Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (“Amendment No. 2”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 5, 2014 (the “Initial Filing”) and amended on October 2, 2014 (“Amendment No. 1” and, together with the Initial Filing, the “Form 8-K”) by KiOR, Inc. (the “Company”), solely to replace the letter (the “Letter”) presented as Exhibit 17.1 to the Form 8-K. The Company originally filed a redacted copy of the Letter and filed a Confidential Treatment Request with the SEC pursuant to Rule 24b-2 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. After due consideration, the Company determined to withdraw its Confidential Treatment Request with the SEC and is including herewith as Exhibit 17.1 an unredacted copy of the Letter.
Exhibit 17.1 to the Form 8-K is amended and restated in its entirety. Except for Exhibit 17.1, no other changes have been made to Form 8-K. This Amendment speaks as of the original filing date of the Initial Filing, does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the original filing date and does not modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Form 8-K.
