    RICE BRAN SUPPLY

    AND PRODUCTION AGREEMENT

    

    

    This Rice Bran Supply and Production Agreement (“Agreement’) is entered into as of July 3, 2018 (“Effective Date”), by and between Golden Ridge Rice Mills, LLC, an
        Arkansas limited liability company with principal offices at 1784 Highway 1 North, Wynne Arkansas 72396 (“Golden Ridge”) and RiceBran Technologies, a
        California corporation with principal offices at 1330 Lake Robbins Drive, Suite 250, The Woodlands, Texas 77380 (“RBT”) (each a “Party” and collectively the “Parties”). In
        consideration of the mutual covenants and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

    

    

    Recitals

    

    

    A.         Golden Ridge desires to supply to RBT all or such
        portion of the stabilized rice bran (“SRB”) produced by Golden Ridge at its rice mill facility at 1784 Highway 1 North, Wynne, Arkansas (“Facility”) as is required by RBT, subject to the minimum supply and maximum purchase amounts described below, and on the terms and conditions contained herein.

    

    

    B.        RBT desires to acquire such SRB from Golden Ridge on
        the terms and conditions contained herein.

    

    

    Agreement

    

    

    1.        Supply and Purchase of SRB. During each consecutive twelve (12) month period following
          the Effective Date during the term of this Agreement (each a “Contract Year”), Golden
        Ridge agrees to (i) supply, sell and deliver to RBT a minimum of nine million, six hundred thousand (9,600,000) pounds of SRB (“Minimum Supply Quantity”), and (ii) use its best efforts to supply, in accordance with the terms hereof, such additional amounts of SRB
        in excess of the Minimum Supply Quantity as RBT may require pursuant to SRB Orders (as defined below) that RBT submits to Golden Ridge. During each Contract Year, RBT agrees to purchase from Golden Ridge a maximum of nineteen million, two hundred thousand (19,200,000) pounds of SRB or such lesser amount as Golden Ridge may produce from the Facility pursuant to RBT SRB. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
        Golden Ridge agrees that it shall offer for sale to RBT in accordance herewith all the SRB produced by Golden Ridge at the Facility and that all SRB shall comply with the Specifications (as defined below).

    

    

    1.1.       Delivery of SRB; Purchase Orders. In accordance with the terms of Section 1.1 and such other terms as the parties may mutually agree in good faith, RBT will from time to time during the term of this Agreement deliver to
        Golden Ridge purchase orders for the SRB (” SRB Orders”) in an aggregate amount of no less than the Minimum Purchase Quantity. RBT will coordinate the transportation and logistics of each delivery in accordance therewith. RBT agrees to forecast and provide commercially reasonable lead times for its processing orders of SRB as provided in Section 3. RBT shall submit SRB Orders each month for the purchase of SRB production for such following month. Golden Ridge shall
          fill all forecast SRB Orders to the maximum extent that Golden Ridge (directly or through its affiliates) is able to produce or supply the SRB and shall increase production to supply any unfulfilled orders as soon as reasonably possible.
        Golden Ridge also shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide RBT’s requirements for all SRB Orders that are not included in an RBT forecast.

     

    
      1

      
        

    

    

    

    1.2.        Priority Allocation. Without in any manner limiting the Golden Ridge’s obligations to satisfy the Minimum Supply Quantity Requirements hereunder, RBT shall have priority rights for the purchase of all SRB that Golden Ridge
        has available for sale and in the event that Golden Ridge has insufficient quantities to fulfill all of its customer orders it shall first fill RBT’s SRB Orders.

    

    

    1.3.       Storage of SRB. Following production and prior to delivery to RBT, Golden Ridge shall store all SRB in accordance with the Specifications, free from contamination and unadulterated, and in compliance with such other reasonable storage specifications as shall be provided by RBT from time to time during the term of this
        Agreement to avoid degradation or contamination of the SRB. A copy of the storage specifications currently in effect is attached as Exhibit A. RBT shall pay no additional
        amounts for such storage.

    

    

    1.4.        Delivery and Risk of Loss. All SRB sold to RBT pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered F.O.B. the Facility. RBT shall arrange for all shipments and will be solely responsible for all costs and risks associated with
        transporting the SRB. Golden Ridge will cooperate with RBT to coordinate transportation and logistics. Title to and risk of loss with respect to the SRB Orders shall pass from
        Golden Ridge to RBT at the time that the shipper or carrier designated by RBT receives possession of the SRB at the Facility. RBT may reject and shall have no obligation to pay for any SRB not complying with the requirements of this Agreement, and if no other option reasonably acceptable to RBT is provided by Golden Ridge may return the non-conforming SRB
          to Golden Ridge at Golden Ridge’s sole cost and expense.

    

    

    1.5.        Labelling and Identification; Good Agricultural Practices.. Golden Ridge will deliver the ordered SRB, properly labeled and in hopper trailers as approved in advance by RBT. Golden Ridge shall maintain and provide to RBT on request records of each batch and lot of the SRB, including, without limitation, the date of
        production and lot numbers. The lot numbers and production date also must be identified on the bill of lading. Golden Ridge will implement and maintain a Good Agricultural
        Practices program as adopted by the United States Department of Agriculture and United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) (https://www.ams.usda.gov/services/auditing/gapghp) in regard to how farmers grow and store the rice that Golden Ridge purchases.

    

    

    1.6.        Rescheduling. RBT may reschedule or postpone a delivery at any time, provided that written notice of such rescheduling or postponement is delivered to Golden Ridge not later than fifteen (15) days prior to the requested
        delivery date, and provided that all SRB ordered will be shipped no later than the final day of the current Contract Year.

    1.7.        Inconsistent Provisions. All purchases of SRB by RBT from Golden Ridge during the term of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and nothing contained in any purchase order, order
        confirmation, invoice or other document shall in any way modify or add any terms and conditions to such purchases. The terms hereof shall supersede any contrary terms or conditions set forth in any purchase order, order confirmation, invoice or
        other document.

    

    

    2.          Failure to Comply with Minimum Purchase or Supply Requirements. If RBT fails to purchase the Minimum Purchase Quantity other than due to a breach of this Agreement by Golden Ridge, Golden Ridge shall use its reasonable best
        efforts to sell the excess SRB to a third party, and RBT will be responsible to pay Golden Ridge the difference between the price received by Golden Ridge for such sales and the agreed price per the terms of this Agreement, if less than the price
        payable hereunder. If Golden Ridge fails to supply the Minimum Supply Quantity of SRB that complies with the Specifications, other than due to a breach of this Agreement by RBT, RBT shall use its reasonable best efforts to purchase the difference
        between the quantity supplied by Golden Ridge and the Minimum Supply Quantity, and Golden Ridge shall pay RBT the difference between the amount paid by RBT for such SRB and the agreed price per the terms of this Agreement, if more than the price
        payable hereunder. Golden Ridge will maintain its SRB operation in a way that minimizes long-term reductions in output, including a preventative maintenance program.

    

    

    3.           Forecasts and Notices Regarding Supply and Purchase.

    

    

    3.1.        Forecasts and Logistics Planning. On or before the first (1st) day of each month during the term of this Agreement, (i) Golden Ridge shall, in good faith, prepare and provide to RBT a non-binding ninety (90)-day forecast of
        Golden Ridge’s SRB production for the ninety (90)-day period beginning on the first (1st) day of the following month, and (ii) RBT shall, in good faith, prepare and provide to Golden Ridge a summary of RBT’s logistics planning for the
        delivery of the Golden Ridge SRB to RBT for the ninety (90)-day period beginning on the first (1st) day of the following month. Golden Ridge shall notify RBT no less than weekly of Golden Ridge’s anticipated production that will be
        available for delivery by week for each week of the following month; and RBT shall notify Golden Ridge of the actual SRB quantity RBT expects to acquire during each week of the next month.

    

    

    3.2.       Notices Regarding Certain Events. If a Party determines that any estimated amounts provided pursuant to Section 3.1 are not materially correct,
        it promptly shall notify the other Party of the revised quantities. Golden Ridge will provide RBT at least forty-five (45)-day’s advance notice of all brown rice runs and of scheduled
          production termination for maintenance. Golden Ridge will provide immediate same-day notice to RBT for unscheduled production termination and ongoing reports regarding the anticipated period and nature of any termination until production resumes.
          Such notice may be by email and shall be to RBT’s Vice President of Operations (Robert De Paul) and the Production and Logistics Planner (Sergio Arrieta) or to their successors..

    

    

    4.          Specifications and Warranties. Golden Ridge warrants to RBT that all SRB supplied hereunder shall be produced in accordance with all applicable laws and shall:
          (i) be derived from the harvest for the current crop year, except as reasonably approved by RBT, and from rice grown in Arkansas; and (ii) be merchantable, unadulterated, free

        to use any such information (or permit the use thereof by any of its employees) except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, whether for its own benefit or to the detriment of the other, and not to disclose or to permit the disclosure of any
        such information by any person or entity under its control or influence, except to the extent that any such disclosure is required by law or by legal process, and then only after giving the other party reasonable advance notice of and an

    10.          Right of First Refusal and Option to Purchase.

    

    

    10.1.     Right of First Refusal. If (i) any third party or group of affiliated parties offers or proposes an Acquisition Transaction and Golden Ridge is willing to sell on such terms or determines to pursue the proposal (a “Qualifying Offer”), (ii) Golden Ridge determines to initiate or seek offers to complete an Acquisition Transaction, or (iii) Golden Ridge deems it necessary to
        discontinue operations, prior to proceeding with any such transaction Golden Ridge agrees to promptly notify RBT in writing of the material terms and conditions of the Qualifying Offer or proposed transaction (“Notice”). RBT shall have the right, for a period of thirty (30) days thereafter (“Election Period”)
        to pursue the transaction as set forth in the Notice regarding the Qualifying Offer or to complete an Acquisition Transaction as identified in such Notice by agreeing in writing and in principle to all terms and conditions set forth in the Notice;
        provided, however, that RBT may subject such agreement to reasonable satisfaction with due diligence and mutual agreement to other customary terms and conditions to such a transaction (“RBT ROFR”). Thereafter, RBT and Golden Ridge must use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the transaction on a timely basis, but no less than ninety (90) days, in accordance with the terms set forth in the
        Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if RBT exercises the RBT ROFR, Golden Ridge agrees that it will negotiate in good faith exclusively with RBT to complete a mutually satisfactory transaction for a period of at least ninety (90) days. If Golden
        Ridge does not receive the written election of the RBT ROFR within the Election Period, or if RBT fails to complete the transaction in a timely manner and in accordance with the terms of the Notice, and after the ninety (90) day exclusivity period,
        RBT’s rights pursuant to this Section 10 shall immediately terminate and Golden Ridge shall be entitled, at its discretion and for a period of ninety (90) days
        thereafter, to complete the proposed transaction, in the event of a Qualifying Offer with such original third party, or if not a Qualifying Offer, with any other party on terms and conditions that are no less favorable to any other third party than
        were offered to RBT in the Notice. If Golden Ridge does not complete the transaction within such ninety (90) day period, it must again grant RBT the rights in full under this Section to proceed with an Acquisition Transaction in accordance herewith
        before completing any such transaction. Golden Ridge agrees that it will not enter into any agreement with any other party that will restrict it or prohibit it from complying with the terms of this Section 10. Without prejudice to the rights and remedies otherwise available, RBT shall be entitled to equitable relief by way of injunction or otherwise if Golden Ridge or any of its Affiliates or representatives

        The burden of proof of due delivery under this paragraph shall be upon the Party giving notice.

