Item 1.   Changes in Control of Registrant.

        On November 20, 1995, Apollo FRI Partners, L.P. ("Apollo") entered into
an Exchange Agreement with each of Foodmaker, Inc., a Delaware corporation 
("Foodmaker"), and Green Equity Investors, L.P. ("Green"), pursuant to
which, among other things, (i) on December 20, 1995 Foodmaker transferred all
of the shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"), and a warrant to purchase additional shares of Common Stock,
owned by it to Apollo, (ii) on November 20, 1995 Green transferred 19,609
shares of the Company's Common Stock held by it to Apollo and (iii) the
Shareholders' Agreement, dated as of January 27, 1994, by and among Apollo,
Green and Foodmaker was terminated, as between themselves and the Company. In
connection with the foregoing, Jack W. Goodall, Jr., Charles W. Duddles and
Edward Gibbons, the three members of the Company's Board of Directors (the
"Board") appointed by Foodmaker, and Leonard I. Green and Jonathan D. Sokoloff,
the two members of the Board appointed by Green, resigned from the Board and
from each other position held with the Company or its subsidiaries. The
foregoing transactions were consummated after the lenders under the Company's
Revolving Credit Agreement, in connection with their consent to an amendment
thereto, required certain of the Company's shareholders to purchase a
participation in certain loans under such agreement. Apollo agreed to purchase
such participation and, in consideration therefor, Foodmaker and Green agreed
to transfer the shares of Common Stock as set forth above.

        Prior to the consummation of the foregoing transactions, Apollo, Green
and Foodmaker, the Company's three largest shareholders, held approximately
39%, 18% and 39%, respectively, of the Company's Common Stock and, pursuant to
the terms of the Shareholders' Agreement, controlled the Company. Upon
consummation of the foregoing transactions, Apollo, Green and Foodmaker own
approximately 81%, 16% and 0% of the Common Stock, respectively.  Consequently,
Apollo, through its ownership of the Common Stock, controls the Company.

                           REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT


                 THIS FIFTH AMENDMENT TO THE REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT (the
"Fifth Amendment") is made as of October 31, 1995, among FRI-M Corporation, a

1994, as amended by the First Amendment to the Revolving Credit Agreement,

Agreement, dated as of August 15, 1994, by the Third Amendment to the Revolving
Credit Agreement, dated as of March 24, 1995, and by the Fourth Amendment to
the Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of August 1, 1995 (the "Credit

                 WHEREAS, Schedule A to this Fifth Amendment sets forth the
aggregate amount of all outstanding Loans (including the Dividend Loan), Swing
Line Advances and Syndicated Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement as of
November 7, 1995;

                 WHEREAS, as of October 31, 1995, the Borrower is in default
under the Credit Agreement as a result of its failure to comply with certain of
the financial covenants contained therein and anticipates that it may continue
to be in default for the fiscal quarter ending December 1995 under Section 9.01
of the Credit Agreement, and as a result thereof, the Banks have no further
obligations to make Loans or participate in Swing Line Advances or Syndicated
Letters of Credit;

                 WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Banks waive all
such existing and anticipated financial covenant Defaults and Events of Default
under the Credit Agreement through January 31, 1996 in order that it may make
additional borrowings under the Credit Agreement up to specified amounts
through January 31, 1996;
<PAGE>   2

                 WHEREAS, Section 2.07(g) of the Credit Agreement provides that
no Bank will be obligated to extend any Loans or participate in any Swing Line
Advances or Syndicated Letters of Credit so long as the total outstandings
under the Credit Agreement (exclusive of the Dividend Loan) exceed $125,100,000
on any day from August 26, 1995 to October 31, 1995 and that after October 31,
1995, no Bank will be obligated to extend any Loans or participate in any Swing
Line Advances or Syndicated Letters of Credit;

                 WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested an additional borrowing
facility, including through the issuance of Syndicated Letters of Credit, in an
aggregate amount of up to $8,000,000 and certain of the Banks are willing to
provide such facility and the remaining Banks are willing to permit additional
Loans to be made and Syndicated Letters of Credit to be issued by such Banks,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

                 WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend the Credit
Agreement as set forth herein.

                 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the
covenants and agreements contained herein and in the Credit Agreement, the
parties hereto agree that the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as set forth
herein:

                 1.  Capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise
defined herein but are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the meanings
given to them in the Credit Agreement.

                 2.  The parties hereto agree that failure by the Borrower to
meet certain of the financial covenants in subsections 8.03(a), (c), (d), (e),
(f) and (g) for any periods ending on or prior to January 31, 1996 shall not
constitute Defaults or Events of Default on or prior to January 31, 1996.
Notwithstanding such waiver, such Events of Default shall continue to exist for
purposes of Sections 8.02(f)(B)(III) and (E) of the Credit Agreement.

