If at the end of the Cure Period, the Breaching Party can demonstrate that it is actively seeking to remedy such material breach, then at the Breaching Party’s request and with the consent of the Non-Breaching Party (not to be unreasonably withheld), the Non-Breaching Party shall grant an additional forty-five (45) days for the Breaching Party to remedy such breach.
12.3    Insolvency or Bankruptcy. To the extent permitted under Applicable Law, either Party may terminate this Agreement, (a) if, at any time, the other Party files in any court or agency pursuant to any statute or regulation of any state or country, a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or for an arrangement or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee of the Party or of substantially all of its assets, or (b) if the other Party is served with an involuntary petition against it, filed in any insolvency proceeding, and such petition shall not be dismissed within ninety (90) days after the filing thereof, or (c) if the other Party shall propose or be a party to any dissolution or liquidation, or (d) if the other Party shall make an assignment of substantially all of its assets for the benefit of creditors. Each Party agrees to give the other Party prompt notice of the foregoing events giving rise to termination under this Section 12.3. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to any section of this Agreement are and shall otherwise be deemed to be for purposes of Section 365(n) of Title 11, United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined in Section 101(35A) of the Bankruptcy Code. The Parties shall retain and may fully exercise all of their respective rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code. All materials required to be delivered by the non-bankrupt Party under this Agreement (including all manufacturing information) shall be considered to be “embodiments” of such intellectual property for purposes of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. Upon the bankruptcy of any Party, the non-bankrupt Party shall further be entitled to a complete duplicate of, or complete access to, any intellectual property licensed to the non-bankrupt Party, and such, if not already in its possession, shall be promptly delivered to the non-bankrupt Party, unless the bankrupt Party elects to continue, and continues, to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement. All written agreements entered into in connection with the Parties’ performance under this Agreement from time to time shall be considered agreements “supplementary” to this Agreement for purposes of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code.
12.4    Merck Termination at Will. At any time after Wave 1 (and receipt by Codexis of the Milestone Payment associated with the Completion of Wave 1 as contemplated by Section 7.3), Merck may terminate this Agreement in its entirety at any time upon providing ninety (90) days’ written notice to Codexis at any time and for any reason or for no reason at all. In such event, Merck shall pay to Codexis all reasonable non-cancellable and non-terminable costs incurred by Codexis upon such event of termination. If Merck terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 12.4 prior to receipt by Codexis of the Milestone Payment associated with the Completion of Wave 2 as contemplated by Section 7.3, in addition to the provisions of Section 12.6.2, Merck shall pay to Codexis the applicable termination payment set forth in this Section 12.4.

Exhibit 1.20
Codexis Core Technology
The enzyme optimization process starts by identifying genes that code for enzymes known to have the general type of catalytic reactivity for a desired chemical reaction. Typically, we identify gene sequences in published databases and then synthesize candidate genes having those sequences. Using a variety of biotechnology tools, we diversify these genes by introducing mutations, giving rise to changes in the enzymes for which they encode. The methods for diversifying these genes, and types of diversity being tested, often vary over the course of an enzyme optimization program. For finding initial diversity, methods typically include random mutagenesis and site-directed (included structure-guided) mutagenesis. We also test mutational variations that distinguish related enzymes among different organisms. Once we have identified potentially beneficial mutations, we test combinations of these mutations in libraries made using our proprietary gene recombination methodologies, gene shuffling and multiplexed gene SOEing, or Splicing by Overlap Extension.

With our proprietary gene shuffling methodology, we generate libraries of genes that have random combinations of the mutations we are testing. The pool of genes is used to transform host cells, which entails introducing the various genes, one by one, into host cells. These cells are then segregated and grown into colonies. Cells from individual colonies are cultured in high throughput to produce the enzyme encoded by the shuffled gene in those cells. The enzymes are then screened in high throughput using test conditions relevant to the desired process. The screening results identify individual shuffled genes that produce improved enzymes having combinations of beneficial mutations and weed out enzymes having detrimental ones. Using different test conditions and/or different analytical methods, we can identify variant enzymes that exhibit various improved performance characteristics, such as stability, activity and selectivity, under conditions relevant to the desired chemical process.

