As previously announced, effective February 1, 2008, Lawrence E. White retired as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of CBRL Group, Inc. (the “Company”).  (See the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 17, 2007 and filed with the Commission on September 21, 2007, and which is incorporated herein by this reference.)  Pending selection of a permanent successor to Mr. White, the Company’s Board of Directors, effective March 7, 2008, appointed the Company’s Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, N.B. Forrest Shoaf, to the additional position of Interim Chief Financial Officer.  It is anticipated that Mr. Shoaf will serve in that position until the Company selects a permanent successor to Mr. White.  Since announcing the retirement of Mr. White, the Company has been conducting a search for a successor and expects to conclude that search in the near future.  At that time, the Company will make an announcement regarding Mr. White’s successor.
