A description of the ownership of the Sellers’ Stocks is herein attached as Annex 1.01.

ARTICLE 1.02. Purchase Price.

(a) The total purchase price of the Stocks (the “Purchase Price”) shall be TWENTY MILLION
FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND US DOLLARS (US$20,500,000) which shall be paid and adjusted as follows:

     (i) upon the Closing Date the Purchasers shall pay to the Sellers the sum of EIGHT MILLION TWO
HUNDRED SEVENTY ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED FIFTY FIVE DOLLARS AND THIRTY THREE CENTS
(US$8,271,255.33) of the Purchase Price (the “Payment upon closing”), plus more or less the
Payment upon closing Adjustment (pursuant to the provisions of Articles 1.03 (d), 1.03(g) and 1.03
(h)). The Payment upon closing shall be paid on the Closing Date by wire transfer to the Sellers’
accounts overseas which are detailed in Annex 1.02(a)(i) (such accounts being referred to
hereinafter the “Sellers’ Bank Accounts”);

     (ii) upon the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchasers shall pay the Sellers
altogether in the Sellers Bank Accounts (or in those other accounts overseas which the Sellers may
have notified in writing to the Purchasers no less than 10 days before the maturity date), the
amount of SIX MILLION US DOLLARS (US$6,000,000) of the Purchase Price, taking away the amounts
corresponding to the Consented Deductions from the Purchase Price, which discount the First Price
Balance, and the Controverted Balance which should be paid in the Guarantee Account pursuant to the
provisions of Article 5.04 (i) (the “First Price Balance”). The First Price Balance shall
be paid by wire transfer to the Sellers Bank Accounts (or to those other overseas accounts which
the Sellers may have notified in writing to the Purchasers no less than 10 days before the maturity
date) in the same percentages applicable to the Payment on Closing.

     (iii) Upon the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchasers shall pay the Sellers
altogether in the Sellers Bank Accounts (or in those other overseas accounts which the Sellers may
have notified in writing to the Purchasers no less than 10 days before the maturity date), the sum
of SIX MILLION TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY EIGHT THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND FORTY FOUR US DOLLARS SIXTY SEVEN CENTS (US$6,228,744.67) of the
Purchase Price, taking away (x) the amounts corresponding to Consented Deductions from the Purchase
Price which discount the First

 

 

Price Balance, (y) the Controverted Balance which should be paid in
the Guarantee Account pursuant to the provisions of Article 5.04 (i), and (z) the Guarantee Deposit
(the “Final Price Balance” and, together with the First Price Balance, the “Price
Balance”). The Final Price Balance shall be paid by wire transfer to the Sellers Bank Accounts
(or to those other overseas accounts which the Sellers may have notified in writing to the
Purchasers no less than 10 days before the maturity date) in the same percentages applicable to the
Payment on Closing.

(b) The Price Balance shall accrue an interest at a LIBOR rate plus two (2) percent per year
calculated on the balances as of the payment date (the “interests”).

(c) The amounts which should be deducted as Damages or Recoverable Liabilities shall accrue an
annual interest of eight percent (8%) from the date in which the Purchasers would have paid such
Damages or Recoverable Liabilities until they are deducted from the First Price Balance and/or the
Final Price Balance and/or were reimbursed after those payment dates by the Sellers, depending on
the moment in which the Purchasers would have paid them, and before the fulfillment of the
proceedings set forth in Article 5.04. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sellers may cancel the
amounts resulting from the Damages or Recoverable Liabilities at any time from the date of their
occurrence, and for such purpose the Purchasers shall notify them pursuant to the proceedings set
forth in Article 5.04.

(d) The First Price Balance and/or the Final Price Balance adjusted pursuant to the provisions set
forth in Article 1.02 (a)(ii) and 1.02 (a)(iii), respectively, plus the Interests on such paid-up
amounts shall be in favor of the Sellers and it shall be hereinafter called the “Adjusted
Balance”. Should the Adjusted Balance be negative and the Sellers were to refund amounts of
money to the Purchasers, the Sellers shall pay the difference to the Purchasers within the fifth
(5) Business Day from the Sellers’ approval of the Price Balance Liquidation. Should the Price
Balance Liquidation sent to the Purchasers be negative and the Sellers object to such liquidation,
the Sellers shall deposit the Controverted Balance pursuant to the provisions of Article 5.04.

