Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial
Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.
On December 18, 2006, Casual Male Retail Group, Inc. (the "Company") provided
notice to the holders of the Company's 5% Convertible Senior Subordinated
Notes due January 1, 2024 (the "Convertible Notes") that it will be redeeming
$40 million principal amount of the Convertible Notes on January 8, 2007. At
December 18, 2006, $94.8 million principal amount of the Convertible Notes were
outstanding.
The notice requires that all note-holders who wish to convert their Convertible
Notes into shares of Casual Male's Common Stock must give proper notice to the
trustee on or before January 5, 2007. Each $1,000 in principal amount of
Convertible Notes may be converted into 93.8967 shares of Common Stock. The
Company will issue cash in lieu of any fractional shares.
Because the shares of the Company's Common Stock is currently trading above the
conversion price of the Convertible Notes ($10.65 per share), the Company
expects that note-holders will choose to convert their Convertible Notes into
Common Stock, as a result of the redemption. It is currently the Company's
intention to redeem the balance of the notes shortly after the redemption
date, subject to certain conditions.
This notice of redemption, along with the Company's announcement of a
$75 million Stock Repurchase Plan, was included in a press release that was
issued on December 18, 2006, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The discussion of forward-looking information requires management of the
Company to make certain estimates and assumptions regarding the Company's
strategic direction and the effect of such plans on the Company's financial
results. The Company's actual results and the implementation of its plans and
operations may differ materially from forward-looking statements made by the
Company. The Company encourages readers of forward-looking information
concerning the Company to refer to its prior filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission that set forth certain risks and uncertainties that may have
an impact on future results and direction of the Company.
