Each Seller will provide Buyer and its representatives with prompt access to such books, records, employees and auditors of such Seller as Buyer may reasonably request in order to verify the determination of the Estimated Adjustment Amount.

(b) The “Adjustment Amount” may be a positive or negative number and shall mean the amount by which the Aggregate Net Working Capital transferred to the Buyer at the First Closing is more (i.e. less negative) or less (i.e. more negative) than ($1,362,476), which is a negative number. “Aggregate Net Working Capital” shall mean the sum of the amount of Net Working Capital for each of the Sellers. “Net Working Capital” shall mean, with respect to each Seller, (i) the amount of the Inventory, Till Cash and Prepaid Expenses shown on the Closing Date Balance Sheet and included in the Purchased Assets, less (ii) the amount of the accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued utilities, accrued rent payable, gift certificates and gift cards included in the Assumed Liabilities.

(c) If the Estimated Adjustment Amount is negative (that is, the Aggregate Net Working Capital transferred to the Buyer at the First Closing is less (i.e. more negative) than ($1,362,476)), the Consideration shall be decreased dollar for dollar by the absolute value of the Estimated Adjustment Amount. If the Estimated Adjustment Amount is positive (that is, the Aggregate Net Working Capital transferred to the Buyer at the First Closing is more (i.e. less negative) than ($1,362,476)), there shall be no adjustment to the Consideration.

(d) All calculations pursuant to Section 2.7 and 2.8 shall be determined assuming that all Purchased Assets (including the Designated Purchased Assets) and all Assumed Liabilities (including the Designated Assumed Liabilities) are transferred as of the First Closing Date.

2.8 Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) As soon as practicable following the First Closing Date (but not later than 30 days after the First Closing Date), the Sellers’ Representative shall deliver to the Buyer the final Closing Date Balance Sheet for each Seller, a determination of the actual Adjustment Amount (the “Actual Adjustment Amount”) and a determination of the Post-Closing True-Up (as defined below), together with such supporting documentation and other data as is reasonably necessary to substantiate such determinations. All accounting calculations and terms shall be in accordance with GAAP and, to the extent not in

violation of GAAP, consistently applied with the Year End Balance Sheet. For purposes of this Section 2.8, the Buyer shall be entitled to have reasonable access to the books and records and work papers of each of the Sellers and their representatives used in preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheets and shall be entitled to discuss such books and records and work papers with each of the Sellers, their representatives and those persons responsible for the preparation thereof.

(b) The “Post-Closing True-Up” may be a positive or negative number and shall be an amount equal to the Actual Adjustment Amount less the Estimated Adjustment Amount.

(c) If the Post-Closing True-Up is positive, then the Buyer shall deliver an amount of cash equal to the amount of the Post-Closing True-Up to the Sellers’ Representative, payable by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. funds in accordance with the written payment instructions furnished by the Sellers’ Representative prior to the First Closing Date, provided, however that no amounts shall be paid by the Buyer pursuant to this provision if the Estimated Adjustment Amount is positive and provided further, that the amount paid by the Buyer pursuant to this provision shall not exceed the absolute value of the Estimated Adjustment Amount. If the Post-Closing True-Up is negative, then the Sellers shall deliver an amount of cash equal to the absolute value of the Post-Closing True-Up to the Buyer, payable by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. funds in accordance with the written payment instructions furnished by the Buyer to the Sellers, provided however, that if the Estimated Adjustment Amount is positive, no amounts shall be paid by the Sellers pursuant to this provision except to the extent the absolute value of the Post-Closing True-Up exceeds the Estimated Adjustment Amount. Any such payment of cash required pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be deemed to be an adjustment to the Purchase Price and shall be made by acknowledgment of the Parties within two business days after the Closing Date Balance Sheet is deemed final and conclusive pursuant hereto.

(d) In the event that the Buyer reasonably disagrees with the any amounts reflected on the final Closing Date Balance Sheet or the determination of the Post-Closing True-Up, the Buyer shall so inform the Sellers’ Representative in writing within 15 days of the Buyer’s receipt thereof, such writing to set forth the objections of the Buyer in reasonable detail. If the Sellers’ Representative and the Buyer cannot reach agreement as to any disputed matter relating to the Post-Closing True-Up within 15 days after notification by the Buyer to the Sellers’ Representative of a dispute, they shall forthwith refer the dispute to an independent accounting firm to be agreed upon by the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative (the “Independent Accountant”) for resolution, with the understanding that such Independent Accountant shall resolve all disputed items within 20 days after such disputed items are referred to it. All costs of the review by the Independent Accountant shall be shared equally by the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative. The decision of the Independent Accountant with respect to all disputed matters relating to the Post-Closing True-Up shall be deemed final and conclusive and shall be binding upon the Sellers and the Buyer. If the Buyer does not object to the Closing Date Balance Sheet (and the amount of Post-Closing True-Up calculated thereby) within the 15-day period referred to above, the amount of the Post-Closing True-Up, as determined by the Closing Date Balance Sheet as so prepared, shall be deemed final and conclusive and binding upon the Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative.

