The Expert shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based on the provisions of this Section 2.6 and the definitions referred to herein, only

the Unresolved Changes. The Expert shall be instructed to determine its best estimate of the calculation of the Final Net Equity Book Value based on its determination of the Unresolved Changes, which estimate shall be no higher than the higher of the Parties’ calculations nor lower than the lower of the Parties’ calculations, and provide a written description of the basis for such determination within forty-five (45) Business Days after such matter has been submitted to the Expert, which written determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Each of the parties shall furnish, at its own expense, the Expert and the other Party with such documents and other written information as the Expert may request. Each Party may also furnish to the Expert such other written information and documents as such Party deems relevant; provided, that copies of all such documents and materials shall be concurrently delivered to the other Party in the same manner as such materials are delivered to the Expert. The Expert may, at its discretion, conduct one or more conferences with respect to the dispute between the Parties, at which conference each Party shall have the right to present such additional documents, materials and other information and to be accompanied or represented by such Representatives as each Party shall choose in its sole discretion. The fees and expenses of the Expert shall be paid pro rata by Investor and CAG in accordance with the percentage of the disputed amounts awarded to the other Party as a result of the Expert’s decision.

If the Final Net Equity Book Value is less than the Closing Net Equity Book Value, CAG and CFFIC shall pay, within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such Final Balance Sheet, an amount equal to such deficit to Investor by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account specified by Investor.

The “Earn-Out Amount” achieved in each Earn-Out Period shall be based upon the aggregate Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits (as defined in Section 2.7(b)) of the LLCs and its Subsidiaries for such Earn-Out Period and shall be equal to the product of (i) 0.5 and (ii) the excess, if any, of such Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits over $36,000,000 for each full or partial quarterly Fiscal Period that ends after the Closing and through and including December 21, 2008; provided that with respect to the first (if the Closing does not occur on the first day of a quarterly Fiscal Period) and last Earn-Out Periods, such $36,000,000 threshold shall be prorated for the actual number of days of such Earn-Out Period as compared to the actual number of days

in such quarterly Fiscal Period; provided further that in no event shall the aggregate Earn-Out Amounts due to the CAG Parties pursuant to this Section 2.7 exceed an amount equal to (i) $150,000,000 less (ii) the sum of the Pre-Closing Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits, if any, of the CTG Business for the period from January 21, 2008 to the Closing (the “Earn-Out Cap”).

(i) “Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits” means, with respect to any Earn-Out Period, the profit before tax of the LLCs and their Subsidiaries (or with respect to any period prior to the Closing, the CTG Business), in each case determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with the accounting principles utilized in preparing the audited combined balance sheets of the CTG Business as of May 27, 2007 and the related combined statement of operations and cash flows for the year ended May 27, 2007, including any notes thereto), as adjusted to exclude the effect of the following items:

Within ten (10) Business Days of the selection of the Expert, Investor and the CAG Parties will each deliver to the other and to the Expert a notice setting forth in reasonable detail their calculation of the Pre-Closing Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such period. The Expert shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based on the provisions of this Section 2.7 and the definitions referred to herein, only the amount remaining in dispute. The Expert shall be instructed to determine its best estimate of the calculation of the Pre-Closing Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such period based on its determination of the amount remaining in dispute, which estimate shall be no higher than the higher of the Parties’ calculations nor lower than the lower of the Parties’ calculations, and provide a written description of the basis for such determination within thirty (30) days after such matter has been submitted to the Expert, which written determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Each of the Parties shall furnish, at its own expense, the Expert and the other Party with such documents and other written information as the Expert may request.

The Expert may, at its discretion, conduct one or more conferences with respect to the dispute between the Parties, at which conference each Party shall have the right to present such additional documents, materials and other information and to be accompanied or represented by such Representatives as

each Party shall choose in its sole discretion.

Each Party will bear the costs of its own counsel, witnesses (if any) and employees.

(c) As promptly as practicable, but no later than thirty (30) days following the end of each Earn-Out Period following the Closing Date, Investor shall in good faith prepare and deliver to the CAG Parties a written computation of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such Earn-Out Period. The LLCs and Investor shall permit the CAG Parties and their Representatives to have reasonable access to the books, records and other documents (including work papers) pertaining to or used in connection with Investor’s determination of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such Earn-Out Period and provide the CAG Parties with copies thereof (as reasonably requested by the CAG Parties). If the CAG Parties disagree with Investor’s determination of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such Earn-Out Period, the CAG Parties shall notify Investor in writing of such disagreement (an “Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits Objection Notice”) within thirty (30) days after the CAG Parties’ receipt of Investor’s determination of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such Earn-Out Period. All Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits Objection Notices should set forth the CAG Parties’ computation of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such Earn-Out Period and describe in reasonable detail the basis for their disagreement with Investor’s computation. The CAG Parties and Investor shall thereafter negotiate in good faith to resolve any such disagreements. If Investor and the CAG Parties are unable to resolve all such disagreements within thirty (30) days after the CAG Parties’ delivery of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits Objection Notice, Investor and the CAG Parties shall submit all unresolved disagreements to the Expert. If Investor and CAG are unable to mutually agree on an Expert, Investor and CAG shall select Deloitte & Touche.

Within ten (10) Business Days of the selection of the Expert, Investor and the CAG Parties will each deliver to the other and to the Expert a notice setting forth in reasonable detail their calculation of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such Earn-Out Period. The Expert shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based on the provisions of this Section 2.7 and the definitions referred to herein, only the amount remaining in dispute. The Expert shall be instructed to determine its best estimate of the calculation of the Adjusted Pre-Tax Profits for such Earn-Out Period based on its determination of the amount remaining in dispute, which estimate shall be no higher than the higher of the Parties' calculations nor lower than the lower of the Parties’ calculations, and provide a written description of the basis for such determination within thirty (30) days after such matter has been submitted to the Expert, which written determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Each of the Parties shall furnish, at its own expense, the Expert and the other Party with such documents and other written information as the Expert may request.

(ii) the next $50,000,000 of such Earn-Out Amounts shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the CAG Parties; provided that to the extent and only to the extent that the payment of such cash amount would result in a default under the credit facility for the ABL Financing as in effect at the Closing (as certified by the chief financial officer of Investor), if the Investor elected to pay a portion of the Purchase Price in PIK Notes, such amounts shall be paid by the issuance to CFFIC of 10.75% Earnout Amount PIK Notes in the aggregate principal amount of such Earn-Out Amounts; and

(iii) all remaining Earn-Out Amounts shall be paid, at the election of Investor, either by (i) wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the CAG Parties or (ii) if the Investor elected to pay a portion of the Purchase Price in PIK Notes, the issuance to CFFIC of 10.75% Earnout Amount PIK Notes in the aggregate principal amount of such Earn-Out Amounts.

(f) In the event the Closing occurs following April 20, 2008 due to a delay by Investor in completing the Debt Financing and the Equity Financing or due to a delay in the satisfaction of a condition to Closing within Investor’s control, for all purposes of this Section 2.7, all references to December 21, 2008 in this Section 2.7 shall automatically be updated to reflect the last date in the next succeeding monthly Fiscal Period (for example, in the event of a ten day delay, the date would be updated to January 18, 2009). All payments made pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be treated by all parties for tax purposes as adjustments to the Purchase Price.

(g) The dispute resolution provisions of Sections 2.7(b)(ii) and 2.7(c) shall not apply to, and the scope of the Expert’s authority herein shall not extend to, any dispute of the parties relating to the interpretation, breach or enforcement of any provisions of this Agreement.

Section 2.8. Tax Matters Relating to the PIK Notes and the Warrant. The Parties agree that, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (and, where applicable, state, local, and foreign Tax purposes): (i) the purchase and sale of the Transferred LLC Interests constitutes a direct acquisition by Holdco from the CAG Parties of all of the Transferred Assets; (ii) the Purchase Price PIK Notes and the 10.75% Earnout Amount PIK Notes (if any) shall have an issue price equal to their aggregate principal amounts when issued; (iii) the Warrant shall have a fair market value at issuance of $250,000, which amount shall be treated as a portion of the consideration paid for the Transferred Assets (and, should the Warrant be later sold, repurchased or exercised, no portion of the property then received for such Warrant shall be treated as consideration for the Transferred Assets); and (iv) any cash paid, and the principal amount of any 10.75% Earnout Amount PIK Notes issued, pursuant to Section 2.7 shall be considered payments of additional consideration from Holdco to the CAG Parties for the Transferred Assets.

Section 2.9. Investor Right to Substitute Cash for PIK Notes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Investor may elect to pay (or cause the payment of ) cash in lieu of Purchase Price PIK Notes otherwise issuable at Closing hereunder.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Investor may elect to issue PIK Notes, including all or a portion of the Purchase Price PIK Notes, to CAG as partial consideration for the purchase of the limited liability company interests of Freebird rather than issuing all or a portion of such PIK Notes to CFFIC as consideration for the purchase of the limited liability company interests of Freebird II.

(i) with respect to each such plan that is a medical or health plan, to waive, or cause the waiver of, any exclusions for pre-existing conditions and waiting periods for each Transferred US Employee and his/her dependents to the extent that such pre-existing condition exclusions and waiting periods were previously satisfied under the comparable CAG Plan or Trade Group Plan for the plan year that includes such transfer;

(ii) with respect to each such plan that is a medical or health plan, to provide each Transferred US Employee with credit for any deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by such Transferred US Employee prior to his or her transfer to the applicable LLC Welfare Plan (to the same extent such credit was given under the comparable CAG Plan or Trade Group Plan) in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under such LLC Welfare Plan for the plan year that includes such transfer; and

(iii) to recognize service of the Transferred US Employees credited by CAG solely for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting in any LLC Welfare Plan in which the Transferred US Employees are eligible to participate after the Closing Date to the extent that such service was recognized for that purpose under the comparable CAG Plan or Trade Group Plan prior to such transfer; provided, that in no event shall the Transferred US Employees be entitled to any credit to the extent that it would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service. CAG will make available to Investor employee participation data and year-to-date deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses as of the Closing Date.

(i) Non-Union Defined Benefit Pension. Effective as of the Closing Date, each Transferred US Employee who is not subject to a Collective Bargaining Agreement and who participates in the ConAgra Foods, Inc.

None of Investor or its Affiliates (including the LLCs, the CTG Companies and their Subsidiaries), any retirement plan of any of them or any trust thereunder will have or acquire any interest in or right with respect to any of the assets of the CAG Non-Union Retirement Benefits or any trust related thereto, and CAG will retain full power and authority with respect to the amendment and termination of the CAG Non-Union Retirement Benefits and the investment and disposition of assets held in the CAG Non-Union Retirement Benefits and in any trust related thereto.

(ii) Union Defined Benefit Pension. To the extent required by the terms of any Collective Bargaining Agreement covering Transferred US Employees, effective as of the Closing Date Investor will cause the LLCs or their appropriate Subsidiary to, extend coverage to Transferred US Employees who participated immediately prior to the Closing Date in the ConAgra Foods, Inc. Pension Plan for Hourly Rate Production Employees or the ConAgra Foods, Inc. Jointly Administered Grain Millers Pension Plan (the “CAG Union Retirement Plan”) under one or more new defined benefit pension plans (each, a “CTG Union Pension Plan”) that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and satisfies all terms and conditions of the applicable Collective Bargaining Agreements.

vesting, benefit accrual and eligibility for early retirement and any benefit subsidies) with all service which is credited to such Transferred US Employee for such purposes under the CAG Union Retirement Plan as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that benefits payable under each CTG Union Pension Plan to each Transferred US Employee participating therein or his beneficiary shall be offset by benefits payable to such Transferred US Employee or his beneficiary under the CAG Union Retirement Plan.

None of CAG or its Affiliates (as determined after the Closing), the CAG Union Retirement Plan or any trust thereunder will have any Liabilities with respect to the CTG Union Pension Plan or any benefit required to be provided thereunder by any Collective Bargaining Agreement. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to provide any Transferred US Employee with credit for service following the Closing with Investor, the LLCs, or any of their respective Subsidiaries for any purpose under the CAG Union Retirement Plan.

As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, the account

balances of each Transferred US Employee who participates in the CAG 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the Closing Date will be transferred in cash or in kind (including in the form of any participant promissory notes) pursuant to the requirements of Section 414(l) of the Code from the CAG 401(k) Plan to the CTG 401(k) Plan.

(b) The Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to restructure the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to permit the Closing to occur, including by deferring the transfer of all or part of the CTG Business in certain jurisdictions, liquidating trading positions or other steps to avoid any delay in Closing; provided that no Party shall be required to agree to take or refrain from taking any action pursuant to this Section 7.8(b) that has more than an immaterial impact on the economic benefits or risks of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to such Party.

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at any time or from time to time after the date of this Agreement, at any Party’s reasonable request and without further consideration, each Party shall do all acts and things as may be necessary or desirable and are within its control to carry out the intent of this Agreement and the Related Agreements, including executing and delivering further instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment, novation, confirmation or other documents, and providing additional materials and information, that may be reasonably required or requested.

Section 7.9. No Shop. CAG agrees that, between the date of this Agreement and the date this Agreement is terminated or the Closing occurs, it shall not, directly or indirectly, through any Subsidiary, affiliate, Representative, consortium or otherwise, initiate, solicit or encourage, participate in discussions, or enter into negotiations of any type, directly or indirectly, or enter into a confidentiality agreement, letter of intent or purchase agreement or other similar agreement with respect to (a) any sale, lease or other transfer (in whole or part) of any interest in the LLCs, the CTG Business or the CTG Companies other than in connection with the Reorganization, in the Ordinary Course of Business, or pursuant to Permissible Trading Activities (including the granting of Encumbrances described in clause (f) of the definition of “Permitted Encumbrances” made in connection with Permissible Trading Activities) or (b) any merger, consolidation or business combination involving the LLCs, the CTG Business or the CTG Companies other than any such transactions among and with respect to CAG and its Subsidiaries and affiliates, or (c) the purchase of all or any portion of the assets used in the conduct of the CTG Business, other than in the Ordinary Course of Business, or (d) any similar extraordinary transaction with respect to the CTG Business or the CTG Companies.

(b) With effect as of immediately prior to the Closing, CAG hereby releases and waives, solely for the benefit of the LLCs, and shall cause all of its Subsidiaries (other than the CTG Companies) to release and waive, all rights and remedies of CAG and its Subsidiaries (other than the CTG Companies) (whether now existing or hereafter arising and including all common law, tort, contractual, equitable and statutory rights and remedies) against the LLCs, the CTG Companies, each of their Subsidiaries, and their respective employees, agents and anyone else acting on any of their behalf in connection with the CTG Business, except (i) claims arising under the Affiliate Agreements set forth on Schedule 3.9(a), subrogation rights under any guarantee or other financial assurance and rights and remedies under this Agreement, any of the Related Agreements or any Trading Agreements, (ii) with respect to claims of fraud or misappropriation of material funds or assets, or (iii) to the extent that Investor otherwise consents in writing in its reasonable discretion following the date hereof with respect to the pursuit of any such rights or remedies against employees or other agents of the CTG Companies for conduct by such persons occurring prior to the date hereof; provided that, in connection with any Proceedings brought against CAG or its Subsidiaries, the foregoing release and waiver shall in no way limit the ability of CAG or its Subsidiaries to raise any defenses or counterclaims related to such Proceedings.

(c) With effect as of immediately prior to the Closing, the Parties on behalf of the LLCs and the CTG Companies hereby releases and waives, and shall cause the LLCs and the CTG Companies to release and waive, all rights and remedies of the CTG Companies (whether now existing or hereafter arising and including all common law, tort, contractual, equitable and statutory rights and remedies) against CAG and its Subsidiaries (other than the CTG Companies), and their respective employees, agents and anyone else acting on any of their behalf in connection with the business of CAG and its Subsidiaries (other than the CTG Business), except (i) claims arising under the Affiliate Agreements set forth on Schedule 3.9(a) (which shall not include any claim whatsoever of any employees, agents, officers or directors of the LLCs or the CTG Companies), subrogation rights under any guarantee or other financial assurance, and rights and remedies under this Agreement, any of the Related Agreements or any Trading Agreements, (ii) with respect to claims of fraud or misappropriation of material funds or assets, (iii) claims arising under this Agreement or the Related Agreements or (iv) to the extent that CAG otherwise consents in writing in its reasonable discretion following the date hereof with respect to the pursuit of any such rights or remedies against employees or other agents of CAG for conduct by such persons occurring prior to the date hereof; provided that, in connection with any Proceedings brought against the LLCs or the CTG Companies, the foregoing release and waiver shall in no way limit the ability of the LLCs or the CTG Companies to raise any defenses or counterclaims related to such Proceedings.

(a) For all periods through the Closing Date, CAG will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, maintain in effect policies of insurance covering the CTG Business of a nature, in an amount, and against such risks as are substantially consistent with past practice.

