 ARTICLE IV - ROYALTIES AND CONSIDERATION 
  

	4.1	For the rights, privileges and license granted hereunder, LICENSEE shall pay to BRANDEIS or in the case of patent expenses to the designated patent attorney (in the manner
hereinafter provided to the end of the term of this Agreement): 

  

 4 








 Certain portions hereof denoted with “[***]” have been omitted pursuant to a request
for confidential treatment. An unredacted copy hereof has been filed separately with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment. 
  

	 	(a)	Research expenses including University overhead in the amount of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) which amount shall be due and payable on the Effective Date of this
Agreement, for animal nutritional studies during calendar year 1996 in the laboratory of Dr. K.C. Hayes, utilizing the LICENSED PRODUCT(S) and related oil and fat blends in controlled diets. In conjunction with this research and in support of
the LICENSED PRODUCT(S), Dr. Hayes will provide technical advice as needed and, should LICENSEE request additional animal and/or human studies, BRANDEIS will help design and conduct such studies. BRANDEIS and LICENSEE shall mutually agree on
the appropriate costs for such additional studies, with LICENSEE being solely responsible for funding such studies. 

  

	 	(b)	Royalties, for such LICENSED PRODUCT(S) used or sold by LICENSEE during the period of this Agreement, in an amount equal to: 

  

	 	(i)	— **** per pound of oil and/or fat utilized in LICENSED PRODUCT(S) containing between ***% and ***% by weight oil and/or fat, 

  

	 	 	— **** per pound of’ oil and/or fat utilized in LICENSED PRODUCT(S) containing between ***% and ***% by weight oil and/or fat, 

  

	 	 	— **** per pound of oil and/or fat utilized in LICENSED PRODUCT(S) containing between ***% and ***% by weight oil and/or fat,

	 	(ii)	     ****% of any and all sublicense issue fees, royalties, and any other payments received by LICENSEE in conjunction with any sublicense issued under this
Agreement 

  

	 	(c)	To the best of BRANDEIS’ knowledge, none of The Technology infringes the rights of any third party. In the event such infringements are alleged by third parties, BRANDEIS
agrees to investigate the situation fully in collaboration with LICENSEE, and the parties agree to collaborate in taking appropriate action to deal with the problem that may be exposed. If it is determined by a court, arbitrator or other authority
having jurisdiction over the issue of infringement that THE TECHNOLOGY causes the making, using, selling or offering for sale of LICENSED PRODUCT(S) to infringe the rights of a third party, or if BRANDEIS and LICENSEE agree that it is practical to
dispose of a third party’s charge of infringement by making an agreement with the third party, then any payments made to the third party shall be deducted from royalties payable to BRANDEIS, but in no case retroactively, or deductible at a rate
exceeding that payable to BRANDEIS. 

  

	4.2	All monies payable to BRANDEIS under Paragraph 4.1(b) shall be considered due and owed to BRANDEIS semi-annually payable no later than July 31 for January through June incomes
received, and payable no later than January 31 for the preceding July through December incomes received. 

  

 5 









	4.3	All payments due under Paragraph 4.1(a) that are not paid for whatever reason when due, and all payments due under Paragraphs 4.1(b) and 4.2 that are not paid for whatever reason
within 30 days of the end of a given calendar half year when due are delinquent on the next day (the 31st day after the end of that given calendar half year) and are then subject to the addition of interest at the annual rate of prime + 2%,
calculated from the date of delinquency (31 days after the end of the given calendar half year) to the date a negotiable payment check is mailed for all monies due and owed to BRANDEIS. 

  

	4.4	No multiple royalties shall be payable because the LICENSED PRODUCT(S) are or shall be covered by more than one patent application or patent licensed under this Agreement.


  

	4.5	Royalty payments shall be paid in United States dollars in Waltham, Massachusetts, or at such other place as BRANDEIS may reasonably designate within the United States. If any
currency conversion shall be required in connection with the payment of royalties hereunder, such conversion shall be made by using the exchange rate prevailing at a first-class foreign exchange bank on the last business day of the calendar half
year reporting period to which such royalty payments relate. 

  

	4.6	Prior to December 31, 1997, LICENSEE shall have the right to early termination of this Agreement without penalty, upon thirty (30) days written notice to BRANDEIS provided
that it has satisfied all of its payment obligations owed under this Agreement, said obligations which shall have matured as of the termination date of this Agreement. If the Due Diligence expenditures of Paragraph 3.1 have not been met and
demonstrated by a written accounting to BRANDEIS prior to such early termination, LICENSEE shall pay to BRANDEIS with said written termination notice, a termination fee of Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) in addition to such other payment
obligations owed under this Agreement, said obligations which shall have matured as of the termination date of this Agreement. However, such termination fee will not apply for the following occurrences which are beyond the control of LICENSEE:


  

	 	(a)	the animal research studies do not support the patent claims (see Paragraph 7.3). 

