Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

Reference is made to the Indenture, dated May 30, 2007 (the “Indenture”), between Spartan Stores, Inc. (the “Company”) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (formerly known as The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), as trustee, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold $110,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s 3.375% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Convertible Notes”). The Indenture was filed as Exhibit 4.01 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on May 30, 2007.

On January 4, 2013, the Company called all of the remaining outstanding $57.4 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes for redemption on March 1, 2013 (the “Redemption Date”). Convertible Notes called for redemption became due and payable on the Redemption Date at a cash redemption price of 100.96% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest (and other amounts that may be payable under the Indenture), up to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

Convertible Notes called for redemption may be converted at any time before the close of business on February 28, 2013. The conversion rate is 28.296406 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, an adjustment from the initial conversion rate of 28.0310 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes.
