thereon ("Premises") and all equipment thereon including, but not limited to the
items specified in Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference (the "Equipment") (Premises and Equipment referred to collectively as
the "Facilities").

terms, covenants and conditions herein contained and for the term set forth
herein.
1. Term - The term of the lease herein made shall be for ten (10) years,
beginning on January 5, 1995, and ending on December 31, 2004, unless
sooner terminated as provided herein.
2. Rent - Lessee agrees to pay the Lessor as monthly rent for the leased
Facilities the amount of $30,081 per month during the term of this
lease. Said rent shall be payable in advance every month on or before
the first day of each month.
3. Lessor's Mortgage - The Facilities are encumbered by a first priority
deed of trust in favor of Xxxx X. Xxxxxx as trustee for the benefit of
The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States as the same
has been modified (the "Mortgage"). If Lessor fails to make any payment
due on the Mortgage, Lessee may make such payment and any penalty on
behalf of Lessor and reduce the rentals due hereunder by the amount so
paid. In addition Lessee, after making two or more payments within any
twelve-month period on the Mortgage pursuant to this paragraph may
exercise immediately the Purchase Option specified in paragraph 24 and
prepay the Mortgage according to its terms and reduce the Purchase
Price under the Purchase Option by the amount so paid.
4. Competition - Each of the shareholders, officers and directors of
Lessor hereby agrees that they shall not engage, directly or
indirectly, in the financing, management, or operation of a fertilizer
business within a radius of one hundred twenty (120) miles from
Indianola, for a period of three (3) years after the commencement date
of the Lease. Should there be a breach by any of the shareholders,
officers or directors of the covenants hereunder and should Lessee be
required to enforce the covenants herein by legal action, Lessee shall
be entitled to recover, in addition to all other remedies available to
Lessee at law or at equity, all attorneys' fees and court costs
incurred by Lessee in requiring compliance with the terms and
obligations of this paragraph. Any action for breach of this Paragraph
shall be against the breaching party only.
5. Taxes - Lessee shall pay or cause to be paid all city, county, and
state property taxes, charges and assessments levied and assessed
against the Facilities and any personal property of Lessee on the
Premises. If Lessee fails to pay taxes and assessments as they become
due, so that in Lessor's judgment its property interest in the
Facilities is jeopardized and Lessee continues in such a failure after
being requested by Lessor to pay the same, Lessor shall have the right
to pay such taxes and assessments, and to add such payment amount
together with interest thereon to any installment of rent thereafter
payable hereunder.
6. Services and Utilities - Lessee shall pay for all charges for the
provision of all utilities serving the leased Premises and incurred by
Lessee in connection with its use of the Facilities, including, but
not limited to, gas, electricity, and water.
7. Quiet Possession - Lessor warrants and represents that Lessor is
presently vested with good and marketable title to the Premises and
the Equipment and covenants and agrees that Lessee, upon paying the
said rental and observing the covenants and conditions contained
herein, shall have quiet possession of the Facilities for the term of
the lease.
8. Use of the Facilities - The Premises shall be used and occupied by
Lessee as a fertilizer and crop protection chemical blending,
handling, storage and distribution facility and for other legal
purposes. Lessee shall comply with all laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations concerning the Facilities and its use thereof, and shall
be obligated to comply with any law that requires any alteration,
maintenance, or restoration of the Facilities as a result of the
Lessee's particular and specific use of the Facilities. Lessee shall
not use or permit the use of the Facilities in any manner that will
tend to create waste or a nuisance.
9. Removal of Fuel Tanks at Indianola - Lessor has placed on the Indianola
property tanks and related piping, diking and other fixtures for the
storage of fuel (the "Tanks"). Lessor, at its sole cost and expense has
agreed to remove the Tanks and remediate the site as may be required.
