Board of Directors

Pamela G. Marrone, Ph.D. is our founder and has served as our Chief Executive Officer and has been a member of our board of directors since our
inception in 2006 and as our President during that period except from January 2015 through August 2015. Prior to founding the Company, in 1995 Dr. Marrone founded AgraQuest, Inc. (acquired by Bayer), where she served as chief executive officer
until May 2004 and as president or chairman from such time until March 2006, and where she led teams that discovered and commercialized several bio-based pest management products. She served as founding
president and business unit head for Entotech, Inc., a biopesticide subsidiary of Denmark-based Novo Nordisk A/S (acquired by Abbott Laboratories), from 1990 to 1995, and held various positions at the Monsanto Company from 1983 until 1990, where she
led the Insect Biology Group, which was involved in pioneering projects in transgenic crops, natural products and microbial pesticides. Dr. Marrone is an author of over a dozen invited publications, is in demand as a speaker and has served on
the boards and advisory councils of numerous professional and academic organizations. In 2016, Dr. Marrone was elected to the Cornell University Board of Trustees. In 2013, Dr. Marrone was named the Sacramento regions Executive

Entomology from Cornell University and a Ph.D. in Entomology from North Carolina State University. We believe Dr. Marrones qualifications to sit on our board of directors include the fact that, as our founder, Dr. Marrone is uniquely
familiar with the business, structure, culture and history of our company and that she also brings to the board of directors considerable expertise based on her management and technical and commercialization experience in the biopesticide industry.

Board of Directors

Our board of directors currently consists of seven members.

In
accordance with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, our board of directors has been divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. At each annual general meeting of stockholders, the
successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election. Our current directors have been divided among the three classes as follows:



| |  |  | The Class I directors are Pamela G. Marrone, Ph.D., Michael H. Benoff and Kathleen A. Merrigan, Ph.D., and their terms will expire at the annual general meeting of stockholders to be held in 2017;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Class II directors are Timothy Fogarty and Richard Rominger, and their terms will expire at the annual general meeting of stockholders to be held in 2018; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Class III directors are Zachary S. Wochok, Ph.D. and George H. Kerckhove, and their terms will expire at the annual general meeting of stockholders to be held in 2019.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The board currently separates the role of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, with Dr. Marrone serving as Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Fogarty
serving as Chairman. The board believes that separating these two roles

promotes balance between the boards independent authority to oversee our business and the Chief Executive Officer and our management team, which manages the business on a day-to-day basis. The current separation of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles allows the Chief Executive Officer to focus her time and energies on operating and
managing the Company and leverages the experience and perspectives of the Chairman.

We believe the board maintains effective independent oversight
through a number of governance practices, including our strong committee system, open and direct communication with management, input on meeting agendas, and regular executive sessions.

In addition, the board has established the following procedures for selecting the presiding director during the executive sessions of the board. The presiding
director will be (i) the Chairman of the board or (ii) another director appointed by the independent directors. In fiscal year 2016, Mr. Fogarty presided at each of the executive sessions of our board.

Director Independence

The rules of The Nasdaq
Stock Market LLC (Nasdaq) generally require that a majority of the members of a listed companys board of directors be independent. In addition, the listing rules generally require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member
of a listed companys audit, compensation, and governance committees be independent. Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and
compensation committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3 and Rule 10C-1, a committee member may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the board of directors or any board committee: accept, directly or
indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries; or be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

Our board of directors has undertaken a review of its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of each director and considered
whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. Our board of directors has also reviewed whether the directors that
comprise our audit committee and compensation committee satisfy the independence standards for those committees established by the applicable SEC rules and Nasdaq rules. In making this determination, our board of directors has considered the
relationships that each of these non-employee directors has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deem relevant in determining their independence, including the
beneficial ownership of our capital stock held by each non-employee director and, in the case of Mr. Fogarty, his employment with The Contrarian Group, Inc., a private equity fund affiliated with CGI
Opportunity Fund II, L.P., which is a 5% stockholder. Based on this determination, the board of directors determined that each of its non-employee members is independent.

Audit Committee

Our audit committee members are
Mr. Kerckhove, Mr. Fogarty and Mr. Benoff, each of whom is a non-employee member of our board of directors. Mr. Kerckhove is our audit committee chair and is our audit committee financial
expert, as defined under the applicable SEC rules. Our board of directors has determined that each of Mr. Kerckhove, Mr. Fogarty and Mr. Benoff is independent within the meaning of the applicable SEC rules and the listing standards of
Nasdaq.

