AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT (this Agreement) is made and entered into as of the 21 day of October, 2010 by and between (i) FRISCHS RESTAURANTS, INC., an
Ohio corporation (the Borrower ), and (ii) U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association formerly known as Firstar Bank, N.A. and Star Bank, National Association, and its successors and assigns (the
Bank), and amends and restates (a) the Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement [Golden Corral] made and entered into as of October 21, 2009 by and between the Borrower and the Bank, as amended and (b) the
Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement [Revolving and Bullet Loans] made and entered into as of October 21, 2009 by and between the Borrower and the Bank, as amended (collectively the Prior Loan Agreements).

1. Representations and Warranties. To induce the Bank to enter into this Agreement and to agree to make and/or to
continue the Loans described in Section 4 hereof, the Borrower makes the following representations and warranties:

(a)
Existence. The Borrower is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing as a corporation under the laws of the State of Ohio, and each Subsidiary (as hereinafter defined) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under
the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. The Borrower and each Subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified by the Borrower or the
Subsidiary would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects or financial condition. Subsidiary for purposes hereof means any corporation or other entity, the majority of the voting stock of which is owned,
directly or indirectly, beneficially or of record, by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or which is otherwise controlled, directly or indirectly, by the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

(b) Authority. The Borrower and each Subsidiary has full power and authority to own its properties and to conduct its business as
such business is now being conducted, and the Borrower has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform under this Agreement, the Notes (as hereinafter described) and all other documents and instruments executed in connection with or
otherwise relating to this Agreement or the Loans (as hereinafter defined) (collectively, the Loan Documents).

(c) Borrowing Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents: (i) have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate
action; (ii) do not and will not violate (A) any provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation, (B) any order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or other agency of government, (C) the Articles of Incorporation or
Code of Regulations or other organizational or governing documents of the Borrower, or (D) any provision of any agreement (including, without limitation, any agreement with stockholders) to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is a party or
subject, or by which it or any of its properties or assets are bound; (iii) do not and will not result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of the properties or assets of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary; and (iv) do not and will not require any consent, approval or other action by or any notice to or filing

Exhibit 10.1



with any court or administrative or governmental body. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Borrower and constitute the legal, valid
and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

(d)
Financial Information and Reports. Exhibit A to this Agreement is a complete list of the financial statements and projected financial statements furnished by the Borrower to the Bank in connection with the borrowings to be made
hereunder. Each such historical financial statement fairly presents in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the results of their operations as of the date (or with
respect to the period) noted in such financial statements. Other than any liability incident to any actions described in Exhibit B to this Agreement, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has any material contingent liabilities
required to be disclosed under generally accepted accounting principles which are not provided for or disclosed in such financial statements. Each such statement (including any related schedule and/or notes) is true, correct and complete in all
material respects (subject, as to interim statements, to changes resulting from audits and year-end adjustments) and has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently followed throughout the periods involved.
No such statement omits to state a material fact necessary to make such statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it was made. There has been no material adverse change in the business, operations or condition (financial or
otherwise) of the Borrower or any Subsidiary since the date of such financial statements.

(e) Indebtedness. Neither
the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has any Indebtedness (as hereinafter defined) other than Permitted Indebtedness (as hereinafter defined), or has guaranteed the obligations of any other person (except by endorsement of negotiable instruments payable
on sight for deposit or collection or similar banking transactions in the usual course of business), and to the best of the Borrowers knowledge after diligent investigation, there exists no default under the provisions of any instrument
evidencing any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or of any agreement relating thereto. Indebtedness as used herein means all indebtedness for borrowed money which in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles would be considered as a liability, all rental obligations under leases required to be capitalized under generally accepted accounting principles (Capital Leases), all guarantees and other contingent
obligations in respect of, or obligations to purchase or otherwise acquire, Indebtedness of others, and Indebtedness of others secured by any lien on property owned by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, whether or not the Borrower or such Subsidiary
has assumed such Indebtedness.

(f) Actions. There is no action, suit, investigation or proceeding pending or, to the
knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary before any court, arbitrator or administrative or governmental agency except for those described in Exhibit B to this Agreement, none of which
might result in any material adverse change in the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, nor, to the best of the Borrowers knowledge after diligent investigation, is there any basis for
any such action which might result in such a material adverse change.

Exhibit 10.1



(g) Title to Property. The Borrower and
each Subsidiary has good and marketable title to its real properties (other than properties which it leases as lessee) and good title to all of its other properties and assets, including the properties and assets reflected in the most recent balance
sheet described in Exhibit A hereto (other than properties and assets disposed of in the ordinary course of business since the date thereof), free and clear of all liens, mortgages, pledges, security interests, encumbrances or charges
of any kind, including any agreement to give any of the foregoing, any conditional sale or other title retention agreement or any lease in the nature thereof (each, a Lien), other than the following (each, a
Permitted Lien): (i) Liens described on Exhibit C hereto, (ii) leases required under generally accepted accounting principles to be capitalized on the Borrowers or such Subsidiarys books
(Capitalized Leases) so long as there is no violation of any of the Financial Covenants set forth on Exhibit D hereto, and (iii) Liens in favor of the Bank. The Borrower and each Subsidiary is in
undisturbed possession under all leases necessary in any material respect for the operation of its business, and no such leases contain any unusual or burdensome provisions which might materially affect or impair the Borrowers or the
Subsidiarys operations thereunder. All such leases are valid and in full force and effect.

(h) Employee Benefit
Plans. To the best of the Borrowers knowledge after diligent investigation, no reportable event or prohibited transaction, as defined by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA) has occurred or is continuing, as to any plan of the Borrower or any of its affiliates which poses a threat of taxes or penalties against or termination of such plans (or trusts related thereto). Neither the
Borrower nor any of its affiliates has violated in any material respect the requirements of any qualified pension benefit plan, as defined by ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or done anything to create any material liability
under the Multi-Employee Pension Plan Amendment Act. Neither the Borrower nor any of its affiliates has incurred any material liability to the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation (the PBGC) in connection with such plans,
including, but not limited to, any funding deficiency (as defined by ERISA).

