ARTICLE 4
CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND CERTAIN FINANCIAL TERMS
4.1    Capital Contributions. The Parties hereby confirm that the applicable Parties have made the contributions, and performed the acts, set forth in Section 4.1 of the Original Joint Venture Agreement.
4.2    Additional Capital Contributions.
(a)    Subject to Section 4.5, additional capital contributions (“Capital Contributions”) to the JV Companies from the Parties shall require the prior approval of the Board. Subject only to the immediately foregoing sentence and to Section 4.2(b), no Party shall be required to make any Capital Contributions to any JV Company. Subject to Section 4.2(b), if the Board approves additional Capital Contributions it shall provide notice (or direct that such notice be provided) to Bunge Netherlands and Solazyme, Inc. requiring the payment of such additional capital (a “Capital Call”). Any Capital Call shall set forth inter alia (i) the total amount of the additional capital required and each Party’s share thereof, which shall be in proportion to each Party’s Percentage Interest as set forth in Section 4.3 (except in the case of Capital Calls made pursuant to the first sentence of Section 4.3), (ii) the date upon which such additional capital is to be contributed and (iii) any other reasonable and customary terms and conditions relating thereto.
(b)    Attached as Exhibit B is a preliminary forecast and model covering the first twenty-four (24) months after the Effective Date (the “Forecast Period”). This forecast and model shall be revised and updated by the Parties by December 31, 2015 and upon the written consent of Solazyme, Inc. and BGI replace the preliminary forecast and model attached as Exhibit B and thereafter be deemed to be the “Forecast” for the purposes of this Agreement.

6


The Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group hereby agree to fund through Capital Calls the expected operational losses of the Joint Venture up to the amount set forth in the Forecast only if (i) for quarters commencing after *, the actual operational loss is not more than * greater than set forth in the Forecast for any two consecutive calendar quarters, (ii) each quarterly Capital Contribution for this purpose is approved by the Board as set forth in Section 4.2(a) and (iii) there is quarterly confirmation from each equity holder in the Company, in its sole discretion, that the Joint Venture, on a consolidated basis, is reasonably on a path to profitability and to cash flow from operations breakeven before the end of the Forecast Period.
4.3    Draw-Down of Additional Capital Contributions. The Company shall initially (i.e. for so long as the equity ownership of the Company remains 50.1%/49.9%) draw down additional Capital Contributions that have been approved by the Board equally (50%/50%) from Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands, as needed to fund the JV Companies. Capital Calls contemplated by Section 4.2(a) are expected to occur no more frequently than once per calendar quarter. If the Percentage Interests of the Parties change from the Percentage Interests set forth in Section 3.1, draw-downs of additional Capital Contributions thereafter shall be pro rata in accordance with the Percentage Interests of the Parties. Individual draw-downs shall be for amounts not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands shall receive written notice of the draw-downs together with payment instructions not less than thirty (30) days in advance of the draw-down due date.
4.4    Failure to Fund Capital Contributions. If a Party does not fund all or any portion of a Capital Call by the due date specified in a draw-down notice properly delivered in accordance with Section 4.2 and Section 4.3, the non-funding Party (either Bunge Netherlands or Solazyme, Inc.) shall be provided with a notice of deficiency and shall have ten (10) Business Days to fund the deficient portion of its Capital Call. If the non-funding Party fails to pay the deficient portion of the Capital Call within such ten (10) Business Day period, then the other Party (to the extent that such other Party has fully funded its Capital Call) shall have the opportunity to fund the deficient portion of the non-funding Party’s Capital Call and if it does so, the Parties’ respective Percentage Interests shall be adjusted to reflect the funding Party’s increased capital contribution. If neither Party funds the deficient portion of a Capital Call, the respective Percentage Interests of the Parties shall be adjusted to reflect the unequal Capital Contributions. The adjustment of the Percentage Interests due to the failure to make equal Capital Contributions under this Article 4 shall be made on the basis of the total cash contributions made by each Party to the Company. Exhibit C provides an example of how this adjustment is calculated. The failure of a Party to fund all or any portion of a Capital Call shall not be deemed a material breach of this Agreement, and the adjustment set forth in this Section 4.4 shall be the sole remedy for any such failure.
4.5    Voluntary Loans and Capital Contributions.

(a)    Notwithstanding Section 6.5(a)(vi) and Sections 6.5(b)(iii), (iv) and (xi), if representatives of the Bunge Group or the Solazyme Group (the “Proposing Party”) request that the Company make a Capital Call to fund Core Operating Expenses or to fund the expenses for the manufacture of Confirmed Orders, and the Company fails to make the Capital Call within ten (10) days after such request due to the actions or inactions of either the Bunge Group or the Solazyme Group (the “Declining Party”) (such as by voting down the request at a Board meeting or in a Member vote pursuant to Section 6.5(a)(iv) or refusing to take part in such a decision), then the Proposing Party may choose to make one or more loans to one or more of the JV Companies, each of which shall be evidenced by, and on the terms set forth in, this Agreement and the form of Note to be attached hereto as Exhibit D (each, a “Note”). The Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group shall use their respective best efforts to agree to a form of Note to be attached hereto as Exhibit D within thirty (30) days following the Effective Date, and such form of Note, as so agreed in writing, shall be Exhibit D hereto. The form of Note shall provide, among other things, (i) for interest at LIBOR plus 15% per annum, with principal and interest payable in cash on the maturity of the Note, (ii) that the Note may be accelerated upon a payment default, a cross default by any JV Company under another obligation or judgment of at least a dollar figure to be agreed, or upon customary insolvency events, (iii) that the Note shall be prepayable at any time without penalty and (iv) that each Note will be pari passu with each other Note. Upon the issuance of any Note, the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group will use their respective best efforts to cause such Note to be secured by all assets of the JV Companies that are not pledged to BNDES, under the Working Capital Agreement or otherwise.
(b)    With respect to the aggregate principal amount of Notes issued per quarter, the Proposing Party may loan up to its good faith estimate of the amount required to fund Core Operating Expenses and the manufacture of Confirmed Orders for the succeeding ninety (90) days. Each such Note shall mature on the first anniversary of the issuance of the first such Note to be issued (the “First Maturity Date”), provided that the Proposing Party may elect to extend the maturity of all such Notes until a date up to six (6) months following the First Maturity Date (the “Outside Maturity Date”), so long as the Declining Party does not object to such extension in writing within ten (10) days after notice from the Proposing Party that it desires to make such extension. The JV Companies shall accept such loan(s), deliver executed counterparts of such Notes as shall be requested by the Proposing Party, and apply the proceeds of such loan(s) as directed by the Proposing Party to fund Core Operating Expenses or to fund the expenses for the manufacture of Confirmed Orders. In the event that the Company fails to execute one or more Notes evidencing such loans, such loans will, from and after the tender of the principal amount thereof by the Proposing Party to a JV Company, be deemed evidenced hereby and will be governed by the terms set forth herein and in the form of Note to be attached hereto as Exhibit D.
(c)    At any time prior to the maturity of all outstanding Notes, the Declining Party may make a voluntary Capital Contribution to the Company in an amount equal to one half

