			BALL CORPORATION
		

		
			 
		

		
			ECONOMIC VALUE ADDED
		

		
			INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
		

		
			 
		

		
			1.        Statement of Purpose
		

		
			 
		

		
			The purpose of the Ball Corporation (the "Company") Economic Value Added Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Plan") is to produce sustained shareholder value improvement by establishing a direct link between Economic Value Added ("EVA") and annual short-term incentive compensation payments.
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.        Administration of the Plan
		

		
			 
		

		
			The Committee of management of the Company (the “EVA Committee”)shall be the administrator of the Plan, with oversight and governance by the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors (the “HR Committee”).  The HR Committee shall have full power to formulate additional regulations and make interpretations for carrying out the Plan.  The HR Committee shall also be empowered to make any and all of the determinations not herein specifically authorized which may be necessary or desirable for the effective administration of the Plan.  Any decision or interpretation of any provision of this Plan adopted by the HR Committee shall be final and conclusive. The Corporate Compensation Department is responsible for executing the administration of the Plan.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			3.        Eligibility
		

		
			 
		

		
			Eligibility to participate is limited to employees in locations and positions approved by the EVA Committee or in the case of an Officer of the Company by the HR Committee.
		

		
			 
		

		
			4.        Targets
		

		
			 
		

		
			4.1.        Establishment of Target Incentive Percent - At the time a Participant commences participation in the Plan, there shall be established for each Participant a Target Incentive Percent.  The Target Incentive Percent for such Participant for any future Year(s) may be increased, decreased or left unchanged from the prior Year.  Following the end of each Year, the Target Incentive Percent for that Year will be multiplied by the Base Salary of such Participant for that Year to arrive at the Target Incentive Amount for such Participant.  The Target Incentive Amount will then be multiplied by the Performance Factor for that Year to arrive at the amount of the Award, if any, and the amount of adjustment to the Participant's Bank balance, if any.

			4.2.        Establishment of Target EVA - For any one Year, Target EVA shall equal the sum of (i) the prior year's Target EVA and (ii) one-half (1/2) the amount of the prior year's Incremental EVA.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Adjustments to the Target EVA (as computed above) may be made, with the approval of the HR Committee due to changes in the composition of the Participating Units, or for other reasons at the discretion of the HR Committee.
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.        Calculation of Performance Factors, Awards, Banks, and Distributions
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.1.        Calculation of the Performance Factor
		

		
			 
		

		
			a.    If Incremental EVA (i.e., Actual EVA less Target EVA) is positive, the Performance Factor is determined as follows:
		

		
			 
		

			
					
						Performance Factor =

					
					
						1+

					
					
						Incremental EVA

				
	
					
						 

					
					
						Positive Leverage Factor

				

		
			 
		

		
			b.    If Incremental EVA is zero (0), the Performance Factor is 1.00.
		

		
			 
		

		
			c.    If Incremental EVA is negative, the Performance Factor is determined as follows:
		

		
			 
		

			
					
						Performance Factor =

					
					
						1-

					
					
						Incremental EVA

				
	
					
						 

					
					
						Negative Leverage Factor

				

		
			 
		

		
			5.2.        Calculation of Participant's Award - The Performance Factor will be multiplied by the Participant's Target Incentive Amount to arrive at each Participant's Award for the Year.
		

		
			 
		

		
			If a Participant has multiple Participation Bases, the Performance Factor for each Participation Basis will be determined separately and accumulated to compute the Participant's total Award.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Except with the prior approval of the HR Committee, the total Award for a Participating Unit may not exceed one-third (1/3) of Positive Incremental EVA generated by that Unit, computed before consideration of such Awards.  The Leverage Factor of the Participating Unit will be amended if the total Award of the Unit exceeds one-third (1/3).
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.3.        Determination of Distributions,Bank Balances and Distribution Date - To encourage sustained improvements to EVA, there are cases when earned incentive will be deferred and credited to a Participant's Bank balance.  Correspondingly, to ensure accountability for performance in

