Gentlemen:
This letter will confirm certain transactions proposed to be entered into among Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) SCA (DBR), Constellation Brands, Inc., acting through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Franciscan Vineyards, Inc. (Constellation), and Huneeus Vintners LLC (Huneeus).
1. Constellation, Huneeus and DBR (collectively, the Principals) intend to enter into certain transactions among themselves and, in connection therewith and prior thereto, to propose to a special committee of the Board of Directors of Chalone (the Special Committee) that Chalone enter into certain transactions, based on and consistent with the terms set forth herein and other terms to be agreed upon. The Principals have agreed to establish a joint venture company (the Joint Venture or JV) to which Constellation will contribute $54 million in cash and certain assets and Huneeus will contribute certain assets and liabilities, and to which DBR will, upon the completion of the merger of Holdco into Chalone described below, cause Chalone to contribute substantially all of its assets and liabilities.
The Principals propose to effect the proposed transactions as follows: (i) DBR will form a corporation (Holdco) and contribute $10 million in cash to Holdco and contribute its Chalone shares (including any shares obtained upon conversion of the Chalone convertible debt held by DBR) (the Shares) to Holdco in exchange for Holdco shares, (ii) the JV will loan to Holdco an amount equal to the difference between the aggregate cash amount to be paid in exchange for the outstanding publicly held shares of Chalone (other than the shares held by DBR, Holdco and their affiliates) in the merger described in (iv) below and the $10 million in cash to be contributed by DBR to Holdco; (iii) the source of funds for the loan by the JV will be $54 million in cash contributed by Constellation; (iv) DBR will propose to the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Chalone that Holdco enter into a merger agreement with
Chalone providing for the merger of Holdco with and into Chalone (the Merger), in which merger all of the outstanding publicly held shares of Chalone (other than the shares held by DBR, Holdco and their affiliates, which shares shall be cancelled) shall be converted into cash and the stockholders (other than Holdco) will receive the wine purchase rights described on Annex G (such transactions, including the Merger, collectively, the Transactions). The Principals will jointly and severally guarantee the obligations of Holdco under the merger agreement between Holdco and Chalone (the Merger Agreement). The closing of the Transactions will occur simultaneously. The material terms of the Merger Agreement setting forth the terms and conditions of the Merger, including the cash price per share to be paid to holders of Chalone shares (other than DBR, Holdco or its affiliates) shall require the approval of each of the Principals.
2. Each of the Principals hereby commits to cause the following transactions: (i) Constellation will establish the JV as a Delaware limited liability company and Constellation and Huneeus shall enter into governance and other agreements relating to the JV on the terms set forth in Annex A hereto, (ii) Constellation and Huneeus will contribute cash, assets and liabilities to the JV (including debt amounting to no more than $18.5 million to be contributed by Huneeus), and DBR will, immediately upon the consummation of the Merger, cause Chalone to contribute substantially all of its assets and liabilities to the JV, in each case on the terms and conditions set out in Annex B in exchange for ownership interests in the JV, (iii) the Principals will appoint Agustin Francisco Huneeus as the CEO of the JV and establish a management incentive plan on the terms set forth in Annex C hereto, (iv) the Principals will cause the JV to enter into certain other business arrangements with Constellation on the terms set forth in Annex D hereto, and (v) DBR shall enter into an arrangement with the JV as set forth in Annex E hereto. The Principals have valued the assets to be contributed by each of them, including cash contributions, as $[81.2] million for Constellation, $[68] million for Huneeus and $[61.372] million for DBR, resulting in equity percentages (the Equity Percentages) of [38.6]% for Constellation, [32.3]% for Huneeus and [29.1]% for DBR.
3. The obligations of the Principals to effect or cause to be effected the transactions described in (i) through (v) of paragraph 2 above are subject only to the prior satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) the successful consummation of the Merger, and (ii) all requisite consents and antitrust law approvals being obtained. The obligations of the Principals to consummate the transactions described in paragraph 2 above are not subject to any other conditions.
