Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Today we announced that on August 2, 2012 we entered into an amendment of our Collaborative Research, Development, Commercialization and License Agreement with PepsiCo, Inc. dated August 16, 2010. Under the terms of the amendment, we have reacquired the rights related to the use of our S9632 sweet taste modifier in non-alcoholic beverages, including a co-exclusive right in the category of powdered non-alcoholic beverages. In consideration for reacquiring the rights to S9632 we agreed that we would not receive certain potential minimum annual royalty payments and a potential future milestone related to S9632 that might have otherwise been payable under the terms of our collaboration agreement. The amendment relates only to S9632 and does not impact either party's rights or obligations related to any other sweet taste modifiers and natural high-potency sweeteners discovered and developed under the collaboration.
