(iii)      The party retaining any Asset or Liability due to the deferral of the transfer of such Asset or the deferral of the assumption of such Liability pursuant to Section 2.1(e)(i) will not be obligated, in connection with the foregoing, to expend any money unless the necessary funds are advanced or agreed to be reimbursed by the party entitled to such Asset or the party intended to assume such Liability.  The party retaining such Asset or Liability will use its reasonable best efforts to notify the party entitled to such Asset or intended to assume such Liability of the need for such expenditure.

14

of any deliberate assumption of Liabilities from a member of the other Group for value subsequent to the Distribution Time), such Party shall promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such Liability to such member of the other Group and such member of the other Group shall assume such Liability for no further consideration than that set forth in this Agreement and such Ancillary Agreement.  Prior to any such assumption, such Liabilities shall be held in accordance with Section 2.1(e)(i).

Section 8.1            Agreement for Exchange of Information.

(a)        Subject to Section 8.1(b):

(i)        for a period of six (6) years following the Distribution Date, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request: (A) Holdings shall afford to any member of the A&B Group and their authorized accountants, counsel and other designated representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to, or, at the A&B Group’s expense, provide copies of, all books, records, Contracts, instruments, data, documents and other information in the possession or under the control of any member of the Matson Group immediately following the Distribution Date that relates to any member of the A&B Group, the A&B Businesses or the employees or former employees of the A&B Businesses and (B) New A&B shall afford to any member of the Matson Group and their authorized accountants, counsel and other designated representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to, or, at the

(ii)       for a period of two (2) years following the Distribution Date, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request: (A) to the extent that information or knowledge with respect to the A&B Businesses as of or prior to the Distribution Time is available through discussions with employees of any member of the Matson Group, Holdings shall make such employees reasonably available to New A&B to provide such information or knowledge and (B) to the extent that information or knowledge relating to the Matson Businesses as of or prior to the Distribution Time is available through discussions with employees of any member of the A&B Group, New A&B shall make such employees reasonably available to Holdings to provide such information or knowledge;

provided, however, that in the event that New A&B or Holdings, as applicable, determine that any such provision of or access to any information in response to a request under this Section 8.1(a) would be commercially detrimental in any material respect, violate any Law or agreement or waive any attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine or other applicable privilege, the Parties shall take all reasonable measures to permit compliance with such request in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence; provided, further, that to the extent specific information- or knowledge-sharing provisions are contained in any of the Ancillary Agreements, such other provisions (and not this Section 8.1(a)) shall govern; provided, further, that the 6-year period in Section 8.1(a)(i) or the 2-year period in Section 8.1(a)(ii), as applicable, shall be extended with respect to requests related to any third party litigation or other dispute filed prior to the end of such period until such litigation or dispute is finally resolved.

(b)        A request for information under Section 8.1(a) may be made: (i) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on the requesting party (including under applicable securities laws) by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such requesting party, (ii) for use in any other judicial, regulatory, administrative or other proceeding or in order to satisfy audit, accounting, claims defense, regulatory filings, litigation or other similar requirements (other than in connection with any action, suit or proceeding in which any member of the Matson Group is adverse to any member of the A&B Group, or vice versa), (iii) for use in compensation, benefit or welfare plan administration or other bona fide business purposes, or (iv) to comply with any obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(c)        Without limiting the generality of Section 8.1(a), until the end of the first full fiscal year following the Distribution Date (and for a reasonable period of time thereafter as required for any party to prepare consolidated financial statements or complete a financial statement audit for the fiscal year during which the Distribution Date occurs), New A&B shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with any requests from any member of the Matson Group pursuant to Section 8.1(a) and Holdings shall use its reasonable best efforts to

27

cooperate with any requests from any member of the A&B Group pursuant to Section 8.1(a), in each case to enable the requesting party to meet its timetable for dissemination of its earnings releases and financial statements and to enable such requesting party’s auditors to timely complete their audit of the annual financial statements and review of the quarterly financial statements.

Section 8.2            Ownership of Information.  Any information owned by any party that is provided to a requesting party pursuant to Section 8.1(a) shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing party.  Unless specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to grant or confer rights of license or otherwise to the requesting party with respect to any such information.

Section 8.3            Compensation for Providing Information.  A Party requesting information pursuant to Section 8.1(a) agrees to reimburse the providing party for the reasonable expenses, if any, of gathering and copying such information, to the extent that such expenses are incurred for the benefit of the requesting party.

