Item 1.  Business

(a)      General Development of Business

         On May 6, 1996, R.A.B. Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Holdings"), was formed to build a fully integrated specialty food business by
acquiring food manufacturers with strong brand names and integrating their
products with a strong distribution network. On March 31, 1997, Holdings
acquired Millbrook Distribution Services Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Millbrook"), which is one of the nation's largest value-added full service
independent distributors of specialty foods, health and beauty care products and
general merchandise. On January 26, 1998, Holdings formed a wholly-owned
subsidiary, R.A.B. Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Enterprises"). On
May 1, 1998, Enterprises acquired The B. Manischewitz Company, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company ("Manischewitz"). Manischewitz is among the nation's
leading manufacturers of processed kosher food products including matzos,
noodles, crackers, cake mixes, cookies, soups and processed fish products.

         Concurrent with the Manischewitz acquisition, Holdings contributed its
wholly-owned subsidiary Millbrook to Enterprises. The contribution was accounted
for as an "as if" pooling of interests. Prior to the acquisitions of Millbrook
and Manischewitz, Holdings and Enterprises had no operations. Holdings and
Enterprises are referred to collectively as the "Companies".

         On January 31, 2000, Millbrook acquired certain of the assets and
operations of I. Epstein & Sons, Inc. ("Epstein"). Epstein was a full service
distributor of kosher and specialty food products, including its Season(R) brand
of canned fish, vegetables and other specialty food products. Concurrent with
the acquisition, the management and ownership of the Season brand was assumed by
Manischewitz.

         On April 17, 2000, Millbrook acquired substantially all of the assets
and operations of the Miller Buckeye Biscuit Company, Inc. ("Miller Buckeye")
for a purchase price of approximately $17.6 million, including transaction
costs. Miller Buckeye was a distributor of specialty foods, cookies, crackers
and snacks to grocery and other retail establishments in Ohio, Pennsylvania,
West Virginia and Western New York.

         On November 1, 2000, Manischewitz acquired substantially all of the
assets and operations of Guiltless Gourmet, Inc. ("Guiltless") for a purchase
price of approximately $4.9 million, including transaction costs. Guiltless
owned the number two selling national brand and was a leader in the development
of original baked, not fried, tortilla chips. Guiltless organic baked tortilla
chips, bean dips and salsas are found in natural food supermarkets, supermarket
chains and other grocery and food outlets.

(b)      Financial information about Industry Segments

         Industry segment information with respect to the operations of Holdings
and Enterprises is included in the notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements of Holdings and Enterprises for the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000
and 1999 included in Item 8 herein.

(c)      Narrative Description of Business

Millbrook Distribution Services Inc.

         The Industry. Distributors provide valuable services to both
manufacturers and retailers. Manufacturers benefit from distributors broad
geographic coverage, efficient order processing and inventory management.
Distributors provide retailers access to broad product lines, the ability to
place small quantity orders and shelf and inventory management. Large
distributors with broad geographic coverage and an extensive offering of items
generally have a competitive advantage.

         Due to consolidations over the past several years, the number of
manufacturers and retailers has decreased. Additionally, retailers have
increasingly focused on reducing their supply chain costs with corresponding
improvements in their margins. As a result, we believe that manufacturers and
retailers are increasingly dependent on distributors to provide a range of
in-store retailing and merchandising functions previously performed by retail
and/or manufacturer personnel. Distributors increasingly are participating in
all stages of marketing for the products distributed, including category
management, promotions, schematic design and display of products. To efficiently
provide such services, technological innovation has become an essential element
in the distribution industry. For smaller distributors, the costs of the
required investments in technology can be prohibitive.

         Millbrook is one of only a few distributors that focuses specifically
on the distribution of specialty food, health and beauty care and general
merchandise products. The fast growing specialty food business encompasses a
wide range of items in categories such as imported and domestic gourmet foods,
as well as natural, and ethnic foods. Specialty foods typically generate higher
margins for retailers than those realized on other mainstream grocery categories
sold in supermarkets. In addition, the demographic trends in the United States
have sparked consumer demand for more specialty food products. As a result,
supermarkets are adding more specialty food items to their product offerings,
and aggressively promoting them in an attempt to capture a higher market share.

         Retailers are employing a number of marketing techniques to increase
the sales of high margin specialty food items. Stores are using kiosks and free
standing displays to attractively present the products to the consumer. In
addition, retailers are beginning to segregate specialty foods into specific
categories, such as ethnic foods, cookies and sauces. By utilizing a
"store-within-a-store" approach for specialty food, the products receive prime
shelf space within the store. Retailers also integrate specialty foods into
general product categories to familiarize consumers with unique and higher
margin products with the objective of increasing awareness and generating trial
among the broader consumer market. Merchandising expertise is a key selection
criteria for determining the retailer's choice of a specialty food distributor.

         The health and beauty care segment includes baby care, cosmetics,
deodorants, first-aid, hair care, over-the-counter medications, toiletries, oral
hygiene and skin care products. The general merchandise segment covers a wide
variety of non-food categories including housewares, pet supplies, stationery,
baby needs, photo and cleaning supplies. Competition in both the health and
beauty care and general merchandise categories has been intense due to the
growth of mass merchandisers that have captured market share by offering larger
assortments at "everyday low pricing." Despite losing market share, supermarkets
have maintained a stable base of customers and are expected to continue to be a
key outlet for health and beauty care products and general merchandise by
expanding product variety and offering customers one-stop shopping.


                                       2

         Products Distributed. Through its comprehensive product offerings,
Millbrook distributes a wide variety of products to its customers.

         Specialty Foods. For the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999,
specialty food sales were approximately $298.9 million, $192.9 million and
$141.1 million and represented 49.2%, 35.9% and 30.3% of Millbrook's total
revenues, respectively. Millbrook's specialty food category consists of
approximately 19,900 items including ethnic, gourmet, organic and natural foods
and supplements. Millbrook offers ethnic foods such as kosher, Asian, Italian,
Irish, Mexican, Greek and German products, and gourmet foods such as teas,
coffees, spices, baking ingredients, condiments, candies, crackers, cookies,
jams and jellies. Millbrook's organic and natural food products and supplements
include items such as grains, cereals, snacks, beverages, energy bars, baking
ingredients, pasta and sauces.

         We continue to view the specialty food category as an opportunity for
future growth. Due to the higher margins associated with specialty foods,
supermarkets continue to add new specialty food items to their product
offerings. To accommodate its retail customers' desire for a broader offering of
specialty foods, Millbrook carries a wide variety of specialty food products. We
believe that Millbrook's product breadth, together with its merchandising
expertise and advanced technology in supply chain management, will continue to
enable its retail customers to capture the advantages of this product category.

         Health and Beauty Care. For the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and
1999, health and beauty care sales were approximately $222.8 million, $244.0
million and $234.2 million and represented 36.7%, 45.4% and 50.4% of Millbrook's
total revenues, respectively. Millbrook currently carries approximately 15,400
health and beauty care items, including a full line of national and private
label brands. Millbrook's private label health and beauty care products are
offered under its ValuStar(R) brand, which represents less than 1% of
Millbrook's total revenues.

         Health and beauty care product offerings have grown due to new product
introductions and the growth in over-the-counter medications. This creates the
need for retailers to maximize variety in minimal shelf space. In recent years,
supermarkets, Millbrook's primary customer base, have lost market share in
health and beauty care products to mass merchandisers and drug store chains.
However, supermarkets have begun to recapture lost market share by increasing
the shelf space allocated to health and beauty care items and expanding the
variety of those items carried. We believe that Millbrook's capabilities and
extensive product selection make it qualified to serve both the growing mass
merchandiser demand and meet the needs of the supermarket retailers for health
and beauty care items.

         General Merchandise. Millbrook currently carries approximately 11,000
general merchandise items. For the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999,
general merchandise sales were approximately $85.4 million, $101.0 million and
$89.5 million and represented 14.1%, 18.7% and 19.3% of Millbrook's total
revenues, respectively. Although the traditional supermarket cannot afford to
devote as much space to the general merchandise category as compared to the mass
merchandisers, supermarkets have the advantage of more frequent customer
traffic. This consumer traffic ensures that supermarkets will remain a key
outlet for general merchandise. In addition, targeting certain departments such
as pet, bath, candle and stationery as destination categories adds to the
importance of general merchandise in supermarkets.


                                       3

         Retail Services. Millbrook traditionally has supplemented its product
distribution with full supporting services such as schematic development
(including planogramming), space management, new store installations, remodeling
of existing stores, order writing, stocking, new item placement and development
and management of promotions.

         Over time, gross profit margins for these services have eroded
principally as a result of the retail phenomenon of "everyday low pricing." As a
result, Millbrook has developed a system to "unbundle" each of the elements of
the full-service program and use activity-based costing to charge the customer
for each supporting service on a stand-alone basis. In addition, Millbrook
offers these services without product distribution to retail channels other than
supermarkets. This fundamental change in the packaging of the services Millbrook
offers to its customers resulted in the formation of Millbrook Retail
SolutionsSM as a separate group to focus solely on providing merchandising
services.

