On July 29, 2011, this Court entered an order [Docket No. 471] approving the

Initial Application (the Initial Deloitte Tax Retention Order). Specifically, the Initial Deloitte Tax Retention Order approved the retention of Deloitte Tax LLP (Deloitte Tax) to provide the Debtors with, among other services, income tax advisory services related to debt discharge and other tax issues arising in connection with the Debtors restructuring in these Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain engagement letter dated as of June 27, 2011 (the Initial Deloitte Tax Engagement Letter). 11. On August 17, 2011, the Debtors filed the Debtors Supplemental Application

Pursuant to Sections 327, 328, and 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 2014 and 2016, and Local Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1 for an Order Expanding the Scope of the Retention and Employment of Deloitte Tax LLP as the Debtors Tax Services Provider to Include Further Tax Services, Nunc Pro Tunc July 18, 2011 [Docket No. 755] (the Supplemental Deloitte Tax Application).

On September 14, 2011, the Court entered an order [Docket No. 961] approving

the Supplemental Deloitte Tax Application. 13. Deloitte Tax. Relief Requested 14. By this Application, the Debtors seek entry of an order, substantially in the form As set forth in the Corona Declaration, Deloitte & Touche is an affiliate of

attached hereto as Exhibit C, pursuant to sections 327(a), 328(a) and 330 of the Bankruptcy Code, Bankruptcy Rules 2014(a) and 2016, and Local Rules 2014-1 and 2016-1, authorizing the retention and employment of Deloitte & Touche to provide audit services, nunc pro tunc to October 10, 2011, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Engagement Letters. Basis for Relief Requested 15. Section 327 (a) of the Bankruptcy Code provides, in relevant part, as follows: Except as otherwise provided in this section, the trustee, with the courts approval, may employ one or more attorneys, accountants, appraisers, auctioneers, or other professional persons, that do not hold or represent an interest adverse to the estate, and that are disinterested persons, to represent or assist the trustee in carrying out the trustees duties under this title. 11 U.S.C. 327(a). 16. Section 328 (a) of the Bankruptcy Code provides, in relevant part, as follows: The trustee . . . with the courts approval, may employ or authorize the employment of a professional person under section 327 . . . of this title . . . on any reasonable terms and conditions of employment, including on a retainer, on an hourly basis, or on a contingent fee basis. Notwithstanding such terms and conditions, the court may allow compensation different from the compensation provide under such terms and conditions after the conclusion of such employment, if such terms and conditions prove to have been improvident in light of developments not capable of being anticipated at the time of the fixing of such terms and conditions.

01: 11585100.2 070242.1001

Id. at 328(a). 17. Bankruptcy Rule 2014 provides, in relevant part, as follows: An order approving the employment of attorneys, accountants, appraisers, auctioneers, agents, or other professionals pursuant to 327 . . . of the Code shall be made only on application of the trustee or committee. Fed. R. Bankr. P. 2014. 18. Deloitte & Touche is a well-known and experienced accounting firm. Deloitte &

Touche has been providing audit services to the Debtors for five years, and thus is familiar with the Debtors business. Now, the Debtors required experienced audit professionals of the caliber of Deloitte & Touche to provide the audit services set forth in the Engagement Letters. The Debtors believe that Deloitte & Touche is well qualified and able to advise and assist the Debtors in a cost-effective, efficient, and timely manner with respect to such services. Scope of Services 19. The Engagement Letters set forth the scope of the services to be provided to the

Debtors by Deloitte & Touche. The services to be provided (collectively, the Services) are expected to include the following, as agreed to by the Debtors and Deloitte & Touche: A. consistent with the terms and conditions of the applicable Engagement Letter, perform an audit of Debtor Perkins & Marie Callenders Inc.s (the Company) financial statements for the year ended December 26, 2010; and B. consistent with the terms and condition of the applicable Engagement Letter, perform an audit to express an opinion on the fairness of the presentation of the Companys balance sheet as of December 25, 2011 (Successor Company Balance Sheet), and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity and cash flows for the ten months ending October 30, 2011 (Predecessor Operations) and the two months ending December 25, 2011 (Successor Operations). Terms of Retention 20. Subject to the Courts approval, Deloitte & Touche has agreed to provide services

6
01: 11585100.2 070242.1001

for compensation at the amounts agreed upon between the parties pursuant to the Engagement Letters. As more fully described in the Engagement Letters, in consideration of the Services to be provided by Deloitte & Touche, the Debtors have agreed to pay Deloitte & Touche based upon the time spent by Deloitte & Touches professionals at the hourly rates provided for in the Engagement Letters for those professionals, subject to periodic adjustment of those rates. The agreed-upon-hourly billing rates are as follows: Title Partner, Principal or Director Senior Manager Manager Senior Staff 21. Rate $335 $280 $260 $210 $140

The Debtors will also reimburse Deloitte & Touche for all reasonable and

documented out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses that may be incurred in considering or responding to discovery requests or other requests for documents or information, or in participating as a witness or otherwise in any legal, regulatory or other proceeding, including but not limited to those relating to the Engagement Letters. 22. Pursuant to sections 330 and 331 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy Rules,

the Local Rules, and the United States Trustee Guidelines for Reviewing Applications for Compensation and Reimbursement of Expenses Filed Under 330 (the U.S. Trustee Guidelines), Deloitte & Touche will apply to the Court for the interim and final allowance of compensation and reimbursement of expenses in accordance with any order of this Court approving procedures for interim compensation and reimbursement of expenses, and shall file a final fee application as required by the Local Rules and any order of this Court.