			down periods, there are cases when a negative Bank balance will be created for a Participant.  Appendix A sets out the Plan distribution rules.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The distribution date shall be once each year and no later than March 15 of the year following the year for which an Award was calculated.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The formulas and examples of Determination of Distributions and Bank Balances are contained in Appendix A and B and are incorporated by reference herein and form a part of the Plan.
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.4.        De Minimis Bank Balances - If after determination of the Distribution for the Year, the Bank balance is positive but less than Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or equivalent in the Participant’s local currency using the most recent calendar year-end foreign exchange rate, then such balance will be added to the Distribution for the Year, and the Bank balance will thereby be brought to zero.
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.5.        Calculation of Award Distributions When a Participant has Multiple Participation Bases - In the event a Participant has multiple Participation Bases for a Year, then Awards, Banks, Performance Factors and Target Incentive Amounts shall be calculated separately and independently for each Participation Basis.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Bank balances shall be maintained separately for each Participation Basis.  A Bank Balance from one Participation Basis may not be offset against a Bank balance of another Participation Basis.
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.6.        Changes in Participation Basis - In the event a Participant experiences a change in Participation Basis during a Year, then Awards, Banks, Performance Factors and Target Incentive Amounts shall be calculated separately and independently for each Participation Basis of such Participant using those portions of the Participant's Base Salary actually paid for service while included in each separate Participation Basis.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Bank balances shall be maintained separately for each Participation Basis.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.7.       Changes in Target Incentive Percent - In the event a Participant experiences a change in Target Incentive Percent without experiencing a change in Participation Basis during a Year, then Award calculations and Bank adjustments will be made separately using those portions of the Participant's Base Salary actually paid for service while participating at each separate Target Incentive Percent.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Separate Bank accounts shall not be maintained because of changes in a Participant's Target Incentive Percent.
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.8.        Qualification of Distributions for Other Plans - Distributions from the Plan to active Participants shall qualify as incentive payments for the purpose

			of any deferred compensation plan(s) maintained by the Company, and as such, may be deferred by Participants eligible to defer under the terms and conditions of such plan(s).  Such eligibility for deferral is not automatic and shall only be as authorized for eligible employees under the rules of such plan(s).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in such plan(s), no portion of any Award or any Bank, prior to actual Distribution, shall qualify for the purposes of deferral under the terms and conditions of such plan(s).
		

		
			 
		

		
			6.        Leverage Factors
		

		
			 
		

		
			6.1.        Establishment of Positive Leverage Factor - The Positive Leverage Factor is determined by the EVA Committee, with the approval of the HR Committee.  The determination of the Positive Leverage Factor considers a number of judgmental factors including, but not limited to, the volatility of earnings and the capital invested in each Participating Unit and the Total Incentive Amount for all Participants in each Participating Unit.
		

		
			 
		

		
			It is anticipated that changes to the Positive Leverage Factor will not be made often.  Circumstances which may warrant a change in the Positive Leverage factor include significant changes which affect the Participating Unit, including a change in the composition of the Participating Unit, permanent changes in market conditions, and acquisitions and/or divestitures.
		

		
			 
		

		
			6.2.        Establishment of Negative Leverage Factor - The Negative Leverage Factor is equal to the Positive Leverage Factor multiplied by a factor of two (2.0).
		

		
			 
		

		
			7.        Distributions Following Termination
		

		
			 
		

		
			7.1.        Eligibility - A Participant who terminates employment prior to the Distribution Date of a Year shall not be eligible for any Distribution for such Year or any future Distributions, unless such termination is by reason of Retirement, Death or Disability. Regardless of Retirement status, any Participant whose employment terminates for cause shall not be eligible to receive any Distributions. In cases involving location closures or reduction in force programs, the EVA Committee may approve an exception to these eligibility guidelines and pro-rate as needed for time of service.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			7.2.       Distributions for the Year of Retirement, Death or Disability - Distributions for a Participant for the Year of such Participant's termination of employment by reason of Retirement, Death or Disability shall be on the same basis as for all other Participants and pro-rated as needed for time of service.

			Complete Distribution of Bank(s) of Participants who have experienced a termination of employment by reason of Retirement, Death or Disability shall be accomplished no later than the normal Distribution Date following the Year of such termination by reason of Retirement, Death or Disability.
		

		
			 
		

		
			7.3.        Obligation for Negative Bank Balances - If, after the Distribution made for the Year of Retirement, Death or Disability, the Participant's Bank balance is negative, then such Bank balance will be eliminated without further obligation of the Participant to the Company.  Participants who terminate for reasons other than Retirement, Death or Disability and at the time of termination have a negative Bank balance will have no obligation to the Company related to the negative Bank balance.
		