(i) Purpose of Loans.
Proceeds of the Revolving Loan shall be used to fund temporary working capital needs and general corporate purposes. The Construction Loans shall be used only for the purpose of financing the construction and opening and/or the refurbishing of
Golden Corral Restaurants and Big Boy Restaurants (collectively, the Restaurants). The Stock Repurchase Loans shall be used only for the purpose of financing the repurchase of Borrowers shares of stock from its
shareholders. The 2009 Term Loan refinanced certain borrowings that were outstanding under the Revolving Loan in 2009. The Revolving Loan, Construction Loans, Stock Repurchase Loans and the 2009 Term Loan are collectively referred to herein as the
Loans. None of the Loans are nor shall be secured, directly or indirectly, by any stock for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock or for any purpose which would violate either Regulation U, 12 C.F.R. Part
221, or Regulation X, 12 C.F.R. Part 224, promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

(j)
Compliance. The Borrower and each Subsidiary is in compliance in all material respects with all laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations and orders of any governmental entity (including, but not by way of limitation, any such laws,
statutes, ordinances, rules, regulations and orders related to ecology, human health and the environment) applicable to it.

(k) Adverse Contracts and Conditions.
Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is a party to any contract or agreement, or subject to any charge, restriction, judgment, decree or order, materially and adversely affecting its business, property, assets, operations or condition, financial
or otherwise, nor a party to any labor dispute. There are no restrictions applicable to any Subsidiary which might limit its ability to pay dividends or make loans to the Borrower.

(l) Taxes. The Borrower and each Subsidiary has filed all federal, state and local tax returns and other reports which it is
required by law to file, has paid all taxes, assessments and other similar charges that are due and payable, other than taxes, if any, being contested by the Borrower or a Subsidiary in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been
established in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and has withheld all employee and similar taxes which it is required by law to withhold. Federal income tax returns of the Borrower and each Subsidiary have been examined by
the taxing authorities or closed by applicable statutes and satisfied for all fiscal years prior to and including the Borrowers 2006 fiscal year end. Federal income tax returns of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the Borrowers 2007
fiscal year end and all years thereafter may still be examined by the taxing authorities.

2. Borrowers

Covenants set forth on Exhibit D hereto and (B) stating that, to the best of such Chief Financial Officers knowledge after diligent investigation, no Event of Default hereunder then exists, or if such an Event of Default
hereunder does then exist, specifying the nature thereof, the period of existence thereof, and the action the Borrower proposes to take with respect thereto. The Borrower further agrees that promptly upon the President or Chief Financial Officer of
the Borrower obtaining knowledge of an event that constitutes an Event of Default hereunder, the Borrower shall deliver to the Bank a certificate specifying the nature thereof, the period of existence thereof, and the action the Borrower proposes to

Loan Commitment Amount) or (B) the amount necessary to construct and open the Restaurants (collectively, the Construction Loans).

The Borrower shall provide the Bank notice of the Borrowers desire to obtain Construction Loan proceeds for the purpose of
constructing and opening any particular Restaurant, which notice shall state the amount of the Construction Loan requested and the location of the particular Restaurant. The term Business Day as used herein shall mean any
day other than a Saturday, Sunday or holiday on which banks in Cincinnati, Ohio are required or authorized by law to close. The Construction Loans shall be effectuated by the Bank crediting an account maintained by the Borrower at the Bank. No
repayment or prepayment of the Construction Loans shall be reason for any relending or additional lending of proceeds of the Construction Loans to the Borrower, and no Construction Loan proceeds shall be disbursed after April 15, 2012. The
outstanding principal balance of each Construction Loan which has not been converted into a Construction Term Loan (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with the next paragraph hereof (such Construction Loans which have not been so converted being
collectively referred to herein as Construction Period Construction Loans) shall mature and be payable in full on April 15, 2012 (the Construction Loan Maturity Date), unless the maturity
thereof is accelerated as described herein. As of October 21 2010, as a result of the prior draws by the Borrower under the Construction Loans and prior conversions of Construction Period Construction Loans to Construction Term Loans, of the
maximum One Hundred Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($106,500,000) Construction Loan facility, (i) Ninety One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($91,500,000) has been drawn by the Borrower under the Construction Loans and already

Construction Period Construction Loans. The Construction Loans shall be evidenced by a Promissory Note in substantially the form of Exhibit F attached hereto, as the same may be amended and/or restated from time to time (the
Construction Period Construction Note). The Construction Period Construction Note shall replace the Ninth Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated as of October 21, 2009 given by the Borrower to the Bank (the
Prior Construction Note), and amounts outstanding under the Prior Construction Note shall not be deemed cancelled or satisfied, but shall be evidenced by the Construction Period Construction Note instead of by the Prior
Construction Note.

Upon the substantial completion of construction of each Restaurant the construction or opening of which
has been financed with Construction Loan proceeds, the Borrower shall promptly notify the Bank in writing of the date thereof (each such date being referred to herein as a Completion Date). Within six (6) months after
the Completion Date of each such Restaurant, the Borrower shall elect to convert the outstanding principal balance of all Construction Loans obtained for the purpose of constructing or opening of such Restaurant to a term loan with a maturity date

(10) Business Days prior written notice to the Bank of (i) the date on which the Borrower desires such conversion to be effective (the Construction Loan Conversion Date), which date must be the first day of a
calendar month and not later than the date which is six (6) months after the Completion Date, (ii) the maturity date elected by the Borrower for such Construction Term Loan (each, a Construction Term

Loan Maturity Date; which Construction Term Loan Maturity Date shall be no later than the date which is twelve (12) years after the Construction Loan Conversion Date,
(iii) if the Borrower desires that such Construction Term Loan bear interest at the Cost of Funds-Based Rate (as hereinafter defined), the irrevocable commitment by the Borrower to accept and be bound by its election of such Cost of Funds-Based
Rate until the Construction Term Loan Maturity Date of such Construction Term Loan or as otherwise expressly provided herein, and (iv) if the Borrower desires that such Construction Term Loan be a LIBOR Rate Loan (as hereinafter defined), its
election of such LIBOR Rate Loan and election of one of the 1, 2 or 3 month LIBOR rate as described in Section 4(b)(i). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall have the option to extend the Construction Term Loan
Maturity Date of any Construction Term Loan having both a Construction Loan Conversion Date after December 3, 2007 and an original Construction Term Loan Maturity Date of less than twelve (12) years from the Construction Loan Conversion
Date once during the term thereof to a date not later than twelve (12) years after the Construction Conversion Date, by providing no less than thirty (30) days written notice to the Bank of its intent to exercise such option.

