Ac res & Ac res Mall, in Electrumburg, a fast growing suburb of Starburstville.

3.0 Products and Services


The Fire Fountain Grille is a comfortable, inviting restaurant designed to make our customers
feel as if they are enjoying VIP services in a world all to themselves. The dec or and theme is
centered around the custom made "Fire Fountain", a unique show kitchen grill that has a
cascading water fountain c ombined with flame throwing torches on the dining room side, and is a
sizzling 48" gas powered steak grill on the kitchen side. The energy and atmosphere of the
restaurant is high, and draws some of its power from the dazzling "Fire Fountain".
The real power and energy of the restaurant comes from the attentive and courteous service
provided by our floor staff, and the indesc ribably delicious steaks and other entrees caringly
prepared by our motivated kitchen team. Each night that we are open, two managers are on
duty. One manager carefully orchestrates the proper execution of the kitchen, so that all food
comes out prepared perfectly, and on time. The other manager attends to the flow of the
dining room, there to fac ilitate outstanding customer service and satisfac tion. Our floor
managers are extremely high profile, taking the time to greet every customer at some point in
their stay. Our customer service policy is simple: All customers must leave happy about our
service and food!
We are a dinner-house, but we do offer lunch on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We have a
"late-night seating" 10:00 pm-1:00 am Friday and Saturday. The lights come way down,
and customers enjoy light jazz music, and a disc ount on certain food and beverage items. Gift
Certificates always available. We have private dining fac ilities for group events, and we offer
full catering services for events at any loc ation! We offer "take-out" food for those on the
run! Visitors to our website will find upcoming events, specials, and catering and gift certificate

am-1:00 am; Sunday 11:00 am-9:00 pm.

3.1 Competitive Comparison


PF Chang's, Houston's and TGI Friday's are chains that offer fun atmospheres for
comparison purposes. Our most competitive edge is our managers, and their ability and
willingness to create goodwill among our customers, and to overcome any perceived difficulty,
and indeed, turn it around into a positive experience.
The Fire Fountain Grille offers steaks and other foods that are prepared with an irresistible
combination of flavors and spices. No one else in the industry serves steaks as delicious as ours.

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy
Strategically, targeting the 30-44 year old age range in upper middle class areas close to our
restaurant helps serve the needs and requirements of our customers, and ties in logically with
our marketing plan (see Marketing Plan) and style of restaurant. Typically, the upper middle class
in the 30-44 range are raising families whose children range from toddlers to teens, yet tend to
continue to have "disposable" dollars available for a quality diversion (such as Fire Fountain Grille)
to get them away from home and work. These customers have regimented sc hedules in their
lives, and find value in exceptional service, timely service, and mouth watering, delightful food. If
a couple chooses to leave the kids home, they'll find value in the form of satisfac tion and fun
together, in their diversionary time. If they bring the kids, they will appreciate a value based kids
menu. This first tier of our market segment, is also the primary foc us of our marketing plan
(see Marketing Plan), which has a deep commitment to foc using on kids, at their sc hools and in
their community. These kids are primarily the children of our 30-44 tier-one group. Industry
research (Nation's Restaurant News) has shown that the 30-44 age group appreciates
steaks, chops, chicken and seafood dishes prepared with lightly seasoned recipes, which is a
perfect fit for Fire Fountain Grille.
Our SECOND-TIER market group (45-59 / $55,000 - $ 80,000), will also find value in great
service, and delicious food, and will appreciate a restaurant with a much better wine list than
what is normally available in the upsc ale casual dining niche. Fire Fountain Grille will also be
considered a refreshing escape from restaurants that sing and clap for birthdays.
Our THIRD-TIER group, the 21-29 year olds will find that the menu contains many favorites
available to them that are considered essential: tantalizing appetizers, spicy steaks, and
hundreds of coc ktails and specialty beers. The Fire Fountain turns down the lights for late
hour business on the weekends, and offers jazz and food and beverage specials, offering our
customers a chance for some soc ializing and conversation.
FOURTH-TIER simply extends the market radius out to a five mile area, with the same
demographics included in tiers 1-3.
FIFTH-TIER (60+ / $65,000+), represents a market that has abundant disposable income, and
truly reveres attentive, efficient service. Fire Fountain Grille serves all of its meals with the
option of cooking with little or no spices. This customization is much more appreciated by this
group, who often prefer meals prepared to their own spec ifications. Because Fire Fountain
Grille has only one purpose in mind when it comes to our customers All Customers Must
Leave Happy, customizing a meal to our treasured customers will always be a pleasure!
The SIXTH-TIER group will benefit from all of the quality approaches that are marketed to the
previous five tiers, and will gain exposure to us primarily through our community involvement
and word-of-mouth.

