Acquisition or Disposition of Assets On January 27, 1994, Foodmaker, Apollo Advisors, L.P. ("Apollo") and Green Equity Investors, L.P. ("GEI"), (collectively, the "Investors"), acquired Restaurant Enterprises Group, Inc. ("REGI"), a company that owns, operates and franchises various restaurant chains including El Torito, Carrows and Coco's. Contemporaneoulsy, REGI changed its name to Family Restaurants, Inc. ("FRI"). Concurrently, Foodmaker contributed its entire Chi-Chi's Mexican restaurant chain to FRI in exchange for a 39% equity interest in FRI, valued at $62 million, a five-year warrant to acquire 111,111 additional shares at $240 per share, which would increase its equity interest to 45%, and approximately $173 million in cash ($208 million less the face amount of Chi-Chi's debt assumed, aggregating approximately $35 million). Apollo and GEI contributed $91 million in cash and hold a 57% equity position in FRI. Management of FRI invested $7 million in cash and notes and holds a 4% equity position. A portion of the net cash received has been used by Foodmaker to repay all of the debt outstanding under its then existing bank credit facility, which has been terminated. It is expected that the balance of proceeds will be used to reduce other existing debt, to the extent permitted by the Company's financing agreements, and to provide funds for capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.

Grace or Foodmaker, as the case may be, shall indemnify the Company and defend and hold the Company harmless from and against any and all Losses that the Company may incur by reason of any other severance obligations relating to any person employed as of the Closing Date by the Company and the REG Subsidiaries on the one hand, or Chi-Chi's and the Chi-Chi's Subsidiaries on the other hand, including (without limitation) obligations arising under the agreements set forth on Schedule 6.4(d) hereof. For purposes of the WARN Act and this Agreement, the Closing Date is and shall be the same as the "effective date" within the meaning of the WARN Act. (e) From and after the dates hereof, Foodmaker shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates (other than Chi-Chi's and its Subsidiaries) to, own, license, lease, operate or franchise (collectively "Franchise") any restaurants under the "HomeTown Buffet" name or concept (collectively, "HB Restaurants")(i) in any region or territory in which the Company, Chi-Chi's or any of their respective Subsidiaries Franchises HB Restaurants or (ii) in any other region or territory (a "New Territory") unless in the case of this clause (ii), prior to Franchising any HB Restaurant, Foodmaker complies with this Section 6.4(e). Prior to entering into or commencing any Franchise of an HB Restaurant in a New Territory, Foodmaker shall deliver to the Company a written notice (a "Franchise Notice") specifying the New Territory and the material terms of such proposed Franchise and any related license, including, without limitation, franchise fees, royalties, exclusivity and duration. If the Company delivers to Foodmaker a written notice (an "Acceptance Notice") within 15 Business Days following the delivery of the Franchise Notice (the "Acceptance Period") stating that the Company desires to Franchise HB Restaurants in the New Territory, Foodmaker shall make available to the Company such Franchise, unless not permitted to do so, and Foodmaker shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) to Franchise HB Restaurants in such New Territory. If the Company shall not deliver the Acceptance Notice relating to a proposed Franchise to Foodmaker prior to the expiration of the Acceptance Period, Foodmaker may consummate the proposed Franchise in such New Territory; provided that the consummation thereof occurs during the 90 calendar day period immediately following the expiration of the Acceptance Period, upon terms no more favorable to Foodmaker than those set forth in the Franchise Notice. 6.5 REORGANIZATION PROCEEDINGS The Company and REG-M shall (a) seek confirmation of the Prepackaged Plan with a bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction in the state of Delaware using the acceptances of the Prepackaged Plan received by the Company pursuant to the Prepackaged Plan Solicitation on a hearing date agreed to among the Company and the Investors, (b) file a motion with such bankruptcy court seeking the approval by such bankruptcy court of this Agreement and the other Documents and request that such bankruptcy court hear such motion on a hearing date agreed to among the Company and the Investors, (c) comply in all material respects with the Bankruptcy Code and all other laws, rules, regulations, decrees and orders promulgated thereunder in connection with obtaining confirmation of the Prepackaged Plan, (d) use its best efforts to obtain, and refrain from taking any action that would be likely to prevent, materially impede or result in the revocation of, (i) the entry by such bankruptcy court of the Confirmation Order, (ii) the approval by such bankruptcy court of this Agreement and the other Documents in their entirety, (iii) a full and complete discharge of all debts of the Company and REG-M (to the fullest extent possible under Section 1141(d) of the Bankruptcy Code) proposed to be discharged in accordance with the Prepackaged Plan and (iv) the vesting upon the entry of the Confirmation Order of the property of the Company 32 in the reorganized Company and of REG-M in reorganized REG-M, in each case free and clear of all claims and interests of creditors and equity security holders to the extent proposed in accordance with the Prepackaged Plan, (e) not consent to any amendment or supplement to, or waiver or modification of, the Prepackaged Plan without the prior written consent of the Investors and (f) not waive the discharge of, or reinstate, or agree to the reinstatement of, or acknowledge or confirm, or reassume any debt of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that has been discharged by virtue of the confirmation of the Prepackaged Plan or any claim or interest extinguished with respect to the property vested in the reorganized Company. 6.6 CERTAIN TAX MATTERS On or prior to the Closing, Foodmaker and the Company shall enter into the Tax Sharing Agreement. 6.7 SECURITIES ACT; TRUST INDENTURE ACT (a) As promptly as practicable after the date hereof, the Company shall prepare, in accordance with all Applicable Law, the Registration Statement and all related documents necessary for the Notes Offering, in each case acceptable to each of the Investors.

