Exhibit 10.12

GENERAL MILLS, INC.

SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFITS TRUST

TRUST AGREEMENT

          This TRUST AGREEMENT, amended and restated as of September 26, 1988,
is between General Mills, Inc. (the “Grantor”) and Norwest Bank Minnesota, N.A.
(formerly known as Norwest Bank Minneapolis, N.A.) (the “Trustee”).

          1.        Purpose. The purpose of this trust (the “Trust”), originally
established on February 9, 1987, is to provide a vehicle to (a) hold assets of
the Grantor as a reserve for the discharge of the Grantor’s obligations to
certain individuals (the “Beneficiaries”) entitled to receive benefits under the
Supplemental Savings Plan of General Mills, Inc., amended and restated as of
January 1, 1986, and any other plan of deferred compensation that the Grantor so
designates in writing to the Trustee, including those plans designated in
Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Plans”), and (b) invest,
reinvest, disburse and distribute those assets and the earnings thereon as
provided hereunder and in the Plans.

          2.        Trust Corpus. The Grantor hereby transfers to the Trustee
and the Trustee hereby accepts and agrees to hold, in trust, the sum of Ten
Dollars ($10.00) plus such cash and/or property, if any, transferred to the
Trustee by the Grantor or on behalf of the Grantor pursuant to obligations
incurred under any or all of the Plans and the earnings thereon, and such cash
and/or property, together with the earnings thereon and together with any other
cash or property received by the Trustee pursuant to Section 8(a) of this Trust
Agreement, shall constitute the trust estate and shall be held, managed and
distributed as hereinafter provided. The Grantor shall

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

execute any and all instruments necessary to vest the Trustee with full title to
the property hereby transferred.

          3.        Grantor Trust. The Trust is intended to be a trust of which
the Grantor is treated as the owner for federal income tax purposes in
accordance with the provisions of Sections 671 through 679 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If the Trustee, in its sole
discretion, deems it necessary or advisable for the Grantor and/or the Trustee
to undertake or refrain from undertaking any actions (including, but not limited
to, making or refraining from making any elections or filings) in order to
ensure that the Grantor is at all times treated as the owner of the Trust for
federal income tax purposes, the Grantor and/or the Trustee will undertake or
refrain from undertaking (as the case may be) such actions. The Grantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Trustee to be its attorney-in-fact for the purpose of
performing any act which the Trustee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or
advisable in order to accomplish the purposes and the intent of this Section 3.
The Trustee shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.

          4.        Irrevocability of Trust. The Trust shall be irrevocable and
may not be altered or amended in any substantive respect, or revoked or
terminated by the Grantor in whole or in part, without the express written
consent of a majority of the Beneficiaries of the Trust; provided, however, that
the Trust may be amended, as may be necessary either (i) to obtain a favorable
ruling from the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the tax consequences of
the establishment and settlement of the Trust, or (ii) to make nonsubstantive
changes, which have no effect upon the amount of any Beneficiary’s benefits, the
time of receipt of benefits, the identity of any recipient of benefits, or the
reversion of any assets to the Grantor prior to the

-2-

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

Trustee’s satisfaction of all the Trustee’s obligations hereunder; provided,
further, that in the event of a “Change of Control” as defined in Section 12.4
of the Retirement Income Plan of General Mills, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as
a “Change in Control”), the Trust may not be altered or amended in any
substantive respect, or revoked or terminated by the Grantor’s successor unless
a majority of the Beneficiaries, determined as of the day before such Change in
Control, agree in writing to such an alteration, amendment, revocation or
termination.

          5.        Investment of Trust Assets.

                    (a)        Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) below,
until the Trustee has distributed all of the assets of the Trust in accordance
with the terms hereof, the Trustee shall invest and reinvest such assets
(without regard to any state law limiting the investment powers of fiduciaries)
in such securities and other property as the Trustee deems advisable,
considering the probable income (including capital appreciation potential) from
any such investment, the probable safety of the assets of the Trust and, where
appropriate, the rate of return at which the assets would have been invested on
behalf of each Beneficiary under any applicable qualified defined contribution
plan maintained by the Grantor. Within the limitations of the foregoing, the
Trustee is specifically authorized to acquire, for cash or on credit, every kind
of property, real, personal or mixed, and to make every kind of investment,
specifically including, but not limited to, corporate and governmental
obligations of every kind, preferred or common stocks, securities of any
regulated investment company or trust, interests in common trust funds now or
hereafter established by a corporate trustee, and property in which the Trustee
owns an undivided interest in any other trust capacity. The Trustee is expressly
authorized and empowered to purchase such insurance in its own name (and with
itself as the

-3-

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

beneficiary) as it shall determine to be necessary or advisable to advance best
the purposes of the Trust and the interests of the Beneficiaries.

