III. MAINTENANCE OF IP

3.1 No Obligation. Parent will have no obligation to Folgers or its Affiliates with respect to maintaining the pendency, subsistence, validity, enforceability, or confidentiality of any Intellectual Property and may discontinue prosecution or maintenance, abandon, or dedicate to the public any of the Intellectual Property.

3.2 Maintenance of Parent IP – Patents. Notwithstanding Section 3.1, if Parent no longer wishes to maintain any Patents included in Parent IP (including any circumstance in which Parent no longer wishes to pay maintenance fees for such Patents) or to pursue continuations or foreign counterparts to such Patents, unless Parent will sell, transfer or otherwise assign such Patent to a Third Party, Parent will notify Folgers of its decision in writing at least forty-five (45) days prior to the earliest filing deadline implicated. Folgers may then elect, by no later than thirty (30) days after receiving such notice from Parent, to have Parent assign its rights in such Patents to Folgers, at no cost other than any actual costs associated with such assignment, so that Folgers, at its sole cost and expense, may continue maintenance and/or pursue continuations and foreign counterparts.

Any Patents assigned pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall become Parent IP subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the license to Folgers and its Affiliates set forth in Section 2.1.

V. RESTRICTIONS

5.1 Restrictions on Folgers’s Use and Disclosure of Know How. Folgers, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, agrees: (i) to keep in confidence and trust all of the Know How licensed to or otherwise received by Folgers or its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) not to use any such Know How for any purpose other than as expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties pertaining to the use of such Know How; (iii) not to do or cause to be done any act or thing contesting or, in any way, impairing or tending to impair such Know How; (iv) to take commercially reasonable steps to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of such Know How and to prevent such Know-How from entering the public domain or the possession of unauthorized Persons; (v) to disclose such Know How only to those of the officers and employees of Folgers or its Affiliates whose duties require access to such Know How in order to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and who are subject to terms of employment that prohibits the unauthorized disclosure of such Know How or have otherwise executed a confidentiality agreement that prohibits the unauthorized disclosure of such Know How; and (vi) not to disclose any such Know How to any consultant, independent contractor, vendor, distributor or other Third Party without first entering into a confidentiality agreement with said Third Party that (1) prohibits use of such Know How other than on behalf of Folgers, (2) prohibits unauthorized disclosure of such Know How, (3) contains obligations requiring such Third Party to protect such Know How that are at least as stringent as Folgers’s obligations of set forth herein, and (4) solely with respect to Third Party competitors of Parent, without the prior written consent of Parent.

5.2 Unauthorized Disclosure Standard.

Notwithstanding any other restriction in this Article V, the Parties agree that if Folgers follows the same practices with respect to any item of Know How as were followed by Parent as of the Distribution Date, both in policy and in practice, Folgers will be deemed to have used commercially reasonable steps to

prevent unauthorized disclosure, with respect to such item of Know-How.

The fact that any or all individual elements of such Know How are publicly known, disclosed to Folgers by a Third Party, or previously known by Folgers, will not be deemed to mean that the particular arrangement of combination of the Know How is not protected under this paragraph, and will not affect the obligations of Folgers hereunder with respect to such Know How.

5.3 Enforcement of Confidentiality Agreements; Cooperation. Folgers hereby acknowledges and agrees that it, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, will diligently monitor compliance with and enforce (including by instituting any necessary Action) the terms of all confidentiality agreements required pursuant to this Article V. Moreover, Folgers will, and will cause its Affiliates to, provide all reasonable cooperation with and assistance to Parent and its Affiliates should Parent or its Affiliates seek to enforce (by Action or otherwise) the terms and conditions of any confidentiality agreement pertaining, as applicable, to any of Parent’s or its Affiliates’ Know How or the Parent Confidential Information.

5.4 Parent IP and SD Restrictive Covenant. Parent and Folgers will not, and will cause their respective Affiliates not to, utilize any of the Parent IP to engage or participate, directly or indirectly, in the Restricted Activities to the extent required under the SD Acquisition Company Restrictive Covenant as if such Persons were Affiliates of Parent subsequent to the Distribution Date.

Parent has the right to settle any such action at its sole discretion, and any recovery of damages will be retained by Parent.

VIII. TERM AND TERMINATION; EFFECT OF TERMINATION

8.1 Term. The term of the license granted to Folgers and its Affiliates pursuant to Article II with respect to each item of Parent IP begins on the Distribution Date and continues in perpetuity unless or until (i) the underlying Intellectual Property expires, is abandoned, or is otherwise found invalid or unenforceable (with no right of appeal) by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) such license is otherwise earlier terminated in accordance with this Article VIII. This Agreement will continue in perpetuity until such time as the license to each item of Parent IP has expired under clause (i) or (ii) above.

