                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

1.       CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         The accompanying financial statements do not include all of the
         information and footnotes necessary for the annual presentation of
         financial position, results of operation and cash flows in conforming
         with generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of the
         company, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
         adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position,
         results of operations and changes in cash flow at February 29, 1996
         and February 28, 1995 and for all periods presented have been made.

         Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
         financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
         accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These
         consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
         the financial statements and notes thereto as of November 30, 1995
         and the Form 10-KSB as of November 30, 1995.

2.       ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES

         The Company has acquired net operating loss carry forwards relating
         to the SYF merger of approximately $1,250,000 which are available to
         offset future taxable income. However, to the extent such loss carry
         forwards are utilized to reduce future operating income, the related
         tax benefit will first be credited to goodwill until fully eliminated
         and then to income. Utilization of these losses is limited based on
         the taxable income generated by the activity that generated these
         losses and expire beginning in 1999.

         The Company also has net operating loss carry forwards for tax
         purposes of approximately $637,616 relating to losses incurred
         subsequent to the SYF acquisition which expires beginning in 2006.

3.       INVESTMENTS

         Effective December 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of
         Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
         Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Accordingly, the Company
         has classified its marketable debt securities into held-to-maturity
         and available-for-sale categories. Securities classified as held-to-
         maturity are reported at amortized cost and available-for-sale are
         reported at fair market value with unrealized gains or losses
         incurred in stockholders' equity. At February 29, 1996, there were no
         unrealized gains or losses reported as cost approximated fair value.

6.       SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         In December, 1995, the Company offered to purchase the Tubby's Sub
         Shop restaurant equipment of a bankrupted franchisee for $120,000
         comprised of a cash payment of $50,000 and accounts receivable owed
         the Company of $70,000. The purchase price of $120,000 was determined
         based upon historical valuation methods used with other outside
         franchisees. Additionally, the Company offered to purchase the
         building and land where this restaurant is located from its owner for
         $165,000.

         As of February 29, 1996, the Company had paid initial deposits of
         $14,000 to the bankruptcy trustee and the owner of the building and
         land where the restaurant is located. In April, 1996, the Company
         began renovations of the restaurant and anticipates its grand
         re-opening in May, 1996. The Company believes it has sufficient
         liquidity to acquire the restaurant, and the building and land. Both
         offers have been accepted by the parties involved. Final closings are
         anticipated in April, 1996.

7.       LITIGATION

A.       Tubby's, Inc. v Alexander P. Bardy. On or about January 6, 1995, the
         Company initiated a civil action in the Circuit Court for the County
         of Macomb against Alexander P. Bardy, its former President & CEO. The
         Complaint seeks reimbursement from the Defendant for unauthorized
         expenses and expenditures, money damages as a result of the
         Defendant's usurpation of corporate opportunities, fraudulent
         misrepresentations, breach of contract and negligence, and sought a
         declaratory judgment regarding the type of stock available to the
         Defendant pursuant to his Stock Option Agreement. The Defendant
         denied any liability to the Company and filed a
         "Counter-Complaint/Third-Party Complaint" alleging breach of the
         Stock Option Agreement against the Company and the following Officers
         and/or Directors: Vincent J. Tatone, Robert M. Paganes, P. Terrance
         Paganes, and J. Thomas Paganes. Thereafter, the Third-Party
         Defendants moved to be dismissed from the
         "Counter-Complaint/Third-Party Complaint", which the Court granted in
         part and denied in part, without prejudice. The Court dismissed all
         claims against the individuals for breach of contract but did not
         dismiss other possible claims asserted for the reason that discovery
         had not been completed. On October 30, 1995, the Court granted the
         Company's Motion for Entry of a Declaratory Judgment regarding the
         type of stock available to the Defendant under his stock option
         agreement, ordered that Defendant would have 30 days in which to
         exercise his options and dismissed the Defendant's request for
         injunctive relief. The Defendant did not exercise those options
         within the 30 day period. In January of 1996, the Third-Party
         Defendants renewed their Motion to Dismiss. On February 6, 1996, the
         Court treated this Motion as a Motion for Reconsideration and granted
         the Motion, which dismissed all claims by Mr. Bardy which were
         asserted in the Third-Party Complaint and precludes the re-litigation
         of those claims in any other action. The parties agreed to resolve
         this action through binding arbitration and an arbitrator was

                                      -9-


<PAGE>



         appointed by the Court. The arbitration proceeding is scheduled to
         occur in June, 1996. The Company intends to vigorously pursue and
         defend the matter and estimates the possibility of an unfavorable
         outcome to be remote.

