           obtained prior to the consummation of the Offer under any antitrust

           the Acquirers at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights
           will not be deemed a waiver of any right, the waiver of any such
           rights with respect to any particular facts or circumstances shall
           not be deemed a waiver with respect to any other facts or
           circumstances, and each right will be deemed an ongoing right which
           may be asserted at any time and from time to time.

ITEM 6.  PURPOSES OF THE TRANSACTION AND PLANS OR PROPOSALS.

           The text of the Offer to Purchase under the caption "THE OFFER -
Purpose of the Offer and the Proposed Merger; Plans for the Company - The
Proposed Merger", at page 21 of the Offer to Purchase, is amended by inserting
the following after the first paragraph thereof:

                     "In the event that the Offer is consummated and the
           proposed Merger does not occur, or pending consummation of the
           proposed Merger, shareholders who have not tendered their Shares
           pursuant to the offer would continue to hold their Shares. Unless
           certain conditions to the Offer were waived, Shares owned by the
           Acquirors would provide them with majority voting power and
           representatives of the Acquirers would constitute a majority of the
           Quality Dining Board. In addition, as described above, (1) the number
           of Shares that trade publicly would be reduced, which could adversely
           affect the liquidity and market value of the remaining, untendered
           Shares (2) depending upon the number of Shares purchased pursuant to
           the Offer, the Shares may no longer meet the standards for continued
           inclusion on the Nasdaq National Market; (3) reduction in the number
           of shareholders and Shares outstanding could result in the Shares
           becoming eligible for deregistration under the Exchange Act.
           Deregistration would make the Shares ineligible for continued
           inclusion on the Nasdaq National Market, substantially reduce the
           information required to be furnished by the Company to its
           shareholders and the SEC and would make certain provisions of the
           Exchange Act no longer applicable to the Company. See Section 7."