Our audit committee oversees our corporate accounting and financial reporting process. Among other matters, the audit committee evaluates the
independent registered public accounting firms qualifications, independence and performance; determines the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm; reviews and approves the scope of the annual audit and the audit fee;
discusses with management and the independent

registered public accounting firm the results of the annual audit and the review of our quarterly consolidated financial statements; approves the retention of the independent registered public
accounting firm to perform any proposed permissible non-audit services; monitors the rotation of partners of the independent registered public accounting firm on our engagement team as required by law; reviews
our critical accounting policies and estimates; and annually reviews the audit committee charter and the committees performance. The audit committee operates under a written charter adopted by the board that satisfies the applicable standards
of Nasdaq.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity
securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC
regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports
furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial
owners were filed in a timely manner.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have adopted the Marrone Bio Innovations Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all officers, directors and employees. Our Code of Business
Conduct and Ethics is available on the investor relations section of our website (at investors.marronebio.com) under the heading Corporate Governance. If we make any substantive amendments to our Code of Business Conduct
and Ethics or grant any waiver from a provision of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to any executive officer or director, we will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on the investor relations section of our website at
investors.marronebio.com under the heading Corporate Governance. We intend to satisfy the disclosure requirement under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K regarding amendment to, or waiver from, a
provision of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by posting such information on our website at the address and location specified above.

Changes
in Governance and Nominating Committee Procedures

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which stockholders may recommend
individuals for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as potential nominees for director since such procedures were last described in our annual proxy statement, filed with the SEC on April 25, 2016.

Change in Control Agreements

Effective as of
June 17, 2016, we entered into a change in control agreement with each of Dr. Marrone, Mr. Boyd and Mr. Moore (each an Agreement and together, the Agreements). The Agreements provide each of
Dr. Marrone, Mr. Boyd and Ms. Moore, respectively, with the right to receive certain benefits if, in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in each Agreement), such executive terminates his or her employment with the Company
for good reason or the Company terminates his or her employment without cause. Each Agreement provides that in such an event: (i) the executive will receive a single lump sum severance payment equal to twelve months of the executives
annual salary; (ii) all outstanding and unvested equity compensation awards held by the executive will vest; (iii) the executive will receive a lump sum bonus payment in an amount equal to 16.7% of the executives then-current base
salary, prorated based on the percentage of the current year completed prior to termination; and (iv) the Company will pay for health continuation coverage premiums for the executive and his or her family members for twelve months following the
date of termination.

The benefits provided for in the Agreements as described above are subject to the executives delivery of a release of claims
reasonably acceptable to the Company. Under the Agreements, each executive is also subject to non-solicitation and non-disparagement obligations during employment with
the Company and for one and two years, respectively, following termination.

The Agreements supersede and replace the provisions of each executives
employment offer letter as to any matters expressly covered by the applicable Agreement, as well Mr. Boyds and Ms. Moores letter agreements effective March 3, 2015 and February 9, 2015, respectively, discussed above.
However, each executives employment offer letter shall continue to apply to any matters not expressly covered by the applicable Agreement.

Compensation Risk Management

We have considered the risks associated with our compensation policies and practices for all employees, and we believe we have designed our compensation
policies and practices in a manner that does not create incentives that could lead to excessive risk taking that would have a material adverse effect on our Company.

Employee Benefit and Stock Plans

Marrone Bio
Innovations, Inc. Stock Option Plan

We established the Marrone Bio Innovations, Inc. Stock Option Plan, which we refer to as the 2006 Plan,
effective as of July 26, 2006. We ceased granting options under our 2006 Plan after, and the 2006 Plan terminated upon, the adoption of our 2011 Plan on July 19, 2011. Our 2006 Plan provided for the grant of incentive stock options, within
the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), to our employees and any parent and subsidiary corporations employees, and for the grant of
non-qualified stock options to our employees, outside directors and consultants and our parent and subsidiary corporations employees and consultants.