    

    

    11.8.      Severability. In case any provision of this Agreement shall be declared invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed stricken from this Agreement as to that jurisdiction only, and
        the validity, legality and enforceability of this Agreement or of any of its provisions in such jurisdiction or in any other jurisdiction shall not otherwise be affected.

    

    

    11.9.      Titles and Headings. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in interpreting or construing this Agreement.

    

    

    11.10.    Expenses. Except as expressly otherwise set forth herein, each Party shall bear its own attorneys’ and other professional and business advisors’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation,
        execution and performance of this Agreement. In the event that any Party brings any action (whether any arbitration proceeding or otherwise) to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover
        reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs from the other Party.

    

    

    11.11.  Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the attached and referenced documents constitute the entire agreement between the Parties regarding the subject matter, all oral agreements being merged herein and therein, and supersede

    11.12.    Publicity. The Parties agree that upon signing of this Agreement and upon initiation of production of SRB under this Agreement, each Party may issue a press release approved by the other Party (such approval not to be
        unreasonably withheld) disclosing the existence and general structure of, but not the economic terms of this Agreement. Other than the issuance of such general press releases, neither Party may make any other public announcement regarding this
        Agreement or the subject matter or economic terms contained herein without the prior written consent of the other Party, except as may be required by applicable law or pursuant to requirements of an applicable court proceeding, in which event, the
        disclosing Party shall endeavor to give the non-disclosing Party prompt notice in order to allow the non-disclosing Party the opportunity to seek a protective order.

    

    

    11.13.    Binding Arbitration. All disputes or claims arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement or the breach, termination or invalidity thereof or of any provision herein shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration
        conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. In accordance with Section 12.2, the fees of the arbitrator and the other reasonable and
        documented costs of the prevailing Party in any arbitration pursuant to this Section, including reasonable attorneys' fees, shall be borne by the non-prevailing Party or Parties, unless otherwise determined by the arbitrator. The arbitration shall
        take place in Arkansas and shall be conducted in English. The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the Parties, the Parties hereby waiving any right of review or appeal thereof. The award may be presented by either Party for
        enforcement in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties hereby consent to the jurisdiction of such court solely for purposes of enforcement of this arbitration provision and any award rendered hereunder. In any such enforcement action
        neither Party will seek to invalidate or modify the decision of the arbitrator or otherwise to invalidate or circumvent the procedures set forth in this Section as the sole and exclusive means of settling or resolving such dispute. Notwithstanding
        the foregoing, nothing in this Section shall prevent a Party from seeking temporary or permanent injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction. Likewise the Parties hereby authorize the arbitrator to grant interim relief, including but
        not limited to any interim relief which a court has the power to grant.

    

    

    11.14.   Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts entered into and to be performed entirely within Delaware, and shall be given a
        fair and reasonable construction in accordance with the intent of the parties.

    

    

    11.15.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

     

    
      13

      
        

    

    

    

    12.          Remedies and Attorneys’ Fees.

    

    

    12.1.      Seller’s Remedies. Except to the extent of the amount of any purchase price actually paid by RBT for such SRB, Seller’s damages for wrongful rejection, wrongful failure to properly revoke acceptance, wrongful non-acceptance
        of SRB or repudiation of the SRB shall be the difference in the market price at the time and place for the tender of SRB and the contract price, whichever is greater.

    

    

    12.2.      Attorneys' Fees. If the services of an attorney are required to secure the performance of this Agreement or otherwise upon the breach or default of this Agreement, or if any judicial remedy or arbitration is necessary to
        enforce or interpret any provision of this Agreement or the rights and duties of any person in relation thereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees, costs, expert witness fees, accountant and consultant fees and
        other expenses, in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled.

        purchase of SRB. Such credited amounts shall be applied first to accrued, but unpaid interest, then to any unpaid amounts other than principal, and finally to principal. All such credited payments shall be evidenced by a statement prepared by RBT
        that, absent manifest error, shall be binding on Maker; provided, that the failure to attach or any inaccuracy in such schedule shall not impair the right of the Company
        to collect any amounts due hereunder. Any remaining unpaid Note balance shall be all due and payable in full on or before December 29, 2019.

    

    

    2.          Application of Payments; Schedule of Loaned Funds and Payments. Any prepayment of this Note shall be applied first to accrued, but unpaid interest, then to any unpaid amounts other than principal, and finally to principal.
        Any cash amounts paid by or on behalf of the Maker shall be made in immediately available funds to the Company at its designated office as provided above.

    

    

    3.            Unsecured. This Note is unsecured.

    

    

    4.        Waivers. Maker expressly agrees that this Note or any payment hereunder may be extended by the Company from time to time without in any way affecting the liability of Maker. No waiver by the Company shall be binding unless
        executed in writing by the Company. The Maker hereby irrevocably (i) waives diligence, presentment and demand for payment, protest, notice, notice of protest and nonpayment, dishonor and notice of dishonor and all other demand or notices of any and
        every kind whatsoever; (ii) agrees that this Note and any or all payments coming due hereunder may be extended from time to time in the sole discretion of Company without in any way affecting or diminishing the Maker’s liabilities hereunder; and
        (iii) agrees that Company may, at its option, postpone the time of payment or grant any other waiver of the terms or conditions of this Note, but no such waiver shall affect or impair the rights of the Company to require observance, performance, or
        satisfaction, either of that term or condition as it applies on a subsequent occasion or of any other term or condition of this Note, including without limitation, any substitution, exchange or release of collateral, and any addition or release of
        any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable.

    (b) The Maker shall provide the Company notice promptly (and in any event within five (5) days after obtaining actual knowledge) of any
        Event of Default.

    

    

    7.          Representations and Warranties. The Maker represents and warrants that (i) the Marker is organized and resident in the State of Arkansas; (i) the Maker is duly organized and in good standing under the laws of Arkansas and
        has full capacity and right to make and perform this Note, and all necessary authority has been obtained; (iii) this Note constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms; (iv) the making, existence, and
        performance of this Note does not and will not violate the provisions of any applicable law, regulation or order, and does not and will not result in the breach of, or constitute a default or require any consent under, any material agreement,
        instrument, or document to which the Maker is a party or by which the Maker or any of the Maker’s property may be bound or affected; and (v) all consents, approvals, licenses and authorizations of, and filings and registrations with, any

    (a)          The institution against the Maker or any endorser or
        guarantor of this Note of any involuntary proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency or other similar law affecting the rights of creditors generally, which
        proceeding is not dismissed within thirty (30) days of filing;

    

    

    (b)          The institution by the Maker or any endorser or
        guarantor of this Note of any voluntary proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency or other similar law affecting the rights of creditors generally or the

    (c)        Default or breach by the Maker of any of the Maker’s
        obligations or covenants under this Note, the Supply Agreement or any related agreements or instruments entered into with or on behalf of the Company, or any other agreement between the Maker (or any of the Maker’s affiliates) and the Company or
        any of its affiliates, or the occurrence of any event of default under any promissory note of the Maker (or any of the Maker’s affiliates) in favor of the Company or any of its affiliates;

     

    
      21

      
        

    

    

    

    (d)         The failure to make any payment hereunder or under
        any other obligation to Maker or its affiliates, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, within five (5) days of when due;

    

    

    (e)         Any financial statement or certificate furnished to
        the Company in connection with, or any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of the Maker or any endorser or guarantor under shall prove to be incorrect, false or misleading in any material respect when furnished or made; or

    

    

    (f)        The Maker or any endorser or guarantor (whether as
        primary obligor or as guarantor or other surety) shall fail to pay any principal of or premium or interest on any debt in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) when and as the same shall become due and payable (whether at scheduled maturity,
        required prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise), and such failure shall continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument evidencing such debt.

    

    

    Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default: (i) all obligations of the Maker shall at the holder of this Note’s option and without
        notice become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, notice of nonperformance, notice of protest, protest, notice of dishonor or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Maker; and (ii) the holder
        of this Note shall have all rights, powers and remedies available under this Note, and as otherwise accorded by law, including without limitation the right to resort to any or all guaranties and collateral; provided that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of Event of Default above, the principal then outstanding, together with accrued interest
        thereon, and all fees and other obligations under this Note shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, notice of nonperformance, notice of protest, protest, notice of dishonor or other notice of any kind, all of which
        are hereby waived. All rights, powers and remedies of the holder may be exercised at any time by the holder and from time to time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, are cumulative and not exclusive, and shall be in addition to any other

        whichever is lower. Such interest on overdue amounts under this Note shall be payable on demand and shall accrue and be compounded monthly until the obligation of the Maker with respect to the payment of such interest has been discharged (whether
        before or after judgment). In no event shall any interest charged, collected or reserved under this Note exceed the maximum rate then permitted by applicable law and if any such payment is paid by the Maker, then such excess sum shall be credited
        by the holder as a payment of principal.

    

    

    10.          No Offset. Except as expressly permitted herein, all payments by the Maker under this Note shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be free and clear and without any deduction or withholding for any taxes or
        fees of any nature whatever, unless the obligation to make such deduction or withholding is imposed by law. The Maker shall pay and save the holder harmless from all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to make any
        such deduction or withholding required by law.

        Section). Any party from time to time may change its address or other information for the purpose of notices to that party by giving written notice specifying such change to the other parties hereto.

        agree that such invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Note, and further agree to substitute for the invalid provision a valid provision which most closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the
        invalid provision; provided that no such severability shall be effective if it materially changes the economic benefit of this Note.

    

    

    15.          Time. Time is of the essence of this Note and each of the provisions hereof.

    

    

    16.         Usury. In the event any interest is paid on this Note which is deemed to be in excess of the then legal maximum rate, then that portion of the interest payment

    FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Golden Ridge Rice Mills,
        LLC, an Arkansas limited liability company with principal offices at 1784 Highway 1 North, Wynne Arkansas 72396 (“Maker”), promises to pay to RiceBran
        Technologies, a California corporation with principal offices at 1330 Lake Robbins Drive, Suite 250, The Woodlands, Texas 77380 (“RBT”), or order (as
        applicable “Company”), at the offices of the Company or at such other place as any subsequent holder of this Promissory Note (this “Note”) may designate, the principal sum of One Hundred and Sixty-Five Thousand Dollars ($165,000.00), with interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from time to time
        outstanding at the fixed rate of six percent (6%) as set forth below until the unpaid principal amount is paid in full.

    

    

    20.         Principal and Interest Payments. The principal and accrued interest shall be payable as follows: a Ten Dollar ($10.00) per ton credit shall be applied by RBT for each ton of stabilized rice bran (“SRB”) purchased by RBT from Maker pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Rice Bran Supply and Production Agreement between RBT and Maker dated this same date (“Supply Agreement”). This credit shall reduce the amounts otherwise payable by RBT or its designee under the terms of the Supply Agreement for the purchase of SRB.
        Such credited amounts shall be applied first to accrued, but unpaid interest, then to any unpaid amounts other than principal, and finally to principal. All such credited payments shall be evidenced by a statement prepared by RBT that, absent
        manifest error, shall be binding on Maker; provided, that the failure to attach or any inaccuracy in such schedule shall not impair the right of the Company to collect
        any amounts due hereunder. Any remaining unpaid Note balance shall be all due and payable in full on or before December 29, 2019.

    

    

    21.         Application of Payments; Schedule of Loaned Funds and Payments. Any prepayment of this Note shall be applied first to accrued, but unpaid interest, then to any unpaid amounts other than principal, and finally to principal.
        Any cash amounts paid by or on behalf of the Maker shall be made in immediately available funds to the Company at its designated office as provided above.

