THE COMPANY 

   
   The Company currently owns and operates 30 and franchises or licenses six 
full-service, casual dining restaurants under the name "Roadhouse Grill." The 
Roadhouse Grill concept offers a fun, value-oriented dining experience that 
features premium quality grilled entrees and friendly service consistent with 
the Company's motto: "Good Food and a Smile . . . That's Roadhouse 
Style."/registered trademark/ The comfortable, entertaining roadhouse setting 
is designed to appeal to a broad range of customers, including business 
people, couples, singles and particularly families. 

   Roadhouse Grill restaurants have an energetic and casual atmosphere. The 
interior of each restaurant is large, open and visually appealing, featuring 
exposed ceilings and brick and lapboard cedar walls decorated with colorful, 
hand-painted murals and neon signs. Multi-level seating provides guests with 
a full view of the restaurant, including the exhibition grill and display 
kitchen, allowing everyone to enjoy the Roadhouse Grill experience. The 
exhibition cooking area features a mesquite-fired grill, a kitchen where 
homemade yeast rolls are made throughout the day and a display case filled 
with fresh cuts of meat, seafood and salads. To help create Roadhouse Grill's 
casual ambience, metal pails of roasted peanuts top each table, guests are 
encouraged to toss peanut shells on the floor, drinks are served in mason 
jars, long neck beers are delivered in metal buckets filled with ice, and a 
classic jukebox entertains guests with popular rock and country and western 
music. The exterior of each restaurant features rough-sawed siding, a 
wrap-around wood plank porch, a tin roof trimmed in neon and an oversized 
"Roadhouse Grill" sign. 

   The Roadhouse Grill menu features aged USDA Choice steaks hand cut at each 
restaurant, ribs, chicken and seafood, all of which are grilled to order. In 
addition to grilled selections, the menu offers a variety of appetizers, 
sandwiches, salads and desserts, including signature items such as Roadhouse 
cheese wraps, hot-out-of-the-oven yeast rolls made from scratch each day and 
a daily selection of homemade ice cream. Prices range from $2.99 to $6.29 for 
lunch entrees and from $4.99 to $15.99 for dinner entrees. For the nine 
months ended September 29, 1996, the average guest check, including beverage, 
was approximately $8.75 for lunch and $13.25 for dinner. 

   Since opening its first Roadhouse Grill in March 1993, the Company has 
grown rapidly, adding two additional restaurants in 1993, three restaurants 
in 1994, 13 restaurants in 1995 and, to date, 11 restaurants in 1996. 
Although the Company has recently opened restaurants in Georgia, South 
Carolina and upstate New York, the Company-owned Roadhouse Grill restaurants 
are located primarily in Florida. The Company's growth strategy is to 
continue opening Company-owned restaurants primarily in the Southeastern and 
Gulf Coast regions of the United States. The Company currently plans to open 
two more restaurants in 1996 and approximately 15 restaurants in 1997. 

                                3           
<PAGE>
   The Company currently has six franchised or licensed restaurants. Of 
these, three are located in Malaysia and three are located in the United 
States. The Company expects that its international franchisees will open at 
least two additional Roadhouse Grill restaurants in Asia and the Pacific Rim 
by the end of 1997. Although the Company has granted certain domestic 
franchise/development rights, it intends to focus on expansion of 
Company-owned restaurants in the United States. 

   The Company believes that Company-owned Roadhouse Grill restaurants have 
achieved attractive unit level economics. The 12 Company-owned restaurants 
that were open for the entire twelve-month period ended June 30, 1996 
generated average restaurant revenues of approximately $2.9 million for such 
period. The average cash investment, excluding real estate costs and 
pre-opening expenses, required to open each of the 27 Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants opened by the Company prior to September 29, 1996 was 
approximately $1.3 million. The Company's current prototype restaurant is 
approximately 6,800 square feet with seating for approximately 210 guests. 
The Company expects that the average cash investment required to open such a 
prototype restaurant, excluding real estate costs and pre-opening expenses, 
will be approximately $950,000 or $1.3 million, depending upon whether the 
Company converts an existing building or constructs a new restaurant. 

   Roadhouse Grill restaurants are based upon a roadhouse-style concept 
developed in 1991 by the Company's founder and Chief Executive Officer, John 
David Toole III. During the last two years, the Company has assembled a 
corporate management team averaging more than 11 years of experience in the 
restaurant industry. The Company believes that personable, well-trained 
employees are essential to the overall success of Roadhouse Grill restaurants 
and, accordingly, selects employees based upon personality and initiative, 
devotes significant resources to employee development and emphasizes training 
and internal promotion. 
    

   The Company was incorporated in Florida in October 1992, and its principal 
executive offices are located at 6600 N. Andrews Avenue, Suite 160, Fort 
Lauderdale, Florida 33309. Its telephone number at that address is (954) 
489-9699.

                                 RISK FACTORS 

   AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMMON STOCK OFFERED HEREBY INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF 
RISK. IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS, 
PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS IN 
EVALUATING AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMMON STOCK. THE DISCUSSION IN THIS 
PROSPECTUS CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND 
UNCERTAINTY. THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE 
DISCUSSED HEREIN. 

LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY; OPERATING LOSSES 

   The Company was incorporated in October 1992, and the first Company-owned 
Roadhouse Grill restaurant was opened in March 1993. The Company incurred 
losses of $713,000, $2.5 million, $3.5 million and $168,000 in Fiscal 1993, 
Fiscal 1994, Fiscal 1995 and the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996, 
respectively, and there can be no assurance that the Company's operations 
will be profitable in the future. 

RISKS OF RAPID EXPANSION; MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH 

   
   The Company's continued growth will depend on its ability to open and 
operate new restaurants on a timely and profitable basis. The Company intends 
to open two new restaurants during the balance of 1996 and approximately 15 
restaurants during 1997. The ability of the Company to open and operate new 
restaurants on a timely and profitable basis is subject to various 
contingencies, some of which are beyond the Company's control. These 
contingencies include, among others, the Company's ability to secure suitable 
restaurant sites on a timely basis and on satisfactory terms, to obtain 
required governmental permits and approvals, to complete construction on a 
cost-effective and timely basis, to hire, train and retain skilled management 
and other personnel, to obtain adequate financing or other capital resources 
and to successfully integrate new restaurants into the Company's existing 
operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to 
achieve its planned expansion or that its expansion will be profitable. 
Profitability may be adversely affected by costs associated with developing a 
significant number of new restaurants over a relatively short period of time. 
New restaurants typically incur above-average operating costs during the 
first several months of operation, which have a material adverse effect on 
the profitability of such restaurants during such period. In addition, 
although the Company intends to open new restaurants within its current 
market area, it also intends to open new restaurants in geographic markets in 
which the Company has limited or no previous operating experience. Failure of 
the Company to achieve its planned expansion on a profitable basis would have 
a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and 
financial condition. 

   The Company is subject to a variety of business risks associated with 
rapidly growing companies, including the risk that existing management, 
information systems and financial controls will be inadequate to support the 
Company's planned expansion. There can be no assurance that the Company will 
be able to respond on a timely basis to all of the changing demands that its 
planned expansion will impose on management and such systems and controls. In 
addition, several members of the Company's management team have recently 
joined the Company and have no experience operating a large restaurant chain. 
The failure to continue to evaluate and improve management, information 
systems and financial controls or unexpected difficulties encountered during 
expansion could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of 
operations and financial condition. 
    

FUTURE CAPITAL NEEDS 

   
   The Company currently intends to finance new restaurants with cash from 
operations and the net proceeds from the Offering. The Company intends to 
open two new restaurants during the balance of 1996 and approximately 15 
restaurants in 1997. The Company expects that the average cash investment 
required to open its prototype restaurants, excluding real estate costs and 
pre-opening expenses, will be approximately $950,000 or $1.3 million, 
depending on whether the Company converts an existing building or constructs 
a new restaurant. There can be no assurance that the actual cost of opening 
the 

                                6           
<PAGE>
Company's prototype restaurants will not be significantly greater than that 
expected by the Company. Historically, the Company has funded its working 
capital needs through sales of Common and Preferred Stock and borrowings from 
related parties. The Company believes that the net proceeds of the Offering 
together with cash from operations, will be sufficient to fund its working 
capital needs for the next eight months. In order to complete its anticipated 
expansion through 1997, the Company will be required to incur short-term or 
long-term indebtedness or issue, in public or private transactions, equity or 
debt securities. However, there can be no assurance that such debt or equity 
financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. 
The Company currently does not have a credit facility with a bank or other 
financial institution. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources." 
    

GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION; SMALL RESTAURANT BASE 

   
   Of the 30 restaurants currently owned and operated by the Company, 24 are 
located in Florida. Consequently, the Company's results of operations may be 
materially adversely affected by downturns in Florida's economy or by 
hurricanes or other adverse weather conditions in Florida. Also, adverse 
publicity in Florida relating to Roadhouse Grill restaurants could have a 
more pronounced effect on the Company's results of operations than might be 
the case if its restaurants were broadly dispersed geographically. Further, 
there can be no assurance that continued expansion in the Company's current 
market areas will not adversely affect the financial performance of other 
restaurants already operated by the Company in those areas. In addition, the 
Company has recently opened new restaurants in Georgia, South Carolina and 
upstate New York. However, the Company has not previously managed restaurants 
that are geographically dispersed, and there can be no assurance that the 
Company will be able to operate restaurants profitably outside Florida. 
    

   The operating results achieved to date by the Company's relatively small 
restaurant base may not be indicative of the future operating results of a 
larger number of restaurants. In addition, due to the Company's small 
restaurant base, poor operating results at any one restaurant could adversely 
affect the results of operations of the entire Company. 

SEASONALITY AND FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY RESULTS 

   The Company's sales and earnings fluctuate seasonally, and the Company's 
highest sales and earnings historically have occurred in its first and fourth 
fiscal quarters. The Company's restaurants are located primarily in Florida, 
and the Company believes that the effects of seasonality are more pronounced 
in Florida than in other states. In addition, quarterly results are 
significantly affected by the timing of new restaurant openings, as new 
restaurants incur above-average operating costs during the first several 
months of operation. Accordingly, to the extent that restaurant openings are 
concentrated in any fiscal period, results of operations for such fiscal 
period and subsequent fiscal periods may be materially adversely affected. 
Due to the seasonality of the Company's business and the impact of new 
restaurant openings, results of operations may fluctuate significantly from 
quarter to quarter, and the Company's results of operations for any 
particular quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be 
achieved for the full fiscal year. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis 
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Seasonality and Quarterly 
Results." 

COMPETITION 

   The restaurant industry is highly competitive. The Company competes with a 
broad range of restaurants, including national and regional casual dining 
chains as well as locally-owned restaurants, some of which operate with 
concepts similar to that of the Company. Many of the Company's competitors 
are well established and have substantially greater market presence and 
financial and other resources than the Company. The entrance of new 
competitors into the Company's market areas or the expansion of operations by 
existing competitors could have a material adverse effect on the Company's 
results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the Company 
competes with other restaurant companies and retailers for sites, labor and, 
in many cases, customers. The Company believes that the 

                                7           
<PAGE>
key competitive factors in the restaurant industry are quality of food and 
service, price, location and concept. To the extent that one or more of its 
competitors becomes more successful in respect of any key competitive factor, 
the Company's business could be adversely affected. See "Business--
Competition; Restaurant Industry." 

RESTAURANT INDUSTRY 

   The restaurant industry is affected by changes in consumer tastes as well 
as national, regional and local economic conditions, demographic trends, 
traffic patterns, and the type, number and location of competing restaurants. 
Dependence on fresh meats and produce also subjects restaurant companies to 
the risk that shortages or interruptions in supply could adversely affect the 
availability, quality or cost of ingredients. In addition, factors such as 
inflation, increased food, labor and employee benefit costs and the 
availability of qualified management and hourly employees also may adversely 
affect the restaurant industry generally and the Company's restaurants in 
particular. The success and future profitability of the Company will depend 
in part on its ability to identify and respond to changing conditions within 
the restaurant industry. 

CHANGES IN FOOD AND OTHER COSTS; SUPPLY RISKS 

   The profitability of the Company is significantly dependent on its ability 
to anticipate and react to changes in food, labor, employee benefits and 
similar costs over which the Company has little or no control. The Company is 
dependent on frequent deliveries of fresh beef and produce, the cost of which 
represented approximately 16% of total revenues for Fiscal 1995. Shortages or 
interruptions in the supply of fresh beef and produce, which may be caused by 
adverse weather or other conditions, could have a material adverse effect on 
the Company's results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the 
Company purchased approximately 87% of its food and other products from two 
distributors during Fiscal 1995. On August 5, 1996, the Company began doing 
business with only one of these two principal distributors and anticipates 
that approximately 80% of its food and other products will be purchased from 
that distributor in the future. While the Company believes that alternative 
sources of supply are readily available, the loss of this distributor could 
have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations during 
the period in which alternative supply arrangements are established. 

GOVERNMENT REGULATION 

   The Company is subject to numerous federal, state and local government 
laws and regulations, including those relating to the sale of food and 
alcoholic beverages and the development, construction and operation of the 
Company's restaurants. The failure to comply with any such laws and 
regulations, including the failure to obtain or maintain any liquor licenses, 
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations 
and financial condition. The Company is also subject to laws governing its 
relationship with employees, including minimum wage requirements, laws and 
regulations relating to overtime and working and safety conditions and 
citizenship requirements. Material increases in the minimum hourly wage, 
unemployment tax rates, sales taxes or the cost of compliance with any 
applicable law or regulation could materially and adversely affect the 
Company. The Company is also 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. Any liability of the Company 
under such statutes could have a material adverse effect on the Company's 
results of operations and financial condition. In connection with its 
franchise operations, the Company is required to comply with Federal Trade 
Commission and state laws and regulations that govern the offer, sale and 
termination of franchises and the refusal to renew franchises. See 
"Business--Government Regulation." 

DEPENDENCE ON SENIOR MANAGEMENT 

   The Company's success will depend largely on the abilities of its senior 
management, including John D. Toole III, President and Chief Executive 
Officer of the Company. The loss of Mr. Toole's 

                                8           
<PAGE>
services or the services of other members of senior management could have a 
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial 
condition. As the Company expands its operations, the success of its business 
will depend increasingly upon the Company's ability to attract and retain 
skilled restaurant management personnel. There can be no assurance that the 
Company will be able to attract and retain sufficient personnel, and the 
inability to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Company's 
results of operations and financial condition. See "Management" and 
"Business--Restaurant Operations and Management." 

CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER 

   
   Upon completion of the Offering, Berjaya Group (Cayman) Limited 
("Berjaya") will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, approximately 
57.2% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock. As a result, Berjaya will be 
able to control the vote on all matters requiring approval by the 
shareholders of the Company, to elect the entire Board of Directors and, 
effectively, to control the Company. In addition, Berjaya and the other 
existing shareholders of the Company are entitled to certain rights of first 
refusal with respect to the issuance of equity securities of the Company, 
other than shares issued in connection with an underwritten public offering. 
See "Principal Shareholders" and "Description of Capital Stock." 
    

