the merger agreement, current stockholders of Nuvelo are expected to own approximately 33% of the common stock of the combined company, and current ARCA stockholders are expected to own or have the right to acquire approximately 67% of the combined
company, after giving effect to the shares issuable pursuant to ARCA&#146;s outstanding options and warrants, primarily on a treasury method basis, and without giving effect to any shares issuable pursuant to Nuvelo&#146;s outstanding options and
warrants. Immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, all outstanding shares of ARCA preferred stock will convert automatically into shares of ARCA common stock at the then applicable conversion rate, and the outstanding principal and
accrued interest under ARCA&#146;s 6% convertible promissory notes dated October&nbsp;10, 2008 will convert automatically into shares of ARCA common stock at the conversion price stated in the notes. The actual number of shares of Nuvelo common
stock to be issued in respect of each share of capital stock of ARCA will be determined by dividing an aggregate of 109,009,278 shares of Nuvelo common stock by the number of shares of ARCA common stock outstanding and deemed outstanding pursuant to
the formula set forth in the merger agreement and described herein and under &#147;The Merger Agreement.&#148; The exact exchange ratio per share of ARCA&#146;s capital stock will depend upon the number of shares of ARCA&#146;s common stock

includes NU172, a direct thrombin inhibitor that has completed Phase 1 development for use as a short-acting anticoagulant during medical or surgical procedures, and Phase 1 clinical candidate NU206, a recombinant, secreted protein for the potential
treatment of gastrointestinal, or GI, diseases, including cancer therapy induced mucositis and inflammatory bowel disease, in addition to bone disease and wound healing. Nuvelo anticipates initiating a Phase 2 study evaluating NU172 in CABG patients
in the fourth quarter of 2008 or first quarter of 2009. Nuvelo initiated a Phase 1 single ascending dose trial of NU206 in healthy volunteers in July 2008 and expects data from the trial in the fourth quarter of 2008. Nuvelo also plans to initiate a
Phase 1b multiple ascending dose trial in healthy volunteers in the fourth quarter of 2008 or first quarter of 2009. In addition to its NU172 and NU206 development programs, Nuvelo has research programs in leukemia therapeutic antibodies and Wnt

agreed to in the merger agreement, ARCA entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated September&nbsp;24, 2008, as amended on October&nbsp;10, 2008 with certain holders of ARCA preferred stock pursuant to which ARCA sold, for an aggregate
consideration of $8.75 million, its 6% Convertible Promissory Notes due March&nbsp;31, 2009, or the Notes, and warrants, or the Warrants, to purchase a number of shares of ARCA&#146;s common stock as determined pursuant to the Warrants. The
outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Notes will convert into that number of shares of ARCA common stock immediately prior to the closing of the merger equal to the amount of unpaid principal and interest due as of the date of conversion
divided by the conversion price. The conversion price is equal to the lesser of: (i)&nbsp;$3.253 or (ii)&nbsp;the product of (a)&nbsp;the average closing price of Nuvelo common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market for the five consecutive trading days
immediately preceding (but not including) the date the merger is consummated and (b)&nbsp;the Exchange Ratio; provided, however that in no event will the conversion price be less than $1.6265. The number of shares of ARCA common stock subject to the
Warrants issued in the convertible bridge note financing is calculated by dividing (i)&nbsp;20% of the sum of the principal amount of each Note plus the consideration paid for the associated Warrants by (ii)&nbsp;the conversion price for the Notes.
The Warrants have an exercise price equal to the conversion price and have a five-year exercise period. Assuming the lowest conversion price possible under the Notes, the Warrants will be exercisable for an aggregate of 1,075,933 shares of ARCA

qualification. There will be no U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax consequences to Nuvelo stockholders as a result of the merger. Assuming that the merger qualifies as a reorganization, ARCA stockholders will not recognize gain or loss for
U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes upon the exchange of shares of ARCA capital stock for shares of Nuvelo&#146; common stock, except with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares of Nuvelo common stock. Tax matters are highly
complex, and the tax consequences of the merger to a particular ARCA stockholder will depend in part on such stockholder&#146;s circumstances. Accordingly, you are urged to consult your own tax advisor for a full understanding of the tax

on June&nbsp;30, 2008 and combines the ARCA historical balance sheet at June&nbsp;30, 2008 with the Nuvelo historical condensed consolidated balance sheet at June&nbsp;30, 2008 and $8.75 million of notes payable issued by ARCA in October 2008, which
convert into common stock upon the closing of the proposed merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations data assume that the merger took place as of January&nbsp;1, 2007, and combines the historical results of Nuvelo
and ARCA for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2008 and the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007. The ARCA balance sheet information was derived from its unaudited balance sheet as of June 30, 2008 included herein. The Nuvelo balance sheet information
was derived from its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet included in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2008 and also included herein. The historical results of ARCA were derived from its unaudited statement of

statements was based on the market capitalization of Nuvelo as of June 30, 2008, the date on which the proposed merger occurred for purposes of these pro forma financial statements, and the fair values of its vested stock options and warrants
outstanding on that date. This was deemed the best estimate of the fair value of Nuvelo as the entity being acquired for accounting purposes on that date. The June 30, 2008 balance sheet of Nuvelo reflected approximately $70 million of cash, cash
equivalents, and marketable securities and aggregate net assets with a fair value of $53.1 million, which significantly exceeded Nuvelo&#146;s market capitalization at that date. The application of the rules governing the preparation of this
unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet results in significant excess of fair value of acquired assets over purchase price, or negative goodwill, on a pro forma basis, which would be allocated against certain assets of Nuvelo to reduce
their carrying value to zero and the residual amount recognized as a gain upon acquisition. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The final purchase price allocation will
change significantly from preliminary estimates. The actual purchase accounting upon consummation of the merger will be based on the fair value of the consideration paid and fair values of Nuvelo&#146;s assets and liabilities as determined at the
time of consummation. Nuvelo&#146;s market capitalization has experienced significant fluctuations during 2008 as a result of both market and company-specific factors, and such fluctuations may continue. Further, Nuvelo continues to use its cash and
other liquid assets to finance its ongoing operations. As a result, at the date the merger is consummated, Nuvelo&#146;s cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments are expected to be significantly less than at June 30, 2008, and its market
capitalization cannot be predicted. ARCA and Nuvelo will re-evaluate the determination of the purchase price at the time of merger consummation, taking into consideration both Nuvelo&#146;s market capitalization at the time of consummation, and may
consider alternative approaches, such as basing the purchase price on the fair value of Nuvelo&#146;s net assets, or based on the fair value of ARCA&#146;s common and redeemable convertible preferred stock rather than Nuvelo&#146;s common stock.
ARCA and Nuvelo do not anticipate that the final purchase accounting performed when the merger is consummated will result in a significant negative goodwill amount because the proposed merger is not considered a bargain purchase transaction. Please
see Note 2 to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements for further discussion. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA and Nuvelo currently have no products that have received regulatory approval for commercial sale. The process to develop, obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize potential product candidates is long,
complex and costly. Following the merger, Gencaro, which is currently the subject of an NDA awaiting FDA approval, will be the combined company&#146;s only product candidate at a late stage of clinical development. As a result, the combined
company&#146;s business is expected to be substantially dependent on its ability to obtain regulatory approval for and successfully commercialize Gencaro in a timely manner. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to Gencaro, the combined company will have two product candidates in clinical trials, NU172 and NU206. These product candidates must be
rigorously tested in clinical trials, and be shown to be safe and effective, before the FDA or other regulatory authorities outside the U.S. will consider them for approval. Failure to demonstrate that one or more of the combined company&#146;s
product candidates is safe and effective, or significant delays in demonstrating such safety and efficacy, could diminish the benefits of the merger. Failure to obtain marketing approval of one or more of the combined company&#146;s product
candidates from appropriate regulatory authorities, or significant delays in obtaining such approval, could diminish the benefits of the merger. If approved for sale, the combined company&#146;s product candidates must be successfully
commercialized. Failure to successfully commercialize one or more of the combined company&#146;s product candidates could diminish the benefits of the merger, and, in particular, if the NDA for Gencaro is not approved, or is substantially delayed,
or if the combined company is unable to successfully commercialize Gencaro, it may not be able to earn sufficient revenues to continue its business. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

several years, and that it will spend substantial amounts to complete the development, regulatory approval and commercialization of Gencaro and other product candidates and to license or acquire other product candidates. ARCA believes that, if the
merger is completed, existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet the combined company&#146;s projected operating requirements through 2009. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

prescribing process, an additional cost for the patient, the risk that the test results may not be rapidly available and the possibility that it may not be available at all hospitals and medical centers. Any one of these factors could affect

Market, impose various requirements on public companies, including those related to corporate governance practices. The combined company&#146;s management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these requirements.
ARCA&#146;s management, which will substantially continue as the management of the combined company, does not have recent experience in addressing these requirements. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase the combined company&#146;s

Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that the combined company maintain effective internal controls for financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. In particular, the combined company must perform system and process
evaluation and testing of its internal controls over financial reporting to allow management and the combined company&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm to report on the effectiveness of its internal controls over financial
reporting, as required by Section&nbsp;404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The combined company&#146;s compliance with Section&nbsp;404 will require that it incur substantial accounting and related expense and expend significant management efforts. The
combined company will need to hire additional accounting and financial staff to satisfy the ongoing requirements of Section&nbsp;404. Moreover, if the combined company is not able to comply with the requirements of Section&nbsp;404, or if the
combined company or its independent registered public accounting firm identifies deficiencies in its internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price of the combined company&#146;s stock could
decline and the combined company could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the Nasdaq Global Market, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

with uncertain results. Nuvelo has spent, and expects to continue to spend, significant amounts of time and money in the clinical development of its product candidates. It will take Nuvelo several years to complete its testing, and failure can occur
at any stage of testing. The results Nuvelo obtains in preclinical testing and early clinical trials may not be predictive of results that are obtained in later studies. Nuvelo may suffer significant setbacks in advanced clinical trials, even after
promising results in earlier studies. For example, in December 2006, Nuvelo announced that alfimeprase did not meet its primary endpoint in the first of two planned Phase 3 trials for the treatment of acute PAO and in the first of two planned Phase

ischemic stroke. Based on results at any stage of clinical trials, Nuvelo may decide to repeat or redesign a trial or discontinue development of one or more of Nuvelo&#146;s product candidates. If Nuvelo fails to adequately demonstrate the safety

all costs and expenses associated with Nuvelo&#146;s research and development of NU206. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On July&nbsp;31, 2006, Nuvelo entered into an
agreement with Archemix Corporation. Under the agreement, Archemix is responsible for the discovery of short-acting aptamers targeting the coagulation cascade for use in acute cardiovascular procedures, and Nuvelo is responsible for development and
worldwide commercialization of these product candidates. Under the agreement, Nuvelo made an upfront license fee payment to Archemix of $4.0 million. Nuvelo is also funding at least $5.25 million of Archemix&#146;s research in the area of
short-acting aptamer discovery over the first six years of the agreement. In addition, Nuvelo may have to make payments to Archemix totaling up to $35.0 million per development compound on the achievement of specified development and regulatory
milestones, along with potential royalty payments based on sales of licensed compounds. In August 2008, Nuvelo completed a Phase 1b proof-of-concept trial, in which NU172 rapidly produced and maintained anticoagulation with a rapid return toward
baseline after the infusion ended. Nuvelo anticipates initiating a Phase 2 study evaluating NU172 in CABG patients in the fourth quarter of 2008 or first quarter of 2009. If and when Nuvelo enrolls the first patient in a Phase 2 study of NU172, a
$3.0 million milestone fee becomes payable to Archemix. At the initiation of the first Phase 3 study for any licensed compound, Archemix has the option to elect to participate in profits from sales of the compound by funding its pro rata share of
prior and future product development and commercialization expenses, in lieu of receiving milestone payments and royalties with respect to that compound. Nuvelo also is obligated to purchase Archemix common stock having a value equal to the lesser
of $10.0 million or 15 percent of the total gross proceeds raised by Archemix in a qualified public offering of Archemix stock occurring within five years of the effective date of the new collaboration agreement. </FONT></P> <P

to enter into additional contractual relationships with third parties in order to (i)&nbsp;complete the Good Laboratory Practices, or GLP, toxicology and other studies necessary to file INDs with the FDA, (ii)&nbsp;produce a sufficient volume of
cGMP-grade material in order to conduct clinical trials of these other product candidates and (iii)&nbsp;fill and finish and label and package Nuvelo&#146;s material. Nuvelo cannot be certain that it will be able to complete these tasks on a timely
basis or that it will be able to obtain sufficient quantities of material or other manufacturing services on commercially reasonable terms. In addition, the failure of any of these third parties to perform their obligations may delay Nuvelo&#146;s
filing for an IND or impede Nuvelo&#146;s progress through the clinical trial phase. Any significant delay or interruption would have a material adverse effect on Nuvelo&#146;s ability to file an IND with the FDA and/or proceed with the clinical

and potentially lost revenues. In addition, if the facilities of such manufacturers do not pass a pre-approval plant inspection, the FDA will not grant pre-market approval of Nuvelo&#146;s product candidates. </FONT></P> <P

Nuvelo&#146;s clinical trials if they fail to perform with the speed and competency Nuvelo expects. Nuvelo&#146;s reliance on third-party contract research organizations to conduct research and testing, including GLP, and toxicology studies

fail to complete their contract research or testing on the anticipated schedule. In either case, the progress of Nuvelo&#146;s clinical programs may be delayed and Nuvelo&#146;s research and development costs may increase, which may in turn have a

competitive compensation packages. Because competition for employees in Nuvelo&#146;s field is intense, however, Nuvelo may be unable to retain its existing personnel or attract qualified individuals to fill open positions. In addition, in August
2007 and again in March 2008 Nuvelo reduced its workforce as part of its efforts to reduce operating expenses through prioritization of its development portfolio and streamlining its infrastructure. These reductions in Nuvelo&#146;s workforce,
together with its evaluation of strategic alternatives, may impair its ability to recruit and retain qualified employees and to effectively complete administrative and development functions. If Nuvelo needs to rehire terminated individuals or hire
individuals with similar skills, it may be unable to do so. Nuvelo&#146;s success also depends on the continued availability of outside scientific collaborators, including collaborators at research institutions, to perform research and develop
processes to advance and augment Nuvelo&#146;s internal research efforts. Competition for collaborators is intense. Nuvelo also relies on services provided by outside consultants. Attracting and retaining qualified outside consultants is
competitive, and, generally, outside consultants can terminate their relationship with Nuvelo at will. If Nuvelo does not retain qualified personnel, outside consultants and scientific collaborators, or if it experiences turnover or difficulties
recruiting new employees or outside consultants, Nuvelo&#146;s research and development programs could be delayed, and it could experience difficulties in generating sufficient revenue to maintain its business. </FONT></P> <P

manufacturing or marketing arrangements sufficient to commercialize Nuvelo&#146;s products. There can be no assurance that Nuvelo&#146;s clinical trials will be completed, or that it will make regulatory submissions or receive regulatory approvals

laboratory testing and animal studies. These programs may not move beyond their current stages of development. Even if Nuvelo&#146;s research does advance, Nuvelo will need to engage in certain additional preclinical development efforts to determine
whether a product is sufficiently safe and effective to enter clinical trials. Nuvelo has little experience with these activities with respect to protein candidates and may not be successful in developing these products. Consequently, there is no

technological development. Nuvelo&#146;s products, if successfully developed, will compete with a number of traditional drugs and therapies and with new products currently under development. Nuvelo also expects to face increased competition in the
future as new companies enter Nuvelo&#146;s markets. Research and discoveries by others may result in breakthroughs that render Nuvelo&#146;s potential products obsolete even before they begin to generate any revenue. The competitors for
Nuvelo&#146;s drugs currently in development will vary depending on the particular indication pursued, and may include major pharmaceutical, medical device and biotechnology firms, many of which have substantially greater research and product
development capabilities and financial, scientific, marketing and human resources than Nuvelo has. Nuvelo&#146;s lead clinical-stage product candidate, NU172, is an anticoagulant that has the potential for predictable anticoagulant effects and rapid
self-reversal. If approved, it could face competition from other drugs or devices that are used to anticoagulate a patient in the setting of medical or surgical procedures where human blood is exposed to foreign materials such as coronary artery
bypass graft surgery, kidney dialysis and a variety of vascular surgical and coronary interventions. Competition differs depending on the indication and includes, for example, heparin and its antidote, protamine, as well as Angiomax<FONT

potential biopharmaceutical products. Nuvelo may also be required to raise capital by granting rights to third parties to develop and market product candidates that Nuvelo would prefer to develop and market on its own, potentially reducing the

sufficient capital is not available, Nuvelo may be forced to delay, reduce the scope of, eliminate or divest one or more of Nuvelo&#146;s research or development programs. As an example, in August 2007, Nuvelo announced that it suspended the

received notice from Nasdaq indicating that, for 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for Nuvelo&#146;s common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Global Market. Nuvelo was
given 180 calendar days, or until October&nbsp;28, 2008, to regain compliance with this listing requirement, which would be accomplished if the bid price of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock closed at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive
business days. As of September&nbsp;30, 2008, the bid price of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock closed at $0.44 per share. The notice from Nasdaq also indicated that, if Nuvelo does not regain compliance by October&nbsp;28, 2008, Nasdaq will provide a
staff determination letter notifying Nuvelo that its common stock will be delisted, after which Nuvelo may appeal the staff determination to the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel. On October&nbsp;16, 2008, Nasdaq advised Nuvelo that it had

and liquidity. Nuvelo does not invest in derivative financial instruments, mortgage-backed securities or auction rate securities, and Nuvelo has not recorded any losses on Nuvelo&#146;s securities due to credit or liquidity issues. In 2007 and 2008,
rising delinquency and default rates on subprime mortgages and declining home prices had caused a significant decline in the value of residential mortgage-backed securities, which had negatively impacted the entire credit market in the U.S. In
recent months, certain other financial instruments had also sustained downgrade in credit ratings and decline in value. Further deterioration in the credit market may have an adverse effect on the fair value of Nuvelo&#146;s investment portfolio.

executive officers and other eligible employees, which was amended and restated in August 2007. The purpose of the plan is to provide for the payment of severance benefits and/or change in control benefits to certain of Nuvelo&#146;s eligible
employees, and the plan supersedes and replaces any change in control and/or severance plans adopted by Nuvelo previously. All of Nuvelo&#146;s executive employees at the level of vice president or above have been designated as participants in the
plan and Nuvelo&#146;s board of directors may designate other eligible individuals as participants. The plan provides that, upon a change in control of the company as defined under the plan, all Nuvelo stock options and stock awards held by a plan
participant will become fully vested. Such shares held by a plan participant will also become fully vested if the participant is terminated without cause, or constructively terminated, within one month preceding Nuvelo&#146;s change in control. If a
participant is terminated without cause or constructively terminated one month before or one year after Nuvelo&#146;s change in control, he or she will also be entitled to certain cash severance and continued medical benefits. In June 2008, the
compensation committee of Nuvelo&#146;s board of directors approved a Change in Control Severance Benefit Plan for Nuvelo&#146;s employees who are not eligible for benefits under the Executive Change in Control and Severance Benefit Plan, entitling

for the treatment of catheter occlusion, the closing price of one share of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock was $4.05 on the day of the announcement, as compared with a closing price of $19.55 on the trading day prior to the announcement. On
February&nbsp;9, 2007, Nuvelo, Inc. and certain of Nuvelo&#146;s former and current officers and directors were named as defendants in a purported securities class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New
York. The suit alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 related to the clinical trial results of alfimeprase, which Nuvelo announced on December&nbsp;11, 2006, and seeks damages on behalf of purchasers of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock
during the period between January&nbsp;5, 2006 and December&nbsp;8, 2006. Specifically, the suit alleges that Nuvelo misled investors regarding the efficacy of alfimeprase and the drug&#146;s likelihood of success. The plaintiff seeks unspecified
damages and injunctive relief. Three additional lawsuits were filed in the Southern District of New York on February&nbsp;16, 2007,&nbsp;March&nbsp;1, 2007 and March&nbsp;6, 2007, respectively. On April&nbsp;10, 2007, three separate motions to
consolidate the cases, appoint lead plaintiff, and appoint lead plaintiff&#146;s counsel were filed. On April&nbsp;18, 2007, Nuvelo filed a motion to transfer the four cases to the Northern District of California. The Court granted Nuvelo&#146;s
motion to transfer the cases to the Northern District of California in July 2007. Plaintiffs have filed motions for&nbsp;consolidation,&nbsp;lead plaintiff and lead plaintiff&#146;s counsel in the Northern District of California. Plaintiffs filed
their consolidated complaint in the Northern District of California on November&nbsp;9, 2007. Nuvelo filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs consolidated complaint on December&nbsp;21, 2007. Plaintiffs filed an opposition to Nuvelo&#146;s motion to
dismiss on February&nbsp;4, 2008. On June&nbsp;12, 2008, the Court held a hearing on the motion to dismiss. The motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint is still pending. Nuvelo currently cannot determine the impact that this litigation will
have on Nuvelo&#146;s business, results of operations or financial condition. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition, Variagenics, with which Nuvelo merged in 2003,
has been named as a defendant in a securities class action lawsuit alleging the failure to disclose additional and excessive commissions purportedly solicited by and paid to underwriters who are also named defendants in the lawsuit. Plaintiffs in
the suit allege that underwriters took these commissions and in exchange allocated shares of Variagenics&#146; stock to their preferred customers through alleged agreements with these preferred customers that tied the allocation of initial public
offering shares to agreements by the customers to make additional aftermarket purchases at pre-determined prices. As a result of Nuvelo&#146;s merger with Variagenics, Nuvelo is obligated to continue to defend against this litigation. Nuvelo
believes that any attorneys&#146; fees, loss or settlement payment with respect to this suit will not be material to Nuvelo&#146;s financial position or results of operations, and that any loss, settlement payment or attorneys&#146; fees accrued
with respect to the suit will be paid by Nuvelo&#146;s insurance provider. Because of a recent court ruling, the settlement class, as defined in the settlement papers, is no longer feasible. While a new complaint has not been filed against Nuvelo,
there are several &#147;focus&#148; cases against other issuers in which new complaints have been filed. Defendant issuers in the &#147;focus&#148; cases filed motions to dismiss the new complaints. On March&nbsp;26, 2008, the District Court issued
an order granting in part and denying in part the &#147;focus&#148; issuers motions to dismiss. The &#147;focus&#148; issuers had been advised that plaintiffs intended to file new complaints against Nuvelo, but none have been filed yet. Nuvelo could
be forced to incur material expenses in the litigation if the parties cannot achieve a settlement, and in the event there is an adverse outcome, Nuvelo&#146;s business could be harmed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

breach. Nuvelo&#146;s trade secrets could become known through other unforeseen means. Nuvelo depends on its collaborators and other third parties that license intellectual property to Nuvelo to protect its licensed intellectual property. These
collaborators and other third parties could fail to take a necessary step to protect Nuvelo&#146;s licensed intellectual property, which could seriously harm Nuvelo&#146;s intellectual property position. </FONT></P> <P

breaching any licenses that may relate to Nuvelo&#146;s technologies and products. Nuvelo is aware of third-party patents and proprietary rights that may relate to Nuvelo&#146;s technology. Nuvelo may be required to obtain licenses to patents or
other proprietary rights of others for itself, its collaboration partners and its service providers in order to conduct research, development or commercialization of some or all of Nuvelo&#146;s programs. Nuvelo plan to seek licenses, as it deem
appropriate, but it is possible that Nuvelo may infringe upon these patents or proprietary rights of third parties. If Nuvelo does not obtain these licenses, it may encounter delays in product market introductions, incur substantial costs while
Nuvelo attempts to design around existing patents or not be able to develop, manufacture or sell products. In response, third parties may assert infringement or other intellectual property claims against Nuvelo, its collaboration partners or its

