drive-thru service. The Company also licenses Big Boy restaurants to other operators, currently in certain parts of Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. In addition, the Company operates a commissary and food manufacturing plant near its
headquarters in Cincinnati, Ohio that services all Big Boy restaurants operated by the Company, and is available to supply restaurants licensed to others.

Consolidation Practices

The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all of the Companys accounts, prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). Significant inter-company accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, these interim financial statements include all adjustments (all of which were normal and recurring) necessary for a fair presentation of all periods presented.

Reclassification

Certain
prior year adjustments have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Fiscal Year

The Companys fiscal year is the 52 week (364 days) or 53 week (371 days) period ending on the Tuesday nearest to the last day of May. The first
quarter of each fiscal year contains sixteen weeks, while the last three quarters each normally contain twelve weeks. Every fifth or sixth year, the additional week needed to make a 53 week year is added to the fourth quarter, resulting in a
thirteen week fourth quarter. The current fiscal year will end on Tuesday, June 1, 2010 (fiscal year 2010), a period of 52 weeks. The year that ended June 2, 2009 (fiscal year 2009) was also a 52 week year.

Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use estimates and assumptions to measure certain items that affect
the amounts reported. These judgments are based on knowledge and experience about past and current events, and assumptions about future events. Although management believes its estimates are reasonable and adequate, future events affecting them may
differ markedly from current judgment. Significant estimates and assumptions are used to measure self-insurance liabilities, deferred executive compensation obligations, net periodic pension cost and future pension obligations, the carrying values
of property held for sale and for long-lived assets including property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets.

Management
considers the following accounting policies to be critical accounting policies because the application of estimates to these policies requires managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments: self-insurance liabilities, net
periodic pension cost and future pension obligations, and the carrying values of long-lived assets.

NOTE A  ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)



Cash and Cash Equivalents

Funds in transit from credit card processors are classified as cash. Highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are
considered as cash equivalents.

Receivables

Trade notes and accounts receivable are valued on the reserve method. The reserve balance was $30,000 as of March 9, 2010 and June 2, 2009. The
reserve is monitored for adequacy based on historical collection patterns and write-offs, and current credit risks.

Inventories

Inventories, comprised principally of food items, are valued at the lower of cost, determined by the first-in, first-out method, or
market.

Accounting for Rebates

Cash consideration received from certain food vendors is treated as a reduction of cost of sales and is recognized in the same periods in which the
rebates are earned.

Leases

Minimum scheduled lease payments on operating leases, including escalating rental payments, are recognized as rent expense on a straight-line basis over
the term of the lease. Under certain circumstances, the lease term used to calculate straight-line rent expense includes option periods that have yet to be legally exercised. Contingent rentals, typically based on a percentage of restaurant sales in
excess of a fixed amount, are expensed as incurred. Rent expense is also recognized during that part of the lease term when no rent is paid to the landlord, often referred to as a rent holiday, that generally occurs while a restaurant is
being constructed on leased land. The Company does not typically receive leasehold incentives from landlords.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated service lives,
which range from ten to 25 years for new buildings or components thereof and five to ten years for equipment. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the lease term. Property betterments are
capitalized while the cost of maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred.

The cost of land not yet in service is included in
construction in progress if construction has begun or if construction is likely within the next twelve months. As of March 9, 2010, two new Big Boy restaurant buildings were under construction on land owned by the Company, and
construction on a third new Big Boy had begun on land leased by the Company. Estimated remaining costs (not already included in construction in progress) as of March 9, 2010 to complete construction of the three restaurants approximated
$3,296,000. In addition, near term construction is likely on two additional land tracts that were acquired in February 2010 for Big Boy development. Contracts to acquire additional sites for future development that had been entered before
March 9, 2010 were cancellable at the Companys sole discretion while due diligence is pursued under the inspection period provisions of the contracts.

Interest on borrowings is capitalized during active construction periods of new restaurants. Capitalized interest was $70,000 and $40,000 respectively,
for the 40 weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009, and was $38,000 and zero respectively, for the twelve week periods ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009.

Five Big Boy restaurant facilities, which had been occupied under month-to-month arrangements until litigation was resolved, were acquired on
September 1, 2009 for the total sum of $4,000,000. (See Note C  Leased Property. Also see Litigation in Note H  Commitments and Contingencies).

Third Quarter Fiscal 2010, Ended March 9, 2010

NOTE A  ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)



The cost of land on which construction is not likely within the next twelve months is classified as
Investments in land in the consolidated balance sheet. Surplus property that is no longer needed by the Company, including two former Big Boy restaurants (one ceased operations near the end of fiscal year 2008 and the other closed near
the end of fiscal year 2009), is classified as property held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet. All of the surplus property is stated at net realizable value. Market values are generally determined by opinions of value provided
by real estate brokers and/or managements judgment.

Costs incurred during the application development stage of computer software that
is developed or obtained for internal use is capitalized, while the costs of the preliminary project stage are expensed as incurred, along with certain other costs such as training. Capitalized computer software is amortized on the straight-line
method over the estimated service lives, which range from three to ten years. Software assets are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable over the remaining service life.

Impairment of Assets

Management considers a history of cash flow losses on a restaurant-by-restaurant basis to be its primary indicator of potential impairment of assets.
Carrying values are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values of the assets may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use
and eventual disposition of the property. When undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than carrying values, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying values exceed the greater of the net present value of
the future cash flow stream or a floor value. Floor values are generally determined by opinions of value provided by real estate brokers and/or managements judgment as developed through its experience in disposing of unprofitable restaurant
properties.

No impairment losses were recorded during either the 40 weeks ended March 9, 2010 or March 10, 2009, or during the
twelve week periods ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009. Three Golden Corral restaurants that were determined to be impaired in fiscal year 2008 remain in operation.

Restaurant Closing Costs

Any
liabilities associated with exit or disposal activities are recognized only when the liabilities are incurred, rather than upon the commitment to an exit or disposal plan. Conditional obligations that meet the definition of an asset retirement
obligation are currently recognized if fair value is reasonably estimable.

The carrying values of closed restaurant properties that are held
for sale are reduced to net realizable value in accordance with the accounting policy for impairment of long-lived assets (see above). When leased restaurant properties are closed, a provision is made equal to the present value of remaining
non-cancellable lease payments after the closing date, net of estimated subtenant income. The carrying values of leasehold improvements are also reduced in accordance with the accounting policy for impairment of long-lived assets.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, Including Licensing Agreements

As of March 9, 2010 and June 2, 2009, the carrying amount of goodwill that was acquired in prior years amounted to $741,000. Acquired goodwill
is tested annually for impairment and whenever an impairment indicator arises. Impairment losses are recorded when impairment is determined to have occurred.

NOTE A  ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)



Other intangible assets consist principally of initial franchise fees paid for each new Golden Corral
restaurant the Company has opened (finite useful lives are subject to amortization) or has the right to open (yet to be determined useful lives are not subject to amortization). Amortization of the $40,000 initial fee begins when the restaurant
opens and is computed using the straight-line method over the 15-year term of each individual restaurants franchise agreement. The fees are ratably amortized at $2,667 per year per restaurant, which equates to $85,000 per year in each of the
next five years for the 35 Golden Corral restaurants that were in operation as of March 9, 2010, net of three impaired Golden Corral restaurants (see below). Amortization was $66,000 in each of the 40 weeks ended March 9, 2010 and
March 10, 2009 and was $20,000 in each of the twelve weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009.

Other intangible assets are
tested annually for impairment and whenever an impairment indicator arises. The remainder of unamortized initial franchise fees associated with three impaired Golden Corral restaurants (see Impairment of Long-Lived Assets elsewhere in Note A 
Accounting Policies) were written-off in fiscal year 2008.

Miscellaneous other intangible assets are not currently being amortized because
these assets have indefinite or yet to be determined useful lives. An analysis of other intangible assets follows:

The franchise agreements with Golden Corral Franchising Systems, Inc. also require the Company to pay fees based on defined
gross sales. These costs are charged to other operating costs as incurred.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from restaurant operations is recognized upon the sale of products as they are sold to customers. All sales revenue is recorded on a net basis,
which excludes sales tax collected from being reported as sales revenue and sales tax remitted from being reported as a cost. Revenue from the sale of commissary products to Big Boy restaurants licensed to other operators is recognized upon shipment
of product. Revenue from franchise fees, based on certain percentages of sales volumes generated in Big Boy restaurants licensed to other operators, is recorded on the accrual method as earned. Initial franchise fees are recognized as revenue when
the fees are deemed fully earned and non-refundable, which ordinarily occurs upon the execution of the license agreement, in consideration of the Companys services to that time.

Revenue from the sale of gift cards is deferred for recognition until the gift card is redeemed by the cardholder, or when the probability becomes remote
that the cardholder will demand full performance by the Company and there is no legal obligation to remit the value of the unredeemed gift card under applicable state escheatment statutes.

Benefit Plans

The Company maintains two qualified defined benefit pension plans: the Pension Plan for Managers, Office and Commissary Employees (the Salaried Pension
Plan) and the Pension Plan for Operating Unit Hourly Employees (the Hourly Pension Plan). Plan benefits are based on years-of-service and other factors. The Companys funding policy is to contribute at least the minimum annual amount sufficient
to satisfy legal funding requirements plus additional discretionary tax deductible amounts that may be deemed advisable, even when no minimum funding is required. Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to
service-to-date, but also for those expected to be earned in the future (see Note E  Pension Plans).

