SOLAZYME, INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. THE COMPANY
Solazyme, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March�31, 2003. The Companys proprietary technology uses highly optimized microalgae in an industrial fermentation process to transform a growing range of abundant plant-based sugars into high-value triglyceride oils and other bioproducts. The Companys renewable products can replace or enhance products derived from the worlds three existing oil sources: petroleum, plants, and animal fats. The Company has the ability to tailor the composition of its oils and other bioproducts to address specific customer requirements, offering superior performance characteristics and value. The Company has pioneered an industrial biotechnology platform that harnesses the oil-producing characteristics of microalgae. The Company uses standard industrial fermentation equipment to efficiently scale and accelerate microalgaes natural oil production time to a few days. By feeding plant-based sugars to the Companys proprietary oil-producing microalgae in dark fermentation tanks, the Company is in effect utilizing indirect photosynthesis. The Companys technology platform is feedstock flexible and can utilize a wide variety of renewable plant-based sugars, including sugarcane-based sucrose, corn-based dextrose, and sugar from other sustainable biomass sources including cellulosics, which the Company believes will represent an important alternative feedstock in the future. Beyond triglyceride oils and other bioproducts, the Companys technology platform allows it to also produce and sell specialty algal meal products for a range of product applications that utilize the protein, fiber and other compounds found in the cell wall and algal body of the microalgae. In January 2014, the Company commenced commercial operations at both Archer Daniels Midland Company's Clinton, Iowa facility, and the downstream companion facility operated by American Natural Processors, Inc. in Galva, Iowa ("Clinton/Galva Facilities"). In May 2014, the Company's joint venture with Bunge Global Innovation, LLC (together with its affiliates, "Bunge") produced its first commercially saleable products at the Solazyme Bunge Renewable Oils plant in Brazil ("Solazyme Bunge JV Plant").
The Company expects ongoing losses as it continues to scale-up its manufacturing, continues with its research and development activities and supports commercialization activities for its products. The Company plans to meet its capital requirements primarily through equity financing, collaborative agreements and the issuance of debt securities.
The industry in which the Company is involved is highly competitive and is characterized by the risks of changing technologies, market conditions, and regulatory requirements. Penetration into markets requires investment of considerable resources and continuous development efforts. The Companys future success depends upon several factors, including the technological quality, price, and performance of its products and services relative to those of its competitors, scaling up of production for commercial sale, ability to secure adequate project financing at appropriate terms, and the nature of regulation in its target markets.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Companys condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Solazyme Brazil Renewable Oils and Bioproducts Limitada (Solazyme Brazil), the operations of which began in the first quarter of 2011, and Solazyme Manufacturing 1, L.L.C, which was formed to own the Peoria, Illinois facility assets and related promissory note in the second quarter of 2011. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company has an interest in an active joint venture entity that is a variable interest entity (VIE). Determining whether to consolidate a VIE in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810, Consolidation, requires judgment in assessing (i)�whether an entity is a VIE entity and (ii)�if the Company is the entitys primary beneficiary and thus required to consolidate the entity. To determine if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company evaluates whether it has (i)�the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIEs economic performance and (ii)�the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
On November�3, 2010, the Company entered into a joint venture, Solazyme Roquette Nutritionals, LLC (SRN), with Roquette Fr�res, S.A. (Roquette), 50% owned by the Company and 50% owned by Roquette. The Company determined that this joint venture was a VIE and the Company was not required to consolidate its 50% ownership in this joint venture. Therefore, this joint venture was accounted for under the equity method of accounting. In June 2013, the Company and Roquette agreed to dissolve SRN and on July�18, 2013, SRN was dissolved (see Note 8).

7



On April�2, 2012, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement ("Joint Venture Agreement") with Bunge. The Companys joint venture with Bunge (Solazyme Bunge JV) is a VIE and is 50.1% owned by the Company and 49.9% owned by Bunge. The Company determined that it was not required to consolidate the 50.1% ownership in this joint venture and therefore accounts for this joint venture under the equity method of accounting (see Note 8).
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly the Companys interim financial information. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December�31, 2014, or for other interim periods or future years.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December�31, 2013, as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March�14, 2014. The December�31, 2013 unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheet included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
Significant Accounting Policies  Except as described below, there have been no changes to the Companys significant accounting policies since the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December�31, 2013.
Inventories - Beginning in 2014, inventories also include manufacturing and related third party contract costs associated with the production of the Company's intermediate/ingredient products that met applicable regulatory requirements. Prior to products' meeting any applicable regulatory requirements, and during scale-up of the manufacturing process to nameplate capacity, a portion of the manufacturing and related production costs are charged to research and development expenses.
Product Revenue - Product revenue is recognized from the sale of the Company's branded consumer products, which currently includes its Algenist and EverDeep skin care lines, and from the sale of the Company's intermediate/ingredient products including its Tailored" oil products and blended fuel sales, the latter of which is part of the Company's fuels marketing and development programs.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements  In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09�on its consolidated financial statements.
3. BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the Companys net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive securities, including stock options, restricted stock units and common stock warrants. Basic and diluted net loss per share was the same for all periods presented as the inclusion of all potentially dilutive securities outstanding was anti-dilutive.

Marketable securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value as of September 30, 2014 and December�31, 2013. Realized gains and losses from sales and maturities of marketable securities were not significant in the periods presented.
The aggregate fair value of available-for-sale securities with unrealized losses was $95.3 million as of September 30, 2014. Gross unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities were $0.2 million as of September 30, 2014, and the Company believes the gross unrealized losses are temporary. In determining that the decline in fair value of these securities was temporary, the Company considered the length of time each security was in an unrealized loss position and the extent to which the fair value was less than cost. The aggregate fair value and unrealized loss of available-for-sale securities which had been in a continuous loss position for more than 12 months was $2.7 million and $27,000 as of September 30, 2014, respectively. In addition, the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost basis.
5. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels that are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to the valuation of these assets or liabilities are as follows:
"
Level�1Observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

"
Level�2Observable inputs other than Level�1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

"
Level�3Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques and significant management judgment or estimation.

The Company had no transactions measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2014 and December�31, 2013.
Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities  Cash equivalents and marketable securities classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued based on other observable inputs, including broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources. When quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities are not available, the Company relies on non-binding quotes, which are based on proprietary valuation models of independent pricing services. These models generally use inputs such as observable market data, quoted market prices for similar instruments, historical pricing trends of a security as relative to its peers and�internal assumptions of the independent pricing services. The Company corroborates the reasonableness of non-binding quotes received from the independent pricing services by comparing them to quotes of identical or similar instruments from other pricing sources. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not record impairment charges related to its cash equivalents and marketable securities, and the Company did not have any transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Derivative Liabilities  In January 2013, the Company issued 6.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 (the "2018 Notes") and, in April 2014, the Company issued 5.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2019 (the 2019 Notes collectively with the 2018 Notes, the "Notes"). Each of the 2018 Notes and the 2019 Notes contain an early conversion payment feature pursuant to which a holder may convert its Notes into shares of the Company's common stock. With respect to any conversion of 2018 Notes prior to November�1, 2016 or any conversion of 2019 Notes prior to January 1, 2018 (other than conversions in connection with certain fundamental changes), in addition to the shares deliverable upon conversion, holders are entitled to receive an early conversion payment equal to $83.33 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes surrendered for conversion that may be settled, at the Companys election, in cash or, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, in shares of the Companys common stock. These early conversion payment features have been identified as embedded derivatives and are separated from the host contracts, the Notes, and carried at fair value when: (a)�the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract; and (b)�a separate, stand-alone instrument with the same terms would qualify as a derivative instrument. The Company has concluded that the embedded derivatives related to the early conversion payment features of the Notes meet these criteria and, as such, must be valued separate and apart from the Notes and recorded at their fair values at each reporting period. At each reporting period, the Company records these embedded derivatives at their fair values, which are included as a component of Convertible Debt on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of the embedded derivatives are trued up on a recurring basis as Note holders early convert their Notes and receive the early conversion payment.
The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair values of the embedded derivatives related to the early conversion payment features of the Notes. Historically, using the Monte Carlo model, the value of the embedded

11



derivative was based on the assumption that the Notes will be converted early if the conversion value is greater than the holding value. Beginning in the second quarter of 2014, using the Monte Carlo model, the Company valued these embedded derivatives using a with-and-without method, where the value of the Notes including the embedded derivatives, is defined as the with, and the value of the Notes excluding the embedded derivatives, is defined as the without. This method estimates the value of the embedded derivatives by observing the difference between the value of the Notes with the embedded derivatives and the value of the Notes without the embedded derivatives.�The Company believes the "with-and-without method" results in a measurement that is more representative of the fair value of the embedded derivatives.
The model requires the following inputs: (i)�price of the Companys common stock; (ii)�conversion rate of shares of common stock per $1,000 in principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustment; (iii)�conversion price per share of common stock, subject to adjustment; (iv)�maturity date of the Notes and early payment feature; (v)�estimated credit spread (historically the risk-free interest rate); and (vi)�estimated stock volatility.
The following tables set forth the Level 3 inputs to the Monte Carlo simulation models that were used to determine the fair values of the embedded derivatives for the Notes:

The $5.1 million net decrease in the estimated fair value of the embedded derivative for the 2018 Notes between December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2014 represents an unrealized gain of $4.1 million that has been recorded as gain from change in fair value of derivative liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and fair value adjustments related to conversions made in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 of $1.0 million. The $3.1 million decrease in the estimated fair value of the embedded derivative for the 2019 Notes between the issuance date of April 1, 2014 and September 30, 2014 represents an unrealized gain that has been recorded as a gain from change in fair value of derivative liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The Company has estimated the fair value of its secured and unsecured debt obligations based upon discounted cash flows with Level 3 inputs, such as the terms that management believes would currently be available to the Company for similar issues of debt, taking into account the current credit risk of the Company and other factors. As of September 30, 2014 and December�31, 2013 the carrying values of the Companys secured and unsecured debt obligations, excluding the Notes, approximated their fair values. The Company has estimated the fair value of the Notes to be $225.5 million at September 30, 2014 based upon Level 2 inputs using the market price of the Notes derived from actual trades quoted from Bloomberg, and the fair value of the 2018 Notes to be $117.7 million at December 31, 2013 using a midmarket pricing convention (the midpoint price between bid and ask prices) quoted from Bloomberg.

8. INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Solazyme Bunge Joint Venture
In April 2012, the Company and Bunge formed the Solazyme Bunge JV to build, own and operate the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant, a commercial-scale renewable algal oils production facility adjacent to Bunges Moema sugarcane mill in Brazil. The Company expects this production facility to have annual production capacity of 100,000 MT of oil. Construction of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant commenced in the second quarter of 2012. In May 2014, the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant produced its first commercially saleable products on full-scale production lines, including 625,000 liter fermentation tanks. Both oil and Encapso" lubricant products have been manufactured; production is continuing and is expected to ramp toward nameplate capacity as the Company works to increase efficiency in unit operations, and balances production volumes with operating costs as it focuses on higher value products. The Company expects that additional capital expenditures may be required to reach nameplate capacity depending on the product mix produced at the plant. The Solazyme Bunge JV Plant leverages the Companys technology and Bunges sugarcane milling and natural oil processing capabilities to produce microalgae-based products. The Solazyme Bunge JV is 50.1% owned by the Company and 49.9% by Bunge and is governed by a four member board of directors, two from each investor. The capital contributions for this venture are being provided jointly by Solazyme and Bunge, and the agreement includes a value sharing mechanism that provides additional compensation to the Company for its technology contributions. The Company committed to make an initial capital contribution of up to $36.3 million in fiscal 2012 and, additional capital contributions of up to an additional $36.3 million beginning after December�31, 2012, primarily to fund the construction of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant. The Company and Bunge each contributed capital in the amount of $59.3 million through September 30, 2014, comprised of $37.0 million, $12.3 million and $10.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, to the Solazyme Bunge JV. In August 2014, the Company contributed $6.5 million to the Solazyme Bunge JV through a reduction in the Companys receivables due from the Solazyme Bunge JV of $6.5 million.�The Company and Bunge each contributed capital in the amount of $1.0 million in October 2014. The Companys capital contributions paid in cash were recorded as an increase to investment in unconsolidated joint venture and a corresponding decrease to cash and cash equivalents.
The Company has determined that the Solazyme Bunge JV is a�VIE�based on the insufficiency of each partys equity investment at risk to absorb losses and the Companys share of the respective expected losses of the Solazyme�Bunge JV. Currently, the construction of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant is the activity of the Solazyme Bunge JV that most significantly impacts its economic performance. Although the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits of the Solazyme Bunge JV that could potentially be significant to the Solazyme Bunge JV, each of the Company and Bunge has equally shared decisionmaking powers over certain significant activities of the Solazyme Bunge JV, including those related to the construction of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant. Therefore, the Company does not consider itself to be the Solazyme Bunge JVs primary beneficiary�at this time, and as such has not consolidated the financial results of the Solazyme Bunge JV since the inception of this joint venture. The Company accounts for its interests in�the Solazyme Bunge JV�under the equity method of accounting.�This consolidation status could change in the future due to�changes in events and circumstances�impacting the power�to�direct the activities�that most significantly affect the Solazyme Bunge JVs�economic performance. The Company will continue to reassess its potential designation as the primary beneficiary of the Solazyme�Bunge JV. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 the Company recognized $7.2 million and $15.7 million of losses, respectively, related to its equity method investment in the Solazyme�Bunge JV. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 the Company recognized $2.3 million and $4.1 million of losses, respectively, related to its equity method investment in the Solazyme�Bunge JV.
In anticipation of the Solazyme Bunge JVs formation, in May 2011, the Company granted Bunge a warrant (the "Bunge Warrant) to purchase 1,000,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $13.50 per share. The Bunge Warrant was to vest (i)�25% on the date that Solazyme and Bunge entered into a joint venture agreement to construct and operate a commercial-scale renewable oil production facility ("first tranche"); (ii)�50% upon the commencement of construction of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant ("second tranche"); and (iii)�25% on the date upon which the aggregate output of triglyceride oil at the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant reached 1,000 MT ("third tranche"). The number of warrant shares issuable was subject to adjustment for failure to achieve the performance milestones on a timely basis, as well as certain changes to the capital structure of Solazyme Bunge JV and corporate transactions. The Bunge Warrant expires in May 2021.
The Company accounts for the Bunge Warrant pursuant to ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees, which establishes that share-based payment transactions with nonemployees shall be measured at the�fair value�of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued (whichever is more reliably measurable), and the measurement date of such instruments shall be the earlier of the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty is reached or the date at which the counterpartys performance is complete. A performance commitment is a commitment under which performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is probable because of sufficiently

14



large disincentives for nonperformance. The measurement date of the Bunge Warrant was April�2, 2012, the formation date of Solazyme Bunge JV, as it was determined that the future performance to earn the Bunge Warrant shares was probable.
On April�2, 2012, the Company recorded an investment in the Solazyme Bunge JV of $10.4 million, equal to the fair value of the Bunge Warrant, and recorded a corresponding $2.7 million of additional paid-in capital for the vested first tranche of the Bunge Warrant shares and $7.7 million of warrant liability for the unvested Bunge Warrant shares as of that date. The fair value of the Bunge Warrant was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The warrant liability is remeasured to fair value at each balance sheet date and/or upon vesting, and the warrant liability is reclassified to additional paid-in capital upon vesting. On June�20, 2012, the second tranche of the Bunge Warrant shares vested, resulting in a reclassification of $4.6 million, which represented the fair value as of that date, to additional paid-in capital. The Company had a $0.7 million warrant liability associated with the unvested third tranche of the Bunge Warrant shares as of December 31, 2013. The fair value of the warrant liability was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based upon the following assumptions as of December 31, 2013: volatility of 50%, risk-free interest rate of 2.45%, exercise price of $13.50 and an expected life of 7.34 years. As of June 30, 2014, the Company had no warrant liability associated with the Bunge Warrant shares as the third tranche could no longer vest. The Company recorded a net unrealized gain related to the change in the fair value of the warrant liability of $0 and $0.7 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, and a net unrealized gain of $0.2 million and a net unrealized loss of $0.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. As of September 30, 2014, 750,000 of the Bunge Warrant shares had vested.
In addition to forming the Solazyme Bunge JV in April 2012, the Company entered into a Development Agreement with the Solazyme Bunge JV to continue to conduct research and development activities that are intended to benefit the Solazyme Bunge JV, including activities in the areas of strain development, molecular biology and process development. The Development Agreement provides that the Solazyme Bunge JV will pay the Company a technology maintenance fee in recognition of the Companys ongoing research investment in technology that would benefit the Solazyme Bunge JV. The Company also entered into a Technology Service Agreement with the Solazyme Bunge JV under which the Solazyme Bunge JV will pay the Company for technical services related to the operations of the production facility. In the third quarter of 2013, the Solazyme Bunge JV also agreed to pay the Company to support the Solazyme Bunge JVs commercial activities, including, but not limited to, facilitating supply agreements on behalf of the Solazyme Bunge JV and providing regulatory support.
In November 2012, the Company entered into a joint venture expansion framework agreement with Bunge. This framework agreement sets forth the intent of the partners to expand joint venture-owned oil production capacity from the current 100,000 MT under construction in Brazil to 300,000 MT by 2016 at select Bunge owned and operated processing facilities worldwide. In addition, the Company and Bunge amended the Joint Venture Agreement in October 2013 to expand the field and product portfolio of the Solazyme Bunge JV. The Company and Bunge intend to work together through joint market development to bring new, healthy and nutritious edible oils to the Brazilian market.
In February 2013, the Solazyme Bunge JV entered into a loan agreement with the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES or BNDES Loan) under which it may borrow up to R$245.7 million (approximately USD $100.8 million based on the exchange rate as of September 30, 2014). As a condition of the Solazyme Bunge JV drawing funds under the loan, the Company may be required to provide a bank guarantee equal to 14.39% of the total amount available under the BNDES Loan and a corporate guarantee equal to 35.71% of the total amount available under the BNDES Loan (an amount not to exceed the Companys ownership percentage in the Solazyme Bunge JV). The BNDES funding supports the construction of the Solazyme Bunge JVs first commercial-scale production facility in Brazil, which will reduce the capital requirements funded directly by the Company and Bunge. The term of the BNDES Loan is eight years and the loan has an average interest rate of approximately 4.0%�per annum. As of September 30, 2014, the Companys bank guarantee was in place and the corporate guarantee was not in place. The fees incurred on the cancelable bank guarantee were not material during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
The following table summarizes the carrying amounts of the assets and the fair value of the liabilities included in the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheet and the maximum loss exposure related to the Companys interest in its unconsolidated VIE (the Solazyme Bunge JV) as of September 30, 2014 (in thousands):

Solazyme Roquette Joint Venture
In November 2010, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Roquette. The purpose of the joint venture, Solazyme Roquette Nutritionals, LLC (SRN), was to engage in manufacturing, distribution, sales, marketing and support of products and services related to the use of microalgae to which the Company has not applied its targeted recombinant technology, in a fermentation production process to produce materials for use in the following fields: (i)�human foods and beverages, (ii)�animal feed and (iii)�nutraceuticals. In June 2013, the Company and Roquette agreed to dissolve SRN and on July�18, 2013, SRN was dissolved. After assessing the recoverability of SRN amounts capitalized on the Companys balance sheet, the Company recorded charges to Loss From Equity Method Investments in its condensed consolidated statement of operations of $0.7 million for unrecoverable receivables due from SRN, and $0.7 million for unrecoverable capital contributions made to SRN during the nine months ended September�30, 2013.
The Company had determined that SRN was a�VIE�based on the insufficiency of each partys equity investment at risk to absorb losses and the Companys share of the respective expected losses of SRN. Prior to SRNs dissolution, the Phase 1 plant operations and market development activities were the activities of SRN that most significantly impacted its economic performance. The Company did not have the obligation to absorb the losses of SRN that could potentially be significant to SRN, and the Company and Roquette had equally shared decision-making powers over certain significant activities of SRN. Therefore, the Company did not consider itself to be SRNs primary beneficiary since inception of this joint venture and as such had never consolidated the financial results of SRN. The Company accounted for its interests in�SRN�under the equity method of accounting.

10. COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS, GOVERNMENT�PROGRAMS AND LICENSES

UnileverEffective November 2009, the Company entered into a collaborative research and development agreement with Conopco,�Inc. (doing business as Unilever) to develop oil for use in soap and other products. The Company completed the research and development under this agreement in the year ended December�31, 2010. In the first quarter of 2011, the Company and Unilever agreed to extend their research and development agreement through June�30, 2011.
In October 2011, the Company entered into a joint development agreement with Unilever (the Companys fourth agreement with Unilever), which expanded its current research and development efforts. In September 2013 the Company and Unilever entered into a commercial supply agreement for at least 10,000 MT of the Company's algal oil, and in September 2014, the Company and Unilever agreed to extend the joint development agreement through September�30, 2015.
Department of EnergyIn December 2009, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) awarded the Company approximately $21.8 million to partially fund the construction, operation, and optimization of an integrated biorefinery. The project commenced in 2010 and is near completion. The payments received are not refundable and are based on a contractual reimbursement of costs incurred.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized no revenues from the DOE. The Company had no unbilled revenue and no deferred revenue balances related to this award as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
Algenist Distribution PartnersThe Company entered into a distribution contract with Sephora�S.A. (Sephora EMEA) in December 2010 to distribute the Algenist product line in Sephora stores in certain countries in Europe and select countries in the Middle East and Asia. In January 2011, the Company also entered into a distribution arrangement with Sephora USA, Inc. (Sephora Americas) to sell the Algenist product line in the Sephora Americas stores (which currently includes locations in the United States and Canada). Under both arrangements, the Company pays the majority of the costs associated with marketing the products, although both Sephora EMEA and Sephora Americas contribute in the areas of public relations, training and marketing to support the brand. Sephora EMEA creates the marketing material, but the Company has an approval right over the materials and ultimately the Company has control over the marketing budget. With Sephora Americas, the Company is responsible for creating certain marketing and training materials. The Company is obligated to fund minimum marketing expenditures under the agreement with Sephora EMEA. The Company has also granted a license to Sephora Americas and Sephora EMEA to use the Algenist trademarks and logos to advertise and promote the product line. In March 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with QVC, Inc. (QVC) and launched the sale of its Algenist product line through QVCs multimedia platform. In July 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with ULTA Beauty to sell the Algenist�line in its retail stores throughout the United States.
Bunge In May 2011, the Company entered into a joint development agreement (JDA) with Bunge, a global agribusiness and food company, that extended through May 2013. In September 2013, the Company and Bunge agreed to extend the JDA, effective from May 2013 through September 2014. Pursuant to the JDA, the Company and Bunge will jointly develop microbe-derived oils, and explore the production of such oils from Brazilian sugarcane feedstock. The JDA also provides for Bunge to provide research funding to the Company through September 2014, payable quarterly in advance throughout the research term. The Company accounts for the JDA as an obligation to perform research and development services for others in accordance with ASC 730-20, Research and Development Arrangements, and records the payments for

17



the performance of these services as revenue in its condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company recognizes revenue on the JDA based on proportionate performance�of actual efforts to date relative to the amount of expected effort incurred. The cumulative amount of revenue recognized under the JDA is limited by the amounts the Company is contractually obligated to receive as cash reimbursements.
In April 2012, the Company and Bunge entered into a Joint Venture Agreement forming a joint venture to build, own and operate a commercial-scale renewable algal oils production facility adjacent to Bunges Moema sugarcane mill in Brazil (see Note�8).
ADMIn November 2012, the Company and ADM entered into the Collaboration Agreement, establishing a collaboration for the production of algal triglyceride oil products at the Clinton Facility. In January 2014, the Company began commercial scale production of its products at the Clinton Facility using the Company's proprietary microbe-based catalysis technology. Feedstock for the facility is provided by ADMs adjacent wet mill. Under the terms of the Collaboration Agreement, the Company pays ADM annual fees for use and operation of a portion of the Clinton Facility, a portion of which may be paid in Company common stock. In March 2013, the Company issued a series of warrants to ADM for payment in stock, in lieu of cash, at its election, of future annual fees for use and operation of a portion of the Clinton Facility. Downstream processing of products produced at the Clinton Facility�is being done at a facility in Galva, Iowa ("Galva Facility") operated by a wholly owned subsidiary of American Natural Processors, Inc. The initial target nameplate capacity of the Clinton Facility is expected to be 20,000 MT per year of algal triglyceride oil products. Solazyme has an option to expand the capacity to 40,000 MT per year with the potential to further expand production to 100,000 MT per year. The parties are also working together to develop markets for the products produced at the Clinton Facility.
In January 2013, the Company granted to ADM a warrant (ADM Warrant) to purchase 500,000 shares of the Companys common stock, which vests in equal monthly installments over five years, commencing in November 2013. In addition, the Company shall grant to ADM a warrant (ADM Extension Warrant) covering an additional 500,000 shares of the Companys common stock upon the extension of the Collaboration Agreement for each further five year term, which shall vest in equal monthly installments over the applicable five year extension term. The measurement date of the ADM Warrant was established in July 2013 when the Company agreed that vesting of the ADM Warrant would commence in November 2013; therefore, it was determined that the future performance to earn the ADM Warrant shares was probable. The Company recognizes on a straight-line basis, the fair value of the ADM Warrant to rent expense beginning on the measurement date and over the lease term.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recorded rent expense related to the ADM Warrant of $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, equal to the estimated fair value of the ADM Warrant shares that had vested over the lease term since the measurement date. The estimated fair value of the ADM Warrant shares that had vested was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based upon the following assumptions during the nine months ended September 30, 2014: average volatility of 54%, average risk-free interest rate of 1.63%, exercise price of $7.17, stock price range of $9.32 to $12.97 and range of expected remaining life of 4.4 to 5.0 years. As of September 30, 2014, 91,666 of the ADM Warrant shares had vested.
MitsuiIn February 2013, the Company entered into a $20.0 million multi-year agreement with Mitsui�& Co., Ltd. (Mitsui) to jointly develop a suite of triglyceride oils for use primarily in the oleochemical industry. Product development is expected to span a multi-year period, with periodic product introductions throughout the term of the joint development alliance. End use application may include renewable, high-performance polymer additives for plastic applications, aviation lubricants and toiletry and household products. Milestones within the Mitsui joint development agreement that are determined to be substantive and at risk at the inception of the arrangement are recognized as revenue upon achievement of the milestone, and are limited to those amounts for which collectability is reasonably assured. If these conditions are not met, the milestone payments are deferred and recognized as revenue over the estimated period of performance under the contract as completion of performance obligations occur. The Company recognized $0 and $1.5 million of revenue related to substantive milestones achieved under the Mitsui joint development agreement during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, and $0 and $4.0 million of revenue related to substantive milestones achieved under the Mitsui joint development agreement during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.

Total interest costs incurred related to the Companys total debt were $2.8 million and $7.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.3 million and $4.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. Total interest costs capitalized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 were $0 and $0.6 million, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, related to the Companys investment in the Solazyme Bunge JV, accounted for under the equity method, which had activities in progress necessary to commence its planned principal operations through May 2014. The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of September 30, 2014 and December�31, 2013.
Equipment NoteIn June 2010, the Company entered into a secured promissory note agreement with the lessor of its headquarters under which $265,000 was borrowed to purchase equipment owned by the lessor. The loan is payable in monthly installments of principal and interest with final payment due in January 2015. Interest accrues at 9.0% and the promissory note is collateralized by the purchased equipment.
Silicon Valley Bank Term LoanOn May�11, 2011, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) that provided for a $20.0 million credit facility (the SVB facility) consisting of (i)�a $15.0 million term loan that was eligible to be borrowed in one or more increments prior to November�30, 2011 and (ii)�a $5.0 million revolving facility (the SVB revolving facility).�As of December�31, 2012, $11.2 million was outstanding under the SVB facility. On March�26, 2013, the SVB facility was terminated when the Company paid in full the outstanding principal and interest on this term loan using proceeds from the revolving facility with HSBC, USA, National Association, described in HSBC Facility below.
Peoria Facility NoteIn March 2011, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase a development and commercial production facility with multiple 128,000-liter fermenters, and an annual oil production capacity of over 2,000,000 liters (1,820 MT) located in Peoria, Illinois ("Peoria Facility") for $11.5 million. This transaction closed in May�2011, and the Company paid for the aggregate purchase price with available cash and borrowed $5.5 million under a promissory note, mortgage and security agreement from the seller. The Company began initial fermentation operations in the facility in the fourth quarter of 2011 and commissioned its first integrated biorefinery in June 2012 under its DOE program. The principal was paid in two lump sum payments in March 2012 and February 2013. The note is interest-free and secured by the real and personal property acquired from the seller. The assets acquired and the related note payable were recorded based upon the present value of the future payments assuming an imputed interest rate of 3.25%, resulting in a discount of $0.3 million. The $0.3 million loan discount was recognized as interest expense over the loan term utilizing the effective interest method.
HSBC FacilityIn March 2013, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with HSBC Bank, USA, National Association (HSBC) that provides for a $30.0 million revolving facility (the HSBC facility) for working capital, letters of credit denominated in U.S. dollars or a foreign currency and other general corporate purposes, and in May 2013 the Company entered into an amendment to the HSBC facility, increasing the HSBC facility amount to $35.0 million. On March�26, 2013, the Company drew down approximately $10.4 million under the HSBC facility to repay all outstanding loans plus accrued interest under the SVB facility (as defined above). The Company incurred debt issuance costs�of approximately $0.2 million related to this draw down, that was recorded in other long-term assets and is being amortized to interest expense

19



using the effective interest method over the contractual term of the loan. On June 27, 2014, the remaining outstanding balance of the HSBC facility was paid in full. A portion of the HSBC facility also supports the bank guarantee issued to BNDES in May 2013 (see Note 8). Therefore, approximately $20.5 million of the HSBC facility remained available as of September 30, 2014.
The HSBC facility is unsecured unless (i)�the Company takes action that could cause or permit obligations under the HSBC facility not to constitute Senior Debt (as defined in the indenture), (ii)�the Company breaches financial covenants that require the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain cash and unrestricted cash equivalents at all times of not less than $35.0 million plus 110% of the aggregate dollar equivalent amount of outstanding advances and letters of credit under the HSBC facility, or (iii)�there is a payment default under the facility or bankruptcy or insolvency events relating to the Company.
Advances under the HSBC facility will bear interest at a variable interest rate based on, at the Companys option at the time an advance is requested, either (i)�the Base Rate (as defined in the HSBC facility) plus the applicable Base Rate Margin (as defined in the HSBC facility), or (ii)�the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the HSBC facility) plus the applicable Eurodollar Rate Margin (as defined in the HSBC facility). The Company will pay HSBC an annual fee of two and one-half percent (2.50%) per annum with respect to letters of credit issued.�Upon an event of default, outstanding obligations under the HSBC facility will bear interest at a rate of two percent (2.00%)�per annum above the rates described in (i)�and (ii)�above.�The interest rate for total debt outstanding under the HSBC facility was 2.7% as of June 27, 2014. The original maturity date of the facility was March�26, 2015, which was extended to May�31, 2016 effective in March 2014. If on the maturity date (or earlier termination date of the HSBC facility), there are any outstanding letters of credit, the Company will be required to provide HSBC with cash collateral in the amount of (i)�for letters of credit denominated in U.S. dollars, up to one hundred five percent (105%), and (ii)�for letters of credit denominated in a foreign currency, up to one hundred ten percent (110%), of the dollar equivalent of the face amount of all such letters of credit plus all interest, fees and costs.
In addition to the financial covenants and covenants related to the indenture referenced above, the Company is subject to customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default under the HSBC facility including certain restrictions on borrowing. If an event of default occurs and continues, HSBC may declare all outstanding obligations under the HSBC facility immediately due and payable, with all obligations being immediately due and payable without any action by HSBC upon the occurrence of certain events of default or if the Company becomes insolvent.
Convertible Senior Subordinated NotesOn January�24, 2013 the Company issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2018 Notes, which amount includes the exercise in full of the over-allotment option granted to the initial purchaser of the 2018 Notes, in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 2018 Notes 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 2018 Notes are convertible into the Companys common stock and may be settled as described below. The 2018 Notes will mature on February�1, 2018, unless earlier repurchased or converted. The Company may not redeem the 2018 Notes prior to maturity.
The 2018 Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding February�1, 2018 into shares of the Companys common stock at the then-applicable conversion rate. The conversion rate is initially 121.1240 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2018 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $8.26 per share of common stock). With respect to any conversion prior to November�1, 2016 (other than conversions in connection with certain fundamental changes where the Company may be required to increase the conversion rate as described below), in addition to the shares deliverable upon conversion, holders are entitled to receive an early conversion payment equal to $83.33 per $1,000 principal amount of 2018 Notes surrendered for conversion that may be settled, at the Companys election, in cash or, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, in shares of the Companys common stock.
On June�19, 2014, the Company entered into note exchange agreements (the Exchange Agreements) with certain holders of the 2018 Notes pursuant to which such holders agreed to exchange approximately $17.5 million in aggregate principal amount of their 2018 Notes, together with accrued interest thereon through the settlement date of the Exchange Agreements, with the Company for 2,409,964 shares of the Company's common stock. The Exchange Agreements settled on June�30, 2014. As the Exchange Agreements were considered induced conversions under the applicable accounting guidance, the Company recognized $1.8 million of�debt�conversion�expense�reflected in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the nine month ended September 30, 2014, representing the fair value of the securities transferred in excess of the fair value of the securities issuable upon the original conversion terms of the 2018 Notes.�As of September 30, 2014, $63.4 million of the 2018 Notes had been converted into the Companys common stock and were reclassified from long-term debt to stockholders equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company issued nil and 2,743,475 shares of its common stock, respectively, to settle both the 2018 Note conversions and early conversion payments, including the settlements under the Exchange Agreements. The Company had $61.6 million aggregate principal amount of 2018 Notes outstanding as of September 30, 2014.