All such work shall be completed on or before March 1, 1995. So long as
remediation has begun and is being diligently pursued, Xxxxx may extend
the time for remediation until June 1 ,1995. All remediation work shall
meet the requirements of the Mississippi Department of Environmental
Quality. Lessor hereby indemnifies and holds harmless Lessee, its
successors and assigns from any and all utilities, costs, damages,
and/or expenses caused by the Tanks and/or their removal and/or the
site remediation.
10. Condition of Facilities - Except for the Tanks as discussed in
Paragraph 9 above and except for the warranties made by Lessor in the
Agreement of Sale dated May 8, 1992, between and among the parties
hereto and FarmKist Enterprises, Lessee has examined the leased
Facilities and accepts them in their present condition without any
representations on the part of Lessor or its agents as to the present
or future condition or as to the suitability of the Facilities for
Lessee's use thereof. Lessee accepts the Facilities subject to all
applicable municipal, county and state laws, zoning ordinances and
regulations governing and regulating the Facilities and subject to all
matters disclosed pursuant to the terms of this agreement and any
exhibits attached hereto.
11. Repair and Maintenance - Except for damage caused by acts of Lessor,
its agents, employees or invitees, Lessee at its expense shall keep in
good order, condition and repair the Facilities and all structures and
portions thereof and shall make any and all necessary repairs to same
within a reasonable time after receipt of written notice from Lessor of
the need for such repairs. In the event Lessee fails to perform its
obligations hereunder, Lessor may at its option come in or upon the
Premises after ten days' prior written notice to Lessee and put the
same in good order, condition, maintenance and repair, and the costs
thereof together with interest thereon shall be due and payable
immediately or as additional rent to Lessor with Lessee's next rental
installment.
12. Removal and Substitution of Equipment - If Lessee, in its sole
discretion, determines that any item(s) of Equipment have become
inadequate, obsolete, worn out, unsuitable, undesirable, inappropriate
or unnecessary for its purposes at any time, Lessee may remove such
items from the Premises and sell, trade in, or otherwise dispose of
them (as a whole or in part) without any responsibility or
accountability to Lessor therefor. If Lessee elects to substitute and
install (if appropriate) other machinery, equipment and related
property or none of such machinery, equipment or related property shall
not be subject to this Agreement. The removal from the Facilities of
any portion of the Equipment pursuant to the provisions of this
Paragraph shall not entitle Lessee to any diminution in or postponement
or abatement of the rents payable hereunder nor to any reduction in the
purchase price if Lessee elects to exercise the purchase option
specified in Paragraph 24.
13. Additions and Alterations - Lessee may make all such changes,
alterations, additions, or improvements in or to the Premises as it may
deem necessary, suitable or desirable. Lessee shall make all such
changes, alterations and improvements in compliance with law and in a
good and workmanlike manner without impairing the structural soundness
of the Premises or any structures located thereon. Unless the Premises
are sold to Lessee pursuant to paragraph 24 of this agreement, Lessor
shall, at the termination of this agreement, have the option to require
Lessee to remove any and all changes, alterations, additions and
improvements in and to the Premises and restore the Premises to the
condition as existed upon Lessee's occupancy of the Premises. Unless
Lessor requires their removal, all changes, alterations, additions, and
improvements placed upon the Premises shall become the property of
Lessor and shall remain upon and be surrendered with the Premises at
the termination of this agreement.
14. Condemnation - If the Facilities or any portion thereof are taken under
the power of eminent domain, condemned for a temporary or permanent
public or quasi-public use, or sold under the threat of the exercise of
said power, Lessee may, at Lessee's option, to be exercised in writing
to Lessor, exercise the Purchase Option specified in Paragraph 24. If
Lessee does not exercise the Purchase Option, this Lease shall remain
in full force and effect as to the portion of the Facilities remaining,
with no reduction in rent or the Purchase Price. Any award for the
taking of the fee for the Premises for the purposes hereunder shall be
the property of Lessee, and Lessee shall be entitled to any award for
loss of or damage to Lessee's trade fixtures and removable personal
property.
