        This Guaranty (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance
        with the terms hereof and in effect from time to time, this
        “Guaranty”) is made as of
        the 19th day of November, 2007 by Bunge Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of
        Bermuda (together with any successors or assigns permitted hereunder,
        “BL” or
        “Guarantor”) to JPMorgan
        Chase Bank, N.A. in its capacity as the administrative agent (together with its successors
        and assigns, the “Administrative
        Agent”) under the Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of
        November 19, 2007 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in
        accordance with the terms thereof, the “Credit
        Agreement”), among Bunge Limited Finance Corp., a Delaware
        corporation (“BLFC”), the
        Administrative Agent and the financial institutions from time to time party thereto (each a
        “Lender” and collectively,
        the “Lenders”), for the
        benefit of the Lenders.

         

        
        WITNESSETH:

        
         

        
        WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement the Lenders have agreed to make
        revolving loans denominated in Dollars and Euros (the
        “Loans”) to BLFC from time
        to time;

        
         

        
        WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition
        precedent to the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement;

        
         

        
        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants
        contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:

        
         

        
        Section 1.        
        Definitions. For all purposes of this Guaranty,
        except as otherwise expressly provided in Annex A hereto or unless the context otherwise
        requires, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in
        the Credit Agreement.

        
         

        
        Section 2.       
        Guaranty. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally
        and irrevocably guarantees (collectively, the “Guaranty
        Obligations”) the prompt and punctual payment of all
        Obligations due and owing (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise)
        under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents whether direct or indirect,
        absolute or contingent, due or to become due, or now existing or hereafter incurred. All
        payments by the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be made in Euros (if made with respect
        to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in Euros) or Dollars (if made with
        respect to any other amount) and (i) with respect to Loans, shall be made to the
        Administrative Agent for disbursement pro rata (determined at the time such payment is
        sought) to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages,
        (ii) with respect to fees, expenses and indemnifications owed to the Lenders, shall be made
        to the Administrative Agent for disbursement pro rata (determined at the time such payment
        is sought) to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Aggregate Exposure
        Percentages and (iii) with respect to fees, expenses and indemnifications owed to the
        Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, shall be

         

         

         

        
        

        

        

        

        made to
        the Administrative Agent. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the
        Guaranty Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding
        that from time to time prior thereto BLFC may be free from any payment obligations under
        the Loan Documents. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of
        collection.

         

        
        Section 3.        
        Guaranty Absolute. The Guarantor guarantees
        that the Guaranty Obligations will be paid, regardless of any applicable law, regulation or
        order now or hereinafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the
        rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect thereto. The liability of the
        Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective
        of:

         

        
        (a)       Any lack of validity or
        enforceability of or defect or deficiency in the Credit Agreement, any Transaction Document
        or Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in connection with or
        pursuant thereto;

         

        
        (b)       Any change in the time, manner,
        terms or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranty
        Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the
        Credit Agreement, any Transaction Document or Loan Document or any other agreement or
        instrument relating thereto or executed in connection therewith or pursuant
        thereto;

         

        
        (c)       Any sale, exchange or
        non-perfection of any property standing as security for the liabilities hereby guaranteed
        or any liabilities incurred directly or indirectly hereunder or any setoff against any of
        said liabilities, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any
        other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranty Obligations;

         

        
        (d)       The failure of the
        Administrative Agent or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or
        remedy against BLFC or any other Person hereunder or under the Credit Agreement or any
        Transaction Document or any Loan Document;

         

        
        (e)       Any failure by BLFC in the
        performance of any obligation with respect to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
        Document;

         

        
        (f)        Any bankruptcy of
        BLFC;

         

        
        (g)       Any other circumstance which
        might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Guarantor, BLFC
        or any other Person (including any other guarantor) that is a party to any document or
        instrument executed in respect of the Guaranty Obligations; or

         

        
        (h)       Any limitation of BLFC’s
        obligations pursuant to subsection 8.16(b)
        of the Credit Agreement.

         

        
        2

         

        
        

        

        

        

        
        The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected
        by the amount of credit extended to BLFC, any repayment by BLFC to the Administrative Agent
        or the Lenders (in each case, other than the full and final payment of all of the Guaranty
        Obligations), allocation by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any repayment, any
        compromise or discharge of the Guaranty Obligations, any application, release or
        substitution of collateral or other security therefore, release of any guarantor, surety or
        other person obligated in connection with any document or instrument executed in respect of
        the Guaranty Obligations, or any further advances to BLFC.

        
         

        
        Section 4.        
        Waiver. The Guarantor hereby waives (a)
        promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand, protest, notice of
        protest and dishonor, notice of default, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of
        acceleration and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranty Obligations and this
        Guaranty, (b) any requirement that the Administrative Agent or the Lenders protect, secure,
        perfect or insure any security interest or Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust
        any right or take any action against BLFC or any other Person or entity or any collateral
        or that BLFC or any other Person or entity be joined in any action hereunder, (c) the
        defense of the statute of limitations in any action under the Guaranty or for the
        collection or performance of the Guaranty Obligations, (d) any defense arising by reason of
        any lack of corporate authority, (e) any defense based upon any guaranteed party’s
        errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranty Obligations except to the extent
        that any error or omission is caused by such guaranteed party’s bad faith, gross
        negligence or willful misconduct, (f) any rights to set-offs and counterclaims and (g) any
        defense based upon an election of remedies which destroys or impairs the subrogation rights
        of the Guarantor or the right of the Guarantor to proceed against BLFC or any other obligor
        of the Guaranty Obligations for reimbursement. All dealings between the Borrower or the
        Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other
        hand, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance
        upon this Guaranty. Should the Administrative Agent seek to enforce the obligations of the
        Guarantor hereunder by action in any court, the Guarantor waives any necessity, substantive
        or procedural, that a judgment previously be rendered against BLFC or any other Person, or
        that any action be brought against BLFC or any other Person, or that BLFC or any other
        Person should be joined in such cause. Such waiver shall be without prejudice to the
        Administrative Agent at its option to proceed against BLFC or any other Person, whether by
        separate action or by joinder. The Guarantor further expressly waives each and every right
        to which it may be entitled by virtue of the suretyship law of the State of New York or any
        other applicable jurisdiction.

