the Closing Date:
4.1.1. The net recovery in the event that ABSA collects amounts owing
from accounts receivables that have been discounted in the audited, December
31, 1996 Financial Statements, and those that have been provided for in the
financial statements of DNAP, as listed on Annex J;

Adjustment Price = --------------------------------------------------------------------
5
The amounts referred to in the above paragraphs which may be paid among the

accordance with Section 3, shall be calculated based on the corresponding,
fiscal-year, audited financial statements in accordance with U.S. G.A.A.P.,
as if on the respective date DNAP and the Shareholders continued being
shareholders of ABSA in the proportion specified above, that is, the impact
that the above amounts will have on the financial statements, along with the
participation that such shareholders will have in the net result of
operations, taking into account among other things, expenses, costs, legal
fees involved in recovering the accounts receivables, whether or not it is
successful, and shall be distributed once such financial statements have been
approved by the respective Ordinary General Shareholders' Meeting of ABSA, in
accordance with Article 181 of the General Corporation Law. Accordingly: (i)
when there exists a balance in favor of the Shareholders, the amount to be
paid shall be the equivalent of that which would have corresponded to them
out of the net distributable profits of ABSA for having maintained their
stockholding participation in ABSA in the above-mentioned proportion; and
(ii) when the net amount of such adjustments results in a negative balance,
such amount shall be paid by the Shareholders or deducted by ABSA from the
final reimbursement payment mentioned in
10
Section 3.2 above (or if insufficient, from the penultimate payment owed, and
so on), and should the amount owed still be outstanding, DNAP shall have the
right to deduct or offset it from any amount it owes the Guarantors, with the
understanding that the outstanding amounts of the respective promissory note
and/or the payments that DNAP is required to make to the Guarantors shall be
adjusted as of the date when the respective financial statements are duly
approved. In the event that the Shareholders do not agree with the amount
determined, the parties involved in the resolution of such disputes shall
submit to the procedure provided for in Annex N, and by their signing of this
Agreement, the Shareholders, ABSA and DNAP expressly waive any other
proceeding to which they may have a right.
SECTION 5. The payment of the amounts contemplated by this Agreement in
favor of the Shareholders is conditioned on the following, which must be
performed on or prior to October 31, 1997, with the understanding that ABSA
shall have the right to waive the performance of any of the conditions, with
the exception of the conditions found in paragraphs 5.2, 5.3 and 5.6:

SECTION 12. All notices made by the parties with respect to this Agreement

THE SHAREHOLDERS ABSA DNAP
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx 0000-0 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, X.X. de C.V. DNAP HOLDING CORPORATION
Colonia Los Alamos Carretera a El Dorado, Km. 9 6701 San Pablo Avenue