                    (b)        The Trustee shall invest and reinvest the assets
of the Trust in accordance with such investment objectives, guidelines,
restrictions or directions as the Grantor may furnish to the Trustee at the time
of the execution of the Trust or at any later date; provided, however, that if
there is a Change in Control the Trust’s investment objectives, guidelines,
restrictions or directions may not be changed by the Grantor’s successor unless
a majority of the Beneficiaries, determined as of the day before such Change in
Control, agree, in writing, to such a change.

          6.        Distribution of Trust Assets.

                    (a)        Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) below,
at such time as a Beneficiary is entitled to a payment under any of the Plans,
he shall be entitled to receive from the Trust (i) an amount in cash equal to
the amount to which he is entitled under the Plan or Plans at such time, less
(ii) any payments previously made to him by the Grantor with respect to such
amount pursuant to the terms of the Plans. The commencement of payments from the
Trust shall be conditioned on the Trustee’s prior receipt of a written
instrument from the Beneficiary in a form satisfactory to the Trustee containing
representations as to (A) the amount to which the Beneficiary is entitled under
the Plans, (B) the fact that he has requested the payment of such amount from
the Grantor pursuant to the terms of the Plans, (C) the amount, if any, he has
received from the Grantor under the Plans with respect to such amount, and (D)
the amount to be paid him by the Trust (i.e., the difference between (A) and (C)
above). All payments to a Beneficiary from the Trust shall be made in accordance
with the provisions of the applicable Plan. The Trustee shall be

-4-

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

fully protected in making any payment in accordance with the provisions of this
paragraph.

                    (b)        The Trustee shall make or commence payment to the
Beneficiary in accordance with his representations not later than 30 business
days after its receipt thereof; provided, however, that before the Trustee makes
or commences any such payment and not later than 7 business days after its
receipt of the Beneficiary’s representations, the Trustee shall request in
writing the Grantor’s agreement that the Beneficiary’s representations are
accurate with respect to the amount, fact, and time of payment to him. The
Trustee shall enclose with such request a copy of the Beneficiary’s
representations and written advice to the Grantor that it must respond to the
Trustee’s request on or before the 20th business day (which date shall be set
forth in such written advice) after the Beneficiary furnished such
representations to the Trustee. If the Grantor, in a writing delivered to the
Trustee, agrees with the Beneficiary’s representations in all respects, or if
the Grantor does not respond to the Trustee’s request by the 20th day deadline,
the Trustee shall make payment in accordance with the Beneficiary’s
representations. If the Grantor advises the Trustee in writing on or before the
20th day deadline that it does not agree with any or all of the Beneficiary’s
representations, the Trustee immediately shall take whatever steps it in its
sole discretion, deems appropriate, including, but not limited to, a review of
any notice furnished by the Grantor pursuant to paragraph (e) hereof, to attempt
to resolve the difference(s) between the Grantor and the Beneficiary. If,
however, the Trustee is unable to resolve such difference(s) to its satisfaction
within 60 business days after its receipt of the Beneficiary’s representations,
the Trustee shall make payment at such time and in such form and manner as is
allowed under the Plans as of the date first stated above and as the Trustee, in
its sole discretion,

-5-

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

selects. The Trustee shall be fully protected in making or refraining from
making any payment in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph.

                    (c)        Notwithstanding any other provision of the Trust
Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall make payments hereunder before such
payments are otherwise due if it determines, based on a change in the tax or
revenue laws of the United States of America, a published ruling or similar
announcement issued by the Internal Revenue Service, a regulation issued by the
Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate, or a decision by a court of competent
jurisdiction involving a Beneficiary, or a closing agreement made under Code
Section 7121 that is approved by the Internal Revenue Service and involves a
Beneficiary, that a Beneficiary has recognized or will recognize income for
federal income tax purposes with respect to amounts that are or will be payable
to him under the Plans before they are paid to him.

                    (d)        Unless (contemporaneously with his submission of
the written instrument referred to in paragraph (a) hereof) a Beneficiary
furnishes documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee that
no withholding is required with respect to a payment to be made to him from the
Trust, the Trustee may deduct from any such payment any federal, state or local
taxes required by law to be withheld by the Trustee.

