PART I

Item 1.  Business.

General

     Silver Diner, Inc. (the "Company" or "Silver Diner") was incorporated in
Delaware in April 1994 under the name Food Trends Acquisition Corporation
("FTAC"). In March 1996, a subsidiary of the Company merged with Silver Diner
Development, Inc., a Virginia corporation ("SDDI"), which was formed in and
operated Silver Diner restaurants since 1987. Silver Diner Limited Partnership
("SDLP"), of which SDDI was the general partner, operated the first three Silver
Diner restaurants. In June 1996, the Company acquired all of the limited partner
interests in SDLP for a purchase price of $2.472 million and 84,000 warrants to
purchase shares of the Common Stock at $8.00 per share. Unless the context
otherwise requires, references to the Company or Silver Diner also include FTAC,
SDDI and their wholly owned subsidiaries.

     The Company's executive offices are located at 11806 Rockville Pike,
Rockville, Maryland 20852 and its telephone number is (301) 770-0333. The
Company's Common Stock presently trades on The OTC Bulletin Board ("OTCBB")
under the symbol "SLVR" (See Item 5).

Business

     The Company currently operates ten Silver Diner restaurants in the
Washington Metropolitan Area, one in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and one in
Virginia Beach, Virginia, serving breakfast, lunch, dinner and late night meals.
The Company targets the growing number of customers tired of traditional fast
food whose need for a quick, high-quality, reasonably priced meal is not being
adequately served by existing family or casual theme restaurants; the Company
capitalizes on the timeless diner theme to uniquely address this need. By
attracting a broad range of customer segments, and maintaining extended
operating hours, a diverse menu and convenient locations, the Company is able to
compete effectively in the fast food, family and casual dining segments of the
restaurant industry, contributing to the significant sales volumes of its units.
The Company also offers Silver Diner To Go, which features a range of carry
out/delivery options targeting the growing "home meal replacement" market.

     The restaurants typically are open for business from 7:00 a.m. to midnight
on weekdays and from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. on weekends. The Silver Diner menu
strategy is to serve generous portions of made-from-scratch cooking at prices
competitive with traditional family dining restaurants. The average check per
customer is approximately $8.50 and the average dining time is approximately 45
minutes. For the last fiscal year the Silver Diner restaurants, in operation for
the full year, had sales ranging from $1.7 million to $4.3 million with average
unit sales of $2.5 million and an average of 222 seats. Management attributes
the sales volumes of its units to its ability to attract a broad range of
customer segments, extended operating hours, diverse menu and convenient
locations. Management believes it has established a strong company mission and
culture by emphasizing a sense of ownership and entrepreneurship in its
employees and by providing frequent training, recognition and development of its
operations management team.

     Diners have been indigenous to the United States for more than 100 years.
Since opening the first Silver Diner restaurant in 1989, the Company has
capitalized on the diner restaurant theme to uniquely address the customers'
need of where to go for quick, high quality meals at reasonable prices. Key
elements that differentiate Silver Diner restaurants from other restaurants
include:

          Broad and diverse menu combining "traditional diner" items with
contemporary regional specialties - The menu includes a broad range of
made-from-scratch meal choices featuring traditional home-style diner fare and
all-day breakfast, as well as more contemporary "heart healthy" selections and
regional specialty items. Each Silver Diner restaurant bakes most of its pies
and cakes on the premises and features a carryout section offering its full
menu.

          Classic, readily recognizable diner exterior, in combination with a
comfortable diner interior decor and atmosphere - The visually striking exterior
of the Silver Diner restaurants is both familiar and distinctive, combining
polished stainless steel, glass block and neon lighting traditional to old-style
diners with more

                                        2

<PAGE>

contemporary tile, accent colors and a 25-foot clock tower. Similarly, the
Silver Diner restaurants' interior combines traditional diner motifs such as a
counter area with seating, booths and tabletop old style jukeboxes with a
contemporary open kitchen and ambient dining room lighting. The result of these
contrasting elements produces a high energy, fun, nostalgic atmosphere that is
also comfortable.

          Extended operating hours with four meal periods - Silver Diner's
breadth of entree selection, its beer and wine service and night time ambiance
allow it to generate close to 50% of its business at dinner and late night, the
most profitable meal periods. Additionally, the Silver Diner's extended hours
and diverse menu affords it two extra meal periods - breakfast and late night.
Together, these four meal periods provide the Silver Diner the opportunity to
generate significantly greater customer counts per facility than traditional
two- or three-meal period full-service restaurants.

          Rapid meal service resulting in a table turnover rate significantly
above industry averages for full service restaurants - Silver Diner's menu, food
preparation techniques and kitchen engineering account for its rapid meal
service. The Silver Diner's physical plant and kitchen layout allow it to serve
the majority of meals in approximately 10 minutes, providing quick turnover and
further improving productivity. The Silver Diner employs a food preparation and
storage process that incorporates a type of "sous vide" production technique
enabling it to efficiently make a wide range of scratch-cooking recipes with
reduced labor hours, kitchen preparation and raw ingredient storage area. As a
result, Silver Diner restaurants are able to achieve high quality, consistency
and excellent productivity despite the broad menu.

          Generous portions and moderate prices with entrees from $6.99 and up -
Management believes the Silver Diner delivers outstanding value by providing
generous portions of fresh, high quality food at affordable prices. Appetizers
start at $4.99, entrees range from $6.99 to $12.99, and full meals are available
at moderate prices including a 10% senior citizen discount and "blue plate
specials."

</TABLE>

          The Company leases its corporate offices at 11806 Rockville Pike,
Rockville, Maryland, which is the location of the original Silver Diner
restaurant. All operating units except the Reston, Virginia location are leased.

          Management's near-term focus is to continue to improve operations in
the existing restaurants, to maximize the cash flow generation of the business
and to refine opportunities for future growth. The Company believes the greater
Washington area can support twelve to fifteen Silver Diner restaurants. Under
the right circumstances, the Company may resume its penetration of this market
in order to take advantage of increased name recognition and economies of scale
in advertising, management and overhead. Management believes that there are
other major metropolitan areas in the Mid-Atlantic region that can support a
similar concentration of Silver Diner restaurants and may, in the future, pursue
expansion in these markets in a manner similar to the greater Washington area.
Expansion into any markets outside of the Mid-Atlantic region may include area
joint ventures or franchises. There is no assurance that the Company's expansion
plans will be realized or that future Silver Diner restaurants will be favorably
received.

          Marketing. Management focuses on providing its customers with superior
food quality, service and perceived value in a distinctive atmosphere and has
relied primarily on its eye-catching appearance, customer satisfaction and word
of mouth to obtain repeat customers as well as to attract new clientele. Since
1998, the Company has focused its marketing efforts on direct marketing, which
allows the Company to target customers and create a relationship in the
neighborhoods surrounding each restaurant. The Company's penetration in its core
Washington Metro market has generated economies of scale.

                                        4

          Menu. The Silver Diner menu includes a broad range of dining
alternatives featuring traditional diner fare, including soups, sandwiches,
hamburgers, "blue plate specials" as well as more contemporary "heart healthy"
items, salads, grilled chicken, seafood, pasta and regional specialties. Silver
Diner's full breakfast menu, including omelets, pancakes and waffles, is
available throughout the day and night. The menu includes numerous entrees that
rotate on a seasonal basis, as well as signature homemade pies and cakes baked
on premises. High-quality ingredients are used for all menu items, including
Silver Diner's own unique gravies, sauces and dressings. Silver Diner's recipes
are prepared for the way management believes people eat today with an emphasis
on fresh ingredients, low salt and cholesterol-free oil. In addition, Silver
Diner's "heart healthy" menu features several low-fat popular items formulated
to exceed USDA "heart healthy" dietary guidelines. Silver Diner restaurants also
serve beer and wine in all locations except Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and
non-alcoholic specialty beverages.

          Purchasing. The Company purchases items on a centralized basis and
negotiates directly with suppliers for food and beverage products to ensure
consistent quality and freshness of products as well as to obtain competitive
prices. Food and supplies are shipped directly to the Silver Diner restaurants.
Upon delivery, a kitchen manager or supervisor inspects all food and beverage
products for quality and freshness. The Company does not maintain a central
product warehouse or commissary. The Company's food and supplies are available
from a wide number of suppliers. Therefore, Silver Diner is not dependent on any
particular source of supplies.

