items for the Composite Properties for the
applicable prior twelve (12) month
operating period:

Borrower shall preserve and maintain the
Property in good repair, working order and
condition, excepting ordinary wear and
tear, and shall not commit or permit the
commission of waste against the Property.
Borrower will promptly inform Lender of

permit no modification, compromise or
substitution for the Property without the
prior consent of Lender.
3.12. Payment of Taxes; Discharge of Liens.
3.12.1. Borrower shall pay when due,
and before any interest, collection fees
or penalties accrue, all taxes,
assessments, encumbrances, liens,
mortgages, water or sewer charges and
other charges and impositions
(collectively, "Impositions") levied,
assessed or existing with respect to the
Property, or any part of it, and Borrower
shall deliver to Lender receipts showing
payment of the Impositions. If Borrower
fails to pay any of the Impositions,
Lender, at its option, may pay such
Impositions and the monies paid shall be a
lien upon the Property, added to the
amount secured by this Mortgage, and
payable immediately by Borrower to Lender
with interest at the higher of (i) the
interest rate, if any, charged by the
particular entity levying or assessing the
Impositions, or (ii) the highest rate
charged by Lender on any of the
Indebtedness (but in either case not to
exceed the maximum interest rate permitted
by law). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Borrower shall have the right and ability
to contest any Impositions and no Event of
Default hereunder shall be deemed to have
occurred so long as Borrower is contesting
such Impositions in good faith and by
appropriate proceedings and has
effectively stayed enforcement of such
Impositions.
3.12.2. Following Borrower's failure to
pay any such Impositions on two (2) or
more occasions during the term of the
Note, at the option of Lender, Borrower
shall pay to Lender, in advance on the
first day of each month, a pro rata
portion (as determined by Lender) of all
Impositions levied, assessed or existing
on the Property. In the event that sufficient funds have
been deposited with Lender to cover the
amount of these Impositions when they
become due and payable, Lender shall pay
them. In the event that sufficient funds
have not been deposited to cover the
amount of these Impositions at least
thirty (30) days prior to the time when
they become due and payable, Borrower
shall immediately pay the amount of the
deficiency to Lender. Lender shall not be
required to keep a separate account or to
pay Borrower any interest on the funds
held by Lender for the payment of the
Impositions pursuant to this Section 3.10
or for the payment of insurance premiums
under Section 3.14 below, or on any other
funds deposited with Lender in connection
with this Mortgage. The funds on deposit
with Lender are further security for the
Indebtedness and if an Event of Default
occurs under this Mortgage, any funds
remaining on deposit with Lender may be
applied against the Indebtedness at any
time after the Event of Default occurs,
and without notice to Borrower.
3.13. Sale or Transfer.
3.13.1 Borrower shall not transfer,
sell, assign, or modify all or any

under the Property Lease may enter into a
collateral assignment or other agreement
regarding the Property Lease or such
tenant's interest thereunder with Chase
Bank of Texas, National Association, as
Administrative Agent; provided, that any
such collateral assignment or other
agreement (i) has been approved in writing
by Lender in its reasonable discretion,
(ii) is expressly subordinate to Lender
pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement of even
date herewith between Lender and Chase Bank of
Texas, National Association, as
Administrative Agent, and (iii) shall
not at any time be recorded, nor shall
a memorandum thereof at any time be recorded without
the prior written consent of Lender.
3.13.2 0.2 Sale or TransferBorrower