SIZE="2">The preclinical and clinical development, testing, manufacture, safety, efficacy, labeling, storage, recordkeeping, advertising, promotion, sale, and marketing, and distribution of ARCA&#146;s product candidates are subject to extensive
regulation by the FDA and other regulatory authorities in the United States and elsewhere. These regulations also vary in important, meaningful ways from country to country. ARCA is not permitted to market a potential drug in the United States until
ARCA receives approval of a New Drug Application, or NDA, from the FDA. ARCA has not received an NDA approval from the FDA. There can be no guarantees with respect to ARCA&#146;s product candidates that clinical studies will support an ARCA NDA,
that the products will receive necessary regulatory approvals, or that they will prove to be commercially successful. </FONT></P> <P

demonstrate safety and efficacy in humans to the satisfaction of regulatory authorities through preclinical studies and adequate and well-controlled clinical trials of the product candidates. This process is expensive and can take many years, and
failure can occur at any stage of the testing. ARCA&#146;s failure to adequately demonstrate the safety and efficacy of its product candidates will prevent regulatory approval and commercialization of such products. With respect to Gencaro, the FDA
could determine that the preclinical studies and clinical trials conducted by or on Gencaro&#146;s behalf were inadequate, and such a determination would prevent regulatory approval and commercialization of Gencaro. For instance, ARCA filed an NDA
for Gencaro in July 2008, based primarily on a single Phase 3 trial. The FDA guidelines generally suggest that sponsors conduct two adequate and well-controlled studies to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of a product candidate such as Gencaro in
support of FDA approval. FDA interpretation of the statutory requirements also states that a single study may be sufficient to support approval if the FDA determines that, based on relevant science and other confirmatory evidence, there is strong
evidence to establish the safety and efficacy of the drug candidate using a single adequate and well-controlled study. If the FDA determines that the clinical data for Gencaro is not sufficiently strong to demonstrate Gencaro&#146;s safety and
efficacy for chronic heart failure, then Gencaro may not be approved by the FDA for ARCA&#146;s proposed indications, may be approved for a more limited indication, or the FDA may require ARCA to conduct additional studies before approving Gencaro
for chronic heart failure. Even if ARCA conducted additional studies and submitted the attendant data, FDA may ultimately decide that the NDA does not satisfy the criteria for approval. </FONT></P> <P

or carry out human clinical trials or those clinical trials fail to demonstrate clinical significance, ARCA will not likely be able to obtain FDA approval for product development candidates. ARCA&#146;s inability to successfully and effectively
complete clinical trials for any product candidates on schedule or at all will severely harm ARCA&#146;s business. Significant delays in clinical development could materially increase product development costs or allow ARCA&#146;s competitors to
bring products to market before it does, impairing ARCA&#146;s ability to effectively commercialize any future product candidates. ARCA does not know whether planned clinical trials will begin on time, will need to be redesigned or will be completed
on schedule, if at all. Clinical trials can be delayed for a variety of reasons, including: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:6px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

evaluation and mitigation strategy, or REMS, is necessary to ensure that the benefits of the drug outweigh the risks, ARCA may be required to include as part of the NDA a proposed REMS that may include a package insert directed to patients, a plan

although a new product may show promising results in preclinical or early human clinical trials, it may subsequently prove unfeasible or impossible to generate sufficient safety and efficacy data to obtain necessary regulatory approvals. The data
obtained from preclinical and clinical studies are susceptible to varying interpretations that may delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval, and the FDA and other regulatory authorities in the United States and elsewhere exercise substantial
discretion in the drug approval process. The numbers, size and design of preclinical studies and clinical trials that will be required for FDA or other regulatory approval will vary depending on the product candidate, the disease or condition for

concerning the safety of certain drug products, regulatory authorities, members of Congress, the Government Accountability Office, medical professionals and the general public have raised concerns abut potential drug safety issues. These events have
resulted in the withdrawal of certain drug products, revisions to certain drug labeling that further limit use of the drug products and establishment of risk management programs that may, for instance, restrict distribution of drug products. The
increased attention to drug safety issues may result in a more cautious approach by the FDA to clinical trials and approval. Data from clinical trials may receive greater scrutiny with respect to safety and the product&#146;s risk/benefit profile,
which may make the FDA or other regulatory authorities more likely to terminate clinical trials before completion, or require longer or additional clinical trials that may result in substantial additional expense, and a delay or failure in obtaining
approval or approval for a more limited indication than originally sought. Aside from issues concerning the quality and sufficiency of submitted preclinical and clinical data, FDA may be constrained by limited resources from reviewing and
determining the approvability of the Gencaro NDA by May&nbsp;31, 2009. Indeed, in early 2008, the FDA announced that due to a lack of resources, NDAs may not be reviewed within the performance goals under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act, and from
time to time, FDA has extended the review period for NDAs. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%;padding-bottom:3px;line-height:95%; vertical-align:top"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition, the
manufacture and tableting of Gencaro is done by third party suppliers, who must pass a pre-approval inspection of their facilities before ARCA can obtain marketing approval. The FDA could also request additional information or data, including data

NDA, ARCA has requested that the FDA approve Gencaro as a therapy that can be prescribed by physicians for patients with heart failure, and specifically for its effect on certain clinical outcomes for these heart failure patients. ARCA has also
requested that certain information be included in the prescribing information distributed with Gencaro that shows the effect of genetic differences in patients on the clinical results for Gencaro. The FDA could approve Gencaro, but without including
some or all of the prescribing information that ARCA has requested. For instance, FDA could approve Gencaro without some or all of the pharmacogenetic information in the labeling. This, in turn, could substantially and detrimentally impact
ARCA&#146;s ability to successfully commercialize Gencaro. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>ARCA has no manufacturing capacity which puts it at risk of lengthy and costly delays of

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The marketing and advertising of ARCA&#146;s drug products by its collaborators or ARCA will be regulated
by the FDA, certain state agencies or foreign regulatory authorities. Violations of these laws and regulations, including promotion of ARCA&#146;s products for unapproved uses or failing to disclose risk information, are punishable by criminal and
civil sanctions and may result in the issuance of enforcement letters or other enforcement action by the FDA, Department of Justice, state agencies, or foreign regulatory authorities that could jeopardize ARCA&#146;s ability to market the product.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to FDA, state or foreign regulations, the marketing of ARCA&#146;s drug products by ARCA or its collaborators will be
regulated by federal, state or foreign laws pertaining to health care &#147;fraud and abuse,&#148; such as the federal anti-kickback law prohibiting bribes, kickbacks or other remuneration for the order or recommendation of items or services
reimbursed by federal health care programs. Many states have similar laws applicable to items or services reimbursed by commercial insurers. Violations of these laws are punishable by criminal and civil sanctions, including, in some instances,
imprisonment and exclusion from participation in federal and state health care programs, including the Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans Affairs healthcare programs. Because of the far-reaching nature of these laws, ARCA may be required to discontinue
one or more of its practices to be in compliance with these laws. Health care fraud and abuse regulations are complex, and even minor irregularities can potentially give rise to claims that a statute or prohibition has been violated. Any violations
of these laws, or any action against us for violations of these laws, even if we successfully defend against it, could have a material adverse effect on ARCA&#146;s business, financial condition and results of operations. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA could also become subject to false claims litigation under federal statutes, which can lead to civil money penalties, restitution, criminal fines
and imprisonment, and exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal and state health care programs. These false claims statutes include the False Claims Act, which allows any person to bring a suit on behalf of the federal
government alleging submission of false or fraudulent claims, or causing to present such false or fraudulent claims, under federal programs or contracts claims or other violations of the statute and to share in any amounts paid by the entity to the
government in fines or settlement. These suits against pharmaceutical companies have increased significantly in volume and breadth in recent years. Some of these suits have been brought on the basis of certain sales practices promoting drug products
for unapproved uses. This new growth in litigation has increased the risk that a pharmaceutical company will have to defend a false claim action, pay fines or restitution, or be excluded from the Medicare, Medicaid, Veterans Affairs and other
federal and state healthcare programs as a result of an investigation arising out of such action. ARCA may become subject to such litigation and, if ARCA is not successful in defending against such actions, those actions may have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Additionally, the law or regulatory policies governing
pharmaceuticals may change. New statutory requirements may be enacted or additional regulations may be enacted that could prevent or delay regulatory approval of its product candidate. ARCA cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse
government regulation that may arise from future legislation or administrative action, either in the United States or elsewhere. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If ARCA,

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Based on discussions with the FDA, ARCA does not believe that additional clinical data are needed for the Gencaro Test submission. However, FDA may
require clinical data for the Gencaro Test submission and/or future products. Initiating and completing clinical trials necessary to support 510(k)s or PMAs, if required, for current or future products will be time consuming and expensive and the
outcome uncertain. Moreover, the results of early clinical trials are not necessarily predictive of future results, and any product we advance into clinical trials may not have favorable results in later clinical trials. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Conducting successful clinical studies may require the enrollment of large numbers of patients, and suitable patients may be difficult to identify and
recruit. Patient enrollment in clinical trials and completion of patient participation and follow-up depends on many factors, including: the size of the patient population; the number of patients to be enrolled; the nature of the trial protocol; the
attractiveness of, or the discomforts and risks associated with, the treatments received by enrolled subjects; the availability of appropriate clinical trial investigators, support staff, and proximity of patients to clinical sites; and the
patients&#146; ability to meet the eligibility and exclusion criteria for participation in the clinical trial and patient compliance. For example, patients may be discouraged from enrolling in clinical trials if the trial protocol requires them to
undergo extensive post-treatment procedures or follow-up to assess the safety and effectiveness of ARCA&#146;s products or if they determine that the treatments received under the trial protocols are not attractive or involve unacceptable risks or
discomforts. In addition, patients participating in clinical trials may die before completion of the trial or suffer adverse medical events unrelated to investigational products. </FONT></P> <P

combined company or ARCA may not adequately develop such protocols to support clearance and approval. Significant risk trials will require the submission and approval of an IDE from the FDA. There is no guarantee that the FDA will approve
ARCA&#146;s third-party suppliers&#146; or ARCA&#146;s future IDE submissions. Further, the FDA may require ARCA&#146;s third-party suppliers or ARCA to submit data on a greater number of patients than originally anticipated and/or for a longer
follow-up period or change the data collection requirements or data analysis applicable to our clinical trials. Delays in patient enrollment or failure of patients to continue to participate in a clinical trial may cause an increase in costs and
delays in the approval and attempted commercialization of future products or result in the failure of the clinical trial. In addition, despite considerable time and expense invested in such clinical trials, the FDA may not consider the data to be
adequate to demonstrate safety and efficacy. Such increased costs and delays or failures could adversely affect ARCA&#146;s third-party suppliers&#146;, the combined company&#146;s or ARCA&#146;s business, operating results and prospects.

have generic equivalents commercially available in the U.S. (Metoprolol Succinate and Carvedilol respectively). The price of the generic forms of these drugs will be less than the anticipated price of Gencaro, if approved. As a result, Gencaro may

unaware of existing patents that may be infringed by Gencaro, the genetic testing ARCA intends to use in connection with Gencaro or its other product candidates. Because patent applications can take many years to issue, there may be other currently

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA&#146;s competitive success will depend, in part, on ARCA&#146;s ability to obtain and maintain patent protection for its inventions, technologies and discoveries, including intellectual property that ARCA
licenses. The patent positions of biotechnology companies involve complex legal and factual questions, and ARCA cannot be certain that ARCA&#146;s patents and licenses will successfully preclude others from using ARCA&#146;s technology. ARCA could
incur substantial costs in seeking to enforce its proprietary rights against infringement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA may not be able to effectively protect its
intellectual property rights in some foreign countries, as many countries do not offer the same level of legal protection for intellectual property as the U.S. Furthermore, the patent applications describing ARCA&#146;s proprietary methods are filed
only in the U.S. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although Gencaro has an established patent strategy, the timing of the grant of a patent cannot be predicted. Patent
applications describing and seeking patent protection of methods, compositions or processes relating to proprietary inventions involving human therapeutics could require ARCA to generate data, which may involve substantial costs. ARCA&#146;s pending
patent applications may lack priority over others&#146; applications or may not result in the issuance of patents. Even if issued, ARCA&#146;s patents may not be sufficiently broad to provide protection against competitors with similar technologies
and may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%;padding-bottom:3px;line-height:95%; vertical-align:top"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">While the composition of matter

patient&#146;s receptor genotype. ARCA&#146;s NDA requested a label that will include a claim that efficacy varies based on receptor genotype and a recommendation in the prescribing information that prospective patients be tested for their receptor
genotype. Under applicable law, a generic bucindolol label would likely be required to include this recommendation as it pertains directly to the safe or efficacious use of the drug. Such a label could be considered as inducing infringement,
carrying the same liability as direct infringement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Nevertheless, these measures may not be adequate to safeguard the technology
underlying ARCA&#146;s product candidate. For example, employees, consultants and others who participate in the development of ARCA&#146;s products may breach their agreements with ARCA regarding its intellectual property, and ARCA may not have
adequate remedies for the breach. Third parties could fail to take a necessary step to protect ARCA&#146;s licensed intellectual property, which could seriously harm ARCA&#146;s intellectual property position. Even if the patents are granted, the
approved label may not contain language covered by the patents, or ARCA may be unsuccessful in enforcing them. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

competitors may develop competing products. Any issued patent may not be sufficient to prevent others from competing with ARCA; for instance, if the FDA does not require that Gencaro and any equivalent be labeled consistently with any patent
protection. Further, ARCA has trade secrets relating to Gencaro, and such trade secrets may become known or independently discovered. ARCA&#146;s issued patents and those that may issue in the future, or those licensed to ARCA, may be challenged,
opposed, invalidated or circumvented, which could limit ARCA&#146;s ability to stop competitors from marketing related products or the term of patent protection that ARCA may have for its product candidates. All of these factors may affect

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Extensive litigation regarding patents and other intellectual property rights has been common in the biopharmaceutical industry. Litigation may be necessary to assert infringement claims, enforce patent rights,
protect trade secrets or know-how and determine the enforceability, scope and validity of certain proprietary rights. The defense and prosecution of intellectual property lawsuits, U.S. Patent and Trademark Office interference proceedings, and
related legal and administrative proceedings in the U.S. and internationally involve complex legal and factual questions. As a result, such proceedings are costly and time-consuming to pursue, and their outcome is uncertain. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Regardless of merit or outcome, ARCA&#146;s involvement in any litigation, interference or other administrative proceedings could cause ARCA to incur
substantial expense and could significantly divert the efforts of ARCA&#146;s technical and management personnel. Any public announcements related to litigation or interference proceedings initiated or threatened against Nuvelo could cause
Nuvelo&#146;s stock price to decline. An adverse determination may subject ARCA to the loss of its proprietary position or to significant liabilities, or require ARCA to seek licenses that may include substantial cost and ongoing royalties. Licenses
may not be available from third parties, or may not be obtainable on satisfactory terms. An adverse determination or a failure to obtain necessary licenses may restrict or prevent ARCA from manufacturing and selling its products, if any. These
outcomes could materially harm ARCA&#146;s business, financial condition and results of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>If ARCA fails to attract and keep senior

SIZE="2">ARCA&#146;s success depends on its continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified management and clinical and scientific personnel and on its ability to develop and maintain important relationships with leading academic
institutions, clinicians and scientists. The loss of services of one or more of ARCA&#146;s members of senior management could delay or prevent the successful completion of the commercialization of Gencaro or in other ways harm ARCA&#146;s business.
In particular, the loss of the service of Richard Brewer, ARCA&#146;s president and chief executive officer, or Dr. Michael Bristow, ARCA&#146;s founder and chief science and medical officer, could substantially impair ARCA&#146;s future proposals.
To mitigate a portion of this risk, ARCA currently carries &#147;key person&#148; insurance on the life of Dr. Bristow in the amount of $1&nbsp;million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">There is significant competition from other companies and research and academic institutions for qualified personnel in the areas of ARCA&#146;s activities. Competition for personnel with biopharmaceutical skills is

management and a representative of Cooley Godward Kronish LLP, or Cooley, Nuvelo&#146;s legal counsel, were also present, the board discussed a variety of business opportunities, including potential corporate partnering, licensing and acquisition
opportunities and directed management to pursue various strategic alternatives and identify potential counterparties for a strategic transaction. Thereafter, Nuvelo engaged Jefferies&nbsp;&amp; Company, Inc., or Jefferies, to assist it in evaluating
its alternatives and render a fairness opinion should Nuvelo decide to proceed with a transaction. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In early April 2008, Jefferies and
Nuvelo management developed a list of 33 potential parties to be contacted regarding a possible business combination with Nuvelo, including four companies that had previously approached Nuvelo regarding such a transaction. In mid-April 2008,
Jefferies began contacting these parties to explore their interest in engaging in such discussions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Beginning in May 2008, public
information packages were sent to potential counterparties that had expressed an interest in engaging in business combination discussions. In mid-May 2008, at the direction of the Nuvelo board of directors, Jefferies began obtaining confidentiality
agreements from potential counterparties that were interested in receiving non-public information regarding Nuvelo in order to evaluate a potential transaction. Between May&nbsp;14, 2008 and August&nbsp;28, 2008, eight potential counterparties
executed such a confidentiality agreement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">At a Nuvelo board meeting on June&nbsp;4, 2008, at which members of management and
representatives of Cooley and Jefferies were also present, the board considered the status of discussions with potential counterparties. The Nuvelo board of directors instructed management, working with Jefferies, to distribute a process letter to
interested parties describing the next steps to be taken by those interested in continuing discussions with Nuvelo. A process letter describing these steps was sent to the then-interested parties on June&nbsp;9, 2008. As described below, the process
letter was sent to ARCA on June&nbsp;10, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Beginning on June&nbsp;9, 2008, Nuvelo, Jefferies and representatives of potential

September&nbsp;24, 2008, Jefferies delivered to the board of Nuvelo its oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing on such date, to the effect that, as of that date and based upon and subject to the various assumptions made, procedures
followed, matters considered and limitations described in its opinion, the Exchange Ratio, representing the amount of shares of Nuvelo common stock to be exchanged for ARCA capital stock in the merger pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement,

contemplated by the merger agreement as compared to any alternative transaction or opportunity that might be available to Nuvelo, nor does it address the underlying business decision by Nuvelo to engage in the merger or the terms of the merger
agreement or the documents referred to therein. Furthermore, Jefferies&#146; opinion does not constitute a recommendation as to how any holder of Nuvelo common stock should vote on the merger or any matter related thereto. In addition,
Jefferies&#146; opinion does not address, the fairness to, or any other consideration of, the holders of any class of securities or the creditors or other constituencies of Nuvelo or ARCA. The opinion also does not address the fairness of the amount
or nature of, or any other aspects relating to, any compensation to be received by any officers, directors or employees of any parties to the merger or any class of such persons, relative to the Exchange Ratio (representing the shares of Nuvelo

computing the exchange ratio that the &#147;Parent Trading Price&#148; (as defined in the merger agreement) was $0.39, the five day average closing share price of Nuvelo as of September&nbsp;19, 2008. Jefferies expressed no opinion as to the price
at which the shares of Nuvelo common stock will trade at any future time. Jefferies assumed no responsibility to update or revise its opinion based on circumstances or events occurring after the date of its opinion and disclaimed any undertaking or
obligation to advise any person of any change in any fact or matter affecting its opinion of which Jefferies becomes aware after the date of its opinion. All references to the merger agreement, the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement and other
agreements in any discussion of Jefferies&#146; fairness opinion in this proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation refer to such agreements as in effect on the date of Jefferies&#146; fairness opinion. </FONT></P> <P

material to its analysis of all legal and accounting advice given to Nuvelo and its board of directors, including, without limitation, advice as to the legal, accounting and tax consequences of the terms of, and transactions contemplated by, the
merger agreement to Nuvelo and its stockholders. In addition, in preparing its opinion, Jefferies did not take into account any tax consequences of the transaction to Nuvelo or ARCA. Jefferies assumed that the final form of the merger agreement
would be substantially similar to, and would not differ in any material respect from, the last draft reviewed by it. In addition, Jefferies assumed that the merger will be consummated in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, without
waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement and that, in the course of obtaining the necessary regulatory or third party approvals, consents, and releases (contractual or otherwise) for the merger, no delay,
limitations, restrictions or conditions, including any divestiture requirements or amendments or modifications, will be imposed that would have an adverse effect on Nuvelo, ARCA or the contemplated benefits of the merger. Jefferies further assumed,
with the Nuvelo board&#146;s consent, for purposes of its opinion that ARCA shall have received prior to the merger aggregate proceeds of at least $8,750,000 from the sale and issuance of the ARCA convertible notes and ARCA warrants pursuant to the
Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement. Jefferies also assumed that the shares of Nuvelo common stock to be issued in the merger to the stockholders of ARCA will be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market. </FONT></P> <P

interests of ARCA and Nuvelo stockholders, after giving effect to the merger. To perform the stand-alone valuation, Jefferies reviewed the share trading price history of Nuvelo and performed (i)&nbsp;a comparable company analysis, (ii)&nbsp;a
liquidation analysis of Nuvelo and a (iii)&nbsp;discounted cash flow analysis, in each case, as more fully described below. Jefferies&#146; analyses below assume 53,691,137 shares of Nuvelo common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of
August&nbsp;31, 2008. As illustrated below, the range of implied values per share of Nuvelo common stock on a stand-alone basis under the valuation methodologies described below was $0.42 to $0.86 per share, the former of which was the low end of
the range of share prices of Nuvelo common stock for the 90-day period ending September&nbsp;19, 2008 and the latter of which was the high end of the range of per share values derived from Jefferies&#146; discounted cash flow analysis. </FONT></P>

