Item 1. Security and Issuer
No change.
Item 2. Identity and Background
This statement is being filed on behalf of Timothy R.
Barakett and Atticus Management, Ltd. (the "Manager")
and Atticus International, Ltd. (the "Fund" and,
together with Mr. Barakett and the Manager, sometimes
referred to as the "Reporting Persons"), each of which
is a British Virgin Islands international business
company. Mr. Barakett is the Managing Member of Atticus
Holdings, L.L.C. ("Holdings"), a Delaware limited
liability company that serves as the General Partner of
Atticus Partners, L.P. ("Atticus Partners") and Atticus
Qualified Partners, L.P. (together with Atticus

As of the date hereof, Mr. Barakett is deemed to
beneficially own 1,908,506 Shares and the Manager and

for the purchase of the Shares held in the Partnerships,
the Fund or the managed accounts have come from the
working capital of the Partnerships, the Fund or the

includes the proceeds of margin loans entered into in
the ordinary course of business with Bear, Stearns &
Co., Inc., such loans being secured by the securities
owned by them.
Item 4. Purpose of Transactions
On September 18, 1998, Atticus Partners sent to the
Issuer a notice of its intent to nominate persons for
election to the Board of Directors of the Issuer and to

attached as Exhibit C and is incorporated herein by
reference.
Mr. Barakett, on behalf of the above mentioned entities,
reserves the right to purchase additional Shares or to
dispose of the Shares in the open market, in privately
negotiated transactions or in any other lawful manner in
the future and to take whatever action with respect to
each of such entities' holdings of the Shares he deems
to be in the best interests of such entities.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of Issuer
Based on the Issuer's most recent filing on Form 10-Q,
as of May 11, 1998 there were 11,585,230 Shares
outstanding. Therefore, Mr. Barakett may be deemed to
beneficially own 16.47% of the outstanding Shares and
the Manager and the Fund each may be deemed to own 7.08%
9
<PAGE>
of the outstanding Shares. None of the Partnerships or
any of the managed accounts by itself owns greater than
5% of the outstanding Shares. The Reporting Persons
have the power to vote, direct the vote, dispose of or
direct the disposition of all the Shares that they are
deemed to beneficially own. All transactions in the
Shares effected by Mr. Barakett in the sixty days prior
to September 1, 1998 were effected in open-market
transactions and are set forth in Exhibit B hereto.
Neither the Manager nor the Fund effected any
transactions in the Shares in the sixty days prior to

