Item 1.03 Bankruptcy or Receivership.

On January 12, 2007, Enesco Group, Inc. (the "Company") and certain of its domestic subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code ("Bankruptcy Code") in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, located in Chicago, Illinois ("Bankruptcy Court"). The Company remains in possession of its assets and properties and continues to operate its business and manage its properties as a "debtor-in-possession" under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On January 12, 2007 the Company announced that an affiliate of Tinicum Capital Partners II, L.P. ("Tinicum"), a private investment partnership, has agreed in principle to a financial restructuring for the Company. As part of the restructuring, the Company expects to enter into an asset purchase agreement with Tinicum, which would provide for an affiliate of Tinicum to purchase substantially all of the assets of the Company and to assume certain unsecured liabilities of the Company. After the transaction, the Company expects that substantially all of its assets would be owned by the Tinicum affiliate, a private company. The Company does not anticipate that there will be any distribution to its stockholders for their shares as a result of this transaction. A copy of the Company’s press release announcing the Company’s proposed transaction with Tinicum is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.

The proposed transaction with Tinicum described above is not final, and remains subject to the completion and execution of definitive agreements and receipt of all requisite Bankruptcy Court approvals. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in entering into a definitive agreement with Tinicum for the transaction or, if entered into, consummating the transaction.