8
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



of the aggregate principal and interest then accrued on all outstanding Notes. The Company shall accept such Capital Contribution and use the proceeds of such Capital Contribution to prepay half the outstanding aggregate principal amount and accrued interest on such Notes, in reverse chronological order of issuance, with accrued interest on each Note being prepaid prior to its principal. The remaining half of the aggregate principal and accrued interest on such Notes shall, upon the repayment contemplated by this Section 4.5(c), be cancelled and such cancellation considered a Capital Contribution of the Proposing Party, such that following the Capital Contribution, Note repayment and debt cancellation contemplated by this Section 4.5(c), the Parties’ relative Percentage Interests shall remain unchanged. From and after such events, this Section 4.5 shall be construed as though no voluntary loans had been made to the Company pursuant hereto.
(d)    If either (i) all outstanding Notes are not repaid in full by the Company on or before the First Maturity Date or the Outside Maturity Date, as applicable, or (ii) all such outstanding Notes are so repaid but the Declining Party declines to approve (and fund) a Capital Call request made by the Proposing Party in an amount up to the Proposing Party’s good faith estimate of the amount required to fund normal operations of the JV Companies for the succeeding ninety (90) days, which request is made within thirty (30) day of the First Maturity Date or the Outside Maturity Date, as applicable, then the Proposing Party shall have the right to provide the Notice Party affiliated with the Declining Party with an Article 9 Notice and proceed with the procedures set forth in Section 9.2. To be timely, the Proposing Party must (and may) deliver the Article 9 Notice under this Section 4.5(d) within thirty (30) day after (A) the First Maturity Date or the Outside Maturity Date, as applicable, if the Notes are not repaid in full on the applicable maturity date or (B) the Proposing Party’s request for the associated Capital Call if the Notes are repaid in full on the applicable maturity date.
(e)    Except as contemplated by Section 4.5(c), no voluntary (i.e. not in response to a Capital Call) Capital Contributions may be made by any Party at any time.
4.6    No Interest on or Right to Withdraw Capital Contributions. No interest shall be paid on any Capital Contribution to a JV Company or on the balance in any capital account of a JV Company. No Party shall have the right to withdraw its Capital Contributions or to demand or receive a return of its Capital Contribution.
4.7    Cash Distributions and SB Oils Allocations.
(a)    Cash distributions from SB Oils related to distributions of profits or return of capital, and allocations of profits and losses of SB Oils shall be made solely to the Company. Unless unanimously determined otherwise by the quotaholders of SB Oils, cash distributions for a Fiscal Year shall be made in arrears in an amount equal to Free Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year

9

less Reasonable Reserves. Such distributions shall be made within ten (10) Business Days of the finalization of SB Oils financial statements for such Fiscal Year.
(b)    Cash distributions from the Company related to distributions of profits or return of capital shall be made in accordance with the Percentage Interests of the Parties. Unless determined otherwise by the Board, cash distributions for a Fiscal Year shall be made in arrears in an amount equal to Free Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year less Reasonable Reserves. Such distributions shall be made within ten (10) Business Days of the finalization of the Company’s financial statements for such Fiscal Year.
(c)    Notwithstanding Sections 4.7(a) and (b), within forty-five (45) calendar days after the end of each of the first three (3) quarters of each Tax Year, SB Oils shall distribute to the Company, and the Company shall then distribute to each Member (the “Estimated Tax Distributions”), an amount of cash equal to the highest Estimated Tax Distribution Amount of any Member for such quarter. Within ninety (90) calendar days after the end of each Tax Year, SB Oils shall distribute to the Company, and the Company shall then distribute to each Member (the “Annual Tax Distribution” and together with the Estimated Tax Distributions, the “Tax Distributions”) an amount of cash equal to the greatest number for any Member calculated as follows: (i) such Member’s Annual Tax Distribution Amount for such Tax Year minus (ii) the sum of such Member’s Estimated Tax Distributions for such Tax Year. Tax Distributions to a Member shall be treated as an advance of, and shall reduce the amount of, the distributions otherwise payable to such Member pursuant to Section 4.7(a) and (b).
(d)    The Company is authorized to withhold from distributions (or with respect to allocations) to the Members and to pay over to any U.S. federal, state or local, or Dutch, Uruguayan or foreign government, any amounts that it reasonably determines may be required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other U.S. federal, state or local, or Dutch, Uruguayan or other foreign law. All amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any U.S. state or local, or Dutch, Uruguayan or foreign tax law, with respect to any allocation or distribution to any Member shall be treated as amounts distributed to such Member for all purposes under this Agreement.
4.8    Financial Consolidation. It is the intention of the Parties that Solazyme, Inc. consolidate the financial results of the JV Companies with the financial results of Solazyme, Inc. The Parties each agree to provide reasonable accommodations to enable Solazyme, Inc. to consolidate the financial results of the JV Companies with the financial results of Solazyme, Inc. to the extent allowable under United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

ARTICLE 5
TAX MATTERS
5.1    Capital Accounts.
(a)    The Company shall maintain a separate Capital Account for the Members according to the rules of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). Determinations regarding the fair market value of property contributed to or distributed by the Company shall, solely for purposes of maintaining Capital Accounts, be made by the Tax Matters Partner. In the event the Tax Matters Partner shall determine that it is prudent to modify the manner in which the Capital Accounts, or any debits or credits thereto, are computed in order to comply with Regulations under Code Section 704, the Tax Matters Partner may make such modification as appropriate.
(b)    For purposes of computing the amount of any item of Company income, gain, loss or deduction to be allocated to the Capital Accounts pursuant to this Article 5, the determination, recognition and classification of any such item shall be the same as its determination, recognition and classification for U.S. federal income tax purposes (including any method of depreciation, cost recovery or amortization used for this purpose), provided that:
(i)    The computation of all items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall include those items described in Code Section 705(a)(1)(B) or Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i), without regard to the fact that such items are not includable in gross income or are not deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
(ii)    If the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), the amount of such adjustment shall be taken into account as gain or loss from the disposition of such asset.
(iii)    Items of income, gain, loss or deduction attributable to the disposition of any Company asset having a Book Value that differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes shall be computed by reference to the Book Value of such asset.
(iv)    To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code Sections 732(d), 734(b) or 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis).

11
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



(v)    If Company assets are distributed to the Members in kind, such distributions shall be treated as sales of such assets for cash at their respective fair market values.
(vi)    If the Book Value of any Company asset differs from its adjusted basis for tax purposes as of the beginning of any Fiscal Year or other period, then in lieu of the depreciation, amortization and other cost recovery deductions taken into account with respect to such asset in computing the Company’s taxable income or loss for such Fiscal Year or other period, there shall be taken into account with respect to such asset an amount that bears the same ratio to such beginning Book Value as the U.S. federal income tax depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery deduction for such Fiscal Year or other period bears to such beginning adjusted tax basis (unless the adjusted tax basis is equal to zero, in which event the amount of depreciation, amortization or other cost recovery that will be taken into account shall be determined under any reasonable method selected by the Tax Matters Partner).
(c)    Upon a transfer of interests in the Company, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account and other rights to distributions of the transferor.
5.2    Adjustment of Book Value of Company Assets. The Company may (at the discretion of the Tax Matters Partner) adjust the Book Value of each of the Company’s assets to equal such asset’s gross fair market value (as determined by the Tax Matters Partner) upon the occurrence of any of the events described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f).
5.3    Allocations. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.3 and in Section 5.4, items of Company income, gain, loss or deduction for any Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Members in such a manner that, as of the end of such Fiscal Year, the Capital Account of each Member (increased by the amount of partnership minimum gain and partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain that would be charged back to such Member as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2 in connection with the deemed asset sale described below) shall as nearly as possible be equal to the amount that would be distributed to such Member if the Company were to (i) liquidate the assets of the Company for an amount equal to their Book Value, (ii) satisfy all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company for their book value and (i) distribute the remaining proceeds in accordance with Section 18.1.
5.4    Special Allocations.
(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 5, if there is a net decrease in “partnership minimum gain” or “partner nonrecourse debt minimum gain” (as defined in applicable Regulations under Code Section 704) for any Fiscal Year, then items of income and gain for such year (and, if necessary, subsequent years) shall be specially allocated

12
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



among the Members in accordance with requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f) and (i). This Section is intended to comply with the “minimum gain chargeback” requirements of such Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
(b)    If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). This Section is intended to comply with the “qualified income offset” provision of such Regulations and shall be interpreted consistent therewith.
(c)    If and to the extent that the allocation of any “nonrecourse deductions” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) for any Fiscal Year would not otherwise satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(e), then such nonrecourse deductions shall be specially allocated among the Members in proportion to their Percentage Interests or as otherwise required by Regulations under Code Section 704.
(d)    The allocations set forth in this Section 5.4 (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b). The Regulatory Allocations may not be consistent with the manner in which the Members intend to allocate income, gains, losses and deductions of the Company or make Company distributions. Accordingly, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Article 5, but subject to the Regulatory Allocations, income, gains, losses and deductions shall be allocated among the Members so as to eliminate the effect of the Regulatory Allocations and thereby cause the respective Capital Accounts of the Members to be in the amounts (or as close thereto as possible) they would have been if income, gains, losses and deductions had been allocated without reference to the Regulatory Allocations.

