bankrupt, or if any party makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver is appointed on account of the insolvency of any party, this Agreement may be terminated by New
World if the affected party is a Harlan Company or by the Harlan Companies if the affected party is New World, if such actions are not reversed or such proceedings are not dismissed within sixty
(60) days after written notice given to the affected party.

16

12.2Breach of Contract.If any party is in material breach of any warranty or provision of this
Agreement or otherwise materially fails to perform hereunder, then the non-breaching party may, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, terminate this Agreement if the consequences
of such breach are not remedied within thirty (30) days after written notice to the breaching party of such breach, except that such thirty (30) days will be extended if and to the
extent that the breaching party commences a cure within such thirty (30) days and uses commercially reasonable best efforts to effect such cure as soon as possible and completes such cure
within thirty (30) days thereafter.

12.3Survival of Provisions.The provisions of Articles 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 and any other

particulars of the Force Majeure in question and the effect of such Force Majeure as it relates to the obligations of the affected party hereunder and such Force Majeure will not constitute a default
hereunder, provided that the party affected by the delay makes reasonable efforts to correct the reason for such delay. Such notice, whether given by a Harlan Company or New World entitles Harlan
Company or New World to suspend deliveries during the period of Force Majeure. For the purpose of this Agreement, "Force Majeure" means any of the following events beyond the control of the parties:

Einstein and Noah Processing Quality Assurance Overview

NWRG Quality Assurance program begins with vendor selection or addition of new items from existing vendors. The process is rigorous and involves all operational
departments associated with procurement, research, store operations, quality maintenance and distribution. After new vendor or new item selection the processor will be notified by NWRG Procurement so
the vendor or new item can be set up for receiving.

NWRG Corporate Quality Assurance Responsibility

NWRG Corporate Quality Assurance will provide to our processors pertinent QC information via a NWRG Material Information document for the purpose of ensuring
receipt, handling, storage and shelf life criteria are known.

NWRG
Corporate Quality Assurance is available to clarify food handling procedures and will provide guidance where deviations from the specifications are apparent.

NWRG
Corporate Quality Assurance will perform periodic and unannounced inspections and food evaluations to ensure our food and packaging is handled properly and the processor meets
acceptable hygiene and regulatory standards. The visits can occur for the following reasons:



Processor Responsibility

The processor will be responsible for utilizing this information to ensure NWRG distributors receive acceptable quality products with appropriate remaining shelf
life. Ensuring NWRG operations receives the quality of food and shelf life will involve the following general processing functions:

Section B

HACCPHazard Analysis Critical Control Point

Processors will have implemented a HACCP monitoring program with appropriate monitoring documentation. The HACCP program is designed to segregate the operational
monitoring steps and procedures required to ensure potentially hazardous foods are managed in a manner that eliminates conditions that create or contribute to food borne illness in distribution.

Processors
are encouraged to use the nationally recognized HACCP documentation format for developing the HACCP program.

The
HACCP program must be designed in a manner consistent with the National Advisory Committee for Microbiological Criteria of Foods (NACMCF). Additionally, NWRGC requires proof of
employee training and CCP performance. Refer to the examples of HACCP component documentation in this section for guidance. The HACCP criteria and NWRG requirements include:

---



Process Control Management

Processors must have documented a master "Process Control Requirements" (PCR) plan for producing NWRG products. The PCR will contain the following information for
all critical steps of processing:

|A. |  | Processing Location         |  | Room, Area
