The pricing structure for JJC shall be as follows:

4.1 Directed Pricing. JJC will provide a "Directed" pricing model to the Distribution Center on or about the 20th of each month, in which contracted products are listed with FOB origin, inbound freight, landed costs and delivered pricing to the stores for said month.

Distributor's request for updates to pricing must be submitted to JJC's Contract Compliance Coordinator no later than the 15^th of the month prior to the month they will take affect.

Distributor agrees to sell all Products as calculated in the "Directed" pricing model, using Distributor's Landed Cost plus "standard mark-up" percent.

It is the Distributors responsibility to review the information for accuracy and to report any discrepancies within three Business Days of receipt of directed pricing. All pricing for that month shall remain fixed with no variability in an effort to ensure consistent cost of goods and invoice accuracy. All JJC's non-contracted items may be reviewed and submitted to JJC for pricing updates on a monthly basis.

In the event of unstable pricing due to the enactment of "act of god clauses", pricing will be adjusted on an "as need basis." JJC and Distributor will work together to determine fair and equitable pricing.

Distributor shall have the right of first refusal to match the delivered cost to JJC Stores for products that are not delivered by Distributor, which shall remain firm for the duration of that specific contract. Any changes to the above pricing formula must have the prior written approval of the JJC's Director of Supply Chain Management.

4.2 Basic Prices. The pricing structure shall be as follows:

Standard Mark-Up. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, Distributor shall sell all Products at Distributor's Landed Cost plus "standard mark-up" (landed cost multiplied by percentage mark-up).

(b) Minimum Order Surcharge. Order's not meeting the minimum order requirement of [****] will be assessed a surcharge of [****] per dollar, for every dollar short of the minimum. These surcharges are not to exceed [****], and will not be applied to emergency orders, or off day orders, that are subject to the unscheduled delivery surcharges.

(c) Missed Delivery Charge. In the event that a store has signed up for 2 or 3 times a week delivery, and the 2^nd or 3^rd delivery is not utilized, the store will be charges [****] for missing a scheduled delivery.

(d) Restocking Fee. There will be a [****] restocking fee applied to any Store that returns items that were ordered and delivered or on truck to be delivered.

(e) Committed Delivery Schedules. Stores must commit to a specified delivery schedule, in which adjustments can be made to their schedule on a system wide basis twice per year. The available committed delivery schedules and periods consist of one (1), two (2), or three (3) day per week delivery schedules fixed for one or more of the following periods: March-October; October-March. Distributor will notify each Store in at least two (2) weeks prior to the start of each period of its option to submit in writing to Distributor its delivery schedule commitment for the subsequent period. If a Store does not submit a delivery commitment notice to Distributor prior to the start of a period, then the delivery schedule from the preceding period will apply. Stores may change their delivery commitment once during each period without charge or other penalty and Distributor may request a change to a Store's delivery commitment, as long as the change does not adversely affect the Store.

4.4 Pricing Information.

(a) Directed Pricing Worksheet. On or before the twentieth (20)^th day of each Month, JJC shall provide the Distributor with "directed pricing" for the up-coming months order guide. The Distributor shall complete the template by inserting expected pricing for the up-coming month and then send the template to JJC's Contract Compliance Coordinator via email.

A COMPLETE VERSION OF THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

(b) Customized Order Guides. Distributor agrees to provide monthly-customized order guides for Stores as requested by JJC. Distributor will deliver to each Store a copy of the order guide by the first day of each Month.

Temecula, California; Sacramento, California; Denver, Colorado; Dallas, Texas

FOB pricing in Arizona to begin no later than January 1, 2006.

FOB pricing in Houston, TX will be authorized at which time store growth allows for sustainable Full Truck Load (FTL) purchasing brackets.

(d) Mark-up Review Trigger. As protection against margin diluting due to average cost of goods dropping, a review of current case cost by market area will be done periodically and a drop greater than [****] will trigger a review to determine if margin needs to be enhanced to allow Distributor to equal the GP dollars afforded at the beginning of this contract.

(Example: Temecula average landed cost is [****] per case. If the product value were to fall below [****] then Product margin would be increased to enable Distributor the gross profit dollars equal to what would have been gained at the [****] value.)

