Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On August 7, 2003, Phoenix Footwear Group, Inc. (the “Company”) completed its acquisition of H.S. Trask & Co. (“H.S. Trask”), a Montana-based designer of men’s casual boots and shoes. Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 16, 2003, as amended, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, PFG Acquisition, Inc., purchased approximately 94% of the outstanding preferred stock of H.S. Trask in a cash tender offer for a price of $2,569,074, on August 6, 2003. The Company then purchased the remaining preferred stock, and all the common stock of H.S. Trask through a merger effected on August 7, 2003 between H.S. Trask and PFG Acquisition, Inc., in exchange for 700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and additional cash consideration of $295,817.
Based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on or about June 16, 2003, the date the Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended, was executed, the aggregate value of the consideration given was $6,063,800. The purchase price was determined through arm’s length negotiations between the parties. The cash portion of the purchase price was funded through an approximately $3.0 million term loan from Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company.
On August 8, 2003, the Company issued a press release announcing the completion of the acquisition of H.S. Trask & Co.
