        This Agreement, dated as of July 12, 2001, is between Bank of America,
N.A. (the "Bank") and Odwalla, Inc., a California corporation ("Odwalla") and

1. DEFINITIONS

In addition to the terms which are defined elsewhere in this Agreement, the
following terms have the meanings indicated for the purposes of this Agreement:

        1.1 "Borrowing Base" means 75% of the balance due on Acceptable
Receivables, minus the amount of the Reserves.

        1.2 "Acceptable Receivable" means an account receivable which satisfies
the following requirements:

                (a) The account has resulted from the sale of goods by any
        Borrower in the ordinary course of such Borrower's business and without
        any further obligation on the part of such Borrower to service, repair,
        or maintain any such goods sold other than pursuant to any applicable
        warranty.

                (b) There are no conditions which must be satisfied before a
        Borrower is entitled to receive payment of the account. Accounts arising
        from COD sales, consignments or guaranteed sales are not acceptable.

                (c) To the extent the debtor upon the account claims any defense
        to payment of the account, whether well founded or otherwise, the
        account balance does not include the amount of such claim.

                (d) The account balance does not include the amount of any
        counterclaims or offsets which have been or may be asserted against the
        Borrowers by the account debtor (including offsets for any "contra
        accounts" owed by the Borrowers to the account debtor for goods
        purchased by the Borrowers or for services performed for the Borrowers).
        To the extent any counterclaims, offsets, or contra accounts exist in
        favor of the debtor, such amounts shall be deducted from the account
        balance.

                (e) The account represents a genuine obligation of the debtor
        for goods sold to and accepted by the debtor. To the extent any credit
        balances exist in favor of the debtor, such credit balances shall be
        deducted from the account balance.

                (f) A Borrower has invoiced the debtor in the amount of the
        account.

                (g) A Borrower is not prohibited by the laws of the state where
        the account debtor is located from bringing an action in the courts of
        that state to enforce the debtor's obligation to pay the account. Such
        Borrower has taken all appropriate actions to ensure

        Activities Report or other similar filing with the applicable state
        agency or the qualification by such Borrower as a foreign corporation
        authorized to transact business in such state.

                (h) The account is owned by such Borrower free of any title
        defects or any liens or interests of others except the security interest
        in favor of the Bank.

                        (ii) the U.S. government or any agency or department of
                the U.S. government unless the Bank accepts the obligation and
                such Borrower complies with the procedures in the Federal
                Assignment of Claims Act of 1940 (41 U.S.C. Section 15) with

                credit issued by a bank acceptable to the Bank, and, if
                requested by the Bank, the original of such letter of credit
                and/or any usance drafts drawn under such letter of credit and

                to the Bank, or (B) the account is covered by foreign credit
                insurance acceptable to the Bank and the account is otherwise an
                Acceptable Receivable; provided that accounts from persons and

                law or laws for the relief of debtors.

                (k) The account is not the obligation of a debtor who is in

        such debtor is obligated.

        exercise of reasonable business judgment.

In addition to the foregoing limitations, the dollar amount of accounts included

        of credit (the "Commitment") is equal to the lesser of (i) the Credit

<PAGE>

                (b) This is a revolving line of credit providing for cash
        advances and letters of credit. During the availability period, the
        Borrowers may repay principal amounts and reborrow them.

                (c) The Borrowers agree not to permit the outstanding principal
        balance of advances under the line of credit plus the outstanding
        amounts of any letters of credit, including amounts drawn on letters of
        credit and not yet reimbursed, to exceed the Commitment. If the
        Borrowers exceed this limit, the Borrowers will immediately pay the
        excess to the Bank upon the Bank's demand. The Bank may apply payments
        received from the Borrowers under this paragraph to the obligations of
        the Borrowers to the Bank in the order and the manner as the Bank, in
        its discretion, may determine.

        2.2 Availability Period. The line of credit is available between the
date of this Agreement and July 1, 2003, or such earlier date as the
availability may terminate as provided in this Agreement (the "Expiration
Date").

        2.3 Conditions to Availability of Credit. In addition to the items
required to be delivered to the Bank under the paragraph entitled "Financial
Information" in the "Covenants" section of this Agreement and subject to Section
9.2, the Borrowers will promptly deliver the following to the Bank at such times
as may be requested by the Bank:

                (a) a Borrowing Base certificate, in form and detail
        satisfactory to the Bank, summarizing the Borrowers' accounts receivable
        on which the requested extension of credit is to be based, together with
        all supporting documentation required by the Bank in order to calculate
        the Borrowing Base.

                (b) copies of the record of invoices from each Borrower's sales
        journal for such accounts receivable.

                (c) copies of the purchase orders, shipping instructions, bills
        of lading and other documentation pertaining to such accounts
        receivable.

                (d) copies of the cash receipts journal pertaining to the
        Borrowing Base certificate.

        2.4 Calculation of Borrowing Base. The Borrowing Base will be calculated
by the Bank upon receipt of the Borrowing Base certificate and all supporting
documentation required under this Agreement. The Bank will provide a borrowing
base calculation to the Borrowers setting forth its determination of the
Borrowing Base, which calculation will be conclusive and binding in the absence
of manifest error. The Borrowing Base as determined by the Bank will become
effective upon calculation by the Bank and will remain in effect until a new
Borrowing Base is calculated by the Bank in accordance with this Agreement.

