Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership.

Voluntary Petition for Reorganization

On August 2, 2020 (the "Petition Date"), Tailored Brands, Inc. (the "Company") and certain of its subsidiaries (together with the Company, the "Debtors") commenced voluntary cases (the "Chapter 11 Cases") under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the "Bankruptcy Court"). The Bankruptcy Court has granted a motion seeking joint administration of the Chapter 11 Cases under the caption In re: Tailored Brands, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-33900 (MI). The Debtors will continue to 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 and the orders of the Bankruptcy Court. To ensure their ability to continue operating in the ordinary course of business, the Debtors have filed with the Bankruptcy Court motions seeking a variety of "first day" relief, including authority to access cash collateral and debtor-in-possession financing, pay employee wages and benefits, honor customer programs and pay vendors and suppliers in the ordinary course for all goods and services provided after the Petition Date.

Restructuring Support Agreement

On August 2, 2020, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates (together with the Company, the "Company Parties") entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (together with all exhibits and schedules thereto, the "RSA") with members of an ad hoc group of lenders (the "Consenting Term Loan Lenders") under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of June 18, 2014 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Term Loan Credit Agreement"), by and among, The Men's Wearhouse, Inc., ("Men's Wearhouse"), as borrower, certain of the Company Parties, as guarantors, Wilmington Savings Fund Society FSB (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.), as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto. In the aggregate, the Consenting Term Loan Lenders hold over 75 percent of the Debtor's first lien debt. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this "Restructuring Support Agreement" section of this Current Report on Form 8-K have the meanings given to them in the RSA.

The RSA contemplates a restructuring process that will establish a financially sustainable operating company ("Reorganized Tailored"). The contemplated restructuring process includes (i) the commencement by the Debtors of voluntary cases under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) the acquisition of the DIP ABL Facility (as defined below) from the Debtors' current ABL lenders, (iii) the Consenting Term Loan Lenders agreeing to compromise their prepetition claims in exchange for, among other things, exit debt and 100% of the new common stock of Reorganized Tailored; (iv) the Consenting Term Loan Lenders agreeing to the consensual use of cash collateral; and (v) the implementation of exit financing for Reorganized Tailored (which is described below), each on the terms set forth in the RSA.

The RSA contains various milestones, including the following: (a) within 5 days of the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered an interim order approving the DIP ABL Facility and the Debtors' use of the Cash Collateral, (b) within 10 business days of the Petition Date, the Debtors shall have filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court requesting an extension of the time within which the Debtors may assume or reject leases of nonresidential real property under section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code to 210 days following the Petition Date (the "365(d)(4) Motion"), (c) within 10 days of the Petition Date, the Debtors shall have filed a motion seeking to implement procedures for store closings, (d) within 14 days of the Petition Date, the Debtors shall have delivered a lease optimization plan and real estate plan in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Required Consenting Term Loan Lenders, (e) within 15 days of the Petition Date, the Debtors shall have filed the Plan and related disclosure statement (the "Disclosure Statement") with the Bankruptcy Court, on terms consistent with the Restructuring Term Sheet, (f) within 40 days of the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered a final order approving the DIP ABL Facility and the Debtors' use of the Cash Collateral (the "Final DIP Order"), (g) within 50 days of the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered an order approving the 365(d)(4) Motion, (h) the Debtors shall have provided the outcome of a lease optimization plan in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Required Consenting Term Loan Lenders prior to the hearing to consider approval of the Disclosure Statement, (i) within 70 days of the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered an order approving the Disclosure Statement, (j) within 105 days of the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court shall have entered an order approving the Plan and (k) within 120 days of the Petition Date, the Plan Effective Date shall have occurred.

The RSA also provides that the RSA may be terminated by the Required Consenting Term Loan Lenders or the Company Parties upon the occurrence of certain events set forth therein.

Although the Company Parties intend to pursue the restructuring contemplated by the RSA, there can be no assurance that the Company Parties will be successful in completing a restructuring or any other similar transaction on the terms set forth in the RSA or at all.

The foregoing description of the RSA is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the RSA, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 1.03.

Debtor-in-Possession Commitment Letter

On August 2, 2020, prior to commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company, Men's Wearhouse and Moores The Suit People Corp. ("MTSP") entered into a commitment letter (together with all exhibits and schedules thereto, the "Commitment Letter") with the parties listed on the signature pages thereto (the "Commitment Parties"), pursuant to which, and subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent contained therein, including the entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Interim Order (as defined in the "Form DIP Credit Agreement" attached as Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter), the Commitment Parties committed to provide to the Company a superpriority secured debtor-in-possession credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 under Sections 364(c) and 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code (the "DIP ABL Facility"). The DIP ABL Facility is expected to include conditions precedent, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for financings of this type and size. The proceeds of all or a portion of the proposed DIP ABL Facility may be used by the Debtors (i) to pay certain costs, fees and expenses related to the Chapter 11 . . .
