Exhibit 10.85

AGRICULTURAL LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR
626 ACRES TO BE DEVELOPED WITH
MACADAMIA ORCHARDS

THIS AGREEMENT OF AGRICULTURAL LICENSE, made and entered into this 12th day of, September, 1979, by and between INTERNATIONAL AIR SERVICE CO., LTD. organized under the laws of the State of California and qualified to do business in the State of Hawaii (herein called “Owner”), and MAUNA LOA MACADAMIA NUT CORPORATION, a Hawaii corporation (herein called “Mauna Loa”),

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Owner will develop 626 acres (Parcel B) with macadamia orchards at Ka’u, County and State of Hawaii, said parcel being more particularly described in Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof, and being hereinafter called the “Owner’s Land”;

WHEREAS, the Owner desires to enter into this Agricultural License of Owner’s Land to Mauna Loa for the purposes of Mauna Loa’s farming a macadamia orchard thereon the license fee for which will be measured by the macadamia nuts produced thereon offset by reimbursable farming costs, all as set forth in this Agreement of License, and

WHEREAS, Owner and Mauna Loa already are working under a letter agreement dated March 29, 1979, to develop 126 acres of macadamia orchards on Owner’s Land which letter agreement is superceded by this Agricultural License and declared to be null and void as of the date of this Agricultural License.

1

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual promises herein contained, it is agreed that Mauna Loa shall have the irrevocable Agricultural License rights, coupled with an interest in Owner’s Land specified herein for a period of 50 years upon the conditions and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein.

SECTION 1.

License Term and Rent

This Agricultural License Agreement shall commence and take effect July            , 1979, and (unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided in Section 9) shall continue in full force and effect for fifty (50) years thereafter. The License Fee shall be measured by the value of macadamia nuts produced on the premises minus offsets for reimbursable farming costs, in addition to all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be interpreted under the laws of the State of Hawaii.

SECTION 2.

Orchard Development Services to be Performed by Mauna Loa

2.1   Clearing and Leveling.   As soon as practicable following the signing of this Agreement, Owner (or Mauna Loa at Owner’s request) shall clear and level Owner’s Land in such a manner as may be deemed by Mauna Loa to be the most advisable for the establishment of a macadamia orchard thereon. In fact, Owner has prior to the date of signing of this Agreement started this work.

2

2.2   Windbreaks and Field Roads.    As soon as practicable following its clearing and leveling of Owner’s Land Mauna Loa shall plant such trees as supplied by Owner.

If owner requests Mauna Loa to grow windbreak trees, all costs associated therewith shall be treated as reimbursable costs in accordance with Section 4 hereof. If owner purchases windbreak trees from Mauna Loa (or other sources) for planting by Mauna Loa, the purchase price shall be treated as a capital expenditure, and all planting costs shall be treated as Reimbursable Costs in accordance with Section 4 hereof. As soon as practicable following the clearing and leveling of the Owner’s Land, Mauna Loa shall install such field roads as may be reasonably necessary for the conduct of its operations in the management of Owner’s Land and to provide Owner reasonable access at places it selects to its property below Parcel B.

2.3   Purchase of Macadamia Trees.    Mauna Loa will make available to Owner grafted trees of Mauna Loa’s recommended commercial varieties, field ready to be planted (approximately 97 trees to the net tree acre). Owner shall pay to Mauna Loa $10.00 per tree during the first 2 years of this Agreement, and a price to be mutually agreed upon thereafter.

Mauna Loa will purchase from Owner for $38,000, Owner’s macadamia seedling trees which Owner has delivered to Mauna Loa’s nursery at Keeau during 1979. This credit to Owner will be applied against Owner’s first $38,000 of obligations to Mauna Loa due under this Agreement.

3

Owner recognizes that, due to unpredictable climatic conditions and the normal agricultural risks involved, the amount of tree mortality and the number of replants necessary is uncertain, as are the yields from the orchard. Except as provided elsewhere herein, Mauna Loa gives no warranties or guaranties whatsoever concerning the amount of tree mortality and number of replants that are necessary, or the yields from the orchards.

