the event that Shell and Codexis agree that an increase in the number of FTEs should be implemented, the Parties, prior to the implementation of such FTE increase, will discuss and agree on the timing and rate of such FTE increase as well as the allocation of such additional FTEs between Codexis FTEs and CLH FTEs.

 

  (h) Section 2.6(b) is hereby amended to include the following:

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that Shell, in accordance with Section 2.6(c), exercises its right to reduce the total number of FTEs assigned by Codexis to perform Codexis’ obligations under the Program, Codexis shall have the right to determine the allocation of Codexis FTEs and CLH FTEs comprising such reduction; provided, however, that Codexis shall consult with the Oversight Committee prior to making such determination.

 

  (i) Section 2.6(c) is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following:

(c) Reduction in FTEs.

(i) During the period beginning on May 1, 2009 and ending on May 1, 2010, Shell shall have the right to reduce the total number of FTEs assigned by Codexis to perform Codexis’ obligations under the Program by up to twelve (12) FTEs upon sixty (60) days advance notice.

(ii) After the fourth (4th) anniversary of the Effective Date, Shell shall have the right to reduce the total number of FTEs assigned by Codexis to perform Codexis’ obligations under the Program upon advance notice; provided, however, that the number of FTEs that may be reduced will not be greater than as set forth in, and implemented after written notice thereof in accordance with, the table in this Section 2.6(c)(ii), below; provided, further, however, that no reductions may be noticed during the applicable standstill period set forth in this Section 2.6(c)(ii), below, immediately after a FTE reduction already noticed (each such period during which no subsequent notice may be given, a “Standstill Period”).

By way of example, if Shell elects to reduce the number of FTEs by twelve (12) FTEs or less, no additional reductions may be made by Shell during the ninety (90) day Standstill Period beginning on the date of advance written notice of such reduction election. Similarly, if Shell elects to reduce the number of FTEs by more than twelve (12) FTEs but less than or equal to forty-eight (48) FTEs, no additional reductions may be made by Shell during the one hundred eighty (180) day Standstill Period beginning on the date of advance written notice of such reduction election.

 

  (j) Section 2.8 is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety by the following:

2.8 Milestones.

(a) Year One Final Milestone. Shell acknowledges that, as of the Execution Date, Codexis has achieved the Year One Final Milestone.

(b) Annual Milestones. Prior to beginning work, Codexis shall provide a proposal to Shell for annual milestones for each work stream. The Parties shall submit such proposed milestones to the Research Committee for consideration and recommendation to the Oversight Committee for approval.

(c) Year Three Goal(s). Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, prior to February 14, 2009, Codexis shall provide a proposal to Shell for Program progress goal(s) to be achieved as of the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Year Three Goal(s)”). The Parties shall submit such proposed Year Three Goal(s) to the Research Committee for consideration and recommendation to the Oversight Committee for approval. For purposes of clarification, it is the intent of the Parties that the Year Three Goal(s) will be more technically challenging to achieve than the annual Milestones established in accordance with Section 2.8(b).

(d) Year Four Goal(s). Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, prior to May 1, 2009, Codexis shall provide a proposal to Shell for Program progress goal(s) to be achieved as of the fourth (4th) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Year Four Goal(s)”). The Parties shall submit such proposed Year Four Goal(s) to the Research Committee for consideration and recommendation to the Oversight Committee for approval. For purposes of clarification, it is the intent of the Parties that the Year Four Goal(s) will be more technically challenging to achieve than the annual Milestones established in accordance with Section 2.8(b).

(e) Year Five Goal(s). Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, prior to March 1, 2010, Codexis shall provide a proposal to Shell for Program progress goal(s) to be achieved as of the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Year Five Goal(s)”). The Parties shall submit such proposed Year Five Goal(s) to the Research Committee for consideration and recommendation to the Oversight Committee for approval. For purposes of clarification, it is the intent of the Parties that the Year Five

Goal(s) will be more technically challenging to achieve than the annual Milestones established in accordance with Section 2.8(b).

(f) Year Six Goal(s). Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, prior to March 1, 2011, Codexis shall provide a proposal to Shell for Program progress goal(s) to be achieved as of the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Year Six Goal(s)”). The Parties shall submit such proposed Year Six Goal(s) to the Research Committee for consideration and recommendation to the Oversight Committee for approval. For purposes of clarification, it is the intent of the Parties that the Year Six Goal(s) will be more technically challenging to achieve than the annual Milestones established in accordance with Section 2.8(b).

