                      Article I. Establishment and Purpose
                      ------------------------------------

         1.1 ESTABLISHMENT. Nascent Wine Company, a Nevada corporation (the
"Company"), hereby establishes a stock option plan for officers, directors,
employees and consultants who provide services to the Company, as described
herein, which shall be known as the 2008 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). It is
intended that certain of the options issued under the Plan to employees of the
Company shall constitute "Incentive Stock Options" within the meaning of section
422A of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code"), and that other options issued under
the Plan shall constitute "Nonstatutory Options" under the Code. The Board of
Directors of the Company (the "Board") shall determine which options are to be
Incentive Stock Options and which are to be Nonstatutory Options and shall enter
into option agreements with recipients accordingly.

         1.2 PURPOSE. The purpose of this Plan is to enhance the Company's
stockholder value and financial performance by attracting, retaining and
motivating the Company's officers, directors, key employees and consultants and
to encourage stock ownership by such individuals by providing them with a means
to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company's success through stock
ownership.

                             Article II. Definitions

participate in this Plan and receive Incentive Stock Options and/or Nonstatutory
Options hereunder. All Consultants are eligible to participate in this Plan and
receive Nonstatutory Options hereunder. Optionees in the Plan shall be selected
by the Board from among those Employees and Consultants who, in the opinion of
the Board, are in a position to contribute materially to the Company's continued
growth and development and to its long-term financial success.

                           Article IV. Administration
                           --------------------------

         4.1 ADMINISTRATION. The Board shall be responsible for administering
the Plan.

         The Board is authorized to interpret the Plan; to prescribe, amend, and
rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; to provide for conditions
and assurances deemed necessary or advisable to protect the interests of the
Company; and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan, but only to the extent not contrary to the express
provisions of the Plan. Determinations, interpretations or other actions made or
taken by the Board, pursuant to the provisions of this Plan, shall be final and
binding and conclusive for all purposes and upon all persons.

         The Plan shall be administered by the Board until the Board establishes
a Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Committee") which will be an
executive committee of the Board, consisting of not less than two (2) members of
the Board, at least one of whom are not executive officers or salaried employees
of the Company. The members of the Committee may be directors who are eligible
to receive Options [as defined in section 2.1 paragraph L]. under the Plan, but
Options may be granted to such persons only by action of the full Board and not
by action of the Committee. The Committee shall have full power and authority,
subject to the limitations of the Plan and any limitations imposed by the Board,
to construe, interpret and administer the Plan and to make determinations which
shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons, including, without
limitation, the Company, the stockholders, the directors and any persons having
any interests in any Options which may be granted under the Plan, and, by
resolution or resolution providing for the creation and issuance of any such
Option, to fix the terms upon which, the time or times at or within which, and
the price or prices at which any Stock may be purchased from the Company upon
the exercise of Options, which terms, time or times and price or prices shall,
in every case, be set forth or incorporated by reference in the instrument or
instruments evidencing such Option, and shall be consistent with the provisions
of the Plan.

         The Board may from time to time remove members from or add members to,
the Committee. The Board may terminate the Committee at any time. Vacancies on
the Committee, howsoever caused, shall be filled by the Board. The Committee
shall select one of its members as Chairman, and shall hold meetings at such
times and places as the Chairman may determine. A majority of the Committee at
which a quorum is present, or acts reduced to or approved in writing by all of
the members of the Committee, shall be the valid acts of the Committee.

                                       3
<PAGE>

         Where the Committee has been created by the Board, references herein to
actions to be taken by the Board shall be deemed to refer to the Committee as
well, except where limited by the Plan or the Board.

         The Board shall have all of the enumerated powers of the Committee but
shall not be limited to such powers. No member of the Board or the Committee
shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect
to the Plan or any Option granted under it.

         4.2 SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR GRANTS TO OFFICERS OR DIRECTORS. Rule 16b-3
under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act") provides that the
grant of a stock option to a director or officer of a company subject to the Act
will be exempt from the provisions of section 16(b) of the Act if the conditions
set forth in said Rule are satisfied. Unless otherwise specified by the Board,
grants of Options hereunder to individuals who are officers or directors of the
Company shall be made in a manner that satisfies the conditions of said Rule.

                      Article V. Stock Subject to the Plan
                      ------------------------------------

         5.1 NUMBER. The total number of shares of Stock hereby made available
and reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be 30,000,000. The aggregate
number of shares of Stock available under this Plan shall be subject to
adjustment as provided in section 5.3. The total number of shares of Stock may
be authorized but unissued shares of Stock, or shares acquired by purchase as
directed by the Board from time to time in its discretion, to be used for
issuance upon exercise of Options granted hereunder.

         5.2 UNUSED STOCK. If an Option shall expire or terminate for any reason
without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased shares of Stock subject
thereto shall (unless the Plan shall have terminated) become available for other
Options under the Plan.

         5.3 ADJUSTMENT IN CAPITALIZATION. In the event of any change in the
outstanding shares of Stock by reason of a stock dividend or split,
recapitalization, reclassification or other similar corporate change, the
aggregate number of shares of Stock set forth in section 5.1 shall be
appropriately adjusted by the Board to reflect such change. The Board's
determination shall be conclusive; provided, however, that fractional shares
shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. In any such case, the number and
kind of shares of Stock that are subject to any Option (including any Option
outstanding after termination of employment) and the Option price per share
shall be proportionately and appropriately adjusted without any change in the
aggregate Option price to be paid therefor upon exercise of the Option.

