According to the Bojangles franchise agreement, what is the relationship between the Lease and the addendum?

Franchisee has entered into a Bojangles Franchise Agreement (the "Franchise Agreement") with Bojangles Opco, LLC ("Franchisor") for the operation of a Bojangles restaurant at the Premises, and as a requirement thereof, the lease for the Premises must contain the provisions contained in this Addendum.

Landlord and Franchisee agree that the terms contained herein shall supersede any terms to the contrary set forth in the Lease.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of mutual covenants set forth herein, the execution and delivery of the Lease, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Franchisee hereby agree as follows:

• 1. Landlord shall deliver to Franchisor a copy of any notice of default or termination of the Lease at the same time such notice is delivered to Franchisee.
• 1. Franchisee hereby assigns to Franchisor, with Landlord's irrevocable and unconditional consent, all of Franchisee's rights, title and interests to and under the Lease upon any termination, expiration, or non-renewal of the Franchise Agreement, but no such assignment shall be effective unless: (a) the Franchise Agreement is terminated, not renewed, or expires without renewal or Franchisor has exercised its option to purchase the Restaurant under the Franchise Agreement, as applicable; and (b) Franchisor notifies Franchisee and Landlord in writing that Franchisor assumes Franchisee's obligations under the Lease.
• 1. Franchisor shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon giving written notice of its election to Franchisee and Landlord, to cure any breach of the Lease and, if so stated in the notice, to also succeed to Franchisee's rights, title and interests thereunder.
• 1. Terms of the Lease that relate to or impact this Addendum may not be modified without Franchisor's prior written consent. The Lease may not be assigned by Franchisee without Franchisor's prior written consent.
• 1. Franchisee and Landlord acknowledge and agree that Franchisor shall have no liability or obligation whatsoever under the Lease unless and until Franchisor assumes the Lease in writing pursuant to Section 2 or Section 3, above.
• 1. If Franchisor assumes the Lease, as provided above, Franchisor may, without Landlord's prior consent, further assign the Lease to (a) an affiliate of Franchisor or as part of Franchisor's financing or refinancing of its assets; or (b) to an approved franchisee of Franchisor to operate the Bojangles restaurant at the Premises provided that the following

criteria are met: (a) Franchisor has an established franchising program for Bojangles restaurants; and (b) the proposed franchisee has met Franchisor's applicable requirements and has executed a franchise agreement with Franchisor. Upon such assignment to a franchisee of Franchisor, Franchisor shall be released from any further liability under the terms and conditions of the Lease.

• 1. Landlord and Franchisee acknowledge that if the Franchise Agreement expires (without renewal) or is terminated or not renewed, Franchisee is obligated to de-identify the Premises as a Bojangles restaurant, at its sole cost and expense. Landlord and Franchisee shall permit Franchisor, its employees or agents, to enter the Premises and remove signs (both interior and exterior), décor and materials displaying any marks, designs or logos owned by Franchisor in the event Franchisee fails to timely do so.
• 1. Franchisor, its affiliates, and their respective successors and assigns, are intended thirdparty beneficiaries of the provisions of this Addendum.

Copies of any default or termination notices under the Lease shall also be sent to Franchisor by overnight mail to 9432 Southern Pine Boulevard, Charlotte, NC 28273 Attn: Chief Legal Officer.
