SUPPLEMENT TO
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
BRIDGE LOAN AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT
This Supplement to the Second Amended and Restated Bridge Loan And
Consulting Agreement (" Supplemental Agreement") is entered into on this 29th
day of May, 1998, by and between Pacific Acquisition Group, Inc., a Colorado
corporation ("PAG") and Legacy Brands, Inc., a California corporation
("Legacy"). PAG and Legacy are collectively referred to herein as the "Parties."
Capitol Bay Securities, Inc., a California corporation, ("CBS") is a party with
respect only to certain specified portions hereof.
R E C I T A L S
WHEREAS, pursuant to that Second Amended and Restated Bridge Loan and
Consulting Agreement (the "Agreement"), entered into, inter alia, between Legacy
and PAG on June 12, 1997, certain rights to the issuance of additional shares
were granted by Legacy to PAG, subject to certain circumstances as set forth
therein (the "PAG Contingency"); and
WHEREAS, Legacy is now in the process of filing a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to an
underwritten initial public offering of up to 1,500,000 units, each unit
consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase a share of
common stock, in the aggregate amount of up to $7,500,000 (the "IPO"); and
WHEREAS, the Underwriter and the Parties hereto believe it to be in the
best interests of consummating the IPO to resolve the PAG Contingency prior to
proceeding with the IPO; and
WHEREAS, the Underwriter and Legacy have determined it to be in the
best interests of consummating the IPO to reduce the number of shares of common
stock of Legacy outstanding prior to the IPO which will be accomplished through
a reverse split of the outstanding common stock whereby 1 share of common stock
of Legacy will be issued for each 3.2 shares of common stock outstanding (the
"Reverse Stock Split"), which Reverse Stock Split will become effective at about
the time that the registration statement with respect to the IPO shall have been
filed with the SEC.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

<PAGE> 2
Section 1. Recitals and Restatement.
1.1. The recitals set forth above are true, accurate and correct, and
are fully incorporated herein by this reference.
1.2. The Second Amended and Restated Agreement is hereby amended only
to the extent specifically set forth herein. All other provisions thereof remain
as set forth therein.
1.3 The following sections of the Agreement are restated in their
entirety to read as follows:
Section 2. Intentionally omitted.
Section 3. Compensation; Registration Rights.
3.1 For services rendered by PAG under the Agreement, Legacy agrees to
issue that number of shares of its common stock to PAG or pursuant to its
instructions as set forth herein:
3.1.1 PAG has been issued a total of 190,000 shares of common
stock (59,375 shares upon effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split) in partial
consideration for the services rendered pursuant thereto ("Initial Holdings");
3.1.2 Legacy hereby agrees to issue an additional 120,625
shares of its common stock, after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split, (the
"Additional Shares") to PAG which Additional Shares shall be released to PAG, or
its assignees, at the earlier of: (i) 30 days following the closing of the IPO;
or (ii) 30 days following the termination of the IPO; provided, however,
pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act, neither the Initial Holdings nor the
Additional Shares may be resold prior to the earlier of 91 days following the
closing or termination of the IPO, whichever is earlier.
3.1.3 Such Additional Shares shall be deemed to be validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable. It is understood that approximately 75%
of such Initial Holdings and Additional Shares are being held by PAG for the
account of PAG shareholders (the "Shareholder Shares"). The remaining 25% are
held for the account of PAG or its directors, officers or employees (the
"Company Shares") (the Shareholder Shares and the Company Shares shall sometimes
collectively be referred to as the "PAG Shares"). PAG hereby disclaims
beneficial ownership of the Shareholder Shares.
3.2 Intentionally omitted.

