LIABILITIES OF SELLER AND THE PARTNERSHIP





2.1        Liabilities Defined. As used in this Agreement, the term “Liability” shall mean and include any direct or indirect indebtedness, guaranty, endorsement, claim,
loss, damage, deficiency, cost, expense, obligation or responsibility, fixed or unfixed, known or unknown, asserted or unasserted, liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured.





2.2        No Liabilities of Seller Assumed. Except as provided in Section 2.4, Buyer is not assuming any Liabilities of Seller whatsoever and all such Liabilities shall be and
remain the responsibility of Seller.





2.3        Liabilities Attributable to the Partnership Interests. Except as provided in Section 2.4, Buyer is not assuming any of the portion of the Liabilities of the
Partnership attributable to the Partnership Interests arising from or related to any periods prior to the Effective Date, for which Buyer would not have otherwise been liable prior to the Purchase as a result of Buyer’s ownership of the Prior Interest, and then
only to such extent Buyer would have been liable as a result of the ownership of the Prior Interest; and all such Liabilities shall be and remain the responsibility of and be satisfied by the Seller and/or the Principals. Seller and the Principals shall, jointly and
severally, indemnify, defend and hold Buyer harmless from and against any Liability of the Sellers and any Liabilities of the Partnership attributable to the Partnership Interests arising from or related to any periods prior to the Effective Date, except as provided

the Buyer to be relieved of, any liability arising from any act or omission of the Buyer whether before or after the Closing Date; provided however, the parties acknowledge that the Partnership operates the Restaurant pursuant to a Restaurant Franchise Agreement (the
“Franchise Agreement”) with the Buyer, and the Buyer provides certain accounting services to the Partnership pursuant to an Accounting Services Agreement (the “Accounting Agreement”) and nothing contained in this Section 2.4 shall be
deemed to change or waive any allocation or assumption of risk, or indemnification agreed to in the Franchise Agreement or Accounting Agreement.





2.5        Dissolution of Seller. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting Seller from dissolving after the Closing Date and transferring to the
Seller’s members their proportionate right to receive the Purchase Price as provided in Section 1.2.





3.         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE SELLER AND THE PRINCIPALS





            The Seller and Principals, jointly and severally, represent and warrant to Buyer that each of the following is true and correct in all material respects as of

            3.1(b)   Power. Seller has all requisite power and authority to own, operate and lease its properties, and to carry on its businesses as and
where such are now being conducted.

where the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on Seller’s businesses, operations, assets or financial condition.

interest in any corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, except for ownership by the Seller of partnership interests in the Partnership.

manager of Seller and, on or before the Closing Date, shall have been duly authorized and approved by the members of Seller as required by the laws of the State of Indiana and Seller’s governance documents. No other or further act or proceeding on the part of
Seller, its manager or members is necessary to authorize this Agreement or the other documents and instruments to be executed and delivered by Seller pursuant hereto or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. This Agreement constitutes,
and when executed and delivered, the other documents and instruments to be executed and delivered by Seller pursuant hereto will constitute, valid binding agreements of Seller, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and by general equitable principles.





            3.3        No Violation. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the other
documents and instruments to be executed and delivered by the Seller pursuant hereto, nor the consummation by the Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (a) will violate any applicable statute, ordinance, rule or regulation (collectively

event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default or breach) under, or will result in the termination of, or accelerate the performance required by, or result in the creation of any Lien (as defined in Section 3.5(b)) upon any of
the assets of Seller or the Partnership under any term or provision of the articles of organization, operating agreement or other governing document of Seller, or of any material contract, commitment, understanding, arrangement, agreement or restriction of any kind
or character to which either (i) the Seller is a party or by which any of its assets or properties may be bound or affected, or (ii) to the knowledge of the Sellers and the Principals, the Partnership is a party or by which any of its assets or properties may be
bound or affected.





3.4        Absence of Liabilities. Seller does not have any Liabilities that would in any manner impair the Partnership Interests or result in any Lien on the
Partnership Interests. Except for Liabilities reflected on the Recent Balance Sheet or as set forth on Schedule 3.4, the Seller and the Principals have no knowledge of any basis for the assertion against the Seller or the Partnership of any Liability and to
the knowledge of the Seller and the Principals, there are no circumstances, conditions, happenings, events or arrangements, contractual or otherwise, which may give rise to Liabilities that would result in any Lien on the Partnership Interests or have a material
adverse effect on the Partnership or the Partnership Interests.

restrictions contained in the Partnership Agreement. Seller has complete and unrestricted power and right to sell, assign, convey and deliver the Partnership Interests to Buyer as contemplated hereby. On the Closing Date, Buyer will receive good and valid title to

Seller and the Principals, the Partnership is not in default under any agreement, contract or commitment. To the knowledge of the Seller and the Principals, no event or omission occurred which through the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would

governmental charge has been claimed, proposed or assessed against Seller or the Partnership nor has Seller or the Partnership received written notice of any such deficiency, delinquency or default. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6, the Seller and the

            4.3        No Brokers or Finders. Neither Buyer nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents have

any material contract, commitment, understanding, arrangement, agreement or restriction of any kind or character to which Buyer is a party or by which Buyer or any of its assets or properties may be bound or affected.