Jefferies, as part of its investment banking business, is regularly engaged in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, competitive biddings, secondary distributions of
listed and unlisted securities, private placements, financial restructurings and other financial services. Nuvelo selected Jefferies to act as its financial advisor because of Jefferies&#146; qualifications, reputation and experience. Pursuant to an
engagement letter between Nuvelo and Jefferies dated May&nbsp;12, 2008, Jefferies was paid a $50,000 fee upon its engagement by Nuvelo and a $500,000 fee upon delivery of its opinion. Jefferies also will receive a minimum $950,000 transaction fee
contingent upon consummation of the merger, which amount may increase in the event that the transaction value (computed based on the aggregate amount of cash held by Nuvelo at closing and the fair market value of any securities issued by Nuvelo to
ARCA stockholders in the merger) exceeds $100.0 million (which increase shall equal 1.5% of any such excess). Nuvelo has agreed to indemnify Jefferies against liabilities arising out of or in connection with the services rendered and to be rendered
by it in connection with the engagement and to reimburse Jefferies for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Jefferies in connection with its engagement. In the ordinary course of its business, Jefferies and its affiliates may trade or hold securities
of Nuvelo and/or its affiliates for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold long or short positions in those securities. During the two years preceding the date of its opinion, Jefferies
provided financial advisory services to Nuvelo in connection with an unrelated matter and received a customary retainer fee and reimbursement for its out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. In addition, Jefferies may seek to, in the future,
provide financial advisory and financial services to Nuvelo, ARCA, and/or their respective affiliates, for which Jefferies would expect to receive compensation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

to ARCA. The beneficial owner must, in these cases, have the registered owner, such as a broker, bank or other nominee, submit the required demand in respect of those shares. If shares are owned of record in a fiduciary capacity, such as by a
trustee, guardian or custodian, execution of a demand for appraisal should be made by or for the fiduciary; and if the shares are owned of record by more than one person, as in a joint tenancy or tenancy in common, the demand should be executed by
or for all joint owners. An authorized agent, including an authorized agent for two or more joint owners, may execute the demand for appraisal for a stockholder of record; however, the agent must identify the record owner or owners and expressly
disclose the fact that, in executing the demand, he or she is acting as agent for the record owner. A record owner, such as a broker, who holds shares as a custodian for others, may exercise the record owner&#146;s right of appraisal with respect to
the shares held for one or more beneficial owners, while not exercising this right for other beneficial owners. In that case, the written demand should state the number of shares as to which appraisal is sought. Where no number of shares is
expressly mentioned, the demand will be presumed to cover all shares held in the name of the record owner. In addition, the stockholder must continuously hold the shares of record from the date of making the demand through the effective time of the
merger. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If you hold your shares of ARCA capital stock in a brokerage account or in other custodian form and you wish to exercise appraisal

respect to which demands for appraisal rights have been received and the aggregate number of holders of these shares. This written statement will be mailed to the requesting stockholder within 10 days after the stockholder&#146;s written request is
received by the surviving corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal, whichever is later. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger, either the surviving corporation or any

stockholders, and ARCA, which will be the surviving corporation, has no present intent to file a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery. Accordingly, the failure of a stockholder to file a petition within the period specified could nullify the

their stock certificates to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply with that direction, the Delaware Court of Chancery may dismiss the proceedings as to that
stockholder. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">After determination of the stockholders entitled to appraisal of their shares, the Delaware Court of Chancery will appraise
the &#147;fair value&#148; of the shares owned by those stockholders. This value will be exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, but will include a fair rate of interest, if any, upon the
amount determined to be the fair value. When the value is determined, the Delaware Court of Chancery will direct the payment of the value, with interest thereon accrued during the pendency of the proceeding, if the Delaware Court of Chancery so

SIZE="2">In determining fair value, and, if applicable, a fair rate of interest, the Delaware Court of Chancery is required to take into account all relevant factors. In <I>Weinberger v. UOP, Inc.</I>, the Delaware Supreme Court discussed the
factors that could be considered in determining fair value in an appraisal proceeding, stating that &#145;proof of value by any techniques or methods which are generally considered acceptable in the financial community and otherwise admissible in
court&#148; should be considered, and that &#147;fair price obviously requires consideration of all relevant factors involving the value of a company.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Section&nbsp;262 provides that fair value is to be &#147;exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger.&#148; In Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. v. Technicolor, Inc., the Delaware
Supreme Court stated that this exclusion is a &#147;narrow exclusion [that] does not encompass known elements of value,&#148; but which rather applies only to the speculative elements of value arising from such accomplishment or expectation. In
Weinberger, the Delaware Supreme Court construed Section&nbsp;262 to mean that &#147;elements of future value, including the nature of the enterprise, which are known or susceptible of proof as of the date of the merger and not the product of
speculation, may be considered.&#148; </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">You should be aware that the fair value of your shares as determined under Section&nbsp;262 could be

appraisal proceeding may be imposed upon the surviving corporation and the stockholders participating in the appraisal proceeding by the Delaware Court of Chancery as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon the application of a
stockholder, the Delaware Court of Chancery may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys&#146; fees and the fees and expenses
of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all shares entitled to appraisal. In the absence of such a determination of assessment, each party bears its own expenses. Any stockholder who had demanded appraisal rights will not, after the
effective time of the merger, be entitled to vote shares subject to that demand for any purpose or to receive payments of dividends or any other distribution with respect to those shares, other than with respect to payment as of a record date prior
to the effective time; however, if no petition for appraisal is filed within 120 days after the effective time of the merger, or if the stockholder delivers a written withdrawal of his or her demand for appraisal and an acceptance of the terms of
the merger within 60 days after the effective time of the merger, then the right of that stockholder to appraisal will cease and that stockholder will be entitled to receive the merger consideration for shares of his or her ARCA capital stock
pursuant to the merger agreement. Any withdrawal of a demand for appraisal made more than 60 days after the effective time of the merger may only be made with the written approval of the surviving corporation. No appraisal proceeding in the Delaware
Court of Chancery will be dismissed as to any stockholder without the approval of the court. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The following discussion summarizes the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger that are expected to apply generally to ARCA
stockholders upon an exchange of their ARCA capital stock for Nuvelo common stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Nuvelo common stock. This summary is based upon current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the
Code, existing Treasury Regulations, and current administrative rulings and court decisions, all of which are subject to change and to differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. Any change could alter the tax consequences to
Nuvelo, ARCA, or the stockholders of ARCA, as described in this summary. This summary is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, and there can be no assurance that the IRS (or a court, in the event of an IRS challenge) will agree
with the conclusions stated herein. No ruling has been or will be requested from the IRS in connection with the merger. The discussion below does not address the following: the tax consequences of the mergers under U.S. federal non-income tax laws
or under state, local, or foreign tax laws; the tax consequences of transactions effectuated before, after, or at the same time as the mergers, whether or not they are in connection with the merger, including, without limitation, transactions in
which ARCA shares are acquired or Nuvelo shares are disposed of; the tax consequences to holders of options issued by ARCA that are assumed, replaced, exercised, or converted, as the case may be, in connection with the merger; or the tax
consequences of the receipt of Nuvelo shares other than in exchange for ARCA shares. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">No attempt has been made to comment on all U.S.

combination using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with GAAP. For accounting purposes, ARCA is considered to be acquiring Nuvelo in this transaction. Therefore, the aggregate consideration paid in connection with the merger, together
with the direct costs of acquisition paid by ARCA, will be allocated to Nuvelo&#146;s tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their fair market values. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements included in this
proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, assuming the merger will close on or prior to December&nbsp;31, 2008, and is recorded as a purchase pursuant to SFAS 141. However, if

141R, the following items likely would have a material impact on accounting for the business combination: (1)&nbsp;the asset related to in-process research and development would be treated as an indefinite-lived intangible asset and capitalized,
reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS 142, and if the related development is completed, considered a finite-lived asset and amortized to the statement of operations, and if the development is abandoned, would be written off; (2) the excess
of fair values of acquired net assets over the purchase price (if any) will not be allocated to reduce the carrying values of various asset, but instead, will be recorded as an ordinary gain in the statement of operations as opposed to an
extraordinary gain; (3)&nbsp;acquisition-related costs would not be part of the purchase price and, as a result, the impact to the pro forma balance sheet would be to reduce the purchase price and the related excess of fair value of acquired net
assets over purchase price, with a corresponding decrease to pro forma retained earnings; and (4)&nbsp;restructuring costs would be expensed as incurred. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

described above, the number of shares of ARCA capital stock issuable pursuant to outstanding options and warrants to purchase capital stock immediately prior to the effective time (other than warrants issued in connection with the Note and Warrant

Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated September&nbsp;24, 2008, as amended October 10, 2008, with certain holders of ARCA preferred stock pursuant to which ARCA sold, for an aggregate consideration of $8.75 million, its 6% Convertible Promissory
Notes due March&nbsp;31, 2009, or the Notes, and warrants, or the Warrants, to purchase a number of shares of ARCA&#146;s common stock as determined pursuant to the Warrants. The outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Notes will convert
into that number of shares of ARCA common stock immediately prior to the closing of the merger equal to the amount of unpaid principal and interest due as of the date of conversion divided by the conversion price. The conversion price is equal to
the lesser of: (i)&nbsp;$3.253 or (ii)&nbsp;the product of (a)&nbsp;the average closing price of Nuvelo common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding (but not including) the date the merger is
consummated and (b)&nbsp;the Exchange Ratio; provided, however that in no event will the conversion price be less than $1.6265. The number of shares of ARCA common stock subject to the Warrants issued in the convertible bridge note financing is
calculated by dividing (i)&nbsp;20% of the sum of the principal amount of each Note plus the consideration paid for the associated Warrants by (ii)&nbsp;the conversion price for the Notes. The Warrants have an exercise price equal to the conversion
price and have a five-year exercise period. Assuming the lowest conversion price possible under the Notes, the Warrants will be exercisable for an aggregate of 1,075,933 shares of ARCA common stock. </FONT></P> <P

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Nuvelo board of directors has unanimously approved a proposal to amend its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse
stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of its common stock. The board has recommended that this proposal be presented to its stockholders for approval. The text of the form of proposed amendment to Nuvelo&#146;s amended and restated
certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation as <I>Annex F</I>. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The proposed amendment to Nuvelo&#146;s amended and restated certificate of incorporation would effect a reverse stock split whereby a number of
outstanding shares of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock between and including 1 and 50, such number consisting only of whole shares, will be combined into one share of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock, with this exact number within the range to be determined by
the Nuvelo board of directors, subject to its obligation under the merger agreement to agree with ARCA on such determination. The Nuvelo board of directors believes that stockholder approval of an amendment granting the board this discretion, rather
than approval of a specified ratio, provides the Nuvelo board of directors with appropriate flexibility to react to then-current market conditions and, therefore, is in the best interests of Nuvelo and its stockholders. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">By approving this amendment, stockholders will approve a series of amendments to Nuvelo&#146;s amended and restated certificate of incorporation pursuant
to which any whole number of outstanding shares of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock between and including 1 and 50 would be combined into one share of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock, and authorize the Nuvelo board of directors to file only one such amendment,
as determined by the Nuvelo board of directors in the manner described herein, and to abandon each amendment not selected by the Nuvelo board of directors. The Nuvelo board of directors may also elect not to undertake any reverse stock split.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If approved by the stockholders, and following such approval, the Nuvelo board of directors determines that effecting a reverse stock
split is in the best interests of Nuvelo and its stockholders, the reverse stock split will become effective upon filing one such amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The amendment filed thereby will contain the number of
shares selected by the Nuvelo board of directors within the limits set forth in this proposal to be combined into one share of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If the board elects to effect a reverse stock split following stockholder approval, the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock would be reduced in accordance with an exchange ratio determined by the
Nuvelo board of directors within the limits set forth in this proposal. Except for adjustments that may result from the treatment of fractional shares as described below, each stockholder will hold the same percentage of Nuvelo&#146;s outstanding
common stock immediately following the reverse stock split as such stockholder held immediately prior to the reverse stock split. The par value of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock would remain unchanged at $0.001 per share. </FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">The Nuvelo board of directors believes that a reverse stock split may be desirable for a number of reasons. First, the Nuvelo board of directors believes that a reverse stock split may allow Nuvelo to remain listed on the Nasdaq Global
Market. Second, the Nuvelo board of directors believes that a reverse stock split could improve the marketability and liquidity of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Nuvelo&#146;s common stock is currently quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market. According to applicable Nasdaq rules, in a transaction constituting a &#147;reverse merger&#148; in which an issuer combines with a
non-Nasdaq entity, resulting in a change of control of the issuer and potentially allowing the non-Nasdaq entity to obtain a Nasdaq listing, the issuer must apply for initial inclusion on the applicable Nasdaq market. The merger agreement </FONT>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">
<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">requires, as a condition to closing of the merger, that Nuvelo have received conditional approval to list the shares issuable in connection with the merger
on the Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Global Select Market or Nasdaq Capital Market. The listing standards of the Nasdaq Global Market require, among other things, a $5.00 per share minimum bid upon the effective time of the merger and the listing
standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market require, among other things, a $4.00 per share minimum bid upon the effective time of the merger. Nuvelo intends to file an initial listing application for the Nasdaq Global Market in connection with the
merger. On October 27, 2008 Nuvelo&#146;s common stock closed at $0.33 per share. Therefore, the reverse stock split is necessary in order to consummate the merger. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to initial listing requirement for the Nasdaq Global Market that Nuvelo must satisfy in connection with the merger, in order for Nuvelo common stock to continue to be quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market
after the completion of the merger, Nuvelo must satisfy certain listing maintenance standards established by the Nasdaq Global Market. Among other things, if the closing bid price of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock is under $1.00 per share for 30
consecutive trading days and does not thereafter reach $1.00 per share or higher for a minimum of ten consecutive trading days during the 180 calendar days following notification by Nasdaq, Nasdaq may delist Nuvelo&#146;s common stock from trading
on the Nasdaq Global Market. On May&nbsp;1, 2008, Nuvelo received a letter from Nasdaq advising it that Nuvelo&#146;s common stock had not met the Nasdaq Global Market&#146;s minimum bid price requirement for 30 consecutive trading days and that, if
Nuvelo was unable to demonstrate compliance with this requirement during the 180 calendar days ending October&nbsp;28, 2008, its common stock would be delisted at that time, however, such delisting would be stayed pending any appeal Nuvelo makes to
Nasdaq. On October&nbsp;16, 2008, Nasdaq announced that it had suspended the enforcement of its rules requiring a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share through January&nbsp;16, 2009. As a result of this suspension, Nuvelo does not expect to receive a
staff determination letter with respect to the delisting of Nuvelo common stock unless it has failed to demonstrate compliance with the minimum bid requirement on or before January&nbsp;30, 2009. In the event that Nuvelo receives a determination
letter from the staff at Nasdaq with respect to its non-compliance with the minimum bid requirement, Nuvelo expects to appeal such determination and present a plan for compliance to Nasdaq that includes the consummation of the merger and the
implementation of the reverse stock split. The Nuvelo board of directors expects that a reverse stock split of its common stock will increase the market price of its common stock so that Nuvelo is able to achieve the initial listing requirements for
the Nasdaq Global Market upon completion of the merger and thereafter maintain compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price listing standard for the foreseeable future. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the market price
per share following the merger and the reverse stock split will remain in excess of the minimum bid price for a sustained period of time. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Nuvelo common stock will not be delisted due to a failure to
meet other continued listing requirements even if the market price per post-reverse split share of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock remains in excess of the minimum bid requirement. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Nuvelo board of directors also believes that the increased market price of Nuvelo common stock expected as a result of implementing a reverse stock
split will improve the marketability and liquidity of Nuvelo common stock and will encourage interest and trading in Nuvelo common stock. Because of the trading volatility often associated with low-priced stocks, many brokerage houses and
institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. Some of those policies and
practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Additionally, because brokers&#146; commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than
commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price per share of Nuvelo common stock can result in individual stockholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if the
share price were substantially higher. It should be noted that the liquidity of Nuvelo common stock may be harmed by the proposed reverse stock split given the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the reverse stock split. The
Nuvelo board of directors is hopeful, however, that the anticipated higher market price will reduce, to some extent, the negative effects of the policies and practices of institutional investors and brokerage houses described above on the liquidity
and marketability of the common stock. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">After the effective date of the proposed reverse stock split, each stockholder will own a reduced number of shares of Nuvelo common stock. However, the
proposed reverse stock split will affect all of Nuvelo&#146;s stockholders uniformly and will not affect any stockholder&#146;s percentage ownership interests in Nuvelo, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in any of
Nuvelo&#146;s stockholders owning a fractional share as described below. Proportionate voting rights and other rights and preferences of the holders of Nuvelo common stock will not be affected by the proposed reverse stock split (other than as a
result of the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares). For example, a holder of 2% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Nuvelo common stock immediately prior to reverse stock split would continue to hold 2% of the voting power of
the outstanding shares of Nuvelo common stock immediately after the reverse stock split. The number of stockholders of record will not be affected by the proposed reverse stock split (except to the extent that any stockholder holds only a fractional
share interest and receives cash for such interest after the proposed reverse stock split). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The amendment to Nuvelo&#146;s amended and
restated certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split will not change the number of authorized shares of Nuvelo common stock. As a result, one of the effects of the reverse stock split will be to effectively increase the proportion
of authorized shares which are unissued relative to those which are issued. This effective increase will occur even if the proposal to amend Nuvelo&#146;s amended and restated certificate to increase the authorized shares of common stock to
250&nbsp;million is not approved. This could result in the combined company being able to issue more shares without further stockholder approval. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">The proposed reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under Nuvelo&#146;s Stock Option Plan, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan, Non-Qualified Employee
Stock Purchase Plan, 2002 Equity Incentive Plan, and 2004 Equity Incentive Plan in proportion to the exchange ratio selected by the Nuvelo board of directors within the limits set forth in this proposal. Nuvelo also has certain outstanding stock
options and warrants to purchase shares of Nuvelo common stock. Under the terms of the outstanding stock options and warrants, the proposed reverse stock split will effect a reduction in the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of
such stock options and warrants in proportion to the exchange ratio of the reverse stock split and will effect a proportionate increase in the exercise price of such outstanding stock options and warrants. In connection with the proposed reverse
stock split, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of outstanding stock options will be rounded to the nearest whole share and no cash payment will be made in respect of such rounding. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If a proposed reverse stock split is implemented, it will increase the number of stockholders of Nuvelo who own &#147;odd lots&#148; of less than 100
shares of Nuvelo common stock. Brokerage commission and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally higher than the costs of transactions of more than 100 shares of common stock. Accordingly, a reverse stock split may not achieve the
desired results of increasing marketability and liquidity of Nuvelo common stock that have been outlined above. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Nuvelo common stock is
currently registered under Section&nbsp;12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Nuvelo is subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Securities Exchange Act. The proposed reverse stock split will not affect
the registration of the common stock under the Securities Exchange Act. If the proposed reverse stock split is implemented, and Nuvelo&#146;s initial listing application with the Nasdaq Global Market is approved, Nuvelo common stock will continue to
be reported on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol &#147;NUVO&#148; (although Nasdaq would likely add the letter &#147;D&#148; to the end of the trading symbol for a period of 20 trading days to indicate that the reverse stock split has
occurred). It is expected that following the merger, the combined company will change its name to ARCA biopharma, Inc and that its trading symbol will be changed. ARCA has reserved the ticker symbol &#147;ARCB&#148; for this purpose. </FONT></P> <P

(within the limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions that could make a change in control or takeover of Nuvelo difficult. For example, additional shares could be issued by Nuvelo so as to dilute the stock ownership or voting
rights of person seeking to obtain control of Nuvelo. Similarly, the issuance of additional shares to certain persons allied with Nuvelo&#146;s management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove Nuvelo&#146;s management by

biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving the lives of patients through the discovery, development and commercialization of novel drugs for acute cardiovascular disease, cancer and other debilitating medical conditions. Nuvelo&#146;s
development pipeline includes NU172, a direct thrombin inhibitor that has completed Phase 1 development for use as a short-acting anticoagulant during medical or surgical procedures, and Phase 1 clinical candidate NU206, a recombinant, secreted
protein for the potential treatment of gastrointestinal, or GI, diseases, including cancer therapy induced mucositis and inflammatory bowel disease, in addition to bone disease and wound healing. In addition, Nuvelo has research programs in leukemia
therapeutic antibodies and Wnt signaling pathway therapeutics. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>NU172 </I></B></FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">NU172 is a short-acting aptamer, a single-stranded nucleic acid that forms a well-defined three-dimensional shape conceptually similar to an antibody.
NU172 was designed to directly inhibit thrombin&#146;s ability to stimulate blood clot formation in the setting of medical or surgical procedures where human blood is exposed to foreign materials. Specifically, NU172 is being studied as a potential
short-acting anticoagulant for use during procedures such as coronary artery bypass graft, or CABG, surgery, kidney dialysis and a variety of vascular surgical and coronary interventions. Approximately 450,000 CABG procedures and 50&nbsp;million
dialysis procedures are performed annually in the U.S. In these procedures, heparin is often paired with its antidote protamine as the anticoagulation effect of heparin needs to be reversed once the procedure has been completed. Data from the Phase
1 trial and preclinical studies suggest that NU172 has the potential to produce rapid and predictable onset and offset of anticoagulation, work in stagnant blood, avoid thrombocytopenia, and has the potential for non-renal clearance. Due to its
short half-life, the effect of NU172 can be rapidly reversed without the need for an antidote. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In August 2008, Nuvelo completed the Phase
1b proof-of-concept trial, demonstrating that NU172 rapidly produced and maintained anticoagulation with a rapid return toward baseline after the infusion ended. The single-center, Phase 1b trial examined the safety, tolerability and
pharmacokinetics of intravenous bolus plus infusion dosing of NU172 in 24 healthy male volunteers. Volunteers were given a 2 mg/kg bolus dose followed by escalating infusion doses of NU172 for four hours. In all four cohorts, NU172 produced
dose-dependent increases in anticoagulation, measured by activated clotting time, or ACT, prothrombin time, or PT, and activated partial thromboplastin time, or aPTT. The highest infusion dose rate tested, 6.0 mg/kg/hr, resulted in an average ACT
per subject ranging from 373 to 414 seconds and an increase of approximately three times baseline. Average PT values per subject ranged from 56 to 92 seconds and had an increase of approximately five times baseline. Average aPTT values per subject
ranged from 130 to 178 seconds and had an increase of approximately five times baseline. All measurements were maintained stably throughout the four-hour infusion. Once the infusion ended, the ACT and other coagulation parameters showed a rapid
return toward baseline, consistent with the short plasma half-life of NU172 observed in the Phase 1a trial. In addition, NU172 was well-tolerated with no serious adverse events. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Nuvelo anticipates initiating a Phase 2 study evaluating NU172 in CABG patients in the fourth quarter of 2008 or first quarter of 2009. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Nuvelo is developing NU172 through a collaboration with Archemix Corporation, under which Nuvelo is responsible for development and worldwide
commercialization of NU172 and other potential product candidates that may be developed under this collaboration. In February 2008, Nuvelo paid Archemix a $1.0 million milestone fee in connection with the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 1
trial for NU172. If Nuvelo enrolls the first patient in a Phase 2 trial of NU172, which Nuvelo expects may occur before the second quarter of 2009, Nuvelo will be obligated to pay Archemix a $3.0 million milestone fee. </FONT></P> <P

tissues including the GI epithelium and bone. NU206 works by antagonizing an inhibitor of the Wnt pathway, DKK1, thereby turning on the pathway. Preclinical studies suggest it can promote growth and repair in animal models of radiation or cancer
chemotherapy induced GI injury, inflammatory bowel disease, bone disease and wound healing. In animal models of GI disease, the effect of NU206 was transient and reversible in normal tissue. Once administration of NU206 is stopped, the epithelium of

chimeric antibody, or IgG1, and conducted extensive ex vivo and preclinical studies. NTB-A mAb is a potent cytotoxic agent against B lymphocytes from CLL patients. NTB-A mAb also acts as a potent anti-cancer agent in mouse xenograft models. In
addition to NTB-A mAb, Nuvelo identified two mAb targets that Nuvelo is currently studying for the treatment of AML. Nuvelo has developed mAbs (NU2444 and NU10458) against both targets, conducted ex vivo cytotoxic assays on blast cells from AML

potential in diseases that are dependent on the Wnt pathway for restoration of homeostasis or tissue repair. RSpo proteins are highly potent therapeutic agents in murine colitis and mucositis models and are currently being assessed in additional
indications including wound healing, osteolytic lesions and cancer. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">RSpo proteins are novel regulators of the Wnt pathway and were first
identified by Nuvelo as potent gastrointestinal mitogens in transgenic mice. Nuvelo has recently demonstrated that RSpo proteins regulate the Wnt pathway by antagonizing the Wnt inhibitor DKK1 and subsequently control the cell surface levels of
LRP5/6. Numerous studies have implicated DKK1 as a key negative regulator in bone remodeling in diseases such as osteoarthritis and multiple myeloma. Therefore, RSpo proteins have the potential to be exciting therapeutic options to improve bone
restoration. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to RSpo proteins, Nuvelo is currently developing mAbs against DKK1 and key receptors in Wnt signaling including