(e) Product "transfer" pricing. Products that are "transferred" between Distributors' own facilities will be at the sole expense of the distributor, unless specifically requested by JJC. If JJC requests inventory to be "transferred", the following fees schedule will apply: (i) Regular transfers between Temecula and Sacramento will be priced at a [****] mark-up (ii) Emergency transfers at the request of JJC or JJC vendors between Temecula and Sacramento will be priced at [****] per pallet unless otherwise mutually negotiated, at time of emergency, at a common carrier competitive rate (iii) Regular transfers from Temecula to Denver or Dallas will be based on a "carrier quote." In the event Distributor exercises the option to utilize its' own trucks, the transfer fee will be based on "full truck load" pricing.

Mark-up fees will not apply to "transfers" made to any non-recognized FOB points. Currently, Houston and Arizona are handled at Distributors' expense.

4.5 Audit Rights. Distributor shall prepare and maintain, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, complete and accurate books of account and records (specifically including, without limitation, the originals or copies of documents supporting entries in the books of account) covering and limited to all transactions arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

right, during regular business hours, for the duration of this Agreement and for two (2) years thereafter, to examine and audit, and make extracts from, such books of account and records and all other documents and material in the possession or under the control of Distributor with respect to the subject matter and the terms of this Agreement.

In the event that JJC accounts payable to the Distributor is not within terms, no discounts or rebates will be issued to JJC.

Distributor shall issue a [****] discount on payments made within fifteen (15) days, provided there are no past due balances due from JJC.

6.2 Delivery Method. Distributor shall deliver Products to the Stores with trucks predominantly dedicated to the Products. Stores unable to accept a Key Drop delivery will have Day Deliveries. Distributor may from time to time utilize common or other delivery services (for example, UPS or Federal Express) to ship Product to the Stores as long as the Delivered Cost is equal to or less than the Delivered Cost then in effect for the Product. Any increase in Delivered Cost as a result of utilizing an alternative delivery system must be approved in writing by JJC Purchasing prior to invoicing.

6.3 Order Procedure. All Orders will be faxed or called into Distributor by the mutually agreed-upon cut-off time (Distributor's cut-off time is Noon). Ordering deadlines may be varied by region, and may be adjusted as necessary with mutual agreement in order to accommodate increased Store ordering activity.

Distributor shall offer a toll-free 800 number for placing Orders and for responding to customer service issues.

sales representative at a managerial level for JJC who will have no involvement with any other retailers that have juice and/or smoothies as their core business. Distributor's sales representative will be available 12 hours a day by a toll-free 800 number pager. Response time will be within two (2) hours Monday through Friday, between 8:00 a.m. and 6 p.m., and within four (4) hours on weekends, after hours, and holidays. Distributor shall provide Jamba Juice Company corporate offices restricted remote access to Distributor computers specifically for the purpose of accessing velocity and Inventory data regarding Store activity.

6.5 Day Deliveries. For Day Deliveries, there will be a two-hour delivery window from the scheduled delivery time. No deliveries to be made between the hours of 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., unless agreed to be store management. Should Distributor fail to deliver within such two-hour window, or deliver less Product than ordered to the Store, Distributor will pay Incremental Product Costs that the Store incurs, plus $10.00, to cover the shortage (Incremental Product Costs will be limited to a maximum usage for a normal 24-hour period). The Distributor's driver will be responsible for bringing the product into the store and placing the cases near their respective storage areas. The driver must check in the order with store personnel and verify invoicing accuracy. The driver must note all discrepancies on the invoice prior to obtaining a team member's signature.

The parties may by mutual written agreement, change the scheduled delivery windows from time to time. Distributor will communicate needed changes on the delivery schedule to the Stores in writing at least one week prior to any change. Any major changes to delivery schedules must be communicated to JJC Manager of Supply Chain and Logistics for review and approval at least two weeks in advance of any proposed change.

All "day drop" deliveries, in which the driver has missed their delivery window, will be subject to the requirements of a "key drop" delivery. The driver will be responsible for putting the product on the shelves. We anticipate that stores routinely have product rotated and prepared for day deliveries.

