This Amendment No. 2 to Supply and License Agreement (this “Amendment #2”) is made as of April 18, 2023, between Bolt Threads, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bolt”), and Vegamour, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Vegamour”) (together, the “Parties”).

 

WHEREAS, the Parties are party to that certain Supply and License Agreement dated as of August 1, 2021, as amended August 19, 2022 (the “Agreement”); and

 

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to amend the Agreement as set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

 

1.The first sentence of Section 1 of the Agreement is amended and restated to read as follows:

 

Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall terminate on December 31, 2026 (the “Term”), unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Agreement.”

 

2.New Section 7(a)(1) is added to the Agreement:

 

1. Manufacturing for 2023 and 2024. Manufacturing for 2023 and 2024 will be as set forth in Appendix A (2023/2024 Manufacturing Plan). Manufacturing will take place at Laurus Bio (“Laurus”), a contract manufacturer engaged directly by Bolt. Laurus shall be deemed a subcontractor of Bolt and any manufacturing by Laurus shall not relieve Bolt of its obligations under the Agreement, and Bolt shall remain fully responsible for the performance of Laurus and for their compliance with the Agreement.”

 

3.New Sections 4(a) and (b) are added to the Agreement:

 

a. 2023 and 2024. Product Orders for 2023 and 2024 will be governed by Appendix A. Any payments by Vegamour to Laurus will satisfy the Minimum Purchase requirements for the applicable calendar years as set forth in this Section 4 above.

 

b. Pricing. The cost per kg for bSilk Powder for calendar years 2023 and 2024 shall be as set forth on Appendix A. Bolt agrees that costs shall be evaluated on an ongoing basis with the goal of lowering cost per kg. As set forth in Appendix A, Vegamour will make a one-time payment to Bolt of [***]% of the total campaign cost upon successful completion of the campaign. The parties agree that no further payments or Priority Fees (as defined in Section 5(c)) will be due to Bolt for manufacturing performed in 2023 and 2024 pursuant to Appendix A. In the event that Product Orders for 2025 and 2026 will continue to be manufactured at Laurus, (i) the parties shall negotiate in good faith the cost per kg for such calendar years, provided however that Bolt agrees that in no event shall the cost per kg for calendar years 2025 and 2026 exceed the cost per kg set forth on Appendix A; and (ii) Bolt agrees that the Priority Fees set forth in Section 5(c) for those calendar years shall be waived.
