ITEM 5.02  DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN  OFFICERS;  ELECTION OF  DIRECTORS;
APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS

On April 13, 2007, the Board of Directors of JoS. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc. (the
"Company") appointed Chief Merchandising Officer R. Neal Black as President of
the Company. On the same day, Robert N. Wildrick, who had been President of the
Company, was appointed to the new position of Executive Chairman. Mr. Wildrick
continues as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. As President, Mr. Black
will continue his responsibilities as Chief Merchandising Officer and will
continue to report to Mr. Wildrick. As Executive Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer, Mr. Wildrick will continue to be the liaison between the management of
the Company and the Board of Directors and have supervisory authority over all
other officers of the Company.

Mr. Black, who is 52 years old, joined the Company in January 2000 as Executive
Vice President-Merchandising and Marketing. He served in that capacity until
April 13, 2007, when he became President of the Company. Mr. Black will remain
President of the Company until he is removed from such office by the Board of
Directors, his successor shall be elected or he shall no longer be employed by
the Company, whichever shall be earlier.

Mr. Black is employed by the Company pursuant to an amended employment agreement
that expires on January 31, 2009. Mr. Black currently receives an annual base
salary of $560,000 and is eligible to receive a bonus for performance in fiscal
2007 (the twelve months ending February 2, 2008) of up to $365,000. The bonus
plan is more fully described below. If Mr. Black's employment is terminated by
the Company without cause or if Mr. Black resigns for good reason, or if Mr.
Black's employment agreement expires without the Company having offered him at
least a one year renewal or extension of the employment period on its then
current terms, Mr. Black will be entitled to receive termination compensation
equal to his base salary for a period of twelve (12) months following the date
of termination plus a prorated portion of the bonus for the then current bonus
year. Mr. Black will be subject to certain non-compete restrictions following
the term of his employment with the Company.

Mr. Black participates in a bonus plan with certain other of the Company's
officers and key managers. With regard to Mr. Black, the bonus plan is designed
to reward Company-wide financial performance through tying the payment of his
bonus primarily to the achievement by the Company of goals for net income after
payment of bonuses ("Net Income"). Under the bonus plan, a range of Net Income
results has been established (the "Bonus Eligibility Range"). Below the low end
of the Bonus Eligibility Range, no bonus is expected to be paid to Mr. Black.
Within the Bonus Eligibility Range, the percentage of the maximum potential
bonus expected to be paid to Mr. Black increases as Net Income increases. In the
event Net Income is within the Bonus Eligibility Range, Mr. Wildrick will make a
recommendation to the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors for
payment of a bonus at or above the applicable percentage level based upon his
evaluation of Mr. Black's contribution to the performance of the Company and
such other factors as he may deem relevant. If Net Income is at or above the
highest level of Net Income within the Bonus Eligibility Range, Mr. Black is
eligible to earn his maximum bonus potential. The final determination of Mr.
Black's bonus is made by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

The information set forth above is a brief, not complete, description of Mr.
Black's compensatory arrangements. Such information is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the full text of the employment agreement between the Company
and Mr. Black, and all amendments thereto, and the description of the Company's
compensation bonus plan, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.9, 10.9(a),
10.9(b), 10.9(c), 10.9(d), 10.9(e), 10.9(f), 10.9(g) and 10.15, respectively, to
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on April 17, 2007. Each such exhibit is incorporated herein by
