Explanatory Note  

Introduction

 

This statement constitutes Amendment No. 4 ("Amendment No. 4") to the Statement on Schedule 13D filed on January 12, 2005 (the “Original Schedule 13D”) and subsequently amended by amendments thereto filed on May 26, 2009, July 21, 2010 and February 16, 2012 (collectively with the Original Schedule 13D, the “Amended Schedule 13D”), by the Reporting Persons (as defined in Item 2 of the Amended Schedule 13D), relating to their beneficial ownership of the common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Steven Madden, Ltd., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

 

In accordance with Rule 13d-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements only information that has materially changed since the filing of the Amended Schedule 13D, including disclosure of the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock beneficially owned or deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons. Unless otherwise stated, the information set forth in the Amended Schedule 13D remains accurate in all material respects.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

 

Item 4 of the Amended Schedule 13D is amended and supplemented by adding the following after the last paragraph thereof:

 

Pursuant to an election right granted to him under the Amended Madden Agreement, on June 30, 2012, Mr. Madden notified the Company of his election to receive a restricted stock award for a number of shares of Common Stock valued at $40,000,000 in consideration of a reduction in his annual base salary in years subsequent to 2012. As a result thereof, on July 3, 2012, Mr. Madden was issued 1,262,228 restricted shares of Common Stock under and subject to the terms of the Company’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which shares will vest in equal annual installments over a six year period commencing on December 31, 2018 and ending on December 31, 2023. The vesting of the restricted shares of Common Stock on each vesting date is contingent on Mr. Madden’s continued employment with the Company on each such vesting date and is subject to acceleration under certain circumstances described in the Amended Madden Agreement. The Amended Madden Agreement was filed as Exhibit 3 to a Schedule 13D amendment filed by the Reporting Persons on February 16, 2012.

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

 

(a), (b) and (d) The responses of each Reporting Person to Rows (7) through (13) of the cover page of this Amendment No. 4 are incorporated herein by reference. As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons have the following interest in the Company’s Common Stock:

 

(i) Steven Madden beneficially owns 5,199,956 shares of Common Stock, which includes (A) 607,582 shares of Common Stock owned directly by Mr. Madden, (B) 467,500 shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by Mr. Madden through the exercise of options granted under and subject to the terms of the Plan, which are or will be exercisable by him within the next 60 days, (C) 2,319,499 shares of restricted Common Stock held by Mr. Madden (includes 81,900 shares that will vest on January 11, 2013, 975,371 shares that will vest in equal annual installments over seven years commencing on December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2023 and 1,262,228 shares that will vest in equal annual installments over six years commencing on December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2023, in each case subject to forfeiture pursuant to the terms of the Plan and of Mr. Madden’s employment agreement, as amended; see Item 4 above in such regard), and (D) 1,805,375 shares of Common Stock which are owned by BOCAP Corp., a corporation wholly-owned by Mr. Madden. Such beneficial ownership represents 11.3% of the Company’s Common Stock (which is calculated based on a total of 44,325,487 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of May 7, 2012, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2012 as adjusted to include 467,500 shares that are subject to options and are or will be exercisable within the next 60 days, plus the 1,262,228 restricted shares of Common Stock issued to Mr. Madden on July 3, 2012, for a total of 46,055,215). Mr. Madden’s beneficial ownership does not include 731,196 shares of Common Stock, which are beneficially owned by the Steven H. Madden July 2010 Grantor Retained Annuity Trust, an irrevocable trust established by Mr. Madden on July 12, 2010 for estate planning purposes, the trustee of which is unrelated to Mr. Madden and as to which Mr. Madden does not, directly or indirectly, have or share voting or investment power; Mr. Madden disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
