Dear Ismail,

This is to confirm our telecon today,  during which you have expressed  interest
in acting as our representative in Saudi Arabia and Jordan with the objective of
securing orders for our products,  and especially the frozen concentrated orange
juice (FCOJ) in 12 oz cans,  as first step. In due course you will secure orders
for all our  products,  which  include:  fresh oranges and  grapefruits,  frozen
concentrated  cranberry,  apple and grapefruit  juices,  and dried  cranberries,
strawberries, blueberries, apples and cherries.

We accept you request for a test  period  till the end of  December  2001.  Upon
executed  orders for a minimum of US $ 100,000.00 you will be eligible for a new
term of 12 months,  during which the executed  orders should amount to a minimum
of US $  500,000.00.  The third  period will  require  annual sale volume in the
amount  of $  1,000,000.00.  For the 4th and  subsequent  years we need to see a
minimum  growth rate of 10% over the actual sales of the previous year, in order
for you to have renewed your representation agreement from year to year.

You will receive a 5% commission,  added to our selling price;  said  commission
will be paid upon our collection from the importer.

The FCOJ information is as follows:

12 oz.  (355 ml) cans
24 cans per case
780 cases per 20ft container
1944 cases per 40ft container

(US $ 20.00 is our price plus 5% [US $ 1.00] to cover your commission)

payment by Confirmed Irrevocable Letter of Credit on a primary US bank at sight.

Mixing instructions: add 3 cans of water to 1 can of FCOJ.

FCOJ samples will be made available to you, at no cost, for your shipment to
potential importers in the two countries.

In enclosure please find 30 sale brochures for your sale presentations and three
cans of FCOJ for your taste testing.
