AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (this “Agreement”) is made as of August 4, 2006 (the “Execution Date”) by and among OMEROS CORPORATION, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Washington (“Parent”), EPSILON ACQUISITION CORPORATION, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Merger Sub”), NURA, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Company”), and Arch Venture Corporation, as stockholders’ agent (“Stockholders’ Agent”). As used in this Agreement, certain initial capitalized terms shall have the meanings set forth in Exhibit A.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the boards of directors of Parent, Merger Sub and Company each have determined that the acquisition of Company by Parent through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Company pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein (the “Merger”) is in the best interests of their respective companies and shareholders and have approved the Merger and the related transactions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, Merger Sub is a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger, each outstanding share of capital stock of Company shall be cancelled;

WHEREAS, the parties hereto intend that the Merger shall qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall be, and hereby is, adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Section 368(a) of the Code;

WHEREAS, in order to induce Company to enter into this Agreement certain holders of Company’s capital stock representing in the aggregate in excess of 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Voting Common Stock and in excess of 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company Preferred Stock, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, have entered into a voting agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Voting Agreement”); and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and representations set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1
THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Company, which shall be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) in the Merger, and the separate existence of Merger Sub shall thereupon cease. The name of the Surviving Corporation shall remain “Nura, Inc.” The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Delaware Corporate Law”) as further described in Section 1.3.

1.2 Closing; Effective Time. The closing of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall take place as soon as practicable, but not later than August 8, 2006; provided, that the Closing shall not occur prior to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Article 6 hereof or at such other time as the parties hereto agree in writing (the date upon which the Closing occurs, the “Closing Date”). The Closing shall take place at the offices of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, P.C., 701 Fifth Avenue, Suite 5100, Seattle, Washington, or at such other location as the parties hereto agree. In connection with the Closing, the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing at the Closing a certificate of merger, substantially in the form to be attached hereto as Exhibit C and as acceptable for filing (the “Certificate of Merger”), together with any required certificates or other documents, with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in accordance with the relevant provisions of Delaware Corporate Law (the time of such filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware is the “Effective Time”).

1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of Delaware Corporate Law; provided that in the event of any conflict between this Agreement or the Certificate of Merger and Delaware Corporate Law, Delaware Corporate Law shall prevail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

1.4 Certificate of Incorporation; Bylaws.

(a) At and from the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated to be identical to the certificate of incorporation of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the name of the Surviving Corporation shall be identical to the name of Company in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, until such certificate of incorporation is thereafter amended as provided by Delaware Corporate Law and such certificate of incorporation.

(b) At and from the Effective Time, the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall be amended and restated to be identical to the bylaws of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the name of the Surviving Corporation as set forth therein shall be identical to the name of Company in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, until such

-2-

bylaws are amended as provided therein, by Delaware Corporate Law and as may be provided in the Surviving Corporation’s certificate of incorporation.

(c) At and from the Effective Time, the directors of Merger Sub, as in office immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified. At and from the Effective Time, the officers of Merger Sub, as in office immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the officers of the Surviving Corporation until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified.

(d) Qualification as a Reorganization. The Parties intend that the Merger qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall be, and is hereby, adopted as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Section 368(a) of the Code.

ARTICLE 2
MERGER CONSIDERATION; EFFECT OF MERGER ON COMPANY CAPITAL STOCK

2.1 Merger Consideration; Exchange of Capital Stock.

(a) By virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Company, Merger Sub or the holders of any of Company’s securities, at the Effective Time, and notwithstanding any provision of Company’s certificate of incorporation, each and every share of capital stock of Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Company Stock”) shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the merger consideration set forth herein.

(b) The merger consideration shall consist of (i) subject to the escrow holdback provisions set forth in Section 8.1(g), 0.12885103 shares of Parent’s Series E Preferred Stock (“Parent Preferred Stock”) issued to each holder of one share of Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (“Company Preferred Stock”); (ii) 0.00037569 shares of Parent’s Common Stock (“Parent Common Stock,” together with Parent Preferred Stock, the “Parent Stock”) issued to each holder of one share of Company Preferred Stock, and (iii) 0.00922672 shares of Parent Common Stock issued to each holder of one share of Company’s voting Common Stock (“Company Voting Common Stock”)(collectively, the “Merger Consideration”). The Merger Consideration shall be allocated as set forth in Schedule 2.1.

2.2 Assumption of Stock Options; Other Equity Interest; Oxford Indebtedness.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of options and other awards then outstanding under Company’s 2003 Stock Plan (the “Company Stock Awards”), each Company Stock Award outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by Parent and each Company Stock Award shall become an option to acquire shares of Parent Common Stock, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the Company Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, except (i) that such assumed Company Stock Award shall be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Parent

-3-

Common Stock equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock) obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Company Voting Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such Company Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time by 0.00922672, and (ii) that the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Awards shall be equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing the exercise price per share of the Company Voting Common Stock for which the Company Stock Award was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by 0.00922672. The form and substance of any communications to holders of Common Stock Awards from the Company shall be subject to advance review and approval of Parent, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall have taken such actions prior to or as of the Effective Time as are reasonable and appropriate to effect the provisions of this Section 2.2, including, without limitation, (1) taking such actions as may be required to confirm that Parent’s Board of Directors shall, effective as of the Effective Time, become the administrator of the Plan with respect to the assumed Company Stock Awards, and (2) furnishing to holders of Company Stock Awards a description of the treatment of such options in connection with the Merger.

