competitively harmful if publicly disclosed.

    - 2 -
5.Signing Bonus. If the Effective Date occurs within 30 days or less of signing this Agreement, then the Corporation will pay to you a onetime cash signing bonus in the amount of USD $250,000, less applicable deductions and withholdings, on or about the Effective Date (the “Signing Bonus”).
If you terminate your employment with the Corporation, or you are terminated for cause by the Corporation, within the first 12 months of the Effective Date, then you will repay to the Corporation the Signing Bonus, and the amount of the Signing Bonus will become a debt payable by you to the Corporation (Signing Bonus Debt”). You authorize the Corporation to deduct the Signing Bonus Debt, or a portion of the Signing Bonus Debt, from your final pay. The Corporation may request that you sign a written authorization to this effect. If the Corporation is unable to deduct the entirety of the Signing Bonus Debt from your final pay, as described above, the Corporation will invoice you for the outstanding amount of the Signing Bonus Debt, and you will pay the invoice within 60 days of the date that the Corporation provides you with the invoice. In the event that you fail to repay the Signing Bonus Debt as required by this Section 5, you agree to pay all collection costs and expenses incurred by the Corporation, including reasonable legal fees and costs, whether or not a suit has been filed for collection (in addition to your continuing obligation to repay the Signing Bonus Debt).
6.Performance Bonus. Parent shall review the performance of your duties and functions annually, and you shall be eligible to receive a cash bonus with a target payment of 70% of your Base Salary based on achieving certain corporate objectives set by the Board in consultation with you. Any such performance bonus in relation to the 2019 fiscal year will be prorated based on completed months of service during the 2019 fiscal year. Parent, in its sole discretion, will determine if you and Parent have met the established performance objectives within a reasonable time following the end of each fiscal year. Subject to Section 16 (Termination by the Corporation Without Cause), performance bonuses will be deemed earned following such determination by Parent and you must remain employed as of the date of such determination and as of the date of payment in order to earn a performance bonus. For greater certainty, payment of any severance pursuant to Section 16 (Termination by the Corporation Without Cause), or any period of notice of termination that is given or ought to have been given under this Agreement in respect of termination of employment, will not be considered as extending the period of your employment with respect to your eligibility to receive the performance bonuses.
Any performance bonus payments shall be made not later than March 15 following the end of the fiscal year for which they are earned, subject to the withholding of all applicable deductions by the Corporation.
The Corporation reserves the right to introduce, administer, amend and/or delete bonus plans and to amend performance objectives in its sole discretion at any time, and such changes will not constitute a breach of the terms of employment.
7.Benefits. The Corporation will arrange for you and your family to be provided with health, medical, dental, accident and life insurance and such other benefits as are
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 3 -
reasonable and appropriate for an executive level benefits plan, as determined by the Board from time to time, based on the recommendations of the Compensation Committee (if established). You may be required to provide information and undergo reasonable assessments of the insurers in order to determine your eligibility for benefits coverage. Please note that coverage under any benefit plan in effect from time to time is subject to availability and other requirements of the applicable insurer and that the components of the benefits plan may be amended, modified or terminated from time to time by the Corporation in its sole discretion, and that this may include terminating or changing carriers, and such changes will not constitute a breach of the terms of employment.
8.Vacation. During your employment with the Corporation under this Agreement, you will be entitled to an annual paid vacation as determined by the Corporation from time to time, of 30 days per annum, in addition to holidays in the United States recognized by the Corporation. The Corporation reserves the right, acting reasonably, to request that vacations be scheduled so as not to conflict with critical business operations. Vacation time should be taken in the year in which you are entitled to it, and cannot be carried forward beyond June 30th of the subsequent year.
9.Reimbursement for Expenses. During your employment under this Agreement, the Corporation shall reimburse you for reasonable travelling and other expenses actually and properly incurred by you in connection with the performance of your duties and functions, such reimbursement to be made in accordance with, and subject to, the policies of the Corporation from time to time. For all such expenses you will be required to keep proper accounts and to furnish statements, vouchers, invoices and/or other supporting documents to the Corporation.
10.Stock Options. Subject to approval by the Board and in compliance with Parent’s insider trading and blackout policies, you will be granted initial stock option pursuant to the Parent’s Stock Option Plan (the “Initial Grant”). The Initial Grant will be for 1,600,000 shares and will be granted on the date that the Parent is first able to issue options pursuant to its Insider Trading Policy (such date being the “Grant Date”) following the commencement of your employment. The Initial Grant will have an exercise price equal to the closing price of Parent’s common shares as reported on the Toronto Stock Exchange on the Grant Date, will have a term of ten (10) years, and will be subject to the terms of the stock option agreement as approved by the Board setting forth vesting conditions and other restrictions. Provided you remain employed by the Corporation, one fourth (25%) of the Initial Grant will vest on the date that is one year from the Effective Date, and the remainder of the Initial Grant will vest in equal monthly installments of 1/36th per month thereafter over the next thirty-six (36) months for so long as you remain employed by the Corporation through each such vesting date, such that the Initial Grant will be fully vested on the fourth year anniversary of the Grant Date, provided you remain employed by the Corporation at that time. Any additional stock options or other equity-based awards granted to you will be upon such terms as the Board or the Compensation Committee may determine in its discretion, as the case may be. For
