THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (hereinafter referred to as this “Agreement”), made, entered into and effective this 22 day of October, 2002, by and between GRANITE CITY FOOD & BREWERY, LTD., a Minnesota corporation, hereinafter referred to as “Granite City”, and DONALD A. DUNHAM, JR., an individual, hereinafter referred to as the “Developer”;

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Granite City has developed a restaurant operation which provides to the public casual dining restaurants featuring on-premises breweries under the name “Granite City Food & Brewery™”; and

WHEREAS, Granite City desires to enter into a development agreement with a developer for the purpose of building such facilities and leasing them to Granite City; and

WHEREAS, the Developer desires to construct and develop Granite City Food & Brewery restaurants (hereinafter individually referred to as the “Restaurants” or “Project”) at locations as determined by Granite City and Developer; and

WHEREAS, Granite City is willing to provide the Developer with building plans and specifications and experience, and “know-how” about the Granite City Food & Brewery Restaurants that has been developed by Granite City; and

WHEREAS, the Developer shall provide human resources and expertise to construct and develop the Restaurants;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby contract as follows:

SECTION I.
DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

A. Developer shall perform certain services relating to the development of the Restaurants and shall oversee the development and construction of each Restaurant, and shall perform the services and carry out the responsibilities with respect to the Restaurants as are set forth herein, and such additional duties and responsibilities as are reasonably within the general scope of such services and responsibilities.

B. The Developer’s services shall consist of the duties set forth in the following subparagraphs of this Section I.B and as provided elsewhere in this Agreement. The Developer shall perform the following:

1. Work with Granite City to establish mutually acceptable Project cost goals and to establish a Guaranteed Maximum Cost for each Project.

2. Negotiate the terms and conditions of the purchase agreements or ground lease agreements between Developer and landowners to be used to acquire all properties related to Restaurant development (“Land Agreement”).

a. Prior to negotiating a Land Agreement for a Restaurant site the Developer shall consult with Granite City concerning the basic terms and conditions of such agreement. The final Land Agreement shall be subject to the written consent of Granite City which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

b. Developer shall provide Granite City copies of the following documents prior to closing the Land Agreement for such property for a Restaurant Project,

(i) Title Insurance Commitment and copies of all documents constituting an exception to title.

(ii) Survey meeting ALTA/ACSM Land Title Standards.

(iii) All environmental audits, tests and reports.

(iv) All soil test reports.

3. Negotiate the terms and conditions of a guaranteed maximum cost construction contract between Developer and a general contractor (“Construction Contract”). Prior to negotiating a Construction Contract, the Developer shall consult with Granite City concerning the basic terms and conditions of such contract. The final Construction Contract shall be subject to the written consent of Granite City not to be unreasonably withheld including but not limited to approval of all contractor warranties, allowable costs, disallowed costs, fee amount, overhead amount, insurance requirements, indemnities, and “Completion Date.” The Completion Date will be the date that the Restaurant Project is substantially complete other than for completion of the “Tenants Work” as specified in the lease of the Restaurant Project from Developer to Granite City. The Restaurant Project will be deemed substantially complete when the only legal or functional impediment to Granite City conducting its restaurant operations in the Restaurant is completion of the Tenants Work, and when the Restaurant Project’s external and internal appearance is appropriate for public operations subject to minor punchlist items to be completed during the completion of the Tenants Work. The parties shall discuss the selection of each general contractor prior to selection and such general contractor shall be subject to Granite City’s written approval which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

4. Consult with Granite City prior to entering into any Construction Contract as to which contracts Granite City believes should be awarded on a competitive bidding process, not to require acceptance of the lowest bid and further to provide for such bidding process.

Developer, through its Project Manager, will obtain at least three competitive bids for each site.

5. Consult with Granite City as to which furniture, fixtures and equipment shall be included or excluded from the Construction Contract.

6. Negotiate the terms and conditions of other necessary and appropriate contracts between Developer and contractors and professionals (i.e. appraisers, soil engineers, environmental engineers, civil engineers, etc.) as required to complete facilities. Developer shall require all such contractors and professionals to have adequate liability and errors and omissions insurance and all such contracts shall have adequate indemnity and insurance provisions so as to protect both Developer and Granite City from errors and omissions by such contractors and professionals.

7. Coordinate the approvals needed from local, state, and federal, governmental units and agencies as required to obtain all needed permits for all Restaurant facilities and improvements. Developer shall periodically review with Granite City any design or site plan negotiations with such governmental units and agencies and all final agreements regarding site plans shall be subject to Granite City’s written approval which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

8. Provide periodic cost estimates to Granite City for completion of facilities, and use reasonable efforts to cause revisions to be made to plans and specifications which are approved by Granite City to cause costs to be equal to or less than the Guaranteed Maximum Cost.

9. Conduct meetings pursuant to a construction strip schedule with any and all architects, engineers, contractors, consultants, suppliers, Granite City, and all other involved individuals and entities.

10. Coordinate and communicate development activities between all parties, contractors, governmental agencies, representatives, and Granite City.

11. Assist in supervising construction including consultation with contractors, architects, engineers, Granite City and all other involved individuals and entities.

12. Arrange for periodic formal inspections of the construction process and Project by the architect, Granite City and its agents at such times and frequency as Granite City may require, but not to exceed more than once a month. Granite City and its agents may also informally monitor the construction process from time to time provided Granite City does not interfere with or delay the construction process.

13. Perform and observe in timely fashion each and all of its covenants conditions, obligations and agreements under the construction contract in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.

14. Promptly notify Granite City of any default or breach of or under the Construction Contract by any party thereto or of any failure of performance or other condition that with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would become a default.

15. Coordinate payments to contractors and suppliers and assist in making recommendations for payment for dispute work.

16. Arrange for the construction of required public infrastructure (sewers, streets, etc.) by governmental bodies and advise Granite City as to any estimated special assessments which need to be taken into account in Granite City’s budget.

17. Assemble all Project documents and records including, but not limited to, guarantees, warranties, lien releases, operating manuals, drawings, and other documents referred to in the specifications of the facilities.

18. Prepare punch lists with Granite City upon substantial completion of each facility and supervise corrections of the items and work on such punchlists pending final completion of each facility.

19. Provide timely reporting of Project status to all parties. Developer acknowledges that it is critical to deliver each Restaurant Project substantially completed by the construction contract Completion Date because Granite City (i) will expend substantial amounts for the purchase of furniture, fixtures, and equipment which will be delivered and paid for at a time that is prior to the Completion Date and (ii) will, at significant cost, hire and train a substantial number of employees some of whom will have to be paid whether or not the Restaurant is substantially complete on the Completion Date.