SECTION 7. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION 7.1 INVESTOR INDEMNIFICATION (a) From and after the Closing each Investor shall, without limitation as to time, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of the other Investors, their respective directors and officers, and any person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties"), in each case to the fullest extent lawful, from and against any and all losses, claims, assessments, liabilities, damages, costs (including, without limitation, the costs of preparation and attorneys' fees) and expenses (including, without limitation, expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any Proceeding, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation in which any Indemnified Party is a party) or Proceeding in respect thereof (collectively, 33 "Losses" as incurred, relating to or arising out of (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Disclosure Documents or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which misstatement, alleged misstatement, omission or alleged omission is based solely upon and in conformity with information relating to such Investor furnished in writing by such Investor expressly for use in the Disclosure Documents or (ii) any inaccuracy in, or breach of, any of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such Investor in any of the Documents, in each case whether or not any Indemnified Party is a party to any Proceeding; provided, however, that no Investor shall be liable to any Indemnified Party for any Losses to the extent that it is finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal) that such Losses arose primarily from such Indemnified Party's willful misconduct or gross negligence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.1(a) shall only apply with respect to Losses incurred on or prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) each Investor shall be liable under this Section 7.1(a) with respect to any claim only to the extent that the sum of all Losses for which Indemnification is (or, but for the provisions of this clause (ii) could have been) sought from such Investor to the date of such claim exceeds $250,000 and (iii) the aggregate amount of Losses that an Investor shall be required to indemnify all Indemnified Parties from and against pursuant to this Section 7.1(a) shall not exceed $50 million. (b) No Investor shall consent to entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise seek to terminate any Proceeding in which any Indemnified Party is or could be a party and as to which indemnification or contribution could be sought by such Indemnified Party under this Section 7.1, unless such judgment, settlement or other termination includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release, in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, from all liability in respect of such Proceeding. (c) If the indemnification provided for in Section 7.1(a) is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses referred to therein or is insufficient to hold such Indemnified Person harmless (other than by reason of the limitations set forth therein), then the Investor providing such indemnification, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such Investor, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Investor, on the one hand, and any Indemnified Party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been taken by, or relates to information supplied by, such Investor, on the one hand, or such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent any such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.1(c) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 34 SECTION 8. TERMINATION 8.1 TERMINATION This Agreement may be terminated and the Restructuring Transactions may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date notwithstanding the fact that votes may have been received pursuant to the Prepackaged Plan Solicitation (provided that any such termination shall not relieve any party from liability for a breach of any provision hereof prior to such termination): (a) by the unanimous written consent of the Investors, Grace and the Company; (b) by any of the Investors if (i) a bankruptcy court of competent jurisdiction shall not have approved this Agreement and the Other Documents or any of the Restructuring Transactions in their entirety within sixty days of the filing of the Prepackaged Plan with such bankruptcy court or such later date as may be consented to by the Investors; (ii) any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Grace or any REG Entity contained in this Agreement or any of the other Documents shall have been breached in any material respect (other than those qualified by a materiality standard, which shall have been breached in any respect); (iii) the Company's board of directors fails to recommend or withdraws or materially modifies its recommendation of this Agreement, any of the Other Documents or the Restructuring Transactions; or (iv) any of the conditions provided for in Section 3.1 of this Agreement shall not have been satisfied (or waived in writing by the Investors) or the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the date ninety days after the date on which the Prepackaged Plan Solicitation commenced or such later date as may be consented to by the Investors; or (v) the distributions under the Prepackaged Plan shall not have been made on or prior to February 28, 1994 or such later date as may be consented to by the Investors; (c) by the Purchasers if (i) any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Foodmaker or any of its Subsidiaries contained in this Agreement or any of the other Documents shall have been breached in any material respect (other than those qualified by a materiality standard, which shall have been breached in any respect) or (ii) Foodmaker's board of directors fails to recommend or withdraws or materially modifies its recommendation of this Agreement; and (d) by the Company if, (i) any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of any of the Investors contained in this Agreement or any of the other Documents shall have been breached in any material respect (other than those qualified by a materiality standard, which shall have been breached in any respect) or (ii) Grace does not receive the distributions under the Prepackaged Plan to be received by it under the Prepackaged Plan on or prior to the later of the 180th day following the date on which the Company files a petition for relief under the Bankruptcy Code or the 30th day following the date on which the Confirmation Order becomes non-appealable or such later date as may be consented to by Grace. 8.2 EFFECT OF TERMINATION In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and have no effect and there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto; provided, however, that Section 2.4 hereof shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 35 SECTION 9.