<PAGE> 3
3.3 Piggyback Registration Rights. For the purposes of this Section
3.3, references to PAG or shares held by PAG shall mean and refer to Shareholder
Shares and Company Shares as such terms are defined and used in Section 3.1.3
herein.
3.3.1 Inclusion in Registration Statement If, at any time
during the Term, as defined in Section 5 below, Legacy intends to file a
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (other than
registrations filed on Form S-8 or on Form S-4, or any similar or successor
forms then in effect under the 1933 Act) (collectively referred to as a
"Registration Statement") to register any of its securities pursuant to the 1933
Act, whether or not for its own account (the "Registration"), then Legacy shall
provide written notice to PAG of its intention to do so. (PAG's rights under
this Section 3.3.1 are hereinafter referred to as "Piggyback Registration
Rights.") Upon the written request of PAG, made within ten (10) days of receipt
of such notice, and subject to the provisions set forth herein, Legacy shall
include such PAG Shares in the Registration Statement as set forth in the notice
from PAG. Legacy shall keep such Registration Statement effective for a minimum
of sixty (60) days and shall comply with all federal and state laws or
regulations necessary for PAG to effect a sale or disposition during such
period.
3.3.2 Limitations on Amount of PAG Shares to be Included
Legacy shall be obligated to include the PAG Shares, or any part thereof, in a
Registration Statement, only if the Underwriter, as herein defined, determines,
in its sole discretion, that the inclusion of such PAG Shares and the shares of
any other holder of shares, excluding Legacy (collectively referred to as the
"Non-Legacy Shares"), intended to be included in such Registration Statement
will not have a material adverse affect on a current or proposed offering of
Legacy (the "Public Offering"). To the extent the Underwriter shall determine
not to include some or all of the PAG Shares, such exclusion shall only be on a
pro-rata basis among all of the holders of the Non-Legacy Shares according to
the number of shares sought to be included in the Public Offering. To the extent
that any PAG Shares shall not have been included in such Public Offering, then
the Piggyback Registration Rights shall continue to be in force and effect as to
such portion of the PAG Shares which has not been registered. PAG shall not be
entitled to more than one Piggyback Registration in any one fiscal year of
Legacy. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term "the Underwriter," shall
include the representative or representatives of the Underwriters in any
proposed Public Offering and any other investment banker or placement agent with
which Legacy has or may have a contractual relationship from time to time.
3.3.3 Information and Documents In the event Legacy shall be
required by the provisions of this Section 3.3 to effect the registration of the
PAG Shares, PAG shall timely furnish, in writing, such information as is
requested by Legacy or the Underwriter or their representatives, including their
legal counsel and accountants, for inclusion in the Registration Statement
relating to such Public Offering and such other information and documentation as
Legacy shall reasonably request. In addition, PAG shall execute and deliver such
agreements, certifications and other documents, including, without limitation,
selling shareholder instructions, powers-of-attorney, and custody agreements, as
Legacy
3
<PAGE> 4
or Underwriter may reasonably request. Legacy's obligation to register the PAG
Shares shall be subject to the fulfilment of the duty of PAG to cooperate fully
with Legacy and the Underwriter and their representatives in the preparation of
the Registration Statement covering the PAG Shares and to otherwise not be in
default of any provisions of this Supplemental Agreement or the Agreement.
3.3.4 Expenses All expenses incurred in connection with any
Registration under this Section 3.3.4, including, without limitation, all
registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, and expenses of any audits
incident to or required by any such registration are herein called "Registration
Expenses." All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to any
offer and sale of securities herein are called "Selling Expenses." Legacy will
pay all Registration Expenses attributable to the PAG Shares in connection with
any Registration pursuant to this Section 3.3.4. All Selling Expenses in
connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 3.3.4 shall be borne
by Legacy and PAG, pro rata as the shares registered thereby being sold or
registered by each of them bears to the total number of shares being registered.
PAG shall bear the fees and costs of its own counsel. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 3.3.4, PAG shall pay for all Registration
and Selling Expenses which applicable state securities or other regulatory
agencies (whether governmental or otherwise) require to be paid by persons
selling shares in the Public Offering as a condition to qualification or
registration of the securities being sold or registered.
3.3.5 Prospectus Delivery PAG shall comply with the prospectus
delivery requirements of applicable federal or state securities laws in
connection with any registration. If any prospectus becomes outdated,
inaccurate, or misleading, PAG shall cease using all such prospectuses upon
notice thereof from Legacy and shall return all copies of such prospectuses
under PAG's control to Legacy.
3.3.6 No Registration Required Legacy shall not be required to
effect a registration under this Section 3.3 if PAG would otherwise be able to
sell, in its entirety on the day following the receipt by PAG of the Notice
under Section 3.3.1, without registration, the number of shares sought to be
registered at the time of the registration, pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated by
the Securities and Exchange Commission as then in effect or pursuant to any
other exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act then available
to PAG (collectively referred to as "Rule 144"), so long as the purchaser
thereof shall acquire shares that are not subject to any restriction on resale
as may otherwise be imposed pursuant to Rule 144.
3.3.7 Termination of Rights Legacy's obligations to register
PAG Shares pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall cease and terminate as to the PAG
Shares upon the occurrence of the earlier of the following: (i) the termination
of this Agreement according to its terms; (ii) at any time the PAG Shares become
freely transferable without registration under the 1933 Act, in the opinion of
Legacy's counsel, retained at Legacy's sole cost and