ABSENCE OF PUBLIC MARKET; PRICE VOLATILITY 

   Prior to the Offering there has been no public market for the Common 
Stock, and there can be no assurance that an active public market will 
develop or continue after the Offering. The initial public offering price of 
the Common Stock will be determined through negotiations between the Company 
and the Representatives of the Underwriters, and there can be no assurance 
that the market price of the Common Stock after the Offering will not decline 
below the initial public offering price. See "Underwriting" for a discussion 
of the factors to be considered in determining the initial public offering 
price. 

   The market price of the Common Stock could fluctuate significantly in 
response to variations in quarterly operating results and other factors, 
including the performance of other restaurant companies. In addition, the 
securities markets have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations 
from time to time in recent years that often have been unrelated or 
disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These 
broad fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock. 

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE 

   
   Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will have outstanding 
9,166,002 shares of Common Stock, of which the 2,500,000 shares sold pursuant 
to the Offering will be fully tradeable without restriction or further 
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities 
Act"). The remaining shares will be restricted securities as defined by Rule 
144 under the Securities Act. Of such shares constituting restricted 
securities, 4,161,074 shares will be eligible for sale, subject to certain 
restrictions, beginning 90 days after the date of this Prospectus and 
2,504,928 shares will become eligible for sale, subject to certain 
restrictions, at various times between May 1997 and May 1998. Sales of 
substantial amounts of Common Stock in the public market, or the perception 
that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price 
of the Common Stock or the ability of the Company to raise capital through a 
public offering of its equity securities. In addition, certain shareholders 
have the right to require the Company to register up to 6,524,335 shares of 
Common Stock under the Securities Act. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale."

   The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 2,500,000 shares of 
Common Stock offered hereby at an assumed initial public offering price of 
$10.00 per share are estimated to be approximately $22,760,000 ($26,247,500

   The indebtedness to be repaid with a portion of the net proceeds of the 
Offering was incurred for the purpose of opening or acquiring Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants and for other general corporate purposes. For a discussion of the 
terms of the indebtedness being repaid with the net proceeds of the Offering, 
see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Management--Compensation 
Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation." 
    

   Pending the use of the net proceeds as described above, the Company plans 
to invest such net proceeds in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing 
securities. 

                               DIVIDEND POLICY 

   The Company has never declared or paid cash dividends on its outstanding 
capital stock. The Company intends to retain any earnings to finance 
operations and expansion and does not intend to pay cash dividends on the 
Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends, if 
any, in the future will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and 
will depend upon such factors as earnings, capital requirements, the 
Company's financial condition and other factors deemed relevant by the Board 
of Directors. Future loan agreements may restrict or prohibit the payment of 
dividends.

                                   DILUTION 

   
   Pro forma net tangible book value per share is determined by dividing the 
tangible net worth of the Company (tangible assets less liabilities) by the 
pro forma aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (which 
includes as outstanding the 1,918,616 shares of Common Stock issuable upon 
the conversion of the Issued Preferred Stock, which conversion will occur 
concurrently with the closing of the Offering). The net tangible book value 
of the Company as of June 30, 1996, was approximately $27,753,024, or $4.16 
per share, pro forma. After giving effect to the sale of the 2,500,000 shares 
of Common Stock offered hereby at an assumed initial public offering price of 
$10.00 per share and the application of the net proceeds therefrom after 
deducting the underwriting discount and estimated expenses of the Offering, 
the net tangible book value of the Company as of June 30, 1996 would have 
been approximately $50,513,024, or $5.51 per share, pro forma. This 
represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value per 
share of $1.35 to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of $4.49 
per share to new investors. The following table sets forth this per share 
dilution.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 
               OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

   
   The following discussion of the financial condition and results of 
operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's Financial 
Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. 
    

INTRODUCTION 

   
   The Company opened its first restaurant in March 1993 in Pembroke Pines, 
Florida. As of the date of this Prospectus, there were 36 Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants in operation, consisting of 30 Company-owned and six franchised 
or licensed restaurants. Of the Company-owned restaurants, 24 are located in 
Florida and six are located in Georgia, South Carolina and upstate New York. 
The Company plans to open an additional two restaurants during the remainder 
of 1996 and approximately 15 restaurants in 1997. See "Risk Factors--Risks of 
Rapid Expansion; Management of Growth." 
    

   The Company's revenues are derived primarily from the sale of food and 
beverages. Sales of alcoholic beverages accounted for approximately 12.5%, 
13.7%, 13.9% and 13.0% of total revenues in Fiscal 1993, Fiscal 1994, Fiscal 
1995 and the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996, respectively. 
Franchise and management fees have accounted for less than 1.0% of the 
Company's total revenues for all periods since its inception. 

   The Company's new restaurants can be expected to incur above-average costs 
during the first few months of operation. Pre-opening costs, such as employee 
recruiting and training costs and other initial expenses incurred in 
connection with the opening of a new restaurant, are amortized over a 
twelve-month period commencing the first full month after the restaurant 
opens. 

   In its first three fiscal years of operation, Fiscal 1993, Fiscal 1994 and 
Fiscal 1995, the Company incurred net losses of $713,000, $2.5 million and 
$3.5 million, respectively. Accordingly, the Company has made no provision 
for taxes payable for such fiscal years. At December 31, 1995, the Company 
had a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $5.9 million. 

   
   The average cash investment, excluding real estate costs and pre-opening 
expenses, required to open the 27 Roadhouse Grill restaurants opened by the 
Company prior to September 29, 1996 was approximately $1.3 million. For the 
Company's 11 owned properties, the average real estate acquisition cost was 
approximately $880,000. The Company has obtained financing in connection with 
the acquisition of its owned properties, which financing generally has 
required a down payment of 10% of the purchase price. The Company expects 
that the average cash investment required to open its prototype restaurants, 
excluding real estate costs and pre-opening expenses, will be approximately 
$950,000 or $1.3 million, depending upon whether the Company converts an 
existing building or constructs a new restaurant. 

   In August 1996, the Company contracted to purchase from an unaffiliated 
third party the remaining 50% interest in Kendall Roadhouse Grill, L.C. The 
contract provides for the closing of such purchase within 15 days after the 
closing of the Offering or as soon thereafter as the conditions to closing 
have been satisfied; however, there can be no assurance that such purchase 
will be consummated. If the purchase is consummated, the Company will own 
100% of the Kendall, Florida Roadhouse Grill restaurant. In addition, the 
Company is currently negotiating the purchase of a 50% interest in the Boca 
Raton, Florida Roadhouse Grill restaurant from an unaffiliated third party 
and expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the Offering to pay the 
purchase price therefor; however, there can be no assurance that such 
purchase will be consummated. The Company has managed the Boca Raton 
restaurant under a management agreement since December 1994 and expects to 
continue to do so in the foreseeable future. See "Use of Proceeds." 

THIRD QUARTER 1996 RESULTS 

   Based on preliminary information, management estimates that total revenues 
will be approximately $16.1 million for the thirteen-week period ended 
September 29, 1996. Accordingly, total revenues are 

                               14           
<PAGE>
expected to be approximately $43.8 million for the thirty nine weeks then 
ended. This would represent an increase in total revenues of 86.4% compared 
to $23.5 million for the thirty nine weeks ended October 1, 1995. During the 
thirteen-week period ended September 29, 1996, the Company opened five new 
Roadhouse Grill Restaurants, including two in upstate New York and one each 
in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina.

   TWENTY-SIX WEEK PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO TWENTY-SIX WEEK 
   PERIOD ENDED JULY 2, 1995 

   
   RESTAURANTS OPEN. At the beginning of Fiscal 1996, there were 19 
Company-owned restaurants in operation (including the Kendall, Florida 
Roadhouse Grill restaurant which was owned by a limited liability company in 
which the Company held a 50% ownership interest). At June 30, 1996, there 
were 23 Company-owned restaurants in operation, compared to 12 Company-owned 
restaurants at July 2, 1995, a 76.9% year-over-year increase in the number of 
Company-owned restaurants. 

   TOTAL REVENUES. Total revenues increased $13.8 million, or 100.6%, from 
$13.8 million for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to $27.6 
million for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996. This increase was 
primarily attributable to the opening of four additional restaurants during 
the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996 and the inclusion of all 13 
Company-owned restaurants added in Fiscal 1995 for the entire twenty-six week 
period ended June 30, 1996, and was partially offset by modest decreases in 
sales at other restaurants open during such period. 
    

   FOOD AND BEVERAGE. Food and beverage costs increased $4.5 million, or 
89.7%, from $4.9 million for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to 
$9.4 million for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996. However, 
food and beverage costs decreased as a percentage of total revenues from 
35.8% for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to 33.9% for the 
comparable period in Fiscal 1996. This decrease reflects (i) the opening of 
fewer new restaurants over a larger base of Company-owned restaurants in 
operation during the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996 compared to 
the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 and (ii) a continuing decline 
in food costs resulting from 

                               15           
<PAGE>
increased efficiencies associated with the implementation in Fiscal 1995 of 
detailed recipes, training manuals, inventory controls and other management 
tools. 

   LABOR AND BENEFITS. Labor and benefit costs increased $3.7 million, or 
76.4%, from $4.9 million for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to 
$8.6 million for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996. However, 
labor and benefit costs as a percentage of total revenues decreased from 
35.5% for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to 31.2% for the 
comparable period in Fiscal 1996. The decrease was primarily attributable to 
spreading the costs associated with training managers for new restaurants 
over a larger base of Company-owned restaurants in operation during the 
twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996 compared to the twenty-six week 
period ended July 2, 1995. 

   OCCUPANCY AND OTHER. Occupancy and other costs increased $2.7 million, or 
90.6%, from $3.1 million for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to 
$5.8 million for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996. However, 
occupancy and other costs decreased as a percentage of total revenues from 
22.2% for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to 21.1% for the 
comparable period in Fiscal 1996. The decrease in this percentage resulted 
primarily from a significant increase in the percentage of restaurants owned, 
as opposed to leased, by the Company during the twenty-six week period ended 
June 30, 1996, as compared to the comparable period in Fiscal 1995. 

   DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expense 
increased $798,000, or 143.7%, from $555,000 for the twenty-six week period 
ended July 2, 1995 to $1.4 million for the twenty-six week period ended June 
30, 1996. Depreciation and amortization as a percentage of total revenues 
increased from 4.0% for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to 4.9% 
for the comparable period in Fiscal 1996. The increase in this percentage 
resulted primarily from a significant increase in the percentage of 
restaurants owned by the Company as opposed to leased during the twenty-six 
week period ended June 30, 1996, as compared to the comparable period in 
Fiscal 1995. 

   GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expense increased 
$1.2 million, or 103.1%, from $1.1 million for the twenty-six week period 
ended July 2, 1995 to $2.3 million for the twenty-six week period ended June 
30, 1996. General and administrative expense as a percentage of total 
revenues remained relatively constant at 8.3% for the twenty-six week period 
ended July 2, 1995 and 8.4% for the comparable period in Fiscal 1996. 
Economies of scale resulting from a greater number of Company-owned 
restaurants in operation during the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 
1996, as compared to the comparable period in Fiscal 1995, were offset by 
increased expenses in the latter half of Fiscal 1995 associated with 
increasing the management and support staff infrastructure in anticipation of 
future expansion. 

   
   TOTAL OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Total other income (expense) decreased from 
income of $173,000 for the twenty-six week period ended July 2, 1995 to 
expense of $313,000 for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996. This 
decrease resulted primarily from interest expense incurred in connection with 
the purchase of eight restaurant sites during Fiscal 1995 and the twenty-six 
week period ended June 30, 1996 and was partially offset by income earned by 
the Kendall, Florida Roadhouse Grill restaurant, which was accounted for 
under the equity method of accounting. See Note 5 to the Financial 
Statements. 
    

   FISCAL 1995 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1994 

   
   RESTAURANTS OPEN. At the beginning of Fiscal 1994, there were three 
Company-owned restaurants in operation (including the North Miami, Florida 
Roadhouse Grill restaurant which was owned by a limited liability company in 
which the Company held a 50% ownership interest). During Fiscal 1994, the 
Company added three restaurants (including the Kendall, Florida Roadhouse 
Grill restaurant which was owned by a limited liability company in which the 
Company held a 50% ownership interest), and during Fiscal 1995 the Company 
added thirteen restaurants. As of the end of Fiscal 1995, the Company had 19 
Company-owned restaurants in operation. 
    

   TOTAL REVENUES. Total revenues increased $22.9 million, or 201.0%, from 
$11.4 million in Fiscal 1994 to $34.3 million in Fiscal 1995. This increase 
was attributable to the addition of 13 Company-owned restaurants during 
Fiscal 1995 and the inclusion of a full year of operations for the two 100% 

                               16           
<PAGE>
Company-owned restaurants opened in Fiscal 1994 and was partially offset by 
modest decreases in sales at certain restaurants opened in Fiscal 1993 and 
Fiscal 1994. 

   FOOD AND BEVERAGE. Food and beverage costs increased $8.0 million, or 
195.8%, from $4.1 million in Fiscal 1994 to $12.1 million in Fiscal 1995, but 
decreased as a percentage of total revenues from 35.9% in Fiscal 1994 to 
35.3% in Fiscal 1995. This decrease reflects a decline in food costs 
resulting from increased efficiencies associated with the implementation in 
Fiscal 1995 of detailed recipes, training manuals, inventory controls and 
other management tools. 

   LABOR AND BENEFITS. Labor and benefits costs increased $7.4 million, or 
160.9%, from $4.6 million in Fiscal 1994 to $12.0 million in Fiscal 1995, but 
decreased as a percentage of total revenues from 40.4% in Fiscal 1994 to 
35.1% in Fiscal 1995. This decline was primarily attributable to decreased 
training and recruiting costs resulting from lower restaurant employee 
turnover in Fiscal 1995 compared to Fiscal 1994. 

   OCCUPANCY AND OTHER. Occupancy and other costs increased by $6.4 million, 
or 275.8%, from $2.3 million in Fiscal 1994 to $8.7 million in Fiscal 1995. 
As a percentage of total revenues, occupancy and other costs increased from 
20.4% in Fiscal 1994 to 25.4% in Fiscal 1995. This increase resulted 
primarily from expanded advertising and promotional activities of the Company 
and greater pre-opening expenses in Fiscal 1995 compared to Fiscal 1994. 

   
   DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expense 
increased by $1.3 million, or 300.7%, from $415,000 in Fiscal 1994 to $1.7 
million in Fiscal 1995. As a percentage of total revenues, depreciation and 
amortization expense increased from 3.6% in Fiscal 1994 to 4.9% in Fiscal 
1995. This percentage increase resulted from higher depreciation expense 
associated with the purchase of five restaurant sites in Fiscal 1995 and from 
the amortization of goodwill associated with three restaurants acquired from 
franchisees in Fiscal 1995. All of the Company-owned restaurants opened prior 
to Fiscal 1995 are leased. 
    

   GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expense increased 
by $1.4 million, or 73.9%, from $1.9 million in Fiscal 1994 to $3.3 million 
in Fiscal 1995. This increase was a result of increasing the management and 
support staff infrastructure in anticipation of future expansion. As a 
percentage of total revenues, general and administrative expense declined 
from 16.8% in Fiscal 1994 to 9.7% in Fiscal 1995. The decrease in this 
percentage was primarily attributable to economies of scale resulting from a 
greater number of Company-owned restaurants in operation during Fiscal 1995. 

   
   TOTAL OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Total other income (expense) increased by 
$610,000 from a $571,000 expense in Fiscal 1994 to income of $39,000 in 
Fiscal 1995. This increase in total other income (expense) was primarily 
attributable to the Company's share of income earned by the Kendall, Florida 
Roadhouse Grill restaurant, which was accounted for under the equity method 
of accounting, and income from game rooms in new Company-owned restaurants, 
which income was partially offset by increased interest expense incurred in 
connection with the purchase of five restaurant sites in Fiscal 1995. 
    

   FISCAL 1994 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1993 

   
   RESTAURANTS OPEN. At the beginning of Fiscal 1993, there were no 
Company-owned restaurants in operation. The Company added three restaurants 
in each of Fiscal 1993 and Fiscal 1994 (including the North Miami, Florida 
Roadhouse Grill restaurant added in Fiscal 1993, which was owned by a limited 
liability company in which the Company held a 50% ownership interest, and the 
Kendall, Florida Roadhouse Grill restaurant added in Fiscal 1994, which was 
owned by a separate limited liability company in which the Company held a 50% 
ownership interest). As of the end of Fiscal 1994, the Company had six 
Company-owned restaurants in operation. 
    

   TOTAL REVENUES. Total revenues increased $7.9 million, or 228.6%, from 
$3.5 million in Fiscal 1993 to $11.4 million in Fiscal 1994. This increase 
was attributable to the opening of two 100% Company-owned restaurants during 
Fiscal 1994 and the inclusion of a full year of operations for the two 100% 
Company-owned restaurants opened in Fiscal 1993. 

                               17           
<PAGE>
   FOOD AND BEVERAGE. Food and beverage costs increased by $2.6 million, or 
177.7%, from $1.5 million in Fiscal 1993 to $4.1 million in Fiscal 1994, but 
decreased as a percentage of total revenues from 42.4% in Fiscal 1993 to 
35.9% in Fiscal 1994. This decrease was attributable primarily to lower food 
costs during Fiscal 1994 that resulted from the introduction of portion 
controls and improved inventory management. 

   LABOR AND BENEFITS. Labor and benefits costs increased by $3.6 million, or 
366.2%, from $988,000 in Fiscal 1993 to $4.6 million in Fiscal 1994. As a 
percentage of total revenues, labor and benefits costs increased from 28.5% 
in Fiscal 1993 to 40.4% in Fiscal 1994. This increase in labor and benefits 
costs was a result of overstaffing existing restaurants in order to hire and 
train managers and staff for restaurants to be opened. 

   OCCUPANCY AND OTHER. Occupancy and other costs increased by $1.1 million, 
or 90.2%, from $1.2 million in Fiscal 1993 to $2.3 million in Fiscal 1994, 
but decreased as a percentage of total revenues from 35.2% in Fiscal 1993 to 
20.4% in Fiscal 1994. The decrease in this percentage reflects unusually high 
occupancy and other costs as a percentage of total revenues in Fiscal 1993, 
which resulted primarily from spreading costs associated with the opening of 
the Company's first three restaurants over a small revenue base in Fiscal 
1993. 

   DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expense 
increased by $368,000 from $47,000 in Fiscal 1993 to $415,000 in Fiscal 1994. 
As a percentage of total revenues, depreciation and amortization increased 
from 1.4% in Fiscal 1993 to 3.6% in Fiscal 1994 primarily as a result of 
depreciation associated with two restaurants opened late in Fiscal 1993 and 
three restaurants opened in Fiscal 1994. 

   GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expense increased 
by $1.6 million from $280,000 in Fiscal 1993 to $1.9 million in Fiscal 1994. 
As a percentage of total revenues, general and administrative expense 
increased from 8.1% in Fiscal 1993 to 16.8% in Fiscal 1994. This increase was 
the result of the recruitment and hiring of additional management and support 
staff in anticipation of future growth. 

   TOTAL OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Total other income (expense) decreased by 
$398,000 from a $173,000 expense in Fiscal 1993 to a $571,000 expense in 
Fiscal 1994. The decrease in total other income (expense) was primarily 
attributable to losses incurred by the North Miami and Kendall, Florida 
Roadhouse Grill restaurants, which were accounted for under the equity method 
of accounting, and incremental financing costs associated with the Company's 
growth. 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES 

   The Company requires capital principally for the opening of new 
restaurants and has financed its requirements through the private placement 
of Common Stock and Preferred Stock and loans from certain private parties, 
including present and former shareholders of the Company. 

   
   In July 1996, the Company issued promissory notes in the principal amounts 
of $1.5 million and $500,000 to a former Chairman of the Board of Directors 
of the Company and to a shareholder of the Company, respectively. These notes 
were repaid by the Company in August 1996 with the funds received in 
connection with the issuance of a promissory note in the principal amount of 
$2.0 million to Berjaya, the Company's principal shareholder. In September 
1996, the Company issued another promissory note in the principal amount of 
$1.5 million to such former Chairman of the Board. Also in September 1996, 
the Company issued an additional promissory note in the principal amount of 
$3.0 million to Berjaya. The proceeds of these loans were used for opening 
new restaurants, and the Company intends to repay these notes with the net 
proceeds of the Offering. See "Management--Compensation Committee Interlocks 
and Insider Participation." 

   In September 1996, the Company borrowed $500,000 from SunTrust Bank, 
Miami, N.A. Such loan is unsecured, bears interest at the bank's prime rate 
plus 1% and is due and payable on December 31, 1996. The proceeds of this 
loan will be used for general corporate purposes. 
    

                               18           
<PAGE>
   The Company's capital expenditures aggregated approximately $8.8 million 
for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1996, substantially all of 
which was used to open Roadhouse Grill restaurants. During such period, the 
Company received approximately $5.0 million from the private placement of 
Common Stock. Net cash provided by operating activities during the twenty-six 
week period ended June 30, 1996 was approximately $680,000. 

   The Company's capital expenditures aggregated $14.5 million for Fiscal 
1995, substantially all of which was used to open Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants. In addition, the Company acquired two restaurants for aggregate 
cash consideration of $3.0 million. During Fiscal 1995, the Company received 
approximately $6.0 million from the private placement of Common Stock. It 
also borrowed funds in the aggregate amount of approximately $2.5 million 
from a former Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company (who is also 
a former shareholder), which loans were consolidated and extended in January 
1996. In addition, the Company borrowed $600,000 from the owner of a 50% 
interest in Kendall Roadhouse Grill, L.C. and approximately $3.5 million from 
Berjaya. Net cash used in operating activities during Fiscal 1995 was 
approximately $784,000. 

   
   The Company's capital expenditures aggregated approximately $10.1 million 
for Fiscal 1994, substantially all of which was used to open Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants. During Fiscal 1994, the Company received approximately $20.8 
million from the private placement of the Issued Preferred Stock and Common 
Stock. Net cash used in operating activities during Fiscal 1994 was $1.8 
million. 
    

   The Company's capital expenditures aggregated $1.4 million during Fiscal 
1993, substantially all of which was used to open Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants. During Fiscal 1993, the Company received $1.6 million in 
connection with the issuance of promissory notes to Berjaya and $100,500 from 
the private placement of Common Stock. In addition, net cash provided by 
operating activities during 1993 was approximately $40,000. 

   
   The Company expects to open two additional Roadhouse Grill restaurants 
during the remainder of 1996 and approximately 15 restaurants during 1997. 
The Company expects that the average cash investment required to open its 
prototype restaurants, excluding real estate costs and pre-opening expenses, 
will be approximately $950,000 or $1.3 million, depending on whether the 
Company converts an existing building or constructs a new restaurant. The 
Company believes that the net proceeds of the Offering together with cash 
from operations, will be sufficient to fund its working capital needs for the 
next eight months. In order to complete its anticipated expansion through 
1997, the Company will be required to incur short-term or long-term 
indebtedness or issue, in public or private transactions, equity or debt 
securities. Upon completion of the Offering, the Company intends to seek a 
bank line of credit for purposes of obtaining additional funding for such 
expansion. However, there can be no assurance that such line of credit, or 
any other debt or equity financing will be available on terms acceptable to 
the Company, if at all, or, if available, will be available in an amount 
sufficient to fund the Company's working capital needs, including anticipated 
expansion. 
    

   As is common in the restaurant industry, the Company has generally 
operated with negative working capital ($7.1 million as of June 30, 1996). 
The Company does not have significant receivables or inventory and receives 
trade credit on its purchases of food and supplies. 

SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY RESULTS 

   The Company's sales and earnings fluctuate seasonally. Historically, the 
Company's highest earnings have occurred in its first and fourth fiscal 
quarters. In addition, quarterly results have been, and in the future are 
likely to be, substantially affected by the timing of new restaurant 
openings. Because of the seasonality of the Company's business and the impact 
of new restaurant openings, results for any quarter are not necessarily 
indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year. 

IMPACT OF INFLATION 

   The Company does not believe that inflation has materially affected its 
results of operations during the past three fiscal years. Substantial 
increases in costs and expenses, particularly food, supplies, labor 

                               19           
<PAGE>
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. 

ACCOUNTING MATTERS 

   Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for 
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of", requires that 
long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by 
an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in 
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be 
recoverable. Impairment is evaluated by comparing future cash flows 
(undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from use of 
the asset and its eventual disposition to the carrying amount of the asset. 
This new accounting principle was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 
1996. As of January 1, 1996 and June 30, 1996, this new accounting principle 
had no material impact on the Company's financial position or results of 
operations. 

   In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for 
Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS No. 123), which becomes effective for 
financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. SFAS 
No. 123 defines a fair value based method of accounting for an employee stock 
option or similar equity instrument and encourages all entities to adopt that 
method of accounting for all of their employee stock compensation plans. 
However, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost 
for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting 
prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for 
Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25). The Company is currently accounting for

                                   BUSINESS 

GENERAL 

   
   The Company currently owns and operates 30 and franchises or licenses six 
full-service, casual dining restaurants under the name "Roadhouse Grill." The 
Roadhouse Grill concept offers a fun, value-oriented dining experience that 
features premium quality grilled entrees and friendly service consistent with 
the Company's motto: "Good Food and a Smile . . . That's Roadhouse 
Style."/registered trademark/ The comfortable, entertaining roadhouse setting 
is designed to appeal to a broad range of customers, including business 
people, couples, singles and particularly families. 

   Roadhouse Grill restaurants are based upon a roadhouse-style concept 
developed in 1991 by the Company's founder and chief executive officer, John 
D. Toole, III. In March 1993, Mr. Toole introduced the roadhouse-style 
concept to South Florida by opening the first Roadhouse Grill restaurant in 
Pembroke Pines (Fort Lauderdale) with the financial backing of other 
restaurant entrepreneurs. Since that time, the Company has grown rapidly, 
adding two additional restaurants in 1993, three restaurants in 1994, 13 
restaurants in 1995 and, to date, 11 restaurants in 1996. The Company also 
franchises or licenses three restaurants in Malaysia and three restaurants in 
the United States. A substantial portion of the funding for the Company's 
rapid expansion was obtained from capital investments and loans from Berjaya, 
its principal shareholder and an affiliate of the Company's franchisees for 
Asia and the Pacific Rim. 
    

THE ROADHOUSE GRILL CONCEPT 

   The key elements that define the Roadhouse Grill concept are: 

   
   /bullet/ COMFORTABLE, OPEN LAYOUT. Roadhouse Grill restaurants have an 
            energetic and casual atmosphere. The interior of each restaurant 
            is large, open and visually appealing, with exposed ceilings and 
            brick and lapboard cedar walls decorated with colorful, 
            hand-painted murals and neon signs. Multi-level seating provides 
            guests with a full view of the restaurant, including the 
            exhibition grill and display kitchen, allowing everyone to enjoy 
            the Roadhouse Grill experience. The exhibition cooking area 
            features a mesquite-fired grill, a kitchen where homemade yeast 
            rolls are made throughout the day and a display case filled with 
            fresh cuts of meat, seafood and salads. To help create Roadhouse 
            Grill's casual ambience, metal pails of roasted peanuts top each 
            table, guests are encouraged to toss peanut shells on the floor, 
            drinks are served in mason jars, long neck beers are delivered in 
            metal buckets filled with ice, and a classic jukebox entertains 
            guests with popular rock and country and western music. The 
            exterior of each restaurant features rough-sawed siding, a 
            wrap-around wood plank porch, a tin roof trimmed in neon and an 
            oversized "Roadhouse Grill" sign. 
    

   /bullet/ PREMIUM QUALITY GRILLED ENTREES AND DIVERSE MENU. The Roadhouse 
            Grill menu features aged USDA Choice steaks, ribs, chicken and 
            seafood. An in-house butcher at each restaurant cuts and trims 
            the steaks and prime rib, which are aged both before and after 
            carving. In addition to grilled selections, the menu includes a 
            variety of appetizers, sandwiches, salads and desserts, including 
            signature items such as Roadhouse cheese wraps, 
            hot-out-of-the-oven yeast rolls made from scratch each day and a 
            daily selection of homemade ice cream. 

   
   /bullet/ HIGH VALUE TO GUESTS. Roadhouse Grill strives to provide a high 
            value dining experience for its guests by offering a broad, 
            moderately-priced menu and serving generous portions. At 
            Roadhouse Grill restaurants, the price of each entree includes a 
            choice of house or caesar salad, a choice of baked sweet potato, 
            baked potato, home fries, french fries or rice pilaf and 
            hot-out-of-the-oven homemade yeast rolls. From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. 
            Monday through Friday, each Roadhouse Grill offers a selection of 
            13 "Lunch in a Rush" menu items ranging from grilled steak salad 
            to a half-order of ribs, all served to order in under 10 minutes 
            and priced at $5.99 or less. For the nine months ended September 
            29, 1996, the average guest check, including beverage, was 
            approximately $8.75 for lunch and $13.25 for dinner. 
    

                               21           
<PAGE>
   /bullet/ BROAD CUSTOMER APPEAL; FOCUS ON FAMILIES. The Roadhouse Grill 
            concept is designed to appeal to a broad range of customers, 
            including business people, couples, singles and particularly 
            families. The Company believes that to be attractive to families 
            a concept must be appealing to both children and parents. 
            Consequently, Roadhouse Grill restaurants furnish children with 
            coloring menus, balloons and a free souvenir cup, and all 
            Roadhouse Grill prototype restaurants have a game room featuring 
            pinball and video games. In addition, each restaurant offers a 
            special "Kids' Menu" featuring an assortment of entrees for 
            $2.99. In 1995, Roadhouse Grill was voted a "Best Family 
            Restaurant" in a survey conducted by SOUTH FLORIDA PARENTING 
            magazine. For adults, each Roadhouse Grill restaurant offers 
            beverages from its full-service bar, which is separated from the 
            dining area. 