    

    

    22.         Unsecured. This Note is an unsecured.

    

    

    23.       Waivers. Maker expressly agrees that this Note or any payment hereunder may be extended by the Company from time to time without in any way affecting the liability of Maker. No waiver by the Company shall be binding unless
        executed in writing by the Company. The Maker hereby irrevocably (i) waives diligence, presentment and demand for payment, protest, notice, notice of protest and nonpayment, dishonor and notice of dishonor and all other demand or notices of any and
        every kind whatsoever; (ii) agrees that this Note and any or all payments coming due hereunder may be extended from time to time in the sole discretion of Company without in any way affecting or diminishing the Maker’s liabilities hereunder; and
        (iii) agrees that Company may, at its option, postpone the time of payment or grant any other waiver of the terms or conditions of this Note, but no such waiver shall affect or impair the rights of the Company to require observance, performance, or
        satisfaction, either of that term or condition as it applies on a subsequent occasion or of any other term or condition of this Note, including without limitation, any substitution, exchange or release of collateral, and any addition or release of
        any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable.

     

    
      26

        Maker’s annual financial statements within forty-five (45) days after the end of each year, and (ii) monthly financial statements within ten (10) business days following the end of each calendar month. An authorized and appropriate representative
        of Maker will be available periodically to meet with the Company as reasonably requested by Company (or to hold a teleconference with the Company) to explain and discuss the Maker’s financial condition and results of operation; and

    

    

    (b)       The Maker shall provide the Company notice promptly
        (and in any event within five (5) days after obtaining actual knowledge) of any Event of Default.

    

    

    24.         Representations and Warranties. The Maker represents and warrants that (i) the Marker is organized and resident in the State of Arkansas; (i) the Maker is duly organized and in good standing under the laws of
        Arkansas and has full capacity and right to make and perform this Note, and all necessary authority has been obtained; (iii) this Note constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms; (iv) the making,
        existence, and performance of this Note does not and will not violate the provisions of any applicable law, regulation or order, and does not and will not result in the breach of, or constitute a default or require any consent under, any material

        proceeding is not dismissed within thirty (30) days of filing;

        any of its affiliates, or the occurrence of any event of default under any promissory note of the Maker (or any of the Maker’s affiliates) in favor of the Company or any of its affiliates;

     

    
      27

      
        

    

    

    

    (j)          The failure to make any payment hereunder or under
        any other obligation to Maker or its affiliates, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, within five (5) days of when due;

    

    

    (k)         Any financial statement or certificate furnished to
        the Company in connection with, or any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of the Maker or any endorser or guarantor under shall prove to be incorrect, false or misleading in any material respect when furnished or made; or

    

    

    (l)        The Maker or any endorser or guarantor (whether as
        primary obligor or as guarantor or other surety) shall fail to pay any principal of or premium or interest on any debt in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) when and as the same shall become due and payable (whether at scheduled maturity,
        required prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise), and such failure shall continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument evidencing such debt.

    

    

    Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default: (i) all obligations of the Maker shall at the holder of this Note’s option and without
        notice become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, notice of nonperformance, notice of protest, protest, notice of dishonor or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Maker; and (ii) the holder
        of this Note shall have all rights, powers and remedies available under this Note, and as otherwise accorded by law, including without limitation the right to resort to any or all guaranties and collateral; provided that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of Event of Default above, the principal then outstanding, together with accrued interest

        by the holder as a payment of principal.

    

    

    27.          No Offset. Except as expressly permitted herein, all payments by the Maker under this Note shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be free and clear and without any deduction or withholding for any taxes or

    3.3.        Adjustments for Net Working Capital.

    

    

    (a)       Pre-Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment. Seller shall
        cause to be delivered to Buyer at least three (3) days prior to the Closing (i) an estimated statement of the Net Working Capital (“Estimated Net Working Capital
          Statement”) and (B) a certificate as to the preparation of the Estimated Net Working Capital Statement executed by the Chief Financial Officer of Seller. The Estimated Net Working Capital Statement shall be prepared in good faith in
        conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles as in effect on the date hereof, consistently applied (“GAAP”) on a basis consistent
        with the methods used in computing Net Working Capital set forth on Schedule 3.3(a). If the Estimated Net Working Capital is less than Two Hundred and
        Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) or more than Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000) (such range the “Target Net Working Capital”), the Parties shall make
        the adjustments as outlined in Section 3.3(b).

    

    

    (b)        Post-Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment. Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing Date, Buyer will prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement (“Closing Report”) setting forth a calculation in reasonable detail of the Net Working Capital. Buyer and Seller shall work together in good faith for a period of sixty (60) days after the delivery of the
        Closing Report (“Review Period”) to resolve any disputes concerning the Closing Report. If Seller and Buyer fail to resolve all such matters in dispute within
        the Review Period, then within fifteen (15) days of the expiration of the Review Period, Seller and Buyer shall jointly select an independent mediator pursuant to Section 11.17(a).
        If Seller fails to notify Buyer of any disputes within the Review Period, the Closing Report (including the calculation of Net Working Capital) will be conclusive and binding on the Parties upon the expiration of the Review Period. If Seller
        notifies Buyer of agreement with any items in the calculation of Net Working Capital, such calculation will be conclusive and binding on the Parties immediately upon such notice. The Closing Report and the calculation of Net Working Capital, as
        finally determined pursuant hereto, will constitute the “Final Closing Report” and “Final Net Working Capital,” respectively, for purposes of this Agreement. The date on which the Final Closing Report is finally determined in accordance herewith, is referred to as the “Determination Date.” If, after final determination of the Final
          Closing Report pursuant hereto, the Final Net Working Capital is greater than the lower of (i) the Target Net Working Capital and (ii) the Estimated Net Working Capital, then Buyer shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Determination Date, make payment of such difference by wire transfer in immediately available funds to Seller. If, after final determination of the Final Closing Report pursuant to this Section 3.3(b) and, if applicable, Section 11.17, the Final Net Working Capital is less than the lower of (x) the Target
          Net Working Capital and (y) the Estimated Net Working Capital, then Seller Parties, jointly and severally, agree to immediately deliver such difference to Buyer.

    

    

    (c)         Definitions of Net Working Capital, Current Assets and Current Liabilities. As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below: “Net Working Capital” means, as of the close of business on the date prior to the Closing Date, (i) the Current Assets less (ii) the Current Liabilities; provided that “Net Working Capital” shall be calculated consistently with the methods used in computing Net Working Capital set forth on Schedule 3.3(a). “Current Assets” means current assets included in the Assets (including cash, accounts and notes receivable of the Business (net of allowances for cash discounts, doubtful accounts, bad debts, chargebacks,
        customer rebates and sales returns) and prepaid expenses of the Business), in each case as determined in accordance with the methodologies and principles used in the preparation of the Financial Statements (as defined herein), to the extent
        consistent with GAAP. “Current Assets” shall exclude (x) receivables not collected within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date or not expected to be collected within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date and (y) receivables from related
        parties. “Current Liabilities” means current liabilities included in the Assumed Liabilities, including (A) all trade payables and amounts collected from
        customers of the Company for work or services not yet performed, and amounts payable to Tax authorities, benefit providers and other applicable recipients; (B) regarding any employees of the Business that Buyer, in its sole discretion, agrees to
        employ after the Closing, all accrued but unpaid payroll Taxes, workers’ compensation costs, benefits premiums, payroll costs and all other costs accrued but unpaid as of the Closing; and (C) deferred revenue, in each case as determined in
        accordance with the methodologies and principles used in the preparation of the Financial Statements, to the extent consistent with GAAP. “Current Liabilities” shall exclude payables to related parties, other than office lease amounts in the normal
        course of business.

     

    
      7

      
        

    

    3.4.       Allocation of Purchase Price. No later than five (5) days prior to the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall mutually agree on the allocation of the sum of the Purchase Price (inclusive of the Assumed Liabilities) among the
        Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign law, as appropriate) and all Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. Any subsequent adjustments to the sum of the Purchase Price and Assumed
        Liabilities shall be reflected by Buyer and Seller in the allocation hereunder in a manner consistent with Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations thereunder. For all Tax Returns and reports (including IRS Form 8594), the Parties agree to
        report the transactions contemplated in this Agreement in a manner consistent with the allocation of the Purchase Price as agreed to by Buyer and Seller, and that none of them will take any position inconsistent therewith in any Tax Return
        (including any refund claim), except as otherwise required by a “determination” as defined in Section 1313 of the Code. The Parties shall cooperate in connection with the preparation, execution and filing with the Internal Revenue Service of all
        necessary information returns required by Section 1060 of the Code relating to the allocation of the consideration for the Assets. As used herein, “Treasury
          Regulations” means the Treasury Regulations (including Temporary Regulations) promulgated by the United States Department of Treasury, and “Code”
        means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to the date hereof, or other applicable federal Tax statutes.

    

    

    4.          Closing. The consummation of the purchase and sale contemplated by this Agreement, and all related transactions (the “Closing”) shall
        take place at the office of Weintraub Tobin Chediak Coleman Grodin Law Corporation at 400 Capitol Mall, 11th Floor, Sacramento, California 95814, or at such other place as is mutually agreeable to the Parties, commencing at 9:00 a.m. Central Time

        mutually acceptable to Buyer and Seller. The date and time of the Closing are referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” At the Closing:

        that each such individual would reasonably be expected to obtain in the course of diligently performing its, his or her duties for the Business.

    

    

    5.1.       Power and Authority. Seller is a limited liability company, duly formed and existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Arkansas, with full power and authority to own and operate the Business. Seller has
        the power to enter into and perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Seller’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other agreements and instruments executed or to be executed by Seller in connection with or
        pursuant to this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all requisite action on the part of Seller Parties and no other proceedings on the part of Seller are necessary to
        authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or any ancillary agreement. This Agreement and all other agreements and instruments executed or to be executed by any Seller Parties in connection with or pursuant to this
        Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement constitute or will, when executed and delivered, constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Seller Parties and are enforceable against Seller Parties in
        accordance with their respective terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and subject to equitable principles.

    

    

    5.2.     Qualification. Seller is qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the ownership of the Assets or the operation of the Business by Seller as now being conducted makes such qualification

        Parties.

    

    

    5.5.        Absence of Conflicts and Consent Requirements. Except as set forth in Section
            5.5 of the Disclosure Schedules, Seller is not subject to and is not a party to any charter or bylaw, or mortgage, lien, lease, agreement, contract, instrument, law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree, or any other
        restriction of any kind or character that (i) adversely affects the Business, or financial condition of the Business or any of the Assets, (ii) would prevent consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or would be violated or breached in
        any material respect by consummation of such transactions, (iii) would prevent such Seller from complying with the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, (iv) would adversely affect the ability of Buyer to operate the Business and
        Assets after the Closing on substantially the same basis as theretofore operated by Seller or (v) would require the consent of any third party other than the Bank and the USDA to the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution, delivery and
        performance of this Agreement and the ancillary agreements to which Seller is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (w) result in a violation of any law or order to which Seller or any of the
        Assets is subject, (x) conflict with or result in a violation of any provision of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other charter or organizational documents of Seller, (y) conflict with, result in a breach of, constitute a default under,

        lien upon any of the Assets. No consent, waiver, approval, authorization, order, permit or license from, or registration, declaration or filing with, or notice to, any governmental authority is required by, or with respect to, Seller in connection
        with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any ancillary agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. No person has any power of attorney to act on behalf of Seller in connection with its properties or business
        affairs.

        to, secured by or outstanding against the Assets, except those items which will be paid and satisfied or otherwise provided for at Closing. The Assets shall be transferred to Buyer so that they vest in Buyer free and clear of all liens and
        encumbrances and adverse claims of every character. The Assets are all of the assets required for the operation of Seller’s Business, as it is presently conducted by Seller. No Assets have been disposed of other than by sales or use in the ordinary
        course of business, and they have not been materially damaged or rendered inoperable for their intended purposes. The tangible assets are in good operating condition and repair, free from any defects (except such minor defects as do not interfere
        with the use thereof in the conduct of the normal operations of the Business), have been maintained consistent with the standards generally followed in the industry and are sufficient to carry on the Business as conducted by Seller during the
        twelve (12) months preceding the Effective Date. The Accounts Receivable included in the Assets are bona fide in all respects, are owed by creditworthy customers in the ordinary course of business, are collectible, and are not subject to any
        offsets or defenses to payment. The Inventory is merchantable and fit for the purpose for which it was procured or manufactured. No portion of the Inventory is slow-moving, damaged, defective unusable, unsaleable or obsolete.

        true and complete copies of all such Assigned Contracts. Seller is not in default of any Assigned Contact, no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time would constitute a breach or default of an Assigned Contract and, to the Knowledge
        of Seller Parties, no other party to any such Assigned Contract is in default thereof. Seller has all requisite power and authority to assign to Buyer the rights of Seller under all such Assigned Contracts.