        2.5 Interest Rate.

                (a) Unless the Borrowers elect an optional interest rate as
        described below, the interest rate is a rate per year equal to the
        Bank's Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin as defined below.

<PAGE>

                (b) The Prime Rate is the rate of interest publicly announced
        from time to time by the Bank as its Prime Rate. The Prime Rate is set
        by the Bank based on various factors, including the Bank's costs and
        desired return, general economic conditions and other factors, and is
        used as a reference point for pricing some loans. The Bank may price
        loans to its customers at, above, or below the Prime Rate. Any change in
        the Prime Rate shall take effect at the opening of business on the day
        specified in the public announcement of a change in the Bank's Prime
        Rate.

        2.6 Repayment Terms.

                (a) The Borrowers will pay interest on August 1, 2001, and then

                (b) The Borrowers will repay in full all principal and any
        unpaid interest or other charges outstanding under this line of credit
        no later than the Expiration Date. Any interest period for an optional
        interest rate (as described below) shall expire no later than the
        Expiration Date.

                (c) The Borrowers may prepay the loan in full or in part at any
        time.

        2.7 Optional Interest Rates. Instead of the interest rate based on the
Bank's Prime Rate, the Borrowers may elect the optional interest rates listed
below during interest periods agreed to by the Bank and the Borrowers. The
optional interest rates shall be subject to the terms and conditions described
later in this Agreement. Any principal amount bearing interest at an optional
rate under this Agreement is referred to as a "Portion." The following optional
interest rates are available:

                (a) the IBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin as defined below.

                (b) the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin as defined below.

        2.8 Applicable Margin. The Applicable Margin shall be the following
amounts per annum, based upon the ratio of total liabilities to tangible net
worth (as defined in the "Covenants" section of this Agreement), as set forth in
the most recent compliance certificate received by the Bank as required in the
Covenants section; provided, however, that, until the Bank receives the first
compliance certificate, such amounts shall be those indicated for pricing level

<PAGE>

The Applicable Margin shall be in effect from the date the most recent
compliance certificate is received by the Bank until the date the next
compliance certificate is received; provided, however, that if the Borrowers
fail to timely deliver the next compliance certificate, the Applicable Margin
from the date such compliance certificate was due until the date such compliance
certificate is received by the Bank shall be the highest pricing level set forth
above.

        2.9 Letters of Credit.

                (a) This line of credit may be used for financing:

                        (i) commercial letters of credit with a maximum maturity

                sight.

                        (ii) standby letters of credit with a maximum maturity

                (b) Each Borrower agrees:

                        (i) any sum drawn under a letter of credit or
                outstanding may, at the option of the Bank, be added to the
                principal amount outstanding under this Agreement. The amount

        last day of the interest period will be determined by the Bank using the
        practices of the offshore dollar inter-bank market.

                (b) Each IBOR Rate Portion will be for an amount not less than
        One Million and no/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00).

                (c) The "IBOR Rate" means the interest rate determined by the
        following formula, rounded upward to the nearest 1/100 of one percent.
        (All amounts in the calculation will be determined by the Bank as of the
        first day of the interest period.)

              IBOR Rate =               IBOR Base Rate
                                  --------------------
                                  (1.00 - Reserve Percentage)

        Where,

                        (i) "IBOR Base Rate" means the interest rate at which
                the Bank's Grand Cayman Banking Center, Grand Cayman, British
                West Indies, would offer U.S. dollar deposits for the applicable
                interest period to other major banks in the offshore dollar
                inter-bank market.

                        (ii) "Reserve Percentage" means the total of the maximum
                reserve percentages for determining the reserves to be
                maintained by member banks of the Federal Reserve System for
                Eurocurrency Liabilities, as defined in Federal Reserve Board
                Regulation D, rounded upward to the nearest 1/100 of one
                percent. The percentage will be expressed as a decimal, and will
                include, but not be limited to, marginal, emergency,
                supplemental, special, and other reserve percentages.

                (d) Each prepayment of an IBOR Rate Portion, whether voluntary,
        by reason of acceleration or otherwise, will be accompanied by the
        amount of accrued interest on the amount prepaid, and a prepayment fee
        as described below. A "prepayment" is a payment of an amount on a date
        earlier than the scheduled payment date for such amount as required by
        this Agreement.

                (e) The prepayment fee shall be in an amount sufficient to
        compensate the Bank for any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a
        result of the prepayment, including any loss of anticipated profits and
        any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of
        funds obtained by it to maintain such Portion or from fees payable to
        terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The
        Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by
        the Bank in connection with the foregoing. For purposes of this
        paragraph, the Bank shall be deemed to have funded each Portion by a
        matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable interbank market,
        whether or not such Portion was in fact so funded.

                (f) The Bank will have no obligation to accept an election for
        an IBOR Rate Portion if any of the following described events has
        occurred and is continuing:

                        (i) Dollar deposits in the principal amount, and for
                periods equal to the interest period, of an IBOR Rate Portion
                are not available in the offshore dollar inter-bank market; or

                        (ii) the IBOR Rate does not accurately reflect the cost
                of an IBOR Rate Portion.

        3.3 LIBOR Rate. The election of LIBOR Rates shall be subject to the
following terms and requirements:

                (a) The interest period during which the LIBOR Rate will be in
        effect will be one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine,
        ten, eleven or twelve months. The first day of the interest period must
        be a day other than a Saturday or a Sunday on which the Bank is open for
        business in New York and London and dealing in offshore dollars (a
        "LIBOR Banking Day"). The last day of the interest period and the actual
        number of days during the interest period will be determined by the Bank
        using the practices of the London inter-bank market.

