to use any part of the Purchased Assets in any manner. Except for that certain
Restaurant Operating Agreement dated January 1, 2001 (the "Restaurant Operating
Agreement") by and between Seller and Sarasota (which prohibits development of
another Bonefish Grill restaurant within a five (5) mile radius of the
restaurant operated by Sarasota), there is no oral or written agreement,
contract, commitment, understanding or obligation which in any manner restricts
Seller's rights to develop, own and operate Bonefish Grill restaurants in any
manner.

                  4.6(b)   Title to Purchased Assets. Seller has, and will have
on the Closing Date, good and valid title to all the Purchased Assets, free and
clear of all mortgages, liens (statutory or otherwise), security interests,
claims, pledges, licenses, equities, options, conditional sales contracts,
assessments, levies, covenants, charges or encumbrances of any nature
whatsoever, perfected or unperfected (collectively "Liens"). None of the
Purchased Assets are subject to any restrictions with respect to the
transferability thereof. Seller has complete and unrestricted power and right to
sell, assign, convey and deliver the Purchased Assets to Buyer as contemplated
hereby. On the Closing Date, Buyer will receive good and valid title to all the
Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Liens of any nature whatsoever.

                  4.6(c)   Burdensome or Restrictive Agreements. No BG Person
         is a party to or bound by any agreement requiring it to assign any
         interest in any trade secret or proprietary information, or
         prohibiting or restricting it from competing in any business or
         geographical area or soliciting customers or otherwise restricting it
         from carrying on its business anywhere in the world.

                  4.6(d)   No Default. To the knowledge of the BG Principals,
         Seller is not in default under any agreement, contract or commitment,
         nor has any event or omission occurred which through the passage of
         time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default
         thereunder or cause the acceleration of any of its obligations or
         result in the creation of any Lien on any of the Purchased Assets

         4.7      Intellectual Property. In order to operate Bonefish Grill
Restaurants as such are currently being operated by the Subsidiaries, Seller
and the Subsidiaries do not require the rights to any intellectual property
other than the Purchased Assets, except for commonly available intellectual
property licensed by the Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.
Except as set forth in DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE ITEM 4.7, to the knowledge of the BG
Principals, Seller and the Subsidiaries are not infringing and have not
infringed any intellectual property of another in the operation of the Bonefish
Grill restaurants nor is any other person infringing the intellectual property
of Seller and the Subsidiaries. Except as disclosed on DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE 4.7,
the BG Persons have not granted any license or made any assignment of its
rights in any intellectual property. The BG Persons do not pay any royalties or
other consideration for the right to use any intellectual property of others,
except for commonly available intellectual property licensed by the
Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business. There is no Litigation pending
or threatened to challenge Seller's right, title and interest with respect to
its continued use of any intellectual property or any of the Purchased Assets.
All Purchased Assets of Seller which constitute intellectual property are
valid, enforceable and in good standing, and there are no equitable defenses to
enforcement based on any act or omission of Seller.


                                       5

         4.8      Assets Necessary to Business. The Purchased Assets include
all intellectual property comprising the Bonefish Grill restaurant operating
system, except for commonly available intellectual property licensed by the
Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business.

         4.9      No Brokers or Finders. No BG Person nor any of their
respective managers, officers, employees, members or agents have retained,
employed or used any broker or finder in connection with the transaction
provided for herein or in connection with the negotiation thereof.

         4.10     Disclosure. No representation or warranty by the BG Persons
in this Agreement, nor any statement, certificate, schedule, document or
exhibit hereto furnished or to be furnished by or on behalf of the BG Persons
pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby, contains or shall contain (when considered in light of the entirety of
all information provided by the BG Persons to Buyer) any misstatement of any
material fact or omits any material fact necessary to make the statements
contained therein not misleading. The BG Persons shall not be deemed to have
made to Buyer any representation or warranty other than those expressly set

accordance with their terms except that:

                  5.2(a)   enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
         insolvency or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights; and

                  5.2(b)   the availability of equitable remedies may be
         limited by equitable principles of general applicability.

