“Premises.” The parties desire by this instrument to establish the terms and conditions upon which Subtenant will sublet the Premises from Sublandlord; and 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and premises herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to
be legally bound hereby, the parties hereby agree as follows:

the Fourth Amendment; (f) Sections 3 and 4 of the Fifth Amendment; and (g) Section 3 of the Sixth Amendment, or as otherwise herein provided, as between Sublandlord and Subtenant, all of the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions

in the incorporated Prime Lease provisions, and as the same relate to the Premises, during the term of this subletting, are hereby granted to or imposed on Subtenant in the same manner as if Subtenant had been Tenant in same. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Sublease shall not release Sublandlord from any existing or future duty, obligation or liability to Landlord under the Prime Lease, nor shall this Sublease change, modify, or amend 








 
the Prime Lease in any manner, and in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Prime Lease and this Sublease, the express terms of the Prime Lease
shall prevail. Sublandlord agrees that Subtenant shall be entitled to receive all services Sublandlord is entitled to receive from Landlord pursuant to the Prime Lease, and Subtenant agrees that Sublandlord shall not be responsible for providing, or
ensuring the provision of same. Subtenant expressly acknowledges that Sublandlord is not responsible for complying with any terms of the Prime Lease which, by their nature, are the sole obligations of the Landlord thereunder. 
 Sublandlord hereby subleases the Premises to Subtenant, on the same terms and conditions upon which said Premises were leased to Sublandlord under the
Prime Lease, the same as if all the terms and conditions of the Prime Lease were fully set forth herein, except as set forth in Section 1 of this Sublease or as otherwise expressly set forth herein. During the term of this Sublease, and except
as set forth to the contrary herein, Subtenant hereby assumes and agrees to make all payments as hereinafter set forth and perform and fulfill all obligations, covenants and agreements of Sublandlord under the Prime Lease, with respect to the
Premises, from and after the date hereof in the same manner as if Subtenant had executed the Prime Lease as tenant on the date hereof.

date which is the first business day after all parties hereto have executed this Sublease (and Guarantor has executed the Guaranty, as such terms are hereinafter defined) and Landlord has consented to this Sublease in writing, or (ii) the
16th day of April, 2007 (the “Commencement Date”), and, unless extended pursuant to the express terms of
this Section 2, shall expire on the 31st day of January, 2012 at 5:00 p.m. (the “Expiration Date”),
unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of this Sublease. Subtenant expressly acknowledges that no right or option to extend or renew the Term, or rights to other space owned or leased by Landlord or Sublandlord (including specifically
any right of first refusal), is granted to Subtenant hereunder, nor shall Subtenant be entitled to exercise any such or similar rights afforded under the Prime Lease, except to the extent expressly provided in Section 2 of this Sublease.

 Provided that (i) Subtenant is not then in default under the Sublease; and
(ii) Sublandlord has the right to similarly extend the term of the Prime Lease, then the Term shall automatically be extended for successive periods of five (5) years each, unless Sublandlord receives written notice from Subtenant of its

respects subordinate to the Prime Lease. 
 7. Subtenant hereby agrees to execute such other necessary documents and instruments as
Sublandlord may hereafter reasonably request in order to effectuate the provisions of the Sublease. In the event that Subtenant is more than one person or entity, the obligations of the persons and entities executing this Sublease as Subtenant shall
be joint and several. 
 8. Landlord’s consent to this Sublease shall not be construed as relieving Sublandlord from the requirement of
obtaining Landlord’s consent to any further subleasing or assignment of the Prime Lease, or of creating any rights in Subtenant against Landlord as a result of Landlord’s consent to this Sublease. 
 9. Subtenant acknowledges and agrees that the Premises are being conveyed on an “as is” basis, and that Sublandlord hereby makes no
representation or warranty whatsoever, including specifically the condition thereof or their fitness for a particular purpose. Subtenant shall not alter the Premises without first obtaining Sublandlord’s written approval for such alteration.
Subtenant acknowledges that alterations are further subject to the consent of Landlord and Subtenant shall be responsible for obtaining such consent; provided, however, Sublandlord shall cooperate and work with Subtenant to obtain the consent of the
Landlord. Except as otherwise agreed upon at the time any such consent is given or specified in the Prime Lease, all alterations shall remain upon the Premises and shall be incorporated in and made a part of the Premises as completed. Subtenant
shall be solely responsible for the removal of any of its improvements at the end of the Term, if so requested by Landlord.

