NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

 

1.      Defined Terms; Construction. All capitalized terms used, but not defined in this Amendment have the same meaning as in the Agreement. References herein to a “Section” of the Agreement include the corresponding “Article” of the Agreement.

 

2.      Amendment to Section 2.A(i)(d). Pursuant to Section 9.B of the Agreement, Section 2.A(i)(d) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following:

 

“(d)       a royalty-bearing (to be negotiated as described in the prior to last sentence below), right and license under the AMYRIS Licensed IP in each case that is necessary or, in the case of the AMYRIS Farnesene Production IP, useful to Manufacture Licensed Products (x) within the Territory and (y) outside the Territory (Subject to Section 2.E(iv) below), but, in each case, solely for the purposes of Manufacturing, importing, offering for sale, and selling such Licensed Products in the Territory for use in the Field. The license granted under subsection (x) shall be co-exclusive with AMYRIS while the license in (y) shall be non-exclusive. Prior to the Licensed Products first being Manufactured per the license in this Section 2.A(i)(d), TOTAL and AMYRIS will, in good faith, negotiate commercially reasonable terms on a “most favored nation basis” for royalties to be paid to AMYRIS by TOTAL on the sale of such Manufactured Licensed Product in the Territory.

Execution VersionExhibit 10.04

 

“(d) The Parties intend that each escrow agreement governing the Escrowed Materials is “an agreement supplementary to” this Agreement, as that phrase is used in section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. TOTAL will have the right to a permanent release of the Escrowed Materials from the Escrow Agent to TOTAL upon the occurrence of any of the following:

 

(i) at such time as TOTAL is entitled to exercise the license granted in Section 2.A(i)(b);

(ii) upon the filing of a case under the Bankruptcy Code by or against AMYRIS or any Co-Licensor (as such term is defined in Section 7.E.2.);

(iii) if the Bankrupt Entity rejects the Agreement in a case under the Bankruptcy Code and TOTAL has made the 365(n) Election (as such term is defined in Section 2.B.(iii)); or

(iv) if AMYRIS or an AMYRIS Affiliate is a Bankrupt Entity, on the written request by TOTAL to the trustee or debtor in possession in such bankruptcy case, and to Escrow Agent, to provide the Escrowed Materials as contemplated pursuant to Bankruptcy Code section 365(n)(4).”