(c) At or prior to Closing, Company shall cause all Equity Interests (other than the Company Stock Awards and the warrant to purchase 175,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company issued to Oxford Financing Corporation in connection with the Oxford Loan (the “Oxford Warrant”)) in or related to Company, including the outstanding Convertible Promissory Notes (defined below) and outstanding Series A Warrants and other rights, if any, exercisable for Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock (collectively, “Other Equity Interests”), to be exercised or converted, as applicable and in accordance with the terms and conditions on which such Other Equity Interests have been granted by Company (as amended), or if not so exercised or converted, to be terminated and extinguished prior to or upon Closing without Liability or obligation on the part of Surviving Corporation. In furtherance of the foregoing, to the extent applicable, the Company shall use best efforts to cause the outstanding Other Equity Interests (including the Convertible Promissory Notes and/or Series A Warrants) to be amended in a manner reasonably acceptable to Parent to provide that they will automatically convert into equity of Company at or prior to the Merger. Company shall use its best efforts to obtain and deliver to Parent prior to Closing duly executed termination and release agreements or similar written agreements, contingent upon Closing as applicable, with respect to all Other Equity Interests that do not automatically exercise, convert or otherwise terminate upon the Merger by their express terms.

(d) The outstanding indebtedness of Company to Oxford Finance Corporation under the Master Security Agreement dated as of April 26, 2005 shall continue to be an obligation of the Surviving Corporation (the “Oxford Loan”).

2.3 Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent as the holder thereof, each share of the common stock, no par value per share, of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of the common stock of the Surviving Corporation. This common stock shall be the only outstanding

-4-

capital stock of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time, and shall be solely owned by Parent.

2.4 Appraisal Rights. Any shares held by stockholders who elect to demand the appraisal of such stockholders’ shares in Company (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration as set forth in Section 2.1 but shall instead be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to Delaware Corporate Law. Company shall give Parent (a) prompt notice of any written demand for appraisal received by Company pursuant to Delaware Corporate Law, (b) the opportunity to control all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands and (c) the opportunity to review and comment on all appraisal rights notices and other communications to the stockholders of Company with respect to appraisal rights. Company agrees that, except with the prior written consent of Parent, or as required under Delaware Corporate Law, it will not voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand. Each holder of Dissenting Shares (each a “Dissenting Stockholder”) who, pursuant to the provisions of Delaware Corporate Law, becomes entitled to payment of the fair value of such shares of Company’s capital stock shall receive payment therefor (but only after the value thereof shall have been agreed upon or finally determined pursuant to the provisions of Delaware Corporate Law), with interest paid thereon only to the extent required by Delaware Corporate Law. If, after the Effective Time, any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as Dissenting Shares, Parent shall issue and deliver, upon surrender by the holder of the certificate or certificates representing such shares of Company capital stock as set forth in Section 2.5, the consideration, if any, to which such shareholder would otherwise be entitled pursuant to Section 2.1 with respect to such shares.

2.5 Mechanics of Exchange.

(a) Prior to Closing, Company and Parent shall cause to be mailed to each holder of record (as of the Effective Time) of a certificate or certificates, which immediately prior to the Effective Time shall have represented the outstanding shares of Company Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock (the “Company Stock Certificates”), (i) a letter of transmittal in a form to be mutually agreed upon by Parent and Company promptly following the date of this Agreement (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Company Stock Certificates in exchange for the portion of the Merger Consideration payable upon surrender of said Company Stock Certificates. Following the Effective Time, and upon surrender of Company Stock Certificates for cancellation to Parent, together with such Letter of Transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, each holder of Company Stock Certificates shall be entitled to surrender its Company Stock Certificates to Parent for cancellation in exchange for such holder’s right to receive, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1. It shall be a condition of any holder’s receipt of any Merger Consideration that Company Stock Certificates representing such holder’s capital stock be surrendered to Parent, properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer, or that such holder comply with Section 2.5(d).

-5-

(b) Attached hereto as Schedule 2.5(b) is a list, addressed to Parent and certified by the Company as true and correct, of the holders of capital stock of the Company (the “Certified Stockholder List”). At the Closing, Company shall deliver an update to the Certified Stockholder List, addressed to Parent and certified by the Company as true and correct, reflecting the holders of capital stock of the Company at the time of the Closing (the “Final Certified Stockholder List”). After the date hereof, Company shall consult with Parent prior to transferring shares of Company Stock Certificates on the records of Company. Parent shall be entitled to rely upon the Final Certified Stockholder List to establish the identity of those persons entitled to receive Merger Consideration specified in this Agreement, which Final Certified Stockholder List shall be conclusive with respect thereto. In the event of a dispute with respect to ownership of stock represented by any Company Stock Certificates, Parent shall be entitled to deposit any Merger Consideration in respect thereof in escrow with an independent third party and thereafter be relieved with respect to any claims thereto.

