 &lt;b&gt;Basis of Presentation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 We have prepared the accompanying interim unaudited condensed
 consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and
 regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
 &amp;#x201C;SEC&amp;#x201D;). Accordingly, they do not include all of the
 information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
 principles in the United States (&amp;#x201C;GAAP&amp;#x201D;) for complete
 financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments considered
 necessary for the fair presentation of our results of operations,
 financial position, and cash flows for the periods presented have
 been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of
 operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
 the results to be expected for a full year. These financial
 statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
 statements and notes thereto for the year ended December&amp;#xA0;25,
 2013, included in our prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to
 Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
 &amp;#x201C;Securities Act&amp;#x201D;) on July&amp;#xA0;28, 2014.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We use a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Wednesday of
 the calendar year. In a 52-week fiscal year, each quarter includes
 13 weeks of operations; in a 53-week fiscal year, the first, second
 and third quarters each include 13 weeks of operations and the
 fourth quarter includes 14 weeks of operations. Every six or seven
 years a 53-week fiscal year occurs. Fiscal 2013, which was a
 52-week year, ended on December&amp;#xA0;25, 2013. Fiscal 2014, which
 is a 53-week year, will end on December&amp;#xA0;31, 2014. Because
 fiscal 2014 is a 53-week year, both revenues and expenses, and
 other financial and operational figures, may be on an elevated
 scale compared with 52-week periods both before and after.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 On July&amp;#xA0;14, 2014, we amended our certificate of incorporation
 to increase our authorized share count to 200,000,000 shares of
 common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and split our stock
 8.56381:1. On July&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, we amended and restated our
 certificate of incorporation to, among other things, increase our
 authorized share count to 300,000,000 shares of stock, including
 200,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of
 preferred stock, each par value $0.01 per share. On July&amp;#xA0;30,
 2014, we completed our initial public offering of 8,214,286 shares
 of common stock at a price to the public of $15.00 per share (the
 &amp;#x201C;IPO&amp;#x201D;), including 1,071,429 shares sold to the
 underwriters pursuant to their option to purchase additional
 shares. After underwriting discounts, commissions, and fees and
 expenses of IPO offering and distribution, as set forth in our
 registration statement for the IPO on&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 Form S-1, we received net IPO proceeds of approximately $112.3
 million. We used these proceeds primarily to repay in whole a $100
 million second lien term loan (the &amp;#x201C;Second Lien Term
 Loan&amp;#x201D;). All share and per-share data herein have been
 adjusted to reflect the 8.56381 for 1 common stock split effected
 on July&amp;#xA0;14, 2014 as though it had occurred prior to the
 earliest data presented.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
 include the accounts of Holdings and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
 All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
 consolidation.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Legal Matters&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 Around February&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, a former employee filed a class
 action in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of
 Orange, against EPL on behalf of all putative class members (all
 hourly employees from 2010 to the present) alleging certain
 violations of California labor laws, including failure to pay
 overtime compensation, failure to provide meal periods and rest
 breaks, and failure to provide itemized wage statements. The
 putative lead plaintiff&amp;#x2019;s requested remedies included
 compensatory and punitive damages, injunctive relief, disgorgement
 of profits, and reasonable attorneys&amp;#x2019; fees and costs. No
 specific amount of damages sought was specified in the complaint.
