(a) Following delivery of the notice specified in Section 6.2, but subject to the provisions of Section 6.3(b), each Indemnifying Party 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 Party (but prior to assuming such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall have acknowledged in writing its indemnification obligation hereunder if such claim is determined adversely to the Indemnified Party). After notice from the

Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of a claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Article VI for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation, or as provided in Section 6.3(c) below. If an Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such an action, (1) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s 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 Party and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party, and (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Party without its consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). If notice is given to an Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any action and it does not, within 30 days after the Indemnified Party’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense thereof (and in connection therewith, acknowledge in writing its indemnification obligation hereunder), the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any determination made in such action or any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party 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 Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such action, but the Indemnifying Party 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 Party, each Indemnifying Party shall have the option to assume the defense of the action or proceeding. If more than one Indemnifying Party chooses to assume the defense, such Indemnifying Parties shall act jointly in the defense, it being understood that no failure of agreement or cooperation among such Indemnifying Parties shall prejudice the rights of the Indemnified Party. Any Indemnifying Party which does not choose to assume the defense shall (to the extent it is liable for Losses as an Indemnifying Party) be bound by the actions of the Indemnifying Party or Parties which do assume the defense.

(b) In the case of Venture Losses, the Parties shall select a single counsel to represent them at their joint expense in the action or proceeding. The Parties 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 Party retaining such counsel.

(c) Notwithstanding the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of an action or proceeding, the Indemnified Party or Parties in connection with an Other Loss (but not a Venture Loss) shall have the right to employ one separate counsel (including local counsel), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party or Parties 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 Party or Parties and the Indemnifying Party and either or both of the Indemnified Parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall not

have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party or Parties to represent the Indemnified Party or Parties within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the Indemnifying Party shall authorize either or both of the Indemnified Parties to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party.

6.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article VI is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnified Party, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of the Venture Loss or Other Loss, as the case may be, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (a) in the case of Venture Losses, the relative benefits received by the Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Indemnifying Parties on the other hand, in each case from the consummation of the Transactions as contemplated by and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, which relative benefits the parties agree are proportionate to their prospective Membership Percentage Interests in the Venture, and (b) in the case of Other Losses, the extent to which such Losses result from actions or failures to act of the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the rights of any Party to contribution in this Section 6.4, no Party shall be required to contribute an amount that is in excess of the amount which would have been required to be paid by such Party had such amount been calculated in accordance with the indemnification provisions of this Article VI.

6.5 Remedy Not Exclusive. The rights and remedies of the Parties under this Article VI with regard to Venture Losses and Other Losses shall be in addition to and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies the Parties may have at law, equity or otherwise for any other breach or nonperformance by another Party of its obligations under this Agreement, other than for any breach by Huneeus or its Affiliates of their obligations under Section 5.1, as to which the sole remedy shall be a claim for indemnification by the Venture under Article VI of the Huneeus Contribution Agreement, or any breach by Constellation or its Affiliates of their obligations under Section 5.2, as to which the sole remedy shall be a claim for indemnification by the Venture under Article VI of the Franciscan Contribution Agreement.

3.3. Business Opportunities; Other Business Ventures; Nonsolicitation of Employees.

(a) The Members recognize that each of them is currently engaged in the production, sale and distribution of wines, that, except as to any portion of their assets or businesses which may be contributed to the Company, they will continue in such businesses following establishment of the Company and that certain of their continuing businesses will be in competition with the business of the Company. Accordingly, subject only to the provisions of any employment agreement, consulting agreement or other written agreement with the Company or as set forth in Sections 3.3(b) and 3.3(c), any Member, any Affiliate, agent or representative of a Member, and any officer, director, employee or shareholder of, or other person holding a legal or beneficial interest in any entity which is, a Member or Affiliate of a Member, may engage in, or possess an interest in, other business ventures of every nature and description, independently or with others, whether or not such other enterprises shall be in competition with or operating the same or similar businesses as the Company, and no Member shall have any obligation or duty to bring business opportunities to the attention of the Company or any other Member.

(b) If any Member or Affiliate of Member shall at any time be presented with a bona fide opportunity to acquire an interest in or enter into a distribution, joint venture or comparable business arrangement with respect to any of the brands to be unanimously

designated by the Board at its initial meeting as a “Reserved Business Opportunity,” whether or not that Member or its Affiliate wishes to pursue that opportunity for its own account, the Member (the “Notifying Member”) shall give written notice to the Board describing the opportunity in reasonable detail. No later than 15 Business Days after receipt of the notice the Board shall convene a meeting to consider whether the Company should seek to pursue such Reserved Business Opportunity for its own account. The Directors designated by the Notifying Member shall be entitled to attend and participate in such meeting, but their presence shall not be required to constitute a quorum. The determination of the Board shall be made by Majority Approval (notwithstanding any contrary provision in Article IV), no later than 30 Business Days after receipt of notification from the Notifying Member. If the Board determines to pursue the Reserved Business Opportunity, the Members and their Affiliates shall refrain from pursuing the Reserved Business Opportunity and shall assist the Company in pursuing it. If (i) the Board does not determine to pursue the Reserved Business Opportunity within the time period specified above, (ii) the Company does not succeed in consummating the Reserved Business Opportunity within six months of its determination, or (iii) the Company at any earlier time abandons its efforts to pursue the Reserved Business Opportunity, the Notifying Member or its Affiliate shall be free to pursue the Reserved Business Opportunity for its own account. If any Member brings a Reserved Business Opportunity to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3(b), the other Members and their Affiliates shall maintain such Reserved Business Opportunity in confidence and shall refrain from pursuing such Reserved Business Opportunity for their own accounts for so long as it is being pursued by the Company or by the Notifying Member.

(c) No Member will and no Member will allow any of its Affiliates or any person acting on behalf of or in concert with such Member or any of its Affiliates, for a period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the second anniversary of the Transfer of such Member’s interest pursuant to this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Board, directly or indirectly solicit for employment or otherwise encourage to leave the Company’s employ any manager, director, executive officer or other supervisory-level employee of the Company (a “Supervisory Employee”) who at the time is employed by the Company or hire or solicit for employment any Supervisory Employee who voluntarily terminated his or her employment within six (6) months prior thereto; provided that nothing herein shall prevent general solicitations through advertising or similar means which are not specifically directed at employees of the Company or the hiring of employees or former employees of the Company who respond solely to such general solicitations.

3.4. Business Transactions Involving a Member or Affiliate of a Member. A Member or Affiliate of a Member may lend money to, provide services to and transact other business with the Company and shall have the same rights and obligations with respect to such matters as a Person who is not a Member or an Affiliate of a Member, provided that a written memorandum describing the terms of the loan, service or transaction so authorized has been signed by such Member or Affiliate and by a Director designated by each of the Members not party to the loan, service or other transaction, and such loan, service or transaction, if required to be authorized by the Board in accordance with Section 4.5(b)(vii) or 4.5(c)(xx), has been so authorized.

3.5. Management by Members. Except as authorized by the Board in accordance with this Agreement, no Member (in his, her or its capacity as such) or representative of a Member shall take part in the day–to–day management, or the operation or control, of the business and affairs of the Company. Except and only to the extent expressly delegated by the Board or specified in this Agreement, no Member shall be an agent of the Company or have any right, power or authority to transact any business in the name of the Company or to act for or on behalf of or to bind the Company. Nothing in this Section 3.5, however, is intended to restrict a Director or officer of the Company who is also a Member in the exercise of his or her power or authority as a Director or officer of the Company.

4.1. Board of Directors. The business and affairs of the Company shall be managed by or under the direction of its Board of Directors, in the manner of a board of directors of a public corporation incorporated under Delaware law.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, any action that could be taken by the Members, may be taken by the Board of Directors, as provided below. The holders of each class of Class A, Class B and Class C Membership Interests shall select and nominate at least two Directors of the corresponding class, but may in their sole discretion select and nominate additional Directors of that class. Each Director on the Board shall continue to serve as a Director until such time as his or her death, resignation, incapacity or removal in accordance with Section 4.7.

Except where approval of the Members is expressly required by nonwaivable provisions of applicable law, the Board shall have full, exclusive and complete discretion to direct and control the business and affairs of the Company, to make all decisions affecting the business and affairs of the Company and to authorize management of the Company or such other Persons as it may designate to take all such actions as it deems necessary or appropriate to accomplish the foregoing and the purposes of the Company as set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to the other provisions of this Article IV, the Board shall have the power and authority to cause the Company to:

(k) execute, deliver, file and/or record any and all instruments, documents or agreements of any kind which the Board may deem appropriate or as may be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of the Company; and

(l) take such other actions as the Board of Directors may reasonably believe to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of the Company.

Only the Board, acting collectively, shall have the power to bind the Company, except and to the extent otherwise set forth in Article V or as expressly delegated to any other Person by the Board, but such delegation shall not cause the Board to cease to be responsible for the management of the Company. The expression of any power or authority of the Board in this Agreement shall not in any way limit or exclude any other power or authority which is not specifically or expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(a) Meetings of the Board of Directors shall be held at least quarterly. Meetings may be called by order of the Chief Executive Officer or any Director.

Business Days before the meeting to each Director; provided, however, that notice of any special meeting of the Board may be given by nationally recognized (for notices to Directors in the United States) or internationally recognized (for notices to other Directors) overnight courier service, or by telephoning, telecopying, e-mailing (in each case confirmed on the same day by nationally or internationally, as appropriate, recognized courier service) or delivering personally the same, at least three (3) Business Days before the meeting to each Director. Except as otherwise specified in the notice thereof, or as required by the Act, the Certificate of Formation or this Agreement, any and all business may be transacted at any meeting.

(b) At any meeting of the Board of Directors, the presence in person or by proxy of at least one Class A Director, one Class B Director and one Class C Director shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business or of any specified item of business. In the absence of a quorum those Directors present may adjourn the meeting to a specified date (which shall not be less than 72 hours after the date of the originally-scheduled meeting). If a quorum is lacking at the adjourned meeting, that meeting may again be adjourned to a specified date (which shall not be less than 72 hours after the date of the first adjourned meeting). Notice of an adjourned meeting shall be given in the manner specified in Section 4.3(a), except that (i) such notice need not be delivered more than 72 hours prior to the adjourned meeting, and (ii) notice of the second adjourned meeting shall be accompanied by a meeting agenda describing in general terms the matters to be discussed and approved at the meeting. At a second adjourned meeting, the quorum for the transaction of business, and for any specified items of business on the meeting agenda, shall be reduced to the presence in person or by proxy of at least one Director from two of the three classes. At any adjourned meeting at which the requisite quorum is present any action may be taken which might have been taken at the meeting as originally called, except that at a second adjourned meeting at which a quorum of only two of the three classes is present action may be taken only on those matters included on the meeting agenda accompanying the notice of meeting.

(c) The secretary of each meeting of the Board shall record the deliberations and determinations of the Board in written minutes which will be circulated by the secretary to the Directors following the meeting for their review and approval at or before, if so directed by the Board, the next meeting of the Board.

4.4. Organization. Every meeting of the Board shall be presided over by the Chairman of the Board, or, in the absence of the Chairman of the Board, by such Director as shall be selected by the majority of the Directors present. The Chairman of the Board or the presiding Director, as the case may be, shall select a person (who need not be a Director) to act as the secretary of the meeting. The Chief Executive Officer, if he or she is not a Director, shall be entitled to be present at all Board sessions, except as to matters affecting his or her employment, compensation or performance. The Chairman of the Board shall be selected annually by a majority of the Board, provided that the initial Chairman of the Board shall be Christophe Salin.

Without limitation upon the powers and authority of the Board generally, the following matters shall require Majority Approval of the Board:

The Board, from time to time, may confer like powers upon any other Person or Persons.

(a) No Member or Director or Affiliate, partner, representative or agent of a Member or Director (each, a “Covered Person”) shall be liable to the Company or any other Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Covered Person in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Covered Person by this Agreement, except that a Covered Person shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Covered Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any Person as to matters the Covered Person reasonably believes are within such other Person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses or net cash flow or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions to Members might properly be paid.

(a) To the greatest extent not inconsistent with the laws and public policies of Delaware, the Company shall indemnify any Covered Person made a party to any proceeding because such Person is or was a Member or Director, or an Affiliate, partner, representative or agent of a Member or Director, as a matter of right, against all liability incurred by such Person in connection with any proceeding; provided that the Covered Person has met the standard of conduct for indemnification set forth in subsection (c) of this Section 6.2. To the maximum extent permitted by the laws and public policies of Delaware, the Company shall pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred by a Covered Person in connection with any such proceeding in advance of final disposition thereof if (i) the Covered Person furnishes the Company a written affirmation of the Covered Person’s good faith belief that it has met the standard of conduct for indemnification described in subsection (c) of this Section 6.2 and (ii) the Covered Person furnishes the Company a written undertaking, executed personally or on such Covered Person’s behalf, to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that such Covered Person did not meet such standard of conduct. The undertaking described in subsection (a)(ii) above must be a general obligation of the Covered Person, subject to such reasonable limitations as the Company may permit, but need not be secured and may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make repayment. The Company shall indemnify a Covered Person who is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any such proceeding, as a matter of right, against reasonable expenses incurred by the Covered Person in connection with the proceeding without the requirement of a determination as set forth in subsection (c) of this Section 6.2. Upon demand by a Covered Person for indemnification or advancement of expenses, as the case may be, the Company shall expeditiously determine whether the Covered

Person is entitled thereto in accordance with this Section 6.2. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided for under this Section 6.2 shall only be applicable to a proceeding arising from acts or omissions occurring after the Effective Date.

