The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the Underwriter concerning the purchase and sale of the Securities, as follows:

If the Company has filed an abbreviated registration statement pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act (the “Rule 462 Registration Statement”), then any reference herein to the term “Registration Statement” shall be deemed to include such Rule 462 Registration Statement.

The Underwriter may exercise the option to purchase Option Shares at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, on or before the thirtieth day following the date of the Prospectus, by written notice from the Underwriter to the Company. Such notice shall set forth the aggregate number of Option Shares as to which the option is being exercised and the date and time when the Option Shares are to be delivered and paid for, which may be the same date and time as the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined) but shall not be earlier than the Closing Date nor later than the tenth full business day (as hereinafter defined) after the date of such notice (unless such time and date are postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 10 hereof). Any such notice shall be given at least two business days prior to the date and time of delivery specified therein.

The time and date of such payment for the Underwritten Securities is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”, and the time and date for such payment for the Option Shares, if other than the Closing Date, is herein referred to as the “Additional Closing Date”.

Payment for the Securities to be purchased on the Closing Date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, shall be made against delivery to the account of the Underwriter of the Securities to be purchased on such date or the Additional Closing Date, as the case may be, with any transfer taxes payable in connection with the sale of such Securities duly paid by the Company. Delivery of the Shares shall be made through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) unless the Underwriter shall otherwise instruct. The Warrants shall be delivered to the Underwriter in definitive form, registered in such names and in such denominations as the Underwriter shall request in writing not later than the Closing Date. The Warrants will be made available for inspection by the Underwriter on the business day prior to the Closing Date.

In the event that the purchasers of the Warrants in the public offering fail to make payment to the Company for all or part of the Warrants on the Closing Date, the Underwriter may elect, by written notice to the Company, to receive shares of Common Stock in lieu of all or a portion of such Warrants to be delivered to the Underwriter under this Agreement.

(d)            The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriter is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company with respect to the offering of Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company or any other person. Additionally, the Underwriter is not advising the Company or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriter shall not have any responsibility or liability to the Company with respect thereto.

7.            Indemnification and Contribution.

(a)            Indemnification of the Underwriter. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or proceeding or any claim asserted, as such fees and expenses are incurred), joint or several, that arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, any road show as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act (a “road show”) or any Pricing Disclosure Package (including any Pricing Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to the Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by the Underwriter expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriter consists of the information described as such in paragraph (b) below.

(b)            Indemnification of the Company. The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to the Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by the Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any road show or any Pricing Disclosure Package (including any Pricing Disclosure Package that has subsequently been amended), it being understood and agreed upon that the only such information furnished by the Underwriter consists of the following information in the Prospectus furnished on behalf of the Underwriter: the concession figure appearing in the fifth paragraph under the caption “Underwriting” and the information contained in the twelfth and thirteenth paragraphs relating to stabilizing transactions under the caption “Underwriting.”

(c)            Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under the preceding paragraphs of this Section 7. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable documented fees and expenses in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable documented fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Underwriter, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of the Underwriter shall be designated in writing by the Underwriter and any such separate firm for the Company, its directors, its officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(d)           Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) or (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter on the other, from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter on the other, shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (after deducting underwriting discounts but before deducting expenses) received by the Company from the sale of the Securities and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter in connection therewith, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, compared to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter on the other, 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 or by the Underwriter and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e)            Limitation on Liability. The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to paragraph (d) above were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any reasonable documented legal or other reasonable documented expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim.

10.          Reserved.

Re:         Replimune Group, Inc. — Public Offering

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that Leerink Partners LLC (the “Underwriter”) propose to enter into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Replimune Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) by the Underwriter of Common Stock (as defined below) and pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Securities”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

In consideration of the Underwriter’s agreement to purchase and make the Public Offering of the Securities, and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Underwriter, the undersigned will not, during the period beginning on the date of this letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) and ending 45 days after the date of the final prospectus supplement relating to the Public Offering (the “Prospectus”) (such period, the “Restricted Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (including without limitation, Common Stock or such other securities which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and securities which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant), or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, (2) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock or such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise or (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, in each case other than:

(A) transactions relating to shares of Common Stock or other securities that the undersigned may purchase in the Public Offering (provided that the undersigned is not an officer or director of the Company) or in open market transactions during the Restricted Period,

(B) the exercise, including by “net” exercise, of any options or warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock, the conversion of any convertible security into Common Stock or vesting of any restricted stock units, each as described in the registration statement related to the Public Offering, or issued pursuant to an equity plan described in the registration statement related to the Public Offering, it being understood that any shares of Common Stock received by the undersigned upon such exercise, conversion or vesting shall be subject to the restrictions on transfers set forth in this Letter Agreement; provided that any filing required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), shall clearly indicate in the codes and footnotes thereto that any disposition of shares in connection with a “net” exercise was made solely to the Company,

(C) the sale or transfer to the Company of such number of shares of Common Stock acquired by the undersigned in connection with the exercise of such options or warrants on a “net” exercise basis or the vesting of restricted stock units described in the foregoing clause; provided that any filing required under the Exchange Act shall clearly indicate in the codes and footnotes thereto that such sale or transfer, as applicable, is in connection with a “net” exercise was made solely to the Company,

(D) the sale or transfer to the Company of such number of shares of Common Stock necessary to generate only such amount of cash needed for the payment of taxes (including estimated taxes) due as a result of the exercise of such options or warrants or the vesting of restricted stock units described in clause (C); provided that any filing required under the Exchange Act shall clearly indicate in the codes and footnotes thereto that such sale or transfer, as applicable, is for the purpose of satisfying tax obligations,

(E) transfers of shares of Common Stock or such other securities as a bona fide gift or gifts (including without limitation to a charitable organization) or pursuant to a negotiated divorce settlement,