The Hourly Pension Plan covers
hourly restaurant employees. The Plan was amended on July 1, 2009 to freeze all future accruals for credited service under the Plan after August 31, 2009. The Plan had previously been closed to all hourly paid restaurant employees that
were hired after December 31, 1998. Hourly restaurant employees hired January 1, 1999 or after have been eligible to participate in the Frischs Restaurants, Inc. Hourly Employees 401(k) Savings Plan (the Hourly Savings Plan), a
defined contribution plan that provided a 40 percent match by the Company on the first ten percent of earnings deferred by the participants. The Companys match had vested on a scale based on length of service that reached 100 percent after
four years of service. The Hourly Savings Plan was amended effective September 1, 2009 to provide for immediate vesting along with a 100 percent match from the Company on the first three percent of earnings deferred by participants. All hourly
restaurant employees are now eligible to participate in the Hourly Savings Plan, regardless of when hired.

The Salaried Pension Plan covers
restaurant management, office and commissary employees (salaried employees). The Plan was amended on July 1, 2009 to close entry into the Plan to employees hired after June 30, 2009. Salaried employees hired before June 30, 2009 will
continue to participate in the Salaried Pension Plan and be credited with normal benefits for years of service. Salaried employees are automatically enrolled, unless otherwise elected, in the Frischs Employee 401(k) Savings Plan (the Salaried
Savings Plan), a defined contribution plan. The Salaried Savings Plan provides immediate vesting under two different Company matching schedules. Employees who are participants in the Salaried Pension Plan (hired before June 30, 2009) may
continue to defer up to 25 percent of their compensation under the Salaried Savings Plan, with the Company contributing a ten percent match on the first eighteen percent deferred. Beginning September 1, 2009, salaried employees hired after
June 30, 2009 receive a 100 percent match from the Company on the first three percent of compensation deferred.

NOTE A  ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)



The executive officers of the Company and certain other highly compensated employees
(HCEs) are disqualified from participation in the Salaried Savings Plan. A non-qualified savings plan  Frischs Executive Savings Plan (FESP)  provides a means by which the HCEs may continue to defer a portion of their
compensation. FESP allows deferrals of up to 25 percent of a participants compensation into a choice of mutual funds or common stock of the Company. Matching contributions are added to the first ten percent of salary deferred at a rate of ten
percent for deferrals into mutual funds, while a fifteen percent match is added to deferrals into the Companys common stock. HCEs hired after June 30, 2009 receive a 100 percent matching contribution from the Company on the first
three percent of compensation deferred into either mutual funds or common stock.

Although the Company owns the mutual funds until the
retirement of the participants, the funds are invested at the direction of the participants. The common stock is a phantom investment that may be paid in actual shares or in cash upon retirement of the participant. The FESP liability to
the participants is included in Deferred compensation and other long term obligations in the consolidated balance sheet.

The
Company also maintains an unfunded non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) that was originally intended to provide a supplemental retirement benefit to the HCEs whose benefits under the Salaried Pension Plan were reduced
when their compensation exceeded Internal Revenue Code imposed limitations or when elective salary deferrals were made to FESP. The SERP was amended effective January 1, 2000 to exclude any benefit accruals after December 31, 1999
(interest continues to accrue) and to close entry into the Plan by any HCE hired after December 31, 1999.

Effective January 1,
2000, a Nondeferred Cash Balance Plan was adopted to provide comparable retirement type benefits to the HCEs in lieu of future accruals under the Salaried Pension Plan and the SERP. The comparable benefit amount is determined each year and
converted to a lump sum (reported as W-2 compensation) from which taxes are withheld and the net amount is deposited into the HCEs individual trust account (see Note E  Pension Plans).

FESP assets are the principal components of Other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheet, along with the value, if any, of
pension plan assets in excess of projected benefit obligations (see Note E  Pension Plans).

Self-Insurance

The Company self-insures its Ohio workers compensation claims up to $300,000 per claim. Initial self-insurance liabilities are accrued based on
prior claims history, including an amount developed for incurred but unreported claims. Active claims management and post accident drug testing in recent years have effected vast improvements in claims experience. Management performs a comprehensive
review each fiscal quarter and adjusts the self-insurance liabilities as deemed appropriate based on claims experience. Below is a summary of reductions or (increases) to the self-insurance liabilities that were credited to or (charged against)
earnings:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Companys financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accounts receivable, investments and
long-term debt. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents together with accounts payable and accounts receivable approximate their fair value based on their short term character. The fair value of long-term debt is disclosed in Note B 
Long-Term Debt. The Company does not use the fair value option for reporting financial assets and financial liabilities. Therefore, unrealized gains and losses are not reported in earnings. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (FASB Accounting Standards Codification) to establish the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by FASB to be applied in the preparation of financial statements that
conform with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP). Effective for all interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, legacy references to previously issued authoritative accounting
literature have not been used in the preparation of the financial statements contained herein for the 40 week and twelve week periods ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820 (ASC Topic 820), clarifies the definition of fair
value, provides a framework for the measurement of fair value, and expands disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820 was effective for fiscal years that begin after November 15, 2007 (fiscal year 2009) for financial
assets and liabilities. Its adoption on June 4, 2008 had no material effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations. The effective date of ASC Topic 820 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities is for
fiscal years that begin after November 15, 2008 (fiscal year 2010). Fair value measurements of non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities are used primarily in the impairment analyses of long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible
assets. Its adoption on June 3, 2009 had no material effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

Subsequent Events, FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 855 (ASC Topic 855), establishes general standards of accounting for and
disclosure of events occurring subsequent to the date of the balance sheet, but before financial statements are issued. ASC Topic 855 is applicable to the Companys interim and annual periods that end after June 15, 2009. The Company
evaluated all transactions that occurred after March 9, 2010 through the date the financial statements contained herein were issued. The evaluation determined that no material recognizable subsequent events had occurred.

Employers Disclosure about Post Retirement Benefit Plan Assets, FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715-20 (ASC Topic 715-20),
requires expanded disclosures about plan assets in an employers defined benefit pension or other post retirement plan. The expanded disclosures require information to be provided on how investment decisions are made, the major categories of
plan assets, input and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of plan assets, and concentrations of risk with plan assets. The Company will report the expanded disclosures required by ASC Topic 715-20 in its annual financial statements for
the period ending June 1, 2010.

The Company reviewed all other significant newly issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that
they are either not applicable to the Companys business or that no material effect is expected on the financial statements as a result of future adoption.

The Company has two loan agreements in place with the same lending
institution, under which the Company may not assume or permit to exist any other indebtedness. Both of these loan agreements were amended and restated in September 2009.

The Construction Draw Facility (the Facility) is an unsecured draw credit line intended to finance new restaurant construction. The September 2009
amendment increased the amount available to be borrowed from $4,500,000 to $8,000,000. As of March 9, 2010, the amount available to be borrowed had been reduced to $4,000,000, which reflects the sum of $4,000,000 borrowed during the third
quarter ended March 9, 2010. Unless it is extended sooner, permitted borrowing under the Facility will expire October 21, 2010.

The
Facility is subject to a commitment fee equal to .25 percent of the amount available to be borrowed. Under the terms of the Facility, funds borrowed are initially governed as a Construction Phase Loan, with interest determined by a pricing matrix
that uses changeable basis points, determined by certain of the Companys financial ratios. Interest is payable at the end of each specific rate period selected by the Company, which may be monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly. Within six months of
the completion and opening of each restaurant, the balance outstanding under each Construction Phase Loan must be converted to a Term Loan. Outstanding balances of loans initiated prior to September 2007 had to be converted with an amortization
period not to exceed seven years. Loans initiated in or after September 2007 may be converted with initial amortization periods of up to twelve years. For any Term Loan converted with an amortization period of less than twelve years, a one-time
option is available during the chosen term to extend the amortization period up to twelve years. Upon conversion to an amortizing Term Loan, the Company may select a fixed interest rate over the chosen term or may choose among various adjustable
rate options.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Third Quarter Fiscal 2010, Ended March 9, 2010

NOTE B  LONG-TERM DEBT (CONTINUED)



As of March 9, 2010, the aggregate outstanding balance under the Facility was $27,564,000,
consisting of $23,564,000 in Term Loans plus $4,000,000 in the Construction Phase awaiting conversion. Since the inception of the Facility, sixteen of the Term Loans ($37,500,000 out of $84,500,000 in original notes) have been retired as of
March 9, 2010. All of the outstanding Term Loans are subject to fixed interest rates, the weighted average of which is 6.09 percent, all of which are being repaid in 84 equal monthly installments of principal and interest aggregating $686,000,
expiring in various periods ranging from August 2010 through August 2016. Prepayments of the existing Term Loans are permissible upon payment of sizeable prepayment fees and other amounts. The September 2009 amendment to the Facility added a
breakfunding provision. For Term Loans initiated after September 2009, the Company has been granted the option at the time of conversion to include a small premium over the otherwise applicable fixed interest rate in exchange for the right to prepay
in whole or in part at anytime without incurring a prepayment fee.

The $4,000,000 balance in the Construction Phase of the Facility as of
March 9, 2010 was borrowed under two separate draws, both of which were subject to a variable interest rate of 1.6 percent. Unless the Facility is extended sooner, any outstanding amount in the Construction Phase that has not been converted
into a Term Loan on October 21, 2010 shall mature and be payable in full at that time.

