Site Development (§7.3)

The Manual includes generic prototype plans for a Restaurant as well as our standards and specifications for the design, layout, equipping and trade dress for a Restaurant. You must hire a licensed and bonded architect to prepare initial design plans for the construction of your Restaurant and leasehold improvements.

Once approved, your architect must prepare detailed construction plans that: (a) are consistent with the approved design plans; (b) satisfy all required standards and specifications in the Manual; and (c) comply with all federal, state and local ordinances, building codes, permit and lease requirements and restrictions applicable to the premises. You must submit the final construction plans to us for approval. Once approved, you must construct and equip your Restaurant according to the approved construction plans and the requirements of the Manual. You must purchase (or lease) and install the Technology Systems, equipment, fixtures, signs and other items we require.

We may require you to periodically remodel and refurbish your Restaurant to conform to our then-current standards and specifications. We will not impose this requirement during the last 12 months of the term of your Franchise Agreement except as a condition to renewal or transfer of your franchise rights. There are no other limitations on the cost or frequency of these remodeling and refurbishment obligations. You may not remodel or significantly alter your premises without our prior approval.

We will designate the company that will serve as your Project Manager. You pay the Project Manager a $15,000

project management fee. In exchange for this fee, the Project Manager provides the following Project Management Services relating to the development of your Restaurant:

• developing a preliminary layout and design for your Restaurant
