PROXY STATEMENT FOR A
SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

Information About the Meeting, Meeting Materials, Voting and Proxies

Date, Time and Place of Meeting

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Amyris, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Amyris,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and similar terms), is asking for your proxy for use at a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. We are holding the Special Meeting on Thursday, September 12, 2013, at 3:30 p.m. Pacific Time, at our offices at 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, California 94608. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card are first being mailed to stockholders on or about August 26, 2013. The address of our principal executive offices is 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, California 94608.

Purpose of Meeting

On August 8, 2013, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“Securities Purchase Agreement”) for the sale and issuance of up to $73,057,060.41 of senior convertible promissory notes to existing investors, Maxwell (Mauritius) Pte Ltd (“Maxwell”), currently one of our largest stockholders, and Total Energies Nouvelles Activités USA (f.k.a. Total Gas & Power USA, SAS) (“Total”), currently our largest stockholder (the “Initial Note Offering”). The Initial Note Offering will consist of two tranches of note offerings, the first tranche, for the sale of up $42,616,618.57 of senior convertible promissory notes, is contemplated to occur following satisfaction of the closing conditions in the Securities Purchase Agreement, including stockholder approval of the transaction at the Special Meeting, and the second tranche, for the sale of up to $30,440,441.84 of senior convertible promissory notes, will occur at the option of the Company at any time up to 24 months after the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement following the satisfaction of certain closing conditions in the Securities Purchase Agreement, including stockholder approval of the transaction at the Special Meeting. The Initial Note Offering will also involve the issuance to Maxwell of a warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price per share of $0.01 that will be exercisable only if Total converts certain existing convertible promissory notes with a per share conversion price of $3.08 as of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement into shares of our common stock. In addition to the Initial Note Offering, the Company is requesting your approval of the sale of up to an additional $36,942,939.59 of convertible promissory notes to new investors on substantially the same terms as the Initial Note Offering (such additional sales also to occur in two separate tranches of approximately $12.4 million and $24.6 million, respectively) (such additional sales, together with the Initial Note Offering, the “Private Placement”). The Board and the Audit Committee of the Board approved the Private Placement on July 26, 2013 and a special Independent Committee of the Board approved the Private Placement on August 7, 2013, and in connection with such approvals we have agreed to solicit stockholder approval of the Private Placement in accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 5635(b)-(d). The amount of senior convertible promissory notes to be sold to Total in the Initial Note Offering will be based on its exercise of its pro rata right to purchase such securities, which will be based on its percentage ownership at the time of the sale of the notes. Further, Total and Maxwell may exercise their right to purchase their pro rata share of any additional amount of senior convertible promissory notes sold to new investors. The amount of senior convertible promissory notes that may be sold to new investors as shown throughout this proxy statement assumes that neither Total nor Maxwell exercise their pro rata rights with respect to the sale of additional senior convertible promissory notes to new investors. If the amount of senior convertible promissory notes that Total purchases pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement decreases due to a change in its pro rata percentage, or if Total or Maxwell elects to purchase their pro rata percentage of senior convertible promissory notes to be sold to new investors, the amount of senior convertible promissory notes to be sold to new investors would be adjusted accordingly.

Information Regarding Solicitation and Voting

Our principal executive offices are located at 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, California 94608, and our telephone number is (510) 450-0761.

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on September 12, 2013

The SEC’s “Notice and Access” rule provides that companies must include in their mailed proxy materials instructions as to how stockholders can access the Company’s proxy statement and other soliciting materials online, a listing of matters to be considered at the relevant stockholder meeting, and instructions as to how shares can be voted. Since, based on timing considerations for the 2013 Special Meeting, we are mailing full sets of proxy materials to our stockholders, as permitted by SEC proxy rules, we are including the information required by the Notice and Access rule in this Proxy Statement and in the accompanying Notice of Special Meeting of Stockholders and proxy card, and we are not distributing a separate Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials.

Questions and Answers

Who can vote at the meeting?

The Board set August 16, 2013 as the record date for the meeting. If you owned shares of our common stock as of the close of business on August 16, 2013, you may attend and vote your shares at the meeting. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held on all matters to be voted on. As of August 16, 2013, there were 76,212,429 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

What is the quorum requirement for the meeting?

The holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock as of the record date must be present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting in order for there to be a quorum, which is required to hold the meeting and conduct business. If there is no quorum, the holders of a majority of the shares present at the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another date.

You will be counted as present at the meeting if you are present and entitled to vote in person at the meeting or you have properly submitted a proxy card or voter instruction form, or voted by telephone or over the Internet. Both abstentions and broker non-votes (as described below) are counted for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

As of the record date of August 16, 2013, there were 76,212,429 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote, which means that holders of 38,106,215 shares of our common stock must be present in person or by proxy for there to be a quorum.

What proposals will be voted on at the meeting?

There is one proposal scheduled to be voted on at the meeting:

•

Approval of the issuance of up to $110,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior convertible promissory notes and a warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock in a private placement transaction or series of private placement transactions and the issuance of the common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of such notes and warrant in accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 5635(b)-(d) (“Proposal 1”).

Some of the members of the Board have interests and arrangements that could affect their decision to support or approve the proposal. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement entitled “Proposal 1 — Approval of the Issuance of up to $110,000,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of Senior Convertible Promissory Notes and a Warrant to Purchase 1,000,000 Shares of Our Common Stock in a Private Placement Transaction or Series of Private Placement Transactions and the Issuance of the Common Stock Issuable upon Conversion or Exercise of Such Notes and Warrant in Accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 5635(b)-(d)— Interests of Certain Persons in the Private Placement.”

How does the Board recommend I vote on the proposal?

The Board recommends that you vote:

•

FOR approval of Proposal 1.

How do I vote my shares in person at the meeting?

If your shares of Amyris common stock are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, you are considered, with respect to those shares, to be the stockholder of record. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to vote in person at the meeting.

If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another intermediary, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name. As the beneficial owner, you are also invited to attend the meeting. However, since a beneficial owner is not the stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the Intermediary that is the record holder of the shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the meeting. The meeting will be held on Thursday, September 12, 2013 at 3:30 p.m. Pacific Time at our headquarters located at 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, California. You can find directions to our headquarters on our company website at http://www.amyris.com/en/about-amyris/contact.

How can I vote my shares without attending the meeting?

Whether you hold shares directly as a registered stockholder of record or beneficially in street name, you may vote without attending the meeting. You may vote by granting a proxy or, for shares held beneficially in street name, by submitting voting instructions to your broker, bank or other trustee or nominee. In most cases, you will be able to do this by using the Internet, by telephone or by mail.

‚

Voting by Internet or telephone. You may submit your proxy over the Internet or by telephone by following the instructions for Internet or telephone voting provided with your proxy materials and on your proxy card or voter instruction form.

‚

Voting by mail. You may submit your proxy by mail by completing, signing, dating and returning your proxy card or, for shares held beneficially in street name, by following the voting instructions included by your broker or other Intermediary. If you provide specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted as you have instructed.

What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?

If you are a stockholder of record and you either indicate when voting on the Internet or by telephone that you wish to vote as recommended by the Board, or you sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions, then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by the Board with respect to Proposal 1 and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, under stock market rules, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote at its discretion only on routine matters and cannot vote on non-routine matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the organization will inform the inspector of election that it does not have the authority to vote on this matter with respect to your shares. This is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.” In tabulating the voting results for any particular proposal, shares that constitute broker non-votes are not considered entitled to vote on that proposal. Thus, broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of Proposal 1, assuming a quorum is obtained.

Is the proposal considered “routine” or considered “non-routine”?

The approval of Proposal 1 is considered non-routine under applicable rules. A broker or other nominee cannot vote without instructions on non-routine matters, and therefore we expect there to be broker non-votes on Proposal 1.

What if I am party to a voting agreement related to Proposal 1?

Under the terms of the voting agreement entered into between Amyris, Maxwell, Total, Biolding Investment SA, KPCB Holdings, Inc., Naxyris S.A., Sualk Capital LTD and TPG Biotechnology Partners II, LP, each stockholder who is a party to such agreement has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in such voting agreement, to vote the shares of our common stock subject to the voting agreement for the approval of Proposal 1. As of August 1, 2013, the parties to the voting agreement beneficially owned and were entitled to vote approximately 45.0 million shares of our common stock, or approximately 60% of the shares of common stock outstanding as of the record date. Please refer to the section of this proxy statement entitled “Proposal 1 — Approval of The Issuance of up to $110,000,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of Senior Convertible Promissory Notes and a Warrant to Purchase 1,000,000 Shares of Our Common Stock in a Private Placement Transaction or Series of Private Placement Transactions and the Issuance of the Common Stock Issuable upon Conversion or Exercise of Such Notes and Warrant in Accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 5635(b)-(d)—Voting Agreements.”

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the meeting. The inspector of election will separately count “For” and “Against” votes, abstentions and any broker non-votes. Abstentions will be counted toward the vote total for the proposal and will have the same effect as an “Against” vote for this proposal.

What is the vote required to approve Proposal 1?

•

How can I revoke my proxy and change my vote after I return my proxy card?

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the final vote at the meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may do this by signing and submitting a new proxy card with a later date, by using the Internet or voting by telephone (either of which must be completed by 11:59 p.m. Central Time on September 11, 2013 - your latest telephone or Internet proxy is counted), or by attending the meeting and voting in person. Attending the meeting alone will not revoke your proxy unless you specifically request that your proxy be revoked. If you hold shares through a bank or brokerage firm, you must contact that bank or firm directly to revoke any prior voting instructions.

How can I find out the voting results of the meeting?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the meeting. The final voting results will be reported in a current report on Form 8-K, which we expect to file with the SEC within four business days after the meeting. If final voting results are not available within four business days after the meeting, we intend to file a current report on Form 8-K reporting the preliminary voting results within that period, and subsequently file the final voting results in an amendment to the current report on Form 8-K within four business days after the final voting results are known to us.

Proposal 1-

Approval of the Issuance of up to $110,000,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of

Senior Convertible Promissory Notes and a Warrant to Purchase 1,000,000 Shares of Our Common Stock in a Private Placement Transaction or Series of Private Placement Transactions and the Issuance of the Common Stock Issuable Upon Conversion or Exercise of Such Notes and Warrant in Accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 5635(b)-(d).

General

We are asking stockholders to approve the issuance in the Private Placement of up to $110,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior convertible promissory notes, the issuance of a warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock and the issuance of the common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of such notes and warrant in accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 5635(b)-(d). Up to $73,057,060.41 principal amount of the promissory notes will be sold to existing investors, Maxwell and Total, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement in the Initial Note Offering in two tranches of up to $42,616,618.57 principal amount and $30,440,441.84 principal amount, respectively. The closing of the initial tranche is contemplated to occur following stockholder approval of the Private Placement at the Special Meeting. The second tranche is contemplated to occur at the option of the Company at any time up to 24 months after the signing of the Securities Purchase Agreement following the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including stockholder approval of the Private Placement at the Special Meeting.

In addition to the Initial Note Offering, the Company is requesting in Proposal 1 your approval of the sale of up to an additional $36,942,939.59 principal amount of senior convertible promissory notes to new investors on substantially the same terms as the Initial Note Offering as outlined in the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Tranche I Notes (as defined below) and the Tranche II Notes (as defined below) (such additional sales also to occur in two separate tranches of approximately $12.4 million principal amount and $24.6 million principal amount, respectively). The maximum aggregate principal amount of senior convertible promissory notes issuable in each of the first tranche and the second tranche is $55,000,000 principal amount.

The conversion price of the Tranche I Notes will initially be $2.44, and will be subject to certain price adjustments, including but not limited to, adjustments (i) in connection with any future securities issuance by the Company at a price less than the then effective conversion price for such notes, (ii) in connection with failure by the Company to achieve certain milestones agreed upon in connection with the execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement (as further described below), (iii) if the Company reduces the conversion price of certain existing promissory notes held by Total (other than pursuant to the terms of such notes) and (iv) in the event that Total exchanges existing convertible notes for new securities of the Company in connection with future financing transactions in excess of its pro rata amount (calculated pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement). When, and if, the second tranche of the promissory notes are issued, the conversion price of the Tranche II Notes will initially be $2.87, and will be subject to certain price adjustments, including adjustment (i) in connection with any future securities issuance by the Company at a price less than the then effective conversion price for such notes and (ii) in the event that Total exchanges existing convertible notes for new securities of the Company in connection with future financing transactions in excess of its pro rata amount (calculated pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement). The warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at a per share exercise price of $0.01 will be issued in the Initial Note Offering to Maxwell and will only be exercisable in the event that Total converts certain outstanding convertible promissory notes that have a conversion price as of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement of $3.08 into shares of the Company’s common stock. The issuance of the warrant to Maxwell is a condition to its obligation to purchase senior convertible promissory notes in the Initial Note Offering.

