Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On January 20, 2009, Tandy Brands Accessories, Inc. (the “Company”) announced an organizational restructuring plan designed to focus the Company’s product development efforts, build critical capabilities, increase flexibility to better serve its retail partners’ needs and reduce operating expenses (the “Corporate Restructuring”). With the challenging retail environment, the Company believes the Corporate Restructuring will help stabilize the Company’s platform to position it for profitable growth in the future. A copy of the press release announcing the Corporate Restructuring is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report and is incorporated herein by reference.

One of the key components of the Corporate Restructuring included reducing overall salaried employee headcount by approximately 17%, which occurred on January 19, 2009. In connection with these actions, the Company currently expects to incur pretax charges of approximately $550,000 to $650,000, all of which relate to one-time termination benefits. The Company plans to recognize these charges in the third fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2009.

Given these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date hereof. Except as required under federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company does not undertake, and specifically declines, any obligation to update any of these statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any forward-looking statements after the distribution of this report, whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions, or otherwise.