(e) Milestone Verification.

(i) In the event that Codexis reasonably believes that it has achieved a particular annual Milestone, the Year Three Goal(s), the Year Four Goal(s), the Year Five Goal(s) or the Year Six Goal(s), Codexis shall deliver written notice thereof to Shell (each such notice, a “Milestone Notice”). Within ten (10) business days after delivery of a particular Milestone Notice, Codexis shall provide to Shell sufficient quantities of any relevant Biocatalyst to permit Shell to verify that the annual Milestone, the Year Three Goal(s), the Year Four Goal(s), the Year Five Goal(s) or the Year Six Goal(s), as the case may be, in such Milestone Notice has been achieved.

(ii) In the event that Shell cannot verify Codexis’ assertion that Codexis has achieved the annual Milestone, the Year Three Goal(s), the Year Four Goal(s), the Year Five Goal(s) or the Year Six Goal(s), as the case may be, identified in a particular Milestone Notice, Shell shall provide written notice thereof to Codexis (each such notice, a “Nonreplication Notice”). The annual Milestone, the Year Three Goal(s), the Year Four Goal(s), the Year Five Goal(s) or the Year Six Goal(s), as the case may be, identified in each Milestone Notice shall be deemed to have been achieved unless Shell provides a Nonreplication Notice within ninety (90) days after Shell’s receipt of such Milestone Notice; provided that, upon written notice provided prior to the expiration of such ninety (90) day period, Shell may seek an extension of such ninety (90) day period of up to forty-five (45) days to provide such Nonreplication Notice, not to be unreasonably withheld by Codexis. Upon Codexis’ receipt of a Nonreplication Notice, the Parties will determine a mutually agreeable time to perform the applicable tests necessary to replicate the identified annual asserted Milestone, the Year Three Goal(s), the Year Four Goal(s), the Year Five Goal(s) or the Year Six Goal(s), as the case may be, that is the subject of such Nonreplication Notice, such tests to be performed, at Shell’s sole option and expense (A) by Shell at a Shell facility, with Codexis observing; (B) by Codexis at a Codexis facility, with Shell observing; or (C) by a mutually agreeable Third Party at such Third Party’s facilities, with both Codexis and Shell observing. The outcome of such test shall be determinative of whether the annual Milestone, the Year Three Goal(s), the Year Four Goal(s), the Year Five Goal(s) or the Year Six Goal(s), as

 

[*] Certain information in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

the case may be, has been achieved. In the event that Shell elects to have such test performed by a mutually agreeable Third Party, Codexis shall first execute a sponsored research agreement with such Third Party substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.8(e)(ii).

 

  (k) ARTICLE 2, PROGRAM ACTIVITIES, is hereby amended to include the following:

2.9 Fuel Innovation. For each invention within the Fuel Innovation, Shell, for a period beginning on the date of filing of the first non-provisional patent application claiming such invention (the date of each such filing, the “Filing Date”) and continuing until the three (3) year anniversary of the Filing Date (for each such invention, the “Exclusivity Period”), shall work exclusively with Codexis to identify biological methods of synthesis of the compound(s) that are claimed, or whose use as a liquid fuel, including without limitation any liquid fuel blend, or as a fuel additive to a liquid fuel, or a Lubricant, is claimed in such patent filing using biological materials, technology, technical information, know-how, expertise and trade secrets. For purposes of clarification, the term “exclusively,” as used in the previous sentence with respect to Shell, shall permit Shell to conduct activities internally within Shell and with any party that is an Affiliate of Shell as of the Amendment Date (other than Iogen Energy Corporation, or any successor, assign or transferee of Iogen Energy Corporation), and that Shell shall not enter into any agreement with any Third Party, or with Iogen Energy Corporation, or any successor, assign or transferee of Iogen Energy Corporation, in each case, to develop biological methods of synthesis of any molecule within the Fuel Innovation, without the prior written consent of Codexis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that Shell or a Shell Affiliate (other than [*]) acquires one hundred percent (100%) of the voting shares of [*], then the restrictions in this Section 2.9 with respect to the development of biological methods of synthesis of any molecule within the Fuel Innovation will not apply to [*]. In the event that Shell has not funded at least [*] FTE Months for the identification of biological methods of synthesis of the compound(s) disclosed in such patent filings using biological materials, technology, technical information, know-how, expertise and trade secrets during the applicable Exclusivity Period, such applicable Exclusivity Period shall be extended automatically for an additional two (2) year period and will expire on the five (5) year anniversary of the applicable Filing Date, and not on the three (3) year anniversary of the applicable Filing Date. Upon expiration of the applicable Exclusivity Period, either on the three (3) year anniversary of the applicable Filing Date, or on the five (5) year anniversary of the applicable Filing Date, Shell may continue to work with Codexis, but also may work on its own, with any Shell Affiliate or with any Third Party, to identify biological methods of synthesis of the compound(s) claimed in the applicable patent filings using biological materials, technology, technical information, know-how, expertise and trade secrets. Any and all patent applications and patents covering patentable inventions arising from the activities of Codexis and Shell under this Section 2.9 shall be deemed to be Program Patent Rights and any and all technology and materials arising from the activities of

