O’CHARLEY’S INC. ANNOUNCES AGREEMENT TO OUTSOURCE DISTRIBUTION FOR ITS NINETY-NINE RESTAURANTS CONCEPT AND SELL RELATED ASSETS

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (June 15, 2009) — O’Charley’s Inc. (Nasdaq: CHUX), a leading casual-dining restaurant company, announced today that it has entered into an agreement with Reinhart FoodService, L.L.C. (“Reinhart”) to outsource food and supply distribution for Ninety Nine Restaurants, and to sell related assets at its distribution facility in Bellingham, Massachusetts. The Company reported that it expects the transactions to reduce its investment in non-restaurant assets and to reduce its ongoing expenses. The transactions are expected to close in mid-August.

• Reinhart will sublease and continue to operate the Bellingham facility for an interim period that is expected to be less than one year, as it expands its existing distribution facility in New Bedford, Massachusetts. At the end of this interim period, Reinhart will provide distribution services to Ninety Nine from its expanded facility in New Bedford.

• At closing, Reinhart will purchase substantially all of the Company’s assets in Bellingham, including inventories and certain fixed assets, for estimated cash proceeds, net of reductions in accounts payable, of between $6 and $8 million.

• Reinhart has agreed to extend offers to hire the then-current Bellingham employees at the time of closing at their current compensation levels.

• Other than the expected proceeds from the sale of inventories and fixed assets, the Company does not expect this transaction to have an impact on its financial position or results of operations in its 2009 fiscal year.

• Depending upon its ability to sublease the Bellingham facility, the Company expects this transaction to reduce its ongoing cost of food and beverage after the interim period by between $0.2 and $0.4 million per year.

“Since we opened the facility four years ago, our in-house distribution team in Bellingham has done an outstanding job providing warehousing and distribution services to the Ninety Nine Restaurants,” said Jeffrey D. Warne, president and chief executive officer of O’Charley’s Inc. “With their reputation for customer service and as a great place to work, we are confident that Reinhart FoodService will provide great service to our restaurants and great opportunities for our team members. With the changes announced today, the management team at Ninety Nine can now focus exclusively upon managing and improving its great brand, while our Company reduces its investment in non-restaurant assets and reduces its ongoing expenses.”
