            Re:  Success Bonus

Dear Steve:

      In recognition of your increased duties in connection with our anticipated
Change of Control transaction and the value of your efforts in connection with
that transaction to the shareholders of TravelCenters of America, Inc. (the
"Parent"), the Board of Directors of TA Operating Corporation (the "Company")
has selected you as one of a small group of individuals eligible to receive a
"Success Bonus." The conditions for receiving the Success Bonus and the amount
of your Success Bonus are described below in this letter.

      In order to be entitled to receive your Success Bonus, the following must
occur:

      1.    There must be a "Change of Control" as defined below.

      2.    The Change of Control must occur on or before December 31, 2000
            (unless the Board extends the period).

      3.    You must continue to be employed by the Company or a related company
            on the date of the closing of the Change of Control transaction.

      4.    The "280G Shareholder Approval" as defined below must be obtained.

      5.    You must sign and return a copy of this letter.

      If there is a Change of Control on or before December 31, 2000 and the
other above conditions are satisfied, you will be paid a Success Bonus as
follows:

      a.    The amount of the Success Bonus will be equal to 125% of your annual
            base salary at the annual rate in effect on the date of the Change
            of Control.

      b.    The Success Bonus will be paid to you in cash on the date of the
            closing of the Change of Control transaction.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, you shall have no right to a Success
Bonus for any subsequent Change of Control transaction.

      For purposes of this letter, any of the following events shall constitute
a "Change of Control":

      (i)   any "person," as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of
            the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
            Act"), becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3
            promulgated under the Exchange Act) of fifty-one percent (51%) or
            more of the voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities
            of the Parent; provided, however, that the foregoing does not apply
            to any such acquisition that is made by (A) the Company or any
            affiliate of the Company or (B) any employee benefit plan maintained
            either by the Company or any affiliate of the Company; or

      (ii)  the Parent merges into itself, or is merged or consolidated with,
            another corporation and as a result of such merger or consolidation
            less than fifty-one (51%) of the voting power of the
            then-outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting
            corporation immediately after such transaction are owned in the
            aggregate by the former shareholders of the Parent immediately prior
            to such transaction; or

      (iii) all or substantially all the assets accounted for on the
            consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its affiliates, in the
            aggregate, are sold or transferred to one or more corporations or
            persons, and as a result of such sale or transfer less than
            fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting power of the then-outstanding
            voting securities of such corporation or person immediately after
            such sale or transfer is held in the aggregate by the former
            shareholders of the Parent immediately prior to such transaction or
            series of transactions; or

      (iv)  fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the assets accounted for in the
            consolidated balance sheet of Company and its affiliates, in the
            aggregate, are sold or transferred to one or more corporations or
            persons, whether such sale or transfer is accomplished by the sale
            or transfer of assets directly, the sale or transfer of stock of the
            Company or one or more of its affiliates or otherwise with, in any

<PAGE>   3

            case, an aggregate value of fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the
            aggregate value of the Company and its affiliates, or any
            combination of methods by which fifty-one percent (51%) or more of
            the aggregate value of the Company and its affiliates are sold or
            transferred, if, immediately after such sale or transfer, the
            purchaser or transferee is less than fifty-one percent (51%) owned,
            in the aggregate, by the persons who are the shareholders of the
            Parent immediately prior to such sale or transfer; or

      (v)   during any period of two (2) consecutive years, including, without
            limitation, the year 1999, individuals who at the beginning of any
            such period constitute the Board of Directors of the Parent cease,
            for any reason, to constitute at least a majority thereof, unless
            the election or nomination for election of each Director first
            elected during such period was approved by a vote of at least a
            majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Parent who
            were members of the Board of Directors of the Parent on the date of
            the beginning of any such period.

Without otherwise limiting the generality of the foregoing, an initial public
offering of the Common Stock of the Parent shall not be deemed a "Change of
Control" for purposes of this Agreement.

      Your right to receive any payment as a Success Bonus which may be
characterized as a "parachute payment" (within the meaning of section 280G of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")), or deemed to
constitute a payment made in connection with or contingent upon a change of
control of the Company or the Parent for purposes of Code section 280G, is
contingent upon and subject to the approval (the "280G Shareholder Approval") of
holders of record of stock of the Company or the Parent, as applicable,
representing more than seventy-five percent (75%) of the voting power of all
outstanding stock of the Company or the Parent, as the case may be, immediately
prior to such change of control (determined without regard to any stock actually
or constructively owned by certain persons as determined by the Company). The
Company and the Parent intend to present the Success Bonus program described in
this letter in a timely manner to the shareholders of the Company or the Parent
or both, as appropriate, with a unanimous recommendation of the Boards of
Directors of the Company and the Parent that it be approved by such
shareholders.

Section 17 of the Credit Agreement or any other provisions thereof, the Borrower
hereby and thereby indemnifies each of the Indemnified Parties from and against
any and all claims, actions and suits whether groundless or otherwise, and from
and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and expenses of every
nature and character arising out of the Credit Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby including, without

waives and forever discharges (A) any and all liabilities, obligations, duties,
promises or indebtedness of any kind of the Agent, any Co-Agent or any Bank to
