Part I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued) Item 1. Financial Statements (continued). LUBY'S CAFETERIAS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS May 31, 1998 (UNAUDITED) Note 1: The accompanying unaudited financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and, consequently, do not include all of the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles. All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in Luby's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 1997. The accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are the same as those described in Luby's annual report on Form 10-K. Note 2: During the quarter ended February 28, 1998, the company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Statement 128 replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants, and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the reviously reported fully diluted earnings per share. Earnings per share amounts for all periods have been restated to conform to the requirements of Statement 128. Part I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued) Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Liquidity and Capital Resources _______________________________ Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $4,118,000 from the end of the preceding fiscal year to May 31, 1998. All capital expenditures for fiscal 1998 are being funded from cash flows from operations, cash equivalents, and long-term debt. Capital expenditures for the nine months ended May 31, 1998, were $18,446,000. As of May 31, 1998, the company owned three undeveloped land sites and one land site on which a cafeteria is under construction. During fiscal year 1997 the company purchased 897,500 shares of its common stock at a cost of $19,918,000, which are being held as treasury stock. To complete the treasury stock purchases and fund capital expenditures, the company required external financing and borrowed funds under a $125,000,000 line-of-credit agreement. As of May 31, 1998, the amount outstanding under this line of credit was $77,000,000. The company believes that additional financing from external sources can be obtained on terms acceptable to the company in the event such financing is required. Results of Operations _____________________ Quarter ended May 31, 1998 compared to the quarter ended May 31, 1997. ______________________________________________________________________ Sales increased $3,600,000, or 2.8%, due to the addition of five new cafeterias in fiscal 1998 and 27 in fiscal 1997, and due to a slight increase in average sales volume at cafeterias opened over one year. This increase was partially offset by the closing of five units, two in August 1997, two in September 1997, and one in January 1998. Cost of food increased $2,173,000, or 7.0%. As a percentage of sales, food costs were higher versus the prior year due to higher commodity prices resulting from poor weather conditions, new menu item testing, and higher fish prices. Payroll and related costs increased $1,500,000, or 4.0%, due primarily to the increase in sales and the higher federal minimum wage which increased first on October 1, 1996, and again on September 1, 1997. Occupancy and other operating expenses increased $742,000, or 1.9%, due primarily to the increase in sales. This increase was partially offset by lower preopening expenses due to fewer new store openings as compared to the prior year. General and administrative expenses increased $321,000, or 5.1%, due to higher legal and professional fees associated with the company's strategic planning project. This increase was partially offset by a lower profit sharing contribution estimated for fiscal 1998 as compared to the estimate of the contribution for the same period in the prior year. Lump sum severance agreements were recorded during both periods. Interest expense increased $210,000 due primarily to lower capitalized interest on qualifying properties as a result of less construction in the current period. The provision for income taxes decreased $494,000, or 9.9%, due primarily to lower income from operations. The effective income tax rate increased from 34.3% to 35.6% since the rate in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 was more significantly impacted by the company restructuring into a holding company. Nine months ended May 31, 1998 compared to the nine months ended May 31, 1997. _____________________________________________________________________________ Sales increased $10,359,000, or 2.8%, due primarily to the addition of five new cafeterias in fiscal 1998 and 27 in fiscal 1997. The sales increase from new cafeterias was partially offset by a slight decrease in sales volume at cafeterias opened over one year and the closing of five units, two in August 1997, two in September 1997, and one in January 1998. Cost of food increased $5,876,000, or 6.5%, due primarily to the increase in sales. As a percentage of sales, food costs were higher versus the prior year due to higher commodity prices resulting from poor weather conditions, new menu item testing, and product promotions featured during the period which had slightly higher food costs. Payroll and related costs increased $6,933,000, or 6.4%, due primarily to the increase in sales and the higher federal minimum wage which increased first on October 1, 1996, and again on September 1, 1997. Occupancy and other operating expenses increased $3,386,000, or 3.0%, due primarily to the increase in sales. With the slight decline in same-store sales for the nine months ended May 31, 1998, certain fixed expenses in this category have increased as a percentage of sales, including depreciation, property taxes, utilities, rent, repairs, and group insurance. These increases were partially offset by lower preopening expenses due to fewer store openings as compared to the prior period. In addition, managers' salaries, which are based on the profitability of the cafeterias, decreased as a percent of sales due to lower store profits. General and administrative expenses decreased $353,000, or 2.0%, due primarily to a lower