Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 1 to New World Restaurant Group, Inc.'s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended
April 2, 2002 includes unaudited restated consolidated financial statements for the three months ended April 2, 2002 and April 1, 2001.

On
July 29, 2002, the Company dismissed Arthur Andersen LLP as its auditors and retained Grant Thornton LLP. In reviewing the Company's first quarter 2002 filing, the Company and
Grant Thornton determined that the Company had not appropriately accounted for the debt and equity instruments used for the acquisition (the "Einstein Acquisition") of substantially all of the assets
of Einstein/Noah Bagel Corporation and its majority owned subsidiary, Einstein/Noah Bagel Partners, L.P. ("Einstein")see Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements of the
Company included in this Form 10-Q/A.

As
a result of the foregoing, the Company engaged Grant Thornton to re-audit its financial statements for the years ended January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2000,
which resulted in, among other things, in restatements to the Company's accounting for the debt and equity instruments used for the Einstein Acquisition, purchase accounting for certain acquisitions,
and assets held for resale. The restatements affected periods prior to 2000. The impact of the restatement on such prior periods was reflected as an adjustment to opening retained earnings at the
beginning of 2000. These adjustments have also necessitated the amendment of the Company's previously issued Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 2, 2002.

The
restatement of previously issued financial statements increased the Company's net loss available to common stockholders for the year ended January 1, 2002 by approximately
$22.4 million and decreased the Company's net income available to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2000 by $11.8 million. For the year ended January 1,
2002, basic and diluted loss per common share, were decreased by $1.15. For the year ended December 31, 2000, basic earnings per common share decreased by $0.95 and diluted earnings per share
decreased by $0.92. For the quarter ended April 2, 2002, the Company's net loss available to common stockholders increased by $15.5 million and for the quarter ended April 1, 2001
increased by $7.1 million. For the quarter ended April 2, 2002, diluted net loss per common share decreased by $0.62. For the quarter ended April 1, 2001, net loss per common
share increased by $0.08.

For
a description of the restatements, see Note 3, Restatements2001 and 2000, to the consolidated financial statements of the Company, which are included in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

The
Company did not amend its annual reports on Form 10-K or quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for periods affected by the restatement that ended on or
prior to January 1, 2002, and the financial statements and related financial information contained in such reports should no longer be relied upon.

For
a discussion of events and developments subsequent to April 2, 2002, see the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2002, which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q/A.

NEW WORLD RESTAURANT GROUP, INC.        Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements        (Unaudited)

1.    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the instructions
to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements furnished herein include all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position at April 2, 2002 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three-month periods ended
April 2, 2002 and April 1, 2001. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Interim financial statements are prepared on a basis consistent with the Company's annual
financial statements. Results of operations for the three-month period ended April 2, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for future periods. The
consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2002 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and notes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, which is being filed concurrently with this Form 10-Q/A.

Certain
reclassifications have been made to conform previously reported data to the current presentation.

During
2001, the Company changed its name from New World Coffee-Manhattan Bagel, Inc. to New World Restaurant Group, Inc.

2.    Liquidity

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has sustained substantial losses in recent years, and such losses have continued through unaudited periods in
2003. The Company also has a deficit in stockholders' equity of approximately $60,068,000 as of April 2, 2002, and, as of that date, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current
assets by approximately $160,692,000. During the year ended January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2002, and continuing into 2003, the Company was in violation of certain covenants on the
indenture for the Company's $140 million aggregate principal amount of notes due June 15, 2003 (the "$140 Million Facility"). This could be considered an event of default under
the indenture if the Company was unable to cure the violation within thirty days of receiving written notice from the trustee or holders specifying the default; however, such notice has not been
received as of the date of this filing. If such notice and failure to cure were to occur, the entire amount of the $140 Million Facility could become immediately due and payable. For this reason, the
$140 Million Facility has been classified in current liabilities as of April 2, 2002 and January 1, 2002. In any event, the $140 Million Facility matures on June 15, 2003. These
factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

In
view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon
continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis, to obtain new financing, and to succeed in its
future

operations.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

The
Company has engaged an investment bank to assist it in developing alternatives to rationalize its capital structure. The Company is actively pursuing options to affect the
refinancing or retiring of the $140 Million Facility on or before its maturity on June 15, 2003. Such options currently under consideration by the Company include the sale of all or part of the
Company, which could result in an investment of equity and a refinancing or retirement of the Company's primary debt obligations, and the refinancing of the $140 Million Facility with a new debt
facility, which may entail a new 144A senior note offering.

The
Company has also initiated cost reduction programs that stem primarily from the integration of Einstein into the Company, including supply chain efficiencies and reductions in
overhead as a result of the elimination of duplicative functions and the streamlining of various functional areas. While most of these initiatives commenced in fiscal 2002, the full year effect is not
expected to be realized until 2003 and beyond. In addition, the Company incurred substantial expenses in 2002 related to (1) the payment of unauthorized bonuses to certain members of former
management as well as the internal investigation that ensued and (2) legal and advisory fees related to various efforts to refinance the $140 Million Facility and the Company's revolving line
of credit, which are not anticipated to recur at similar levels in 2003. Although there is no assurance that funding will be available to refinance or retire the $140 Million Facility, the Company
believes that its current business plan, if successfully funded, will improve its operating results and cash flow in the future.

3.    Fiscal Year

Effective for the quarter ended July 3, 2001 and as a result of the Einstein Acquisition, the Company elected to change its fiscal year end to the Tuesday
closest to December 31. The Company's annual accounting period had previously ended on the Sunday closest to December 31. The fiscal year-end dates for 2002 and 2001 are
December 31, 2002 and January 1, 2002 respectively.

4.    Restatements

The Company has determined that certain of its accounting practices in previous years did not reflect the proper application of accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). Accordingly, the Company has restated its financial statements for fiscal 2000, fiscal 2001 (including all quarters), the quarter ended April 2, 2002,
and the opening balances of certain accounts in 2000. For a complete discussion of the restatement adjustments, please see Note 3 to the Company's audited financial statements included in the
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.

Each
issuance of Series F preferred stock in 2001 was evaluated as to the classification of, and accounting for, associated freestanding warrants and additional warrants to
purchase Common Stock, par value $0.001 of the Company as permanent equity or liabilities. Proceeds from the issuance of Series F preferred stock were then allocated using the appropriate
allocation method. In its effective dividend rate calculations, the Company included the impact of increasing rate dividends, issuance costs, the estimated fair value of additional warrants (if not
classified as derivative liabilities), the amortization of any related discount, and the estimated outstanding term of the instrument based on management's intent to refinance a portion of the
original Series F preferred stock. The obligation to issue additional warrants, if classified as a liability is marked to fair value to reflect changes in the underlying Common Stock prices,
management's estimates of the probability of issuance and other factors at each balance sheet date. The agreement among several holders of Series F preferred stock executed in June 2001
that involved the issuance of additional contingent warrants resulted in a substantial modification of the original Series F preferred stock agreement with those holders. As a result, in
accordance with EITF 96-19, the modification was accounted for as an extinguishment of the Series F preferred stock held by such holders. The deemed dividend was computed as the
difference between the fair value of the modified Series F preferred stock and the carrying value of the original Series F preferred stock. In connection with the modification, the
Company determined that the obligation to issue warrants in the future should be classified as a liability. Accordingly, the deemed dividend was increased by the fair value of the additional warrants.
The deemed dividend associated with the extinguishment was $23,883,583 in the quarter ended July 3, 2001.