 We were served with the complaint on March&amp;#xA0;3, 2014. While we
 intend to vigorously defend against this action, including its
 class certification, its ultimate outcome is presently not
 determinable, as it is in a preliminary phase. Thus, we cannot
 determine the likelihood of an adverse judgment nor a likely range
 of damages, if any. A settlement or adverse judgment could have a
 material adverse impact.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 We are involved in various claims and legal actions that arise in
 the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the
 ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse
 effect on our financial position, results of operations, liquidity,
 or capital resources. A significant increase in the number of
 claims or an increase in amounts payable under successful claims
 could materially adversely affect our business, financial
 condition, results of operations or cash flows.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Purchasing Commitments&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 We have long-term beverage supply agreements with certain major
 beverage vendors. Pursuant to the terms of these arrangements,
 marketing rebates are provided to us and our franchisees from
 beverage vendors based upon dollar volumes of purchases
 system-wide, which vary with demand for and the price of syrup. Our
 contracts extend so far as 2017, and our estimated obligations
 under them total $19.9 million.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 We have two supplier contracts for chicken that terminate in
 December 2014 and January 2015. We entered into these agreements in
 December 2013 at costs comparable to those of the contracts that
 preceded them. At September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, our estimated
 obligations under them totaled $7.6 million.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Contingent Lease Obligations&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 We are contingently liable for two leases that we assigned to
 franchisees. The latest lease expires in 2015. At
 September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, our maximum exposure was $52,000, or
 $45,000, if discounted at our estimated pre-tax cost of debt. In
 the event of a franchisee default, we could cross-default the
 franchisee under its franchise agreement. We believe that
 cross-default provisions reduce our risk of payments, and we have
 not recorded any liability in our condensed consolidated financial
 statements related to these liabilities.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Employment Agreements&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 We have at-will employment agreements with four of our officers.
 These agreements provide for minimum salary levels, possible annual
 adjustments for cost-of-living changes, and incentive bonuses
 payable under certain conditions.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Indemnification Agreements&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our
 current directors and executive officers. These agreements require
 us to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware
 law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service
 to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any
 proceeding against them where they could be indemnified. We also
 intend to enter into indemnification agreements with our future
 directors and executive officers.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 On October&amp;#xA0;11, 2013, we refinanced our debt (the &amp;#x201C;2013
 Refinancing&amp;#x201D;), entering into (i)&amp;#xA0;the First Lien Credit
 Agreement, including a $190 million senior secured term loan (the
 &amp;#x201C;First Lien Term Loan&amp;#x201D;) and the Revolver, each maturing
 in October 2018, and (ii)&amp;#xA0;a new second lien credit agreement
 (the &amp;#x201C;Second Lien Credit Agreement&amp;#x201D;), including the
 Second Lien Term Loan. The proceeds received from the term loans
 were used to pay off our prior credit agreements, including our
 senior secured first lien credit facility due July 2017 and our 17%
 second priority senior secured notes due January 2018.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 Loans under the First Lien Credit Agreement bear interest, at
 EPL&amp;#x2019;s option, at LIBOR or an Alternate Base Rate, plus an
 applicable margin of 4.25% with respect to LIBOR and 3.25% with
 respect to the Alternate Base Rate, with a 1.00% floor with respect
 to LIBOR. The First Lien Term Loan was issued at a discount of
 $950,000, and this discount is being accreted over the term of the
 loan, using the effective interest method. The unamortized discount
 at September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, is $768,000. The First Lien Term Loan
 requires quarterly principal payments of 0.25%, commencing on
 March&amp;#xA0;26, 2014. The First Lien Term Loan and the Revolver are
 secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets
 of EPL and of EPL Intermediate, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Intermediate&amp;#x201D;),
 EPL&amp;#x2019;s direct parent.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 The Revolver provides a $15 million revolving line of credit. At
 September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, $7.3 million in letters of credit were
 outstanding, and $7.7 million was available to borrow.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 Loans under the Second Lien Credit Agreement bore interest, at
 EPL&amp;#x2019;s option, at LIBOR or an Alternate Base Rate, plus an
 applicable margin of 8.50% with respect to LIBOR and 7.50% with
 respect to the Alternate Base Rate, with a 1.00% floor with respect
 to LIBOR. The Second Lien Term Loan was issued at a discount of
 $1.0 million, and this discount was accreted over the term of the
 loan, using the effective interest method. Following our IPO, we
 fully repaid the Second Lien Term Loan. In conjunction with the
 repayment of the Second Lien Term Loan, we incurred an
 extinguishment of debt charge of $5.1 million, consisting of&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 $1.5 million in call premium, $2.7 million related to the write-off
 of remaining unamortized deferred finance costs, and $0.9 million
 relating to the write-off of the unamortized discount.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 The First Lien Credit Agreement contains a number of negative and
 financial covenants, including, among others, the following (all
 subject to certain exceptions): a maximum total leverage ratio
 covenant, a minimum interest coverage ratio covenant, and
 limitations on indebtedness, liens, investments, asset sales,
 mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, restricted
 payments, and negative pledges. The First Lien Credit Agreement
 also contains certain customary affirmative covenants and events of
 default. At September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, we were in compliance with all
 covenants.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;8. NET INCOME PER SHARE&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 Basic net income per share is calculated using the weighted-average
 number of shares of common stock outstanding during the thirteen
 and thirty-nine weeks ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and
 September&amp;#xA0;25, 2013. Diluted net income per share is calculated
 using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock
 outstanding and potentially dilutive during the period, using the
 treasury stock method.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 12px"&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;Goodwill and Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 Our indefinite lived intangible assets consist of trademarks.
 Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of net
 identified assets acquired in business combinations accounted for
 under the purchase method. We do not amortize our goodwill and
 indefinite lived intangible assets.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 Upon the sale of a restaurant, we decrement goodwill. The amount of
 goodwill that we include in the cost basis of the asset sold is
 determined based on the relative fair value of the reporting unit
 disposed of as a percentage of the fair value of the reporting unit
 retained.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We perform annual impairment tests for goodwill during the fourth
 fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if impairment
 indicators arise.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We review goodwill for impairment utilizing either a qualitative
 assessment or a two-step process. If we decide that it is
 appropriate to perform a qualitative assessment and conclude that
 the fair value of a reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its
 carrying value, no further evaluation is necessary. If we perform
 the two-step process, the first step of the goodwill impairment
 test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair
 value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including
 goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its
 carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not
 impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary.
 If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value,
 the second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment by
 comparing the carrying amount of the goodwill to a determination of
 the implied value of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of
 goodwill is greater than the implied value, an impairment charge is
 recognized for the difference.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We perform annual impairment tests for indefinite lived intangible
 assets during the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more
 frequently if impairment indicators arise. An impairment test
 consists of either a qualitative assessment or a comparison of the
 fair value of an intangible asset with its carrying amount. The
 excess of the carrying amount of an intangible asset over its fair
 value is its impairment loss.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We did not identify any indicators of potential impairment during
 the thirty-nine weeks ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and therefore
 did not perform any impairment review.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;Overview&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 El Pollo Loco Holdings, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;Holdings&amp;#x201D;) is a Delaware
 corporation headquartered in Costa Mesa, California. Holdings and
 its direct and indirect subsidiaries are collectively known as
 &amp;#x201C;we,&amp;#x201D; &amp;#x201C;us&amp;#x201D; or the &amp;#x201C;Company.&amp;#x201D;
 Our activities are conducted principally through our indirect
 wholly-owned subsidiary, El Pollo Loco, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;EPL&amp;#x201D;),
 which develops, franchises, licenses, and operates quick-service
 restaurants under the name El Pollo Loco&lt;sup style="FONT-SIZE: 85%; VERTICAL-ALIGN: top"&gt;&amp;#xAE;&lt;/sup&gt; and operates
 under one business segment. At September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, we operated
 166 and franchised 239 El Pollo Loco restaurants.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Basis of Presentation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 We have prepared the accompanying interim unaudited condensed
 consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and
 regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
 &amp;#x201C;SEC&amp;#x201D;). Accordingly, they do not include all of the
 information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
 principles in the United States (&amp;#x201C;GAAP&amp;#x201D;) for complete
 financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments considered
 necessary for the fair presentation of our results of operations,
 financial position, and cash flows for the periods presented have
 been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of
 operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
 the results to be expected for a full year. These financial
 statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
 statements and notes thereto for the year ended December&amp;#xA0;25,
 2013, included in our prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to
 Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
 &amp;#x201C;Securities Act&amp;#x201D;) on July&amp;#xA0;28, 2014.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We use a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Wednesday of
 the calendar year. In a 52-week fiscal year, each quarter includes
 13 weeks of operations; in a 53-week fiscal year, the first, second
 and third quarters each include 13 weeks of operations and the
 fourth quarter includes 14 weeks of operations. Every six or seven
 years a 53-week fiscal year occurs. Fiscal 2013, which was a
 52-week year, ended on December&amp;#xA0;25, 2013. Fiscal 2014, which
 is a 53-week year, will end on December&amp;#xA0;31, 2014. Because
 fiscal 2014 is a 53-week year, both revenues and expenses, and
