2. Purchase Price; Phases 1 and 2.

2.1. Phase 1. The initial phase of the Supply Agreement (“Phase 1”) shall commence on the Effective Date. Phase 1 shall terminate when Youji acquires all of the escrowed RBT Shares (as defined below) in accordance herewith. During Phase 1, RBT will pay Youji a purchase price for the Products as follows:

(a) Purchase Price for RdRB and JRB. During Phase 1, RBT shall pay Youji as the purchase price for RdRB and JRB (i) $20.00 per kilogram of purchased RdRB and $1.20 per Kilogram of purchased JRB (“Cost of Goods”) plus (ii) fifty percent (50%) of the resulting RBT Margin. The “RBT Margin” shall equal the actual revenues received by RBT from the resale of RdRB, JRB and any products incorporating or derived from RdRB and/or JRB to unaffiliated third parties after all returns, refunds, rebates, bad debts, other credits, or offsets and exclusive of any value added or sales taxes, minus the Cost of Goods sold. RBT shall in its sole discretion, but in consultation with Narula, determine the prices for all such Product sales. RBT shall pay Youji the Cost of Goods amounts in cash net 30 days of delivery of the RdRB or JRB F.O.B. Port of Bangkok, Thailand. RBT shall pay Youji the portion of the purchase price attributable to RBT Margin through the release to Youji of escrowed RBT stock as provided in Section 2.1(b).

(b) RBT Margin and RBT Shares. As prepayment of the RBT Margin portion of the purchase price for RdRB and JRB, on the Effective Date RBT shall issue in the name of Youji Nine Hundred and Fifty Thousand (950,000) shares of RBT unregistered common stock (the “RBT Shares”) and deliver the RBT Shares to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (“Escrow Agent”) to be held in escrow. Escrow Agent shall be instructed to release the RBT Shares to Youji as necessary to satisfy the RBT Margin portion of the purchase in accordance with the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C. Solely for the purpose of determining the number of shares of RBT to apply to the accrual of the RBT Margin, the RBT Shares shall be valued at a price per share of $2.80.

(c) Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event or circumstance will RBT issue or be required to issue hereunder an aggregate total of RBT stock in excess of 9.90% of the outstanding shares of RBT common stock outstanding as of the Effective Date.

(d) Other Products. The purchase price for all Products other than RdRB and JRB shall be the lowest price offered by Youji, Urmatt or any other company affiliated with or controlled by Narula for such Product to any third party commercial customer.

(e) Compliance with Securities Laws. The Parties shall take all action necessary to comply with all applicable legal requirements and restrictions imposed under U.S. securities and other laws with respect to the holding and the sale or transfer of RBT Shares.

2.2 Phase 2. The second phase of this Agreement (“Phase 2”) shall commence immediately following the end of Phase 1. During Phase 2, RBT will pay Youji for the Products a purchase price equal to the lesser of (i) the lowest price offered by Youji, Urmatt or any other company affiliated with or controlled by Narula to any third party commercial customer for the applicable Product, and (ii) solely with respect to RdRB and JRB, thirty percent (30%) of the actual net revenues received by RBT from the resale of the RdRB or JRB to unaffiliated third parties after all returns, refunds, rebates, bad debts, other credits, or offsets and exclusive of any value added or sales taxes, or such greater percentage, not to exceed forty percent (40%), as the Parties may agree upon from time to time in good faith based on the actual net revenues received by RBT from such sales.

RBT shall pay the costs of shipping and insurance from the port of Bangkok, Thailand to the designated U.S. port. In the event RBT is entitled to a refund based on item (ii) of this Section, RBT may offset the amount of the overpayment from subsequent payments to Youji or may request a refund, which refund Youji will pay to RBT in cash within thirty (30) days of the request.

3. Forecasts and Inventory.

3.1. Forecasts. Upon execution of this Agreement by both Parties and thereafter at least 90 days prior to each annual rice planting cycle in Thailand during the term of this Agreement, RBT shall, in good faith and in consultation with Youji, prepare and provide to Youji a non-binding forecast of RBT’s estimated requirements for Products for the coming crop year, segregated by Product type (“Forecasts”). Without in any manner limiting RBT’s rights under Section 1.3 to first priority for the purchase of Exclusive Products, Youji shall fill all forecast RBT Purchase Orders for Products to the maximum extent that Youji (directly or through its affiliates) is reasonably able to produce or supply the Products and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to increase to increase supply to supply any unfulfilled orders as soon as reasonably possible. Youji also shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide RBT’s requirements for Product Purchase Orders that are not included in such Forecast.

10.

Indemnification of Escrow Agent.

The parties hereto agree that neither the payment by Depositor or Recipient of any claim by Escrow Agent for indemnification hereunder nor the disbursement of any amounts to Escrow Agent from the Escrow Property in respect of a claim by Escrow Agent for indemnification shall impair, limit, modify, or affect, as between Depositor and Recipient, the respective rights and obligations of Depositor, on the one hand, and Recipient, on the other hand, under the Underlying Agreement.

EXHIBIT D

Extruder for use at Urmatt Rice Mills

Description:

Proprietary and trade secret machine designed and assembled by RiceBran Technologies (“RBT”) from components made by contract manufacturers according to RBT specifications (the “Extruder”). The Extruder’s intended operating purpose is to receive raw rice bran generated from the rice milling process and stabilize the raw rice bran to produce stabilized rice bran (“SRB”) by deactivating the lipase enzyme activity that naturally occurs in raw rice bran as a result of the milling process. The quality of SRB produced by the Extruder will depend on many factors including, among others, the quality of the raw rice bran received for stabilization and the time elapsed between the milling of the raw rice bran and the introduction of that bran into the Extruder for stabilization. Optimal performance can be obtained if raw rice bran is introduced into the Extruders within minutes of milling. Assuming (i) the motors and control panels of the Extruders are modified to accept local Chinese power inputs or replaced with local equivalent motors and control panels, (ii) an adequate supply and quality of fresh raw rice bran is delivered for processing within one hour of milling and free of impurities such as stones, ceramics, metal, excess hulls, etc., (iii) the Extruders are installed, maintained and operated as directed by RBT technicians (including use of RBT specified parts) and (iv) Urmatt personnel do not damage the Extruders, during the Warranty Term (a) each Extruder will have a processing output of a minimum of approximately 2,000 pounds of SRB per hour and (b) the SRB produced by the Extruder will be fit for use in animal nutrition and human food ingredients.