No right of any of the Buyer Group for indemnification hereunder shall be affected by any examination made for or on behalf of the Buyer or the acceptance by the Buyer of any certificate or opinion.

9.2 Indemnification.

(a) Each Seller agrees, severally and to the extent of such Seller’s Allocated Percentage, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer and its Affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, stockholders and employees (collectively, the “Buyer Group”) against any Adverse Consequences that any member of the Buyer Group may suffer, sustain or become subject to as the result of, or arising from or in connection with:

(i) the breach by such Seller of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, any other Document or in any exhibit, schedule or attachment hereto or thereto or in any certificate delivered by such Seller in connection herewith or therewith;

(ii) any Liability, other than Assumed Liabilities, relating to the ownership or operation of such Seller’s Restaurants and/or such Seller’s Purchased Assets at any time prior to the applicable Closing;

(iii) any Excluded Liability of such Seller; and

(iv) any Taxes of such Seller (other than ad valorem taxes imposed on the Purchased Assets for periods after the applicable Closing);

(b) The Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers and their respective successors, assigns, managers, officers, directors, stockholders, members and employees (collectively, the “Seller Group”) against any Adverse Consequences which they may suffer, sustain or become subject to as the result of, arising from or in connection with:

For avoidance of doubt, neither the Threshold nor the Cap shall apply to the Sellers’ indemnification obligations for Adverse Consequences based on Section 9.2(a)(ii), (iii) or (iv).

(d) In no event shall any Seller’s liability to indemnify the Buyer Group as provided in Section 9.2 exceed an amount equal to such Seller’s Allocated Percentage of the Cap.

9.3 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) If any third party shall notify any Party to this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against any other Party to this Agreement (the “Indemnifying Party”) under Section 9.2, then the Indemnified Party shall notify each Indemnifying Party thereof promptly; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying any Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability or obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced by the delay. Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (A) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within 15 days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party is electing to defend the Indemnified Party in respect of the Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party suffers resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, (B) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, and (C) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently. The Indemnified Party may participate in the defense of such claim with co-counsel of its choice; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (A) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (B) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and

employ counsel as provided herein or (C) a claim shall have been brought or asserted against the Indemnifying Party as well as the Indemnified Party, and there may be one or more factual or legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are in conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party, in which case such co-counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not be required to pay the fees and expenses of more than one separate principal counsel (and any appropriate local counsel) for all Indemnified Parties. If, within such 15-day period, the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such matter or fails to defend the matter in the manner set forth above, the Indemnified Party may defend against the matter in any manner that it reasonably may deem appropriate and may consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to the matter or enter into any settlement with respect to such matter, with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically for the costs of defending against such claim (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the claim to the fullest extent provided herein.

(b) If an Indemnified Party’s notice of indemnification does not relate to a claim or the commencement of an action or proceeding by a third party, the Indemnifying Party shall have 15 days after receipt of such notice to object to the subject matter and the amount of the claim for indemnification set forth in such notice by delivering written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not so object within such 15-day period, it shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to the matters set forth in such notice of indemnification. If the Indemnifying Party sends notice to the Indemnified Party objecting to the matters set forth in such notice of indemnification, the Parties shall use their best efforts to settle such claim for indemnification. If the Parties are unable to settle such dispute, then the Indemnified Party shall seek resolution of the dispute by initiating litigation in any jurisdiction in which litigation arising under this Agreement may be commenced by the Parties hereto.

(c) The Parties recognize and acknowledge that a breach by any Seller of this Section 9.3 will cause irreparable and material loss and damage to the Buyer as to which the Buyer will not have an adequate remedy at law or in damages. Accordingly, each such Party acknowledges and agrees that the issuance of an injunction or other equitable remedy is an appropriate remedy for any such breach.