         By using a predominantly part-time hourly workforce, management
believes Millbrook Retail Solutions has cost advantages over manufacturers and
retailers. Consequently, outsourcing these functions to Millbrook Retail
Solutions' experienced personnel, combined with Millbrook's established customer
base and technology infrastructure, position Millbrook to compete effectively in
the third-party retail service industry. In particular, we believe that
Millbrook's advanced technology in planogramming and its category management
capabilities enable it to provide service offerings that are not readily
available from the competition.

         Customers. Millbrook's top ten customers, which collectively
represented approximately 61%, 72% and 60% of its revenues during the years
ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, have been customers for an
average of 15 years. For the year ended March 31, 2001, supermarkets represented
approximately 81% of revenues and mass merchandisers represented approximately
19% of revenues. While Millbrook enjoys long-term relationships with most of its
customers, consistent with industry practice, substantially all of Millbrook's
customer supply agreements are on a month-to-month basis. Millbrook does have
supply agreements with certain of its significant customers. None of these
supply agreements is for a period of greater than three years.

         For the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, combined revenues from
Millbrook's two largest customers, Ames Department Stores and Shaw's
Supermarkets represented approximately 27.9% and 31.2% of total revenues.

         Suppliers. Millbrook purchases products from leading suppliers in each
of its categories. For the year ended March 31, 2001, the five largest suppliers
in each of Millbrook's three principal product categories were:

      (i) for specialty foods, World Finer Foods, The B. Manischewitz Company,
          LLC, Unilever (Best Foods and Lipton), R.C. Bigelow and The Hain
          Celestial Group;

     (ii) for health and beauty care products, Procter & Gamble, Johnson &
          Johnson, Unilever HPC, Pfizer/Warner Lambert and Gillette; and

    (iii) for general merchandise, Legg's Hosiery, Hartz Mountain Corp.,
          Bradshaw International, Newell Rubbermaid, Inc. and Mead Products.

         For the year ended March 31, 2001, the five largest suppliers
represented (i) for specialty foods, 15% of total purchases; (ii) for health and
beauty care products, 20% of total purchases; and (iii) for general merchandise,
4% of total purchases.


                                       4

The B. Manischewitz Company, LLC

         The Industry. According to Progressive Grocer, the U.S. grocery
industry has been characterized by relatively stable growth based on modest
price and population increases, with total sales of approximately $494 billion
in 2000 reflecting a compound annual growth rate of 3.8% for the five years
ended 2000. According to Integrated Marketing Communications, Inc., kosher foods
are one of the fastest growing categories of the specialty food segment and are
characterized by a stable base of loyal consumers represented primarily by the
Jewish population. According to Integrated Marketing Communications, Inc. and
Packaged Facts, since 1992, sales of kosher foods have increased significantly
among non-Jewish consumers due to heightened awareness of the quality of
ingredients, rabbinical supervision and processing techniques used in
manufacturing kosher foods, together with growing interest in healthier foods
and the trend toward healthier lifestyles.

         Kosher foods are manufactured in accordance with Jewish dietary laws,
which require strict adherence to quality and cleanliness standards. Achieving
such standards requires specialized knowledge and the supervision of a
designated kosher certification agency. Due to the production methods used,
kosher products generally are considered to contain higher quality and healthier
ingredients. According to Integrated Marketing Communications, Inc.,
approximately 40% of the overall kosher category is kosher for Passover
products, which are prepared under even more stringent guidelines than other
kosher products.

         Products. Manischewitz' core businesses consist of traditional products
sold primarily to Jewish consumers under the Manischewitz brand; canned fish and
condiments under the Season brand; and natural organic snack foods sold under
the Guiltless Gourmet brand. Manischewitz is a manufacturer of products
historically consumed during certain Jewish holidays, primarily Passover which
occurs during the spring, and Rosh Hashanah which occurs during the fall.
Manischewitz believes that, among the Jewish population, approximately 100%
recognize the Manischewitz brand name and 90% have tried one or more
Manischewitz products. Manischewitz believes that, among the non-Jewish
population, approximately 80% are familiar with the Manischewitz brand name and
over 50% have tried one or more Manischewitz products. Guiltless and Season
products are consumed all-year round.

         Manischewitz has built its brand awareness and consumer base by
offering a broad assortment of products that can be consumed throughout the
year, as well as expanding its product offerings to accommodate changing tastes
and the popularity of various food items. Manischewitz' new product offerings
include Mediterranean products, full strength canned soups, preserves and snack
items. Many of the new product offerings are intended to appeal to the
mainstream population to expand the customer base for Manischewitz' product
line.

         Manischewitz also licenses its name to other entities for use in the
manufacture, distribution and sale of certain kosher products including wine and
other food products. For each of the years ended March 31, 2001, licensing
revenues represented less than 2% of Manischewitz' total revenues.

         Baked Products. Baked products include daily matzo, Passover matzo
(which is produced to more exacting standards dictated by religious tenets for
Passover) and crackers. The majority of these products are baked at
Manischewitz' Jersey City, New Jersey facilities. Matzo products in this
category are sold under the Manischewitz, Horowitz Margareten and Goodman's
brand names. Matzo product sales generated approximately 20.9%, 26.2% and 25.0%
of Manischewitz' total revenues in fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Manischewitz has a license agreement with Goodman's to use its name on matzo
products and matzo-related products through 2003. In fiscal 2001, matzo products
and matzo-related products sold under the Goodman's name represented less than
1% of Manischewitz' total revenues.


                                       5


<PAGE>


         Manufactured Products. Manufactured products consist of a variety of
soups, sauces, fish, borscht and other processed foods. Soup products constitute
the second largest manufactured product line for Manischewitz and accounted for
approximately 12.8%, 17.0% and 18.2% of its total revenues in fiscal 2001, 2000
and 1999, respectively.

         Co-Packed Products. Manischewitz markets a number of co-packed
products, including cookies, confectionery products, noodles, pasta, tortilla
chips, salsa, condiments, dry soup mixes and canned fish principally under the
Manischewitz, Horowitz Margareten, Goodman's, Season and Guiltless Gourmet brand
names. Manischewitz expects to continue to employ co-packers as a capital
efficient means of bringing its new products to market. Canned fish products
generated approximately 10.4% and 4.6% of Manischewitz' total revenues in fiscal
2001 and 2000, respectively.

         Marketing and Product Development. In fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999,
spending on marketing and trade promotion represented approximately 3.1%, 1.9%
and 2.9% of total revenues, respectively. Management believes, as a percentage
of revenues, that marketing and trade promotion expenses have historically
remained substantially below other food manufacturers. Consistent with its
overall business strategy, in fiscal 2001, management significantly increased
spending on advertising, marketing and promotion of Manischewitz' existing
products and new product offerings, including package design costs.

         During the last few years, the Manischewitz product line has been
expanded to strengthen and broaden its popular appeal. Packaging has been
updated to better communicate good taste and high quality, enhance visibility on
store shelves and attract more contemporary Jewish and non-Jewish consumers.
Manischewitz has introduced no-fat and low-fat items to reinforce the positive
health aspects of its products. Where appropriate, recipes have been improved
and new flavors introduced. In addition, Manischewitz has introduced new
products targeted at both Jewish and non-Jewish consumers and has begun to
capitalize on the positive Manischewitz brand image among consumers. Further,
the Guiltless Gourmet brand allows Manischewitz to capitalize on the growth of
natural and organic foods by developing new products to broaden the brand's
presence and take advantage of Manischewitz' distribution base.

         Distribution. Manischewitz principally sells its products to
independent distributors operating throughout the U.S. and Canada. Two of its
independent distributors represented approximately 37.9%, 40.0% and 34.1% of
total revenues in fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Among its customer
base, supermarkets represented approximately 90% of Manischewitz' fiscal 2001
total revenues and other customers represented approximately 10%. We believe
that Manischewitz' five largest supermarket customers are Kroger, Albertson's,
Publix, Shop Rite and Royal Ahold.

         We estimate that Manischewitz' products are sold in a majority of the
supermarkets throughout the U.S. Due to their importance to Jewish consumers,
Manischewitz' products are "must carry" items for many supermarkets in the U.S.
We continue to seek to obtain shelf space from supermarkets in sections other
than in the kosher aisle. The ability to display Manischewitz' products in the
non-kosher supermarket aisles, for products such as crackers, noodles, soups and
side dishes, will enhance awareness of Manischewitz' products, particularly
among non-Jewish consumers. We believe the Guiltless Gourmet brand will benefit
from expanded distribution in both the natural and snack food aisles in
supermarkets. To support these efforts, we will continue to increase retail and
trade promotional expenditures to enhance product presence and increase sales.

Raw Materials

         The Companies, through its Manischewitz subsidiary, utilize a number of
raw materials in the manufacture of its matzo and matzo-related products,
principally flour. Manischewitz utilizes significant quantities of various fish
in the manufacture of its gefilte fish and the co-packing of its other canned
fish products. Manischewitz also purchases organic corn and spices for the
co-packing of its Guiltless tortilla chips. Supplies of these ingredients are
readily available from a number of sources and are purchased based on price.

Competition

Millbrook Distribution Services Inc.