ARTICLE 7
OPERATIONS
7.1    Collaboration and Support; Administrative Services.
(a)    The intent of the Parties is that the JV Companies shall be capable of functioning independently of the Parties.

(b)    In order to contain costs and leverage the infrastructure and expertise of the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group, the Parties entered into the Administrative Services Agreements, pursuant to which members of the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group will make available or provide, at rates as agreed by the Parties, certain facilities and services (collectively, “Administrative Services”), in each case as the Board determine to be necessary and appropriate. The Parties contemplate that such Administrative Services shall be phased out over time.

22

identified by the Board as necessary for the development of Products and the Business. The current expectation is that the JV Companies shall continue to utilize the combined R&D capabilities of the Solazyme Group and the Bunge Group for the R&D program.
(a)    In furtherance of the R&D program, the Company, the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group (the “R&D Parties”) shall establish a research and development committee (the “Research and Development Committee”) to oversee the conduct of the R&D program, and in particular, the Project Plans under the Solazyme Development Agreement and the Bunge Development Agreement (“Project Plans”), monitor research and development progress under the R&D program, and facilitate the exchange of information relating to the R&D program among the R&D Parties.
(b)    The Research and Development Committee shall be comprised of two (2) representatives from the Solazyme Group and two (2) representatives from the Bunge Group, or such other equal number of representatives as Solazyme, Inc. and BGI may from time to time agree in writing, with each such Party’s representatives selected by the applicable Party. The Research and Development Committee shall also have such non-voting representatives of the JV Companies as the R&D Parties shall agree. Each of the Solazyme Group and the Bunge Group shall have one vote on the Research and Development Committee. Any R&D Party may replace its respective Research and Development Committee members at any time, upon written notice to the other R&D Parties.
(c)    During the Term, the Research and Development Committee shall meet quarterly, or as mutually agreed by the R&D Parties, at locations agreed by the R&D Parties.

applicable voting R&D Party, who shall meet to discuss and attempt to resolve the matter within thirty (30) days of the referral.
7.3    Marketing, Sales and Distribution. Subject to the applicable terms of this Agreement and the Manufacturing and Supply Agreements, the Sales Affiliates and Brazil Affiliates shall determine the approach to marketing, sales and distribution of Products in their respective fields in their respective jurisdictions.
(a)    For sales outside Brazil, SB Oils will sell Products, either with or without further RBD by a member of the Bunge Group, to Affiliates of the Bunge Group or the Solazyme Group (as applicable, “Sales Affiliates”) who may further treat, formulate, blend or package the Products, if and to the extent necessary, and then resell the Products (either in the form received from SB Oils or in its modified form, as applicable) to end customers. Each Sales Affiliate will pay SB Oils for the Products the Price set forth in the applicable Manufacturing and Supply Agreement, which captures the value created by the algal component of the Product sold to the customer, less certain costs, royalties (if applicable) and distribution fees as provided in the Manufacturing and Supply Agreements.
(b)    For sales inside Brazil, SB Oils will sell Products, either with or without further RBD by a member of the Bunge Group, to Bunge Brazil or Solazyme Brazil (as applicable, the “Brazil Affiliates”) who may further treat, formulate, blend, or package the Products, if and to the extent necessary, and then resell the Products (either in the form received from SB Oils or in its modified form, as applicable) to end customers. Each Brazil Affiliate will pay SB Oils for the Products the Price set forth in the applicable Manufacturing and Supply Agreement, which captures the value created by the algal component of the Product resold to the customers, less certain costs, royalties (if applicable) and distribution fees as provided in the Manufacturing and Supply Agreements. Thus, SB Oils will accrue economic value for further distribution to the Company and ultimately to Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands.
7.4    Sales Channels. The Parties currently contemplate that the JV Companies will not build direct sales forces but will utilize the established sales forces and networks of the Bunge Group, or sales personnel of the Solazyme Group, on the terms set forth below and in the Manufacturing and Supply Agreements and the Sales Affiliate License Agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, no JV Company may make any sales except through a primary or secondary sales channel as described in this Section 7.5 or as otherwise approved in writing by the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group. No Sales Affiliate or Brazil Affiliate shall sell Products to a customer with knowledge that such Product is to be used outside of the fields or territory authorized in this Agreement and the applicable Manufacturing and Supply Agreement and Sales Affiliate License Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Bunge Group will keep the Solazyme Group apprised of significant marketing and sales decisions for such products for the Bunge Primary Fields and will have periodic meetings with the Solazyme Group regarding the same and will consider any feedback or suggestions members of the Solazyme Group have in regard to such marketing and sales. The Bunge Group will continue to be the sole primary sales channel for Products in the Bunge Primary Fields provided that:

If the Bunge Group does not meet one or more of the sales targets listed in Section 7.5(a)(v) but can show a committed sales pipeline that would allow the target to be met within six (6) months, then the Bunge Group will be entitled to a six (6) month extension to meet such target(s).
If the Bunge Group forfeits its status as sole primary sales channel for a particular Product and field (* Products for the Food Field, * Products for the Food Field and the Feed Field or * Products for the Food Field and the Feed Field) (or fails to meet the Conditions Precedent by *) as contemplated above, then each of the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group shall be a primary sales channel for that particular Product and field, meaning that neither group may approach a customer or consummate a sale without the prior consent of the other, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld. An arrangement in which each of the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group is a primary sales channel for a Product and field is referred to herein as a
Joint Primary Sales Arrangement.” If, after the Bunge Group has forfeited its status as sole primary sales channel, either the Bunge Group or the Solazyme Group fails to satisfy the conditions as set forth in Section 7.5(a)(i) – Section 7.5(a)(iv), then the other group shall be

26

authorized to approach customers and make sales without the consent of the group that failed to satisfy such conditions. If both groups fail to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.5(a)(i) – Section 7.5(a)(iv), then each group shall be authorized to approach customers and make sales without the consent of the other group; such an arrangement is referred to herein as a “Parallel Primary Sales Arrangement.”
For the purposes of this Section 7.5(a), the “Conditions Precedent” for the retention of the Bunge Group as the primary sales channel for * Products for the Food Field and the Feed Field are as follows:
The Bunge Group has recruited and/or assigned an experienced commercial team capable of marketing and selling into the * spaces in at least *.
The Bunge Group has provided to the Board, and the Board has approved, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, commercially reasonable product marketing plans that include, at least, market sizing, market segmentation and tactical product roll-out plans.
The Bunge Group has arranged for * to take place with at least one major customer.
The Bunge Group has designed and implemented a collaboration protocol amongst the Parties covering commercial operations and manufacturing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing both the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group will work together to prepare and implement a joint branding and go-to-market plans for the short term for * Products.
(b)    The Solazyme Group will be an authorized secondary sales channel for the Products in the Bunge Primary Field, meaning that the Solazyme Group may approach a potential customer or consummate a sale of Products in the Bunge Primary Field only with the prior consent of the Bunge Group. The Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group will collaborate to identify specified customers, initial value-based sales and other channel-based initiatives within in the Bunge Primary Field that are appropriate for the Solazyme Group. The Solazyme Group will concentrate on customers and segments as to which the Bunge Group shall have provided prior consent, in close coordination with the Bunge Group, and both groups will agree upon customer plans and product specifications for such customers and segments. To the extent these initial and value-based sales turn into long-term customers and the two groups determine that they wish to transition customer management to the group that did not generate the customer, the JV Companies will pay to each group one half of any distribution fees generated by sales of Products in the Bunge Primary Sales Field to such transitioned customer for three (3) years starting on a transition date agreed by the Parties. Thereafter, the group managing such customer will receive the full distribution fee. The two groups may select separate channels for