Section 8.5            Limitation of Liability.  No party shall have any Liability to the other party (a) if any historical information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Article VIII is found to be inaccurate, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct by the party that provided such information or (b) if any information is destroyed despite using reasonable best efforts to comply with the provisions of Section 8.4.

Section 8.6            Production of Witnesses.  At all times from and after the Distribution Date, upon reasonable request:

(a)        New A&B shall use reasonable best efforts to make available, or cause to be made available, to any member of the Matson Group, the directors, officers, employees and agents of any member of the A&B Group as witnesses to the extent that the same may reasonably be required by the requesting party (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees and agents) in connection with any legal, administrative or other proceeding in which the requesting party may from time to time be involved, except in the case of any action, suit or proceeding in which any member of the A&B Group is adverse to any member of the Matson Group; and

(b)        Holdings shall use reasonable best efforts to make available, or cause to be made available, to any member of the A&B Group, the directors, officers, employees and agents of any member of the Matson Group as witnesses to the extent that the same may reasonably be required by the requesting party (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees and agents) in connection with any legal, administrative or other proceeding in which the requesting party may from time to time be involved, except in the case of any action, suit or proceeding in which any member of the Matson Group is adverse to any member of the A&B Group.

28

Section 8.7            Confidentiality.

(a)        New A&B (on behalf of itself and each other member of its Group) and Holdings (on behalf of itself and each other member of its Group) shall hold, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates to hold, and each of the foregoing shall cause their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants and advisors to hold, in strict confidence, and not to disclose or release or use, for any purpose other than as expressly permitted pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, any and all Confidential Information concerning any member of the other Group without the prior written consent of such member of the other Group; provided, that the Parties may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, such Confidential Information (i) to their respective auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other appropriate consultants and advisors who have a need to know such information for auditing and other non-commercial purposes and who are informed of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to the Parties hereunder and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations, the applicable Party will be responsible, (ii) if the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates are required or compelled to disclose any such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law or stock exchange rule, or (iii) as necessary in order to permit a Party to prepare and disclose its financial statements, or other disclosures required by Law or such applicable stock exchange.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of Confidential Information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Party requested to disclose Confidential Information concerning a member of the other Group, shall promptly notify such member of the other Group of the existence of such request or demand and, to the extent commercially practicable, shall provide such member of the other Group thirty (30) days (or such lesser period as is commercially practicable) to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, which the Parties will cooperate in obtaining.  In the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Party that is required to disclose Confidential Information about a member of the Group shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed and shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that confidential treatment is accorded such information.

(b)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Parties shall be deemed to have satisfied their obligations hereunder with respect to Confidential Information of any member of the other Group if they exercise the same degree of care (but no less than a reasonable degree of care) as they exercise to preserve confidentiality for their own similar Confidential Information.

(c)        Upon the written request of a member of a Group, New A&B or Holdings, as applicable, shall take, or shall cause the applicable members of their Group to take, reasonable steps to promptly (i) deliver to the requesting party all original copies of Confidential Information (whether written or electronic) concerning the requesting party or any member of its Group that is in the possession of the non-requesting party or any member of its Group and (ii) if

29

specifically requested by the requesting party, destroy any copies of such Confidential Information (including any extracts therefrom), unless such delivery or destruction would violate any Law; provided, that the non-requesting party shall not be obligated to destroy Confidential Information that is required by or relates to the business of the non-requesting party or any member of its Group.  Upon the written request of the requesting party, New A&B or Holdings, as applicable, shall cause one of their, or another applicable member of their Group’s, duly authorized officers to certify in writing to the requesting party that the requirements of the preceding sentence have been satisfied in full.

Section 8.8            Privileged Matters.

(a)        Pre-Distribution Services.  The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the Distribution Time have been and will be rendered for the collective benefit of the Parties and their Affiliates, and that each of the Parties and their Affiliates should be deemed to be the client with respect to such pre-Distribution services for the purposes of asserting all privileges that may be asserted under applicable Law.

(b)        Post-Distribution Services.  The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services will be provided following the Distribution Time that will be rendered solely for the benefit of New A&B and its Affiliates or Holdings and its Affiliates, as the case may be.  With respect to such post-Distribution services, the Parties agrees as follows:

(i)        Holdings shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged information that relates solely to the Matson Businesses, whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the control of Holdings or New A&B.  Holdings shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged information that relates solely to the subject matter of any claims constituting Matson Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits or other proceedings initiated by or against any member of the Matson Group, whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the control of Holdings or New A&B; and

(ii)       New A&B shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged information that relates solely to the A&B Businesses, whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the control of Holdings or New A&B.  New A&B shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged information that relates solely to the subject matter of any claims constituting A&B Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any lawsuits or other proceedings initiated by or against any member of the A&B Group, whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the control of Holdings or New A&B.