                        Article VI. Duration of the Plan
                        --------------------------------

         6.1 DURATION OF THE PLAN. The Plan shall be in effect until ten years
from the effective date of the Plan. Any Options outstanding at the end of said
period shall remain in effect in accordance with their terms. The Plan shall
terminate before the end of said period, if all Stock subject to it has been
purchased pursuant to the exercise of Options granted under the Plan.

                       Article VII. Terms of Stock Options
                       -----------------------------------

         7.1 GRANT OF OPTIONS. Subject to section 5.1, Options may be granted to
Employees or Consultants at any time and from time to time as determined by the
Board; provided, however, that Consultants may receive only Nonstatutory
Options, and may not receive Incentive Stock Options. The Board shall have
complete discretion in determining the number of Options granted to each
Optionee. In making such determinations, the Board may take into account the
nature of services rendered by such Employees or Consultants, their present and
potential contributions to the Company, and such other factors as the Board in
its discretion shall deem relevant. The Board also shall determine whether an
Option is to be an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Option.

         In the case of Incentive Stock Options the total Fair Market Value
(determined at the date of grant) of shares of Stock with respect to which
incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee
during any calendar year under all plans of the Company under which incentive
stock options may be granted (and all such plans of any Parent Corporations and
any subsidiary corporations of the Company) shall not exceed $100,000.
(Hereinafter, this requirement is sometimes referred to as the "$100,000
Limitation.")

         Nothing in this Article VII shall be deemed to prevent the grant of
Options permitting exercise in excess of the maximums established by the
preceding paragraph where such excess amount is treated as a Nonstatutory
Option.

         The Board is expressly given the authority to issue amended or
replacement Options with respect to shares of Stock subject to an Option
previously granted hereunder. An amended Option amends the terms of an Option
previously granted (including an extension of the terms of such Option) and
thereby supersedes the previous Option. A replacement Option is similar to a new
Option granted hereunder except that it provides that it shall be forfeited to
the extent that a previously granted Option is exercised, or except that its
issuance is conditioned upon the termination of a previously granted Option.

         7.2 NO TANDEM OPTIONS. Where an Option granted under the Plan is
intended to be an Incentive Stock Option, the Option shall not contain terms
pursuant to which the exercise of the Option would affect the Optionee's right
to exercise another Option, or vice versa, such that the Option intended to be
an Incentive Stock Option would be deemed a tandem stock option within the
meaning of the regulations under section 422A of the Code.

         7.3 OPTION AGREEMENT; TERMS AND CONDITIONS TO APPLY UNLESS OTHERWISE
SPECIFIED. As determined by the Board on the date of grant, each Option shall be
evidenced by an Option agreement (the "Option Agreement") that includes the
nontransferability provisions required by section 10.2 hereof and specifies:
whether the Option is an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Option; the
Option price; the term (duration) of the Option; the number of shares of Stock

                                       5
<PAGE>

to which the Option applies; any vesting or exercisability restrictions which
the Board may impose; in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, a provision
implementing the $100,000 Limitation; and any other terms or conditions which
the Board may impose. All such terms and conditions shall be determined by the
Board at the time of grant of the Option.

         If not otherwise specified by the Board, the following terms and
conditions shall apply to Options granted under the Plan:

         (a) TERM. The Option shall be exercisable to purchase Stock for a
         period of ten years from the date of grant, as evidenced by the
         execution date of the Option Agreement.

         (b) EXERCISE OF OPTION. Unless an Option is terminated as provided
         hereunder, an Optionee may exercise his Option for up to, but not in
         excess of, the number of shares of Stock subject to the Option
         specified below, based on the terms and conditions of the option.

         The Board may specify terms and conditions at its sole discretion.

         All Option Agreements shall incorporate the provisions of the Plan by
reference, with certain provisions to apply depending upon whether the Option
Agreement applies to an Incentive Stock Option or to a Nonstatutory Option.

         7.4 OPTION PRICE. No Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to this
Plan shall have an Option price that is less than the Fair Market Value of the
Stock on the date the Option is granted. Incentive Stock Options granted to
Significant Stockholders shall have an Option price of not less than 110 percent
of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant. The Option price for
Nonstatutory Options shall be established by the Board and shall not be less
than 100 percent of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant.

         7.5 TERM OF OPTIONS. Each Option shall expire at such time as the Board
shall determine, provided, however, that no Option shall be exercisable later
than ten years from the date of its grant.

         7.6 EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. Options granted under the Plan shall be
exercisable at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as
the Board shall in each instance approve, which need not be the same for all
Optionees.

         7.7 PAYMENT. Payment for all shares of Stock shall be made at the time
that an Option, or any part thereof, is exercised, and no shares shall be issued
until full payment therefor has been made. Payment shall be made (i) in cash or
certified funds, or (ii) if acceptable to the Board, in Stock or in some other
form; provided, however, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, that said
other form of payment does not prevent the Option from qualifying for treatment
as an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of the Code.

                    Article VIII. Written Notice, Issuance Of
                    -----------------------------------------
                   Stock Certificates, Stockholder Privileges
                   ------------------------------------------

                                       6
<PAGE>

         8.1 WRITTEN NOTICE. An Optionee wishing to exercise an Option shall
give written notice to the Company, in the form and manner prescribed by the
Board. Full payment for the shares exercised pursuant to the Option must
accompany the written notice.

