  Item
  1.03.
  Bankruptcy or Receivership.
  On May 2, 2008,
  Linens Holding Co. ("
  Holding
  ") and each of its direct and indirect U.S.
  subsidiaries, including Linens 'n Things, Inc. ("
  LNT
  ") and Linens 'n
  Things Center, Inc. ("
  Center
  " and, together with Holding, LNT, and
  each of the direct and indirect U.S. subsidiaries of Holding, the "
  Debtors
  "),
  filed voluntary petitions (the "
  Chapter 11 Petitions
  ") for relief under
  Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "
  Bankruptcy Code
  ")
  in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "
  Bankruptcy
  Court
  ").  The Debtors will continue
  to manage their properties and operate their businesses as "debtors-in-possession"
  under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the
  applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. 
  Holding's indirect Canadian subsidiaries are not included in the U.S.
  bankruptcy filings and no bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar proceedings have
  been initiated in Canada with respect to the Canadian subsidiaries.
  In connection with the
  Chapter 11 Petitions, the Debtors filed motions seeking Bankruptcy Court
  approval of a Senior Secured, Super-Priority Debtor-in-Possession and Exit
  Option Credit Agreement (the "
  DIP Credit Agreement
  ") among LNT and
  Center, as U.S. Borrowers, Linens 'n Things Canada Corp., as Canadian Borrower,
  Holding, as Guarantor, the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, the Lenders
  party thereto, General Electric Capital Corporation, as U.S. Administrative
  Agent, GE Canada Finance Holding Company, as Canadian Administrative Agent, and
  the other Agents party thereto.  The DIP
  Credit Agreement, substantially in the form attached to the motions filed with
  the Bankruptcy Court, provides for a revolving credit commitment of up to
  $700.0 million (the "
  Revolver
  "), with a non-debtor-in-possession
  Canadian subfacility of the Revolver of up to $50.0 million.
  On May 2, 2008,
  Holding issued a press release relating to the foregoing (the "
  Press Release
  "),
  a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated
  herein by reference.
  Item
  2.04.
  Triggering
  Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an
  Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.
  The filing of the Chapter 11 Petitions described in
  Item 1.03 above constitutes or may constitute an event of default or otherwise
  triggers or may trigger repayment obligations under the express terms of
  certain instruments and agreements relating to direct financial obligations of
  the Debtors (the "
  Debt Documents
  "). 
  As a result of such an event of default or triggering event, all
  obligations under the Debt Documents would by the terms of the Debt Documents
  have or may have become automatically and immediately due and payable.  The Debtors believe that any efforts to
  enforce such payment obligations under the Debt Documents are stayed as a
  result of the filing of the Chapter 11 Petitions in the Bankruptcy Court.  The Debt Documents include the following:
  ·
  $650.0
  million of Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2014 issued by LNT and Center
  and the Indenture dated as of February 14, 2006 with respect thereto; and
  ·
  various
  capital leases and/or operating leases, some or all of which may require notice
  to the respective Debtor before the occurrence of an event of default or
  triggering event.
  Item 5.02
  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers;
  Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory
  Arrangements of Certain Officers.
  (b)
  Robert J. DiNicola has
  resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer of Holding and its direct and
  indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the "
  Companies
  ") effective with the
  filing of the Chapter 11 Petitions on May 2, 2008.  Mr. DiNicola continues to serve as
  executive Chairman of the Board of each of the Companies.
  (c)
  Holding and LNT have
  appointed new officers in connection with the filing of the Chapter 11
  Petitions.  The appointments were
  announced in the Press Release.
  Michael F. Gries
  Effective
  with the filing of the Chapter 11 Petitions on May 2, 2008, Michael F.
  Gries was appointed Chief Restructuring Officer and Interim Chief Executive
  Officer of each of the Companies.  Mr. Gries,
  age 53, is a noted
  2
  financial restructuring expert and has over 25 years
  of experience advising companies and creditors on complex corporate
  reorganizations. Mr. Gries is a Co-Founder of Conway, Del Genio, Gries &
  Co., LLC ("
  CDG
  ") and has been a member of CDG since 1998.  Prior to that time, he was a senior partner
  at Ernst & Young LLP.
  Holding,
  LNT, and Center have engaged CDG to provide restructuring management services
  to the Companies pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement dated May 1,
  2008 between CDG and each of Holding, LNT, and Center (the "
  Engagement
  Agreement
  ").  The restructuring
  management services pursuant to the Engagement Agreement include, but are not
  limited to, providing the services of Mr. Gries as Chief Restructuring
  Officer and Interim Chief Executive Officer. 
  The Engagement Agreement provides that CDG will receive a $200,000
  monthly fee.  Upon completion of a
  Restructuring (as defined in the Engagement Agreement), CDG will receive,
  without duplication, a fee in an amount equal to $3.0 million.  CDG is also entitled to be indemnified by the
  Company in relation to its engagement and to be reimbursed for certain
  out-of-pocket expenses as set forth in the Engagement Agreement.
  Mr. Gries
  is not an employee of any of the Companies and will not receive any direct
  compensation from any of the Companies as an employee or as an officer.
  F. David Coder
  Effective
  on May 2, 2008, F. David Coder, formerly the Executive Vice President,
  Store Operations of Holding and LNT, was promoted to the positions of President
  and Chief Operating Officer of each of the Companies.
  In

  Employment Agreement (the "
  New Employment Agreement
  ") with Mr. Coder
  on May 1, 2008, to be effective on May 2, 2008, to serve as President
  and Chief Operating Officer.  The New
  Employment Agreement is substantially the same as the Amended and Restated
  Employment Agreement dated May 9, 2006 (the "
  Old Employment Agreement
  ")
  between LNT and Mr. Coder.  The New
  Agreement provides for an initial term ending on December 31, 2009, which
  is the same as the term in effect immediately prior to the promotion under the
  Old Employment Agreement.  The New
  Agreement also provides for an annual base salary increase to $500,000 from
  $440,000.  A description of Mr. Coder's
  Old Employment Agreement is included in Holding's Annual Report on Form 10-K
  for the year ended December 29, 2007, and is incorporated herein by
  reference.
  The
  description of the New Employment Agreement contained herein does not purport
  to be complete and is qualified in it entirety by reference to the New
  Employment Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1