5.         COVENANTS OF SELLER AND PRINCIPALS





5.1        Noncompetition.For a two (2) year period commencing on the Closing Date the Seller, and each Principal shall not, individually or jointly with others, directly or
indirectly, whether for his, her or its own account or for that of any other person or entity, engage in or own or hold any ownership interest in, have any interest in or lend any assistance to any seafood restaurant or any person or entity engaged in a business
owning, operating, franchising or controlling a seafood restaurant business, regardless of the geographic location of such person, entity or business, and neither Seller, nor either Principal shall act as an officer, director, employee, partner, independent
contractor, consultant, principal, agent, proprietor, or in any other capacity for, nor lend any assistance (financial or otherwise) or cooperation to, any such person, or entity; provided, however, that it shall not be a violation of this
Section 5.1 for Seller or Principal to own a one percent (1%) or smaller interest in any corporation required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or successor statute.  For
purposes of this Article 5,the term “seafood restaurant” shall mean any restaurant for which: (i) the word “seafood” or any item of seafood or any word connotating seafood, or any type of body of
water, is used in its name; or (ii) the sale of seafood is regularly featured in its advertising or marketing efforts, or (iii) the sale of seafood constitutes thirty percent (30%) or more of its entrée sales, computed on a dollar basis. For purposes of this
Agreement, the term “seafood” shall mean and include all marine life forms, whether or not edible, and any part of any marine life form (for example, “shells”, “fins”, “claws”). This Section 5.1 shall not apply to (a) the Principals’ indirect ownership through Fishbuds of any interest in the Seller, the Partnership, Fishbuds of Louisville I LLC or Fishbuds Indianapolis I, LLC, or their successors-in-interest or (b) any
Principal’s employment by or ownership of and interest in any affiliate of Outback Steakhouse, Inc. (“Buyer’s Affiliates”).





5.2        Confidentiality.





5.2(a)   Definition. For the purpose of this Agreement, “Proprietary Information” shall include all information which reasonably would be considered proprietary or confidential to the business of
operating Bonefish GrillTM restaurants including but not limited to suppliers, customers, trade or industrial practices, marketing and technical plans, technology, personnel, organization or internal affairs, plans for products and ideas, recipes, menus, wine
lists and proprietary techniques and other trade secrets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Proprietary Information” shall not include information that has entered the public domain.





5.2(b)   No Disclosure, Use, or Circumvention. The Principals and the Seller shall not disclose any Proprietary Information to any third parties. Except in connection with their employment with Buyer or
Buyer’s Affiliates, the Principals and the Seller will not use any Proprietary Information in any business without the prior written consent of the Buyer and then only to the extent specified in that consent. Consent may be granted or withheld at the sole
discretion of the Buyer.





5.2(c)   Maintenance of Confidentiality. The Principals and Seller shall take all steps reasonably necessary or appropriate to maintain the confidentiality of the Proprietary Information in accordance with
this Agreement.





5.3        Non-Solicitation. For a five (5) year period commencing on the Closing Date neither of the Principals or the Seller shall offer employment to any employee of the Buyer,
Buyer’s Affiliates or otherwise solicit or induce any employee of the Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates to terminate his or her employment, nor shall any of the Principals or the Seller act as partner, consultant, agent, owner or part owner, for any person or
entity which solicits or otherwise induces any employee of the Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates to terminate his or her employment with the Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates, except for non-management personnel recruited through general solicitations in print or
other media.





5.4        Reasonableness of Restrictions; Reformation; Enforcement. The parties hereto recognize and acknowledge that the time limitations contained inSections 5.1, 5.2
and5.3 hereof are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the Buyer’s interests. It is agreed by the parties hereto that if any portion of the restrictions contained in Sections 5.1, 5.2 or5.3 are held to be
unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, then the restrictions shall be considered divisible, with each month of the specified period being deemed a separate period of time, so that the lesser period of time shall
remain effective so long as the same is not unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy. The parties hereto agree that in the event any court of competent jurisdiction determines the specified period to be
unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, a lesser time period that is determined to be reasonable, nonarbitrary, and not against public policy may be enforced. If any of the
covenants contained herein are violated and if any court action is instituted by the Buyer to prevent or enjoin such violation, then the period of time during which the business activities shall be restricted, as provided in this Agreement, shall be lengthened by a
period of time equal to the period between the date of the breach of the terms or covenants contained in this Agreement and the date on which the decree of the court disposing of the issues upon the merits shall become final and not subject to further
appeal.





