Item 1.01(a). Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 30, 2011, Codexis, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amendment (the “Grant Amendment”) to the grant (the “Grant”) awarded by the Economic Development Board of Singapore (the “EDB”). The Grant partially supports activities in our Singapore facility, which until recently has focused on pharmaceutical research and development. The Grant Amendment, among other things, permits the scope of the research activities that qualify for reimbursement under the Grant to include chemical and water industry projects, extends the term of the Grant by one (1) year, to March 31, 2013, and confirms the list of expenses that qualify for reimbursement under the Grant.

The foregoing is only a summary of the material terms of the Grant Amendment, does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Grant Amendment that will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2011.
