ARTICLE 2
Election of Monsanto Directors; Corporate Governance Provisions
in Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
2.1 Monsanto Directors. As set forth in the Investment Agreement,
depending on its ownership percentage of the Company's Common Stock,
Monsanto shall have the right to nominate up to two (2) directors
(together, the "Monsanto Directors" and, individually, a "Monsanto
Director") to the Board of Directors. Initially, one Monsanto
Director shall be nominated by Monsanto within twenty (20) business
days after the Closing Date and shall have a term expiring at the
Company's 1999 annual meeting of stockholders. If Monsanto is entitled
to nominate a second director, then such second Monsanto Director
shall be nominated for election at the Company's 1997 annual meeting
of stockholder and shall have a term expiring at the Company's 2000
annual meeting of stockholders.
2.2 Amendment of Bylaws. As set forth in the Investment
Agreement, prior to the Closing, the Company has agreed to cause
Article IX of the Bylaws to be amended as provided in Exhibit "D"
hereto.
2.3 Solicitation and Voting of Shares. In any election of
Directors, each Major A Stockholder shall use best efforts to attend
such stockholder meeting (in person or by proxy) for purposes of
establishing a quorum and shall vote (in person or by proxy) all its
shares of Stock in favor of any Monsanto Director nominated by
Monsanto and
7
11
recommended by the Board of Directors; provided that such
Monsanto Director is reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
2.4 Amendment of Bylaws. During the term of this Agreement and
after the adoption by the Company of the amendments to the Bylaws
described in Exhibit "D" hereto, without the prior written consent of
Monsanto, the Major A Stockholders shall not directly or indirectly
initiate any action that would result in the amendment of Section 9.3,
9.4, 9.5, 9.6 or 9.7 of the Bylaws.
2.5 Implementation of Investment Agreement. During the term of this
Agreement, each Major A Stockholder shall vote its shares of
Stock in favor of any proposed amendment to the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation increasing the Company's authorized capital stock,
which amendment is required in order for the Company to comply with
the provisions of Article 10 of the Investment Agreement.
2.6 Injunctive Relief. In the event of a breach of the provisions of this
Article 2 by any of the Major A Stockholders, Monsanto will suffer
irreparable harm and the total amount of monetary damages will be
impossible to calculate and will therefore be an inadequate remedy.
Accordingly, in such event, Monsanto shall be entitled to temporary
and permanent injunctive relief against the breaching party and to any
other rights and remedies to which Monsanto may be entitled to at law
or in equity.
8
12
2.7 Indemnification of Major A Stockholders.
(a) Monsanto's Indemnification Agreement. Subject to
paragraph (b) below, Monsanto shall indemnify and hold the
Major A Stockholders and their respective affiliates,
trustees, trust beneficiaries, directors, officers,
stockholders, employees, agents, successors and assigns
(each an "Indemnified Person") harmless from and against any
and all claims, liabilities, fines, penalties, demands,
causes of action, suits, judgments, losses, injuries,
damages (including costs of defense, settlement and
reasonable attorneys' fees) (all of the foregoing
hereinafter collectively called "Losses") suffered or
incurred by any Indemnified Person which arise from or in
connection with actions or inactions of any Indemnified
Person in the performance of the obligations of any Major A
Stockholder under this Article 2.
(b) Procedure. In the event that, from and after the
Closing, a third person asserts any claim against any
Indemnified Person with respect to any matter to which the
foregoing indemnities apply, the Indemnified Person shall
give prompt written notice to Monsanto, and Monsanto shall
have the right, at its election, to take over the defense or
settlement of such claim at its own expense by giving prompt
written notice to the Indemnified Person; provided, however,
that, (i) if Monsanto does not give such notice and does not
proceed diligently to defend the claim within thirty (30)
days after receipt of such notice of the claim, then the
Indemnified Person may employ separate counsel to represent
it and defend it against such claim and Monsanto shall be
bound by any defense or settlement that the Indemnified
Person may make as to such claim and shall reimburse the
Indemnified Person for any and all Losses resulting
therefrom as such Losses are incurred and (ii) if Monsanto
elects to defend the claim, then Monsanto shall employ
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person
and the
9
13
Indemnified Person shall be entitled to participate in
(but not control) the defense of such claim and to employ
separate counsel at its own expense to assist in the
handling of such claim, unless the common counsel
determines, in compliance with the canons of ethics of
the legal profession, that a conflict of interest exists
between Monsanto and an Indemnified Person, in which event
the Indemnified Person may appoint separate counsel to
represent or defend it against the claim and Monsanto
shall reimburse such Indemnified Person for all Losses
resulting therefrom as such Losses are incurred. The
Indemnified Person and Monsanto shall cooperate in defending
any such third person's claim, and Monsanto, to the extent
Monsanto elects to defend such claim, shall have reasonable
access to records, information and personnel in the
possession or control of any other party hereto which are
applicable to the subject matter of any claim or which are
otherwise pertinent to the defense of such claim and the
Indemnified Person shall otherwise cooperate with Monsanto
in all respects in connection therewith. Monsanto shall
reimburse the Indemnified Person for all of the Indemnified
Person's reasonable out-of-pocket costs as they are
incurred in connection with the activities set forth in the
immediately preceding sentence and in enforcing this
indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Monsanto
shall not settle or compromise any such claim without the
prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld, unless, after
consultation between such parties, the terms of such
settlement or compromise release such Indemnified Person
from any and all liability with respect to such claim and
do not in any manner adversely affect the future operations
or activities of such Indemnified Person.