Administration: Our board of directors administered our 2006 Plan. The administrators powers include the power to: determine the fair market
value of our common stock; select the individuals to whom options may be granted; determine the number of shares of stock covered by each option; approve forms of award agreement; determine the terms and conditions of options granted to employees
and consultants (e.g., the exercise price, the times when options may be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any option or
the underlying shares of stock); reduce the exercise price of any option granted to employees and consultants to the then current fair market value of our common stock if such fair market value has declined since the date of grant; prescribe, amend
and rescind rules and regulations relating to our 2006 Plan; modify or amend each option; institute an option exchange program; and make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering our 2006 Plan.

Transferability of Options: Our 2006 Plan allows for the transfer of options only (i) by will; and (ii) by the laws of descent and
distribution. Only the recipient of an option may exercise such option during his or her lifetime.

Certain Adjustments: In the event of certain
changes in our capitalization our board of directors will make adjustments to one or more of (i) the number of shares that are covered by outstanding options; (ii) the exercise price of outstanding options, and (iii) the numerical
share limits contained in our 2006 Plan. In the event of our complete liquidation or dissolution, recipients must be notified at least ten (10) days prior to the proposed transaction and may exercise all vested and unvested options until ten
(10) days prior to such transaction; all outstanding options will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

Corporate
Transactions: Our 2006 Plan provides that in the event of a corporate transaction, as defined in our 2006 Plan, each outstanding option will become immediately vested. In the event of a corporate transaction involving a merger or sale of assets,
options will be exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date that notice of the transaction is provided; the option will then terminate upon the expiration of that period.

2011 Stock Plan

We established our 2011 Stock
Plan, which we refer to as the 2011 Plan, effective as of July 19, 2011. Our 2011 Plan provided for the grant of incentive stock options, within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, to our employees and any parent and subsidiary
corporations employees, and for the grant of non-qualified stock options and stock purchase rights to our employees, directors and consultants and any parent and subsidiary corporations employees,
directors and consultants. We ceased granting options under our 2011 Plan after, and the 2011 Plan terminated upon, the adoption of our 2013 Plan on August 1, 2013.

##### Table of Contents

Administration: Our board of directors administered our 2011 Plan. The administrators powers include
the power to: determine the persons to whom, and the times at which, awards shall be granted and the number of shares of our common stock subject to each award; determine the fair market value of our common stock; determine the terms, conditions and
restrictions applicable to each award (e.g. the exercise price, the method of payment, the method for satisfaction of any tax withholding obligation, the timing, terms and conditions of the exercisability and vesting of the award, the time of the
expiration of the award, and the effect of the recipients termination of service); approve forms of award agreement; amend, modify, extend, cancel or renew any award or waive any restrictions or conditions applicable to any award; accelerate,
continue, extend or defer the exercisability of any award; prescribe, amend or rescind rules guidelines and policies relating to the 2011 Plan; and make all other determinations and take such other actions with respect to the 2011 Plan or any award
as it deems advisable and that is consistent with applicable law, regulations and rules.

Stock Options: Our 2011 Plan allowed for the grant of
incentive stock options that qualify under Section 422 of the Code only to our employees and employees of any parent or subsidiary of ours. Non-qualified stock options could be granted to our employees,
directors, and consultants and those of any parent or subsidiary of ours. The exercise price of all options granted under our 2011 Plan was required to be at least equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The term of
an option may not exceed ten (10) years, except that with respect to any employee who owns more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of our outstanding stock or the outstanding stock of any parent or subsidiary corporation
as of the grant date (i) the term of an incentive stock option must not exceed five (5) years; and (ii) the exercise price of an incentive stock option must equal at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the fair market value of our
common stock on the grant date.

After the continuous service of an employee, director or consultant terminates, he or she may exercise his or her option,
to the extent vested, for the period of time specified in the award agreement. If his or her continuous service terminates for cause, however, the option shall immediately terminate. An option may not be exercised later than the expiration of its
term.

Stock Purchase Rights: Our 2011 Plan allowed for the grant of stock purchase rights. Stock purchase rights are rights to purchase our common
stock for at least one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of our common stock and which are exercisable for thirty (30) days from the date of grant. The purchase price of a stock purchase right may be paid in cash or in the form of
services rendered. The board of directors may subject a stock purchase right to vesting conditions.