(c) Following the Effective Time and upon receipt of any Company Stock Certificate(s) pursuant to this Section 2.5, Parent shall deliver or cause to be delivered to such holder presenting such Company Stock Certificate(s) the Merger Consideration as calculated pursuant to Section 2.1 and Schedule 2.1.

(d) In the event that any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder claiming such Company Stock Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent will deliver or cause to be delivered, in accordance with and subject to this Section 2.5 and the other terms and conditions hereof, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate, the applicable portion of such holder’s Merger Consideration for which the capital stock represented by such certificate has been cancelled and exchanged pursuant to Section 2.1. When authorizing such payment in exchange therefor, Parent may in its discretion require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate to give Parent a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity, or such other form of indemnity, as Parent shall reasonably direct, against any claim that may be made against Parent with respect to Company Stock Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(e) Parent may, at its option, meet its obligations under this Section 2.5 through a bank, trust company or other third party reasonably selected by Parent to act as exchange agent in connection with the Merger.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Parent nor any other party hereto shall be liable to a holder of Company capital stock for any portion of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable escheat laws following the passage of time specified therein.

2.6 No Further Rights in Shares. After the Effective Time, holders of Company Stock Certificates shall cease to have rights with respect to Company capital stock previously represented by such certificates, and their sole rights (other than such rights as they may have as Dissenting Stockholders under the applicable provisions of Delaware Corporate Law) shall be to exchange such certificates for the Merger Consideration, as set forth in Section 2.1.

-6-

2.7 No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither certificates nor scrip for fractional shares of Parent Stock shall be issued in the Merger. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, Parent shall pay cash equal to the fraction of a share that such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive in the Merger multiplied by the fair market value of a share of Parent Common Stock at the time of Closing as determined by Parent’s Board of Directors.

2.8 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or reasonably desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right to, title to and possession of all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation are fully authorized in the name and on the behalf of Company or the Surviving Corporation or otherwise to take, and shall take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

2.9 Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) Attached as Schedule 2.9 is a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of Company attaching a statement setting forth Company’s reasonable, good faith estimate of (i) the amount of all current liabilities (calculated in accordance with GAAP) of Company (excluding (i) the current portion of the outstanding principal of and interest on Company’s indebtedness under the Oxford Loan, (ii) the lease payments related to the Company’s facility at 1124 Columbia Street, Seattle, Washington that accrue after the Closing (but not including any amount arising from rental periods prior to Closing), (iii) the Company Expenses (defined below) and (iv) the Employee Payments (defined below)) outstanding at the Closing (collectively, the “Current Liabilities”), (ii) the amount of all Company Expenses and (iii) the amount of any bonuses, severance or back pay paid within six (6) months prior to the Closing and any bonuses, severance or back pay owing or accrued as of the Closing to employees of or consultants to Company, all amounts payable pursuant to the agreements set forth on Section 3.9(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule and all amounts set forth on Section 3.14(f) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (it being understood that amounts set forth on Section 3.14(f) of the Company Disclosure Schedule that are payable to Mark Benjamin shall be included unless both (a) Mr. Benjamin has entered into the amendment of his employment agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D and (b) Mr. Benjamin is hired as an employee of Parent or its subsidiaries within thirty (30) days of the Closing of this Agreement) (collectively, “Employee Payments”).

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, and in any event within ninety calendar days thereafter, Parent shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Stockholders’ Agent a statement (the “Adjustment Statement”) setting forth the actual (i) Current Liabilities, (ii) Company Expenses, (iii) Employee Payments and (iv) the Adjustment Amount (defined below).

(c) The “Adjustment Amount” means the sum of the following amounts (provided, if the sum of such amounts is a negative number, the Adjustment Amount shall equal zero):

-7-

(i) the amount by which the actual Current Liabilities as of the Closing exceed the greater of (x) $300,000 and (y) the estimated Current Liabilities shown on Schedule 2.9, if any;

(ii) minus, if both the estimated Current Liabilities shown on Schedule 2.9 and the actual Current Liabilities exceeded $300,000, the amount by which the estimated Current Liabilities shown on Schedule 2.9 exceed the actual Current Liabilities, if any;

(iii) plus, the amount by which the actual Company Expenses exceed the greater of (x) $50,000 and (y) the estimated Company Expenses shown on Schedule 2.9, if any;

(iv) minus, if both the estimated Company Expenses shown on Schedule 2.9 and the actual Company Expenses exceeded $50,000, the amount by which the estimated Company Expenses shown on Schedule 2.9 exceed the actual Company Expenses, if any; and

(v) plus, any Employee Payments that were not shown on Schedule 2.9.