         5.3      Ownership. The BG Principals are the sole record and
beneficial shareholders of BGH and no other person has any rights (in any form)

         6.3      No Brokers or Finders. Neither Buyer nor any of its

7.       COVENANTS OF BG PERSONS

         7.1      Noncompetition. During all times in which any Royalty is
payable under SECTION 3 of this Agreement, and for a two (2) year period
commencing on termination of the Royalty, Seller, BGH, each BGH Principal and
their respective Affiliates shall not, individually or jointly with others,
directly or indirectly, whether for his, her or its own account or for that of
any other person or entity, engage in or own or hold any ownership interest in,
have any interest in or lend any assistance to, any seafood restaurant or any
person or entity engaged in a business owning, operating, franchising or
controlling a seafood restaurant business, regardless of the geographic
location of such person, entity or business, and neither Seller, BGH, and BGH
Principal or their respective Affiliates shall act as an officer, director,
employee, partner,


                                       7
<PAGE>


independent contractor, consultant, principal, agent, proprietor, or in any
other capacity for, nor lend any assistance (financial or otherwise) or
cooperation to, any such person, or entity; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that it shall
not be a violation of this SECTION 7.1 for Seller, BGH, each BGH Principal or
their respective Affiliates to own a one percent (1%) or smaller interest in
any corporation required to file periodic reports with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or successor
statute. For purposes of this SECTION 7, the term "seafood restaurant" shall
mean any restaurant for which: (i) the word "seafood" or any item of seafood or
any word connotating seafood, or any type of body of water, is used in its
name; or (ii) the sale of seafood is regularly featured in its advertising or
marketing efforts, or (iii) the sale of seafood constitutes thirty percent
(30%) or more of its entree sales, computed on a dollar basis. For purposes of
this Agreement, the term "seafood" shall mean and include all marine life
forms, whether or not edible, and any part of any marine life form (for
example, "shells", "fins", "claws").

         7.2      Confidentiality.

                  7.2(a)   Definition. For the purpose of this Agreement,
         "Proprietary Information" shall include that part of the Purchased
         Assets that consists of all information which reasonably would be
         considered proprietary or confidential to the business of operating
         Bonefish Grill restaurants including but not limited to suppliers,
         customers, trade or industrial practices, marketing and technical
         plans, technology, personnel, organization or internal affairs, plans
         for products and ideas, recipes, menus, wine lists and proprietary
         techniques and other trade secrets. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
         "Proprietary Information" shall not include information which has
         entered the public domain.

                  7.2(b)   No Disclosure, Use, or Circumvention. The BG Persons
         and their respective members and Affiliates shall not disclose any
         Proprietary Information to any third parties. Except in connection
         with their employment with Buyer or Buyer's Affiliates, or in their
         capacities as Members or Managers of OSS/BG, LLC, a Delaware limited
         liability company, or its Affiliates, the BG Persons will not use any
         Proprietary Information in the BG Persons' business or any affiliated
         business without the prior written consent of the Buyer and then only
         to the extent specified in that consent. Consent may be granted or
         withheld at the sole discretion of the Buyer.

                  7.2(c)   Maintenance of Confidentiality. The BG Persons shall
         take all steps reasonably necessary or appropriate to maintain the
         confidentiality of the Proprietary Information in accordance with this
         Agreement.

         7.3      Non-Solicitation. During all times in which any Royalty is
payable under SECTION 3 of this Agreement, and for a two-year period commencing
on termination of the Royalty, Seller, BGH, each BGH Principal and their
respective Affiliates shall not offer employment to any employee of the Buyer
or its Affiliates or otherwise solicit or induce any employee of the Buyer or
its Affiliates to terminate his or her employment, nor shall Seller, BGH, any
BGH Principal or any of their respective Affiliates act as partner, consultant,
agent, owner or part owner, for any person or entity which solicits or
otherwise induces any employee of the Buyer or its Affiliates to terminate his
or her employment with the Buyer, except for non-management personnel recruited
through general solicitations in print or other media.