          Customer Satisfaction/Quality Control. The Company has a variety of
programs to measure its customer satisfaction, including comment cards, exit
interviews, and frequent visits by supervisory management. Through the use of
these techniques, senior management receives valuable feedback from customers
and through prompt action, demonstrates a continued interest in meeting customer
needs and desires. In addition, Silver Diner staff performs a variety of quality
checks and are authorized to not serve any products that do not meet Silver
Diner's quality standards.

Competition

          The restaurant industry is intensely competitive with respect to
price, service, location and food quality. The Company competes with fast food
and family style restaurants with ready to cook food and take-out. Silver Diner
restaurants are located in areas of high concentration of such restaurants.
There are many well-established food service competitors with substantially
greater financial and other resources than the Company and with substantially
longer operating histories. These competitors will compete with the Company in
obtaining premium locations for restaurants (e.g., shopping malls and strip
shopping centers) and in attracting and retaining employees. In addition,
national food service chains or other companies could introduce a multi-unit
chain of food service establishments that use one or more of the concepts that
resemble those of the Company.

          The restaurant industry is also affected by changes in consumer tastes
and eating patterns of the general public; national, regional or local economic
conditions; demographic trends; traffic patterns; as well as the type, number
and location of competitors. In addition, factors such as inflation, increased
food, labor and benefit costs and a lack of experienced management and hourly
employees may adversely affect the restaurant industry in general and the
Company in particular. In addition, the poor performance of the Company's stock
has hindered the ability to attract and retain qualified employees.

          The Company believes that its distinctive diner concept, attractive
price-value relationship and quality of food and service enable it to
differentiate itself from its competitors. While the Company believes that its
restaurants are distinctive in design and operating concept, it is aware of
restaurants that operate with similar concepts. The Company believes that its
ability to compete effectively will continue to depend upon its ability to offer
high-quality, moderately priced food in a full-service distinctive dining
environment.

Employees

          As of December 30, 2001, the Company had 894 employees, of whom 12 are
corporate personnel, 51 are restaurant management personnel (including
managers-in-training), and the remainder are hourly restaurant personnel. None
of the Company's employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. The
Company considers its employee relations to be good.

          The management staff of a typical Silver Diner restaurant consists of
one Operating Partner (general manager) and four assistant managers, including a
kitchen manager and a service manager. Each Silver Diner restaurant also employs
approximately 75 associates on a part-time and full-time basis.

          Restaurant Personnel. The Company has established a strong company
mission focusing on culture and values and emphasizing a sense of ownership and
entrepreneurship that empowers its people to achieve professional and personal
excellence. Management believes that its people are its most valuable asset and
has a variety of programs to provide training, recognition and development of
its management and associates to their full potential. Non-management employees'
performance is tracked daily through productivity measurements that are
established as an integral part of a system of frequent incentive awards.

          Restaurant Operating Partner Program. To attract and retain talented
management, the Company's compensation program is very competitive. Management
believes that a key component for long-term success is for each restaurant to be
led by a general manager who lives in the community and has a long-term
commitment to that restaurant's success. Accordingly, management has established
a Restaurant Operating Partner Program. Under the Program, the Operating Partner
receives an annual salary and periodic, profit based, cash bonuses equal to a
percentage of the restaurant's operating income. In addition, each operating
partner is required to purchase $5,000 of Common Stock at market value and can
potentially receive an annual award up to $5,000 and 3,000 shares of Common
Stock, dependent upon achievement of performance criteria as established and
evaluated by the Board of Directors. This program is a successor to previous
Operating Partner plans. The stock awards under these plans are awarded at the
discretion of the Company's Board of Directors.

          Selection, Training and Supervision. Management has developed specific
profiles and protocols used to interview and select its management and associate
staff. Management personnel are required to participate in a sixty-day training
program emphasizing the Company's operating procedures as well as management
development programs. Each associate also participates in a standardized
training program ranging from two to eight days (depending on position), which
utilizes testing results to ensure all associates achieve a specified standard
of performance.

Government Regulations

          The Company is subject to numerous federal, state and local laws
affecting health, sanitation and safety standards as well as to state and local
licensing regulation of the sale of alcoholic beverages. The Company has
appropriate licenses from regulatory authorities allowing it to sell beer, wine
and liquor (except in Cherry Hill, New Jersey where the Company does not sell
alcohol), and has food service licenses from local health authorities. The
Company's licenses to sell alcoholic beverages must be renewed annually and may
be suspended or revoked at any time for cause, including violation by the
Company or its employees of any law or regulation pertaining to alcoholic
beverage control, such as those regulating the minimum age of patrons or
employees, advertising, wholesale purchasing and inventory control. The
Company's failure to obtain or retain liquor or food service licenses could have
a material adverse effect on its operation. To reduce this risk, each restaurant
is operated with procedures in accordance with complete compliance with
applicable code and regulations. There can be no assurance, however, that such
approvals and licenses for new restaurants will be obtained and, if obtained,
will be renewed or not revoked.

                                        6

<PAGE>

         The Company is subject in certain states to "dram-shop" statutes, which
generally provide a person injured by an intoxicated person the right to recover
damages from an establishment that wrongfully served alcoholic beverages to the
intoxicated person. The Company carries liquor liability coverage as part of its
existing comprehensive general liability insurance. The Company has never been
named as a defendant in a lawsuit involving "dram-shop" statutes.

         The development and construction of additional restaurants will be
subject to compliance with applicable zoning, land use and environmental
regulations. The Company's operations are also subject to federal and state
minimum wage laws governing such matters as working conditions, overtime and tip
credits and other employee matters.

         Management believes it is in compliance with all current applicable
regulations relating to restaurant accommodations for the disabled including the
Federal Americans With Disabilities Act of 1992.

Trademarks

         Management believes that its trademarks and servicemarks are valuable
to the marketing of its restaurants and that it has substantial rights in such
trademarks and servicemarks for the Silver Diner name, based upon the Company's
actual usage and constructive usage derived from its U.S. trademark. The Company
intends to aggressively protect its marks from infringement and competing
claims. However, there can be no assurance that the Company's marks, even as,
and if, registered do not or will not violate the proprietary rights of others,
that the marks will be upheld if challenged, or that the Company will not be
prevented from using the marks, any of which could have a material adverse
effect on the Company. Management's policy is to pursue registration of its
marks whenever possible and to oppose vigorously any infringements of its marks,
the success of which cannot be assured.

Item 2.  Property.

expenses were offset by a write-off of $186,986 of deferred rent related to the
Towson diner, resulting in a net expense of $108,740. The cash expenditures
related to the closing of the diner were $254,673. Additional information

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations. Forward Looking Disclosure

         Certain information included herein contains statements that are
forward-looking, such as statements relating to plans for future expansion and
other business development activities as well as operating costs, capital
spending, financial sources and the effects of competition. Such forward-looking
information is subject to changes and variations which are not reasonably
predictable and which could significantly affect future results. Accordingly,
such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements
made by or on behalf of the Company. These changes and variations which could
significantly affect future results include, but are not limited to, development
and construction activities, including delays in opening new diners, acceptance
of the Silver Diner concept, increased competition in the restaurant industry,
weather conditions, the quality of the Company's restaurant operations, the
adequacy of operating and management controls, dependence on discretionary
consumer spending, dependence on existing management, inflation and general
economic conditions, and changes in federal or state laws or regulations.

General

         The following discussion includes comments and data relating to the
Company's financial condition and results of operations for the three-year
period ended December 30, 2001. As of this date, the Company operates 12 diners,
10 in the Washington metropolitan area, one in Cherry Hill, New Jersey and one
in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The Company is currently working to improve the
performance of its existing units and is not expanding. If satisfactory results
are achieved by the existing restaurants, the Company, may, under the
appropriate circumstances, resume expansion. Future plans may include expanding
the Silver Diner chain in the Mid-Atlantic region through opening Company-owned
restaurants and possibly through the development of franchise or joint venture
relationships. The following table reflects the change in number of restaurants
over the three-year period.

and 12 or 13 weeks, respectively. Fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999 consisted of
52 weeks and ended on December 30, 2001, December 31, 2000 and January 2, 2000,
respectively.

