SUBORDINATED PROMISSORY NOTE

 

December 21, 2004   $12,000,000

 

Eagle Family Foods, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby
promises to pay to Dairy Farmers of America, Inc., a Kansas marketing
cooperative association (together with its successors and Permitted Assigns, the
“Holder”), the aggregate principal amount of $12,000,000 (as the same may be
adjusted in accordance with the provisions hereof), together with interest
thereon calculated from the date hereof in accordance with the provisions of
this Subordinated Promissory Note (this “Note”).

 

1. Interest. Interest shall accrue on a daily basis at a rate equal to 90-Day
LIBOR as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time plus two percent
(2%) per annum (or, if less, at the highest rate then permitted under applicable
law) (calculated on the basis of a 360 day year) on the unpaid principal amount
outstanding from time to time. To the extent not prohibited by the terms of
Section 3 hereof, interest shall be due and payable in arrears in cash by the
Company to the Holder under this Note on the last business day of each calendar
quarter, beginning March 31 2005 (each such business day, a “Payment Date”). If
interest is not paid on a Payment Date because such payment is prohibited by the
provisions of Section 3 hereof, interest will accrue on a daily basis and
compound on a quarterly basis and, to the extent that any accrued or compounded
interest has not theretofore been paid, such accrued and compounded interest
shall be paid as soon as permitted in accordance with Section 3 hereof. Any
interest (including accrued interest and compounded interest) which has not
theretofore been paid shall be paid in full on the date on which the final
principal payment on this Note is made.

 

2. Principal.

 

(a) Generally. The outstanding principal amount and all accrued but unpaid
interest shall be paid in full on the first to occur of (i) November 1, 2007,
(ii) a Sale of the Company or (iii) a Recapitalization.

 

(b) Optional Prepayment. Subject to Section 3 hereof, the Company shall be
entitled to prepay all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of
this Note without premium or penalty at any time. Upon any such optional
prepayment, the Company shall pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the
principal amount so prepaid.

 

3. Subordination; Restrictions on Payment.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, the obligations of
the Company on or in respect of this Note (including, without limitation, the
principal, interest, fees and charges on this Note) shall be subordinate and
junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set
forth, to all Superior Debt.

 

(b) Anything in this Note to the contrary notwithstanding, after (i) notice
(such notice, the “Payment Default Blockage Notice”) from any holder of Superior
Debt has been received by the Holder that any payment of the principal of or
interest, fees or other amounts on any Superior Debt has not been paid when due,
whether at stated maturity, by mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or
otherwise (each, a “Payment Default”) and remains unpaid or (ii) notice from the
Designated Holder has been received by the Holder that an event of default under
any Superior Debt Agreement other than as described in clause (b)(i) above has
occurred and is continuing (such notice, the “Ordinary Default Blockage Notice”
and together with the Payment Default Blockage Notice, the “Blockage Notices”),
the Company shall not make, nor shall the Holder accept, any payments (whether
in cash, securities or other property but excluding any amounts which are setoff
pursuant to the provisions of this Note against the outstanding principal amount
and accrued but unpaid interest on this Note) of principal, interest or other
amounts due or past due (other than reasonable fees and expenses in connection
with amendments, waivers and forbearances) until, in the case of clause (b)(i)
above, the Payment Default no longer exists and in the case of clause (b)(ii),
the earlier of (x) the cessation of such event of default or (y) 180 days after
the receipt of the applicable Ordinary Default Blockage Notice by the Holder.
The Holder shall immediately deliver any Blockage Notice that it receives to the
Company. The Holder shall not be required to honor more than four (4) Ordinary
Default Blockage Notices, and no Ordinary Default Blockage Notice shall be
effective unless 270 days have passed since the last notice for an Ordinary
Default.

 

(c) Any amendment or modification of the terms of Sections 1, 2 or 3 of this
Note shall not be effective unless each holder or transferee of Superior Debt
(or the Designated Holder on behalf of such holder as provided in the applicable
Superior Debt Documents) so consents in writing.

 

(d) If, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3 of this Note, any payment or
distribution of any character (whether in cash, securities or other property but
excluding any amounts which are setoff pursuant to the provisions of this Note
against the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest on this
Note) or any security shall be received by the Holder in contravention of this
Section 3 and before all the Superior Debt (other than contingent indemnity
obligations) shall have been paid in full in cash, such payment, distribution or
security shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be immediately
paid over or delivered or transferred to, the Designated Holder for application
first for the payment in full of the obligations under the Senior Credit
Agreement and thereafter according to the priorities of other Superior Debt and
ratably among the holders of such other class of Superior Debt. Any such
payments received by the holder of this Note and delivered to the holders of the
Superior Debt shall be deemed not to be a payment on this Note for any reason
whatsoever and the indebtedness under this Note shall remain as if such
erroneous payment had never been paid by the Company or received by the Holder.
In the event of the failure of Holder to endorse or assign any such payment,
distribution or security, each holder of any Superior Debt is hereby irrevocably
authorized to endorse or assign the same.

