ITEM 1.01
ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On July 19, 2011 Ruby Tuesday, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the “Registrant”) entered into an amendment of its Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) dated as of December 1, 2010, by and among the Registrant, the Lenders and Bank of America, N.A.  as Administrative Agent, Servicer, Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender.  The purpose of the amendment was to increase the amount of the optional additional revolving commitments available under the Credit Facility from $50 Million to $60 Million, thereby increasing the maximum aggregate revolving commitment amount under the Credit Facility from $370 Million to $380 Million. On the same date, the Registrant exercised its option to increase the revolving commitments from $320 Million to $380 Million pursuant to new Lender Commitment Agreements with the existing Lenders and an additional new Lender.
 
On July 21, 2011, the Registrant entered into indemnification agreements (the “Indemnification Agreements”) with each of Matthew Drapkin and Steven Becker, who joined the Registrant’s Board of Directors on June 30, 2011.  Pursuant to the Indemnification Agreements, the Registrant has agreed, in certain circumstances, to indemnify each director against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement incurred as a result of the fact that the director, in his capacity as a director of the Registrant, is made or threatened to be made a part to any suit or proceeding.  The Indemnification Agreements also provide for the advancement of expenses to each director in connection with such suit or proceeding.  The description above is a summary of the terms of the Indemnification Agreements, a copy of the form of which is incorporated by reference to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 2, 2010.

ITEM 2.02

Stock Option and Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, which was approved by the Board of Directors on June 30, 2011 and disclosed pursuant to a Report on Form 8-K dated July 1, 2011.  While that Form 8-K indicated the Company’s intent at the time to submit the foregoing amendment to a vote of its shareholders, the Company has since concluded that such approval is not necessary and is attaching to this Form 8-K a revised amendment to this effect.