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 4 -
greater certainty, it is not intended that any future option grants would be pro rated based on the term of commencement of your employment.
For greater certainty, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Parent’s Stock Option Plan) or a Take Over Bid (as defined in the Parent’s Stock Option Plan), the Parent will ensure that all of your stock options will automatically vest in accordance with the terms of the Parent’s Stock Option Plan in effect as of the date of this Agreement.
11.Working in Canada and Canadian Taxes.
(a)The Corporation will cooperate and assist you in taking all reasonable steps to seek, obtain, and maintain a valid work permit for Canada to provide services on behalf of the Corporation and Parent. The Corporation shall pay the reasonable costs associated you obtaining a permit to work in Canada;
(b)As you may be subject to income tax and other statutory withholding obligations arising from services you perform in Canada on behalf of the Corporation or Parent, the Corporation is prepared to address the overall tax and other statutory withholding burden that you experience with the intention that your total tax and other statutory withholding burden while working in both the United States and Canada will be equal to what your tax and other statutory withholding burden would have been had he remained working solely in Maryland. The Corporation will provide you with tax equalization in connection with all income tax and other statutory withholding liabilities arising from the performance of his employment duties within Canada. The Corporation intends that the income taxes and other statutory withholding levies payable by you on all taxable employment income and related benefits, as prescribed by the applicable tax and other statutory withholding laws, should be no better or worse than the personal taxes and other statutory withholding levies you would have been required to pay on such amounts if your employment duties had been performed solely in the state of Maryland. Where your annual tax and other statutory withholding obligation yields a higher total obligation than if your employment duties were solely performed in the state of Maryland, the Corporation will reimburse you for the difference. Where your annual tax and other statutory withholding obligations yields a lower total tax and other statutory withholding impact than if your employment duties were solely performed in the state of Maryland, you will  reimburse the Company for  the difference.  For the avoidance of doubt, any tax equalization payments made under this Section 11(b) shall not be subject to further tax equalization for any taxes incurred by you in connection therewith. 
(c)You shall provide the Corporation all information necessary for the preparation of a tax equalization calculation.
(d)The Corporation shall either retain an appropriate tax advisor or pay all reasonable costs and professional fees related to calculating this equalization
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 5 -
payment as well as all reasonable costs and fees associated with your filing tax returns in Canada or any of its provinces, and reserves the discretion to establish the process and criteria for determining the tax equalization calculation. For clarity, the tax equalization payments described in this Section 11(b) to (f) will not take into consideration or apply to any taxable income from sources other than your employment with the Corporation, and you will remain responsible for all income taxes arising from your personal income.
(e)If you establish your primary residence in Canada, the Corporation’s obligations under this Section 11(b) to (f) shall cease, provided that there shall be a pro-rated adjustment for any partial year.
(f)If your employment is terminated for any reason other than for Cause, then between January 1 and July 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such termination occurs, the Corporation shall pay you any remaining tax equalization payments owed in accordance with this Section 11(b) to (f) or, in the event that the reconciliation results in you owing money to the Company, you shall make such payment to the Company.
12.Compliance with Insider Trading Guidelines and Restrictions. As a result of your position, as Parent is a public company, you are subject to insider trading regulations and restrictions and are required to file insider reports disclosing the grant of any options as well as the purchase and sale of any shares in the capital of Parent. Parent may from time to time publish trading guidelines and restrictions for its employees, officers and directors as are considered by the Board, in its discretion, prudent and necessary for a publicly listed company. It is a term of your employment of the Corporation that you comply with such guidelines and restrictions.
13.Location. You will be required to perform your duties and functions for the Corporation at the Corporation's office located in Bethesda, MD, with travel for various business purposes, including but not limited to travel for meetings at the Parent’s other offices from time to time. The Corporation recognizes that your current residence is in the vicinity of [redacted] and that you intend to spend the majority of your time working out of the Corporation's Bethesda, MD office. You agree to schedule work in Bethesda, MD when it is not inconvenient for the Corporation and does not interfere with the performance of your duties as Chief Executive Officer.
14.Service to Employer. During your employment under this Agreement you will:
(a)perform your duties to the Corporation in good faith;
(b)act in and promote the best interests of the Corporation;
(c)apply your skill and experience to the performance of your duties and responsibilities and devote substantially the whole of your working time, attention and energies to the business and affairs of the Corporation;
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 6 -
(d)comply with all lawful policies and procedures put in place by the Corporation from time to time; and