            5.5        Specific Performance.The parties agree that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 5.1, 5.2 and5.3 hereof will cause irreparable injury to the Buyer for which the remedy at law will be inadequate and would be
difficult to ascertain and therefore, in the event of the breach or threatened breach of any such covenants, the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to any other rights and remedies it may have at law or in equity, to obtain an injunction to restrain any threatened
or actual activities in violation of any such covenants. The parties hereby consent and agree that temporary and permanent injunctive relief may be granted in any proceedings that might be brought to enforce any such covenants without the necessity of proof of actual
damages, and in the event the Buyer does apply for such an injunction, that the Buyer has an adequate remedy at law shall not be raised as a defense.





5.6        Access to Information and Records. Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall give Buyer, its counsel, accountants and other representatives (i) access during normal
business hours to all of the properties, books, records, contracts and documents of the Seller relating to the Partnership Interests for the purpose of such inspection and investigation as Buyer deems appropriate (and Seller shall furnish or cause to be furnished to
Buyer and its representatives all information with respect to the business and affairs of Seller and the Partnership as Buyer may request); (ii) access to employees, agents and representatives for the purposes of such meetings and communications as Buyer reasonably
desires; and (iii) access to vendors, customers, manufacturers of its machinery and equipment, and others having business dealings with Seller and the Partnership.  Through the Closing Date, the Buyer shall not disclose any Proprietary Information obtained
pursuant to this paragraph to any third parties and until the Closing Date will not use any such Proprietary Information in the Buyer’s business or any affiliated business without the prior written consent of the Seller and then only to the extent specified in
that consent. The Buyer shall not contact any suppliers, customers, employees, affiliates or associates to circumvent the purposes of this provision. The Buyer shall take all steps reasonably necessary or appropriate to maintain the strict confidentiality of the
Proprietary Information through the Closing Date.





            5.7        Conduct of Business Pending the Closing. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, except as otherwise
approved in writing by Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld:





                        5.7(a)   No Changes. Seller, as a partner in the Partnership, will use
its reasonable efforts to cause the Partnership, in all material respects, to carry on its business diligently and in the same manner as heretofore and will not make or institute any material changes in its methods of purchase, sale, management, accounting or
operation.





                        5.7(b)   Maintain Organization. The Seller will take such action as
may be necessary to maintain, preserve, renew and keep in favor the material rights and franchises of the Partnership and will use its commercially reasonable best efforts, to the extent material hereto, to preserve the business organization of the Partnership
intact, to keep available to Buyer the present employees, and to preserve for Buyer its present relationships with suppliers and customers and others having business relationships with the Partnership.





                        5.7(c)   No Breach. The Seller and Principals will not do or omit any
act, or permit any omission to act, which would reasonably be expected to cause a breach of any material contract, commitment or obligation, or any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Seller or Principals herein.





                        5.7(d)   No Material Contracts. No contract or commitment will be
entered into, by either Principal or Seller on behalf of the Partnership, except contracts, commitments, purchases or sales which are in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice, are not material to the Partnership (individually or in the
aggregate) and would not have been required to be disclosed in the Disclosure Schedules had they been in existence on the date of this Agreement.





                        5.7(e)   No Organizational Changes. Seller shall not materially amend
the Certificate of Limited Partnership or Partnership Agreement of the Partnership.





                        5.7(f)    Maintenance of Insurance. Seller shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Partnership to maintain all of the insurance in effect as of the date hereof.





                        5.7(g)   No Negotiations. Except for Seller’s redemption of all
members’ interests in Seller other than Fishbuds, neither the Principals nor the Seller will directly or indirectly (through a representative or otherwise) solicit or furnish any information to any prospective buyer, commence, or conduct presently ongoing,
negotiations with any other party or enter into any agreement with any other party concerning the sale of the Partnership Interests, or any membership interest in Seller (an “acquisition proposal”), and the Seller and Principals shall immediately advise
Buyer of the receipt of any acquisition proposal.





            5.8        Consents. The Seller and Principals will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all consents
necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby prior to the Closing Date.