B.       Patrick J. McCourt, the Patrick J. McCourt Trust, and McCourt
         Corporation, a Michigan corporation v Tubby's, Inc., a New Jersey
         corporation, the McTub Company, a Michigan partnership, Robert M.
         Paganes, P. Terrance Paganes, J. Thomas Paganes, and Vincent J.
         Tatone. On August 17, 1995, a civil action was commenced in the
         United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan by
         the above named Plaintiffs. Patrick J. McCourt, as Trustee of the
         Patrick J. McCourt Trust and as President of McCourt Corporation,
         purchased restricted shares of Tubby's Common Stock pursuant to
         private placements in June, July and November of 1993 and formed the
         McTub Company, a general partnership with Tubby's in August of 1993
         for the purpose of owning and operating certain quick- service
         restaurants. Plaintiffs' Complaint seeks recision of those
         transactions and, in connection therewith, alleged violation of
         Federal Securities regulations, fraudulent misrepresentation,
         violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act,
         dissolution of partnership and accounting, violation of Michigan
         Securities Act, and Michigan's Franchise Investment Law. Plaintiffs
         purchased a total of 1.5 million shares at 25(cent)per share for a
         total purchase price of $375,000 and Plaintiffs' total investment in
         the McTub Company was approximately $400,000. The Company filed an
         Answer in which it denied liability to Plaintiffs. In addition, the
         Company filed a Cross-Claim against the McTub Company seeking a
         declaratory judgment that the Company is entitled to a distribution
         in the amount of $105,000.00 prior to any other distributions that
         may be made by that Company, and filed a Third-Party Complaint
         against Alexander P. Bardy, the Company's former President and Chief
         Executive Officer, and Kevin J. Sullivan, the Company's former Chief
         Financial Officer. In the Third-Party Complaint, the Company denies
         any liability to Plaintiffs but asserts, alternatively, in the event
         that it is determined to be liable to Plaintiffs for any amount of
         money damages, Third-Party Defendants would be liable to the Company
         for all such damages, plus any additional damages sustained by the
         Company in connection with the Complaint. Thereafter, the Company and
         Mr. Sullivan stipulated to dismissing Mr. Sullivan as a Third-Party
         Defendant pursuant to a Settlement Agreement in which the parties
         agreed to preserve, under certain circumstances, all claims that each
         party could assert. The Company intends to zealously defend against
         the claims asserted in the Complaint and to zealously prosecute its
         Cross- Claim and Third-Party Complaint. The Company is unable at this
         time to estimate the probability of a successful conclusion to the
         litigation or to estimate the possible loss to the Company if it is
         not successful.

C.       Alexander P. Bardy v J. Thomas Paganes, P. Terrance Paganes, Robert
         M. Paganes, and Vincent J. Tatone. On or about January 17, 1996,
         after the Court in Tubby's, Inc. v Alexander P. Bardy described above
         in item A, denied Mr. Bardy's Motion to Amend his
         "Counter-Complaint/Third-Party Complaint", Mr. Bardy filed a