Year Ended December 30, 2001 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2000

         Net sales for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2001 ("Fiscal 2001")
of $31,833,252 increased $273,717 or .9% compared to the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2000. ("Fiscal 2000"). Full year of operations during fiscal 2001
in Virginia Beach, Virginia and Gaithersburg, Maryland ("New Stores") resulted
in an increase of $1,531,161 while same store sales (sales for Silver Diner
restaurants open throughout both periods being compared, excluding the initial
six months of operations during which sales are typically higher than normal)
decreased $1,257,444 or 4.3% compared to Fiscal 2000. Sales for the twelve weeks
ended December 30, 2001 (Fourth Quarter 2001) showed increased same store sales
of $84,160, or 1.3% while new store sales declined $272,133 or 23.2%.

         Cost of sales, consisting of food and beverage costs, increased from
26.7% of net sales in Fiscal 2000 to 27.4% of net sales in Fiscal 2001. The
increase of 0.7% was attributable to higher food costs as well as an increasing
emphasis on value oriented menu offerings.

         Labor, which consists of restaurant management and hourly employee
wages and bonuses, payroll taxes, workers' compensation insurance, group health
insurance and other benefits increased 0.8% to 35.5% of net sales for Fiscal
2001. The increase of $360,262 was due, in part, to higher hourly labor costs.
Labor for same stores decreased 0.6%, or $63,604, offset by new store labor
increases of $423,866.

         Operating expenses, which consist of all restaurant operating costs
other than cost of sales, labor, occupancy and depreciation, including supplies,
utilities, repairs and maintenance and advertising decreased 2.1% to 16.6% of
net sales for Fiscal 2001, compared to 18.7% for Fiscal 2000. A decrease of
$450,000 in promotion and marketing expenses as well a reduction of $185,000 in
administrative costs accounted for a substantial portion of the change.

         Occupancy, which is composed primarily of rent, property taxes and
property insurance, increased $514,096 for Fiscal 2001 compared to Fiscal 2000.
As a percentage of net sales occupancy expenses increased 1.5% in Fiscal 2001 to
11.2% compared to 9.7% in Fiscal 2000. The majority of the dollar increase, or
$279,000 was attributable to the New Stores full year of operations. In
addition, higher property insurance premiums and common area maintenance costs
contributed to higher occupancy expenses in Fiscal 2001.

         Restaurant depreciation and amortization decreased $50,837 to
$1,253,409 for Fiscal 2001. Depreciation and amortization expense for same
stores decreased approximately $158,000, a result of the Company write-down, in
Fiscal 2000, of the assets of two restaurants.

         The Company periodically evaluates its asset base for potential
impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill, utilizing projections of
undiscounted cashflows in order to determine the future recoverability of an
asset or group of assets. In Fiscal 2000, the trends of operations of two
restaurants indicated the undiscounted cashflows from their operations would be
less than the net book value of the assets of the two restaurants. As a result,
during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2000 the Company recorded an impairment loss
of $1,980,116. Management believes that it has taken all of the appropriate
actions regarding the carrying value of its' assets and that no further material
impairment exists at this time. The Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS
No. 142 on December 31, 2001 and will complete its initial assessment of
goodwill impairment by June 29, 2002. The impact of impairment, if any, will be
recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle during the
first quarter of fiscal 2002.

         On November 16, 2001, the Company entered into a lease termination
agreement to close its diner in Towson, Maryland. The Company incurred $295,726
of expense in connection with terminating its lease and closing the diner. These
expenses were offset by a write-off of $186,986 of deferred rent related to the
Towson diner for a net expense of $108,740. The Company had cash expenditures of
$254,673 related to the closing of the diner.

         Preopening expenses of $318,282 in Fiscal 2000 were principally labor
costs (wages, taxes and benefits) incurred prior to opening the New Stores.
There were no pre-opening expenses in Fiscal 2001.

                                       12

         General and administrative expenses include the cost of corporate
administrative personnel and functions, multi-unit management and restaurant
management recruitment and initial training. Such expenses were $2,873,327 for
Fiscal 2001, a decrease of $506,631. As a percentage of net sales, the Company's
administrative overhead decreased 1.7% to 9.0% in Fiscal 2001 from 10.7% in
Fiscal 2000. This was primarily due to a decrease in investor relations
expenses, professional fees and travel costs.

         Abandoned site costs were $267,448 in Fiscal 2001. The decision to
abandon plans to construct a diner in the Pentagon Row site in Arlington
Virginia led to Fiscal 2001 expenses of $267,448 for the lease termination and
other fees. Legal, architectural and design costs of $102,012 for Pentagon Row
were written off in Fiscal 2000.

         The Company earned $65,641 in investment income for Fiscal 2001,
compared to investment income of $91,759 for Fiscal 2000. The decrease is
primarily a result of reduced levels of cash available for investment as well as
lower yields. Interest expense was $191,155 for Fiscal 2001 and $85,963 for
Fiscal 2000. The increase in interest expense was attributable to the increase
in funds borrowed under the Company's line of credit.

         Net loss for Fiscal 2001 was $1,899,451 or $0.16 per share, compared to
a net loss of $4,195,564 or $0.36 per share in Fiscal 2000. Excluding the impact
of the charge for impairment of long-lived assets, the net loss for fiscal year
2000 was $2,215,448 or $0.19 per share. Weighted average shares outstanding
remained essentially unchanged in 2001 versus 2000. Management expects that the
Company will continue to incur losses, but at reduced levels due to reductions
in administrative expenses, until revenues and operating efficiencies are
sufficient to absorb the general and administrative expenses associated with
developing and running the company.

Year Ended December 31, 2000 Compared to the Year Ended January 2, 2000

         Net sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 ("Fiscal 2000")
of $31,559,535 increased $2,402,169 or 8.2% compared to the fiscal year ended
January 2, 2000 ("Fiscal 1999"). Substantially all of the increased sales were
attributable to new unit openings in Virginia Beach, Virginia and Gaithersburg,
Maryland.

         Comparable Company sales (sales for Silver Diner restaurants open
throughout both periods being compared, excluding the initial six months of
operations during which sales are typically higher than normal) were flat
compared to Fiscal 1999. Same store customer counts were down 5.2%, while check
averages increased 5.8%. The Company also had a 6.5% decrease in take-out sales
further eroding the gains achieved in the average check. The Company believes
the reversal of nine consecutive quarters of same store sales increases was
primarily caused by three factors. First, the more contemporary menu implemented
in April 2000 did not meet the expectations of our customers; second, the price
action taken at the time of the new menu implementation met some consumer
resistance and lastly, the marketing activities employed in 2000 were not
adequate to move the business above the record levels achieved in Fiscal 1999.

         Cost of sales, consisting primarily of food and beverage costs,
increased from 26.1% of net sales in Fiscal 1999 to 26.7% of net sales in Fiscal
2000. The increase of 0.6% was attributable to increased costs in the existing
stores and higher costs in the New Stores related to slightly different menu
offerings as well as the initial cost escalation normally associated with the
new unit openings.

         Labor, which consists of restaurant management and hourly employee
wages and bonuses, payroll taxes, workers' compensation insurance, group health
insurance and other benefits increased 0.9% to 34.7% of net sales for Fiscal
2000. The increase was largely due to the overstaffing of New Stores during the
first several periods of operation.

         Operating expenses, which consist of all restaurant operating costs
other than cost of sales, labor, occupancy and depreciation, including supplies,
utilities, repairs and maintenance and advertising increased 0.7% to 18.7% of
net sales for Fiscal 2000, compared to 18.0% for Fiscal 1999. Increased supply,
utility, maintenance costs, credit card fees and advertising expenses accounted
for the majority of the increase. The New Stores had only a minimal impact on
these expenses.

         Occupancy, which is composed primarily of rent, property taxes and
property insurance, increased $175,369 for Fiscal 2000 compared to Fiscal 1999.
As a percentage of net sales occupancy expenses decreased 0.2%

                                       13

<PAGE>

in Fiscal 2000 to 9.6% compared to 9.8% in Fiscal 1999. Nearly all of the dollar
increase was attributable to the New Stores and was offset by a $59,311 rent
refund, relating to a partial taking of the parking lot under the right of
eminent domain at the Springfield location. The company does not anticipate a
significant negative impact on sales as a result of the partial taking of the
parking lot.

