CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this report regarding the business of The Chefs Warehouse, Inc. (the Company) that are not historical facts are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that
involve risks and uncertainties and are based on current expectations and management estimates; actual results may differ materially. Words such as anticipates, expects, intends, plans,
believes, seeks, estimates and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to
risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and/or could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. The risks and
uncertainties which could impact these statements include, but are not limited to, the Companys sensitivity to general economic conditions, including the current economic environment, changes in disposable income levels and consumer
discretionary spending on food-away-from-home purchases; the Companys vulnerability to economic and other developments in the geographic markets in which it operates; the risks of supply chain interruptions due to lack of long-term contracts,
severe weather or more prolonged climate change, work stoppages or otherwise; the risk of loss of customers due to the fact the Company does not customarily have long-term contracts with its customers; changes in the availability or cost of the
Companys specialty food products; the ability to effectively price the Companys specialty food products and reduce the Companys expenses; the relatively low margins of the foodservice distribution industry and the Companys
sensitivity to inflationary and deflationary pressures; the Companys ability to successfully identify, obtain financing for and complete acquisitions of other foodservice distributors and to integrate and realize expected synergies from those
acquisitions; increased fuel costs and expectations regarding the use of fuel surcharges; the loss of key members of the Companys management team and the Companys ability to replace such personnel; the strain on the Companys
infrastructure and resources caused by its growth; and other risks and uncertainties included under the heading Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 29, 2012.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1  Operations and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

The financial statements include the consolidated accounts of The Chefs Warehouse, Inc. (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Companys quarterly periods end on the
thirteenth Friday of each quarter. Every six to seven years the Company will add a fourteenth week to its fourth quarter to more closely align its year end to the calendar year.In 2011, this resulted in a 53-week year ending
December 30, 2011. The Company operates in one segment, food product distribution, which is concentrated on the East and West Coasts of the United States. The Companys customer base consists primarily of menu-driven independent
restaurants, fine dining establishments, country clubs, hotels, caterers, culinary schools and specialty food stores.

On July 27, 2011,
the Company completed a reorganization in which the predecessor to the Company, Chefs Warehouse Holdings, LLC, was converted into the Company (the Conversion). As part of the Conversion the Company issued 16,000,000 shares of
common stock. Each holder of the predecessor companys Class B and Class C units received approximately 0.2942 shares of common stock for each unit of membership interest in Chefs Warehouse Holdings, LLC owned by them at the time of the
Conversion. Of the total number of shares issued in the Conversion, 445,056 shares were restricted shares of the Companys common stock issued upon conversion of the Companys Class C units that had not vested as of the date the Company
consummated the Conversion. The effects of this reorganization on the Companys earnings per share have been reflected for all periods presented retroactively.

On August 2, 2011, the Company completed the initial public offering (IPO) of shares of its common stock. The Company issued 4,666,667 shares in the IPO, and certain existing stockholders
sold an additional 5,683,333 shares, including 1,350,000 shares sold to the underwriters to cover over-allotments. The Company received net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $63,279 (after the payment of underwriter discounts and commissions
and offering expenses) that were used, together with borrowings under the Companys senior secured credit facility, that the Company entered into on August 2, 2011, to repay all of the Companys loans outstanding under its former
senior secured credit facilities and senior subordinated notes, including any accrued and unpaid interest and call premiums.

Consolidation

The Companys
wholly-owned operating companies include the following: Dairyland USA Corporation (Dairyland), a New York corporation engaged in business as a distributor of dairy, meat, and specialty foods; Bel Canto Foods, LLC (a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Dairyland), a New York limited liability company engaged in the business of importing primarily Mediterranean style food products; Dairyland HP LLC, a New York limited liability company (DHP) engaged in the business of
renting real estate; The Chefs Warehouse Mid-Atlantic, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company engaged in a business similar to Dairyland, primarily in Maryland and the District of Columbia; The Chefs Warehouse West Coast, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company engaged in a business similar to Dairyland, primarily in California, Nevada, Oregon and Washington; and The Chefs Warehouse of Florida, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company engaged in a business similar
to Dairyland, primarily in southern Florida. In addition to these operating companies, the Company also owns 100% of Chefs Warehouse Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company which owns 100% of The Chefs Warehouse Mid-Atlantic,
LLC, The Chefs Warehouse West Coast, LLC, and The Chefs Warehouse of Florida, LLC. Dairyland owns 100% of Dairyland HP LLC. Subsequent to June 29, 2012, and as described in more detail in Note 13, the Company acquired 100% of the
equity securities of Michaels Finer Meats, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

ended June 29, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from managements estimates.

Note 3  Derivatives

Derivatives are carried as assets or liabilities at their fair values in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification
(ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements. During 2012 we entered into a derivative contract which did not qualify for hedge accounting. In prior years we entered into two derivative contracts, neither of which qualified for hedge
accounting. The gains and losses on these instruments, due to changes in fair value, are recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

In February 2012 we purchased an out of the money Brent Crude Option as a hedge against potential geo-political disruptions in the Middle East. This option expired on June 11, 2012.

In prior years we entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge the exposure on our variable rate debt. This agreement expired in January 2011.

In January 2011, the Company entered into a foreign exchange collar contract to hedge its exposure to variability in the Euro/US Dollar
exchange rate. This agreement expired in December 2011. As part of its business, the Company regularly imports products from Europe that require payment in Euros. This contract required us to purchase and sell Euros throughout the year to pay for
forecasted imports. During fiscal 2011 the collar was used to purchase 3,150 Euros.