    

    

    5.8.        Proceedings and Liabilities. There are no court proceedings at law or in equity and no arbitrations or proceedings before any commission or administrative authority pending or to the Knowledge of Seller Parties threatened,
        or any orders or judgments in effect against or affecting Seller or Seller’s Business or the right to carry on Seller’s Business as conducted as of the date of this Agreement or affecting the Assets to be acquired hereunder except a claim by Roger
        Gilmore versus Golden Ridge Rice Mills LLC pending in the Circuit Court of Cross County, Arkansas, which alleges breach of contract. There are no orders, injunctions, awards, judgments or decrees outstanding against, affecting or relating to the
        Business or any of the Assets. Seller has no known liabilities for injury to any person or damage to property, no contingent liabilities and no liabilities not disclosed to Buyer.

    

    

    5.9.        Contracts. Seller is not obligated under any purchase or sales commitments (other than purchases of inventory in the normal course of business), guarantees or similar agreements or leases (either as a lessor or as a
        lessee), or under any collective bargaining agreements, employment contracts or pension or profit sharing agreements that might result in an obligation or liability of Buyer as a result of the purchase of the Assets contemplated herein, except as
        listed on Section 5.9 of the Disclosure Schedules. A list of all contracts material to the Business (“Material Contracts”) is included in Section 5.9 of the Disclosure Schedules. Such Material Contracts comprise all contracts or groups of
        related contracts the performance of which (i) involve consideration in excess of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) per year in the aggregate and cannot be canceled by Seller within thirty (30) days’ notice, (ii) materially restrict or prohibit the
        operations of the Business in any material manner or contain exclusive dealing or any similar exclusivity provisions or settlement provisions, (iii) contain price protection or “take or pay” provisions, or (iv) any other agreements that are
        otherwise material to the operation or future of the Business or establish rights or obligations material to the operation of the Business and are not generally available in the ordinary course of business at standard rates.

    5.10.     No Violation; Consents. Other than the items listed on Schedule
            5.10, Seller is not subject to and is not a party to any mortgage, lien, lease, agreement, contract, instrument, law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree, agreement, contract or instrument, or to the Seller Parties Knowledge
        any law, rule, regulation, or any other restriction of any kind or character, which (i) materially and adversely affects the Business, or financial condition of Seller or any of the Assets or property, or (ii) would prevent consummation of the
        transactions contemplated by this Agreement or would be violated or breached in any material respect by consummation of such transactions, or (iii) would prevent Seller from complying in any material respect with the terms, conditions and
        provisions of the Agreement, or (iv) would materially and adversely affect the ability of Buyer to operate Seller’s Business and Assets after the Closing on substantially the same basis as theretofore operated by Seller, or (v) would require the
        consent of any third party to the transactions contemplated herein.

    

    

    5.11.     Taxes. Seller has (i) timely filed and has paid all federal, state and local, income, payroll, withholding, excise, sales, use, personal property, use and occupancy, business and occupation, mercantile, real estate, capital
        and franchise or other returns or taxes (collectively “Taxes”) required to be filed or paid by Seller, (ii) timely paid all such Taxes required to be paid by
        it for which payment was due (whether or not reflected on any Tax return) and (iii) made all estimated Tax payments required to be made by it. There is no liability for Taxes in excess of the amounts paid or accruals or reserves established
        therefor. Buyer is not assuming any Tax liabilities arising with respect to Seller’s Business and Assets prior to the Closing. The federal and state income tax returns of Seller have not been audited by the Internal Revenue Service or any state Tax
        authorities and Seller has not received from the Internal Revenue Service or from the Tax authorities of any state, county, local or other jurisdiction any notice of underpayment of Taxes or other deficiency which has not been paid nor any
        objection to any return or report filed by Seller. There are outstanding no agreements or waivers extending the statutory period of limitations applicable to any Tax return or report. Seller is not delinquent in the payment of any Tax or in the
        filing of any Tax return, and no deficiencies for any Tax have been threatened, claimed, proposed or assessed against Seller. Seller has not consented to extend the time in which any amount of Taxes may be assessed or collected by any governmental
        authority, which extension is still outstanding. No claim has ever been made in writing by any governmental authority in a jurisdiction where Seller does not file Tax returns that Seller may be subject to taxation in that jurisdiction by reason of
        Seller’s conduct of the Business. The unpaid Taxes of Seller do not exceed the reserve for Tax liabilities set forth on the Financial Statements as adjusted for the passage time through the Closing Date in accordance with Seller’s past practices.

    

    

    5.12.      Compliance; FDA and Permits. To the best of Seller’s Parties’ Knowledge, Seller

        orders, ratings, and approvals of all federal, state, and local governmental bodies required to conduct the Business as presently conducted. There are no violations of any safety, food and drug, zoning, building, fire or health code or any other
        statute, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to the Business or all or any part of the Assets, and Seller Parties have no Knowledge of any such claim or assertion by a governmental authority. Without limiting the foregoing, Seller specifically
        represents and warrants that all of Seller’s products were produced in accordance with United States and other applicable laws, are merchantable, unadulterated, free from defects and fit and safe for human consumption, and comply with applicable food and feed laws,
        regulations, rules and orders, including without limitation those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) and the United States Department of
        Agriculture, and specifically, and without limitation, the Global Food Safety Initiative, and the Food Safety Modernization Act. Seller has, and at all times has had, all permits necessary to conduct the Business as presently conducted. All such
        permits are in full force and effect and no cancellation or suspension of any such permit is pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller Parties, threatened, and Seller has not received any written notice or, to the Knowledge of Seller Parties, other
        communication regarding any actual or alleged violation of or failure to comply with any term or requirement of any permit or any actual or threatened revocation, withdrawal, suspension, cancellation, termination or modification of any permit.

        Seller to Buyer (i) are consistent with the books and records of Seller, which books and records are true, correct and complete; and (ii) fairly and accurately present in all material respects the financial condition of the Business as of the dates
        indicated and the financial results of the Business for the periods then ended [and (iii) except as identified in Section 5.13 of the Disclosure Schedules, were prepared
        in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied with past practices. The books, records and accounts of Seller are true, complete and correct, have been maintained in accordance with good business practices on a basis consistent with past practices
        and accurately and fairly reflect the basis for the Financial Statements. Seller has established and maintains a system of internal accounting controls with respect to the Business sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that (w) transactions,
        receipts and expenditures of the Business are being executed and recorded timely, (x) transactions are recorded as necessary (A) to permit preparation of financial statements and (B) to maintain accountability for assets, (y) the amount recorded
        for assets on the books and records of Seller are compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences and (z) accounts, notes and other receivables and inventory are not recorded
        materially inaccurately, and proper and adequate procedures are implemented to effect the collection thereof on a current and timely basis. There has been no change in any accounting controls, policies, principles, methods or practices, including
        any change with respect to reserves (whether for bad debts, contingent Liabilities or otherwise), of Seller with respect to the Business.

    

    

    5.14.     Absence of Liabilities. Other than as disclosed on the Financial Statements and in as described in Section 5.8, Seller does not have any
        liabilities or obligations of any nature other than commercial liabilities and obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice and none of which has or will have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined below)
        on the business, financial condition or results of operation of Seller.

     

    
      14

      
        

    

    5.15.     Customer Deposits; Utilities. Schedule 2.1(b) contains a true, correct and complete list of all customer deposits and advance
        payments for products and services received by Seller prior to Closing. All utility bills currently due have been paid, and the costs for utility usage prior to Closing shall be paid at Closing. Seller shall take all action necessary in order for
        all utilities serving the Businesses to remain in service and available to Buyer at Closing.

    

    

    5.16.      Insurance. Seller has maintained and shall maintain casualty insurance in the amount of the full replacement value of the Assets. Such policies are in full force and effect and each (or a substantially equivalent
        replacement) will be maintained in full force and effect through Closing. Seller has maintained and will continue to maintain in force insurance coverage adequate to protect the Assets and the Business through the date of Closing.

    

    

    5.17.      Employees and Employee Benefit Plans.

    

    

    (a)        Employees and Layoffs. None of the Business employees are covered by a labor or trade union (whether registered or not under applicable laws) or collective bargaining agreement. Seller has delivered to Buyer a complete and
        accurate list of each Business employee and each contractor as of the date hereof (which list may be updated periodically by Seller to the extent necessary to reflect changes in the employment or engagement status of such Business employees and
        contractors (as applicable)). Seller has made available to Buyer an accurate list of (i) exempt or non-exempt employees; (ii) current base salary, wage rate or fees; and (iii) target bonus percentage or amount and sales commission target (if
        applicable) for the current year. Seller has taken no action that would constitute a “plant closing” or “mass layoff” within the meaning of the Worker
          Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, as amended, and similar foreign, state or local applicable laws (collectively “WARN Act”), issued any notification of a plant closing or mass
        layoff required by the WARN Act or similar foreign, state or local applicable law, or incurred any liability or obligation under the WARN Act or any similar foreign, state or local applicable law that remains unsatisfied. No terminations prior to
        the Closing would trigger any notice or other obligations under the WARN Act or similar foreign, state or local applicable law.

    

    

    (b)    Compliance with Employment Laws. To the best of Seller Parties’s Knowledge, Seller has complied with all applicable laws relating to employment,
        employment practices, wages, hours, mandatory insurance, and other benefits, leaves of absence, employee classification, immigration control, employee safety, bonuses and terms and conditions of employment, affirmative action, equal opportunity,
        plant closures and layoffs, workers’ compensation, unemployment insurance and labor relations, including laws relating to termination of employment and relating to job applicants and employee background checks. No action that arises out of the
        current, former or potential employment or service relationship between Seller and any Business employee is pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller Parties, has been threatened against Seller, other than a claim for unemployment insurance filed by
        Cindy Mitchell, copies of which claim Seller shall make available to Buyer prior to the Closing unless such claim is fully resolved prior to the Closing.

     

    
      15

      
        

    

    (c)       Benefit Plans. There exist no unfilled obligations to contribute or pay any expenses with respect to any employee benefit plan for any plan year or other fiscal period ending on or before Closing, and all obligations to
        contribute or pay any expenses with respect to any employee benefit plan for the plan year or other fiscal period containing the Closing have been paid or accrued by Seller; no loan from any employee benefit plan remains unpaid other than loans to
        participants made in the ordinary course of the operation of the plan, and no amount is due or owing from Seller or a subsidiary to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation under Title IV of ERISA for any reason, or to any “multiemployer plan” (as
        defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA) on account of any withdrawal therefrom and there are no negotiations, actions, suits or other claims, or overt written threats thereof, against any employee benefit plan. Seller is in compliance with the
        Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, (commonly referred to as “COBRA”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder in
        all material respects. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not (i) entitle any current or former employee of Seller to severance pay, or any other payment, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, (ii)
        accelerate the time of payment or vesting, or increase the amount of compensation due to any such employee or former employee or (iii) result in any prohibited transaction described in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code for which an
        exemption is not available.

