NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Basis of Reporting
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b)
of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.
In the opinion of Management, such statements include all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary in
order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations
for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Terrace Food Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes for the period ended December 31, 1998 included
in the Terrace Food Group, Inc. Form 10-KSB.
(2) Reverse Split of Common Stock
Effective March 15, 1999, the Shareholders of the Company approved a one for ten
reverse split of the Company's common stock without any other changes in
authorization par value or otherwise. All per share and share amounts for all
periods presented have been adjusted to reflect this reverse split.
(3) Name Change
In August 1998 the Company's shareholders approved the change of the Company's
name to Terrace Food Group, Inc.
(4) Loss Per Share
The computation of Loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for each period presented. There
were no potential common shares included for 1999 as they were considered
anti-dilutive. Securities that could potentially dilute earnings per share in
the future include warrants and options to purchase common stock representing
approximately 1,197,000 Common Shares. The Company has 948,342 shares of Common
Stock issued and outstanding at June 30, 1999. In 1998, the Company had
1,523,825 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding, which converted into 304,765
shares of Common Stock in July 1998.

(5) Inventories
Inventories for the Company's Food Distribution segment include produce, grocery
dry goods, and dairy products. Food Processing and Manufacturing inventories
include raw meat and seafood, other ingredients and processed products.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out
basis) or market.
(6) Line of Credit and Term Loan
The Company and its subsidiaries maintain a financing arrangement with a bank
under which the bank provides a line of credit subject to available collateral
to a maximum of $4,000,000 and a term loan. The loans are collateralized by
virtually all assets of the Company. All cash received by the Company must be
remitted to the bank so long as there is an outstanding balance under the line
of credit, which will expire on July 15, 2001. The line of credit accrues
interest at .5% over the bank's prime lending rate. The term loan is payable in
thirty-six monthly installments of $23,810 plus annual interest of 1% above the
bank's prime rate through July 2001, with the remaining balance then due. At
June 30, 1999 the outstanding balance on the loan was $1,738,090.
(7) Convertible Subordinated Notes
In 1998, the Company issued to a private investor $2,625,000 principal amount of
Convertible Subordinated Notes ("Notes"), and warrants to purchase 40,000 shares
of Common Stock of the Company. The exercise price of the Warrants is the same
as the conversion rate of the Notes. The Notes could be converted at the option
of the Company, into Redeemable Convertible 8% Cumulative Preferred Stock
("Preferred Stock") of the Company. The Notes, Warrants and any Preferred Stock
issued to the private investor are subject to anti-dilution adjustments,
registration rights, interest and dividend adjustments and payment by the
Company of certain fees and expenses in connection with the transaction. The
Company received proceeds of $2,500,000, with $281,000 attributed to the
Warrants and Option and $2,219,000 to the Note. The Note discount of $406,000 is
being amortized over the term of the Note.
The Note agreement required the Company to attain a specified earnings level for
1998, which was not attained. Accordingly, the Company has issued the private
investor additional warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock of the
Company that are exercisable at $6.00 per share and the interest rate of the
notes was increased to 14%.
On April 13, 1999, the Company and the private investor agreed to amend the
terms of the Notes. The maturity date extended to March 31, 2000, the Conversion
Price of the Notes to either Common or Preferred Shares and the Exercise Price
of the Warrants was set at $6.00 per share through the maturity date. Any
default which may have occurred under the agreement was waived or deemed cured.
The Company has issued the private investor an additional $631,000 in Notes as
payment for accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes through April 13, 1999 and
other considerations. The Company has also issued the private investor 25,000
additional Warrants to purchase the Company's Common Stock at $9.00 per share.

(8) Commitments
In connection with the acquisition of A-One-A Produce & Provisions, Inc., the
Company entered into 5- year employment agreements with two of its officers,
effective July 1, 1997. The employment agreements call for aggregate annual
compensation of $240,000.
In connection with the acquisition of Banner Beef and Seafood, Inc., the Company

