Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On November 15, 1999, with an effective date of October 31,1999, Cygne
Designs, Inc. (the "Company") consummated the sale of its Knit business to
Jordache Limited pursuant to, the Amended and Restated Acquisition Agreement
dated as of August 1, 1999, by and among M.T.G.I.- Textiles Manufacturing Group
(Israel) Ltd. ("MTGI"), MBS(Cygne) Company, A.C. Services, Inc. and Jordache
Limited.
The assets transferred to Jordache consist of substantially all of the
assets used by the Knit business in the manufacture of women's Knit clothing,
including machinery, equipment, raw materials, leases, rental agreements,
supplies used in the business, furniture, computer hardware and software, and
certain operating data and the records of MTGI and network equipment, as well as
all of the outstanding stock of Wear & Co. S.r.l ("Wear"). MTGI is the Company's
wholly-owned Israeli subsidiary and Wear was the Company's wholly-owned Italian
subsidiary.
The sale did not include cash, accounts receivable and certain other assets
of the MTGI business.
The liabilities assigned to, and assumed by, Jordache are all obligations
of MTGI under the contracts and registration included within the assets sold to
Jordache. In consideration of the sale to Jordache of the assets, Jordache paid
the Company consideration equal to (a) the adjusted net book value of the
inventory, fixed assets, advances to vendors and an investment in a dye house
facility owned by MTGI, all subject to posting closing adjustments, less an
amount equal to the difference between (I) the sum (a) $80,000 and (b) MTGI's
income before taxes for the period from August 1, 1999 to October 31,1999 and
(i) the operating expense of Wear & Co. International, Inc., the U.S. marketing
company for MTGI and (ii) $100,000 for the outstanding stock of Wear and assumed
liabilities described above. In addition, Jordache has paid Cygne a commission
of $600,000 on unfilled orders for products included the assets and $400,000 for
a non-compete payment in the transaction. The Company received a note from
Jordache in the amount of $2,717,062 due November 30, 1999 and cash of $500,000.
The Company will use the proceeds from the sale to fund transaction expenses and
taxes related to the sale, and together with retained cash and collections of
MTGI accounts receivable, repay bank borrowings related to MTGI and other MTGI
liabilities including severance of $800,000 to Jonathon Kafri, who ran the Knit
business.