profit sharing contribution estimated for fiscal 1998 as compared to the estimate of the contribution for the same period in the prior year. This decrease was partially offset by higher legal and professional fees associated with the company's strategic planning process. Interest expense increased $1,127,000 due to lower capitalized interest on qualifying properties as a result of less construction in the current period and slightly higher borrowing rates under the interest rate swap agreements. The provision for income taxes decreased $2,187,000, or 15.7%, due primarily to lower income from operations. The effective income tax rate increased from 34.8% to 35.6%. The Year 2000 _____________ Some of the company's older computer programs were written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. As a result, those computer programs have time-sensitive software that recognizes a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could cause a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, code invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities. The company has assessed the issue and will modify or replace its software so that its computer systems function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The company does not expect that the year 2000 issue will materially affect future financial results. Forward-Looking Statements __________________________ The company wishes to caution readers that various factors could cause the actual results of the company to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements made from time to time in news releases, reports, proxy statements, registration statements, and other written communications (including the preceding sections of this Management's Discussion and Analysis), as well as oral statements made from time to time by representatives of the company. Except for historical information, matters discussed in such oral and written communications are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to general business conditions, the impact of competition, the success of operating initiatives, changes in the cost and supply of food and labor, the seasonality of the company's business, taxes, inflation, and governmental regulations.

EX-10 2 SEVERANCE AGREEMENT;SALARY CONTINUATION AGREEMENTS Exhibit 10(bb) AGREEMENT OF RESIGNATION, SEVERANCE, CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-SOLICITATION, ARBITRATION AND GENERAL RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS This AGREEMENT OF RESIGNATION, SEVERANCE, CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-SOLICITATION, ARBITRATION AND GENERAL RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS (hereinafter "Agreement") is made and entered into between William E. Robson (hereinafter "Robson" or "Employee") and Luby's Cafeterias, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliate organizations and Luby's Restaurants Limited Partnership (hereinafter "Luby's" or "Employer"), for the consideration and mutual promises hereinafter stated, as follows: 1. This Agreement shall become effective on the date of execution by Robson. The parties agree that Robson will receive the following compensation in exchange for and consideration of this Agreement: a. Robson will receive his regular monthly salary through July 1, 1998. b. Beginning on August 1, 1998 and ending on November 1, 2006, Robson will receive a single monthly check representing the following two (2) components: (1) Component One: Three Thousand Dollars ($3,000.00) gross. Component One is considered previously earned by Robson under a deferred compensation agreement dated April 5, 1982, and amended thereafter, as well as a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) effective December 31, 1995 under which Robson is covered. Component One shall be paid until November 1, 2006 in 100 monthly payments to Robson, his spouse or his estate. (2) Component Two: Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) gross. Component Two shall be paid until November 1, 2006 in 100 monthly payments, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. In the event of Robson's death before the age of 65, the $5,000.00 per month sum shall be reduced to $2,500.00 per month which will thereafter be paid to Robson's surviving spouse during her lifetime for the duration of the 100-month period. NOTE: The parties agree that Component One monthly payments will be reported to Robson and the IRS on Form 1099-R, and Component Two monthly payments will be reported to Robson and the IRS on Form W-2. The issuance of W-2 statements does not imply that Robson continues in the capacity of an employee of Luby's. c. Luby's will continue payment of premiums for Robson's current health insurance until September 1, 1998. Thereafter, Robson may continue coverage under Luby's' health insurance program until he reaches the age of 65 as long as Robson pays the premium (set at the cost to Luby's). Failure by Robson to timely reimburse Luby's for the cost of health insurance premiums will result in cancellation of coverage. The provisions of this paragraph dealing with Robson's right to continue purchasing health insurance benefits under an existing Luby's program shall remain effective only for so long as Luby's health plan(s) permit. d. The parties understand and agree that this Agreement is not intended to and in no manner waives any existing rights Robson has to exercise stock options pursuant to the Management Incentive Stock Plan. Provided, however, that by execution of this agreement, Robson does in all particulars waive his rights, if any, to receive any benefits under any performance unit awards granted to Robson. Robson further understands and agrees that he must continue to abide by the terms of the Management Incentive Stock Plan in order to preserve and/or avoid waiving his rights under said Plan. e. The parties understand and agree that Robson has been a participant in the Luby's Profit Sharing Plan, and said Plan provides him the option to remain a participant therein until he reaches the age of sixty-five (65). Nothing in this Agreement is intended to in any way limit Robson's right to participate in said Plan pursuant to the Plan's policies. Similarly, the parties understand and agree that Robson has participated in a 401K Plan adopted by Luby's in March of 1997. Robson, likewise, has the option of continuing to participate in said 401K Plan, provided he pays the annual fee required of all retired participants. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to in any way affect Robson's rights to participate in said 401K Plan, subject to the limitations applicable to retired participants. f. The parties understand and agree that this Agreement shall in all particulars terminate Robson's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) and Robson's deferred compensation Agreement. g. Effective as of the effective date of this Agreement or sooner, Luby's will transfer title to the company vehicle (as of March 31, 1998, said vehicle having a book value of $11,671.00) currently being driven by Robson into Robson's name. As of the date of transfer of title in said vehicle to Robson from Luby's, Luby's shall cause to be issued to Robson a statement of the book value of said vehicle as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the date of transfer. The meal card as currently available to Robson will continue as available to other individuals retired from Luby's. h. Luby's will provide Robson with out-placement service for six (6) months from the date of execution of this Agreement and will consider extending such out-placement service if, pursuant to the written opinion of a representative of the out-placement firm, Robson is actively and aggressively engaged in finding employment. 2. Robson agrees, contemporaneous with the signing of this Agreement, to resign as an employee of Luby's Restaurants Limited Partnership as of September 1, 1998, subject to his right to resign prior to said date by giving notice of such intent, in writing, to Luby's and Robson further agrees to resign as an Officer and Director of Luby's Cafeterias, Inc. and its subsidiaries effective immediately upon the execution of this Agreement and as set forth in Exhibit "A" to this Agreement, attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein. Robson may (at his election) remain on Luby's Restaurants Limited Partnership's payroll in a leave of absence capacity for purposes of Luby's' Profit Sharing Plan to September 1, 1998. In order to protect Robson's rights, Luby's' Board of Directors will approve his retirement from Luby's Restaurants Limited Partnership under its current retirement program, effective September 1, 1998. Upon resignation by Robson, all benefits of employment with Luby's will terminate except as those specifically set forth in this Agreement. Only those rights, benefits and payments as specifically set forth herein will be preserved and, by this Agreement, Robson waives claim to any other benefits. Robson further acknowledges that, except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, the above payments constitute full satisfaction of all salary, bonuses, vacation and compensation obligations to Robson on behalf of Luby's. 3. Robson, with full understanding of the contents and legal effect of this Agreement, promises to and does hereby completely release and forever discharge Luby's, and any of its respective parent, affiliated or related companies, divisions, or subsidiaries and its respective officers, directors, agents, employees, attorneys, successors and assigns ("Released Parties") from any and all claims, of any and every kind, nature and character, known or unknown, including any and all claims which Robson may now have, or has ever had, against the Released Parties which arose or may have arisen, in whole or in part, before the date of this Agreement, back to the beginning of time, regardless of whether such claims are real or fanciful or known to Robson at this time, including, but not limited to, any and all claims, rights, demands, or causes of action, including, but not limited to causes of action arising out of or in connection with the employment relationship between Employee and Employer prior to, and as of the effective date hereof. The foregoing Release includes, but is not necessarily limited to, any and all claims arising under any federal law such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. section 2000 e et seq., the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. section 621 et seq., the Older Workers' Benefit Protection Act of 1990, 29 U.S.C. section 623 et seq., the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1975, as amended, "ERISA", 29 U.S.C. section 1001 et seq., the Civil Rights Acts appearing at 42 U.S.C. section 1981-88, the Civil Remedies Provisions available pursuant to 18 U.S.C. section 1964, the Americans With Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. section 12101 et seq., the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. section 201 et seq., and as amended, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, 29 U.S.C. section 206, any claim arising out of any state law including the Texas Commission on Human Rights Act, Texas Labor Code Sections 21.001 et seq.; the Texas Workers' Compensation Act, Texas Labor Code Sections 401.001 et seq., including Section 451.001 et seq. and any and all other federal, state or local legislation relating to, governing or protecting employment relationships, employment practices or any other matters. Also released are any and all claims arising under common law, including, but not limited to, those for breach of contract, wrongful termination, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, termination for reasons violative of public policy, constructive discharge, intentional and/or negligent infliction of emotional distress, inducing breach of contract, interference with contractual relationship, interference with prospective economic advantage, retaliation, or defamation, including self-compelled publication. Robson acknowledges that this Agreement includes a release of any and all damages of whatever nature or extent for which Robson could have sought recovery. 