As
a result of the maximum number of additional warrants that could be issued under the Bond Purchase Agreement (the "Bond Purchase Agreement") dated as of January 17, 2001 by and
among the Company and Greenlight Capital, L.P., Greenlight Capital Qualified, L.P., and Greenlight Capital Offshore, LTD. (collectively, "Greenlight") exceeding the Share Cap (see Note 13), the
Company concluded that the obligation to issue warrants in the future could not be classified within stockholders' equity on the date of issuance. However, as a result of the subsequent extinguishment
of the Series D preferred stock the obligation to issue warrants in the future under the Bond Purchase Agreement did not exceed the Share Cap and, accordingly, the liability established was
reclassified to stockholders' equity in accordance with EITF 00-19. The Company included the impact of the increases in the interest rate associated with the instrument and the
amortization of any related discount in its effective interest rate calculations. The Letter Agreement between Greenlight and the Company executed in June 2001 resulted in a substantial
modification that requires accounting as an extinguishment pursuant to EITF 96-19, primarily due to the additional warrant coverage (the "deficiency warrants") provided in the Letter
Agreement in the event the proceeds from the 7.25% convertible debentures due 2004 of Einstein/Noah Bagel Corporation (the "Einstein Bonds") were not sufficient to retire the Greenlight obligation of
$16,641,566 in the quarter ended July 3, 2001 representing the difference between the fair value of the new debt obligation and the carrying amount to the extinguished debt, plus a fair value
of the estimated deficiency warrants that were recorded as a liability. Additionally, the Greenlight obligation is presented in the financial statements as debt with interest expense thereon recorded
within the statement of operations since its inception. Previously issued 2001 financial statements reflected the obligation as the minority interest through June 19, 2001, with the interest
expense being classified as minority interest expense on the statement of operations.

5.    Acquisitions

On June 19, 2001, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Einstein. Einstein was the largest bagel bakery chain in the United States, with
463 stores, nearly all of which were company-operated. The Einstein Acquisition was made pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, which was entered into by the Company as the successful bidder at an
auction conducted by the United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Arizona, on June 1, 2001 in the Einstein bankruptcy case. The purchase
price was $160,000,000 in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities, subject to adjustment to the extent that Assumed Current Liabilities (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) exceed
$30,000,000.

In
connection with the Einstein Acquisition, the Company incurred approximately $9,722,000 of acquisition costs. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting and accordingly the results of operations of the acquired company have been included in the statement of operations since the acquisition date. The aggregate purchase price of $163,337,000
has been allocated based on the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows:

|                    | Current assets, including cash of $1,846 |                      | $

|                    | Long-term liabilities                    |                      |  
|                    |                                          |                      |

The
purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on management's estimate of their fair market value at the date of acquisition, which was determined
by

---

an
independent appraisal. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company is entitled to a reduction in purchase price to the extent that assumed current liabilities (as defined) exceed
$30,000,000 as of the acquisition date. The accompanying balance sheet as of April 2, 2002 reflects approximately $3,965,000 as due from the Einstein bankruptcy estate. This amount is based
upon the final determination of assumed current liabilities by the independent arbitrator as of the acquisition date, net of certain payments received from the Einstein bankruptcy estate through the
date of these financial statements.

The
following unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations data for the quarter ended April 1, 2001, gives effect to the Einstein Acquisition as if it had occurred as
of the beginning of the pro forma period reported. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations gives effect to purchase accounting adjustments and the financings necessary to
complete the acquisition. The pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of what operating results would have been had the acquisition
actually taken place as of the beginning of the pro forma period reported, and may not be indicative of future operating results. Financial data for the 2002 periods presented are actual results.

6.    Earnings Per Share

In accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, basic earnings per common share amounts ("basic EPS") are computed by dividing net earnings by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding (which include warrants exercisable for a nominal price of $0.01 per share) and exclude any potential dilution. Diluted earnings per common share
amounts assuming dilution ("diluted EPS") are computed by reflecting potential dilution of the Company's common stock equivalents. Common stock equivalents are not reflected in diluted EPS if their
effect would be anti-dilutive. The following table summarizes the weighted average shares used in the basic and diluted EPS computations:

7.    Investment in Debt Securities

Investments in debt securities are reported at fair value which is based upon management's estimate of the present value of amounts expected to be recovered from
the Einstein Bankruptcy Estate for the Company's investment in Einstein debt securities. Unrealized gains and losses from those securities, which are classified as
available-for-sale are reported as unrealized holding gains and losses as a separate component of stockholders' equity, unless a loss is deemed to be other than temporary. At
April 2, 2002, the carrying amount of debt securities approximates their fair value and, accordingly, no unrealized gain or loss has been recorded.

8.    Recent Pronouncements

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations
("SFAS 141"), and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be
accounted for using the purchase method. The adoption of SFAS No. 141 had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The
Company has adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective January 1, 2002. SFAS 142 provides that goodwill and other indefinite-lived
intangibles should not be amortized, but be subject to an annual assessment for impairment, or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment, through a comparison of fair value to its
carrying amount. The two-step approach to assess its goodwill impairment requires that the Company first compare the estimated fair value of each reporting unit that houses goodwill to the
carrying amount of the unit's assets and liabilities, including its goodwill and intangible assets. If the fair value of the reporting unit is below its carrying amount, then the second step of the
impairment test is performed, in which the current fair value of the unit's assets and liabilities will determine the current implied fair value of the unit's goodwill.

The
Company completed step one of both the transitional and annual impairment tests for its only reporting unit with goodwill and has completed the transitional and annual impairment
tests on indefinite-lived intangibles. The Company engaged an independent valuation expert to perform these analyses. The transitional and annual impairment analyses of goodwill indicated that the
fair value of the Manhattan Bagel Company reporting unit as of January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2002 exceeded its carrying value. Thus, the associated goodwill as of January 1,
2002 and December 31, 2002 was not impaired, and the second step of the impairment tests was not required. Additionally, the transitional and annual impairment analyses for the Company's
indefinite-lived intangibles (trademarks) indicated that, in each instance, their respective fair values exceeded their carrying values as of January 1, 2002 and December 31, 2002.

Goodwill
represents the excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired in the acquisition of Manhattan Bagel Company.

In
2002, goodwill and indefinite-lived trademarks are not amortized in accordance with SFAS 142 and other intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis
consistent with the associated estimated future cash flows. The following consolidated statements of operations data for the quarters

ended
April 2, 2002 and April 1, 2001 reflects the adjustment to net loss, net loss available to common stockholders and basic earnings per share resulting from the implementation of
SFAS 142.

In
June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS 143 addresses accounting and reporting for obligations associated with
the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated retirement costs. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company is
currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this new standard, although it does not expect it to affect its consolidated financial statements.

In
April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement 13, and Technical Corrections, which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002, with early application encouraged. This Statement rescinds SFAS 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishments of Debt, and includes
other modifications to existing statements, that are not applicable to the Company. SFAS 4 required the reporting of gains or losses associated with the extinguishments of debt be classified as an
extraordinary item on the income statement. SFAS 145 rescinds that classification unless the extinguishment is deemed both unusual and
infrequent in nature as defined in APB 30. The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 145, although there was no impact.

In
June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, which is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated
after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. This statement requires a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity to be recognized at fair value in the
period in which the liability is incurred, except for liabilities for one-time termination benefits requiring future employee service, which is to be

17

---

recognized
ratably over the remaining service period. The Company early-implemented SFAS No. 146 upon its issuance in fiscal 2002.

In
December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosure. This statement requires all entities with
stock-based employee compensation arrangements to provide additional disclosures in their summary of significant accounting policies note. For entities that use the intrinsic value method of APB 25,
to account for employee stock compensation, their accounting policies note should include a tabular presentation of pro forma net income and earnings per share using the fair value method. This
statement also permits entities changing to the fair value method of accounting for employee stock compensation to choose from one of three transition methodsthe prospective method, the
modified prospective method, or the retroactive restatement method. The main provisions of this statement are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The Company currently
has no intention to change to the fair value method to account for employee stock-based compensation; however, the disclosure provisions will be implemented within the Company's fiscal 2002 financial
statements.

The
Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe that the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial
statements.

10.    Contingencies

The company is subject to claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of its business, including claims by its franchisees. The Company does not believe that
an adverse outcome in any currently pending or threatened matter, other than described below, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations or financial
condition.