owned by Quality Dining, Inc., an
Indiana corporation ("Guarantor") until
the earlier of (i) the satisfaction of
this Mortgage, or (ii) consummation of a
Transfer Event in accordance with
Section 3.13.3 below.
3.13.3 Except as provided below,
Borrower shall not consummate a Transfer
Event without the prior written consent
of Lender (the "Transaction Consent").
As used herein, "Transfer Event" means
(i) the sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of
Borrower, (ii) a merger or consolidation
of Borrower into another corporation or
entity or (iii) the sale or transfer of
fifty percent (50%) or more of
Borrower's stock.
3.13.3.1 "Transfer Event" shall not
include any sale, transfer, merger,
consolidation or other event or
circumstance if, after consummation
thereof, Borrower is wholly owned,
directly or indirectly, by Guarantor.
3.13.3.2 The Transaction Consent shall
not be required if all of the following
conditions (the "Transfer Requirements")
are met: (i) the Property shall be used
only as it was used prior to such
Transfer Event; (ii) the combined net
worth of Borrower, the acquiring
corporation (or entity) or surviving
corporation (or entity) (as the case may
be) of such Transfer Event (the
"Transferee"), the Guarantor (unless the
Guarantor has been or will be released
from its Guaranty of the Property Lease
upon consummation of the Transfer Event
in accordance with Section 3.13.3.3
below) and any other substitute or
additional guarantors of the Property
Lease, if any, immediately after the
Transfer Event is not less than Fifty
Million Dollars ($50,000,000) determined
on a pro forma basis assuming
consummation of the Transfer Event;
(iii) the Transferee shall guarantee the
Property Lease and all other leases
between the tenant under the Property

rating of any securities issued in
connection with any securitization
involving the Note or the Loan Documents
as confirmed in writing by an
appropriate rating agency reasonably
acceptable to the Lender, (v) the
Transferee and Borrower shall be,
directly or indirectly, under common
ownership immediately upon consummation
of the Transfer Event,
(vi) Borrower shall have provided
written notice of the Transfer Event to
Lender not less than sixty (60) days
prior to the consummation of the
Transfer Event which notice shall be
accompanied by such documentation and
information reasonably necessary to
facilitate Lender's determination that
the Transfer Requirements have been
satisfied (and Borrower shall furnish
such supplemental information and
documentation reasonably requested by
Lender), and(vii) Borrower agrees to pay
for all reasonable costs and expenses
(including attorney's fees) in
connection with Lender's review of the
proposed Transfer Event (including the
cost, if any, of confirmation by the
rating agency).
3.13.3.3 If all the requirements of
Section 3.13.3.2 above are satisfied and
if the minimum net worth requirement
specified in clause (ii) thereof is
satisfied without reference to
Guarantor's net worth, then Guarantor
shall be released from its obligations
under the Guaranty with respect to the
Property Lease upon consummation of the
Transfer Event.
3.13.3.4 Borrower, Lender and Guarantor
agree to execute and deliver, without
additional consideration, any and all
documents, amendments, confirmations and
agreements reasonably necessary to
effectuate the intent of Section 3.13
above.