   /bullet/ EFFICIENT, PERSONALIZED SERVICE. The Company believes that a 
            distinctive, enjoyable dining experience is made possible through 
            excellent service. Accordingly, the Company hires individuals who 
            possess strong initiative and the ability to provide quality and 
            personalized service. Roadhouse Grill attempts to foster the 
            individuality of its employees, encouraging them to converse and 
            interact with guests on a friendly, casual basis. Servers often 
            sit down at the table with guests to take orders, and the 
            restaurant manager visits each table to help ensure customer 
            satisfaction. 

EXPANSION STRATEGY 

   
   The Company's primary expansion strategy is to continue opening 
Company-owned restaurants in targeted markets in the United States. The 
Company plans to open restaurants primarily in selected medium and large 
metropolitan areas primarily in the Southeast and Gulf Coast regions. In 
addition, the Company is evaluating prospects for opening restaurants in Ohio 
and is considering opening additional restaurants in upstate New York. In 
each target market, the Company intends to cluster multiple restaurants to 
help build brand awareness and increase efficiencies in marketing and 
management. As of the date hereof, the Company had added eleven restaurants 
in 1996, and it plans to open two additional Company-owned restaurants during 
the remainder of 1996. In 1997, the Company plans to open approximately 15 
restaurants, for a total of approximately 47 Company-owned restaurants by the 
end of 1997. 

   The Company also intends to actively support the development of Roadhouse 
Grill restaurants in Asia and the Pacific Rim through its international 
franchisees, Roadhouse Grill Asia Pacific (H.K.) Limited, a Hong Kong 
corporation ("Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong"), and Roadhouse Grill Asia Pacific 
(Cayman) Limited, a Cayman Islands corporation ("Roadhouse Grill Asia"), both 
of which are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Berjaya. The Company expects that 
Roadhouse Grill Asia, which currently operates three Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, will develop at least two additional 
Roadhouse Grill restaurants in 1997. Berjaya is a wholly-owned subsidiary of 
Berjaya Group Berhad ("Berjaya Berhad"), a publicly-traded Malaysian Company 
with diversified interests, which operates more than 25 other restaurants in 
Asia and the Pacific Rim. Although the Company has granted rights for the 
development of Roadhouse Grill restaurants in certain areas of the United 
States, it plans to concentrate domestic expansion on the opening of 
Company-owned restaurants. 
    

SITE SELECTION; DESIGN AND LAYOUT 

   The Company believes the site selection process is critical to the 
long-term success of any restaurant and, accordingly, devotes significant 
time and effort to the investigation and evaluation of potential locations. 
Among the factors it considers in the site selection process are market 
demographics (including population, age and median household income), traffic 
patterns and activity, site visibility and accessibility, and proximity to 
residential developments, office complexes, hotels, retail establishments and 
entertainment areas. The Company also considers existing or potential 
competition in the area and attempts to analyze the performance of other area 
restaurants. Currently, Company-owned restaurants are operated on both owned 
and leased sites, with a majority being leased. 

                               22           
<PAGE>
   Management generally determines which geographic areas may be suitable for 
Roadhouse Grill restaurants and then employs real estate agents and brokers 
to identify potential sites in each area. In connection with the Company's 
evaluation, Company personnel visit and analyze each potential site. After a 
location has been leased or purchased and the necessary licenses and permits 
obtained, the average time for construction of new Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants has been approximately 120 days and the average time for 
renovation of an existing building has been approximately 90 days. However, 
there can be no assurance that such construction schedules can be maintained 
in the future. 

   Roadhouse Grill restaurants are large, open and visually appealing, with 
exposed ceilings and brick and lapboard cedar walls decorated with colorful, 
hand-painted murals and neon signs. The prototypical interior also includes 
multi-level seating, an exhibition grill and display kitchen and a game room 
featuring pinball and video games. The exterior of each restaurant features 
rough-sawed siding, a wrap-around wood plank porch, a tin roof trimmed in 
neon and an oversized "Roadhouse Grill" sign. Company-owned restaurants 
opened prior to March 1996 range generally from 6,000 to 8,500 square feet in 
size. During the last year, the Company refined its prototype from 
approximately 7,500 square feet (with seating for approximately 235 guests) 
to approximately 6,800 square feet (with seating for approximately 210 
guests) in an effort to reduce construction costs without significantly 
impacting restaurant sales. The Company expects the average cash investment 
required to open its prototype restaurants, excluding real estate costs and 
pre-opening expenses, will be approximately $950,000 or $1.3 million, 
depending on whether the Company converts an existing building or constucts a 
new restaurant. However, there can be no assurance that the cost of opening 
Roadhouse Grill restaurants in the future will not increase. See "Risk 
Factors--Limited Operating History; Operating Losses" and "Risk 
Factors--Risks of Rapid Expansion; Management of Growth." 

RESTAURANT ECONOMICS 

   
   The Company believes that Company-owned Roadhouse Grill restaurants have 
achieved attractive unit level economics. The 12 Company-owned restaurants 
which were open for the entire twelve-month period ended June 30, 1996 
generated average restaurant revenues of approximately $2.9 million, average 
restaurant cash flow of approximately $380,000 and average restaurant 
operating income after depreciation and amortization of approximately 
$217,000. The average cash investment, excluding real estate costs and 
pre-opening expenses, required to open each of the 27 Company-owned Roadhouse 
Grill restaurants opened by the Company prior to September 29, 1996 was 
approximately $1.3 million. For the Company's 11 owned properties, the 
average real estate acquisition cost was approximately $880,000. However, 
there can be no assurance that existing or new restaurants will achieve unit 
economics in the future at the levels achieved in the twelve months ended 
June 30, 1996 or that the cost of opening a Roadhouse Grill restaurant will 
not increase. See "Risk Factors--Limited Operating History; Operating Losses" 
and "Risk Factors--Risks of Rapid Expansion; Management of Growth."

   The Company currently has under construction, and expects to open by the 
end of 1996, two restaurants, one each in Rochester, New York and Duluth 
(Atlanta), Georgia. In addition to the foregoing, nine sites for restaurants 
that are expected to open in 1997 have been acquired or leased, one each in 
Mobile, Alabama; Melbourne and Doral (Miami), Florida; Gretna and Shreveport, 
Louisiana; Biloxi and Jackson, Mississippi; Columbus, Ohio; and Columbia, 
South Carolina, four of which are currently under construction. 

   Of the Company's 30 restaurants, 19 are located on leased sites. Existing 
restaurant leases have expiration dates ranging from December 1996 to April 
2015. The Company leases approximately 8,000 square feet for its corporate 
offices in Fort Lauderdale, Florida under a three year lease which expires 
September 30, 1998. 
    

MENU AND PRICING 

   
   The Roadhouse Grill menu features USDA Choice steaks and prime rib, beef 
ribs, chicken and seafood, all of which are grilled to order. The Company's 
steaks and prime rib are aged both before and after being cut and trimmed by 
each restaurant's in-house butcher. The menu features over sixty items, 
including eight cuts of steak ranging from 6 oz. to 18 oz. In addition to 
grilled selections, the menu offers a wide variety of appetizers, sandwiches, 
salads and desserts, including signature items such as Roadhouse cheese 
wraps, hot-out-of-the-oven yeast rolls made from scratch each day and a daily 
selection of homemade ice cream. Each entree is served with a choice of a 
house salad or caesar salad, a choice of baked sweet potato, baked potato, 
home fries, french fries or rice pilaf and homemade yeast rolls. Roadhouse 
Grill restaurants are open seven days a week for lunch and dinner and offer 
full bar service. Prices range from $2.99 to $6.29 for lunch entrees and from 
$4.99 to $15.99 for dinner entrees. From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through 
Friday, in addition to its full menu, each Roadhouse Grill offers a selection 
of 13 "Lunch in a Rush" menu items ranging from grilled steak salad to a 
half-order of ribs, all prepared to order in under 10 minutes and priced at 
$5.99 or less. For the nine months ended September 29, 1996, the average 
guest check, including beverage, was approximately $8.75 for lunch and $13.25 
for dinner. 
    

RESTAURANT OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT 

   
   RESTAURANT PERSONNEL. The Company believes that excellent service 
contributes significantly to a distinctive, enjoyable dining experience. 
Accordingly, the Company seeks to hire individuals who possess strong 
initiative and the ability to provide quality and personalized service. 
Roadhouse Grill attempts to foster the individuality of its employees, 
encouraging them to interact with customers on a friendly, casual basis. 
Consistent with the Company's preference to promote from within, restaurant 
managers generally are selected from Company personnel. The Company seeks to 
retain high-quality restaurant managers and personnel by providing them with 
opportunities for promotion and financial incentives based on individual 
restaurant performance. These financial incentives include a bonus plan which 
enables each restaurant manager to earn a portion of a bonus pool by 
achieving certain predetermined performance goals. During Fiscal 1995, the 
Company's turnover rates were approximately 55% for restaurant staff and 21% 
for restaurant managers, which are significantly below the restaurant 
industry averages of 92% for staff employees and 50% for managers (as 
reported by the National Restaurant Association). 
    

   Roadhouse Grill restaurants generally operate with five managers, 
including a general manager, an assistant general manager, a kitchen manager 
and two assistant managers. The general manager of each restaurant has 
primary responsibility for managing the day-to-day operations of the 
restaurant in accordance with Company standards. The general manager and 
kitchen manager of each restaurant generally are responsible for 
interviewing, hiring and training restaurant staff. Each restaurant has a 
staff of approximately 90 employees, which includes at least one full-time, 
in-house butcher. The Company currently employs eight area supervisors, each 
of whom is responsible for three to four restaurants. The supervisors report 
to regional directors, each of whom has responsibility for four supervisors. 
The Company currently has two regional directors, who communicate daily with 
the Vice President of Operations.

   The Company devotes a significant amount of time and resources to 
restaurant management and staff training. Each new manager participates in an 
eight-week training program, which is conducted at designated training 
restaurants, before assuming an assistant manager position (or, in some 
instances, a kitchen manager position) at a Roadhouse Grill restaurant. This 
program is designed to provide training in all areas of restaurant 
operations, including food preparation and service, alcoholic beverage 
service, Company philosophy, operating standards, policies and procedures, 
and business management and administration techniques. The managers of the 
training restaurant conduct weekly evaluations of each manager trainee. 

   In connection with the opening of each new restaurant, the Company sends 
one of its two full-time, 16-member training teams to train and assist the 
new restaurant employees. The training team generally arrives at each 
restaurant two weeks prior to opening and remains for four weeks after 
opening. Typically, the top three managers (the general manager, the 
assistant general manager and the kitchen manager) of each new restaurant are 
individuals who have been managers at an existing Roadhouse Grill restaurant. 

   
   INTERNAL CONTROLS; RESTAURANT REPORTING. The Company maintains financial 
and accounting controls for each of its restaurants through the use of 
centralized accounting and management information systems. The Company uses a 
computerized point-of-sale system to collect sales information from each 
restaurant, and restaurant managers are provided access to the operating 
statements for their restaurants. 
    

   PURCHASING. Roadhouse Grill operates a centralized purchasing system that 
is utilized by all restaurants operated by the Company (except those located 
in upstate New York). The Company purchased approximately 87% of its food and 
other products from two distributors during Fiscal 1995. Beginning August 5, 
1996, the Company began doing business with only one of these two principal 
distributors and anticipates that approximately 80% of its food and other 
products will be purchased from that distributor. See "Risk Factors--Changes 
in Food and Other Costs; Supply Risks." 

ADVERTISING AND MARKETING 

   
   The Company attempts to build brand awareness by providing a distinctive 
dining experience that results in a significant number of new customers being 
attracted through word of mouth, as well as by traditional marketing efforts 
and promotional activities. The Company believes that clustering multiple 
restaurants in target markets will help build brand awareness and increase 
efficiencies in its marketing efforts. The Company's marketing efforts are 
centered around print media and radio advertisements using the voice of 
"Cowboy Jim," the Company's mascot, and, to a lesser extent, the use of 
outdoor billboards. The Company also markets at the restaurant level through 
sponsorship of community charity activities, sporting events, festivals and 
Chamber of Commerce events. Prior to opening a restaurant, the Company 
typically conducts a six-week print and radio advertising campaign and holds 
a "VIP Night" at which city officials, Chamber of Commerce members, police, 
fire and rescue personnel, local business people, area media and others are 
invited to have "dinner on the Roadhouse." At certain restaurants, the 
Company also is test marketing t-shirts and other merchandise bearing the 
Roadhouse Grill name and logo to increase the Company's brand recognition. 
During the thirty-nine week period ended September 29, 1996, the Company 
spent approximately 3.9% of its revenues on advertising and marketing 
activities. 
    

FRANCHISING 

   
   The Company has granted franchise rights to the Roadhouse Grill concept in 
Asia and the Pacific Rim and in certain limited geographic areas in the 
United States. Pursuant to its expansion strategy, the Company expects to 
concentrate its future franchising activity in Asia and the Pacific Rim 
through its international franchisees, Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong and 
Roadhouse Grill Asia. Although the Company's United States franchisees may 
open a limited number of additional franchised restaurants in their 
respective territories, the Company does not intend to grant additional 
franchise rights in the 

                               26           
<PAGE>
United States, other than any rights that may be granted to the licensee of 
the Gresham, Oregon and San Diego, California Roadhouse Grill restaurants. 
See "--Domestic Franchising." 
    

   INTERNATIONAL FRANCHISING. In January 1996, the Company entered into a 
Master Development Agreement with Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong, which provides 
for the development and franchising of Roadhouse Grill restaurants in Hong 
Kong. Under the agreement, Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong is not required to 
develop any specific number of restaurants in Hong Kong, but any restaurants 
that it develops are credited against the development obligations of 
Roadhouse Grill Asia under Roadhouse Grill Asia's Master Development 
Agreement with the Company. Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong is not required to pay 
any franchise or reservation fee for restaurants that it develops, but it is 
responsible for paying or reimbursing approved expenses incurred by the 
Company in connection with the opening of each restaurant. In addition, 
Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong is required to pay a royalty in connection with the 
operation of each of its restaurants in the amount of 2.0% of gross sales for 
each restaurant's first three years of operation and 3.0% thereafter. Under 
certain circumstances, Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong or the Company may grant 
franchises to third parties in Hong Kong. In that event, the Company is 
entitled to receive 50% of any franchise and reservation fees and 50% of any 
royalty fee payable by the third party franchisee, subject to limitations on 
the amounts payable to the Company of $10,000 per restaurant in the case of 
franchise and reservations fees and 2.5% of gross sales in the case of 
royalty fees. 