(d) Non-exclusivity. The Parties hereby agree that the foregoing provisions of this Article IX shall not be the sole and exclusive means of recovery of a Party hereto or any other Person entitled to indemnification under this Article IX, and shall not preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies available to a Party hereto or any other Person hereunder at law or in equity, and shall be in addition to any other rights or remedies to which a Party hereto or any other Person entitled to indemnification under this Article IX and his, her or its assigns, as the case may be, may be entitled at law or in equity.

9.4 Change of Name. Within thirty (30) days after the First Closing Date (with respect to Washington Robins) and within thirty (30) days after the Second Closing Date, or as soon as practicable, if the Second Closing Date does not occur, (with respect to South Sound and Northwest Robins), such Seller shall change its name to delete the use of the name “Robin”, “Red Robin” and similar or derivative names. Immediately upon the First Closing (with respect to Washington Robins) or the Second Closing, or as soon as practicable, if the Second Closing Date does not occur, (with respect to South Sound and Northwest Robins), the Sellers shall cease using the name “Robin”, “Red Robin” and similar or derivative names in all of their activities and thereafter, the Sellers agree not to use “Robin” or “Red Robin” in connection with any business or commercial activity. In the event the Second Closing does not occur, South Sound and Northwest Robins may continue to use the name “Robin”, “Red Robin” and similar or derivative names only in connection with the ownership and operation of its Designated Restaurant.

9.5 Transaction Expenses.

(a) The Buyer shall pay all of its expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions contemplated hereby. The Sellers shall pay all of their expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions contemplated hereby. This provision shall not limit any Party’s right to include expenses in any claim for damages against any other Party who breaches a legally binding provision of the Documents.

(b) In no event shall the Buyer be liable for any income, capital gain, franchise or other similar Tax arising or imposed as a result of the transactions contemplated herein, and the Sellers shall pay all transfer, stamp (including documentary stamp taxes, if any) and other similar Taxes or governmental charges with respect to the Transactions herein contemplated.

(i) amend or waive any provision hereof (including any condition to Closing) in any manner that does not differentiate in any material respect among any of the Sellers;

(ii) employ, obtain and rely upon the advice of legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors as the Sellers’ Representative, in the sole discretion thereof, deems necessary or advisable in the performance of the duties of the Sellers’ Representative;

(iii) receive and receipt for any portion of the Purchase Price or any other payment due from Buyer to such Seller pursuant to this Agreement and act for such Seller with respect to all Purchase Price matters and all Purchase Price adjustment matters referred to herein, including, without limitation, taking all actions contemplated by Section 2.7 and 2.8 with respect to the Net Working Capital, and disbursing to each Seller his, her or its share of such amounts in accordance with this Agreement;

(iv) incur any expenses, liquidate and withhold assets received on behalf of such Seller prior to their distribution to such Seller to the extent of any amount that the Sellers’ Representative deems necessary for payment of or as a reserve against expenses, and pay such expenses or deposit the same in an interest-bearing bank account established for such purpose;

(v) give and receive all notices, communications and deliveries under this Agreement and make any objections permitted to be made under this Agreement on behalf of such Seller; and

(vi) do or refrain from doing any further act or deed on behalf of such Seller that the Sellers’ Representative deems necessary or appropriate, in the sole discretion of the Seller Representative, relating to the subject matter hereof as fully and completely as such Seller could do if personally present and acting and as though any reference to such Seller herein was a reference to the Sellers’ Representative.

(b) The appointment of the Sellers’ Representative shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable, and any other Person may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any action of the Sellers’ Representative as the act of each Seller in all matters referred to herein. Each Seller hereby ratifies and confirms all that the Sellers’ Representative shall do or cause to be done by virtue of the Seller Representatives’ appointment as Sellers’ Representative of such Seller. The Sellers’ Representative shall act for each Seller on all of the matters set forth herein in the manner the Sellers’ Representative believes to be in the best interest of such Seller, but the Sellers’ Representative shall not be responsible to any Seller for any loss or damage such Seller may suffer by reason of the performance by the Sellers’ Representative of the Seller Representative’s duties hereunder, other than loss or damage arising from willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of the Seller Representative’s duties hereunder.

(c) Each Seller hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that the Sellers’ Representative is authorized to act on behalf of such Seller notwithstanding any dispute or disagreement, and that any Person shall be entitled to rely on any and all action taken by the Sellers’ Representative hereunder without liability to, or obligation to inquire of, any Seller. In the event the Sellers’ Representative resigns or ceases to function in such capacity for any reason whatsoever, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, the Sellers shall appoint a successor sellers’ representative. The Sellers shall indemnify and hold the Sellers’ Representative harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, costs, damages and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred or suffered as a result of the performance of the Seller Representative’s duties hereunder, except for willful misconduct or gross negligence.