4.2.1 Market Trends


The trends in the Starburstville Metro market rely heavily on visual appeal, and loc ations. Most
restaurants overlook targeting kids as a way to market to the parents. The Fire Fountain Grille
does not seek to market to kids to get them to eat at our restaurant, but rather as a way to get
their parents to eat there.

Page 13

The Fire Fountain Grille


4.2.2 Market Growth
Steak restaurants comprise less than 5% of the total restaurant market. Service oriented
steak houses have room to grow. Meat and potatoes is still what Americans want, and they
want it with good service.

4.2.3 Market Needs


The market suffers from a lac k of service oriented restaurants. The market needs a restaurant
that values the customer as its number one priority.

4.3 Service Business Analysis


All restaurants combined, from fast food to fine dining, show an average bottom line profit of 310%. Margins are much better in full service restaurants with good management, good staff,
good concepts, good menus and wine lists, good loc ation and good financial controls. A full
service steakhouse with all of these fac tors should show a bottom line profit of 13% - 25%.

4.3.1 Competition and Buying Patterns


The general nature of competition in this business, and how the customers seem to choose
one provider over another can be measured by customer loyalty and positive word of mouth.
Customer loyalty and brand preference come from developing a trust between the customer
and the business. To be successful in the hospitality business, one must truly believe in, and
always apply, the fundamental meaning of hospitality, which simply stated is, one must always
be hospitable, and the customer must truly be made to feel welcome and cared for. The trust
that a customer feels, is based upon the business' ability to recognize what it takes to please
a customer, and then is built upon by continuously delivering to that customer at, or above,
the level of expec tation that the customer expec ts. Fire Fountain Grille has carefully selected
a management team that has been spec ially trained in the high art of exceptional customer
service. The sc reening, hiring and training standards for front-of-the house staff are the
highest in the industry.
The level of attention and care that our staff bestows upon our customers sets us far above our
competition. Fire Fountain Grille also has extremely high standards for professionalism in the
kitchen. Cleanliness, freshness of ingredients, adherence to recipe and cooking standards, and
efficiency are constantly applied. Prices are reasonable, and are perceived as being an
exceptional value. Fire Fountain Grille offers extremely delicious steaks, tantalizing chicken
dishes, savory grilled seafoods, tender prime rib, fresh salads, sensational appetizers, tempting
desserts and refreshing beverages. All of this can be found in an environment with an ambience
that is unusual, and very comfortable. Our signature "Fire Fountain" fills the restaurant with an
exciting glow, and the soothing sounds of falling water. The seating is almost all private
booths, creating an atmosphere of relaxation and comfort.
The Fire Fountain Grille is conveniently loc ated on a highly visible ingress near a successful
mall. The restaurant has a huge, secure parking lot, excellent ingress and egress, and a beautiful
and highly noticeable exterior. This area has other restaurants, which is a definite plus for us.
This allows us to capitalize on a positive "clustering" effect, and works well with our marketing

5.0 Strategy and Implementation Summary


Emphasize service
We will differentiate ourselves with SERVICE! We will establish our business offering as a clear
and viable alternative for our target market, from the sc ores of "rubber chicken", frozen food,
and "Happy Birthday singing" restaurant chains.
Build a relationship-oriented business
Build long-term relationships with c ustomers, not single-visit deals. Become their restaurant
and destination of choice. Make them understand the value of the relationship.
Focus on target markets
We need to foc us our offerings on specific population groups as the key market segment we
should own. We do not want to compete for the buyers who go to fast food or "microwave
frozen foods" types of "restaurants. We definitely want to be able to sell to smart, quality
consc ious customers.

