TOPS HOLDING II CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. THE COMPANY, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company

Tops Holding II Corporation (“Holding II,” or collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), the parent of Tops Holding LLC (“Holding I”), formerly Tops Holding Corporation, was incorporated on May 7, 2013. Holding I is the parent of Tops Markets, LLC (“Tops Markets”), a supermarket retailer with supermarkets in Upstate New York, Northern Pennsylvania and Vermont. As of April 18, 2015, the Company operated 158 supermarkets, 157 under the Tops banner and one under the Orchard Fresh banner, with an additional five supermarkets operated by franchisees. Holding II has no business operations other than the ownership of Holding I and as the issuer of the Holding II Notes (see Note 6).

Holding II is the reporting entity for the Holding I Notes and Holding II Notes (see Note 6). Tops MBO Corporation (“Tops MBO Co”), the parent Company of Holding II, is neither a co-issuer nor guarantor of these notes. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared for Holding II and exclude the assets and results of operations of Tops MBO Co. Tops MBO Co’s assets consist solely of its investment in Holding II. Tops MBO Co has no operations other than as the equity owner of Holding II.

Accounting Policies

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements of Holding II for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014, which appear in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2015.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

The Company operates on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 30. Fiscal years include 13 four-week reporting periods, with an additional week in the thirteenth reporting period for 53-week fiscal years. The first quarter of each fiscal year includes four reporting periods, while the remaining quarters include three reporting periods.

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of financial position and results of operations for such periods.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” ASU No. 2014-08 changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. The new guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The Company elected early adoption and there was no material impact to its consolidated financial statements as of April 18, 2015 and December 27, 2014.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU No. 2014-09’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU No. 2014-09 on its financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,” which amended ASC 835 Subtopic 30 - Interest - Imputation of Interest to require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. This guidance will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-04, “Practical Expedient for the Measurement Date of an Employer’s Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets,” which amended Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 715 - Compensation - Retirement Benefits to permit entities with a fiscal year-end that does not coincide with a calendar month-end the ability to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the calendar month-end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year-end and apply that measurement date consistently from year to year. This guidance will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect of adoption on its the consolidated financial statements.

Segments

The Company’s supermarkets offer grocery, produce, frozen, dairy, meat, floral, seafood, health and beauty care, general merchandise, deli and bakery goods. The Company operates one supermarket format where each supermarket offers the same general mix of products with similar pricing to similar categories of customers. As of April 18, 2015, 49 corporate supermarkets offered pharmacy services and 51 corporate fuel centers were in operation. As of April 19, 2014, 76 corporate supermarkets offered pharmacy services and 48 corporate fuel centers were in operation. The Company’s retail operations, which represent substantially all of the Company’s consolidated sales, earnings and total assets, are its only operating segment and reportable segment. The Company’s retail operations as a whole reflect the level at which the business is managed and how the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who acts as the Company’s chief operating decision maker, assesses performance internally.

The following table presents sales revenue by type of similar product (dollars in thousands):

	16-week periods ended
	April 18, 2015					April 19, 2014
	Amount		% of Total			Amount		% of Total
Non-perishables(1)	$	412,980		57.1	%	$	424,428		56.1	%
Perishables(2)		211,755		29.3	%		207,151		27.4	%
Fuel		46,154		6.4	%		68,083		9.0	%
Pharmacy		45,235		6.3	%		50,109		6.6	%

	$	722,850		100.0	%	$	756,539		100.0	%

(1) Non-perishables consist of grocery, dairy, frozen, general merchandise, health and beauty care and other non-perishable related products.

(2) Perishables consist of produce, meat, seafood, bakery, deli, floral, prepared foods and other perishable related products.

(3) Other primarily consists of franchise income and service commission income, such as lottery, money orders and money transfers.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. The most significant estimates used by management are related to the accounting for vendor allowances, valuation of long-lived assets including goodwill and intangible assets, acquisition accounting, lease classification, self-insurance reserves, inventory valuation and income taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” establish a framework for measuring fair value and a hierarchy that categorizes and prioritizes the sources to be used to estimate fair value as follows:

Level 1 – observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2 – inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs); and

Level 3 – unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s determination of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are developed based on the best information available, including the Company’s own data.

- 5 -

Financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. At April 18, 2015 and December 27, 2014, the carrying value and the estimated fair value of the Company’s debt instruments were as follows (dollars in thousands):

	April 18, 2015		December 27, 2014
Carrying value of long-term debt:
Current portion of long-term debt	$	2,010	$	1,983
Long-term debt		641,539		664,130
Total carrying value of long-term debt (Note 6)		643,549		666,113
Fair value of long-term debt		667,966		671,338
Excess of fair value over carrying value	$	24,417	$	5,225

The fair values of the Holding I Notes and Holding II Notes (see Note 6), which are included in long-term debt, were based on quoted market prices, a Level 2 source.

Fair value measurements of non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities are primarily used in the impairment analysis of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets. Long-lived assets and definite-lived intangible assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using Level 3 inputs. Goodwill and the Tops tradename are reviewed annually for impairment on December 1, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise.

