                                  REVERSE SPLIT

GENERAL

     Stockholders  owning of record a majority of the  outstanding  stock of the
Company have  considered  and voted upon and adopted a proposal  providing for a
Reverse  Split of the common stock (the "Common  Stock") of Synergy  Brands Inc.
(the "Company").  The extent in terms of how sizeable the Reverse Split shall be
was authorized by such  Shareholder  Consent to be left to the discretion of the
Company's  Board of  Directors  to their  decision  to be made by  deciding on a
choice  between  adoption of one of four  possible  Amendments  to the company's
Certificate  of  Incorporation,  copies  of  which  alternative  Amendments  are
included herewith as Exhibits.  The four possible variations which the Company's
Board of  Directors  are to choose from are Reverse  Splits of either 2 for 1, 3
for 1, 4 for 1 or 5 for 1 shares.  The  Company's  Board of  Directors  was also
authorized  to cancel such Reverse  Split at any time prior to the filing of the
Amendment with the Secretary of State's office in the Company's domicle State of
Delaware.  The  Company's  Board of Directors  was also  authorized  to approve,
implement  and  effectaute  the Reverse Split by making their choice as to which
Amendment  to  implement  only  within  60  days  of the  date  of  the  subject
Shareholder  Approval,  and if not  accomplished  within  such time  period  the
Reverse Split shall then be subject to further Shareholder approval. The Reverse
Split will be  effectuated  by an  amendment  to the  Company's  Certificate  of
Incorporation  (the  "Reverse  Split  Amendment")  in one of the  formats as are
contained  in the Exhibits to this  Information  Statement,  which  Exhibits are
incorporated  by  reference  herein.  The Reverse  Split  Amendment  will become
effective no earlier than twenty one days subsequent to the approximated date of
mailing this  Information  Statement as stated at the outset hereof and upon its
filing  with  the  Secretary  of  State  of  Delaware  (the  "Effective  Date").
Fractional  shares of Common stock will not be issued as a result of the Reverse
Split.  Stockholders entitled to receive a fractional share of Common Stock as a
consequence of the Reverse Split will, instead,  receive from the Company a cash
payment  in United  States  dollars  equal to such  fraction  multiplied  by the
average closing price of the Common Stock on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market for the
five trading days immediately preceding the Effective Date.

AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

     The Reverse Split Amendment will amend Article Fourth of the Certificate of
Incorporation to add a new section to the end thereof  providing for the Reverse
Split. At the Effective Date,  without further action on the part of the Company
or the Company's stockholders, each share of Common Stock will be converted into
a  fraction  of a share of  Common  Stock  where  the  numerator  is one and the
denominater  is equal to the  number  of  pre-split  shares  to be  reduced  and
surrendered in exchange for one post-split share as dictated by the terms of the
Amendment  chosen  by the  Company's  Board of  Directors  from the  choices  as
provided in the forms of Amendment  included  herewith as Exhibits.  The Reverse
Split  Amendment  will become  effective  upon its filing with the  Secretary of
State of the State of Delaware.

     The vote for the  Reverse  Split  proposal  included  authorization  of the
Company's  Board of Directors  not to file or to delay the filing of the Reverse
Split Amendment in the event that the Board of Directors  determines that filing
the Reverse Split  Amendment  would not be in the best interest of the Company's
stockholders.  Factors  leading to such  determination  could  include,  without
limitation, any possible effect on NASDAQ listing or future securities offerings
(see "Reasons for the Reverse Split" infra).

VOTE NEEDED FOR APPROVAL

     The  proposed  Reverse  Split and the related  amendment  to the  Company's
Certificate  of  Incorporation  must be and were  approved  by the holders of at
least a majority of the outstanding  shares of the Company's  Common Stock.  The
stockholders  of the Company  approved the Reverse Split pursuant to the Written
Consent annexed hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by reference.

     THE BOARD OF  DIRECTORS  ARE  EXPECTED  TO  APPROVE  IMPLEMENTATION  OF THE
DESCRIBED  REVERSE  SPLIT BY ADOPTING A  RESOLUTION  SETTING  FORTH THE PROPOSED
REVERSE  SPLIT   AMENDMENT  IN  THE  FORM  ATTACHED  HERETO  AS  EXHIBIT  3  AND
INCORPORATED  HEREIN BY REFERENCE,  AND RECOMMENDED THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS OF THE
COMPANY VOTE FOR THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT.