(b) The Company shall have the power, but not the obligation, to indemnify any Person who is or was an officer, employee or agent of the Company or was serving as such at the request of the Company to the same extent as if such Person was a Covered Person designated in Section 6.1 or otherwise to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law.

(c) Indemnification of a Covered Person is permissible under this Section 6.2 only if (i) such Covered Person reasonably believed that it conducted itself in good faith; (ii) such Covered Person reasonably believed that its conduct was in or at least not opposed to the Company’s best interest and was within the authority delegated to it by this Agreement or by the Directors; (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, such Covered Person had no reasonable cause to believe its conduct was unlawful; and (iv) such Covered Person is not adjudged in any such proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent to have failed to meet the standard of conduct described in this subsection (c).

(d) A Covered Person who is a party to a proceeding may apply for indemnification from the Company to the court, if any, conducting the proceeding or to another court of competent jurisdiction. On receipt of an application, the court, after giving notice the court considers necessary, may order indemnification if it determines:

(i) in a proceeding in which the Covered Person is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, the Covered Person is entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.2, in which case the court shall order the Company to pay the Covered Person its reasonable expenses incurred to obtain such court ordered indemnification; or

Upon formation of the Company, all cash Capital Contributions shall be transferred to a separate Company account or accounts in such banks or other financial institutions as may be selected by the Board. Such account or accounts shall be maintained in the name of or for the benefit of the Company. Thereafter, all revenues, bank loans, proceeds and other receipts shall be deposited and maintained in such account or accounts, which may or may not bear interest, and all expenses, costs and similar items payable by the Company shall be paid from such accounts. The Company's funds, including, but not limited to, the Members' cash Capital Contributions, Company revenue and the proceeds of any borrowing by the Company, may be invested as the Board, in its sole discretion, deems advisable.

Member’s Contribution Agreement. Agustin Francisco Huneeus shall contribute the cash shown on Schedule I in exchange for his Class D-1 Membership Interest.

8.2. Additional Capital Contributions. Except as otherwise provided under applicable state law and subject to (i) the last sentence of Section 13.2(a), (ii) the provisions of Annex B, and (iii) the terms established by the Board with respect to capital contribution requirements (if any) of any future Class D Membership Interests, no Member shall be required to lend any funds to the Company or to make any additional Capital Contributions to the Company in excess of those made pursuant to Section 8.1. No Member shall have any personal liability for the repayment of any Capital Contribution of any other Member. No Member shall be required to make up, or to make any payment to any Person on account of, any deficit in its Capital Account.

(a) Capital Accounts shall be determined and maintained in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). In accordance therewith, a Capital Account shall be established for each Member. The Capital Account shall be credited with (i) the Capital Contributions of such Member (net of liabilities relating to any contributed property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Code Section 752), (ii) the amount of any cash and the Carrying Value of any property subsequently contributed by such Member to the capital of the Company (net of liabilities relating to any contributed property that the Company is considered to assume or take subject to under Code Section 752), (iii) such Member's distributive share of Net Income (or any item of income or gain separately allocated pursuant to this Agreement) and (iv) any adjustment that increases the basis of a Company asset (treated for these purposes as an item of gain) that is taken into account in determining capital accounts under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m). The parties hereto agree that the initial Capital Account balance of each Member shall be equal to the Agreed Valuation of Net Contribution set forth on Schedule I.

(b) Each Member’s Capital Account shall be debited by (i) such Member's distributive share of Net Loss (or any item of loss, deduction, depreciation or amortization separately allocated pursuant to this Agreement), (ii) any adjustment that decreases the basis of a Company asset (treated for these purposes as an item of loss) that is taken into account in determining capital accounts under Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), (iii) the amount of cash and the Carrying Value of other Company property distributed to such Member (net of any liabilities relating to such distributed property that the Member is considered to assume or take subject to under Code Section 752 and (iv) without duplication, all allocations to such Member of expenditures of the Company described in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code (including expenditures treated as described in Section 705(a)(2)(B) of the Code under Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i) of the Treasury Regulations).

(c) Upon the transfer of an interest of a Member in the Company (i) if such transfer does not cause a termination of the Company within the meaning of Code Section 708(b)(1)(B), the Capital Account of the transferor Member that is attributable to the transferred interest will be carried over to the transferee Member and, if the Company has a Section 754 election in effect, the Capital Account will not be adjusted to reflect any adjustment under Code

Section 743, or (ii) if such transfer causes a termination of the Company within the meaning of Code Section 708(b)(1)(B), the income tax consequences of the contribution of the assets to the new limited liability company and the distribution of the membership interests in the new limited liability company (which for all other purposes continues to be the Company) to the Members shall be governed by the relevant provisions of Subchapter K of Chapter 1 of the Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, and the initial Capital Accounts of the Members in the new limited liability company shall be determined in accordance with the Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(d), (e), (f), (g) and (1) under Code Section 704(b) and thereafter in accordance with this Section 8.3.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no Member shall be entitled to withdraw or demand a refund or return of any Capital Contributions or any interest thereon. No return of a Member’s Capital Contributions shall be made hereunder if such distribution would violate applicable state law. Under circumstances requiring a return of any Capital Contribution, no Member shall have the right to demand or receive property other than cash, except as may be specifically provided in this Agreement.

(b) No Member shall receive any interest with respect to its Capital Contributions or its Capital Account.

9.1. Reserves. The Board shall have the right to set aside Company funds in such capital, operating or other reserves as the Board in its reasonable discretion determines to be prudent for the operation of the Company's business, including sums it deems necessary to reserve for the future payment or reduction of any Company obligations. In establishing such reserves, the Board shall take into account projected revenues and expenses as well as the distribution requirements of Sections 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4.

(a) Subject to Sections 10.3 and 10.4 , but notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX or Article X and prior to making any other distributions or allocations pursuant to such Articles (other than Section 10.3 and Section 10.4) for the relevant fiscal year, the Class C Member shall be entitled to special distributions and corresponding special allocations of gross income as described in this Section 9.2, such that, after giving effect to each such distribution and allocation the Class C Member’s Capital Account balance shall be equal to such balance immediately prior to such distribution and allocation. Special distributions and corresponding allocations of gross income shall be made to the Class C Member in any fiscal year in amounts equal to:

(x) (1) the Net Realized Built-In Gain, if any, (to the extent not reflected in a calculation pursuant to clause (y) below) multiplied by (2) the Class C Member Tax Rate divided by (3) one minus the Class C Member Tax Rate; and

(y) (1) the excess, if any, of depreciation calculated based upon initial Carrying Values over depreciation calculated based upon tax bases with respect to any Class C Contributed Asset which excess is allocated to the Class C Member, including, if applicable, the effect of any remedial or curative allocations made with respect to the Class C Member, multiplied by (2) the Class C Member Tax Rate divided by (3) one minus the Class C Member Tax Rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to make distributions or to make special allocations of gross income as provided in this Section 9.2(a) with respect to any transferee (other than a Permitted Transferee) of all or a portion of the Class C Member’s Membership Interest. The amount of Net Realized Built-In Gain shall be reduced by Cumulative Taxable Net Loss, provided that (1) the next allocations of Taxable Income (not including any Taxable Income (or items thereof) allocated pursuant to Sections 9.2, 9.3 or 10.5(b)) to the Class C Member (up to the amount of such reduction) shall be treated as Pre-Contribution Built In Gain subject to this Section 9.2 (the “Reduction Amount”) and (2) Cumulative Taxable Net Loss shall reduce such Net Realized Built-In Gain only to the extent that such losses may be used to actually reduce taxes owed by the Class C Member with respect to such Pre-Contribution Built-In Gain, taking into account the character of such losses, the impact of the alternative minimum tax and other similar items but not taking into account any limitation on the use of such losses occasioned by activities of the Class C Member outside of the Company after the contribution of the assets giving rise to the Pre-Contribution Built-In Gain.

(b) To the extent there is insufficient gross income in any fiscal year to make the allocations described in Section 9.2(a), the excess of the amount distributed to the Class C Member over the amount of the gross income allocations to the Class C Member pursuant to Section 9.2(a) shall be treated as a “guaranteed payment” within the meaning of Section 707 of the Code to the Class C Member and the related expense shall be allocated among the Members in proportion to their Interim Membership Percentage Interests.

(i) The “Class C Member Tax Rate” shall be equal to the actual U.S. federal and state income (or corporate franchise) tax rate applicable in such fiscal year to the Class C Member, determined without regard for any Taxable Income or Loss allocated to the Class C Member pursuant to Article X (other than section 10.5(b));

(ii) “Class C Contributed Asset” shall mean any asset contributed to the Company by the Class C Member pursuant to the Class C Member’s Contribution Agreement; and

(iii) “Pre-Contribution Built-In Gain” and “Pre-Contribution Built-In Loss” shall mean, with respect to each Class C Contributed Asset, the positive or

negative (as the case may be) difference between the initial Carrying Value of such asset and the adjusted tax basis of such asset at the time of contribution.

(iv) “Net Unrealized Built-In Gain” shall mean the excess of the total Pre-Contribution Built-In Gain over the total Pre-Contribution Built-In Loss as of the date hereof.

(v) “Net Realized Built-In Gain” shall mean, with respect to any relevant period, the excess of the Pre-Contribution Built-In Gain that is allocated to the Class C Member upon a sale or other disposition of a Class C Contributed Asset by the Company during such period over the cumulative amount of Pre-Contribution Built-In Loss realized during that period and all prior periods and not previously taken into account in calculating Net Realized Built-In Gain or a payment pursuant to Section 9.2(e), provided that Pre-Contribution Built-In Loss shall be taken into account in calculating Net Realized Built-In Gain only to the extent that such losses may be used to actually reduce taxes owed by the Class C Member, taking into account the character of such losses, the impact of the alternative minimum tax and other similar items. Furthermore, the amount of any loss realized by the Class C Member with respect to Chateau Duhart-Milon SCA shall be treated as a Pre-Contribution Built-In Loss and taken into account in calculating Net Realized Built-In Gain in the year that such amount is deductible by the Class C Member or any of its Affiliates.

(vi) “Cumulative Taxable Net Loss” shall mean the excess of the amount of Taxable Loss (not including any Taxable Loss (or items thereof) allocated pursuant to Sections 9.2, 9.3 or 10.5(b)) allocated to the Class C Member during the fiscal year and all prior fiscal periods over the amount of Taxable Income (not including any Taxable Income (or items thereof) allocated pursuant to Sections 9.2, 9.3 or 10.5(b)) allocated to the Class C Member during the fiscal year and all prior fiscal periods.

(d) The distributions required under this Section 9.2 shall be made at the same time as the distributions described in clause First of Section 9.4(a).

(e) To the extent the Class C Member actually realizes a tax benefit with respect to a Pre-Contribution Built-In Loss which has not previously been taken into account in calculating Net Realized Built-In Gain, the Class C Member shall pay over the amount of such tax benefit actually realized, and future allocations of Net Income and Loss shall be made, in such a manner so as to put the parties in as close to the same position as they would have been if such Pre-Contribution Built-In Loss had been contemporaneously netted against an equal amount of Pre-Contribution Built-In Gain.

9.3. Special Distribution and Allocation Upon Sale of Class C Member’s Interest. Subject to Sections 9.2, 9.3(c), 10.3 and 10.4, but notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX or Article X and prior to making any other distributions or allocations pursuant to such Articles (other than Sections 9.2, 9.3(c), 10.3 and 10.4) for the relevant fiscal year, in connection with any taxable sale or other disposition by the Class C Member of all or any portion of its Membership Interest, other than a Transfer pursuant to Section 11.2(b), the Class C Member shall be entitled to a special distribution and corresponding allocation of gross income

by the Company immediately prior to such sale or other disposition equal to the result of (x) the remaining Net Unrealized Built-In Gain, if any, of the Class C Contributed Assets (including, solely for this purpose, any remaining Reduction Amount not previously treated as Pre-Contribution Built-In Gain subject to the special distribution and allocation provisions of Section 9.2) at the time of such taxable sale or other disposition, multiplied by (y) the Class C Member Tax Rate divided by (z) one-minus the Class C Member Tax Rate, multiplied by (z) the portion (expressed as a percentage) of the Class C Member’s Membership Interest that is being sold or otherwise disposed of.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to make distributions or to make special allocations of gross income as provided in Section 9.3(a) with respect to any transferee (other than a Permitted Transferee) of all or a portion of the Class C Member’s Membership Interest.

