[C]  Due To Related Parties

     Woodland Limited  Partnership  ["Woodland"] is a partnership  controlled by
     members of Mr. Colin  Halpern's  family.  Mr.  Halpern is the President and
     Chairman of the Board of the Company.  As of June 28, 1998, the balance due
     to Woodland for funds advanced to the Company was $1,436,215 which includes
     accrued  interest  payable  of  $269,862.  This note has been  extended  to
     September 1998.  During 1997,  funds were advanced and repayments were made
     to Woodland of approximately $300,000.

     In June 1996,  as partial  consideration  for the  conversion of short-term
     advances to a note payable loan, the Company issued a common stock purchase
     warrant  entitling  Woodland to purchase  166,667  shares of the  Company's
     common stock at $7.50 per share for a period of 24 months commencing on the
     date of the loan.  The warrants will be redeemable at $.01 per share if the
     closing  bid  price  of the  Company's  common  stock  exceeds  $30  for 10
     consecutive  trading  days  ending  within  five  days  of  the  notice  of
     redemption.  In December 1996, Woodland agreed to extend the note due until
     June 1998 and the shares of the  Company's  common stock at $5.25 per share
     for a term expiring  December 31, 1999.  Woodland agreed to extend the note
     due until  September  1998. As of December 29, 1996,  the note was recorded
     net of the fair value of these stock  warrants  at  $694,556  [See Note 6].
     Interest  expense  amortized  on purchase  warrants  for the 52 week period
     ended  December 28, 1997 is  $130,000.  The warrants  were  cancelled  with
     conversion of the notes to equity.

     In March 1997,  the Company  agreed with Woodland  Limited  Partnership  to
     convert  $750,000 of  long-term  debt to 750,000  shares of $1.00 par value
     Series A convertible  preferred  shares.  On September  25, 1997,  Woodland
     agreed to  exchange  its $1.00 par  value  Series A  convertible  preferred
     shares  to  375,000  $2.00  par value  Series B  non-convertible  preferred
     shares.

     On September 25, 1997, Woodland agreed to convert an additional $700,000 of
     notes  payable  into  350,000  $2.00  par  value  Series B  non-convertible
     preferred  shares.  The  agreed  dividend  is 8%  and  is  cumulative.  The
     preferred  shares hold the sale  voting  rights as the common  shares.  The
     warrants issued in connection with notes payable were valued at

                                       8
<PAGE>


     $145,522  and was  accounted  for as a  discount  to the notes  payable  to
     Woodland.  At December 28, 1997, the Company amortized $116,000 as interest
     expense.

     At December 28, 1997,  Woodland  owns  approximately  36% of the  Company's
     outstanding common stock.

     Mr.  Halpern also is the Chairman of the Board of  International  Franchise
     Systems,  Inc. ["IFS"]. At December 31, 1995, IFS had advanced funds to the
     Company in the  amount of  $183,635.  During  1996,  the entire  amount was
     repaid.  IFS charges a  management  fee to the  Company for  administration
     services.  For the years ended December 28, 1997 and December 29,1996, this
     management  fee was $45,000 and $25,000,  respectively,  and those  amounts
     were charged to operations.  IFS and one of its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries
     sublease a facility  to the  Company  in the United  Kingdom.  For the year
     ended  December 28,  1997,  the Company  paid  $133,449 for this  facility.
     During the fifty-two week period ended  December 31, 1995, IFS  transferred
     motor  vehicles under capital lease at the remaining net lease value to the
     Company.  These motor  vehicles were  returned to the leasing  company upon
     cancellation  of the lease and the related asset and liability were written
     off during 1996.

     The Company has advanced  funds to and paid  various  expenses on behalf of
     Mr.  Halpern.  During 1996,  the total amount  advanced to Mr.  Halpern was
     $15,148 with repayments of $35,000.  At December 28, 1997, the total amount
     due to the  Company  is  $31,149.  This  amount  is  being  offset  through
     reimbursements due to Mr. Halpern.

     Mr.  Halpern's  son is an  attorney  with a law firm  that  provides  legal
     services to the  Company.  Legal  expense  incurred  with this firm for the
     fifty-two  weeks ended December 28, 1997 was $70,000.  At December 28, 1997
     there was no balance due and owing by the Company to this firm.

     The Chief  Financial  Officer of the  Company  is also the Chief  Financial
     Officer of IFS.  The charge for his  services was $140,000 and is allocated
     between the two companies.



[D]  Divestitures

     On December 19, 1997, the Company sold its rights to Chili's Restaurants in
     Australia and New Zealand to Brinker International,  Inc. ("Brinker").  The
     $2.68 million  purchase  price was before the payment of liabilities of the
     Australian operation which are estimated to be approximately  $700,000. The
     Company  agreed to use the  remaining  proceeds to repay the Brinker  short
     term loan.

     On December  16, 1997,  the Company  merged its UK  subsidiary,  Restaurant
     House Ltd. with the Celebrated Group Plc.



[E]  Stock Transactions

     On January 23, 1997, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of the 1.6 million
     unissued shares of stock sold under a Reg S share offering. As of March 29,
     1998, the Company had not issued the remaining 600,000 shares of stock. The
     Company is in dispute with the stock  subscriber  regarding the price to be
     paid.  For financial  reporting  purposes,  the Company has  calculated the
     earnings per share with the assumption that the shares had been issued.

