ADDENDUM A—No Genetically Modified Organisms

MARKON does not accept any MARKON branded or brand approved Product from Seller which is produced with genetic engineering and is therefore considered to be a “GMO.”

For purposes of this agreement, a “Genetically Modified Organism” (GMO) is any food produced by genetic engineering using recombinant DNA technology to manually add, delete, or reposition DNA in an organism.

If Seller has a credible reason to believe that a product that it is supplying to Markon may be genetically engineered, Seller is obligated to investigate and take steps appropriate to confirm that MARKON branded or brand approved Product supplied by Seller is not produced with genetic engineering.

Seller acknowledges that the use of genetic engineering in the production of the MARKON branded or brand approved Product will cause the MARKON branded or brand approved Product to fail the Seller’s Product Guarantee under this instrument and the Seller agrees to indemnify, defend, release and hold MARKON harmless for all reasonable loss, cost and damage resulting therefrom in addition to me other obligations of Seller under this instrument.

This Addendum amends and is added to that certain Agreement for Purchase of MARKON Branded and Brand Approved Produce between the parties.

In witness whereof, this Addendum has been signed by the parties, effective June 27, 2016.

AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE OF

MARKON BRANDED AND BRAND APPROVED PRODUCT

ADDENDUM B—Markon’s Supplier Code of Conduct

Markon’s Supplier Code of Conduct applies to all Markon branded and brand approved Product Sellers, suppliers and their vendors (collectively “Suppliers”) and sets forth Markon’s expectations for these Suppliers. All Suppliers must treat all individuals in an ethical manner and act with integrity. All Suppliers must comply with all applicable national, state or regional, and local laws and regulations in the countries in which they operate. Supplier shall inform Markon promptly in writing of any investigation, finding, or sanction by any government authority, third-party auditor, or public source regarding the condition of Suppliers’ produce or facilities or the produce or facilities of Suppliers’ vendors, agents, employees, affiliates or representatives that may present a health risk or violate the business or Product guarantees under this Code of Conduct.

Integrity and Fair Competition

Corruption, extortion, and embezzlement are prohibited. Suppliers shall not pay or accept bribes, or participate in other illegal inducements in business or government relationships. Suppliers shall conduct their business consistent with fair and vigorous competition and in compliance with all applicable anti-trust laws. Suppliers shall employ fair business practices.

Ethical Behavior

Markon expects Suppliers to conduct their business in accordance with the highest ethical standards and to have controls in place that prohibit and detect the misuse of company assets, corruption, bribery, improper gifts, extortion, and embezzlement. All Supplier’s business dealings should be fair, legal, and honest.

Identification of Concerns

All workers should be encouraged to report concerns or illegal activities in the workplace, without threat of reprisal, intimidation, or harassment. Suppliers shall investigate and take corrective action if needed.

Privacy

Suppliers shall safeguard and make only proper use of confidential information to ensure that company and worker privacy rights are protected.

Human Rights

Suppliers shall be committed to uphold the human rights of workers and to treat them with dignity and respect. MARKON relies upon human rights definitions as set forth by the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights (UNDHR) http://www.un.org/en/documents/udhr. Suppliers shall provide a workplace free of harsh and inhumane treatment, including any sexual harassment, sexual abuse, corporal punishment, mental or physical coercion or verbal abuse of workers and no threat of any such treatment.

Freely Chosen Employment

Suppliers shall not use forced, bonded, indentured, or involuntary prison labor. Workers are not required to lodge “deposits” or their identity papers with their employer and are free to leave their employer after reasonable notice. Markon prohibits any use of slavery, human trafficking, or forced labor in its supply chain, and Suppliers shall take reasonable precautions to ensure that its own suppliers do not engage in these practices.

Child Labor and Young Workers

Suppliers shall not use child labor. The term “child” refers to any person employed under the age of 15 (or 14 where the law of the country peITT1its), or under the age for completing compulsory education, or under the minimum age for employment in the country, whichever is greatest.

Non-Discrimination

Suppliers shall provide a workplace free of harassment and discrimination. Discrimination for reasons such as race, color, age, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, disability, religion, political affiliation, union membership, or marital status is not tolerated. Suppliers shall further comply with all provisions of the U.S. federal governments Executive Orders 11246 http://www.dol.gov/ofccp/regs/compliance/ca_ 11246.htm and 11375 http://www.dol.gov/ofccp/regs/statutes/eol 1246.htm related to equal employment opportunity, including providing necessary documentation to the U.S. federal government to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations and orders.

Hiring Practices

Suppliers must implement hiring practices that accurately verify Suppliers’ workers’ age and legal right to work in the country of their respective employment prior to employment. All terms and conditions of employment including, but not limited to, pay, hiring, benefits, training, promotion, termination, and retirement must be based on an individual’s ability and willingness to do the job.

