Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration In the transaction which is the subject of this report, Mr. Saker acquired 21,500 shares in a private purchase and sale, evidenced by the Purchase and Sale Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A. The total consideration paid for the shares purchased by Mr. Saker is $494,500, which reflects a purchase price of $23.00 per share. Of the total purchase price, $225,000 represents the proceeds of a loan from Merrill Lynch, which loan is secured by shares of Foodarama Supermarkets, Inc. common stock owned by Mr. Saker. The balance of the purchase price, or $269,500, represents the proceeds of a personal, unsecured loan from Mr. Saker's mother. The aggregate amount of shares beneficially owned by Mr. Saker includes options to purchase 15,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, which have vested or will vest within 60 days of the date of this report. Item 4. Purpose of Transactions This transaction was undertaken for investment purposes. In its Preliminary Proxy Statement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 10, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company, of which Mr. Saker is a member, proposed an amendment to the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation dated May 15, 1970, as amended by Certificates of Amendment dated October 17, 1986, May 12, 1987, February 16, 1993, May 20, 1996, and May 14, 2002 (collectively, the "Certificate of Incorporation"), to provide for the elimination of the Company's classified Board of Directors subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions relating to the settlement of a lawsuit initiated against the Company as a nominal defendant and certain officers and directors of the Company, including Mr. Saker. Adoption of the proposed amendment requires the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the votes cast at the annual meeting by holders of Common Stock. Other than the proposal described above in this Item 4, Mr. Saker has not formulated any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (d) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board; (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company; (f) any other material change in the Company's business or corporate structure; (g) changes in the Company's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the issuer by any person; (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) causing a class of equity securities of the Company to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act, as amended, or (i) any action similar to those enumerated above. 5 Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Company (a) The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr.Saker as of the date of this Schedule 13D is 215,803 shares, or approximately 21.5% of the class of securities identified in Item 1 based on 986,867 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 13, 2003. This amount includes 1,760 shares held by Richard J. Saker's wife and 1,377 shares which are held in a trust for Mr. Saker's son, of which Mr. Saker is the trustee. Mr. Saker disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares described in the preceding sentence. This amount also includes 85,000 shares held by the Joseph Saker Family Partnership, L.P. (the "Partnership"), of which the Saker Family Corporation is the sole general partner (the "General Partner"). Richard J. Saker owns 40% of the outstanding capital stock of the General Partner, and each of Joseph J. Saker, Jr. and Thomas A. Saker owns 30% of the outstanding capital stock of the General Partner. The General Partner owns a 1% interest in the Partnership and has the sole power to vote for the sale, transfer or other disposition of the shares of Foodarama Common Stock only upon the unanimous consent of all shareholders of the General Partner. On other matters not involving the sale, transfer or other disposition of such shares, the shares of Foodarama Common Stock held by the Partnership are voted as directed by the individual shareholders of the General Partner in accordance with their respective ownership interests in the General Partner. Accordingly, the General Partner votes 34,000 shares as directed by Richard J. Saker on such other matters. In addition to his ownership interests in the General Partner, Richard J. Saker, Joseph J. Saker, Jr. and Thomas A. Saker are the beneficiaries of the trust which owns a 99% interest in the Partnership (the "Limited Partner"). Thus, each of Richard J. Saker, Joseph J. Saker, Jr. and Thomas A. Saker also has an indirect interest in the Foodarama Common Stock held by the Partnership by reason of their respective beneficial interests in the Limited Partner. Their beneficial interests in the Limited Partner are in identical proportion to their ownership interests in the General Partner. Richard J. Saker disclaims beneficial ownership of shares held by the Limited Partner in excess of his pecuniary interest therein. Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Saker also include 15,000 shares subject to currently exercisable options or options exercisable within sixty days of February 13, 2003 granted pursuant to the Company's 2001 Stock Incentive Plan. (b) The number of shares of Common Stock as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or direct the disposition, for the Reporting Person is set forth in the cover page and such information is incorporated herein by reference. (c) Except as set forth in Item 3 and this Item 5 above, Mr. Saker has had no transactions in the class of securities reported herein during the past 60 days. (d) Not applicable. (e) Not applicable. 6 Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to the Securities of the Issuer Each of Mr. Saker's wife and the trust that holds shares for the benefit of Mr. Saker's son intend to designate Messrs. Joseph J. Saker, Sr. and Richard J. Saker as their proxy for the purpose of voting their shares at the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on April 30, 2003. In addition, Mr. Saker intends to direct the corporate general partner of the Partnership to designate Messrs. Joseph J. Saker, Sr. and Richard J. Saker as its proxy for the purpose of voting 34,000 of the Partnership's shares at the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on April 30, 2003. Article V Section 3 of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Saker Family Corporation requires the unanimous approval of its shareholders, namely Richard J. Saker, Joseph J. Saker, Jr., and Thomas A. Saker, for directing the Saker Family Corporation, in its capacity as general partner of the Partnership, to approve the transfer or other disposition of the shares of the Company's Common Stock held by the Partnership, or to vote in favor of the consolidation, merger or other reorganization of the Company, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets.