(d) Following the delivery of the Adjustment Statement to the Stockholders’ Agent, Parent shall provide the Stockholders’ Agent with access to the records of the Surviving Corporation, as the Stockholders’ Agent may reasonably request in a manner not unreasonably disruptive to the Surviving Corporation’s business, during normal business hours and solely for the purpose of reviewing the Adjustment Statement and determining the Adjustment Amount in accordance with this Agreement.

(e) If Stockholders’ Agent disagrees with the Adjustment Amount, then within 45 calendar days after its receipt of the Adjustment Statement, it shall notify Parent of such disagreement in writing (the “Notice of Disagreement”), setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement. To be effective, any such Notice of Disagreement shall include a copy of the Adjustment Statement setting forth Parent’s determination of the Adjustment Amount marked to indicate those specific line items that are in dispute (the “Disputed Line Items”) and shall be accompanied by the Stockholders’ Agent’s calculation of each of the Disputed Line Items and the Stockholders’ Agent’s revised Adjustment Statement setting forth its determination of the Adjustment Amount. To the extent the Stockholders’ Agent provides a Notice of Disagreement within such 45 calendar day period, all items that are not Disputed Line Items shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. If the Stockholders’ Agent does not provide a Notice of Disagreement within such forty five calendar day period, the Stockholders’ Agent shall be deemed to have accepted in full the Adjustment Amount as determined by Parent, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. If any Notice of Disagreement is timely provided and contains the proper information as aforesaid, Parent and the Stockholders’ Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts for a period of 45 calendar days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any Disputed Line Items. During such 45 calendar day period, Parent and the Stockholders’ Agent shall have access to the working papers, schedules and calculations of the other used in the preparation of the Adjustment Statement and the Notice of Disagreement and the determination of the Adjustment Amount and Disputed Line Items. If, at the end of such period, they are unable to resolve such Disputed Line Items, an independent accounting firm of recognized

-8-

national standing as may be mutually selected by Parent and the Stockholders’ Agent (the “Auditor”), shall resolve any remaining Disputed Line Items. Within 15 days of the end of such 45 day period set forth above, Parent and the Stockholders’ Agent will enter into such reasonable and customary arrangements for the services to be rendered by the Auditor under this Section 2.9 which the Auditor may reasonably request. The Auditor shall determine as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 30 calendar days from the date that the dispute is submitted to it), whether the Adjustment Statement and the Adjustment Amount were prepared or determined, as applicable, in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 2.9(a), (b) and (c) and whether and to what extent (if any) the Adjustment Amount requires adjustment, limiting its review, however, only to the Disputed Line Items so submitted. If the Auditor’s resolution of the Disputed Line Items directly impacts other line items which are not Disputed Line Items, such line items shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the resolution of the Disputed Line Items by the Auditor pursuant to this Section 2.9(e). The Surviving Corporation and the Stockholders’ Agent shall each furnish to the Auditor such workpapers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Auditor may request. The determination of the Auditor shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. The date on which the Adjustment Amount is finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.9(e) is hereinafter referred as to the “Determination Date.” The fees and expenses of the Auditor shall be allocated between Parent and Stockholders’ Agent in the same proportion that the total dollar amount of the Disputed Line Items submitted to the Auditor that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Auditor) bears to the total dollar amount of the Disputed Line Items so submitted by each such party.

(f) If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then within two Business Days following the Determination Date, the number of shares of Parent Preferred Stock having a value equal to the Adjustment Amount (valuing the Parent Preferred Stock at $5.00 per share) shall be released to Parent from the Escrow Fund (as defined in Section 8.1(g) below).

2.10 Withholding Rights. Parent, Company or Merger Sub shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payments under the provisions of any applicable Tax laws. Any such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

ARTICLE 3
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF COMPANY

Company represents and warrants, as of the date hereof and the Closing, to and for the benefit of Parent (except, with respect to any particular section or subsection of this Article 3, to the extent specifically described in the corresponding section or subsection of Schedule 3 (the “Company Disclosure Schedule”), it being understood and agreed that Company will use good faith efforts to provide conspicuous cross-references for each description of an exception that may relate to more than one representation or warranty but that any disclosure set forth in any section of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall constitute disclosure for any other section of the Company

Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under Delaware Corporate Law and has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business.

Company understands that the shares of Parent capital stock to be issued in the Merger have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent of Company’s stockholders. Company understands that the shares of Parent capital stock are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, Company’s stockholders must hold the shares of Parent capital stock indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. Company acknowledges that Parent has no obligation to register or qualify the shares of Parent capital stock for resale except for those individuals party to, and to the extent provided in, Parent’s Investors’ Rights Agreement. Company further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the shares of Parent capital stock, and on requirements relating to Company which are outside of Company’s control, and which Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

Neither the execution or delivery of the Transaction Agreements, nor the carrying on of Parent’s business by the employees of Parent, nor the conduct of Parent’s business as proposed, will, to Parent’s knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions, or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any such employee is now obligated. Parent does not believe it is or will be necessary to use any inventions of any of its employees (or persons it currently intends to hire) made prior to their employment by Parent.