15. Damage or Destruction - In the event of damage to or destruction of the
Premises by fire or any other casualty, whether covered by an insurance
policy required to be maintained hereunder or not, during the term of
this Lease or in the event of such a partial destruction thereof as to
render the Premises wholly untenantable or unfit for occupancy, or
should the Premises be so badly injured that the same cannot be
repaired within thirty (30) days from the happening of such injury,
then and in such case, Lessee may exercise the Purchase Option
immediately. If Lessee does not exercise the Purchase Option, this
Lease shall remain in full force and effect with no reduction in rent
or in the Purchase Price. Insurance proceeds paid because of fire,
damage or destruction shall be payable as provided in Paragraph 19.
Lessee shall promptly notify Lessor in case of fire or other damage or
destruction to the Premises.
16. Liens - Lessee shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials
furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for
the use in the Premises for construction or other purposes done by
Lessee or caused to be done by Lessee on the Premises. Lessee shall
keep the Premises free and clear of all liens resulting from
construction or repair work done by or for the Lessee or resulting from
Lessee's occupancy or use of the Premises. If Lessee shall, in good
faith, contest the validity of any such lien, claim, or demand, Lessee
shall, at its sole expense, defend itself and Lessor against the same
and shall pay and satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be
rendered thereon before the enforcement thereof against the Lessor or
the Premises, upon the condition that if Lessor shall require, Lessee
shall provide to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an
amount equal to such contested lien claim or demand indemnifying Lessor
against liability for the same and holding the Premises free from the
effect of such lien or claim. In addition, Lessee shall pay Lessor's
attorneys fees and costs in participating in such action.
So long as Lessee is not in default hereunder, Lessor shall not cause
or permit any liens of any nature (excluding the Mortgage) be levied
against the Facilities or any portion thereof. Lessor shall satisfy or
otherwise remove with five days any lien placed on Facilities or any
portion thereof which lien arises through Lessor. If Lessor fails to
keep the Facilities free and clear of liens as specified herein, Lessee
may after notice to Lessor pay any and all such liens and reduce the
rent due hereunder by the sum of such amount paid plus Lessee's costs
in satisfying such liens, including but not limited to, actual
attorneys' fees.
17. Indemnity - Lessee shall indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from and
against any and all claims arising from Lessee's use and occupancy of
the Facilities, or from the conduct of Lessee's business or from any
activity, work or things done, permitted or suffered by Lessee in or
about the Premises or elsewhere, and shall further indemnify and hold
Lessor harmless from and against any and all claims arising from any
breach or default in the performance of any obligation on Lessee's part
to be performed under the terms of this Lease or arising from the
negligence of the Lessee, or any of Lessee's agents, contractors, or
employees, and from and against all costs, attorneys' fees, expenses
and liabilities incurred in the defense of any such claim or any action
or proceeding brought thereon. In case any action or proceeding shall
be brought against Lessor by reason of any claim, Lessee, upon notice
from Lessor, shall defend the same at Lessee's expense. Lessee, as a
material part of the consideration to Lessor, hereby assumes all risks
of damage to property or injury to persons, in, upon, or about the
Facilities arising from any cause, and Lessee hereby waives all claims
in respect thereof against Lessor. The indemnity obligations of this
paragraph shall not apply to damages directly resulting from the
negligence or intentional acts of Lessor, its agents, servants, or
employees.
18. Exemption of Lessor from Liability - Lessee hereby agrees that Lessor
shall not be liable for injury to Lessee's business or any loss of
income therefrom or for damage to the goods, inventory, equipment,
merchandise or other property of Lessee, Lessee's employees, invitees,
customers, or any other person in or about the Premises, nor shall
Lessor be liable for any injury to the person of Lessee, Lessee's
employees, agents or contractors, whether such damage or injury is
caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain,
or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes,
sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, air conditioning or lighting
fixtures, or from any other cause, whether the said damage or injury
results from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon portions of
the building on the Premises, or from other sources or places, and
regardless of whether the cause of such damage or injury or the means
of repairing the same is inaccessible to Lessee.
