1. Representations and Warranties. To induce the Bank to enter into this Agreement and to agree to make and/or to continue the Loans described in Section 4 hereof, the Borrower makes the following representations and warranties:

(a) Existence. The Borrower is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing as a corporation under the laws of the State of Ohio, and each Subsidiary (as hereinafter defined) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. The Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign

corporation and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified by the Borrower or the Subsidiary would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects or financial condition. "Subsidiary" for purposes hereof means any corporation or other entity, the majority of the voting stock of which is owned, directly or indirectly, beneficially or of record, by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or which is otherwise controlled, directly or indirectly, by the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

(b) Authority. The Borrower and each Subsidiary has full power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as such business is now being conducted, and the Borrower has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform under this Agreement, the Notes (as hereinafter described) and all other documents and instruments executed in connection with or otherwise relating to this Agreement or the Loans (as hereinafter defined) (collectively, the "Loan Documents").

(c) Borrowing Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents: (i) have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action; (ii) do not and will not violate (A) any provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation, (B) any order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or other agency of government, (C) the Articles of Incorporation or Code of Regulations or other organizational or governing documents of the Borrower, or (D) any provision of any agreement (including, without limitation, any agreement with stockholders) to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party or subject, or by which it or any of its properties or assets are bound; (iii) do not and will not result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of the properties or assets of the Borrower or any Subsidiary; and (iv) do not and will not require any consent, approval or other action by or any notice to or filing with any court or administrative or governmental body. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

(d) Financial Information and Reports. Exhibit A to this Agreement is a complete list of the financial statements and projected financial statements furnished by the Borrower to the Bank in connection with the borrowings to be made hereunder. Each such historical financial statement fairly presents in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the results of their operations as of the date (or with respect to the period) noted in such financial statements. Other than any liability incident to any actions described in Exhibit B to this Agreement, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has any material contingent liabilities required to be disclosed under generally accepted accounting principles wh ch are not provided for or disclosed in such financial statements. Each such statement (including any related schedule and/or notes) is true, correct and complete in all material respects (subject, as to interim statements, to changes resulting from audits and year-end adjustments) and has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently followed throughout the periods involved. No such statement omits to state a material fact necessary to make such statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it was made. There has been no material adverse change in the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or any Subsidiary since the date of such financial statements.

(e) Indebtedness. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has any Indebtedness (as hereinafter defined) other than Permitted Indebtedness (as hereinafter defined), or has guaranteed the obligations of any other person (except (i) by endorsement of negotiable instruments payable on sight for deposit or collection or similar banking transactions in the usual course of business and (ii) obligations arising from ground leases as permitted under Section

2(j)(v)), and to the best of the Borrower's knowledge after diligent investigation, there exists no default under the provisions of any instrument evidencing any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or of any agreement relating thereto. "Indebtedness" as used herein means all indebtedness for borrowed money which in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles would be considered as a liability, all rental obligations under leases required to be capitalized under generally accepted accounting principles ("Capital Leases"), all guarantees and other contingent obligations in respect of, or obligations to purchase or otherwise acquire, Indebtedness of others, and Indebtedness of others secured by any lien on property owned by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, whether or not the Borrower or such Subsidiary has assumed such Indebtedness.

(f) Actions. There is no action, suit, investigation or proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary before any court, arbitrator or administrative or governmental agency except for those described in Exhibit B to this Agreement, none of which might result in any material adverse change in the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, nor, to the best of the Borrower 's knowledge after diligent investigation, is there any basis for any such action which might result in such a material adverse change.