                 3.       Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby

         up to $8,000,000, subject to reduction as provided in Sections 2.07(f)
         and (g) hereof, in accordance with Articles II and III hereof, which

         Credit Agreement for all purposes hereof; provided, that such
         additional Loans and Syndicated Letters of Credit made under the
         Overline Facility shall not be included in determining whether the
         Borrower has exceeded the Total Commitment.

                 4.       The following definitions of Section 1.01 of the
Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated as follows:

                          "Commitment" of each Bank shall mean the amount set

                 5.       The definition of "Net Cash Proceeds" in Section 1.01
of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following concluding
sentence:

                 "As used herein, the disposition of assets shall include (i)
         any financing secured by any real property which generates new proceeds
         for the Borrower, other than purchase money indebtedness, (ii) any
         refinancing of indebtedness secured by assets which generates proceeds
         for the Borrower in excess of the indebtedness being refinanced and
         (iii) the disposition of foreign exchange, forward or other hedging
         contracts which generate proceeds for the Borrower."

                 6.       Section 2.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended to read in its entirety as follows:

                 "The Loans.  Prior to the Termination Date, and subject to the
         terms and conditions of this Agreement, and except as otherwise
         provided in Section 2.07(f), upon the request of the Borrower, and
         upon the satisfaction by the Borrower or the waiver by each of the
         Banks of each of the conditions precedent contained in Article VII
         applicable thereto, each of the Banks, severally and not jointly with
         the other Banks, agrees to make one or more Loans to the Borrower from
         time to time in an aggregate principal amount at any one time
         outstanding not to exceed its Commitment; provided, however, that the
         sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding Loans, plus (ii) the aggregate
         outstanding Swing Line Advances, plus (iii) the aggregate Face Amount
         of Syndicated Letters of Credit outstanding at any time may not exceed
         the Total Commitment and further  provided that although the Loans
         include the Dividend Loan and Loans and Syndicated Letters of Credit
         under the Overline Facility, for purposes of this Agreement, the term
         Total Commitment and calculations to determine whether amounts have
         exceeded the Total Commitment shall be exclusive of the Dividend Loan
         and Loans and Syndicated Letters of Credit under the Overline
         Facility.  Certain Banks, as listed on Schedule B to the Fifth
         Amendment, agree to provide the Overline Facility from the date of
         execution of the Fifth Amendment through January 31, 1996.  Except as
         otherwise expressly provided herein and except that references to each
         Bank applicable to Loans under the Overline Facility shall refer only
         to the Banks identified in Schedule B to the Fifth Amendment, Loans
         under the Overline Facility shall be subject to the same terms and
         provisions as all other Loans."

<PAGE>   5
                 7.       The second sentence of Section 2.02(a) is hereby
amended to read as follows:

         "ABR Loans shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of $100,000 or in
         integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof."

                 8.       Section 2.06 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended to read in its entirety as follows:

                 "Optional Prepayment.  The Borrower shall have the right, on
         not less than one Business Day's written notice to the Agent, to
         prepay the Overline Facility (and all optional prepayments shall be
         applied first to prepay the Overline Facility, except if any Loans
         have been made or Syndicated Letters of Credit issued in connection
         with the Remaining Available Commitment (as defined in Section
         2.07(f)), in which case all optional prepayments shall be applied
         first to prepay such Loans or to reduce such Syndicated Letters of
         Credit in the manner provided in Section 2.07(d)(iii)(B) or (C)), and
         after the Overline Facility (or Loans and Syndicated Letters of Credit
         with respect to the Remaining Available Commitment, if applicable) has
         been repaid, to prepay Loans bearing interest on the same basis and
         having the same Interest Periods, if any, in whole or in part, without
         premium or penalty, in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or
         in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, in the case of
         ABR Loans, or in the aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000 or in
         integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, in the case of
         Eurodollar Loans (or, if the outstanding aggregate amount of such Loan
         is less than $3,000,000 or $100,000, as the case may be, then all of
         such lesser amount), together with accrued interest on the principal
         being prepaid to the date of prepayment and, in the case of Eurodollar
         Loans, the amounts required by Section 5.03.  Subject to the terms and
         conditions hereof, prepaid Loans may be reborrowed.

                 9.       Section 2.07(d) of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended by adding the following concluding sentence:

         "The calculations under this Section 2.07(d) shall exclude items
         outstanding under the Overline Facility and the Dividend Loan."