In the next step in our optimization process, we use our proprietary software tool, ProSAR™, to analyze protein sequence-activity relationships. ProSAR™ aids in identifying specific gene and enzyme mutations that are beneficial, neutral or detrimental with respect to the desired performance characteristics. Earlier directed evolution methods did not separately evaluate individual mutations in libraries of variants which carry multiple mutations, where beneficial and detrimental performance characteristics may be mixed in an individual gene or enzyme. Capitalizing on the advent of inexpensive gene sequencing, we are able to determine which particular mutations are present in the genes and proteins we have screened. Our ProSAR™ bioinformatics software relates the screening results to the mutations and ranks the individual mutations with regard to their degree of benefit or detriment, relative to whichever process parameter(s) the screening tested. Using that information, we can bias the pool of mutational diversity in the next iteration to further the accumulation of beneficial diversity and cancel out detrimental diversity in the individual genes in the resulting shuffled library. The ProSAR™ results also help us develop ideas about new diversity to test. ProSAR™, combined with efficient gene synthesis and high quality library generation methods, has led to a significant increase in the efficiency and speed of enzyme improvement and optimization.

In another step of our optimization process, we take the best variants we have identified and prepare enough of each to test in the desired chemical process at laboratory scale, for in-process confirmation. This optimization routine is done iteratively, typically adding new diversity to the pool in each iteration. The gene that codes for the best performing enzyme in one iteration is used as the starting gene for the next iteration of shuffling and screening. As the enzymes improve over these iterations, the screening conditions are made increasingly more stringent. In this way, enzymes are rapidly optimized until all in-process performance requirements have been achieved and the economic objectives for the desired process have been met.





Multiplexed gene SOEing is our proprietary methodology for rapidly generating gene variants. Using multiplexed gene SOEing, we rapidly generate collections of individual gene variants that have predetermined, as opposed to random, combinations of mutations we are testing. It is based on a biotechnology technique, which we refer to as SOEing, generally used to make a hybrid, or spliced, gene from fragments of two genes and/or to introduce a specific mutation into a splice between fragments of one gene. We have automated the process to make robotically, in parallel, one hundred to several hundred variants, each with a predetermined combination of the mutations we are testing. The variants are introduced into host cells, and the encoded enzyme is produced and screened in high throughput, as described above.

Using multiplexed gene SOEing, we can test many mutations and combinations thereof in parallel, and because the mutation incorporation is controlled and predetermined before screening, as opposed to random incorporation and selection after screening, the resulting data set can be more optimal for ProSAR™ analysis.

We believe using multiplexed gene SOEing to survey many mutations quickly, followed by ProSAR™-driven shuffling of beneficial mutations, is a particularly effective approach, providing rapid gains in enzyme performance.

(a)    the making, having made, using and selling of reagents, instruments and services for the diagnostics and research supply markets, only as follows: (a) clinical and diagnostic tests, including those conducted to identify genetic disease predisposition, genetic or other disease conditions, and infectious or pathogenic agents, as well as those conducted for other medical, agricultural or veterinary purposes; (b) tests for analytical/bioanalytical purposes, including those conducted for biomedical, chemical, or medical research or treatment purposes, for environmental purposes, and for forensic purposes, including paternity, maternity or identity tests; and (c) sequencing and sequence analysis of nucleic acids or other biological polymers for any purposes; but excluding (i) the use of a reagent, other than a nucleic acid array, that specifically binds to selected cells, organs or tissue, and that is sold for medical use in procedures to image selected cells, organs or tissue, which procedure is carried out inside the body of an animal or human, and that requires FDA approval, and (ii) the sale of products and performance of services requiring a license under the In-Licensed Patents, to identify compounds that bind to receptors for use as pharmaceuticals;
(b)    any (i) amino acid (including any natural, synthetic, modified or other amino acid analogue) chain that is a human or humanized protein, or any variant, homology, derivative, mutant or fragment thereof, and (ii) any molecule described in subsection (i) that is conjugated or otherwise coupled to any other molecule, in each of cases (i) and (ii) expressly including (iii)(A) any amino acid (including any natural, synthetic, modified or other amino acid analogue) chain that is a cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen 4 or any variant, homolog, derivative, mutant or fragment thereof, and (B) any molecule described in subsection (iii)(A) that is conjugated or otherwise coupled to any other molecule, and (iv)(A) any amino acid (including any natural, synthetic, modified or other amino acid analogue) chain that is a human or animal protein or any variant, homolog, derivative, mutant or fragment of the foregoing, and (B) any molecule described in subsection (iv)(A) that is conjugated or otherwise coupled to any other molecule, and any pharmaceutical products that contain any of the foregoing as an ingredient;
(c)    any formulation containing one or more antigens (or a nucleic acid sequence encoding an Antigen) in the form of (a) an infectious agent (e.g., bacteria, viruses, parasite, protozoa) whether live, attenuated or dead, (b) protein(s), (c) nucleic acid(s), (d) cells, spores and vectors (i.e., viruses or virus-like particles, liposomes, beads or other substrates for Antigen presentation), (e) fragments of any of the foregoing, or (f) a combination of any of the preceding, which formulation is administered or is intended to be administered to induce an Antigen-Specific Response in the human or animal recipient to at least one such antigen for the prevention of the onset of, or treatment of, a disease state, symptom or condition in humans or animals caused by an infectious agent; where “Antigen” means a molecule (e.g., protein, nucleic acid, polypeptide, peptide, carbohydrate, glycoprotein, glycolipid or any combination of the foregoing) that is produced naturally by, or is derived in whole or in part from, an infectious agent (e.g., bacteria, viruses, parasite, protozoa) that produces an Antigen-Specific Response to such molecule in a human or animal recipient (but excluding any molecule that is derived from, in whole or in part, any human gene or protein); and “Antigen-Specific Response” means an immune state resulting from the modulation of activity (i.e., an