5.1 Competitive Edge


Clearly, our competitive edge is the customer service experience and approach that our
management team will bring to the table. Our smiling, unassuming and good natured approach
to all of our customers is evident, and highly appreciated. Our recipes are delicious, and the
portions are large. The foods are fresh and satisfying, and the drinks are fulfilling and refreshing.

5.2.4 Marketing Programs


Children's tours will be an ongoing program that has proven to work over and over again. The
kids are brought to the restaurant by teac hers or parents, in groups of no more than 25, and are
greeted at the door by our manager. They all go inside and are seated near the Fire Fountain
where they are told a cool short story. They then are taken on a tour of the store and kitchen
and get to go inside of a giant refrigerator, and see some cool cooks doing their thing. Then
everyone is seated for a free lunch of "Chicken Toes" or "Hot Doggies" and soda pop. Everybody
talks a little about restaurants and other neat stuff. When its time to say goodbye, we take
pictures and everybody gets an appetizer or dessert card, and some promotional menus. When
the kids come bac k with their parents, we address the kids by their first names and treat them
special.

5.3 Sales Strategy


We require our servers to have a thorough and comprehensive understanding of the menus,
ingredients and methods of preparation of all of our foods and beverages. We train our staff to
always describe and recommend items, even to regular customers, and to always upsell. The key
to a server's success in upselling is the realization that it almost always brings in better tips
bec ause the chec ks are higher.
GIFT CERTIFICATES
The Fire Fountain Grille will aggressively sell gift certificates. The strategy behind gift
certificate sales is simple and proven. Most GC sales oc cur during the holidays. Most GC's are
then redeemed in the post holiday months of January and February, helping drive sales in those
traditionally slower months.

5.3.1 Sales Forecast


The first month sales will open strongly, bec ause of the advance buzz created by our preopening marketing, and our Grand Opening Festivities. Sales will drop off slightly as we begin to
sort out our operational patterns. September is a slower month for restaurants. October and
November see sales begin to build as we continue with our marketing, and relentless quality.
December sees a sharp spike upward as the Holidays are in full swing. A typical week for the first
six months will look like this (conservative estimate):
Sun.

Mon.

Tues.

5.4 Strategic Alliances


The Fire Fountain Grille will align with hotels, movie theatres, live theatres, cab companies, banks
and retail stores in an informational broc hure exchange. Each business will have a chance to
promote the other businesses at their plac e of business. Additionally, our respec tive
businesses will barter with eac h other, using gift certificates and comps.

5.5 Milestones
The milestone table is set up as a flow-chart. We opted to exclude budgeted dollars in the
milestone category bec ause we detailed these dollars in the start-up table. The milestone
table is spec ific in detail, allowing for the smooth flow of functions that are nec essary to set
up the restaurant on sc hedule for the Grand Opening. Each function is timed to coincide with the
proper execution and time needed to complete eac h task. Each Managing Partner has specific
duties assigned spec ifically to his area of expertise. The end of the milestone table also shows
the beginning of the 2004 marketing plan.

6.0 Web Plan Summary


Our website, is an opportunity to offer current information on spec ial events, menu offerings,
public service announcements and comp specials.

6.1 Website Marketing Strategy


Our website will be promoted on all of our menus, and promo pieces. We will link to CitySearch.
com and many other hospitality oriented websites and portals.

6.2 Development Requirements


The Fire Fountain Grille website will be initially developed with few technical resources. VeriSign
will host the site and provide the technical bac k end. We will maintain a simple, classy, yet
Internet foc used site. The website logos, and graphics will be the same artwork found on our
hard-copy menus, and in various spots in the business plan. Our managers will maintain the
website. As the website rolls out future development such as restaurant delivery options,
newsletters and downloadable market research reports, a technical resource may need to be
contrac ted to build the trac kable download and the newsletter capabilities. We will also look into
pre-pac kaged solutions through VeriSign and other Web hosting resources.

