CBI is willing to grant to PBI a limited, exclusive and non-transferable license to use CBI proprietary information in the manufacture and sale of certain consumer snack products (“Approved Products”) for the purposes described in and pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement.

CBI is willing to grant a limited, exclusive and non-transferable license to PBI to use the Trademarks for purposes of packaging, advertising and selling the Approved Products pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement; and

PBI desires to obtain the licenses described above under the conditions contained in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1. Definitions. Exhibit B contains a list of defined terms that are used in this Agreement and the definitions for those terms. Any specific dates referenced in this Agreement that fall on a weekend or holiday shall be construed to mean the first business day following such weekend or holiday.

2. Engagement.

(a) License; Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, CBI hereby grants to PBI and its Affiliates the exclusive right, license and privilege to use the Trademarks

during the Term in connection with, and only in connection with, the manufacture, distribution or sale by PBI of the Approved Products.

(b) Term. During the Test Market Term, PBI shall engage in commercially reasonable actions to determine the likelihood of success of the Approved Products. Upon a “successful” Test Market Term, PBI may, at its option, choose to continue the Agreement for the Initial Term. A “successful” Test Market Term shall mean either: (1) that PBI has billed Customers for a total of at least [*] Dollars ($[*]) in Net Sales, and PBI has paid to CBI at least [*] Dollars ($[*]) in Royalty Fees, and PBI Customers have experienced an acceptable sell-through rate for the Approved Products or (2) that PBI Customers have experienced a sell-through rate for the Approved Products that warrants, in PBI’s sole discretion, continuing distribution of the Approved Products. At the conclusion of the Initial Term, PBI may renew this Agreement for the Renewal Term by notifying CBI in writing of such intent within thirty (30) days before the expiration of the Initial Term. PBI shall, at its sole expense, use diligent, good faith efforts to sell, market and promote the Approved Products in the Territory during the Test Market Term, Initial Term and the Renewal Term. Unless specifically stated otherwise in this Agreement, all costs and expenses relating to such marketing activities and strategy shall be borne by PBI.

(c) Minimum Net Sales. Should PBI fail to make the Minimum Net Sales required in any year or to meet its obligations under Section 2(b), PBI, at its option may, within thirty (30) days following such year, or its failure to meet its obligations under Section 2(b), pay to CBI as a Royalty Fee the difference between Earned Royalties based on the actual Net Sales and the Earned Royalties that would have been due based on the Minimum Net Sales required for such year. Should PBI fail to pay such amount to CBI, CBI’s sole and exclusive remedy will be to terminate this Agreement, except that such termination shall not be considered “with cause” under Section 17(b).

(d) Limitations. The Trademarks shall be used by PBI only in connection with the manufacture, distribution or sale of the Approved Products during the Term and may not be used for any other merchandise.

(e) Third Party Manufacturers. Subject to all terms of this Agreement, PBI has the right to authorize Third Party manufacturers to use the Trademarks in the manufacture or creation of the Approved Products and related marketing, distribution, packaging and shipping materials on behalf of PBI or its Affiliates. PBI shall be responsible for requiring its Third Party manufacturers to use the Trademarks and produce the Approved Products such that they satisfy all the requirements of this Agreement.

(f) No Other Right to Licensed Marks. This Agreement conveys to PBI no other rights in the Trademarks or to other intellectual property owned by CBI; nor does this Agreement grant to any other Third Party rights to the Trademarks or to other Intellectual Property owned by CBI.

(g) No Rights Outside Territory. PBI agrees that it possesses no right to sell the Approved Products to exporters or others for resale or reshipment outside the Territory. In the event that PBI becomes aware that any party to whom it sells the Approved Products intends to sell or ship, or is selling or shipping, the Approved Products outside the Territory, PBI shall take actions which are both commercially reasonable and legally permissible to prevent such sales or shipment. In such case, PBI shall indemnify and hold CBI harmless from any damages, subject to paragraph 20 and 14(c) herein, that may result from such action.

(h) CBI Modification of Trademarks. PBI acknowledges that from time to time and without PBI’s approval, CBI may modify certain elements of the Trademarks, add new marks, or discontinue the use of certain Trademarks. Accordingly, CBI does not represent or warrant that the

Trademarks or any of its elements will be maintained or used in any particular fashion. In the event that CBI modifies the Trademarks or creates new Trademarks, this Agreement applies to any such modifications or creations effective upon written notification from CBI; provided, however, that PBI may continue to sell, manufacture and distribute, and shall not be required to destroy or cease using, any Approved Products inventories, raw materials or supplies (including packaging and labeling components thereof that have not yet been consumed) that exist or are part of work in progress as of PBI’s receipt of the notification unless directed otherwise by CBI and CBI agrees to pay all reasonable costs related to destroying or ceasing use of all Approved Products inventories, raw materials or supplies (including packaging and labeling components thereof that have not yet been consumed) that exist or are part of work in progress, and the creation of any and all necessary new artwork. Upon written notification to PBI, which shall be timely and not unreasonably withheld, this Agreement shall automatically include a license to PBI to any such modified or new Trademarks, consistent with the terms stated herein. PBI will have a period of not less than ninety (90) days before CBI shall require PBI to begin use of any modified or new Trademarks.

