EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

for

David Renzi

This Executive Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made between Carbylan BioSurgery, Inc. (the “Company”) and David Renzi (‘‘Executive”)(collectively, the ‘‘Parties”).

WHEREAS, the Company desires for Executive to provide services to the Company, and wishes to provide Executive with certain compensation and benefits in return for such employment services; and

WHEREAS, Executive wishes to be employed by the Company and to provide personal services to the Company in return for certain compensation and benefits;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Employment by the Company.

1.1  Position.  Executive shall serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President. During the term of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive will devote Executive’s best efforts and substantially all of Executive’s business time and attention to the business of the Company, except for approved vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacities permitted by the Company’s general employment policies. Executive shall begin his employment with the Company on June 3, 2013.

1.2  Board Position.  Executive shall serve as a director on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) for so long as he remains employed in the position of President and Chief Executive Officer. If Executives ceases to serve in such positions for any reason, then Executive will resign from his position on the Board.

1.3  Duties and Location.  Executive shall perform such duties as are required by the Board, to whom Executive will report. Executive’s primary office location shall be the Company’s Palo Alto office. The Company reserves the right to reasonably require Executive to perform Executive’s duties at places other than Executive’s primary office location from time to time, and to require reasonable business travel.

1.3  Policies and Procedures.  The employment relationship between the Parties shall be governed by the general employment policies and practices of the Company, except that when the terms of this Agreement differ from or are in conflict with the Company’s general employment policies or practices, this Agreement shall control.

2. Compensation.

2.1  Salary.  For services to be rendered hereunder, Executive shall receive a base salary at the rate of Three Hundred Fifty Thousand dollars ($350,000) per year (the “Base Salary”), subject to standard

payroll deductions and withholdings and payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll schedule.

2.2  Bonus.  Executive will be eligible for an annual discretionary target bonus of Twenty Percent (20%) of Executive’s Base Salary (the “Annual Bonus”). Whether Executive receives an Annual Bonus for any given year, and the amount of any such Annual Bonus, will be determined by the Board in its sole discretion based upon the Company’s and Executive’s achievement of objectives and milestones to be determined on an annual basis by the Board in consultation with Executive. Executive must remain an active employee through the end of any given calendar year in order to earn an Annual Bonus for that year and any such bonus will be paid prior to March 15 of the year following the year in which Executive’s right to such amount became vested. Executive will not be eligible for, and will not earn, any Annual Bonus (including a prorated bonus) if Executive’s employment terminates for any reason before the end of the calendar year.

2.3  Standard Company Benefits.  Executive shall be entitled to participate in all employee benefit programs for which Executive is eligible under the terms and conditions of the benefit plans that may be in effect from time to time and provided by the Company to its employees. The Company reserves the right to cancel or change the benefit plans or programs it offers to its employees at any time.

2.4  Option Grant.  Subject to approval by the Board, Executive shall be granted an option to purchase 2,103,305 shares of Common Stock in the Company at the fair market value on the date of grant (the “Option”). The Option shall be governed in all respects by the terms of the governing plan documents and option agreement between Executive and the Company, which shall provide for the following vesting schedule;  ¹⁄₄ of the shares subject to the Option shall vest one (1) year after grant, with the remaining shares vesting in equal monthly installments over the three (3) years thereafter. The Option Agreement shall also provide, among other things, that all shares shall immediately vest in the event of a Change in Control in which the Option is not assumed by the acquiring company. Future option grants may be offered by the Board to the Executive in its discretion.

3. Termination of Employment; Severance.

3.1  At-Will Employment.  Executive’s employment relationship is at-will. Either Executive or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without Cause or advance notice.

3.2  Termination Without Cause.

(i)  The Company may terminate Executive’s employment with the Company at any time without Cause (as defined below).

(ii)  In the event Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause, then provided such termination constitutes a “separation from service” (as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), without regard to any alternative definition thereunder, a

“Separation from Service”), and Executive remains in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall provide Executive with the following Severance Benefits:

(a) The Company shall pay Executive, as severance, one (1) year of Executive’s base salary in effect as of the date of Executive’s employment termination, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings (the “Severance”). The Severance will be paid in equal installments on the Company’s regular payroll schedule over the one (1) year period following Executive’s Separation from Service; provided, however, that no payments will be made prior to the 60th day following Executive’s Separation from Service. On the 60th day following Executive’s Separation from Service, the Company will pay Executive in a lump sum the Severance that Executive would have received on or prior to such date under the original schedule but for the delay while waiting for the 60th day in compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the effectiveness of the Separation Agreement referenced in Section 4 below, with the balance of the Severance being paid as originally scheduled.