         7.4      Reasonableness of Restrictions; Reformation; Enforcement. The
parties hereto recognize and acknowledge that the geographical and time
limitations contained in SECTIONS 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 hereof are reasonable and
properly required for the adequate protection of the Buyer's interests. It is
agreed by the parties hereto that if any portion of the restrictions contained
in SECTIONS 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3 are held to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against
public policy, then the restrictions shall be considered divisible, both as to
the time and to the geographical area, with each month of the specified period
being deemed a separate period of time and each radius mile of the restricted
territory being deemed a separate geographical area, so that the lesser period
of time or geographical area shall remain effective so long as the same is not
unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy. The parties hereto agree
that in the event any court of competent jurisdiction


                                       8
<PAGE>


determines the specified period or the specified geographical area of the
restricted territory to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, a
lesser time period or geographical area that is determined to be reasonable,
nonarbitrary, and not against public policy may be enforced. If any of the
covenants contained herein are violated and if any court action is instituted
by the Buyer to prevent or enjoin such violation, then the period of time
during which the business activities shall be restricted, as provided in this
Agreement, shall be lengthened by a period of time equal to the period between
the date of the breach of the terms or covenants contained in this Agreement
and the date on which the decree of the court disposing of the issues upon the
merits shall become final and not subject to further appeal.

         7.5      Specific Performance. The parties agree that a breach of any
of the covenants contained in SECTIONS 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 hereof will cause
irreparable injury to the Buyer for which the remedy at law will be inadequate
and would be difficult to ascertain and therefore, in the event of the breach
or threatened breach of any such covenants, the Buyer shall be entitled, in
addition to any other rights and remedies it may have at law or in equity, to
obtain an injunction to restrain any threatened or actual activities in
violation of any such covenants. The parties hereby consent and agree that
temporary and permanent injunctive relief may be granted in any proceedings
that might be brought to enforce any such covenants without the necessity of
proof of actual damages, and in the event the Buyer does apply for such an
injunction, that the Buyer has an adequate remedy at law shall not be raised as
a defense.

8.   FURTHER COVENANTS OF BG PERSONS

         The BG Persons covenant and agree as follows:

         8.1      Access to Information and Records. Prior to the Closing Date,
the BG Persons shall give Buyer, its counsel, accountants and other
representatives (i) access during normal business hours to all of the
properties, books, records, contracts and documents of the Seller relating to
the Purchased Assets for the purpose of such inspection, investigation and
testing as Buyer deems appropriate (and Seller shall furnish or cause to be
furnished to Buyer and its representatives all information with respect to the
business and affairs of Seller as Buyer may request); (ii) access to employees,
agents and representatives for the purposes of such meetings and communications
as Buyer reasonably desires; and (iii) access to vendors, customers,
manufacturers of its machinery and equipment, and others having business
dealings with Seller. Through the Closing Date, the Buyer and its Affiliates
shall not disclose any Proprietary Information obtained pursuant to this
paragraph to any third parties and until the Closing Date will not use any such
Proprietary Information in the Buyer's business or any affiliated business
without the prior written consent of the Seller and then only to the extent
specified in that consent. Consent may be granted or withheld at the sole
discretion of the Seller. The Buyer shall not contact any suppliers, customers,
employees, affiliates or associates to circumvent the purposes of this
provision. The Buyer shall take all steps reasonably necessary or appropriate
to maintain the strict confidentiality of the Proprietary Information through
the Closing Date.

         8.2      Conduct of Business Pending the Closing. From the date hereof
until the Closing Date, except as otherwise approved in writing by Buyer, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld:

                  8.2(a)   No Changes. Seller will cause the Subsidiaries, in
         all material respects, to carry on their business diligently and in
         the same manner as heretofore and will not make or institute any
         material changes in its methods of purchase, sale, management,
         accounting or operation.

