Macadamia Nut Purchase Agreement

Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Corporation and ML Macadamia Orchards, L.P.

This Macadamia Nut Purchase Agreement is entered into on the date set forth below by and between Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Corporation (MLMNC-Buyer) and ML Macadamia Orchards, L.P. (MLP-Seller).

14.         Term. This Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced for all purposes as of January 1, 2006 and shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2011 unless terminated earlier as provided herein.

15.         Purchase and Sale. MLP agrees to sell and MLMNC agrees to purchase approximately 6.3 million pounds of Wet in Shell (WIS) macadamia nuts annually from various MLP orchards. MLP will deliver all Macadamia Nuts to MLMNC’s Kea’au Plant located at 1 Macadamia Nut Rd. Hilo, Hawaii. The Macadamia Nuts may be delivered to MLMNC’s Kea’au Plant as Wet in Husk (WIH) or WIS. Macadamia Nuts delivered as WIH will be husked at MLMNC’s Kea’au Husking Plant. MLMNC will charge its direct and allocated costs of husking to MLP, but no more than currently being charged by MLP.

16.         Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for the Macadamia Wet in Shell will be determined on a 20% moisture and 30% Saleable Kernel recovery to Dry in Shell (SK/DIS) basis. The price per pound adjusted to 20% moisture and 30% SK/DIS is outlined in Exhibit A. The Procedures for determining moisture and SK/DIS are outlined in Exhibit B. Payment calculations are outlined on Exhibit C

17.         Payment Terms. Payment shall be made within 30 days of the date of delivery of WIH or WIS to MLMNC’s Kea’au Plant.

18.         Sampling and Testing for determining Purchase Price. The procedures to be used in sampling and testing for moisture and kernel recovery (SK/DIS) are set forth in Exhibit B. The Purchase Price will be determined based on the QA Data. Any deviations from the sampling and testing procedures shall be by mutual agreement only.

19.         Accounting and Reports. MLMNC will keep full and accurate records and accounts for all WIS deliveries made by MLP. All lab results will be provided weekly and corresponding calculations for payment will be provided to MLP at the time of payment. What constitutes QA data are outlined in Exhibit B.

MLP and MLMNC will be entitled to observe and audit the others’ sampling and testing process upon reasonable notice and will be entitled to any information necessary or desirable to verify the accuracy of the nut price or payment. To the extent that information is shared between the parties hereunder and is not otherwise in the public domain, both parties agree to keep such information confidential except as may be required by law or in connection with any litigation between the parties.

20.         Termination. The parties may terminate this Agreement at any time by mutual agreement in writing. In the event that any party shall be in default, the non-defaulting party may terminate this Agreement at any time by delivering written notice of such termination to the defaulting party.

Termination shall be effective 30 days from such uncorrected notice and all deliveries prior to termination shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this agreement.

21.         Notice. Any and all notices, demands or other communications (collectively, “notice”) requiring or desired to be given hereunder by either party shall be in writing and shall be validly given or made to the other party or his authorized representative at the address set forth below, if served either personally or if deposited in the United States mails, certified or registered, postage prepaid, or if sent by fax.

Nut in Shell Sampling and Testing Procedures /QA Data

Sampling

Nuts delivered as Wet in Husk (WIH) will be husked for individual growers by batch method at MLMNC’s Kea’au husking plant. Following husking, each batch of Wet in Shell (WIS) will be weighed by means of a certified “Batch Scale”. The total weight of the batch will be recorded and this will constitute the “Gross Pounds Received” (“GPR”).

Wet in Shell (WIS) samples from nuts husked at MLMNC’s husking plant will be drawn randomly by means of a continuous sampler located on the discharge chute of the “Batch Scale”.

Nuts delivered as Wet in Shell (WIS) will be accepted but they must be accompanied by a certified weight ticket for each WIS load delivered. This will constitute the “Gross Pounds Received” (“GPR”).

For nuts delivered as WIS, samples will be drawn randomly by means of a continuous sampler located on the discharge chute of the WIS receiving station.