2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

On December 1, 2013, Tops MBO Co consummated the purchase of substantially all of the common stock of Holding II (the “Management Purchase”) from Morgan Stanley Private Equity and other stockholders of Holdings II (the “Sellers”). As a result of the Management Purchase, primarily through their ownership of Tops MBO Co, members of management now beneficially own all of the outstanding common stock of Holding II. Accordingly, the Company was required to apply “push down” accounting, with the results of the Management Purchase reflected in Holding II’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The application of “push down” accounting has resulted in a new basis of accounting in which the total purchase price paid by Tops MBO Co has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using estimates of their fair values under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations”. In addition to the cash consideration of $20.9 million paid to the Sellers, the Company incurred $15.8 million of transaction fees during late 2013 in connection with the Management Purchase. Transaction fees of $0.6 million were paid during the 4-week period ended December 28, 2013, $15.0 million of transaction fees were paid during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014, and the remaining $0.2 million were paid during the 12-week period ended July 12, 2014.

As disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014, which appear in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2015, the purchase price allocation for the Management Purchase was finalized during the fourth quarter of 2014. Previously reported results have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the finalization of the acquisition date fair values of property and equipment and intangible assets. This finalization resulted in reductions of depreciation and amortization expense of $4.4 million during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014. The finalization also resulted in the increase of income tax benefit of $1.6 million during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014. The combined impact of the depreciation and amortization expense and income tax benefit adjustments resulted in a $6.0 million reduction in the Company’s net loss during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014.

3. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

The following table summarizes the change in the Company’s goodwill balance during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 (dollars in thousands):

- 7 -

During the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014, amortization expense related to intangible assets was $3.5 million and $4.0 million, respectively. This amortization is included in depreciation and amortization in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

The Company has a number of capital leases in effect for supermarket properties and equipment. The initial lease terms generally range up to twenty-five years and will expire at various times through 2035, with options to renew for additional periods.

The Company entered into build-to-suit and sale-leaseback transactions in various years involving certain properties that did not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting as the lease agreements included various forms of continuing involvement. These transactions include the sale-leaseback of three properties for cash proceeds of $12.8 million during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014. These transactions have been classified as financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 840, “Leases,” due to the existence of prohibited forms of continuing involvement.

Under the financing method, the assets remain on the consolidated balance sheet and proceeds received by the Company from these transactions are recorded as capital lease obligations, allocated between land, as applicable, and building. Payments under these leases are applied as payments of imputed interest and deemed principal on the underlying building obligations, with no underlying cash payments deemed attributable to the land obligations and the estimated net book value of the buildings at the conclusion of the lease terms. The related land assets are not depreciated, and at the end of the lease terms, the remaining capital lease obligations will equal the combined net book values of the land and buildings. At the expiration of the lease terms, which range from 2021 to 2068, or when the Company’s continuing involvement under the lease agreements ends, the related land, buildings and capital lease obligations will be removed from the consolidated balance sheet, with no underlying cash payments. These capital lease obligations are reflected as non-cash obligations in the preceding table.

6. DEBT

Long-term debt is comprised of the following (dollars in thousands):

	April 18, 2015			December 27, 2014
Holding I Notes	$	460,000		$	460,000
Holding II Notes		150,000			150,000

Current portion		(2,010	)		(1,983	)
Total long-term debt	$	641,539		$	664,130

On May 15, 2013, Holding II issued $150.0 million of unsecured senior notes, bearing annual cash interest of 8.75% (the “Holding II Notes”). If certain conditions are met, Holding II may be entitled to pay interest on the Holding II Notes by increasing the principal of the notes or by issuing new notes as pay-in-kind interest. This interest would accrue at an annual rate of 9.50%. The $148.5 million proceeds from the Holding II Notes issuance, net of a $1.5 million original issue discount, were used to pay a $141.9 million, or $980 per share, dividend to the Holding II shareholders. The Holding II Notes mature June 15, 2018 and require semi-annual interest payments on June 15 and December 15. To the extent permitted by the agreements governing the Holding I Notes (see below) and the 2017 ABL Facility (see below), Holding I may make dividend payments to Holding II to fund the semi-annual interest payments related to the Holding II Notes. The Holding II Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time on or after June 15, 2015 at specified redemption prices. Prior to June 15, 2015, the Company may redeem some or all of the Holding II Notes at a specified “make-whole” premium.

On December 20, 2012, Holding I and Tops Markets (collectively, the “Issuers”) issued $460.0 million of senior secured notes, bearing annual interest of 8.875% (the “Holding I Notes”). Effective May 15, 2013, Tops Markets II Corporation was added as a co-issuer of the Holding I Notes. On August 20, 2013, Holding II was added as a guarantor of the Holding I Notes. The proceeds from the Holding I Notes were used to redeem the previously outstanding $350.0 million senior secured notes, pay a $100.0 million dividend to the Holding I shareholders and pay fees and expenses related to the notes issuance. The Holding I Notes mature December 15, 2017 and require semi-annual interest payments on June 15 and December 15. The Holding I Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time on or after June 15, 2015 at specified redemption prices. Prior to June 15, 2015, the Issuers may redeem some or all of the Holding I Notes at a specified “make-whole” premium.