         Restaurant depreciation and amortization increased $131,849 to
$1,304,246 for Fiscal 2000. Approximately two thirds of the increase was a
result of depreciation associated with the addition of the New Stores. The
remainder of the increase was a product of upgrading the existing asset base.

         General and administrative expenses include the cost of corporate
administrative personnel and functions, multi-unit management and restaurant
management recruitment and initial training. Such expenses were $3,379,958 for
Fiscal 2000, an increase of $246,885, or 7.9%, compared to Fiscal 1999. The
dollar increase in expenses was largely due to the recruitment and hiring of a
vice president of operations coupled with a re-alignment of field management
personnel and the recruitment, hiring and training of store management personnel
for the New Stores. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative
expenses remained flat at 10.7% for Fiscal 2000. The Company's administrative
overhead as a percentage of net sales remains above the industry average
primarily due to the cost of the corporate management team required to support
the Company's growth plans, which have been slower than anticipated.

         Preopening expenses of $318,282 were principally labor costs (wages,
taxes and benefits) incurred prior to opening the New Stores.

         The Company periodically evaluates its' asset base for potential
impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill, utilizing projections of
undiscounted cashflows in order to determine the future recoverability of an
asset or group of assets. Based on that evaluation, the trends of operations of
two restaurants indicated the undiscounted cashflows from their operations would
be less than the net book value of the assets of the two restaurants. As a
result, during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2000 the Company recorded an
impairment loss of $1,980,116. Management believes that it has taken all of the
appropriate actions regarding the carrying value of its' assets and that no
further material impairment exists at this time.

         The $102,012 write off of abandoned site costs is related to legal,
architectural and design costs for the Pentagon Row site in Arlington, Virginia
which the Company decided not to construct.

    The Company earned $91,759 in investment income for Fiscal 2000, compared to
investment income of $100,917 for Fiscal 1999. The decrease is primarily a
result of reduced levels of cash available for investment, stemming from the
construction of the New Stores. Interest expense was $85,963 for Fiscal 2000 and
$23,826 for Fiscal 1999. The increase in interest expense was attributable to
the increase in funds utilized under the Company's line of credit.

         Net loss for Fiscal 2000 was $4,195,564 or $0.36 per share, compared to
a loss of $971,879 or $0.08 per share in Fiscal 1999. Excluding the impact of
the charge for impairment of long-lived assets, the net loss for Fiscal 2000 was
$2,215,448 or $0.19 per share. Weighted average shares outstanding remained
essentially unchanged in 2000 versus 1999. Management expects that the Company
will continue to incur losses until such time as revenue generation from
increased market penetration operating efficiencies are sufficient to absorb the
general and administrative infrastructure costs currently in place.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

         The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets" which requires that upon adoption, amortization of goodwill will cease,
and instead, the carrying value of goodwill will be evaluated for impairment on
an annual basis. Identifiable intangible assets will continue to be amortized
over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS 121
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of". SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2001. As of the date of adoption, the Company expects to have unamortized
goodwill in the amount of $1.7 million, which will be subject to the transition
provisions of SFAS 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $185,000
for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2001. The Company will adopt the
provisions of SFAS No. 142 on December 31, 2001, and will complete its initial
assessment of goodwill impairment by June 29, 2002. The impact of impairment, if
any is determined during such an assessment, will be recorded as a cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle during the first quarter of fiscal
2002.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Silver Diner's operations are subject to significant external
influences beyond its control. Any one, or any combination of such factors,
could materially impact the actual results of the Diner's operations. Those
factors include, but are not limited to: (I) changes in general economic
conditions, (II) changes in consumer spending habits (III) changes in the
availability and cost of raw materials, (IV) changes in the availability of
capital resources, (V) changes in the prevailing interest rates, (VI) changes in
the competitive environment and (VII) changes in Federal or State laws.

         At December 30, 2001, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were
$1,839,091, an increase of $1,293,860 over Fiscal 2000 as a result of additional
borrowings on available credit facilities. The Company's working capital deficit
was $230,593 compared to a deficit of $893,151 at December 31, 2000, an
improvement of $662,558 during 2001 as a result of additional borrowings.
Additionally, the Company's long-term debt was $2,557,317 and stockholders'
equity was $11,459,263 at December 30, 2001.

         Based on the Company's current operating plan, the Company believes
that the cash generated from operating activities, coupled with borrowings on
its line of credit facility and additional cost reductions, where necessary,
will be sufficient to meet the anticipated needs for working capital, capital
expenditures and non-cancelable lease obligations for at least the next 12
months. Thereafter, if cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy
the Company's liquidity needs, the Company may seek to obtain additional
capacity on its line of credit, sell convertible debt securities, subject to
consent being received from the Company's bank, or sell additional equity
securities. However, no assurances can be given that any such addition financing
sources will be available on acceptable terms or at all.

         The Company closed its diner in Towson, Maryland on November 18, 2001.
Expenses related to termination of the lease and closure of the diner were
$295,726, offset by a write off of deferred rent of $186,986, for a net expense
of $108,740. The cash expenditures related to the closing of the diner were
$254,673.

         The Company has a loan agreement with its bank whereby the Company may
borrow, through December 31, 2002 up to $3,000,000. As of December 30, 2001, the
Company has borrowed $2,500,000 under the agreement. Terms of the loan agreement
limit the Company's ability to incur new debt, which may restrict the Company's
ability to expand and to finance working capital requirements. As defined in the
loan agreement, the Company may draw additional funds only to the extent that
its cash flow is equal to or greater than 1.3 times the debt service coverage
requirements. The amount borrowed in 2000, $1,000,000, was payable interest only
until December 1, 2001. Principal and interest are payable monthly beginning
January 1, 2002 through December 1, 2007. The amount borrowed in 2001,
$1,500,000, is payable interest only until December 1, 2002. Principal and
interest are payable monthly beginning January 1, 2003 through December 1, 2008.
Annual principal payments are $166,667 in 2002, $416,667 in 2003 thru 2007 and
$250,000 in 2008.

         Currently, the Company does not meet the debt service coverage
requirements of the loan agreement. Future borrowings under the agreement may be
dependent on the Company meeting the debt service coverage requirements at the
time of the additional borrowing. However, the Company's failure to maintain the
debt service

                                       15

coverage ratio for any quarter including the quarter ended December 30, 2001,
shall not be a default under the loan agreement, if, during the immediately
succeeding quarter the Company achieves a material improvement in the debt
service coverage ratio and demonstrates a reasonable prospect of achieving the
debt service coverage ratio by the beginning of the next quarter.

Impact of Inflation

         Management does not believe that inflation has materially affected the
Company's operating results. Substantial increases in costs and expenses,
particularly food, supplies, labor and operating expenses, could have a
significant impact on the Company's operating results to the extent that such
increases cannot be passed along to customers.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors
Silver Diner, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Silver Diner,
Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 30, 2001 and December 31,
2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for fiscal years ended December 30, 2001,
December 31, 2000 and January 2, 2000. The consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Silver Diner, Inc.
and Subsidiary as of December 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the fiscal years ended December 30,
2001, December 31, 2000 and January 2, 2000, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

            December 30, 2001, December 31, 2000 and January 2, 2000


1.   Organization

     Silver Diner, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiary develop and operate
     the Silver Diner restaurant chain. At December 30, 2001, the Company owned
     and operated 10 diners in the Washington metropolitan area, one in Cherry
     Hill, New Jersey and one in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

2.   Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

     Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations
     of the Company and its subsidiary, Silver Diner Development, Inc. (SDDI).
     All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
     in consolidation.

     Fiscal Year

     The Company operates on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year that ends on the
     Sunday nearest December 31. The fiscal quarters for the Company consist of
     accounting periods of 16, 12, 12, and 12 or 13 weeks, respectively. Fiscal
     years 2001, 2000 and 1999 consisted of 52 weeks and ended on December 30,
     2001, December 31, 2000 and January 2, 2000, respectively.

     Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with
     maturity of three months or less, when acquired, to be cash equivalents.
     Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost which approximates fair value.

     Inventory

     Inventory consists of food and supplies and is stated at the lower of cost
     (first-in, first-out) or market value.