Each Construction Term Loan which bears interest at the Cost of Funds-Based Rate shall be evidenced by a Promissory Note in
substantially the form of Exhibit G-1 attached hereto with all blanks appropriately completed and each Construction Term Loan which does not bear interest at the Cost of Funds-Based Rate shall be evidenced by a Promissory Note in
substantially the form of Exhibit G-2 attached hereto with all blanks appropriately completed (each, a Construction Term Note; the Construction Term Notes and the Construction Period Construction Note are
sometimes collectively referred to herein as the Construction Notes).

(ii) Revolving Loan.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and subject to there being no Event of Default (or event which might, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, mature into an Event of Default) hereunder, the Bank agrees to lend and
relend to the Borrower, upon request by the Borrower made to the Bank in the manner described in Sections 4(b) and (c) below, during the period from the date hereof to the earlier of (A) April 15, 2012, or the
termination date of any extension hereof agreed to by the Borrower and the Bank as described below, or (B) the date of the occurrence of an Event of Default, unless waived by the Bank (the earlier of such dates being referred to herein as the
Revolver Commitment Termination Date), a principal sum of up to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the Total Revolver Commitment Amount), as the Borrower may from time to time request for the
Borrowers working capital needs (the Revolving Loan); provided, however, that the Bank shall not be required to make, and the Borrower shall not be entitled to receive, any Revolving Loan if, after giving effect
thereto, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan would exceed the Total Revolver Commitment Amount.

Each Revolving Loan hereunder shall be in the amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) or a multiple thereof. The Revolving
Loan shall be evidenced by a Nineteenth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Promissory Note given by the Borrower to the Bank in substantially the form of Exhibit H attached hereto, as amended and/or restated from time to time (the
Revolving Note). The Revolving Note shall mature and be payable in full on April 15, 2012, unless accelerated or extended as described herein. The Revolving Note shall replace the Eighteenth Amended and Restated
Revolving Credit Promissory Note dated as of October 21, 2009 given by the Borrower to the Bank (the Prior Note), and amounts

Exhibit 10.1



outstanding under the Prior Note shall not be deemed cancelled or satisfied, but shall be evidenced by the Revolving Note instead of by the Prior Note. If the outstanding principal balance of the
Revolving Loan at any time exceeds the Total Revolver Commitment Amount, the Borrower shall immediately, without notice or demand, reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan such that the Total Revolver Commitment Amount is not
exceeded.

Upon request by the Borrower, the Bank may consider extensions of the Revolver Commitment Termination Date, but is
not hereby committing in any way thereto. Upon any such extension, at the option of the Bank, the Borrower shall execute a new promissory note substantially identical to the Revolving Note, except reflecting the new Revolver Commitment Termination
Date, which thereupon shall be the Revolving Note hereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrower
covenants and agrees to pay down the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loan and the Revolving Note to Zero Dollars ($0) for not less than thirty (30) consecutive days during each of the Borrowers fiscal years, having commenced with the
Borrowers fiscal year beginning on June 3, 2002.

(iii) 2009 Term Loan. As of October 21, 2009, the
Bank agreed to make to the Borrower, and the Borrower borrowed from the Bank, a term loan in the aggregate amount of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) (the 2009 Term Loan). As of the date hereof, the remaining unpaid
principal amount of the 2009 Term Loan is Three Million Fifty Two Thousand Twenty Dollars and 66/100 ($3,052,020.66). The maturity date of the 2009 Term Note is October 21, 2013, unless accelerated or extended as described herein (the
2009 Term Loan Maturity Date). The 2009 Term Loan is evidenced by that certain Promissory Note in the original principal amount of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) dated October 21, 2009 issued by the Borrower to the
Bank, as the same may be amended and/or restated from time to time (the 2009 Term Note). The 2009 Term Note is subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(iv) Stock Repurchase Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and subject to there being no Event of Default
(or event which might, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, mature into an Event of Default) hereunder, the Bank agrees to make loans to the Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed the lesser of (A) Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000) (the Stock Repurchase Loan Commitment Amount) or (B) the aggregate repurchase price of the aggregate number of shares of the Borrowers common stock to be to repurchased authorized by the board of
directors of the Borrower (collectively, the Stock Repurchase Loans).

For each request to the Bank
to make a Stock Repurchase Loan, the Borrower shall provide the Bank (A) written notice of the Borrowers desire to obtain Stock Repurchase Loan proceeds for the purpose of repurchasing shares of the Borrowers common stock, which
notice shall state the amount of the Stock Repurchase Loan requested, the number of shares of common stock of the Borrower to be repurchased, and the repurchase price(s) per share of the common stock of the Borrower and (B) if the Borrower

Bank. No repayment or prepayment of the Stock Repurchase Loans shall be reason for any relending or additional lending of proceeds of the Stock Repurchase Loans to the Borrower, and no Stock
Repurchase Loan proceeds shall be disbursed after April 15, 2012. The outstanding principal balance of each Stock Repurchase Loan which has not been converted into a Stock Repurchase Term Loan (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with the
next paragraph hereof (such Stock Repurchase Loans which have not been so converted being collectively referred to herein as Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loans) shall mature and be payable in full on April 15, 2012 (the
Stock Repurchase Loan Maturity Date), unless the maturity thereof is accelerated as described herein. The Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loans shall be evidenced by a Promissory Note in substantially the form of Exhibit
I attached hereto, as the same may be amended and/or restated from time to time (the Short-Term Stock Repurchase Note).