         Specialty Foods. The competition in the specialty foods segment is
fragmented among approximately 100 distributors, most of which are small and
geographically limited. Millbrook is able to compete effectively in the
specialty foods segment based on its breadth of products and its logistics
capabilities. Its "piece pick" capability gives Millbrook's retailers product
variety without the inventory investment in slower-moving, high margin specialty
food products. Unlike most other specialty food distributors, Millbrook offers a
single source of supply for specialty foods, health and beauty care products and
general merchandise. This generates transportation and distribution efficiencies
for Millbrook. Millbrook's principal competitors in this segment are Gourmet
Awards and Haddon House.

         Health and Beauty Care. Supermarkets historically have placed health
and beauty care products wherever shelf space was available. As supermarkets do
not have the available shelf space to compete with the breadth of health and
beauty care items carried by mass merchandisers, they have become reliant on
delivery and inventory techniques that maximize product variety. Management is
of the opinion that Millbrook's "piece pick" capability and breadth of health
and beauty care product assortment allows its supermarket customers to
effectively compete with mass merchandisers in this product category.
Millbrook's principal competitors in this segment are SuperValu, Fleming and
Associated Wholesale Grocers.

         General Merchandise. Supermarkets are refocusing their efforts to carry
general merchandise specifically matched to their customer profiles and
rethinking the manner in which they allocate shelf space to general merchandise.
We believe product competition in selection and promotion at the retail level
favors distributors such as Millbrook. Millbrook's buying power results in a
large assortment of general merchandise that is continually tailored to meet its
customers' and the consumers' needs. Through Millbrook's "piece pick"
capability, this assortment is available to the retailers with a lower inventory
investment and space allocation. Millbrook's principal competitors in this
segment are SuperValu, Fleming and Associated Wholesale Grocers.

         Retail Services. The retail services industry is competitive and is
predominantly comprised of a large number of small organizations that are either
retailer, channel or region specific. In the opinion of management, there are
numerous retail service companies competing with Millbrook Retail SolutionsSM .
The principal competitive factors within the industry include (i) breadth and
quality of client services; (ii) price; (iii) the ability to execute specific
client priorities rapidly and consistently over a wide geographical region; and
(iv) technological capability.

         We believe the combination of the quality of Millbrook Retail
Solutions' client services and Millbrook's breadth of expertise, including its
retail-oriented technology, experience at store level and logistics capabilities
is unique in the industry.

The B. Manischewitz Company, LLC

         Manischewitz competes within a small group of branded kosher
manufacturers. In the matzo category, all of the domestic producers have been in
the industry for over 80 years. Manischewitz' brand names and the complexities
of complying with kosher manufacturing requirements have all contributed to the
stability of the competitive environment faced by Manischewitz. Management's
business strategy includes promoting and marketing Manischewitz products in the
non-kosher aisles of supermarkets. However, outside the kosher aisle,
Manischewitz products will compete with the products of a significant number of
companies of varying sizes, including divisions or subsidiaries of larger
companies. Many of these competitors have multiple product lines as well as
substantially greater financial and other resources available to them.

         Manischewitz' primary competitor in the production and distribution of
matzo is Streit's, a New York based family-owned regional marketer. Within the
gefilte fish market, Manischewitz competes primarily with Rokeach and its
related brands, including Mothers, Old Vienna and Mrs. Adlers.

         Management believes that Manischewitz' loyal customer base and name
recognition make the brand less vulnerable to competition with respect to its
core products.

Trademarks

         Manischewitz owns a number of registered trademarks in the U.S.,
Canada, Europe, Israel, South Africa and South America. The registered
trademarks in the U.S. include Manischewitz(R), Horowitz Margareten(R), Onion
Tams(R), Passover Pantry(R), Tam Tam(R), Vege-Matzo(R), Wheat Tams(R), Design

Margareten & Design(R), Season(R), Season Kosher Select(R), Gold Boat(R),
Atlantic Gourmet(R), Moadim(R), Guiltless Gourmet(R) and Gourmet without
Guilt(R). Manischewitz has granted exclusive licenses under certain of its
trademarks to others for the manufacture and sale of wine and other food
products. Such licenses are limited in scope to certain territories and entitle
Manischewitz to royalties based on the net sales or revenues of the licensed
products sold. Management is not aware of any facts that would have a material
adverse impact on the continued use of any of its trademarks and trade names.

(d)      Other Matters

Employees

         As of March 31, 2001, we had a total of 2,200 full-time employees, 140
part-time employees and the ability to draw upon 300 service merchandisers
on-call nationwide.

         Millbrook has approximately 200 unionized workers. Most of the
unionized workers are located at the East Brunswick, NJ and Youngstown, OH

Buckeye acquisitions. These unionized workers are represented under contracts
with Teamsters Local 802, which was ratified in December 2000 and will expire in
June 2006 and Teamsters Local 377, which was ratified in April 2000 and will
expire in July 2004.

         Manischewitz has approximately 180 unionized workers at the Jersey
City, NJ and Vineland, NJ facilities. Most of the unionized workers at the
Jersey City, NJ facility are represented under a contract with Bakery,
Confectionery and Tobacco Workers International Union (AFL-CIO, Local 3), which
was ratified in October 2000 and will expire in September 2005. The unionized
workers at the Vineland, NJ facility are represented under a contract with
United Food and Commercial Workers Union (Local 56), which was ratified in May
2000 and will expire in April 2005.

         Management believes that Manischewitz' and Millbrook's relations with
their employees and the unions representing certain groups of employees are
generally good.

         (e)      Financial Information about Foreign and Domestic Operations

         Millbrook provides distribution services to retail locations in 42
states throughout the United States, primarily east of the Rocky Mountains.
Manischewitz' products are primarily sold through distributors throughout the
United States. Revenues generated by sales to distributors primarily in Canada,
Europe and the Middle East accounted for less than 2% of Manischewitz' revenues
in fiscal 2001.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

         The following discussion and analysis of Holdings' and Enterprises'
financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with
the financial information included in their Consolidated Financial Statements.

Overview

         Holdings was formed in 1996 to build a fully integrated specialty food
business by acquiring food manufacturers with strong brand names and integrating
their products with a strong distribution network. On March 31, 1997, Holdings
acquired Millbrook from McKesson. On May 1, 1998, Enterprises, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Holdings, acquired Manischewitz. The results of operations of
Manischewitz are included in the consolidated results of operations since its
date of acquisition. Concurrent with the Manischewitz acquisition, Holdings
contributed Millbrook to Enterprises. This contribution was accounted for as an
"as if" pooling of interests. Prior to its acquisition of Millbrook, Holdings
had no operations. Enterprises, which was formed in 1998 to acquire
Manischewitz, had no operations prior to that acquisition.

         On January 31, 2000, Millbrook acquired certain of the assets and
operations of Epstein. On April 17, 2000, Millbrook acquired substantially all
of the assets and operations of Miller Buckeye. On November 1, 2000,
Manischewitz acquired substantially all of the assets and operations of
Guiltless. The operating results of Epstein's distribution business and Miller
Buckeye are reflected in the operating results of Millbrook since their
respective dates of acquisition. The operating results of the Season brand
business and Guiltless are reflected in the operating results of Manischewitz
since their respective dates of acquisition.

General

         Holdings' and Enterprises' operating subsidiaries are Millbrook and
Manischewitz. Operating costs and expenses consist of cost of sales,
distribution and warehousing and selling, general and administrative expenses.
Cost of sales includes the cost of products manufactured and purchased by
Manischewitz, including raw materials, products purchased under co-packing
arrangements and manufacturing payroll and related employee benefit costs, and
the cost of products distributed by Millbrook. Distribution and warehousing
expenses include payroll and related employee benefit costs of Millbrook's
distribution operation and transportation costs. Selling, general and
administrative expenses include payroll and related employee benefit costs of
Millbrook's and Manischewitz' various sales organizations and other general and
administrative functions.

Year Ended March 31, 2001 Compared to the year ended March 31, 2000

         Revenues. Revenues for the year ended March 31, 2001 increased $71.8
million or 12.4% to $652.4 million as compared to $580.6 million for the year
ended March 31, 2000. Revenues include:

         (i)   Millbrook's revenues of $607.1 million for the year ended March
               31, 2001 as compared to $537.9 million for the year ended March
               31, 2000;

         (ii)  Manischewitz' revenues of $57.7 million for the year ended March
               31, 2001 as compared to $50.3 million for the year ended March
               31, 2000; and

         (iii) Intersegment sales, which are eliminated in consolidation, of
               $12.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2001 as compared to
               $7.6 million for the year ended March 31, 2000.


                                       11
<PAGE>

         Millbrook's revenues increased $69.2 million or 12.9% as compared to
  the prior year. This increase is principally due to the following:

         (i)   distribution sales ($95.1 million) to new customer accounts
               gained as a result of the Epstein and Miller Buckeye
               acquisitions; partially offset by

         (ii)  decreased sales ($25.2 million) to certain customers as a result
               of several factors, including customer losses during the year,
               industry consolidation, significantly reduced customer
               promotional activities and customer financial difficulties, the
               aggregate of which exceeded the growth of sales to certain other
               customers.

         Manischewitz' revenues increased $7.4 million or 14.7% as compared to
  the prior year. This increase is principally due to sales of Season brand
  products acquired as part of the Epstein acquisition ($4.7 million) and sales
  to new customer accounts gained as a result of the Guiltless acquisition in
  November 2000 ($2.7 million).

