Agreement, at the Closing (as hereinafter defined) Good

Stock shall be $100,000 in cash plus the negotiable
promissory note of Purchaser, RTC and RTC - Colo, made
jointly and severally, in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A (the "Promissory Note"). The principal amount of
the Promissory Note shall be $200,000 increased to the
extent, if any, that specified current liabilities of RTC
and RTC - Colo on September 30, 1995, exceed specified
current assets of RTC and RTC - Colo by less than $350,000.
For this purpose current liabilities and current assets of
RTC and RTC - Colo shall be determined as set forth on
Exhibit B hereto. To the extent that such specified current
liabilities of RTC and RTC - Colo on September 30, 1995,
exceed such specified current assets of RTC and RTC - Colo

portion of such liabilities equal to such excess. Any

restaurant, Good Times shall pay to RTC - Colo an amount
equal to the lesser of one-half of the cost of such
remodeling or $15,000.
1.3 Promissory Note.
(a) The Promissory Note shall bear interest at a
per annum rate equal to two percent below the prime lending
rate as printed in the Business Investors Daily determined
on the last day of each calendar quarter beginning with
September 30, 1995. Principal and interest of the Promissory
Note shall be paid in eighty equal quarterly installments on
the last day of each calendar quarter beginning with
December 31, 1995, with the amount of such equal
installments adjusted each calendar quarter if necessary to
reflect changes in the foregoing prime lending rate in order
to amortize the Promissory Note in equal installments over
the remaining quarterly installments. Not withstanding the
foregoing, all remaining principal and interest of the
Promissory Note shall be due and payable in full on
September 30, 2005.
(b) The obligation represented by the Promissory
Note shall be secured by a pledge in favor of Good Times of
the assets, including the leasehold interests, of the two

Mall, and at Southwest Plaza Mall in the Denver, Colorado
metropolitan area. Upon the request of Purchaser, and with
the approval of Good Times which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, Purchaser may substitute as security
other assets of equivalent value for the assets of such
restaurants. Good Times shall, upon the request of Purchaser
or RTC, subordinate the obligation represented by the
Promissory Note, but not the pledge of the foregoing assets,
if required by a lender to Purchaser, RTC or RTC - Colo, and
if the proceeds of such loan are to be utilized for capital
expenditures by RTC or RTC - Colo, provided that such
capital expenditure utilization with respect to which such
subordination shall occur shall not exceed $500,000 for each
Round The Corner Restaurant. In the event of such
subordination, upon any liquidation of Purchaser, RTC or
RTC - Colo, no payment shall be made to Good Times on the
Promissory Note, except from the proceeds of the security
therefor, until such senior loan has been paid (including
payment form the assets securing such senior loan).
(c) The obligation represented by the Promissory Note
shall be accelerated, and be due and payable in full
upon any failure to make any payment thereunder when
due or upon any failure of Purchaser, RTC or RTC - Colo
to comply with the terms of any other obligation of it
for borrowed money. Any default under a lease for the
assets of a pledged Round The Corner Restaurant or any
failure to exercise a renewal option within ninety
days of the termination of such lease (or to replace
the lease with a new lease on more favorable terms)
shall also constitute a default under, and resulting
the acceleration of, the Promissory Note.