 other financial and operational figures, may be on an elevated
 scale compared with 52-week periods both before and after.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 On July&amp;#xA0;14, 2014, we amended our certificate of incorporation
 to increase our authorized share count to 200,000,000 shares of
 common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and split our stock
 8.56381:1. On July&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, we amended and restated our
 certificate of incorporation to, among other things, increase our
 authorized share count to 300,000,000 shares of stock, including
 200,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of
 preferred stock, each par value $0.01 per share. On July&amp;#xA0;30,
 2014, we completed our initial public offering of 8,214,286 shares
 of common stock at a price to the public of $15.00 per share (the
 &amp;#x201C;IPO&amp;#x201D;), including 1,071,429 shares sold to the
 underwriters pursuant to their option to purchase additional
 shares. After underwriting discounts, commissions, and fees and
 expenses of IPO offering and distribution, as set forth in our
 registration statement for the IPO on&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 Form S-1, we received net IPO proceeds of approximately $112.3
 million. We used these proceeds primarily to repay in whole a $100
 million second lien term loan (the &amp;#x201C;Second Lien Term
 Loan&amp;#x201D;). All share and per-share data herein have been
 adjusted to reflect the 8.56381 for 1 common stock split effected
 on July&amp;#xA0;14, 2014 as though it had occurred prior to the
 earliest data presented.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
 include the accounts of Holdings and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
 All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
 consolidation.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Use of Estimates&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 The preparation of financial statements in conformance with GAAP
 requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect
 (i)&amp;#xA0;the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and
 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of
 the financial statements, and (ii)&amp;#xA0;revenue and expenses during
 the period reported. Actual results could materially differ from
 those estimates. Our significant estimates include estimates for
 (i)&amp;#xA0;impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and plant and
 equipment, (ii)&amp;#xA0;insurance reserves, (iii)&amp;#xA0;lease
 termination liabilities, (iv)&amp;#xA0;stock-based compensation, and
 (v)&amp;#xA0;income tax valuation allowances.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 18px"&gt;
 &amp;#xA0;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 0pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Reclassifications&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 Certain comparative prior year amounts in the condensed
 consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been
 reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These
 reclassifications have no effect on previously-reported net
 income.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Liquidity&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 Our principal liquidity requirements are to service our debt and to
 meet capital expenditure needs. At September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, our
 total debt was $188.7 million. Our ability to make payments on our
 indebtedness and to fund planned capital expenditures depends on
 available cash and on our ability to generate adequate cash flows
 in the future, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general
 economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and
 other factors that are beyond our control. Based on current
 operations, we believe that our cash flow from operations,
 available cash of $41.8 million at September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and
 available borrowings under our $15 million senior secured revolving
 credit facility (the &amp;#x201C;Revolver&amp;#x201D;) (which availability
 was approximately $7.7 million at September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014) will be
 adequate to meet our liquidity needs for the next 12 months.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Concentration of Risk&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 We have two suppliers for which amounts due at September&amp;#xA0;24,
 2014, and December&amp;#xA0;25, 2013, totaled 43% and 45% and 11% and
 11%, respectively, of our accounts payable. Purchases from the same
 suppliers accounted for the majority of our purchases for the
 periods ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and September&amp;#xA0;25, 2013.
 Company-operated and franchised restaurants in the greater Los
 Angeles area generated, in the aggregate, approximately 79% and 80%
 of revenue for the thirteen weeks ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014,
 and September&amp;#xA0;25, 2013 respectively, and approximately 80% for
 the thirty-nine weeks ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and
 September&amp;#xA0;25, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;Goodwill and Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 Our indefinite lived intangible assets consist of trademarks.
 Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of net
 identified assets acquired in business combinations accounted for
 under the purchase method. We do not amortize our goodwill and
 indefinite lived intangible assets.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 Upon the sale of a restaurant, we decrement goodwill. The amount of
 goodwill that we include in the cost basis of the asset sold is
 determined based on the relative fair value of the reporting unit
 disposed of as a percentage of the fair value of the reporting unit
 retained.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We perform annual impairment tests for goodwill during the fourth
 fiscal quarter of each year, or more frequently if impairment
 indicators arise.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We review goodwill for impairment utilizing either a qualitative
 assessment or a two-step process. If we decide that it is
 appropriate to perform a qualitative assessment and conclude that
 the fair value of a reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its
 carrying value, no further evaluation is necessary. If we perform
 the two-step process, the first step of the goodwill impairment
 test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair
 value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including
 goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its
 carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not
 impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary.
 If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value,
 the second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment by
 comparing the carrying amount of the goodwill to a determination of
 the implied value of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of
 goodwill is greater than the implied value, an impairment charge is
 recognized for the difference.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We perform annual impairment tests for indefinite lived intangible
 assets during the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, or more
 frequently if impairment indicators arise. An impairment test
 consists of either a qualitative assessment or a comparison of the
 fair value of an intangible asset with its carrying amount. The
 excess of the carrying amount of an intangible asset over its fair
 value is its impairment loss.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We did not identify any indicators of potential impairment during
 the thirty-nine weeks ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and therefore
 did not perform any impairment review.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Gain on Sale of Restaurants&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 On September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, we completed an agreement to sell six
 company-operated restaurants in the greater San Antonio area to AA
 Pollo, Inc., resulting in cash proceeds of $5.4 million. Goodwill
 was decremented by $650,000, based on a calculation of the fair
 value of the restaurants sold as a percentage of the relative fair
 value of the remainder of the reporting units retained. We
 recognized a net gain of $2.7 million on this transaction, which is
 recorded as a gain on sale of restaurants in the accompanying
 statement of operations. These six restaurants will now be
 franchised. In addition, in connection with the sale, AA Pollo,
 Inc., entered into an exclusive development agreement with us to
 develop and open eight restaurants in the greater San Antonio area.
 We have also agreed to an additional exclusive franchise
 development agreement with AA Pollo, Inc., for the development of
 twelve restaurants in the Houston area.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;Income Taxes&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 Provision for income taxes, income taxes payable, and deferred
 income taxes are determined using the asset and liability method.
 Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on
 temporary differences between the financial carrying amounts and
 the tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in
 effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected
 to reverse. On a periodic basis, we assess the probability that our
 net deferred tax assets, if any, will be recovered. If, after
 evaluating all of the positive and negative evidence, we conclude
 that it is more likely than not that some or all of our net
 deferred tax assets will not be recovered, we provide for a
 valuation allowance by charging to tax expense to reserve the
 portion of deferred tax assets that we do not expect to be
 realized. At December&amp;#xA0;25, 2013, we maintained a full valuation
 allowance against our deferred tax assets. After evaluating all of
 the positive and negative evidence, including our continued
 profitability and the reduction in interest expense resulting from
 the 2013 Refinancing (as defined below), our completed initial
 public offering and the resultant payoff of the Second Lien Term
 Loan, we concluded that it is more likely than not that our net
 deferred tax assets will be recovered. As a result, during the
 quarter ending September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, we released our valuation
 allowance of approximately $65 million. In addition, during the
 quarter, we applied for various tax credits that resulted in $5.4
 million of additional deferred tax assets and tax benefits.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We review our filing positions for all open tax years in all U.S.
 federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 When there are uncertainties related to potential income tax
 benefits, in order to qualify for recognition, the position we take
 has to have at least a &amp;#x201C;more likely than not&amp;#x201D; chance of
 being sustained (based on the position&amp;#x2019;s technical merits)
 upon challenge by the respective authorities. The term &amp;#x201C;more
 likely than not&amp;#x201D; means a likelihood of more than 50 percent.
 Otherwise, we may not recognize any of the potential tax benefit
 associated with the position. We recognize a benefit for a tax
 position that meets the &amp;#x201C;more likely than not&amp;#x201D;
 criterion at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than
 50 percent likely of being realized upon its effective resolution.