                (b) Each LIBOR Rate Portion will be for an amount not less than
        One Million and no/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00).

                (c) The "LIBOR Rate" means the interest rate determined by the
        following formula, rounded upward to the nearest 1/100 of one percent.
        (All amounts in the calculation will be determined by the Bank as of the
        first day of the interest period.)

                    LIBOR Rate =         London Inter-Bank Offered Rate
                                         ------------------------------
                                           (1.00 - Reserve Percentage)

        Where,


                                      -9-
<PAGE>

                        (i) "London Inter-Bank Offered Rate" means the average
                per annum interest rate at which U.S. dollar deposits would be
                offered for the applicable interest period by major banks in the
                London inter-bank market, as shown on the Telerate Page 3750 (or
                such other page as may replace it) at approximately 11:00 a.m.
                London time two (2) London Banking Days before the commencement
                of the interest period. If such rate does not appear on the
                Telerate Page 3750 (or such other page that may replace it), the
                rate for that interest period will be determined by such
                alternate method as reasonably selected by Bank. A "London
                Banking Day" is a day on which the Bank's London Banking Center
                is open for business and dealing in offshore dollars.

                        (ii) "Reserve Percentage" means the total of the maximum
                reserve percentages for determining the reserves to be
                maintained by member banks of the Federal Reserve System for
                Eurocurrency Liabilities, as defined in Federal Reserve Board
                Regulation D, rounded upward to the nearest 1/100 of one
                percent. The percentage will be expressed as a decimal, and will
                include, but not be limited to, marginal, emergency,
                supplemental, special, and other reserve percentages.

                (d) The Borrowers shall irrevocably request a LIBOR Rate Portion
        no later than 12:00 noon Pacific time on the LIBOR Banking Day preceding
        the day on which the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate will be set, as
        specified above. For example, if there are no intervening holidays or
        weekend days in any of the relevant locations, the request must be made
        at least three days before the LIBOR Rate takes effect.

                (e) Each prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Portion, whether voluntary,
        by reason of acceleration or otherwise, will be accompanied by the
        amount of accrued interest on the amount prepaid and a prepayment fee as
        described below. A "prepayment" is a payment of an amount on a date
        earlier than the scheduled payment date for such amount as required by
        this Agreement.

                (f) The prepayment fee shall be in an amount sufficient to
        compensate the Bank for any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a
        result of the prepayment, including any loss of anticipated profits and
        any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of
        funds obtained by it to maintain such Portion or from fees payable to
        terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The
        Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by
        the Bank in connection with the foregoing. For purposes of this
        paragraph, the Bank shall be deemed to have funded each Portion by a
        matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable interbank market,
        whether or not such Portion was in fact so funded.

                (g) The Bank will have no obligation to accept an election for a
        LIBOR Rate Portion if any of the following described events has occurred
        and is continuing:

                        (i) Dollar deposits in the principal amount, and for
                periods equal to the interest period, of a LIBOR Rate Portion
                are not available in the London inter-bank market; or


                                      -10-
<PAGE>

                        (ii) the LIBOR Rate does not accurately reflect the cost
                of a LIBOR Rate Portion.

4. FEES AND EXPENSES

        4.1 Fees.

                (a) Loan fee. The Borrowers agree to pay a loan fee in the
        amount of Thirty-Five Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($35,000.00). This fee
        is due on or before the date of this Agreement.

                (b) Waiver Fee. If the Bank, at its discretion, agrees to waive
        or amend any terms of this Agreement, the Borrowers will, at the Bank's
        option, pay the Bank a fee for each waiver or amendment in an amount
        advised by the Bank at the time the Borrowers request the waiver or
        amendment. Nothing in this paragraph shall imply that the Bank is
        obligated to agree to any waiver or amendment requested by the
        Borrowers. The Bank may impose additional requirements as a condition to
        any waiver or amendment.

        4.2 Expenses. The Borrowers agree to repay the Bank within five business
days after demand for expenses that include, but are not limited to, filing,
recording and search fees, appraisal fees, title report fees, documentation
fees, and audit costs.

        4.3 Reimbursement Costs.

                (a) The Borrowers agree to reimburse the Bank within five
        business days after demand for any reasonable expenses it incurs in the
        preparation of this Agreement and any agreement or instrument required
        by this Agreement. Expenses include, but are not limited to, reasonable
        attorneys' fees, including any allocated costs of the Bank's in-house
        counsel, and audit costs, including any allocated costs of the Bank's
        in-house auditors.

                (b) The Borrowers agree to reimburse the Bank within five
        business days after demand for the cost of periodic audits of the
        personal property collateral securing this Agreement, at such intervals
        as the Bank may reasonably require, provided that so long as no event of
        default exists, such audits, for which the Borrowers shall be charged,
        shall be limited to two (2) in any one fiscal year of Borrowers. The
        audits may be performed by employees of the Bank or by independent
        auditors.

                (c) The Borrowers agree to reimburse Bank within five business
        days after demand for the cost of any appraisal of the personal property
        collateral securing this Agreement which may be conducted by the Bank
        after the occurrence of an event of default. The appraisals may be
        performed by employees of the Bank or by independent appraisers.

