ITEM 2.03    Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

On June 15, 2007, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the registrant, Red Robin International, Inc., as the borrower, the domestic subsidiaries of the borrower from time to time parties thereto, the lenders parties thereto, Wachovia Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agents, KeyBank National Association and Suntrust Bank, as Documentation Agents, and Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC, as Lead Arranger and Book Runner.  The Credit Agreement increases the aggregate loan commitments under the existing credit facility from $200 million to $300 million, as well as amends the option to increase the credit facility in the future, subject to lender participation, from $40 million under the existing credit facility to $100 million.  The amended credit facility is comprised of a $150 million term loan and a $150 million revolving line of credit.  The Credit Agreement provides for more favorable borrowing rates and also extends the maturity date to June 15, 2012, with an option to extend the maturity date on the revolving line of credit for up to two additional years at the Company’s request and lenders’ participation.

Red Robin International, Inc. is the borrower under the Credit Agreement, and certain of its subsidiaries and the registrant are guarantors of borrower’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.  Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the borrower and the guarantors, including the registrant.  Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available to the borrower to finance restaurant construction and related costs, to refinance certain existing debt, to provide for working capital and general corporate requirements, to finance potential acquisitions relating to the purchase of franchised restaurants and to redeem and/or repurchase shares of capital stock of the registrant, with certain limitations.

A copy of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and a copy of the Amended and Restated Security Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2, both of which are incorporated herein by reference.
