Company Enters Into $1.25 Billion Credit Facility

Lebanon, Tennessee (April 28, 2006) - CBRL Group, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ:CBRL) announced today the preliminary results of its modified “Dutch” auction tender offer to purchase up to 16,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time on April 27, 2006.

Based upon the preliminary count by Computershare Trust Company of New York, the depositary for the tender offer, approximately 24.4 million shares were validly tendered and not withdrawn, including approximately 10.5 million shares tendered through notice of guaranteed delivery, at the minimum offer price of $42.00. Accordingly, the Company expects that it will purchase 16,750,000 shares in the tender offer, subject to proration, at $42.00 per share. The number of shares to be purchased and the price per share are preliminary, are based on the shares tendered through notice of guaranteed delivery being validly tendered and are subject to verification by the depositary, and are therefore subject to change. The actual number of shares purchased (including the Company’s option to purchase up to an additional 950,000 shares), the final purchase price and the proration factor, if any, will be announced promptly following completion of the verification process. Payment for the shares accepted for purchase, and return of all other shares tendered, will occur promptly after completion of the final purchase price and proration computations, if applicable.

The Company expects to obtain the funds necessary to purchase shares tendered in the tender offer by borrowing under an $800 million term loan under the Company’s $1.25 billion credit facility that became effective yesterday. The new credit facility, in addition to providing up to $1 billion in term loans, also provides a $250 million revolving credit facility that replaces the Company’s current $300 million facility. The new credit facility was provided by a syndicate of banks led by Wachovia Securities.
