Dear Richard,

This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into between Richard Tame (“you”) and Aurora Operations, Inc. (“Aurora” or “we”), effective as of the date signed below (the “Effective Date”), to confirm the terms and conditions of your employment with Aurora.

1.Title/Position. You will continue to serve as Aurora’s Chief Financial Officer. You also will continue to report to Aurora’s Chief Executive Officer and will perform the duties and responsibilities customary for such position and such other related duties as are lawfully assigned. By signing this Agreement, you confirm that you continue to have no contractual commitments or other legal obligations that would prohibit you from performing your duties for Aurora.

2.Base Salary. Your current annual base salary is $450,000, which will be payable, less any applicable withholdings, in accordance with Aurora’s normal payroll practices. Your annual base salary will be subject to review and adjustment from time to time by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Aurora Innovation, Inc., Aurora’s parent (“Parent”), as applicable, in its sole discretion.

3.Annual Bonus. Effective for the annual bonus paid in 2023, you will be eligible to receive a target annual bonus equal to 40% of the base salary you were paid by Aurora during the preceding calendar year. This bonus is payable in the sole discretion of the Committee, and will be determined based on your individual and Aurora’s overall performance. It will be subject to all applicable deductions and withholdings, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you must be employed by Aurora at the time the bonus is paid in order to be eligible to receive it. Your annual bonus opportunity and the applicable terms and conditions may be adjusted from time to time by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

In connection with your hiring, you received a signing bonus of $100,000, payable in 2 equal portions. You acknowledge and agree that if you resign or otherwise voluntarily end your employment with Aurora or if you are terminated for Cause, in each case, before the 2nd anniversary of your date of hire, then you must repay a pro-rated amount of $50,000, representing the second installment of the signing bonus. Pro-ration will be calculated as the fraction of whole months of completed employment during your 2nd year of employment with us. For purposes of your signing bonus, “Cause” means any of the following: (i) dishonesty, embezzlement, or misappropriation of assets or property of Aurora; (ii) gross negligence, misconduct, neglect of duties, theft, fraud, or breach of fiduciary duty to Aurora; (iii) continued failure to substantially perform your duties for Aurora after written notice specifying the performance failure(s) and the opportunity of thirty days to correct the performance failure(s); (iv) violation of federal or state securities laws; (v) material breach of an employment, consulting, or other agreement with Aurora; or (vi) conviction (including a plea of guilty or nolo contendere) of a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude.