On September 18, 1998, Atticus Capital, L.L.C., an

Danvers, MA 01923
Attn: Secretary
Re: Notification of Stockholder's Intent to Nominate
Persons for Election to the Board of Directors
and to Propose Business to be Brought before
the 1998 Annual Meeting
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Article I, Section 2 and Article II, Section
3 of the Amended and Restated By-Laws (the "By-Laws") of Unique
Casual Restaurants, Inc. (the "Corporation"), Atticus Partners,
L.P. (the "Stockholder") hereby notifies the Corporation of the
Stockholder's intent at the Corporation's 1998 Annual Meeting
(the "Annual Meeting") (i) to nominate persons for election to
the Corporation's Board of Directors (the "Board") and (ii) to
propose that the stockholders of the Corporation adopt a
resolution as set forth below. This letter supersedes the letter
to the Corporation from the Stockholder dated September 18, 1998
and mailed on September 19, 1998.
Set forth below is the information required to be in the
Stockholder's notice to the Secretary of the Corporation in
accordance with Article I, Section 2 and Article II, Section 3 of
the By-Laws.
Proposal 1. If the Corporation nominates three persons
for election to the Board, then the Stockholder intends to
nominate the following three persons (the "Designees") for
election to the Board:
Timothy R. Barakett
James S. Goodwin
Nathaniel Rothschild
1
<PAGE>
If the Corporation nominates two persons for election to
the Board, then the Stockholder intends to nominate the following
two persons for election to the Board:
Timothy R. Barakett
James S. Goodwin
The information required under Article II, Section 3
with respect to each Designee is set forth on Exhibit A hereto.
The consent of each Designee to serve as a director of the
Corporation if elected is attached hereto as Exhibit B.
Atticus Capital, L.L.C., an affiliate of the Stockholder
("Atticus Capital"), has entered into an agreement with each of
the Designees (each, a "New Director Agreement"), which provides
that, if such Designee is elected as a director of the
Corporation, Atticus Capital would expect that such Designee
would receive from the Corporation the same compensation as is
currently paid to the Corporation's non-employee directors, which
Atticus Capital understands to be a quarterly retainer of $3,000
and a fee of $1,000 per meeting attended, plus travel expenses.
Pursuant to the New Director Agreements, Atticus Capital will pay
Mr. Goodwin an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the proceeds
above $4.875 per share realized upon the sale or other
disposition of shares of common stock, par value $0.01, of the
Corporation ("Common Stock") beneficially owned by the
Stockholder, Atticus Qualified Partners, L.P. and Atticus
International, Ltd. Messrs. Barakett and Rothschild are members
of Atticus Capital and will receive no additional compensation
for acting as Designees. In addition, the Stockholder has agreed
to indemnify each Designee against any and all losses, claims,
damages, judgments, liabilities and expenses of any kind that may
be incurred by such Designee arising out of or relating to his
service as a director designee for election to the Board. In the
case of any proceeding relating to any such claim, the
Stockholder will assume and control the defense thereof and will
pay attorneys' fees and expenses in connection therewith. Copies
of the New Director Agreements are attached hereto as Exhibit C.
Other than as disclosed in this letter and in Exhibit C
attached hereto, there are no arrangements or understandings
between the Stockholder and the Designees and any other persons
pursuant to which the nominations of the Designees are to be made
by the Stockholder.
Proposal 2. The Stockholder intends to propose that the
stockholders of the Corporation adopt a resolution requesting
that the Board pursue a sale of the Corporation with a view to
enhancing stockholder value.
2
<PAGE>
The Stockholder is encouraged by the Corporation's
recent actions involving the sale of its Fuddruckers, Inc.
subsidiary and believes that the Corporation has taken the first
step towards unlocking the hidden value of the Corporation for
its stockholders. The Stockholder is interested in working with
management to keep the Corporation on the path towards maximizing
stockholder value. The Stockholder makes Proposal 2 because it
believes that the action described therein will allow the
Corporation to realize greater value for the stockholders of the
Corporation than is likely to be realized by the continuation of
the Corporation as an independent public company.
The name and address, as they appear on the
Corporation's stock transfer books, of the Stockholder proposing
such business is as follows:
Name: Atticus Partners, L.P.
Address: 590 Madison Avenue
32nd Floor
New York, New York 10022
The class and number of shares of the Corporation's
capital stock that are held of record by the Stockholder is 10
shares of Common Stock. The class and number of shares of the
Corporation's capital stock which are beneficially owned by the
Stockholder is 276,906 shares of Common Stock. The Stockholder
does not represent by proxy any other shares of the Corporation's
capital stock.
The names and addresses of the beneficial owners of the
capital stock of the Corporation registered in the Stockholder's
name on the books of the Corporation, and the class and number of
shares of the Corporation's capital stock beneficially owned by
such beneficial owners, are listed on Exhibit D hereto.
Mr. Barakett is the Managing Member of Atticus Holdings,
L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company that serves as the
general partner of the Stockholder and Atticus Qualified
Partners, L.P., which beneficially own 276,906 and 479,950 shares
of Common Stock, respectively. Mr. Barakett is also the
President of Atticus Management, Ltd., an international business
company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands
that serves as the manager of Atticus International, Ltd., which
beneficially owns 820,200 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Barakett
is also the Managing Member of Atticus Capital, which has
investment discretion with respect to certain managed accounts
(the "Managed Accounts"), which collectively beneficially own
331,450 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Barakett is therefore deemed
to be the beneficial owner of 1,908 506 shares of Common Stock,
which include all shares of Common Stock owned by the
3
<PAGE>
Stockholder, Atticus Qualified Partners, L.P., Atticus
International, Ltd. and the Managed Accounts. Mr. Barakett does
not hold any shares of Common Stock of record and does not
represent any other shares of Common Stock by proxy. His address
is c/o Atticus Capital, L.L.C., 590 Madison Avenue, 32nd Floor,
New York, New York 10022. Other than as set forth herein, there
are no other stockholders known by the Stockholder to support
Proposal 1 and Proposal 2 (collectively, the "Stockholder
Proposals").
Neither the Stockholder nor any other stockholder known
to be supporting the Stockholder Proposals has any material
interest in the Stockholder Proposals other than as a stockholder
of the Corporation that is interested in maximizing stockholder
value of the Corporation through its stock ownership.
The Stockholder represents that it is a stockholder of
record of the Corporation entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting,
which the Stockholder anticipates will be held on or about
December 9, 1998, and that the Stockholder intends to appear in
person or by a representative at the Annual Meeting to nominate
the Designees as set forth in Proposal 1 and to make Proposal 2.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, the Stockholder reserves the right, in its sole
discretion, to modify or amend any or both of the Stockholder
Proposals, to decline to propose any or both of the Stockholder
Proposals and to propose additional matters.
Very truly yours,
ATTICUS PARTNERS, L.P.

Dear Mr. Goodwin:

nominated and to serve if elected.
In consideration of the time and effort involved in your serving
as a director designee of Atticus Partners, Atticus Capital
agrees to pay you a sum equal to five percent (5%) of the
proceeds above $4.875 per share realized upon the sale or other

In addition, Atticus Partners hereby agrees to indemnify you
against any and all losses, claims, damages, judgments,

proceeding relating to any such claim, Atticus Partners will
assume and control the defense thereof and shall pay attorneys?
fees and expenses in connection therewith.
The indemnification herein will be in addition to your rights to