                  8.2(b)   Maintain Organization. The Seller will take such
         action as may be necessary to maintain, preserve, renew and keep in
         favor the material rights and franchises of the Subsidiaries and will
         use its commercially reasonable best efforts, to the extent material
         hereto, to preserve the business organization of the Subsidiaries
         intact, to keep available to Buyer the present officers and employees,
         and to preserve for Buyer its present relationships with suppliers and
         customers and others having business relationships with the
         Subsidiaries.

                  8.2(c) No Breach. The BG Persons will not do or omit any act,
         or permit any omission to act, which would reasonably be expected to
         cause a breach of any material contract, commitment or obligation, or
         any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made
         by the BG Persons herein.

                  8.2(d) No Material Contracts. No contract or commitment will
         be entered into, by or on behalf of the BG Persons, except contracts,
         commitments, purchases or sales which are in the ordinary course of
         business and consistent with past practice, are not material to the BG
         Persons (individually or in the aggregate) and would not have been
         required to be disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule had they been in
         existence on the date of this Agreement.

                  8.2(e)   No Organizational Changes. Seller shall not
         materially amend its Operating Agreement or make any changes in
         ownership percentages.

                  8.2(f)   Maintenance of Insurance. Seller shall cause the
         Subsidiaries to maintain all of the insurance in effect as of the date
         hereof.

                  8.2(g)   No Negotiations. The BG Persons will not directly or
         indirectly (through a representative or otherwise) solicit or furnish
         any information to any prospective buyer, commence, or conduct
         presently ongoing, negotiations with any other party or enter into any
         agreement with any other party concerning the sale of the Purchased
         Assets, Seller's or any Subsidiary's assets or business or any part
         thereof or any membership interest in Seller or any Subsidiary (an
         "acquisition proposal"), and the BG Persons shall immediately advise
         Buyer of the receipt of any acquisition proposal.

         8.3      Consents. The BG Persons will use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all consents necessary for the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby prior to the Closing Date.

         8.4      Other Action. The BG Persons shall use commercially

all of the conditions to the parties' obligations to consummate the

have a continuing obligation to promptly notify Buyer in writing with respect
to any matter hereafter arising or discovered which, if existing or known at
the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or
described in the Disclosure Schedule, but no such disclosure shall cure any
breach of any representation or warranty which is inaccurate.

         8.6      Name Change. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date,
Seller and BGH shall change their names to names that do not include the word
"Bonefish". From and after the Closing Date, no BG Person shall have the right
to use the word "Bonefish" in their entity name.

         8.7      Termination of AmSouth Loan. The BG Persons covenant that no
amounts are outstanding and no amounts will be borrowed under that certain
Master Note for Business and Commercial Loan dated July 18, 2001 in the maximum
principal amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the AmSouth Loan")
between AmSouth Bank, as lender, BGH, as borrower, and St. Pete and Safety
Harbor, as guarantors. The BG Persons further covenant and agree that the
AmSouth Loan will be terminated and cancelled in its entirety within five (5)
business days from the Closing Date.

proceedings and assessments, whether or not ultimately determined to be valid.

         11.2     By Buyer. Subject to the terms and conditions of this SECTION
11, Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the BG Persons
and their directors, officers, employees and Affiliates from and against all
Claims asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon or incurred by any such
person, directly or indirectly, by reason of or resulting from (a) the
inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in or
made pursuant to this Agreement (regardless of whether such breach is deemed
"material"); (b) the breach of any covenant of Buyer contained in this
Agreement (regardless of whether such breach is deemed "material").

         11.3     Indemnification of Third-Party Claims. The obligations and
liabilities of any party to indemnify any other under this SECTION 11 with
respect to Claims relating to third parties shall be subject to the following
terms and conditions:

                  11.3(a)  Notice and Defense. The party or parties to be
         indemnified (whether one or more, the "Indemnified Party") will give
         the party from whom indemnification is sought (the "Indemnifying
         Party") written notice of any such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party
         will undertake the defense thereof by representatives chosen by it.
         Failure to give such notice shall not affect the Indemnifying Party's
         duty or obligations under this SECTION 11, except to the extent the
         Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. So long as the Indemnifying
         Party is defending any such Claim actively and in good faith, the
         Indemnified Party shall not settle such Claim. The Indemnified Party
         shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its representatives
         all records and other materials required by them and in the possession
         or under the control of the Indemnified Party, for the use of the
         Indemnifying Party and its representatives in defending any such
         Claim, and shall in other respects give reasonable cooperation in such
         defense.