The Holding I Notes are collateralized by (i) first priority interests, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, in the stock held by Holding II, the Issuers, Tops Markets II Corporation and the guarantor subsidiaries, Tops PT, LLC, Tops Gift Card Company, LLC and Erie Logistics, LLC (collectively, the “Guarantors”), the Company’s warehouse and distribution facility in Lancaster, New York, the Company’s retail facility located in Fayetteville, New York and certain owned real property acquired by the Issuers and the Guarantors following the issue date of the Holding I Notes, equipment, intellectual property, and substantially all other assets of the Issuers and the Guarantors, other than assets securing the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility (the “2017 ABL Facility”) on a first priority basis (collectively, the “Holding I Notes Priority Collateral”), and (ii) second priority interests, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, in the assets of the Issuers and the Guarantors that secure the 2017 ABL Facility on a first priority basis, including present and future receivables, deposit accounts, inventory, prescription lists, and certain rights and proceeds relating thereto (collectively, the “ABL Priority Collateral”).

On December 14, 2012, Tops Markets entered into the 2017 ABL Facility with Bank of America, N.A. as collateral agent and administrative agent. The 2017 ABL Facility allows a maximum borrowing capacity of $125.0 million, subject to a borrowing base calculation, with an option for up to $50.0 million of additional borrowing capacity if certain conditions are met. The borrowing base includes inventory, pharmacy prescription files and certain receivables. The 2017 ABL Facility will mature on December 14, 2017.

As of April 18, 2015, the unused availability under the 2017 ABL Facility was $46.9 million, after giving effect to the borrowing base calculation, $23.9 million of letters of credit outstanding and $30.0 million borrowings outstanding. As of December 27, 2014, $20.7 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the 2017 ABL Facility. Revolving loans under the 2017 ABL Facility, at the Company’s option, bear interest at either LIBOR plus a margin of 150 to 200 basis points, determined based on levels of borrowing availability, or the prime rate plus a margin of 50 to 100 basis points, determined based on levels of borrowing availability. As of April 18, 2015 and December 27, 2014, the weighted average interest rates on borrowings under the 2017 ABL Facility were 2.02% and 2.24%, respectively. The 2017 ABL Facility is collateralized primarily by (i) first priority interests, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, in the ABL Priority Collateral, and (ii) second priority interests, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, in the Holding I Notes Priority Collateral.

The instruments governing the Holding II Notes, Holding I Notes and the 2017 ABL Facility impose customary affirmative and negative covenants on the Company, including restrictions on indebtedness, liens, type of business, acquisitions, investments, sale or transfer of assets, payment of dividends, transactions involving affiliates, and obligations on a change in control. Failure to meet any of these covenants would be an event of default. On August 19, 2014, the 2017 ABL Facility was amended to reduce specified restrictions on the Company’s ability to make certain payments, including dividends.

On November 29, 2013, Tops MBO Co entered into a $12.3 million term loan (“MBO Co Loan”) to partially fund the Management Purchase. The MBO Co Loan bore cash interest of LIBOR plus a margin of 300 basis points, with six scheduled quarterly principal and interest payments that began March 31, 2014. Holding II and its subsidiaries were neither co-issuers nor guarantors of the MBO Co Loan, and none of the assets or stock of Holding II were pledged as collateral for the MBO Co Loan. Accordingly, the MBO Co Loan was not pushed down to the consolidated financial statements of Holding II. The remaining principal balance on the MBO Co Loan, along with accrued and unpaid interest, was repaid in full on September 25, 2014.

7. INCOME TAXES

Income tax (expense) benefit was as follows (dollars in thousands):

	16-week periods ended
	April 18, 2015			April 19, 2014
Current	$	(2	)	$	(17	)
Deferred		(540	)		4,153
Total income tax (expense) benefit	$	(542	)	$	4,136

Based on an assessment of positive and negative evidence regarding the realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against total net deferred tax assets, and consequently, the Company recognized no income tax benefit during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015. The income tax expense recognized for the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 primarily reflects the recognition of additional valuation allowance associated with the tax amortization of the Company’s indefinite-lived tradename and goodwill deferred tax liabilities. The effective tax rate would have been 38.7% without the establishment of the valuation allowance.

The Company recognized income tax benefit during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 as a result of the Management Purchase yielding larger intangible asset values, which drove the Company into a net deferred tax liability position (excluding the Company’s indefinite-lived tradename and goodwill deferred tax liabilities). The income tax benefit recognized for the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 primarily reflects the loss before income taxes, net of the establishment of valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, primarily reflecting the recognition of valuation allowance associated with the tax amortization of the Company’s indefinite-lived tradename and goodwill deferred tax liabilities. The overall effective tax rate was 35.2%. The effective tax rate would have been 42.0% without the impact of the valuation allowance establishment.