         Gross Profit. Gross profit for the year ended March 31, 2001 was $162.8
million as compared to $138.2 million for the year ended March 31, 2000, an
increase of $24.6 million or 17.8%. As a percentage of revenues, the gross
profit margin was 25.0% for the year ended March 31, 2001 as compared to 23.8%
for the year ended March 31, 2000.

         The increase in gross profit dollars and its impact on gross profit
margin is primarily due to the following:

         (i)   distribution sales acquired as part of the Epstein acquisition
               and additional margin dollars associated with the favorable shift
               in Millbrook's product mix from lower margin health and beauty
               care products to higher margin specialty food products ($6.3
               million or 0.9%); and

         (ii)  distribution sales acquired as part of the Miller Buckeye
               acquisition ($17.6 million or 0.2%).

         Operating Expenses. Distribution and warehousing expenses for the year
ended March 31, 2001 were $59.8 million, as compared to $46.2 million for the
year ended March 31, 2000. As a percentage of revenues, distribution and
warehousing expenses increased to 9.2% for the year ended March 31, 2001 as
compared to 8.0% for the year ended March 31, 2000. The increase in distribution
and warehousing costs is principally due to:

         (i)   the addition of new distribution facilities in East Brunswick,
               New Jersey and Youngstown, Ohio as a result of the Epstein and
               Miller Buckeye acquisitions;

         (ii)  increased compensation and related employee benefit costs due to
               a tightening labor market and resulting labor shortages at
               Millbrook's two largest distribution center locations; and

         (iii) rising energy prices increased operating costs associated with
               the Companies' facilities and Millbrook's fleet.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended March
31, 2001 were $90.2 million, as compared to $73.0 million for the year ended
March 31, 2000. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased to 13.8% for the year ended March 31, 2001 as compared to
12.6% for the year ended March 31, 2000. This increase primarily consists of the
following:

         (i)   incremental selling, general and administrative costs associated
               with the Epstein ($3.0 million) and Miller Buckeye ($8.5 million)
               acquisitions;

         (ii)  costs associated with Millbrook's operations resulting from
               general increases in a number of areas, including management
               information systems and compensation and related employee
               benefits ($1.5 million) and the loss on impairment of assets held
               for sale ($0.4 million); and

         (iii) an increase of $1.6 million associated with Manischewitz'
               operations principally relating to television advertising,
               promotional materials and market research associated with certain
               mainstream products.

         Amortization of intangibles was $4.1 million for the year ended March
31, 2001 as compared to $3.1 million for the year ended March 31, 2000. This
increase is due to amortization resulting from the Epstein, Miller Buckeye and
Guiltless acquisitions.

         Interest Expense. Interest expense for the year ended March 31, 2001
was $20.4 million (consisting of $3.2 million for Holdings and $17.2 million for
Enterprises, respectively) as compared to $19.0 million (consisting of $3.1
million for Holdings and $15.9 million for Enterprises, respectively) for the
year ended March 31, 2000. The increase in interest expense is primarily
attributable to higher levels of debt outstanding under the credit agreement as
a result of its recent acquisitions, partially offset by Enterprises' repurchase
of 10.5% senior notes. The average interest rate on Holdings' and Enterprises'
debt outstanding during the year ended March 31, 2001 was 10.7% and 10.3%,
respectively.

         Taxes. For the year ended March 31, 2001, the benefit for income taxes
was $3.4 million and $2.1 million for Holdings and Enterprises, respectively, as
compared to a benefit of $1.1 million for Holdings and a provision of $0.3
million for Enterprises for the year ended March 31, 2000. The change of $2.3
million and $2.4 million for Holdings and Enterprises, respectively, principally
relates to the results of operations.

         Extraordinary Item - Early Extinguishment of Debt. The extraordinary
gain on early extinguishment of debt for the year ended March 31, 2001 was $3.2
million (net of income taxes of $2.1 million). This gain resulted from
Enterprises' repurchase of approximately $18.8 million of its outstanding 10.5%
senior notes. The extraordinary gain on early extinguishment of debt for the
year ended March 31, 2000 was $12.9 million (consisting of $8.2 million, net of
income taxes of $5.4 million for Holdings and $4.7 million, net of income taxes
of $3.1 million for Enterprises). This gain resulted from Holdings' repurchase
of $23.0 million of its outstanding 13% senior notes and Enterprises' repurchase
of approximately $20.9 million of its outstanding 10.5% senior notes.

         Net Income (Loss). As a result of the foregoing, the net loss for the
year ended March 31, 2001 was $5.0 million and $3.0 million for Holdings and
Enterprises, respectively, as compared to net income of $11.1 million for
Holdings and $4.5 million for Enterprises for the year ended March 31, 2000.

Year Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to the Year Ended March 31, 1999

         Revenues. Revenues for the year ended March 31, 2000 increased $72.3
million or 14.2% to $580.6 million as compared to $508.3 million for the year
ended March 31, 1999. Revenues include:

         (i)   Millbrook's sales of $537.9 million for the year ended March 31,
               2000 as compared to $464.8 million for the year ended March 31,
               1999;

         (ii)  Manischewitz' sales of $50.3 million for the year ended March 31,
               2000 as compared to $46.5 million for the year ended March 31,
               1999; and

         (iii) intersegment sales, which are eliminated in consolidation, of
               $7.6 million for the year ended March 31, 2000 as compared to
               $3.0 million for the year ended March 31, 1999.

         Millbrook's revenues increased $73.1 million or 15.7% as compared to
the prior year. This increase is principally due to the growth of sales to
existing customers and the addition of new customers.

         Manischewitz' revenues increased $3.8 million or 8.2% to $50.3 million
as compared to the eleven month period ended March 31, 1999. Had the comparable
pre-acquisition period been included in the period ended March 31, 1999,
Manischewitz' revenues would have increased $1.6 million or 3.4% for the year
ended March 31, 2000. This increase is principally due to:

         (i)   sales of Season brand products acquired as part of the Epstein
               acquisition since January 31, 2000 ($2.9 million); partially
               offset by

         (ii)  the negative impact on sales of customer account changes in
               Manischewitz' northeast distributor network, including the
               termination of its largest northeast distributor during the third
               quarter of fiscal 2000 ($1.3 million).

         Gross Profit. Gross profit for the year ended March 31, 2000 was $138.2
million as compared to $123.5 million for the year ended March 31, 1999, an
increase of $14.7 million or 11.9%. As a percentage of revenues, the gross
profit margin was 23.8% for the year ended March 31, 2000 as compared to 24.3%
for the year ended March 31, 1999.

         The increase in gross profit dollars and its impact on gross profit
margin is primarily due to the following:

         (i)   additional margin dollars associated with Millbrook's increased
               sales, partially offset by reduced margins within the health and
               beauty care and general merchandise categories of our
               distribution business due to sustained competitive pressures and
               lower gross margin sales due to the growth of Millbrook's
               non-serviced customer base as a percentage of its total customer
               base ($12.4 million or (0.3%));

         (ii)  distribution sales acquired as part of the Epstein acquisition
               since January 31, 2000 ($4.1 million or 0.1%);

         (iii) the lost gross profit margin on Manischewitz' sales (($0.5
               million) or (0.1%)). Had the comparable pre-acquisition period
               been included in the period ended March 31, 1999, Manischewitz'
               gross profit would have decreased $1.5 million and its gross
               profit margin would have decreased approximately 3.2%. This
               decline is principally due to the lower level of sales (excluding
               Season products) resulting in underabsorption of manufacturing
               overhead and a shift in product mix to lower margin products; and


                                       14
<PAGE>

         (iv)  the lost gross profit margin on lower third party service
               merchandising sales of Millbrook as its focus shifted to the
               transition and integration of new customer accounts (($1.4
               million) or (0.2%)).

         Operating Expenses. Distribution and warehousing expenses for the year
ended March 31, 2000 were $46.2 million, as compared to $38.8 million for the
year ended March 31, 1999. As a percentage of revenues, distribution and
warehousing expenses increased to 8.0% for the year ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to 7.6% for the year ended March 31, 1999. The increase in distribution
and warehousing costs is principally due to:

         (i)   the labor and transportation costs associated with the revenue
               increases generated by Millbrook's existing customers and the
               addition of new customers; and

         (ii)  the reconfiguration of certain of Millbrook's distribution
               facilities to accommodate the addition of new customers.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended March
31, 2000 were $73.0 million, as compared to $72.0 million for the year ended
March 31, 1999. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased to 12.6% for the year ended March 31, 2000 as compared to
14.2% for the year ended March 31, 1999. This dollar increase primarily consists
of:

         (i)   selling, general and administrative costs associated with the
               Epstein distribution operations acquired January 31, 2000 ($2.1
               million), partially offset by reduced costs of $1.7 million or
               (2.6%) associated with Millbrook's operations for the year ended
               March 31, 2000. This decrease primarily relates to reduced
               payroll and related costs associated with the growth of
               Millbrook's non-serviced customer base requiring lower overall
               headcount; and

         (ii)  an increase of $0.6 million or 10.1% in costs associated with
               Manischewitz' operations for the year ended March 31, 2000. Had
               the comparable pre-acquisition period been included in the period
               ended March 31, 1999, Manischewitz' selling, general and
               administrative expenses would have been consistent with the prior
               year.