5. COLLATERAL

        5.1 Personal Property. The Borrowers' obligations to the Bank under this
Agreement will be secured by personal property the Borrowers now own or will own
in the future as listed below. The collateral is further defined in security
agreement(s) executed by the Borrowers. In


                                      -11-
<PAGE>

addition, all personal property collateral securing this Agreement shall also
secure all other present and future obligations of the Borrowers or any one of
them to the Bank (including Bank Products but excluding any consumer credit
covered by the federal Truth in Lending law, unless the Borrowers has otherwise
agreed in writing). All personal property collateral securing any other present
or future obligations of the Borrowers or any one of them to the Bank shall also
secure this Agreement.

                (a) Inventory.

                (b) Receivables.

                (c) Patents, trademarks and other general intangibles.

6. DISBURSEMENTS, PAYMENTS AND COSTS

        6.1 Disbursements and Payments.

                (a) Each payment by the Borrowers will be made at the Bank's
        banking center (or other location) selected by the Bank from time to
        time as designated in writing to any Borrower; and will be made in
        immediately available funds, or such other type of funds selected by the
        Bank.

                (b) Each disbursement by the Bank and each payment by the
        Borrowers will be evidenced by records kept by the Bank. In addition,
        the Bank may, at its discretion, require the Borrowers to sign one or
        more promissory notes.

        6.2 Telephone and Telefax Authorization.

                (a) The Bank may honor telephone or telefax instructions for
        advances or repayments or for the designation of optional interest rates
        and telefax requests for the issuance of letters of credit given, or
        purported to be given, by any one of the individuals authorized to sign
        agreements and instruments on behalf of each Borrower entered into in
        connection with this Agreement, or any other individual designated by
        any one of such authorized signers.

                (b) Advances will be deposited in and repayments will be
        withdrawn from Odwalla's account number 14759-00130, or such other
        accounts with the Bank as designated in writing by the Borrowers.

                (c) The Borrowers will indemnify and hold the Bank harmless from
        all liability, loss, and costs in connection with any act resulting from
        telephone or telefax instructions the Bank reasonably believes are made
        by any individual authorized by the Borrowers to give such instructions.
        This paragraph will survive this Agreement's termination, and will
        benefit the Bank and its officers, employees, and agents.


                                      -12-
<PAGE>

        6.3 Direct Debit (Pre-Billing).

                (a) The Borrowers agree that the Bank will debit Odwalla's
        account number 14759-00130, or such other of the Borrowers' accounts
        with the Bank as designated in writing by the Borrowers (the "Designated
        Account") on the date each payment of interest and any fees from the
        Borrowers becomes due (the "Due Date").

                (b) Approximately 7 days prior to each Due Date, the Bank will
        mail to the Borrowers a statement of the amounts that will be due on
        that Due Date (the "Billed Amount"). The calculation will be made on the
        assumption that no new extensions of credit or payments will be made
        between the date of the billing statement and the Due Date, and that
        there will be no changes in the applicable interest rate.

                (c) The Bank will debit the Designated Account for the Billed
        Amount, regardless of the actual amount due on that date (the "Accrued
        Amount"). If the Billed Amount debited to the Designated Account differs
        from the Accrued Amount, the discrepancy will be treated as follows:

                        (i) If the Billed Amount is less than the Accrued
                Amount, the Billed Amount for the following Due Date will be
                increased by the amount of the discrepancy. The Borrowers will
                not be in default by reason of any such discrepancy.

                        (ii) If the Billed Amount is more than the Accrued
                Amount, the Billed Amount for the following Due Date will be
                decreased by the amount of the discrepancy.

        Regardless of any such discrepancy, interest will continue to accrue
        based on the actual amount of principal outstanding without compounding.
        The Bank will not pay the Borrowers interest on any overpayment.

                (d) The Borrowers will maintain sufficient funds in the
        Designated Account to cover each debit. If there are insufficient funds
        in the Designated Account on the date the Bank enters any debit
        authorized by this Agreement, the Bank may reverse the debit.

        6.4 Banking Days. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, a banking
day is a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial
banks are authorized to close, or are in fact closed, in the state where the
Bank's lending office is located. All payments and disbursements which would be
due on a day which is not a banking day will be due on the next banking day. All
payments received on a day which is not a banking day will be applied to the
credit on the next banking day.

        6.5 Taxes.

                (a) If any payments to the Bank under this Agreement are made
        from outside the United States, the Borrowers will not deduct any
        foreign taxes from any payments they make to the Bank. If any such taxes
        are imposed on any payments made by the Borrowers (including payments
        under this paragraph), the Borrowers will pay the taxes


                                      -13-
<PAGE>

        and will also pay to the Bank, at the time interest is paid, any
        additional amount which the Bank specifies as necessary to preserve the
        after-tax yield the Bank would have received if such taxes had not been
        imposed. The Borrowers will confirm that they have paid the taxes by
        giving the Bank official tax receipts (or notarized copies) within 30
        days after the due date.

                (b) Payments made by the Borrowers to the Bank will be made
        without deduction of United States withholding or similar taxes. If any
        Borrower is required to pay U.S. withholding taxes, the Borrowers will
        pay such taxes in addition to the amounts due to the Bank under this
        Agreement. If the Borrowers fail to make such tax payments when due,
        each Borrower indemnifies the Bank against any liability for such taxes,
        as well as for any related interest, expenses, additions to tax, or
        penalties asserted against or suffered by the Bank with respect to such
        taxes.

