accordance with its terms.

      10.2 Entire  Agreement.  This Agreement  constitutes the entire  agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all

interpretation of any of its provisions.

      10.7 Severability. In the event that any provision hereof is found invalid
or unenforceable  pursuant to a final judicial decree or decision, the remainder
of this Agreement will remain valid and  enforceable  according to its terms. In
the event of such partial  invalidity,  the parties  shall seek in good faith to
agree on replacing any such legally invalid provisions with

                                       8

provisions which, in effect, will most nearly and fairly approach the effect of
the invalid provisions.

       with the  termination  provisions set out in clause 6 of the UBSN Licence
       and subject always to clause 2.7, they will not agree to terminate and/or
       terminate the UBSN Licence.

2.7    Notwithstanding  clause 2.6, UBI further  undertakes to SN that if at any
       time during the Terms:

                                       5

       2.7.1  UBSN ceases to be a  subsidiary  of UBI (except as a result of the
              admission of the whole or any class of the issued share capital of
              UBSN to the  Official  List of the  London  Stock  Exchange  or to
              trading on the Alternative  Investment  Market of the London Stock
              Exchange  or to  any  other  recognized  investment  exchange  (as
              defined in section 207 of the Financial Services Act 1986); or

       2.7.2  the UBSN Licence terminate for any reason,

       UBI  will  simultaneously  enter  into as  brewing  agreement  with SN in
       identical  terms to this  Agreement  save  that the term of such  brewing
       agreement  shall be the  unexpired  Term as the date UBSN  ceases to be a
       subsidiary of UBI or the date upon which the UBSN Licence  terminates (as
       the case may be).

2.8    If, for any reason, UBSM or UBI (as the case may be) fails to comply with
       the terms of clauses 2.3,  2.4,  2.5, 2.6 or 2.7, SN shall have the right
       to terminate this Agreement forthwith by notice to UBI and UBSN.

2.9    With effect from the date of this  Agreement,  the Original UBSN Licence,
       the  Sub-Licence,  the Joint Venture  Agreement and the Letter  Agreement
       shall terminate.

3.     SUPPLY OF KINGFISHER PRODUCTS TO UBSN

3.1    Subject to clause 3.9, SN agrees with UBSN to supply Kingfisher  Products
       brewed by SN for delivery  (at UBSN's  costs) to UBSN (or such persons as
       UBSN may direct) to destinations within the United Kingdom in response to
       orders from UBSN which are  accepted by SN in  accordance  with the order
       and the terms of this Agreement PROVIDED THAT:

       3.1.1  SN shall  not be  required  to brew or supply  draught  Kingfisher
              Products for sale or re-sale outside the United Kingdom; and

       3.1.2  If SN is asked by UBSN to brew or  supply  non-draught  Kingfisher
              Products  for sale or re-sale  outside  the United  Kingdom,  UBSN
              shall be  responsible,  and pay SN,  inter  alia,  for any and all
              additional   costs  of  labeling  and  packaging  such  Kingfisher
              Products.

3.2    UBSN shall  provide to SN on a monthly  basis a rolling  forecast  of its
       requirements  of  Kingfisher  Products for the  following  three  months.
       Forecasts  made in respect of any month may not  thereafter be revised by
       more than 15% in either  direction and notice of any revision within such
       percentage  must be received  by SN at least 20 Business  Days before the
       commencement of the month in respect of which the forecast has been made.
       SN shall,  provided  that UBSN  returns a  sufficient  number of casks to
       enable it to do so,  accept  orders  for  Kingfisher  Products  from UBSN
       placed in respect of a month  which are

                                       6
<PAGE>

       within  UBSN's  forecast of that month and may,  but shall not be obliged
       to, accept any order for Kingfisher Products which is in excess of UBSN's
       forecast for that month.

3.3    The  prices  payable  by UBSN for  Kingfisher  Products  brewed  by SN an
       delivered to UBSN during the first Year shall be the base prices  ex-duty
       set out in Schedule 3 plus, in respect of each Year  (including the First
       Year),  the cost of  transportation  from  the  Brewery  to the  place of
       delivery,  all insurance  costs,  the applicable price premium set out in
       Part II of Schedule  3, all  applicable  sales  taxes and all  applicable
       excise and other duties  (including  without  limitation,  United Kingdom
       excise duty) at the applicable rate.