Transferability of Awards: Our 2011 Plan
allowed for the transfer of awards only (i) by will; (ii) by the laws of descent and distribution and (iii) for non-qualified stock options, to the extent authorized by the board of directors.
Only the recipient of an award may exercise such award during his or her lifetime except that non-qualified stock options may be transferred to certain trusts and certain family members.

Certain Adjustments: In the event of certain changes in our capitalization, to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits
available under the 2011 Plan, the board of directors will make adjustments to one or more of (i) the number and class of shares subject to the 2011 Plan and that are covered by outstanding awards; (ii) the exercise price of outstanding
awards and (iii) the incentive stock option share limit contained in the 2011 Plan.

Changes in Control: Our 2011 Plan provides that in the
event of a change in control, as defined in the 2011 Plan, the board of directors, in its discretion may provide that (i) the vesting and exercisability of any outstanding awards shall accelerate; or (ii) that each outstanding award
(including, at the board of directors discretion, unvested awards) shall be cashed out; payment due with respect to unvested awards would then be payable in accordance with the existing vesting schedule. Further, the successor corporation may
assume or substitute an equivalent award for each outstanding award; if the successor corporation does not do so, awards held by recipients who have not terminated employment with us will vest in full as of the change in control.

2013 Stock Incentive Plan

In August 2013, our board of directors adopted the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (which we refer to as our 2013 Plan). The 2013 Plan serves as the successor to our
2011 Plan. Our 2013 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, to our employees and any parent and subsidiary corporations employees, and for the grant of non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and dividend equivalent rights to our employees, directors and consultants and our parent and subsidiary
corporations employees, directors and consultants.

Shares: We initially authorized a total of 1,600,000 shares of our common stock for
issuance pursuant to the 2013 Plan, plus the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to future grants under the 2011 Plan upon the adoption of the 2013 Plan. In addition, the number of shares authorized for issuance pursuant
to the 2013 Plan will be increased by any additional shares that would otherwise return to the 2011 Plan after the date of adoption of the 2013 Plan as a result of the forfeiture, termination or expiration of awards previously granted under the 2011
Plan. Further, our 2013 Plan provides for annual increases in the number of shares available for issuance thereunder equal to the least of (i) 3.5% of the number of shares of the Companys common stock outstanding on the last day of the
immediately preceding fiscal year or (ii) a lesser number of shares determined by the administrator. Based on and subject to the foregoing, as of January 1, 2017, including such annual increase, 863,150 shares of our common stock, plus any
additional shares which are subject to options granted under our 2006 Plan or 2011 Plan but are forfeited or otherwise terminate or expire subsequent to January 1, 2017, were authorized for issuance pursuant to the 2013 Plan. In addition, as of
January 1, 2017, under the 2013 Plan, 3,702,740 shares of common stock were issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and settlement of RSUs granted and 2,583,668 additional shares of common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to
future grants.

Administration: Our board of directors or a committee of our board of directors administers our 2013 Plan. In the case of awards
intended to qualify as performance based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the committee consists of two (2) or more outside directors within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. The
administrator has the power to determine and interpret the terms and conditions of the awards, including the employees, directors and consultants who will receive awards, the exercise price, the number of shares subject to each such award, the
vesting schedule and exercisability of the awards, the restrictions on transferability of awards and the form of consideration payable upon exercise. The administrator also has the authority to institute an exchange program whereby the exercise
prices of outstanding awards may be reduced or outstanding awards may be surrendered or cancelled in exchange for other awards of the same type (which may have higher or lower exercise prices) or awards of a different type.

Stock Options: Our 2013 Plan allows for the grant of incentive stock options that qualify under Section 422 of the Code only to our employees and
employees of any parent or subsidiary of ours. Non-qualified stock options may be granted to our employees, directors and consultants and those of any parent or subsidiary of ours.

The exercise price of all options granted under our 2013 Plan must at least be equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The
term of an incentive stock option may not exceed ten (10) years, except that with respect to any employee who owns more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of our outstanding stock or any parent or subsidiary corporation
as of the grant date, the term must not exceed five (5) years and the exercise price must equal at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the fair market value on the grant date.

After the continuous service of an employee, director or consultant terminates, he or she may exercise his or her option, to the extent vested, for the period
of time specified in the option agreement. However, an option may not be exercised later than the expiration of its term.