SIZE="2">On February&nbsp;9, 2007, Nuvelo, Inc. and certain of Nuvelo&#146;s former and current officers and directors were named as defendants in a purported securities class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York. The suit alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 related to the clinical trial results of alfimeprase, which we announced on December&nbsp;11, 2006, and seeks damages on behalf of purchasers of Nuvelo&#146;s
common stock during the period between January&nbsp;5, 2006 and December&nbsp;8, 2006. Specifically, the suit alleges that we misled investors regarding the efficacy of alfimeprase and the drug&#146;s likelihood of success. The plaintiff seeks
unspecified damages and injunctive relief. Three additional lawsuits were filed in the Southern District of New York on February&nbsp;16, 2007,&nbsp;March&nbsp;1, 2007 and March&nbsp;6, 2007, respectively. On April&nbsp;10, 2007, three separate
motions to consolidate the cases, appoint lead plaintiff, and appoint lead plaintiff&#146;s counsel were filed. On April&nbsp;18, 2007, Nuvelo filed a motion to transfer the four cases to the Northern District of California. The Court granted
Nuvelo&#146;s motion to transfer the cases to the Northern District of California in July 2007. Plaintiffs have filed motions for consolidation, lead plaintiff and lead plaintiff&#146;s counsel in the Northern District of California. Plaintiffs
filed their consolidated complaint in the Northern District of California on November&nbsp;9, 2007. Nuvelo filed a motion to dismiss plaintiffs consolidated complaint on December&nbsp;21, 2007. Plaintiffs filed an opposition to Nuvelo&#146;s motion
to dismiss on February&nbsp;4, 2008. On June&nbsp;12, 2008, the Court held a hearing on the motion to dismiss. The motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint is still pending. Nuvelo currently cannot determine the impact that this litigation will

a derivative suit that had been filed in the Superior Court for California, San Mateo County, by an alleged individual stockholder of Nuvelo, purportedly on behalf of Nuvelo against certain of Nuvelo&#146;s current and former officers and directors.
The complaint alleges among other claims, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to Nuvelo by issuing or failing to prevent the issuance of purportedly false and misleading statements between January&nbsp;5, 2006 and December&nbsp;11,
2006 relating to the clinical trial results of alfimeprase, which Nuvelo announced on December&nbsp;11, 2006, and that certain defendants benefited from these actions. On April&nbsp;18, 2007, Nuvelo filed a demurrer to the complaint on the ground
that plaintiff was not excused from issuing a demand to the board prior to filing the lawsuit. Plaintiffs filed oppositions to Nuvelo&#146;s demurrer, and Nuvelo has subsequently filed replies to Plaintiffs&#146; oppositions. The Court heard this
motion on July&nbsp;30, 2007, and granted Nuvelo&#146;s demurrer, but also granted plaintiffs the opportunity to file an amended complaint. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on October&nbsp;15, 2007. Nuvelo filed its reply to their amended
complaint on December&nbsp;6, 2007. The Court heard the motion on December&nbsp;17, 2007. On January&nbsp;2, 2008, the Superior Court for California, San Mateo County, entered final judgment dismissing in its entirety, with prejudice, the second

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The complaint purportedly is filed on behalf of persons purchasing Variagenics&#146; stock between July&nbsp;21, 2000 and December&nbsp;6, 2000, and alleges
violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section&nbsp;10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint alleges that, in connection with
Variagenics&#146; July&nbsp;21, 2000 initial public offering, or IPO, the defendants failed to disclose additional and excessive commissions purportedly solicited by and paid to the underwriter defendants in exchange for allocating shares of
Variagenics&#146; stock to preferred customers and alleged agreements among the underwriter defendants and preferred customers tying the allocation of IPO shares to agreements to make additional aftermarket purchases at predetermined prices.
Plaintiffs claim that the failure to disclose these alleged arrangements made Variagenics&#146; registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC in July 2000 and the prospectus, a part of the registration statement, materially false and
misleading. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages. On or about April&nbsp;19, 2002, an amended complaint was filed which makes essentially the same allegations. On or about July&nbsp;15, 2002, Variagenics and the individuals filed a motion to dismiss.
Nuvelo is involved in this litigation as a result of Nuvelo&#146;s merger with Variagenics in January 2003. On July&nbsp;16, 2003, Nuvelo&#146;s board of directors approved a settlement proposal initiated by the plaintiffs. However, because of a
recent court ruling, the settlement class, as defined in the settlement papers, is no longer feasible. While a new complaint has not been filed against Nuvelo, there are several &#147;focus&#148; cases against other issuers in which new complaints
have been filed. Defendant issuers in the &#147;focus&#148; cases filed motions to dismiss the new complaints. On March&nbsp;26, 2008, the District Court issued an order granting in part and denying in part the &#147;focus&#148; issuers motions to
dismiss. The &#147;focus&#148; issuers had been advised that plaintiffs intended to file new complaints against Nuvelo, but none have been filed yet. Nuvelo believes that any attorneys&#146; fees, loss or settlement payment with respect to this suit
will be paid by Nuvelo&#146;s insurance provider. However, it is possible that Nuvelo could be forced to incur material expenses in the litigation if the parties cannot achieve a settlement, and, in the event of an adverse outcome, Nuvelo&#146;s
business could be harmed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

biopharmaceutical company developing genetically-targeted therapies for heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases. ARCA&#146;s first product candidate is Gencaro (bucindolol hydrochloride), a pharmacologically unique beta-blocker and mild
vasodilator, being developed for chronic heart failure, or CHF, and other indications. Gencaro is an oral tablet formulation, dosed twice daily. ARCA has identified common genetic variations that predict patient response to Gencaro. Subject to FDA
approval, ARCA, through its partnership with Laboratory Corporation of America, or LabCorp, anticipates introducing a test for these genetic markers concurrent with the market launch of Gencaro, potentially making Gencaro the first
genetically-personalized cardiovascular drug. When prescribed using these markers, ARCA believes that Gencaro can become an important new therapy for many chronic heart failure patients, with the potential for good clinical outcomes and good
tolerability in those patients with a favorable genetic profile. In September 2008, the FDA formally accepted for filing ARCA&#146;s New Drug Application, or NDA, for Gencaro as a potential treatment for CHF. In accordance with the Prescription Drug
User Free Act, or &#147;PDUFA&#148;, the FDA&#146;s goal is to complete and review all materials regarding Gencaro by May&nbsp;31, 2009. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">Chronic heart failure is one of the largest health care problems in the United States and the rest of the world. It is estimated that there are currently about 6&nbsp;million people in the United States with CHF, and about 550,000 new cases
are diagnosed annually. Beta-blockers are part of the current standard of care for CHF, and are considered to be among the most effective drug classes for the disease. However, a significant percentage of eligible patients in the United States is
not being treated, or does not tolerate or respond well to those beta-blockers currently approved for the treatment of CHF. Under current treatment practice, determining whether a patient is responding well or tolerating beta-blockade can be a
lengthy process, and an adverse clinical event is often the first significant evidence that the therapy is not working. ARCA believes there is an opportunity for new heart failure therapies with improved efficacy, response rates and tolerability,
and for which individual patient response can be better predicted prior to therapy. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Gencaro was the subject of a major, U.S. based heart
failure Phase 3 trial, which will provide the primary basis for approval of Gencaro in the U.S. ARCA anticipates that the FDA will reach a decision on the approvability of Gencaro in the second or third quarter of 2009. Subject to FDA approval on
this schedule, ARCA plans to commence commercial sales of Gencaro in the fourth quarter of 2009, or the first quarter of 2010. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA has
collaborated with LabCorp, to develop the Gencaro Test, a companion test for the genetic markers that predict clinical response to Gencaro. The proposed use of the Gencaro Test, if cleared and approved by FDA, will be to enable a physician to
determine, prior to therapy, whether a patient is likely to have a good response to Gencaro. The Gencaro Test is expected to be submitted through the Premarket Approval, or PMA, process. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA holds worldwide rights to Gencaro and plans to commercialize the drug in the U.S. through its own specialized sales force. ARCA&#146;s commercial
effort in the United States will focus on cardiologists specializing in heart failure, and selected other physicians. ARCA may seek partners to assist it in commercializing Gencaro in international markets. ARCA believes that Gencaro will be covered
by statutory exclusivity following commercial launch, and will also potentially have protection under patent applications, which ARCA believes will extend market exclusivity substantially. ARCA also plans to pursue several significant follow-on
indications for Gencaro, including various forms of cardiac arrhythmias. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA believes that its expertise in cardiovascular

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">CHF is one of the world&#146;s most significant health care challenges. Industry sources estimate that about 6&nbsp;million Americans are living with CHF
and nearly 550,000 new patients are diagnosed annually. In addition, CHF is the underlying reason for approximately 12 to 15&nbsp;million annual visits to physicians, 6.5&nbsp;million annual hospital days and over $34 billion in direct and indirect
healthcare costs. Some sources estimate that the number of chronic heart failure patients in countries within the European Union is significantly higher than in the U.S. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Medical therapy has made progress in treating CHF, but morbidity and mortality remain high. The current standard of care for CHF involves the use of various therapies that operate to inhibit the activity of the
renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, which include angiotensin converting enzyme, or ACE, inhibitors, , angiotensin II receptor blockers, or ARB&#146;s, and aldosterone receptor antagonists and diuretics, as well as drugs in the class known as
beta-blockers. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Beta-blockers are named for their characteristic mechanism of binding to certain receptors in the nervous system of the
heart, and in doing so blocking those receptors from being activated by another molecule. This drug class is part of the current standard of care in patients with CHF and left ventricular dysfunction. The American Heart Association and the American
College of Cardiology physician guidelines for the treatment of CHF state the following: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Beta-blockers should be prescribed
to all patients with stable heart failure due to reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, unless they have a contraindication to their use or have been shown to be unable to tolerate treatment with the drugs. Because of favorable effects of
beta-blockers on survival and disease progression, treatment with a beta-blocker should be initiated as soon as left ventricular dysfunction is diagnosed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The benefits of beta-blockade are well established and applicable to the majority of the CHF population. Beta-blockers are effective in mortality reduction and are considered to be the most effective drugs for CHF.
However, approximately 40% of eligible CHF patients are not being treated with beta-blockers in the U.S. In the European Union, it is estimated that 50% of eligible chronic heart failure patients are not being treated with beta-blockers.<B> </B>ARCA
believes this lack of adoption may be due in part to the fact or perception that a significant percentage of chronic heart failure patients do not tolerate the beta-blockers currently approved for CHF, or do not respond well to them. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Moreover, it is difficult to predict how an individual patient will respond to a beta-blocker, and this creates particular issues in the treatment of
CHF. The current standard of practice in prescribing a beta-blocker to a CHF patient involves a multi-week- or multi-month-long process in which the dosage is gradually increased to allow the patient to adjust to the therapy, and to determine if the
patient is responding positively. This is necessary because the therapeutic mechanism of this drug class involves the inhibition of mechanisms in the failing heart that initially help the heart to compensate for diminished cardiac function, and
because it can take a substantial period of time for the therapy to show benefit. The dosage is generally increased gradually over time to avoid withdrawing these compensatory mechanisms too abruptly. As a result, patients newly introduced to
beta-blocker therapy often do not feel better, or even feel worse, and it can be weeks or months before there is objective evidence of therapeutic benefit. Because of these factors, it can be difficult for the physician to determine whether a
patient is tolerating or responding positively to the therapy, and a serious adverse event, such as a hospitalization for an acute episode, or death, may be the first significant indication that the patient is not responding well. Accordingly, ARCA
believes there is a substantial need for new heart failure therapies that have improved efficacy, response rates and better tolerability, and for which response and tolerability can be better predicted prior to the onset of therapy. ARCA believes
Gencaro can help to address these unmet needs. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Bucindolol was originally developed by Bristol-Myers Squibb for hypertension, and was licensed in the early 1990&#146;s to Intercardia, a
biopharmaceutical company. Around the time of completion of the Phase 2 clinical trials with bucindolol, a group of leading heart failure researchers proposed to The U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs Cooperative Clinical Studies Program a large
mortality study of beta-blockers in chronic heart failure. This grant application was approved, and shortly thereafter the U.S. National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) agreed to join in the sponsorship of the trial, known as the
Beta-Blocker Evaluation of Survival Trial, or BEST. The Steering Committee of the BEST trial selected bucindolol as the agent to be tested against placebo, and Intercardia joined the trial as a sponsor. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The BEST trial was a double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study of bucindolol on mortality and morbidity in an advanced chronic heart failure
population. Most of the patients were from the United States. The basis for the selection of bucindolol as the tested &szlig;-blocker included its Phase 2 clinical results and its high tolerability in more advanced CHF patients. The trial was
planned to run four and one-half years, and enroll 2,800 patients. Under the umbrella of the BEST trial substudies program, a DNA bank and substudy was created, and 1,040 of the BEST patients participated by providing blood for DNA analysis. The DNA
bank provided data for the DNA substudy of BEST patients conducted by Drs. Bristow and Liggett. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The BEST trial began in 1995 and enrolled
a total of 2,708 chronic heart failure patients. The patients were the most advanced ever studied in a large mortality heart failure trial based on baseline systolic blood pressure and other criteria, and disease clinical stability was not an entry
criterion for the trial. The primary endpoint of the BEST trial was total mortality and the prespecified main secondary endpoint was progression of heart failure, defined as heart failure death, cardiac transplant, heart failure hospitalization, or
emergency room visit for the treatment of worsening heart failure not requiring hospitalization. Other prespecified secondary endpoints included death from cardiovascular causes, a composite of death or heart transplantation, heart failure
hospitalization, improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction, incidence of myocardial infarction, quality of life, and any change in the need for concomitant heart failure therapy, including administration of intravenous inotropic agents,
intravenous diuretics, or increase in doses of orally-administered diuretics. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In 1999, the BEST trial was terminated prior to the
completion of follow-up, in response to a recommendation of the BEST trial Data and Safety Monitoring Board that the trial be discontinued. The primary reason for termination was loss of investigator equipoise; in other words, the fact that the BEST
investigators were no longer uncertain regarding the comparative therapeutic merits of giving a placebo versus giving a beta-blocker to a CHF patient.<B> </B>Positive mortality results from two other heart failure trials involving other
beta-blockers had been reported, and a substantial number of BEST trial investigators concluded that it was unethical to continue to give placebo to BEST trial participants. As a result, some investigators began to prescribe these other
beta-blockers to patients in the trial, which threatened to destroy the trial's integrity. At the time the BEST study was terminated, approximately 70% of the trial information was available, with 2,708 of a projected 2,800 patients enrolled and 797
out of 916 deaths reported. A companion trial to the BEST trial, known as the BEAT trial, studying European patients with left ventricular dysfunction and a history of heart attack, was terminated when BEST was terminated, with approximately 10% of
trial information available (including 343 of 2,000 patients enrolled and 43 out of 630 deaths reported). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Following termination, the
preliminary results of both studies were analyzed and published. The preliminary determination, and general perception were that the BEST trial had failed, on the basis of not meeting its primary endpoint of total mortality; the published values

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">clinical efficacy endpoints such as mortality and hospitalization ranged from approximately 35% to approximately 48% in this genotype. In addition, in
arrhythmia endpoints of atrial fibrillation or ventricular fibrillation tracked by safety analyses, the risk reduction by bucindolol in the &#147;very favorable&#148; genotype appeared to be even greater, by 62-70%. Also, beginning in 2005, ARCA
began to more fully analyze the overall BEST results in accordance with FDA-approved, prespecified statistical plans, which had not been done by the sponsors when the BEST trial was terminated. For example, as re-analyzed by ARCA in accordance with
the statistical plan, there appeared to be a 13% risk reduction on the primary endpoint in the BEST trial of mortality for the entire patient population taking bucindolol, with a p-value of 0.053. In addition, the prespecified main secondary
endpoint, reduction in the progression of heart failure, had not been analyzed when the BEST trial ended. As analyzed by ARCA, the results of the BEST trial indicated a 21%, risk reduction on this secondary endpoint for the entire patient population
taking bucindolol, that was highly statistically significant (p = 0.00003). The endpoint of heart failure progression, in similar forms, was the original basis of approval for the two beta-blockers currently approved in the U.S. for CHF. </FONT></P>

found in patients with the very favorable genotype, they also indicate that patients with the favorable genotype may also benefit from the drug. The results of the DNA substudy indicate that patients in the unfavorable genotype group are not
recommended for Gencaro. ARCA estimates that approximately 10-13% of the U.S. CHF patient population falls into the unfavorable genotype group. In addition to these results, there was a 45-47% reduction in myocardial infarction in all patients in
the BEST trial taking bucindolol. This result, which is unique to Gencaro, was supported by the limited results of the companion BEAT trial in Europe, in which Gencaro, with only approximately 10% of the trial information available, demonstrated a
statistically significant improvement in combined myocardial infarction endpoints versus placebo, in patients with left ventricular dysfunction and a history of myocardial infarction. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In 2005, ARCA approached the FDA to discuss the results of the DNA substudy and ARCA&#146;s revised analysis of data from the BEST trial, as well as the
prospect of an NDA for Gencaro for the treatment of CHF. Through a number of meetings over the next several years, ARCA received guidance from the FDA on the potential NDA and the coordination of the NDA with a potential application for approval of
the Gencaro Test. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The regulatory strategy for Gencaro and the Gencaro Test has been guided by this interaction with the FDA. In the NDA
submitted for Gencaro, ARCA argues that Gencaro is approvable based on the full clinical program associated with its development, including data from the total patient cohort population in the BEST trial. The Gencaro clinical development program
encompassed numerous clinical studies, including four randomized and placebo controlled studies in patients with CHF or myocardial infarction, of which two, the BEST and BEAT trials, evaluated rigorous clinical endpoints, including mortality,
hospitalization and myocardial infarction. The remaining clinical studies include the Phase 2 study conducted by Bristol-Myers Squibb for the treatment of hypertension, several safety studies in other patient populations and a Phase 1 program in
healthy subjects. The NDA presents the pharmacogenetic data from the DNA substudy conducted by Drs. Bristow and Liggett as important to the prescribing information in the proposed label for Gencaro, but not as the basis for its approval. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA believes that the clinical trial results for Gencaro, including the results of the BEST trial and DNA substudy, demonstrate the efficacy and
safety of Gencaro for treatment of patients with CHF, both for decreasing the risk of mortality and cardiovascular or heart failure hospitalization, and also for reducing the risk of ischemic events and myocardial infarction. The primary endpoint of
mortality (when analyzed in accordance with the prespecified plan) was reduced in all BEST trial patients on bucindolol by 13%, with a p-value of 0.053, while the FDA typically views significance as a p-value of less than 0.05, this is within the
range found sufficient for approval based on same FDA precedent. This primary endpoint result is enhanced by the response of the BEST trial patient population with respect to eight secondary endpoints, all of which were positive and statistically
significant. As prespecified with FDA, heart failure progression was the most important secondary endpoint, and was positive and statistically significant; a heart failure progression endpoint was FDA&#146;s basis of approval for the two
beta-blockers approved for CHF. ARCA also believes that other statistical analyses and the attributes of the BEST trial itself add to its credibility. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA believes Gencaro&#146;s status as a beta-blocker adds further support to its clinical record, as this class has a well-established record of safety and efficacy. The results of the BEST trial are supported by
qualitatively consistent results from almost every trial in the beta-blocker class for the treatment of CHF. ARCA believes the use of &#147;class effects&#148; to support marketing approval of Gencaro by the FDA is consistent with prior precedent,
especially within the precedent of approvals in cardiovascular and heart-specific therapies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA believes that the pharmacogenetic data
generated from the DNA substudy conducted by Drs. Bristow and Liggett create a separate public health rationale for approval of Gencaro. These DNA substudy results are not the primary basis for approval as set forth in the Gencaro NDA, but ARCA
believes they will represent an important part of the prescribing information in the label being sought for Gencaro. ARCA believes the genetic results will provide physicians with a tool to help predict individual patient response prior to therapy.
This unique attribute of Gencaro represents a new approach in treating CHF; one that ARCA believes has the potential to improve the standard of care. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT

subjects or patients to determine the early safety profile of a product candidate, as well as dose tolerance, absorption, and the pattern of drug distribution and drug metabolism. In Phase 2, trials are conducted with groups of patients afflicted by
a specific target disease to determine preliminary efficacy, optimal dosages and dosage tolerance and to identify possible adverse effects and safety risks. In Phase 3, larger-scale, multi-center trials are conducted with patients afflicted with a

does not satisfy its regulatory approval criteria. A denial may include a request for additional information, including additional clinical data and/or an additional Phase 3 clinical trial. Data from clinical trials are not always conclusive and FDA
may interpret data differently than ARCA interprets data. For instance, ARCA believes that results from a single Phase 3 study, the BEST study, are sufficient to support approval of Gencaro&#146;s NDA. Under the Food and Drug Modernization Act of
1997, the FDA is authorized to approve a drug based on a single adequate and well-controlled study if such study and other confirmatory data are sufficient to establish the drug&#146;s effectiveness. However, it has long been the FDA&#146;s general
position that the standard of proof of a drug&#146;s effectiveness generally requires at least two well-controlled and adequate Phase 3 clinical studies with p-values of less than 0.05 on the primary endpoint. </FONT></P> <P

specified time period, of additional clinical studies after approval, referred to as Phase IV clinical studies, to monitor the effect of a new product and may prevent or limit future marketing of the product based on the results of these
post-marketing programs. Furthermore, prior to granting approval, the FDA generally conducts an inspection of the facilities, including outsourced facilities that will be involved in the manufacture, production, packaging, testing and control of the