The outstanding principal balance of each Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loan shall be converted to a term loan with a maturity date (each, a Stock Repurchase Term Loan Maturity
Date that is seven (7) years after the Stock Repurchase Loan Conversion Date (each such Stock Repurchase Loan being referred to herein as a Stock Repurchase Term Loan), by providing ten (10) Business
Days prior written notice to the Bank of (i) the date on which the Borrower desires such conversion to be effective (the Stock Repurchase Loan Conversion Date), which date must be the first day of a calendar month and

(b) Interest.

(i) Construction Loan, Stock Repurchase Loan.

or (B) the end of each Loan Period (as hereinafter defined)), adjusted for any reserve

requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation (a LIBOR Rate Loan).

The term New York Banking Day means any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which commercial banks are
open for business in New York, New York.

In the event the Borrower does not timely select an interest rate option at least
two New York Banking Days before the end of the Loan Period for a Construction Loan and/or a Stock Repurchase Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan, the funds advanced under such Construction Loan and/or Stock Repurchase Loan shall, beginning on the first
day of the new Loan Period, accrue interest at the 1 month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to commencement such Loan Period.

The term Loan Period means the period commencing on the advance date (or the Conversion Date) of the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan and ending on the numerically corresponding day 1,
2, or 3 months thereafter matching the interest rate term selected by the Borrower; provided, however, (A) if any Loan Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a New York Banking Day, then the Loan Period shall end on the next
succeeding New York Banking Day unless the next succeeding New York Banking Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the Loan Period shall end on the immediately preceding New York Banking Day; or (B) if any Loan Period begins on the
last New York Banking Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of the Loan Period), then the Loan Period shall end on the last New York Banking Day of the calendar
month at the end of such Loan Period.

No Construction Period Construction Loan may extend beyond the Construction Loan
Maturity Date. No Stock Repurchase Loan may extend beyond the Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loan Maturity Date. In any event, if the Loan Period for a Construction Period Construction Loan should happen to extend beyond the Construction Loan Maturity
Date, such Construction Period Construction Loans must be prepaid at the Construction Loan Maturity Date. Likewise, if the Loan Period for a Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loan should happen to extend beyond the Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loan
Maturity Date, such Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loans must be prepaid at the Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loan Maturity Date. Each Construction Loan and each Stock Repurchase Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($500,000) and in increments of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) thereafter.

If a LIBOR Rate Loan is prepaid
prior to the end of the Loan Period, as defined above, for such loan, whether voluntarily or because prepayment is required due to such loans maturing or accelerating upon default or otherwise, the Borrower agrees to pay all of the Banks
costs, expenses, and Interest Differential (as determined by the Bank) incurred as a result of such prepayment. The term Interest Differential shall mean that sum equal to the greater of zero or the financial loss incurred
by the Bank resulting from prepayment, calculated as the difference between the amount of interest the Bank would have earned (from like investments in the Money Markets as of the first day of the LIBOR Rate Loan) had prepayment not occurred and the
interest the Bank will actually earn (from like investments in the Money Markets as of the date of prepayment) as a result of the redeployment of funds from the prepayment. Because of the



- 16 -



---



Exhibit 10.1



short-term nature of the LIBOR Rate Loans, the Borrower agrees that the Interest Differential shall not be discounted to its present value. Any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in an
amount equal to the remaining entire principal balance of such loan. The term Money Markets refers to one or more wholesaling funding markets available to and selected by the Bank, including negotiable certificates of
deposit, commercial paper, Eurodollar deposits, bank notes, federal funds, interest rate swaps, or others.

Borrowers ratio of Senior Bank Debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the period commencing on the first day of the Borrowers then-current fiscal year and ending on the last day of the second quarter of such fiscal year and on each September 1
for application to the period commencing on such date in accordance with the Borrowers ratio of Senior Bank Debt to Adjusted EBITDA for the period commencing on the first day of the Borrowers immediately preceding fiscal year and ending
on the last day of such fiscal year, as follows: if the Borrowers ratio of Senior Bank Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is 1.50 to 1.0 or greater, the LIBOR Rate Margin shall be one hundred eighty (180) basis points; if the Borrowers ratio
of Senior Bank Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is less than 1.50 to 1.0 but equal to or greater than 1.00 to 1.0, the LIBOR Rate Margin shall be one hundred fifty-five (155) basis points; and if the Borrowers ratio of Senior Bank Debt to Adjusted
EBITDA is less than 1.00 to 1.0, the LIBOR Rate Margin shall be one hundred thirty-five (135) basis points. Such adjustments shall be based upon the Borrowers ratio of Senior Bank Debt to Adjusted EBITDA as determined from the financial
statements delivered to the Bank pursuant to Section 2(b)(i) or (ii) hereof, as applicable. The foregoing provisions are not intended to, and shall not be construed to, authorize any violation by the Borrower of any Financial
Covenant or constitute a waiver thereof or any commitment by the Bank to waive any violation by the Borrower of any Financial Covenant.

Upon conversion of a Construction Period Construction Loan to a Construction Term Loan and/or the conversion of a Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loan to a Stock Repurchase Term Loan (the Construction Term
Loan and the Stock Repurchase Term Loan each hereinafter referred to as a Term Loan and collectively referred to as the Term Loans and the Construction Loan Conversion Date and the Stock Repurchase
Loan Conversion Date shall be each referred to as a Conversion Date), the Borrower shall choose that interest on such Term Loan shall accrue after such Term Loans Conversion Date as provided under either Option A or
Option B that follows (with Option B only being available as a choice to the Borrower so long as no Event of Default or event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, might mature into an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be
continuing): (A) under Option A (which shall be known as a Variable Rate Term Loan), for which Borrower shall execute a Promissory Note in substantially the form of Exhibit G-2 attached hereto, interest
on such Variable Rate Term Loan shall accrue after such Variable Rate Term Loans Conversion Date as a LIBOR Rate Loan at the then applicable LIBOR Rate Margin plus the 1, 2, or 3 month LIBOR rate quoted by the Bank from Telerate Page 3750 or
any successor thereto (which shall be the LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to (i) commencement of the Variable Rate Term Loan or (ii) the end of each Loan Period, adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent
costs arising from a change in government regulation; or (B) under Option B (which shall be known as a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan), for which Borrower shall execute a Promissory Note in substantially the form of
Exhibit G-1 attached hereto, interest on

such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan shall accrue after such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loans Conversion Date at a fixed rate per annum equal to one hundred fifty (150) basis points plus the
Banks Cost of Funds as of the Conversion Date (the Cost of Funds-Based Rate).

