     On August 13, 1998, Cinnabon  International,  Inc., a Delaware  corporation
("Cinnabon"),  and a portfolio  company of ML-Lee  Acquisition  Fund (Retirement
Account) II, L.P.  (the  "Retirement  Fund"),  executed an Agreement and Plan of
Merger with AFC  Enterprises,  Inc.  ("AFC")  pursuant to which AFC will acquire
Cinnabon  by merger  (the  "Merger").  The  Merger,  which is subject to certain
closing conditions, is anticipated to be consummated by the end of September.

     In connection with the Merger,  Cinnabon will repay certain portions of its
outstanding  debt,  including  all accrued and unpaid  interest  thereon and any
premiums  in  connection  therewith.  As  a  result,  Cinnabon  will  repay  the
Subordinated  Note held by the  Retirement  Fund,  together with all accrued and
unpaid   interest   thereon  and   prepayment   premiums  for  an  aggregate  of
approximately $4.5 million (of which $3.9 million represents return of capital).
The Warrants to purchase  Common Stock of Cinnabon held by the  Retirement  Fund
will be cancelled for no consideration. The per Unit amount to be distributed to
the Fund's Limited  Partners from this  transaction is not  determinable at this
time. Net  Distributable  Capital  Proceeds less the payment of expenses and the
establishment  of reserves,  if any, will be distributed to Limited  Partners of
record as of the closing  date of this  transaction,  which is expected to be in
September 1998.