            5.9        Other Action. The Seller and Principals shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the fulfillment
at the earliest practicable date of all of the conditions to the parties’ obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.





            5.10      Disclosure. Through the Closing Date, the Seller and Principals shall have a continuing obligation to promptly notify
Buyer in writing with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered which, if existing or known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the Disclosure Schedules, but no such disclosure shall cure any breach of
any representation or warranty which is inaccurate.

Buyer’s Indemnitees or the Partnership Interests transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, by reason of, arising out of or resulting from (a) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of any of the Seller or the Principals contained in

            8.3        Indemnification of Third‐Party Claims. The obligations and liabilities of any
party to indemnify any other under this Section 8 with respect to Claims relating to third parties shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:





                        8.3(a)   Notice and Defense. The party or
parties to be indemnified (whether one or more, the “Indemnified Party”) will give the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of any such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to
undertake the defense thereof, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, by representatives and counsel approved by the Indemnified Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld.  Failure to give such notice shall not affect the
Indemnifying Party’s duty or obligations under this Section 8, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle any Claim asserted by a third party subject to the Indemnified
Party’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld.  Each party shall make available to the other all records and other materials required by them and in the possession or under the control of such party, for the use of the
other party in defending any such Claim, and shall in other respects give reasonable cooperation in such defense.





                        8.3(b)   Right to Settle The Indemnifying Party shall have the right
to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of any Claim asserted by a third party or consent to the entry of a judgment with respect to such Claim, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party, subject to the Indemnified Party’s
reasonable approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld.





                        8.3(c)   Indemnified Party’s Rights. Anything in thisSection
8 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) if there is a reasonable probability that a Claim may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other money payments, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to
participate at its own cost and expense in the defense, compromise and settlement of  such Claim; (ii) if the Indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of a Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, compromise and settle such Claim; and
(iii) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld, settle or compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all Liability in respect of such Claim.





            8.4        Payment. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay the Indemnified Party any amount
due under this Section 8, which payment may be accomplished in whole or in part, at the option of the Indemnified Party, by the Indemnified Party setting off any amount owed to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnified Party. To the extent set‐off is
made by an Indemnified Party in satisfaction or partial satisfaction of an indemnity obligation under this Section 8 that is disputed by the Indemnifying Party, upon a subsequent determination by final judgment not subject to appeal that all or a portion of
such indemnity obligation was not owed to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall pay the Indemnifying Party the amount which was set off and not owed together with interest from the date of set‐off until the date of such payment at an annual rate
equal to the average annual rate in effect as of the date of the set‐off, on those three maturities of United States Treasury obligations having a remaining life, as of such date, closest to the period from the date of the set‐off to the date of such
judgment.  Upon judgment, determination, settlement or compromise of any third party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay promptly on behalf of the Indemnified Party, and/or to the Indemnified Party in reimbursement of any amount theretofore required to be
paid by it, the amount so determined by judgment, determination, settlement or compromise and all other Claims of the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, unless in the case of a judgment an appeal is made from the judgment. If the Indemnifying Party desires to
appeal from an adverse judgment, then the Indemnifying Party shall post and pay the cost of the security or bond to stay execution of the judgment pending appeal. Upon the payment in full by the Indemnifying Party of such amounts, the Indemnifying Party shall succeed
to the rights of such Indemnified Party, to the extent not waived in settlement, against the third party who made such third party Claim.





8.5        Survival of Indemnification. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver by any party of its rights to indemnification
hereunder. The indemnification obligations of the parties contained in this Section 8 shall survive the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date for all Claims brought or demands for indemnification made prior to the expiration of two (2) years from the
Closing Date, except that the indemnification obligations relating to the representations and warranties regarding tax obligations and/or obligations pursuant to gift certificate escheat laws shall survive until one (1) year after the expiration of the applicable
statute of limitations for such obligations.





8.6        Indemnification for Liabilities Arising from Acts or Omissions of Buyer. The parties agree that nothing contained in this Article 8 shall make Seller or the Principals
responsible for indemnifying the Buyer, the Partnership or any third party for any liability arising from any act or omission of the Buyer whether before or after the Closing Date; provided however, the parties acknowledge that the Partnership operates the Restaurant
pursuant to a Restaurant Franchise Agreement (the “Franchise Agreement”) with the Buyer, and the Buyer provides certain accounting services to the Partnership pursuant to an Accounting Services Agreement (the “Accounting Agreement”) and
nothing contained in this Section 8.6 shall be deemed to change or waive any allocation or assumption of risk, or indemnification agreed to in the Franchise Agreement or Accounting Agreement.