Developer shall be obligated to deliver the Restaurant substantially complete by the Completion Date subject to Unavoidable Delay. Unavoidable Delay shall mean delays in the performance of obligations under this Agreement due to acts of God, acts of the public enemy, the direct unavoidable result of strikes, walk outs and lockouts which could not be reasonably anticipated, fire, floods, epidemics and quarantines, unavailability of power, unavailability of materials which would not reasonably be anticipated, the requirement to remediate environmental conditions other than as noted in environmental audits procured prior to commencing construction, the requirement to correct concealed conditions not revealed by adequate soil tests, action or inaction of governmental authorities, unusually severe weather not reasonably anticipatable, casualty to the Project improvements, and litigation which delays construction by injunction, provided no such occurrence shall constitute “Unavoidable Delay” for a party unless the party gives written notice to the other party of such occurrence within ten (10) days of its first occurrence. For each day of Unavoidable Delay, one day shall be added to the Development Schedule under this Agreement for completion of the affected task and any subsequent task the commencement of which is dependent on completion of the affected task. The parties may amend the Development Schedule by change order to incorporate those changes in completion dates for affected tasks in order to assure agreement on such matters.

20. Subject to Unavoidable Delays, deliver to Granite City first class quality restaurants constructed in accordance with approved plans and specifications within time frames provided by this agreement and the leases to be entered into by Developer and Granite City.

SECTION IV.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT

A. Defined. The term “Event of Default” shall mean any failure by any party to observe or perform any covenant, condition, obligation or agreement on its part to be observed or performed under this Agreement, insolvency of a party, the filing of a petition in bankruptcy by a party or the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against such party which is not dismissed within sixty (60) days.

B. Remedies.

1. Default by Developer. Whenever any Event of Default occurs on behalf of Developer, Granite City may exercise the following remedies after providing fifteen (15) days written notice to the defaulting party of the Event of Default, but only if the Event of Default has not been cured within said fifteen days Granite City may:

a. Suspend its performance under this Agreement and/or the lease; provided that upon Developer curing such Event of Default, Granite City shall resume its performance under this Agreement.

b. Cancel, rescind or terminate this Agreement and/or any lease to an uncompleted restaurant for which this Agreement is terminated.

c. Take whatever other action permitted by law, including legal, equitable or administrative action, which may appear necessary or desirable to enforce performance and observance of any obligation, agreement, or covenant under this Agreement or to obtain and collect a judgment for damages.

2. Default by Granite City. In the event that Granite City is in default of any of its obligations or covenants, set forth in this Agreement, Developer shall have, as its sole

remedy, the right to terminate this Agreement and Granite City shall promptly pay to Developer provided Developer is not in material default of its obligations, covenants, representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement a liquidated damage fee of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), representing a reasonable estimation of the costs, time, and legal and other expenses expended by Developer as a result of Granite City’s default. Such amount is acknowledged by Granite City and Developer to be a reasonable estimate of damages anticipated to be suffered by Developer as a result of Granite City’s failure to perform hereunder and shall not be deemed a penalty or excessive fee. Developer shall not be entitled to make any other claim for damages in addition to or in lieu of the claim for liquidated damages.

C. Termination.

1. Upon termination of the Agreement, the Developer will have no further rights or obligation to construct Restaurants under the Granite City Food & Brewery name.

2. Upon termination, Granite City will have the right to develop and construct its Restaurants in any location and to contract with another party for future development in any location.

3. Upon termination, Granite City will have the right but not the obligation to take assignment from Developer of any existing land purchase agreements for sites identified as Restaurant sites pursuant to this agreement for a purchase price equal to the amount, if any, of Developer’s out of pocket costs relating to such site, and the right but not the obligation to purchase from Developer any uncompleted Restaurant facility subject to this Agreement for a price equal to the lesser of the Guaranteed Maximum Cost or the amount of allowable costs incurred by Developer to date of exercise of Granite City’s purchase. In the event this Agreement is terminated because of the default of a party, the other party shall be entitled to claim damages equal to its unreimbursed out of pocket costs, but will not be entitled to claim lost profits, speculative or consequential damages, except as set out in the liquidated damages clause.

4. Notwithstanding the above, neither Granite City or the Developer shall terminate this Agreement on account of a default which is not a material default (as defined below) provided the defaulting party uses commercially reasonable efforts to cure the default. For purposes of this Agreement a Material Default means a default which either delays the Completion Date by at least 30 days or causes the nondefaulting party at least $50,000 in damages.

D. Dispute Resolution. In the event the parties cannot agree on any matter set out in this Agreement, the parties, at the option of either party, may election to have the matter resolved by mediation. If Granite City elects mediation the mediation shall take place in Minnehaha County, State of South Dakota. If Developer elects mediation the mediation shall take place in Hennepin County, State of Minnesota. The party exercising the option to mediate shall give not less than ten (10) days’ written notice of the mediation. The notice shall state the place and time of mediation and the name of the mediator, who shall be agreed upon by the parties or attorneys for the parties after consultation, or in absence of such agreement, shall be a licensed lawyer with prior experience as a mediator designated by the party calling for the mediation. In the event mediation does not successfully resolve the matter, or in the event the option to mediate is not timely exercised, the parties may seek their remedies at law, including but not limited to the right to pursue such remedies in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction, with the law of the State of South

Dakota, without regard to its conflict of law provisions, to govern the construction and interpretation of this Agreement.

E. No Remedy Exclusive. Except as set forth herein no remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Granite City is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies. Each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at last or in equity or by statute, provided that in no event shall Granite City be entitled to double recovery or multiple remedies which if effected in their totality would be inequitable or in bad faith. No delay or omission to exercise any remedy or power accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such remedy or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof. Any such remedy and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle either party to exercise any remedy reserved to it, it shall not be necessary to give notice, other than such notice as may be required in this Section IV.

F. No Additional Waiver Implied by One Waiver. In the event any Event of Default is waived by the non-defaulting party, such waiver shall be limited to the particular Event of Default so waived and shall not be deemed to waive any other concurrent, previous or subsequent Event of Default hereunder.

SECTION V.
SITE SELECTION

Developer will assume all cost, liability, expense and responsibility for locating and obtaining sites for the Restaurants, provided Granite City has fulfilled its obligations related to review and cooperation in approval of such sites. Developer will be responsible for coordination of constructing or renovating the Restaurants at such sites.