  

	 	(b)	the U.S. patent application receives a final rejection. 

  

	 	(c)	infringement claims are asserted by a third party and are not resolved pursuant to Paragraph 4.1 (c).

 9 








 
BRANDEIS and LICENSEE. Any recovery or damages for past infringement derived therefrom shall be applied first in satisfaction of any unreimbursed expenses
and reasonable legal fees of both parties, and the balance remaining from such recovery shall be divided equally between LICENSEE and BRANDEIS.

not have brought and shall not be prosecuting an infringement action, or if LICENSEE shall notify BRANDEIS at any time prior thereto of its intention not to bring suit against any alleged infringer, then, BRANDEIS shall have the right, but shall not
be obligated, to prosecute at its own expense any infringement of the PATENT RIGHTS, and LICENSEE may, for such purposes, join BRANDEIS as a party plaintiff, without expense to BRANDEIS. No settlement, consent judgment or other voluntary final
disposition of an infringement suit may be entered into without the consent of both BRANDEIS and LICENSEE where both are parties joined in the suit, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. 

  

	9.4	In the event that LICENSEE shall undertake the enforcement and/or defense of the PATENT RIGHTS by litigation LICENSEE may withhold up to fifty percent (50%) of the royalties
otherwise thereafter due BRANDEIS hereunder and apply the same toward reimbursement of its expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court reporters, transcripts, expert witnesses, and exhibits in connection therewith. Any recovery of
damages by LICENSEE for any such suit shall be applied first in satisfaction of any unreimbursed expenses and legal fees of LICENSEE relating to the suit, and next toward reimbursement of BRANDEIS for any royalties past due or withheld and applied
pursuant to this Article IX. The balance remaining from any such recovery shall be divided equally between LICENSEE and to BRANDEIS. 

  

	9.5	In the event that a declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity or infringement of any of the PATENT RIGHTS shall be brought against LICENSEE, BRANDEIS, at its option, shall
have the right, within thirty (30) days after commencement of such action has been noticed to BRANDEIS, to intervene and take over the sole defense of the action at its own expense. Any recovery of damages by BRANDEIS shall be applied first in
satisfaction of any unreimbursed expenses of both BRANDEIS and LICENSEE. If BRANDEIS elects not to intervene, LICENSEE may assume the defense and may escrow annually fifty (50%) percent of royalties otherwise due BRANDEIS and apportion any
damages in the same proportions and to the same extent as set forth in Paragraph 9.4 hereof. Any obligation of BRANDEIS to reimburse LICENSEE shall cease upon termination of this Agreement.

 Sample Live Radio Spot—“NEW FROM BRANDEIS UNIVERSITY RESEARCH” 
 This is _________ to announce a totally new idea in healthy foods from Brandeis University Research. It’s called Smart Oil (Code Name) and its in the bottled oil section, the margarine department and the cheese
case of your supermarket. This remarkable new oil is actually a perfect balance of polyunsaturates, monounsaturates and saturates to improve the critical ratio of HDL and LDL cholesterol in your cardio vascular system. Chances are you know that HDL
is referred to as good cholesterol and a diet with Smart Oil, used as a food supplement on your salads, on your vegetables, in your cooking and as a spread for sandwiches and toast, may actually increase your HDL good cholesterol and improve the
HDL/LDL cholesterol ratio, that important blood lipid ratio. Nutritionists and health professionals talk about the desirability of keeping TOTAL cholesterol below the “magic 200 level”. It is still important to keep total cholesterol low
but the ratio of HDL to LDL cholesterol is most important to reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. Obviously, there are other critical factors such as smoking, controlling blood pressure and proper exercise. But now Brandeis University
research, gives you a new tool in the battle against heart disease and stroke. I urge you to see your doctor and ask him to fill you in about new Smart Oil–the food supplement to increase HDL Cholesterol and improve the HDL/LDL ratio. Of course
no food is worth much unless it tastes good. Smart Oil has a light delicate flavor your whole family will enjoy on salads and in cooking.