The Revolving Credit Agreementis
comprised of three separate loans. Its primary function is to provide an unsecured Revolving Loan that allows for borrowing of up to $5,000,000 to fund temporary working capital needs through October 21, 2010, unless extended sooner. The
Revolving Loan, none of which was outstanding as of March 9, 2010, will mature and be payable in full October 21, 2010, unless extended sooner. It is subject to a 30 consecutive day out-of-debt period each year. Interest is determined by
the same pricing matrix used for Construction Phase Loans under the Construction Draw Facility. Interest is payable at the end of each specific rate period selected by the Company, which may be monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly. The loan is also
subject to a .25 percent unused commitment fee.

The 2007 Term Loan (a bullet loan prior to March 15, 2007) required 36 equal monthly
installments of $92,000 including principal and interest at a fixed 6.13 percent rate. The final payment was made March 15, 2010. The 2007 Term Loan was secured by mortgages that encumbered the real property of two Golden Corral restaurants
that had an approximate book value of $3,865,000 as of March 9, 2010.

The 2009 Term Loan was borrowed in September 2009 to fund the
acquisition of five Big Boy restaurants from the landlord of the facilities. (See Note C  Leased Property. Also see Litigation in Note H  Commitments and Contingencies.) The 2009 Term Loan requires 48 monthly installments of $89,000
including principal and interest at a fixed 3.47 percent rate. The final payment is due October 21, 2013. The 2009 Term Loan is unsecured.

Both the Construction Draw Facility and the Revolving Credit Agreement contain covenants relating to cash flows, debt levels, asset dispositions,
investments and restrictions on pledging certain restaurant operating assets. The Company was in compliance with all loan covenants as of March 9, 2010. Compensating balances are not required by these loan agreements.

The fair values of the fixed rate Term Loans within the Construction Draw Facility as shown in the following table are based on fixed rates that would be
available at March 9, 2010 if the loans could be refinanced with terms similar to the remaining terms under the present Term Loans. The carrying value of substantially all other long-term debt approximates fair value.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2010, Ended March 9, 2010

NOTE C  LEASED PROPERTY



Although the Companys policy is to own the property on which it operates restaurants, the Company
occupies certain of its restaurants pursuant to lease agreements. Most of the leases are for fifteen or twenty years and contain renewal options for ten to twenty years. As of March 9, 2010, 22 restaurants were in operation on non-owned
premises. All of the 22 leases are operating leases, of which fifteen are for Big Boy operations and seven are Golden Corral operations.

Five
Big Boy restaurant facilities, which had been occupied under month-to-month arrangements, were acquired from the landlord in September 2009 for the total sum of $4,000,000. The purchase prices had been the subject of litigation (see Litigation in
Note H  Commitments and Contingencies). Residual value guarantees of the five leases aggregating $2,101,000 were retired as a result of the acquisitions. The guarantees had been included as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheet
as of June 2, 2009 under the caption accrued expenses.

Office space is occupied under an operating lease that expires during
fiscal year 2013, with renewal options available through fiscal year 2023. A purchase option is available in 2023 to acquire the office property in fee simple.

During the third quarter ended March 9, 2010, the Company entered
a capital lease for land on which construction of a Big Boy restaurant has begun. Under the terms of the lease, the Company is required to acquire the land in fee simple estate after the tenth year. Delivery and other equipment is held under
capitalized leases expiring during various periods through fiscal year 2013.

An analysis of the capitalized leased property is shown in the
following table. Amortization of capitalized delivery and other equipment is based on the straight-line method over the primary terms of the leases.

NOTE D - CAPITAL STOCK

The Company has two equity compensation plans adopted respectively in 1993 and 2003.

2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan

Shareholders approved the 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan ((the 2003 Incentive Plan) or (Plan)) in October 2003. The 2003 Incentive Plan provides for
several forms of awards including stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards including restricted and unrestricted awards of stock, and performance awards. The Board of Directors adopted certain amendments in December 2006 to bring the
Plan into compliance with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Further amendments were adopted in October 2008 to meet final regulations relating to Section 409A of the IRC.

No award shall be granted under the Plan on or after October 6, 2013 or after such earlier date on which the Board of Directors may
terminate the Plan. The maximum number of shares of common stock that the Plan may issue is 800,000, subject, however, to proportionate and equitable adjustments determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the Committee) as
deemed necessary following the event of any equity restructuring that may occur.

The Plan provides that the total number of shares of common
stock covered by options plus the number of stock appreciation rights granted to any one individual may not exceed 80,000 during any fiscal year. Additionally, no more than 80,000 shares of common stock may be issued in payment of performance awards
denominated in shares, and no more than $1,000,000 in cash (or fair market value, if paid in shares) may be paid pursuant to performance awards denominated in dollars, granted to any one individual during any fiscal year if the awards are intended
to qualify as performance based compensation. Employees of the Company and non-employee members of the Board of Directors are eligible to be selected to participate in the Plan. Participation is based on selection by the Committee. Although there is
no limit to the number of participants in the Plan, there are approximately 40 persons currently participating in the Plan.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2010, Ended March 9, 2010

NOTE D  CAPITAL STOCK (CONTINUED)



Options to purchase shares of the Companys common stock permit the holder to purchase a fixed
number of shares at a fixed price. When options are granted, the Committee determines the number of shares subject to the option, the term of the option, which may not exceed ten years, the time or times when the option will become exercisable and
the price per share that a participant must pay to exercise the option. No option will be granted with an exercise price that is less than 100 percent of fair market value on the date of the grant. The option price and obligatory withholding taxes
may be paid pursuant to a cashless exercise/sale procedure involving the simultaneous sale by a broker of shares covered by the option.

Stock appreciation rights (SARs) are rights to receive payment, in cash, shares of common stock or a combination of the two, equal to the excess of
(1) the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of exercise over (2) the price per share of common stock established in connection with the grant of the SAR (the reference price). The reference price must be at least 100
percent of the common stocks fair market value on the date the SAR is granted. SARs may be granted by the Committee in its discretion to any participant, and may have terms no longer than ten years.

Stock awards are grants of shares of common stock that may be restricted (subject to a holding period or other conditions) or unrestricted. The Committee
determines the amounts, vesting, if any, terms and conditions of the awards, including the price to be paid, if any, for restricted awards and any contingencies related to the attainment of specified performance goals or continued employment or
service.

The Committee may also grant performance awards to participants. Performance awards are the right to receive cash, common stock or
both, at the end of a specified performance period, subject to satisfaction of the performance criteria and any vesting conditions established for the award.

As of March 9, 2010, options to purchase 290,250 shares had been cumulatively granted under the Plan, including 23,000 that belong to the President
and Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The outstanding options belonging to the CEO that were granted before October 2009 (20,000) vested six months from the date of the grant. Beginning in October 2009, options granted to the CEO pursuant to the
terms of his employment agreement (3,000) will vest one year from the date of the grant. Outstanding options granted to other key employees vest in three equal annual installments, while outstanding options granted to non-employee members of
the Board of Directors vest one year from the date of grant. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of all or any part of any awards held by a terminated participant, excluding, however, any participant who is terminated
for cause.

As of March 9, 2010, 547,250 shares remain available to be optioned, including 37,500 shares granted that were subsequently
forfeited, which are again available to be granted in accordance with the Re-Use of Shares provision of the Plan. There were 238,338 options outstanding as of March 9, 2010.

No other awardsstock appreciation rights, restricted stock award, unrestricted stock award or performance awardhave been granted under the
2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan as of March 9, 2010.

1993 Stock Option Plan

The 1993 Stock Option Plan was not affected by the adoption of the 2003 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. The 1993 Stock Option Plan originally authorized
the grant of stock options for up to 562,432 shares (as adjusted for changes in capitalization in earlier years) of the common stock of the Company for a ten-year period beginning in May 1994. Shareholders approved the Amended and Restated 1993
Stock Option Plan (Amended Plan) in October 1998, which extended the availability of options to be granted to October 4, 2008. The Board of Directors adopted certain amendments in December 2006 to bring the Amended Plan into compliance with the
American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

Options to purchase 556,228 shares were cumulatively
granted under the 1993 Stock Option Plan and the Amended Plan before granting authority expired on October 4, 2008. As of March 9, 2010, 269,981 shares granted remain outstanding, including 211,478 that belong to the CEO.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Shareholders approved the Employee Stock Option Plan (elsewhere referred to as Employee Stock Purchase Plan) in 1998. The Plan provides employees who have
completed 90 days of continuous service with an opportunity to purchase shares of the Companys common stock through payroll deduction. Immediately following the end of each semi-annual offering period, participant account balances are used to
purchase shares of stock measured at 85 percent of the fair market value of shares at the beginning of the offering period or at the end of the offering period, whichever is lower. The Plan authorizes a maximum of 1,000,000 shares that may be
purchased on the open market or from the Companys treasury. As of October 31, 2009 (latest available data), 145,488 shares had been cumulatively purchased through the Plan. Shares purchased through the Plan are held by the Plans
custodian until withdrawn or distributed. As of October 31, 2009, the custodian held 40,072 shares on behalf of employees.

Frischs Executive Savings Plan

Common shares totaling 58,492 (as adjusted for changes in capitalization in earlier years) were reserved for issuance under the non-qualified
Frischs Executive Savings Plan (FESP) (see Benefit Plans in Note A  Accounting Policies) when it was established in 1993. As of March 9, 2010, 40,792 shares remained in the FESP reserve, including 10,629 shares allocated but not
issued to participants.