(a) The Company, to the extent there exist Available Funds, shall make the following distributions of Available Funds to its Members in the following order of priority, subject to modification of this provision by the Board pursuant to Section 4.5(c)(xiv):

First, to the Members, pro rata in accordance with their Interim Membership Percentage Interests, a payment in an amount at least sufficient, as reasonably determined by the Board, to permit each Member to pay its estimated federal, state and local income taxes on its allocable share of the Taxable Income (not including any Taxable Income or Loss (or items thereof) allocated pursuant to Sections 9.2, 9.3 or 10.5(b)) of the Company allocated to such Member in accordance with this Agreement, assuming an income tax rate equal to the highest overall effective tax rate then in effect for any Member (whether or not that rate is applicable to all Members or is the rate actually paid by any Member on its income, the “Assumed Tax Rate”). The Board shall take into account the cross-deductibility of federal, state and local taxes, any losses that have been previously allocated to Members and any varying interest of the Members during the year. The distribution pursuant to this clause First of Section 9.4(a), if any, shall be made annually on or before March 31 of the year following the year in which such Taxable Income was earned, provided that if the Taxable Income of the Company for any year has not yet been determined as of the following March 31, the Board shall (to the extent of Available Funds) make a distribution based upon its good faith estimate of such Taxable Income, subject to adjustment (and prompt repayment by the Members of any excess amounts distributed) when the actual Taxable Income for that year has been determined, and provided further that the Board, in its reasonable discretion, may make distributions pursuant to this clause First of Section 9.4(a) at such times and in such amounts (based on estimates) as is appropriate to permit the Members to make estimated tax payments with respect to their allocable shares of such Taxable Income, as advances in respect of Tax Distributions to be made pursuant to this clause First.. To the extent that there are insufficient Available Funds for distribution to make the full amount of any distribution pursuant to this clause First of Section 9.4(a), any shortfall shall be distributed to the Members as soon as practicable when such cash becomes available.

Second, upon the request of any Member, at such times as may be determined by the Board (but in no event later than six months following the end of the fiscal year for which the request is made) and to the extent there exist Available Funds after any distributions made in accordance with Section 9.2, Section 9.3, and clause First of Section 9.4(a) above, an aggregate of $1,500,000 to the Members, pro rata in accordance with their Interim Membership Percentage Interests.

Third, beginning with the fiscal year of the Company which begins on or after the seventh anniversary of the Effective Date, an aggregate amount which, together with the distributions made pursuant to clauses First and Second of this Section 9.4(a), will be equal to 75% of the excess of Available Funds over the amount distributed pursuant to Sections 9.2 or 9.3, in each fiscal year of the Company, such distribution to be made to the Members pro rata in accordance with their Interim Membership Percentage Interests and at such times as may be determined by the Board.

Provided however, following the Measurement Date, to the extent there exist Available Funds after the making of any distributions then required by Sections 9.2 and 9.3 or payable under clause First of Section 9.4(a) above with respect to Taxable Income that has already been allocated (after taking into account any adjustment to the Interim Membership Percentage Interests from and after the Measurement Date and any amounts contributed to the Company as required by Annex B and Section 13.2(a)), the Company shall make distributions to each Member to the extent necessary to cause the percentage of the cumulative amount of all Net Distributions with respect to such Member’s Membership Interest to be in proportion to the then current Interim Membership Percentage Interest (or Final Membership Percentage Interest, if applicable) that corresponds to such Member’s Membership Interest. For purposes of this Agreement, “Net Distributions” shall mean, with respect to each Membership Interest, the amount of actual distributions pursuant to this Article IX or Article XIII (but excluding distributions pursuant to Sections 9.2 and 9.3) received by a Member (or predecessor in interest of a Member) with respect to such Membership Interest since the Measurement Date, less the amount of all contributions made to the Company with respect to such Membership Interest by such Member (or the predecessor in interest of such Member) as required by Annex B or Section 13.2(a). To the extent that at the time of any distributions are required under this proviso, Available Funds are insufficient to satisfy the amount of all distributions described in this proviso, then such Available Funds as are available for distribution shall be distributed to each Member in proportion to the amount distributable to such Member pursuant to this proviso.

(b) For purposes of this Section 9.4 and Article IX, “Members” shall be limited to Class A Members, Class B Members, Class C Members and those Class D Members who at the time of the applicable distribution are entitled to receive distributions hereunder. With respect to such Class D Members, if the terms of their Class D Membership Interests limit the distributions to which they are entitled or otherwise modify the pro rata rules set forth in this Article IX, this Article IX will be deemed to have been modified to reflect such variances.

(c) Any amounts withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any state or local tax law with respect to any payment, distribution or allocation to the Company or the Members shall be treated as amounts distributed to the Members pursuant to this Article IX for all purposes of this Agreement. The Board is authorized to withhold from distributions and to pay over to any federal, state or local government any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provision of any other federal, state or local law and shall allocate such amounts to those Members with respect to which such amounts were withheld.

9.5. Pro Rata Distributions. To the extent that at the time of payment of any distributions under Sections 9.2, 9.3, or 9.4 hereof, Available Funds are insufficient to satisfy the amount of all Distributions described in such sections, then such funds that are available for distribution shall be distributed in accordance with the priorities set forth in such sections. In the event more than one Member shall be entitled to equal priority with respect to the amount of any distribution, then such funds available for distribution with respect to such priority shall be applied to each Member in proportion to the amount payable to such Member with respect to such priority.

9.6. Restriction on Distributions. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, payment of distributions under Sections 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4 may be made by the Company only to the extent that such payment would not violate applicable financing or credit agreements of the Company, and no distribution may be made by the Company to any Member in violation of the Act (including Section 18-607 thereof).

9.7. Passed Distributions. If any Member assigns all or part of its interest in the Company in a Transfer permitted under the terms of this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed by the assigning Member and the assignee, the assignee shall be entitled to receive, to the extent of the interest in the Company assigned, the amount of any distributions required to be made to the assigning Member under Sections 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4 of this Agreement that were not actually made prior to the date of the assignment (“passed distributions”), when such passed distributions are made by the Company.

9.8. Capital Account Limitations; Liquidation. Except as provided in this Section 9.8, no distribution will be made to a Member that would create a negative balance in the Capital Account of that Member or increase the amount by which such Capital Account balance is negative. Any amount not distributed in accordance with the previous sentence will be distributed to the Member (to the extent that there are sufficient Available Funds) as soon as such distribution would not violate the first sentence of this Section 9.8(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a distribution to any Class D Member would violate the first sentence of this Section 9.8(a), such amount shall be paid to such Class D Member as a “guaranteed payment” within the meaning of Section 707 of the Code to such Class D Member and the related expense shall be allocated among the other Members (other than other Class D Members) in proportion to their then current Interim Membership Percentage Interests.

(b) Upon the liquidation of the Company (as defined in Section 9.9), liquidation proceeds, if any, shall be distributed in accordance with Section 13.2(a).

9.9. Certain Definition. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “liquidation of the Company” shall mean either (a) a termination of the Company, which shall be deemed to occur on the date upon which the Company ceases to be a going concern and is continued in existence solely to wind up its affairs, or (b) a termination of the Company pursuant to section 708(b)(1)(A) of the Code.

10.1. Net Income. Except as otherwise provided in this Article X, Net Income for any fiscal year or other applicable period shall be allocated to the Members, as follows:

First, to all Members which were allocated any Excess Net Loss (as defined in Section 10.2), before any other allocation of Net Income hereunder, an amount of Net Income equal and in proportion to, the amount of Excess Net Loss previously allocated to such Members.

Second, following the Measurement Date, to the Members such that following the allocation pursuant to this clause Second, the cumulative net amount of Net Income and Net Loss allocated to each Member since the Measurement Date is in proportion to its then current Interim Membership Percentage Interest. To the extent that at the time of any allocation under this clause Second, Net Income is insufficient to satisfy the amount of all allocations described in this clause Second, then such Net Income as is available for allocation shall be allocated to each Member in proportion to the amount allocable to such Member pursuant to this clause Second.

Third, to all Members in accordance with their Interim Membership Percentage Interests.

10.2. Net Loss. Except as otherwise provided in this Article X, Net Loss for each fiscal year or other applicable period shall be allocated as follows:

First, subsequent to the Measurement Date, to the Members such that following the allocation pursuant to this clause First, the cumulative net amount of Net Income and Net Loss allocated to each Member since the Measurement Date is in proportion to its then current Interim Membership Percentage Interest. To the extent that at the time of any allocations under this clause First, Net Loss is insufficient to satisfy the amount of all allocations described in this clause First, then such Net Loss as is available for allocation shall be allocated to each Member in proportion to the amount allocable to such Member pursuant to this clause First.

Second, to the Members in accordance with their respective Interim Membership Percentage Interests, provided that no Net Loss shall be allocated to any Member if the effect of such allocation would be to create a deficit Capital Account balance in excess of such Member’s “restoration amount” (as defined in Section 10.3) at a time when any other Member has a positive Capital Account balance and such Net Loss (“Excess Net Loss”) shall instead be allocated to the Member(s) with positive Capital Account balance(s) (pro rata to such positive balances) until such balances have been reduced to a negative balance equal to the “restoration

amount”, and any remaining Net Loss shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Interim Membership Percentage Interests.

(a) No Member shall be allocated any Net Loss (or item thereof) to the extent such allocation would cause or increase a deficit balance in such Member’s Capital Account in excess of the amount such Member is obligated to restore to the Company pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-(b)(2)(ii) (or is treated as obligated to restore to the Company pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(1)) (the sum of such amounts being hereinafter referred to as the “restoration amount”). A Member who unexpectedly receives an adjustment, allocation or distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6) which creates or increases a deficit balance in such Member’s Capital Account in excess of such Member’s restoration amount will be allocated items of income and gain (consisting of a pro rata portion of Company income, including gross income and gain) in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate such deficit balance as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 10.3(a) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit balance in its Capital Account after all other allocations provided for in this Article X have been tentatively made as if this Section 10.3(a) were not in the Agreement.

(b) Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(f), notwithstanding any other provision of this Article X, if there is a net decrease in Company Minimum Gain during any fiscal year of the Company, each Member shall be specially allocated items of income and gain for such fiscal year (and, if necessary, subsequent fiscal years) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Company Minimum Gain, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(g). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the representative amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 10.3(b) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2 and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4), notwithstanding any other provision of this Article X, if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during any fiscal year of the Company, each Member who has a share of Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(5), shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such fiscal year (and, if necessary, subsequent fiscal years) in an amount equal to such Member's share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Regulations Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 10.3(c) is intended to comply with the

minimum gain chargeback requirement in Regulations Section 1.704-2 and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(d) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be specially allocated among the Members in proportion to their respective Interim Membership Percentage Interests.

(e) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any fiscal year or other period shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1).

10.4. Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Section 10.3 hereof (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss and deduction pursuant to this Section 10.4. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of Article X (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Company shall make such offsetting special allocations in such manner as the Board (by Majority Approval) may determine is appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the maximum extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Partner would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all Partnership items were allocated pursuant to Sections 10.1 and 10.2 (ignoring the proviso in clause Second of Section 10.2).

(a) Items of Income or Loss. Except as is otherwise provided in this Article X, an allocation of Net Income or Net Loss to a Member shall be treated as an allocation to such Member of the same share of each item of income, gain, loss, deduction and item of tax-exempt income or Code Section 705(a)(2)(B) expenditure (or item treated as such expenditure pursuant to Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(i)) (“Tax Items”) that is taken into account in computing Net Income or Net Loss.

(b) Precontribution Gain or Loss. Except as may otherwise be unanimously agreed by the Board with respect to any assets contributed by the Class C Member, the Company shall use the allocation method contained in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b)(1) to take into account any variation between the adjusted tax basis at the time of the contribution and the initial Carrying Value of any property contributed to the Company.

(c) Reverse 704(c) Allocations. In the event the Capital Accounts of the Members are adjusted pursuant to Section 10.6 as a result of the revaluation of the assets of the Company and the Carrying Value of the Company’s assets differs from their adjusted tax basis, the Members’ distributive shares of depreciation, amortization, income gain, or loss, as computed for tax purposes, with respect to such assets shall be determined so as to take account of the variation between the adjusted tax basis and the Carrying Value of such assets in the same

manner as under section 704(c) of the Code and otherwise in accordance with Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(4) and (b)(4)(i).

(d) Change in Percentage Interests. If any Member’s Interim Membership Percentage Interest or share of distributions changes during a fiscal year for any reason, including, without limitation, the Transfer of any interest in the Company, the tax allocations contained in this Article X shall be applied as necessary to reflect the varying interests of the Members during such year.

(e) References to Regulations. Any reference in this Article X to a provision of proposed and/or temporary Regulations shall, if such provision is modified or renumbered, be deemed to refer to the successor provision as so modified or renumbered, but only to the extent that such successor provision applies to the Company under the effective date rules applicable to such successor provision.

10.6. Revaluation. Upon the occurrence of any of the events described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f)(5), the Carrying Value of all Company properties shall be adjusted upwards or downwards to reflect their then fair market value as determined in good faith by the Board. Any resulting Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss shall be allocated to the Members as agreed by the Board in accordance with Section 10.9, or if no such agreement is reached, pursuant to this Article X, but excluding Section 10.8, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss were recognized upon an actual sale of such properties.

(a) For purposes of this Article X, “Members” shall be limited to Class A Members, Class B Members, Class C Members and those Class D Members who at the time of the applicable allocation are entitled to receive allocations of profit and loss hereunder. With respect to such Class D Members, if the terms of their Class D Membership Interests limit the allocations to which they are entitled or otherwise modify the pro rata rules set forth in this Article X, this Article X will be deemed to have been modified to reflect such variances.

(b) For purposes of this Article X, a transferee of an interest in the Company shall be deemed to have been allocated the Net Income, Net Loss and other items of Company income, gain, loss, deduction and credit that previously have been allocated to the transferor Member pursuant to this Agreement.