         8.2 ISSUANCE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES. As soon as practicable after the
receipt of written notice and payment, the Company shall deliver to the Optionee
or to a nominee of the Optionee a certificate or certificates for the requisite
number of shares of Stock.

         8.3 PRIVILEGES OF A STOCKHOLDER. An Optionee or any other person
entitled to exercise an Option under this Plan shall not have stockholder
privileges with respect to any Stock covered by the Option until the date of
issuance of a stock certificate for such stock.

                Article IX. Termination of Employment or Services
                -------------------------------------------------

         Except as otherwise expressly specified by the Board for Nonstatutory
Options, all Options granted under this Plan shall be subject to the following
termination provisions:

         9.1 DEATH. If an Optionee's employment in the case of an Employee, or
provision of services as a Consultant, in the case of a Consultant, terminates
by reason of death, the Option may thereafter be exercised at any time prior to
the expiration date of the Option or within 12 months after the date of such
death, whichever period is the shorter, by the person or persons entitled to do
so under the Optionee's will or, if the Optionee shall fail to make a
testamentary disposition of an Option or shall die intestate, the Optionee's
legal representative or representatives. The Option shall be exercisable only to
the extent that such Option was exercisable as of the date of Optionee's death.

         9.2 TERMINATION OTHER THAN FOR CAUSE OR DUE TO DEATH. In the event of
an Optionee's termination of employment, in the case of an Employee, or
termination of the provision of services as a Consultant, in the case of a
Consultant, other than by reason of death, the Optionee may exercise such
portion of his Option as was exercisable by him at the date of such termination
(the "Termination Date") at any time within three (3) months of the Termination
Date; provided, however, that where the Optionee is an Employee, and is
terminated due to disability within the meaning of Code section 422A, he may
exercise such portion of his Option as was exercisable by him on his Termination
Date within one year of his Termination Date. In any event, the Option cannot be
exercised after the expiration of the term of the Option. Options not exercised
within the applicable period specified above shall terminate.

         In the case of an Employee, a change of duties or position within the
Company, shall not be considered a termination of employment for purposes of
this Plan. The Option Agreements may contain such provisions as the Board shall
approve with reference to the effect of approved leaves of absence upon
termination of employment.

                                       7
<PAGE>

         9.3 TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. In the event of an Optionee's termination of
employment, in the case of an Employee, or termination of the provision of
services as a Consultant, in the case of a Consultant, which termination is by
the Company for cause, any Option or Options held by him under the Plan, to the
extent not exercised before such termination, shall forthwith terminate.

                         Article X. Rights of Optionees
                         ------------------------------

         10.1 SERVICE. Nothing in this Plan shall interfere with or limit in any
way the right of the Company to terminate any Employee's employment, or any
Consultant's services, at any time, nor confer upon any Employee any right to
continue in the employ of the Company, or upon any Consultant any right to
continue to provide services to the Company.

         10.2 NONTRANSFERABILITY. Except as otherwise specified by the Board for
Nonstatutory Options, Options granted under this Plan shall be nontransferable
by the Optionee, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and
shall be exercisable during the Optionee's lifetime only by the Optionee.

                         Article XI. Optionee-Employee's
                         -------------------------------
                          Transfer or Leave of Absence
                          ----------------------------

         11.1 OPTIONEE-EMPLOYEE'S TRANSFER OR LEAVE OF ABSENCE. For Plan
purposes:

         (a) A transfer of an Optionee who is an Employee within the Company, or

         (b) a leave of absence for such an Optionee (i) which is duly
         authorized in writing by the Company, and (ii) if the Optionee holds an
         Incentive Stock Option, which qualifies under the applicable
         regulations under the Code which apply in the case of Incentive Stock
         Options, shall not be deemed a termination of employment. However,
         under no circumstances may an Optionee exercise an Option during any
         leave of absence, unless authorized by the Board.

                      Article XII. Amendment, Modification
                      ------------------------------------
                           and Termination of the Plan
                           ---------------------------

         12.1 AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. The Board may
at any time terminate, and from time to time may amend or modify the Plan,
provided, however, that no such action of the Board, without approval of the
stockholders, may:

         (a) increase the total amount of Stock which may be purchased through
         Options granted under the Plan, except as provided in Article V;

         (b) change the class of Employees or Consultants eligible to receive
         Options;

No amendment, modification or termination of the Plan shall in any manner
adversely affect any outstanding Option under the Plan without the consent of
the Optionee holding the Option.

                Article XIII. Acquisition, Merger and Liquidation
                -------------------------------------------------

                                       8
<PAGE>

         13.1 ACQUISITION. In the event that an Acquisition occurs with respect
to the Company, the Company shall have the option, but not the obligation, to
cancel Options outstanding as of the effective date of Acquisition, whether or
not such Options are then exercisable, in return for payment to the Optionees of
an amount equal to a reasonable estimate of an amount (hereinafter the "Spread")
equal to the difference between the net amount per share of Stock payable in the
Acquisition, or as a result of the Acquisition, less the exercise price of the
Option. In estimating the Spread, appropriate adjustments to give effect to the
existence of the Options shall be made, such as deeming the Options to have been
exercised, with the Company receiving the exercise price payable thereunder, and
treating the shares receivable upon exercise of the Options as being outstanding
in determining the net amount per share. For purposes of this section, an
"Acquisition" shall mean any transaction in which substantially all of the
Company's assets are acquired or in which a controlling amount of the Company's
outstanding shares are acquired, in each case by a single person or entity or an
affiliated group of persons and/or entities. For purposes of this section a
controlling amount shall mean more than 50% of the issued and outstanding shares
of stock of the Company. The Company shall have such an option regardless of how
the Acquisition is effectuated, whether by direct purchase, through a merger or
similar corporate transaction, or otherwise. In cases where the acquisition
consists of the acquisition of assets of the Company, the net amount per share
shall be calculated on the basis of the net amount receivable with respect to
shares upon a distribution and liquidation by the Company after giving effect to
expenses and charges, including but not limited to taxes, payable by the Company
before the liquidation can be completed.