In connection with the Initial Note Offering, the Company also agreed to grant a senior security interest in the Company’s intellectual property to Maxwell in connection with their participation in the Initial Note Offering, subject to certain conditions outlined below.

Vote Required and Board Recommendation for Proposal 1

The proposal must receive a “For” vote from the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock casting votes in person or by proxy on Proposal 1 at the Special Meeting. Abstentions will be counted toward the vote total for the proposal and will have the same effect as an “Against” vote for this proposal. Shares represented by executed proxies that do not indicate a vote “For,” “Against” or “Abstain” will be voted by the proxy holders “For” the adoption of the resolution. If you own shares through a bank, broker or other holder of record, you must instruct your bank, broker or other holder of record how to vote in order for them to vote your shares so that your vote can be counted on this proposal.

The Board recommends a vote “FOR” this Proposal 1.

The Board unanimously determined that Proposal 1 is advisable and in the best interest of our stockholders and recommended that our stockholders vote in favor of Proposal 1.

In reaching its determination to approve Proposal 1, the Board, with advice from our management and legal advisors, considered a number of factors, including:

the fact that the proceeds from the Private Placement will enable us to advance our strategic direction;

our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and liquidity, including our outstanding debt obligations, which required us to raise additional capital for ongoing cash needs;

our view that the proceeds from the Private Placement will enhance our balance sheet;

the fact that our management and certain of our directors have explored financing options with other potential investors and are not aware of an ability for us to obtain the financing needed for our ongoing cash needs on comparable or better terms to the Private Placement, or at all;

the fact that the issuance of the Tranche II Notes (as defined below) will be at our election; and

the fact that our stockholders would have an opportunity to approve the Private Placement.

The Independent Committee also considered the following factors adverse to the Private Placement:

the fact that our stockholders who are not participating in the Private Placement may be diluted and the value of our common stock could be diluted upon conversion of the promissory notes and exercise of the warrant;

the fact that the conversion price for the convertible promissory notes to be issued in the first tranche of the Private Placement will initially be at a discount to the market price on the date the Company entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement;

the fact that the conversion prices of the promissory notes issuable in the Private Placement are subject to adjustment and there is no cap on the maximum number of shares that we could be required to issue upon conversion of the promissory notes (in the case of potential anti-dilution adjustments if the Company sells any shares of common stock or securities exchangeable for or convertible into its common stock, at a price, or with an exercise or conversion price, less than the conversion price of the notes to be issued in the Private Placement);

the fact that the ownership by Maxwell and Total of a substantial percentage of our total voting power may make it more difficult and expensive for a third party to pursue a change of control of our Company;

the fact that convertible promissory notes issuable to Total in the Private Placement will be issued for the conversion of existing debt and, as such, will not be an immediate source of liquidity to us;

the fact that the Private Placement may result in Maxwell sharing a senior security interest in the Company’s intellectual property with Total;

the fact that the Private Placement will involve the issuance of a warrant to Maxwell that, under certain circumstances, would be exercisable for 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at a per share exercise price of $0.01;

the fact that in connection with the Private Placement, the Company may be required to enter into an agreement to reduce the conversion price of certain outstanding convertible promissory notes held by Total, which reduction would result in a related reduction of the conversion price of the convertible notes to be issued in the Private Placement;

the fees and expenses to be incurred by us in connection with the Private Placement; and

the fact that the covenants and restrictions in the Securities Purchase Agreement as described in “Terms of the Private Placement – Summary of the Terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement” below may limit our financing flexibility in the future or our ability to participate in a change of control transaction.

In view of the variety of factors considered in connection with the evaluation of the Private Placement and the complexity of these matters, the Board did not find it practicable to, and did not, quantify or otherwise attempt to assign any relative weight to the various factors considered. In addition, in considering the various factors, individual members of the Board may have assigned different weights to different factors.

After evaluating these factors for and against the Private Placement, and based upon their knowledge of our business, financial condition and prospects, and the view of our management, the Board unanimously concluded that the Private Placement is in our best interest and in the best interests of our stockholders, and recommends that all stockholders vote “FOR” the approval of Proposal 1 at the Special Meeting.

Purpose of Proposal 1—Nasdaq Stockholder Approval Requirement

Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) and trades under the ticker symbol AMRS. The rules governing companies with securities listed on Nasdaq require stockholder approval in connection with a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale or issuance by the issuer of common stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for common stock) equal to 20% or more of the common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance for a price that is less than the greater of book or market value of the stock on the date the Company enters into a binding agreement for the issuance of such securities. This requirement is set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(d). Based on a market price on August 7, 2013 of $2.82 per share and the sale of the full $110,000,000 aggregate principal amount of notes issuable in the Private Placement (including notes that may be sold to new investors under terms substantially similar to the terms of the Initial Note Offering), the issuance of the promissory notes would involve the issuance of securities convertible into more than 20% of our common stock at a discount to the market value of our common stock on the date of execution of the binding agreement to issue such securities. Further, the 1,000,000 shares of our common stock issuable to Maxwell upon exercise of the warrant to be issued in connection with the Initial Note Offering would also be counted against the 20% limit.

As detailed in “Terms of the Private Placement” below, the first tranche of promissory notes to be sold in the Private Placement will be issued with a conversion price equal to $2.44, which conversion price is below the greater of book value or market value of the stock at the time the Company entered into a binding agreement to issue such notes and which conversion price will be subject to certain downward adjustments. The notes to be issued in the second tranche of the Private Placement will be issued with a conversion price equal to $2.87, which conversion price will be subject to downward conversion price adjustments. Finally, the warrant to be issued to Maxwell in the Private Placement will, subject to certain contingencies, be exercisable at a per share exercise price of $0.01.

Because the Private Placement involves the potential issuance by us of securities convertible into shares of common stock that would represent more than 20% of our currently outstanding common stock at a price below the greater of book or market value of the common stock at the time the Company entered into a binding agreement to issue such securities, stockholder approval is required for the issuance of the senior convertible promissory notes being issued in the Private Placement, the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon full conversion of such notes, the issuance of the warrant to be issued to Maxwell in the Private Placement and the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrant.

Nasdaq additionally requires stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities when the issuance or potential issuance of securities will result in a change of control of the Company. This requirement is set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(b). Nasdaq defines a change of control as occurring when, as a result of an issuance, an investor or a group would own, or have the right to acquire 20% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock or voting power of a company, and such ownership or voting power would be the largest ownership position. Under certain circumstances, Proposal 1 could result in Maxwell being the largest owner of common stock of the Company in an amount greater than 20%.

Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(c) requires stockholder approval of security issuances at below fair market value made to officers, directors, employees or consultants, or affiliated entities of any such persons. Proposal 1 will result in purchase of securities convertible into shares of common stock by an entity affiliated with Philippe Boisseau below the fair market value of our common stock at the time the Company entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement (as outlined above).

By approving Proposal 1, you are approving the proposal for purposes of the requirements under Nasdaq Marketplace Rules 5635(b), (c) and (d), which will result in the purchase of securities convertible into shares of our common stock.

Terms of the Private Placement

We have entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with Maxwell and Total (the “Investors”) under which (i) Maxwell has agreed to purchase $35,000,000 principal amount of senior convertible promissory notes in the first tranche and up to, at our election, $25,000,000 principal amount of senior convertible promissory notes in the second tranche and (ii) Total has agreed to purchase the lesser of $7,616,618.57 principal amount and its actual pro rata share of the senior convertible promissory notes sold pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement in the first tranche and up to the lesser of $5,440,441.84 principal amount and its actual pro rata share of the senior convertible promissory notes sold pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement in the second tranche. The Company is also seeking your approval in Proposal 1 to sell up to an additional $36,942,939.59 principal amount of senior convertible promissory notes to new investors under terms substantially similar to the terms of the Initial Note Offering. The Company contemplates selling such new notes in two tranches paralleling the tranches of the Initial Note Offering such that the Company would issue an additional $12,383,381.43 principal amount of convertible notes in substantially the form of the Tranche I Notes and an additional $24,559,558.16 principal amount of convertible notes in substantially the form of the Tranche II Notes.

In addition, the Private Placement will involve the issuance to Maxwell of a warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share exercise price of $0.01. Such warrant will only be exercisable if Total converts certain existing promissory notes with a per share conversion price of $3.08 as of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement into shares of the Company’s common stock. The issuance of the warrant to Maxwell is a condition to its obligation to purchase senior convertible promissory notes in the Initial Note Offering.

We are requesting in this Proposal 1 that our stockholders approve the issuance of up to $110,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior convertible promissory notes and a warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock in a private placement transaction or series of private placement transactions and the issuance of the common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of such notes and warrants in accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rules 5635(b)-(d). The issuance and sale of the convertible promissory notes and the warrant in the Private Placement are intended to be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to the Regulation D “safe harbor” provisions of the Securities Act. Set forth below are the material terms of the Private Placement.

THIS SUMMARY OF THE TERMS OF THE Private Placement IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE YOU WITH BASIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE Private Placement; HOWEVER, IT IS NOT INTENDED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR REVIEWING THE FORM OF SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT, THE FORM OF TRANCHE I SENIOR CONVERTIBLE NOTE AND THE FORM OF TRANCHE II SENIOR CONVERTIBLE NOTE IN THEIR ENTIRETY, WHICH WE HAVE INCLUDED AS ANNEXES A, B AND C, RESPECTIVELY, TO THIS PROXY STATEMENT. THE COMPANY HAS ALSO ATTACHED CERTAIN FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE COMPANY AS ANNEX D TO THIS PROXY STATEMENT. YOU SHOULD READ THIS SUMMARY TOGETHER WITH THESE DOCUMENTS.

Summary of the Terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement

We and the Investors have entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement and any additional investors who participate will be required to enter into a securities purchase agreement on substantially similar terms. The Securities Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties by us and the Investors to each other and is not intended to provide any other factual information about us.

Representations and Warranties. We provided representations and warranties that we believe are customary for transactions of this nature for similar businesses. In addition, each Investor made representations and warranties to us that we believe are customary for transactions of this nature. The representations and warranties in the Securities Purchase Agreement were made only for the purposes of the Securities Purchase Agreement and solely for the benefit of the parties to the Securities Purchase Agreement as of specific dates. The assertions embodied in the representations and warranties are subject to qualifications and limitations agreed to by the respective parties in connection with negotiating the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement. In addition, certain representations and warranties were made as of a specific date, may be subject to a contractual standards of materiality different from what might be viewed as material to stockholders, or may have been used for purposes of allocating risk between the respective parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Securities Purchase Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about us and you should read the Securities Purchase Agreement together with the other information concerning us that we publicly file in reports and statements with the SEC.

Covenants. We made certain covenants to the Investors that we believe are customary for transactions of this nature for similar businesses, including (a) limitations on the Company’s ability to incur additional debt, (b) restrictions on the Company’s ability to engage in certain change of control transactions without the consent of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding principal of all outstanding Tranche I Notes and Tranche II Notes then held by the Investors, (c) restrictions on the Company’s ability to purchase assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions in excess of $20,000,000 without the consent of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding principal of all outstanding Tranche I Notes and Tranche II Notes then held by the Investors, and (d) the provision of certain information rights to the Investors.

Preemptive Rights. The Securities Purchase Agreement grants a right of first investment to holders of the Notes with respect to future securities issuances by the Company while such Notes are outstanding.

Conditions to the Initial Closing. The obligation of the Investors to purchase the promissory notes on the date of the initial closing of the Private Placement (the “Initial Closing”), which closing is expected to occur shortly after stockholder approval of the Private Placement and which closing will involve the sale and issuance of the Tranche I Notes, is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified conditions, including, but not limited to, the following:

our stockholders shall have approved the Private Placement;

the representations and warranties made by us in the Securities Purchase Agreement shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Initial Closing;

unless Total shall have previously released all security interests it holds with respect to the Company’s intellectual property, Total, Maxwell and the Company shall have reached an agreement whereby Maxwell shall be given a shared security interest with Total in the Company’s intellectual property;

the Company shall have issued a warrant to Maxwell to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, exercisable only if Total converts certain existing promissory notes with a per share conversion price of $3.08 as of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement into shares of the Company’s common stock; and

the Company and the Investors shall have obtained all necessary third-party consents and approvals, including any approval required by the relevant competition authorities.

