Independent Auditors' Report
The Board of Directors
TPC-York, Inc. (formerly The Pfaltzgraff Co.):
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
The Pfaltzgraff Co. and subsidiaries (the Company), a wholly-
owned subsidiary of Susquehanna Pfaltzgraff Co., as of December
31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholder's equity and cash flows for each of the
years in the three year period ended December 31, 2004. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration
of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for
designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of The Pfaltzgraff Co. and subsidiaries as
of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the
three year period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.

1.Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations - The Pfaltzgraff Co. (the Company)
is a manufacturer, wholesaler and retailer of dinnerware
and complementary housewares. The Company distributes
its product primarily in the United States.
Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company and its
subsidiaries, The Pfaltzgraff Outlet Co., The Pfaltzgraff
Manufacturing Co., Treasure Craft, Inc., Pfaltzgraff
Canada, Ltd. and Pfaltzgraff Investment Co. The Company
is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Susquehanna Pfaltzgraff
Co. (the Parent). All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions are eliminated.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial
Statements - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Credit Risk - Concentrations of credit risk include cash
and accounts receivable. The Company deposits its cash
in high-quality financial institutions. Periodically,
deposited balances may exceed FDIC-insured maximums.
Accounts receivable are largely from retail businesses
whose ability to pay is subject to changes in general
economic conditions. Credit risk is managed by credit
and collection controls. The allowance for doubtful
accounts is determined using historical experience,
payment trends and credit information in the context of
existing economic conditions. Three customers made up
the following percentages of accounts receivable and
revenues for the years ended
2004 2003 2002
Accounts Receivable 66% 67% 48%
Revenues 14% 16% 12%
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all
highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Inventories - Inventories manufactured by the Company in
the United States of America and certain sourced items
are valued at the lower of last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost
or market. Other inventories are valued at the lower of
first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost or market.

1.Significant Accounting Policies, continued
Property, Plant and Equipment - These assets are stated
at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed
using the straight-line method for financial statement
purposes based on the following ranges of estimated
useful lives:
Buildings and improvements 10 to 40 years
Machinery and equipment 3 to 20 years
Depreciation and amortization expense was $4.7 million,
$6.3 million and $7.3 million for the years ended
December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Asset additions and major renovations are capitalized and
depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
Periodically, asset lives are reviewed and adjusted based
on facts and circumstances. Costs of maintenance,
repairs and minor renovations are charged against income.
Gains or losses on dispositions are credited to or
charged against income. The costs and accumulated
depreciation related to dispositions are removed from the
accounts.
Revenue Recognition - Revenues are recognized on shipment
of inventory or retail sale. Returns are reflected as a
reduction of revenues. The Company estimates expected
sales returns and allowances based on a periodic
historical review and other factors. The company records
shipping and handling charged to its customers in
Revenues and the related cost of shipping and handling in
Cost of Sales.
Advertising - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets - The Company evaluates
the recoverability of its long-lived assets including
property, plant and equipment whenever events or changes
in circumstances suggest the carrying values may not be
recoverable. Analyses based on undiscounted cash flows
generated by the related operations and appraisals,
trends or other indicators of fair value are used in
these evaluations. If the asset's carrying value exceeds
the indicated fair value, a loss is recognized for the
difference between the fair value and the asset's
carrying value.
Interest - Interest paid was $0.6 million, $0.8 million
and $0.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2004,
2003 and 2002, respectively.
Income Taxes - The Company uses the asset and liability
method of accounting for income taxes. The benefit for
income taxes includes income taxes currently payable and
those deferred. Deferred income taxes reflect the future
tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax
bases of assets and liabilities and their financial
reporting balances at each year-end. Changes in enacted
tax rates are reflected in income taxes as they occur.
7
1.Significant Accounting Policies, continued
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In January 2003, the
FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No.
51," (FIN 46). FIN 46 addresses the consolidation by
business enterprises of variable interest entities as
defined in the Interpretation. FIN 46 applied
immediately to variable interests in variable interest
entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable
interests in variable interest entities obtained after
January 31, 2003. In December 2003, FASB issued FIN 46R,
a revision of FIN 46, that delayed implementation for
entities other than Special Purpose Entities. The
Company must adopt FIN 46R in 2005. FIN 46R's impact has
not yet been determined.
2.Long-term Debt
Long-term debt as of December 31, was as follows (in
thousands):
2004 2003
Notes Payable -
Revolving credit loans $ 9,139 $ 7,633
The revolving credit loan's stated value approximated its
fair value. A credit agreement provided a revolving
credit facility with a maximum commitment up to $30
million. Availability under the credit facility at any
time was limited to a percentage of eligible accounts
receivable and inventory. As of December 31, 2004, $4.9
million was available for borrowing under the facility.
The credit facility was available for working capital and
capital expenditure requirements and was scheduled to
mature in March 2006. The credit facility was repaid in
July 2005 (see Note 10). Borrowings were secured by the
Company's assets and were guaranteed by all domestic
subsidiaries. On October 20, 2004, an amendment to the
credit agreement was signed. The amendment changed the
minimum adjusted net worth requirement and added a
minimum excess availability requirement.
Interest rates on borrowings were at the prime rate plus
up to 0.5% or at LIBOR plus 2.25% to 2.75%. As of
December 31, 2004, the interest rate was 4.93%. Interest
rates may be fixed for periods up to 180 days. Interest
was payable monthly on prime and LIBOR-based loans. The
Company could utilize up to $10 million of the facility
for letters of credit. As of December 31, 2004, $2.5
million of letters of credit were outstanding. A fee of
up to 0.5% of the facility's unused amount was payable
monthly. The credit facility limited the Company's
ability to pay dividends, make capital expenditures and
acquisitions, and make payments to related parties.
8
3.Inventories
Inventories as of December 31, were comprised of (in
thousands):
2004 2003
Finished goods $ 17,645 $ 23,048
Work-in-process 6,540 8,254
Raw materials 1,771 2,650
$ 25,956 $ 33,952
LIFO increments were costed using the link-chain method.
External indices were used to determine the effect of
price changes for manufactured and sourced item pools.
If all inventories were valued at the lower of FIFO cost
or market, inventory values at December 31, 2004 and 2003
would have been $32.0 million and $40.0 million,
respectively. Using the FIFO method would have increased
the loss from continuing operations by $1.1 million in
2004, would not have changed the 2003 loss from continuing
operations and would have decreased the 2002 loss from
continuing operations by $0.4 million. A decrement in
LIFO inventories increased the loss from continuing
operations for 2003 by $0.6 million.
Retail and other inventories, valued at the lower of FIFO
cost or market, were $9.0 million and $13.4 million at
December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
4.Income Taxes
Components of the benefit for income taxes for the years
ended December 31, were as follows (in thousands):
2004 2003 2002
Current
Federal $ 6,136 $ 8,255 $ 3,804