27

sub-segments of the Food Field and Feed Field (e.g. confectionary) for agreed periods. For the purposes of Section 7.5(a) and this Section 7.5(b) the Bunge Group hereby consents to the Solazyme Group working (i) with the customers and Products identified in Exhibit E and (ii) for * Products, working to generate demand from the * industry and its customers, and also * for its * Product needs.
(c)    The Parties shall initially have a Joint Primary Sales Arrangement with respect to * Products outside the Bunge Primary Field, High-Oleic Products in the Food Field and coproducts from the production of all Products (collectively, “Joint Primary Products”). The Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group will collaborate to identify specified customers, initial value-based sales and other channel-based initiatives within these fields that are appropriate for each group. Each group will concentrate on customers and segments as to which the other group shall have provided prior consent, in close coordination with the other group, and both groups will agree upon customer plans and product specifications for such customers and segments. If either the Bunge Group or the Solazyme Group fails to satisfy the conditions as set forth in Section 7.5(a)(i) – Section 7.5(a)(iv) as to any Joint Primary Product, then the other group shall be authorized to approach customers and make sales with respect to such Joint Primary Product without the consent of the group that failed to satisfy such conditions. If each group fails to satisfy such conditions as to at least one Joint Primary Product, then the parties shall have a Parallel Primary Sales Arrangement with respect to all Joint Primary Products. To the extent these initial and value-based sales turn into long-term customers and the two groups determine that they wish to transition customer management to the group that did not generate the customer, the JV Companies will pay to each group one half of any distribution fees generated by sales of Joint Primary Products to such transitioned customer for three (3) years starting on a transition date agreed by the Parties. Thereafter, the group managing such customer will receive the full distribution fee.
(d)    Each sales channel party will fund and staff its own sales, marketing, and application development as, in its judgment, is needed to meet its sales targets for the sales described in Section 7.5(a)-(e). The selling party will be paid a distribution fee as defined in the applicable Manufacturing and Supply Agreement.
(e)    The Solazyme Group (or third parties that it designates or assigns its rights to) shall be the sales agent for Encapso™ product, * Products for all fields outside of the Food Field and High-Oleic Products for the Personal Care Field (including sales to * and *).
(f)    For the avoidance of doubt, the sales rights and restrictions in this Section 7.5 apply only to Products and fields to the extent of the JV Companies’ sales rights and do not restrict the Bunge Group or the Solazyme Group to the extent the JV Companies do not have the associated sales rights.

7.5    Utility Supply. BGI agrees that the Bunge Group shall provide certain inputs to the Moema Facility, pursuant to the Utility Supply Agreement, including: (i) water and steam; (ii) electricity, (iii) treatment of effluents, and (iv) certain administrative services in relation to the operation of the Company (as provided in Section 7.1(b)).
7.6    Manufacturing and Supply.
(a)    The Company, in consultation with SB Oils, shall be responsible for determining and establishing an optimal manufacturing platform for Products suitable to meet the short- and long-term production needs of the Business; provided, however, that it is understood and agreed that the Solazyme Group and the Bunge Group shall be responsible for providing substantial expertise, resources and facilities to the Company with respect to such manufacturing efforts.
(b)    If (i) Moema begins supplying SB Oils with Syrup instead of VHP under the Feedstock Supply Agreement and (ii) the cumulative value of SB Oils’ resulting cost savings for any calendar year, expressed as the cumulative total of the Syrup Energy Discount (as defined in the Feedstock Supply Agreement) in the calendar year, is less than the amount paid by SB Oils to Moema for steam for such year, expressed as the cumulative total of the Bagasse Equivalent Price (as defined in the Utility Agreement) paid by SB Oils in the calendar year (the difference between such amounts, the “Syrup/Steam Shortfall”), then the Bunge Group will pay to Solazyme, Inc. 50% of the Syrup/Steam Shortfall within sixty (60) days of the end of the applicable year.
7.7    RBD Services.
(a)    One or more member(s) of the Bunge Group will, as promptly as reasonably practicable given technical and regulatory constraints at any given time, provide RBD services for Products to SB Oils. The services shall be provided, at the election of SB Oils, by doing the RBD processing at one or more facilities of the Bunge Group, on a “cost-plus” basis, with all associated costs (variable, fixed, regulatory, tax, services, changeovers, multiple runs), plus a return on invested capital of Bunge's most recently externally communicated weighted average cost of capital plus *. When SB Oils or the relevant Sales Affiliate determine that it requires RBD services for Products, it shall make a request for services to the Bunge Group who shall then provide a quotation to provide the services as set forth as above.
(b)    The JV Companies will cover any capital costs required to adapt facilities of the member(s) of the Bunge Group for handling Products. The member(s) of the Bunge Group will, at the JV Companies’ cost, adapt such facilities as mutually agreed by the member(s) of the Bunge Group and Solazyme, Inc. To the extent that capital is provided by the JV Companies, such capital will not be included in any calculation of “cost-plus”.

29

(c)    The JV Companies will provide to the member(s) of the Bunge Group involved in providing RBD services, at least ten (10) days prior to the end of each calendar quarter, (i) a quarterly volume forecast on a twelve (12) months rolling basis, and (ii) a firm, binding and committed order for the next succeeding quarter. Notwithstanding the foregoing for the first year after the Effective Date, the JV Companies will provide to the member(s) of the Bunge Group involved in providing RBD services, at least ten (10) days prior to the end of each calendar month, (x) a monthly volume forecast on a twelve (12) months rolling basis, and (ii) a firm, binding and committed order for the next succeeding month. The member(s) of the Bunge Group providing the RBD services will use its/their best efforts to accommodate up to a twenty percent (20%) volume variation from any such firm order.
(d)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) RBD services will be provided for Products made by SB Oils for both the Food Field and for non-Food Fields irrespective of the status of each Product in respect of regulatory food approval, but only to the extent that the fatty acid composition and the RBD processes are reasonable and compatible with current practices in RBD for edible oils, (ii) to the extent commercially required and consistent with the compatibility requirements above, the Bunge Group will provide RBD services only as reasonably warranted by Product sales and (iii) the Bunge Group is not required to RBD more than * of crude Products in their existing Brazilian facilities.
(e)    It is the intent of the Bunge Group to, over the two to three years after the Effective Date expand its RDB capacity to be able to provide all of SB Oils’ RBD services in Brazil at a Bunge Group facility and thus on a “cost-plus” basis as set forth in Section 7.7(a)(i). In furtherance of this intent, the Bunge Group will take the JV Companies’ RBD requirements into account in any future design of the Bunge Group’s oil processing footprint in Brazil, and will consult with the Company to assess such RBD requirements. *.
(f)    If a Party requests that the RBD services contemplated hereunder be further discussed and documented, then BGI and Solazyme, Inc. will use their respective best efforts to cause SB Oils, on the one hand, and the applicable member(s) of the Bunge Group, on the other hand, to negotiate, execute and deliver a services agreement further documenting the services contemplated hereby as may be mutually agreed.
7.8    Logistics. To the extent that a JV Company requests, the Bunge Group will provide the JV Companies with the Joint Venture’s global logistics requirements, at the Bunge Group’s internal rates. The Parties shall evidence the agreement set forth in this Section 7.8 by preparing and executing an applicable scope of work under the Administrative Services Agreement as soon as possible after the Effective Date.
7.9    Covenants Regarding Land Rights for the Moema Facility.

* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



(a)    Certain Affiliates of the Bunge Group, Usina Bom Jardim Açúcar E Álcool Ltda. and Usina Moema Açúcar E Álcool Ltda. (collectively, the “Sellers”), are owners of a parcel of land containing the Moema Facility (the “Land”), which Land shall be transferred by Sellers to SB Oils. Upon closing this transfer and SB Oils receiving a new deed for the Land (the “Deed”), SB Oils will register its ownership of the Land in the Cadastro Ambiental Rural (“CAR”) and notify Sellers of the same so that Sellers may modify their ownership records with the CAR. Each Seller will comply with Applicable Law regarding the maintenance of any legal reserve and/or permanent preservation areas applicable to the Land (the “Preserved Areas”) that are owned by one or both Sellers until either (i) Sellers transfer the Preserved Areas to SB Oils, or (ii) Sellers and SB Oils regularize the Preserved Areas on behalf of SB Oils in accordance with Applicable Law. In addition, Sellers will comply with all requirements of the Deed that grant SB Oils access to cross the property of Sellers to reach the Land if SB Oils cannot access the Land via the main access road currently in use, as further provided in the Deed.
(b)    Following issuance of the Deed, each of the Parties shall use its best efforts to (i) cause SB Oils to grant a mortgage and (ii) issue pro rata corporate guarantees in favor of BNDES in order to replace the existing bank guarantees of SB Oils' debt to BNDES. If such mortgage and/or corporate guarantees do not replace the existing bank guarantees, each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to adjust its pro rata obligations of the existing bank guarantees to reflect a 50/50 split by March 31, 2016.
(c)    In order to facilitate a possible future expansion of the Moema Facility, SB Oils desires to acquire additional property (the “Additional Land”) that is located adjacent to the Land and is currently under a rural partnership with Sellers. Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist SB Oils in (i) entering into a deed or a commitment of purchase and sale for the Additional Land from its owner(s), and (ii) registering such acquisition in accordance with Applicable Law.
7.10    Costs. For the avoidance of doubt, the costs of operating the JV Companies, including the R&D program and other costs of developing and producing Products, shall be borne solely by the JV Companies and no other Party shall be liable for any obligations of or to the JV Companies with respect to such costs except to the extent provided by this Agreement, by another JV Agreement or in another writing signed by such Party.
7.11    Power Supply. The Company, SB Oils and the other Parties, as appropriate, shall work together to duly obtain the approval of the electricity company securing the power supply necessary for the Moema Facility to operate, if necessary.

* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



(a)    Submission of Proposed Annual Plans. Commencing with respect to the annual budget for 2017, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the end of the preceding calendar year, management of the JV Companies shall prepare and deliver to the Board a proposed annual budget (“Annual Budget”) for the immediately following calendar year. Commencing with respect to calendar year 2017, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the end of every third calendar year, management of the JV Companies shall prepare and deliver to the Board a proposed business plan (“Business Plan”) for the immediately following three (3) calendar years.
(b)    Adoption of Annual Budget and Business Plan. Subject to Section 7.12(c), the proposed Annual Budget and Business Plan for the JV Companies shall be adopted, modified or rejected by the Board not less than thirty (30) days prior to the end of the calendar year preceding the applicable year of the Annual Budget, or the first calendar year of the Business Plan (as applicable), subject to extension by action of the Board, and the plans so adopted by the Board at a meeting duly called and held within such time period shall be the Annual Budget and the Business Plan for the Company for such calendar year. For the avoidance of doubt, following Board approval of an Annual Budget, a separate Board approval shall be required to make any Capital Call related to such Annual Budget.
(c)    Failure to Adopt Annual Budget or Business Plan. In the event that the Board fails to approve an Annual Budget or Business Plan within the time period prescribed therefore (or any extension thereof approved by the Board), then:
(i)    the Annual Budget for such calendar year shall be the Annual Budget for the immediately preceding calendar year, except that all items of expense shall be increased by ten percent (10%); and
(ii)    with respect to the Business Plan for such calendar year, Section 6.7 shall apply.
7.13    Information Rights.
(a)    Solazyme, Inc. (or a designated representative) and BGI (or a designated representative) shall be given access to the records (financial, accounting, legal or of any other nature) of any JV Company during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice.
(b)    Members of the Bunge Group (collectively) and the Solazyme Group (collectively) shall each be entitled, once per year per group, and at the sole cost and expense of the applicable group, to audit the books and records of the JV Companies. Each of the Bunge Group and the Solazyme Group agree to co-ordinate such audits in order to minimize the expense and distraction of such audits to the JV Companies and the other Parties. Each time any JV Company delivers to the Solazyme Group any royalty or similar report pursuant to the

32
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



Solazyme Development Agreement, such JV Company shall contemporaneously deliver a copy of such report to BGI.
7.14    Insurance.

Coverage shall provide full replacement value of the Plant(s) and all JV Company-owned and leased equipment. From time to time upon request of a Party, the applicable JV Company shall furnish to the requesting Party evidence of compliance with such insurance requirements and the payment of any related coverage premiums. On an annual basis each JV Company shall provide to Solazyme, Inc. an English version summary of its insurance.
(b)    On an annual basis, or when requested by a Party, the Board shall discuss and review the current insurance coverage or the need for any additional insurance in respect of the assets or business of the JV Companies.
ARTICLE 8
MANUFACTURING FOR THE JOINT VENTURE
8.1    Moema Facility.  Pursuant to the Original Joint Venture Agreement the Company and SB Oils constructed the Moema Facility.
8.2    Additional Plant(s). Subject to the confirmation of the existence of further market potential for the Products and the availability of supply of fermentable sugars, the Parties contemplate approving construction of one or more additional Plant(s), funded in their entirety by the JV Companies or by such other funding mechanism as agreed amongst BGI, Solazyme, Inc. and the JV Companies and in accordance with Section 6.5.
8.3    Right to Meet Additional Market Demand. Notwithstanding the exclusive licenses set forth in the Solazyme Development Agreement and the non-competition restrictions set forth in Section 10.4(a), and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 8.3, if (i) the Solazyme Group demonstrates Profitable Market Demand as contemplated herein and (ii) the JV Companies are determined by the Bunge Group in the manner described below to be unwilling

33
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



or unable to supply such Profitable Market Demand, then the Solazyme Group shall have the right to secure additional manufacturing for the respective Products and meet such Profitable Market Demand while such circumstances exist. In such circumstance the Solazyme Group shall deliver to the Board and the Bunge Group a “Market Demand Notice”, including support that the demand meets the definition of Profitable Market Demand and expressing a desire to meet the Profitable Market Demand if the Bunge Group decides that the JV Companies should not meet such Profitable Market Demand. The Bunge Group shall have thirty (30) days to determine whether the JV Companies should (i) meet the Profitable Market Demand (either by facilitating manufacture of the applicable Products or agreeing to build additional manufacturing capacity to manufacture the applicable Products), (ii) elect to allow the Solazyme Group to meet the Profitable Market Demand or (iii) determine that the Market Demand Notice is deficient. If the Bunge Group does not act within thirty (30) days of the date of the Market Demand Notice, the Bunge Group will be deemed to have allowed the Solazyme Group to meet the Profitable Market Demand while such circumstances set forth above exist. Such allowance (whether explicit or by default) shall cover (as to volume and duration) the expressions of interest provided in the Market Demand Notice.
8.4    Capital Spending Plan. The parties intend to build-out the Moema Facility over time. In furtherance of such expected build-out the Parties intend to manage and fund the build-out based on the achievement of the commercial and technical triggers as set forth in Exhibit F.
8.5    Third Party Technology. The Parties acknowledge that in order to optimize the Joint Venture’s product mix and economics, the JV Companies may be required to source Third-Party technology, product manufacturing licenses or sales rights or enter into tolling agreements with Third Parties if such technology, licenses, rights or agreements offer attractive economics to the JV Companies. Decisions on such arrangements will be made by the Board.
8.6    Manufacturing Allowance.
(a)    Each of the Solazyme Group and the Bunge Group will have a separate right to have SB Oils manufacture products for it at the Moema Facility, provided that each request to manufacture products must be reasonable as to production duration and frequency. This right will be limited to ten percent (10%) of the Moema Facility’s then-available effective (as opposed to nameplate) capacity for Products for each group on a “Cost-Plus” basis. Each group may extend this manufacturing right to up to an additional fifteen percent (15%) of the Moema Facility’s then-available effective capacity for Products on a “Cost-plus-Margin” basis. “Cost” means the total actual variable production cost of the Product, including the cost of feedstock (sugar), other raw materials, variable utilities and other variable costs (but not including overhead, labor, depreciation, facilities, allocated labor, or overhead allocations), including, if applicable, the costs of refining, bleaching and deodorizing the Product, and