Conditions to Sale of Tranche II Notes. The obligation of the Investors to purchase any of the Tranche II Notes, which the Company may require for up to 24 months from the signing date, in addition to the conditions to the Initial Closing outlined above, will be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified conditions, including, but not limited to, the following:

a specified Company manufacturing plant shall have previously achieved total production of 750,000 liters within a run period of 45 days;

the current chief executive officer of the Company or an individual approved by holders of at least a majority of the outstanding principal of all outstanding Tranche I Notes and Tranche II Notes, if any, then held by Investors shall remain chief executive officer of the Company;

there shall be no material adverse change in the Company’s business from the signing of the Securities Purchase Agreement; and

any security interests held by the Investors in the Company’s intellectual property shall have been released in full.

Description of Senior Convertible Promissory Notes to be Issued

Tranche I Notes

The first tranche of senior convertible promissory notes to be issued in the Private Placement under the Securities Purchase Agreement and such substantially similar notes as shall be issued to new investors in the Private Placement (the “Tranche I Notes”) shall be issued for up to $55,000,000 aggregate principal amount. Maxwell is committed to purchase $35,000,000 principal amount of Tranche I Notes pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. Total is committed to purchase the lesser of $7,616,618.57 principal amount and its actual pro rata share of the Tranche I Notes sold pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, all of which will be issued upon the conversion of outstanding convertible promissory notes of the Company held by Total. Total and Maxwell may also elect to purchase their pro rata share of any of the additional $12,383,381.43 principal amount of Tranche I Notes which may be sold to new investors.

Interest and Payment. The Tranche I Notes shall bear interest at 5.00% per six-month period (subject to adjustment as provided in the Tranche I Notes), compounded semi-annually, and payable beginning on the thirty (30) month anniversary of the issue date, and thereafter, every six months. Should the Company default on a Tranche I Note, the interest rate on such note would increase to 6.5% per six-month period until such default is cured. Should the Company fail to maintain NASDAQ listing status, the interest rate on such note would increase to 8% after the first 180 days of such failure. Interest for the first 30 months will be payable in kind (“PIK”) and added to principal every six months, and thereafter, at the option of the Company, may be payable in cash.

Conversion. The Tranche I Notes will be convertible into common stock of the Company at the option of the holder thereof, at any time following the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Securities Purchase Agreement or earlier in connection with an event of default or change in control.

Conversion Price. The Tranche I Notes will be convertible into common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to $2.44, and will be subject to certain price adjustments set forth in the Tranche I Notes. The conversion price of the Tranche I Notes will be reduced to $2.15 if either (a) a specified Company manufacturing plant fails to achieve a total production of 1,000,000 liters within a run period of 45 days prior to June 30, 2014, or the Company fails to achieve gross margins from product sales for a fiscal quarter of at least 5% prior to June 30, 2014 or (b) the Company reduces the conversion price of certain existing promissory notes held by Total prior to the repayment or conversion of the Tranche I Notes, and to $1.87 if both of the conditions described in clauses (a) and (b) occur. In addition, if the Company sells any shares of its common stock, or securities exercisable for or convertible into its common stock, at a price, or with an exercise or conversion price, less than the conversion price of the Tranche I Notes, the conversion price of the Tranche I Notes will be reduced to the price or exercise or conversion price of such subsequently issued securities. No maximum number has been provided for the amount of shares that could be issuable on conversion of the Tranche I Notes as a result of the adjustment of the conversion price (in the case of potential anti-dilution adjustments if the Company sells any shares of common stock or securities exchangeable for or convertible into its common stock, at a price, or with an exercise or conversion price, less than the conversion price of the Tranche I Notes).

Maturity. The Tranche I Notes will mature and become payable in full sixty (60) months from the date of the first issuance of such notes, unless converted into our common stock or redeemed by the Company prior to such time.

Redemption. The Tranche I Notes will be redeemable at the Company’s option by prepayment of the principal plus all accrued interest of such notes thirty (30) months after the issuance of such notes and on every six-month anniversary thereafter and will be mandatorily redeemable on the maturity date; provided further that the holder of such notes may demand redemption in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal plus all accrued interest thereunder in connection with a change of control of the Company.

Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company prior to the maturity date of the Tranche I Notes, each holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Tranche I Notes at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the face value of the Tranche I Notes.

Tranche II Notes

The second tranche of senior convertible promissory notes to be issued in the Private Placement and such substantially similar notes as shall be issued to new investors in the Private Placement (the “Tranche II Notes” and, with the Tranche I Notes, the “Notes”) shall be issued for up to $55,000,000 aggregate principal amount. Maxwell is committed to purchase up to $25,000,000 principal amount of Tranche II Notes at the election of the Company and pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. Total is committed to purchase the lesser of up to $5,440,441.84 principal amount and its actual pro rata share of the Tranche II Notes sold pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement at the election of the Company, all of which could be issued upon the conversion of outstanding convertible promissory notes of the Company held by Total. An additional $36,942,939.59 principal amount of Tranche II Notes may be sold to new investors. Total and Maxwell may elect to purchase their pro rata share of such additional Tranche II Notes.

Our Ability to Issue the Tranche II Notes. The Company has the ability to cause the Investors to purchase the Tranche II Notes any time within 24 months of execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement if the Company meets certain conditions within such time period, including that: (a) a specified Company manufacturing plant has achieved total production of 750,000 liters within a run period of 45 days, (b) the current chief executive officer or an individual approved by the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding principal of all outstanding Tranche I Notes and Tranche II Notes, if any, held by the Investors remains chief executive officer of the Company, (c) there is no material adverse change in the Company’s business and (d) all security interests in the Company’s intellectual property held by the Investors shall have been released in full. The Investors do not have an option to require the Company to sell the Tranche II Notes other than upon the Company’s election to do so. Any new investors will, similarly, be obligated to purchase Tranche II Notes upon the Company’s election.

Interest and Payment. The Tranche II Notes shall bear interest at 10% per annum (subject to adjustment as provided in the Tranche II Notes), compounded annually; provided, however, that should the Company default on a Tranche II Note, the interest rate on such note would increase to 12% per annum until such default is cured and should the Company fail to maintain NASDAQ listing status the interest rate on such note would increase to 13% applicable to the first 180 days and 16% applicable thereafter. Interest for the first 36 months shall be payable in kind and added to principal every year following the issue date, and thereafter the Company may continue to pay interest in kind by adding to principal on every year anniversary of the issue date or may elect to pay interest in cash.

Conversion. Unless an Event of Default (as defined in the Tranche II Notes) occurs, each Tranche II Note will be convertible into Common Stock at the option of the holder thereof, at any time following the twelve (12) month anniversary of the applicable drawdown or earlier in connection with an event of default or change in control.

Conversion Price. When issued, the Tranche II Notes will be convertible into common stock at a conversion price equal to $2.87 and will be subject to adjustment as set forth in the Tranche II Notes.

Per the price adjustment provisions of the Tranche II Notes, if the Company sells any shares of our common stock, or securities exercisable for or convertible into our common stock, at a price, or with an exercise or conversion price, less than the conversion price of the Tranche II Notes, the conversion price of the Tranche II Notes will be reduced to the price or exercise or conversion price of such subsequently issued securities. No maximum number has been provided for the amount of shares that could be issuable on conversion of the Tranche II Notes as a result of the adjustment of the conversion price (in the case of potential anti-dilution adjustments if the Company sells any shares of common stock or securities exchangeable for or convertible into its common stock, at a price, or with an exercise or conversion price, less than the conversion price of the Tranche II Notes). The Tranche II Notes also provide for downward adjustments for Tranche II Notes held by investors other than Total in the event that Total exchanges existing convertible notes for new securities of the Company in connection with future financing transactions in excess of its pro rata amount.

Maturity. The Tranche II Notes will mature and become payable in full sixty (60) months from the date of the first issuance of such notes, unless converted into our common stock prior to such time.

Redemption. The Tranche II Notes will be mandatorily redeemable by the Company in cash on the maturity date; provided, however, that the holder of such notes may demand redemption in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal plus all accrued interest thereunder in connection with a change of control of the Company.

Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company prior to the maturity date of the Tranche II Notes, each holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of the Tranche II Notes at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the face value of the Tranche II Notes.

Seniority. The Notes, collectively, will be senior indebtedness of the Company.

Description of Warrant to be Issued

The warrant to be issued to Maxwell in the Private Placement (the “Warrant”) will be issued for the purchase of up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share exercise price of $0.01, provided, however, that such Warrant will only be exercisable in the event that Total converts any of its currently outstanding convertible promissory notes that have a conversion price as of the date of Securities Purchase Agreement of $3.08, as such price may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of such notes, into shares of the Company’s common stock. The Warrant will be issued in a form that is mutually agreeable to the Company and Maxwell. The issuance of the Warrant to Maxwell is a condition to its obligation to purchase senior convertible promissory notes in the Initial Note Offering.

Voting Agreements

Use of Proceeds

We currently intend to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of indebtedness. Stockholders should understand that we have wide discretion over the use of proceeds.

Potential Adverse Effects of Proposed Amendment—Dilution and Impact of the Private Placement on Existing Stockholders

The Private Placement could have a dilutive effect on current stockholders who are not participating in the Private Placement in that the percentage ownership of the Company held by such current stockholders will decline as a result of the issuance of the common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Notes and the Warrant. This means also that our current stockholders who are not participating in the Private Placement will own a smaller interest in us as a result of the Private Placement and therefore have less ability to influence significant corporate decisions requiring stockholder approval. Issuance of the common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Notes and the Warrant could also have a dilutive effect on book value per share and any future earnings per share. Dilution of equity interests could also cause prevailing market prices for our common stock to decline.

Because of the conversion price adjustments contained in the Notes and the uncertainty about the aggregate value, if any, of the Notes that will be issued to new investors, the exact magnitude of the dilutive effect of the Notes cannot be conclusively determined. However, the dilutive effect may be material to current stockholders of the Company. By way of example, assuming the sale and issuance of the full $55,000,000 principal amount of Tranche I Notes and assuming the conversion price of such notes will remain unchanged from the initial conversion price of $2.44, then approximately 22.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock will be issuable upon conversion of the Tranche I Notes. Assuming sale and issuance of the full $55,000,000 principal amount of Tranche II Notes (or substantially similar notes issued to new investors) and assuming the conversion price of such notes will remain unchanged from the initial conversion price of $2.87, then approximately 19.2 million shares of the Company’s common stock will be issuable upon conversion of the Tranche II Notes. Note however that the Private Placement documents do not provide for a floor on the downwards adjustments to the conversion price of the Notes (in the case of potential anti-dilution adjustments if the Company sells any shares of common stock or securities exchangeable for or convertible into its common stock, at a price, or with an exercise or conversion price, less than the conversion price of the Notes). As a result, the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes could be significantly larger than these examples.

In addition to dilution, the existence of additional convertible debt could, under certain circumstances, discourage or make more difficult the Company’s efforts to obtain additional financing. And the covenant in the Securities Purchase Agreement imposing restrictions on the Company’s ability to engage in a change of control transaction may limit the Company’s ability to participate in a change of control transaction.

As a condition to the Initial Closing of the Tranche I Notes, unless Total shall have previously released all security interests it holds with respect to the Company’s intellectual property, the Company, Total and Maxwell must reach an agreement whereby Maxwell shall be given a shared security interest with Total in the Company’s intellectual property. Such agreement will result in an additional party having a secured interest in the Company’s intellectual property and will likely increase the value of the secured interest in the Company’s intellectual property, which could limit the Company’s ability to pursue certain strategic transactions.

Risks to Stockholders of Non-Approval

If the stockholders do not approve this proposal, one of the conditions to closing the Private Placement will not be achieved and the Company will have to renegotiate financing terms or look for alternative capital investments. Such investments may not be available on favorable terms or at all. Failure to raise additional capital investment would have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.

