Item 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On February 17, 1995, Crystal Brands, Inc. (the "Company"), which
is operating under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, and five of its
subsidiaries consummated the sale of substantially all of the
Company's and its subsidiaries' assets (exclusive of cash and cash
equivalents) to Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation ("PVH") for a cash
purchase price of $114,700,000, subject to a post-closing adjustment
based upon the Company's tangible net worth as of the closing date.
The purchase price was determined based upon arm's-length negotiations
between the Company and PVH. The assets sold comprise Crystal Brands'
apparel and retail businesses and include its Gant, Izod and Salty Dog
trademarks. The Company has no continuing operating businesses.
The Company intends to propose a Chapter 11 plan pursuant to
which it will liquidate its remaining assets and distribute its cash
to its creditors. No distributions will be made to its stockholders
and all outstanding shares of the Company's stock will be cancelled in
connection with its liquidation. Accordingly, no pro forma financial
statements are being filed with this report, and the Company will not
be filing an Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended
December 31, 1994.