A. Prior to the acquisition of each site for a Restaurant, Granite City will, at its expense, submit to the Developer in writing, a description of the site and a market feasibility study including demographic information, land site plans, photographs, and such other information or materials as the Developer may reasonably require. The Developer will have thirty (30) days after receipt of such information and materials from Granite City to review and approve the proposed site as the location for a Restaurant. If Developer disapproves of any site, Developer will state in writing its reasons for disapproval.

B. If the phase one environmental audit for a potential site indicates a material risk of contamination, the Developer may elect not to develop the site. In such an event Granite City shall agree not to develop such site as well. Developer and Granite City will then endeavor to locate an alternative site.

C. After the location for a Restaurant has been reviewed and agreed upon by the Developer and Granite City, the Developer shall purchase or lease the site with Development Schedule deadline set forth in Section III(A).

D. Granite City shall provide all furniture, fixtures and equipment necessary for the operation of the Restaurants. With respect to each Project, the parties shall enter into a written agreement identifying or classifying items which constitute furniture, fixtures and equipment to be provided by Granite City.

SECTION VI.
INSPECTION

Upon receipt thereof, Developer agrees to provide Granite City copies of all proposed and executed contracts, subcontracts, purchase orders, or other documentation related to the construction of the Restaurant. Granite City or its agents, contractors or employees shall be entitled, but not obligated, to inspect construction of the Restaurant, all records relating to the Project real estate, and the books and other financial records of Developer or the Contractor and Developer relating to the Project. Developer shall require Contractor to cooperate with Granite City in enabling Granite City to accomplish such inspection. At the completion of construction of the Restaurant, all items set forth on any inspection report or punchlist shall be completed before final payment is made to the Contractor. The right of inspection is for the benefit of Granite City. Granite City shall not be deemed to have assumed any responsibility to Developer or the Contractor, or any third party as a result of any such action nor shall Granite City be deemed to have waived any claims or warranties either by exercising such rights or by declining to exercise such rights.

SECTION VII.
LEASE AGREEMENT

A. For each Restaurant site developed by the Developer, Granite City shall enter into a lease agreement (the “Lease”) with Developer or an assignee of Developer substantially in the form of Exhibit A to be finalized and attached prior to October 30, 2002 or such other date to which the parties may mutually agree in writing. If the Parties cannot reach an agreement, this Agreement shall become null and void. Each lease agreement shall contain the following terms:

1. Triple Net. Each lease shall be a “pure” triple net lease in which the Developer will incur no additional operating expenses whatsoever, except for certain capital costs specified in the lease.

2. Term of Lease. Each lease term shall be for twenty (20) years with five (5) five-year options to renew, unless the underlying ground lease term is for a lesser term and Granite City specifically approves a lesser term for that reason.

3. Lease Payments. The annual lease payment shall be determined by multiplying the approved Project costs, identified in the Lease, which shall include land costs, by the lease rate of 10.5% (“Lease Rate”). As an illustration, if the Project costs are $2,000,000, the annual lease payment will be $210,000. If the Developer does not purchase the land, but executes a land lease, the annual land lease cost shall be added to the annual lease payment as determined above. The Lease Rate has been determined using the ten year treasury note (“Index”) indexed at 5%. The Lease Rate shall not be adjusted until the Index either exceeds 6.5% or is equal or below 3.5%. If the Index exceeds 6.5% at the time that each Restaurant opens, the Lease Rate for that Restaurant shall increase by the same amount that the Index exceeds 6.5%, at the option of the Developer and primarily determined by mortgage rates. For example, if the Index is 7%, the Developer may raise the Lease Rate to 11%. If the Index is 3.5% at the time that each Restaurant opens, the Lease Rate for that Restaurant shall decrease by the same amount that the Index is less than 3.5%. For example, if the Index is 3.0%, the Lease Rate shall be 10%.

4. Project Costs. Prior to the commencement of the construction of each Restaurant, the Developer and Granite City shall agree as to the amount of the Guaranteed Maximum Cost. The constructions costs will not change unless Granite City initiates a change to the plans and specifications and both parties execute a change order. However, Granite

City will not be responsible for increases in costs resulting from change orders required as a result of failure of Developer to correctly determine conditions of the Site prior to purchasing the Site. There will be no development fee, financing fee or other fee earned by the Developer it being agreed that the rent fully compensates Developer, except that a project management fee of three percent (3%) of the General Contractor Cost and Tenant Improvements constructed by the General Contractor, payable to Developer, shall be included in the Project Costs. Project costs are more specifically defined in Exhibit B. The General Contractor Cost and Tenant Improvements shall not include other costs such as land purchase costs or “soft costs” including but not limited to architect fees, consultant fees, finance fees, governmental fees, attorney fees, accountant fees, engineer fees, geotechnical costs, or environmental audit costs.

5. Rent Commencement Date. Rent shall commence for each site the earlier of the day Granite City commences to operate as a public restaurant or the first day of the first full month following twenty-one (21) days after the issuance of a certificate of occupancy.

6. Option. The Lease shall contain an option for Granite City to purchase the restaurant real estate for fair market value at the end of the 20^th Lease Year.

7. Right of First Refusal. The Lease shall provide Granite City the right of first refusal to purchase the restaurant real estate during the lease term and any extension or renewal thereof.

SECTION VIII.
NUMBER OF SITES

A. In consideration of Developer entering into this Development Agreement, Developer is given the right to develop and build up to twenty-two (22) restaurants prior to December 31, 2012. Granite City is not bound to authorize Developer to develop twenty-two (22) restaurants in such time period but Granite City shall not use any other developer as long as this Agreement is in effect. Developer shall have the option to waive its right to develop any site for any reason. Notwithstanding the above, Granite City may use another developer to develop a site(s) under the following circumstances:

1. The Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section III or IV. B. because of a Developer Default.

2. Developer declines to develop a particular Project site.

3. If the Developer has developed at least 7 Restaurants, and if the controlling interest in Granite City or substantially all of Granite City’s assets is sold to a third party or Granite City is merged into another entity controlled by third parties, provided any site in process at the time of sale or merger shall be completed pursuant to this Agreement.

B. It is anticipated that Granite City will need to make substantial improvements to the Restaurant every 5 to 7 years during the term of the Lease. After obtaining written approval of such improvements from Developer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Granite City may enter into a construction contract with a general contractor to construct such improvements. In such event Granite City will not commence construction unless Developer approves the contractor, the contract, and builders risk insurance, such approvals not to be

unreasonably withheld or delayed and until Granite City has satisfied Developer that Granite City has the funds necessary to pay the cost of such improvements.

The terms of this Section VIII(B) shall be incorporated in more detail in the Lease.