As of the beginning of fiscal year 2015, the Company had U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $45.7 million and $41.9 million, respectively, which expire beginning in 2026. In addition, the Company had federal tax credits of $4.6 million, which expire beginning in 2026.

8. GAIN ON SALE OF ASSETS

During January 2015, the Company sold pharmacy scripts and inventory related to 27 of its in-store pharmacy locations for cash proceeds of $14.9 million. These pharmacies were then closed. A resulting gain on sale of assets of $11.0 million, net of the carrying value of sold inventory of $3.2 million and direct selling expenses of $0.7 million, was recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015.

9. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

On January 8, 2015, the Company paid a dividend of $0.8 million to Tops MBO Co to repurchase outstanding common stock shares of Tops MBO Co from a former Company executive. In addition, one outstanding common stock share of Holding II was repurchased.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Multiemployer Pension Plan

On December 22, 2013, Tops Markets acquired all of the membership interests of Erie Logistics, LLC (“Erie Logistics”) and certain other assets from C&S Wholesale Grocers, Inc. (“C&S”). Erie Logistics operates the Company’s warehouse and distribution facilities located in Lancaster and Cheektowaga, New York and employs the warehouse and driver personnel at these facilities, all of whom are represented by Teamsters Local 264. Under its supply agreement with Tops Markets, C&S, through Erie Logistics, had operated these facilities since 2002.

In late January 2014, the Company received notice that the New York State Teamsters Conference Pension and Retirement Fund (the “Fund”) had suspended Erie Logistics as a participating employer in the Fund pending the Fund’s investigation into the acquisition of Erie Logistics from C&S. This suspension was retroactive to the effective date of the acquisition. During this “suspension” and thereafter through the date of this Quarterly Report on form 10-Q, Erie Logistics has continued to make contributions to the Fund as required by the collective bargaining agreements with Teamsters Local 264. The Fund has rejected and returned these contributions. During the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014, these rejected contributions totaled $1.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively. On May 27, 2014, the Fund provided Erie Logistics and C&S with notice of its determination that Erie Logistics incurred employer withdrawal liability as a result of the acquisition. The notice provides that Erie Logistics owes withdrawal liability of $183.7 million, payable in a lump sum or in monthly installments, calculated to give effect to a limit on total withdrawal liability imposed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”), of $641,514 for 240 months.

The Company believes that the Fund’s determination of a withdrawal violates ERISA, the existing participation agreements between Erie Logistics and the Fund, and the fiduciary duties of the trustees of the Fund. The Company is vigorously contesting this determination, initially through mandatory arbitration under ERISA.

The Company has not recorded any reserve for this matter as a loss is not considered probable. If it were ultimately determined that Erie Logistics has incurred a withdrawal liability to the Fund, the Company would bear financial responsibility for this liability. Under the terms of the purchase agreement for the acquisition of Erie Logistics from C&S, and as a continuation of our prior contractual obligations, the Company retains the obligation to indemnify C&S in the event withdrawal liability is imposed on Erie Logistics, the Company or C&S. During the pendency of the proceeding to contest the withdrawal determination, ERISA requires that conditional monthly payments of withdrawal liability be made, which began July 28, 2014. The monthly conditional payments of withdrawal liability, totaling $1.9 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015, are in addition to pension contributions the Company is required to make for the benefit of Erie Logistics’ associates under the collective bargaining agreements with Teamsters Local 264 which, as noted, the Fund has refused to accept. The aggregate conditional monthly payments of withdrawal liability, totaling $ 5.8 million as of April 18, 2015, have been recorded in accounts receivable, while the aggregate rejected contributions, totaling $ 5.8 million as of April 18, 2015, have been recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities within our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

On July 28, 2014, Teamsters Local 264 filed a grievance charging a violation of its collective bargaining agreements by reason of the Company’s failing to participate in the Fund.

Purchase Commitments

Effective December 22, 2013, in connection with its purchase of all the membership interests of Erie Logistics and certain other assets from C&S, the Company modified its existing supply agreement with C&S whereby it will resume warehousing and transportation functions, while C&S will continue to provide procurement and purchasing services in support of the majority of the Company’s supply chain. This modified supply agreement sets out the parties’ respective responsibilities for the procurement and purchase of merchandise intended for use or resale in our supermarkets. In consideration for the services it provides under the agreement, C&S is paid a fee based on all merchandise procured and also has incentive income opportunities. Effective April 1, 2015, the Company and C&S agreed in principal to amend certain operating terms of the supply agreement and extend the term of the agreement through April 1, 2020. A supply agreement amendment reflecting these terms is expected to be formalized and executed during the Company’s second fiscal quarter.

On September 24, 2012, the Company entered into a supplemental supply agreement with C&S to provide similar services in support of the 21 supermarkets acquired from GU Markets in October 2012. This agreement expires on September 23, 2022.

Effective May 1, 2013, Tops Markets entered into a member participation agreement with Topco, a procurement cooperative for food retailers and wholesalers, for the supply of substantially all of the Company’s prescription drugs. Tops Markets must purchase 95% of its branded prescription drugs and 95% of its generic pharmaceutical products through Topco. This agreement expires February 28, 2017.