3.14.2. Policy Form.
Borrower shall obtain all policies of
insurance required by Section 3.14.1
from insurance companies having an A.M.
Best rating of A- or better which are
qualified to do business in the
jurisdiction where the Property is
situated. All such policies shall be
issued in the names of Landlord and
Borrower, Lender as additional insured
and loss payee, and if requested by
Lender, any mortgagee or beneficiary of
Lender, as additional insureds. In
addition, all such policies providing
coverage for physical damage include
loss payee and mortgagee endorsement in
favor of Lender and Lender's mortgagee
or beneficiary, respectively and as
applicable. The Borrower shall cause
copies of such policies of insurance or
originally executed certificates thereof
to be delivered to Lender prior to
Borrower's execution of this Mortgage,
and not less than 30 days prior to any
renewal thereof. As often as any such
policy shall expire or terminate,
Borrower shall procure and maintain
renewal or additional policies with like
terms. None of such policies shall
contain any co-insurance requirements
and all such policies shall provide for
written notice to Lender and any
mortgagee or beneficiary of Lender not
less than 10 days prior to any
modification, cancellation, lapse, or
reduction in the amounts of insurance,
and shall further provide that any loss
otherwise payable thereunder shall be
payable notwithstanding any act or
negligence of Lender or Borrower which
might, absent such provision, result in
a forfeiture of all or part of the
payment of such loss. All general
liability, property damage, and other
casualty policies shall be written on an
occurrence basis as primary policies,
not contributing with or in excess of
coverage which Lender may carry.
3.14.3. Borrower's obligations to
carry the insurance provided for above
may be brought within the coverage of an
"umbrella" policy or policies of
insurance carried and maintained by
Borrower; provided, however, that such
policy or policies shall (i) have limits
of not less than $5,000,000, (ii) name
Lender and any mortgage or beneficiary
of Lender as additional insureds as
their interests may appear, and (iii)
provide that the coverage afforded
Lender will not be reduced or diminished
by reason of the use of such blanket
policies. Borrower agrees to permit
Lender at all reasonable times to
inspect any policies of insurance of
Borrower which Borrower has not
delivered to Lender.
3.14.4. Should Borrower fail to insure
or fail to pay the premiums on any
required insurance or fail to deliver
the policies or renewals as provided
above, Lender may have the insurance
issued or renewed (and pay the premiums
on it for the account of Borrower) in
amounts and with companies and at
premiums as Lender deems appropriate. If
Lender elects to have insurance issued
or renewed to insure Lender's interest,
Lender shall have no duty or obligation
of any kind to also insure Borrower's
interest or to notify Borrower of
Lender's actions. Any sums paid by
Lender for insurance, as provided above,
shall be a lien upon the Property, added to the amount
secured by this Mortgage, and payable
immediately by Borrower to Lender, as
the case may be, with interest on those
sums at the highest rate charged by
Lender on any of the Indebtedness (but
not to exceed the maximum interest rate
permitted by law).
3.14.5. In the event of loss or damage
to the Property equal to or in excess of
$100,000, the proceeds of all required
insurance shall be paid to Lender. In
the event of loss or damage to the
Property in an amount less than
$100,000, the proceeds of all required
insurance shall be paid to Borrower. No
loss or damage shall itself reduce the
Indebtedness. Lender or any of its
employees is each irrevocably appointed
attorney-in-fact for Borrower and is
authorized to adjust and compromise each
loss without the consent of Borrower, to
collect, receive and receipt for the
insurance proceeds in the name of Lender
and Borrower and to endorse Borrower's
name upon any check in payment of the
loss.
3.14.6. Borrower and Lender shall
apply such proceeds to the repair and
restoration of the Property subject to
the following conditions:
(a) there shall be no Event of Default
existing hereunder;
(b) plans for repair and restoration shall
be reviewed and approved by Lender, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed;
(c) repair and restoration of the Property
to a viable, economic unit (as determined
by Lender) can practicably be completed
prior to the Due Date set forth in the
Note;
(d) Borrower shall have deposited with
Lender funds equal to the
positive difference, if any, between the
cost of repair, restoration and completion,
and the amount of the insurance
proceeds; and
(e) disbursements will be made by Lender
or, at Lender's option, a title insurance
company acceptable to Lender, pursuant to
procedures necessary or appropriate to keep
the Property free of mechanics' liens and
to ensure that funds are properly applied.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
that any loss or damage to the Property exceeds
fifty percent (50%) of the then
appraised value of the Property,
