NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 3, 2010

(UNAUDITED)



|1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|-- | ------------------------------------------

Business

Diedrich Coffee, Inc. (the Company or Diedrich) is a specialty coffee roaster and wholesaler whose brands include
Diedrich Coffee, Gloria Jeans, and Coffee People. The Company has wholesale accounts with businesses and restaurant chains. In addition, the Company operates a coffee roasting facility and a distribution facility in central California that
supplies roasted coffee in a variety of packaging formats to its wholesale customers.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Diedrich and its subsidiaries have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, as well as the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 24, 2009.

The Company evaluated all subsequent events that occurred after the balance sheet date. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal, recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year.

Discontinued Operations

During the year ended June 24, 2009, the Company sold the Gloria Jeans U.S. franchise and retail operations (the
Transaction) to Praise International North America, Inc. (Praise).

Praise is an affiliate of Gloria
Jeans Coffees International Pty. Ltd., which was a party to the purchase of the Companys international franchise operations in February 2005.

Also during the fiscal year ended June 24, 2009, the Company closed the one remaining Diedrich retail location due to expiration of
the lease relating to that retail location.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets(SFAS No. 144), as codified in the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification
(ASC) topic 360, Property, Plant & Equipment(ASC 360) the financial results of the Gloria Jeans franchise operations, retail operations and the one Diedrich retail location are reported as discontinued
operations for all periods presented. Wholesale sales to former franchisees are included in continuing operations for all periods since the Company will continue to provide coffee roasting services to Praise.

The following accounts are reflected in Loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations:



| |  |  | Franchise revenues for Gloria Jeans Gourmet Coffees Franchising Corp.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Retail revenues for Gloria Jeans Gourmet Coffees Corp. and Diedrich

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

MARCH 3, 2010

(UNAUDITED)



Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles  a replacement of FAS No. 162, as codified in FASB ASC topic 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles(ASC 105). ASC 105 establishes that the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification (Codification) will become the authoritative source of U.S. GAAP and that rules and interpretive releases of the SEC will also be sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. Following ASC 105, the FASB will not issue
new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates. The Company adopted ASC 105 effective for our first quarter of fiscal year 2010.

In June 2008, the FASBs Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus regarding EITF Issue
No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entitys Own Stock (EITF 07-5), as codified in FASB ASC topic 815, Derivatives & Hedging (ASC 815). ASC 815 outlines
a two-step approach to evaluate the instruments contingent exercise provisions, if any, and to evaluate the instruments settlement provisions when determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed
to an entitys own stock. ASC 815 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and must be applied to outstanding instruments as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption as a cumulative-effect adjustment to the
opening balance of retained earnings. Early adoption is not permitted. The cumulative effect of applying ASC 815 will be reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company adopted ASC 815 on
June 25, 2009 and there was no impact on the Companys unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes to the Companys significant accounting policies during the twelve weeks ended March 3,
2010. See Footnote 1 of the Companys consolidated financial statements included in the Companys 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a comprehensive description of the Companys significant accounting policies.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment(SFAS No. 123R), as
codified in FASB ASC topic 718Compensation  Stock Compensation(ASC 718), which sets accounting requirements for share-based compensation to employees and non-employee directors, including employee stock
purchase plans, and requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the
assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of the Companys stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination rates within the
valuation model. The expected term of options is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the
option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The fair values of the options were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the following weighted average assumptions:

Concentrations

The Company generated 93.5% and 85.9% of total revenues from the sale of
K-Cups® for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, respectively. The
manufacturing and distribution of K-Cups® is licensed from a single licensor, Keurig, Incorporated
(Keurig), on a non-exclusive basis. During the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, the Company had sales to the licensor that represented approximately $32,179,000 or 48.9% and $15,768,000 or 37.9% of
wholesale sales, respectively.

The current agreement with the licensor expires in July 2013. The agreement provides for
automatic five-year renewals if certain volume thresholds are met, which thresholds the Company is currently exceeding. In its fiscal year 2009 Form 10-K, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. (NASDAQ: GMCR) (GMCR), which owns Keurig
states that the two principal patents associated with the current generation K-Cup portion packs, will expire in 2012, and pending patent applications associated with this technology which, if ultimately issued as patents, would have expiration
dates in 2023. Any major disruptions in this relationship could cause a material adverse effect on the Companys business and operations.

Accounts receivable from Keurig and one other customer were 38.4% and 12.4%, respectively and 30.4% and 13.0%, respectively of total
accounts receivable as of March 3, 2010 and June 24, 2009, respectively.

Accounts payable to Keurig was 39.7% and
38.1% of total accounts payable as of March 3, 2010 and June 24, 2009, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the March 4, 2009 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
to conform to the March 3, 2010 presentation.



|2. | LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT PLANS
|-- | ------------------------------

For the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010, the Company reported a net loss of $239,000 which was net of income tax of $228,000.
The Company had a cash balance of $5,438,000 and no access to additional borrowings under the current credit facility as of March 3, 2010.

The Contingent Convertible Note Purchase Agreement with Sequoia Enterprises, L.P. (Sequoia), a limited partnership whose sole
general partner is a significant shareholder of the Company and also serves as the Executive Chairman of the Companys board of directors (the Note Purchase Agreement), expired on March 31, 2010 and the $2,000,000 balance on
the outstanding note was due in full on that date. As per the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company paid $2,000,000 due to Sequoia on March 31, 2010. In addition, the Company obtained a $3,000,000 Term Loan (as defined below) from
Sequoia on August 26, 2008. See Note 10. The Company is required to make regular monthly payments of interest on the Term Loan. As per the terms of the Term Loan

Agreement (as defined below), the Company paid $1,000,000 due to Sequoia on July 29, 2009. All outstanding principal and interest will be due on the maturity date of August 26, 2011,
unless due earlier pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Agreement upon a change of control of the Company or an event of default. As of March 3, 2010, the Company had $2,000,000 outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement.

The Company believes that cash flow from operations and payments from notes receivable due from Praise and Gloria Jeans Coffees
International Pty. Ltd issued in connection with the sale of the Gloria Jeans U.S. and international franchise operations will be sufficient to satisfy working capital needs at the anticipated operating levels and debt service requirements for
at least the next twelve months.

The Companys future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the
extent and timing of the rate at which the business grows, if at all, with corresponding demands for working capital. The Company may be required to seek additional funding through debt financing, equity financing or a combination of funding methods
to meet capital requirements and sustain operations. However, additional funds may not be available on terms acceptable or at all.

