Amyris, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) and the members of our board of directors were named as defendants in a putative stockholder class action filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the &#8220;Court&#8221;) captioned </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:139%">Alexander Flatischler v. John Melo, et al.</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:139%">, C.A. No. 2020-0617-JRS (the &#8220;Action&#8221;). The complaint alleged that the Company&#8217;s July 6, 2020 Schedule 14A proxy statement (the &#8220;Proxy Statement&#8221;) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;), omitted material information regarding the transactions described therein, which required stockholder approval of certain issuances of the Company&#8217;s common stock. The Action sought, among other remedies, to enjoin the stockholder vote. After the Action was filed, and without admitting that the allegations in the Action had any merit, the Company supplemented the Proxy Statement by including additional disclosures in a Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on August 5, 2020. On August 6, 2020, the Court approved a stipulated order under which the plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the action as moot, with prejudice as to himself only, but without prejudice as to any other putative class member. The Court retained jurisdiction solely for the purpose of adjudicating the anticipated application of plaintiff&#8217;s counsel for an award of attorneys&#8217; fees and reimbursement of expenses (the &#8220;Fee Application&#8221;). Without admitting that the allegations in the Action had any merit and while continuing to maintain that such allegations were without merit, the Company decided it was in its and the stockholders&#8217; best interests to resolve the Fee Application and avoid further litigation of the issue by agreeing to pay $125,000 (the &#8220;Mootness Fee&#8221;) to plaintiff&#8217;s counsel in full satisfaction of their claim for attorneys&#8217; fees and expenses in the Action. On December 9, 2020, the Court entered a stipulated order providing that the Company would issue this notice. The Court has not and will not pass judgment on the amount of the Mootness Fee.</span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span><br/></span></div><div style="text-align:justify"><span

On July 24, 2020, Amyris, Inc. (the "Company") and the members of our board of directors were named as defendants in a putative stockholder class action filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the "Court") captioned
Alexander Flatischler v. John Melo, et al.
, C.A. No. 2020-0617-JRS (the "Action"). The complaint alleged that the Company's July 6, 2020 Schedule 14A proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), omitted material information regarding the transactions described therein, which required stockholder approval of certain issuances of the Company's common stock. The Action sought, among other remedies, to enjoin the stockholder vote. After the Action was filed, and without admitting that the allegations in the Action had any merit, the Company supplemented the Proxy Statement by including additional disclosures in a Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on August 5, 2020.
