ITEM 5.02
COMPENSATORY ARRANGMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS
 
Rick’s Cabaret International, Inc. entered a new two-year Employment Agreement with our Chief Financial Officer, Phil Marshall, effective May 30, 2009 (the “Employment Agreement”).  Mr. Marshall’s previous employment agreement was executed in May 2007, had a term of two years and expired on May 30, 2009. The new Employment Agreement extends through May 30, 2011, and provides for an annual base salary of $200,000, bonus eligibility, expense reimbursement, participation in all benefit plans maintained by us for salaried employees and two weeks paid vacation.  Under the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Marshall is bound to a confidentiality provision and cannot compete with us upon the expiration of the Employment Agreement.
 
If the Employment Agreement is terminated by us because of Mr. Marshall’s disability, death or voluntary resignation or is terminated by us “with cause,” the Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Marshall will be entitled only to the compensation earned by him under the Employment Agreement as of the date of such termination.  If the Employment Agreement is terminated by Mr. Marshall for “good reason” or by us “without cause,” Mr. Marshall will be entitled to receive in one lump sum payment the full remaining amount under the terms of the Employment Agreement to which he would have been entitled had the Employment Agreement not been terminated.
