                                    GUARANTY

            This Guaranty (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in
accordance with the terms hereof and in effect from time to time, this
"Guaranty") is made as of the 20th day of December, 2006 by Bunge Limited, a
company incorporated under the laws of Bermuda (together with any successors or
assigns permitted hereunder, "BL" or "Guarantor") to HSBC Bank plc ("HSBC"), in
its capacity as the agent (together with its successors and assigns, the
"Agent") under the U.S.$600,000,000 Facility Agreement, dated December 20, 2006
(as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance
with the terms thereof, the "Facility Agreement"), among Bunge Finance Europe
B.V., a company incorporated under the laws of The Netherlands ("BFE"), the
Agent, BNP Paribas and HSBC Bank plc, as Mandated Lead Arrangers (collectively,
the "Arrangers"), and the financial institutions from time to time party thereto
(each a "Lender" and collectively, the "Lenders"), for the benefit of the
Lenders.

                                   WITNESSETH:

            WHEREAS, pursuant to the Facility Agreement the Lenders have agreed
to make revolving loans (the "Loans") to BFE from time to time;

            WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition
precedent to the effectiveness of the Facility Agreement;

            NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:

            Section 1. Definitions. For all purposes of this Guaranty, except as
otherwise expressly provided in Annex A hereto or unless the context otherwise
requires, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to such
terms in the Facility Agreement.

            Section 2. Guaranty. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Guaranty, the Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees
(collectively, the "Guaranty Obligations") (a) the prompt and punctual payment
of all amounts due and owing (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration,
or otherwise) in respect of Loans made by the Lenders to BFE under the Facility
Agreement and the other Finance Documents and (b) all fees, expenses and
indemnifications of the Lenders and the Agent owed by BFE under the Facility
Agreement and the other Finance Documents, in any case described in (a) or (b)
above whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due,
or now existing or hereafter incurred. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment
and not of collection. All payments by the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall
be made in United States dollars, and (i) with respect to Loans, shall be made
to the Agent for disbursement pro rata to the Lenders in accordance with the
proportion that each Lender's respective Commitment bears to the Total
Commitments (each such proportion constituting the respective Lender's
"Aggregate Exposure Percentage"), (ii) with respect to fees, expenses and
indemnifications owed to the Lenders, shall be made to the Agent for
disbursement pro rata to the Lenders in accordance with their respective
Aggregate Exposure Percentages and


<PAGE>


(iii) with respect to fees, expenses and indemnifications owed to the Agent,
shall be made to the Agent. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect
until the Guaranty Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are
terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto BFE may be free
from any payment obligations under the Finance Documents.

            Section 3. Guaranty Absolute. The Guarantor guarantees that the
Guaranty Obligations will be paid, regardless of any applicable law, regulation
or order now or hereinafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such
terms or the rights of the Agent or any Lender with respect thereto. The
liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute and
unconditional irrespective of:

                   (a) Any lack of validity or enforceability of or defect or
         deficiency in the Facility Agreement, any Transaction Document or other
         Finance Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in
         connection with or pursuant thereto;

                  (b) Any change in the time, manner, terms or place of payment
         of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranty Obligations, or
         any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the
         Facility Agreement, any Transaction Document or other Finance Document
         or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto or executed in
         connection therewith or pursuant thereto;

                  (c) Any sale, exchange or non-perfection of any property
         standing as security for the liabilities hereby guaranteed or any
         liabilities incurred directly or indirectly hereunder or any setoff
         against any of said liabilities, or any release or amendment or waiver
         of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of
         the Guaranty Obligations;

                  (d) The failure of the Agent or a Lender to assert any claim
         or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against BFE or any other
         Person hereunder or under the Facility Agreement or any Transaction
         Document or other Finance Document;

                  (e) Any failure by BFE in the performance of any obligation
         with respect to the Facility Agreement or any other Finance Document;

                  (f) Any bankruptcy of BFE;

                  (g) Any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
         defense available to, or a discharge of, the Guarantor, BFE or any
          other Person (including any other guarantor) that is a party to any
         document or instrument executed in respect of the Guaranty Obligations;
         or

                  (h) Any limitation of BFE's obligations pursuant to subsection
         20(b) of the Facility Agreement.


                                       2

<PAGE>

            The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be
affected by the amount of credit extended to BFE, any repayment by BFE to the
Agent or the Lenders (in each case, other than the full and final payment of all
of the Guaranty Obligations), the allocation by the Agent or the Lenders of any
repayment, any compromise or discharge of the Guaranty Obligations, any
application, release or substitution of collateral or other security therefor,
the release of any guarantor, surety or other person obligated in connection
with any document or instrument executed in respect of the Guaranty Obligations,
or any further advances to BFE.