         Where the Company does not exercise its option under this section 13.1,
the remaining provisions of this Article XIII shall apply, to the extent
applicable.

         13.2 MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION. Subject to any required action by the
stockholders, if the Company shall be the surviving corporation in any merger or
consolidation, any Option granted hereunder shall pertain to and apply to the
securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to the
Option would have been entitled in such merger or consolidation.

         13.3 OTHER TRANSACTIONS. A dissolution or a liquidation of the Company
or a merger and consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving
corporation shall cause every Option outstanding hereunder to terminate as of
the effective date of such dissolution, liquidation, merger or consolidation.
However, the Optionee either (i) shall be offered a firm commitment whereby the
resulting or surviving corporation in a merger or consolidation will tender to
the Optionee an option (the "Substitute Option") to purchase its shares on terms
and conditions both as to number of shares and otherwise, which will
substantially preserve to the Optionee the rights and benefits of the Option
outstanding hereunder granted by the Company, or (ii) shall have the right
immediately prior to such dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation to

                 ----------------------------------------------

            FORM OF PERFORMANCE-BASED DEFERRED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT

                                       10
<PAGE>

     This AWARD AGREEMENT (the "Award Agreement") is made effective as of ,
between the Company, and (the "Participant").

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant an award (the "Award") of
performance-based deferred stock pursuant to the Plan and the terms and
conditions set forth herein;

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set
forth, the parties agree as follows:

         1. GRANT OF AWARD. The Company hereby grants to Participant an Award
consisting of shares of Common Stock of the Company ("Stock"). The Award granted
under this Award Agreement is intended to qualify under Sections 7(c) and (g) of
the Plan. The grant of this Award is subject to the Participant's execution and
return of this Award Agreement to the Company.

         2. NATURE OF AWARD. The Company agrees to issue the number of shares of
Stock provided in Section 1 to Participant (or, in the event of Participant's
death, to Participant's beneficiary designated prior to death in a manner
acceptable to the Company, or, if no such beneficiary has been so designated, to
Participant's estate) (such designated beneficiary or the estate, as the case
may be, being herein referred to as Participant's "Beneficiary") at the times
and upon achievement of the conditions specified in Section 4, subject to the
terms and conditions of the Plan and the Award Agreement. The Award is unfunded
and unsecured, and Participant's rights to any Stock hereunder shall be no
greater than those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. The Award
may not be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed
of, except for disposition at death as provided above. The Award does not
entitle Participant to any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of
Stock subject to the Award, unless and until such shares of Stock have been
issued to Participant. The Award is intended to constitute an arrangement that
qualifies as a "short term deferral" exempt from the requirements of Section
409A of the Code, and shall be construed accordingly. The Award is intended to
constitute "qualified performance-based compensation" within the meaning of
Section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder.

         3. INCORPORATION OF PLAN. The Award is subject to the terms and
conditions of the Plan, as from time to time amended, the provisions of which
are incorporated by reference in this Award Agreement. The Participant hereby
acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all the
terms and provisions thereof. In the event of a conflict between any term or
provision contained herein and a term or provision of the Plan, the applicable
terms or provisions of the Plan shall govern and prevail.

                                       11
<PAGE>

         4. PERFORMANCE VESTING CRITERIA.

         (a) Participant shall be entitled to have issued to Participant the
number of shares of Stock subject to the Award upon the satisfaction of the
performance condition(s) at the times or within the time frames (the
"Performance Period(s)") set forth in Appendix A or in connection with a Change
in Control as provided in Section 5. None of the foregoing performance
conditions shall be deemed to have been satisfied unless the Committee shall
have so certified in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code.

         (b) If a performance condition required for the vesting of any portion
of the Award is not satisfied by the end of the last Performance Period in
Appendix A for achieving such performance conditions, such portion of the Award
shall thereupon be immediately forfeited.

         (c) At the end of each Performance Period, or at such earlier time
selected by the Committee, the Committee shall determine whether and to what
extent the performance condition(s) have been met. Such results shall be
certified in writing by the Committee prior to any Stock being issued hereunder.
Except as provided in Section 5, in no event shall the Participant be deemed to
be vested in any Award prior to the achievement of the performance conditions
and certification of the Committee as provided above.

         5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control,
Participant shall immediately and automatically be entitled to have issued to
Participant any shares of Stock to which Participant has not yet become entitled
pursuant to Section 4 and which prior to the Change in Control had not been
forfeited (whether or not the performance condition(s) specified under Section 4
above has/have been satisfied).