10.8. Allocations Upon Liquidation or Sale. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article X to the contrary, upon a liquidation in accordance with Section 13.2 (a “Liquidation”) or Sale of the Company or substantially all the assets thereof, any Net Income or Net Loss realized (or deemed realized with respect to assets distributed in kind) upon such event (but not on other events described in Section 10.6) shall be allocated among the Members such that following the allocation pursuant to this Section 10.8, the Capital Account balance of each Member is equal to the sum of:

(a) the positive or negative difference between (i) the product of such Member’s Final Membership Percentage Interest and the aggregate distributions (other than

pursuant to Section 9.2 and 9.3) to all Members since the Measurement Date and (ii) the Net Distributions made with respect to such Member’s Membership Interest, and

(b) the product of such Member’s Final Percentage Interest and the Liquidation Value of the Company calculated taking into account the transactions occurring in connection with the Liquidation or Sale of the Company and any unrealized appreciation deemed realized.

To the extent that at the time of any allocations under this Section 10.8, Net Loss or Net Income is insufficient to satisfy the amount of all allocations described in this Section, then such Net Income or Net Loss as is available for allocation shall be allocated to each Member in proportion to the amount allocable to such Member pursuant to this Section 10.8. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Net Income or Net Loss exceeds the amount necessary to adjust the Members’ Capital Accounts in accordance with this section, any excess will be allocated among the Members in accordance with their Final Membership Percentage Interests.

10.9. Allocations Upon Book-up or Sale of Significant Assets. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article X to the contrary, upon a revaluation of Company properties in accordance with Section 10.6 (other than a Sale or Liquidation described in Section 10.8), or the sale of assets, which in the reasonable judgment of the Board are significant assets, any Net Income or Net Loss realized (or deemed realized) upon such event shall be allocated among the Members as agreed to by all members of the Board consistent with the principles reflected in Sections 10.8 and 13.2 or on such other basis as the Board reasonably determines is likely to have “substantial economic effect” as such term is used in Treas. Reg. §1.704-1(b)(2).

11.1. Transfer of Member Interests; Withdrawal. No Member shall have the right or power (a) directly or indirectly, to Transfer or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of its interest as a Member in the Company, or to grant or assign any participation in its right to receive distributions or allocations or profits or losses in respect thereof, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, or (b) to withdraw prior to the dissolution or winding up of the Company, except (as to clause (a) or (b)) (i) as provided in Section 11.2. 11.6 or Article XIII, or (ii) with the prior written consent of each of the Class A, Class B and Class C Directors, which consent may be granted or withheld by any such Director in his sole discretion. Any attempt to Transfer a Member’s interest in the Company, or to withdraw from the Company, in violation of this Section 11.1 shall be void, the Company shall refuse to recognize any such Transfer and shall not reflect on its records any change in record ownership of a Membership Interest pursuant to any such Transfer, and the Member attempting to effect such Transfer or withdrawal shall indemnify the Company for any costs or expenses it may incur in connection with the attempted Transfer or withdrawal.

(a) No Member may Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interest on or prior to January 1, 2011, except in a Permitted Transfer (as defined in Section 11.2(b)). No Member may Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interest after January 1, 2011, except (i) in a Permitted Transfer, or (ii) pursuant to the following provisions of this Section 11.2.

(b) For purposes of this Section 11.2, a “Permitted Transfer” shall mean any Transfer by a Class A Member, Class B Member or Class C Member to any Affiliate of such Member of its entire Class A, Class B or Class C Membership Interest (as applicable, a “Permitted Transferee”), provided that (i) no Permitted Transfer shall release the Transferring Member from its liabilities and obligations to the Company or the other Members under this Agreement, (ii) in connection with such Transfer, the Transferring Member shall deliver to the Company an acknowledgement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Board, of its continuing responsibility for all payment and performance obligations to the Company and the other Members under this Agreement, the Joint Venture Agreement among the Members dated as of the date hereof and any other agreements and instruments entered into by it pursuant to such Joint Venture Agreement, and (iii) without the unanimous consent of the non-Transferring Class A Members, Class B Members and Class C Members (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), no Transfer described in this Section 11.2(b) shall constitute a Permitted Transfer if such Transfer would result in a “termination” of the Company under Section 708(b)(i)(B) of the Code.

(c) If after January 1, 2011 a Member (the “Offeror Member”) desires to Transfer all or any portion of its Membership Interest, or any of CBI, HVL or DBR desires to transfer an interest in any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary which would result in a Transfer of a Membership Interest in the Company (a “Subsidiary Sale”), then the Offeror Member shall first offer such Membership Interest to the other Members (the “Offeree Members”) by giving written notice of such offer (the “Offer”) to the Board and the Offeree Members, stating the portion of its Membership Interest it proposes to sell (which, in the case of a Subsidiary Sale shall be the entire Membership Interest), the offer price, the type and amount of consideration it will accept (it being understood that the Offeror Member must be willing to accept all cash but may propose additional options as well) and, in reasonable detail, all other material matters relating to the Offer.

(d) 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 the earliest of the closing of a sale by the Offeror Member, abandonment by the Offeror Member of the proposed sale or expiration of the time to consummate such a sale, neither Offeree Member may initiate a sale of its Membership Interest.

(i) Each of the Offeree Members shall have the option to accept the Offer, exercisable by giving written notice of acceptance (the “Notice of Acceptance”) to the Offeror Member, with a copy to the other Offeree Member, within 120 days after receipt of the Offer (the “Offer Period”). Each Offeree Member, in its Notice of Acceptance, shall indicate whether it is prepared to purchase the entire Membership Interest offered by the Offeror Member in the event the other Offeree

Member declines or otherwise fails to accept the Offer within the Offer Period. If both Offeree Members accept the Offer within the Offer Period, they shall purchase, pro rata to their Membership Units, the Membership Interest offered by the Offeror Member upon the terms of the Offer. If one Offeree Member accepts the Offer and has indicated in its Notice of Acceptance that it is prepared to purchase the entire Membership Interest being offered, that Offeree Member shall purchase the Membership Interest offered by the Offeror Member upon the terms of the Offer. If only one Offeree Member accepts the Offer and does not indicate in its Notice of Acceptance that it is prepared to purchase the entire Membership Interest being offered, the Offer will be deemed to have been declined.

(ii) The closing of the transfer of the Membership Interest pursuant to the Offer shall take place on a date selected by the purchasing Offeree Member or Members not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days after delivery of the last-to-be delivered Notice of Acceptance.

(iii) If the Offeree Members do not elect to purchase all of the offered Membership Interest within the Offer Period, then the Offeror Member shall have 180 days from the earlier of (x) notification of decline of the Offer from the last-to-respond of the Offeree Members, and (y) expiration of the Offer Period, within which to sell the offered Membership Interest to a third party on terms and conditions (including price) no more favorable in the aggregate to the third party than those set forth in the Offer.

(e) If, within 15 days of receipt of the Offer, a second Member gives notice that it will join the Offeror Member’s offer to sell, then the following procedures will apply.

(i) The notice from the second Offeror Member shall state the portion of such Member’s Membership Interest it proposes to sell, the offer price, the consideration it will accept and, in reasonable detail, all other material matters relating to its Offer (the “Second Offer”, the original Offer for purposes of this Section 11.2(e) being hereinafter referred to as the “First Offer” and the First Offer and Second Offer collectively as the “Offers”). The terms of the Second Offer (including price) shall be substantially identical to those of the First Offer.

(ii) The remaining Offeree Member shall have the option to accept all or a portion of the Offers of the Offeror Members by giving a Notice of Acceptance to the Offeror Members within 120 days the Offer Period (which shall not be extended by virtue of the making of the Second Offer). If the Offeree Member accepts the Offers within the Offer Period, it shall purchase the Membership Interests offered by the Offeror Members upon the terms of their respective Offers. If the Offeree Member accepts less than all of the Membership Interests subject to the Offers, the Offeree Member shall purchase the Membership Interests subject to the Offers pro rata based on the Membership Percentage Interest represented by the Membership Interest offered by each Member Offeror. If the Offeree Member accepts less than all of the Membership Interests subject to the Offers, each Offeror Member may, at its option, either sell the

portion of the Membership Interest accepted by the Offeree Member or take any action permitted by clause (iii) below as if the entire Offer were rejected.

(iii) If the Offeree Member does not elect to purchase all of the offered Membership Interests, then the Offeror Members shall have 180 days from the earlier of (x) notification of decline of the Offer from the Offeree Member, and (y) expiration of the Offer Period within which to either (A) sell the offered Membership Interests to one or more third parties on terms and conditions (including price) no more favorable to the third parties than those set forth in their respective Offers or (B) by agreement between themselves, cause the Company or its assets to be sold to a Person not an Affiliate of either Offeror Member on such terms as the Offeror Members may determine.

(iv) If the Offeror Members choose to sell their Membership Interests pursuant to clause (e)(iii)(A), then at the option of the Offeror Members, to be exercised by notice to the Offeree Member no later than 30 days prior to the closing date of the sale, the Offeree Member shall sell its Membership Interest on the same terms and conditions as the Offeror Members. Should the Offeror Members not exercise their option to require the Offeree Member to sell its Membership Interest, the Offeree Member shall nonetheless have the option, to be exercised by notice to the Offeror Members no later than 25 days prior to the closing date of the sale, to sell its Membership Interest in the sale on the same terms and conditions as the Offeror Members.

(v) If the Offeror Members choose to cause the Company or its assets to be sold pursuant to clause (e)(iii)(B), then the remaining Member shall give its consent and otherwise grant any necessary approvals to such sale.

(f) Time shall be of the essence with respect to exercise of all rights to buy or sell under the provisions of this Section 11.2.

(g) For purposes of Section 11.2(c)-(e), “Members” shall include only Class A Members, Class B Members and Class C Members except as otherwise provided in the terms and conditions of the Class D Membership Interests, provided that upon a sale of Membership Interests or of the Company or its assets to a third party pursuant to Section 11.2(e), the Class D Members shall at the request of the Offeror Members be required to sell their Class D Membership Interests to the third party (on terms which are equivalent to those received by the other Members, taking into account any differences in the rights and privileges of the Class D Membership Interests but without any discount for differences in voting or transferability of the Class D Membership Interests that might be different than those of the other Members) or to give their consent and otherwise grant any necessary approvals to the sale.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XI, a Member may not Transfer all or any portion of its interest if such Transfer would result in the Company becoming a “publicly-traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code.

11.3. Additional Restrictions on Transfer. Any Transfer of a Membership Interest which is permitted pursuant to Section 11.2 shall be subject to the following additional requirements and conditions:

(a) The Board may require the transferee to pay a Transfer fee to the Company sufficient to cover all reasonable expenses connected with the assignment, including legal fees, and to do all other things and execute and deliver all such papers as may be necessary or reasonably requested by the Board in order to consummate the Transfer of such Membership Interest.

(b) The transferee shall deliver to the Company a signed counterpart of this Agreement or a written acknowledgment that the Membership Interest to be received in such proposed Transfer is subject to this Agreement and that the proposed recipient and its successors in interest are bound hereby and agree to comply with this Agreement, each such document to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Board.

(c) Such Transfer, if legally required, shall be made pursuant to an effective registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from such registration, and prior to any such Transfer the Member proposing to Transfer a Membership Interest shall give the Company (i) notice describing the manner and circumstances of the proposed Transfer (copies of which the Company shall furnish to each Member following receipt thereof by the Company) and (ii) if such Transfer is to be made pursuant to an exemption from such registration and if reasonably requested by the Company, a written opinion of counsel, who shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, such opinion to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, to the effect that the proposed Transfer of Membership Interest may be effected without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws.

(d) An approved transferee will, subject to compliance with the requirements of this Article XII, become a substitute or additional Member, entitled to receive the transferor Member's share of distributions and allocations and other rights of a Member holding the Class of Membership Interest Transferred to it.

(a) Any Person wishing to be admitted to the Company as an additional Class A, Class B or Class C Member, other than by virtue of the Transfer to such Person of a Membership Interest pursuant to Sections 11.2 and 11.3, may be admitted only with the Unanimous Approval of the Board, which approval may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the Directors and may be made subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Board may require.

(b) Upon the admission of a substitute or additional Member, Schedule I annexed hereto shall be amended to reflect the revised Membership Units of the Members. No Person shall become a Member until such Person shall have become a party to, and adopted all of the terms and conditions of, this Agreement.