Effective July 24, 2010, the Company extended its existing IT outsourcing agreement with HP Enterprise Services, LLC (formerly known as Electronic Data Systems, LLC), or HP, through December 31, 2017 to provide a wide range of information systems services. Under the agreement, HP provides data center operations, mainframe processing, business applications and systems development to enhance the Company’s customer service and efficiency. The charges under this agreement are based upon the services requested at predetermined rates.

The costs of these purchase commitments are not reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Environmental Liabilities

The Company is contingently liable for potential environmental issues of some of its properties. As the Company is unaware of environmental issues that are expected to materially impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as a whole, no amounts were accrued as of April 18, 2015 or December 27, 2014.

Collective Bargaining Agreements

The Company employs approximately 15,000 associates. Approximately 83% of these associates are members of United Food and Commercial Workers, or UFCW, District Union Local One, or Local One, or two other UFCW unions. Approximately 4% are members of Teamsters Local 264, working within our warehouse and distribution facilities. All other associates are non-union. The Company is a party to five collective bargaining agreements with Local One expiring between October 2015 and July 2017. The Company has two non-Local One UFCW collective bargaining agreements that expire in April 2016 and February 2018. The Company is also a party to three collective bargaining agreements with Teamsters Local 264 expiring in August 2019.

Legal Proceedings

Except as otherwise disclosed in this note, the Company is unaware of legal proceedings that are expected to materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a whole. No amounts related to legal proceedings were accrued as of April 18, 2015 or December 27, 2014.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “10-Q”).

We are a leading supermarket retailer in Upstate New York, Northern Pennsylvania and Vermont. Introduced in 1962, our Tops brand is widely recognized as a strong retail supermarket brand name in our market area, supported by strong customer loyalty and attractive supermarket locations. As of April 18, 2015, we operated 158 full-service supermarkets, 157 under the Tops banner and one under the Orchard Fresh banner, with an additional five supermarkets operated by franchisees under the Tops banner.

On November 14, 2013, Morgan Stanley Private Equity and other stockholders of Holding II, Tops MBO Corporation (“Tops MBO Co”) and Holding II signed a Purchase and Sale Agreement pursuant to which Tops MBO Co agreed to purchase substantially all of the outstanding common stock of Holding II (the “Management Purchase”). Tops MBO Co is owned and controlled by members of our management. The Management Purchase closed effective December 1, 2013. Prior to the Management Purchase, members of management owned approximately 7% of the outstanding equity interests in Holding II. As a result of the Management Purchase, management now beneficially owns all of the outstanding equity interests of Holding II.

Forward-Looking Statements

This 10-Q includesforward-looking statements, which are generally statements about future events, plans, objectives and performance. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will” and similar expressions identifyforward-looking statements.Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations, based on currently available information, and are not guarantees. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in suchforward-looking statements are reasonable, these expectations could prove inaccurate as such statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our ability to control or predict. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties, or other risks or uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. Important factors relating to these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:

• current economic conditions and the impact on consumer demand and spending and our pricing strategy;

• pricing and market strategies, the expansion, consolidation and other activities of competitors, and our ability to respond to the promotional practices of competitors;

• our ability to effectively increase or maintain our profit margins;

• the success of our store acquisition, construction and remodel programs;

• fluctuations in utility, fuel and commodity prices which could impact consumer spending and buying habits and the cost of doing business;

• risks inherent in our fuel station operations;

• our exposure to local economies and other adverse conditions due to our geographic concentration;

• risks of natural disasters and severe weather conditions;

• supply problems with our suppliers and vendors;

• our relationships with unions and unionized employees, and the terms of future collective bargaining agreements or labor strikes;

• increased operating costs resulting from increases in the minimum wage, rising employee benefit costs or pension funding obligations;

• changes in, or the failure or inability to comply with, laws and governmental regulations applicable to the operation of our pharmacy and other businesses;

- 20 -

• the adequacy of our insurance coverage against claims of our customers in connection with our pharmacy services;

• estimates of the amount and timing of payments under our self-insurance policies;

• risks of liability under environmental laws and regulations;

• our ability to maintain and improve our information technology systems;

• events that give rise to actual or potential food contamination, drug contamination or food-borne illness or any adverse publicity relating to these types of concerns, whether or not valid;

• threats or potential threats to security;

• our ability to retain key personnel;

• risks of data security breaches or losses of confidential customer information;

• risks relating to our substantial indebtedness;

• claims or legal proceedings against us; and

• other factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2014 and elsewhere in this10-Q.

We caution that investors should not place undue reliance onforward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. We disclaim any intention, obligation or duty to update or revise anyforward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We operate on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 30. Our fiscal years include 13 four-week reporting periods, with an additional week in the thirteenth reporting period for 53-week fiscal years. Our first quarter of each fiscal year includes four reporting periods, while the remaining quarters include three reporting periods.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements for the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014 are unaudited, and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of financial position and results of operations for such periods.