For the twelve and thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010, employee stock options of approximately
699,000 and warrants of 1,987,000 were excluded from the computation of dilutive earnings per share as their impact would have been anti-dilutive. For the twelve and thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009, employee stock options of approximately
663,000 shares and 2,167,000 of stock purchase warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as their impact would have been anti-dilutive.

|8. | SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION
|-- | -------------------------------

Subsequent to the sale of Gloria Jeans U.S. franchise and retail operations (see Note 1), the Company has two reportable segments,
wholesale operations and retail and other. Retail and other includes ecommerce retail operations and franchise operations. Ecommerce revenues are derived from sales of products through the Companys three websites, www.diedrich.com,
www.coffeepeople.com and www.coffeeteastore.com. The Company evaluates performance of its operating segments based on income before provision for asset impairment and restructuring costs, income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and
amortization, and general and administrative expenses.

Summarized financial information of continuing operations of the
Companys reportable segments is shown in the following table. The other total assets consist of corporate cash, corporate notes receivable, corporate prepaid expenses, and corporate property, plant and equipment. The other component of segment
income (loss) before tax includes corporate general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization expense, and interest expense.

with the entry into the Term Loan Agreement (as defined below) entered into on August 26, 2008. As amended, the notes issued under the Note Purchase Agreement were due in full on
March 31, 2010, and the Company was only required to make monthly payments of interest and the monthly commitment fee, but not principal, until such date. The Note Purchase Agreement contains covenants, among others, that limit the amount of
indebtedness that the Company may have outstanding in relation to its tangible net worth. As of March 3, 2010, the Company had $2,000,000 of issued notes outstanding under the Note Purchase Agreement and was in compliance with all covenants
contained in the Note Purchase Agreement. Subsequently, on March 31, 2010, the Company paid in full the $2,000,000 due to Sequoia under the Note Purchase Agreement.

Loan Agreement:

On August 26, 2008, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Sequoia (the Term Loan Agreement). The Term Loan
Agreement provides for a $3,000,000 term loan (the Term Loan). As amended, interest is payable at one-month LIBOR plus 9.30% for any period during which the ratio of Indebtedness (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) on a consolidated
basis to Effective Tangible Net Worth (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) is greater than 1.75:1.00 or the one-month LIBOR plus 6.30% for any other period, in each case reset on a periodic basis as provided in the Term Loan Agreement. The
Company is required to make regular monthly payments of interest on the Term Loan with Sequoia. In addition, as per the terms of the Term Loan Agreement, the Company paid $1,000,000 due to Sequoia on July 29, 2009. All outstanding principal and
interest will be due on the maturity date of August 26, 2011, unless due earlier pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Agreement upon a change of control of the Company or an event of default. As of March 3, 2010, the Company had
$2,000,000 outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement.

The Term Loan Agreement requires the Company to refrain from further
borrowings under the Note Purchase Agreement and contains restrictions on incurring indebtedness on par with, or senior to, the Term Loan Agreement. The Term Loan Agreement also contains a covenant that limits the amount of indebtedness that the
Company may have outstanding in relation to tangible net worth, in addition to other standard covenants and events of default. As of March 3, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Term Loan Agreement.

The Term Loan is senior to all other indebtedness of the Company, except indebtedness pursuant to notes under the Note
Purchase Agreement and certain permitted indebtedness identified in the Term Loan Agreement. Upon repayment of the notes under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Term Loan will be senior to all other indebtedness of the Company, except such permitted
indebtedness.

Letter of Credit:

In addition, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Bank of the West on November 4, 2005. The current agreement provides
for a $500,000 letter of credit facility that expires on October 31, 2010. The letter of credit facility is secured by a deposit account at Bank of the West. As of March 3, 2010, this deposit account had a balance of $623,000, which is
shown as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets. As of March 3, 2010, $472,000 of letters of credit were outstanding under the letter of credit facility. The agreement contains covenants that, among other matters, require the
Company to submit financial statements to the bank within specified time periods. As of March 3, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all Bank of the West agreement covenants.

common stock on such date. The fair value of these warrants was approximately $440,000 which was immediately recorded as interest expense. The 2009 Sequoia Warrant is exercisable by Sequoia, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time,
prior to April 29, 2014. The 2009 Sequoia Warrant is not eligible for cashless exercise, but the Company is obligated to cause the common stock issued upon exercise of the 2009 Sequoia Warrant to be registered with the SEC and applicable state

|12. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
|--- | -----------------

A lawsuit
entitled Leader Bank v. Ajay Misra, et al v. Diedrich Coffee et al, was pending on March 3, 2010 in the Middlesex Superior Court, Middlesex, Massachusetts. In that case the Plaintiff, Leader Bank, filed a complaint to collect on a defaulted
promissory note it had with the franchisee, Defendant Amtek Group, LLC, on February 23, 2009. Ajay and Priya Misra were named defendants as well. On June 16, 2009, Defendants filed a third-party complaint against Diedrich alleging breach
of contract, aiding and abetting Leader Bank in its takeover of the store and breach of privacy. In their complaint, third-party plaintiffs claimed that they were entitled to $2,477,500. The Company contested the third-party complaint
vigorously. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint, and all of Amteks claims, along with Misras claims of breach of contract and privacy were dismissed. Misra amended the complaint to bring additional claims of
misrepresentation, promissory estoppel and breach of good faith. The Company believed that liability was not probable and the potential settlement not estimable under the lawsuit. Given the relative expenses of litigation, however, the Company
agreed to mediate this matter in an attempt to resolve the suit without further expense. As a result of this mediation, the parties have agreed in principle to settlement terms. As of March 3, 2010, the Company estimated that the
required amount to settle this claim is $45,000 and recorded an accrual for this amount included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Subsequently, on April 13, 2009, the Company paid
$45,000 to Misra to fully settle this claim.

(UNAUDITED)



On November 10, 2009, an action entitled George Mendenhall, individually and on
behalf of all others similarly situated v. J. Russell Phillips, et al., (the Complaint) was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Orange (the Court). In this action, the plaintiff named
as defendants Diedrich, the members of the Board, Peets and Peets wholly owned subsidiary, Marty Acquisition Sub, Inc. Among other things, the Complaint alleged that the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to
Diedrichs stockholders in connection with the transactions previously contemplated by the terminated Peets Agreement, allegedly resulting in an unfair process and unfair price to such stockholders. The Complaint sought class
certification and certain forms of equitable relief, including enjoining the completion of the transactions previously contemplated by the terminated Peets Agreement.

