Subject to the provisions of the following sentence, no indemnifying party shall be liable for settlement of any pending or threatened action or any claim whatsoever that is effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with its written consent, if its consent has been unreasonably withheld or delayed or if there be a judgment for the plaintiff in any such matter, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. In addition, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested that an indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated herein effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than forty-five (45) days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the request for reimbursement, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least thirty (30) days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

(d)                                 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 9(a) or Section 9(b), as applicable, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid, payable or otherwise incurred by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (or any action, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof), as incurred, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Placement Agent, on the other hand from the Offering, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) of this Section 9(d) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) of this Section 9(d) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent, on the other hand, with respect to the statements,

27

omissions, acts or failures to act which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (or any action, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent, on the other hand, with respect to the Offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total Placement Fee received by the Placement Agent in connection with the Offering, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Placement Agent, on the other hand, the relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement, omission, act or failure to act of the parties; provided that the parties hereto agree that the written information furnished to the Company by the Placement Agent for use in any part of any Preliminary Prospectus, any Statutory Prospectus as of any time, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Rules and Regulations, the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, consists solely of the Placement Agent’s Information as defined in Section 18. The Company and the Placement Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 9(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding referred to above in this Section 9(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 9(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against, or otherwise incurred in connection with, any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9(d), the Placement Agent shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total Placement Fee received by the Placement Agent exceeds the amount of any damages which such Placement Agent has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

10.                               Survival. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Placement Agent, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the Placement Agent or any controlling person of the Placement Agent, or the Company or any officer or director or controlling person of the Company and shall survive termination of this Agreement and delivery of and payment for the Offered Securities.

11.                               Termination. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason or, if for any reason, any Offered Securities are not delivered by or on behalf of the Company as provided herein, then the Company will reimburse the Placement Agent for all out-of-pocket expenses approved in writing by the Placement Agent, including fees and disbursements of outside counsel, reasonably incurred by the Placement Agent in making preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of the Offered Securities not so delivered, but the Company shall then be under no further liability to the Placement Agent except as provided in Sections 7 and 9 hereof.

12.                               Notices. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Company shall be delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to the address of the Company set forth in the Registration Statement and if to the Placement Agent shall be delivered or

28

sent by mail telex or facsimile transmission to the Placement Agent at Lazard Frères & Co. LLC, 30 Rockefeller Plaza, New York, New York 10112, Attention: Legal and Compliance Department.

In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Placement Agent is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Placement Agent to properly identify its clients.

This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Placement Agent, the Company and, to the extent provided in Sections 9 and 10 hereof, the officers and directors of the Company and each person who controls the Company or the Placement Agent, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Offered Securities shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

14.                               Time is of the Essence; Business Day. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement. As used herein, the term “business day” shall mean any day when the Commission’s office in Washington, D.C. is open for business.

15.                               Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent, on the other hand, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to the Offering, the Placement Agent is not the fiduciary of the Company, (iii) the Placement Agent has not assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the Offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Placement Agent has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (iv) the Company has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Company agrees that it will not claim that the Placement Agent has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to it, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

16.                               General. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) among the Company and the Placement Agent with respect to the subject matter hereof. In this Agreement, the masculine, feminine and neuter genders and the singular and the plural include one another. The section headings in this Agreement are for the convenience of the parties only and will not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.  This Agreement may be amended or modified, and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived, only by a writing signed by the Company and the Placement Agent.

17.                               Governing Law, Agent for Service and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, including without limitation Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law. No legal proceeding may be commenced, prosecuted or continued in any court other than the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, which courts shall have jurisdiction over the adjudication of such matters, and the Company and the Placement Agent each hereby consent to the jurisdiction of such courts and personal service with respect thereto. The Company and the Placement Agent each hereby waive all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The parties agree that a final judgment in any such legal proceeding brought in any such

29

court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company and the Placement Agent and may be enforced in any other courts in the jurisdiction of which the Company is or may be subject, by suit upon such judgment.

18.                               Placement Agent’s Information. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, for all purposes of this Agreement, the “Placement Agent’s Information” consists solely of the (i) the Placement Agent’s name and title as set forth on the front cover page; and (ii) the statements concerning the Placement Agent contained in the first paragraph under the heading “Plan of Distribution.”

19.                               Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of respective counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

20.                               Tax Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company is authorized to disclose to any persons the U.S. federal and state income tax treatment and tax structure of the potential transaction and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions and other tax analyses) provided to the Company relating to that treatment and structure, without the Placement Agent’s imposing any limitation of any kind. However, any information relating to the tax treatment and tax structure shall remain confidential (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent necessary to enable any person to comply with securities laws. For this purpose, “tax structure” is limited to any facts that may be relevant to that treatment.

If the foregoing is in accordance with the Company’s understanding, please sign and return to us a counterpart hereof, and upon the acceptance hereof by the Placement Agent, this letter and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement between the Placement Agent and the Company.

FORM OF LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

Lock-Up Agreement

October , 2018

Lazard Frères & Co. LLC

30 Rockefeller Plaza

New York, New York 10020

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Lock-Up Agreement is being delivered to you (the “Placement Agent”) in connection with the proposed Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) to be entered into by Verastem, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and you, with respect to the public offering (the “Offering”) of convertible senior notes of the Company (the “Offered Securities”) which shall be convertible into shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 (“Common Stock,” and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Offered Securities, the “Underlying Shares”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Placement Agent Agreement.

