<p>The Plan Committee<br>
Brinker International, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan and Trust:</p><p>We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Brinker International, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan and Trust as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended.&nbsp; These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management.&nbsp; Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.</p>
<p>We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).&nbsp; Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.&nbsp; An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.&nbsp; An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.&nbsp; We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.</p>
<p>In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Brinker International, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan and Trust as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.</p>
<p>Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole.&nbsp; The supplemental Schedule H, line 4i-Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2004, is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.&nbsp; The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management.&nbsp; The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.</p><pre>&nbsp;</pre>

<p><b>1.&nbsp; DESCRIPTION
OF THE PLAN  </b></p>





<p>The following description of the Brinker International,
Inc. (&quot;Company&quot; or &quot;Brinker&quot;) 401(k) Savings Plan and Trust (the &quot;Plan&quot;) is
provided for general information purposes only.&nbsp; Participants should refer to the Plan Document for a more
complete description of the Plan's provisions.&nbsp;
</p>



<p><i>General</i></p>



<p>The Company adopted the
Plan effective January 1, 1993. The Plan is a qualified defined contribution
retirement plan covering salaried employees who have attained the age of
twenty-one and hourly employees who have completed one year of service and have
attained the age of twenty-one. Employees that are considered part of a select
group of management earning at or above a targeted income level and employees that are members of a collective
bargaining unit are not eligible to
participate in the Plan. The Plan is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974 (&quot;ERISA&quot;).</p>



<p>The investments of the Plan are
maintained in a trust (the&nbsp;&quot;Trust&quot;) by American Express Trust
Company (the&nbsp;&quot;Trustee&quot;).</p>





<p><i>Contributions</i></p>



<p>Participants are permitted to contribute, subject to
Internal Revenue Service limitations on total annual contributions, up to 50%
of their eligible base compensation and 100% of their eligible bonuses, as
defined in the Plan, to various investment funds on a tax-deferred basis.&nbsp; Tips are excluded from the definition of eligible
compensation.&nbsp; The Company matches in
cash at a rate of 25% of the first 5% of a salaried participant's compensation
as defined in the Plan.&nbsp; Hourly
participants do not receive matching contributions. </p>





<p><i>Participants'
Accounts</i></p>



<p>Participants'
contributions are invested in accordance with their elections in the following
funds: the AXP Cash Management Fund (a money market fund), the AXP Diversified
Bond Fund (invests primarily in intermediate-term corporate bonds), the
American Century Equity Growth Fund (invests primarily in the equities of
large-cap domestic companies), the Wells Fargo Large Company Growth Fund
(invests primarily in the equities of large-cap domestic companies), the Janus
Overseas Fund (invests primarily in the equities of foreign companies), the
Neuberger Berman Genesis Fund (invests primarily in the equities of small-cap
domestic companies),&nbsp; the Brown Capital
Management Small Company Fund (invests primarily in the equities of small-cap
domestic companies), the American Express Trust (&quot;AET&quot;) Equity Index Fund II
(invests primarily in the equities of the S&amp;P 500 Index) and the Brinker
Stock Fund (consists of Company common stock and a money market fund). Company
matching contributions to the Plan are also invested in accordance with participants'
elections in the above funds. Participants' accounts are adjusted with the
proportionate share of gains or losses generated by their elected investment
funds.</p><hr><P STYLE="page-break-after: always"></P>&nbsp;<p align="center"> <b>BRINKER

<p align=center><b>&nbsp;Notes to Financial
Statements</b></p>











<p><i>Vesting</i></p>

<p>Participants are immediately vested in their
contributions and the earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company's matching
contributions is graduated at 25% annually, beginning at the end of the second
year of eligible service, up to 100% after five full years of eligible
service.&nbsp; Participants who separate from
service prior to full vesting of their rights forfeit their share of the
Company's contributions to the extent that vesting had not occurred.&nbsp; </p>



<p>On November 1, 2004, the Plan was amended to adopt a
provision whereby the vested percentage of the Company's matching contribution of any participant who ceases to be
employed by the Company because the restaurant location at which the
participant is employed is refranchised shall be 100% and effective upon the
date of the refranchising. </p>