On December 23, 2009, an amended Complaint (the Amended Complaint) was filed in the Court. The Amended Complaint names
as defendants Diedrich, the members of the Board, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc., a Delaware corporation (GMCR), and Pebbles Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of GMCR (Acquisition
Sub). Among other things, the Amended Complaint allegedly that the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to Diedrich stockholders by failing to provide adequate disclosures of allegedly material information concerning the
transaction and also seeks an equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs from Diedrich, the members of the Board, GMCR and Acquisition Sub for the benefit allegedly conferred by plaintiffs counsel on Diedrich stockholders through
plaintiffs alleged involvement in the auction process. The Amended Complaint seeks class certification, certain forms of equitable relief, including enjoining the completion of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement with GMCR
until additional disclosures are provided, and an equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs. On December 30, 2009, plaintiff filed an ex parteapplication with the Court for a temporary restraining order, a schedule for a
motion for preliminary injunction and expedited discovery (the Application). On December 31, 2009, the Court denied the Application in its entirety. On January 22, 2010, Diedrich and the members of the Board filed with the
Court a demurrer seeking the dismissal of the causes of action alleged against Diedrich and the members of the Board in the Amended Complaint. On January 27, 2010, GMCR and Acquisition Sub filed with the Court a demurrer seeking the dismissal
of the cause of action alleged against GMCR and Acquisition Sub in the Amended Complaint. On March 12, 2010, the Court sustained the demurrer of Diedrich and the members of the Board to plaintiffs claim for equitable assessment of
attorneys fees and costs, with thirty days leave to amend, and overruled the demurrer to the disclosure claims against the members of the Board. The Court also sustained the demurrer of GMCR and Acquisition Sub to plaintiffs claim for
equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs, with thirty days leave to amend. Diedrich believes that the allegations of the Amended Complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously contest the action.

The Company believes that liability is not probable under this lawsuit and has therefore not accrued any amounts related to the potential
claims under this lawsuit in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 3, 2010. The Company maintains insurance coverage that it believes is adequate for its business, including, but not limited to, professional and general
liability insurance. There is no assurance that the insurance maintained will be adequate in the event of a claim, or that such insurance will continue to be available in the future.



|13. | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
|--- | -----------------------

During
the fiscal year ended June 24, 2009, the Company sold the Gloria Jeans U.S. franchise and retail operations to Praise.

In addition, the Company entered into several ancillary agreements, including a roasting agreement whereby the Company agreed to provide
coffee roasting services to Praise for a period of five years and a trademark license agreement whereby the Company granted to Praise a license to use the Companys Gloria Jeans Gourmet Coffees Corp. U.S. trademarks in the United States
of America (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico) until these trademarks are transferred to Gloria Jeans Coffees International Pty. Ltd.

Praise is an affiliate of Gloria Jeans Coffees International Pty. Ltd., which was a party to the purchase of the Companys
international franchise operations in February 2005.

Also during the fiscal year ended June 24, 2009, the Company closed
the one remaining Diedrich retail location due to expiration of the lease relating to that retail location.

In accordance
with ASC 360, the financial results of the Gloria Jeans franchise operations, retail operations and the one Diedrich retail location are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Wholesale sales to former franchisees are
included in continuing operations for all periods since the Company will continue to provide coffee roasting services to Praise.

|14. | INCOME TAXES
|--- | ------------

In assessing the
realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of
future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this
assessment. Based upon the level of historical losses and limited earnings history, management cannot conclude that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, and thus has recorded a
valuation allowance against the entire deferred tax asset balance.

The income tax provision of $228,000 for the thirty-six
weeks ended March 3, 2010 primarily represents California state income taxes since the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards has been suspended by the state for the Companys 2010 fiscal year end. Until the Company completes a
tax study, the merger related expenses are being treated as a non-deductible expenditure for income tax purposes. Subsequent to the merger (see Note 15 below), net operating loss carryforwards of the Company could be subject to possible annual
limitation pertaining to change in ownership rules under the Internal Revenue Code. The Companys accrual for uncertain tax positions was $33,000 as of March 3, 2010 and June 24, 2009. There was $8,000 of interest and penalties
associated with uncertain tax positions as of March 3, 2010 and June 24, 2009.



|15. | PROPOSED MERGER WITH GREEN MOUNTAIN COFFEE ROASTERS, INC.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------

On December 7, 2009, Diedrich, GMCR, and Acquisition Sub, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger
Agreement), whereby GMCR agreed to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of Diedrichs common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Shares), in exchange for, with respect to each share, the right to receive $35.00 in cash,
without interest (the Offer Consideration). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Merger (as defined below), Acquisition Sub will merge with and into Diedrich, with Diedrich
surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of GMCR (the Merger). In the Merger, each outstanding Share that is not tendered and accepted pursuant to the Offer (as defined below) (other than Shares held by Diedrich or any of its wholly owned
subsidiaries or held in its treasury, or owned by GMCR or Acquisition Sub or any other wholly owned subsidiary of GMCR, and other than Shares as to which appraisal rights have been perfected in accordance with applicable law) will be converted into
the right to receive the Offer Consideration.

As required under the Merger Agreement, on December 11, 2009, GMCR,
through Acquisition Sub, commenced a tender offer (the Offer) whereby Acquisition Sub is offering to acquire the Shares in exchange for, with respect to each share, the right to receive the Offer Consideration, subject to the conditions
set forth in GMCRs Offer to Purchase, dated December 11, 2009 and related Letter of Transmittal. The Offer was initially scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight Eastern Time on January 11, 2010 (one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern
Time, on January 11, 2010). However, Acquisition Sub extended the Offer on January 8, 2010, and then subsequently on each of February 8, 2010, March 9, 2010 and April 6, 2010, for the maximum duration permitted under
the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, the Offer will expire at 12:00 midnight Eastern Time on May 3, 2010 (one minute after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 3, 2010), unless further extended.

(UNAUDITED)



Consummation of the Offer is subject to customary conditions, including, but not limited
to, (i) a number of Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer that, together with any Shares owned by GMCR, Acquisition Sub or any other subsidiary of GMCR immediately prior to the acceptance pursuant to the Offer,
represents more than 50% of the Adjusted Outstanding Share Number (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (ii) the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and
(iii) the absence of any Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) since the date of the Merger Agreement. The Offer is not subject to a financing condition.

