                                    ARTICLE I

                                 CERTAIN MATTERS

              Section 1.1 Effectiveness. Sections 1.3 and 1.4 and Articles II
and III of this Agreement shall become effective only upon the time of first
acceptance for payment of Shares under the Offer (as such capitalized terms are
defined in the Merger Agreement). If the Merger Agreement is terminated for any
reason, then this Agreement shall terminate and be of no force or effect.

              Section 1.2 Company Option. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in the Change of Control Agreement, each vested option to
acquire shares of Company common stock held by Consultant at the Effective Time
(as defined in the Merger Agreement) which has an exercise price less than the
Offer Price (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) shall be cancelled
and terminated at the Effective Time in consideration for a payment in cash by
the Company to Consultant promptly following the Effective Time of an amount
equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the excess (if any) of the
Offer Price over the per share exercise price of such option and (y) the number
of shares of Company common stock covered by such option. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in the Change of Control Agreement, effective
as of and subject to the Effective Time, Consultant releases, waives and forever
relinquishes any options to acquire shares of Company common stock held by
Consultant at the Effective Time pursuant to any stock option plan or otherwise,
whether or not such options are vested or unvested, in respect of which the
Company is not obligated to make a payment to the Consultant pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence. Nothing in this Section 1.2 shall prohibit the
Consultant from exercising any options to acquire shares of Company common stock
prior to the Effective Time.

              Section 1.3 Compensation and Related Matters.

                   (a) Consulting Fee. In consideration of the covenants of the
Consultant contained in this Agree-

hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) on July 1, 2001; (ii) an amount equal to two
times the Consultant's Annual Compensation (as defined in the Change of Control
Agreement), through the continued bi-weekly payment to the Consultant of his
annual base salary after the date of termination of Consultant's employment,
provided that if the entire amount specified in this clause (ii) has not been
paid to the Consultant by July 1, 2001 through such bi-weekly payments then any
such remaining amount shall be paid to the Consultant in a lump sum on July 1,
2001; (iii) an amount equal to the six month cost to Consultant of continuing
Consultant's present health care coverage under the Company's COBRA program
(grossed up to compensate Consultant for the taxable nature of such payment),
payable in twelve equal bi-weekly installments after the date of the termination
of Consultant's employment with the Company; and (iv) an amount equal to the six
month cost to the Company of continuing to provide Consultant's current
non-electable life insurance and insurance coverage for accidental death and
disability assuming Consultant had continued as an employee of the Company (all
as grossed-up to compensate Consultant for the taxable nature of such
payments), payable in twelve equal bi-weekly installments after the date of the
termination of Consultant's employment with the Company. The Purchaser shall
have no right of setoff under this Agreement.

                   (b) Business Expenses. The Consultant will be reimbursed by
Purchaser for all ordinary and reasonable business expenses incurred by him in
connection with his performance of consulting services hereunder upon submission
by the Consultant of receipts and other documentation as may be requested by
Purchaser.

              Section 1.4 Termination of Employment. Effective as of the time of
first acceptance of Shares for payment under the Offer, the Consultant: (i)
acknowledges and agrees that his employment with the Company shall be
terminated, and, except as expressly provided for under this Agreement, the
Company shall not owe Consultant any monies, securities, severance payments or
other consideration with respect to his terminated em-

under the Change of Control Agreement; (ii) shall resign as a director of the
Company and its subsidiaries (including The Rainforest Cafe Friends of the

Company of any and all of its obligations under the Change of Control Agreement
and agrees that the Change of Control Agreement shall expire and terminate and

engage the Consultant, and the Consultant hereby agrees to perform services for
Purchaser, on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

              Section 2.2 Term. The term (the "Term") of the covenants contained
in Article II of this Agreement is for the twenty-four month period commencing
as of the time of the first acceptance for payment of Shares under the Offer,
subject to earlier termination pursuant hereto.

              Section 2.3 Duties and Reporting Relationship. From time to time
during the Term, the Consultant shall perform such services relating to the

to provide more than ten (10) hours per week of consulting services to Purchaser
for the first three months of the Term, and no more than twenty (20) hours per
month of consulting services to Purchaser thereafter, except in each case as
agreed to by the Consultant. The scheduling of such time shall be at the
Consultant's sole discretion. Except as provided in Article IV hereof, Purchaser
acknowledges that the Consultant is permitted to pursue other activities,
whether of a personal or business nature, and, accordingly, may not always be
immediately available to Purchaser.

<PAGE>   5


              Section 2.4 Place of Performance. The Consultant shall perform his
duties and conduct his business at such locations as are reasonably acceptable
to him; provided, however, that, as mutually agreed, the Consultant will be
available to travel domestically to meet from time to time with representatives
of Purchaser.

services to Purchaser as the Consultant and the President of the Purchaser (or
his designee) shall mutually agree with respect to (i) Purchaser and Company
business matters relating to the transition period prior to and following the
Merger and (ii) integration of the business of the Company with the business of
Purchaser.


                                   ARTICLE IV

                                 NON-COMPETITION

              Section 4.1 Reasonableness of Provisions.