4. None of the Principals shall take any action or enter into any agreement inconsistent with the terms of this Commitment Letter during the Commitment Period (being a period of 4 months from the date of this letter). During the Commitment Period, each of the Principals shall act exclusively with
- 2 -
the others with respect to the Merger and the other Transactions and during the Commitment Period shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Merger and the other Transactions to be consummated as herein contemplated.
In furtherance of such agreement, DBR hereby commits that during the Commitment Period it shall not (i) at any shareholders meeting of Chalone, vote for any transactions proposed by a third party that would result in such third party owning more than 50% of the voting securities of Chalone or its successor or a transaction involving a sale of substantially all the assets of Chalone (each a Competing Transaction), (ii) solicit any third party to propose a Competing Transaction or discuss any such proposal with any third party, or (iii) sell its Shares to any third party other than an affiliate (which shall remain subject to the agreements herein). In the event that DBR shall breach the commitment described in the previous sentence, then DBR shall immediately reimburse Huneeus its documented reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions.
DBR agrees to enter into a Voting Agreement upon the execution of the Merger Agreement whereby DBR agrees for a period commencing upon the date of the Merger Agreement and ending on the termination of the Merger Agreement by its terms, (i) not to sell or otherwise transfer its Shares; (ii) not to solicit proposals for Competing Transactions or enter into discussions with any third party with respect to a Competing Transaction, and (iii) to vote its Shares at a shareholders meeting of Chalone in favor of the transaction proposed by the Merger Agreement and against any Competing Transaction.
In the event that at any time within a period of six months following the date of the Merger Agreement Chalone enters into a definitive agreement for a Competing Transaction at a price per share higher than $7.80 (the Reference Share Price) then (whether or not the Competing Transaction is consummated within such six month period) DBR shall, within seven days of receipt of any amounts paid to it pursuant to the Competing Transaction, pay each of Constellation and Huneeus an amount equal to one-third of the difference between the aggregate consideration received by DBR pursuant to such Competing Transaction and an amount equal to the Reference Share Price multiplied by the number of Shares. In addition, DBR agrees that in any circumstance in which Chalone is obligated to pay a break-up fee upon termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement as a result of Chalone entering into a Competing Transaction, such fee shall be paid to and shared by Constellation and Huneeus as to 50% each.
The commitments and understandings of DBR in this paragraph shall not restrict any actions taken by any director of Chalone who is an employee of or affiliated with DBR in furtherance of his fiduciary obligations.
- 3 -
5. Any proposed change to the material terms of the proposals or transactions set forth in this Commitment Letter and the definitive agreements contemplated hereunder (including the terms set forth in the Annexes hereto) will be subject to the unanimous approval of the Principals.
6. Each Principal (each, an Indemnifying Principal) shall severally, but not jointly indemnify and hold harmless each other Principal (each, an Indemnified Principal) against (x) JV Losses (as defined below) incurred by the Indemnified Principal (whether or not such JV Losses are occasioned by the acts or failures to act of the Indemnified Principal), in an amount that is proportionate to the Indemnifying Principals prospective Equity Percentage in the JV, and (y) Other Losses (as defined below) arising out of the conduct, omission or statement of the Indemnifying Principal.
(a) Promptly after the commencement of any action or proceeding against an Indemnified Principal which could give rise to a claim for indemnification under this Section 6, the Indemnified Principal shall give notice to each Indemnifying Principal if it wishes to assert a claim for indemnification under this Section 6, provided, however, that the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Principals (i) will not relieve the Indemnifying Principals from their indemnification obligations in this Section 6 unless and then only to the extent the Indemnifying Principals did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Principals of substantial rights and defenses, and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the Indemnifying Principals from any obligations to any Indemnified Principal other than the indemnification provisions in this Section 6.
