Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On August 1, 2013, ChromaDex Corporation (the “Company”) entered in License Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Green Molecular S.L., Inc. (“Green Molecular”), a Spanish corporation, pursuant to which Green Molecular granted the Company an exclusive, worldwide right and license (the “License Rights”) to use and practice certain patent rights and to make, have made, use and sell certain products, including the compound pterostilbene, as it is used in dietary supplement products (the “Product”). The Agreement terminates on the earliest of (i) expiration date or abandonment of the last valid claim of the patent rights licensed under the Agreement, (ii) failure by ChromaDex to meet certain pre-development milestones or an uncured default or breach by ChromaDex under the Agreement or (iii) upon prior written notice given by ChromaDex.
In consideration of the License Rights, the Company shall pay to Green Molecular earned royalties on net sales of all licensed products (including sales by sublicensees and affiliates), as well as a percentage of attributed income from sublicensing agreements. ChromaDex is subject to minimum annual maintenance or royalty payments to Green Molecular during the term of the Agreement.
ChromaDex has agreed upon a commercialization plan to develop, commercialize and market licensed products under that Agreement and will make certain payments to Green Molecular in connection with the achievement of certain milestone events relating to product development and regulatory approvals in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.