     Property, Equipment and Improvements

     Property, equipment and improvements are recorded at cost. Buildings and
     leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated
     useful lives of the assets or the respective anticipated lease period
     including renewal options, ranging from 20 to 35 years, with a provision
     for salvage value for the Rockville building. Furniture and equipment are
     depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging
     from two to ten years. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line
     method.

     Deferred Lease Costs

     Deferred lease costs represent brokerage commissions, legal fees and
     zoning-related costs primarily related to leases on the land upon which the
     Company constructed its restaurants and are amortized on a straight-line
     basis over the life of the respective lease agreement.

2.   Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

     Pre-opening Costs

     In accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) No. 98-5, "Reporting on the
     Cost of Start-Up Activities," costs associated with start-up activities,
     such as opening a new facility, are expensed as incurred.

     Goodwill

     Cost in excess of fair value of net assets acquired related to the
     acquisition of the minority interest in SDLP is amortized on a
     straight-line basis over 15 years.

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible
     Assets" which requires that upon adoption, amortization of goodwill will
     cease, and instead, the carrying value of goodwill will be evaluated for
     impairment on an annual basis. Identifiable intangible assets will continue
     to be amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment in
     accordance with SFAS 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
     Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of". SFAS 142 is effective
     for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. As of the date of
     adoption, the Company expects to have unamortized goodwill in the amount of
     $1.7 million, which will be subject to the transition provisions of SFAS
     142. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $185,000 for the fiscal
     year ended December 30, 2001. The Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS
     No. 142 on December 31, 2001. The Company will complete its initial
     assessment of goodwill impairment by June 29, 2002. The impact of
     impairment, if any is determined during such an assessment, will be
     recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle during
     the first quarter of fiscal 2002.

     Deferred Finance Costs

     Deferred finance costs consist primarily of legal expenses incurred in
     connection with the credit facility are amortized over the term of the loan
     agreement using the straight-line method. Amortization expense for fiscal
     years 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $25,260, $13,948 and $-0-, respectively.

     Deferred Rent

     Deferred rent is recorded and amortized to the extent the total minimum
     rental payments allocated to the current period on a straight-line basis
     exceed or are less than the cash payments required.

     Income Taxes

     The provision for income taxes is based on earnings reported in the
     financial statements. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary
     differences between financial assets and liabilities and those reported for
     income tax purposes.

2.   Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

     Net Loss Per Common Share

     Net loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average
     number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company
     implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128,
     which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share amounts
     and a reconciliation of the respective calculations. The Company incurred a
     net loss for the fiscal years ended December 30, 2001, December 31, 2000
     and January 2, 2000; therefore, all potential common shares are
     antidilutive and are not included in the calculation of diluted net loss
     per share. At December 30, 2001, December 31, 2000 and January 2, 2000,
     there were, respectively, 177,888, 206,151 and 80,713 restricted shares of
     common stock outstanding, issued pursuant to the Restaurant Operating
     Partner Program.

     Evaluation of Long-Lived Assets

     In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
     121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets," the Company
     evaluates the potential impairment of long-lived assets, including
     goodwill, and property and equipment on a restaurant-by-restaurant basis,
     based upon projections of undiscounted cash flows whenever events or
     changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may
     not be fully recoverable. At December 31,2000 based on that evaluation, the
     trends of operations of two restaurants indicated the undiscounted cash
     flows from their operations would be less than the carrying value of the
     long-lived assets of the two restaurants. As a result, during the fourth
     quarter of 2000, the carrying values were written down to the Company's
     estimates of fair value and an impairment charge of $1,980,116 related to
     the two restaurants was recorded. Fair value was estimated utilizing the
     best information available using estimates, judgments and projections.
     During fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company wrote off equipment
     with a net book value of $30,065, $52,126 and $41,400, respectively, which
     is included in depreciation and amortization within the statement of
     operations. The write-off resulted from the elimination of the operational
     usefulness for certain equipment and the identification of obsolete or
     no-longer-in-service equipment. Management believes no additional material
     impairment of these assets exists at December 30, 2001.

     Abandoned Site Costs

     Abandoned site costs includes deferred site costs including legal, design
     and development costs for potential restaurant sites the Company is no
     longer pursuing. On March 2, 2001, the Company executed a lease
     modification agreement in connection with the proposed Silver Diner at
     Pentagon Row. The agreement in part preserved the Company's interest in the
     location until September 7, 2001. On March 30, 2001, the Company exercised
     its option to terminate the lease agreement. During fiscal 2000, the
     Company recorded $102,012 of abandoned site costs related to legal,
     architectural and design costs for the Pentagon Row site. During fiscal
     year 2001, abandoned site costs in connection with the lease termination
     agreement were $267,448.

2.   Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

     Diner Closing Costs

     On November 16, 2001, the Company entered into a lease termination
     agreement to close its diner in Towson, Maryland. The Company incurred
     $295,726 of expense in connection with terminating its lease and closing
     the diner. These expenses were offset by a write-off of $186,986 of
     deferred rent related to the Towson diner.

     Stock-Based Compensation

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for
     Stock-Based Compensation," requires expanded disclosures of stock-based
     compensation arrangements with employees and encourages (but does not
     require) compensation cost to be measured based on fair value of the equity
     instrument awarded (see Note 12). The Company has chosen to continue to
     account for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value
     method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
     "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Related Interpretations."
     Accordingly, compensation costs for stock options is measured as the
     excess, if any of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the
     date of the grant over the amount the employee must pay to acquire the
     stock.

     Reclassification

     Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2001
     presentation.

     Use of Estimates

     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
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
     financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
     during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
     estimates.

3.   Proceeds from Fire Insurance

     In March 2001, the Tysons Corner Silver Diner sustained property damage
     resulting from a fire. The Company received insurance proceeds to repair
     the damaged property and was reimbursed for lost income, net of expenses,
     during the period the diner was closed for repairs, in the amount of
     $114,098.

4.   Acquisition of Minority Interest in Silver Diner Limited Partnership

     On June 13, 1996, the Company purchased all of the limited partnership
     interests in Silver Diner Limited Partnership (SDLP) from the original
     investors for $2,472,000 and 84,000 warrants (New Warrants) to purchase
     common stock at $8.00 per share. The New Warrants were exercisable until
     the earlier of 30 days following a public offering of common stock or
     January 31, 1998. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase
     method and the entire cost of the transaction, $2.8 million, has been
     allocated to goodwill based on the Company's estimate that the fair value
     of the tangible assets acquired approximates book value. The goodwill is
     being amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. Amortization
     expense related to goodwill is $185,000 in fiscal years 2001, 2000 and
     1999.

     bank to extend a $3,000,000 credit facility bearing interest at the rate of
     prime + .50% (5.25% at December 30, 2001). The agreement was amended in May

     requirements. As of December 30, 2001, the Company is not in compliance
     with the debt service coverage requirements. However, the Company's failure
     to maintain the debt service coverage ratio for any quarter including the

     agreement, if, during the immediately succeeding quarter, the Company
     achieves a material improvement in the debt service coverage ratio and
     demonstrates a reasonable prospect of achieving the debt service coverage
     ratio by the beginning of the next quarter.

     reflected in the consolidated financial statements as deferred rent.

     Future minimum annual lease payments as of December 30, 2001 are:

                                 2002     $    2,476,087

     approximately $9,059,000 for income tax purposes that expires in 2009
     through 2021, which may be used to reduce future income tax expense and tax

12.  Stock Compensation Plans

     The Company has the following stock-based compensation plans:

     1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

     The 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan was adopted in September 1996 by the
     Company's Board of Directors and approved by shareholders in June 1997, and
     continues in effect for a term of 10 years. The Company is authorized to
     issue 300,000 shares under the plan to employees who customarily work at
     least 20 hours per week and more than five months in a calendar year, and
     who have been continuously employed by the Company for six months. Under
     the terms of the plan, employees can choose each quarter to have up to 10
     percent of their base earnings (not to exceed $21,250 annually) withheld to
     purchase the Company's common stock. The purchase price of the stock is 85%
     of the lower of its beginning-of-quarter or end-of-quarter market price.
     The Company implemented the plan in August 1998. During fiscal 2001, 2000
     and 1999, 38,279 shares, 27,744 shares and 15,050 shares, respectively,
     were issued under the plan.