3.4    UBSN shall itself be responsible  for paying to the relevant  authorities
       any sales taxes,  duties or customers  changes in relation to  Kingfisher
       Products destined for export.

3.5    The prices for any other  Kingfisher  Products shall be as agreed between
       SN an UBSN.

3.6    In relation  to each  subsequent  Year after the first Year,  SN shall be
       entitled  to  propose  to  UBSN an  increase,  to take  effect  from  the
       beginning  of such Year,  in the  ex-duty  prices  set out in  Schedule 3
       charged by it to UBSN for each  Kingfisher  Product  by an amount  which,
       expressed  as  a  percentage  of  the  price  of  such  Product  for  the
       immediately  preceding Year, is equal to the percentage  increase in SN's
       material and  non-material  costs of production per Barrel of the Product
       in question (including,  for the avoidance of doubt, wages, utilities and
       other  production  costs  attributable  to the  production  of Kingfisher
       Products).  Proposed price  increases shall be notified by SN to UBSN not
       later than lst December  1998 and lst December in each  subsequent  Year.
       Proposed price increases once notified to UBSN shall be discussed between
       UBSN and SN with a view to agreement of the same.  If the proposed  price
       increases  are agreed by UBSN,  the  increased  prices  shall  apply with
       effect from the  commencement  of the next following Year. If, at the end
       of any Year, SN discovers that there has been an overall  decrease in its
       material  and  non-material   costs  of  production  per  Barrel  of  any
       Kingfisher  Product in that Year,  SN shall notify UBSN within 30 days of
       becoming  aware of such  fact and  UBSN  and SN  shall  discuss  how such
       decrease  should be reflected in the price charged by SN to UBSN for such
       Kingfisher Product for the next following Year.

3.7    If any price increase  proposed by SN under clause 3.6 in relation to any
       Year (a "Disputed Year") is not agreed by UBSN by the commencement of the
       Disputed Year, SN shall be entitled with effect from the  commencement of
       such Year to  increase  the prices  charged by it to UBSN for  Kingfisher
       Products by an amount which  (expressed  as a  percentage  of the ex-duty
       price for the Year in question) is equal to the RPI Percentage calculated
       by reference to the level of the Retail  Prices Index for October (or, if
       not yet published,  the most

                                       7
<PAGE>

       recently published Retail Prices Index) in the Year immediately preceding
       the Disputed Year. In addition, SN shall have the right to terminate this
       Agreement by twelve  months' notice to UBI and UBSN served within 30 days
       of the commencement of the Disputed Year.

3.8    SN shall issue  invoices to UBSN and UBSN shall pay such invoices in full
       by the end of the  month  following  the month in which  the  invoice  is
       issued ('the due date') provided that delivery of the Kingfisher Products
       which are the subject of the order is properly  made by SN in  accordance
       with  the  terms  of  the  relevant  order.  The  applicable  prices  for
       Kingfisher Products shall be those prevailing at the date of delivery. If
       any invoice  issued to UBSN is not paid by the due date, SN may,  without
       prejudice  to any other  rights or  remedies  it may have (i)  subject to
       giving UBSN at least 14 days notice of its  intention to do so, cancel or
       suspend any further  delivery of  Kingfisher  Products to UBSN;  and (ii)
       charge interest on all overdue  payments,  before as well after judgment,
       at the rate of 2% per  annum  above  the base  rate  from time to time of
       National  Westminster Bank plc (or its successor) from the due date until
       the date on which payment in full is made.

3.9    SN shall not be obliged to supply  Kingfisher  Products to UBSN in excess
       of 30,000  Barrels in aggregate in any Year.  If the volume of Kingfisher
       Products  ordered by UBSN under  clause 3.1  increases  or is  reasonably
       expected  by SN to  increase  to 30,000  Barrels or more in any Year,  SN
       shall promptly so notify UBSN. In the event of such  increased  volume or
       anticipated  increased volume, UBI or UBSN shall, subject to clauses 2.3,
       2.4,  2.5 and 3.10,  have the right to brew  itself or to  negotiate  and
       contract  with other persons for the brewing and the supply of Kingfisher
       Products in excess of 30,000 Barrels per Year (the  "Excess")  within the
       United  Kingdom  PROVIDED  THAT,  prior to UBI or UBSN brewing the Excess
       itself or  contracting  with another person for the brewing in the United
       Kingdom of the  Excess,  SN shall have the option to supply the Excess on
       terms equal to or better  than UBI's, UBSN's or the other  person's  good
       faith offer,  which option shall be valid for 30 (thirty) days  following
       SN's receipt of such terms in writing.