The Base Rent amount shall be payable in equal monthly installments in advance on or before the first day of each month beginning on the “Commencement Date.” If the “Commencement Date” is not on the first of the month, the Base Rent for the first month shall be prorated.

C. Rental Adjustment During Renewal Terms. If Tenant exercises a renewal option to extend the term of this Lease, the annual Base Rent during the renewal term shall be equal to the annual Base Rent as in effect at the end of the initial term plus any increase as determined in accordance with the provisions of this Section. Annual Base Rent for the renewal terms shall be based on the percentage of change in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (All Items Category) (1982-1984 = 100), as published from time to time by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor (“Consumer Price Index”), or if such Index is not published, a similar index agreed upon by Landlord and Tenant.

The annual Base Rent for the first renewal term shall be calculated by first determining the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index between the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the fifteenth year anniversary, and the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to twentieth annual anniversary date of the term. The result, or ten percent (10%), whichever is less, shall then be applied to the annual Base Rent in effect immediately prior to the first renewal term. The result of the calculation, when added to the annual Base Rental in effect immediately prior to the twentieth annual anniversary date, shall be the annual Base Rent for the first renewal term.

The annual Base Rent for the second renewal term shall be calculated by first determining the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index between the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the twentieth annual anniversary date of the term and the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the twenty-fifth annual anniversary date of the term. The result, or ten percent (10%), whichever is less, shall then be applied to the annual Base Rental in effect during the first renewal term. The result of the calculation, when added to the annual Base Rent in effect during the first renewal term, shall be the annual Base Rent for the second renewal term.

The annual Base Rent for the third renewal term shall be calculated by first determining the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index between the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the twenty-fifth annual anniversary date of the term and the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the thirtieth annual anniversary date of the term. The result, or ten percent (10%), whichever is less, shall then be applied to the annual Base Rental in effect during the second renewal term. The result of the calculation, when added to the annual Base Rent in effect during the second renewal term, shall be the annual Base Rent for the third renewal term.

The annual Base Rent for the fourth renewal term shall be calculated by first determining the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index between the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the thirtieth annual anniversary date of the term and the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the thirty-fifth annual anniversary date of the term. The result, or ten percent (10%), whichever is less, shall then be applied to the annual Base Rental in effect during the third renewal term. The result of the calculation, when added to the annual Base Rent in effect during the third renewal term, shall be the annual Base Rent for the fourth renewal term.

The annual Base Rent for the fifth renewal term shall be calculated by first determining the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index between the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the thirty-fifth annual anniversary date of the term and the date occurring sixty (60) days prior to the fortieth annual anniversary date of the term. The result, or ten percent (10%), whichever is less, shall then be applied to

the annual Base Rental in effect during the fourth renewal term. The result of the calculation, when added to the annual Base Rent in effect during the fourth renewal term, shall be the annual Base Rent for the fifth renewal term.

B. Liability Insurance. Tenant shall also, at its sole cost and expense, but for the benefit of Landlord and Tenant, maintain comprehensive general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Premises, which insurance shall afford combined single occurrence limit protection of not less than three million dollars ($3,000,000) with respect to injury, or death to a single person, with respect to injuries or death from any one accident, and with respect to property damage.

C. Rent Interruption. Tenant shall purchase a rent interruption insurance rider to the fire and extended coverage policy which would provide Landlord up to six (6) months of rent in the event of damage or destruction of the Premises. Tenant shall use reasonable efforts to cause such policy to cover all other occurrences to the Premises which would deprive Landlord of rent.

D. General Requirements. All policies of insurance maintained by Tenant in accordance with this Article 11 shall be subject to and governed by the following:

1. All policies of insurance shall provide that any loss shall be payable in the event that, and notwithstanding, any act or omission of Tenant might otherwise result in a forfeiture or reduction of said insurance and shall contain a waiver of any right to subrogation.

2. All policies of insurance and the form thereof shall be standard policies of the insurer. A certificate of insurance shall be delivered to Landlord at the commencement of the term and renewal certificates policies shall be delivered to Landlord not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any then current policy. Landlord shall be named as an additional insured.

3. It is the intention of the parties that Tenant shall take out, maintain in force and at all times pay for and deliver to Landlord all of the policies of insurance hereinabove referred to at such times and in such manner so that Landlord shall at all times during the term be in possession of policies which are in full force and effect.

4. Each such policy shall provide that it may not be canceled, non-renewed, or materially modified as to the interest of Landlord, except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice from the insurance company to Landlord.

5. Tenant shall not violate or permit any occupant of the Premises to violate any of the conditions or provisions of any such policy.

6. Tenant and Landlord shall cooperate in connection with the collection of any insurance monies that may be due in the event of loss, but at the sole expense of Tenant, and Tenant shall execute and deliver to Landlord such proofs of loss and other instruments as may be required for the purpose of obtaining the recovery of any such insurance monies.

7. The premiums of all transferable insurance policies in force at the termination of the term shall be apportioned as between Landlord and Tenant in such manner that Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for that portion of the aggregate premiums unearned on all such policies in force at the expiration of the term.

E. Waiver of Claims and Subrogation. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Lease to the contrary, Landlord and Tenant hereby release one another from any and all liability or responsibility (to the other or anyone claiming through or under them by way of subrogation or otherwise) for any loss or damage covered by property insurance or coverable by a customary policy of the insurance required by Article 11(a) or Article 11(b) (whichever is applicable), even if such loss or damage shall have been caused by the fault or negligence of the other party, or anyone for whom such party may be responsible.

