Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On July 12, 2022, Bioceres Crop Solutions, Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Parent”), completed its previously announced merger with Pro Farm Group, Inc. (formerly known as, Marrone Bio Innovations, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 16, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Parent, the Company and BCS Merger Sub, Inc. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, the Company or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent or the Company, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time, were cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive 0.088 (the “Exchange Ratio”) validly issued, fully paid and nonassesable ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of Parent and, if applicable, cash in lieu of fractional Parent ordinary shares (the “Merger Consideration”). The Effective Time was 4:30 pm ET on July 12, 2022.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was filed as exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2022 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, the Company notified the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) that each outstanding share of Company Common Stock was converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration and requested that Nasdaq withdraw the listing of the Company Common Stock. Upon the Company’s request, Nasdaq filed a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 with the SEC with respect to the delisting of the Company Common Stock. The Company Common Stock will cease being traded prior to the opening of the market on July 13, 2022, and will no longer be listed on Nasdaq. In addition, the Company intends to file with the SEC a Form 15 requesting that the reporting obligations of the Company under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 be suspended.

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

The information set forth in Item 2.01, Item 3.01 and Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

At the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than shares of Company Common Stock owned by Parent, the Company or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent or the Company, were cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

(ii) each outstanding Company RSU that was vested immediately prior to the Effective Time (taking into account any acceleration of vesting as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement), each Change in Control Settled RSU (whether or not vested) and each unvested Company RSU held by a non-employee and non-consultant director of the Company was settled immediately before the Effective Time by way of the issuance of one share of Company Common Stock for each such Company RSU and such shares of Company Common Stock was converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration;

(iii) each outstanding option to purchase Company Common Stock (a “Company Option”) that was unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (and did not vest as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) and each Company Option that was outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (or that vested as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) for which the exercise price per share is equal to or greater than the Cash Equivalent Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (a “Rolled Vested Option”), was assumed by Parent (each, an “Assumed Option), with each such Assumed Option being subject to substantially the same terms and conditions, except that (A) the number of Parent ordinary shares subject to each Assumed Option is equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock underlying such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, and (B) the per share exercise price of each Assumed Option is equal to the quotient determined by dividing (x) the exercise price per share at which such Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Exchange Ratio;

(iv) each Company Option, other than a Rolled Vested Option, that was outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (or vested as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement) was cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of each “net” share underlying such Company Option, which is the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the product of (x) the excess of the Cash Equivalent Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement) over the per share exercise price of such Company Option multiplied by (y) the number of shares subject to such Company Option by (B) the Cash Equivalent Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement); and

(v) each outstanding warrant to purchase Company Common Stock expired.
