Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 12, 2011, ChromaDex, Inc., a California corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of ChromaDex Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Chromadex"), entered into a License Agreement (the "Agreement") with Cornell University ("Cornell"). Under the terms of the Agreement, Cornell granted to ChromaDex a worldwide, exclusive, sublicensable right and license to use certain patent rights relating to the compound known as Nicotinamide Riboside, for use in dietary supplement, food, food additive, cosmetic, and drug products. The Agreement terminates on the earliest of the expiration date of the last to expire patent right. Cornell may terminate the Agreement early if Chromadex is unable to satisfy certain milestone requirements set forth in the Agreement. ChromaDex may terminate the Agreement at any time upon 90 days' prior written notice.

As consideration for the license granted, ChromaDex will make a cash payment to Cornell. Additionally, ChromaDex will pay Cornell annual license maintenance fees ranging from $15,000 to $75,000 during the period prior to generation of commercial sales, earned royalties on net sales of all licensed products, payments upon the completion of certain strategic milestones, as well as other consideration associated with sublicensing and manufacturing of the compound.

ChromaDex has agreed to diligently develop, manufacture and sell licensed products and must achieve certain milestone events set forth in the Agreement.

The foregoing is a summary of the material terms of the Agreement and does not purport to be complete. You should read the complete Agreement, which shall be attached as an exhibit to ChromaDex Corporation's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 1, 2011 and, when filed, such Agreement shall be incorporated by reference herein. ChromaDex Corporation will seek confidential treatment for certain terms of the Agreement at the time of filing such Quarterly Report.
