Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”),
and the persons listed on attached Schedule 1 (each a “Stockholder,” and

Recitals
WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Parent, Purchaser,
and Main Street Restaurant Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), have
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as it may be amended
from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which (a) Purchaser will make a
cash tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001
per share (the “Common Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement
(such offer as it may be amended from time to time as permitted under the Merger Agreement, the
“Offer”), and (b) Purchaser will be merged with and into the Company (the
“Merger”);
WHEREAS, as an inducement and a condition to Parent entering into the Merger Agreement,
pursuant to which the Stockholders will receive the consideration provided for in the Merger
Agreement upon conversion of the shares of Common Stock owned by the Stockholders, each Stockholder
has agreed to enter into this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined shall have the
same meanings in this Agreement as in the Merger Agreement.
Agreement
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency, and adequacy of
which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. Tender of Shares.
(a) Provided that the Offer is not amended in a manner prohibited by the Merger Agreement,
each Stockholder severally agrees to validly tender, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms
of the Offer, not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) calendar day
after the Offer commences, all shares of Common Stock owned by such Stockholder as of the date of
this Agreement and any shares of Common Stock hereafter acquired by such Stockholder (all such
shares owned as of the date hereof and all such shares hereafter acquired, the “Shares”)
and not to withdraw such tender. Each Stockholder hereby severally acknowledges and agrees that
Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment and pay for the Shares is subject to the terms and
conditions of the Offer and the Merger Agreement.
(b) Each Stockholder hereby severally agrees to permit Purchaser to publish and disclose in
the Offer Documents (and any other press release or announcement that
may be
issued in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement) and, if approval of the
stockholders of the Company is sought or given under applicable law, the Proxy Statement (including
all documents and schedules filed with the SEC), such Stockholder’s identity and intent with
respect to the Shares and the nature of such Stockholder’s commitments, arrangements, and
understandings under this Agreement.
2. Provisions Concerning Common Stock.
(a) Agreement to Vote. Each Stockholder hereby severally covenants and agrees that,
during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing until the earlier of (i)
the termination of the Merger Agreement and (ii) the Effective Time (such period, the “Voting
Period”), at any meeting of the holders of the Common Stock of the Company, however called, and
at any adjournment thereof, and in connection with any written consent, vote, or approval of the
holders of any Common Stock, such Stockholder shall vote or give a written consent of (or cause to
be voted or written consent to be given) all of his, her, or its Shares, now or hereafter acquired
(the “Stockholder’s Shares”) (A) in favor of the Merger and the adoption and approval of
the Merger Agreement, the terms thereof, the transactions contemplated thereby, and any actions
required or reasonably requested by Parent in furtherance thereof, (B) against any action,
transaction, or agreement that would result in a breach in any material respect of any covenant or
agreement of the Company under the Merger Agreement, and (C) against any Acquisition Proposal other
than the Merger and against any proposed action or transaction that could reasonably be expected to
impede, frustrate, nullify, prevent or materially delay consummation of the Merger or is otherwise
in any material respect inconsistent therewith. Each Stockholder by this Agreement agrees that
such Stockholder shall not enter into any voting or other agreement or understanding with any
person the effect of which would be to violate the provisions, covenants, and agreements contained
in this Section 2.
(b) Grant of Irrevocable Proxy. Each Stockholder hereby severally and irrevocably
grants to, and appoints, Purchaser and any designee of Purchaser, and each of them individually,
such Stockholder’s proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution,
for and in the name, place, and stead of such Stockholder, to vote or act by written consent during
the Voting Period with respect to such Stockholder’s Shares in accordance with Section 2(a). This
proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of each Stockholder under this Agreement.
Each Stockholder affirms that this proxy is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable
during the Voting Period. Each Stockholder shall severally take such further action or execute
such other instruments as may be necessary or reasonably requested by Parent to effectuate the
intent of this proxy. THE AUTHORITY GRANTED HEREUNDER SHALL BE (I) IRREVOCABLE DURING THE VOTING
PERIOD, AND (II) DEEMED TO BE COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST SUFFICIENT IN LAW AS REQUIRED BY SECTION 212
OF THE DGCL.
(c) Other Proxies Revoked. Each Stockholder severally represents and warrants that
any proxies heretofore given in respect of such Stockholder’s Shares are not irrevocable, and that
all such proxies have been or are hereby revoked except that Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx is subject to certain
notification requirements and voting restrictions pursuant to the Marital Settlement Agreement,
dated November 21, 2003, between Xxxx X. Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx.