On April 3, 2002, the Company was notified by the Securities and Exchange Commission that the Commission is conducting an investigation into the resignation of the Company's
former Chairman, R. Ramin Kamfar, and the termination for cause of its former Chief Financial Officer, Jerold Novack, and the delay in filing the Company's Form 10-K for 2001. The
Company is cooperating fully with the investigation. The Company is also cooperating fully with a recent Department of Justice inquiry relating to these issues. Further, several of the Company's
former and present officers and directors have requested that the Company advance reasonable legal expense on their respective behalf to the extent any of them is or has been requested to provide
information to the Commission in connection with its investigation. The Company is fulfilling its obligations as required by applicable law and the Company's By-Laws.

On
July 31, 2002, Tristan Goldstein, a former store manager, and Valerie Bankhordar, a current store manager, filed a purported class action complaint against Einstein in the
Superior Court for the State of California, County of San Francisco. The plaintiffs allege that Noah's failed to pay overtime wages to managers and assistant managers of its California stores, whom it
is alleged were improperly designated as exempt employees in violation of California and Business Profession Code Section 17200. As a result of subsequent communications regarding the
circumstances under which the Company purchased Einstein out of bankruptcy, the plaintiffs filed a first amended complaint disclaiming back wages for the period prior to June 19, 2001. However,
the first amended complaint added as defendants certain former directors and officers of Einstein. The first amended complaint also added a second cause of action seeking to invalidate releases
obtained from Noah's assistant managers pursuant to the settlement of a Department of Labor investigation. The Company filed a demurrer to the first amended complaint, which the plaintiffs opposed.
Subsequent to the filing of that demurrer, the Company procured a dismissal without prejudice of the claims brought against Paul Murphy, the only individual defendant the Company employed subsequent
to its acquisition of Einstein. The plaintiffs subsequently stipulated to the severance of the claims against the Company and those against the remaining individual defendants. The stipulation
provides that the plaintiffs will file separate second amended complaints against the Company and against the remaining individual defendants. As a result, the Company's demurrer will be taken off
calendar. The Company will have thirty days from the date of the filing of the second amended complaint to refile the Company's demurrer.

On
March 31, 2003, Jerold E. Novack, our former Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and shareholder, filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New
Jersey against the Company, Anthony D. Wedo, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and William J. Nimmo, a member of our Board of Directors. The complaint purports to state claims for breach of
plaintiff's employment contract with the Company, breach of the Company's fiduciary duties to plaintiff, defamation, and violation of the New Jersey Conscientious Employee Protection Act, and in
addition seeks a declaration that the Company's termination of plaintiff "for cause" was invalid. As a basis for his purported claims, plaintiff alleges that the Company wrongfully contended certain
bonuses he received were unauthorized and that he was wrongfully terminated for cause in order to deny him certain other benefits allegedly owed under his employment agreement. Furthermore, plaintiff
asserts
that he was defamed by certain of defendants' public statements regarding his dismissal and also that his termination was in retaliation for certain actions he believes were protected by the New
Jersey Conscientious Employee Protection Act. The Company intends to vigorously oppose plaintiff's purported claims. The Company was served with the complaint on May 2, 2003 and have not yet
answered or otherwise responded to it.

In
July 2002, the New Jersey Division of Taxation entered judgment in the amount of $5,744,902, plus costs, against Manhattan Bagel Construction Company, a wholly owned subsidiary
of Manhattan Bagel Company. This judgment represents amounts for corporate income taxes for the period from 1996 to 2000, and sales and use taxes for the period from 1995 to 1997. At that same time,
the Division of Taxation provided Manhattan Bagel Construction Company with a Notice and Demand for Payment

19

---

of
Tax in the additional amount of $130,200, for corporate income taxes and sales and use taxes for the period from October 2001 through June 2002. Manhattan Bagel Construction Company
ceased operations in or about early 1997, and has existed since that time only as a non-operating entity with no assets. Therefore, the Company is currently working with the New Jersey
Division of Taxation to have all tax assessments for the period after Manhattan Bagel Construction Company ceased operations removed, and that portion of the judgment deemed satisfied. With regard to
taxes imposed for the period prior to early 1997, the Company believes those amounts are barred from being asserted against Manhattan Bagel Company, to the extent they otherwise could have been,
because they were not asserted in Manhattan Bagel Company's November 1997 bankruptcy proceeding.

On
February 23, 2000, New World Coffee of Forest Hills, Inc., one of the Company's franchisees, filed a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association
(American Arbitration Association, New York, New York, Case No. 13-114-237-00) against the Company alleging
fraudulent inducement and violations of New York General Business Law Article 33. The franchisee seeks damages in the amount of $750,000. The Company has asserted a counterclaim in the
arbitration seeking amounts owed under the franchisee's franchise agreement and monies owed for goods purchased by the franchisee in the amount of $200,000. An arbitrator has been selected and
document exchange is complete. Hearings were scheduled for June 2002 but have been postponed by order of the arbitrator.

On
October 28, 2002, Sansim Patel, Inc., a subfranchisee of Manhattan Bagel Company, filed suit against Manhattan Bagel Company, the master franchisee, and others in Orange
County (Orlando, Florida). The plaintiff alleges claims of civil conspiracy and unjust enrichment against Manhattan Bagel Company and seeks rescission of its franchise agreement with Manhattan Bagel
Company. The plaintiff also seeks damages in an unspecified amount. In December 2002, the Company filed a motion to dismiss all of the claims asserted against the Company by the plaintiff,
based in part on a general release the plaintiff had previously executed in favor of Manhattan Bagel Company. That motion remains pending with the Court. However, on March 18, 2003, default
judgments were obtained against the other named defendants.

On
March 17, 2003, Jason and Andrew Gennusa, former employees of the Company and founders of Manhattan Bagel Company, filed suit against the Company in the Superior Court of New
Jersey, Monmouth County. As the founders of Manhattan Bagel Company, the plaintiffs claim to be reproducing the "original formula" Manhattan Bagel dough, and selling it to franchisees at a competitive
price. Their complaint seeks a judgment declaring that their production and sale of this bagel dough to franchisees does not violate various non-competition covenants and confidentiality
agreements they previously entered into with the Company. Furthermore, the plaintiffs seek a declaration that the "original recipe" bagel dough they manufacture is not a trade secret of the Company,
and that their manufacture and sale of the dough is not in violation of intellectual property law. The Company has not yet answered or otherwise responded to plaintiffs' complaint.

On
April 7, 2003, General Electric Capital Corp. filed an action in the Supreme Court for the State of New York, County of New York, against the Company and its franchisee,
captionedGeneral Electric Captial Corp. v. New World Coffee/Manhattan Bagels, Inc. et al.In its complaint, plaintiff asserts that it entered
into certain equipment lease agreements with the Company on April 18, 2001, and with the franchisee on February 26, 2001, upon which the Company and its franchisee subsequently
defaulted. As a result of those alleged defaults, plaintiff purports to state claims against defendants for breach of contract, conversion, unjust enrichment, foreclosure of security interest, and
replevin, and demands damages from defendants, jointly and severally, in the total specified amount of $118,555.49, plus late charges, taxes, interest, costs and attorneys' fees. The Company has not
yet answered or otherwise responded to plaintiff's complaint.

On
December 28, 2001, Robert Higgs, one of the Company's franchisees, filed a complaint against the Company and its officers and agents in New Jersey
(Superior Court of New Jersey, Case No. OCN-L-2153-99) alleging breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duties and
tortuous interference with contract and business opportunities. The complaint was subsequently withdrawn by the franchisee without prejudice. In February 2002, the franchisee filed a new
complaint against the Company and its officers and agents alleging breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duties, tortuous interference with contract and business opportunities, and violations of New
Jersey's franchise law. The franchisee seeks damages in an unspecified amount, punitive damages, costs and attorneys' fees. The Company moved to dismiss all of the claims in the new complaint. The
court dismissed the breach of fiduciary duty claims and one of the breach of contract claims. Discovery requests have been served by the Company.