(F) transfers by operation of law, including pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order,

(G) distributions or transfers of shares of Common Stock or other securities to subsidiaries, limited or general partners, members, managers, managing members, officers, directors, employees, stockholders or affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 405 as promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of, or any investment fund or other entity that controls or manages, the undersigned or the undersigned’s affiliates (as defined above) or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the undersigned or under common control of the undersigned, or if the undersigned is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a “Mutual Fund”), pursuant to a merger or reorganization with or into another Mutual Fund that shares the same investment adviser registered pursuant to the requirements of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended,

(H) transfers of shares of Common Stock or other securities to any immediate family member, trusts for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or one or more of the immediate family members of the undersigned or any of their successors upon death, or any partnerships or limited liability company, the partners or members of which consist of or are for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned and/or immediate family members or other dependent of the undersigned (for purposes of this Letter Agreement, “immediate family” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin),

(I) if the undersigned is a trust, transfers to a trustor or beneficiary of the trust,

(J) transfers or dispositions of shares of Common Stock or such other securities by will, other testamentary document or intestate succession to the legal representative, heir, beneficiary or a member of the immediate family of the undersigned in a transaction not involving a disposition for value,

(K) conversion of preferred stock into shares of Common Stock in connection with the consummation of the Public Offering, it being understood that any such shares of Common Stock received by the undersigned upon such conversion shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Letter Agreement, and

(L) transfers of shares of Common Stock made pursuant to a contract, instruction or plan adopted pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act (a “Plan”) prior to the date hereof; provided that (1) no amendment, waiver or other modification shall be made to any such Plan during the Restricted Period and (2) any filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act that is made in connection with any such transfers during the Restricted Period shall state (x) that such transfers have been executed under a trading plan adopted pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act and (y) the date of adoption of such plan, provided that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (E), (G), (H), (I) or (J), each donee or distributee shall execute and deliver to the Underwriter a lock-up letter in the form of this Letter Agreement; and provided, further, that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clauses (A), (E) and (G) through (I), no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Exchange Act or other public announcement reporting a reduction in the beneficial ownership shall be required or shall be made voluntarily in connection with such transfer or distribution (other than a filing on a Form 5, Schedule 13G (or 13G/A) or 13F made after the expiration of the Restricted Period referred to above).

In addition, the foregoing paragraph shall not apply to the establishment of a Plan by the undersigned after the date hereof for the sale or transfer of shares of Common Stock; provided that such Plan does not provide for the sale or transfer of Common Stock during the Restricted Period and, no public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or is voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company regarding such Plan.

The restrictions contained herein shall not apply to any transfers, sales, tenders or other dispositions of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other similar transaction that is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and made to or involving all holders of the Common Stock or such other securities pursuant to a change of control of the ownership of the Company (including, without limitation, the entry into any lock-up, voting or similar agreement pursuant to which the undersigned may agree to transfer, sell, tender or otherwise dispose of Common Stock or other such securities in connection with any such transaction, or vote any securities in favor of any such transaction); provided that if such bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other similar transaction is not completed, any Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock subject to this Letter Agreement shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this Letter Agreement. For purposes of this Letter Agreement, “change of control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, other than the Company, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of 50% of total voting power of the voting stock of the Company.

If any percentage of the Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock held by any person or entity other than the undersigned that is subject to a lock-up agreement related to the Public Offering similar in form to this Letter Agreement is released from any restrictions set forth in such lock-up agreement, the same percentage (relative to the total holdings of the stockholder being released from such restrictions) of the Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock held by the undersigned shall be immediately and fully released from any remaining restrictions on transfer set forth in this Letter Agreement concurrently therewith; provided, however, that the Underwriter will not be obligated to release the undersigned from the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Letter Agreement unless the Underwriter has first released more than 1%, in the aggregate, of the Company’s total outstanding shares of Common Stock (calculated on an as-converted basis pre-Public Offering) from such restrictions; provided that directors and officers may be released from such restrictions solely due to financial hardship as determined by the Underwriter in its sole judgment. In the event that, as a result of this paragraph, the undersigned is released from any of its obligations under this Letter Agreement or, by virtue of this Letter Agreement, becomes entitled to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock prior to the date that is 45 days after the date of the Prospectus, the Underwriter shall notify the Company within one (1) business day of the effective date of such release, and the Company, in turn, in consultation with Leerink Partners LLC shall notify the undersigned within two (2) business days thereafter.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company, and any duly appointed transfer agent for the registration or transfer of the securities described herein, are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Letter Agreement.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Letter Agreement. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs or personal representatives of the undersigned.

The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriter has not provided any recommendation or investment advice nor has the Underwriter solicited any action from the undersigned with respect to the Public Offering of the Securities and the undersigned has consulted their own legal, accounting, financial, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent deemed appropriate. The undersigned further acknowledges and agrees that, although the Underwriter may be required or choose to provide certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures to you in connection with the Public Offering, the Underwriter is not making a recommendation to you to enter into this Letter Agreement and nothing set forth in such disclosures is intended to suggest that the Underwriter is making such a recommendation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if (1) the Company files an application with the Commission to withdraw the registration statement relating to the Public Offering, (2) the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective by December 31, 2024, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Common Stock to be sold thereunder, (3) the Underwriter advises the Company, or the Company advises the Underwriter, in writing, prior to the execution of the Underwriting Agreement, that they have determined not to proceed with the Public Offering or (4) the closing of the Public Offering shall not have occurred on or before December 31, 2024, then, in each case the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Letter Agreement. The undersigned understands that the Underwriter is entering into the Underwriting Agreement and proceeding with the Public Offering in reliance upon this Letter Agreement.

This Letter Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Letter Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

	Very truly yours,
