Exchange Act, of all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each
member of such group, or an aggregate of 1,262,181 shares of Common Stock of the

issued and outstanding on May 6, 1998 and the portion of options to

then exercisable or become exercisable within 60 days after the date hereof)
approximately 15.2% of the total of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and
such portion of such options.

         Larry J. Harris is the beneficial owner of 1,147,156 (13.9%) shares of

or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, Federal or State securities

respect to our proposal in connection with your bid to acquire Pollo Tropical,

undertaking set forth in our proposal and the effort and expense we have
incurred and will be incurring with respect thereto, you will work exclusively

to effect the acquisition, unless and until this letter agreement is terminated.

         You further agree that in the event an agreement of sale, merger or
recapitalization is entered into by Pollo Tropical, Inc. within 30 days of the
date hereof with a party other than Quad-C, Inc. providing for the conversion
of the outstanding common stock of Pollo Tropical, Inc. into cash or securities
of another issuer and such transaction is consummated at an effective price per
share above $10.00, then upon consummation of such transaction you shall pay to

out-of-pocket expenses, including expenses paid by Quad-C, Inc. to its
financial, legal, accounting and other advisors, in connection with this

termination by Quad-C, Inc. of its proposal for the acquisition of Pollo