30

(c)        The Parties agree that they shall have a shared privilege, with equal right to assert or waive, subject to the restrictions in this Section 8.8, with respect to all privileges not allocated pursuant to the terms of Section 8.8(b).  New A&B may not waive, and shall cause each other member of the A&B Group not to waive, any privilege that could be asserted by a member of the Matson Group under any applicable Law, and in which a member of the Matson Group has a shared privilege, without the consent of Holdings, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed or as provided in Section 8.8(d) or Section 8.8(e) below.  Holdings may not waive, and shall cause each other member of the Matson Group not to waive, any privilege that could be asserted by a member of the A&B Group under any applicable Law, and in which a member of the A&B Group has a shared privilege, without the consent of New A&B, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed or as provided in Section 8.8(d) or Section 8.8(e) below.

(d)        In the event of any litigation or dispute between or among New A&B and Holdings, or any members of their respective Groups, the Parties may waive a privilege in which a member of the other Group has a shared privilege, without obtaining the consent from any other party; provided, that such waiver of a shared privilege shall be effective only as to the use of information with respect to the litigation or dispute between the relevant Parties and/or the applicable members of their respective Groups, and shall not operate as a waiver of the shared privilege with respect to third parties.

(e)        If a dispute arises between or among New A&B and Holdings, or any members of their respective Groups, regarding whether a privilege should be waived to protect or advance the interest of a party, each Party agrees that it shall negotiate in good faith, shall endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of such party and shall not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by such party.  Each Party specifically agrees that it will not withhold consent to waiver for any purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of any other member of its Group.

(f)        Upon receipt by either Party, or by any member of its Group, of any subpoena, discovery or other request which requires for the production or disclosure of information which such Party knows is subject to a shared privilege or as to which a member of the other Group has the sole right hereunder to assert or waive a privilege, or if either Party obtains knowledge that any of its or any other member of its Group’s current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests which requires the production or disclosure of such privileged information, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of the request and shall provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the information and to assert any rights it or they may have under this Section 8.8 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of such privileged information.

(g)        The access to information being granted pursuant to Section 8.1, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof, and the transfer of privileged information between and among the Parties and the members of their respective Groups pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or otherwise.

31

Section 8.9            Financial Information Certifications.  In order to enable the principal executive officer or officers, principal financial officer or officers and controller or controllers of each of the Parties to make the certifications required of them under Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, within thirty (30) days following the end of any fiscal quarter during which New A&B was a Subsidiary of Holdings, and within sixty (60) days following the end of any fiscal year during which New A&B was a Subsidiary of Holdings, the other Party shall provide, or cause to be provided by any other applicable member of its Group, a certification statement with respect to testing of internal controls for corporate and shared services processes for such quarter, year or portion thereof to those certifying officers and employees, which certification shall be in substantially the same form as has been provided by officers or employees in certifications delivered prior to the Distribution Date (provided, that such certification shall be made by the relevant Party or any other applicable member of its Group rather than individual officers or employees), or as otherwise agreed upon between the Parties.

Section 9.1            Release of Pre-Distribution Claims.

(a)        Except as provided in Section 9.1(c), effective as of the Distribution Time, New A&B does hereby, for itself and each other member of the A&B Group, release and forever discharge each Matson Indemnitee, from any and all Liabilities whatsoever to any member of the A&B Group, whether at law or in equity (including any right of contribution), whether arising under any Contract, by operation of Law or otherwise, existing or arising from any acts or events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed at or before the Distribution Time, including in connection with the Transactions.

(c)        The Parties expressly understand and acknowledge that it is possible that unknown losses or claims exist or might come to exist or that present losses may have been underestimated in amount, severity, or both.  Accordingly, the Parties are deemed expressly to understand provisions and principles of law such as Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California (as well as any and all provisions, rights and benefits conferred by any law of any state or territory of the United States, or principle of common law, which is similar or comparable to Section 1542), which Section provides: GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT

32

TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.  The Parties are hereby deemed to agree that the provisions of Section 1542 and all similar federal or state laws, rights, rules, or legal principles of California or any other jurisdiction that may be applicable herein, are hereby knowingly and voluntarily waived and relinquished with respect to the releases in Section 9.1(a) and Section 9.1(b).

