replace it with US$300,000.

         5. Assignee at its cost agrees that it will vigorously defend Assignor
and its interests against the labor matter described in Section 6(iii) and any
related legal actions. The Parties acknowledge that there is no assurance that
Assignee will prevail in such matter. Assignor will cooperate with Assignee's

EXHIBIT 10(cc)
                              ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT

         This Assignment Agreement ("AGREEMENT") is made as of August 15, 2008,
by and between Westbridge Agricultural Products, a California corporation
("ASSIGNOR"), and Alejandro Tamayo Ibarra, a citizen of Mexico ("ASSIGNEE"),
with reference to the following facts:

                                    RECITALS
                                    --------

         A. On March 8, 1990, Assignor entered into an agreement of debt
acknowledgement with a mortgage guarantee, with Ricardo Joaquin Garcia Ortiz,
Alberto Romero Mendez and Martha Salinas de Romero ("DEBTORS"), in the amount of
Four Hundred Fifty Three Thousand Two Hundred Seventy United States of America
Dollars and 13/100 (US$453,270.13). Under said debt acknowledgement, entered
before Public Notary Number Two (2) of the City of La Paz, Baja California Sur,
Mexico, Debtors pledged and delivered in favor of Assignor, a mortgage guarantee
over a parcel of real estate described as Nuevo San Luis, in San Jose del Cabo
district, in Baja California Sur, Mexico, with a surface of 19.20.00 hectares
(Nineteen hectares and 20/100 hectare) and an adjacent parcel with a surface of
80.00.00 hectares (Eighty hectares, no acres and no meters). Both referenced
lots are recorded under the name of Alberto Romero Mendez under the same record:
Number 191, Page 427, Book III: E.P. First Section, dated on October 14, 1971.

         B. Debtors did not comply with their obligation to pay the underlying
obligation as it was agreed in said debt acknowledgement. As a result, Debtors
were sued by the Assignor and the court referenced below gave a judgment in
favor of Assignor in trial number 797/993, on May 17, 1995. The judgment was
issued by the judge of the Court of First Instance of the Judicial Section of
Los Cabos, located in San Jose del Cabo, Baja California Sur, Mexico.

         C. Under a judicial auction, the Property was provisionally awarded to
Assignor on February 8, 2007. This auction took place before the First Court of
First Instance of Civil and Family Matters, located in Cabo San Lucas, Baja
California Sur, Mexico, under number 50/97, which court will be responsible up
to completion, because the court located in San Jose del Cabo excused itself
from the proceedings.

         D. Assignor has not undertaken any action or proceedings to register
the Property, nor has it taken any possession of the Property, therefore the
legal proceeding has not been concluded.

         E. Assignor wishes to assign, transfer and convey its rights to the
Property granted in case number 50/97 and Assignee wishes to receive the
assignment of such Assignor's rights.

         Now, Therefore, for due consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

         1. DEFINITIONS. The following words used in this Agreement, shall have
the following meanings ascribed to them:

                                       1

<page>

         "PROPERTY" shall mean the real estate described as Nuevo San Luis, in
San Jose del Cabo district, in Baja California Sur, Mexico as described in Case
No. 50/97.

         "RIGHTS" shall mean all of Assignor's rights, title and interest to the
Property accruing from or arising in connection with Case No. 50/97, including
rights to register the Property in its name. Without limiting the above, Rights
includes all credit and/or disputed rights arising from the aforementioned
lawsuits, specifically the agreement to acknowledge the debt with the mortgage
guarantee, which noncompliance was the basis for the referenced lawsuits, the
final judgment and its legal consequences which means the expenses and costs of
the trial. The Rights also includes the property rights that Assignor has once
the sale at auction takes place under the execution stage of the aforementioned
legal proceedings as well as all the legal consequences, effects and rights
arising that are necessary to obtain the final award, the material possession of
the Property and the legal registration of the Property under the name of
Assignee. These rights include, and Assignee will acquire, all disputed rights
from Assignor arising from the referenced lawsuits and particularly the contract
which noncompliance originated the final judgment for the Assignor in such
actions, the real estate auction, and the judicial award, as well as the
property rights that Assignor has over the Property.