 Unrecognized tax benefits involve our judgment regarding the
 likelihood of the benefit being sustained. The final resolution of
 uncertain tax positions could result in adjustments to recorded
 amounts and may affect our results of operations, financial
 position, and cash flows.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters
 in income tax expense. We had no accrual for interest or penalties
 at September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, or at December&amp;#xA0;25, 2013, and did
 not recognize interest or penalties during the thirteen and
 thirty-nine weeks ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and
 September&amp;#xA0;25, 2013, respectively, since we had no material
 unrecognized tax benefits. We do not anticipate material changes in
 our amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve
 months.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 On July&amp;#xA0;30, 2014, we entered into an Income Tax Receivable
 Agreement (the &amp;#x201C;TRA&amp;#x201D;). The TRA calls for us to pay to
 our pre-IPO stockholders 85% of the savings in cash that we realize
 in our taxes as a result of utilizing our net operating losses and
 other tax attributes attributable to preceding periods. In
 connection with the TRA, we have amended our first lien credit
 agreement (the &amp;#x201C;First Lien Credit Agreement&amp;#x201D;) to permit
 dividend payments to us by our subsidiaries in amounts up to $11
 million per fiscal year, not to exceed $33 million in the
 aggregate, while the First Lien Credit Agreement is outstanding.
 During the quarter, we incurred a charge of approximately $40
 million relating to the present value of our total expected TRA
 payments.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 On July&amp;#xA0;11, 2014, EPL and Trimaran Pollo Partners, L.L.C.
 (&amp;#x201C;LLC&amp;#x201D;) entered into a Franchise Development Option
 Agreement relating to development of our restaurants in the New
 York&amp;#x2013;Newark, NY&amp;#x2013;NJ&amp;#x2013;CT&amp;#x2013;PA Combined
 Statistical Area (the &amp;#x201C;Territory&amp;#x201D;). EPL granted LLC the
 exclusive option to develop and open fifteen restaurants in the
 Territory over five years (the &amp;#x201C;Initial Option&amp;#x201D;), and,
 provided that the Initial Option is exercised, the exclusive option
 to develop and open up to an additional one hundred restaurants in
 the Territory over ten years. The Franchise Development Option
 Agreement terminates (i)&amp;#xA0;ten years after execution, or
 (ii)&amp;#xA0;if the Initial Option is exercised, five years after that
 exercise. LLC may only exercise the Initial Option if EPL first
 determines to begin development of company-operated restaurants in
 the Territory or support the development of the Territory. We have
 no current intention to begin development in the Territory.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 The preparation of financial statements in conformance with GAAP
 requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect
 (i)&amp;#xA0;the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and
 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of
 the financial statements, and (ii)&amp;#xA0;revenue and expenses during
 the period reported. Actual results could materially differ from
 those estimates. Our significant estimates include estimates for
 (i)&amp;#xA0;impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and plant and
 equipment, (ii)&amp;#xA0;insurance reserves, (iii)&amp;#xA0;lease
 termination liabilities, (iv)&amp;#xA0;stock-based compensation, and
 (v)&amp;#xA0;income tax valuation allowances.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 At September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, options to purchase 3,554,926 shares of
 common stock were outstanding, including 2,161,184 vested and
 1,393,742 unvested. Unvested options vest over time, or upon our
 achieving annual financial goals. However, upon a change in
 control, the board may accelerate vesting. At September&amp;#xA0;24,
 2014, 2,062,442 premium options remained outstanding. For the
 thirty-nine weeks ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, there was one
 exercise of stock options for 739 shares. In connection with the
 completion of our IPO, we granted options to purchase 223,183
 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $15.00, the
 IPO price and fair market value as of the date of grant, to
 selected employees who are not our executive officers. We expect to
 incur approximately $1.3 million of stock-based compensation
 expense in connection with these grants, which we will expense over
 four years.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 In addition, in connection with the completion of our IPO, we
 granted two of our directors restricted grants for 3,333 shares
 each, equivalent to $50,000 divided by our public offering price.