         Amortization of intangibles was $3.1 million for the year ended March
31, 2000 as compared to $2.8 million for the year ended March 31, 1999. This
increase resulted from the comparable prior period including only eleven months
of amortization as Manischewitz was acquired on May 1, 1998 and amortization
resulting from the Epstein acquisition since January 31, 2000.

         Interest Expense. Interest expense for the year ended March 31, 2000
was $19.0 million (consisting of $3.1 million for Holdings and $15.9 million for
Enterprises, respectively) as compared to $20.0 million (consisting of $5.1
million for Holdings and $14.9 million for Enterprises, respectively) for the
year ended March 31, 1999. The decrease in interest expense is primarily
attributable to a lower weighted average interest rate on debt outstanding as a
result of Holdings' and Enterprises' repurchases of senior notes replacing such
debt with borrowings under the credit agreement. The average interest rate on
Holdings' and Enterprises' debt outstanding during the year ended March 31, 2000
was 11.1% and 10.7%, respectively.


                                       15
<PAGE>

         Taxes. For the year ended March 31, 2000, the benefit for income taxes
was $1.1 million for Holdings and the provision was $0.3 million for
Enterprises, as compared to a benefit of $3.2 million for Holdings and $1.4
million for Enterprises for the year ended March 31, 1999. The change of $2.1
million and $1.7 million for Holdings and Enterprises, respectively, principally
relates to the results of operations and the utilization of state net operating
loss carryforwards, which were subject to a valuation allowance in fiscal 1999.

         Extraordinary Item - Early Extinguishment of Debt. The extraordinary
gain on early extinguishment of debt for the year ended March 31, 2000 was $12.9
million (consisting of $8.2 million, net of income taxes of $5.4 million for
Holdings and $4.7 million, net of income taxes of $3.1 million for Enterprises).
This gain resulted from Holdings' repurchase of $23.0 million of its outstanding
13% senior notes and Enterprises' repurchase of approximately $20.9 million of
its outstanding 10.5% senior notes.

         Net Income. As a result of the foregoing, the net income for the year
ended March 31, 2000 was $11.1 million and $4.5 million for Holdings and
Enterprises, respectively, as compared to net loss of $6.9 million for Holdings
and $3.6 million for Enterprises for the year ended March 31, 1999.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Operations for the year ended March 31, 2001, excluding the net gain on
early extinguishment of debt, non-cash charges for depreciation, amortization
and deferred income taxes and other non-cash charges, provided cash of $2.3
million for Holdings and $4.3 million for Enterprises as compared to providing
cash of $11.7 million for Holdings and $11.4 million for Enterprises for the
year ended March 31, 2000. During the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, other
changes in assets and liabilities resulting from operating activities utilized
cash of $16.4 million for Holdings and $15.1 million for Enterprises and
utilized cash of $13.0 million for Holdings and $8.2 million for Enterprises,
respectively. This activity resulted in net cash utilized by operating
activities of $14.1 million for Holdings and $10.8 million for Enterprises in
fiscal 2001 as compared to net cash utilized by operations of $1.3 million for
Holdings and net cash provided by operating activities of $3.2 million for
Enterprises, respectively, in fiscal 2000. Investing activities, which
principally consisted of the acquisitions of Miller Buckeye and Guiltless in
fiscal 2001, the acquisition of Epstein in fiscal 2000 and the acquisitions of
plant and equipment, resulted in a use of cash of $25.0 million and $18.3
million for Holdings and Enterprises for each of the years ended March 31, 2001
and 2000. During the year ended March 31, 2001, financing activities, which
principally consisted of the repurchase of approximately $18.8 million of senior
notes for $13.0 million by Enterprises, offset by $3.3 million of payments from
the interest escrow account by Holdings; and additional borrowings of $53.7
million under the credit agreement by Holdings and Enterprises, provided cash of
$44.0 million for Holdings and $40.7 million for Enterprises. During the year
ended March 31, 2000, financing activities, which principally consisted of the
repurchase of $23.0 million of senior notes for $8.8 million by Holdings and
$20.9 million of senior notes for $12.2 million by Enterprises, offset by $10.2
million of payments from the interest escrow account by Holdings; additional
borrowings of $29.9 million under the credit agreement by Holdings and
Enterprises; and $3.0 million of proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock
by Holdings, provided cash of $22.2 million for Holdings and $17.6 million for
Enterprises.


                                       16

         At March 31, 2001, outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement
were $99.6 million, consisting of $95.0 million of revolving credit loans and an
amortizing term loan of $4.6 million. Under the terms of the credit agreement,
substantially all of Millbrook's assets and the accounts receivable and
inventory of Manischewitz are pledged to provide collateral for borrowings and
Enterprises is restricted from making distributions to Holdings to pay
dividends. At March 31, 2001, Millbrook and Manischewitz had approximately $9.5
million of cash and approximately $2.2 million of available borrowing capacity
under the credit agreement. In addition, there were $4.6 million of cumulative
unpaid dividends on Holdings' series A and series B preferred stock.

         Holdings and Enterprises expect capital expenditure spending for the
year ending March 31, 2002 to be approximately $3.0 million. Such expenditures
include, among other things, leasehold improvements and the acquisition of
computer equipment and software, manufacturing machinery and equipment. It is
anticipated that these capital commitments for 2002 will be financed through
working capital, operating leases and cash flow from operations.

         Given the continuing industry consolidation of retailers and its impact
on certain of our customers, Holdings and Enterprises anticipates some loss of
revenues in its health and beauty care category, which tends to be more of a
commodity nature, as acquirors seek to achieve consolidation synergies by
utilizing existing infrastructure. These anticipated losses will occur at the
same time that the Companies continue to implement their strategy of expanding
the specialty food category of their business. Holdings' and Enterprises'
results of operations will be dependent upon the obtaining and timing of
increased revenues from existing and new specialty food customers in light of
anticipated losses from health and beauty care. While Holdings and Enterprises
believe the transition to a greater percentage of its composite business to the
specialty food category can be accomplished by increasing revenues from existing
customers and obtaining new customers, there can be no assurance that Holdings
and Enterprises can accomplish the goals of their strategy.

         Interest payments on the senior notes and borrowings under the credit
agreement represent significant obligations of Holdings, Enterprises and their
subsidiaries. The primary source of liquidity of Holdings and Enterprises will
be cash flows from the operations of Millbrook and Manischewitz and borrowings
under the credit agreement. Subject to the preceding paragraph, Holdings and
Enterprises believe that, based upon current and anticipated financial
performance, asset sales, cash flows from operations and borrowings under the
credit agreement will be adequate to meet anticipated requirements for capital
expenditures, working capital and scheduled interest payments on the senior
notes. However, the capital requirements of Holdings and Enterprises may change.
The Companies are in compliance with the covenants contained in the credit
agreement and the indentures relating to the senior notes and expect to be able
to continue to comply. Each of Holdings and Enterprises believes that they have
sufficient borrowing capacity and access to private equity and debt markets to
pursue acquisition opportunities and fund extraordinary working capital
requirements, if necessary. However, there can be no assurance that capital will
be available to them on acceptable terms. At March 31, 2001, Holdings and
Enterprises had total outstanding indebtedness of $205.0 million and $180.0
million, respectively. The ability of Holdings and Enterprises to satisfy
capital requirements, to borrow under the credit agreement and to repay or
refinance the senior notes will depend on future financial performance of
Holdings and Enterprises, which in turn will be subject to general economic
conditions and to financial, business and other factors, including factors
beyond Holdings' and Enterprises' control.

Effects of Inflation and Other Matters

         For the year ended March 31, 2001, Holdings' and Enterprises' cost of
product remained relatively stable. To the extent possible, Holdings' and
Enterprises' objective is to offset the impact of inflation through productivity
enhancements, cost reductions and price increases.

         Holdings and Enterprises are not involved in any significant
environmental matters.

         Impact of New Accounting Pronouncements - SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" was issued in June, 1998 and is
effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 requires
the recognition of all derivatives in the consolidated balance sheet as either
assets or liabilities measured at fair value. We adopted SFAS No. 133, as
amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138, during the year ended March 31, 2001.
The adoption of SFAS No. 133 has not had a material impact on our financial
position or overall trends in results of operations and has not resulted in
significant changes to the financial risk management practices.

         Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 00-25 was finalized and
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. EITF No. 00-25
requires the reclassification of certain consideration paid to a reseller by a
vendor as a reduction of income on the vendor's income statement. The Company
will adopt EITF No. 00-25 when it becomes effective. The adoption of EITF No.
00-25 will not have a material impact on the Companies' overall trends in their
results of operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

         The foregoing discussion in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Result of Operations" contains "forward-looking"
statements. Additionally, written materials issued and oral statements made from
time to time by Holdings and Enterprises may contain forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate
strictly to historical or current facts and by their use of words such as
"goals", "expects", "plans", "believes", "estimates", "forecasts", "projects",
"intends" and other words of similar meaning. Execution of business and
acquisition strategies, expansion of product lines and increase of distribution
networks or product sales are areas, among others, whose future success may be
difficult to predict. They are based on management's then-current information,
assumptions, plans, expectations, estimates and projections regarding the food
and wholesale distribution industries. However, such statements are not
guarantees of future performance, and actual results and outcomes may differ
materially from what is expressed depending on a variety of factors, many of
which are outside of Holdings' and Enterprises' control.

