Mr. Zumwalt's initial term will expire at the Company's 2020 annual meeting of shareholders or his earlier resignation or removal.
Mr. Zumwalt, 51, served as treasurer at Amazon.com, Inc. from 2014 until August 2019, where he led global cash and portfolio management, debt financing, foreign exchange, insurance and treasury-related technology infrastructure. Prior to joining Amazon.com as assistant treasurer in 2004, he served in various financial and treasury roles at PACCAR, ProBusiness Services, Wind River Systems and Intel Corporation. He also serves on the board of directors of the United States Tennis Association and of the USTA Foundation. Mr. Zumwalt received a B.A. in economics and political science from the University of Pennsylvania and an M.B.A. in finance and accounting from the University of Washington.
Pursuant to the Company's non-employee director compensation policy Mr. Zumwalt was granted a stock option to purchase 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock on the date of his appointment.

In addition, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Zumwalt effective February 10, 2020, pursuant to which Mr. Zumwalt will provide consulting services to the Company, primarily focused on the further development of the Company's relationships with major banks and financial institutions. For his services under the consulting agreement, Mr. Zumwalt received a stock option to purchase 11,750 shares of the Company's common stock, which will vest in equal monthly installments over one year, provided that Mr. Zumwalt continues to be a "service provider" to the Company, as defined in the Omeros Corporation 2017 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan. Mr. Zumwalt is not party to any other understanding or arrangement in connection with his appointment as a director.
Mr. Zumwalt has not yet been appointed to any committee of the board of directors.
