Item 1.01Item 1.01 - Entry into Material Agreement
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. Transition Services Agreement On the Closing Date, Marc Jacobs International, L.L.C. (“Marc Jacobs International”), LVMH and, solely for guaranty purposes, Purchaser, WH Borrower, LLC (“Purchaser Parent”) and the Company entered into a Transition Services Agreement (the “TSA”), pursuant to which, following Closing, LVMH and/or third-party providers will provide certain transition services to Marc Jacobs International and its subsidiaries. Pursuant to the TSA, the Company guaranteed the due, prompt and full performance by Marc Jacobs International and its subsidiaries of all of their payment and indemnification obligations arising under the TSA. License Agreement On the Closing Date, IPCo, G-III Leather Fashions, Inc. and G-III Apparel Canada, ULC (together with G-III Leather Fashions, Inc., the “Licensee”), entered into a License Agreement (the “License Agreement”), pursuant to which IPCo granted an exclusive license to the Licensee to use the Marc Jacobs brands and related intellectual property held by IPCo, as well as certain other intellectual property rights developed in the future in the United States, Canada, Mexico and Western Europe for the operation of Marc Jacobs-branded retail stores and branded e-commerce sites and the distribution, sale and promotion of specified categories of products, including women’s and men’s apparel, handbags, footwear, swim, small leather goods, luggage and cold weather accessories (through wholesale, branded retail stores and branded e-commerce sites). The Licensee will also provide certain services to IPCo’s other licensees, distributors and franchisees, including information related to research and development, designs and packaging and will assist IPCo in overseeing compliance with the Marc Jacobs brand guidelines by such third parties. The initial term of the License Agreement is from the Closing Date through December 2041, and the License Agreement automatically renews for 10 successive periods of 5 years each (unless the Licensee provides notice of non-renewal at least 18 months prior to the end of the initial or applicable renewal term). The License Agreement is terminable by IPCo if the Licensee breaches its obligation to make required payments or otherwise materially breaches the License Agreement, in each case subject to an opportunity to cure such breach within a specified period of time. Amended and Restated Operating Agreement On the Closing Date, G-III Investments, Inc. (the “G-III Member”) and MJWHP, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“WHP Member”), entered into the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of IPCo (the “A&R Operating Agreement”), pursuant to which IPCo will have a single class of membership interests (the “Units”), with the G-III Member owning 50% of the Units and the WHP Member owning 50% of the Units. IPCo will be governed by a board of managers initially consisting of five managers, with two managers appointed by the G-III Member and three managers appointed by the WHP Member, which is subject to change in the future based on the relative ownership percentages of the G-III Member and the WHP Member in IPCo, and other circumstances provided in the A&R Operating Agreement. Certain decisions (including amendments to the A&R Operating Agreement, mergers, acquisitions, dispositions, incurrence of indebtedness above certain thresholds, related party transactions and bankruptcy) require approval of both members for so long as they continue to own certain ownership percentages. Pursuant to the A&R Operating Agreement, the G-III Member and the WHP Member generally may not transfer their Units prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date (other than to permitted transferees or with the prior written consent of the other member). After the third anniversary of the Closing Date, each party may transfer its respective Units but subject to a right of first offer and tag along right in favor of the other parties. The foregoing description of the A&R Operating Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the A&R Operating Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
