SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF THE PLAN

1.1 Plan. This Imperial Sugar Company Long Term Incentive Plan (“Plan”) was adopted by Imperial Sugar Company (the “Company”) in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan of Reorganization”) in Case No. 01-00140-01-00176 before the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware to reward certain key employees, who provide services to or for the Company or its Subsidiaries and Nonemployee Directors of the Company. Thereafter, on January 10, 2003, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved a proposed amendment of the Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company available for issuance to certain key employees and Nonemployee Directors under the Plan by 450,000 shares, subject to shareholder approval. The Company’s shareholders approved such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of the Company available for issuance under the Plan at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on February 28, 2003. On December 6, 2004, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved a proposed amendment of the Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company available for issuance to certain key employees and Nonemployee Directors under the Plan by 600,000 shares, subject to shareholder approval. The Company’s shareholders approved such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of the Company available for issuance under the Plan at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on February 1, 2005. On December 5, 2007, the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved a proposed amendment of the Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company available for issuance to certain key employees and Nonemployee Directors under the Plan by 250,000 shares, subject to shareholder approval. The Company’s shareholders approved such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock of the Company available for issuance under the Plan at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on January 29, 2008. On December 9, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a proposed amendment and restatement of the Plan to, among other changes, increase the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company available for issuance to certain key employees and Nonemployee Directors under the Plan by 500,000 shares, subject to shareholder approval.

1.2 Objectives. This Plan is designed to attract and retain key employees and Nonemployee Directors of the Company or any Subsidiaries which may later be created or acquired and is maintained in order to encourage a sense of proprietorship and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company and such Subsidiaries. These objectives are to be accomplished by making Awards under this Plan.

ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

5.1 The Committee.

(a) This Plan shall be administered by the Committee, except as otherwise provided herein. The Committee shall consist of at least two Nonemployee Directors. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Committee shall have full and exclusive power and authority to administer this Plan and to take all actions that are specifically contemplated hereby or are necessary or appropriate in connection with the administration hereof. The Committee shall also have full and exclusive power to interpret this Plan and to adopt such rules, regulations and guidelines for carrying out this Plan as it may deem necessary or proper, all of which powers shall be exercised in the best interests of the Company and in keeping with the objectives of this Plan. The Committee may, in its discretion, subject only to the legal requirements or restrictions which relate to Awards, accelerate the vesting or exercisability of an Award, eliminate or make less restrictive any restrictions contained in an Award, waive any restriction or other provision of

this Plan or an Award, or otherwise amend or modify an Award in any manner that is either (i) not adverse to the Participant to whom the Award was granted, or (ii) consented to by such Participant. In the event the Committee modifies or amends an Award, the new Award shall be compliant with the terms of this Plan. The Committee, in its discretion, may also provide for the extension of the exercisability of an Award; provided, that with respect to Awards relating to SARs and Nonqualified Stock Options, the exercise period shall not be extended to a date later than the earlier of (i) the latest date upon which the Award could have expired by its original terms under any circumstances, or (ii) the tenth anniversary of the original date of the grant of the Award. The Committee may make an Award to an individual whom it expects to become an Employee within the next six months, provided that such Award shall be subject to the individual actually becoming an Employee within such time period. The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan or in any Award in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable to further the Plan purposes. Any decision of the Committee in the interpretation and administration of this Plan shall lie within its sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties concerned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall not make any revision, correction, or other modification to an Award granted under this Plan if such revision, correction, or modification would result in the deferral of compensation subject to Code Section 409A.

(b) The Board shall have the same powers, duties and authority to administer the Plan with respect to Nonemployee Director Awards as the Committee retains with respect to other Awards as described above.

5.2 Liability of Committee Members. No member of the Committee or officer of the Company to whom the Committee has delegated authority in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.3 of this Plan shall be liable for anything done or omitted to be done by him or her, by any member of the Committee or by any officer of the Company in connection with the performance of any duties under this Plan, except for his or her own willful misconduct or as expressly provided by statute.

