Culp Resigns as Chairman and CEO of Tanner's Restaurant Group, Inc.
Norcross, GA - December 23, 1999 - Tanner's Restaurant Group, Inc. ("Tanner's")
(OTCBB:ROTI) announced today the resignation of Clyde E. Culp as Chief Executive
Officer, Chairman of the Board and a Director of Tanner's, citing health reasons
for his resignation. Tanner's will be managed on an interim basis by Robert J.
Hoffman, its current Senior Vice President of Operations.
Tanner's is a developer, operator and franchiser of branded restaurant concepts.
The Company's flagship operation is the eight-location chain of Rick Tanner's
Original Grill restaurants located in the metropolitan Atlanta area. Rick
Tanner's offers a casual dining experience, generous portions, and high quality
foods at reasonable prices. The menu offers over 40 entrees, 15 appetizers, and
15 vegetables and side dishes, with an emphasis on food that is fresh and cooked
to order. Meals are available on both an eat-in and take-out basis, and the
restaurant is positioned between home meal replacement concepts and traditional
sit-down restaurants that are not designed to cater to the take-out business.
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27-A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Although the company believes the
expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are based on reasonable
assumptions, the company's actual results could differ materially from those set