19. Insurance - Lessee shall obtain and keep in force a policy of standard
fire and comprehensive hazard insurance covering loss of or damage to
the Premises leased. Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, The
Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States shall be
designated as a "loss payee" on such policies of fire and comprehensive
hazard insurance relating to the property described on Exhibit A as the
liquid fertilizer terminal (Greenville) and the dry fertilizer terminal
(Greenville), and such loss payee clause shall continue throughout the
term of this Lease, or until the Mortgage is satisfied and cancelled,
whichever occurs first. Lessor hereby assigns to Lessee any proceeds
from insurance which may be made available to Lessor by the Grantee
under the Mortgage. Lessee shall obtain and keep in force all insurance
which it deems necessary for protection against loss of or damage to
any of its property situated in or about the leased Premises. Lessee
shall, at Lessee's expense, obtain and keep in force during the term of
this Lease, a policy of general and public liability insurance insuring
Lessor and Lessee against any liability for personal injury and
property damage arising out of the use, occupation or maintenance of
the Premises and all areas appurtenant thereto by Lessee. Such policy
shall contain provisions insuring performance by Lessee of the
indemnity provisions of Paragraph 16 hereof.
20. Assignment and Subletting - Lessee may assign, transfer, mortgage,
sublet, or otherwise transfer or encumber all or any part of Lessee's
interest in this Lease or in the Premises leased hereunder upon
written notice to Lessor. No subletting or assignment shall release
Lessee of Lessee's obligations or alter the primary liability of
Lessee to pay the rent and to perform all other obligations of the
Lessee hereunder. Lessor may not assign, transfer, mortgage, sublet or
otherwise transfer or encumber its interest in this Lease or in the
Facilities whether by operation of law or otherwise.
21. Default -
a. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall
constitute a default by Lessee:
1) The vacating or abandonment of the Premises by Lessee.
2) The failure by Lessee to pay rent when due, if the
failure continues for fifteen days after notice has
been given to Lessee.
3) The failure of Lessee to perform any other
provisions, covenants or conditions of this Lease
required of Lessee if such a failure to perform is
not cured within twenty (20) days; Lessee shall not
be in default of this Lease if Lessee commences to
cure the default within the 20-day period and
thereafter diligently and in good faith prosecutes
such cure to completion. Lessor shall be in default
upon failure to perform obligations required of
Lessor hereunder within a reasonable time, but in no
event later than twenty (20) days after written
notice by Lessee to Lessor specifying the failure to
perform; provided, however, that if the default
cannot reasonably be cured within twenty (20) days,
Lessor shall not be in default of this Agreement if
Lessor commences to cure the default within the
twenty (20) day period and thereafter diligently and
in good faith prosecutes such cure to completion.
b. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall
constitute a default by Lessor:
1) Failure to make any payment on the Mortgage, if the
failure continues for fifteen (15) days.

than the Mortgage.

pursued, Xxxxx may extend the time for remediation
until June 1, 1995. All remediation work shall meet
the requirements of the Mississippi Department of
Environmental Quality.
22. Remedies
a. If Lessee is in default, Lessor may, at any time thereafter,
with or without notice of demand and without limiting Lessor
in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have
by reason of such default:
1) Terminate Lessee's right to possession of the
Premises by any lawful means, in which case this
Lease Agreement shall terminate and Lessee shall
immediately surrender possession of the Premises to
Lessor. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to
recover from Lessee all damages incurred by Lessor by
reason of Lessee's default.
2) Maintain Lessee's right to possession in which case
this Lease shall continue in effect whether or not
Lessee shall have abandoned the Premises. In such
event, Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of
Lessor's rights and remedies under this Lease,
including the right to recover the rent as it becomes
due hereunder.