		
			 
		

		
			8.        Beneficiary Designation
		

		
			 
		

		
			The Participant shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to designate and/or change or cancel any person/persons or entity as to his Beneficiary (both principal and contingent) to whom Distribution under this Plan shall be made in the event of such Participant's death prior to a Distribution.  Any Beneficiary change or cancellation shall become effective only when filed in writing with the Corporate Compensation Department during the Participant's lifetime on a form provided by or otherwise acceptable to the Company. In locations where there is a mandatory line of succession, payment will be made in accordance with local law.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The filing of a new Beneficiary designation form will cancel all Beneficiary designations previously filed.  Any finalized divorce of a Participant subsequent to the date of filing of a Beneficiary designation form shall revoke any prior designation of the divorced spouse as a Beneficiary.  The spouse of a Participant domiciled in a community property jurisdiction shall be required to join in any designation of Beneficiary other than the spouse in order for the Beneficiary designation to be effective.
		

		
			 
		

		
			If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary as provided above, or, if such Beneficiary designation is revoked by divorce, or otherwise, without execution of a new designation, or if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Participant, then the Distribution shall be made to the Participant's estate.
		

		
			 
		

		
			9.        Miscellaneous
		

		
			 
		

		
			9.1.        Unsecured General Creditor - Participants and their beneficiaries, heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interests, or other claim in any property or assets of the Employer.  Any and all assets shall remain general, unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Employer.  The Company's obligation under the Plan shall be that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to pay money in the future, and there shall be no obligation to establish any fund, any security or any

			9.2.        Obligations To The Employer - If a Participant becomes entitled to a Distribution under the Plan, and, if, at the time of the Distribution, such Participant has outstanding any debt, obligation or other liability representing an amount owed to the Employer, then the Employer may offset such amounts owing to it or any affiliate against the amount of any Distribution.  Such determination shall be made by the EVA Committee.  Any election by the EVA Committee not to reduce any Distribution shall not constitute a waiver of any claim for any outstanding debt, obligation, or other liability representing an amount owed to the Employer.
		

		
			 
		

		
			9.3.        Nonassignability - Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be unassignable and nontransferable.  No part of an Award and/or Bank, prior to actual Distribution, shall be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, nor shall it be transferable by operation of law in the event of the Participant's or any other person's bankruptcy or insolvency.
		

		
			 
		

		
			9.4.       Taxes: Withholding - To the extent required by law, the Company shall withhold from all cash Distributions made, any amount required to be withheld by the federal, state, provincial or local government.
		

		
			 
		

		
			9.5.        No Right to Continued Employment or Participation - Nothing contained in this Plan, nor any action taken hereunder, shall be construed as a contract of employment or as giving any Eligible Employee, Participant or former Participant any right to be retained in the employ of the Employer.  Participation is discretionary and is not a contractual right. Designation as an Eligible Employee or as a Participant is on a year-by-year basis and may or may not be renewed for any employment years not yet commenced.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			9.6.        Applicable Law - This Plan shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana, or if not possible, in accordance with applicable local laws.
		

		
			 
		

		
			9.7.        Validity - In the event any provision of the Plan is held invalid, void, or unenforceable, the same shall not affect, in any respect whatsoever, the validity of any other provision of the Plan.
		

		
			 
		

		
			9.8.        Notice - Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the HR Committee shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered, or sent by

No such termination of the Plan shall reduce any Distribution already made.
		

		
			 
		

		
			b.  Payments Upon Termination of the Plan.  Upon any termination of the Plan under this Section, Awards for future years shall not be made.

						Zero

					
					
						> 2x

					
					
						100% of Award up to 2x, plus 1/3 of Award in excess of 2x.

					
					
						Positive balance equal to 2/3 of the Award in excess of 2x.

						Positive

					
					
						Negative

					
					
						1/3 of bank balance after applying the current negative Award.  If the negative Award exceeds the beginning bank balance, the Distribution is zero.

						Positive

					
					
						Zero – 2x

					
					
						100% of Award plus 1/3 of the beginning bank balance.