an annual base salary of $200,000.
The Company has an employment agreement with Jonathan S. Lasko, Executive Vice
President, through August 31, 2000, for a base salary of $125,000 per year.
Additionally, the agreement provides that certain other benefits be made
available to the Executive.
(9) Preferred Stock
As of April 23, 1999, the Company issued 19,618 shares of a newly authorized
Series of Preferred Stock together with Warrants to purchase 340,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock. The shares and warrants were purchased by a private
investor group that included three of the Company's Directors. The Company
received proceeds of approximately $1,700,000 in this transaction that are being
used for operating purposes.
The Preferred Stock was issued at a discount, calculated yield an effective
annual dividend of approximately 15%. The Preferred Stock is redeemable, in
cash, at the option of the Company through March 30, 2000, when it becomes
mandatorily redeemable either in cash or through conversion into 17% Senior
Notes which would mature on March 31, 2003. The stock purchase warrants, which
expire four years from their date of issue, provide for the purchase of
Company's Common Stock at $9.00 per share during the first year, $7.50 per share
during the second year and $6.00 per share thereafter. The discount of $346,900
from the redemption value of $1,961,800 is being amortized to Additional Paid-in
Capital to March 31,2000.
(10) Segment Data
The Company's two business units have distinct management teams and
infrastructures, offer different products and are evaluated separately in
assessing performance and allocating resources. These units are being reported
as two segments: Food Distribution and Food Processing and Manufacturing. Each
segment is managed separately, has a distinct customer base and requires
different strategic and marketing efforts. Food Distribution includes the
operations of the Company's A-One-A Produce and Provisions, Inc. and Fresh, Inc.
subsidiaries and Food Processing and Manufacturing is represented by Banner Beef
and Seafood Co. Inc.
Terrace evaluates performance based on operating profit before interest and
taxes. Accordingly, interest has not been allocated to the operating segments.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company's distribution and produce processing subsidiary A-One-A Produce and
Provisions, Inc. distributes fresh produce and dairy products to the
foodservice, cruise ship and export customers in South Florida. The Company's
manufacturing and processing subsidiary Banner Beef and Seafood Company, Inc.
operates in the value added Home Meal Replacement sector and sells to the retail
and foodservice markets. The Company's consolidated revenues for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 were approximately $20, 865,000 compared to $13,429,00 for
the same period in 1998 or an increase of approximately 55%. The Company's
operating segment income from operations increased approximately $36,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 from the prior year period.
Management believes that as its plan for growth in its newly acquired
manufacturing subsidiary continues to be implemented profitable operating levels
will be obtained at both A-One-A and Banner Beef.
SEGMENT ANALYSIS
- ----------------
Food Distribution
- -----------------
The Company's food distribution segment is comprised of its A-One-A Produce and
Provisions, Inc. and Fresh, Inc. operations which distribute and process fresh
produce and dairy products throughout South Florida as well as export and cruise
ship customers from the local ports. Revenues for this segment reached
$18,771,224 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $13,429,519 for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 and increase of approximately 40%. Operating
income was $892,000 for the first six months of 1999 compared to $217,000 for
the same period in 1998. This increase of approximately 311% resulted from the
large revenue increase in A-1-A sales as well as managements continued directive
towards expense control. During the first six months the company was successful
in many of its bids for large Hotels, Hospitals and Cruise Ship accounts which
had a large impact on sales. Through continued sales growth and further expense
control, the Company's A-One-A segment will maintain and build on its current
levels of profitability. Management believes that as the year further progresses
and into future periods the investment made into technology and plant upgrades
will continue to pay off. The current customer mix has helped smooth A-One-A's
cyclical history and by continuing the current push towards larger volume
accounts, this out of season sales trend should continue.
Food Processing and Manufacturing
- ---------------------------------
The Company's food processing and manufacturing segment is comprised of its
Banner Beef and Seafood subsidiary. The company purchased Banner to enter the
higher margin, value added segment of the food industry. Management sees a
strong opportunity to participate in the Home Meal Replacement segment of the
industry. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were $2,093,782 with
an operating loss of $641,000. There are no comparable results for 1998, as the
Company did not own Banner Beef and Seafood. The test marketing that the Company
has been through in the first six months has been successful with major chains
around the Country.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS, Sheet #2
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company's current prospect exposure encompasses over five thousand retail
and club markets that represent over $150 billion in annual sales. Initial
feedback and startup has already begun to take place and initial consumer
response has been very positive. As these Home Meal Replacement opportunities
continue to materialize, management believes Banner sales will be dramatically
impacted. In addition, as revenues continue to grow manufacturing efficiencies
and overhead absorption will be realized which should result in positive
earnings for the Company.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
At June 30, 1999 the Company had a cash deficit of approximately $1,010,000 and
a working capital deficit of approximately $1,855,000.
During the first six months of 1999, management believes the food distribution
operations have improved with the securing of substantial new business,
particularly with high volume institutional accounts. Management intends to
continue its aggressive marketing efforts in these areas as well as to cruise
line and export customers.
Management further believes that a key element in its plan is to substantially
increase sales volume at Banner, where the Company has developed the capability
of producing high quality innovative products for the home meal replacement
("HMR") market.
In April 1999, the Registrant issued 19,618 shares of a newly authorized
Preferred Stock together with Warrants to purchase 340,000 shares of the
Registrant's Common Stock. The shares and warrants were purchased by a private
investor group that included three of the Registrant's Directors. The Registrant
received proceeds of approximately $1,700,000 in this transaction which are
being used for working capital.
Management believes that the transactions described above and operating
improvements will be sufficient to provide for its continuing operations.