(d)                       Nothing contained in Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b) shall impair any right of any Person to enforce this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings that are specified in, or contemplated to continue pursuant to, this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b) shall release any Person from:

(ii)                    any Liability that such Person may have with respect to indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement for claims brought by third Persons, which Liability shall be governed by the provisions of this Article IX and, if applicable, the appropriate provisions of the Ancillary Agreements;

(iii)                 any unpaid accounts payable or receivable arising from or relating to the sale, provision, or receipt of goods, payment for goods, property or services purchased, obtained or used in the ordinary course of business by any member of the Matson Group from any member of the A&B Group, or by any member of the A&B Group from any member of the Matson Group; or

(iv)                any Liability the release of which would result in the release of any Person other than an Indemnitee; provided, that the Parties agree not to bring suit, or permit any other member of their respective Group to bring suit, against any Indemnitee with respect to such Liability.

(e)                        New A&B shall not make, and shall not permit any other member of the A&B Group to make, any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or indemnification, against any Matson Indemnitee with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 9.1(a).  Holdings shall not make, and shall not permit any member of the Matson Group to make, any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against any A&B Indemnitee with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 9.1(b).

33

in each case, regardless of when or where the loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening giving rise to the Loss took place, or whether any such loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening is known or unknown, or reported or unreported and regardless of whether such loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening giving rise to the Loss existed prior to, on or after the Distribution Date or relates to, arises out of or results from actions, inactions, events, omissions, conditions, facts or circumstances occurring or existing prior to, on or after the Distribution Date.  As used in this Section 9.2, “Appropriate Member of the A&B Group” means the member or members of the A&B Group, if any, whose acts, conduct or omissions or failures to act caused, gave rise to or resulted in the Loss from and against which indemnity is provided.

in each case, regardless of when or where the loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening giving rise to the Loss took place, or whether any such loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening is known or unknown, or reported or unreported and regardless of whether such loss, claim, accident, occurrence, event or happening giving rise to the Loss existed prior to, on or after the Distribution Date or relates to, arises out of or results from actions, inactions, events, omissions, conditions, facts or circumstances occurring or existing prior to, on or after the Distribution Date.  As used in this Section 9.3, “Appropriate Member of the Matson Group” means the member or members of the Matson Group, if any, whose acts, conduct or omissions or failures to act caused, gave rise to or resulted in the Loss from and against which indemnity is provided.

Section 9.4                                    Procedures for Indemnification.

(a)                       An Indemnitee shall give notice of any matter that such Indemnitee has determined has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (other than a Third-Party Claim which shall be governed by Section 9.4(b)) to any Party that is or may be required pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to make such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly (and in any event within fifteen (15) days) after making such a determination.  Such notice shall state the amount of the Loss claimed, if known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement or the applicable Ancillary Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed by such Indemnitee; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure.

35

(b)                       If a claim or demand is made against an Indemnitee by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a Party (a “Third-Party Claim”) as to which such Indemnitee is or reasonably expects to be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing, and in reasonable detail, of the Third-Party Claim promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days) after receipt by such Indemnitee of written notice of the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide notice of any such Third-Party Claim pursuant to this sentence shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the Indemnifying Party or Parties shall not be liable for any expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in defending such Third-Party Claim during the period in which the Indemnitee failed to give such notice).  Thereafter, the Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days) after the Indemnitee’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim.

(c)                        An Indemnifying Party shall be entitled (but shall not be required) to assume, control the defense of, and settle any Third-Party Claim, at such Indemnifying Party’s own cost and expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, which counsel must be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee, if it gives written notice of its intention to do so (including a statement that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Article IX) to the applicable Indemnitees within thirty (30) days of the receipt of notice from such Indemnitees of the Third-Party Claim (failure of the Indemnifying Party to respond within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed to be an election by the Indemnifying Party not to assume the defense for such Third-Party Claim).  After a notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise or settlement thereof, at its own expense and, in any event, shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses and information in such Indemnitee’s possession or under such Indemnitee’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that such access shall not require the Indemnitee to disclose any information the disclosure of which would, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnitee, result in the loss of any existing privilege with respect to such information or violate any applicable Law.