(i) Trademarks. PBI shall not use any of the Trademarks as part of its corporate or other company names.

3. Transferability. Neither Party shall sell, assign, mortgage, transfer or otherwise encumber this Agreement, to any Third Party, except as expressly approved, in writing, by the other Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, upon prior sixty (60) days written notice to the other Party, a Party may assign or transfer this Agreement to any corporation which is or becomes an Affiliate of such Party, or which survives a merger in which such Party participates, or to any corporation or other person or business entity which acquires all or substantially all of the assets of such Party, provided, however, that the Third Party to whom such assignment is made agrees to comply in full with the obligations hereunder.

14. Indemnification.

(a) By PBI PBI recognizes that CBI has entered into this Agreement relying on the fact that PBI has full responsibility for the sale of the Approved Products for distribution to Customers, including, but not limited to, paying all operating expenses, and that other than the payment of Royalty Fees, any profit or loss from sales of the Approved Products will belong to PBI and not CBI. PBI therefore agrees to hold harmless, indemnify and defend (with legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to CBI and any person or entity claiming through CBI) CBI, its Affiliates and their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, franchisees, successors and assigns (the “CBI Indemnified Parties”) against, and to reimburse the CBI Indemnified Parties for, any and all Claims, either directly or indirectly incurred by or against the CBI Indemnified Parties arising from or out of (i) any breach by PBI of the agreements, covenants, representations, or warranties contained in this Agreement, (ii) any damages or injury to any person or property arising out of PBI’s negligent or wrongful acts or omissions, (iii) the manufacturing, packaging, distribution, storage, sale, advertising or promotion of the Approved Products, or (iv) the unauthorized use or misuse of the Trademarks. PBI shall defend and indemnify CBI from and against all of the above Claims, unless and to the extent such Claims were caused by the acts, omissions or contributory negligence of CBI.

(b) By CBI. CBI recognizes that PBI has entered into this Agreement relying on the fact CBI will grant the licenses described herein and otherwise perform its obligations under this Agreement. CBI therefore agrees to hold harmless, indemnify and defend (with legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to PBI and any person or entity claiming through PBI) PBI, its Affiliates and their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (the “PBI Indemnified Parties”) against, and to reimburse the PBI Indemnified Parties for, any and all Claims, either directly or indirectly incurred by or against the PBI Indemnified Parties arising from or out of (i) any breach by CBI of the agreements, covenants, representations, or warranties contained in this Agreement, (ii) any damages or injury to any person or property arising out of CBI’s negligent or wrongful acts or omissions, (iii) any dispute with Third Parties regarding PBI’s authorized use of Trademarks, or (iv) the Approved

(c) Notice of Claim. With respect to any indemnification obligation under this Agreement, if an indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion of a Claim, which is subject to indemnification hereunder, and the indemnified Party intends to seek indemnification, then the indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice to the indemnifying Party of the Claim. The failure by an indemnified Party to notify the indemnifying Party of a Claim will not relieve the indemnifying Party of any indemnification responsibility under this Agreement, except to the extent the failure, if any, to provide the notice materially prejudices the indemnifying Party to defend the Claim. Upon receipt of such notice, the indemnifying Party shall have the right to exclusively control the defense, compromise or settlement with its own counsel and at its own expense, provided that the prior consent of the indemnified Party shall be required if any settlement may materially impair the indemnified Party’s rights or require payment of monetary compensation. The indemnified Party will be entitled to participate in the defense of any Claim with its own counsel. Any damage, loss, injury, cost or expense indemnified against in this Agreement shall be for actual, out-of-pocket costs of the indemnified Party and shall not include any amount representing loss of profit or loss of business or special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages to the indemnified Party of any nature whatsoever. The indemnities given hereinabove shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

(a) Intellectual Property. Each Party shall return all Intellectual Property belong to the other Party where reasonably feasible, and otherwise shall destroy such Intellectual Property and certify such destruction to the other Party.

(b) Trademarks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PBI shall be entitled, for an additional period of three (3) months following any termination or expiration of this Agreement, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to attempt to deplete inventory and work in process of the Approved Products, and deplete raw materials and Approved Ingredients, existing at the time of the termination or expiration of the Agreement through manufacture and sale of the Approved Product, but on a non-exclusive basis and subject to payment of Royalty Fees on sales during such additional period. Except as provided in the first sentence of this Section, upon any termination or the expiration of this Agreement, PBI shall immediately discontinue all use of the Trademarks and shall no longer have the right to use the Trademarks or any variation or simulation thereof.

(c) Approved Ingredients and Raw Materials. In the case of Approved Ingredients and/or any other raw materials, CBI may at its sole discretion (i) allow PBI to continue to use any such supplies, or (ii) require PBI to sell any such supplies back to CBI at cost.