2.4   Macadamia Planting.    As soon as practicable following the clearing and leveling of the Owner’s Land, Mauna Loa shall prepare Owner’s Land for planting and shall plant grafted macadamia trees of such variety or varieties of root stock and scion wood in accordance with proven sound agricultural practices used by Mauna Loa in its own orchards. Mauna Loa shall plant approximately 97 macadamia trees to the acre upon that portion of Owner’s Land which is to be devoted to the planting of macadamia trees. The cost of any macadamia trees or windbreak trees which are replants during the term of this Agreement, shall be charged to Owner at the Mauna Loa market value of such trees without mark-up at the time that they are planted and at no charge if the replanting is required because of Mauna Loa’s error.

Section 3.

Irrigation, Orchard Care, etc.

3.1   Installation of Irrigation System.   (A)   As part of the consideration for Owner’s execution of this Agreement, Mauna Loa hereby agrees to install in accordance with sound irrigation practices for macadamia nut orchards

4

and at Mauna Loa’s sole cost and expense, a primary water irrigation distribution system (the “Primary System”) capable of supplying a maximum aggregate annual requirement of 215 million gallons (the “Maximum Requirement”) as described in Alternate IV of Exhibit E-2 attached hereto, jointly to Parcel A, described in that Agricultural Lease between the parties of even date hereof, and Parcel B, described in this Agricultural License, to an in-field drip irrigation system located on Owner’s land. Except for water shortgages caused by nature and not by matters within the control of Mauna Loa or Ka’u Sugar Co., Mauna Loa agrees to supply said 215 million gallons of water to Owner from the Palima Well. The Primary System shall consist of all equipment and materials required to make it operable, including but not limited to a pumping station, a lift station and a water pipeline capable of supplying the Maximum Requirement. The Primary System shall be located as described in Exhibit               .

(B)   Mauna Loa shall also install an in-field drip irrigation system (the “Drip System”). The Drip System shall be installed in accordance with sound irrigation practices for macadamia nut orchards and shall be capable of being utilized in conjunction with the Primary System as is required to irrigate macadamia nut orchards up to the Maximum Requirement. The cost of installation of the Drip System shall be borne by Owner.

(C)   The Primary System and the Drip System shall be installed in accordance with plans approved by Owner, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Mauna Loa has provided Owner with a water resource study

5

consisting of fourteen (14) pages dated March 8, 1979, and it is understood that water shall be distributed to Owner in accordance with Alternate IV shown in such study, attached hereto as Exhibit E-2, jointly to Parcel A, described in that Agricultural Lease between the parties of even date hereof, and Parcel B, described in this Agricultural License.

(D)  For a period one (1) year after the installation of the Primary System, Mauna Loa shall at its sole cost and expense be responsible for maintaining, repairing and renewing the Primary System. For a period of one (1) year after the installation of the Drip System, Mauna Loa shall at its sole cost and expense be responsible for maintaining, repairing and renewing the Drip System, but limited to defects caused by poor materials or workmanship. During the first year owner shall pay owner’s pro rata share of operating, and insurance premium, costs. Thereafter the owner’s pro rata share of costs of operating, insurance premiums, maintenance, repair and renewal of the Primary System shall be charged back to Owner, but such costs shall not exceed those which would be customarily charged by an independent third party. The costs of operating, insurance premiums, maintenance, repair and renewal of the Drip System shall be at Owner’s expense as a “Reimbursable Cost” in accordance with Section 4 hereof, except that Mauna Loa shall during the first year only at its expense be responsible for defects caused by poor materials or workmanship. Mauna Loa at its expense (subject to the pro rata charge provision above) shall carry insurance to insure the Primary System against casualty.

6

(E)   Mauna Loa hereby agrees to deliver water to Owner’s Land during the term of this Lease in the quantities set forth above (recognizing that normally irrigation is required for only 4 or 5 months per year on these parcels) at no additional charge or cost to Owner, except as set forth above, subject to the exceptions set forth below. Owner recognizes that Mauna Loa is in no way guaranteeing this supply of water and is not responsible if for reasons beyond Mauna Loa’s control the supply is not available.