No Parent Employee Plan provides health benefits that are not fully insured through an insurance contract.

(e) No Post-Employment Obligations. No Parent Employee Plan provides, or reflects or represents any liability to provide post-termination or retiree welfare benefits to any person for any reason, except as may be required by COBRA or other applicable statute, and neither Parent nor any Parent ERISA Affiliate has ever represented, promised or contracted (whether in oral or written form) to any Parent Employee (either individually or to Parent Employees as a group) or any other person that such Parent Employee(s) or other person would be provided with post-termination or retiree welfare benefits, except to the extent required by statute.

4.18 Tax Returns, Payments and Elections. Each of Parent and Merger Sub has timely filed all Tax Returns as required by law. These Tax Returns are true and correct in all material respects.

Parent has not engaged in a “reportable transaction,” as set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.6011-4(b), or any transaction that is the same as or substantially similar to one of the types of transactions that the Internal Revenue Service has determined to be a tax avoidance transaction and identified by notice, regulation, or other form of published guidance as a “listed transaction,” as set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.6011-4(b)(2).

There is no strike or other labor dispute involving Parent or Merger Sub pending, or to the knowledge of Parent or Merger Sub threatened, which could have a Parent Material Adverse Effect, nor is Parent or Merger Sub aware of any labor organization activity involving its employees. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub is aware that any officer or key employee, or that any group of key employees, intends to terminate their employment with Parent or Merger Sub, nor do Parent or Merger Sub have a present intention to terminate the employment of any of the foregoing. The employment of each officer and employee of Parent or Merger Sub is terminable at the will of each of Parent or Merger Sub, respectively. To its knowledge, each of Parent and Merger Sub has complied in all material respects with all applicable state and federal equal employment opportunity laws and with other laws related to employment.

4.21 Permits. Parent, Merger Sub and each of its subsidiaries has all franchises, permits, licenses and any similar authority necessary for the conduct of its business, the lack of which could have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

-35-

4.25 Restrictions on Business Activities. There is no agreement (noncompete or otherwise), commitment, judgment, injunction, order or decree to which Parent is a party or otherwise binding upon Parent, which has or may reasonably be expected to have the effect of materially prohibiting or impairing any business practice of Parent, any acquisition of property (tangible or intangible) by Parent, the conduct of business by Parent or otherwise limiting the freedom of Parent or its affiliates to engage in any line of business or to compete with any Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent has not entered into any agreement under which Parent is restricted from selling, licensing or otherwise distributing any of its technology or products to, or providing services to, customers or potential customers or any class of customers, in any geographic area, during any period of time or in any segment of the market.

-44-

to be Section 280G Payments, and prior to the Effective Time Company shall deliver to Parent evidence satisfactory to Parent that (A) a vote of the stockholders of Company was solicited in conformance with Section 280G and the regulations promulgated thereunder and the requisite stockholder approval was obtained with respect to any payments and/or benefits that were subject to the stockholder vote (the “280G Stockholder Approval”), or (B) that the 280G Stockholder Approval was not obtained and as a consequence, that such payments and/or benefits shall not be made or provided to the extent they would cause any amounts to constitute Section 280G Payments, pursuant to the waivers of those payments and/or benefits, which were executed by the affected individuals prior to the stockholder vote.

Any claims as to which written notice identifying such claim and the basis thereof with reasonable specificity shall have been delivered pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement on or prior to such date shall survive until such claims are resolved. All representations and warranties of Parent and Merger Sub in this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement (i) shall survive the Closing, any investigation at any time made and the consummation of the Merger and (ii) shall terminate and expire at the end of eighteen (18) months following Closing; provided that any claims resulting from fraud or intentional misrepresentation shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations.

The Indemnifying Parties shall bear the burden of proving such actual and specific knowledge on the part of Parent and whether Losses were foreseeable by Parent. If and to the extent Company has, as a result of its own investigation, actual and specific knowledge as of the Closing of the breach or failure to be true of any representation or warranty of Parent or Merger Sub set forth in Article IV of this Agreement (a “Known Parent Breach”) and as a direct result of such Known Parent Breach Company could terminate this Agreement pursuant to subclauses (i) or (ii) of Section 7.1(b), then following the Closing none of the Company, the Stockholders Agent (whether on behalf of itself or any other Person) or any of their Affiliates will be entitled to bring a claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation in connection with this Agreement in respect of Losses that were foreseeable by Company at the time of Closing to the extent such Losses arose directly out of such Known Parent Breach; provided, however, that this sentence will not apply to the extent Parent also has, as of the Closing, actual and specific knowledge of such breach or failure to be true of such representation and warranty. Parent shall bear the burden of proving such actual and specific knowledge on the part of Company and whether Losses were foreseeable by Company. Except as provided in this Section 8.1(b), the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement (and any right to indemnification for breach thereof or other right to indemnification hereunder) shall not be affected by any investigation, verification or examination by any party hereto or by any representative or employee of any such party or by any such party’s knowledge or the knowledge of any such

-52-

representative or employee of any facts with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of any such representation or warranty.