                                      -4-



EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED REVERSE SPLIT

     Upon  thefiling of the Reverse Split  Amendment,  the Reverse Split will be
deemed  effective,  and each  certificate  representing  shares of the Company's
pre-split common stock, will be deemed automatically,  without any action by the
stockholders,  to  represent  a fraction  of the number of  pre-split  shares of
common stock the size of which will depend on which of the Amendments is adopted
by the Company's Board of Directors;  provided,  however, that no fractional new
shares will be issued as a result of the Reverse  Split.  In lieu of  fractional
interests, a stockholder will receive cash equal to the average closing price of
the Company's common stock for the five (5) trading days following the Effective
Date  multiplied by that  fractional  interest.  After the Reverse Split becomes
effective,   stockholders   will  be  asked  to  surrender  stock   certificates
representing  the old shares in accordance  with the  procedures  set forth in a
letter  of  transmittal  to be sent  by the  Company.  Upon  such  surrender,  a
certificate  representing  the  new  shares  will be  issued,  along  with  cash
representing any fractional  interest,  and forwarded to stockholders.  However,
each  certificate  representing  old  shares  will  continue  to be  valid,  and
represent  new shares equal to the lesser  number of shares  resulting  from the
Reverse Split.

     The proposed Reverse Split will be effected by means of an amendment to the
Certificate of  Incorporation  of the Company.  Under Delaware law, no appraisal
rights are available to dissenting shareholders. Each stockholder who owns fewer
than an amount of pre-split  shares  which is a whole  multiple of the number of
shares to be  surrendered  in the Reverse  Split in exchange  for one  resulting
post-split  share  will have any  resulting  fractional  share of  Common  Stock
converted  into the right to receive  cash as set forth  below in  "Exchange  of
Stock  Certificates and Payment for Fractional  Shares",  infra. The interest of
such  stockholder  in the Company to the extent of such  fractional  shares will
thereby be terminated,  and such  stockholder will have no right to share in the
assets or future  growth of the Company to the extent  previously  applicable to
such fractional  shares.  Each shareholder who owns shares of Common Stock which
is a whole  multiple  of the number of shares to be  surrendered  in the Reverse
Split in exchange for one resulting post-split share will continue to own shares
of Common  Stock and will share in the assets and future  growth of the Company.
Such interest will be represented by the reduced number of shares resulting from
surrender in accord with the exchange amount  dictated by the chosen  Amendment,
except that no fractional shares will be issued.

                                      -5-

(1) Assumes outstanding Common Stock as of March 12, 2001


     Adoption of the Reverse Split proposal as of January 1, 2000 would not have
had an effect on net  income  for the  fiscal  year  ended  December  31,  2000.
However,  net loss per share  would  have  been  proportionately  increased.  No
adjustment  has been made for the  reduction  in the  number of shares of Common
Stock resulting from the payment of cash for fractional shares. The Company does
not  believe  that  adoption  of the  Reverse  Split will  adversely  affect the
continued  listing of the Company's Common Stock on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market,
but,  contrary,  the Company  believes  that it may be  necessary to achieve the
Reverse Split to maintain its listing thereon.

                                      -9-



REASONS FOR THE REVERSE SPLIT

     Management of the Company believes that it may be more difficult to attract
new investors to the Company because the Common Stock trades at a relatively low
price (the  closing  price on March 9, 2001 was $.62 per  share) and  desires to
increase the per share  market  quoted price for the Common Stock of the Company
to attract new investment which the Company believes that the Reverse Split will
accomplish.  Most  importantly,  the Company's  listing on NASDAQ is jeopardized
unless the market quoted price for the Company's common Stock increases to $1 or
more,  which the Company  believes will be achievable as a result of the Reverse
Split.

     It is anticipated that following the consummation of the Reverse Split, the
shares of Common  Stock will  trade at a price per share  that is  significantly
higher than the current  market price.  However,  there can be no assurance that
after the  consummation  of the Reverse  Split,  the shares of Common stock will
trade at a multiple of current  market price equal to the result of  multiplying
such market price by the number of pre-split  shares to be  surrendered  for one
resulting post-split share in the alternative Amendment chosen to effectuate the
Reverse Split.  There is no assurance  that the market for the Company's  common
stock will  improve.  Stockholders  must note that the Board of Directors of the
Company  cannot  predict what actual  effect the Reverse  Split will have on the
market price of the Company's common stock.

EXCHANGE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES AND PAYMENT FOR FRACTIONAL SHARES

     The  exchange of shares of Common  Stock will occur on the  Effective  Date
without any action on the part of stockholders of the Company and without regard
to the date  certificates  representing  pre-split  shares of  Common  Stock are
physically surrendered for certificates representing post-split shares of Common
Stock.  The Company's  Transfer Agent will exchange  certificates.  In the event
that the number of shares of post-split  Common stock  includes a fraction,  the
Company  will pay to the  stockholder,  in lieu of the  issuance  of  fractional
shares of the  Company,  a cash amount in United  States  dollars  which will be
equal to the same fraction multiplied by the average closing price of the Common
stock on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market for the five days immediately preceding the
Effective  Date.  A change in the closing  price of the Common Stock will affect
the amount received for a fraction share by a shareholder.