The Merger Agreement and the Offer may be terminated under certain customary circumstances by GMCR or Diedrich, including if the
Acceptance Time does not occur by February 15, 2010, provided, however, that such date will automatically be extended until June 15, 2010 if, on February 15, 2010, all of the conditions to the Offer have been satisfied or fulfilled or
capable of being satisfied or fulfilled, except certain conditions regarding regulatory approvals. The Merger Agreement provides for a termination fee of $8,517,000 payable by Diedrich to GMCR if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain
circumstances. If Diedrich fails to pay when due any amounts payable under such termination fee provisions, then Diedrich shall (i) reimburse GMCR for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of legal counsel)
actually incurred in connection with the collection of such overdue amount and the enforcement by GMCR of its rights under the Merger Agreement, and (ii) pay to GMCR interest on any amount that is overdue. In addition, the Merger Agreement
includes a graduated reverse termination fee such that, if the Merger Agreement were terminated by GMCR under certain circumstances involving regulatory approvals, a reverse termination fee would be payable by GMCR to Diedrich based on the
following: (a) if the Merger Agreement is terminated before February 15, 2010 under such circumstances, GMCR would be obligated to pay $8,517,000; (b) if the Merger Agreement were terminated on or after February 15, 2010 but
before April 15, 2010, GMCR would be obligated to pay $9,517,000; (c) if the Merger Agreement were terminated on or after April 15, 2010 but before June 15, 2010, GMCR would be obligated to pay $10,517,000; and (d) if the
Merger Agreement were terminated on or after June 15, 2010, GMCR would be obligated to pay $11,517,000.

In connection
with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on December 7, 2009, certain directors and executive officers of Diedrich entered into stockholder agreements with GMCR (the Stockholder Agreements) whereby such directors
and executive officers agreed to tender Shares in the Offer, subject to certain terms and conditions. Pursuant to his Stockholder Agreement, Paul C. Heeschen, Executive Chairman of Diedrichs board of directors (the Board), has
agreed to tender 1,832,580 Shares in the Offer.

Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.Prior to entering into
the Merger Agreement with GMCR, Diedrich: (a) terminated the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 2, 2009 (as amended by an Amendment No. 1 dated November 17, 2009, the Peets Merger Agreement), by
and among Peets Coffee & Tea, Inc., a Washington corporation (Peets), Marty Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Peets, and Diedrich, in accordance with its terms; and
(b) paid to Peets a termination fee of $8,517,000 pursuant to the Peets Merger Agreement, which fee was paid to Peets on behalf of Diedrich by GMCR. Concurrently with the termination of the Peets Merger Agreement, the
Stockholder Agreements, dated November 2, 2009, between Peets and each of Paul C. Heeschen and certain other directors and executive officers of Diedrich, were automatically terminated.

Litigation.On November 10, 2009, the Complaint was filed in the Court. In this action, the plaintiff named as defendants
Diedrich, the members of the Board, Peets and Peets wholly owned subsidiary, Marty Acquisition Sub, Inc. Among other things, the Complaint alleged that the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to Diedrichs
stockholders in connection with the transactions previously contemplated by the terminated Peets Merger Agreement, allegedly resulting in an unfair process and unfair price to such stockholders. The Complaint sought class certification and
certain forms of equitable relief, including enjoining the completion of the transactions previously contemplated by the terminated Peets Merger Agreement.

On December 23, 2009, the Amended Complaint was filed in the Court. The Amended
Complaint names as defendants Diedrich, the members of the Board, GMCR and Acquisition Sub. Among other things, the Amended Complaint alleges that the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to Diedrich stockholders by failing to
provide adequate disclosures of allegedly material information concerning the transaction and also seeks an equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs from Diedrich, the members of the Board, GMCR and Acquisition Sub for the benefit
allegedly conferred by plaintiffs counsel on Diedrich stockholders through plaintiffs alleged involvement in the auction process. The Amended Complaint seeks class certification, certain forms of equitable relief, including enjoining the
completion of the transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement with GMCR until additional disclosures are provided, and an equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs. On December 30, 2009, plaintiff filed the Application. On
December 31, 2009, the Court denied the Application in its entirety. On January 22, 2010, Diedrich and the members of the Board filed with the Court a demurrer seeking the dismissal of the causes of action alleged against Diedrich and the
members of the Board in the Amended Complaint. On January 27, 2010, GMCR and Acquisition Sub filed with the Court a demurrer seeking the dismissal of the cause of action alleged against GMCR and Acquisition Sub in the Amended Complaint. On
March 12, 2010, the Court sustained the demurrer of Diedrich and the members of the Board to plaintiffs claim for equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs, with thirty days leave to amend, and overruled the demurrer to the
disclosure claims against the members of the Board. The Court also sustained the demurrer of GMCR and Acquisition Sub to plaintiffs claim for equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs, with thirty days leave to amend. Diedrich
believes that the allegations of the Amended Complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously contest the action.

Change in Control and Termination Provisions Applicable to Mr. Sean McCarthy.Mr. Sean McCarthy is entitled to a
severance payment equal to nine months of annual base salary if he is terminated by Diedrich without cause, provided that he executes a customary release of Diedrich. As discussed in more detail below, Mr. McCarthy, who was formerly Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer was appointed President and Chief Financial Officer of Diedrich, effective as of February 1, 2010, and entered into a Letter Agreement dated January 22, 2010 (the Letter Agreement) related
to such appointment. Under the Letter Agreement, Mr. McCarthy will receive a lump sum severance payment equal to his annual base salary if he is terminated for any reason other than a Just Cause Dismissal (as defined in Article IX
of Diedrichs 2000 Equity Incentive Plan) instead of the nine months of annual base salary severance payment described above, provided that Mr. McCarthy executes a complete release of Diedrich in connection with or related to his
employment with Diedrich. Mr. McCarthy is also entitled to a stock appreciation payment upon the consummation of a change in control transaction, provided that he executes a general release of Diedrich. For this purpose, a change in control
transaction is defined as a transaction that results in a non-affiliate of Diedrich acquiring 90% of the outstanding shares of common stock. The stock appreciation payment payable to Mr. McCarthy upon the consummation of a change in control
transaction is equal to the product of (i) the difference determined by subtracting $5.00 from the per share price at which at least 90% of the outstanding shares of common stock is acquired, multiplied by (ii) 100,000.

In connection with the Offer and the Merger, Mr. McCarthy will receive an aggregate payment of $3,626,200, which is comprised of
(i) a payment of $3,000,000 (constituting the stock appreciation payment) and (ii) a payment of $626,200 in connection with Diedrich options owned by him. Under the prior employment letter agreement, if Mr. McCarthy were to be
terminated without cause following the Merger, Mr. McCarthy would also receive a lump sum payment of $168,750, provided that he executes a customary release of Diedrich. However, pursuant to the Letter Agreement entered into in connection with
his appointment as President and Chief Financial Officer, effective as of February 1, 2010, if Mr. McCarthy is terminated for any reason other than a Just Cause Dismissal (as defined in Article IX of Diedrichs 2000 Equity
Incentive Plan) following the Merger, Mr. McCarthy will receive a lump sum payment of $275,000 (instead of the lump sum payment of $168,750 described above), provided that Mr. McCarthy executes a complete release of Diedrich in connection
with or related to his employment with Diedrich.