EXHIBIT 4.1
CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS
OF
TERRACE FOOD GROUP, INC.
Pursuant to Section 151 of the Delaware General Corporation
Law (the "GCL"), TERRACE FOOD GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
"Corporation"), certifies as follows:
FIRST: Under the authority contained in Article FOURTH of the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, the Board of Directors of the
Corporation has classified an aggregate of 19,000 shares of the authorized but
unissued shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation into a series which shall
be designated Series C Preferred Stock.
SECOND: The following resolution was adopted by the Board of
Directors on April 13, 1999 and such resolution has not been modified and is in
full force and effect on the date hereof:
RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors hereby creates, from the
authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation, a series
of preferred stock designated as Series C Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per
share (the "Preferred Stock"), and hereby fixes the powers, designations,
preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and
the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of the shares of such
series, as follows:
Section 1. Preferred Stock Dividends.
1.1 General Dividend Obligation. When, as and if declared by
the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the Corporation shall pay to the
holders of record of the Preferred Stock, out of the funds of the Corporation
legally available for the payment of dividends under the General Corporation Law
of the State of Delaware, preferential dividends at the times and in the amounts
provided for in this Section 1.
1.2 Payments of Dividends; Payments in Additional Shares. (a)
When declared by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, dividends on the
Preferred Stock shall be payable on whole shares of Preferred Stock on each
Dividend Payment Date (capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein being used
in this Certificate of Designations with the definitions set forth in Section
11) to the holders of Preferred Stock on the record date determined by the Board
of Directors of the Corporation in accordance with the by-laws of the
Corporation. Dividends shall
-1-
<PAGE>
be paid by mailing the Corporation's good check in the proper amount to each
holder of record of Preferred Stock at such holder's address as it appears on
the Corporation's stock legend at least five (5) days prior to the due date of
each dividend or by wire transfer of immediately available funds so as to be
received by such holder on the due date of such dividend.
(b) If at any time dividends on the outstanding Preferred
Stock at the rate set forth herein shall not have been fully paid or declared
and set aside for payment, no dividends or other distributions shall be declared
or paid upon or set apart for payment on the shares of any other class of Junior
Securities.
1.3 Calculation of Dividends. Dividends on each share of
Preferred Stock shall be calculated cumulatively at the rate and in the manner
prescribed herein from and including the date of issuance of such share of
Preferred Stock, whether or not such dividends shall have been declared and
whether or not there shall be (at the time such dividends are calculated or
become payable or at any other time) profits, surplus or other funds or assets
of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends. For purposes
of this Section 1.3, the date on which the Corporation shall initially issue any
share of Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be its "date of issuance" regardless
of the number of times transfer of such share of Preferred Stock shall be made
on the stock register maintained by or for the Corporation and regardless of the
number of certificates which may be issued to evidence such share of Preferred
Stock (whether by reason of transfer of such share or for any other reason).
1.4 Dividend Rates. Dividends shall be cumulative, and shall
accrue on a daily basis on each Outstanding share of Preferred Stock at the rate
per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year having twelve thirty-day
months and counting actual days elapsed) of thirteen percent (13%) of the
Liquidation Value of each share of Preferred Stock. To the extent not paid, on a
Dividend Payment Date all unpaid dividends accrued on each share of Preferred
Stock Outstanding during such quarter (or from and including the original date
of issuance of such share in the case of the initial quarter-end after the date
of issuance) shall be added to the Liquidation Value of such share and shall
remain a part thereof until such dividends are paid.
Section 2. Liquidation Preferences.
Subject to the provisions of applicable law, upon any
liquidation (complete or partial), dissolution or winding up of the Corporation,
or any similar distribution of its assets to its stockholders which results in a
return of capital, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Preferred Stock will be
pari passu with any other Outstanding shares of the Corporation's Convertible
Preferred Stock, and the holders of the Preferred Stock shall be entitled,
before any distribution or payment is made upon any Junior Securities of the
Corporation, to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for
distribution to its stockholders (whether from capital, surplus or earnings) an
amount in cash equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate Liquidation Value of all
shares of Preferred Stock then Outstanding, plus (ii) all accrued unpaid
dividends on such shares, and shall not be entitled to any further payment.
Written notice of such liquidation,
-2-
<PAGE>
dissolution, winding up or other distribution of assets, stating a payment date,
the amount of the payment and the place where the amounts distributable shall be
payable, shall be mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested, not less than sixty (60) days prior to the payment date stated
therein, to each record holder of any share of Preferred Stock entitled thereto
at the address for such record holder shown on the Corporation's records.
Neither the consolidation nor merger of the Corporation into or with any other
corporation or corporations, nor the sale or transfer by the Corporation of all
or any part of its assets, shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution,
winding up or similar distribution of the Corporation within the meaning of any
of the provisions of this Section 2, provided that such transaction does not
effect a return of capital (as defined in the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware) to the Corporation's stockholders.

3.1 Redemption Price. For each share of Preferred Stock which
is to be redeemed by the Corporation at any time and for any reason in a

fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of
Preferred Stock then held by such holder and the denominator of which shall be
the total number of shares of Preferred Stock then Outstanding, rounded if the
result is fractional to the nearest whole number of shares.