        
         

        
        Section 5.        
        Several Obligations; Continuing Guaranty. The
        obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are separate and apart from BLFC or any other Person
        (other than the Guarantor), and are primary obligations concerning which the Guarantor is
        the principal obligor. The Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty is a continuing Guaranty and
        that it shall not be discharged except by payment in full of the Guaranty Obligations,
        termination of the Commitments and complete performance of the obligations of the Guarantor
        hereunder. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected in any way by
        the release or

         

        
        3

         

        
        

        

        

        

        
        discharge of BLFC from the performance of any of the Guaranty Obligations,
        whether occurring by reason of law or any other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the
        foregoing.

         

        
        Section 6.        
        Subrogation Rights. If any amount shall be paid
        to the Guarantor on account of subrogation rights at any time when all the Guaranty
        Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the
        benefit of the Administrative Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent
        to be applied to the Guaranty Obligations as specified in the Loan Documents. If (a) the
        Guarantor makes a payment to the Administrative Agent of all or any part of the Guaranty
        Obligations and (b) all the Guaranty Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments
        have terminated, the Administrative Agent will, at the Guarantor’s request, execute
        and deliver to the Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without
        representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, necessary to evidence the transfer by
        subrogation to the Guarantor of any interest in the Guaranty Obligations resulting from
        such payment by the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby agrees that it shall have no rights of
        subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification or any right to
        participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against BLFC
        with respect to amounts due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders until such time as
        all obligations of BLFC to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have been paid in full,
        the Commitments have been terminated and the Credit Agreement has been
        terminated.

         

        
        Section 7.        
        Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor
        hereby represents and warrants as follows:

        and the related consolidated statements of income for the fiscal year ended on such date,
        reported on by the Guarantor’s independent public accountants, copies of which have
        heretofore been furnished to the Administrative Agent, are complete and correct, in all
        material respects, and present fairly the financial condition of the Guarantor and its
        consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the results of operations for the fiscal
        year then ended. Such financial statements, including any related schedules and notes
        thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the
        periods involved (except as approved by the external auditors and as disclosed therein, if
        any).

         

        
         (ii)       Except as disclosed in

        lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment, including, without limitation, any
        interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction, which is not reflected in
        the foregoing statements or in the notes thereto, except for guarantees, indemnities
        or

        obligations of one Subsidiary to another Subsidiary.

         

        
        (iii)      During the period from December 31,
        2006 to and including the date hereof, except as disclosed in Schedule VI attached hereto,

        disposed of any material part of its business or property, nor has it purchased or
        otherwise acquired any business or property (including any capital stock of any other
        Person) material in relation to the consolidated financial condition of the Guarantor and
        its consolidated Subsidiaries at December 31, 2006.

        Change. Since December 31, 2006, except as disclosed in Schedule
        I hereof, there has been no development or event which has had or could, in the
        Guarantor’s good faith reasonable judgment, reasonably be expected to have a Material
        Adverse Effect.

        qualified under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of
        property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the
        failure to be so duly qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
        Effect, and (iv) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law and Contractual Obligations,
        except any non-compliance which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
        Effect.

        Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable
        Obligations. The Guarantor and each of its Subsidiaries has the

        of the properties or revenues of any of the Guarantor or its Subsidiaries pursuant to any
        such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation.

        have not at any time been generated, used, treated or stored on, released or disposed of
        on, or transported to or from, any property owned, leased, used, operated or occupied by

        property owned, leased, used, operated or occupied by the Guarantor or any of its
        Subsidiaries that individually or in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to have a

        No Default. Except with respect to the
        Indebtedness set forth on Schedule III, neither the Guarantor nor any of its Subsidiaries
        is in default under or with respect to any agreement, instrument or undertaking to which it

        representative office or subsidiary in Bermuda. The Guarantor is validly obligated to make
        all payments due under this Guaranty and each of its Subsidiaries is validly obligated to
        make all payments due under the other Loan Documents and Transaction Documents free and
        clear of any such tax, withholding or charge so that the Administrative Agent and the
        Lenders shall receive the amounts due as if no such tax, withholding or charge had been
        imposed.

         

        
        (k)        Pari
        Passu Status. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder
        constitute direct, general obligations of the Guarantor and rank at least pari passu (in
        priority of payment) with all other unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantor
        resulting from any indebtedness for borrowed money or guarantee.

         

        
        (l)

        under the Credit Agreement shall be used by BLFC solely to either make advances under the
        Series 2002-1 VFC or to repay Permitted Indebtedness outstanding from time to
        time.

         

        
        (m)

        respect to the Guarantor, without limitation, the financial statements required to be
        delivered pursuant hereto), which has been made available to the Administrative Agent or
        any Lender by or on behalf of the Guarantor in connection with the transactions

        fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained

        were made; provided, that, with respect to projected financial information provided
        by or on behalf of the Guarantor, the Guarantor represents only that such information was
        prepared in good faith by management of the Guarantor on the basis of assumptions believed
        by such management to be reasonable as of the time made.

        (o)       
        Restrictions on Designated Obligors. There is
        no legal or regulatory restriction on the ability of any Designated Obligor to pay
        dividends to the Guarantor out of earnings at such times as such Designated Obligor is not
        deemed to be insolvent pursuant to the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation nor any
        legal or regulatory restriction preventing the Guarantor from converting such dividend
        payments to Dollars or Euros.

         

        
        (p)       
        Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of
        any advances under the Investor Certificates will be used for “purchasing” or

        (r)

        (s)       
        Consideration. The Guarantor has received, or
        will receive, direct or indirect benefit from the making of this Guaranty. The Guarantor
        has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender and
        based on such documents and information it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit
        analysis and decision to enter into this Guaranty.