Recent Developments

Proposed Merger with Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. On December 7, 2009, Diedrich, GMCR, and Acquisition Sub, entered
into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), whereby GMCR agreed to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of Diedrichs common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the Shares), in exchange for, with
respect to each share, the right to receive $35.00 in cash, without interest (the Offer Consideration). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Merger (as defined below),
Acquisition Sub will merge with and into Diedrich, with Diedrich surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of GMCR (the Merger). In the Merger, each outstanding Share that is not tendered and accepted pursuant to the Offer (as defined
below) (other than Shares held by Diedrich or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries or held in its treasury, or owned by GMCR or Acquisition Sub or any other wholly owned subsidiary of GMCR, and other than Shares as to which appraisal rights have
been perfected in accordance with applicable law) will be converted into the right to receive the Offer Consideration.

As
required under the Merger Agreement, on December 11, 2009, GMCR, through Acquisition Sub, commenced a tender offer (the Offer) whereby Acquisition Sub is offering to acquire the Shares in exchange for, with respect to each share,
the right to receive the Offer Consideration, subject to the conditions set forth in GMCRs Offer to Purchase and related Letter of Transmittal, dated December 11, 2009. The Offer was initially scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight Eastern
Time on January 11, 2010 (one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on January 11, 2010). However, Acquisition Sub extended the Offer on January 8, 2010, and then subsequently on each of February 8, 2010, March 9, 2010
and April 6, 2010, for the maximum duration permitted under the Merger Agreement. Accordingly, the Offer will expire at 12:00 midnight Eastern Time on May 3, 2010 (one minute after 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 3, 2010), unless further
extended.

Consummation of the Offer is subject to customary conditions, including, but not limited to, (i) a number of
Shares validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer that, together with any Shares owned by GMCR, Acquisition Sub or any other subsidiary of GMCR immediately prior to the acceptance pursuant to the Offer, represents more than 50% of the
Adjusted Outstanding Share Number (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (ii) the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and (iii) the absence of any
Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement) since the date of the Merger Agreement. The Offer is not subject to a financing condition.

The Merger Agreement and the Offer may be terminated under certain customary circumstances by GMCR or Diedrich, including if the
Acceptance Time does not occur by February 15, 2010, provided, however, that such date will automatically be extended until June 15, 2010 if, on February 15, 2010, all of the conditions to the Offer have been satisfied or fulfilled or
capable of being satisfied or fulfilled, except certain conditions regarding regulatory approvals. The Merger Agreement provides for a termination fee of $8,517,000 payable by Diedrich to GMCR if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain
circumstances. If Diedrich fails to pay when due any amounts payable under such termination fee provisions, then Diedrich shall (i) reimburse GMCR for all reasonable costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of legal counsel)
actually incurred in connection with the collection of such overdue amount and the enforcement by GMCR of its rights under the Merger Agreement, and (ii) pay to GMCR interest on any amount that is overdue. In addition, the Merger Agreement
includes a graduated reverse termination fee such that, if the Merger Agreement were terminated by GMCR under certain circumstances involving regulatory approvals, a reverse termination fee would be payable by GMCR to Diedrich based on the
following: (a) if the Merger Agreement is terminated before February 15, 2010 under such circumstances, GMCR would be obligated to pay $8,517,000; (b) if the Merger Agreement were terminated on or after February 15, 2010 but
before April 15, 2010, GMCR would be obligated to pay $9,517,000; (c) if the Merger Agreement were terminated on or after April 15, 2010 but before June 15, 2010, GMCR would be obligated to pay $10,517,000; and (d) if the
Merger Agreement were terminated on or after June 15, 2010, GMCR would be obligated to pay $11,517,000.

In connection
with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on December 7, 2009, certain directors and executive officers of Diedrich entered into stockholder agreements with GMCR (the Stockholder Agreements) whereby such directors
and executive officers agreed to tender Shares in the Offer, subject to certain terms and conditions. Pursuant to his Stockholder Agreement, Paul C. Heeschen, Executive Chairman of Diedrichs board of directors (the Board), has
agreed to tender 1,832,580 Shares in the Offer.

Litigation.On November 10, 2009, the Complaint was filed in the Court. In this
action, the plaintiff named as defendants Diedrich, the members of the Board, Peets and Peets wholly owned subsidiary, Marty Acquisition Sub, Inc. Among other things, the Complaint alleged that the members of the Board breached their
fiduciary duties to Diedrichs stockholders in connection with the transactions previously contemplated by the terminated Peets Merger Agreement, allegedly resulting in an unfair process and unfair price to such stockholders. The
Complaint sought class certification and certain forms of equitable relief, including enjoining the completion of the transactions previously contemplated by the terminated Peets Merger Agreement.

On December 23, 2009, the Amended Complaint was filed in the Court. The Amended Complaint names as defendants Diedrich, the members
of the Board, GMCR and Acquisition Sub. Among other things, the Amended Complaint alleges that the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to Diedrich stockholders by failing to provide adequate disclosures of allegedly material
information concerning the transaction and also seeks an equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs from Diedrich, the members of the Board, GMCR and Acquisition Sub for the benefit allegedly conferred by plaintiffs counsel on
Diedrich stockholders through plaintiffs alleged involvement in the auction process. The Amended Complaint seeks class certification, certain forms of equitable relief, including enjoining the completion of the transaction contemplated by the
Merger Agreement with GMCR until additional disclosures are provided, and an equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs. On December 30, 2009, plaintiff filed the Application. On December 31, 2009, the Court denied the
Application in its entirety. On January 22, 2010, Diedrich and the members of the Board filed with the Court a demurrer seeking the dismissal of the causes of action alleged against Diedrich and the members of the Board in the Amended
Complaint. On January 27, 2010, GMCR and Acquisition Sub filed with the Court a demurrer seeking the dismissal of the cause of action alleged against GMCR and Acquisition Sub in the Amended Complaint. On March 12, 2010, the Court sustained
the demurrer of Diedrich and the members of the Board to plaintiffs claim for equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs, with thirty days leave to amend, and overruled the demurrer to the disclosure claims against the members of
the Board. The Court also sustained the demurrer of GMCR and Acquisition Sub to plaintiffs claim for equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs, with thirty days leave to amend. Diedrich believes that the allegations of the Amended
Complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously contest the action.