There are no other outstanding options, warrants or rights.

Treasury Stock

As of March 9,
2010, the Companys treasury held 2,478,706 shares of the Companys common stock. Most of the shares were acquired in a series of repurchase programs authorized by the Board of Directors from 1998 through 2002, and through a modified
Dutch Auction self-tender offer in 1997.

Under the repurchase program authorized in January 2008, which expired in January 2010,
the Company acquired 38,681 shares over the two year life of the authorization at a cost of approximately $857,000. No shares were repurchased from June 3, 2009 through its expiration in January 2010.

On January 6, 2010, the Board of Directors authorized a new repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to 500,000 shares of common
stock in the open market or through block trades over a two year period that will expire January 6, 2012. No repurchases have been made to date.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Third Quarter Fiscal 2010, Ended March 9, 2010

NOTE D  CAPITAL STOCK (CONTINUED)



The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of the grant using the modified
Black-Scholes option pricing model, developed using the assumptions shown in the following table. No options were granted during the twelve weeks ended March 9, 2010, nor the twelve weeks ended March 10, 2009.



|                                       |  |             |            |              |   |

Dividend yield is based on the Companys
current dividend yield, which is considered the best estimate of projected dividend yields within the contractual life of the options. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Companys stock using the month end closing
price of the previous six years. Risk free interest rate is based on the U. S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods within the expected life of the option. Expected life represents the period of time the options are
expected to be outstanding.

As of March 9, 2010, there was $423,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock
options. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.0 year.

Compensation cost is also recognized in
connection with the Companys Employee Stock Purchase Plan (described elsewhere in Note D  Capital Stock). Compensation costs related to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, determined at the end of each semi-annual offering period 
October 31 and April 30, amounted to $28,000 and $34,000 respectively, during the forty weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009.

NOTE E  PENSION PLANS

As discussed more
fully under Benefit Plans in Note A  Accounting Policies, the Company sponsors two qualified defined benefit pension plans plus an unfunded non-qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) for highly compensated
employees (HCEs). Net periodic pension cost for all three retirement plans is shown below:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Third Quarter Fiscal 2010, Ended March 9, 2010

NOTE E  PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED)



The Company contributes amounts to the two qualified defined benefit pension plans that are sufficient
to satisfy legal funding requirements, plus discretionary tax-deductible amounts that may be deemed advisable. Although no contributions are needed to meet minimum legal funding requirements for the year that will end on June 1, 2010,
discretionary contributions are currently anticipated at a level of $1,625,000, including $775,000 that had been contributed through March 9, 2010. Obligations to participants in the SERP are satisfied in the form of a lump sum distribution
upon the retirement of the participants.

At the end of fiscal year 2009, the Companys equity was reduced by approximately $5,000,000,
net of tax, to recognize underfunding in the defined benefit pension plans, which was the direct result of steep market declines in the equity securities that comprise 70 percent of the target allocation of the pension plans assets. In
addition, the market declines will likely have a material adverse effect on future funding requirements and result in the recognition of much higher net periodic pension costs for years to come. Net periodic pension cost for the year that will end
June 1, 2010 is currently expected to be in the range of $2,500,000 to $2,600,000.

Compensation expense (not included in the net
periodic pension cost described above) relating to the Non Deferred Cash Balance Plan (see Benefit Plans in Note A  Accounting Policies) was $225,000 and $193,000 respectively, during the 40 weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10,
2009, and was $91,000 and $22,000 respectively, for the twelve weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009. Contributions of $317,000 and $216,000 were respectively made to the Plan in December 2009 and December 2008. In addition, the
compensation section of the President and Chief Executive Officers (CEO) employment agreement calls for additional annual contributions to be made to the trust established for the benefit of the CEO under the Non Deferred Cash Balance Plan
(see Benefit Plans in Note A  Accounting Policies) when certain levels of annual pretax earnings are achieved.

The Company also
sponsors two 401(k) defined contribution plans and a non-qualified Executive Savings Plan (FESP) for certain HCEs who have been disqualified from participation in the 401(k) plans (see Benefit Plans in Note A  Accounting Policies). In
the 40 weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009, matching contributions to the 401(k) plans amounted to $132,000 and $127,000 respectively, and were $42,000 and $38,000 respectively, during the twelve week periods ended March 9,
2010 and March 10, 2009. Matching contributions to FESP were $21,000 and $19,000 respectively, during the 40 weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009, and were $5,000 in each of the twelve week periods ended March 9, 2010 and
March 10, 2009.

The Company does not sponsor post retirement health care plans.

typically for periods of one year or less in duration; however, longer term agreements are also in place. Future minimum payments under these arrangements are $9,282,000, $4,817,000, $3,517,000 and $941,000 respectively, for the periods ending
March 9, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. These agreements are intended to secure favorable pricing while ensuring availability of desirable products. Management does not believe such agreements expose the Company to any significant risk.

Litigation

In April 2008, the Company
filed five separate lawsuits against the lessor of five properties on which the Company operates five Big Boy restaurants. The Companys complaints claimed breach of contract and asked for declaratory relief and specific performance to force
the lessor to allow the Company to purchase the underlying properties for certain amounts that are specified in the lease agreements, which taken together amounted to $2,472,000. The lessor claimed that the Company must purchase the properties for a
larger amount based upon alternative values in the lease agreements and market appraisal values. The lessor filed a lawsuit against the Company in April 2008. Its complaint asked for declaratory relief and specific performance as to the same
disputed leases.

The parties entered into a settlement agreement effective August 24, 2009, settling all claims and counterclaims that
had been asserted in the six lawsuits. In consideration of the settlement agreement, the lessor agreed to sell, and the Company agreed to purchase, the five properties for the total sum of $4,000,000. The real estate transactions were completed in
September 2009.

In the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, the Company received a check for $640,000 representing full and final payment of
the arbitration award in its long-standing case against the general contractor that had constructed a Golden Corral restaurant in Canton, Ohio in 2001, which the Company demolished in 2002 due to defective construction work by the contractor. In
addition to the cash received, $250,000 was credited to earnings to reverse a liability that had represented the contractors claim against the Company for the outstanding contract balance, which was eliminated when the award was made final.

The Company is subject to various other claims and suits that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Management does not
presently believe that the resolution of any claims currently outstanding will materially affect the Companys earnings, cash flows or financial position. Exposure to loss contingencies from pending or threatened litigation is continually
evaluated by management, which believes adequate provisions for losses are already included in the consolidated financial statements.

Other Contingencies

The Company
self-insures a significant portion of expected losses under its workers compensation program in the state of Ohio. Insurance coverage is purchased from an insurance company for individual claims that may exceed $300,000. (See Self Insurance in
Note A  Accounting Policies.) Insurance coverage is maintained for various levels of casualty and general and product liability.

Outstanding letters of credit maintained by the Company totaled $126,500 as of March 9, 2010.

As of March 9, 2010, the Company operated 22 restaurants on non-owned properties (see Note C  Leased Properties). Two of the leases provide
for contingent rental payments based on a percentage of the leased restaurants sales in excess of a fixed amount.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Third Quarter Fiscal 2010, Ended March 9, 2010

NOTE H  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)



The Company is secondarily liable for the performance of a ground lease that has been assigned to a
third party. The annual obligation of the lease approximates $48,000 through 2020. Since there is no reason to believe that the third party will default, no provision has been made in the consolidated financial statements for amounts that would be
payable by the Company. In addition, the Company has the right to re-assign the lease in the event of the third partys default.

NOTE I
 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Chief Executive Officer of the Company (Craig F. Maier), who also serves as a director of the Company,
owns a Big Boy restaurant licensed to him by the Company. Another officer and director of the Company (Karen F. Maier) is a part owner of a Big Boy restaurant that is licensed to her and her siblings (excluding Craig F. Maier). Until her death in
September 2009, Blanche F. Maier (the mother of Craig F. Maier and Karen F. Maier) served as a director of the Company. Certain other family members of Mrs. Maiers also own a licensed Big Boy restaurant.

These three restaurants are operated by the Company and pay to the Company franchise and advertising fees, employee leasing and other fees, and make
purchases from the Companys commissary. The total paid to the Company by these three restaurants amounted to $3,758,000 and $3,795,000 respectively, during the 40 weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009, and was $1,075,000 and
$1,081,000 respectively, during the twelve weeks ended March 9, 2010 and March 10, 2009. The amount owed to the Company from these restaurants was $88,000 and $86,000 respectively, as of March 9, 2010 and June 2, 2009. Amounts
due are generally settled within 28 days of billing.

All related party transactions described above were effected on substantially similar
terms as transactions with persons or entities having no relationship with the Company.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors from 1970 to
2005 (Jack C. Maier, deceased February 2005) had an employment agreement that contained a provision for deferred compensation. The agreement provided that upon its expiration or upon the Chairmans retirement, disability, death or other
termination of employment, the Company would become obligated to pay the Chairman or his survivors for each of the next ten years the amount of $214,050, adjusted annually to reflect 50 percent of the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price
Index (CPI). Monthly payments of $17,838 to the Chairmans widow (Blanche F. Maier), a director of the Company until her death in September 2009, commenced in March 2005. On March 1, 2010, the monthly payment was increased to $19,006 from
$18,753 in accordance with the CPI provision of the agreement. The present value of the long-term portion of the obligation to Mrs. Maiers Estate, approximating $816,000 is included in the consolidated balance sheet under the caption
Deferred compensation and other. The present value of the current portion of the obligation approximating $177,000 is included in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.