3.1.1.       In the event of a water shortage due to natural causes and not to additional utilization of the water source by Mauna Loa or persons authorized by Mauna Loa, such that Mauna Loa is unable to deliver to Owner the supply provided for above, Mauna Loa’s sole responsibility shall be to deliver to Owner, a pro rata share of water actually available (exclusive of any excess water sold to Owner under the terms of Section 3.1.6. below) based upon Owner’s percentage of use of water to the total amount of water measured in the year prior to shortage. It is noted for informational purposes only, and without contractual significance, that current planning for the irrigation system provides for a connecting line between the Pahala Shaft and the Palima Well for emergency use.

3.1.2.       If a water shortgage (other than shortage caused by Mauna Loa’s increased demand for water) can be alleviated by additional capital investment in the Palima Well, Owner shall share pro rata with Mauna Loa the amount of such investment on an actual acreage served basis at the time of such investment.

7

3.1.3.       If for any reason, other than sufficiency of water supply as set forth above, Mauna Loa wishes to cease delivery of water from the Palima Well, Mauna Loa may, at its sole cost and expense, drill a well or wells and install all the appurtenances to a new irrigation system (including any necessary adjustments to the Drip System) on Owner’s Land (including the adjacent 3,485 acre parcel described as TMK 9-6-13-06) at a location or locations to be mutally agreed upon by Owner and Mauna Loa pursuant to an easement to be granted by Owner, neither parties’ agreement to such new location to be unreasonably withheld. The original Primary System and any replacement system, as provided for in this paragraph, shall remain the property of Mauna Loa throughout the term of this Agreement and thereafter. Throughout the term of this Agreement Mauna Loa agrees not to remove this Primary System and to continue to maintain it according to the cost provisions in this agreement. Upon the successful completion of such new well and the delivery of water therefrom to Owner’s Lands in the manner and amounts provided for in Section 3.1 above, Mauna Loa shall no longer be obligated to deliver water to Owner from the Palima Well system.

3.1.4.       In the event Owner drills new wells independently of Mauna Loa on its lands mauka of the boundary line between TMK 9-6-13-04 & 05 and 9-6-13-06, Mauna Loa’s obligations to provide water to Owner’s Land from the Palima Well will immediately terminate.

3.1.5        In the event it is determined that the State of Hawaii (the “State”) owns the water which is the subject of this Agreement and the State assesses a charge to

8

Mauna Loa (or any other party from whom it obtains water) for utilization of the water, then Owner shall pay to Mauna Loa its pro-rata share of such charge.

3.1.6.       Water is provided by Mauna Loa to Owner under this Agreement only for use in developing and maintaining macadamia orchards, for which Mauna Loa has the right pursuant to Lease or License to manage and to purchase the nut supply. Owner and Mauna Loa recognize that the maximum obligation to deliver water as stated above in no way precludes Mauna Loa making available to Owner, at Owner’s request and cost, excess water available in the system (over and above the present and future needs of C. Brewer and Company, Limited and all of its subsidiaries plus their contractual obligations) to serve other Owner requirements. Further, for its other requirements, Owner will have first call on water from this system which is in excess to the present and future needs of C. Brewer and Company, Limited and all of its subsidiaries plus their contractual obligations, except that Owner’s future requirements once established will have precedence to water prior to any new contractual obligations of C. Brewer or any of its subsidiaries which arise thereafter: Should water be sold from Mauna Loa to Owner from this system for other purposes than to irrigate macadamia orchards for which Mauna Loa has the Lease or License with right to manage and to purchase the nut supply, the cost of the water to Owner shall be determined by comparison with other agricultural water charges then current on the Island of Hawaii.

Mauna Loa has the obligation, subject to reimbursement as provided elsewhere in this Agreement throughout

9

the term of this Agreement to irrigate the orchards (if water is available under the terms of this Agreement) and to maintain the in-field drip irrigation system at competitive cost.

