The Items below amend the information disclosed under the corresponding Items of the Schedule 13D as described below. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 8 does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is supplemented by the following:

Anesma Loan Agreement

On June 5, 2023, the Company, certain of the Companys subsidiaries (the Subsidiary Guarantors), and Anesma Group, LLC (Anesma), an affiliate of FV, as lender, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the Anesma Loan Agreement) to make available to the Company a secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $50 million (the Anesma Loan Facility), of which $25 million was drawn on June 5, 2023. Until June 30, 2023, the Company has the right under the Loan Agreement to request an additional advance not to exceed the cashflow requirements of the Company as determined by Anesma for the three-calendar week period immediately following the proposed advance date, subject to a maximum of $25 million in the aggregate.

The Anesma Loan Facility matures on June 15, 2024. Loans under the Anesma Loan Facility will accrue interest at a rate of 12% per annum. Interest is capitalized when due, on the first business day of each calendar quarter beginning with the calendar quarter starting after the advance date of any advance.

The obligations under the Anesma Loan Facility are (i) guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors, and (ii) secured by a perfected first lien security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, in each case subject to certain limitations and exclusions.

Prepayment of the outstanding amounts under the Anesma Loan Facility will be required upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company, as specified in the Anesma Loan Agreement. In addition, the Company may at its option prepay the outstanding principal amount of the loans under the Anesma Loan Facility before the maturity date of such loans without the incurrence of a prepayment fee.

The representations, covenants, and events of default in the Anesma Loan Agreement are customary for financing transactions of this nature. If any payment under the Anesma Loan Facility is not made when due, an amount equal to 3% of the past due amount shall be payable on demand. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, all principal, interest and other obligations under the Anesma Loan Facility shall bear interest at 12% per annum plus 1%. The Anesma Loan Agreement includes customary affirmative and negative covenants and also contains financial covenants, including the following: (i) the Company shall provide the Lenders on the last business day of each week with (a) a 13-week cash flow forecast for the Company, including, without limitation, consolidated balance sheets, statements of income, and cash flow forecasts, and (b) aged listings of accounts receivable and accounts payable; (ii) As of the last day of each fiscal quarter, the Company and its consolidated entities shall have revenue (determined in accordance with GAAP) of not less than $150,000,000 on a trailing 12 month basis; (iii) on the last Business Day of each week, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall have, on a consolidated basis, liquidity calculated as (a) unrestricted, unencumbered cash and cash equivalents denominated in dollars in one or more deposit accounts located in the United States, plus (b) any additional amount of available credit, borrowings, or investments readily convertible to cash to the extent necessary, so that the sum of the amounts described in clauses (a) and (b) is not less than $2,000,000; (iv) commencing on June 2, 2023, and on a weekly basis thereafter, the Company shall, or shall cause its financial advisors to, prepare and deliver to the

Lenders cash flow projections, in form and methodology as previously provided to the Lender, showing that the Company and the other Subsidiary Guarantors have adequate liquidity to operate their businesses through and including the calendar year ending December 31, 2023; and (v) the repayment or prepayment of all or any part of Tranche 3 (as defined in the loan agreement by and between DSM Finance B.V. and the Company) on or before April 15, 2024 other than from proceeds of sale of (a) all of the capital stock of Amyris RealSweet, LLC, or (b) the consummation of any sale of any consumer brands from which, in the case of this clause (b), the Company shall receive at least $75,000,000 in gross proceeds, which must, in each case, be on terms acceptable to the Lender in its absolute discretion, shall constitute an event of default (collectively, the Anesma Covenants).

Omnibus Amendment Agreement to 2019 LSA, 2022 LSA and Perrara LSA

On June 5, 2023, the Company and certain of the Companys subsidiaries entered into omnibus amendment agreements (collectively, the Omnibus Amendment Agreements) with each of FV and Perrara (the Lenders), pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to waive all existing defaults under the following agreements: (i) the 2019 LSA (ii) the 2022 LSA, and (iii) the Loan and Security Agreement (the Perrara LSA), dated March 10, 2023 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time), by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, and Perrara. In addition to waiving such defaults, the Lenders agreed to (a) extend the final maturity date of the 2019 LSA to July 1, 2024, (b) extend certain repayment dates under the 2022 LSA such that $50 million will be due and payable on April 15, 2024 and $30 million will be due and payable on the maturity date of June 15, 2024, and (c) extend the repayment and maturity dates under the Perrara LSA such that $12.5 million will be due and payable on April 15, 2024, $12.5 million will be due and payable on June 15, 2024 and $12.5 million will be due and payable on the maturity date of September 15, 2024. Default interest that previously accrued under the 2019 LSA is deemed to accrue until the 2019 LSA maturity date. Default interest that previously accrued under the 2022 LSA and 2023 LSA is deemed to have been paid in kind and added to the outstanding principal amount due on the maturity dates of the 2022 LSA and 2023 LSA, respectively. In addition, the Omnibus Amendment Agreements amend the 2019 LSA, 2022 LSA and Perrara LSA to include covenants substantially similar to the Anesma Covenants.

In exchange for each of the Lenders entering into an Omnibus Amendment Agreement, the Company agreed to certain conditions and covenants, including the Company entering into an amendment to the loan agreement by and between the Company and DSM Finance B.V. and the Company entering into, and incurring indebtedness, pursuant to a loan agreement with Anesma Group, LLC, as described above.

Except as set forth above, all other terms, conditions and rights of the 2019 LSA, 2022 LSA, and Perrara LSA and the related transaction documents remain in full force and effect, which were described in the Companys prior disclosures.