With respect to
any Variable Rate Term Loan, in the event the Borrower does not timely select another interest rate option at least two New York Banking Days before the end of the Loan Period for a LIBOR Rate Loan, the funds advanced under the LIBOR Rate Loan
shall, beginning on the first day of the new Loan Period, accrue interest at the 1 month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to commencement of such Loan Period. No Variable Rate Term Loan may extend beyond the Construction Term
Loan Maturity Date or Stock Repurchase Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable, for such Variable Rate Term Loan. In any event, if the Loan Period (as defined below) for a Variable Rate Term Loan should happen to extend beyond the applicable maturity
date for such Variable Rate Term Loan, such Variable Rate Term Loan must be prepaid at its Construction Term Loan Maturity Date or Stock Repurchase Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable. Each Variable Rate Term Loan shall be in a minimum principal
amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and in increments of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) thereafter.

With respect to any Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan, the term Cost of Funds means the rate at which the Bank would
be able to borrow funds of comparable amounts in the Money Markets for a period equal to the remaining term of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan, adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government
regulation, with such rate rounded upward to the nearest one-eighth percent, and the term.

(ii) Revolving Loan.
Interest on each advance of the Revolving Note hereunder shall accrue at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR Rate Margin plus at the 1 month LIBOR rate quoted by the Bank from Telerate Page 3750 or any successor their, which shall be that one-month
LIBOR rate in effect to New York Banking Days prior to the beginning of each calendar month, adjusted for any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation, such rate to be reset at the beginning of each
succeeding month. If the initial advance under this Note occurs other than on the first day of the month, the initial 1 month LIBOR rate shall be that 1 month LIBOR rate in effect two New York Banking Days prior to the date of the initial advance;
such 1-month LIBOR rate to be reset at the beginning of each succeeding month (the Revolving Note LIBOR Rate; provided, however, the Borrower may elect at any time to the convert a portion of the outstanding
advances of the Revolving Note to a LIBOR Rate Loan as set forth in Section 4(b)(i). In the event the Borrower does not timely select an interest rate option at least two New York Banking Days before the end of the Loan Period for
outstanding advances of the Revolving Note that are a LIBOR Rate Loan, such outstanding advances, shall, beginning on the first day of the new Loan Period, accrue interest at the Revolving Note LIBOR Rate.

should happen to extend beyond the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, such loan must be prepaid at the Revolving Commitment Termination Date. Each Revolving Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000)
and in increments of Five Hundred Thousand

the Revolving Note LIBOR Rate without premium

(iii) 2009 Term Loan. The unpaid balance of the 2009 Term Loan shall
bear interest at a rate of 3.47% per annum. The 2009 Term Loan is a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan.

Interest on the Loans
shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days but applied to the actual number of days elapsed. The Banks internal records of applicable interest rates shall be determinative in the absence of
manifest error.

At the option of the Bank, (a) prior to acceleration of the Loans, in the event that any interest on or
principal of any Loan remains unpaid past thirty (30) days of the date due, and/or (b) upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default hereunder or upon the acceleration of the Loans, interest (computed and adjusted in the same manner,
and with the same effect, as interest on the Loans prior to maturity) on the outstanding balance of the Loans shall be payable on demand at the rate that would otherwise be in effect for such Loans from time to time as set forth in this
Section 4(b)plus an additional three percent (3%) per annum up to any maximum rate permitted by law, in all cases until paid and whether before or after the entry of any judgment thereon. In addition, in the event that the

interest accrued thereon shall be repaid by the Borrower to the Bank by consecutive monthly payments in the amount of $89,459.47 each on the twenty first day of each calendar month, commencing on November 21, 2009, and by a final payment on the
2009 Term Loan Maturity Date in the amount of the unpaid principal and interest balance of the 2009 Term Loan. No repayment or prepayment of the 2009 Term Loan by the Borrower shall be reason for any relending or additional lending of the 2009 Term
Loan to the Borrower.

All payments of principal and interest hereunder shall be made in immediately available funds to the
Bank at such place as may be designated by the Bank to the Borrower in writing. The Bank is authorized by the Borrower to enter from time to time the balance of the Loans and all payments and prepayments thereon on the reverse of the Notes or in the
Banks regularly maintained data processing records, and the aggregate unpaid amount of the Loans set forth thereon or therein shall be presumptive evidence of the amount owing to the Bank and unpaid thereon. Upon request and payment by the
Borrower of a reasonable fee which compensates the Bank for the cost of issuing the same, the Bank shall provide the Borrower with a statement showing all payments and prepayments on the Loans.

(d) Changes in Laws and Circumstances; Illegality. In the event of (A) any change in the reserve requirements and/or the
assessment rates of the FDIC which are applicable

to the Bank in making any or all of the Loans or (B) any change in circumstances affecting the interbank market, or (C) any adoption of any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental
rules, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) or any change in the interpretation, promulgation, implementation or administration thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank
or comparable agency charged with interpretation or administration thereof, including, without limitation, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives in connection with Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act regardless of the
date enacted, adopted or issued, and the result of any such event described in clause (A), (B), or (C) above is to increase the costs to the Bank of making the Loans, the Borrower shall promptly pay the Bank any additional amounts, upon demand
accompanied by a reasonably detailed statement as to such additional amounts (which statement shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), which will reasonably compensate the Bank for such costs.

(i) If by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank market adequate and reasonable means do not exist in the reasonable judgment
of the Bank for ascertaining the rate of interest for a LIBOR Rate Loan or Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan at any time, the Bank shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower. Unless and until such notice has been withdrawn by the Bank, the
Borrower may not thereafter elect to have any portion of the Loans bear interest at a LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, as applicable.