Stock Appreciation
Rights: Our 2013 Plan allows for the grant of stock appreciation rights. Stock appreciation rights allow the recipient to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of our common stock between the



14

##### Table of Contents

date of grant and the exercise date. The administrator will determine the terms of stock appreciation rights, including when such rights become exercisable and whether to pay the increased
appreciation in cash or with shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, except that the base appreciation amount for the cash or shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of a stock appreciation right will be no less than one hundred
percent (100%) of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. After the continuous service of an employee, director or consultant terminates, he or she may exercise his or her stock appreciation right, to the extent vested, only to the
extent provided in the stock appreciation right agreement.

Restricted Stock Awards: Our 2013 Plan allows for the grant of restricted stock.
Restricted stock awards are shares of our common stock that vest in accordance with terms and conditions established by the administrator. The administrator will determine the number of shares of restricted stock granted to any employee, director or
consultant. The administrator may impose whatever conditions on vesting it determines to be appropriate. For example, the administrator may set restrictions based on the achievement of specific performance goals. Shares of restricted stock that do
not vest are subject to our right of repurchase or forfeiture.

Restricted Stock Units: Our 2013 Plan allows for the grant of restricted stock
units. Restricted stock units are awards that will result in payment to a recipient at the end of a specified period only if the vesting criteria established by the administrator are achieved or the award otherwise vests. The administrator may
impose whatever conditions to vesting, restrictions and conditions to payment it determines to be appropriate. The administrator may set restrictions based on the achievement of specific performance goals or on the continuation of service or
employment. Payments of earned restricted stock units may be made, in the administrators discretion, in cash, with shares of our common stock or other securities, or a combination thereof.

Dividend Equivalent Rights: Our 2013 Plan allows for the grant of dividend equivalent rights. Dividend equivalent rights are awards that entitle the
recipients to compensation measured by the dividends we pay with respect to our common stock.

Transferability of Awards: Our 2013 Plan allows for
the transfer of awards under the 2013 Plan only (i) by will; (ii) by the laws of descent and distribution and (iii) for awards other than incentive stock options, to the extent authorized by the administrator. Only the recipient of an
incentive stock option may exercise such award during his or her lifetime.

Certain Adjustments: In the event of certain changes in our
capitalization, to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits available under the 2013 Plan, the administrator will make adjustments to one or more of the number or class of shares that are covered by outstanding awards,
the exercise or purchase price of outstanding awards, the numerical share limits contained in the 2013 Plan and any other terms that the administrator determines require adjustment. In the event of our complete liquidation or dissolution, all
outstanding awards will terminate immediately upon the consummation of such transaction.

Corporate Transactions and Changes in Control: Our 2013
Plan provides that in the event of a corporate transaction, as defined in the 2013 Plan, each outstanding award will terminate upon the consummation of the corporate transaction to the extent that such awards are not assumed by the acquiring or
succeeding corporation. Prior to or upon the consummation of a corporate transaction or a change in control, as defined in the 2013 Plan, an outstanding award may vest, in whole or in part, to the extent provided in the award agreement or as
determined by the administrator in its discretion. The administrator may condition the vesting of an award upon the subsequent termination of the recipients service or employment within a specified period of time following the consummation of
a corporate transaction or change in control. The administrator will not be required to treat all awards similarly in the event of a corporate transaction or change in control.

Plan Amendments and Termination: Our 2013 Plan will automatically terminate ten (10) years following the date it becomes effective, unless we
terminate it sooner. In addition, our board of directors has the authority to amend, suspend or terminate the 2013 Plan provided such action does not impair the rights under any outstanding award unless mutually agreed to in writing by the recipient
and us.

Our director compensation policy was adopted by our board of directors in consideration of a number of factors, including its
assessment of the previous compensation policy and a director compensation report from Pearl Meyer & Partners, LLC (Pearl Meyer), which our board of directors engaged to prepare a competitive assessment of non-employee director compensation. In August 2015, Pearl Meyer delivered a report to the board of directors regarding market practices, recommending changes, based on our financial and size metrics, that would
bring our director compensation more comparable to the 25th percentile of peers in our industry.