11.5. Financial Adjustments. No new Members shall be entitled to any retroactive allocation of losses, income, or expense deductions incurred by the Company. The Directors may, at their option, at the time a Member is admitted, close the Company books (as though the Company's tax year had ended) or make pro rata allocations of income, loss and expense deductions to a new Member for that portion of the Company's tax year in which a Member was admitted in accordance with the provisions of Code Section 706(a) and the Regulations promulgated thereunder.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs with respect to CBI, HVL or DBR, the Class A Member (upon a Change of Control with respect to CBI), the Class B Member (upon a Change of Control with respect to HVL) or the Class C Member (upon a Change of Control with respect to DBR) (as applicable, the “Affected Member”) shall promptly (and in no event later than ten Business Days after consummation of the Change of Control) notify the other Members, identifying in reasonable detail the Person or Persons who have assumed control with respect to CBI, HVL or DBR, as the case may be. The other Members will then have the right, by notice given to the Affected Member no later than forty-five (45) days after receipt of notice of the Change of Control from the Affected Member (or, if no such notice is given, the date they actually discover the Change of Control has occurred) to either sell their Membership Interests to the Affected Member or purchase the entire Membership Interest held by the Affected Member, in either case at the fair market value thereof. The decision to purchase or sell must be made jointly by the other Members. In the absence of agreement, or if no notice of purchase or sale is given within the forty-five (45) day period specified above, no purchase or sale shall take place and the Affected Member shall continue as a Member of the Company with no modification to its rights or obligations. If the other Members choose to purchase the Membership Interest held by the Affected Member, each of the other Members will purchase its pro rata share of such Membership Interest, based upon their respected Membership Units, provided that the other Members may agree between themselves (which agreement will be binding upon the Affected Member) that one of them will purchase the Membership Interests of the other two Members, that they will divide the purchase of the Affected Member’s Membership Interest among themselves on a non-pro rata basis or that the Company will purchase the Affected Member’s Membership Interest.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed among the Affected Member and the other Members, any sale pursuant to this Section 11.6 shall be for cash, payable in full at the closing of the purchase and sale, and shall be made on an “as is, where is” basis without representations from any party other than customary representations as to title to the Membership Interests being Transferred and due authorization, power and authority for the Transfer. The closing of the transfer shall take place at the offices of the Company, at a time specified by the purchasing Member which shall be no later than the later of (i) ninety (90) days following delivery of the notice of purchase or sale from the other Members, and (ii) ten (10) days following resolution of the fair market value of the Membership Interests being Transferred in accordance with Section 11.6(c).

(c) The fair market value of any Membership Interest to be sold hereunder will be the amount that would be distributed to the holder of such Membership Interest if the

Company’s assets, subject to its liabilities, were sold at an aggregate amount equal to the fair market value of the Company as a going concern in an arms-length sale between a willing buyer and seller (“Going Concern Value”), the Company liquidated and the liquidation proceeds distributed to the Members in accordance with Section 13.2. Unless it is determined by agreement among the Affected Member and the other Members, fair market value of a Membership Interest for purposes of this Section 11.6 will be determined by the following process: No later than thirty (30) days after delivery of the notice of purchase or sale from the other Members, the Affected Member, on the one hand, and the other Members (by agreement between them), on the other hand, will each specify a Going Concern Value of the Company, including with their submission 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 Company’s business. The arbitrator shall conduct a hearing to receive additional information about the basis of and support for the two proposals. The arbitrator will then determine the Going Concern Value of the Company 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 sold will then be determined by the Company’s management based upon the Going Concern Value so established, by application of Section 13.2. If any Member disagrees with the value established by management and that disagreement cannot be resolved between or among the concerned Members, the determination of the fair market value of the Membership Interest or Interests to be sold based upon the established Going Concern Value will be resubmitted to the arbitrator. The timing and procedure before the arbitrator (including the requirement that the arbitrator choose the value of one or the other of the competing proposals) will be the same as that followed for the original establishment of the Going Concern Value.

(d) For purposes of this Section 11.6, the “other Members” shall include only Class A Members, Class B Members and Class C Members except as otherwise provided in the terms and conditions of the Class D Membership Interests.

11.7. Effect of Transfer of Membership Interests to Another Member. If at any time any Class A Member, Class B Member or Class C Member should acquire a majority or more of the Class A, Class B or Class C Membership Interest of another Member, then effective upon such acquisition all actions of the Board shall require Unanimous Approval, subject to the following:

(a) The determination under Section 3.3(a) whether the Company should seek to pursue a Reserved Business Opportunity for its own account shall be made solely by the Directors designated by the Member other than the Notifying Member.

(b) The determination under Section 4.5(b)(ii) to terminate the Chief Executive Officer and any other determination with regard to the relative rights and responsibilities of the Chief Executive Officer shall be made by Majority Approval of the Board, except that any determination to terminate Agustin Franciscan Huneeus as Chief Executive Officer without “Cause” pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement with the Company shall require Unanimous Approval if the Class A Interest is no longer held by the Class A Member or an Affiliate of CBI.

12.1. Business Plan Deadlock. If the Board fails to approve the Business Plan in any two successive years, beginning with the fiscal year which commences January 1, 2007, then the following process shall be followed, to be commenced by the Members no later than the date (the “Initiation Date”) which is the first day of the fiscal year immediately following the second fiscal year of deadlock:

(a) The Members shall first negotiate in good faith to resolve the issue and agree upon the Business Plan or to agree on a voluntary sale or dissolution of the Company or the interests of any Member therein. If no resolution is reached by representatives of the Members, the dispute will be referred for resolution to the chief executive (or equivalent) officers of each of the Members.

(b) If no agreement is reached among the Members within 120 days following the Initiation Date, then the following blind auction process shall be initiated:

(i) A majority of the Members shall jointly designate an independent third party (the “Bid Holder”) to whom any Member wishing to do so may submit a sealed offer for the purchase of the Company as a going concern and as an entirety. All offers must be for an all cash purchase, payable at closing, and be accompanied by evidence of the availability of the full cash purchase price and/or a firm commitment for financing of the full cash purchase price from a reputable financial institution. Any such bid must be submitted no later than 240 days following the Initiation Date.

(ii) The Member submitting the highest offer must purchase the Membership Interests of all other Members. If more than one Member submits the same highest offer, they may 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 a random process agreed to by the Members having submitted those offers or, failing agreement, specified by the Bid Holder.

(A) The price paid to each selling Member which submitted an offer pursuant to clause (b)(i) shall be based upon the offer submitted by that Member. The price paid to each selling Member which did not submit an offer pursuant to clause (b)(i) and to the holders of Class D Membership Interests shall be based upon the offer submitted by the purchasing Member.

(B) The purchase of Membership Interests contemplated by this Section 12.1(b)(ii) shall be treated as a Sale for purposes of Annex B hereto.

(C) Each selling Member, including holders of Class D Membership Interests, shall be paid an amount equal to the amount it would

have received had the Company’s assets, subject to its liabilities, been sold to a third party at the applicable offer price determined in accordance with Section 12.1(b)(ii)(A), the Company been liquidated and the liquidation proceeds distributed to the Members in accordance with Section 13.2. If the Members are unable to agree on the amount of such liquidation proceeds, the determination of such amount will be submitted to the arbitrator in accordance with the procedures, including timing, of Section 11.6(c).

(iii) The closing of any purchase under this Section 12.1(b) will be held at the offices of the Company on a date selected by the buying Member, which date shall be no later than 60 days after the date such Member is finally determined to be the buyer.

(iv) If the buying Member selected pursuant to Section 12.1(b)(ii) fails to close on the closing date specified in accordance with Section 12.1(b)(iii) or within five Business Days thereafter, other than as a result of the failure or refusal of all selling Members to close, that buying Member will promptly reimburse the other Members for all reasonable costs incurred by them in connection with the auction process specified in this Section 12.1(b) and pay to them, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the difference between the amount they would have realized had that buying Member consummated the purchase in accordance with its offer and the amount they actually realize from the sale or liquidation pursuant to this Section 12.1 or Article XIII. If there is at least one other Member who submitted an offer, then the Member who submitted the next highest offer will become the buying Member and the original buying Member shall become a selling Member. The price paid by the substitute buying Member shall be adjusted such that the price paid both to the original buying Member and to any Member which did not submit an offer, including any holder of Class D Membership Interests, shall be based upon the offer of the substitute buying Member.

(v) Should the substitute buying Member designated pursuant to Section 12.1(b)(iv) also fail to close, the provisions of Section 12.1(b)(iv) as to reimbursement of expenses (but not liquidated damages) and selection of another buying Member shall be applied again, as if the substitute buying Member were the original buying Member.

(c) If the process in Sections 12.1(b)(i)-(v) above does not result in a sale of all of the Membership Interests to a single Member, including if no offers are submitted by the Members, the Members will jointly appoint an investment banker of recognized standing in the California wine industry to value the Company and solicit bids from third parties to buy the entire Company. If one or more bids within the valuation range provided by the investment banker are received from Persons not Affiliates of the Members, the Company will be sold to the Person which submitted the highest and best of such bids. Otherwise, the Company shall be dissolved and its assets distributed in accordance with Article XIII.

13.1. Dissolution of the Company. The Company shall be dissolved, its assets disposed of and its affairs wound up upon the first to occur of the following:

(a) a unanimous determination by the Members that the Company should be dissolved;

(b) a Unanimous Approval by the Board of Directors that the Company should be dissolved;

(d) the occurrence of an unresolved Business Plan deadlock which results in dissolution of the Company in accordance with Section 12.1(c);

(e) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under section 18-802 of the Act; and

(a) If the Company is dissolved and its affairs are to be wound up, the Board shall (1) sell or otherwise liquidate all of the Company's assets as promptly as practicable (except to the extent the Board may determine to distribute any assets to the Members in kind), (2) allocate any Net Income or Net Loss resulting from such sales to the Members' Capital Accounts in accordance with Article X hereof, (3) discharge all liabilities of the Company (other than liabilities to Members), whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof, including all costs relating to the dissolution, winding up, and liquidation and distribution of assets, (4) establish such reserves as may be reasonably necessary to provide for contingent, conditional and unmatured liabilities of the Company (for purposes of determining the Capital Accounts of the Members, the amounts of such reserves shall be deemed to be an expense of the Company), (5) discharge any liabilities of the Company to the Members other than on account of their interests in the Company capital or profits, and (6) distribute the remaining assets as follows:

(y) To the extent of any excess, to each of the Members an amount equal to the sum of:

(1) the positive or negative difference between (A) the product of such Member’s Final Membership Percentage Interest and the aggregate distributions to all Members since the Measurement Date, and (B) the Net

(2) the product of such Member’s Final Membership Percentage Interest and the Liquidation Value of the Company calculated by taking into account the transactions occurring in connection with the Liquidation or Sale of the Company and any unrealized appreciation deemed realized with respect to assets distributed in kind.

Such amount shall be distributed to the Members, either in cash or in kind, as determined by the Board (or, if there is then no Board, by any remaining Directors or, if none, by agreement of Members holding a majority of the Membership Units in the Company), with any assets distributed in kind being valued for this purpose at the Carrying Value as determined pursuant to Section 13.2(b). Any such distributions to the Members in respect of their Capital Accounts shall be made in accordance with the time requirements set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704–1(b)(2)(ii)(b)(2). To the extent that a distribution to a Member would exceed the positive balance of such Member’s Capital Account, the excess shall be treated as a “guaranteed payment” to such Member within the meaning of Section 707 of the Code and the related expense shall be allocated among the other Members in accordance with their Final Membership Percentage Interests. In the event that (i) the computation set forth in Section 13.2(a)(6) yields a negative number for any Class D Member, such Member shall make a contribution to the Company in the amount of such negative number or (ii) any Class D Member’s adjusted tax basis in such Class D Member’s Membership Interest exceeds the Company’s tax basis in all assets distributed to or with respect to such Member, such Class D Member shall make a contribution to the Company in an amount equal to the result of (a) such excess multiplied by (b) the Assumed Tax Rate and divided by (c) one minus the Assumed Tax Rate.

(b) If any assets of the Company are to be distributed in kind, the Carrying Value of such assets as of the date of dissolution shall be adjusted to their fair market value as of the date of distribution as determined by the Board in its reasonable discretion (or, if there is then no Board, by any remaining Directors or, if none, by agreement of Members holding a majority of the Membership Units in the Company). Such assets shall be deemed to have been sold as of the date of dissolution for their Carrying Value (as adjusted), and the Capital Accounts of the Members shall be adjusted to reflect the Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss resulting from such deemed sale.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement other than the last sentence of Section 13.2(a), upon a liquidation within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704–1(b)(2)(ii)(g), if any Member has a negative Capital Account (after giving effect to all contributions, distributions, allocations and other Capital Account adjustments for all taxable years, including the year during which such liquidation occurs), such Member shall have no obligation to make any contribution to the capital of the Company, and the negative balance of such Member's Capital Account shall not be considered a debt owed by such Member to the Company or to any other person for any purpose whatsoever.

(d) Upon completion of the winding up, liquidation and distribution of the assets, the Company shall be deemed terminated.

(e) The Board shall comply with any applicable requirements of applicable law pertaining to the winding up of the Company and the final distribution of its assets.

(a) Upon the dissolution and complete winding up of the Company, a Certificate of Cancellation shall be delivered to the Delaware Secretary of State.

(b) Upon the issuance of the Certificate of Cancellation, the existence of the Company shall cease, except for the purpose of suits, other proceedings and appropriate action as provided in the Act. The Board (or, in the absence of a Board, the remaining Directors) shall have authority to distribute any Company property discovered after dissolution, convey real estate and take such other action as may be necessary on behalf of and in the name of the Company.

13.4. Return of Contribution Non–Recourse to Other Members. Except as provided by law, upon dissolution, each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of its Capital Contribution. If the Company property remaining after the payment or discharge of the debts and liabilities of the Company is insufficient to return the cash or other property contribution of one or more Members, such Member or Members shall have no recourse against any other Member.

