On January 25, 2011, Morton’s Restaurant Group, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into employment agreements, effective January 25, 2011, with Christopher J. Artinian, its Chief Executive Officer and President (the “Artinian Employment Agreement”), and with Ronald M. DiNella, its Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer (the “DiNella Employment Agreement” and together with the Artinian Employment Agreement, the “Employment Agreements”). The summary descriptions of the Employment Agreements that follows are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Employment Agreements attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2.

Each of the Employment Agreements is for a term of two years commencing on January 25, 2011 and ending at midnight on December 31, 2012; provided, that each of the Employment Agreements automatically renews for successive one-year periods beginning on January 1, 2013, unless notice of intent not to renew is provided by the Company or the executive. During the term, Mr. Artinian will receive an annual base salary of not less than $370,000, and will have an annual target bonus of 65% of his base salary. During the term, Mr. DiNella will receive an annual base salary of not less than $300,000, and will have an annual target bonus of 60% of his base salary. During the term, Mr. Artinian and Mr. DiNella are each eligible to participate in all employee benefit plans which may be generally available to other senior executives and each executive shall receive an automobile allowance for business purposes.

If either of Mr. Artinian or Mr. DiNella (i) is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined in their respective Employment Agreements), (ii) terminates his employment without Good Reason (as defined in their respective Employment Agreements), (iii) is terminated due to his respective death or Disability (as defined in their respective Employment Agreements), or either’s employment terminates due to nonrenewal of the respective Employment Agreement, the terminated employee shall be entitled to any accrued but unpaid base salary and expenses (“Accrued Benefits”). If either of Mr. Artinian or Mr. DiNella (i) is terminated by the Company without Cause or (ii) terminates his employment for Good Reason, the terminated employee shall each be entitled to any Accrued Benefits and subject to executing a release in favor of the Company, the terminated employee shall also be entitled to (i) continued payment of his base salary for 24 months, payable over a 24 month period in equal installments, (ii) the amount of his previous year’s bonus multiplied by 2, payable over 24 months in equal installments, (iii) a monthly payment equal to the cost of continuation of group health coverage for 18 months and (iv) outplacement services for 2 years, not to exceed $25,000 in the aggregate.

Pursuant to the Employment Agreements, Mr. Artinian and Mr. DiNella are each subject to confidentiality, cooperation and non-disparagement provisions as well as a non-solicitation or hire and non-competition provision during their employment and for a period of 24 months thereafter (the non-competition only applies following a termination of employment if the termination occurs prior to a change in control of the Company). The Employment Agreements provide that in the event that any payments or benefits provided to Mr. Artinian or Mr. DiNella constitute “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, such payments will be reduced to an amount that may be provided to each executive without resulting in any portion of such parachute payments being subject to an excise tax.