ARTICLE 3
Limitation on Certain Transfers
3.1 General Limitations on Certain Transfers.
(a) Subject to Section 3.5, during the term of this
Agreement, no Major A Stockholder shall in any manner,
whether directly or indirectly, voluntarily or by operation
of law, sell, convey, transfer, assign, or otherwise
dispose of ("transfer") any interest in its Stock to any
Person or convert any of its Class A Common Stock to Class
B Common Stock except as provided under the terms of this
Agreement after complying with the provisions of this
Article 3.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement
including this Article 3, in no event shall any Major A
Stockholder tender any of its shares of Stock in the tender
offer to purchase shares of Class B Common Stock to be made
by Monsanto pursuant to the terms described in the
Investment Agreement.
3.2 Limitation on Certain Conversions and Transfers.
(a) Limitation on Conversions. Except pursuant to a court
order entered in connection with a divorce proceeding to an
ex-spouse of Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxx or
Xxxx X. Xxxxxxx or to an ex-spouse of a lineal descendant of
Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxx or Xxxx X.
Xxxxxxx, no Major A Stockholder shall convert any of its
Class A Common Stock to Class B Common Stock until such
time as such Major A Stockholder has entered into a binding
agreement to sell or otherwise convey such Class B Common
Stock to a third party.
11
15
(b) Limitations on Voluntary Transfers. Subject to Section
3.5, in the event that any Major A Stockholder desires to
transfer any interest in its Stock, including, without
limitation, a redemption of such Stock by the Company, such
Major A Stockholder (the "Selling Stockholder") shall make a
written offer (the "Transfer Notice") to Monsanto stating
(i) the number of shares of Stock proposed to be so
transferred (the "Offered Stock") and (ii) the price, form
of consideration and other material terms upon which the
Offered Stock are being offered; provided, however, that in
the event the Transfer Notice shall state that the Major A
Stockholder intends to dispose of such Offered Stock by
means of an underwritten public offering (a "Public
Offering"), in lieu of stating a price at which the Offered
Stock is being offered, the Major A Stockholder may state an
estimated price (less estimated underwriting discounts and
expenses of sale) at which the Major A Stockholder is
advised in writing by the managing underwriter as its good
faith estimate of the average between the estimated minimum
and maximum amounts at which such Offered Stock may be sold
in the Public Offering (the "Average Price"). For a period
of twenty-five (25) days (if the form of consideration
specified in the Transfer Notice only includes cash and/or
shares of stock traded in the NASDAQ National Market System
or on a U.S. securities exchange ("traded stock")), or
ninety (90) days (if the form of consideration specified in
the Transfer Notice includes property other than cash or
traded stock) following the date of the Transfer Notice (the
"Offer Period"), Monsanto shall have the irrevocable and
exclusive option (but not obligation) to purchase all (but
not less than all) of the Offered Stock in cash for the
price per share and upon the other terms specified in the
Transfer Notice; provided, however, in the event the
Transfer Notice shall have stated that the Major A
Stockholder intends to dispose of the Offered Stock in a
Public Offering, Monsanto may purchase the Offered Stock at
the Average Price (less the estimated amount of underwriting
discounts and expenses of offering) stated in the Transfer
Notice; provided, further, that if the proposed
consideration specified in the Transfer Notice includes
property
12
16
other than cash, then Monsanto shall have the option to
purchase the Offered Stock for consideration other than cash
that is equal in value to the non-cash property specified in
the Transfer Notice; and provided, further, that if the
consummation of the transfer described in the Transfer
Notice would cause the Selling Stockholder to recognize less
gain for income tax purposes than the amount of taxable gain
which the Selling Stockholder would recognize as a result of
a cash sale to Monsanto, then the aggregate purchase price
for the Offered Stock payable by Monsanto shall be increased
by an amount equal to (A) the gain which would not have
otherwise been recognized for income tax purposes multiplied
by a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the
denominator of which is one minus the highest marginal
income tax rate on capital gains for individuals in effect
at such time, minus (B) the gain which would not have
otherwise been recognized for income tax purposes. The gain
which would not have otherwise been recognized for income
tax purposes shall be computed using the Selling
Stockholder's actual tax basis in the Offered Stock based
upon (i) such records as Monsanto shall reasonably request
and (ii) as are certified by such Selling Stockholder as
true, complete, and correct. Monsanto's option to purchase
the shares of Offered Stock shall be exercised by giving
written notice to the Selling Stockholder within the Offer
Period. Alternatively, if Monsanto rejects the Selling