(e)not without the prior approval of the Board, carry on or be engaged in any other business or occupation or become a director, officer, employee or agent of or hold any position or office with any other corporation, firm or person, except as a volunteer for a non-profit organization or in respect of civic or community activities, provided that such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of your duties under this Agreement.
15.At-Will Employment. Under the laws of the State of Maryland, your employment with the Corporation will be “at-will” employment and you may be terminated at any time with or without cause or notice. You understand and agree that neither your job performance nor promotions, commendations, bonuses or the like from the Corporation give rise to or in any way serve as the basis for modification, amendment, or extension, by implication or otherwise, of your employment with the Corporation. However, as described in this Agreement, you may be entitled to severance benefits depending on the circumstances of your termination of employment with the Corporation.
If, however, your employment is subject to the laws of a jurisdiction that has statutorily mandated minimum requirements in relation to notice of termination of employment (such as, for example, the British Columbia Employment Standards Act), and a greater entitlement is provided under such legislation than the severance benefits described in this Agreement, then that greater entitlement shall prevail and your entitlements shall be increased only to the extent necessary to satisfy such greater entitlement. In no circumstances will you be provided with less than your minimum entitlements under applicable employment standards legislation.
16.Termination by the Corporation Without Cause.
(a)If the Corporation terminates your employment without Cause (as defined below), then the Corporation shall pay you severance payments as described in this Section 16, subject to receipt by the Corporation of an effective release of claims by you in form substantially similar to that attached as Schedule A (other than minimum entitlements required by applicable legislation, if any). In no event will severance payments or termination benefits be paid or provided until such release becomes effective and irrevocable (other than minimum entitlements required by applicable legislation, if any).
(b)You will receive continuing payments of severance pay on the Corporation’s regular payroll dates for a period equal to twelve (12) months, plus one additional month for each full year of employment, up to a maximum of eighteen (18) months in aggregate, equal to your then current Base Salary as set out in Section 3 (Base Salary) and as adjusted from time to time in accordance with Section 4 (Annual Review) (such period of time is the “Severance Period”). Minimum entitlements required by applicable legislation, if any, will be paid as a lump sum.
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 7 -
(c)The Corporation will determine in its sole discretion which personal and corporate objectives have been accomplished in part or in full pursuant to Section 6 (Performance Bonus) through the date of termination. Based on the objectives that have been accomplished in part or in full through your final day of employment, you will be eligible to receive a lump sum payment of a full or partial performance bonus, to be paid not later than the earlier of (i) March 15 of the applicable following year or (ii) the date that performance bonuses are otherwise paid to Parent’s executive officers for such year.
(d)To the extent permitted by law and subject to the terms and conditions of any benefit plans in effect from time to time, the Corporation shall maintain the benefits and payments set out in Section 7 (Benefits) of this Agreement (the “Maintenance Payments”) during the Severance Period. The Corporation may, at its option, satisfy any requirement that the Corporation provide coverage under any benefit plan by (i) reimbursing your premiums under Title X of the Consolidated Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) after you have properly elected continuation coverage under COBRA (in which case you will be solely responsible for electing such coverage for your eligible dependents), or (ii) providing the cash equivalent of such benefit as would have been provided during the Severance Period or a payment equivalent to the premium cost of such coverage during the Severance Period; or (iii) providing coverage under a separate plan or plans providing coverage that is no less favorable to you than the terms of the plans in effect on your termination date. If the cash equivalent or premium cost is provided, such cash equivalent shall be paid in a lump in cash within 60 days following the date of termination of your employment, less applicable withholdings and deductions.
(e)Notwithstanding Section 16(d), if you obtain a new source of remuneration for personal services, whether through new employment, a contract for you to provide consulting or other personal services, or any position analogous to any of the foregoing, the Maintenance Payments shall terminate 9 months from the date of termination of your employment, or earlier, if required by applicable law.
(f)Any options forming part of the Initial Grant that are unvested as of the termination date, but would have vested during the Severance Period shall automatically and immediately vest upon such termination.
(g)In addition, the Corporation will arrange for you to be provided with such outplacement career counselling services as are reasonable and appropriate, to assist you in seeking new executive level employment.
(h)You shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 16 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor will any sums actually received reduce the severance payments.
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 8 -
17.Termination by the Corporation for Cause. Notwithstanding Section 16 (Termination by the Corporation Without Cause) or Section 18 (Termination Following Change in Control), the Corporation may terminate your employment as Chief Executive Officer for Cause at any time without any notice or severance. In this Agreement, “Cause” shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
(a)the commission of theft, embezzlement, fraud, obtaining funds or property under false pretences or similar acts of misconduct with respect to the property of the Corporation or its employees or the Corporation’s customers or suppliers;