(b) Following delivery of such notice, but subject to the provisions of clause (c) below, each Indemnifying Principal shall be entitled to participate in such action or proceeding and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Principal (but prior to assuming such defense, the Indemnifying Principal shall have acknowledged in writing its indemnification obligation hereunder if such claim is determined adversely to the Indemnified Principal). After notice from the Indemnifying Principal to the Indemnified Principal of its election to assume the defense of a claim, the Indemnifying Principal shall not be liable to such Indemnified Principal under this Section 6 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Principal in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation, or as provided in clause (d) below. If an Indemnifying Principal assumes the defense of such an action, (i) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the Indemnifying Principal without the Indemnified Principals consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law or any violation of the rights of any person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Principal and (B) the sole
- 4 -
relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Principal, and (ii) the Indemnifying Principal shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Principal without its consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). If notice is given to an Indemnifying Principal of the commencement of any action and it does not, within 30 days after the Indemnified Principals notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Principal of its election to assume the defense thereof (and in connection therewith, acknowledges in writing its indemnification obligation hereunder), the Indemnifying Principal shall be bound by any determination made in such action or any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Principal determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that an action may materially and adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages, such Indemnified Principal may, by notice to the Indemnifying Principal, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such action, but the Indemnifying Principal shall have no liability with respect to a judgment entered in any action so defended, or a compromise or settlement thereof entered into, without its consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). Should there be more than one Indemnifying Principal, each Indemnifying Principal shall have the option to assume the defense of the action or proceeding. If more than one Indemnifying Principal chooses to assume the defense, such Indemnifying Principals shall act jointly in the defense, it being understood that no failure of agreement or cooperation among such Indemnifying Principals shall prejudice the rights of the Indemnified Principal. Any Indemnifying Principal which does not choose to assume the defense shall (to the extent it is liable for Losses as an Indemnifying Principal) be bound by the actions of the Indemnifying Principal or Principals which do assume the defense.
(c) In the case of JV Losses, the Principals shall select a single counsel to represent them at their joint expense in the action or proceeding. The Principals may retain separate counsel to protect their individual interests, but the fees and expenses of any such counsel shall be for the sole account of the Principal retaining such counsel.
(d) Notwithstanding the Indemnifying Principals election to assume the defense of an action or proceeding, the Indemnified Principal or Principals in connection with an Other Loss (but not a JV Loss) shall have the right to employ one separate counsel (including local counsel), and the Indemnifying Principal shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Principal to represent the Indemnified Principal or Principals would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Indemnified Principal or Principals and the Indemnifying Principal and either or both of the Indemnified Principals shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are
- 5 -
different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Principal; (iii) the Indemnifying Principal shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Principal or Principals to represent the Indemnified Principal or Principals within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the Indemnifying Principal shall authorize either or both of the Indemnified Principals to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Principal.
(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnified Principal, then each Indemnifying Principal shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Principal as a result of the JV Loss or Other Loss, as the case may be, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) in the case of JV Losses, the relative benefits received by the Indemnified Principal on the one hand and the Indemnifying Principals on the other hand, in each case from the consummation of the Transactions as contemplated by and pursuant to the terms of this letter, which relative benefits the parties agree are proportionate to their prospective Equity Percentages in the JV, and (ii) in the case of Other Losses, the extent to which such Losses result from actions or failures to act of the Indemnifying Principal. Notwithstanding the rights of any Principal to contribution in this Section 6(e), no Principal shall be required to contribute an amount that is in excess of the amount which would have been required to be paid by such Principal had such amount been calculated in accordance with the indemnification provisions of this Section 6.
(f) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 6,
(i) The term Proceeding shall mean any action, suit, litigation, arbitration, proceeding (including any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or appellate proceeding and any informal proceeding), prosecution, contest, hearing, inquiry, inquest, audit, examination or investigation commenced, brought, conducted or heard by or before, or otherwise involving, any governmental entity.