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">
<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">FDA review process for generic versions of pioneer (brand name) drug products. The Hatch-Waxman Act also provides for patent term restoration and the award,
in certain circumstances, of non-patent marketing exclusivities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Generic Drug Approval</I>. The Hatch-Waxman Act established an
abbreviated FDA review process for drugs that are shown to be equivalent to approved pioneer drugs. Approval for a generic drug is obtained by filing an abbreviated NDA, or ANDA. Generic drug applications are &#147;abbreviated&#148; because they
generally do not include clinical data to demonstrate safety and effectiveness. Instead, an ANDA applicant must establish that its product is bioequivalent to an approved drug and that it is the same as the approved drug with respect to active
ingredient(s), route of administration, dosage form, strength and recommended conditions of use (labeling). The FDA will approve the generic as suitable for an ANDA if it finds that the generic does not raise questions of safety and effectiveness as
compared to the pioneer drug. A drug is not eligible for ANDA approval if the FDA determines that it is not equivalent to the pioneer drug or if it is intended for a different use. Any applicant who files an ANDA seeking approval of a generic
version of an approved drug listed in FDA&#146;s Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations, or the Orange Book, before expiration of the patent(s) listed in the Orange Book for that approved drug, must certify to the FDA for
each patent that (i)&nbsp;no patent information on the drug has been submitted to the FDA; (ii)&nbsp;that such patent has expired; (iii)&nbsp;the date on which such patent expires; or (iv)&nbsp;that such patent is invalid, unenforceable or will not
be infringed by the manufacture, use or sale of the generic drug. If the ANDA applicant makes a Paragraph IV certification, the NDA owner is entitled to an automatic 30-month stay of FDA&#146;s ability to approve the ANDA. This 30-month stay will
end early upon any decision by a court that the patent is invalid, unenforceable or not infringed by the generic drug. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Patent Term
Restoration.</I> The Hatch-Waxman Act provides for the restoration of a portion of the patent term lost during product development and FDA review of an application. However, the maximum period of restoration cannot exceed five years, or restore the
total remaining term of the patent to greater than 14 years from the date of FDA approval of the product. In the future, ARCA may consider applying for patent term restoration for some of its currently owned or licensed patents, depending on the
expected length of clinical trials and other factors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Non-Patent Marketing Exclusivities.</I> Separate and apart from patent
protection, the Hatch-Waxman Act entitles approved drugs to various periods of non-patent statutory protection, known as marketing exclusivity. The Hatch-Waxman Act provides five years of &#147;new chemical entity&#148; marketing exclusivity to the
first applicant to gain approval of an NDA for a product that contains an active moiety not found in any other approved product. This exclusivity means that another manufacturer cannot submit an ANDA or 505(b)(2) NDA until the marketing exclusivity
period ends. This exclusivity protects the entire new chemical entity franchise, including all products containing the active ingredient for any use and in any strength or dosage form, but will not prevent the submission or approval of stand-alone
NDAs where the applicants have conducted their own clinical studies to demonstrate safety and effectiveness. There is an exception, however, for a competitor that seeks to challenge a patent with a Paragraph IV certification. Four years into the
five-year exclusivity period, a manufacturer who alleges that one or more of the patents listed with the NDA is invalid, unenforceable or not infringed may submit an ANDA or 505(b)(2) NDA for a generic or modified version of the product. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Hatch-Waxman Act also provides three years of &#147;new use&#148; marketing exclusivity for the approval of NDAs, and supplements, where those
applications contain the results of new clinical investigations (other than bioavailability studies) essential to the FDA&#146;s approval of the applications. Such applications may be submitted for new indications, dosage forms, strengths, or new
conditions of use of approved products. So long as the studies are essential to the FDA&#146;s approval or were conducted by or for the applicant, this three-year exclusivity prohibits the final approval of ANDAs or 505(b)(2) NDAs for products with
the specific changes associated with those studies. It does not prohibit the FDA from approving ANDAs or 505(b)(2) NDAs for other products containing the same active ingredient, without those changes. </FONT></P> <P

510(k) clearance. Some low risk devices are exempted from this requirement. Devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risks, or for which there is no predicate, are placed in class III, requiring approval of a PMA. </FONT></P> <P

a 510(k) clearance is required, a company must submit a premarket notification demonstrating that its proposed device is substantially equivalent to a previously cleared 510(k) device or a device that was in commercial distribution before
May&nbsp;28, 1976 for which the FDA has not yet called for the submission of PMAs. By regulation, the FDA is required to clear or deny a 510(k) premarket notification within 90&nbsp;days of submission of the application. As a practical matter,
clearance may take longer. The FDA may require further information, including clinical data, to make a determination regarding substantial equivalence. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If the FDA issues an order declaring the device to be Not Substantially Equivalent, or NSE, and places it into a class III or PMA category, a company can then request a de novo classification of the product. De novo
is generally requested where there is no predicate device and the company believes the device is sufficiently safe so that no PMA should be required. If the FDA classifies the device into class II, company will then receive an approval order to
market the device. This device type can then be used as a predicate device for future 510(k) submissions. However, if the FDA subsequently determines that the device will remain in the class III category, the device cannot be marketed until the
company has obtained an approved PMA. If ARCA is required to follow a de novo process and is successful in having the Gencaro Test classified as Class&nbsp;II, an additional 60 to 90 days or more will be added on to the original 90 days required for
the initial 510(k) review. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Premarket Approval (PMA) Pathway.</I> A PMA must be submitted if the device cannot be cleared through the
510(k) process. The premarket approval application process is generally more costly and time consuming than the 510(k) process. Generally, a PMA must be supported by extensive data including, but not limited to, technical, preclinical, clinical
trials, manufacturing and labeling to demonstrate to the FDA&#146;s satisfaction the safety and effectiveness of the device for its intended use. After a PMA is sufficiently complete, the FDA will accept the application and begin an in-depth review
of the submitted information and will generally conduct a pre-approval inspection of the manufacturing facility or facilities to ensure compliance. By statute, the FDA has 180 days to review the &#147;accepted application&#148;, although, generally,
review of the application can take between one and three years, but it may take significantly longer. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Clinical Trials.</I> Clinical trials are generally required to support a PMA application and are
sometimes required for 510(k) clearance. Based on discussions with FDA, ARCA believes that the clinical trials in the Gencaro NDA are sufficient to support the NDA, and that no further clinical trials will be required for the Gencaro Test
submission. Following the FDA&#146;s guidance from these discussions, the Gencaro Test regulatory filing will cross-reference the Gencaro NDA. However, there is no guarantee that FDA will not require additional clinical data to support the Gencaro
Test submission. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Continuing Regulation.</I> After a device is placed on the market, numerous regulatory requirements apply to the
manufacturer, or holder of a 510(k) clearance or PMA approval. With respect to the Gencaro Test, ARCA will be relying on a third party supplier who will be responsible for compliance with such requirements. The FDA has broad post-market and
regulatory enforcement powers. Accordingly, this third party supplier&#146;s facilities and the manufacturing facilities of certain of its suppliers will be subject to inspections by the FDA to determine those facilities&#146; level of compliance
with various regulations. Failure by these entities to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in enforcement action by the FDA or other regulatory authorities, which may result in a wide variety of sanctions. The occurrence of
enforcement actions against this third party supplier and/or the Gencaro Test could impact ARCA&#146;s ability to market the Gencaro drug product. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The future success of ARCA&#146;s business will partly depend on its ability to maintain market exclusivity in the United States and important
international markets for Gencaro, and for other products or product candidates that it may acquire or develop. ARCA will rely on statutory protection, patent protection, trade secrets, know-how, and in-licensing of technology rights to maintain
protection for its products. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Gencaro has an intellectual property portfolio that ARCA believes forms the basis for potential U.S. and
international market exclusivity. The composition of matter patents that originally covered bucindolol have expired, as a result of bucindolol&#146;s long development history. However, bucindolol has never received regulatory approval in any
jurisdiction, and therefore ARCA believes it will qualify as a New Chemical Entity, or NCE, in all markets. As an NCE, bucindolol will, upon approval, enjoy statutory protection in the United States and most international markets under data
exclusivity statutes. These statutes provide for an exclusivity period beginning from regulatory approval during which any generic competitor is barred from submitting an application that relies on the data of the NCE. In the U.S., the Hatch-Waxman
Act provides for an initial period of four or five years from approval of the NCE, during which a generic application attempting to rely on the data of the NCE cannot be filed with FDA. This period can be extended under certain circumstances, and
ARCA believes it has the potential to extend this period to seven and one-half years from FDA approval, as discussed below. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Many
international markets have data exclusivity statutes that are analogous to Hatch-Waxman and often more protective. The analogous statute in the EMEA will, in general, provide Gencaro with a minimum of eight years of protection before a generic
application may be filed, and ten years of protection before such an application may be approved. Protection under Hatch-Waxman and other data exclusivity statutes is sometimes </FONT>

labeling of the drug is expected to include a recommendation to genotype patients, a use covered by the patent applications. Consequently, if the patents are granted and ARCA&#146;s patent strategy is successful, ARCA believes that the possibility
of generic competition to Gencaro could be significantly reduced until the expiration of these patents, which would be in 2025. ARCA also believes that if these patents are granted, ARCA may be able to extend its initial period of exclusivity under
Hatch-Waxman to seven and one-half years from approval, by filing a litigation stay against a company attempting to enter the market with a generic. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The patent positions of biopharmaceutical companies such as ARCA are uncertain and involve complex legal, scientific and factual questions. In addition, the coverage claimed in a patent application can be
significantly reduced before the patent is issued. Consequently, ARCA cannot be certain that any of its patent applications will result in the issuance of patents or, if any patents are issued, that they will provide significant market protection or
will not be circumvented or challenged and found to be unenforceable or invalid. In some cases, patent applications in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions are maintained in secrecy until patents issue, and since publication of discoveries in
the scientific or patent literature often lags behind actual discoveries, ARCA cannot be certain of the priority of inventions covered by pending patent applications. Moreover, ARCA may have to participate in interference proceedings declared by the
U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to determine priority of invention or in opposition proceedings in a foreign patent office, any of which could result in substantial cost to ARCA, even if the eventual outcome is favorable. There can be no assurance
that a court of competent jurisdiction would hold any patents issued valid. An adverse outcome could subject ARCA to significant liabilities to third parties, require disputed rights to be licensed from third parties or require ARCA to cease using
such technology. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA also relies on trade secret protection for its confidential and proprietary information. ARCA cannot be sure that

drugs for acute cardiovascular disease, cancer and other debilitating medical conditions. Nuvelo&#146;s development pipeline includes NU172, a direct thrombin inhibitor that has completed Phase 1 development for use as a short-acting anticoagulant
during medical or surgical procedures, and Phase 1 clinical candidate NU206, a recombinant, secreted protein for the potential treatment of gastrointestinal, or GI, diseases, including cancer therapy induced mucositis and inflammatory bowel disease,
in addition to bone disease and wound healing. In addition, Nuvelo has research programs in leukemia therapeutic antibodies and Wnt signaling pathway therapeutics. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT

well-defined three-dimensional shape conceptually similar to an antibody. NU172 was designed to directly inhibit thrombin&#146;s ability to stimulate blood clot formation in the setting of medical or surgical procedures where human blood is exposed
to foreign materials. Specifically, NU172 is being studied as a potential short-acting anticoagulant for use during procedures such as coronary artery bypass graft, or CABG, surgery, kidney dialysis and a variety of vascular surgical and coronary
interventions. Approximately 450,000 CABG procedures and 50&nbsp;million dialysis procedures are performed annually in the U.S. In these procedures, heparin is often paired with its antidote protamine as the anticoagulation effect of heparin needs
to be reversed once the procedure has been completed. Data from the Phase 1 trial and preclinical studies suggest that NU172 has the potential to produce rapid and predictable onset and offset of anticoagulation, work in stagnant blood, avoid
thrombocytopenia, and has the potential for non-renal clearance. Due to its short half-life, the effect of NU172 can be rapidly reversed without the need for an antidote. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In August 2008, Nuvelo completed the Phase 1b proof-of-concept trial, demonstrating that NU172 rapidly produced and maintained anticoagulation with a rapid return toward baseline after the infusion ended. The
single-center, Phase 1b trial examined the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of intravenous bolus plus infusion dosing of NU172 in 24 healthy male volunteers. Volunteers were given a 2 mg/kg bolus dose followed by escalating infusion doses
of NU172 for four hours. In all four cohorts, NU172 produced dose-dependent increases in anticoagulation, measured by activated clotting time, or ACT, prothrombin time, or PT, and activated partial thromboplastin time, or aPTT. The highest infusion
dose rate tested, 6.0 mg/kg/hr, resulted in an average ACT per subject ranging from 373 to 414 seconds and an increase of approximately three times baseline. Average PT values per subject ranged from 56 to 92 seconds and had an increase of
approximately five times baseline. Average aPTT values per subject ranged from 130 to 178 seconds and had an increase of approximately five times baseline. All measurements were maintained stably throughout the four-hour infusion. Once the infusion
ended, the ACT and other coagulation parameters showed a rapid return toward baseline, consistent with the short plasma half-life of NU172 observed in the Phase 1a trial. In addition, NU172 was well-tolerated with no serious adverse events.

Wnt signaling pathway is critical for regulating cell growth and differentiation during homeostasis and pathogenesis. Nuvelo has developed a comprehensive approach to target key receptors and secreted proteins that modulate the Wnt pathway. In
addition, Nuvelo has produced mAbs and secreted recombinant proteins with biological activity in cellular assays and animal disease models. Potential indications include: inflammatory bowel disease, peptic ulcers, mucositis, wound healing, and
cancer, as well as bone disorders and osteolytic lesions caused by osteoarthritis and multiple myeloma. Nuvelo&#146;s lead candidate in this program is NU206, a Wnt regulator also known as R-Spondin1, which Nuvelo is developing in collaboration with
Kirin. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

significant decrease in alfimeprase development expenses of $41.2 million and reductions of $3.5 million in facilities expenses as a result of the exit charges accrued in December 2006 for the facility in Sunnyvale, California, and $0.9 million in
employees&#146; stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by an increase in NU172 development expenses of $2.9 million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The
decrease in alfimeprase-related expenses in 2007 was largely due to a $19.0 million charge in 2006 to expense previously capitalized clinical trial supplies related to alfimeprase. The charge was based on a change in estimate related to alternative
future uses triggered by the failure of the first trial in each of the two Phase 3 programs for alfimeprase to meet their primary endpoints in 2006. The decrease in 2007 was also due to a significant reduction in clinical trial related expenditures
in 2007 as Nuvelo&#146;s two alfimeprase Phase 3 trials were suspended during the first half of 2007. Additionally, Nuvelo entered into a Settlement Agreement with its contract manufacturer of alfimeprase in June 2007, pursuant to which certain
obligations to this contract manufacturer we had previously accrued in 2006 were reversed. Accordingly, Nuvelo recorded a credit to R&amp;D expenses of approximately $2.9 million, net of cost sharing with Nuvelo&#146;s collaboration partner.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The $31.6 million increase in R&amp;D expense in 2006 as compared to 2005 was primarily due to increases in expenses related to
alfimeprase, NU172 and NU206 totaling $20.4 million, an increase of $6.5 million in expenses related to rNAPc2, of which the development was suspended in 2007, and an increase in employee stock-based compensation expense of $4.6 million as a result
of the implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;123 (revised 2004),<I> &#147;Share-Based Payment&#148;</I> (SFAS&nbsp;123(R)). The increase in alfimeprase-related expenses in 2006 was primarily due to the $19.0 charge
in December 2006 as discussed above. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The timing, cost of completing the clinical development of any product candidate, and any potential
future product revenues will depend on a number of factors, including the disease or medical condition to be treated, clinical trial design and endpoints, availability of patients to participate in trials and the relative efficacy of the product
versus treatments already approved. Due to these uncertainties, Nuvelo is unable to estimate the length of time or the costs that will be required to complete the development of these product candidates. </FONT></P> <P

estimated sublease income. A charge of $21.1 million was recorded concurrently to the statement of operations, after deducting the remaining deferred rent of $5.5 million as of December&nbsp;31, 2006. Additionally, on December&nbsp;31, 2006, Nuvelo
recorded an impairment charge under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;144,<I> &#147;Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets</I>&#148; (SFAS 144), of $3.4 million, being the carrying value of leasehold

was primarily due to declining cash and investment balances and lower interest rates. The increase in net interest income in 2006 was primarily due to higher cash and investment balances and higher interest rates. </FONT></P> <P

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On October&nbsp;1, 2006, Nuvelo adopted the provisions of FASB Staff Position No. EITF 00-19-2, <I>&#147;Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements&#148;</I> (EITF 00-19-2), which requires that contingent
obligations to make future payments under a registration payment arrangement be recognized and measured separately in accordance with SFAS No.&nbsp;5,<I> &#147;Accounting for Contingencies.&#148;</I> Under previous guidance, the fair value of the
warrant issued to Kingsbridge in August 2005 under Nuvelo&#146;s Committed Equity Financing Facility, or CEFF, was recorded as a current liability in Nuvelo&#146;s balance sheet, due to a potential cash payment feature in the warrant. The current
liability was marked-to-market at each quarter end, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, with the change being recorded to general and administrative expenses. Under the new guidance in EITF 00-19-2, as Nuvelo believed the likelihood of
such a cash payment to be not probable, Nuvelo did not need to recognize a liability for such obligations. Accordingly, a cumulative-effect adjustment of $2.2 million was made as of October&nbsp;1, 2006, representing the difference between the
initial fair value of this warrant and its fair value as of this date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

as compared to a net loss of $130.6 million in 2006. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to the recognition of the remaining unamortized balance of the Bayer up-front license payment in the second quarter of 2007 and a reduction in R&amp;D
and G&amp;A expenses noted above. Nuvelo incurred a net loss $130.6 million in 2006, as compared to $71.6 million in 2005. The increase in net loss resulted primarily from the increases in expenses noted above, including an $11.2 million increase in
total employee stock-based compensation expense in 2006 as a result of the implementation of SFAS 123(R), partially offset by higher revenues and interest income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

shares, within a three-year period, subject to certain conditions and limitations. Under the CEFF, Nuvelo sold 1,839,400 shares for gross proceeds of $14.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2005, and a further 568,247 shares for gross proceeds of
$10.0 million in October 2006. There has been no further sale of shares to Kingsbridge since October 2006. The CEFF expired on October&nbsp;13, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

review, analysis of expenses against budgeted amounts, and pre-approval of any changes in scope of the services to be performed. Nuvelo may also request certain significant vendors to provide an estimate of costs incurred but not invoiced on a
periodic basis. For accrual of expenses related to CROs and clinical study sites, Nuvelo&#146;s estimate is based on patient enrollment or progress made against specified milestones or targets in each period. All estimates may differ from the actual
amounts subsequently invoiced. No adjustments for material changes in estimates have been recognized in any period presented. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In

suspended enrollment in the second trial in each of these programs. Due to the increased uncertainty over the future of this drug program, Nuvelo&#146;s management reassessed the probability of alternative future use of capitalized alfimeprase
clinical trial supplies and determined that previously capitalized amounts no longer met the criteria for capitalization under SFAS 2, which represents a change in estimate for accounting purposes. Accordingly, in December 2006, Nuvelo recognized
$21.2&nbsp;million in expense, including $19.0 million related to alfimeprase, and $2.2 million related to other drug programs, as a result of a similar review. During 2007 and the first six months of 2008, Nuvelo determined that there were no
alternative future uses of clinical trial supplies for all current drug programs and that all expenditures related to clinical trial supplies were charged to expense as incurred. In the future, Nuvelo will continue to assess whether alternative