Interests of Certain Persons in the Private Placement

When you consider the Board’s recommendation to vote in favor of Proposal 1, you should be aware that our directors and executive officers and existing stockholders may have interests in the Private Placement that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of other of our stockholders. In particular, our director Philippe Boisseau is affiliated with Total and Maxwell is our second largest stockholder and pursuant to its contractual rights with us has appointed Nam Hai Chua to our Board to serve as a director (the “Affiliated Investors”). Mr. Boisseau is an affiliate of Total and Dr. Chua is the Board designee of Maxwell. The beneficial ownership of such Affiliated Investors as of August 1, 2013, shortly before the signing of the Securities Purchase Agreement is outlined below in the Section titled Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management. Maxwell may purchase up to $60,000,000 principal amount of Notes in the Private Placement (plus such additional amount, if any, as Maxwell elects to purchase pursuant to its pro rata rights with respect to Notes sold to new investors) and Total may purchase up to $13,057,060.41 principal amount of Notes in the Private Placement (or such lesser amount as determined based upon Total’s pro-rata share of each tranche of Notes pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement plus such additional amount, if any, as Total elects to purchase pursuant to its pro rata rights with respect to Notes sold to new investors).

Because of the conversion price adjustments contained in the Notes, the exact number of shares issuable to the Affiliated Investors on conversion of the Notes cannot be conclusively determined. The interests to be acquired by such Affiliated Investors may be of material interest to stockholders of the Company in considering Proposal 1. By way of example, assuming Maxwell purchases its full commitment of $60,000,000 principal amount of Notes and assuming the conversion prices of such notes remain unchanged from the initial conversion price of $2.44 in the case of Tranche I Notes and $2.87 in the case of Tranche II Notes, then approximately 23.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock will be issuable upon conversion of the Notes purchased by Maxwell and 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock will be issuable upon exercise of the Warrant to be issued to Maxwell in the Private Placement, in the event the trigger event for the exercisability of the warrant occurs. Assuming Total purchases its full maximum commitment of $13,057,060.41 principal amount of Notes (without giving effect to any portion of the Notes sold to new investors that Total may elect to purchase pursuant to its pro rata rights) and assuming the conversion prices of such notes remain unchanged from the initial conversion price of $2.44 in the case of Tranche I Notes and $2.87 in the case of Tranche II Notes, then approximately 5.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock will be issuable upon conversion of the Notes purchased by Total. As a result, Total and Maxwell could significantly increase their ownership interests in the Company upon conversion or exercise of the Notes and Warrant to be issued in the Private Placement such that, based on the Company’s capitalization as of August 16, 2013 and assuming such conversion or exercise by Total and Maxwell of the Notes and Warrant to be issued in the Private Placement, Maxwell would hold approximately 33% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and Total would hold approximately 18% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Accordingly, assuming the conversion prices of the Tranche I Notes and Tranche II Notes remain unchanged from the respective initial conversion prices of such notes and based on the capitalization of the Company as of August 16, 2013, neither Maxwell, Total nor any other investor who participates in the Private Placement will, by virtue of the transactions contemplated thereby, acquire rights to a majority of the voting power of the Company.

The Private Placement was separately approved by the Independent Committee and the Audit Committee of the Board, and neither Mr. Boisseau nor Dr. Chua was a member of, nor participated in, any meetings of the Independent Committee or the Audit Committee.

Each of Maxwell, Total, Biolding Investment SA, KPCB Holdings, Inc., Naxyris S.A., Sualk Capital LTD and TPG Biotechnology Partners II, LP, entered into a voting agreement with Amyris in connection with the Private Placement. Under this voting agreement, each such stockholder agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to vote the shares of our common stock subject to the voting agreement for the approval of the Private Placement.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock, as of August 1, 2013, by:

each person, or group of affiliated persons, who is known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our voting securities;

each of our directors;

each of our named executive officers; and

all of our directors and executive officers as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes any shares over which the individual or entity has sole or shared voting power or investment power. These rules also treat as outstanding all shares of capital stock that a person would receive upon exercise of stock options held by that person that are immediately exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date on which beneficial ownership is determined. These shares are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding those options for the purpose of computing the number of shares beneficially owned and the percentage ownership of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The information does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Except as indicated in the footnotes to this table and pursuant to applicable community property laws, to our knowledge the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock attributed to them in the table.

Information with respect to beneficial ownership has been furnished to us by each director and executive officer and certain stockholders, and derived from publicly-available SEC beneficial ownership reports on Forms 3 and 4 and Schedules 13G filed by covered beneficial owners of our common stock. Percentage ownership of our common stock in the table is based on 76,191,229 shares of our common stock outstanding on August 1, 2013. In accordance with SEC regulations, we also include shares subject to options that are currently exercisable or will become exercisable within 60 days of August 1, 2013. Those shares are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding such option for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but they are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as otherwise set forth below, the address of the beneficial owner is c/o Amyris, Inc., 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, California 94608.

The number and percent of shares owned by Maxwell, Total and their designees does not include any shares issuable on conversion or exercise of any of the Notes or the Warrant that will be issued if Proposal 1 is approved.

Includes 3,536,968 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of convertible promissory notes that are convertible within 60 days of August 1, 2013. The following information is based solely on a Schedule 13G/A filed by FMR LLC on February 14, 2013: Fidelity Management & Research Company (“Fidelity”) was the beneficial owner of 7,335,368 shares of our common stock as a result of acting as investment adviser to various investment companies registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The number of shares of our common stock owned by the investment companies at August 1, 2013 included 3,439,207 shares of Common Stock resulting from the assumed conversion of $24,309,000 principal amount of outstanding convertible promissory notes. Edward C. Johnson 3d and FMR LLC, through its control of Fidelity, and the funds each had sole power to dispose of the 7,335,368 shares owned by the funds. Members of the family of Edward C. Johnson 3d, Chairman of FMR LLC, are the predominant owners, directly or through trusts, of Series B voting common shares of FMR LLC, representing 49% of the voting power of FMR LLC. The Johnson family group and all other Series B shareholders have entered into a shareholders’ voting agreement under which all Series B voting common shares will be voted in accordance with the majority vote of Series B voting common shares. Accordingly, through their ownership of voting common shares and the execution of the shareholders’ voting agreement, members of the Johnson family may be deemed, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, to form a controlling group with respect to FMR LLC.

We will provide to any stockholder entitled to vote at our 2013 Special Meeting of Stockholders, at no charge, a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2012 filed with the SEC on March 28, 2013, including the financial statements and the financial statement schedules contained in the Form 10-K and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2013. We make our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as well as our other SEC filings, available free of charge through the investor relations section of our website located at http://investors.amyris.com/index.cfm as soon as reasonably practicable after they are filed with or furnished to the SEC. Information contained on or accessible through our website or contained on other websites is not deemed to be part of Proxy Statement. In addition, you may request a copy of the Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in writing by sending an e-mail request to Amyris Investor Relations, attention Joel Velasco, at investor@amyris.com, calling (510) 740-7481, or writing to Amyris Investor Relations at 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, California 94608. Please note that we do not expect representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to be present or available to respond to questions at the special meeting.

Householding of Proxy Materials

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports, including Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other proxy materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

A number of brokers with account holders who are Amyris stockholders may be “householding” our proxy materials. A single copy of the Notice or other proxy materials may be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or you submit contrary instructions. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate Notice or other proxy materials, you may: (1) notify your broker; (2) direct your written request to Amyris Investor Relations at 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, California 94608 or to investor@amyris.com; or (3) contact Amyris Investor Relations at (510) 740-7481. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notice or other proxy materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers. In addition, we will promptly deliver, upon written or oral request to the address or telephone number above, a separate copy of the Notice to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered.

Stockholder Proposals to be Presented at Next Annual Meeting

Stockholder proposals may be included in our proxy statement for an annual meeting so long as they are provided to us on a timely basis and satisfy the other conditions set forth in SEC regulations under Rule 14a-8 regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. For a stockholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for the annual meeting to be held in 2014, we must receive the proposal at our principal executive offices, addressed to the Secretary, no later than December 10, 2013. In addition, a stockholder proposal that is not intended for inclusion in our proxy statement under Rule 14a-8 may be brought before the 2014 annual meeting so long as we receive information and notice of the proposal in compliance with the requirements set forth in our Bylaws, addressed to the Secretary at our principal executive offices, not later than February 23, 2014 nor earlier than January 24, 2014.

Other Matters

The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Special Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

The Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 8.3 may be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 8.3 with respect to any Purchaser, the Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

8.4. Use of Proceeds. The Company agrees to use the proceeds of the offering for bona fide general corporate purposes and to provide working capital.

8.5. Subsequent Securities Sales. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any trading market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

8.6. Listing; SEC Compliance.

(a) Listing. The Company shall promptly take any action required to maintain the listing of all of the Underlying Securities, once they have been issued, upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of the Underlying Securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Securities. The Company shall not take any action which would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on The NASDAQ Stock Market.

(b) SEC Filings. The Company shall take all actions within its control to comply with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and each applicable national securities exchange and automated quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed. The Purchasers’ sole remedy for breach of this Section 8.6(b) will be as set forth in Section 5 of the Securities.

(c) Current Information. The Company shall make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144 for so long as required in order to permit the resale of the Securities or Underlying Securities pursuant to SEC Rule 144.

8.7. Register. The Company shall keep a “register” which shall provide for the recordation of the name and address of, and the amount of outstanding principal and interest owing to, each Purchaser. The entries in the register shall be conclusive evidence of the amounts due and owing to each Purchaser in the absence of manifest error. The Company and each Purchaser shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Purchaser for all purposes. The obligations of the Company to each Purchaser under the Securities (the “Obligations”) are registered obligations and the right, title and interest of any Purchaser and its assignees in and to such Obligations shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the register. This Section 8.7 shall be construed so that the Obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or such regulations). The register shall be available for inspection by any Purchaser from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

8.8. Federal Income Tax Reporting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each party hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that for United States federal, state and local income tax purposes, the aggregate “issue price” of the Securities under Section 1273(b) of the Code shall equal the principal amount of any such Securities on the date of issuance. Each party hereto agrees to use the foregoing issue price for all income tax, financial accounting and regulatory purposes with respect to this transaction. Each party hereto further acknowledges and agrees that the Obligations shall be treated as debt for all tax and accounting purposes and no party shall take any position inconsistent therewith.

ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS

9.1. Survival. The representations, warranties and covenants contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the sale of the Securities.

9.2. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of Purchasers. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, trustees, members, managers, employees and agents, and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under this Agreement, and will reimburse any such Person for all such Losses as they are incurred by such Person.

(b) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the Company of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit the Company to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (a) the Company has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (b) the Company shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such Person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such Person and the Company with respect to such claims (in which case, if the Person notifies the Company in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company, the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the Company in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the Company shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. The Company will not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. No indemnified party will, except with the consent of the Company, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement.

9.3. Assignment; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, that this Agreement may be assigned by any Purchaser to the valid transferee of any security purchased hereunder if such security remains a “restricted security” under the Securities Act. This Agreement and all provisions thereof shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and are enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

9.4. Notices. All notices, requests, and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given and received (a) when personally delivered, (b) when sent by facsimile upon confirmation of receipt, (c) one business day after the day on which the same has been delivered prepaid to a nationally recognized courier service, or (d) five business days after the deposit in the United States mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, in each case addressed, as to the Company, to Amyris, Inc., 5885 Hollis Street, Suite 100, Emeryville, CA 94608, Attn: General Counsel, facsimile number: (510) 740-7416, with a copy to Fenwick & West LLP, 801 California Street, Mountain View, CA 94041, Attn: Dan Winnike, Esq., facsimile number: (650) 938-5200, and as to the Purchaser at the address and facsimile number set forth below the Purchaser’s signature on the signature pages of this Agreement.

9.5. Governing Law. This Agreement, and the provisions, rights, obligations, and conditions set forth herein, and the legal relations between the parties hereto, including all disputes and claims, whether arising in contract, tort, or under statute, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to its conflict of law provisions.

