Item 1.01               Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On July 28, 2016, we entered into a Letter Agreement with PepsiCo, Inc. to extend the research period under our Collaborative Research, Development, Commercialization and License Agreement dated August 16, 2010, as last amended on March 31, 2014, for an additional forty-five (45) days, through September 30, 2016. Except for this extension, all other terms and conditions of the Collaboration Agreement remain unchanged and continue in full force and effect.
Under the Letter Agreement, PepsiCo and Senomyx have agreed to use best efforts to negotiate in good faith the definitive terms of a longer extension of our current collaboration agreement. During this interim forty-five (45) day period, Senomyx will continue to receive funding from PepsiCo at the same rate provided under the current Collaboration Agreement.