(b) Provided Executive timely elects continued coverage under COBRA, the Company shall pay the COBRA premiums to continue Executive’s coverage (including coverage for eligible dependents, if applicable) (“COBRA Premiums”) through the period (the “COBRA Premium Period”) starting on the Executive’s Separation from Service and ending on the earliest to occur of: (i) one year following Executive’s Separation from Service; (ii) the date Executive becomes eligible for group health insurance coverage through a new employer; or (iii) the date Executive ceases to be eligible for COBRA continuation coverage for any reason. In the event Executive becomes covered under another employer’s group health plan or otherwise cease to be eligible for COBRA during the COBRA Premium Period, Executive must immediately notify the Company of such event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay the COBRA Premiums without a substantial risk of violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company instead shall pay to Executive, on the first day of each calendar month, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the applicable COBRA Premiums for that month, subject to applicable tax withholdings, for the remainder of the COBRA Premium Period, which Executive may, but is not obligated to, use toward the cost of COBRA Premiums.

(c) The vesting of Executive’s Option and any other options then held by Executive shall be accelerated such that the shares subject thereto that would have vested in the one (1) year period following Executive’s Separation from Service had Executive’s employment not been terminated shall be deemed vested and exercisable as of Executive’s last day of employment (the “Accelerated Vesting”); provided, however, that if the termination without Cause occurs either three (3) months prior to or within one (1) year after the effective date of a Change in Control (as defined below), then 100% of the shares subject to the Option and any other options then held by Executive shall be deemed vested and exercisable as of Executive’s last day of employment.

3.3 Resignation.

(i)  Executive may resign from Executive’s employment with the Company at any time, with or without Good Reason (as defined below).

(ii)  In the event Executive resigns for Good Reason, then provided such termination constitutes a Separation from Service, and Executive remains in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall provide Executive with the Severance set forth in Section 3.2(ii)(a) above, as well as the COBRA Premiums set forth above in Section 3.2(ii)(b) and the accelerated vesting set forth above in Section 3.2(ii)(c).

(iii)  In the event Executive resigns without Good Reason, then (i) Executive will no longer vest in the Option, (ii) all payments of compensation by the Company to Executive hereunder will terminate immediately (except as to amounts already earned), and (c) Executive will not be entitled to any severance benefits, including (without limitation) the Severance, COBRA Premiums, or Accelerated Vesting.

3.4 Termination for Cause; Death or Disability.

(i)  The Company may terminate Executive’s employment with the Company at any time for Cause. Executive’s employment with the Company may also be terminated due to Executive’s death or disability.

(ii)  If the Company terminates Executive’s employment for Cause, or upon Executive’s death or disability, then (i) Executive will no longer vest in the Option, (ii) all payments of compensation by the Company to Executive hereunder will terminate immediately (except as to amounts already earned), and (c) Executive will not be entitled to any severance benefits, including (without limitation) the Severance, COBRA Premiums, or Accelerated Vesting.

4. Conditions to Receipt of Severance, COBRA Premiums, and Accelerated Vesting. The receipt of the Severance, COBRA Premiums, and Accelerated Vesting will be subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Separation Agreement”). No Severance, COBRA Premiums, or Accelerated Vesting will be paid or provided until the Separation Agreement becomes effective. As a further condition to the receipt of any severance benefits set forth in this Agreement, Executive shall also be required to resign from all positions and terminate any relationships as an employee, advisor, officer or director with the Company and any of its affiliates, each effective on the date of termination.

5. Section 409A.    It is intended that all of the severance benefits and other payments payable under this Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Code Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulations 1.409A1(b)(4), 1.409A1(b)(5) and 1.409A1(b)(9), and this Agreement will be construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions, and to the extent no so exempt, this Agreement (and any definitions hereunder) will be construed in a manner that complies with Section 409A. For purposes of Code Section 409A (including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A2(b)(2)(iii)), Executive’s right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement (whether severance payments, reimbursements or otherwise) shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each installment payment hereunder shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed by the Company at the time of Executive’s Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), and if any of the payments upon Separation from Service set forth herein and/or under any other agreement with the Company are deemed to be “deferred compensation”, then to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of such payments is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the related adverse taxation under Section 409A, such payments shall not be provided to Executive prior to the earliest of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company, (ii) the date of Executive’s death or (iii) such earlier date as permitted under Section 409A without the imposition of adverse taxation. Upon the first business day following the expiration of such applicable Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) period, all payments deferred pursuant to this Paragraph shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive, and any remaining payments due shall be paid as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable agreement. No interest shall be due on any amounts so deferred.