(b) To the extent that coverage under certain Policies has, prior to the Closing, been maintained or provided by CAG or its Subsidiaries (other than solely by the CTG Companies), then from and after the Closing, CAG shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) use commercially reasonable efforts to take all action necessary to permit the CTG Companies to make any claims under such Policies (including directors and officers insurance) with respect to Losses relating to activities occurring on or before the Closing, and shall promptly remit to Freebird any payments related to such claims received by CAG and its Subsidiaries; provided that if CAG or any of its Subsidiaries is pursuing any claim under any such Policies and such claim is not reflected as an asset in the Final Net Equity Book Value, then Investor shall (and shall cause Freebird and its Subsidiaries to) use commercially reasonable efforts to take all action necessary to permit CAG or its Subsidiaries to make any claims under such Policies (including directors and officers insurance) with respect to Losses, and CAG and its Subsidiaries shall be entitled to retain any payments related to such claims received by CAG and its Subsidiaries.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Freebird shall be entitled to continue to use the name

Section 7.14. Financing. CAG and the CTG Companies shall cooperate, and will cause their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and other Representatives and advisors to cooperate, with Investor and the Lenders in connection with the Debt Financing and the Equity Financing, as may be reasonably requested by Investor, including (a) participation (upon reasonable advance notice) in meetings, presentations, drafting sessions and due diligence sessions, (b) furnishing Investor and the Lenders with financial (including financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and including those required to be delivered pursuant to the written commitment for the Debt Financing delivered to CAG) and other pertinent information regarding the LLCs, the CTG Companies and the CTG Business in form reasonably requested by Investor, (c) providing and executing documents as may be reasonably requested by the investors and the Lenders; (d) taking all corporate actions, subject to the occurrence of the Closing, reasonably requested by the Investor to permit consummation of the Equity Financing, the Debt Financing and the direct borrowing or incurrence of all of the proceeds of the Debt Financing by Freebird II in connection with the Closing; and (e) reviewing and commenting on any information or other memoranda prepared and/or distributed in connection with the syndication, including confirming in the case of any public-side information memoranda that no material non-public information is contained therein (it being understood that any proposed public-side disclosure is subject to the rights of CTG under the existing confidentiality agreement); provided, that neither CAG, the LLCs or any of the CTG Companies will be required to execute any pledge, security document, financing document or other instrument that would encumber any of the CTG Business Assets and that would be effective at any time prior to the Closing. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, none of the CAG Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to provide or continue any financial or bank guarantees or other forms of financial commitment (including, without limitation, credit support) to Investor, the LLCs or any of their Subsidiaries; provided that to the extent any such guarantees or other forms of financial commitment cannot be replaced at reasonable cost (it being understood that the cost of any requested letters of credit shall be deemed reasonable) after Investor uses all commercially reasonable efforts to effect or arrange such replacement, the CAG Parties shall continue such guarantees or other forms of financial commitment following the Closing subject to receipt of a letter of credit satisfactory to CAG in an amount that is not less than the amounts subject to such guarantees and financial commitments or otherwise committed by the CAG Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries; and provided further that in no event shall such continued guarantees or other forms of financial commitment by the CAG Parties or any of the their respective Subsidiaries extend beyond the duration (without giving effect to any post-Closing extension, whether effected by action or inaction on the part of any Party) of the applicable guarantee or other form of financial commitment as in effect at Closing.

(a) Except as set forth below, following the Closing and until the second anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Noncompete Period”), CAG and its Subsidiaries shall not, and shall cause their respective affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, (x) engage in the CTG Business as the CTG Business is conducted as of immediately prior to the Closing, or in any business that competes with the CTG Business as the CTG Business is conducted as of immediately prior to the Closing (a “Restricted Business”), or (y) own, manage, operate, control or participate in the management, operation or control of any business, whether in corporate, proprietorship or partnership form or otherwise, engaged in a Restricted Business and shall be permitted also to continue to operate (i) the Commerce City grain investment, (ii) the Lamb Weston Watts Brothers fertilizer business, (iii) the activities contemplated by the Dried Dairy Products Agreement and (iv) any activity currently conducted by CAG’s milling operations, all as currently conducted as of the date hereof; provided that CAG and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to perform risk management services and trading activities for their own account and for the accounts of their Subsidiaries and affiliates and shall be permitted to market and sell excess raw materials purchased or generated in the ordinary course of business; provided further that, subject to the Byproducts Services Agreement, CAG and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to merchandise and sell byproducts of their mill operations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CAG and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to acquire and operate a Restricted Business if such business is ancillary to a larger acquired business and not more than 25% of the revenues of such larger business are derived from the Restricted Business; provided that, if more than 25% of the revenues of such larger business are derived from the Restricted Business and such Restricted Business is acquired during the Noncompete Period, then the CAG Parties shall, promptly following the acquisition and subject to the right of first offer in favor of Freebird in Section 7.15(b), begin steps to dispose of such Restricted Business and diligently pursue such disposition until completed.

(b) In the event that the CAG Parties are required to dispose of any Restricted Business pursuant to Section 7.15(a) during the Non-Compete Period, they shall provide written notice to Freebird of such intended disposition. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, Freebird will notify the CAG Parties in writing whether it wishes to proceed with negotiations with the CAG Parties regarding an acquisition of such Restricted Business. If so, the Parties will negotiate in good faith to agree upon the terms of such an acquisition for up to forty-five (45) days. If the parties are unable to agree upon terms and conditions within such forty-five (45) day period, the CAG Parties shall be free to dispose of the Restricted Business to a third party.

(c) Each of the CAG Parties covenants and agrees that such Person shall not, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries and affiliates not to, during the Noncompete Period, for any reason or no reason, directly or indirectly, hire, employ or otherwise engage any individual who is an employee of any of the LLCs or their Subsidiaries or a contractor or consultant performing services exclusively for the benefit of any of the LLCs or their Subsidiaries on a routine and continuing basis or solicit him or her to leave his or her employment with, or terminate or substantially modify his or her contractual arrangement with, the LLCs or their Subsidiaries, or otherwise encourage or entice any such employee or contractor to do so, without the written consent of the senior human resources executive of Freebird. Each of the Investor and Freebird covenants and agrees that none of it or and its respective Subsidiaries shall, during the Noncompete Period for any reason or no reason, directly or

indirectly, hire, employ or otherwise engage any individual who was an employee of any of the CAG Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries or a contractor or consultant performing services for the benefit of any of the CAG Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries on a routine and continuing basis or solicit him or her to leave his or her employment with, or terminate or substantially modify his or her contractual arrangement with, any of the CAG Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or otherwise encourage or entice any such employee or contractor to do so, without the consent of the senior human resources executive of CAG.

(d) In the event of the breach or threatened breach of any portion of this Section 7.15, the parties agree that the remedy at law for such breach shall be inadequate and that, in addition to and not to the exclusion of any other rights and remedies at law or in equity, each Party shall be entitled to temporary and/or permanent injunctive relief restraining any Person from any activities that might result in or continue a breach of this Section 7.15, and to a decree for specific performance of the provisions hereof, without being required to show actual damage or irreparable harm or to furnish any bond or other security. Further, the breaching Party shall not plead in defense that there would be an adequate remedy at law, and the Party asserting such breach shall be entitled to reimbursement from the breaching Party for all costs, expenses and damages which it may have incurred as a result of the breach of this Section 7.15. Such injunctive relief shall not be the exclusive remedy of the Party asserting a breach of this Section 7.15 and, notwithstanding the existence of such right to obtain injunctive relief, the Party asserting such breach may pursue any and all other available legal and equitable remedies in the event of a breach by a Party of any of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 7.15. If any of the provisions of this Section 7.15, or any part thereof, is hereafter construed to be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall not affect the remainder of the provisions of this Agreement, including the other provisions of this Section 7.15, which shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid or unenforceable portions. If any of the provisions of this Section 7.15, or any part thereof, is held to be unenforceable because of the duration of such provision, the area covered thereby or the type of conduct restricted therein, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to modify the duration, geographic area and/or other terms of such provision and, as so modified, said provision shall then be enforceable. In the event that the courts of any one or more jurisdictions shall hold such provisions wholly or partially unenforceable by reason of the scope thereof or otherwise, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such determination not bar or in any way affect a Party’s right to the relief provided for herein in the courts of any other jurisdictions as to breaches or threatened breaches of such provisions in such other jurisdictions.

Section 7.16. Contribution of Foreign Buyer and Freebird to Freebird II. On the Closing date, immediately following the Closing, Investor shall contribute, or shall cause to be contributed, directly or indirectly, all of the Equity Interests of the CTG Foreign Companies and Freebird to Freebird II.

Section 7.17. Confidential Information. All information about the CTG Business whether furnished before or after the date hereof, whether oral or written, and regardless of the manner or form in which it is furnished or the storage medium, is referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information.” Confidential Information does not include, however, information which (a) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by

the CAG Parties, their affiliates or their Representatives or (b) becomes available to the CAG Parties after the Closing Date on a nonconfidential basis from a Person other than the LLCs who is not otherwise bound by a confidentiality agreement with the LLCs, or is not otherwise under an obligation to the LLCs not to transmit the information to the CAG Parties. Except as required by applicable securities laws and regulations, each CAG Party agrees to keep all Confidential Information confidential and not to disclose or reveal any Confidential Information to any Person or use any Confidential Information. In the event that the CAG Parties are required by applicable law or regulation or by legal process to disclose any other Confidential Information or any other information concerning the CTG Business, the CAG Parties agree that they will provide Freebird with prompt written notice of such requirement in order to enable Freebird to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy. The CAG Parties will reasonably assist Freebird in connection with any attempt it may make to obtain such order or other remedy. If Freebird fails to obtain such a protective order or other remedy, the CAG Parties shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which the CAG Parties are advised in writing by counsel that it is legally required, and the CAG Parties shall exercise their reasonable best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information. Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary in this Section 7.17, each Person otherwise subject hereto may disclose any and all information related to the U.S. federal, state, local or foreign Tax treatment or Tax structure of any of the Contemplated Transactions.

Section 8.1. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing solely as follows:

(b) ninety (90) days after the date of the signing of this Agreement (the “End Date”), by CAG or Investor by notice to the other (if none of such terminating Party is then in material breach of this Agreement which breach has caused the Closing not to occur prior to such date), if the Closing has not occurred on or before the date such notice is given;

(c) by CAG by notice to Investor if any of the conditions set forth in Article VI shall have become incapable of fulfillment on or before the End Date, and shall not have been waived by CAG (unless the failure of any such condition to have been fulfilled results primarily from CAG breaching any representation or covenant contained in this Agreement); or

(d) by Investor by notice to CAG if any of the conditions set forth in Article V shall have become incapable of fulfillment on or before the End Date, and shall not have been waived by Investor (unless the failure of any such condition to have been fulfilled results primarily from Investor breaching any representation or covenant contained in this Agreement).

Section 8.2. Effect of Termination. In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, all further obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate and this agreement shall become null and void and of no further force and effect, except for the obligations set forth in Section 10.5, this Section 8.2, Section 8.3 and Article IX, and except that such termination shall not relieve any Party of any Liability for any intentional breach of this Agreement or fraud prior to such termination.

(i) this Agreement is terminated by CAG or Investor pursuant to Section 8.1(b), Holdco has not yet received the Equity Financing that is the subject of the condition set forth in Section 5.10, and all other conditions to Closing for the Parties hereunder have been satisfied or are capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties), other than any conditions that have not been satisfied or are not capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties) because of a breach by Investor of its obligations hereunder or any failure of Holdco to receive the Equity Financing; or

(ii) this Agreement is terminated by Investor pursuant to Section 8.1(d), and the condition in Article V that shall have become incapable of fulfillment on or before the End Date is the condition in Section 5.10 that Holdco shall have received the Equity Financing, and all other conditions to Closing for the Parties hereunder have been satisfied or are capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties), other than any conditions that have not been satisfied or are not capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties) because of a breach by Investor of its obligations hereunder or any failure of Holdco to receive the Equity Financing); or

(iii) this Agreement is terminated by CAG or Investor pursuant to Section 8.1(b), the Investor has breached its obligation under this Agreement and all conditions to Closing for the Parties hereunder have been satisfied or are capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties), other than any conditions that have not been satisfied or are not capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties) because of a breach by Investor of its obligations hereunder or any failure of the LLCs to receive the Equity Financing;

then Holdco shall pay to CAG, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by CAG, a termination fee in the amount of $27,500,000 as liquidated damages (the “Equity Termination Fee”). The Equity Termination Fee shall be paid by Holdco to CAG no later than three (3) Business Days after the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(d), as the case may be. Holdco shall have no obligation to pay the Equity Termination Fee more than once under this Section 8.3(a).

the Parties hereunder have been satisfied or are capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties), other than any conditions that have not been satisfied or are not capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties) because of a breach by Investor of its obligations hereunder or the failure of the LLCs to receive any Debt Financing or the Equity Financing; or (B) this Agreement is terminated by Investor pursuant to Section 8.1(d), the condition in Article V that shall have become incapable of fulfillment on or before the End Date is the condition in Section 5.9 that the LLCs shall have received the Debt Financing, and one or more of the Lenders has breached its obligations to Holdco under any of the written commitments for the Debt Financing described in Section 4.6, and all other conditions to Closing for the Parties hereunder have been satisfied or are capable of being satisfied (or waived in the case of the CAG Parties), other than any conditions that have not been satisfied or are not capable of being satisfied because of a breach by Investor of its obligations hereunder or any failure of the LLCs to receive the Debt Financing or the Equity Financing); and

(ii) there is a reasonable prospect of receipt of a material recovery from such breaching Lender(s) if Holdco were to bring an action against and/or to enter into settlement negotiations with such Lender(s) (any such action or negotiation, a “Lender Action”);

then: Holdco shall pay to CAG a termination fee (the “Debt Termination Fee”) in the amount of up to $27,500,000 as liquidated damages; provided that (x) Holdco shall bring and thereafter continue to pursue a Lender Action only if the CAG Parties pay 50% of the ongoing prosecution costs and other costs and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Holdco in connection with any Lender Action (including costs incurred in defending any counterclaim), and (y) the sole source for the payment of the Debt Termination Fee shall be 50% of any amounts actually collected from such breaching Lender(s) in such Lender Action. If there is not a reasonable prospect of receipt of a material recovery from any Lender Action, Holdco shall have no obligation to bring a Lender Action, and no Debt Termination Fee or other amount will be payable to the CAG Parties pursuant to this Section 8.3(b).

(i) Any Environmental Liability for the Environmental Matters identified in Schedule 3.15.

Section 9.3. Indemnification and Reimbursement by Investor and the LLCs. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.4, Investor will indemnify and hold harmless the CAG Parties, and each of their officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, employees and other Representatives (collectively, the “Section 9.3 Indemnified Persons”) from and against any Losses relating to, resulting from or arising out of:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Investor in Article IV of this Agreement;

(b) any breach of or failure to perform or comply with, any covenant or obligation of Investor in this Agreement;

(d) any obligation, guarantee or obligation to assure performance incurred or made by CAG or any of its Subsidiaries, including any Financial Assurances, incurred or made with respect to any of the Assumed Liabilities or any liability or other obligation of any of the CTG Companies; or

(e) Third-Party Claims that arise out of the conduct of the CTG Business on or after the Closing Date.

(a) CAG shall have no liability with respect to claims under Section 9.2 (except under Sections 9.2(c), 9.2(d), 9.2(e), 9.2(f) and 9.2(i)) until the total of all Losses with

respect to such matters exceeds fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000) (the "Deductible") and then only for the amount by which such Losses exceed the Deductible. CAG shall have no liability with respect to claims under Section 9.2(i) until the total Losses attributed to the Environmental Liability exceeds the sum of (i) the established reserve on the Final Balance Sheet and (ii) $500,000 (such sum, the “Schedule 3.15 Deductible”) and then only for the amount by which the Losses attributed to the Environmental Liability exceed the Schedule 3.15 Deductible. In no event shall CAG’s liability for indemnification under Sections 9.2 exceed six hundred million dollars ($600,000,000); provided, however, this limitation shall not apply to CAG’s indemnification obligations under Sections 9.2(c), 9.2(d), 9.2(e), 9.2(f), 9.2(g), 9.2(h) and 9.2(i) or for a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.1 (Organization and Good Standing), 3.2 (Enforceability; Authority; No Conflict), 3.4(a) (Company Interests), 3.4(b) (Title) or 3.14 (Brokers or Finders). Neither Investor nor the LLCs shall have any liability with respect to claims under Section 9.3 (except under Sections 9.3(c), 9.3(d), and 9.3(e) until the total of all Losses with respect to such matters exceeds the Deductible, and then only for the amount by which such Losses exceed the Deductible. In no event shall the aggregate liability of Investor and the LLCs under Section 9.3 exceed six hundred million dollars ($600,000,000); provided, however, this limitation shall not apply to Investor’s indemnification obligation for a breach of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1 (Organization and Good Standing), 4.2 (Enforceability; Authority; No Conflict), and 4.5 (Brokers or Finders) and the covenants in Section 7.14 (Financing) or for Investor’s indemnification obligations under Sections 9.3(c) and 9.3(d).

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under any provision of this Agreement for any amount to the extent such person or its affiliate has been indemnified or reimbursed for such amount under any other provision of this Agreement or any Related Agreement.

(c) Except in the case of fraud, the exclusive remedy for any Indemnified Person for Losses or other monetary damages arising from a breach of this Agreement, including any remedy with respect to Environmental Matters, shall be the indemnification provided under this Article IX; provided, however, an Indemnified Person may seek any remedy available to it, at law or in equity, to enforce the indemnification obligations under this Article IX.