Given
the early stage of these matters, the Company cannot predict their outcome, and the Company cannot assure you that it will not be subject to regulatory sanctions, civil penalties
and/or claims for monetary damages and other relief that may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, prospects and financial condition.

Special
Situations Fund, L.P., Special Situations Cayman Fund, L.P. and Special Situations Private Equity Fund, L.P., holders of the Company's Series F Preferred stock, had
notified the Company that they believe that material misrepresentations were made to them in June 2001 in connection with their purchase of the Company's stock. Special Situations filed a
complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York regarding this claim. Special Situations alleged various contractual and tort claims against the Company, as well as
Ramin Kamfar, the former Chairman of the Board of Directors, Jerold Novack, the former Chief Financial Officer, and Greenlight, another holder of the Company's Series F preferred stock. Special
Situations sought, among other relief, damages in the amount of at least $5,166,000 and the equitable remedy of rescission of its purchase of stock. Prior to responding to Special Situations'
complaint, the Company and Special Situations entered into a settlement agreement and release on April 29, 2003, pursuant to which the Company agreed to settle Special Situations' claims
against the Company and its present and former officers, directors, agents and other representatives, and Special Situations agreed to release those entities and individuals, in exchange for the
Company's payment to Special Situations of $176,000. A Notice of Voluntary Withdrawal was filed by Special Situations with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on
May 5, 2003.

On
February 28, 2003, the Company's former insurance broker of record filed suit in Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange, against the Company and its
subsidiaries, alleging wrongful termination of the Company's brokerage contract with plaintiff, Pension & Benefit Insurance Services, Inc. ("PBIS"), which deprived PBIS of brokerage
commissions. PBIS's complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, reasonable value of services, intentional interference with prospective advantage and negligent interference with prospective
advantages. Plaintiff seeks $500,000 in consequential damages and $20 million in punitive damages. Prior to responding to PBIS's complaint, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with
PBIS on April 2, 2003. As consideration for PBIS's agreement to settle and dismiss this matter, we agreed to list PBIS as the Company's insurance broker of record until at least the end of
2003. A Request for Dismissal of the suit was filed by PBIS with the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange on April 9, 2003.

11.    Fixed Fee Distribution Agreement

The Company maintained a fixed fee distribution agreement with a national distribution company (distributor) whereby the distributor supplied substantially all
products for resale in the Company's company-operated restaurant locations. In addition, the Company maintained a separate fixed fee distribution agreement with the distributor for delivery of certain
proprietary products to its franchised locations. Effective February 20, 2002, the Company entered into Mutual Termination Agreements with the distributor which provided for the termination of
each of the fixed fee distribution agreements

21

---

effective
August 2, 2002. Pursuant to the restated agreement, the distributor was required to provide distribution services to all locations through August 2, 2002, which date was
extended until December 2002. As a part of the agreement, the Company was required to pay the distributor $12,000,000, representing a portion of the unamortized $5,000,000 investment made by
the distributor at the inception of the original agreement and a reduced amount of outstanding trade payables and other previously accrued charges. The Company recorded a reduction to general and
administrative expense of $2,750,000 in the quarter ended December 31, 2002 as the carrying amount of the associated liabilities, at the time the agreement concluded in December 2002,
exceeded the payments made under this agreement.

As
of November 2002, the Company had replaced the national distributor with six regional custom distributors to its Company-operated and franchised locations.

12.    Revolving Line of Credit

On January 18, 2002, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the "loan agreement") with a lender which provided for a $7,500,000 Revolving
Loan Facility (the "facility"). The revolving loan facility was secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. The underlying loan agreement provided for periodic borrowings based upon
availability as calculated pursuant to the loan agreement. In addition, the loan agreement required the Company to meet certain financial covenants and placed restrictions on the Company's ability to
obtain additional borrowings and to enter into certain capital transactions. The Company did not use or draw funds under the facility. Nevertheless, on March 25, 2002, the lender notified the
Company that the Company was in default under certain terms and conditions of the loan agreement. As the result of these defaults, the Company was unable to obtain advances under the revolving loan
facility. On May 30, 2002, the Company paid the lender $175,000 in full satisfaction of amounts due under the loan agreement.

On
May 30, 2002, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with one of the Company's principal stockholders, which provides for a $7,500,000 revolving loan facility.
The facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. At the time the Company entered into this facility, the Company terminated its prior revolving loan facility. Borrowings under the
facility bore interest at
the rate of 11% per annum until February 2003. The facility originally expired on March 31, 2003. In February of 2003, the Company extended the maturity of the revolving loan facility to
June 1, 2003. From February 1, 2003 to June 1, 2003, the facility will bear interest at the rate of 13%.

13.    Derivative Instruments

Effective January 1, 2000, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS 133 requires
that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet at their fair value. Changes in the fair values of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS 133 are recognized
through earnings. In conjunction with certain debt and preferred stock issuances in 2000 and 2001, the Company issued freestanding warrants and rights to receive additional warrants based either on
the passage of time or upon the occurrence (or "non-occurrence") of certain contingent future events ("contingently-issuable warrants"). The Company determined that certain of these
freestanding warrants, for a period of time in 2001, and contingently-issuable warrants could not be classified within stockholders' equity based on the application of the criteria in EITF Issue
00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock, and accordingly have classified those warrants as a liability in the
balance sheet. Further, those warrants classified as a liability are subject to the provisions of SFAS 133, including the requirement to adjust the recorded amount of the warrants to fair value
at each balance sheet date, with changes in fair value being recognized in earnings.

22

---

Issued
$0.01 warrants classified as liabilities, if any, are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair value, as determined periodically based on quoted market prices of the
underlying common stock. As of April 2, 2002 and January 1, 2002, there were no issued warrants classified as liabilities. Contingently-issuable $0.01 warrants classified as liabilities
are also recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices of the underlying common stock and considering the probability of issuance, the Company's assessments of the probability of refinancing
its debt, and other pertinent factors. Changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities are recorded within the statement of operations. If reclassification from liability to permanent equity is
required under EITF 00-19, prior to reclassification the liability is adjusted to fair value, with the change recorded in cumulative change in derivative fair value within the statement of
operations. In the event of reclassification from permanent equity to liability, the related warrants are adjusted to fair value, with the change recorded in additional
paid-in-capital.

The
Company's 2001 restated financial statements reflect the Company's systematic evaluation of the maximum potential issuance of shares possible at each time an instrument with
associated warrants is issued (taking into consideration the terms of existing contractual agreements) as compared to the number of authorized shares of Common Stock at the dates of issuance of each
instrument. The maximum number of authorized shares of Common Stock was 50,000,000 in 2000 and from January 1, 2001 to September 25, 2001. Pursuant to a vote held at a special meeting of
the Company's shareholders
on September 20, 2001, the maximum number of authorized shares of Common Stock was increased, effective September 26, 2001, to 150,000,000 shares. On June 19, 2001, the issued
freestanding warrants exceeded the authorized number of shares and, accordingly, some of the warrants issued on that date were classified as liabilities, in accordance with the method described below,
until the increase in authorized shares was approved in September 2001, at which time such issued, freestanding warrants were reclassified as permanent equity. In June 2001, certain of
the Series F preferred stock holders agreed not to exercise their warrants if, in doing so, the authorized number of shares remaining after exercise by the holders of the Series F
preferred stock was not sufficient to permit warrants associated with the $140 Million Facility to be exercised. To the extent that the number of freestanding warrants and the maximum number of
additional warrants that could potentially be issued in the future exceed the maximum number of authorized shares (the "Share Cap") at the time the debt or preferred stock instrument is issued, the
Company determines the classification of, and accounting for, the freestanding and additional warrants as follows: (1) freestanding warrants (those that are immediately exercisable) are
considered first for equity treatment, to the extent of the maximum number of authorized shares; (2) among various outstanding instruments, those with the earlier issuance dates are considered
first for equity treatment; and (3) contractual priorities are considered where applicable.