20



On April 1, 2014, the Company issued $149.5 million aggregate principal amount of 5.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated 2019 Notes, which amount includes the exercise in full of the over-allotment option granted to the underwriters, in a public offering pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement. The 2019 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.00% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on October�1, 2014. The 2019 Notes are convertible into the Company's common stock and may be settled early as described below. The 2019 Notes will mature on October 1, 2019, unless earlier repurchased or converted. The Company may not redeem the 2019 Notes prior to maturity.
The 2019 Notes are convertible at the option of the holders on any day prior to and including the scheduled trading day prior to October 1, 2019. The 2019 Notes will initially be convertible at a conversion rate of 75.7576 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $13.20 per share of Common Stock), subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. With respect to any conversion prior to January 1, 2018 (other than conversions in connection with certain fundamental changes where the Company may be required to increase the conversion rate as described below), in addition to the shares deliverable upon conversion, holders are entitled to receive an early conversion payment equal to $83.33 per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes surrendered for conversion that may be settled, at the Companys election, in cash or shares of Common Stock. The Company had $149.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2019 Notes outstanding as of September 30, 2014.
The net proceeds from both Note offerings were approximately $262.6 million, after deducting discounts to the initial purchaser of $10.9 million and debt issue costs of $1.0 million. Debt discounts incurred with the issuance of the Notes were recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a reduction to the associated Note balances. The Company amortizes the debt discounts to interest expense over the contractual or expected term of the Notes using the effective interest method. Debt issuance costs�were recorded in other long-term assets and are being amortized to interest expense over the contractual or expected term of the Notes using the effective interest method. The Company is currently using the net proceeds of the offering to fund project related costs and capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes.
The Company issued the Notes pursuant to indenture agreements by and between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee. The indentures provide for customary events of default, including cross acceleration to certain other indebtedness of the Company and its significant subsidiaries.
If the Company undergoes a fundamental change, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, if certain fundamental changes occur, the Company may be required in certain circumstances to increase the conversion rate for any Notes converted in connection with such fundamental changes by a specified number of shares of its common stock.
The Company evaluated the embedded derivatives resulting from the early conversion payment features within the indenture for bifurcation from the Notes. The early conversion payment features were not deemed clearly and closely related to the Notes and were bifurcated as embedded derivatives. The Company recorded these embedded derivatives (derivative liabilities) at fair value, which are included as a component of Convertible Debt on its condensed consolidated balance sheets with corresponding debt discounts that are netted against the principal amount of the Notes.�The derivative liabilities are remeasured to fair value at each balance sheet date, with a resulting non-cash gain or loss related to the change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities being recorded in other income and expense. The Company determined the fair value of the embedded derivatives using a Monte Carlo simulation model. See Note 5.
The Notes are the general unsecured obligations of the Company and will be subordinated in right of payment to any senior debt outstanding. The Notes will be equal or senior in right of payment to any of the Companys indebtedness other than senior debt. The Notes will effectively rank junior in right of payment to any of the Companys secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and be structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities of the Companys subsidiaries, including trade payables.
12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating Lease Agreements
The Company records rent expense under its lease agreements on a straight-line basis. Differences between actual lease payments and rent expense recognized under these leases results in a deferred rent asset or a deferred rent liability at each reporting period. The Company had a deferred rent liability of $1.1 million as of September 30, 2014, and a deferred rent asset of $3.6 million and a deferred rent liability of $0.3 million as of December 31, 2013.
The Company currently leases 96,000�square feet of office and laboratory space located in two buildings on adjacent properties in South San Francisco (SSF), California. The term of the current lease will end in February 2015.

21



In July 2014, the Company entered into a new lease agreement for the SSF properties, under which it will lease approximately 10,000 additional square feet of office and laboratory space for a total of 106,000 square feet. The term of the new lease commences in February 2015 and ends in January 2018. This lease agreement includes scheduled rent increases over the lease term, and the Company was required to provide the landlord with letters of credit amounting to $0.7 million, which was recorded to restricted cash in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2014. In addition, the landlord will reimburse the Company up to $1.6 million of improvements to the leased property, subject to certain requirements. This reimbursement is considered a lease incentive and shall be recognized as a deferred lease incentive liability and recognized as a reduction of rent expense by the Company on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
In September 2014, the Company entered into a new lease agreement for approximately 5,000 square feet of office space located in Glendale, California. The term of the new lease commences in November 2014 and ends in October 2017.
The Company also leases office and laboratory space in Brazil. The term of the lease is five years, and the lease commenced on April�1, 2011 and expires on April�1, 2016. The rent is currently 35,300 Brazilian Real (approximately $14,500 based on the exchange rate at September 30, 2014) per month and is subject to an annual inflation adjustment. The Company pays its proportionate share of operating expenses. The Company may cancel this lease agreement at any time, but would be subject to paying the lessor the maximum of a three month rent penalty.
The Company entered into several auto lease agreements during the years ended December�31, 2012 and 2013. These lease agreements contain early cancellation penalties ranging from 50% - 80% of their remaining lease values. The remaining value of the leases as of September 30, 2014 was 0.3 million Brazilian Real (approximately $0.1 million based on the exchange rate at September 30, 2014).
The Company entered into a Strategic Collaboration Agreement with ADM in November 2012 (See Note 10). The Company pays ADM annual fees for the use and operation of a portion of the Clinton Facility, a portion which may be paid in the Companys common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company made two payments to ADM in both cash and by issuing 770,761 shares of its common stock, which was recorded to deferred rent asset and equity. The common stock and cash payments made under the Strategic Collaboration Agreement are accounted for as an operating lease. In January 2013, the Company granted to ADM a warrant (ADM Warrant) to purchase 500,000 shares of the Companys common stock, which vests in equal monthly installments over five years, commencing in November 2013. In addition, the Company shall grant to ADM a warrant (ADM Extension Warrant) covering an additional 500,000 shares of the Companys common stock upon the extension of the Collaboration Agreement for each further five year term, which shall vest in equal monthly installments over the applicable five year extension term. The exercise price of the ADM Warrant is $7.17�per share and expires in January 2019. In July 2013, the measurement date for the ADM Warrant was established (See Note 10).
Downstream processing of products produced at the Clinton Facility is performed at the Galva Facility. The Company entered into a Manufacturing Services and Facility Licensing Agreement (Manufacturing and Facility Agreement) in June 2013 with a wholly owned subsidiary of American Natural Processors, Inc. for the use and operation of the Galva Facility, a portion of which may be paid in the Companys common stock. As of September 30, 2014, no payments under the Manufacturing and Facility Agreement had been made in common stock. The cash payments under the Manufacturing and Facility Agreement are accounted for as an operating lease.
Rent expense was $2.6 million and $7.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, and $2.1 million and $4.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.
Contractual ObligationsAs of September 30, 2014 the Company had non-cancelable purchase obligations of $0.9 million.
The Company has various manufacturing, research, and other contracts with vendors in the conduct of the normal course of its business. All contracts are terminable with varying provisions regarding termination. If a contract with a specific vendor were to be terminated, the Company would only be obligated for the products or services that the Company had received at the time the termination became effective.
Guarantees and IndemnificationsThe Company makes certain indemnities, commitments, and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. The Company, as permitted under Delaware law and in accordance with its amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while the officer or director is or was serving at the Companys request in such capacity. The duration of these indemnifications, commitments, and guarantees varies and, in certain cases, is indefinite. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited; however, the Company has a director and officer insurance policy that may enable it to recover all or a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company believes the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. The Company has not recorded any liability for these

22



indemnities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. However, the Company accrues for losses for any known contingent liability, including those that may arise from indemnification provisions, when future payment is probable. No such losses have been recorded to date.
In February 2013, the Solazyme Bunge JV entered into a loan agreement with BNDES under which it may borrow up to R$245.7 million (approximately USD $100.8 million based on the exchange rate as of September 30, 2014), which will support the production facility in Brazil, including a portion of the construction costs of the facility. As a condition of the Solazyme Bunge JV drawing funds under the BNDES Loan, the Company may be required to provide a bank guarantee and a corporate guarantee for a portion of the BNDES Loan (in an amount not to exceed its ownership percentage in the Solazyme Bunge JV). As of September 30, 2014 the bank guarantee was in place and the corporate guarantee was not. See also Note 8.
On December 17, 2013, the Solazyme Bunge JV entered into a Loan Facility Agreement with Bunge Alimentos S.A. (the Loan Facility). The Company agreed to guarantee repayment of 50% of the portion of the Loan Facility to be utilized for operational expenses, up to maximum aggregate advances of $5.0 million. As of March 31, 2014, a total of $10.0 million (of which the Company is the guarantor of $5.0 million) had been drawn down under the Loan Facility. Outstanding advances guaranteed by the Company were paid off in full by the Solazyme Bunge JV on April 8, 2014.
Legal MattersThe Company may be involved, from time to time, in legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. The Company accrues amounts, to the extent they can be reasonably estimated, that it believes are adequate to address any liabilities related to legal proceedings and other loss contingencies that the Company believes will result in a probable loss that is reasonably estimable.
In July 2012, a complaint was filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court by Therabotanics, LLC and Solabotanics, LLC against the Company, Sephora USA, Inc. and the Company's Senior Vice President Frederic Stoeckel alleging various causes of action in connection with the Companys joint venture with Therabotanics. The Plaintiffs alleged that the Company misappropriated assets of the joint venture and failed to produce an infomercial with the joint venture. The Plaintiffs claimed unspecified damages and injunctive relief. In June 2013, the Company filed an Answer in which it denied each and every allegation made by the Plaintiffs in their Complaint and filed a Cross-Complaint against Therabotanics and certain named individuals. In January 2014, the Plaintiffs filed a Third Amended Complaint in which the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Jonathan Wolfson, and Sephora, S.A. were added as additional defendants. In September 2014 the parties agreed to settle the litigation in exchange for a settlement payment from the Company to Therabotanics of $4.8 million, which was paid in October 2014. As of September 30, 2014, the $4.8 million litigation settlement amount was accrued in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and the Company recorded $3.9 million and $4.8 million of litigation expense to sales, general and administrative expenses in its condensed consolidated statements of operations in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. As part of the settlement the Company denied all claims made by the Plaintiffs and all parties granted releases to all other parties. The Company maintains corporate insurance and the insurer has confirmed that it will reimburse a portion of both the litigation settlement and external legal fees that is estimated at $0.3 million ($0.2 million for portion of the litigation settlement and $0.1 million for external legal fees).
While there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of any legal proceeding or other loss contingencies involving the Company, management does not believe any pending matters individually and in the aggregate will be resolved in a manner that would have a material effect on the Companys condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
13. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND COMMON STOCK
The Companys stock-based compensation plans include the Second Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan (the 2004 EIP), the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2011 EIP) and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the 2011 ESPP). On May�25, 2011, in conjunction with the Companys initial public offering, the 2004 EIP terminated so that no further awards may be granted under the 2004 EIP. Although the 2004 EIP terminated, all outstanding awards will continue to be governed by their existing terms. The plans are administered by the Board of Directors, which selects persons to receive awards and determines the number of shares subject to each award and the terms, conditions, performance measures and other provisions of the award. The Board of Directors has delegated certain authority to the Compensation Committee with respect to administration of the plans. See Note 14 to the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements, included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December�31, 2013, for additional information related to these stock-based compensation plans.

ITEM�2.
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Forward-Looking Statements
The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations and involves risks and uncertainties. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as may, will, should, expect, plan, anticipate, believe, estimate, predict, intend, potential or continue or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. For example, statements regarding our expectations as to future financial and operating performance, future selling prices and margins for our products, attributes and performance of our products, manufacturing capacity, expense levels and liquidity sources are forward-looking statements. Our actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those discussed in our forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below, those discussed in the section entitled Risk Factors included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Overview
We make renewable oils and other bioproducts. Our proprietary technology uses highly optimized microalgae in an industrial fermentation process to transform a growing range of abundant plant-based sugars into high-value triglyceride oils and other bioproducts.
We have the ability to tailor the composition of our oils and bioproducts to address specific customer requirements, offering superior performance characteristics and value, compared with conventionally sourced products. We anticipate that the average selling prices (ASPs) of our products will capture the enhanced value that results from tailoring compositions of oils that enable heightened performance. As such, we expect our products to generate attractive margins in our target markets. In the skin and personal care market, we are currently selling two consumer branded product offerings, our Algenist and EverDeep skin care lines. In the first quarter of 2014, we began manufacturing at commercial production scale, and we began selling oil-based intermediate and ingredient products. We expect to sell these oil-based intermediate and ingredients products broadly to customers in the fuels and chemicals, oil field services and nutrition markets. We expect the average margins on these intermediate and ingredient products will be lower than those of our branded consumer products; however, we believe the sales volumes for the intermediate and ingredient products will be higher as we expand our large scale production. We have entered into sales agreements and partnership agreements to advance commercialization efforts. In addition to development agreements to fund development work and new product application testing, we expect that our partners will enter into long-term purchase agreements with us. We are currently engaged in development activities with multiple partners.
The inherent flexibility of our technology platform and the broad usage of triglyceride oils and functional fluids across multiple industries allow us to approach a wide range of customers across a number of end markets. We have many oils in various stages of development that can address multiple end industrial markets.
We are also developing food oils and powders targeted at nutritional markets. Our food oils are formulated to offer a variety of functional benefits such as enhanced structuring capabilities and stability while providing robust formulation and process flexibility. In addition, we have developed novel methods of preparing powdered food ingredients, which we are commercializing under our brand name, AlgaViaTM, namely AlgaViaTM Whole Algal Flour and AlgaViaTM Whole Algal Protein. These powdered ingredients are composed of whole algal cells, which include the cell wall, oil and other valuable cellular products held within the cell. �
Our process is compatible with commercial-scale and widely-available fermentation equipment. We operate our lab and pilot fermentation and recovery equipment as scaled-down versions of our large commercial engineering designs. This allows us to more easily scale up to larger fermentation vessels. We have scaled up our technology platform and have successfully operated at lab (5-15 liter), pilot (600-1,000 liter), demonstration (120,000 liter) and commercial (approximately 500,000 liter and above) fermenter scale. The fermentation equipment used to achieve commercial scale at Archer-Daniels-Midland Companys (ADM) Clinton Facility is comparable to the fermentation equipment at the Solazyme Bunge Renewable Oils facility in Brazil.�Our existing manufacturing operations are as follows:

"
Our pilot plant in South San Francisco, California, with recovery operations capable of handling material from both 600 and 1,000 liter fermenters, enables us to produce samples of our algal oils for testing and optimization by our partners, as well as to test new process conditions at an intermediate scale.

"
In 2012, we announced successful commissioning of our first fully integrated biorefinery (IBR) at our Peoria, Illinois facility, to produce algal oil. The IBR was partially funded with a federal grant that we received from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in December 2009 to demonstrate integrated commercial-scale production of renewable algae-derived fuels. The Peoria Facility has a nameplate capacity of two million liters of oil annually and provides an important platform for continued work on feedstock flexibility and scaling of new algal oils into the marketplace. We have also modified our Peoria Facility to produce food ingredients in conjunction with market development activity.

"
In April 2012, we executed a joint venture agreement with Bunge Global Innovation, LLC and certain of its affiliates (collectively, Bunge) (Joint Venture Agreement), one of the largest sugarcane processing companies in Brazil, establishing a joint venture (Solazyme Bunge JV) to construct and operate a 100,000 MT purpose-built production facility (the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant) adjacent to Bunges sugarcane mill in Moema, Brazil. In May 2014, the Solazyme Bunge JV produced its first commercially saleable products on full-scale production lines, including 625,000 liter fermentation tanks. Both oil and Encapso" lubricant products have been manufactured; production is continuing and is expected to ramp toward nameplate capacity as we work to increase efficiency in unit operations, and balance production volumes with operating costs as we focus on higher value products. We expect that additional capital expenditures may be required to reach nameplate capacity depending on the product mix produced at the plant. See Significant Partner Agreements.

"
In November 2012, we executed a strategic collaboration agreement with ADM to produce algal triglyceride oil products at ADMs facility in Clinton, Iowa (the Clinton Facility). In January 2014, we began commercial scale production of our products at the Clinton Facility. See Significant Partner Agreements.

"
In January 2014, we commenced commercial operations at both the Clinton Facility and the downstream companion facility operated by American Natural Processors, Inc. (ANP). We, along with ADM and ANP, have manufactured four distinct products at the facilities, and products are being sold and distributed. Production at the ADM and ANP facilities is expected to ramp towards nameplate capacity of 20,000 MT/year as we refocus the Clinton Facility on higher margin products such as Encapso" lubricant and otherwise balance production with operating expenses.

"
We utilize contract manufacturing to assist in the production of our Algenist and EverDeep products and we closely monitor and advise these contract manufacturers to help ensure that our products meet stringent quality standards. We also produce some active ingredients for Solazyme Consumer Products at our Peoria Facility.
Through fiscal year 2013, our revenues have been generated from research and development programs and commercial sale of our consumer products, and starting in the first quarter of 2014, our product revenues expanded to include intermediate and ingredient products. Our research and development programs have been conducted primarily under key agreements with government agencies and strategic partners to fund development work and perform application testing. We focus our innovation efforts on creating a broad suite of algal products that meet defined market needs. We intend to continue to work closely with our partners and customers to understand their requirements and design products to specifically address their needs.
Within our consumer products business, we have developed a portfolio of innovative and branded microalgae-based consumer products. Our first major ingredient was Alguronic Acid, which was formulated into a full range of skin care products. Since its launch in March 2011, we have commercialized Algenist, which is an anti-aging skin care line marketed to date primarily through Sephora S.A. and its affiliates (Sephora) and QVC. In April 2014, our Algenist line launched at Nordstrom, our first high-end department store retail channel. In July 2014, our Algenist line launched at ULTA Beauty retail stores throughout the United States. We have also expanded our international distribution and are currently selling in over 2,000 retail stores in 17 countries including member countries of the EU, Mexico, Canada and China. In 2013, we further leveraged our innovative ingredient research and expertise by broadening the Algenist line to include products that use microalgae oil as a replacement for the essential oils currently used in skin care products.
In November 2013, we launched our second branded skin care line, EverDeep. EverDeep uses a new proprietary ingredient, Algasome" complex, and is sold online and via telephone driven by direct-to-consumer infomercial broadcasts. The skin care line utilizes a continuity program and auto-delivery options to strengthen the link with customers to drive repeat sales.
In the first quarter of 2014, we began selling our oil-based intermediate and ingredient products more broadly to customers in the oil field services market with the launch of our Encapso" lubricant. Our initial commercial use for Encapso" is as a biodegradable lubricant mud additive in oil and gas drilling.

Significant Partner Agreements
We currently have joint venture, joint development, supply and distribution arrangements with various strategic partners. We expect to enter into additional partnerships in each of our target markets to advance commercialization of our products and to expand our upstream and downstream capabilities. Upstream, we expect partners to provide research and development funding, capital for commercial manufacturing capacity and/or secure access to feedstock. Downstream, we expect partners to provide expanded distribution channels, product application testing, marketing expertise and/or long-term purchase commitments. Our current principal partnership and strategic arrangements include:
Bunge. In May 2011, we entered into a Joint Development Agreement (the JDA) with Bunge that has been extended through September 2014. Pursuant to the JDA, we and Bunge are jointly developing microbe-derived oils, and exploring the production of such oils from Brazilian sugarcane feedstock.
In anticipation of the Solazyme Bunge JVs formation, in May 2011, we granted Bunge Limited a warrant (the Bunge Warrant) to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $13.50 per share. The Bunge Warrant vested based on a number of milestones connected with the construction and initial operation of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant. As of June 30, 2014, the Bunge Warrant was vested as to 75% of the shares underlying the Bunge Warrant and the remaining 25% of the shares underlying the Bunge Warrant could no longer vest. The Warrant expires in May 2021.
In April 2012, we and Bunge formed the Solazyme Bunge JV to build, own and operate a commercial-scale renewable algal oil production facility (the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant) adjacent to Bunges Moema sugarcane mill in Brazil. The Solazyme Bunge JV Plant leverages our technology and Bunges sugarcane milling and natural oil processing capabilities to produce microalgae-based products. In addition, the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant has been designed to be expanded for further production in line with market demand. We expect this production facility to have an annual nameplate production capacity of 100,000 MT of oil. Construction of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant commenced in the second quarter of 2012 and was financed with equal equity contributions by both Bunge and Solazyme and over $100 million of project financing from the Brazilian Development Bank. In May 2014, the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant produced its first commercially saleable products on full-scale production lines, including 625,000 liter fermentation tanks. Both oil and Encapso" lubricant products have been manufactured; production is continuing and is expected to ramp toward nameplate capacity as we work to increase efficiency in unit operations, and balance production volumes with operating costs as we focus on higher value products. We expect that additional capital expenditures may be required to reach nameplate capacity depending on the product mix produced at the plant. As a condition of the Solazyme Bunge JV drawing funds under the loan in excess of amounts supported by bank guarantees, we may be required to provide a corporate guarantee of a portion of the loan in an amount that, when added to the amount supported by our bank guarantee, does not exceed our ownership percentage in the Solazyme Bunge JV.
In addition to forming the Solazyme Bunge JV in April 2012, we entered into a Development Agreement with the Solazyme Bunge JV to�continue�research and development activities that are intended to benefit the Solazyme Bunge JV, including activities in the areas of strain development, molecular biology and process development. The Development Agreement provides that the Solazyme Bunge JV will pay us a technology maintenance fee in recognition of our ongoing research investment in technology that would benefit the Solazyme Bunge JV. We also entered into a Technology Service Agreement with the Solazyme Bunge JV under which the Solazyme Bunge JV will pay us for technical services related to the operations of the plant, including, but not limited to, engineering support for plant operations, operation procedure consultation, product analysis and microbe performance monitoring and assessment. In the third quarter of 2013, the Solazyme Bunge JV also agreed to pay us to support its commercial activities, including, but not limited to, facilitating supply agreements on behalf of the Solazyme Bunge JV and providing regulatory support.
In November 2012, we entered into a joint venture expansion framework agreement with Bunge. This framework agreement sets forth the intent of the partners to expand joint venture-owned oil production capacity from the current 100,000 MT nameplate capacity under construction in Brazil to 300,000 MT by 2016 at select Bunge owned and operated processing facilities worldwide. In addition, we and Bunge amended the Joint Venture Agreement in October 2013 to expand the field and product portfolio of the Solazyme Bunge JV. We and Bunge intend to work together through joint market development to bring new, healthy, edible oils to the Brazilian market.
Refer to Note 8 and Note 10 in the accompanying notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the Bunge JDA, Joint Venture Agreement and Warrant.
ADM. In November 2012, we entered into a strategic collaboration agreement with ADM, establishing a collaboration for the production of algal triglyceride oil products at the Clinton Facility. The Clinton Facility is producing algal triglyceride oil products using our proprietary microbe-based catalysis technology. Feedstock for the facility is provided by ADMs adjacent wet mill. Under the terms of the strategic collaboration agreement, we pay ADM annual fees for use and operation of a portion of the Clinton Facility, a portion of which may be paid in our common stock. In addition, in January 2013 we granted to ADM a

27



warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock, which vests in equal monthly installments over five years, commencing in November 2013. In addition, in March 2013 we issued a series of warrants to ADM for payment in stock, in lieu of cash, at our election, of future annual fees for use and operation of a portion of the Clinton Facility. This facility uses corn sugars as a feedstock and currently has an initial target nameplate capacity of 20,000 MT per year of algal triglyceride oil products, which we are targeting to attain as we refocus the Clinton Facility on higher margin products such as Encapso" lubricant and otherwise balance production with operating expenses. We have an option to expand the nameplate capacity to 40,000 MT per year with the potential to further expand production to 100,000 MT per year. We are also working together with ADM to develop markets for the products produced at the Clinton Facility. Since the third quarter of 2013, downstream processing has been performed at a finishing facility in Galva, Iowa (Galva Facility), which is operated by our long-term partner, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Natural Processors, Inc. In January 2014, we began commercial scale production of our oils at the Clinton/Galva Facilities.
Mitsui. In February 2013, we entered into a multi-year agreement with Mitsui�& Co., Ltd. (Mitsui) to jointly develop triglyceride oils for use primarily in the oleochemical industry. The agreement includes further development of our myristic oil, a valuable raw material in the oleochemical industry, and additional oils that we are developing for the oleochemical and industrial sectors. End use applications may include renewable, high-performance polymer additives for plastic applications, lubricants and toiletry and household products.
Roquette. In November 2010, we entered into a joint venture agreement with Roquette, forming SRN. The purpose of SRN was to engage in manufacturing, distribution, sales, marketing and support of products and services related to the use of microalgae to which we have not applied our targeted recombinant technology in a fermentation production process to produce materials for use in the following fields: (1)�human foods and beverages; (2)�animal feed; and (3)�nutraceuticals. In June 2013, we and Roquette agreed to dissolve SRN and on July�18, 2013, SRN was dissolved.
Algenist Distribution Partners. In December 2010, we entered into a distribution contract with Sephora EMEA to distribute our Algenist product line in Sephora EMEA stores in certain countries in Europe and select countries in the Middle East and Asia. In January 2011, we also made arrangements with Sephora Americas to sell our Algenist product line in Sephora Americas stores (which currently includes locations in the United States and Canada). In October 2011, we launched our Algenist product line at Sephora inside jcpenney stores in the United States. In March 2011, we entered into an agreement with QVC, Inc. (QVC) and launched the sale of our Algenist product line through QVCs multimedia platform. In July 2014, we entered into an agreement with ULTA Beauty to sell our Algenist�line in over 700 of its retail stores throughout the United States.
Unilever. In October 2011, we entered into a joint development agreement with Unilever (our fourth agreement altogether) which expanded our current research and development efforts. In September 2014, we and Unilever extended this joint development agreement through September�30, 2015. In September 2013, we and Unilever entered into a commercial supply agreement for at least 10,000 MT of our algal oil. In May 2014, Unilever announced the initial introduction of our sustainable algal oil into one of its biggest soap brands, Lux.
AkzoNobel. In May 2013 we entered into a joint development agreement with AkzoNobel, a leading global paints and coatings company and a major producer of specialty chemicals, targeting the development and commercial sales of triglyceride oils for use by AkzoNobel in its surface chemistry and decorative paints businesses. Product development efforts began in the second half of 2013, and in July 2014 we entered into a research and development plan with AkzoNobel which extends through June 2017.
Financial Operations Overview
Revenues
We are commercializing our products as intermediate/ingredient products and consumer products. Intermediate/ingredient products encompass a portfolio of ingredient products targeted at customers in the fuels and chemicals, nutrition and oil field services markets. Within consumer products, we are currently selling consumer brands into the skin and personal care market with two branded skin and personal care offerings, our Algenist and EverDeep lines. Prior to commercialization of Algenist in 2011, our revenues were primarily from collaborative research and government grants. Through the end of 2013, our product revenues were entirely from the sale of branded products into the skin and personal care market, providing us with the highest gross margin within our target markets. In the first quarter of 2014, we began to sell intermediate and ingredient products more broadly into the fuels and chemicals and oil field services markets as we began to commercially produce and distribute products from our Clinton/Galva Facilities.
"
Research and Development Program Revenues

28



Revenues from research and development (R&D) programs are recognized in the period during which the related costs are incurred, provided that the conditions under which the government grants and agreements were provided have been met and only perfunctory obligations are outstanding. We currently have active R&D programs with commercial partners and governmental agencies. These R&D programs are entered into pursuant to agreements and grants that generally provide payment for certain types of expenditures in return for research and development activities over a contractually defined period. Revenues related to R&D programs include reimbursable expenses and payments received for full-time equivalent employee services recognized over the related performance periods for each of the contracts. We are required to perform research and development activities as specified in each respective agreement based on the terms and performance periods set forth in the agreements as outlined above. R&D program revenues represented 34% and 39% of our total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to 55% and 52% of our total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. Revenues from commercial and strategic partner development agreements represented almost 100% of total R&D revenues for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.
"
Product Revenues
Product revenues consist of revenues from products sold commercially into each of our target markets.
We began our commercialization in the skin and personal care markets within Solazyme Consumer Products. Starting in 2011, we recognized revenues from the sale of our first commercial product line, Algenist, which we distributed to the skin and personal care end market through arrangements with Sephora S.A. and its affiliates (Sephora), QVC and Space NK in 17 countries including the U.S., member countries of the EU, Mexico, Canada and China, as well as direct-to-consumer sales via the Internet. In the first quarter of 2014, we launched our Encapso" lubricant, a biodegradable lubricant for drilling fluids in the oil field services market, Tailored" oil products to customers that use our oil-based intermediate products in the chemicals market, as well as fuel blend sales as part of our effort to build our fuels marketing and commercial development programs; preliminary program efforts include the sale and transfer of blended fuels to private (non-government) customers. We expect our product revenues to increase as the demand for our consumer product lines grow and as we commercialize our portfolio of Tailored" oil products targeted at customers in the chemicals markets, our advanced biofuel blends in the fuels markets, Encapso" lubricant in the oil field services market as well as our food products in nutrition markets.
Product revenues represented 66% and 61% of our total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Product revenues represented 45% and 48% of our total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.
Costs and Operating Expenses
Costs and operating expenses consist of cost of product revenue, research and development expenses and sales, general and administrative expenses. Personnel-related expenses, including non-cash stock-based compensation, costs associated with our strategic collaboration agreements as well as other third-party contractors and contract manufacturers, reimbursable equipment and costs associated with government contracts, consultants and facility costs, comprise the significant components of these expenses.
"
Cost of Product Revenue
Through the end of 2013, cost of product revenue consisted primarily of third-party contractor costs associated with packaging, distribution and production of Algenist products, internal labor, shipping, supplies and other overhead costs associated with production of Alguronic Acid, a microalgae-based active ingredient, and microalgae oil used in our Algenist product line. Beginning in the first quarter of 2014, cost of product revenue also includes manufacturing and related third party contract costs associated with the production of our oil-based intermediate/ingredient products, such as Encapso" lubricant, Tailored" oils and fuels. Prior to our products' meeting any applicable regulatory requirements, all manufacturing and related production costs are recorded as research and development expenses. In the first quarter of 2014, our Encapso" lubricant and one of our Tailored" oils met applicable regulatory requirements, and we began capitalizing certain production costs to inventory. From time to time, certain process development costs related to the manufacturing scale up to nameplate capacity may also be expensed to research and development expense. We expect our total cost of product revenue to increase in correlation with increased product sales as the demand for our consumer product lines grows and as we commercialize our portfolio of oil-based intermediate/ingredient products targeted at customers in the fuels and chemicals, oil field services and nutrition markets.