(d) In no event shall Losses be subject to indemnification under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 to the extent such Losses were included as liabilities (including any reserve) in the Final Balance Sheet; provided that any Losses in excess of the amounts so included as liabilities (including any reserve) in the Final Balance Sheet shall be subject to indemnification hereunder in accordance with and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of this Article IX. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Losses shall be net of any insurance, indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by an Indemnified Person in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification. The Indemnified Person shall seek full recovery under all insurance policies and indemnification provisions covering any Losses to the same extent as it would if such Losses were not subject to indemnification hereunder. Subject to Section 7.12, in the event that an insurance or other recovery is made by any Indemnified Person with respect to any Losses for which any such Person has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery less the out-of-pocket costs to obtain such recovery shall be made promptly to the Indemnifying Person.

(e) EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL AN INDEMNIFYING PERSON BE LIABLE FOR ANY EXEMPLARY (TO THE EXTENT NOT PAYABLE TO THIRD PARTIES), PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, MULTIPLE OF PROFITS, REMOTE, OR SPECULATIVE DAMAGES; provided, however, that if an Indemnified Person is held liable to a third party for any such Losses and the applicable Indemnifying Person is obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Person for the matter that gave rise to such Losses, then such Indemnifying Person shall be liable for, and obligated to reimburse such Indemnified Person for such Losses.

(f) The right to indemnification or any other remedy based on representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements shall not be affected by any investigation conducted at any time, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any such covenant or agreements, will not affect the right to indemnification or any other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants and agreements.

(g) For purposes of calculating Losses hereunder, any materiality or CTG Material Adverse Effect or Investor Material Adverse Effect qualifications in the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall be disregarded.

(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, CAG shall have no liability with respect to claims under Section 9.2(d), (e), or (f) with respect to Taxes attributable to actions taken by the CTG Companies (other than those in the ordinary course of the CTG Companies’ trade or business, activities, or operations) after the Closing but on the Closing Date.

(i) CAG shall have no liability with respect to any claim under Section 9.2(h) with respect to any Losses attributed to Environmental Liability for the conduct of any environmental investigation, monitoring, clean-up, containment, restoration, removal or other corrective or response action at or upon the Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property (each a "Response Action") unless such Response Action is conducted in a cost effective manner, to attain compliance with minimum remedial standards established under applicable Environmental Law, employing where applicable risk-based remedial standards and institutional controls. CAG may either, at CAG’s option, perform or cause to be performed the Response Action (along with all related negotiations and settlements with Governmental Bodies and third parties), or shall authorize the Investor or the LLCs to perform such Response Action (in which case CAG shall have the right to approve material decisions with respect to such Response Action, such approval not unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). In the event CAG performs the Response Action, the Investor and the LLCs shall provide CAG and its agents with reasonable access to the relevant property or facility and shall reasonably cooperate with CAG in connection therewith, provided that CAG shall undertake diligent efforts to prevent unreasonable interference with operations upon the relevant Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property. Regardless of which party performs the Response Action, the non-performing party shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its sole cost and expense, to reasonably participate in the Response Action, which participation shall include, without limitation: (i) the right to receive

copies of material documents submitted to, and received from, Governmental Bodies or third parties; (ii) notice of, and the opportunity to attend and participate in, material meetings and conference calls with Governmental Bodies or third parties; and (iii) the right to reasonably consult with the performing party. CAG shall have no obligation to indemnify the Investor or the LLCs with respect to Losses attributed to Environmental Liability for the conduct of any Response Action arising from "voluntary action" by or on behalf of the Investor or the LLCs. For purposes of this Section 9.4(i) “voluntary action” shall mean inspections or testing undertaken by or on behalf of the Investor or the LLCs that do not fall into one or more of the following categories (a)-(c): (a) required by applicable Environmental Law or the terms of a lease agreement then in effect, (b) undertaken in reasonable response to an unsolicited third party claim or demand or (c) undertaken in reasonable response to material facts indicating a potentially significant threat to human health or the environment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances shall "voluntary action" include either of the following: (i) the discovery of On-Site Contamination in the course of or in connection with production, maintenance, repair and inspection activities conducted in the normal course of the operation of the CTG Business, including environmental surveillance activities conducted pursuant to industry standard environmental management systems, consistent with standard industry practices; and (ii) actions taken in the ordinary course of facility expansion or construction projects.

(j) CAG’s indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 9.2(h) shall survive the Closing and consummation of the Contemplated Transactions for a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date.

(k) CAG’s indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 9.2(g) and Section 9.2(i) shall survive the Closing and consummation of the Contemplated Transactions without expiration or termination.

(a) Promptly (and in any event within 30 days) after receipt by a Person entitled to indemnity under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 of notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim against it, such Indemnified Person shall give notice to the Person obligated to indemnify under such Section (each, an “Indemnifying Person”) of the assertion of such Third-Party Claim; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will not relieve the Indemnifying Person of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person demonstrates that the defense of such Third-Party Claim is actually and materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Person’s failure to give such notice.

(b) If an Indemnified Person gives notice to the Indemnifying Person pursuant to Section 9.5(a) of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (x) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate, (y) greater than 50% of the Losses are reasonably anticipated to be incurred by the Indemnified Person because such Losses exceed the applicable maximum limit (if any) for indemnification contained in Section 9.4, or (z) material equitable or other non-monetary relief is

sought from any Indemnified Person pursuant to such Third-Party Claim) to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim. After notice from the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this Article IX for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, (i) such assumption will, unless additional information at the time of the assumption emerges to change this conclusion, conclusively establish for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Third-Party Claim are within the scope of and subject to indemnification (but no such assumption shall affect the applicability of any limit on indemnification contained in Section 9.4), and (ii) no compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Person without the Indemnified Person’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any material violation of Legal Requirement and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Person. The Indemnified Person shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims effected without its consent if required pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. If notice is given to an Indemnifying Person of the assertion of any Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Person does not, within twenty (20) days after the Indemnified Person’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person will be bound by any determination made in such Third-Party Claim or any compromise or settlement effected by the Indemnified Person.

(c) With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article IX: (i) both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person, as the case may be, shall keep the other Person reasonably informed of the status of such Third-Party Claim and any related Proceedings at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel, and (ii) the Parties agree (each at its own expense) to render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim.

(d) The provisions of this Section 9.5 shall not govern any Tax Claims, and the procedures set out in Section 9.7 shall govern for all Tax Claims (except as set forth in Section 9.7(b)).

Section 9.6. Other Claims. A claim for indemnification to the extent not resulting from a Third-Party Claim may be asserted by notice to the Party from whom indemnification is sought and, unless disputed within 90 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such notice, shall be paid promptly after such notice.

(a) If a claim shall be made by any taxing authority, which, if successful, might result in an indemnity payment to an Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 9.2, then such Indemnified Person shall promptly give notice to the Indemnifying Person in writing of

such claim and of any counterclaim the Indemnified Person proposes to assert (a “Tax Claim”); provided, however, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Person has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(b)(i) With respect to any Tax Claim relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or (ii) with respect to any other Tax Claim not included in clause (i) for which CAG is the Indemnifying Person (and for these purposes has, subject to any conditions, agreed to assume the defense of such Tax Claim (and such assumption will, unless additional information at the time of the assumption emerges to change this conclusion, conclusively establish for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Tax Claim are within the scope of and subject to indemnification)), CAG shall, solely at its own cost and expense, control all proceedings and may make all decisions taken in connection with such Tax Claim (including selection of counsel) and, without limiting the foregoing, may in its sole discretion pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any taxing authority with respect thereto, and may, in its sole discretion, either pay the Tax claimed and sue for a refund where applicable law permits such refund suits or contest the Tax Claim in any permissible manner; provided that, with respect to Tax Claims described above, (x) CAG must regularly consult with, and accept the reasonable comments of, Investor relating to such Tax Claim and (y) CAG may not settle such Tax Claim without the consent of Investor, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, other than, with respect to both (x) and (y), any Tax Claim, any issue arising from any Tax Claim or any settlement of a Tax Claim where the Tax Claim, issue, or settlement does not, and would not be reasonably expected to, materially impact the Taxes, Tax refunds, claims or assessments, or Tax accounting or reporting of the CTG Business, the CTG Companies, the LLCs or Investor, in each case solely for a taxable period that begins on or after the Closing Date or for the portion of a Straddle Period that begins on or after the Closing Date.

(c) Freebird shall control all proceedings with respect to any Tax Claim relating to Taxes of the CTG Companies for any Straddle Period or taxable period beginning after the Closing Date (other than Tax Claims to which Section 9.7(b)(ii) is applicable), but, with respect to any Tax Claim that relates in whole or in part to any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending prior to the Closing Date (as determined pursuant to Section 9.9), (i) Freebird must regularly consult with, and accept the reasonable comments of, CAG relating to such Tax Claim and (ii) Freebird may not settle such Tax Claim without the consent of CAG, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, other than, with respect to both (i) and (ii), any Tax Claim, any issue arising from any Tax Claim or any settlement of a Tax Claim where the Tax Claim, issue, or settlement does not affect the liability of the CAG Parties under Section 9.2.

(d) This Section 9.7, and not Section 9.5, shall govern the procedures for any Tax Claim.

Section 9.8. Indemnification Payments. With respect to any Losses due and payable under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 by any Indemnifying Person, such Indemnifying Person shall satisfy its payment obligations by paying the full amount of such Losses directly to the applicable Indemnified Person.

Section 9.9. Allocation of Certain Taxes. For purposes of Section 9.2(d), any Taxes of the CTG Companies for a Straddle Period shall be allocated between the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of the period beginning on the first day after the Closing Date. With respect to any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income or receipts of the CTG Companies allocated to the period ending on the Closing Date shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of the CTG Companies as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity including the CTG Companies and any entity in which the CTG Companies hold a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time); provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis, and not on a closing of the books method, (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on and including the Closing Date and the period beginning on the first day after the Closing Date based on the number of days for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date, on the one hand, and the number of days for the portion of the Straddle Period beginning on the first day after the Closing Date, on the other hand. The amount of other Taxes of the CTG Companies for a Straddle Period allocated to the period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period. Notwithstanding this Section 9.9, any Taxes attributable to the period on the Closing Date after the Closing that do not arise in the ordinary course of the CTG Companies' trade or business, activities, or operations shall be allocated to the portion of the period beginning on the first day after the Closing Date.

Section 10.1. Expenses. CAG and its Subsidiaries on one hand and Investor and its Subsidiaries on the other hand shall each bear their own costs and expenses in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the Related Agreements and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions and the transactions contemplated under the Related Agreements and all fees, costs and expenses associated with the Debt Financing, except that fees and expenses incurred by the parties in connection with Material Government Approvals shall be split by CAG and Investor in a 50%/50% ratio and nothing in this Section 10.1 shall preclude any party from seeking its expenses as damages in connection with any breach of this Agreement.

Section 10.2. Public Announcements and Confidentiality. None of the Parties nor their respective Subsidiaries, Representatives or Affiliates shall issue or cause the publication of this Agreement, any Related Agreement or any press release or other public announcement or communication with respect to the Contemplated Transactions without the prior written consent of the other Party hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or withdrawn, except to the extent a Party's counsel deems necessary or advisable in order to comply with the requirements of any Legal Requirement or the regulations or policies of any securities exchange or other similar regulatory body (in which case the disclosing Party shall give the other Party notice as is reasonably practicable of any required disclosure), shall limit such disclosure to the information required to comply with such Legal Requirement or regulations, and shall use reasonable efforts to accommodate any suggested changes to such disclosure from the other Party to the extent reasonably practicable.

(i) For any Pre-Closing Tax Period of any CTG Company, CAG shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed (in a manner consistent with past practices) with the appropriate taxing authorities all Tax Returns required to be filed, and shall pay all Taxes due with respect to such Tax Returns to the extent such returns relate to the CTG Companies; provided that CAG shall permit the LLCs to review and comment upon such Tax Returns, to the extent such Tax Returns relate to any CTG Company, prior to the filing thereof, such comments to be considered in good faith by CAG.

(ii) Investor shall cause the LLCs or the CTG Companies, as applicable, to prepare (or cause to be prepared) and file or cause to be filed when due all Tax Returns that are required to be filed by or with respect to the CTG Companies for taxable years or periods beginning after the Closing Date and shall cause the LLCs or the CTG Companies, as applicable, to remit any Taxes due in respect of such Tax Returns.

(iii) For any Straddle Period of the CTG Companies, Investor shall cause the LLCs or the CTG Companies, as applicable, to timely prepare or cause to be prepared, any Straddle Period Tax Returns of the CTG Companies; provided that Investor shall permit CAG to review and comment upon such Tax Returns, prior to the filing thereof, such comments to be considered in good faith by Investor. Notwithstanding the above, CAG shall timely prepare or cause to be prepared any Straddle Period Tax Returns of the CTG Companies listed on Schedule 10.3(a)(iii); provided that CAG shall permit Investor to review and comment upon such Tax Returns, prior to the filing thereof, such comments to be considered in good faith by CAG. With respect to any Tax Returns prepared pursuant to this Section 10.3(a)(iii), Investor shall cause the LLCs or the CTG Companies, as applicable, to file or cause to be filed, all such Tax Returns required to be filed and pay all Taxes due with respect to such Tax Returns; provided that, CAG shall reimburse the LLCs (in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 9.2 and 9.8) for any amount owed by CAG pursuant to Section 9.2 with respect to the taxable periods covered by such Tax Returns.

(iv) For all tax periods of the LLCs that end on or before the Closing Date, CAG shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed when due (in a manner consistent with past practices) all Tax Returns required to be filed, and shall remit any Taxes due with respect to such Tax Returns.

(b) Cooperation and Exchange of Information. The CTG Companies, CAG, the LLCs and Investor shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any

other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon such other Party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation, Tax Claim, or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The CTG Companies, CAG, the LLCs and Investor agree (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the CTG Business relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by CTG Companies, CAG, the LLCs or Investor, as applicable, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (ii) to give each other Party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if such other Party so requests, the CTG Companies or CAG, as the case may be, shall allow such other Party to take possession of such books and records. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.3(b), CAG will only be required to deliver to the LLCs the portions of such books and records that relate to the CTG Business or CTG Companies and may redact any statements or other information on the portions of such books and records that do not relate to the CTG Business or CTG Companies. In addition to the foregoing, (i) CAG also shall cooperate fully with Investor, as and to the extent reasonably requested by Investor, in connection with Investor’s filing of its Tax Returns and any audits, litigation or other Proceeding with respect to Investor and its Taxes, and (ii) the LLCs also shall cooperate fully with CAG, as and to the extent reasonable requested by CAG, in connection with CAG’s filing of the LLCs’ Tax Returns pursuant to Section 10.3(a)(iv) and any audits, litigation, or other Proceeding with respect to any Taxes shown on such Tax Returns.

(c) Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, CAG shall have sole responsibility for all Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the Reorganization). CAG and Investor shall, and Investor and CAG shall cause the LLCs to, cooperate in timely making all filings, Tax Returns, reports and forms as may be required to comply with the provisions of such Tax Laws. For purposes of this Agreement, “Transfer Taxes” shall mean all transfer, sales, excise, value added, stamp duty, stamp duty reserve tax, documentary, registration and other such taxes (including all applicable real estate transfer taxes).

(i) CAG will use its reasonable best efforts to cause Kalama Export Company LLC to make a timely election under Section 754 of the Code effective as of the Closing Date.

(ii) As promptly as practicable after the Closing Date, but no later than ninety (90) days thereafter, CAG shall prepare and deliver (with assistance as requested from the LLC) to Investor, an allocation schedule allocating all such amounts as provided herein (the “Proposed Allocation Schedule”); provided that, as set forth in Section 2.3, the Parties agree to allocate the aggregate Purchase Price in the following manner: (i) each CTG Foreign Company shall be allocated an amount of Purchase Price equal to its net book value as shown on the Closing

Balance Sheet, and (ii) the remainder of the Purchase Price shall be allocated to the Transferred Assets. In preparing the Proposed Allocation Schedule, CAG shall be entitled to reasonable access to all relevant books, records and personnel of the CTG Companies and its Representatives to the extent CAG reasonably requests such information and reasonable access to complete its preparation of the Proposed Allocation Schedule. Investor will have twenty (20) Business Days following delivery of the Proposed Allocation Schedule during which to notify CAG in writing (an “Allocation Notice of Objection”) of any objections to the Proposed Allocation Schedule, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of its objections. In reviewing the Proposed Allocation Schedule, Investor shall be entitled to reasonable access to all relevant books, records and personnel of the CTG Companies and its Representatives to the extent Investor reasonably requests such information and reasonable access to complete its review of the Proposed Allocation Schedule. If Investor fails to deliver an Allocation Notice of Objection in accordance with this Section 10.3(d)(ii), the Proposed Allocation Schedule shall be conclusive and binding on all Parties and shall become the “Final Allocation Schedule”. If Investor submits an Allocation Notice of Objection, then (A) for twenty (20) Business Days after the date CAG receives the Allocation Notice of Objection, Investor and CAG will use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree on the allocations and (B) failing such agreement within twenty (20) Business Days of such notice, the matter will be resolved in accordance with Section 10.3(d)(iii).

