(a) Issuance of Notes. On January 17, 2012, May 12, 2012, July 31, 2012, August 31, 2012 and April 2013, the Company issued to the Early Investors convertible promissory notes in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (“Initial Notes”). The form of the Initial Notes attached hereto reflects changes made to such Notes pursuant to the Loan Document Amendment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company agrees to issue and sell to each Investor at a Closing occurring on or after the Effective Date (each a “Subsequent Closing”), and each Investor as a Subsequent Closing (“Subsequent Investor”) agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase, a secured convertible promissory note in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto (each, a “Subsequent Note”, and with the Initial Notes, each a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes”), in the principal amount set forth opposite the respective Investor’s name for the applicable Subsequent Closing on Schedule I hereto . The RiceX Company, a Delaware corporation, and Rice Science, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (collectively, “Patent Subsidiaries”), will be obligors under the Notes. The “Conversion Price” of a Note issued at a Closing (as defined below) shall equal Seven Cents ($0.07), subject to adjustment as provided in the Note. The Company may sell Notes at one or more Closings (as defined below) that collectively have aggregate initial principal amounts of up to Eight Million Dollars ($8,000,000) (“Maximum Offering Amount”), which Maximum Offering Amount does not include any additional principal that may become outstanding under the Notes pursuant to their terms relating to the conversion of accrued interest into principal.
(b) Issuance of Warrants. In connection with the issuance and sale of the Initial Notes, the Company issued to each Investor a warrant in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 (“Initial Warrants”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The form of the Initial Warrants attached hereto reflects changes made to such Initial Warrants pursuant to the Loan Document Amendment. In consideration for the purchase by a Subsequent Investor of a Note at a Subsequent Closing, the Company will issue to such Subsequent Investor a warrant in the form of Exhibit B-2 (the “Subsequent Warrants”, and together with the Initial Warrants, each a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase up to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the principal amount of the Note issued to the Investor at a Closing by (ii) the initial Conversion Price of the Note sold to Investor at a Closing (“Warrant Share Number”). The Warrant Share Number for each Warrant will be set forth opposite each Investor’s name on the Schedule I hereto. The per share exercise price of a Warrant issued at a Closing (“Exercise Price”) shall equal Eight Cents ($0.08).
(c) Issuance of Restricted Stock to Subsequent Investors. Each Subsequent Investor that pays to the Company at least Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) to purchase a Subsequent Note and a Subsequent Warrant at a Subsequent Closing, shall receive, in addition to such Subsequent Note and Subsequent Warrant, two and one half (2.5) shares of the Company’s common stock for each Dollar invested by such Subsequent Investor at the Subsequent Closing (“Investment Shares”). Each Subsequent Investor understands that (i) the Subsequent Notes that will be issued to such Subsequent Investor in a Subsequent Closings will provide for interest to be paid in kind as provided in the Subsequent Note and (ii) the Initial Notes issued to the Subsequent Investors will be amended as provided herein to provide for interest to be paid in kind. As consideration for this accommodation, each Subsequent Investor shall receive, in addition to the Investment Shares, a number of restricted shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the product of (i) two and one half (2.5) and (ii) the amount of interest that accrues under the Initial Notes and the Subsequent Notes held by the Subsequent Investor that is paid in kind instead of being paid in cash (“PIK Shares”, and together with the Investment Shares, the “Shares”).
(d) Issuance of PIK Warrants to Subsequent Investors. In addition to the consideration described above, Subsequent Investors shall receive a PIK Warrant in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B-3. The PIK Warrant shall have a per share exercise price of $0.08 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like), be exercisable through the period that the Initial Warrants held by the Participating Investor are exercisable, and will, at any time during the period in which the PIK Warrant is exercisable, be exercisable for up to the number of shares of Company Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the amount of interest that is converted to principal pursuant to Section 2 of any Notes held by the Participating Investor in lieu of being paid in cash by (ii) $0.07 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like).
(e) Amendment of Initial Notes and Initial Warrants for Participating Investors.

(ii) Extension of Maturity Date. Each Investor may, by providing written notice to the Company on or before June 30, 2013, elect to change the Maturity Date of the Amended Notes to July 31, 2016. Such Maturity Date shall become effective upon receipt by the Company of such written notice.
(iii) PIK Interest Payments. Section 2 of each Initial Note held by or initially issued to a Participating Investor shall be amended and restated in its entirety, effective as of the date of the Subsequent Closing in which the Participating Investor invests in the Company, to read as follows:

Prior to the Maturity Date, all interest on this Note that accrues during a calendar quarter (“Quarterly Accrued Interest”) shall be paid to Investor by increasing, effective as of the first day of the immediately following calendar quarter, the principal amount outstanding on this Note by an amount equal to the Quarterly Accrued Interest that accrued during the immediately preceding calendar quarter. The Company may prepay any portion of the principal hereunder that represents Quarterly Accrued Interest.”
and, (2) the Initial Warrants held by such Participating Investor shall automatically be amended upon such Subsequent Closing to include in and add to the definition of “Exempt Issuances” (a) the issuance of securities pursuant to the Existing Convertible Debt Facility, the Exchange Debentures, the New Convertible Debt Facility and the TCA Debt Facility (as each of these terms are defined in the Security Agreement), (b) any securities issued pursuant to this Agreement and (c) any securities issued upon exercise of PIK Warrants.

