         2.10    Reduction or Termination of Revolving Loan.  The Borrowers
may, from time to time, upon written notice received by the Bank, permanently
reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitment, but only upon repayment of the
amount, if any, by which the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Note
exceeds the then reduced amount of the Revolving Commitment.  Any such
reduction shall be in an amount of at least $100,000.  The Borrowers may at any
time on like notice terminate the Revolving Commitment in full by paying the
Revolving Note in full.

         2.11    Renewal and Extension.  In the event the Revolving Loan is
renewed and extended at maturity, the terms and provisions of this Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the Revolving Loan,
except as may otherwise be agreed in writing by the Borrowers and the Bank.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be
construed as obligating the Bank to agree or consent to any such renewal and
extension, and the Borrowers acknowledge that the Bank has not made or given
any assurances regarding renewal and extension of the Revolving Loan.

         2.12    Maximum Lawful Interest Rate.  It is not the intention of the
Bank or the Borrowers to violate the laws of any applicable jurisdiction
relating to usury or  other restrictions on the maximum lawful interest rate.
The Loan Documents and all other agreements between the Borrowers and the Bank,
whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are
hereby limited so that in no event shall the interest paid or agreed to be paid
to the Bank for the use, forbearance or detention of money loaned, or for the
payment or performance of any covenant or obligation contained herein or in any
other Loan Document, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable
law.  If from any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof
or of any other Loan Document, at the time the performance of such provision
shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by
law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the
limit of such validity.  If from any such circumstances the Bank shall ever
receive anything of value deemed interest under applicable law which would
exceed interest at the highest lawful rate, such excessive interest shall be
applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing hereunder, and not to
the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds any unpaid
balance of principal, such excess shall be refunded to the Borrowers.  All sums
paid or agreed to be paid to the Bank for the use, forbearance or detention of
monies shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized,
prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Obligations
until payment in full so that the rate of interest on account of such
Obligations is uniform throughout the term thereof.  This Subsection 2.12 shall
control every other provision of the Loan Documents and all other agreements
between the Bank and the Borrowers contemplated thereby.

         2.12    Appointment of Agent.  PGI hereby designates and appoints
Eateries as its sole and exclusive agent for the purposes of requesting and
receiving Advances, submitting reports and certificates hereunder and making
payments or prepayments in accordance herewith.

9.       REMEDIES

         9.1     Acceleration of Obligations. If any Event of Default specified
in Subsection 8.6 hereof shall occur, the obligations of the Bank hereunder
(including the Revolving Commitment) shall automatically be terminated and the
Revolving Note and all other Obligations shall become immediately due and
payable, all without notice or demand.  If any other Event of Default shall
occur, the Bank may, at its option, without notice or demand, terminate its
obligations hereunder (including the Revolving Commitment) and declare the
Revolving Note and all other Obligations to be immediately due and payable,
whereupon the same shall become forthwith due and payable.

         9.2     Remedies.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of
any Event of Default, the Bank shall be entitled to exercise all remedies
available to it under the Loan Documents or otherwise under applicable law.

         9.3     Cumulative Remedies.  No failure on the part of the Bank to
exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy under the Loan
Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise by the Bank of any right thereunder preclude any other or further
right or exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.  The remedies
herein provided are cumulative and not alternative.

         9.4     Waiver of Default.  The Bank may, by an instrument in writing,
waive any Default or Event of Default and any of the consequences of such
Default or  Event of Default, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequence of such
subsequent or other Default or Event of Default.

         9.5     Deposits; Setoff.  Regardless of the adequacy of any
collateral security held by the Bank, any deposits or other sums credited by or
due from the Bank to either of the Borrowers may at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default be set off
against the Obligations.  The rights granted by this Subsection 9.5 shall be in
addition to the rights of the Bank under any statutory banker's lien or the
common law right of set off.  This Subsection 9.5 shall not apply to any monies
of which the applicable Borrower is not the beneficial owner, regardless of the
name in which the money is deposited, nor shall this Subsection 9.5 apply to
any monies which the applicable Borrower is contractually obligated to spend in
whole or in part for the account of others, provided that such Borrower shall
have established special accounts or given the Bank written notice that
particular funds are beneficially owned by others, are dedicated for particular
expenditures, or are subject to such Borrower's contractual obligation to spend
for others.  If the applicable Borrower fails to establish such special
accounts and fails to give such notice, the Bank may assume that funds on
deposit to the account of such Borrower belong solely to the named depositor
and are subject to this Subsection 9.5.

         9.6     Application of Payments.  During the continuation of any Event
of Default, all payments received by the Bank in respect of the Obligations may
be applied by the Bank to any





                                       23
<PAGE>   24
liabilities, obligations or indebtedness included in the Obligations selected
by the Bank in its sole and exclusive discretion.