Total deferred (144) (613) (996)
Benefit for Income Taxes $ 5,730 $ 7,589 $ 2,541
9
4.Income Taxes, continued
Income taxes paid in 2004, 2003 and 2002 were $0.2
million, $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
The Company is included in its Parent's consolidated
federal income tax return. The Company's tax provision
is first computed on a separate return basis. The
consolidated federal income tax expense is allocated pro
rata to all return group members. In accordance with a
tax sharing agreement among its Parent and other
subsidiaries, the Company receives pro rata benefit for
losses that reduce income taxes paid or payable on a
consolidated basis. Income taxes receivable from Parent
arise from losses utilized in the consolidated federal
income tax return. The tax sharing account must be
settled with the Parent if the Company leaves the
consolidated federal income tax return, or earlier at the
Parent's sole discretion. During the year ended December
31, 2004, $2.0 million was received from the Parent and
recognized as a reduction of income taxes receivable from
parent.
At December 31, 2004 and 2003, deferred tax assets and
liabilities resulted from the following temporary
differences (in thousands):
2004 2003
Deferred Tax Assets
Allowance for doubtful accounts $ 138 $ 135

The Company had $121.3 million and $111.7 million of
state net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31,
2004 and 2003, respectively.
The Company has established a full valuation allowance
for the tax effects of these state income tax loss
carryforwards as utilization is uncertain. No current
tax benefits were provided for these losses.

4.Income Taxes, continued
One of the Company's foreign subsidiaries has established
a full valuation allowance for its net operating loss
carryforwards of $5.7 million and $5.3 million at
December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The balance in

5.Employee Benefits
Full-time employees participated in the Parent's Employee
Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). ESOP benefit costs of $2.2
million, $2.4 million and $4.3 million were recognized
for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. Effective January 1, 2005, the Company's
employees ceased participation in the Parent's ESOP and
became fully vested in their accounts.
Certain full-time employees of the Company and its
subsidiaries were covered by the Parent's noncontributory
qualified defined benefit pension plans (the Plans).
Benefits under the Plans were based on employees' years
of service and earnings over part or all of their careers
through April 1999, when benefit accruals ceased and the
ESOP was instituted.