SIZE="2">Effective January&nbsp;1, 2006, Nuvelo adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;123 (revised 2004), <I>&#147;Share-Based Payment&#148;</I> (SFAS 123(R)). SFAS 123(R) establishes accounting for
stock-based awards exchanged for employee and non-employee services.&nbsp;Under SFAS 123(R), employee stock-based compensation cost is generally measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over
the employee&#146;s requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures.&nbsp;Nuvelo previously applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.&nbsp;25,<I> &#147;Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees&#148;</I> (APB 25), and related
Interpretations to account for employee stock-based compensation, and provided the required pro forma disclosures of SFAS No.&nbsp;123,<I> &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation&#148;</I> (SFAS&nbsp;123). Nuvelo adopted the modified
prospective application method as provided by SFAS 123(R). Under the modified prospective method, the fair values of new and previously granted but unvested stock options are recognized as compensation expense in the statement of operations over the
related vesting periods from the date of adopting SFAS 123(R), and prior period results are not restated. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Nuvelo uses the Black-Scholes
option&#150;pricing model as management believes that it is the most appropriate fair-value method for Nuvelo&#146;s stock-based awards. The Black-Scholes option&#150;pricing model requires assumptions to be made for the expected term of the awards,
expected volatility of Nuvelo&#146;s stock price, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend yields. These assumptions are highly subjective and involve inherent uncertainties and are based on management&#146;s best estimates and judgment. If
alternative assumptions are used instead of those presented in the notes to the financial statements, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different from amounts recorded in the financial statements under SFAS 123(R) and disclosed on
a pro forma basis under SFAS 123. In addition, under SFAS 123(R) Nuvelo is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate of awards and only recognize expense for those awards expected to vest. If the actual forfeiture rate is materially
different from the estimate, the stock-based compensation expense could be materially different from amounts recorded in the financial statements. For options granted prior to January&nbsp;1, 2006, Nuvelo continues to use the graded-vested
(multiple-option) method for expense attribution. Prior to January&nbsp;1, 2006, option forfeitures were recognized on a pro forma basis as they occurred. For options granted since January&nbsp;1, 2006, Nuvelo has been using the straight-line
(single-option) method for expense attribution, estimates forfeitures based on historical data and only recognizes expense for those shares expected to vest. Adjustments to the forfeiture rate are made if actual forfeitures differ from previous
estimates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To determine the expected term of the options granted, Nuvelo&#146;s uses historical data, including post-vesting termination
behavior and the contractual term to estimate future exercises and cancellations. For options granted prior to January&nbsp;1, 2006, the expected volatility was based solely on the historical volatility of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock. For options
granted since January&nbsp;1, 2006, Nuvelo has been using a combination of historic and implied volatility of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock in deriving expected volatility. The risk-free interest rate assumptions are based on the yield of U.S. Treasury
instruments with similar durations as the expected term of the related awards. The expected dividend yield assumption is based on Nuvelo&#146;s historic and expected dividend payouts. </FONT></P> <P

with the determination that Nuvelo has only one reporting segment, it has determined that there is only one reporting unit and, therefore, goodwill is tested at the entity level. Nuvelo has elected October&nbsp;31</FONT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">SFAS 142 requires a two-step test for goodwill impairment. In the first step, Nuvelo compares the fair value of Nuvelo to its carrying value. Nuvelo
generally bases its fair value on its market capitalization, which is based on quoted market prices of its common stock, taking into account other factors that may affect the fair value of the Nuvelo as a whole. If the fair value of the Nuvelo
exceeds the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is not impaired and Nuvelo is not required to proceed to the second step of the impairment test. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the first quarter of 2008, Nuvelo performed a goodwill impairment test due to the significant decline of its stock price subsequent to the announcement on March&nbsp;17, 2008 to discontinue further clinical
development of alfimeprase. Significant judgment is required to evaluate the fair value of a company, as quoted market prices of a company&#146;s common stock and consequently market capitalization may experience significant fluctuations in reaction
to disclosures of new information about the company. Based on the upward trend in the price of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock following the initial decrease after the announcement and through the filing of the Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2008,
Nuvelo concluded that the market capitalization following the initial market reaction to the announcement did not provide a good indication of Nuvelo&#146;s fair value. Accordingly, Nuvelo concluded that the carrying value of its net assets at that
time did not exceed its fair value and consequently, goodwill was not impaired at March&nbsp;31, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the second quarter of 2008,
Nuvelo performed an additional goodwill impairment test as the upward trend in the market price of Nuvelo&#146;s common stock did not continue and Nuvelo&#146;s market capitalization remained lower than its carrying value. Since the carrying value
exceeded the fair value, at June&nbsp;30, 2008, Nuvelo performed the second step in order to determine the implied fair value of the goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of goodwill. The activities in the second step included valuing the
tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of Nuvelo based on their fair value and determining the implied goodwill based upon the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the net fair values of identified tangible and
intangible assets and liabilities. Based on the results of the second step of calculating the implied goodwill, Nuvelo recorded an impairment charge of the full balance of goodwill totaling $4.7 million. </FONT></P> <P

cash flows attributable to that asset. The amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

basis considering current market data, including vacancy rates and lease activities for similar facilities within the area. In periods subsequent to initial measurement, changes to a liability resulting from changes in sublease assumptions are
measured using the same credit-adjusted risk-free rate that was applied in the initial period. In addition, accretion of the liability due to the passage of time is recorded as an expense. Changes to the sublease assumptions may potentially have a
significant effect on Nuvelo&#146;s financial condition and results of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In December 2006, Nuvelo exited the facility located in
Sunnyvale, California, and recorded a liability of $26.6 million related to the remaining lease obligations, less estimated sublease income, for the remainder of the lease term. As of March&nbsp;31, 2008, Nuvelo determined that the likelihood of
subleasing this facility during the remainder of the lease term has become remote and, therefore, recorded an additional $1.5 million charge to reflect such change in the sublease assumption. Nuvelo will continue to pursue sublease opportunities and
make necessary adjustments to the liability if and when Nuvelo enters into a sublease agreement in the future. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Income Taxes </I></B>

<I>&#147;Accounting for Income Taxes&#148;</I> (SFAS 109). Under SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. </FONT></P> <P

realization of deferred income tax assets requires that estimates and assumptions be made as to the taxable income of future periods. Nuvelo&#146;s deferred tax assets have been reduced to zero, as Nuvelo&#146;s management believes that it is more
likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Projection of future period earnings is inherently difficult as it involves consideration of numerous factors such as Nuvelo&#146;s overall strategies and estimates of new product
development and acceptance, product lifecycles, selling prices and volumes, responses by competitors, manufacturing costs and assumptions as to operating expenses and other industry specific and macro and micro economic factors. In addition,
consideration is also given to ongoing and constantly evolving global tax laws and Nuvelo&#146;s own tax minimization strategies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

state law provisions as a result of certain transactions that Nuvelo entered into prior to 2006. If the proposed merger with ARCA is consummated, a &#147;change in ownership&#148; of Nuvelo will occur and Nuvelo&#146;s ability to utilize these
carryforwards will be substantially reduced. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On January&nbsp;1, 2007, Nuvelo adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No.&nbsp;48,

when it is more likely than not (i.e. a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. A recognized tax position is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than

Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, &#147;<I>Effective Date of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;157</I>&#148; (FSP 157-2), which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for all nonfinancial assets and
nonfinancial liabilities, except items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually), until fiscal years beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2008. The implementation of SFAS 157 for financial assets and
financial liabilities did not have a material impact on Nuvelo&#146;s consolidated financial position and results of operations. Nuvelo is currently assessing the impact of adopting SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities on
its financial position and results of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;159, &#147;<I>The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities</I>&#148; (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 allows entities to voluntarily choose, at specified election dates, to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required
to be measured at fair value. The effective date for Nuvelo was January&nbsp;1, 2008. To date, Nuvelo has not elected this fair value option for any assets or liabilities. </FONT></P> <P

portion of a payment made by a research and development entity for future research and development activities. Under EITF 07-3, an entity would defer and capitalize non-refundable advance payments made for research and development activities until
the related goods are delivered or the related services are performed. The effective date for Nuvelo was January&nbsp;1, 2008. The adoption of EITF 07-3 did not have a material effect on Nuvelo&#146;s consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P>

requires the acquirer of a business to recognize and measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value. SFAS 141R also requires transactions costs related to the
business combination to be expensed as incurred. SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December&nbsp;15, 2008.
The effective date for Nuvelo will be January&nbsp;1, 2009. Nuvelo has not yet determined the impact of SFAS 141R related to future acquisitions, if any, on Nuvelo&#146;s consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P> <P

change in market value of Nuvelo&#146;s investment portfolio by approximately $0.1 million and annual interest income by approximately $0.7 million. To minimize its exposure to credit risk, Nuvelo invests in securities with strong credit ratings and
has established guidelines relative to diversification and maturity with the objective of maintaining safety of principal and liquidity. Nuvelo does not invest in derivative financial instruments, mortgage-backed securities or auction rate
securities, and Nuvelo has not recorded any losses on its securities due to credit or liquidity issues. Nuvelo continues to monitor its credit exposure and may modify its investment guidelines as necessitated by changing market conditions.

heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases. ARCA&#146;s lead product candidate is Gencaro</FONT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="1"><SUP>TM </SUP></FONT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">(bucindolol hydrochloride), a twice-a-day oral
formulation that has been developed for the treatment of chronic heart failure. ARCA believes it has identified common genetic variations that help predict patient response to Gencaro. The FDA accepted ARCA&#146;s NDA for Gencaro in September 2008.
ARCA believes that Gencaro, if approved, will be the first genetically-targeted cardiovascular drug. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA holds worldwide rights to
Gencaro and, if it is approved, plans to commercialize the drug in the U.S., through its own specialized sales force. ARCA may seek commercial partners outside the United States. ARCA has collaborated with Laboratory Corporation of America, or
LabCorp, to develop and launch a companion genetic test for Gencaro, in conjunction with any commercialization of Gencaro. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA was
incorporated in 2001, reorganized as a Delaware corporation in 2004 and began substantial operations in 2005. ARCA is in the development stage and has incurred net losses since inception. From inception through June&nbsp;30, 2008, ARCA&#146;s
activities have been focused primarily on conducting research and development, hiring personnel and raising capital to support these activities. ARCA expects to incur net losses in the future as research and development activities continue and it
prepares to commercialize Gencaro. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA&#146;s costs associated with Gencaro have represented substantially all of ARCA&#146;s research
and development expenses to date. For the fiscal years ended December&nbsp;31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, ARCA&#146;s net losses were $14.0 million, $5.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively. For the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2008, ARCA&#146;s net
losses were $7.8 million. As of June&nbsp;30, 2008, ARCA had $6.9 million in cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, working capital of $4.8 million and an accumulated deficit since inception of $29.2 million. ARCA expects significant
costs for the foreseeable future while it awaits the FDA&#146;s decision on the NDA for Gencaro and builds its sales and marketing organization in anticipation of the potential commercial launch of Gencaro. </FONT></P> <P

NDA for Gencaro is approved. To date, substantially all of ARCA&#146;s operations have been funded through the private placement of equity securities and convertible debt. Since inception, ARCA has raised net cash proceeds of $33.0 million from the
sales of preferred stock. In August 2008, ARCA drew $4.0 million on its bank line of credit. In October 2008, ARCA sold convertible promissory notes and warrants to purchase common stock for total consideration of $8.75 million. </FONT></P> <P

have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires ARCA to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported expenses during the reporting periods. ARCA bases its estimates on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under
circumstances, and evaluates its estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

development stage company, ARCA has not generated positive cash flows from operations, and such cash flows may not materialize for a significant period into the future, if ever. Additionally, ARCA may make changes to its business plan that would
result in changes to expected cash flows from long lived assets. As a result, it is reasonably possible that future evaluations of long lived assets may result in an impairment. </FONT></P> <P

the process of preparing its financial statements, ARCA is required to estimate accrued expenses. This process involves identifying services that third parties have performed on ARCA&#146;s behalf and estimating the level of service performed and
the associated cost incurred for these services as of the balance sheet date. Examples of estimated accrued expenses include contract service fees, such as fees payable to contract manufacturers in connection with the production of materials related
to drug product, and professional service fees, such as attorneys and consultants. ARCA develops estimates of liabilities using its judgment based upon the facts and circumstances known and accounts for these estimates in accordance with accounting

including the costs of contract research organizations, upfront license fees and milestone payments for acquired product rights that have not been developed into saleable products or approved by regulatory agencies, and which have no future
alternative use. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. ARCA has issued shares of common stock in exchange for certain licenses and sublicenses. Total research and development expense recorded for the fair value of these issuances
was $20,028, $149,841, $44,132 and $214,001 in 2007, 2006, 2005 and the period from inception through December&nbsp;31, 2007, respectively. No shares were issued for licenses and sublicenses in 2008. </FONT></P> <P

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To date, ARCA&#146;s major research and development project has been the regulatory filing of the Gencaro
NDA with the FDA. On July&nbsp;31, 2008 ARCA submitted the Gencaro NDA to the FDA and the submission was accepted and filed by the FDA in September 2008. ARCA anticipates a determination with respect to the NDA from the FDA in the second quarter of
2009. ARCA has spent approximately $19.7 million on research and development from ARCA&#146;s inception through June&nbsp;30, 2008, a substantial majority of which was related to the Gencaro NDA. Included in these total expenditures are licensing
costs for the active pharmaceutical ingredient, or API, of Gencaro, bucindolol, of $1.0 million. In August 2008, ARCA made a milestone payment of $500,000 to the licensor of such rights based on the July&nbsp;31, 2008 submission of its NDA. If ARCA
obtains approval from the FDA it will owe an additional milestone royalty of $8.0 million to this licensor and must make the payment within 180 days after receiving approval. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">ARCA could incur additional costs in defense of its NDA. These costs could be significant but are not currently estimable or certain. The FDA could also
require ARCA to do additional research and development work, the scope and cost of which are not currently foreseeable or certain. If ARCA is required to perform additional research and development work, the costs and time related to which could be
significant, then the commercialization of Gencaro and ARCA&#146;s ability to generate revenues will also be delayed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Share-Based
Compensation </I></B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Prior to January&nbsp;1, 2006, ARCA accounted for employee stock options using the intrinsic-value method in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.&nbsp;25, <I>Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees</I>, and related interpretations, or APB No.&nbsp;25. In accordance with APB No.&nbsp;25, stock-based compensation was calculated using the
intrinsic-value method and represented the difference between the estimated fair value of ARCA common stock and the per share exercise price of the stock option at the grant date. Based on this method, ARCA did not incur any compensation expense
under APB No.&nbsp;25. Effective January&nbsp;1, 2006, ARCA adopted SFAS 123(R), <I>Share-Based Payment</I>, using the prospective transition method, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment
awards granted or modified to employees and directors after January&nbsp;1, 2006, based on the estimated fair value of the award at the grant date. The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model
requires the input of subjective assumptions, including expected stock price volatility, expected life and estimated forfeitures of each award. Management believes its assumptions regarding these inputs are reasonable. The estimated grant-date fair
value of stock-based awards is amortized over the vesting period of the award, and ARCA has elected to use the straight-line method of amortization. Due to the limited amount of historical data available to ARCA, particularly with respect to
stock-price volatility, employee exercise patterns and forfeitures, future estimates of grant-date fair value could utilized different assumptions, and actual forfeiture rates could differ from those estimated through June&nbsp;30, 2008. </FONT></P>

future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense or benefit for the period. The
measurement of deferred tax assets may be reduced by a valuation allowance based on judgmental assessment of available evidence if deemed more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. ARCA has recorded a
valuation allowance against all of its net deferred tax assets, as management is unable to conclude that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will be realized through future taxable income, based primarily on ARCA&#146;s

FASB 157-2, <I>Effective Date of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;157</I>, which provides a one-year deferral of the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed in the
financial statements at fair value at least annually. SFAS No.&nbsp;157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS
No.&nbsp;157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, the first
two of which are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. The adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;157 had no impact on ARCA&#146;s financial statements. </FONT></P> <P

Dr. Bullock, Dr. Grais and Dr. Formela were the members of ARCA&#146;s compensation committee. The compensation committee seeks to ensure that the total compensation paid to ARCA&#146;s named executive officers is fair, reasonable and competitive.
Generally, the types of compensation and benefits provided to the named executive officers are similar to those provided to ARCA&#146;s other officers. The board of directors has also established an award committee comprised of members of the
compensation committee and delegated to this committee the authority to approve and authorize grants under ARCA&#146;s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, or the ARCA Plan. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT

consist of salary, annual performance-based cash bonuses based on the achievement of company goals established by the compensation committee, discretionary cash bonuses awarded from time to time based on the compensation committee&#146;s subjective
assessment of each individual executive&#146;s job performance during the past year, and grants of restricted stock and/or stock options to provide executives with longer-term incentives. </FONT></P> <P

in relation to the individual executive&#146;s job responsibilities and reward the achievement of both annual and long-term strategic goals of ARCA. The compensation committee uses annual cash bonuses to reward an officer&#146;s achievement of
specific goals and employee stock options as a retention tool and as a means to align the executive&#146;s long-term interests with those of ARCA&#146;s stockholders, with the ultimate objective of improving stockholder value. ARCA&#146;s
compensation committee has also used grants of restricted stock as a means to provide incentives to executive officers to achieve longer-term key strategic objectives of the company. ARCA&#146;s compensation committee evaluates both performance and
compensation to maintain ARCA&#146;s ability to attract and retain excellent employees in key positions and to assure that compensation provided to key employees remains competitive relative to the compensation paid to similarly situated executives
of comparable companies. To that end, ARCA&#146;s compensation committee believes executive </FONT>

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">committee concluded that the competition for executive talent remained strong as a result of the solid economic performance of the industry, the continued
high level of investment by venture capital firms in the new and existing life science companies and the specialized skills and experiences required to manage life science companies. The compensation committee&#146;s assessment of general market
conditions in the life science industry was based on the experience of the committee members who were and are actively involved in venture capital investing, and Radford and other survey data in making its base salary assessments. In light of its
considerations, the compensation committee recommended and the board of directors approved increases to base salary of 3.8% for Mr.&nbsp;Brewer to $311,400, 3.8% for Dr.&nbsp;Bristow to $259,500, and 3.8% for Mr.&nbsp;Ozeroff to $228,360. The

2007, Nuvelo completed the transition of all compensation decisions to a calendar year basis. Previously, Nuvelo made adjustments to individuals&#146; base salaries and annual performance option grants effective August&nbsp;1 of each year, following
annual performance reviews for each employee, and made bonus decisions following the completion of each calendar year and the assessment of corporate and individual goal achievement. Nuvelo determined that a calendar year decision on each of these
three principal elements of compensation would be preferable. A calendar year decision would more closely tie individual performance assessment to individual and corporate goal achievement, and would facilitate the consideration of an
employee&#146;s total cash and equity compensation in a more integrated fashion. As a consequence, in 2007 Nuvelo made annual performance option grants effective February&nbsp;1, rather than August&nbsp;1. In addition, merit compensation increases,
which were made effective August&nbsp;1, 2007, are intended to be effective without change until February&nbsp;1, 2009, at which point Nuvelo will have completed the transition to align all compensation decisions with a calendar year schedule.

alfimeprase for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, were included among the revised goals as were IND submissions for NU172 and NU206, and other goals that Nuvelo&#146;s board of directors determined were important to Nuvelo&#146;s progress and
were reasonably difficult to achieve. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Nuvelo compensation committee determines the relative weight of each goal based on its

research and development pipeline would be worth 70% of the total for bonus achievement in 2007, with financial goals afforded 10% of the total and organizational goals the remaining 20%. </FONT></P> <P

corporate goals at the target level, has exceeded expectations, or has failed to meet expectations. The compensation committee assessed Nuvelo&#146;s performance in 2007 as having achieved 84% of the target goal performance. The Nuvelo compensation
committee&#146;s determination was based on Nuvelo&#146;s failure to meet goals based on enrollment in Nuvelo&#146;s clinical trial of alfimeprase in acute ischemic stroke, as well as delays in the initiation of a Phase 1 trial of NU206. The Nuvelo
compensation committee found that Nuvelo had met other research and development goals, as well as its organizational and financial goals. The Nuvelo compensation committee&#146;s assessment of the percentage deductions for failure to achieve a
particular goal involves significant discretion, within the range of the percentages that the Nuvelo compensation committee has previously attributed as the value of the achievement of that goal. The Nuvelo compensation committee also retains the
discretion to grant bonuses to individual executives that are above or below the established target based on the above criteria and its subjective assessment of each executive&#146;s performance and the achievement of the corporate goals for which
that executive was primarily responsible. For that reason, following the determination that the overall bonus pool would be reduced to 84%, Mr.&nbsp;Bendekgey&#146;s bonus was calculated as 110% of 84%, because Nuvelo had met or outperformed all of
the finance, compliance and legal goals for which he was responsible. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Stock Options </I></B></FONT></P> <P

employees at the level of vice president and above. The board of directors determined that companies considered peers at that time commonly offered benefits comparable to those offered under the Severance Plan, which are described in the tables that
follow. Given the risks associated with the biopharmaceutical industry and the increasing frequency of acquisitions in the industry, the Nuvelo compensation committee continues to believe that this plan is necessary to attract and retain qualified

It takes many years of clinical development to reduce this risk. Like most other biotechnology companies that have not yet commercialized any products, Nuvelo has been heavily dependent on capital markets for cash. Given the limitations on
Nuvelo&#146;s cash, and the long-term risks associated with Nuvelo&#146;s achievement of its vision, Nuvelo has in recent years weighted its total compensation, for executives as well as the rest of its work force, toward equity, in order to
minimize the use of cash while achieving total compensation packages that have allowed it to attract and retain talented employees, including those in its executive ranks. Nuvelo believes that this strategy has been successful, as demonstrated by
the backgrounds of its executives and other employees. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Internal Revenue Code Section&nbsp;162(m) </I></B></FONT></P> <P