9.7 Further Assurances; Transition Assistance. Each of the Parties agrees that it will from time to time on or after each Closing promptly do, execute, acknowledge and deliver and will cause to be done, executed, acknowledged and delivered, all such further acts, deeds, certificates, bills of sale, assignments, transfers, conveyances, powers of attorney, assurances and other documents as may be reasonably requested by any of the other Parties for better assigning, transferring, granting, conveying, assuring and conferring right, title and interest to the Buyer of the Purchased Assets and for the better assumption by the Buyer of the Assumed Liabilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties agree to cooperate with each other and to provide each other with all information and documentation reasonably necessary to permit the preparation and filing of all federal, state, local, and other Tax returns and Tax elections with respect to the Restaurants. For a period of seven years following the First Closing Date, the Sellers will maintain all books and records used or compiled in connection with the operation of the Restaurants, including, without limitation, all records of electronic communication, and shall provide Buyer or its representatives with prompt access to such books and records as Buyer may reasonably request in order to operate the Restaurants in the ordinary course of business.

9.8 Allocation Ad Valorem Taxes. The Sellers shall pay any Liability for ad valorem taxes and assessments (including any special or supplemental assessments) on the Purchased Assets allocable to periods ending on or before the applicable Closing Date (without regard to when such taxes are assessed or payable). For purposes of this Section 9.8, in the case of any ad valorem taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a tax period that includes (but does not end on) the applicable Closing Date, the portion of such tax related to the tax period ending on the applicable Closing Date will be deemed to be the amount of such tax for the entire tax period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the tax period ending on the applicable Closing Date and the denominator

of which is the number of days in the entire tax period. If the Parties are unable to determine the exact amount of taxes for proration at the applicable Closing, or if the taxes or assessments for periods ending on or before the applicable Closing Date are reassessed subsequent to the applicable Closing, the Parties will make the appropriate financial adjustments at the time the assessment is determined.

9.9 Conduct After Closing.

(a) For a period of 18 months after the Second Closing Date (or the First Closing Date, if the Second Closing Date does not occur) (the “Post-Closing Period”), each Seller shall continue in good standing under its jurisdiction of formation and shall maintain at all times a Net Worth equal to or greater than the Minimum Aggregate Net Worth multiplied by such Seller’s Allocated Percentage. “Net Worth” for each Seller shall be (i) the amount of such Seller’s cash, cash equivalents and Permitted Investments (as defined in the Escrow Agreement), in each case only to the extent such assets are free and clear of all Liens, minus (ii) the amount of such Seller’s Liabilities. “Minimum Aggregate Net Worth” shall mean (x) $2,000,000, for the period beginning on the Second Closing Date and ending on the one-year anniversary of the Second Closing Date, or (y) $1,000,000, plus the amount of any pending claims or demands by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement, but in any event no more than $2,000,000, for the period beginning on the day immediately following the one-year anniversary of the Second Closing Date; provided that if this Agreement is terminated between the First Closing and the Second Closing, the amounts above shall be reduced from $2,000,000 to $1,596,000 and from $1,000,000 to $798,000, and the periods of time set forth in clause (x) and (y) above shall instead accrue from the First Closing Date.

(b) No later than 5 business days after the end of each calendar month during the Post-Closing Period, each Seller shall deliver to the Buyer a certificate signed by an officer of such Seller, certifying the amount of such Seller’s Net Worth as of the last day of the preceding calendar month. The certificate shall be accompanied by such Seller’s balance sheet and other supporting documentation as Buyer may reasonably request in order to confirm such Seller’s determination of its Net Worth. If any Seller (i) fails to deliver the officer’s certificate and supporting documentation required pursuant to this Section 9.9(b) and such failure continues uncured for 5 business days after receiving notice from the Buyer or (ii) fails at any time to maintain the amount of Net Worth prescribed in Section 9.9(a), then such Seller shall immediately transfer to the Escrow Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the Minimum Aggregate Net Worth multiplied by such Seller’s Allocated Percentage. Amounts deposited with the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Section 9.9(b) shall constitute “Escrow Funds,” as defined in the Escrow Agreement and shall be paid to the Buyer or reimbursed to the Seller in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

(c) The Sellers shall not conduct any business activities following the First Closing other than activities in connection with the performance of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement and the other Documents or as necessary in connection with the prompt payment, discharge and performance of all Excluded Liabilities.