   In January 1996, the Company also entered into a Master Development 
Agreement with Roadhouse Grill Asia which covers countries in Asia and the 
Pacific Rim (other than Hong Kong), including, but not limited to, Australia, 
China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, North Korea, South 
Korea, The Philippines and Thailand. Under the agreement, Roadhouse Grill 
Asia is required to open and maintain at least 30 Roadhouse Grill Restaurants 
during the first ten years of the term of the agreement, with a minimum of 
two restaurants to be developed each year. Under certain circumstances, 
Roadhouse Grill Asia or the Company may grant franchises to third parties in 
the territory. The fee arrangements under the agreement are substantially the 
same as those under the agreement between the Company and Roadhouse Grill 
Hong Kong. See "Certain Transactions." 

   
   DOMESTIC FRANCHISING. The Company has entered into franchise or license 
arrangements for the development and operation of Roadhouse Grill restaurants 
in Gresham, Oregon, Boca Raton, Florida, San Diego, California, Clark County, 
Nevada and the Greater Delaware Valley Region of Pennsylvania. The Gresham 
Roadhouse Grill has been in operation since January 1993; the Boca Raton 
Roadhouse Grill has been in operation since December 1994; the San Diego 
Roadhouse Grill has been in operation since January 1996; the Nevada 
franchisee commenced construction of its first restaurant in July 1996; and 
the Pennsylvania franchisee is currently evaluating sites for its restaurant. 
The Company is currently in negotiations with one of its licensees regarding 
exclusive development rights relating to additional Roadhouse Grill 
restaurants in a limited number of states in the western United States. There 
can be no assurance that an agreement on the terms currently being discussed 
will be reached or that an agreement will be reached at all. 
    

COMPETITION; RESTAURANT INDUSTRY 

   The restaurant industry is highly competitive. The Company competes with a 
broad range of restaurants, including national and regional casual dining 
chains as well as locally-owned restaurants, some of which operate with 
concepts similar to that of the Company. Many of the Company's competitors 
are well established and have substantially greater market presence and 
financial and other resources than the Company. The entrance of new 
competitors into the Company's market areas or the expansion of operations by 
existing competitors could have a material adverse effect on the Company's 
results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the Company 
competes with other restaurant companies and retailers for sites, labor and, 
in many cases, customers. The Company believes that the key competitive 
factors in the restaurant industry are quality of food and service, price, 
location and concept. To the extent that one or more of its competitors 
becomes more successful in respect of any key competitive factors, the 
Company's business could be adversely affected. See "Risk Factors--
Competition." 

                               27           
<PAGE>
   The restaurant industry is affected by changes in consumer tastes as well 
as national, regional and local economic conditions, demographic trends, 
traffic patterns, and the type, number and location of competing restaurants. 
Dependence on fresh meats and produce also subjects restaurant companies to 
the risk that shortages or interruptions of supply could adversely affect the 
availability, quality or cost of ingredients. In addition, factors such as 
inflation, increased food, labor and employee benefit costs and the 
availability of qualified management and hourly employees also may adversely 
affect the restaurant industry generally and the Company's restaurants in 
particular. The success and future profitability of the Company will depend 
in part on its ability to identify and to respond appropriately to changing 
conditions within the restaurant industry. See "Risk Factors--Restaurant 
Industry." 

GOVERNMENT REGULATION 

   Each Roadhouse Grill restaurant is subject to numerous federal, state and 
local laws and governmental regulations, including those relating to the 
preparation, sale and service of food and alcoholic beverages, designation of 
non-smoking and smoking areas, accessibility of restaurants to disabled 
customers, development and construction of restaurants and environmental 
matters. Roadhouse Grill also is subject to laws governing its relationship 
with employees, including minimum wage requirements, overtime, working 
conditions and immigration requirements. Difficulties or failures in 
obtaining the required construction and operating licenses, permits or 
approvals could delay or prevent the opening of a new restaurant. Roadhouse 
Grill believes that it is operating in compliance in all material respects 
with applicable laws and regulations that govern its operations. See "Risk 
Factors--Government Regulation." 

   Alcoholic beverage control regulations require each Roadhouse Grill 
restaurant to apply to a state authority and, in certain locations, county or 
municipal authorities for a license or permit to sell alcoholic beverages on 
the premises and to provide service for extended hours. Typically, licenses 
must be renewed annually and may be revoked or suspended for cause at any 
time. If a liquor license for any restaurant were lost, revenues for that 
restaurant would be adversely affected. Alcoholic beverage control 
regulations relate to numerous aspects of the Company's restaurants, 
including minimum age of patrons consuming and employees serving alcoholic 
beverages, hours of operation, advertising, wholesale purchasing, inventory 
control, and handling, storage and dispensing of alcoholic beverages. The 
Company is also subject 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. 

   In connection with its sale of franchises, the Company is subject to the 
United States Federal Trade Commission rules and regulations and state laws 
that regulate the offer and sale of franchises. The Company also is subject 
to laws that regulate certain aspects of the franchise relationship. 

   The Company is subject to various local, state and federal laws regulating 
the discharge of pollutants into the environment. The Company believes that 
its operations are in compliance in all material respects with applicable 
environmental laws and regulations. The Company conducts environmental audits 
of a proposed restaurant site in order to determine whether there is any 
evidence of contamination prior to purchasing or entering into a lease with 
respect to the site. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will 
not incur material environmental liability in connection with any of its 
owned or leased properties. 

EMPLOYEES 

   
   At September 25, 1996, the Company employed 283 salaried employees, of 
whom 29 served in corporate and administrative capacities and 254 served as 
restaurant management personnel. In addition, the Company employed 3,195 
persons on an hourly basis. None of the Company's employees is covered by a 
collective bargaining agreement, and the Company has never experienced an 
organized work stoppage, strike or labor dispute. The Company believes its 
relations with its employees are good.

TRADEMARKS, SERVICE MARKS AND TRADE DRESS 

   Roadhouse Grill believes its trademarks, service marks and trade dress are 
important to its marketing efforts. Roadhouse Grill has registered the 
"Roadhouse Grill" service mark, the "Cowboy Jim and rocking chair" design and 
the slogan "Good Food and a Smile . . . That's Roadhouse Style" with the U.S. 
Patent and Trademark Office. The Company also has applied for registration of 
the "Roadhouse Grill" service mark in approximately 30 foreign countries, 
including Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, 
Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, The Philippines, South Africa, Spain, 
Thailand and the United Kingdom. 

LITIGATION 

   The Company is party to certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary 
course of business. In the opinion of the Company, any resulting liability 
will not have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business.

at a weighted-average exercise price of $9.60 per share. All of the options 
granted to date under the 1994 Stock Option Plan vest over a three year 
period from the date of grant, subject to the acceleration of vesting upon a 
change of control of the Company. 

   The term of options is as determined by the Stock Option Committee but in 
any event may not exceed ten years from the date of grant. The exercise price 
may be paid in cash, property (including Common Stock) or a combination of 
both cash and property. 

   In addition to options that have been granted under the 1994 Stock Option 
Plan, the company has granted an option outside of the 1994 Stock Option Plan 
to J. David Toole, III pursuant to which Mr. Toole may acquire up to 166,667 
shares of the Company's Common Stock. Such options may be exercised at a 
price of $7.50 per share and have an expiration date of January 31, 2010. 
    

INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS 

   Pursuant to the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the 
company is obligated to indemnify each of its directors and officers to the 
fullest extent permitted by Florida law with respect to all liability and 
loss suffered, and reasonable expense incurred, by such person in any action, 
suit or proceeding in which such person was or is made or threatened to be 
made a party or is otherwise involved by reason of the fact that such person 
is or was a director or officer of the Company. The Company is also obligated 
to pay the reasonable expenses of indemnified directors or officers in 
defending such proceedings if the indemnified party agrees to repay all 
amounts advanced should it be ultimately determined that such person is not 
entitled to indemnification. 

   The Company maintains an insurance policy covering directors and officers 
under which the insurer agrees to pay, subject to certain exclusions, for any 
claim made against the directors and officers of the Company for a wrongful 
act for which they may become legally obligated to pay or for which the 
Company is required to indemnify its directors or officers. 

   
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

   The Company and John David Toole, III have entered into an employment 
agreement providing for Mr. Toole's employment as President of the Company 
through September 30, 1997. The agreement provides for an annual base salary 
of $120,000 and an annual bonus based on performance of the Company and 
certain of the Company's restaurants. The agreement provides that Mr. Toole 
will not compete with the Company for three years after termination of his 
employment. The Company and Mr. Toole are currently negotiating the terms of 
an amended employment agreement which would extend the term of Mr. Toole's 
employment through December 31, 1999, increase Mr. Toole's annual base salary 
to $200,000 and modify the terms of Mr. Toole's annual bonus. Under the 
amended agreement, Mr. Toole would be entitled to an annual bonus of 
$100,000, payable within ninety days after Fiscal 1996 and after each fiscal 
year of the Company if the Company's net income before taxes for such fiscal 
year exceeded the net income before taxes for the preceeding fiscal year. In 
addition, the amended agreement would provide for the grant of certain 
options to purchase Common Stock to Mr. Toole on an annual basis. 
    

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION 

   During Fiscal 1995, the Company had no Compensation Committee or other 
committee of the Board of Directors performing similar functions. Decisions 
concerning the compensation of executive officers were made by the full Board 
of Directors. In January 1996, the Board of Directors established a 
Compensation Committee. 

   
   In Fiscal 1995, the Company obtained loans in the aggregate amount of 
approximately $2.5 million from John Y. Brown, Jr. During Fiscal 1995, Mr. 
Brown was the former chairman of the board of 

                               33           
<PAGE>
Directors of the company and was a shareholder. In January 1996, these loans 
were consolidated and extended under the Company's unsecured promissory note 
dated January 15, 1996, in the principal amount of $2.5 million, bearing 
interest at 8.5% per annum, the principal of and accrued interest on which 
are due and payable in full upon the closing, and from the proceeds, of the 
Offering. The funds obtained by the Company from such loan were used to 
finance the opening of new restaurants. The loan was initially unsecured but 
in July 1996 was cross-collateralized by the lien granted on the additional 
$1.5 million loan described in the next paragraph. 

   In July 1996, the company borrowed an additional $1.5 million from Mr. 
Brown under the Company's secured promissory note dated July 12, 1996, 
bearing interest at 8.5% per annum, the principal of and accrued interest on 
which were paid on August 19, 1996 from a portion of the proceeds of the 
Company's $2.0 million loan from Berjaya described below. The loan, the 
proceeds of which were used to finance the opening of new restaurants, was 
secured by a lien on all of the furniture, fixtures and equipment located in 
the Company's restaurants on July 12, 1996 that had not been previously 
pledged to a third party. Following the repayment of this loan, the Company 
in September 1996 obtained a new loan from Mr. Brown in the amount of $1.5 
million, which was secured by the same collateral as the July 1996 note and 
which is evidenced by the Company's promissory note dated September 5, 1996, 
bearing interest at 5.0% per annum and payable in full upon the closing of 
the Offering. The proceeds of this loan were used for general corporate 
purposes, including opening new restaurants. 

   In July 1996, the Company borrowed $500,000 from Cupertino, a shareholder 
of the Company, under the Company's unsecured promissory note dated July 15, 
1996, bearing interest at 8.5% per annum, the principal of and accrued 
interest on which were paid on August 19, 1996. The proceeds of this loan 
were used to finance the opening of new restaurants. Dr. Christian F. Horn, 
the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, is the Managing 
Partner of Horn Ventures Partners II, L.P., which is a General Partner of 
Cupertino. 

   In August 1996, the Company borrowed $2.0 million from Berjaya, its 
principal shareholder, under an unsecured promissory note dated August 16, 
1996, bearing interest at 8.5% per annum, the principal of and accrued 
interest on which are due and payable in full upon the closing of the 
Offering. The proceeds of this loan were used to repay the July 1996 $1.5 
million loan from Mr. Brown and the $500,000 loan from Cupertino described 
above. In September 1996, the Company borrowed $3.0 million from Berjaya, its 
principal shareholder, under an unsecured promissory note dated September 27, 
1996, bearing interest at 8.5% per annum, the principal of and accrued 
interest on which are due and payable in full upon the closing of the 
offering. The proceeds of this loan were used for general corporate purposes, 
including opening new restaurants. Tan Kim Poh, a director of the Company, is 
Group Executive Director of Berjaya Berhad, which directly or indirectly owns 
Berjaya. 
    

   Berjaya directly or indirectly owns Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong and 
Roadhouse Grill Asia. In January 1996, the Company entered into a Master 
Development Agreement with Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong which provides for the 
development and franchising of Roadhouse Grill restaurants in Hong Kong. 
Under the agreement, Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong is not required to develop any 
specific number of restaurants in Hong Kong, but any restaurants that it 
develops are credited against the development obligations of Roadhouse Grill 
Asia under Roadhouse Grill Asia's Master Development Agreement with the 
Company. Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong is not required to pay any franchise or 
reservation fee for restaurants that it develops, but it is responsible for 
paying or reimbursing approved expenses incurred by the Company in connection 
with the opening of each restaurant. In addition, Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong 
is required to pay a royalty in connection with the operation of each of its 
restaurants in the amount of 2.0% of gross sales for each restaurant's first 
three years of operation and 3.0% thereafter. Under certain circumstances, 
Roadhouse Grill Hong Kong or the Company may grant franchises to third 
parties in Hong Kong. In that event, the Company is entitled to receive 50% 
of any franchise and reservation fees and 50% of any royalty fee payable by 
the third party franchisee, subject to limitations on the amounts payable to 
the Company of $10,000 per restaurant in the case of franchise and 
reservations fees and 2.5% of gross sales in the case of royalty fees.

   In January 1996, the company also entered into a Master Development 
Agreement with Roadhouse Grill Asia, which covers countries in Asia and the 
Pacific Rim (other than Hong Kong), including, but not limited to, Australia, 
China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, North Korea, South 
Korea, The Philippines and Thailand. Under the agreement, Roadhouse Grill 
Asia is required to open and maintain at least 30 Roadhouse Grill Restaurants 
during the first ten years of the term of the agreement, with a minimum of 
two restaurants to be developed each year. Under certain circumstances, 
Roadhouse Grill Asia or the Company may grant franchises to third parties in 
the territory. The fee arrangements under the agreement are substantially the 
same as those under the agreement between the Company and Roadhouse Grill 
Hong Kong. See "Certain Transactions." 

   The obligations of the original tenant, New York Roasters, Inc., Under the 
leases for the sites covering the Company's two restaurants in Buffalo, New 
York were assumed by the Company in December 1995. At the time of such 
assumptions, Mr. Brown was Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company 
and also President of Roasters Corp. New York Roasters, Inc. was a former 
franchisee of Roasters Corp. Except for the franchise relationship, neither 
Mr. Brown nor Roasters Corp. had, or currently has, any financial or other 
interest in New York Roasters, Inc. 

   
   Dr. Christian F. Horn, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of fhe 
Company, is a director of Buffets, Inc. A subsidiary of Buffets, Inc. is the 
licensee of the Company in the operation of Roadhouse Grill restaurants in 
Gresham, Oregon and San Diego, California, and is presently negotiating with 
the Company for the development of additional Roadhouse Grill restaurants.