3) Perform at its own expense such obligation that
Lessee fails to perform, the cost of which together
with interest thereon shall be immediately payable or
shall be due and payable as additional rent to Lessor
with Lessee's next rental installment.
4) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available to
Lessor under applicable laws or judicial decisions.

Lessor fails to perform and deduct the cost thereof
from rent thereafter due.
2) May, at its option, immediately exercise the Purchase
Option.

after termination of this lease pursuant to the conditions hereunder,
Lessee shall surrender to Lessor the Premises in good condition,
except for ordinary wear and tear. Lessee shall remove all of its
personal property within the above-stated time and shall perform all
restoration and repairs made necessary by any such removal of changes,
alterations, additions, improvements, trade fixtures or personal
property.
24. Option to Purchase
(a) Lessee shall have the right and option, irrevocable during the
term of this lease (the "Option"), to purchase the Facilities.
(b) The Option may be exercised by Lessee on or after December 1,
2004 by giving written notice of its exercise to Lessor. In the
event of exercise of the Option, the sale of the Premises shall
be closed within six (6) months following termination of this
lease, unless the closing is extended by mutual consent of the
parties. Lessee shall remain in possession of the Premises during
any such extension.
(c) The purchase price for the Facilities shall be determined by the
schedule attached as Exhibit C (the "Purchase Price").
(d) The Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of all
insurance proceeds paid during the term hereof to Equitable
holder of the Mortgage, and by the amount of any liens against
Lessor satisfied by Lessee for which a rental deduction was not
made by Lessee.
(e) Lessor agrees that Lessee and its servants, agents, employees and
representatives shall have access to the Facilities during the
term of the lease to conduct and commission any surveys,
engineering studies, environmental audits, site studies, test
borings, soil and sub-soil studies, water table and supply, and
other investigations Lessee may deem necessary to conduct on the
Premises. Lessee assumes all responsibilities for its acts, or
the acts of its agents, servants, employees, contractors or
representatives, in exercising its rights hereunder, and agrees
to indemnify and hold Lessor harmless from and against any
property damage, personal injury, or claim of lien against the
Premises resulting from the activities permitted hereunder.
(f) At closing, Lessor shall convey good and marketable title to the
Facilities to Lessee by warranty deed subject to easements and
restrictions of record; applicable zoning ordinances; current
property taxes; and encroachments, overlaps, and boundary line
disputes and such other matters as would be disclosed by a
current survey and inspection of the property. Marketable title
as provided herein, shall be such title as is acceptable to a
title insurance company (licensed to conduct business in the
state of Mississippi) for issuance of its owner's title policy at
standard rates, subject to standard permitted exceptions and the
exceptions set forth above.
(g) In the event that there are defects in the title or matters of
survey as to the Premises, not excepted as provided herein, at
Lessee's option, Lessee shall have the right either (1) to
rescind, at any time prior to the closing date, its exercise of
the Option, and to be released from any further obligations to
proceed with the final purchase of the Premises unless Lessor, at
its expense, shall have cured such defects to the satisfaction of
Lessee within a reasonable time after having received written
notice of the defects from Lessee or (2) to cure such defects and
deduct the cost thereof from the Purchase Price.
(h) Lessor shall pay all transfer tax or documentary stamp taxes
applicable to the transaction contemplated hereunder and for the
preparation of the warranty deed to effect the transaction.
Lessee shall pay the cost of recording all documents to be
recorded. Each party shall pay its own attorneys fees. Applicable
property taxes for the year in which the closing is effected
shall be prorated as of the date of closing.
(i) Closing shall be held at a time and place mutually agreed upon by
Lessor and Lessee no later than 48 hours prior to the closing
time and no later than the end of the term of this lease.
