NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the respective
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties herein
contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as
follows:
ARTICLE I
CERTAIN MATTERS
Section 1.1 Effectiveness. Sections 1.3 and 1.4 and Articles II and
-------------
III of this Agreement shall become effective only upon the time of first
acceptance for payment of Shares under the Offer (as such capitalized terms are
defined in the Merger Agreement). If the Merger Agreement is terminated for any

Section 1.2 Company Option. Notwithstanding anything to the
--------------
contrary contained in the Change of Control Agreement, each vested option to
acquire shares of Company common stock held by Consultant at the Effective Time
(as defined in the Merger Agreement) which has an exercise price less than the
Offer Price (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) shall be cancelled
and terminated at the Effective Time in consideration for a payment in cash by
the Company to Consultant promptly following the Effective Time of an amount
equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the excess (if any) of the
Offer Price over the per share exercise price of such option and (y) the number
of shares of Company common stock covered by such option. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Change of Control Agreement, effective
as of and subject to the Effective Time, Consultant releases, waives and forever
relinquishes any options to acquire shares of Company common stock held by
Consultant at the Effective Time pursuant to any stock option plan or otherwise,
whether or not such options are vested or unvested, in respect of which the

immediately preceding sentence. Nothing in this Section 1.2 shall prohibit the
Consultant from exercising any options to acquire shares of Company common stock
prior to the Effective Time.
Section 1.3 Compensation and Related Matters.

2
times the Consultant's Annual Compensation (as defined in the Change of Control

annual base salary after the date of termination of Consultant's employment,
provided that if the entire amount specified in this clause (ii) has not been
paid to the Consultant by July 1, 2001 through such bi-weekly payments then any
such remaining amount shall be paid to the Consultant in a lump sum on July 1,
2001; (iii) an amount equal to the six month cost to Consultant of continuing
Consultant's present health care coverage under the Company's COBRA program
(grossed up to compensate Consultant for the taxable nature of such payment),
payable in twelve equal bi-weekly installments after the date of the termination
of Consultant's employment with the Company; and (iv) an amount equal to the six
month cost to the Company of continuing to provide Consultant's current non-
electable life insurance and insurance coverage for accidental death and
disability assuming Consultant had continued as an employee of the Company (all
as grossed-up to compensate Consultant for the taxable nature of such
payments), payable in twelve equal bi-weekly installments after the date of the
termination of Consultant's employment with the Company. The Purchaser shall
have no right of setoff under this Agreement.
(b) Business Expenses. The Consultant will be reimbursed by Purchaser

ARTICLE IV
NON-COMPETITION
Section 4.1 Reasonableness of Provisions.
----------------------------
(a) The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the provisions
contained in Article IV of this Agreement are reasonable with respect to their
duration, geographical area and scope. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Consultant further acknowledges and agrees that any and all of
the provisions of Article IV of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary
to protect the legitimate interests of the Purchaser. For purposes of this
Article IV only, the term "Purchaser" shall mean any and all of Purchaser and
---------
its subsidiaries from time to time (including, without limitation, the Surviving
Corporation (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) from and after the
time of the first acceptance for payment of Shares under the Offer).
(b) The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the food service and
theme restaurant business of the Purchaser (as such business is conducted as of

to, has and may in the future have knowledge of confidential information of the
Purchaser, including, but not limited to, the identity of the Purchaser's

demographic and other information related to actual and targeted customers of

information, intellectual property and other trade secrets (collectively, the
"Confidential Information").
------------------------
(c) The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the direct or indirect
disclosure by the Consultant of any Confidential Information to existing or
potential competitors of the Purchaser or the Business would place the Purchaser
at a competitive disadvantage and would do serious damage, monetary and
otherwise, to the Purchaser and the Business.
(d) The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the Consultant's
engaging in any of the activities prohibited by this Agreement may constitute
improper appropriation or use of the Confidential Information or both. The
Consultant acknowledges the trade secret status of the Confidential Information
and that the Confidential Information constitutes a protectible business
interest of Purchaser.

Section 5.4 Specific Performance. The Consultant recognizes and
--------------------
agrees that if for any reason any of the provisions of this Agreement are not
performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached,
immediate and irreparable harm or injury would be caused to the Purchaser for
which money damages would not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, the
Consultant agrees that, in addition to any other available remedies, the
Purchaser shall be entitled to an injunction re-

unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provisions in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the
generality of the immediately preceding sentence, in the event that a court of
competent jurisdiction determines that the provisions of this Agreement would be
unenforceable as written because they cover too extensive a geographic area, too
broad a range of activities, or too long a period of time, or otherwise, then

virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.
Section 5.7 Assignment. Neither this Agreement, nor any rights,
----------
interests or obligations hereunder, may be directly or indirectly assigned,
delegated or transferred by any party to this Agreement, in whole or in part, to

-------- -------
of law or otherwise) all or a portion of its rights under this Agreement. The
Company shall be entitled to
14
rely upon the Consultant's undertakings and agreements contained in this
Agreement.
Section 5.8 Miscellaneous. No provisions of this Agreement may be
-------------
modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is
agreed to in writing signed by the parties hereto. No waiver by a party hereto
at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any
condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party
shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at
the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations,
oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof
have been made by the parties which are not set forth expressly in this
Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with

the use of a particular gender are for convenience only and shall in no way
modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

together will constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 5.12 Provision of Notice. Purchaser shall notify Consultant
-------------------
in the event that Purchaser has knowledge that Consultant has materially
violated any of his obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that
-------- -------
any failure by Purchaser to provide, or any delay in Purchaser's providing, any
such notice to Consultant shall not in any manner affect, limit, discharge,
waive or restrict (i) any of the Purchaser's or the Company's rights under this
Agreement or under law or (ii) any of the Consultant's obligations under this