<p><i>&nbsp;Forfeited
Accounts</i></p>



<p>Forfeitures used to reduce Company contributions totaled
$34,375 for the year ended December 31, 2004.&nbsp;
Forfeited nonvested accounts totaled $44,730 and $47,849 for the years
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.</p>

<p><i>&nbsp;Payment of Benefits</i></p>



<p>Distributions under the Plan are made upon a participant's death,
disability, retirement, or termination of employment. Benefit payments are made
in the form of a single lump sum payment, equal monthly payments for a
specified period of time, or a direct rollover into an Individual Retirement
Account or another qualified plan. </p>





<p><i>Participant Loans</i></p>



<p>Participants may borrow
from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum amount equal to
the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance. A participant may
have up to two loans outstanding at a time, however the total outstanding
balance of all loans may not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the
participant's vested account balance. Loan terms range from six months to 5
years or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are
secured by the participant's account and bear interest at a rate of 1% above
the prime lending rate which is determined at the end of the month prior to the
month in which the loan request is made. Interest rates on outstanding loans
ranged from 5.00% to 10.50% during both 2004 and 2003. Principal and interest
payments are made through bi-weekly payroll deductions. </p>



<p><b>&nbsp;2.&nbsp; SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES</b></p>





<p><i>Basis of
Accounting</i></p>

<p>The financial statements are prepared under
the accrual method of accounting.</p>

PLAN AND TRUST</b></p>

<p align=center><b>&nbsp;Notes to
Financial Statements</b></p>

<p><i>&nbsp;Use of Estimates</i></p>



<p>The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.</p>



<p><i>&nbsp;Administrative
Expenses</i></p>



<p>The Company pays all administrative expenses related to
the Plan. </p>

<p><i>&nbsp;Investment Valuation and Income
Recognition</i></p>

<p><i>&nbsp;</i>The
Plan's investments are stated at fair value using quoted market prices.
Participant loans are valued at the outstanding principal balance plus accrued
interest which approximates fair value.</p>



<p>Purchases
and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Income
from investments is recorded as earned on an accrual basis. </p>



<p><i>Payment of Benefits</i></p>

<p>Benefits are recorded when paid.</p>



<p><i>Reclassifications</i></p>

<p>Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to be
consistent with current year presentation. These reclassifications had no
effect on previously reported net assets available for benefits or changes in
net assets available for benefits.</p>





<p><b>3.&nbsp; INVESTMENTS</b></p>



<p>Individual
investments that represent 5% or more of the Plan's net assets available for
benefits as of December&nbsp;31, 2004 and 2003 were as follows:</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><b>4.&nbsp; RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS</b></p>

<p>Certain Plan investments are
managed by the Trustee. Transactions involving these investments qualify as
party-in-interest transactions.</p>



<p><b>5.&nbsp; PLAN
TERMINATION</b></p>



<p>Although
it has no present intention to do so, the Company may terminate the Plan at any
time subject to the provisions of ERISA.&nbsp;
In the event of Plan termination, all participants will become fully
vested in their Company contributions.</p>



<p><b>6.&nbsp; INCOME
TAX STATUS</b></p>



<p>The Internal Revenue Service has determined
and informed the Company by a letter dated March 22, 2001, that the Plan and
related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the
Internal Revenue Code (&quot;IRC&quot;). Although the Plan has been amended since
receiving the determination letter, the Plan Administrator believes that the
Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the IRC.&nbsp;
Therefore, the Plan Administrator believes that the Plan was qualified
and the related Trust was tax-exempt as of the financial statement date.</p>

<p><b>7.&nbsp; RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES</b></p>

<p>The Plan invests in various investment
securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest
rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with
certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes
in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that
such changes could materially affect participants' account balances and the
amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits. </p>







<p><b>8.&nbsp; SUBSEQUENT EVENT</b></p>







<p>In April 2005, the Company's Board of Directors approved an amendment to the
Plan that will expand participant eligibility and increase the Company's current
match rate.&nbsp; This amendment will be effective beginning on January 1, 2006.</p>