The Company believes that liability is not probable
under this lawsuit and has therefore not accrued any amounts related to the potential claims under this lawsuit in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 3, 2010. The Company maintains insurance coverage that it believes
is adequate for its business, including, but not limited to, professional and general liability insurance. There is no assurance that the insurance maintained will be adequate in the event of a claim, or that such insurance will continue to be
available in the future.

Retail Outlets

Our strategy is to capitalize on the growth of the wholesale specialty coffee market and our strength as a premier roaster and distributor
of the worlds finest coffees. In the Transaction with Praise, we sold the Gloria Jeans U.S. franchise and retail operations which included the transfer of 12 company-operated and 90 franchised Gloria Jeans retail coffeehouses.
During the twelve weeks ended September 16, 2009, the two remaining Diedrich franchise locations were closed. As of March 3, 2010, we have four Coffee People, Inc. franchise locations. The Company currently has no plans to open any
additional company-operated or franchised Diedrich or Coffee People coffeehouses.

Seasonality and Quarterly Results

Our business experiences some variations in sales from quarter to quarter due to the holiday season and other factors including, but not
limited to, general economic trends, competition, marketing programs and the weather. Because of the seasonality of our business, results from any quarter may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved in any other quarter or the full
fiscal year, especially for our first fiscal quarter which tends to be the weakest.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 compared with the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009

Total Revenue. Our revenue from continuing operations for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 increased by
$8,001,000 or 44.7%, to $25,885,000 from $17,884,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009. Each component of total revenue is discussed below.

Wholesale Revenue. Our wholesale sales for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 increased by
$8,093,000, or 46.1%, to $25,661,000 from $17,568,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009. Wholesale sales to OCS and other third party wholesale customers increased $8,271,000, or 50.1% to $24,785,000 from $16,514,000 led by strong growth
in the Keurig K-Cup sales which increased by 54.8% or $8,687,000 from the prior year quarter. We generated 94.8% and 88.7% of our total revenues from the sale of
K-Cups® for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, respectively. We are one of the
few roasters under a non-exclusive license to produce K-Cups®. Sales to our licensor, Keurig, Incorporated,
represented approximately $11,913,000, or 46.4% of wholesale sales and $8,310,000, or 47.3% of wholesale sales for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, respectively. Roasted coffee sales to former franchisee locations
that are now owned by Praise decreased $178,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010. Wholesale sales to the former franchisees are included in continuing operations for all periods as we will continue to provide coffee roasting services to
Praise.

Retail and other. Retail and other for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 decreased by $92,000, or
29.1%, to $224,000 from $316,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009. Retail sales are related to our ecommerce business through our three web stores. Retail sales for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 decreased by a net $87,000,
or 29.1%, to $212,000 from $299,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009. Other revenue consists primarily of royalties received on sales at the four remaining Coffee People franchised locations. Our franchise revenue decreased by $5,000,
or 29.4%, to $12,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 from $17,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009.

Cost of Sales. As a percentage of total revenue, cost of sales decreased from 74.4% for the twelve weeks ended
March 4, 2009 to 73.2% for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010, resulting primarily from higher machine utilization, optimal resource management and inventory controls along with our ability to continue leveraging our fixed manufacturing
costs over higher production volumes.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the twelve weeks
ended March 3, 2010 increased $403,000 to $1,437,000 from $1,034,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009. This increase resulted primarily from increases in marketing costs of $367,000 and other costs of $36,000.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased $61,000, or 14.6% to
$356,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 from $417,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009.

General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expenses increased by $2,741,000 to $4,228,000 for
the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 compared to $1,487,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increases in cash compensation costs of $426,000, non-cash stock
compensation costs of $2,122,000 and legal, consulting and other costs of $264,000 and was partially offset by reductions in credit card processing fees of $71,000 which are now allocated to operating expenses. The increase in non-cash stock
compensation costs primarily resulted from the modification of certain options. As a result, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased from 8.3% for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009 to 16.3% for the
twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $98,000 from
$227,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009 to $129,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010. The decrease in interest expense was primarily the result of higher interest expense associated with the extension of the Note Purchase
Agreement during the prior year quarter.

Merger Related Costs.For the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010,
we expensed $1,636,000 of non-operating costs associated with the pending merger with GMCR. Merger transaction costs primarily include legal, financial advisory and consulting fees.

Income Taxes. We had losses from continuing operations of $778,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 and
income from continuing operations of $1,460,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009, respectively. In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, we had an income tax benefit of $35,000 and a tax provision of $8,000 for the
twelve weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, respectively. Until we complete a tax study, the merger related expenses of $1,636,000 are being treated as a non-deductible expenditure for income tax purposes.

Results of Discontinued OperationsRetail. The
Transaction with Praise, which closed on June 12, 2009, included the transfer of 12 company-operated and 90 franchised Gloria Jeans locations to Praise. The financial results of the retail operations that were sold or closed and Gloria
Jeans franchised operations are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented in accordance with ASC 360. For the twelve weeks ended March 4, 2009, loss from discontinued operations was $102,000 net of $0 in taxes. The tax
expense associated with the discontinued retail operations differed from the statutory federal effective tax rate primarily due to changes in the valuation allowance associated with the discontinued operations.

Thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 compared with the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009

Total Revenue. Our revenue from continuing operations for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 increased by

growth in the Keurig K-Cup sales which increased by 71.1% or $25,770,000 from the prior year period. We generated 93.5% and 85.9% of our total revenues from the sale of
K-Cups® for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, respectively. Sales to our
licensor, Keurig, Incorporated, represented approximately $32,179,000, or 48.9% of wholesale sales and $15,768,000, or 37.9% of wholesale sales for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, respectively. Roasted coffee
sales to former franchisee locations that are now owned by Praise decreased $200,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010. Wholesale sales to the former franchisees are included in continuing operations for all periods as we will

March 4, 2009 to 73.6% for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010, resulting primarily from higher machine utilization, optimal resource management and inventory controls along with our ability to continue leveraging our fixed
manufacturing costs over higher production volumes.

Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the
thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 increased $766,000 to $4,058,000 from $3,292,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009. This increase resulted primarily from increases in marketing costs of $878,000 along with increases in
compensation of $132,000, travel costs of $79,000 and credit card fees of $126,000 and was partially offset by a decrease in allowance for doubtful accounts of $267,000, equipment costs of $115,000 and other costs of $67,000.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased $81,000, or 7.0% to

the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 compared to $4,878,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increases in cash compensation costs of $973,000,
non-cash stock compensation costs of $2,450,000 and was partially offset by reductions in legal, consulting and outside services of $263,000. The increase in non-cash stock compensation costs primarily resulted from the modification of certain
options. As a result, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased from 11.6% for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009 to 12.1% for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $358,000 from $794,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4,
2009 to $436,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010. The decrease in interest expense was primarily the result of higher interest expense associated with the extension of the Note Purchase Agreement during the prior year.