3.2           Orchard Care and Maintenance. Mauna Loa shall conduct all such operations and perform all such services as shall be necessary in order to provide for the economical growth and yield of the Owner’s macadamia orchard in accordance with proven sound agricultural practices used by Mauna Loa in the planting, cultivation and harvesting of its own macadamia orchards and Owner agrees to follow Mauna Loa’s advice, including but not limited to, the management of the following: ground cover, replanting, tree bracing, cultivation, weed control, pest control, fertilization, pruning, hedging, transplanting, branch disposal, irrigation, and soil and plant tissue analysis, and in order to provide for the protection of the planted acreage through the maintenance of such windbreaks as may be reasonably necessary for such purposes. Mauna Loa shall maintain at Owner’s expense such field roads as may be reasonably necessary for the conduct of its operations under Sections 3.2 and 3.3 hereof.

3.3           Harvesting. Mauna Loa shall conduct all such operations and perform all such services as shall be necessary, in accordance with proven sound harvesting practices used by Mauna Loa in its own macadamia orchards in the most economical manner which the terrain permits, and Owner agrees to follow Mauna Loa’s advice, in order to harvest macadamia nuts produced in the Owner’s Orchard, and

10

to transport such nuts to Mauna Loa’s receiving station at Ka’u for husking.

3.4         Procurement and Employment of Equipment, etc.   Mauna Loa either now owns or from time to time shall procure in its own name and shall employ the use of all of such tools, supplies, materials and equipment as shall be reasonably necessary for the conduct of the operations and the performance of the services required to be conducted and/or performed hereunder by Mauna Loa, without any capital expenditure cost to the Owner except as herein specifically provided, or as mutually agreed to in the future.

3.5         Employment of Personnel.   In the performance of its obligations hereunder Mauna Loa shall employ, train and supervise such personnel, as shall be reasonably necessary for the efficient conduct of the orchard operations as set forth herein. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to prohibit Mauna Loa from subcontracting to others any portion of the work required hereunder, if such work would normally be subcontracted for work in Mauna Loa’s own macadamia orchards. Mauna Loa, being fully responsible for the general management of the Owner’s Orchard, shall have full authority over the performance of any such subcontract. However Mauna Loa may not subcontract its duties under this Agreement in their entirety.

Mauna Loa shall comply with all requirements of federal and state law with respect to employment of personnel, including but not limited to all necessary insurance coverages under worker’s compensation laws. Mauna Loa shall indemnify and hold Owner harmless from and against

11

any and all claims, obligations, liabilities or demands with respect to and arising out of the performance of Mauna Loa’s obligations under this License and the employment of Mauna Loa’s personnel and agents on Owner’s Lands.

3.6         Accounting.   At all times during the term of this Agreement Mauna Loa shall keep full and accurate accounts and complete records, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, showing all costs, advances, payments, expenditures and liabilities, and all other data which shall be necessary for the computation of the payments to be made by the Owner hereunder as hereinafter provided in Section 4 of this Agreement. Mauna Loa shall cause such accounts and records to be audited annually by the independent auditor regularly employed by Mauna Loa and as soon as practicable following the end of each calendar year during the term of this Agreement, such auditor shall render to Mauna Loa a statement for the purpose of verifying the amount of the Reimbursable Costs (hereinafter defined) paid or incurred by Mauna Loa and the amount of fees payable to Mauna Loa with respect to such year. Upon its receipt of such statement Mauna Loa shall deliver a copy thereof to the Owner and the Owner shall have a period 180 days after its receipt thereof to raise objections with respect thereto. The auditor’s determination as to the amount of such Reimbursable Costs and fees shall be binding unless the Owner shall have made objections thereto in writing to Mauna Loa within such 180-day period. Owner shall have the right to examine business records supporting the financial statements or material to the matters set forth therein and to employ

12

auditors to verify the financial statements submitted to it by Mauna Loa. In the event they contain errors which result in the Owner having been overcharged by 2% or more, Mauna Loa shall pay all reasonable expenses incurred by Owner in making such verification and shall pay Owner the amount of any such overcharge.

