We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of The Grill, a California

Inventories consisting of food, beverages and supplies are carried at the lower
of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.

Leasehold improvements 10 - 31.5 years
Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and major betterments are

taxes on their share of income allocated to them. The State of California