14.    Additional Paid-In Capital

Additional paid-in capital increased from $80.2 million as of January 1, 2002, to $81.3 million as of April 2, 2002 due to
the issuance of additional warrants under the terms of the Series F preferred stock and the $140 Million Facility agreements, that had previously been classified as derivative liabilities in
accordance with the policy outlined in Note 13.

15.    Reorganization and Integration

During the quarter ended July 3, 2001, the Company implemented a plan to consolidate the two dough manufacturing facilities on the West Coast, eliminate
duplicative labor lines of assembly, and terminate certain lease obligations inclusive of several company-operated locations. When initiated the restructuring plan was expected to take approximately
one year to complete. The Company recorded a $4.4 million charge associated with this restructuring plan. Approximately $1.0 million of this charge represented a write-off of
the equipment and leasehold improvements no longer usable by the Company.

The
following table displays the 2002 activity and balances of the restructuring accrual account.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company is a leader in the quick casual segment of the restaurant industry and the largest operator of bagel bakeries in the United States. With 747 locations
in 32 states, the Company operates and licenses locations primarily under the Einstein Bros. and Noah's brand names and franchise locations primarily under the Manhattan and Chesapeake brand names.
The Company's locations specialize in high-quality foods for breakfast and lunch, including fresh baked goods, made-to-order sandwiches on a variety of breads and
bagels, soups, salads, desserts, premium coffees and other cafe beverages, and offer a cafe experience with a neighborhood emphasis. As of December 31, 2002, the Company's retail system
consisted of 460
company-operated locations and 261 franchised and 26 licensed locations. The Company also operates dough production and coffee roasting facilities.

On
June 19, 2001, the Company purchased (the "Einstein Acquisition") substantially all of the assets of Einstein/Noah Bagel Corp. and its majority-owned subsidiary, Einstein/Noah
Bagel Partners, L.P. (collectively, "Einstein"). Einstein was the largest bagel bakery chain in the United States, with 458 stores, nearly all of which were company-operated. The Einstein Acquisition
was made pursuant to an asset purchase agreement entered into by us as the successful bidder at an auction conducted by the United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Arizona, on June 1, 2001,
in the Einstein bankruptcy case. The purchase price was $160 million in cash plus the assumption of certain liabilities, subject to adjustment in the event that Assumed Current Liabilities (as
defined under the asset purchase agreement) exceed $30 million. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.

In
January and March 2001, the Company issued Series F preferred stock and warrants to purchase its Common Stock and equity in a newly formed affiliate, Greenlight New
World, L.L.C. ("GNW"). The aggregate net proceeds of those financings of approximately $23.7 million were used to purchase Einstein bonds and pay related costs. In June 2001, the Company
issued additional Series F preferred stock and warrants to purchase its Common Stock for aggregate net proceeds of $22.7 million, which were used to fund a portion of the purchase price
of the Einstein Acquisition. In January 2001 the Company entered into a Bond Purchase Agreement with Greenlight Capital, L.P., Greenlight Qualified Capital, L.P. and Greenlight Capital
Offshore, Ltd. (collectively, "Greenlight"). Pursuant to the agreement, Greenlight formed a limited liability company and contributed $10.0 million

24

---

to
be utilized for the purchase of Einstein bonds. The Company consolidated the limited liability company as debt given the terms of the agreement. In June 2001, the Company issued
$140 million of Senior Increasing Rate Notes due 2003 (the "$140 Million Facility") and warrants to purchase its Common Stock. The net proceeds of approximately $122.4 million were used
to fund a portion of the purchase price of the Einstein Acquisition, to repay then-outstanding bank debt and for general working capital purposes. Also in June 2001, the Company
obtained a $35 million asset-backed loan to a non-restricted subsidiary, New World EnbcDeb Corp., for net proceeds of $32.2 million, which were used to fund a portion of the
purchase price of the Einstein Acquisition.

As
a result of the Einstein Acquisition and the related financing transactions, management believes that period-to-period comparisons of the Company's operating
results are not necessarily indicative of, and should not be relied upon as an indication of, future performance.

Unauthorized
bonus payments in the aggregate amount of $3.5 million were made to certain former executive officers and former employees. A portion of those payments (approximately
$1.0 million) was made in the third quarter of the Company's fiscal year ended January 1, 2002 and the balance (approximately $2.5 million) in the first quarter ended
April 2, 2002. All of these payments were originally recorded in the Company's financial statements in the second and third quarters of fiscal
2001 as part of the acquisition costs associated with the Einstein Acquisition and as a restructuring charge. The Company has revised the results for those quarters so as to reverse that treatment.
The aggregate of such payments (including $1.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2001 and $2.5 million in Q1 2002) has been recorded as general and administrative expense. An
aggregate of $2.5 million of such payments was offset against payments to be made in connection with the separation of certain officers and employees from the Company. With respect to that
portion of the unauthorized payments that has not been repaid or offset plus certain other unauthorized payments that have not been recovered of $0.2 million, or an aggregate of
$1.2 million, the Company has recorded a receivable from the former officer. Based on its evaluation of the collectibility of this amount, the Company has recorded an allowance for
uncollectible receivable.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contain information that is pertinent to management's discussion and
analysis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.

The
Company believes the following critical accounting policies involve additional management judgment due to the sensitivity of the methods, assumptions, and estimates necessary in
determining the related asset and liability amounts.

Revenue Recognition

Manufacturing revenues are recognized upon shipment to customers. Retail sales are recognized when payment is tendered at the point of sale. Pursuant to the
franchise agreements, franchisees are generally required to pay an initial franchise fee and a monthly royalty payment equal to a percentage of the franchisees' gross sales. Initial franchise fees are
recognized as revenue when the Company performs substantially all of its initial services as required by the franchise agreement. Royalty fees from franchisees are accrued each month pursuant to the
franchise agreements. Royalty income and initial franchise fees are included in franchise revenues.

25

---

Accounts Receivable

The majority of the Company's accounts receivable are due from the Company's franchisees. Accounts receivable are due within 15 to 30 days and are stated
at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by
considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, previous loss history, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation to us, and the
condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are
credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Deferred Tax Assets

The Company has recorded a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards. The Company limited the amount of
tax benefits recognizable based on an evaluation of the benefits that are expected to be ultimately realized. An adjustment to income could be required if the Company determined it could realize these
deferred tax assets in excess of the net recorded amount.

Investment in Debt Securities

Investment in debt securities includes 7.25% Convertible Debentures due 2004 of Einstein/Noah Bagel Corp., which are classified as available for sale securities,
and are recorded at fair value. Fair value is based on most recent quoted market prices or, beginning in 2001 due to developments in the bankruptcy auction pursuant to Section 363 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code of Einstein/Noah Bagel Corp., the estimated value of such debt securities realizable from the proceeds of the bankruptcy estate of Einstein/Noah Bagel Corp.

Goodwill, Trademarks and Other Intangibles

The Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assts, effective January 2, 2002. SFAS 142 provides that goodwill and other
indefinite-lived intangibles should not be amortized, but be subject to an annual assessment for impairment, or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment, through a comparison of
fair value to its carrying amount. The two-step approach to assess its goodwill impairment requires that the Company first compare the estimated fair value of each reporting unit that
houses goodwill to the carrying amount of the unit's assets and liabilities, including its goodwill and intangible assets. If the fair value of the reporting unit is below its carrying amount, then
the second step of the impairment test is performed, in which the current fair value of the unit's assets and liabilities will determine the current implied fair value of the unit's goodwill.

In
conducting its impairment analyses, the Company utilized independent valuation experts to perform the analyses and tests of the Company's indefinite lived assets with respect to its
reporting units. The test methods employed involved assumptions concerning useful lives of intangible assets, interest and discount rates growth projections and other assumptions of future business
conditions. The assumptions employed were based on management's judgment using internal and external data. The Company also utilized independent valuation experts to assist it in determining useful
lives for its intangibles other than goodwill including the assessment that its Einstein trademark has an indefinite useful life. Its determination that this trademark, as well as its other trademarks
have indefinite useful lives, is based on the fact that there are no legal, regulatory, competitive or other factors, which limit their useful lives.