SECTION XII.
DESTRUCTION

A. Partial or Total Destruction. In the event that the Premises shall be damaged during the initial term of this Lease or at any time during an extended term of this Lease and Tenant is unable to operate its customary restaurant business in the Premises, rent shall abate for the time period Tenant is unable to operate its customary restaurant business except to the extent of available rent interruption insurance proceeds. If such damage renders fifty (50%) percent of the usable space of the Building unusable, Landlord shall have the option of terminating this Lease unless Tenant agrees to continue to pay the rent set forth in the Lease, during the reconstruction period to the extent of available rent interruption insurance, and after completion of restoration, the rent set forth in this Lease and agrees to restore the Premises with the insurance proceeds. Regardless of whether such damage is due to the fault, negligence, act or omission of Tenant, its employees, agents or servants, licensees or invitees, Tenant shall also have the option of terminating this Lease if there are insurance proceeds available for the benefit of the Landlord. Upon termination by either party, Landlord shall retain the right to receive payments under the rent interruption insurance as provided for in Article 11 herein for the time period provided by such insurance up to the balance of the term of this Lease Agreement. In the event of a total or partial destruction of the Premises or any portion thereof during the term of this Lease by any cause or risk including those covered by any policy of insurance referred to in Article 11 above, Tenant shall give to Landlord prompt notice thereof and Tenant, as long as it continues to pay rent, during the reconstruction period to the extent of available rent interruption insurance, and after completion of restoration, the rent set forth in this Lease shall notwithstanding the foregoing, have the option, at its sole cost and expense, whether or not insurance proceeds shall be sufficient for that purpose, and regardless of the amount of any such destruction, to forthwith repair, replace and rebuild the same at least to the extent of the value thereof existing immediately prior to such occurrence, provided such repairs, replacement or rebuilding can be done in accordance with then existing laws and regulations. All such repairs, replacement or rebuilding shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all then existing laws and regulations, and Landlord shall in no event be called upon to repair, replace or rebuild the Premises or any portion thereof. If Tenant elects not to rebuild the Premises, Tenant may terminate the Lease by written notice to Landlord.

B. Notice to Landlord. At least ten (10) days before the commencement of such repairs, replacement or rebuilding, Tenant shall notify Landlord of its intention to commence the same.

C. Application of Insurance Proceeds. For the purpose of payment toward the cost of such repairs, replacement or rebuilding from time to time (but not more frequently than once in each month), Landlord shall make available and pay all net sums received under insurance policies covering such loss, as provided in Article 11 above either: (a) to the parties whom Tenant may employ to repair, replace, or rebuild same as such repairs, replacements, or rebuilding shall progress, or (b) to Tenant if Tenant shall make or pay for such repairs, replacements, or building. In either case, Landlord shall pay said insurance proceeds periodically as work and materials are actually incorporated in the Premises. If the net amount of such insurance proceeds shall be insufficient for the purpose of effecting repairs, replacement or rebuilding of all such damaged or destroyed improvements, Tenant shall pay the additional sums required, and if the amount of such insurance proceeds shall be in excess of the cost thereof, the excess shall be paid to and be retained by Tenant. If the Lease is terminated by either Landlord or Tenant, the insurance proceeds shall be subject to the rights of the holder of any mortgage to which this Lease is or shall be subject and subordinate.

D. Rent Adjustment. If any amount of the insurance proceeds is paid to Landlord or Landlord’s Lender and not used to restore the Premises, the annual base rent shall be reduced by the amount of such payment multiplied by 10.5% (or substitute factor originally used pursuant to Article 3 to originally set the rent), commencing with the first post restoration rent payment.

E. Rights of Landlord. Upon receiving notification from Tenant, if the work of repairing, replacing, or rebuilding such damaged or destroyed building, improvements, furniture or equipment or construction of a new building shall not be commenced within a reasonable time from the date of any such loss, destruction or damage, or after commencement thereof shall not be expeditiously proceeded with to completion and Tenant has ceased paying rent under the terms of the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to cancel and terminate this Lease by giving to Tenant not less than thirty (30) days’ notice of intention to do so.

SECTION XIII.
CONDEMNATION

A. Condemnation Defined. The term “condemnation”, as used in this Lease, shall mean the exercise of the power of eminent domain by any person, entity, body, agency or authority, or purchase in lieu of eminent domain, and the date of condemnation shall mean the day on which the actual physical taking of possession pursuant to the exercise of said power of eminent domain, or purchase in lieu thereof, occurs or the date of settlement or compromise of the claims of the parties hereto during the pendency of this exercise of said power, whichever occurs first, and property is deemed “condemned” on said date; or at Tenant’s option, the day which is the second anniversary of the commencement of the eminent domain action.

B. Landlord’s Right to Collect Proceeds. In the event the Premises or any part thereof shall be taken in condemnation proceedings, Landlord shall be entitled to collect the entire award made in any such proceedings without deduction therefrom for any estate hereby vested in or owned by Tenant subject to Tenant’s rights as hereinafter set forth except Tenant may claim a separate award for moving expenses, loss of going concern, and immovable fixtures. Tenant agrees to execute any and all further documents that may be required in order to facilitate collection by Landlord of any and all such awards. Tenant and any person or entity having an interest in Tenant’s share of the award, in cooperation with Landlord, shall have the right to participate in any condemnation proceedings or agreement as aforesaid for the purpose of protecting Tenant’s interests hereunder.

C. Total Taking. If at any time during the term of the Lease the whole or substantially all of the Premises shall be so taken or condemned, this Lease shall terminate and expire on earlier of the date upon which possession shall vest in the condemning authority or, if earlier, at Tenant’s option, on the second anniversary of the commencement of the eminent domain action, and the rent provided to be paid by Tenant shall be apportioned and paid to such date. For the purposes of this Section, “substantially all of the Premises” shall be deemed to have been taken if taking into consideration the amount of the net award available for such purposes, the portion of the Premises not so taken cannot be so repaired or rebuilt as to constitute a complete, rentable structure suitable for continuing the use to which Tenant was putting the Premises prior to such taking and capable of producing a proportionately fair and reasonable net annual income after payment of all operating expenses thereof, the net rent, as the same may be reduced as a result of such taking, additional rent and all other charges payable hereunder, and after performance of all covenants, agreements, terms and provisions herein and by laws provided to be performed and paid by Tenant.

D. Distribution of Award. In the event of a taking which shall result in the termination of this Lease, the rights of Landlord and Tenant in any award shall be as follows and in the following order of priority:

1. There shall first be paid to the holder of any mortgage on the Premises (regardless of whether this Lease is or shall be subject and subordinate to said mortgage) the unpaid balance of principal and interest due on such mortgage.

2. Landlord shall then retain that part of the award attributable to the land and improvements (reduced by any payment to a mortgagee under (a) above), and consequential and severance damages for the value of Landlord’s interest in the remaining term of this Lease.

3. Tenant shall be entitled to receive the balance of the award, if any.

Notwithstanding the above, Tenant shall be entitled to collect the entirety of any separate award for moving expenses, loss of going concern or immovable fixtures.

E. Partial Taking. In the event of a partial taking which shall not result in the termination of this Lease, Landlord shall promptly proceed to repair, rebuild or restore the remainder of any building on the premises affected thereby to a complete and self-contained architectural unit, for the purposes and uses to which Tenant was putting the Premises before the taking. However, if the aforementioned taking renders the Premises unsuitable for Tenant’s use, Tenant may terminate this Lease as of the date when Tenant is required to yield possession.

