 To the extent that RGF’s Intellectual Property includes property
subject to copyright under which Manufacturer may otherwise claim, Manufacturer agrees that such work is done as a “work for hire” as that term is defined under federal copyright law, and that, as a result, RGF shall own all copyrights in

or other proprietary right protection, Manufacturer hereby irrevocably and fully transfers and assigns to RGF, its successors and assigns, all right, title, and interest in and to RGF’s Intellectual Property, including but not limited to, all

in a writing delivered by Manufacturer to RGF prior to the first shipment of a Product, (b) Manufacturer’s remaining inventory of finished Products (or, in the case of Product Deletion, Products that are the subject of Product Deletion),
and (c) any Packaging that is exclusively used for Products (or, in the case of Product Deletion, Products that are the subject of Product Deletion) produced under this Agreement; provided, however that such buy back requirement shall not
exceed the lesser of (i) the minimum inventory levels set forth in Exhibit “1” for such proprietary raw ingredients (as defined above), such finished Products, and such Packaging or (ii) the
actual on hand inventory levels on the Notice Date of such proprietary raw ingredients (as defined above), such finished Products, and such Packaging reduced by, in each case, the amount of proprietary raw ingredients needed to fill all orders of
Products ordered after the Notice Date, the number of units of the Products ordered after the Notice Date, and the amount of packaging needed to fill all orders of Products ordered after the Notice Date. 

ii.                RGF may terminate this
Agreement effective immediately and/or cancel an order without liability to Manufacturer (a) if Manufacturer has materially breached this Agreement (subject to the cure provisions for performance issues); or (b) if RGF does not accept the
revised pricing pursuant to Section 4, or (c) on sixty (60) days’ notice with or without cause.

 Manufacturer shall indemnify RGF against any and all lawsuits, claims,
demands, actions, liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs), regardless of the cause or alleged cause thereof, and regardless of whether such matters are groundless, fraudulent or false,
arising out of any actual or alleged failure by RGF to notify, disclose, or report any information to Customer(s) pursuant to the Customer Requirements concerning the Products. 

13.    Remedies. Manufacturer’s failure to comply with any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the

RGF), as evidenced by written documentation, in (i) unpacking, examining, repacking and storing such merchandise (it being agreed that in the absence of proof of a higher expense that the RGF or Customer(s), as applicable, shall claim an
allowance for each rejection at the rate of 10% of the price for each rejection made by RGF or Customer(s)) and (ii) landing and reshipping such merchandise. Unless RGF otherwise agrees in writing, Manufacturer shall not have the right to make
a conforming delivery within the contract time; 
 (c) Termination of all current and future business relationships with
Manufacturer; 
 (d) Assessment of any related monetary fines, fees, or costs actually charged to RGF by any Customer(s);

 (e) Recovery from Manufacturer of any damages sustained by RGF as a result of Manufacturer’s breach or default, as
evidenced by written documentation; and 
 (f) Buyer’s remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code and such other
remedies as are provided under applicable law 
 The Parties further acknowledge that any breach or violation of this
Agreement may be difficult or impossible to calculate in pecuniary damages. Therefore, either Party hereto may avail itself of injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief. 

The remedies stated in this Section 13 are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies available to RGF at
law or in equity. 
 14.    Insurance Requirements. During the term of this Agreement and for one (1) year
after any termination, Manufacturer shall obtain and maintain insurance coverage acceptable to RGF in the amounts and with the conditions required by (or exceeding) the Customer Requirements except that RGF and each Customer shall be
named as the Certificate Holders and Insured Parties on all such policies. 
 15.    Forum Selection; Choice of
Law. This Agreement, and any and all disputes arising thereunder relating thereto or that in any way relate to the Products, whether sounding in contract or tort, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
of California without regard to its laws regarding conflicts of law; and the federal and/or state courts of Los Angeles County, CA, shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any actions or suits relating thereto. RGF and Manufacturer mutually
acknowledge and agree that they shall not raise, and hereby waive, any defenses based upon venue, inconvenience of forum, or lack of personal jurisdiction in any action or suit brought in accordance with the foregoing. Any legal action brought by

 16.    Termination of RGF’s Supplier/Vendor
Agreement(s) With Customer(s); Survival of Provisions. In the event RGF’s supplier/vendor agreement with any Customer(s) is terminated, RGF shall have no further obligation to Manufacturer concerning the Products as to such
Customer(s); however, Manufacturer’s obligations and agreements pursuant to Sections 7, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and19 of this Agreement, and other provisions that by their nature survive termination, shall survive such termination
and shall continue indefinitely. In the event RGF’s supplier/vendor agreement with less than all of the Customers is terminated, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to such other Customer(s). 

17.    No Waiver. No failure or delay by either Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial waiver thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. 

18.    Construction/Severability.    Each party acknowledges it has contributed to the drafting
of this Agreement. The language in all parts of this Agreement shall in all cases be construed as a whole according to its fair meaning and not strictly for nor against any Party. The neuter gender includes the masculine and feminine. If any
provision of this Agreement is declared void or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severed from this Agreement; and the remaining portions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The prevailing party of any legal action
brought to enforce or interpret the provisions of this Agreement will be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs from the non-prevailing party in addition to any other relief which the
prevailing party may be entitled.

other Party hereto that this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary action and that this Agreement constitutes and will constitute a binding obligation of each such Party. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties execute this Agreement, to be effective on the Effective Date.
