amended, modified, supplemented and/or restated from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Merger Agreement”)). 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Corporation will merge with Merger Sub and become an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, and
the assets and liabilities of the Corporation, including the Salary Continuation Agreement, will remain obligations of the Corporation. 
  

	 	 1.
	 Amendment to Suspend/Terminate Certain SCA Obligations. Section 7 of the Salary Continuation Agreement is amended, effective as of the
Effective Time, to add the following new sentences at the end thereof to read as follows: 


 Notwithstanding any other
provision in this Agreement, the obligations of the Corporation under this Section 7 shall be suspended during the period that Fidelity National Financial, Inc.’s guarantees under Section 16 of this Agreement are in
effect. If and only if Fidelity Newport Holdings, LLC (“Operating Company”) at any time beneficially owns any interest in the Corporation, then: (x) Operating Company shall, and hereby does, at and after any such
time also guarantee the performance of the obligations of the Corporation hereunder, which guarantee shall continue in force until all such obligations are satisfied; and (y) in the event that, at or after any such time that the Operating
Company becomes the guarantor, Fidelity National Financial, Inc.’s direct or indirect beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (or any successor rules thereto)) of the Corporation
is less than 40%, then: (a) the Corporation’s obligations under this Section 7, including, without limitation, the Corporation’s obligation to establish a rabbi trust with funds provided by the Corporation and the
Corporation’s obligation to make contributions to such trust, shall resume and again be effective from and after such time and (b) Fidelity National Financial, Inc.’s guarantee set forth in Section 3 of that certain letter
agreement, dated July 30, 2012, as may be amended, modified, supplemented and/or restated from time to time, shall terminate, be released and be of no further force and effect upon the Corporation’s establishment of a rabbi trust in
conformity with the provisions of this Section 7. In no event shall the occurrence of the events described in clause (y) of the preceding sentence have any effect on the obligations of the Operating Company pursuant
to its guarantee made in accordance with the preceding sentence. 








	 	 2.
	 Amendment. The Salary Continuation Agreement shall be amended, effective as of the Effective Time, to provide as follows:



 Each reference to the “Corporation” herein shall be deemed to refer solely to J. Alexander’s Corporation
and its successors and permitted assigns. 
  

	 	 3.
	 Guarantee. Parent shall, and hereby does, contingent on the occurrence of, and effective upon, the Acceptance Time (as defined in the
Merger Agreement), guarantee the performance of the obligations of the Corporation under the Salary Continuation Agreement; provided, however, that if and only if Operating Company at any time beneficially owns any interest in the
Corporation, then: (x) Operating Company shall, and hereby does, at and after any such time also guarantee the performance of the obligations of the Corporation under the Salary Continuation Agreement, which guarantee shall continue in
force until all such obligations are satisfied; and (y) in the event that, at or after any such time that the Operating Company becomes the guarantor, the Parent’s direct or indirect beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 and Rule
13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (or any successor rules thereto)) of the Corporation is less than 40%, then: (a) the Corporation’s obligations under Section 7 of the Salary Continuation Agreement shall resume and again
be effective and (b) Parent’s guarantee under this Section 3 shall terminate, be released and be of no further force and effect upon the Corporation’s establishment of a rabbi trust in conformity with the provisions of
such Section 7 of the Salary Continuation Agreement. In no event shall the occurrence of the events described in clause (b) of the preceding sentence have any effect on the obligations of the Operating Company pursuant to its
guarantee made in accordance with the preceding sentence. Each of Parent and Operating Company hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of performance, filing of any claim, any right to require any proceeding first against the Corporation,
protest, notice and all demands whatsoever in connection with the performance of its obligations set forth in this Section 3. If Executive so requests, any such rabbi trust shall be established with the Corporation’s funds at
the Operating Company level. The Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that, effective immediately upon execution and delivery of this letter agreement, the Executive hereby (i) releases American Blue Ribbon Holdings, Inc. from any and
all obligations and liability under this letter and (ii) waives any rights against American Blue Ribbon Holdings, Inc. under this letter. 


  

	 	 4.
	 Continuing Force and Effect. Other than the amendments specifically agreed herein, the Salary Continuation Agreement remains in full
force and effect. 


  

	 	 5.
	 Severability. If any provision of this letter agreement or the application of any such provision to any party or circumstances will be
determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid and unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this letter agreement or the application of such provision to such person or circumstances other than those to which it is so
determined to be invalid and unenforceable, will not be affected thereby, and each provision hereof will be validated and will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