November&nbsp;2, 2006 that was amended and restated as of July&nbsp;7, 2008. Under his employment agreement, Mr.&nbsp;Brewer is entitled to receive an annual base salary of $300,000, subject to annual increases if approved by the ARCA board of
directors (or ARCA&#146;s compensation committee) and is eligible to receive an annual bonus as determined by the board of directors (or ARCA&#146;s compensation committee) in its sole discretion. Mr.&nbsp;Brewer is permitted to serve on a maximum
of four outside corporate board of directors, so long as it does not interfere with his duties as president and chief executive officer of ARCA. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"
SIZE="2">If ARCA terminates Mr.&nbsp;Brewer&#146;s employment without &#147;cause,&#148; or if Mr.&nbsp;Brewer terminates his employment with &#147;good reason&#148; (as these terms are defined in his employment agreement), ARCA has agreed to pay
Mr.&nbsp;Brewer a severance payment equivalent to (i)&nbsp;12 months of his base salary and (ii)&nbsp;a pro rata portion of any bonus compensation under any employee bonus plan that has been approved by the board of directors payable to him for the
fiscal year in which his employment terminated to be paid at the same time that the incentive bonus would have been paid had the termination not occurred. ARCA may elect to pay Mr.&nbsp;Brewer additional severance equal to up to 12 months&#146; of
his base salary, which additional payments would extend Mr.&nbsp;Brewer&#146;s obligations under his Employee Intellectual Property, Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement for such additional period. Severance payments may be made by ARCA on a
monthly basis or, at ARCA&#146;s election, in a lump sum. The severance payment is conditioned on the execution by Mr.&nbsp;Brewer of a legal release in a form acceptable to ARCA. A termination for &#147;cause&#148; includes willful misconduct,
gross negligence, theft, fraud or other illegal or dishonest conduct, any of which are considered to be materially harmful to ARCA; refusal, unwillingness, failure or inability to perform material job duties or habitual absenteeism; or violation of
fiduciary duty, violation of any duty of loyalty or material breach of any material term of the employment agreement or the Employee Intellectual Property, Confidentiality and Non-Compete Agreement, or any other agreement, with ARCA. &#147;Good
reason&#148; includes a decrease in current base salary, with certain exceptions; change in title or reporting relationship; failure of the ARCA stockholders to elect Mr.&nbsp;Brewer to the board of directors; a move of the ARCA headquarters to a
location greater than 60&nbsp;miles from Denver, Colorado; resignation within 90&nbsp;days of a corporate transaction; or ARCA&#146;s unilateral decision to significantly and detrimentally reduce Mr.&nbsp;Brewer&#146;s job responsibilities.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with the execution of his employment agreement, in November 2006, Mr.&nbsp;Brewer was granted the option to purchase 992,000
shares of ARCA&#146;s common stock pursuant to a Stock Option Agreement between ARCA and Mr.&nbsp;Brewer and the other terms and conditions of the ARCA 2004 Stock Incentive Plan. The options were exercisable immediately, subject to ARCA&#146;s right
to repurchase any shares that have been exercised at the exercise price upon a voluntarily resignation by Mr.&nbsp;Brewer, his termination for cause or upon his death or disability. ARCA&#146;s right of repurchase lapses at the rate of 6.25% at the
end of each quarter following the first anniversary of the grant date. In addition, ARCA&#146;s right of repurchase lapses in full upon the earlier of a corporate transaction (as defined in his employment agreement) or upon a termination other than
for cause or by Mr.&nbsp;Brewer for good reason. The closing of the merger will not result in the acceleration in the rate at which ARCA&#146;s right of repurchase lapses with respect to these options. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition to the options, Mr.&nbsp;Brewer was issued 500,000 shares of restricted stock pursuant to a Restricted Stock Agreement dated November&nbsp;2,
2006 that was amended on February&nbsp;19, 2007. Mr.&nbsp;Brewer paid $37,750 for 250,000 of the shares and received the remaining shares in consideration for prior services. The amount Mr.&nbsp;Brewer paid for the shares was equal to the fair
market value of the stock on the date of issuance. Under his Restricted Stock Agreement, the shares are unvested and subject to ARCA&#146;s repurchase right at the purchase price until the earlier to occur of the listing of ARCA&#146;s common stock
on a national securities exchange or a change in control. In October 2008, Mr.&nbsp;Brewer&#146;s Restricted Stock Agreement was amended to provide that the shares of restricted stock will vest in full upon the closing of the merger. As of
October&nbsp;15, 2008, no shares of restricted stock had vested. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

of termination or change in control was December&nbsp;31, 2007 and (ii)&nbsp;the value of each share subject to a stock option or a restricted stock grant that would be accelerated, or for which ARCA&#146;s right of repurchase lapses, in the
circumstances set forth in the table below equals $0.31, which represents the fair value of ARCA&#146;s common stock as of December&nbsp;31, 2007 as determined by ARCA&#146;s board of directors. </FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">The following table shows the beneficial ownership, as of October&nbsp;15, 2008, of the common stock of ARCA held by each director and named executive officer of ARCA, by each stockholder known to ARCA to beneficially own greater than 5% of
ARCA&#146;s outstanding voting stock and by all of ARCA&#146;s current directors and executive officers as a group. The following table assumes conversion of all shares of outstanding preferred stock into common stock at the following assumed rates:
each share of Series A Preferred Stock converts into one share of common stock; each share of Series B-1 Preferred Stock converts into 1.219875 shares of common stock; and each share of Series B-2 Preferred Stock converts into 1.6265 shares of
common stock. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition, the table below reflects shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the outstanding principal and
accrued interest under ARCA&#146;s convertible promissory notes dated October&nbsp;10, 2008, or the Notes, and warrants, or the Warrants, to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to (a)&nbsp;20% of the total consideration paid for each
Note and Warrant divided by (b)&nbsp;the conversion rate under the Notes. The share information in the table below assumes a conversion rate for the Notes of $1.6265 and a conversion date on January&nbsp;9, 2009, the date by which the parties
reasonably anticipate that the merger will close and the Notes will automatically convert. It further assumes an exercise price of $1.6265 under the Warrants resulting in the issuance of Warrants to purchase 1,627 shares of common stock for every
$1,000 in principal amount under the Notes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The number of shares beneficially owned by each entity, person, director or executive officer
is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares over which the individual has the sole
or shared voting power or investment power, and includes any shares that the individual has the right to acquire within 60 days of October&nbsp;15, 2008 through the exercise of any stock option or other right. The percentage of shares
&#147;beneficially owned&#148; is computed on the basis of 23,936,074 shares of ARCA&#146;s common stock, on an as converted basis, outstanding as of October&nbsp;15, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The final purchase price allocation will change significantly from preliminary estimates. The actual purchase accounting upon consummation of the merger will be based on the fair value of the consideration paid and
fair values of Nuvelo&#146;s assets and liabilities as determined at the time of consummation. Nuvelo&#146;s market capitalization has experienced significant fluctuations during 2008 as a result of both market and company-specific factors, and such
fluctuations may continue. Further, Nuvelo continues to use its cash and other liquid assets to finance its ongoing operations. As a result, at the date the merger is consummated, Nuvelo&#146;s cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments are
expected to be significantly less than at June 30, 2008, and its market capitalization cannot be predicted. ARCA and Nuvelo will re-evaluate the determination of the purchase price at the time of merger consummation, taking into consideration both
Nuvelo&#146;s market capitalization at the time of consummation, and may consider alternative approaches, such as basing the purchase price on the fair value of Nuvelo&#146;s net assets, or based on the fair value of ARCA&#146;s common and
redeemable convertible preferred stock, rather than Nuvelo&#146;s common stock. ARCA and Nuvelo do not anticipate that the final purchase accounting performed when the merger is consummated will result in a significant pro forma negative goodwill
amount because the proposed merger is not considered a bargain purchase transaction. Please see the notes to these unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements for further discussion. </FONT></P> <P

Nuvelo and ARCA entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, as amended by Amendment No.&nbsp;1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated October 28, 2008, under which Dawn Acquisition,&nbsp;Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuvelo formed by Nuvelo in connection with the merger, will merge with and into ARCA. ARCA will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuvelo and the surviving corporation of the merger. Upon completion of the merger, Nuvelo
will change its name to ARCA biopharma, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, Nuvelo will issue to the stockholders of ARCA shares of Nuvelo common stock and will assume all of the stock options and stock warrants of ARCA outstanding
as of the merger closing date, such that ARCA stockholders, including holders of common stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock, convertible note holders, option holders and warrant holders will own approximately 67% of the combined company
on a pro&nbsp;forma fully diluted basis and Nuvelo stockholders and option holders will own approximately 33% of the combined company on a pro&nbsp;forma fully diluted basis. The merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under the
provisions of Section&nbsp;368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by Nuvelo and ARCA&nbsp;stockholders. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because ARCA security holders will own approximately 67% of the voting stock of the combined company after the transaction and the management of ARCA
will be the management of the combined company, ARCA is deemed to be the acquiring company for accounting purposes and the transaction will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.&nbsp;Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of Nuvelo will be recorded as of the merger closing date at their estimated fair&nbsp;values. </FONT></P> <P

because the proposed merger has not yet been completed. The final allocation of the purchase price will be based on Nuvelo&#146;s assets and liabilities on the closing date. In addition, if the merger is consummated after December 31, 2008, it will
be accounted for under SFAS No.&nbsp;141(R), which will materially change the purchase method of accounting. Please see Note 5 for further discussion of the impact of adopting SFAS No.&nbsp;141(R). </FONT></P> <P

compensation liabilities owed to Nuvelo employees as a result of the change of control obligations and other severance agreement payments that will become due as a result of the merger. An estimate of costs related to vacating Nuvelo&#146;s

liabilities, once determined, may be material and may include additional costs of vacating facilities and costs to exit or terminate other duplicative activities. Liabilities related to restructuring Nuvelo&#146;s operations would be recorded as an
adjustment to the purchase price and a decrease in the negative goodwill. Liabilities related to restructuring ARCA&#146;s operations would be recorded as expenses in ARCA&#146;s statement of operations in the period that costs are incurred.

million of the purchase price represents purchased in-process research and development primarily related to projects associated with the Nuvelo NU206, NU172 and cancer antibody programs. The fair value of in-process research and development was
determined using an income approach, as well as discussions with Nuvelo management and a review of certain program-related documents and forecasts prepared by Nuvelo management. The income approach, a valuation method that establishes the business
value based on a stream of future economic benefits, such as net cash flows, discounted to their present value, included probability adjustments to project expenses and revenue in order to reflect the expected probabilities of incurring development
cost prior to commercialization and the probability of achieving commercial revenue due to drug discovery and regulatory risks. The rates utilized to discount probability adjusted net cash flows to their present values range from 16% to 18%, and
reflect the time value of money and risks of commercialization, sales, and competition, which are risk elements explicitly not addressed in the probability adjustments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

Company has a lease commitment for a 139,000-square-foot facility at 985 Almanor Avenue, Sunnyvale, California, which expires on May&nbsp;30, 2011. In September 2005, Nuvelo relocated the Company&#146;s headquarters to a facility located at 201
Industrial Road, San Carlos, California. Through December 2006, the Company retained the Sunnyvale facility as a storage location. In December 2006, the Company approved a plan to exit the Sunnyvale facility and restore the building for potential
sublease. On December&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company exited the Sunnyvale facility and accrued $26.6 million to reflect the estimated present value of future lease-related payments less estimated net income from sublease rental. The future lease-related

including vacancy rates and lease activities for similar facilities within the area. As of March&nbsp;31, 2008, the Company determined that the likelihood of subleasing the Sunnyvale facility during the remainder of the lease term has become remote
and, therefore, recorded a $1.5 million charge to reflect such change in the sublease assumption. The charge increased the net loss per share by $0.03 for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2008. </FONT></P> <P

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;142, &#147;<I>Goodwill and other Intangible Assets</I>,&#148; (SFAS 142). Consistent with the determination that the Company has only one reporting segment, it has determined that there is only
one reporting unit and, therefore, goodwill is tested at the entity level. The Company has elected October&nbsp;31</FONT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="1"><SUP>st</SUP></FONT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"> as its measurement date. The

two-step test for goodwill impairment. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of the Company to its carrying value. The Company generally bases its fair value on its market capitalization, which is based on quoted market prices of
its common stock, taking into account other factors that may affect the fair value of the Company as a whole. If the fair value of the Company exceeds the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is not impaired and the Company is not required to
proceed to the second step of the impairment test. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the first quarter of 2008, the Company performed a goodwill impairment test due to
the significant decline of its stock price subsequent to the alfimeprase announcement on March&nbsp;17, 2008 (see Note 5, Restructuring). Significant judgment is required to evaluate the fair value of the Company, as quoted market prices of the
Company&#146;s common stock and consequently market capitalization may experience significant fluctuations in reaction to disclosures of new information about the Company. Based on the upward trend in the price of the Company&#146;s common stock
following the initial decrease after the announcement and through the filing of the Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2008, management concluded that the market capitalization following the initial market reaction to the announcement did not
provide a good indication of the Company&#146;s fair value. Accordingly, management concluded that the carrying value of the net assets currently did not exceed the Company&#146;s fair value and consequently, goodwill was not impaired at
March&nbsp;31, 2008. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the second quarter of 2008, the Company performed an additional goodwill impairment test as the upward trend in
the market price of the Company&#146;s common stock did not continue and the Company&#146;s market capitalization remained lower than its carrying value. Since the carrying value exceeded the fair value, at June&nbsp;30, 2008, the Company performed
the second step in order to determine the implied fair value of the Company&#146;s goodwill to compare it to the carrying value of goodwill. The activities in the second step included valuing the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of the
Company based on their fair value and determining the implied goodwill based upon the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the net fair values of identified tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. Based on the results
of the second step of calculating the implied goodwill, the Company recorded an impairment charge of the full balance of goodwill totaling $4.7 million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company has made acquisitions of businesses that include goodwill. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;142, &#147;<I>Goodwill and
other Intangible Assets</I>&#148; (SFAS 142), which requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the &#147;reporting unit level&#148; (&#147;reporting unit&#148;) at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of certain events, as
defined by SFAS 142. Consistent with the Company&#146;s determination that it has only one reporting segment, it has determined that there is only one reporting unit. The Company tests goodwill for impairment in the annual impairment test on
October&nbsp;31 using the two-step process required by SFAS 142. First, the Company reviews the carrying amount of the reporting unit compared to the &#147;fair value&#148; of the reporting unit based on quoted market prices of our common stock and
on discounted cash flows based on analyses prepared by management. An excess carrying value compared to fair value would indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Second, if the Company determines that goodwill may be impaired, then the Company
compares the &#147;implied fair value&#148; of the goodwill, as defined by SFAS 142, to its carrying amount to determine the impairment loss, if any. Based on these estimates, the Company determined that as of October&nbsp;31, 2007 there was no
impairment of goodwill. Since October&nbsp;31, 2007, there have been no indications of impairment. The next annual impairment test will occur as of October&nbsp;31, 2008; however, the Company will continue to review for signs of impairment on a
quarterly basis. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;144, &#147;<I>Accounting for Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets</I>&#148; (SFAS 144), the Company evaluates long-lived assets, other than goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable based on
expected undiscounted cash flows attributable to that asset. The amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset. In June 2007, the Company recorded a $1.1&nbsp;million
charge related to an impairment of software implementation costs that were previously capitalized and deemed not recoverable, as the Company determined that the likelihood of completing the software implementation is remote. The $1.1 million charge
was included in general and administrative expenses for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Revenue Recognition </I></B></FONT></P> <P

collaboration partners, laboratories, consultants, or otherwise. Related contracts vary significantly in length, and may be for a fixed amount, a variable amount based on actual costs incurred, capped at a certain limit, or for a combination of
these elements. Activity levels are monitored through communications with the CROs and other vendors, including detailed invoices and task completion review, analysis of expenses against budgeted amounts, and pre-approval of any changes in scope of
the services to be performed. Certain significant vendors may also provide an estimate of costs incurred but not invoiced on a periodic basis. Expenses related to the CROs and clinical study sites are primarily based on patient enrollment or
progress made against specified milestones or targets in each period. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards

as a result of the failure of the first trial in each of two Phase 3 programs for alfimeprase to meet their primary endpoints, the Company suspended enrollment in the second trial in each of these programs. Due to the increased uncertainty over the
future of this drug program, management reassessed the probability of alternative future use of previously capitalized alfimeprase clinical trial supplies and determined that they no longer met the criteria for capitalization under SFAS 2, which
represents a change in accounting estimate. Accordingly, in December 2006, a $19.0 million charge was recorded related to alfimeprase clinical trial supplies, and an additional $2.2 million was charged in relation to other drug programs as a result
of a similar review. The total charge of $21.2 million, or $0.41 per share, was included in research and development expenses in the 2006 statement of operations. During 2007, the Company determined that there were no alternative future uses for all
current drug supplies and that all expenditures related to clinical trial supplies were charged to expense as incurred in 2007. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Stock-based

compensation cost is generally measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee&#146;s requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures.&nbsp;The Company previously applied

SFAS No.&nbsp;123,<I> &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation&#148;</I> (SFAS 123). The Company has adopted the modified prospective application method as provided by SFAS 123(R). Under the modified prospective method, the fair values of new

awards. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires assumptions to be made for the expected term of the awards, expected volatility of the Company&#146;s stock price, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend yields. The Company then
amortizes compensation cost for awards expected to vest over the related vesting periods, generally four years for employee stock options. For options granted prior to January&nbsp;1, 2006, the Company continues to use the graded-vested
(multiple-option) method for expense attribution. Prior to January&nbsp;1, 2006, option forfeitures were recognized on a pro forma basis as they occurred. For options granted after January&nbsp;1, 2006, the Company is using the straight-line
(single-option) method for expense attribution, estimates forfeitures based on historical data and only recognizes expense for those shares expected to vest. Adjustments to the forfeiture rate are made if actual forfeitures differ from previous
estimates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">For all option grants, the Company considers historical data, including post-vesting termination behavior, and the contractual

common stock. For options granted after January&nbsp;1, 2006, the Company is using a combination of historic and implied volatility of the Company&#146;s common stock to derive expected volatility. The risk-free interest rate assumptions are based
on the yield of U.S. Treasury instruments with similar durations as the expected term of the related awards. The expected dividend yield assumption is based on the Company&#146;s historic and expected dividend payouts. </FONT></P> <P

value measurements, clarifies the application of other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The effective date for the Company is January&nbsp;1, 2008. However, in February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff
Position No. FAS 157-2, &#147;<I>Effective Date of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;157&#148;</I> (FSP 157-2), which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except items that are recognized or disclosed

consultants of the Company, except for incentive stock options, which may be granted only to employees. The 2004 Plan supersedes all prior option plans (detailed below), and no new awards will be granted under these prior plans. As a result of the
adoption of the 2004 Plan, all shares previously reserved for issuance under the prior plans and remaining for grant are now reserved for issuance under the 2004 Plan. Additionally, shares outstanding under the prior plans that are subject to
options that expire or otherwise are forfeited become reserved for issuance under the 2004 Plan. As of December&nbsp;31, 2007, options to purchase 5,394,114 shares and 86,000 restricted stock units were outstanding under the 2004 Plan, and 5,759,732

and the plan supersedes and replaces any change in control and/or severance plans adopted previously. The plan provides that, upon a change in control of the Company as defined under the plan, all Nuvelo stock options and stock awards held by a plan
participant will become fully vested. Such shares held by a plan participant will also become fully vested if the participant is terminated without cause or constructively terminated within one month preceding a change in control. In addition, if a
participant is terminated without cause or constructively terminated outside the context of change in control, he or she shall be immediately credited with an additional year of vesting with respect to Nuvelo stock options and stock awards held. If
a change in control occurs in the future, it is possible that material additional stock-based compensation expense could be incurred. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

units vest at the anniversary date of the grant. No restricted stock units were granted prior to 2007. Restricted stock units granted under the 2004 Plan have no exercise price and have a fair value equal to the average of the high and low prices of
the Company&#146;s common stock on the date of grant, in accordance with the Company&#146;s stock award pricing practice. The unamortized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock units as of December&nbsp;31, 2007, excluding

down any of the funds available under the $8.0 million revolving credit line, although $6.0 million of this amount was reserved to collateralize a letter of credit issued to The Irvine Company, the landlord of the Sunnyvale facility, and of the
remaining $2.0 million, a portion was reserved as collateral for foreign exchange hedging contracts with SVB and a portion was available for working capital and other general business needs. Any borrowings under this line bore interest at SVB&#146;s
prime rate and would cause replacement collateral to be required for the items above. In September 2007, the Company repaid in full the remaining principal balance under the SVB term loan facility and did not renew the Loan and Security Agreement
after its expiration. The $6.0 million letter of credit is now being collateralized by a certificate of deposit of the same amount, which is recorded as restricted cash, and the Company has no outstanding foreign currency hedging contracts.

for 61,826 square feet of space at 201 Industrial Road in San Carlos, California, at $2.35 per square foot per month, subject to annual increases of $0.07 per square foot per month. The Company uses this facility for its headquarters. The lease term
commenced on September&nbsp;1, 2005, and the lease contains an option to cancel after five years upon payment of certain amounts specified in the lease, two options to extend the lease for five additional years, each at 95% of the then-current fair
market rental rate (but not less than the existing rental rate), rights of first refusal over all vacant space in the building during the first two years of the lease, and an expansion option for a specified amount of space. The lease contains a
tenant improvement allowance of $8.9 million, which was fully utilized in 2005, and has been recorded to leasehold improvements and deferred rent, with the respective balances being charged to depreciation and credited to rent expense over the lease
term. The rent expense for the lease on the San Carlos facility is being recognized as expense on a straight-line basis. In March 2006, the lease on this property was amended to provide for the exercise of the Company&#146;s expansion option over
7,624 square feet of rentable space. The amendment allows for a tenant improvement allowance of $1.0 million, which was fully utilized in 2006, and the related lease rental payments commenced in August 2006. </FONT></P> <P

Company raises $75.0 million or more in cash as a result of a single public or private equity offering, a portion of the remaining lease payments equal to the lesser of (i)&nbsp;10% of any amount raised in excess of $75.0 million, or (ii)&nbsp;the
remaining outstanding rent deferrals as specified in the lease, or amendments thereto, becomes payable upon closing of the equity offering. In February 2006, as a result of a public offering (see Note 9), the Company paid the landlord
$3.7&nbsp;million of the outstanding rent deferrals under this provision of the lease. As of December&nbsp;31, 2007, the remaining outstanding rent deferrals totaled $1.7 million. The Company also has a letter of credit related to this lease in the
amount of $6.0 million (see Note 7). As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company ceased use of the Sunnyvale facility, as it was no longer required for the Company&#146;s business (see Note 5). </FONT></P> <P

June&nbsp;5, 1998. The rights are exercisable only if a person or entity or affiliated group of persons or entities acquires, or has announced its intention to acquire, 15% (27.5% in the case of certain approved stockholders) or more of the
Company&#146;s outstanding common stock. The adoption of the rights plan makes it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of the Company without the approval of the Board of Directors. This rights agreement was amended in March 2004 to

million, from the sale of 7,475,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $16.00 per share. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including the advancement of drug candidates in
clinical trials, capital spending and working capital. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In August 2005, the Company entered into a Committed Equity Financing Facility
(CEFF) with Kingsbridge Capital Ltd. (Kingsbridge), under which Kingsbridge has committed to purchase up to $75.0 million of the Company&#146;s common stock within a three-year period, subject to certain conditions and limitations. As part of the
arrangement, the Company issued a warrant to Kingsbridge to purchase 350,000 shares of the Company&#146;s common stock at a price of approximately $12.07 per share, which is exercisable beginning six months after the date of grant and for a period
of five years thereafter. Under the CEFF, the Company may require Kingsbridge to purchase newly-issued shares of common stock at prices between 90% and 94% of the volume weighted average price (VWAP) on each trading day during an eight-day pricing
period. The value of the maximum number of shares the Company may issue in any pricing period is the lesser of 2.5% of the Company&#146;s market capitalization immediately prior to the commencement of the pricing period, or $10.0 million. The
minimum VWAP for determining the purchase price at which the Company&#146;s stock may be sold in any pricing period is the greater of $2.50 or 85% of the closing price of the Company&#146;s common stock on the day prior to the commencement of the
pricing period. The CEFF also required the Company to file a resale registration statement with respect to the resale of shares issued pursuant to the CEFF and underlying the warrant, to use commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration
statement declared effective by the SEC, which occurred in October 2005, and to maintain its effectiveness. The Company may sell a maximum of 8,075,000 shares under the CEFF (exclusive of the shares underlying the warrant), which may further limit
the potential proceeds from the CEFF. The Company is not obligated to sell any of the $75.0 million of common stock available under the CEFF, and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties. Under the CEFF, the Company sold 1,839,400
shares for gross proceeds of $14.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2005, and a further 568,247 shares for gross proceeds of $10.0 million in October 2006, and may sell the balance of 5,667,353 shares to Kingsbridge through the expiration of the
CEFF in October 2008, limited to the remaining $50.6 million available under the facility, subject to the limitations noted above. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

were outstanding and exercisable at exercise prices ranging from $12.07 to $24.87, with a weighted average exercise price per share of $19.57. These warrants, which were granted as part of various financing and business agreements, expire at various
times between January 2009 and February 2011. Warrants are recorded at their estimated fair market value at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The fair value of the warrant issued to Kingsbridge, which was $2.1 million, or $5.94 per share, on the date of grant, was initially recorded as a
deferred financing cost to additional paid-in capital, with the opposing entry being to other current liabilities in the balance sheet due to the existence of a cash payment feature in the agreement that compensates Kingsbridge based on any
reduction in the fair value of shares held by Kingsbridge as a result of this agreement during a&nbsp;period in which Nuvelo fails to maintain the effectiveness of the abovementioned registration statement, or electively imposes a trading blackout
(i.e. a &#147;registration payment arrangement&#148;). The amount of compensation is payable in cash in both circumstances, or, at the sole discretion of Nuvelo, in shares of the Company&#146;s common stock in the event of a trading blackout.
Through September&nbsp;30, 2006, the current liability was marked-to-market at each quarter end, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, with the change being recorded to general and administrative expenses. As of December&nbsp;31, 2005 and
September&nbsp;30, 2006, the fair value of the warrant recorded in the Company&#146;s balance sheet was $1.5 million and $4.3 million, with $0.6&nbsp;million and $2.8 million having been credited and charged to expense in 2005 and 2006,
respectively. On October&nbsp;1, 2006, the Company early adopted the provisions of FASB Staff Position&nbsp;No.&nbsp;EITF&nbsp;00-19-2, <I>&#147;Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements,&#148;</I> which requires that contingent obligations
to make future payments under a registration payment arrangement be recognized and measured separately in accordance with SFAS No.&nbsp;5,<I> &#147;Accounting for Contingencies.&#148;</I> The Company believes the likelihood of such a cash payment to
be not probable, and therefore does not need to recognize a liability for such obligations. Accordingly, on October&nbsp;1, 2006, a cumulative-effect adjustment of $2.2 million was recorded in the statement of operations to reflect the difference
between the initial fair value of this warrant and its fair value as of this date, and the initial fair value of the warrant of $2.1&nbsp;million was reclassified from other current liabilities to additional paid-in capital in the consolidated
balance sheet. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>10.&nbsp;Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