14.1. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing or by telecopy (provided that if sent by telecopy, a copy shall also be sent by first class mail or overnight courier service) and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given and received when delivered by hand, against receipt, or, if mailed, three (3) business days after deposit in the mail, with postage prepaid for registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or, in the case of delivery by professional overnight courier service when delivered to the notice address, or, in the case of delivery by telecopy, upon confirmation of receipt, and addressed to the party at its address set forth on Schedule I hereto, or at such other address as the party shall have furnished the other parties in accordance with this Section. The parties will use reasonable efforts to provide a courtesy copy of any notice by facsimile or electronic mail to any party who has provided such a facsimile or electronic mail address, but unless otherwise agreed, failure to send such a courtesy copy will not cause the notice to be ineffective if provided in writing as above.

14.2. Amendments. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement may not be amended, modified or revised, in whole or in part, except by Unanimous Approval of the Board.

14.3. Binding Effect. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their respective personal representatives, heirs,

successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 14.3 shall be construed to permit any attempted assignment or other transfer which would be prohibited or void pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement.

14.4. Title to Company Property. All property and assets owned by the Company, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Company as an entity and no Member individually, shall have any ownership of such property and assets.

14.5. Partition. No Member nor any successor-in-interest to any Member shall have the right while this Agreement remains in effect to have the property of the Company partitioned, or to file a complaint or institute any proceeding at law or in equity to have the property of the Company partitioned, and each Member, on behalf of itself, and its successors, successors-in-title, executors, administrators, representatives, heirs and assigns, hereby waives any such right. It is the intention of the Members that during the term of this Agreement, the rights of the Members and their successors-in-interest, as among themselves, shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement and that the right of any Member or successor-in-interest to assign, Transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of such Member’s interest in the Company shall be subject to the limitations and restrictions of this Agreement.

14.6. Directors and Officers Liability Insurance. The Board of Directors may in its discretion obtain and continue in effect directors and officers liability insurance coverage for Directors and employees of the Company, in such amounts and under such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem prudent.

14.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

14.8. Headings. All headings contained in this Agreement are inserted as a matter of convenience and for ease of reference only and shall not be considered in the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

14.9. Schedules and Annexes. All schedules and annexes hereto, including those hereafter added or amended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, are expressly made a part of this Agreement, as fully as though completely set forth herein, and all references to this Agreement herein or in any of such schedules or annexes shall be deemed to refer to and include all such schedules and annexes.

14.10. Severability. Each provision hereof is intended to be severable. If any term or provision is illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement.

14.11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all Schedules and Annexes hereto, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the matters hereof and supersedes any prior oral and written understandings or agreements.

14.12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles thereof.

14.13. No Waiver. No course of dealing between the Company and any Member, and no delay by the Company in exercising any right, power or remedy, shall operate as a waiver or otherwise prejudice the exercise by the Company of that right, power or remedy against that or any other Member.

qualification will in all respects be ignored, (b) any breach by Member of any covenant contained in Section 5.2 of the Joint Venture Agreement, or (c) any Retained Liability; provided, however, that:

(i) Member shall not have any liability under clause (a) above unless the aggregate of all Losses relating thereto for which Member would, but for this proviso, be liable exceeds $500,000 on a cumulative basis and then only to the extent of any such excess;

(ii) Member shall not have any liability under clause (b) above unless the aggregate of all Losses relating thereto for which Member would, but for this proviso, be liable exceeds $100,000 on a cumulative basis and then only to the extent of any such excess;

(iii) the aggregate liability of Member under clause (a) above shall in no event exceed an amount equal to $10,000,000; and

6.3 Obligation of the Company to Indemnify. The Company shall indemnify and hold Member harmless and, upon Member’s request, defend Member, or its Affiliates, subsidiaries, managers, officers, employees, agents and assigns from and against (a) any Losses arising out of or otherwise in respect of any breach of the Company’s representations and warranties contained herein, provided, that if any such representation or warranty is qualified in any respect by Knowledge, materiality or Material Adverse Effect, for purposes of this paragraph such qualification will in all respects be ignored, (b) any Losses arising out of or otherwise in respect of any Contributed Liability, and (c) any Losses arising out of the use of any Contributed Assets after the date hereof or the operation of the Company’s business after the date hereof.

indemnification under this Article VI, provided, however, that the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party (i) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from its indemnification obligations in this Article VI unless and then only to the extent the Indemnifying Party did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of substantial rights and defenses, and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligations to the Indemnified Party other than the indemnification provisions in this Article VI.

(b) Following delivery of the notice specified in Section 6.4(a), the Indemnifying Party 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 Party (but prior to assuming such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall have acknowledged in writing its indemnification obligation hereunder if such claim is determined adversely to the Indemnified Party). After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense of a claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Article VI for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation. If an Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such an action, (1) no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s 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 Party and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party, and (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Party without its consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). If notice is given to an Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any action and it does not, within 30 days after the Indemnified Party’s notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense thereof (and in connection therewith, acknowledges in writing its indemnification obligation hereunder), the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any determination made in such action or any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party 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 Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such action, but the Indemnifying Party 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).

(a) Losses payable by an Indemnifying Party under this Article VI shall not include Venture Losses.

(b) Except with regard to compensation for claims paid to third parties, Losses payable by an Indemnifying Party under this Article VI shall not include punitive damages.

(c) The amount of indemnifiable Losses incurred by an Indemnified Party under this Article VI, prior to application of applicable indemnification percentages, caps and thresholds, shall be (a) reduced by any insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party with respect to the Loss for which indemnification may be sought, net of retrospective premium adjustments and similar charges, and (b) reduced by any amounts actually recovered from any third parties, by way of indemnification or otherwise, with respect to the Loss for which indemnification may be sought, in each case net of expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in collecting such proceeds or amounts. In the event an insurance or other claim by an Indemnified Party against a third party is pending at the time indemnification is sought from an Indemnifying Party, no reduction shall be made to the amount payable by the Indemnifying Party but, as and when any insurance or third-party proceeds are received by the Indemnified Party, the indemnifiable Losses shall be adjusted to reflect the receipt of such proceeds and the Indemnified Party shall promptly refund to the Indemnifying Party any excess of the indemnification payment theretofore made over the adjusted amount payable. The Company and Member shall each use reasonable commercial efforts to obtain waivers of the insurer’s subrogation rights in each of its policies of insurance insuring matters which could constitute indemnifiable Losses under this Article VI.

(d) The liability of an Indemnifying Party under this Article VI above shall be reduced by the net amount of any Tax benefits actually realized by the Indemnified Party or its members to the extent the claim for which indemnification is sought gives rise to a deductible loss or expense. In the event Tax benefits have not been actually realized (through a refund of or deduction or credit against Taxes payable), or the net Tax benefit cannot finally be determined, at the time indemnification is sought from an Indemnifying Party, no reduction shall be made to the amount payable by the Indemnifying Party but, as and when the Tax benefits are actually realized and the net amount thereof finally determined, the indemnifiable Losses shall be adjusted to reflect the net Tax benefits realized and the Indemnified Party shall promptly refund to the Indemnifying Party any excess of the indemnification payment theretofore made over the adjusted amount payable.

(e) Except as specifically set forth in this Article VI, the Company waives any rights and claims the Company may have against Member, whether at law or equity, relating to the Contributed Assets or the transactions contemplated hereby, other than claims for fraud. The rights and claims waived by the Company include claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising out of or relating to any Environmental Law (whether now or hereinafter in effect), claims for breach of contract, breach of representation or warranty, negligent misrepresentation and all other claims for breach of duty. After the date hereof, Sections 6.2 and 6.3 will, in the absence of fraud, provide the exclusive remedy of the Company or any other member of the Company against Member, or Member against the Company, for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or other agreement (other than those contained in Section 2.4(c) and 3.2) or other claims arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

The parties will use reasonable efforts to provide a courtesy copy of any notice by facsimile or electronic mail to any party who has provided such a facsimile or electronic mail address, but unless otherwise agreed, failure to send such a courtesy copy will not cause the notice to be ineffective if provided in writing as above.

7.3 Successors and Assigns. No assignment of this Agreement or of any rights or obligations hereunder may be made by either party (by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other party and any attempted assignment without the required consent shall be void. This Agreement and the rights, interests, and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

7.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

7.5 Waiver and Other Action. This Agreement may be amended, modified, or supplemented only by a written instrument executed by the party against which enforcement of the amendment, modification, or supplement is sought.

Section and other headings are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

7.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable, and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision were never a part hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance (except to the extent such remaining provisions constitute obligations of another party to this Agreement corresponding to the unenforceable provision); and in lieu of such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision, there shall be added, automatically as part of this Agreement, a provision as similar in its terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable.

7.8 Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

(a) Constellation hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Company the prompt and full discharge by Member of all of Member’s covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities under this Agreement including the due and punctual payment of all amounts which are or may become due and payable by Member hereunder, when and as the same shall become due and payable (collectively, the “Member Obligations”), in accordance with the terms hereof. Constellation acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to all Member Obligations to pay money, such guaranty shall be a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection and shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit of any remedies against Member. If Member shall default in the due and punctual performance of any Member Obligation, including the full and timely payment of any amount due and payable pursuant to any Member Obligation, Constellation will forthwith perform or cause to be performed such Member Obligations and will forthwith make full payment of any amount due with respect thereto at its sole cost and expense.

(v) any other act, omission to act, delay of any kind by any party hereto or any other Person, or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of Constellation hereunder.

(c) Constellation hereby waives any right, whether legal or equitable, statutory or non-statutory, to require Member or the Company to proceed against or take any action against or pursue any remedy with respect to Member, the Company or any other Person or make presentment or demand for performance or give any notice of nonperformance before Member or the Company may enforce its rights hereunder against Constellation.

(d) Constellation’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until the Member Obligations shall have been performed in full. If at any time any performance by any Person of any Member Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned, whether upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Member or otherwise,

Constellation’s obligations hereunder with respect to such Member Obligation shall be reinstated at such time as though such Member Obligation had become due and had not been performed.

Member shall indemnify the Company and hold the Company harmless and, upon the Company’s request, defend the Company, or its Affiliates, subsidiaries, managers, officers, employees, agents and assigns from and against any Losses incurred by the Company based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of (a) any breach by Member of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, provided, that if any such representation or warranty is qualified in any respect by Knowledge, materiality or Material Adverse Effect, for purposes of this paragraph such qualification will in all respects be ignored, (b) any breach by Member of any covenant contained in Section 5.1 of the Joint Venture Agreement, or (c) any Retained Liability; provided, however, that:

(i) Member shall not have any liability under clause (a) above unless the aggregate of all Losses relating thereto for which Member would, but for this proviso, be liable exceeds $1,000,000 on a cumulative basis and then only to the extent of any such excess;

(iii) the aggregate liability of Member under clause (a) above shall in no event exceed an amount equal to $10,000,000; and

(iv) Member shall not have any liability under clause (a) or clause (b) above after the expiration of the Survival Period; but provided further that if, at any time on or prior to the end of the Survival Period, the Company delivers to Member a written notice indicating that the Company has determined, in good faith, that there has been a breach of any

representation or warranty of Member hereunder or of any covenant in Section 5.1 of the Joint Venture Agreement, then the obligation of Member to indemnify and hold harmless the Company with respect to such breach shall survive until any indemnification claim relating to such breach has been fully and finally resolved.

(a) Promptly after the commencement of any action or proceeding against a party having a right to indemnification under this Article VI (an “Indemnified Party”) which could give rise to a claim for indemnification under this Article VI, the Indemnified Party shall give notice to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) if it wishes to assert a claim for indemnification under this Article VI, provided, however, that the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party (i) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from its indemnification obligations in this Article VI unless and then only to the extent the Indemnifying Party did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the Indemnifying Party of substantial rights and defenses, and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligations to the Indemnified Party other than the indemnification provisions in this Article VI.

Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s 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 Party and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party, and (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement thereof effected by the Indemnified Party without its consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Party 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 Party may, by notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such action, but the Indemnifying Party 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).

(a) Losses payable by an Indemnifying Party under this Article VI shall not include Venture Losses.

(b) Except with regard to compensation for claims paid to third parties, Losses payable by an Indemnifying Party under this Article VI shall not include punitive damages.

(d) The liability of an Indemnifying Party under this Article VI above shall be reduced by the net amount of any Tax benefits actually realized by the Indemnified Party or its

members to the extent the claim for which indemnification is sought gives rise to a deductible loss or expense. In the event Tax benefits have not been actually realized (through a refund of or deduction or credit against Taxes payable), or the net Tax benefit cannot finally be determined, at the time indemnification is sought from an Indemnifying Party, no reduction shall be made to the amount payable by the Indemnifying Party but, as and when the Tax benefits are actually realized and the net amount thereof finally determined, the indemnifiable Losses shall be adjusted to reflect the net Tax benefits realized and the Indemnified Party shall promptly refund to the Indemnifying Party any excess of the indemnification payment theretofore made over the adjusted amount payable.

(e) Except as specifically set forth in this Article VI, the Company waives any rights and claims the Company may have against Member, whether at law or equity, relating to the Contributed Assets or the transactions contemplated hereby, other than claims for fraud. The rights and claims waived by the Company include claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising out of or relating to any Environmental Law (whether now or hereinafter in effect), claims for breach of contract, breach of representation or warranty, negligent misrepresentation and all other claims for breach of duty. After the date hereof, Sections 6.2 and 6.3 will, in the absence of fraud, provide the exclusive remedy of the Company or any other member of the Company against Member, or Member against the Company, for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or other agreement (other than those contained in Sections 2.5(c) and 3.2) or other claims arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

7.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

and understandings among the parties with respect to such transactions. Section and other headings are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

7.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable, and this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision were never a part hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance (except to the extent such remaining provisions constitute obligations of another party to this Agreement corresponding to the unenforceable provision); and in lieu of such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision, there shall be added, automatically as part of this Agreement, a provision as similar in its terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable.