increase, decrease or qualitatively different activity) or one or more lymphoid cells (e.g., B cells, NK cells, T cells or professional antigen-presenting cells, such as monocytes, macrophages, Langerhans cells, dendritic cells) following the administration of a stimulus, where such immune state is induced in a human or animal recipient to an Antigen that is specifically directed to the subject Antigen;
(d)    the development, production and/or sale of any and all polypeptides more than twelve (12) amino acids in length, and the development of organisms and vectors (including without limitation plant vectors and plant hosts) for the expression of such polypeptides, in the areas of (a) processes for textile or garment production, (b) processes for the production of leather, (c) cleaning processes or cleaning products, (d) starch processing, (e) food production processes, (f) animal feed processing, (g) personal care processes, excluding pharmaceutical products and oral, topical and intravaginal medications, (g) the processing of wood, paper, pulp and derived lignin and cellulose, (i) oil drilling, (j) dyestuffs and dyeing processes, (k) electronics industry waste water treatment, (l) detoxification of pesticides, chemical weapons and biological weapons, (m) utilization of industrial waste or co-products to generate energy, compost or industrial raw materials including fermentable substrates for e.g. citric acid production from agricultural waste, (n) polymer production, modification or processing of polymers (tetramers of higher) from monomers (including polymers made by addition of dimers or trimers for reactions proceeding to completion in the same reactor), and the enzymatic modification of chemically synthesized polymers, (o) waste water treatment, sewage sludge treatment or cleanup of contaminated soil, (p) synthesis of fuels including bio-diesel and hydrogen, and (q) bioremediation of water, soil and municipal waste, including without limitation biological waste, sewage and sludge (including without limitation biological waste treatment and cleaning of sewer and drain pipes).

Codexis Announces CodeEvolver Technology Transfer and License Agreement with Merck
Codexis to Receive $5 Million in Upfront Payment
Codexis to Hold Conference Call on [Day/Date] at [xx:xx a.m./p.m.] Eastern Time
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. (August XX, 2015) – Codexis, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDXS), a leading developer of biocatalysts for the pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries, announces the signing of a CodeEvolver® platform technology license agreement with Merck, known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, through a subsidiary. This transaction marks the second CodeEvolver licensing agreement between Codexis and a major pharmaceutical company and advances the technology’s business model of multiple sources of revenue.

Under the terms of the agreement, Codexis has granted Merck a non-exclusive license to use Codexis’ proprietary CodeEvolver protein engineering platform technology to develop novel enzymes for use in the manufacture of Merck’s pharmaceutical products. Upon completion of the technology transfer a Codexis’ CodeEvolver protein engineering platform will be located at a Merck research site.

Codexis is eligible to receive up to $18 million over approximately the next 15 to 24 months, $5 million of which will be paid upon the signing of this agreement and an additional $13 million subject to the satisfactory completion of certain technology transfer milestones. Codexis will also be eligible to receive payments of up to maximum of $15 million for each pharmaceutical ingredient (API) using novel enzymes developed by Merck using the CodeEvolver technology and used for commercial manufacturing purposes.

“This licensing transaction builds upon our productive eight-year relationship with Merck and further validates the ability of CodeEvolver to effectively and cost-efficiently improve certain manufacturing processes,” stated John Nicols, President and CEO of Codexis. “We view licensing agreements involving our CodeEvolver technology such as this one with Merck as an attractive component of our business model. It allows us to monetize our core technology, while continuing to provide services and supply products to customers under our traditional business model.”
