<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On March&nbsp;24, 2011, the Board of Directors of Calavo Growers, Inc. amended the Bylaws of Calavo
Growers, Inc. by adding the following Section&nbsp;5.10:
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Section&nbsp;5.10 Lost, Stolen, Destroyed, or Mutilated Certificates</B>. If the holder of any shares
of the Corporation&#146;s stock alleges that the certificate evidencing such shares has been lost,
stolen, destroyed, or mutilated, the Corporation may issue to the holder a new certificate for such
shares upon the surrender of the mutilated certificate or, in the case of the loss, theft, or
destruction of the certificate, upon satisfactory proof of such loss, theft, or destruction,
including an affidavit from the holder attesting to such loss, theft, or destruction of the
certificate, and upon such other terms as the Board of Directors may specify in its sole
discretion. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, condition the issuance of a
replacement certificate upon the holder&#146;s delivery of (a)&nbsp;a satisfactory bond, in such sum and with
such surety as the Board of Directors may specify, to protect the Corporation and its transfer
agent against any claim that may be made (and liabilities and expenses that may be incurred) on
account of the alleged loss, theft, or destruction of the certificate or the issuance of the
replacement certificate and/or (b)&nbsp;a satisfactory indemnification agreement executed by the holder
and indemnifying the Corporation and/or its transfer agent against any claim that may be made (and
liabilities and expenses that may be incurred) on account of the alleged loss, theft, or
destruction of the certificate or the issuance of the replacement certificate. A replacement
certificate may be issued without requiring a surety bond or an indemnification agreement when, in
the sole judgment of the Board of Directors, it is appropriate to do so.
