On June 25, 2012, J. Alexander’s Corporation, a Tennessee Corporation (“J. Alexander’s,” or the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among J. Alexander’s, Fidelity National Financial, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), American Blue Ribbon Holdings, Inc., a newly-formed Delaware corporation and an indirect, majority-owned subsidiary of Parent (“ABRH”), Athena Merger Sub, Inc., a Tennessee corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of ABRH (“Merger Sub”), and Fidelity Newport Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect, majority-owned subsidiary of Parent. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation.

The information required by Item 1.01, including a copy of the Merger Agreement, will be filed in a separate Current Report on Form 8-K.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Information

In connection with the safe harbor established under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company cautions that certain information contained in this communication, particularly information regarding the expected date of closing and potential benefits of the transactions, is forward-looking information that involves risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as “may,” “will,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “target,” “forecast,” and other words and terms of similar meaning.  Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, among other things, the following risks and uncertainties: the failure to receive, on a timely basis or otherwise, the requisite approvals by the Company’s shareholders and governmental or regulatory agencies; the risk that a condition to closing of the proposed transactions may not be satisfied or waived; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; the effects of disruptions to business operations resulting from the transactions, including the ability of the combined company to retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with suppliers and other business partners; the risk of shareholder litigation in connection with the transactions and any related significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; the possibility that costs or difficulties related to the integration of the Company and ABRH operations will be greater than expected; and the possibility that the anticipated benefits and synergies from the proposed transaction cannot be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected.  Further, the businesses of the Company and ABRH remain subject to a number of general risks and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially.  There can be no assurance that the proposed transactions will in fact be consummated.

Additional information about these and other material factors or assumptions underlying such forward looking statements are set forth in the reports that the Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including those items listed under the “Risk Factors” heading in Item 1.A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 1, 2012. These forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s expectations as of the date of this communication. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future, except as may be required by law.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

In connection with the proposed transaction, ABRH and J. Alexander’s will be filing documents with the SEC, including the filing by ABRH of a registration statement on Form S-4 that will include a proxy statement of J. Alexander’s that also constitutes a prospectus of ABRH. J. Alexander’s shareholders are urged to read the registration statement on Form S-4 and the related joint proxy statement/prospectus when they become available, as well as other documents filed with the SEC, because they will contain important information. The final joint proxy statement/prospectus will be mailed to shareholders of J. Alexander’s. Investors and security holders may obtain free copies of these documents (when they are available) and other documents filed with the SEC at the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov, at the Company’s web site at www.jalexanders.com or by requesting copies from the Secretary of J. Alexander’s by telephone at (615) 269-1900.

Participants in the Merger Solicitation
