amendment of the Option or this Agreement, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the

 

 

Plan, shall be valid unless in writing and duly executed by the Company and the Holder. The
failure of any party to enforce any of that party’s rights against the other party for breach of
any of the terms of this Agreement or the Plan shall not be construed as a waiver of such rights as
to any continued or subsequent breach. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Holder and his or

AGREEMENT

     Host Brewer and Tenant Brewer agree as follows:

the brewing of Products (“Tenant Raw Materials”). If Tenant Brewer purchases any Tenant Raw
Materials initially owned by Host Brewer, the purchase price payable by Tenant Brewer for such
Tenant Raw Materials is equal to Host Brewer’s actual cost, with no markup. If Tenant Brewer

Materials to such supplier, or for reimbursement of Host Brewer’s actual costs incurred in

will be based upon the current recipes in Exhibit A. Host Brewer will provide to Tenant
Brewer a monthly inventory of Tenant Raw Materials. Host Brewer will promptly notify Tenant Brewer

negatively impact the production schedule for Products or that will result in Raw Materials
becoming obsolete or being destroyed.

     2. Tenant Packaging Components. Packaging components include all materials (other
than the malt beverage itself) required in the production process including glass bottles, labels,
corrugated packaging components, and closures (“Tenant Packaging Components”). If Tenant Brewer

Packaging Components as agent of Tenant Brewer. Host Brewer will provide Tenant Brewer with a
monthly inventory of Tenant Packaging Components. Host Brewer will promptly notify Tenant Brewer
in writing of any long or short positions on Tenant Packaging Components that Host Brewer
determines will negatively impact the production schedule for Products or that will result in
Tenant Packaging Components becoming obsolete or being destroyed.

negligence or willful misconduct.

or any claim is presented to or any action or proceeding commenced against the Indemnitee, which
may give rise to the right of indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitee will give prompt written
notice thereof to the other party obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee hereunder (the
“Indemnitor”). The Indemnitor, by delivery of written notice to the Indemnitee within 20 days of

defense of any such third party claim at the Indemnitor’s expense. If the Indemnitor assumes the
defense, it shall have the right to settle an indemnifiable matter without the consent of the
Indemnitee unless the settlement would have a material adverse effect on the Indemnitee. If the
Indemnitor does not timely elect to defend an indemnifiable matter, the Indemnitee shall have the
exclusive right to prosecute, defend, compromise, settle, or pay any claim, without prejudice to
the right of the Indemnitee to recover any and all losses and reasonable expenses incurred

reasonable access to the books and records of the Indemnitee and shall otherwise cooperate with the
Indemnitor in connection with any matter or claim of indemnification.

          7.4 Limitation of Liability. Except with respect to, and to the extent of, damages
arising out of the negligence or willful misconduct of a party to this Agreement, and except with
respect to violations of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement, in no event is either
party to this Agreement to be liable for special, incidental, or consequential damages or lost
revenues or profits, except to the extent that the damages arise out of or are related to an
occurrence that is covered by any insurance policy maintained by the party from whom damages are
sought or which that party was obligated to maintain under this Agreement.

          7.5 Insurance. So long as this Agreement is in force, each party must maintain