7.0 Management Summary


We will open with a team of four manager/owners, one bookkeeper, and fifty-three staff
members. Each member of the management team has specific industry experience that will
apply to their assignment. Each Vice Managing Partner will also cross train for one year in
preparation for their promotions to their own Fire Fountain Grille units. This is an extremely
experienced and well balanced team. There are no gaps in its structure.

Page 21

The Fire Fountain Grille


7.1 Personnel Plan
The personnel table (labor pro-forma) shows the number, and structure of the "bac k-of-thehouse" (BOH), "front-of-the-house" (FOH), and management staffs. June 2004 has a higher
labor cost, as is usual in a restaurant start-up. Labor costs come down as the operation begins
to flow more smoothly. The service staff is large, and is nec essary to provide the level of service
that the Fire Fountain Grille needs to set it apart from the competition.

8.0 Financial Plan
Our main c oncerns will be aggressive time management, so that our labor costs stay under
control, and proper purchasing, prep and food handling to keep food costs down, as well as
managing the higher costs of meats and seafoods. Secondarily, hiring the best grill and broiler
cooks, training them properly and retaining them will be a critical component to good meat and
seafood costs. A good grill cook does not waste steaks by burning them, nor does he anger
customers by undercooking them. He must also be ac curate time after time in how he carves
his prime rib.
Growth will be sustained through a contribution to an expansion fund, and potential investment
from current investors in a "roll-over" plan, and from potential future investors or bank capital.

8.1 Start-up Funding


We are seeking $900,000 (see section 2.2 "Start-up Summary"), and will seek it from one, two,
or three investment groups, or under an SEC "Regulation D" equity offering (where the
company sells partial ownership in the company - via the sale of stoc k or a membership unit, to
raise capital). We prefer this approach as an early stage company bec ause there is no set
repayment schedule or debt service payments - the investors profit when the company profits.
Initially, the company is projected as a Limited Partnership, but may switch the preferred
structure to a stoc k "C" Corporation or Limited Liability Corporation "LLC". The preparation of
the investment documents will be handled in a cooperative effort by the legal firms
representing eac h party individually. These documents will include, but are not limited to:
Private Placement Memorandum
The Private Plac ement Memorandum, or "PPM", is the doc ument that disc loses all pertinent
information to the investors about the company, proposed company operations, the
transaction structure (whether we are selling equity ownership or raising debt financing from
the investors), the terms of the investment (share price, note amounts, maturity dates, etc.),
risks the investors may fac e, etc.
Form D SEC Filing
It notifies the SEC that we are using the Regulation D program and provides them basic
information on the company and the offering. It is not an approval document or registration - it
is merely a filing that notifies the SEC that we have a Regulation D Offering in plac e. Raising
capital from investors without filing this document with the Federal government could plac e a
company in violation of securities laws.
Subscription Agreement
The Subsc ription Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of the investment. It is the
"sales contrac t" for purchasing the securities.
Promissory Note
For a debt offering (if nec essary), outlining the terms of any loan arrangement with the

investors. The note is the ac tual "loan document" between the company and the investor.

8.3 Projected Profit and Loss


2004 is not a full year on the yearly P&L. Highlights include a bottom line of better than 18%
for every year. The numbers reflect realism in the start up and continuing operations of the
restaurant. We begin c ontributing aggressively to an expansion fund in 2005. We begin
ac cruing for vac ations immediately, and we are budgeting money from the insurance line for
health benefits, all as an early commitment to the future prosperity of our staff. These
numbers are an excellent indication that our investors, owners, partners and staff will all

8.4 Projected Cash Flow
The cash flow depends on assumptions for good daily operational management, good traffic
counts in the restaurant, inventory turnover, payment days, and ac counts receivable
management. We will need no new financing until we open our second unit.
Initial projections are a sales-to-investment ratio in excess of 2-to-1, return on investment in
excess of 30 percent and return on equity of 20 percent-plus.