Note 4  Fair Value Measurements

We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of the following
three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety:

Level 1 -
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Level 2 - Observable
inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities include the following:



| | a) | quoted prices for similar assets in active markets;
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------



| | b) | quoted prices for identical or similar assets in inactive markets;
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| | c) | inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset; and
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| | d) | inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If the asset has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset.

Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity) and
significant to the fair value measure.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

We had no assets or liabilities reflected at fair value as of June 29, 2012 or December 30, 2011.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets for accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the immediate to short-term
maturity of these financial instruments. The fair values of the revolving credit facility and term loan approximated their book values as of June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011, as these instruments had variable interest rates that
reflected current market rates.

Note 5  Acquisitions

The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805 Business Combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities
assumed are recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Results of operations are included in the Companys financial statements from the date of acquisition.

On April 27, 2012, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Praml International, Ltd. (Praml), a Nevada corporation,
for approximately $19,500 in cash. Praml is a leading specialty food service company that has serviced the Las Vegas and Reno markets for over 20 years. The Company financed the purchase price with borrowings under its New Credit Facilities (as
defined below). During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company expensed $23 of legal fees in operating expenses related to the acquisition. Pro forma financial information with respect to the acquisition of Praml is not required to be
included in these financial statements, since the effects of the acquisition are not material to our financial statements. We engaged a third party to perform a formal valuation of the intangible assets of Praml. As of the date of this report, this
valuation has not been completed. The financial statements reflect our preliminary estimate of the valuation of the goodwill and intangible assets we acquired in the transaction. These assets were valued at fair value using level 3 inputs. As the
valuation is not complete, there may be adjustments to the goodwill and intangible assets other than goodwill initially recorded by the Company. Goodwill for the Praml acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.

On November 7, 2011, the Company purchased substantially all the assets of Provvista Specialty Foods, Inc. (Provvista), including
Provvistas customer list and certain intellectual property. Provvista is a leading specialty foods importer and wholesale distributor located in Portland, Oregon, which services the Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington metropolitan areas.
The purchase price paid to Provvista was approximately $8,800. The Company financed the purchase price with borrowings under its senior secured revolving credit facility existing at that time. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company
expensed $20 of legal fees in operating expenses related to the acquisition. Pro forma financial information with respect to the acquisition of Provvistas assets is not required to be included in these financial statements, since the effects
of the acquisition are not material to our financial statements. The Company completed a valuation of the tangible and intangible assets of Provvista. These assets were valued at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Goodwill for the Provvista
acquisition will be amortized for tax purposes over a period of 15 years. Other intangible assets consist of customer relationships which will be amortized over thirteen years and trademarks which will be amortized over two years. The Company
expects to operate under the Provvista name in these new markets for the foreseeable future.

On June 24, 2011, the Company completed its
acquisition of certain assets of Harry Wils & Co., a specialty foodservice distribution company headquartered in the New York City metropolitan area. The operations of Harry Wils & Co. were immediately combined with the
Companys existing New York operations. The Company financed the purchase price for these assets with borrowings under its then-existing senior secured credit facilities. During the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company expensed $55 of
legal fees in operating expenses related to the acquisition. Pro forma financial information with respect to the acquisition of Harry Wils & Co. is not required to be included in these financial statements, since the effects of the
acquisition are not material to our financial statements. The Company completed a valuation of the intangible assets of Harry Wils & Co. These assets were valued at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Goodwill for the Harry Wils & Co.
acquisition will be amortized for tax purposes over a period of 15 years. Other intangible assets consist of customer relationships, which will be amortized over 10.5 years.

The New Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan facility (the New Term Loan
Facility) in the aggregate amount of up to $40,000 (the loans thereunder, the New Term Loans) and a senior secured revolving loan facility (the New Revolving Credit Facility and, together with the New Term Loan
Facility, the New Credit Facilities) of up to an aggregate amount of $100,000 (the loans thereunder, the New Revolving Credit Loans). The New Credit Agreement also provides that the Borrowers may, at their option, increase
the aggregate amount of either borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility or the New Term Loan Facility in an aggregate amount up to $40,000 (but in not less than $10,000 increments) without the consent of any lenders not participating in
such increase, subject to certain customary conditions and lenders committing to provide the increase in funding. The final maturity of the New Term Loans and New Revolving Credit Facility is April 25, 2017. Subject to adjustment for
prepayments, the Company is required to make quarterly principal payments on the New Term Loans on June 30, September 30, December 31 and March 31, with the first four quarterly payments equal to $1,000 per quarter, and
the last sixteen quarterly payments equal to $1,500 per quarter, with the remaining balance due upon maturity.

The New Credit Facilities are
secured by substantially all the assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors with the exception of equity interests in and assets of DHP. Borrowings under the New Credit Facilities will bear interest at the Companys option of either
(i) the alternate base rate (representing the greatest of (1) Chases prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate for overnight borrowings plus 1/2 of 1% and (3) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for one month plus 2.50%) plus in
each case the applicable margin of 0.50% for New Revolving Credit Loans or New Term Loans or (ii), in the case of Eurodollar Borrowings (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the applicable margin of 3.0% for New
Revolving Credit Loans or New Term Loans. The LIBO Rate is the rate for eurodollar deposits for a period equal to one, two, three, six or nine months (as selected by the Borrowers) appearing on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or any successor or
substitute page of such service), at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time, two business days prior to the commencement of the applicable interest period.

