Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 31, 2005, Enesco Group, Inc. entered into a ninth amendment to its existing U.S. credit facility, which is effective as of August 31, 2005. The amendment increases Enesco’s flexibility by resetting the minimum EBITDA covenant through the facility termination date, December 31, 2005, based on the Company’s reforecast and long-term partnership with Bank of America, as successor to Fleet National Bank, and LaSalle Bank.

The following entities were added as credit parties and guarantors under the credit facility: Enesco International (H.K.) Limited; and Enesco Holdings Limited, Enesco Limited, and Bilston & Battersea Enamels Limited. The definition of Borrowing Capacity was amended to add the accounts receivable of the Hong Kong subsidiary, and the accounts receivable and inventory of the U.K. subsidiaries. The advance rate on inventory decreased from 50% to 33% and is subject to an overall limitation, which decreased from $16.0 million to $12.5 million, and no more than $29.0 million of inventory and accounts receivable of Enesco’s U.K. subsidiaries can be included. The amendment lowered the amount of allowable cumulative capital expenditures through December 31, 2005. The Commitment and Maximum Borrowing Amounts also were increased to a total of $75.0 million, rather than a variable facility size of $50.0 million to $70.0 million.


The amendment to the credit facility is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and the press release announcing the amendment is attached as Exhibit 99.2. Each is incorporated herein by reference.
