 5.1 The External Manufacturer will provide a
holiday schedule to Ralcorp Logistics every July for the following year. Production may be run on External Manufacturer designated holidays as mutually agreed upon between Ralcorp and the External Manufacturer on a case-by-case basis. External
Manufacturer designated holidays are defined as the scheduled holidays as well as their respective attached weekend days (e.g.: the Saturday and Sunday prior to Labor Day Monday would be considered attached). If changes occur, External Manufacturer
shall provide Ralcorp with its Holiday or other downtime schedule 90 days in advance of said holiday or downtime. 
 5.2 Ralcorp shall
provide External Manufacturer with a rolling 12-week schedule from which External Manufacturer shall determine its periodic need for the Materials and the tentative production schedule. Ralcorp Production Planning shall update this schedule on a
weekly basis. Ralcorp will issue Purchase Orders to cover a two-week production schedule. External Manufacturer agrees to use commercially 

  

 6 








 
reasonable efforts to accommodate Ralcorp’s request to increase this schedule with a minimum of 3 working days notice, provided that External
Manufacturer has the capability (i.e., the Materials and Direct Labor) to comply and provided that the resultant schedule remains within the two week production schedules in practice at such time. External Manufacturer agrees to use its commercially
reasonable efforts to accommodate Ralcorp’s request to decrease this schedule with a minimum of 5 working days notice, provided that External Manufacturer has the ability to comply and provided that the resultant schedule remains within the two
week production schedules in practice at such time and does not impact External Manufacturer’s costs. Agreed to two-week production schedules and run rules, which may be amended from time to time upon mutual agreement, are defined in
Attachment 5. In addition, Ralcorp shall provide to External Manufacturer a rolling six month forecast for Product in order to facilitate External Manufacturer’s capacity or budget planning. The agreed upon run rules may be modified
by the mutual consent of the parties hereto at any time, provided that any request by Ralcorp to change or modify External Manufacturer’s current production capabilities and production run rules will trigger an immediate pricing review of the
price per case of the Product, and to the extent such modification changes the cost of producing the Product, such change will be reflected in an adjustment to the price of the Product within thirty (30) days of implementing such change.

 5.3 External Manufacturer shall maintain and retain accurate records of production, shipments, scrap losses, rejected Materials, and
rejected Products, quality records according to the provisions of the Specifications for the Products set forth in Attachment 1 and the Guidelines (as defined in the Master Agreement), as well as other records required to be kept by

Manufacturer will not be required to use CHEP pallets (see Packaging Specification listed on Attachment l for specifics). All pricing implications of any CHEP pallet program will be reviewed and mutually agreed upon prior to
implementation. 
 6.4 Following such time as the distribution and logistics and warehousing services are transitioned from External
Manufacturer to Ralcorp pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, External Manufacturer will coordinate all transportation of the Products between External Manufacturer, outside storage, and Ralcorp locations. External Manufacturer will use
carriers identified by Ralcorp Corporate Transportation. If preferred carriers are not available, External Manufacturer will obtain a written list of alternate carriers from Ralcorp.