RECENT EVENTS AFFECTING OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND THE COMPARABILITY OF REPORTED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

2015 Sale of Pharmacy Assets

During January 2015, we sold pharmacy scripts and inventory related to 27 of our in-store pharmacy locations, which resulted in a gain on sale of assets of $11.0 million in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015.

2014 Dividends

On March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, we paid dividends of $2.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively, to Tops MBO Co to fund the quarterly principal and interest payments under the MBO Co Loan. On September 25, 2014, we paid a dividend of $7.9 million to Tops MBO Co to fund the repayment of the remaining principal balance and accrued and unpaid interest on the MBO Co Loan.

- 21 -

Management Purchase

As part of the Management Purchase, we incurred $15.8 million of transaction costs, of which $0.6 million was paid as of December 28, 2013, with $15.0 million paid during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 and $0.2 million paid during the 12-week period ended July 12, 2014.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

16-Week Period Ended April 18, 2015 Compared with the 16-Week Period Ended April 19, 2014

Summary

The results of operations during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 were impacted by the January 2015 sales of inventory and pharmacy scripts related to 27 in-store pharmacies, and closure of these pharmacies, and the shift in the timing of the Easter holiday. The week following Easter is historically a poor sales week. This week fell during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015, but did not fall during the comparable period in 2014. Despite a 32.9% decrease in the average retail price of fuel, related profitability improved. Our results for the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 also reflect increased labor costs, offset by a decline in utility commodity rates. The pharmacy inventory and script sales resulted in an $11.0 million gain, partially offset by $1.0 million of non-recurring severance costs associated with the pharmacy closures.

Net Sales

The following table includes the components of our net sales for the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014.

(Dollars in thousands)

	16-week periods ended
	April 18, 2015		April 19, 2014		$ Change			% Change
Inside sales	$	676,696	$	688,456	$	(11,760	)		(1.7	)%
Gasoline sales		46,154		68,083		(21,929	)		(32.2	)%
Net sales	$	722,850	$	756,539	$	(33,689	)		(4.5	)%

Inside sales decreased $11.8 million, or 1.7%, during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 due to the $8.4 million reduction in pharmacy sales attributable to the closure of 27 in-store pharmacies during January 2015 and the shift in the timing of the Easter holiday, partially offset by the $6.0 million incremental contribution of two acquired supermarkets and one new supermarket opened since July 2014.

Overall, same store sales decreased by 1.4%. Sales related to the 27 closed in-store pharmacies have been excluded from both of the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014 for purposes of calculating same store sales. The week following Easter, historically a poor sales week, occurred during the 2015 period, versus the week subsequent to the end of the 2014 period, resulting in an estimated $5.8 million, or 85 basis points negative impact, on same store sales. Additionally, temporary disruptions from the pharmacy closures, and repurposing of the vacated space, had an estimated 36 basis points negative impact on same store sales. The remaining 16 basis points decline in same store sales was largely attributable to a decline in federal funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (“SNAP”), which had an estimated negative impact of 40 basis points on same store sales.

Same store sales is the change in period-over-period inside sales, excluding franchise revenue, for “same stores,” which are supermarkets that have been operating for at least 13 full four-week periods.

Fuel sales decreased during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 due to a 32.9% decrease in the average retail price per gallon, net of applicable discounts, slightly offset by a 1.0% increase in gallons sold due to the addition of four new fuel stations since February 2014.

Gross Profit

The following table includes a comparison of cost of goods sold, distribution costs and gross profit for the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014.

(Dollars in thousands)

	16-week period ended April 18, 2015			% of Net Sales			16-week period ended April 19, 2014			% of Net Sales			$ Change		% Change
Cost of goods sold	$	(494,125	)		68.4	%	$	(526,635	)		69.6	%	$	32,510		6.2	%
Distribution costs		(14,260	)		2.0	%		(15,767	)		2.1	%		1,507		9.6	%
Gross profit	$	214,465			29.7	%	$	214,137			28.3	%	$	328		0.2	%

As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold decreased during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 due to the improvement in profitability on fuel sales, and a decrease in LIFO inventory valuation expense from $1.3 million during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 to $0.2 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015. Excluding the impact of non-cash LIFO expense, cost of goods sold as a percentage of inside sales was 67.2% and 67.0% during the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014, respectively.

As a percentage of net sales, distribution costs remained relatively consistent during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014.

Operating Expenses

The following table includes a comparison of operating expenses for the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014.

(Dollars in thousands)

	16-week period ended April 18, 2015			% of Net Sales			16-week period ended April 19, 2014		% of Net Sales			$ Change			% Change
Wages, salaries and benefits	$	109,456			15.1	%	$	106,958		14.1	%	$	2,498			2.3	%

Total	$	192,375			26.6	%	$	200,822		26.6	%	$	(8,447	)		(4.2	)%

Wages, Salaries and Benefits

The increase in wages, salaries and benefits as a percentage of net sales during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 reflects a $0.75 hourly minimum wage increase in New York State effective January 1, 2015, $1.0 million of severance costs associated with the January 2015 closure of an in-store pharmacies, a $0.5 million increase in pension contributions as prescribed by our collective bargaining agreements, and a $0.5 million increase in medical costs associated with non-union supermarket associates.