    

    

    5.18.     Intellectual Property. To the best of Seller Parties’ Knowledge, Seller owns all right, title and interest in and to all trade names used in the
        Business, Seller’s logo, all assumed business names, trade names, trademarks, service marks and applications pertaining to the Business, free and clear of liens and has the right to use all such assets without payment to a third party. Section 5.18 of the Disclosure Schedules contains a complete and accurate list of all assigned intellectual property that is issued or registered or subject to application for
        issuance of registration. Seller owns or is licensed to use, free and clear of all liens, all rights in Seller’s interest in the intellectual property rights that are necessary for the operation of the Business. Any licenses not comprising
        off-the-shelf and commercially available software are identified on Section 5.18 of the Disclosure Schedules. No action is pending or has been threatened by Seller with
        respect to any intellectual property rights in connection with the operation of the Business, except for a claim against Cindy Mitchell et al. for transferring certain confidential information to Roger Gilmore. Roger Gilmore and Mindy Chezem are
        employees of Black River Commodities, LLC which is a competitor of the Business. To the best of Seller Parties’ Knowledge, the operation and conduct of the Business by Seller does not infringe, misappropriate, or dilute, and has not infringed,
        misappropriated, or diluted any intellectual property rights of any third party.

    

    

    5.19.      IT Systems and Privacy. To the best of Seller Parties’ Knowledge, Seller Parties have taken reasonable measures to preserve and maintain the performance and security of the communications networks, computer equipment, and
        related information and technology owned by Seller, and such systems are in good repair and operating condition. The systems have not suffered any loss of data or breaches that have resulted in (i) the unauthorized disclosure or loss of any
        personal information or (ii) a third party obtaining unauthorized access to any such personal information other than the alleged actions of Cindy Mitchell et al. for transferring certain confidential information to Roger Gilmore. Roger Gilmore and
        Mindy Chezem are employees of Black River Commodities, LLC which is a competitor of the Business. Seller has implemented commercially reasonable backup, security and disaster recovery procedures for protection of personal information. Seller’s
        privacy practices conform (and at all times have conformed) to applicable privacy, protection and/or data security laws and regulations. There is no pending action against Seller and Seller has not received any written inquiry or written complaint
        from a regulatory authority in any jurisdiction regarding any disclosure of personal information with respect to the Business.

     

    
      16

      
        

    

    5.20.      Absence of Changes since Financial Statements. Since the date of the latest Financial Statements provided to Buyer, Seller has operated the Business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices, and
        since such date there has not been any:

    

    

    (a)        Material Adverse Effect or any change, event,
        circumstance, condition or effect that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (as used herein, “Material Adverse Effect” means with respect to
          the Assets or the Business, any change, circumstance, event or effect that is or would reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, materially adverse to the assets, liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of
          operations of the Assets or the Business or the ability of Seller to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement);

        services to its customers in the ordinary course of business consistent with its past practices;

    

    

    (e)        Damage, destruction or loss of any material property

        business consistent with past practices;

    

    

    (f)       Making by Seller of any loan, advance or capital
        contribution to, or any investment in, any of its officers, directors or owners or any firm or business enterprise in which any such person had a direct or indirect material interest at the time of such loan, advance, capital contribution or
        investment, or change in the manner in which Seller extends discounts, credits or warranties to customers;

    

    

    (g)      Entering into, amendment of, termination or nonrenewal
        of any Material Contract, any default under any Material Contract (or other right or obligation), or any written or oral indication or assertion by the other party thereto of any material problems with its services or performance under such

        acquisition, sale or transfer of any material asset of Seller;

     

    
      17

      
        

    

    (h)      Entering into by Seller of any contract that by its
        terms requires or contemplates a current and/or future financial commitment, expense (inclusive of overhead expense) or obligation on its part that is not entered into in the ordinary course of its business consistent with past practices, or the
        conduct of any business or operations other than in the ordinary course of its business consistent with past practices;

    

    

    (i)       Any change in accounting methods or practices
        (including any change in depreciation or amortization policies or rates or revenue recognition policies) or any revaluation of any of any of Seller’s assets;

    

    

    (j)         Any deferral of the payment of any accounts payable
        other than in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices, or any discount, accommodation or other concession made other than in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices, in order to accelerate or induce
        the collection of any receivable; or

    

    

    (k)         Any negotiation by or entry into any contract to do

    5.21.      Brokerage. Seller Parties have not employed, and will not employ, any broker, finder, consultant or other intermediary in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement who might be entitled to a fee or
        commission in connection with such transactions.

    

    

    5.22.      Real Property and Environmental Matters.

    

    

    (a)         Conveyed Real Property. The Real Property shall be conveyed to Buyer by Grant Deed, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except those matters and things specified on Schedule 5.22(a) of the Disclosure Schedules. On the Closing Date, Buyer shall be provided with a standard coverage form of title insurance policy in the amount allocated to the Real Property,
        insuring that title thereto is vested in Buyer subject only to the exceptions above specified.

    

    

    (b)         Other Real Property. Other than the Real Property, Seller does not own any real property that is used in the Business and has not entered into any contract to purchase or been granted any option to purchase any real
        property for use in the Business. Section 5.22(b) of the Disclosure Schedules sets forth a complete list of all contracts, in each case as amended, modified and
        supplemented to date (each a “Lease”), pursuant to which Seller or any of its Affiliates leases, subleases, licenses or otherwise uses or occupies (whether as
        landlord, tenant, subtenant or pursuant to any other occupancy arrangement) any real property and interests in real property in the operation of the Business (“Leased
          Real Property”) and sets forth the address, landlord and tenant for each Lease. Seller has delivered to Buyer true and complete copies of the Leases, together with all amendments, modifications and supplements thereto. There are no
        licenses, subleases, occupancy or similar agreements to which Seller or any of its affiliates is a party as sub-landlord or licensor, relating to or affecting the Leased Real Property. There are no physical conditions or defects on any part of the
        Leased Real Property which would materially impair or would be reasonably expected to materially impair the continued operation of the Business as presently conducted at each such property.

     

    
      18

      
        

    

    (c)         Environmental Laws. Seller as of March 2015 is, and to its Knowledge has been, in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations promulgated by any governmental authority that prohibit, regulate or control any
        hazardous material or any hazardous material activity, including without limitation the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, the Resource Recovery and Conservation Act of 1976, the Federal Water Pollution
        Control Act, the Clean Air Act, the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, and the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Clean Water Act, as each of the foregoing are currently in effect (collectively “Environmental Laws”) and is in possession of, and in compliance with, all environmental permits needed to conduct the Business. Seller has not received from any governmental authority any notice of
        violation or alleged violation of any Environmental Law. As of the date hereof, no claim for losses under any Environmental Law is pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller Parties, threatened against Seller or any of its affiliates. Except for the
        above ground tank of diesel and grounded asphalt paving from the Arkansas Transportation Department which was crushed and used as base material for the plant, crushed concrete, rock and dirt used for fill, described on Schedule 5.22(c), there are no hazardous materials present in the soil or groundwater at, within, under or from any real property owned or occupied by Seller that requires
        investigation or remediation by Seller or any of its affiliates under applicable Environmental Laws. Neither Seller nor any of its affiliates have disposed or arranged for the disposal of any hazardous materials at any off-site location. Seller has
        not assumed any liability or any losses under any Environmental Law by contract or operation of law.

    

    

    5.23.     Related Party Transactions. Seller has not, and for purposes of any applicable law, never has been deemed to have: (i) acquired or have the use of property for proceeds greater than the fair market value thereof, (ii)
        received services or have the use of property for other consideration than the fair market value thereof, (iii) received or paid interest or any other amount other than at a fair market value rate, in each case from any of the Seller’s affiliates,
        officers, directors or key employees, (iv) disposed of property for proceeds less than the fair market value thereof or (v) performed services for other consideration than the fair market value thereof. To the Knowledge of Seller Parties, no
        affiliate of Seller, nor any immediate family member of an officer or director of Seller or any Member, has a direct ownership interest in any entity that competes with, or does business with, or has any contractual arrangement with, Seller. None
        of such affiliates or, to the Knowledge of Seller Parties, immediate family members thereof, is a party to, or is otherwise directly or indirectly interested in any contract with Seller.

    

    

    5.24.      Customers and Vendors. Section 5.24 of the Disclosure Schedules sets forth (i) a list of each of the top ten (10) existing customers ranked on
        the basis of total sales for the past twelve (12) months and such customer’s historical purchases for such twelve (12) month period, and (ii) a list of the top ten (10) vendors of Seller, ranked by expenditures with such vendors during the past
        twelve (12) months, and the expenditures for such vendor for such twelve (12) month period. Seller has made available to Buyer all contracts with the existing customers and existing vendors. Seller is not engaged in any dispute with any existing
        customer or vendor and, to the Knowledge of Seller Parties, no existing customer or vendor intends to terminate, limit or reduce its existing business relations with Seller.

     

    
      19

      
        

    

    5.25.     Seller Products. To the best of Seller Parties’ Knowledge, each of Seller’s products developed, manufactured, sold, licensed, leased or delivered by Seller (collectively, “Seller Products”) conforms and has been in conformity with all specifications for such Seller Products, all applicable contractual commitments and all applicable express and implied warranties and
        guarantees. Seller has no liability or obligation, and to the Knowledge of Seller Parties, there is no basis for any present or future action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand against Seller giving rise
        to any liability or obligation with respect to replacement or repair thereof or other damages in connection therewith, indemnification with respect thereto or other damages in connection therewith. In each case, the terms and conditions under which
        Seller has furnished Seller Products to any other person or entity include an express disclaimer of all implied and statutory warranties and guarantees, subject to applicable law.

    

    

    5.26.      No Omissions. To the best of Seller Parties’ Knowledge, no representation or warranty of Seller, nor any statement, certificate, schedule exhibit, list or other document furnished or to be furnished by or on behalf of
        Seller or pursuant hereto contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or will omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein not misleading under the circumstances. No investigation by or on
        behalf of Buyer or information revealed as a consequence thereof shall absolve Seller from any liability for any such untrue statement or omission.

    

    

    6.          Representations and Warranties by Buyer. Buyer makes the following representations and warranties, each of which shall be true and correct as of the Effective Date and the Closing Date:

    

    

    6.1.       Organization. Buyer is a corporation duly organized and formed and existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of California. Buyer has the power to enter into and perform its obligations pursuant to this
        Agreement. Buyer’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and all other agreements and instruments executed or to be executed by Buyer in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
        contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all requisite action on the part of Buyer. This Agreement and all other agreements and instruments executed or to be executed by Buyer in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement and
        the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement constitute or will, when executed and delivered, constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Buyer and are enforceable against Buyer in accordance with their respective
        terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights and to equitable principles.