9.6. Dispute Resolution.

9.6.1 Escalation. Prior to commencing any arbitration in connection with any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination or validity thereof (“Dispute”), the parties shall first engage in the procedures set forth in this Section 9.6.1. Such Dispute shall first be referred by written notice of the Dispute (the “Dispute Notice”) from any party to its executive officers and to the executive officers of each party that the party sending the Dispute Notice has the Dispute with (the “Executive Officers”) and the Executive Officers shall attempt to resolve such Dispute within ten (10) days after a party sent the Dispute Notice to the Executive Officers by meeting (either in person or by video teleconference, unless otherwise mutually agreed) at a mutually acceptable time, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to exchange relevant information and to attempt to resolve the Dispute. If the Dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) days after the Dispute Notice has been sent by a party to its Executive Officers and to the Executive Officers of the other party or parties, then either the party that has sent the Dispute Notice, or the party or parties that have received the Dispute Notice may, by written notice to the other party or parties, elect to submit the Dispute to arbitration pursuant to Section 9.6.2. If a party’s Executive Officer intends to be accompanied at a meeting by an attorney, the Executive Officers of the other party shall be given at least seventy-two (72) hours’ notice of such intention and may also be accompanied by an attorney. All negotiations conducted pursuant to this Section 9.6.1, and all documents and information exchanged by the parties in furtherance of such negotiations, (i) are the Confidential Information (as defined in Section 9.6.4) of the parties, and (ii) shall be inadmissible in any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 9.6 or other proceeding with respect to a Dispute.

9.6.2 Arbitration.

(a) All Disputes arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, which have not been resolved pursuant to Section 9.6.1, shall be submitted to mandatory, final and binding arbitration before an arbitral tribunal pursuant to the Rules of Arbitration of the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC Rules”), in effect at the time of filing of the request for arbitration, as modified hereby. The International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC Court”) shall administer the arbitration.

(b) There shall be three (3) arbitrators. If there are two parties to the arbitration, then one arbitrator shall be nominated by the initiating claimant party in the request for arbitration, the second nominated by the respondent party within thirty (30) days of receipt of the request for arbitration, and the third (who shall act as chairperson of the arbitral tribunal) nominated by the two (2) party-appointed arbitrators within thirty (30) days of the selection of the second arbitrator. In the event that either party fails to nominate an arbitrator, or if the two party-appointed arbitrators are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, within the time periods specified herein, the ICC Court shall appoint the remaining arbitrator(s) required to comprise the arbitral tribunal. If there are more than two parties to the arbitration, the claimant(s) shall jointly nominate one arbitrator and the respondent(s) shall jointly nominate one arbitrator, within thirty (30) days of receipt by respondent(s) of a copy of the request for arbitration. For avoidance of doubt, where there are two or more claimant(s), none of the claimants has to nominate an arbitrator in their request for arbitration. The third arbitrator (who shall act as chairperson of the arbitral tribunal) shall be nominated by the two (2) party-appointed arbitrators within thirty (30) days of the nomination of the second arbitrator. If either the claimant(s) or the respondent(s) fail to timely nominate an arbitrator, or if the two party-appointed arbitrators are unable or fail to agree upon the third arbitrator, within the time periods specified herein, then on the request of any party, the ICC Court shall appoint the remaining arbitrator(s) required to comprise the arbitral tribunal. The claimant in the arbitration shall provide a copy of the request for arbitration to the respondent at the time such request is submitted to the Secretariat of the International Chamber of Commerce.

(c) Each arbitrator chosen under this Section shall speak, read, and write English fluently and shall be either (i) a practicing lawyer who has specialized in business litigation with at least ten (10) years of experience in a law firm, (ii) an arbitrator experienced with commercial disputes, or (iii) a retired judge.

(d) The place of arbitration shall be Paris, France. The language of the arbitral proceedings and of all submissions and written evidence and any award issued by the arbitral tribunal shall be English. Any party may, at its own expense, provide for translation of any documents submitted in the arbitration or translation or interpretation of any testimony taken at any hearing before the arbitral tribunal. For the avoidance of doubt, no party is under any obligation to provide for translation of any documents submitted in the arbitration or translation or interpretation of any testimony taken at any hearing before the arbitral tribunal.

(e) The award shall be in writing, state the reasons for the award and be final and binding. The arbitral tribunal shall, subject to its discretion, endeavor to issue its award within four (4) months of the end of the hearing, or as soon as possible thereafter. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties that the rulings and award of the arbitral tribunal shall be binding on the parties, their successors and permitted assigns. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitral tribunal may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction.

(f) Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees, and the party that does not prevail in the arbitration proceeding, as determined by the arbitral tribunal, shall pay the arbitrator’s fees and any administrative fees of arbitration. All proceedings and decisions of the tribunal shall be deemed Confidential Information of each of the Parties, and shall be subject to Section 9.6.4.

9.6.3 Interim Relief.

(a) The arbitral tribunal shall have the power to grant any remedy or relief that it deems appropriate, whether provisional or final, including conservatory relief and injunctive relief, and any such measures ordered by the arbitral tribunal may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to be a final award on the subject matter of the measures and shall be enforceable as such.

(b) In addition to the remedies and relief available under Section 9.6.3(a) above and the ICC Rules, and subject to Section 9.6.2 above, each party expressly retains the right at any time to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for interim, injunctive, provisional or conservatory relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate.

(c) For purposes of Section 9.6.3(b), each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents and agrees that any action for interim, provisional and/or conservatory relief brought against it with respect to its obligations or liabilities under or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement may be brought in the courts located in Paris, France or the state or federal courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City, New York, and each party hereby irrevocably accepts and unconditionally submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts in personam, with respect to any such action for interim, provisional or conservatory relief. In any such action, each of the parties irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so, any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens or any right of objection to jurisdiction on account of its place of incorporation or domicile, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in the courts located in Paris, France or in the state or federal courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City, New York.

(d) Each party hereby irrevocably consents and agrees that the service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents which may be served in any action arising under this Agreement may be made by sending a copy thereof by express courier to the party to be served at the address set forth in the notice provision of this Agreement, with such service to be effective upon receipt. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(e) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding brought pursuant to this Section 9.6.

9.6.4 Confidentiality. The Company and each of the Purchasers agree to use, and to use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that its authorized representatives use the same degree of care as such party uses to protect its own confidential information (but in no event less than reasonable care) to keep confidential the information provided to it pursuant to this Agreement, and any other information furnished to it which the disclosing party identifies as being confidential or proprietary (so long as such information is not in the public domain) or, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure, such party knows or has reason to know should be treated as confidential (“Confidential Information”), unless otherwise required by law (provided that a party shall, to the extent permitted by law, promptly notify the other party of any required disclosure and take reasonable steps to minimize the extent of any such required disclosure); provided, however, that Confidential Information shall not include information, that (i) was in the public domain prior to the time it was furnished to such recipient, (ii) is at the time of the alleged breach (through no willful or improper action or inaction by such recipient) generally available to the public, (iii) was rightfully disclosed to such recipient by a third party without restriction or (iv) as of the time of the alleged breach, had been independently developed (as evidenced by written records) without any use of Confidential Information.

9.7. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof is declared to be illegal, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to delete such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision unless that provision held invalid shall substantially impair the benefits of the remaining portions of this Agreement.

9.8. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction, or effect.

9.9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof, including without limitation, solely with respect to Section 7.7 hereof and only for as long as any Tranche I Notes or Tranche II Notes are outstanding, any right of first investment a Purchaser may have pursuant to a previously existing agreement with the Company, including without limitation that certain letter agreement dated as of February 23, 2012 by and among the Company and the stockholders of the Company party thereto and the Master Framework Agreement; provided that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, Total retains the right to pay the Company the applicable Total Purchase Price for the Tranche I and Tranche II Notes by the cancellation of Total Notes (as defined in the Securities), as provided in Section 5.1 of the Master Framework Agreement.

9.10. Finder’s Fee. The Company agrees that it shall be responsible for the payment of any placement agent’s fees, financial advisory fees, or brokers’ commissions (other than for Persons engaged by Purchaser) relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company shall pay, and hold each Purchaser harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any claim for any such fees or commissions.

9.11. Expenses. Each party will bear its own costs and expenses in connection with this Agreement.

9.12. Further Assurances. The parties agree to execute and deliver all such further documents, agreements and instruments and take such other and further action as may be necessary or appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

9.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other party. Facsimile signatures shall be deemed originals for all purposes hereunder.

9.14. Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint with obligations of each other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreements. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or any of its subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Purchaser (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained herein or in any ancillary document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. Each Purchaser acknowledges that no other Purchaser has or will be acting as agent of such Purchaser in enforcing its rights under this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreements. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Purchaser, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

9.15. Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in a written instrument executed by each of the parties. No waiver by any of the parties of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. No waiver by any of the parties of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the party sought to be charged with such waiver. No action taking pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any party, shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the party taking such action of compliance with any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein. No failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

(iii) At any time if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to Section 5(c) hereof, Holder shall have the right to convert the Face Amount of this Note, in whole or in part, at the option of Holder, at any time and from time to time while such Event of Default is continuing, into a number of fully paid, nonassessable and authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock determined by dividing (x) the Face Amount proposed to be converted at such date by (y) the then effective Conversion Price on the Conversion Date (such conversion, an “Optional EOD Conversion”, and together with an Optional 18-Month Conversion and an Optional COC Conversion, “Holder’s Optional Conversion”).

In the event of a Holder’s Optional Conversion, all accrued interest in respect of the Face Amount converted in connection with such Holder’s Optional Conversion shall be cancelled without any obligation of payment by the Company.

Such notice shall state the portion of the Balance of this Note which the Holder seeks to convert and shall be accompanied within one (1) Trading Day by the Note or Notes subject to conversion. The date contained in the notice (which date shall be no earlier than the Trading Day immediately following the date of the notice) shall be the date of conversion of the Note (such date of conversion, the “Conversion Date”) and the Holder shall be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the underlying Common Stock as of such date.

(ii) The Holder of this Note shall be deemed to beneficially own the Common Stock underlying this Note as of the applicable Conversion Date. Not later than three (3) Trading Days following the Conversion Date, the Company shall promptly issue and deliver to each Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder is entitled and, in the case where only part of a Note is converted, the Company shall execute and deliver (at its own expense) a new Note of any authorized denomination as requested by a Holder in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unconverted portion of the Balance of the Note so surrendered. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Notes, provided the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, upon request of the Holder, the Company may, at its election (and shall, if practicable and upon the reasonable request of any Holder after the date six months after the initial issuance of this Note, and if the Holder is not an “affiliate” of the Company (as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note to the Holder, by crediting the account of Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system, if such DWAC system is available for the issuance of such shares of Common Stock under the terms of this Note and the Agreement. The time periods for delivery described above shall apply to the electronic transmittals through the DWAC system. The parties agree to coordinate with DTC to accomplish this objective. The conversions pursuant to this Section 3 shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the opening of business on the applicable Conversion Date. The person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated as the beneficial owner of such shares of Common Stock at the opening of business on the applicable Conversion Date.

(iii) The Company shall at all times during which the Notes shall be outstanding, have and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Notes, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Notes. In no event shall the Conversion Price be reduced to an amount less than the then par value of the Common Stock.

(iv) No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon any conversion of the Notes pursuant to this Section 3. In lieu of fractional shares, the Company shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Conversion Date.

Any Notes, to the extent so converted, shall be retired and canceled.

(vi) If any conversion pursuant to this Section 3 is in connection with an underwritten offering of securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act or a Change of Control, the conversion may, at the option of any Holder tendering Notes for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale of the shares of Common Stock issuable to such Holder in connection with such conversion pursuant to such offering, or the closing of such Change of Control, as applicable, in which event the Holders entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion of the Notes shall not be deemed to have converted such Notes until immediately prior to the closing of the sale of securities or consummation of the Change of Control, as applicable.

(d) Adjustment for Failure to Achieve Tranche I Milestones.

If such per share consideration is not a cash amount, then the value of such per share consideration shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

(g) Adjustment for Issuances to Total. If the Company shall permit Total to exchange Total Notes in connection with any future issuance by the Company of Securities (other than the issuance of Total Notes or shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof pursuant to the Total Purchase Agreement or the issuance of Notes, Tranche II Notes (as defined in the Agreement) or shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof pursuant to the Agreement), whereby the Company shall issue to Total in exchange for such Total Notes a number of Securities in excess of Total’s Pro Rata Share (as defined in the Master Framework Agreement), then the then effective Conversion Price of this Note, any other Note and any Tranche II Note held by Holder as of immediately prior to such exchange (collectively, the “Holder Notes”) shall be adjusted pro rata based on the principal amount of each such Holder Note, such that the Holder Notes then outstanding shall be convertible in aggregate into an additional number of shares of Common Stock equal to the difference between (i) the actual number of Securities issued to Total in exchange for such Total Notes and (ii) Total’s Pro Rata Share of such Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment under this Section 3(g) will apply to any Note or Tranche II Note held by Total.

(h) Adjustment for Share Splits and Combinations.