         Among the factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ
materially from what is expressed in these forward-looking statements are
changes in the demand for, supply of, and market prices of Holdings' and
Enterprises' products, the financial condition of customers, the action of
current and potential new competitors, changes in technology and economic
conditions.

Item 7a. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

         Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact the
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of Holdings
and Enterprises due principally to adverse conditions in commodity market prices
and interest rate risk related to debt obligations outstanding. Holdings and
Enterprises do not use financial instruments or derivatives for any trading or
other speculative purposes.

         Holdings and Enterprises secure future commitments for certain
commodities based upon historical and projected consumption such that reasonable
possible near term changes in commodity prices would not result in a material
effect on future earnings, fair values or cash flows of Holdings and
Enterprises. Holdings and Enterprises manage interest rate risk through the
strategic use of fixed and variable rate debt.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Voting Agreement

         Mr. Bernstein is a party to a voting agreement with each of the holders
of the series A preferred stock and common stock of Holdings. Under the voting
agreement these stockholders agreed to vote all of their shares of series A
preferred stock and common stock as Mr. Bernstein directs or, if Mr. Bernstein
does not give direction, in a manner consistent with the manner in which he
votes his shares of series A preferred stock and common stock. The voting
agreement also provides that the stockholders shall execute any written consent
of holders of series A preferred stock or common stock as Mr. Bernstein directs
or, if Mr. Bernstein does not give direction, in a manner which is consistent
with his vote or written consent on the matter. Pursuant to the voting
agreement, the stockholders have agreed not to execute any other consent of
holders of series A preferred stock or common stock.

<PAGE>



         In the event that a stockholder fails to comply with the voting
provisions above, Mr. Bernstein holds a proxy to vote the stockholder's shares
or execute a written consent in any manner as he may determine in his
discretion. Under the voting agreement, Mr. Bernstein shall not be liable to any
stockholder or anyone making a claim under that stockholder as a result of any
vote or the exercise of any proxy by Mr. Bernstein. This is true even if that
vote or exercise of proxy adversely affects, or results in the decrease in the
value of, such stockholder's shares.

         The voting agreement shall terminate on the earliest of (i) the date a
stockholder, and that stockholder's heirs, personal representatives, donees and
trustees of any trusts in which that stockholder has an interest, during the
stockholder's life or when he or she dies, ceases to own any of the shares of
Holdings; (ii) the date on which the common stock of Holdings is listed or
admitted to trade on any national securities exchange or is quoted on the NASDAQ
system or similar means; and (iii) March 31, 2007.

Related Party Transactions

         At the time of the acquisition of Millbrook by Holdings and the
acquisition of Manischewitz by Enterprises, Millbrook and Manischewitz entered
into separate arrangements with P&E Properties, an entity of which Mr. Bernstein
is the sole shareholder. In these arrangements, Millbrook agreed to pay a
quarterly management fee of $100,000 and Millbrook and Manischewitz agreed to
reimburse P&E Properties for reasonable services and out-of-pocket and other
expenses incurred on Millbrook's and Manischewitz' behalf. These services
include among other things, treasury, cash management, certain financial
reporting, legal, labor and lease negotiation and employee benefits
administration. For the year ended March 31, 2001, P&E Properties was (i) paid
$400,000 in management fees by Millbrook; (ii) reimbursed $1,100,000 for
reasonable services provided to Millbrook; and (iii) reimbursed approximately
$510,000 for reasonable services provided to Manischewitz.

         Enterprises reimburses P&E Properties for personal services, including
executive services, rendered by certain of its executive officers. Mr. Bernstein
does not receive a salary from P&E Properties. Messrs. Grossman and Cohen
receive a salary from P&E Properties for executive services rendered to
Holdings, Enterprises, Millbrook and Manischewitz. The reasonable services
provided are based upon (i) the number of hours incurred at the applicable pay
rate; and (ii) out-of-pocket expenses, related to the services provided. In
addition, in fiscal 2001, Millbrook and Manischewitz reimbursed P&E Properties
approximately $111,000 and $12,000, respectively for use of an airplane owned by
P&E Properties. When commercial flights were reasonably available to the
destination, the reimbursement was determined at the rate of the normal first
class fare. When commercial flights were not available, the reimbursement amount
was equal to the hourly variable costs of the airplane multiplied by the number
of hours of use.

         In the opinion of management, these methodologies provided a reasonable
basis for such allocations. In addition, each of Holdings, Enterprises,
Millbrook and Manischewitz believe that the terms of the arrangement with P&E
Properties were no less favorable than could have been obtained from
unaffiliated third parties on an arm's length basis.

         At March 31, 2001, Michael P. Schall, the Chief Executive Officer and
President of Manischewitz, had an outstanding loan with Holdings in the amount
of $62,500 related to the acquisition of his equity interest in Holdings.

Shareholders Agreements

         Each employee of Millbrook or Manischewitz who owns shares of the
common stock of Holdings is a party to a shareholders agreement with Holdings.
These agreements prohibit transfer of such shares other than to a member of the
employee shareholder's immediate family or a trustee of a trust for the benefit
of the employee shareholder or his immediate family. In the event of the
termination of such employee, Holdings has the option or obligation, under
certain circumstances, to purchase all the employee shareholder's shares at
prices not greater than their fair market value.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
R.A.B. Holdings, Inc.
New York, New York

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of
R.A.B. Enterprises, Inc.
New York, New York

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements and financial
statement schedules of R.A.B. Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries and R.A.B.
Enterprises, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of R.A.B. Holdings, Inc.) and
subsidiaries listed in the foregoing index. These financial statements and
financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the companies'
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial
statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial positions of R.A.B. Holdings, Inc. and
subsidiaries and R.A.B. Enterprises, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2001
and 2000, and the results of their operations and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended March 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our
opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the
basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

1.   Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

         The Summary of Significant Accounting Policies below and the other
     notes to the consolidated financial statements on the following pages are
     integral parts of the accompanying consolidated financial statements of
     R.A.B. Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings") and R.A.B. Enterprises, Inc.
     ("Enterprises"), its direct wholly-owned subsidiary (the "Consolidated
     Financial Statements"). Holdings is a holding company with no substantial
     assets or operations other than its investment in Enterprises. Enterprises
     is a holding company with no substantial assets or operations other than
     its investments in Millbrook Distribution Services Inc. ("Millbrook") and
     The B. Manischewitz Company, LLC ("Manischewitz").

         Millbrook is one of the nation's largest independent value-added
     distributors of health and beauty care, general merchandise and specialty
     food products. Manischewitz manufactures processed kosher and other ethnic
     foods including, among others, matzos, cake mixes, cookies, soups, noodles
     and processed fish products and also licenses its name to third parties for
     which it receives royalties. Holdings and Enterprises are referred to
     collectively as the "Companies".

         Principles of Consolidation - The Consolidated Financial Statements
     include the accounts of the Companies and their subsidiaries. All
     significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in
     consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year
     financial statements to conform with the current year presentation.

         Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements, in
     conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires
     management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
     amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and
     liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported
     amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
     results could differ from these estimates.

         Concentration of Credit Risk - Trade accounts receivable potentially
     subject the Companies to credit risk. The Companies extend credit to their
     customers, principally in the U.S. supermarket industry, based upon an
     evaluation of the customer's financial condition and credit history and
     generally do not require collateral. The Companies' allowances for doubtful
     accounts are based upon the expected collectability of trade accounts
     receivable.

         Fiscal Year - The Companies' fiscal years end on March 31.

         Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.
     Cost is determined by the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method. At March 31,
     2001 and 2000, the replacement cost of inventories valued using the LIFO
     method exceeded the net carrying amount of such inventories by
     approximately $1,668,000 and $999,000, respectively. For the year ended
     March 31, 2000, the liquidation of certain LIFO layers decreased costs of
     products sold by approximately $250,000.

         Marketable Securities - Marketable securities held by the Companies are
     classified as available-for-sale. The aggregate excess of fair value over
     cost, net of related income taxes is included as a separate component of
     stockholders' equity.

1.   Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

         Property, Plant and Equipment - Property, plant and equipment are
     recorded at cost. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is
     provided on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful
     lives:

              Buildings and improvements.....................   5- 35 years
              Machinery and equipment........................   2- 15 years
              Rolling stock..................................   3- 8  years

         Expenditures which significantly increase value or extend useful lives
     are capitalized, while ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed as
     incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets replaced,
     retired or disposed of are removed from the accounts and any related gains
     or losses are reflected in operations.

         Intangibles - Intangibles, which include trademarks, trade names,
     distributorship and trademark license agreements and the excess of cost
     over net assets acquired, are amortized on a straight-line basis over their
     estimated useful lives ranging from 4 to 40 years.