 These grants vest based on continued service over three years.
 Based on our share price when the grants were consummated, we
 expect to incur approximately $330,000 of stock-based compensation
 expense as the grants vest.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt"&gt;
 At September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, we had total unrecognized compensation
 expense of $2.3 million, related to unvested stock options and
 restricted shares, which we expect to recognize over a
 weighted-average period of 1.2 years.&lt;/p&gt;

 was $1.7 million for both periods. For the thirteen weeks ended
 September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, capital expenditures totaled $8.6 million,
 including $2.2 million for restaurant remodeling, $5.0 million for
 new restaurant expenditures, and $1.4 million for other corporate
 capital requirements. For the thirty-nine weeks ended

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 We have two suppliers for which amounts due at September&amp;#xA0;24,
 2014, and December&amp;#xA0;25, 2013, totaled 43% and 45% and 11% and
 11%, respectively, of our accounts payable. Purchases from the same
 suppliers accounted for the majority of our purchases for the
 periods ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and September&amp;#xA0;25, 2013.
 Company-operated and franchised restaurants in the greater Los
 Angeles area generated, in the aggregate, approximately 79% and 80%
 of revenue for the thirteen weeks ended September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014,
 and September&amp;#xA0;25, 2013 respectively, and approximately 80% for

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 Our principal liquidity requirements are to service our debt and to
 meet capital expenditure needs. At September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, our
 total debt was $188.7 million. Our ability to make payments on our
 indebtedness and to fund planned capital expenditures depends on
 available cash and on our ability to generate adequate cash flows
 in the future, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general
 economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and
 other factors that are beyond our control. Based on current
 operations, we believe that our cash flow from operations,
 available cash of $41.8 million at September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, and
 available borrowings under our $15 million senior secured revolving
 credit facility (the &amp;#x201C;Revolver&amp;#x201D;) (which availability
 was approximately $7.7 million at September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014) will be
 adequate to meet our liquidity needs for the next 12 months.&lt;/p&gt;

 On September&amp;#xA0;24, 2014, we completed an agreement to sell six
 company-operated restaurants in the greater San Antonio area to AA
 Pollo, Inc., resulting in cash proceeds of $5.4 million. Goodwill
 was decremented by $650,000, based on a calculation of the fair
 value of the restaurants sold as a percentage of the relative fair
 value of the remainder of the reporting units retained. We
 recognized a net gain of $2.7 million on this transaction, which is
 recorded as a gain on sale of restaurants in the accompanying
 statement of operations. These six restaurants will now be
 franchised. In addition, in connection with the sale, AA Pollo,
 Inc., entered into an exclusive development agreement with us to
 develop and open eight restaurants in the greater San Antonio area.
 We have also agreed to an additional exclusive franchise
 development agreement with AA Pollo, Inc., for the development of
 twelve restaurants in the Houston area.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt"&gt;
 On July&amp;#xA0;11, 2014, EPL and Trimaran Pollo Partners, L.L.C.
 (&amp;#x201C;LLC&amp;#x201D;) entered into a Franchise Development Option
 Agreement relating to development of our restaurants in the New
 York&amp;#x2013;Newark, NY&amp;#x2013;NJ&amp;#x2013;CT&amp;#x2013;PA Combined
 Statistical Area (the &amp;#x201C;Territory&amp;#x201D;). EPL granted LLC the
 exclusive option to develop and open fifteen restaurants in the
 Territory over five years (the &amp;#x201C;Initial Option&amp;#x201D;), and,
 provided that the Initial Option is exercised, the exclusive option
 to develop and open up to an additional one hundred restaurants in
 the Territory over ten years. The Franchise Development Option
 Agreement terminates (i)&amp;#xA0;ten years after execution, or
 (ii)&amp;#xA0;if the Initial Option is exercised, five years after that
 exercise. LLC may only exercise the Initial Option if EPL first
 determines to begin development of company-operated restaurants in
 the Territory or support the development of the Territory. We have
 no current intention to begin development in the Territory.&lt;/p&gt;