7.8 Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

This grape purchase agreement effective this day of , 2004 consists of the following terms and conditions and annexes hereto (“Agreement”)

2) BLOCK: Prior to 15 February each year during the term of this Agreement, Franciscan Vineyards, Inc. (“FV”) will provide Triple Wines LLC (“TW”) its reasonable estimate of the vineyard’s total yield in the upcoming harvest, by block. Then, the parties will agree on the tonnage to be made available to TW, recognizing that the following priorities for grapes from the vineyard shall be observed: (a) First, FV shall have priority over TW for up to 125% of FV’s requirements for grapes for Estancia’s reserve Pinot Noir program, then (b) TW shall have priority of FV for up to 125% of TW’s requirements for grapes for its Chalone Santa Lucia Highlands appelated Pinot Noir program, and, finally (c) FV shall have priority over TW for all remaining grapes. TW and FV will then agree on the blocks to be designated as the source of grapes for TW during the upcoming harvest, on or before 1 March of each year during the term of this Agreement. TW may notify FV of the blocks of the vineyard from which it does not wish to receive grapes, provided that the blocks so identified do not account for more than 25% of the total, estimated tonnage yield of the vineyard. FV will then designate, from the remaining blocks, those from which the grapes sold hereunder will be obtained. Notwithstanding the reasonable, professional, good-faith estimates of FV hereunder, it is understood and agreed by TW that the actual, ultimate yield is based on the vagaries of viticulture, weather, and other matters beyond the control of the parties, so the final tonnage resulting from the designated blocks may be more, or fewer, than is estimated by FV. If, for any reason, FV has grapes in excess of its requirements derived from the blocks that are not designated for TW, FV may offer such grapes to TW on the same terms and conditions as are set forth herein, and vice versa. In the event that the parties agree that TW shall purchase more than 50% of the tons of grapes estimated to be produced in any year, the percentage of excludable blocks hereunder shall be reduced to 15%.

3) TERM: This Agreement is effective as of the date first above written, and shall continue in full force and effect until the completion of deliveries of the grapes from the fifth harvest following the date on which notice of termination is given by either party. By way of illustration, if notice of termination were given on 15 June 2005, the Agreement would terminate upon the completion of the delivery of grapes from the harvest of 2009.

4) PRICE: During the term of this Agreement, the price shall be set annually based on the following formula: the base price, which shall also be the minimum price during the term of this Agreement, is $1,800/ton. In the 2005 harvest, the base price shall be multiplied by a percentage which is the lesser of the percentage change in (i) the weighted average grower returns for Pinot Noir in District Seven for transactions between unrelated parties between the immediately preceding two harvest years, as reported in the most recent Final Grape Crush Report published by the California Department of Food and Agriculture or (ii) the percentage change in the San Francisco Bay Area Consumer Price Index during the immediately preceding two twelve-month periods ending in August of the year with respect to which the calculation is made. Thereafter, the prior year’s price shall become the base price for application of the foregoing formula. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the price shall not increase or decrease in any year by more than 5% when compared to the prior year’s price. During the term hereof, TW may elect, by notice to FV delivered prior to 1 March of the calendar year of the harvest to which such election applies, that it desires to convert this Agreement to an acreage agreement, at a price of $6,300/acre plus all incremental costs for viticultural services specifically requested by TW.

PAYMENT TERMS: The purchase price shall be paid in full on or before December 1^st of the year in which the harvest occurs.

5) FREIGHT: FV shall deliver the grapes to TW’s designated winery at no cost to TW, provided such winery is no more than twenty miles from the vineyard. If it is more than twenty miles, the parties shall agree on a supplemental delivery charge.

6) SPECIFICATIONS: The Specifications for the grapes are set forth at Annex A hereto, and the parties shall agree in good faith to adjustments which may be necessitated by the patterns of the vintage and climate. Incremental costs will be shared as agreed in good faith between the parties.

7) HARVESTING: TW shall determine when the grapes are at their desired maturity and may be harvested, and shall so notify FV which shall, thereafter, harvest the grapes within a reasonable amount of time. TW may reject any grapes not delivered within twelve hours after being harvested.

The grapes will be delivered in clean equipment suitable to protect the quality of the fruit. Bulk tanks and gondolas may not leak and those made of metal must have satisfactory food-grade interior surfaces to ensure that no bare iron will come in contact with the grapes.

9) Arbitration Of Disputes: If there is a dispute between FV and TW, the parties agree to meet in a good faith effort to resolve the disagreement. If there is no resolution, the dispute shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and binding and judgment on said award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The venue of arbitration shall be San Francisco, or in such other California city as the parties may mutually agree. The arbitration process will be completed within 90 days. FV shall not be relieved of its obligation to deliver all grapes covered by this Agreement by reason of any dispute hereunder.

10) Sale of Vineyard: This Agreement will survive any sale of the vineyard and be binding on the successor owner to FV.

11) Warranty of Grape Source and Variety: FV shall not deliver grapes from sources other than from those specifically contracted. FV shall maintain complete and accurate written records with respect to the source of fruit delivered to TW. FV further warrants that all grapes sold to TW shall not be mislabeled, nor shall they, at the time of delivery, constitute an item which could not be introduced into commerce under the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Should FV breach this warranty, TW may refuse to accept delivery of any, or all, non-conforming grapes.

12) Warranty of Exclusive Sale and Encumbrances: FV represents that it has not sold, or contracted to sell, to any third party the grapes herein sold to TW, and that said grapes are now and will be kept free of any and all liens and encumbrances other than those necessary to assure TW’s payment therefor.

13) Force majeure: If the business of either party is interfered with for any reason beyond such party’s control, and such interference prevents the party’s performance of hereunder, such party may suspend the performance of obligations by both parties under this Agreement for the period of time affected thereby with no obligation to deliver, accept, or pay for undelivered grapes.

14) Assignability: Subject to the provisions of paragraph 10, above, this Agreement may not be assigned by FV without the written consent of TW, which shall not be withheld unreasonably.

15) Right of First Refusal: If at any time during the term of this Agreement FV receives a bona fide third party offer (other than from an affiliate of FV) to purchase the vineyard, whether such offer was unsolicited or resulted from efforts by FV to sell the vineyard, before FV can accept such offer FV shall give TW notice of

such offer and shall not enter into an agreement to sell the vineyard (or portion thereof) without first giving TW a right of first refusal, of at least 30 days duration, to purchase the vineyard (or portion thereof) on the same terms as set forth in such third party offer.

This grape purchase agreement effective this day of , 2004 consists of the following terms and conditions and annexes hereto (“Agreement”)

TW may notify FV of the blocks of the vineyard from which it does not wish to receive grapes, provided that the blocks so identified do not account for more than 25% of the total, estimated tonnage yield of the vineyard. FV will then designate, from the remaining blocks, those from which the grapes sold hereunder will be obtained. Notwithstanding the reasonable, professional, good-faith estimates of FV hereunder, it is understood and agreed by TW that the actual, ultimate yield is based on the vagaries of viticulture, weather, and other matters beyond the control of the parties, so the final tonnage resulting from the designated blocks may be more, or fewer, than is estimated by FV. If, for any reason, FV has grapes in excess of its requirements derived from the blocks that are not designated for TW, FV may offer such grapes to TW on the same terms and conditions as are set forth herein, and vice versa. In the event that the parties agree that TW shall purchase more than 50% of the tons of grapes estimated to be produced in any year, the percentage of excludable blocks hereunder shall be reduced to 15%.

4) PRICE: During the term of this Agreement, the price shall be set annually based on the following formula: For Pinot Noir, the base price, which shall also be the minimum price during the term of this Agreement, is $1,400/ton. For Chardonnay, the base price, which shall also be the minimum price during the term of this Agreement, is $1,000/ton.

Thereafter, the prior year’s price shall become the base price for application of the foregoing formula. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the price shall not increase or decrease in any year by more than 5% when compared to the prior year’s price.

PAYMENT TERMS: The purchase price shall be paid in full on or before December 1^st of the year in which the harvest occurs.

Member proposing to Transfer a Membership Interest shall give the Company (i) notice describing the manner and circumstances of the proposed Transfer (copies of which the Company shall furnish to each Member following receipt thereof by the Company) and (ii) if such Transfer is to be made pursuant to an exemption from such registration and if reasonably requested by the Company, a written opinion of counsel, who shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, such opinion to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, to the effect that the proposed Transfer of Membership Interest may be effected without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws.

(a) Any Person wishing to be admitted to the Company as an additional Member, other than by virtue of the permitted Transfer to such Person of a Membership Interest pursuant to Section 10.2 above, may be admitted only with the Unanimous Consent of the Board, which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the Directors and may be made subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Board may require.

(a) If a Change of Control of CBI, HVL or DBR occurs, then the Class A Member in the case of CBI, the Class B Member in the case of HVL, or the Class C Member in the case of DBR (the “Affected Member”) shall promptly (and in no event later than ten Business Days after consummation of the Change of Control) notify the other Members, identifying in reasonable detail the Person or Persons who have assumed control of the Affected Member. The other Members will then have the right, by notice given to the Affected Member no later than forty-five (45) days after receipt of notice of the Change of Control from the Affected Member (or, if no such notice is given, the date they actually discover the Change of Control has occurred) to purchase the entire Membership Interest held by the Affected Member, in either case at the fair market value thereof. If no notice of purchase or sale is given within the forty-five (45) day period specified above, no purchase or sale shall take place and the Affected Member shall continue as a Member of the Company with no modification to its rights or obligations. If both of the other Members choose to purchase the Membership Interest held by the Affected Member, each of the other Members will purchase its pro rata share of such Membership Interest, based upon their respective Membership Units, provided that the other Members may agree between themselves (which agreement will be binding upon the Affected Member) that they will divide the purchase of the Affected Member’s Membership Interest among themselves on a non-pro rata basis or that the Company will purchase the Affected Member’s Membership Interest. If only one of the other Members chooses to purchase the Membership Interest held by the Affected Member, such Member will purchase the entire Affected Member’s Membership Interest.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed among the Affected Member and the other Members, any sale pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be for cash, payable in full at the closing of the sale, and shall be made on an “as is, where is” basis without representations from any party other than customary representations as to title to the Membership Interests being Transferred and due authorization, power and authority for the Transfer. The closing of the Transfer shall take place at the offices of the Company, at a time specified by the purchasing Member which shall be no later than the later of (i) ninety (90) days following delivery of the notice of purchase from the other Members, and (ii) ten (10) days following resolution of the fair market value of the Membership Interests being Transferred in accordance with Section 10.5(c).

(c) The fair market value of any Membership Interest to be sold hereunder will be the amount that would be distributed to the holder of such Membership Interest if the Company’s assets, subject to its liabilities, were sold at an aggregate amount equal to the fair market value of the Company as a going concern in an arms-length sale between a willing buyer and seller (“Going Concern Value”), the Company liquidated and the liquidation proceeds distributed to the Members in accordance with Section 11.2. Unless it is determined by agreement among the Affected Member and the other Members, fair market value of a Membership Interest for purposes of this Section 10.5 will be determined by the following process: No later than thirty (30) days after delivery of the notice of purchase from the other Members, the Affected Member, on the one hand, and the other Member or Members (by agreement between them), as the case may be, on the other hand, will each specify a Going Concern Value of the Company, including with their submission 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 Company’s business. The arbitrator shall conduct a hearing to receive additional information about the basis of and support for the two proposals. The arbitrator will then determine the Going Concern Value of the Company 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 sold will then be determined by the Company’s management based upon the Going Concern Value so established, by application of Section 11.2. If any Member disagrees with the value established by management and that disagreement cannot be resolved between or among the concerned Members, the determination of the fair market value of the Membership Interest or Interests to be sold based upon the established Going Concern Value will be resubmitted to the arbitrator. The timing and procedure before the arbitrator (including the requirement that the arbitrator choose the value of one or the other of the competing proposals) will be the same as that followed for the original establishment of the Going Concern Value.

(a) a unanimous determination by the Members that the Company should be dissolved;

(b) Unanimous Consent by the Board of Directors that the Company should be dissolved;

11.2. Distribution of Assets. The Company’s assets or the proceeds from the sale thereof shall be applied and distributed to the maximum extent permitted by law, in the following order:

(a) first, to the satisfaction (whether by payment or by the making of reasonable provision for payment) of all of the Company’s debts and liabilities to creditors other than the Members; and

(b) the balance, if any, to the Members pro rata in accordance with their respective Membership Units.

Upon completion of the winding up, liquidation and distribution of the assets, the Company shall be deemed terminated.

The Board shall comply with any applicable requirements of applicable law pertaining to the winding up of the Company and the final distribution of its assets.

(a) Upon the dissolution and complete winding up of the Company, a Certificate of Cancellation shall be delivered to the Delaware Secretary of State.

11.4. Return of Contribution Non–Recourse to Other Members. Except as provided by law, upon dissolution, each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of its Capital Contribution. If the Company property remaining after the payment or discharge of the debts and liabilities of the Company is insufficient to return the cash or other property contribution of one or more Members, such Member or Members shall have no recourse against any other Member.