 SMART OILTM FOR SALADS AND COOKING AND SMART SPREADTM INSTEAD OF BUTTER AND MARGARINE, TO HELP
INCREASE YOUR HDL (GOOD CHOLESTROL) AND IMPROVE YOUR HDL/LDL RATIO. THAT’S IMPORTANT 
 BRANDEIS CREATED SMART OILTM — A PERFECT BALANCE OF POLYUNSATURATES, MONOUNSATURATES AND SATURATES TO
REPLACE OTHER FATS IN YOUR DIET, WITH THE GOAL OF BOOSTING HDL—THE GOOD KIND OF CHOLESTEROL WHICH REMOVES THE LDL BAD CHOLESTEROL FROM YOUR BODY. IT’S NOT JUST TOTAL CHOLESTEROL, IT’S THE HDL/LDL RATIO THAT’S CRITICALLY IMPORTANT
! 
 Scientists at Brandeis University have found a way to increase HDL
cholesterol with the right balance of fats in your diet. It is a fact that polyunsaturates can help lower your total cholesterol but you want to raise, not lower, HDL (good cholesterol). By combining polyusaturates (and monounsaturates)
together with the right kind of saturates, Brandeis scientists found that this Smart Oil TM improve the HDL/LDL
cholesterol ratio.

 ADDENDUM TO LICENSE AGREEMENT 
 This ADDENDUM NUMBER 1
(hereinafter abbreviated “Addendum”) to the LICENSE AGREEMENT dated June 18, 1996 by and between BRANDEIS UNIVERSITY organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and located in Waltham, MA, and GFA
BRANDS, INC. organized and existing under the laws of Ohio and located in Cresskill, NJ. 
 The purpose of this Addendum is to extend the
scope of the License Agreement to include the manufacture, use, lease and sale of bulk oils and blended shortening compositions containing palm oil and/or any fractionated product of palm oil or palm kernel oil, combined with corn oil (the
“Licensed Product(s)”). A more detailed description of the new technology being added to the License Agreement by means of this Addendum is provided in the accompanying patent application entitled “Blends of Palm Fat and Corn Oil
Provide Oxidation-Resistant Shortenings for Baking and Frying” attached as Appendix A. 
 All of the terms of the License Agreement
shall apply to this addendum and to the manufacture, use, lease, and sale of the shortenings herein described with the following exceptions: 
 1. The
definitions in Paragraphs 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5 are amended to include the shortening described herein and the patent application attached as Appendix A. 
 2.
The royalty schedule under, and only under Paragraph 4.1(b)(i) of the License Agreement is reduced by ***% for the Licensed Product(s) described herein, but only in the commercial field, and only for such Licensed Product(s) sold directly by GFA
BRANDS, INC. This provision does not apply to products sold by sublicensees pursuant to Paragraph 4.1(b)(ii). By the term “commercial field” is meant any food service use, e.g., frying shortening for restaurants, or any industrial
manufacturing use, e.g., shortening for commercial bakers. The royalty schedule for retail sale for consumer use is not changed. 
 Notwithstanding the above, if the average net sales price per pound of the Licensed Product(s) increases or decreases from one year to the next during the lifetime of the License Agreement, then the modified royalty schedule herein,
will be adjusted proportionately upward or downward for that year, to maintain an approximately constant percentage return on net sales of Licensed Product(s). Average net sales price for the Licensed Product(s) sold in a given calendar year under
this Addendum, shall be calculated at calendar year end, by dividing the total net sales for these Licensed Product(s), by the total number of pounds of Licensed Product(s) sold that year. For the purposes of this Addendum, net sales are defined as
gross sales less cash, trade, and promotional allowances, and freight where it applies. These deductions do not include other sales and marketing expenses. 
 3. Patent filing, prosecution, and maintenance expenses under Paragraph 6.2 of the License Agreement for the patent application (attached as Appendix A) shall be the responsibility of GFA BRANDS, INC. rather than BRANDEIS UNIVERSITY.

 Second Addendum To License Agreement 
 1. This is a Second Addendum to the License Agreement dated June 18, 1996 between Brandeis University (“Brandeis”) and GFA Brands, Inc.
(“GFA”) (the “License Agreement”), that was previously amended in an Addendum signed by Brandeis on December 4, 1996 and by GFA on December 11, 1996 (the “First Addendum”). 
 2. The purpose of this Second Addendum to clarify and modify the handling of certain legal and related expenses, and to adjust Brandeis’ share of
royalties under a particular sublicense contemplated by GFA. 
 3. This Second Addendum is effective nunc pro tunc as of January 1, 2006
(the “Effective Date”). The terms of this Second Amendment shall apply to expenses incurred from and after the Effective Date. Any disputes regarding the calculation or allocation of expenses incurred prior to the Effective Date are hereby
waived and released by both parties. 
 4. Paragraph 6.2 of the License Agreement and paragraph 3 of the First Addendum are hereby modified
to make clear that GFA will pay all U.S. and Canadian patent application and maintenance expenses. 
 5. Paragraph 6.4 of the License
Agreement shall be modified to make clear that patent application and maintenance expenses in countries other than in the U.S. and Canada will be evenly shared between Brandeis and GFA. All such expenses will be paid in the first instance by GFA;
GFA will then charge Brandeis’ share against royalties. 
 6. Paragraphs 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4 of the License Agreement shall be modified to
make clear that expenses associated with a prosecution of a patent infringement or litigation shall hereafter be deemed “Enforcement Expenses.” As used herein “Enforcement Expenses” shall include all expenses incurred by GFA in
dealing with use, or potential use, of the patented 
  