(c) Covenants. The covenants and agreements of the parties shall survive the Closing and any investigation at any time made and the consummation of the Merger until fully performed, unless limited by their terms or purposes.

(d) Effect of Expiration. On expiration or termination of the representations, warranties and covenants described in subsection (a) and (c) above shall be of no further force or effect, and no claims for indemnification may be brought, except with respect to any claim for indemnification hereunder as to which written notice identifying such claim and the basis thereof with reasonable specificity shall have been delivered pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement on or prior to such expiration or termination.

(e) Indemnity. The holders of Company Preferred Stock as of immediately prior to the Merger ( the “Indemnifying Parties”) shall severally (on a pro rata basis) indemnify and hold harmless Parent, the Surviving Corporation and their Affiliates, shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all Losses, whether or not arising out of third party claims, if such aggregate Losses exceed $50,000, that any such Indemnified Party may suffer, sustain or become subject to, as a result of, in connection with, or by virtue of:

(i) any breach of, or failure to be true of, any representation or warranty of Company under this Agreement, or in the certificate furnished by Company pursuant to this Agreement;

(ii) any nonfulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement by Company under this Agreement, which nonfulfillment or breach occurred at or prior to the Closing (regardless of when discovered by Parent);

(iii) any Losses in respect of appraisal rights exercised by Company’s stockholders net of any amounts of the Merger Consideration which would have been paid to such stockholders if they had not exercised their appraisal rights; and

(iv) any payment or consideration arising under any consents, waivers or approvals of any party under any agreement as are reasonably required in connection with and to the extent directly due under this Agreement or for any such agreement to remain in full force and effect following the Closing (subsections (i) through (iv) shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Indemnification Obligations”).

(f) The liability of the Indemnifying Parties for the Indemnification Obligations, shall, except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation or willful breach of a covenant, be limited to the Escrow Fund (as defined in Section 8.1(g) below).

With respect to any claim made against the Escrow Fund, each Indemnifying Parties’ liability shall be joint and several (it being understood that Parent may seek indemnification from the Escrow Fund for Losses arising out of claims of fraud, willful misrepresentation or willful breach of a covenant against the Company or its Affiliates). With respect to any claim made for fraud or willful misrepresentation or willful breach of a covenant that is not made against the Escrow Fund, the liability of each Indemnifying Party shall be several and not joint. In the case of Indemnification Obligations attributable to (i) breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 or (ii) fraud or willful misrepresentation or willful breach of a covenant, the maximum liability of each Indemnifying Party shall be limited to the shares of Parent Preferred Stock issued to each such stockholder as consideration under this Agreement.

(g) At the Closing, fifteen percent (15%) of the shares of Parent Preferred Stock otherwise issuable to the Indemnifying Parties under this Agreement (the “Escrow Fund”) shall be placed in escrow by Parent during the Survival Period as security for the Indemnification Obligations of the Indemnifying Parties. On the date that the last remaining shares of Parent Preferred Stock held in the Escrow Fund are distributed from the Escrow Fund (such date, the “Final Distribution Date”), Parent shall distribute the Additional Escrow Amount (defined below) to the Indemnifying Parties based on their pro rata ownership. For purposes of this Agreement, “Additional Escrow Amount” shall mean the net amount of cash that Parent receives from the cash exercise of the Company Option Awards assumed by Parent pursuant to Section 2(a) during the period following the Closing until the Final Distribution Date.

(h) The right to indemnification under this Article 8 or any other remedy based upon the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation.

8.2 Exclusive Remedy; Limitation on Remedy.

(a) Except for (i) any action based upon allegations of fraud or willful misrepresentation in connection with this Agreement or any certificate delivered hereunder or willful breach or breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 and (ii) any equitable relief expressly provided for in this Agreement, from and after the Closing the sole remedy of any Person against the Company and its Affiliates with respect to any and all claims arising under this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be pursuant to this Article 8. Parent and Merger Sub hereby waive, from and after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action they may have against