(d)                       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.4, in the event that (i) an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, (ii) there exists a conflict of interest or potential conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee, (iii) any Third-Party Claim seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against the Indemnitee, (iv) the Indemnitee’s exposure to Liability in connection with such Third-Party Claim is reasonably expected to exceed the Indemnifying Party’s exposure in respect of such Third-Party Claim taking into account the indemnification obligations hereunder, or (v) the party making such Third-Party Claim is a Governmental Authority with regulatory authority over the Indemnitee or any of its material Assets, such Indemnitee shall be entitled to control the defense of such Third-Party Claim, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, with counsel of such Indemnitee’s choosing (such counsel to be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party).  If the Indemnitee is conducting the defense against any such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably

cooperate with the Indemnitee in such defense and make available to the Indemnitee all witnesses and information in such Indemnifying Party’s possession or under such Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the Indemnitee; provided, however, that such access shall not require the Indemnifying Party to disclose any information the disclosure of which would, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnifying Party, result in the loss of any existing privilege with respect to such information or violate any applicable Law.

(e)                        Unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, no Indemnitee may settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).  If an Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim, it shall not be a defense to any obligation to pay any amount in respect of such Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party was not consulted in the defense thereof, that such Indemnifying Party’s views or opinions as to the conduct of such defense were not accepted or adopted, that such Indemnifying Party does not approve of the quality or manner of the defense thereof or that such Third-Party Claim was incurred by reason of a settlement rather than by a judgment or other determination of liability.

(f)                         In the case of a Third-Party Claim, no Indemnifying Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of the Third-Party Claim without the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of the Indemnitee if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other non-monetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against any Indemnitee, does not release the Indemnitee from all liabilities and obligations with respect to such Third-Party Claim or includes an admission of guilt or liability on behalf of the Indemnitee.

(g)                        Absent fraud or intentional misconduct by an Indemnifying Party, the indemnification provisions of this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of an Indemnitee for any monetary or compensatory damages or Losses resulting from any breach of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, and each Indemnitee expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights, claims or remedies such Person may have with respect to the foregoing other than under this Article IX against any Indemnifying Party.

Section 9.5                                    Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds.  The Parties intend that any Loss subject to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Article IX (an “Indemnifiable Loss”) will be net of Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of the Loss.  Accordingly, the amount which an Indemnifying Party is required to pay to any Indemnitee will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in reduction of the related Loss.  If an Indemnitee receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Loss and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds, the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payments received over the amount of the Indemnity Payments that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds recovery had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payments were made.  The Indemnitee shall use and cause its Affiliates to use reasonable best efforts to recover any Insurance Proceeds to which the Indemnitee is entitled with respect to any Indemnifiable Loss.  The existence of a claim by an Indemnitee for insurance or against a third party in respect of any Indemnifiable

37

Loss shall not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained in this Article IX and otherwise determined to be due and owing by an Indemnifying Party; rather, the Indemnifying Party shall make payment in full of such amount so determined to be due and owing by it against a concurrent written assignment by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party of the portion of the claim of the Indemnitee for such insurance or against such third party equal to the amount of such payment.  The Indemnitee shall use and cause its Affiliates to use reasonable best efforts to assist the Indemnifying Party in recovering or to recover on behalf of the Indemnifying Party, any Insurance Proceeds to which the Indemnifying Party is entitled with respect to any Indemnifiable Loss as a result of such assignment.  The Indemnitee shall make available to the Indemnifying Party and its counsel all employees, books and records, communications, documents, items or matters within its knowledge, possession or control that are necessary, appropriate or reasonably deemed relevant by the Indemnifying Party with respect to the recovery of such Insurance Proceeds; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall be deemed to require a Party to make available books and records, communications, documents or items which (i) in such Party’s good faith judgment could result in a waiver of any privilege even if the Parties cooperated to protect such privilege as contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) such Party is not permitted to make available because of any Law or any confidentiality obligation to a third party, in which case such Party shall use reasonable best efforts to seek a waiver of or other relief from such confidentiality restriction. Unless the Indemnifying Party has made payment in full of any Indemnifiable Loss, such Indemnifying Party shall use and cause its Affiliates to use reasonable best efforts to recover any Insurance Proceeds to which it or such Affiliate is entitled with respect to any Indemnifiable Loss.

