This policy is effective as of the Effective Date and may be amended at any time in the sole discretion of the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board.

Annual Cash Compensation

The annual cash compensation amount set forth below is payable in equal quarterly installments, payable in arrears on the last day of each fiscal quarter in which the service occurred.

All annual cash fees are vested upon payment.

Equity Compensation

The equity compensation set forth below will be granted under the Celladon Corporation 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), subject to the Celladon stockholders’ approval of the Plan. All stock options granted under this policy will be nonstatutory stock options, with an exercise price per share equal to 100% of the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the underlying