-54-

Company and its Affiliates under this Agreement and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Except (i) for any action based upon allegations of fraud or willful misrepresentation in connection with this Agreement, (ii) for any equitable relief expressly provided for in this Agreement, or (iii) as may arise out of the breach or failure to be true of any representation or warranty of Parent or Merger Sub (to the extent resulting in Losses in excess of $50,000) under this Agreement or any nonfulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement by Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement (to the extent resulting in Losses in excess of $50,000), no Person will be permitted to seek any remedy against Parent with respect to any claims arising under this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action that any Person may have against Parent and Merger Sub and their Affiliates under this Agreement and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby are hereby waived. Except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation or willful breach of a covenant, in no event will Parent’s or Merger Sub’s liability under this Agreement to any Person arising out of the breach or failure to be true of any representation or warranty of Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement or any nonfulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement by Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement exceed (individually or in the aggregate) the value, determined on the date of the Closing, of ten percent (10%) of the shares of Parent Preferred Stock issuable under this Agreement. No Person will be permitted (or have the right) to raise or bring any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation under the Transaction Agreements against Parent or Merger Sub other than the Stockholders’ Agent. In the case of liabilities attributable to fraud or willful misrepresentation or willful breach of a covenant, the maximum liability of Parent shall be limited to the value, determined on the date of the Closing, of the shares of Parent Preferred Stock issuable by Parent at Closing pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) If the Stockholders’ Agent consents to or does not object to a Claim Notice within 30 days of delivery thereof, Parent may withdraw from the Escrow Fund and cancel shares of Parent Preferred Stock having a value (based on a value of the Parent Preferred Stock of $5.00 per share) equal to the aggregate amount of Losses set forth in the Claim Notice. If the Stockholders’ Agent objects to the Claim Notice, the parties shall resolve the dispute as set forth in Section 8.5.

(c) Promptly following the expiration of the Escrow Period, all shares remaining in the Escrow Fund shall be distributed to the Indemnifying Parties based on their pro rata ownership;

-55-

provided, that if prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period, the Stockholders’ Agent has received one or more Claim Notices not yet resolved, then an amount up to the aggregate amount of the aggregate Losses claimed in all such outstanding Claim Notices shall continue to be held in the Escrow Fund to cover Indemnification Obligations until final resolution of all claims set forth in any such Claim Notices.

8.4 Stockholders’ Agent.

(a) By voting to approve the Merger or accepting any Merger Consideration, the holders of Company Stock appoint the Stockholders’ Agent who shall initially be Arch Venture Corporation as an agent for and on behalf of such Stockholder to give and receive notices and communications, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to, such claims, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Stockholders’ Agent for the accomplishment of the foregoing or otherwise in connection with this Agreement. The identity of the agent may be changed by the holders of a majority in interest of the Company Stock as of the Closing Date upon not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Parent and the Stockholders’ Agent. No bond shall be required of the Stockholders’ Agent, and the Stockholders’ Agent shall receive no compensation for his services. Notices or communications to or from the Stockholders’ Agent shall constitute notice to or from each of the holders of Company Stock.

(b) The Stockholders’ Agent shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as Stockholders’ Agent while acting in good faith, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The stockholders of Company entitled to receive Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1 shall jointly and severally indemnify the Stockholders’ Agent and hold the Stockholders’ Agent harmless from any loss, Liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on the part of the Stockholders’ Agent and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of his duties hereunder.

(c) The Stockholders’ Agent shall have reasonable access to information about Company, and the Surviving Corporation and Parent and the reasonable assistance of Company’s, the Surviving Corporation’s and Parent’s respective officers for purposes of performing his duties and exercising his rights hereunder.

(d) A decision, act, consent, waiver or instruction of the Stockholders’ Agent shall constitute a decision of Company stockholders, including the Indemnifying Parties shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each Company stockholder, including the Indemnifying Party and Parent may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Stockholders’ Agent as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each and every such Company Indemnifying Party. Parent, Company and the Surviving Corporation are hereby relieved of any Liability to any person for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent, waiver or instruction of the Stockholders’ Agent.

-56-

(e) Arch Venture Corporation hereby agrees to act as Stockholders’ Agent pursuant to the terms hereof.

8.5 Resolution of Conflicts.

(a) The Stockholders’ Agent may object to any claims made in any Claim Notice by delivering to Parent a written notice of such objection setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such objection (an “Objection Notice”), within 30 days of delivery to the Stockholders’ Agent of the Claim Notice containing the claim(s) to which the objection relates. The parties shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to any claims that are the subject of an Objection Notice. If the parties should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by the Stockholders’ Agent and Parent (a “Settlement Memorandum”). A Settlement Memorandum shall conclusively resolve any dispute regarding a claim to which it relates. Parent shall be entitled to rely on any such memorandum and deduct shares of Parent Preferred Stock from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof. If an Objection Notice relating to a Claim Notice is not timely delivered to Parent, then the contents of such Claim Notice shall be conclusively established.

(b) If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation and prior to thirty days after delivery of an Objection Notice, either party may demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the Loss that is at issue is the subject of a pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to arbitration, and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration conducted by one arbitrator mutually agreeable to the parties. If, within thirty days after submission of any dispute to arbitration, the parties cannot mutually agree on one arbitrator, then, within fifteen days after the end of such thirty day period, the parties shall each select one arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator. If either party fails to select an arbitrator during this fifteen day period, then the parties agree that the arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator selected by the party which has selected an arbitrator.