(ii) The term Losses shall mean any and all actual losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, settlements and expenses (including interest and penalties with respect thereto and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses and reasonable accountants fees and expenses incurred in the investigation or defense of any Proceeding) incurred by any Principal to which such Principal may become subject as a result of a claim of or Proceeding initiated by a third party, irrespective of whether such Losses have been incurred or suffered as a result of Proceedings initiated by a governmental entity or otherwise.
(iii) The term JV Losses shall mean any Losses, but only insofar as such Losses arise out of or are based upon this Commitment Letter or the making of a proposal with respect to the Merger by the Principals to the Board of
- 6 -
Directors of Chalone, or the consummation of the Transactions (including the Merger) pursuant to this Commitment Letter; provided, however, that JV Losses shall not include any Losses arising out of or based upon conduct, omissions or statements described in any of clauses (A) through (E) of the definition of Other Losses.
(iv) The term Other Losses shall mean any Losses incurred by a Principal which at any time arise out of or are based upon:
(A) actions or discussions by another Principal inconsistent with the course of conduct or direction approved or consented to by the Principals;
(B) the failure of another Principal to file, or timely file, any forms, reports, statements or other documents required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as applicable, an SEC Report);
(C) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained in the SEC Report of another Principal, which such statement or omission originated from such Principal;
(D) any act or omission by such Principal which would constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct by another Principal; or
(E) the violation of any obligation of such Principal under any agreement relating to the Transactions.
7. All legal expenses of the JV and each of the Principals incurred in connection with the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated in this Commitment Letter (including the transactions described in the Annexes hereto) (the Transaction Costs) will (i) be borne individually by each of the Principals (with respect to the legal fees incurred by such Principal) except as provided as follows; (ii) (a) Transaction Costs solely in organizing the JV will be borne by Constellation; (b) Transaction Costs for services described on Annex F in connection with work required to consummate such transactions will be borne by the JV; and (c) Transaction Costs for services performed for each of Principals in the event that the transactions described herein (including the Annexes hereto) are not consummated will be borne by each of the Principals. The expenses of other outside advisors retained by or for the account of the JV will be borne by the JV.
8. The Principals commitments in this Commitment Letter, other than those in paragraphs 6 and 7, shall expire on September 15, 2004 if no Merger Agreement shall have been entered into prior to that date.
- 7 -
9. Except for the provisions of paragraphs 4, 6 and 7, which shall be binding on the parties from the date hereof, (i) the transactions contemplated hereby are subject to the performance of due diligence and the preparation, execution and delivery of definitive agreements, in each case satisfactory to each of the Principals, and (ii) any liability among the Principals shall attach only upon execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement (in a form acceptable to the Principals) with Chalone.
10. This letter and the interpretation thereof will be governed by New York law applicable to agreements made and to be performed therein.
- 8 -
Please confirm that the foregoing conforms to your understanding by executing and returning a copy of this letter to the undersigned, whereupon this letter shall, to the extent set forth in paragraph 10, constitute a binding agreement among ourselves.
Very truly yours, | ||

- 6 -
Right of First Offer
If after the sixth anniversary of the formation of the Joint Venture a Member desires to sell all or any portion of its Membership Interest, then that Member shall first offer such Membership Interest to the other Members by giving written notice of such offer to the Board of Directors and the other Members, stating the portion of its Membership Interest it proposes to sell, the offer price, the consideration it will accept and, in reasonable detail, all other material matters relating to the offer. If a second Member does not, within 15 days of receipt of the Notice, give notice that it will join the offer to sell, then the following procedures will apply and, until they are completed, neither other Member may initiate a sale of its Membership Interest.
The other Members shall have the option to accept such offer, exercisable by giving written notice of acceptance to the initiating Member, with a copy to each of the other Members, within 120 days after its receipt of the offer. The closing of the transfer of the Membership Interest shall take place on a date selected by the responding Member or Members not less than 30 days or more than 60 days after the giving of the acceptance notice. If the other Members do not elect to purchase all of the offered Membership Interest, then the initiating Member shall have 180 days within which to sell such Membership Interest to a third party on terms and conditions no more favorable to the third party than as set forth in the original offer to the other Members.
