         (e)      A non-exclusive license to use the Sublicensed Marks listed
in Appendix B to the Borden License solely on or in connection with the
Products manufactured or processed in the United States and listed in Appendix

the Sublicensed Marks listed in Appendix B to the Borden License, for sale to

         The licenses being granted hereunder by SFG shall be royalty free and
shall be solely and to the same extent that SFG has been granted a license with
respect to the Products pursuant to the Borden License.   Milk Products shall
not have any right to sell the Products bearing the Sublicensed Marks outside
the Territory and Milk Products agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions
of the Borden License as if Milk Products was named as the licensee under the
Borden License and SFG was named as the licensor under the Borden License;
provided, however, that if the rights granted herein are more restrictive than
those granted in the Borden License, Milk Products shall be bound by the more
restrictive rights granted herein.

         3.      OWNERSHIP OF SUBLICENSED MARKS

3.1      Milk Products acknowledges that Licensor is the sole owner of the
Sublicensed Marks.  Milk Products shall not directly or indirectly question,
attack, contest, or in any other manner impugn the validity of Licensor's
ownership of the Sublicensed Marks, nor shall Milk Products willingly become an
adverse party to Licensor in litigation contesting the validity of Licensor's
ownership and other rights in and to the Sublicensed Marks.

3.2      Milk Products shall be deemed a "related company" under the U.S.
Lanham Act, such that any use of the Sublicensed Marks by Milk Products, and
any goodwill generated thereby, shall inure to the sole benefit of Licensor.

         4.      QUALITY STANDARDS

4.1      Milk Products agrees that all Products bearing a Sublicensed Mark
pursuant to this Agreement shall be of a high standard and of such quality as
to protect and enhance the Sublicensed Marks and the goodwill and value
pertaining thereto and shall meet Licensor's quality standards and
specifications as set out specifically in the current formulae, ingredients and
manufacturing specifications ("FIMS") for such Products, a copy of which has
been made available to Milk Products, and/or such modified formulae as shall be
reasonably agreed in writing between Licensor and Milk Products in the future.
Milk Products and its Manufacturing Agents shall manufacture, sell, distribute
and promote the Products in accordance with all applicable federal, state and
local laws.





MILK PRODUCTS SUBLICENSE AGREEMENT  - Page 3
<PAGE>   4
         5.      QUALITY MAINTENANCE

5.1      In order to assure that Milk Products meets Licensor's quality
standards and specifications, once each quarter of the Term and/or for good
cause shown, Milk Products shall submit comprehensive affidavits that meet with
Licensor's reasonable approval from all of Milk Products' quality control
department managers responsible for the quality standards of the Products
produced by that part of Milk Products' or its Manufacturing Agents' business
for which they are responsible, attesting under oath that Licensor's quality
standards and Product specifications have been fully complied with during the
prior quarter, also submitting representative Product samples and listing the
number of customer complaints relating to Product quality during that quarter
and a summary of the actions taken by Milk Products in response to such
complaints.

5.2      Milk Products also agrees that Licensor will submit the quarterly
Product samples to an independent testing laboratory to determine if the FIMS
are being complied with, the expense thereof being borne by Milk Products.
Licensor also reserves the right periodically to conduct quality control
inspections, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, at Milk
Products' plants to determine if the Licensor's FIMS for the Products and the
processing thereof are being complied with.

5.3      In the event that Licensor or its agents shall determine that any
Products sold or distributed by Milk Products and/or its Manufacturing Agents
bearing or using Sublicensed Marks do not conform to Licensor's FIMS, Milk
Products agrees, at its expense, to take such action as Licensor directs in
writing, including, but not limited to, withdrawal and/or recall of such
Products from the market and to refrain and cause its Manufacturing Agents to
refrain from further sale and/or distribution of such Products under the
Sublicensed Marks unless and until Milk Products and/or its Manufacturing
Agents have demonstrated to the reasonable satisfaction of Licensor that said
Products conform to said FIMS, as the case may be.