(b)your entering of a guilty plea or conviction for any crime involving fraud, misrepresentation or breach of trust, or for any serious criminal offence that impacts adversely on the Corporation;
(c)willful misconduct or gross negligence in performance of your duties hereunder, including your refusal to comply in any material respect with the legal directives of the Board so long as such directives are not inconsistent with your position and duties or inconsistent with any other legal obligation or requirement, and such refusal to comply is not remedied within ten (10) working days after written notice from the Board, which written notice shall state that failure to remedy such conduct may result in termination for Cause; or
(d)your material breach of any element of this Agreement, which breach (if determined in good faith by the Corporation or the Board to be curable) is not remedied within ten (10) working days after written notice from the Corporation or the Board, which written notice shall state that failure to remedy such conduct may result in termination for Cause.
any of which shall entitle the Corporation to terminate your employment under this Section 17.
18.Termination Following Change in Control of Parent. Concurrently with execution and delivery of this Agreement, you and Parent shall enter into a “Change in Control Agreement” in the form attached hereto as Schedule B setting out the compensation provisions to be applicable in the event of the termination of your employment with the Corporation in certain circumstances following a “Change in Control” of Parent (as defined in the Change in Control Agreement).
19.No Additional Compensation upon Termination. It is agreed that neither you nor the Corporation shall, as a result of the termination of your employment, be entitled to any notice, fee, salary, bonus, severance or other payments, benefits or damages arising by virtue of, or in any way relating to, your employment or any other relationship with the Corporation (including termination of such employment or relationship) in excess of what is specified or provided for in Section 16 (Termination by the Corporation Without Cause) or Section 18 (Termination Following Change in Control), whichever is applicable, except pursuant to the terms of benefit plans under which you have accrued,
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 9 -
earned and are due a benefit, pursuant to outstanding equity awards, rights as stockholder or indemnification rights. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of the termination of your employment you may be entitled to either the benefits set forth in Section 16 of this Agreement or the Change in Control Agreement, but not both. Payment of any amount whatsoever pursuant to Section 16 (Termination by the Corporation Without Cause) or Section 18 (Termination Following Change in Control of Parent) shall be subject to the withholding of all applicable deductions by the Corporation.
20.Section 409A.
1.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to you, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits, are considered deferred compensation under Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Section 409A, and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until you have a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.
2.Any severance payments or benefits under this Agreement that would be considered Deferred Payments will be paid on, or, in the case of installments, will not commence until, the sixtieth (60th) day following your separation from service, or, if later, such time as required by Section 20 (c). Except as required by Section 20(c), any installment payments that would have been made to you during the sixty (60) day period immediately following your separation from service but for the preceding sentence will be paid to you on the sixtieth (60th) day following your separation from service and the remaining payments shall be made as provided in this Agreement.
3.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if you are a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of your termination (other than due to death), to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the Deferred Payments to which you are entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then the Deferred Payments that are payable within the first six (6) months following your separation from service, will become payable on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of your separation from service. All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if your die following your separation from service, but prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 10 -
as administratively practicable after the date of your death and all other Deferred Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit.
4.Any amount paid under this Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (a) above.
5.Any amount paid under this Agreement that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit (as defined below) will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (a) above.
6.The foregoing provisions are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. The Corporation and you agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to actual payment to you under Section 409A.
7.For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A Limit” will mean two (2) times the lesser of: (i) your annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay paid to you during your taxable year preceding the taxable year of your separation from service as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)(1) and any Internal Revenue Service guidance issued with respect thereto; or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code for the year in which your separation from service occurred.
21.Limitation on Payments. In the event that the severance and other benefits provided for in this Agreement or otherwise payable to you (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this Section 20, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then your severance benefits will be either:
i.delivered in full, or
ii.delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such severance benefits being subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code,
whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, results in the receipt by
VAN01: 5494209: v7

