Case:12-10410-swd Doc #:265-1 Filed: 01/17/13 Page 1 of 18 EXECUTION COPY ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT This Asset Purchase Agreement ("Agreement") is made and entered into as of this 16th day of January, 2013 (the "Execution Date"), by and between Boersen Farms, Inc., a Michigan corporation ("Purchaser"), and Stamp Farms, L.L.C., a Michigan limited liability company, Stamp Farms Trucking, L.L.C., a Michigan limited liability company, Stamp Farms Custom AG, L.L.C., a Michigan limited liability company, and Royal Star Farms, L.L.C., a Michigan limited liability company (each a "Seller" and collectively, the "Sellers").

On November 30, 2012, each of the Sellers filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Michigan (the "Bankruptcy Court") and their chapter 11 cases are being jointly administered in Case No. 12-10410 (the "Cases"). Sellers wish to sell to Purchaser substantially all of the assets used in connection with the Business at the price and on the other terms and conditions specified in detail below and Purchaser wishes to so purchase and acquire such assets from Sellers. NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: Transfer of Assets. 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Assets. On the Closing Date (defined below), in consideration of the covenants, representations and obligations of Purchaser hereunder, and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, Sellers shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase from Sellers all of Sellers' right, title and interest as of the Closing Date in and to the following assets, free and clear of liens, claims, lease or other interests and encumbrances whatsoever, of any party other than the estate pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, wherever located (collectively, the "Property"): 1.1.1 Land Leases. Sellers' right, title and interest as lessee under those real property leases described on Exhibit "A" to this Agreement (collectively, the "Real Property Leases"). 1.1.2 Personal Property. All of those items of equipment and tangible personal property, whether owned or leased by Sellers as of the Execution Date, and listed on Exhibit "B" attached to this Agreement, consisting of irrigation equipment listed on Exhibit "B-1" (including all of Sellers' right, title and interest in and to the well pumps, piping, electric service

All supplies, goods, materials, work in process, inventory and stock in trade owned by Sellers and listed on Exhibit "C" attached to this Agreement excluding any such items used or disposed of in the ordinary course of business prior to the Closing (collectively, the "Inventory"). 1.1.4 Intangibles. All intangible assets, if any, owned by Sellers and listed on Exhibit "D" attached to this Agreement (the "Intangibles). 1.1.5 Fertility Records. All soil fertility records and mapping for the property covered by the Real Property Leases. 1.2 Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Property shall not include any of Sellers' right, title and interest in and to the following: (i) all items excluded pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.1 or not otherwise specifically defined as Property in Section 1.1; (ii) all accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents; (iii) all inventory transferred or used by Sellers in the ordinary course of the Business prior to the Closing Date; (iv) all leases, rental agreements, contracts, agreements, licenses or similar arrangements ("Contracts") rejected, terminated or expired prior to the Closing Date; (v) all rights, property or assets listed on Exhibit "E" hereto; (vi) all preference or avoidance claims and actions of Sellers, including, without limitation, any such claims and actions arising under Chapter 5 of the Bankruptcy Code; (vii) all rights under this Agreement and all cash and non-cash consideration payable or deliverable to Sellers pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement; (viii) all insurance proceeds, claims and causes of action; (ix) all security deposits; (x) all corporate books and records relating to Sellers' organization and existence; and (xi) all intangible assets not specifically listed on Exhibit "D." 1.3 Instruments of Transfer. The sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the Property to Purchaser and the assumption of liabilities provided herein by Purchaser shall be made by assignments, bills of sale, and other instruments of assignment, transfer and conveyance provided for in Section 3 and such other instruments as may reasonably be requested by Purchaser or Sellers (collectively, "Transfer Instruments"). None of the Transfer Instruments shall increase in any material way the burdens imposed by this Agreement upon Sellers or Purchaser or the warranties provided by Sellers hereunder.

Other than the Assumed Liabilities, Purchaser is not assuming and shall not be liable for any other liabilities or obligations of Sellers. 2.3 Cure Amounts. On the Closing Date, Purchaser agrees to pay to the applicable contract counterparties (the "Contract Counterparties") all cure amounts (the "Cure Amounts") then due and payable under the Real Property Leases assumed by Purchaser at the Closing which the Bankruptcy Court orders to be paid as a condition to Sellers' assumption and assignment to Purchaser of the Real Property Leases in accordance with Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Alternatively, the parties may mutually agree to an extended Closing Date. Until this Agreement is either terminated or the parties have agreed upon an extended Closing Date, the parties shall diligently continue to work to satisfy all conditions to Closing. 3.3 Sellers' Deliveries to Purchaser at Closing. On the Closing Date, Sellers shall make the following deliveries to Purchaser: 3.3.1 An assignment and assumption agreement, duly executed by Sellers, pursuant to which Sellers assign to Purchaser the Real Property Leases and Purchaser agrees to perform and discharge the Assumed Liabilities and indemnify Sellers in respect thereof (the "Assignment Agreement"). 3.3.2 A bill of sale ("Bill of Sale") and the other Transfer Instruments, duly executed by Sellers pursuant to which Sellers transfer all of the Property other than the Real Property Leases to Purchaser. 3.4 Purchaser's Deliveries to Sellers at Closing.

Case:12-10410-swd Doc #:265-1 Filed: 01/17/13 Page 11 of 18 party Winning Bidder), (b) Sellers and the Winning Bidder (whether Purchaser or a third-party Winning Bidder) shall identify in good faith and exclude from this Agreement any Personal Property, including pivots, well pumps, piping, electric service and/or related equipment that supports operation of such pivots, related exclusively to such unassigned Section 365 Contracts, (c) this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to sell, assign, transfer, convey or deliver any such excluded Personal Property to the Winning Bidder (whether Purchaser or a third-party Winning Bidder), and (d) the Purchase Price shall be reduced by Sellers and Purchaser in an amount equal to the mutually agreed upon value allocated to such excluded Personal Property. Sellers shall use reasonable efforts to obtain entry of the Approval Order and shall provide appropriate notice of the Approval Hearing to all parties with liens, claims, lease or other interests and encumbrances whatsoever, including equipment lessors, in the Property. In addition to the Cure Amounts, Sellers shall use reasonable efforts to cause the requisite notices to the Contract Counterparties to set forth a list of the pivots, well pumps, piping, electric service and related equipment that supports operation of the pivots related to each such Contract Counterparty's Real Estate Lease with a statement as to the Sellers' understanding of the ownership of such assets.

Stamp) pending in the Bankruptcy Court ("Michael's Case"), which order is not stayed as of the Closing Date, whereby the sale of such Contingent Assets to the Winning Bidder (whether Purchaser or a third-party Winning Bidder) is approved.

Purchaser may seek to acquire the real property and improvements located at 70358 Territorial Rd., Decatur, Michigan, including, without limitation, pole buildings, sheds, and grain bins (collectively, the "70358 Territorial Road Assets"). Sellers shall not object to the sale of the 70358 Territorial Road Assets to Purchaser or any third-party Winning Bidder, if applicable, for a purchase price of not less than $825,000.00 so long as Sellers are not liable for any deficiency claim by any secured creditor with respect to such assets; provided, however, that Purchaser acknowledges and understands that (a) certain of 11

Sellers will cooperate with filing any necessary motions to effectuate such sale in the Cases, and will not object to any such sale in Michael's Case, provided that Purchaser shall be responsible for its costs related to seeking such relief. 9.