Selling and General Expenses

The decrease in selling and general expenses as a percentage of net sales during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 is largely the result of a $5.2 million decrease in utility costs attributable to lower electricity commodity costs.

- 23 -

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses increased $3.4 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 due to a $1.5 million increase in bonus expense reflecting improved performance against budget metrics, normal wage adjustments and increased associate healthcare costs.

Rent Expense, Net

Rent expense reflects our rental expense for our supermarkets under operating leases, net of income we receive from various entities that rent space in our supermarkets under subleases. Rent expense remained relatively consistent during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization remained relatively consistent during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014.

Advertising

Advertising remained relatively consistent during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014.

Gain on Sale of Assets

During January 2015, we sold pharmacy scripts and inventory related to 27 of our in-store pharmacy locations for cash proceeds of $14.9 million. These pharmacies were then closed. A resulting gain on sale of assets of $11.0 million, net of the carrying value of sold inventory of $3.2 million and direct selling expenses of $0.7 million, was recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss for the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense remained relatively consistent during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014.

Income Tax (Expense) Benefit

Based on an assessment of positive and negative evidence regarding the realization of our deferred tax assets, we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against total net deferred tax assets, and consequently, we recognized no income tax benefit during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015. The income tax expense recognized for the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 primarily reflects the recognition of additional valuation allowance associated with the tax amortization of our indefinite-lived tradename and goodwill deferred tax liabilities. The effective tax rate would have been 38.7% without the establishment of the valuation allowance.

We recognized income tax benefit during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 as a result of the Management Purchase yielding larger intangible asset values, which drove us into a net deferred tax liability position (excluding our indefinite-lived tradename and goodwill deferred tax liabilities). The income tax benefit recognized for the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 primarily reflects the loss before income taxes, net of the establishment of valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, primarily reflecting the recognition of valuation allowance associated with the tax amortization of our indefinite-lived tradename and goodwill deferred tax liabilities. The overall effective tax rate was 35.2%. The effective tax rate would have been 42.0% without the impact of the valuation allowance establishment.

Net Loss

Our net loss decreased $3.4 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 for the reasons described above.

- 24 -

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary sources of cash are cash flows generated from our operations and borrowings under our 2017 ABL Facility. Our 2017 ABL Facility allows a maximum borrowing capacity of $125.0 million, subject to a borrowing base calculation, with an option for future upsizing with up to $50.0 million of incremental commitments if certain conditions are met. As of April 18, 2015, the unused availability under our 2017 ABL Facility was $46.9 million, after giving effect to the borrowing base calculation, $23.9 million of letters of credit outstanding and $30.0 million of borrowings outstanding. We expect that cash generated from operations and borrowing capacity under our 2017 ABL Facility will permit us to fund our debt service requirements, investments in working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. We do not expect to make dividends of significant size in the near future; however, we may pay dividends to our stockholders from time to time. Our financial flexibility will depend upon our future operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions in the grocery industry and financial, business, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Although unforeseen, if faced with the need to increase liquidity, we could readily respond through the control of variable operating expenses (for example, by adjusting employment levels) and through the scale back of planned capital expenditure and acquisition activities.

During January 2015, we sold pharmacy scripts and inventory related to 27 of its in-store pharmacies for cash proceeds of $14.9 million. These pharmacies were then closed.

On December 1, 2013, the Management Purchase was consummated. Of the total cash consideration of $20.9 million, $4.3 million was funded through the use of available Company cash. Additionally, we incurred $15.8 million of transaction costs, of which $0.6 million were paid as of December 28, 2013, with $15.0 million paid during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 and $0.2 million paid during the 12-week period ended July 12, 2014.

On June 15, 2015, semi-annual cash interest payments totaling $27.0 million are payable related to our Holding I Notes and Holding II Notes. We expect these payments will be funded through cash from operations and borrowings under our 2017 ABL Facility. No principal amounts are payable related to these notes until their respective maturities on December 15, 2017 and June 15, 2018.

Cash Flows Information

The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities:

(Dollars in thousands)

	16-week periods ended
	April 18, 2015			April 19, 2014
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	30,613		$	7,877
Investing activities		1,321			(12,300	)
Financing activities		(26,432	)		2,108

Cash provided by operating activities increased $22.7 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 reflecting $15.0 million of transaction fees related to the Management Purchase that were paid during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014, $2.9 million of cash proceeds from the January 2015 sales of inventory related to 27 in-store pharmacies, and an improvement in working capital requirements during the 2015 period.

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities improved $13.6 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 primarily due to net cash proceeds of $11.3 million from the sales of pharmacy scripts during January 2015. We expect to invest $30 million to $40 million in capital expenditures during Fiscal 2015, primarily related to new supermarket locations, remodels and maintenance activities. We expect to fund these capital expenditures primarily with cash from operations.