34
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



including a credit for the realized value of any co-product of the production of Products to the extent that such realized value is greater than the value of the co-product when sold into a bulk feed application, net of any delivery costs, or otherwise purifying the Product to make it ready for sale from the JV Companies; “Plus” means *; and “Margin” means the greater of * or * (based on actual variable production cost of the products for profitable products manufactured at the Moema Facility, calculated across a reasonable prior period).
(b)    Notwithstanding Section 8.6(a), the Solazyme Group’s manufacturing allowance will be increased by up to 1,000 MT/year after the fourth (4th) anniversary of the Effective Date on a Cost Plus basis, provided such increased manufacturing allowance is used for * Products for the Personal Care Field.
(c)    Notwithstanding Section 8.6(a), the Board may, at its discretion, accept lower margins from either group than those defined in Section 8.6(a).
(d)    The Bunge Group may use its manufacturing allowance for consumer products based on the Company’s manufacturing or sales rights, * Products after the period of exclusivity of the exclusive license to the Company of * Products under the Solazyme Development Agreement, or any other products based on Third-Party technology and rights that the Moema Facility is capable of making with its then-current assets. The Solazyme Group may use its manufacturing allowance for consumer products based on the Company’s manufacturing or sales rights or based on any other products that the Moema Facility is capable of making with its then-current assets.
(e)    The manufacturing allowance rights provided in this Section 8.6 will be subject to production scheduling and available capacity required for licensed product manufacturing and limited by prior commitments of capacity by SB Oils, provided that the SB Oils shall not unreasonably withhold its acceptance of such production commitment. Once accepted, such production commitment will represent a supply commitment for the negotiated duration, to provide supply assurance to the party’s customers, and SB Oils shall not change the scheduling of such production commitment without the advance, written consent of the Person exercising its right to this manufacturing allowance.
8.7    Capacity Expansion for High-Oleic Products.
(a)    If the Solazyme Group receives an offer to enter into a business relationship in which a Third Party will build or expand, or help build or help expand, manufacturing capacity that is focused on High-Oleic Products, or the Solazyme Group is planning to build or expand manufacturing capacity that is focused on High-Oleic Products, the Solazyme Group will provide notice to the Bunge Group in order to enable the Bunge Group to evaluate its interest in discussing participating in the capacity expansion.

35
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



(b)    If, prior to *, the Solazyme Group receives an offer to enter into a business relationship in which a Third Party will build or expand, or help build or help expand, manufacturing capacity that is focused on High-Oleic Products, then the Solazyme Group will provide written notice of such to the Bunge Group with a written summary of the scope of the proposed expansion. The Bunge Group will then have thirty (30) days to provide a written offer to build/expand capacity for the scope of the proposed expansion. If the Bunge Group does not provide a written offer within the 30-day period the Solazyme Group may proceed with the proposed capacity expansion with the Third Party. If the Bunge Group provides an offer within the 30-day period, the Solazyme Group may not proceed with the proposed capacity expansion with the Third Party unless the offer from the Bunge Group is materially inferior to the offer from the Third Party, in the reasonable view of Solazyme, Inc.
(c)    For the avoidance of doubt the notice obligations in subsections (a) or (b) of this Section 8.7 shall not apply to capacity expansion that is simply capable of production of High-Oleic Products but is limited to capacity expansion that is focused on production of High-Oleic Products.

ARTICLE 9
BUY OUT RIGHTS
9.1    Cumulative Capital Contributions. If the Parties have made cumulative Capital Contributions (excluding contributions relating to Project Plans) aggregating * (the “Contribution Cap”) or more during the Forecast Period, then either BGI or Solazyme, Inc. may provide the other Notice Party with a notice (an “Article 9 Notice”) and proceed with the procedures set forth in Section 9.2. Either Notice Party may send an Article 9 Notice to the other Notice Party based on this Section 9.1 at any time after the Notice Party becomes aware that the Contribution Cap has been exceeded but before *.

9.2    Termination/Buy-Out Procedure.
(a)    An Article 9 Notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.1 shall state (i) that the sending Notice Party desires to terminate this Agreement, and (ii) upon such termination, whether the sending Notice Party elects to buy-out the receiving Notice Party’s interests in the Company. Within thirty (30) days after receiving an Article 9 Notice pursuant to Section 9.1, a receiving Notice Party may send a notice (an “Article 9 Response”) to the sending Notice Party that makes one of the elections set forth in, as applicable, Section 9.2(b) or Section 9.2(c).
(b)    If an Article 9 Notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.1 contains an election to buy-out the interests of the receiving Notice Party:
(i)    If within thirty (30) days after the date of such Article 9 Notice the receiving Notice Party sends an Article 9 Response that rejects such buy-out proposal, then this Agreement and the Company will continue.
(ii)    If within thirty (30) days after the date of such Article 9 Notice the receiving Notice Party sends an Article 9 Response that consents to such buy-out proposal, or the receiving Notice Party fails to send an Article 9 Response within thirty (30) days after the date of the Article 9 Notice, then the Notice Party that sent the Article 9 Notice will have the rights set forth under Section 9.2(e) if it is Solazyme, Inc. or the rights set forth under Section 9.2(f) if it is BGI.
(c)    If an Article 9 Notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.1 does not contain an election to buy-out the interests of the receiving Notice Party, the sending Notice Party will not

have any further rights pursuant to Section 9.1 with regard to the triggering events underlying the Article 9 Notice after sending such Article 9 Notice and:
(i)    If the original receiving Notice Party provides an Article 9 Response that contains an election to buy-out the interests of the original sending Notice Party, then the original receiving Notice Party will have the rights and obligations set forth under Section 9.2(e) if it is Solazyme, Inc. or the rights and obligations set forth under Section 9.2(f) if it is BGI.
(ii)    If the original receiving Notice Party sends an Article 9 Response that does not contain an election to buy-out the interests of the original sending Notice Party, then such original receiving Notice Party will not have any further rights pursuant to Section 9.1 after sending such Article 9 Response, this Agreement will be terminated as of the date of receipt of the Article 9 Response, and the Company will be dissolved.
(d)    An Article 9 Notice delivered pursuant to Section 4.5(b) shall either:
(i)    state that the sending Notice Party elects to buy-out the receiving Notice Party’s interests in the Company and thereafter the Notice Party that sent the Article 9 Notice will have the rights set forth under Section 9.2(e) if it is Solazyme, Inc. or the rights set forth under Section 9.2(f) if it is BGI; or
(ii)    state that the sending Notice Party does not elect to buy-out the receiving Notice Party’s interests in the Company and this Agreement will be terminated as of the date that is thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Article 9 Notice and the Company will be dissolved.
(e)    If Solazyme, Inc. is exercising buy-out rights pursuant to Section 9.2(b), (c) or (d), then Solazyme, Inc. and BGI shall negotiate for thirty (30) days (beginning on the date that such buy-out rights come into existence) the terms of purchase by Solazyme, Inc. (or its designee), at fair market value, of Bunge Netherlands’ Percentage Interest in the Company. If the parties reach mutual agreement on such terms, Solazyme, Inc. (or its designee) shall purchase Bunge Netherland’s Percentage Interest in the Company as agreed.