8.2 Termination for Breach. Either Party may terminate the license granted under this Agreement as to any item of Parent IP or any Parent Technology Asset, as the case may be, in the event that the other Party or any of its Affiliates is in default or breach of any provision of this Agreement and such default materially affects the scope of such Parent IP or the use of such Parent Technology Asset, or otherwise materially jeopardizes the subsistence, validity or enforceability of such Intellectual Property. In connection with any such termination, the terminating Party will provide written notice to the breaching Party specifying the particular Parent IP and/or Parent Technology Asset(s) at issue and the nature of default or breach. Termination will be effective thirty (30) days after such notice unless the breaching Party or its Affiliate cures the default or breach within such thirty (30) day period. Upon termination pursuant to this Section 8.2, the Parties agree to work together in good faith to tailor the scope of the termination to only such Parent IP or Parent Technology Asset or portion thereof that is materially affected or jeopardized by the uncured default or breach. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon any termination pursuant to this Section 8.2, all other rights and licenses granted under this Agreement, whether to the breaching Party, the terminating Party or their Affiliates, will survive and remain in full force and effect.

8.3 Termination by Licensee. Folgers may terminate any license granted hereunder as to any particular Intellectual Property or Parent Technology Asset as to which it is licensee on thirty (30) days written notice to Parent. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon any termination pursuant to this Section 8.3, all other rights and licenses granted under this Agreement, whether to the

-8-

terminating Party, the non-terminating Party or their Affiliates, will survive and remain in full force and effect.

8.4 Insolvency. Either Party may, without prejudice to any other remedies available to it under this Agreement or at law or in equity, terminate this Agreement upon the filing or institution of bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment of a substantial portion of the assets for the benefit of creditors by the other Party; provided, however, that (i) in the case of any involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or assignment proceeding such right to terminate will only become effective if the Party consents to the involuntary proceeding or such proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the filing thereof, and (ii) if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 8.4, the licenses and rights granted by the non-terminating Party shall survive the termination of the balance of the term of this Agreement.

8.5 Change of Control. If, subsequent to the Effective Time, there is a change of Control of Folgers where (i) Control of Folgers is acquired, directly or indirectly (including by way of acquisition of Control of RMT Partner), in a single transaction or series of related transactions by any competitor of Parent or its Affiliates, (ii) all or substantially all of the assets of Folgers are acquired by any competitor of Parent or its Affiliates, or (iii) Folgers is merged with or into any competitor of Parent or its Affiliates to form a new entity, Folgers and its successor-in-interest will take all necessary steps, to ensure that no Intellectual Property licensed hereunder is utilized by, or disclosed or made available to, any other unit, division or subsidiary of such competitor that competes with Parent in connection with any goods or services outside of the Coffee Field. For clarity, nothing in this Section 8.5 shall be construed as (i) altering or obviating in any way any of Folgers’s and its successor-in-interest’s obligations under Article V, or (ii) conferring on Folgers or its successor-in-interest any rights to make products or provide services other than solely in the Coffee Field. Upon reasonable notice, Parent shall have the right to conduct inspections of and/or interview, and Folgers and its successor-in-interest shall provide Parent with reasonable access to, Folgers’s and its successor-in-interest’s records, facilities, employees and computer systems during Folgers’s and its successor-in-interest’s normal working hours to verify compliance with this Section 8.5.

8.6 Know How. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, each Party (the “Receiving Party”) will, at the option of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”), destroy (and provide a sworn affidavit confirming such destruction within thirty (30) days after the expiration or termination date) or return to the Disclosing Party all records, notes and other documents and materials that contain or embody any of the Disclosing Party’s Know How (including, to the extent applicable, all Parent Technology Assets) in the possession of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement. Upon expiration or termination of any of the licenses granted hereunder with respect to any particular Know How, the Receiving Party will, at the option of the Disclosing Party, destroy (and provide a sworn affidavit confirming such destruction within thirty (30) days after the applicable expiration or termination date) or return to the Disclosing Party all records, notes and other documents and materials that

-9-

contain or embody that particular Know How of the Disclosing Party including, to the extent applicable, Parent Technology Assets) in the possession of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement. Upon reasonable advance written notice during reasonable business hours and in a manner so as to minimize any unreasonable disruption to the business of the Receiving Party, the Disclosing Party shall have the right to conduct inspections of, and the Receiving Party shall provide the Disclosing Party with reasonable access to, the Receiving Party’s records and computer systems during the Receiving Party’s normal working hours to verify the Receiving Party’s compliance with this Section 8.6.

8.7 Termination; Survival. Upon termination of this Agreement, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder will terminate, except that, in addition to any other provisions of this Agreement that by their terms continue after the expiration of this Agreement, the final sentence of Section 2.4, Section 4.2, and the provisions of Articles III and V — X will survive the termination of this Agreement.

IX. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

9.1 Dispute Resolution. Subject to Section 9.2, if a dispute, controversy or claim (“Dispute”) arises between the Parties relating to the interpretation or performance of this Agreement, or the grounds for the termination hereof, the Dispute will be settled in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions (Article VI) of the Separation Agreement.

