3.24 Insurance. The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary for the business in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged. The Company has no reason to believe that it will not be able to renew existing insurance coverage for itself and the Subsidiaries as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary or appropriate to continue business.

3.25 Solvency. Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of the date hereof, (i) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company and the Company’s projected capital requirements for the current fiscal year; and (iii) the current cash position of the Company would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its currently outstanding debts and other recorded accrued liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company has no present intention to incur indebtedness beyond its ability to pay such indebtedness.

3.26 Internal Accounting Controls. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, the Company and each of the Subsidiaries maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences, and (v) the Company is otherwise in compliance in all material respects with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and all other rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and applicable to the Company, including the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, as amended. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as

-11-

defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that the Company is able to collect the information that it is required to disclose in the reports it files with the SEC and to process, summarize and disclose this information in the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of June 30, 2007. Since June 30, 2007, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such terms is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or, to the Company’s knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls.

3.27 Environmental.

To its knowledge, the Company has not disposed of, discharged, emitted or released any Hazardous Substances which would require, under applicable Environmental Laws, remediation, investigation or similar response activity. No Hazardous Substances are present as a result of the actions of the Company or, to the Company’s knowledge, any other Person, in, on or under the Premises which would give rise to any liability or clean-up obligations of the Company under applicable Environmental Laws.

Neither the Company nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any other Person for whose conduct it may be responsible pursuant to an agreement or by operation of law has received any written complaint, notice, order, or citation of any actual, threatened or alleged noncompliance with any of the Environmental Laws, and there is no proceeding, suit or investigation pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened against the Company or, to the Company’s knowledge, any such Person with respect to any violation or alleged violation of the Environmental Laws, and, to the knowledge of the Company, there is no basis for the institution of any such proceeding, suit or investigation.

3.28 Disclosure. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser will rely on the representations and covenants contained herein in effecting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, and in the securities of the Company after the Closing.

All action on the part of such Purchaser and, if applicable, its officers, directors, managers, members, shareholders and/or partners necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein, has been taken. When executed and delivered, each of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except as such may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles. Each Purchaser has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into each of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of hereof and thereof.

4.2 Purchase Entirely for Own Account. Each Purchaser is acquiring the Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares for its own account for investment and not for resale or with a view to distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act.

4.3 Investor Status; Etc. Each Purchaser certifies and represents to the Company that it is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and was not organized for the purpose of acquiring any of the Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares. Each Purchaser’s financial condition is such that it is able to bear the risk of holding the Shares for an indefinite period of time and the risk of loss of its entire investment. Each Purchaser has sufficient knowledge and experience in investing in companies similar to the Company so as to be able to evaluate the risks and merits of its investment in the Company. Each Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented to the Purchaser in connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Each Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Shares. Each Purchaser understands that its investment in the Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares involves a significant degree of risk, including a risk of total loss of the Purchaser’s investment, and each Purchaser has full cognizance of and understands all of the risk factors related to the Purchaser’s purchase of the Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares, including, but not limited to, those set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2007. The Purchaser understands that the market price of the Common Stock can be volatile and that no representation is being made as to the future value of the Common Stock.

4.4 Securities Not Registered. Each Purchaser understands that the Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of their issuance by the Company in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and that the Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares must continue to be held by such Purchaser unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Securities Act or is exempt from such registration. Each Purchaser understands that the exemptions from registration afforded by Rule 144 (the provisions of which are known to it) promulgated under the Securities Act depend on the satisfaction of various conditions, and that, if applicable, Rule 144 may afford the basis for sales only in limited amounts.

7.1 By the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners, members and controlling persons (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, deficiencies, judgments, assessments, fines, settlements, costs or expenses (including interest, penalties and reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) (collectively, “Losses”) based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of any breach by the Company of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement or in the Transaction Documents.

7.2 Claims All claims for indemnification by a Purchaser Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 7 shall be made as follows:

(a) If a Purchaser Indemnitee has incurred or suffered Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification under this Section 7, then such Purchaser Indemnitee shall give prompt written notice of such claim (a “Claim Notice”) to the Company. Each Claim Notice shall state the amount of claimed Losses (the “Claimed Amount”), if known, and the basis for such claim.

(b) Within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Company (the “Indemnifying Party”) shall provide to each Purchaser Indemnitee (the “Indemnified Party”), a written response (the “Response Notice”) in which the Indemnifying Party shall: (i) agree that all of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party, (ii) agree that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount (the “Agreed Amount”) is owed to the Indemnified Party, or (iii) contest that any of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party may contest the payment of all or a portion of the Claimed Amount only based upon a good faith belief that all or such portion of the Claimed Amount does not constitute Losses for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 7. If no Response Notice is delivered by the Indemnifying Party within such 30-day period, then the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that all of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party.

