Amendment No. 2 to
Schedule 13D
This amends the Schedule 13D dated August 15, 1997 (the "Schedule
13D"), as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated August 21, 1997 filed by Dickstein &
Co., L.P. ("Dickstein & Co."), Dickstein Focus Fund L.P. ("Dickstein Focus"),
Dickstein International Limited ("Dickstein International"), Dickstein Partners,
L.P. ("Dickstein Partners"), Dickstein Partners Inc. ("Dickstein Inc.") and Mark
Dickstein with respect to the Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"),
of The Leslie Fay Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company").
Notwithstanding this Amendment No. 2, the Schedule 13D speaks as of its date.
Capitalized terms used without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in
the Schedule 13D.
I. Item 3 of the Schedule 13D "Source and Amount of Funds or
Other Consideration," is amended and restated as follows:
"The shares of Common Stock reported to be owned by Dickstein &
Co., Dickstein Focus, Dickstein International and Mark Dickstein were acquired
in the open market. The total cost of the reported shares by Dickstein & Co.,
Dickstein Focus, Dickstein International and Mark Dickstein is $3,366,934.25,
$1,132,361.75, $586,549.50 and $167,380, respectively. Such costs were funded
out of working capital (and in the case of Mark Dickstein, personal funds),
which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in
the ordinary course of business."
II. Items 5(a) and 5(c) of the Schedule 13D "Interest in
Securities of the Issuer" are amended and restated as follows:
"(a) The Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of
784,606 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 23.1% of the Common
Stock outstanding. Dickstein & Co. owns 519,931 of such shares, representing
approximately 15.3% of the Common Stock outstanding, Dickstein Focus owns
139,200 of such shares, representing approximately 4.1% of the Common Stock
outstanding, Dickstein International owns 93,596 of such shares, representing
approximately 2.8% of the Common Stock outstanding, and Mark Dickstein owns
31,879 of such shares, representing approximately 1% of the Common Stock
outstanding.2 The Common Stock was issued pursuant to the Issuer's Amended Joint
Plan of Reorganization (the "POR") dated December 5, 1996. The POR was
consummated on June 4, 1997. On May 1, 1997, certain of the Reporting Persons
agreed to purchase, in an open market transaction, on an "if and when issued"
basis, an aggregate of 540,000 shares of Common Stock. 430,368 of the shares of
Common Stock included in this transaction settled on July 23, 1997 after the
consummation of the POR and are included in the percentages stated above. The
balance of the shares (109,632) are scheduled to settle on or about November 3,
1997 for a price of $5.25 per share. 85,269 of these shares will be acquired by
Dickstein & Co., 16,242 of these shares will be acquired by Dickstein
International and 8,121 of these shares will be acquired by Mark Dickstein.
These shares are not included in the percentages stated above.
- -----------------
2 Percentages are based upon 3,400,000 shares of Common Stock reported
outstanding as of August 2, 1997 in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended July 5, 1997.
- 8 -
<PAGE>
On August 20, 1997, certain of the Reporting Persons agreed to acquire
from a third party ("Seller"), on a so-called "if and when issued" basis, an
aggregate of up to 133,995 shares (the "Subject Shares") of Common Stock at a
price (including commission) of $7.83 per share. The Seller's obligation to sell
the Subject Shares to the Reporting Persons is contingent upon the issuance
pursuant to the POR of such shares to Seller's counter-party upon the resolution
of certain pre-petition claims. 94,995 of these shares will be acquired by
Dickstein & Co., 17,000 of these shares will be acquired by Dickstein
International and 22,000 of these shares will be acquired by Dickstein Focus.
These shares are not included in the percentages stated above.
Mark Kaufman, a Vice President of Dickstein Inc., owns 1,000
shares of Common Stock.
(c) Except for the transactions described in Item 5(a) above and
the transactions set forth on Schedule II annexed hereto, Schedule II to the
Schedule 13D and Schedule II to the Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D, none of
the persons identified in Item 2 has effected any transactions in the Common
Stock during the past 60 days. All such transactions were effected in the open
market."