Merger Related Costs.For the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010, we incurred $4,137,000 of non-operating costs
associated with the pending merger with GMCR. Merger transaction costs primarily include legal, financial advisory and consulting fees.

Income Taxes. We had losses from continuing operations of $239,000 and
$919,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, respectively. In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, the income tax provision generated by the losses from continuing operations was $228,000
and $12,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 and March 4, 2009, respectively. The tax provision for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 primarily represents California state income taxes since the utilization of net
operating loss carryforwards has been suspended by the state for our 2010 fiscal year end. Until we complete a study, the merger related expenses of $4,137,000 are being treated as a non-deductible expenditure for income tax purposes. As of
March 3, 2010, net operating loss carryforwards of $5,291,000 and $9,407,000 for federal and state income tax purposes, respectively are available to be utilized against future taxable income for years through fiscal year 2028, subject to
annual limitation pertaining to change in ownership rules under the Internal Revenue Code. Based upon the level of historical losses and limited earnings history, we cannot conclude that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits
of these deductible differences, and thus have recorded a valuation allowance against the entire deferred tax asset balance.

Results of Discontinued OperationsRetail. The Transaction with Praise, which closed on
June 12, 2009, included the transfer of 12 company-operated and 90 franchised Gloria Jeans locations to Praise. The financial results of the retail operations that were sold or closed and Gloria Jeans franchised operations are
reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented in accordance with ASC 360. For the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009, loss from discontinued operations was $501,000 net of $0 in taxes. The tax expense associated with the
discontinued retail operations differed from the statutory federal effective tax rate primarily due to changes in the valuation allowance associated with the discontinued operations.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Current Financial Condition. At March 3, 2010, we had working capital of $10,849,000, long term debt, deferred
rent, income tax and other liabilities of $1,886,000 and $16,210,000 of stockholders equity, compared to working capital of $8,828,000, long term debt, deferred rent, income tax and other liabilities of $2,005,000 and $13,774,000 of
stockholders equity at June 24, 2009.

Accounts receivable as of March 3, 2010 was $12,056,000, an increase of
$5,721,000 from the balance of $6,335,000 at June 24, 2009. This increase resulted primarily from a more than 47% average increase in wholesale sales compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. The accounts payable balance of $9,148,000 as
of March 3, 2010 is an increase of $3,920,000 from the June 24, 2009 balance of $5,228,000. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in wholesale sales compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 and the merger related costs.

Cash Flows.The Company had a loss from continuing operations of $239,000, for the thirty-six weeks ended
March 3, 2010 and losses from continuing operations of $919,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was $2,152,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended
March 3, 2010 compared to net cash used in operating activities of continuing operations of $2,441,000 for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009. With an increase in wholesale sales of 58.1% for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3,
2010 along with a reduction in cost of goods sold as a percent of revenue, we improved gross margins and income from continuing operations for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 compared to the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009.
Cash used in continuing operations for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009, of $2,441,000 was primarily the result of operating losses and an increase in accounts receivable partially offset by an increase in accounts payable, as our
wholesale business grew over 57% for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009 over the prior fiscal 2008 period.

Cash
flows provided by investing activities of continuing operations for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 totaled $714,000. During the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010, capital expenditures totaled $2,094,000 and was used to invest
in property and equipment primarily related to our Castroville roasting facility. These expenditures were offset by $2,800,000 of payments received on notes receivable. Cash flows provided by investing activities of continuing operations for the
thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009 totaled $633,000. During the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009, a total of $544,000 was used to invest in property and equipment primarily related to our Castroville roasting facility of $383,000,
ecommerce retail of $157,000, wholesale and home office of $2,000, each. These expenditures were offset by $1,168,000 of payments received on notes receivable.

Net cash used by financing activities of continuing operations for the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010 of $1,000,000 was the
result of a payment on our credit facility. Net cash provided by financing activities of continuing operations for the thirty-six weeks ended March 4, 2009 of $3,000,000 was the result of borrowings under our credit facility.

Note Purchase Agreement:

On May 10, 2004, we entered into a $5,000,000 Contingent Convertible Note Purchase Agreement with Sequoia Enterprises, L.P.
(Sequoia), a limited partnership whose sole general partner is a significant shareholder of the Company and also serves as the Executive Chairman of the board of directors of the Company (the Note Purchase Agreement), which
provided, at our election, the ability to issue notes with up to an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000. We have amended the Note Purchase Agreement from time to time and have agreed to refrain from further borrowings under the Note Purchase
Agreement in connection with the entry into the Term Loan Agreement (as defined below) entered into on August 26, 2008. As amended, the notes issued under the Note Purchase Agreement were due in full on March 31, 2010, and we were only
required to make monthly payments of interest and the monthly commitment fee, but not principal, until such date. On the maturity date, all outstanding principal, interest and other amounts payable under the Note Purchase Agreement will be due
unless due earlier pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement upon a change in control of the Company or an event of default. The Note Purchase Agreement contains covenants, among others, that limit the amount of indebtedness that we may
have outstanding in relation to our tangible net worth. As of March 3, 2010, we had $2,000,000 of issued notes outstanding under the Note Purchase Agreement and were in compliance with all covenants contained in the Note Purchase Agreement.
Subsequently, on March 31, 2010, the Company paid in full the $2,000,000 due to Sequoia under the Note Purchase Agreement.

Loan
Agreement:

On August 26, 2008, we entered into a loan agreement with Sequoia (the Term Loan
Agreement). The Term Loan Agreement provides for a $3,000,000 term loan (the Term Loan). As amended, interest is payable at one-month LIBOR plus 9.30% for any period during which the ratio of Indebtedness (as defined in the Term
Loan Agreement) on a consolidated basis to Effective Tangible Net Worth (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) is greater than 1.75:1.00 or one-month LIBOR plus 6.30% for any other period, resetting on the first calendar day of each month. We are
required to make regular monthly payments of interest on the term loan with Sequoia. In addition, as per the terms of the Term Loan Agreement, we paid $1,000,000 due to Sequoia on July 29, 2009 and had a remaining balance of $2,000,000 as of
March 3, 2010. All outstanding principal and interest will be due on the maturity date of August 26, 2011, unless due earlier pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Agreement upon a change of control of the Company or an event of default.
As of March 3, 2010, $2,000,000 was outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement.