(j) Each party warrants to the other that it has not dealt with any
real estate agent, broker or finder with respect to this
transaction and that it is not aware of any finder's fee or
brokerage or real estate commission which will result from the
execution of this agreement, the exercise of the Option, or the
ultimate consummation of the purchase contemplated hereby. Any
fee generated by or occasioned as a result of the breach of the
warranty contained herein shall be borne by the breaching party.
25. Surveys - The parties are entering into this Lease with Purchase
Option without conducting surveys of the Premises. At its sole
discretion and expense, Lessee may have surveys on the Premises done.
If such surveys are prepared, the parties agree to modify the legal
descriptions for the Premises to reflect the results of the surveys.
Each party shall bear its own costs in preparing and executing such
modification. No adjustment to the rent or the Purchase Price shall be
made due to such surveys.
26. Lessor's Adjacent Storage Tank Facility - Lessor owns a parcel of real
property located adjacent to a part of the real property leased hereby
known as the "Dry Fertilizer Terminal (Greenville)", and Lessor and
Lessee recognize that it will be necessary for Lessor to construct a
loading facility and install pipelines for the use of Lessor's storage
tank facility. Lessee is evaluating the feasibility of construction of
a railroad spur track on the Dry Fertilizer Terminal at Greenville,
and Lessor might wish to use such spur track. Therefore, Lessor and
Lessee agree:
(a) That, after proper study and evaluation regarding the
feasibility and location and other aspects of such improvements as
Lessee shall deem appropriate, Lessor shall be granted an easement
for the installation of an underground pipeline and a loading
facility as may be reasonably necessary for the use of Lessor's
storage tank facility, such easement to connect Lessor's storage
tanks to the loading facility and extending westwardly to Lake
Xxxxxxxx; but such easements for a pipeline and/or a loading
facility shall not interfere with the normal operation of the dry
terminal of Lessee nor create a hazard or unsafe condition by its
operation in the midst of the operation of Lessee's terminal.
(b) The cost of the installation and maintenance of any pipeline or
loading facility of Lessor shall be paid by Lessor; and
(c) To negotiate in good faith an agreement to share the benefits,
costs, and obligations of a railroad spur track which is, or may
be, located on the Dry Fertilizer Terminal in Greenville.
27. Holding Over - If Lessee remains in possession of the Premises or any
part thereof after the termination of this Lease without the express
written consent of the Lessor, such occupancy shall be a tenancy from
month to month at a rental in the amount of the last monthly rental
plus all other charges payable hereunder, and upon all of the terms
hereof applicable to a month to month tenancy; provided, however, that
there shall be no renewal of this Agreement by operation of law.
28. Waiver - No waiver by either party of any provision hereof shall be
deemed a waiver of any other provision hereof or of any subsequent
breach by the other party of the same or any other provision. A
party's consent to or approval of any act shall not be deemed to
render unnecessary the obtaining of such party's consent to or
approval of any subsequent act by the other party. The acceptance of
rent hereunder by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach
by Lessee of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to
pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of Lessor's knowledge
of such preceding breach at the time of the acceptance of such rent.
29. Notice - Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, or
communication that either party desires or is required to give to the
other party or to any other person shall be in writing and either
served personally or sent by pre-paid, first-class mail. Any notice,
demand, request, consent, approval or communication that either party
desires or is required to give to the other party shall be addressed
to the other party at the address set forth by the signatures on this
lease. Either party may change its address by notifying the other
party of the change of address with the same formality set forth above
in this paragraph. Notice shall be deemed effective as of the time of
mailing if mailed as provided in this paragraph.
30. Severability - The unenforceability, invalidity, or illegality of any
provision of this lease shall not render the other provisions
unenforceable, invalid, or illegal.
31. Successors - This lease shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the parties and their successors and assigns.
32. Entire Agreement: Amendments - This lease contains all agreements of
the parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein, supersedes
all prior communications, negotiations, and agreements of the parties,
and may not be modified or amended except by written agreement of the
parties.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this agreement to be executed
by its duly authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