                  11.3(b)  Failure to Defend. If the Indemnifying Party, within
         a reasonable time after notice of any such Claim, fails to defend such
         Claim actively and in good faith, the Indemnified Party will (upon
         further notice) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or
         settlement of such Claim or


                                      12
<PAGE>


         consent to the entry of a judgment with respect to such Claim, on
         behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party, and
         the Indemnifying Party shall thereafter have no right to challenge the
         Indemnified Party's defense, compromise, settlement or consent to
         judgment.

                  11.3(c)  Indemnified Party's Rights. Anything in this SECTION
         11 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) if there is a reasonable
         probability that a Claim may materially and adversely affect the
         Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages or other
         money payments, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend,
         compromise or settle such Claim, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall
         not, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or
         compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which
         does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the
         claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from
         all Liability in respect of such Claim.

         11.4     Payment. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay the
Indemnified Party any amount due under this SECTION 11, which payment may be
accomplished in whole or in part, at the option of the Indemnified Party, by
the Indemnified Party setting off any amount owed to the Indemnifying Party by
the Indemnified Party. To the extent set-off is made by an Indemnified Party in
satisfaction or partial satisfaction of an indemnity obligation under this
SECTION 11 that is disputed by the Indemnifying Party, upon a subsequent
determination by final judgment not subject to appeal that all or a portion of
such indemnity obligation was not owed to the Indemnified Party, the
Indemnified Party shall pay the Indemnifying Party the amount which was set off
and not owed together with interest from the date of set-off until the date of
such payment at an annual rate equal to the average annual rate in effect as of
the date of the set-off, on those three maturities of United States Treasury
obligations having a remaining life, as of such date, closest to the period
from the date of the set-off to the date of such judgment. Upon judgment,
determination, settlement or compromise of any third party Claim, the
Indemnifying Party shall pay promptly on behalf of the Indemnified Party,
and/or to the Indemnified Party in reimbursement of any amount theretofore
required to be paid by it, the amount so determined by judgment, determination,
settlement or compromise and all other Claims of the Indemnified Party with
respect thereto, unless in the case of a judgment an appeal is made from the
judgment. If the Indemnifying Party desires to appeal from an adverse judgment,
then the Indemnifying Party shall post and pay the cost of the security or bond
to stay execution of the judgment pending appeal. Upon the payment in full by
the Indemnifying Party of such amounts, the Indemnifying Party shall succeed to
the rights of such Indemnified Party, to the extent not waived in settlement,
against the third party who made such third party Claim.

         11.5     No Waiver. The closing of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver by any party of its rights to
indemnification hereunder, regardless of whether the party seeking
indemnification has knowledge of the breach, violation or failure of condition
constituting the basis of the Claim at or before the closing, and regardless of
whether such breach, violation or failure is deemed to be "material".

         11.6     Survival of Indemnification. The indemnification obligations
of the parties contained in this SECTION 11 shall survive the date of this
Agreement and the Closing Date for all Claims brought or demands for
indemnification made prior to the expiration of eighteen months from the
Closing Date.

         11.7     Determination of Losses. In determining an Indemnifying
Party's obligations under this SECTION 11 appropriate adjustment shall be made
for any insurance coverage paid to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party. An
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to an Indemnified Party for any special,
consequential or similar damages with respect to any Loss subject to
indemnification under this SECTION 11, provided, however, that this sentence
shall not limit the amount payable by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified
Party for reimbursement of amounts paid or payable to a third party.

