to license Kona Intellectual Property to CBAI as provided under this Agreement; (b) the license of
Kona Intellectual Property and distribution rights under this Agreement do not conflict with any

          3.2 CBAI will exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to market and distribute (either
directly or indirectly through any affiliate) the Products in the Territory through ABI
distributors pursuant to the ABI Distributor Agreement.



          3.3 CBAI agrees that it will not distribute, either directly or indirectly through any
affiliate: (i) any malt beverage products manufactured by any brewer, other than Kona, that is
headquartered in the state of Hawaii; or (ii) any brand of malt beverage products, other than the
Products, for which more than 50% of the brand’s aggregate annual sales volume, by volume, is in
the state of Hawaii.



     4. Exclusivity. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement,
during the term of this Agreement, CBAI is the exclusive distributor of Product in the Territory,
with the exception of: (i) sale of Product brewed at a brewpub owned by Kona or an affiliate of
Kona (but not at a brewpub owned or operated by a franchisee of any Kona affiliate) by such brewpub

sale or distribution of Product that is sold or re-sold to consumers at any such competition or

     5. Expansion of Products. Upon notice by Kona to CBAI, the “Products” shall include
any other existing or new beverages developed by Kona (“New Products”). All New Products must
comply with each of the following:



          5.1 The New Product must be a beer or ale beverage product; and



          5.2 The New Product must be of a quality that is satisfactory to CBAI together with ABI in its
reasonable discretion; provided, however, that the quality will be deemed
satisfactory unless such quality is substantially inferior to the Products then existing under this
Agreement.



     6. Sale of Kona Merchandise. CBAI may only sell Kona Merchandise in connection with
the advertising and sale of Products, including, without limitation, sale of Kona Merchandise to
pubs, taverns, restaurants, and other establishments where the Product is consumed on the premises;
provided, however, that if Kona notifies CBAI in writing that a particular retail
outlet sells more than $1,000 in Kona Merchandise in a calendar year, then within 30 days of CBAI’s
receipt of such notice, CBAI must use commercially reasonable efforts to permit Kona to sell Kona
Merchandise to such retailer or to the distributor that resells Kona Merchandise to such retailer.



     7. Minimum Purchase Obligations.



          7.1 Each calendar year (each, a “Measurement Year”), CBAI will purchase from Kona at least an
amount of Product equal to: (i) 70 percent of the number of PCEs of Product distributed by CBAI in
the Territory during the calendar year prior to the Measurement Year; minus (ii) the number
of PCEs of Product manufactured and distributed by CBAI during the Measurement Year for
distribution in the Territory pursuant to one or more license brewing arrangements with Kona (the
“Minimum Purchase Obligation”).



          7.2 If CBAI does not purchase the Minimum Purchase Obligation, then CBAI must pay Kona $1.00
per PCE for the number of PCEs by which actual purchases during the Measurement Year fell short of
the Minimum Purchase Obligation. The first test of the Minimum Purchase Obligation will be
conducted in January of 2010, for the 2009 Measurement Year.



          7.3 If a period for which the Minimum Purchase Obligation is calculated is less than a full
calendar year, then the Minimum Purchase Obligation for such period shall be prorated based on the
number of days in such period relative to the number of days in such calendar year.



     8. Purchase Price.



          8.1 The initial purchase prices for Products manufactured by Kona (directly, or indirectly
through contract brewing arrangements) are set forth on Exhibit B. On or before November
1, 2009, and each November 1st thereafter, Kona will provide CBAI with any proposed
changes to the Product prices for the following year. If Kona and CBAI cannot agree on the
following year’s purchase price of any Product prior to December 31st of a given year,
or within 30 days of any other proposed price change, then, effective 6 months after the deadline
for agreement, Kona may elect not to manufacture such Product or CBAI may elect not to distribute
such Product; provided, however, that during the six-month wind-down period for
such Product



 









 







the purchase price for such Product will be the purchase price for such Product on the
deadline for agreement. CBAI must pay the purchase price within 30 days following delivery of
Products. Intra-year price changes may be effected by amendment to this Agreement or a
supplemental price schedule executed by CBAI and Kona. No purchase price is payable by CBAI to
Kona for Products manufactured by CBAI pursuant to any license brewing arrangement with Kona.



          8.2 The parties agree to reopen price negotiations upon 30 days’ written notice from Kona to
CBAI that the current price does not cover Kona’s actual cost of the Products (for example, due to
increases in raw material costs, packaging costs, component costs, facility use fees, other
operating expenses, and general administrative expenses). CBAI agrees to engage in good faith
negotiations to increase the price to be paid under this Agreement to not less than Kona’s actual
cost and to implement the new price within 45 days of the written notice from Kona to CBAI to
reopen negotiations. CBAI is not required to approve a price increase if the proposed increase is
not based on factors that generally affect the malt beverage industry.