(iii) Any amounts remaining in dispute at the conclusion of such twenty (20) Business Day period that were properly included in the Allocation Notice of Objection (the “Unresolved Allocation Changes”) shall be submitted to the Expert (as determined through the procedures set forth in Section 2.6(c)). CAG and Investor agree to execute, if requested by the Expert, a reasonable engagement letter. Investor and CAG will each deliver to the other and to the Expert a notice setting forth in reasonable detail their proposed allocations. The Expert shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based on the provisions of this Section 10.3 and the definitions referred to herein, only the Unresolved Allocation Changes. The Expert shall be instructed to determine its best estimate of the allocation schedule based on its determination of the Unresolved Allocation Changes and provide a written description of the basis for its determination of the allocations therein within forty-five (45) Business Days after the matter has been submitted to the Expert, which written determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. Each of the parties shall furnish, at its own expense, the Expert and the other Party with such documents and other written information as the Expert may request. Each Party may also furnish to the Expert such other written information and documents as such Party deems relevant; provided, that copies of all such documents and materials shall be concurrently delivered to the other Party in the same manner as such materials are delivered to the Expert. The Expert may, at its discretion, conduct one or more conferences with respect to the dispute between the parties, at which conference each Party shall have the right to present such additional documents, materials and other information and to be accompanied or represented by such Representatives as each Party shall choose in its sole

discretion. The fees and expenses of the Expert shall be apportioned among Investor and CAG as the Expert shall determine. Each Party will bear the costs of its own counsel, witnesses (if any) and employees.

(iv) The Parties agree to treat the following amounts as adjustments to the price paid by Investor to the CAG Parties for the Transferred Assets: (i) any amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.6(d), (ii) any cash paid, and the principal amount of any 10.75% Earnout Amount PIK Notes issued, pursuant to Section 2.7, and (iii) any indemnity payment made pursuant to Section 9.2.

(v) The Parties agree to act in accordance with the Final Allocation Schedule for all Tax purposes (including for purposes of the filing of any Tax Return). The Parties will revise the Final Allocation Schedule to the extent necessary to reflect any payment made pursuant to Section 2.6(d), Section 2.7 or Section 9.2. In the case of any such payment, CAG shall prepare and deliver (with assistance as requested from the LLCs) to Investor a revised Final Allocation Schedule, and the parties hereto shall follow the procedures outlined above with respect to review, dispute and resolution in respect of such revision.

(vi) The Parties agree that, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (and, where applicable, state, local, and foreign Tax purposes) the purchase and sale of the Transferred LLC Interests constitutes direct acquisition by Holdco from the CAG Parties of all of the Transferred Assets.

(vii) The dispute resolution provisions of this Section 10.3(d) shall not apply to, and the scope of the Expert's authority herein shall not extend to, any dispute of the parties relating to the interpretation, breach or enforcement of any provisions of this Agreement, except as may be necessary to resolve the Unresolved Allocation Changes.

(i) CAG shall be entitled to any refunds or credits of Taxes of the CTG Companies attributable to or arising in a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (as determined pursuant to Section 9.9) to the extent such refunds or credits exceed the amounts of such refunds or credits for Taxes accrued on the face of the Closing Balance Sheet. CAG shall not be entitled to refunds or credits that are the result of losses or events occurring after the Closing Date.

(ii) The LLCs, or any Subsidiary of the LLCs, as the case may be, shall be entitled to any refunds or credits of Taxes for which CAG is not entitled pursuant Section 10.3(e)(i).

(iii) If any final adjustment shall be made to any Tax Return for any CTG Company relating, in whole or in party, to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, and if such adjustment results in a Tax Benefit to such CTG Company for any Tax period that begins

after the Closing Date or to a portion of a Straddle Period beginning on the first day after the Closing Date, then Freebird or Freebird II, as applicable, shall pay to CAG or CFFIC, as applicable, an amount equal to the Tax Benefit obtained by such CTG Company. For the avoidance of doubt, no such payment is ever required if the Tax Benefit is included as an asset on the Closing Balance Sheet, and no such payment shall be due until the Tax Benefit is actually realized or received by such CTG Company.

(iv) The LLCs shall forward (or cause their Subsidiaries to forward) to CAG or reimburse CAG for any refunds or credits due CAG pursuant to Section 10.3(e)(i) promptly (and in any event within 15 days) after receipt thereof, and CAG shall forward to the LLCs or reimburse the LLCs pursuant to Section 10.3(e)(ii) promptly (and in any event within 15 days) after receipt thereof. In the case of a Tax Benefit payable to CAG or CFFIC, as applicable, pursuant to Section 10.3(e)(iii), Freebird or Freebird II, as applicable, shall pay the amount of such Tax Benefit to CAG or CFFIC, as applicable, promptly (and in any event within 15 days) after the date on which the Tax Benefit is actually realized or received by the CTG Company.

Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The interest rate on this Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by United States law of general application.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent cash payment of this Note on the Scheduled Maturity Date would then be prohibited by the terms of the Credit Agreement, such cash payment shall be deferred until the earliest date that any such cash payment would not be prohibited under the Credit Agreement; provided that (a) to the extent any cash payment continues to be prohibited through and including the fifth anniversary of the Issue Date, cash payment of all such amounts will instead be due on the date that is five and one-half years after the Issue Date and (b) in no event will any amounts evidenced by this Note be due and payable in cash later than the date that is five and one-half years after the Issue Date (it being understood and agreed that if the Company fails to ensure that all such amounts are paid in cash no later than the date that is five and one-half years after the Issue Date, an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred).

Payment Date that is not paid by the Company as Cash Interest on such Interest Payment Date shall be deemed paid as PIK Interest with no further action required on the part of the Company.

(1) as a condition precedent to making any such Restricted Payment, the Company shall make an Offer to Purchase (with the Purchase Date in respect thereof concurrent with or prior to the making of such Restricted Payment) for portions of the PIK Notes in a principal amount, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon as of the applicable Purchase Date, equal to the product of the Holder Multiplier times the amount of such Restricted Payment and shall purchase PIK Notes validly tendered pursuant to such Offer to Purchase (provided

that the identity and relative portions (as opposed to the aggregate amount) of the PIK Notes to be purchased in such Offer to Purchase shall be at the sole discretion of the Company) on the applicable Purchase Date; and

(2) the making of such Restricted Payment and the consummation of such Offer to Purchase will not (A) if prior to such Restricted Payment the Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement has an Investment Grade Rating, cause such Indebtedness to fail to have an Investment Grade Rating (as confirmed in advance by updated ratings that take into account such proposed Restricted Payment and the consummation in full of such Offer to Purchase) or (B) if prior to such Restricted Payment such Indebtedness does not have an Investment Grade Rating, cause the Company Leverage Ratio to be less than two (2.0) (as calculated on a pro forma basis, assuming the payment of such Restricted Payment and that such Offer to Purchase is accepted in its entirety).

(e) so long as (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall be caused thereby, (ii) the Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement has an Investment Grade Rating and (iii) the sum of (A) the aggregate cash contributed or otherwise paid to the Company by investors on or before the Issue Date for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) and (B) the aggregate cash received by the Company on or before the Issue Date from the issuance of Junior Indebtedness of the Company, less (C) the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments made pursuant to this Section 3.6(e) or Section 3.6(f), exceeds $900 million, the Company may make Restricted Payments in cash in an amount equal to up to 100% of such excess pursuant to this Section 3.6(e); provided that the making of such Restricted Payment will not cause the Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement to fail to have an Investment Grade Rating (as confirmed in advance by updated ratings that take into account such proposed Restricted Payment).

(f) prior to and on the first anniversary of the Issue Date, so long as (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall be caused thereby and (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate cash contributed or otherwise paid to the Company by investors on or before the Issue Date for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) and (B) the aggregate cash received by the Company on or before the Issue Date from the issuance of Junior Indebtedness of the Company, less (C) the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments made pursuant to Section 3.6(e) or this Section 3.6(f), exceeds the sum of (X) $700 million and (Y) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding PIK Notes together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (other than PIK Interest) as of the date of such Restricted Payment, the Company may make Restricted Payments in cash in an amount equal to up to 100% of such excess pursuant to this Section 3.6(f).

(g) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall be caused thereby, the Company may make Restricted Payments within 30 days of the receipt of, and in an amount not to exceed the aggregate amount of, net proceeds from the issuance of Junior Indebtedness of the Company.

(h) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall be caused thereby, the Company and its Subsidiaries may make payments pursuant to the

Management Agreement; provided, however, that the periodic management fees paid to the Sponsor pursuant to this Section 3.6(h) may not exceed an aggregate amount of (i) $5 million in any Fiscal Year plus (ii) any unused amounts under subclause (i) of this clause (h) from the immediately preceding Fiscal Year;

(i) the Company and its Subsidiaries may redeem, repurchase, retire or otherwise acquire Capital Stock of the Company so long as no cash payment is made in respect thereof upon either (i) the exercise of warrants, options or similar rights or (ii) the vesting of any compensatory Capital Stock of the Company if such Capital Stock constitutes all or a portion of the exercise price or is surrendered in connection with satisfying any federal, state or local income tax obligation incurred in connection with such exercise or vesting, provided, however, that if Capital Stock is surrendered in connection with satisfying any federal, state, or local income tax obligation, the Company shall be permitted to make a cash payment of the amount necessary (but not more than such amount) (i) to enable the holder of the Capital Stock to satisfy such income tax obligation, or (ii) to the extent the Company is required under applicable law to withhold any amount of such cash payment, to enable the Company to satisfy such withholding obligation to the applicable Governmental Authority; and

(j) the Company and its Subsidiaries may make nominal cash payments in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares in connection with the exercise of warrants, options or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Capital Stock of the Company; provided that any such cash payment shall not be for the purpose of evading the limitations of this covenant.

(a) directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Indebtedness incurred to refinance existing Indebtedness, but excluding revolving borrowings under the Credit Agreement) that ranks senior in right of payment to or pari passu with the PIK Notes, the proceeds of which are used or are to be used to fund Restricted Payments (other than Restricted Payments made pursuant to Section 3.6(a)) to any holder of Equity Interests of the Company or any Company Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Company Subsidiary;

(b) permit any Company Subsidiary (including CTG) to incur any Indebtedness (including Indebtedness incurred to refinance existing Indebtedness, but excluding revolving borrowings under the Credit Agreement), the proceeds of which are used or are to be used to fund Restricted Payments (other than Restricted Payments made pursuant to Section 3.6(a)) to any holder of Equity Interests of the Company or any Company Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Company Subsidiary;

(d) guarantee, or permit any Company Subsidiary (including CTG) to guarantee, any Indebtedness of the Company (other than Indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement and hedge agreements and cash management related to the Credit Agreement) or any Person other than any Company Subsidiary (including CTG); or

(e) issue, or permit any Company Subsidiary (including CTG) to issue, Disqualified Stock, the proceeds of which are used or are to be used to fund Restricted Payments to any holder of Equity Interests of the Company or any Company Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Company Subsidiary;

provided however, that the restrictions set forth in clauses (a), (b), (c) and (e) of this Section 3.7 shall not apply with respect to, but only to the extent of, Restricted Payments made pursuant to Section 3.6(g).

The Company will not, and will not permit any Company Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction (including any sales or issuances of Equity Interests of any Company Subsidiary (including CTG) or the capital contribution of cash or assets to any Company Subsidiary), contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company or any Company Subsidiary or any Related Party of the Company, any Company Subsidiary or Sponsor (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”) unless such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or the relevant Company Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction by the Company or such Company Subsidiary with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company or such Company Subsidiary or a Related Party of the Company, any Company Subsidiary or Sponsor, provided that (x) in no event shall any Equity Interests of any Company Subsidiary, joint venture or other entity whose capital stock is owned by the Company or any Company Subsidiary be issued, sold or otherwise transferred to the Sponsor or any Related Party thereof and (y) to the extent any Affiliate Transaction or any series of related Affiliated Transactions involve aggregate payments or other property with a fair market value in excess of $55 million, the Company or relevant Company Subsidiary shall obtain an opinion as to the fairness of such transaction or series of related transactions to the Company or such Company Subsidiary, as the case may be, from a financial point of view, from an independent financial advisor of recognized national standing and deliver the same to Holder. The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of this Section 3.8:

(1) any transaction between the Company or a Company Subsidiary, on one hand, and a Company Subsidiary, joint venture or similar entity, on the other, which would constitute an Affiliate Transaction solely because the Company or a Company Subsidiary owns an equity interest in or otherwise controls such Company Subsidiary, joint venture or similar entity, provided the Sponsor or any Related Party of the Sponsor does not have an equity interest in or control of such second Person other than through the Company;

(3) payments in respect of employment, consulting, severance and any other compensation arrangements with, and fees and expenses paid to, and indemnities provided on behalf of (and entering into related agreements with) current or former officers, directors or managers, employees or consultants of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, in the ordinary course of business and on reasonable terms (including the creation of, and amounts paid pursuant to, employee benefit plans, employee stock options or the like);

(5) any transaction with a Receivables Subsidiary effected as part of a Receivables Facility;

(6) letters of credit entered into in the ordinary course of business at market prices;

(7) any sale or issuance of Equity Interests of the Company (or, if to the Company or a Wholly Owned Company Subsidiary, of any Company Subsidiary);

(9) making loans or advances to officers, employees or consultants of the Company or any Company Subsidiary in respect of business expenses in the ordinary course of business for bona fide business purposes of the Company or any Company Subsidiary; and

(10) the entry into and making of payments pursuant to the Management Agreement.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, unless the Company at such time has given notice of redemption under Section 2.5 with respect to all amounts outstanding under this Note, the Holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of this Note pursuant to a Change of Control Offer on the terms set forth in this Note. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will offer a payment in cash equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the portion of this Note to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, unless the Company at such time has given notice of redemption under Section 2.5 with respect to all amounts outstanding under this Note, or, at the Company’s option, in advance of a Change of Control, the Company will make an Offer to Purchase containing information describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase the Note on the specified Payment Date pursuant to the procedures required by this Note and described in such notice.

(b) The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Note applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases this Note (or the portions thereof) when properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer or (ii) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 2.5 of this Note unless and until there is a default in the payment of the applicable Redemption Price. A Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control and may be conditional upon the occurrence of a Change of Control if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Change of Control Offer is made.

(c) The provisions described above that require the Company to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Note are applicable.

Subject to Article IV hereof, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate, partnership or limited liability company existence and the corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence of each of its Subsidiaries in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the same may be amended from time to time) of the Company or any such Subsidiary and the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate, partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

The Company will comply, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, with the requirements of all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority, except for any noncompliance that would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect upon the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), assets or properties of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

The Company shall not (a) engage in any material business or activity or own any material assets other than (i) holding, directly or indirectly, Capital Stock, (ii) performing its obligations and activities incidental thereto under the PIK Notes and the Credit Agreement and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the Acquisition Agreement and the agreements expressly referenced therein; (iii) issuing its own Equity Interests or Indebtedness (including guarantees of Indebtedness) subject to the terms hereof; (iv) preparing reports to governmental authorities and to its equity holders; (v) holding Board of Directors and equity holders meetings, preparing partnership, corporate or limited liability company records and other partnership, corporate or limited liability company activities required to maintain its separate partnership, corporate or

limited liability company structure or to comply with applicable requirements of law, (vi) making Restricted Payments (including the holding of any notes) to the extent permitted by the terms hereof and (vii) activities and assets incidental to the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) or in support of or incidental to the business of the Company Subsidiaries; or (b) fail to hold itself out to the public as a legal entity separate and distinct from all other Persons.

SECTION 3.13 Restrictions on Amendments to and New Restrictions in the Credit Agreement.

(a) The Company will not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, amend, modify, restate, supplement, renew, replace or otherwise change Section [ ]³ of the Credit Agreement in a manner which would subject Restricted Payments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to be used to make payments on the PIK Notes to more restrictive provisions than those applicable to Restricted Payments (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the purpose of making payments (other than Tax Distributions) to the holders of the equity interests in the Company (i) in respect of their equity interests or (ii) in the form of periodic management fees pursuant to the Management Agreement.

(b) In the event that (i) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries amends, modifies, restates, supplements, renews, replaces or otherwise changes, in each case in a manner that would make more restrictive, any provision of the Credit Agreement expressly restricting the ability of the Company to make payments on the PIK Notes (or any of the related definitions contained or referenced in any such provision) or (ii) the Company fails to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prevent any future impediments under the Credit Agreement (including increases in the restrictiveness of existing impediments thereunder), or under the terms of any future Indebtedness, to cash payments under this Note that are otherwise due upon the Scheduled Maturity Date, then the Company Portion shall be adjusted to 25% and the Holder Multiplier shall be adjusted to three (3.0) until such time as the relevant provision or impediment is cured, upon which cure, the Company Portion shall be adjusted to 50% and the Holder Multiplier adjusted to one (1.0).

