RE:  REPRESENTATION WITH THE MCLANE COMPANY

Dear Jack,

As we have discussed and subject to Board approval, we would like to offer you
the opportunity to represent National Tobacco Company, I.P. ("NTC"), North
Atlantic Operating Company, Inc. ("NAOC") and North Atlantic Cigarette Company,
Inc. ("NACC") (together, the "Companies") with respect to the Companies'
relationship with and its sales activity to the McLane Company ("McLane"). In
general, your duties will be to use your best efforts to increase the Companies'
sales and to foster a strong relationship with McLane.

The Companies, through NTC, will compensate you by paying you a percentage of
Net Sales achieved over certain targets. "Net Sales" is defined to mean Gross
Sales less (i) cash discount (early payment terms), (ii) returns, (iii)
allowances (any discount or other incentives offered to McLane, all of which
must be documented) and (iv) any other deductions, proper or otherwise, taken by
McLane.

The percentages and targets, which are set by product category, are:

Loose Leaf Tobacco Products
- ---------------------------
You will be compensated at a rate of 2.6% of the dollar amount of Net Sales in
2006 in excess of 2005 Net Sales. To illustrate, if Net Sales for loose leaf for
the year 2006 is $1 million more than 2005 Net Sales, you will be paid 2.6% on
the $1 million excess sales gain, or $26,000.

Premium Cigarette Papers
- ------------------------
You will be compensated at a rate of 3.0% of the dollar amount of 2006's Net
Sales in excess of Net Sales in 2005.



Make-Your-Own Cigarette Tobacco and Related Products
- ----------------------------------------------------
You will be compensated at a rate of 1.3% of the dollar amount of Net Sales in
2006 in excess of 2005 Net Sales.

Cigarettes
- ----------
You will be compensated at a rate of 3.5% of the dollar amount of Net Sales in
2006 in excess of 2005 Net Sales.

Payment will be made within 45 days of the end of the calendar year.

This agreement will commence January 1, 2006 and will conclude on December 31,
2006. The agreement may be extended on ninety (90) days' notice prior to the
expiration of term by mutual agreement of the parties.

You are an independent contractor and nothing in this agreement shall be
constructed as giving you the status of an "employee." Nonetheless, when
conducting yourself on behalf of the Companies, you will agree to observe and
follow all of the Companies' policies and procedures. In addition, you do not
have the authority to independently bind the Companies to any commitment without
prior written approval of executive management.

This agreement is in addition to and does not modify your existing Consulting
Agreement.

We are pleased that you are willing to represent us and look forward to our
mutual success.

If the above accurately states our agreement, please sign below to indicate your
acceptance.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Douglas P. Rosefsky