4. Luby's and any of its respective parent, affiliated or related companies, divisions, or subsidiaries and its respective officers, directors, agents, employees, attorneys, successors and assigns with full understanding of the contents and legal effect of this Agreement, promises to and does hereby completely release and forever discharge Robson, his assigns, heirs, administrators and executors from any and all claims, of any and every kind, nature and character, known and unknown including any and all claims which Luby's may now have, or has ever had, against Robson which arose or may have arisen, in whole or in part, before the date of this Agreement, back to the beginning of time, regardless of whether such claims are real or fanciful or known to Luby's at this time, including, but not limited to, any and all claims, rights, demands, or causes of action, including, but not limited to causes of action arising out of or in connection with the employment relationship between Employee and Employer prior to, and as of the effective date thereof. The parties understand and agree that the indemnification portions of Article VIII of Luby's' bylaws remain in effect. The parties further understand and agree that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to amend and/or provide any greater rights to indemnity for Employee than those provided in Article VIII of Luby's' bylaws. 5. In consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, Robson and Luby's agree that Employer's participation in and execution of this Agreement does not in any way constitute an admission by the Employer of any liability to Employee for any breach of any aspect of the employment relationship which existed between Employer and Employee, including, but not limited to the commission of any tortious or other acts by Employer against Employee or any other unlawful act whatsoever. Employee understands that this Agreement does not constitute an acknowledgment by Employer of any liability to or any wrongful act toward him. 6. It is mutually agreed and understood by Robson and Luby's that this Agreement shall resolve any and all obligations the parties have to one another arising out of the employment relationship and contractual terms which existed between Robson and Luby's, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement. It is also the understood purpose and intent of this Agreement to resolve any and all claims which Employee may have against Employer and which could be asserted against Employer arising out of the relationship which has at any time existed between Robson and Luby's. 7. Employee acknowledges that the previously existing employment relationship between him and Employer has at all times been one of employment at will, with either party having had the right to terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause, or other justification. Such mutual right of termination is and has been in full force and effect throughout the entire period of the employment relationship. 8. Robson acknowledges that Luby's has heretofore paid him all wages, bonus and vacation pay to which Employee was due as of the close of business on the effective date of this Agreement. These payments were due to Employee and are not consideration for this Agreement. Robson agrees and understands that the compensation provided pursuant this Agreement includes any and all benefits owing and due to him arising from the employment relationship prior to and as of the effective date hereof, including, but not limited to all unused vacation, bonus pay, wages, salaries or other compensation and all other terms and conditions of employment. 9. Robson, having been an officer and member of the Board of Directors of Luby's prior to his resignation, agrees that in said capacities he owed a duty of loyalty to Luby's as well as a fiduciary duty to Luby's and its stockholders, and, therefore, Robson agrees not to use or provide to any third party any trade secrets, confidential or proprietary information obtained by him from Luby's unless specifically agreed to in writing by Employer. In addition, Robson specifically agrees to refrain from solicitation for employment and agrees to refrain from assisting another in the solicitation for employment of any current or future management level employee of Luby's or its affiliates (including, but not limited to Water Street) or any non-management level employee who, at the date of solicitation, has ten (10) years of service with Luby's and/or its affiliate(s) (including, but not limited to, Water Street) organizations. In this regard, the parties understand and agree that the term "management level employee" shall include all officers and/or directors of Luby's or any of its affiliate organizations and all cafeteria managers, associate managers, assistant managers and/or manager trainees. Robson agrees that he will not interfere in any employment relationship which exists between Luby's and any current or future management level employee or non-management level employee with ten (10) or more years of service with Luby's. Should Robson commence employment with and/or provide services of any form on behalf of any enterprise whose primary line of business is the operation of conventional cafeterias, all Component Two payments referenced in Paragraph 1(b)(2) of this Agreement shall cease as of the date of such violation. Robson and Luby's agree that if Robson violates any non-solicitation provisions, Employer's obligation to make the Component Two monthly payments as set forth in this Agreement will cease as of the date of such violation. Termination of these payments under this provision will not affect the remaining obligations, waivers and releases contained in this Agreement. The parties agree that Luby's can enforce Robson's promises not to solicit employees, above described, through a court proceeding seeking injunctive and monetary damage relief in addition to the other provisions of this Agreement. Robson further agrees that he will not make derogatory or disparaging remarks regarding Luby's, its officers, directors, and/or members of management.