AWARDS

6.1 Employee Awards.

(a) The Committee shall determine the type or types of Employee Awards to be made under this Plan and shall designate from time to time the individuals who are to be the recipients of such Awards. Each Employee Award shall be embodied in an Employee Award Agreement, which shall contain such terms, conditions and limitations as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion and shall be signed by the individual to whom the Award is made and by an Authorized Officer for and on behalf of the Company. Employee Awards may consist of those reflected in Section 6.1(a) and may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem. Employee Awards may also be made in combination or in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to, grants or rights under this Plan or any other employee plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including the plan of any acquired entity. An Employee Award may provide for the grant or issuance of additional, replacement or alternative Awards upon the occurrence of specified events, including the exercise of the original Employee Award granted to a Participant. All or part of an Employee Award may be subject to conditions established by the Committee, which may include, but are not limited to, continuous service with the Company and its Subsidiaries, achievement of specific business objectives, increases in specified indices, attainment of specified growth rates and other comparable measurements of performance. Upon the termination of employment by a Participant who is an Employee any unexercised, deferred, unvested or unpaid Awards shall be treated as set forth in the applicable Employee Award Agreement.

(i) Option. An Employee Award may be in the form of an Option. An Option awarded pursuant to this Plan may consist of an Incentive Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option. The price at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased upon the exercise of an Option shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. The term of the Option shall extend no more than 10 years after the date of grant. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Option awarded pursuant to this Plan, including the term of any Option and the date or dates upon which it becomes exercisable, shall be determined by the Committee. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to an Option awarded pursuant to this Paragraph (i) shall be fixed on or before the date of grant. Further, no Nonqualified Stock Option awarded pursuant to this Paragraph

(i) shall include any feature for the deferral of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the later of (i) the exercise or disposition of the option under Treasury Regulation Section 1.83-7 or (ii) the time the Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of the option first becomes substantially vested (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.83-3(b)).

(ii) SAR. An Employee Award may be in the form of an SAR that satisfies the conditions of Section 2.1(ee). The term of an SAR shall extend no more than 10 years after the date of grant. Subject to the foregoing provision, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any SAR awarded pursuant to this Plan, including the term of any SAR and the date or dates upon which it becomes exercisable, shall be determined by the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a SAR granted pursuant to this Paragraph (ii) include any feature for the deferral of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the exercise of the SAR.

(iii) Stock Award. An Employee Award may be in the form of a Stock Award, including the award of Restricted Stock or conditional stock units. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Stock Award granted pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Committee.

(iv) Cash Award. An Employee Award may be in the form of a Cash Award. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Cash Award granted pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Committee.

(v) Performance Award. Without limiting the type or number of Employee Awards that may be made under the other provisions of this Plan, an Employee Award may be in the form of a Performance Award. A Performance Award shall be paid, vested or otherwise deliverable solely on account of the attainment of one or more pre-established, objective Performance Goals established by the Committee prior to the earlier to occur of (i) 90 days after the commencement of such period of service to which the Performance Goal relates and (ii) the lapse of 25% of such period of service (as scheduled in good faith at the time the goal is established), and in any event while the outcome is substantially uncertain. A Performance Goal is objective if a third party having knowledge of the relevant facts could determine whether the goal is met. Such a Performance Goal may be based on one or more business criteria that apply to the individual, one or more business units of the Company, or the Company as a whole, and may include one or more of the following: revenues or sales (including specific types or categories thereof), based on units and/or dollars; revenue or sales growth; revenue or sales growth rate(s); production, in aggregate or by facility; shipments, in aggregate or by facility; net income measures (including income after capital costs and income before or after taxes) or EBITDA, absolute and/or growth rates; operating income, absolute and/or growth rates; earnings, absolute and/or growth rates; EPS, absolute and/or growth rates; economic value added; return on shareholders’ equity; return on capital or invested capital; risk-adjusted return on capital or invested capital; return on average assets; price per share of common stock; stock price measures (including growth measures); total shareholder return; total market value; profitability/profit margins; return on revenue measures; market share (in aggregate or by segment); costs (including specific types of categories thereof); cash flow measures, including cash flow return on capital, cash flow return on tangible capital, cash flow and net cash flow; operating cash flow; working capital; budgeted expenses (operating or capital); weighted average cost of capital; value measures, including ethics compliance, environmental and safety performance and compliance, employee satisfaction and customer satisfaction; and corporate and business unit specific operational and financial performance. A Performance Goal may be absolute or indexed, and, unless otherwise stated, a Performance Goal need not be based upon an increase or positive result under a particular business criterion and could include, for example, maintaining the status quo or limiting economic losses (measured, in each case, by reference to specific business criteria). In interpreting Plan provisions applicable to Performance Goals and Performance Awards, it is the intent of the Plan to conform with the standards of Section 162(m) of the Code and Treasury Regulation § 1.162-27(e)(2), and the Committee in establishing such goals and interpreting the Plan shall be guided by such provisions. Prior to the payment of any compensation based on the achievement of Performance Goals, the Committee must certify in writing that applicable Performance Goals and any of the material terms thereof were, in fact, satisfied. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Performance Awards made pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Committee.

