                                 AMENDMENT NO. 1
                           TO SUIZA FOODS CORPORATION
                      EXECUTIVE DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
                            EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2000

         This Amendment No. 1, effective January 1, 2000 unless otherwise noted
herein, is adopted by Suiza Foods Corporation (the "Company"), a corporation
formed under the laws of the State of Delaware.

         WHEREAS, the Company established the Suiza Foods Corporation Executive
Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan") for the exclusive benefit of a select
group of management and highly compensated employees of the Company and its
Affiliates effective July 1, 1999;

         WHEREAS, the Company now desires to amend the Plan to add a limited
ability to invest in Company stock;

         WHEREAS, the Company desires to make certain other amendments to the
Plan to clarify that employees of employers who are not members of the same
controlled group of entities with the Company are also eligible to participate
in the Plan;

         NOW, THEREFORE, the Company hereby amends the Plan as follows:

         1. Section 1.2 is hereby amended effective July 1, 1999 to read as
follows:

                  "Affiliate" shall mean a member of a controlled group of
         corporations (as defined in Section 414(b) of the Code), a group of
         trades or businesses (whether or not incorporated) which are under
         common control (as defined in Section 414(c) of the Code), or an
         affiliated service group (as defined in Section 414(m) of the Code) of
         which the Company is a member; any entity otherwise required to be
         aggregated with the Company pursuant to Section 414(o) of the Code or
         the regulations issued thereunder; and any other entity in which the
         Company has an ownership interest and to which the Company elects to
         make participation in the Plan available.

         2. Article I is hereby amended by adding Section 1.18 to the end
thereof reading as follows:

                  1.18 "Company Stock" shall mean the common stock of the
         Company.

         3. Article III of the Plan is hereby amended by adding the following
Section 3.5 to the end thereof:

                  3.5 In addition to the other investments which the Participant
         may designate in which such Participant's Account shall be deemed to be
         invested for the purposes of determining the amount of earnings to be
         credited to that Account, a Participant who is an Executive Officer of
         the Company or a Chief Operating Officer of an Affiliate may designate
         that all or a portion of such Participant's bonus be deemed to be
         invested in Company Stock. If a Participant makes such an election, the
         Committee shall credit to the Participant's Account the number of
         shares that could have been purchased on the open market using the
         closing price on the date on which the bonus otherwise would have been
         paid and applying a 15% discount to the purchase price. If the
         Participant makes such a designation with respect to a bonus, such
         designation shall remain in force throughout the Participant's
         participation in the Plan and the Participant shall not be entitled to
         change such designation. A Participant who makes such a designation
         with respect to bonuses paid in one year can make another investment
         designation for bonuses paid in other years.

         4. Section 4.3 is hereby amended to read as follows:

                  4.3 Except as provided in Section 4.4, after a Participant's
         termination of employment for any reason other than death or
         Disability, such Participant shall be entitled to the entire value of
         all amounts credited to the Account of such Participant, determined as
         of the Valuation Date coincident with or preceding the date of
         distribution.

         5. Article IV is hereby amended by adding the following Section 4.4 to
the end thereof:

                  4.4 If a Participant has designated that all or a portion of a
         bonus that otherwise would be paid to such Participant shall be
         deferred pursuant to the Plan and deemed to be invested in Company
         Stock, then the following rules shall apply to that portion of the
         Participant's Account:

                  (1) If the Participant becomes entitled to a distribution from
         the Plan and such distribution is as a result of the Participant's
         termination of employment because of death, Disability, or retirement
         on or after age 65, then such Participant shall be entitled to a
         distribution of the portion of his Account which is deemed to be
         invested in Company Stock and such distribution shall be made in shares
         of Company Stock.

                  (2) If a Participant is entitled to a distribution for a
         reason other than death, Disability, or retirement on or after age 65,
         or if a Participant elects to take an in-service withdrawal as
         authorized in Article VI, the Participant shall be entitled to receive:

                           (a) 100% of any Company Stock that has been credited
                  to the Participant's account for two or more years as of the
                  date of the termination or request for withdrawal, as the case
                  may be, and

                           (b) 85% of the number of shares of Company Stock
                  which have not been credited to such Participant's Account for
                  at least two years as of the date of termination or request
                  for withdrawal, as the case may be.