3. Option Shares.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Stockholder hereby
severally grants to Parent an option (each, an “Option,” and collectively, the
“Options”) to purchase, in whole but not in part, such Stockholder’s Shares at a purchase
price per share equal to the Merger Price in cash.
(b) Parent may exercise an Option, in whole but not in part, at any time and from time to
time, if and only if such Stockholder shall have breached Section 1 or Section 2 of this Agreement.
If an Option becomes exercisable, such Option may be exercised at any time prior to December 31,
2006.
(c) In the event that Parent wishes to exercise an Option, it shall send to the Stockholder
who granted such Option a written notice (the date of which is referred to as the “Notice
Date”) to that effect which notice shall also specify a date not earlier than three (3)
business days nor later than ten (10) business days from the Notice Date for the closing of such
purchase (the “Option Closing Date”); provided, however, that (i) if the closing of the
purchase and sale pursuant to such Option (an “Option Closing”) cannot be consummated by
reason of any applicable judgment, decree, order, law, or regulation, the period of time that
otherwise would run pursuant to this sentence shall run instead from the date on which such
restriction on consummation has expired or been terminated and (ii) without limiting the foregoing,
if prior notification to or approval of any Governmental Entity is required in connection with such
purchase or any other transaction contemplated hereby, Parent and such Stockholder shall promptly
file the required notice or application for approval and shall cooperate in the expeditious filing
of such notice or application, and, in the case of any prior notification or approval required in
connection with such purchase, the period of time that otherwise would run pursuant to this
sentence shall run instead from the date on which, as the case may be, (A) any required
notification period has expired or been terminated or (B) any required approval has been obtained,
and in either event, any requisite waiting period has expired or been terminated. The place of the
Option Closings shall be at the offices of Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx,
00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or such other place as the parties may agree.
(d) At each Option Closing, Parent (or its designee) shall pay to the Stockholder an amount
equal to the product of (i) the Merger Price and (ii) the number of such Stockholder’s Shares
subject to purchase pursuant to such Stockholder’s Option. Such payment shall be in immediately
available funds by wire transfer to a bank account designated in writing by such Stockholder.
(e) Parent hereby represents that the shares of capital stock purchased by Parent pursuant to
the Options will be acquired for investment only and not with a view to any public distribution
thereof, and Parent shall not offer to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares so acquired by it in
violation of the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
(f) At each Option Closing, simultaneously with the delivery of the amount specified in
Section 3(d), each Stockholder shall severally deliver to Parent (or its designee) a certificate or
certificates representing such Stockholder’s Shares to be purchased at the Option
3
Closing duly endorsed or with executed blank stock power attached, all of which shares of such
Stockholder’s Shares shall be free and clear of all liens, claims, charges, and encumbrances of any
kind whatsoever, except for such encumbrances or proxies in favor of Parent arising under this
Agreement.

severally, and not jointly, represents and warrants to Parent and Purchaser (as to such

its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, reorganization, fraudulent

enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).
(b) Ownership of the Shares. Such Stockholder is the record and beneficial owner of,
and has good and marketable title to, such Stockholder’s Shares listed beside such Stockholder’s

disposition, and sole power to agree to all of the matters set forth in this Agreement, in each

acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions, or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage,
4
indenture, license, contract, commitment, arrangement, understanding, agreement, or other
instrument or obligation of any kind to which such Stockholder is a party, or (C) violate any
order, writ, injunction, decree, judgment, statute, rule, or regulation applicable to such

breach, or default would not materially impair the ability of such Stockholder to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(d) No Finder’s Fees. Except as disclosed pursuant to the Merger Agreement, no
broker, investment banker, financial advisor, or other person is entitled to any broker’s,
finder’s, financial advisor’s, or other similar fee or commission in connection with the

except as may be required by the Exchange Act or the HSR Act, require any filing with, or permit,

lapse of time or both) a default (or give
rise to any right of termination, amendment, cancellation, or acceleration) under any of the

Stockholder’s Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any of

Stockholder’s fiduciary duties solely with respect to such capacity.

(f) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of
this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law
but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal,
or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such
invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any
provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed, and enforced in
such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision or portion of any
provision had never been contained in this Agreement.
(g) Specific Performance. Each of the parties recognizes and acknowledges that a
breach by it of any covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the other
parties to sustain damages for which they would not have an adequate remedy at law for money
damages, and therefore each of the parties agrees that, in the event of any such breach, the
aggrieved party shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants and
agreements and injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it
may be entitled at law or in equity.
(h) Remedies Cumulative. All rights, powers, and remedies provided under this
Agreement or otherwise available in respect of this Agreement at law or in equity shall be
cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the
simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power, or remedy by such party.
(i) No Waiver. The failure of any party to exercise any right, power, or remedy
provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect of this Agreement at law or in
equity, or to insist upon compliance by any other party with its obligations under this Agreement,
and any custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms of this Agreement shall not
constitute a waiver by such party of its right to exercise any such or other right, power, or
remedy or to demand such compliance.
8
(j) No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is not intended to be for the
benefit of, and shall not be enforceable by, any person who or which is not a party to this
Agreement.
(k) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be deemed a contract made under, and for all
purposes shall be construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Delaware without
regard to principles of conflicts of law.
(l) Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings used in this Agreement are
inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the
meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
(m) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to
this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of
this Agreement.
9. Termination. This Agreement and the covenants and agreements set
forth in this Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) any termination of the
Merger Agreement, and (b) the Effective Time.