(c) Any such arbitration shall be held in King County, Washington under the rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator(s) shall determine how all expenses relating to the arbitration shall be paid, including the respective expenses of each party, the fees of each arbitrator and the administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator or arbitrators, as the case may be, shall set a limited time period and establish procedures designed to reduce the cost and time for discovery while allowing the parties an opportunity, adequate in the sole judgment of the arbitrator or majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, to discover relevant information from the opposing parties about the subject matter of the dispute. The arbitrator, or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, shall rule upon motions to compel or limit discovery and shall have the authority to impose sanctions, including attorneys’ fees and costs, to the same extent as a competent court of law or equity, should the arbitrators or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the case may be, determine that discovery was sought without substantial justification or that discovery was refused or objected to without substantial justification. The decision of the arbitrator or a majority of the three arbitrators, as the

9.2 Interpretation and Construction of Transaction Agreements.

(a) Unless the context shall otherwise require, any pronoun herein or in another Transaction Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine, and neuter forms, and words using the singular or plural number also shall include the plural or singular number, respectively. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” herein or in another Transaction Agreement shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation” and the word “or” shall include the meaning “either or both.” All references herein or in another Transaction Agreement to sections, exhibits, and schedules shall be deemed to be references to sections of, and exhibits and schedules to, the agreement in which such references are made unless the context shall otherwise require. The table of contents and the headings of the sections herein and in the other Transaction Agreements are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or such other Transaction Agreement, as the case may be. Unless the context shall otherwise require, any reference herein or in another Transaction Agreement to any agreement or other instrument or statute or regulation is to such agreement, instrument, statute or regulation as amended and supplemented from time to time (and, in the case of a statute or regulation, to any successor provision). The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereto” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.

(b) The parties acknowledge that each party has participated in the drafting of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, and that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be applied in the construction or interpretation of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements.

(c) Any reference in a Transaction Agreement to a “day” or a number of “days” (without the explicit qualification of “business”) shall be interpreted as a reference to a calendar day or number of calendar days. If any action or notice is to be taken or given on or by a particular

-60-

calendar day, and such calendar day is not a Business Day, then such action or notice shall be deferred until, or may be taken or given on, the next Business Day.

(d) The phrases “the date of this Agreement”, “the date hereof”, and terms of similar import, unless the context otherwise requires, shall be deemed to refer to the Execution Date.

9.3 Specific Performance. Each party agrees that irreparable harm, for which there may be no adequate remedy at law and for which the ascertainment of Damages would be difficult, would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. Each party accordingly agrees that the other parties shall be entitled to specifically enforce this Agreement and to obtain an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, in each instance without being required to post bond or other security and in addition to, and without having to prove the adequacy of, other remedies at law.

9.4 Counterparts; Facsimile Delivery. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and delivered by facsimile, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

9.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements, and the documents and instruments and other agreements specifically referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, including the exhibits and the schedules hereto and thereto, (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and (b) supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, including the Term Sheet, dated July 3, 2006 between Parent and Company.

9.6 Amendment; Waiver; Requirement of Writing. This Agreement and each of the other Transaction Agreements cannot be amended or changed nor any performance, term, or condition waived in whole or in part except by a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment, change or waiver is sought. Any term or condition of this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Agreements may be waived at any time by the party hereto entitled to the benefit thereof, and any such term or condition may be modified at any time by an agreement in writing executed by each of the parties hereto entitled to the benefit thereof. No delay or failure on the part of any party in exercising any rights hereunder, and no partial or single exercise thereof, will constitute a waiver of such rights or of any other rights hereunder.

9.7 Expenses. Each of the parties hereto shall pay, without right of reimbursement from the other party, all the costs incurred by it incident to the preparation, execution, and delivery of this Agreement or the performance of its obligations hereunder, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be consummated.

-61-

9.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except with respect to the right to receive the consideration to be provided at the time of Closing pursuant to Section 2.1(b), and with respect to director and officer indemnification pursuant to Section 5.13 nothing in this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements will be construed as giving any person, other than the parties and their successors and permitted assigns, any right, remedy, or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements or any provision hereof or thereof. Each of the Existing Investors that participate in the Investment will have the right to rely upon the representations and warranties made by Parent and Merger Sub in Article IV of this Agreement in connection with their purchase of Series E Preferred Stock of Omeros pursuant to the Investment.

9.9 Disclaimer of Agency. Except for any provisions herein or in the Transaction Agreements expressly authorizing one party to act for another, neither this Agreement nor any Transaction Agreement shall constitute any party as a legal representative or agent of the other party, nor shall a party have the right or authority to assume, create, or incur any Liability of any kind, expressed or implied, against or in the name or on behalf of the other party or any of its Affiliates.

9.10 Relationship of the Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Transaction Agreements is intended to, or shall be deemed to, create a partnership or joint venture relationship among the parties hereto or thereto or any of their Affiliates for any purpose, including tax purposes.

9.11 Assignment. This Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements and the rights and obligations of each party hereunder or thereunder shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that no party hereto shall assign this Agreement or another Transaction Agreement (except that Parent and Merger Sub may assign this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements without the consent of Company to Affiliates of Parent; provided that Parent and Merger Sub shall not be so released from their obligations hereunder without the consent of Company).

9.12 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect, and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

9.13 Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided herein (including pursuant to Section 8.2), any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity, upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.