         All distributions or withdrawals of the portion of a Participant's
         Account which is deemed to be invested in Company Stock shall be made
         solely in shares of Company Stock, plus cash for any fractional shares.
         In the case of an in-service withdrawal, the reductions and limitations
         of Article VI shall apply to the amount determined pursuant to this
         Section 4.4(2).

         6. The first paragraph of Section 5.1 is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  5.1 In the case of a Participant who terminates employment
         with the Company, the amount credited to the Participant's Account
         (provided it is more than $25,000) shall be paid in cash (except as
         otherwise provided in Section 4.4), to the Participant, at the time the
         distribution of the Account is to commence, from among the following
         optional forms of benefit as elected by the Participant on the form
         provided by Company upon his or her initial participation in the Plan:

                  (1) a lump sum distribution;
                  (2) substantially equal annual installments over five (5)
                      years;
                  (3) substantially equal annual installments over ten (10)
                      years; or
                  (4) substantially equal annual installments over fifteen (15)
                      years.

         If a portion of the Participant's Account is invested in Company Stock,
         and an installment form of payment is elected, then the distribution
         shall be deemed to be made on a pro rata basis out of the other
         investment options in which amounts credited to a Participant's Account
         are deemed to be invested first, and then, after all such other amounts
         are distributed, from the portion of the Participant's Account which is
         deemed to be invested in Company Stock. Notwithstanding the
         Participant's distribution election, if the amount credited to a
         Participant's Account is $25,000 or less, at the time distribution of
         the Account is to commence, payment will be made in a lump sum, and
         even if installment payments have commenced under this Section 5.1, at
         such time as the value of such

                              Exhibit 4.2 - Page 2

<PAGE>   3

         remaining amounts is $25,000 or less, all remaining amounts credited to
         a Participant's Account shall be distributed in a lump sum.

         7. Section 5.2 is hereby amended to read as follows:

                  5.2 Payment of a Participant's benefit on account of death
         shall be made in a lump sum delivered in cash except as otherwise
         provided in Section 4.4. Payment of a Participant's death benefit shall
         be made to the Beneficiary of such Participant as soon as practicable
         following the Committee's receipt of proper notice of such
         Participant's death.

         8. The last sentence of Section 6.1 is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  All hardship withdrawals shall be paid in a lump sum delivered
         in cash or in shares of Company Stock, to the extent that Section 4.4
         applies.

         9. The last sentence of Section 6.2 is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  Any withdrawals under this Section 6.2 shall be made in a
         single lump sum delivered in cash or in shares of Company Stock, to the
         extent that Section 4.4 applies.

         10. The first paragraph of Section 6.3 is hereby amended to read as
follows:

                  6.3 (UNSCHEDULED IN-SERVICE WITHDRAWALS): Notwithstanding any
         other provision herein to the contrary, prior to the end of any
         calendar month, a Participant who is actively employed or has started
         receiving installment payments, (as provided in Section 5.1 above) may
         elect to accelerate the date on which payment of his benefit hereunder
         would otherwise be made, using a form provided by and filed with the
         Committee. Upon such election, the amount to which such Participant is
         entitled shall be any whole percentage, from ten percent (10%) to
         ninety percent (90%) of the benefit otherwise payable hereunder, which
         shall be distributed in one lump sum, in cash (or in shares of Company
         Stock to the extent that Section 4.4 applies), as soon as
         administratively practicable after the end of the calendar month in
         which the early distribution election is made. Ten percent (10%) of any
         amounts withdrawn from such Participant's Account shall be forfeited as
         of the date of such distribution.

         11. Section 6.4 is hereby amended to read as follows:

                  6.4 Withdrawals shall be charged pro rata to the investment
         options in which the amounts credited to a Participant's Account are
         deemed to be invested pursuant to Section 3.4 hereof. If a withdrawal
         exceeds the amount of a Participant's Account which is deemed to be
         invested pursuant to Section 3.4 hereof, then such withdrawals shall be
         charged to the portion of the Participant's Account which is deemed to
         be invested in Company Stock as provided in Section 3.5 hereof.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Amendment No. 1 to be
executed this 16th day of November, 1999.
