  is made and entered into effective as of the 27th day of November, 2006 (the
  "Effective Date"), between the Borrower and the Lender.

WHEREAS:

A.            
  The Borrower and the Lender entered into the Loan Agreement whereby the Lender
  agreed to loan $250,000 to the Borrower (the “Loan”).

B.            
  The Lender has agreed to extend the term of the Loan to April 11, 2007 on the
  terms and conditions set out herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises
contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties
agree to amend the terms of the Loan Agreement as follows:

	1. 	
      Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this
      Agreement shall have the same meaning as specified in the Loan Agreement
      unless the context clearly indicates the contrary.

	 	 	 
	2. 	
      Amendment. The Loan Agreement is hereby amended as
      follows:

	 	 	 
		(i) 	
      The term “Maturity Date” is replaced in its entirety with
      the following:

	 	 	 
			
      “Maturity Date” means April 11, 2007;

	 	 	 
		(ii) 	
      Section 2.1 of the Loan Agreement is replaced in its
      entirety with the following:

“2.1 “Loan and Repayment. The
Lender hereby agrees to lend to the Borrower the Principal Sum of $250,000
(U.S.). The Loan shall be made in United States currency and shall be repaid by
the Borrower on or before April 11, 2007.”

	 	(iii) 	
      Section 7.1 of the Loan Agreement is replaced in its
      entirety with the following:

	 	 	 
	 		
      “7.1 The Lender may at its option, at any time prior to
      April 11, 2007, convert all or any portion of the Principal Sum into that
      number of fully-paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the
      Borrower (the “Conversion Shares”) as shall be equal to the Principal Sum
      at a conversion rate which shall be the lesser of $0.30 U.S. per share or
      the closing price of the Borrower’s shares on the Over-the-Counter
      Bulletin Board on the business day preceding the date that the Borrower
      provides notice of conversion to the Borrower (the “Notice of
      Conversion”). Upon receipt of the Notice of Conversion, the Borrower shall
      issue for no additional consideration one half of a share purchase warrant
      (each a “Warrant”) for each Conversion Share issued by the Borrower to the
      Lender. Each whole Warrant shall entitle the Lender to purchase one
      additional share of the Borrower’s common stock for a period of one year
      from the date of issuance, at a price of $0.40 per
  share.”

	 	(iv) 	
      The Promissory Note evidencing the Loan Agreement is
      hereby replaced in its entirety with the Promissory Note attached hereto
      as Schedule “A” to this Agreement.

	3. 	
      No Other Modification. The parties confirm that
      the terms, covenants and conditions of the Assignment Agreement remain
      unchanged and in full force and effect, except as modified by this
      Agreement.

2

	4. 	
      Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
      two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but
      all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument,
      and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed
      by each party hereto and delivered to the other parties.

	 	 
	5. 	
      Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise
      expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the
      benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors
      and administrators of the parties hereto.

	 	 
	6.

      Shareholder
      Rights

     

    Prior

      to
      all shareholder rights except the right to sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise

      with respect to restricted shares will be held by the Company in a tax deferred
      account until release of restrictions. Interest will be credited to the account
      quarterly on the full amount in the account until the account is distributed.
      Interest shall be calculated at a rate equal to the average of the daily close
      of business prime rates for the quarter, as such prime rates are established
      by
      JPMorgan Chase, or such other bank as may be designated by the Corporate
      Governance and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company
      (the “Committee”). On the date on which restrictions are released, or as soon as
      practicable thereafter, all dividends and interest, if any, accrued to that
      date
      with respect to the shares on which the restrictions are released will be
      payable to Recipient. In the event that the restrictions are not released and
      the award is forfeited pursuant to Paragraph 4 above, Recipient shall not be
      entitled to receive any dividends and interest which may have accrued with
      respect to the shares so forfeited, unless approved by the Committee or the
      entire Board.

      Other

    

    
      	 	
              The
                Company reserves the right, as determined by the Committee, to convert
                this Award to a substantially equivalent award and to make any other
                modification it may consider necessary or advisable to comply with
                any law
                or regulation. In addition, this Agreement shall be governed by the
                laws
                of the State of Missouri with reference to the conflict of laws provisions
                therein.

      individuals who shall qualify as Continuing Directors shall have ceased for
      any
      reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors of Ralcorp.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change-in-Control shall not include a
      transaction (commonly known as a “Morris Trust” transaction) pursuant to which a
      third party acquires one or more businesses of the Company by acquiring all
      of
      the common stock of the Company while leaving the Company’s remaining businesses
      in a separate public company, unless the businesses so acquired constitute

    c.    
      “Termination
      for Cause” shall mean the Recipient’s termination of employment with the Company
      because of the willful engaging by the Recipient in gross misconduct; provided,
      however, that a termination for cause shall not include termination attributable
      to (i) poor work performance, bad judgment or negligence on the part of the
      Recipient, (ii) an act or omission believed by the Recipient in good faith
      to
      have been in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company and reasonably
      believed by the Recipient to be lawful, or (iii) the good faith conduct of
      the
      Recipient in connection with a Change in Control (including opposition to or
      support of such Change in Control).
