         for breach under sub-paragraph 7(d), the Corporation will also pay your
         Annual Bonus on a prorated basis and, to the extent that any stock
         options referenced in paragraph 6 have vested, they will continue to be
         exercisable in accordance with the said Stock Option Agreement.

         entitlement, notice of termination or pay in lieu thereof, salary,
         bonuses, automobile allowances, vacation and/or vacation pay and other

    base salary rate in effect at the time of termination in the form of
    salary continuation (39 pay cycles) with the exception of termination for
    cause or voluntary termination (such severance payment referred to herein
    as the "Severance"). The release agreement will be full and final; the
    duration of the non-compete will be equal to the duration of the
    severance/salary continuation, i.e., 18 months and will be limited in
    scope to the organic products industry.

<PAGE>

CONDITIONS:

TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE: HOH will have the right to terminate employment
at any time without 'cause'. In such event, contingent upon the execution of
a release and non-compete agreement, HOH agrees to pay the Severance and the
pro rata portion of your bonus from January 1st of the year in which the
termination occurred to the termination date based upon year end plan
achievement, paid out at the same time as other bonus plan participants.

VOLUNTARY TERMINATION: You may voluntarily terminate employment at any time,
after which no further compensation shall be paid, nor will there be any
entitlement to Severance. However, HOH agrees to pay, at the same time as
other bonus plan participants, your bonus on a prorated basis based upon
year-end plan achievement. Should you decide to voluntarily terminate
employment with HOH, you agree to give at least 30 days notice of resignation.

In the event of a Change of Control of HOH or significant change in
responsibilities, you will have the right to receive the Severance upon your
voluntary termination.

TERMINATION FOR CAUSE: HOH will have the right to terminate for 'cause' if a
written notification has been given and curative solution has not been
reached within 15 days of notification. For these purposes, 'cause' shall be
found to exist if you have been convicted of a felony, committed an act
involving the misappropriation of funds of HOH or any other act which in the
reasonable judgement of HOH is deliberately intended to bring harm or injury
to the business or property of HOH. In the event of termination for cause,
there will be no further compensation, bonus, or severance compensation. You
will be entitled to all compensation, benefits and unreimbursed expenses
accrued through the date of termination.

COMPANY POLICIES: Throughout your employment, you will be expected to abide
by all of the company's policies, procedures and code of conduct.

This offer is contingent upon your ability to provide Horizon Organic Dairy
the necessary I-9 information documenting your right to work in the U.S.A.

Chuck, we are very excited about your joining our team and are looking
forward to working with you. We are confident that you will make a
significant contribution to our business. Welcome to Horizon Organic Dairy!