6. Definitions.

(i)  Cause.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” for termination will mean: (a) commission of any felony or crime involving dishonesty; (b) participation in any fraud against the Company; (c) material breach of Executive’s duties to the Company; (d) persistent and material unsatisfactory performance of job duties after detailed written notice from the Board and a reasonable opportunity to cure; or (e) material misconduct or other violation of Company policy that causes material harm to the Company.

(ii)  Good Reason.  For purposes of this Agreement, Executive shall have “Good Reason” for resignation from employment with the Company if any of the following actions are taken by the Company without Executive’s prior written consent: (a) a material reduction in Executive’s base salary, which the parties agree is a reduction of at least 10% of Executive’s base salary; (b) a material reduction in Executive’s duties (including responsibilities and/or authorities), provided, however, that a change in job position (including a change in title) shall not be deemed a “material reduction” in and of itself unless Executive’s new duties are materially reduced from the prior duties; or (c) relocation of Executive’s principal place of employment to a place that increases Executive’s one-way commute by more than thirty-five (35) miles as compared to Executive’s then-current principal place of employment immediately prior to such relocation. In order to resign for Good Reason, Executive must provide written notice to the Company’s Chairman within 45 days after he first has knowledge of the occurrence of the event giving rise to Good Reason setting forth the basis for Executive’s resignation, allow the Company at least 45 days from receipt of such written notice to cure such event, and if such event is not reasonably cured within such period, Executive must resign from all positions Executive then holds with the Company not later than 45 days after the expiration of the cure period.

6.2  Change in Control.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall have the definition set forth in the Carbylan BioSurgery, Inc. Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option Plan.

7. Proprietary Information Obligations.

7.1  Confidential Information Agreement.  As a condition of employment, Executive shall execute and abide by the Company’s standard form of Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

7.2  Third-Party Agreements and Information.  Executive represents and warrants that Executive’s employment by the Company does not conflict with any prior employment or consulting agreement or other agreement with any third party, and that Executive will perform Executive’s duties to the Company without violating any such agreement. Executive represents and warrants that Executive does not possess confidential information arising out of prior employment, consulting, or other third party relationships, that would be used in connection with Executive’s employment by the Company, except as expressly authorized by that third party. During Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive will use in the performance of Executive’s duties only information which is generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Executive’s own, common knowledge in the industry, otherwise legally in the public domain, or obtained or developed by the Company or by Executive in the course of Executive’s work for the Company.

8. Outside Activities During Employment.

8.1  Non-Company Business.  Except with the prior written consent of the Board, Executive will not during the term of Executive’s employment with the Company undertake or engage in any other employment, occupation or business enterprise, other than ones in which Executive is a passive investor. Executive may engage in civic and not-for-profit activities so long as such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. Executive may also serve on the Board of Directors of one (1) for-profit company (and be compensated in equity and cash for such service), provided such company is determined by the Board to not be directly competitive with the Company.

8.2  No Adverse Interests.  Executive agrees not to acquire, assume or participate in, directly or indirectly, any position, investment or interest known to be materially adverse to the Company, its business or prospects, financial or otherwise.

9. Non-Solicitation.  Executive agree that during the period of employment with the Company and for twelve (12) months after the date Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason, Executive will not, either directly or through others, solicit or encourage or attempt to solicit or encourage any employee, independent contractor, or consultant of the Company to terminate his or her relationship with the Company in order to become an employee, consultant or independent contractor to or for any other person or entity.

10. Dispute Resolution.  To ensure the timely and economical resolution of disputes that may arise in connection with Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive and the Company agree that any and all disputes, claims, or causes of action arising from or relating to the enforcement, breach, performance, negotiation, execution, or interpretation of this Agreement, Executive’s employment, or the termination of Executive’s employment, including but not limited to statutory claims, shall be

resolved to the fullest extent permitted by law by final, binding and confidential arbitration, by a single arbitrator, in Santa Clara County, California, conducted by JAMS, Inc. (“JAMS”) under the then applicable JAMS rules. By agreeing to this arbitration procedure, both Executive and the Company waive the right to resolve any such dispute through a trial by jury or judge or administrative proceeding. The Company acknowledges that Executive will have the right to be represented by legal counsel at any arbitration proceeding. The arbitrator shall: (a) have the authority to compel adequate discovery for the resolution of the dispute and to award such relief as would otherwise be permitted by law; and (b) issue a written arbitration decision, to include the arbitrator’s essential findings and conclusions and a statement of the award. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award any or all remedies that Executive or the Company would be entitled to seek in a court of law. The Company shall pay all JAMS’ arbitration fees in excess of the amount of court fees that would be required of the Executive if the dispute were decided in a court of law. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to prevent either Executive or the Company from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any such arbitration. Any awards or orders in such arbitrations may be entered and enforced as judgments in the federal and state courts of any competent jurisdiction.

11. General Provisions.