In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date shall make or issue a dividend or other distribution payable in (x) additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance, by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of such additional shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; (y) in cash, then and in each such event, the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance, by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such dividend and distribution minus the amount in cash per share of Common Stock that the Company dividends or distributes, and the denominator of which shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such dividend and distribution; (z) shares of capital stock of the Company, evidences of indebtedness, or any other asset (collectively, the “Distributed Property”), then and in each such event, the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance, by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such dividend and distribution minus the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property distributed with respect to each share of Common Stock, and the denominator of which shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such dividend and distribution.

(j) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of shares, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares, share dividend or reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or asset sale provided for elsewhere in this Section 3), then and in each such event the Holder of each Note (whether then outstanding or thereafter issued) shall have the right thereafter to convert such Note into the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which all such Notes might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.

(k) Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations or Asset Sales.

In any such case, appropriate adjustment will be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the Holders of Notes after the Capital Reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section 3 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes) and the provisions of the Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement will be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable. In the event that the Company is not the surviving entity of any such Capital Reorganization, each Note shall become Notes of such surviving entity, with the same powers, rights and preferences as provided herein.

(l) No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the Holders of the Notes against impairment to the extent required hereunder.

(m) Certificate as to Adjustments or Distributions. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment of the Conversion Price or distribution to holders pursuant to this Section 3, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or distribution in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder, if any, of Notes outstanding a certificate setting forth the terms of such adjustment or distribution and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or distribution are based and shall file a copy of such certificate with its corporate records.

Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Note, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

(e) Control by Majority. Holders of a majority in aggregate of the then applicable Balance of the then outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available upon an Event of Default.

(f) Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive Payment.

If prior to the repayment or conversion of this Note the Company shall sell, in a bona fide capital raising transaction for cash consideration (including cancellation of pre-existing Debt as payment of consideration), any shares of, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of, any class or series of the Company’s capital stock (the “Securities”) at a per share purchase price (including any applicable conversion or exercise price) equal to an amount less than the effective Conversion Price on the date of such issuance, then such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance of Securities shall be reduced, concurrently with such issuance, to the consideration per share received by the Company for such issue or the deemed issue of the Securities. If such per share consideration is not a cash amount, then the value of such per share consideration shall be the fair market value thereof, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

(e) Adjustment for Issuances to Total. If the Company shall permit Total to exchange Total Notes in connection with any future issuance by the Company of Securities (other than the issuance of Total Notes or shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof pursuant to the Total Purchase Agreement or the issuance of Notes or Tranche I Notes (as defined in the Agreement) or shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof pursuant to the Agreement), whereby the Company shall issue to Total in exchange for such Total Notes a number of Securities in excess of Total’s Pro Rata Share (as defined in the Master Framework Agreement), then the then effective Conversion Price of this Note, any other Note and any Tranche I Note held by Holder as of immediately prior to such exchange (collectively, the “Holder Notes”) shall be adjusted pro rata based on the principal amount of each such Holder Note, such that the Holder Notes then outstanding shall be convertible in aggregate into an additional number of shares of Common Stock equal to the difference between (i) the actual number of Securities issued to Total in exchange for such Total Notes and (ii) Total’s Pro Rata Share of such Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment under this Section 3(e) will apply to any Note or Tranche I Note held by Total.

(f) Adjustment for Share Splits and Combinations. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date effect a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

(g) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date shall make or issue a dividend or other distribution payable in (x) additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance, by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance plus the number of such additional shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; (y) in cash, then and in each such event, the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance, by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such dividend and distribution minus the amount in cash per share of Common Stock that the Company dividends or distributes, and the denominator of which shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such dividend and distribution; (z) shares of capital stock of the Company, evidences of indebtedness, or any other asset (collectively, the “Distributed Property”), then and in each such event, the Conversion Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance, by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such dividend and distribution minus the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property distributed with respect to each share of Common Stock, and the denominator of which shall be the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such dividend and distribution.

(h) Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of shares, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares, share dividend or reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or asset sale provided for elsewhere in this Section 3), then and in each such event the Holder of each Note (whether then outstanding or thereafter issued) shall have the right thereafter to convert such Note into the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which all such Notes might have been converted immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein or with respect to such other securities or property by the terms thereof.

(i) Reorganizations, Mergers, Consolidations or Asset Sales. If at any time after the Issue Date there is a tender offer, exchange offer, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or reorganization involving the shares of Common Stock (collectively, a “Capital Reorganization”) (other than a merger, consolidation, sale of assets, recapitalization, subdivision, combination, reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 3), as part of such Capital Reorganization, provision shall be made so that the Holders of Notes will thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Notes the number of shares or other securities or property of the Company to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion immediately prior to such Capital Reorganization would have been entitled on such Capital Reorganization, subject to adjustment in respect to such shares or securities by the terms thereof. In any such case, appropriate adjustment will be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3 with respect to the rights of the Holders of Notes after the Capital Reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Section 3 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes) and the provisions of the Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement will be applicable after that event and be as nearly equivalent as practicable. In the event that the Company is not the surviving entity of any such Capital Reorganization, each Note shall become Notes of such surviving entity, with the same powers, rights and preferences as provided herein.

(j) No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the Holders of the Notes against impairment to the extent required hereunder.

(k) Certificate as to Adjustments or Distributions. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment of the Conversion Price or distribution to holders pursuant to this Section 3, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or distribution in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each Holder, if any, of Notes outstanding a certificate setting forth the terms of such adjustment or distribution and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or distribution are based and shall file a copy of such certificate with its corporate records.

(l) Notice of Record Date. In the event:

(i) that the Company declares a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, securities, or other assets, rights or properties;

(ii) that the Company subdivides or combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock;

(iv) of any Capital Reorganization; or

(v) of the involuntary or voluntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

(m) Notice of Adjustment to Conversion Price. The Company will provide notice to each Holder upon the occurrence of any adjustment to the Conversion Price.

4. Repurchase Right Upon a Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control prior to the Final Maturity Date, each Holder of Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of its Notes pursuant to an offer as provided in this Section 4 (the “Change of Control Offer”) at an offer price in cash equal to 101% of the Balance of its Notes as of the Change of Control Payment Date (as defined in Section 4(b)(i)) (the “Change of Control Payment”).

(iii) the amount of the Change of Control Payment;

(v) the Conversion Price then in effect and the place where such Notes may be surrendered for conversion.

If any of the foregoing provisions or other provisions of this Section 4 are inconsistent with applicable law, such law shall govern.

(e) The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

5. Events of Default. Definitions. For purposes of this Note, the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default”:

(i) default in payment when due (whether at the Final Maturity Date or upon an earlier repurchase) of the then applicable Balance on this Note;

(v) failure by the Company to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $10,000,000, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of sixty (60) days;

(vi) the Company:

(A) commences a voluntary case under any Bankruptcy Law,

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case under any Bankruptcy Law,

(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or

(E) is unable to pay its debts as they become due; or

(vii) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(A) is for relief against the Company;

(B) appoints a custodian of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company; or

(C) orders the liquidation of the Company; and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for sixty (60) consecutive days; or

(viii) failure by the Company to deliver when due the consideration deliverable upon conversion of this Note, which failure shall continue for a period of five days.

(c) Acceleration. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Holders of at least 50% of the then applicable Balance of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, which Notes shall then be immediately payable in, at the election of each Holder, either cash or shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(a)(iii) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default described in Section 5(vi) or (vii) with respect to the Company, all outstanding notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. The Holders of a majority in aggregate of the then applicable Balance of the then outstanding Notes may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default (except nonpayment of principal that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. Notwithstanding the foregoing (or anything to the contrary in the Agreement), the sole remedy of the Holders for a failure by the Company to comply with Section 8.6 of the Agreement shall, for the first 365 days after the occurrence of such failure, be the right, by notice to the Company by holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, to increase the rate of interest on this Note to the lower of (i) the Highest Lawful Rate, and (ii) 13% for the first 180 days of such failure, and 16% thereafter (which increased interest shall constitute liquidated damages for such failure).

(b) Debt in existence on the Issue Date or which as of the Issue Date the Company is obligated to issue thereafter, including Total Notes pursuant to the Total Purchase Agreement;

(f) Debt which is exchanged for or the proceeds of which are used to refinance or refund, or any extension or renewal of (each a “refinancing”), (1) the Notes or (2) debt incurred pursuant to clause (b) of this paragraph, and (3) Debt incurred pursuant to clause (c) of this paragraph, in each case in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the principal amount of the Debt so refinanced (together with any accrued interest and any premium and other payment required to be made with respect to the Debt being refinanced or refunded, and any fees, costs, expenses, underwriting discounts or commissions and other payments paid or payable with respect to the Debt incurred pursuant to this clause (f)); provided, however, that (A) Debt, the proceeds of which are used to refinance the Notes, or Debt which is pari passu with or subordinate in right of payment to the Notes, shall only be permitted if (x) in the case of any refinancing of the Notes or Debt which is pari passu to the Notes, the refinancing Debt is Incurred by the Company and made pari passu to the Notes or subordinated to the Notes, and (y) in the case of any refinancing of Debt which is subordinated to the Notes, the refinancing Debt is incurred by the Company and is subordinated to the Notes in a manner that is at least as favorable to the Holders as that of the Debt refinanced; (B) refinancing Debt with respect to Debt incurred pursuant to clause (c) of this paragraph shall not be secured by a Lien on any assets other than the assets securing the Debt so refinanced, and any improvements or additions thereto, and (C) the refinancing Debt by its terms, or by the terms of any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such Debt is issued, does not have a final maturity prior to the final maturity of the Debt being refinanced.

As used herein, “Permitted Liens” means the following: (a) Liens for taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies that are not overdue for a period of more than thirty (30) days or which are being contested in good faith; (b) Liens imposed by law, such as materialmen’s, mechanics’, carriers’, workmen’s and repairmen’s Liens and other similar Liens securing obligations that are not overdue for a period of more than thirty (30) days or that are being contested in good faith; (c) pledges or deposits to secure obligations under workers’ compensation laws or similar legislation or to secure public or statutory obligations; (d) easements, rights of way and other encumbrances on title to real property that do not render title to the property encumbered thereby unmarketable or materially adversely affect the use of such property for its present purposes; (e) Liens to secure the performance of bids, trade contracts, leases, statutory obligations, surety and appeal bonds, performance bonds and other obligations of a like nature; (f) landlords’ Liens under leases; (g) Liens consisting of leases, subleases, licenses or sublicenses granted to others and not interfering in any material respect with the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and any interest or title of a lessor or licensor under any lease or license, as applicable; (h) Liens arising solely by virtue of any statutory or common law provision relating to banker’s Liens, rights of set-off or similar rights and remedies as to deposit accounts or other funds maintained with a creditor depository institution; and (i) Liens securing judgments for the payment of money not constituting an Event of Default under Section 5(v) or securing appeal or other surety bonds related to such judgments.

7. Successors. Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets or Purchase of Assets. The Company shall not consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions, to another corporation, Person or entity unless:

(ii) immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default exists.

(c) Purchase of Substantial Assets. The Company will not, and will not permit its subsidiaries to, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Notes and Tranche I Notes, purchase assets in one transaction or a series of related transactions in an amount greater than $20,000,000.

8. Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Note may be amended and the Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount then outstanding of the Notes; provided that no such action shall change (i) the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, (ii) reduce the amount of or any provision relating to the scheduled payment of principal of the Notes, (iii) change the time at which any Note must be repurchased or amend the conversion rights as set forth under Sections 3 or 4, (iv) make any Note payable in any money or at any place other than as stated in the Note, (v) impair the right of any Holder to receive payments of the Balance of such Holder’s Notes, any interest required in connection with Section 5(c), and, if applicable any premium required in connection with a Change of Control Payment, on or after the due dates therefore or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes, or (vi) make any change in the amendment provisions which require each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions, in each such case without the consent of the applicable Holder if such change is adverse to such Holder.

9. Seniority of Notes. The Company acknowledges, agrees and covenants that the Notes and the Tranche I Notes shall be its senior obligations, ranking senior in right of payment to Common Stock and to future issuances of Debt other than (i) Debt that is permitted to be secured in accordance with the limitations on Debt in Section 6 hereof under Sections 6(a)(ii)(a) or (c), and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, the Total Notes, which Total Notes shall be pari passu with the Notes and Tranche I Notes except as provided in the MOU (as defined in the Agreement).

