                  and can be exercised in increments of up to the maximum
                  warrants issuable under the terms of this agreement.

                  Galaxy Foods Company reserves the right to cancel any
                  unvested warrants at any time prior to the vesting date if
                  the Company is dissatisfied with the business relationships
                  between the two parties.

         1.2      Full Exercise. Once vested, this Warrant may be exercised in
full by the holder hereof by surrender of this Warrant, with the form of
subscription at the end hereof duly executed by such holder, to the Company at
its principal office, accompanied by payment, in cash or by certified or
official bank check payable to the order of the Company, in the amount obtained
by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is
then exercisable by the Purchase Price then in effect.

         1.3      Partial Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in part by
surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the place provided in Section
1.1 except that the amount payable by the holder on such partial exercise shall
be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Common Stock
designated by the holder in the subscription at the end hereof by (b) the
Purchase Price then in effect. On any such partial exercise the Company at its
expense will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the holder
hereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the holder
hereof or as such holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable
transfer taxes) may request, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces
thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant or
Warrants may still be exercised.

         1.4      Company Acknowledgement. The Company will, at the time of the

<PAGE>

exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the holder hereof, acknowledge in
writing its continuing obligation to afford to such holder any rights to which
such holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance
with the provisions of this Warrant. If the holder shall fail to make any such
request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company
to afford to such holder any such rights.

         2.       Delivery of Stock Certificates on Exercise. As soon as
practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, the Company
at its expense (including the payment by it if any applicable issue taxes) will
cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the holder hereof, or as
such holder (upon payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may
direct, a nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which
such holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional
share to which such holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such
fraction multiplied by the then current market value of one full share,
together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash,
where applicable) to which such holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant
to Section 1 and otherwise.

         3.       Adjustment for Dividends in Other Stock, Property or
Reclassification. In case at any time or from time to time, the holders of
Common Stock (or Other Securities) shall have received, or (on or after the
record date fixed for the determination of shareholders eligible to receive)
shall have become entitled to receive, without payment therefor,

         (a)      other or additional stock or other securities or property
(other than cash) by way of dividend, or

         (b)      any cash (excluding cash dividends payable solely out of
earnings or earned surplus of the Company), or

         (c)      other or additional stock or other securities or property
(including cash) by way of spin-off, split-up, reclassification,
recapitalization, combination of shares of similar corporate rearrangement,
other than additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued as s
stock dividend or in a stock-split (adjustment in respect of which are provided
for in Section 4 hereof), then and in each such case the holder of this
Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1 hereof, shall be
entitled to receive the amount of stock and other securities and property
(including cash in the cases referred to in subdivisions (b) and (c) of this
Section 3) which such holder would hold on the date of such exercise if on the
date hereof the holder had been the holder of record of the number of shares of
Common Stock called for on the face of this Warrant and had thereafter, during
the period from the date hereof to and including the date of such stock and
other securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in
subdivision (b) and (c) of this Section 3) receivable by such holder as
aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for
during such period by Section 4 hereof.

         4.       Extraordinary Events. In the event that the Company shall (i)
issue additional shares of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on
outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common
Stock, or (iii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares of Common Stock, then, in each such event, the

<PAGE>

Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be
adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares
of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so
obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase
Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the
happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4.
The holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided
in Section 1 hereof, be entitled to receive that number of shares of Common
Stock determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock which
would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such
exercise by a fraction of which (i) the numerator of the Purchase Price which
would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and
(ii) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such
exercise.

         5.       Notices of Record Date, etc. In the event of

                  (a)      any taking by the Company of a record of the holders
of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof
who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, or any right to
subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of stock of any class
or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, or

                  (b)      any capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any
transfer of all or substantially all the assets of the Company to or
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other person, or

                  (c)      any voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up of the Company, then and in each such event the
Company will mail or cause to be mailed to each holder of a Warrant a notice
specifying (i) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose
of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character
of such dividend, distribution or right, (ii) the date of which any such
reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time,
if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of the Common Stock
(or Other Securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common
Stock (or Other Securities) for securities or other property deliverable on
such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and (iii) the
amount and character of any stock or other securities, or rights or options
with respect thereto, proposed to be issued or granted, the date of such
proposed issue or grant is to be offered or made. Such notice shall be mailed
at least 20 days prior to the date specified in such notice on which any such
action is to be taken.

Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and
delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrants.

<PAGE>

         7.       Exchange of Warrant. On surrender for exchange of any
Warrant, properly endorsed, to the Company, the Company at its expense will
issue and deliver to or on the order of the holder thereof a new Warrant and
Warrants of like tenor, in the name of such holder or as such holder (on
payment by such holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, calling in
the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common
Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant or Warrants so
surrendered.

         8.       Replacement of Warrant. On receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this
Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably
satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such
mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the company at its
expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

         9.       Warrant Agent. The Company may, by written notice to each
holder of a Warrant, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock
(or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1
hereof, exchanging Warrants pursuant to Section 7 hereof, and replacing
Warrants pursuant to Section 8 hereof, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter
any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made

corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issue or reclassification

         3.       Representations and Warranties. The Company hereby represents
and warrants to each Agent and each Lender (and the Canadian Borrower
represents and warrants with respect to itself to each Agent and each Lender)
as follows:

                  (i)      Representations and Warranties. The representations
         and warranties contained in Article VI of the Agreement are true and
         correct in all material respects as of the date hereof (except to the
         extent such representations and warranties expressly refer to an
         earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such
         earlier date).

                  (ii)     Enforceability. The execution and delivery by each
         Borrower of this Amendment, and the performance by each Borrower of
         this Amendment and the Agreement, as amended hereby, are within the
         corporate powers of such Borrower and have been duly authorized by all
         necessary corporate action on the part of such Borrower. This
         Amendment and the Agreement, as amended hereby, are valid and legally
         binding obligations of each Borrower, enforceable in accordance with
         their terms.

                  (iii)    No Default. No Event of Default or Unmatured Event
         of Default has occurred and is continuing.

         4.       Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly amended and modified
by this Amendment, all provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force
and effect; and each Borrower confirms and reaffirms its Obligations under the
Agreement as amended by this Amendment. After this Amendment becomes effective,
all references in the Agreement (or in any other Loan Document) to "this
Agreement", "hereof", "herein" or words of similar effect referring to the
Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Agreement as amended by this
Amendment. This Amendment shall not be deemed to expressly or impliedly waive,
amend or supplement any provision of the Agreement other than as set forth
herein.

         5.       Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective upon the
receipt by the Agent on or before December 17, 2001 of counterparts of this
Amendment (whether by facsimile or otherwise) executed by the Borrowers, the
Agents, Bank of America, National Association, acting through its Canadian
Branch, and the Required Lenders (including the Required Canadian Lenders).

         6.       Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, and each
counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall
together constitute but one and the same instrument. A facsimile of the
signature of any party on any counterpart shall be effective as the signature
of the party executing such counterpart for purposes of the effectiveness of
this Amendment.

         7.       Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of North Carolina without
regard to the conflicts or choice of law principles thereof; provided that the
parties hereto shall retain all rights arising under U.S. Federal law.

         8.       Section Headings. The various headings of this Amendment are
inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or
interpretation of this amendment or the Agreement or any provision hereof or
thereof.
