between S&W SEED COMPANY, a Nevada corporation ("Borrower"), and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION ("Bank").



RECITALS


Borrower has requested that Bank extend or continue credit to Borrower as described below, and Bank has agreed to provide such credit
to Borrower on the terms and conditions contained herein. 


NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Borrower
hereby agree as follows: 


ARTICLE I

                  CREDIT TERMS


SECTION 1.1.        LINE OF CREDIT.


(a)Line of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Bank hereby agrees to make advances to Borrower
from time to time up to and including April 1, 2015, not to exceed at any time the aggregate principal amount of Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000.00) ("Line of Credit"), the proceeds of which shall be used for working capital purposes to finance the manufacture, production,
purchase or services rendered and subsequent export sale of Items (as defined in the Borrower Agreement between Export-Import Bank of the
United States ("Ex-Im Bank") and Borrower ("Borrower Agreement")). Borrower's obligation to repay advances under the Line of
Credit shall be evidenced by a promissory note dated as of February 1, 2014 ("Line of Credit Note"), all terms of which are incorporated herein
by this reference. 


(b)Limitation on Borrowings. Outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit, to a maximum of the principal amount set forth
above, shall not at any time exceed an aggregate of ninety percent (90%) of Eligible Accounts Receivable, as defined below, plus seventy five
percent (75%) of the value of Eligible Inventory, as defined below, with value defined as the lower of cost or fair market value on a first-in first-
out basis determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. All of the foregoing shall be determined by Bank upon
receipt and review of all collateral reports required hereunder and such other documents and collateral information as Bank may from time to
time require. Borrower acknowledges that said borrowing base was established by Bank with the understanding that, among other items, the
aggregate of all returns, rebates, discounts, credits and allowances for the immediately preceding three (3) months at all times shall be less
than five percent (5%) of Borrower's gross sales for said period. If such dilution of Borrower's accounts for the immediately preceding three (3)
months at any time exceeds five percent (5%) of Borrower's gross sales for said period, or if there at any time exists any other matters, events,
conditions or contingencies which Bank reasonably believes may affect payment of any portion of Borrower's accounts, Bank, in its sole
discretion, may reduce the foregoing advance rate against Eligible Accounts Receivable to a percentage appropriate to reflect such additional
dilution and/or establish additional reserves against Borrower's Eligible Accounts Receivable. 




                                                       -1-






"Eligible Accounts Receivable" shall mean Borrower's export accounts, upon which Borrower's right to receive payment is absolute and not
contingent upon the fulfillment of any condition whatsoever, and in which Bank has a perfected security interest of first priority, and shall not
include (A) any account included in the "Ineligible Accounts Receivable" definition on the form of Borrowing Base Certificate attached hereto as
Exhibit A ("Borrowing Base Certificate"), all terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference, and (B) any account deemed
ineligible by Bank when Bank, in its sole discretion, deems the creditworthiness or financial condition of the account debtor, or the industry in
which the account debtor is engaged, to be unsatisfactory. 


"Eligible Inventory" shall mean all export-related inventory of Borrower at the lower of cost or market value as determined in accordance
with GAAP, and shall not include (A) any inventory that Article I (Definitions) of the Borrower Agreement provides should be excluded, and (B)
any inventory included in the "Ineligible Inventory" definition on the Borrowing Base Certificate. 


(c)Borrowing and Repayment. Borrower may from time to time during the term of the Line of Credit borrow, partially or wholly
repay its outstanding borrowings, and reborrow, subject to all of the limitations, terms and conditions contained herein or in the Line of Credit
Note or any other document or instrument required hereby; provided however, that the total outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit
shall not at any time exceed the maximum principal amount available thereunder, as set forth above. 





SECTION 1.2.         INTEREST/FEES. 


(a)Interest. The outstanding principal balance of each credit subject hereto shall bear interest at the rate of interest set forth
in each promissory note or other instrument or document executed in connection therewith. 


(b)Computation and Payment. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed. Interest shall
be payable at the times and place set forth in each promissory note or other instrument or document required hereby. 


(c)Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Bank a non-refundable commitment fee for the Line of Credit equal to One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00), which fee shall be due and payable in full on the date of this Agreement. 


(d)Ex-Im Bank Application Fee. Borrower shall pay to Bank a non-refundable application fee equal to $100, which fee shall
be due and payable in full on the date of this Agreement. 




SECTION 1.3.        COLLECTION OF PAYMENTS. Except to the extent expressly specified otherwise in any Loan Document (as
defined in Section 2.2 hereof) other than this Agreement, Borrower authorizes Bank to collect all amounts due to Bank from Borrower under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document (whether for principal, interest or fees, or as reimbursement of drafts paid or other payments
made by Bank under any credit subject to this Agreement) by debiting any deposit account maintained by Borrower with Bank for the full
amount thereof. Should there be insufficient funds in Borrower's deposit accounts with Bank to pay all such sums when due, the full amount of
such deficiency shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower. 


                                                       -2-

immediately upon demand the full amount of all charges, costs and expenses (to include fees paid to third parties and all allocated costs of
Bank personnel), expended or incurred by Bank in connection with any of the foregoing security, including without limitation, filing and
recording fees and costs of appraisals, audits and title insurance.