(a) The Company may not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Company is the surviving Person); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person; unless:

(1)(a) the Company is the surviving Person; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made is a corporation. partnership or limited liability company organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof (the Company or such Person, including the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition has been made, as the case may be, being herein called the “Successor Company”);

(2) the Successor Company (if other than the Company) assumes all the obligations of the Company under this Note pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Holder;

(4) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction and any related financing transactions, the Company or Successor Company, as the case may be, has a consolidated tangible net worth (determined in accordance with GAAP on a consolidated basis for such entity and its Subsidiaries) at least equal to the consolidated tangible net worth of the Company and its Subsidiaries (determined as set forth above) immediately prior to such transaction and related financing transactions, if any.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, clauses (3) and (4) above will not be applicable to (a) any Company Subsidiary consolidating with, merging into or selling, assigning, transferring, conveying, leasing or otherwise disposing of all or part of its properties and assets to the Company and (b) the Company merging with a Company Subsidiary solely for the purpose of reforming the Company, as the case may be, in another jurisdiction and/or changing the form of organization of the Company (e.g., to a corporation).

(c) For purposes of this Section 4.1, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Company Subsidiaries, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Company Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company.

(d) In connection with any consolidation or merger or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company contemplated by this Section 4.1, the Successor Company shall expressly assume the obligations under this Note and shall execute and deliver to the Holder an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Majority PIK Noteholders, evidencing such succession together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that such consolidation or merger or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company contemplated by this Section 4.1 and such agreement in respect thereto complies

with this Section 4.1 and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction or transactions have been complied with and that such agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the successor entity.

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof, the successor Person formed by or resulting from such consolidation or into or with which the Company is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Note referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the successor corporation and not to the Company), and shall exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Note with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein.

(1) the Company defaults in payment when due and payable, upon redemption, mandatory purchase pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, acceleration or otherwise, of principal of this Note;

(2) the Company defaults in the payment when due of interest on or with respect to this Note;

(3) the Company defaults in the performance of, or breaches any covenant, warranty or other agreement contained in, this Note (other than a default in the performance or breach of a covenant, warranty or agreement which is specifically dealt with in clause (1) or (2) above) and such default or breach continues for a period of 30 days after the notice specified below;

(4) a default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there is issued or by which there is secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any Company Subsidiary or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any Company Subsidiary, whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists or is created after the Issue Date, if (A) such default either (1) results from the failure to pay any such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods) or (2) relates to an obligation other than the obligation to pay principal of any such Indebtedness at its stated final maturity and results in the holder or holders of such Indebtedness causing such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity and (B)

the principal amount of such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness in default for failure to pay principal at stated final maturity (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregate $[ ]⁴ million (or its foreign currency equivalent) or more at any one time outstanding;

(5) the failure by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments (to the extent such judgments are not paid or covered by insurance) aggregating in excess of $[ ]⁵ million, which final judgments remain unpaid, undischarged and unstayed for a period of more than 60 days after the applicable judgment becomes final and non-appealable; or

(6) (i) the Company, any Company Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Company Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(d) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property,

(ii) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(g) is for relief against the Company or any Company Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Company Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, in an involuntary case;

(h) appoints a custodian of the Company or any Company Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Company Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries; or

(i) orders the liquidation of the Company or any Company Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Company Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

and such order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (6) of Section 5.1 above with respect to the Company) shall occur and be continuing, the Majority PIK Noteholders may declare the principal of the PIK Notes (including this Note) and any accrued interest thereon to be due and payable by notice in writing to the Company specifying the respective Event of Default and that it is a “notice of acceleration” (the “Acceleration Notice”), and the same shall become immediately due and payable.

Upon such declaration of acceleration, the aggregate principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on all of this Note shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Holder.

If an Event of Default specified in clause (6) of Section 5.1 above with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, then all unpaid principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the outstanding Note shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Holder.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Holder may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal and interest on this Note or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Note.

A delay or omission by the Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

The Company agrees, and the Holder by accepting this Note agrees, that the payment of all obligations owing in respect of this Note is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner provided in this Article VI, to the prior payment in full of all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the Company and that the subordination is for the benefit of and enforceable by the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. This Note shall in all respects rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future Senior Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company, and will be senior in right of payment to all existing and future Subordinated

Indebtedness of the Company; and only Indebtedness of the Company that is Senior Indebtedness shall rank senior to this Note in accordance with the provisions set forth herein. All provisions of this Article VI shall be subject to Section 6.12.

Upon any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company to creditors upon a total or partial liquidation or a total or partial dissolution of the Company or in a reorganization of or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property:

(a) the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of such Senior Indebtedness (including interest accruing after, or which would accrue but for, the commencement of any such proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Indebtedness, whether or not a claim for such interest would be allowed) before the Holder of this Note shall be entitled to receive any payment; and

(b) until the Senior Indebtedness of the Company is paid in full in cash, any payment or distribution to which the Holder of this Note would be entitled but for the subordination provisions of this Note shall be made to holders of such Senior Indebtedness as their interests may appear, except the Holder of this Note may receive and retain Permitted Junior Securities; and

(c) if a distribution is made to the Holder that, due to the subordination provisions, should not have been made to it, the Holder is required to hold it in trust for the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company and pay it over to them as their interests may appear.

The Company shall not pay principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this Note (or pay any other obligations relating to this Note, including fees, costs, expenses, indemnities and rescission or damage claims) and may not purchase, redeem or otherwise retire any Notes (collectively, “pay the Notes”) (except that the Holder of this Note may receive and retain Permitted Junior Securities), if either of the following occurs (a “Payment Default”):

(a) a default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company occurs and is continuing or any other amount owing in respect of any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company is not paid when due, or

(b) any other default on Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company occurs and the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company is accelerated in accordance with its terms,

unless, in either case, the Default has been cured or waived and any such acceleration has been rescinded or such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash; provided,

however, that the Company shall be entitled to pay this Note without regard to the foregoing if the Company receives written notice approving such payment from the Representatives of all Designated Senior Indebtedness with respect to which the Payment Default has occurred and is continuing.

During the continuance of any default (other than a Payment Default) (a “Non-Payment Default”) with respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated without further notice (except such notice as may be required to effect such acceleration) or the expiration of any applicable grace periods, the Company shall not pay this Note (except in the form of Permitted Junior Securities) for a period (a “Payment Blockage Period”) commencing upon the receipt by the Company of written notice (a “Blockage Notice”) of such Non-Payment Default from the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness specifying an election to effect a Payment Blockage Period and ending 179 days thereafter. With respect to Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, a Blockage Notice may be given only by the administrative agent thereunder unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the requisite lenders named therein. The Payment Blockage Period shall end earlier if such Payment Blockage Period is terminated (i) by written notice to the Company from the Person or Persons who gave such Blockage Notice; (ii) because the default giving rise to such Blockage Notice is cured, waived or otherwise no longer continuing; or (iii) because such Designated Senior Indebtedness has been repaid in full in cash.

Notwithstanding the provisions described in the immediately preceding paragraph (but subject to the provisions contained in the first paragraph of this Section 6.3 and Section 6.2 hereof), unless the holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness or the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have accelerated the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness or a Payment Default exists, the Company shall be permitted to resume paying this Note after the end of such Payment Blockage Period (including any missed payments). This Note shall not be subject to more than one Payment Blockage Period in any consecutive 360 day period, irrespective of the number of defaults with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness during such period; provided that if any Blockage Notice is delivered to the Company by or on behalf of the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company (other than the holders of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement), a Representative of holders of Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement may give another Blockage Notice within such period. However, in no event shall the total number of days during which any Payment Blockage Period or Periods on the Note is in effect exceed 179 days in the aggregate during any consecutive 360 day period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no default or event of default that existed or was continuing on the date of commencement of any Payment Blockage Period with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness initiating such Payment Blockage Period shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Period by the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness whether or not within a period of 360 consecutive days unless such default shall have been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days (it being acknowledged that any subsequent action, or any breach of any financial covenants during the period after the date of delivery of a Blockage Notice, that, in either case, would give rise to a Non-Payment Default pursuant to any provisions of the Designated Senior Indebtedness under which a Non-Payment Default previously existed or was continuing shall constitute a new Non-Payment Default for this purpose).

If payment of this Note is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify the holders of the Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company or the Representative of such Designated Senior Indebtedness of the acceleration; provided that any failure to give such notice shall have no effect whatsoever on the provisions of this Article VI. If any Designated Senior Indebtedness of the Company is outstanding, the Company may not pay this Note until five Business Days after the Representatives of all the issuers of such Designated Senior Indebtedness receive notice of such acceleration and, thereafter, may pay this Note only if this Note otherwise permits payment at that time.

If a distribution is made to the Holder that, due to the subordination provisions, should not have been made to it, the Holder is required to hold it in trust for the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and pay it over to them as their interests may appear.

After all Senior Indebtedness of the Company is paid in full and until this Note is paid in full, the Holder shall be subrogated to the rights of holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive distributions applicable to such Senior Indebtedness. A distribution made under this Article VI to holders of such Senior Indebtedness which otherwise would have been made to the Holder is not, as between the Company and the Holder, a payment by the Company on such Senior Indebtedness.

This Article VI defines the relative rights of the Holder and holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company. Nothing in this Note shall:

(a) impair, as between the Company and the Holder, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of and interest on this Note in accordance with its terms;

(b) prevent the Holder from exercising its available remedies upon a Default, subject to the rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company to receive payments or distributions otherwise payable to the Holder and such other rights of such holders of Senior Indebtedness as set forth herein; or

(c) affect the relative rights of the Holder and creditors of the Company other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Indebtedness.

No right of any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Company to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or by their failure to comply with this Note.

Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company, the distribution may be made and the notice given to their Representative (if any).

SECTION 6.10 Article VI Not To Prevent Events of Default or Limit Right To Accelerate.

The failure to make a payment pursuant to this Note by reason of any provision in this Article VI shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Default. Nothing in this Article VI shall have any effect on the right of the Holder to accelerate the maturity of the Note.

Upon any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article VI, the Holder shall be entitled to rely (a) upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which any proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 6.2 hereof are pending, (b) upon a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution to the Holder or (c) upon the Representatives of Senior Indebtedness of the Company for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article VI.

SECTION 6.12 Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company on Subordination Provisions.

The Holder by accepting this Note acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Notes, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Company may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Holder, without incurring responsibility to the Holder and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article VI or the obligations hereunder of the Holder to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Company, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Indebtedness of the Company, or, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Note, otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness of the Company or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness of the Company is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness of the Company;

(iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of Senior Indebtedness of the Company; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person.

(a) The Holder may Transfer all or any portion of this Note representing at least $25 million in principal amount, together with all of the Holder’s rights hereunder, but only after December 31, 2008 and only in accordance with this Section 7.1; provided that the Holder may Transfer this Note on or prior to December 31, 2008 as provided above, but in such case, unless such Transfer is to an Affiliate of the Holder, the Holder’s rights under Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.6 through 3.13, inclusive and 4.1 (collectively, the “Limited Covenants”) shall not be transferred. For the avoidance of doubt:

(1) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of a transfer of this Note or any portion thereof on or prior to December 31, 2008 other than to an Affiliate of the Holder, the Company shall have no obligations under the Limited Covenants vis-à-vis the transferee of this Note or such portion thereof and such transferee shall have no rights or remedies with respect to any of the Limited Covenants (or under Section 3.1(b) or Article V in respect thereof);

(2) in connection with any transfer after December 31, 2008 and in accordance with the Section 7.1, the Limited Covenants shall transfer with this Note or portions hereof, and the Company shall continue to have obligations under the Limited Covenants vis-à-vis the transferee of this Note or such portion thereof and such transferee shall have rights or remedies with respect to the Limited Covenants (and under Section 3.1(b) and Article V in respect thereof), in each case, as a Holder of this Note; and

(3) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall any Person other than ConAgra Foods, Inc. and its Affiliates have any rights or remedies vis-à-vis the Company with respect to Section 3.2(d)(ii), and the rights under such Section shall not be transferable other than to an Affiliate of ConAgra Foods, Inc.

(b) Prior to making any Transfer of this Note or a portion hereof (other than to Affiliates of the Holder), the Holder will give written notice (the “Sale Notice”) to the Company. The Sale Notice will disclose in reasonable detail the terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer. The Holder will not consummate any Transfer until 45 days after the Sale Notice has been given to the Company, unless the parties to the transfer have been finally determined pursuant to this Section 7.1 prior to the expiration of such 45-day period. (The date of the first to occur of such events is referred to herein as the “Authorization Date”.)

(c) The Company may elect to purchase this Note (or the same portion thereof) upon the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Sale Notice by delivering a written notice of

such election to the Holder within 30 days after the Sale Notice has been given to the Company. If the Company does not deliver such written notice within such time frame, the Holder may transfer this Note (or the portion hereof specified in the Sale Notice) at a price and on terms no more favorable to the transferee(s) thereof than specified in the Sale Notice during the 60-day period immediately following the Authorization Date. If this Note (or the portion hereof specified in the Sale Notice) is not transferred within such 60-day period, it will be subject to the provisions of this Section 7.1 upon subsequent (or attempted) transfer.

(d) The restrictions set forth in this Section 7.1 shall continue with respect to this Note following any Transfer. If this Note (or a portion hereof) is transferred in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.1, the transferor and transferee shall provide notice to the Company within 10 Business Days of such Transfer, which notice shall specify the date and amount of such Transfer and the identities and addresses of the transferor and transferee, and shall be accompanied by the Note subject to such Transfer. Upon receipt and in exchange for such Note, the Company shall execute and deliver, without service charge, to the transferee a replacement Note (or, in the case of a Transfer in part of this Note, to the transferee a replacement Note in an aggregate principal amount equal to the portion of the aggregate principal amount of this Note so Transferred and to the transferor a replacement Note in an aggregate principal amount equal to the remaining portion of the aggregate principal amount of this Note that is not being Transferred). Such Persons shall execute such replacement Note(s), agreeing to be bound by the provisions thereof. The Company shall maintain a register of the holders of this Note (or any portion hereof) and promptly enter therein all Transfers properly effected pursuant to this Section 7.1.

(e) Except as provided above, any transferee of this Note pursuant to a Transfer in accordance with this Section 7.1 shall, upon notification thereof to the Company in compliance with Section 7.1(d) and entry by the Company of such Transfer in the register described in Section 7.1(d), succeed to all of the rights of the Holder under this Note and shall be deemed to be the Holder for all purposes of this Note as of the date of such Transfer. Any purported transfer of this Note or a portion hereof that does not comply with the provisions of this Section 7.1 (including the required surrender and reissuance thereof) shall be null and void and of no effect.

Any notice or communication by the Company or the Holder to the others is duly given if in writing and delivered in Person or mailed by first class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), telecopier or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to the others’ address:

The Company or the Holder, by notice to the other, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications. Upon a Transfer of this Note or a portion hereof in accordance with Section 7.1 hereof, notices to the Holder shall include notice to the transferee at the address specified in the notice delivered pursuant to Section 7.1(d) hereof or otherwise specified by such transferee by notice to the Company.

All notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; five (5) Business Days after being deposited in the mail (registered, or certified, return receipt requested and postage prepaid), if mailed; when receipt is acknowledged, if telecopied; and the next Business Day after timely delivery to the courier, if sent by overnight air courier guaranteeing next Business Day delivery.

SECTION 7.3 No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders.

No director, officer, employee, incorporator, stockholder, unitholder or member of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its direct or indirect parent companies, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company under this Note or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. The Holder by accepting this Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of this Note. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws, and it is the view of the Commission that such waiver is against public policy.

THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS NOTE.

This Note may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Company or its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Note.

All agreements of the Company in this Note shall bind its successors. Other than in compliance with Article IV, the Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest therein. All agreements of the Holder in this Note shall bind and shall inure to the benefit of Holder and its successors and Permitted Assigns. Nothing in this Note, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and Permitted Assigns) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Note.

In case any provision in this Note shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

The Table of Contents, Cross-Reference Table and Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Note have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of this Note and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Note to be given or taken by the Holder may be embodied in and evidenced by

one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by the Holder in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holder signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Note and conclusive in favor of the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 7.9.

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such officer the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than such signer’s individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such signer’s authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Company deems sufficient.

(c) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder shall bind every future Holder in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon this Note.

The Holder shall hold confidential all non-public information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries and their businesses provided by the Company pursuant to the requirements hereof, it being understood and agreed by the Company that, in any event, the Holder may make (i) to the extent necessary to the administration hereof, disclosures on a confidential basis of such information to Affiliates of the Holder and to their agents and advisors, (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential transferee in connection with the contemplated Transfer of this Note or any portion thereof pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, provided such potential transferee first executes a confidentiality agreement with the Company containing substantially the same terms as this Section 7.10, (iii) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it, provided that such rating agency shall preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries received by it from the Company in accordance with customary market practice, (iv) disclosures necessary for the preservation and enforcement of Holder’s rights hereunder and (v) disclosures required by law, including as requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, the Holder shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Company of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non public information prior to disclosure of such information. Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary in this Section 7.10, each Person otherwise subject hereto may disclose any information relating to the tax treatment and tax

structure of this Note; provided, however, that any information relating to such tax treatment and tax structure shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions in this Section 7.10 to the extent reasonably necessary to enable such Person, their respective Affiliates, and their respective Affiliates’ directors and employees to comply with applicable securities laws. For this purpose, “tax structure” means any facts relevant to the federal income tax treatment of the Note.