The New Credit Agreement also includes financial covenants that require (i) the ratio of the Companys consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) minus the unfinanced portion
of capital expenditures to the Companys consolidated Fixed Charges (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) on a trailing twelve month basis as of the end of each of the Companys fiscal quarters not be less than 1.25 to 1.00 and
(ii) the ratio of the Companys consolidated Total Indebtedness (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) to the Companys consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) for the then trailing twelve months be greater than
(A) 3.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending in the Companys 2012 and 2013 fiscal years, (B) 3.25 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending in the Companys 2014 and 2015 fiscal years and (C) 3.00 to 1.00 for any fiscal
quarter ending thereafter.

Upon entering into the New Credit Agreement, the Company wrote off deferred financing fees of approximately $237
related to its previous credit facility. As this transaction was considered a modification of existing debt, deferred financing fees from our previous credit facility of approximately $773 will be amortized over the life of the New Credit Agreement.

On April 26, 2012 (the Loan Commencement Date), DHP entered into a financing arrangement under the New Markets Tax Credit
(NMTC) program under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), pursuant to which CLII provided to DHP the NMTC Loan to help fund DHPs expansion and build-out of its new Bronx, NY facility, which
construction is required under the Lease Agreement. The NMTC Loan is evidenced by a Mortgage Note, dated as of April 26, 2012 (the Mortgage Note), between DHP, as maker, and CLII, as payee. Under the Mortgage Note DHP is obligated
to pay CLII (i) monthly interest payments on the principal balance then outstanding and (ii) the entire unpaid principal balance then due and owing on April 26, 2017. Interest accrues under the Mortgage Note at 1.00% per annum
for as long as DHP is not in default thereunder, which interest shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days.

As of June 29, 2012, the Borrowers and Guarantors were in compliance with all debt covenants under the New Credit Agreement and the NMTC Loan and the Company had reserved $120 of the New Revolving
Credit Facility for the issuance of a letter of credit.

Note 11  Stockholders Equity

On January 12, 2012, we granted restricted share awards totaling 54,719 shares to our senior executives and other officers. Of
these shares, 23,551 shares are time-based grants with awards vesting in equal amounts on each of the first four anniversary dates of the grant and 31,168 shares are performance-based grants with the awards vesting in equal amounts on each of the
first three anniversary dates of the grant, subject to the Company attaining certain fully diluted earnings per share targets. These awards were valued at $17.16, representing the closing price of the Companys common stock on January 12,
2012. During the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012 the Company reversed $82 of expense previously recognized on performance-based grants because it has been determined that it is not probable that we will reach the fully diluted earnings per share
targets for 2012. During the 13 and 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, the Company recognized compensation expense totaling $15 and $40 on time-based grants of restricted shares.

On February 27, 2012, we granted restricted share awards totaling 22,000 shares to a number of our employees. The awards were valued at $19.72 per share, representing the closing price of the
Companys stock on February 27, 2012. The awards will vest in equal amounts on each of the first four anniversary dates of the grant. During the 13 and 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, we recognized compensation expense of $27 and $36,
respectively with respect to these awards.

On May 17, 2012, the Company granted restricted share awards totaling 7,208 shares to its
four independent directors which vest on the date of our 2013 annual stockholders meeting. These shares were valued at $20.53 each (the closing price of our common stock on May 17, 2012). The shares issued to John D Austin were forfeited
on May 24, 2012 when he resigned from the board of directors. During the 13 and 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, we recognized expense of $9 related to these grants.

On May 24, 2012, the Company granted restricted share awards totaling 1,948 shares to Dominick Cerbone upon his agreement to join the board of directors. These shares will vest on the date of our
2013 annual stockholders meeting. These shares were valued at $18.99 each (the closing price of our common stock on May 24, 2012). During the 13 and 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, we recognized expense of $3 related to these grants.

During the 13 and 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012 we recognized compensation expense totaling $129 and $272 for restricted share awards
issued in fiscal 2011 to our employees and independent outside directors.

As of June 29, 2012 there were 1,465,629 shares available for
grant in the 2011 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

Note 12  Related Parties

The Company leases two warehouse facilities from related parties. These facilities are 100% owned by entities controlled by certain of
the Companys stockholders and are deemed to be affiliates. Expenses related to these facilities totaled $768 during the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012. One of the facilities is a distribution facility leased by Dairyland from The
Chefs Warehouse Leasing Co., LLC. The Chefs Warehouse Leasing Co., LLC leases the distribution center from the New York City Industrial Development Agency. In connection with this sublease arrangement, Dairyland and two of the
Companys other subsidiaries are required to act as conditional guarantors of The Chefs Warehouse Leasing Co., LLCs mortgage obligation on the distribution center. The mortgage payoff date is December 2029 and the potential
obligation under this guarantee totaled $10,883 at June 29, 2012. On July 1, 2005 the Company entered into a consent and release agreement with the mortgagee in which the entity guarantors were conditionally released from their respective
obligations. The Company and the entity guarantors continue to be in compliance with the specified conditions. The Chefs Warehouse Leasing Co., LLC has the ability to opt out of its lease agreement with the New York City Industrial Development
Agency by giving 60 days notice. This action would cause the concurrent reduction in the term of the sublease with Dairyland to December 2014.