                         DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK 

   
   The Company is authorized to issue 20 million shares of Common Stock, par 
value $.03 per share, and 10 million shares of Preferred Stock, par value 
$.01 per share. As of October 1, 1996, the Company had issued and outstanding 
4,747,386 shares of Common Stock, 3,422,500 shares of Series A Convertible 
Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred Stock") and 2,333,350 shares of Series B 
Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock"). As of September 25, 
1996, the Company had four holders of record of Common Stock, seven holders 
of record of Series A Preferred Stock and six holders of record of Series B 
Preferred Stock, respectively. 
    

COMMON STOCK 

   The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held 
on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Cumulative voting in the 
election of directors is not permitted and the holders of a majority of the 
number of outstanding shares of Common Stock are entitled to vote in any 
election of directors and may elect all of the directors standing for 
election. 

   Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if 
any, as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally 
available therefor, subject to any preferential dividend rights of 
outstanding Preferred Stock. Upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of 
the Company, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably the 
net assets of the Company available after the payment of all debts and other 
liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding Preferred 
Stock. The holders of Common Stock have no preemptive, subscription, 
redemption or conversion rights. The outstanding shares of Common Stock are, 
and the shares offered by the Company in this Offering, will be, when issued 
and paid for, fully paid and nonassessable. 

PREFERRED STOCK 

   
   The Company currently has issued and outstanding an aggregate of 3,422,500 
shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 2,333,350 shares of Series B Preferred 
Stock. Upon the closing of the Offering, all Issued Preferred Stock will be 
converted automatically into an aggregate of 1,918,616 shares of Common 
Stock. 

   After the Offering, the Company will have authorized 10,000,000 shares of 
undesignated Preferred Stock, 4,124,975 of which will be available for 
issuance. The Board of Directors is empowered by the Company's Articles of 
Incorporation to designate and issue from time to time one or more classes or 
series of such Preferred Stock without shareholder approval. The Board of 
Directors may fix and determine the relative rights, preferences and 
privileges of each class or series of Preferred Stock so issued. Because the 
Board of Directors has the power to establish the preferences and rights of 
each class or series of Preferred Stock, it may afford the holders of any 
series or class of Preferred Stock preferences, powers and rights, with 
respect to voting, liquidation or otherwise, senior to the rights of holders 
of Common Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock could have the effect of 
delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. The Board of 
Directors has no present plans to issue any shares of Preferred Stock. 
    

CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF FLORIDA LAW 

   Florida law provides that, unless the corporation has elected to opt out 
of such provisions in its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, a public 
corporation organized under Florida law is subject to certain statutory 
provisions that may have anti-takeover effects and that require special 
approvals for certain "affiliated transactions." These provisions, which are 
contained in the Florida Business Corporation Act, require, subject to 
certain exceptions, that an "affiliated transaction" be approved by the 
holders of two-thirds of the voting shares other than those beneficially 
owned by an "interested shareholder" or by a majority of disinterested 
directors and that voting rights be conferred on "control shares" acquired in 
specified control share acquisitions generally only to the extent conferred by 

                               37           
<PAGE>
resolution approved by the shareholders, excluding holders of shares defined 
as "interested shares." The Company has elected to opt out of the 
"control-share" acquisition provisions, but has not elected to opt out of the 
affiliated transactions provisions. In addition, Florida law presently limits 
the personal liability of a corporate director for monetary damages, except 
where the director (i) breaches his or her fiduciary duties and (ii) such 
breach constitutes or includes certain unlawful distributions or certain 
other reckless, wanton or willful acts or misconduct. 

   
RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL 

   Berjaya and several other existing shareholders of the Company are 
entitled to certain rights of first refusal with respect to the issuance of 
equity securities of the Company, other than shares issued in connection with 
an underwritten public offering . 
    

REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

   In connection with the private placement of its Common Stock and Issued 
Preferred Stock, the Company has granted certain registration rights to 
certain holders of its Issued Preferred Stock and Common Stock. The Company 
will have ongoing obligations with respect to those registration rights. See 
"Shares Eligible for Future Sale--Registration Rights." 

TRADING MARKET AND TRANSFER AGENT 

   No established trading market for the Common Stock existed prior to the 
Offering. An application has been made for the Common Stock to be designated 
on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "GRLL." The transfer agent for 
the Common Stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, and its address 
is 40 Wall Street, New York, New York 10005. 

                       SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE 

GENERAL 

   
   Upon completion of the Offering, the Company will have outstanding 
9,166,002 shares of Common Stock (assuming no exercise of outstanding options 
to purchase shares of Common Stock). Of these shares, the 2,500,000 shares of 
Common Stock sold in the Offering will be freely tradeable without 
restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any 
of such shares held by "affiliates" (as defined under the Securities Act) of 
the Company, which may generally only be sold in compliance with the 
applicable provisions of Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act ("Rule 
144"). The holders of the remaining 6,666,002 shares (the "Restricted 
Shares") will be entitled to sell their shares in the public securities 
market only if registered under the Securities Act or if sold in accordance 
with an applicable exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or Rule 701 
promulgated under the Securities Act. 

   In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons 
whose shares are aggregated), including an affiliate of the Company, who has 
beneficially owned Restricted Shares for at least two years is entitled to 
sell, within any three-month period, up to the number of Restricted Shares 
that does not exceed the greater of (i) one percent of the then outstanding 
shares of Common Stock (approximately 91,660 shares immediately after the 
Offering); or (ii) the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar 
weeks preceding the date on which notice of the sale is filed with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Sales under Rule 144 
are subject to certain restrictions relating to manner of sale, volume of 
sales and the availability of current public information about the Company. 
4,161,074 of the Restricted Shares will be eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 
144, subject to these restrictions, beginning 90 days after the date of this 
Prospectus, and 2,504,928 shares will become eligible for sale subject to 
certain restrictions at various times between May 1997 and May 1998. 

                               38           
<PAGE>
Further, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who is not deemed 
to have been an affiliate of the Company at any time during the three months 
immediately preceding the sale is entitled to sell Restricted Shares pursuant 
to rule 144(k) without regard to the volume limitations, current public 
information or manner of sale requirements of Rule 144, provided that at 
least three years have expired since the later of the date on which the 
Restricted Shares were acquired from the Company or the date they were 
acquired from an affiliate of the Company. Currently none of the Restricted 
Shares are eligible for sale pursuant to Rule 144(k). In addition to the 
foregoing, affiliates of the Company must comply with the restrictions and 
requirements of Rule 144 (other than the holding period requirement) in order 
to sell any Common Stock they own that does not constitute Restricted Shares. 
See "Risk Factors--Shares Eligible for Future Sale." 
    

   An employee, officer or director of, or consultant to, the Company who 
purchased his or her shares pursuant to a written compensatory plan or 
contract is entitled to rely on the resale provisions of Rule 701 under the 
Securities Act of 1933, which permits non-affiliates to sell their Rule 701 
Shares without having to comply with the public information, holding period, 
volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144 and permits affiliates to 
sell their Rule 701 shares without having to comply with Rule 144's holding 
period requirements, in each cash commencing 90 days after the date of this 
Prospectus. 

   
   The Company, its officers and directors and shareholders have agreed that 
they will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of, 
directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the 
Company that are substantially similar to the shares, including but not 
limited to any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or 
that represent the right to receive, shares of Common Stock or any such 
substantially similar securities, for a period of 180 days after the date of 
this Prospectus without the prior written consent of the Representatives, 
except that the Company may issue shares pursuant to the over-allotment 
option. 
    

   Prior to the Offering, there has been no market for the Common Stock, and 
there can be no assurance that an active public market will develop or 
continue after the Offering. Sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock in 
the public market, or the perception that sales may occur, could adversely 
affect the prevailing market price of the Common Stock or the ability of the 
Company to raise capital through a public offering of its equity securities. 
See "Risk Factors--Absence of Public Market; Price Volatility." 

REGISTRATION RIGHTS 

   
   Pursuant to certain registration rights agreements, the holders of the 
Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock have certain demand 
registration rights with respect to the 1,918,616 shares of Common Stock 
issuable upon conversion of such Series A and B Preferred Stock and certain 
holders of Common Stock have certain demand registration rights with respect 
to 4,605,719 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the "Subject Shares"). The 
demand registration rights, which require the Company to use its best efforts 
to effect the registration of the Subject Shares under the Securities Acts 
may be exercised by the holders of at least 50% of the Subject Shares after 
February 10, 1997, subject to limited exceptions. The Company is obligated to 
register Subject Shares pursuant to this demand registration right on two 
occasions only; provided, however, that the Company's obligation is deemed 
satisfied only when a registration statement covering at least 75% of the 
Subject Shares has become effective and, if the shares are to be sold in a 
firm commitment underwritten public offering, all of such shares have been 
sold pursuant to such offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, holders of 
Subject Shares have unlimited demand registration rights to the extent the 
Company may register Subject Shares on Form S-3 or any successor thereto, 
provided that the reasonably anticipated aggregate price to the public of the 
offering would exceed $500,000. The Company also is obligated to offer the 
holders of Subject Shares the right to register their shares pursuant to 
certain registration statements filed by the Company. 

   The Company has agreed to indemnify the holders of the Subject Shares for 
certain liabilities under applicable state and federal securities laws in 
connection with any offering pursuant to the 

                               39

exercise of registration rights. The Company will not indemnify the holders 
of Subject Shares for any liabilities resulting from information furnished in 
writing by such holders. Except in certain limited circumstances, the Company 
is obligated to pay all expenses incidental to a demand registration, 
excluding underwriters' discounts and commissions.

                                 UNDERWRITING 

   The Company has entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase 
Agreement") with the underwriters listed in the table below (the 
"Underwriters"), for whom Piper Jaffray Inc. and Robertson, Stephens & 
Company LLC are acting as representatives (the "Representatives"). Subject to 
the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Company has 
agreed to sell to the Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters has 
severally agreed to purchase, the number of shares of Common Stock set forth 
opposite each Underwriter's name in the table below.

  Total ..............................    2,500,000 
                                        ============ 
    

   Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the 
Underwriters have agreed to purchase all of the Common Stock being sold 
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, if any is purchased (excluding shares 
covered by the over-allotment option granted therein). In the event of a 
default by any Underwriter, the Purchase Agreement provides that, in certain 
circumstances, purchase commitments of the nondefaulting Underwriters may be 
increased or the Purchase Agreement may be terminated. 

   The Representatives have advised the Company that the Underwriters propose 
to offer the Common Stock directly to the public initially at the public 
offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus and to certain 
dealers at such price less a concession of not more than $     per share. 
Additionally, the Underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a 
concession not in excess of $     per share to certain other dealers. After 
the Offering, the public offering price and other selling terms may be 
changed by the Underwriters. 

   
   Of the 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock offered hereby by the Company, up 
to 250,000 of such shares will be reserved for sale to persons designated by 
the Company. There can be no assurance that such shares will be purchased by 
these persons. Shares not so purchased will be reoffered immediately by the 
Underwriters to the public at the initial public offering price. 

   The Company has granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable by the 
Representatives within 30 days after the date of the Purchase Agreement, to 
purchase up to an additional 375,000 shares of Common Stock at the same price 
per share to be paid by the Underwriters for the other shares offered hereby. 
If the Underwriters purchase any of such additional shares pursuant to this 
option, each Underwriter will be committed to purchase such additional shares 
in approximately the same proportion as set forth in the table above. The 
Underwriters may exercise the option only for the purpose of covering 
over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the distribution of the 
Common Stock offered hereby. 
    

   The Representatives have informed the Company that neither they, nor any 
member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD") 
participating in the distribution of the Offering, will make sales of the 
Common Stock offered hereby to accounts over which they exercise 
discretionary authority without the prior specific written approval of the 
customer. 

   The Offering of the shares of Common Stock is made for delivery when, as 
and if accepted by the Underwriters and subject to prior sale and to 
withdrawal, cancellation or modification of the Offering without notice. The 
Underwriters reserve the right to reject an order for the purchase of shares 
in whole or in part. 

                               41           
<PAGE>
   
   The officers, directors and shareholders of the Company who will 
beneficially own in the aggregate 6,666,002 shares of Common Stock after the 
Offering, have agreed that they will not offer, sell, contract to sell, 
pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common 
Stock or other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to 
the shares, including but not limited to any securities that are convertible 
into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, shares of 
Common Stock or any such substantially similar securities, owned by them 
prior to the date of the Prospectus for a period of 180 days after the date 
of this Prospectus, without the prior written consent of Piper Jaffray Inc. 
The Company has agreed that it will not, without the Representatives' prior 
written consent, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose 
of any shares of Common Stock, options or warrants to acquire shares of 
Common Stock or securities exchangeable for or convertible into shares of 
Common Stock during the 180-day period following the date of this Prospectus, 
except that the Company may issue shares upon the exercise of options and 
warrants granted prior to the date hereof, and may grant additional options 
under the 1994 Stock Option Plan. 
    

   Prior to the Offering, there has been no public market for the Common 
Stock. The initial public offering price for the Common Stock offered hereby 
has been determined by negotiation among the Company and the Representatives. 
Among the factors considered in determining the initial public offering price 
were prevailing market and economic conditions, the Company's revenue and 
earnings, estimates of the business potential and prospects of the Company, 
the present state of the Company's business operations, an assessment of the 
Company's management and the consideration of the above factors in relation 
to the market valuations of companies in similar businesses. The initial 
public offering price for the Common Stock should not be considered an 
indication of the actual value of the Common Stock offered hereby. In 
addition, there can be no assurance that the Common Stock can be resold at a 
price equal to or greater than the initial public offering price. See "Risk 
Factors--Absence of Public Market; Price Volatility." 

   The Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters and their controlling 
persons against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the 
Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required 
to make in respect thereof. 

                                LEGAL MATTERS 

   
   The validity of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby will be passed 
upon for the Company by Ruden, McClosky, Smith, Schuster & Russell, P.A., 
Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the 
Company by Locke Purnell Rain Harrell (A Professional Corporation), Dallas, 
Texas. Certain legal matters in connection with the Offering will be passed 
upon for the Underwriters by King & Spalding, Atlanta, Georgia. Locke Purnell 
Rain Harrell (A Professional Corporation) and King & Spalding will rely on 
Ruden, McClosky, Smith, Schuster & Russell, P.A. with respect to certain 
matters of Florida law.

Roadhouse Grill, Inc.: 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Roadhouse Grill, Inc. as of

standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,

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 audit provides a 
reasonable basis for our opinion. 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the financial position of Roadhouse Grill, Inc. as of

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

          JANUARY 2, 1994, JANUARY 1, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 
                          JUNE 30, 1996 (UNAUDITED) 

(1) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

(A) BUSINESS 

   Roadhouse Grill, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of 
the state of Florida in 1992. The principal business of the Company is the 
operation of specialty restaurants located primarily in the state of Florida. 
The Company has also granted franchises and licenses to operate restaurants 
under the "Roadhouse Grill" name. 