-19-

(c) If the Indemnifying Party in the Response Notice agrees (or is deemed to have agreed) that all of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall owe to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Claimed Amount to be paid in the manner set forth in this Section 7. If the Indemnifying Party in the Response Notice agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall owe to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the agreed amount set forth in such Response Notice to be paid in the manner set forth in this Section 7.

(d) No delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any actual prejudice caused by or arising out of such delay.

7.3. Payment of Claims. An Indemnifying Party shall make payment of any portion of any Claimed Amount that such Indemnifying Party has agreed in a Response Notice that it owes to an Indemnified Party, or that such Indemnifying Party is deemed to have agreed it owes to such Indemnifying Party, said payment to be made within thirty (30) days after such Response Notice is delivered by such Indemnifying Party or should have been delivered by such Indemnifying Party, as the case may be.

7.4. Limitations.

(a) Time for Claims. No Indemnifying Party will be liable for any Losses hereunder arising out of a breach of representation or warranty unless a written claim for indemnification is given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party on or prior to the third anniversary of the date on which the registration statement covering the resale of the Shares initially became effective.

(b) Maximum Amount. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no Indemnifying Party will be liable for any Losses hereunder in excess of the aggregate purchase price of all shares of capital stock and other securities sold pursuant to this Agreement.

7.5 Applicability; Exclusivity. Notwithstanding any term to the contrary in this Section 7, the indemnification and contribution provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement shall govern any claim made with respect to registration statements filed pursuant thereto or sales made thereunder. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in addition to remedies of the parties hereto in respect of any and all claims relating to any breach or purported breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that is contained in this Agreement pursuant to the indemnification provisions of this Section 7, all parties shall always retain the right to pursue and obtain injunctive relief in addition to any other rights or remedies hereunder.

Each Purchaser may assign or transfer any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person provided that such assignee or transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Shares and the Warrant Shares, by the provisions hereof that apply to such assigning or transferring Purchaser; whereupon such assignee or transferee shall be deemed to be a “Purchaser” for all purposes of this Agreement.

8.10 Survival.

This Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal District Court located in Boston, Massachusetts, and if such court does not have proper jurisdiction, the State Courts of Suffolk County, Massachusetts. The parties hereto agree that any breach of any term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a breach occurring in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts by virtue of a failure to perform an act required to be performed in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and irrevocably and expressly agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court located in Boston, Massachusetts, and if such court does not have proper jurisdiction, the State Courts of Suffolk County, Massachusetts, for the purpose of resolving any disputes among the parties hereto relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

AMENDMENT TO COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

AND WAIVER

This Amendment to Common Stock Purchase Agreement and Waiver (the “Amendment and Waiver”), dated as of August 7, 2007, is by and among (i) Curis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and (ii) each of the undersigned persons (each, a “Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Purchasers”).

Reference is made to that certain Common Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 6, 2007, by and among the Company and the Purchasers (the “Purchase Agreement”).

WHEREAS, each person listed on Schedule 1 hereto (each, an “Additional Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Additional Purchasers”) desires to purchase (i) the number of shares (the “Additional Shares”) of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) set forth next to each such Additional Purchaser’s name and (ii) warrants (the “Additional Warrants”) to purchase the number of shares (the “Additional Warrant Shares”) of Common Stock set forth next to each such Additional Purchaser’s name (such purchases of the Additional Shares and Additional Warrants, the “Investment”); and

WHEREAS, the Company and each of the Purchasers desire to amend the Purchase Agreement and waive certain rights under the Purchase Agreement as set forth below as an inducement to the Additional Purchasers to consummate the Investment.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto enter into this Amendment and Waiver and agree as follows:

1. The Disclosure Schedule attached as Exhibit B to the Purchase Agreement is hereby deleted and amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.

2. Each of the Purchasers hereby waives its rights under Section 6.7 of the Purchase Agreement in order to permit the issuance of the Additional Shares, the Additional Warrants and the Additional Warrant Shares, provided, however, that this waiver does not constitute a waiver with respect to any other provision of Section 6.7 of the Purchase Agreement.

3. Except as set forth herein, the Purchase Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without modification.

4. This Amendment and Waiver shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the substantive laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.

5. This Amendment and Waiver may be executed in more than one counterpart and as so executed shall constitute a single instrument, notwithstanding that all of the parties have not signed the same counterpart.

[The remainder of this page has intentionally been left blank.]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and each of the Purchasers have executed this Amendment and Waiver as of the date first above written.
