Solazyme intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to fund project related costs and capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes.
The Convertible Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.00% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on August 1 and February 1 of each year, beginning on August 1, 2013. The Convertible Notes will mature on February 1, 2018, unless earlier repurchased or converted. Solazyme may not redeem the Convertible Notes prior to maturity.
