            Section 8.6. Servicing Fees. In consideration of Ralcorp's agreement
      to act as Master Servicer hereunder, the Purchasers hereby agree that, so
      long as Ralcorp shall continue to perform as Master Servicer hereunder,

      calendar day of each month, in arrears for the immediately preceding
      month, equal to 0.325% of aggregate new Receivables (i.e., gross sales)
      during such period, as compensation for its servicing activities.

            1.4. Lofthouse. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that in
      lieu of becoming a new Originator under the Receivables Sale Agreement,
      Lofthouse Foods Incorporated, a Utah corporation, shall be merged with and
      into Bremner, Inc., a Nevada corporation, not later than September 30,
      2002, and accordingly, hereby waives delivery of the documents required

each of the parties hereto.

      4. Miscellaneous.

benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns
(including any trustee in bankruptcy and the Agent).

      4.3. Counterparts; Severability. This Amendment may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of
which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement. Any
provisions of this Amendment which are prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.
