      (a)  It is anticipated that the Company will incur $550 million of 
           indebtedness under a Term Loan Facility in connection with the 
           Merger.

      (b)  The Company expects that a $100 million Revolving Credit Facility
           will be available for working capital and general corporate purposes.
           Approximately $5.1 million of the funds available under the Revolving
           Credit Facility will be drawn upon on the date of the Merger.

      (c)  The Company expects to issue debt securities (the "Debt Securities") 
           in either the public or private markets in connection with the 
           Merger.  While no decisions have been made regarding the terms of 
           any such Debt Securities, it is anticipated that a portion of such 
           Debt Securities will be issued at a substantial discount from their 
           face value. In such event, the face amount of the Debt Securities may
           be in excess of $350 million. This presentation is indicative 
           of the Company's best current estimate of the types of financing 
           which may be used in connection with the Merger.

             PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     The following unaudited pro forma consolidated condensed financial
statements (the "Pro Forma Financial Statements") have been derived by the
application of pro forma adjustments to the Company's historical financial
statements. The pro forma income statements for the periods presented give
effect to the Merger and related transactions as if such transactions were
consummated as of July 4, 1993 for the year ended July 2, 1994 and as of July
3, 1994 for the forty-week period ended April 8, 1995. The pro forma balance
sheet gives effect to the Merger and related transactions as if such
transactions had occurred as of April 8, 1995. The adjustments are described
in the accompanying notes. The Pro Forma Financial Statements should not be 
considered indicative of actual results that would have been achieved had the 
Merger and related transactions been consummated on the date or for the 
periods indicated and do not purport to indicate balance sheet data or 
results of operations as of any future date or for any future period. The Pro 
Forma Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 
historical financial statements contained in reports and other documents 
filed by the Company pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

     The pro forma adjustments were applied to the respective historical
financial statements to reflect and account for the Merger as a 
recapitalization. Accordingly, the historical basis of the Company's assets and
liabilities has not been impacted by the transaction.

                          CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET


         The pro forma financial data have been derived by the application of 
    pro forma adjustments to the Company's historical financial statements for 
    the period noted. The Merger has been accounted for as a recapitalization 
    which will have no impact on the historical basis of assets and liabilities.
    The pro forma financial data assumes that there are no dissenting 
    shareholders to the Merger.

    (a)  The net effect of $0.0 reflects the following:

    (c)  The pro forma adjustment to long term debt reflects the following:


                                                               (Millions)
                                                                --------

         Debt Securities .................................        350.0
                                                                -------
         Total adjustment ................................      $ 700.0
                                                                =======

         While no decisions have been made regarding the terms of the Debt 
         Securities, it is anticipated that a portion of the Debt Securities 
         will be issued at a substantial discount from their face value. In 
         such event, the face amount of the Debt Securities may be in excess 
         of $350 million. This presentation is indicative of the Company's
         best current estimate of the types of financing which may be used
         in connection with the Merger.

    (d)  The Company expects that a $100 million Revolving Credit Facility will
         be available for working capital and general corporate purposes. It
         is anticipated that $5.1 million will be drawn in connection with
         the Merger.

    (e)  The adjustment reflects the effect of the Merger on the 78.1 million 
         shares outstanding at $.01 par value per share. There will be 
         25,007,015 shares outstanding subsequent to the Merger.

    (f)  The adjustment reflects amounts distributed to convert to cash 73.3
         million shares of Bruno's Common Stock for total consideration of 
         $880.1 million, plus the $4.7 million impact of cancelled treasury 
         stock, net of the receipt of 20.8 million shares by Crimson 
         Associates, L.P. for total consideration of $250.0 million, and net 
         of the $0.5 million allocated to par value of the Bruno's Common 
         Stock as a result of the Merger. It is anticipated that all 73.3 
         million shares will be cancelled.

