ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On January 13, 1999, Everett Ramage filed a class action lawsuit in the
Chancery Court of Davidson County, Tennessee, naming as defendants Logan's
Roadhouse, Inc. (the "Company"), SunTrust Equitable Securities Corporation and
all of the directors of the Company. The plaintiff seeks to enjoin the merger
(the "Merger") of the Company with CBRL Group, Inc. ("CBRL") or, alternatively,
to recover damages in the event the Merger is consummated. The Agreement and
Plan of Merger, dated as of December 10, 1998 (the "Merger Agreement"), by and
among the Company, CBRL, LRI Merger Corporation and Cracker Barrel Old Country
Store, Inc., provides that each outstanding share of the Company's Common Stock
will be converted into the right to receive $24.00 in cash (the "Merger
Consideration"). The plaintiff claims that the Merger Consideration is unfair
and inadequate, that the Company's directors breached their fiduciary duty to
the Company's shareholders, that the Company's directors will be unjustly
enriched by the Merger and that the Company and its directors failed to disclose
material facts and misrepresented matters in the Company's Proxy Statement
relating to the Merger. The Company believes the claims against the Company and
its directors are without merit and intends to vigorously defend all claims made
against them.
The Company and CBRL do not anticipate that the suit will have any
effect on their plans to proceed with the Merger.