     9. Compliance with Law. Kona and CBAI agree to comply with all applicable rules and
regulations of the U.S. Department of the Treasury Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (“TTB”)
and any other regulatory agency that has jurisdiction over the Products. The parties agree to
cooperate with each other to provide and retain any regulatory, taxation, or other reports or
information required by the TTB or any other regulatory agency.



     10. Confidentiality.



          10.1 No Disclosure. Each party (a “Receiving Party”) agrees that, except as required
by any federal or local governmental agency (including, without limitation, the SEC and the TTB),
during and after the term of this Agreement neither the Receiving Party, nor any person, firm,
corporation or other entity affiliated with, owned in whole or in part by, employed by or otherwise
connected with the Receiving Party, will directly or indirectly, without the express written
consent of the other party (the “Disclosing Party”), divulge, use, sell, exchange, furnish, give
away, or transfer in any way any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party;
provided, however, that a Receiving party may disclosure Confidential Information
to its professional advisors in connection with the provision of professional services that
reasonably call for such disclosure.



          10.2 Compelled Disclosure. If the Receiving Party is served with any form of process
purporting to require it to disclose any Confidential Information to any third party, the Receiving
Party will immediately notify the Disclosing Party who will, in addition to the Receiving Party
efforts, if any, have the right to seek to quash such process. The Receiving Party will cooperate
with the Disclosing Party in all efforts to quash such process or otherwise to limit the scope of
any required disclosure. In the event that the disclosure of any Confidential Information is
compelled, the Receiving Party will seek an appropriate protective order from the court to limit
access to such information.



          10.3 Confidential Information Defined. The term “Confidential Information” includes,
without limitation: (i) information provided to the Receiving Party by the Disclosing Party that
the Disclosing Party has designated as confidential; (ii) this Agreement (and all amendments
thereto) and all of its terms and conditions and any invoices issued hereunder; (iii) any and all
nonpublic information regarding the existing or proposed business, products, or



 









 







facilities of the Disclosing Party or any of its business partners, including, without
limitation, all financial information, financial projections, business plans, product development
data, manufacturing data, distribution or pricing data, customer and supplier information, and
recipes; and (iv) and all information, whether or not in written form and whether or not designated
as confidential, that the Receiving Party knows is treated as confidential by the Disclosing Party,
provided, however, that Confidential Information does not include: (y) information
obtained independently or from third-party sources without the acquiring party’s knowledge that the
source has violated any fiduciary or other duty not to disclose such information; or (z)
information that becomes generally available to the public through no fault of the Receiving Party.
Confidential Information includes, without limitation, all Product recipes and all Product pricing
data.



          10.4 Destruction/Return of Information. Upon the expiration or termination of this
Agreement or upon the Disclosing Party’s request, the Receiving Party must return all Confidential
Information to the Disclosing Party or at the Disclosing Party’s option, destroy all Confidential
Information; provided, however, that the Receiving Party may keep Confidential
Information in its records consistent with applicable law and its then-applicable record retention
and file management policies.



     11. Indemnification.



          (a) CBAI. CBAI agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Kona harmless on account of any
legal action or claim brought against Kona by a third party to the extent arising out of CBAI’s
negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that CBAI has no
indemnification obligation under this section to the extent that any such legal action or claim
brought against Kona arises out of Kona’s negligence or willful misconduct.



          (b) Kona. Kona agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold CBAI harmless on account of any
legal action or claim brought against CBAI by a third party to the extent arising out of Kona’s
negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that Kona has no
indemnification obligation under this section to the extent that any such legal action or claim
brought against CBAI arises out of CBAI’s negligence or willful misconduct.



          (c) Indemnification Procedures. With respect to claims made by third parties, if any
party that is entitled to indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnitee”) is threatened with any claim,
or any claim is presented to or any action or proceeding commenced against the Indemnitee, which
may give rise to the right of indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitee will give prompt written
notice thereof to the other party obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder (the
“Indemnitor”). The Indemnitor, by delivery of written notice to the Indemnitee within 20 days of
receipt of notice of a claim for indemnification from the Indemnitee, may elect to assume the
defense of any such third party claim at the Indemnitor’s expense. If the Indemnitor assumes the
defense, it shall have the right to settle an indemnifiable matter without the consent of the
Indemnitee unless the settlement would have a material adverse effect on the Indemnitee. If the
Indemnitor does not timely elect to defend an indemnifiable matter, the Indemnitee shall have the
exclusive right to prosecute, defend, compromise, settle, or pay any claim, without prejudice to
the right of the Indemnitee to recover any and all losses and reasonable expenses incurred
(including attorneys’ fees and costs, however incurred including in any bankruptcy proceeding, at
trial, on appeal, and on any petition for review). The Indemnitee shall permit the Indemnitor
reasonable access to the books and records of the Indemnitee and



 









 







shall otherwise cooperate with the Indemnitor in connection with any matter or claim of
indemnification.