    (g)  The adjustment reflects the fees anticipated to be paid to effect the
         Merger. Such estimated fees and expenses are anticipated to consist of
         (i) fees and expenses related to certain borrowings in connection with 
         the Merger (the "Merger Financings"), including bank commitment fees 
         and underwriting discounts and commissions, (ii) fees and expenses in 
         connection with the prepayment of historical debt and an interest rate 
         swap, (iii) professional, advisory and investment banking fees and 
         expenses and (iv) miscellaneous fees and expenses, such as printing and
         filing fees.  Included in the $75.0 million of estimates fees and 
         expenses is the $15 million fee payable by the Company to KKR in the 
         event the Merger closes in accordance with the Merger Agreement.  It 
         is expected that the most substantial portion of the remaining 
         estimated fees and expenses will relate to the Merger Financings.

    (h)  The adjustment reflects the cancellation of the 0.6 million shares of
         treasury stock.

     -----------------

          The pro forma financial data have been derived by the application of 
     pro forma adjustments to the historical financial statements for the period
     noted. The Merger has been accounted for as a recapitalization which will
     have no impact on the historical basis of assets and liabilities. The pro 
     forma financial data assumes that there are no dissenting shareholders to 
     the Merger.

     (a)  The pro forma adjustment to interest expense reflects the following:

                                                                     (Millions)
                                                                      --------
          Interest expense on historical debt ............            $(18.9)
          Interest expense on the Term Loan Facility and
            Revolving Credit Facility
            (assumed 9.0% average rate) ..................              38.4
          Interest expense on the Debt Securities
            (assumed 10.75% average rate) ................              28.9
                                                                      ------

          Total adjustment ...............................            $ 48.4
                                                                      ======

               Because interest rates in connection with the Merger Financings
          have not been determined as of the date of this filing, this
          presentation is indicative of the Company's best current estimate
          of interest expense.

               A 0.125% increase or decrease in the assumed average interest
          rate on the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility would
          change the pro forma interest expense by $0.6 million.  The pro forma
          net income (loss) would change by $0.3 million and the pro forma
          primary earnings (loss) per share would change by $0.01.

               A 0.125% increase or decrease in the assumed average interest
          rate on the Debt Securities would change the pro forma interest
          expense by $0.4 million.  The pro forma net income (loss) would
          change by $0.2 million and the pro forma primary earnings (loss)
          per share would change by $0.01.

     (b)  The adjustment reverses historical income recognized on the Company's
          interest rate swap (assumed to be settled upon consummation of the
          Merger).

     (c)  The adjustment reflects the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments at
          a 38% effective rate.

     liabilities. The pro forma financial data assumes that there are no 
     dissenting shareholders to the Merger.

     (a)  The pro forma adjustment to interest expense reflects the following:


                                                                     (Millions)
                                                                      --------
           Interest expense on historical debt ............            $(18.5)
           Interest expense on the Term Loan Facility
              and Revolving Credit Facility
              (assumed 9.0% average rate) .................              50.0
           Interest expense on the Debt Securities
              (assumed 10.75% average rate) ...............              37.6
                                                                       ------

           Total adjustment ................................           $ 69.1
                                                                       ======

               Because interest rates in connection with the Merger Financings
          have not been determined as of the date of this filing, this
          presentation is indicative of the Company's best current estimate
          of interest expense.

               A 0.125% increase or decrease in the assumed average interest
          rate on the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility would
          change the pro forma interest expense by $0.7 million.  The pro forma
          net income (loss) would change by $0.4 million and the pro forma
          primary earnings (loss) per share would change by $0.02.

               A 0.125% increase or decrease in the assumed average interest
          rate on the Debt Securities would change the pro forma interest
          expense by $0.5 million.  The pro forma net income (loss) would
          change by $0.3 million and the pro forma primary earnings (loss)
          per share would change by $0.01.

     (b)  The adjustment reverses historical income recognized on the Company's
          interest rate swap (assumed to be settled upon consummation of the
          Merger).

     (c)  The adjustment reflects the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments at
          a 38% effective rate.  The historical effective tax rate of 41%
          includes the impact of a $2.2 million retroactive adjustment due
          to a change in federal tax rates.
