<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This Macadamia Nut Purchase Agreement is entered into on the date set
forth below by and between Purdyco International, Ltd., a Hawaii Corporation,
d.b.a. Island Princess, (&#147;IP&#148;) and ML Macadamia Orchards, L.P<b><font style="font-weight:bold;">. (&#147;MLP&#148;).</font></b></font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Whereas, IP is experienced and capable in all aspects of the business
of processing and marketing macadamia nuts;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Whereas, MLP is the legal and beneficial owner of macadamia nut crop
produced in certain macadamia nut orchards in Hawaii;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Whereas, IP desires to purchase wet-in-shell (&#147;WIS&#148;) macadamia nuts
from MLP as provided herein;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Now, therefore, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants
and agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><u><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">1.&#160;
Term</font></u>.&#160;
This Agreement shall be deemed to have commenced for all purposes as of
January&nbsp;1, 2007 and shall continue in full force and effect until
December&nbsp;31, 2011, unless terminated earlier as provided herein.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><u><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">2.&#160;
Purchase and Sale.</font></u>&#160; MLP agrees to sell and IP agrees to purchase
at least 1.9 million pounds and no more than 2.1 million pounds of WIS
macadamia nuts annually from various MLP orchards. Should the parties mutually
agree in writing, up to 3 million additional pounds may be sold annually on the
same terms and conditions. For purposes of this provision, WIS pounds shall be
defined as field pounds, adjusted to 20% moisture and 30% SK/DIS kernel
recovery.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="font-size:10.0pt;margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><u><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">3.&#160;
Delivery</font></u>.&#160;
MLP shall harvest macadamia nuts and fill containers suitable for
transport as mutually agreed upon, and deliver husked WIS nuts to IP&#146;s processing
plant. The Parties acknowledge that the crop must be harvested and delivered in
a timely manner or the nut quality will be adversely affected. Accordingly, IP
agrees to accept delivery of the crop as harvested, up to a maximum of 150,000
WIS pounds per week and shall have the capacity to unload up to 40,000 pounds
per hour. The Island Princess processing facility will be open to receive
macadamia nut deliveries Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM.&#160; Saturday deliveries during peak harvest
periods will be accepted with a minimum 24 hour notice to the Kea&#146;au GM (Office
Phone; 966-7451, ext 203).&#160; Should IP be
unable to accept deliveries up to this level, MLP shall provide samples of the
husked WIS nuts intended for delivery. When the delayed nuts are actually
delivered, payment shall be based on these samples. MLP recognizes a duty to
mitigate any damage by providing forecasts of intended deliveries and by
selling delayed deliveries to other processors with excess capacity if at all
possible.</p>

Annual Contract Price.</font></u>&#160; The Parties shall mutually agree upon a
contract price for each six-month period (January-June&nbsp;and July-December)
under the contract. The pricing for January-June&nbsp;shall be agreed to no
later than November&nbsp;15<sup>th</sup> of the preceding year. The pricing for
July-December&nbsp;shall be agreed to no later than the preceding
May&nbsp;15th.</p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Should the Parties fail to agree upon a price by the established dates,
the Parties shall mutually engage an independent third party broker or
specialist to (1)&nbsp;survey the macadamia market for the preceding crop year,
(2)&nbsp;determine the average price per pound for bulk premium (Hawaiian and
Australian) Style II macadamia nuts and (3)&nbsp;issue a certified report to
the parties. The procedures for such review are outlined in Exhibit&nbsp;A.
Either party may review or challenge the content of the report within 15 days
of issuance, in which case the parties shall attempt to resolve the matter
through good faith negotiation. Should the parties fail to reach a final agreement,
the objecting party may, at its own cost, engage a second qualified Specialist
to perform another price survey. The results of the two surveys shall be
averaged to determine the Global Macadamia Kernel Price. The Global Macadamia
Price as determined by the Specialist(s) shall be converted to a WIS contract
price using a conversion factor of 15.2% of the Global Macadamia Kernel Price.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In the event that a contract price has not been established by the
beginning of any six-month contract period, any nuts delivered will be paid at
an estimated price equal to the price in the preceding period. Once the new
pricing is determined, an adjustment shall be calculated and reflected in the
subsequent monthly payment.</font></p>

that the contract price for any six-month contract period is less than 75 cents
per pound, MLP shall be entitled to terminate this agreement at its sole option
by providing 60 days written notice.&#160; In
the event that the contract price for any six-month contract period is more
than $1.20 per pound, IP shall be entitled to terminate this agreement at its
sole option by providing 60 days written notice.</p>

(B)&nbsp;Suspension of WIS Macadamia Nut Delivery.</font></u>- In the event that rocks
contained in a delivery, as determined by the WIS macadamia nuts sampling
process exceeds 0.5% of the gross weight of the delivery sample, or when
&#147;Extraneous&#148; matter ( as defined in Exhibit&nbsp;B) exceeds 5% of the gross
weight of delivery sample, IP has the right to refuse further deliveries of WIS
macadamia nuts until satisfied that MLP has taken the necessary measures to
correct the problem at their husking plant.&#160;
IP will inform MLP immediately when extraneous materials exceed the
established criteria and allow reasonable time for MLP to mitigate the problem.</p>

at the Pahala and Kea&#146;au husking stations or from a public scale located no
more than 10 miles from the Island Princess processing facility.&#160; Upon delivery, weigh or verify certified
weight ticket to determine the Gross Weight of each wet-in-shell (&#147;WIS&#148;) shipment.
A shipment (&#147;shipment&#148;) shall mean one load delivered on a single day.&#160; Additional loads delivered on the same day
will be treated as individual shipments, i.e. separate weights and
samples.&#160; IP will provide, upon delivery,
a receipt that states the weight of each shipment delivered by MLP. (The
delivery and accompanying sample will be identified by lot.&#160; The lot designation will be by date and time
of receipt.&#160; A delivery, for example, on
March&nbsp;3, 2007 at 2:00PM shall be designated &#147;MLP3/3/07-1400&#148;.</font></p>

nuts.&#160; When IP installs a continuous
sampler IP will adhere to the procedures as stated below.&#160; A 60 lbs. (minimum weight) sample will be
collected and will accompany the shipment at the time of delivery.&#160; This sample will be used by IP to determine
the moisture content, the amount of extraneous material, kernel quality and recovery.&#160; From this sample - using accepted grab
procedures -&#160; two sub samples, designated
&#147;A&#148; and &#147;B&#148;, of 20lbs. each shall be collected.&#160;
Sub-sample &#147;A&#148; shall be used for analysis as specified in the following