14.      MISCELLANEOUS

         14.1     Disclosure Schedules. The representations and warranties of
Seller set forth in this Agreement are made and given subject to the
disclosures contained in the Disclosure Schedule. Seller shall not be or be
deemed to be in breach of any such representations and warranties (and no claim
shall lie in respect thereof) in respect of any such matter so disclosed in the
Disclosure Schedule. Where brief particulars only of a matter are set out or
referred to in the Disclosure Schedule, or a reference is made to a particular
part only of a disclosed document, full particulars of the matter and the full
contents of the document are deemed to be disclosed. The specific disclosures
set forth in the Disclosure Schedule have been organized by Seller to
correspond to section references in this Agreement to which the disclosure may
be most likely to relate, but such disclosure shall apply to and shall be
deemed to be disclosed for the purposes of this Agreement generally, and shall
be deemed to be exceptions to or modifications or qualifications of all of the
representations and warranties contained herein to the extent applicable. Buyer
shall be deemed to be aware of and there are deemed to have been disclosed to
Buyer as if herein set forth (a) all matters fairly disclosed or referred to or
contained in this Agreement and in all documents specifically referred to
therein; and (b) the contents of and all matters referred to in the documents
specifically listed in the Disclosure Schedule. In the event that there is any
inconsistency


                                      15
<PAGE>


between this Agreement and matters disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule,
information contained in the Disclosure Schedule shall prevail and shall be
deemed to be the relevant disclosure.

         14.2     Further Assurance. From time to time, upon request and
without further consideration, the parties will execute and deliver such
documents and take such other action as may be reasonably requested in order to
consummate more effectively the transactions contemplated hereby, including,
but not limited to, vesting in Buyer good and valid title to the business and
assets being transferred hereunder.

         14.3     Disclosures and Announcements. Both the timing and the
content of all disclosure to third parties and public announcements concerning
the transactions provided for in this Agreement by the Buyer or Seller shall be
subject to the approval of the other in all essential respects, except that
Seller's approval shall not be required as to any statements and other
information which Buyer may submit to the Securities and Exchange Commission,
NYSE or the stockholders of Buyer or Buyer's Affiliates, or be required to make
pursuant to any rule or regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission or
NYSE, or otherwise required by law.

         14.4     Assignment; Parties in Interest.

                  14.4(a)  Assignment. Except as expressly provided herein, the
         rights and obligations of a party hereunder may not be assigned,
         transferred or encumbered without the prior written consent of the
         other parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may, without
         consent of any other party, cause one or more subsidiaries or
         Affiliates of Buyer to carry out all or part of the transactions
         contemplated hereby; provided, however, that Buyer shall,
         nevertheless, remain liable for all of its obligations, and those of
         any such subsidiary, to the BG Persons hereunder.

                  14.4(b)  Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding
         upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the respective
         successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto. Nothing
         contained herein shall be deemed to confer upon any other person any
         right or remedy under or by reason of this Agreement.

         14.5     Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance
of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida without
giving effect to the principles of comity or conflicts of laws thereof.

         14.6     Consent to Personal Jurisdiction and Venue; Waiver of Jury
Trial; Attorney's Fees. Seller, Buyer and the BG Principals hereby consent to
personal jurisdiction and venue, for any action arising out of a breach or
threatened breach of this Agreement or out of the relationship established by
this Agreement, exclusively in the United States District Court for the Middle
District of Florida, Tampa Division, or in the Circuit Court in and for
Hillsborough County, Florida. Seller, Buyer and the BG Principals hereby agree
that any action brought by such person or entity, alone or in combination with
others, whether arising out of this Agreement or otherwise, shall be brought
exclusively in the United States District Court for the Middle District of
Florida, Tampa Division, or in the Circuit Court in and for Hillsborough
County, Florida. Seller, Buyer and the BG Principals hereby agree that any
controversy that may arise of this Agreement would involve complicated and
difficult factual and legal issues and that, as a result, any action shall be
determined by a judge and not a jury. In the event of any legal proceeding
arising, directly or indirectly, from this Agreement, the prevailing party in
such legal proceedings shall be entitled to attorney's fees and costs from the
non-prevailing party.

         14.7     Amendment and Modification. Buyer and the BG Persons may
amend, modify and supplement this Agreement in such manner as may be agreed