         6. ISSUANCE OF STOCK. As soon as practicable after Participant's right
to have issued to Participant any share of Stock subject to the Award has vested
under Section 4 or Section 5 above, but in no event later than the 15th day of
the 3rd month following the close of the calendar year in which such vesting
occurs or, if later, the close of the fiscal year of the Company in which such
vesting occurs, the Company shall issue to Participant (or, if Participant has
died, to Participant's Beneficiary) such shares of Stock evidenced either by a
stock certificate or by such other evidence of record ownership as the Company
deems appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant's right to any
shares of Stock subject to the Award vests in connection with a Change in
Control, or has previously vested but such shares of Stock has not yet been
issued prior to the Change in Control, the Company in its discretion, to the
extent consistent with Section 409A of the Code and subject to such conditions
as the Company may prescribe (including, where vesting has not yet occurred, a
condition that the Stock be relinquished if the Change in Control does not
occur), may issue such shares of Stock to Participant sufficiently in advance of
the Change in Control to permit Participant to participate in the Change in
Control as a shareholder with respect to such shares of Stock.

                                       12
<PAGE>

         7. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

         a. If Participant's employment with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries terminates during the Performance Period by reason of death or
disability, Participant will continue to be eligible to receive payment of the
Award, if any, that would otherwise be payable pursuant to paragraph 6, but any
such amount shall be pro rated for the portion of the Performance Period that
elapsed prior to this termination of employment.

         b. If Participant's employment with the Company terminates during the
Performance Period other than by reason of death or disability, or a Change in
Control, the Award shall terminate and Participant shall immediately and
automatically forfeit all rights to the Award, including to the receipt of any
shares of Stock under the Award.

         8. NO RIGHTS OF A STOCKHOLDER OR TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. The
Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to
the Stock underlying an Award unless and until certificates evidencing such
Stock shall have been issued by the Company to the Participant. Until such time,
the Participant shall not be entitled to dividends or distributions in respect
of any shares of Stock subject to an Award or to vote such Stock on any matter
submitted to the shareholders of the Company. This Agreement shall not confer
upon the Participant any right to continued employment by the Company.

         9. ADJUSTMENTS. The Award and the shares of Stock subject to the Award
are subject to adjustment as provided in the Plan.

         10. WITHHOLDING. Participant or Beneficiary shall, no later than the
date on which any share of Stock is issued to Participant or Beneficiary and as
a condition to such transfer, pay to the Company in cash, or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any Federal, state, or local
taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such income. If
any taxes are required to be withheld prior to such issue of such share of Stock
(for example, upon the vesting of the right to receive such share), the Company
may require Participant or Beneficiary to pay such taxes timely in cash by
separate payment, may withhold the required taxes from other amounts payable to
Participant or Beneficiary, or may agree with Participant or Beneficiary on
other arrangements for the payment of such taxes, all as the Company determines
in its discretion.

         11. SECTION 83(b) NOT APPLICABLE. Because the Award does not give to
Participant a present ownership right in any Stock, but only a conditional right
to acquire shares of Stock in the future, Participant shall not be entitled to
make a so-called "83(b) election" with respect to the shares of Stock subject to
the Award.

         12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Award Agreement and the Plan constitute the
entire understanding between the Participant and the Company and its
Subsidiaries, and supersede all other agreements, whether written or oral, with
respect to the Award. The Participant agrees to accept as binding, conclusive
and final all decisions and interpretations of the Committee of the Company with
respect to any question that may arise under the Plan and this Agreement.

                                       13

         13. NOTICE. Unless otherwise provided herein, any notice or other
communication hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by registered or
certified mail. Any notice given by the Company to the Participant directed to
him at his address on file with the Company shall be effective to bind any other
person who shall acquire rights hereunder. The Company shall be under no
obligation whatsoever to advise or notify the Participant of the existence,
maturity or termination of any rights hereunder and the Participant shall be
deemed to have familiarized himself with all matters contained herein and in the
Plan which may affect any of the Participant's rights or privileges hereunder.

         14. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Nevada without giving effect
to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of or
any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the State of Nevada.

terms and conditions of this Agreement, by written notice to the Company. The
notice shall be in the form attached to this Agreement and will be accompanied
by payment (in such form as the Company may specify) of the full purchase price
of the Stock to be issued, and in the event of an exercise under the terms of

                                     FORM OF
                           NASCENT WINE COMPANY, INC.
                PERFORMANCE-BASED DEFERRED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT
                         UNDER THE AMENDED AND RESTATED
                          2008 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

         This AWARD AGREEMENT (the "Award Agreement") is made effective as of ,
between Nascent Wine Company , Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), and
(the "Participant"). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the same meanings as in the Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan").

         WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant an award (the "Award") of
performance-based deferred stock pursuant to the Plan and the terms and
conditions set forth herein;

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set
forth, the parties agree as follows:

         1. GRANT OF AWARD. The Company hereby grants to Participant an Award
consisting of ______________________ shares of Common Stock of the Company
("Stock"). The Award granted under this Award Agreement is intended to qualify
under Sections 7(c) and (g) of the Plan. The grant of this Award is subject to
the Participant's execution and return of this Award Agreement to the Company.

         2. NATURE OF AWARD. The Company agrees to issue the number of shares of
Stock provided in Section 1 to Participant (or, in the event of Participant's
death, to Participant's beneficiary designated prior to death in a manner
acceptable to the Company, or, if no such beneficiary has been so designated, to
Participant's estate) (such designated beneficiary or the estate, as the case
may be, being herein referred to as Participant's "Beneficiary") at the times
and upon achievement of the conditions specified in Section 4, subject to the
terms and conditions of the Plan and the Award Agreement. The Award is unfunded
and unsecured, and Participant's rights to any Stock hereunder shall be no
greater than those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. The Award
may not be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed
of, except for disposition at death as provided above. The Award does not
entitle Participant to any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of
Stock subject to the Award, unless and until such shares of Stock have been
issued to Participant. The Award is intended to constitute an arrangement that
qualifies as a "short term deferral" exempt from the requirements of Section
409A of the Code, and shall be construed accordingly. The Award is intended to
constitute "qualified performance-based compensation" within the meaning of
Section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder.