    

    

    6.2.       Absence of Conflicts and Consent Requirements. Buyer is not subject to and is not a party to any charter or bylaw, or mortgage, lien,
        lease, agreement, contract, instrument, law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree, or any other restriction of any kind or character that would prevent consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or would be violated or breached in
        any material respects by consummation of such transactions. No consent, waiver, approval, authorization, order, permit or license from, or registration, declaration or filing with, or notice to, any governmental authority is required by, or with
        respect to, Buyer in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

     

    
      20

      
        

    

    7.           Additional Covenants.

    

    

    7.1.       Investigation of Business; Access to Properties and Records. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall give to Buyer and its legal counsel, accountants and other representatives full access during normal business hours to all of
        the Assets for inspection (including environmental inspection), and to the books, contracts, commitments and records of the Business, and shall permit them to consult with management employees of the Business to allow Buyer full opportunity to make
        such investigations as are necessary to analyze the affairs of the Business. In any on-site inspection by Buyer or its representatives of the Real Property, Buyer shall indemnify, save and hold Seller harmless from all claims asserted by Buyer, its
        agents, servants, employees and contractors and all other third parties for injuries to person or property arising out of or in any way connected with Buyer’s entry onto the Real Property for such inspection. Following the inspection, Buyer shall
        restore the property to substantially the condition that existed prior to Buyer’s entry thereon, if Buyer fails to purchase the Real Property. Buyer shall protect and safeguard all holes, excavations, stakes, ropes, lines and other devices placed
        by Buyer or its agents, servants, employees or contractors on or in the Real Property. Buyer shall not permit any liens to be attached to or affixed upon the Real Property as a result of any such inspection by Buyer or its agents, servants,
        employees or contractors. Notwithstanding any of the above provisions, nothing herein shall require Buyer to indemnify or hold Seller harmless with respect to, or repair, restore or remediate, any condition which is on, in or under the Real
        Property and not caused by Buyer, its agents, servants, employees or contractors.

    

    

    7.2.       All Reasonable Efforts. Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, Seller Parties and Buyer agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be
        done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as practicable the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to cooperate with the other in connection with the foregoing, including using all
        reasonable efforts: (i) to obtain all necessary waivers, consents, releases and approvals from other parties to the Assigned Contracts; (ii) to obtain all consents, approvals and authorizations that are required to be obtained under any applicable
        law or regulation; (iii) to lift or rescind any injunction or restraining order or other order adversely affecting the ability of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; (iv) to effect all necessary registrations and filings
        and submissions of information requested by governmental authorities; and (v) to fulfill all requirements of this Agreement.

    

    

    7.3.      Preservation of Business and Goodwill. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and except as otherwise contemplated hereby, Seller, from the date hereof through the Closing Date, shall (i) use all commercially
        reasonable efforts to preserve and keep the Assets and Business in good repair, working order, and condition, including its present operations, physical facilities, working conditions, and relationships with suppliers, customer and employees, and
        (ii) maintain proper business and accounting records and maintain existing insurance on its properties. Seller Parties shall notify Buyer of any event or transaction of which they become aware prior to Closing that could materially affect Buyer,
        Seller, the Assets or the Business in an adverse manner. Except as otherwise requested by Buyer, and without making any commitments on Buyer’s behalf, Seller
        shall use its commercially reasonable efforts in the normal course of business to keep available to Buyer the services of the employees of Seller, and to preserve for Buyer the goodwill of the customers of Seller and others having business
        relations with it. Seller shall not sell or otherwise transfer or assign any of the Assets prior to Closing without the prior written consent of Buyer. Seller shall conduct its business in the normal, usual manner, and will use its best efforts to
        preserve the Assets intact. In addition, Seller shall provide Buyer with a copy of its monthly financial statements promptly after the close of each month prior to Closing.

     

    
      21

      
        

    

    7.4.    Assignment of Contracts. To the extent the assignment of any contract, lease, commitment, or any asset to be assigned to Buyer pursuant to the provisions hereof requires the consent of any other person, this Agreement shall
        not constitute a contract to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or give rise to any right of acceleration or termination. To the best of Seller’s Knowledge, no consent by any other person or entity other
        than the Bank and USDA are required. Seller shall use all reasonable efforts to procure any required consent to assignment prior to Closing. If any such consent is not obtained, Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in any reasonable arrangement
        designed to provide Buyer the benefit of any such contract, agreement, commitment, or other asset, including enforcement of any and all rights of Seller against the other party thereto arising out of breach or cancellation thereof by such party or
        otherwise.

    

    

    7.5.       Employee
            Matters. Before the Closing, Seller (i) shall prepare a list of the names of all persons on the payroll of Seller and the amounts to be due on the Closing Date as are required to be paid to satisfy all compensation obligations to
        such employees as of the Closing Date, and (ii) will not, without Buyer’s prior written consent, enter into any agreement with its employees, increase the rate of compensation or bonus payable to or to become payable to any employee, or effect any
        changes in the management, personnel policies, or employee benefits, except in accordance with existing employment practices. As of the Closing Date, Seller shall (x) terminate all of its employees, and (y) be solely responsible for and shall pay
        to each person previously or currently employed by Seller (including all employees that have been or will be terminated by Seller) all wages, compensation, bonuses, deferred compensation, overtime, profit sharing benefits, workers’ compensation,
        sick pay, vacation, personal days and severance pay benefits accrued through and including the Closing Date. It is Buyer’s intention to hire Wayne Wilkison as provided herein and to offer to hire on the Closing Date, subject to Buyer’s standard
        screening process, a substantial portion of the other current active employees of Seller, except those employees on lay-off, leave of absence, long-term disability, and short-term disability, who shall remain the responsibility of Seller. Buyer is
        making no representation or warranty that Buyer will hire any employee of Seller. No such responsibility or obligation shall constitute an Assumed Liability in any way whatsoever. Any employee whose compensation is based upon commissions earned
        through the Closing Date shall be paid such commissions following the Closing Date as soon as is reasonably practicable following the calculation of such amounts. Seller shall retain all liabilities under any employee plans/agreements. Buyer is not
        assuming, and shall not have any responsibility whatsoever for the continuation of, or any liability under or in connection with any employee plans/agreements.

     

    
      22

      
        

    

    7.6.        Competition Provision. For a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date:

    

    

    (a)         Non-Compete. No Seller Party shall, directly or indirectly, engage, invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, advise, render services to,
        guarantee the obligations of, be employed by, be associated with, or in any manner be connected with any entity or person engaged in a business that is directly or indirectly competitive with the Business within two hundred (200) miles of the
        Facility; provided, however, that a Seller Party may acquire or otherwise own less than one percent (1%) of the outstanding capital stock of an entity that is listed on any national securities exchange other than the stock of Buyer;

    

    

    (b)          No Interference with Employees. No Seller Party shall, directly or indirectly: (i) cause, solicit, induce, or attempt to cause, solicit or induce any employee, agent, or independent contractor of Buyer to terminate such
        relationship with Buyer; (ii) in any way interfere with the relationship between Buyer and any of its employees, agents, or independent contractors; or (iii) at any given time, hire, retain, employ, or otherwise engage or attempt to hire, retain,
        employ, or otherwise engage as an employee, independent contractor, or otherwise, any entity or person who was an employee, agent, or independent contractor of Buyer within six (6) months preceding such time.

    

    

    (c)         No Interference with Vendors and Customers. No Seller Party shall, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, induce, or otherwise cause, or attempt to solicit, induce, or otherwise cause, any customer, supplier, licensor,
        licensee, or any prospective customer, supplier, licensor, or licensee that has been contacted or targeted for contact by Buyer or the Business on or before the Closing Date, or any other entity or person engaged in a business relationship with
        Buyer, to (A) terminate, curtail, or otherwise modify its relationship with Buyer or (B) engage in business with a competitor of Buyer, or (ii) interfere in any way with the relationship between Buyer, and any of its customers, suppliers,
        licensors, licensees, or any such prospective customers, suppliers, licensors, or licensees, or any other Person engaged in a business relationship with Buyer.

    

    

    (d)        No Disparagement. No Seller Parties shall make any disparaging statement, either orally or in writing, regarding Buyer, or the business, products, or
        services thereof, or any of its members, managers, directors, officers, employees, or agents.

    

    

    (e)       Reasonable Limitations. The Seller Parties agree that this Section 7.6, including the provisions relating to duration, geographical area, and
        scope, is reasonable and necessary to preserve the goodwill of the Business, protect and preserve Buyer’s legitimate business interests and the value of the Acquired Assets, and to prevent an unfair advantage from being conferred on Seller and
        Members, and that such provisions will not unreasonably restrict any Seller Party’s ability to earn a livelihood in the future.

    

    

    (f)       Severability. The Seller and the Seller Parties have each entered into this Agreement with the understanding, based on the advice of their respective attorneys that the provisions of this Section and all other Sections of
        this Agreement are enforceable in all respects and Buyer and Seller and Seller Parties intend that all provisions be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. Accordingly, if any provision of this Section 7.6 (or any other term in this Agreement) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical area, scope, activity, or subject, for any reason, such
        provision shall be reformed and modified, by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent allowed by applicable law. If, however, any such provision is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future
        law, and not subject to reformation, then (i) the portions of such provision that are illegal, invalid or unenforceable shall be fully severable, (ii) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such portions were never a part of this
        Agreement, and (iii) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provisions or by the severance.

     

    
      23

      
        

    

    (g)         Material Terms. The Seller Parties acknowledge that the covenants set forth in this Section 7.6 are essential and material terms of
        the transactions contemplated hereby and essential for the protection of Buyer and the goodwill purchased from Seller and that, but for the provisions of this Section 7.6,
        Buyer would not have entered into the transactions contemplated hereby at the Purchase price set forth herein, and instead would have done so at a substantially lower purchase price, or would not have done so at all.

    

    

    (h)          Remedies. The Seller Parties acknowledge that any breach of this Section 7.6 would result in serious and irreparable injury to Buyer, Buyer could
        not be adequately compensated by monetary damages alone, and Buyer’s remedy at law would not be adequate. Therefore, the Seller Parties acknowledge and agree that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by any of the Seller Parties, Buyer
        shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity to which Buyer may be entitled, to equitable relief against such of the Seller Parties, including temporary restraining orders and preliminary and permanent injunctions to
        restrain such of the Seller Parties from such breach or threatened breach and to compel compliance with the obligations of Seller Parties, and the Seller Parties waive the posting of a bond or undertaking as a condition to such relief. The terms of
        this Section shall not prevent Buyer from pursuing any other available remedies for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including but not limited to the recovery of damages from the Seller Parties.

    

    

    7.7.        Voting Agreement. Effective as of the Closing Date and continuing for a period of 18 (eighteen) months thereafter, Buyer and the Seller Parties shall enter into a Voting Agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit E (“Voting Agreement”) that shall provide for the
        restriction on the sale of the Closing Shares and Escrow Shares and shall require that all such shares be voted in favor of the election of those persons nominated by the Board of Directors of Buyer.

    

    

    7.8.       Confidentiality. Each of Seller Parties shall (i) treat and hold in strict confidence all technical, business, and other information of Seller and Buyer related to the operations of the Business or the Assets, whether or
        not in writing, which derives value, economic or otherwise, from being not generally known to the public or to any other entity or person that can obtain value from its disclosure or use (“Confidential Information”), (ii) refrain from using any of the Confidential Information except in connection with this Agreement and, as applicable, pursuant to the services provided to Buyer as a consultant or
        employee of Buyer or as needed to file Tax returns and (iii) deliver promptly to Buyer or destroy, at the request and option of Buyer, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information which are in any of their possession or
        control. In the event that Seller or a Member is asked or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any proceeding) to disclose any Confidential Information, such Party will notify Buyer promptly of the request or
        requirement so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 7.8.