40


(a)    Multiple Independent Valuations. Fair market value shall be determined by three (3) independent, neutral appraisers who are each expert in the valuation of businesses reasonably similar to the JV Companies. The appraisers shall be selected as follows: each of Solazyme, Inc. and BGI shall select one appraiser, those two appraisers shall then select a third appraiser. Each Party shall provide to the appraisers such documents as the appraisers may direct (after consulting with Solazyme, Inc. and BGI), and the appraisers shall each prepare an independent appraisal report setting forth what that appraiser believes to be the fair market value of, as applicable, the equity of the Company being sold or the assets to be sold, together with a written explanation setting forth the specific reasons for its position. No oral presentations shall be permitted. The fair market value of the equity, or assets, in question shall be the median value of the three appraisals. The costs of the appraisal, including administrative and appraisers’ fees, shall be shared equally by Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands, and each Party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the appraisal. The appraisers shall be directed that any appraisal shall be completed within two (2) months from the filing of notice of a request for such appraisal. The appraisal proceedings and the decision shall be considered Confidential Information of both Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands. The Parties agree that the decision shall be the sole, exclusive and binding decision among them regarding determination of fair market value if the acquiring Party agrees to proceed with the applicable buy-out.
(b)    Best Price Valuation. Fair market value shall be determined by one (1) independent, neutral appraiser who is an expert in the valuation of businesses reasonably similar to the JV Companies. The appraiser shall be selected as follows: each of Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands shall select one (1) independent, neutral appraiser who is an expert in the valuation of businesses such as the JV Companies; those two appraisers shall then select a third appraiser who will solely determine the fair market value. The fair market value shall be determined as follows: each of Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands shall provide to the appraiser a report setting forth what that Party believes to be the fair market value of the equity or assets to be sold, as applicable, together with a written explanation setting forth the specific reasons for its position. No oral presentations shall be permitted. The appraiser shall then pick the valuation submitted by either Solazyme, Inc. or Bunge Netherlands as the fair market value of the equity, or assets to be sold depending on which value the appraiser believes is closest to the true fair market value. The appraiser shall have no power to choose any value other than one of the values provided by Solazyme, Inc. or Bunge Netherlands as the fair market value. The costs of the appraisal, including administrative and appraiser’s fees, shall be shared equally by Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands, and each such Party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the appraisal. The appraiser shall be directed that the determination shall be completed within two (2) months from the filing of notice of a request for such appraisal. The appraisal proceedings and the decision shall be considered Confidential

41


Information of both Solazyme, Inc. and Bunge Netherlands. The Parties agree that the decision shall be the sole, exclusive and binding decision among them regarding determination of fair market value if the acquiring Party agrees to proceed with the applicable buy-out.

(iii)    If the Remaining Party makes a Qualifying Offer, the Transferring Party may only transfer the interests subject to the Section 12.2(a) Transfer Notice to a Third Party for all cash consideration greater than that offered by the Remaining Party in the Qualifying Offer.

Such sale shall be consummated within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Election Notice, except that such time period shall be extended as required to obtain necessary governmental approvals including any necessary approvals of antitrust authorities.
(iv)    If the Remaining Party does not deliver an Election Notice within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Section 12.2(b) Transfer Notice, the Transferring Party may transfer the Offered Interest to the Direct Competitor on the terms set forth in the Section 12.2(b) Transfer Notice; provided, however, that if the Transferring Party has not transferred the Offered Interest within one (1) year of delivering the Section 12.2(b) Transfer Notice to the Remaining Party, this right of first refusal procedure shall again be followed if the Transferring Party wishes to transfer the Offered Interest to a Direct Competitor.

(b)    The other Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the Section 12.3(a) Notice to either elect to purchase the Target Party’s Percentage Interest as offered in the Section 12.3(a) Notice or waive its rights under this Section 12.3. If the other Party has not responded in writing in such 30-day period the other Party shall be deemed to have waived its rights under this Section 12.3 (such date of notice, or expiry of the 30-day period, the “Section 12.3(b) Response Date”).
(c)    If fair market value is to be set through Section 9.3(b), the Parties shall use their best efforts to obtain the valuation from the appraiser within ten (10) Business Days of the date of the Section 12.3(a) Response Date. In particular:

(vi)    Any purchase of a Target Party’s Percentage Interest pursuant to this Section 12.3 shall occur simultaneously with, and contingent upon, the closing of the applicable Change in Control transaction, or as soon as practicable thereafter if the procedures set forth in this Section 12.3 have not been completed as of such closing, except that such time period shall be extended as required to obtain necessary governmental approvals including any necessary approvals of antitrust authorities. Upon such closing Subsections 9.2(e)(i)-(xi) shall apply (if Bunge Netherlands is bought out) or Subsections 9.2(f)(i)-(vi) shall apply (if Solazyme, Inc. is bought out).

(c)    In the event that equity interests in, or all or substantially all of the assets of, SB Oils are being conveyed to a Third Party that is not a Direct Competitor of the Bunge Group or the Solazyme Group, and this Agreement has otherwise terminated (such as through a Company liquidation in which SB Oils is sold as a going concern), the Parties shall use reasonable efforts to include in such transfer documentation, a requirement that any sales of interests in SB Oils by the acquiring Third Party to a Direct Competitor of the Bunge Group or the Solazyme Group shall be subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the group to whom the transferee is a Direct Competitor as provided in Section 12.2(b) (making appropriate substitution for the applicable parties).

ARTICLE 19
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
19.1    Negotiation. In the event of any controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with any provision of this Agreement, or the rights or obligations of the Parties hereunder, the Parties shall try to settle their differences amicably between themselves. Any Party may initiate such informal dispute resolution by sending written notice of the dispute to the other Parties, and within ten (10) days after such notice appropriate representatives of the Solazyme Group, Bunge Group and, if applicable, the JV Companies shall meet for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations. If such representatives are unable to resolve promptly such disputed matter, it shall be referred to the Chief Executive Officer of Solazyme, Inc., to the Vice President of BGI, and, if applicable, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company for discussion and resolution. If such personnel are unable to resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days of initiating such negotiations, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, such dispute shall proceed to mediation as provided under Section 19.2.
19.2    Mediation.
(a)    If a dispute arises out of or relates to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, and if the dispute cannot be settled through negotiation, then the Parties agree before resorting to resolution pursuant to any other means, to first try in good faith to settle the dispute by non-binding mediation with a neutral mediator; provided, however, that if such mediation has not occurred within sixty (60) days after a written request for mediation by any Party, then any Party may proceed to resolution pursuant to other means. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a decision is not reached as a result of the discussions and mediation contemplated by this Article 19, the Board will be deemed not to have authorized the matter that was subject to the dispute resolution in Article 19 and the Company and its Affiliates shall not take the actions that were proposed to be approved by the dispute resolution pursuant to Article 19.
(b)    Each Party agrees not to use the period or pendency of the mediation to disadvantage the other Parties procedurally or otherwise. No statements made by a Party during the mediation may be used by the other Parties or referred to during any subsequent proceedings.
(c)    Each Party has the right to pursue provisional relief from any court, such as attachment, preliminary injunction, replevin, etc. to avoid irreparable harm, maintain the status quo, or preserve the subject matter of the dispute, even though mediation has not been commenced or completed.
19.3    Language of Dispute Resolution. All proceedings under this Article 19 (including pursuant to any other means of dispute resolution) shall be conducted in the English

language and all documents exchanged among the Parties or submitted in the context of a proceeding under this Article 19 (including pursuant to any other means of dispute resolution) shall be in English or shall be accompanied with a certified English translation of the original document.
19.4    Material Breach under Section 17.1(vii) and (viii). Notwithstanding this Article 19, the determination of whether a material breach has occurred under Section 17.1(vii) or Section 17.1(viii) shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with Section 17.2 and the Parties are not required to proceed through the dispute resolution steps in this Article 19 prior to commencing such arbitration.