3.10   Subject  to  clause  3.11,  UBI,  SN and UBSN  agree  that if SN does not
       exercise  its option to brew the Excess  under clause 3.9 and UBI or UBSN
       thereafter brew the Excess itself or contract with another person for the
       supply of the Excess, the rights granted to SN under this Agreement shall
       not be affected  except to the extent that such rights shall no longer be
       exclusive PROVIDED THAT, for the avoidance of doubt, and  notwithstanding
       the foregoing.  UBI and/or UBSN shall continue to order from SN the first
       30,000 Barrels of its requirements for Kingfisher Products for re-sale in
       the United Kingdom in any Year.

3.11   Without  prejudice to clause 3.10, if the aggregate  volume of Kingfisher
       Products ordered by UBSN from SN in any Year falls below 7,500 Barrels:-

                                       8
<PAGE>

       3.11.1 SN shall be entitled to terminate  this Agreement by not less than
              12 month notice to UBI and UBSN; and

       3.11.2 Clause  13.1 shall  cease to apply with effect from the end of the
              Year in which such shortfall occurs

3.12   If, in any 4 (four) months out of a consecutive 6 (six) month period,  SN
       fails,  in response  to orders  accepted by SN, to supply at least 95% of
       the  Kingfisher  Products the subject of the order within the  applicable
       delivery  period,  SN and UBSN shall  negotiate  with a view to  agreeing
       what, if any, compensation should be paid to UBSN. Failing such agreement
       within 30 (thirty)  Business  Days,  UBSN shall be entitled to  terminate
       this Agreement pursuant to clause 6.1.2.

4.     COMPOSITION, QUALITY AND PRESENTATION

4.1    In brewing and packaging  Kingfisher  Products under this  Agreement,  SN
       shall:

       4.1.1  use only raw materials  acceptable  to UBSN or,  subject to clause
              4.2, if such raw  materials  are not available in the Territory at
              any time in  sufficient  quantity  (whether  home produced or made
              available through  importation) or at a reasonable price, the best
              reasonable alternative thereto acceptable to UBSN;

       4.1.2  use only qualified technical personnel;

       4.1.3  brew Kingfisher Products in accordance with the Specifications and
              in every other material respect to the reasonable  satisfaction of
              UBSN;

       4.1.4  package Kingfisher Products in accordance with the specifications;

       4.1.5  store  Kingfisher  Products  at  the  Brewery  under  commercially
              acceptable conditions;

       4.1.6  keep, for a minimum of 3 months  following the date of dispatch of
              each batch of bottled  Kingfisher  Products  from the  Brewery,  a
              sample from each such batch,  and promptly notify and discuss with
              UBSN any  complaint  about the  quality of any such batch which SN
              may receive.

4.2    Where,  under  clause  4.1.1,  SN  proposes  to use any  alternative  raw
       materials,  it shall so notify  UBSN and, if within the period of 15 days
       following such  notification,  UBSN has not indicated in writing that the
       proposed alternative(s) are unacceptable, they shall be deemed acceptable
       for the purposes of clause 4.1.1.

                                       9
<PAGE>

4.3    UBSN shall be entitled at any time during normal  business  hours to call
       at the premises of SN without  appointment  for the purpose of inspecting
       the  production of Kingfisher  Products with a view to satisfying  itself
       that SN is complying in all respects with any of the matters  referred to
       in clause 4.1. UBSN agrees not to  unreasonably  withhold any approval or
       acceptance  to be given by it for the  purpose  of clause 4.1 and 4.2 and
       further  agrees  that SN shall have no  liability  to UBSN or UBI for the
       consequences  of any delay in providing any approval or acceptance.  UBSN
       acknowledges and agrees that the Current Kingfisher  Products comply with
       the provisions of clause 4.1, that the raw material  currently being used
       in the  manufacture  of such Products are acceptable to UBSN and that the
       specifications  for the current  packaging for such Products are approved
       by UBSN.