Shareholder's offer to sell the Offered Stock for the price
per share and upon the terms specified in the Transfer
Notice, then, for the remainder of the Offer Period,
Monsanto shall have the exclusive right to propose
alternative terms to the Selling Stockholder for the
purchase of the Offered Stock at such price per share and
upon such terms as the parties may agree upon.
Subject to Section 3.5, in the event a Selling
Stockholder proposes to dispose of Offered Stock in a
transaction subject to Article 3 hereof for consideration
that includes non-cash consideration other than traded
stock, such Selling Stockholder shall stipulate the value of
such property in the Transfer
13
17
Notice and shall, at the request of Monsanto, provide
to Monsanto, at the Selling Stockholder's expense, a written
valuation of such property prepared by a nationally-
recognized firm experienced in appraising the specified type
of property , which sets forth the value of such property.
In the event that Monsanto does not agree with such
valuation, Monsanto shall deliver a written notice of such
disagreement to the Selling Stockholder within fifteen (15)
days of the receipt of the written valuation and shall
thereafter deliver to the Selling Stockholder within thirty
(30) days following delivery of such disagreement, at
Monsanto's expense, a written valuation of such property
prepared on the same basis by another nationally-recognized
firm experienced in appraising the specified type of
property, which sets forth the value of such property. The
Selling Stockholder may either accept such subsequent
valuation or deliver written notice of its disagreement with
such valuation to such Selling Stockholder. In the latter
event, the Selling Stockholder and Monsanto shall agree to
the appointment of a third nationally-recognized firm
experienced in appraising the specified type of property,
who shall be selected by mutual agreement of their
respective nationally-recognized firms, whose valuation
shall establish conclusively the price for purposes of the
Transfer Notice. The expense of such third firm shall be
borne equally by the parties.
If property to be received by a Selling
Stockholder includes shares of stock that are traded on
the NASDAQ National Market System or any other system then
in use, then the value of a share of such stock shall be
deemed to be the last reported sale price (or, if not
available, the average of the closing bid and ask price) per
share during the 30-day period immediately preceding the
date of the Transfer Notice. If the property to be received
by a Selling Stockholder includes shares of a stock that is
listed on a United States securities exchange registered
under the Exchange Act, then the value of a share of such
stock shall be deemed to be the average of the closing sale
price per share of such stock
14
18
during the 30-day period immediately preceding the date
of the Transfer Notice on the principal United States
securities exchange registered under the Exchange Act on
which such stock is listed.
(c) Acceptance of Offer. If, during the Offer Period,
Monsanto exercises its right to purchase the Offered Stock
at the price per share and upon the terms specified in the
Transfer Notice or if the parties otherwise reach an
agreement regarding the price, terms and conditions of the
sale, then the Selling Stockholder shall sell the shares of
Offered Stock to Monsanto in accordance with the price per
share and terms specified in the Transfer Notice or pursuant
to such price, terms and conditions otherwise agreed upon by
the parties, including standard terms and conditions for a
stock purchase agreement. The closing of any such purchase
shall take place no later than twenty-five (25) days (if the
form of consideration specified in the Transfer Notice only
includes cash or traded stock) or ninety (90) days (if the
form of consideration specified in the Transfer Notice
includes property other than cash or traded stock) following
the expiration of the Offer Period.
(d) Nonacceptance of Offer. If, at the end of the Offer
Period, Monsanto has not exercised its right to purchase
the Offered Stock at the price per share and upon the terms
specified in the Transfer Notice and the parties have not
otherwise reached an agreement regarding the price, terms
and conditions of the Sale, then such Selling Stockholder
shall be entitled to offer and sell such shares of Offered
Stock to any Person (free and clear of any rights of
Monsanto) provided that the price, terms and conditions of
such sale, considered as a whole, are at least as favorable
to the Selling Stockholder as either (i) those set forth in
the Transfer Notice or (ii) those offered by Monsanto in any
counter offer, if any; provided, in the event the Transfer
Notice shall have stated an Average Price, the Offered Stock
may be disposed of in a Public Offering at a price no less
than the minimum
15
19
amount used as a basis to calculate the Average Price
(less actual underwriting discounts and expenses).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Selling Stockholder
shall not have signed a definitive agreement to sell the
Offered Stock within one hundred eighty (180) days
immediately following the expiration of the Offer Period,
