Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard;
Transfer of Listing.

On February 20, 2008, Sun Capital Securities Group, LLC announced the successful completion of the acquisition of Kellwood Company (NYSE: KWD) (“Kellwood”) for approximately $767 million, including the assumption of Kellwood's net debt. The transaction was consummated through a cash tender offer by Cardinal Integrated, LLC (“Cardinal Integrated”), an indirect jointly owned subsidiary of certain affiliates of Sun Capital Partners, Inc., followed by a short-form merger of a subsidiary of Cardinal Integrated with and into Kellwood. As a result of this acquisition, Kellwood becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cardinal Integrated.

At the time of the merger, all outstanding shares of Kellwood common stock (together with the associated preferred stock purchase rights, the “Shares”) not validly tendered and accepted for payment in the tender offer were converted, subject to appraisal rights, into the right to receive $21.00 per share in cash (the same price paid in the tender offer). The paying agent for the merger will mail to the remaining former shareholders of Kellwood materials necessary to exchange their former Kellwood shares for such payment.

Following the Merger, the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) on Form 25 in order to effect the delisting of the common stock from the NYSE and the deregistration of the common stock under the Exchange Act. On February 20, 2008, the Company filed with the SEC a Form 15 to suspend its duty to file reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

The foregoing description of the merger is qualified in its entirety by reference to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 10, 2008, by and among Kellwood, Cardinal Integrated and Cardinal Group Integrated, Inc., a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Form 8-K filed with the SEC by the Company on February 12, 2008.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
