Item 1.01        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

            Investment Transaction

            On June 13, 2012, Good Times Restaurants Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Small Island Investments Limited, a Bermuda corporation (the "Investor"), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell and issue to the Investor 473,934 shares (the "Shares") of a new series of the Company's preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, to be designated as "Series C Convertible Preferred Stock" ("Series C Preferred Stock"), at a purchase price of $4.22 per share, or an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,001.48.  Each share of the Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into two shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock").  As described below, the closing of the investment transaction (the "Investment Transaction") under the Purchase Agreement (the "Closing") is subject to certain conditions, including the receipt of stockholder approval of the Investment Transaction.  The Company expects the Closing to occur promptly following the satisfaction of such condition and by September 30, 2012.

            The Investor is a Bermuda corporation based in Boston, Massachusetts.  At the present time, the Investor beneficially owns approximately 50.74% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock.  Assuming no change in the foregoing, immediately following the Closing, the Investor's beneficial ownership of the Company's capital stock will increase to approximately 63.45%.

            David L. Dobbin, Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors, is a principal of the Investor.  Accordingly, the Investment Transaction constitutes a related party transaction and was reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors.

            Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Shares to be issued and purchased in the Investment Transaction, and the shares of the Company's common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares (collectively, the "Securities"), will be issued in a transaction not involving any public offering and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").  However, in connection with the Closing of the Investment Transaction, the Company will enter into an amendment to its existing Registration Rights Agreement dated December 13, 2010 with the Investor (the "Registration Rights Agreement") (the "Registration Rights Agreement Amendment"), to include the shares of the Company's Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares as "Registrable Securities" under the Registration Rights Agreement.

            A copy of the Company's June 19, 2012 press release announcing the Investment Transaction is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.  Each of the material agreements relating to the Investment Transaction is summarized below.  The summaries do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the related agreements, copies of which are filed as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

            Securities Purchase Agreement

            As described above, on June 13, 2012, the Company and the Investor entered into the Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell and issue to the Investor, and the Investor has agreed to purchase form the Company, 473,934 Shares of newly designated Series C Preferred Stock of the Company, at a purchase price of $4.22 per share.  The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the Company, which are in certain cases modified by "materiality" and "knowledge" qualifiers.

            The Purchase Agreement provides that the obligation of the Investor to complete the purchase of the Shares at the Closing is subject to certain conditions (which may be waived by the Investor), including:

            (i) that the Registration Rights Agreement Amendment has been duly executed by the Company and delivered to the Investor;

            (ii) that the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects (or true and correct in all respects as to representations and warranties which are qualified by materiality) as of the Closing as though made on and as of such date;

            The Company has agreed to indemnify the Investor (and certain "Investor Parties" as defined in the Purchase Agreement) for all liabilities, losses or damages as a result of or relating to any breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in the Purchase Agreement.

            The Purchase Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing only as follows:

  • by the Investor or the Company, if the Closing has not occurred by September 30, 2012, provided that the right to terminate shall not be available to either party whose failure to perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement is the primary cause of the failure of the Closing to have occurred by such date;
  • by the Investor or the Company, if the Company's stockholders do not vote to approve the Investment Transaction;
  • at any time by mutual agreement of the Company and the Investor; or
  • by either the Company or the Investor, if there has been a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the other party contained in the Purchase Agreement, which has not been cured within 15 days after notice thereof.
