EXPLANATORY NOTE

O’Charley’s Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Form 8-K/A as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 9, 2012 (“Original Filing”). The Original Filing reported certain matters related to the acquisition of the Company by Fidelity National Financial, Inc. and its affiliates. The sole purpose of this Form 8-K/A is to disclose certain additional information required by Item 3.01 of Form 8-K. No other changes have been made to the Original Filing.

 

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On April 30, 2012, the Company informed NASDAQ that, as a result of the resignation and appointment of certain directors in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement (as defined in the Original Filing), as described in Item 5.02 of the Original Filing, the Company is no longer in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(c) (“Rule 5605(c)”) which requires that the audit committee of the Company’s Board of Directors be composed of at least three independent directors. As a result of the actions described in Item 5.02 of the Original Filing, there are only two members of the Company’s Board of Directors that qualify as independent under Rule 5605(c). Each of the independent directors serves on the Company’s audit committee. If the Merger (as defined in the Original Filing) does not occur, the Company will take the necessary steps to appoint an additional independent director to the Company’s Board of Directors and to the Company’s audit committee in order to comply with Rule 5605(c).
