Texas corporation ("CluckCorp") on June 30, 1994, upon the conversion of, and
as partial payment for, a promissory note of CluckCorp owed to Watermarc in the
principal amount of $800,000 (the "Note") issued in June 1993 and in exchange
for certain other advances owed to Watermarc. The Note had a maturity date of
June 30, 1998, and was payable, at the option of CluckCorp, in whole or in
part, in cash or with Common Stock of CluckCorp. During 1994 CluckCorp repaid a
portion of the Note in cash and the remaining portion of the Note and certain
advances were paid with the Shares. Watermarc subsequently sold the Shares of
CluckCorp to JEB Investment Corporation, a Texas corporation ("JEB") in
exchange for a $1,800,000 recourse promissory note executed by JEB as maker
(the "JEB Note") bearing interest at 9% per annum, payable annually, with a
final maturity date of June 30, 1996. Prior management of Watermarc entered
into all of the foregoing transactions between CluckCorp, Watermarc and JEB.
The JEB Note was secured by the Shares pursuant to a Pledge Agreement of even
date therewith. JEB defaulted on the payments required under the JEB Note. On
or about May 8, 1997, JEB, Watermarc and Michael H. Hogan, a resident of Texas
and the President of JEB ("Hogan"), executed and delivered a Mutual

Release Agreement whereby JEB relinquished all right, title and interest in the
Shares to Watermarc pursuant to Watermarc's foreclosure rights in consideration
for Watermarc relinquishing all of its rights under the JEB Note. In addition,
the parties to the Mutual Release Agreement agreed to mutual general releases
against each other conditioned upon certain representations and compliance with
the Mutual Release Agreement.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Watermarc received the Shares in June 1994 from CluckCorp as partial payment of
the Note and other advances owed by CluckCorp to Watermarc which Shares were
then sold to JEB in a private transaction by prior management of Watermarc. See
Item 3. Watermarc received the Shares because CluckCorp could not pay the Note
and other amounts owed to Watermarc in cash. See Item 3. CluckCorp had the
option to repay the Note to Watermarc in whole or in part with its Common Stock
which it elected to do. On or about May 8, 1997, solely because of JEB's
inability to pay the JEB Note, in whole or in part, in cash and in a timely
manner and solely because of prior and continuing defaults on the JEB Note, the
parties executed and delivered the Mutual Release Agreement and Watermarc
received the Shares pursuant to its legal foreclosure rights. See Item 3.

         It is not the current intention of Watermarc to hold the Shares for
long-term investment or for any other purposes. However, Watermarc reserves the
right to retain the Shares, or any portion of the Shares, for investment
purposes, should its intentions change in the future for any reasons including,
but not limited to, adverse market conditions, substantial declines or
increases in the market price of the Common Stock, a lack of liquidity in the
public market for the Shares or for any other reason. Watermarc intends to sell
the Shares in public or private transactions as soon as reasonably practicable.
At this time, Watermarc has no intention to acquire any additional shares, of
any class, of CluckCorp. Watermarc has no present intentions, plans or
proposals which relate to or would result in:

         (a)      The acquisition by any person of additional securities of
                  CluckCorp, or the disposition of securities of CluckCorp,
                  except as described above;

         (b)      An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
                  reorganization or liquidation, involving CluckCorp or any of
                  its subsidiaries;

         (c)      A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of
                  CluckCorp or any of its subsidiaries;

         (d)      Any change in the present board of directors or management of
                  CluckCorp, including any plans or proposals to change the
                  number of or term of directors or to fill any existing
                  vacancies on the board;

         (e)      Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend
                  policy of CluckCorp;

         (f)      Any other material change in CluckCorp's business or
                  corporate structure;

         (g)      Changes in CluckCorp's charter, bylaws or instruments
                  corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
                  acquisition or control of CluckCorp by any person;

         (h)      Causing a class of securities of CluckCorp to be delisted
                  from a national securities exchange or to cease to be
                  authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system
                  of a registered national securities association;

         (i)      A class of equity securities of CluckCorp becoming eligible
                  for termination of registration to Section 12(g)(4) of the
                  Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or

         (j)      Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

(a) Watermarc owns 240,000 shares of Common Stock of CluckCorp. Based on
CluckCorp's form SB-2/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
April 29, 1997, CluckCorp disclosed that as of December 29, 1996, it had
2,112,750 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Accordingly, to the
best of Watermarc's knowledge at this time, Watermarc's ownership percentage is
11.4% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of CluckCorp, without giving
any effect to any potential dilution as a result of any outstanding options,
warrants or other convertible or exchangeable securities of CluckCorp which may
be outstanding. Watermarc has no right to acquire any additional shares of 
CluckCorp.

(b) Watermarc has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote and the sole
power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of the Shares.

(c) Watermarc has not engaged in any transactions with respect to the Common
Stock of CluckCorp during the sixty (60) day period preceding the date of this
filing.

(d) No other person is known by Watermarc to have the right to receive or the
power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale
of, the Shares owned by Watermarc.

(e)      Not applicable.

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

Except for the Mutual Release Agreement referred to in Items 3 and 4 above
whereby Watermarc finalized its foreclosure on the Shares from JEB, there are
no contracts, arrangements, understandings, or relationships (legal or
otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 hereof and between such persons
and any person with respect to any securities of CluckCorp.

ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

There are no written agreements relating to the filing of joint acquisition
statements as required by Rule 13d-1(f) or agreements of Watermarc relating to
(i) the borrowing of funds to finance any acquisitions, required to be
disclosed in Item 3; (ii) the acquisition of issuer control, liquidation, sale
of assets, merger, or change in business or corporate structure or any other
matter required to be disclosed in Item 4; and (iii) the transfer or voting of
the securities, finders fees, joint ventures, options, puts, calls, guarantees
of loans, guarantees against loss or of profit, or the giving or withholding of
any proxy required to be disclosed in Item 6.