10.      GENERAL PROVISIONS.  It is further agreed as follows:

         10.1    Participating Lender.  The Borrowers understand that, although

thereof, the Bank may from time to time sell one or more participation
interests in the Revolving Loan to one or more financial institutions which are
Affiliates of the Bank or, upon the prior written consent of the Borrowers
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), to one or more other financial
institutions.  Each of the Borrowers agree that, subject to the terms of the
agreements of participation, each participating lender will be entitled to rely
on the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as fully as if such
participating lender had been named as the holder of the Revolving Note and
other Loan Documents.

         10.2    Hold Harmless.  Except for a successful claim against the Bank
by the Borrowers, each of the Borrowers will indemnify and hold the Bank and
each participant in the Revolving Note harmless from all liability, loss,
damages or expense, including reasonable attorney's fees, that the Bank or any
such participant may incur in good faith as a result of entering into the Loan
Documents or establishing the Revolving Loan, or in compliance with or in the
enforcement of the terms of the Loan Documents.

contracts made under the laws of the State of Oklahoma, and all rights and
obligations hereunder, including matters of construction, validity and
performance, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma.  Nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute the Bank as a joint venturer
with the Borrowers or to constitute a partnership.  The descriptive headings of
the Sections and Subsections of this Agreement are for convenience only and
shall not be used in the construction of the content of this Agreement.

         10.5    Binding Effect.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents
shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns, provided that without the prior,

         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Eateries, Inc., an Oklahoma

the "Makers"), promise to pay to the order of Liberty Bank and Trust Company of
Oklahoma City, National Association ("Bank"), at its principal office in
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, or at such other place as may be designated in writing
by the holder of this Note, the principal sum of Five Million and No/100
Dollars ($5,000,000.00) or so much thereof as shall be disbursed and remain
outstanding hereunder, together with interest thereon at the rate or rates
specified in Subsection 2.5 of the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined).

         This Note is executed and delivered by Makers pursuant to, and is
entitled to the benefits of, that certain Loan Agreement dated August 31, 1995,
as amended (the "Loan Agreement"), between Makers and Bank.  Reference is

maturity hereof on the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default
specified therein, and for all other pertinent purposes.

         This Note is made, executed and delivered in renewal, extension,
increase and replacement of (but not in payment or satisfaction of) that
certain Promissory Note of Makers dated August 31, 1995, payable to the order
of Bank in the principal amount of $3,000,000.

         Principal and interest hereunder shall be due and payable at such
times and in such amounts as are specified in the Loan Agreement; provided that
the entire unpaid principal balance hereof and all accrued interest thereon
shall be due and payable on August 31, 1999.

         All payments, including prepayments, of principal of, or interest
hereunder, shall be made to Bank at its principal office in Oklahoma City,
Oklahoma, on or before 2:00 p.m., Oklahoma City time, on the date due, in
immediately available funds.  Whenever a payment is due on a day other than a
business day, the due date shall be extended to the next succeeding business
day and interest (if any) shall accrue during such extension.

         While any default exists hereunder, all sums herein promised to be
paid shall bear interest at the rate equal to the Default Rate set forth in the
Loan Agreement, accrued from the date of
<PAGE>   29
default to the date on which such default is cured to the satisfaction of the
holder hereof.  All past due sums will be paid at the time of and as a condition
precedent to the curing of any default hereunder. During the existence of any
such default, the holder of this Note may apply payments received on any amount
due hereunder or under the terms of any instrument now or hereafter evidencing
or securing any said indebtedness as said holder may determine.

         It is the intent of Bank and Makers to conform strictly to all
applicable usury laws, and any interest on the principal balance hereof in
excess of that allowed by said usury laws shall be subject to reduction to the
maximum amount of interest allowed under said laws. If any interest in excess
of the maximum amount of interest allowable by said usury laws is inadvertently
paid to the holder hereof, at any time, any such excess interest shall be
refunded by the holder to the party or parties entitled to the same after
receiving notice of payment of such excess interest.

         All advances and payments hereunder will be recorded by Bank in its
books and records, and the unpaid principal balance so recorded shall be
presumptive evidence of the amount owing on this Note.

         If, and as often as, this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney
for collection or to defend or enforce any of the holder's right hereunder,
Makers will pay to the holder hereof its reasonable attorneys' fees, together
with all court costs and other expenses paid by such holder.

         Makers, endorsers, sureties, guarantors and all other parties who may
become liable for all or any part of this Note severally waive demand,
presentment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, and notice of
non-payment, and consent to: (a) any and all extensions of time for any term or
terms regarding any payment due under this Note, including partial payments or
renewals before or after maturity; (b) any substitutions or release of
collateral; and (c) the addition, substitution or release of any party liable
for payment of this Note.

         No waiver of any payment or other right under this Note or any related
agreement shall operate as a waiver of any other payment or right. All of the
holder's rights hereunder are cumulative and not alternative. This Note shall
inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of Bank or other holder and
shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Makers.

         THIS NOTE HAS BEEN DELIVERED TO AND ACCEPTED BY THE BANK IN THE STATE
OF OKLAHOMA, IS TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA AND SHALL BE DEEMED A
CONTRACT MADE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA, AND ALL RIGHTS AND