20.2    Remedies for Breach. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that any Party would otherwise have at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. Specifically, each Party acknowledges that a breach of Sections 7.9, 10.3, 10.4 or 10.5, or Article 12, could cause immediate and irreparable harm that cannot be compensated by monetary damages and therefore each Party agrees that any other Party shall be entitled to specific performance of the obligations set forth in Sections 7.9, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 and Article 12. Subject to Article 19, if a member of the Bunge Group has breached a provision of this Agreement that has caused damage to a JV Company, any member of the Solazyme Group is entitled to bring an action to collect 50.1% (or such other Percentage Interest then held by the Solazyme Group) of such damages suffered by the JV Company. Subject to Article 19, if a member of the Solazyme Group has breached a provision of this Agreement that has caused damage to a JV Company, any member of the Bunge Group is entitled to bring an action to collect 49.9% (or such other Percentage Interest then held by the Bunge Group) of such damages suffered by the JV Company.
20.3    Relationship of the Parties. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be deemed to constitute a partnership, agency or employer-employee relationship between the Parties. No Party shall incur any debts or make any commitments for any other non-Affiliated Party.
20.4    Obligations of the JV Companies. Whenever it is contemplated in a JV Agreement that a JV Company shall take an action, or refrain from taking an action, Solazyme, Inc. and BGI shall cause their representative employees, representatives and Affiliates to cause the applicable JV Company to take such action, or refrain from taking such action.
20.5    Assignment. Except as expressly provided in Article 12, neither this Agreement nor any interest hereunder shall be assignable, nor any other obligation delegable, by a Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided, however, that a Party may assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement without such prior written consent (a) to any Affiliate or (b) to any successor in interest by way of merger, sale of equity, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets provided that such successor agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as if it were the transferring Party and provided that such transfer complies with Section 12.3, if applicable. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties. Any assignment or other transfer not in accordance with this Section 20.5 shall be void.

72
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



20.6    Further Assurances. Each Party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver such further instruments and to do all such other reasonable acts as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.
20.7    Force Majeure. No Party shall be liable to another Party for failure or delay in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement for the time and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by acts of god, earthquake, fire, flood, war, accident, explosion, breakdowns or labor trouble; embargoes or other import or export restrictions; shortage of or inability to obtain energy, equipment, transportation or feedstock; or good faith compliance with any regulation, direction or request (whether valid or invalid) made by any governmental authority or any other reason that is beyond the control of the respective Party. The Party affected by force majeure shall provide the other Parties with full particulars thereof as soon as it becomes aware of the same (including its best estimate of the likely extent and duration of the interference with its activities) and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to overcome the difficulties created thereby and to resume performance of its obligations as soon as practicable.
20.8    Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflict of laws principles. Except as provided in Section 17.2, the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the courts of the United States of America located in New York, New York for any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and agrees not to commence any action, suit or proceeding relating thereto except in such courts, (ii) agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by United States registered or certified mail, to a Party’s address in effect pursuant to Section 20.1, shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court, (iii) waives any objection to personal jurisdiction and the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such courts, and (iv) waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) a Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive or similar relief in the courts of any jurisdiction to protect such Party’s rights and interests ancillary to such litigation, and (b) any action between the Parties regarding the infringement or validity of any non-U.S. Patent may be brought by either Party in any court or tribunal having jurisdiction over the Parties and such patent matters outside the U.S.
20.9    Tolling of Time Periods. In the event that a controversy or claim has been raised and is in the process of dispute resolution in accordance with Article 19, any applicable time period governing the underlying controversy or claim set forth in this Agreement or in any

73
* Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.



other JV Agreement shall be tolled pending the outcome of the resolution process, after which the time period shall again begin to run.
20.10    Severability. When possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement. The Parties shall make a good faith effort to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid one that conforms as nearly as possible with the original intent of the Parties.
20.11    Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for the rights of Indemnified Parties set forth in Article 15, all rights, benefits and remedies under this Agreement are solely intended for the benefit of the Parties and their permitted assigns, and no Third Party shall have any rights whatsoever to (i) enforce any obligation contained in this Agreement; (ii) seek a benefit or remedy for any breach of this Agreement; or (iii) take any other action relating to this Agreement under any legal theory, including but not limited to, actions in contract, tort (including but not limited to negligence, gross negligence and strict liability), or as a defense, setoff or counterclaim to any action or claim brought or made by any of the Parties.
20.12    Fees; Brokers. Each Party shall bear its own legal fees and expenses in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein. Each Party represents and warrants to the other Parties that it has not engaged or been involved with any broker or finder in connection with the Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein, and each Party agrees to indemnify and hold the other Parties harmless from and against any broker’s, finder’s or similar fees for which it is responsible.
20.13    Advice of Counsel. Each Party has consulted counsel of their choice regarding this Agreement, and each Party acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement shall not be deemed to have been drafted by one Party or another and shall be construed accordingly.
20.14    Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement (including the Exhibits) together with the other JV Agreements, taken together, collectively represent the entire understanding and agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of, and the transactions contemplated by, such agreements. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed within the four corners of this Agreement; provided, however, that reasonable efforts shall be made to interpret and give full force and effect to the provisions of this Agreement in a manner that is not inconsistent with the interpretation given to the relevant provisions of the other JV Agreements and that gives full force and effect to all relevant provisions of the JV Agreements in their entirety. Except as provided in the next sentence, modifications or amendments of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid and effective only if made in

74

writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of each Party. In addition, if members of the Solazyme Group and members of the Bunge Group own, in the aggregate, one hundred percent (100%) of the Percentage Interests, this Agreement may be modified or amended in writing by a duly authorized officer of Solazyme and BGI (without the need for execution by the other Parties).
20.15    Waiver. The failure or delay of a Party to enforce or to exercise, at any time for any period of time, any provisions hereof or any right or remedy hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of such provision or right or remedy or of the right of such Party thereafter to enforce or exercise the same; provided, however, that such right or remedy is not time-barred or otherwise precluded by Applicable Law or by a writing expressly waiving such right or remedy and signed by that Party seeking to assert such right or remedy. The written waiver by the other Parties of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement by a Party shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.
20.16    Translation. This Agreement is in the English language only, which language shall be controlling in all respects, and all versions hereof in any other language shall be for accommodation only and shall not be binding upon the Parties. All communications and notices to be made or given pursuant to this Agreement, and any dispute proceeding related to or arising hereunder, shall be in the English language. If there is a discrepancy between any translation of this Agreement and this English language version of this Agreement, this English language version of this Agreement shall prevail.
20.17    Export, Import and Regulatory Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all obligations of the Parties and their Affiliates are subject to prior compliance with U.S. export regulations, Brazilian and Uruguayan import regulations, and any other Applicable Law. By way of example and not of limitation, all Parties shall conduct all activities contemplated by this Agreement in compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and any similar Applicable Law that: (a) prohibit offering payments to government officials in order to obtain or retain business or to secure an improper advantage; and (b) require that all transactions be accurately reflected in books and records. Each of the Parties shall each use its reasonable efforts to obtain such approvals for its own activities. Each Party shall cooperate with the other Parties and shall provide help to the other Parties as reasonably necessary to obtain any required approvals.
20.18    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signature pages received by facsimile transmission or PDF shall be deemed the same as signature pages with original signatures.
20.19    Mutual Release.

(a)    Each of the Solazyme Group and the Bunge Group, on behalf of itself, its predecessors, successors, direct and indirect parent companies, direct and indirect subsidiary companies, companies under common control with any of the foregoing, assigns, and successors-in-interest, and all persons acting by, through, under, or in concert with them, hereby releases and forever discharges the other group, together with its predecessors, successors, direct and indirect parent companies, direct and indirect subsidiary companies, companies under common control with any of the foregoing assigns, and successors in interest, and all persons acting by, through, under, or in concert with them, of and from any and all debts, claims, potential claims, demands, actions, causes of action, potential causes of action, rights, obligations, damages, attorneys’ fees, costs, and liabilities of any and every kind or nature whatsoever, at law or in equity, past, present, or future, known or unknown, direct or indirect, asserted or unasserted, fixed or contingent, whether contemplated or not, whether based on a tort, contract, contribution, indemnification, statute, or any other type of claim or recovery, and whether for compensatory, consequential, incidental, statutory, punitive, or other damages, which that Party has, may have, or had against the other Party as of the Effective Date arising out of this Agreement, the other JV Agreements or connected in any way with the Initial Joint Venture or the interactions of the Parties up to the Effective Date.
(b)    Each of the Solazyme Group and the Bunge Group is fully aware of the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:
“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
Each of the Solazyme Group and the Bunge Group knowingly and voluntarily waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, and any other statutes or common law principle of similar effect, assumes the risk of any injury, change of circumstances or facts, loss, or damage that may arise from such waiver, and further agrees that this waiver is a material aspect of the consideration for entering into this Agreement.
