INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

EXHIBIT 10.36

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

THIS INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the      day of             , 20    , by and between NIMBLEGEN SYSTEMS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and                      (“Indemnitee”), to become effective in such manner and at such time as provided herein.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) is considering a potential initial public offering of the Company’s common stock (the “IPO”);

WHEREAS, highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve as directors and/or executive officers of publicly-held corporations unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance and indemnification against risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of such corporations.

WHEREAS, directors and/or executive officers, in connection with the performance of their duties as such, are increasingly being subjected to costly and time-consuming liabilities and claims relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the corporation itself.

WHEREAS, the Board has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving the Company and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities. Nevertheless, the Board recognizes the limitations on the protection provided by liability insurance and the uncertainties as to the scope and level of such coverage that may be available in the future.

WHEREAS, the Company’s directors and/or executive officers have certain existing indemnification arrangements pursuant to the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws and may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (“DGCL”). Nevertheless, the Board recognizes the limitations on the protection provided by such indemnification and the uncertainties as to its availability in any particular situation.

WHEREAS, the Board believes that in light of the limitations and uncertainties about the protection provided by the Company’s liability insurance and existing indemnification arrangements and the impact these uncertainties may have on the Company’s ability to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve as directors and/or executive officers, the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future.

WHEREAS, it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not be adequately protected.

WHEREAS, Indemnitee is concerned that the protection provided under the Company’s liability insurance and existing indemnification arrangements may not be adequate and may not be willing to serve as a director and/or executive officer of the Company without greater certainty concerning such protection, and the Company desires Indemnitee to serve in such capacity and is willing to provide such greater certainty.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby agree as follows:

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary (including, without limitation, Section 3.1, above, and Section 4.1 and Section 8.6(b), below), the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to indemnify Indemnitee from or against any Liabilities or Expenses incurred by Indemnitee, or to advance to Indemnitee any Expenses, in connection with:

ARTICLE 4

ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES; DEFENSE OF CLAIMS

4.1 Advances. The Company shall advance any Expenses incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection with a Proceeding within twenty (20) days after receipt by the Company of a written request for advancement of Expenses, which request

6

may be delivered to the Company at such time and from time to time as Indemnitee deems appropriate in Indemnitee’s sole discretion (whether prior to or after final disposition of any such Proceeding). Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay such amounts and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise. Any such advances shall be made on an unsecured basis and be interest free.

4.2 Repayment of Advances or Other Expenses. Indemnitee hereby agrees to reimburse the Company for all amounts advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 4.1, above, if it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled hereunder to be indemnified by the Company for such Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Indemnitee seeks a judicial adjudication or an arbitration pursuant to Section 6.1(a), below, Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company pursuant to this Section 4.2 until a final determination (as to which all rights of appeal have been exhausted or lapsed) has been made.

4.3 Defense of Claims.

(a) The Company will be entitled to participate in the defense of any Proceeding at its own expense. The Company will not settle any Proceeding (in whole or in part) which would impose any Expense, Liability or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and, where applicable, without the consent of the Company’s D&O Insurance carrier(s).

(b) Indemnitee will not settle any Proceeding (in whole or in part) which would impose any Expense, Liability or limitation on the Company without the Company’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and, where applicable, without the consent of the Company’s D&O Insurance carrier(s).

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in Section 4.3(a) and Section 4.3(b), above, the defense of any Proceeding shall be conducted in all respects in accordance with the terms of the Company’s D&O Insurance policies in effect at the time such Proceeding takes place.

ARTICLE 5

PROCEDURES FOR NOTIFICATION OF AND DETERMINATION OF

ENTITLEMENT TO INDEMNIFICATION

5.1 Request for Indemnification.

(a) Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing as soon as reasonably practicable (i) after being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding, or (ii) if the Company has not been previously notified, after receipt of written notice of any other matter with respect to which Indemnitee intends to seek indemnification or advancement of Expenses under Section 3.1 or Section 4.1, above. The omission by Indemnitee to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to Indemnitee (A) under this Agreement, except and only to the extent the Company can establish that such omission to notify resulted in actual material prejudice to the Company, or (B) otherwise than under this Agreement.

7

(b) Indemnitee may thereafter deliver to the Company a written request for indemnification pursuant to this Agreement at such time and from time to time as Indemnitee deems appropriate in Indemnitee’s sole discretion, which request shall also be deemed a request for advancement of Expenses under Section 4.1, above.

5.2 Determination of Entitlement.

(a) Except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 3.l(a) or Section 3.l(c), above, upon the final disposition of the matter that is the subject of the request for indemnification delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(b), above, a determination shall be made with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto in the specific case. If a Change in Control shall not have occurred, then such determination shall be made (i) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors or of a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors (in either case, even if representing less than a quorum of the Board), or (ii) if there are no Disinterested Directors or the Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, then such determination shall be made by Independent Counsel. Any determination made by Independent Counsel pursuant to this Section 5.2(a) shall be in the form of a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Person or Persons making such determination, including providing to such Person or Persons upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person or persons making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification), and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.