(g) Title to Property. The Borrower and each Subsidiary has good and marketable title to its real properties (other than properties which it leases as lessee) and good title to all of its other properties and assets, including the properties and assets reflected in the most recent balance sheet described in Exhibit A hereto (other than properties and assets disposed of in the ordinary course of business since the date thereof), free and clear of all liens, mortgages, pledges, security interests, encumbrances or charges of any kind, including any agreement to give any of the foregoing, any conditional sale or other title retention agreement or any lease in the nature thereof (each, a "Lien"), other than the following (each, a "Permitted Lien"): (i) Liens described on Exhibit C hereto; (ii) leases required under generally accepted accounting principles to be capitalized on the Borrower 's or such Subsidiary's books ("Capitalized Leases") so long as there is no violation of any of the Financial Covenants set forth on Exhibit D hereto; (iii) Liens in favor of the Bank; and (iv) purchase money Liens and Liens arising from seller provided financing to the extent such Liens secure purchase money Indebtedness or seller provided financing and so long as such Liens attach only to the assets purchased or acquired and the proceeds thereof and so long as all such financing and Indebtedness is Permitted Indebtedness. The Borrower and each Subsidiary is in undisturbed possession under all leases necessary in any material respect for the operation of its business, and no such leases contain any unusual or burdensome provisions which might materially affect or impair the Borrower's or the Subsidiary's operations thereunder. All such leases are valid and in full force and effect.

(h) Employee Benefit Plans. To the best of the Borrower's knowledge after diligent investigation, no "reportable event" or "prohibited transaction," as defined by the

Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") has occurred or is continuing, as to any plan of the Borrower or any of its affiliates which poses a threat of taxes or penalties against or termination of such plans (or trusts related thereto). Neither the Borrower nor any of its affiliates has violated in any material respect the requirements of any "qualified pension benefit plan," as defined by ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or done anything to create any material liability under the Multi-Employee Pension Plan Amendment Act. Neither the Borrower nor any of its affiliates has incurred any material liability to the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation (the "PBGC") in connection with such plans, including, but not limited to, any "funding deficiency" (as defined by ERISA).

(i) Purpose of Loans. Proceeds of the Revolving Loan shall be used to fund temporary working capital needs and general corporate purposes. The Construction Loans shall be used only for the purpose of financing the construction and opening and/or the refurbishing of Big Boy Restaurants (collectively, the "Restaurants"). The Stock Repurchase Loan was used only for the purpose of financing the repurchase of Borrower's shares of stock from its shareholders. The Existing Construction Term Loans financed the construction and opening and/or the refurbishing of the Restaurants. The Revolving Loan, Construction Loans, Stock Repurchase Loan and the Existing Construction Term Loans are collectively referred to herein as the "Loans". None of the Loans are nor shall be secured, directly or indirectly, by any stock for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock or for any purpose which would violate either Regulation U, 12 C.F.R. Part 221, or Regulation X, 12 C.F.R. Part 224, promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

G) Compliance. The Borrower and each Subsidiary is in compliance in all material respects with all laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations and orders of any governmental entity (including, but not by way of limitation, any such laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations and orders related to ecology, human health and the environment) applicable to it.

(k) Adverse Contracts and Conditions. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to any contract or agreement, or subject to any charge, restriction, judgment, decree or order, materially and adversely affecting its business, property, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, nor a party to any labor dispute. There are no restrictions applicable to any Subsidiary which might limit its ability to pay dividends or make loans to the Borrower.

(1) Taxes. The Borrower and each Subsidiary has filed all federal, state and local tax returns and other reports which it is required by law to file, has paid all taxes, assessments and other similar charges that are due and payable, other than taxes, if any, being contested by the Borrower or a Subsidiary in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and has withheld all employee and similar taxes which it is required by law to withhold.

Each of the Construction Loan draws hereunder shall be in the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) or a multiple thereof.

By not later than the six (6) month anniversary of the 1st day of the calendar month immediately after the date that the Borrower receives an advance from the Bank of Construction Loan proceeds (except in the case of such an advance made on the 1st day of a calendar month, in which event the deadline shall be the six (6) month anniversary of such advance), the Borrower shall convert the outstanding principal balance of such Construction Loan advance to a term loan with a maturity date that is not less than seven (7) years nor greater

If the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan at any time exceeds the Total Revolver Commitment Amount, the Borrower shall immediately, without notice or demand, reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan such that the Total Revolver Commitment Amount is not exceeded.

Upon request by the Borrower, the Bank may consider extensions of the Revolver Commitment Termination Date, but is not hereby committing in any way thereto.