         3. INCORPORATION OF PLAN. The Award is subject to the terms and
conditions of the Plan, as from time to time amended, the provisions of which
are incorporated by reference in this Award Agreement. The Participant hereby
acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all the
terms and provisions thereof. In the event of a conflict between any term or
provision contained herein and a term or provision of the Plan, the applicable
terms or provisions of the Plan shall govern and prevail.

         4. PERFORMANCE VESTING CRITERIA.

         (a)  Participant shall be entitled to have issued to Participant the
              number of shares of Stock subject to the Award upon the
              satisfaction of the performance condition(s) at the times or
              within the time frames (the "Performance Period(s)") set forth in
              Appendix A or in connection with a Change in Control as provided
              in Section 5. None of the foregoing performance conditions shall
              be deemed to have been satisfied unless the Committee shall have
              so certified in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code.

         (b)  If a performance condition required for the vesting of any portion
              of the Award is not satisfied by the end of the last Performance
              Period in Appendix A for achieving such performance conditions,
              such portion of the Award shall thereupon be immediately
              forfeited.

         (c)  At the end of each Performance Period, or at such earlier time
              selected by the Committee, the Committee shall determine whether
              and to what extent the performance condition(s) have been met.
              Such results shall be certified in writing by the Committee prior
              to any Stock being issued hereunder. Except as provided in Section
              5, in no event shall the Participant be deemed to be vested in any
              Award prior to the achievement of the performance conditions and
              certification of the Committee as provided above.

         5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control,
Participant shall immediately and automatically be entitled to have issued to
Participant any shares of Stock to which Participant has not yet become entitled
pursuant to Section 4 and which prior to the Change in Control had not been
forfeited (whether or not the performance condition(s) specified under Section 4
above has/have been satisfied).

         6. ISSUANCE OF STOCK. As soon as practicable after Participant's right
to have issued to Participant any share of Stock subject to the Award has vested
under Section 4 or Section 5 above, but in no event later than the 15th day of
the 3rd month following the close of the calendar year in which such vesting
occurs or, if later, the close of the fiscal year of the Company in which such
vesting occurs, the Company shall issue to Participant (or, if Participant has
died, to Participant's Beneficiary) such shares of Stock evidenced either by a
stock certificate or by such other evidence of record ownership as the Company
deems appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant's right to any
shares of Stock subject to the Award vests in connection with a Change in
Control, or has previously vested but such shares of Stock has not yet been
issued prior to the Change in Control, the Company in its discretion, to the
extent consistent with Section 409A of the Code and subject to such conditions
as the Company may prescribe (including, where vesting has not yet occurred, a
condition that the Stock be relinquished if the Change in Control does not
occur), may issue such shares of Stock to Participant sufficiently in advance of
the Change in Control to permit Participant to participate in the Change in
Control as a shareholder with respect to such shares of Stock.

                                       5

         7. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

         a.   If Participant's employment with the Company or any of its
              subsidiaries terminates during the Performance Period by reason of
              death or disability, Participant will continue to be eligible to
              receive payment of the Award, if any, that would otherwise be
              payable pursuant to paragraph 6, but any such amount shall be pro
              rated for the portion of the Performance Period that elapsed prior
              to this termination of employment.

         b.   If Participant's employment with the Company terminates during the
              Performance Period other than by reason of death or disability, or
              a Change in Control, the Award shall terminate and Participant
              shall immediately and automatically forfeit all rights to the
              Award, including to the receipt of any shares of Stock under the
              Award.

         8. NO RIGHTS OF A STOCKHOLDER OR TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT. The
Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to
the Stock underlying an Award unless and until certificates evidencing such
Stock shall have been issued by the Company to the Participant. Until such time,
the Participant shall not be entitled to dividends or distributions in respect
of any shares of Stock subject to an Award or to vote such Stock on any matter
submitted to the shareholders of the Company. This Agreement shall not confer
upon the Participant any right to continued employment by the Company.

         9. ADJUSTMENTS. The Award and the shares of Stock subject to the Award
are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4(c) of the Plan.

         10. WITHHOLDING. Participant or Beneficiary shall, no later than the
date on which any share of Stock is issued to Participant or Beneficiary and as
a condition to such transfer, pay to the Company in cash, or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any Federal, state, or local
taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such income. If
any taxes are required to be withheld prior to such issue of such share of Stock
(for example, upon the vesting of the right to receive such share), the Company
may require Participant or Beneficiary to pay such taxes timely in cash by
separate payment, may withhold the required taxes from other amounts payable to
Participant or Beneficiary, or may agree with Participant or Beneficiary on
other arrangements for the payment of such taxes, all as the Company determines
in its discretion.

         11. SECTION 83(b) NOT APPLICABLE. Because the Award does not give to
Participant a present ownership right in any Stock, but only a conditional right
to acquire shares of Stock in the future, Participant shall not be entitled to
make a so-called "83(b) election" with respect to the shares of Stock subject to
the Award.