   At December 31, 1995, there were 18 company-owned restaurants open. There 
were two restaurants operating under franchise agreements and one restaurant 
operating under a license agreement. In addition, at December 31, 1995, the 
Company had a 50 percent interest in Kendall Roadhouse Grill, L.C., a limited 
liability company that owns the Kendall, Florida Roadhouse Grill restaurant 
("Kendall"). The Company manages the operations of the Kendall restaurant 
pursuant to an operating agreement. Under the operating agreement, the 
Company receives management fees and is allocated its share of the 
restaurant's profit and losses. The Company previously had a 50 percent 
interest in North Miami Roadhouse Grill, L.C., a limited liability company 
that owned the North Miami Roadhouse Grill restaurant ("North Miami"), under 
a similar arrangement. The remaining interest was acquired by the Company in 
the first quarter of 1995. 

(B) INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATE 

   The Company's 50 percent interest in Kendall is accounted for under the 
equity method. In addition, the Company's 50 percent interest in North Miami 
was accounted for under the equity method until the Company acquired a 100% 
interest in that restaurant, which occurred in the first quarter of 1995. 

(C) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT 

   Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. 
The cost of restaurants held under capital leases is recorded at the lower of 
the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the 
leased property at the inception of the lease. Repairs and maintenance are 
charged to expense as incurred. Major renewals and betterments which 
substantially extend the useful life of the property are capitalized and 
depreciated over the useful life of the asset. When assets are retired or 
otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from 
their respective accounts and any gain or loss is recognized. 

   Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the 
estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of capitalized lease 
assets is calculated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the 
estimated useful life of the leased asset or the lease term. 

(D) INTANGIBLES 

   Intangibles consist primarily of goodwill recorded as a result of a 
restaurant acquisition during 1995 (see Note 14) and is being amortized on a 
straight-line basis over the lease term of the respective restaurant 
property. The Company evaluates whether changes have occurred that would 
require

          JANUARY 2, 1994, JANUARY 1, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 
                          JUNE 30, 1996 (UNAUDITED) 

(1) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES--
    (CONTINUED)

revision of the remaining estimated useful life of the assigned goodwill or 
rendered goodwill not recoverable. If such circumstances arise, the Company 
uses undiscounted future cash flows to determine whether the goodwill is 
recoverable. In 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standard No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets to Be 
Disposed Of," (see Note 1m). 

(E) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS 

   The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity 
of three months or less to be cash equivalents. 

(F) INVENTORY 

   Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (based on first-in, first-out 
inventory costing) or net realizable value and consist primarily of 
restaurant food items, beverages and paper supplies. 

(G) INCOME TAXES 

   Prior to January 1994, the Company had elected to be treated as a S 
Corporation under the appropriate sections of the Internal Revenue Code and, 
accordingly, was not subject to federal and state income taxes. Instead, the 
Company's taxable income or loss and available credits were the 
responsibility of the Company's shareholders. 

   Effective January 1994, the Company terminated its S Corporation status 
and consequently, became subject to federal and state income taxes. Upon 
termination of the Company's S Corporation status, the Company adopted 
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, "Accounting for 
Income Taxes," which requires the utilization of the liability method of 
accounting for deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax 
assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between the 
financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using tax rates 
in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. 

(H) PRE-OPENING COSTS 

   Pre-opening costs are costs incurred in the opening of new stores 
(primarily payroll costs) which are capitalized prior to the opening of a new 
restaurant and amortized over a one-year period commencing with the first 
period after the new restaurant opens. 

   Deferred costs related to sites subsequently determined to be 
unsatisfactory, and general site selection costs which cannot be identified 
with a specific restaurant, are charged to operations. 

(I) FISCAL YEAR 

   The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest December 31. 

(J) 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 

                               F-10

          JANUARY 2, 1994, JANUARY 1, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND

    (CONTINUED)

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

(K) DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS 

   The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined 
based on available information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The 
carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued 
expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the accounts. 
The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on market rates of 
interest currently available to the Company. The fair value of long-term debt 
at December 31, 1995 is approximately $6,240,000. 

   The fair value of long-term debt approximates carrying value at January 1, 
1995. 

(L) REVENUE RECOGNITION 

   Total revenues include sales at Company-operated restaurants, royalties 
received from restaurants operating under franchise and license agreements, 
and fees earned under management agreements. 

(M) NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS 

   In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued 
Statement of Financial Accounting No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of 
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" (SFAS No. 
121), which becomes effective for financial statements for fiscal years 
beginning after December 15, 1995. The statement establishes accounting 
standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable 
intangible assets and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used, 
and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be 
disposed of. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 121 and as of January 1, 1996 
and June 30, 1996, there is no material impact to the financial position or 
results of operations of the Company. 

   In October 1995, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS No. 123), 
which becomes effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning 
after December 15, 1995. SFAS No. 123 defines a fair value based method of 
accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument and 
encourages all entities to adopt that method of accounting for all of their 
employee stock compensation plans. However, it also allows an entity to 
continue to measure compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic 
value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board 
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25). The 
Company is currently accounting for stock-based compensation under APB 25 and 
has opted to continue accounting for stock-based compensation under this 
method. 

(N) NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE AND PRO FORMA NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE 

   Net loss per common share for all periods is based on the weighted average 
number of common shares outstanding plus all common shares, stock options and 
warrants issued within one year prior to

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

          JANUARY 2, 1994, JANUARY 1, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 
                          JUNE 30, 1996 (UNAUDITED) 

(10) STOCK OPTION PLANS--(CONTINUED)

has recorded $39,600 in compensation expense. In 1996, the Company granted 
additional options to purchase 355,300 shares of common stock at a price of 
$3.60 per share. At December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996, deferred 
compensation expense amounted to $79,200 and $59,400, respectively, and is 
included in additional paid-in capital. 

   As discussed in note 9, the Board of Directors declared a one-for-three 
reverse stock split in October 1996. Concurrent with the reverse split, the 
number of shares issuable upon the exercise of each outstanding option will 
be adjusted for the one-for-three reverse split and the exercise price of 
each outstanding option will be adjusted such that the total amount paid upon 
exercise of the option in full will not change. 

(11) INCOME TAXES 

   The Company adopted SFAS No. 109, effective January 3, 1994, the date it 
converted from an S Corporation to a C corporation. The effect of adopting 
SFAS No. 109 was not significant. 

   As a result of the Company's net operating losses for fiscal years ended 
January 1, 1995 and December 31, 1995, there is no income tax payable. 

   The tax effects of the temporary differences comprising deferred tax 
assets and liabilities are as follows:

</TABLE>

   At January 1, 1995 and December 31, 1995, the Company had no deferred tax 
assets or liabilities reflected on its financial statements since the net 
deferred tax assets are completely offset by a valuation allowance. In 
assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers 
whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred 
tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax 
assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the 
periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management 
considers the level of historical income, scheduled reversal of deferred tax 
liabilities, and projected future taxable income in making this assessment.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

          JANUARY 2, 1994, JANUARY 1, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 
                          JUNE 30, 1996 (UNAUDITED) 

(11) INCOME TAXES--(CONTINUED)

   At December 31, 1995, the Company has a net operating loss carryforward of 
$5,945,000 consisting of $2,515,000 and $3,430,000 expiring in varying 
amounts through 2010 and 2011, respectively. 

(12) CONCENTRATIONS OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK 

   Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to 
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash in bank and 
investment custodian accounts. At times, the Company maintains cash balances 
in excess of insured limits. The custodian of the investment account is a 
major financial institution. 

   Approximately 82 percent of the restaurants currently owned and operated 
by the Company are located in the state of Florida. Consequently, the 
operations of the Company are affected by fluctuations in the Florida 
economy. Furthermore, the Company may be affected by changing conditions 
within the foodservice industry. 

(13) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES 

   The Company is a party to legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course 
of business, many of which are covered by insurance. In the opinion of 
management, disposition of these matters will not materially affect the 
Company's financial condition. 

   At June 30, 1996, the Company had 13 restaurants under development. The 
estimated cost to complete these restaurants and other capital projects in 
process was approximately $10,600,000 at June 30, 1996. 

(14) ACQUISITIONS 

   At January 1, 1995, the Company was a 50 percent owner in North Miami 
Roadhouse Grill, L.C. ("NMRG"), which owned the North Miami, Florida 
Roadhouse Grill restaurant. In January 1995, the Company acquired the 
remaining 50 percent interest in NMRG for $800,000. The purchase price was 
allocated principally to inventory and property and equipment based on the 
fair value of the assets acquired at the time of acquisition. In connection 
with the acquisition, the Company also assumed certain liabilities in the 
amount of $385,000. 

   During March 1995, the Company acquired two Roadhouse Grill restaurants 
from a franchisee for $2.2 million. The purchase price of the restaurants was 
allocated to property and equipment based on the estimated fair value of the 
assets at the date of acquisition. Approximately $1,555,000 was allocated to 
property and equipment as a result of the acquisition. The acquisition 
generated goodwill of approximately $645,000. 

   In August 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the 
remaining 50 percent interest in the Kendall Roadhouse Grill, L.C. from the 
joint venture partner for a purchase price of $2,300,000. If an initial 
public offering is not completed by the Company by December 31, 1996, either 
party may terminate the agreement without any further rights or obligations.

INSIDE BACK COVER

The inside back cover contains:

     1.   A map indicating the location of the Company-owned restaurants and 
          whether they are existing or under construction.

     2.   A letter from Cowboy Jim, the Company's spokesperson, that reads:

                                  HOWDY FOLKS!

          My name is COWBOY JIM and I'm gonna tell you a little story 'bout how
          the south was won...Won over to the finest steaks, chicken, burgers,
          ribs and seafood ever served up in these here parts. Of course, the
          Roadhouse Grill didn't just spring up overnight...it took a lot of 
          good friendly hardworking folks to make up the "house" we call home.

          "Southern hospitality with a smile, there's just no substitute!"
          That's what my grandaddy used to say.

          So, here at the Roadhouse Grill that's exactly what we believe and if
          you don't see it, hear it, and feel it, then jump up and say so!
          'Cause we pride ourselves on being different.

          Some of our neighbors near and far have tried to move in on our
          territory, but we both know there's nothing like coming home and
          there's nobody like the "original" Roadhouse Grill. A lot of folks
          think we're pretty special round here and you know what? We are 'cause
          you make us that way!

          So hitch up your family and head down the trail (just follow the
          peanut shells) 'cause we're settlin' in all over Florida...and the
          east coast too! 

          The Roadhouse Grill...it's an old fashioned steak house and good time
          saloon.  It's a simple saying with delicious tastes.  Built for
          steaks, good food and friendly folks!

          Enjoy your stay with us and we hope to see you again real soon!


                                        /s/ Cowboy Jim

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. 
    

   Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act permits, and, in 
certain cases, requires, a corporation to indemnify certain persons, 
including officers and directors and former officers and directors, and to 
purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of their capacity or 
status as officers and directors. Such law provides further that the 
indemnification permitted thereunder will not be deemed exclusive of any 
other rights to which officers and directors may be entitled under the 
corporation's articles of incorporation, bylaws, any agreement or otherwise. 
In addition, Section 607.0831 of the Florida Business Corporation Act 
presently limits the personal liability of a director for monetary damages, 
except where the director (i) breaches his or her fiduciary duties and (ii) 
such breach constitutes or includes certain unlawful distributions or certain 
other reckless, wanton or willful acts or misconduct. 

   
   Paragraph 10 of the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Article IX of 
the Company's Bylaws provide that the Company, to the fullest extent 
permitted by the Florida Business Corporation Act, shall indemnify any person 
made, or threatened to be made, a party to any action or suit because he or 
she was or is a director or officer of the Company or was serving at the 
request of the Company as a director or officer of another corporation. 
Paragraph 10 of the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Article IX of the 
Company's Bylaws, which will be filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, 
to this Registration Statement, will be incorporated herein by reference. 
    

   The Company intends to maintain liability insurance for the benefit of its 
directors and officers.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS. 

   The undersigned Company hereby undertakes to provide the representative of 
the Underwriters at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement 
certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required 
by the Underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser. 

   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities 
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons 
of the Company, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the 
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public 
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. 
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other 
than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, 
officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any 
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by any director, officer or 
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the 
Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been 
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate 
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against 
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the 
final adjudication of such issue. 

   The Company hereby undertakes that: 

   (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 
the information omitted from the form of Prospectus filed as part of this 
Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of 
prospectus filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) 
under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration 
Statement as of the time it was declared effective. 

   (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 
each post-effective amendment that contains a form of Prospectus shall be 
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered 
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to 
be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                 PROMISSORY NOTE


U.S. $1,500,000.00                                     Fort Lauderdale, Florida
                                                              September 5, 1996


         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Roadhouse Grill, Inc., a Florida
corporation, (hereinafter referred to as the "Maker"), promises to pay to the
order of John Y. Brown, Jr., (hereinafter referred to as the "Holder"), the
principal sum of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000.00),
together with interest thereon at the rate of five percent (5.00%) per annum
calculated on a daily basis from the date of the disbursement of the principal
up to the date of its full repayment. The principal amount and all accrued
interest shall be due and payable on the earlier of (i) the completion of the
initial public offering of securities or (ii) December 1, 1996.

         Maker may prepay the principal amount outstanding in whole or in part
at any time without penalty. All such prepayments shall be applied first to the
payment of all accrued but unpaid interest, and second to the outstanding
principal balance.

         Maker shall make all of its payments to Holder at such place as Holder
may designate to Maker.

         This Note shall be in default when any payment required to be made
hereunder shall not have been made on the due date. While in default, the
outstanding principal balance shall bear interest at the maximum rate permitted
by law. If Maker is in default by failing to make any payment of principal
and/or interest on its due date, and Maker fails to make such monthly payment
within ten (10) days after the date of Holder's mailing written notice of such
default to Maker or if Maker is otherwise in default as provided for herein,
then the entire outstanding principal balance, and all accrued but unpaid
interest thereon, shall immediately become due and payable at the option of the
Holder without notice to or demand upon Maker. Holder may exercise this option
to accelerate in accordance with the terms of this Note notwithstanding any
prior forbearance. If suit is brought to collect this Note, the Holder shall be
entitled to collect from Maker all costs and expenses of such suit, including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys fees through trial and appellate
levels.

         Maker and all endorsers and guarantors jointly and severally waive
presentment for payment demand, notice of nonpayment, protest, and notice of
protest, and consent to the terms hereof and to any extension or postponement of
the time for payment or any other indulgence and shall remain fully liable
hereunder in the event of any such extension, postponement or other indulgence.

         It is the intention of the Maker and the Holder that the interest
charged hereunder shall in no event ever exceed the maximum rate permitted by
law, and any interest or payments in the nature of interest which would render
this Note usurious shall, at the option of the Holder, be either refunded to the
Maker or credited against the outstanding principal balance.

         This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Florida.

         This Note is secured by a Security Agreement executed by Maker in favor
of Holder of dated July __, 1996. A default by Maker under any of the terms and
conditions of the Security Agreement shall constitute a default by Maker under
this Note.