         

        The
        Guarantor agrees that the foregoing representations and warranties shall be deemed to have
        been made by the Guarantor on the date of each borrowing by BLFC under the Credit Agreement
        on and as of such date.

        liquidate, wind up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution), or
        convey, sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, all or substantially all of
        its property, business or assets.

         

        
        (c)       
        Liens. The Guarantor shall not nor shall it
        permit any Subsidiary to create or suffer to exist any Lien (including, without limitation,
        any equivalent created or arising under the laws of any jurisdiction in which the Guarantor
        or a Subsidiary does business), upon or with respect to any of its present or future
        property including any asset, revenue, or right to receive income or any other property,
        whether tangible or intangible, real or personal (all of the foregoing hereinafter called
        “Property”), in each case to
        secure Indebtedness unless the Guaranty Obligations are equally and ratably secured,
        except: (i) Liens for current taxes, assessments or other governmental charges which are
        not delinquent or remain payable without any penalty, or the validity of which is contested
        in good faith by appropriate proceedings upon stay of execution of the enforcement thereof
        or upon posting a bond in connection therewith; (ii) any Lien pursuant to any order or
        attachment or similar legal process arising in connection with court proceedings;
        provided that the execution or other
        enforcement thereof is effectively stayed or a sufficient bond had been posted and the
        claims secured thereby are being contested at the time in good faith by appropriate
        proceedings; (iii) any Liens securing bonds posted with respect to and in compliance
        with

         

        
        14

         

        
        

        

        

        

        
        clauses (i) and (ii) above; (iv) any Liens securing the claims of mechanics,
        laborers, workmen, repairmen, materialmen, suppliers, carriers, warehousemen, landlords, or
        vendors or other claims provided for by mandatory provisions of law which are not yet due
        and delinquent, or are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; (v) Liens
        which are Excluded Liens (as defined below); (vi) any Lien on any Property securing
        Indebtedness incurred or assumed solely for the purpose of financing all or any part of the
        cost of constructing or acquiring such Property, which Lien attaches to such Property
        concurrently with or within ninety (90) days after the construction, acquisition or
        completion of a series of related acquisitions thereof; (vii) Liens existing immediately
        prior to the execution of this Guaranty and set forth in Schedule V to this Guaranty;
        (viii) Liens to secure bonds posted in order to obtain stays of judgments, attachments or
        orders, the existence of which bonds would not otherwise constitute an Event of Default;
        (ix) Liens on Property existing prior to the acquisition of such Property or the
        acquisition of any Subsidiary that is the owner of such Property and not in contemplation
        of such acquisition; (x) Liens created by a Subsidiary in favor of the Guarantor or a
        Subsidiary; (xi) Liens on any accounts receivable from or invoices to export customers
        (including, but not limited to, Subsidiaries) and the proceeds thereof; (xii) Liens on

        replacing, in whole or in part Liens permitted pursuant to clauses (i) through (xi), so
        long as the principal amount of the Indebtedness secured by such Lien does not exceed its
        original principal amount; (xv) minor survey exceptions or minor encumbrances, easements or
        reservations, or rights of others for rights-of-way, utilities and other similar purposes,
        or zoning or other restrictions as to the use of real properties, which are necessary for
        the conduct of the activities of the Guarantor or the Subsidiaries or which customarily
        exist on properties of corporations engaged in similar activities and similarly situated
        and which do not in any event materially impair their use in the operation of the business
        of the Guarantor or the Subsidiaries; (xvi) Liens incurred pursuant to the Loan Documents
        and Transaction Documents; (xvii) Liens on accounts receivable and other related assets
        arising in connection with transfers thereof to the extent such transfers are treated as
        true sales of financial assets under FASB Statement No. 140, as in effect from time to
        time; and (xviii) Liens (other than Liens otherwise permitted by clauses (i) through (xvii)
        above) incurred by the Guarantor or a Subsidiary which, at the time incurred do not,
        together with all other Liens incurred by the Guarantor and the Subsidiaries (other than
        Liens otherwise permitted by clauses (i) through (xvii) above) secure an aggregate
        principal amount exceeding (at the time such Lien is issued or created) $250,000,000
        (collectively, Liens described in clauses (i)-(xviii) are referred to herein as
        “Permitted Liens”);
        provided,
        however, that Indebtedness incurred in
        connection with any permitted sale and leaseback

         

        
        15

         

        
        

        

        

        

         

        
        transactions which are treated as debt in accordance with generally accepted
        accounting principles applicable to such Subsidiary will be included in such determination
        and treated as being secured by Liens not otherwise permitted by clauses (i) through
        (xvii). For purposes of interpreting the terms of this Guaranty, (A) the phrases
        “accounts receivable from or invoices to export customers” and “contracts
        to sell, purchase or receive commodities to (from) export customers” shall refer to
        invoices or accounts receivable derived from the sale of, or contracts to sell, purchase or
        receive wheat, soybeans or other commodities or products derived from the processing of
        wheat, soybeans or other commodities, by or to the Guarantor or a Subsidiary that have been
        or are to be exported from the country of origin whether or not such sale is made by a
        Subsidiary or to any of its Subsidiaries; and (B) property of a party to a corporate
        reorganization which is not the Guarantor or a Subsidiary shall be deemed
        “acquired” by the Guarantor or such Subsidiary as part of such corporate
        reorganization even if the Guarantor or Subsidiary, as the case may be, is not the
        surviving or resulting entity.

         

        
        As used in this subsection, the term “Excluded Lien” shall mean
        any Lien (i) granted by the Guarantor or any Subsidiary to secure (A) loans from banks
        controlled by governmental agencies or (B) loans from other lenders in connection with
        government programs, or (ii) which secures Indebtedness owing to a Person by any of its
        Subsidiaries.

