On
November 6, 2006,
Iconix
Brand Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”), completed its
acquisition of certain of the assets (the “OP Assets”) of Ocean Pacific Apparel
Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”) and subsidiary of The Warnaco
Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), pursuant to an Asset
Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 31, 2006, among the Registrant, the
Seller and the Parent (the “Purchase Agreement”). The aggregate purchase price
paid was $54,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”). A copy of the Purchase Agreement
was previously filed as an exhibit to the Registrant’s Current Report on Form
8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 6, 2006 (the
“Initial Form 8-K”) and is incorporated herein by reference.
In
accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the
Registrant paid the Seller $10,000,000 in cash at the closing and issued to
the
Seller a promissory note (in the form of Exhibit A attached to the Purchase
Agreement), secured by the OP Assets (the “Note”), for the remaining $44,000,000
of the Purchase Price. The Note bears interest at a rate of 7% and becomes
payable in full, together with accrued interest, by the Registrant on December
31, 2006 (the “Maturity Date”), subject to certain extension provisions set
forth in the Note. On or prior to the Maturity Date, the Registrant may elect,
subject to the terms and conditions of the Note, to pay up to $27,000,000 of
the
principal of the Note through the issuance of shares of its common stock, as
more fully set forth in the Note (the
“Shares”). If the Registrant pays the Seller an amount due under the Note
greater than or equal to $25,000,000 in cash by the Maturity Date, then the
Registrant may elect to extend the Maturity Date of the Note until January
31,
2007 (the “Extended Maturity Date”), at which time the Registrant must pay the
Seller not less than $5,500,000 of the outstanding amount of the Note in cash
at
the Extended Maturity Date. If the Registrant elects to pay a portion of the
principal amount of the Note through the issuance of Shares, the Registrant
shall file a registration statement on Form S-3, if eligible, or other
appropriate form with respect to the Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions
of a registration rights agreement (in substantially the form of Exhibit C
attached to the Note) (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). If
Shares
(the number of which is not yet determinable and would be based on a future
price of the Registrant’s common stock) are issued to the Seller under the Note,
the Shares would be issued without registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided
under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for issuances that do not involve
a
public offering.
In
accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement,
following the closing, the Registrant contributed the OP Assets to OP Holdings,
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect, wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Registrant (“OP Holdings”), pursuant to a contribution
agreement. The Seller delivered all of its right, title and interest in the
OP
Assets to OP Holdings and OP Holdings entered into a product license agreement
with the Parent.
The
description of the Purchase Agreement, the Note and the Registration Rights
Agreement (collectively, the “Ocean Pacific Transaction Documents”) do not
purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to
the
full text of the Ocean Pacific Transaction Documents, which are filed as
exhibits to the Initial Form 8-K. The Ocean Pacific Transaction Documents have
been incorporated herein to provide investors and security holders with
information regarding their terms. It is not intended to provide any other
factual information about the Registrant or the other parties thereto. The
Purchase Agreement contains representations and warranties the parties thereto
made to, and solely for the benefit of, the other parties thereto. Accordingly,
investors and security holders should not rely on the representations and
warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts, since they were
only made as of the date of such agreement. In addition, the Purchase Agreement
is modified by the underlying disclosure schedules. Moreover, information
concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change
after the date of such agreement, which subsequent information may or may not
be
fully reflected in the Registrant’s public disclosures.

the press release announcing the
closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement
is
furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