6.2 Nonemployee Director Awards. The Board may grant Nonemployee Director Awards to the Nonemployee Directors of the Company from time to time in accordance with Section 6.2. Nonemployee Director Awards may consist of those listed in Section 6.2 and may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem. Each Nonemployee Director Award may, in the discretion of the Board, be embodied in a Nonemployee Director Award Agreement,

which shall contain such terms, conditions and limitations as shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion and, if required by the Board, shall be accepted by the Participant to whom the Nonemployee Director Award is granted and signed by an Authorized Officer for and on behalf of the Company.

(a) Stock Awards. A Nonemployee Director Award may be in the form of a Stock Award. A Nonemployee Director may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of any portion of a Stock Award until he or she terminates service as a Nonemployee Director, and any attempt to sell, transfer, assign, pledge or encumber any portion of the Stock Award prior to such time shall have no effect. Any additional terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Stock Awards granted to a Nonemployee Director pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Board.

(b) Performance Awards. Without limiting the type or number of Nonemployee Director Awards that may be made under the other provisions of this Plan, a Nonemployee Director Award may be in the form of a Performance Award. A Nonemployee Director may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of any portion of the Performance Award until he or she terminates service as a Nonemployee Director, and any attempt to sell, transfer, assign, pledge or encumber any portion of the Performance Award prior to such time shall have no effect. Any additional terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Performance Awards granted to a Nonemployee Director pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Board.

Article Eight

PAYMENT OF AWARDS

8.1 Payment of Awards Generally. Payment of Awards may be made in the form of cash or Common Stock, or a combination thereof, and may include such restrictions as the Committee shall determine, including, in the case of Common Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions. If payment of an Award is made in the form of Restricted Stock, the applicable Award Agreement relating to such shares shall specify whether they are to be issued at the beginning or end of the Restriction Period. In the event that shares of Restricted Stock are to be issued at the beginning of the Restriction Period, the certificates evidencing such shares (to the extent that such shares are so evidenced) shall contain appropriate legends and restrictions that describe the terms and conditions of the restrictions applicable thereto. In the event that shares of Restricted Stock are to be issued at the end of the Restricted Period, the right to receive such shares shall be evidenced by book entry registration or in such other manner as the Committee may determine.

8.2 Deferral. With the approval of the Committee, amounts payable in respect of Awards may be deferred and paid either in the form of installments or as a lump sum payment. The Committee may permit selected Participants to elect to defer payments of some or all types of Awards in accordance with procedures established by the Committee. Any deferred payment of an Award, whether elected by the Participant or specified by the Award Agreement or by

the Committee, may be forfeited if and to the extent that the Award Agreement so provides. Any deferral of an Award, whether by Participant election or otherwise, and any payment or settlement of a deferred Award shall be made in a manner that complies with the requirements of Code Section 409A.

8.3 Dividends, Earnings and Interest. Rights to dividends or Dividend Equivalents may be extended to and made part of any Award consisting of shares of Common Stock or units denominated in shares of Common Stock, subject to such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee may establish; provided, however, that dividends and Dividend Equivalents may not be paid with respect to unvested Performance Awards. The Committee may also establish rules and procedures for the crediting of interest and other earnings on deferred cash payments and on Dividend Equivalents for Awards consisting of shares of Common Stock or units denominated in shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless specifically set forth in an Award Agreement in a manner compliant with Code Section 409A, in no event shall any rights granted or interest or other earnings credited under this Section 8.3 be paid to the Participant later than the last day of the Short-Term Deferral Period.