F. Rent Adjustment. During the period of any restoration of the Premises the rent shall be abated in proportion to the amount of the Premises that Tenant is unable to use for the serving of customers. If any amount of the condemnation proceeds is paid to the holder of any mortgage on the Premises or to Landlord on account of the taking of Land and/or improvements, and such payment is not applied to reconstruction of the Premises, the annual rent shall be reduced by an amount equal to the amount of such payment multiplied by 10.5% (or the substitute factor originally used pursuant to Article 3 to originally set the rent) commencing with the first post restoration rent payment.

SECTION XIV.
ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING

A. Prohibition Against Assignment. Subject to 14.b. below, Tenant shall not assign this Lease or sublet the whole of the Premises either voluntarily or by operation of law without the prior written consent of Landlord; and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld based on the financial credit worthiness and expertise in restaurant operations of the proposed or potential transferee. Tenant shall not hypothecate or pledge this Lease except as security for the financing of leasehold improvements. Any such assignment or subletting not provided for below, without Landlord’s prior written consent shall be void and, at Landlord’s option, shall terminate this Lease. Any assignment or transfer of this Lease shall not be effective unless the assignee or transferee shall, at the time of such assignment or transfer, assume in writing all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease thereafter to be performed by the Tenant, and shall agree in writing to be bound thereby. Tenant specifically understands and agrees that any assignment or sublease shall in no way release (unless by written agreement with Landlord) the Tenant from any of its obligations and covenants under this Lease, nor should said assignment or sublease be

construed or taken as a waiver of any of Landlord’s rights or remedies hereunder against or as relating to Tenant. In order for Landlord to consider an assignment or sublease, Tenant shall provide the following:

1. Tenant shall give Landlord a twenty (20) day prior written notice of its desire to assign or sublet, which notice shall include reliable information, including but not limited to, the name of the proposed assignee or subtenant, its financial responsibility evidenced by financial statements and/or credit reports, a description of its business activities and specific terms as to the assignment or sublease agreement including rental, term and the date said assignment or sublease is to take effect. Tenant shall comply with all reasonable requests of Landlord for additional information.

2. Provided Landlord submits a preliminary approval of such assignment or sublet, such consent shall be conditioned upon the delivery to the Landlord within thirty (30) days after such preliminary approval of two executed copies of the assignment which shall include an assumption by the assignee, from and after the effective date of the assignment of the performance and observance of the covenants and conditions of this Lease contained on Tenant’s part to be performed and observed, or should a sublease be involved, two executed copies of the sublease agreement which shall include an agreement on the part of the subtenant to be obligated, from and after the effective date of the sublease, to the performance and observance of the covenants and conditions of this Lease contained on Tenant’s part to be performed and observed.

B. Permitted Assignments.

1. The provisions of this Articles shall not be deemed to prohibit (1) transfers of stock among existing stockholders or among spouses, children or grandchildren of existing stockholders or inter vivos or testamentary transfers or other transfers to trusts limited liability companies, limited liability partnerships, family limited partnerships, corporations or other entities established for the benefit of such persons, (2) a public offering of the stock of Tenant, (3) the transfer of outstanding stock which are traded on a recognized securities exchange or (4) a transfer of all of Tenant’s stock to any one person or entity.

2. Tenant may assign this lease or sublease the entire Premises to a parent, affiliate or wholly owned subsidiary of Tenant or to any entity with which or into which Tenant may consolidate or merge or to whom all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant are sold or transferred.

C. Landlord Assignment. Landlord may assign his interest in this Net Lease Agreement without the consent of the Tenant, provided Landlord provides Tenant with a copy of such assignment as a precondition to the effectiveness of such assignment.

SECTION XV.
SECURITY INTEREST

Purchase Money Security Interest. Landlord’s leasehold interest is and shall remain subject and subordinate to any lien securing bona fide purchase money financing of any of the Tenant’s personal property in question in favor of a party unaffiliated with Tenant. Landlord shall not have any lien for performance of any obligations of Tenant upon any fixtures, machinery or equipment, or goods, wares or merchandise or other personal property, and Landlord hereby expressly waives the provisions of any law giving to it such a lien.

Landlord hereby waives any lien which Landlord may have thereupon by operation of law for the performance of any obligations of Tenant hereunder, and Landlord shall promptly execute and deliver to Tenant any instrument so requested of it.

SECTION XVI.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT: REMEDIES

A. Events of Default. Each of the following events shall be an Event of Default hereunder by Tenant and a breach of this Lease:

1. If Tenant shall file a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or for reorganization or arrangement under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or any insolvency act of any state or shall voluntarily take advantage of any such law or act by answer or otherwise or shall be dissolved or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors.

2. If involuntary proceedings under any such bankruptcy law or insolvency act shall be instituted against Tenant or if a receiver or trustee shall be appointed for all or substantially all of the property of Tenant, and such proceedings shall not be dismissed or such receivership or trusteeship vacated within sixty (60) days after institution or appointment.

3. If Tenant shall fail to pay Landlord any rent or additional rent as and when the same shall become due and payable and shall not make such payment within five (5) days after written notice thereof.

4. If this Lease or the estate of Tenant hereunder shall be transferred to any other person or party, except in a manner permitted under Article 14 hereof.

5. If Tenant shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or shall apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver for itself or any of its property.

6. If Tenant shall fail to keep, observe or perform any of the other covenants and agreements herein contained to be kept, observed and performed by Tenant, and such failure shall continue for thirty (30) days after notice thereof in writing to Tenant by Landlord, provided, however, should remedial activity on the part of Tenant reasonably require a period in excess of the said period provided, Tenant shall not be considered to have committed an event of Default provided it diligently pursues said remedial activity for a reasonable period of time as may be required as long as it diligently pursues such remedial activity. In the event that Landlord reasonably determines that the condition of the Premises poses a risk of imminent harm to persons or property and cannot await the thirty (30) day remedial period and Tenant has not commenced such remedial action, Landlord may enter the Premises immediately upon written notice to Tenant for purposes of immediately remediating such condition. In such event, Tenant shall reimburse Landlord its costs within ten (10) days of Landlord’s written demand.

B. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and continuance of Tenant’s Event of Default for failure to pay Rental when due, Landlord shall give Tenant ten (10) days’ written notice that Tenant’s Event of Default has occurred, specifying Tenant’s Event of Default and the action required necessary to cure Tenant’s Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and continuance of Tenant’s Event of Default other than the failure to pay Rent when due, Landlord shall give Tenant thirty (30) days’ written notice of Tenant’s Event of Default, specifying Tenant’s Event of Default and the action

required to cure Tenant’s Event of Default. If Tenant fails to cure Tenant’s Event of Default within the time provided to cure, Landlord may resort to any and all legal remedies or combination of legal remedies which Landlord may desire to assert including but not limited to Landlord bringing an action for ejectment of Tenant and obtain an order for the sheriff to enter the Premises and removing all persons and chattels therefrom and Landlord shall not be liable for damages or otherwise by reason of re-entry or termination. Notwithstanding such termination, the liability of Tenant for the rent provided for hereinabove shall not be extinguished for the balance of the term remaining after said termination.

Should termination of Tenant’s estate occur as herein provided, or should Landlord take possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, it may either terminate this lease or it may from time to time without terminating this Lease, make such alterations and repairs as may be necessary in order to relet the premises, and relet said premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the term of this lease) and at such rental or rentals and upon such other terms and conditions as reletting all rentals received by Landlord from such reletting shall be applied, first, to the payment of any indebtedness other than rent due hereunder from Tenant to Landlord; second, to the payment of any costs and expenses of such reletting, including brokerage fees and attorneys’ fees and of costs of such alterations and repairs; third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder, and the residue, if any, shall be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable hereunder.

If such rentals received from such reletting during any month be less than that to be paid during that month by Tenant hereunder, Tenant shall pay any such deficiency to Landlord. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. No such re-entry or taking possession of said premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this lease unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant or unless the termination thereof be decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding any such reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this lease for such previous breach. Should Landlord at any time terminate this lease for any breach, in addition to any other remedies it may have, it may recover from Tenant all damages it may incur by reason of such breach, including the worth at the time of such termination of the excess, if any, of the amount of rent and charges equivalent to rent reserved in this lease for the remainder of the stated term over the then reasonable rental value of the Premises for the remainder of the stated term, all of which amounts shall be immediately due and payable from Tenant to Landlord. In determining the rent which would be payable by Tenant hereunder, subsequent to default, the rent for the unexpired term shall be equal to the base monthly rent, for each remaining month plus Tenant’s share of taxes, insurance, and maintenance from the commencement of the term to the time of default. The “worth” of such sum shall be determined by determining the sum of the present value of all such payments using a 10.5% interest factor. Upon termination of the Lease, Tenant shall surrender possession and vacate the Premises immediately, and deliver possession thereof to Landlord.

C. Cure of Default. If Tenant defaults in the making of any payment, or in the doing of any act herein required to be made or done by Tenant, or does or suffers any act prohibited herein, beyond applicable cure periods, then Landlord may, but shall not be required to, make such payment or do such act, or correct any damage caused by such prohibited act and to enter the Premises as appropriate in connection therewith, and the amount of the expense thereof, if made or done so by Landlord, with interest thereon at the Interest Rate (as hereinafter defined) from the date paid by Landlord, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord and shall constitute additional rent hereunder due and payable with the next monthly installment of rent.

D. Landlord’s Default. Should Landlord be in default under the terms of this lease, Landlord shall have thirty (30) days in which to cure the same after written notice to Landlord by Tenant, provided however should remedial action on the part of Landlord reasonably require a period in excess of said period, Landlord shall have a reasonable amount of time to cure such default provided Landlord diligently pursues such cure. If Tenant is not able to operate its customary business during the time Landlord is pursuing such cure, the rent shall be reduced pro rata based on the percentage of the customer seating area Tenant is able to operate. If the default is not cured within the applicable time period, Tenant may terminate the lease upon written notice to Tenant given prior to completion of any cure of the default.

E. Waiver of Redemption. Tenant hereby expressly waives, to the full extent waivable, any and all rights or redemption granted by or under any present or future laws in the event of Tenant being evicted or dispossessed for any cause, or in the event of Landlord obtaining possession of the Premises, by reason of the violation of Tenant of any of the covenants or conditions of this lease, or otherwise.

F. Remedies Cumulative. No remedy herein or otherwise conferred upon or reserved to Landlord or Tenant shall be considered to exclude or suspend any other remedy, but the same shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder now or hereafter existing at law or by statute and every power and remedy given by this Lease to Landlord or Tenant may be exercised from time to time and as often as occasion may arise or may be deemed expedient. No delay or admission of Landlord or Tenant to exercise any right or power arising from any event of default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such event of default or acquiescence therein. Notwithstanding the above Landlord shall not be entitled to double recovery or inequitable accumulation of remedies.

G. Miscellaneous. If any installment of rent is not paid by Tenant within five days after the same becomes due and payable: (i) a late charge in the amount of $100.00 shall become immediately due and payable as compensation to Landlord for administrative costs; and (ii) the unpaid balance due Landlord shall bear interest at the Interest Rate from the date such installment became due and payable to the date of payment thereof by Tenant, and such interest shall constitute additional rent hereunder which shall be immediately due and payable. The “Interest Rate” as used herein means 12%.

SECTION XVII.
SURRENDER OF PREMISES

Tenant shall, upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, peaceably vacate and surrender the Premises to Landlord in good order, condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. Tenant shall leave the Premises and appurtenances thereto free and clear of rubbish and broom clean.

SECTION XVIII.
SUBORDINATION

A. Definition of Mortgage. For the purposes of this Article, the term “Mortgage” shall mean at any time, any mortgage of record now or hereafter placed against the Premises, any increase, amendment, extension, refinancing or recasting of a Mortgage and, in the case of a sale or lease and leaseback by Landlord of all or any part of the Premises, the lease creating the leaseback. For the purposes hereof, a Mortgage shall be deemed to continue in effect after foreclosure thereof and during the period of redemption therefrom.

B. Subordination of Lease. Landlord shall provide Tenant a recordable subordination, non disturbance and attornment agreement executed by every holder of a mortgage against the Premises prior to commencement of construction of the Building and subsequently within thirty (30) days of recording any mortgage. Such document shall provide that such holder shall not disturb Tenant’s possession of the Premises under this Lease provided Tenant is not in default of the Lease beyond applicable cure periods. Such document shall not contain any modifications to the substantive lease terms. As long as there is an executed Subordination, Non-Disturbance and Attornment Agreement between the Landlord, Tenant and any Mortgagee, this Lease is subject and subordinate to the lien of any Mortgage which may now or hereafter encumber the Premises or any development of which the Premises is a part. In confirmation of such subordination, Tenant shall, at Landlord’s request from time to time, promptly execute any certificate or other document requested by the holder of the Mortgage. Tenant agrees that in the event that any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any Mortgage, Tenant shall immediately and automatically attorn to the purchaser at such foreclosure sale, as Landlord under this Lease, and Tenant waives the provisions of any statute or rule of law, nor or hereafter in effect, which may give or purport to give Tenant any right to terminate or otherwise adversely affect this Lease or the obligations of Tenant hereunder in the event that any such foreclosure proceeding is prosecuted or completed. Neither the holder of the Mortgage (whether it acquires title by foreclosure or by deed in lieu thereof) nor any purchaser at foreclosure sale shall be liable for any act or omission of Landlord or bound by any prepayment by Tenant of more than one month’s installment of Base Rent and additional rent or by any modification of this Lease made subsequent to the granting of the Mortgage.