                   (a) The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the
provisions contained in Article IV of this Agreement are reasonable with respect
to their duration, geographical area and scope. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Consultant further acknowledges and agrees that any and
all of the provisions of Article IV of this Agreement are reasonable and
necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Purchaser. For purposes of
this Article IV only, the term "Purchaser" shall mean any and all of Purchaser
and its subsidiaries from time to time (including, without limitation, the
Surviving Corporation (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) from and
after the time of the first acceptance for payment of Shares under the Offer).


                                       5
<PAGE>   6


                   (b) The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the food
service and theme restaurant business of the Purchaser (as such business is
conducted as of the date of this Agreement and may be conducted from time to
time in the future, the "Business") is intensely competitive and that the
Consultant has had access to, has and may in the future have knowledge of
confidential information of the Purchaser, including, but not limited to, the
identity of the Purchaser's suppliers, franchisees and other persons with whom
Purchaser has business relationships, the identity of the representatives of
such persons with whom the Purchaser has dealt, information concerning the
creation or development of products offered by Purchaser, demographic and other
information related to actual and targeted customers of Purchaser, computer
software applications and other programs, personnel information, intellectual
property and other trade secrets (collectively, the "Confidential Information").

                   (c) The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the direct or
indirect disclosure by the Consultant of any Confidential Information to
existing or potential competitors of the Purchaser or the Business would place
the Purchaser at a competitive disadvantage and would do serious damage,
monetary and otherwise, to the Purchaser and the Business.

                   (d) The Consultant acknowledges and agrees that the
Consultant's engaging in any of the activities prohibited by this Agreement may
constitute improper appropriation or use of the Confidential Information or
both. The Consultant acknowledges the trade secret status of the Confidential
Information and that the Confidential Information constitutes a protectible
business interest of Purchaser.

              Section 4.2 Noncompetition.

         cessation of employment of such person or the termination of such
         person's other status, as the case may be, with the Purchaser;
         provided, however, that nothing in this clause (v) shall prohibit the
         Consultant from employing any Group 2 Employee (as defined in the
         Merger Agreement) as an employee, independent contractor, consultant,
         advisor or otherwise, at any time from and after ninety days following

                   Telecopier No.: (713) 623-4702

              If to the Consultant:

                   Ercument Ucan
                   540 Sunny Shadows
                   Excelsior, Minnesota  55331
                   Telephone No.: (612) 470-4528

              Section 5.4 Specific Performance. The Consultant recognizes and
agrees that if for any reason any of the provisions of this Agreement are not
performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached,
immediate and irreparable harm or injury would be caused to the Purchaser for
which money damages would not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, the Consultant
agrees that, in addition to any other available remedies, the Purchaser shall be
entitled to an injunction re straining any violation or threatened violation of
the provisions of this Agreement without the necessity of posting a bond or
other form of security. In the event that any action should be brought in equity
to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, the Consultant shall not allege,
and the Consultant hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy
at law.

              Section 5.5 Severability; Modification. If any provision(s) of
this Agreement shall for any reason be invalid or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, such provision(s) shall be ineffective in such jurisdiction to the
extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without invalidating or rendering
unenforceable the remaining provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or
unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provisions in any other


                                       14

jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the immediately preceding
sentence, in the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that
the provisions of this Agreement would be unenforceable as written because they
cover too extensive a geographic area, too broad a range of activities, or too
long a period of time, or otherwise, then such provisions will automatically be
modified to cover the maximum geographic area, range of activities, and period
of time as may be enforceable, and, in addition, such court is hereby expressly
authorized so to modify this Agreement and to enforce it as so modified.

              Section 5.6 Interpretation. The parties have participated jointly
in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. Consequently, in the event an
ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall
be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the
authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

              Section 5.7 Assignment. Neither this Agree ment, nor any rights,
interests or obligations hereunder, may be directly or indirectly assigned,
delegated or transferred by any party to this Agreement, in whole or in part, to
any other person without the prior written consent of the other party hereto;
provided, however, that the Purchaser may freely assign (whether by operation
of law or otherwise) all or a portion of its rights under this Agreement. The
Company shall be entitled to rely upon the Consultant's undertakings and
agreements contained in this Agreement.

              Section 5.8 Miscellaneous. No provisions of this Agreement may be
modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is
agreed to in writing signed by the parties hereto. No waiver by a party hereto
at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any
condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party
shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at
the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations,
oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the


                                       15

subject matter hereof have been made by the parties which are not set forth
expressly in this Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State in which the Purchaser is incorporated on
the date hereof, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law
thereunder or of any other jurisdiction.

              Section 5.9 Contents of Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the
entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the matters contemplated
hereby. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and under standings among
the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof.

              Section 5.10 Section Headings and Gender. All Section headings and
the use of a particular gender are for convenience only and shall in no way
modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

              Section 5.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but both of which
together will constitute one and the same instrument.

              Section 5.12 Provision of Notice. Purchaser shall notify
Consultant in the event that Purchaser has knowledge that Consultant has
materially violated any of his obligations under this Agreement; provided,
however, that any failure by Purchaser to provide, or any delay in Purchaser's
providing, any such notice to Consultant shall not in any manner affect, limit,
discharge, waive or restrict (i) any of the Purchaser's or the Company's rights
under this Agreement or under law or (ii) any of the Consultant's obligations
under this Agreement.
