Very truly yours,

CHUY’S OPCO, INC.

Chuy’s Opco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Goode Partners LLC (the “Advisor”) and its partners (both general and limited), members (both managing and otherwise), stockholders, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, employees, advisors, attorneys, representatives and agents and each of the partners, members, stockholders, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, employees, advisors, attorneys, representatives and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Advisor Group”) from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, arising out of or in connection with the services rendered by the Advisor or any member of the Advisor Group (including any services in connection with the closing of the Transactions) under the Advisory Agreement to which this Schedule I is attached or the engagement of the Advisor, whether or not a member of the Advisor Group is a party, whether or not resulting in liability and whether or not any such action, suit, claim, proceeding or investigation is initiated or brought by the Company. The Company will reimburse the Advisor Group for all fees and expenses, (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and any and all expenses incurred investigating, preparing for or defending against any litigation commenced or threatened, or any claim, and any and all amounts paid in settlement of such action, suit, claim, proceeding, investigation or litigation) as they are incurred by the Advisor Group in connection with investigating, preparing, pursuing, defending or assisting in the defense of any action, claim, suit, investigation or proceeding, whether pending or threatened and whether or not the Advisor Group is a party thereto. The Company will not, however, be responsible for any claims, liabilities, damages, losses or expenses to the extent that such claims, liabilities, damages, losses or expenses are finally determined by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction from which no further appeal may be taken, to have resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Advisor Group. The foregoing agreement will be in addition to any rights that the Advisor Group may have at common law or otherwise, including, but not limited to, any right to contribution. The provisions of this Schedule I are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each member of the Advisor Group and its respective successors, heirs and representatives.

Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the Company also agrees that the Advisor Group will have no liability to the Company in connection with the services rendered under the Advisory Agreement (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) for claims, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, incurred by the Company unless, and to the extent, they are finally determined by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the Advisor Group’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Notwithstanding anything else in this Schedule I, this Schedule I shall not affect any indemnification obligations set forth in the Purchase Agreement (as defined in the Advisory Agreement).

If indemnification is for any reason not available or insufficient to hold any member of the Advisor Group harmless, the Company agrees to contribute to the liabilities involved in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by the Company, on the one hand, and the Advisor or its designee, on the other hand, with respect to the services, or if such allocation is determined by a court or arbitral tribunal to be unavailable, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect other equitable considerations such as the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Advisor or its designee, on the other hand; provided, however, that to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Advisor Group will not be responsible for amounts which in the aggregate are in excess of the amount of all fees actually received by the Advisor or its designees from the Company with respect to the services rendered in accordance with the Advisory Agreement.

If indemnification is to be sought hereunder by a member of the Advisor Group, then such member will notify the Company of the threat or commencement of any action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability that it may otherwise have to such indemnified person, except to the extent the Company shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure. Following such notification, the Company may elect in writing to assume the defense of such action or proceedings, and upon such election it will not be liable for any legal costs subsequently incurred by such member (other than reasonable costs of investigation) in connection therewith, unless (i) the Company has failed to provide counsel reasonably satisfactory to such member in a timely manner or (ii) counsel to such member reasonably determines that representation of any of such members by counsel for the Company would involve a conflict of interest or that any of such members have a separate and conflicting defense. In any litigation or proceeding, the Company will not be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all members of the Advisor Group claiming indemnification hereunder in any one jurisdiction, unless any of such members has a separate and conflicting defense with regard to such litigation or proceedings, as reasonably determined by the counsel for such member. The Company will not be liable for any settlement of any litigation or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Should the Company assume the defense of any action, the Company will not, without the Advisor Group’s prior written consent, settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate such action if such settlement, compromise, consent or termination imposes obligations on any member of the Advisor Group (through injunctive relief or otherwise) other than the payment of money for which such member will be fully indemnified by the Company hereunder. The Company will not permit any settlement, compromise, consent or termination to include a statement

as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an indemnified party, without such indemnified party’s prior written consent.

Prior to entering into any agreement or arrangement with respect to, or effecting, any merger, statutory exchange or other business combination or proposed sale or exchange, dividend or other distribution or liquidation of all or a substantial portion of its assets in one or a series of transactions or any significant recapitalization or reclassification of its outstanding securities that does not directly or indirectly provide for the assumption of the obligations of the Company set forth herein, the Company will promptly notify the Advisor in writing thereof and, if requested by the Advisor, will arrange in connection therewith alternative means of providing for the obligations of the Company set forth herein, including the assumption of such obligations by another party, insurance, surety bonds, or the creation of an escrow, in each case in an amount and on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Advisor.

The Company acknowledges that in connection with the services provided under the Advisory Agreement, the Advisor and its designees are acting as independent contractors and not in any other capacity with duties owing solely to the Company.

The provisions of this Schedule I will apply to the services provided to the Company by the Advisor and its designee (including related activities prior to the date hereof) and any modification thereof and will remain in full force and effect regardless of the completion or termination of the Advisory Agreement. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction herein is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable or against public policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions contained herein will remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.
