(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Dine Brands Parties, their respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees, advisors and other representatives and each person, if any, who controls any of the Dine Brands Parties within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which any of the Dine Brands Parties, their affiliates or any such director, officer, employee, advisor, representative, or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained (A) in any Free Writing Offering Document, Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (B) in any Blue Sky Application, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Free Writing Offering Document, Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Blue Sky Application any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information concerning such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Co-Issuers by or on behalf of that Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion therein, which information is limited to the information set forth in Section 8(e) . The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability that any Initial Purchaser may otherwise have to any of the Dine Brands Parties or any such director, officer, employee or controlling person.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8 , notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided , however , that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and; provided , further , that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8 . If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (which may be counsel to the indemnifying party). After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided , however , that the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by one of the indemnifying parties in connection with the defense of such action, (ii) the indemnifying parties shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party to have charge of the defense of such action within a

reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded, based on advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to it or them which are inconsistent with those available to the indemnifying parties, or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would present a conflict due to actual or potential differing interests between them, and in any such event described in clauses (i) – (iv) , the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be paid by the Dine Brands Parties in accordance with Section 8(a) above. No indemnifying party shall (x) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include a statement as to, or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party, or (y) be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with the consent of the indemnifying party or if there be a final judgment in favor of the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment, but only to the extent such indemnified party is entitled to indemnification in accordance with the terms hereof.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 shall for any reason be unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b) in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Dine Brands Parties, on the one hand, and each Initial Purchaser, on the other, from the offering of the Class A-2 Notes, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Dine Brands Parties, on the one hand, and each Initial Purchaser, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Dine Brands Parties, on the one hand, and each Initial Purchaser, on the other, with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Class A-2 Notes purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Dine Brands Parties, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by each Initial Purchaser with respect to the Class A-2 Notes purchased under this Agreement, on the other hand, bear to the total gross proceeds from the offering of the Class A-2 Notes under this Agreement as set forth on the cover page of the Offering Memorandum. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Dine Brands Parties, or the Initial Purchasers, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. For purposes of the preceding two sentences, the net proceeds deemed to be received by the Co-Issuers shall be deemed to be also for the benefit of the Dine Brands Parties, and information supplied by the Co-Issuers shall also be deemed to have been supplied by the Dine Brands Parties. The Dine Brands Parties and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 8(d), any documented legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d) , no Initial Purchaser shall be required

to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by it exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Any party entitled to contribution will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties, notify each party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they may have under this Section 8(d) or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Dine Brands Parties and the Initial Purchasers agree that the obligations of the Initial Purchasers under this clause (d) shall be several and not joint in proportion to the principal amount of the Class A-2 Notes set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I .

(e) Each Initial Purchaser confirms and the Dine Brands Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the statements with respect to the offering of the Class A-2 Notes by such Initial Purchaser set forth in paragraph 12 relating to overallotment, stabilization and similar activities in the sections entitled “ Plan of Distribution ” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and “ Plan of Distribution ” in the Offering Memorandum and (ii) the name of such Initial Purchaser set forth on the front cover page of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum constitutes the only information concerning such Initial Purchaser furnished in writing to the Dine Brands Parties by or on behalf of such Initial Purchaser specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Offering Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Blue Sky Application (the “ Initial Purchaser Information ”).

(a) If, on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser defaults in its obligations to purchase the Class A-2 Notes that it has agreed to purchase under this Agreement, the remaining non-defaulting Initial Purchaser may in its discretion arrange for the purchase of such Class A-2 Notes by the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or other persons satisfactory to the Co-Issuers on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Initial Purchaser, the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser does not arrange for the purchase of such Class A-2 Notes, then the Co-Issuers shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase such Class A-2 Notes on such terms. In the event that within the respective prescribed periods, the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser notifies the Co-Issuers that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Class A-2 Notes, or the Co-Issuers notifies the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Class A-2 Notes, either the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Co-Issuers may postpone the Closing Date for up to seven full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Co-Issuers or counsel for the Initial Purchasers may be necessary in the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Offering Memorandum or in any other document or arrangement, and the Co-Issuers agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Pricing Disclosure Package or the Offering Memorandum that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise, any party not listed in Schedule I hereto that, pursuant to this Section 9 , purchases Class A-2 Notes that a defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Class A-2 Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser by the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or another purchaser as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Class A-2 Notes that remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Class A-2 Notes, then the Co-Issuers shall have the right to require the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the principal amount of Class A-2 Notes that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder plus such Initial Purchaser’s

pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Class A-2 Notes that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Class A-2 Notes of such defaulting Initial Purchaser for which such arrangements have not been made; provided that no non-defaulting Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase more than 110% of the aggregate principal amount of Class A-2 Notes that it agreed to purchase on the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of Section 3 .

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Class A-2 Notes of a defaulting Initial Purchaser by the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or another purchaser as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Class A-2 Notes that remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Class A-2 Notes, or if the Co-Issuers shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Initial Purchaser. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9 shall be without liability on the part of the Co-Issuers, the Parent Companies, the Manager or the Guarantors, except that the Co-Issuers, the Parent Companies, the Manager and the Guarantors will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Sections 6 and 12 except with respect to the defaulting Initial Purchaser and except that the provisions of Section 8 shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the Dine Brands Parties or any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser for damages caused by its default.

10. Termination . The obligations of any Initial Purchaser hereunder may be terminated by such Initial Purchaser by notice given to and received by the Co-Issuers prior to delivery of and payment for the Class A-2 Notes if, prior to that time, in the reasonable judgment of the Initial Purchasers, any of the events described in Sections 7(t) , (v) or (dd) shall have occurred and be continuing or if such Initial Purchaser shall decline to purchase the Class A-2 Notes for any reason permitted under this Agreement.

11. Non-Assignability . None of the Dine Brands Parties may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement. No Initial Purchasers may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that the Initial Purchasers shall have the right to substitute any one of its affiliates as the purchaser of the Class A-2 Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder (a “ Substituting Initial Purchaser ”), by a written notice to the Co-Issuers, which notice shall be signed by both the Substituting Initial Purchaser and such affiliate, shall contain such affiliate’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such affiliate of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 3 hereof. Upon receipt of such notice, wherever the word “Initial Purchaser” is used in this Agreement (other than in this Section 11 ), such word shall be deemed to refer to such affiliate in lieu of the Substituting Initial Purchaser.