(b) If the determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification hereunder is to be made by Independent Counsel, then such Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 5.2(b). If a Change in Control shall not have occurred, then the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising Indemnitee of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected within ten (10) days after the final disposition of the matter that is the subject of the request for indemnification. If a Change in Control shall have occurred, then the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board, in which event the preceding sentence shall apply), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either case, the party receiving the notice may, within ten (10) days after receipt thereof, deliver to the other party a written objection to such selection; provided that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as

8

defined in Article 1 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the Person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If a proper and timely objection is made, the counsel selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court of competent jurisdiction (or, at Indemnitee’s option pursuant to Section 6.1, below, an arbitration) has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a request for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.1(b), above, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, then either the Company or Indemnitee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction (or, at Indemnitee’s option pursuant to Section 6.1, below, an arbitration) for resolution of any objection which shall have been made to the selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment of another Person as Independent Counsel, and the Person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the Person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of any Independent Counsel appointed pursuant to this Section 5.2(b) and to indemnify such Person against any and all expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto except for gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) If it is determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, then payment to Indemnitee shall be made within twenty (20) days after such determination.

5.3 Presumptions and Burdens of Proof; Effect of Certain Proceedings.

(a) In making any determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification hereunder, Indemnitee shall be entitled to a presumption that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 5.1(b), above, and the Company shall have the burden of coming forward with evidence and the burden of persuasion by a preponderance of the evidence to overcome that presumption.

(b) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not of itself create a presumption (i) that Indemnitee did not act in Good Faith, or (ii) that Indemnitee did not otherwise satisfy the applicable standard of conduct to be indemnified pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) For purposes of any determination of Good Faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in Good Faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Company or other Enterprise, as applicable, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of such entity in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for such entity or on information or records given or reports made to such entity by an independent certified public accountant, appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by such entity. The provisions of this Section 5.3(c) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way other circumstances in which Indemnitee may be deemed or found to have met the applicable standard of conduct to be indemnified pursuant to this Agreement.

9

(d) The knowledge or actions or failure to act of any other director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or other Enterprise, as applicable, shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining Indemnitee’s right to indemnification under this Agreement.

(e) If a determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall not have been made pursuant to this Agreement within sixty (60) days after the final disposition of the matter that is the subject of the request for indemnification, then the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made in favor of Indemnitee, and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent a misstatement of a material fact in the information provided by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 5.1(b) and Section 5.2(a), above, or an omission of a material fact necessary in order to make the information provided not misleading; provided that such sixty (60) day period will be extended for a period of up to an additional thirty (30) days after the selection of Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 5.2(b), above, if such determination is to be made by Independent Counsel and if the Company has acted with diligence and in good faith in the process of selecting Independent Counsel; and provided, further, that such sixty (60) day period (as so extended, if applicable) may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days, if the Person or Persons making the determination in good faith requires such additional time to obtain or evaluate any documentation or information relating thereto.

ARTICLE 6

REMEDIES OF INDEMNITEE

6.1 Adjudication or Arbitration.

(a) Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication (by a court of competent jurisdiction or, at Indemnitee’s option, through an arbitration conducted by a panel of arbitrators in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.1(c), below) of any determination pursuant to Section 5.2, above, that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. Any such adjudication shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial or arbitration on the merits, and any prior adverse determination shall not be referred to or introduced into evidence, create a presumption that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, be a defense or otherwise adversely affect Indemnitee.

(d) If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 5.2, above, that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 6.1, absent a misstatement of a material fact in the information provided by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 5.1(b) and Section 5.2(a), above, or an omission of a material fact necessary in order to make the information provided not misleading.

(e) In connection with any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 6.1, the Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek such adjudication, shall be precluded from asserting that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding or enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Company is bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Upon request by Indemnitee, the Company shall provide to Indemnitee copies of the D&O Insurance policy or policies as in effect from time to time. The Company shall promptly notify Indemnitee of any material changes in such insurance coverage.

8.1 Nonexclusivity of Rights. The rights of indemnification and advancement of Expenses provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled to under applicable law, the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, any other agreement to which Indemnitee is a party, any vote of the Company’s stockholders or resolution of the Company’s directors or otherwise, nor shall the rights hereunder be deemed a substitute for or diminish the rights of Indemnitee thereunder.

(b) The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder (or for which advancement is provided hereunder) if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.

(c) The Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other Enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of Expenses from such Enterprise.

8.3 Contribution. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf, whether for Liabilities and/or Expenses in connection with a Proceeding or other expenses relating to an indemnifiable event or transaction under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such action, suit or other proceeding in order to reflect (a) the relative benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving rise to such action, suit or other proceeding, and/or (b) the relative fault of the Company (and its directors, officers, employees and agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).
