         Surviving Corporation, Mr. Dressell owned 1,673,267
         shares of Bruegger's common stock, $.001 par value per
         share.  At the effective time of the merger, each share
         of Mr. Dressell s Bruegger s common stock was converted

         result of the merger, Mr. Dressell acquired the
         securities described below in Item 5(a).

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

         Mr. Dressell acquired his shares on June 7, 1996, when
         BAC, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Issuer, merged
         with and into Bruegger's with Bruegger s as the
         Surviving Corporation, and each of Mr. Dressell s
         Bruegger s common shares was converted into 1.2931
         shares of common stock of Issuer.  As a result of the
         merger, Mr. Dressell acquired the securities described
         below in Item 5(a).  Mr. Dressell does not have a
         present intention to acquire or dispose of shares of
         Common Stock of Issuer, but this may change depending
         upon market conditions.  Mr. Dressell does not have any
         present plans which relate to or would result in: an
         extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
         a reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer
         or any of its subsidiaries; a sale or transfer of a
         material amount of assets of the Issuer or any of its
         subsidiaries; any change in the present board of
         directors or management of the Issuer including any
         plans or proposals to change the number or term of
         directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the
         board; any material change in the present
         capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer; any
         other material change in the Issuer s business or
         corporate structure; changes in the Issuer s charter,
         by-laws or instruments corresponding thereto or other
         actions which may impede the acquisition of control of
         the Issuer by any person; causing a class of securities
         of the Issuer to be delisted from a national securities
         exchange or cease to be authorized to be quoted in an
         inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national
         securities association; causing a class of equity
         securities of the Issuer to become eligible for
         termination of registration pursuant to
         Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of