Forward-looking statements are included in this Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A).
Such statements may generally express managements expectations with respect to its plans, or its assumptions and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on the Company. There can be no assurances that such
expectations will be met or that future developments will not conflict with managements current beliefs and assumptions, which are inherently subject to risks and other uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results and performance to
differ materially from anticipated results that may be expressed or implied in forward-looking statements are included in, but not limited to, the discussion in this Form 10-Q under Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Sentences that contain words such as should, would, could, may, plan(s),
anticipate(s), project(s), believe(s), will, expect(s), estimate(s), intend(s), continue(s), assumption(s), goal(s),

All forward-looking information in this MD&A is provided by the Company pursuant to the safe harbor established under the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and should be evaluated in the context of all risk factors. Except as may be required by law, the Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements that may be contained in this MD&A.

This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements.

CORPORATE OVERVIEW

The operations of
Frischs Restaurants, Inc. and Subsidiaries (Company) consist of two reportable segments within the restaurant industry: full service family-style Big Boy restaurants and grill buffet style Golden Corral restaurants. As
of March 9, 2010, 89 Big Boy restaurants and 35 Golden Corral restaurants were owned and operated by the Company, located in various regions of Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana, plus smaller areas in Pennsylvania and West Virginia.

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements other than operating leases that are entered from time to time during the normal course of business.
The Company does not use special purpose entities.

The Companys Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 consists of the twelve weeks ended
March 9, 2010, and compares with the twelve weeks ended March 10, 2009, which constituted the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009. The First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 consists of the 40 weeks ended March 9, 2010, and
compares with the 40 weeks ended March 10, 2009, which constituted the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. The twelve-week third quarter is usually a disproportionately smaller share of annual revenue and earnings because it spans most
of the winter season from mid December through early March. References to Fiscal 2010 refer to the 52 week year that will end on June 1, 2010. References to Fiscal 2009 refer to the 52 week year that ended June 2, 2009.

Sales amounted to $64,873,000 during the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010, which was $2,812,000 or 4.2 percent lower than the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009.
Sales were adversely affected by a series of winter storms that produced record amounts of snowfall during the month of February in the Companys primary markets. Net earnings for the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 were $2,024,000, or diluted
earnings per share (EPS) of $.39, which compares with $3,410,000, or diluted EPS of $.66, in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009. The effective tax rate was 32 percent in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 versus 29 percent in the Second Quarter of
Fiscal 2009. Factors having a noteworthy effect on pretax earnings when comparing the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 with the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009:



| |  |  | Big Boy same store sales decreased 3.4 percent
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Golden Corral same store sales decreased 6.4 percent
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | As a percentage of sales, food costs decreased to 34.1 percent from 35.1 percent
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | As a percentage of sales, payroll and related costs increased to 33.7 percent from 32.7 percent
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | $890,000 was credited to pretax earnings in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009, the conclusion of long-standing litigation

Sales amounted to $221,753,000 during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010, decreasing 2.2 percent or
$4,910,000 below the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. Net earnings for the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 were $7,381,000, or diluted EPS of $1.42, which compares with $7,801,000, or diluted EPS of $1.51 in the First Three Quarters of
Fiscal 2009. The effective tax rate was 32 percent throughout the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010. It was 29 percent throughout the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. Factors having a noteworthy effect on pretax earnings when comparing the
First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 with the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009:



| |  |  | Big Boy same store sales decreased 1.2 percent
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------

| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Gains on sale of real estate  zero during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 vs. $1,116,000 in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Long-standing litigation was concluded in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009, resulting in $890,000 being credited to pretax earnings.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Increases in the minimum wage continue to place pressure on the Companys operating margins:



| |  |  | In Ohio, where more than two-thirds of the Companys payroll costs are incurred, the minimum wage for non-tipped employees was increased 33
percent from $5.15 per hour to $6.85 per hour beginning January 1, 2007. It was increased to $7.00 per hour on January 1, 2008 and to $7.30 per hour on January 1, 2009. There was no increase on January 1, 2010.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The minimum wage for tipped employees in Ohio increased 61 percent from $2.13 per hour to $3.43 per hour beginning January 1, 2007. It was
increased to $3.50 per hour on January 1, 2008 and to $3.65 per hour on January 1, 2009. There was no increase on January 1, 2010.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Federal minimum wage statutes currently apply to substantially all other (non-Ohio) employees. The federal minimum wage for non-tipped employees
increased from $5.15 per hour to $5.85 per hour in July 2007. It was increased to $6.55 per hour in July 2008 and to $7.25 per hour in July 2009. The rate for tipped employees (non-Ohio) was not affected by the federal legislation, remaining at
$2.13 per hour.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The effects of paying the required higher hourly rates of pay have effectively been countered through the
combination of higher menu prices charged to customers and reductions in the number of hours that employees are permitted to work. Without benefit of further reductions in labor hours, the July 2009 federal minimum wage increase to $7.25 per hour
would have increased annual payroll costs in non-Ohio restaurants by an estimated $400,000.

RESULTS of OPERATIONS

Sales

The Companys sales are
primarily generated through the operation of Big Boy restaurants and Golden Corral restaurants. Big Boy sales also include wholesale sales from the Companys commissary to restaurants licensed to other Big Boy operators and the sale of Big
Boys signature brand tartar sauce to grocery stores. Same store sales comparisons are a key metric that management uses in the operation of the business. Same store sales are affected by changes in customer counts and menu price increases.
Changes in sales also occur when new restaurants are opened and older restaurants are closed. Below is the detail of consolidated restaurant sales:

storms that produced record snowfall during the month of February 2010 was responsible for most of the decline in customer counts in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010. The Big Boy same store sales comparisons include average menu price increases of
1.0 percent and 1.4 percent implemented respectively in February 2010 and February 2009. Also included are increases of 1.0 percent and 2.4 percent implemented respectively in September 2009 and September 2008. Another increase is currently being
planned for September 2010.

count decrease of 6.7 percent) and a 4.0 percent decrease in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 (on a 5.4 decrease in customer counts). Record snowfall during the month of February 2010 contributed to the steep decline in customer counts during
the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010. The Golden Corral same store sales comparisons include average menu price increases of .5 percent (February 2010), .3 percent (May 2009), 2.5 percent (September 2008) and .5 percent (June 2008). The Golden Corral
operating segment has now experienced a same store sales decrease in 21 of the last 26 quarters.

The significant reductions in food and
paper cost percentages shown in the above table are the result of the continuing deflation in food costs combined with increased menu prices charged to customers. Commodity markets for beef, pork and seafood have experienced significant
year-over-year price reductions. Prices in these markets are expected to trend higher throughout 2010. Purchase contracts for some commodities may contain contractual provisions that limit the price the Company will pay. The Company does not use
financial instruments as a hedge against changes in commodity prices. Food and paper cost percentages in the Golden Corral segment are much higher than Big Boy because of the all-you-can-eat nature of the Golden Corral concept, as well as its use of
steak as a featured item on the buffet line.

Managements resolve to reduce the number of hours worked by hourly paid employees (in
response to mandated increases in the minimum wage) continued through the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010. In addition, the Golden Corral segment achieved additional reductions in hours by launching a program that allows customers to help
themselves to plates and silverware, which were previously brought to tables by servers. Despite the savings from the reductions in hours and higher menu prices charged to customers, several other factors continue to drive the payroll and related
percentages above levels in the comparable year ago periods. These factors include higher levels of incentive compensation, higher medical insurance premiums, higher pension costs and certain charges to increase the Companys reserves for its
self-insured workers compensation program.

Medical insurance premiums escalated by almost fifteen percent for the plan year that ended
December 31, 2009, rising to over $9,400,000. The Company typically absorbs 75 to 80 percent of the cost, with employees contributing the remaining 20 to 25 percent. Premium cost is currently expected to be 2.5 percent higher in the plan year
that began January 1, 2010. Management is currently evaluating health care reform legislation that was recently enacted by the federal government to determine the effects upon the Company.

Net periodic pension cost was $571,000 and $364,000 respectively, in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 and the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009. Net periodic
pension cost was $1,953,000 and $1,213,000 respectively, in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 and the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. The higher cost is primarily the result of Fiscal 2009s significant market losses in equity
securities, which is the principal investment vehicle of funds in the pension trusts. The market losses in Fiscal 2009 required underfunded status of the pension plans to be recognized at June 2, 2009, which resulted in a reduction in the
Companys equity of approximately $5,000,000, net of tax. Absent a material restoration in the values of the securities, future funding requirements will be adversely affected, and much higher levels of net periodic pension costs will need to
be recognized for years to come. Although no contributions are needed to meet minimum funding requirements for Fiscal 2010, discretionary contributions are currently planned at a level of $1,625,000, of which $775,000 had been contributed during the
First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010.

Management performs a comprehensive review each quarter of its self-insurance program for Ohio
workers compensation and adjusts its reserves as deemed necessary based on claims experience. The reserves were increased by $536,000 in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010, effected through a charge against earnings. The reserves were
decreasedcredited to earningsby $66,000 during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. Minimal adjustments to the reserves were recorded in both the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 and the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009.