Research and Development

29



Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred for internal projects as well as partner-funded collaborative research and development activities with commercial and strategic partners and governmental and JV entities (partners). Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs including non-cash stock-based compensation, costs associated with our strategic collaboration agreements as well as other third-party contract manufacturers, reimbursable equipment and costs associated with government contracts. In addition, research and development expenses include certain costs associated with contract manufacturers' facilities, feedstock and supplies, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment used in the development of our algal oil products as well as manufacturing process as we scale up our manufacturing facilities to commercial scale production.
We expense our research and development costs as they are incurred. Our research and development programs are undertaken to advance our overall industrial biotechnology platform that enables us to produce high-value algal oils. Although our partners fund certain development activities, they benefit from advances in our technology platform as a whole, including costs funded by other development programs. Therefore, costs for such activities have not been separated as these costs have all been determined to be part of our total research and development related activity.
Our research and development efforts are directed at (1)�identifying, isolating and further optimizing strains of microalgae to achieve high cell densities, high yield converting sugar to product and high productivity rates compared to other alternatives; (2)�tailoring the oil outputs to meet specific market needs; (3)�product and process development projects aimed at reducing the cost of oil production; and (4)�scale-up of commercial scale production at the Clinton/Galva Facilities as well as product and process development activities in our Peoria Facility. Our research and development projects also include activities as specified in our government grants and contracts and development agreements with commercial and strategic partners. We expect to continue to use our Peoria Facility for joint development activities, to provide samples for market development as well as for commercial production for products such as our AlgaViaTM brand of whole algal powders and flours.
"
Sales, General and Administrative
Sales, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs including non-cash stock-based compensation related to our executive management, corporate administration, sales and marketing functions, professional services and administrative and facility overhead expenses. These expenses also include costs related to our business development and sales functions, including marketing programs. Professional services consist primarily of consulting, external accounting, legal and investor relations fees associated with operating as a publicly-traded company. We expect sales, general and administrative expenses to increase as we incur additional costs related to commercializing our business, including our growth and expansion in Brazil.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Interest and Other Income
Interest and other income consist primarily of interest income earned on marketable securities and cash balances. Our interest income will vary for each reporting period depending on our average investment balances during the period and market interest rates.
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists primarily of interest expense related to our debt and debt conversion expense incurred to induce 2018 Note holders to exchange their 2018 Notes. As of September 30, 2014 and December�31, 2013, our outstanding debt, net of debt discounts, was approximately $201.1 million and $93.5 million, respectively. We expect interest expense to increase primarily as a result of issuing $149.5 million of 5.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2019 (the 2019 Notes) in April 2014, and to fluctuate with changes in our debt obligations.
Gain (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability
Gain (loss) from change in fair value of warrant liability consisted primarily of the change in the fair value of a common stock warrant issued to Bunge Limited. The warrant liability was remeasured to fair value at each balance sheet date and/or upon vesting, and the change in the then-current aggregate fair value of the warrants was recorded as a gain or loss from the change in the fair value in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The warrant liability was reclassified to additional paid-in capital upon conversion of redeemable preferred stock, or vesting of common warrant shares. In April 2012, the first and second tranches of the common stock warrant issued to Bunge Limited had vested, and the related warrant liability of $4.6 million was reclassified to additional paid-in capital and was no longer adjusted to fair value. In the first quarter of

30



2014, the warrant liability associated with the third tranche of the common stock warrant issued to Bunge Limited was adjusted to $0, as the third tranche could no longer vest.
Gain (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities����
Gain (loss) from change in fair value of derivative liabilities consists of the changes in the fair value of the embedded derivatives related to the early conversion payment features of the 6.00% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2018 (the 2018 Notes) and the 2019 Notes (collectively with the 2018 Notes, the Notes) issued in January 2013 and April 2014, respectively.
Income (Loss) from Equity Method Investments
Income (loss) from our equity method investment in the Solazyme Bunge JV is recorded in our income statement as Income (Loss) from Equity Method Investments. In the nine months ended September�30, 2013, we recorded a loss of $1.4 million to Income (loss) from equity method investments, net related to the dissolution of SRN.
Income Taxes
Since inception, we have incurred net losses and have not recorded any U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. income tax provisions. We have recorded a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that they will not be realized.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical accounting policies are those accounting policies that management believes are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results and require managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.�Our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K includes a description of certain critical accounting policies, including those with respect to revenue recognition, inventories, stock-based compensation and income taxes.�There have been no material changes to the Companys critical accounting policies described in the Companys 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as described below:
Inventories - Beginning in 2014, inventories included manufacturing and related third party contract costs associated with the production of our intermediate/ingredient products that met applicable regulatory requirements. Prior to our products' meeting applicable regulatory requirements, the manufacturing and related production costs of such products are charged to research and development expenses.
Product Revenue - Product revenue is recognized from the sale of our branded consumer products, which currently includes our Algenist and EverDeep skin care lines, and from the sale of intermediate/ingredient products including our Tailored" oil products and fuel blend sales, the latter of which is part of our effort to build fuels marketing and commercial development programs.

Our total revenues increased by $6.9 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, due to $6.8 million of increased product sales and $0.1 million of increased R&D program revenues in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The increase in product revenues was due to commercial sales into the fuels and chemicals and oil field services markets of $4.8 million, which includes $1.3 million of product revenue from the Solazyme Bunge JV in the third quarter of 2014 and a $2.0 million increase in skin care product sales primarily due to new retail customers and increased consumer demand. We began to sell more broadly into the fuels and chemicals and oil field services markets starting in the first quarter of 2014. These sales included our commercial launch of Encapso" lubricant and Tailored"

31



oils as well as fuel blend sales as part of our effort to build fuels marketing and commercial development programs, which preliminarily includes the sale and transfer of blended fuels to private (non-government) customers.
We expect product revenues in the fuels and chemicals and oil field services markets to increase as a percentage of total net product revenues as we continue to expand our large-scale production.
R&D program revenues increased by $0.1 million, due primarily to an increase in revenues from development agreements with strategic partners, offset by a decrease in revenues from development agreements with the Solazyme Bunge JV.
Our revenues from development agreements with strategic partners and the Solazyme Bunge JV fluctuate due to timing of the development work performed and achievement of contract milestones defined in these agreements. We are currently engaged in development activities with multiple strategic partners and the Solazyme Bunge JV and expect that our R&D program revenues will continue, as we continue this work and add new strategic partners. In the near term, we dont expect government program revenues to increase. As we enter into new agreements with strategic partners or government programs, we expect that quarterly trends may fluctuate based on the timing of program activities and achievement of milestones with strategic partners.
The inherent flexibility of our technology platform and the broad usage of triglyceride oils across multiple industries allow us to approach a wide range of customers across myriad end markets. We expect our product revenues to increase as we commercialize our intermediate/ingredient products encompassing a portfolio of product revenues to total revenues as we expand our manufacturing capacity and related oil product offerings in the fuels and chemicals, oil field services and nutrition markets.

Beginning in early 2014, cost of product revenue includes 2014 production costs associated with our Encapso" lubricant and Tailored" oil, as well as renewable fuels purchased in connection with our fuels marketing and commercial development programs, as we began to sell more broadly to customers in the oil field services market and fuels and chemicals market. Prior to meeting applicable regulatory requirements for these products and during scale-up of the manufacturing process to nameplate capacity, certain Encapso" lubricant and Tailored" oil manufacturing and related production costs were charged to research and development expenses in 2013 and throughout the scale-up period. Certain inventories manufactured prior to regulatory approval are charged to research and development expense in periods prior to when those inventories are sold.
Cost of product revenue increased $5.1 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due to sales of Tailored" oil and blended fuel sales that began in early 2014 and increased Algenist product sales. Gross margins decreased from 70% in the third quarter of 2013 to 43% in the third quarter of 2014 primarily due to the higher mix of lower gross margin intermediate and ingredient product sales of fuels, Encapso" lubricant and Tailored" oils. The gross margin related to Algenist products was 69% in the third quarter of 2014 compared to 70% in the same period in 2013, impacted by changes in customer and product mix. The gross margin for our products sold in the fuels, chemicals and oil field services was 7% in the third quarter of 2014, which excludes certain production costs related to the scale-up of plant operations which are recorded to research and development expense. The gross margins for our intermediate and ingredient products are expected to be lower than our historical margins, which were based on our branded skin and personal care products. We will continue to sell our highest gross margin branded skin and personal care products and we expect to ramp up our production and sales of intermediate and ingredient products. We expect our overall gross margin to decline as our product mix shifts more to intermediate and ingredient product sales into the fuels and chemicals, nutrition and oil field services markets.
We expect our total cost of production for products manufactured at the Clinton/Galva Facilities will increase as we continue commercial production for the fuels and chemicals, oil field services and nutrition markets and as our production

32



volume ramps up as we refocus the Clinton Facility on higher margin products such as Encapso" lubricant and otherwise balance production volumes with operating expenses. We also expect that our cost of production as a percentage of revenue may be higher in the early stages of production, depending on mix of products and as we ramp toward nameplate capacity. As production volume increases our cost per MT produced is expected to decrease.

Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses increased by $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, due primarily to $1.8 million of increased personnel-related and facilities-related costs, $1.1 million of costs related to product development of new algal products and AlgaViaTM food ingredients as well as scale-up of commercial production at the Clinton/Galva Facilities.
Personnel and facilities-related costs increased as a result of headcount growth to support the Clinton, Galva and Solazyme Bunge JV activities as well as Peoria manufacturing and collaborative research activities. Personnel-related costs include non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to $1.5 million in the same period in 2013.
We plan to continue to make investments in research and development for the foreseeable future as we continue (1) to identify, isolate and further optimize strains of microalgae to achieve high cell densities, high yield converting sugar to product and high productivity rates compared to other alternatives; (2) to tailor the oil outputs to meet specific market needs; (3) to engage in product and process development projects aimed at reducing the cost of oil production; and (4) to scale-up new products at the Clinton/Galva Facilities to commercial scale, as well as product development activities. We do not expect a significant increase in our research and development expenses in the near term as we scale up to commercial production.
Sales, General and Administrative Expenses
Our sales, general and administrative expenses increased by $10.2 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to net expenses associated with a litigation settlement of $3.7 million, increased personnel-related costs of $2.6�million, increased marketing and promotional costs of $2.0�million and increased external legal and outside services of $1.1 million. During the third quarter of 2014, we and Therabotanics, LLC agreed to settle our litigation for $4.8 million, net of insurance reimbursements of $0.2 million, of which $0.9 million was accrued for as of June 30, 2014.
Personnel-related costs increased due to headcount growth primarily related to commercialization of our products. Personnel-related costs include non-cash stock-based compensation of $4.3�million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to $3.7�million in the same period in 2013. Marketing and promotional costs increased mainly due to Algenist and intermediates/ingredients product launches. We expect our sales, general and administrative expenses to increase as we hire additional personnel and enhance our infrastructure to support the anticipated commercialization into the fuels and chemicals, oil field services and nutrition markets domestically and in Brazil. We also expect marketing and promotional costs to increase as we commercialize into the fuels and chemicals, oil field services and nutritional markets.

Interest expense
Interest expense increased by $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due to $2.3 million of increased interest expense as a result of the issuance of the 2019 Notes in April 2014 and $0.2 million of reduced capitalized interest related to the Companys investment in the Solazyme Bunge JV, partially offset by $0.8�million of reduced interest expense resulting from early conversions of the 2018 Notes. We expect interest expense to increase primarily as a result of issuing the 2019 Notes in April 2014, and to fluctuate with changes in our debt obligations.
Loss from Equity Method Investments
Loss from equity method investment increased by $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to the increase in our proportionate share of the net loss from the Solazyme Bunge JV. We expect the loss from our equity method investment to increase as the Solazyme Bunge JV continues commissioning of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant and increases commercial-scale production in Brazil.
Gain from Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability
Gain/loss from the change in fair value of warrant liability was $0 in the third quarter of 2014 compared to a $0.2 million gain from the change in fair value of warrant liability in the same period in 2013. The change in fair value of warrant liability is related to the fair value of the unvested warrant issued to Bunge Limited. The warrant vests in three separate tranches, each contingent upon the achievement of specific performance-based milestones related to the formation and operations of the Solazyme Bunge JV. The unvested warrant shares were recorded as a liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning in the second quarter of 2012, and the unvested portion of the warrant continued to be remeasured to fair value at each balance sheet date and reclassified to additional paid-in capital upon vesting. In the second quarter of 2012, 750,000 warrant shares (first and second tranche) vested and were reclassified to additional paid-in capital. Beginning in the first quarter of 2014, the warrant liability associated with the third tranche of the common stock warrant issued to Bunge Limited was adjusted to $0, as the third tranche could no longer vest.
Gain (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities
Gain from change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $6.2 million in the third quarter of 2014 was due to the change in the fair value of the embedded derivatives related to the early conversion payment features of the Notes issued in January 2013 and April 2014, compared to a $2.8 million loss in the same period in 2013. At each reporting period, we remeasure these embedded derivatives at fair value, which is included as components of convertible debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We used a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair values of the embedded derivatives related to the early conversion payment features of the Notes. Changes in certain inputs into the model may have a significant impact on changes in the estimated fair values of the embedded derivatives. We expect that the gain or loss from the change in the fair values of these derivative liabilities will fluctuate with the change in our stock price, the trading price of the Notes, certain other inputs to the Monte Carlo simulation model and early conversions by Note holders.

Our total revenues increased by $17.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, due to $14.3 million of increased product sales and a $3.1 million increase in R&D program revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The increase in product revenues was due to new commercial sales into the fuels and chemicals and oil field services markets of $10.2 million, which includes $2.7 million of product revenue from the Solazyme Bunge JV in the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and a $4.1 million increase in skin care product sales primarily due to new retail customers, new product offerings and increased consumer demand. We began to sell more broadly into the fuels and chemicals and oil field services markets starting in the first quarter of 2014. These sales included our commercial launch of Encapso" lubricant and Tailored" oils as well as fuel blend sales as part of our effort to build fuels marketing and commercial development programs, which preliminarily includes the sale and transfer of blended fuels to private (non-government) customers.
We expect product revenues in the fuels and chemicals and oil field services markets to increase as a percentage of total net product revenues as we continue to expand our large-scale production.
R&D program revenues increased by $3.1 million, due primarily to an increase in revenues from development agreements with the Solazyme Bunge JV, partially offset by a lower milestone achievement recognized from a strategic partner in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 of $1.5 million as compared to a $4.0 million milestone achievement recognized during the same period in 2013.
Our revenues from development agreements with strategic partners and the Solazyme Bunge JV fluctuate due to timing of the development work performed and achievement of contract milestones defined in these agreements.

Prior to meeting applicable regulatory requirements for these products and during scale-up of the manufacturing process to nameplate capacity, certain Encapso" lubricant and Tailored" oil manufacturing and related production costs were charged to research and development expenses. Certain inventories manufactured prior to regulatory approval are charged to research and development expense in periods prior to when those inventories are sold.
Cost of product revenue increased $10.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due to sales of Tailored" oil and blended fuel sales that began in early 2014 and increased Algenist product sales. Gross margins decreased from 68% during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to 48% in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 due primarily due to the higher mix of lower gross margin intermediate and ingredient product sales of fuels, Encapso" lubricant and Tailored" oils. The gross margin related to Algenist product sales was 69% in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to 68% in the same period in 2013, impacted by changes in customer and product mix. The gross margin for our products sold in the fuels, chemicals and oil field services was 12% in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 impacted favorably by the sale of inventories that were expensed previously to research and development expense in 2013. In addition, the fuels, chemicals and oil field services gross margin excludes certain production costs related to the scale-up of plant operations which are recorded to research and development expense. The gross margins for our intermediate and ingredient products are expected to be lower than our historical margins, which were based on our branded skin and personal care products. We will continue to sell our highest gross margin branded skin and personal care products and we expect to ramp up our production and sales of intermediate and ingredient products. We expect our overall gross margin to decline as our product mix shifts more to intermediate and ingredient product sales into the fuels and chemicals, nutrition and oil field services markets.
We expect our total cost of production for products manufactured at the Clinton/Galva Facilities will increase as we continue commercial production for the fuels and chemicals, oil field services and nutrition markets and as our production volume ramps up as we refocus the Clinton Facility on higher margin products such as Encapso" lubricant and otherwise balance production volumes with operating expenses. We also expect that our cost of production as a percentage of revenue may be higher in the early stages of production, depending on mix of products and as we ramp toward nameplate capacity. As production volume increases our cost per MT produced is expected to decrease.

During the third quarter of 2014, we and Therabotanics, LLC agreed to settle our litigation for $4.8 million, net of insurance reimbursements of $0.2 million.
Personnel-related and facilities-related costs increased due to headcount growth primarily related to commercialization of our products. Personnel-related costs include non-cash stock-based compensation of $13.0�million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $10.3�million in the same period in 2013. Marketing and promotional costs increased mainly due to Algenist product and intermediates/ingredients product launches during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.

Interest expense increased by $4.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, due to $4.5 million of increased interest expense as a result of the issuance of the 2019 Notes in April 2014 and $1.8 million of debt conversion expense incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, partially offset by $2.2�million of reduced interest expense resulting from early conversions of the 2018 Notes. In June 2014, we entered into note exchange agreements with certain Holders of our 2018 Notes pursuant to which such Holders agreed to exchange approximately $17.5 million in aggregate principal amount of 2018 Notes, together with accrued interest thereon through the settlement date of the Exchange, with us for a total 2.4 million shares of our common stock. Debt conversion expense represents the fair value of all common stock transferred in the Exchange in excess of the fair value of common stock issuable pursuant to the original conversion terms. The fair value of the common stock was measured as of the date the Exchange offer was accepted by the Holders.
Loss from Equity Method Investments
Loss from equity method investments increased by $9.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to a $11.4 million increase in our proportionate share of the net loss from the Solazyme Bunge JV, partially offset by a $1.3 million loss recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 related to the dissolution of SRN. We expect the loss from our equity method investment to increase as the Solazyme Bunge JV continues commissioning of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant and increases commercial-scale production in Brazil.
Gain (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability
There was a $0.7 million gain from the change in fair value of warrant liability in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to a $0.4 million loss from the change in fair value of warrant liability in the same period in 2013. The change in fair value of warrant liability is related to the fair value of the unvested warrant issued to Bunge Limited. The warrant vests in three separate tranches, each contingent upon the achievement of specific performance-based milestones related to the formation and operations of the Solazyme Bunge JV. The unvested warrant shares were recorded as a liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet beginning in the second quarter of 2012, and the unvested portion of the warrant continued to be remeasured to fair value at each balance sheet date and reclassified to additional paid-in capital upon vesting. In the second

37



quarter of 2012, 750,000 warrant shares (first and second tranche) vested and were reclassified to additional paid-in capital. Beginning in the first quarter of 2014, the warrant liability associated with the third tranche of the common stock warrant issued to Bunge Limited was adjusted to $0, as the third tranche could no longer vest.
Gain (Loss) from Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities
Gain from change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $6.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was due primarily to the change in the fair value of the embedded derivatives related to the early conversion payment features of the Notes issued in January 2013 and April 2014, compared to a $4.4 million loss in the same period in 2013. At each reporting period, we remeasure these embedded derivatives at fair value, which is included as a component of convertible debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We used a Monte Carlo simulation model to estimate the fair values of the embedded derivatives related to the early conversion payment features of the Notes. Changes in certain inputs into the model may have a significant impact on changes in the estimated fair values of the embedded derivatives. We expect that the gain or loss from the change in the fair values of these derivative liabilities will fluctuate with the change in our stock price, the trading price of the Notes, other certain inputs to the Monte Carlo simulation model and early conversions by Note holders.

Sources and Uses of Capital
Since our inception, we have incurred significant net losses, and as of September 30, 2014, we had an accumulated deficit of $423.6 million. We anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses as we continue the scale-up of our manufacturing activities, support commercialization activities for our products and continue to support our research and development activities. In addition, we may acquire additional manufacturing facilities, expand or build out our current manufacturing facilities and/or build additional manufacturing facilities. We are unable to predict the extent of any future losses or when we will become profitable, if at all. We expect to continue making investments in research and development and manufacturing, and expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase as we begin and ramp up commercialization. As a result, we will need to generate significant revenues from product sales, collaborative research and joint development activities, licensing fees and other revenue arrangements to achieve profitability. To date, our sources for capital are as follows:
Strategic Partners and Government
In January 2010, we obtained a grant from the DOE to receive up to $21.8�million for reimbursement of expenses incurred towards building, operating, and optimizing a pilot-scale integrated biorefinery, which has allowed us to develop integrated U.S.-based production capabilities at the Peoria Facility to make oil for algae-derived biofuel. Under the terms of the grant, we are responsible for funding an additional $8.4�million. The Company is in the process of preparing its final report and performing other similar tasks associated with is completion of this program.

38



We purchased the Peoria Facility in May 2011. We began fermentation operations in the fourth quarter of 2011 and commissioned our integrated biorefinery in June 2012, funded in part by the DOE grant described above. In connection with the closing of the Peoria Facility acquisition, we entered into a promissory note, mortgage and security agreement with the seller in the initial amount of $5.5 million. In March 2013, we paid in full the outstanding principal on this promissory note.
In April 2012, we entered into the Solazyme Bunge JV, which is jointly capitalized by us and Bunge, to construct and operate an oil production facility in Brazil that will utilize our proprietary technology to produce oil products from sugar feedstock provided by Bunge. Through October 31, 2014, we contributed approximately $60.3�million in capital to the Solazyme Bunge JV, and we may need to contribute additional capital to this project. In February 2013, the Solazyme Bunge JV entered a loan agreement with the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) under which it may borrow up to R$245.7 million (approximately USD $100.8 million based on the exchange rate as of September 30, 2014). As a condition of the Solazyme Bunge JV drawing funds under the loan in excess of amounts supported by bank guarantees, we may be required to provide a corporate guarantee for a portion of the loan (in an amount that when added to the amount supported by our bank guarantee does not to exceed our ownership percentage in the Solazyme Bunge JV). The BNDES funding is supporting the Solazyme Bunge JVs first commercial-scale production facility in Brazil, which will reduce the capital requirements funded directly by us and Bunge. We expect to scale up additional manufacturing capacity in a capital-efficient manner by signing additional agreements whereby our partners will invest capital and operational resources in building manufacturing capacity, while also providing access to feedstock. We expect to evaluate the optimal amount of capital expenditures that we agree to fund on a case-by-case basis. These events may require us to access additional capital through equity or debt offerings. If we are unable to access additional capital, our growth may be limited due to the inability to build out additional manufacturing capacity.
In November 2012, we entered into a strategic collaboration agreement with ADM, whereby we have agreed to pay ADM annual fees for use and operation of a portion of its commercial scale facility in Clinton, Iowa, a portion of which may be paid in our common stock. In addition, in March 2013 we issued a series of warrants to ADM for payment in stock or cash, at our election, of future annual fees for use and operation of a portion of the Clinton Facility. During 2013, we made payments to ADM in both common stock and cash.
Commercial Banks
On May�11, 2011, we entered into a loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank that provided for a $20.0 million credit facility (the SVB facility) consisting of (i)�a $15.0 million term loan (the term loan) and (ii)�a $5.0 million revolving facility (the SVB revolving facility).�In the first quarter of 2013, the SVB facility was terminated when we paid in full the outstanding principal and interest on the term loan using proceeds from the revolving facility with HSBC Bank, USA, National Association (HSBC) we entered into in March 2013 as described below.
On March�26, 2013, we entered into a credit facility with HSBC (the HSBC facility), which provides for a $30.0 million revolving facility for working capital, letters of credit denominated in U.S. dollars or a foreign currency and other general corporate purposes, in May 2013 we entered into an amendment to increase the HSBC facility to $35.0 million, and in March 2014 we amended the HSBC facility to extend the maturity date to May 31, 2016. Also on March�26, 2013, we drew down approximately $10.4 million under the HSBC facility to repay the outstanding term loan plus accrued interest under the SVB facility. On June 27, 2014, we paid in full the outstanding principal and interest due under the HSBC facility. The HSBC facility is unsecured unless (i)�we take action that could cause or permit obligations under the HSBC facility not to constitute senior debt (as defined in the indenture related to the 2018 Notes dated as of January�24, 2013 by and between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee), (ii)�we breach financial covenants that require us and our subsidiaries to maintain cash and unrestricted cash equivalents at all times of not less than $35.0 million plus one hundred ten percent of the aggregate dollar equivalent amount of outstanding advances and letters of credit under the HSBC facility, or (iii)�there is a payment default under the HSBC facility or bankruptcy or insolvency events relating to us. A portion of the HSBC facility supports the bank guarantee issued to BNDES in May 2013. Therefore, approximately $20.5 million of the HSBC facility remained available as of September 30, 2014, and we were in compliance with all the financial covenants of the HSBC facility.
Private and Public Offerings
In January 2013, we issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2018 Notes in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 2018 Notes 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 2018 Notes are convertible into our common stock and will mature on February�1, 2018, unless earlier repurchased or converted. We may not redeem the 2018 Notes prior to maturity. The initial conversion price is approximately $8.26 per share of common stock and, under certain circumstances, the 2018 Note holders will be entitled to additional payments upon conversion. The 2018 Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to February�1, 2018 into shares of our common stock at the then-applicable conversion rate. The conversion rate is initially 121.1240 shares of common stock per

39



$1,000 principal amount of 2018 Notes. In the event the 2018 Notes are converted prior to November�1, 2016 (other than conversions in connection with certain fundamental changes described below), in addition to the shares deliverable upon conversion, the holders are entitled to receive an early conversion payment of $83.33 per $1,000 principal amount of 2018 Notes surrendered for conversion that may be settled, at our election, in cash or, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, in shares of our common stock. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture entered into with the trustee), 2018 Note holders may require that we repurchase for cash all or part of their 2018 Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2018 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, if fundamental changes occur, we may be required in certain circumstances to increase the conversion rate for any 2018 Notes converted in connection with such fundamental changes by a specified number of shares of our common stock.
On June�19, 2014, we entered into note exchange agreements (the Exchange Agreements) with certain holders of the 2018 Notes pursuant to which such holders agreed to exchange approximately $17.5 million in aggregate principal amount of their 2018 Notes, together with accrued interest thereon through the settlement date of the Exchange Agreements, with us for 2,409,964 shares of our common stock. The Exchange Agreements settled on June�30, 2014. As of September30, 2014, we had issued approximately 8.3�million shares of our common stock to settle both the 2018 Note conversions and early conversion payments, including the settlements under the Exchange Agreements. We had $61.6 million aggregate principal amount of 2018 Notes outstanding as of September 30, 2014.
On April 1, 2014, we issued $149.5 million aggregate principal amount 2019 Notes in a public offering pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement. The 2019 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.00% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on October 1, 2014. The 2019 Notes are convertible into our common stock and will mature on October 1, 2019, unless earlier repurchased or converted. We may not redeem the 2019 Notes prior to maturity. The initial conversion price of the 2019 Notes is approximately $13.20 per share of common stock) and, under certain circumstances, the 2019 Note holders will be entitled to additional payments upon conversion. The 2019 Notes are convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to January 1, 2018 into shares of our common stock at the then-applicable conversion rate. The conversion rate is initially 75.7576 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes. In the event the 2019 Notes are converted prior to January 1, 2018 (other than conversions in connection with certain fundamental changes described below), in addition to the shares deliverable upon conversion, the holders are entitled to receive an early conversion payment of $83.33 per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes surrendered for conversion that may be settled, at our election, in cash, or subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, in shares of our common stock. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture entered into with the trustee), 2019 Note holders may require that we repurchase for cash all or part of their Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, if fundamental changes occur, we may be required in certain circumstances to increase the conversion rate for any 2019 Notes converted in connection with such fundamental changes by a specified number of shares of our common stock. We had $149.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2019 Notes outstanding as of September 30, 2014.
On April 1, 2014, the Company also issued 5,750,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at $11.00 per share (the "Common Stock Offering") in a public offering pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement. The net proceeds from the Common Stock Offering were $59.3 million, after deducting underwriter discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company.
We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, revenue from product sales and net proceeds from the issuance of the 2018 Notes and 2019 Notes (collectively, the Notes) and net proceeds received from the Common Stock Offering will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next 12 months. However, our liquidity assumptions may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available financial resources sooner than we currently expect. We may elect to raise additional funds within this period of time through public or private debt or equity financings and/or additional collaborations.
Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including those set forth under Risk Factors elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We may not be able to secure additional financing to meet our funding requirements on acceptable terms, if at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, dilution to our existing stockholders may result. If we are unable to obtain additional funds, we will have to reduce our operating costs and delay our manufacturing and research and development programs.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities of $79.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily reflects a loss of $117.3 million, aggregate non-cash charges of $36.9 million and a net change of $0.9 million in our net operating assets and

40



liabilities. Non-cash charges included stock-based compensation, loss from equity method investments, revaluations of our warrant liability and derivative liabilities, depreciation and amortization, net amortization of premiums on marketable securities, debt conversion expense and debt discount and loan fee amortization. We expect stock-based compensation and revaluation of our derivative liability to fluctuate with the change in our stock price and other factors. We expect loss from equity method investments and depreciation expense to increase as construction and commissioning of the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant is completed and production of commercial products at the Solazyme Bunge JV Plant and the Clinton/Galva Facilities is ramped up.
The net change in our operating assets and liabilities was primarily a result of increased accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $11.4 million, decreased other assets of $3.6 million, partially offset by increased inventories of $5.6 million and increased accounts receivable and unbilled revenue of $8.2 million. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased due to increased scale-up activities at the Clinton/Galva Facilities, the litigation settlement with Therabotanics, LLC, additional interest expense accrued as a result of the issuance of 2019 Notes in April 2014 and increased legal related costs. Other assets decreased due to amortization of a deferred rent asset. Inventories increased due primarily to commercial launch of intermediate/ingredient products, including Encapso" lubricant, Tailored" oils and fuels. Accounts receivables and unbilled revenues increased due primarily to the commercial launch of Encapso" lubricant, Tailored" oils and fuel blends and timing of payments received under our R&D programs.
Cash used in operating activities of $56.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflect a loss of $83.1 million, and a net change of $4.8 million in our net operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by aggregate non-cash charges of $31.0 million. Non-cash charges primarily included $14.5 million of stock-based compensation, a $5.5 million loss on equity method investments, $4.4 million related to the revaluation of our derivative liability, $3.6 million of depreciation and amortization, $1.3 million of net amortization of premiums on marketable securities and $1.2 million of debt discount and loan fee amortization. The net change in our operating assets and liabilities was primarily a result of increased accounts receivable and unbilled revenue of $6.3 million, increased deferred revenues of $2.2 million, increased inventories of $1.6 million, and increased accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $0.9 million. Accounts receivable and unbilled revenue increased primarily due to billing related to research and development agreements entered into in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and timing of payments received on accounts receivables from strategic partners. Deferred revenues increased due primarily to the timing of payments received under our R&D programs. Inventories increased to meet increased consumer demand and due to the expansion of our skincare line. The net decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities was due to payments made for employee bonuses and expenditures made to complete the buildout of the integrated biorefineries (in Peoria and in the South San Francisco pilot plant) partially funded by the DOE and CEC, partially offset by interest accrued on our Notes.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
In the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cash used in investing activities was $116.2 million, primarily as a result of $78.6 million of net marketable securities purchases, $30.6 million of capital contributed to the Solazyme Bunge JV, $5.6 million of capital expenditures related primarily to equipment installed at the Peoria and Clinton/Galva Facilities, a $0.7 million letter of credit obtained for a lease agreement and $0.6 million of interest capitalized related to the Solazyme Bunge JV.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2013, cash used in investing activities was $25.7 million, primarily as a result of $10.9 million of net marketable securities purchases, $7.4 million of capital contributed to the Solazyme Bunge JV and SRN and $6.5 million of capital expenditures related primarily to equipment installed at the Clinton Facility.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
In the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cash provided by financing activities was $201.1 million, primarily due to $202.7 million of proceeds received from the issuance of the 2019 Notes and Common Stock Offering, net of underwriting discounts and debt and offering issue costs and $8.9 million of proceeds received from common stock issuances pursuant to our equity plans, partially offset by $10.4 million of principal debt payments.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2013, cash provided by financing activities was $118.9 million, primarily due to $119.2 million of proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes, net of debt discounts and debt issue costs, $10.4 million of loan proceeds received from HSBC and $4.3 million received from common stock issuances pursuant to our equity plans, partially offset by $14.9 million of principal debt payments.

This table does not reflect (1)�a lease agreement entered into in May 2011 for facility space in Brazil; the lease term is five years, commencing on April�1, 2011 and expiring on April�1, 2016; the rent is 35,300 Brazilian Real (approximately $14,500 based on the exchange rate at September 30, 2014)�per month and is subject to an annual inflation adjustment; this lease is cancelable at any time, subject to a maximum three month rent penalty, (2)�fees expected to be incurred related to the bank guarantee issued to BNDES in May 2013 and (3)�that portion of the expenses that we expect to incur, up to $0.2 million, in connection with research activities under the DOE program for which we will not be reimbursed.
We currently lease approximately 96,000 square feet of office and laboratory space in South San Francisco, California. In July 2014, we executed a lease agreement to lease the same office and laboratory space in South San Francisco, California, which includes an additional 10,000 square feet, for a total of approximately 106,000 square feet from February 2015 through January 2018. In September 2014, we entered into a new lease agreement for approximately 5,000 square feet of office space located in Glendale, California. The term of the new lease commences in November 2014 and ends in October 2017.
Operating leases also include annual fees to use and operate a portion of the Clinton/ Galva Facilities, a portion of which may be paid in our common stock.

