Mr. Frank R. Jimenez

Dear Frank,

On behalf of Bunge, I am very happy to confirm our offer for you to join Bunge Limited as General Counsel, Secretary and Managing Director, Government Affairs, based in White Plains, N.Y and reporting directly to Alberto Weisser, the Chief Executive Officer of Bunge Limited.

2. Annual Incentive Program: You will be eligible for consideration for an award under the Company’s Annual Incentive Program. As General Counsel, the “target” of your annual incentive award is 75% of your base salary, with a maximum upward potential of 2.5 times this amount.

The value of this award is established annually by the Compensation Committee of the Board based on a competitive analysis of Bunge’s peer companies and other factors which impact the business. Awards are typically granted in the form of stock options and performance based restricted stock units during the first quarter of each year. In 2013, the grant date fair market value of your award will be approximately $1,000,000.

This agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference to principles of conflict of laws, and may not be amended or modified other than by written agreement executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal

representatives. In this manner, any litigation or other proceeding commenced by either party to this agreement or obligations hereunder shall be commenced in the federal or state courts of New York.
