$3,000,000.00 remains unchanged. That all the terms and
conditions of the original Asset Purchase Agreement and
Xxxxxxx Money Contract shall be in full force and effect
unless changed by these Amendments. These Amendments shall
supersede and replace the terms of the Asset Purchase
Agreement and Xxxxxxx Money Contract.
1. The downpayment, however allocated between the

Buyer's execution and delivery of a Promissory Note
to be executed at Closing in the amount of
$200,000.00 amortized over 18 months, bearing
interest at the rate of 10% per annum payable in 17
equal monthly installments of principal and interest,
and a final balloon payment due on the 18th monthly

and all other indebtedness owned from the
Buyer/Purchaser to any of the Sellers.

shall be paid according to the terms of the Asset

6. Following the execution of these Amendments,
Buyer/Purchaser shall be permitted to commence
construction or improvements of the building for
dressing rooms in the basement and a kitchen on the
ground floor following completion of the dressing
rooms. All such construction and improvements shall
be at the expense of Buyer/Purchaser and such
constructions and improvements shall not commence
until the Sellers have been provided with
certificates of insurance providing general
comprehensive liability insurance and coverage of not
less than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence and per person
and fire and extended coverages in an amount not less
than $750,000.00. Such certificate shall be specified
through all policies of insurance in effect and shall
not be canceled except upon ten (10) days prior
written notice to Sellers, and all
policies of insurance shall name Sellers as an
additional insured thereunder. Buyer/Purchaser shall
obtain the consent of Xxxxxxxx for all such
construction and improvements, which consent shall

deposit all funds required to pay for the
construction or improvements contemplated. Xxxxxxxx'x
written consent shall be required for any
dispersements from the escrow account.
Buyer/Purchaser shall produce appropriate lien
waivers prior to dispersement.
B. Nothing contained in these Amendments or the original Asset
Purchase Agreement and Xxxxxxx Money Contract shall prevent
the Buyer/Purchaser from prepaying any amount due thereunder;
however, until all the obligations of Buyer/Purchaser to
Seller are paid or performed according to the terms of the
various Agreements, Buyer/Purchaser shall not be provided with
any satisfaction, release, or termination of any and all
mortgages, security agreements, and notes. It is further
agreed that Buyer/Purchaser may not sell, assign, or transfer