(b) Second Contract Year. During the second (2nd) Contract Year of the Term, Shell shall pay to Codexis a research funding fee based on a FTE rate equal to Four Hundred Twenty Thousand United States Dollars ($420,000) per year for each of the FTEs assigned by Codexis to perform Codexis’ obligations under the Program during the second (2nd) Contract Year of the Term. Such FTE rate includes any and all associated overhead expenses, normal laboratory supplies and consumables expenses, and typical operational research expenses for the conduct of the Program. For the avoidance of doubt, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or as set forth under the terms of the Series F Stock Purchase Agreement, no additional funds will be provided by Shell for the conduct of the Program, including, for example, funds for facilities, infrastructure, software, capital expenditures, equipment or any other type of expenditure.

 

  (b) Section 3.3 is hereby amended to include the following:

(c) After the Second Contract Year. After the second (2nd) Contract Year of the Term, beginning on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Date, Shell shall pay to Codexis a research funding fee based on (i) a Codexis FTE rate equal to Four Hundred Forty-One Thousand United States Dollars ($441,000) per year for each of the Codexis FTEs assigned by Codexis to perform Codexis’ obligations under the Program and (ii) a CLH FTE rate equal to Three Hundred Fifty Thousand United States Dollars ($350,000) per year for each of the CLH FTEs assigned by Codexis to perform Codexis’ obligations under the Program; in each case during the third (3rd) Contract Year of the Term. The Codexis FTE rate and the CLH FTE rate each shall be increased annually at the beginning of each subsequent Contract Year of the Term by an amount equal to the annual change in the index set forth on Schedule E (the “FTE Index”) for each Codexis FTE and each CLH FTE. The increase in FTE rate, if any, with respect to each of the Codexis FTE rate and the CLH FTE rate, will be based on the change in the FTE Index during the most recent twelve (12) month period for which final, corrected data are available; provided, however, in the event that such change is a negative number, the relevant FTE rate shall remain unchanged for the subsequent Contract Year. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, in the event that the index set forth on Schedule F (the “CLH FTE Index”) for a twelve (12) month period for which final, corrected data are available is greater than twice the FTE Index for such twelve (12)

month period, the increase in FTE rate for CLH FTEs, but not for Codexis FTEs, will be based on the change in the CLH FTE Index. The Codexis FTE rate and the CLH FTE rate, each as set forth in this Section 3.3(c), include any and all associated overhead expenses, normal laboratory supplies and consumables expenses, and typical operational research expenses for the conduct of the Program. For the avoidance of doubt, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or as set forth under the terms of the Series F Stock Purchase Agreement, no additional funds will be provided by Shell for the conduct of the Program, including, for example, funds for facilities, infrastructure, software, capital expenditures, equipment or any other type of expenditure. FTE payments in each Contract Year shall be made in six (6) equal installments (each an “FTE Installment”), each in advance of work actually performed based on the planned utilization of FTEs for the following two (2) months; provided, however, that, in the event either Party elects to reduce the number of FTEs working on the Program pursuant to Section 2.6(c), a corresponding reduction will be made to the amount of the next FTE Installment.

 

  (c) Sections 3.4(b), (c), (d) and (e) are hereby deleted and replaced in their entirety by the following:

The Company has not received any notice alleging that any such violation has occurred. The Company has complied in all material respects with all applicable state and federal equal employment opportunity and other laws related to employment and immigration insofar as non-compliance may create a Company liability.