Item��3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We are exposed to financial market risks, primarily changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates and commodity prices. All of the potential changes noted below are based on sensitivity analyses performed on our financial positions as of September 30, 2014. Actual results may differ materially.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio and our outstanding debt obligations. We generally invest our cash in investments with short maturities or with frequent interest reset terms. Accordingly, our interest income fluctuates with short-term market conditions. As of September 30, 2014, our investment portfolio consisted primarily of corporate debt obligations, U.S. government agency securities, asset-backed and mortgaged-backed securities, municipal bonds and money market funds, which are held for working capital purposes. We believe we do not have material exposure to changes in fair value as a result of changes in interest rates. Our marketable securities were comprised primarily of fixed-term securities as of September 30, 2014. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, we do not believe that there would be a significant negative impact to our condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations as a result of interest rate fluctuations in the financial markets. On March�26, 2013 we entered into the HSBC revolving facility, which bears a variable interest rate based on LIBOR during the two-year funding period; however, we had no balances outstanding under the HSBC revolving facility as of September 30, 2014. Our other outstanding debt as of September 30, 2014 consists of fixed-rate debt, and therefore, is not subject to fluctuations in market interest rates.
Foreign Currency Risk
Our operations include manufacturing and sales activities primarily in the United States, as well as research activities primarily in the United States. We are actively expanding outside the United States, in particular in Brazil through our Solazyme Bunge JV. We sell our Algenist products in Europe and conduct operations in Brazil. As we expand internationally, our results of operations and cash flows will become increasingly subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, our operations in Brazil and/or potential expansion elsewhere in Latin America or increasing Euro denominated product sales to European distributors, will result in our use of currencies other than the U.S. dollar. In addition, the local currency is the functional currency of our Brazil subsidiary and the Solazyme Bunge JV (an unconsolidated joint venture). The assets and liabilities of the Brazil subsidiary are translated from its functional currency to U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, with resulting foreign currency translation adjustments recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The assets and liabilities of the Solazyme Bunge JV are also translated to U.S. dollars similar to our Brazil subsidiary, and we adjust our investment in the Solazyme Bunge JV and cumulative translation adjustment in equity for our ownership portion of the cumulative translation gain or loss recognized on the Solazyme Bunge JV's financial statements. As a result, our comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and expenses are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. In periods when the U.S. dollar declines in value as compared to the foreign currencies in which we incur expenses, our foreign-currency based expenses increase when translated into U.S. dollars. We have not hedged our foreign currency since the exposure has not been material to our historical operating results. Although substantially all of our sales are currently denominated in U.S. dollars, future fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar may affect the price competitiveness of our products outside the United States. We may consider hedging our foreign currency risk as we continue to expand internationally.
Commodity Price Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in commodity prices currently relates primarily to our purchases of plant sugar feedstock. We have not historically hedged the price volatility of plant sugar feedstock. In the future, we may manage our exposure to this risk by hedging the price volatility of feedstock, principally through futures contracts, and entering into joint venture agreements that would enable us to obtain secure access to feedstock.

Item�4.
Controls and Procedures.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2014. The term disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2014 at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
Item�1.
Legal Proceedings.
We may be involved, from time to time, in legal proceedings and claims arising in the course of our business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and there can be no assurance that such legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The information relating to Legal Matters set forth under Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is incorporated into this item by reference.
Item�1A.
Risk Factors.
You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before investing in our publicly-traded securities. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that our management currently deems immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the risks described below were to occur, our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. In such an event, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. In assessing these risks and uncertainties, you should also refer to the other information contained in this Report, including our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The risks and uncertainties discussed below also include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. See Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Forward-Looking Statements.
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
We have a limited operating history and have incurred significant losses to date, anticipate continuing to incur losses and may never achieve or sustain profitability.
We are an early stage company with a limited operating history. We only recently began commercializing our products. To date, a substantial portion of our revenues has consisted of funding from third party collaborative research agreements and government grants. We have generated only limited revenues from commercial sales, which have been principally derived from sales of our consumer products. Although we expect a significant portion of our future revenues to come from commercial sales in the food ingredients, fuels and chemicals and oil field services markets, only a small portion of our revenues to date has been generated from those markets.

We have incurred substantial net losses since our inception, including a net loss of $117.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. We expect these losses may continue as we expand our manufacturing capacity and build out our product pipeline. As of September 30, 2014, we had an accumulated deficit of $423.6 million. We expect to incur additional costs and expenses related to the continued development and expansion of our business, including research and development, the operation of our Peoria Facility, the ramp up and operation of the Solazyme Bunge JV production facility (described below), the ramp up and operation of the Clinton/Galva Facilities (as described below) and other commercial facilities. As a result, our annual and quarterly operating losses may continue in the short term.
We, along with our development and commercialization partners, will need to develop products successfully, cost effectively produce them in large quantities, and market and sell them profitably. If we fail to become profitable, or if we are unable to fund our continuing losses, we may be unable to continue our business operations. There can be no assurance that we will ever achieve or sustain profitability.
We have generated limited revenues from the sale of our products, and our business may fail if we are not able to successfully commercialize these products.
We have had only limited product sales to date. If we are not successful in further advancing our existing commercial arrangements with strategic partners, developing new arrangements, or otherwise increasing our manufacturing capacity and securing reliable access to sufficient volumes of low-cost feedstock, we will be unable to generate meaningful revenues from our products. We are subject to the substantial risk of failure facing businesses seeking to develop products based on a new technology.
Certain factors that could, alone or in combination, prevent us from successfully commercializing our products include:
"
our ability to secure reliable access to sufficient volumes of low-cost feedstock;
"
our ability to achieve commercial-scale production of our products on a cost-effective basis and in a timely manner;
"
technical or operational challenges with our manufacturing processes or with development of new products that we are not able to overcome;

45



"
our ability to consistently manufacture our products within specifications;
"
our ability to establish and maintain successful relationships with development, feedstock, manufacturing and commercialization partners;
"
our ability to gain market acceptance of our products with customers and maintain customer relationships;
"
our ability to manage our growth;
"
our ability to meet applicable regulatory requirements for the production, distribution and sale of our products and to comply with applicable laws and regulations;
"
actions of direct and indirect competitors that may seek to enter the markets in which we expect to compete or that may seek to impose barriers to one or more markets that we intend to target; and
"
public concerns about the ethical, legal, environmental and social ramifications of the use of targeted recombinant technology, land use and the potential diversion of resources from food production.
The production of our microalgae-based products requires fermentable feedstock. The inability to obtain feedstock in sufficient quantities or in a timely and cost-effective manner may limit our ability to produce our products.
A critical component of the production of our microalgae-based products is access to feedstock in sufficient quantities and at an acceptable price to enable commercial production and sale. Other than as described below, we currently purchase feedstock, such as sugarcane-based sucrose and corn-based dextrose, for the production of our products at prevailing market prices. We are currently in discussions with additional potential feedstock partners.
We do not have any long-term supply agreements or other guaranteed access to feedstock other than (i)�for the supply of feedstock to Solazyme Bunge Produtos Renov�veis Ltda. (Solazyme Bunge Renewable Oils or the Solazyme Bunge JV) by our partner, Bunge Global Innovation, LLC and certain of its affiliates (Bunge), pursuant to our joint venture arrangement that includes a feedstock supply agreement, and (ii)�pursuant to our strategic collaboration with Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (ADM) (Solazyme/ADM Collaboration) at the ADM facility in Clinton, Iowa (Clinton Facility). As we scale our production, we anticipate that the production of our microalgae-based products will require large volumes of feedstock, and we may not be able to contract with feedstock producers to secure sufficient quantities of feedstock at reasonable costs or at all. For example, corn-based dextrose feedstock for the Clinton Facility is being provided from ADMs adjacent wet mill and sugarcane-based sucrose for the Solazyme Bunge JV facility in Moema, Brazil will be provided by Bunge. Corn and sugar are traded as commodities and are subject to price volatility. While we may seek to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the price of sugar and corn-based dextrose by entering into hedging transactions directly or through our joint venture or collaboration arrangements, we may not be successful in doing so. If we cannot access feedstock in the quantities we need at acceptable prices, we may not be able to successfully commercialize our food ingredients, fuels, chemicals, encapsulated lubricant and other products, and our business will suffer. We are currently in discussions with additional potential feedstock partners, but we cannot be sure that we will successfully execute additional long-term feedstock contracts on terms favorable to us, or at all. If we do not succeed in entering into long-term supply contracts or successfully hedge against our exposure to fluctuations in the price of feedstock, our costs and profit margins may fluctuate from period to period as we will remain subject to prevailing market prices.
Although our plan is to enter into partnerships, such as the Solazyme Bunge JV and the Solazyme/ADM Collaboration, with feedstock providers to supply the feedstock necessary to produce our products, we cannot predict the future availability or price of such feedstock or be sure that our feedstock partners will be able to supply such feedstock in sufficient quantities or in a timely manner. The prices of feedstock depend on numerous factors outside of our or our partners control, including weather conditions, government programs and regulations, changes in global demand, rising or falling commodities and equities markets, and availability of credit to producers. Crop yields and sugar content depend on weather conditions such as rainfall and temperature. Variable weather conditions have historically caused volatility in feedstock crop prices due to crop failures or reduced harvests. For example, excessive rainfall can adversely affect the supply of feedstock available for the production of our products by reducing the sucrose content of feedstock and limiting growers ability to harvest. Crop disease and pestilence can also occur from time to time and can adversely affect feedstock crop growth, potentially rendering useless or unusable all or a substantial portion of affected harvests. The limited amount of time during which feedstock crops keep their sugar content after harvest poses a risk of spoilage. Also, the fact that many feedstock crops are not themselves traded commodities limits our ability to substitute supply in the event of such an occurrence. If our ability to obtain feedstock crops is adversely affected by these or other conditions, our ability to produce our products will be impaired, and our business will be adversely affected. In the near term we believe Brazilian sugarcane-based sucrose will be an important feedstock for us. Along with the risks described above, Brazilian sugarcane prices may also increase due to, among other things, changes in the criteria set by the Conselho dos Produtores de Cana, A��car e �lcool (Council of Sugarcane, Sugar and Ethanol Producers), known as Consecana. Consecana is an industry association of producers of sugarcane, sugar and ethanol that sets market terms and prices for general supply, lease and partnership agreements and may change such prices and terms from time to time. Moreover, Brazil has a developed industry for producing ethanol from sugarcane, and if we have manufacturing operations in Brazil that do not have a partner providing the sugarcane feedstock, such as Bunge as part of the Solazyme Bunge JV, we will need to

46



compete for sugarcane feedstock with ethanol producers. Such changes and competition could result in higher sugarcane prices and/or a significant decrease in the volume of sugarcane available for the production of our products, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We have entered into, and plan to enter into other, arrangements with feedstock producers to co-locate production at their existing mills, and if we are not able to complete and execute on these arrangements in a timely manner and on terms favorable to us, our business will be adversely affected.
In April 2012, we entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Bunge, forming the Solazyme Bunge JV, which is doing business as Solazyme Bunge Renewable Oils. The Joint Venture Agreement was amended in October 2013 to expand the field and product portfolio. The Solazyme Bunge JV will produce microalgae-based products in Brazil using our proprietary technology and sugarcane feedstock provided by Bunge. The Solazyme Bunge JVs production facility is located adjacent to a sugarcane processing mill in Brazil that is owned by Bunge. The acquisition of the facility site by the Solazyme Bunge JV from the landowners is in process, is complex, is subject to multiple approvals from governmental authorities and will take time to complete. The construction of the Solazyme Bunge JVs production facility began in June 2012, and the first commercial product from the Solazyme Bunge JV production facility was produced in the second quarter of 2014. In addition, in May 2011, we entered a joint development agreement with Bunge that, among other things, advanced our work on Brazilian sugarcane feedstocks and extended through September 2014. In May 2011, we entered into a Warrant Agreement, amended in August 2011, with Bunge Limited a portion of which vested upon the successful completion of milestones that targeted the completion of construction of the Solazyme Bunge JV facility with a nameplate capacity of 100,000 metric tons (MT) of output oil. We intend to continue to expand our manufacturing capacity by entering into additional agreements with feedstock producers that require them to invest some or all of the capital needed to build new production facilities to produce our products. In return, we expect to share in profits anticipated to be realized from the sale of these products. We are currently in discussions with additional potential feedstock and manufacturing partners.
In November 2012, we and ADM entered into a Strategic Collaboration Agreement (Collaboration Agreement), establishing the Solazyme/ADM Collaboration for the production of microalgae-based products at the Clinton Facility. The Clinton Facility utilizes our proprietary microbe-based catalysis technology. Feedstock for the facility is provided from ADMs adjacent wet mill. Under the terms of the Collaboration Agreement, we agreed to pay ADM annual fees for use and operation of a portion of the Clinton Facility, a portion of which may be paid in common stock. In addition, we have granted to ADM a warrant covering 500,000 shares of our common stock, which vests in equal monthly installments over five years, commencing in November 2013. The initial target nameplate capacity of the facility is targeted to be 20,000 MT per year of triglyceride oil, which we are targeting as we refocus the Clinton Facility on higher margin products such as Encapso" lubricant and otherwise balance production volumes with operating expenses. We have an option to expand the capacity to 40,000 MT per year, with the potential to further expand production to 100,000 MT per year. Since the third quarter of 2013, downstream processing of products manufactured at the Clinton Facility has been performed at a finishing facility in Galva, Iowa (Galva�Facility), which is operated by our long-term partner, a wholly owned subsidiary of American Natural Processors, Inc. (Clinton/Galva Facilities). There can be no assurance that we will be able to meet our capacity target of 20,000 MT per year as the Clinton Facility is ramped up or that the capacity of the facility will be expanded. We and ADM are also working together to develop markets for the products produced at the Clinton Facility.
There can be no assurance that a sufficient number of other sugar or other feedstock mill owners will accept the opportunity to partner with us for the production of our microalgae-based products. Reluctance on the part of mill owners may be caused, for example, by their failure to understand our technology or product opportunities or their belief that greater economic benefits can be achieved from partnering with others. Mill owners may also be reluctant or unable to obtain needed capital; alternatively, if mill owners are able to obtain debt financing, we may be required to provide a guarantee. Limitations in the credit markets, such as those experienced in the recent economic downturn or historically in developing nations as a result of government monetary policies designed in response to very high rates of inflation, would impede or prevent this kind of financing and could adversely affect our ability to develop the production capacity needed to allow us to grow our business. Mill owners may also be limited by existing contractual obligations with other third parties, liability, health and safety concerns and additional maintenance, training, operating and other ongoing expenses.
Even if additional feedstock partners are willing to co-locate our production at their mills, they may do so only on economic terms that place more of the cost, or confer less of the economic return, on us than we currently anticipate. If we are not successful in negotiations with mill owners, our cost of securing additional manufacturing capacity may be higher than anticipated in terms of up-front costs, capital expenditure or lost future returns, and we may not gain the manufacturing capacity that we need to grow our business.
Our pursuit of new product opportunities may not be technologically feasible or cost effective, which would limit our ability to expand our product line and sources of revenues.

47



We have committed, and intend to continue to commit, substantial resources, alone or with collaboration partners, to the development and analysis of new Tailored" oils and other microalgae-based products by applying recombinant technology to our microalgae strains. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in creating new Tailored" oil profiles, or other microalgae-based products, that we, our partners or their customers desire. There are significant technological hurdles in successfully applying recombinant technology to microalgae, and if�we are unsuccessful at engineering microalgae strains that produce desirable Tailored" oils and other microalgae-based products, the number and size of the markets we will be able to address will be limited, our expected profit margins could be reduced and the potential profitability of our business could be compromised.
The successful development of our business depends on our ability to efficiently and cost-effectively produce microalgae-based products at large commercial scale.
Two of the significant drivers of our production costs are the level of productivity and conversion yield of our microalgae strains. For example, with respect to oil, productivity is principally a function of the amount of oil that can be obtained from a given volume over a particular time period. Conversion yield refers to the amount of the desired oil that can be produced from a fixed amount of feedstock. We may not be able to meet our currently expected production cost profile as we ramp up our large commercial manufacturing facilities. If we cannot do so, our business could be materially and adversely affected.
Production of both current and future oils and other microalgae-based products will require that our technology and processes be scalable from laboratory, pilot and demonstration projects to large commercial-scale production. We have limited experience constructing, ramping up or managing large, commercial-scale manufacturing facilities. We may not have identified all of the factors that could affect our manufacturing processes. Our technology may not perform as expected when applied at large commercial scale, or we may encounter operational challenges for which we are unable to identify a workable solution. For example, contamination in the production process, equipment failure or accidents, problems with plant utilities, human error, issues arising from process modifications to reduce costs and adjust product specifications, and other similar challenges could decrease process efficiency, create delays and increase our costs. To date we have employed our technology using fermenters with a capacity of up to approximately 625,000 liters. However, we still need to demonstrate that we can reach our target cost structure, including the achievement of target yields and productivities at approximately 500,000 liter scale in Iowa and approximately 625,000 liter scale in Brazil. We may not be able to scale up our production in a timely manner, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to manufacture products at a large commercial scale, our ability to commercialize our technology will be adversely affected, and, with respect to any products that we do bring to market, we may not be able to achieve and maintain an acceptable production cost profile, which would adversely affect our ability to reach, maintain and increase the profitability of our business.
We rely in part on third parties for the production and processing of our products. If these parties do not produce and process our products at a satisfactory quality, in a timely manner, in sufficient quantities and at an acceptable cost, our development and commercialization efforts could be delayed or otherwise negatively impacted.
Other than our Peoria Facility, we do not own facilities that can produce and process our products other than at small scale. As such, we rely, and we expect to continue to rely, at least partially, on third parties (including partners and contract manufacturers) for the production and processing of our products. Currently, we have two�manufacturing arrangements for industrial fermentation: an agreement for the manufacture of certain products by the Solazyme Bunge JV pursuant to a joint venture arrangement and the manufacture of products at the Clinton Facility. We also have manufacturing agreements relating to other aspects of our production process. Our current and anticipated future dependence upon our partners and contract manufacturers for the production and processing of our products may adversely affect our ability to develop products on a timely and competitive basis. The failure of any of our counterparties to provide acceptable products could delay the development and commercialization of our products. We or our partners will need to enter into additional agreements for the commercial development, manufacturing and sale of our products. There can be no assurance that we or our partners can do so on favorable terms, if at all. Even if we reach agreements with manufacturing partners to produce and process our products, initially the partners will be unfamiliar with our technology and production processes. We cannot be sure that the partners will have or develop the operational expertise needed to run the equipment and processes required to manufacture our products. Further, we may have limited control over the amount or timing of resources that any partner is able or willing to devote to production and processing of our products.
To date, our products have been produced and processed in quantities sufficient for our development work and initial commercial sales. For example, we delivered more than 400,000 liters (373 MT) of microalgae-derived military marine diesel and jet fuel to the U.S. Navy in 2011. Even if there is demand for our products at a commercial scale, we or our partners may not be able to successfully increase the production capacity for any of our products in a timely or economic manner or at all. In addition, to the extent we are relying on contract manufacturers to produce and process our products, we cannot be sure that

48



such contract manufacturers will have capacity available when we need their services, that they will be willing to dedicate a portion of their production and/or processing capacity to our products or that we will be able to reach acceptable price and other terms with them for the provision of their production and/or processing services. If we, our partners or our contract manufacturers are unable to increase the production capacity for a product when and as needed, the commercial launch of that product may be delayed, or there may be a shortage of supply, which could limit sales, cause us to lose customers and sales opportunities and impair the growth of our business.
In addition, if a facility or the equipment in a facility that produces and/or processes our products is significantly damaged, destroyed or otherwise becomes unavailable, we or our partners may be unable to replace the manufacturing capacity quickly or cost effectively. The inability to enter into manufacturing agreements, the damage or destruction of a facility upon which we or our partners rely for manufacturing or any other delays in obtaining supply would delay or prevent us and/or our partners from further developing and commercializing our products.
We may experience significant delays and/or cost overruns in financing, designing, constructing and ramping up large commercial manufacturing facilities, which could result in harm to our business and prospects.
Our business plan contemplates bringing significant commercial manufacturing capacity online over the next several years. In order to meet our capital requirements for those facilities, we may have to raise additional funds and may be unable to do so in a timely manner, in sufficient amounts and on terms that are favorable to us, if at all. If we fail to raise sufficient funds, our ability to finance and construct additional manufacturing facilities could be significantly limited. If this happens, we may be forced to delay the commercialization of our products and we will not be able to successfully execute our business plan, which would harm our business.
The Solazyme Bunge JV is currently commissioning a production facility adjacent to Bunges Moema sugarcane mill in Brazil. The first commercial product from the Solazyme Bunge JV production facility was produced in the second quarter of 2014. The production facility is expected to have a name plate capacity of 100,000 MT of oil per year. In February 2013, the Solazyme Bunge JV entered into a loan agreement with the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) for project financing. Funds borrowed under the loan agreement have supported the production facility in Brazil, including a portion of the construction costs of the facility. We have used a portion of our $35.0 million revolving and term loan credit facility (the HSBC facility) with HSBC Bank, USA, National Association (HSBC) to support a bank guarantee of the BNDES loan. As a condition of the Solazyme Bunge JV drawing funds under the loan in excess of amounts supported by bank guarantees, we may be required to provide a corporate guarantee of a portion of the loan (in an amount that, when added to the amount supported by our bank guarantee, does not exceed our ownership percentage in the Solazyme Bunge JV).
Negotiating the terms of the corporate guarantee documentation may take longer than anticipated and may contain terms that are not favorable to us. If we are unable to negotiate our corporate guarantee documentation on acceptable terms, the Solazyme Bunge JV may be unable to draw down the maximum amount available under the BNDES loan, it may have to seek additional financing and may not be able to raise sufficient additional funds on favorable terms, if at all. If the Solazyme Bunge JV is unable to secure additional financing, we will be required to fund our portion of the Solazyme Bunge JVs capital requirements either from existing sources or seek additional financing. The acquisition of the facility site from the landowners is in process, is complex, is subject to multiple approvals of governmental authorities and will take time to complete. If the Solazyme Bunge JV is unable to acquire the facility site on reasonable terms, or at all, it may not be able to operate the production facility and may lose all or part of its investment in such facility.
We will need to construct, or otherwise secure access to, and fund, additional capacity significantly greater than what we are in the process of building as we continue to commercialize our products. Some of our customers may ultimately require that we acquire access to multiple production facilities in order to diversify our manufacturing base. We expect to bring online additional facilities in the future. Although we intend to enter into arrangements with third parties to meet our capacity targets, it is possible that we will need to construct our own facility or facilities to meet a portion or all of these targets. We have limited experience in the construction of commercial production facilities and, if we decide to construct our own facility, we will need to secure necessary funding, complete design and other plans needed for the construction of such facility and secure the requisite permits, licenses and other governmental approvals, and we may not be successful in doing so. The construction of any such facility would have to be completed on a timely basis and within an acceptable budget. In addition, there may be delays related to the acquisition of facility sites, which could delay the development and commercialization of our products, as well as delays in deliveries of materials for the construction of such manufacturing facilities in more remote locations. Any facility, whether owned by a third party or by us, must perform as designed once it is operational. If we encounter significant delays, cost overruns, engineering or utility problems, equipment damage, accidents, equipment supply constraints or other serious challenges in bringing any of these facilities online, we may be unable to meet our production goals in the time frame we have planned. For example, if power and steam are not available to the Solazyme Bunge JVs production facility on a consistent and reliable basis, the development and commercialization of the Solazyme Bunge JVs products will be adversely

49



affected, which would adversely affect our financial results and business prospects. In addition, we have limited experience in the management of manufacturing operations at large scale. We may not be successful in producing the amount and quality of oil or other microalgae-based products we anticipate in the facilities and our results of operations may suffer as a result. We have limited experience producing our products at commercial scale, and we will not succeed if we cannot maintain or decrease our production costs and effectively scale our technology and manufacturing processes.
If we fail to maintain and successfully manage our existing, or enter into new, strategic collaborations, we may not be able to develop and commercialize many of our products and achieve or sustain profitability.
Our ability to enter into, maintain and manage collaborations in our target markets is fundamental to the success of our business. We currently have joint venture, collaboration, research and development, supply and/or distribution agreements with various strategic partners. We currently rely on our partners, in part, for manufacturing and sales or marketing services and intend to continue to do so for the foreseeable future, and we intend to enter into other strategic collaborations to produce, market and sell other products we develop. However, we may not be successful in entering into collaborative arrangements with third parties for the production and sale and marketing of other products. Any failure to enter into collaborative arrangements on favorable terms could delay or hinder our ability to develop and commercialize our products and could increase our costs of development and commercialization.
In the fuels and chemicals markets, we have entered into a joint venture arrangement with Bunge that is focused on the manufacture of products in Brazil and development agreements with various other partners. In addition, we have entered into a strategic collaboration with ADM for the manufacture of products to be sold primarily to the industrial and nutritionals markets in North America, and have entered into a commercial supply agreement with Unilever. In the skin and personal care market, we have entered into arrangements with Sephora S.A. and its affiliates (Sephora), QVC, Inc. and others. There can be no guarantee that we can successfully manage these strategic collaborations. Under our agreement with Sephora, we bear a significant portion of the costs and risk of marketing the products, but do not exercise sole control of marketing strategy. In some cases, we will need to meet certain milestones to continue our activities with these partners. Moreover, the exclusivity provisions of certain strategic arrangements limit our ability to otherwise commercialize our products.
Pursuant to the agreements listed above and similar arrangements that we may enter into in the future, we may have limited or no control over the amount or timing of resources that any partner is able or willing to devote to our products or collaborative efforts. Any of our partners may fail to perform their obligations as expected. These partners may breach or terminate their agreements with us or otherwise fail to conduct their collaborative activities successfully and in a timely manner. Further, our partners may not develop products arising out of our arrangements or devote sufficient resources to the development, manufacture, marketing, or sale of our products. Dependence on collaborative arrangements will also subject us to other risks, including:
"
we may be required to relinquish important rights, including intellectual property, marketing and distribution rights;
"
we may disagree with our partners as to rights to intellectual property we develop, or their research programs or commercialization activities;
"
we may have lower revenues than if we were to market and distribute such products ourselves;
"
a partner could separately develop and market a competing product either independently or in collaboration with others, including our competitors;
"
a partner could divest assets that are critical to our or our joint ventures operations to a third party that is less willing to cooperate with us or is less incentivized or able to manage such assets in a way that helps us achieve our operational and financial goals;
"
our partners could become unable or less willing to expend their resources on research and development or commercialization efforts due to general market conditions, their financial condition or other circumstances beyond our control;
"
we may be unable to manage multiple simultaneous partnerships or collaborations; and
"
our partners may operate in countries where their operations could be adversely affected by changes in the local regulatory environment or by political unrest.

Moreover, disagreements with a partner or former partner could develop, and any conflict with a partner or former partner could reduce our ability to enter into future collaboration agreements and negatively impact our relationships with one or more existing partners. If any of these events occurs, or if we fail to maintain our agreements with our partners, we may not be able to commercialize our existing and potential products, grow our business or generate sufficient revenues to support our operations. In addition, disagreements with a partner or former partner could result in disputes or litigation. Formal dispute resolution and litigation can require substantial time and resources, and the resolution of disputes and litigation may result in settlements or judgments that have a materially adverse impact on our results of operations or our financial condition. We are currently engaged in an arbitration proceeding with our former partner Roquette Fr�res, S.A and in September 2014 we agreed to settle a legal proceeding with our former partner Therabotanics, LLC. For additional information regarding the

50



Therabotanics proceeding, see Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings and for additional information regarding the proceeding with Roquette, see the risk factor titled, Our joint venture with Roquette has been dissolved. We are currently in arbitration with Roquette as to certain issues related to the dissolution of the joint venture. We may have other disputes with Roquette related to the joint venture and its business, of Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Additionally, our business could be negatively impacted if any of our partners undergoes a change of control or were to otherwise assign the rights or obligations under any of our agreements to a competitor of ours or to a third party who is not willing to work with us on the same terms or commit the same resources as the current partner.
Our relationship with our strategic partner ADM may not prove successful.
We have entered into the Solazyme/ADM Collaboration, which is focused on producing products at the Clinton Facility using our proprietary technology. Feedstock for the facility is being provided from ADMs adjacent wet mill. Under the terms of the Collaboration Agreement, we will pay ADM annual fees for use and operation of a portion of the Clinton Facility, a portion of which may be paid in our common stock.
Our ability to generate value from the Solazyme/ADM Collaboration will depend, among other things, on our ability to work cooperatively with ADM for the production of our products at the Clinton Facility. We may not be able to do so. For example, under the Solazyme/ADM Collaboration, ADM has agreed to provide feedstock and utility services to the Clinton Facility as well as operating services. ADM does not have previous experience working with our technology, and we cannot be sure that ADM will be successful in producing our products in the amounts we may require, at a satisfactory quality and/or in a cost-effective manner. Subject to limited exceptions and adjustments, we are responsible for annual fees regardless of ADMs success in producing our products in acceptable quantities, at satisfactory quality and at acceptable costs. If production capacity is expanded at the Clinton Facility, there may be delays or cost overruns related to the retrofitting and permitting of the Clinton Facility, which would delay the increased production and commercialization of our products and could increase our costs. Furthermore, the agreements governing our Solazyme/ADM Collaboration are complex and cover a range of future activities, and disputes may arise between us and ADM that could delay the production and commercialization of our products or cause the termination of the Solazyme/ADM Collaboration. Additionally, downstream processing of products produced at the Clinton Facility is being performed at the facilities of third-party manufacturing partners. Any business or operations interruption at the facilities of such third parties could delay the production and commercialization of our products and could increase our costs.
Our relationship with our strategic partner Bunge may not prove successful.
We have entered into a joint venture with Bunge that is focused on the production of certain microalgae-based products in Brazil. In connection with the establishment of the Solazyme Bunge JV, we entered into a development agreement and other agreements with Bunge and the Solazyme Bunge JV.
Our ability to generate value from the Solazyme Bunge JV will depend on, among other things, our ability to work cooperatively with Bunge and the Solazyme Bunge JV for the commercialization of the Solazyme Bunge JVs products. We may not be able to do so. For example, under the joint venture agreements, Bunge has agreed to provide feedstock as well as utility services to the production facility. Bunge has announced that it is actively pursuing strategic alternatives for its Brazilian sugarcane business, which could involve the divestment, in whole or in part, of the assets of such business. While a new controlling entity would remain subject to the terms of the feedstock and utility supply agreements, that entity may be less willing to cooperate with us or the Solazyme Bunge JV, which may adversely affect the development and commercialization of the Solazyme Bunge JVs products.
We and Bunge have both agreed to provide various administrative services to the Solazyme Bunge JV, and Bunge will also provide working capital to the Solazyme Bunge JV through a revolving loan facility, with a portion of the repayment for start-up expenses to be guaranteed by us. Bunge does not have previous experience working with our technology, and we cannot be sure that the Solazyme Bunge JV will be successful in commercializing its products. In addition, there may be delays related to the acquisition of the facility site from the landowners and delays or cost overruns in connection with the ramp up of the Solazyme Bunge JV production facility. There may also be delays in our negotiation of the corporate loan guarantee to be entered into as a condition of the Solazyme Bunge JV drawing down amounts in excess of amounts supported by bank guarantees under the loan agreement with BNDES. In addition, we will be required to maintain the required license, granted by the Sao Paulo State Environmental Department, to operate the production facility. Any negative event with respect to these issues would delay the development and commercialization of the Solazyme Bunge JV products. Furthermore, the agreements governing our partnership are complex and cover a range of future activities, and disputes may arise between us and Bunge that could delay completion of the Solazyme Bunge JV facility and/or the expansion of the Solazyme Bunge JVs capacity and the development and commercialization of the Solazyme Bunge JVs products or cause the dissolution of the Solazyme Bunge JV.