     12. Insurance. At all times while any Product is being offered for sale, each party
must maintain general liability insurance policies issued by an insurer with a minimum Best’s
Financial Strength Rating of “A-”, with both “products” and “contractual” coverage of $1,000,000
per occurrence and an additional $2,000,000 in excess liability coverage. Each party must cause
its commercial general liability insurer to name the other party as an additional insured. Upon
request, each party must furnish the other party with an insurance certificate and copies of
relevant policies, declarations, and endorsements evidencing that the required insurance is in
force.



     13. Warranties; Limitation of Liability.



          13.1 Warranty of Authority. Each of the parties hereto warrants and represents to the
other party that: (a) it has the full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and
to carry out its obligations hereunder; and (b) that it has no obligations to any other party that
are inconsistent with its obligations under this Agreement.



          13.2 Limitation of Liability. Except with respect to, and to the extent of, damages
arising out of the negligence or willful misconduct of a party to this Agreement, and except with
respect to violations of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement, in no event is either
party to this Agreement to be liable for special, incidental, or consequential damages or lost
revenues or profits, except to the extent that the damages arise out of or are related to an
occurrence that is covered by any insurance policy maintained by the party from whom damages are
sought or which that party was obligated to maintain under this Agreement.



     14. Termination.



          14.1 Term. The term of this Agreement commences on the date first set forth above and
continue until December 31, 2018 (the “Initial Term”). Following the Initial Term, this Agreement
shall renew automatically for an additional 10-year period, unless either party provides written
notice to the other party on or prior to December 31, 2018 that this Agreement shall not be
renewed.



          14.2 Termination by Either Party. Either party may terminate this Agreement upon 180
days’ written notice given to the other party following the occurrence of any of the following
events:



                    14.2.1 The other party fails to timely make any payment required under this Agreement for a
period of 30 days following written notice thereof by the nonbreaching party.



                    14.2.2 The other party is given notice of a breach more than two times in any twelve month
period (regardless of whether such breach is cured).



                    14.2.3 The other party becomes the subject of insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, ceases
doing business, makes an assignment of assets for the benefit of creditors, dissolves, or has a
trustee appointed for all or a substantial portion of such party’s assets.



 











 




               14.2.4 Any government authority invalidates any material portion of this Agreement.



               14.2.5 Either party finds that complying with any law or regulation relating to fulfilling its
obligations under this Agreement would be commercially unreasonable and failure to comply with the
law or regulation would subject such party or any of its personnel to a monetary or criminal
penalty.



          14.3 Termination by CBAI. CBAI may terminate or suspend its obligations under this
Agreement upon notice to Kona if: (a) the ABI Distributor Agreement expires or is terminated for
any reason; or (b) ABI refuses or fails to distribute the Products for any reason. Kona may
terminate this Agreement upon 20 days’ written notice sent to CBAI within 30 days following the
occurrence of an event described in clause (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence if CBAI fails to:
(i) promptly following the occurrence of such event take commercially reasonable steps to replace
the distribution of the Product in the Territory; (ii) within 90 days following the occurrence of
such event have distribution for the Product in 50 percent of the states then in the Territory; and
(iii) within 180 days following the occurrence of such event have distribution for the Product in
90 percent of the states then in the Territory.



          14.4 Survival of Rights and Obligations. Termination of this Agreement shall not
prejudice any rights of either party hereto against the other which may have accrued up to the date
of termination. In addition, all covenants respecting indemnification, governing law, attorney
fees, arbitration, confidentiality, warranties, termination, and continuing liability for amounts
payable hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement as expressly set forth elsewhere
herein.



     15. Notices. Any notice, request or demand to be given or made under this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made: (i) upon delivery, if
delivered by hand and addressed to the party for whom intended at the address listed below; (ii)

THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, AND SUPERSEDES ALL

          16.4 Severability. In the event that any of the terms of this Agreement are in
conflict with any rule of law or statutory provision or are otherwise unenforceable under the laws
or regulations of any government or subdivision thereof, such terms shall be deemed stricken from
this Agreement, but such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate any of the other terms
of this Agreement and this Agreement shall continue in force, unless the invalidity or
unenforceability of any such provisions hereof does substantial harm to, or where the invalid or
unenforceable provisions comprise an integral part of, or are otherwise inseparable from, the
remainder of this Agreement.

conditioned upon the consent of either party: (a) such consent may not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed, or conditioned; and (b) consent shall be deemed granted unless the consenting party

each such counterpart shall be deemed an original hereof.



          16.7 Waiver. No failure by either party to take any action or assert any right

party shall reimburse the non-defaulting party for all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by
the non-defaulting party in connection with the default, including, without limitation, attorneys’

control of such party, including, but not limited to, acts of nature, terrorism, war, or
insurrection, civil commotion, destruction of production facilities or materials by earthquake,
fire, storm, or flood, labor disturbances or strikes, epidemic, materials shortages, equipment
malfunction, failure of ABI distributors, or other similar event. The party suffering such cause