10. Place of Payment. Payments of the Balance of the Notes, any interest required in connection with Section 5(c), and, if applicable any premium required in connection with a Change of Control Payment, deliverable upon repayment or conversion of this Note (unless otherwise specified in the conversion notice or any other notice delivered by Holder pursuant to the terms hereof) and all notices and other communications to the Investor hereunder or with respect hereto are to be delivered to the Investor at the address identified in the Agreement or to such other address or to the attention of such other person as specified by prior written notice to the Company, including any transferee of this Note.

11. Costs of Collection.

12. Waivers. The Company hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note.

13. Benefits of the Agreement. The Investor and all transferees of this Note (to the extent such transfer is permitted by the Agreement) shall be entitled to the rights and benefits granted to them in the Agreement.

14. Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 13 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

The provisions of this Section 13 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

15. Antitrust. Holder and the Company hereto agree to (i) file any notifications required by the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”) with respect to the conversion of this Note not more than 35 days prior to the date of conversion or at such other time as agreed by Holder and the Company, (ii) supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act, and (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all other actions necessary, proper, or advisable consistent with this Section 14(a) to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act as soon as practicable.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. The Company

Amyris, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in California on July 17, 2003 and reincorporated in Delaware on June 10, 2010 for the purpose of leveraging breakthroughs in synthetic biology to develop and provide renewable compounds for a variety of markets. The Company is currently building and applying its industrial synthetic biology platform to provide alternatives to select petroleum-sourced products used in specialty chemical and transportation fuel markets worldwide. The Company's first commercialization efforts have been focused on a renewable hydrocarbon molecule called farnesene (Biofene®), which forms the basis for a wide range of products varying from specialty chemical applications to transportation fuels, such as diesel. While the Company's platform is able to use a wide variety of feedstocks, the Company is focused initially on Brazilian sugarcane. In addition, the Company has entered into various contract manufacturing agreements to support commercial production. The Company has established two principal operating subsidiaries, Amyris Brasil Ltda. (formerly Amyris Brasil S.A., “Amyris Brasil”) for production in Brazil, and Amyris Fuels, LLC ("Amyris Fuels"). Nearly all of the Company's revenues through 2012 came from the sale of ethanol and reformulated ethanol-blended gasoline with substantially all of the remaining revenues coming from collaborations, government grants and sales of renewable products. In the third quarter of 2012, the Company transitioned out of the ethanol and reformulated ethanol-blended gasoline business. The Company does not expect to be able to replace much of the revenue lost in the near term as a result of this transition, particularly in 2013, while it continues its efforts to establish a renewable products business.

Beginning in March 2012, the Company initiated a plan to shift a portion of its production capacity from contract manufacturing facilities to a Company-owned plant that was then under construction. As a result, the Company evaluated its contract manufacturing agreements and recorded a loss of $30.4 million related to adverse purchase commitments, $10.0 million related to the write-off of facility modification costs and $5.5 million related to Company-owned equipment at contract manufacturing facilities in the year ended December 31, 2012. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded an additional loss of $8.4 million, which is included in the loss on purchase commitments and write-off of production assets related to a termination and settlement of an existing agreement with one of its contract manufacturers (see Note 8 Significant Agreements). The Company regularly monitors its plan related to production capacity, sales requirements and related cost structure. Changes to this plan may result in additional losses and impairment charges.

The Company's renewable products business strategy is to focus on the commercialization of specialty products while moving established commodity products into joint venture arrangements with leading industry partners. To commercialize its products, the Company must be successful in using its technology to manufacture its products at commercial scale and on an economically viable basis (i.e., low per unit production costs). The Company is building its experience producing renewable products at commercial scale. The Company's prospects are subject to risks, expenses and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in this stage of development.

The Company expects to fund its operations for the foreseeable future with cash and investments currently on hand, with cash inflows from collaboration and grant funding, cash contributions from product sales, and with new debt and equity financing. The Company's planned 2013 working capital needs and its planned operating and capital expenditures for 2013 are dependent on significant inflows of cash from existing collaboration partners, as well as additional funding from new collaborations, and a pending convertible debt offering, and may also require additional funding from credit facilities or loans. The Company will continue to need to fund its research and development and related activities and to provide working capital to fund production, storage, distribution and other aspects of its business. The Company's operating plan contemplates capital expenditures of approximately $10.0 million in 2013 and the Company expects to continue to incur costs in connection with its existing contract manufacturing arrangements (see Note 6 Debt and Note 10 Stockholders' Equity).

Liquidity

The Company has incurred significant losses in each year since its inception and believes that it will continue to incur losses and negative cash flow from operations into at least 2014. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $657.8 million and had cash, cash equivalents and short term investments of $12.9 million. The Company has significant outstanding debt and contractual obligations related to purchase commitments, as well as capital and operating leases. As of June 30, 2013, the Company's debt, net of debt discount, totaled $107.2 million, of which $5.0 million matures within the next twelve months. In addition, the Company's debt agreements contain various covenants, including restrictions on the Company's business that could cause the Company to be at risk of defaults. Please refer to Note 5 Commitments and Contingencies and Note 6 Debt for further details regarding the Company's obligations and commitments.

In March 2013, the Company signed a collaboration agreement with Firmenich that included an annual collaboration funding component, and obtained a commitment letter from an existing stockholder with respect to additional convertible note funding of which $10.0 million was received in the second quarter of 2013 (see Note 8 Significant Agreements and Note 6 Debt), and the Company expects to use amounts received under these arrangements to fund its operations. The Company also received $20.0 million in funding through the sale of a convertible note in private placement under an existing funding agreement with a related party in July 2013 (see Note 17 Subsequent Events). Furthermore, the Company is expecting additional funding in 2013 from collaborations, a pending convertible debt offering, and potentially, other sources. In August 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with certain investors to sell up to $73.1 million in convertible promissory notes in private placements over a period of up to 24 months from the date of signing. This convertible note financing requires the Company to satisfy various conditions before the funding is available, and the offering is divided into two tranches (one for $42.6 million and one for $30.4 million), each with differing closing conditions. Of the total possible purchase price in the financing, $60.0 million would be paid in the form of cash ($35.0 million in the first tranche and up to $25.0 million in the second tranche) and $13.1 million would be paid by cancellation of outstanding promissory notes by an existing stockholder in connection with its exercise of pro rata rights ($7.6 million in the first tranche and $5.4 million in the second tranche). The financing is subject to timing and completion risks, including a requirement that the Company meet certain production milestones before the second tranche is available, and a requirement that the Company obtain stockholder approval prior to completing any closings in the transaction.

Though the Company expects to close its pending convertible note financing in September 2013, if there is any significant delay in such closing, it would likely need to secure additional short-term funding in September 2013. Such short-term funding may not be available on reasonable terms or at all. For example, in order to raise sufficient additional funds, we could be forced to issue further preferred and discounted equity, agree to onerous covenants, grant security interests in our assets, enter into collaboration and licensing arrangements that require us to relinquish commercial rights or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us, or any or all of these. If we are unable to secure sufficient short-term funding to bridge our operations to a delayed closing or fail to complete the pending convertible debt financing within the period covered by any such short-term funding, and fail to secure alternative funding to finance our operations, we would be forced to curtail our operations and cease most of our cash expenditures, which would have a material adverse effect on our ability to continue with our business plans and our status as a going concern.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required for complete financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 28, 2013. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures are unaudited, have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods presented. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The condensed consolidated results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any other future year or interim period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued common disclosure requirements that are intended to enhance comparability between financial statements prepared on the basis of U.S. GAAP and those prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). In January 2013, the FASB issued an accounting standard update to limit the scope of the new balance sheet offsetting disclosures to derivative instruments, repurchase agreements, and securities lending transactions to the extent that they are offset in the financial statement or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar arrangement. While this guidance does not change existing offsetting criteria in U.S. GAAP or the permitted balance sheet presentation for items meeting the criteria, it requires an entity to disclose both net and gross information about assets and liabilities that have been offset and the related arrangements. Required disclosures under this new guidance should be provided retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those years, which was the Company's first quarter of fiscal 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued an amended accounting standard update to simplify how entities test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment which improve consistency in impairment testing requirements among long-lived asset categories. The amended guidance permits an assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. For assets in which this assessment concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value is more than its carrying value, then the amended guidance eliminates the requirement to perform quantitative impairment testing as outlined in the previously issued standards. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012; however, early adoption is permitted. This amended guidance did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, in connection with the accounting standard related to the presentation of the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the FASB issued an accounting standard update to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income of various components. This guidance requires companies to present either parenthetically on the face of the financial statements or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. This standard is effective for interim periods and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2012, which was the Company's first quarter of fiscal 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued a new accounting standard update on the financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefits. The new guidance provides that a liability related to an unrecognized tax benefit would be presented as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed. The new guidance becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2014 and will be applied prospectively to unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date with retrospective applications permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new guidance.

3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value are classified into the following categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities are presented below at fair value and were classified within the fair value hierarchy as follows (in thousands):

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Balance as of June 30, 2013
Financial Assets
Money market funds	$	1,797	$	—	$	—	$	1,797
Certificates of deposit		1,412		—		—		1,412

Convertible notes⁽¹⁾		—		—		70,185		70,185
Compound embedded derivative liability		—		—		10,012		10,012
Currency interest rate swap derivative liability		—		2,937		—		2,937
Total financial liabilities	$	—	$	31,902	$	80,197	$	112,099

⁽¹⁾These liabilities are carried on the consolidated balance sheet on a historical cost basis.

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability. The fair values of money market funds are based on fair values of identical assets. The fair values of the loans payable, convertible notes, credit facilities and currency interest rate swaps are based on the present value of expected future cash flows and assumptions about current interest rates and the creditworthiness of the Company. Market risk associated with fixed and variable rate long-term debt relates to the potential reduction in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from an increase in interest rates.

The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, such as cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and notes payable, approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities, and low market interest rates, if applicable. The fair values of the loans payable, convertible notes and credit facilities are based on the present value of expected future cash flows and assumptions about current interest rates and the creditworthiness of the Company.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the compound embedded derivative liability measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) (in thousands):

	Compound Embedded Derivative Liability
Balance at December 31, 2012	$	7,894
Transfers in to Level 3		4,521
Total (gain) losses included in other income (expense), net		(2,403	)
Balance at June 30, 2013	$	10,012

The compound embedded derivative liability, which is included in other liabilities, represents the fair value of the equity conversion option and a "make-whole" provision relating to the outstanding senior unsecured convertible promissory notes issued to Total Energies Nouvelles Activites USA (f.k.a. Total Gas & Power USA SAS) ("Total") (see Note 6 Debt). There is no current observable market for this type of derivative and, as such, the Company determined the fair value of the embedded derivative using a Black-Scholes valuation model that combines expected cash outflows with market-based assumptions regarding risk-adjusted yields, stock price volatility, probability of a change of control and the trading information of the Company's common stock into which the notes are convertible. The Company marks the embedded derivative to market due to the conversion price not being indexed to the Company's own stock. Except for the "make-whole interest" provision included in the conversion option, which is only required to be settled in cash upon a change of control at the noteholder's option, the embedded derivative will be settled in either cash or shares. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had sufficient common shares to settle the conversion option in shares.

The Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities as of December 31, 2012 are presented below their fair value and were classified within the fair value hierarchy as follows (in thousands):

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Balance as of December 31, 2012

Total financial liabilities	$	—	$	35,253	$	70,416	$	105,669

⁽¹⁾These liabilities are carried on the consolidated balance sheet on a historical cost basis.

Derivative Instruments

The Company’s derivative instruments included Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) ethanol futures and Reformulated Blendstock for Oxygenate Blending (RBOB) gasoline futures. All derivative commodity instruments were recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. None of the Company’s derivative instruments were designated as a hedging instrument. Changes in the fair value of these non-designated hedging instruments were recognized in cost of products sold in the consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had no outstanding derivative commodity instruments resulting from the Company's transition out of its ethanol and ethanol-blended gasoline business in the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

In June 2012, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Banco Pine S.A. under which the bank provided the Company with a short term loan of R$52.0 million (approximately US$25.6 million based on the exchange rate as of September 30, 2012, the time of the loan repayment) (the “Bridge Loan”). At the time of the Bridge Loan, the Company also entered into a currency interest rate swap arrangement with Banco Pine with respect to the repayment of R$22.0 million (approximately US$9.9 million based on the exchange rate of as of June 30, 2013). The swap arrangement exchanges the principal and interest payments under the Banco Pine loan of R$22.0 million entered into in July 2012 for alternative principal and interest payments that are subject to adjustment based on fluctuations in the foreign exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and Brazilian real. The swap has a fixed interest rate of 3.94%. Changes in the fair value of the swap are recognized in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

As of June 30, 2013, included in Other Liabilities is the Company's compound embedded derivative liability of $10.0 million and represents the fair value of the equity conversion option and a "make-whole" provision relating to the outstanding senior unsecured convertible promissory notes issued to Total (see Note 6 Debt).