                 10.      Sections 2.07(f) and (g) of the Credit Agreement are
hereby restated to read in their entirety as follows:

                 "(f) Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Section
         2.07, for the period through January 31, 1996 any Net Cash Proceeds
         received from the disposition of any individual asset or group of
         related assets (other than sales of inventory in the ordinary course
         of business) resulting in net proceeds to the Borrower of more than
         $100,000 shall be applied promptly following receipt thereof (i)
         first, to repay the outstanding Dividend Loan, (ii) second, with
         respect to the first $5,000,000 of such proceeds after the Dividend
         Loan is repaid, to permanently reduce the Total Commitment and the
         Overline Facility on a pro rata basis, and (iii) third, with respect
         to any further Net Cash Proceeds, one-half of such Net Cash Proceeds
         to permanently reduce the Total Commitment and the Overline Facility
         on a pro rata basis and the remaining one-half of such Net Cash
         Proceeds, first to reduce outstanding Loans and to the extent there
         are no outstanding Loans, to reduce outstanding Syndicated Letters of
         Credit in the manner provided in Section 2.07(d)(iii)(B) or (C);
         provided, however, that the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds applied
         to reduce outstanding Loans and Syndicated Letters of Credit (the
         "Remaining Available Commitment") may only be reborrowed if the
         Overline Facility has been fully utilized; and (iv) if the aggregate
         amount of such Net Cash Proceeds from the date hereof exceeds
         $30,000,000, the Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $30,000,000 shall
         thereafter be applied to permanently reduce the Total Commitment and
         the Overline Facility on a pro rata basis.  Notwithstanding any
         contrary provision in this Section 2.07, after January 31, 1996 any
         Net Cash Proceeds received from the disposition of any individual
         asset or group of related assets (other than sales of inventory in the
         ordinary course of business) resulting in net proceeds to the Borrower
         of more than $100,000 shall be applied promptly following receipt
         thereof (i) first, to repay the outstanding Dividend Loan and (ii)
         second, to permanently reduce the Total Commitment and the Overline
         Facility on a pro rata basis.  Any notes or other securities received
         in connection with any such disposition shall be pledged to the Banks
         until such notes and securities are liquidated, at which time the Net
         Cash Proceeds therefrom shall be applied as set forth in the two
         preceding sentences.  Promptly upon receipt of any such Net

         officer of FRI or the Borrower, as the case may be, setting forth the
         amount of the gross cash proceeds received and the items deducted
         therefrom in reasonable detail in order to confirm the amount of such
         Net Cash Proceeds and the amount of any notes or marketable securities
         received.

                 (g)  Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement,
         the Total Commitment of the Banks, as listed in Schedule B of the
         Fifth Amendment, is $125,082,007 (exclusive of the remaining balance
         on the Dividend Loan and the Overline Facility), and no Bank will be
         obligated to extend any Loans (other than Loans under the Overline
         Facility) or participate in any Swing Line Advances or Syndicated
         Letters of Credit (other than Syndicated Letters of Credit under the
         Overline Facility) if the same would cause the total outstandings
         under this Agreement (exclusive of the Dividend Loan and the Overline
         Facility) to exceed $125,082,007, as such amount may be reduced from
         time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, on any day after
         October 31, 1995."

                 11.      Section 3.01(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended to read in its entirety as follows:

                 "(b)  Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.07(f), the
         Syndicated Letters of Credit (A) shall have an aggregate face amount
         not in excess of the Syndicated Letters of Credit Commitment, (B) may,
         at the sole option of the Issuing Bank, be renewable if so requested
         by the Borrower using the form for such request then in general use by
         the Issuing Bank, and (C) shall have an expiration date no later than
         the earlier of (i) 365 days after the date of issuance thereof and
         (ii) the Termination Date.  There shall not be outstanding at any one
         time more than twenty separate Syndicated Letters of Credit.  Except
         as otherwise expressly provided herein and except that references to
         each Bank applicable to Syndicated Letters of Credit under the
         Overline Facility shall refer only to the Banks identified in Schedule
         B to the Fifth Amendment, Syndicated Letters of Credit under the
         Overline Facility shall be subject to the same terms and provisions as
         all other Syndicated Letters of Credit.  The aggregate value of all
         Syndicated Letters of Credit, including the Syndicated Letters of
         Credit

         under the Overline Facility, may not exceed the Syndicated Letters of
         Credit Commitment.

                 12.      The third sentence of Section 3.01(h) is hereby
amended to read as follows:

         "On the day that Revolving Loans are to be made in order to pay such
         Reimbursement Obligation, each Bank shall, subject to and in
         accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including
         satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII hereof), make
         a Loan, the proceeds of which shall be applied to such Reimbursement
         Obligation; provided, however , that such Loan may be in amounts less
         than the minimum aggregate principal amount or in amounts other than
         in multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof as required by Section
         2.02(a); and provided further that, with respect to such Loan, such
         Bank shall be required to make available to the Issuing Bank under
         Section 2.02(b) only an amount equal to the difference, if any,
         between the amount of such Loan and the amount remitted through the
         Agent to the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.01(f).