The
transitional and annual impairment analyses of goodwill conducted by us indicated that the fair value of the Manhattan Bagel Company reporting unit (the only reporting unit with
goodwill) as of December 31, 2002 and January 1, 2002 exceeded its carrying value. Thus, the associated goodwill on

26

---

the
Company's consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2002 and January 1, 2002 was not impaired, and the second step of the impairment tests was not required. Additionally, the
transitional and annual impairment analyses for the Company's indefinite-lived intangibles (trademarks) indicated that, in each instance, their respective fair values exceeded their carrying values as
of December 31, 2002 and January 1, 2002.

Derivative Instruments

See Note 13Derivative Instruments

Interest and Dividends

Interest expense and dividends on the $140 Million Facility and Series F preferred stock, respectively, is determined, in part, by assumptions related to
expected maturity of such instruments. These assumptions are reviewed and adjusted as the Company's circumstances change.

Fiscal Quarter Ended April 2, 2002 Compared to Fiscal Quarter Ended April 1, 2001

Revenues

Total revenues increased to $97.6 million for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 from $10.1 million for the comparable 2001 period. The
increase in revenues was attributable to additional revenues from the Einstein Bros. and Noah's brands acquired in June 2001. Retail sales increased to $90.2 million or 92.4% of total
revenues for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 from $3.7 million or 36.5% of total revenues for the comparable 2001 period. The increase was attributable to the addition of 457
company-operated stores that were acquired as the result of the Einstein Acquisition in June 2001. Manufacturing revenues increased to $6.1 million or 6.3% of total revenues for the
fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 from $4.7 million or 47.1% of total revenues for the comparable 2001 period. The increase in manufacturing revenues results from the inclusion of
manufacturing revenues associated with manufacturing facilities acquired as the result of the Einstein Acquisition in June 2001 offset by a decrease resulting from a lower franchise store base
in comparison to prior year. Franchise related revenues decreased 19.9% to $1.3 million or 1.4% of total revenues for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 from $1.7 million or
16.4% of total revenues for the comparable 2001 period. The decrease in franchise related revenues reflects a lower average franchise store base in the 2002 period.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of sales as a percentage of related retail and manufacturing sales remained constant at 82.7% for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 and was 82.6%
for the quarter ended April 1, 2001.

General
and administrative expenses increased to $13.3 million or 13.6% of total revenues for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 from $2.4 million or 23.4% of
revenue for the comparable 2001 period. The increase is attributable to additional general and administrative costs resulting from the Einstein acquisition. In addition, general and administrative
expenses for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 include approximately $2.6 million (inclusive of related payroll tax expenses) in connection with the unauthorized bonus payments to
former officers and employees of the Company. Such unauthorized bonuses were offset against payments to be made in connection with the separation of certain officers and employees of the Company. The
2002 period also includes legal expenses of approximately $1.7 million incurred in connection with the Company's voluntary internal investigation of the unauthorized bonus payments.

Depreciation
and amortization expenses increased to $6.1 million or 6.2% of total revenues for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 from $0.5 million or 5.1% of
total revenues for the comparable 2001 period. The increase was primarily attributable to depreciation on assets acquired in the Einstein

27

---

acquisition
partially offset by the implementation of SFAS 142 whereby goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives are no longer required to be amortized.

Interest
expense, net for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 increased to $12.3 million from $0.9 million for the comparable 2001 period. The increase was
primarily the result of interest and related costs incurred on debt utilized to finance the Einstein Acquisition.

The
cumulative change in the fair value of derivatives was $13.6 million for the quarter ended April 2, 2002. The expense represents the increase in the fair value of
warrants classified as a derivative liability based on the underlying fair value of common stock to which they are indexed and, for contingently-issuable warrants classified as a derivative liability,
the estimated probability of issuance and other pertinent factors.

Provision
for income taxes was $0 for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 compared to $0.2 million for the comparable 2001 period. The 2002 provision reflects the
Company's current tax position and management's assessment of the potential future realization of deferred tax assets.

Net
loss for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 was $27.4 million compared to a net loss of $0.6 million for the comparable 2001 period. The increase in net loss
is primarily the result of the cumulative change in the fair value of derivatives, as discussed above, interest expense incurred in the fiscal quarter 2002 relating to debt incurred to finance the
Einstein Acquisition as well as the increase in general and administrative expenses.

Supplemental Unaudited Analysis of the Fiscal Quarter Ended April 2, 2002 to the Pro Forma Fiscal Quarter Ended April 1, 2001

The following unaudited pro forma financial data for the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2001 gives effect to the Einstein Acquisition as if it had occurred
as of the beginning of the period reported. All of the following unaudited pro forma financial data gives effect to purchase accounting adjustments necessary to reflect the Einstein Acquisition. These
pro forma results have been prepared for the purpose of supplementary analysis only in order to assist in the evaluation of changes and trends in the Company's business and do not purport to be
indicative of what operating results would have been had the acquisition actually taken place as of the beginning of the period reported, and may not be indicative of future operating results.
Financial data for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 are actual results.

Revenues

Total revenues declined 19.9% to $97.6 million for the quarter ended April 2, 2002 from pro forma total revenues of $121.8 million in the
fiscal 2001 period. The decline is primarily attributable to the differences in the fiscal calendar as presented above.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales expressed as a percentage of the related retail and manufacturing sales decreased to 82.7% for the quarter ended April 2, 2002 from pro forma
cost of sales of 84.3% for the 2001 period. The decrease is the result of management's decision to close under-performing company-operated stores.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased 9.6% to $13.3 million for the quarter ended April 2, 2002 compared to pro forma general and
administrative expenses of $12.1 million for the fiscal 2001 period. General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended April 2, 2002 include charges of approximately
$2.6 million (inclusive of related payroll tax expenses) in connection with the unauthorized bonus payments to certain former officers and employees. The 2002 period also includes legal
expenses of approximately $1.7 million incurred in connection with the voluntary internal investigation of the unauthorized bonus payments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At April 2, 2002, the Company had a working capital deficit of $160.7 million compared to a working capital deficit at January 1, 2002 of
$150.0 million. The working capital deficit is due primarily to the classification of the $140 Million Facility as a current liability. The $140 Million Facility matures on June 15,
2003. The Indenture to the $140 Million Facility contains certain restrictive covenants, including certain financial covenants that are required to be measured on an annual basis, such as minimum
consolidated cash flow and capital expenditures, each defined in the Indenture. The Company has violated certain of these covenants, which could trigger an event of default if the Company was to
receive a written notice of default from the trustee or holders that was not cured in 30 days. Although no notice of default has been received, the amounts outstanding under the $140 Million
Facility have been classified as current for all periods presented. The Company has not obtained waivers from the trustee or holders.

The
increase in the working capital deficit of $10.7 million is primarily due to a change in payment terms for a major vendor and collateralization of bonds.

The
Company had net cash used in operating activities of $11.0 million for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 compared with net cash used in operating activities of
$1.4 million for the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2001. The increase in cash used in operating activities was attributable to the impact of the Einstein Acquisition as well as changes
in operating assets and liabilities, specifically due to the
acceleration of payments related to the termination of the distribution agreement, the expense related to the unauthorized bonuses and the internal investigation as well as an increase in prepaid
expenses related to new insurance policies.

The
Company had net cash provided by investing activities of $0.7 million for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 compared with net cash used in investing activities of
$26.5 million for the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2001. During 2001, cash used in investing activities was attributable to the Company's investment in debt securities.

The
Company had $0.3 million net cash used in financing activities for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2002 compared with net cash provided by financing activities of
$29.8 million for the fiscal

29

---

quarter
ended April 1, 2001. During 2001, cash provided by financing activities relates to the issuance of Series F Preferred Stock and proceeds from the issuance of the Greenlight
Obligation.

