V ISION, M ISSION AND PHILOSOPHYThe FAVE vision is to change the way people eat. With a simple core philosophy of
good food that just happens to be meat-free, the company strives to achieve the
mission to bring mass-market accessibility and acceptance to the genre of quick,wholesome and delicious meat-free cuisine.
OBJECTIVES: SHORT TERM1. Secure private investor financing in the amount of $1,000,000 to open a flagship
fast casual food service outlet target opening date 1st quarter 2013
2. Bring the flagship restaurant outlet to profitability within five months, producing
increased month-over-month returns and margins to prove financial model foradditional outlets
3. Establish short-term management succession plan for first phase expansion
(three restaurants)
4. Establish corporate guidelines for opening standards, operational procedures,
brand standards, and product specifications. Book to be established to address
unforeseen opportunities that arise for quicker than anticipated growth
OBJECTIVES: LONG TERM1. Secure three additional rounds of private investment totaling $2,850,000 to
finance the growth of 17 additional restaurants over five years
2. Reconfigure supply chain and establish national partners for distribution of
proprietary products
3. Prove multi-market viability including stores in the Southern California area
and/or select locations on the East Coast of the US
KEYS TO SUCCESSFAVE has an internal core set of drivers that make it unique. The following list
represents the controllable keys to success of the concept:
The Food: a dynamic mix of taste-first proprietary food designed to be premium
to competitors in the local fast casual category. Quality and taste has the ability
to covert omnivores and impress non-vegetarians

The Service: a strategically designed environment and set of offerings to
effectively deliver key service periods of lunch and dinner
The Message: a sunny, summery communication platform that strategically
avoids the typically negative vegetarian baggage including animal rights and
the environment
The Theatre: a natural, handcrafted soda program set to become a beverage
barista experience
The Supply: a partner network of distributors, manufacturers and consultants
ready to deliver an impossible-to-copy menu of great food that just happens
to be meat-free
The Finances: strict and rigorous cost controls and financial management
The Management: strong industry experience, complimentary skill sets, large
social networks and passion to drive the concept long-term
FAVE relies on an external set of opportunity drivers that provide a platform for
significant growth. The following list represents the market forces key to success of the
concept:
Health: the individual need to combat increasingly sedentary lifestyles with a
healthy, low cholesterol, low fat, high vegetable diet
Category: explosive growth in the fast casual restaurant market in North America
Trend: media, television, and pop culture support for increasing vegetable
consumption, the vegetarian shift and the vegan movement
Politics: continued pressure from national, provincial and municipal government
organizations to recommend, develop and fund healthier lifestyle options to offset
ballooning health care costs
COMPANY LOCATIONS AND FACILITIESThe first three FAVE restaurants are targeted to open within the urban centre of
Vancouver, British Columbia. The targeted neighbourhoods include Kitsilano (4th
Avenue), the North East Robson Street Corridor, South Granville, South Cambie
Corridor, Yaletown and Gastown.
International Expansion
One will note the business model of FAVE has been designed to be scalable. From the
vision to the supply chain, from the product offering to the brand, a mass-market, cross-
cultural direction has been deliberately planned. Noting the successes of contemporary
meat-free fast casual competitors in localized markets around the world, including
Singapore, Los Angeles, Boston, and Toronto, FAVE has an increased potential for US
and international growth.

As vegetarianism is particularly strong in a number of countries, FAVE is looking toward
the horizon to target the following countries for international expansion, after the US
market: UK, The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Australia and India. The Indian market
alone is estimated to have more than 400,000,000 people who do not eat meat.
COMPANY GROWTH STRATEGYFirst Phase Growth and Financing Strategy
From the moment the first FAVE opens its doors, three strategic focal points for growth
will be delegated to committed talent within the organization. The operational integrity
of FAVE will be handed to Jeff Osborne, the financial integrityof FAVE will be handed
to Joseph Cooke and the emotional integrityof FAVE will be handed to Jordan
Kallman.
Jeffs area of responsibility will ensure that operational standards are being met, product
delivery is perfect and the guest experience is always exceeding expectations. Jeff will
run the facility, managing relationships with suppliers, vendors, employees and guests.
Joseph will manage the finances of FAVE. He will ensure that Jeffs scope is within
budget and that financial standards-of-performance and being met. Joseph will
coordinate the relationships with investors and the board. Jordan will develop the metrics
by which emotional connections with the market and FAVE can be analyzed. This data is
essential in growth decisions that will be made in future.
Joseph will work to achieve budgeted results and a profitable operation by month six ofoperations. Should this be achieved, FAVE will undergo a second round of financing
whereby the group of investors will have first right of refusal. This second round of
investment will finance the opening of the second, third and fourth FAVE. The second
FAVE is targeted to open one calendar year after the first FAVE opens. The third FAVE
is targeted to open four months after the second FAVE opens. The fourth FAVE is
targeted to open at the end of year two.
Throughout Phase One, Jordan will be responsible for managing communication
strategies, online guest feedback and all contractors responsible for the consumer
engagement with the FAVE brand. This will include social media partners, traditional
public relations, and the converter agent-based promotional program discussed in later
sections of this plan. Opportunities for brand and business development, including new
strategic relationships, partnerships and real estate location scouting will also fall under
Jordans sphere of responsibility.

Allocation of FAVE Profits
FAVE, at the discretion of the Board of Directors will reinvest all of its profits after
dividends during the first phase of growth. Reinvestment areas will be additional
restaurants, employee development (from training to retention programs and financial
incentives), product development, marketing programs, distribution and supply-chainefficiencies.
Second Phase Growth and Financing Strategy
The first four FAVE outlets are targeted to all open within 2 years of the first day of
operations of the first outlet. These outlets are all targeted to open in Vancouver. During
Year 2, a third round of financing will commence whereby the shareholders will be given
the first right of refusal. This third round of financing will be set for $1.35 Million. This
third round of financing will fund the expansion of FAVE into the Southern California
market. FAVE will also be in a position to reinvest earnings to contribute to the
expansion.
FAVE will initiate a fourth round of financing in year three and year four to raise the final
$1.5 Million that will propel the company to build a total of 17 outlets within five years of
operations. At the end of year five, FAVE is targeting to have a presence in the West
and East of Canada, as well as the US, via west coast USA.
The Option of Franchising vs. Financing
The co-founders are not targeting a franchising model for growth. As customer
experience and detailed delivery to ensure conversion in the marketplace, a corporately
owned business model for the outlets is desired. This model allows for greater controlover quality of service, product delivery and guest experience.
Investors Exit Option
FAVE will be built to attract an acquisition from a larger, and publically traded quick-
serve or fast food company. The industry average price to earnings ratio among
publically traded comparable companies is 22 times. FAVE will position itself to be
traded at 7.5 (See Investor Model section for further analysis) times. As multiple rounds
of financing will occur, this will also provide investors with multiple options for them to
pull their investments out.