(i) Construction Loan. Interest on each advance of the Construction Loans hereunder (prior to conversion to a Construction Term Loan) shall accrue at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR Rate Margin (as hereinafter defined) plus the 1, 2, or 3 month LIBOR rate (as selected by the Borrower) and quoted by the Bank from Telerate Page 3750 or any successor thereto (which shall be the LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to (A) commencement of the advance or (B) the end of each Loan Period (as hereinafter defined)), adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation (a "LIBOR Rate Loan").

The term "New York Banking Day" means any day (other than a Saturday or

Sunday) on which commercial banks are open for business in New York, New York.

In the event the Borrower does not timely select an interest rate option at least two New York Banking Days before the end of the Loan Period for a Construction Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan, the funds advanced under such Construction Loan shall, beginning on the first day of the new Loan Period, accrue interest at the 1 month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to commencement such Loan Period.

The term "Loan Period" means the period commencing on the advance date (or the Conversion Date) of the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan and ending on the numerically corresponding day 1, 2, or 3 months thereafter matching the interest rate term selected by the Borrower; provided, however, (A) if any Loan Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a New York Banking Day, then the Loan Period shall end on the next succeeding New York Banking Day unless the next succeeding New York Banking Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the Loan Period shall end on the immediately preceding New York Banking Day; or (B) if any Loan Period begins on the last New York Banking Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of the Loan Period), then the Loan Period shall end on the last New York Banking Day of the calendar month at the end of such Loan Period.

The term "Interest Differential" shall mean that sum equal to the greater of zero or the financial loss incurred by the Bank resulting from prepayment, calculated as the difference between the amount of interest the Bank would have earned (from like investments in the Money Markets as of the first day of the LIBOR Rate Loan) had prepayment not occurred and the interest the Bank will actually earn (from like investments in the Money Markets as of the date of prepayment) as a result of the redeployment of funds from the prepayment. Because of the short-term nature of the LIBOR Rate Loans, the Borrower agrees that the Interest Differential shall not be discounted to its present value. Any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in an amount equal to the remaining entire principal balance of such loan. The term "Money Markets" refers to one or more wholesaling funding markets available to and selected by the Bank, including negotiable certificates of deposit, commercial paper, Eurodollar deposits, bank notes, federal funds, interest rate swaps, or others.

Interest on each advance of the Revolving Note hereunder shall accrue at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR Rate Margin plus at the 1 month LIBOR rate quoted by the Bank from Telerate Page 3750 or any successor their, which shall be that one-month LIBOR rate in effect to New York Banking Days prior to the beginning of each calendar month, adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation, such rate to be reset at the beginning of each succeeding month. If the initial advance under this Note occurs other than on the first day of the month, the initial 1 month LIBOR rate shall be that 1 month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking

Days prior to the date of the initial advance; such 1-month LIBOR rate to be reset at the beginning of each succeeding month (the "Revolving Note LIBOR Rate;" provided, however, the Borrower may elect at any time to the convert all or any portion of the outstanding advances of the Revolving Note to a LIBOR Rate Loan as set forth in Section 4(b)(i). In the event the Borrower does not timely select an interest rate option at least two New York Banking Days before the end of the Loan Period for outstanding advances of the Revolving Note that are a LIBOR Rate Loan, such outstanding advances, shall, beginning on the first day of the new Loan Period, accrue interest at the Revolving Note LIBOR Rate.

The principal balance of the Stock Repurchase Loan and interest accrued thereon shall be repaid by the Borrower to the Bank by consecutive monthly payments in the amount of $13,492.33 each on the first day of each calendar month, having commenced on August 1, 2011, and by a final payment on July 1, 2018 in the amount of the unpaid principal and interest balance of the Stock Repurchase Loan. No repayment or prepayment of the Stock Repurchase Loan by the Borrower shall be reason for any relending or additional lending of the Stock Repurchase Loan to the Borrower.

All payments of principal and interest hereunder shall be made in immediately available funds to the Bank at such place as may bb designated by the Bank to the Borrower in writing. The Bank is authorized by the Borrower to enter from time to time the balance of the Loans and all payments and prepayments thereon on the reverse of the Notes or in the Bank's regularly maintained data processing records, and the aggregate unpaid amount of the Loans set forth thereon or therein shall be presumptive evidence of the amount owing to the Bank and unpaid thereon. Upon request and payment by the Borrower of a reasonable fee which compensates the Bank for the cost of issuing the same, the Bank shall provide the Borrower with a statement showing all payments and prepayments on the Loans.