    - 11 -
you on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of severance benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such severance benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. If a reduction in the severance and other benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that no portion of such severance benefits is subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, the reduction shall occur on a non-discretionary basis in such a way as to minimize the reduction in the economic value deliverable to you. Where one payment or benefit has the same value for this purpose and they are payable at different times, they will be reduced on a pro rata basis. If, as a result of subsequent events or conditions, it is determined that payments have been reduced by more than the minimum amount required, then an additional payment shall be made to you in an amount equal to the excess reduction within 60 days of the date on which the amount of the excess reduction is determined, but not later than December 31 of the year in which the excess reduction is determined. In the event that acceleration of vesting of equity award compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant of your equity awards.
Unless the Corporation and you otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 21 will be made in writing by an independent firm immediately prior to the Change in Control (the “Firm”), whose determination will be conclusive and binding upon you and the Corporation for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 21, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Corporation and you will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section 21. The Corporation will bear all costs the Firm may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 21.
22.Confidentiality and Assignment of Inventions. Concurrently with execution and delivery of this Agreement and in consideration of your employment by the Corporation, you and the Corporation will enter into a “Confidentiality Agreement and Assignment of Inventions” in the form attached hereto as Schedule C.
23.Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest. During your employment with the Corporation, you will promptly and fully disclose to the Corporation in writing:

For this purpose, the definition of “associate” in the Securities Act (British Columbia) is as follows if used to indicate a relationship with any person:

(iv) a relative, including the spouse, of that person or a relative of that person's spouse, if the relative has the same home as that person;
24.Avoidance of Conflicts of Interest. You acknowledge that it is the policy of the Corporation that all interests and conflicts of the sort described in Section 23 (Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest) be avoided, and you agree to comply with all policies and directives of the Board from time to time regulating, restricting or prohibiting circumstances giving rise to interests or conflicts of the sort described in Section 23 (Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest). During your employment with the Corporation, without Board approval, in its sole discretion, you shall not enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any other person or entity that would in any way conflict or interfere with this Agreement or your duties or obligations under this Agreement or that would otherwise prevent you from performing your obligations hereunder, and you represent and warrant that you or your Associates have not entered into any such agreement, arrangement or understanding.

(a) You are entering into this Agreement freely and with knowledge of its contents with the intent to be bound by the Agreement and the restrictions contained in it;

(e) during the course of your employment by the Corporation, both before and after the Effective Date, on behalf of the Corporation and Parent, you have acquired and will acquire knowledge of, and you have come into contact with, initiated and established relationships with and will come into contact with, initiate and establish relationships with, both existing and new clients, customers, suppliers, principals, contacts and prospects of the Corporation and Parent, and that in some circumstances you have been or may well become the senior or sole representative of the Corporation and Parent dealing with such persons;
(f) in light of the foregoing, the provisions of Section 26 (Restrictive Covenant) below are reasonable and necessary for the proper protection of the business, property and goodwill of the Corporation and the Business and do not prevent you from earning a living or pursuing your career;
(g) in the event that a court finds this Agreement, or any of its restrictions, to be ambiguous, unenforceable, or invalid, you and the Corporation agree that the court will read the Agreement as a whole and interpret the restriction(s) at issue to be enforceable and valid to the maximum extent allowed by law;
(h) if the court declines to enforce this Agreement in the manner provided in subsection 25(g), you and the Corporation agree that this Agreement will be automatically modified to provide the Corporation with the maximum protection of its business interests allowed by law and you agree to be bound by this Agreement as modified; and

Dear Peter:
Re: Change in Control Agreement
Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc., a corporation under the laws of the Province of Alberta (“Parent”), considers it essential to the best interests of its members to foster the continuous employment of its senior executive officers, including the senior executive officers of Aurinia Pharma U.S., Inc. (the “Corporation”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. In this regard, the Board of Directors of Parent (the “Board”) has determined that it is in the best interests of Parent and its shareholders that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage management’s continued attention, dedication and availability to the Parent and the Corporation in the event of a Potential Change in Control (as defined in Section 2), without being distracted by the uncertainties which can arise from any possible changes in control of the Parent.
In order to induce you to agree to remain in the employ of the Corporation, such agreement evidenced by the employment agreement entered into as of the date of this Agreement between you and the Corporation (the “Employment Agreement”) and in consideration of your agreement as set forth in Section 3 below, the Corporation agrees that you shall receive and you agree to accept the severance and other benefits set forth in this Agreement should your employment with the Corporation be terminated subsequent to a Change in Control (as defined in Section 2) in full satisfaction of any and all claims that now exist or then may exist for remuneration, fees, salary, bonuses or severance arising out of or in connection with your employment by the Corporation or the termination of your employment:

b.any acquisition, directly or indirectly, by an person or related group of persons (other than Parent or a person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, Parent) of beneficial ownership of voting securities of Parent possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of Parent’s outstanding securities;

This definition of Change in Control is intended to conform to the definitions of “change in ownership of a corporation” and “change in ownership of a substantial portion of a corporation’s assets” provided in Treasury Regulation Sections 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v) and (vii).

x.If your employment shall be terminated by the Corporation for Cause or by you other than for Good Reason, the terms of the Employment Agreement shall govern and the Corporation shall have no further obligations to you under this Agreement.

