Item 8.01Other Events.

 

As previously reported, on October 26, 2016, Amyris, Inc. (the “Company”) and Nenter & Co., Inc. (“Nenter”) entered into a Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to collaborate to create and develop certain compounds and, in the event the parties achieve certain specified development targets, to establish and implement a worldwide manufacturing and commercialization plan relating thereto. In addition, pursuant to, and as consideration for, the Cooperation Agreement, promptly after the effectiveness of the Cooperation Agreement, which was subject to obtaining certain corporate and regulatory approvals, the Company would issue to Nenter a warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrant”). The terms of the Cooperation Agreement and the Warrant were previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 1, 2016, and all such disclosure is incorporated herein by reference.

 

On November 16, 2016, the Cooperation Agreement became effective upon obtaining necessary approvals and the Company issued the Warrant to Nenter in a private placement pursuant to the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant, upon the request of Nenter, the Company will use its best efforts to cause the shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the Warrant to be registered under the Securities Act within 90 days of the exercise of the Warrant.