One of our non-employee directors, Stephen Hanson, is the President and a 50% owner of a New York City-based multi-concept restaurant operator holding company. Certain subsidiaries of this holding company
are customers of the Company and its subsidiaries that purchased an aggregate of approximately $1,468 of products from us during the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012. Terms provided to these customers were determined in the ordinary course of
business, at arms length and were materially consistent with those of other customers with similar volumes and purchasing patterns.

|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is provided as a supplement to the
accompanying financial statements and footnotes to help provide an understanding of our financial condition, changes in our financial condition and results of operations. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with information
included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 29, 2012. On July 27, 2011, we converted our company from a Delaware limited liability company, Chefs Warehouse Holdings, LLC, into a Delaware corporation, The
Chefs Warehouse, Inc. Unless otherwise indicated, the terms Company, Chefs Warehouse, we, us and our refer to Chefs Warehouse Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries prior to

OVERVIEW

We are a premier distributor of specialty foods in seven of the leading culinary
markets in the United States. We offer more than 16,700 SKUs, ranging from high-quality specialty foods and ingredients to basic ingredients and staples. We serve more than 9,800 customer locations, primarily located in our seven geographic markets
across the United States, and the majority of our customers are independent restaurants and fine dining establishments. We believe several key differentiating factors of our business model have enabled us to execute our strategy consistently and
profitably across our expanding customer base. These factors consist of a portfolio of distinctive and hard-to-find specialty food products, a highly trained and motivated sales force, strong sourcing capabilities, a fully integrated warehouse
management system, a highly sophisticated distribution and logistics platform and a focused, seasoned management team. In recent years, our sales to existing and new customers have increased through the continued growth in demand for specialty food
products in general; increased market share driven by our sophisticated and experienced sales professionals, our high-quality customer service and our extensive breadth and depth of product offerings, especially in specialty products; the
acquisition of other specialty food distributors; the expansion of our existing distribution centers; the construction of a new distribution center; and the import and sale of our proprietary brands. Through these efforts, we believe that we have
been able to expand our customer base, enhance and diversify our product selections, broaden our geographic penetration and increase our market share.

RECENT ACQUISITIONS

On August 10, 2012, subsequent to the period covered by these
financial statements, the Company acquired 100% of the equity securities of Michaels Finer Meats, LLC (Michaels), an approximately $80,000 annual revenue specialty protein distributor based in Columbus, Ohio. Michaels
distributes an extensive portfolio of custom cut beef, seafood and other center-of-the-plate products to many of the leading restaurants, country clubs, hotels and casinos in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee, Michigan, Kentucky, West Virginia and
western Pennsylvania. The total purchase price for the business was approximately $54,300 (subject to customary post-closing working capital adjustments) and was funded with borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility.

On April 27, 2012 , we acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Praml International, Ltd.
(Praml), a Nevada corporation. The purchase price paid to acquire Praml was approximately $19,500 and is subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment. We financed the purchase price paid for the outstanding common stock of Praml
with borrowings under the New Credit Facilities (as defined below). Praml is a leading specialty foods importer and wholesale distributor located in Las Vegas, Nevada which services the Las Vegas and Reno markets.

On November 7, 2011, we purchased substantially all the assets of Provvista Specialty Foods, Inc. (Provvista), including
Provvistas customer list, inventory and certain intellectual property. Provvista is a leading specialty foods importer and wholesale distributor located in Portland, Oregon, which services the Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington
metropolitan areas. The purchase price paid to Provvista was approximately $8,800. We financed the purchase price with borrowings under our credit facilities that we entered into in connection with our initial public offering that we consummated on
August 2, 2011 (the IPO). We expect Provvista to continue to operate under the Provvista name in these new markets for the foreseeable future.

On June 24, 2011, we purchased the inventory of Harry Wils & Co. and certain intangible assets, including Harry Wils & Co.s customer list and certain intellectual property.
Harry Wils & Co. is a specialty foodservice distribution company headquartered in the New York City metropolitan area, and we believe that the purchase of these assets will allow us to increase the number of customers we service in the New
York metropolitan area. The purchase price paid to Harry Wils & Co. was approximately $8,900, and we have relocated the inventory purchased to our Bronx, New York distribution facilities. We financed the purchase price for these assets with
borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities in place prior to the consummation of our IPO.

Our Growth Strategies and Outlook

We continue to invest in our people, facilities and technology to achieve the following objectives and maintain our premier position
within the specialty foodservice distribution market:



| |  |  | sales and service territory expansion;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | operational excellence and high customer service levels;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | expanded purchasing programs and improved buying power;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | product innovation and new product category introduction;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | operational efficiencies through system enhancements; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | operating expense reduction through the centralization of general and administrative functions.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our continued profitable growth has allowed us to improve upon our organizations infrastructure, open new distribution facilities and pursue
selective acquisitions. This continuing improvement of our infrastructure has allowed us to scale the business and historically achieve higher operating margins. Over the last several years, we have increased our distribution capacity to
approximately 455,000 square feet in nine facilities.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

Due to our focus on menu-driven independent restaurants, fine dining establishments, country clubs, hotels, caterers and specialty food stores, our
results of operations are materially impacted by the success of the food-away-from-home industry in the United States, which is materially impacted by general economic conditions, discretionary spending levels and consumer confidence.