(a) Except as provided below in this Section 7.11, this Note may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Company and the Majority PIK Noteholders, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of this Note may be waived with the consent of the Company and the Majority PIK Noteholders (and/or any acceleration of the amounts owing under this Note pursuant to Section 5.2 rescinded and annulled), even if, for the avoidance of doubt, the Holder of this Note does not consent thereto. In connection with any approved amendment of this Note, the Holder of this Note shall promptly surrender the same to the Company for cancellation, and the Company shall upon receipt thereof promptly issue in favor of the Holder an amended Note in exchange therefor, such amended Note to contain the approved amendments but to be on terms otherwise identical to this Note and upon the issue of such amended Note, this Note shall be deemed null and void with no further action required on the part of the Company or the Holder. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 7.11 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the holders of PIK Notes affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

The Majority PIK Noteholders may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Note. However, without the consent of each Holder of a PIK Note affected, an amendment or waiver under this Section 7.11 may not (with respect to any PIK Notes held by a non-consenting Holder):

(i) reduce or forgive or change the time for payment of the principal amount of PIK Notes;

(ii) reduce or forgive the principal of, or change any date fixed for the payment of any amounts in respect of , any PIK Note;

(iii) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any PIK Note;

(iv) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest on, the Note (except a rescission of acceleration of the Note by the Majority PIK Noteholders and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

(v) make any change in the provisions of this Note relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of the Holder of this Note to receive payments of principal of, or interest on, the Note;

(vi) amend, change or modify the obligation of the Company to make and consummate an Offer to Purchase pursuant to Section 3.6(d) in accordance therewith after the obligation to make such an Offer to Purchase has arisen, or the obligation of the Company to make and consummate a Change of Control Offer in the event of a Change in Control in accordance with Section 3.9 after such Change of Control has occurred, including, in each case, amending, changing or modifying any definition relating thereto; provided that, with respect to any amendment, change or modification of Section 3.9 (or any definition relating thereto) prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control, such amendment, change or modification must be approved by Holders of 66²/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the PIK Notes then outstanding; or

(b) Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by the Holder of this Note is a continuing consent by such Holder and every subsequent Holder of a this Note or portion thereof, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Company receives written notice of revocation before the date the Majority PIK Noteholders agree thereto. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds the Holder, even if the Holder has not consented thereto.

(c) The Company may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Note thereafter issued by it, and at the written request of any Holder of a PIK Note shall issue such Holder a replacement PIK Note that reflects the amendment, supplement or waiver. Lack of notation of any such amendment, supplement or waiver, or issuance of a new Note reflecting any such amendment, supplement or waiver, shall not affect the validity and effect of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Note to be duly executed.

THIS AGREEMENT, made this day of , 2008 (the “Effective Date”), by and between ConAgra Trade Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (“CTG”) and ConAgra Foods Food Ingredients Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Supplier”). CTG and Supplier shall be referred to herein individually as “Party” and collectively as “Parties.”

WHEREAS, Supplier owns volumes of Wheat Midds, Red Dog, Pellets and Organic Midds (“Wheat By-Products”) and desires to sell Wheat By-Products to CTG.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals which are incorporated with and are made a part of this Agreement, and in further consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter contained, the Parties hereto agree, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, as follows:

1. PURCHASE OF PRODUCT. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Supplier agrees to sell exclusively to CTG, and CTG agrees to purchase, all Wheat By-Products produced at Supplier Flour Mills. The term “Supplier Flour Mills” shall include those flour mills listed on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein.

A. PRICE. Each Wheat By-Product purchased by CTG shall be priced pursuant to the daily midds bid sheet CTG provides to Supplier (the “Bid Sheet”), except (i) all Wheat By-Products produced in pellet form at CTG’s request shall include a $10.00 per ton upcharge, and (ii) all Red Dog and Organic midds prices will be increased by an amount equal to the then current Red Dog and Organic midds market price spreads and all Red Dog and Organic midds shipments will be applied to midds contracts. Bid Sheets will contain the current market-based bids for midds for each Supplier Flour Mill by month for the next 12 month period and shall be effective until CTG’s next Bid Sheet is provided to Supplier. CTG agrees, at a minimum, to provide an updated Bid Sheet to Supplier daily and CTG reserves the right to update the Bid Sheet on an intraday basis. The purchase price for the Wheat By-Products sold hereunder will be based on the daily bid as listed on the Bid Sheet corresponding to the date of order and shall be set forth in a written confirmation signed by the Parties.

B. LIQUIDITY. Each day, Supplier shall be allowed to price up to one thousand five hundred (1,500) tons per month per Supplier Flour Mill for each of the twelve (12) months listed on the Bid Sheet subject, however, to a total daily maximum of 25,000 tons; provided, however, Supplier may not price more than its aggregate average monthly production (such average based on the monthly production during the twelve (12) month period immediately prior to the date each Bid Sheet is provided to Supplier) at the applicable Supplier Flour Mill for any given month. CTG agrees to make a reasonable attempt to accommodate Supplier’s

additional liquidity and may, in its reasonable discretion, purchase from Supplier volumes in addition to the amounts provided for above; provided, however, the sales will be made via a verbal confirmation of the price and volume from CTG to Supplier, with a written confirmation to follow. The parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to apply all contract volumes evenly over the contracted period.

C. INVOICING, SHIPMENT ORDERS, BILLING AND PAYMENT. CTG and Supplier agree to work together on an ongoing basis to maintain or enhance transaction process efficiencies; including, but not limited to, establishing an automated daily order entry and invoicing process to manage costs for both Supplier and CTG. Supplier shall invoice CTG daily for all Wheat By-Products sold hereunder. The terms of invoice payment shall be net 15 days after invoice date.

3. MARKET INFORMATION. An important component of the service Supplier provides to its flour milling customers is to inform its customers of general market and industry conditions, including information relating to the mill feed industry. Upon Supplier’s request, CTG will provide Supplier with CTG’s general insight and opinions on market, economic and political factors and conditions which may impact or affect the mill feed industry generally.

4. TERM. The term of this Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and shall continue for four (4) years (the “Initial Term”). The term of this Agreement may be extended on a one year basis (the “Renewal Term”) upon mutual written agreement of the parties executed at least one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term.

5. SALES TO THIRD PARTIES. The Parties hereby acknowledge that from time to time a third party may be willing to pay a higher price for a Wheat By-Product than CTG’s price for such Wheat By-Product set forth on the Bid Sheet. Supplier shall have the right to sell such Wheat By-Product to such third party, subject to the following terms:

B. The Wheat By-Product sale is subject to CTG’s right to match the price offered by the third party. Any such sale is subject to CTG’s right, for a period of four (4) hours after notice from Supplier, to match the third-party purchaser’s higher price. If CTG notifies Supplier of its decision to match the third-party purchaser’s price, within such time period, the sale will not be consummated by Supplier to the third-party. CTG’s failure to notify Supplier within four (4) hours of its decision to match the third-party purchaser’s price shall be a waiver of CTG’s right to match the third-party purchaser’s price.

C. At Supplier’s option, CTG will purchase the Wheat By-Product from Supplier and immediately re-sell the Wheat By-Product to the third party at the third party offered price; provided, however, Supplier will continue to be responsible for all credit risk associated with the third party’s payment of the invoice resulting from such sale. The Parties acknowledge and agree that CTG’s facilitation of Supplier’s third party Wheat By-Products sales enhance efficiencies relating to such matters as order scheduling and fulfillment, transportation logistics and the like, with the goal of providing the most competitive flour prices to Supplier’s flour customers.

D. Supplier will reimburse CTG for expenses related to Supplier’s use of a CTG Private Car, where applicable. In the event the shipment of Wheat By-Products is made to a third party in a CTG Private Car, CTG and Supplier agree to calculate freight rates for third party sales based on the tariff rates plus CTG’s reasonably incurred costs associated with the CTG Private Car. CTG will invoice Supplier for such expenses. “CTG Private Car” shall mean any railcar provided by CTG, whether owned, leased, borrowed or contracted.

6. QUALITY. All Wheat By-Products sold and delivered hereunder shall conform to the specifications listed on Exhibit “B” hereto. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 6 AND SECTION 10 BELOW, SUPPLIER MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH REGARD TO THE WHEAT BY-PRODUCTS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. In the event any mill feed used to manufacture Wheat By-Products hereunder is expected to contain vomotoxin levels greater than 5 ppm, then the Parties shall work together in good faith to determine the price to be paid by CTG for such Wheat By-Products.

7. WEIGHTS/GRADES. The Wheat By-Products will be weighed on certified scales in accordance with the applicable procedures and methods of the state in which the Wheat By-Products are loaded. Weights shall be final at the time of loading of the Wheat By-Products on CTG’s transportation carriers at Supplier Flour Mills. The Parties agree that such weights shall govern for purposes of this Agreement and that all invoices shall be settled accordingly; provided, however, in the event that the certified scales are determined to be inaccurate, then appropriate adjustments shall be made and the Parties shall settle on the newly determined accurate weight.

8. SUPPLIER SCHEDULING RESPONSIBILITIES. Supplier agrees to provide to CTG, on a daily basis, the following information to allow CTG to arrange for and make scheduling decisions with respect to transportation carriers: (a) Wheat By-Product inventories; (b) a seven (7) day Wheat By-Product production forecast; and (c) twenty-four (24) hour advance notice of any additions or reductions in Supplier Flour Mill operation and runtime.

A. RISK OF LOSS. All Wheat By-Products purchased hereunder shall be F.O.B. Supplier Flour Mills. Supplier shall be responsible for inspecting all applicable transportation equipment for debris, foreign material or ruminant animal products that are prohibited under applicable laws or industry standards and immediately notify CTG upon the discovery of or suspicion of the presence of such debris. CTG shall be responsible to remove any such contaminants and clean such transportation equipment so it is fit for purposes of transporting the Wheat By-Products or arrange for substitute transportation equipment. CTG agrees to provide transportation equipment that is approved by Supplier and complies with all applicable laws and industry standards. Supplier will be responsible for maintaining all

appropriate inspection records, in a manner consistent with past practice and in accordance with applicable laws. Supplier retains title and risk of loss to the Wheat By-Products until the same are loaded on the transportation equipment supplied by CTG.

B. SUPPLIER LOADING OBLIGATIONS. Supplier shall (i) provide adequate labor and loading hours to accommodate the loading schedule agreed upon by Supplier and CTG and (ii) load all transportation equipment to full visible capacity, not to exceed the maximum legal gross weight limit. In the event the transportation equipment is not loaded to capacity, Supplier shall pay that portion of freight charges allocable to the unused capacity of the applicable transportation equipment and shall notify CTG within one (1) business day of the occurrence of such partial load. In the event CTG’s transportation equipment departs from Supplier Flour Mill prior to being loaded to capacity, Supplier will not be liable for the freight charges allocable to the partial load.

C. CTG’S DEMURRAGE OBLIGATIONS. CTG shall be responsible for demurrage that occurs prior to the arrival of CTG’s transportation equipment at the Supplier Flour Mills for receipt of the Wheat By-Products, and after delivery and acceptance of the Wheat By Products by CTG.

D. SUPPLIER’S DEMURRAGE OBLIGATIONS. Supplier shall be solely responsible for demurrage, as applicable, in the following manner: demurrage for the delivery of empty rail cars to the Supplier Flour Mill begins to accrue forty eight (48) hours after the rail car has reached the Supplier Flour Mill provided that the rail car arrives at the Supplier Flour Mill between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding holidays observed by the Chicago Board of Trade, Chicago, Illinois, USA (“Normal Operating Hours”), otherwise demurrage will begin to accrue forty eight (48) hours after the start of Normal Operating Hours following the arrival of the rail car to the Supplier Flour Mill. Demurrage for the delivery of empty trucks to the Supplier Flour Mill begins to accrue after the second (2 ^nd) hour that the truck waits to be loaded at the Supplier Flour Mill provided the truck arrived during Normal Operating Hours.

10. TITLE. Supplier represents and warrants that it has the full right to sell Wheat By-Products to CTG and that it has and will have good title to all Wheat By-Products to be sold and delivered hereunder and that the same shall be free from all liens, claims and encumbrances of whatsoever nature. In the event any of the Wheat By-Products sold to CTG is encumbered in any manner, Supplier agrees to furnish CTG, in a form acceptable to CTG, a sworn statement listing all liens, if any, to which the load of Wheat By-Products is subject, together with authorization and release of liens in a form acceptable to CTG from the person or entity holding a lien on the Wheat By-Products prior to loading of the Wheat By-Products. Supplier agrees to indemnify and hold CTG harmless, in addition to indemnifications listed in Section 13, from any and all costs, damages, claims or expenses, including attorneys’ fees, CTG may incur as a result of Supplier breaching the provisions of this Section 10.

11. INVENTORY HANDLING AND TRANSFERS; RECORDS. CTG’s obligations with respect to inventory handling and records include the following:

A. CTG will arrange for shipping of the Wheat By-Products from Supplier Flour Mills. Supplier shall cooperate with CTG in connection with all such shipments. Supplier shall provide and be responsible for the loading of all Wheat By-Products into the transportation equipment arranged by CTG.

B. CTG agrees to provide Supplier with reasonable logistical and scheduling support to ensure a smooth execution of all loading and shipping activities related to the Wheat By-Products. CTG will also advise Supplier on tracking railcar locations with respect to the transportation of Wheat By-Products as well as estimated arrival times of such transportation equipment to Supplier Flour Mills in an effort to avoid and reduce demurrages and related costs. CTG will also work directly with Supplier’s staff to adjust shipment schedules to production and manage around unexpected increases and decreases in production.

C. CTG agrees to dedicate railcars to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement (“Dedicated Railcars”), with the initial number of Dedicated Railcars detailed on Exhibit “C”. CTG shall update Exhibit “C” on a quarterly basis during the Initial and any Renewal Term of this Agreement and Supplier’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Dedicated Railcars shall be to those Dedicated Railcars reflected on the most recently updated version of Exhibit “C”. If Supplier breaches any of its obligations under this Agreement, fails to cure such breaches as set forth herein, and such uncured breach causes CTG to be unable to fulfill its lease obligations with respect to the Dedicated Railcars, Supplier shall be responsible for any resulting damages during the Term of this Agreement relating to the Dedicated Railcars which are solely and directly due to such uncured breach including, but not limited to, Supplier’s assumption of the Dedicated Railcar leases at market prices. If CTG breaches any of its obligations under this Agreement and fails to cure such breaches as set forth herein, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Supplier hereunder in connection with such breach, CTG shall assign to Supplier the Dedicated Railcar leases at market prices and Supplier shall assume CTG’s obligations under such Dedicated Railcar leases which accrue from and after the date of assignment.

D. CTG agrees to take delivery of the Wheat By-Products according to the terms provided in this Agreement. In the event CTG’s failure to take delivery for the Wheat By-Products solely and directly causes a Supplier Flour Mill to shut down, CTG shall pay Supplier $2,000 per hour of such shutdown.

12. CTG’s WARRANTY. CTG warrants that it will sell the Wheat By-Products purchased from Supplier Flour Mills exclusively to customers who operate in whole or in part as animal feed processors. CTG makes no warranty beyond that stated herein and makes no warranty as to any subsequent sales by any of its customers or affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as between Supplier and CTG, CTG shall be solely liable for any breaches of this provision by CTG’s customers and shall indemnify Supplier from any and all claims, losses, costs and expenses asserted against Supplier relating to sales of Wheat By-Products outside animal feed channels.

13. SUPPLIER’S INDEMNITY. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Supplier shall indemnify, defend and hold CTG and its officers, directors, employees and agents

harmless, from any and all losses, liabilities, damages, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), costs, claims, and demands that CTG or its officers, directors, employees or agents may suffer, sustain or become subject to, or result from or arise in connection with (a) any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, covenant or agreement of Supplier contained herein or (b) Supplier’s negligence or willful misconduct. In connection with the foregoing, Supplier agrees to maintain in force and effect, during the term of this Agreement, commercial and general liability insurance coverage, including products liability, with an insurance carrier that maintains an A.M. Best rating of “A” or better, with CTG named as an additional insured for claims arising from Supplier’s negligence with minimum limits of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) per occurrence. Supplier shall furnish CTG with a certificate of such insurance within thirty (30) days and will require insurer to notify CTG thirty (30) days in advance of any cancellation or adverse change in coverage.

Wheat By-Products as defined by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (“AAFCO”) industry standards with the following specifications:

THIS GRAIN STORAGE AND HANDLING AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) dated , 2008 (the “Commencement Date”) is between CONAGRA FOODS FOOD INGREDIENTS COMPANY, INC., a Delaware corporation (“ConAgra”) and CONAGRA TRADE GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation (“CTG”).