         

        
        (d)       
        Restrictions on Dividends or Loans by Designated
        Obligors. The Guarantor shall not permit any Designated Obligor
        to enter into any agreement restricting the payment of dividends or the making of loans by
        it to the Guarantor or to any other Designated Obligor, except
        that the Guarantor may permit a Designated Obligor to be party to
        agreements (i) limiting the payment of dividends by such Designated Obligor following a
        default or an event of default under such agreement and (ii) requiring the compliance by
        such Designated Obligor with specified net worth, working capital or other similar
        financial tests and (iii) restricting loans to be made by such Designated Obligor to any
        other Obligor or the Guarantor to such loans which accrue interest at a rate greater than
        or equal to such lending Designated Obligor’s average cost of funds as determined in
        good faith by the Board of Director of such Designated Obligor.

         

        
        (e)       
        Intercompany Loans. Notwithstanding any
        provision to the contrary set forth in the Transaction Documents (including, without
        limitation, clause (s) of the definition of “Eligible Loan” in Annex X), the
        Guarantor (i) shall not permit any Seller to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise convey any
        Intercompany Loan to Bunge Funding under the Sale Agreement that has a maturity in excess
        of six (6) years and (ii) shall either cause a Seller, Bunge Funding or the Trustee to
        demand repayment of all outstanding principal and accrued interest under each Intercompany
        Loan or cause a Seller to refinance such

         

        
        16

         

        
        

        

        

        

        
        amounts by making a new Intercompany Loan to the applicable Obligor within
        six (6) years from the date of such Intercompany Loan.

         

        
        Section 9.        
        Amendments. No amendment or waiver of any
        provision of this Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom shall in
        any event be effective unless such amendment or waiver shall be in writing and signed by
        the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent. Such waiver or consent shall be effective only
        in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

         

        
        Section 10.      
        Notices, Etc. All notices, demands,
        instructions and other communications required or permitted to be given to or made upon any
        Person pursuant hereto shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent by
        registered, certified or express mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by
        facsimile transmission, and shall be deemed to be given for purposes of this Guaranty, in
        the case of a notice sent by registered, certified or express mail, on the date that such
        writing is actually delivered to the intended recipient thereof in accordance with the
        provisions of this Section 10, or in the
        case of facsimile transmission, when received and telephonically confirmed. Unless
        otherwise specified in a notice sent or delivered in accordance with the foregoing
        provisions of this Section 10, notices,
        demands, instructions and other communications in writing shall be given to or made upon
        the subject parties at their respective Notice Addresses (or to their respective facsimile
        transmission numbers) or at such other address or number as any party may notify to the
        other parties in accordance with the provisions of this Section
        10.

         

        
        Section 11.       No
        Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative
        Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a
        waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude
        any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies
        herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by
        law.

         

        
        Section 12.      
        Costs and Expenses. The Guarantor agrees to
        pay, and cause to be paid, on demand all costs and expenses actually incurred by the
        Administrative Agent in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty including, without
        limitation, the fees and out of pocket expenses of outside counsel to the Administrative
        Agent with respect thereto. The agreements of the Guarantor contained in this
        Section 12 shall survive the payment of all
        other amounts owing hereunder or under any of the other Guaranty Obligations.

         

        
        Section 13.      
        Separability. Should any clause, sentence,
        paragraph, subsection or Section of this Guaranty be judicially declared to be invalid,
        unenforceable or void, such decision will not have the effect of invalidating or voiding
        the remainder of this Guaranty, and the parties hereto agree that the part or parts of this
        Guaranty so held to be invalid, unenforceable or void will be deemed to have been stricken
        herefrom and the remainder will have the same force and effectiveness as if such part or
        parts had never been included herein.

        Section 14.      
        Captions. The captions in this Guaranty have
        been inserted for convenience only and shall be given no substantive meaning or
        significance whatever in construing the terms and provisions of this Guaranty.

         

        
        Section 15.      
        Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall (a)
        be binding upon the Guarantor and its successors and assigns and (b) inure to the benefit
        of and be enforceable by the Administrative Agent and its successors, transferees and
        assigns; provided,
        however, that any assignment by the Guarantor
        of its obligations hereunder shall (i) be subject to the prior written consent of all the
        Lenders at their complete discretion, and (ii) only be made to a one hundred percent (100%)
        owned Affiliate of the Guarantor.

         

        
        Section 16.       Limitation by Law.
        All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Guaranty may be exercised only to the
        extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provision of law, and all
        the provisions of this Guaranty are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory
        provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so
        that they will not render this Guaranty invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not
        entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable
        law.

         

        
        Section 17.       Substitution of
        Guaranty. Subject to the prior written consent of all the Lenders at their complete
        discretion, the Guarantor shall, during the term of this Guaranty, be permitted at its
        option to provide collateral to the Administrative Agent or another form of credit support
        as a substitute for its obligations under this Guaranty. The Guarantor agrees to execute
        whatever security or credit support documents the Administrative Agent reasonably requests
        in order to effectuate the provisions of this Section 17.

         

        
        Section 18.       GOVERNING LAW; FOREIGN
        PARTY PROVISIONS.

         

        
        (a)        THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE
        GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
        YORK.

         

        
        (b)        Consent to
        Jurisdiction. The Guarantor irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of
        any New York state or U.S. federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
        New York, in any action or proceeding relating to its obligations, liabilities or any other
        matter arising out of or in connection with this Guaranty or the other Loan Documents and
        Transaction Documents. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect
        of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state or U.S.
        federal court. The Guarantor also hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
        permitted by law, any objection to venue or the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
        maintenance of any such action or proceeding in any such court.