5.Employee Benefits, continued
The Parent's funding policy for the Plans is to make
contributions, as required by various regulations, not to
exceed the maximum amounts deductible for federal income
tax purposes. The Plans' assets, primarily listed bonds
and stocks, are held by independent trustees.
The weighted average discount rate used in determining
the actuarial present value of the Plans' projected
benefit obligations was 5.74%, 6.10% and 6.75% for 2004,
2003 and 2002, respectively. The expected long-term rate
of return on the Plans' assets was 8.75% for all three
years.
The Parent also sponsors a defined contribution (401K)
plan, which covers all full-time employees. The plan
matches 75% of the first 2% of eligible compensation
contributed by a participant. The match for Company
employees was suspended September 1, 2003 as a cost-
savings measure. The Company contributed $0.3 million
to the plan for both the years ended December 31, 2003
and 2002. No contribution was made in 2004.
6.Lease Commitments
Total operating lease expenses recognized were $7.6
million, $8.9 million and $9.6 million for the years
ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

under non-cancelable operating leases
are as follows (in thousands):
2005 $ 6,029 2008 $ 2,543
2006 4,530 2009 1,675

administrative services from its Parent at a cost of $4.2
million, $4.5 million and $5.9 million for the years
ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Included in operating leases for the years ended
December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 were $0.8 million,
$1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for
office and warehouse space rented from its Parent and
a related partnership. These leases represent $0.7
million in annual rental commitments under non-
cancelable operating leases in each year through 2009.
From 2010 though 2012, the related party annual rental
commitment is $0.2 million.
13
8.Restructuring and Closing
The Company stopped production at its Nogales, Mexico
facility in November 2003 and completed the facility's
closing in March 2004. Certain other manufacturing
operations were curtailed in 2004. The number of
employees terminated in the restructurings was 48 and 278
in 2004 and 2003, respectively.
During 2002 and 2003, the Company continued its efforts
to restructure operations and reduce costs. Retail
stores were closed in 2002 and 2003. In 2002, the
Company sold its Shenango refractories operation at a
$1.4 million loss. Employees terminated in these
restructurings totaled 278 in 2003 and 65 in 2002.

9.Liability for Discontinued Operations
Prior to the 1995 sale of its Syracuse China division,
the Company executed a consent order with the New York
Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), under
which the Company agreed to conduct a Remedial
Investigation and Feasibility Study (RI/FS) of an on-site
landfill and surrounding wetlands at Syracuse China's
Court Street facility in Syracuse, New York. The purpose
of the RI/FS was to investigate the environmental
condition and develop alternatives for potential
remediation of the site. Following completion of the
work required by the RI/FS consent order, the Company
negotiated with DEC regarding the exact nature and extent
of the remediation of the landfill. This negotiation
resulted in a Remedial Design/Remedial Construction
Consent Order between the Company and DEC, which was
executed in March 2000. Pursuant to this order, the
Company hired a contractor to excavate certain
contaminated sediments from the wetlands and move them to
the landfill, which was then covered with a geomembrane
cap. Substantially all remediation work was completed in
the second quarter of 2003, and a final engineering
report was submitted to DEC in the third quarter of 2003.
Through December 31, 2004, cumulative remediation costs
paid were $5.1 million, including legal fees and other
expenses.
As of December 31, 2004, the liability for discontinued
operations represents undiscounted future costs for
remediation and monitoring obligations that may extend
more than twenty years. The Company previously sold its
Syracuse China division to a subsidiary of Libbey Glass,
Inc. (Libbey). Libbey has agreed to reimburse the Company
for 50% of the remediation and monitoring costs, up to a
total contribution of $1.4 million. Reimbursement has
been made subject to potential reduction for any recovery
from Canadian Pacific (U.S.), Inc., the prior owner of
Syracuse China. The Company is in litigation with
Canadian Pacific to recover costs associated with the
landfill.
10.Subsequent Event
On July 11, 2005, Pfaltzgraff sold assets constituting
its wholesale and retail business and its intangible
assets, including rights to the Pfaltzgraff name, to
Lifetime Brands, Inc. ("Lifetime") for $32.5 million
cash. The Company repaid all its long-term debt of $10.1
million using the sales proceeds. Under terms of the
sales agreement, Pfaltzgraff may receive additional
consideration through a working capital adjustment to be
completed in mid-September 2005. Pfaltzgraff did not
sell its manufacturing facilities, raw materials and work-
in-process inventories or distribution real estate in the
transaction. Under terms of a product supply agreement
with Lifetime, Pfaltzgraff will manufacture certain
inventory for Lifetime into October 2005. On August 15,
2005, Pfaltzgraff notified its manufacturing employees of
its intention to terminate manufacturing operations. The
Pfaltzgraff Co. has changed its name to TPC-York, Inc.

