Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) This grant is exempt from Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), pursuant to Rule 16b-3(d) of the Exchange Act, as the Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") were granted pursuant to a plan approved by the board of directors of Noodles & Company (the "Company").
(2) Grant of RSUs to Catterton Management Company, L.L.C., constituting half of Scott Dahnke's and Andrew Taub's annual compensation for serving as members of the Company's board of directors, which Mr. Dahnke and Mr. Taub were legally obligated to direct to Catterton Management Company, L.L.C. Mr. Taub has no direct pecuniary interest in the shares. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company's Class A common stock, and the RSUs settled in shares of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of the grant. Mr. Dahnke may be deemed to share voting and dispositive power with respect to the securities held by Catterton Management Company, L.L.C. Mr. Dahnke expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
(3) This amended Form 4 is filed to correct an administrative error in the reported amount of securities acquired. The amount of securities beneficially owned following the reported transaction has been updated accordingly.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