(ii) If any law, rule, regulation, treaty, guideline, order or directive or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for the Loans to bear interest at a
LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, the Bank shall notify the Borrower thereof and no portion of the Loans may thereafter bear interest at a LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, as applicable. If required by law, any portion of
the Loans then bearing interest at a LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, as applicable, shall cease to bear interest at the LIBOR based rate or Cost of Funds-Based Rate, as applicable, and shall bear interest based on the Prime Rate. The
Prime Rate is the rate announced from time to time by the Bank as its prime rate. The Prime Rate is determined solely by the Bank pursuant to market factors and its own operating needs and is not necessarily the Banks
best or most favorable rate for corporate, commercial, or other loans.

(e) Prepayments. The Borrower may, at its
option, from time to time repay or prepay part or all of the outstanding principal balance of the Loans bearing interest based on the Prime Rate or the Revolving Note LIBOR Rate without premium. The Borrower may, at its option, from time to time
repay or prepay part or all of the outstanding principal balance of any of the Revolving Loans bearing interest based on the LIBOR Rate, Construction Loans and/or the Stock Repurchase Loans at the end of a Loan Period without premium.

If any LIBOR Rate Loan (including, without limitation, any advances of Revolving Loans that Borrower has elected to be a LIBOR Rate Loan)
is prepaid prior to the end of the Loan Period for such loan, whether voluntarily or because prepayment is required due to such loans maturing or accelerating upon default or otherwise, the Borrower agrees to pay all of the Banks costs,
expenses, and Interest Differential (as determined by the Bank) incurred as a result of such prepayment. Because of the short-term nature of this facility, the Borrower agrees that the Interest Differential shall not be discounted to its present
value. Any prepayment of a



- 21 -



---



Exhibit 10.1



LIBOR Rate Loan shall be in an amount equal to the remaining entire principal balance of such loan.

There shall be no prepayments of any Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan, provided that the Bank may consider requests for its consent with respect to prepayment of any Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan, without
incurring an obligation to do so, and the Borrower acknowledges that in the event that such consent is granted, the Borrower shall be required to pay the Bank, upon prepayment of all or part of the principal amount of a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan
before final maturity, a prepayment indemnity (Prepayment Fee) equal to the greater of zero, or that amount, calculated on any date of prepayment (Prepayment Date), which is derived by subtracting:
(a) the principal amount of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan or portion of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan to be prepaid from (b) the Net Present Value of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan or portion of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan
to be prepaid on such Prepayment Date; provided, however, that the Prepayment Fee shall not in any event exceed the maximum prepayment fee permitted by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to the conversion of a Construction
Period Construction Loan or a Short-Term Stock Repurchase Loan to a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan, the Bank and the Borrower mutually agree that the Cost of Funds-Based Rate will include a premium as payment to the Bank for waiver by the Bank of any
Prepayment Fee (determined by the Bank in its sole discretion) over the then applicable Cost of Funds-Based Rate and such premium is expressly described in the applicable Promissory Note, then the Borrower may prepay such Cost of Funds Rate Term
Loan without incurring a Prepayment Fee. If the Borrower initially elects less than a 12 year maturity for a Construction Term Loan that is also a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan and later the Borrower exercises its option to extend the maturity up to
12 years from the Construction Conversion Date, if the Borrower did not pay a premium to the Bank for waiver by the Bank of any Prepayment Fee at the Construction Conversion Date, then the Borrower will be subject to a Prepayment Fee at the time the
Borrower elects to extend the maturity date of such Construction Term Loan; provided, however, the Bank shall waive any Prepayment Fee that would otherwise apply to any Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan issued on or after September 1,
2007 and prior to October 21, 2010.

Net Present Value shall mean the amount which is derived
by summing the present values of each prospective payment of principal and interest which, without such full or partial prepayment, could otherwise have been received by the Bank over the remaining contractual life of such Cost of Funds Rate Term
Loan. The individual discount rate used to present value each prospective payment of interest and/or principal shall be the Money Market Rate at Prepayment for the maturity matching that of each specific payment of principal and/or interest.

Money Market Rate At Prepayment shall mean that zero-coupon rate, calculated on the Prepayment
Date, and determined solely by the Bank, as the rate at which the Bank would be able to borrow funds in Money Markets for the prepayment amount matching the maturity of a specific prospective Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan payment date, adjusted for
any reserve requirement and any subsequent costs arising from a change in government regulation. A separate Money Market Rate at Prepayment will be calculated for each prospective interest and/or principal payment date.

---



Exhibit 10.1



In calculating the amount of such Prepayment Fee,
the Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower to make such assumptions regarding the source of funding, redeployment of funds, and other related matters, as the Bank may deem appropriate. If the Borrower fails to pay any Prepayment Fee when due, the
amount of such Prepayment Fee shall thereafter bear interest as a LIBOR Rate Loan until paid at the default rate specified in this Agreement (computed on the basis of a 360-day year, actual days elapsed). Any prepayment of principal shall be
accompanied by a payment of interest accrued to date thereon; and said prepayment shall be applied to the principal installments in the inverse order of their maturities. All prepayments shall be in an amount of at least $100,000 or, if less, the
remaining entire principal balance of the applicable Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan.

No partial prepayment of any of the Loans
shall change any due date or the amount of any regularly-scheduled installment of principal thereof.

(f) Unused Credit
Fee. The Borrower shall pay the Bank an unused credit fee in an amount equal to one quarter of one percent (.25%) per annum times the daily average of (a) the unused Total Revolver Commitment Amount plus (b) the unused Construction
Loan Commitment Amount (the Unused Credit Fee), which fee shall be payable quarterly, in arrears, having commenced on the first day of December, 1998, and on the first day of each March, June, September and December
thereafter, and when the Loans are due (whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise). The Unused Credit Fee shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days but applied to the actual number of days
elapsed. The unused portion of the Stock Repurchase Loan Commitment Amount shall not be subject to any unused credit fee.