         

        
        (c)        Appointment for Agent for
        Service of Process. The Guarantor hereby (i) irrevocably designates and appoints its
        chief financial officer (from time to time) at its principal executive offices at 50 Main
        Street, White Plains, New York 10606

         

        
        18

         

        
        

        

        

        

        
        (the “Authorized
        Agent”), as its agent upon which process may be served in
        any suit, action or proceeding related to this Guaranty and represents and warrants that
        the Authorized Agent has accepted such designation and (ii) agrees that service of process
        upon the Authorized Agent and written notice of said service to the Guarantor mailed or
        delivered by a recognized international courier service (with proof of delivery) to its
        Secretary at its registered office at 2 Church Street, Hamilton, Bermuda, shall be deemed
        in every respect effective service of process upon the Guarantor in any such suit or
        proceeding. The Guarantor further agrees to take any and all action, including the
        execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to
        continue such designation and appointment of the Authorized Agent in full force and effect
        so long as the Guaranty is in existence.

         

        
        (d)       
        Waiver of Immunities. To the extent that the
        Guarantor or any of its properties, assets or revenues may have or may hereafter become
        entitled to, or have attributed to them, any right of immunity, on the grounds of
        sovereignty, from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from set-off or counterclaim, from
        the jurisdiction of any court, from service of process, from attachment upon or prior to
        judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from execution of
        judgment, or other legal process or proceeding for the giving of any relief or for the
        enforcement of any judgment, in any jurisdiction in which proceedings may at any time be
        commenced, with respect to its obligations, liabilities or any other matter under or
        arising out of or in connection with this Guaranty or any other Loan Documents and
        Transaction Documents, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, to the extent
        permitted by applicable law, waives and agrees not to plead or claim any such immunity and
        consents to such relief and enforcement.

         

        
        (e)       
        Foreign Taxes. Any payments by the Guarantor to
        the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction
        or withholding for or on account of, any and all present and future income, stamp or other
        taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or
        hereinafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by Bermuda or any other
        jurisdiction in which the Guarantor has an office from which payment is made or deemed to
        be made, excluding (i) any such tax imposed by reason of the Administrative Agent, having
        some connection with any such jurisdiction other than its participation as the
        Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and Transaction Documents, and (ii) any
        income or franchise tax on the overall net income of the Administrative Agent imposed by
        the United States or by the State of New York or any political subdivision of the United
        States or of the State of New York on the office of the Administrative Agent through which
        it is acting in connection with this transaction (all such non-excluded taxes,
        “Foreign Taxes”). If the
        Guarantor is prevented by operation of law or otherwise from paying, causing to be paid or
        remitting that portion of amounts payable hereunder represented by Foreign Taxes withheld
        or deducted, then amounts payable under this Guaranty shall, to the extent permitted by
        law, be increased to such amount as is necessary to yield and remit to the Administrative
        Agent an amount which, after

         

         

        
        19

         

        
        

        

        

        

        
        deduction of all Foreign Taxes (including all Foreign Taxes payable on such
        increased payments) equals the amount that would have been payable if no Foreign Taxes
        applied.

         

        
        (f)        
        Judgment Currency. The obligations of the
        Guarantor in respect of any sum due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or
        any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the
        “Applicable Creditor”)
        shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the
        “Judgment Currency”) other
        than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the
        “Agreement Currency”), be
        discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable
        Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor
        may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the
        Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so
        purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement
        Currency, the Guarantor as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment,
        agrees to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the
        Guarantor contained in this Section shall survive the termination of this Guaranty and the
        Credit Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder and
        thereunder.

         

        
        Section 19.      
        WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE GUARANTOR
        HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR
        PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

         

        
        Section 20.      
        Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall be
        reinstated to the extent of payments made to the Guarantor as reimbursement of amounts
        advanced by the Guarantor hereunder. The Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall continue
        to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any part of any
        payment of principal of, or interest on, the Guaranty Obligations is stayed, rescinded or
        must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent upon the bankruptcy or
        reorganization of BLFC or any other Person.

         

        
        Section 21.      
        JPMorgan Chase Conflict Waiver. JPMorgan Chase
        acts as Administrative Agent and Lender and may provide other services or facilities from
        time to time (the “JPMorgan Chase
        Roles”). The Guarantor and each other party hereto
        acknowledges and consents to any and all JPMorgan Chase Roles, waives any objections it may
        have to any actual or potential conflict of interest caused by JPMorgan Chase’s
        acting as Administrative Agent or as Lender hereunder and acting as or maintaining any of
        the JPMorgan Chase Roles, and agrees that in connection with any JPMorgan Chase Role,
        JPMorgan Chase may take, or refrain from taking, any action which it in its discretion
        deems appropriate.

         

        
        Section 22.      
        Setoff. In addition to any rights now or
        hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights,
        upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Series 2002-1 Early Amortization Event,
        each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice to the

        (general
        or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender, to or for
        the credit or the account of the Guarantor against and on account of the obligations and
        liabilities of the Guarantor to such Lender, as applicable, under this Guaranty or any
        other Loan Document, including, without limitation, all claims of any nature or description
        arising out of or connected with this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, irrespective of
        whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said
        obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or
        unmatured.

         

        
        If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it under
        this Guaranty or any other Loan Document upon its Loans in a greater proportion than that
        received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a
        portion of the Loans held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will
        hold its ratable proportion of Loans.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of December 30, 2004, as

November 20, 2007 by and among Biodel Inc., a Delaware corporation with an address at 6 West

Steiner, Ph.D., an individual residing 24 Old Wagon Road, Mt. Kisco, New York 10509 (“Employee”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, Employer desires to secure the services of Employee as President and Chief Executive
Officer; and

     WHEREAS, Employee desires to enter into the employ of Employer in accordance with the terms
and conditions herein set forth;

     WHEREAS, the parties entered into an agreement as of December 30, 2004 which was amended and
restated effective March 20, 2007;

     WHEREAS, the parties wish to further amend such agreement so that such agreement as so amended
shall read in its entirety as follows

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements of the
parties herein set forth, the parties hereto hereby covenant and agree as follows:

          1. Position of Employment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Employer
hereby agrees to employ the services of Employee as President and Chief

1

 

Exhibit 10.1

Executive Officer and
Employee hereby accepts such employment and agrees to serve the Company in such capacity. Employee
shall have the duties, authority and responsibilities customarily associated with the offices of
President and Chief Executive Officer and shall report to the Company’s Board of Directors. During
the period that Employee is employed by Employer, Employee shall devote substantially all of his
business time and attention to the performance of the duties described herein. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Employee shall be entitled to serve on the Board of Directors of Vyteris, Inc. and the
Boards of other Companies if approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, to pursue charitable
endeavors and to participate in professional organizations, provided that such activities do not
interfere in any material respect with the performance by Employee of his duties hereunder.
Employee shall at all time act in good faith in the performance of his duties. Employee agrees to
abide by the rules, regulations, instructions, personnel practices and policies of the Company and
any changes therein which may be adopted from time to time by the Company applicable to employees
generally, including, but not limited to, those relating to the protection of the
Company’s proprietary trade secrets and confidential information.