The Term Loan Agreement requires the
Company to refrain from further borrowings under the Note Purchase Agreement and contains restrictions on incurring indebtedness on par with, or senior to, the Term Loan Agreement. The Term Loan Agreement also contains a covenant that limits the
amount of indebtedness that the Company may have outstanding in relation to tangible net worth, in addition to other standard covenants and events of default. As of March 3, 2010, we were in compliance with all covenants contained in the Term
Loan Agreement.

The Term Loan is senior to all other indebtedness of the Company, except indebtedness pursuant to notes under
the Note Purchase Agreement and certain permitted indebtedness identified in the Term Loan Agreement. Upon repayment of the notes under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Term Loan will be senior to all other indebtedness of the Company, except such
permitted indebtedness.

Letter of Credit:

We entered into a Credit Agreement with Bank of the West on November 4, 2005. The current agreement provides for a $500,000 letter of
credit facility that expires on October 31, 2010. The letter of credit facility is secured by a deposit account at Bank of the West. As of March 3, 2010, this deposit account had a balance of $623,000, which is shown as restricted cash on
the consolidated balance sheets. As of March 3, 2010, $472,000 of letters of credit was outstanding under the letter of credit facility. The agreement contains covenants that, among other matters, require us to submit financial statements to
the bank within specified time periods. As of March 3, 2010, we were in compliance with all Bank of the West agreement covenants.

Liquidity and Management Plans:

For the thirty-six weeks ended March 3, 2010, we reported a net loss of $239,000, which was net of income tax of $228,000. We had a
cash balance of $5,438,000 and no access to additional borrowings under our current credit facility as of March 3, 2010.

The Note Purchase Agreement with Sequoia expired on March 31, 2010 and the $2,000,000 balance on the outstanding note was paid in
full on that date.

We are required to make regular monthly payments of interest on the Term Loan with Sequoia.
In addition, as per the terms of the Term Loan Agreement, the Company paid $1,000,000 due to Sequoia on July 29, 2009. All outstanding principal and interest will be due on the maturity date of August 26, 2011, unless due earlier pursuant
to the terms of the Term Loan Agreement upon a change of control of the Company or an event of default. As of March 3, 2010, we had $2,000,000 outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement.

We believe that cash flow from operations and payments from notes receivable due from Praise and Gloria Jeans Coffees International
Pty. Ltd. issued in connection with the sale of the Gloria Jeans U.S. and international franchise operations will be sufficient to satisfy working capital needs at the anticipated operating levels and debt service requirements for at least the
next twelve months.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the extent and timing of the rate
at which the business grows, if at all, with corresponding demands for working capital. We may be required to seek additional funding through debt financing, equity financing or a combination of funding methods to meet capital requirements and
sustain operations. However, additional funds may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

Other
Commitments. The following represents a comprehensive list of our contractual obligations and commitments as of March 3, 2010:

We previously entered into an employment letter
agreement with our Chief Financial Officer that provides for a severance payment of nine months salary in the event that he is terminated without cause. Under that prior employment letter agreement, our maximum liability for severance was $169,000.
However, effective as of February 1, 2010, in connection with his promotion to President and Chief Financial Officer and the related Letter Agreement, this executive will be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to his annual
base salary if he is terminated for any reason other than a Just Cause Dismissal (as defined in Article IX of Diedrichs 2000 Equity Incentive Plan) instead of the nine months of annual base salary severance payment described above,
provided that he executes a complete release of Diedrich in connection with or related to his employment with Diedrich. Under the Letter Agreement, our maximum liability for severance would be $275,000. In accordance with the employment agreement
with our President and Chief Financial Officer, upon consummation of the Merger, he will receive a stock appreciation payment of $3,000,000. Because such amounts are contingent, they have not been included in the above table. In addition, upon
consummation of the Merger, the entire note payable balance of $4,000,000 to Sequoia ($2,000,000 as of March 31, 2010) will be immediately due and payable.

We have obligations under non-cancelable operating leases for our roasting facility, distribution facility and administrative offices.
Lease terms are generally for up to 15 years with renewal options and generally require us to pay a proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance, common area, and other operating costs.

On December 30, 2009, the Company executed a lease agreement with Castroville Industrial Partners, LLC for approximately 62,000
square feet of warehouse space which will be used primarily as a distribution facility.

(a) As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, our management, with the participation of our President and Chief
Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)). Based on
that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 3, 2010.

(b) There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART IIOTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings.
|------- | ------------------

In
the ordinary course of our business, we may become involved in legal proceedings from time to time.

On November 10,
2009, the Complaint was filed in the Court. In this action, the plaintiff named as defendants Diedrich, the members of the Board, Peets and Peets wholly owned subsidiary, Marty Acquisition Sub, Inc. Among other things, the Complaint
alleged that the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to Diedrichs stockholders in connection with the transactions previously contemplated by the terminated Peets Merger Agreement, allegedly resulting in an unfair
process and unfair price to such stockholders. The Complaint sought class certification and certain forms of equitable relief, including enjoining the completion of the transactions previously contemplated by the terminated Peets Merger
Agreement.

On December 23, 2009, the Amended Complaint was filed in the Court. The Amended Complaint names as defendants
Diedrich, the members of the Board, GMCR and Acquisition Sub. Among other things, the Amended Complaint alleges that the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to Diedrich stockholders by failing to provide adequate disclosures of
allegedly material information concerning the transaction and also seeks an equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs from Diedrich, the members of the Board, GMCR and Acquisition Sub for the benefit allegedly conferred by
plaintiffs counsel on Diedrich stockholders through plaintiffs alleged involvement in the auction process. The Amended Complaint seeks class certification, certain forms of equitable relief, including enjoining the completion of the
transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement with GMCR until additional disclosures are provided, and an equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs. On December 30, 2009, plaintiff filed the Application. On December 31,
2009, the Court denied the Application in its entirety. On January 22, 2010, Diedrich and the members of the Board filed with the Court a demurrer seeking the dismissal of the causes of action alleged against Diedrich and the members of the
Board in the Amended Complaint. On January 27, 2010, GMCR and Acquisition Sub filed with the Court a demurrer seeking the dismissal of the cause of action alleged against GMCR and Acquisition Sub in the Amended Complaint. On March 12,
2010, the Court sustained the demurrer of Diedrich and the members of the Board to plaintiffs claim for equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs, with thirty days leave to amend, and overruled the demurrer to the disclosure
claims against the members of the Board. The Court also sustained the demurrer of GMCR and Acquisition Sub to plaintiffs claim for equitable assessment of attorneys fees and costs, with thirty days leave to amend. Diedrich believes that
the allegations of the Amended Complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously contest the action.
