PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Amyris, Inc. (the “Company”) expects to file the subject Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 (the "Form 10-K") on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the Form 10-K's due date. The Form 10-K could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense by the date required because the Company is continuing to evaluate its liquidity needs for the twelve month period following the filing of the Form 10-K and associated reporting in the Form 10-K.  In particular, the Company is reviewing and analyzing the impact of recently proposed amendments to funding and collaboration agreements to support the Company's liquidity needs, and of contingency plans by which the Company could, if there are delays or failures in expected funding for 2013, sustain operations.

Attachment 1 to Form 12b-25

The Company's aggregate revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $73.7 million versus $147.0 million in the prior year. The decline in revenue was due to the Company's planned transition out of the ethanol and ethanol-blended gasoline business, which was completed in the third quarter of 2012. Renewable product sales were$10.8 million for the year compared to $0.8 million for the prior year.

Total research & development and sales, general & administrative expenses declined 10.7% to $152.3 million from $170.5 million in 2011, primarily due to reductions in personnel related costs and overall lower spending. The 2012 GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders was $205.1 million ($3.62 per share) compared to a loss of $178.9 million ($3.99 per share) in the prior year.

The Company's balance of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at the end of the fourth quarter was $30.7 million. In December 2012, the Company sold 14,177,849 shares of common stock in a private placement to existing Amyris investors. The transaction included $37.2 million in cash proceeds ($22.2 million was received in December 2012; $15.0 million was received in January 2013), and the cancellation by Total Gas & Power USA, SAS of $5.0 million from an outstanding senior unsecured convertible promissory note.