3.7         Home Office and Other Support Services and Facilities.   At all times during the term of this Agreement Mauna Loa shall provide such centralized office and other support services and facilities as may be necessary or appropriate in order to provide adequate support for all field operations hereunder, including without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, staff management, accounting, purchasing, industrial relations, engineering, agricultural, garage and warehouse services and facilities.

3.8         Protection of Ownership.   At all times during the term of this Agreement Owner shall take any and all such actions as are customarily taken by a landowner in the husbanding of his property, including without limitation the making of surveys, the payment of taxes and assessments, the procurement of necessary permits and licenses, the insurance of properties (including trees), the insurance against liabilities, and the compliance with all laws, ordinances and governmental regulations relating to the ownership and/or use of the Owner’s Land. It is the intent of this Agreement that Owner, not Mauna Loa, pay all of the expenses relating to the Land and the orchards thereon. When requested by Owner, Mauna Loa shall assist Owner in the making of surveys, the processing of tax appeals, if any, and

13

the procurement of necessary permits, licenses, insurance and other items which the Owner requires for the proper use of the Land for macadamia purposes.

3.9         Additional Services.   From time to time during the term of this Agreement Mauna Loa shall perform any and all such additional services as may be reasonably requested in writing by the Owner and agreed upon in writing by Mauna Loa, at a cost to be agreed upon.

3.9.1          Agricultural Practices.   In the performance of its obligations hereunder Mauna Loa shall conduct all of its agricultural operations in accordance with proven sound agricultural practices use by Mauna Loa in its own macadamia orchards and Owner agrees to follow Mauna Loa’s advice. Owner recognizes that Mauna Loa gives no guarantees as to the yields from the orchards, except as may be specifically set forth herein. The agricultural risks associated with any growing crop and the natural risks in the area are recognized and assumed by Owner.

SECTION 4.

Reimbursement of Costs and Payment of Fees

4.1         Reports and Payments.   The license fee due from Mauna Loa to Owner shall be offset by Reimbursable Costs and Fees due from Owner to Mauna Loa as set forth in this Section. Mauna Loa will furnish to the Owner unaudited reports reflecting the accrual of Reimbursable Costs and Management Fee hereunder, monthly during the term of this Agreement. Owner will pay these monthly amounts of Reimbursable Costs and Management Fee within 30 days of the date of each report if these Costs and Fees are not offset when

14

Mauna Loa pays its License Fee to Owner as measured by Mauna Loa’s purchase of nuts from Owner. Interest shall accrue against Owner at the rate of l% per month on any unpaid amounts.

4.2         Reimbursable Costs.   The term “Reimbursable Costs” as used herein shall not include any capital expenditures except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement and shall mean the following costs incurred by Mauna Loa in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.

(a)               direct hourly wages, overtime pay, payroll taxes, insurance and other fringe benefits paid with respect to personnel working under this Agreement.

(b)              amounts paid for replanted windbreak and macadamia trees, unless such replanting is required because Mauna Loa failed to follow said proven sound agricultural or harvesting practices.

(c)               costs (including transportation costs) incurred for fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, rodenticides and other materials, used in the Owner’s Orchard;

(d)              costs incurred for expendable tools and supplies;

(e)               “costs” as defined in sub-Section 4.2 (c) and (d) above shall be invoice cost plus a 5% up charge to cover costs of processing and filling orders and delivery of purchases (where not otherwise specifically invoiced) to Ka’u;

15

(f)                 service charges for the use of equipment employed in the Owner’s Orchard, which shall be charged to the Owner at the same rate customarily charged by Mauna Loa to other C. Brewer subsidiaries (this “intercompany rate” is currently equal to 125% of internal charge out rate);

(g)              irrigation - costs incurred to construct and operate the in-field irrigation system and to maintain and repair and renew it and to pump and deliver water to the irrigation system and apply water to the orchards. The payment for water delivered to Owner’s land shall equal all costs of producing the water and the pumping and delivery of it to Owner’s lands (including cost of maintaining, repairing and renewing the Primary distribution system) save and except as provided in Section 3.1(D) above;

(h)              Ka’u overhead which applies to each item (a) through (g) above - an allocation of Ka’u Facility overhead shall be made at the rate of 20% times total Reimbursable Costs;

(i)                  Costs which Mauna Loa may incur to repair damage which it by gross negligence or deliberately caused shall not constitute reimbursable cost.