        6.6 Additional Costs. The Borrowers will pay the Bank, within five
business days after demand, for the Bank's costs or losses arising from any
statute or regulation, or any request or requirement of a regulatory agency
which is applicable to all national banks or a class of all national banks of
which the Bank is a party. The costs and losses will be allocated to the loan in
a manner determined by the Bank, using any reasonable method. The costs include
the following:

                (a) any reserve or deposit requirements; and

                (b) any capital requirements relating to the Bank's assets and
        commitments for credit.

        6.7 Interest Calculation. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement,
all interest and fees, if any, will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
and the actual number of days elapsed. This results in more interest or a higher
fee than if a 365-day year is used.

        6.8 Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
event of default under this Agreement, principal amounts outstanding under this
Agreement will at the option of the Bank bear interest at a rate which is two
(2) percentage points higher than the rate of interest otherwise provided under
this Agreement. This will not constitute a waiver of any default.

        6.9 Interest Compounding. At the Bank's sole option in each instance,
any interest, fees or costs which are not paid when due under this Agreement
shall bear interest from the due date at the rate of interest otherwise provided
under this Agreement. This may result in compounding of interest.

        6.10 Overdrafts. At the Bank's sole option in each instance, the Bank
may do one of the following:

                (a) The Bank may make advances under this Agreement to prevent
        or cover an overdraft on any account of any Borrower with the Bank. Each
        such advance will accrue interest from the date of the advance or the
        date on which the account is overdrawn, whichever occurs first, at the
        interest rate described in this Agreement.


                                      -14-
<PAGE>

                (b) The Bank may reduce the amount of credit otherwise available
        under this Agreement by the amount of any overdraft on any account of
        any Borrower with the Bank.

This paragraph shall not be deemed to authorize the Borrowers to create
overdrafts on any of the Borrowers' accounts with the Bank.

        6.11 Payments in Kind. If the Bank requires delivery in kind of the
proceeds of collection of the Borrowers' accounts receivable as provided in any
security agreement required under this Agreement, such proceeds shall be
credited to interest, principal, and other sums owed to the Bank under this
Agreement in the order and proportion determined by the Bank in its sole
discretion. All such credits will be conditioned upon collection and any
returned items may, at the Bank's option, be charged to the Borrowers.

7. CONDITIONS

8. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

        When the Borrowers sign this Agreement, and until the Bank is repaid in

qualified to do business in those states listed on Schedule 8.4, and after the
date of this Agreement each Borrower is qualified to do business and in good
standing in all states where the nature of its business makes such qualification
necessary except where the failure to be so qualified and in good standing would
not have any material adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or
otherwise), operations, properties or prospects of Borrowers, taken as a whole,
or on any Borrower's ability to repay the credit ("Material Adverse Effect").

        8.5 No Conflicts. This Agreement does not conflict with any material
law, agreement, or obligation by which any Borrower is bound.

        8.6 Financial Information. All financial and other information that has

(financial or otherwise), operations, properties or prospects of the Borrowers,
taken as a whole.

provisions) and has no knowledge of any pending assessments or adjustments of
its income tax for any year and all taxes due in excess of $50,000.00 have been

        under the minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Code with respect

representatives will have the right at any reasonable time, after giving
reasonable notice to the Borrowers, to enter and visit any locations where the
collateral securing this Agreement (the "Collateral") is located for the
purposes of observing the Collateral, taking and removing environmental samples,

interfering with the Borrowers' use of the Collateral. The Bank is under no duty
to observe the Collateral or to


                                      -26-
<PAGE>

conduct tests, and any such acts by the Bank will be solely for the purposes of
protecting the Bank's security and preserving the Bank's rights under this
Agreement. No site visit, observation or testing or any report or findings made

default of the Borrowers; (ii) impose any liability on the Bank; or (iii) be a
representation or warranty of any kind regarding the Collateral (including its
condition or value or compliance with any laws) or the Environmental Report
(including its accuracy or completeness). In the event the Bank has a duty or
obligation under applicable laws, regulations or other requirements to disclose
an Environmental Report to the Borrowers or any other party, the Borrowers
authorize the Bank to make such a disclosure. The Borrowers further understands
and agree that any Environmental Report or other information regarding a site

other disclosure obligations of the Borrowers) by the Borrowers without advice
or assistance from the Bank.

        10.2 Definition of Hazardous Substances. "Hazardous substances" means

"toxic," "hazardous," "pollutant," or "contaminant" or a similar designation or
regulation under any federal, state or local law (whether under common law,
statute, regulation or otherwise) or judicial or administrative interpretation
of such, including without limitation petroleum or natural gas. This indemnity
will survive repayment of the Borrowers' obligations to the Bank.

11. DEFAULT

        If any of the following events (each an "event of default") occurs, the
Bank may do one or more of the following: declare the Borrowers in default, stop
making any additional credit available to the Borrowers, and require the
Borrowers to repay their entire debt immediately and without prior notice. If an
event of default occurs under the paragraph entitled "Bankruptcy," below, with
respect to any Borrower, then the entire debt outstanding under this Agreement
will automatically be due immediately.

        11.1 Failure to Pay. Any Borrower fails to make a payment under this
Agreement when due.

        11.2 Lien Priority. The Bank fails to have an enforceable first lien

        11.6 Lawsuits. Any lawsuit or lawsuits are filed against any one or more
of the Borrowers which in the reasonable judgment of the Borrowers would result
in a judgment in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and no/100 Dollars
($250,000.00) or more in excess of any insurance coverage.