VAN01: 5494209: v7

- 5 -
termination date. The Corporation may, at its option, satisfy any requirement that the Corporation provide coverage under any benefit plan by (i) reimbursing your premiums under Title X of the Consolidated Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) after you have properly elected continuation coverage under COBRA (in which case you will be solely responsible for electing such coverage for your eligible dependents), or (ii) providing the cash equivalent of such benefit as would have been provided during the severance period or a payment equivalent to the premium cost of such coverage during the severance period or providing coverage under a separate plan or plans providing coverage that is no less favorable to you than the terms of the plans in effect on your termination date. If the cash equivalent or premium cost is provided, such cash equivalent shall be paid in a lump in cash within 60 days following the date of termination of your employment.
o.the Corporation shall arrange for you to be provided with such outplacement career counselling services as are reasonable and appropriate, to assist you in seeking new executive level employment; and
p.all stock options or other equity-based awards granted to you by Parent under any stock option or other equity-based award agreement that is entered into between you and the Corporation and is outstanding at the time of termination of your employment, which stock options or other equity-based awards have not yet vested, shall immediately vest upon the termination of your employment and shall be fully exercisable (to the extent applicable) by you in accordance with the terms of the agreement or agreements under which such options or other equity awards were granted.
You shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 4 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor will any sums actually received reduce the severance payments. The foregoing payments shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 19 and 20 of the Employment Agreement.
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of the termination of your employment, you may be entitled to either the benefits set forth in Section 16 of the Employment Agreement or in this Agreement, but not both.
Receipt by you of the payments under section 4(b) above is subject to receipt by the Corporation of an effective release of claims by you in form substantially similar to that attached as Schedule A to the Employment Agreement (other than minimum entitlements required by applicable legislation, if any). In no event will amounts under this Change of Control Agreement be paid or provided until such release becomes effective and irrevocable (other than minimum entitlements required by applicable legislation, if any).
As you may be subject to income tax and other statutory withholding obligations arising from services you performed in Canada on behalf of the Corporation or Parent, the Corporation is
VAN01: 5494209: v7

- 6 -
prepared to address the overall tax and other statutory withholding burden that you experience with the intention that your total tax and other statutory withholding burden while working in both the United States and Canada will be equal to what your tax and other statutory withholding burden would have been had you remained working solely in Maryland. The Corporation will provide you with tax equalization in connection with all income tax and other statutory withholding liabilities arising in respect of the payments made in Agreement. The Corporation intends that the income taxes and other statutory withholding levies payable by you on all the amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement, as prescribed by the applicable tax and other statutory withholding laws, should be no better or worse than the personal taxes and other statutory withholding levies you would have been required to pay on such amounts if your employment duties had been performed solely in the state of Maryland. Where your tax and other statutory withholding obligation arising in respect of payments made pursuant to this Agreement yield a higher total obligation than if your employment duties were solely performed in the state of Maryland, the Corporation will reimburse you for the difference. Where your annual tax and other statutory withholding obligation arising in respect of payments made pursuant to this Agreement yield a lower total tax and other statutory withholding impact than if your employment duties were solely performed in the state of Maryland, you will  reimburse the Company for  the difference.  For the avoidance of doubt, any tax equalization payments made under this Section 4 shall not be subject to further tax equalization for any taxes incurred by you in connection therewith. 
You shall provide the Corporation all information necessary for the preparation of a tax equalization calculation.
The Corporation shall either retain an appropriate tax advisor or pay all reasonable costs and professional fees related to calculating this equalization payment as well as all reasonable costs and fees associated with your filing tax returns in Canada or any of its provinces, and reserves the discretion to establish the process and criteria for determining the tax equalization calculation. For clarity, the tax equalization payments described in this Section 4 will not take into consideration or apply to any taxable income from sources other than as set out in this Agreement, and you will remain responsible for all income taxes arising from your personal income.
5.Binding Agreement.
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by your personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If you die while any amount would still be payable to you under this Agreement if you had continued to live, that amount shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to your devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there is no such designee, to your estate.
6.Notices.
Any notice or other communication required or contemplated under, this Agreement to be given by one party to the other shall be delivered or mailed by prepaid registered post to the party to receive same at the addresses set out below:
VAN01: 5494209: v7

In such event, the notice shall be effective only if actually delivered.
7.Modification: Amendments: Entire Agreement.
This Agreement may not be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by you and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board. No waiver by either party at any time of any breach by the other party of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party will be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. Except as set forth in your Employment Agreement, no agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are not expressly set forth in this Agreement.
8.Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland and the parties hereto agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of such state.
9.Validity.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
10.No Employment or Service Contract.
VAN01: 5494209: v7

Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon you any right to continue in the employment of the Corporation for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation or you, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate your employment at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause.
If the foregoing sets forth our agreement on this matter, kindly sign and return to Parent a copy of this letter.