Other operating costs include occupancy costs such as maintenance, rent, depreciation, property tax, insurance and utilities, plus costs relating to
field supervision, accounting and payroll preparation costs, franchise fees for Golden Corral restaurants, new restaurant opening costs and many other restaurant operating costs. As most of these expenses tend to be fixed costs, the percentages
shown in the above table are greatly affected by changes in same store sales levels. In other words, percentages rise when sales decrease and percentages will decrease when sales increase. Opening costs (all for Big Boy) were $193,000 during the
Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 and were $44,000 in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009. Opening costs (all for Big Boy) were $419,000 during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 and were $575,000 in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. Other
operating costs are a much higher percentage of sales for the Golden Corral segment (compared with the Big Boy segment) because they have a larger physical facility and sales volumes remain well below managements original expectations.

Operating Profit

To arrive
at the measure of operating profit, administrative and advertising expense is subtracted from gross profit, while franchise fees received and other revenue are added to it. Gains and losses from the sale of real property (if any) are then
respectively added or subtracted. Charges for impairment of assets (if any) are also subtracted from gross profit to arrive at the measure of operating profit. Operating profit in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009 and the First Three Quarters of
Fiscal 2009 included certain amounts (discussed below) credited to earnings in connection with the settlement of a long-standing legal matter.

Administrative and advertising expense increased $282,000 and $497,000 respectively, in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 and the First Three Quarters of
Fiscal 2010 when compared with comparable periods a year ago. The increases include higher accruals for incentive compensation and stock based compensation costs.

Revenue from franchise fees is based upon sales volumes generated by Big Boy restaurants that are licensed to other operators. The fees are based
principally on percentages of sales and are recorded on the accrual method as earned. As of March 9, 2010, 25 Big Boy restaurants were licensed to other operators and paying fees to the Company, a reduction of one restaurant from a year ago.
Other revenue also includes certain other fees earned from restaurants licensed to others along with minor amounts of rent and investment income.

There were no sales of real property during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010. Gains from the sale of real property amounted to $1,116,000 during
the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. The gains resulted primarily from the disposition in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 of a Big Boy restaurant that had ceased operations in June 2008. Aggregate proceeds amounted to $1,581,000.

##### Table of Contents

No impairment of assets was recorded during either the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 or the First
Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009.

During the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2009, the Company received a check for $640,000 representing full and final
settlement of the arbitration award in the long-standing case against the general contractor that had constructed a Golden Corral restaurant for the Company in Canton, Ohio in 2001, which the Company had to subsequently demolish due to defective
construction work by the contactor. In addition to the cash received, an additional credit to earnings of $250,000 was recorded to reverse a liability that had represented the general contractors claim against the Company for the outstanding
contract balance, which was eliminated when the award was made final.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $68,000 and $190,000 respectively, in the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010 and the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 when
compared with comparable year ago periods. The decreases are primarily the result of lower debt levels throughout most of the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 compared with the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense
as a percentage of pretax earnings has been estimated at 32 percent throughout the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 and was 29 percent throughout the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. The effective tax rate for Fiscal 2009 was ultimately
lowered to 28.2 percent. These rates have been kept consistently low through the use of tax credits, especially the federal credit allowed for Employer Social Security and Medicare Taxes Paid on Certain Employee Tips. These credits are generally
less favorable to the effective tax rate when higher levels of pretax earnings are achieved.

LIQUIDITY and CAPITAL RESOURCES

Sources of Funds

Food
sales to restaurant customers provide the Companys principal source of cash. The funds from sales are immediately available for the Companys use, as substantially all sales to restaurant customers are received in currency or are settled
by debit or credit cards. The primary source of cash provided by operating activities is net earnings plus depreciation. Other sources of cash may include borrowing against credit lines, proceeds received when stock options are exercised and
occasional sales of real estate. In addition to servicing debt, these cash flows are utilized for discretionary objectives, including capital projects (principally restaurant expansion) and dividends.

Working Capital Practices

The Company
has historically maintained a strategic negative working capital position, a common practice in the restaurant industry. The working capital deficit was $16,505,000 as of March 9, 2010 and was $16,552,000 as of June 2, 2009. As significant
cash flows are consistently provided by operations, and credit lines remain readily available, the continued use of this practice should not hinder the Companys ability to satisfactorily retire any of its obligations when due, including the
aggregated contractual obligations and commercial commitments shown in the following table.

As of March 9, 2010, $4,000,000 was available
to be borrowed under the Companys Construction Draw Credit Facility, which was net of $4,000,000 borrowed during the month of February 2010. In addition, a $5,000,000 Revolving Loan (currently unused) is readily available if needed to fund
temporary working capital needs. The Company is in compliance with the covenants contained in both of these credit facilities. The Company expects no difficulties in extending both facilities prior to their scheduled expirations in October 2010.

Operating Activities

Operating cash flows were $19,245,000 in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010, which compares with $16,484,000 in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal
2009. The increase in operating cash flows is primarily attributable to normal changes in assets and liabilities such as prepaid expenses, inventories and accounts payable, all of which fluctuate widely from quarter to quarter. Management measures
cash flows from the operation of the business by simply adding to net earnings certain non-cash expenses such as depreciation, losses (net of any gains) on disposition of assets, charges for impairment of assets (if any) and stock based compensation
cost. The result of this approach is shown as a sub-total in the consolidated statement of cash flows: $19,110,000 in the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 and $17,754,000 in the First Three quarters of Fiscal 2009.

Investing Activities

Capital spending
is the principal component of the Companys investing activities. Capital spending was $17,054,000 during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010, an increase of $4,141,000 from the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2009. This years capital
spending includes $13,952,000 for Big Boy restaurants and $3,102,000 for Golden Corral restaurants. These capital expenditures consisted of new restaurant construction and acquisitions of existing leased Big Boy restaurants from the landlords, plus
on-going reinvestments in existing restaurants including remodelings, kitchen and dining room expansions, routine equipment replacements and other maintenance capital expenditures.

There have been no proceeds from the disposition of real property during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010. Proceeds from the disposition of
property during the First Three quarters of Fiscal 2009 amounted to $1,584,000, primarily reflecting the sale of an older Big Boy restaurant that had ceased operations in June 2008. Its sale resulted in a gain of $1,072,000.

Financing Activities

Borrowing against
credit lines amounted to $8,000,000 during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010, $4,000,000 of which was borrowed during the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010. Scheduled and other payments of long-term debt and capital lease obligations amounted to
$6,532,000 during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010. Regular quarterly

cash dividends paid to shareholders during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010 amounted to $1,940,000. In addition, a $.13 per share dividend had been declared but not paid as of
March 9, 2010. Its payment of $664,000 on April 9, 2010 was the
197thconsecutive quarterly dividend paid by the Company.
The Company expects to continue its 49 year practice of paying regular quarterly cash dividends.

During the First Three Quarters of Fiscal
2010, 4,417 shares of the Companys common stock were issued pursuant to the exercise of stock options, yielding proceeds to the Company of approximately $94,000. As of March 9, 2010, 508,000 shares granted under the Companys two
stock option plans remained outstanding, including 416,000 fully vested shares at a weighted average exercise price per share of $20.65. As of March 9, 2010, 547,000 shares remained available to be granted under 2003 Stock Option and Incentive
Plan, which is net of 72,500 options granted during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010: 51,500 options were granted to employees in June 2009, and in October 2009, 3,000 options shares were granted to the Chief Executive Officer along with
18,000 to non-employee members of the Board of Directors.

Under a stock repurchase program that expired in January 2010, 38,681 shares of the
Companys common stock were acquired over the two year life of the authorization at a cost of approximately $857,000. No shares were repurchased from June 3, 2009 through the programs expiration in January 2010. On January 6,
2010, the Board of Directors authorized a new repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to 500,000 shares of its common stock over a two year period that will expire January 6, 2012. No repurchases have been made.

Other Information

One new Big Boy
restaurant opened for business during the First Three Quarters of Fiscal 2010  near Hamilton, Ohio (Cincinnati market) on November 30, 2009. In addition, a Big Boy restaurant facility opened on September 30, 2009 in Lawrenceburg,
Indiana (Cincinnati market), replacing an older facility. Three new Big Boy restaurants were under construction as of March 9, 2010, scheduled to open respectively in April 2010 in Independence, Kentucky (Cincinnati market), in Shepherdsville,
Kentucky (Louisville market) in May 2010 and in Louisville in June 2010. Near term construction is likely on two sites that were acquired in February 2010  one near Dayton, Ohio and the other in Elizabethtown, Kentucky (Louisville market).
Other promising sites are under contract for possible future acquisition and development. However, these contracts are cancellable at the Companys sole discretion while due diligence is pursued under the inspection period provisions of the
respective contracts.

Including land and land improvements, the cost to build and equip each new Big Boy restaurant currently ranges from
$2,500,000 to $3,400,000. The actual cost depends greatly on the price paid for the land and the cost of land improvements, which can vary widely from location to location, and whether the land is purchased or leased. Costs also depend on whether
the new restaurant is constructed using plans for the original newer building prototype (used since 2001) or its smaller adaptation that was developed in Fiscal 2010 for use in smaller trade areas. The smaller prototype is being used to build all
three of the Big Boy restaurants that were under construction as of March 9, 2010. The smaller prototype will also be used in construction on the two sites that were acquired in February 2010.