On
May 30, 2002, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with BET Associates, L.P. ("BET"), one of the Company's principal stockholders, which provides for a
$7.5 million revolving loan facility. The facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the rate of 11% per annum. The
facility was to expire on March 31, 2003. In February 2003, the Company and BET executed an amendment to the facility to extend the maturity of the facility to June 1, 2003. From
February 1, 2003 to June 1, 2003, the facility will bear interest at the rate of 13% per annum. BET will receive an extension fee of $187,500 in connection with the amendment, payable at
maturity, and an additional fee of $112,500 if the facility is not paid in full by June 2, 2003. At the time that the Company entered into this facility, the prior revolving loan facility with
Foothill Capital was terminated.

On
June 19, 2001, the Company consummated a private placement of 140,000 units consisting of $140 million of Senior Increasing Rate Notes due 2003 with detachable warrants
for the purchase of 13.7 million shares of the Company's Common Stock, exercisable at $0.01 per share. The proceeds, net of discount and related offering expenses, were $122.4 million.
The proceeds were utilized to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Einstein Acquisition, to repay the Company's then-existing bank debt and for general working capital purposes.
The $140 Million Facility initially bore interest at 13.00% per annum increasing by 100 basis points each quarter commencing September 15, 2001 to a maximum of 18.00%. In addition, since the
Company has not completed a registered exchange offer for the $140 Million Facility, the Company began paying additional interest on the $140 Million Facility on November 17, 2001 at the rate
of 0.25% per annum increasing by 0.25% each 90 days that such default continues up to a maximum rate of additional interest of 1% per annum.

On
June 19, 2001, the Company obtained a $35 million asset-backed secured loan to its wholly owned non-restricted subsidiary, New World EnbcDeb Corp.
("EnbcDeb Corp."). The proceeds, net of discount and related offering expenses, were $32.2 million. The proceeds were utilized to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Einstein
Acquisition. The asset-backed loan, for which EnbcDeb Corp. issued increasing rate notes (the "EnbcDeb Notes"), is secured by Einstein bonds owned by EnbcDeb Corp. The EnbcDeb Notes matured on
June 15, 2002. Because EnbcDeb Corp. is a non-restricted subsidiary, a default on the EnbcDeb Notes does not result in a default under the Notes or the Company's revolving loan
facility. Interest on the EnbcDeb Notes initially accrues at the rate of 14% per annum, increasing by 0.35% on the fifteenth day of each month following issuance, plus 2% per annum penalty on overdue
amounts. As previously mentioned, since the EnbcDeb Notes matured on June 15, 2002, the additional 2% penalty is effective as a result of the default. Interest is payable on the fifteenth day
of every month and may be paid in kind at the Company's option. As of April 2, 2002, the EnbcDeb Notes had a carrying value of $37.6 million. The Company must apply all proceeds relating
to the Einstein bonds to the repayment of the EnbcDeb Notes. To the extent that the proceeds received are insufficient to repay the EnbcDeb Notes in full, the holders of the EnbcDeb Notes will have
the option to require the Company to issue them preferred stock having a redemption value equal to the deficiency. If the amount of such deficiency is less than $5.0 million, then the preferred
stock will be entitled to an annual cash dividend equal to 17% per annum, increasing 100 basis points per month until the preferred stock is redeemed, and the Company will be required to issue
warrants to purchase 5% of its fully diluted Common Stock. If the amount of the deficiency is $5.0 million or greater, then the preferred stock will be entitled to an annual cash dividend equal
to 18% per annum, increasing 100 basis points per month until the preferred stock is redeemed, and the Company will be required to issue warrants to purchase 10% of its fully diluted Common Stock. The
Company has classified these contingently issued warrants as a derivative liability within its consolidated balance sheet.

On
January 17, 2001, the Company entered into a Bond Purchase Agreement with Greenlight. Pursuant to the agreement, Greenlight Capital formed a limited liability company, GNW, and
contributed $10 million to GNW to purchase Einstein bonds. The Company is the exclusive manager of GNW. The agreement provided Greenlight with a secure interest in GNW and a right to receive
the return of its original contribution plus a guaranteed accretion of 15% per year, increasing to 17% on January 17, 2002 and by an additional 2% each six months thereafter (the "Guaranteed
Return"). In connection with the agreement, the Company issued Greenlight warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,242,056 shares of its Common Stock at $0.01 per share. On June 19, 2001, GNW,
Greenlight, and the Company entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, Greenlight consented to the pledge of the Einstein bonds owned by GNW to secure the EnbcDeb Notes.
The Company is required to apply all proceeds received with respect to the Einstein bonds to repay the EnbcDeb Notes. To the extent that there are any excess proceeds, the Company is required to pay
them to Greenlight. If Greenlight does not receive a return equal to its Guaranteed Return, the Company is obligated to issue Greenlight Series F preferred stock with a face amount equal to the
deficiency and warrant coverage equal to 1.125% of its fully diluted Common Stock for each $1 million of deficiency. The Company has classified these contingently issuable warrants as a
derivative liability within its consolidated balance sheet.

The
Company plans to satisfy its capital requirements for the balance of fiscal 2002 through cash flow from operations and borrowings under its revolving loan facility. However, the $140
Million Facility and the revolving loan facility mature in June 2003. The Company has engaged an investment bank to assist in developing alternatives to rationalize its capital structure. The
Company is actively pursuing options to effect the refinancing of the $140 Million Facility on or before its maturity.

Seasonality and General Economic Trends

The Company anticipates that its business will be affected by general economic trends that affect retailers in general. While the Company has not operated during
a period of high inflation, management believes based on industry experience that the Company would generally be able to pass on increased costs resulting from inflation to its customers. The
Company's business may be affected by other factors, including increases in the commodity prices of green coffee and/or flour, acquisitions by the Company of existing stores, existing and additional
competition, marketing programs, weather, and variations in the number of store openings. Although few, if any, of the Company's employees are paid at the minimum wage level, an increase in the
minimum wage may create pressure to increase the pay scale for its employees, which would increase its labor costs and those of the Company's franchisees and licensees.

Risk Factors

Risk Factors Relating to the Company's Financial Condition

The Company has $140 Million Aggregate Principal Amount of Notes Outstanding that Mature on June 15, 2003, and the Company Must Raise Additional Capital to
Refinance these Notes and for Other General Corporate Purposes.

The
company must raise significant additional capital before June 15, 2003 to refinance the $140 Million Facility and for other general corporate purposes. The Company
cannot assure you that it will be able to raise such capital on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all. In addition, the existing revolving loan facility expires on June 1, 2003. The
Company intends to pursue refinancing the $140 Million Facility and replacing the revolving loan facility through the issuance of debt or equity or a combination thereof and obtaining
additional bank financing, but the Company currently has no commitments with respect to any refinancing. Even if the Company refinances its current indebtedness, the Company may seek additional
financing in the future to expand our business. If the Company is

31

---

unable
to obtain sufficient financing on satisfactory terms and conditions, the Company may not be able to expand its business. The Company's ability to obtain additional financing will depend upon a
number of factors, many of which are beyond its control. For example, the Company may not be able to obtain additional financing because it already has substantial debt and because the Company may not
have sufficient cash flow to service or repay its existing or additional debt. In addition, any additional equity financing may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all. As of April 30,
2003, the Company had outstanding warrants to purchase 54,723,480 shares of its Common Stock, which may adversely affect the Company's ability to raise additional equity financing in the future.

The Company has and expects to continue to have a substantial amount of debt.

The
Company has a high level of debt and is highly leveraged. In addition, the Company may, subject to certain restrictions, incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. The
Company's high level of debt could:



The Company may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow to make payments under its indebtedness due to events that are beyond the Company's
control.

Economic,
financial, competitive, legislative and other factors beyond the Company's control may affect its ability to generate cash flow from operations to make payments on its
indebtedness and to fund necessary working capital. A significant reduction in operating cash flow would likely increase the need for alternative sources of liquidity. If the Company is unable to
generate sufficient cash flow to make payments on its debt, the Company will have to pursue one or more alternatives, such as reducing or delaying capital expenditures, refinancing its debt, selling
assets or raising equity. The Company cannot assure you that any of these alternatives could be accomplished on satisfactory terms, if at all, or that they would yield sufficient funds to service the
Company's debt.