5.
Events of Default. If any of the following events (each, an Event of Default) shall occur, then the Bank may, without further notice or demand, accelerate the Loans and declare them to be, and thereupon the Loans
shall become, immediately due and payable (except that the Loans shall become automatically due and payable upon the occurrence of an event described in Sections 5(j), (k) and (l) below), and, to the extent that (a) the
Total Revolver Commitment Amount, (b) the Construction Loan Commitment Amount, (c) the Stock Repurchase Loan Commitment Amount and/or (d) any other Loan proceeds have not yet been used or fully drawn on by the Borrower, terminate any
obligation of the Bank to disburse the balance of same; and the Bank shall have all rights provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise provided by law to realize on any collateral or security for the Loans:

(a) The Borrower does not pay the Bank any interest on the Loans within ten (10) days after the date due, whether by reason of
acceleration or otherwise, or does not pay or repay to the Bank any principal of the Loans or any other obligation hereunder when due, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise; or

(b) The Borrower defaults in the performance or observance of any agreement contained in Section 2(b), 2(c), 2(d), 2(e), 2(f),
2(g), 2(h) or 2(o) hereof and such default has not been cured by the Borrower within ten (10) days after the occurrence thereof, or the Borrower defaults in the performance or observance of any other agreement contained in
Section 2 hereof; or

Exhibit 10.1



(c) There shall have occurred any other violation
or breach of any covenant, agreement or condition contained herein or in any other Loan Document which has not been cured by the Borrower within thirty (30) days after the earlier to occur of the date the Borrower has knowledge thereof and the
date the Bank gives the Borrower notice thereof; or

(d) The Borrower does not pay when due or prior to the expiration of the
applicable cure period, if any, any principal or interest on any other Indebtedness in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), or the Borrower defaults in the performance or observance of any other term or condition contained in any
agreement or instrument under which such Indebtedness is created, and the holder of such other Indebtedness declares, or may declare, such Indebtedness due prior to its stated maturity because of the Borrowers default thereunder; or

(e) There shall have occurred any violation or breach of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in any other
agreement between the Borrower and the Bank which has not been cured by the Borrower prior to the expiration of the applicable cure period, if any; including, without limitation, the Continuing Reimbursement Agreement; or

(f) The Borrower does not perform its obligations under any agreement material to its business, and the other party to such agreement
declares, or may declare, such agreement in default; or

(g) Any representation or warranty made herein or in any other Loan
Document or writing furnished in connection with this Agreement shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made; or

(h) The Borrower is generally not paying its debts as they become due; or

(i)
With respect to the plans referred to in Section 1(h) above, or any other similar plan, a reportable event or prohibited transaction pursuant to ERISA has occurred which results in the imposition of
material taxes or penalties against the Borrower or the termination of such plans (or trusts related thereto), or the Borrower incurs any material liability to the PBGC in connection with such plans; or

(j) The Borrower makes an assignment of a material part of its assets for the benefit of creditors; or

(k) The Borrower applies for the appointment of a trustee or receiver for a material part of its assets or commences any proceedings
relating to the Borrower under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, readjustment of debt, dissolution or other liquidation law of any jurisdiction; or any such application is filed, or any such proceedings are commenced, against
the Borrower, and the Borrower indicates its approval, consent or acquiescence thereto; or an order is entered appointing such trustee or receiver, or adjudicating the Borrower bankrupt or insolvent, or approving the petition in any such
proceedings, and such order remains in effect for sixty (60) days; or

(l) Any order is entered in any proceedings
against the Borrower decreeing the dissolution of the Borrower; or

Exhibit 10.1



(m) Any material part of the Borrowers
operations shall cease, other than temporary or seasonal cessations which are experienced by other companies in the same line of business and which would not have a material adverse effect on the Borrowers operations or financial condition or
its ability to perform its obligations hereunder; or

(n) Any final non-appealable judgment which, together with other
outstanding judgments against the Borrower, causes the aggregate of such judgments in excess of confirmed insurance coverage satisfactory to the Bank to exceed Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000), shall be rendered against the Borrower;
or

(o) Any event of default occurs under any other agreement to which the Borrower and the Bank are parties or under any
document or instrument running to the benefit of the Bank from the Borrower.

The above recitation of Events of Default shall
be interpreted in all respects in favor of the Bank. To the extent any cure-of-default period is provided above, the Bank may nevertheless, at its option pending completion of such cure, suspend its obligation to consider further disbursement of the
Loans hereunder.

6. General.

(a) Reasonable Actions. The Bank agrees that in taking any action which it is permitted or empowered to take under this Agreement, it will act reasonably under what it believes are the facts and
circumstances existing at such time.

(b) Delay. No delay, omission or forbearance on the part of the Bank in the
exercise of any power or right shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial delay, omission or forbearance in the exercise of any other power or right. The rights and/or remedies of the Bank herein provided are cumulative,
shall be interpreted in all respects in favor of the Bank and are not exclusive of any other rights and/or remedies provided by law.

(c) Notice. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any notice hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be given when personally delivered or when sent by certified

The Borrower or the Bank
may, by written notice to the other as provided herein, designate another address for purposes hereunder.

(d) Expenses;
Indemnity. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Bank, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of outside-counsel for the Bank (determined on the basis of such counsels generally
applicable rates, which may be higher than the rates such counsel charges the Bank in certain matters) and/ or the allocated costs of in-house counsel incurred from time to time by the Bank in entering into and closing this Agreement and preparing
the documentation in connection herewith, administering the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, and enforcing the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, and the
Borrower agrees to pay the Bank upon demand for the same. The Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the Bank harmless from any liability, obligation, cost, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys fees and legal expenses) for
taxes (other than income taxes), fees or third party claims which may arise or be related to the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in the case of negligence or willful misconduct on the
part of the Bank. The Borrower further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Bank from any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of default by the Borrower in payment of any principal of or interest on the Loans,
including, without limitation, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by the Bank to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain interest rates on the Cost of Funds Loans.