6.6 Key Drop Deliveries.

(a) Delivery Procedures. For Stores participating in Key Drop Deliveries, Distributor's driver will be responsible for delivering all freezer and chilled Products into the respective walk-ins via dolly, and shall stock Products on the shelves. All dry Products are to be placed together in the storage areas located in the back of each Store. Store management is responsible for preparing walk-in units for deliveries by moving all existing merchandise to the front of the walk-ins. When space is not available or Product has not been properly rotated prior to the delivery, Distributor's driver may place Product on the floor of the walk-in. If Distributor's driver is not able to make a scheduled delivery to a Store due to the fault of a JJC employee (i.e., locks or security codes changed without informing Distributor in advance), JJC will pay Distributor [****], plus any applicable non-scheduled delivery surcharge for returning to the Store to make the delivery.

*** CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED FOR PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT. THE COPY FILED HEREWITH MOUNTS THE INFORMATION SUBJECT TO THE CONFIDENTIALITY REQUEST. OMISSIONS ARE DESIGNATED AS [****].

All "key-drop" deliveries, in which the driver has missed their delivery window, will continue to be subject to the above requirements.

(b) Honor System. Stores participating in Key Drop Deliveries will receive Product on an honor system. Any invoice or delivery discrepancies shall be brought to the attention of Distributor within four hours after the Store opening on the following day, and any credit will be reflected on the invoice for the following regular delivery date.

(c) Access Security. If a driver leaves a Store unlocked after a Key Drop Delivery, leaves keys in the lock or leaves a security system unarmed, Distributor will be charged [****] for each instance. The charge will be waived if the driver is not able to set an alarm due to a system malfunction or other cause beyond the reasonable control of the driver. The driver shall immediately inform Distributor's Customer Service and the Store manager of such problem. The [****] charge will not be waived if the driver fails to timely notify such parties. If a Store experiences theft, burglary, vandalism or other loss as a result of a driver's failure to secure a Store, Distributor will be liable for any resulting losses or damages to person or property.

6.7 Delivery Access. JJC shall ensure that Company Stores shall provide reasonable delivery access for Distributor's drivers. Reasonable delivery access shall include parking for a truck with a minimum twenty-eight (28) foot trailer within one hundred fifty (150) feet of the Store's receiving door and the ability to utilize a standard ice cream cart and/or dolly for making deliveries. Any Store that does not provide the aforementioned access is subject to a fair and reasonable delivery surcharge that is to be negotiated with JJC prior to the Store opening. Distributor shall inspect all new Store locations prior to accepting the Store's opening Order and notify JJC Manager of Supply Chain and Logistics if a delivery surcharge is applicable.

6.8 Off-Day Delivery/Emergency Orders. Off-Day Delivery/Emergency Orders. Stores may request an unscheduled off-day delivery. For Stores other than Isolated Stores (i) all non-scheduled Sunday deliveries will be assessed a [****] surcharge and all non-scheduled deliveries made Monday through Saturday, that can be accommodated on a regularly scheduled route, will result in a [****] surcharge and (ii) all emergency Orders for same day delivery must be placed by 9:00 a.m. and will be subject to a [****] surcharge.

A DM or GM must approve any charges exceeding [****], and approval must be submitted in writing (either via e-mail or fax). If a Distributor is able to UPS or airfreights overnight the necessary items, the [****] surcharge will be waived and the Store will only be charged the related UPS or airfreight fees.

6.9 Resolution of Shortages.

(a) JJC Critical Inventory-Shortages Caused by Distributor. Shortages of JJC Critical Inventory caused by Distributor will be handled in the following manner.

"Extreme Remote Locations" will be remedied within a maximum of forty-eight (48) hours.

(b) All Other Shortages. All other Product shortages will be resolved within 24 hours at the cost of the party responsible for the shortage. Should Distributor fail to meet this commitment, Distributor shall reimburse Incremental Product Costs, plus [****], that the Store incurs to cover the shortage. The Incremental Product Cost will be limited to a maximum usage of a normal 24-hour period.

(c) Expedited Orders. If the Distributor has run out of product at the Distribution facility due to poor inventory management, inadequate safety stocks, etc. it is Jamba's expectation that product will be Expedited (air freight, etc.) to ensure no interruption of service, at the Distributor's expense.

The Distributor will expedite critical items when it is not an error on the part of the Distributor. Jamba will support the Distributor in identifying who the responsible party shall be for costs surrounding redelivery, deliveries may be done by a third party carrier at which time the responsible party will be billed by the Distributor once the third party carrier invoices the Distributor.