Our joint venture with Roquette has been dissolved. We are currently in arbitration with Roquette as to certain issues related to the dissolution of the joint venture. We may have other disputes with Roquette related to the joint venture and its business.
In 2010, we entered into a 50/50 joint venture with Roquette Fr�res, S.A. (Roquette). As part of this relationship, we and Roquette formed Solazyme Roquette Nutritionals, LLC (SRN) through which both we and Roquette agreed to pursue certain opportunities in microalgae-based products for the food, nutraceuticals and animal feed markets. On June�21, 2013, we and Roquette agreed to dissolve SRN. On July�18, 2013, SRN was dissolved. As a result of the dissolution, the joint venture and operating agreement between us and Roquette, and the license agreement, whereby we licensed to SRN certain of our intellectual property, automatically terminated.
SRN, we and Roquette are in the process of winding down the affairs of SRN. We and Roquette are currently engaged in an arbitration proceeding concerning certain issues associated with the dissolution of SRN and the wind-down of its affairs. We cannot be sure that other disputes will not arise between us and Roquette related to the joint venture and its business. Such disagreements and disputes are costly, time-consuming to resolve and distracting to our management.
Disputes regarding our intellectual property rights, and the rights of others (including Roquette) to manufacture and sell the products included in the SRN joint venture could delay or negatively impact our commercialization of products in the markets SRN was targeting. Any such disputes could be costly, time-consuming to resolve and distracting to our management. In addition, if our commercialization in these markets is delayed or unsuccessful, our financial results could be negatively impacted.
We cannot be sure that our products will meet necessary standards or be approved or accepted by customers in our target markets.
If we are unable to convince our potential customers or end users of our products that we are a reliable supplier, that our products are comparable or superior to the products that they currently use, or that the use of our products is otherwise beneficial to them, we will not be successful in entering our target markets and our business will be adversely affected.
In the chemicals market, the potential customers for our or the Solazyme Bunge JVs products are generally companies that have well-developed manufacturing processes and arrangements with suppliers for the chemical components of their products and may resist changing these processes and components. These potential customers frequently impose lengthy and complex product qualification procedures on their suppliers, influenced by consumer preference, manufacturing considerations, supplier operating history, regulatory issues, product liability and other factors, many of which are unknown to, or not well understood by, us. Satisfying these processes may take many months or years.
Although we produce products for the fuels market that comply with industry specifications, potential fuels customers may be reluctant to adopt new products. In addition, our fuels may need to satisfy product certification requirements of equipment manufacturers. For example, diesel engine manufacturers may need to certify that the use of diesel fuels produced from our oils in their equipment will not invalidate product warranties.
In the nutrition market, our food ingredients will compete with oils and other food ingredients currently in use. Potential customers may not perceive a benefit to microalgae-based ingredients as compared to existing ingredients or may be otherwise unwilling to adopt their use. If consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies do not accept our food ingredients as ingredients for their widely distributed finished products, or if end customers are unwilling to purchase finished products made using our products, we will not be successful in competing in the nutrition market and our business will be adversely affected.

In the oil field services market, our EncapsoTM lubricant will compete with incumbent drilling lubricants and other specialty lubricants. Potential customers may be reluctant to adopt an algae-based product because of their unfamiliarity with our technology. Our EncapsoTM lubricant has been subjected only to a limited number of on-site drilling trials, and certain customers may require further data and operating history prior to committing to purchase.
In the skin and personal care market, our branded products are marketed directly to potential consumers, but we cannot be sure that consumers will�continue to be attracted to our brands,�be�attracted to our new brands or products,�or purchase our products on an ongoing basis. As a result,�our branded products may not be successful,�distribution partners may decide to discontinue marketing our products�and�our business will be adversely affected.
We have entered into a limited number of binding, definitive commercial supply agreements that contain minimum volume commitments. We have also entered contingent offtake agreements and non-binding letters of intent with third parties regarding purchase of our products, but these agreements do not unconditionally obligate the other party to purchase any quantities of any products at this time. There can be no assurance that our contingent offtake agreements and non-binding letters of intent will lead to unconditional definitive agreements to purchase our products.

52



We have limited experience in structuring arrangements with customers for the purchase of our microalgae-based products, and we may not be successful in this essential aspect of our business.
We expect that our customers will include large companies that sell consumer products, food products and chemical products, as well as large users of oils for fuels and lubricants for oil field operations and other applications. Because we began commercializing our consumer products in the last few years, have only recently begun to commercialize food ingredient products on our own, and are still in the process of developing our products for the nutrition, fuels and chemicals, oil field services and other markets, we have limited experience operating in our customers industries and interacting with the customers that we intend to target. Developing the necessary expertise may take longer than we expect and will require that we expand and improve our sales and marketing capability, which could be costly. These activities could delay our ability to capitalize on the opportunities that we believe our technology and products present, and may prevent us from successfully commercializing our products. Further, we ultimately aim to sell large amounts of our products, and this will require that we effectively negotiate and manage contracts for these purchase and sale relationships. The companies with which we aim to have arrangements are generally much larger than we are and have substantially longer operating histories and more experience in their industries than we have. As a result, we may not succeed in establishing relationships with these companies and, if we do, we may not be effective in negotiating or managing the terms of such relationships, which could adversely affect our future results of operations.
We may be subject to product liability claims and other claims of our customers and partners.
The design, development, production and sale of our products involve an inherent risk of product liability claims and the associated adverse publicity. Because some of our ultimate products in each of our target markets are used by consumers, and because use of those ultimate products may cause injury to those consumers and damage to property, we are subject to a risk of claims for such injuries and damages. In addition, we may be named directly in product liability suits relating to our products or third-party products integrating our products, even for defects resulting from errors of our partners, contract manufacturers or other third parties working with our products. These claims could be brought by various parties, including customers who are purchasing products directly from us or other users who purchase products from our customers or partners. We could also be named as co-parties in product liability suits that are brought against manufacturing partners that produce our products.
In addition, our customers and partners may bring suits against us alleging damages for the failure of our products to meet stated claims, specifications or other requirements. Any such suits, even if not successful, could be costly, disrupt the attention of our management and damage our negotiations with other partners and/or customers. Although we often seek to limit our product liability in our contracts, such limits may not be enforceable or may be subject to exceptions. Our current product liability and umbrella insurance for our business may be inadequate to cover all potential liability claims. Insurance coverage is expensive and may be difficult to obtain. Also, insurance coverage may not be available in the future on acceptable terms and may not be sufficient to cover potential claims. We cannot be sure that our contract manufacturers or manufacturing partners who produce our ultimate products will have adequate insurance coverage to cover against potential claims. If we experience a large insured loss, it may exceed our coverage limits, or our insurance carrier may decline to further cover us or may raise our insurance rates to unacceptable levels, any of which could impair our financial position and potentially cause us to go out of business.
We will face risks associated with our international business in developing countries and elsewhere.
For the foreseeable future, our business plan will likely subject us to risks associated with essential manufacturing, sales and operations in developing countries. We have limited experience to date manufacturing and selling internationally and such expansion will require us to make significant expenditures, including the hiring of local employees and establishing facilities, in advance of generating any revenue. The economies of many of the countries in which we or our joint ventures operate or will operate have been characterized by frequent and occasionally extensive government intervention and unstable economic cycles.
In addition, in Brazil, where the Solazyme Bunge JV is located, there are restrictions on the foreign ownership of land. As a result, the process for the acquisition by the Solazyme Bunge JV of the facility site from the landowners may be long, complicated and is subject to government approvals.
International business operations are subject to local legal, political, regulatory and social requirements and economic conditions and our business, financial performance and prospects may be adversely affected by, among others, the following factors:
"
political, economic, diplomatic or social instability;
"
land reform movements;

53



"
tariffs, export or import restrictions, restrictions on remittances abroad or repatriation of profits, duties or taxes that limit our ability to move our products out of these countries or interfere with the import of essential materials into these countries;
"
inflation, changing interest rates and exchange controls;
"
tax burden and policies;
"
delays or failures in securing licenses, permits or other governmental approvals necessary to build and operate facilities and use our microalgae strains to produce products;
"
the imposition of limitations on products or processes and the production or sale of those products or processes;
"
uncertainties relating to foreign laws, including labor laws, regulations and restrictions, and legal proceedings;
"
foreign ownership rules and changes in regard thereto;
"
an inability, or reduced ability, to protect our intellectual property, including any effect of compulsory licensing imposed by government action;
"
successful compliance with U.S. and foreign laws that regulate the conduct of business abroad, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act;
"
insufficient investment in developing countries in public infrastructure, including transportation infrastructure, and disruption of transportation and logistics services; and
"
difficulties and costs of staffing and managing foreign operations.
These and other factors could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our international operations may expose us to the risk of fluctuation in currency exchange rates and rates of foreign inflation, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
We currently incur some costs and expenses in Euros and Brazilian Reals and expect in the future to incur additional expenses in these and other foreign currencies, and also derive a portion of our revenues in the local currencies of customers throughout the world. As a result, our revenues and results of operations are subject to foreign exchange fluctuations, which we may not be able to manage successfully. During the past few decades, the Brazilian currency in particular has faced frequent and substantial exchange rate fluctuations in relation to the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies. There can be no assurance that the Real or the Euro will not significantly appreciate or depreciate against the U.S. dollar in the future. We bear the risk that the rate of inflation in the foreign countries where we incur costs and expenses or the decline in value of the U.S. dollar compared to those foreign currencies will increase our costs as expressed in U.S. dollars. Future measures by foreign governments to control inflation, including interest rate adjustments, intervention in the foreign exchange market and changes to the fixed value of their currencies, may trigger increases in inflation. We may not be able to adjust the prices of our products to offset the effects of inflation on our cost structure, which could increase our costs and reduce our net operating margins. If we do not successfully manage these risks through hedging or other mechanisms, our revenues and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We may encounter difficulties managing our growth, and we will need to properly prioritize our efforts in four distinct target markets as our business grows. If we are unable to do so, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Our business has grown rapidly. Continued growth may place a strain on our human and capital resources. Furthermore, we intend to conduct our business internationally and anticipate business operations in the United States, Europe, Latin America and elsewhere. These diversified, global operations place increased demands on our limited resources and may require us to substantially expand the capabilities of our administrative and operational resources and will require us to attract, train, manage and retain qualified management, technicians, scientists and other personnel. As our operations expand domestically and internationally, we will need to continue to manage multiple locations and additional relationships with various customers, partners, suppliers and other third parties across several product categories and markets.
Our growth is taking place across four distinct target markets: fuels and chemicals, nutrition, oil field services and skin and personal care. We will be required to prioritize our limited financial and managerial resources as we pursue particular development and commercialization efforts in each target market. Any resources we expend on one or more of these efforts could be at the expense of other potentially profitable opportunities. If we focus our efforts and resources on one or more of these markets and they do not lead to commercially viable products, our revenues, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Furthermore, as our operations continue to grow, the simultaneous management of development, production and commercialization across all four target markets will become increasingly complex and may result in less than optimal allocation of management and other administrative resources, increase our operating expenses and harm our operating results.
Our ability to effectively manage our operations, growth and various projects across our target markets will require us to make additional investments in our infrastructure to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls

54



and our reporting systems and procedures and to attract and retain sufficient numbers of talented employees, which we may be unable to do effectively. We may be unable to successfully manage our expenses in the future, which may negatively impact our gross margins or operating margins in any particular quarter.
In addition, we may not be able to improve our management information and control systems, including our internal control over financial reporting, to a level necessary to manage our growth and we may discover deficiencies in existing systems and controls that we may not be able to remediate in an efficient or timely manner.
Our success depends in part on recruiting and retaining key personnel and, if we fail to do so, it may be more difficult for us to execute our business strategy. We are currently a small organization and will need to hire additional personnel to execute our business strategy successfully.
Our success depends on our continued ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified management, business development, manufacturing and scientific personnel and directors, and on our ability to develop and maintain important relationships with leading academic institutions and scientists. We are highly dependent upon a number of key members of our senior management, including manufacturing, business development and scientific personnel, and on our directors. If any of such persons left, our business could be harmed. All of our employees and directors are at-will and may resign at any time. The loss of the services of one or more of our key employees, or directors could delay or have an impact on the successful commercialization of our products. We do not maintain any key man insurance. Competition for qualified personnel in the biotechnology field is intense, particularly in the San Francisco Bay Area. We may not be able to attract and retain qualified personnel on acceptable terms given the competition for such personnel. If we are unsuccessful in our recruitment efforts, we may be unable to execute our strategy.
We may not be able to meet applicable regulatory requirements for the sale of our microalgae-based products and the operation of production facilities, and, even if requirements are met, complying on an ongoing basis with the numerous regulatory requirements applicable to our various product categories and facilities will be time-consuming and costly.
Our chemical products may be subject to government regulation in our target markets. In the United States, the EPA administers the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), which regulates the commercial registration, distribution, and use of chemicals. TSCA will require us to comply with the Microbial Commercial Activity Notice (MCAN) process to manufacture and distribute products made from our recombinant microalgae strains. An MCAN is not required for non-recombinant strains. To date, we have filed MCANs for certain of our recombinant microalgae strains, some of which have been dropped from review, and expect to file additional MCANs in the future.
Before we can manufacture or distribute significant volumes of a chemical, we need to determine whether that chemical is listed in the TSCA inventory. If the substance is listed, then manufacture or distribution can commence immediately. If not, then a pre-manufacture notice (PMN) must be filed with the EPA for a review period of up to 90 days excluding extensions. We have filed PMNs for certain of our products and expect to file additional PMNs in the future. Some of the products we produce or plan to produce are already eligible to be placed on the TSCA inventory. Others are not yet listed. We may not be able to expediently receive approval from the EPA to list the chemicals we would like to make on the TSCA registry, resulting in delays or significant increases in testing requirements. A similar program exists in the European Union, called REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemical Substances). We are required to register some of our products with the European Commission, and this process could cause delays or significant costs. We have determined that some of our algal oils are exempt from REACH registration requirements. To the extent that other geographies, such as Brazil, may rely on the TSCA or REACH for chemical registration in their geographies, delays with the U.S. or European authorities may subsequently delay entry into these markets as well. Furthermore, other geographies may have their own chemical inventory requirements, which may delay entry into these markets, irrespective of U.S. or European approval.
Our nutrition products are subject to regulation by various government agencies, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), state and local agencies and similar agencies outside the United States. Food ingredients are regulated either as food additives or as substances generally recognized as safe, or GRAS. A substance can be listed or affirmed as GRAS by the FDA or self-affirmed by its manufacturer upon determination that independent qualified experts would generally agree that the substance is GRAS for a particular use. A GRAS Notice of Determination for algal oil was submitted to the FDA, and notification was received from the FDA in June 2012 that it had no further questions. A GRAS Notice of Determination for whole algal flour was submitted to the FDA, and notification was received from the FDA that it had no further questions. A panel of qualified experts in the field of food toxicology has determined that an additional algal oil, our second, is GRAS. This determination meets the FDA criteria of self-affirmed GRAS. If the FDA were to disagree with the conclusions in future GRAS Notices of Determination, they could ask that the products be voluntarily withdrawn from the market or could initiate legal action to halt their sale. Such actions by the FDA could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of our operations. Food ingredients that are not GRAS are regulated as food additives and require FDA approval prior to

55



commercialization. The food additive petition process is generally expensive and time consuming, with approval, if secured, taking years.
The sale and/or use of diesel and jet fuels produced from our oils are subject to regulation by various government agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board in the United States. To date, we have registered only our SoladieselRD fuel in the United States. We or our refining or commercialization partners or customers may be required to register our fuel in the United States, with the European Commission and elsewhere before selling our products.
The sale of ingredients for use in animal feed is regulated by agencies including the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM). Regulatory requirements for suitability must be met by providing data from studies, which may cause delays and the incursion of additional costs.
Our consumer products are subject to regulation by various government agencies both within and outside the United States. Such regulations principally relate to the ingredients, labeling, packaging and marketing of our consumer products.
Changes in regulatory requirements, laws and policies, or evolving interpretations of existing regulatory requirements, laws and policies, may result in increased compliance costs, delays, capital expenditures and other financial obligations that could adversely affect our business or financial results.
We expect to encounter regulations in most if not all of the countries in which we may seek to sell our products, and we cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain necessary approvals in a timely manner or at all. If our products do not meet applicable regulatory requirements in a particular country or at all, then we may not be able to commercialize them and our business will be adversely affected. The various regulatory schemes applicable to our products will continue to apply following initial approval for sale. Monitoring regulatory changes and ensuring our ongoing compliance with applicable requirements will be time-consuming and may affect our results of operations. If we fail to comply with such requirements on an ongoing basis, we may be subject to fines or other penalties, or may be prevented from selling our products, and our business may be harmed.
The construction and operation of our, our partners or our joint ventures production facilities are likely to require government approvals. If we are not able to obtain or maintain the necessary approvals in a timely manner or at all, our business will be adversely affected. In February 2014, the Sao Paulo State Environmental Department granted a license to operate the Solazyme Bunge JV facility, which is necessary to begin commercial production.
We may incur significant costs complying with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, and failure to comply with these laws and regulations could expose us to significant liabilities.
We use hazardous chemicals and radioactive and biological materials in our business and are subject to a variety of federal, state, local and international laws and regulations governing, among other matters, the use, generation, manufacture, transportation, storage, handling, disposal of, and human exposure to, these materials both in the U.S. and outside the U.S., including regulation by governmental regulatory agencies, such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the EPA. We have incurred, and will continue to incur, capital and operating expenditures and other costs in the ordinary course of our business in complying with these laws and regulations.
Although we have implemented safety procedures for handling and disposing of these materials and waste products in an effort to comply with these laws and regulations, we cannot be sure that our safety measures will be compliant or capable of eliminating the risk of injury or contamination from the generation, manufacturing, use, storage, transportation, handling, disposal of, and human exposure to, hazardous materials. Failure to comply with environmental, health and safety laws could subject us to liability and resulting damages. There can be no assurance that violations of environmental, health and safety laws will not occur as a result of human error, accident, equipment failure or other causes. Compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations may be expensive, and the failure to comply with past, present, or future laws could result in the imposition of fines, regulatory oversight costs, third party property damage, product liability and personal injury claims, investigation and remediation costs, the suspension of production, or a cessation of operations, and our liability may exceed our total assets. Liability under environmental laws, such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act in the United States, can impose liability for the full amount of damages, without regard to comparative fault for the investigation and cleanup of contamination and impacts to human health and for damages to natural resources. Contamination at properties we own and operate, and at properties to which we send hazardous materials, may result in liability for us under environmental laws and regulations.
Our business and operations will be affected by other new environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, which may affect our research and development and manufacturing programs, and environmental laws could become more stringent

56



over time, requiring us to change our operations, or resulting in greater compliance costs and increasing risks and penalties associated with violations, which could impair our research, development or production efforts and harm our business. The costs of complying with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, and any claims concerning noncompliance, or liability with respect to contamination in the future could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or operating results.
Changes in government regulations, including subsidies and economic incentives, could have a material adverse effect on demand for our products, business or results of operations.
The market for renewable fuels is heavily influenced by foreign, federal, state and local government regulations and policies. Changes to existing, or adoption of new, domestic or foreign federal, state or local legislative initiatives that impact the production, distribution, sale or import and export of renewable fuels may harm our business. For example, in 2007, the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 set targets for alternative sourced liquid transportation fuels (approximately 14 billion gallons in 2011, increasing to 36 billion gallons by 2022). Of the 2022 target amount, a minimum of 21 billion gallons must be advanced biofuels. In the U.S. and in a number of other countries, these regulations and policies have been modified in the past and may be modified again in the future. For example, in 2013, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency proposed a reduction in the volume of total alternative fuel from the 2014 statutory target of 18.15 billion gallons to 15.21 billion gallons. Under this new proposed target, the advanced biofuel target would be reduced to 2.2 billion gallons from the 2014 statutory target of 3.75 billion gallons. The elimination of, or any additional reduction in, mandated requirements for fuel alternatives and additives to gasoline may cause demand for biofuels to decline and deter investment in the research, development or commercial adoption of renewable fuels.
In addition, the U.S. Congress has passed legislation that extends tax credits to blenders of certain renewable fuel products. However, there is no assurance that this or any other favorable legislation will remain in place. For example, the biodiesel tax credit expired in December 2009 and its extension was not approved until March 2010. The most recent biodiesel tax credit expired in December 2013 and its extension has thus far not been approved. Any reduction in, phasing out or elimination of existing tax credits, subsidies and other incentives in the U.S. and foreign markets for renewable fuels, or any inability of our customers to access such credits, subsidies and incentives, may adversely affect demand for our fuel products and increase the overall cost of commercialization of our renewable fuels, which would adversely affect our business.
In addition, market uncertainty regarding future policies may also affect our ability to develop new renewable products, license our technologies to third parties and sell products to end customers. Any inability to address these requirements and any regulatory or policy changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Conversely, government programs could increase investment and competition in the markets for our products. For example, various governments have announced a number of spending programs focused on the development of clean technology, including alternatives to petroleum-based fuels and the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which could lead to increased funding for us or our competitors, or the rapid increase in the number of competitors within our markets.
Concerns associated with renewable fuels, including land usage, national security interests and food crop usage, are receiving legislative, industry and public attention. This could result in future legislation, regulation and/or administrative action that could adversely affect our business. When and how these requirements and any regulatory or policy changes are addressed could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Future government policies may adversely affect the supply of sugarcane, corn or cellulosic sugars, restricting our ability to use these feedstocks to produce our products, and negatively impact our revenues and results of operations.
We may face risks relating to the use of our targeted recombinant microalgae strains, and if we are not able to meet applicable regulatory requirements for the use of these strains or if we face material ethical, legal and social concerns about our use of targeted recombinant technology, our business could be adversely affected.
The use of microorganisms designed using targeted recombinant technology, such as some of our microalgae strains, is subject to laws and regulations in many states and countries, some of which are new and still evolving and interpreted by fact specific application. In the United States, the EPA regulates the commercial use of microorganisms designed using targeted recombinant technology as well as potential products derived from them.
We expect to encounter regulations of microorganisms designed using targeted recombinant technology in most if not all of the countries in which we may seek to establish manufacturing operations, and the scope and nature of these regulations will likely be different from country to country. For example, in the U.S., when used in an industrial process, our microalgae strains designed using targeted recombinant technology may be considered new chemicals under the TSCA, administered by

57



the EPA. We will be required to comply with the EPAs process. In Brazil, microorganisms designed using targeted recombinant technology are regulated by the National Biosafety Technical Commission, or CTNBio. In March 2013, we submitted an application for approval from CTNBio to use a specific microalgae strain designed using targeted recombinant technology in a contained environment in order to use these microalgae for research and development and commercial production purposes in any facilities we establish in Brazil. We obtained approval for this application from CTNBio in October 2013. In February 2014, CTNBio granted a CQB (Certificate of Quality in Biosafety) to the Moema plant for activities including industrial production, import and export, disposal and storage of our key production organisms. If we cannot meet the applicable requirements in Brazil and other countries in which we intend to produce microalgae-based products, or if it takes longer than anticipated to obtain such approvals, our business could be adversely affected.
The subject of organisms designed using targeted recombinant technology has received negative publicity, which has aroused public debate. Public attitudes about the safety and environmental hazards of, and ethical concerns over, genetic research and microorganisms designed using targeted recombinant technology could influence public acceptance of our technology and products. In addition, shifting public attitudes regarding, and potential changes to laws governing, ownership of genetic material could harm our intellectual property rights with respect to our genetic material and discourage collaborators from supporting, developing, or commercializing our products, processes and technologies. Governmental reaction to negative publicity concerning organisms designed using targeted recombinant technology could result in greater government regulation of or trade restrictions on imports of genetic research and derivative products. If we and/or our collaborators are not able to overcome the ethical, legal, and social concerns relating to the use of targeted recombinant technology, our products and processes may not be accepted or we could face increased expenses, delays or other impediments to their commercialization.
We expect to face competition for our products in the fuels and chemicals markets from providers of products based on petroleum, plant oils and animal fats and from other companies seeking to provide alternatives to these products, many of whom have greater resources and experience than we do. If we cannot compete effectively against these companies or products, we may not be successful in bringing our products to market or further growing our business.
In the chemical market, we will compete with the established providers of oils currently used in chemical products. Producers of these incumbent products include global oil companies, including those selling agricultural products such as palm oil, palm kernel oil, castor bean oil and sunflower oil, large international chemical companies and other companies specializing in specific products or essential oils. We may also compete in one or more of these markets with manufacturers of other products such as highly refined petrochemicals, synthetic polymers and other petroleum-based fluids and lubricants as well as new market entrants offering renewable products.
In the transportation fuels market, we expect to compete with independent and integrated oil refiners, large oil and gas companies and, in certain fuels markets, with other companies producing advanced biofuels. The refiners compete with us by selling conventional fuel products, and some are also pursuing hydrocarbon fuel production using non-renewable feedstocks, such as natural gas and coal, as well as production using renewable feedstocks, such as vegetable oil and biomass. We also expect to compete with companies that are developing the capacity to produce diesel and other transportation fuels from renewable resources in other ways. These include advanced biofuels companies using specific engineered enzymes that they have developed to convert cellulosic biomass, which is non-food plant material such as wood chips, corn stalks and sugarcane bagasse, into fermentable sugars and ultimately, renewable diesel and other fuels. Biodiesel companies convert vegetable oils and animal oils into diesel fuel and some are seeking to produce diesel and other transportation fuels using thermochemical methods to convert biomass into renewable fuels.
We believe the primary competitive factors in both the fuels and chemicals markets are product price, product performance, sustainability, availability of supply and compatibility of products with existing infrastructure.
The oil companies, large chemical companies and well-established agricultural products companies with whom we expect to compete are much larger than we are, have, in most cases, well-developed distribution systems and networks for their products, have valuable historical relationships with the potential customers we are seeking to serve and have much more extensive sales and marketing programs in place to promote their products. Some of our competitors may use their influence to impede the development and acceptance of our products. Our limited resources relative to many of our competitors may cause us to fail to anticipate or respond adequately to new developments and other competitive pressures. In the nascent markets for renewable fuels and chemicals, it is difficult to predict which, if any, market entrants will be successful, and we may lose market share to competitors producing new or existing renewable products.
We expect to face competition for our nutrition and skin and personal care products from other companies in these fields, many of whom have greater resources and experience than we do. If we cannot compete effectively against these companies or their products, we may not be successful in selling our products or further growing our business.

58



We expect that our nutrition products will compete with providers in both the specialty and mass food ingredient markets. Many of these companies, such as Cargill, Incorporated, Monsanto Company, Syngenta AG and Roquette Fr�res, S.A., are larger than we are, have well-developed distribution systems and networks for their products and have valuable historical relationships with the potential customers and distributors we hope to serve. We may also compete with companies seeking to produce nutrition products based on renewable oils, including DSM�Food Specialties and DuPont Nutrition�& Health. Our success in the development of nutrition products will depend on our ability to effectively compete with established companies and successfully commercialize our products.
In the skin and personal care market, we expect to compete with established companies and brands with loyal customer followings. The market for skin and personal care products is characterized by strong established brands, loyal brand following and heavy brand marketing. We will compete with companies with well-known brands such as Kinerase, Perricone MD, and StriVectin. These companies have greater sales and marketing resources than us. We will also compete in the mass consumer market. Some of our competitors in this market have well-known brands such as Meaningful Beauty and Principal Secret and have substantially greater sales and marketing resources than us. We have limited experience in the skin and personal care market. We will need to continue to devote substantial resources to the marketing of our products and there can be no assurance that we will be successful.
We expect to face competition in the oil field services market.

We expect that our EncapsoTM lubricant will compete with incumbent drilling lubricant products that are marketed by larger companies with significantly greater resources and experience. Such competitors compete vigorously on fluids performance and price. These companies have broad product and service offerings in addition to their drilling fluids. These larger companies may attempt to compete by offering discounts to customers to use multiple products and services, some of which we do not offer. We may also compete with regional companies that compete on price, performance and local relationships. Our success in this target market will depend on our ability to effectively compete with these established companies, and we may not be able to do so effectively.
A decline in the price of petroleum and petroleum-based products, plant oils or other commodities may reduce demand for our products and may otherwise adversely affect our business.
We believe that some of the present and projected demand for renewable fuels results from relatively recent increases in the cost of petroleum and certain plant oils. We anticipate that most of our oils, and in particular those used to produce fuels, will be marketed as alternatives to corresponding products based on petroleum and plant oils. If the price of any of these oils falls, we may be unable to produce algal oils or other products that are cost-effective alternatives to their petroleum or plant oil-based counterparts. Declining oil prices, or the perception of a future decline in oil prices, may adversely affect the prices we can obtain from our potential customers or prevent potential customers from entering into agreements with us to buy our products. During sustained periods of lower oil prices we may be unable to sell our products, which could materially and adversely affect our operating results.
Petroleum prices have been extremely volatile, and this volatility is expected to persist. Lower petroleum prices over extended periods of time may change the perceptions in government and the private sector that cheaper, more readily available energy alternatives should be developed and produced. If petroleum prices were to decline from present levels and remain at lower levels for extended periods of time, the demand for renewable fuels could be reduced, and our business and revenue may be harmed.
Prices of plant oils have also experienced significant volatility. If prices for oils such as palm kernel were to materially decrease in the future, there may be less demand for oil alternatives, which could reduce demand for our products and harm our business. The prices of commodities that serve as food ingredients have also been volatile. To the extent that the prices of these commodities decline and remain at lower levels for extended periods of time, the demand for our nutrition products may be reduced, and our ability to successfully compete in this market may be harmed.
Our information technology systems, processes and sites may suffer a significant breach or disruption that may adversely affect our ability to conduct our business.
Our information technology systems, some of which are dependent on services provided by third parties, provide critical data and services for internal and external users, including procurement and inventory management, transaction processing, financial, commercial and operational data, human resources management, legal and tax compliance information and other information and processes necessary to operate and manage our business. Our information technology and infrastructure may experience attacks by hackers, breaches or other failures or disruptions that could compromise our systems and the information stored there. While we have implemented security measures and disaster recovery plans designed to protect

59



the security and continuity of our networks and critical systems, these measures may not adequately prevent adverse events such as breaches or failures from occurring or mitigate their severity if they do occur. If our information technology systems are breached, damaged or fail to function properly due to any number of causes, such as security breaches or cyber-based attacks, systems implementation difficulties, catastrophic events or power outages, and our security, contingency or disaster recovery plans do not effectively mitigate these occurrences on a timely basis, we may experience a material disruption in our ability to manage our business operations. We may also be subject to legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information, potential regulatory penalties and damage to our reputation. These impacts may adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as our competitive position.
Our facilities in California are located near an earthquake fault, and an earthquake or other natural disaster or resource shortage could disrupt our operations.

