<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 102
of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (&#147;DGCL&#148;), allows a
corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation
to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of
loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or
knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a
stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper
personal benefit.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Section
145 of the DGCL provides that directors, officers, employees or agents of
Delaware corporations are entitled, under certain circumstances, to be
indemnified against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) and other liabilities
actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any suit brought
against them in their capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, if
they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their
conduct was unlawful. Section 145 also provides that directors, officers,
employees and agents may also be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with a
derivative suit bought against them in their capacity as a director, officer,
employee or agent, as the case may be, if they acted in good faith and in a
manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made without court
approval if such person was adjudged liable to the corporation.</font></p>

arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</p>

The

reference" the information that we file with it.  The following
documents previously filed by Cuisine Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") with the
SEC under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), are hereby incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement:
•
Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, filed September

•
Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 22, 2007, filed

In

pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c) 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and
prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment indicating that all
securities offered pursuant to this Registration Statement have been sold or

deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or

Item 4.
Description of Securities.

Item 5.
Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable
Item 6.
Indemnification of directors and officers.
The
Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 102
of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended ("DGCL"), allows a
corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation
to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of
loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or
knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a
stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper
personal benefit.
Section
145 of the DGCL provides that directors, officers, employees or agents of
Delaware corporations are entitled, under certain circumstances, to be
indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) and other liabilities
actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any suit brought
against them in their capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, if
they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their
conduct was unlawful. Section 145 also provides that directors, officers,
employees and agents may also be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with a
derivative suit bought against them in their capacity as a director, officer,
employee or agent, as the case may be, if they acted in good faith and in a
manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made without court
approval if such person was adjudged liable to the corporation.
Article
VII of our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires us
to indemnify any person who may be indemnified by a Delaware corporation
pursuant to Section 145 of the DGCL in each situation where we are permitted to
indemnify such persons.
3
The
indemnification provisions as are or may be contained in our second amended and
restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws are not
exclusive of any other rights to which a person may be entitled by law,
agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. In
addition, we maintain insurance on behalf of our directors and executive
officers insuring them against any liability asserted against them in their
capacities as directors or officers or arising out of such status.

Item 8.
Exhibits.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
(a)
The registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or
sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration
statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the
most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be
reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to
Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering
price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement;
(iii)
To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration
statement.
Provided,
however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission
by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration
statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(b)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes
that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a)
or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable,
each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference
in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
