ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS

        On September 27, 2002, Guess?, Inc. (the "Company") and two of its subsidiaries, Guess? Retail, Inc. and Guess.com, Inc., entered into a new credit facility led by Wachovia Securities, Inc., as Arranger and Administrative Agent ("New Facility"), which replaces a previous credit agreement. The term of the New Facility is for a period of four years and provides for a maximum line of credit of $85 million, including a $47.5 million sub-limit for letters of credit. Borrowings available under the New Facility are subject to a borrowing base and outstanding borrowings are secured by inventory, accounts receivable and substantially all other personal property of the borrowers. For borrowings under the New Facility, the Company may elect an interest rate based on either the Prime Rate or a Eurodollar rate plus a margin, which fluctuates depending on availability under the New Facility and the Company's financial performance as measured by a cash flow test. This margin ranges from 0 to 75 basis points for Prime Rate loans and from 175 to 250 basis points for Eurodollar rate loans. Commitment fees for unused borrowings up to $60 million under the New Facility are 37.5 basis points. The New Facility requires the Company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth if excess availability under the New Facility is less that $20 million.
