Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 11, 2017, Omeros Corporation (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 1 to Loan Agreement (the “Amendment”), which amended the Term Loan Agreement, dated October 26, 2016, among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto and CRG Servicing LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Loan Agreement”). Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company will be permitted to access, at its election, the second and third tranches of debt financing under the Loan Agreement in amounts up to $25.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, on or prior to March 21, 2018. The Company’s ability to access the second tranche under the Loan Agreement had previously expired on September 19, 2017 but, by this Amendment, has been extended to be contemporaneous with the last permitted draw-down date of March 21, 2018 for the third tranche. Pursuant to the Amendment the Company has the discretion to draw down any or all of the total $45.0 million, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Other than limited administrative and legal fees, the Company incurred no cost associated with the Amendment.

The Company to date has not drawn or requested any funds under either the second or third tranche. The Company’s objective in the Amendment is to preserve additional future financial flexibility.

The foregoing description of the Amendment is only a summary of its material terms and does not purport to be complete. A copy of the Amendment is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