(d) Confidential Information. Each Party shall immediately deliver to the other Party all written and other tangible originals and copies of any and all Confidential Information belonging to the other Party, not to retain any copies thereof, or certify to the other Party the destruction of all such Confidential Information. However, such Party may retain such Confidential Information to the extent it exists in that Party’s internal records for the purpose of resolving any disputes, enforcing the terms of this Agreement and complying with other legal requirements as may be required by law.

19. Governing Law. This Agreement and any claim or controversy arising out of, or relating to, rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and any other claim or controversy between the Parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia without regard to conflicts of laws principles. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in favor of or against any Party because of the Party that drafted this Agreement.

20. Limitations. REGARDLESS OF THE BASIS OF RECOVERY CLAIMED, WHETHER UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY), AND WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, FAILURE TO REALIZE EXPECTED SAVINGS OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

21. Attorney’s Fees and Costs. If any legal action or other proceeding, including any bankruptcy proceeding, regardless of whether such action is asserted on the basis of contract, tort (including negligence or strict liability), or otherwise, is brought for the enforcement of this Agreement, or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this Agreement, or the conduct of the Parties hereunder, the Prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs incurred in that action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it or they may be entitled, except as limited in Section 20. “Prevailing Party” within the meaning of this Section 21 includes, without limitation, a Party who obtains substantially the relief sought by it.

(a) Good Faith Negotiations. In the event of any dispute or difference arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof, the Parties shall use their best efforts to settle such disputes or differences in good faith negotiations, keeping in mind their mutual interests, in order to reach a just and equitable resolution of the dispute or difference satisfactory to both Parties. Either Party may make a written request to the other Party by sending notice thereof for a meeting of senior representatives (i.e. officers whose positions are at the level of vice-president of above) to resolve the Parties’ differences. Such meeting shall take place within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such notice at a time and location acceptable to both Parties.

(b) Conciliation/Mediation. If within thirty (30) days after a meeting of the senior representatives, the Parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the dispute or difference, the Parties shall jointly appoint a mutually acceptable neutral person not affiliated with either of the Parties, seeking assistance in such regard from the International Chamber of Commerce if the Parties are unable to agree upon such appointment within forty (40) days after the meeting of the senior representatives. Any fees associated with such neutral person’s services shall be shared equally by the Parties.

(c) Arbitration. All disputes arising from this Agreement left unresolved after consultation and mediation shall be finally settled by binding arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association by one arbitrator with industry experience appointed in accordance with said rules. Each Party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees, and the Parties shall share equally in the fees and expenses of the arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction of the matter.

(d) Injunctive Relief. It is expressly agreed that each Party would suffer irreparable harm from a material breach by the other of any of its covenants contained in this Agreement, and that remedies other than injunctive relief cannot fully compensate or adequately protect a Party for such a violation. Therefore, without limiting the rights of a Party to pursue all other legal and equitable

remedies available for violation of this Agreement, in the event of actual or threatened breach by a Party of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the breaching Party consents that the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any such violation or continuing violation thereof. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section are reasonable and necessary and commensurate with the need to protect the other Party against irreparable harm and to protect its legitimate and proprietary business interests and property.

22. Severability. If any part of this Agreement is held invalid by arbitration, court decree, or otherwise, the rest of this Agreement shall remain valid, and this Agreement shall be interpreted as if it had been signed without the invalid portion. To the extent that a court or arbitrator can substantially maintain the intent of the Parties in modifying any part of this Agreement, it shall be so modified.

23. Other Instruments. The Parties agree to acknowledge, sign and deliver all further documents, instruments or assurances and to perform all further acts needed to carry out the terms of this Agreement in accordance with its intent.

24. Performance After Expiration or Termination. The terms and conditions of this Agreement that require either CBI or PBI to perform any duty delineated herein after an assignment of interest hereunder, or the expiration or termination of this Agreement, that by their nature cannot be performed prior to any such assignment, expiration or termination, shall, nonetheless, remain enforceable against the Party from whom any such performance is due after the assignment, expiration or termination.

25. No Waiver of Rights or Remedies. Waiver by either Party of any particular default shall not impair its rights with respect to any subsequent default, nor shall any delay or omission of such Party to exercise any rights arising from any default affect or impair its rights as to the default. The Parties’ rights and remedies are cumulative, and no enforcement of a right or remedy shall preclude the enforcement of any other right or remedy.

26. Approval Standards. Whenever the approval of CBI is required under this Agreement (unless otherwise expressly provided), such approval may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

27. Notices. Any action set forth in this Agreement where either Party’s consent is required as well as all required notices to CBI or PBI, as the case may be, shall be requested or provided in writing and sent by personal delivery, registered or certified mail or by verifiable facsimile, addressed to CBI or PBI at their respective offices designated below and shall be deemed received when actually delivered.