            Section 4. Waiver. The Guarantor hereby waives (a) promptness,
diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest
and dishonor, notice of default, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of
acceleration and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranty
Obligations and this Guaranty, and (b) any requirement that the Agent or the
Lenders protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien on any
property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against BFE or
any other Person or entity or any collateral or that BFE or any other Person or
entity be joined in any action hereunder. All dealings between BFE or the
Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand,
shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in
reliance upon this Guaranty. Should the Agent seek to enforce the obligations of
the Guarantor hereunder by action in any court, the Guarantor waives any
necessity, substantive or procedural, that a judgment previously be rendered
against BFE or any other Person, or that any action be brought against BFE or
any other Person, or that BFE or any other Person should be joined in such
cause. Such waiver shall be without prejudice to the Agent at its option to
proceed against BFE or any other Person, whether by separate action or by
joinder. The Guarantor further expressly waives each and every right to which it
may be entitled by virtue of the suretyship law of the State of New York or any
other applicable jurisdiction.

            Section 5. Several Obligations. The obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder are separate and apart from BFE or any other Person (other than the
Guarantor), and are primary obligations concerning which the Guarantor is the
principal obligor. The Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall not be
discharged except by payment in full of the Guaranty Obligations, termination of
the Commitments and complete performance of the obligations of the Guarantor
hereunder. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected in
any way by the release or discharge of BFE from the performance of any of the
Guaranty Obligations, whether occurring by reason of law or any other cause,
whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.

            Section 6. Subrogation Rights. If any amount shall be paid to the
Guarantor on account of subrogation rights at any time when all the Guaranty
Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust
for the benefit of the Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be
applied to the Guaranty Obligations as specified in the Finance Documents. If
(a) the Guarantor makes a payment to the Agent of all or any part of the
Guaranty Obligations and (b) all the Guaranty Obligations have been paid in full
and the Commitments have terminated, the Agent will, at the Guarantor's request,
execute and deliver to the Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and
without representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever, necessary to evidence
the transfer by subrogation to the Guarantor of any interest in


                                       3

<PAGE>

the Guaranty Obligations resulting from such payment by the Guarantor. The
Guarantor hereby agrees that it shall have no rights of subrogation with respect
to amounts due to the Agent or the Lenders until such time as all obligations of
BFE to the Lenders and the Agent have been paid in full, the Commitments have
been terminated and the Facility Agreement has been terminated.

             Section 7. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor hereby
represents and warrants as follows:

                  (a) Financial Condition.

                        (i) The consolidated balance sheet of the Guarantor and
            its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2005 and the
            related consolidated statements of income for the fiscal year ended
            on such date, reported on by the Guarantor's independent public
            accountants, copies of which have heretofore been furnished to the
            Agent, are complete and correct, in all material respects, and
            present fairly the financial condition of the Guarantor and its
            consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the results of
             operations for the fiscal year then ended. Such financial
            statements, including any related schedules and notes thereto, have
            been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently
            throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the external
            auditors and as disclosed therein, if any).

                        (ii) Except as disclosed in Schedule VI attached hereto,
            neither the Guarantor nor its consolidated Subsidiaries had, at the
            date of the most recent balance sheet referred to above, any
            material guarantee obligation, contingent liability (as defined in
            accordance with GAAP), or any long-term lease or unusual forward or
            long-term commitment, including, without limitation, any interest
            rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction, which is not
            reflected in the foregoing statements or in the notes thereto,
            except for guarantees, indemnities or similar obligations of the
            Guarantor or a consolidated Subsidiary supporting obligations of one
            Subsidiary to another Subsidiary.

                        (iii) During the period from December 31, 2005 to and
            including the date hereof, except as disclosed in Schedule VI
            attached hereto, neither the Guarantor nor its consolidated
            Subsidiaries has sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of any
            material part of its business or property, nor has it purchased or
            otherwise acquired any business or property (including any capital
            stock of any other Person) material in relation to the consolidated
            financial condition of the Guarantor and its consolidated
            Subsidiaries at December 31, 2005.