Risk Factors Relating to the Company's Business

The Company faces potential regulatory sanctions and civil and criminal penalties and claims for monetary damages and other relief.

The
Securities and Exchange Commission has initiated an investigation relating to the reasons for the Company's delay in filing its Form 10-K for fiscal 2001 and the
resignation of the Company's former Chairman, R. Ramin Kamfar, and the termination for cause of its former Chief Financial Officer, Jerold E. Novack. The Company is cooperating fully with the
Commission's investigation. The Company is also cooperating fully with a Department of Justice inquiry relating to the above-referenced issues. Given the early stage of these matters, the Company
cannot predict their outcome, and it cannot assure you that the Company will not be subject to regulatory sanctions, civil penalties and/or claims for monetary damages and other relief that may have a
material adverse effect on its business, prospects and financial condition.

The Company is vulnerable to fluctuations in the cost, availability and quality of its ingredients.

The
cost, availability and quality of the ingredients the Company uses to prepare its food is subject to a range of factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control. Fluctuations
in economic and political conditions, weather and demand could adversely affect the cost of the Company's ingredients. The Company has no control over fluctuations in the price of commodities, and no
assurance can be given that the Company will be able to pass through any cost increases to its customers. The Company is dependent on frequent deliveries of fresh ingredients, thereby subjecting the
Company to the risk of shortages or interruptions in supply. All of these factors could adversely affect the Company's business and financial results.

The Company heavily depends on our suppliers and distributors.

The
Company currently purchases our raw materials from various suppliers. Though to date the Company has not experienced any difficulties with its suppliers, the Company's reliance on
its suppliers subjects the Company to a number of risks, including possible delays or interruption in supplies, diminished control over quality and a potential lack of adequate raw material capacity.
Any disruption in the supply of or degradation in the quality of the raw materials provided by the Company's suppliers could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results
and financial condition. In addition, such disruptions in supply or degradations in quality could have a long-term detrimental impact on the Company's efforts to develop a strong brand
identity and a loyal consumer base.

The
Company depends on its distributors to distribute frozen dough and other materials to the Company's locations. The Company recently replaced a single national distributor with six
regional custom distributors. If any one or more of such distributors fails to perform as anticipated, or if there is any disruption in any of the Company's distribution relationships for any reason,
it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company faces the risk of increasing labor costs that could adversely affect the Company's continued profitability.

The
Company is dependent upon an available labor pool of unskilled employees, many of whom are hourly employees whose wages may be impacted by an increase in the federal or state minimum
wage. Numerous proposals have been made on state and federal levels to increase minimum wage levels. Although few, if any, of the Company's employees are paid at the minimum wage level, an increase in
the minimum wage may create pressure to increase the pay scale for the Company's employees, which would increase its labor costs and those of the Company's franchisees and licensees. A shortage in the
labor pool or other general inflationary pressures or changes could also increase labor costs. An increase in labor costs could have a material adverse effect on the Company's income from operations
and decrease the Company's profitability and cash available to service its debt obligations if the Company is unable to recover these increases by raising the prices the Company charges its consumers.

The Company is vulnerable to changes in consumer preferences and economic conditions that could harm its financial results.

Food
service businesses are often affected by changes in consumer tastes, national, regional and local economic conditions and demographic trends. Factors such as traffic patterns, local
demographics and the type, number and location of competing restaurants may adversely affect the performance of individual locations. In addition, inflation and increased food and energy costs may
harm the restaurant industry in general and the Company's locations in particular. Adverse changes in any of these factors could reduce consumer traffic or impose practical limits on pricing, which
could harm the Company's business, prospects, financial condition, operating results or cash flow. The Company's continued

33

---

success
will depend in part on its ability to anticipate, identify and respond to changing consumer preferences and economic conditions.

There is intense competition in the restaurant industry.

The
Company's industry is intensely competitive and there are many well established competitors with substantially greater financial and other resources. In addition to current
competitors, one or more new major competitors with substantially greater financial, marketing and operating resources could enter the market at any time and compete directly against the Company. In
addition, in virtually every major metropolitan area in which the Company operates or expect to enter, local or regional competitors already exist.

The Company faces the risk of adverse publicity and litigation in connection with its operations.

The
Company is from time to time the subject of complaints or litigation from its consumers alleging illness, injury or other food quality, health or operational concerns. Adverse
publicity resulting from these allegations may materially adversely affect the Company, regardless of whether the allegations are valid or whether the Company is liable. In addition, employee claims
against the Company based on, among other things, discrimination, harassment or wrongful termination may divert the Company's financial and management resources that would otherwise be used to benefit
the future performance of the Company's operations. The Company has been subject to claims from time to time, and although these claims have not historically had a material impact on the Company's
operations, a significant increase in the number of these claims or an increase in the number of successful claims could materially adversely affect the Company's business, prospects, financial
condition, operating results or cash flows.

The Company relies in part on its franchisees.

The
Company relies in part on its franchisees and the manner in which they operate their locations to develop and promote the Company's business. Although the Company has developed
criteria to evaluate and screen prospective franchisees, there can be no assurance that franchisees will have the business acumen or financial resources necessary to operate successful franchises in
their franchise areas. The failure of franchisees to operate franchises successfully could have a material adverse effect on the Company, its reputation, its brands and the company's ability to
attract prospective franchisees.

The Company faces risks associated with government regulation.

Each
of the Company's locations is subject to licensing and regulation by the health, sanitation, safety, building and fire agencies of the respective states and municipalities in which
they are located. A failure to comply with one or more regulations could result in the imposition of sanctions, including the closing of facilities for an indeterminate period of time, or third-party
litigation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company and the results of our operations.

In
addition, the Company's franchise operations are subject to regulation by the Federal Trade Commission. The Company's franchisees and the Company must also comply with state
franchising laws and a wide range of other state and local rules and regulations applicable to the Company's business. The failure to comply with federal, state and local rules and regulations would
have an adverse effect on the Company's franchisees and the Company.

Under
various federal, state and local laws, an owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on or in
such property. Such liability may be imposed without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Although the Company
is not aware of any environmental conditions that require remediation by the Company under federal, state or local law at the Company's properties, the Company has not conducted a comprehensive

34

---

environmental
review of its properties or operations and no assurance can be given that the Company has identified all of the potential environmental liabilities at its properties or that such
liabilities would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.

The Company may not be able to protect its trademarks and other proprietary rights.

The
Company believes that its trademarks and other proprietary rights are important to its success and the Company's competitive position. Accordingly, the Company devotes substantial
resources to the establishment and protection of its trademarks and proprietary rights. However, the actions taken by the Company may be inadequate to prevent imitation of the Company's products and
concepts by others or to prevent others from claiming violations of their trademarks and proprietary rights by the Company. In addition, others may assert rights in the Company's trademarks and other
proprietary rights.

The holders of our Series F Preferred Stock control the Company.

Halpern
Denny III, L.P., one of the holders of Series F preferred stock, currently beneficially owns 50.1% of the Company's Common Stock. The other holders of the Company's
Series F preferred stock currently beneficially own an aggregate of an additional 39.5% of the Company's Common Stock. In addition, because the Series F preferred stock has remained
outstanding for more than one year, the holders of Series F preferred stock are entitled to receive additional warrants. In addition, the holders of Series F preferred stock currently
have the right to designate up to four members of the Company's Board of Directors and, in the event that any dividends on the Series F preferred stock are in arrears, or if the Series F
preferred stock is not redeemed in accordance with its terms, the holders of the Series F preferred stock will be entitled to designate at least 50% of the members of the Company's Board of
Directors. Pursuant to applicable law, we have been unable to pay the Series F preferred stock dividends that were due to them on June 30, 2002, September 30, 2002,
December 31, 2002 and March 31, 2003. Such dividends are being accrued. This concentration of voting power could allow Halpern Denny and/or the other holders of the Series F
preferred stock to direct the Company's affairs, and may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control.