        11.7 Judgments. Any final judgments or arbitration awards are entered
against any one or more of the Borrowers, or any one or more of the Borrowers
enters into any settlement agreements with respect to any litigation or
arbitration, in an aggregate amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and no/100
Dollars ($250,000.00) or more in excess of any insurance coverage, which is not
dismissed, discharged, satisfied, stayed or bonded pending appeal within 30 days
thereof, provided, however, that any judgment, arbitration award, or settlement
with respect thereto which creates a lien on the collateral granted to the Bank
under this Agreement shall be an event of default.

        11.8 Government Action. Any government authority takes action that the
Bank believes materially adversely affects Borrowers' financial condition, taken
as a whole, or ability to repay.

        11.9 Material Adverse Change. A material adverse change occurs in

Agreement.

        11.11 Other Bank Agreements. Any Borrower fails to meet the conditions
of, or fails to perform any obligation under any other agreement any Borrower
has with the Bank or any affiliate of the Bank. If, in the Bank's opinion, the
breach is capable of being remedied, the breach, unless such breach is a failure
to make any payment when due, will not be considered an event of default under
this Agreement for a period of ten (10) days after the date on which the Bank
gives written notice of the breach to the Borrowers; provided, however, that the
Bank will not be obligated to extend any additional credit to the Borrowers
during that period.

        11.12 ERISA Plans. Any one or more of the following events occurs with
respect to a Plan of any Borrower subject to Title IV of ERISA, provided such

Bank, to subject such Borrower to any tax, penalty or liability (or any
combination of the foregoing) which, in the aggregate, could have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition of such Borrower:

                (a) A reportable event shall occur under Section 4043(c) of
        ERISA with respect to a Plan.

mortgage, or other document required by or delivered in connection with this
Agreement or any such document is no longer in effect, or any guarantor purports
to revoke or disavow the guaranty. This includes any failure by any Borrower to
comply with any financial covenants set forth in this Agreement, whether such
failure is evidenced by financial statements delivered to the Bank or is
otherwise known to any Borrower or the Bank. If the breach is capable of being
remedied, the breach will not be considered an event of default under this
Agreement for a period of ten (10) days after the date on which the Bank gives
written notice of the breach to such Borrower; provided, however, that the Bank
will not be obligated to extend any additional credit to the Borrowers during
that period.

12. ENFORCING THIS AGREEMENT; MISCELLANEOUS

        12.1 GAAP. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, all financial
information provided to the Bank and all financial covenants will be made under
generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.

        12.2 California Law. This Agreement is governed by California law.

        12.3 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is binding on the Borrower's
and the Bank's successors and assignees. The Borrower agrees that it may not
assign this Agreement without the Bank's prior consent.

        12.4 Arbitration and Waiver of Jury Trial.

                (a) This paragraph concerns the resolution of any controversies
        or claims between one or more of the Borrowers and the Bank, whether
        arising in contract, tort or by statute, including but not limited to
        controversies or claims that arise out of or relate to: (i) this
        Agreement (including any renewals, extensions or modifications); or (ii)
        any document related to this Agreement (collectively a "Claim").

                (b) At the request of any Borrower or the Bank, any Claim shall
        be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal
        Arbitration Act (Title 9, U. S. Code) (the "Act"). The Act will apply
        even though this Agreement provides that it is governed by the law of a
        specified state.

                (c) Arbitration proceedings will be determined in accordance
        with the Act, the applicable rules and procedures for the arbitration of
        disputes of JAMS or any successor thereof ("JAMS"), and the terms of
        this paragraph. In the event of any inconsistency, the terms of this
        paragraph shall control.

                (d) The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS and conducted
        in any U. S. state where real or tangible personal property collateral
        for this credit is located or if there is no such collateral, in
        California. All Claims shall be determined by one arbitrator; however,
        if Claims exceed Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), upon the request of
        any party, the Claims shall be decided by three arbitrators. All
        arbitration hearings shall


                                      -29-
<PAGE>

        commence within ninety (90) days of the demand for arbitration and close
        within ninety (90) days of commencement and the award of the
        arbitrator(s) shall be issued within thirty (30) days of the close of
        the hearing. However, the arbitrator(s), upon a showing of good cause,
        may extend the commencement of the hearing for up to an additional sixty
        (60) days. The arbitrator(s) shall provide a concise written statement
        of reasons for the award. The arbitration award may be submitted to any
        court having jurisdiction to be confirmed and enforced.

                (e) The arbitrator(s) will have the authority to decide whether
        any Claim is barred by the statute of limitations and, if so, to dismiss
        the arbitration on that basis. For purposes of the application of the
        statute of limitations, the service on JAMS under applicable JAMS rules
        of a notice of Claim is the equivalent of the filing of a lawsuit. Any
        dispute concerning this arbitration provision or whether a Claim is
        arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrator(s). The arbitrator(s)
        shall have the power to award legal fees pursuant to the terms of this
        Agreement.

                (f) This paragraph does not limit the right of the Borrowers or
        the Bank to: (i) exercise self-help remedies, such as but not limited
        to, setoff; (ii) initiate judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure against
        any real or personal property collateral; (iii) exercise any judicial or
        power of sale rights, or (iv) act in a court of law to obtain an interim
        remedy, such as but not limited to, injunctive relief, writ of
        possession or appointment of a receiver, or additional or supplementary
        remedies.

