2 ABOUT US FRUVE NATURAL FOODS is located in Izmir, Turkey. Founded on a 6 ha. land, we are a state-of-the-art fruit and vegetable processing plant. We oven dry using our proprietary air-drying technology. With gentle heat and simulated winds, we create perfect drying conditions. Our ovens make products with superior taste and ensure consistency in every production batch. All preparation, processing and drying is completed inside an enclosed facility, so there are no risks typically faced with sun-drying; is no contamination of insects, insect eggs, stones or plant foreign materials (eg. leaves) inside our final products. As our facility is constantly refrigerated, there is no risk of disease causing pathogens either. Fruits and vegetables are oven dried in the following formats: Oven Semi Dried IQF -18 C storage Oven Dried +25 C storage We also offer products that are frozen fresh: -18 C storage PRODUCTION STANDARDS Our production and a whole range of products are BRC, IFS, Halal and Kosher certified. We also manufacture according to an array of International Food Codex including the EU's Food Regulations and USA's FDA standards. In order to stay compliant to multiple norms, we have created and follow our own standards, specifications and procedures. Among many other steps, we audit our suppliers' facilities, inspect farms and orchards and check all crops and production materials for compliance to our standards as they arrive to our facility. Before harvest we take samples of crops, and send to 3rd party accredited laboratories to analyse for chemical and pesticide residue. With our custom built machine parcour, our final products are consistent in size and shape; and our proprietary ovens dry with consistency in moisture levels. We never outsource any of the processing steps to an outside facility; we only use the systems and machinery in our plant. Our enclosed system ensures top product quality and hygiene levels. This means the safest and best tasting food for our customers. For frozen products, we use IQF freezing technology using CO (carbon dioxide). When thawed CO freezing ensures superior 2 2 taste compared to alternative less expensive gases. Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) is available and can be provided when requested. Fruve M ns Qual y, a T t's Our Prom e! We make contracts with farmers to procure fresh fruits and vegetables. CONTRACT FARMERS Our agricultural engineers visit farmers to audit their farmland before the planting season. We provide seedlings and initial funds to start farm work, and continue to visit farms throughout the growing and harvest periods. During our visits we provide training and agricultural advice and review their compliance to our strict FRUVE Crop Acceptance Specifications. Our visits ensure zero hormone use and drastic reduction in chemical use at our contract farms. We have 90% year to year retention rate with our contract farmers. Our win-win system is beneficial to all stakeholders: farmers are economically better off, crops we receive are healthier, our final products are better quality, and finally our customers are more pleased with quality and taste. Perhaps best of all, the long-term productivity of the soil is secured; the next generation of farmers continue to have an economic future. 3

3 FOOD SAFETY ASSURANCE SYSTEM Our Quality Assurance team employs HACCP as part of Food Safety Assurance System. We culture cells for analysis at every step of production. We check production inputs, equipment surfaces, workers body and work clothing. Our water purification system is tested for biological and chemical risks. We randomly select sealed product boxes and open them for Microbiological, Chemical and Physical hazards during our regular controls. Our goal is to consistently provide the safest and best tasting foods, coupled with great customer service. FARM TO FORK TRACEABILITY Traceability starts with seeds and seedlings, which are purchased by our own Purchasing Department. All our seeds are free of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) and come with an Orange Certificate which indicates their high quality. As part of our traceability system our Quality Assurance records all inputs and processes, from planting of seeds to metal detection of finished products, every stage of production is recorded. We offer complete Farm to Fork traceability with confidence: we can trace production lots, individual pallets and even a single box. We are able to perform many analyses at our on-site laboratory, some of these are: ph Brix Defect Sorting % Titratable Acid % Salt % Moisture Total Sulphur (SO ) 2 Physical Analysis : ISO 1842 : ISO 2173 Chemical Analysis : ISO 750 : Mohr : ISO 7701, 7702, 7703, SartoriusTS : 8131 Total Viable Count E.

14 ABOUT OUR AGRICULTURAL COMPANIES Mavuk family has been in farming for generations. MÜBAY Seracilik A.S. is engaged in fresh tomato farming, while TEVAZU Gida A.S. is the food manufacturing arm. Finally FRUVE Naturals A.S. is engaged in sales and marketing activities for the products of these two companies. All 3 companies are wholly owned by the Mavuk family. Our Values: To farm and process food with environmental sensibilities To actively engage in social responsibility projects, in order to improve the socio-economic well-being of farmers and local citizens To protect the health of our customers and team members through 100% natural food production To constantly seek improvements in our systems, operations and product line MUBAY GREENHOUSE We are a family company and our roots are firmly planted in tomato farming. Our GLOBAL G.A.P. accredited greenhouse is located just 5 km from our FRUVE Natural Foods plant. At our greenhouse, we grow with complete computer automation. We use grey water collection and recycling systems to mix our fertilizer run off water back into our irrigation water. This system protects surrounding farmlands, nearby rivers and aquifers. As an added advantage, we benefit from reduced production costs. We also use IPM techniques (integrated pest management) during cultivation. Just one aspect is the predatory insects (Nesidiocoris tenuis) which roam freely inside the greenhouse and feed on pests. These pests would otherwise have to be eliminated using chemical pesticides. As a result, our greenhouse team does not get in contact with chemicals, and our tomatoes are healthier for our customers. MUBAY greenhouse produce are sold in local and international markets in fresh produce isle. When requested, we will be happy to oven dry these tomatoes at our plant. Please ask us for a tour of our plants, we will be happy to arrange one for you. 27