(e) Survival. All covenants and agreements of the Borrower made herein or otherwise in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall remain in effect so long as any obligations of the Borrower are outstanding hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

Exhibit 10.1



(f) Severability. Any provision of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition of enforceability without invalidating the remaining portions
hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(g) Law. IMPORTANT:
The Loans shall be deemed made in Ohio and this Agreement and all other Loan Documents, and all of the rights and obligations of the Borrower and the Bank hereunder and thereunder, shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Ohio, including all matters of construction, validity and performance. Without limitation on the ability of the Bank to initiate and prosecute any action or proceeding in any applicable jurisdiction related to loan
repayment, the Borrower and the Bank agree that any action or proceeding commenced by or on behalf of the parties arising out of or relating to the Loans and/or this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents shall be commenced and maintained
exclusively in the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of Ohio, or any other court of applicable jurisdiction located in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Borrower and the Bank also agree that a summons and complaint commencing an
action or proceeding in any such Ohio courts by or on behalf of such parties shall be properly served and shall confer personal jurisdiction on a party to which said party consents, if (i) served personally or by certified mail to the other
party at any of its addresses noted herein, or (ii) as otherwise provided under the laws of the State of Ohio. The interest rates and all other terms of the Loans negotiated with the Borrower are, in part, related to the aforesaid provisions on
jurisdiction, which the Bank deems a vital part of this loan arrangement.

(h) Successors. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Bank and their respective successors and assigns. The Borrower shall not assign its rights or delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the Bank.

(i) Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends and restates the Prior Loan Agreements and amounts outstanding under the
Prior Loan Agreements shall not be deemed cancelled or satisfied, but shall be evidenced by this Agreement instead of by the Prior Loan Agreements.

(j) Amendment. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Agreement may not be modified or amended except in writing signed by authorized officers of the Bank and the Borrower.

FINANCIAL COVENANTS

The Borrower agrees that it shall:

(a) Ratio of Senior Bank Debt to Adjusted
EBITDA. Not permit the ratio of the Borrowers Senior Bank Debt to Adjusted EBITDA to exceed 2.00 to 1.0 at any time.

Senior Bank Debt for purposes hereof shall mean the sum of all of the Borrowers indebtedness for borrowed money that in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles would be considered as a liability, and all obligations of the Borrower incurred in connection with any existing or future lease transactions capitalized or required to be capitalized on the
Borrowers books.

Adjusted EBITDA for purposes hereof shall mean the Borrowers consolidated gross (before

disposition of property; less cash and non-cash unusual gains; plus cash and non-cash unusual losses, all calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals and consistently applied in accordance with past practices
on a rolling four (4) quarter basis.

to (ii) the sum of the Borrowers scheduled principal payments on long term debt and capital lease obligations (excluding Revolving Loan principal payments) plus interest expense plus operating lease payments (in each case
for the same period that the Borrowers Adjusted EBITDA is measured), calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied in accordance with past practices on a rolling four (4) quarter basis, to be
less than 1.10 to 1.0, measured quarterly on a rolling twelve month basis.

FRISCHS RESTAURANTS, INC., an
Ohio corporation (the Borrower), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association formerly known as Firstar Bank, N.A. and Star Bank, National
Association (the Bank), or it successors or assigns, on or before                          1,
            (the Maturity Date), the principal sum of             Dollars
($            ), together with interest thereon as hereinafter provided.

This Note is a Term Note as described in and evidences a Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan made under that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated
as of October 21, 2010 between the Borrower and the Bank, as the same has been and/or may be amended, restated, supplemented, renewed, or otherwise modified and in effect from time to time (the Loan Agreement), and is
subject to the terms and conditions thereof, including, without limitation, the terms thereof providing for acceleration of maturity of such Cost of Funds Rate Term Loan. If any term or condition of this Note conflicts with the express terms or

The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to              percent
(            %). Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days but applied to the actual number of days elapsed.

The Borrower shall make monthly payments of principal and interest on this Note in the amount of
             Dollars ($            ), with each such payment being applied first to accrued interest and then to principal,
commencing on the first day of                         ,
            and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, at which time the outstanding principal balance of and all interest on this Note shall be
due and payable in full.

At the option of the Bank, (a) prior to acceleration of this Note, in the event that any
interest on or principal of this Note remains unpaid past thirty (30) days of the date due, and/or (b) upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or upon the acceleration of this Note, interest (computed and
adjusted in the same manner, and with the same effect, as interest on this Note prior to maturity) on the outstanding balance of this Note shall be payable on demand at the rate that would otherwise be in effect for such Loans from time to time as
set forth in the Loan Agreement plus an additional three percent (3%) per annum up to any maximum rate permitted by law, in all cases until paid and whether before or after the

entry of any judgment thereon. In addition, in the event that the Borrower should fail to make any payment hereunder within ten (10) days of the date due, the Borrower shall pay the Bank a
fee in an amount of up to five percent (5%) of the amount of such payment, but in no event less than Fifty Dollars ($50.00), which fee shall be immediately due and payable without notice or demand.

All payments of principal and interest hereunder shall be made in immediately available funds to the Bank at 425 Walnut Street, Location
9150, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202, or at such other place as may be designated by the Bank to the Borrower in writing. The Bank is authorized by the Borrower to enter from time to time the balance of this Note and all payments and prepayments thereon on
the reverse of this Note or in the Banks regularly maintained data processing records, and the aggregate unpaid amount set forth thereon or therein shall be presumptive evidence of the amount owing to the Bank and unpaid on this Note.

[This Note may not be prepaid in whole or in part except upon (i) written notice to the Bank not less than thirty
(30) days prior to the date of prepayment (which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment), (ii) the Bank granting its consent to such prepayment, which consent the Bank may grant or withhold in its sole discretion,
(iii) payment to the Bank of a Prepayment Fee and other amounts as specified in and calculated in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, and (iv) compliance with the other terms and conditions of the Loan
Agreement.

The per annum rate of this Note includes a premium of
            % over the otherwise applicable Cost of Funds-Based Rate so that the Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time without incurring a Prepayment Fee
as specified in and calculated in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement.]

IMPORTANT: This Note shall be
deemed made in Ohio and shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, including all matters of construction, validity and performance. Without limitation on the ability of the Bank to initiate