          2. Contract Term. Unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 4 below, the
initial term of Employee’s employment under this Agreement shall be for the period from the date of
this Agreement (the “Commencement Date”) to November 20, 2009 (the “Initial Termination Date”).
Following the Initial Termination Date, this Agreement shall be automatically renewed for
successive one-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless, at least three months prior to the
Initial Termination Date or the expiration of a Renewal Term, as applicable, Employee or BIODEL in
his or its respective sole discretion notifies the other party in writing of his or its intent to
terminate this

2

 

Exhibit 10.1

Employment Agreement as of the Initial Termination Date or the expiration of a
Renewal Term, as applicable. The term of Employee’s employment hereunder, including any renewal
periods pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, shall be hereafter referred to as the
“Contract Term.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change of Control occurs during the Contract
Term, the Contract Term shall automatically extend for a period of two (2) years from the effective
date of Change of Control and shall automatically terminate at the end of such period. “Change of
Control” shall have the Definition set forth in Appendix A hereto, which is hereby incorporated by
reference.

     3. Salary and Additional Benefits.

          3.1 Employer shall pay to Employee and Employee agrees to accept as compensation for his
services to be rendered hereunder, an initial base salary of Three Hundred and Seventy-Five
Thousand Dollars ($375,000) (“Base Salary”) per year for the period commencing with the
Commencement Date and ending on the completion of the Contract Term, payable in equal installments
on the 15th and last day of each month. In the event the Board of Directors shall by resolution
increase the base salary, then this agreement shall be deemed so amended as of the effective date
of such resolution or such other date specified in such resolution.

          3.2 During the term of this Agreement, Employee, as President and CEO, shall be entitled
to receive an annual year-end bonus in cash in an amount of not more than fifty percent (50%) of
Base Salary as determined by the Board of Directors. At the time the Board of Directors considers
the Employee’s bonus but not less than

3

 

Exhibit 10.1

annually, the Board of Directors shall also consider an
award to the employee of stock or options to acquire stock under any stock award plan then in
effect.

          3.3 Employee shall be entitled to vacations, at such times as Employee shall reasonably
determine, of at least four weeks each year of employment hereunder.

          3.4 In addition to the foregoing, Employee shall also(i) participate in and be entitled to
receive medical insurance and other benefits substantially equivalent to the normal benefits
provided by BIODEL to its employees generally and (ii) participate in various retirement, welfare,
fringe benefit and executive perquisite plans, programs and arrangements of the Company to the
extent the senior executives of the Company generally are eligible for participation under the
terms of such plans, programs and arrangements including, without limitation, plans, programs and
arrangements for the granting of options to purchase securities of the Company or other equity
based
compensation. Employee acknowledges the right of Employer to change, amend, or terminate any of the
benefits referred to in this paragraph, at any time in a manner which does not discriminate between
Employee and other company employees who are eligible to participate in such benefits.

          3.5 Employer shall reimburse Employee for any ordinary, necessary and reasonable travel,
maintenance and entertainment expenses incurred by the Employee in the course of his duties under
this Agreement, in accordance with the Employer’s customary policies and practices in effect from
time to time, upon submission to the Employer of appropriate vouchers and receipts evidencing the
same.

4

 

Exhibit 10.1

          3.6 The Company shall pay a mandatory bonus of $250,000 (payable to Steiner Ventures) upon
(a) stockholders equity of the Company exceeding $20mm, (b) if any class of securities of the
Company are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, (b) the Company enters into stategic
partnership with an initial advance, payment or investment of $5 mm, or (d) five years from the
date of execution. Such bonus shall be paid in any event, including, without limitation, whether
or not the employeed is then employed by the Company and whether or not the employee is then
deceased.

     4. Termination. The employment of the Employee by the Company pursuant to this
Agreement shall terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following:

          4.1 Expiration of the Contract Term in accordance with Section 2;

          4.2 At the election of the Company, for cause, upon written notice by the Company to the
Employee. For the purposes of this Section 4.2, cause for termination shall be deemed to exist upon
(a) a good faith finding by the Board of Directors of the Company of (i) failure of the Employee to
perform in any material respect his assigned duties for the Company customarily associated with the
Office of Chief Executive Officer, which failure continues for ten (10) days subsequent to written
notice from the Company to the Employee of such failure, or (ii) dishonesty, gross negligence or
misconduct not involving any exercise of business judgment in good faith relating to the
performance of his duties for the Company; (b) the conviction of the Employee of, or the entry of a
pleading of guilty or nolo contendere by the Employee to, any crime involving moral turpitude or
any felony; or (c) the material breach by the Employee of any terms of

5

 

Exhibit 10.1

this Agreement, which breach
continues for ten (10) days subsequent to written notice from the Company to the Employee of the
breach;

          4.3 Upon the death or, at the election of the Company, disability of the Employee. As used
in this Agreement, the term “disability” shall mean the inability of the Employee, due to a
physical or mental disability, for a period of 180 days, whether or not consecutive, during any
360-day period to perform the services contemplated under this Agreement. A determination of
disability shall be made by a physician satisfactory to both the Employee and the Company; provided
that if the Employee and the Company do not agree on a physician, the Employee and the Company
shall each select a physician and these two together shall select a third physician, whose
determination as to disability shall be binding on all parties. Nothing herein shall be construed
to violate any Federal or
State law including the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C.S. §2601 et seq.,
and the Americans With Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C.S. §12101 et seq.