         2. ASSIGNMENT. Contingent upon receipt of full payment of the Purchase
Price, Assignor shall fully and forever assign, transfer and convey to Assignee
at the Closing Date, all of the Rights, and Assignee accepts such assignment
("ASSIGNMENT"). This Assignment will come into effect, and it will produce legal
consequences between the parties and for third parties, in such a way that it
may deem to be more convenient to Assignor's interests; thereby freeing Assignor
of any responsibility for the Rights or the Property. At the time of Closing,
this Assignment will come into effect, and it will produce legal consequences
between Assignor and Assignee and for third parties, from that time, in such a
manner that Assignee is legalized to exercise the Rights; thereby releasing
Assignor of any responsibility from any action or liability that arises from the
Rights or the Property. Assignor agrees that to the extent it is necessary for
Assignee to exercise any of its rights related to the Assignment in Mexico,
Assignor shall perform all reasonable actions to ratify the transaction
contemplated by this Assignment, including granting special powers of attorneys
before authorities and public notaries in Mexico. The cost related to such
actions, including any costs paid by Assignor, shall be borne by Assignee.

         3. PURCHASE PRICE. For the Assignment, Assignee shall pay to Assignor
US$1,250,000 ("PURCHASE PRICE") payable in accordance with the following
schedule:

                  (i) By July 8, 2008, US$20,000, which amount has been
received.

                  (ii) By August 20, 2008, US$280,000, of which US$5,000 has
been received.

                  (iii) At the time of Closing of this Agreement, US$950,000.

         4. DEPOSITS. All payments of the deposits and Purchase Price will be
paid to Assignor, but subject to the terms of this Agreement. If this Agreement
does not close on the Closing Date, the funds, except those funds which are
non-refundable, shall be promptly returned by Assignor to Assignee by wire
transfer and the transaction set forth in this Agreement will be deemed
terminated. All deposits are non-refundable except the second deposit of
US$280,000 is non-refundable only to the extent of US$25,000 per month (the 15th
day of each month shall constitute the last day of the month) for each 30 day
period or part thereof between August 15, 2008, and the Closing Date.

                                       2

         5. DUE DILIGENCE.

                  A. Assignee has until September 8, 2008 to complete to its
satisfaction all the due diligence on the Property and the Rights. Assignor
shall cooperate with such due diligence to the extent that it has in its
possession documents related to the Property and Rights and has previously
provided Assignee with a limited power of attorney to review court files for
matters 797/973 and 50/97. As part of its due diligence, Assignee will undertake
the following:

                  (i) Review the court files from which Assignor's Rights arose.

                  (ii) Examine the title records of the Property.

                  (iii) Visit the Property.

                  (iv) Examine Mexican local, state and federal laws,
regulations, restrictions, ordinances, policies and other rules governing the
Property and its permitted uses and restrictions.

                  (v) Conduct an independent survey of the Property.

                  (vi) Consult with professionals and experts in real estate
concerning the Property.

         Assignee represents to Assignor that Assignee is an expert in real
estate and real estate development and will undertake all investigations
Assignee deems necessary and prudent in connection with this transaction.

                  B. On or before September 8, 2008, Assignee shall notify
Assignor in writing (email is acceptable) if the results of the due diligence
investigation are unacceptable to Assignee. If no such notice is received by
Assignor, the results of the investigation shall be deemed acceptable to
Assignee. If the results are unacceptable, Assignee shall indicate in the notice
the reason(s) for the results being unacceptable. Upon receipt of such notice
that the due diligence is unacceptable, Assignor may, but is not required, to
correct the problems referenced by Assignee within a thirty (30) day period
following receipt of the notice. If the due diligence is acceptable, either
initially or after correction by Assignor, the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement will conclude in accordance with the terms hereof. If such results are
not acceptable to Assignee, either initially if Assignor waives the right to
correct or after the corrections have been attempted, it will deemed that
Assignee has terminated this Agreement and the deposit, except for the portion
that is non-refundable, will be promptly returned to Assignee.

         6. ASSIGNOR'S DISCLOSURES. Assignor hereby makes the following
disclosures to Assignee concerning the Rights and the Property and Assignee
acknowledges and has determined to proceed with this transaction regardless of
such disclosures.

                                       3

<page>

                  (i) Assignor's Rights to the Property are established in Court
matters 797/993 and 50/97. Assignor has no rights to the Property except as set
forth therein. Assignor is not aware of the costs and expenses related to
further perfect the Rights, or if Assignee will be successful in perfecting the
Rights so Assignee may take title to the Property.