(d) Changes in Laws and Circumstances; Illegality. In the event of (A) any change in the reserve requirements and/or the assessment rates of the FDIC which are applicable to the Bank in making any or all of the Loans or (B) any change in circumstances affecting the interbank market, or (C) any adoption of any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rules, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) or any change in the interpretation, promulgation, implementation or administration thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with interpretation or administration thereof, including, without limitation, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives in connection with Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued, and the result of any such event described in clause (A), (B), or (C) above is to increase the costs to the Bank of making the Loans, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Bank any additional amounts, upon demand accompanied by a reasonably detailed statement as to such additional amounts (which statement shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), which will reasonably compensate the Bank for such costs.

(i) If by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank market adequate and reasonable means do not exist in the reasonable judgment of the Bank for ascertaining the rate of interest for a LIBOR Rate Loan or Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan at any time, the Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower. Unless and until such notice has been withdrawn by the Bank, the Borrower may not thereafter elect to have any portion of the Loans bear interest at a LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, as applicable.

(ii) If any law, rule, regulation, treaty, guideline, order or directive or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for the

Loans to bear interest at a LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, the Bank shall notify the Borrower thereof and no portion of the Loans may thereafter bear interest at a LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, as applicable. If required by law, any portion of the Loans then bearing interest at a LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, as applicable, shall cease to bear interest at the LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, as applicable, and shall bear interest based on the Prime Rate. The "Prime Rate" is the rate announced from time to time by the Bank as its prime rate. The Prime Rate is determined solely by the Bank pursuant to market factors and its own operating needs and is not necessarily the Bank's best or most favorable rate for corporate, commercial, or other loans.

(e) Prepayments. The Borrower may, at its option, from time to time repay or prepay part or all of the outstanding principal balance of the Loans bearing interest based on the Prime Rate or the Revolving Note LIBOR Rate without premium. The Borrower may, at its option, from time to time repay or prepay part or all of the outstanding principal balance of any of the Revolving Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Rate and/or the Construction Loans at the end of a Loan Period without premium.

I

If any LIBOR Rate Loan (including, without limitation, any advances of

Revolving Loans that Borrower has elected to be a LIBOR Rate Loan) is prepaid prior to the end of the Loan Period for such loan, whether voluntarily or because prepayment is required due to such loan's maturing or accelerating upon default or otherwise, the Borrower agrees to pay all of the Bank's costs, expenses, and Interest Differential (as determined by the Bank) incurred as a result of such prepayment. Because of the short-term nature of this facility, the Borrower agrees that the Interest Differential shall not be discounted to its present value. Any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in an amount equal to the remaining entire principal balance of such loan.

There shall be no prepayments of any Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan, provided that the Bank may consider requests for its consent with respect to prepayment of any Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan, without incurring an obligation to do so, and the Borrower acknowledges that in the event that such consent is granted, the Borrower shall be required to pay the Bank, upon prepayment of all or part of the principal amount of a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan before final maturity, a prepayment indemnity ("Prepayment Fee") equal to the greater of zero, or that amount, calculated on any date of prepayment ("Prepayment Date"), which is derived by subtracting: (a) the principal amount of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan or portion of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan to be prepaid from (b) the Net Present Value of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan or portion of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan to be prepaid on such Prepayment Date; provided, however, that the Prepayment Fee shall not in any event exceed the maximum prepayment fee permitted by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to the conversion of a Construction Period Construction Loan to a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan, the Bank and the Borrower mutually agree that the Cost of Funds-Based Rate will include a premium as payment to the Bank for waiver by the Bank of any Prepayment Fee (determined by the Bank in its sole discretion) over the then applicable Cost of Funds-Based Rate and such premium is expressly described in the applicable Note, then the Borrower may prepay such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan without incurring a Prepayment Fee. If the Borrower initially elects less than a 12 year maturity for a Construction Term Loan or an Existing Construction Term Loan that is also a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan and later the