(e) In order to avoid misinterpretations of this Article, the obligation of the Purchasers to pay
the Price Balance to the Sellers (i) shall be reduced on a Dollar for Dollar basis, without
duplication, for the amount of any Damages or Recoverable Liabilities, after the fulfillment of the
proceedings set forth in Article 5.04; and (ii) shall be satisfied for the Sellers by the

 

 

payment
on the part of the Purchasers of the Adjusted Balance into the Sellers Bank Accounts on the
corresponding payment date or; if applicable, by the payment of the Consented Balance into the
Sellers Bank Accounts on the corresponding payment date and the Objected Balance into the Guarantee
Account on the corresponding payment date, also making clear that if on the corresponding payment
date the (x) totality of the First Price Balance and/or Final Price Balance had been cancelled
because of the deduction of Damages or Recoverable Liabilities; or (y) the totality of the First
Price Balance and/or the Final Price Balance was subjected to Withholdings for Damages or
Recoverable Liabilities, the Purchasers shall not be obliged to pay any sum whatsoever as First
Price Balance and/or Final Price Balance to the Sellers on the corresponding payment date, but they
shall pay the withheld amounts pursuant to the provisions of the following Article and the
procedure set forth in Article 5.04.

(f) Pursuant to the provisions of Article 5.04, the Purchasers shall be entitled to deduct or
withhold from the Price Balance and, if applicable, from any other amounts which the Purchasers may
owe to the Sellers under this Offer or any other agreement entered into by and between the Sellers
and the Purchasers or the Company, an amount equal to any Damages or Recoverable Liabilities
claimed pursuant to the provisions of Section V and collected from the Price Balance, any Damages
or Recoverable Liabilities which should be cancelled pursuant to the provisions of this Offer (the
“Withholdings” or “Withholding”, indistinctively). It is herein made clear that,
pursuant to the procedure set forth in Article 5.04 the Withholding may be made even when the
Damages or Recoverable Liabilities are not enforceable, to the extent that there is an
extrajudicial, judicial and/or administrative claim with respect to such Damages or Recoverable
Liabilities. Pursuant to the procedure set forth in Article 5.04, the Purchasers shall be entitled,
in such case, to withhold an amount equivalent to capital, interests and costs estimated in good
faith.

(g) INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.

(h) Should the Purchasers deduct from the First Price Balance and/or from the Final Price Balance
amounts corresponding to Damages or Recoverable Liabilities (with the scope given
to such terms by Article 5.02) including interests pursuant to Paragraph (c) of this Article1.02,
such deduction shall be charged in the first place to the accrued Interests as of the deduction
date, and then to the capital of the First Price Balance and/or the Final Price Balance, as the
case may be. It is herein understood and agreed that the discounts and/or

 

 

adjustments corresponding
to Damages or Recoverable Liabilities occurred between the Closing Date and the payment of the
First Price Balance, and which may be determined and paid by the Purchasers and/or the Company
between such dates, shall accrue interests only until the payment date of the Final Price Balance.
Should the Purchasers fail to execute the withholding upon payment of the First Price Balance, they
may do it on the payment date of the Final Price Balance, considering that the amounts which the
Purchasers could have withheld shall not accrue interests for the time passed between the payment
dates of the First Price Balance and the Final Price Balance.

(i) The Parties herein agree that all amounts originally stated in Pesos which have to be paid by
the Sellers to the Purchasers or deducted or compensated by the Purchasers pursuant to the
provisions of this Offer shall be paid and/or compensated in Dollars. To such purpose, the amount
in Pesos in question shall be converted into Dollars applying the Pesos to Dollars sell exchange
rate of the Banco de la Nación Argentina, at 11 o’clock Buenos Aires time of the Business Day
immediately prior to that in which the payment or the corresponding compensation should be made
effective.