Important documents and records, such as hard copies of our laboratory books and records for our products and some of our manufacturing operations, are located in our corporate headquarters in South San Francisco, California, near active earthquake zones. In the event of a natural disaster, such as an earthquake, drought or flood, or localized extended outages of critical utilities or transportation systems, we do not have a formal business continuity or disaster recovery plan, and could therefore experience a significant business interruption. In addition, California from time to time has experienced shortages of water, electric power and natural gas. Future shortages and conservation measures could disrupt our operations and could result in additional expense. Although we maintain business interruption insurance coverage, we do not maintain earthquake or flood coverage.
Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property
Our competitive position depends on our ability to effectively obtain and enforce patents related to our products, manufacturing components and manufacturing processes. If we or our licensors fail to adequately protect this intellectual property, our ability and/or our partners ability to commercialize products could suffer.
Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent protection sufficient to prevent others from utilizing our manufacturing components, manufacturing processes or marketing our products, as well as to successfully defend and enforce our patents against infringement by others. In order to protect our products, manufacturing components and manufacturing processes from unauthorized use by third parties, we must hold patent rights that cover our products, manufacturing components and manufacturing processes.
The patent position of biotechnology and bio-industrial companies can be highly uncertain because obtaining and determining the scope of patent rights involves complex legal and factual questions. The standards applied by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and foreign patent offices in granting patents are not always applied uniformly or predictably. There is no uniform worldwide policy regarding patentable subject matter, the scope of claims allowable in biotechnology and bio-industrial patents, or the formal requirements to obtain such patents. Consequently, patents may not issue from our pending patent applications. Furthermore, in the process of seeking patent protection or even after a patent is granted, we could become subject to expensive and protracted proceedings, including patent interference, opposition, post-grant review and re-examination proceedings, which could invalidate or narrow the scope of our patent rights. As such, we do not know nor can we predict the scope and/or breadth of patent protection that we might obtain on our products and technology.
Changes either in patent laws or in interpretations of patent laws in the United States and other countries may diminish the value of our intellectual property rights. In the U.S., depending on the decisions and actions taken by the U.S. Congress, the federal courts, and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the laws and regulations governing patents could change in unpredictable ways that would weaken our ability to obtain new patents or to enforce our existing patents and patents that we might obtain in the future. In foreign jurisdictions, depending on the decisions and actions taken by the foreign government, the judicial system of the jurisdiction, and its patent office, the laws and regulations governing patents could change in unpredictable ways that could weaken our ability to obtain new patents or to enforce our existing patents or patents that we might obtain in the future.
The America Invents Act (AIA), which was signed into law on September�16, 2011, brought a number of changes to the U.S. patent system and affects the way patents are prosecuted, challenged and litigated. Among the changes that went into effect September�16, 2012, one of the most significant involves the implementation of a reformed post-grant review system. Other changes, which went into effect on March�16, 2013, include the transition from a first-to-invent to first-to-file system that attempts to harmonize the U.S. with most of the world. Lack of precedential interpretation of the new provisions of the AIA through specific cases or through guidelines promulgated by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the lack of binding precedent from the courts increase the uncertainty of the impact of the AIA. Together, these changes may increase the costs of

60



prosecution and enforcement of U.S. patents. While it is currently unclear what impact these changes will have on the operation of our business, they may favor companies able to dedicate more resources to patent filings and challenges.
Risks associated with enforcing our intellectual property rights in the United States.
If we were to initiate legal proceedings against a third party to enforce a patent claiming one of our technologies, the defendant could counterclaim that our patent is invalid and/or unenforceable or assert that the patent does not cover its manufacturing processes, manufacturing components or products. Proving patent infringement may be difficult, especially where it is possible to manufacture a product by multiple processes or when a patented process is performed by multiple parties. Patent litigation is also costly, time-consuming and distracting to our management. Furthermore, in patent litigation in the United�States or elsewhere, defendant counterclaims alleging both invalidity and unenforceability are commonplace. Although we believe that we have conducted our patent prosecution in accordance with the duty of candor and in good faith, the outcome following legal assertions of invalidity and unenforceability during patent litigation is unpredictable. With respect to the validity of our patent rights, we cannot be certain, for example, that there is no invalidating prior art, of which we and the patent examiner were unaware during prosecution. If a defendant were to prevail on a legal assertion of invalidity and/or unenforceability, we would not be able to exclude others from practicing the inventions claimed therein. Such a loss of patent protection could have a material adverse effect on our business. Defendant counterclaims of antitrust or other anti-competitive conduct are also commonplace.
Even if our patent rights are found to be valid and enforceable, patent claims that survive litigation may not cover commercially viable products or prevent competitors from importing or marketing products similar to our own, or using manufacturing processes or manufacturing components similar to our own.
Although we believe we have obtained valid assignments of patent rights from all inventors, if an inventor did not adequately assign their patent rights to us, a third party could obtain a license to the patent from such inventor. This could preclude us from enforcing the patent against such third party.
We may not be able to enforce our intellectual property rights throughout the world.
The laws of some foreign countries where we intend to produce and use our proprietary strains in collaboration with sugar mills or other feedstock suppliers do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Many companies have encountered significant problems in protecting and defending intellectual property rights in certain foreign jurisdictions. The legal systems of certain countries, including Brazil and developing countries, do not favor the enforcement of patents and other intellectual property protection, particularly those relating to biotechnology and/or bio-industrial technologies. This could make it difficult for us to stop the infringement of our patents or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights in these countries. Proceedings to enforce our patent rights in certain foreign jurisdictions are unpredictable and could result in substantial costs and divert our efforts and attention from other aspects of our business. Accordingly, our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights in such countries may be inadequate.
Third parties may misappropriate our proprietary strains, information, or trade secrets despite a contractual obligation not to do so.
Third parties (including joint venture, collaboration, development and feedstock partners and former partners, contract manufacturers, and other contractors and shipping agents) often have custody or control of our proprietary microbe strains. If our proprietary microbe strains were stolen, misappropriated or reverse engineered, they could be used by other parties who may be able to use our strains or reverse-engineered strains for their own commercial gain. It is difficult to prevent misappropriation or subsequent reverse engineering. In the event that our proprietary microbe strains are misappropriated, it could be difficult for us to challenge the misappropriation or prevent reverse engineering, especially in countries with limited legal and intellectual property protection.
Confidentiality agreements with employees and third parties may not prevent unauthorized disclosure of proprietary information and trade secrets.
In addition to patents, we rely on confidentiality agreements to protect our technical know-how and other proprietary information. Confidentiality agreements are used, for example, when we talk to potential strategic partners. In addition, each of our employees signed a confidentiality agreement upon joining our company. Nevertheless, there can be no guarantee that an employee or an outside party will not make an unauthorized disclosure or use of our proprietary confidential information. This might happen intentionally or inadvertently. It is possible that a competitor will make use of such information, and that our competitive position will be compromised, in spite of any legal action we might take against persons making such unauthorized disclosures.

61



We also keep as trade secrets certain technical and proprietary information where we do not believe patent protection is appropriate, desirable or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. Although we use reasonable efforts to protect our trade secrets, our employees, consultants, contractors, outside scientific collaborators, partners, former partners and other advisors may unintentionally or willfully disclose our trade secrets to competitors or otherwise use misappropriated trade secrets to compete with us. It can be expensive and time consuming to enforce a claim that a third party illegally obtained and is using our trade secrets. Furthermore, the outcome of such claims is unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States may be less willing to or may not protect trade secrets. Moreover, our competitors may independently design around our intellectual property or develop equivalent knowledge, methods and know-how without misappropriating or otherwise violating our trade secret rights. Where a third party independently designs around our intellectual property or develops equivalent knowledge, methods and know-how without misappropriating or otherwise violating our trade secret rights, they may be able to seek patent protection for such equivalent knowledge, methods and know-how. This could prohibit us from practicing our trade secrets.
Claims by patent holders that our products or manufacturing processes infringe their patent rights could result in costly litigation or could require substantial time and money to resolve, whether or not we are successful, and an unfavorable outcome in these proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our ability to commercialize our technology depends on our ability to develop, manufacture, market and sell our products without infringing the proprietary rights of patent holders or their authorized agents. An issued patent does not guarantee us the right to practice or utilize the patented inventions or commercialize the patented product. Third parties may have blocking patents that may prevent us from commercializing our patented products and utilizing our patented manufacturing components and manufacturing processes. In the event that we are made aware of blocking third party patents, we cannot be sure that licenses to the blocking third-party patents would be available or obtainable on terms favorable to us or at all.
Numerous U.S. and foreign issued patents and pending patent applications, which are owned by third parties, relate to (1)�the production of bio-industrial products, including oils, chemicals, drilling fluids and biofuels, and (2)�the use of microalgae strains, such as microalgae strains containing genes to alter oil composition. As such, there could be existing valid patents that our manufacturing processes, manufacturing components, or products may inadvertently infringe. There could also be existing invalid or unenforceable patents that could nevertheless be asserted against us and would require expenditure of resources to defend. In addition, there are pending patent applications that are currently unpublished and therefore unknown to us that may later result in issued patents that are infringed by our products, manufacturing processes or other aspects of our business.
We may be exposed to future litigation based on claims that our products, manufacturing processes or manufacturing components infringe the intellectual property rights of others. There is inevitable uncertainty in any litigation, including patent litigation. Defending against claims of patent infringement is costly and time consuming, regardless of the outcome. Thus, even if we were to ultimately prevail, or to settle at an early stage of litigation, such litigation could burden us with substantial unanticipated costs. Some of our competitors are larger than we are and have substantially greater resources. These competitors are, therefore, likely to be able to sustain the costs of complex patent litigation longer than we could. In addition, the costs and uncertainty associated with patent litigation could have a material adverse effect on our ability to continue our internal research and development programs, in-license needed technology, or enter into strategic partnerships that would help us commercialize our technologies. In addition, litigation or threatened litigation could result in significant demands on the time and attention of our management team, distracting them from the pursuit of other company business.
If a party successfully asserts a patent or other intellectual property rights against us, we might be barred from using certain of our manufacturing processes or manufacturing components, or from developing and commercializing related products. Injunctions against using specified processes or components, or prohibitions against commercializing specified products, could be imposed by a court or by a settlement agreement between us and a third party. In addition, we may be required to pay substantial damage awards to the third party, including treble or enhanced damages if we are found to have willfully infringed the third partys intellectual property rights. We may also be required to obtain a license from the third party in order to continue manufacturing and/or marketing the products that were found to infringe. It is possible that the necessary license will not be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. This could limit our ability to competitively commercialize some or all of our products.
During the course of any patent litigation, there could be public announcements of the results of hearings, rulings on motions, and other interim proceedings in the litigation. If securities analysts or investors regard these announcements as negative, the perceived value of our products, technology or intellectual property could be diminished. Accordingly, the market price of our common stock may decline.

62



We have received government funding in connection with the development of certain of our proprietary technologies, which could negatively affect our intellectual property rights in such technologies.
Some of our proprietary technology was developed with U.S. federal government funding. When new technologies are developed with U.S. government funding, the government obtains certain rights in any resulting patents, including a nonexclusive license authorizing the government to use the invention for non-commercial purposes. These rights may permit the government to disclose our confidential information to third parties and to exercise march-in rights to use or allow third parties to use our patented technology. The government can exercise its march-in rights if it determines that action is necessary because we fail to achieve practical application of the U.S.�government-funded technology, because action is necessary to alleviate health or safety needs, to meet requirements of federal regulations, or to give preference to U.S. industry. In addition, U.S.�government-funded inventions must be reported to the government and U.S.�government funding must be disclosed in any resulting patent applications. In addition, our rights in such inventions are subject to government license rights and foreign manufacturing restrictions. Any exercise by the government of such rights could harm our competitive position or impact our operating results.
In addition, some of our technology was funded by a grant from the State of California. Inventions funded by this grant may be subject to forfeiture if we do not seek to patent or practically apply them. Any such forfeiture could have a materially adverse effect on our business. For proprietary technology developed with funding from the State of California, certain confidential information may be disclosed to third parties by the State of California. Our rights in such inventions are subject to State of California license and march-in rights. Any exercise by the State of California of such rights could harm our competitive position or impact our operating results.
Risks Related to Our Finances and Capital Requirements
Our financial results could vary significantly from quarter to quarter and are difficult to predict.
Our revenues and results of operations could vary significantly from quarter to quarter because of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result, comparing our results of operations on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful. Factors that could cause our quarterly results of operations to fluctuate include:
"
achievement, or failure to achieve, technology or product development milestones needed to allow us to enter target markets on a cost effective basis;
"
delays or greater than anticipated expenses associated with the completion of new manufacturing facilities, and the time to complete scale up of production following completion of a new manufacturing facility;
"
our capital requirements or capital requirements of our joint ventures;
"
our ability to effectively manage larger working capital positions as we increase commercial production and distribution of our products;
"
disruptions in the production process at any facility where we produce our products, including due to equipment failure or accidents;
"
the timing, size and mix of sales to customers for our products;
"
increases in price or decreases in availability of feedstocks;
"
fluctuations in the price of, and demand for, products based on petroleum or other oils for which our products are alternatives;
"
the unavailability of contract manufacturing capacity altogether or at anticipated cost;
"
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;
"
seasonal production and sale of our products;
"
the effects of competitive pricing pressures, including decreases in average selling prices of our products;
"
unanticipated expenses associated with changes in governmental regulations and environmental, health and safety requirements;
"
reductions or changes to existing regulations and policies that impact the fuel, chemical, nutrition, oil field services or skin and personal care markets;
"
departure of key employees;
"
business interruptions, such as earthquakes and other natural disasters;
"
our ability to integrate businesses that we may acquire;
"
risks associated with the international aspects of our business; and
"
changes in general economic, industry and market conditions, both domestically and in foreign markets in which we operate.
Due to these factors and others the results of any quarterly or annual period may not meet our expectations or the expectations of our investors and may not be meaningful indications of our future performance.

63



We may require additional financing in the future and may not be able to obtain such financing on favorable terms, if at all, which could force us to delay, reduce or eliminate our research and development or commercialization activities.
To date, we have financed our operations primarily through our initial public offering, completed in June 2011, public and private placements of our equity and convertible debt securities, credit facilities, government grants and funding from strategic partners. In January 2013 we issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018 (the 2018 Notes). The 2018 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.00%�per year, payable in cash semi-annually. As of March 31, 2014, approximately $61.3 million aggregate principal amount of the 2018 Notes was outstanding. In April 2014 we issued 5,750,000 shares of our common stock and $149.5 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2019 (the 2019 Notes). The 2019 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.00% per year, payable in cash semi-annually. We have also entered into the HSBC facility that provides for a $35.0 million revolving facility for working capital and letters of credit. While we plan to enter into relationships with partners or collaborators for them to provide some portion or all of the capital needed to build production facilities, we may determine that it is more advantageous for us to provide some portion or all of the financing for new production facilities. Some of our previous funding has come from government grants; however, our future ability to obtain government grants is uncertain due to the competitive bid process and other factors.
In addition, we may have to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financings to meet our capital requirements, including our portion of joint venture funding requirements. For example, although the Solazyme Bunge JV entered a loan agreement with BNDES for project financing funding to support the joint ventures production facility in Brazil, including a portion of the construction costs of the facility, and has drawn on the funds, if we are unable to finalize the corporate guarantee documentation on acceptable terms, the Solazyme Bunge JV will be unable to draw down amounts under the loan in excess of amounts supported by bank guarantees and may have to seek additional financing. If the Solazyme Bunge JV is unable to secure additional financing, we will be required to fund our portion of the Solazyme Bunge JVs capital requirements from existing sources or seek additional financing. In addition, our working capital requirements and the working capital requirements of the Solazyme Bunge JV are likely to increase as we and the Solazyme Bunge JV increase and begin production, respectively, due to an increase in inventory and the manufacture of out-of-specification product during the ramp-up of commercial production. We may not be able to raise sufficient additional funds on terms that are favorable to us, if at all. If we fail to raise sufficient funds and continue to incur losses, our ability to fund our operations, take advantage of strategic opportunities, develop and commercialize products or technologies, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures could be significantly limited. If this happens, we may be forced to delay or terminate research and development programs or the commercialization of products resulting from our technologies, curtail or cease operations or obtain funds through collaborative and licensing arrangements that may require us to relinquish commercial rights, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. If adequate funds are not available, we will not be able to successfully execute our business plan or continue our business.
Servicing our debt will require a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay amounts due under our indebtedness.
As of September 30, 2014, our total consolidated indebtedness was $211.2 million. Of our $211.2 million of indebtedness, $22,000 is currently secured. In the event the Solazyme Bunge JV draws funds under the BNDES loan in excess of the amount supported by bank guarantees, we may be required to provide a corporate guarantee with respect to such excess amount.
Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay interest on or to refinance our indebtedness, including the 2018 Notes and the 2019 Notes, depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not continue to generate cash flow from operations in the future sufficient to service our debt and make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations.
Despite our current debt levels, we may still incur substantially more debt or take other actions which would intensify the risks discussed above.
Despite our current consolidated debt levels, we and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional debt in the future, subject to the restrictions contained in our debt instruments, some of which may be secured debt. We are not restricted under the terms of the indentures governing the 2018 Notes and 2019 Notes from incurring additional debt, securing existing or future debt, recapitalizing our debt or taking a number of other actions that are not limited by the terms of the indentures governing the 2018 Notes and the 2019 Notes that could have the effect of diminishing our ability to make payments

64



on the notes when due. Our existing HSBC facility restricts our ability to incur additional indebtedness, including secured indebtedness, but if the facility matures or is repaid, we may not be subject to such restrictions under the terms of any subsequent indebtedness.
We have received government grant funding and entered contracts with government agencies, and may pursue government grant funding or contracts in the future. Our receipt of government funds through grants and contracts subjects us to additional regulatory oversight.
We have received government grants and have entered contracts with government agencies in the past. Activities funded by a government grant or pursuant to government contracts are subject to audits by government agencies. As part of an audit, these agencies may review our performance, cost structures and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards. Grant funds must be applied by us toward the research and development programs specified by the granting agency, rather than for all of our programs generally. If any of our grant-funded costs are found to be allocated improperly, the costs may not be reimbursed and any costs already reimbursed may have to be refunded. Accordingly, an audit could result in an adjustment to our revenues and results of operations. We are also subject to additional regulations based on our receipt of government grant funding and entry into government contracts. If we fail to comply with the requirements under our grants or contracts, we may face penalties or other negative consequences, and in such event we may not be awarded government funding or contracts in the future.
If we engage in any acquisitions, we will incur a variety of costs and may potentially face numerous risks that could adversely affect our business and operations.
If appropriate opportunities become available, we may seek to acquire additional businesses, assets, technologies or products to enhance our business. In connection with any acquisitions, we could issue additional equity or equity-linked securities such as the 2018 Notes or 2019 Notes, which would dilute our stockholders, incur substantial debt to fund the acquisitions, or assume significant liabilities.
Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including problems integrating the purchased operations, technologies or products, unanticipated costs and other liabilities, diversion of managements attention from our core businesses, adverse effects on existing business relationships with current and/or prospective collaborators, customers and/or suppliers, risks associated with entering markets in which we have no or limited prior experience and potential loss of key employees. Acquisitions may also require us to record goodwill and non-amortizable intangible assets that will be subject to impairment testing on a regular basis and potential periodic impairment charges, incur amortization expenses related to certain intangible assets, and incur write offs and restructuring and other related expenses, any of which could harm our operating results and financial condition. If we fail in our integration efforts with respect to any of our acquisitions and are unable to efficiently operate as a combined organization, our business and financial condition may be adversely affected.
Raising additional funds may cause dilution to our stockholders or require us to relinquish valuable rights.
If we elect to raise additional funds through equity offerings or offerings of equity-linked securities, our stockholders would likely experience dilution. Debt financing, if available, may subject us to restrictive covenants that could limit our flexibility in conducting future business activities. For example, the HSBC facility contains financial covenants that, if breached, would require us to secure our obligations thereunder. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, it may be necessary for us to share a portion of the margin from the sale of our products. We may also be required to relinquish or license on unfavorable terms our rights to technologies or products that we otherwise would seek to develop or commercialize ourselves.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we might not be able to report our financial results accurately or prevent fraud; in that case, our stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and could negatively impact the price of our stock.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. In addition, Section�404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us and our independent registered public accounting firm to evaluate and report on our internal control over financial reporting, and have our chief executive officer and chief financial officer certify as to the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports. The process of implementing our internal controls and complying with Section�404 is expensive and time consuming, and requires significant attention from management. We cannot be certain that these measures will ensure that we implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future.
Our management has concluded that there are no material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. However, there can be no assurance that our controls over financial processes and reporting will be

65



effective in the future or that material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls will not be discovered in the future. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect fraud or misstatements. Failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our results of operations or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. If we or our independent registered public accounting firm discover a material weakness, the disclosure of that fact, even if quickly remedied, could reduce the markets confidence in our financial statements and harm our stock price.
Risks Relating to Securities Markets and Investment in Our Stock
The price of our common stock may be volatile.
Stock markets have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. In addition, the average daily trading volume of the securities of small companies, particularly small technology companies, can be very low. Limited trading volume of our stock may contribute to its volatility. Price declines in our common stock could result from general market and economic conditions and a variety of other factors, including any of the risk factors described in this report.
These broad market and industry factors may seriously harm the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. The market price of our common stock could also be affected by possible sales of our common stock by investors who view our convertible notes as a more attractive means of equity participation in us and by hedging or arbitrage trading activity that we expect involving our common stock.
The sale or issuance by us of substantial amounts of our common stock could adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.
A substantial number of shares of our common stock may be issued in connection with the exercise of options outstanding under our equity incentive plans, the vesting of restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, the exercise of outstanding warrants, the conversion of or exchange for outstanding 2018 Notes and 2019 Notes. See Note 3 in the accompanying notes to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the number of outstanding shares of potentially dilutive securities. Also see Note 11 in the accompanying notes for information regarding the possible conversion of the 2018 Notes and 2019 Notes into shares of our common stock. Further, under our Collaboration Agreement with ADM, we have the right to deliver our common stock for a portion of the annual amounts due under the agreement for use and operation of the Clinton Facility. In addition, we expect to issue additional shares under our equity incentive plans and employee stock purchase plan in the future. In the future, we may issue additional shares of common stock or other equity-linked securities to raise additional capital.
Any future sale or issuance of common stock could adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.
Our certificate of incorporation, our bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions that could discourage another company from acquiring us and may prevent attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management.
Provisions of Delaware law (where we are incorporated), our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which you might otherwise receive a premium for your shares. In addition, these provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult for stockholders to replace or remove our board of directors. These provisions include:
"
authorizing the issuance of blank check preferred stock without any need for action by stockholders;
"
requiring supermajority stockholder voting to effect certain amendments to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws;
"
eliminating the ability of stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders;
"
prohibiting stockholder action by written consent;
"
establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by stockholders at stockholder meetings; and

dividing our board of directors into three classes so that only one third of our directors will be up for election in any given year.
In addition, we are subject to Section�203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which, under certain circumstances, may make it more difficult for a person who would be an interested stockholder, as defined in Section�203, to effect various business combinations with us for a three-year period. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws do not exclude us from the restrictions imposed under Section�203. These provisions could impede a merger, takeover or other business

combination involving us or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer for our common stock, which, under certain circumstances, could reduce the market price of our common stock.
Being a public company increases our expenses and administrative burden.
As a public company, we incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses. For example, as a public company, we have adopted internal and disclosure controls and procedures and bear all of the internal and external costs of preparing and distributing periodic public reports in compliance with our obligations under applicable securities laws.
In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related regulations implemented by the SEC and the NASDAQ-GS, create uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs and making some activities more time consuming. We evaluate and monitor developments with respect to new and proposed rules and cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of managements time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and compensation committee, and attract and retain qualified executive officers. If these requirements divert our managements attention from other business concerns, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If securities or industry analysts do not continue to publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our common stock depends in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. If securities or industry analysts do not continue coverage of our company, the trading price for our common stock would be negatively impacted. If one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our common stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the price of our common stock would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our common stock could decrease, which might cause the price of our common stock and its trading volume to decline.
We do not anticipate paying cash dividends, and accordingly, stockholders must rely on stock appreciation for any return on their investment.
We do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, only appreciation of the price of our common stock, which may never occur, would provide a return to stockholders. Our HSBC facility restricts our ability to pay cash dividends, and we may be subject to additional dividend restrictions under the terms of future indebtedness. Investors seeking cash dividends should not invest in our common stock.

1.PREMISES, BUILDING, PROJECT, AND COMMON AREAS
1.1����Premises, Building, Project and Common Areas.
1.1.1����The Premises. Landlord hereby leases to Tenant and Tenant hereby leases from Landlord the premises set forth in Section�2.2 of the Summary (the "Premises"). The outline of the Premises is set forth in Exhibit�A attached hereto and the Premises has the number of rentable square feet as set forth in Section�2.2 of the Summary, which shall not be changed except in connection with a change in the physical size of the Premises. The parties hereto agree that the lease of the Premises is upon and subject to the terms, covenants and conditions herein set forth, and Tenant covenants as a material part of the consideration for this Lease to keep and perform each and all of such terms, covenants and conditions by it to be kept and performed and that this Lease is made upon the condition of such performance. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that the purpose of Exhibit�A is to show the approximate location of the Premises only, and such Exhibit is not meant to constitute an agreement, representation or warranty as to the construction of the Premises, the precise area thereof or the specific location of the "Common Areas," as that term is defined in Section�1.1.3, below, or the elements thereof or of the accessways to the Premises or the "Project," as that term is defined in Section�1.1.2, below. Tenant acknowledges that it has been occupying the Premises pursuant to the terms of the "Sublease", as defined in Section�1.1.4, below, and shall continue accept the Premises in its presently existing "as-is" condition and Landlord shall not be obligated to provide or pay for any improvement work or services related to the improvement of the Premises except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Lease or in the Tenant Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit B. For purposes of Section 1938 of the California Civil Code, Landlord hereby discloses to Tenant, and Tenant hereby acknowledges, that the Project, Building and Premises have not undergone inspection by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp).
1.1.1.1����Building Systems Warranty. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall, at Landlord's sole cost and expense (which shall not be deemed an "Operating Expense," as that term is defined in Section�4.2.4), repair or replace any failed, inoperable, or damaged or obsolete portion of the air conditioning and heating systems and the roof membrane (collectively, the "Warranted Systems", and such Landlord obligation, the "Systems Warranty"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Systems Warranty shall not apply to (i)�repairs or replacements caused by the misuse, misconduct, damage, destruction, omissions, and/or negligence of Tenant or any Tenant Parties, or (ii) repairs or replacements required due to any modifications, Alterations or improvements constructed by or on behalf of Tenant (collectively, "Tenant Repair Responsibilities").� To the extent repairs which Landlord is required to make pursuant to this Section�1.1.1.1 are necessitated in part by Tenant Repair Responsibilities, then Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for an equitable proportion of the cost of such repair.� Landlord will not require FibroGen, Inc., to remove or restore any portion of the building management system or card access system, or any other component of any Building systems to the extent that removal would interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises.
1.1.2����The Building and The Project. The Premises consist of both buildings set forth in Section�2.1 of the Summary (the "Building"). The term "Project," as used in this Lease, shall mean (i) the Buildings and the Common Areas, (ii) the land (which is improved with landscaping, parking facilities and other improvements) upon which the Buildings and the Common Areas are located, and (iii) at Landlord's reasonable discretion, any additional real property, areas, land, buildings or other improvements added thereto outside of the Project.
1.1.3����Common Areas. Tenant shall have the non-exclusive right to use in common with other tenants in the Project, if any and subject to the rules and regulations referred to in Article 5 of this Lease, those portions of the Project which are provided, from time to time, for use in common by Landlord, Tenant and any other tenants of the Project, if any (such areas, together with such other portions of the Project designated by Landlord, in its discretion, including certain areas designated for the exclusive use of certain tenants, or to be shared by Landlord and certain tenants, are collectively referred to herein as the "Common Areas"). The manner in which the Common Areas are maintained and operated shall be at the sole discretion of Landlord and the use thereof shall be subject to such rules, regulations and restrictions as Landlord may make from time to time; provided that such manner, rules and regulations are consistent with those in use in comparable First Class Life Science Projects. Landlord reserves the right to close temporarily, make alterations or additions to, or change the location of elements of the Project and the Common Areas, provided that, in connection therewith, Landlord shall perform such closures, alterations, additions or changes in a commercially reasonable manner and, in connection therewith, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize

any material interference with Tenant's use of and access to the Premises, and shall not reduce the number of parking spaces available to Tenant, and shall use its best efforts to give Tenant notice of any planned power shutdown at least ten (10) business days in advance, and shall inform Tenant as soon as there is any possibility of such shutdown and work cooperatively with Tenant to plan for such shutdown.
1.1.4����Existing Sublease. As of the date hereof Tenant is occupying the majority of the Premises pursuant to that certain Sublease dated December 31, 2009, between Tenant, as subtenant, and FibroGen, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("FibroGen"), as Sublandlord (such Sublease, as amended, the "Sublease"). The Sublease has been made subject to (i)�that certain Build-to-Suit Lease dated December 20, 1996 (the "225 Lease"), between FibroGen, as tenant, and Landlord, as landlord, and (ii)�that certain Build-to-Suit Lease dated February 8, 2000 (the "201 Lease"), between FibroGen, as tenant, and Landlord, as landlord (the 225 Lease and 201 Lease, as amended, being referred to collectively as the "FibroGen Leases"). The Sublease and FibroGen Lease are each scheduled to expire on February 4, 2015, and the Lease Commencement Date under this Lease shall occur immediately upon such termination. Notwithstanding such termination of the Sublease and FibroGen Lease, Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall remain obligated to Landlord, as a direct obligation under this Lease, to perform the removal and restoration obligations that Tenant currently has as subtenant under the Sublease, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, all at Tenant's sole cost and expense (the "Continuing Obligations"). If Landlord and Tenant reach agreement on a new lease to continue in the Premises, or the parties enter into the lease contemplated by Section�1.3, below, for a period of not less than seven (7) years after the expiration of the initial Lease Term (which agreement may be made or not made in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord and Tenant), then in either such case Landlord will waive the Continuing Obligations. The Continuing Obligations shall be limited to the restoration and repair items set forth in Exhibit�F, attached hereto.
1.2����Stipulation of Rentable Square Feet of Premises. For purposes of this Lease, "rentable square feet" of the Premises shall be deemed as set forth in Section 2.2 of the Summary.
1.3����Relocation / Build to Suit. Affiliates of Landlord (the "HCP Entities") own development property in the South San Francisco, East Bay and South Bay markets. If Tenant and one of the HCP Entities enter into an agreement for a build-to-suit lease transaction involving a building of more than 150,000 RSF in any of these markets (which agreement may be made or not made in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord or any HCP Entity), then Landlord shall to terminate this Lease as of the date that rent commences to be owing under such new build-to-suit lease transaction (and, in connection with the negotiation of such new build-to-suit lease transaction, Landlord and Tenant will enter into an amendment to this Lease documenting the terms of such termination of this Lease), giving Tenant one (1) week, free of any Rent under this Lease, to relocate from the Project to such new building.
2.����LEASE TERM
The terms and provisions of this Lease shall be effective as of the date of this Lease. The term of this Lease (the "Lease Term") shall be as set forth in Section�3.1 of the Summary, shall commence on the date set forth in Section�3.2 of the Summary (the "Lease Commencement Date"), and shall terminate on the date set forth in Section�3.3 of the Summary (the "Lease Expiration Date") unless this Lease is sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. For purposes of this Lease, the term "Lease Year" shall mean each consecutive twelve (12) month period during the Lease Term, provided that the first Lease Year shall commence on the Lease Commencement Date, and end as of the end of the twelfth (12th) month following the Lease Commencement Date. At any time during the Lease Term, Landlord may deliver to Tenant a notice in the form as set forth in Exhibit�C, attached hereto, as a confirmation only of the information set forth therein, which Tenant shall execute and return to Landlord within ten (10) business days of receipt thereof.
3.����BASE RENT
Tenant shall pay, without prior notice or demand, to Landlord or Landlord's agent at the management office of the Project, or, at Landlord's option, at such other place as Landlord may from time to time designate in writing, by a check for currency which, at the time of payment, is legal tender for private or public debts in the United States of America, base rent ("Base Rent") as set forth in Section�4 of the Summary, payable in equal monthly installments as set forth in Section�4 of the Summary in advance on or before the first day of each and every calendar month during

the Lease Term, without any setoff or deduction whatsoever (except for any abatement as permitted under the express terms of this Lease). If any Rent payment date (including the Lease Commencement Date) falls on a day of the month other than the first day of such month or if any payment of Rent is for a period which is shorter than one month, the Rent for any fractional month shall accrue on a daily basis for the period from the date such payment is due to the end of such calendar month or to the end of the Lease Term at a rate per day which is equal to 1/365 of the applicable annual Rent. All other payments or adjustments required to be made under the terms of this Lease that require proration on a time basis shall be prorated on the same basis.
4.����ADDITIONAL RENT
4.1����General Terms. In addition to paying the Base Rent specified in Article 3 of this Lease, Tenant shall pay "Tenant's Share" of the annual "Direct Expenses," as those terms are defined in Sections 4.2.6 and 4.2.2 of this Lease, respectively. Such payments by Tenant, together with any and all other amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this Lease, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Additional Rent", and the Base Rent and the Additional Rent are herein collectively referred to as "Rent." All amounts due under this Article 4 as Additional Rent shall be payable for the same periods and in the same manner as the Base Rent. Without limitation on other obligations of Tenant which survive the expiration of the Lease Term, the obligations of Tenant to pay the Additional Rent provided for in this Article 4 shall survive the expiration of the Lease Term.
4.2����Definitions of Key Terms Relating to Additional Rent. As used in this Article�4, the following terms shall have the meanings hereinafter set forth:
4.2.1����Intentionally Omitted.
4.2.2����"Direct Expenses" shall mean "Operating Expenses" and "Tax Expenses."
4.2.3����"Expense Year" shall mean each calendar year in which any portion of the Lease Term falls, through and including the calendar year in which the Lease Term expires, provided that Landlord, upon notice to Tenant, may change the Expense Year from time to time to any other twelve (12) consecutive month period, and, in the event of any such change, Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses shall be equitably adjusted for any Expense Year involved in any such change.
4.2.4����"Operating Expenses" shall mean all expenses, costs and amounts of every kind and nature which Landlord pays or accrues during any Expense Year because of or in connection with the ownership, management, maintenance, security, repair, replacement, restoration or operation of the Project, or any portion thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Operating Expenses shall specifically include any and all of the following: (i) the cost of supplying all utilities, the cost of operating, repairing, maintaining, and renovating the utility, telephone, mechanical, sanitary, storm drainage, and elevator systems, and the cost of maintenance and service contracts in connection therewith; (ii) the cost of licenses, certificates, permits and inspections and the cost of contesting any governmental enactments which may affect Operating Expenses, and the costs incurred in connection with a governmentally mandated transportation system management program or similar program; (iii) the cost of premiums for all insurance carried by Landlord in connection with the Project as reasonably determined by Landlord; (iv) the cost of landscaping, relamping, and all supplies, tools, equipment and materials used in the operation, repair and maintenance of the Project, or any portion thereof; (v) the cost of parking area operation, repair, restoration, and maintenance; (vi) fees and other costs, including (provided that management fees shall not be in excess of 3% of gross revenues of the Project, grossed up for full occupancy) and/or incentive fees, consulting fees, legal fees and accounting fees, of all contractors and consultants in connection with the management, operation, maintenance and repair of the Project; (vii) payments under any equipment rental agreements and the fair rental value of any management office space; (viii) subject to item (f), below, wages, salaries and other compensation and benefits, including taxes levied thereon, of all persons engaged in the operation, maintenance and security of the Project; (ix) costs under any instrument pertaining to the sharing of costs by the Project; (x) operation, repair, maintenance and replacement of all systems and equipment and components thereof of the Project (provided that any capital expenditure shall be amortized as provided in item (xiii), below); (xi) the cost of janitorial, alarm, security and other services, replacement of wall and floor coverings, ceiling tiles and fixtures in common areas, maintenance and replacement of curbs and walkways, repair to

roofs and re-roofing (provided that any capital expenditure shall be amortized as provided in item (xiii), below); (xii) amortization (including reasonable interest on the unamortized cost) over such period of time as Landlord shall reasonably determine in accordance with industry standards, of the cost of acquiring or the rental expense of personal property used in the maintenance, operation and repair of the Project, or any portion thereof; (xiii) the cost of capital improvements or other costs incurred in connection with the Project (A) which actually reduce expenses in the operation or maintenance of the Project, or any portion thereof, or reduce current or future Operating Expenses or to enhance the safety or security of the Project or its occupants, (B) that are required to comply with present or anticipated mandatory conservation programs, (C) which are replacements or modifications of nonstructural items, including any systems or equipment serving the Premises, or (D) that are required under any governmental law or regulation that was not in force or effect as of the Commencement Date; provided, however, that any capital expenditure shall be amortized (including reasonable interest on the amortized cost as reasonably determined by Landlord using reasonable industry standards) over the reasonable useful life of such item; and (xiv) costs, fees, charges or assessments imposed by, or resulting from any mandate imposed on Landlord by, any federal, state or local government for fire and police protection, trash removal, community services, or other services which do not constitute "Tax Expenses" as that term is defined in Section�4.2.5, below, and (xv)�payments under any easement, license, operating agreement, declaration, restrictive covenant, or instrument pertaining to the sharing of costs by the Building, including, without limitation, any covenants, conditions and restrictions affecting the property, and reciprocal easement agreements affecting the property, any parking licenses, and any agreements with transit agencies affecting the Property (collectively, "Underlying Documents"). Costs incurred as a result of insurance deductible amounts shall be included in Operating Expenses only in the manner provided in this Section 4.2.4, and only to the extent otherwise allowed to be included in Operating Expenses by this Section 4.2.4.