 

(e) No present or future holder of Superior Debt shall be prejudiced in its
right to enforce the provisions of Section 3 of this Note by any act or failure
to act on the part of the Company.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(f) From and after the date of the receipt of any Blockage Notice by the Holder
pursuant to the terms of this Section 3 (each of the events giving rise to the
Blockage Notice or such Event of Default, a “Blockage Event”), the Holder shall
not take or continue any action, or exercise or continue to exercise any rights,
remedies or powers under the terms of this Note, or exercise or continue to
exercise any other right or remedy at law or equity that the Holder might
otherwise possess, to collect any amount due and payable in respect of this
Note, including, without limitation, the acceleration of this Note, the
commencement of any foreclosure on any lien or security interest, the filing of
any petition in bankruptcy or the taking advantage of any other insolvency law
of any jurisdiction (and shall discontinue and cease any such actions including
if this Note has already been accelerated, the Holder will, immediately upon
becoming aware of the occurrence of such Blockage Event, rescind such
acceleration), until:

 

  (i) the Superior Debt (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have
been fully and finally paid (in cash) and all lending commitments under the
Senior Credit Agreement shall have terminated;

 

  (ii) the occurrence of an Insolvency Event;

 

  (iii) the written consent of the applicable requisite holders of Superior Debt
terminating the Blockage Notice;

 

  (iv) the Event of Default giving rise to the Blockage Notice shall have been
cured or waived; or

 

  (v) a period of 180 days commencing on the date of the Ordinary Default
Blockage Notice, if applicable, shall have elapsed.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any permissible action taken by the Holder, the
Holder shall not be entitled to receive any payment in contravention of the
other provisions of this Section 3 before all Superior Debt (other than
contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been paid in full in cash and all
lending commitments under the Senior Credit Agreement shall have terminated, but
shall be entitled to (a) file proofs of claim and other similar actions
(provided, however, that if the Holder has not filed a proof claim within five
(5) days of the bar for such filing, the holders of the Superior Debt may file
such proof of claim), (b) vote its claims with respect to the obligations under
this Note in any bankruptcy proceeding as long as the rights of any holder of
Superior Debt are not adversely affected and (c) retain distribution of
securities that are subordinated on substantially the same terms hereof.

 

(g) If any payment or distribution to which Holder would otherwise have been
entitled but for the provisions of this Section 3 shall have been applied,
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3, to the payment of Superior Debt,
then and in such case and to such extent, the Holder following payment in full
in cash of the Superior Debt (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and
the termination of all lending commitments under the Senior Credit Agreement
shall be entitled to receive any and all further payments or distributions
applicable to Superior Debt, and following payment in full in cash of the
Superior Debt (other than contingent indemnity obligations), shall be subrogated
to the rights of the holders of the Superior Debt to receive distributions
applicable to the Superior Debt, in each case until this Note shall have been
paid in full in cash or such other consideration acceptable to the Holder in its
sole discretion. If the Holder has been subrogated to the rights of the holders
of Superior Debt due to the operation of this Section 3(j), the Company agrees
to take all such reasonable actions as are requested by the

 

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Holder in order to cause the Holder to obtain payments from the Company with
respect to such subrogation rights as soon as possible.

 

(h) The provisions of this Section 3 are solely for the purpose of defining the
relative rights of the holders of Superior Debt, on the one hand, and the Holder
on the other, against the Company and its assets, and nothing herein is intended
to or shall impair, as between the Company and the Holder, the obligations of
this Company under this Note, to pay to the Holder the principal and interest on
this Note as and when they become due and payable in accordance with their
terms, or is intended to or will affect the relative rights of the Holder and
creditors of the Company other than the holders of the Superior Debt, nor,
except as provided in this Section 3, will anything herein or therein prevent
the Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted under this Note
subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 3 of the holders of Superior
Debt in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the
exercise of any such remedy and subject to this Section 3. The provisions of
this Section 3 are for the benefit of the holders of Superior Debt, and may be
enforced by, the Designated Holder.

due 2008.

interest thereof, within five (5) business days after the due date thereof;

 

  (ii) the Company breaches any term of this Note and fails to remedy the same

  (iv) the Superior Debt has become due and payable in full by acceleration
prior to maturity.

court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body.

  (i) If any Event of Default of the type described in Section 5(a)(i), Section
5(a)(ii) or Section 5(a)(iv) has occurred and is continuing, the Holder may
declare all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this

 

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note (together with all accrued interest thereon and all other amounts due and
payable with respect thereto) to be immediately due and payable and may demand
immediate payment of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of
this Note (together with all such other amounts then due and payable). If the
Holder demands immediate payment of all or any portion of this Note, the Company
shall immediately pay to the Holder all amounts due and payable with respect to
this Note.

notice of protest and demand, dishonor and nonpayment of this Note, and

time to time and that the Holder may accept security for this Note or release
security for this Note, all without in any way affecting the liability of the
Company hereunder.

Note, the Company shall deliver to Holder (i) a quarterly, unaudited
consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its subsidiaries and related

sixty (60) days following the end of each fiscal quarter starting with the

U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (subject to the absence of

with any employee of Company or its Subsidiaries.

 

(c) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to,
declare, redeem or make any distribution or payment or other distribution of
cash on account of any equity interest in such Person, except (i) that the

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

of the Company to make any payment or distribution, or take any of the actions,
referred to in Section 4.05 of the Indenture, dated as of January 23, 1998 (the

be amended only with the consent of the Company and the Holder, and the Company
may take any action prohibited under this Note, or omit to perform any act

owing is not paid when due at any stated or accelerated maturity, the party
owing such amount shall pay, in addition to such amount, all reasonable
out-of-pocket costs of collection of the collecting party, including the
collecting party’s reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees. Subject to Section

its rights under this Note as a result of such Event of Default.

 

9. Usury Savings Clause. The Company and the Holder intend to comply at all
times with applicable usury laws. If at any time such laws would render usurious
any amounts due under this Note under applicable law, then it is the Company’s
and the Holder’s express intention that the Company not be required to pay
interest on this Note at a rate in excess of the maximum lawful rate, that the
provisions of this Section 9 shall control over all other provisions of this
Note which may be in apparent conflict hereunder, that such excess amount shall
be immediately credited to the principal balance of this Note, and the
provisions hereof shall immediately be reformed and the amounts thereafter
decreased, so as to comply with the then applicable usury law, but so as to
permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise due under this Note.