Food price costs also significantly impact our results of operations. Food price inflation, like that which we experienced throughout 2011,
may increase the dollar value of our sales because many of our products are sold at our cost plus a percentage markup. When the rate of inflation declines or we experience deflation, as we saw in the first and second quarters of 2012, primarily in
our dairy and cheese categories, the dollar value of our sales may fall despite our unit sales remaining constant or growing. For those of our products that we price on a fixed fee-per-case basis, our gross profit margins may be negatively affected
in an inflationary environment, even though our gross revenues may be positively impacted. Prolonged periods of inflation leading to cost increases above levels that we are able to pass along to our customers, either overall or in certain product
categories, may have a negative impact on us and our customers, as elevated food costs can reduce consumer spending

in the food-away-from-home market, and may negatively impact our sales, gross margins and earnings. Similarly, prolonged periods of deflation may negatively impact our net sales despite the fact
that we are increasing the volume of products we sell to our customers.

The foodservice distribution industry is fragmented and
consolidating. Over the past five years, we have supplemented our internal growth through selective strategic acquisitions. We believe that the consolidation trends in the foodservice distribution industry will continue to present acquisition
opportunities for us, which may allow us to grow our business at a faster pace than we would otherwise be able to grow the business organically.

Management evaluates the results of operations and cash flows using a variety of key performance indicators, including
revenues compared to prior periods and internal forecasts, costs of our products and results of our cost-control initiatives, and use of operating cash. These indicators are discussed throughout the Results of Operations and
Liquidity and Capital Resources sections of this MD&A.

13 Weeks Ended June 29, 2012 Compared to 13 Weeks Ended
June 24, 2011

Net Sales

Our net sales for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012 increased approximately 15.7%, or $15,570, to $114,825 from $99,255 for the 13 weeks ended June 24, 2011. Acquisitions contributed
approximately 12.8% of the 15.7% total sales growth. Both our placements and number of customers continued to grow during the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012 compared to the 13 weeks ended June 24, 2011, however our cases per placement showed
some softening, particularly in June 2012. As a result, organic growth was 2.9% which was negatively impacted by approximately 2.4% of deflation, primarily in the dairy and cheese categories. Based on current trends and prior year pricing, we expect
deflation to moderate somewhat in the third and into the fourth quarters of 2012.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased approximately 16.1%, or $4,217, to $30,472 for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012, from $26,255 for the 13 weeks ended
June 24, 2011. Despite the impact of deflation on net sales, we were able to slightly improve our overall gross margins. Gross profit margin (gross profit expressed as a percentage of net sales) increased by 9 basis points to 26.5% for the
second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased by approximately 18.3% or $3,403 to $21,954 for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012 from $18,551 for the 13 weeks
ended June 24, 2011. Warehouse, distribution and selling costs increased approximately $2,283 to $15,869, which included $184 of duplicate rent expense on our Bronx, NY facility. In addition, general and administrative costs increased
approximately $1,121 to $6,086 for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012, compared to $4,965 for the 13 weeks ended June 24, 2011. The year over year increase in general and administrative costs was primarily as a result of investment in
information technology initiatives, stock compensation costs and expenses related to being a public company.

Operating Income

Operating income increased by approximately 10.6% or $813 to $8,517 for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012 from $7,704 for the 13 weeks ended June 24, 2011. The increase in operating income is
reflective of higher sales levels and improved gross profit margins offsetting higher operating costs. As a percentage of net sales, operating income decreased to 7.4% for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012 from 7.8% for the 13 weeks ended
June 24, 2011. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of nets sales was driven by higher operating costs as discussed above. We expect that the quarter over quarter impact of many of these higher costs will be reduced in the third and
fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 following the one year anniversary of our IPO.

Other Expense

Total other expense decreased $2,448 to $895 for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012 from $3,343 for the 13 weeks ended June 24, 2011. This
decrease was entirely attributable to a decrease in interest expense. The decrease was due to lower debt levels as a result of the Companys IPO and lower interest rates on the Companys post-IPO credit facilities, offset in part by
incremental borrowings to fund the Provvista and Praml acquisitions. In addition, the second quarter of 2012 included the write-off of approximately $237 of deferred financing fees in conjunction with the refinancing of the companys credit
facilities in April 2012.

Provision for Income Taxes

For the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012, we recorded an effective income tax rate of 41.5%. For the 13 weeks ended June 24, 2011, our effective income tax rate was 39.2%.

Net Income

Reflecting the
factors described above, net income increased $1,806 to $4,459 for the 13 weeks ended June 29, 2012, compared to net income of $2,653 for the 13 weeks ended June 24, 2011.

26 Weeks Ended June 29, 2012 Compared to 26 Weeks Ended June 24, 2011

Net
Sales

Our net sales for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012 increased approximately 16.7%, or $30,456, to
$212,894 from $182,438 for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. Acquisitions contributed approximately 11.8% of the approximately 16.7% total net sales growth. Both our placements and number of customers continued to grow during the first six
months of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, however our cases per placement showed some softening, particularly in June 2012. As a result, organic growth was 4.9% which was negatively impacted by approximately 2.1% of deflation, primarily in
the dairy and cheese categories. Based on current trends and prior year pricing, we expect deflation to moderate somewhat in the third and into the fourth quarters of 2012.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased approximately 17.0%, or $8,230, to $56,520 for
the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, from $48,290 for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. Despite the impact of deflation on net sales, we were able to slightly improve our overall gross margins. Gross profit margin increased by eight basis
points to 26.5% for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012 compared to the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased by approximately 20.9%, or $7,415, to $42,945 for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, from
$35,530 for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. Warehouse, distribution and selling expenses increased by approximately $4,600 to $30,579, which included $184 of duplicate rent on our Bronx, NY facility. General and administrative costs increased
by approximately $2,815 to $12,366 for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, compared to $9,551 for comparable period in 2011, primarily as a result of investment in information technology initiatives, stock compensation costs and expenses related
to being a public company.