WHEREAS, ConAgra is the owner of a flour mill located in Saginaw, Texas, which requires a consistent supply of grain for ConAgra’s operations; and

WHEREAS, to establish the necessary supply of grain for its flour mill, an affiliate of ConAgra purchased a grain elevator located in Saginaw, Texas, on real property more particularly described on the attached Exhibit “A” (the “Elevator”), which Elevator is adjacent to and connected with ConAgra’s flour mill; and

WHEREAS, such affiliate subsequently transferred and conveyed legal title to the Elevator to CTG which, prior to the date hereof, was also an affiliate of ConAgra; and

WHEREAS, CTG provided ConAgra with grain storage and handling services at the Elevator; and

WHEREAS, on the date hereof, ownership and control of CTG was transferred and conveyed to , an entity unrelated to ConAgra, and

WHEREAS, as ConAgra and CTG are now unrelated entities, each party desires to enter into this Agreement relating to the grain storage and handling services at the Elevator to be provided to ConAgra by CTG on a basis consistent with past practices.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and the mutual covenants and agreements herein set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, ConAgra and CTG hereby covenant and agree as follows:

1. Elevator. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, CTG agrees to provide to ConAgra up to seven million (7,000,000) total bushels of grain storage space at the Elevator. Thereafter, at least thirty (30) days prior to the first day of each calendar quarter during the Initial Term and any Renewal Term of this Agreement (“Calendar Quarter”), ConAgra shall advise CTG in writing of ConAgra’s total bushels of grain storage space it requires at the Elevator during said Calendar Quarter; provided, however, without CTG’s prior consent, in no event shall ConAgra be entitled to more than seven million (7,000,000) total bushels of grain storage space at the Elevator during any Calendar Quarter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event ConAgra requests additional storage space at the Elevator during any Calendar Quarter, and CTG has such space available, CTG shall make such additional space available to ConAgra during such Calendar Quarter subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. All grain stored at the Elevator for ConAgra under this Agreement shall at all times be identity-preserved. All grain unloaded and stored at the Elevator by ConAgra shall at all times remain the sole and exclusive property of ConAgra.

3. Put Through Services. CTG agrees to provide all labor and equipment necessary to put ConAgra’s grain through the Elevator and to perform other standard put through services as reasonably requested by ConAgra, all on a basis consistent with the put through services at the Elevator provided by CTG to ConAgra prior to the date hereof. The put through services provided hereunder by CTG shall be on a gross-in, gross-out basis in respect to wheat dockage. ConAgra acknowledges that the Elevator is designed to accommodate only certain types of trucks and railcars. ConAgra agrees to deliver grain to the Elevator via trucks and railcars for which the Elevator is designed. Throughout the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, CTG shall have the right to reject delivery of any grain which CTG reasonably finds in non-warehousable condition (as established in the grain warehouseman’s industry).

4. Truck and Car Unloading and Loading. ConAgra shall pay to CTG $.025 per bushel for each bushel of grain unloaded into the Elevator from shuttle train railcars, $.04 per bushel for each bushel of grain unloaded from trucks or non-shuttle train railcars, and another $.025 per bushel for each bushel of grain loaded out of the Elevator to shuttle train railcars and $.03 per bushel for each bushel loaded out to trucks or non-shuttle train railcars. Additionally, 100% of the incentive payments to either CTG or ConAgra from what is commonly known as the Origin Efficiency Program of Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad Company (such company, “Railroad”) and 100% of the incentive payments to either CTG or ConAgra from what is commonly known as the Railroad’s Destination Efficiency Program for any grain loaded into the Elevator from rail or loaded onto rail from the Elevator shall be paid over to or retained by CTG. With respect to any train re-loading incentive payments paid by Railroad to either ConAgra or CTG for grain loaded out to railcars at the Elevator immediately following delivery of grain to the Elevator from such railcars, all such incentive payments shall be divided equally if both parties participate in either unloading or loading (i.e., each party hereto either takes ownership of the grain unloaded from such train or owns some portion of the grain loaded onto such train) the train. If either ConAgra or CTG unload and subsequently reload the same unit train (i.e., if all grain unloaded from the train is purchased by one party hereto and all grain loaded onto such train is owned by such party), 100% of the re-load incentive will accrue to the respective party. Accounts will be reconciled and settled at the end of the month in which either party receives the incentive. Railcars and trucks shall be unloaded in the order received at the Elevator. CTG shall guarantee the unloading of up to fifty (50) cars/day with prior approval from CTG in any seven (7) day period with no demurrage for the account of ConAgra so long as CTG has an agreement in place with Railroad under which no demurrage is charged to CTG for trains delivered to the Elevator as long as CTG meets certain average unloading requirements at the Elevator as set forth in such agreement. CTG shall receive a five (5) day pre-advice on all inbound billed non-shuttle railcars to the Elevator. All 110-car shuttle trains must be pre-approved by CTG and in addition to the incentive payment allocation set forth above, CTG shall

receive all other destination unload incentives. CTG will use commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate shuttle trains and will not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval. If ConAgra has obtained CTG’s prior approval for a shuttle train or has given CTG five (5) day pre-advice on any other train, then demurrage for any such train will be for the account of CTG. In the event that CTG is unable to take a shuttle train after having given prior approval or unable to take any other train after five (5) day pre-advice from ConAgra, then ConAgra shall not be obligated to pay the storage fee under Section 10 below with respect to the total bushel volume of the unit train not taken by CTG. CTG shall be responsible for all demurrage charges in connection with the activities contemplated under this Agreement except ConAgra shall be responsible for demurrage that occurs prior to the arrival of ConAgra’s transportation equipment at the Elevator for delivery of ConAgra grain.

5. Turning, Conditioning, Blending and Transfers. CTG shall turn and condition grain within bins and transfer and blend grain between bins as requested by ConAgra. ConAgra shall select the bins to be used as a result of the turning, conditioning, blending or transferring of the grain. Turning and conditioning within bins and transfers and blending between bins shall be charged at a rate of $.025 per affected bushel for each turn or transfer. CTG will notify ConAgra’s appointed contact of grain temperatures and quality (including a description reasonably acceptable to ConAgra) on a weekly basis.

6. Capital Expenditures. Attached hereto as Exhibit “C”, is a list of all equipment owned by ConAgra which is located at the Elevator and a list of all capital expenditure projects currently in progress at the Elevator for the benefit of ConAgra’s Saginaw flour mill (the “Projects”). ConAgra shall be responsible to complete the Projects, and CTG shall provide ConAgra, its contractors and subcontractors reasonable access to the Elevator in order to complete the Projects. In addition, during the Initial Term and any Renewal Term of this Agreement, CTG shall allow ConAgra to undertake any reasonable capital project at the Elevator for the benefit of ConAgra’s Saginaw flour mill, on terms and conditions to be mutually agreed upon by the parties. ConAgra shall be responsible for its contractors’ and subcontractors’ actions while at the Elevator and will instruct its contractors and subcontractors to observe CTG’s written rules and regulations while at the Elevator.

7. Shrinkage on Inventory. CTG shall be entitled to take a shrink of ..25% on all inbound bushels of grain, without regard to actual shrink, as compared to the bushels of grain loaded out. Shrink during transport to the Elevator is handled in accordance with Section 8 below. All inbound shipments of grain by ConAgra (including all rail/shuttle shipments) shall be settled at the destination (Elevator) scale. If non-shuttle train grain or truck grain is purchased on the basis of origin weights, any differential between origin weights and destination weights shall be for ConAgra’s account.

8. Weights and Grades. CTG will accept first official certified weights on all incoming shuttle train grain as defined by the National Grain & Feed Association trade rules. If ConAgra desires certified weights and grades, an official inspection and certification will be done by a mutually agreed upon inspection agency. House standard weighing and certification charges are included in the unloading charges set forth above. Any cost of official inspections or certified weights is the responsibility of ConAgra. Charges for house truck weighing and grading are included in the put through price. ConAgra shall have the right to use the Elevator’s truck scale 24 hours per day, 365 days per year for an annual fixed fee of $2,000.00 per year. In addition, ConAgra shall have the right to unload trucks of grain at the Elevator during the same days and hours that CTG unloads trucks of its grain at the Elevator but in all events, ConAgra shall have the right to unload trucks of grain at the Elevator during normal business hours, five (5) days per week and during such extended business hours at the Elevator during harvest season.

9. Inventory Reports. CTG shall provide daily inventory bin reports based upon inbound ConAgra grain received and outbound ConAgra grain transferred the previous day. In addition, CTG shall provide ConAgra with monthly inventory reports based upon soundings of the bins in which ConAgra’s grain is stored. ConAgra shall pay all taxes and assessments of whatever nature levied or assessed against ConAgra’s grain at the Elevator.

10. Storage Charges. Storage charges of $.02 per bushel per month will be charged to ConAgra for each bushel of storage space at the Elevator reserved by ConAgra pursuant to the terms of Section 1 above.

11. Fumigation. CTG shall fumigate ConAgra’s grain as requested by ConAgra or as determined to be necessary by CTG. Insect infestation control shall be the responsibility of CTG. Fumigation of ConAgra’s grain will be charged to ConAgra at a rate of $.015 per bushel fumigated in addition to terms of Section 5. CTG shall notify ConAgra when an insect infestation of ConAgra’s grain is occurring.

12. Payment. All amounts due hereunder shall be paid by ConAgra to CTG within twenty five (25) days following ConAgra’s receipt of CTG’s invoice therefor. CTG shall invoice ConAgra for payments due hereunder on a monthly basis in arrears.

13. Quality. ConAgra grain loaded out of the elevator by CTG shall be the same quality as ConAgra grain when loaded in the elevator.

14. Right of First Refusal. CTG hereby grants to ConAgra the right of first refusal for any sale contract for grain at the Elevator (each, a “Contract”) into which CTG proposes to enter during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term. ConAgra shall have four (4) hours after verbal notice from CTG of a proposed Contract during which ConAgra may exercise its right to enter into the Contract with CTG. If ConAgra fails to exercise its right to enter into the Contract within such time period, then CTG shall have the right to enter into the Contract, provided the right of first refusal will remain in effect for such subsequent proposed Contracts during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term.

17. Elevator Operations. Without first obtaining ConAgra’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, CTG will not use the Elevator to support or service any business operation unrelated to grain or by-product supply located or to be located near or adjacent to the Elevator, or use its property comprising the Elevator, in any manner which would materially impact the flour milling operations at Saginaw (e.g., any adverse impact on sanitation, rodent or pest control; increase in noise, air, smoke or dust emissions, etc.).

18. Assignment, Sublease, Sale or Mortgage. This Agreement shall not be assigned or transferred by either party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, which consent may be withheld for any reason. Provided, however, in the event of any assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or change of control of either ConAgra’s Saginaw, Texas flour mill or the flour milling division of ConAgra to any third party, then ConAgra shall have the right to assign this Agreement and its rights hereunder to such third party without CTG’s consent. In addition, in the event of any assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or change of control at either the Elevator or CTG to any third party, then CTG shall require such third party to assume this Agreement and all of CTG’s obligations hereunder.

20. Damage or Destruction to Premises. Without affecting any other rights or remedies, ConAgra and CTG each hereby release and relieve the other, and their respective officers, employees, and agents and waive their entire right to recover damages against the other, for loss of or damage to its property arising out of or incident to the perils required to be insured against herein. If the Elevator or any portion thereof in which ConAgra’s grain is stored shall be damaged or destroyed to such an extent that in the opinion of ConAgra or CTG, the Elevator or the portion of thereof in which ConAgra’s grain is stored cannot economically be used for the storage and elevation of grain, the parties shall cooperate to identify another portion of the Elevator in which ConAgra’s grain may be stored until CTG can repair the damaged bins. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, and CTG shall proceed with reasonable diligence to repair the damaged bins. If the parties cannot agree on the other portion of the Elevator to be used (neither party shall unreasonably object to alternate portions proposed by the other party) then the parties shall implement the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Section 23.9 below.

22. Right of First/Last Negotiation to Purchase. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 18 above, if, during the Initial Term or any Renewal Term of this Agreement, CTG desires to sell all or a portion of its fee interest in the Elevator to any third party (a “Transaction”), then CTG shall, before entering into negotiations or agreeing to any Transaction, give written notice to ConAgra of such Transaction and afford ConAgra the opportunity to make an offer to purchase the Elevator and CTG shall enter into good faith negotiations with ConAgra to sell and convey the Elevator to ConAgra. If CTG and ConAgra shall fail to enter into a written agreement providing for the sale of the Elevator to ConAgra within ninety (90) days after the date of CTG’s written notice to ConAgra, CTG may thereafter negotiate the Transaction for a price, and upon terms and conditions which are not materially different nor materially more favorable to the third party purchaser than those terms and conditions offered to ConAgra or negotiated by ConAgra and CTG. Prior to entering into any agreement relating to any Transaction, CTG must first provide ConAgra not less than thirty (30) days notice in writing that it has negotiated in principle a Transaction, in either event setting forth the name and address of the third party, and the price, terms and conditions relating to the sale of such interest, and ConAgra shall have the right to purchase the interest in question at the same price and on the same terms and conditions negotiated with such third party, it being understood that in the event ConAgra does not give notice of its intention to purchase the interest in question within said period, this Agreement, and all of its terms and conditions, including the rights set forth in this Section 22, shall remain in full force and effect and CTG and any purchaser or purchasers of the interest in question shall each be bound thereby, and in the event that the Transaction is not completed for any reason, ConAgra shall have, on the same condition and notice, the continuing rights set forth in this Section 22.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto, have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

The fees due CTG under Sections 4, 5, 8, 10 and 11 of this Agreement shall be adjusted at the times set forth in Section 2.2 of the Agreement by the percent changes (whether up or down) in the Bureau of Labor and Statistics Producer Price Index for General Warehousing and Storage. Should the Bureau of Labor and Statistics cease reporting the Producer Price Index for General Warehousing and Storage, then the adjustments shall be based on the percentage changes in the Bureau of Labor and Statistics Producer Price Index for Finished Goods using the same base and end months.

7. Prime Lease Costs. If Sublessor shall be charged for additional rent or other sums pursuant to the provisions of the Prime Lease, Sublessee shall be liable for 36.98% (the “Sublessee’s Percentage”) of such additional rent or sums. If Sublessee shall procure any services from the building or the Prime Landlord, Sublessee shall pay for the same at the rates charged therefor by the Prime Landlord and shall make such payment to Sublessor or the Prime Landlord, as Sublessor shall direct. Sublessor shall provide Sublessee with copies of Prime Landlord’s invoice for all charges submitted to Sublessee for payment pursuant to this Section 7.

(a) Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor as additional rent, at the same time installments of Monthly Rent are due, an amount equal to 1/12th of Sublessee’s Percentage of all Operating Expenses. On or before the Commencement Date and on or after January 1 of each calendar year subsequent to the Commencement Date, Sublessor will notify Sublessee of Sublessor’s estimate of the Operating Expenses payable by Sublessee for the current calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of said Operating Expenses are solely attributable to Sublessee, the Subleased Premises or Sublessee’s use of the Subleased Premises, Sublessee shall pay all of said Operating Expenses in full.

(b) As further additional rent, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor, at the same time installments of Monthly Rent are due, an amount equal to 1/12th of Sublessee’s Percentage of all Service Expenses. On or before the Commencement Date and on or after January 1 of each calendar year subsequent to the Commencement Date, Sublessor will notify Sublessee of Sublessor’s estimate of the Service Expenses payable by Sublessee for the current calendar year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of said Services Expenses are solely attributable to Sublessee, the Subleased Premises or Sublessee’s use of the Subleased Premises, Sublessee shall pay all of said Services Expenses in full after receipt of an invoice together with reasonable back-up documentation.

(c) On or after January 1 of each calendar year subsequent to the Commencement Date, Sublessor will notify (the “Accounting Notice”) Sublessee of the amount of any additional rent due from Sublessee, on account of the difference between the additional rent paid by Sublessee for the preceding calendar year and the actual additional rent for the preceding calendar year due pursuant to Sections 8(a) and (b) herein. Sublessee shall, upon receipt of the Accounting Notice, pay to Sublessor the balance of the additional rent due from Sublessee for the preceding calendar year. If Sublessor’s estimate of additional rent is more than the actual additional rent for any calendar year the amount of such excess paid by Sublessee shall be credited against the next installments of Monthly Rent as they become due. In the event the term of this Sublease or any extension or renewal hereof ends on a day other than the last day of a month, the amount of additional rent payable by Sublessee for such partial month shall be prorated on the basis of a 30 day month. Notwithstanding that this Sublease has terminated, the amount of any additional rent due hereunder shall be payable promptly upon receipt of a statement from Sublessor which shall include copies of back-up documentation received by Sublessor from the Prime Landlord, and conversely any credit due Sublessee for any excess additional rent actually paid shall be promptly refunded after Sublessor’s calculation thereof, subject to Sublessor’s right to apply any credit due Sublessee against any sums due Sublessor hereunder.

(d) “Operating Expenses” shall be defined as the sum of any and all costs, expenses and disbursements of every kind and character which Sublessor shall incur, pay or become obligated to pay in any calendar year in connection with the operation, maintenance, repair and security of the Building and land upon which the Building is located and all related improvements and appurtenances thereto and compliance with the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease, which shall include but not be limited to the following: real estate taxes and assessments; rent taxes; gross receipts taxes; water and sewer charges; insurance premiums; license, permit and inspection charges; utilities; service contracts; labor; management of the Building; air conditioning and heating; elevator maintenance; supplies; materials; equipment; tools; security; garbage service; maintenance and upkeep costs of all parking areas, drives, lawns, trees, shrubbery and common areas; snow removal; and the cost of contesting by appropriate proceedings increases in real estate taxes and assessments and the applicability to, or the validity of, any statute, ordinance, rule or regulation affecting the Building or land which might increase operating expenses. “Operating Expenses” shall not include: the cost of capital improvements; expenses for repairs, replacements, and general maintenance paid by proceeds from insurance; alterations attributable solely to tenants of the Building other than Sublessee; depreciation; and leasing commissions.

