FORM OF SUPPORT AGREEMENT

This SUPPORT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of [·], 2017, is by and between Alpine Immune Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Person set forth on Schedule A (the “Stockholder”).

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Stockholder is the holder of the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of Nivalis Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Nivalis”), and/or options to purchase shares of Common Stock (“Options”), in each case, set forth opposite the Stockholder’s name on Schedule A (all such shares of Common Stock set forth on Schedule A, together with any shares of Common Stock that are issued upon exercise of Options or otherwise hereafter issued to or otherwise acquired or owned by the Stockholder prior to the termination of this Agreement being referred to herein as the “Subject Shares”);

WHEREAS, Nivalis, Nautilus Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Nivalis (“Merger Sub”), and the Company propose to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of the date hereof (the “Merger Agreement”), which provides, among other things, for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement); and

WHEREAS, as a condition to its willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Company has required that the Stockholder, and as an inducement and in consideration therefor, the Stockholder (in the Stockholder’s capacity as a holder of Subject Shares) has agreed to, enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth below and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, do hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

VOTING AGREEMENT; GRANT OF PROXY

The Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees that:

1.1. Voting of Subject Shares. At every meeting of the holders of Common Stock (the “Nivalis Stockholders”), however called, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof (or pursuant to a written consent if the Nivalis Stockholders act by written consent in lieu of a meeting), the Stockholder shall, solely to the extent that the Stockholder is the holder of record on any applicable record date to, be present (in person or by proxy) and to vote the Stockholder’s Subject Shares (a) in favor of (i) the approval of the Merger Agreement, (ii) the approval of the Contemplated Transactions, including the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (iii) if deemed necessary, the adoption of an amendment to Nivalis’ certificate of incorporation to effect the Nautilus Reverse Stock Split, (iv) the adoption of an amendment to Nivalis’ certificate of incorporation to change the name of Nivalis, (v) any proposal to adjourn or postpone the meeting to a later date, if there are not sufficient votes for the approval of the Merger Agreement and the Contemplated Transactions, including the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement on the date on which such meeting is held, and (vi) any other proposal included in the Proxy Statement in connection with, or related to, the consummation of the Merger for which the Nautilus Board has recommended that the Nivalis Stockholders vote in favor; and (b) against any competing Acquisition Proposal with respect to Nivalis.

1.2. No Inconsistent Arrangements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the Stockholder be restricted from transferring, selling, assigning, gifting or otherwise disposing of the Subject Shares or any interest therein.

1.3. Documentation and Information. The Stockholder shall permit and hereby authorizes the Company and Nivalis to publish and disclose in all documents and schedules filed with the SEC that the Company or Nivalis reasonably determines to be necessary in connection with the Merger and any transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the Stockholder’s identity and ownership of the Subject Shares and the nature of the Stockholder’s commitments and obligations under this Agreement. Nivalis is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 1.3.

1.4. Irrevocable Proxy. The Stockholder hereby revokes (or agrees to cause to be revoked) any proxies that the Stockholder has heretofore granted with respect to the Subject Shares. The Stockholder hereby irrevocably appoints the Company, and any individual designated in writing by it, as attorney-in-fact and proxy for and on behalf of the Stockholder, for and in the name, place and stead of the Stockholder, to: (a) attend any and all meetings of the Nivalis Stockholders, (b) vote, express consent or dissent or issue instructions to the record holder to vote the Stockholder’s Subject Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.1 at any and all meetings of the Nivalis Stockholders or in connection with any action sought to be taken by written consent of the Nivalis Stockholders without a meeting, in each case, solely to the extent that the Stockholder is the holder of record on any applicable record date, and (c) grant or withhold, or issue instructions to the record holder to grant or withhold, consistent with the provisions of Section 1.1, all written consents with respect to the Subject Shares at any and all meetings of the Nivalis Stockholders or in connection with any action sought to be taken by written consent without a meeting, in each case, solely to the extent that the Stockholder is the holder of record on any applicable record date. The Company agrees not to exercise the proxy granted herein for any purpose other than the purposes expressly described in this Agreement. The foregoing proxy shall be deemed to be a proxy coupled with an interest, is irrevocable (and as such shall survive and not be affected by the death, incapacity, mental illness or insanity of such Stockholder, as applicable) until the termination of the Merger Agreement and shall not be terminated by operation of law or upon the occurrence of any other event other than the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.2. The Stockholder authorizes such attorney and proxy to substitute any other Person to act hereunder, to revoke any substitution and to file this proxy and any substitution or revocation with the Secretary of Nivalis. The Stockholder hereby affirms that the proxy set forth in this Section 1.4 is given in connection with and granted in consideration of and as an inducement to the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement and that such proxy is given to secure the obligations of the Stockholder under Section 1.1. The proxy set forth in this Section 1.4 is executed and intended to be irrevocable, subject, however, to its automatic termination upon the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.2.

1.5. No Solicitation of Transactions. Without limiting and subject to the provisions of Section 4.14 hereof, the Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, knowingly take any action that Nivalis is not permitted to take pursuant to Section 4.4 of the Merger Agreement.

If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Body to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either party. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