     1996 Stock Option Plan

     The 1996 Stock Option Plan was adopted by the Company's Board of Directors
     in September 1996 and approved by the shareholders in June 1997, and
     continues in effect for 10 years. The plan provides for incentive stock
     options and nonqualified stock options. Options may be granted to any
     director, officer, key employee or outside consultant of the Company. Terms
     of the options are set by the Company's Board of Directors and range from
     five to ten years, with the ability to accelerate vesting upon the Company
     achieving certain performance measurements, as predetermined by the Board.
     The Company has reserved 1,750,000 shares of common stock for issuance
     under the plan. A total of 141,500, 163,000 and 600,400 options were
     granted under this plan during fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. A
     total of 264,800 options are outstanding under the plan at December 30,
     2001.

     Restaurant Operating Partners and Restaurant Management Team Programs

     The Restaurant Operating Partner and Restaurant Management Team Programs
     were adopted by the Company's Board of Directors in December 1996 and
     implemented in fiscal year 1997. The programs provide for general managers
     (Operating Partners) and the store manager team (Store Managers) of each of
     the Company's restaurants to share in the profits of their restaurant and
     to participate as equity owners of the Company.

     To participate in the program, employees who became Operating Partners
     prior to January 4, 1999 were required to make an initial investment in
     discounted Company common stock, which may not be sold or otherwise
     transferred by the Operating Partner for a period of five years from the
     date of purchase. Should the

     Restaurant Operating Partners and Restaurant Management Team Programs
     (Continued)

     Operating Partner's employment terminate for any reason other than death or
     disability, the company has the right to repurchase the stock from the
     Operating Partner for the amount of his or her investment. Employees who
     become Operating Partners between January 4, 1999 and December 31, 2001 are
     required to purchase 8,000 shares of Company common stock at market value
     and could potentially receive an annual award up to 10,000 shares of common
     stock, dependent upon achievement of performance criteria as established
     and evaluated by the Board. During 2001, the Board elected to pay $60,500
     in cash awards in lieu of stock to certain operating partners.

     On December 13, 2001, the Board amended the program such that employees who
     become Operating Partners beginning January 1, 2002 and thereafter are
     required to purchase 5,000 shares of Company common stock at market value
     and can potentially receive an annual award of a $5,000 contribution into a
     new 401(k) program and 3,000 shares of common stock, dependent upon
     achievement of performance criteria as established and evaluated by the
     Board. The 401(k) program will be established effective January 1, 2003.
     The first contribution to the 401 (k) program will consist of cash awards
     otherwise payable as of December 30, 2002.

     The plan also provided for annual restricted commons stock awards to Store
     Managers. In 1999, the Company determined that no future stock awards would
     be made to Store Managers subsequent to the January 1, 1999 stock award
     issuances.

     For employees who became Operating Partners prior to January 4, 1999, stock
     awarded at the end of the first year generally vests after the fourth
     anniversary of the award date. For each year thereafter, stock awards
     generally vest after the third anniversary of the award date. For employees
     who became Operating Partners between January 4, 1999 and December 31,
     2001, stock awarded at the end of the first year vests after the fifth
     anniversary of the award date, stock awarded at the end of the second year
     vests after the fourth anniversary of the award date, and stock awarded in
     each subsequent year vests after the third anniversary of each award date.
     For employees who became Operating Partners beginning January 1, 2002 and
     thereafter, stock awarded will vest in the same manner as the existing
     plan. However, for cash awards contributed into the 401(k) program,
     employees become fully vested after having performed five full years of
     service consisting of five full calendar years during which the employee
     works at least 1,000 hours starting with (i) the calendar year in which the
     plan is first established or (ii) if later, the calendar year in which the
     individual is first hired.

     The stock awards under these plans are awarded at the discretion of the
     Company's Board of Directors. The Company has reserved 415,000 shares of
     common stock for issuance under the plan. No shares were issued under the
     plan during fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999.

     Associate Ownership and Profit Sharing Plan--Year 2000

     The Associate Ownership and Profit Sharing Plan for the Year 2000, which
     was adopted by the Company's Board of Directors in December 1999 for
     implementation in fiscal year 2000 and amended in March 2001, provides for
     associates of each of the Company's restaurants to share in the profits of
     their restaurant and to participate as equity owners of the Company. All
     associates employed by the Company as of January 1, 2000

     the numbers of hours worked by each employee during fiscal year 2000, with
     associates working 749 hours or less receiving no profit sharing;
     associates working between 750 and 1,499 hours receiving a one-half portion

     portion. The Company has reserved 100,000 shares of common stock for
     issuance under the plan. The Company issued 79,536 shares of common stock

     adopted by the Company's Board of Directors in December 2000 for
     implementation in fiscal year 2001. As amended in March 2001, it provided
     for associates of each of the Company's restaurants to share in the profits
     of their restaurant. Eligible associates would receive common stock from
     each store's profit pool based on the numbers of hours worked by each
     associate during fiscal year 2001, with associates working 749 hours or
     less receiving no profit sharing; associates working between 750 and 1,499
     hours receiving a one-half portion and associates working 1,500 hours or
     more receiving a full profit sharing portion. Each associate was required
     to be employed by the Company on the last business day of fiscal year 2001
     in order to participate in the profit sharing.

     Pursuant to resolutions adopted by the Company's Board of Directors on
     December 13, 2001, the Company will pay the participants in cash rather
     than in shares of common stock. As of December 30, 2001, $37,700 has been
     accrued.

     1996 Consultant Stock Option and Stock Purchase Plan

     The 1996 Consultant Stock Option and Stock Purchase Plan was adopted by the
     Company's Board of Directors in September 1996, and continues in effect for
     a term of 10 years. The plan provides for the Company's consultants to
     purchase (i) options to purchase shares of common stock in the Company or
     (ii) shares of common stock in the Company, and apply a portion of the fees
     otherwise payable to them by the Company to pay the purchase price for such
     options or common stock. Options under the plan are granted with an
     exercise price at the fair market value of the common stock on the first
     day of each calendar quarter, and are exercisable at any time in whole or
     in part for a period of three years from date of grant and vest
     immediately. The Company records the transactions at the fair value of the
     options granted to the consultant, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing
     model. The Company has reserved 100,000 shares of common stock for issuance
     under the plan. During fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999, no options were
     issued to consultants under this plan. There are no options outstanding
     under the plan at December 30, 2001.

     The 1996 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan

     The 1996 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan was adopted by the
     Company's Board of Directors in September 1996 and approved by shareholders
     in June 1997, and continues in effect for 10 years. Under the plan, as

     The 1996 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (Continued)

     provided that options granted under the plan would be exercisable at any
     time in whole or in part for a period of three years from date of grant,
     and would vest immediately. The plan was subsequently amended in 1999 to
     provide that each non-employee director shall be granted an option to
     purchase 4,000 shares of the Company's common stock at fair market value on
     the date of grant. The options are exercisable at any time in whole or in
     part commencing one year after the date of grant, and expire ten years
     after the date of grant. The Company has reserved 150,000 share of common
     stock for issuance under the plan. A total of 20,000, 20,000 and 27,000
     options were granted under this plan during fiscal years 2001, 2000 and
     1999, respectively. There are 5,000 options outstanding under the plan at
     December 30, 2001.

     Second Amended and Restated 1991 Stock Option Plan

     The Second Amended and Restated 1991 Stock Option Plan for directors,
     officers, key employees and consultants provides for incentive and
     non-qualified stock options. The options generally expire 10 years from the
     date of grant and are exercisable over the period stated in each option.
     The Board of Directors determines the option price (not to be less than
     fair market value for incentive options) at the date of grant. Options
     under the plan are exercisable in full if the Company executes a merger
     agreement or consolidates with another company, if more than 50% of the
     Company's voting stock is acquired by another person or group in an other
     than capital stock transaction, or if Robert T. Giaimo ceases to President
     of the Company. The plan expired in 2001, but all remaining options will
     remain outstanding for the balance of their terms. At December 30, 2001,
     193,276 options are outstanding and no options are available for future
     grants under the plan.

