SECTION 5. SHELF REGISTRATION
5.1 Shelf Registration. (a) London Fog shall prepare and, at any time

Registration Statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3, as appropriate, relating to the
offer and sale of the Registerable Securities by the Holders from time to time
in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in such Registration
Statement (the "Shelf Registration Statement").
(b) London Fog shall use its best reasonable efforts to have the Shelf
Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act by the
Commission no later than 135 days after the filing thereof and shall keep the
Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective for a period of two years
from the date on which the Shelf Registration Statement is declared
17
effective under the Securities Act or such shorter period (in either such case,
such period being called the "Shelf Registration Period") that will terminate
when either (i) all the Registerable Securities covered by the Shelf
Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration
Statement or (ii) all the Registerable Securities are eligible for sale pursuant
to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act. London Fog shall be deemed
not to have used its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration
Statement effective during the Shelf Registration Period if it voluntarily takes
any action that would result in Holders of Registerable Securities covered
thereby not being able to offer and sell such Registerable Securities during the
Shelf Registration Period unless such action is required by applicable law;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to actions taken by London
Fog in good faith and for valid business reasons (not including avoidance of its
obligations hereunder and under the other Restructuring Documents), including,
without limitation, the acquisition or divestiture of assets, so long as London
Fog within 120 days thereafter complies with the requirements of subsection
5.2(h). Any such period during which London Fog fails to keep the Shelf
Registration Statement effective and usable for offers and sales of Registerable
Securities is referred to as a "Suspension Period." A Suspension Period shall
commence on and include the date that London Fog gives notice that the Shelf
Registration Statement is no longer effective or the Prospectus included therein
is no longer usable for offers and sales of Registerable Securities and shall
end on the date when each Holder of Registerable Securities covered by such
Shelf Registration Statement either receives the copies of the supplemented or
amended Prospectus contemplated by subsection 5.2(h) or is advised in writing by
London Fog that use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If one or more Suspension
Periods occur, the two-year time period referenced above shall be extended by
the number of days included in each such Suspension Period.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, London Fog will
ensure that (i) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and
any Prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all
material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder, (ii) any Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto (in
either case, other than with respect to information included therein in reliance
upon or in conformity with written information furnished to London Fog by or on
behalf of any Holder specifically for use therein (the "Holders' Information"))
does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any Prospectus forming
part of any Shelf Registration Statement, and any supplement to such Prospectus
(in either case, other than with respect to the Holders' Information), does not
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
(d) In the event the Shelf Registration Statement is filed on Form
S-1, upon satisfaction of the requirements therefor, London Fog may amend the
Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-1 to become a Registration Statement on
Form S-3.
5.2 Registration Procedures. In connection with the Shelf Registration
Statement, the following provisions shall apply:
18
(a) London Fog shall furnish to each Holder, prior to the filing
thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and
each amendment thereto and each supplement, if any, to the Prospectus
included therein and shall use reasonable efforts to reflect in each such
document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as one counsel
for the Holders reasonably may propose.
(b) London Fog shall advise each Holder, and, if requested by any such
Holder, confirm such advice in writing (which advice pursuant to clauses
(ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use
of the Prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement until the
requisite changes have been made):
(i) when the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto
has been filed with the Commission and when such Shelf Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
(ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to
the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus included therein or for
additional information;
(iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or the initiation of
any proceedings for that purpose;
(iv) of the receipt by London Fog of any notification with respect to
the suspension of the qualification of the Registerable Securities for sale
in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for
such purpose; and
(v) of the happening of any event that requires the making of any
changes in the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that, as
of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading.
(c) London Fog shall use its best reasonable efforts to obtain the
withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf
Registration Statement at the earliest possible time.
(d) London Fog shall furnish to each Holder of Registerable Securities
included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration Statement, without
charge, at least one copy of such Shelf Registration Statement and any
post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and

(including those incorporated by reference).
19
(e) London Fog shall, during the Shelf Registration Period, promptly
deliver to each Holder of Registerable Securities included within the
coverage of the Shelf Registration Statement, without charge, as many
copies of the Prospectus (including each Preliminary Prospectus) included
in such Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement
thereto as any such Holder may reasonably request; and London Fog consents
to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each
of the selling Holders of Registerable Securities in connection with the
offering and sale of the Registerable Securities covered by the Prospectus
or any amendment or supplement thereto.
(f) Prior to any public offering of Registerable Securities pursuant
to the Shelf Registration Statement, London Fog shall use its best
reasonable efforts to register, qualify or cooperate with the Holders of
Registerable Securities included therein and their respective counsel in
connection with the registration or qualification of such Registerable
Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such
jurisdictions as any such Holder reasonably requests in writing and do any
and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and
sale in such jurisdictions of the Registerable Securities covered by such
Shelf Registration Statement; provided, however, that London Fog shall not
be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where
it is not then so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to
general service of process or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it
is not then so subject.
(g) London Fog shall cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the
timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registerable
Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement free of
any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such
names as the Holders may request in writing prior to sales of Registerable
Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement.
(h) If (i) any event contemplated by clauses (b)(ii) through (v) above
occurs during the Shelf Registration Period or (ii) any Suspension Period
remains in effect more than 120 days after the occurrence of any event
contemplated by clauses (b)(ii) through (v) above, London Fog will promptly
prepare a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or a
supplement to the related Prospectus or file any other required document so
that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registerable Securities
from a Holder, the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.
(i) Not later than the effective date of the Shelf Registration
Statement, London Fog shall provide a CUSIP number for the Registerable
Securities and provide the applicable trustee or transfer agent with
printed certificates for the Registerable Securities, as the case may be,
in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

(j) London Fog shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations
of the Commission and will make generally available to the Holders as soon
as practicable after the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement
an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the
Securities Act; provided that in no event shall such earnings statement be
delivered later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90
days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of
London Fog's first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of
the applicable Registration Statement, which statements shall cover such
12-month period.
(k) London Fog shall cause the New Subordinated Note Indenture to be
qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, as required by
applicable law in a timely manner.

be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to London
Fog such information regarding such Holder and the distribution of such
Registerable Securities as London Fog may, from time to time, reasonably
require for inclusion in such Shelf Registration Statement, and London Fog
may exclude from such registration the Registerable Securities of any
Holder that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time
after receiving such request.
(m) Each Holder agrees by acquisition of the Registerable Securities
that, upon receipt of any notice from London Fog (i) of a Suspension Period
under subsection 5.1(b) or (ii) pursuant to subsection 5.2(b)(ii) through

Registerable Securities held by it until such Holder's receipt of copies of
the supplemental or amended Prospectus contemplated by subsection 5.2(h)
hereof or until advised in writing (the "Advice") by London Fog that the
use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed. If London Fog shall give
any notice under subsection 5.2(b)(ii) through (v) during the Shelf
Registration Period, the two-year period referenced in the definition of
"Shelf Registration Period" in subsection 5.1(b) shall be extended by the
number of days during such period from and including the date of the giving
of such notice to and including the date when each seller of Registerable
Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement shall have received

subsection 5.2(h) (if an amended or supplemental Prospectus is required) or
(y) the Advice (if no amended or supplemental Prospectus is required).
