ITEM 1.  CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT

         Not applicable.

ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

On May 21, 1996, BAB Holdings, Inc. (Holdings or the Company), an Illinois
corporation, completed the acquisition of the assets of Strathmore Bagels
Franchise Corp. (Strathmore), a New York corporation. Strathmore is engaged in
the business of distributing bagels and related products, at wholesale, and the
collection of royalties on the related retail sale of those products pursuant to
a license agreement, dated November 30, 1995 with Host International, Inc. (Host
Marriott). (See Licensing Agreement filed as an exhibit hereto.) At the time of
the acquisition, Strathmore had entered into individual contracts pursuant to
the Licensing Agreement for 19 bagel-deli units and 15 bagel cart / display
units in several major airports and travel plazas in the United States. These
bagel-deli and display units are owned and operated by Host Marriott.

         The assets acquired by Holdings include the licensing contracts with
Host Marriott and the individual contracts for each facility, supply contracts,
equipment leases and other contractual arrangements with vendors. Additionally,
Holdings acquired the machinery, equipment and improvements owned by Strathmore
and located in the Host Marriott facilities.

         The purchase of the assets was completed in exchange for the following
consideration: (a) $850,000 in cash paid at closing; (b) an option to purchase
625,000 shares of Holdings' common stock, no par value, exercisable during a
period commencing on May 21, 1997 and ending on May 21, 1999 (312,500 shares
exercisable from May 21, 1997 and all shares exercisable from May 21, 1998) at
an exercise price of $6.17 per share (see Stock Option Agreement filed as an
exhibit hereto); and (c) additional consideration based on the number of and
gross sales volumes of additional units opening, as follows:

         (i)  $5,000 for every bagel-deli unit operated under the Host Marriott
              agreement opened during the two years following the closing of
              this acquisition,

         (ii) A percentage of annual gross sales of the units identified in (i)
              above, which result in royalty payments to Holdings, at a rate of
              5% of sales from $250,000.01 and $350,000, plus 3% of sales from
              $350,000.01 to $450,000, plus 1% of sales from $450,000.01 to
              $650,000, measured for a twelve month period,

         (iii)3% of annual gross sales, which result in royalty payments to
              Holdings, for each cart / display unit opened during the year
              following the closing of this acquisition, measured for a
              twelve-month period commencing 60 days after the unit is placed in
              operation, and

         (iv) Options to purchase 1,500 shares of Holdings common stock, no par
              value, for each bagel / deli unit opened during the first two
              years following the closing of this acquisition, at an exercise
              price of $6.17 per share. Options earned during the first year
              will be issued within 30 days following the end of that year and
              will be exercisable for a period of one year beginning with the
              date of issuance. Additionally, options earned during the second
              year will be issued within 30 days following the end of that year
              and will be exercisable for a period of one year beginning with
              the date of issuance.

         All shares issued pursuant to the options identified above have been
given certain rights to registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (see
Registration Rights Agreement filed as an exhibit hereto).

         The Company financed this transaction using a portion of the net
proceeds from its November 27, 1995 initial public offering of securities.

         The Company will be assigning the activities of the sale of bagels and
other products to the Host Marriott operated facilities and the collection of
royalty on the retail sales thereon, to its wholly owned subsidiary, BAB
Operations, Inc. (Operations). Operations will continue to maintain the units
currently in operation and develop additional units in facilities operated by
Host Marriott.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

         The following unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations
give effect to the acquisition by Holdings of certain assets of (i) Bagels
Unlimited, Inc. (BUI) on May 1, 1996 and (ii) Strathmore on May 21, 1996 as if
both acquisitions had occurred on the first day of the period presented. The
unaudited pro forma combined statement of operations for the year ended November

of operations of Strathmore for the year ended December 3, 1995 which was
included as Schedule 7A in the Form 8-K filed on or about June 5, 1996. The
unaudited pro forma interim combined statement of operations for the six months
ended May 31, 1996 is based on and should be read in conjunction with the
unaudited historical interim consolidated statement of operations of Holdings
for the six months ended May 31, 1996 and the related notes thereto, which was
filed as part of Form 10-QSB for the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 1996. The
unaudited pro forma interim combined statement of operations is also based on
(i) the unaudited interim statement of operations of BUI for the five months
ended April 30, 1996 and (ii) the unaudited interim statement of operations of
Strathmore for the six months ended May 21, 1996.

not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations would have
been had the acquisition of assets been completed as set forth above, nor does
it purport to represent the results of operations of Holdings for future
periods.