4.4    If,  at any  time,  UBSN  wishes to alter  the  composition,  quality  or
       presentation  of  Kingfisher  Products or to  introduce a new  Kingfisher
       Product,  it shall  notify SN of its  request.  SN shall  use  reasonable
       endeavours to effect such request and, in particular, SN shall, within 30
       days of such notification (or 90 days in the event of material changes to
       the  packaging of  Kingfisher  Products),  indicate to USBN whether it is
       able to make such  alteration or to brew and package such new  Kingfisher
       Product  and,  if so, the time needed to  implement  such  alteration  or
       introduction  and,  as the case may be,  whether  such  alteration  would
       require any change in the price of the Kingfisher  Product  concerned or,
       in the case of a new Kingfisher  Product what price SN proposed to charge
       for such new Kingfisher Product.  If , on receipt of such response,  UBSN
       wishes to implement  such  alteration or introduces  such new  Kingfisher
       Product,  it shall so notify SN. SN shall  implement  such  change in the
       time  indicated  in SN's  response  and  with  effect  from  the  date of
       completion  of such  implementation  or  introduction,  the  price of the
       Kingfisher  Product  concerned  shall  be the  price  indicated  in  SN's
       response.  UBSN and SN agree to act reasonably and in good faith in their
       dealings with any request for or  implementation of any alteration in any
       Kingfisher Product or introduction of a new Kingfisher Product.

4.5    SN shall use all reasonable endeavours to ensure that Kingfisher Products
       are not sold or  delivered by it to UBSN under this  Agreement  after the
       expiry of the period of 4 (four) months from their date of manufacture.

4.6    Subject to clauses 4.2 and 4.3, if any Kingfisher  Products  brewed by SN
       and supplied to UBSN fail to meet the quality standards  required by UBSN
       under clause 4.1.4,  SN shall at its sole option replace such  Kingfisher
       Products with all reasonable dispatch or grant UBSN a credit equal to the
       price at which such Kingfisher Products were invoiced.

4.7    SN shall have no liability under clause 4.6:-

                                       10
<PAGE>

       4.7.1  unless the allegedly  defective  Kingfisher  Products are promptly
              returned to SN carriage  paid and  properly  have been found after
              examination by SN not to have complied with the quality  standards
              required under clause 4.1.4;

       4.7.2  to the  extent  that the  failure  to  comply  with  such  quality
              standards  has been  caused or  materially  contributed  to by the
              Kingfisher  Products  having  been  transported,  stored  or  used
              otherwise than in compliance with any specifications  laid down by
              SN.

       For the  avoidance of doubt,  any batch of Kingfisher  Products  shall be
       deemed to comply with the aforesaid quality standards if the sample taken
       from such batch of  Kingfisher  Products  under  clause 4.1.6 so complies
       unless UBSN can prove otherwise.

       4.8    If,  under  clause 4.4, SN does not effect the  alteration  to the
              composition,  quality  or  presentation  of  some  or  all  of the
              Kingfisher Products (together "Relevant  Kingfisher  Products") as
              reasonably requested by UBSN:

              4.8.1  UBSN  shall  be  entitled  within  the  period  of 3 months
                     thereafter,  to  terminate  this  Agreement  by 12  months'
                     notice to SN: and/or

              4.8.2  UBSN  shall  be  entitled  within  the  period  of 3 months
                     thereafter to contract and license other persons within the
                     United  Kingdom  to  brew,   package,   sell,   market  and
                     distribute such Relevant Kingfisher Products.

4.9    If, under clause 4.4, SN unable or unwilling to produce a new  Kingfisher
       Product as requested by UBSN, then without  prejudice to clause 2.1, UBSN
       shall be entitled to contract and licence other persons within the United
       Kingdom to brew, package, sell, market and distribute such new Kingfisher
       Product.

5.     TERM

5.1    This  Agreement  shall  commence  on the date  hereof and shall  continue
       (unless  terminated earlier in accordance with its terms) for a period of
       10 years (the "Initial Term").

5.2    At any time  within  the  period of two years  prior to the expiry of the
       Initial  Term,  either  SN or UBSN may  serve  notice  on the  other  (an

5.3    Following the service of an Extension Notice, SN and UBSN shall negotiate
       in good faith with a view to agreeing  the  requested  extension  and any
       revisions  to this  Agreement  but if they are  unable  to agree the same
       prior to the expiry of the Initial Term,  this Agreement  shall terminate
       on the expiry of the Initial Term.