If, within 15 days of receipt of the notice from the initiating Member, a second Member gives notice that it will join the initiating Members offer to sell, then the following procedures will apply.
The remaining Member shall have the option to accept the offer of the two other Members, on the same basis and within the same time periods as set forth above. If the remaining Member does not elect to purchase all of the Offered Membership Interests, then the offering Members shall have 180 days within which to sell such Membership Interests to a third party or to cause the Joint Venture or its |
- 7 -
assets to be sold, in which case (i) the offering Members shall have the right (in the case of a sale of Membership Interests) to cause the remaining Member to sell its Membership Interest on the same terms and conditions, (ii) the remaining Member shall be required to grant any necessary approvals to such sale, and (iii) should the other Members not require the remaining Member to join in the sale, the remaining Member shall have the right to sell its Membership Interest in the sale on the same terms and conditions as the other Members.
Time shall be of the essence with respect to exercise of rights to buy or sell under the provisions of this section. | ||
Change of Control | If a change of control [to be defined] of any Member, or of a person or entity controlling such Member, occurs, the other Members will have the right to determine whether to sell their Membership Interests to or purchase the Membership Interest held by the Member as to which the change of control has occurred at the fair market value thereof. If the other Members choose to purchase the Membership Interest held by the Member as to which the change of control has occurred, each such Member will have the right to purchase such Membership Interest pro rata according to their ownership interests in the Joint Venture. The decision to purchase or sell must be made jointly by the other Members. In the absence of agreement, there will be no purchase or sale, provided that the other Members may agree that one of them will purchase the Membership Interests of the other two Members, at the fair market value thereof, which agreement will also be binding upon the Member as to which the change of control has occurred.
Appropriate adjustments in the governance provisions will be agreed to reflect the changed economic interest of the acquiring Member(s).
Unless it is determined by agreement among the Members, fair market value will be determined by the following process.
The Members as to which the change of control has occurred, on the one hand, and the other Members (by agreement between them), |
- 8 -
on the other hand, will prepare a proposal as to the fair market value of the Joint Venture, including such supporting information as they may select, and each will submit its proposal to an arbitrator, who shall be experienced in the valuation of businesses similar to the Joint Ventures business. The arbitrator, in its discretion, may conduct a proceeding to receive additional information about the basis of and support for the two proposals. The arbitrator will then determine the fair market value of the Joint Venture by choosing one or the other of the two proposals; provided that the arbitrator shall not have the discretion or authority to choose any other value. The fair market value of the Membership Interest or Interests to be purchased and sold hereunder will then be deemed to be the amount that would be distributed to the holder of such Membership Interest(s) if the Joint Venture were sold at the amount determined by the arbitrator and then liquidated. | ||
Material Breach | No special provisions. Members retain their contractual remedies. | |
Business Plan Deadlock | If the Board fails to approve the Business Plan on two successive years, the second of which is no earlier than the fourth year of the Joint Venture, then:
FIRST: The Members shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the issue or to agree on an exit. If necessary, the dispute will be referred to the chief executive officers of each of the Members.
SECOND: If no agreement is reached, then the following blind auction process shall be used:
(1) Each Member may submit a sealed offer to an independent person. An offer is a proposed all cash price for the entire Joint Venture.
(2) Subject to (3) below, the Member submitting the highest offer must buy out the other Members at the lower submitted offers. If more than one Member submits the same highest offer, they will resubmit bids, which may be higher, lower or the same as before. If, after resubmission, there remains more than one offer at the same highest amount, the buyer will be selected by random process. |
- 9 -
(A) Each selling Member shall receive what it would receive if the Joint Venture were sold for that Members submitted offer and then liquidated.
(B) In determining liquidation amounts, all outstanding incentive equity will be treated as fully vested immediately before the liquidation.