 21 








 Certain portions hereof denoted with “[***]” have been omitted pursuant to a request
for confidential treatment. An unredacted copy hereof has been filed separately with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment. 
 technology by third parties or in dealing with assertions against the validity, enforceability, or scope of the patents. By way of example (and not limitation)
Enforcement Expenses shall include: (a) expenses incurred after the filing of a suit involving the patents; (b) the work leading up to bringing a lawsuit involving the patents; (c) expenses involved in re-examinations started by third
parties; (d) expenses involved in negotiations that are entered into in an attempt to reach a sublicense agreement or other settlement arrangement whether or not a lawsuit is involved. GFA will direct counsel handling such matters. 

7. Paragraphs 9.2 and 9.4 of the License Agreement shall be modified to make clear that GFA will pay all Enforcement Expenses in the first instance
and that GFA will then have the right to charge up to ***% of those payments against Brandeis’ royalties. 
 8. Paragraphs 9.2 and 9.4
of the Agreement shall be modified to provide that, in the event of any recovery in a lawsuit or as a result of the expenditure of Enforcement Expenses, such recovery shall first be applied to reimburse each party for Enforcement Expenses to the
extent paid by the parties. If after such reimbursement any recovery remains, the balance shall be paid such that GFA would get ***% and Brandeis ***% of the remainder. 
 9. The total charges against Brandeis’ royalties pursuant to paragraphs 5 and 7 hereof shall not exceed ***% of the royalties earned in any accounting period with the remainder, if any, being carried forward to
be charged in subsequent accounting periods, subject to the proviso that the total charges against Brandeis’ royalties in any given accounting period (including charges for that period pursuant to paragraph 5 and/or 7) or any carry forward do
not exceed ***% of the royalties earned in that accounting period. 
 10. GFA is considering a license arrangement with Ventura Foods, LLC
that would involve the food service industry and would require ongoing support efforts by GFA involving

 Certain portions hereof denoted with “[***]” have been omitted pursuant to a request

 substantial time commitments by GFA personnel. The parties agree that Brandeis’ share of fees, royalties and other payments under Paragraph 4.1(b)(ii) the License
Agreement shall be reduced to ***% for this sublicense to Ventura and similar sublicenses (active vs. passive) which require GFA to provide significant support services and time commitments. Brandeis share of passive sublicense income (such as
Kraft’s license) will continue at ***% of royalty income. Brandeis’ share shall also remain at ***% for existing sublicenses. 
 11. Except as expressly modified in this Second Addendum, the License Agreement and First Addendum shall continue in full force and effect. 
 12. In order to clarify without changing its intended meaning, Article XI - Assignment is rewritten to read as follows: 
 ARTICLE XI — ASSIGNMENT 
 LICENSEE may assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement and the
license granted hereby and the rights acquired hereunder without the prior written approval of BRANDEIS if such assignment or transfer shall be accompanied by a sale or other transfer of LICENSEE’s business, or by a sale or other transfer of
all of the assets of LICENSEE’S business unit relating to the LICENSED PRODUCT(S), including product formulations, brand names, receivables and inventory. Any other assignment or transfer shall require prior written approval of BRANDEIS, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. LICENSEE shall give BRANDEIS thirty (30) days prior notice of such assignment and transfer requiring BRANDEIS’ approval, and if BRANDEIS raises no objection to such assignment or transfer in
writing within said thirty (30) days, then BRANDEIS shall be deemed to have approved such assignment or transfer; however, BRANDEIS shall not be deemed to have approved such assignment and transfer unless such assignee or transferee shall have
first agreed in a written statement to LICENSEE and BRANDEIS to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Upon such agreement in writing by such assignee or transferee, and such assignment or transfer, the term LICENSEE as used herein
shall include such assignee or transferee. If LICENSEE assigns or otherwise transfers this Agreement, and the transferee shall not have agreed in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, then this Agreement shall be
terminable at will at the option of BRANDEIS. 
 BRANDEIS’s right to assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement is
subject to the same terms and conditions as those imposed on LICENSEE.
