ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 20, 2007, Casual Male Retail Group, Inc. (the "Company") amended
its credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. by executing the Third
Amendment to Fifth Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the
"Third Amendment"). The Third Amendment extends the maturity date of the credit
facility to October 29, 2011 and extends the Company's current Last Out Advance
Percentage, as defined in the Third Amendment, of 10% through, but excluding,
December 28, 2008. On and after December 28, 2008, the Last Out Advance
Percentage will be 5 %. The Third Amendment also permits the formation of
new wholly-owned subsidiaries, which will directly or indirectly own 100%
membership in CMRG Apparel, LLC.
The foregoing description of the Third Amendment does not purport to summarize
all of its respective provisions and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to such agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K,
which is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of
Certain Officers.
The Company has adopted a revised Nonqualified Compensation Plan (the "Plan")
for the purposes of providing deferred compensation for a select group of the
Company's management and highly compensated employees who are not able to
fully benefit under the Company's existing qualified 401(k) plan due to
their highly compensated status. As a result of the Company's adoption of
a "safe harbor 401(k) plan", effective January 1, 2008, the "Wraparound"
provisions of the previous Nonqualified Compensation Plan are no longer
needed and have been eliminated from the Plan. In addition, effective
January 1, 2008, the Company will cease to have nondiscrimination testing
performed to determine the maximum amount of Employer Matching Contributions
that may be contributed on behalf of each participant of the Plan. Lastly,
the Company will no longer make a mandatory matching contribution under this
Plan but may make discretionary matching contributions if it so chooses.
