3. Representations and Warranties.

The undersigned agrees to reimburse Red Robin on demand for all amounts paid or
advanced by Red Robin for the purpose of preserving the Collateral or any part
thereof and/or any liabilities or expenses incurred by Red Robin as the
transferee or holder of the Collateral. Red Robin shall exercise reasonable care
and custody in preserving the Collateral to the extent required by applicable
statute and use commercially reasonable efforts to take any action in respect to
the Collateral that Snyder reasonably requests in writing. Red Robin's failure
to do any such act, however, shall not be deemed a failure to exercise
reasonable care.

4. General Covenants.

Red Robin shall be under no duty to: (i) collect the Collateral or any proceeds
thereof or give any notice with respect thereto; (ii) preserve the rights of
Snyder with respect to the Collateral against third parties; (iii) sell or
otherwise realize upon the Collateral; or (iv) seek payment of the Obligations

conversion, call, rejection, retirement or any other event relating to the
Collateral.

The Collateral also stands as collateral security for that certain Promissory
Note which Snyder gave to Red Robin on June 30, 2000, which is evidenced by a
Pledge Agreement, also dated June 30, 2000. After payment of part of the
Obligations under the Promissory Note and the Promissory Note of June 30, 2000,
Red Robin may retain as security for any remaining Obligations a portion of the
Collateral equal to the amounts remaining under both Promissory Notes using a
value of $2.25 per share for said Red Robin common stock, and Red Robin may
retain this Agreement as evidence of such security.

5. Rights and Remedies.

Red Robin shall have, among other rights and remedies, those provided in
paragraph 5(a) at all times before and after an event of default occurs, and
shall have all the rights and remedies enumerated in this Section 5 after an
event of default occurs.

     (a) Red Robin may, at its option, upon thirty days' notice to Snyder: (i)
transfer into its name or the name of its nominee any part of the Collateral;
(ii) demand, sue for, collect and receive all interest, dividends, including
liquidating dividends, and other proceeds thereof, and hold same as security for
payment of Obligations or, if cash proceeds, apply the portion of the cash
proceeds after deducting the amount of any taxes Snyder owes thereon, as payment
of the Obligations; or (iii) demand, sue for, collect or make any settlement or
compromise Red Robin deems desirable with respect to any Collateral.

     (b) If any event of default occurs, and so long as it continues, Red Robin
may declare all Obligations to be due and payable regardless of their terms,
without notice, protest, presentment, or demand, all of which Snyder hereby
expressly waives. While an event of default exists, Red Robin shall have, in
addition to all rights and remedies contained herein and in other existing or
future agreements, guaranties, notes, instruments, and documents executed by
Snyder and

                                       2

Collateral shall have the right to enforce this Agreement by legal action or
otherwise, for its own benefit as fully as if such purchaser, assignee,
transferee or holder were herein by name specifically given such rights. Red

11. Duration and Termination
    ------------------------

     a)   Duration - This Agreement shall become effective on the date first set
          --------
          forth above and shall continue in force for a period of one year from
          that date, unless sooner terminated or modified as provided herein.

     b)   Termination, Work in Progress - Either party may terminate this
          -----------------------------
          Agreement by giving the other party ninety (90) days written notice
          prior to the effective date of termination. During the 90 day
          termination period, the standard monthly fee will continue, except as
          defined in section 11 (a). Upon receipt of written notice of
          termination, the Agency shall not commence work on any new
          advertisements without written instructions to do so from the Client,
          but, unless notified in writing to the contrary, it shall complete and
          place all advertisements previously approved by the Client. All other
          rights and duties of the parties shall continue during such notice
          period and the Client shall be responsible for the payment of any
          contract obligation owing to third parties during this period. If
          either the Client or Agency desires to terminate all work in progress
          on advertisements commenced before receipt of notice of termination,
          it may do so only upon the parties' mutual written consent and the
          determination and payment of the compensation to be received by the
          Agency for partially completed work.

     c)   Assignment Upon Termination - Upon termination of this Agreement and
          ---------------------------
          final payment of all outstanding invoices from the Agency, the Agency
          shall assign to the Client all of its rights in contracts, agreements,
          arrangements, or other transactions made with third parties for the
          Client's account, effective on the date of termination or on such
          other date as may be agreed upon by the parties; and the Client shall
          assume all obligations and hold the Agency harmless from all liability
          thereunder. In the event any contract is non-assignable and consent to
          assignment is refused, or the Agency cannot obtain a release from its
          obligations, the Agency shall continue performance, and the Client
          shall meet its obligations, as to the unassigned

                                       6

<PAGE>

          or unreleased contracts only, to the Agency, as though this agreement
          had not been terminated.

     d)   Termination Billings - Upon termination of the Agreement, the Agency
          --------------------
          shall bill the Client for all amounts not previously billed but
          authorized by the Client and due the Agency at that time. The Agency
          shall not be entitled to payment for any work commenced after the date
          notice of termination was given or received by the Agency without the
          written consent of the Client. The Agency shall, however, be entitled
          to payment for services commenced and approved for placement in a
          specific media by the Client prior to receipt of the notice, or, with