U.S. $3,000,000.00                                     Fort Lauderdale, Florida
                                                             September 27, 1996


         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, Roadhouse Grill, Inc., a Florida
corporation, (hereinafter referred to as the "Maker"), promises to pay to the
order of Berjaya Group (Cayman) Limited, (hereinafter referred to as the
"Holder"), the principal sum of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00), together
with interest thereon at the rate of eight and one half percent (8.50%) per
annum calculated on a daily basis from the date of the disbursement of the
principal up to the date of its full repayment. Interest shall be payable at the
earlier of (i) when the principal amount is due and payable or (ii) every three
months with the first payment due November 1, 1996. The principal amount shall
be due and payable on the earlier of (i) the completion of the initial public
offering of Maker's securities or (ii) July 31, 1997.

         Maker may prepay the principal amount outstanding in whole or in part
at any time without penalty. All such prepayments shall be applied first to the
payment of all accrued but unpaid interest, and second to the outstanding
principal balance.

         Maker shall make all of its payments to Holder at such place as Holder
may designate to Maker.

         This Note shall be in default when any payment required to be made
hereunder shall not have been made on the due date. While in default, the
outstanding principal balance shall bear interest at the maximum rate permitted
by law. If Maker is in default by failing to make any payment of principal
and/or interest on its due date, and Maker fails to make such monthly payment
within ten (10) days after the date of Holder's mailing written notice of such
default to Maker or if Maker is otherwise in default as provided for herein,
then the entire outstanding principal balance, and all accrued but unpaid
interest thereon, shall immediately become due and payable at the option of the
Holder without notice to or demand upon Maker. Holder may exercise this option
to accelerate in accordance with the terms of this Note notwithstanding any
prior forbearance. If suit is brought to collect this Note, the Holder shall be
entitled to collect from Maker all costs and expenses of such suit, including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys fees through trial and appellate
levels.

         Maker and all endorsers and guarantors jointly and severally waive
presentment for payment demand, notice of nonpayment, protest, and notice of
protest, and consent to the terms hereof and to any extension or postponement of
the time for payment or any other indulgence and shall remain fully liable
hereunder in the event of any such extension, postponement or other indulgence.

         It is the intention of the Maker and the Holder that the interest
charged hereunder shall in no event ever exceed the maximum rate permitted by
law, and any interest or payments in the nature of interest which would render
this Note usurious shall, at the option of the Holder, be either refunded to the
Maker or credited against the outstanding principal balance.

         This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Florida.

     Notice to Cosigner:  You are being asked to guarantee this debt.  Think 
carefully before you do.  If the borrower doesn't pay the debt, you will have 
to.  Be sure you can afford to pay if you have to, and that you want to accept
this responsibility.
     You may have to pay up to the full amount of the debt if the borrower 
does not pay.  You may also have to pay late fees or collection costs, which 
increase this amount.
     The Bank can collect this debt from you without first trying to collect
from the borrower. The Bank can sue the same collection methods against you that
can be used against the borrower, such as suing you, garnishing your wages, etc.
If this debt is ever in default, that fact may become part of YOUR credit
record.
     This notice is not the contract that makes you liable for the debt.

Roadhouse Grill, Inc.

Gentlemen:

     This agreement (this "Agreement") set forth the terms pursuant to which
the undersigned (referred to as ("Purchaser") agrees to purchase 606,060 shares
(the "Shares") of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"),
of Roadhouse  Grill, Inc. (the ("Company") for $3.30 (U.S.) per share. The
purchase of the Shares shall close on or before October 27,1995. Purchaser
further sets forth statements upon which the Company or its affiliates may rely
to determine the suitability of the Purchaser to acquire the Shares.

     1.  PRIVATE OFFERING. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, Purchaser hereby tenders this subscription.

     2.  REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS OF PURCHASER. In connection
with Purchaser's investment or subscription, Purchaser hereby makes the
following representations, warranties, and agreements and confirms the following
understandings:

         (a) INVESTMENT PURPOSE. Purchaser is acquiring the Shares for its own
account and for investment purposes only and not with a view to, or for resale
in connection with, any distribution thereof.

         (b) REVIEW AND EVALUATION OF INFORMATION REGARDING THE COMPANY.
Purchaser and its representatives have received a copy of the Company's Articles
of Incorporation, as amended (the "Charter"), and Bylaws. Purchaser and its
representatives have received and reviewed the audited financial statements for
the year ended January 1, 1995, the unaudited financial statements for the
period ending September 10, 1995 as well as the projections of the Company for
the balance of 1995. Purchaser and its representatives have received monthly
income statements and balance sheets from the Company since April 1, 1994,
including the operating statements from the Company's individual restaurants.
Purchaser's representatives have attended or have had the opportunity to attend
all meetings of the Company's Board of Directors since April 1, 1994, and have
met for extended periods with the Company's officers and management.
Additionally, Purchaser has

<PAGE>

completed the purchase of either Common Stock or shares of the Company's
preferred stock on March 21, 1994, April 8, 1994, June 8, 1994, November 28,
1994 and May 26, 1995.

     Purchaser acknowledges that Purchaser has reviewed the above-referenced
documents. Purchaser further acknowledges that Purchaser has had the
opportunity to ask the Company's management questions about the Company's
business and financial condition and that Purchaser has obtained such
information as requested to the extent deemed necessary by Purchaser to permit
Purchaser to fully evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the
Company. Further, Purchaser has consulted with such other of its investment
and/or accounting and/or legal and/or tax advisors as Purchaser has deemed
necessary and appropriate in making the decision to acquire the Shares.

         (c) PURCHASER'S FINANCIAL EXPERIENCE. Purchaser is a sophisticated
investor and is sufficiently experienced in financial and business matters to be
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of Purchaser's investment in the
Company.

         (d) SUITABILITY OF INVESTMENT. Purchaser has evaluated the merits and
risks of Purchaser's proposed investment in the Company, including those risks
particular to Purchaser's situation, and has determined that this investment is
suitable for Purchaser. Purchaser had adequate financial resources for an
investment of this character, and at this time Purchaser could bear a complete
loss of its investment.

         (e) UNREGISTERED OFFERING. Purchaser understands that the Shares are
not being registered, on the basis that this issuance is exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as a "transaction by an issuer not
involving any public offering," and under such other exemptions as may be
available, and that reliance on such exemption is predicated, in part, on
Purchaser's representations and warranties contained in this Agreement.
Purchaser understands that no action has been taken by the Company which would
permit an offering of the Shares or the distribution of any material in relation
to the Company or the Shares in any country or jurisdiction where action for
that purpose is required by applicable law. Specifically, the Company has taken
no action to ensure compliance with the laws of Malaysia in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby.

         (f) LIMITATIONS ON DISPOSITION. The Shares have not been registered
under the Act or under applicable state securities laws and, therefore, cannot
be sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred unless they are subsequently
registered under the Act and under applicable state securities laws or an
exemption from such registration is then available. Purchaser hereby agrees that
Purchaser will not sell, assign, or transfer the Shares unless they are
registered under the Act and under applicable state securities laws or an
exemption from such registration is then available, according to an opinion
acceptable to the Company. Purchaser represents that Purchaser can afford to
hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time. Purchaser further represents
that, if requested by an underwriter of the Company's common voting stock,
Purchaser will agree not to sell or otherwise

                                       2

<PAGE>

dispose of the Shares for a period of up to 120 days after the effective date of
any registration statement covering the Company's common voting stock.

         (g) ABSENCE OF OFFICIAL EVALUATION. Purchaser understands that no
federal or state agency has made any findings or determination as to the
fairness of the terms of an investment in the Company, nor any recommendation
or endorsement of the Shares offered hereby.

         (h) RESIDENCE. Purchaser is a corporation organized under laws other
than those of the United States.

         (i) NON-RELIANCE. Purchaser is not relying on the Company, or its
affiliates, or any representation contained herein or in the documents referred
to herein with respect to the tax and economic effect of the investment in the
Company.

         (j) PROHIBITION ON CANCELLATION, TERMINATION, REVOCATION,
TRANSFERABILITY, AND ASSIGNMENT. Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that,
except as may be specifically provided herein or by applicable law, Purchaser is
not entitled to cancel, terminate, or revoke this Agreement, and this Agreement
shall survive any assignment of the Shares. Purchaser further agrees that
Purchaser may not transfer or assign the rights under this Agreement, and
understands that if the subscription is accepted, the assignment and
transferability of the Shares will be restricted.

         (k) INDEMNIFICATION OF THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES. Purchaser agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates against and in
respect of any and all loss, liability, claim, damage, deficiency and all
actions, suits, proceedings, demands, assessments, judgments, costs and expenses
whatsoever (including, but not limited to, and all expenses whatsoever,
including attorney's fee, reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing, or
defending against any litigation commenced or threatened or any claim
whatsoever through all appeals) arising out of or based upon any false
representation or warranty or breach or failure by Purchaser to comply with any
covenant or agreement made by Purchaser herein or in any other document
furnished by Purchaser in connection with its subscription.

         (l) AUTHORITY TO ENTER INTO AGREEMENT. The Purchaser has the full
right, power, and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and perform
its obligations hereunder.

         (m) OBLIGATION. This Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding
obligation of the Purchaser, and neither the execution of this Agreement, nor
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, will constitute a
violation of the laws of its jurisdiction or organizing documents.

         (n) APPROVALS REQUIRED. No approval, authorization, consent, order or
other action of, or filing with, any person, firm or corporation or any court,
administrative agency or other governmental authority is required in connection
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Purchaser or the
consummation of the transactions described herein.

corporate action and will not violate any provision of law, any order of any
court or other agency of government, the Charter of the Company, or the By-laws

or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of the properties or assets of

<PAGE>

         (e) TITLE TO PROPERTIES. The Company has good and marketable title to
the properties and assets reflected on the audited balance sheet at January 1,
1995 or acquired by it since the date of those balance sheets (other than
properties and assets disposed of in the ordinary course of business since the
date of those balance sheets), and all such properties and assets are free and
clear of mortgages, pledges, security interests, liens, charges, claims,

valid and subsisting agreement without any material default of the Company
thereunder and, to the best of the Company's knowledge, without any material
default thereunder of any other party thereto. No event has occurred and is

default or event of default by the Company under any such lease or agreement or,
to the best of the Company's knowledge, by any other party thereto. The
Company's possession of such property has not been disturbed and, to the best of

such returns as well as all other taxes, assessments and governmental charges
which have become due or payable, including without limitation all taxes which
the Company is obligated to withhold from amounts owing to employees, creditors
and third parties. All such taxes with respect to which the Company has become
obligated pursuant to elections made by the Company in accordance with generally
accepted practice have been paid and adequate reserves have been established for
all taxes accrued but not yet payable. The federal income tax returns of the
Company have never been and are not being audited by the Internal Revenue
Service. No deficiency assessment with respect to or proposed adjustment of the
Company's federal, state, county or local taxes is pending or, to the best of
the Company's knowledge, threatened. To the best of the Company's knowledge,
there is no tax lien, whether by any federal, state, county or local taxing
authority, outstanding against the assets, properties or business of the
Company.

         (h) GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS. Subject to the accuracy of the
representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth in Section 2(n), no
approval, authorization, consent, order or other action of, or filing with, any

<PAGE>

Agreement by the Company or the consummation of the transactions described
herein, except as disclosed herein.

     4.  REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Shares being acquired may be registered
pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement dated February 10,
1994 between the Company and the Purchaser. At the Closing, the Registration
Rights Agreement shall be amended to reflect this change.

     5.  RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. The Company shall, prior to (or as soon
thereafter as is reasonably practical) any issuance by the Company of any of its
securities (other than debt securities with no equity feature), offer to
Purchaser continuing to hold at least fifty percent (50%) of the Common Stock
purchased hereby (the "Eligible Purchaser") by written notice the right, for a
period of thirty (30) days, to purchase a pro rata amount (based on the
percentage ownership of the Common Stock of the Company assuming the conversion
of all Preferred Shares) of such securities on the same terms and conditions for
which such securities are to be issued (unless the Eligible Purchaser is unable
to meet such terms and conditions, in which case the Eligible Purchaser shall
purchase such securities for cash at an amount equal to the price or other
consideration for which such securities are to be issued); provided, however,
that the first refusal rights of the Eligible Purchasers pursuant to this
Section shall not apply to securities issued (A) upon conversion of any of the
Series A Preferred Shares or the Series B Preferred Shares, (B) upon exercise of
the Option held by J. David Toole, III to purchase 500,000 shares of Common
Stock, (C) as a stock dividend or upon any subdivision of shares of Common
Stock, provided that the securities issued pursuant to such stock dividend or
subdivision are limited to additional shares of Common Stock, (D) pursuant to
the Company's Option Plan, and (E) pursuant to a firm commitment underwritten
public offering. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to enable Purchaser to
purchase shares in the Company's initial public offering equal to Purchaser's
proportionate interest in the Company. The Company's written notice to the
Eligible Purchasers shall describe the securities proposed to be issued by the
Company and specify the number, price and payment terms.

     Each Eligible Purchaser may accept the Company's offer as to the full
number of securities offered to it or any lesser number, by written notice
thereof given by it to the Company prior to the expiration of the aforesaid
thirty (30) day period, in which event the Company shall promptly sell and such 
Eligible Purchaser shall buy, upon the terms specified, the number of securities
agreed to be purchased by such Eligible Purchaser.

         (b) The Company shall be free at any time prior to one hundred twenty
(120) days after the date of its notice of offer pursuant to this Section, to
offer and sell to any third party or parties the number of such securities not
agreed by the Purchasers or the Eligible Purchasers, as the case may be, to be
purchased by them, at a price and on payment terms no less favorable to the
Company than those specified in such notice of offer. However, if such third
party sale or sales are not consummated within such one hundred twenty (120) day
period, the Company shall not sell such

                                       6

<PAGE>

securities as shall not have been purchased within such period without again
complying with this Section.

         (c) In case the Company issues any of its securities at a price per
share (or at a price per share of Common Stock assuming their full conversion
into Common Stock, if applicable) less than the price per share paid by each
Eligible Purchaser hereunder, each Eligible Purchaser shall have a right of
over-allotment such that if any Eligible Purchaser fails to exercise such
Eligible Purchaser's right hereunder to purchase such Eligible Purchaser's full
proportionate share of the securities proposed to be issued (the "Incomplete
Purchasers"), the Purchasers purchasing their full respective proportionate
share of such securities (the "Complete Purchasers") may purchase the portion of
such securities which has not been purchased by the Incomplete Purchasers as
hereinafter provided. The Complete Purchasers shall have ten (10) days from the
date notice is given by the Company to the Complete Purchasers that such
Incomplete Purchasers have rejected or failed to accept their right to purchase
their proportionate share of securities, to agree to purchase up to such
Complete Purchaser's proportionate share of such securities not purchased by the
Incomplete Purchasers. Notwithstanding anything in Section 5(b) to the contrary,
