Item 1.01        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 27, 2011, Good Times Restaurants Inc. and its subsidiary Good Times Drive Thru Inc. (together, the "Company") entered into a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Waiver of Defaults with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the "Bank") and a Second Amended and Restated Term Note payable to the Bank in the principal amount of $470,874.00 (together the "Amendments").

The Amendments provide for a reduction in the principal amount of the loan by an additional $100,000 intended to be paid from the proceeds of the sale of a restaurant, the release of collateral associated with that restaurant and a modification to the repayment terms and maturity date of the loan to December 31, 2013.  The Amendments waive the current covenant defaults asserted by the Bank and modify certain financial covenants in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement which as modified require the Company to have a Net Worth not less than $2,500,000 as of December 31, 2012 and thereafter, a ratio of Total Liabilities divided by Tangible Net Worth of not greater than 3.0 to 1.0 at any time, and an EBITDA Coverage Ratio not less than (i) 0.30 to 1.00 as of the end of the third quarter ending June 30, 2012, (ii) 0.70 to 1.00 as of the end of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2012, and (iii) .90 to 1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter, determined on a rolling 4-quarter basis.  Pursuant to the Amendments, the Company is also required to prepay its term loan up to the full outstanding principal balance of the note (in addition to any and all other obligations due to Bank including under any interest rate swap agreement) upon the sale of any stock or other equity interest in the Company.  Repayment of the loan is secured by equipment in various restaurants owned by the Company.

A copy of the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Waiver of Defaults dated December 27, 2011 is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.

A copy of the Second Amended and Restated Term Note December 27, 2011 is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and is hereby incorporated by reference.

Information contained in this report, other than historical information, may be considered forward looking in nature and is subject to known and unknown risks, which may cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from results expressed or implied by the forward looking information.  These risks include such factors as the pending and uncertain nature of the Company's efforts to obtain a waiver for a loan agreement default, the pending and uncertain nature of the Company's efforts to obtain additional financing, the pending and uncertain nature of the Company's new brand initiatives, delays in developing and opening new restaurants due to adverse credit market and other economic conditions, weather, local permitting matters, increased competition, cost increases or shortages in raw food products, continued widespread adverse economic conditions and other matters discussed in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.  Although the Company may from time to time voluntarily update its forward looking statements, it disclaims any commitment to do so except as required by securities laws.