Approximately one-fifth of the Big Boy restaurants are routinely renovated or decoratively updated each year. The renovations not only refresh and
upgrade interior finishes, but are also designed to synchronize the interiors and exteriors of older restaurants with the newer prototype restaurants. The current cost to renovate a typical older restaurant ranges from $150,000 to $175,000. Newer
prototype restaurants also receive updates when they reach five years of age, the cost of which currently ranges from $80,000 to $90,000. In addition, certain high-volume Big Boy restaurants are regularly evaluated to determine whether their
kitchens should be redesigned for increased efficiencies and whether an expansion of the dining room is warranted. A typical kitchen redesign costs approximately $125,000 while a dining room expansion can cost up to $750,000.

Although the Company possesses development rights to open up to twelve more Golden Corral restaurants, no further development is currently planned and
there is no active search for sites on which to build. Three Golden Corral restaurant locations that were determined to have impairment of long-lived assets at the end of Fiscal 2008 remained in operation as of March 9, 2010.

Eleven Golden Corrals are being renovated in Fiscal 2010. In addition, carpeting is typically replaced in each restaurant every two and a half years on
average. The Fiscal 2010 Golden Corral remodeling budget, including replacement of carpeting, is approximately $1,800,000.

Although part of
the Companys strategic plan entails owning the land on which it builds new restaurants, it is sometimes necessary to enter ground leases to obtain desirable land on which to build. During the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2010, the Company entered a
capital lease for land on which construction of a Big Boy restaurant is now



35

##### Table of Contents

underway. Under the terms of the lease, the Company is required to acquire the land in fee simple estate after the tenth year. Seven of the 35 Golden Corral restaurants now in operation and three
Big Boy restaurants opened since 2003 were built on leased land. As of March 9, 2010, 22 restaurants were operating on non-owned premises, all of which are being accounted for as operating leases.

Five Big Boy restaurant facilities that had been occupied under month-to-month arrangements were acquired from the landlord in September 2009 for the
total sum of $4,000,000. The purchase prices had been the subject of litigation, which was settled in August 2009.

APPLICATION of CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America requires management to use estimates and assumptions to measure certain items that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying footnotes. These judgments are based on knowledge and experience about past
and current events, and assumptions about future events. Accounting estimates can and do change as new events occur and additional information becomes available. Actual results may differ markedly from current judgment.

Two factors are required for an accounting policy to be deemed critical. The policy must be significant to the fair presentation of a companys
financial condition and its results of operations, and the policy must require managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments. The Company believes the following to be its critical accounting policies.

Self Insurance

The Company self-insures
a significant portion of expected losses from its workers compensation program in the state of Ohio. The Company purchases coverage from an insurance company for individual claims in excess of $300,000. Reserves for claims expense include a
provision for incurred but not reported claims. Each quarter, the Company reviews claims valued by its third party administrator (TPA) and then applies experience and judgment to determine the most probable future value of incurred claims. As the
TPA submits additional new information, the Company reviews it in light of historical claims for similar injuries, probability of settlement, and any other facts that might provide guidance in determining ultimate value of individual claims.
Unexpected changes in any of these or other factors could result in actual costs differing materially from initial projections or values presently carried in the self-insurance reserves.

Pension Plans

Pension plan accounting
requires rate assumptions for future compensation increases and the long-term investment return on plan assets. A discount rate is also applied to the calculations of net periodic pension cost and projected benefit obligations. An informal committee
comprised of executives from the Finance Department and the Human Resources Department, with guidance provided by the Companys actuarial consulting firm, develops these assumptions each year. The consulting firm also provides services in
calculating estimated future obligations and net periodic pension cost.

To determine the long-term rate of return on plan assets, the
committee looks at the target asset allocation of plan assets and determines the expected return on each asset class. The expected returns for each asset class are combined and rounded to the nearest 25 basis points to determine the overall expected
return on assets. The committee determines the discount rate by looking at the projected future benefit payments and matches them to spot rates based on yields of high-grade corporate bonds. A single discount rate is selected, and then rounded to
the nearest 25 basis points, which produces the same present value as the various spot rates.

Assets of the pension plans are targeted to be
invested 70 percent in equity securities, as these investments have historically provided the greatest long-term returns. Poor performance in equity securities markets can significantly lower the market values of the plans investment
portfolios, which, in turn, can result in a) material increases in future funding requirements, b) much higher periodic pension costs to be recognized in future years, and c) the plans reaching underfunded status, requiring the Companys equity
to be reduced.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets include property and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets. Property and equipment typically approximates 85 to 90 percent of
the Companys total assets. Judgments and estimates are used to determine the carrying value of long-lived assets. This includes the assignment of appropriate useful lives, which affect depreciation and amortization expense. Capitalization
policies are continually monitored to assure they remain appropriate.



36



---

##### Table of Contents

Management considers a history of cash flow losses on a restaurant-by-restaurant basis to be the primary
indicator of potential impairment. Carrying values of property and equipment are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. When undiscounted expected future cash
flows are less than carrying values, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which carrying values exceed the greater of the net present value of the future cash flow stream or a floor value. Future cash flows can be difficult to predict.
Changing neighborhood demographics and economic conditions, and many other factors may influence operating performance, which affect cash flows. Floor values are generally determined by opinions of value provided by real estate brokers and/or
managements judgment as developed through its experience in disposing of property.

Sometimes it becomes necessary to cease operating a
certain restaurant due to poor operating performance. The ultimate loss can be significantly different from the original impairment charge, particularly if the eventual market price received from the disposition of the property differs materially
from initial estimates of floor values.

Acquired goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment annually or whenever an
impairment indicator arises.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE and QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES about MARKET RISKS

The Company has no significant market risk exposure to interest rate changes as substantially all of its debt is currently financed with
fixed interest rates. The Company does not currently use derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates. Any cash equivalents maintained by the Company have original maturities of three months or less. The
Company does not use foreign currency.

Operations in the Big Boy segment are vertically integrated, using centralized purchasing and food
preparation, provided through the Companys commissary and food manufacturing plant. Management believes the commissary operation ensures uniform product quality and safety, timeliness of distribution to restaurants and creates efficiencies
that ultimately result in lower food and supply costs. The commissary operation does not supply Golden Corral restaurants.

Commodity pricing
affects the cost of many of the Companys food products. Commodity pricing can be extremely volatile, affected by many factors outside of the Companys control, including import and export restrictions, the influence of currency markets
relative to the U.S dollar, supply versus demand, production levels and the impact that adverse weather conditions may have on crop yields. Certain commodities purchased by the commissary, principally beef, chicken, pork, dairy products, fish,
french fries and coffee, are generally purchased based upon market prices established with vendors. Purchase contracts for some of these items may contain contractual provisions that limit the price to be paid. These contracts are normally for
periods of one year or less but may have longer terms if favorable long-term pricing becomes available. Food supplies are generally plentiful and may be obtained from any number of suppliers, which mitigates the Companys overall commodity cost
risk. Quality, timeliness of deliveries and price are the principal determinants of source. The Company does not use financial instruments as a hedge against changes in commodity pricing.

Except for items such as bread, fresh produce and dairy products that are purchased from any number of reliable local suppliers, the Golden Corral
segment of the business currently purchases substantially all food, beverage and other menu items from the same approved vendor that Golden Corral Franchising Systems, Inc. (the Franchisor) uses in its operations. Deliveries are received twice per
week. Other vendors are available to provide products that meet the Franchisors specifications at comparable prices should the Company wish or need to make a change.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS and PROCEDURES

a) Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Companys Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) reviewed
and evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of March 9, 2010, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files under the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and
(ii) would be accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. The CEO and CFO have concluded that there were no significant changes in the
Companys internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 9, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

PART
IIOTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS



| | A. | In April 2008, the Company filed five separate lawsuits against 7373 Corporation (7373), the lessor of five properties on which the Company operates five Big Boy
restaurants. The Companys complaints claimed breach of contract and asked for declaratory relief and specific performance. In May 2008, 7373 filed its Answers and Counterclaims. The Company maintained that it should be allowed to purchase the
five underlying properties for certain amounts that were specified in the Lease Agreements, which taken together amounted to $2,471,540. 7373 claimed that the Company must purchase the properties for a larger amount based upon alternative values in
the Lease Agreements and market appraisal values.
| | -- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7373 filed a lawsuit against the Company in April 2008 that
asked for declaratory relief and specific performance as to the same disputed leases. In May 2008, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction, Or, In the Alternative, Motion to Abate.