 10. Subtenant shall be liable for, and shall indemnify, defend and hold Sublandlord and Landlord harmless
from and against, any and all claims, damages, judgments, suits, causes of actions, losses, liabilities, and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and court costs to the extent arising or resulting from (a) the
negligence or willful misconduct of Subtenant or any of Subtenant’s agents, employees, subtenants, assignees, licensees, or invitees as to injuries to persons or damage to property occurring in or about the Premises and (b) the default by
Subtenant of any obligation on Subtenant’s part to be performed under the terms of this Sublease; provided, however, Subtenant’s indemnity shall not apply or extend to any such damage or injury to the extent the same are the result of the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of Sublandlord (or Landlord, in the case of Landlord’s indemnity), or Sublandlord’s (or Landlord’s, in the case of Landlord’s indemnity) employees, agents or contractors. In case any action
or proceeding is brought against Sublandlord or Landlord by reason of Subtenant’s indemnification obligation set forth in this section, Sublandlord shall have the right to defend same with counsel of Sublandlord’s choice, at
Subtenant’s sole cost and expense. The terms and provisions of this section shall survive the termination or expiration of this Sublease. 
 11. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Sublease to the contrary, should either party institute any legal proceeding against the other for breach of any provision herein contained and prevail in such action, such other party
shall reimburse the prevailing party for the cost of expenses of such prevailing party, including, without limitation, its reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred at standard and reasonable billing rates. 
 12. This Sublease and all provisions contained herein are contingent upon the written approval of Landlord, a specimen form of consent being attached
hereto, made a part hereof and incorporated herein. 
 13. None of the covenants, terms or conditions of this Sublease to be kept and
performed by either party, shall in any manner be altered, waived, modified, changed or abandoned except by a written instrument, duly signed and delivered by the other party. 
 14. If any term or provision of this Sublease shall to any extent be held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions of this Sublease
shall not be affected thereby, but each term and provision of this Sublease shall be valid and shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 15. All of the covenants, agreements, conditions and undertakings contained in this Sublease shall extend and inure to and be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns of the
respective parties hereto.

agent in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Sublandlord and Subtenant covenant to pay, hold harmless and indemnify the other from and 

  

 6 








 
against any and all costs, expenses or liability for any compensation, commissions and charges claimed by any other broker or agent, with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby or the negotiation thereof and arising by virtue of the acts of the indemnifying party. 
 17. No waiver by
any party hereto of any breach by the other party hereto of any term, covenant, condition, or agreement herein and no failure by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy in respect of any breach hereunder, shall constitute a waiver or
relinquishment for the future of any such term, covenant, condition, or agreement or of any subsequent breach or of any such term, covenant, condition or agreement. 
 18. This Sublease constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and this Sublease supersedes all prior oral or written agreements, commitments, or understandings
with respect to the matters provided for herein. 
 19. This Sublease may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which may be deemed
to be an original. 
 20. Sublandlord acknowledges and agrees that Subtenant shall be entitled to such signage rights as are permitted by the
Landlord, pursuant to and subject to the conditions of the terms of the Lease. 
 21. Whenever Sublandlord is required in the Prime Lease to
furnish insurance to Landlord, Subtenant agrees to furnish such insurance in the same amounts naming Sublandlord and Landlord as additional insureds with waivers of subrogation in favor of Landlord and Sublandlord, as provided in the Prime Lease.
Each such insurance policy shall contain a provision that such policies shall not be cancelled upon less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Sublandlord. Subtenant will deliver certificates of insurance to Sublandlord (on forms
reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord). 
 22. Upon execution of this Sublease, Subtenant shall deposit with Sublandlord a security deposit in
an amount equal to three (3) months’ Base Rent (the “Security Deposit”), in cash. 
 If Subtenant is in default,
Sublandlord can use the Security Deposit, or any portion of it, to cure such default, and Subtenant shall, within five (5) business days after written notice thereof, pay such amounts expended to Sublandlord so as to maintain the Security
Deposit in its initial amount. In the event that Sublandlord terminates this Sublease as a result of Subtenant’s default, Sublandlord shall be entitled to retain the entire balance of the Security Deposit, without prejudice to any other rights
that Sublandlord may have under this Sublease or applicable law.