     Second Amended and Restated Earned Ownership Plan

     The Second Amended and Restated Earned Ownership Plan for key employees
     provides for non-qualified stock options. The options generally expire 10
     years from the date of grant, have an option price of $0.0003 and vest 20%
     at date of grant and 20% on each of the next four anniversaries following
     the grant date. Options under the plan are exercisable in full if the
     Company executes a merger agreement or consolidates with another company,
     if more than 50% of the Company's voting stock is acquired by another
     person or group in an other than capital stock transaction, or if Robert T.
     Giaimo ceases to be President of the Company. The plan has no fixed
     expiration date. At December 30, 2001, 34,271 options are outstanding and
     no options are available for future grants under the plan.

     The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in
     accounting for its plans. Compensation cost charged against income under
     the Company's plans was $129,026, $160,142 and $108,627 for the fiscal
     years ended December 30, 2001, December 31, 2000 and January 2, 2000,
     respectively. Had compensation cost been determined in accordance with FASB
     Statement No. 123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share would have
     been the pro forma amounts indicated below:

                                       42

         shares on March 24, 2000, i.e. 50% of $1.00 per share. Under the terms
         of Mr. Abbott's employment agreement, the Company had the right to buy
         back the shares at their purchase price within 60 days if Mr. Abbott
         terminated his employment with the Company during the first three
         years. Also, the Company had the right to apply up to 55,000 of the
         shares purchased by Mr. Abbott from the Company, at the original
         purchase price of $0.50 per share, to repay the outstanding balance on
         a non-interest bearing promissory note from Mr. Abbott to the Company
         in the amount of $32,500, if Mr. Abbott terminated his employment with
         the Company prior to December 31, 2001. The proceeds of the promissory
         note were used by Mr. Abbott to defray moving expenses. Following the
         termination of Mr. Abbott's employment by the Company on May 24, 2001,
         the Company elected not to purchase any of the foregoing shares and
         waived repayment by Mr. Abbott of any outstanding balance due under the
         foregoing promissory note.

(9)      Consists of an option to purchase 100,000 shares at $1.00 per share
         through March 23, 2010, which vested as follows: 30,000 shares on
         December 31, 2001, 20,000 shares on December 31, 2002, 20,000 shares on
         December 31, 2003, and 30,000 shares on December 31, 2004. The option
         expired on May 24, 2001, upon the termination of Mr. Abbott's
         employment on that date.

(10)     Upon the termination of Mr. Abbott's employment on May 24, 2001, the
         Company forgave the $32,500 promissory note referenced in note 8 above.

(11)     Mr. Abbott's employment terminated on May 24, 2001. Per the terms of
         his employment contract, Mr. Abbott's salary was continued until
         November 18, 2001. $72,115 of his salary was paid after the May 24,
         2001 termination.

(12)     Each of these executives is required, as part of their job, to visit
         each of the restaurants. The Company provides compensation of $500.00
         per month ($6,000 per annum) to meet the expenses associated with their
         travel. In addition, Mr. Giaimo receives an education allowance of
         $1,000.00 per month ($12,000 per annum). This allowance covers
         reimbursements of up to $12,000 of his annual expenses related to
         participation in local and national chapters of a professional
         organization.

BENEFIT PLANS

         The Company provides insurance benefits to its officers and other
employees, including health, dental, and life insurance, subject to certain
deductibles and co-payments by employees.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

FOUNDER'S EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT. The Company and Robert T. Giaimo entered into a
Founder's Employment Agreement on August 28, 1995, effective as of March 27,
1996, and amended on November 9, 1998. The base compensation under the Founder's
Employment Agreement is $240,000 per annum, increased annually at a minimum
amount equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index for the Washington,
D.C., Maryland, and Virginia metropolitan area (the "Base Compensation"). Mr.
Giaimo's 2001 base salary was $278,075 per annum, and increased to $286,417 in
2002. Benefits under the agreement include four weeks paid vacation, health and
dental insurance, life and disability insurance, director and officer liability
insurance and a $3,000,000 "split-dollar" life insurance agreement. Perquisites
include an up to $500 per month car allowance, an education fee of $1,000 per
month, and free shift meals.

         The Founder's Employment Agreement had an initial term of five years
and, starting on its first anniversary, was renewable for five years from each
anniversary. If at any such anniversary the Board does not renew, the agreement
will expire five years from such anniversary (the five-year period beginning on
such anniversary is referred to as the "Expiration Term"). The Founder's
Employment Agreement was renewed on December 15, 1999 and, as renewed, expires
in March 2005.

         During the Expiration Term, Mr. Giaimo may, upon at least sixty days
prior written notice, terminate the Founder's Employment Agreement immediately
and such termination shall be an "Involuntary Resignation." If an Involuntary
Resignation occurs, Mr. Giaimo shall be entitled to a severance amount equal to:
(i) his base compensation, including all bonuses, for the immediately preceding
fiscal year (the "Annual Amount"), (ii) divided by 365, and (iii) multiplied by
the number of days remaining in the Expiration Term, provided that the severance
amount paid to Mr. Giaimo due to an Involuntary Resignation shall not exceed
three times the Annual Amount.

                                       44

<PAGE>

         Mr. Giaimo may also terminate the agreement by reason of a material
breach by the Company (as specified in the Founder's Employment Agreement). If
Mr. Giaimo terminates the Founder's Employment Agreement within the first five
years of the agreement for a material breach by the Company, he shall be
entitled to receive the Annual Amount multiplied by ten. If the material breach
occurs after the first five years of the agreement, the Annual Amount shall be
multiplied by five. Additionally, if a termination for a material breach occurs
prior to the earlier of (i) the end of the first five years of the agreement, or
(ii) the completion of an underwritten public offering of the Company's Shares
from which it realizes $15,000,000, then the Company shall be obligated, at the
employee's option, to purchase all of Mr. Giaimo's Shares at fair market value.

         The Company may terminate the agreement upon the death or disability of
Mr. Giaimo or for cause. If terminated for death, the Mr. Giaimo's estate shall
be entitled to receive all accrued compensation plus a severance amount equal to
one year's Base Compensation (as adjusted to the date of death). The decedent's
family will also be provided health insurance for one year from date of death.
If terminated for disability, Mr. Giaimo shall be entitled to receive all
accrued compensation plus a severance amount equal to his then current Base
Compensation for a period of five years, but reduced dollar for dollar by all
amounts received by the employee under disability insurance. If terminated for
cause, Mr. Giaimo shall be entitled to receive all accrued compensation.

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT. The Company and Ype Von Hengst entered into an
Employment Agreement effective as of November 9, 1998. The base salary under the
Employment Agreement is $125,000 per annum through December 31, 1998, $150,000
per annum from January 1, 1999 through December 31, 1999, and increased annually
at a minimum amount equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index for the
Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia metropolitan area beginning January 1,
2000 (the "Base Salary"). Mr. Von Hengst's base salary for 2001 was $158,375 per
annum, and increased to $163,126 in 2002. Benefits under the agreement include
health and dental insurance, life and disability insurance, and participation in
stock options, bonus plans and other benefit plans customarily made available to
executive employees of the Company.

         In consideration of Mr. Von Hengst entering into the agreement, the
Company extended a $100,000 non-recourse loan (the "Loan") to Mr. Von Hengst,
subject to his execution of a promissory note and secured by his 182,881 Shares
in the Company (the "Collateral"). Beginning December 31, 1999, Mr. Von Hengst
is also entitled to an annual bonus of an amount equal to $20,000 plus accrued
and unpaid interest on the Loan (the "Bonus"). The Bonus is not paid directly to
Mr. Von Hengst, but is applied to repay the outstanding principal and interest
under the Loan. The term of the Employment Agreement is from November 9, 1998 to
December 31, 2003.

         Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Von Hengst agrees, except as
required by the performance of his duties, not to disclose or use any
Confidential Information of the Company or its affiliates, which is defined as
all information disclosed to him or known by him as a consequence of or through
his employment with the Company where such information is not generally known in
the trade or industry and where such information refers or relates in any manner
to the business activities of the Company. During the term of the Employment
Agreement and for a period of twelve consecutive months after the termination of
the Employment Agreement, Mr. Von Hengst agrees, except as required by the
performance of his duties, not to induce, attempt to induce, counsel, advise,
solicit or encourage any person to leave the employ of the Company or, with
respect to any person who had left the employ of the Company within the previous
six months, not to engage in any of the above activities in connection with such
former employee's acceptance of employment with any person or entity other than
the Company. For a period of twelve consecutive months after the termination of
the Employment Agreement for any reason other than a termination without cause,
Mr. Von Hengst agrees not to (i) engage in the "diner business" anywhere in the
United States; (ii) engage in competition with the Company within a 10 mile
radius of any Company owned or franchised facility or planned facility; or (iii)
directly or indirectly, either individually or in any other capacity, work for,
consult with or otherwise assist Movenpick, its parent corporation, affiliates
and subsidiaries, in the development of "diners."

