Item 1.01.        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

BANK OF AMERICA LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENT AND AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE.

Effective June 15, 2007, Movado Group, Inc. (the “Company”) executed a line of credit letter agreement with Bank of America (“B of A”) and an amended and restated promissory note in the principal amount of up to $20,000,000 payable to B of A.

Pursuant to the line of credit letter agreement, B of A will consider requests for short-term loans and documentary letters of credit for the importation of merchandise inventory, the aggregate amount of which at any time outstanding shall not exceed $20,000,000. The Company’s obligations under the agreement are guaranteed by its subsidiaries, Movado Retail Group, Inc. and Movado LLC.

Pursuant to the amended and restated promissory note, the Company promised to pay to B of A $20,000,000, or such lesser amount as may then be the unpaid balance of all loans made by B of A to the Company thereunder, in immediately available funds upon the maturity date of June 16, 2008. The Company has the right to prepay all or part of any outstanding amounts under the promissory note without penalty at any time prior to the maturity date. The amended and restated promissory note bears interest at an annual rate equal to either (i) a floating rate equal to the prime rate or (ii) such fixed rate as may be agreed upon by the Company and B of A for an interest period which is also then agreed upon. The amended and restated promissory note contains various representations and warranties and events of default that are customary for instruments of that type.

The line of credit letter agreement supersedes the line of credit letter agreement from B of A to the Company dated June 16, 2006, as amended, and the amended and restated promissory note supersedes the amended and restated promissory note dated June 16, 2006.

Item 2.03.          Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

See the discussion under Item 1.01 above, which discussion is incorporated by reference herein.