Operating Income

Operating income increased approximately 6.4% or $815 to $13,575 for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, as compared to $12,760 for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. This increase is reflective of
higher sales levels and improved gross profit margins offset, in part, by higher operating expenses for the first 26 weeks of fiscal 2012 as compared to the comparable period in 2011. As a percentage of net sales, operating income decreased to 6.3%
for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012 from 7.0% for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. The decrease in operating income as a percentage of nets sales was driven by higher operating costs as discussed above. We expect that the impact of many
of these higher costs will be reduced in the third and fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 following the one year anniversary of our IPO.

Other Expense

Total other
expense decreased $5,271 to $1,444 for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012 from $6,715 for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. This decrease was attributable to the decrease in interest expense for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012 to
$1,444 from $6,793 for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. The decrease was due to lower debt levels as a result of the Companys IPO in July of 2011 and lower interest rates on the Companys post-IPO credit facilities, offset in part
by incremental borrowings to fund the Provvista and Praml acquisitions. In addition, the second quarter of 2012 included the write-off of approximately $237 of deferred financing fees in conjunction with the refinancing of the companys credit
facilities. We expect that our interest expense in the second half of 2012 will exceed our interest expense in the first half of 2012 as a result of our additional borrowings to finance our acquisition of Michaels and as our interest expense
will no longer benefit from the year-over-year benefit of the lower interest rates on our post-IPO credit facilities.

Provision for
Income Taxes

Our effective income tax rate was 41.5% and 39.2% for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012 and June 24, 2011,
respectively.

Net Income

Reflecting the factors described above, net income increased $3,419 to $7,092 for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, compared to $3,673 for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We finance our day-to-day operations and growth primarily with cash flows from operations, borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities,
operating leases and trade payables. We believe that our cash on hand and available credit through the revolving credit facility portion of our senior secured credit facilities, as discussed below, is sufficient for our operations and planned
capital expenditures over the next twelve months.

New Credit Facilities

On April 25, 2012, Dairyland USA Corporation, The Chefs Warehouse Mid-Atlantic, LLC, Bel Canto Foods, LLC, The Chefs Warehouse West
Coast, LLC, The Chefs Warehouse of Florida, LLC (each a Borrower and collectively, the Borrowers), the Company and Chefs Warehouse Parent, LLC (together with the Company, the Guarantors) entered into a
senior secured credit facility (the New Credit Agreement) with the lenders from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (Chase), as Administrative Agent, and the other parties thereto.

The New Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan facility (the New Term Loan Facility) in the aggregate amount of up to
$40,000 (the loans thereunder, the New Term Loans) and a senior secured revolving loan facility (the New Revolving Credit Facility and, together with the New Term Loan Facility, the New Credit Facilities) of up to
an aggregate amount of $100,000 (the loans thereunder, the New Revolving Credit Loans), of which up to $1,000 is available for letters of credit and up to $3,000 is available for short-term borrowings on a swingline basis. The New Credit
Agreement also provides that the Borrowers may, at their option, increase the aggregate amount of either borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility or the New Term Loan Facility in an aggregate amount up to $40,000 (but in not less than
$10,000 increments) without the consent of any lenders not participating in such increase, subject to certain customary conditions and lenders committing to provide the increase in funding. There can be no assurance that additional funding will
become available. Unutilized commitments under the New Revolving Credit Facility portion of the New Credit Agreement are subject to a per annum fee of 0.40%. A fronting fee of 0.25% per annum is payable on the face amount of each letter of
credit issued under the New Credit Facilities.

On April 25, 2012, the Borrowers incurred $40,000 in borrowings under the New Term Loan
Facility of the New Credit Agreement to repay existing borrowings under the credit facilities that were put in place in connection with the IPO. The final maturity of the New Term Loans is April 25, 2017. Subject to adjustment for prepayments,
the Company is required to make quarterly principal payments on the New Term Loans on June 30, September 30, December 31 and March 31, with the first four quarterly payments equal to $1,000 and the last sixteen
quarterly payments equal to $1,500, with the remaining balance due upon maturity.

On April 25, 2012, the Borrowers incurred
approximately $3,000 in borrowings under the New Revolving Credit Facility portion of the New Credit Agreement to repay borrowings under the credit facilities that were put in place in connection with the IPO. Going forward, borrowings under the New
Revolving Credit Facility portion of the New Credit Agreement will be used for Capital Expenditures (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), Permitted Acquisitions (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), working capital and general corporate
purposes of the Borrowers. The commitments under the New Revolving Credit Facility expire on April 25, 2017 and any New Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding will be payable in full at that time.

Borrowings under the New Credit Facilities will bear interest at the Companys option of either (i) the alternate base rate (representing the
greatest of (1) Chases prime rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate for overnight borrowings plus 1/2 of 1% and (3) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for one month plus 2.50%) plus in each case the applicable margin of 0.50% for New
Revolving Credit Loans or New Term Loans or (ii), in the case of Eurodollar Borrowings (as defined in the New Credit Agreement), the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the applicable margin of 3.0% for New Revolving Credit Loans or New Term Loans. The LIBO
Rate is the rate for eurodollar deposits for a period equal to one, two, three, six or nine months (as selected by the Borrowers) appearing on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or any successor or substitute page of such service), at approximately 11:00
a.m. London time, two business days prior to the commencement of the applicable interest period.