Section 9.6                                    Indemnification Obligations Net of Taxes.  The Parties intend that any Indemnifiable Loss will be net of Taxes.  Accordingly, the amount which an Indemnifying Party is required to pay to an Indemnitee will be adjusted to reflect any tax benefit to the Indemnitee from the underlying Loss and to reflect any Taxes imposed upon the Indemnitee as a result of the receipt of such payment.  Such an adjustment will first be made at the time that the Indemnity Payment is made and will further be made, as appropriate, to take into account any change in the liability of the Indemnitee for Taxes that occurs in connection with the final resolution of an audit by a taxing authority.  For purposes of this Section 9.6, the value of any tax benefit to the Indemnitee from the underlying Loss shall be an amount equal to the product of (a) the amount of any present or future deduction allowed or allowable to the Indemnitee by the Code, or other applicable Law, as a result of such Loss and (b) the highest statutory rate applicable under Section 11 of the Code, or other applicable Law.  Except with respect to any Indemnity Payment for Losses relating to a breach of the Tax Sharing Agreement, which Indemnity Payments shall be treated in accordance with the Tax Sharing Agreement, and to the extent permitted by Law, the Parties will treat any Indemnity Payment paid pursuant to this Article IX as a capital contribution made by Holdings to New A&B or as a distribution made by New A&B to Holdings, as the case may be, on the date of this Agreement.

Section 9.7                                    Contribution.  If the indemnification provided for in this Article IX is unavailable to an Indemnitee in respect of any Indemnifiable Loss, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, shall contribute to the Losses paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Indemnifiable Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of New A&B and each other member of the A&B Group, on the one hand, and Holdings and each other member of the Matson Group, on the other hand, in connection with the circumstances which resulted in such Indemnifiable Loss.

38

Section 9.8                                    Remedies Cumulative.  The remedies provided in this Article IX shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Article X, shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.

Section 9.9                                    Survival of Indemnities.  The rights and obligations of each of the Parties and their respective Indemnitees under this Article IX shall survive the Distribution Date indefinitely, unless a specific survival or other applicable period is expressly set forth herein, and shall survive the sale or other transfer by any Party or any of its Subsidiaries of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities.

Section 9.10                             Limitation of Liability.  EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED IN ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, REMOTE OR SPECULATIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING IN RESPECT OF LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES), HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

ARTICLE X

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Section 10.1                             Appointed Representative.  Each Party shall appoint a representative who shall be responsible for administering the dispute resolution provisions in Section 10.2 (each, an “Appointed Representative”).  Each Appointed Representative shall have the authority to resolve any Agreement Disputes on behalf of the Party appointing such representative.

Section 10.2                             Negotiation and Dispute Resolution.

(a)                       Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, in the event of a controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, nonperformance, validity, termination or breach of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or otherwise arising out of, or in any way related to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (each, an “Agreement Dispute”), the Appointed Representatives shall negotiate in good faith for a reasonable period of time to settle any such Agreement Dispute.

(b)                        Nothing said or disclosed, nor any document produced, in the course of any negotiations, conferences and discussions in connection with efforts to settle an Agreement Dispute that is not otherwise independently discoverable shall be offered or received as evidence or used for impeachment or for any other purpose, but shall be considered as to have been disclosed for settlement purposes.

39

(c)                        If a satisfactory resolution of any Agreement Dispute is not achieved by the Appointed Representatives within a reasonable period of time, the Parties agree to seek to resolve such Agreement Dispute by mediation administered by Dispute Prevention & Resolution, Inc. (“DPR”) and its mediation rules, and to bear equally the costs of the mediation.  If the Agreement Dispute has not been resolved through mediation within 90 days after the date of service of written notice of such Agreement Dispute, or such longer period as the Parties may mutually agree in writing (the “Mediation Period”), each party will be entitled to refer the dispute to arbitration in accordance with Section 10.3.

Section 10.3                             Arbitration.

(a)                       If the Agreement Dispute has not been resolved for any reason during the Mediation Period, such Agreement Dispute shall be resolved, at the request of either Party, by arbitration administered by the DPR under its Arbitration Rules (the “DPR Rules”), conducted in Honolulu, Hawaii.  There shall be three arbitrators.  Each Party shall appoint one arbitrator.  The two party-appointed arbitrators shall agree on a third arbitrator who will chair the arbitral tribunal.  Any arbitrator not appointed within a reasonable time shall be appointed in accordance with the DPR Rules.  Any controversy concerning whether an Agreement Dispute is an arbitrable Agreement Dispute, whether arbitration has been waived, whether an assignee of this Agreement is bound to arbitrate, or as to the interpretation or enforceability of this Section 10.3 will be determined by the arbitrators.  In resolving any Agreement Dispute, the Parties intend that the arbitrators apply the substantive laws of the State of Hawaii, without regard to any choice of law principles thereof that would mandate the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.  The Parties intend that the provisions to arbitrate set forth herein be valid, enforceable and irrevocable, and any award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and binding on the Parties.  The Parties agree to comply with any award made in any such arbitration proceedings and agree to enforcement of or entry of judgment upon such award, in any court of competent jurisdiction, including any Hawaii State or federal court.  The arbitrators shall be entitled, if appropriate, to award monetary damages and other remedies, subject to the provisions of Section 9.10.  The Parties will use their reasonable best efforts to encourage the arbitrators to resolve any arbitration related to any Agreement Dispute as promptly as practicable.  Except as required by applicable Law, including disclosure or reporting requirements, the arbitrators and the Parties shall maintain the confidentiality of all information, records, reports, or other documents obtained in the course of the arbitration, and of all awards, orders, or other arbitral decisions rendered by the arbitrators.