Borrower may elect to repair and restore
the Property as set forth above or to
prepay all amounts owing to Lender under
the Note, without prepayment premium.
Provided that no Event of Default
exists, if there are insurance proceeds
in the amount of Twenty-Five Thousand
Dollars ($25,000) or less remaining
after the repair and restoration of the
Property as required hereunder, such
proceeds shall be paid to Borrower.
Provided that no Event of Default
exists, if there are insurance proceeds
in excess of $25,000 but less than the
greater of (i) Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000), or (ii) ten percent (10%) of
the then remaining unpaid principal
balance of the Note, remaining after the
repair and restoration of the Property
as required hereunder, such proceeds
shall be applied toward payment of the
principal of the Indebtedness so that no
prepayment premium or other charges
shall be payable with respect to such
amounts; provided, that such application
of proceeds shall not excuse Borrower
from making the regular scheduled
installment payments nor shall such
application extend or reduce the amount
of any of these payments but rather
shall reduce the number of these
payments in reverse order of maturity.
Provided that no Event of Default
exists, if there are insurance proceeds
equal to or in excess of the greater of
(i) Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), or
(ii) ten percent (10%) of the then
remaining unpaid principal balance of
the Note, remaining after the repair and
restoration of the Property as required
hereunder, such proceeds shall be
applied toward payment of the
Indebtedness so that no prepayment
premium or other charges shall be
payable with respect to such amounts and
each monthly installment thereafter
shall be reduced to an amount which will
amortize the then unpaid principal
balance of the Note at the nondefault
rate over the then remaining term of the
Note.
3.14.7. Notwithstanding Section 3.14.6
above, if a substantial portion (fifty
percent [50%] or more) of the Property
is damaged or destroyed during the last
twenty-four (24) months of the term of
the Note, and provided that no Event of
Default then exists hereunder, either
Borrower or Lender may elect not to
rebuild and to apply the insurance
proceeds toward payment of the
Indebtedness (or any portion thereof)
without premium, whether or not then due
and payable, in reverse order of
maturity. Application of proceeds by
Lender toward later maturing
installments of the Indebtedness shall
not excuse Borrower from making the
regularly scheduled installment payments
nor shall such application extend or
reduce the amount of any of these
payments. Any proceeds in excess of the
Indebtedness shall be promptly paid to
Borrower.
3.14.8. In the event of a foreclosure
of this Mortgage, or the giving of a
deed in lieu of foreclosure, the
purchaser or grantee of the Property
shall succeed to all of the rights of
Borrower under the insurance policies
including, without limit, any right to
unearned premiums and to receive the
proceeds.
3.14.9. Upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default hereunder, at the
option of Lender, Borrower shall pay to
Lender, in advance on the first day of
each month, a pro rata portion of the
annual premiums due (as estimated by
Lender) on the required insurance. In
the event that sufficient funds have
been deposited with Lender to cover the
amount of the insurance premiums when
the premiums become due and payable,
Lender shall pay the premiums. In the
event that sufficient funds have not
been deposited with Lender to pay the
insurance premiums at least thirty (30)
days prior to the time when they become
due and payable, Borrower shall
immediately pay the amount of the
deficiency to Lender.
3.15. Compliance With Law and Other Matters.
Borrower shall, in all material
respects, comply with all federal, state
and local laws, ordinances, rules,
regulations and restrictions relating to
the ownership, use, occupancy and
operation of the Property. Borrower
shall be solely responsible to apply for
and secure any building permit or
permission of any duly constituted
authority for the purpose of doing any
of the things which Borrower is required
or permitted to do under the provisions
of this Mortgage. Borrower shall comply
with, perform Borrower's obligations
under, and enforce the obligations of
all other parties to all building and
use restrictions, ground leases, leases,
reservation and/or purchase agreements,
condominium documents and/or other
instruments affecting or relating to the
use and/or occupancy of the Property.
Borrower has not received any written
notice of, and, to the knowledge of
Borrower, neither Borrower nor the
Property are in material violation of
any law, municipal ordinance or other
requirement of any governmental
authority. The Property is legally
occupied by Borrower, and all required
certificates of occupancy, building
permits, certificates of environmental
impact approval, all zoning, building,
housing, safety, fire and health
approvals and all permits and licenses
required by any governmental authority