Notices shall be deemed to have legal effect as of the day they are delivered
to the respective party.
SECTION 13. Independent of the provisions of Section 4 of this Agreement,
the Shareholders warrant that they have good title to the Shares and agree to
respond and remedy the title in the event a third party claims a greater
right, and therefore, in accordance with this Agreement and applicable law,
the Shareholders agree jointly and severally, and without limitation, to
13
hold ABSA and DNAP harmless from all liability, limitation of ownership,
contingency of any kind, whether of a civil, commercial, tax, criminal,
agrarian, labor, or administrative nature, including from those liabilities
that originate by virtue of the exercise of their right of withdrawal, from
the resolutions derived from such right that are adopted by the Extraordinary
General Meeting and from the subscription and execution of this Agreement, as
well as from all acts taken and events that occur prior to the Closing Date,
which in some manner cause any type of damage or loss of income to ABSA
and/or DNAP and which has not been expressly disclosed in this Agreement or
in the Annexes, or that has been partially, erroneously or falsely disclosed.
With respect to the real property listed on Annex B and notwithstanding that
the Shareholders have disclosed that some of the real property is subject to
various types of agrarian proceedings and legal actions, the Shareholders
state their obligation, such that each and every one of them complies
completely and to the entire satisfaction of ABSA and DNAP, no later than 60
days prior to the date that ABSA is required to make the final payment
referred to in Section 3.2 above (the "Deadline") with each and every one of
the representations set forth in Representation 1.7, which is incorporated by
this reference, and for which they shall be obligated to indemnify ABSA
and/or DNAP for any and all damage and loss of anticipated income that they
cause ABSA and/or DNAP to suffer in the event that ABSA is legally and
permanently divested by court order of any of the real property listed on
Annex B or does not comply with the above-mentioned representations in the
judgment of ABSA and DNAP, and the Shareholders at their sole cost and
expense shall take all legal steps and conduct all legal actions and
proceedings necessary to bring the real property into compliance with the
representations set forth in Representation 1.7, and should ABSA and/or DNAP
require it, the Shareholders shall grant to them the powers necessary for
them to appear in the respective legal actions and proceedings. Similarly
and once any of such real property is found encumbered at the moment of its
contribution to ABSA, the Shareholders ratify and recognize that ABSA, in
exercise of its lawful rights, may file any and all legal actions it deems
pertinent to safeguard the rights granted to it by applicable law. It should
be pointed out that the loss of anticipated income referred to in this
paragraph and the following paragraph, separate from the payment of all
applicable damages, shall be deemed to be the equivalent of 10 percent of the
sale of the immediately preceding agricultural season that corresponds to the
respective real property.
The procedure that shall be followed to carry out the adjustments to the
reimbursements made to the Shareholders, or for the payment of damages and
loss of anticipated income owed to ABSA and/or DNAP, is set forth on Annex N,
with the exception that, if on the Deadline, the Shareholders become liable
for not having resolved in a satisfactory and permanent manner the legal
status of the real property described in Annex B in accordance with the
above-cited Representation 1.7, and ABSA and DNAP decide that it is in their
best interest to relieve the Shareholders of such obligation in a writing
duly signed by their properly empowered legal representatives, the
Shareholders may elect to continue to carry out the legal actions necessary
to cure the breach, in which case they shall obtain a bond from a bonding
company approved by ABSA, in the applicable amount and on terms and
conditions as instructed, for an additional period of two years, after which
the guaranteed amount, or the applicable amounts
14
owed, shall be paid. The above is without prejudice to the payment by the
Shareholders to ABSA and/or DNAP of the damages and loss of anticipated
income owed prior to the Deadline, in accordance with Annex N.
Accordingly, if in accordance with the preceding paragraph, the Shareholders
elect to cure the breach and the Shareholders fail to so cure the breach in
accordance with the provisions set forth above within the above-mentioned,
additional two-year period, ABSA and DNAP shall then have the option of
relieving the Shareholders of such obligation, in a writing signed by their
duly empowered legal representatives, and therefore shall become entitled to
the bond granted to them, or instead they may elect to notify the
Shareholders of their decision to transfer to the Shareholders, without any
liability whatsoever, title to the respective real property or properties,
along with the resulting reimbursement. In such an event, the Shareholders
or the person or persons that they designate, shall be obligated to acquire
from ABSA the respective real property or properties through the payment of a
single, lump sum amount, which shall be equal to the market value of such
property on such date and which shall be determined by an independent
appraiser, designated by agreement of the parties, with the understanding
that if the parties cannot agree on an independent appraiser, then the
independent appraiser will be designated by the independent appraisers that
each party appoints, and the valuation of the independent appraiser shall be
definitive and unappealable for the parties. All expenses and fees incurred
in such transaction, including those related to the appraisers appointed,
shall be paid within 45 days of the date when the appraiser determines them,
and which shall be paid in equal parts by the parties, with any taxes paid by
the party who legally accrues them.
For their part, Messrs. Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx
Xxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, in their capacity as
Guarantors in the execution of this Agreement, agree to guarantee jointly and
severally, and without limitation, the performance of each and every one of
the obligations of the Shareholders in accordance with this Agreement and its
respective annexes, especially the performance of those obligations related
to those that the Guarantors have assumed or ratified pursuant to the
provisions of this Section, and for which they express their agreement such
that any amount owed by the Shareholders to DNAP and/or ABSA which is not
paid off in a timely manner or in the correct manner, shall be deducted from
any amount due the Guarantors by DNAP and/or ABSA under any other legal
instrument, whether executed within Mexico or abroad; the foregoing is
without prejudice to ABSA's express right to deduct such amounts from any
payment that, in accordance with Sections 2, 3 and 4, is required to be made
to the Shareholders, and is without prejudice to the exercise of all other
rights that DNAP and/or ABSA may exercise against the Shareholders and/or the
Guarantors.
SECTION 14. The parties agree to have this Agreement certified by a notary
public chosen by ABSA within 15 days following its execution, with the
understanding that the expense related to such certification shall be borne
by ABSA.
SECTION 15. The parties agree that the agreements adopted by the
Extraordinary General Meeting and by this Agreement constitute the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to
15
the exercise of the right of withdrawal on the part of the Shareholders in
relation to the Shares, and therefore, any agreement or communication made
prior to and not contemplated in the minutes of the Extraordinary General
Meeting and in this Agreement, are void and without force or effect.
Similarly, any modification of this Agreement shall be made in a writing
signed by the parties.
SECTION 16. The Shareholders shall not assign any of their rights or
obligations hereunder, whether in whole or in part, without the written
consent of ABSA and DNAP.
SECTION 17. The parties agree that the headings contained in the index are
for convenience only, and therefore the contents of the Sections shall
control over any discrepancy between the Sections and the headings.
SECTION 18. With respect to any dispute that arises out of the
interpretation, execution, performance or breach of this Agreement, with the
exception of those special proceedings that the parties have agreed to for
the resolution of certain disputes specifically provided for herein, and
which shall be exhausted first, the parties expressly submit to the laws of
the United Mexican States and the competent courts in the city of Monterrey,
N.L., and waive any other jurisdiction that they may be entitled to due to
their present or future domiciles.
The parties, being aware of the content and legal effect of this Agreement,
signed this Agreement in triplicate in the presence of two witnesses of legal
age in the City of Monterrey, N.L., on the 29th day of August, 1997.