Derivative instruments measured at fair value as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and their classification on the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations, are presented in the following tables (in thousands except contract amounts):

	Asset/Liability as of
	June 30, 2013				December 31, 2012
Type of Derivative Contract	Quantity of Contracts		Fair Value		Quantity of Contracts		Fair Value
Currency interest rate swap, included as net liability in other long term liability		1	$	2,937		1	$	1,367

4. Balance Sheet Components

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and consist of the following (in thousands):

	June 30,		December 31,
	2013		2012
Raw materials	$	1,143	$	1,574
Work-in-process		1,374		1,771
Finished goods		1,548		2,689
Inventories, net	$	4,065	$	6,034

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its inventories based on assumptions about expected demand and net realizable value. If the Company determines that the cost of inventories exceeds its estimated net realizable value, the Company records a write-down equal to the difference between the cost of inventories and the estimated net realizable value. Cost is computed on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventory costs include transportation costs incurred in bringing the inventory to its existing location. The Company also evaluates the terms of its agreements with its suppliers and establishes accruals for estimated adverse purchase commitments as necessary, applying the same lower of cost or market approach that is used to value inventory.

Property, Plant and Equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment, net is comprised of the following (in thousands):

		June 30,			December 31,
	Useful Life	2013			2012
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of remaining useful life or lease term	$	39,118		$	39,290
Machinery and equipment	7 - 15 Years		98,039			105,162
Computers and software	3 - 5 Years		8,442			8,232

5. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leased certain facilities and financed certain of its equipment under operating and capital leases. Operating leases include leased facilities and capital leases included leased equipment (see Note 4 Balance Sheet Components). Rent expense under operating leases was approximately $1.4 million and $1.2 million respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and was $2.1 million and $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

On April 30, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment to its operating lease for its headquarters in Emeryville, California (the "Amendment"). The operating lease amendment provided for an extension of the lease term to May 2023, a modification of the base rent and elimination of the Company's loans and notes payable to the lessor of approximately $1.6 million (see Note 6 Debt). In addition, per the terms of the Amendment, the Company also received a rent credit of approximately $71,000 per month for the period June 2013 through December 2013 and a rent credit of approximately $42,000 per month for the full year 2014.

Future minimum payments under the Company's lease obligations as of June 30, 2013, are as follows (in thousands):

Guarantor Arrangements

The Company has agreements whereby it indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer or director’s lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, the Company has a director and officer insurance policy that limits its exposure and enables the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of its insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Accordingly, the Company had no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

The Company has a credit facility (“FINEP Credit Facility”) with a financial institution to finance a research and development project on sugarcane-based biodiesel (see Note 6 Debt). The FINEP Credit Facility provides for loans of up to an aggregate principal amount of R$6.4 million (approximately US$2.9 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013) which is guaranteed by a chattel mortgage on certain equipment of the Company. The Company's total acquisition cost for the equipment under this guarantee is approximately R$6.0 million (approximately US$2.7 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013). Through December 31, 2012, the Company received all four disbursements after compliance with certain terms and conditions under the FINEP Credit Facility as described in more detail in Note 6. After the release of the first disbursement and prior to any subsequent drawdown from the FINEP Credit Facility, the Company provided bank letters of guarantee of R$3.3 million (approximately US$1.5 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013) through Banco ABC Brasil S.A. As of June 30, 2013, all available credit under this facility was fully drawn.

The Company has a credit facility (“BNDES Credit Facility”) with a financial institution to finance a production site in Brazil. This credit facility is collateralized by a first priority security interest in certain of the Company's equipment and other tangible assets totaling R$24.9 million (approximately US$11.2 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013). The Company is a parent guarantor for the payment of the outstanding balance under the BNDES Credit Facility. Additionally, the Company is required to provide a bank guarantee under the BNDES Credit Facility.

The Company has signed loan agreements and a security agreement where the Company pledged certain farnesene production assets as collateral (the fiduciary conveyance of movable goods) with each of Nossa Caixa and Banco Pine. Under the loan agreements, Banco Pine agreed to lend R$22.0 million and Nossa Caixa agreed to lend R$30.0 million as financing for capital expenditures relating to the Company's production facility in Brotas. The Company's total acquisition cost for the farnesene production assets pledged as collateral under these agreements is approximately R$68.0 million (approximately US$30.7 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013). The Company is a also a parent guarantor for the payment of the outstanding balance under these loan agreements.

The Company has an export financing agreement for approximately US$2.5 million (approximately R$5.0 million based on exchange rate as of March 18, 2013) for a 1 year-term to fund exports through March 2014. This loan is collateralized by future exports from the Company's subsidiary in Brazil.

Under an operating lease agreement for its office facilities in Brazil, which commenced on November 15, 2011, the Company is required to maintain restricted cash or letters of credit equal to 3 months of rent of approximately R$0.2 million (approximately US$0.1 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013) in the aggregate as a guarantee that the Company will meet its performance obligations under such operating lease agreement.

Purchase Obligations

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had $11.6 million in purchase obligations which included $10.9 million in non-cancelable contractual obligations and construction commitments, of which $4.0 million have been accrued as loss on purchase commitments.

On June 25, 2013, the Company and Tate & Lyle Ingredients Americas LLC (“Tate & Lyle”) entered into a Settlement Agreement, Termination Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Termination Agreement”) to terminate the parties’ November 2010 contract manufacturing agreement. Under the Termination Agreement, no further payments will be owed for the remaining term of the Contract Manufacturing Agreement (i.e., through 2016). As of June 30, 2013 the Company has an outstanding liability of $8.8 million pertaining to its obligation under the Termination Agreement. In July 2013, the Company paid $3.6 million of its obligation pertaining to the Termination Agreement.

Other Matters

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued which may result in a loss to the Company but will only be recorded when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company's management assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against and by the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company's management evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company's financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.

In May 2013, a securities class action complaint was filed against the Company and its CEO, John G. Melo, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The complaint seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a purported class that would comprise all individuals who acquired the Company's common stock between April 29, 2011 and February 8, 2012. The complaint alleges securities law violations based on the Company's commercial projections during that period. The Company believes the complaint lacks merit, and intends to defend itself vigorously. Because the case is at a very early stage and no specific monetary demand has been made, it is not possible for us to estimate the potential loss or range of potential losses for the case.

The Company is subject to disputes and claims that arise or have arisen in the ordinary course of business and that have not resulted in legal proceedings or have not been fully adjudicated. Such matters that may arise in the ordinary course of business are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. Therefore, if one or more of these legal disputes or claims resulted in settlements or legal proceedings that were resolved against the Company for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the relevant reporting period could be materially adversely affected.

FINEP Credit Facility

In November 2010, the Company entered into a credit facility with Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos (“FINEP”), a state-owned company subordinated to the Brazilian Ministry of Science and Technology. This FINEP Credit Facility was extended to partially fund expenses related to the Company’s research and development project on sugarcane-based biodiesel (“FINEP Project”) and provides for loans of up to an aggregate principal amount of R$6.4 million (approximately US$2.9 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013) which is secured by a chattel mortgage on certain equipment of the Company as well as by bank letters of guarantee. As of December 31, 2012, all available credit under this facility was fully drawn.

Interest on loans drawn under this credit facility is fixed at 5% per annum. In case of default under or non-compliance with the terms of the agreement, the interest on loans will be dependent on the long-term interest rate as published by the Central Bank of Brazil (“TJLP”). If the TJLP at the time of default is greater than 6%, then the interest will be 5% plus a TJLP adjustment factor, otherwise the interest will be at 11% per annum. In addition, a fine of up to 10% shall apply to the amount of any obligation in default. Interest on late balances will be 1% interest per month, levied on the overdue amount. Payment of the outstanding loan balance is being made in 81 monthly installments, which commenced in July 2012 and extends through March 2019. Interest on loans drawn and other charges are paid on a monthly basis and commenced in March 2011. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the total outstanding loan balance under this credit facility was R$5.8 million (approximately US$2.6 million based on exchange rate as of June 30, 2013) and R$6.4 million (approximately US$3.1 million based on exchange rate as of December 31, 2012), respectively.

The FINEP Credit Facility contains the following significant terms and conditions:

• The Company would share with FINEP the costs associated with the FINEP Project. At a minimum, the Company would contribute from its own funds approximately R$14.5 million (approximately US$7.1 million based on the exchange rate as of December 31, 2012) of which R$11.1 million was to be contributed prior to the release of the second disbursement. As of December 31, 2012, all four disbursements were completed and for its part, the Company has fulfilled all of its cost sharing obligations;

• After the release of the first disbursement, prior to any subsequent drawdown from the FINEP Credit Facility, the Company was required to provide bank letters of guarantee of up to R$3.3 million in aggregate (approximately US$1.5 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013). On December 17, 2012 and prior to release of the second disbursement on December 26, 2012, the Company obtained the required bank letter of guarantees from Banco ABC Brasil, S.A.

• Amounts released from the FINEP Credit Facility must be completely used by the Company towards the FINEP Project within 30 months after the contract execution.

BNDES Credit Facility

In December 2011, the Company entered into a credit facility ("BNDES Credit Facility”) in the amount of R$22.4 million (approximately US$10.1 million based on the exchange rate at June 30, 2013) with Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social ('BNDES”), a government owned bank headquartered in Brazil. This BNDES facility was extended as project financing for a production site in Brazil. The credit line is divided into an initial tranche for up to approximately R$19.1 million (approximately US$8.6 million based on the exchange rate at June 30, 2013) and an additional tranche of approximately R$3.3 million (approximately US$1.5 million based on the exchange rate at June 30, 2013) that becomes available upon delivery of additional guarantees. The credit line is available for 12 months from the date of the Credit Facility, subject to extension by the lender.

The principal of the loans under the BNDES Credit Facility is required to be repaid in 60 monthly installments, with the first installment due in January 2013 and the last due in December 2017. Interest was due initially on a quarterly basis with the first installment due in March 2012. From and after January 2013, interest payments are due on a monthly basis together with principal payments. The loaned amounts carry interest of 7% per annum. Additionally, there is a credit reserve charge of 0.1% on the unused balance from each credit installment from the day immediately after it is made available through its date of use, when it is paid.

The BNDES Credit Facility is collateralized by a first priority security interest in certain of the Company's equipment and other tangible assets totaling R$24.9 million (approximately US$11.2 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013). The Company is a parent guarantor for the payment of the outstanding balance under the BNDES Credit Facility. Additionally, the Company is required to provide a bank guarantee equal to 10.0% of the total approved amount (R$22.4 million in total debt) available under this Credit Facility. For advances of the second tranche (above R$19.1 million), the Company is required to provide additional bank guarantees equal to 90.0% of each such advance, plus additional Company guarantees equal to at least 130.0% of such advance. The BNDES Credit Facility contains customary events of default, including payment failures, failure to satisfy other obligations under this credit facility or related documents, defaults in respect of other indebtedness, bankruptcy, insolvency and inability to pay debts when due, material judgments, and changes in control of Amyris Brasil. If any event of default occurs, the Lender may terminate its commitments and declare immediately due all borrowings under the facility. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 the Company had R$17.2 million (approximately US$7.8 million based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2013) and R$19.1 million (approximately US$9.3 million based on the exchange rate as of December 31, 2012) in outstanding advances under the BNDES Credit Facility.

Notes Payable

During the period between May 2008 and October 2008, the Company entered into notes payable agreements with the lessor of its headquarters under which it borrowed a total of $3.3 million for the purchase of tenant improvements, bearing an interest rate of 9.5% per annum and to be repaid over a period of 55 to 120 months. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, a principal amount of zero and $1.6 million, respectively, was outstanding under these notes payable. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, as part of the Amendment entered into on April 30, 2013 to the Company's operating lease for its headquarters, the Company recorded the elimination of these notes payable as a lease incentive and recorded approximately $1.4 million to deferred rent liability in the consolidated balance sheet.

Convertible Notes

In February 2012, the Company completed the sale of senior unsecured convertible promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, between the Company and certain investment funds affiliated with Fidelity Investments Institutional Services Company, Inc.