         Long-Lived Assets - The Companies review their long-lived assets and
     related intangibles for impairment whenever changes in circumstances
     indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable.
     Such changes in circumstances may include, among other factors, a
     significant change in technology that may render an asset obsolete or
     noncompetitive or a significant change in the extent or manner in which an
     asset is used. The assessment for potential impairment is based upon the
     Companies' abilities to recover the unamortized balance of their long-lived
     assets from expected future cash flows on an undiscounted basis (without
     interest charges). If such expected future cash flows are less than the
     carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recorded.

         Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized when products are shipped
     or services are provided to customers. Provisions for returns and
     allowances and bad debts are based upon historical experience and known
     events.

         Royalty Income - The Companies have licensing agreements under which
     they receive royalty payments. Royalty payments due under licensing
     agreements are recognized as income either based upon shipment reports from
     manufacturers, where available, or estimated shipments by such
     manufacturers.

         Income Taxes - Deferred income taxes result primarily from temporary
     differences between financial and tax reporting and acquisition basis
     differences.

         Comprehensive (Loss) Income - For the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000
     and 1999, Holdings' and Enterprises' comprehensive (loss) income was
     ($6,099,000) and ($4,130,000), respectively, $11,084,000 and $4,525,000
     respectively, and ($6,782,000) and ($3,486,000), respectively.

1.   Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

         Accounting Pronouncements - Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
     ("SFAS") No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
     Activities" was issued in June 1998 and is effective for fiscal years
     beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 requires the recognition of all
     derivatives in the consolidated balance sheet as either assets or
     liabilities measured at fair value. The Companies adopted SFAS No. 133, as
     amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138, during the year ended March 31,
     2001. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 has not had a material impact on the
     Companies' financial position or overall trends in results of operations
     and has not resulted in significant changes to its financial risk
     management practices.

         Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 00-25 was finalized and
     is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. EITF No.
     00-25 requires the reclassification of certain consideration paid to a
     reseller by a vendor as a reduction of income on the vendor's income
     statement. The Company will adopt EITF No. 00-25 when it becomes effective.
     The adoption of EITF No. 00-25 will not have a material impact on the
     Companies' overall trends in results of operations.

2.   Formation And Acquisition

         On May 6, 1996, Holdings, a Delaware corporation, was formed. On March
     31, 1997, Holdings acquired Millbrook for a purchase price of approximately
     $67 million, including transaction costs. Holdings had no operations prior
     to April 1, 1997. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and,
     accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets and liabilities
     of Millbrook based upon their fair values at the date of acquisition. The
     fair values of assets acquired (approximately $129 million) and liabilities
     assumed (approximately $53 million) were based upon third party appraisals
     and other valuation analyses. The fair value of the net assets acquired
     exceeded the purchase price by approximately $9 million. The resulting
     negative goodwill reduced the fair value assigned to Millbrook's property,
     plant and equipment.

         On January 26, 1998, Holdings formed Enterprises, a wholly-owned
     subsidiary and Delaware corporation. Effective March 3, 1998, Enterprises
     entered into a purchase agreement with MANO Holdings I, LLC, KBMC
     Acquisition Company, L.P., MANO Holdings Corporation ("MANO") and the
     stockholders of MANO to acquire all of the outstanding membership interests
     of Manischewitz. On May 1, 1998, Enterprises acquired all of the
     outstanding interests of Manischewitz for approximately $126.2 million
     through the issuance of $120 million Senior Notes due 2005 bearing interest
     at 10.5% ("10.5% Notes") and the issuance by Holdings of $48 million Senior
     Notes due 2008 bearing interest at 13% ("13% Notes"). The 10.5% Notes are
     fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by
     Millbrook and Manischewitz. Accordingly, as the combined financial
     statements of the subsidiaries guaranteeing the 10.5% Notes (the Companies'
     only consequential subsidiaries) are substantially equivalent to the
     consolidated financial statements of Enterprises, no separate financial
     statements of Millbrook and Manischewitz are presented since management has
     determined that such information is not material to investors.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)



2.   Formation And Acquisition (Continued)

         The 13% Notes pay interest for the first three years, semi-annually,
     from an interest escrow account which was established upon their issuance.
     The interest escrow account consists of treasury securities which have been
     accounted for as held-to-maturity and are classified on the consolidated
     balance sheets as Restricted investments. These Restricted investments,
     which mature November 1 and May 1 during each of the first three years the
     13% Notes are outstanding, may only be used to pay the semi-annual interest
     due.

         The acquisition of Manischewitz was accounted for as a purchase and,
     accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets and liabilities
     of Manischewitz based upon their fair values at the date of acquisition.
     The fair values of assets acquired, including identified intangibles
     (approximately $126 million), and liabilities assumed (approximately $70
     million) were based upon third party appraisals and other valuation
     analyses. The purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets
     acquired by approximately $56 million. The consolidated statements of
     operations include the operating results of Manischewitz since its date of
     acquisition. Concurrent with the Manischewitz acquisition, Holdings
     contributed its wholly-owned subsidiary Millbrook to Enterprises. This
     contribution was accounted for as an "as if" pooling of interests.

         The pro forma consolidated historical results, as if the Manischewitz
     business had been acquired at the beginning of each of the periods
     presented, are as follows (in thousands):


         For the year ended March 31,                            1999

         Net Loss                                        $ (7,772)    $ (4,176)


         On January 31, 2000, Millbrook acquired certain of the assets and
     operations of I. Epstein & Sons, Inc. ("Epstein") for a purchase price of
     approximately $15.4 million, including transaction costs. Epstein was a
     full service distributor of kosher and specialty food products, including
     its Season brand of canned fish, vegetables and other specialty food
     products. Concurrent with the acquisition, the management and ownership of
     the Season brand was assumed by the Companies' Manischewitz subsidiary.

         The acquisition of Epstein was accounted for as a purchase and,
     accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets and liabilities
     of Epstein based upon their fair values at the date of acquisition. The
     fair value of the assets acquired (approximately $17 million) and
     liabilities assumed (approximately $2 million) were based upon third party
     appraisals and other valuation analyses. The purchase price exceeded the
     fair value of the net assets acquired by approximately $7 million which is
     being amortized over 25 years. The consolidated statements of operations
     include the operating results of Epstein since its date of acquisition. Pro
     forma historical operating results have not been included as the impact of
     the acquisition was not considered significant on a consolidated basis.

2.   Formation And Acquisition (Continued)

         On April 17, 2000, Millbrook acquired substantially all of the assets
     and operations of the Miller Buckeye Biscuit Company, Inc. ("Miller
     Buckeye") for a purchase price of approximately $17.6 million, including
     transaction costs. Miller Buckeye was a distributor of specialty foods,
     cookies, crackers and snacks to retail grocery and other retail
     establishments in Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Western New York.

         The acquisition of Miller Buckeye was accounted for as a purchase and,
     accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets and liabilities
     of Miller Buckeye based upon their fair values at the date of acquisition.
     The fair value of the assets acquired (approximately $29 million) and
     liabilities assumed (approximately $11 million) were based upon third party
     appraisals and other valuation analyses. The purchase price exceeded the
     fair value of the net assets acquired by approximately $14 million which is
     being amortized over 20 years. The consolidated statements of operations
     include the operating results of Miller Buckeye since its date of
     acquisition. Pro forma historical operating results have not been included
     as the impact of the acquisition was not considered significant on a
     consolidated basis.

         The liabilities assumed in the Epstein and Miller Buckeye acquisitions
     include a $1.7 million provision for minor restructurings of their
     respective operations as a result of these acquisitions. These liabilities
     are principally comprised of a portion of future lease payments. As of
     March 31, 2001 and 2000, the balance of this provision of approximately
     $1.3 million and $900,000 respectively, has been included as a component of
     Other Current Liabilities and Other Liabilities on the Companies' balance
     sheets.

         On November 1, 2000, Manischewitz acquired substantially all of the
     assets and operations of Guiltless Gourmet, Inc. ("Guiltless") for a
     purchase price of approximate $4.9 million, including transaction costs.
     Guiltless owned the second largest selling national brand and was a leader
     in the development of baked tortilla chips.

         The acquisition of Guiltless was accounted for as a purchase and,
     accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets and liabilities
     of Guiltless based upon their fair values at the date of acquisition. The
     fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (approximately $5
     million) were based upon third party appraisals and other valuation
     analyses. The purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net assets
     acquired by approximately $4 million which is being amortized over 25
     years. The consolidated statements of operations include the operating
     results of Guiltless since its date of acquisition. Pro forma historical
     operating results have not been included as the impact of the acquisition
     was not considered significant on a consolidated basis.

9.   Long-term Debt (Continued)

         Millbrook and Manischewitz have a credit agreement with a group of
     commercial lending institutions providing for a credit facility in the
     aggregate amount of $109.6 million consisting of revolving credit loans up
     to $105 million and an amortizing term loan of $4.6 million (the "Credit
     Agreement"). Borrowings under this long-term facility, which expires March
     31, 2003, are supported by specified assets in accordance with a borrowing
     base formula, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Credit
     Agreement requires the maintenance of a minimum level of cash flow, as
     defined and imposes restrictions on investments, capital expenditures, cash
     dividends, management fees and advances to the parent and other
     indebtedness. At March 31, 2001, substantially all of the assets of
     Enterprises' subsidiaries are unavailable for dividends. At March 31, 2001,
     Millbrook and Manischewitz had available, under the Credit Agreement,
     unused borrowing capacity of approximately $2.2 million, net of outstanding
     letters of credit of approximately $2.6 million. The Credit Agreement is
     secured by Millbrook's and Manischewitz' accounts receivable and
     inventories and Enterprises' pledge of Millbrook's stock.

         Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at either the
     London interbank offered ("LIBO") rate plus a margin or the bank's
     alternate base rate plus a margin (up to 3.25%). The margin, which ranged
     from 1.50% to 2.25% during the year ended March 31, 2001, is based upon
     availability pursuant to the borrowing base calculation. At March 31, 2001
     and 2000, borrowings under the LIBO option were $99,633,000 and
     $45,939,000, respectively. At March 31, 2001, the interest rate on the
     outstanding LIBO loans ranged from 6.96% to 7.35%. In addition, Millbrook
     had a three-year interest rate protection agreement that effectively capped
     rates on a notional principal amount up to $50 million of borrowings at a
     LIBO rate of 7.625% through April 30, 2000 as required by the Credit
     Agreement to manage interest rate exposure to market fluctuations. The
     Companies (i) do not engage in derivative activity for trading or
     speculative purposes; (ii) periodically evaluate the financial position of
     the counterparty; and (iii) do not expect non-performance by the
     counterparty. At March 31, 2001, Millbrook's and Manischewitz' outstanding
     debt under the Credit Agreement approximates fair value. At March 31, 2001
     and 2000, the fair value of Holdings' 13% Notes was $15.0 million and $12.5
     million, respectively. At March 31, 2000 and 2001, the fair value of
     Enterprises' 10.5% Notes was $56.2 million and $67.4 million, respectively.

     approximately $18.8 million and $20.9 million of its outstanding 10.5%
     Notes resulting in a gain of approximately $3.2 million and $4.7 million,
     net of income taxes of approximately $2.1 million and $3.1 million,
     respectively. In addition, the stockholders of Holdings purchased $3.0
     million of additional preferred stock to partially fund Holdings'
     repurchase of $23.0 million of its outstanding 13% Notes resulting in a
     gain of approximately $8.2 million, net of income taxes of approximately
     $5.4 million. These transactions were recorded as extraordinary items.

10.  Stockholders' Equity

         In conjunction with its acquisition of Millbrook in 1997, Holdings sold
     20,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at $500 per share and 100,000
     shares of Common Stock at $1.00 per share. During the year ended March 31,
     2000, Holdings sold an additional 5,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
     at $500 per share and 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $500 per
     share.

         The holders of the Series A and B Preferred Stock are entitled to
     cumulative preferential cash dividends of $50 per year (10%), per share. At
     March 31, 2001, the amount of accumulated unpaid dividends per share on the
     Series A Preferred Stock was $200 for shares issued in 1997 and $100 for
     each of the Series A and B Preferred Stock issued in 1999. Unless all
     accumulated and unpaid dividends on the Series A and B Preferred Stock are
     paid, no dividends shall be declared or paid on Holdings' Common Stock. The
     Series A and B Preferred Stock are each subject to an optional redemption
     by Holdings at any time, in whole or in part, at the redemption price per
     share of $500 plus an amount equal to all accumulated and unpaid dividends.

         Capital lease obligations have been included as a component of Other
     Current Liabilities and Other Liabilities on the Companies' balance sheets.
     Interest rates on capital lease obligations vary from 9.0% to 13.3%. The
     net carrying amount of assets under capital leases at March 31, 2001 were
     approximately $288,000.

         Total rent expense for all operating leases was $8.9 million, $5.7
     million and $4.9 million for the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000, and
     1999, respectively.

     Commitments

         At March 31, 2001 and 2000, Manischewitz had approximately $0.9 million
     and $1.2 million, respectively, of purchase commitments with certain
     vendors.

     Contingencies

         The Companies are subject to pending claims and legal proceedings in
     the normal course of their business. While it is not feasible to predict or
     determine the outcome of these claims and proceedings, it is the opinion of
     management that their outcome, to the extent not provided for through
     insurance or otherwise, will not have a materially adverse effect on the
     Companies' financial position or future results of operations.

     For state income tax purposes, Holdings had a $200,000 consolidated net
     operating loss carryforward and Enterprises had no consolidated net
     operating loss carryforward as of March 31, 2001.

         At March 31, 2000, Holdings and Enterprises had no consolidated net
     operating loss carryforwards for Federal or state income tax purposes as
     these carryforwards were utilized to partially offset the gain on early
     extinguishment of debt. In addition, the valuation allowances established
     during the year ended March 31, 1999 were reversed due to the gain on early
     extinguishment of debt at Holdings and Enterprises.

13.  Employee Benefit Plans

     Retirement and Savings Plan

         The Companies have a retirement and savings plan ("401(k) Plan")
     covering substantially all of their employees. The 401(k) Plan provides for
     matching contributions by the Companies. In addition, the Companies may
     make annual discretionary contributions to employee accounts based, in
     part, on the Companies' financial performance. For each of the years ended
     March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Companies' provided approximately $2.0
     million, $1.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively, for matching and
     discretionary contributions.

     Deferred Compensation

         Deferred compensation principally relates to a compensation arrangement
     implemented in 1984 by a predecessor of Millbrook in the form of a
     non-qualified defined benefit plan and a supplemental retirement plan which
     permitted former officers and certain management employees, at the time, to
     defer portions of their compensation and to earn specified maximum benefits
     upon retirement. The future benefit obligations, which are fixed in
     accordance with the plan, have been recorded at a discount rate of 8%.
     These plans do not allow new participants.

         In an effort to provide for the benefits associated with these plans,
     Millbrook's predecessor purchased whole-life insurance contracts on the
     plan participants. The value of these policies is included in Other Assets.
     At March 31, 2001, future payment obligations, assuming commencement of
     payments at an individual's retirement age, as defined under the deferred
     compensation arrangement were approximately $472,000, $683,000, $709,000,
     $769,000 and $913,000 for the years ending March 31, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005
     and 2006, respectively.

     remain at that level thereafter.

14.  Related Party Transactions

         Concurrent with Millbrook's acquisition by Holdings, Millbrook entered
     into an arrangement with an entity owned by the controlling shareholder of
     Holdings whereby Millbrook agreed (i) to pay a quarterly management fee of
     $100,000; and (ii) to reimburse the entity for reasonable services provided
     and out-of-pocket and other expenses incurred on its behalf. Concurrent
     with Manischewitz' acquisition by Enterprises, Manischewitz entered into an
     arrangement with the entity owned by the controlling shareholder of
     Holdings whereby Manischewitz agreed to reimburse the entity for reasonable
     services provided and out-of-pocket and other expenses incurred on its
     behalf. The services provided under both arrangements include, among other
     things, treasury, cash management, certain financial reporting, legal,
     labor and lease negotiation and employee benefits administration. For each
     of the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, Millbrook paid $400,000
     for management fees and $1,100,000, $875,000 and $800,000 respectively, for
     reasonable services provided by this entity pursuant to its aforementioned
     arrangement. For the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 and the period
     ended March 31, 1999, Manischewitz paid approximately $510,000, $428,000
     and $150,000, respectively, for reasonable services provided by this entity
     pursuant to its aforementioned arrangement. The reasonable services
     provided under each of these arrangements are based upon (i) the number of
     hours incurred at the applicable pay rate; and (ii) out-of-pocket expenses,
     related to the services provided.

         In addition, during the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, Millbrook
     reimbursed the aforementioned entity approximately $111,000 and $97,000,
     respectively, and Manischewitz reimbursed the aforementioned entity
     approximately $12,000 and $16,000, respectively, for use of its airplane.
     When commercial flights were available to the destination, the
     reimbursement was determined at the rate of the normal first class fare.
     When commercial flights were not available, the reimbursement amount was
     equal to the hourly variable costs of the airplane multiplied by the number
     of hours of use.

         In the opinion of management, these methodologies provided a reasonable
     basis for such allocations. In addition, the Companies believe that the
     terms of the arrangement with this entity were no less favorable than could
     have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties on an arm's length
     basis.

15.  Segment Reporting

         SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
     Information", established standards for reporting information about
     operating segments in financial statements. Operating segments are defined
     as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information
     is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision
     maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and
     in assessing performance. The Companies' chief decision-maker is its
     Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

15.  Segment Reporting (Continued)

         The Companies' reportable operating segments are Millbrook and
     Manischewitz. The operating segments are managed separately as each
     operating segment represents a strategic business entity. The accounting
     policies of these operating segments are the same as those described in the
     Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies except that the disaggregated
     financial results have been prepared using a management approach, which is
     consistent with the basis and manner in which each company's management
     internally disaggregates financial information for the purposes of
     assisting in making internal operating decisions. The Companies evaluate
     performance based on each business entity's stand-alone operating income
     before depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of
     intangibles, non-recurring items, corporate charges, including certain bad
     debt and profit sharing costs, management fees and services provided to the
     operating segments by an entity owned by Holdings' majority stockholder.
     Intersegment sales are generally accounted for as sales to third parties.