##### Table of Contents

The New Credit Agreement includes financial covenants that require (i) the ratio of the Companys
consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) minus the unfinanced portion of capital expenditures to the Companys consolidated Fixed Charges (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) on a trailing twelve month basis as of the
end of each of the Companys fiscal quarters not be less than 1.25 to 1.00 and (ii) the ratio of the Companys consolidated Total Indebtedness (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) to the Companys consolidated EBITDA (as
defined in the New Credit Agreement) for the then trailing twelve months be no greater than (A) 3.50 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending in the Companys 2012 and 2013 fiscal years, (B) 3.25 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending in
the Companys 2014 and 2015 fiscal years and (C) 3.00 to 1.00 for any fiscal quarter ending thereafter.

New Markets Tax
Credit Loan Transaction

On April 26, 2012 (the Loan Commencement Date), Dairyland HP LLC (DHP), an
indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a financing arrangement under the New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) program under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), pursuant to which
Commercial Lending II LLC (CLII), a community development entity and a subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., will provide to DHP an $11,000 construction loan (the NMTC Loan) to help fund DHPs expansion and build-out
of our Bronx, New York facility and the rail shed located at that facility, which construction is required under the facility lease agreement.

Under the NMTC Loan, DHP is obligated to pay CLII (i) monthly interest payments on the principal balance then outstanding and (ii) the entire
unpaid principal balance then due and owing on April 26, 2017. So long as DHP is not in default, interest accrues on borrowings at 1.00% per annum. We may prepay the NMTC Loan, in whole or in part, in $100 increments, after March 15,
2014.

Borrowings under the NMTC Loan are secured by a first priority secured lien on DHPs leasehold interest in our Bronx, New York
facility, including all improvements made on the premises, as well as, among other things, a lien on all fixtures incorporated into the project improvements.

For more information regarding the NMTC Loan, see Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

We believe that our capital expenditures, excluding cash paid for acquisitions, for fiscal 2012 will be approximately $8,500. The significant increase in projected capital expenditures in 2012 is being
driven by the planned renovation and expansion of our newly leased Bronx, New York distribution facility. We expect to finance the capital expenditures associated with the renovation and expansion of this facility, which we expect to range from
$15,000 to $20,000, with borrowings under the NMTC Loan and working capital. The portion of the capital expenditures for this project that we expect to incur in fiscal 2012 is expected to be approximately $7,500. Recurring capital expenditures will
be financed with cash generated from operations and borrowings under our New Revolving Credit Facility. Our planned capital projects will provide both new and expanded facilities and improvements to our technology that we believe will produce
increased efficiency and the capacity to continue to support the growth of our customer base. Future investments and acquisitions will be financed through either internally generated cash flow, borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities
in place at the time of the potential acquisition or issuance of our common stock.

Net cash provided by operations was $7,507 for the 26
weeks ended June 29, 2012, a decrease of $912 from the $8,419 provided by operations for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. The primary reason for the decrease was a $4,434 decrease in cash provided from working capital and other assets
offset by a $3,419 increase in net income.

Net cash used in investing activities was $21,518 for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, an
increase of $11,787 from the $9,729 used in investing activities for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Praml International, Ltd in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 which required cash
outlays totaling $10,640 more than our acquisition of Harry Wils & Co. in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The remaining increase can be attributed to increased capital expenditures, primarily due to the initial stages of the build out of
our new Bronx, NY distribution facility.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $14,414 for the 26 weeks ended June 29, 2012, an
increase of $13,663 from the $751 provided by financing activities for the 26 weeks ended June 24, 2011.

##### Table of Contents

Seasonality

Generally, we do not experience any material seasonality. However, our sales and operating results may vary from quarter to quarter due to factors such as changes in our operating expenses,
managements ability to execute our operating and growth strategies, personnel changes, demand for natural products, supply shortages and general economic conditions.

Inflation

Our profitability is dependent, among other things, on our ability to anticipate
and react to changes in the costs of key operating resources, including food and other raw materials, labor, energy and other supplies and services. Substantial increases in costs and expenses could impact our operating results to the extent that
such increases cannot be passed along to our customers. The impact of inflation or deflation on food, labor, energy and occupancy costs can significantly affect the profitability of our operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities. The SEC has defined critical accounting policies as those that are both most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results and require our most difficult, complex or subjective judgments or
estimates. Based on this definition, we believe our critical accounting policies include the following: (i) determining our allowance for doubtful accounts, (ii) inventory valuation, with regard to determining our reserve for excess and
obsolete inventory, (iii) valuing goodwill and intangible assets, (iv) vendor rebates and other promotional incentives, (v) self-insurance reserves and (vi) income taxes. For all financial statement periods presented, there have
been no material modifications to the application of these critical accounting policies.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We analyze customer creditworthiness, accounts receivable balances, payment history, payment terms and historical bad debt levels when
evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts. In instances where a reserve has been recorded for a particular customer, future sales to the customer are either conducted using cash-on-delivery terms or the account is closely
monitored so that agreed-upon payments are received prior to orders being released. A failure to pay results in held or cancelled orders. Our accounts receivable balance was $44,189 and $42,876, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts of $2,815
and $2,900, as of June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011, respectively.

Inventory Valuation

We maintain reserves for slow-moving and obsolete inventories. These reserves are primarily based upon inventory age plus specifically identified
inventory items and overall economic conditions. A sudden and unexpected change in consumer preferences or change in overall economic conditions could result in a significant change in the reserve balance and could require a corresponding charge to
earnings. We actively manage our inventory levels to minimize the risk of loss and have consistently achieved a relatively high level of inventory turnover.

