Item 3.           Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
                  --------------------------------------------------

         All shares of the Company's Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr.
Lambrinides were acquired with personal funds. Mr. Lambrinides acquired 77,333
shares of Common Stock on October 7, 1994 pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of
Merger (the "Merger Agreement") dated as of September 20, 1994 among the
Company, LCWSC Acquisition Corp. ("Acquisition"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company newly organized under the laws of the State of Ohio, LCW Skyline
Co., an Ohio corporation ("LCW"), Mr. Lambrinides and the other shareholders of
LCW (the "Shareholders"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Acquisition
completed a "reverse" merger (the "Merger") into LCW, with LCW surviving as a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Shareholders exchanged all of
the outstanding stock of LCW ("LCW Stock") for a total of


                                        3

<PAGE>   4



231,999 shares of Common Stock valued at approximately $725,000. Mr. Lambrinides
received one-third (1/3) of these shares of Common Stock in consideration for
his exchange of one-third (1/3) of the shares of LCW Stock. LCW operated a
Skyline Chili Restaurant in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Item 4.           Purpose of the Transaction.
                  ---------------------------

         Mr. Lambrinides is the Chairman, a director and more than ten percent
(10%) shareholder of the Company. All of the shares of the Company's Common
Stock beneficially owned by Mr. Lambrinides were acquired by him for investment
purposes. On November 26, 1997, the Company and certain of its shareholders,
including Mr. Lambrinides, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Merger Agreement") with Skyline Acquisition Corp., a new, private Ohio
corporation formed by certain members of the Company's management and Fleet
Venture Resources, Inc. and certain affiliated entities ("Fleet"), for purposes
of acquiring the Company. The acquisition would be accomplished by the reverse
merger of Skyline Acquisition Corp. into the Company, with the Company remaining
the surviving corporation (the "Transaction"). Skyline's President, Chief
Executive Officer, and Director, Mr. Kevin R. McDonnell, and other current
members of senior management (the "Management Group") plan to remain with the
Company and would be equity participants with Fleet in the Transaction. The
Company's other current shareholders and directors, including Mr. Lambrinides,
would have no equity, financial or other interest in the Company after
completion of the Transaction. The Company's shareholders, including Mr.
Lambrinides, would receive $6.75 per share in cash in connection with the
Transaction.

         In Section 5(m) of the Merger Agreement, Mr. Lambrinides and certain
other shareholders of the Company (who collectively own 55.8% of the outstanding
common stock), agreed to vote all of the shares of Company Common Stock over
which they have or exercise voting control and to take all other necessary or
desirable actions within their control, including without limitation, attendance
at shareholder meetings in person or by proxy for purposes of obtaining a
quorum, in favor of the Merger Agreement and the Transaction.

         If the Transaction is completed (i) all of the shares of the Company's
Common Stock, including the shares beneficially owned by Mr. Lambrinides, will
be converted into the cash merger consideration of $6.75 per share, (ii) Fleet
and the Management Group will obtain control of the Company, (iii) the Board of
Directors and officers Skyline Acquisition Corp will become the Board of
Directors and officers of the Company, and (iv) the Company's Common Stock will
be delisted from the American Stock Exchange and its registration under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 will be terminated.

         Completion of the Transaction remains subject to a number of
conditions, including the negotiation and execution of certain related
documentation, satisfactory completion of due diligence, regulatory and third
party approval, debt financing, and approval by the Company's shareholders.

         Except as described herein, Mr. Lambrinides has not formulated any
plans or proposals of the types referred to in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of
Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

                  Company's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (based
                  upon the Company having 3,397,773 shares of Common Stock
                  outstanding on such date), including 460,333 shares owned by
                  Mr. Lambrinides in his name alone, and 141,000 shares owned by
                  his spouse in her name alone. Nothing contained in this
                  Schedule 13D should be construed as an admission by Mr.
                  Lambrinides that he beneficially owns the shares owned by his
                  spouse.

         (b)      Mr. Lambrinides has sole voting and dispositive power with
                  respect to 460,333 shares of Common Stock owned in his name
                  alone, and shared voting and dispositive power with respect to
                  141,000 shares owned by his spouse in her name alone. See