12.1. Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when (a) transmitted by telecopier (and confirmed by return facsimile), or (b) delivered, if sent by Express Mail, Federal Express or other express delivery service, or registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the addressee at the address or telecopier number set forth on Schedule I hereto (or to such other address or telecopier number as a party may specify by notice given to the other party pursuant to this provision).

12.2. Amendments. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement may not be amended, modified or revised, in whole or in part, unless in a writing signed by each of the Class A Members, Class B Members and Class C Members.

12.3. Binding Effect. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their respective personal representatives, heirs, successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 14.3 shall be construed to permit any attempted assignment or other transfer which would be prohibited or void pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement.

12.4. Title to Company Property. All property and assets owned by the Company, whether real or personal, tangible or intangible, shall be deemed to be owned by the Company as an entity and no Member individually, shall have any ownership of such property and assets.

12.5. Partition. No Member nor any successor-in-interest to any Member shall have the right while this Agreement remains in effect to have the property of the Company partitioned, or to file a complaint or institute any proceeding at law or in equity to have the property of the Company partitioned, and each Member, on behalf of itself, and its successors, successors-in-title, executors, administrators, representatives, heirs and assigns, hereby waives any such right. It is the intention of the Members that during the term of this Agreement, the rights of the Members and their successors-in-interest, as among themselves, shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement and that the right of any Member or successor-in-interest to assign, Transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of such Member’s interest in the Company shall be subject to the limitations and restrictions of this Agreement.

12.6. Directors and Officers Liability Insurance. The Board of Directors may in its discretion obtain and continue in effect directors and officers liability insurance coverage for Directors and employees of the Company, in such amounts and under such terms and conditions as the Board shall deem prudent.

12.7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

12.10. Severability. Each provision hereof is intended to be severable. If any term or provision is illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement.

12.11. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all Schedules and Annexes hereto, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the matters hereof and supersedes any prior oral and written understandings or agreements.

12.12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles thereof.

12.13. No Waiver. No course of dealing between the Company and any Member, and no delay by the Company in exercising any right, power or remedy, shall operate as a waiver or otherwise prejudice the exercise by the Company of that right, power or remedy against that or any other Member.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement has been executed as of the date first above written.


FRANCISCAN TRIO SUB, LLC

By:


HUNEEUS VINTNERS LLC

By:


THE CHALONE WINE GROUP, LTD.

By:

This Certificate of Formation of VentureCo, LLC is being executed and filed by the undersigned for the purpose of forming a limited liability company pursuant to the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (6 Del.C. § 18-101, et seq.).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, an authorized person of the Company, has executed this Certificate of Formation as of the day of , 2004.

It is the intention of Venture following the merger that beneficial owners of shares of common stock immediately prior to the effective date of the Merger will be entitled for three months following the Closing Date to enroll at no additional cost as members of a new Founders Club, and the shareholders will receive a one-time wine dividend of $1.00 per share. This Founders Club membership and this one-time wine dividend will not be transferable, and the wines purchased with this dividend cannot be re-sold.

This wine dividend can be used through the Founders Club to purchase wines at a 50% discount on all wine purchases up to an amount equal to $1.00 per share. So if a shareholder had 500 shares on the Closing Date and enrolled in the Founders Club, the shareholder would receive a $500.00 wine dividend that it could use to purchase $1,000.00 of wine at a 50% discount. This Founders Club wine dividend will remain valid for one year from the Closing Date.

In addition to this wine dividend, this Founders Club membership will give members 15 years access to the following benefits:

1) The Annual Founders Celebration. This will be an annual party where the Venture will invite all Founders Club members to one of the Venture’s wineries for a special and exclusive celebration where the Venture will introduce new vintages and new wines to the members. This party will operate in a similar manner to Chalone’s annual shareholders party.

2) VIP Tours. Founders Club members will be able to participate in special VIP tours and tastings with special access at each of the Venture’s wineries. As part of the Founders Club, the Venture will have a Concierge so that members can have one central place to conveniently schedule appointments at all wineries.

3) Founders Club Discount. As was the tradition at Chalone, the Venture will give the Founders Club members special access to selections of its most exclusive wines and allocated bottlings. This will be done in quarterly communications the Venture will send to all Founders Club members. Founders Club members will also receive Founders Club discounted pricing on all these offerings. The special one-time wine dividend can be used in connection with these discounted prices. For example if the price of the wine selected by the Founders Club member was $75 after the standard Founders Club discount, the Founders Club member could use $37.50 of his or her one-time discount to purchase this wine and have to pay only $37.50 in cash for the purchase.

4) Special Allocations. In addition, Founders Club members who purchase at least $500.00 per year (net of the wine dividend) from the Founders Club selections will qualify for special allocations of the Venture’s most limited wines and unique sizes.

The Founders Club will be subject to commercially reasonable rules, restrictions and modifications adopted by the Venture for all Founders Club members.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, TRIPLE WINES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Debtor”), hereby promises to pay to the order of TRIPLE WINES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Holder”), ON DEMAND, the principal sum of Dollars ($ ), together with interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof from the first business day following the date of this Note to the date of repayment in full at a rate equal to 1-1/2% plus the rate from time to time publicly announced by Citibank N.A. at its principal office in New York City as its prime lending rate for domestic commercial loans. All payments shall be made to Holder at , or at such other place as the Holder may from time to time designate. As used herein, a “business day” means any day on which banking institutions are not authorized or obligated by law to close in either New York City or Paris, France.

This Note may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the Debtor. Any prepayment shall be made together with all interest accrued but unpaid through the date of prepayment but without penalty.

If the Debtor shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or a meeting of creditors is convened or a committee of creditors is appointed, or any petition or proceeding for any relief under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of debt, receivership, liquidation or dissolution law or statute now or hereinafter in effect (whether at law or in equity) is filed or commenced by or against the Debtor or any property of the Debtor, or any trustee or receiver is appointed for the Debtor or his property, and such petition or proceeding, if filed or commenced against the Debtor or his property, is not terminated within 5 days, the maturity of the unpaid balance of this Note shall be accelerated and the same, together with all accrued interest, shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand.

The Debtor waives diligence, demand (other than demand for payment of the principal balance hereof pursuant to the first paragraph of this Note), presentment, protest and notice of any kind, and assents to extensions of the time of payment, release, surrender or substitution of security, or forbearance or other indulgence, without notice.

In the event the Holder institutes any action to enforce collection of this Note, the Debtor agrees to pay, in addition to unpaid principal and interest, all the costs and expenses incurred in attempting or effecting collection hereunder, including reasonable attorney’s fees, whether or not suit is instituted.

THE DEBTOR HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT AGAINST THE DEBTOR ON ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE.

This Note shall be governed by the laws of the State of California applicable to agreements made and to be performed in that State.

Title:

THIS License Agreement, effective this day of 200 (“License”), by and between Franciscan Vineyards, Inc., a Delaware corporation having a place of business at 1178 Galleron Road, St. Helena California 94574 (“Licensor”) and Triple Wines, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company having a place of business at 801 Main Street, St. Helena, California 94574 (“Licensee”).

A. Licensor is the owner of the trademark “OAKVILLE ESTATE” (registered in the United States Patent and Trademark Office under registration number 2,106,185) and any other proprietary trade names, trademarks, trademark, or any other protectable rights in and to names and marks comprised of or including “OAKVILLE ESTATE” or phonetically equivalent or confusingly similar to “OAKVILLE ESTATE” (collectively, the “Trademark”).

C. Licensor desires to grant Licensee certain rights to use the Trademark pursuant to the terms and provisions set forth herein.

A. Licensor hereby grants to Licensee the perpetual right and license to use the Trademark in connection with Products (as defined below), which license shall be exclusive, except to the extent set forth on Annex A hereto. Licensee shall, in its use of the Trademark, ensure that the Trademark is only used with wines (“Products”) that are at least consistent with the quality of Products produced by Licensor in its prior use of the Trademark or such other additional quality standards as Licensor may approve hereafter.

A. In consideration of this License, Licensee shall provide to Licensor, at no cost to Licensor, one 9-litre case of each variety of Products bearing the Trademark, from each vintage thereof.

The rights granted to Licensee under this License shall be transferable without Licensor’s prior written consent.

Licensee acknowledges Licensor’s exclusive right, title and interest in and to the Trademark and the goodwill associated therewith, and will not, at any time do, or cause to be done, any act or thing contesting, or in any way impairing, or tending to impair, any part of such right, title, or interest. Licensee acknowledges that all uses of the Trademark pursuant to this License by Licensee shall inure to the benefit of Licensor. Licensor acknowledges the right of Licensee to enforce, as against third parties, its exclusive (subject to Annex A) right to use the Trademark for the Products, and shall assist Licensee, at Licensee’s cost, in any defense or the prosecution of any proceedings necessary to preserve Licensee’s exclusive (subject to Annex A) right to use the Trademark, or any confusingly similar mark in association with the Products, including by being joined as a party in any such proceedings. Licensor shall maintain all registrations of the Trademark. If Licensor fails or declines, for any reason, to maintain the Trademark, Licensee shall have the right, at Licensee’s expense, to take all actions necessary to maintain such registrations, and Licensor hereby appoints Licensee as Licensor’s attorney in fact for such purpose.

Each party shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party, and its successors and assigns, against any and all claims, liabilities, or damages of any nature resulting from or arising out of a breach by the indemnifying party of any of its obligations hereunder. The indemnified party will give the indemnifying party prompt notice of any claim subject to indemnification hereunder, and the indemnified party shall have the right to control the defense of such claim.

The licensed territory for use of the Trademark shall be worldwide, provided that licensee notifies Licensor at least sixty (60) days prior to entering a territory outside the United States of America. Upon notification, Licensor shall use any and all reasonable efforts to determine the availability of the Trademark in said territory, and may, in its own discretion, file an application to register the Trademark in such territory, at Licensee’s cost and expense. If Licensor fails or declines, for any reason, to file or pursue any such application, Licensee shall have the right, at Licensee’s expense, to do so on behalf of Licensor, and Licensor hereby appoints Licensee as Licensor’s attorney-in-fact for such purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensor makes no representation or warranty as to the availability of the Trademark for use in any territory outside the United States of America.

A. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder to any parties shall be deemed given when in writing and delivered by the U.S. Postal Service or by a recognized overnight courier. Delivery shall be completed at the time of delivery shown on the receipt in each case. Delivery shall be made to the following addresses indicated for each party herein or to such other address as such party may, from time to time by written notice designate to the other:

B. Subject to the restriction on assignment, this License shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the personal representatives, successors-in-interest, heirs, and permitted assigns or transfers of the parties hereto.

C. The captions at the beginning of each numbered paragraph in this License are solely for the convenience of the parties, and should not be construed as being part of this License or used as an aid in the interpretation hereof.

D. All questions with respect to the construction of this License and the rights and liabilities of the parties shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. Each party consents to the jurisdiction of, and agrees that any litigation with respect to this License shall be brought only in, any federal court located in the Northern District of California, or in any California state court sitting at San Francisco, California. Each party waives the right to a jury trial in any such litigation.

E. This License shall be construed without regard to the party or parties responsible for the preparation of the same and shall be deemed as prepared jointly by the parties hereto.

Any ambiguity or uncertainty existing herein shall not be interpreted or construed against any party hereto by virtue of who may have drafted such provision.

F. This License may only be amended or modified in writing executed by the party to be charged with such amendment or modification.

G. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this License is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provision or portion of this License shall not be affected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect.

H. The waiver by either party hereof of any breach of or failure to comply with any provision of this License shall not be construed as or constitute a continuing waiver of said breach or default, or waiver of any other breach of or failure to comply with any provision of this License. No waiver of any provision of this License shall be effective unless specifically made in writing and signed by an officer of the waiving party.

I. Licensee and Licensor both hereby acknowledge that they have read this Agreement, understand it, and agree to be bound by the terms, and further agree that it is the complete and explicit agreement between the parties and supersedes all other oral and written proposals, agreements, representations, warranties and communications between Licensee and Licensor relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.

J. This License may be executed in two counterparts which taken together shall constitute one original instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Licensor and Licensee have executed this License at Napa, California as of the date first above written.

Area of Concern		Findings
Aboveground tanks		There are five aboveground storage tanks: (1) 500 gal. Diesel fuel; (1) 1,000 gal. Diesel fuel; (1) 1,000 gasoline and (1) 500 gal. used oil that does not have secondary containment. However, there are new double-wall tanks at the property which apparently are meant to replace the current tanks.

Historical Oil Spills		In 1999, URS observed soil staining near an above-ground fuel storage tank. ESC observed soil staining near the used oil tank

Storm-water		The facility did not have a storm-water permit or storm-water pollution prevention plan

Area of Concern		Findings
Aboveground Tanks:		Oil staining observed adjacent to underground piping connections from the tanks to the irrigation pumps. Concerns are:

250 gal. diesel tank		• Soil Contamination

1,000 gal. diesel tank		• Potential Groundwater contamination

Wastewater Pond		The waste water ponds permit was not made available to ESC. There is the potential that the waste water ponds are discharging to other surface water without a permit

Storm-water		The facility did not have a storm-water permit or storm-water pollution prevention plan

Used Oil		The facility is not managing used oil in accordance with requirements.