"8. REMODELING. The parties hereto agree that
the Purchaser may commence remodeling of the
real property after the execution of
these Amendments and before the contemplated
closing of October 31, 1997. The parties'
agreement to allow the remodeling to
commence prior to closing on this Agreement
shall be subject to the following:
a. The remodeling shall be limited to
the construction or improvement to
the dressing rooms in the basements,
which shall be done first, and then
for the construction of a kitchen on
the ground floor.
b. Purchaser shall retain a Contractor
licensed to do business in the City
of Minneapolis and State of
Minnesota to perform the remodeling
work. The Contractor shall secure
any necessary permits and
inspections necessary for the proper
completion of the work.
c. All plans and specifications
relating to the remodeling shall be
approved in writing by Seller prior
to any work being commenced. Any
material change or modification to
those plans and specifications shall
also be approved in writing by
Seller. Seller's approval will not
be unreasonably withheld.
d. The Contractor shall provide a firm
bid for the remodeling prior to
construction and any changes to the
bid shall be in writing from the
Contractor, which will include a
sworn construction statement listing
subcontractors and materialmen.
e. Purchaser agrees to deposit funds
equal to the amount of the
remodeling costs as set forth in
Contractor's firm bid in an
interest-bearing escrow account
requiring two signatures, one by
Seller and one by Purchaser. Seller
agrees to sign checks to disburse
funds from that escrow account
directly to Contractor and/or
Subcontractors in exchange for full
or partial mechanic's lien waivers
from Contractor and/or
Subcontractors. Purchaser shall also
sign those checks. Seller agrees to
cooperate with Purchaser in
disbursing reasonable progress
payments to Contractor based upon
Contractor's completion of work.
Seller may use those funds to
discharge any mechanic's liens filed
against the real property relating
to remodeling work done by Purchaser
by paying them into Hennepin County
District Court for that purpose, or
if Purchaser does not dispute the
mechanic's lien claim, by paying
them directly
to Contractor and/or Subcontractor
for a mechanic's lien waiver.
Purchaser agrees to execute the
checks necessary to accomplish the
above. Prior to or contemporaneously
with the release of all of the
escrowed funds to the Contractor,
Contractor shall provide a full
mechanic's lien waiver from itself
and its subcontractors and
materialmen to Seller and Purchaser.
f. Contractor shall carry public
liability insurance covering claims
for injury, wrongful death, or
property damage, covering the period
of construction in an amount of not
less than $1,000,000.00 per
occurrence and in the amount of
$750,000.00 for property damage
insurance. Contractor shall also
carry, during the period of
construction, builder's risk
insurance on the improvements
against loss or damage by vandalism,
malicious mischief, fire and
extended insurance coverage. Said
insurance shall name Purchaser and
Seller and its Mortgagees, if any,
as loss payees under the policy and
provide that no act or omission of
Contractor shall operate to deny or
limit coverage to Purchaser, Seller,
and/or Seller's Mortgagee. The
policy shall be in an amount not
less than the full replacement value
of the improvements. Prior to the
commencement of the remodeling,
Contractor shall deliver to Seller
and Purchaser certificates of
liability and builder's risk
insurance required herein.
g. In the event that there is no
Closing, Seller shall not be
required to reimburse Purchaser for
any remodeling done prior to
Closing, and Purchaser shall remain
liable to Seller for any unpaid
remodeling costs.
4. The following sentence shall be added to
Paragraph 11 (old Paragraph 10):
"Until all the obligation of Rick's Cabaret
International, Inc., and RCI to Seller or
Xxxxxxxx under the Asset Purchase Agreement
or Xxxxxxx Money Contract are completed,
Purchasers will not receive a satisfaction
of the Exhibit D, Mortgage or termination of
the Exhibit E., Financing Statement."
5. Paragraph 20 (old Paragraph 19) shall be
deleted and replaced as follows:
"REMEDIES. If Seller defaults in the
performance of this Agreement and Purchaser
does not terminate this Agreement, Seller
acknowledges that the Property is unique and
that money damages to Purchaser in the event
of default by Seller are inadequate.
Accordingly, Purchaser shall have the right
to seek any other relief available at law,
and in addition to any other remedy
available at law, to apply for and to
receive from a court of competent
jurisdiction equitable relief by way of
restraining order, injunction or otherwise,
prohibitory or mandatory, to prevent a
breach of the terms of this Agreement, or by
way of specific performance to enforce
performance of the terms of this Agreement,
or by way or specific performance to enforce
performance of the terms of this Agreement
or rescission, plus reimbursement for costs,
including reasonable attorneys' fees,
incurred in the securing of such relief.
This right to equitable relief shall not be
construed to be in lieu of or to preclude
Purchaser's right to seek a remedy at law.
If Purchaser defaults in the performance of
this Agreement, Seller's sole and exclusive
remedy shall be to retain the $50,000.00
Xxxxxxx Money released and paid to him as
liquidated damages except that Seller shall
not be required to reimburse Purchaser for
any remodeling done prior to Closing."
B. To the extent that these Amendments to the Asset Purchase
Agreement and Xxxxxxx Money Contract cause any change,
addition, or deletion to any of the Exhibits herein, then the
parties agree that such Exhibits shall be modified prior to
Closing to conform to these Amendments.
C. Unless amended, added, or deleted by Article I. above or under
this Article III., all the remaining terms and conditions of
the Xxxxxxx Money Contract shall remain in full force and
effect according to its terms.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement and
these Amendments as of date first above written.