4.2.5����Taxes.
4.2.5.1����"Tax Expenses" shall mean all federal, state, county, or local governmental or municipal taxes, fees, charges or other impositions of every kind and nature, whether general, special, ordinary or extraordinary (including, without limitation, real estate taxes, general and special assessments, transit taxes, leasehold taxes or taxes based upon the receipt of rent, including gross receipts or sales taxes applicable to the receipt of rent, unless required to be paid by Tenant, personal property taxes imposed upon the fixtures, machinery, equipment, apparatus, systems and equipment, appurtenances, furniture and other personal property used in connection with the Project, or any portion thereof), which shall be paid or accrued during any Expense Year (without regard to any different fiscal year used by such governmental or municipal authority) because of or in connection with the ownership, leasing and operation of the Project, or any portion thereof.
4.2.5.2����Tax Expenses shall include, without limitation: (i) Any tax on the rent, right to rent or other income from the Project, or any portion thereof, or as against the business of leasing the Project, or any portion thereof; (ii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge in addition to, or in substitution, partially or totally, of any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge previously included within the definition of real property tax; (iii) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy, or charge allocable to or measured by the area of the Premises or the Rent payable hereunder, including, without limitation, any business or gross income tax or excise tax with respect to the receipt of such rent, or upon or with respect to the possession, leasing, operating, management, maintenance, alteration, repair, use or occupancy by Tenant of the Premises, or any portion thereof; and (iv) Any assessment, tax, fee, levy or charge, upon this transaction or any document to which Tenant is a party, creating or transferring an interest or an estate in the Premises or the improvements thereon.
4.2.5.3����Any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and consultants' fees) incurred in attempting to protest, reduce or minimize Tax Expenses shall be included in Tax Expenses in the Expense Year such expenses are incurred. Tax refunds shall be credited against Tax Expenses and refunded to Tenant regardless of when received, based on the Expense Year to which the refund is applicable, provided that in no event shall the amount to be refunded to Tenant for any such Expense Year exceed the total amount paid by Tenant as Additional Rent under this Article 4 for such Expense Year.

general or net income (as opposed to rents, receipts or income attributable to operations at the Project), (ii) any items included as Operating Expenses, and (iii) any items paid by Tenant under Section�4.5 of this Lease.
4.2.6����"Tenant's Share" shall mean the percentage set forth in Section�7 of the Summary.
4.3����Intentionally Omitted.
4.4����Calculation and Payment of Additional Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, in the manner set forth in Section�4.4.1, below, and as Additional Rent, Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for each Expense Year.
4.4.1����Statement of Actual Direct Expenses and Payment by Tenant. Landlord shall endeavor to give to Tenant within five (5) months following the end of each Expense Year, a statement (the "Statement") which shall state the Direct Expenses incurred or accrued for such preceding Expense Year, and which shall indicate the amount of Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses. Upon receipt of the Statement for each Expense Year commencing or ending during the Lease Term, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, the full amount of Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for such Expense Year, less the amounts, if any, paid during such Expense Year as "Estimated Direct Expenses," as that term is defined in Section�4.4.2, below, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Direct Expenses than the actual Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses, Tenant shall receive a credit in the amount of Tenant's overpayment against Rent next due under this Lease. The failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Statement for any Expense Year shall not prejudice Landlord or Tenant from enforcing its rights under this Article 4. Even though the Lease Term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, when the final determination is made of Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for the Expense Year in which this Lease terminates, Tenant shall pay to Landlord such amount within thirty (30) days, and if Tenant paid more as Estimated Direct Expenses than the actual Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses, Landlord shall, within thirty (30) days, deliver a check payable to Tenant in the amount of the overpayment. The provisions of this Section�4.4.1 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease Term. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Tenant shall not be responsible for Tenants Share of any Direct Expenses attributable to any Expense Year which are first billed to Tenant more than nine (9) months after the earlier of the expiration of the applicable Expense Year or the Lease Expiration Date, other than expenses levied by any governmental authority or by any public utility companies, as to which such period shall be twenty-four (24) months (provided that Landlord must deliver Tenant a bill for any such amounts within twelve (12) months following Landlords receipt of the bill therefor).
4.4.2����Statement of Estimated Direct Expenses. In addition, Landlord shall endeavor to give Tenant a yearly expense estimate statement (the "Estimate Statement") which shall set forth Landlord's reasonable estimate (the "Estimate") not later than May 1 of each year, of what the total amount of Direct Expenses for the then-current Expense Year shall be and the estimated Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses (the "Estimated Direct Expenses"). Except as limited by the provisions of Section 4.4.1 above, the failure of Landlord to timely furnish the Estimate Statement for any Expense Year shall not preclude Landlord from enforcing its rights to collect any Estimated Direct Expenses under this Article 4, nor shall Landlord be prohibited from revising any Estimate Statement or Estimated Direct Expenses theretofore delivered to the extent necessary. Thereafter, Tenant shall pay, with its next installment of Base Rent due, a fraction of the Estimated Direct Expenses for the then-current Expense Year (reduced by any amounts paid pursuant to the last sentence of this Section�4.4.2). Such fraction shall have as its numerator the number of months which have elapsed in such current Expense Year, including the month of such payment, and twelve (12) as its denominator. Until a new Estimate Statement is furnished (which Landlord shall have the right to deliver to Tenant at any time), Tenant shall pay monthly, with the monthly Base Rent installments, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the total Estimated Direct Expenses set forth in the previous Estimate Statement delivered by Landlord to Tenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant may request from Landlord not more often than quarterly, an updated estimate of Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses.
4.5����Taxes and Other Charges for Which Tenant Is Directly Responsible. Tenant shall be liable for and shall pay ten (10) days before delinquency, taxes levied against Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property located in or about the Premises. If any such taxes on Tenant's equipment, furniture, fixtures and any other personal property are levied against Landlord or Landlord's property or if the assessed value of Landlord's property is increased by the inclusion therein of a value placed upon such equipment, furniture, fixtures or any other personal property and if Landlord pays the taxes based upon such increased assessment, which Landlord shall have the

right to do regardless of the validity thereof but only under proper protest if requested by Tenant, Tenant shall upon demand repay to Landlord the taxes so levied against Landlord or the proportion of such taxes resulting from such increase in the assessment, as the case may be.
4.6����Landlord's Books and Records. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of a Statement by Tenant, if Tenant disputes the amount of Additional Rent set forth in the Statement, an independent certified public accountant (which accountant is a member of a nationally recognized accounting firm and is not working on a contingency fee basis), designated and paid for by Tenant and reasonably approved by Landlord, may, after reasonable notice to Landlord and at reasonable times, inspect Landlord's records with respect to the Statement at Landlord's offices in the San Francisco Bay Area, provided that Tenant is not then in default under this Lease and Tenant has paid all amounts required to be paid under the applicable Estimate Statement and Statement, as the case may be. In connection with such inspection, Tenant and Tenant's agents must agree in advance to follow Landlord's reasonable rules and procedures regarding inspections of Landlord's records, and shall execute a commercially reasonable confidentiality agreement regarding such inspection. Tenant's failure to dispute the amount of Additional Rent set forth in any Statement within one hundred twenty (120) days of Tenant's receipt of such Statement shall be deemed to be Tenant's approval of such Statement and Tenant, thereafter, waives the right or ability to dispute the amounts set forth in such Statement. If after such inspection, Tenant still disputes such Additional Rent, a determination as to the proper amount shall be made, at Tenant's expense, by an independent certified public accountant (the "Accountant") selected by Landlord and subject to Tenant's reasonable approval; provided that if such determination by the Accountant proves that Direct Expenses were overstated by more than three percent (3%), then the cost of the Accountant and the cost of such determination shall be paid for by Landlord. Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant's sole right to inspect Landlord's books and records and to contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant shall be as set forth in this Section�4.6, and Tenant hereby waives any and all other rights pursuant to applicable law to inspect such books and records and/or to contest the amount of Direct Expenses payable by Tenant.
5.����USE OF PREMISES
5.1����Permitted Use. Tenant shall use the Premises solely for the Permitted Use set forth in Section�8 of the Summary and Tenant shall not use or permit the Premises or the Project to be used for any other purpose or purposes whatsoever without the prior written consent of Landlord, which may be withheld in Landlord's sole discretion.
5.2����Prohibited Uses. Tenant further covenants and agrees that Tenant shall not use, or suffer or permit any person or persons to use, the Premises or any part thereof for any use or purpose contrary to the provisions of the Rules and Regulations set forth in Exhibit�D, attached hereto, or in violation of the laws of the United States of America, the State of California, or the ordinances, regulations or requirements of the local municipal or county governing body or other lawful authorities having jurisdiction over the Project, including, without limitation, any such laws, ordinances, regulations or requirements relating to hazardous materials or substances, as those terms are defined by applicable laws now or hereafter in effect, or any Underlying Documents. Tenant shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises which will in any way damage the reputation of the Project or obstruct or interfere with the rights of other tenants or occupants of the Project, if any, or injure or annoy them or use or allow the Premises to be used for any improper, unlawful or objectionable purpose, nor shall Tenant cause, maintain or permit any nuisance in, on or about the Premises. Tenant shall comply with, and Tenant's rights and obligations under the Lease and Tenant's use of the Premises shall be subject and subordinate to, all recorded easements, covenants, conditions, and restrictions now or hereafter affecting the Project.
5.3����Intentionally Deleted.
5.4����Hazardous Materials.
5.4.1����Tenant's Obligations.

If any information provided to Landlord by Tenant on the Environmental Questionnaire, or otherwise relating to information concerning Hazardous Materials is intentionally false, incomplete, or misleading in any material respect, the same shall be deemed a default by Tenant under this Lease. Upon Landlord's request, or in the event of any material change in Tenant's use of Hazardous Materials at the Premises, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an updated Environmental Questionnaire at least once a year. Landlords prior written consent shall be required to any Hazardous Materials use for the Premises not described on the initial Environmental Questionnaire, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If Landlord fails to respond to a request for consent within five (5) business days, Tenant may send a "reminder notice". If Landlord fails to respond to such request within three (3) business days after delivery of the "reminder notice", then Landlord shall be deemed to have consented to such request.

In addition, Tenant agrees that it: (i)�shall not cause or suffer to occur, the Release of any Hazardous Materials at, upon, under or within the Premises or any contiguous or adjacent premises; and (ii)�shall not engage in activities at the Premises that cause an unreasonable imposition of potential liability upon Tenant or Landlord or the creation of an environmental lien or use restriction upon the Premises. For purposes of this Lease, "Hazardous Materials" means all flammable explosives, petroleum and petroleum products, waste oil, radon, radioactive materials, toxic pollutants, asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), medical waste, chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity, pollutants, contaminants, hazardous wastes, toxic substances or related materials, including without limitation any chemical, element, compound, mixture, solution, substance, object, waste or any combination thereof, which is or may be hazardous to human health, safety or to the environment due to its radioactivity, ignitability, corrosiveness, reactivity, explosiveness, toxicity, carcinogenicity, infectiousness or other harmful or potentially harmful properties or effects, or defined as, regulated as or included in, the definition of hazardous substances, hazardous wastes, hazardous materials, or toxic substances under any Environmental Laws. For purposes of this Lease, "Release" or "Released" or "Releases" shall mean any release, deposit, discharge, emission, leaking, spilling, seeping, migrating, injecting, pumping, pouring, emptying, escaping, dumping, disposing, or other movement of Hazardous Materials into the environment.
5.4.1.3����Notices to Landlord. Unless Tenant is required by applicable laws to give earlier notice to Landlord, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing as soon as possible but in no event later than five (5)�days after (i)�the occurrence of any actual, alleged or threatened Release of any Hazardous Material in, on, under, from, about or in the vicinity of the Premises (whether past or present), regardless of the source or quantity of any such Release, or (ii)�Tenant becomes aware of any regulatory actions, inquiries, inspections, investigations, directives, or any cleanup, compliance, enforcement or abatement proceedings (including any threatened or contemplated investigations or proceedings) relating to or potentially affecting the Premises, or (iii)�Tenant becomes aware of any claims by any person or entity relating to any Hazardous Materials in, on, under, from, about or in the vicinity of the Premises, whether relating to damage, contribution, cost recovery, compensation, loss or injury. Collectively, the matters set forth in clauses�(i), (ii) and (iii) above are hereinafter referred to as Hazardous Materials Claims. Tenant shall promptly forward to Landlord copies of all orders, notices, permits, applications and other communications and reports in connection with any Hazardous Materials Claims. Additionally, each party shall promptly advise the other in writing of the advising party's discovery of any occurrence or condition on, in, under or about the Premises or Project that could subject Tenant or Landlord to any liability, or restrictions on ownership, occupancy, transferability or use of the Premises or Project under any "Environmental Laws," as that term is defined below. Tenant shall not enter into any legal proceeding or other action, settlement, consent decree or other compromise with respect to any Hazardous Materials Claims without first notifying Landlord of Tenants intention to do so and affording Landlord the opportunity to join and participate, as a party if Landlord so elects, in such proceedings and in no event shall Tenant enter into any agreements which are binding on Landlord or the Premises without Landlords prior written consent.

Notwithstanding the terms of Section�11.1 of this Lease, Landlord may elect not to rebuild and/or restore the Premises and/or Project, and instead terminate this Lease, by notifying Tenant in writing of such termination within sixty (60) days after the date of discovery of the damage, such notice to include a termination date giving Tenant sixty (60) days to vacate the Premises, but Landlord may so elect only if the Building shall be damaged by fire or other casualty or cause, and one or more of the following conditions is present: (i) in Landlord's reasonable judgment, repairs cannot reasonably be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of discovery of the damage (when such repairs are made without the payment of overtime or other premiums); (ii) the holder of any mortgage on the Building or Project or ground lessor with respect to the Building or Project shall require that the insurance proceeds or any portion thereof be used to retire the mortgage debt, or shall terminate the ground lease, as the case may be; (iii) at least Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) of damage is not fully covered by Landlord's insurance policies; or (v) the damage occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term; provided, however, that if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease pursuant to Landlord's termination right as provided above, and the repairs cannot, in the reasonable opinion of Landlord, be completed within one hundred eighty (180) days after being commenced, Tenant may elect, no earlier than sixty (60) days after the date of the damage and not later than ninety (90) days after the date of such damage, to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord effective as of the date specified in the notice, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date such notice is given by Tenant. In the event that the Pilot Plant remains operational, then, at Tenant's written request either Landlord's or Tenant's termination of the Lease, as applicable, shall apply only to the Building not containing the Pilot Plant, and the Lease shall continue with respect to the Pilot Plant. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.2, Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease under this Section 11.2 only if each of the following conditions is satisfied: (a) the damage to the Project by fire or other casualty was not caused by the gross negligence or intentional act of Tenant or its partners or subpartners and their respective officers, agents, servants, employees, and independent contractors; and (b) as a result of the damage, Tenant cannot reasonably conduct all of its business from the Premises. In addition, Tenant may terminate this Lease if the damage to the Premises occurs during the last twelve (12) months of the Lease Term, and, as a result of such damage, Tenant cannot reasonably conduct business from the Premises for a period of thirty (30) days or more.
11.3����Waiver of Statutory Provisions. The provisions of this Lease, including this Article 11, constitute an express agreement between Landlord and Tenant with respect to any and all damage to, or destruction of, all or any part of the Premises, the Building or the Project, and any statute or regulation of the State of California, including, without limitation, Sections 1932(2) and 1933(4) of the California Civil Code, with respect to any rights or obligations concerning damage or destruction in the absence of an express agreement between the parties, and any other statute or regulation, now or hereafter in effect, shall have no application to this Lease or any damage or destruction to all or any part of the Premises or the Project.
12.����NONWAIVER
No provision of this Lease shall be deemed waived by either party hereto unless expressly waived in a writing signed thereby. The waiver by either party hereto of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of same or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained. The subsequent acceptance of Rent hereunder by Landlord shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease, other than the failure of Tenant to pay the particular Rent so accepted, regardless of Landlord's knowledge of such preceding breach at the time of acceptance of such Rent. No acceptance of a lesser amount than the Rent herein stipulated shall be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to receive the full amount due, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or payment or any letter accompanying such check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover the full amount due. No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease shall in any way alter the length of the Lease Term or of Tenant's right of possession hereunder, or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend the Lease Term or affect any notice given Tenant prior to the receipt of such monies, it being agreed that after the service of notice or the commencement of a suit, or after final judgment for possession of the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any Rent due, and the payment of said Rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment.

If the whole or any part of the Premises or Project shall be taken by power of eminent domain or condemned by any competent authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose, or if any adjacent property or street shall be so taken or condemned, or reconfigured or vacated by such authority in such manner as to require the use, reconstruction or remodeling of any part of the Premises or Project, or if Landlord shall grant a deed or other instrument in lieu of such taking by eminent domain or condemnation, Landlord shall have the option to terminate this Lease effective as of the date possession is required to be surrendered to the authority. Tenant shall not because of such taking assert any claim against Landlord or the authority for any compensation because of such taking and Landlord shall be entitled to the entire award or payment in connection therewith, except that Tenant shall have the right to file any separate claim available to Tenant for any taking of Tenant's personal property and fixtures belonging to Tenant and removable by Tenant upon expiration of the Lease Term pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and for moving expenses, so long as such claims do not diminish the award available to Landlord, its ground lessor with respect to the Buildings or Project or its mortgagee, and such claim is payable separately to Tenant. All Rent shall be apportioned as of the date of such termination. If any part of the Premises shall be taken, and this Lease shall not be so terminated, the Rent shall be proportionately abated. Tenant hereby waives any and all rights it might otherwise have pursuant to Section�1265.130 of The California Code of Civil Procedure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 13, in the event of a temporary taking of all or any portion of the Premises for a period of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less, and provided that such temporary taking does not materially preclude or unreasonably diminish Tenant's ability to conduct business from the Premises, then this Lease shall not terminate but the Base Rent and the Additional Rent shall be abated for the period of such taking in proportion to the ratio that the amount of rentable square feet of the Premises taken bears to the total rentable square feet of the Premises. Landlord shall be entitled to receive the entire award made in connection with any such temporary taking, provided, however, that Tenant shall be entitled to a share of the award for any loss of fixtures and improvements and for moving and other reasonable expenses that do not otherwise reduce Landlord's recovery.
14.����ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
14.1����Transfers. Except as specifically permitted in Section 14.8, below, Tenant shall not, without the prior written consent of Landlord, assign, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, or permit any lien to attach to, or otherwise transfer, this Lease or any interest hereunder, permit any assignment, or other transfer of this Lease or any interest hereunder by operation of law, sublet the Premises or any part thereof, or enter into any license or concession agreements or otherwise permit the occupancy or use of the Premises or any part thereof by any persons other than Tenant and its employees and contractors (all of the foregoing are hereinafter sometimes referred to collectively as "Transfers" and any person to whom any Transfer is made or sought to be made is hereinafter sometimes referred to as a "Transferee"). If Tenant desires Landlord's consent to any Transfer, other than as specifically permitted in Section 14.8 below, Tenant shall notify Landlord in writing, which notice (the "Transfer Notice") shall include (i) the proposed effective date of the Transfer, which shall not be less than twenty (20) days nor more than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of delivery of the Transfer Notice, (ii) a description of the portion of the Premises to be transferred (the "Subject Space"), (iii) all of the terms of the proposed Transfer and the consideration therefor, including calculation of the "Transfer Premium", as that term is defined in Section�14.3 below, in connection with such Transfer, the name and address of the proposed Transferee, and a copy of all existing executed and/or proposed documentation pertaining to the proposed Transfer, and (iv) current financial statements of the proposed Transferee certified by an officer, partner or owner thereof, business credit references and history of the proposed Transferee and any other information reasonably required by Landlord which will enable Landlord to determine the financial responsibility, character, and reputation of the proposed Transferee, nature of such Transferee's business and proposed use of the Subject Space. Except as specifically permitted in Section 14.8, below, any Transfer made without Landlord's prior written consent shall, at Landlord's option, be null, void and of no effect, and shall, at Landlord's option, constitute a default by Tenant under this Lease. Whether or not Landlord consents to any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall pay Landlord's reasonable review and processing fees, as well as any reasonable professional fees (including, without limitation, attorneys', accountants', architects', engineers' and consultants' fees) incurred by Landlord (not to exceed $3,000 in the aggregate), within thirty (30) days after written request by Landlord (except in connection with transfers specifically permitted in Section 14.8, below).
14.2����Landlord's Consent. Landlord shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its consent to any proposed Transfer of the Subject Space to the Transferee on the terms specified in the Transfer Notice. Without

limitation as to other reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the parties hereby agree that it shall be reasonable under this Lease and under any applicable law for Landlord to withhold consent to any proposed Transfer where one or more of the following apply:
14.2.1����The Transferee is of a character or reputation or engaged in a business which is not consistent with the quality of the Building or the Project;
14.2.2����The Transferee is either a governmental agency or instrumentality thereof;
14.2.3����The Transferee is not a party of reasonable financial worth and/or financial stability in light of the responsibilities to be undertaken in connection with the Transfer on the date consent is requested;
14.2.4����The proposed Transfer would cause a violation of another lease for space in the Project, or would give an occupant of the Project a right to cancel its lease; or
14.2.5����Either the proposed Transferee, or any person or entity which directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the proposed Transferee, is negotiating with Landlord to lease space in the Project, and Landlord has comparable space available for lease at the time.
If Landlord consents to any Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Section�14.2 (and does not exercise any recapture rights Landlord may have under Section�14.4 of this Lease), Tenant may within six (6) months after Landlord's consent, but not later than the expiration of said six-month period, enter into such Transfer of the Premises or portion thereof, upon substantially the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Transfer Notice furnished by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to Section�14.1 of this Lease, provided that if there are any changes in the terms and conditions from those specified in the Transfer Notice (i) such that Landlord would initially have been entitled to refuse its consent to such Transfer under this Section�14.2, Tenant shall again submit the Transfer to Landlord for its approval and other action under this Article 14 (including Landlord's right of recapture, if any, under Section�14.4 of this Lease). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Lease, if Tenant or any proposed Transferee claims that Landlord has unreasonably withheld or delayed its consent under Section�14.2 or otherwise has breached or acted unreasonably under this Article 14, their sole remedies shall be a suit for contract damages (other than damages for injury to, or interference with, Tenant's business including, without limitation, loss of profits, however occurring) or declaratory judgment and an injunction for the relief sought, and Tenant hereby waives all other remedies, including, without limitation, any right at law or equity to terminate this Lease, on its own behalf and, to the extent permitted under all applicable laws, on behalf of the proposed Transferee.
14.3����Transfer Premium. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, as a condition thereto which the parties hereby agree is reasonable, Tenant shall pay to Landlord fifty percent (50%) of any "Transfer Premium," as that term is defined in this Section�14.3, received by Tenant from such Transferee. "Transfer Premium" shall mean all rent, additional rent or other consideration payable by such Transferee in connection with the Transfer in excess of the Rent and Additional Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease during the term of the Transfer on a per rentable square foot basis if less than all of the Premises is transferred, after deducting the reasonable expenses incurred by Tenant for (i)�any changes, alterations and improvements to the Premises in connection with the Transfer, (ii)�any free base rent reasonably provided to the Transferee in connection with the Transfer (provided that such free rent shall be deducted only to the extent the same is included in the calculation of total consideration payable by such Transferee), and (iii)�any brokerage commissions in connection with the Transfer (iv) legal fees reasonably incurred in connection with the Transfer, and (v) and fees paid to Landlord in connection with Tenant's request for consent (collectively, "Tenant's Subleasing Costs"). "Transfer Premium" shall also include, but not be limited to, key money, bonus money or other cash consideration paid by Transferee to Tenant in connection with such Transfer, and any payment in excess of fair market value for services rendered by Tenant to Transferee or for assets, fixtures, inventory, equipment, or furniture transferred by Tenant to Transferee in connection with such Transfer. The determination of the amount of Landlord's applicable share of the Transfer Premium shall be made on a monthly basis as rent or other consideration is received by Tenant under the Transfer.

14.4����Landlord's Option as to Subject Space. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 14, in the event Tenant contemplates a Transfer which, together with all prior Transfers then remaining in effect, would cause seventy-five percent (75%) or more of the Premises to be Transferred for seventy-five percent (75%) or more of the remaining Lease Term (assuming all sublease renewal or extension rights are exercised), Tenant shall give Landlord notice (the "Intention to Transfer Notice") of such contemplated Transfer (whether or not the contemplated Transferee or the terms of such contemplated Transfer have been determined). The Intention to Transfer Notice shall specify the portion of and amount of rentable square feet of the Premises which Tenant intends to Transfer (the "Contemplated Transfer Space"), the contemplated date of commencement of the Contemplated Transfer (the "Contemplated Effective Date"), and the contemplated length of the term of such contemplated Transfer, and shall specify that such Intention to Transfer Notice is delivered to Landlord pursuant to this Section�14.4 in order to allow Landlord to elect to recapture the Contemplated Transfer Space. Thereafter, Landlord shall have the option, by giving written notice to Tenant within twenty (20) days after receipt of any Intention to Transfer Notice, to recapture the Contemplated Transfer Space, unless Tenant retracts, in a written notice to Landlord, its Intention to Transfer Notice within twenty (20) days after the delivery of such Intention to Transfer Notice. Such recapture shall cancel and terminate this Lease with respect to such Contemplated Transfer Space as of the Contemplated Effective Date. In the event of a recapture by Landlord, if this Lease shall be canceled with respect to less than the entire Premises, the Rent reserved herein shall be prorated on the basis of the number of rentable square feet retained by Tenant in proportion to the number of rentable square feet contained in the Premises, and this Lease as so amended shall continue thereafter in full force and effect, and upon request of either party, the parties shall execute written confirmation of the same.
14.5����Effect of Transfer. If Landlord consents to a Transfer, (i) the terms and conditions of this Lease shall in no way be deemed to have been waived or modified, (ii) such consent shall not be deemed consent to any further Transfer by either Tenant or a Transferee, (iii) Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, promptly after execution, an original executed copy of all documentation pertaining to the Transfer in form reasonably acceptable to Landlord, (iv) Tenant shall furnish upon Landlord's request a complete statement, certified by an independent certified public accountant, or Tenant's chief financial officer, setting forth in detail the computation of any Transfer Premium Tenant has derived and shall derive from such Transfer, and (v) no Transfer relating to this Lease or agreement entered into with respect thereto, whether with or without Landlord's consent, shall relieve Tenant or any guarantor of the Lease from any liability under this Lease, including, without limitation, in connection with the Subject Space. Landlord or its authorized representatives shall have the right at all reasonable times to audit the books, records and papers of Tenant relating to any Transfer, and shall have the right to make copies thereof. If the Transfer Premium respecting any Transfer shall be found understated, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after demand, pay the deficiency, and if understated by more than three percent (3%), Tenant shall pay Landlord's costs of such audit.
14.6����Intentionally Omitted.
14.7����Occurrence of Default. Any Transfer hereunder shall be subordinate and subject to the provisions of this Lease, and if this Lease shall be terminated during the term of any Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to: (i) treat such Transfer as cancelled and repossess the Subject Space by any lawful means, or (ii) require that such Transferee attorn to and recognize Landlord as its landlord under any such Transfer. If Tenant shall be in default under this Lease, Landlord is hereby irrevocably authorized, as Tenant's agent and attorney-in-fact, to direct any Transferee to make all payments under or in connection with the Transfer directly to Landlord (which Landlord shall apply towards Tenant's obligations under this Lease) until such default is cured. Such Transferee shall rely on any representation by Landlord that Tenant is in default hereunder, without any need for confirmation thereof by Tenant. Upon any assignment, the assignee shall assume in writing all obligations and covenants of Tenant thereafter to be performed or observed under this Lease. No collection or acceptance of rent by Landlord from any Transferee shall be deemed a waiver of any provision of this Article 14 or the approval of any Transferee or a release of Tenant from any obligation under this Lease, whether theretofore or thereafter accruing. In no event shall Landlord's enforcement of any provision of this Lease against any Transferee be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to enforce any term of this Lease against Tenant or any other person. If Tenant's obligations hereunder have been guaranteed, Landlord's consent to any Transfer shall not be effective unless the guarantor also consents to such Transfer.
14.8����Non-Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article�14, (i) an assignment or subletting of all or a portion of the Premises to an affiliate of Tenant (an entity which is controlled by,

controls, or is under common control with, Tenant), (ii)�an assignment of the Premises to an entity which acquires all or substantially all of the assets or interests (partnership, stock or other) of Tenant, (iii)�an assignment of the Premises to an entity which is the resulting entity of a merger or consolidation of Tenant, or (iv) a sale of corporate shares of capital stock in Tenant in connection with either a bonafide financing for the benefit of the Tenant or an initial public offering of Tenant's stock on a nationally-recognized stock exchange (collectively, a "Permitted Transferee"), shall not be deemed a Transfer under this Article 14, provided that (A) following execution Tenant notifies Landlord of any such assignment or sublease and promptly supplies Landlord with any documents or information requested by Landlord regarding such assignment or sublease or such affiliate, (B) such assignment or sublease is not a subterfuge by Tenant to avoid its obligations under this Lease, (C) such Permitted Transferee shall be of a character and reputation consistent with the quality of the Building, and (D)�such Permitted Transferee shall have a tangible net worth (not including goodwill as an asset) computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("Net Worth") at least equal to the Net Worth of Tenant on the day immediately preceding the effective date of such assignment or sublease. An assignee of Tenant's entire interest that is also a Permitted Transferee may also be known as a "Permitted Assignee". "Control," as used in this Section�14.8, shall mean the ownership, directly or indirectly, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting securities of, or possession of the right to vote, in the ordinary direction of its affairs, of at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting interest in, any person or entity. No such permitted assignment or subletting shall serve to release Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, no consent of Landlord shall be required in connection with (i)�any financing for the benefit of Tenant which does not encumber the leasehold, (ii)�Tenant's permitting the employees or agents of any business or entity which Tenant controls or in which Tenant holds at least a forty-nine percent (49%) interest, through contract or otherwise, to occupy a portion (not to exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises in the aggregate) of the Premises pursuant to a services agreement between Tenant and such entity.
15.
SURRENDER OF PREMISES; OWNERSHIP AND REMOVAL OF TRADE FIXTURES
15.1����Surrender of Premises. No act or thing done by Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord during the Lease Term shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance by Landlord of a surrender of the Premises unless such intent is specifically acknowledged in writing by Landlord. The delivery of keys to the Premises to Landlord or any agent or employee of Landlord shall not constitute a surrender of the Premises or effect a termination of this Lease, whether or not the keys are thereafter retained by Landlord, and notwithstanding such delivery Tenant shall be entitled to the return of such keys at any reasonable time upon request until this Lease shall have been properly terminated. The voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Tenant, whether accepted by Landlord or not, or a mutual termination hereof, shall not work a merger, and at the option of Landlord shall operate as an assignment to Landlord of all subleases or subtenancies affecting the Premises or terminate any or all such sublessees or subtenancies.
15.2����Removal of Tenant Property by Tenant. Upon the expiration of the Lease Term, or upon any earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall, subject to the provisions of this Article 15, quit and surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord in as good order and condition as when Tenant took possession and as thereafter improved by Landlord and/or Tenant, reasonable wear and tear, casualty and repairs which are specifically made the responsibility of Landlord hereunder excepted. Upon such expiration or termination, Tenant shall, without expense to Landlord, remove or cause to be removed from the Premises all debris and rubbish, and such items of furniture, equipment, free-standing cabinet work, movable partitions and other articles of personal property owned by Tenant or installed or placed by Tenant at its expense in the Premises, and such similar articles of any other persons claiming under Tenant, as Landlord may, in its reasonable discretion, require to be removed, and Tenant shall repair at its own expense all damage to the Premises resulting from such removal.
16.����HOLDING OVER
If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term or earlier termination thereof, with the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be from month-to-month only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term. If Tenant holds over after the expiration of the Lease Term of earlier termination thereof, without the express or implied consent of Landlord, such tenancy shall be deemed to be a tenancy by sufferance only, and shall not constitute a renewal hereof or an extension for any further term, and Base Rent shall be payable at a monthly rate equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Base Rent applicable during the last rental