                    (e)        The Trustee shall provide the Grantor with
written confirmation of the fact and time of any commencement of payments
hereunder within 10 business days after any payments commence to a beneficiary.
The Grantor shall notify the Trustee in the same manner of any payments it
commences to make to a Beneficiary pursuant to the Plans.

-6-

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

                    (f)        The Trustee shall be fully protected in making or
refraining from making any payment or any calculations in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.

          7.        Termination of the Trust and Reversion of Trust Assets. The
Trust shall terminate upon the first to occur of (i) the payment by the Grantor
of all amounts due the Beneficiaries under each of the Plans and the receipt by
the Trustee of a valid release to that effect from each of the Beneficiaries
with respect to payments made to him, or (ii) the twenty-first anniversary of
the death of the last survivor of the Beneficiaries who are in being on the date
of the execution of this Trust Agreement. Upon termination of the Trust, any and
all assets remaining in the Trust, after the payment to the Beneficiaries of all
amounts to which they are entitled and after payment of the expenses and
compensation in Sections 10 and 15(i) of this Trust Agreement, shall revert to
the Grantor and the Trustee shall promptly take such action as shall be
necessary to transfer any such assets to the Grantor. Notwithstanding the above,
the Grantor shall be obligated to take whatever steps are necessary to ensure
that the Trust is not terminated for a period of five (5) years following a
Change in Control as of the date of the execution of this Trust Agreement, such
steps to include, but not being limited to, the transfer to the Trustee of cash
or other assets pursuant to the provisions of Section 8(a) hereof.

          8.         Powers of the Trustee. To carry out the purposes of the
Trust and subject to any limitations herein expressed, the Trustee is vested
with the following powers until final distribution, in addition to any now or

Grantor, during which time the Grantor shall appoint a “Qualified Successor
Trustee.” If no Qualified Successor Trustee accepts such appointment, the
resigning Trustee shall petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a “Qualified Successor Trustee.” For this purpose, a “Qualified
Successor Trustee” may be an individual or a corporation but may not be the

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

shall be paid by the Grantor; provided, however, that to the extent such
compensation is not paid by the Grantor, subject to the provisions of Section
15(i) hereof, it shall be charged against and paid from the Trust and the
Grantor shall reimburse the Trust for any such payment made from the Trust
within 30 days of its receipt from the Trustee of written notice of such
payment.

          11.         Trustee’s Consent to Act and Indemnification of the
Trustee. The Trustee hereby grants and consents to act as Trustee hereunder. The
Grantor agrees to indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless from and against
all claims, liabilities, legal fees and expenses that may be asserted against
it, otherwise than on account of the Trustee’s own negligence or willful
misconduct (as found by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction)
by reason of the Trustee’s taking or refraining from taking any action in
connection with the Trust, whether or not the Trustee is a party to a legal
proceeding or otherwise.

          12.         Prohibition Against Assignment. No Beneficiary shall have
any preferred claim on, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any assets of
the Trust before such assets are paid to the Beneficiary as provided in Section
6, and all rights created under the Trust and the Plans shall be unsecured

against, the assets of the Trust may be assigned, anticipated, alienated,

detailed accounts of all investments, receipts and disbursements and other

calendar year, and within ninety days after the Trustee’s resignation or
termination of the Trust as

provided herein, the Trustee shall render a written account of its
administration of the Trust to the Grantor by submitting a record of receipts,
investments, disbursements, distributions, gains, losses, assets on hand at the
end of the accounting period and other pertinent information, including a
description of all securities and investments purchased and sold during such
calendar year. Written approval of an account shall, as to all matters shown in
the account, be binding upon the Grantor and shall forever release and discharge
the Trustee from any liability or accountability. The Grantor will be deemed to
have given his written approval if he does not object in writing to the Trustee
within one hundred and twenty days after the date of receipt of such account
from the Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled at any time to institute an
action in a court of competent jurisdiction for a judicial settlement of its
account.

          14.         Notices. Any notice or instructions required under any of
the provisions of this Trust Agreement shall be deemed effectively given only if
such notice is in writing and is delivered personally or by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, addressed to the

-13-

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

The Grantor or Trustee may at any time change the address to which notices are
to be sent to it by giving written notice thereof in the manner provided above.

          15.        Miscellaneous Provisions.

                      (a)        This Trust Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota applicable to
contracts made and to be performed therein and the Trustee shall not be required
to account in any court other than one of the courts of such state.