The Engagement Letters are hereby modified to allow reasonable accommodation

for Court procedures to approve payment of invoices. Indemnification Provisions 24. Appendix B of each of the Engagement Letters, under the heading

Representation Letters, provides for an indemnity of Deloitte & Touche, its subcontractors and their respective personnel by the Debtors (together, the Indemnification Provision). Notwithstanding the Indemnification Provision, such indemnity shall be modified to the extent set forth below (the Modified Indemnification Provision): A. Deloitte & Touche shall not be entitled to indemnification, contribution or reimbursement pursuant to the Engagement Letters for services other than those described in the Engagement Letters, unless such services and indemnification therefore are approved by the Court; B. The Debtors shall have no obligation to indemnify Deloitte & Touche, or provide contribution or reimbursement to Deloitte & Touche, for any claim or expense that is either: (i) judicially determined (the determination having become final) to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Deloitte & Touche; (ii) for a contractual dispute in which the Debtors allege the breach of contractual obligations of Deloitte & Touche unless the Court determines that indemnification, contribution or reimbursement would be permissible pursuant to In re United Artists Theatre Co., 315 F.3d 217 (3d Cir. 2003); or (iii) settled prior to a judicial determination as to the exclusions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above, but determined by the Court, after notice and a hearing to be a claim or expense for which Deloitte & Touche should not receive indemnity, contribution or reimbursement under the terms of the Engagement Letters as modified by the order of this Court approving this Application; and C. If, before the earlier of (i) the entry of an order confirming a chapter 11 plan in these cases (that order having become a final order no longer subject to appeal), and (ii) the entry of an order closing these Chapter 11 Cases, Deloitte & Touche believes that it is entitled to the payment of any amounts by the Debtors on account of the Debtors indemnification, contribution and/or reimbursement obligations under the Engagement Letters (as modified by the order of this Court approving this Application), including without limitation the advancement of defense costs, Deloitte & Touche must file an application therefor in this Court, and the Debtors may not pay any such amounts to Deloitte & Touche 8
01: 11585100.2 070242.1001

before the entry of an order by this Court approving the payment. This subparagraph (c) is intended only to specify the period of time under which the Court shall have jurisdiction over any request for fees and expenses by Deloitte & Touche for indemnification, contribution or reimbursement, and not a provision limiting the duration of the Debtors obligation to indemnify Deloitte & Touche. All parties in interest shall retain the right to object to any demand by Deloitte & Touche for indemnification, contribution or reimbursement. 25. The Debtors believe that the Modified Indemnification Provision is customary

and reasonable for auditors, both out-of-court and in chapter 11 proceedings. See e.g., In re United Artists Theatre Co., 315 F.3d 217 (3d Cir. 2003) (authorizing the indemnification of Houlihan Lokey by the debtors); In re Joan & David Halpern, Inc., 248 B.R. 43 (Bankr. S.D.N.Y. 2000). The Modified Indemnification Provision is also similar to other

indemnification provisions that have been routinely approved by bankruptcy courts in the District, including this Court in the Initial Deloitte Tax Retention Order. Deloitte & Touches Disinterestedness 26. Deloitte & Touche provided prepetition services to the Debtors. Deloitte &

Touche received $430,000 from the Debtors in the ninety (90) days prior to the Petition Date. As of the Petition Date, Deloitte & Touche was not owed any amounts with respect to invoices issued by Deloitte & Touche prior to the Petition Date. 27. As set forth in the Initial Deloitte Tax Application and the Corona Declaration,

Deloitte Tax, an affiliate of Deloitte & Touche, provided prepetition services to the Debtors. Deloitte Tax received $40,000 from the Debtors in the ninety (90) days prior to the Petition Date. As of the Petition Date, Deloitte Tax was owed approximately $125,000 with respect to invoices issued by Deloitte Tax prior to the Petition Date. Deloitte Tax has previously agreed not to seek or take any recovery with respect to such amount. 28. Also, as further set forth in the Initial Deloitte Tax Application and the Corona

9
01: 11585100.2 070242.1001

Declaration, in the past Deloitte Consulting LLP, an affiliate of Deloitte Tax and Deloitte & Touche, incorrectly issued an invoice to the Debtors in the amount of approximately $250,000. This invoice has been cancelled. 29. If any new facts or relationships are discovered, the Debtors have been advised by

Deloitte & Touche that Deloitte & Touche will supplement their disclosures to the Court. Notice 30. The Debtors will serve notice of this Application upon: (i) the U.S. Trustee; (ii)

counsel to the Committee; (iii) counsel to the agent for the Debtors pre-petition Credit Facility and post-petition debtor-in-possession financing facility; (iv) counsel to the indenture trustee for the Senior Secured Notes; (v) counsel to the indenture trustee for the Senior Notes; (vi) counsel to the Restructuring Support Parties; and (vii) all parties that, as of the filing of this Application, have requested notice in these Chapter 11 Cases pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 2002. In light of the nature of the relief requested, the Debtors submit that no other or further notice is necessary. Remainder of page intentionally left blank