(b)                       The arbitrators may consolidate arbitration under this Agreement with any arbitration arising under or relating to any of the Ancillary Agreements if the subject of the Agreement Disputes thereunder arise out of or relate essentially to the same set of facts or transactions.  Such consolidated arbitration will be determined by the arbitrators appointed for the arbitration proceeding that was commenced first in time.

(c)                        Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties will continue to provide service and honor all other commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this Article X with respect to all matters not subject to such dispute resolution.

ARTICLE XII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.1                                Further Assurances.  Subject to the limitations or other provisions of this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement, (a) each Party shall, and shall cause the other members of its Group to, use reasonable best efforts (subject to, and in accordance with applicable Law) to take promptly, or cause to be taken promptly, all actions, and to do promptly, or cause to be done promptly, and to assist and cooperate with the other Party in doing, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Transactions and to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, including using reasonable best efforts to obtain satisfaction of the conditions precedent in Article V or in any Ancillary Agreement within its reasonable control and to perform all covenants and agreements herein or in any Ancillary Agreement applicable to such Party or any member of its Group and (b) neither Party will, nor will either Party allow any other member of its Group to, without the prior written consent of the other Party, take any action which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede, interfere with or delay any of the Transactions.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, where the cooperation of third parties, such as insurers or trustees, would be necessary in order for a Party to completely fulfill its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, such Party shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such third parties to provide such cooperation.

Section 12.2                                Payment of Expenses.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, each Party will bear its own expenses (and the expenses of the other members of its Group) in connection with the Transactions.

Section 12.3                                Amendments and Waivers.

(a)                        Subject to Section 11.1, neither this Agreement nor any of the Ancillary Agreements may be amended except by an agreement in writing signed by both Parties.

(b)                       Any term or provision of this Agreement or of any Ancillary Agreement may be waived, or the time for its performance may be extended, by the Party entitled to the benefit thereof and any such waiver shall be validly and sufficiently given for the purposes of this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement if it is in writing signed by an authorized representative of such Party.  No delay or failure in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall affect or operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial

41

exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or remedy.  The rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that either Party would otherwise have.

Section 12.4                                Late Payments.  Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, any amount not paid when due pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (and any amounts billed or otherwise invoiced or demanded in writing and properly payable that are not paid within thirty (30) days of the date of such bill, invoice or other written demand) shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to 12%.

Section 12.5                                Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the Exhibits and Schedules referenced herein and therein and attached hereto or thereto, constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior negotiations, agreements, commitments, writings, courses of dealing and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 12.6                                Survival of Agreements.  Except as otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, all covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement shall survive the Distribution Time and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their applicable terms.

Section 12.7                                Coordination With Tax Sharing Agreement.  Except as specifically provided herein, this Agreement shall not apply to Taxes (which are covered by the Tax Sharing Agreement).  In the case of any conflict between this Agreement and the Tax Sharing Agreement in relation to any matter addressed in the Tax Sharing Agreement, the Tax Sharing Agreement shall prevail.

Section 12.8                                Third Party Beneficiaries.  Except (a) as provided in Article IX relating to Indemnitees and for the release of any Person provided under Section 9.1, (b) as provided in Section 7.1 relating to insured persons, (c) as provided in Section 8.1(a), and (d) as specifically provided in any Ancillary Agreement, this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements are solely for the benefit of the Parties and should not be deemed to confer upon third parties any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements.

Section 12.9                                Notices.  All notices, requests, permissions, waivers and other communications hereunder or under any Ancillary Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) five (5) Business Days following sending by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, (b) when sent, if sent by facsimile, provided, that the facsimile transmission is promptly confirmed and any facsimile transmission received after 5:00 p.m. Hawaii-Aleutian Standard time shall be deemed received at 9:00 a.m. Hawaii-Aleutian time on the following Business Day, (c) when delivered, if delivered personally to the intended recipient, and (d) one (1) Business Day following sending by overnight delivery via a national courier service and, in each case, addressed to a Party at the following address for such Party:

42

Section 12.10                          Counterparts; Electronic Delivery.  This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Execution and delivery of this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any other documents pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be deemed to be, and shall have the same legal effect as, execution by an original signature and delivery in person.