In order to induce you to enter into the Placement Agent Agreement, the undersigned agrees that, for a period (the “Lock-Up Period”) beginning on the date hereof and ending on, and including, the date that is 90 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the Offering, the undersigned will not, without your prior written consent, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) with respect to, any Common Stock or any other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, or any warrants or other rights to purchase, the foregoing, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (iii) publicly announce an intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii). The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (a) the registration of the offer and sale of Offered Securities and the Underlying Securities as contemplated by the Placement Agent Agreement and the sale of the Offered Securities in the Offering; (b) bona fide

gifts, provided the recipient thereof agrees in writing with the Placement Agent to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement; (c) dispositions to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned and/or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that such trust agrees in writing with the Placement Agent to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement; (d) dispositions to any corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity all of the beneficial ownership interests of which are held by the undersigned and/or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that such entity agrees in writing with the Placement Agent to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement; (e) dispositions by will, other testamentary document or intestate succession to the legal representative, heir, beneficiary or a member of the immediate family of the undersigned, provided the recipient thereof agrees in writing with the Placement Agent to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement; (f) distributions to partners, members or stockholders of the undersigned, provided that each distributee agrees in writing with the Placement Agent to be bound by the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement; (g) the exercise of options to purchase Common Stock outstanding as of the date hereof or granted under equity incentive plans in effect as of the date hereof or described in the registration statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Offering, provided that the underlying Common Stock continues to be subject to the terms of this Lock-Up Agreement and that no filing under the Exchange Act reporting a disposition of Common Stock to satisfy the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligations shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with such exercise; (h) the repurchase of Common Stock by the Company in connection with termination of the undersigned’s employment with the Company; (i) the entry into any trading plan established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, provided that such plan does not provide for any sales or other dispositions of Common Stock during the Lock-Up Period and no public announcement or public disclosure of entry into such plan is made or required to be made during the Lock-up Period; or (j) transactions relating to Common Stock acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering, provided that no filing under the Exchange Act reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Common Stock by the undersigned shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with such transactions. For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean the undersigned and the spouse, any lineal descendent, father, mother, brother or sister of the undersigned.

Furthermore, notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by this letter agreement, the undersigned may, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, dispose of shares of Common Stock so that the Company may retain and withhold from delivery to the undersigned that number of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the amount the Company has determined is required for satisfaction of any tax withholding obligations pursuant to any restricted stock unit award under any incentive plan of the Company at any time, provided that (w) the underlying shares of Common Stock shall continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this letter agreement, (x) the Company becomes the owner of the disposed shares of Common Stock, (y) (i) no filing by any person under the Exchange Act or other public disclosure of such disposal of shares shall be made other than any required filing by any person under the Exchange Act or other public disclosure required to be made by law or regulation (including, without limitation, any required Section 16 filing) in connection with such disposal of shares and (ii) any such required filing or other public disclosure on a Form 4 titled Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership of Securities shall disclose the payment of tax liability by delivering or withholding shares through the applicable transaction code in Column 3 of Table I of such Form 4 and a footnote indicating that the undersigned’s shares of Common Stock are

subject to a lock-up agreement with the Placement Agent, and, provided further, that the undersigned has provided the Placement Agent with written notice of such required filing or other public disclosure at least two business days prior to any such filing or other public disclosure, and (z) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock disposed pursuant to this paragraph by all officers and directors of the Company during the Lock-Up Period who are subject to a lock-up agreement with the Placement Agent shall not exceed $25,000.

If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, the undersigned further agrees that all of the foregoing provisions shall be equally applicable to any issuer-directed shares of Common Stock that the undersigned may purchase in the offering.

In addition, the undersigned hereby waives any rights the undersigned may have to require registration of Common Stock in connection with the filing of a registration statement relating to the Offering. The undersigned further agrees that, for the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent, make any demand for, or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, or warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or any such securities.

The undersigned hereby confirms that the undersigned has not, directly or indirectly, taken, and hereby covenants that the undersigned will not, directly or indirectly, take, any action designed, or which has constituted or will constitute or might reasonably be expected to cause or result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of shares of Common Stock.

The undersigned hereby authorizes the Company and its transfer agent, during the Lock- Up Period, to decline the transfer of or to note stop transfer restrictions on the stock register and other records relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities subject to this Lock-Up Agreement of which the undersigned is the record holder, and, with respect to shares of Common Stock or other securities subject to this Lock-Up Agreement of which the undersigned is the beneficial owner but not the record holder, the undersigned hereby agrees to cause such record holder to authorize the Company and its transfer agent, during the Lock-Up Period, to decline the transfer of or to note stop transfer restrictions on the stock register and other records relating to such shares or other securities.

If (i) the Company notifies you in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, (ii) the registration statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Offering is withdrawn, (iii) the Placement Agent Agreement does not become effective on or prior to October 31, 2018, or (iv) for any reason the Placement Agent Agreement shall be terminated, this Lock- Up Agreement shall be terminated and the undersigned shall be released from its obligations hereunder.