5.4      If Milk Products enters into co-packing agreements with suppliers or
any other arrangement with respect to the processing or packaging of final
Products by any person who is not a subsidiary of Milk Products, who will
process or package final Products for Milk Products, for sale in the Territory
("MANUFACTURING AGENTS"), Milk Products must submit such co-packing agreements
in draft form to Licensor or an individual designated by Licensor ("LICENSOR'S
LICENSE COORDINATOR") for prior approval to ensure they include trademark
protection and quality control provisions that safeguard the rights of both the
Licensor and Milk Products under this Agreement.  Licensor agrees that such
prior approval shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably, and that Licensor
shall respond promptly to any request for approval.  If Licensor fails to
respond to such request within thirty (30) days, Licensor's approval shall be
deemed given.

5.5      On a semi-annual basis, Milk Products shall review with Licensor's
License Coordinator and obtain prior approval for, all advertising, promotional
and point-of-purchase materials published or distributed by Milk Products in
connection with Products bearing Sublicensed Marks.  Licensor agrees that such
prior approval shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably, and that Licensor
shall respond promptly to any request for approval.  If Licensor fails to
respond to such request within thirty (30) days, Licensor's approval shall be
deemed given.





MILK PRODUCTS SUBLICENSE AGREEMENT  - Page 4
<PAGE>   5
5.6      If Milk Products desires to adopt new cartons or packaging bearing the
Sublicensed Marks, which package designs or trade dress are different from
those presently used by Licensor, Milk Products shall submit to Licensor's
License Coordinator at least one (1) representative sample of each such new
carton and packaging material and may not use any such material in connection
with the Sublicensed Marks without Licensor's prior written approval.  Licensor
agrees that such prior approval shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably,
and that Licensor shall respond promptly to any request for approval.  If
Licensor fails to respond to such request within thirty (30) days, Licensor's
approval shall be deemed given.

5.7      Milk Products shall notify Licensor promptly in writing upon its
determination that it intends to use any Sublicensed Mark in connection with an
Additional Product, which notification shall include a description of the
Additional Product, and a certification that the Additional Product was
manufactured or processed by Holdings on the date of this Agreement.  From and
after such notification, Licensor and Milk Products shall mutually agree upon
the FIMS that will be applicable to such Additional Product as if it were a
"Product" hereunder.

         6.      FORM OF USE

6.1       Milk Products hereby acknowledges and agrees that its use of the
Sublicensed Marks shall be subject to all times during the Term to the
reasonable control of Licensor in order for Licensor to maintain the consistent
standard of quality associated with the Sublicensed Marks.  Milk Products will
preserve the good appearance of the Sublicensed Marks wherever and whenever
they are used and shall not use any Sublicensed Mark in a manner which is
likely to derogate from the integrity, distinctiveness, goodwill, value or
strength of such Sublicensed Mark.

6.2      From time to time, Licensor may determine that a previously published
use of the Sublicensed Marks by Milk Products may threaten the value of the
Sublicensed Marks, or is otherwise inconsistent with Licensor's quality
standards.  Upon written notice from Licensor, Milk Products shall implement
Licensor's directions regarding the proper use of the Sublicensed Marks as
promptly as practicable using its best efforts and, in any event, within thirty
(30) days.

6.3      Except as required by law, Milk Products agrees not to use the
Sublicensed Marks in connection or combination with any other third-party
trademarks, names or logotypes, without Licensor's prior written approval, such
approval not to be withheld unreasonably.  Milk Products shall at no time adopt
or use any variation of the Sublicensed Marks or any word or marks confusingly
similar thereto without Licensor's prior written approval.

6.4      Milk Products shall not take any action to cause an abandonment or
forfeiture of any of Licensor's rights in the Sublicensed Marks and shall not
take any action to cancel any registration in the United States or elsewhere of
any Sublicensed Mark in the name of Licensor or to interfere with any renewal
of any such registration.  Milk Products shall reasonably cooperate with and
shall not oppose any application by or on behalf of Licensor to register or
renew any federal or state registration of any Sublicensed Mark in the United
States or elsewhere.
