On December 2, 2011, Parabel Inc.

(AIQ) that provided for the construction of a pilot-scale bioreactor in the Republic of Chile and a framework for the subsequent build-out of a commercial-scale facility in South America, subject to the parties agreement that the pilot-scale bioreactor has been operated successfully. For additional details regarding the Agreement, please see the Original Form 8-K.
The Company previously filed a partially redacted copy of the Agreement as Exhibit 10.1 to the Original Form 8-K. This Amendment No. 1 to the Original Form 8-K (Amendment No. 1) is being filed by the Company in connection with its withdrawal of its application for confidential treatment with respect to some, but not all, redacted portions of this Exhibit for which the Company had previously sought confidential treatment pursuant to an application under Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 406 under the Securities Act of 1933. A revised redacted copy of this exhibit that includes previously redacted information for which the Company has withdrawn its request for confidential treatment is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Amendment No. 1.
Except as described above and set forth herein, no modifications have been made to information contained in the Original Form 8-K, and the Company has not updated any information contained therein to reflect events that have occurred since the date of the Original Form 8-K.