Borrower exercises its option to extend the maturity up to 12 years from the Construction Conversion Date (or with respect to an Existing Construction Term Loan, from the date of issuance of such Existing Construction Term Loan), if the Borrower did not pay a premium to the Bank for waiver by the Bank of any Prepayment Fee at the Construction Conversion Date (or with respect to an Existing Construction Term Loan, at the date of issuance of such Existing Construction Term Loan), then the Borrower will be subject to a Prepayment Fee at the time the Borrower elects to extend the maturity date of such Construction Term Loan or Existing Construction Term Loan; provided, however, the Bank shall waive any Prepayment Fee that would otherwise apply to any Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan issued on or after September 1,

2007 and prior to October 21, 2010.

"Net Present Value" shall mean the amount which is derived by summing the present values of each prospective payment of principal and interest which, without such full or partial prepayment, could otherwise have been received by the Bank over the remaining contractual life of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan. The individual discount rate used to present value each prospective payment of interest and/or principal shall be the Money Market Rate at Prepayment for the maturity matching that of each specific payment of principal and/or interest.

"Money Market Rate At Prepayment" shall mean that zero-coupon rate, calculated on the Prepayment Date, and determined solely by the Bank, as the rate at which the Bank would be able to borrow funds in Money Markets for the prepayment amount matching the maturity of a specific prospective Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan payment date, adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation. A separate Money Market Rate at Prepayment will be calculated for each prospective interest and/or principal payment date.

In calculating the amount of such Prepayment Fee, the Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower to make such assumptions regarding the source of funding, redeployment of funds, and other related matters, as the Bank may deem appropriate. If the Borrower fails to pay any Prepayment Fee when due, the amount of such Prepayment Fee shall thereafter bear interest as a LIBOR Rate Loan until paid at the default rate specified in this Agreement (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed). Any prepayment of principal shall be accompanied by a payment of interest accrued to date thereon; and said prepayment shall be applied to the principal installments in the inverse order of their maturities. All prepayments shall be in an amount of at least $100,000 or, if less, the remaining entire principal balance of the applicable Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan.

No partial prepayment of any of the Loans shall change any due date or the amount of any regularly-scheduled installment of principal thereof.

(f) Unused Credit Fee. The Borrower shall pay the Bank an unused credit fee in an amount equal to one quarter of one percent (.25%) per annum times the daily average of (a) the unused Total Revolver Commitment Amount plus (b) the unused Construction Loan Commitment Amount (the "Unused Credit Fee"), which fee shall be payable quarterly, in arrears, having commenced on the first day of December, 1998, and on the first day of each March, June, September and December thereafter, and when the Loans are due (whether by

reason of acceleration or otherwise). The Unused Credit Fee shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days but applied to the actual number of days elapsed.

5. Events of Default. If any of the following events (each, an "Event of Default") shall occur, then the Bank may, without further notice or demand, accelerate the Loans and declare them to be, and thereupon the Loans shall become, immediately due and payable (except that the Loans shall become automatically due and payable upon the occurrence of an event described in Sections S(j), (k) and (l) below), and, to the extent that (a) the Total Revolver Commitment Amount, (b) the Construction Loan Commitment Amount, and/or (c) any other Loan proceeds have not yet been used or fully drawn on by the Borrower, terminate any obligation of the Bank to disburse the balance of same; and the Bank shall have all rights provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise provided by law to realize on any collateral or security for the Loans:

(a) The Borrower does not pay the Bank any interest on the Loans within ten (10) days after the date due, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise, or does not pay or repay to the Bank any principal of the Loans or any other obligation hereunder when due, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise; or

(b) The Borrower defaults in the performance or observance of any agreement contained in Section 2(b), 2(c), 2(d), 2(e), 2(0, 2(g), 2(h) or 2(o) hereof and such default has not been cured by the Borrower within ten (10) days after the occurrence thereof, or the Borrower defaults in the performance or observance of any other agreement contained in Section 2 hereof; or

(c) There shall have occurred any other violation or breach of any covenant, agreement or condition contained herein or in any other Loan Document which has not been cured by the Borrower within thirty (30) days after the earlier to occur of the date the Borrower has knowledge thereof and the date the Bank gives the Borrower notice thereof; or