                (g) The procedure described above will not apply if the Claim,
        at the time of the proposed submission to arbitration, arises from or
        relates to an obligation to the Bank secured by real property. In this
        case, both the Borrowers and the Bank must consent to submission of the
        Claim to arbitration. If both parties do not consent to arbitration, the
        Claim will be resolved as follows: The Borrowers and the Bank will
        designate a referee (or a panel of referees) selected under the auspices
        of JAMS in the same manner as arbitrators are selected in JAMS
        administered proceedings. The designated referee(s) will be appointed by
        a court as provided in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638
        and the following related sections. The referee (or the presiding
        referee of the panel) will be an active attorney or a retired judge. The
        award that results from the decision of the referee(s) will be entered
        as a judgment in the court that appointed the referee, in accordance
        with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 644
        and 645.

                (h) The filing of a court action is not intended to constitute a
        waiver of the right of the Borrowers or the Bank, including the suing
        party, thereafter to require submittal of the Claim to arbitration.

                (i) By agreeing to binding arbitration, the parties irrevocably
        and voluntarily waive any right they may have to a trial by jury in
        respect of any Claim. Furthermore, without intending in any way to limit
        this agreement to arbitrate, to the extent any Claim is not arbitrated,
        the parties irrevocably and voluntarily waive any right they may have to
        a trial by jury in respect of such Claim. This provision is a material
        inducement for the parties entering into this Agreement.


                                      -30-

        12.5 Severability; Waivers. If any part of this Agreement is not
enforceable, the rest of the Agreement may be enforced. The Bank retains all
rights, even if it makes a loan after default. If the Bank waives a default, it
may enforce a later default. Any consent or waiver under this Agreement must be
in writing.

        12.6 Administration Costs. The Borrowers shall pay the Bank for all
reasonable costs incurred by the Bank in connection with administering this
Agreement.

        12.7 Attorneys' Fees. The Borrowers shall reimburse the Bank for any
reasonable costs and attorneys' fees incurred by the Bank in connection with the
enforcement or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement and
any other documents executed in connection with this Agreement, and in
connection with any amendment, waiver, "workout" or restructuring under this
Agreement. In the event of a lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, the prevailing
party is entitled to recover costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in
connection with the lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, as determined by the
court or arbitrator. In the event that any case is commenced by or against any
of the Borrowers under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) or any
similar or successor statute, the Bank is entitled to recover costs and
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the Bank related to the preservation,
protection, or enforcement of any rights of the Bank in such a case. As used in
this paragraph, "attorneys' fees" includes the allocated costs of the Bank's
in-house counsel.

        12.8 Joint and Several Liability.

                (a) Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable
        to the Bank for the payment of all obligations arising under this
        Agreement, and that such liability is independent of the obligations of
        the other Borrower(s). The Bank may bring an action against any
        Borrower, whether an action is brought against the other Borrower(s).

                (b) Each Borrower agrees that any release which may be given by
        the Bank to the other Borrower(s) or any guarantor will not release such
        Borrower from its obligations under this Agreement.

                (c) Each Borrower waives any right to assert against the Bank
        any defense, setoff, counterclaim, or claims which such Borrower may
        have against the other Borrower(s) or any other party liable to the Bank
        for the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement.

                (d) Each Borrower waives any defense by reason of any other
        Borrower's or any other person's defense, disability, or release from
        liability. The Bank can exercise its rights against each Borrower even
        if any other Borrower or any other person no longer is liable because of
        a statute of limitations or for other reasons.

                (e) Each Borrower agrees that it is solely responsible for
        keeping itself informed as to the financial condition of the other
        Borrower(s) and of all circumstances which bear upon the risk of
        nonpayment. Each Borrower waives any right it may have to require the
        Bank to disclose to such Borrower any information which the Bank may now
        or hereafter acquire concerning the financial condition of the other
        Borrower(s).


                                      -31-
<PAGE>

                (f) Each Borrower waives all rights to notices of default or
        nonperformance by any other Borrower under this Agreement. Each Borrower
        further waives all rights to notices of the existence or the creation of
        new indebtedness by any other Borrower and all rights to any other
        notices to any party liable on any of the credit extended under this
        Agreement.

                (g) The Borrowers represent and warrant to the Bank that each
        will derive benefit, directly and indirectly, from the collective
        administration and availability of credit under this Agreement. The
        Borrowers agree that the Bank will not be required to inquire as to the
        disposition by any Borrower of funds disbursed in accordance with the
        terms of this Agreement.

                (h) Until all obligations of the Borrowers to the Bank under
        this Agreement have been paid in full and any commitments of the Bank or
        facilities provided by the Bank under this Agreement have been
        terminated, each Borrower (a) waives any right of subrogation,
        reimbursement, indemnification and contribution (contractual, statutory
        or otherwise), including without limitation, any claim or right of
        subrogation under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) or
        any successor statute, which such Borrower may now or hereafter have
        against any other Borrower with respect to the indebtedness incurred
        under this Agreement; (b) waives any right to enforce any remedy which
        the Bank now has or may hereafter have against any other Borrower, and
        waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security now
        or hereafter held by the Bank.

                (i) Each Borrower waives any right to require the Bank to
        proceed against any other Borrower or any other person; proceed against
        or exhaust any security; or pursue any other remedy. Further, each
        Borrower consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action with
        respect to any other Borrower which might in any manner or to any extent
        vary the risks of the Borrower under this Agreement or which, but for
        this provision, might operate as a discharge of the Borrower.