                  (b) No Change. Since December 31, 2005, except as disclosed in
         Schedule I hereof, there has been no development or event which has had
         or could, in the Guarantor's good faith reasonable judgment, reasonably
         be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

         its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to
         conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (iii) is duly
         qualified under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership,
         lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires
         such qualification, except where the failure to be so duly qualified
         could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and
         (iv) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law and Contractual
         Obligations, except any non-compliance which could not reasonably be
         expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (d) Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations.

         all necessary corporate action to authorize (i) the borrowings on the
         terms and conditions of the Finance Documents, (ii) the execution,
         delivery and performance of this Guaranty and each of the other Finance
         Documents and Transaction Documents to which it is a party and (iii)

         Guaranty and each of the other Finance Documents and Transaction
         Documents to which they are a party have been duly executed and
         delivered on behalf of the Guarantor and each of its Subsidiaries. Each
         of this Guaranty and each of the other Finance Documents and
         Transaction Documents to which they are a party constitutes a legal,
         valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor and each of its
         Subsidiaries enforceable against the Guarantor and each of its
         Subsidiaries in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may
         be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
         moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors'
         rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether
         enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or law).

                  (e) No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance by
         the Guarantor of this Guaranty, and by it and each of its Subsidiaries
         of the other Finance Documents and Transaction Documents to which each
         such entity is a party, the borrowings thereunder and the use of the
         proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or Contractual
         Obligation or any agreement, instrument or other undertaking to which
         the Guarantor or its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it is bound
         and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any
         Lien on any of the properties or revenues of any of the Guarantor or
         its Subsidiaries pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or agreement,
         instrument or undertaking.

         VII attached hereto, no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or

         or revenues (a) with respect to this Guaranty or the other Finance
         Documents or Transaction Documents or any of the transactions
         contemplated hereby or (b) which could reasonably be expected to have a
         Material Adverse Effect.

                  (g) Ownership of Property; Liens. The Guarantor and each of
         its Subsidiaries has good record and marketable title in fee simple to,
         or a valid leasehold interest in, all its material real property, and

         property except for defects in title which would not have a Material
         Adverse Effect, and none of the property is subject to any Lien, other
         than Permitted Liens.

                  (h) Environmental Matters. The Guarantor and its Subsidiaries
         have obtained all permits, licenses and other authorizations that are
         necessary to operate their respective business and required under all
         applicable Environmental Laws, except where the failure to do so would
         not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as
         set forth on Schedule II, (i) Hazardous Materials have not at any time
         been generated, used, treated or stored on, released or disposed of on,
         or transported to or from, any property owned, leased, used, operated
         or occupied by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries or, to the best
         of the Guarantor's knowledge, any property adjoining or in the vicinity
         of any such property except in compliance with all applicable
         Environmental Laws other than where the failure to do so would not
         reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) there
         are no past, pending or threatened (in writing) Environmental Claims
         against the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries or any property owned,
         leased, used, operated or occupied by the Guarantor or any of its

         expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The operations of the
         Guarantor and its Subsidiaries are in compliance in all material
         respects with all terms and conditions of the required permits,
         licenses, certificates, registrations and authorizations, and are also
         in compliance in all material respects with all other limitations,
         restrictions, conditions, standards, prohibitions, requirements,
         obligations, schedules and timetables contained in the Environmental
         Laws, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be
         expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                  (i) No Default. Except with respect to the Indebtedness set
         forth on Schedule III, neither the Guarantor nor any of its
         Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any agreement,
         instrument or undertaking to which it is a party or by which it is
         bound in any respect which could reasonably be expected to have a
         Material Adverse Effect. No Series 2003-1 Early Amortization Event,
         Potential Series 2003-1 Early Amortization Event or Event of Default
         has occurred and is continuing.

          any indebtedness for borrowed money or guarantee.

         Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of the Guarantor in connection with
         the transactions contemplated hereby and the other Finance Documents
         and Transaction Documents is complete and correct in all material
         respects and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact

         regulatory restriction on the ability of any Designated Obligor to pay
         dividends to the Guarantor out of earnings at such times as such

         of its jurisdiction of incorporation nor any legal or regulatory
         restriction preventing the Guarantor from converting such dividend
         payments to Dollars.

                  (p) Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any loans
         under the Investor Certificates will be used for "purchasing" or
         "carrying" any "margin stock" within the respective meanings of each of

            Agreement and subsection 2.01(b) of the Pooling Agreement and

            except to the extent that the relevant UCC and other similar laws
            (to the extent applicable) permit a Seller (or Bunge Funding, Inc.
            or its assignees) to provide such notification subsequent to the
            applicable Loan Purchase Date without materially impairing the
            Trust's ownership or security interest in the Trust Assets and
            without incurring material expenses in connection with such
            notification) necessary or advisable under the relevant UCC or under
            other applicable laws of jurisdictions outside the United States (to
            the extent applicable) shall have been made or performed in order to