Valuation of Goodwill and Intangible Assets

We are required to test goodwill for
impairment at least annually and between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. We have elected to perform our annual tests for
indications of goodwill impairment during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. We test for goodwill impairment at the consolidated level, as we have only a single reporting unit, based on the market capitalization approach. Under this approach
fair value is calculated based upon the market price of common stock multiplied by the number of outstanding shares. Any material adverse change in our business or operations could have a negative effect on our valuation and thus cause an impairment
of our goodwill. There have been no events or changes in circumstances during 2012 or 2011 indicating that goodwill may be impaired. Total goodwill is $30,780 and $20,590 at June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

With the adoption of ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, in 2012, the Company will
eliminate the need to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test if, through qualitative analysis, the Company is able to determine that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of its single reporting unit is less than its carrying
amount. If the Company cannot make this determination it will proceed with the two-step goodwill impairment analysis. The first step, used to identify potential impairment, involves comparing our estimated fair value to our carrying value, including
goodwill. If our estimated fair value exceeds our carrying value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value, there is an indication of potential impairment and the second step is performed to
measure the amount of impairment. If required, the second step involves calculating an implied fair value of our goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in a manner similar to the amount of goodwill calculated in a business
combination, by measuring the excess of the estimated fair value, as determined in the first step, over the aggregate estimated fair values of the individual assets, liabilities and identifiable intangibles as if we were being acquired in a business
combination. If the implied fair value of our goodwill exceeds the carrying value of our goodwill, there is no impairment. If the carrying value of our goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of our goodwill, an impairment charge is recorded for the
excess.

Intangible assets with finite lives are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
value may not be recoverable. Cash flows expected to be generated by the related assets are estimated over the assets useful lives based on updated projections. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying amount of the asset may not be
recoverable, the potential impairment is measured based on a projected discounted cash flow model. There have been no events or changes in circumstances during 2012 or 2011 indicating that the carrying value of our finite-lived intangible assets are
not recoverable. Total finite-lived intangible assets as of June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011 were $11,476 and $5,115, respectively.

The assessment of the recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets will be impacted if estimated future cash flows are not achieved.

Vendor Rebates and Other Promotional Incentives

We participate in various rebate
and promotional incentives with our suppliers, including volume and growth rebates, annual incentives and promotional programs. In accounting for vendor rebates, we follow the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 605-50
(Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, No. 02-16, Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendorand EITF No. 03-10, Application of Issue No. 02-16 by Resellers to Sales
Incentives Offered to Consumers by Manufacturers).

We generally record consideration received under these incentives as a reduction of
cost of goods sold; however, in certain circumstances, we record marketing-related consideration as a reduction of marketing costs incurred. We may receive consideration in the form of cash and/or invoice deductions.

We record consideration that we receive for volume and growth rebates and annual incentives as a reduction of cost of goods sold. We systematically and
rationally allocate the consideration for those incentives to each of the underlying transactions that results in progress by us toward earning the incentives. If the incentives are not probable and reasonably estimable, we record the incentives as
the underlying objectives or milestones are achieved. We record annual incentives when we earn them, generally over the agreement period. We record consideration received to promote and sell the suppliers products as a reduction of our costs,
as the consideration is typically a reimbursement of costs incurred by us. If we received consideration from the suppliers in excess of our costs, we record any excess as a reduction of cost of goods sold.

Self-Insurance Reserves

Effective October 1, 2011, we began maintaining a partially self-insured group medical program. The program contains individual as well as aggregate
stop loss thresholds. The amount in excess of the self-insured levels are fully insured by third party insurers. Liabilities associated with this program are estimated in part by considering historical claims experience and medical cost trends.
Projections of future loss expenses are inherently uncertain because of the random nature of insurance claims occurrences and could be significantly affected if future occurrences and claims differ from these assumptions and historical trends.

Income Taxes

The determination of our provision for income taxes requires significant judgment, the use of estimates and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. Our provision for income taxes primarily
reflects a combination of income earned and taxed in the various U.S. federal and state jurisdictions. Jurisdictional tax law changes, increases or decreases in permanent differences between book and tax items, accruals or adjustments of accruals
for unrecognized tax benefits, and our change in the mix of earnings from these taxing jurisdictions all affect the overall effective tax rate.

Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting policies with our Audit Committee, and the Audit Committee has
reviewed the above disclosure. Our condensed consolidated financial statements contain other items that require estimation, but are not as critical as those discussed above. These other items include our calculations for bonus accruals, depreciation
and amortization. Changes in estimates and assumptions used in these and other items could have an effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

On April 25, 2011, the Borrowers and the Guarantors entered into the New Credit Agreement with the lenders from time to time party thereto, Chase, as
Administrative Agent, and the other parties thereto described in more detail above under the caption Liquidity and Capital Resources in the MD&A. Our primary market risks are related to fluctuations in interest rates related to
borrowings under our current credit facilities.

As of June 29, 2012, we had an aggregate $61,605 of indebtedness outstanding under the
New Revolving Credit Facility and New Term Loan Facility that bore interest at variable rates. A 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would decrease our after tax earnings by approximately $363 per annum, holding other variables
constant.

|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of
our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), as
of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. The evaluation included certain internal control areas in which we have made and are continuing to make changes to improve and enhance controls. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls
and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and
procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at
the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal period that may have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
