of Codexis India Net Sales reported by Codexis India with respect to each of the Products within the three (3) year period immediately preceding such an audit. Results of any such examination shall be made available to both Arch and Codexis
India. The independent, certified public accountant shall disclose to Arch only the amounts that the independent certified accountant believes to be due and payable under this MOU to Arch, details concerning any discrepancy from the amount paid and
the amount due, and shall disclose no other information revealed in such audit. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, such independent, certified public accountant shall be permitted to disclose to Arch any discrepancy concerning any amount paid

(3) separate understatements in any two (2) year period and if the aggregate of such understatements is (i) related to sales of Products by Codexis India of greater than Two Million Dollars (US $2,000,000) and (ii) each
understatement is more than five percent (5%) in respect of the total Codexis India Net Sales for the period examined, such occurrence of three (3) separate overstatements shall be deemed a Material Breach, and Arch shall have the right,
but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to terminate this MOU and the PSA immediately upon notice pursuant to Section 9.2 of the PSA. The fees and expenses of such accountant shall be paid by Arch, unless the examination results in a
determination that Net Sales have been understated by more than five percent (5%) for the period examined, in which case Codexis India shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Arch in the course of making such determination,
including without limitation the fees and expenses of such accountant.