Nuvelo entered into a collaboration agreement with Kirin Pharma Company, Limited (Kirin) for the development and commercialization of NU206. In accordance with the terms of this agreement, the Company received a $2.0 million up-front cash payment
from Kirin in April 2005, which was deferred and is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the related performance period through 2013. Nuvelo leads worldwide development, manufacturing and commercialization of the compound. All operating
expenses and any profits related to the development and commercialization of NU206 are being shared 60 percent by Nuvelo and 40 percent by Kirin. If this agreement is terminated, or Kirin or Nuvelo elects under certain circumstances to no longer
actively participate in the collaboration, the relationship with respect to NU206 will convert from an expense and profit-sharing structure to a royalty-based structure. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

other rNAPc molecules owned by Dendreon Corporation, as a result of a licensing agreement entered into in February 2004. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid Dendreon an up-front fee of $4.0&nbsp;million ($0.5 million in cash and $3.5
million in Nuvelo common stock) in 2004, which was recorded as a research and development expense. Future milestone payments to Dendreon could reach as much as $23.5 million if all development and commercialization milestones are achieved. If rNAPc2
is commercialized, Nuvelo will also be responsible for paying royalties to Dendreon depending on sales of rNAPc2. The Company has suspended its clinical development of rNAPc2, which could impact its current relationship and license with Dendreon.

agreement for the development and commercialization of alfimeprase effective June&nbsp;30, 2007. The Company agreed to waive Bayer&#146;s obligation to provide Nuvelo 12 months&#146; notice of termination in consideration of Bayer&#146;s agreement
to pay Nuvelo a lump sum of $15.0 million. Nuvelo also granted Bayer the option to reacquire rights to alfimeprase upon the initiation of a pivotal stroke trial or upon Nuvelo&#146;s public announcement that it is discontinuing further development
of alfimeprase in the stroke indication. The notice period during which Bayer may exercise the option begins upon the Company making certain information available to Bayer and lasts for 30 days after delivery of the information. If Bayer exercises
the option, Bayer is required to make a $15.0 million non-refundable payment to Nuvelo and the parties are required to enter into a new license and collaboration agreement on substantially the same terms as the original agreement, with the exception
of the $50.0 million up-front payment and the milestone payment related to a Phase 2 trial in a stroke indication that were part of the terms of the original agreement. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the original terminated agreement, Bayer had the right to commercialize alfimeprase in all territories outside the&nbsp;United States and, if commercialized, would pay tiered royalties on net sales of
alfimeprase, if any. Nuvelo retained all commercialization rights and profits from any alfimeprase sales in the United States. The Company received a non-refundable, up-front cash payment from Bayer of $50.0 million upon entry into the agreement.
The $50.0 million up-front cash payment was deferred upon receipt and was being recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the performance period under the agreement, originally estimated to be through September 2020.&nbsp;Nuvelo was
responsible for 60 percent of any costs for alfimeprase global development programs, and Bayer was responsible for the remaining 40 percent, where &#147;global development programs&#148; refers to clinical trials conducted to support regulatory
approval in major countries around the world. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a result of the termination of the license and collaboration agreement in June 2007, the
Company recognized in revenues the remaining unamortized balance of the cash up-front payment, which totaled $44.9 million, as the Company had no additional obligations or deliverables under the agreement. The $15.0 million payment related to the
termination was recorded as deferred revenue and will remain as such until the Bayer option is exercised or expires at the conclusion of the notice period. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the cost-sharing arrangement, a total of $3.0 million and $28.9 million was billed to Bayer for Nuvelo&#146;s alfimeprase-related global development spending for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively, and was recorded as an offset to research and development expense in the statements of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>12.&nbsp;Foreign Currency Derivatives

are denominated in British pounds. In order to reduce exposure to fluctuations in the British pound prior to any payment made under this contract, the Company had entered into a number of foreign currency forward hedging contracts, all maturing or
having matured within one year, and all being designated as cash flow hedges under SFAS 133. In accordance with SFAS 133, all derivatives, such as foreign currency forward contracts, are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance
sheet and measured at fair value. At hedge inception, critical terms in the derivative contract that may not precisely match the contract&nbsp;over its life are evaluated for effectiveness using regression analysis. Ongoing effectiveness had been
calculated by affirming the probability of the transaction and comparing, on a spot-to-spot basis, the change in fair value of the hedge contract to the change in fair value of the forecasted transaction (the underlying hedged item). The effective
component of hedge gains and losses was recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders&#146; equity in the balance sheet and reclassified to research and development expenses in the statement of operations when the forecasted
transaction itself was recorded to the statement of operations. Any residual </FONT>

realized. The valuation allowance decreased by $3.8&nbsp;million for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007, increased by $52.6 million for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2006 and decreased by $20.0 million for the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2005. The deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance as of December&nbsp;31, 2006 and 2005 have been adjusted to reflect the annual limitation as a result of ownership changes discussed below. In addition, the Company performed a
reconciliation of other deferred tax assets and made certain adjustments reflected in the deferred tax asset and valuation allowance balances for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2006, 2005 and 2004. None of these adjustments had any impact on the
Company&#146;s statement of operations or financial position. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The utilization of the Company&#146;s net operating loss carryforwards and
tax credit carryforwards are subject to annual limitation due to the ownership changes per the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such an annual limitation may result in the expiration of the net operating loss before utilization.
In 2007 the Company completed a review of its ownership changes and concluded certain common stock offerings prior to 2006 resulted in ownership changes that triggered a net operating loss carryforward annual limitation. This annual limitation per
Section&nbsp;382 of the Internal Revenue Code results in approximately $119.0 million in net operating loss carryforwards for years up to and including 2005 expiring not utilized. Similarly, approximately $12.0 million of research tax credits will
expire unused. Adjusting for the annual limitation, at December&nbsp;31, 2007, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $351.3 million which begin to expire in year 2009, and federal tax
credits of approximately $2.5 million which begin to expire in 2026. At December&nbsp;31, 2007, the Company also had state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $142.7 million which begin to expire in 2012 and state tax credits of
approximately $6.6 million which have no expiration date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Approximately $13.3 million of the federal net operating losses and $7.2 million

of its subsidiary to SBH Genomics, Inc. (SBH) on December&nbsp;3, 2004, the Company received a convertible promissory note from SBH with a principal amount of $0.9 million. The promissory note is convertible into SBH&#146;s preferred shares if SBH
raises at least $2.0 million in venture capital financing within four years after the date of the sale. This preferred stock will be converted at the same price per share at which it is sold to the venture capital investors and will be granted the
same rights and preferences as those provided to the venture capital investors. If SBH fails to raise at least $2.0 million in venture capital financing within this period, the promissory note will become due and payable. No interest or principal
was payable on the promissory note for the two years through December&nbsp;3, 2006. Simple interest of prime rate plus 1%&nbsp;per annum is payable in the third and fourth years on a quarterly basis. Prime rate was set as of the second anniversary
of the sale and adjusted on the third anniversary. The Company has assessed the value of the promissory note to be zero due to the improbability of any collection. Interest income is credited to income in the period received. </FONT></P> <P

STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On February&nbsp;9, 2007, Nuvelo, Inc. and certain of its former and current officers and directors were named as defendants in a purported securities
class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The suit alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 related to the clinical trial results of alfimeprase, which the Company
announced on December&nbsp;11, 2006, and seeks damages on behalf of purchasers of the Company&#146;s common stock during the period between January&nbsp;5, 2006 and December&nbsp;8, 2006. Specifically, the suit alleges that the Company misled
investors regarding the efficacy of alfimeprase and the drug&#146;s likelihood of success. The plaintiff seeks unspecified damages and injunctive relief. Six additional lawsuits were filed in the Southern District of New York on February&nbsp;16,
2007,&nbsp;March&nbsp;1, 2007 and March&nbsp;6, 2007, respectively. On April&nbsp;10, 2007, six separate motions to consolidate the cases, appoint lead plaintiff, and appoint lead plaintiff&#146;s counsel were filed. On April&nbsp;18, 2007, the
Company filed a motion to transfer the four cases to the Northern District of California. The Court granted the Company&#146;s motion to transfer the cases to the Northern District of California in July 2007. Plaintiffs have filed motions for
consolidation, lead plaintiff and lead plaintiff&#146;s counsel in the Northern District of California. Plaintiffs filed their consolidated complaint in the Northern District of California on November&nbsp;9, 2007. The Company filed a motion to
dismiss plaintiffs consolidated complaint on December&nbsp;21, 2007. Plaintiffs filed an opposition to the Company&#146;s motion to dismiss on February&nbsp;4, 2008. The motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint is still pending. The Company
currently cannot determine the impact that this litigation will have on its business, results of operations or financial condition. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On
March&nbsp;19, 2007, the Company received a summons related to a derivative suit that had been filed in the Superior Court for California, San Mateo County, by an alleged individual stockholder of Nuvelo, purportedly on behalf of Nuvelo against
certain of Nuvelo&#146;s current and former officers and directors. The complaint alleges among other claims, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to Nuvelo by issuing or failing to prevent the issuance of purportedly false and
misleading statements between January&nbsp;5, 2006 and December&nbsp;11, 2006 relating to the clinical trial results of alfimeprase, which the Company announced on December&nbsp;11, 2006, and that certain defendants benefited from these actions. On
April&nbsp;18, 2007, the Company filed a demurrer to the complaint on the ground that plaintiff was not excused from issuing a demand to the board prior to filing the lawsuit. Plaintiffs filed oppositions to the Company&#146;s demurrer, and the
Company has subsequently filed replies to Plaintiffs&#146; oppositions. The Court heard this motion on July&nbsp;30, 2007, and granted the Company&#146;s demurrer, but also granted plaintiffs the opportunity to file an amended complaint. Plaintiffs
filed an amended complaint on October&nbsp;15, 2007. The Company filed its reply to their amended complaint on December&nbsp;6, 2007. The Court heard the motion on December&nbsp;17, 2007. On January&nbsp;2, 2008, the Superior Court for California,
San Mateo County, entered final judgment dismissing in its entirety, with prejudice, the second amended consolidated derivative complaint. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On or about December&nbsp;6, 2001, Variagenics, Inc. was sued in a complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New
York naming it and certain of its officers and underwriters as defendants. The complaint purportedly is filed on behalf of persons purchasing Variagenics&#146; stock between July&nbsp;21, 2000 and December&nbsp;6, 2000, and alleges violations of
Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section&nbsp;10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint alleges that, in connection with Variagenics&#146;
July&nbsp;21, 2000 initial public offering, or IPO, the defendants failed to disclose additional and excessive commissions purportedly solicited by and paid to the underwriter defendants in exchange for allocating shares of Variagenics&#146; stock
to preferred customers and alleged agreements among the underwriter defendants and preferred customers tying the allocation of IPO shares to agreements to make additional aftermarket purchases at predetermined prices. Plaintiffs claim that the
failure to disclose these alleged arrangements made Variagenics&#146; registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC in July 2000 and the prospectus, a part of the registration statement, materially false and misleading. Plaintiffs seek
unspecified damages. On or about April&nbsp;19, 2002, an amended complaint was filed which makes essentially the same allegations. On or about July&nbsp;15, 2002, Variagenics and the individuals filed a motion to dismiss. The Company is involved in
this litigation as a result of the merger with Variagenics in January 2003. On July&nbsp;16, 2003, Nuvelo&#146;s Board of Directors approved a settlement proposal initiated by the plaintiffs. However, because of a recent court ruling, the settlement
class, as defined in the settlement papers, is no longer feasible. While a new complaint has not been filed against the Company, there are several &#147;focus&#148; cases against other Issuers in which new complaints have been filed. In these cases
the defendant Issuers have moved to dismiss the complaints and have also opposed plaintiffs revised motions for class certification. The Company and other defendant issuers have been advised that the plaintiffs intend to file second, amended,
consolidated complaints against the Company and the other defendant issuers at some point. If such a complaint is filed, the Company intends to file another motion to dismiss. The Company believes that any attorneys&#146; fees, loss or settlement
payment with respect to this suit will be paid by the Company&#146;s insurance provider. However, it is possible that the Company could be forced to incur material expenses in the litigation if the parties cannot achieve a settlement, and, in the
event of an adverse outcome, the Company&#146;s business could be harmed. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

other development stage companies, including dependence on key individuals, the development of and approval of commercially viable products, the need to obtain adequate additional financing necessary to fund the development and commercialization of
its products, and competition from larger companies. The Company has historically funded its operations through issuances of convertible notes payable, and common and preferred stock. </FONT></P> <P

Company incurred a net loss of $14.0 million and had negative cash flows from operations of $11.6 million. During 2007, the Company received approximately $18&nbsp;million from the sale of shares of Series&nbsp;B Preferred Stock. For the six months

the Company&#146;s cash requirements, additional equity or debt financing or the implementation of cost reductions may be required in order to meet future working capital needs and achieve intended business objectives. There can be no assurance that
such additional financing will be available or, if available, that such financing can be obtained on terms satisfactory to the Company. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:18px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

January&nbsp;1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No.&nbsp;157. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, which provides a one year deferral of the effective date of SFAS 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial
liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed in the financial statements at fair value at least annually. SFAS No.&nbsp;157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting
principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No.&nbsp;157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. The standard
describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, the first two of which are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. The adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;157 had no impact on the
Company&#146;s financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;157 for non-financial assets and liabilities. </FONT></P> <P

of the 2004 Stock Option Plan, or the Plan, options to purchase an aggregate of 6,356,550&nbsp;shares of the Company&#146;s common stock are authorized for awards to employees, officers, directors, agents, consultants, and independent contractors of
the Company. Under the terms of the Plan, the purchase price per share of a nonqualified stock option cannot be less than 85% of the estimated fair value of the Company&#146;s common stock at the time of grant. The purchase price per share of an
incentive stock option cannot be less than 100% of the estimated fair value per share of the Company&#146;s common stock at the time of grant. In no case is the option price of any option less than the par value per share of ARCA common stock.
Options granted under the Plan are exercisable for a period up to 10&nbsp;years from date of grant. Options typically vest over four years at a rate of 25% after 12 months from the date of grant, and ratably per quarter thereafter, conditioned upon
continued employment. Upon adoption of the Plan in 2004, the board of directors authorized 700,000 shares for the plan. This was the only option activity for the 2004 year. The board of directors authorized an increase in the number of shares in the
plan of 2,433,645, 2,164,361, and 1,090,333, during 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively. During the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2008 the board of directors reallocated shares from the Plan to Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock related to the
Company&#146;s issuance of Series B Redeemable Preferred Stock Warrants. This reallocation resulted in a reduction of 31,789 shares available for issuance under the plan. To the extent required by law, the exercise price of a nonqualified stock
option may not be less than the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

some portion or all deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company&#146;s ability to realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets will depend on the generation of future taxable income through profitable operations. Due to the
Company&#146;s history of losses and the uncertainty of future profitable operations, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets increased by $5.5 million in
2007. At December&nbsp;31, 2007, the Company has approximately $19.8 million of net operating loss carryforwards and approximately $203,000 of research and experimentation credits which may be used to offset future taxable income. The carryforwards
will expire in 2025 through 2027. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Utilization of net operating losses and tax credits may be subject to an annual limitation due to

No.&nbsp;109</I>, or FIN 48. The purpose of FIN 48 is to clarify certain aspects of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income tax uncertainties. Under FIN 48 the impact of uncertain tax positions must be recognized in the
financial statements if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon audit by a relevant taxing authority. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company
adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. Upon adoption of FIN 48 and through June&nbsp;30, 2008 (unaudited), the Company had no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly
increase or decrease within twelve months from the date of adoption of FIN 48 or from June&nbsp;30, 2008 (unaudited). In the event the Company concludes it is subject to interest or penalties arising from uncertain tax positions, the Company will
record interest and penalties as a component of other income and expense. No amounts of interest or penalties were recognized in ARCA&#146;s financial statements for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2008 (unaudited). </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Since the Company is in a loss carryforward position, the Company is generally subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax
authorities for all years for which a loss carryforward is available. Thus, upon adoption of FIN 48, the Company&#146;s open tax years extend back to 2005. The Company believes that its tax filing positions and deductions related to tax periods
subject to examination will be sustained upon audit and does not anticipate any adjustment will result in a material adverse effect on the Company&#146;s financial condition, result of operations, or cash flow. Therefore, no reserve for uncertain
income tax positions has been recorded pursuant to FIN 48. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:18px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

intended to be qualified under Section&nbsp;401(a) of the Code, there has been no event, condition or circumstance that has adversely affected or is likely to adversely affect its tax-qualified status. No &#147;prohibited transaction,&#148; within
the meaning of Section&nbsp;4975 of the Code or Sections 406 and 407 of ERISA, that is not otherwise exempt under Section&nbsp;408 of ERISA, has occurred with respect to any Parent Employee Plan. There are no claims or Legal Proceedings pending, or,
to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened or reasonably anticipated (other than routine claims for benefits), against any Parent Employee Plan or against the assets of any Parent Employee Plan. Each Parent Employee Plan can be amended, terminated or
otherwise discontinued after the Closing in accordance with its terms, without liability to the Company, any of the Acquiring Corporations or any Parent Affiliate (other than ordinary administration expenses), subject to applicable Legal
Requirements. There are no audits, inquiries or Legal Proceedings pending or, to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened by the IRS, the DOL, or any other Governmental Body with respect to any Parent Employee Plan or Parent Employee Agreement. No
Acquiring Corporation, and no Parent Affiliate, has ever incurred any penalty or tax with respect to any Parent Employee Plan under Section&nbsp;502(i) of ERISA, under Sections 4975 through 4980 of the Code or under any other applicable Legal
Requirement. Each of the Acquiring Corporations and Parent Affiliates have timely made all contributions and other payments required by and due under the terms of each Parent Employee Plan and Parent Employee Agreement. </FONT></P> <P

of the merger or consolidation or (ii)&nbsp;the surviving or resulting corporation shall send such a second notice to all such holders on or within 10 days after such effective date; provided, however, that if such second notice is sent more than 20
days following the sending of the first notice, such second notice need only be sent to each stockholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of such holder&#146;s shares in accordance with this subsection. An affidavit
of the secretary or assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required to give either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For
purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than 10 days prior to the date the notice is given, provided, that if the notice is
given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the record date shall be such effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to the effective date, the record date shall be the close of business on the
day next preceding the day on which the notice is given. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

corporation or any stockholder who has complied with subsections (a)&nbsp;and (d)&nbsp;of this Section hereof and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, may commence an appraisal proceeding by filing a petition in the Court of Chancery
demanding a determination of the value of the stock of all such stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any stockholder who has not commenced an appraisal
proceeding or joined that proceeding as a named party shall have the right to withdraw such stockholder&#146;s demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the merger or consolidation. Within 120 days after the effective date of the
merger or consolidation, any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of subsections (a)&nbsp;and (d)&nbsp;of this Section hereof, upon written request, shall be entitled to receive from the corporation surviving the merger or resulting
from the consolidation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not voted in favor of the merger or consolidation and with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares.
Such written statement shall be mailed to the stockholder within 10 days after such stockholder&#146;s written request for such a statement is received by the surviving or resulting corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the period for
delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection (d)&nbsp;of this Section hereof, whichever is later. Notwithstanding subsection (a)&nbsp;of this section, a person who is the beneficial owner of shares of such stock held either in a voting trust

reached by the surviving or resulting corporation. If the petition shall be filed by the surviving or resulting corporation, the petition shall be accompanied by such a duly verified list. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Court, shall
give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by registered or certified mail to the surviving or resulting corporation and to the stockholders shown on the list at the addresses therein stated. Such notice shall also be
given by 1 or more publications at least 1 week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as the Court deems advisable. The forms of the notices by mail and

hold stock represented by certificates to submit their certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply with such direction, the Court may
dismiss the proceedings as to such stockholder. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">(h) After the Court determines the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the appraisal

element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger or consolidation, together with interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the Court shall take into
account all relevant factors. Unless the Court in its discretion determines otherwise for good cause shown, interest from the effective date of the merger through the date of payment of the judgment shall be compounded quarterly and shall accrue at
5% over the Federal Reserve discount rate (including any surcharge) as established from time to time during the period between the effective date of the merger and the date of payment of the judgment. Upon application by the surviving or resulting
corporation or by any stockholder entitled to participate in the appraisal proceeding, the Court may, in its discretion, proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior to the final determination of the stockholders entitled to an appraisal. Any

Court deems just; provided, however that this provision shall not affect the right of any stockholder who has not commenced an appraisal proceeding or joined that proceeding as a named party to withdraw such stockholder&#146;s demand for appraisal

These indemnification agreements may require Nuvelo, among other things, to indemnify its officers and directors against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, other than liabilities arising from
willful misconduct. These indemnification agreements also may require Nuvelo to advance any expenses incurred by the directors or officers as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they are indemnified. In addition, Nuvelo has purchased
a policy of directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability insurance that insures its directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances. These indemnification provisions and the
indemnification agreements may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of its officers and directors for liabilities, including reimbursement of expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. </FONT></P> <P