The parties entered into a Settlement Agreement effective August 24, 2009, settling all claims and counterclaims that had been
asserted in the six lawsuits, which are listed below:



| |  |  | Case No. 08-CI-1079 was filed April 2, 2008 in Kenton County Circuit Court, Kenton County Kentucky.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Case No. 08-CI-609 was filed April 2, 2008 in Franklin County Circuit Court, Franklin County Kentucky.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Case No. 08-CI-1374 was filed April 25, 2008 in Kenton County Circuit Court, Kenton County Kentucky.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Case No. 08-CI-4671 was filed April 25, 2008 in Jefferson County Circuit Court, Jefferson County Kentucky.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Case No. 08CV71318 was filed April 25, 2008 in Warren County Court of Common Pleas, Warren County, Ohio.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Case No. 50-2008 CA009950XXXXMB was filed by 7373 on April 2, 2008 in Palm Beach County, Florida, Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial
Circuit.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The parties agreed to file with the respective courts an Agreed Order of Dismissal, with prejudice,
of all claims and counterclaims. In consideration of the Settlement Agreement, 7373 agreed to sell, and the Company agreed to purchase, the five properties for the total sum of $4,000,000. The real estate transactions were closed on
September 1, 2009.

| | B. | The Company is subject to various other claims and suits that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Management does not presently believe that the
resolution of any claims currently outstanding will result in a material effect on the Companys earnings, cash flows or financial position. Exposure to loss contingencies from pending or threatened litigation is continually evaluated by
management, which believes adequate provisions for losses have been included in the consolidated financial statements.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The Company continually takes reasonable preventive measures to reduce its risks and uncertainties.
However, the nature of some risks and uncertainties provides little, if any, control to the Company. The materialization of any of the operational and other risks and uncertainties identified herein, together with those risks not specifically listed
or those that are presently unforeseen, could result in significant adverse effects on the Companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows, which could include the permanent closure of any affected restaurant(s) with an
impairment of assets charge taken against earnings, and could adversely affect the price at which shares of the Companys common stock trade.

In addition to operating results, other factors can influence the volatility and price at which the Companys common stock trades. The
Companys stock is thinly traded on the NYSE Amex market. Thinly traded stocks can be susceptible to sudden, rapid declines in price, especially when holders of large blocks of shares seek exit positions. Rebalancing of stock indices in which
the Companys shares are placed such as the Russell 3000 Index can also influence the price of the Companys stock.

Food Safety

Food safety is the most significant risk to any company that operates in the restaurant industry. It is the focus of increased government
regulatory initiatives at the local, state and federal levels. To limit the Companys exposure to the risk of food contamination, management rigorously emphasizes and enforces the Companys food safety policies in all of the Companys
restaurants, and at the commissary and food manufacturing plant that the Company operates for Big Boy restaurants. These policies are designed to work cooperatively with programs established by health agencies at all levels of government authority,
including the federal Hazard Analysis of Critical Control Points (HACCP) program. In addition, the Company makes use of ServSafe Training, a nationally recognized program developed by the National Restaurant Association. The ServSafe program
provides accurate, up-to-date science-based information to all levels of restaurant workers on all aspects of food handling, from receiving and storing to preparing and serving. All restaurant managers are required to be certified in ServSafe
Training and are required to be re-certified every five years.

Failure to protect the Companys food supplies could result in food borne
illnesses and/or injuries to customers. Publicity of such events in the past has caused irreparable damages to the reputations of certain operators in the restaurant industry. If any of the Companys customers become ill from consuming the
Companys products, the affected restaurants may be forced to close. An instance of food contamination originating at the commissary operation could have far reaching effects, as the contamination would affect substantially all Big Boy
restaurants.

Economic Factors

Economic recessions can negatively influence discretionary spending in restaurants and result in lower customer counts, as consumers become more price
conscious, tending to conserve their cash as unemployment and economic uncertainty mount. The effects of higher gasoline prices can also negatively affect discretionary consumer spending in restaurants. Increasing costs for energy can affect profit
margins in other ways. Petroleum based material is often used to package certain products for distribution. In addition, suppliers may add surcharges for fuel to their invoices. The cost to transport products from the commissary to restaurant
operations will rise with each increase in fuel prices. Higher costs for natural gas and electricity result in much higher costs to heat and cool restaurant facilities and to refrigerate and cook food.

Inflationary pressure, particularly on food costs, labor costs (especially associated with increases in the minimum wage) and health care benefits, can
negatively affect the operation of the business. Shortages of qualified labor are sometimes experienced in certain local economies. In addition, the loss of a key executive could pose a significant adverse effect on the Company.

##### Table of Contents

Future funding requirements of the two qualified defined benefit pension plans that are sponsored by the
Company largely depend upon the performance of investments that are held in trusts that have been established for the plans. Equity securities comprise 70 percent of the target allocation of the plans assets. Poor performance in equity
securities markets can significantly lower the market values of the plans investment portfolios, which, in turn, can result in a) material increases in future funding requirements, b) much higher net periodic pension costs to be recognized in
future years, and c) the plans reaching underfunded status requiring reductions in the Companys equity to be recognized.

Competition

The restaurant industry is highly competitive and many of the Companys competitors are substantially larger and possess greater
financial resources than does the Company. Both the Big Boy and Golden Corral operating segments have numerous competitors, including national chains, regional and local chains, as well as independent operators. None of these competitors, in the
opinion of the Companys management, presently dominates the family-style sector of the restaurant industry in any of the Companys operating markets. That could change at any time due to:



| |  | changes in economic conditions
|- |  | ------------------------------



| |  | changes in demographics in neighborhoods where the Company operates restaurants
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | changes in consumer perceptions of value, food and service quality
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | changes in consumer preferences, particularly based on concerns with nutritional content of food on the Companys menus
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | new competitors that enter the Companys markets from time to time
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | increased competition from supermarkets and other non-traditional competitors
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | increased competition for quality sites on which to build restaurants
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Development Plans and Financing Arrangements

The Companys business strategy and development plans also face risks and uncertainties. These include the inherent risk of poor quality decisions in
the selection of sites on which to build restaurants, the ever rising cost and availability of desirable sites and increasingly rigorous requirements on the part of local governments to obtain various permits and licenses. Other factors that could
impede plans to increase the number of restaurants operated by the Company include saturation in existing markets and limitations on borrowing capacity and the effects of higher interest rates.

In addition, the Companys loan agreements include financial and other covenants with which compliance must be met or exceeded each quarter. Failure
to meet these or other restrictions could result in an event of default under which the lender may accelerate the outstanding loan balances and declare them immediately due and payable.

The Supply and Cost of Food

Food
purchases can be subject to significant price fluctuations that can considerably affect results of operations from quarter to quarter and year to year. Price fluctuations can be due to seasonality or any number of factors. The market for beef, in
particular, continues to be highly volatile due in part to import and export restrictions. Beef costs can also be affected by bio-fuel initiatives and other factors that influence the cost to feed cattle. The Company depends on timely deliveries of
perishable food and supplies. Any interruption in the continuing supply would harm the Companys operations.

Litigation and Negative
Publicity

Employees, customers and other parties bring various claims against the Company from time to time. Defending such claims can
distract the attention of senior level management away from the operation of the business. Legal proceedings can result in significant adverse effects to the Companys financial condition, especially if other potential responsible parties lack
the financial wherewithal to satisfy a judgment against them or the Companys insurance coverage proves to be inadequate. Also, see Legal proceedings in Part II, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

In addition, negative publicity associated with legal claims against the Company, whether or not such complaints are valid, could harm the Companys
reputation, which, in turn, could adversely affect operating results. The Companys reputation and brand can also be harmed by operational problems experienced by other operators of Big Boy and Golden Corral restaurants, especially from issues
relating to food safety. Other negative publicity such as that arising from rumor and innuendo spread through social internet media and other sources can create adverse effects on the Companys results of operations.

Governmental and Other Rules and Regulations

Governmental and other rules and regulations can pose significant risks to the Company. Examples include:



| |  | general exposure to penalties or other costs associated with the potential for violations of numerous governmental regulations, including:
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | immigration (I-9) and labor regulations regarding the employment of minors

|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | legislation requiring costly nutritional labeling on menus and the Companys reliance on the accuracy of information obtained from third party
suppliers
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | legislation or court rulings that result in changes to tax codes that are adverse to the Company
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | changes in accounting standards imposed by governmental regulators or private governing bodies could adversely affect the Companys financial
position
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | estimates used in preparing financial statements and the inherent risk that future events affecting them may cause actual results to differ markedly
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Catastrophic Events

Unforeseen catastrophic events could disrupt the Companys operations, the operations of the Companys suppliers and the lives of the
Companys customers. The Big Boy segments dependency on the commissary operation in particular could present an extensive disruption of products to restaurants should a catastrophe impair its ability to operate. Examples of catastrophic
events include but are not limited to:



| |  |  | adverse winter weather conditions
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | natural disasters such as earthquakes or tornadoes
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | fires or explosions
| | - |  | -------------------



| |  |  | widespread power outages
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | criminal acts, including bomb threats, robberies, hostage taking, kidnapping and other violent crimes
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acts of terrorists or acts of war
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | civil disturbances and boycotts
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | disease transmitted across borders that may enter the food supply chain
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Technology and Information Systems

The
strategic nature of technology and information systems is of vital importance to the operation of the Company. Events that could pose threats to the operation of the business include:



| |  |  | catastrophic failure of certain information systems
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties that may arise in maintaining existing systems
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties that may occur in the implementation of and transition to new systems
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | financial stability of vendors to support software over the long term
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, security violations or any unauthorized access to information systems could result in the loss of proprietary data; consumer confidence may
be lost if protection of consumer privacy should be compromised.

Golden Corral Operations

Golden Corral same-store sales declines have been experienced for 21 of the last 26 quarters, during which cash flows from Golden Corral operations have
sometimes deteriorated. The ability of the Company to reverse the downturn and permanently restore sales and margin growth poses a significant risk to the Company.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES of EQUITY SECURITIES and USE of PROCEEDS

On January 6, 2010, the Board of Directors authorized a new repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to 500,000 shares of common
stock in the open market or through block trades over a two-year period that will expire January 6, 2012. The new authorization replaced a similar program that expired in January 2010. No repurchases of common stock under either program were
