AMENDMENT NO. 22 TO SCHEDULE 13D

The following constitutes Amendment No. 22 (“Amendment No. 22”) to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned.  Such Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:

ITEM 3.
SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

Item 3 is hereby amended to add the following:

On May 23, 2010, Parent, Merger Sub, Fertitta and Landry’s entered into the First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “First Amendment”).  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, each outstanding share of Common Stock (other than shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (including the Rollover Stock), shares held in the treasury of Landry’s and shares owned by stockholders who perfect appraisal rights under applicable law) will be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive $24.00 in cash, without interest.  The aggregate value of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, is approximately $1.4 billion.

In connection with the First Amendment, on May 23, 2010, Fertitta and Parent amended the Equity Commitment Letter (the “Equity Commitment Amendment”) to reflect the amended per share consideration.

ITEM 4.
PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

Fertitta is the founder of Landry’s and is its current Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President.  Since Landry’s inception, he has been, directly or indirectly, Landry’s largest individual stockholder.

On May 23, 2010, Parent, Merger Sub, Fertitta and Landry’s entered into the First Amendment.  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, each outstanding share of Common Stock (other than shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (including the Rollover Stock), shares held in the treasury of Landry’s and shares owned by stockholders who perfect appraisal rights under applicable law) will be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive $24.00 in cash, without interest.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions in the Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, Merger Sub will merge with and into Landry’s with Landry’s being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).  As a result of the Merger, Landry’s will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent and the Common Stock will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and may, except as otherwise provided by the terms of Landry’s debt financing, be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Consummation of the Merger is subject to the approval of Landry’s stockholders, including approval by the holders of a majority of the Common Stock voted at the special meeting and not owned by Fertitta and Landry’s other directors named in a lawsuit currentl y pending in Delaware, and certain other customary closing conditions.

The Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, provides that, at the effective time of the Merger, Landry’s certificate of incorporation will be amended and restated as provided in the Merger Agreement and the bylaws of Merger Sub will become the bylaws of Landry’s, as the surviving corporation.  In addition, the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will become the directors of Landry’s, as the surviving corporation, and the officers of Landry’s will continue to serve as the officers of the surviving corporation.  The business will continue to be run under the “Landry’s” name after the closing of the Merger.

CUSIP NO. 51508L 10 3

Under the Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, Fertitta agreed to vote the 5,731,481 shares owned beneficially or of record by him and his affiliates as of June 16, 2008, plus up to the first 300,000 shares acquired upon exercise of his outstanding options, provided all such shares are held as of the record date for the special meeting, in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, and the approval of the Merger and any actions required in furtherance thereof.  Fertitta further agreed to vote 3,162,674 shares, plus up to the next 500,000 shares acquired upon exercise of his outstanding options (collectively, the “Excluded Fertitta Shares”), then owned beneficially or of record by him and his affiliates, as of the record date for the special meeting, in such p roportion as reflects the manner in which the shares owned by stockholders of Landry’s other than Fertitta and his affiliates are actually voted (with abstentions counted as “no” votes for purposes of calculating how the Excluded Fertitta Shares are voted), with respect to (i) the adoption of the Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, and the approval of the Merger and any actions required in furtherance thereof, and (ii) any acquisition proposal that results in the termination of the Merger Agreement.  In addition, Fertitta agreed to certain transfer and standstill restrictions with respect to his shares.

The summary of the First Amendment contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