“Event of Default”) shall constitute a default and breach of this Sublease: (a) failure by Subtenant to make any payment of Rent or fees as and when it shall become due under this Sublease; (b) failure by Subtenant (or
Subtenant’s officers, directors, members, subtenants, employees, invitees, licensees, contractors, and agents) to perform any other promise, duty or obligation herein agreed to by Subtenant, or imposed upon Subtenant (or Subtenant’s

 CONSENT TO SUBLEASE (LANDLORD) 
 Landlord is executing this document for the sole purpose of consenting to the Sublease described therein, and the terms thereof, but consent by Landlord

 EXHIBIT A 
 GUARANTY AGREEMENT 
 As a material inducement to Sublandlord to enter into the Sublease, dated April 16,
2007 (as may be amended from time to time, the “Sublease”), between Regale, Inc., as Sublandlord, and Raleigh Restaurant Concepts, Inc., as Subtenant, VCG Holding Corp., the Guarantor (as defined in Section 24 of the Sublease), hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the complete and timely performance of each obligation of Subtenant (and any subtenant and/or assignee) under the Sublease and any extensions, or renewals of and amendments to the Sublease. This Guaranty is
an absolute, primary, and continuing, guaranty of payment and performance and is independent of Subtenant’s obligations under the Sublease. Guarantor (and if this Guaranty is signed by more than one person or entity, each Guarantor hereunder)
shall be primarily liable, jointly and severally, with Subtenant and any other guarantor of Subtenant’s obligations. Guarantor waives any right to require Sublandlord to (a) join Subtenant with Guarantor in any suit arising under this
Guaranty, (b) proceed against or exhaust any security given to secure Subtenant’s obligations under the Sublease, or (c) pursue or exhaust any other remedy in Sublandlord’s power. Until all of Subtenant’s obligations to
Sublandlord have been discharged in full, Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation against Subtenant. Sublandlord may, without notice or demand and without affecting Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time, compromise, extend or
otherwise modify any or all of the terms of the Sublease, or fail to perfect, or fail to continue the perfection of, any security interests granted under the Sublease. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Subtenant elects to increase
the size of the subleased premises, extend the sublease term, or otherwise expand Subtenant’s obligations under the Sublease, Subtenant’s execution of such lease documentation shall constitute Guarantor’s consent thereto (and such
increased obligations of Subtenant under the Sublease shall constitute a guaranteed obligation hereunder); Guarantor hereby waives any and all rights to consent thereto. Guarantor waives any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held
by Sublandlord. Guarantor hereby waives all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, dishonor and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and waives all notices of existence, creation or
incurring of new or additional obligations from Subtenant to Sublandlord. Guarantor further waives all defenses afforded guarantors or based on suretyship or impairment of collateral under applicable law, other than payment and performance in full
of Subtenant’s obligations under the Sublease. The liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty will not be affected by (i) the release or discharge of Subtenant from, or impairment, limitation or modification of, Subtenant’s
obligations under the Sublease in any bankruptcy, receivership, or other debtor relief proceeding, whether state or federal and whether voluntary or involuntary; (ii) the rejection or disaffirmance of the Sublease in any such proceeding; or
(iii) the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Subtenant under the Sublease. Guarantor shall pay to Sublandlord all costs incurred by Sublandlord in enforcing this Guaranty (including, without 








 
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses). The obligations of Subtenant under the Sublease to execute and deliver estoppel statements, as
therein provided, shall be deemed to also require the Guarantor hereunder to do so and provide the same relative to Guarantor following written request by Sublandlord in accordance with the terms of the Sublease. All notices and other communications
given pursuant to, or in connection with, this Guaranty shall be delivered in the same manner required in the Sublease. All notices or other communications addressed to Guarantor shall be delivered at the address set forth below. This Guaranty shall
be binding upon the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of Sublandlord’s successors and assigns. This Guaranty shall be deemed to be made under and shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of North Carolina and the Guarantor agrees any litigation necessary to enforce the rights of any party hereto, including but not limited to the Landlord, Margaret S. Peeler, shall be brought in the State of North Carolina,
County of Wake.