(j) The Purchase Price, adjusted pursuant to the provisions of this Article, should be fully
transferred in favor of the Sellers, being the possible commissions and wire transfer expenses
shall be afforded by the Purchasers, making, if applicable, the corresponding grossing up in order
that the Price, adjusted pursuant to the provisions of his Article, be credited into the Sellers
Bank Accounts net of any other discount. The grossing up established in this clause does not
include (i) the payment by the Purchasers of any Tax which should be afforded by the Sellers
resulting or arising from this Offer, and (ii) all those major costs and/or expenses arising from
changes made by the Sellers to the Sellers Bank Accounts where the Purchasers must pay the Purchase
Price, which shall be afforded by the Sellers.

(k) The default in payment of the First Price Balance and/or Final Price Balance shall commence
automatically by the maturity of the terms agreed, without judicial and/or extrajudicial demand
whatsoever. In case of default in payment of the First Price Balance, the total Price Balance shall
be enforceable and the terms agreed shall elapse. In no case shall the
Purchasers be considered in default if the Purchasers have paid the Consented Balance in the
Sellers Bank Accounts, and the Controverted Balance of the Guarantee Account on the respective
payment date, despite the result of the arbitration award set forth in Article 6.02

 

 

(a). As from
the default in payment of the First Price Balance and/or the Final Price Balance, default interests
shall be charged at an annual rate of 16% on the pending balance.

(l) The Purchasers herein jointly and severally undertake the payment of the Purchase Price in
favor of the Sellers, expressly waiving the right to require the division of the debt among these
and each of them undertake full responsibility to the Sellers for the totality of the Purchase
Price.

(m) The Parties herein state that the agreed obligation of payment in US DOLLARS BILLS is an
essential condition for this Offer. Consequently, the Purchasers herein expressly state and
acknowledge that: a) they have undertaken an obligation of payment to be satisfied in US DOLLARS
BILLS; b) the legislation in force on the date of the execution of this Offer allows the agreement
to pay debts in foreign currency; c) they have received proper legal counseling regarding the
legislation in force and their commitment to fulfill the payments in US DOLLARS BILLS. d) they
irrevocably waive to resort to the defense of excessive cost of the obligations undertaken by them
whatsoever the occurrence may be and, consequently, waive the right to invoke to the teoría de la
imprevisión [doctrine of improvidence], abusive exercise of rights and to file any action
whatsoever based on sections 1071, 1198, 954 and related sections of the Código Civil [Civil Code]
in order to justify the non-fulfillment of their obligation to pay or intent to reduce it; e) no
matter what regulation may be issued in the future, they acknowledge that the obligation to pay
agreed under this contract shall remain unaltered until its complete satisfaction. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in case upon the maturity date of any of the obligations to pay, the payment in the
agreed currency should be illegal, prohibited or impossible, the Sellers may at their own option:
a) request the pesos or the currency which should replace them in the necessary and sufficient
quantity to buy — free from expenses, taxes or commissions — the corresponding amount of US
dollars in Montevideo, New York or Zurich financial markets; b) request the delivery of Government
Securities of the Argentine Republic in sufficient quantity to be negotiated in the overseas market
they may choose.

     The Annex 1.02 hereof includes a description of the Purchase Price distribution among each of
the Sellers and the description of the Stocks acquired by each of the Purchasers.

ARTICLE 1.03. Payment upon closing Adjustment.

 

 

(a) Upon the Closing Date, the total amount of the banking debt which the Company has with Banco
Comafi S.A. and Banco de Galicia y Buenos Aires .S.A, including the balance of the Galicia Rural
card, amounts to Fourteen Million Five Hundred Seventy Two Thousand Thirty One Pesos and Seventy
Cents ($14,572,031.79). Such liabilities (which are identified in detail below) do neither adjust
nor reduce the Purchase Price to the extent that, as a whole, they do not exceed the equivalent to
three million five hundred thousand Dollars (US$3,500,000) (the “Maximum Amount of Assumed
Banking Liabilities”). The amounts exceeding the Maximum Assumed Banking Liabilities Amount,
including to such effects capital, interests, fines and every concept in general derived from such
debts, adjust and reduce the Payment upon closing in the exceeded amount (the “Adjustment for
Excess of the Maximum Amount of Assumed Banking Liabilities”). The banking liabilities assumed
up to the Maximum Assumed Banking Liabilities Amount are the following (the “Assumed Banking
Liabilities”): (i) unsecured loans with Banco Galicia y Buenos Aires S.A., dated
27th April, 2010, for an amount of $8,000,000 of capital at an annual nominal fixed rate
of 15%, due on 24th October, 2010; (ii) overdraft agreement in checking account in
Argentine pesos with Banco Comafi S.A., dated 26th April, 2010, for a capital of
$5,0000,000 at an annual nominal fixed rate of 15%, due on 23rd September, 2010; and
(iii) overdraft agreement in checking account in Argentine pesos with Banco Comafi S.A., dated
28th May, 2010, for a $150,000 of capital at an annual nominal fixed rate of 15%, due
on 28th September, 2010.