         12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Award Agreement, Appendix A attached hereto,
and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the
Company and its Subsidiaries, and supersede all other agreements, whether
written or oral, with respect to the Award. The Participant agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive and final all decisions and interpretations of the Committee
of the Company with respect to any question that may arise under the Plan and
this Agreement.

         13. NOTICE. Unless otherwise provided herein, any notice or other
communication hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by registered or
certified mail. Any notice given by the Company to the Participant directed to
him at his address on file with the Company shall be effective to bind any other
person who shall acquire rights hereunder. The Company shall be under no
obligation whatsoever to advise or notify the Participant of the existence,
maturity or termination of any rights hereunder and the Participant shall be
deemed to have familiarized himself with all matters contained herein and in the
Plan which may affect any of the Participant's rights or privileges hereunder.

         14. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Nevada without giving effect
to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of
Nevada or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws
of any jurisdiction other than the State of Nevada.

performance-based deferred stock pursuant to the Plan and the terms and
conditions set forth herein;

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set

              (a) Participant shall be entitled to have issued to Participant

performance condition(s) at the times or within the time frames (the
"Performance Period(s)") set forth in Appendix A or in connection with a Change

              (b) If a performance condition required for the vesting of any
portion of the Award is not satisfied by the end of the last Performance Period
in Appendix A for achieving such performance conditions, such portion of the
Award shall thereupon be immediately forfeited.

              (c) At the end of each Performance Period, or at such earlier time
selected by the Committee, the Committee shall determine whether and to what
extent the performance condition(s) have been met. Such results shall be

         5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control,
Participant shall immediately and automatically be entitled to have issued to

vesting occurs, the Company shall issue to Participant (or, if Participant has

deems appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant's right to any
shares of Stock subject to the Award vests in connection with a Change in
Control, or has previously vested but such shares of Stock has not yet been
issued prior to the Change in Control, the Company in its discretion, to the
extent consistent with Section 409A of the Code and subject to such conditions
as the Company may prescribe (including, where vesting has not yet occurred, a
condition that the Stock be relinquished if the Change in Control does not
occur), may issue such shares of Stock to Participant sufficiently in advance of
the Change in Control to permit Participant to participate in the Change in
Control as a shareholder with respect to such shares of Stock.

         7. TERMINATION OF SERVICE.

              a. If Participant's directorship with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries terminates during the Performance Period by reason of death or
disability, Participant will continue to be eligible to receive payment of the
Award, if any, that would otherwise be payable pursuant to paragraph 6, but any

              b. If Participant's directorship with the Company terminates
during the Performance Period other than by reason of death or disability, or a
Change in Control, the Award shall terminate and Participant shall immediately
and automatically forfeit all rights to the Award, including to the receipt of
any shares of Stock under the Award.

         8. NO RIGHTS OF A STOCKHOLDER OR TO CONTINUED BOARD MEMBERSHIP. The

the Stock underlying an Award unless and until certificates evidencing such
Stock shall have been issued by the Company to the Participant. Until such time,
the Participant shall not be entitled to dividends or distributions in respect
of any shares of Stock subject to an Award or to vote such Stock on any matter
submitted to the shareholders of the Company. This Agreement shall not confer
upon the Participant any right to continued membership on the Company's Board of
Directors.

a condition to such transfer, pay to the Company in cash, or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any Federal, state, or local
taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such income. If
any taxes are required to be withheld prior to such issue of such share of Stock
(for example, upon the vesting of the right to receive such share), the Company
may require Participant or Beneficiary to pay such taxes timely in cash by
separate payment, may withhold the required taxes from other amounts payable to
Participant or Beneficiary, or may agree with Participant or Beneficiary on
other arrangements for the payment of such taxes, all as the Company determines
in its discretion.

         11. SECTION 83(b) NOT APPLICABLE. Because the Award does not give to
Participant a present ownership right in any Stock, but only a conditional right
to acquire shares of Stock in the future, Participant shall not be entitled to
make a so-called "83(b) election" with respect to the shares of Stock subject to
the Award.

         12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Award Agreement, Appendix A attached hereto,
and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the
Company and its Subsidiaries, and supersede all other agreements, whether
written or oral, with respect to the Award. The Participant agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive and final all decisions and interpretations of the Committee
of the Company with respect to any question that may arise under the Plan and
this Agreement. -

may be, being herein referred to as Participant's "Beneficiary") at the times
and upon achievement of the conditions specified in Section 4, subject to the
terms and conditions of the Plan and the Award Agreement. The Award is unfunded
and unsecured, and Participant's rights to any Stock hereunder shall be no
greater than those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. The Award
may not be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed
of, except for disposition at death as provided above. The Award does not
entitle Participant to any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of
Stock subject to the Award, unless and until such shares of Stock have been
issued to Participant. The Award is intended to constitute an arrangement that
qualifies as a "short term deferral" exempt from the requirements of Section
409A of the Code, and shall be construed accordingly. The Award is not intended
to constitute "qualified performance-based compensation" within the meaning of
Section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder.

         3. INCORPORATION OF PLAN. The Award is subject to the terms and
conditions of the Plan, as from time to time amended, the provisions of which
are incorporated by reference in this Award Agreement. The Participant hereby
acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all the
terms and provisions thereof. In the event of a conflict between any term or
provision contained herein and a term or provision of the Plan, the applicable
terms or provisions of the Plan shall govern and prevail.