9.2 Injunctive Relief. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that monetary damages alone are insufficient remedies in the event of a breach of this Agreement by the other Party or its Affiliates, and that such breach may result in irreparable injury to the non-breaching Party, for which damages at law will be inadequate. Therefore, Section 9.1 notwithstanding, each Party agrees that, in the event of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement by such Party or its Affiliates, the other Party shall, in any appropriate forum, have the right to immediately pursue and obtain all preliminary equitable relief, including, without limitation, any temporary restraining order and/or preliminary injunctive relief. If a Party (the “Pursuing Party”) elects to pursue any such equitable remedies, the other Party (the “Challenging Party”) shall not oppose or challenge the granting of such relief on any basis other than (i) whether the Pursing Party’s rights or Intellectual property have been violated, or (ii) whether the Challenging Party has violated the terms of this Agreement. Moreover, the Party pursuing any such equitable remedies shall not be required to post any bond therefor, or if required by law or by a court to post such a bond, each Party consents to the posting of a bond in the lowest amount permitted by law. Such remedies shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for breach of this Agreement, but shall be in addition to and cumulative of all other remedies the Parties may have at law or in equity, including, without limitation, any permanent injunctive relief, specific performance or damages to which the non-breaching Party may be entitled. If either Party violates any of its obligations under this Agreement, the violating Party shall not oppose the granting of equitable relief on the ground that an adequate remedy exists at law.

This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto and, solely to the extent any rights are granted to such Persons hereunder, their Affiliates, and does not confer on Third Parties any remedy, claim, reimbursement, claim of action or other right in addition to those existing without reference to this Agreement.

10.8 Assignment. The licenses granted hereunder to the Parties and their Affiliates are personal to such Parties and Affiliates. No Party will assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement without the written consent of the other Party, except that (i) either Party may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement to a Subsidiary of such Party, provided that the Subsidiary or entity agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and provided further that the assignment or delegation will not relieve any Party of its indemnification obligations or obligations in the event of a breach of this Agreement or (ii) Folgers may assign its rights under this Agreement to any entity acquiring all of the Coffee Business, provided that RMT Partner guarantees the obligations of such entity under this Agreement. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, any attempted assignment or delegation will be void. Upon the Effective Time of the Merger, Folgers, as the surviving corporation in the Merger, will continue to have all of the rights, and be subject to all of the obligations, ascribed to it under this Agreement.

10.9 Construction. The descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a substantive part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement will include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular forms of nouns, pronouns, and verbs will include the plural and vice versa. Reference to any agreement, document, or instrument means such agreement, document, or instrument as amended or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, and if applicable hereof. The use of the words “include” or “including” in this Agreement will be by way of example rather than by limitation. The use of the words “or,” “either” or “any” will not be exclusive. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the Parties acknowledge that (a) Parent and Folgers have been represented by Jones Day in connection therewith and (b) RMT Partner has been represented by Calfee, Halter & Griswold LLP in connection therewith. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed

as if drafted jointly by the Parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, the Separation Agreement, the Transaction Agreement or any Other RMT Agreement (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), any provision herein which contemplates the agreement, approval or consent of, or exercise of any right of, a Party, such Party may give or withhold such agreement, approval or consent, or exercise such right, in its sole and absolute discretion, the Parties hereto hereby expressly disclaiming any implied duty of good faith and fair dealing or similar concept.

10.10 Severability. The Parties agree that (a) the provisions of this Agreement shall be severable in the event that for any reason whatsoever any of the provisions hereof are invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, (b) any such invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable provisions shall be replaced by other provisions that are as similar as possible in terms to such invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable provisions but are valid and enforceable, and (c) the remaining provisions shall remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one Party), each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together will constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement, and any amendments hereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or other electronic transmission, will be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement and will be considered to have the same binding legal effects as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any Party, the other Party will re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to the requesting Party. No Party will raise the use of a facsimile machine or other electronic means to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of facsimile machine or other electronic means as a defense to the formation of a Contract and each such Party forever waives any such defense.

10.12 Relationship Between Parties. The Parties are and will remain at all times independent contractors, and no agency, employment, partnership or joint venture relationship exists between them. Neither Party hereto shall have, or shall represent that it has, any power, right or authority to bind the other Party hereto to any obligation or liability, or to assume or create any obligation or liability on behalf of the other Party.

10.13 Statement of Intent With Respect to Bankruptcy. The Parties acknowledge and agree that all rights and licenses granted under this Agreement with respect to the Parent IP are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, 111 U.S.C. § 101, et seq. (the “Code”), executory contracts and licenses of rights to “intellectual property” as defined in the Code. The Parties intend that Folgers and its Affiliates, as licensees of intellectual property, shall retain and may fully exercise all rights and elections under the Code. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that, in the event of the commencement of bankruptcy proceedings by or against a Parent under the Code, Folgers and its