     

    
      24

      
        

    

    7.9.       Transition Services. For a period of three (3) months after Closing (the “Transition Period”), Seller agrees to provide for Buyer, and
        Buyer agrees to engage Seller to provide certain transition services for the continuance of normal business operations during the Transition Period, as mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller at or prior to Closing (collectively, “Transition Services”). The Transition Services shall include, without limitation: (i) Wendy Wilkison’s and Terry Roberts’ being on site or available as needed by
        Buyer to assist with the transition of business operations to Buyer; (ii) Seller’s providing and allowing the use of certain items that are part of the Excluded Assets (including without limitation the John Deere Bobcat and two Nissan Forklifts, as
        listed in Schedule 1.1(h) hereto) for a rental amount of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500) per month; and (iii) Seller’s providing and allowing the use of the Intuit Software as listed in Schedule 1.1(h) hereto. With respect to item (iii)
        in the preceding sentence, Buyer shall pay all license and maintenance costs, if any, as are consistent with the amounts previously paid by such software’s licensee in the ordinary course of business.

    

    

    7.10.      Further Assurances; Litigation Support. Seller Parties and Buyer agree that at or after the Closing Date from time to time each of them will execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and transfer and take
        such other action as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of this Agreement. In the event and for so long as Buyer or Seller actively is contesting or defending against any proceeding, complaint, claim, or demand in
        connection with (i) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction on or prior to the
        Closing Date involving Seller, each of the other Parties will cooperate with the contesting or defending such Party and such Party’s counsel in the contest or defense, make available such Party’s personnel, and provide such testimony and access to
        such Party’s books and records as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the contest or defense, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending Party (except to the extent the contesting or defending Party is entitled to
        indemnification therefor hereunder).

        Buyer.

    

    

    9.         Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to Closing by (i) the mutual written consent of Seller and Buyer, or (ii) by either such Party if such Party shall have discovered a material error, misstatement, or

      26

      
        

    

    10.          Survival; Indemnity Obligations.

    

    

    10.1.    Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date; provided that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.1 (Power and Authority), Section 5.4 (Due Execution and Delivery), Section 5.5 (Absence of Conflicts and Consent Requirements), Section 5.6 (Title and Condition of Assets), Section 5.11 (Taxes), Section 5.21 (Brokerage) and Section 5.22(c) (Environmental Laws) shall survive until the date that is thirty (30) days

        other document referred to herein and every certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute a representation and warranty made pursuant hereto.

    

    

    10.2.   Indemnification by Seller Parties. Seller Parties, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify, defend, save and hold Buyer, and each of Buyer’s agents, employees, Affiliates, officers, and directors (each individually, “Buyer Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all damages, indebtedness, obligations, liabilities, losses, expenses, assessments, penalties, fines,
        judgments, awards, settlements, costs, fees, expenses or deficiencies of any nature whatsoever and whether accrued or fixed, known or unknown, absolute or contingent, matured or un-matured, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or determinable, on
        or off-balance sheet, and whether arising in the past, present or future (including and without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incident to any claim, demand, action, suit, arbitration, investigation or similar proceeding)
        (collectively, “Losses”) incurred, suffered or sustained by any Buyer Indemnitee which is caused by, resulting from or arising out of: (i) any breach of any
        representation or warranty of any of Seller Parties contained in Section 5 of this Agreement or in any certificate delivered by any Seller Parties hereunder; (ii) any
        breach of any covenant or agreement set forth herein by any Seller Parties or any non-fulfillment of any obligation of any of Seller Parties under this Agreement or any exhibit, schedule, certificate or any other document furnished in connection
        herewith; and (iii) any Excluded Liabilities or any Taxes of any of Seller Parties with respect to periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date. In the event that a Buyer Indemnitee has a claim for indemnification against the Seller Parties
        hereunder, the Buyer Indemnitee shall first proceed against any amount in the Escrow Account. If there is an insufficient amount available in the Escrow Account, taking into account all other claims against the Escrow and the amounts remaining in
        the Escrow Account, the Buyer Indemnitee may proceed against the Seller Parties.

    

    

    10.3.     Indemnification by Buyer. Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, save and hold Seller Parties harmless from and against any and all damages, indebtedness, obligations, liabilities, losses, expenses, assessments,
        penalties, fines, judgments, awards, settlements, costs, fees, expenses or deficiencies of any nature whatsoever and whether accrued or fixed, known or unknown, absolute or contingent, matured or un-matured, liquidated or unliquidated, (including
        and without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incident to any claim, demand, action, suit, arbitration, investigation or similar proceeding) incurred, suffered or sustained by any Seller Party which is caused by, resulting
        from or arising out of (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in Section 6 of this Agreement; (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement
        set forth herein by Buyer or any non-fulfillment of any obligation of Buyer under this Agreement or any exhibit, schedule, certificate or any other document furnished in connection herewith; and (iii) the Assumed Liabilities.

     

    
      27

      
        

    

    10.4.      Indemnification Procedures.

    

    

    (a)    Claims and Responses. A Party seeking indemnification hereunder (“Indemnitee”) will give prompt written notice (“Claim Notice”) to the Party from which indemnification is sought (“Indemnitor”)
        of any claim which it discovers or of which it receives notice after the Closing (including any claim or action brought by a third party) and which might give rise to a right of indemnification by it against Indemnitor under this Agreement (“Claim”), stating the nature, basis and (to the extent known) estimated amount thereof (the aggregate amount of such estimate, as it may be modified by such
        Indemnitee in good faith from time to time, “Claimed Amount”); provided that the failure to give prompt notice of such Claim shall not jeopardize any
        Indemnitee’s right to indemnification unless such failure shall have materially prejudiced the ability of Indemnitor to defend such Claim. During the thirty (30) day period commencing upon receipt by Indemnitor of a Claim Notice from Indemnitee (“Dispute Period”), Indemnitor may deliver to such Indemnitee a written response (“Response
          Notice”) in which Indemnitor (i) agrees that the full Claimed Amount is owed to Indemnitee, (ii) agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount is owed to Indemnitee or (iii) indicates that no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to
        Indemnitee. If the Response Notice is delivered in accordance with clauses (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Response Notice shall also contain a brief description of the facts and circumstances supporting the claim set forth in such
        Response Notice that only a portion or no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to Indemnitee, as the case may be. Any part of the Claimed Amount that is not agreed to be owed to Indemnitee pursuant to the applicable Response Notice (or the entire
        Claimed Amount, if such Response Notice asserts that no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to Indemnitee) is referred to herein as the “Contested Amount” (it
        being understood that the Contested Amount shall be modified from time to time to reflect any good faith modifications in accordance with this Agreement by Indemnitee to the Claimed Amount). If a Response Notice with respect to a Claim Notice is
        not received by Indemnitee prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period applicable to such Claim Notice, then Indemnitor shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that an amount equal to the full Claimed Amount set forth in such Claim Notice is
        owed to Indemnitee.

    

    

    (b)          Uncontested and Contested Amounts. If a Response Notice with respect to a Claim Notice agrees that the full Claimed Amount set forth in such Claim Notice is owed to Indemnitee, or if no Response Notice is received by
        Indemnitee from Indemnitor prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period applicable to such Claim Notice, then (i) the Parties shall cause the Escrow Agent to release a number of Escrow Shares equal in value to such Claimed Amount (which value
        shall be calculated in accordance with the share valuation terms of Section 3.2, but determined as of the date of release) to Indemnitee from the Escrow Account, to the
        extent of the then-outstanding balance of the Escrow Account, and (ii) subject to the limitations, terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, if the Escrow Account is insufficient to cover such Claimed Amount in full, then
        Indemnitor shall pay the shortfall amount in cash within three (3) Business Days following the earlier of the delivery of such Response Notice or the expiration of such Dispute Period the remaining amount due to such Indemnitee. If a Response
        Notice with respect to a Claim Notice delivered to Indemnitee during the Dispute Period applicable to such Claim Notice agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount set forth in such Claim Notice is owed to Indemnitee (“Agreed Amount”), then (i) the Parties shall cause the Escrow Agent to release a number of Escrow Shares equal in value to such Agreed Amount (which value shall be
        calculated in accordance with the share valuation terms of Section 3.2, but determined as of the date of release) to Indemnitee from the Escrow Account, to the extent of
        the then-outstanding balance of the Escrow Account, and (ii) subject to the limitations, terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, if the Escrow Account is insufficient to cover such Agreed Amount in full, then Indemnitor
        shall pay in cash within three (3) Business Days following the delivery of such Response Notice the remaining amount due to such Indemnitee. If a Response Notice with respect to a Claim Notice is delivered to Indemnitee during the Dispute Period
        applicable to such Claim Notice indicating that there is a Contested Amount, then Indemnitee and Indemnitor shall negotiate in good faith for a thirty (30) day period to resolve the dispute related to the Contested Amount. If Indemnitor and
        Indemnitee resolve such dispute, such resolution shall be binding on Indemnitor and Indemnitee, and a settlement agreement stipulating the amount owed to such Indemnitee (“Stipulated Amount”) shall be signed by Indemnitee and Indemnitor. Following the execution of such settlement agreement, the Parties shall cause the Escrow Agent to release the number of shares equal to the Stipulated Amount (which
        value shall be calculated in accordance with the share valuation terms of Section 3.2, but determined as of the date of release) to Indemnitee from the Escrow Account, to
        the extent of the then-outstanding balance of the Escrow Account. Subject to the limitations, terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, if the Escrow Account is insufficient to cover such Stipulated Amount in full, then
        Indemnitor shall pay in cash within three (3) Business Days following the execution of such settlement agreement (or such shorter period of time as may be set forth in such settlement agreement) the remaining amount due to such Indemnitee. In the
        event that there is a dispute relating to any Claim Notice or Contested Amount that cannot be settled in accordance herewith (including the time periods set forth therein), such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 11.17.

     

    
      28

      
        

    

    (c)          Escrow Releases. Except for the amount (“Retained Amount”) with respect to which Buyer shall have, prior to the Escrow expiration
        date, previously made a claim pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 10 and under the Escrow Agreement and for which the obligations to indemnify, if any,
        shall not have been previously satisfied from the Escrow Account (“Continuing Claim”), within forty five (45) days following the Escrow expiration date, Buyer
        shall provide a written statement in reasonable detail of all Claims to Seller, and Buyer shall direct the Escrow Agent to release to Seller the remaining shares comprising an
        amount in the aggregate equal to (i) the then-outstanding balance of the Escrow Account, minus (ii) the Retained Amount. As soon as the Continuing Claims are
        resolved pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 10, Buyer shall direct the Escrow Agent to release any associated Retained Amount held by the Escrow Agent
        pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement to Seller. All payments made from the Escrow Account or otherwise pursuant to this Section 10 shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, and each Party shall file all Tax returns in a manner consistent with the foregoing.

     

    
      29

      
        

    

    (d)        Defense of Third Party Claims. In the case of any Claim by any third party with respect to which Indemnitor may have liability for indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in the
        defense thereof after written notice from Indemnitor to Indemnitee of its election to assume such defense within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Claim Notice; provided that if Indemnitor is Seller, then such Indemnitor shall not have the right to
        defend or direct the defense of any such Claim by a third party that (i) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against Indemnitee, (ii) seeks an amount of losses that would reasonably be expected to exceed the amounts for which Indemnitor
        is obligated to indemnify, (iii) relates to or arises in connection with any criminal action or involves claims by any governmental authority or (iv) would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business or operations of
        Buyer if decided adversely to Buyer. Indemnitor’s assumption of such defense will be deemed to be an acknowledgment of Indemnitor’s obligation to indemnify Indemnitee hereunder against any losses that may result from such Claim by a third party
        without reservation of rights. In the event that Indemnitee controls the defense of any Claim by a third party, then Indemnitor shall make available to Indemnitee any documents and materials Indemnitor’s possession or control that are reasonably
        necessary to the defense of such Claim. If Indemnitor controls the defense of the Claim by a third party, then Indemnitee shall make available to Indemnitor any documents and materials in Indemnitee’s possession or control that are reasonably
        necessary to the defense of such Claim. So long as Indemnitor has assumed the defense of any Claim by a third party in accordance herewith and notified Indemnitee in writing thereof pursuant hereto: (x) Indemnitee may retain separate co-counsel at
        its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Claim by the third party and (y) Indemnitor will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Claim by the third party without the prior
        written consent of Indemnitee. In the case of any Claim by a third party where Indemnitor has assumed the defense of such Claim in accordance herewith and reasonably believes that it would be appropriate to settle such claim using equitable
        remedies (i.e., remedies involving the future use of the Assets), Indemnitor and Indemnitee shall work together in good faith to agree to a settlement; provided, however, that no Party shall be under any obligation to agree to any such settlement.

