ANACOR PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

2010 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

BINDING NOTICE OF AMENDMENT TO OUTSTANDING STOCK OPTION, RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARDS

February 3, 2015

Under the Anacor Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”) and the Company’s outstanding equity award agreements, the Company has the authority to make certain modifications and amendments to the terms of outstanding stock option, restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards granted to its employees.  Capitalized terms used in this notice of amendment without definition shall have the meanings set forth on Annex A hereto.

In connection with its annual review of the Company’s compensation programs, we are pleased to announce that the Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to amend all Continuing Awards to provide each Company employee holding such equity awards with the double-trigger vesting and settlement terms summarized below in the event the employment of such employee is terminated as a result of a Qualifying Termination in connection with a Change in Control.

Accordingly, the Company hereby notifies each employee that, effective as of February 3, 2015, the terms and conditions of each Continuing Award held by such employee have been modified to provide that each Continuing Award shall become fully vested, and fully exercisable or settled, as applicable, upon a Qualifying Termination of the Participant holding the Continuing Award. As a result, each Continuing Award, if any, held by such employee that is a:

(i)                                       Stock option award shall become fully vested and fully exercisable upon a Qualifying Termination of the Participant holding the Continuing Award and shall remain exercisable for the post-termination exercise period applicable to the vested stock option; and

(ii)                                    Restricted stock award or restricted stock unit award shall become fully vested and fully settled upon a Qualifying Termination of the Participant holding the Continuing Award.

Notwithstanding the foregoing (i) with respect to any Continuing Award that is, or becomes, subject to applicable award terms that provide more favorable vesting, exercise or settlement terms for the Participant, such Continuing Award shall be subject to both the terms described herein and such other applicable terms, applied with the maximum intended benefit for such Participant and (ii) if the accelerated settlement of any Continuing Award would constitute an event subjecting the settlement of the Continuing

Award to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A of the Code, then such Continuing Award shall become vested and non-forfeitable as provided above but shall be settled as of the applicable permitted settlement date in a manner that avoids the imposition of such additional tax, including any such previously specified settlement date(s) and/or the date immediately following any six-month delay prescribed under Section 409A of the Code, if applicable.

By acceptance of this binding notice of amendment, you acknowledge and agree that such binding notice of amendment shall (i) constitute a “written agreement” as referenced in the Plan amending the terms of your Continuing Awards, and (ii) with respect to the vesting, exercise and settlement, as applicable, of your Continuing Awards, supersede any provision less favorable to you set forth in any employment, severance or other similar written agreement between you and the Company (or any of its Affiliates).  Except as expressly modified by this binding notice of amendment of your Continuing Awards, your Continuing Awards shall continue to be governed in accordance with their terms.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has duly executed and delivered this binding notice of amendment to your applicable Award Agreement(s) as of February 3, 2015.