then the shares of Offered Stock shall again be subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement in the same
manner as if the Transfer Notice had not been given.
(e) Limitations on Involuntary Transfers. Subject to
Section 3.5, if any involuntary transfer of any of the
Stock owned by a Major A Stockholder (a "Transferring
Stockholder") shall occur (such as, but not limited to, a
sale by a Major A Stockholder's trustee in bankruptcy, or a
sale to a purchaser at any creditor's or court sale) other
than an involuntary transfer to a Permitted Transferee:
(i) Transferee Takes Subject Hereto. The transferee
(which term, as used herein, shall include any and
all transferees and subsequent transferees of the
initial transferee) shall take and hold such Stock
subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities
and rights under this Agreement, which shall
continue in full force and effect.
(ii) Involuntary Transfer Notice. The Transferring
Stockholder (or, if it fails to do so, the
transferee) shall promptly give written notice
(the "Involuntary Transfer Notice") to Monsanto
and the Company stating (a) when the involuntary
transfer occurred or is to occur, (b) the
circumstances alleged to require such transfer,
(c) the number of shares of Stock involved and (d)
the name, address and capacity of the transferee.
If both the Transferring Stockholder and the
transferee shall fail to give the Involuntary
Transfer Notice, then the Involuntary Transfer
Notice may be given by the Company or by any other
stockholder of the Company and
16
20
the Involuntary Transfer Notice so given may
contain only such portion of the information set
forth in the preceding sentence as shall be known
to the Person so giving the Involuntary Transfer
Notice.
(iii) Purchase Option. Monsanto shall have the
irrevocable and exclusive option (but not the
obligation) for a period of forty-five (45) days
immediately following receipt of the Involuntary
Transfer Notice to purchase all but not less than
all of the shares of Stock included in the
Involuntary Transfer Notice (the "Involuntary
Transfer Stock") in cash for the price per share
and upon the terms and conditions set forth in
this Section 3.2(e). An election to exercise
Monsanto's option shall be made by Monsanto by
giving written notice to the Company, the
transferee and the Transferring Stockholder.
(iv) Failure to Give Notice. Failure by Monsanto to
give the notice provided for in paragraph (e)(iii)
within the time period provided for therein shall
be deemed an election by Monsanto not to purchase
any shares of the Involuntary Transfer Stock.
(v) Closing. If the shares of Involuntary Transfer
Stock are to be purchased by Monsanto pursuant to
this Section 3.2(e), then such purchase shall,
unless the parties thereto otherwise agree, be
completed at the principal office of Monsanto on
the thirtieth (30th) day following the giving of
notice by Monsanto pursuant to paragraph (e)(iii)
of its election to exercise its option to purchase
the Involuntary Transfer Stock.
(vi) Purchase Price. The price per share of the
Involuntary Transfer Stock to be paid by Monsanto
upon exercise of its option to purchase such
17
21
Involuntary Transfer Stock pursuant to
paragraph (e)(iii) shall be as follows:
(a) With respect to shares of Class A
Common Stock, if the shares of the
Company's Class B Common Stock are then
traded in the NASDAQ National Market
System or on a United States securities
exchange registered under the Exchange
Act, the price per share shall be the
average of the last reported sales price
(or, if not available, the average of
the closing bid and ask price) per
share of the Company's Class B Common
Stock on the NASDAQ National Market
System (or such other securities
exchange on which the Company's Class B
Common Stock is then listed) on each of
the thirty (30) trading days immediately
preceding the closing of the purchase of
such Class A Common Stock; and
(b) With respect to shares of any
Involuntary Transfer Stock other than
Class A Common Stock, or, with respect
to shares of Class A Common Stock if the
Company's Class B Common Stock is not
then listed on the NASDAQ National
Market System or on a United States
securities exchange registered under the
Exchange Act, the price per share shall
be the fair market value per share as
determined by an investment banking firm
of recognized standing selected by
mutual agreement of the transferee or
Transferring Stockholder, as the case
may be (depending on who is the legal
owner of the Involuntary Transfer
Stock), and Monsanto. If the transferee
or the Transferring Stockholder, as the
case may be, and Monsanto are unable to
agree upon an investment banking firm to
perform the valuation, then both
Monsanto and the transferee or the
Transferring Stockholder, as the case
may be, shall select an
18
22
investment banking firm and the two
investment banking firms so selected
shall select a third investment banking
firm to perform the valuation. The
determination of the third investment
banking firm as to the fair market value
per share shall be final and binding on
the parties. If the parties are unable
to mutually agree upon an investment
banking firm to perform the valuation,
then Monsanto and the transferee or the