In addition to the above policy, our board of directors
from time to time may consider additional payments to our directors in respect of extraordinary service by such director. For example, in 2015, our board of directors approved a payment of $25,000 to Mr. Kerckhove who provided, on behalf of the
board of directors, input and guidance to our leadership team and executive officers regarding business operations.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND
RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of
April 14, 2017, for:



| |  |  | each person or group of affiliated persons known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | each of our named executive officers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | each of our directors; and
| | - |  | --------------------------



| |  |  | all current executive officers and directors as a group.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------

We have determined beneficial ownership in
accordance with SEC rules. The information does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, the number of shares of common stock deemed outstanding includes shares issuable upon exercise of options held by
the respective person or group that may be exercised within 60 days after April 14, 2017. For purposes of calculating each persons or groups percentage ownership, stock options and warrants exercisable within 60 days after
April 14, 2017 are included for that person or group but not the stock options of any other person or group.

Applicable percentage ownership is
based on 24,779,448 shares of common stock outstanding at April 14, 2017. In computing the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed to be outstanding all shares of
common stock subject to options and warrants exercisable within 60 days of April 14, 2017. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR
INDEPENDENCE

We describe below the transactions and series of similar transactions, since December 31, 2015, to which we were a participant or
will be a participant, in which:



| |  |  | transactions in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of the smaller reporting companys total assets at year-end for the
last two completed fiscal years; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any of our directors, executive officers, holders of more than 5% of our capital stock (which we refer to as 5% stockholders) or any member of their immediate family had or will have a direct or indirect material
interest, other than compensation arrangements with directors and executive officers.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Executive Compensation and Employment Arrangements

Please see Item 11-Executive Compensation for information on compensation arrangements with our
executive officers and agreements with, and offer letters to, our executive officers containing compensation and termination provisions, among others.

Waddell & Reed

On May 31, 2016, we entered into an
amendment to our senior secured promissory notes, dated August 20, 2015, in the aggregate principal amount of $40 million (the Notes) issued and sold to Ivy Science & Technology Fund, Waddell & Reed Advisors Science &
Technology Fund and Ivy Funds VIP Science & Technology (the Investors), each an affiliate of Waddell & Reed, which is a 5% stockholder. Pursuant to such amendment, the Investors agreed to delete from the Notes the provisions that
had required the Company to maintain a $15 million minimum cash balance.

Director and Officer Indemnification and Insurance

We have adopted provisions in our current certificate of incorporation that limit or eliminate the liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach
of their fiduciary duties, except for liability that cannot be eliminated under the Delaware General Corporation Law. Accordingly, our directors will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors,
except with respect to of the following:



| |  |  | any breach of their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This limitation of liability
does not apply to liabilities arising under the federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission. If Delaware law is amended to authorize the further elimination or limiting
of director liability, then the liability of our directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law as so amended.

Our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws also provide that we shall indemnify our directors and executive officers and shall indemnify our other
officers and employees and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by law. We believe that indemnification under our bylaws covers at least negligence and gross negligence on the part of indemnified parties. Our bylaws, as currently in effect,
also permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in this capacity, regardless of whether our bylaws would permit indemnification.



23



---

##### Table of Contents

We have entered into and intend to continue to enter into separate indemnification agreements with certain of our
directors and executive officers that are, in some cases, broader than the specific indemnification provisions provided by Delaware law and our charter documents, and may provide additional procedural protection. These agreements will require us,
among other things, to:



| |  |  | indemnify officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise because of their status as officers and directors;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | advance expenses, as incurred, to officers and directors in connection with a legal proceeding subject to limited exceptions; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | cover officers and directors under any general or directors and officers liability insurance policy maintained by us.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and executive officers. Insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling our company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the opinion of
the SEC is that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

In addition, we maintain
standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided to our directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and to us with respect to payments which may be made by us to such
directors and officers pursuant to the above indemnification provisions or otherwise as a matter of law. We also make available standard life insurance and accidental death and disability insurance policies to our employees.

Policies and Procedures Regarding Related Party Transactions

Our board of directors reviews related party transactions for potential conflict of interest issues. Our board of directors has adopted a written related
person transaction policy to set forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. This policy covers any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions,
arrangements or relationships in which we were or are to be a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal
years and a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, including, without limitation, purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest,
indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness or employment by us or a related person.

Director Independence

For a discussion of the independence of our directors, please see Item 10-Directors, Executive Officers and
Corporate GovernanceDirector Independence above.