                 13.      Section 4.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended to read in its entirety as follows:

         "Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, after October 31,
         1995 all new Loans and all roll-over Loans shall bear interest as ABR
         Loans and any contrary designation in a Loan Request or Conversion
         Request shall have no effect."

                 14.      Section 6.01(t) of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

                          "(t) Solvency.  On the date of each Loan and Swing
         Line Advance hereunder, and after the payment of all estimated legal,
         investment banking, accounting and other fees related hereto, the
         Borrower will be Solvent."

                 15.      Section 7.03(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby
amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

                          "(c) The Agent shall have received from the Borrower a
         certificate signed by an authorized officer of the Borrower specifying
         that the proceeds of such Loan, Swing Line Advance, Syndicated Letter
         of Credit,

         or Overline Facility shall be used as working capital and to fund the
         operations of the Borrower and its subsidiaries and detailing the use
         of such proceeds."

                 16.   The provisions of Section 8 of the Credit Agreement
are hereby waived with respect to the severance arrangements with Jack Goodall,
Jr. described in Schedule C of the Fifth Amendment, including the cancellation
of a loan in the approximate principal amount of $676,000 which was previously

         of FRI common stock in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement in an
         aggregate amount not to exceed $3,500,000, provided that such
         purchases are consummated on or prior to October 31, 1995, (II) to
         officers and employees in the ordinary course of business in an
         aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed
         $300,000, (III) to the Borrower and the Subsidiaries and (IV) to the
         entities listed on Schedule 8.02(f)."

                 "(E)  So long as there is no Event of Default, FRI, the

         Borrower, options on any such shares or related stock appreciation
         rights or similar securities held by directors, officers, employees or

         2.07(f) of the Credit Agreement and other than payments relative to the
         Dividend Loan, which shall be applied to Credit Lyonnais, payments
         relative to the Loans outstanding under the Overline Facility, which
         shall be applied to the Banks identified in Schedule B of the Fifth
         Amendment on a pro rata basis, and Letter of Credit Fees with respect
         to Syndicated Letters of Credit issued under the Overline Facility,
         which shall be applied to the Banks identified in Schedule B of the
         Fifth Amendment on a pro rata basis, in the event that any Bank shall
         receive from the Borrower or any other source any payment of, on
         account of, or for or under this Agreement or any other Credit Document
         (whether received pursuant to the exercise of any right of set-off,
         banker's lien, realization upon any security held for or appropriated
         to such obligation or otherwise as permitted by law) other than in
         proportion to its Pro Rata Share, then such Bank shall purchase from
         each other Bank so much of its interest in obligations of the Borrower
         as shall be necessary in order that each Bank shall share such payment
         with each of the other Banks in proportion to each Bank's Pro Rata
         Share; provided, that no Bank shall purchase any interest of any Bank
         that does not, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, set-off
         against the balance of any deposit accounts maintained with it the
         obligations due to it under this Agreement; and provided, further, that
         nothing herein contained shall obligate any Bank to apply any set-off
         or banker's lien or collateral security permitted hereby first to the
         obligations of the Borrower hereunder if the Borrower is obligated to
         such Bank pursuant to other loans or notes, but any such application of
         proceeds shall be in proportion to the total obligations of the
         Borrower to such Bank.  In the event that any purchasing Bank shall be
         required to return any excess payment received by it, the purchase
         shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of
         such return, but without interest."

                 21.      The first sentence of Section 12.03 of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

         "FRI and the Borrower agree to pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket
         expenses of the Agent and Collateral Agent (including the reasonable
         fees and expenses of Sullivan & Cromwell and of Zalkin, Rodin &
         Goodman, LLP, as counsel to the Agent and Collateral Agent) in
         connection with the preparation of this Agreement and

         two counsel representing the Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing
         Bank, the Swing Line Bank and the Banks in connection with the
         administration and enforcement of any provisions of this Agreement,
         the other Credit Documents or any amendment or supplement hereto or
         thereto."

                 22.  Notwithstanding any provision herein or in any Credit
Document to the contrary, the Banks which are not participating in the Overline
Facility or the Dividend Loan, as indicated on Schedule B hereto, (i) shall not
be responsible for any liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any
kind or nature arising solely out of the Dividend Loan or the Overline
Facility, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Bank in connection
therewith and (ii) shall not receive or have any interest in any reimbursements
relating to clause (i) above.

                 23.  The Borrower and FRI represent and warrant that the
execution and delivery of this Fifth Amendment by each of the Borrower, FRI and
the Subsidiary Guarantors has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate
action and this Fifth Amendment is enforceable without any further approval,

upon the delivery to the Agent of executed counterparts of this Fifth Amendment
from the Company and the Banks and the Agent shall so inform all of the parties
hereto.

                 26.  The Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be binding
upon the Borrower, FRI, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Banks, the Agent, the
Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank and their respective
successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Company, FRI, the
