WHEREAS, the Company and the Investor desire to again extend the maturity date of the Note and to make certain other changes to the Note as set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises, undertakings and obligations set forth herein, the sufficiency of which consideration is hereby acknowledged, each of the undersigned parties agree with each other as follows:
1. Extension of Maturity Date. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, effective April 30, 2020, (i) the maturity date (the “Maturity Date”) of the Note shall be extended to the earlier of the day the Company receives cash proceeds from any private placement of its equity and/or equity-linked securities, and May 31, 2020, and (ii) the Note shall continue to provide that the Company shall not effect any conversion thereof, and the Investor shall not have the right to convert any portion thereof, to the extent that the Investor (together with the Investor’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with the Investor or any of the Investor’s Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock after giving effect to such conversion, unless 61 days’ prior notice to waive such provision is given in writing by the Investor. In connection therewith, the Company shall re-issue the Note in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, and the Investor shall return the existing Note, each in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 below. Subject to the issuance by the Company of a new Note in accordance with Section 3 below, the Investor waives any failure by the Company to pay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Note on or prior to April 30, 2020.

2. Mechanics of Note Issuance and Cancellation.  Within three (3) business days from the date hereof, (i) the Company shall re-issue the Note, in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, by delivering an originally executed re-issued Note to Investor’s counsel at the offices of Dentons US LLP at 1221 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020, Attn: Brian Lee, and (ii) the Investor shall return the originally executed existing Note to the Company at its headquarters, for cancellation, it being acknowledged by the Company that the existing Note shall not be cancelled until and unless an attorney at Dentons US LLP acknowledges receipt of the re-issued Note on behalf of Investor. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the re-issuance of the Note reflecting the terms of this Agreement is solely for the convenience of Investor and shall not be deemed the issuance of a new security distinct from the Note.  
3. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to the Investor that, as of the date hereof:
(a)  Organization and Standing. The Company and each of its Significant Subsidiaries (as defined in Regulation S-X of the Securities Act) is duly incorporated, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.

The Company and each of its Significant Subsidiaries is qualified to do business as a foreign entity in every jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified would have, or would reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, upon the business, properties, tangible and intangible assets, liabilities, operations, prospects, financial condition or results of operation of the Company or the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the Note. 
(b)  Power. The Company has all requisite power to execute and deliver this Agreement and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement. 
(c)  Authorization. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by the Company has been duly authorized by all requisite action on the part of the Company and its officers, directors and stockholders, and this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (b) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies. 
(d) Capitalization.  The capitalization of the Company, on a fully diluted basis, is as set forth herein as Schedule 4(d), which information is true, complete and accurate.   
(e) Validity of Note and Waiver of Defenses.  The Company acknowledges the validity, priority and enforceability of the Note as a debt instrument and any of the obligations thereunder and waives (on behalf of itself, and any other person, entity or other party in interest that may claim by, through, or on the Company’s behalf) any right, claim, or defense to the Note or any of the obligations thereunder on the grounds that they should be recharacterized as or subordinated to the level of equity.
(f) No Events of Default. After giving effect to this Agreement, there has not been any, and there is not any continuing, Event of Default that has not otherwise been cured or waived.
(g) Other Loan Agreements.  The Company has entered into valid and enforceable waivers, forbearances or extension agreements (“Waivers”) with each of Foris Ventures, LLC; Naxyris S.A.; Schottenfeld Opportunities Fund II, L.P.; Koyote Trading, LLC; Phase Five Partners, LP; DSM Finance

B.V., Ginkgo Bioworks, Inc. and Nikko Chemicals Co. (collectively, the “Waiving Lenders”) with regards to payments due on or about April 30, 2020. 
(h) Indebtedness.  Since March 31, 2020, the Company has not made any cash payment on or with respect to the principal amount of, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise settle in whole or in part any Indebtedness (as defined below) of the Company, except for any cash payment expressly permitted under Section 5(a) of that certain Note Extension Agreement entered into between the Company and Investor, dated October 31, 2019. 
4. Representations and Warranties of the Investor. The Investor hereby represents and warrants to and covenants with the Company that, as of the date hereof:
(a) Organization and Good Standing. The Investor is a corporation, limited partnership, limited liability company or other entity, as the case may be, duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation.
(b) Due Authorization. The Investor has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.
5. Covenants and Negative Covenants of the Company.  
(a) Indebtedness.  Until such time as the Note is paid in full or converted into Conversion Shares, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Investor, make any cash payment on or with respect to the principal amount of, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise settle in whole or in part any Indebtedness of the Company.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” shall mean any amount, excluding trade payables occurring in the ordinary course of business, that (i) is owed by the Company resulting from borrowed money, or (ii) is evidenced by bonds, notes, debentures or similar instruments or letters of credit (or reimbursement agreements in respect thereof). 
 (b) Financing. At any time prior to the Maturity Date, if the Company raises funds equal to or greater than $20 million, the Company will repay the outstanding principal amount and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Note in full upon the close of such financing. 
(c)  Exercise of Warrants.  At such time as the Investor exercises some or all of its warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to the cashless exercise mechanism provided for under such warrants, the Company shall cause the Company’s stock transfer agent to issue the number of shares of common stock of the Company in accordance with the provisions of the warrants, free of any restrictive legend relating to the Securities Act.  The Company agrees that the shares of common stock of the Company issuable to Investor from a cashless exercise of such warrants would be, for purposes of Rule 144, acquired from the Company (or from an Affiliate of the Company) more than one year prior to the relevant date of determination and therefore, are eligible for resale under Rule 144(b).  
(d)  Validity of Waivers.  Each of the Waivers shall be valid and enforceable at all times from the date of its execution through the Maturity Date, and all of the Waiving Lenders shall continue through the Maturity Date to waive from exercising their respective rights and remedies. Furthermore, no person at any time shall exercise for any reason any of rights or remedies against the Company under any instrument evidencing Indebtedness, or against the Company’s properties or assets, in each case, of the type that would constitute an Event of Default under the Note.

6. Waiver and Amendment. Neither this Agreement, the Note nor any provisions hereof or thereof shall be modified, changed, discharged, waived or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Investor.