THE PFALTZGRAFF CO. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.Basis of Presentation
Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, the condensed consolidated
interim financial statements included herein have been
prepared, without audit, by The Pfaltzgraff Co. (the
"Company" or "Pfaltzgraff"). The financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of
America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and
with the instructions in Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States have been condensed or omitted; however,
Pfaltzgraff believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading. The
condensed consolidated financial statements included
herein should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
included in this Form 8-K for the year ended December 31,
2004.
The condensed consolidated financial statements (the
"financial statements") include the accounts of
Pfaltzgraff and all its subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed
consolidated interim financial statements contain all
material adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly Pfaltzgraff's
consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2005, its
results of operations for the six months ended June 30,
2005 and 2004, and its cash flows for the six months
ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from those
estimates. Interim results are not necessarily
indicative of results for the full year or future
periods.
2.Recent Developments
Sale of Assets
On July 11, 2005, Pfaltzgraff sold assets constituting
its wholesale and retail business and its intangible
assets, including rights to the Pfaltzgraff name, to
Lifetime Brands, Inc. ("Lifetime") for $32.5 million
cash. The Company repaid all its long-term debt of $10.1
million using the sales proceeds. Under terms of the
sales agreement, Pfaltzgraff may receive additional
consideration through a working capital adjustment to be
completed in mid-September 2005. Pfaltzgraff did not
sell its manufacturing facilities, raw materials and work-
in-process inventories or distribution real estate in the
transaction. Under terms of a product supply agreement
with Lifetime, Pfaltzgraff will manufacture certain
inventory for Lifetime into October 2005. On August 15,
2005, Pfaltzgraff notified its manufacturing employees of
its intention to terminate manufacturing operations. The
Pfaltzgraff Co. has changed its name to TPC-York, Inc.

Inventories
Inventories were comprised of (in thousands):
June 30, December 31,
2005 2004
Finished goods $22,192 $17,645
Work-in-process 6,408 6,540
Raw materials 1,571 1,771
$30,171 $25,956
LIFO increments are costed using the link-chain method.
External indices are used to determine the effect of
price changes for manufactured and sourced item pools.
If all inventories were valued at the lower of FIFO cost
or market, inventory values at June 30, 2005, and December
31, 2004 would have been $37.8 million and, $32.0 million,
respectively. Using the FIFO method would have increased
the loss from continuing operations by $0.6 million in
both 2005 and 2004.
Retail and other inventories, valued at the lower of FIFO
cost or market, were $10.4 million and $9.0 million at
June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively
Restructuring and Closing
The Company completed the closing of its Nogales, Mexico
facility in March 2004. Certain other manufacturing
operations were curtailed in 2004 and 2005. The number
of employees terminated in the restructurings was 14 in
2005 and 48 in 2004.

