Foreign Currency Translation

The  functional  currency  for  the  Company's  United  Kingdom  subsidiary  and
Australian  subsidiary  is the British  pound  sterling and  Australian  dollar,
respectively. The translation from British pound sterling and Australian dollars
into U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange
rates in effect at the balance  sheet date and for revenue and expense  accounts
using a weighted  average  exchange rate during the period.  The gains or losses

     Commission.

[D]  Acquisitions

     On November 9, 1995 the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered

     ("Brinker") which grants the Company the exclusive right to own and operate
     Chili's Restaurants in Australia and New Zealand (the "Pacific  Development
     Agreement").  The Pacific  Development  Agreement has an initial term of 10
     years and is renewable at the  Company's  discretion  for an  additional 10
     year  period if a combined  minimum of 40  Chili's  Restaurants  are opened
     between the two countries.

     Also on November  9, 1995,  the Company  acquired  from  Brinker all of the
     stock of Chili's Texas Grill Pty Limited,  an Australian  company ("Chili's
     Texas Grill").  Chili's Texas Grill operates two Chili's  Restaurants  near
     Sydney,  Australia. The purchase price for the acquisition of Chili's Texas
     Grill is payable in three equal  installments on November 9, 1995, 1996 and
     1997.  The purchase  agreement  also required  Chili's Texas Grill to pay a
     management fee to Brinker by November 30, 1995.

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Plan of
Operation

General

The  Company  was  incorporated  on June 14,  1994 and has a  limited  operating
history.  The  Company was in the  development  stage  until  October  1995 when
operations  commenced.  The  Company has spent  significant  time  focusing  its
efforts on various  activities  including  selecting sites,  hiring and training
management  personnel,  establishing  administrative  and financial policies and
procedures and undertaking other activities necessary to operate new restaurants
in United  Kingdom and  Australia.  To date,  the  Company has five  restaurants
operating.

The Company  was formed to develop  Chili's  Bar & Grill  Restaurants  ["Chili's
Restaurants"],   a  full   service   restaurant   concept   created  by  Brinker
International,  Inc. ["Brinker"]. The Company has the exclusive right to own and
operate Chili's Bar & Grill Restaurants in the United Kingdom, Australia and New
Zealand pursuant to development and license agreements [the "Chili's Development
Agreements"]  with Brinker.  The Company has the option to terminate the Chili's
Development  Agreement,  without  further  obligation  to Brinker by November 1,
1996.

The Company  initially  intends to concentrate the opening of restaurants in the
United  Kingdom  in  central  London  and  the  south  of  England,   where  the
demographics, site characteristics and proximity to retail/office complexes will
generate  high  volumes.  In  Australia,  the  Company  intends  to  concentrate
restaurants  in the large  metropolitan  areas such as Melbourne and Sydney.  In
general, a Chili's Restaurant will average  approximately  5,800 to 7,000 square
feet in size with  seating  capacity of 210-250  people.  The decor of a Chili's
restaurant consists of booth seating,  tile-top tables, hanging plants, and wood
and brick walls covered with  interesting  memorabilia.  The Company  intends to
lease all the restaurant sites. The Company expects the total cost in the United
Kingdom  to  be  approximately  $1.2  million   (including   design,   leasehold
improvements.  purchase of equipment and fixtures and start-up costs)  excluding
leasing costs and license fees. In Australia, the Company expects the cost to be
approximately $815,000.

The Company  opened its first  Chili's  Restaurant  at Canary  Wharf,  London on
October 9, 1995 and opened  additional  restaurants  on March 20,1996 and May 1,
1996 in Cambridge and central  London  respectively.  The Company  purchased two
restaurants in Australia in November (See Note [D]). The Company intends to open
2 more in Australia before the end of the year.


Comparison  of the three month  period April 1 to June  30,1996,  and April 3 to
July 2, 1995.

The Company  recognized only consulting  revenues in the second quarter 1995. In
the second quarter 1996, the five restaurants generated revenues of $2,187,521 .
Average weekly sales were $35,861.

The three  restaurants in the United Kingdom  achieved average weekly sales of $
30,885.  The sales at the two new restaurants  trended downward from the opening
sales rates  consistent with the honeymoon period  experience.  The sales trends
stabilized  at the end of the second  quarter.  The  Company has  implemented  a
marketing  plan  designed  to  increase  sales  at its  restaurants.  The  third
restaurant,  Canary Wharf,  averaged $21,300 per week in revenues for the second
quarter.  This average was lower than the previous  quarter as the tourist trade
has stayed away from the Canary Wharf Complex because of heightened  security as
a result of the recent IRA activity.  Food costs as a percentage of revenue came
down 5% in the second quarter,  from 40% to 35%, and are closer to the Company's
objectives of total food and labor costs of 60% or below.

The two  restaurants  in  Australia  averaged  $42,560  per  week in the  second
quarter.  The  same  store  sales  increased  by 8%  over  last  year  when  the
restaurants  were  under  different  ownership.  The food and  labor  costs as a
percentage of revenue are  consistent  with the  Company's  objectives of 60% or
less.

The general and  administrative  costs are primarily in connection with salaries
and  office  costs,  travel  and  professional  fees and  fixed  costs  directly
attributable  to the  restaurants.  The  general  and  administrative  costs are
abnormally  high as a  percentage  of  revenue  and the  Company  anticipates  a
decrease as a percentage of revenue as more restaurants are opened.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company cash and cash equivalents  increased by $1,005,103 in the quarter as
the Company  obtained  financing.  For the first six months,  the Company's cash
position  has  decreased by  $341,199.  The Company has financed new  restaurant
construction  and store  development  costs with the  remaining  proceeds of the
Initial Public Offering and the financing  arrangements detailed below. In March
1996, the Company  obtained an  approximately  $1 million fixed rate 7 year term
loan with National  Westminster Bank in the United Kingdom. The Company received
a commitment from the National  Australian Bank for an asset lease  arrangement.
Under the terms, the bank will purchase the furniture/fittings/equipment for the
restaurants  and lease them to the Company  under a five year term.  The Company
will have the right to  acquire  the  assets at the end of the term at a bargain
price.

In June 1996,  the Company  obtained an additional $1 million loan from Woodland
Limited  Partnership.  This loan is a six month loan repayable in December.  The
Company also raised $1,145,000 through the sale of common shares [Note C].

The  Company  believes  that the  anticipated  future cash flow  generated  from
operations,  and the  financing  that has been  secured  will be  sufficient  to
construct and commence  operations at two to three  restaurants over the next 12
months.  If the Company's  plans change or assumptions or estimates  prove to be
inaccurate,  the  Company may require  additional  funds to achieve  anticipated

                                       7

increased  sales or, if such funds are  unavailable,  the  Company  will have to
reduce its operations to a level consistent with its available funding.

Impact of Inflation

Inflation is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's operations.