     As soon as practicable after the Effective Date,  transmittal forms will be
mailed to each holder of record of certificates for shares of Common Stock to be
used  in  forwarding   their   certificates   for  surrender  and  exchange  for
certificates  representing the number of shares of post-split  Common Stock such
stockholders  are  entitled to receive as a  consequence  of the Reverse  Split.
After  receipt of such  transmittal  form,  each  holder  should  surrender  the
certificates  representing pre-split shares of Common Stock of the Company. Each
holder who surrenders  certificates  will receive new certificates  representing
the whole  number of shares of  post-split  Common Stock to which he is entitled
and any cash payable in lieu of a fractional  share. The transmittal  forms will
be  accompanied  by  instructions  specifying  other  details  of the  exchange.
STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT SEND THEIR CERTIFICATES UNTIL THEY RECEIVE A TRANSMITTAL
FORM.

                                      -10-



     After the Effective Date, each certificate representing pre-split shares of
Common Stock will,  until  surrendered  and  exchanged as  described  above,  be
deemed, for all corporate purposes, to evidence ownership of the whole number of
post-split shares of Common Stock, and the right to receive from the Company the
amount of cash for any  fractional  shares,  into which the shares  evidenced by
such certificate have been converted, except that the holder of such unexchanged
certificates   will  not  be  entitled  to  receive  any   dividends   or  other
distributions  payable  by the  Company  after  the  Effective  Date,  until the
certificates   representing   pre-split   shares  of  Common   Stock  have  been
surrendered. Such dividends and distributions,  if any, will be accumulated, and
at the time of the surrender of the  certificates for pre-split shares of Common
Stock, all such unpaid dividends or distributions will be paid without interest.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     The following  discussion describes certain federal income tax consequences
of the Reverse Split. This discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 (the  "Code"),  existing and proposed  regulations  thereunder,  reports of
congressional committees,  judicial decisions and current administrative rulings
and  practices,  all as amended and in effect on the date  hereof.  Any of these
authorities  could be  repealed,  overruled  or modified  at any time.  Any such
change could be retroactive and,  accordingly,  could cause the tax consequences
to vary substantially from the consequences described herein. No ruling from the
Internal  Revenue  Service  (the  "IRS") with  respect to the matters  discussed
herein has been  requested,  and there is no assurance  that the IRS would agree
with the conclusions set forth in this discussion.  All shareholders  interested
in such information should consult with their own advisors.

     This  discussion is for general  information  only and does not address the
federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to particular  shareholders
in light of their  personal  circumstances  or to certain types of  stockholders
(such as dealers in securities,  insurance  companies,  foreign  individuals and
entities,  financial institutions and tax-exempt entities) who may be subject to
special  treatment  under the federal income tax laws. This discussion also does
not address any tax consequences under State, local or foreign laws.

     STOCKHOLDERS  ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISERS AS TO THE  PARTICULAR
TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF  PARTICIPATION  IN THE REVERSE SPLIT,  INCLUDING THE
APPLICABILITY OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR FOREIGN TAX LAWS, CHANGES IN APPLICABLE TAX
LAWS AND ANY PENDING OR PROPOSED LEGISLATION.

     The  Company  should  not  recognize  any gain or loss as a  result  of the
Reverse  Split.  No gain or loss  should  be  recognized  by a  stockholder  who
receives  only Common Stock upon the Reverse  Split.  The aggregate tax basis of
post-split  Common Stock received by such a stockholder  in connection  with the
Reverse  Split will equal the  stockholder's  aggregate  basis in the  pre-split
Common Stock exchanged therefor and generally will be allocated among post-split
Common  Stock  received  on a  pro-rata  basis.  Stockholders  who have used the
specific identification method to identify their basis in pre-split Common Stock
surrendered  in the  Reverse  Split  should  consult  their own tax  advisors to
determine  their  basis in the  post-split  Common  Stock  received  in exchange
therefor.  A  stockholder  who receives  cash in lieu of a  fractional  share of
Common Stock that otherwise  would be held as a capital asset  generally  should
recognize capital gain or loss on the receipt of such cash in an amount equal to
the difference  between the cash received and his basis in such fractional share
of Common Stock.  For this purpose,  a  stockholder's  basis in such  fractional
share of Common Stock will be determined as if the stockholder actually received
such fractional share.