Transferring Stockholder, as the case
may be, shall pay the fees of the
investment banking firm selected by each
such party. The fees of any investment
banking firm mutually agreed upon by the
parties and the fees of any third
investment banking firm performing the
valuation in connection with the
services provided pursuant to this
paragraph (e)(vi) shall be paid fifty
percent (50%) by Monsanto and fifty
percent (50%) by the transferee or the
Transferring Stockholder, as the case
may be.
(vii) Delivery of Certificates. At the closing of the
purchase and sale of Involuntary Transfer Stock
pursuant to the exercise of options granted under
this Section 3.2, the Transferring Stockholder or
the transferee, as the case may be, shall deliver
to Monsanto duly endorsed for transfer, with all
required state or federal documentary tax stamps
affixed thereto, certificates representing all of
the shares of Involuntary Transfer Stock being
purchased and sold at such closing against payment
therefor in cash or certified or bank cashier's
check. In addition, the Transferring Stockholder
or the transferee, as the case may be, shall
deliver to Monsanto such signature guarantees and
other documents and certificates as may be
reasonably requested by Monsanto in order to
confirm the Transferring Stockholder's or the
transferee's, as the case may be,
19
23
title to such Involuntary Transfer Stock and
its authority to act in connection with the sale
thereof.
3.3 Legend. A copy of this Agreement shall be filed with the
Secretary of the Company and shall be kept at its principal executive
office. Upon the execution of this Agreement, each of the Major A
Stockholders shall cause each certificate representing shares of Stock
owned by such Major A Stockholder to carry a legend as follows:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT
BE SOLD, CONVEYED, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED,
HYPOTHECATED, MORTGAGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS SUCH
TRANSFER COMPLIES WITH THE PROVISIONS OF A STOCKHOLDERS'
AGREEMENT DATED AS OF JANUARY 31, 1996, A COPY OF WHICH IS
ON FILE AT THE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY.
Upon the acquisition of additional shares of Stock after the
date hereof, each Major A Stockholder shall cause each certificate
representing such additional shares of Stock to carry the above
legend.
3.4 Nonrecognition of Certain Transfers. Any transfer, acquisition
or conversion of shares of Stock in violation of this Agreement shall
be null and void. Each Major A Stockholder agrees that any such
transfer, acquisition or conversion may and should be enjoined.
3.5 Exceptions. The provisions of this Article 3 shall not apply to:
(a) a Pledge of Stock or any interest therein to a bank or
other reputable lending institution in a bona fide loan transaction
and not made in bad faith to avoid the provisions of this Article 3;
provided, however, if the pledgee is not a party to this
20
24
Agreement it shall execute a counterpart of this
Agreement acknowledging that it has become a party to this Agreement
with respect to the shares of Stock so pledged, after which such
pledgee shall be deemed a Major A Stockholder;
(b) a transfer, directly or indirectly, voluntarily or
involuntarily, of any interest in Stock to a Permitted Transferee
(including transfers of Voting Trust Certificates or interests in
Stock pursuant to the Xxxxxxx Family Voting Trust Agreement and the
Xxxxxxx Family Shareholder Agreement); provided, however, that the
Permitted Transferee, if not then a party to this Agreement, shall
execute a counterpart to this Agreement acknowledging that it has
become a party to this Agreement with respect to the shares of Stock
so transferred, after which such Permitted Transferee shall be deemed
a Major A Stockholder;
(c) the appointment of or transfer of any interest in Stock to
any trustee, guardian, executor, administrator, Voting Trustee of the
Voting Trust or other fiduciary acting solely for the benefit of one
or more Permitted Transferees;
(d) the granting of a proxy with respect to Stock solicited by the
Board of Directors;
(e) any exchange, conversion or transfer of Stock in connection
with a Business Combination; provided, however, that this clause (e)
shall not permit any agreement to sell or otherwise transfer any
interest in Stock (including the granting of any proxy to the
acquiror) by any Major A Stockholder prior to the Company's execution
of an agreement with respect to such Business Combination; or
(f) any tender or exchange of Stock in accordance with the
terms of any tender or exchange offer, which tender or exchange offer
would result, if consummated in accordance with its terms, in the
beneficial ownership by any Person or group (within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) of all of the Class A Common Stock and
21
25
Class B Common Stock; provided, however, that this clause (f)
shall not permit any Major A Stockholder to surrender (or enter into a
binding agreement to sell or surrender) any Stock or interest therein
in connection with such tender or exchange offer unless the Company
has previously published to security holders of the Company a
statement pursuant to Rule 14e-2 (or any successor rule) under the
Exchange Act.