         4. PERFORMANCE VESTING CRITERIA.

              (a) Participant shall be entitled to have issued to Participant
the number of shares of Stock subject to the Award upon the satisfaction of the
performance condition(s) at the times or within the time frames (the
"Performance Period(s)") set forth in Appendix A or in connection with a Change
in Control as provided in Section 5.

              (b) If a performance condition required for the vesting of any
portion of the Award is not satisfied by the end of the last Performance Period
in Appendix A for achieving such performance conditions, such portion of the
Award shall thereupon be immediately forfeited.

              (c) At the end of each Performance Period, or at such earlier time
selected by the Committee, the Committee shall determine whether and to what
extent the performance condition(s) have been met. Such results shall be
certified in writing by the Committee prior to any Stock being issued hereunder.
Except as provided in Section 5, in no event shall the Participant be deemed to
be vested in any Award prior to the achievement of the performance conditions
and certification of the Committee as provided above.

         5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control,
Participant shall immediately and automatically be entitled to have issued to
Participant any shares of Stock to which Participant has not yet become entitled
pursuant to Section 4 and which prior to the Change in Control had not been
forfeited (whether or not the performance condition(s) specified under Section 4
above has/have been satisfied).

         6. ISSUANCE OF STOCK. As soon as practicable after Participant's right
to have issued to Participant any share of Stock subject to the Award has vested
under Section 4 or Section 5 above, but in no event later than the 15th day of
the 3rd month following the close of the calendar year in which such vesting
occurs or, if later, the close of the fiscal year of the Company in which such
vesting occurs, the Company shall issue to Participant (or, if Participant has
died, to Participant's Beneficiary) such shares of Stock evidenced either by a
stock certificate or by such other evidence of record ownership as the Company
deems appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant's right to any
shares of Stock subject to the Award vests in connection with a Change in
Control, or has previously vested but such shares of Stock has not yet been
issued prior to the Change in Control, the Company in its discretion, to the
extent consistent with Section 409A of the Code and subject to such conditions
as the Company may prescribe (including, where vesting has not yet occurred, a
condition that the Stock be relinquished if the Change in Control does not
occur), may issue such shares of Stock to Participant sufficiently in advance of
the Change in Control to permit Participant to participate in the Change in
Control as a shareholder with respect to such shares of Stock.

                                       13
<PAGE>

         7. TERMINATION OF SERVICE.

              a. If Participant's directorship with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries terminates during the Performance Period by reason of death or
disability, Participant will continue to be eligible to receive payment of the
Award, if any, that would otherwise be payable pursuant to paragraph 6, but any
such amount shall be pro rated for the portion of the Performance Period that
elapsed prior to this termination of the directorship.

              b.

              c. If Participant's directorship with the Company terminates
during the Performance Period other than by reason of death or disability, or a
Change in Control, the Award shall terminate and Participant shall immediately
and automatically forfeit all rights to the Award, including to the receipt of
any shares of Stock under the Award.

              d.

         8. NO RIGHTS OF A STOCKHOLDER OR TO CONTINUED BOARD MEMBERSHIP. The
Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to
the Stock underlying an Award unless and until certificates evidencing such
Stock shall have been issued by the Company to the Participant. Until such time,
the Participant shall not be entitled to dividends or distributions in respect
of any shares of Stock subject to an Award or to vote such Stock on any matter
submitted to the shareholders of the Company. This Agreement shall not confer
upon the Participant any right to continued membership on the Company's Board of
Directors.

         9. ADJUSTMENTS. The Award and the shares of Stock subject to the Award
are subject to adjustment as provided in the Plan.

         10. WITHHOLDING. Participant or Beneficiary shall, no later than the
date on which any share of Stock is issued to Participant or Beneficiary and as
a condition to such transfer, pay to the Company in cash, or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any Federal, state, or local
taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such income. If
any taxes are required to be withheld prior to such issue of such share of Stock
(for example, upon the vesting of the right to receive such share), the Company
may require Participant or Beneficiary to pay such taxes timely in cash by
separate payment, may withhold the required taxes from other amounts payable to
Participant or Beneficiary, or may agree with Participant or Beneficiary on
other arrangements for the payment of such taxes, all as the Company determines
in its discretion.

         11. SECTION 83(b) NOT APPLICABLE. Because the Award does not give to
Participant a present ownership right in any Stock, but only a conditional right
to acquire shares of Stock in the future, Participant shall not be entitled to
make a so-called "83(b) election" with respect to the shares of Stock subject to
the Award.

         12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Award Agreement, Appendix A attached hereto,
and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the
Company and its Subsidiaries, and supersede all other agreements, whether
written or oral, with respect to the Award. The Participant agrees to accept as
binding, conclusive and final all decisions and interpretations of the Committee
of the Company with respect to any question that may arise under the Plan and
this Agreement.

                                       14
<PAGE>

         13. NOTICE. Unless otherwise provided herein, any notice or other
communication hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by registered or
certified mail. Any notice given by the Company to the Participant directed to
him at his address on file with the Company shall be effective to bind any other
person who shall acquire rights hereunder. The Company shall be under no
obligation whatsoever to advise or notify the Participant of the existence,
maturity or termination of any rights hereunder and the Participant shall be
deemed to have familiarized himself with all matters contained herein and in the
Plan which may affect any of the Participant's rights or privileges hereunder.

         14. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Nevada without giving effect
to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of
Nevada or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws
of any jurisdiction other than the State of Nevada .