WIS samples as described above may vary in size but at no time will the sample weigh less than 20 pounds.

Testing

The WIS samples will be used for determining the amount of extraneous material (as defined below), moisture content, kernel quality and kernel recovery for their representative deliveries.

Weigh the entire sample and record the weight as the Gross Sample Weight (“GSW”). Remove all extraneous material from the sample, weigh and record the weight of all extraneous material. The remainder of the sample will be thoroughly mixed and divided into two equal sub-samples A and B.

Extraneous Material is defined as

•                  Foreign material

•                  Trash

•                  Husk (loose pieces)

•                  Husks from unhusked Nuts

•                  Empty Nuts

•                  Rat Damaged

•                  Sticks

•                  Rocks

•                  Mechanically fractured shell where the kernel is exposed (applicable only when WIS nuts husked by MLP)

•                  Germinated Nuts

•                  Peewee Nuts < 5/8 inch in diameter (test peewee nuts <5/8” for quality and recovery)

The ratio of weight for the Extraneous material to the Gross Sample Weight (“GSW”) will be applied to the “GPR” to determine the Gross Weight WIS (“GW”) delivered (after Extraneous material).

Moisture content will be determined by drawing a one pound sample from each of the sub-samples A and B (“moisture sample”). The moisture sample will be weighed and the weight recorded. The moisture sample will be dried in a convection oven at 105 degrees Celsius (220 degrees Fahrenheit) for 48 hours. After drying the dried sample will be weighed and the weight recorded. The percentage moisture “M” will be determined by dividing the difference in weight prior to and after drying by the weight prior to drying.

Sub Samples A and B will be weighed separately and dried at a temperature of approximately 35 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit) for 7 days(Note: subject to revision following evaluation of moisture sensor and oven drying procedures. The revision must be mutually agreed upon by both parties). After drying, sub sample A will be weighed and the weight recorded as the Dry in Shell (“DIS”) weight “X”. Sub sample B will be held for 30 days and may be used for confirmation of the results for sub sample A.

Crack sub sample A and separate the shells from the kernels. Determine the weight of the recovered raw kernel. Inspect the raw kernel and separate unsaleable kernels and record the weights of the following categories

a)              Stink Bug damage       (> 2 spots)

b)             Other Insect damage

i.                  Koa Seed Worm

ii.               Tropical Nut Borer

c)              Mold

d)             Germinated

e)              Immature/Shrivel

f)                Bacterial damage

g)             Total a) through f) and record as raw unsaleable

Roast remaining kernel from sub sample A using Commercial Criteria. Using the Hawaii Department of Agriculture “Standards for Roasted Macadamia Nuts” separate out and weigh the unsaleable kernel and record weight as

h) Roasted Unsaleable

Each category for unsaleable kernel will be reported by weight and by % of total weight of recovered raw kernel.

Weigh remaining Saleable kernel from sub sample A and record as Saleable Kernel (“SK”).

Determine Kernel Recovery (“KR”) where

KR = SK/X

QA Data

The QA data will be provided by MLMNC for each delivery. The QA Data will include Gross Pounds Received, Moisture content (from moisture sample), % Extraneous Material (from sample), % total Unsaleable kernel (from sample), % Unsaleable kernel by category (from sample) and Kernel Recovery “KR” (SK/DIS).

Payment Calculations

Payment Calculations

The payable pounds for each delivery will be calculated by

Converting “GW” of each delivery to 20% moisture (“WM”) where

WM = GW*(1-M)/(1-.2)

Converting “WM” to payable pounds (“P”) @ 30% KR where

P = WM*(KR/.3)

Sample Calculation:

Gross Pounds Received “GPR” = 100,000 lbs

% Extraneous Material (from sample) = 2%

Moisture “M” (from sample) = 23%

Kernel Recovery “KR” (from sample) = 28%

Price (from Exhibit A) = $0.75/lb

WM = 98,000 lbs * (1-.23)/(1-.2) = 94,325 lbs

P = 94,325 lbs * (.28/.3) =  88,036 lbs

Payment =  88,036* $0.75/lb = $ 66,027.