          4.4 The Company may terminate the employment of the Employee at any time without cause
immediately upon giving the Employee 30 days’ prior written notice of termination or payment in
lieu of notice. The Employee may terminate his employment at any time for good reason immediately
upon giving the Employer thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination. For the purpose of
this Section 4.4, good reason for termination shall exist upon (i) the material breach by the
Company of any terms of this Agreement which breach continues for ten (10) days subsequent to
written notice from the Employee to the Company of the breach or (ii) the assignment of the
Employee of any duties inconsistent in any material respect with the Employee’s positions with the
Company as set forth in this Agreement (including status, offices and 

6

 

Exhibit 10.1

titles), authority, duties
or responsibilities as contemplated by this Agreement or any action by the Company which results in
a material diminution in such positions, authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this
purpose any isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is
promptly remedied by the Company.

     5. Effect of Termination.

          5.1 Termination for Cause. In the event the Employee’s employment is terminated
for cause pursuant to Section 4.2, the Company shall pay to the Employee the compensation and
benefits which would otherwise be payable or accrued to him through the last day of his actual
employment by the Company.

          5.2 Termination for Death or Disability. If the Employee’s employment is
terminated by death or because of disability pursuant to Section 4.3, the Company shall pay to the
estate of the Employee or to the Employee, as the case may be, the compensation and benefits which
would otherwise be payable or accrued to the Employee through the date of his termination and an
additional six months because of death or disability. The Company will continue health benefits for
one year after the date of termination.

          5.3 Termination Without Cause. If the Employee’s employment is terminated (a) at
the election of the Company pursuant to Section 4.4 without cause, or (b) at the election of the
Employee pursuant to Section 4.4 for good reason, and in consideration of the post-termination
non-compete and non-solicitation agreement set forth in Section 6, the Company shall pay to the
Employee the compensation and benefits payable or accrued to him under Section 4 (including the
provision of medical insurance,

7

 

Exhibit 10.1

disability and life insurance), at the times provided in Section 4,
through the longer of (x) two (2) years following the termination date or (y) the balance of the
term of this Agreement.

     6. Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation.

          6.1 The Employee recognizes that his willingness to enter into the restrictive covenants
contained in this Section 6 are a critical condition precedent to the willingness of BIODEL to
enter into and perform under this Agreement. The Employee also acknowledges that the restrictions
contained in this Section 6 will not materially or unreasonably interfere with the Employee’s
ability to earn a living. The Employee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this
Section 6 are necessary to protect the
legitimate interests of BIODEL and to ensure that Employee will not reveal or use BIODEL’s
confidential, proprietary or trade secret information or unfairly compete with BIODEL after his
termination.

          6.2 During the Contract Term and, in the event the Employee’s employment is terminated for
cause pursuant to Section 4.2, through the day immediately prior to the first anniversary of the
termination date, or, if the Employee’s employment is terminated (a) at the election of the Company
pursuant to Section 4.4 without cause, or (b) at the election of the Employee pursuant to Section
4.4 for good reason, for so long as the Company shall pay to the Employee the compensation and
benefits payable or accrued to him under Section 4 (including the provision of medical insurance,
disability and life insurance), at the times provided in Section 4, the Employee will not directly
or indirectly:

8

 

Exhibit 10.1

               (a) as an individual proprietor, partner, stockholder, officer, employee, consultant,
director, joint venturer, investor, agent, distributor, dealer, representative, lender, or in any
other capacity whatsoever (other than as the holder of outstanding stock or equity of another
entity), engage in the business of delivering insulin by the oral, sublingual or injectable route
of administration; or

               (b) recruit, solicit or induce, or attempt to induce, any employee or employees of the
Company to terminate their employment with, or otherwise cease their relationship with, the
Company, or hire any such employee; or

               (c) knowingly solicit, divert, limit or take away, or attempt to divert or to take away,
the business or patronage of any of the clients, customers, dealers, distributors, representatives
or accounts, or prospective clients, customers, dealers, distributors, representatives or accounts,
of the Company which were contacted, solicited or served by employees of the Company while the
Employee was employed by the Company.

          6.3. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction determines that the duration or
the geographic scope, or both, of the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions set forth in
this Section 6 are unreasonable and that such provisions are to that extent unenforceable, the
parties hereto agree that the provisions shall remain in full force and effect for the greatest
time period and in the greatest area that would not render them unenforceable.

          6.4 The restrictions contained in this Section 6 are necessary for the protection of the
Company’s legitimate interests, confidential, proprietary or trade secret information, or goodwill;
or to protect the Company from the misuse or disclosure of its

9

 

Exhibit 10.1

confidential, proprietary or trade
secret information; or to protect the Company from unfair competition. The Employee agrees that any
breach of this Section 6 will cause the Company substantial and irreparable damage and therefore,
in the event of any such breach, in addition to such other remedies which may be available, the
Company shall have the right to seek specific performance and injunctive relief.

          6.5 The Employee agrees that the duration and geographic restrictions imposed in this
Agreement are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the Company.
To the extent any portion of this Agreement, or any portion of any provision of this Agreement, is
held to be invalid or unenforceable, it shall be revised to
reflect most nearly the parties’ intent and the remainder of the provision or provisions of this
Agreement shall be unaffected and shall continue in full force and effect.

          6.6 For purposes of this Section 6 and Section 7, the “Company” refers to the Company and
any of its affiliates.

     7. Confidential Information

          7.1. By executing this Agreement, the Employee recognizes and agrees that he is employed
in a position with the Company in which he will have access to certain confidential and proprietary
information concerning the business of the Company which is of great value to the Company and
which, if used in competition with the Company, would render great and irreparable harm to the
Company. Such information includes, but is not limited to, information relating to business
operations; services; network; systems; strategic business plans; marketing plans; long-range
goals; assets and liabilities; technical and engineering methods, processes, and/or know-how;
research and

10

 

Exhibit 10.1

development activities; products; computer software and programs; marketing data;
pricing; product designs; discoveries; inventions; budgets; projections; customers and suppliers;
development plans, strategies and forecasts; new products and services; and financial statements.
This information is provided to the Employee solely for use in the course of his employment with,
and for the benefit of, the Company.