(j)                  in the event that the State or any governmental agency imposes a sales tax or

16

general excise tax on service rendered or supplies and materials provided, such tax shall become a Reimbursable Cost under this Agreement.

(k)               In no case, without prior co-ordination and concurrence of Owner, will Owner’s direct cost per acre, net of all percentage up charges as set forth in this Section 4, exceed 110% of Mauna Loa’s direct cost per year for comparable orchards.

4.3         Management Fee.   For each year of this Agreement, Owner shall pay to Mauna Loa, in accordance with monthly statements, a Management Fee, as compensation for services rendered hereunder, in the amount of 20% of total Reimbursable Costs (as defined in Section 4.2 above but not including taxes under 4.2 [j]).

SECTION 5.

License Fee Measured By Nuts Produced

5.1         Delivery and Acceptance of Crops.   As license fee, Mauna Loa shall purchase, as set forth herein, from Owner all macadamia nuts produced on Owner’s Land. Mauna Loa shall deliver from time to time during the term of this Agreement to Mauna Loa’s Ka’u receiving station all of the in-husk macadamia nuts produced on the Owner’s Land. The Owner shall not be obligated hereunder to deliver to Mauna Loa, and Mauna Loa shall not be obligated hereunder to accept any macadamia crops other than those produced upon the Owner’s Acreage. Title to the nuts and risk of loss shall

17

pass from Owner to Mauna Loa at the time that Mauna Loa loads the in husk nuts into Mauna Loa’s trucks for delivery to the Ka’u receiving station.

5.2         Husking, Weighing

(a)               Husking.   After delivery to Mauna Loa at its Ka’u receiving station of each shipment of macadamia nuts hereunder, the total shipment shall be husked by Mauna Loa with the cost thereof paid by Owner.

(b)              Weighing.   As soon as practicable following husking of the Owner’s macadamia nuts as aforesaid, Mauna Loa shall weigh the total shipment of the husked macadamia nuts in order to determine the wet-in-shell weight of the shipment. As hereinafter used, the term “shipment” shall mean all deliveries of macadamia nuts from the Owner to Mauna Loa during each day. In weighing the shipments Mauna Loa from time to time shall employ such methods and procedures as will enable Mauna Loa with as much accuracy as may be reasonably practicable to ascertain the wet-in-shell weight of the nuts contained in shipment.

SECTION 6.

6.1         Payments of the License Fee

(a)               Payments.   Within thirty days after the end of each calendar month during the term of this Agreement in which the Owner has

18

delivered one or more shipments of macadamia nuts to Mauna Loa hereunder, Mauna Loa shall furnish to the Owner a detailed statement evidencing the calculation of the license fee payment to be made by Mauna Loa with respect to shipments delivered to Mauna Loa during such month. Payments shall be made within thirty days after the end of the calendar month in which such shipments were delivered, if this amount exceeds the Reimbursable Costs and Management Fees due from Owner to Mauna Loa under Section 4 hereof. Interest shall accrue against Mauna Loa at the rate of 1% per month on any unpaid amounts.

(b)              Purchase Price.   The purchase price per pound of wet-in-shell nut production shall consist of two elements. Fifty percent of the price will be computed at 37% of the MAUNA LOA average wholesale list price as published in the MAUNA LOA Hawaii Wholesale Price List. This wholesale price will be adjusted to convert kernel price to a wet-in-shell basis. Fifty percent of the price will be computed at the actual price paid as quoted in the current issue of “HAWAII MACADAMIA NUTS ANNUAL SUMMARY” published by the Hawaii Agricultural Reporting Service, for the most current crop year listed. Payments for each crop year will be adjusted after the average price for the

19

entire year has been published. If the “HAWAII MACADAMIA NUTS ANNUAL SUMMARY” report is changed, discontinued, or otherwise not available, the best available industry recognized objective documentation will be substituted. Payments shall be computed using wet-in-shell weight net of defective nuts and kernels and price established as described in Attachment A.