SECTION XIX.
CERTIFICATES BY TENANT AND LANDLORD

A. Certificate by Tenant. Tenant shall, at any time and from time to time, upon not less than twenty (20) days’ prior notice by Landlord, execute and acknowledge to Landlord a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there shall have been modifications that the Lease is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), and the dates to which the base rent and the additional rent have been paid, and stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signer of such certificate, Landlord is in default in keeping, observing or performing any term, covenant, agreement, provision, condition or limitation contained in this Lease, and, if in default, specifying each such default of which the signer may have knowledge, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant to this Article 19(a) may be relied upon by Landlord or any prospective purchaser of the fee or any mortgage thereto or any assignee of any mortgage upon the fee of the Premises, but reliance on such certificate may not extend to any default of Landlord as to which the signer for Tenant shall have had no actual notice. Such certificate shall not contain any amendments to the substantive terms of the Lease.

B. Certificate by Landlord. Landlord shall, at any time and from time to time, upon not less than twenty (20) days’ prior notice by Tenant execute and acknowledge to Tenant a statement in writing certifying that this Lease is unmodified and in full force and effect (or if there shall have been modifications that the Lease is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications), and the dates to which the base rent and additional rent have been paid, and stating whether or not, to the best knowledge of the signer of such certificate, Tenant is in default in keeping, observing or performing any term, covenant, agreement, provision, condition, or limitation contained in this Lease, and if in default, specifying each such default of which the signer may have knowledge, it being intended that any such statement delivered pursuant to this Article 19(b) may be relied upon by any prospective assignee of Tenant’s interest in this Lease,

any prospective sublessee of the entire Premises or any mortgagee of this Lease or of any sublease of the entire Premises, or any assignee of any mortgage upon the leasehold estate created hereby or by any sublease, but reliance on such certificate may not extend to any default of Tenant as to which the signer for Landlord shall have had no actual knowledge.

SECTION XXI.
WAIVER

Failure of Landlord to insist upon the strict performance of any or all of the terms or conditions herein shall not constitute, nor be construed as, a waiver of Landlord’s right to thereafter enforce any such terms or conditions, but the same shall continue in full force and effect.

SECTION XXII.
HOLDING OVER

In the event Tenant shall continue to occupy the Premises after the expiration of the term hereof, such holding over shall not operate to extend or renew this Lease, but shall be construed as a tenancy from month to month which may be terminated by either party upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice.

SECTION XXIII.

SECTION XXIV.
RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

If at any time during the term of this Lease or any renewal period thereof, Landlord receives a bona fide offer from a third party for the sale to said third party of the Landlord’s interest in the Premises, Landlord shall give Tenant the right to purchase the Premises at the same price and on the same terms as contained in said bona fide offer. Upon receipt of written notice (and a copy of said offer) from Landlord that Landlord has received a bona fide offer it is willing to accept, Tenant shall, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of said notice, give written notice to Landlord as to whether Tenant has elected to exercise its right to purchase the Premises, or said part interest, on the same terms and conditions as contained in said bona fide offer. In the event that Tenant exercises said right to purchase the Premises, Tenant shall be required to close its acquisition of the Premises within ninety (90) days, and upon the terms and conditions as third party offeror would have been required to close its acquisition of the Premises. In the event that Tenant does not exercise said right to purchase the Premises Landlord shall require as a condition of sale that the third party offeror agree that the Tenant’s interest in this Lease shall not be affected by said transfer of ownership and the third party offeror shall assume all of the Landlord’s obligations hereunder.

It is understood that, for purposes of this paragraph, a bona fide offer shall refer to an offer where the earnest money deposited with Landlord by said third party is equal to at least five percent (5%) of the purchase price offered by said third party.

This right of first refusal is a continuing right and if Tenant does not exercise its right of first refusal shall continue with regard to further offers so long as this Lease is in effect.

SECTION XXV.
OPTION TO PURCHASE

So long as this Lease is in full force and effect and Tenant is not in default hereunder, Tenant shall have the option to purchase, at any time after the nineteenth anniversary of the Commencement Date and prior to the twentieth anniversary of the Commencement Date, all right, title and interest of Landlord in and to the Premises for the fair market value as defined below and as determined below.

A. Fair Market Value. “Fair Market Value” shall mean the price a willing buyer would pay a willing seller for the Premises with the buyer having no necessity to purchase the Premises and the seller having no necessity to sell the Premises.

B. Determination of Fair Market Value. Within fifteen (15) days of the date Tenant gives notice to Landlord of Tenant’s election to have the fair market value and the Premises determined, Tenant shall give Landlord written notice of an appraiser and Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of an appraiser. Within thirty (30) days after the Election Date the two appraisers shall select a third appraiser. All appraisers shall be independent from the Landlord and Tenant and have no conflict of interest, shall have MAI certification and at least ten (10) years experience appraising real estate including appraising at least five (5) restaurants. Each appraiser shall complete and deliver to Tenant and Landlord an appraisal of the Premises in compliance with MAI standards within 120 days of the Election Date.

Any appraisal that is ten percent (10%) more or less then the average of the appraisals shall not be used. The average of the remaining appraisals shall be deemed the fair market value of the Premises. The appraisers shall give each party copies of the appraisals and final written notice of the fair market value. The decision shall be final and not subject to appeal in the absence of fraud or other failure to follow the requirements set forth herein. The parties shall each pay one-half the cost of the appraisers.

Such option shall be exercised, if at all, by Tenant giving written notice thereof to Landlord, said notice period to be within thirty (30) days after having received a Final Written Notice of the fair market value as described above. Landlord shall provide Tenant with a warranty deed conveying marketable title to Tenant and with a current title insurance commitment to insure marketable title to the Premises. The title insurance company may use the sales proceeds to pay such encumbrances and costs as are necessary to insure marketable title in the name of Tenant subject to Tenant’s mortgage financing. Subsequent closing of the sale and purchase must occur within ninety (90) days from the date the option is exercised.