8.4 Substitution of Awards. Subject to the limitations of Section 5.1 and Article Seven, at the discretion of the Committee, a Participant who has been granted an Award may be offered an election to substitute an Award received for another Award or Awards of the same or different type; provided, however, no such substitution shall be made without prior shareholder approval if it would result in the reduction of the exercise price of an outstanding Option or SAR or issuance of an Option or SAR in exchange for the cancellation of an Option or SAR with a higher exercise price. Shareholder approval shall not be required for actions taken by the Board or the Compensation Committee pursuant to Article 14.2 of the Plan.

8.5 Cash-out of Awards. At the discretion of the Committee, an Award that is an Option or SAR may be settled by a cash payment equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date of exercise and the exercise price of the Award, multiplied by the number of shares with respect to which the Award is exercised.

Article Nine

OPTION EXERCISE

The price at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased under an Option shall be paid in full at the time of exercise in cash or, if elected by the optionee, the optionee may purchase such shares by means of tendering Common Stock or surrendering another Award, including Restricted Stock, valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, or any combination thereof. The Committee shall determine acceptable methods for Participants to tender Common Stock or other Awards. The Committee may provide for procedures to permit the exercise or purchase of such Awards by use of the proceeds to be received from the sale of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an Award. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event shares of Restricted Stock are tendered as consideration for the exercise of an Option, a number of the shares issued upon the exercise of the Option, equal to the number of shares of Restricted Stock used as consideration therefor, shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock so submitted as well as any additional restrictions that may be imposed by the Committee. The Committee may adopt additional rules and procedures regarding the exercise of Options from time to time, provided that such rules and procedures are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Article Nine.

Article Ten

CHANGE OF CONTROL

10.1 Change of Control. In the event of a “Change of Control” of the Company, the Committee may, in its discretion, without obtaining shareholder approval, take any one or more of the following actions, with respect to any Participant:

(a) Accelerate the exercise dates of any or all SARs or Options or make some or all such SARs or Options immediately fully vested and exercisable;

(b) Accelerate the Restriction Period (lapse of forfeiture provision) of any Restricted Stock subject to restrictions;

(c) Grant SARs to holders of outstanding Options;

(d) Pay cash to any or all holders of Options in exchange for the cancellation of their outstanding Options;

(e) Make payment for any outstanding Performance Awards based on such amounts as the Committee may determine;

(f) Grant new Awards to any Participants; or

(g) Make any other adjustments or amendments to outstanding Awards and substitute new Awards for outstanding Awards; provided, all adjustments, amendments, and/or substitutions shall be made in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A, to the extent applicable.

Article Eleven

TAXES

The Company shall have the right to deduct applicable taxes from any Employee Award payment and withhold, at the time of delivery or vesting of cash or shares of Common Stock under this Plan, an appropriate amount of cash or number of shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof for payment of taxes required by law or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes. The Committee may also permit withholding to be satisfied by the transfer to the Company of shares of Common Stock theretofore owned by the holder of the Employee Award with respect to which withholding is required. If shares of Common Stock are used to satisfy tax withholding, such shares shall be valued based on the Fair Market Value when the tax withholding is required to be made. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee may provide for loans, on either a short term or demand basis, from the Company to a Participant to permit the payment of taxes required by law.

Article Twelve

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION

The Board or the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board may amend, modify, suspend or terminate this Plan for the purpose of meeting or addressing any changes in legal requirements or for any other purpose permitted by law, except that (i) no amendment or alteration that would adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any Award previously granted to such Participant shall be made without the consent of such Participant and (ii) no amendment or alteration shall be effective prior to its approval by the shareholders of the Company to the extent such approval is required by applicable legal requirements.

Article Thirteen

ASSIGNABILITY

ADJUSTMENTS

14.1 General. The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any manner the right or power of the Company or its shareholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the capital stock of the Company or its business or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock (whether or not such issue is prior to, on a parity with or junior to the Common Stock) or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding of any kind, whether or not of a character similar to that of the acts or proceedings enumerated above.

16.3 Awards Subject to Company Policies; Recoupment. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, including Article Twelve hereof, any Awards made under the Plan are subject to the policies of the Company in effect as of the date of such Award. Without limiting the foregoing, by accepting an Award under this Plan the Participant acknowledges and agrees that such Award, including any proceeds thereof, may become subject to forfeiture, cancellation or recoupment pursuant to any recoupment or clawback policy of the Company or as required pursuant to the listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which Common Stock is listed.