(e) “Service Expenses” shall be defined as the sum of any and all costs, expenses and disbursements of every kind and character which Sublessor shall incur, pay or become obligated to pay in any calendar year in connection with mail services, private telephone switchboard (PBX), and security services supplied to the Building. “Service Expenses” shall not include the cost of any postage, shipping or third-party courier services. Service Expenses shall also include the cost of coffee provided by Sublessor at the Subleased Premises and a proportionate allocation of the cost of coffee provided at the Building cafeteria.

9. Prime Lease. This Sublease is subject and subordinate to the Prime Lease. All the terms, covenants and conditions in the Prime Lease shall be applicable to this Sublease and the terms hereof solely with respect to the Subleased Premises with the same force and effect as if Sublessor were the landlord under the Prime Lease and Sublessee were the tenant thereunder, but

not including the obligation to pay “Basic Rent” as provided in Article 4.1 of the Prime Lease and the obligation to carry insurance as provided in Articles 8.1 and 8.2(b) of the Prime Lease.

Sublessee shall be required to comply with Articles 11.1 and 11.2 of the Prime Lease only to the extent applicable to Sublessee’s use of the Subleased Premises. In case of any breach hereof by Sublessee, Sublessor shall have all the rights against Sublessee as would be available to the landlord against the tenant under the Prime Lease if such breach were by the tenant thereunder after written notice and the expiration of any applicable grace period provided in the Prime Lease.

10. Insurance. Sublessee shall carry the same commercial general liability insurance required under Section 8.2(a) of the Prime Lease which shall be applicable to this Sublease with the force and effect as if Sublessor were the landlord under the Prime Lease and Sublessee were the tenant thereunder.

Upon request by Sublessee and at Sublessee’s expense, Sublessor shall place Sublessee’s name on the door at main entrance of the Building. No other signs on the exterior or interior of the Building may be erected by the Sublessee. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 26.1 of the Prime Lease, Sublessee may not make any alterations or improvements to the Subleased Premises without first obtaining Sublessor’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and otherwise complying with the requirements of the Prime Lease. Provided, however, Sublessee may reconfigure cubicles and furniture located within the Subleased Premises so long as Sublessee does not permanently modify any such cubicles or furniture and Prime Landlord’s consent is not required for such alterations. If Sublessee desires to move any cubicles, the same shall be done under Sublessor’s direction but at Sublessee’s sole cost, including the cost of routing or re-routing any electrical, phone or data cables.

12. Services Provided by Prime Landlord. Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, the only services or rights to which Sublessee is entitled hereunder are those to which Sublessor is entitled under the Prime Lease and for all such services and rights, Sublessee will look only to the Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease.

16. Indemnity. Each party shall indemnify and hold the other party harmless from and against all claims of any kind whatsoever by reason of any breach or default of this Sublease on the part of the breaching party or any breach under the Prime Lease caused by such party. This indemnity shall exclude consequential damages except to the extent expressly included by the terms and conditions of this Sublease or recoverable by the Prime Landlord under the Prime Lease.

17. Condition of Subleased Premises. Sublessee hereby accepts the Subleased Premises in their current “as is” condition. Upon the expiration or termination of the term of this Sublease, Sublessee shall quit and surrender the Subleased Premises “broom clean”, in the same condition as on the Commencement Date, ordinary wear and tear and insured casualty excepted, and Sublessee shall comply in all respects with the provisions of the Prime Lease, as incorporated herein.

The Furniture shall be surrendered to Sublessor at the termination of this Sublease. Sublessee agrees that time shall be of the essence with respect to Sublessee’s obligation to surrender possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublessor upon the termination of the term of this Sublease, and further agrees that in the event that Sublessee does not promptly surrender possession of the Subleased Premises to Sublessor upon such termination, Sublessor, in addition to any other rights and remedies Sublessor may have against Sublessee for such holding over, shall be entitled to bring summary proceedings against Sublessee, and Sublessee agrees to reimburse Sublessor for Sublessor’s damages, consequential (only to the extent Sublessor is liable under the Prime Lease) as well as direct, sustained by Sublessor by reason of such holding over, including without limitation, Sublessor’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred in connection with the exercise by Sublessor of its remedies against Sublessee.

(c) Adjustment of Exercise Price Upon Issuance of Additional Units. In the event the Company shall at any time after the Warrant Issue Date issue Additional Units, without consideration or for a consideration or deemed consideration (in either case, determined pursuant to Subsection 5.3(d)) per Unit less than the Fair Market Value, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue, to a price (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth of a cent) determined in accordance with the following formula:

(B) insofar as it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the Fair Market Value thereof at the time of such issue; and

(C) in the event Additional Units are issued together with other units, membership interests or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of such consideration so received, computed as provided in clauses (A) and (B) above and allocated in proportion to the Fair Market Value of each of the Additional Units, other units, membership interests or securities or other assets of the Company provided by the Company in exchange for such consideration.

(ii) Multiple Closing Dates. In the event the Company shall issue on more than one date Additional Units that are a part of one transaction or a series of related transactions and that would result in an adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to the terms of Subsection 5.3(c) above, and such issuance dates occur within a period of no more than 60 days from the first such issuance to the final such issuance, then, upon the final such issuance, the Exercise Price shall be readjusted to give effect to all such issuances as if they occurred on the date of the first such issuance (and without additionally giving effect to any adjustments as a result of any subsequent issuance within such period).

In the case of the return, cancellation or termination of Options exercisable for Convertible Securities, the consideration received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the sum in the immediately preceding sentence, plus, the conversion or exchange price of such Convertible Security.

5.4 Certificate as to Adjustments.

(b) The “Tag-Along Amount” shall mean, with respect to the Holder, an amount of Units bearing a proportion to the Units represented by this Warrant that is equal to the proportion that all of the Units being sold in the transaction giving rise to the Proposed Transferee’s Offer bear to the total number of issued and outstanding Units of the Company.

(c) The Proposed Transferee’s Offer shall be made on the same terms and conditions as those offered to Members holding Units, including the same price per Unit; provided that such terms and conditions shall not require the Holder to (i) agree to any non-competition restrictions, or (ii) provide any indemnification other than on a pro rata basis.

(d) The Holder shall have twenty (20) days from the receipt of the Proposed Transferee’s Offer in which to accept such Proposed Transferee’s Offer. If the Holder accepts the Proposed Transferee’s Offer, the Holder shall exercise a portion of this Warrant representing the number of Units to be purchased pursuant to Proposed Transferee’s Offer based on an Exercise Price as adjusted (with respect to only the Units for which this Warrant is being exercised in connection with such Proposed Transferee’s Offer) pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof. Such exercise and the closing of the sale of the Holder’s Units pursuant to the Proposed Transferee’s Offer shall take place simultaneously with the consummation of the transaction giving rise to the Proposed Transferee’s Offer. If the Holder rejects such Proposed Transferee’s Offer, then, for a period of ninety (90) days following such rejection, the proposed transferee may effect the transaction giving rise to the Proposed Transferee’s Offer on terms and conditions, including the price per Unit, no more favorable than were offered to Holder in the Proposed Transferee’s Offer.

(b) the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall be deemed to occur simultaneously with the Closing of the Drag Transaction, and the Holder shall pay the Exercise Price (as adjusted pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof) by reducing the consideration to be received in respect of the Units by such Exercise Price (but only after reducing such Exercise Price pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, if applicable); and

(c) the terms and conditions of the Drag Transaction shall not require the Holder to (i) agree to any non-competition restrictions, or (ii) provide any indemnification other than on a pro rata basis.

6.3 Adjustment to Exercise Price. In the event of a transaction described in Section 6.1, 6.2 or 6.5 hereof (“Drag/Tag Transaction”), then the Exercise Price shall be the lesser of (a) the then current Exercise Price, or (b) the Exercise Price as calculated below:

(i) If the Drag/Tag Transaction occurs on the first anniversary of the Warrant Issue Date, the Exercise Price shall be the Entry Price multiplied by 1.4;

(ii) If the Drag/Tag Transaction occurs on the second anniversary of the Warrant Issue Date, the Exercise Price shall be the Entry Price multiplied by 1.6;

(iii) If the Drag/Tag Transaction occurs on the third anniversary of the Warrant Issue Date, the Exercise price shall be the Entry Price multiplied by 1.8; and

(iv) If the Drag/Tag Transaction occurs on the fourth anniversary of the Warrant Issue Date, the Exercise Price shall be the Entry Price multiplied by 2.0;

provided, however, that in the event the Drag/Tag Transaction occurs on a date other than an anniversary of the Warrant Issue Date as set forth above, the Exercise Price shall equal the result of the following calculation:

(1) the multiplier set forth in this Section 6.3 with respect to the anniversary date immediately preceding such Drag/Tag Transaction (or one if the Drag/Tag Transaction is prior to the first anniversary of the Warrant Issue Date), plus

(2) 0.2, multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days since the most recent anniversary date (or the Warrant Issue Date, as applicable) and the denominator of which is 365.

6.4 Corporate Reorganization. If the holders of a majority of the Units cause the Company to incorporate the Company, including by (i) the transfer of all of the assets of the Company, subject to the Company’s liabilities, to a newly-formed corporation in exchange for shares of such corporation and the subsequent distribution of such shares to the holders of the Units on a pro rata basis, (ii) conversion of the Company into a corporation pursuant to 6 Del. C. §18-216 (or any successor section thereto) or (iii) Transfer of Units to a newly formed corporation in exchange for shares of such corporation (including by merger of the Company into a corporation) (any transaction of a kind described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Reorganization”), (a) this Warrant shall remain outstanding and shall be exercisable for securities of the successor or surviving company (the “Corporation”) of the type or class received by the holders of Units in connection with such Reorganization and (b) the Warrant

Amount shall be adjusted by multiplying the Warrant Amount immediately prior to such Reorganization by the number of securities issued in respect of each Unit in connection with such Reorganization. In connection with any such Reorganization , the holders of a particular class of securities of the Company shall receive the same form of securities and the same amount of securities per unit of such class and if any holders of a class of securities of the Company are given an option as to the form and amount of securities to be received, each holder of such class of securities shall be given the same option. The Holder shall not be liable for any organizational, legal or accounting expenses or filing fees incurred in connection with such incorporation transaction.

6.5 Initial Public Offering. If following a Reorganization, the Corporation notifies the Holder that it intends to sell shares in a firm underwritten public offering (an “IPO”), the Holder agrees to the exercise of this Warrant in full in connection with such IPO, automatically and without further action by the Holder. The exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 6.5 shall be deemed to occur simultaneously with the closing of the IPO to which it relates, and the Holder shall pay the Exercise Price (as adjusted pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof) pursuant to Section 3.1(b) hereof (but only after reducing such Exercise Price pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof, if applicable); provided that if any of the securities held by the Holder as a result of the exercise of the Warrant are to be sold in the IPO, then the Exercise Price with respect to such securities may be paid by reducing the consideration, if any, to be received by the Holder in respect of such securities being sold in connection with such IPO and remitting the amount of such Exercise Price to the Company.

6.6 Affiliate Transfers. For the avoidance of doubt, any direct or indirect Transfers of Units to a Person who is not an Independent Third Party shall not trigger any tag-along or drag-along rights.

(c) The Company shall assist and cooperate with any Holder required to make any governmental filings or obtain any governmental approvals prior to or in connection with any exercise of this Warrant (including, without limitation, making any filings required to be made by the Company).

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with Drag/Tag Transaction or pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof, the exercise of any portion of this Warrant may, at the election of the Holder, be conditioned upon the consummation of such Drag/Tag Transaction or the initial public offering and in either case such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until the consummation of such transaction.

(e) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Units solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of this Warrant, such number of Units issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. All Units which are so issuable shall, when issued, be duly and validly issued, fully paid and

nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all Units may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which Units may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance). The Company shall not take any action which would cause the number of authorized but unissued Units to be less than the number of such Units required to be reserved hereunder for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant.

This Warrant (as well as any new Warrants issued pursuant to the provisions of this Article X) is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder hereof, at the principal executive office of the Company for any number of new Warrants of like tenor and date representing in the aggregate the right to subscribe for and purchase the number of Units of the Company which may be subscribed for and purchased hereunder.

The Holder of this Warrant represents and warrants by accepting this Warrant as follows:

11.1 Experience; Risk. The Holder has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that such Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the purchase of the Units issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and of protecting the Holder’s interests in connection therewith.

11.2 Investment. The Holder is acquiring this Warrant and the Units issuable upon exercise of this Warrant for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, and the Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The Holder understands that this Warrant and the Units issuable upon exercise of this Warrant have not been registered under the Acts by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Acts which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of such Holder’s representations as expressed herein.

11.3 Restricted Securities; Rule 144. The Holder understands that this Warrant and the Units issuable upon exercise of this Warrant will be “restricted securities” under applicable securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations the Warrant and the Units issuable upon exercise of this Warrant may be resold without registration under the Acts only in certain limited circumstances. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant and the Units issuable upon exercise of this Warrant must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Acts or an exemption from such registration is available. The Holder is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which permit limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement subject to satisfaction of certain conditions.

11.4 No Public Market. The Holder understands that no public market now exists for any of the securities issued by the Company and that there is no assurance that a public market will ever exist for the securities.

11.5 Accredited Investor. The Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act.

12.1 Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient upon delivery, when delivered personally or via facsimile (with delivery confirmation) or by a nationally-recognized delivery service (such as Federal Express or UPS), or forty-eight (48) hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail, as certified or registered mail, with postage prepaid, addressed to the party to be notified at such party’s address as set forth on the signature page hereto or as subsequently modified by written notice.

12.2 Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

(a) This Warrant and any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

(b) No waivers of any term, condition or provision of this Warrant, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.

12.4 Governing Law. This Warrant shall be construed and interpreted according to the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any of the conflicts of laws or choice of law provisions thereof that would compel the application of the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction.

12.5 Covenants to Bind Successor and Assigns. All covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Warrant contained by or on behalf of the Company or the Holder shall bind its permitted successors and assigns.

12.6 Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Warrant shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

12.7 Consent to Jurisdiction. THE COMPANY AND HOLDER HEREBY CONSENT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE COUNTY OF , STATE OF , AND IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS WARRANT, SHALL BE LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS.

12.8 Waiver Of Jury Trial. THE COMPANY AND HOLDER HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS WARRANT. THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THE WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS WARRANT AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THE WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. THE COMPANY AND HOLDER FURTHER WARRANT AND REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

Decline - The receiving party releases the sender of any obligation to continue pursuing the declined transaction with the receiving party.

During the two hour window the party who received the counter offer shall not confirm the transaction with an outside party at a price and other material terms and conditions less favorable to such receiving party than the price and other material terms and conditions contained in the counter offer. The party who received the counter offer is allowed to confirm the business at a price and other material terms and conditions more favorable to such receiving party than the price and other material terms and conditions contained in the counter offer, provided the party who received the counter offer informs the party who proposed the counter offer of the details (price, volume, basis, etc) of the completed transaction unless such party is precluded from disclosing such information due to its confidentiality obligations with the third party.

This letter constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral and written, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This letter agreement may not be modified or amended except by instrument or instruments in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such modification or amendment is sought.

Buyer:		New entities formed and controlled by Ospraie Special Opportunities fund and its affiliates

Business:		Substantially all of ConAgra Foods’ Trading and Merchandising reporting segment, including the stock and various assets of entities involved in domestic and international grain merchandising, fertilizer distribution, agricultural and energy trading and services, and byproducts merchandising and distribution (the “Business”).

		Following the sale, the Business will be operated as Gavilon, LLC.

Price:		Book value plus $600 million. Based on the Business’s unaudited balance sheet as of February 24, 2008, the price would have been approximately $2.1 billion. Due to the book value component of the purchase price, the total proceeds received are subject to change based on actual working capital and asset/liability changes prior to closing.

		ConAgra Foods will receive an additional $39 million at closing if the senior operating cash flow facility made available to Gavilon, LLC at closing is rated less than investment grade.

Financing:		ConAgra Foods will finance $525 million of the purchase price through the receipt of three tranches of debt securities, having scheduled maturities of two, three and four years following closing. The coupon rate on the three tranches are 10.5%, 10.75% and 11%, respectively, and the debt securities permit payment of interest by issuing additional notes. All or part of the notes may be redeemed at any time. The redemption price during the first year is at a price of 92.5% plus interest. Redemption thereafter is at par.

Warrant:		At closing, ConAgra Foods will receive a warrant to acquire an approximate 8% interest in the purchaser of the Business. Key terms of the warrant include a four-year term, exercise price of 200% of the Business purchaser’s initial equity value (subject to reduction in connection with early distributions on equity) and applicability of normal anti-dilution adjustments.

Earnout:		From closing through December 21, 2008, ConAgra Foods is entitled to receive additional amounts equal to 50% of Gavilon, LLC’s profits before tax in excess of $36 million per quarter (pro-rated for partial periods). The earnout is subject to an overall cap. Because pre-closing profits before tax are considered against the cap, ConAgra Foods does not anticipate the total earnout to exceed approximately $50 million. Earnout amounts may be paid in additional three-year pay-in-kind notes with an interest rate of 10.75%.


Closing Conditions:		The purchase agreement is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and availability of the senior operating cash flow facility consistent with the terms of the bank commitments.