Compensation

As is applicable to the work performed, Suppliers must compensate all workers with wages, overtime premiums, and benefits that meet or exceed legal standards in the country where the work is performed or collective agreements to which the Supplier has agreed, whichever are higher.

Suppliers are also encouraged to provide wages that meet local industry standards, to provide wages and benefits that are sufficient to meet workers’ basic needs and provide some discretionary income.

Wages, Benefits and Working Hours

Suppliers shall pay workers according to applicable wage laws, including minimum wages, overtime hours, mandated benefits and breaks or periods of rest.

All workers shall be provided with written and understandable information about their employment conditions in respect to wages before they enter employment and about the particulars of their wages for the pay period concerned each time that they are paid.

Suppliers are also expected to communicate with the worker whether overtime is required and the wages to be paid for such overtime.

Deductions from wages as a disciplinary measure shall not be permitted nor shall any deductions from wages not provided for by national law be permitted without the expressed permission of the worker concerned. All disciplinary measures should be recorded.

Gifts

Entertainment and gift exchanges may be interpreted as a conflict of interest Markon discourages entertainment that could appear excessive or could appear to influence a business decision.

Gifts include such things as goods, services, and trips. No Markon associate or Supplier shall give or receive any gift or favor that could reasonably be viewed as being given or received to gain a business advantage.

Freedom of Association

Suppliers shall respect the rights of workers, as set forth in local laws, to associate freely, join or not join labor unions, seek representation and join workers’ councils. Where the right to freedom of association and collective bargaining is restricted under law, the Supplier facilitates, and does not hinder, the development of parallel means for independent and free association and bargaining.

Environmental Law

Suppliers should ensure that every manufacturing facility complies with the environmental laws applicable to the faci1ity, including all laws related to waste disposal, air emissions, discharges, toxic substances, and hazardous waste disposal. Suppliers must validate that all input materials and components were obtained from permissible harvests consistent with all applicable international treaties and protocols in addition to the local laws and regulations of the jurisdiction where such materials and components were obtained.

Health and Safety

Suppliers shall provide a safe and healthy working environment, including for any company-provided living quarters.

Worker Protection

Suppliers will provide their employees with a safe and healthy workplace in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. A safe and hygienic working environment shall be provided. Adequate steps shall be taken to prevent accidents and injury to health arising out of, associated with, or occurring in the course of work, by minimizing, so far as is reasonably practicable, the causes of hazards inherent in the working environment.

Worker Training

Workers shall receive regular and recorded health and safety training, and such training shall be repeated for new or reassigned workers.

Sanitation and Hygiene

Access to clean toilet facilities and to potable water, and, if appropriate, sanitary facilities for food storage shall be provided. Accommodations, where provided, shall be clean, safe, and meet the basic needs of the workers.

Commitment and Accountability

Suppliers shall demonstrate commitment to the concepts described in this document by allocating appropriate resources. Suppliers must make this Code of Conduct and other relevant information available to employees in the native language(s) of the employees and supervisors.

Sustainability

Markon strives to conduct business in a sustainable and responsible manner. We believe our social, environmental, and economic success will continue if we do the right and responsible thing with respect to people, planet, and profit. We seek to do business with supply partners who share our commitment to sustainable business practices, including food safety, environmental stewardship, animal well-being, the health and safety of employees, ethical business practices, returning a profit to shareholders, and supporting those in need.

Legal and Customer Requirements

Suppliers shall identify and comply with applicable laws, regulations, standards, and relevant customer requirements. Suppliers must maintain documentation necessary to demonstrate compliance with this Code of Conduct and must provide Markon with access to that documentation upon its request.

Noncompliance Procedures

The provisions of this Code constitute minimum and not maximum standards, and this Code should not be used to prevent companies from exceeding these standards. Companies applying this code are expected to comply with national and other applicable law and, where the provisions of law and this Code of Conduct address the same subject, to apply that provision which affords the greater protection.

Monitoring and Enforcement

Markon may choose to employ independent, third-party monitoring of its suppliers. As a condition of doing business with Markon, a supplier must allow Markon and/or its representatives or agents unrestricted access to each of its facilities, and to all relevant records at all times, without advance notice, for the purpose of monitoring compliance with this Code. Markon and/or its representatives or agents will comply with supplier’s reasonable safety rules applicable to presence at supplier’s facilities.

If a supplier violates this Code, either generally or with respect to a particular supplier facility, Markon may either terminate its business relationship, generally or with the affected facility, or may require the affected facility to implement a corrective action plan. Markon will continue to develop its monitoring systems to assess and ensure compliance with this Code.

This Addendum B amends and is added to that certain Agreement for Purchase of MARKON Branded and Brand Approved Product between the parties.

In witness whereof, this Addendum has been signed by the parties, effective June 27, 2016.