     In March 1997,  the Company  agreed with Woodland  Limited  Partnership  to
     convert  $750,000 of  long-term  debt to 750,000  shares of $1.00 par value
     Series A convertible  preferred  shares.  On September  25, 1997,  Woodland
     agreed to  exchange  its $1.00 par  value  Series A  convertible  preferred
     shares  to  375,000  $2.00  par value  Series B  non-convertible  preferred
     shares.

     On September 25, 1997, Woodland agreed to convert an additional $700,000 of
     notes  payable  into  350,000  $2.00  par  value  Series B  non-convertible
     preferred  shares.  The  agreed  dividend  is 8%  and  is  cumulative.  The
     preferred  shares hold the sale  voting  rights as the common  shares.  The
     warrants  issued in  connection  with notes payable were valued at $145,522
     and was accounted  for as a discount to the notes  payable to Woodland.  At
     December 28, 1997, the Company amortized $116,000 as interest expense.

     On November 26, 1997, the Company  effected a  three-for-one  reverse stock
     split of its common  stock.  As a result of the split,  there are 3,420,780
     shares of common stock outstanding.

     The above  issuance  reduced Red Hot ownership of Red Hot Pacific from 100%
     to 95%. As a result of this stock transaction and related liability for the
     guaranty agreement Red Hot reduced its additional paid-in-capital by $2,497
     in consolidation.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result
          of Operations

Overview -

Red Hot Concepts was incorporated in the state of Delaware on June 14, 1994. Red
Hot Concepts and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") are
owned 36% by Woodland  Partnership  Ltd. and the  remaining  shares are publicly
held.  The Company was formed to establish  and develop the Chili's  Grill & Bar
restaurant concept franchised by Brinker  International Inc. ("Brinker") outside
the United States.

At December 31, 1997, the Company no longer had the exclusive  rights to operate
Chili's restaurants in the United Kingdom or Australia. From November 1995 until
December 18, 1997, the Company owned the Chili's concept  development rights for
Australia  and New Zealand.  During 1997,  the Company  operated  three  Chili's
restaurants in Australia (two in suburban Sydney and one in suburban Melbourne).
However,  on December 18, 1997,  the Company sold its Australian and New Zealand
operations back to Chili's franchisor, Brinker International, for $2.68 million.

From July 1994 until  December 15, 1997,  the Company owned the UK rights to the
Chili's concept.  During 1997, the Company  operated two Chili's  restaurants in
the UK (one in Canary Wharf and one in  Cambridge).  On December  15, 1997,  the
Company merged its UK operations into the Celebrated  Group Plc  ("Celebrated").
The Company's  exclusive  development  rights for Chili's  restaurants in the UK
transferred to Celebrated in the merger.

Celebrated  is publicly  traded on the  Alternative  Index  Market  (AIM) of the
London Stock Exchange.  As part of the merger,  Red Hot Concepts acquired 46% of
Celebrated's  outstanding  stock  and  an  option  to  acquire  a 50%  ownership
interest.  In early  1998,  a  principal  officer  and a director of the Company
assumed comparable roles at Celebrated, in addition to retaining their positions
with the Company.

Results of Operations -

The Company realized a net loss of $370,314 for the twenty-six weeks ending June
28, 1998 which  compares to a net loss of $327,335  for the same period in 1997.
The results for  operations  in 1997 have been adjusted to eliminate the trading
results  of the UK and  Australia.  The net loss from  1997 to 1998 was  reduced
significantly  reflecting the Company's effort to minimize expenses. The Company
included its share of the net loss  experienced  by Celebrated  for the thirteen
week period ended March 29, 1998. The Company included the net loss of $262,438,
its share of the loss  experienced  by Celebrated  Group for the thirteen  weeks
ended June 28, 1998.



Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's  negative  working  capital as of June 28, 1998 was  approximately
$0.3  million as compared to a negative  working  capital of $1.2  million as of
December 28, 1997.  Total current  assets remain at $0.4 million as of March 29,
1998 and December 28, 1997.  Current  liabilities  remained at $0.7 million from
December 28, 1997.

The following  chart  represents  the net funds raised and/or used in operating,
financing and investment activities for both periods.

</TABLE>


During  the  thirteen  week  period  ended  June  28,  1998,  the  Company  used
approximately  $354,775 for operating activities.  The Company had a net loss of
approximately   $370,314.   The  Company's   accounts  payable  was  reduced  by
approximately $73,000.

                                       11
<PAGE>

Cash generated by financing activities for the year was approximately  $358,100,
which include the proceeds from a loan from related parties of $358,100.

The Company has  improved  short term  liquidity  through a number of  different
steps including the reduction of  administrative  expenses and headcount and the
rescheduling of payment terms on the advances from Woodland Limited Partnership.
The Company  believes that additional  capital or borrowing will be necessary to
finance working capital in the short-term.  The Company does not anticipate that
Celebrated  will pay dividends in 1998.  The Company does not currently have any
commitments to secure  financing and there is no assurance that the Company will
be able to secure  financing  in the future and that even if the Company is able
to obtain financing, such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the
Company. If the Company's plans change, or if the assumptions or estimates prove
to be inaccurate,  of if the Company is unable to raise more funds,  the Company
will reduce its holdings in Celebrated.

Impact of Inflation

Inflation is not expected to have a material effect on the company's operations.