                                     -10-


<PAGE>



         separate action in the Circuit Court for the County of Macomb against
         the above named Defendants. This Complaint re-alleges the same claims
         asserted by Mr. Bardy in the previously pending action but adds two
         additional counts: tortious interference with Mr. Bardy's Stock
         Option Agreement and defamation against Defendant Tatone. On February
         6, 1996, when the Court granted the Motion to Dismiss in the
         previously pending action, the Court also ruled that Mr. Bardy would
         be precluded from re-litigating any of his claims that were dismissed
         in that case. The Defendants in this case are being indemnified by
         the Company because this matter arises out of their employment with
         the Company. This matter has been consolidated with the action
         described in Item A and will also be resolved through the arbitration
         proceeding scheduled to occur in June, 1996.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
         AND RESULTS OF OPERATION.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached
condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and with the
Company's Form 10-KSB and audited financial statements and notes thereto for
the fiscal year-ended November 30, 1995.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Cash and Equivalents, Certificates of Deposit, and Investments decreased by
$77,469 for the three months ended February 29,1996 as compared with an
increase of $452,107 for the three months ended February 28, 1995. The current
period decrease in the Company's cash position resulted, in part, from the
costs related to new restaurant construction, the pre-payment of future
franchise development expenses, the purchase of new equipment, and the
reduction of vendor payables. The increase in cash position of the prior year
resulted from the cash sale of a Company-owned restaurant, the private
placement of restricted stock, and the significant cost cutting measures
enacted at that time.

The Company closed its last unprofitable Tubby's Express restaurant in
December, 1995, and anticipates the sale of its remaining profitable Tubby's
Express restaurants during 1996, (see Note #5, Assets Held for Disposal).
Though, the closing of the unprofitable restaurant will reduce food sales, the
losses associated with this restaurant will be eliminated. The sale of the
profitable restaurant will better allow the Company to focus on developing new
Tubby's or Stuff-Yer-Face franchisees and the opening of new Tubby's Sub
Shops.

The sale of a company store and the opening of a new franchised restaurant
resulted in the recognition of initial franchise fees as well as continuing
monthly franchise and advertising fees. The opening of six additional new
locations, one of which will be Company owned, is anticipated by the end of
the third quarter at August 31, 1996 and will similarly result in the
recognition of initial franchise fees and continuing monthly franchise and
advertising fees. The Company believes that with a profitable first quarter
and the anticipated openings of six restaurants in the second and third
quarters it is well poised to achieve its second consecutive profitable year.

Results of operations for the three months ended February 28, 1996 as compared
with the three months ended February 28, 1995.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Revenues for the three months ended February 28, 1995, decreased by 26.4% to
$624,795. This decrease was largely attributable to a $181,976 or 47.3%
decline in Food Sales. The decline in Food Sales primarily resulted from the
1995 closing or sale of four unprofitable Tubby's Express restaurants and the
1996 closing of an additional Tubby's Express

                                     -12-

restaurant. Revenues that resulted from these restaurants for the three months
ending February 28, 1995, totaled $192,444, and for the restaurant that closed
in 1996 revenues totaled $21,236.

Monthly Franchise Fees remained constant though Initial Franchise Fees
declined by $8,750 or 38%. Of the two new franchised restaurants that opened
in 1996, one franchise generated a transfer fee of $6,250 while the second
franchise generated an Area Development Agreement fee of $8,000. Of the two
new franchised restaurants that opened in 1995, one franchise generated a
initial franchise fee of $15,000 while the second transfer generated an Area
Development Agreement fee $8,000.

Equipment & Restaurant Sales increased by $2,914 or 5.6% in 1996. Advertising
Fees increased by $8,600 or 7.2 % in 1996. Commissions & Other Fees decreased
by $44,415 or 36.9%. This decline resulted primarily from timing differences
in the recognition of vendor rebates. It is anticipated that this revenue
decline will be recovered over the remaining nine months of 1996.

Operating Expenses decreased by $57,186 in 1996 though as a percentage of
Total Revenues the category increased to 72.9% in 1996 from 60.4% in 1995.
This proportionate increase in Operating Expenses reflects the fixed nature of
certain ongoing expenses. Cost of Food Sales as a percentage of Food Sales
declined from 71.6% in 1995 to 70.5% in 1996. Cost of Equipment sales decline
as a percentage of Equipment & Restaurant Sales from 86.1% in 1995 to 81.1% in
1996 reflecting increased gross profit margins associated with volume
purchasing.