Cash (used in) provided by financing activities decreased $28.5 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015 compared with the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014. The decrease reflects a $19.3 million increase in 2017 ABL Facility net repayments from $2.7 million during the 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 to $22.0 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015. The 16-week period ended April 19, 2014 also includes $12.8 million of cash proceeds from the sale of three supermarket locations as part of sale-leaseback financing transactions.

Multiemployer Pension Plans

We contribute to the Local One plan, a defined benefit multiemployer pension plan, under our collective bargaining agreements with Local One. The Local One plan generally provides retirement benefits to participants based on their service to contributing employers. We are contingently liable for withdrawal liability in the event that we withdraw from the Local One plan. The actuary for the Local One plan has estimated that, as of December 31, 2013, our withdrawal liability would have been approximately $334.3 million in the event of our complete withdrawal from the Local One plan during 2014. We have not yet received an estimate for a complete withdrawal occurring in 2015. In accordance with applicable accounting rules, our contingent withdrawal liability is not included in our consolidated financial statements. We have no intention to withdraw from the Local One plan. During the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014, we made contributions of $3.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively, to this plan. We are required to increase our annual contributions to the Local One plan pursuant to our current collective bargaining agreements and the Local One plan’s current rehabilitation plan.

As a result of our acquisition of Erie Logistics from C&S in December 2013, we are obligated to contribute to the New York State Teamsters Conference Pension and Retirement Fund. During the 16-week periods ended April 18, 2015 and April 19, 2014, our required contributions to the Fund were $1.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

We are contingently liable for withdrawal liability in the event of a withdrawal from the Fund, which includes any withdrawal liability imposed on Erie Logistics for which C&S is liable. In late January 2014, we received notice that the Fund had suspended Erie Logistics as a participating employer in the Fund pending the Fund’s investigation into the acquisition.

Notwithstanding the suspension, we continued to tender contributions to the Fund for the Erie Logistics associates as required by the collective bargaining agreements with Teamsters Local 264. The Fund has rejected and returned these contributions to date. We have established a separate interest bearing account to hold these contributions.

On May 27, 2014, the Fund provided notice to Erie Logistics and C&S of its determination that Erie Logistics’ incurred employer withdrawal liability as a result of the acquisition. The notice provides that Erie Logistics owes withdrawal liability of $183.7 million, payable in a lump sum or in monthly installments, calculated to give effect to a limit on total withdrawal liability imposed by ERISA, of $641,514 for 240 months. If it were ultimately determined that Erie Logistics incurred a withdrawal liability to the Fund, the Company would bear financial responsibility for this liability. Under the terms of the purchase agreement for the acquisition of Erie Logistics from C&S, and as a continuation of our prior contractual obligations, the Company retains the obligation to indemnify C&S in the event withdrawal liability is imposed on Erie Logistics, the Company or C&S. Although we are vigorously contesting the withdrawal determination, during the pendency of the proceeding to contest such determination, ERISA requires that conditional monthly payments of withdrawal liability be made, which began July 28, 2014. These monthly conditional payments of withdrawal liability, totaling $1.9 million during the 16-week period ended April 18, 2015, are in addition to pension contributions the Company has tendered which the Fund has rejected and returned, as discussed in Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this 10-Q.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our off-balance sheet arrangements at April 18, 2015 consisted of operating leases and any potential withdrawal liability obligations under our multi-employer pension plans. We are not a party to any other off-balance sheet arrangements, that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, net sales, expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Inflation

Product cost inflation could vary from our estimates due to general economic conditions, weather, availability of raw materials and ingredients in the products that we sell and their packaging, and other factors beyond our control.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods.

Refer to Holding II’s audited consolidated financial statements as of December 27, 2014 for a description of certain critical accounting policies, including those related to vendor allowances, inventory valuation, valuation of tradename, valuation of long-lived assets, acquisition accounting, leases, self-insurance programs and income taxes.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We use derivative financial instruments from time to time, primarily to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and, to a lesser extent, adverse fluctuations in commodity prices and other market risks. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. As a matter of policy, all of our derivative positions are intended to reduce risk by hedging an underlying economic exposure. Because of the high correlation between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure, fluctuations in the value of the instruments generally are offset by reciprocal changes in the value of the underlying exposure.

We manage our exposure to interest rates and changes in the fair value of our debt instruments primarily through the strategic use of variable and fixed rate debt, and interest rate swaps. As of April 18, 2015, we did not have any outstanding interest rate swaps.

The table below provides information about our outstanding debt as of April 18, 2015. The amounts shown for each year represent the contractual maturities of long-term debt, excluding capital lease obligations. Interest rates reflect the weighted average rates for the outstanding instruments. The Fair Value column includes the fair value of our debt instruments as of April 18, 2015. Refer to Note 1 of our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this 10-Q for information about our accounting policy for financial instruments.

COMMODITY PRICE RISK

We purchase products that are impacted by commodity prices and are therefore subject to price volatility caused by weather, market conditions and other factors, which are not considered predictable or within our control.