    

    

    10.5.   Certain Limitations. The liability of any of Seller Parties or Buyer, as applicable, for indemnification claims under this Agreement shall be limited by the following: The obligations to indemnify and hold harmless a Party
        in respect of a breach of representation, warranty or covenant shall terminate on the applicable survival date as set forth in Section 10.1, unless, with respect to a
        representation, warranty or covenant that terminates following the Closing Date, an Indemnitee has made a proper claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10
        prior to such termination date. If an Indemnitee has made a proper claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10 prior to such termination date, then such claim
        will not be extinguished by the passage of the deadlines set forth in Section 10.1. No Buyer Indemnitee will be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(i) unless and until the aggregate amount of all losses subject to such indemnification would exceed, on a cumulative basis, an amount equal to Ten Thousand
        Dollars ($10,000) (“Basket”), and then only to the extent such losses exceed the Basket. In no event shall the aggregate liability of Seller Parties (i)
        pursuant to Section 10.2(i) exceed an aggregate amount equal to the Purchase Price. For purposes of determining any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty
        and the amount of any Losses related thereto, no effect shall be given to any “Material Adverse Effect” or other materiality qualification in the relevant representation or warranty. The representations, warranties and covenants of Seller Parties,
        and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by Buyer Indemnitees, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or knowledge of, any of the Buyer Indemnitees or any
        of their representatives. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing in this Section 10 shall limit the liability of any Party for fraud or
        intentional misrepresentation related to the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement.

     

    
      30

      
        

    

    10.6.      Lock-Up Period. Subject to the permitted transfers set forth below in this Section 10.6, Seller hereby agrees that Seller shall not
        sell, offer, pledge, contract to sell, grant any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or encumber, directly or indirectly, any Closing Shares or
        Escrow Shares, nor shall Seller enter into any swap, hedging or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Closing Shares or Escrow Shares or other securities of Buyer,
        until the first to occur of (i) the two one (21) year period following
        the Effective Date, or (ii) the first date after the Effective Date on which the ten (10) day VWAP of Buyer’s shares on the Nasdaq Stock Market drops
        to or below One Dollar and Fifty Cents ($1.50). The foregoing shall not limit or prevent any transfer from (x) Seller to another Seller Party, (y) for the purpose of paying an money from Seller of Seller Parties to Buyer, or (z) a transfer by will
        or trust upon the death of a Seller Party who is a natural person to the beneficiaries of that Seller Party. Buyer may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such period
        except for subparagraphs (x), (y), and (z) above.

    

    

    11.          Miscellaneous.

    

    

    11.1.      Entire Agreement. This document constitutes the entire agreement between the parties, all oral agreements being merged herein, and supersedes all prior representations. There are no representations, agreements,
        arrangements, or understandings, oral or written, between or among the Parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement that are not fully expressed herein.

    

    

    11.2.    Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement, or in any instrument, certificate, opinion, or other writing provided for in it, shall survive the Closing.

    

    

    11.3.    Amendment. The provisions of this Agreement may be modified at any time by agreement of the Parties. Any such agreement hereafter made shall be ineffective to modify this Agreement in any respect unless in writing and
        signed by the Parties against whom enforcement of the modification or discharge is sought.

    

    

    11.4.      Waiver. Any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver shall affect or impair the right of the waiving Party to require
        observance, performance or satisfaction either of that term or condition as it applies on a subsequent occasion or of any other term or condition.

     

    
      31

      
        

    

    11.5.      Non-assignability. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Any assignment contrary to the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed a default under the
        Agreement, allowing the non-defaulting Parties to exercise any available remedies.

    

    

    11.6.    Succession. Subject to the provisions otherwise contained in this Agreement, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on the successors and permitted assigns of the respective Parties.

    

    

    11.7.      Parties in Interest. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to confer any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement on any persons other than the Parties and their respective
        successors and permitted assigns, nor is anything in this Agreement intended to relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any third persons to any Party, nor shall any provision herein give any third persons any right of subrogation or
        action against any party to this Agreement.

    

    

    11.8.      Specific Performance. Each Party’s obligations under this Agreement are unique. The Parties each acknowledge that, if any Party should default in performance of the duties and obligations imposed by this Agreement, it would
        be extremely impracticable to measure the resulting damages. Accordingly, the non-defaulting Party, in addition to any other available rights or remedies, may sue in equity for specific performance, and the Parties each expressly waive the defense
        that a remedy in damages will be adequate.

    

    

    11.9.      Notices. Any notice under this Agreement shall be in writing, and any written notice or other document shall be deemed to have been duly given (i) on the date of personal service on the Parties, (ii) on the third business
        day after mailing, if the document is mailed by registered or certified mail, (iii) one day after being sent by professional or overnight courier or messenger service guaranteeing one-day delivery, with receipt confirmed by the courier, or (iv) on
        the date of transmission if sent by telegram, telex, telecopy or other means of electronic transmission resulting in written copies, with receipt confirmed. Any such notice shall be delivered or addressed to the Parties at the most recent address
        specified by the addressee through written notice under this provision. Failure to give notice in accordance with any of the foregoing methods shall not defeat the effectiveness of notice actually received by the addressee.

    

    

    11.10.    Attorneys’ Fees; Prejudgment Interest. If the services of an attorney are required by any Party to secure the performance of this Agreement or otherwise upon the breach or default of another Party to this Agreement, or if
        any judicial remedy or arbitration is necessary to enforce or interpret any provision of this Agreement or the rights and duties of any person in relation thereto, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and
        other expenses, in addition to any other relief to which such Party may be entitled. Any award of damages following judicial remedy or arbitration as a result of the breach of this Agreement or any of its provisions shall include an award of
        prejudgment interest from the date of the breach at the maximum amount of interest allowed by law.

    

    

    11.11.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if the Parties had all signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one
        agreement.

     

    
      32

      
        

    

    11.12.    Captions. All paragraph captions are for reference only and shall not be considered in construing this Agreement.

    

    

    11.13.   Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Agreement which can be given effect without the invalid provision shall
        continue in full force and effect and shall in no way be impaired or invalidated.

    

    

    11.14.   Governing Law. The rights and obligations of the Parties shall be governed and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule
        (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction).

    

    

    11.15.    Venue. Each Party consents to the jurisdiction of, and any actions arising under this Agreement shall be heard and resolved in, courts in the State of Arkansas, County of Cross.

    

    

    11.16.    Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed exclusive but shall whenever possible be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity.

    

    

    11.17.   Dispute Resolution. Seller and Buyer agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to settle any disputes regarding the rights or obligations of the Parties under this Agreement through negotiation and agreement. Any
        disputes that cannot be settled in this manner shall be conclusively determined by binding arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted as follows:

    

    

    (a)        Mediation. In the event of any unresolved disputes concerning the Net Working Capital or Closing Report (whether the final or estimated versions of either), Seller and Buyer shall jointly select an independent
        mediator, who shall have at least ten (10) years of relevant experience, to mediate such dispute; provided that if Seller and Buyer fail to jointly select a mediator
        within the above specified period, such unresolved dispute will be resolved in accordance with Section 11.17(b). Within thirty (30) days, or longer if mutually agreed by
        Seller and Buyer, following the selection of the mediator, Seller and Buyer shall meet for one (1) day with the jointly selected mediator in an attempt to resolve the dispute; provided,
        however, that such mediation will not be binding upon any of the Parties. The
          costs of mediation shall be shared equally by the Buyer and the Seller Parties.

    

    

    (b)      Arbitration. Any dispute between the Parties shall be submitted to, and conclusively determined by, arbitration as agreed to by both Parties and in accordance with this Section. The provisions of this Section shall not
        preclude any Party from seeking injunctive or other provisional or equitable relief in order to preserve the status quo of the Parties pending resolution of the dispute, and the filing of an action seeking injunctive or other provisional relief
        shall not be construed as a waiver of that Party’s arbitration rights. The arbitration of any dispute between the Parties to this Agreement shall be governed by Delaware law.

    

    

    (c)          Initiation of Arbitration; Selection of Arbitrators; Location of Arbitration and Applicable Law. In the case of any dispute between the Parties to this Agreement, the Parties shall agree to initiate binding arbitration
        process provided for in this paragraph. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, in order to be enforceable a demand for arbitration must be served within sixty (60) days of the date on which a Party discovers, or reasonably should have
        discovered facts giving rise to the dispute. Within thirty (30) days of service of a demand for arbitration, the Parties shall endeavor in good faith to select a single arbitrator. If they fail to do so within that time period, each Party shall
        have an additional period of fifteen (15) days in which to appoint an arbitrator and those arbitrators within fifteen (15) days shall select an additional arbitrator. If any Party fails to appoint an arbitrator or if the arbitrators initially
        selected by the Parties fail to appoint an additional arbitrator within the time specified herein, any Party may apply to have an arbitrator appointed for the Party who has failed to appoint, or to have the additional arbitrator appointed, by the
        presiding judge for the Circuit Court of Cross County, Arkansas. If the presiding judge, acting in his or her personal capacity, is unable or unwilling to appoint the additional arbitrator, that arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with
        Delaware law. Any arbitration hearing shall be conducted in Wynne, Cross County, Arkansas. The law applicable to the arbitration of any dispute shall be the law of the State of Delaware, excluding its conflict of law rules.

     

    
      33

      
        

    

    (d)        Arbitration Procedures. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the arbitration shall be governed by Delaware law. In addition, each Party may choose, at that Party’s discretion, to request that the arbitrators
        resolve any dispositive motions prior to the taking of evidence on the merits of the dispute. In the event a Party to the arbitration requests that the arbitrators resolve a dispositive motion, the arbitrators shall receive and consider any written
        or oral arguments regarding the dispositive motion, and shall receive and consider any evidence specifically relating thereto, and shall render a decision thereon, before hearing any evidence on the merits of the dispute.

    

    

    (e)          Limitation on Scope of Arbitrators’ Award or Decision; Costs of Arbitration; Attorneys’ Fees. Buyer and Seller agree that if the arbitrators find any disputed claim to be meritorious, the arbitrators shall have the
        authority to order legal and/or equitable relief appropriate to the claim, but that in no event shall the arbitrators have authority to award punitive or exemplary damages. The Parties shall share equally the costs of the arbitration and each side
        shall bear its own attorneys’ fees. However, Buyer and Seller agree that the arbitrators, in their discretion, may award to the prevailing Party the costs, including the costs of the arbitration, and attorneys’ fees incurred by that Party in
        participating in the arbitration process.

    

    

    11.18.   Ambiguities. The Agreement has been negotiated at arm’s length between persons sophisticated and knowledgeable in the matters dealt with herein. Each Party has been represented by experienced and knowledgeable legal
        counsel. Accordingly, any rule of law, or legal decision that would require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting Party is not applicable and is waived. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a
        reasonable manner to effect the purpose of the Parties.
