Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
As previously disclosed, on April 26, 2017, ChromaDex Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain purchasers named therein (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue up to $25.0 million of its Common Stock at a purchase price of $2.60 per share in three tranches of approximately $3.5 million, $16.4 million and $5.1 million, respectively.
 
On May 24, 2017, the Company and the Purchasers entered into a First Amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “First Amendment”) to provide for an allocation of the number of shares each Purchaser may purchase in the second tranche under the Purchase Agreement (the “Second Tranche”) and the third tranche under the Purchase Agreement.
 
On May 24, 2017, the Second Tranche closed, pursuant to which the Company issued 6,303,814 shares of its Common Stock to the Purchasers at a purchase price of $2.60 per share.
 
The foregoing description of the First Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 99.1. On May 25, 2017, the Company also issued a press release announcing the closing of the Second Tranche. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.
 
The shares of the Company’s common stock sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (the “Shares”) are not registered under the Securities Act of the 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. The Company has relied on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder. In connection with the Purchasers’ execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers represented to the Company that they are each an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act and that the securities being purchased by them are being acquired solely for their own account and for investment purposes and not with a view to the future sale or distribution.