(C) A Member who does not submit an offer will become a seller who is deemed, for these purposes, to have submitted an offer at the same amount as the buyer.
(3) To give the buying Member adequate time to arrange purchase financing, the closing will be a date selected by the buyer no later than 180 days after being selected as buyer.
(A) The purchase will be on an all-cash basis;
(B) If the buyer fails to timely close, the buyer will promptly reimburse the other Members for all reasonable costs they incurred in connection with the buy-sell process. If there is at least one other Member who submitted an offer, then the Member who submitted the next highest offer becomes the buyer and the initial buyer becomes a seller and is deemed to have submitted an offer at the same amount as the new buyer (and, if a Member had not submitted an offer, its deemed offer price is also adjusted to the price of the new buyer). (The process will be the same if the new buyer fails to close: that is, if all three Members submitted offers, the Member who submitted the lowest offer will become the buyer, and the other two Members will become sellers and will be deemed to have submitted offers at the same amount as the new buyer.)
(4) If the process in paragraphs (1)-(3) above does not result in a purchase-sale transaction (including if no offers are submitted), the Members will appoint an investment banker to solicit bids from |
- 10 -
third parties to buy the entire Joint Venture, and the Joint Venture will be sold to the highest and best third-party bidder. | ||
Termination, Dissolution, Liquidation by Vote of the Board | The property and proceeds from liquidation of Joint Venture assets shall be applied as follows:
(a) first, to the payment of creditors of the Joint Venture, including Members who are creditors, to the extent permitted by law;
(b) and then, to pay the expenses of winding up the Joint Venture; and
(c) and finally, to each Member in accordance with its Percentage Interest. |

The indemnity for material misrepresentations shall survive for 12 months from the Closing and be subject to an individual deductible of $1,000,000 in connection with Hs indemnity and $500,000 in connection with Cs indemnity.
Neither C nor H shall be required to indemnify the JV in an amount greater than $10,000,000. | |
Prepaid Expenses | So as to provide the benefits and burdens of the 2004 harvests from the contributed H and C vineyards, all vineyard expenses shall be apportioned between the respective contributing parties and the JV, based on the number of days included in the period up to and including the last day of the month succeeding the 2004 harvest on the one hand, and the number of days following such date during such growing period on the other hand. Similarly expenses related to the production of the 2004 vintage wines being contributed by H will be apportioned as of the same date. | |
Taxes | All real property taxes, personal property taxes and similar ad valorem obligations levied with respect to the Contributed Assets of C and H for a taxable period which includes (but does not end on) the date of the Contribution Agreement shall be apportioned, based on the number of days included in the period up to and including the last day of the month succeeding the 2004 harvest on the one hand, and the number of days |
- 7 -
following such date during such taxable period on the other hand, between the respective party contributing such assets and the JV.
All excise, sales, use, value added, registration, stamp, recording, documentary, conveyancing, franchise, property, transfer, gains and similar taxes, levies, charges and fees incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement shall be borne by the JV. | ||
Debt | The JV shall use its best efforts to negotiate, and shall bear all costs and expenses in connection with any negotiations, with CHs creditors to assign all of CHs debt instruments (including all private placement notes and bank credit agreements) to the JV. In the event that such debt instruments cannot be assigned, the JV shall, at its own cost and expense and for its own account, cause all necessary actions to be taken to discharge all of CHs obligations, including principal, interest, penalties and all costs and expenses in connection therewith, under such debt instruments.
All costs and expenses in connection with the negotiation or refinancing of Hs debt in connection with this Contribution Agreement shall be borne pro rata by the JV and H according to the following formula:
the JV will pay the percentage of such costs that corresponds to the percentage of the value of all debt that is to be contributed by H to the JV; and
H will pay the percentage of such costs that corresponds to the percentage of the value of all debt that is retained by H,
except that all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the division of the debt collateral between the Contributed Assets and the assets to be retained by H shall be borne by H. | |
Other Tax Matters | For tax purposes, (i) the contributions of assets and liabilities by C and H are intended to be treated as contributions described in Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and (ii) the contribution of assets and liabilities by Holdco (through CH) are intended to be treated as (x) in part a contribution by CH of its assets to JV under Section 721 |
- 8 -
of the Code, and (y) in part a sale by CH of its assets to JV under Section 707 of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there is no intention for the JV to indemnify any party other than to indemnify CH, for tax liabilities arising out of such partys contribution.