If a Non-Participating Investor later becomes a Participating Investor, any Non-Participating PIK Shares of stock received by such Investor pursuant to this Section 1(f)(i) shall offset and reduce any PIK Shares that such Investor would otherwise receive pursuant to Section 1(c) above.
(ii) Amendment to Note. If a Non-Participating Investor makes a PIK Election, then Section 2 of each Initial Note held by such Non-Participating Investor shall be amended and restated in its entirety, effective as of the date that the Non-Participating Investor makes the PIK Election, to read as follows:
“2. Interest. Prior to the Maturity Date, all interest on this Note that accrues during a calendar quarter (“Quarterly Accrued Interest”) shall be paid to Investor by increasing, effective as of the first day of the immediately following calendar quarter, the principal amount outstanding on this Note by an amount equal to the Quarterly Accrued Interest that accrued during the immediately preceding calendar quarter.

The Investor has conducted its own due diligence and has not relied on any third-party other than the Company, including without limitation Xxxxxxx Capital, in making its investment decision.
(b) Accredited Investor. The Investor is, and will be at the time of the applicable Closing, an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Such Investor is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; is experienced in investments and business matters, has made investments of a speculative nature; understands that an investment in the Note and Warrant involves a high degree of risk, and, with its representatives, has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax and other business matters as to enable the Investor to utilize the information made available by the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of and to make an informed investment decision with respect to the proposed purchase, which represents a speculative investment. The Investor has the authority and is duly and legally qualified to purchase and own the Note, the Warrant and any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder. The Investor is able to bear the risk of such investment for an indefinite period and to afford a complete loss thereof. The information set forth on Schedule 1 for the Investor is accurate.
(c) Purchase of Notes and Warrants. At the Closing, the Investor will purchase the Note, the Warrant and any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder, as principal for its own account for investment only and not as a nominee or agent and not with a view towards or for resale in connection with the distribution of the Note, the Warrant, any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder or any other securities issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof, except pursuant to sales that are registered under, or are exempt from the registration requirements of, the Securities Act.
(d) Compliance with Securities Act. The Investor understands and agrees that the Note, the Warrant, any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder and the underlying securities thereof are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws, by reason of their issuance in a transaction that does not require registration under the Securities Act (based in part on the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Investor contained herein), and that such securities must be held indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition is registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from such registration. Such Investor is aware that the Company is under no obligation to effect any such registration with respect to the Note, the Warrant, any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder, or the securities underlying such securities.
(e) Restriction on Transfer. Each Investor that will receive Shares understands and agrees that any certificates representing the Shares will contain typical restrictive legends and any other legends required under State securities laws. Prior to any proposed sale, assignment, transfer or pledge of any of the Shares, unless there is in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 covering the proposed transfer, Investor shall give written notice to the Company of Investor's intention to effect such transfer, sale, assignment or pledge. Each such notice shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer, sale, assignment or pledge in sufficient detail, and shall be accompanied at such Investor's expense by either (i) a written opinion of legal counsel who shall, and whose legal opinion shall be, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, addressed to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer of the Shares may be effected without registration under the Securities Act, or (ii) any other evidence reasonably satisfactory to counsel to the Company, whereupon Investor shall be entitled to transfer such Shares in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by Investor to the Company, provided that, in the event that the Shares are transferred other than in accordance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, such transferee has executed an investment representation statement in customary form and agreed to be bound by the terms of this Section.
(f) Communication of Offer. The offer to sell the Note, the Warrant and any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder was directly communicated to the Investor by the Company. At no time was the Investor presented with or solicited by any leaflet, newspaper or magazine article, radio or television advertisement, or any other form of general advertising, or solicited or invited to attend a promotional meeting otherwise than in connection and concurrently with such communicated offer.
(g) Organization; Authority. If an entity, such Investor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with full right, corporate or partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder.
(h) Authority; Enforceability. This Agreement and other agreements delivered together with this Agreement or in connection herewith have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Investor and are valid and binding agreements enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity; and Investor has full corporate power and authority necessary to enter into this Agreement and such other agreements and to perform its obligations hereunder and under all other agreements entered into by the Investor relating hereto.
(i) Correctness of Representations. Such Investor understands that the Note, the Warrant and any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties of such Investor set forth in this Section 3 in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Investor to acquire the Note, the Warrant and any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder. Each Investor represents that the foregoing representations and warranties are true and correct as of the date hereof and, unless an Investor otherwise notifies the Company prior to the Closing, shall be true and correct as of Closing.
(j) No Tax or Legal Advice. Such Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement, any other agreement or any other materials presented to such Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Note, the Warrant and any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Such Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Note, the Warrant and any other security of the Company acquired by the Investor hereunder.

Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument referencing this Agreement and signed by the Company and Investors holding a Majority in Interest; provided, however, that Investors purchasing Notes and Warrants in a Closing after the Initial Closing may become parties to this Agreement in accordance with Section 1(e) without any amendment of this Agreement or the Security Agreement pursuant to this paragraph or any consent or approval of any other Investor; and provided, further, that if any amendment, waiver, discharge or termination operates in a manner that treats any Investor at a particular Closing different from other Investors at such Closing with respect to the Notes and Warrants issued to them at such Closing, the consent of such Investor shall also be required for such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination. Any such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each holder of any of the securities purchased under this Agreement at the time outstanding (including securities into which such securities have been converted or exchanged or for which securities have been exercised) and each future holder of all such securities.
(b) Governing Law. This Agreement and all actions arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions of the State of California or of any other state.
(c) Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
(d) Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer described in Sections 6(e) and 6(f) below, the rights and obligations of the Company and the Investors shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties.
(e) Registration, Transfer and Replacement of the Notes. The Notes issuable under this Agreement shall be registered notes. The Company will keep, at its principal executive office, books for the registration and registration of transfer of the Notes. Prior to presentation of any Note for registration of transfer, the Company shall treat the Person in whose name such Note is registered as the owner and holder of such Note for all purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and the Company shall not be affected by notice to the contrary. Subject to any restrictions on or conditions to transfer set forth in any Note, the holder of any Note, at its option, may in person or by duly authorized attorney surrender the same for exchange at the Company’s chief executive office, and promptly thereafter and at the Company’s expense, except as provided below, receive in exchange therefor one or more new Note(s), each in the principal requested by such holder, dated the date to which interest shall have been paid on the Note so surrendered or, if no interest shall have yet been so paid, dated the date of the Note so surrendered and registered in the name of such Person or Persons as shall have been designated in writing by such holder or its attorney for the same principal amount as the then unpaid principal amount of the Note so surrendered. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note and (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it; or (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender thereof, the Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Note executed in the same manner as the Note being replaced, in the same principal amount as the unpaid principal amount of such Note and dated the date to which interest shall have been paid on such Note or, if no interest shall have yet been so paid, dated the date of such Note.
(f) Assignment by the Company. The rights, interests or obligations hereunder may not be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by the Company without the prior written consent of Investors holding a Majority in Interest.
(g) Entire Agreement. This Agreement together with the other Transaction Documents constitute and contain the entire agreement among the Company and Investors and supersede any and all prior agreements, negotiations, correspondence, understandings and communications among the parties, whether written or oral, respecting the subject matter hereof.
(h) Notices. All notices, requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and faxed, mailed or delivered to each party as follows: (i) if to an Investor, at such Investor’s address or facsimile number set forth in the Schedule of Investors attached as Schedule I, or at such other address as such Investor shall have furnished the Company in writing, or (ii) if to the Company, at 0000 X. Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000, facsimile: (000) 000-0000, Attn: Chief Executive Officer, or at such other address or facsimile number as the Company shall have furnished to the Investors in writing. All such notices and communications will be deemed effectively given the earlier of (i) when received, (ii) when delivered personally, (iii) one business day after being delivered by facsimile (with receipt of appropriate confirmation), (iv) one business day after being deposited with an overnight courier service of recognized standing or (v) four days after being deposited in the U.S. mail, first class with postage prepaid.
(i) Separability of Agreements; Severability of this Agreement. The Company’s agreement with each of the Investors is a separate agreement and the sale of the Notes and Warrants to each of the Investors is a separate sale. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the rights of each Investor hereunder are several rights, not rights jointly held with any of the other Investors. Any invalidity, illegality or limitation on the enforceability of the Agreement or any part thereof, by any Investor whether arising by reason of the law of the respective Investor’s domicile or otherwise, shall in no way affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement with respect to other Investors. If any provision of this Agreement shall be judicially determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
(j) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same agreement. Electronic copies of signed signature pages will be deemed binding originals.
(k) Post-Initial Closing Activities. At the request of a Majority in Interest the Company shall cause an amended mortgage, deed of trust or other applicable instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to a Majority in Interest to be recorded in the appropriate governmental offices to secure Obligations with the Company Real Property. The Company covenants and agrees to execute, file and record such documents and do such other acts and things as are necessary or appropriate to further effect the terms of this Agreement.