(b) On 1st August, 2009, the Company assigned to Adeco Agropecuaria S.A. the Company’s
employees listed in Annex 1.03 (b) (the “Assigned Employees”). The Parties herein agree
that part of the compensation costs of the Assigned Employees calculated as of 31st
July, 2010, adjusts and reduces the Payment upon Closing to the amount of Twenty Six Thousand Five
Hundred Eleven and Sixty Seven Cents (US$26,511.67) (the “Adjustment for Compensation
Costs”). The description of the calculation of the Adjustment for the Compensation Costs is
herein attached as Annex 1.03 (b)(1). It is herein understood and agreed that the rest of the
compensation costs of the Assigned Employees, regardless their amount, shall be paid exclusively by the Purchasers when deciding the termination of the
relationship with the Assigned Employees, pursuant to the provisions of Article 4.02 (d).

(c) The Company has prepared a balance sheet closed as of 30th June, 2010 (the
“2009/10 Balance Sheet”). A copy of the 2009/10 Balance Sheet is herein attached as Annex
1.03 (c).

 

 

(d) The Deducted Liabilities adjust and reduce the Closing Price in the total amount of Four
Hundred Eighty Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars and Three Cents (US$483,500.03). The description
of the Deducted Liabilities is herein attached as Annex 1.03 (d), indicating the reason why and
amount which they discount the Payment upon Closing.

(e) The Deducted Liabilities are deemed to be cancelled by the Sellers on the Closing Date.
Consequently, the Deducted Liabilities may neither be considered in the future Damages or
Recoverable Liabilities pursuant to the provisions of Article 5.04 nor deducted either from the
First Price Balance or from the Final Price Balance, to the following extent: (1) With respect to
the Assumed Banking Liabilities and the totality of the current and non-current liabilities
mentioned in the 2009-10 Balance Sheet (except for those referred to in point 3 below), their
management and cancellation shall be in charge of the Purchasers as of the Closing Date, so those
shall be responsible for the cancellation of such liabilities on their respective due dates, in a
way that their amounts do not increase or accrue additional interests and/or fines. The Sellers
shall not be responsible for the increases, greater amounts, interests, fines or additional sums
which may recharge said liabilities for their dissatisfaction on their respective due dates by the
Purchasers. (2) With respect to the Adjustment for Compensation Costs, the provisions of Article
4.02 (d) shall be applied. (3) With respect to the following Deducted Liabilities: “Petrobras
Energía”, “Provincia de Corrientes Debt”, “Labor Lawsuits”, their management and cancellation as
from the Closing Date continue to be in charge of the Sellers themselves and/or through the
attorneys they appoint. Consequently, the Sellers shall be responsible for any amount which must be
paid in excess of those indicated in Annex 1.03 (e). In this case, the Sellers shall notify the
Purchasers personally or through their attorneys, not less than 10 (ten) days prior to the date
when the corresponding liabilities should be satisfied in order that the Purchasers deliver in due
time and proper form the amounts up to the total provided by Annex 1.03(e). (4) The Sellers shall
be responsible for any cost, expense, reasonable attorney fees and in general any amount in excess
of the mentioned in Annex 1.03 (d) which must be paid for the causes and items which integrate the
Deducted Liabilities after the Closing Date, as long as this occurs for causes different from the ones
mentioned in item (1) of this Article.