SECTION 7.

Management Representatives

For convenience of operation hereunder, each of the Owner and Mauna Loa shall designate one representative to effectuate decisions of their principals and to serve as the channel of communication for disseminating information to and securing necessary action by their principals. The representative of any party hereto may be changed from time to time by written notice by such party to the other party hereto.

SECTION 8.

Force Majeure

Neither of the parties hereto shall be liable or accountable to the other party for any delay in complying or any failure to comply with any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement in the event that such failure shall have been caused by an act of God, strike, lockout, public enemy, war, civil commotion, riot, condemnation, judicial or governmental order or other requirements of

20

law (such as but not limited to governmental regulations concerning hazards of marketing or consumption of macadamia nuts) or the refusal or failure of any governmental office or officer to grant any permit or order necessary for compliance herewith by either party hereto, nor shall either of the parties hereto be liable or accountable to the other party for any damages arising from any such delay or failure. Owner purchased the premises with an awareness of the natural risks such as but not limited to earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, floods, winds, etc., and the agricultural risks and assumes those risks.

SECTION 9.

Termination

(a)                Mutual Agreement.   This Agreement may be terminated, in whole or in part, at any time by the mutual agreement in writing of the parties hereto.

(b)                Insolvency, etc.   Should either party hereto be declared bankrupt following the filing of a voluntary or involuntary petition, or be declared insolvent, or enter into any composition with creditors, or execute an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or should a receiver or trustee be appointed by any court or governmental agency to administer the affairs or assets of either party hereto, and is not removed within 60 days of such appointment, the other party hereto at its option may cancel and terminate this Agreement upon giving not less than 15 days’ written notice to the bankrupt or insolvent party.

(c)                Default.   If either party hereto shall default in the performance of any of its obligations

21

hereunder the other party may, at any time, while such default continues, by written notice specifying such default, demand the performance of such obligations. Upon the failure of the other to cure such default within 30 days from the date of such demand, this dispute shall be immediately referred to arbitration, pursuant to Section 14 without the 60 day time restriction specified therein.

(d)              Destruction or Condemnation.   In the event of the destruction or condemnation of any or all of the Owner’s Land, the Owner shall at Owner’s expense restore the premises to the same condition as prior to the destruction if it can be reasonably restored. If it cannot be reasonably restored this Agreement shall terminate as to that portion of Owner’s Land. In the event of condemnation this License shall terminate as to the condemned portion and be of no further force or effect, but both Owner and Mauna Loa may pursue their separate rights against the condemning authority.

(e)               Use of Land.   Mauna Loa covenants and warrants unto Owner that Mauna Loa will utilize the Owner’s Land only for the production of macadamia nuts and for no other use whatsoever during the term of this Agreement, and will keep all of Owner’s Land planted with macadamia and windbreak trees during the entire term of this Agreement. Provided, however, that Owner may from time to time withdraw certain portions of Owner’s Land (the “withdrawn land”) and substitute therefore other suitable acreage (the “substitute land”) having grafted macadamia trees of comparable age and yield. Upon written notice by Owner to Mauna Loa, this Agreement shall terminate as to the withdrawn land and shall

22

immediately commence as to the substitute land. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the withdrawn land shall not be used on a long-term basis for purposes of growing macadamia nuts, and any macadamia nuts grown on the withdrawn land following withdrawal by Owner shall be subject to Sections 4 and 5 of this Agricultural License. Owner shall at all times have access to the managed orchards and may have Mauna Loa remove scion wood therefrom so long as it would not damage the trees for Owner’s use in the State of Hawaii and not for resale or export as scion wood or grafted trees.