Section 12.11                          Severability.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto or thereto is determined by a nonappealable decision by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either Party.  Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements so as to affect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.  If any sentence in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only as broad as is enforceable.

43

Section 12.12                          Assignability; Binding Effect.  This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that the rights and obligations of each Party under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, whether by operation of law or otherwise, by such Party without the prior written consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and any attempt to assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement without such consent shall be null and void.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Party may assign this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement in connection with a merger transaction in which such Party is not the surviving entity or the sale by such Party of all or substantially all of its assets; provided, that the surviving entity of such merger or the transferee of such assets agrees in writing, reasonably satisfactory to the other Party, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement as if named as a “Party” hereto or thereto.

Section 12.13                          Governing Law.  This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the substantive laws of the State of Hawaii, without regard to any conflicts of law provisions thereof that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.14                          Construction.  This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Parties and no rule of construction or strict interpretation shall be applied against either Party.  The Parties represent that this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements are entered into with full consideration of any and all rights which the Parties may have.  The Parties have relied upon their own knowledge and judgment and upon the advice of the attorneys of their choosing.  The Parties have had access to independent legal advice, have conducted such investigations they and their counsel thought appropriate, and have consulted with such other independent advisors as they and their counsel deemed appropriate regarding this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and their rights and asserted rights in connection therewith.  The Parties are not relying upon any representations or statements made by the other Party, or such other Party’s employees, agents, representatives or attorneys, regarding this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, except to the extent such representations are expressly set forth or incorporated in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.  The Parties are not relying upon a legal duty, if one exists, on the part of the other Party (or such other Party’s employees, agents, representatives or attorneys) to disclose any information in connection with the execution of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or their preparation, it being expressly understood that neither Party shall ever assert any failure to disclose information on the part of the other Party as a ground for challenging this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 12.15                          Performance.  Each Party shall cause to be performed, and hereby guarantees the performance of, all actions, agreements and obligations set forth herein or in any Ancillary Agreement to be performed by any Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Party.

Section 12.16                          Title and Headings.  Titles and headings to Sections and Articles are inserted for the convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

3.               Fees and Expenses.

a.               HR Services.  Holdings shall pay to New A&B a fixed “lump sum” for the HR Services.  The lump sum is calculated by using the time allocated by each New A&B human resources staff member to the scope of services provided and using actual benefit loaded salaries, plus 10%, totaling an annualized rate of $181,801.  New A&B shall invoice Holdings on a monthly basis.

Both Parties agree to review the lump sum charge formula on a quarterly basis (first review at the beginning of October, 2012 for Q3 2012) to ensure the level of the charge reflects actual time spent, and both Parties agree to adjust such lump sum as necessary (retrospectively and prospectively), based on experience.

b.              Other Services.  In addition, there may be assistance provided on other items not specifically included in the HR Services (“Other Services”).  Other Services will be reimbursed based on time spent by New A&B employees on such Services at each such employee’s Adjusted Hourly Rate.  New A&B shall invoice Holdings on a monthly basis for Other Services, with a breakdown of the amount of time spent by the New A&B human resources staff member.

c.               Any expenses related to the HR Services or the Other Services will be reimbursed (without a premium).

b.              The planned provision of the HR Services is based on current facts and circumstances and what New A&B knows about Holdings’ employees, programs, and policies today.  The HR Services do not take into account any changes/modifications such as (but not limited to) new pay programs, designs, benefits, acquisitions, dispositions, collectively bargained changes, and changes to eligible compensation.  Any changes that are implemented should be communicated to New A&B’s Human Resources Department as soon as possible (and in advance if possible).

5.              Third Party Contractors.

a.              For any services provided in conjunction with vendors (such as, but not limited to, Towers Watson, Buck, Trucker Huss, Morgan Lewis, and Mercer), vendor charges will be directly invoiced to Holdings.  Any change in vendor should be communicated to New A&B’s Human Resources Department as soon as possible and although changes to vendors are within Holdings’ discretion, the fee paid by Holdings to New A&B, as described in Item 3 above, will be adjusted to reflect any changes relating to the transition to a new vendor or the implementation of a new process.  If any such third party contractor shall invoice New A&B for services for Holdings’ benefit, New A&B shall invoice Holdings for such amounts.