Interest Expense decreased by $3,609 or 32.8% from 1995 to 1996 reflecting the
continued reduction of long term debt, lower interest rates, and management's
determination to strengthen the Company's financial position by not incurring
unnecessary new debt.

The $110,930 Gain On Sale Of Fixed Assets in 1995 resulted from the sale of a
Company owned restaurant with a depreciated basis of $24,070. In 1996, the
$11,105 Gain On Sale Of Fixed Assets resulted from a $14,346 gain on the sale
of a Company owned restaurant that was acquired in April, 1995, and an
additional loss of $3,241 resulting from the closure of a Company owned
Tubby's Express restaurant in December, 1995, (see Note 5 of the Consolidated
Financial Statements).

Interest Income increased in 1996 by $6,791 or 36% as a result of the
investment earnings derived from idle funds invested for the full three month
period in 1996 rather then a shorter period in 1995. The 1996 increase in
Miscellaneous of 53% resulted primarily from increased rent receipts.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and Equivalents, Certificates of Deposit, and Investments declined by
$77,469 in the three months ending February 29, 1996. The declined was
attributable to several factors; the

                                     -13-


<PAGE>



most significant being construction in progress of a new Tubby's Sub Shop. At
February 29, 1996, the Company had spent $66,700 of the approximately $82,000
the restaurant was estimated to cost. The restaurant is expected to be
operated by the Company until it is sold to a franchisee. Other factors
significantly effecting the decline in liquidity are a $15,779 increase in
Accounts Receivable, a $46,167 decrease in Accrued Liabilities and Accounts
Payable, the purchase of $9,732 of Property & Equipment, and Net Proceeds From
Sale of Property & Equipment of $32,250.

In addition to one new franchised restaurant opened and one company owned
restaurant sold in the first quarter of 1996, six new Tubby's Sub Shops are
expected to open by the end of the third quarter of August 31, 1996. Of these
six new Tubby's Sub Shops scheduled to be opened by August 31, 1996, five
restaurants are expected to be operated by franchisees. It is expected that
the one remaining restaurant referred to above will be also sold to a
franchisee.

In December, 1995, the Company initiated a $250,000 revolving line of credit
with a local financial institution. This line of credit can be drawn upon as
needed to meet future cash requirements. As of April 8, 1996, the entire line
of credit was available to the Company.

The Company is responsible for supervising construction and equipment
installation for some new locations. As part of that process, the Company will
contract for the purchase of equipment and execute construction contracts.
Although the Company is reimbursed entirely for its costs, it often must
prepay some costs. As of April 8, 1996, the Company has three new locations
scheduled to open by May 31, 1996. The Company is responsible for the
construction and equipment installation two of these locations, one of which
will be a Company owned restaurant. The estimated costs that will be incurred
to open the Company owned restaurant is anticipated to be $82,000. Though, the
Company anticipates that this location will eventually be sold to a
franchisee, the Company believes it has sufficient working capital to
internally finance this project.

In December, 1995, in addition to the above mention restaurants, the Company
offered to purchase the Tubby's Sub Shop restaurant equipment of a bankrupted
franchisee for $120,000 comprised of a cash payment of $50,000 and accounts
receivable owed the Company of $70,000. The purchase price of $120,000 was
determined based upon historical valuation methods used with other outside
franchisees. Additionally, the Company offered to purchase the building and
land where this restaurant is located from its owner for $165,000. As of
February 29, 1996, the Company had paid initial deposits of $14,000 to the
bankruptcy trustee and the owner of the building and land where the restaurant
is located. In April, 1996, the Company began renovations of the restaurant
and anticipates its grand reopening in May, 1996. The Company believes it has
sufficient liquidity to acquire the restaurant, and the building and land.
Both offers have been accepted by the parties involved. Final closings are
anticipated in April, 1996. The Company anticipated that it will initially
open this restaurant as a Company owned restaurant.