(f)               Mauna Loa recognizes that for Owner to use or develop its lands adjacent to Parcels A and B it will require adequate roadway and utility access to the adjacent lands. It is agreed that Owner at its expense may install such roadways, utility lines, signs and other improvements in such manner and at such places as it determines. In doing so it will interfere as little as possible with Mauna Loa’s development and management of the orchards on Parcels A and B and, as provided in Section 9(e) above, it may substitute other acreage in the event such improvements adversely affect the orchards’ production of macadamia nuts.

SECTION 10.

Waiver

The failure of either party hereto to take advantage of any default or breach of agreement on the part of the other party shall not be construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any custom or practice which may grow up between the parties in the course of administering this Agreement be

23

construed to waive or to lessen the right of either party hereto to insist upon the performance by the other party of any term, provision or condition hereof, or to exercise any rights given it on account of any such default. A waiver by either party hereto of a particular breach or default shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the same or any other subsequent breach or default. The acceptance of payments hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any breach of any term, provision or condition of this Agreement.

SECTION 11.

Assignment

Neither of the parties hereto may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder to any other person or legal entity without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. Any consent or approval required under this Agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld and no charge for the giving of such consent or approval shall be made. This Agreement shall bind all successors to the land, if any, of Owner, and may be recorded, or a short form of it will be signed by the parties and may be recorded.

SECTION 12.

First Refusal Right on Future Macadamia Nut Orchards of Owner

If Owner or any of its affiliates (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Owners”) develop or acquire any other macadamia nut orchards in the county of Hawaii, and the Owners determine to enter into a lease, or license or orchard management or development agreement for such orchards

24

(a “Proposed Agreement”), then prior to entering into a Proposed Agreement with a person or entity other than Mauna Loa or its affilitates (a “Third Party”) the Owners shall first offer to enter into an agreement with Mauna Loa upon the same terms and conditions as the Proposed Agreement with the Third Party.

SAMPLING PROCEDURE SUMMARY

From a delivered lot of Wet-in-Shell (W. I. S.) nuts, a random sample of approximately 20 pounds is drawn from throughout the lot and the moisture content analyzed. The sample is split into two 10 pound samples. One sample is analyzed to determine saleable kernel weight. The second is held for a period to serve as a confirmation sample should one be required, and is then returned to the commercial lot for processing. A shipment can be comprised of one or more loads delivered in a single day for IASCO. However, one shipment, for sampling purposes, will consist of nuts harvested by the same method where practicable. If the confirmation sample is tested, an average of the results of the two samples will be used.

Both in-shell and kernel weight and moisture content for the W. I. S. nuts are determined.

The W. I. S. nuts are dried to a constant weight, cracked and the kernels separated from the shells. The kernels are inspected to remove and weigh spoilage and subsequently determine the kernel spoilage as a percentage of the gross W. I. S. sample weight.

The kernels are roasted, inspected and sorted into Fancy, Choice and Substandard grades. The percent Fancy and Choice of the total weight of the kernels recovered is determined.

The purchase price per pound of W. I. S. nut production shall consist of two elements; 60% (or 50%) of the price will be computed at 37% of the MAUNA LOA average wholesale list price as published in the Mauna Loa Hawaii Wholesale Price List weighted according to the percentage of Choice and Fancy grades recovered from the shipment sample evaluation. (60% relates to the 285-acre parcel and 50% will be used for all other acreage included in this contract.) Should Choice grade not be available for commercial sale, then the price for Choice grade nuts will be determined as a percent reduction from

the published price for Fancy grade as the average of the prior three years appearing in the Mauna Loa Hawaii Wholesale Price List immediately preceding removal of Choice quality from general marketing as evidenced by removal from the Mauna Loa Hawaii Wholesale Price List. This wholesale price will be adjusted to convert kernel price to a W. I. S. basis. Forty percent (or 50%) of the price will be computed at the actual price paid as quoted in the current issue of “Hawaii Macadamia Nuts Annual Summary” published by the Hawaii Agriculture Reporting Service for the most current crop year listed. Payments shall be computed using W. I. S. weight net of spoilage adjusted to State’s average in-shell moisture content which is currently assumed to be 19%.
