and without further consideration, (i) Sellers, upon the request of
Purchaser and at Sellers' expense, shall execute and deliver such
documents and instruments of conveyance and transfer as Purchaser
may reasonably request in order to consummate more effectively the

to vest in Purchaser title to the Acquired Assets transferred

action as Sellers would otherwise be required to take pursuant to
this Section 2.2, Section 5.1 or Section 5.3 but for the cost
thereof by advancing to Sellers the amounts Sellers reasonably
anticipate incurring in excess of immaterial costs and expenses in

2.3 Owned Real Estate.
(a) Within two (2) business days of execution of this

of the Title Reports, but in no event later than July 6, 1999,
Purchaser shall identify to Sellers, in writing, each parcel of
Owned Real Property that Purchaser determines, on a commercially
reasonable basis, as to which there exists use restrictions of
record that would individually or in the aggregate (i) with respect
to Owned Real Property located at Kennesaw, Georgia and Sterling
Heights, Michigan, prevent the construction or operation of a
prototypical Chuck E. Cheese's restaurant or (ii) with respect to
any of the Owned Real Property, other than Kennesaw or Sterling
Heights properties, materially detracts from the value of, or
impairs the use of, the affected properties (each a "NCP").
(b) In the event Purchaser shall identify one or more NCPs,

shall be adjusted with respect to each NCP by such amount as (i)
Purchaser, Sellers and McDonald's Corporation ("McDonald's") shall
mutually agree within thirty (30) days of Closing, or (ii)
thereafter as is determined through binding "Baseball Arbitration".
For this purpose, Baseball Arbitration shall mean an arbitration
where Sellers, Purchaser and McDonald's each propose a price
adjustment for each NCP (based on whatever factors each believes
are relevant) and the arbitral panel chooses one of the submissions
without any hearing.
(d) "Baseball Arbitration" shall be conducted as set forth
in this subparagraph (d).
(i) There shall be a panel of three (3)
arbitrators; one each to be selected by each of Purchaser, Sellers
and McDonald's, with each arbitrator to have professional
experience in the marketing and valuation of retail real estate in
the geographic area in which the subject NCPs are located;
(ii) The adjustment to the purchase price with
respect to each NCP will be determined assuming an aggregate
purchase price for all Owned Real Property of $15,500,000.00 (net
of selling and carry costs), to be offset by positive EBITDA less
direct overhead allocated to acquired Owned Real Property.
(A) If the aggregate value of the fifteen (15)
properties (including NCPs) equals or exceeds $15,500,000.00 no
adjustment will be made to the Purchase Price.
(B) If the aggregate value of the fifteen (15)
properties (including NCPs) is less than $15,500,000.00 an
adjustment will be made to reduce the Purchase Price based on the
determination of the arbitrators of the impairment of NCP property,
but in no event will the adjustment to the Purchase Price increase
the value of the fifteen (15) properties above $15,500,000.00;
provided, however, the reduction to the Purchase Price will not, in
any event, exceed $1,000,000.00 in aggregate, and shall be payable
out of the Adjustment Escrow. Any payment remitted to Purchaser in
satisfaction of any Purchase Price shall be free of liens, claims
and encumbrances.
(e) McDonald's shall be a third party beneficiary of this
Agreement solely to the extent of this Section 2.3, provided,
however, that upon the payment in full of McDonald's allowed claim
in the Chapter 11 Cases, whether on consent or otherwise, any
rights of McDonald's under this Section 2.3 shall automatically
terminate.

COVENANTS OF SELLERS
5.1 Consents and Approvals. Sellers shall use their
reasonable efforts (i) to obtain all consents and approvals, as
reasonably requested by Purchaser, to consummate the purchase and
sale of the Acquired Assets and the assignment of the Assumed
Obligations, together with any other necessary consents and
approvals to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby,
including, without limitation, obtaining the Sale Order, (ii) to
make, as reasonably requested by Purchaser, all filings,
applications, statements and reports to all authorities that are
required to be made prior to the Closing Date by or on behalf of

transferable, to assist Purchaser in obtaining replacements
therefor; provided that Sellers shall not be required to make any
filing in connection with the transfer of a Permit or take any
other action required by this sentence unless Purchaser advances
any and all fees and other charges imposed by any applicable
authority in connection with such filing, transfer or other
requested action. In the event that certain Permits are not
transferable or replacements therefor are not obtainable on or

shall be entitled to make claims against Sellers' insurance
policies and coverage that are occurrence policies from and after
the Closing Date for all matters, injuries and claims arising prior
to the Closing Date relating in any way to the Acquired Assets or
Assumed Obligations in the same manner and subject to the same
terms, conditions and limitations as Sellers prior to the Closing
Date and provided that Sellers shall not incur any cost by virtue
of such claims by Purchaser. Purchaser will have no obligations or
liabilities under such insurance policies for premiums, additional
premiums or similar payments after the Closing Date, either due to
retroactive adjustments, audits, roll-backs or otherwise. Subject
to the provisions of Section 2.2 and to the same proviso as is set
forth at the beginning of this Section 5.2, and at no cost or
expense to Sellers, Sellers will cooperate after the Closing Date
with Purchaser and its insurance carriers and agents in connection
with the foregoing and with Purchaser in establishing new insurance

be entitled to make claims against Sellers' insurance policies and
coverage only to the extent permitted by the carriers of such
insurance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.2 shall

self-insured retention of Sellers and Sellers shall have no duty or

lien upon any Acquired Assets. All Cure Amounts and taxes required
to be paid pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall be paid on or before