and necessary to operate, occupy or use
the Property for the purposes permitted
under this Mortgage have been issued,
are unexpired, and, without cost or risk
to Lender, are hereby collaterally
assigned, to the extent assignable, to
Lender.
3.16. Alteration of Improvements.
3.16.1. Without the prior written
consent of Lender, Borrower shall not
remove any building, structure or other
improvement forming a material part of
the Property.
3.16.2. Borrower may from time to time
make alterations, replacements,
additions, changes and improvements
(collectively, "Alterations") in and to
the Property as Borrower may find
necessary or convenient for its purposes; provided,
however, that no such Alterations shall
decrease the value of the Property or
impair the structural integrity of any
building comprising a part of the
Property. All work with respect to any
Alteration shall be done in a good and
workmanlike manner by properly qualified
and licensed personnel, and such work
shall be diligently prosecuted to
completion.
3.16.3. Borrower shall pay the costs
of any Alterations done on the Property.
Borrower shall indemnify and defend
Lender from and against any liability,
loss, damage, costs, attorneys' fees and
any other expense incurred as a result
of claims of lien by any person
performing work or furnishing materials
or supplies for Borrower or any person
claiming under Borrower.
3.16.4. No Alterations shall be
undertaken until Borrower shall have
procured and paid for all required
permits and authorizations of all
governmental authorities having
jurisdiction. Any Alterations where the
applicable building codes require the
submission of architectural plans shall
be conducted under the supervision of a
licensed architect or engineer selected
by Borrower and reasonably satisfactory
to Lender and shall be made in
accordance with detailed plans and
specifications and cost estimates
prepared by such architect or engineer
and approved in writing in advance by
Lender, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned. Any Alterations involving
an estimated cost in excess of One
Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars
($100,000) shall be made in accordance
with reasonable plans and specifications
and cost estimates prepared by Borrower
and approved in writing in advance by
Lender, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned. Any Alterations shall be
made promptly and in a good workmanlike
manner and in compliance with all
applicable permits and authorizations
and building, zoning and other laws and
in accordance with the orders, rules and
regulations of the Board of Fire
Insurance Underwriters and any other
body hereafter exercising similar
functions.
3.17. Obligation to Rebuild.
3.17.1.If any portion of the Property is
damaged or destroyed by fire or other
casualty, subject to Section 3.14 above,
Borrower shall, at its sole cost and
expense, forthwith repair, restore,
rebuild or replace the damaged or
destroyed improvements, fixtures or
equipment, and complete the same as soon
as reasonably possible, to the condition
they were in prior to such damage or
destruction, except for such changes in
design or materials as may then be
required by law or the franchisor of the
Franchised Operation, or are approved by
Lender in Lender's reasonable
discretion. Lender, in such event,
shall, to the extent the proceeds of the
insurance are made available to Lender,
reimburse Borrower for the costs of
making such repairs, restoration,
rebuilding and replacements on such
terms as Lender may reasonably require.
To the extent, if any, that the proceeds of
insurance made available to Borrower are
insufficient to pay the entire cost of
making such repairs, restoration,
rebuilding and replacements, Borrower
shall pay the amount by which such costs
exceed the insurance proceeds made
available to Borrower.
0.00.0.Xx the event that Borrower fails
to commence the repair or restoration of
the Property pursuant to this Section
3.17 within sixty (60) days after the
casualty, or if Borrower abandons or
fails to diligently pursue completion of
such repair or restoration, then Lender
shall be entitled to apply the insurance
proceeds first towards reimbursement of
all costs and expenses of Lender in
collecting the proceeds (including,
without limit, court costs and
reasonable attorneys' fees), and then
toward any payment of the Indebtedness
or any portion of it, whether or not
then due or payable.

expense, immediately cease or cause
cessation of such use or operations and

indemnity obligation shall survive the
expiration or termination of this Mortgage.

fails to comply with any of the
foregoing requirements of this Section,
after the expiration of the cure period
permitted under the Environmental Laws,
if any, Lender may, but shall not be
obligated to (i) elect that such failure
constitutes an Event of Default under
this Mortgage; and/or (ii) take any and
all actions, at Borrower's sole cost and
expense, that Lender deems necessary or
desirable to cure any such
noncompliance. Borrower shall reimburse
Lender for any costs incurred by Lender

subsection within fifteen (15) days
after receipt of a xxxx therefor.
