               CHEFS INTERNATIONAL EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE BONUS PLAN

         The Executive  Incentive Bonus Plan ("EIBP") is a cash-based  incentive
program. The purpose of the EIBP is to motivate and reward eligible employees of
Chefs  International,  Inc. (the  "Company")  for good  performance  by making a
portion of their cash compensation dependent upon the achievement by the Company
and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis of annual levels of earnings before
deducting interest, income taxes,  depreciation and amortization;  and excluding
extraordinary  items  ("EBITDA").  "Extraordinary  Items," which are excluded in
computing  EBITDA,  shall mean all items considered  extraordinary for Generally
Accepted  Accounting  Principle  ("GAAP")  purposes  as well as gains or  losses
attributable to transactions  involving  Mister Cookie Face and gains and losses
realized from sales and disposals not in the ordinary course of business.

         At the  conclusion of each Company fiscal year  commencing  with fiscal
2001,  the Company's  auditors  shall compute the bonus pool ("Bonus Pool") from
which the cash incentives shall be distributed.  The Bonus Pool for a year shall
be equal to 10% of the amount by which EBITDA (computed without deduction of the
Bonus Pool for such year) exceeds $1,000,000. The entire Bonus Pool for a fiscal
year shall be distributed.

         The  Bonus  Pool  shall be  allocated  among and  distributed  to those
persons performing executive type functions for the Company and its subsidiaries
and in such amounts as a Committee  consisting  of the Chairman of the Company's
Board  of  Directors  and  the  Company's   President  (the  "Committee")  shall
determine.  The type of employees to whom it is anticipated  that the Bonus Pool
will be allocated and distributed  include the President,  the  Controller,  the
area  supervisors and persons  performing  similar  functions (if any).  Nothing
herein  shall  entitle  any of  the  foregoing  employees  to an  allocation  or
distribution  of any portion of the Bonus Pool. No employee shall be entitled to
a  distribution  from the Bonus Pool with  respect to a fiscal year unless he is
employed by the Company or a  subsidiary  on the date of the  distribution.  Any
such allocations and distributions  shall be made in the absolute  discretion of
the  Committee.  If the  Committee is unable to  unanimously  agree on whether a
particular employee shall be included in the allocation and distribution, or the
amount of same,  the matter shall be referred to and voted upon by the Company's
Board of Directors.

         Distributions  of the Bonus Pool with respect to a fiscal year shall be
made no later  than  five  business  days  after  publication  of the  Company's
year-end audited financial statements for that year.

         This EIBP may be  terminated  with respect to any fiscal year after the
Company's fiscal year 2005 by the Board of Directors.
