XXXX'S CABARET SIGNS PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR CONTROL OF NEW GENTLEMEN'S CLUB IN
AUSTIN, TEXAS
HOUSTON-(October 12, 2006)-XXXX'S CABARET INTERNATIONAL, INC. (NASDAQ: XXXX),
the national chain of adult entertainment nightclubs, said today it has entered
into a Purchase Agreement to acquire a 51 percent interest in a new
22,000-square-foot gentlemen's club in fast-growing Austin, Texas. As part of
the transaction, the Company will enter into a Management Agreement under which
it will manage the club as a Xxxx's Cabaret.
The transaction is expected to close upon issuance of final permits by the City
of Austin, subject to normal due diligence for transactions of this nature.
Xxxx's Cabaret will pay $500,000 in cash and will issue 125,000 shares of the
company's restricted common stock valued at $8 per share to the current owner of
PLAYMATES GENTLEMEN'S CLUB at 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx. The club is located in the
northern part of Austin just east of the busy I-35 corridor. Constructed earlier
this year, the club is expected to open in late October or early November and
will become one of the company's flagship locations along with the company's
other upscale locations.
"We are delighted to have completed the negotiations for this outstanding venue,
which we predict will become one of the premier adult nightclubs in the
country," said XXXX XXXXXX, CEO of Xxxx's Cabaret. "We will have the majority
ownership and will operate the club with our famous Xxxx's Cabaret model -
beautiful women, unequaled customer service and friendliness, plus a great
steakhouse in a luxurious setting."
The Playmates transaction is the fourth this year for Xxxx's Cabaret, bringing
the total number of clubs owned or operated by the company to 13. "This is the
latest in our active acquisition program, which is continuing as we study other
possibilities throughout the country," said Xx. Xxxxxx.
Xxxxxx, with a current population of 1.4 million, is one of the fastest growing
cities in the United States adding over 400,000 people during the 1990s and
increasing its population by nearly 50 percent, according to the Texas Office of
Economic Development and Tourism.
Earlier this year Xxxx's Cabaret acquired three clubs in South Houston and San
Antonio, Texas.
