Form 8-K for RUBY TUESDAY INC


9-May-2012

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement


Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 7, 2012, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as representative of the several initial purchasers named therein (collectively, the "Initial Purchasers"), with respect to the offer and sale by the Company and the purchase by the Initial Purchasers in a private placement of $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7 5/8% Senior Notes due 2020 (the "Notes") at an issue price of 98.536%. The Company's obligations under the Notes will be guaranteed by its existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. The Initial Purchasers intend to resell the Notes in an offering exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Notes Offering"). As previously announced, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering to repay all outstanding indebtedness under the Company's revolving credit facility, to redeem all of its outstanding Series B senior notes, to pay off certain of its outstanding mortgage loan obligations and for general corporate purposes, including without limitation to opportunistically repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock and to pursue potential strategic acquisitions. The Notes Offering is expected to close on or about May 14, 2012.

The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Notes may not be offered or sold within the U.S. or to U.S. persons, except to "qualified institutional buyers" in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A and to certain persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy Notes in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or sale would be unlawful.

The Purchase Agreement relating to the Notes Offering is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.

The Purchase Agreement has been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other financial information about the Company or its subsidiaries. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates; were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement; may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or its subsidiaries. Moreover, information concerning the subject-matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures by the Company.

Item 9.01   Financial Statements and Exhibits.
