RESTAURANT BUSINESS Sample Clauses

RESTAURANT BUSINESS. The Company's restaurant operations are located primarily in smaller cities and suburban areas in the southeastern United States, a market niche where the primary competitors are economy steakhouses. At May 1, 1998, the Company owned and operated 38 Sagebrush steakhouse restaurants, which provide family-oriented, full-service, casual dining in an atmosphere suggestive of a Texas roadhouse. The Company also owned and operated 17 Western Steer and five Prime Sirloin restaurants, which are more mature family steakhouses using the "buffet and bakery" format, and one Bennxxx'x xxxbecue-style restaurant. Sagebrush restaurants are the only causal dining steakhouses in a majority of the local markets in which they operate. The Company intends to convert all but seven of its family steakhouse restaurants to the Sagebrush concept within two years based on the historically attractive unit economics of the Sagebrush format. A typical Sagebrush restaurant generates 44% more revenue and 99% more EBITDA than a typical Western Steer restaurant. The Company has extensive experience in converting restaurants to the Sagebrush format as 27 of the Company's 38 Sagebrush restaurants were originally converted from other restaurant concepts. Since Fresh Foods acquired Sagebrush, Inc. in January 1998, the Company has converted three Western Steer restaurants to the Sagebrush concept and has realized a significant increase in weekly sales volume at these locations. Other than the restaurants currently being converted and three new Sagebrush restaurants in development, the company has no plans to build other Sagebrush restaurants.

  • Business Landlord acknowledges that it is not the intent of this Section 30 to prohibit Tenant from using the Premises for the Permitted Use. Tenant may operate its business according to prudent industry practices so long as the use or presence of Hazardous Materials is strictly and properly monitored according to all then applicable Environmental Requirements. As a material inducement to Landlord to allow Tenant to use Hazardous Materials in connection with its business, Tenant agrees to deliver to Landlord prior to the Commencement Date a list identifying each type of Hazardous Materials to be brought upon, kept, used, stored, handled, treated, generated on, or released or disposed of from, the Premises and setting forth any and all governmental approvals or permits required in connection with the presence, use, storage, handling, treatment, generation, release or disposal of such Hazardous Materials on or from the Premises (“Hazardous Materials List”). Tenant shall deliver to Landlord an updated Hazardous Materials List at least once a year and shall also deliver an updated list before any new Hazardous Material is brought onto, kept, used, stored, handled, treated, generated on, or released or disposed of from, the Premises. Tenant shall deliver to Landlord true and correct copies of the following documents (the “Haz Mat Documents”) relating to the use, storage, handling, treatment, generation, release or disposal of Hazardous Materials prior to the Commencement Date, or if unavailable at that time, concurrent with the receipt from or submission to a Governmental Authority: permits; approvals; reports and correspondence; storage and management plans, notice of violations of any Legal Requirements; plans relating to the installation of any storage tanks to be installed in or under the Project (provided, said installation of tanks shall only be permitted after Landlord has given Tenant its written consent to do so, which consent may be withheld in Landlord’s sole and absolute discretion); all closure plans or any other documents required by any and all federal, state and local Governmental Authorities for any storage tanks installed in, on or under the Project for the closure of any such tanks; and a Surrender Plan (to the extent surrender in accordance with Section 28 cannot be accomplished in 3 months). Tenant is not required, however, to provide Landlord with any portion(s) of the Haz Mat Documents containing information of a proprietary nature which, in and of themselves, do not contain a reference to any Hazardous Materials or hazardous activities. It is not the intent of this Section to provide Landlord with information which could be detrimental to Tenant’s business should such information become possessed by Tenant’s competitors.