The parties will negotiate in good faith to agree the fair market values of the specific categories of assets contributed by C, H and Holdco as of the closing of the Contribution Agreement. | ||

ANNEX D
CERTAIN BUSINESS ARRANGEMENTS
Subject to the consummation of the Merger, Newco and Constellation (and its affiliates) will enter into the following agreements upon the Closing:
1. Stonewall Canyon and Pinnacles Grape Contract. Newco and Franciscan Vineyards, Inc. will enter into an agreement, for the 2004-2008 harvests, for Newco to purchase Pinot Noir grapes produced at Franciscans Stonewall Canyon vineyard and Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes produced at its Pinnacles vineyard, both in Monterey County. Newco will purchase 80 tons of the 2004 Stonewall Canyon Pinot Noir crop at a price of $1,800 per ton, 250 tons of the 2004 Pinnacles Pinot Noir crop at a price of $1,400 per ton, and 200 tons of the 2004 Pinnacles Chardonnay crop at a price of $1,000 per ton. Tonnage of subsequent crops will be determined by agreement of the parties prior to March 1 of each harvest year. The actual tonnage of such grapes that will be available to Newco in any harvest year will not be guaranteed and may be more or less than the designated amount, since it will be based on the actual production from specified blocks within the vineyards designated annually by a selection process set forth in the contract; provided that, in the event of a shortage, Franciscan will sell additional grapes to Newco from the vineyards on the same terms, if the grapes can be made available. In the event of excess grapes being produced on the designated block, Newco will purchase those grapes on the same terms. The prices per ton for crops after 2004 will be based on the 2004 prices, adjusted annually (but not below the 2004 price) by the lesser of (i) the percentage change in the average price of the relevant variety in the immediately proceeding two (2) harvest years in Monterey County, or (ii) changes in the Consumer Price Index, with a maximum adjustment of 5% per year. With respect to the Stonewall Canyon vineyard, Newco will have the option to convert the arrangement to an acreage contract pursuant to which it would purchase all of the grapes grown on the designated acres at a rate of $6,300 per acre plus Franciscans actual incremental costs incurred for any special viticultural services necessary or required by Newco.
2. Oakville Estates Grape Contract. Although Constellation (through Franciscan) is contributing the Oakville Estate vineyards to Newco, Franciscan is retaining title to the 2004 crop produced at the vineyards. Newco and Franciscan will enter into an agreement, pursuant to which Newco will purchase grapes from the vineyards 2004 harvest (to be made into wine at the Quintessa Winery), and Franciscan will purchase grapes from the 2005-2009 harvests.
For the 2004 harvest, Newco will purchase from Franciscan 42 tons of Cabernet Sauvignon, 102 tons of Merlot and such additional grapes as Newco may require, up to a combined total of 21 tons of such varieties as are necessary to enable Newco to create a meritage wine. Newco will pay $4,011 per ton for the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and $2,715 per ton for the Merlot grapes. If Newco is established, it will retain Huneeus to process the grapes. If Newco is not established and Franciscan therefore retains the wine produced from the grapes, Franciscan will pay Huneeus for the processing at the same rate it paid for such services for the 2003 crop. The actual tonnage of such grapes that will be available to Newco is not guaranteed and may be more or less than the designated amount, since it will be based on the actual production from specified blocks within the vineyard designated by a selection process set forth in the contract; provided that, in the event of a shortage, Franciscan will sell additional grapes to
Newco from the vineyard on the same terms, if the grapes are available. In the event of excess grapes being produced on the designated block, Newco will purchase those grapes on the same terms.