          7.2. To ensure that such confidential information provided to the Employee is maintained
in confidence by him and not used by him to unfairly compete with the Company, the Employee shall
not, during the course of the Employee’s employment and at any time within two (2) years thereafter
following the termination of his employment (regardless of whether the Employee’s termination is
voluntary or involuntary, or with or without cause), divulge, furnish or make accessible to anyone,
or use in any way other than in furtherance of the interests of the Company: (i) any confidential,
proprietary or secret knowledge or information which the Employee has acquired or become acquainted
with, or will acquire or become acquainted with, during the course of the Employee’s employment
with the Company; (ii) any confidential or proprietary information concerning the Company’s
customers, including but not limited to, information concerning a customers need, practice or
preferences; (iii) any confidential, proprietary or trade secret research and development
activities of the Company; and (iv) any other confidential, proprietary or trade secret information
relating to the business of the Company. The Employee agrees that this restriction applies to all
such information regardless of whether such information was developed by him. This restriction
shall not apply to information (i) which is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of the
Employee, (ii) is known to the Employee at the time of its

11

 

Exhibit 10.1

disclosure as shown by his prior written
records, or (iii) is disclosed to the Employee by a third party who is under no confidential
obligation to the Company. The Employee further agrees that upon request by the Company, or upon
the termination of the Employee’s employment, the Employee will immediately return to the Company
any and all such information in the Employee’s possession or under the Employee’s control.

     8. Representations and Warranties of the Employee. The Employee represents and
warrants to the Company as follows:

          8.1. All facts concerning the Employee’s background, education, experience and employment
history as described to the Company in writing are true and correct;

          8.2 The Employee’s execution of this Agreement and employment with the Company does not
and will not conflict with any obligations that the Employee has to any current or former employer,
any other individual, corporation, partnership, association, trust or any other entity or
organization, including any instrumentality of government;

          8.3 All files, records, compilations, reports, studies, manuals, memoranda, notebooks,
documents, financial reports and statements, correspondence, and other confidential information

copies thereof, are, and shall remain, the exclusive property of the Company, and shall be
delivered to the Company as soon as reasonably practicable and at the expense of the Company in the
event of the Employee’s termination or at any other time if requested by the Company.

12

employee of Employer, except Employer shall not be obligated to indemnify or hold Employee harmless
against any claim or liability which arises out of Employee’s bad faith or intentional misconduct.

     10. Property Rights. With respect to information, inventions and discoveries
developed, made or conceived of by Employee, either alone or with others, at any time during
Employee’s employment by the Company and whether or not within working hours, arising out of such
employment or pertinent to any field of business or research in which, during such employment, the
Company is engaged or (if such is known to or ascertainable by Employee) is considering engaging,
Employee agrees:

          10.4 that Employee hereby waives and releases any and all rights Employee may have in and

Exhibit 10.1

APPENDIX A

     For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred, if any one
of the following events occurs:

(a) the acquisition by any person or group of beneficial ownership of more than
50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, or, if there are
then outstanding any other voting securities of the Company, such acquisition
of more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors, except for any of the following acquisitions of beneficial ownership
of Common Stock or other voting securities of the Company: (i) by the Company
or any Employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the
Company or any entity controlled by the Company; (ii) by Solomon S. Steiner; or
(iii) by any person or entity during the lifetime Solomon S. Steiner if the
shares acquired were beneficially owned by Solomon S. Steiner immediately prior
to their acquisition and the acquisition is a transfer to a trust, partnership,
corporation or other entity in which Solomon S. Steiner owns a majority of the
beneficial interests;

(b) the Company sells all or substantially all of its assets (or consummates
any transaction having a similar effect) or the Company merges or consolidates
with another entity or completes a reorganization unless the holders of the
voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the
transaction own immediately after the transaction in approximately the same
proportions 50% or more of the combined voting power of the voting securities
of the entity purchasing the assets or surviving the merger or consolidation or
the voting securities of its parent company, or, in the case of a
reorganization, 50% or more of the combined voting power of the voting
securities of the Company; Notwithstanding the foregoing, any purchase or
redemption of outstanding shares of Common Stock or other voting securities by
the Company resulting in an increase in the percentage of outstanding shares or
other voting securities beneficially owned by any person or group shall be
deemed to constitute a reorganization; however, no increase in the percentage
of outstanding shares or other voting securities beneficially owned by Solomon
S. Steiner or any person or entities referred to in (a)(i) or (iii) above
resulting from any redemption of shares or other voting securities by the
Company shall result in a Change of Control;

(c) the Company is liquidated; or

(d) the Board (if the Company continues to own its business) or the

18

 

Exhibit 10.1

board of
directors or comparable governing body of any successor owner of its business
(as a result of a transaction which is not itself a Change of Control) consists
of a majority of directors or members who are not Incumbent Directors. For
purposes of this Agreement, (A) “voting securities” means securities whose
holders are entitled to vote in the election of all or a majority of the
authorized number of directors at the time the determination of ‘voting
securities” status is being made and (B) 50% or more of the combined voting
power shall refer to the voting power to elect a majority of the authorized
number of directors determined at that time. “Voting securities” shall not
include preferred stock or other securities whose holders are entitled to vote
in the election of all or a majority of the authorized number of directors upon
the occurrence of some event or circumstance which has not occurred and such
rights to vote are not in effect at the time of the determination of “voting
securities” status. Preferred stock and other securities whose holders are then
entitled to vote for less than a majority of the authorized number of
directors, shall not be considered “voting securities.”