[Solazyme, Inc.]




period of the Lease Term for the initial one (1) month of hold-over and thereafter at a monthly rate equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Base Rent applicable during the last rental period of the Lease Term under this Lease. Such month-to-month tenancy or tenancy by sufferance, as the case may be, shall be subject to every other applicable term, covenant and agreement contained herein. Nothing contained in this Article 16 shall be construed as consent by Landlord to any holding over by Tenant, and Landlord expressly reserves the right to require Tenant to surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord as provided in this Lease upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. The provisions of this Article 16 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law. If Tenant fails to surrender the Premises upon the termination or expiration of this Lease, in addition to any other liabilities to Landlord accruing therefrom, Tenant shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from all loss, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) and liability resulting from such failure, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any claims made by any succeeding tenant founded upon such failure to surrender and any lost profits to Landlord resulting therefrom.
17.����ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES
Within ten (10) business days following a request in writing by Landlord, Tenant shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord an estoppel certificate, which, as submitted by Landlord, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit�E, attached hereto (or such other form as may be required by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Project, or any portion thereof), indicating therein any exceptions thereto that may exist at that time, and shall also contain any other information reasonably requested by Landlord or Landlord's mortgagee or prospective mortgagee. Any such certificate may be relied upon by any prospective mortgagee or purchaser of all or any portion of the Project. Tenant shall execute and deliver whatever other instruments may be reasonably required for such purposes. At any time during the Lease Term, Landlord may require Tenant to provide Landlord with a current financial statement and financial statements of the two (2) years prior to the current financial statement year. Such statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, if such is the normal practice of Tenant, shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant. Failure of Tenant to timely execute, acknowledge and deliver such estoppel certificate or other instruments shall constitute an acceptance of the Premises and an acknowledgment by Tenant that statements included in the estoppel certificate are true and correct, without exception.
18.����SUBORDINATION
This Lease shall be subject and subordinate to all present and future ground or underlying leases of the Building or Project and to the lien of any mortgage, trust deed or other encumbrances now or hereafter in force against the Building or Project or any part thereof, if any, and to all renewals, extensions, modifications, consolidations and replacements thereof, and to all advances made or hereafter to be made upon the security of such mortgages or trust deeds, unless the holders of such mortgages, trust deeds or other encumbrances, or the lessors under such ground lease or underlying leases, require in writing that this Lease be superior thereto. Tenant covenants and agrees in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any such mortgage or deed in lieu thereof (or if any ground lease is terminated), to attorn, without any deductions or set-offs whatsoever, to the lienholder or purchaser or any successors thereto upon any such foreclosure sale or deed in lieu thereof (or to the ground lessor), if so requested to do so by such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor, and to recognize such purchaser or lienholder or ground lessor as the lessor under this Lease, provided such lienholder or purchaser or ground lessor shall agree to accept this Lease and not disturb Tenant's occupancy, so long as Tenant timely pays the rent and observes and performs the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease to be observed and performed by Tenant. Landlords delivery to Tenant of commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement(s) in favor of Tenant from any ground lessors, mortgage holders or lien holders of Landlord who come into existence following the date hereof but prior to the expiration of the Lease Term shall be in consideration of, and a condition precedent to, Tenants agreement to subordinate this Lease to any such ground lease, mortgage or lien. Landlord's interest herein may be assigned as security at any time to any lienholder. Tenant shall, within ten (10) business days of request by Landlord, execute such further instruments or assurances as Landlord may reasonably deem necessary to evidence or confirm the subordination or superiority of this Lease to any such mortgages, trust deeds, ground leases or underlying leases. Tenant waives the provisions of any current or future statute, rule or law which may give or purport to give Tenant any right or election to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease and the obligations of the Tenant hereunder in the event of any foreclosure proceeding or sale. Landlord represents that, as of the date of this Lease, there are no ground or underlying leases or liens of any mortgage or trust deed encumbering the

19.����DEFAULTS; REMEDIES
19.1����Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default of this Lease by Tenant:

19.1.3����Abandonment of the Premises by Tenant without making commercially reasonable provision for its security; or
19.1.4����The failure by Tenant to observe or perform according to the provisions of Articles 5, 14, 17 or 18 of this Lease where such failure continues for more than two (2) business days after notice from Landlord.

19.2����Remedies Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of any event of default by Tenant, Landlord shall have, in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity (all of which remedies shall be distinct, separate and cumulative), the option to pursue any one or more of the following remedies, each and all of which shall be cumulative and nonexclusive, without any notice or demand whatsoever.
19.2.1����Terminate this Lease, in which event Tenant shall immediately surrender the Premises to Landlord, and if Tenant fails to do so, Landlord may, without prejudice to any other remedy which it may have for possession or arrearages in rent, enter upon and take possession of the Premises and expel or remove Tenant and any other person who may be occupying the Premises or any part thereof, without being liable for prosecution or any claim or damages therefor; and Landlord may recover from Tenant the following:
(i)����The worth at the time of award of the unpaid rent which has been earned at the time of such termination; plus
(ii)����The worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

(iv)����Any other amount necessary to compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, specifically including but not limited to, brokerage commissions and advertising expenses incurred, expenses of remodeling the Premises or any portion thereof

As used in Sections 19.2.1(i) and (ii), above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by allowing interest at the rate set forth in Article 25 of this Lease, but in no case greater than the maximum amount of such interest permitted by law. As used in Section 19.2.1(iii) above, the "worth at the time of award" shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco at the time of award plus one percent (1%).
19.2.2����Landlord shall have the remedy described in California Civil Code Section�1951.4 (lessor may continue lease in effect after lessee's breach and abandonment and recover rent as it becomes due, if lessee has the right to sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations). Accordingly, if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, Landlord may, from time to time, without terminating this Lease, enforce all of its rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover all rent as it becomes due.
19.2.3����Landlord shall at all times have the rights and remedies (which shall be cumulative with each other and cumulative and in addition to those rights and remedies available under Sections 19.2.1 and 19.2.2, above, or any law or other provision of this Lease), without prior demand or notice except as required by applicable law, to seek any declaratory, injunctive or other equitable relief, and specifically enforce this Lease, or restrain or enjoin a violation or breach of any provision hereof.
19.3����Subleases of Tenant. Whether or not Landlord elects to terminate this Lease on account of any default by Tenant, as set forth in this Article 19, Landlord shall have the right to terminate any and all subleases, licenses, concessions or other consensual arrangements for possession entered into by Tenant and affecting the Premises or may, in Landlord's sole discretion, succeed to Tenant's interest in such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements. In the event of Landlord's election to succeed to Tenant's interest in any such subleases, licenses, concessions or arrangements, Tenant shall, as of the date of notice by Landlord of such election, have no further right to or interest in the rent or other consideration receivable thereunder.
19.4����Efforts to Relet. No re-entry or repossession, repairs, maintenance, changes, alterations and additions, reletting, appointment of a receiver to protect Landlord's interests hereunder, or any other action or omission by Landlord shall be construed as an election by Landlord to terminate this Lease or Tenant's right to possession, or to accept a surrender of the Premises, nor shall same operate to release Tenant in whole or in part from any of Tenant's obligations hereunder, unless express written notice of such intention is sent by Landlord to Tenant. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives any right otherwise available under any law to redeem or reinstate this Lease.
19.5����Landlord Default.
19.5.1����General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, Landlord shall not be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by Landlord pursuant to this Lease unless Landlord fails to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice from Tenant specifying in detail Landlord's failure to perform; provided, however, if the nature of Landlord's obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance, then Landlord shall not be in default under this Lease if it shall commence such performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently pursue the same to completion. Upon any such default by Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease to the contrary, exercise any of its rights provided at law or in equity.
19.5.2����Abatement of Rent. In the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises or any portion thereof, as a result of (i)�any repair, maintenance or alteration performed by Landlord, or which Landlord failed to perform, after the Lease Commencement Date and required by this Lease, which substantially

interferes with Tenant's use of the Premises, or (ii)�any failure to provide services, utilities or access to the Premises as required by this Lease (either such set of circumstances as set forth in items (i)�or (ii), above, to be known as an "Abatement Event"), then Tenant shall give Landlord notice of such Abatement Event, and if such Abatement Event continues for five (5) consecutive business days after Landlord's receipt of any such notice (the "Eligibility Period") and either (A)�Landlord does not diligently commence and pursue to completion the remedy of such Abatement Event or (B)�Landlord receives proceeds from its rental interruption insurance which covers such Abatement Event, then the Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses shall be abated or reduced, as the case may be, after expiration of the Eligibility Period for such time that Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use for the normal conduct of Tenant's business, the Premises or a portion thereof, in the proportion that the rentable area of the portion of the Premises that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, bears to the total rentable area of the Premises; provided, however, in the event that Tenant is prevented from using, and does not use, a portion of the Premises for a period of time in excess of the Eligibility Period and the remaining portion of the Premises is not sufficient to allow Tenant to effectively conduct its business therein, and if Tenant does not conduct its business from such remaining portion, then for such time after expiration of the Eligibility Period during which Tenant is so prevented from effectively conducting its business therein, the Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses for the entire Premises shall be abated for such time as Tenant continues to be so prevented from using, and does not use, the Premises. If, however, Tenant reoccupies any portion of the Premises during such period, the Rent allocable to such reoccupied portion, based on the proportion that the rentable area of such reoccupied portion of the Premises bears to the total rentable area of the Premises, shall be payable by Tenant from the date Tenant reoccupies such portion of the Premises. To the extent an Abatement Event is caused by an event covered by Articles�11 or 13 of this Lease, then Tenant's right to abate rent shall be governed by the terms of such Article�11 or 13, as applicable, and the Eligibility Period shall not be applicable thereto. Such right to abate Base Rent and Tenant's Share of Direct Expenses shall be Tenant's sole and exclusive remedy for rent abatement at law or in equity for an Abatement Event. Except as provided in this Section�19.5.2, nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to mean that Tenant is excused from paying Rent due hereunder.
20.����COVENANT OF QUIET ENJOYMENT
Landlord covenants that Tenant, on paying the Rent, charges for services and other payments herein reserved and on keeping, observing and performing all the other terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements herein contained on the part of Tenant to be kept, observed and performed, shall, during the Lease Term, peaceably and quietly have, hold and enjoy the Premises subject to the terms, covenants, conditions, provisions and agreements hereof without interference by any persons lawfully claiming by or through Landlord. The foregoing covenant is in lieu of any other covenant express or implied.
21.����LETTER OF CREDIT
21.1����Delivery of Letter of Credit. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, concurrently with Tenant's execution of this Lease, an unconditional, clean, irrevocable letter of credit (the "L-C") in the amount set forth in Section 9 of the Summary (the "L-C Amount"), which L-C shall be issued by Silicon Valley Bank, or other money-center, solvent and nationally recognized bank (a bank which accepts deposits, maintains accounts, has a local San Francisco Bay Area office which will negotiate a letter of credit, and whose deposits are insured by the FDIC) reasonably acceptable to Landlord (such approved, issuing bank being referred to herein as the "Bank"), which Bank must have a rating from Standard and Poors Corporation of A- or better (or any equivalent rating thereto from any successor or substitute rating service selected by Lessor) and a letter of credit issuer rating from Moodys Investor Service of A3 or better (or any equivalent rating thereto from any successor rating agency thereto) (collectively, the Banks Credit Rating Threshold), and which L C shall be in the form of Exhibit F, attached hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord hereby approves Silicon Valley Bank as the Bank. Tenant shall pay all expenses, points and/or fees incurred by Tenant in obtaining the L-C. The L-C shall (i) be "callable" at sight, irrevocable and unconditional, (ii) be maintained in effect, whether through renewal or extension, for the period commencing on the date of this Lease and continuing until the date (the "L C Expiration Date") that is no less than sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Lease Term as the same may be extended, and Tenant shall deliver a new L C or certificate of renewal or extension to Landlord at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the L-C then held by Landlord, without any action whatsoever on the part of Landlord, (iii) be fully assignable by Landlord, its successors and assigns, (iv) permit partial draws and multiple presentations and drawings, and (v) be otherwise subject to the International Standby Practices-ISP 98, International Chamber of

Commerce Publication #590. Landlord, or its then managing agent, shall have the right to draw down an amount up to the face amount of the L-C if any of the following shall have occurred or be applicable: (A) such amount is due to Landlord under the terms and conditions of this Lease, and has not been paid within applicable notice and cure periods, or (B) Tenant has filed a voluntary petition under the U. S. Bankruptcy Code or any state bankruptcy code (collectively, "Bankruptcy Code"), or (C) an involuntary petition has been filed against Tenant under the Bankruptcy Code that is not dismissed within thirty (30) days, or (D) the Bank has notified Landlord that the L-C will not be renewed or extended through the L-C Expiration Date, and Tenant has not provided a replacement L-C that satisfies the requirements of this Lease at least thirty (30) days prior to such expiration, or (E) Tenant is placed into receivership or conservatorship, or becomes subject to similar proceedings under Federal or State law, or (F) Tenant executes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (G) if (1) any of the Bank's (other than Silicon Valley Bank) Fitch Ratings (or other comparable ratings to the extent the Fitch Ratings are no longer available) have been reduced below the Bank's Credit Rating Threshold, or (2) there is otherwise a material adverse change in the financial condition of the Bank, and Tenant has failed to provide Landlord with a replacement letter of credit, conforming in all respects to the requirements of this Article 21 (including, but not limited to, the requirements placed on the issuing Bank more particularly set forth in this Section 21.1 above), in the amount of the applicable L-C Amount, within ten (10) days following Landlords written demand therefor (with no other notice or cure or grace period being applicable thereto, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary) (each of the foregoing being an "L-C Draw Event"). The L-C shall be honored by the Bank regardless of whether Tenant disputes Landlord's right to draw upon the L-C. In addition, in the event the Bank is placed into receivership or conservatorship by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any successor or similar entity, then, effective as of the date such receivership or conservatorship occurs, said L-C shall be deemed to fail to meet the requirements of this Article 21, and, within ten (10) days following Landlord's notice to Tenant of such receivership or conservatorship (the "L-C FDIC Replacement Notice"), Tenant shall replace such L-C with a substitute letter of credit from a different issuer (which issuer shall meet or exceed the Bank's Credit Rating Threshold and shall otherwise be acceptable to Landlord in its reasonable discretion) and that complies in all respects with the requirements of this Article 21. If Tenant fails to replace such L-C with such conforming, substitute letter of credit pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section 21.1, then, notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord shall have the right to declare Tenant in default of this Lease for which there shall be no notice or grace or cure periods being applicable thereto (other than the aforesaid ten (10) day period). Tenant shall be responsible for the payment of any and all Tenant's and Bank's costs incurred with the review of any replacement L-C, which replacement is required pursuant to this Section or is otherwise requested by Tenant.
21.2����Application of L-C. Tenant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Landlord is entering into this Lease in material reliance upon the ability of Landlord to draw upon the L-C upon the occurrence of any L-C Draw Event. In the event of any L-C Draw Event, Landlord may, but without obligation to do so, and without notice to Tenant, draw upon the L-C, in part or in whole, in the amount necessary to cure any such L-C Draw Event and/or to compensate Landlord for any and all damages of any kind or nature sustained or which Landlord reasonably estimates that it will sustain resulting from Tenant's breach or default of the Lease or other L-C Draw Event and/or to compensate Landlord for any and all damages arising out of, or incurred in connection with, the termination of this Lease, including, without limitation, those specifically identified in Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code. The use, application or retention of the L-C, or any portion thereof, by Landlord shall not prevent Landlord from exercising any other right or remedy provided by this Lease or by any applicable law, it being intended that Landlord shall not first be required to proceed against the L-C, and such L-C shall not operate as a limitation on any recovery to which Landlord may otherwise be entitled. Tenant agrees not to interfere in any way with payment to Landlord of the proceeds of the L-C, either prior to or following a "draw" by Landlord of any portion of the L-C, regardless of whether any dispute exists between Tenant and Landlord as to Landlord's right to draw upon the L-C. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the L-C conditional to justify the issuer of the L-C in failing to honor a drawing upon such L-C in a timely manner. Tenant agrees and acknowledges that (i) the L-C constitutes a separate and independent contract between Landlord and the Bank, (ii) Tenant is not a third party beneficiary of such contract, (iii) Tenant has no property interest whatsoever in the L-C or the proceeds thereof, and (iv) in the event Tenant becomes a debtor under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code, Tenant is placed into receivership or conservatorship, and/or there is an event of a receivership, conservatorship or a bankruptcy filing by, or on behalf of, Tenant, neither Tenant, any trustee, nor Tenant's bankruptcy estate shall have any right to restrict or limit Landlord's claim and/or rights to the L-C and/or the proceeds thereof by application of Section 502(b)(6) of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. In the event of an assignment by Tenant of its interest in this Lease (and irrespective of whether Landlord's consent is required for such assignment), the

acceptance of any replacement or substitute L-C by Landlord from the assignee shall be subject to Landlord's prior written approval, in Landlord's reasonable discretion, and the actual and reasonable attorney's fees incurred by Landlord in connection with such determination shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days of billing.
21.3����L-C Amount; Maintenance of L-C by Tenant. If, as a result of any drawing by Landlord of all or any portion of the L-C, the amount of the L-C shall be less than the L-C Amount, Tenant shall, within five (5) days thereafter, provide Landlord with additional letter(s) of credit in an amount equal to the deficiency, and any such additional letter(s) of credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Article 21. Tenant further covenants and warrants that it will neither assign nor encumber the L-C or any part thereof and that neither Landlord nor its successors or assigns will be bound by any such assignment, encumbrance, attempted assignment or attempted encumbrance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the L-C expires earlier than the L-C Expiration Date, Landlord will accept a renewal thereof (such renewal letter of credit to be in effect and delivered to Landlord, as applicable, not later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the L-C), which shall be irrevocable and automatically renewable as above provided through the L-C Expiration Date upon the same terms as the expiring L-C or such other terms as may be acceptable to Landlord in its sole discretion. However, if the L-C is not timely renewed, or if Tenant fails to maintain the L-C in the amount and in accordance with the terms set forth in this Article 21, Landlord shall have the right to either present the L-C to the Bank in accordance with the terms of this Article 21, and the proceeds of the L-C may be applied by Landlord against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that is not paid when due and/or to pay for all losses and damages that Landlord has suffered or that Landlord reasonably estimates that it will suffer as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease. In the event Landlord elects to exercise its rights under the foregoing, (I) any unused proceeds shall constitute the property of Landlord (and not Tenants property or, in the event of a receivership, conservatorship, or a bankruptcy filing by Tenant, property of such receivership, conservatorship or Tenants bankruptcy estate) and need not be segregated from Landlords other assets, and (II) Landlord agrees to pay to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the L-C Expiration Date the amount of any proceeds of the L-C received by Landlord and not applied against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that was not paid when due or used to pay for any losses and/or damages suffered by Landlord (or reasonably estimated by Landlord that it will suffer) as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease; provided, however, that if prior to the L-C Expiration Date a voluntary petition is filed by Tenant, or an involuntary petition is filed against Tenant by any of Tenants creditors, under the Bankruptcy Code, then Landlord shall not be obligated to make such payment in the amount of the unused L-C proceeds until either all preference issues relating to payments under this Lease have been resolved in such bankruptcy or reorganization case or such bankruptcy or reorganization case has been dismissed.


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if Landlord draws on the L-C due to Tenant's violation of this Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods, such draw shall be in the amount required to cure such default. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, if Landlord draws on the L-C due to Tenant's failure to timely renew or provide a replacement L-C, such failure shall not be considered a default under this Lease and Landlord shall return such cash proceeds upon Tenant's presentation of a replacement L-C that satisfies the requirements of this Lease, subject to reasonable satisfaction of any preference risk to Landlord.
21.4����Transfer and Encumbrance. The L-C shall also provide that Landlord may, at any time and without notice to Tenant and without first obtaining Tenant's consent thereto, transfer (one or more times) all or any portion of its interest in and to the L-C to another party, person or entity, if such transfer is from or as a part of the assignment by Landlord of its rights and interests in and to this Lease. In the event of a transfer of Landlord's interest in under this Lease, Landlord shall transfer the L-C, in whole or in part, to the transferee and thereupon Landlord shall, without any further agreement between the parties, be released by Tenant from all liability therefor, and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment of the whole of said L-C to a new landlord. In connection with any such transfer of the L-C by Landlord, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, execute and submit to the Bank such applications, documents and instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such transfer and, Tenant shall be responsible for paying the Bank's transfer and processing fees in connection therewith.

21.5����L-C Not a Security Deposit. Landlord and Tenant (1) acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the L-C or any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof be deemed to be or treated as a security deposit under any law applicable to security deposits in the commercial context, including, but not limited to, Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, as such Section now exists or as it may be hereafter amended or succeeded (the Security Deposit Laws), (2) acknowledge and agree that the L-C (including any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof) is not intended to serve as a security deposit, and the Security Deposit Laws shall have no applicability or relevancy thereto, and (c) waive any and all rights, duties and obligations that any such party may now, or in the future will, have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives and relinquishes the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and any successor statue, and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in effect, which (x) establish the time frame by which a landlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (y) provide that a landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by a tenant or to clean the premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified in this Article 21 and/or those sums reasonably necessary to (a) compensate Landlord for any loss or damage caused by Tenant's breach of this Lease, including any damages Landlord suffers following termination of this Lease, and/or (b) compensate Landlord for any and all damages arising out of, or incurred in connection with, the termination of this Lease, including, without limitation, those specifically identified in Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code.
21.6����Non-Interference By Tenant. Tenant agrees not to interfere in any way with any payment to Landlord of the proceeds of the L-C, either prior to or following a "draw" by Landlord of all or any portion of the L-C, regardless of whether any dispute exists between Tenant and Landlord as to Landlord's right to draw down all or any portion of the L-C. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the L-C conditional and thereby afford the Bank a justification for failing to honor a drawing upon such L-C in a timely manner. Tenant's sole remedy in connection with the improper presentment or payment of sight drafts drawn under any L-C shall be the right to obtain from Landlord a refund of the amount of any sight draft(s) that were improperly presented or the proceeds of which were misapplied and reasonable actual out-of-pocket attorneys' fees, provided that at the time of such refund, Tenant increases the amount of such L-C to the amount (if any) then required under the applicable provisions of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the presentment of sight drafts drawn under any L-C, or the Bank's payment of sight drafts drawn under such L-C, could not under any circumstances cause Tenant injury that could not be remedied by an award of money damages, and that the recovery of money damages would be an adequate remedy therefor. In the event Tenant shall be entitled to a refund as aforesaid and Landlord shall fail to make such payment within ten (10) business days after demand, Tenant shall have the right to deduct the amount thereof from the next installment(s) of Base Rent.
22.����SUBSTITUTION OF OTHER PREMISES
Intentionally Omitted.
23.����SIGNS
23.1����Exterior Signage. Subject to Landlord's prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and provided all signs are in keeping with the quality, design and style of the Building and Project, Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, may install (i)�identification signage on the existing monument sign located on the exterior of the Building, (ii)�at the entrance to the Building, and (iii)�on the exterior of the Building (collectively, "Tenant Signage"); provided, however, in no event shall Tenant's Signage include an "Objectionable Name," as that term is defined in Section�23.3, of this Lease. In addition, Tenant may install internal directional and lobby identification and directions within the Premises. All such signage shall be subject to Tenant's obtaining all required governmental approvals. All permitted signs shall be maintained by Tenant at its expense in a first-class and safe condition and appearance. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, Tenant shall remove all of the Tenant Signage at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and shall restore the Building to the condition existing prior to the installation of the Tenant Signage. The graphics, materials, color, design, lettering, lighting, size, illumination, specifications and exact location of Tenant's Signage (collectively, the "Sign Specifications") shall be subject to the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and shall be consistent and compatible with the quality and nature of the Project. Tenant hereby acknowledges that, notwithstanding Landlord's approval of Tenant's Signage, Landlord has made no representation or warranty to Tenant

[Solazyme, Inc.]




with respect to the probability of obtaining all necessary governmental approvals and permits for Tenant's Signage. In the event Tenant does not receive the necessary governmental approvals and permits for Tenant's Signage, Tenant's and Landlord's rights and obligations under the remaining provisions of this Lease shall be unaffected. Tenant's Signage shall not include a name or logo which relates to an entity which is of a character or reputation, or is associated with a political faction or orientation, which is inconsistent with the quality of the Project, or which would otherwise reasonably offend a landlord of the Comparable Buildings (an "Objectionable Name"). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Landlord hereby confirms its consent to Tenant's signage which is in place as of the date of this Lease, which signage Tenant shall remove at Tenant's sole cost and expense at the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease, and Tenant shall at such time restore the Building to the condition existing prior to the installation of such signage.
23.2����Prohibited Signage and Other Items. Any signs, notices, logos, pictures, names or advertisements which are installed and that have not been separately approved by Landlord may be removed without notice by Landlord at the sole expense of Tenant. Tenant may not install any signs on the exterior or roof of the Project or the Common Areas. Any signs, window coverings, or blinds (even if the same are located behind the Landlord-approved window coverings for the Building), or other items visible from the exterior of the Premises or Building, shall be subject to the prior approval of Landlord, in its sole discretion, except as permitted by Section�23.2.
24.����COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
Tenant shall not do anything or suffer anything to be done in or about the Premises or the Project which will in any way conflict with any law, statute, ordinance or other governmental rule, regulation or requirement now in force or which may hereafter be enacted or promulgated (collectively, "Applicable Laws"). Following the Lease Commencement Date, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, Tenant shall promptly comply with all such Applicable Laws which relate to (i)�Tenant's use of the Premises, (ii)�any Alterations made by Tenant to the Premises, or (iii)�the Base Building, but as to the Base Building, only to the extent such obligations are triggered by Alterations made by Tenant to the Premises to the extent such Alterations are either not normal and customary business office improvements, or are required for Tenant's use of the Premises for nongeneral office or life-science use. Following the Lease Commencement Date, Tenant shall be responsible, at its sole cost and expense, to make all alterations to the Premises as are required to comply with the Applicable Laws to the extent required in this Article 24. Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Article 24 to the contrary, Tenant may defer such compliance with Applicable Laws while Tenant contests, in a court of proper jurisdiction, in good faith, the applicability of such Applicable Laws to the Premises or Tenant's specific use or occupancy of the Premises; provided, however, Tenant may only defer such compliance if such deferral shall not (a)�prohibit Tenant from obtaining or maintaining a certificate of occupancy for the Premises, (b)�prohibit Landlord from obtaining or maintaining a certificate of occupancy for the Building or any portion thereof, (c)�unreasonably and materially affect the safety of the employees and/or invitees of Landlord or Tenant, (d)�create a significant health hazard for the employees and/or invitees of Landlord or Tenant, (e)�otherwise materially and adversely affect Tenant's use of or access to the Buildings or the Premises, or (f)�impose material obligations, liability, fines, or penalties upon Landlord, or would materially and adversely affect the use of or access to the Building by Landlord. The judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction or the admission of Tenant in any judicial action, regardless of whether Landlord is a party thereto, that Tenant has violated any of said governmental measures, shall be conclusive of that fact as between Landlord and Tenant. Landlord shall comply with all Applicable Laws relating to the Base Building, provided that compliance with such Applicable Laws is not the responsibility of Tenant under this Lease, and provided further that Landlord's failure to comply therewith would prohibit Tenant from obtaining or maintaining a certificate of occupancy for the Premises, or would unreasonably and materially affect the safety of Tenant's employees or create a significant health hazard for Tenant's employees, or would otherwise materially and adversely affect Tenant's use of or access to the Premises. Landlord shall be permitted to include in Operating Expenses any costs or expenses incurred by Landlord under this Article�24 to the extent permitted by the terms of Section�4.2.7 above.
25.����LATE CHARGES
If any installment of Rent or any other sum due from Tenant shall not be received by Landlord or Landlord's designee within five (5) business days after Tenant's receipt of written notice from Landlord that said amount is due, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount plus any reasonable

attorneys' fees incurred by Landlord by reason of Tenant's failure to pay Rent and/or other charges when due hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord shall not charge Tenant a late charge for the first (1st)�late payment in any twelve (12)�month period (but in no event with respect to any subsequent late payment in any twelve (12) month period) during the Lease Term that Tenant fails to timely pay Rent or another sum due under this Lease, provided that such late payment is made within three (3) business days following the expiration of the five (5) business day period following written notice. The late charge shall be deemed Additional Rent and the right to require it shall be in addition to all of Landlord's other rights and remedies hereunder or at law and shall not be construed as liquidated damages or as limiting Landlord's remedies in any manner. In addition to the late charge described above, any Rent or other amounts owing hereunder which are not paid within ten (10) business days after the date they are due shall bear interest from the date when due until paid at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the annual "Bank Prime Loan" rate cited in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release Publication G.13(415), published on the first Tuesday of each calendar month (or such other comparable index as Landlord and Tenant shall reasonably agree upon if such rate ceases to be published) plus four (4) percentage points, and (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law.
26.����LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT; PAYMENTS BY TENANT
26.1����Landlord's Cure. All covenants and agreements to be kept or performed by Tenant under this Lease shall be performed by Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense and without any reduction of Rent, except to the extent, if any, otherwise expressly provided herein. If Tenant shall fail to perform any obligation under this Lease, and such failure shall continue in excess of the time allowed under Section�19.1.2, above, unless a specific time period is otherwise stated in this Lease, Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, make any such payment or perform any such act on Tenant's part without waiving its rights based upon any default of Tenant and without releasing Tenant from any obligations hereunder.
26.2����Tenant's Reimbursement. Except as may be specifically provided to the contrary in this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, upon delivery by Landlord to Tenant of statements therefor: (i) sums equal to expenditures reasonably made and obligations incurred by Landlord in connection with the remedying by Landlord of Tenant's defaults pursuant to the provisions of Section�26.1; (ii) sums equal to all losses, costs, liabilities, damages and expenses referred to in Article 10 of this Lease; and (iii) sums equal to all expenditures made and obligations incurred by Landlord in collecting or attempting to collect the Rent or in enforcing or attempting to enforce any rights of Landlord under this Lease or pursuant to law, including, without limitation, all reasonable legal fees and other amounts so expended.