Exhibit 99.2
LIFETIME BRANDS, INC. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
On July 11, 2005, Lifetime Brands, Inc. ("Lifetime" or the
"Company") completed the acquisition of the business and
certain assets and liabilities of The Pfaltzgraff Co.
("Pfaltzgraff ") pursuant to and upon the terms and
conditions of an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of June
17, 2005. Pfaltzgraff designs, markets, distributes and
sells ceramic dinnerware and tabletop accessories for the
home. Its products are distributed through company-owned
factory stores and retail chains as well as through Internet
and catalog operations. The amount paid at closing, subject
to post closing adjustments, was approximately $33.1
million.
To finance the acquisition, on July 11, 2005 Lifetime
amended its $50 million secured credit facility (the "Credit
Facility") to increase the size of the facility to $100
million and to extend its maturity to July 2010. Borrowings
under the Credit Facility are secured by all of the assets
of the Company. Under the terms of the Credit Facility,
Lifetime is required to satisfy certain financial covenants,
including limitations on indebtedness and sale of assets; a
minimum fixed charge ratio; a maximum leverage ratio and
maintenance of a minimum net worth. Borrowings under the
Credit Facility have different interest rate options that
are based on an alternate base rate, the LIBOR rate and the
lender's cost of funds rate, plus in each case a margin
based on a leverage ratio.
The acquisition of Pfaltzgraff by Lifetime was initially
reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 15,
2005, which report is hereby being amended by the filing of
this Form 8-K/A to include the financial statements required
by Item 9.01 of Form 8-K. The following unaudited pro forma
condensed combined financial information has been prepared
to give effect to the acquisition by Lifetime of the
business and certain assets and liabilities of Pfaltzgraff
using the purchase method of accounting.
The transaction was accounted by Lifetime under the purchase
method of accounting in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, Business
Combinations. Under the purchase method of accounting, the
total purchase price is allocated among the net tangible and
identifiable intangible assets acquired by Lifetime in
connection with the transaction, based on their fair values
as of the completion of the transaction. The unaudited pro
forma condensed combined financial information reflects the
preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets
acquired based on their estimated fair value on July 11,
2005. The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject
to change based on the finalization of post closing
adjustments to the purchase price and additional fair value
adjustments, which may be significant.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial
information is presented in accordance with Article 11 of
Regulation S- X. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined
balance sheet of Lifetime gives effect to the transaction as
if it occurred on June 30, 2005. The unaudited pro forma
condensed combined statements of operations for the six
months ended June 30, 2005 and the year ended December 31,
2004 give effect to the transaction as if it had occurred on
January 1, 2004.
1
The pro forma adjustments are based upon information and
assumptions available at the time of the filing of this
Form 8-K/A. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined
financial information does not reflect any synergies that
may be achieved from the combination of the entities by i)
lowering the cost of products sold by sourcing all
production overseas, ii) closing unprofitable Pfaltzgraff
factory stores, iii) consolidating the Pfaltzgraff factory
store operations with Lifetime's existing Farberware outlet
store operations and iv) eliminating redundant staffing,
operations and executive management. Lifetime cannot assure
that management will be successful in its efforts to
integrate the operations of the companies.
The pro forma information is presented for illustrative
purposes only and is not intended to be indicative of the
operating results that actually would have occurred if the
transaction had been consummated on January 1, 2004 nor is
the data intended to be indicative of future operating
results. The unaudited pro forma condensed financial
information of Lifetime and Pfaltzgraff and the accompanying
notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the
historical financial statements and notes thereto of
Lifetime and Pfaltzgraff. Lifetime's historical financial
statements are included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the
Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended June 30, 2005. Pfaltzgraff's historical financial
statements and related notes thereto are attached as
Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K/A.

LIFETIME BRANDS, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL
INFORMATION
1.Basis of Presentation
On July 11, 2005, Lifetime Brands, Inc. ("Lifetime" or
the "Company") completed the acquisition of the business
and certain assets and liabilities of The Pfaltzgraff Co.
("Pfaltzgraff ") pursuant to and upon the terms and
conditions of an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of
June 17, 2005. Pfaltzgraff designs, markets, distributes
and sells ceramic dinnerware and tabletop accessories for
the home. Its products are distributed through company-
owned factory stores and retail chains as well as through
Internet and catalog operations. The amount paid at
closing, subject to post closing adjustments, was
approximately $33.1 million.
To finance the acquisition, on July 11, 2005 Lifetime
amended its $50 million secured credit facility (the
"Credit Facility") to increase the size of the facility
to $100 million and to extend its maturity to July 2010.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by all
of the assets of the Company. Under the terms of the
Credit Facility, Lifetime is required to satisfy certain
financial covenants, including limitations on
indebtedness and sale of assets; a minimum fixed charge
ratio; a maximum leverage ratio and maintenance of a
minimum net worth. Borrowings under the Credit Facility
have different interest rate options that are based on an
alternate base rate, the LIBOR rate and the lender's cost
of funds rate, plus in each case a margin based on a
leverage ratio.
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined
financial information presents the pro forma results of
operations and financial position of Lifetime and
Pfaltzgraff on a combined basis based on the historical
financial information of each company and after giving
effect to the acquisition of the business and certain
assets and liabilities of Pfaltzgraff by Lifetime on July
11, 2005. The acquisition was recorded using the
purchase method of accounting.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the
historical financial statements of Pfaltzgraff to conform
to the presentation used in Lifetime's historical
financial statements. Such reclassifications had no
effect on Pfaltzgraff's previously reported results from
operations.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet
has been prepared assuming the acquisition occurred on
June 30, 2005. The unaudited pro forma condensed
combined statements of operations have been prepared
assuming the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2004.