(f) It is herein understood and agreed that the inclusion by the Sellers of the Deducted
Liabilities in the statements and warranties made by them in this Offer is made only to the

 

 

effect
of reporting the existence and composition of such Deducted Liabilities, even when they are
cancelled by the causes and for the amount indicated in Annex 1.03 (d) on the closing date by the
Payment upon Closing adjustment. Besides, it is herein understood that every obligation,
liabilities and/or contingencies that have been denounced, disclosed and/or reported by the Sellers
to the Purchasers in this Offer, its annexes, certifications and any other document incorporated to
this Offer, which are not expressly part of the Deducted Liabilities (as listed in Annex 1.03 (d)),
have been neither assumed by the Purchasers nor deducted from the Purchase Price and, should they
come to be after the Closing Date they shall give rise to the indemnity obligation established in
Article 5.02 on the part of the Sellers (the “Reported Liabilities”).

(g) The following items adjust and increase the Payment upon Closing to One Hundred Twelve Thousand
Two Hundred Forty Four Dollars with Sixty Nine Cents (US$112,244.69): (i) the item “Cash and Banks”
of the 2009/10 Balance Sheet; (ii) the pending amounts included in the “Sales Credits” item of the
2009/10 Balance Sheet, the considerations for which have been fulfilled by the Company before the
30th June, 2010, or whose periods to be collected by the Company are due on or before
the 30th June, 2010 (the description of the amounts of said items and their
corresponding agreements, which adjust and increase the Payment upon Closing are herein attached as
Annex 1.03 (g)(1)); (iii) the sub-items “Miscellaneous” and “Vendors Advance Payments” of item
“Other Credits” of the 2009/10 Balance Sheet; and (iv) the fixed assets listed in Annex 1.03
(g)(2).

(h) The amounts mentioned in (d) and (g) are defined as “Payment upon Closing Adjustment”,
which calculation is detailed in Annex 1.03 (b).

ARTICLE 1.04. Tax Credits.

     As of the Closing Date, the Company becomes the holder of the tax credits detailed in the
2009/10 Balance Sheet, which in turn are detailed in Annex 1.04 (the “Tax Credits”).

     The Sellers herein grant the Purchasers the existence, validity, effectiveness and amounts of
the Tax Credits. Should any or all of the Tax Credits not exist, or exist but for amounts different
from the ones indicated in Annex 1.04, they shall be deemed Damages or Recoverable Liabilities
subject to the indemnity obligation of the Sellers set forth in Article 5.02.

 

 

ARTICLE 1.05. Fees and expenses afforded by the Sellers.

     The Sellers herein agree to pay the Purchasers all the expenses and reasonable attorney fees
which the Purchasers must pay as a consequence of the judicial and/or extrajudicial claims made by
the Company derived from the indemnity obligation of the Sellers under this Offer, within five (5)
Business Days as from the date in which such expenses and fees are to be paid by the Company, as
long as the proceedings set forth in Article 5.04 were previously followed by the Purchasers.

     Should the expenses and/or fees not be paid by the Sellers to the Purchasers in the
established term, their amounts shall accrue LIBOR interests plus an annual eight (8) percent
calculated from the date the Purchasers would have paid them until the date in which the Purchasers
discount them from the First Price Balance, the Final Price Balance, and/or are reimbursed by the
Sellers after such payment dates, as the case may be.

ARTICLE 1.06. Fixed Assets Excluded.

     The Company fixed assets detailed in Annex 1.06 (the “Fixed Assets Excluded”) shall be
transferred without charge in favor of those appointed by the Sellers. The Sellers shall afford all
the costs derived from such transfers.

     The Purchasers and the Company shall take all the reasonable actions in order to transfer the
Fixed Assets Excluded.

ARTICLE 1.07. Notification and Effects of the SCI Resolution.

     The Parties shall notify the CNDC [National Commission for the Defense of Competition] all the
transactions established herein, pursuant to the provisions of Article 1.07 (a) and 1.07 (b).

without errors, misrepresentations or omissions, before the CNDC of the Form F-1 and/or any other

fulfill the terms established by Law 25.156 and its amendments, and by the CNDC regulations. When

ARTICLE .108. Assignment of Rights. Sales Agency.

(a) The Parties herein expressly acknowledge and agree that in case that the SCI and/or the CNDC
notify the Parties the refusal to give the CNDC Authorization or its subjection to any restriction

participations. As a condition
for its validity and effectiveness, the assignment of the rights granted by this Offer to a third