        12.9 One Agreement. This Agreement and any related security or other
agreements required by this Agreement, collectively:

                (a) represent the sum of the understandings and agreements
        between the Bank and the Borrowers concerning this credit;

                (b) replace any prior oral or written agreements between the
        Bank and the Borrowers concerning this credit; and

                (c) are intended by the Bank and the Borrowers as the final,
        complete and exclusive statement of the terms agreed to by them.

In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other agreements
required by this Agreement, this Agreement will prevail.

        12.10 Disposition of Schedules, Reports, Etc. Delivered by Borrowers.
The Bank will not be obligated to return any schedules, invoices, statements,
budgets, forecasts, reports or other


                                      -32-
<PAGE>

papers delivered by the Borrowers. The Bank will destroy or otherwise dispose of
such materials at such time as the Bank, in its discretion, deems appropriate.

        12.11 Returned Merchandise. Until the Bank exercises its rights to
collect the accounts receivable as provided under any security agreement
required under this Agreement, the Borrowers may continue their present policies
for returned merchandise and adjustments. Credit adjustments with respect to
returned merchandise shall be made immediately upon receipt of the merchandise
by the Borrowers or upon such other disposition of the merchandise by the debtor
in accordance with the Borrowers' instructions. If a credit adjustment is made
with respect to any Acceptable Receivable, the amount of such adjustment shall
no longer be included in the amount of such Acceptable Receivable in computing
the Borrowing Base.

        12.12 Verification of Receivables. The Bank may at any time, either
orally or in writing, request confirmation from any debtor of the current amount
and status of the accounts receivable upon which such debtor is obligated.

        12.13 Waiver of Confidentiality. The Borrowers authorize the Bank to
discuss the Borrowers' financial affairs and business operations with any
accountants, auditors, business consultants, or other professional advisors
employed by the Borrowers, and authorizes such parties to disclose to the Bank
such financial and business information or reports (including management
letters) concerning the Borrowers as the Bank may request.

        12.14 Indemnification. Each Borrower will indemnify and hold the Bank
harmless from any loss, liability, damages, judgments, and costs of any kind
relating to or arising directly or indirectly out of (a) this Agreement or any
document required hereunder, (b) any credit extended or committed by the Bank to
the Borrowers hereunder, (c) any claim, whether well-founded or otherwise, that
there has been a failure to comply with any law regulating the Borrowers' sales
or leases to or performance of services for debtors obligated upon the
Borrowers' accounts receivable and disclosures in connection therewith, and (d)
any litigation or proceeding related to or arising out of this Agreement, any
such document, any such credit, or any such claim; provided that the Borrowers
shall have no obligation to any indemnified person for any loss, liability,
damages, judgments or costs resulting from such person's fraud, gross negligence
or willful misconduct or breach of their obligations under this Agreement or any
other agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement.
This indemnity includes but is not limited to attorneys' fees (including the
allocated cost of in-house counsel). This indemnity extends to the Bank, its
parent, subsidiaries and all of their directors, officers, employees, agents,
successors, attorneys, and assigns. This indemnity will survive repayment of the
Borrowers' obligations to the Bank. All sums due to the Bank hereunder shall be
obligations of the Borrowers, due and payable immediately without demand.

        12.15 Notices. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or in another
agreement between the Bank and the Borrowers, all notices required under this
Agreement shall be personally delivered or sent by first class mail, postage
prepaid, or by overnight courier, to the addresses on the signature page of this
Agreement, or sent by facsimile to the fax numbers listed on the signature page,
or to such other addresses as the Bank and the Borrowers may specify from time
to time in writing. Notices and other communications sent by (a) first class
mail shall be deemed delivered on the earlier of actual receipt or on the fourth
business day after deposit in


                                      -33-

the U.S. mail, postage prepaid, (b) overnight courier shall be deemed delivered
on the next business day, and (c) telecopy shall be deemed delivered when
transmitted. The parties acknowledge and agree that all notices (including
requests for advances), certificates, consents, elections, requests and other
communications from Borrowers to Bank under this Agreement or any agreements
entered into in connection with this Agreement, may be made solely by Odwalla,
acting on behalf of itself and Fresh Samantha.

        12.16 Bank Products. The Borrowers may request and the Bank may, in its
sole and absolute discretion, arrange for the Borrowers to obtain from the Bank
or the Bank's affiliates Bank Products although the Borrowers are not required
to do so. If Bank Products are provided by an affiliate of the Bank, each
Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold the Bank harmless from any and all costs
and obligations now or hereafter incurred by the Bank which arise from any
indemnity given by the Bank to its affiliates related to such Bank Products;
provided, however, nothing contained herein is intended to limit any Borrower's
rights, with respect to the Bank or its affiliates, if any, which arise as a
result of the execution of documents by and between any Borrower and the Bank or
any of its affiliates which relate to Bank Products. The agreement contained in
this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement. Each Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of Bank Products from the Bank or the
Bank's affiliates (a) is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Bank or the
Bank's affiliates, and (b) is subject to all rules and regulations of the Bank
or the Bank's affiliates.

        12.17 Headings. Article and paragraph headings are for reference only
and shall not affect the interpretation or meaning of any provisions of this
Agreement.

        12.18 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in as many
counterparts as necessary or convenient, and by the different parties on
separate counterparts each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an
original but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same
agreement.