(d) The Borrower does not pay when due or prior to the expiration of the applicable cure period, if any, any principal or interest on any other Indebtedness in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), or the Borrower defaults in the performance or observance of any other term or condition contained in any agreement or instrument under which such Indebtedness is created, and the holder of such other Indebtedness declares, or may declare, such Indebtedness due prior to its stated maturity because of the Borrower's default thereunder; or

(e) There shall have occurred any violation or breach of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in any other agreement between the Borrower and the Bank which has not been cured by the Borrower prior to the expiration of the applicable cure period, if any; including, without limitation, that certain Continuing Reimbursement Agreement dated May

16, 2013 by and between the Borrower and the Bank, as may be amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time; or

(f) The Borrower does not perform its obligations under any agreement material to its business, and the other party to such agreement declares, or may declare, such agreement in default; or

(g) Any representation or warranty made herein or in any other Loan Document or writing furnished in connection with this Agreement shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made; or

(h)     The Borrower is generally not paying its debts as they become due; or

(i) With respect to the plans referred to in Section l(h) above, or any other similar plan, a "reportable event" or "prohibited transaction" pursuant to ERISA has occurred which results in the imposition of material taxes or penalties against the Borrower or the termination of such plans (or trusts related thereto), or the Borrower incurs any material liability to the PBGC in connection with such plans; or

(j) The Borrower makes an assignment of a material part of its assets for the benefit of creditors; or

(k) The Borrower applies for the appointment of a trustee or receiver for a material part of its assets or commences any proceedings relating to the Borrower under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of debt, dissolution or other liquidation law of any jurisdiction; or any such application is filed, or any such proceedings are commenced, against the Borrower, and the Borrower indicates its approval, consent or acquiescence thereto; or an order is entered appointing such trustee or receiver, or adjudicating the Borrower bankrupt or insolvent, or approving the petition in any such proceedings, and such order remains in effect for sixty (60) days; or

(l) Any order is entered in any proceedings against the Borrower decreeing the dissolution of the Borrower; or

(m) Any material part of the Borrower's operations shall cease, other than temporary or seasonal cessations which are experienced by other companies in the same line of business and which would not have a material adverse effect on the Borrower's operations or financial condition or its ability to perform its obligations hereunder; or

(n) Any final non-appealable judgment which, together with other outstanding judgments against the Borrower, causes the aggregate of such judgments in excess of confirmed insurance coverage satisfactory to the Bank to exceed Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000), shall be rendered against the Borrower; or

(o) Any event of default occurs under any other agreement to which the Borrower and the Bank are parties or under any document or instrument running to the benefit of the Bank from the Borrower.

The above recitation of Events of Default shall be interpreted in all respects in favor of the Bank. To the extent any cure-of-default period is provided above, the Bank may

nevertheless, at its option pending completion of such cure, suspend its obligation to consider further disbursement of the Loans hereunder.

$ Cincinnati, Ohio

1,

XXXXXX'X RESTAURANTS, INC., an Ohio corporation (the "Borrower"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association formerly known as Firstar Bank, N.A. and Star Bank, National Association (the "Bank"), or it successors or assigns, on or before 1, (the "Maturity

Terms used herein shall have the same meanings as in the Loan Agreement.

The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to percent ( _%). Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days but applied to the actual number of days elapsed.

The Borrower shall make monthly payments of principal and interest on this Note in the amount of Dollars ($ , with each such payment being applied first to accrued interest and then to principal, commencing on the first day of ,     and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, at which time the outstanding principal balance of and all interest on this Note shall be due and payable in full.

At the option of the Bank, (a) prior to acceleration of this Note, in the event that any interest on or principal of this Note remains unpaid past thirty (30) days of the date due, and/or (b) upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or upon the acceleration of this Note, interest (computed and adjusted in the same manner, and with the same effect, as interest on this Note prior to maturity) on the outstanding balance of this Note shall be payable on demand at the rate that would otherwise be in effect for such Loans from time to time as set forth in the Loan

Agreement plus an additional three percent (3%) per annum up to any maximum rate permitted by law, in all cases until paid and whether before or after the
