A food which is to be labeled, processed or repacked in substantial quantities in accordance with regular trade practice, at an establishment other than that where originally processed or packed, shall be exempt, except as provided by §269 and §271, from compliance with the labeling requirements of Section 608 (3), (7), (8), (9), (10), (11) of the Act during transit from the original establishment to the labeling, processing or repacking plant, if:

2. the shipment or delivery of food is made under a written agreement, signed by and containing the post office addresses of the person responsible for the shipment or delivery and the operator of the labeling, processing, or repacking plant and also containing specifications for the labeling, processing, or repacking, as the case may be, which if followed will ensure that the food will not be adulterated or misbranded within the meaning of the Act upon completion of the labeling, processing, or repacking.