THIS AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO LOAN AGREEMENT, dated as of February 26, 2018 (this “Amendment”), is made among Omeros Corporation, a Washington corporation (“Borrower”), CRG Servicing LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacities, “Administrative Agent”), and the lenders listed on the signature pages hereof (each, a “Lender” and, collectively, the “Lenders”), with respect to the Loan Agreement referred to below.
RECITALS
WHEREAS, Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders are parties to the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of October 26, 2016, as partially waived pursuant to the Waiver to Loan Agreement, dated as of May 9, 2017 (the “Waiver”), and as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Loan Agreement, dated as of October 11, 2017 (as so partially waived and amended, the “Loan Agreement”), with the Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time party thereto.
WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Administrative Agent and the Lenders (which Lenders constitute all of the Lenders party to the Loan Agreement), and Administrative Agent and the Lenders have agreed to, amend the conditions in Sections 6.03(b) and 6.04(b) of the Loan Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:
SECTION 1.Definitions; Interpretation.
(a)    Terms Defined in Loan Agreement.  All capitalized terms used in this Amendment (including in the recitals hereof) and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Loan Agreement.
(b)    Interpretation.  The rules of interpretation set forth in Section 1.03 of the Loan Agreement shall be applicable to this Amendment and are incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 2.    Amendments.  Subject to Section 3 of this Amendment:
(a)    The defined term “Commitment Period” shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“Commitment Period” means the period from and including the first date on which all of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 6.01 and 6.02 have been satisfied (or waived by the Lenders) and through and including May 20, 2018.
(b)    Section 6.03(b) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(b)    Borrowing Date.    Such Borrowing shall occur on or prior to May 20, 2018.

(c)    Section 6.04(b) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(b)    Borrowing Date.    Such Borrowing shall occur on or prior to May 20, 2018.
SECTION 3.    Conditions of Effectiveness.  The effectiveness of Section 2 of this Amendment shall be subject to the following conditions precedent:
(a)    Borrower, Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders shall have duly executed and delivered this Amendment pursuant to Section 13.04 of the Loan Agreement; provided, however, that this Amendment shall have no binding force or effect unless all conditions set forth in this Section 3 have been satisfied;
(b)    No Default or Event of Default under the Loan Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing; and
(c)    Borrower shall have paid or reimbursed Administrative Agent and the Lenders for their reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ legal counsel) incurred in connection with this Amendment pursuant to Section 13.03(a)(i)(z) of the Loan Agreement.
SECTION 4.    Reaffirmation.  Borrower hereby ratifies, confirms, reaffirms, and acknowledges its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party and agrees that the Loan Documents remain in full force and effect, undiminished by this Amendment, except as expressly provided herein, including, for the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent’s rights pursuant to Sections 8.01, 8.02 and 8.06 of the Loan Agreement.  By executing this Amendment, Borrower acknowledges that it has read, consulted with its attorneys regarding, and understands, this Amendment.  For the avoidance of doubt, the parties confirm that the waiver of Sections 6.03(d), (e) and (f) in the Waiver continue to apply.

(a)    Governing Law.

(b)    Submission to Jurisdiction.  Borrower agrees that any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Amendment or any other Loan Document to which it is a party or any judgment entered by any court in respect thereof may be brought initially in the federal or state courts in Houston, Texas or in the courts of its own corporate domicile and irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of each such court for the purpose of any such suit, action, proceeding or judgment.  This Section 5 is for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders only and, as a result, none of Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be prevented from taking proceedings

(c)    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.
SECTION 6.    Miscellaneous.
(a)    No Waiver.  Except as expressly stated herein, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with any term or condition contained in the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or constitute a course of conduct or dealing among the parties.  Except as expressly stated herein, Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserve all rights, privileges and remedies under the Loan Documents.  Except as amended hereby, the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents remain unmodified and in full force and effect.  All references in the Loan Documents to the Loan Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Loan Agreement as amended hereby.

(c)    Headings.  Headings and captions used in this Amendment (including the Exhibits, Schedules and Annexes hereto, if any) are included for convenience of reference only and shall not be given any substantive effect.
(d)    Integration.  This Amendment constitutes a Loan Document and, together with the other Loan Documents, incorporates all negotiations of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and is the final expression and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.
(e)    Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Amendment by signing any such counterpart.

(f)    Controlling Provisions.  In the event of any inconsistencies between the provisions of this Amendment and the provisions of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Amendment shall govern and prevail.  Except as expressly modified by this Amendment, the Loan Documents shall not be modified and shall remain in full force and effect.

3

(g)    Notices.