<PAGE> 5
expense, which counsel may rely upon the opinion of PAG's counsel, which counsel
shall be experienced in the matters which are the subject of such counsel's
opinion and retained at PAG's sole cost and expense; or iii) twenty four (24)
months from the effective date of any such Registration Statement (the
"Closing").
3.3.9 The Right of First Refusal
3.3.9.1 Term of Right of First Refusal PAG hereby
grants to CBS a right of first refusal ("First Refusal Right") to acquire any
PAG Shares applicable to any Transfer transaction entered into by PAG for a
period commencing on the Closing and continuing for a period ending on the
earlier of: (i) twenty four (24) months from the Closing; or (ii) such time as
all of the PAG Holdings shall otherwise have been disposed of in compliance with
the limitations and restrictions contained in this Agreement.
3.3.9.2 Time for Notice and Exercise PAG shall
provide notice, in writing, to CBS or its designed nominee, with a copy to
Legacy at such time as he wishes to consummate a Transfer with a bona fide
purchaser for value (as such terms are used in the California Commercial Code),
which party is unrelated and unaffiliated (as such terms are used in Section 16
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the regulations
promulgated thereunder) with or to PAG (the "Transfer Notice"). In the event
such Transfer Notice shall set forth all of the terms and conditions of the
proposed Transfer, including, but not limited to, the name and address(es) of
the proposed Transferee, the consideration to be provided, and the time when the
Transfer will be completed. Any documents relating to such Transfer shall also
be provided as a part of the Transfer Notice. The Transfer Notice shall be
deemed to have been delivered until such time as all constituent documents and
required information have been provided. CBS or its designated nominee shall
have a period of five (5) business days from the date that a complete Transfer
Notice shall have been provided ("Acceptance Period") in order to
5
<PAGE> 6
accept such proposed Transfer by providing to PAG, notice of acceptance, in
writing ("Acceptance Notice"). Such Acceptance Notice shall constitute an
irrevocable acceptance of the Transfer to be completed by CBS on the terms and
conditions set forth in the Transfer Notice. In the event that CBS shall not
have delivered its Acceptance Notice to PAG within the Acceptance Period, PAG
may complete the Transfer. In the event that PAG shall fail to complete the
Transfer on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Transfer Notice
for any reason, then the Transfer shall be deemed to have been terminated and
the First Refusal Right with respect to such PAG Shares shall be deemed
reinstated and in full force and effect.
3.3.9.2.1 In the event that the proposed Transfer
shall be a transaction pursuant to Rule 144, (Rule 144 Transaction") the notice
required to be filed and delivered pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to be the
Transfer Notice.
3.3.9.2.2 In the event that the proposed Transfer
shall be in the form of a transaction whereby the PAG Shares shall be pledged,
hypothecated or in any other manner subject to or held as security for the
performance of the obligations of PAG, the secured party in such transaction
shall be notified of the First Refusal Right provided herein and such secured
party shall be subject to the provisions thereof including, but not limited to
the obligation to provide a Transfer Notice prior to any disposition of any PAG
Shares in satisfaction of any obligation secured thereby.
Section 4. Intentionally omitted.

specifically set forth herein, all provisions of the Agreement have expired and
all provisions thereof have been fully satisfied according to their terms. The
execution of this Supplemental Agreement shall constitute a full accord and
satisfaction with respect to the provisions of the Agreement which are not set

term shall continue for a period of twenty four (24) months from the earlier of:
(i) the date of the Closing; or (ii) the date upon which the Underwriter and
Legacy shall agree to terminate the IPO (the "Term"). This Supplemental
Agreement shall also constitute a mutual general release with respect to the

Agreement. Except with respect to the performance of the obligations set forth