For the 2005-2009 harvests, Franciscan will purchase the following percentages of the crop of Bordeaux varietals: 2005 harvest: 66% (estimated to be 614 tons); 2006 harvest: 58% (estimated to be 587 tons); 2007 harvest: 43% (estimated to be 553 tons); 2008 harvest: 24% (estimated to be 273 tons); and 2009 harvest: 15% (estimated to be 176 tons). The actual tonnage of such grapes to be sold to Franciscan will be based on the actual production from specified blocks within the vineyard designated annually by a selection process set forth in the contract. The prices per ton for such grapes will be the lesser of (i) the percentage change in the average price of the relevant variety in the immediately proceeding two (2) harvest years in Napa County, or (ii) changes in the Consumer Price Index, with a maximum adjustment of 5% per year.
3. Quintessa Grape Contract. An existing grape contract between Huneeus and Franciscan for Franciscans purchase of grapes from the 2004-2006 harvests from the Quintessa vineyards will be amended and contributed by Huneeus to Newco. Whether or not Newco is formed, the contract will be modified to provide for a reduction in the grape purchase prices in exchange for the following payments to Huneeus: $479,850 on November 1 of each of 2004, 2005 and 2006. As amended and contributed to Newco, the contract will provide for Franciscan to purchase all of the grapes produced from the vineyards 2004-2006 harvests other than the following amounts, which will be retained by Newco: 2004 harvest: 242 tons; 2005 harvest: 262 tons; and 2006 harvest: 281 tons. For the 2004 harvest, Franciscan will pay $4,011 per ton for the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and $2,715 per ton for the Merlot grapes. The prices per ton for crops after 2004 will be based on the 2004 prices, adjusted annually (but not below the 2004 price) by the lesser of (i) the percentage change in the average price of the relevant variety in the immediately proceeding two (2) harvest years in Napa County, or (ii) changes in the Consumer Price Index, with a maximum adjustment of 5% per year. In addition, Franciscan and Newco will identify two blocks at the Quintessa vineyards to be farmed more aggressively for higher yields for the 2005 and 2006 harvests. If Franciscan is satisfied with the quality of the grapes produced from these blocks, it will have the right, during the 2007-2011 harvests, to buy the grapes from these blocks that are not used by Newco, at market prices.
4. Distribution Agreement. Pursuant to an existing agreement with Huneeus, Franciscan will continue to be the exclusive distributor for Huneeus wines through February 28, 2005, thereby entitling it to distribute the 2001 vintage produced at Quintessa. When Newco takes on distribution of the Quintessa brand effective March 1, 2005, it will assume the distribution rights and obligations with respect to any remaining inventory of the 2001 vintage retained by Huneeus, which is expected to be very little as of March 1, 2005.
5. New Zealand and Australian Wines. Newco will enter into an agreement with Constellation to develop a brand for, and to distribute in the United States, a variety of New Zealand and Australian wines produced by Constellation. Under the agreement, which will begin with the 2004 vintage (for New Zealand wines) and the 2005 vintage (for Australian wines), Newco anticipates increasing its sales of such wines from 5,000 cases of one New Zealand varietal of the 2004 vintage to approximately 150,000 cases of the 2013 vintage
- 2 -
(including two varietals from New Zealand and four varietals for Australia). Pricing under the distribution agreement will be on competitive market terms.
6. Understandings Regarding Production. Newco anticipates using production services, including crushing services, barrel fermentation and possibly storage, at the Franciscan and Estancia wineries, beginning with the 2004 crop. The pricing for such services will be on a formula basis that is competitive with other facilities providing comparable services.
7. General Services. Newco anticipates contracting for a variety of services that Franciscan may be able to provide or facilitate at prices or on terms that will be advantageous to Newco, including, for example, access to market data services, management of information technology resources, joint warehousing of case goods, accounts receivable management and employee benefit programs, and joint purchasing of glass, corks and other components.