parties hereto, assign all or any of its rights, interests, and
obligations under this Agreement to a wholly owned, direct or

(i) shall remain liable for the performance by any such subsidiary of
its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) shall act as agent for any
and all such subsidiaries in connection with the receipt and giving of

such subsidiary to be other than a wholly owned direct or indirect

4.5 Delays or Omissions. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy
accruing to Monsanto, upon any breach or default of or any Major A
Stockholder under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power
or remedy of Monsanto nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any
such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any
similar breach or default thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit,
consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party
or any waiver on the part of any party of any provisions or conditions
of this Agreement must be made in writing and shall be effective only
to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies,
either under this Agreement, at law, in equity or otherwise afforded

4.7 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement
becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect without said provision; provided, however, that no

economic benefit of this Agreement to any party.

4.9 Headings. Headings as to the contents of particular articles

Collaboration Agreement and License between Monsanto and the Company
dated of even date herewith (except if the same is terminated by
reason of a material breach thereof by the Company or by reason of a
governmental decree caused by the voluntary action of the Company),
(ii) such time as Monsanto owns less than (A) five percent (5%) of the
outstanding Class A Common Stock or (B) less than fifty percent (50%)
of the highest percent of the outstanding Common Stock as is

contemplated by the Investment Agreement, the Closing and any

permitted under the Investment Agreement during the one year period
after the Closing, (iii) the date on which the Investment Agreement is
terminated and (iv) on the eleventh anniversary of the Closing or any
subsequent anniversary of the Closing if either Monsanto on the one
hand or a majority in interest of Stock beneficially owned by the
Persons who are then Major A Stockholders on the other gives written
notice to all other parties hereto that this Agreement shall terminate

4.11 Effective Date. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