                      (b)        All section headings herein have been inserted
for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify, restrict or affect
the meaning or interpretation of any of the terms or provisions of this Trust
Agreement.

                      (c)        This Trust Agreement is intended as a complete
and exclusive statement of the agreement of the parties hereto, supersedes all
previous agreements or understandings among them and may not be modified or
terminated orally.

                      (d)        The term “Trustee” shall include any successor
Trustee.

                      (e)        If a Trustee or Custodian hereunder is a bank
or trust company, any corporation resulting from any merger, consolidation or
conversion to which such bank or trust company may be a party, or any
corporation otherwise succeeding generally to all or substantially all of the
assets or business of such bank or trust company, shall be the successor to it
as Trustee or custodian hereunder, as the case may be without the execution of
any instrument or any further action on the part of any party hereto.

                      (f)        If any provision of this Trust Agreement shall
be invalid and unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof shall subsist and
be carried into effect.

-14-

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

                      (g)        The Plans are by this reference expressly
incorporated herein and made a part hereof with the same force and effect as if
fully set forth at length. As of the date first stated above, the terms of the
Plans are as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto.

                      (h)        The assets of the Trust shall be subject only
to the claims of the Grantor’s general creditors in the event of the Grantor’s
bankruptcy or insolvency. The Grantor shall be considered “bankrupt” or
“insolvent” if the Grantor is (A) unable to pay its debts when due or (B)
engaged as a debtor in a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. Section
101 et seq. The Board of Directors and the chief executive officer of the
Grantor must notify the Trustee of the Grantor’s bankruptcy or insolvency within
three (3) days following the occurrence of such event. Upon receipt of such a
notice, or, upon receipt of a written allegation from a person or entity
claiming to be a creditor of the Grantor that the Grantor is bankrupt or
insolvent, the Trustee shall discontinue payments to Beneficiaries. The Trustee
shall, as soon as practicable after receipt of such notice or written
allegation, determine whether the Grantor is bankrupt or insolvent. If the
Trustee determines, based on such notice, written allegation, or such other
information as it deems appropriate, that the Grantor is bankrupt or insolvent,
the Trustee shall hold the assets of the Trust for the benefit of the Grantor’s
general creditors, and deliver any undistributed assets to satisfy the claims of
such creditors as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. The Trustee
shall resume payments to Beneficiaries only after it has determined that the
Grantor is not bankrupt or insolvent, is no longer bankrupt or insolvent (if the
Trustee determined that the Grantor was bankrupt or insolvent), pursuant to an
order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Unless the Trustee has actual
knowledge of the Grantor’s bankruptcy or insolvency, the Trustee

-15-

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

shall have no duty to inquire whether the Grantor is bankrupt or insolvent. The
Trustee may in all events rely on such evidence concerning the Grantor’s
solvency as may be furnished to the Trustee which will give the Trustee a
reasonable basis for making a determination concerning the Grantor’s solvency.

                      If the Trustee discontinues payment of benefits from the
Trust pursuant to this Section 15(h) and subsequently resumes such payments, the
first payment following such discontinuance shall include the aggregate amount
of all payments which would have been made to each Beneficiary (together with
interest) during the period of such discontinuance, less the aggregate amount of
payments made to the Beneficiary by the Grantor in lieu of the payments provided
for hereunder during any such period of discontinuance.

                      (i)        Any and all taxes, expenses (including, but not
limited to, the Trustee’s compensation) and costs of litigation relating to or
concerning the adoption, administration and termination of the Trust shall be
borne and promptly paid by the Grantor; provided, however, that, to the extent
such taxes, expenses and costs relating to the Trust are due and owing and (A)
are not paid by the Grantor, and (B) do not in the aggregate exceed $1,000, they
shall be charged against and paid from the Trust, and the Grantor shall
reimburse the Trust for any such payment made from the Trust within 30 days of
its receipt from the Trustee of written notice of such payment.

                      (j)        Any reference hereunder to a Beneficiary shall
expressly be deemed to include, where relevant, the beneficiaries of a
Beneficiary duly appointed under the terms of the Plans. A Beneficiary shall
cease to have such status once any and all amounts due such Beneficiary under
the Plan have been satisfied.

-16-

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

                      (k)        Any reference hereunder to the Grantor shall
expressly be deemed to include the Grantor’s successor and assigns.

                      (l)        Whenever used herein, and to the extent
appropriate, the masculine, feminine or neuter gender shall include the other
two genders, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include
the singular.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this amended and
