ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This is the entire Agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter herein and shall not be modified except in writing signed by both parties or by a new posting by Alnylam, as described above.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS DISCLAIMER.

This website, and the documents contained in (or directly accessible from) this website, include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the US Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements about our future expectations, plans, prospects and future operating results and any other statements containing the words “believes”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “estimates” and similar expressions. There are a number of important factors that could cause Alnylam’s actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including our approach to discover and develop novel drugs, which is unproven and may never lead to marketable products; obtaining, maintaining and protecting intellectual property; our ability to enforce our patents against infringers and to defend our patent portfolio against challenges from third parties; our ability to obtain additional funding to support our business activities; our dependence on third parties for development, manufacture, marketing, sales and distribution of our products; the successful development of products, all of which are in early stages of development; obtaining regulatory approval for products; competition from others using technology similar to ours and others developing products for similar uses; our dependence on collaborators; and our short operating history; and other factors identified in the filings Alnylam makes from time to time with the SEC. Alnylam disclaims any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring after the date such statement was first made.