         Mr. Von Hengst may terminate his Employment Agreement at any time upon
sixty days written notice ("Voluntary Resignation"). Upon receipt of such
notice, the Company may elect to relieve Mr. Von Hengst of any or

                                       45

<PAGE>

all of his duties or terminate him immediately. The Company may terminate the
agreement for cause (as that term is defined in the Employment Agreement), upon
the death or disability of Mr. Von Hengst, or without cause. If the agreement is
terminated by Voluntary Resignation or for cause, (i) the Company's obligation
to pay the Base Salary, Bonus and medical benefits shall cease immediately on
the date of termination; and (ii) the principal balance under the Loan shall be
extinguished, and all right, title and interest in the Collateral shall vest
immediately with the Company. If the agreement is terminated for death (i) the
Company's obligation to pay the Base Salary, Bonus and medical benefits shall
cease immediately on the date of termination; and (ii) the principal balance
under the Loan shall be extinguished, and all right, title and interest in the
Collateral shall vest with Mr. Von Hengst (or his estate or heirs). If
terminated for disability, defined as the inability to perform the essential
function of the job, with or without accommodation, for at least 180 consecutive
days, (i) Mr. Von Hengst's right to the Base Salary and Bonus shall cease on the
date of termination, (ii) the Company shall make the medical benefits available
to Mr. Von Hengst for a period of eighteen months following termination, the
costs of which shall be paid by the Company for the first twelve months of such
period; and (iii) the principal balance under the Loan shall be extinguished,
and all right, title and interest in the Collateral shall vest with Mr. Von
Hengst (or his estate or heirs). If terminated without cause, (i) Mr. Von Hengst
shall be entitled to the Base Salary, Bonus, and medical benefits for a one year
period commencing with the date of termination; and (ii) the principal balance
under the Loan shall be extinguished, and all right, title and interest in the
Collateral shall vest with Mr. Von Hengst (or his estate or heirs).

         OFFICER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS. The Company has an employment agreement
with Patrick Meskell through March 4, 2004. Although the agreement was not
amended, Mr. Meskell was promoted from Senior Vice President, Human Resources,
to Executive Vice President, Operations with an increase in his base salary to

         The agreement is terminable at any time by either party thereto.
However, if the Company terminates the agreement, the Company will pay the
employee all base salary earned but unpaid on the date of resignation plus three
months base salary. If the employee resigns and provides at least three months
notice, the Company will pay the employee all base salary earned but unpaid on
the date of resignation plus three months base salary payable after resignation
on the same schedule as the salary that was paid before resignation. If the

non-employee directors received an option to purchase 4,000 Shares on June 15,

exercisable at a price equal to 100% of the fair market value on the date of

directors, except for Mr. Collier, each agreed to cancel the following options
for an aggregate of 2,000 shares under the 1996 Non-Employee Director Stock
Option Plan in exchange for new options under the 1996 Stock Option Plan with
similar vesting and exercise prices, but which do not expire until December 18,
2011: (i) a fully vested option for 1,000 shares exercisable at $0.8125 per
share and expiring December 31, 2001; and (ii) a fully vested option for 1,000
shares exercisable at $0.938 per share and expiring March 31, 2002. Mr. Collier

shares under the 1996 Stock Option Plan, fully vested on the date of grant,
exercisable at $0.938 per share and which expires on December 18, 2011. A total
of 70,000 options were surrendered for repricing by non-employee directors.

         Other than the option grants and the reimbursement of certain expenses,
non-employee directors received no other compensation for service as directors
for the year ended December 30, 2001. Mr. Louis Neeb received $2,000 in 2001 as

Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

     SILVER DINER POTOMAC MILLS, INC. Pursuant to lease agreements dated October
14, 1991 and May 27, 1992, the Company leases the Silver Diner restaurant in
Potomac Mills, Virginia (the "Potomac Mills Restaurant") from Silver Diner
Potomac Mills, Inc ("SDPMI"), a corporation wholly owned by Robert T. Giaimo,
the Chairman and President of the Company. The leases require the payment of an
annual base rent, with annual adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index, and
the payment of percentage rent based on gross receipts. Percentage rent is
calculated by multiplying the gross receipts by eight percent and subtracting
the quotient obtained by dividing the annual base rent by thirteen percent. Any
positive difference is payable as percentage rent. To date, the Company has not
paid any percentage rent and is unlikely to do so in the foreseeable future. The
leases expire in late 2011. For the years ended December 30, 2001, December 31,
2000 and January 2, 2000, occupancy costs

                                       49

<PAGE>

were $515,050, $356,000 and $360,000 respectively, under terms of the leases.
Current annual base rent is $384,362.

         ROBERT GIAIMO DEVELOPMENT, INC. On June 17, 1997, the Company purchased
from Robert Giaimo Development, Inc. ("RGDI"), a corporation wholly owned by
Robert T. Giaimo, the Chairman and President of the Company, an undivided 70%
interest in the parcel of land used as a parking lot for the Potomac Mills
Restaurant. The total purchase price of the land was $408,000, of which $267,000
was borrowed from a bank, secured by the land, bearing interest at the prime
rate (4.75% at December 31, 2001), and matures in June 2003.

         The Company is obligated under a management agreement originally
entered into between Silver Diner Limited Partnership ("SDLP"), an entity which
the Company was and currently is the sole General Partner and now holds 100% of
the partnership interest, and SDPMI (the "Management Agreement"). The Management
Agreement provides that the Company is the exclusive manager of the Potomac
Mills Restaurant and is entitled to receive all of the revenues, subject to all
of the expenses from the operations of such restaurant. The Management Agreement
was entered into prior to the construction of the Potomac Mills restaurant, and
was entered into to provide SDLP with the opportunity to operate the Potomac
Mills restaurant, the acquisition of which was financed by RGDI, since SDLP did
not have the financial ability to acquire land and to construct the restaurant.
The Management Agreement is unlimited in duration and can only be terminated by
mutual agreement of the Company and SDPMI, or following notice that the Company
failed to meet its management obligations and responsibilities. RGDI has granted
the Company an option to purchase the Potomac Mills Restaurant for an amount
equal the fair market value, on the date of purchase, as determined by an
appraisal.

         LOAN TO YPE VON HENGST. In connection with his entering into an
employment agreement with the Company on November 9, 1998, Ype Von Hengst, a
Director and officer of the Company, received a $100,000 loan from the Company,
secured by his 182,881 Shares in the Company and bearing interest at 5.25%
annually. The loan and accrued interest is to be repaid annually by applying an
annual bonus received by Mr. Von Hengst beginning December 31, 1999. At December
30, 2001 $40,000 was outstanding.

         MICHAEL COLLIER AND UNIWEST GROUP, INC. AND AFFILIATES The Company has
from time to time entered into contracts with Michael Collier, a Director, and
with Uniwest Group, Inc., a construction company and certain of its affiliates,
of which Michael Collier is President and a stockholder. The company paid
$193,191 to Uniwest Construction for miscellaneous construction and renovation
of the existing diners. The Company paid Uniwest Management Inc., which manages
the real estate operations for the Merrifield diner, approximately $210,000 for
rent and real estate taxes. No consulting fees were paid to Mr. Collier in 2001.
At December 30, 2001, $11,796 is payable to the Director and affiliates of the
Director.

         In 1995, the Company entered into a ground lease with 2909 Gallows LC,
landlord, covering the Merrifield facility. The landlord is a partnership in
which Michael Collier owns a significant limited partnership interest. The lease
provides for minimum annual rent of $110,000 in 1998 with fixed escalations in
rent payments over the lease term through 2012. Rent payments in 2001 were
$186,667. Annual rent payments in 2002 will be $206,667.

         Uniwest  Construction,  Inc. acted as the general contractor for the
construction of the diner on the Merrifield property. Michael Collier was not a
director of the Company when the lease and construction contract were entered
into.
