ITEM 5.02            DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.
 
On March 18, 2013, LRI Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) reached an agreement with Robert R. Effner, our Chief Development Officer, whereby Mr. Effner will be leaving the Company effective March 22, 2013 to pursue other opportunities.
 
On March 20, 2013, the Company entered into a Separation and Release Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Mr. Effner.  Mr. Effner has the right to revoke the Agreement within seven days of the execution date.  Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Mr. Effner will receive bi-weekly severance payments equal to his base salary in effect at the time of termination for a period of one year along with continued payment of the Company’s contribution towards health benefits. Mr. Effner’s shares of Roadhouse Holding Inc. stock will be subject to the repurchase provisions of the Stockholders' Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the Agreement, all unvested stock options terminate and Mr. Effner waived his right to exercise any vested stock options. The Agreement contains customary confidentiality provisions and a full release of any claims against the Company by Mr. Effner. The term of the post-employment non-compete and non-solicitation provisions are one and two years, respectively.

The foregoing description is only a summary and is qualified by reference to the actual Agreement, which will be attached as an exhibit to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending April 28, 2013.
