AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO SCHEDULE 13D
     The Statement on Schedule 13D relating to the common stock, $0.10 stated value per share (“Common Shares”), of Russ Berrie and Company, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (the “Company”), filed on January 6, 2003 (the “Original 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Statement on Schedule 13D filed on May 5, 2004 (“Amendment No. 1”), is hereby amended and restated as described below.
     As reported in the Original 13D, at the time of the death of Mr. Russell Berrie (which occurred on December 25, 2002), Ms. Angelica Berrie and Messrs. Weston, Benaroya, Kaufthal and Norman Seiden (the “Added Trustees”) became Stock Trustees of The Russell Berrie 2002A Trust (the “Trust”), as defined in the Trust Indenture governing such Trust, in addition to Myron Rosner, who was and remains a Stock Trustee of such Trust. At such time, as Mr. Rosner already had a Statement on Schedule 13D (the “Rosner 13D”) on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to Common Shares of the Company, he did not join in the Original 13D, but continued to file his required reports separately1. At this time, however, in order to avoid duplicative reporting, and for purposes of clarity and convenience, Mr. Rosner has determined to discontinue such separate reporting. Therefore, in addition to describing changes in information included in the Original 13D, as amended, this Amendment No. 2 adds Mr. Rosner as a reporting person hereunder, and as such, also updates information included in the Rosner 13D, as amended. In addition, in light of the filing of a separate Statement on Schedule 13D by Ms. Berrie on March 15, 2006, this Amendment No. 2 also removes Ms. Berrie as a reporting person hereunder. As a result of the foregoing, the Original 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 1, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
ITEM 1.   SECURITY AND ISSUER

  (f)   Each of Messrs. Weston, Benaroya, Kaufthal, Seiden and Rosner is a citizen of the United States of America.
ITEM 3.   SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
      Pursuant to the terms of the Trust Indenture of the Trust, dated June 10, 2002 (the “Trust Indenture”), upon the death of Mr. Russell Berrie, the Added Trustees became Stock Trustees of the Trust (as defined in the Trust Indenture); Mr. Rosner, who was a Stock Trustee at such time, remains a Stock Trustee of the Trust. Immediately prior to the date of the transaction described below, the Trust held 2,771,988 Common Shares. In addition, Messrs. Kaufthal and Rosner (along with Ms. Berrie) became executors of the Estate of Mr. Russell Berrie (the “Estate”) effective January 6, 2003. Immediately prior to the date of the transaction described below, the Estate held 1,852,463 Common Shares. With respect to any other Common Shares that are beneficially owned by the reporting persons, the Common Shares owned by them were acquired for cash, and any options held by them were granted pursuant to the Company’s various stock option plans.
 
      On March 28, 2006, the executors of the Estate distributed all 1,852,463 Common Shares held by the Estate to the Trust, in accordance with the Last Will and Testament of Mr. Russell Berrie admitted to Probate by the Surrogate of Bergen County, New Jersey, January 6, 2003. Immediately thereafter, on March 28, 2006, in accordance with the terms of the Trust Indenture, the Trust made a disposition of all Common Shares held by it (including the Common Shares received pursuant to the preceding sentence), totaling 4,624,451 Common Shares (the “Transferred Shares”), to The Russell Berrie Foundation, a New Jersey Nonprofit Corporation (the “Foundation”). Also as of March 28, 2006, consistent with the intent of the Trust Indenture, all the Stock Trustees of the Trust (the “Trustees”), as such, and the Foundation entered into a Receipt, Release, Refunding and Share Voting and Disposition Agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, the Trustees, as such, collectively retained the sole power to vote and to dispose of all Transferred Shares, as well as any securities of the Company received by the Foundation in respect of the Transferred Shares, until December 25, 2007 or until such Voting Agreement is earlier terminated as provided therein (the “Retained Rights”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Retained Rights automatically terminate as to the relevant shares upon their disposition by the Foundation as directed by the Trustees, which occurred on August 10, 2006. The Voting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2. As a result of the Retained Rights, although the economic benefits of ownership of the Transferred Shares were transferred to the Foundation, the Trustees, as such, collectively continued to retain sole beneficial ownership of such shares for purposes of Section 13(d)


 

Page 9 of 15 Pages

      of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) until the termination of the Retained Rights, and the Foundation’s beneficial ownership of Common Shares for such purposes did not increase as a result of the transaction.
ITEM 4.   PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION
      The securities were acquired as described in Item 3 above. On August 4, 2006, the Trustees authorized the sale by the Foundation, on the terms hereinafter described, of all the Transferred Shares (as referred to in Item 3) in conjunction with the sale by the Foundation of all other Common Shares owned by it, which was simultaneously authorized by the Board of Trustees of the Foundation after considering offers that had recently been received by the Foundation for the purchase of all of its shares. On the same date, the Foundation entered into a Share Purchase Agreement, dated August 4, 2006, by and among the Foundation and certain investment entities associated with Prentice Capital Management L. P. listed on a schedule attached thereto (the “Initial Sale Agreement”) for the sale of 8,799,466 Common Shares, including the Transferred Shares and constituting all of the Common Shares owned by the Foundation (collectively, the “Foundation Shares”), at a price of $11.30 per share payable in cash. The Initial Sale Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 3. The sale of the Foundation Shares pursuant to the Initial Sale Agreement was subject to the Board of Directors of the Company taking certain action relating to its reconstitution and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. At the request of the purchasers under the Initial Sale Agreement, the Foundation, with the approval of the Trustees, and the other parties to the Initial Sale Agreement amended and restated such agreement as of August 9, 2006, so as to reduce the number of Common Shares to be sold pursuant thereto by one-half and to make certain other immaterial changes (as so amended, the “Revised Sale Agreement”) and the Foundation, with the approval of the Trustees, simultaneously entered into a substantively identical Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to which D.E. Shaw Laminar Portfolios, LLC agreed to purchase one-half of the Foundation Shares on the same terms and conditions as contained in the Revised Sale Agreement (the “Companion Sale Agreement”). The Revised Sale Agreement and the Companion Sale Agreement are attached hereto as Exhibits 4 and 5. On August 10, 2006, the Foundation sold all of the Foundation Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Revised Sale Agreement and the Companion Sale Agreement. Simultaneously with the consummation of such sale of the Foundation Shares, Ms. Berrie and Mr. Kaufthal resigned as members of the Company’s Board of Directors.
 
      The reporting persons may, as Trustees, depending on their respective assessments of the prospects of the Company and other factors, elect to acquire Common Shares. In addition, the reporting persons may, in their individual capacities, elect to acquire Common Shares or dispose of Common Shares.
 
      Except as described above, none of the reporting persons have, either with respect to the Common Shares over which they have voting and dispositive power as Trustees, or with respect to any other Common Shares held by any of them, any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company; (b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the present board of directors or management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change the number or terms of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the Board, (e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Company, (f) any other material change in the Company’s business or corporate structure, (g) changes in the Company’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Company by any person, (h) causing a class of securities of the Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) causing a class of equity securities to become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or (j) any action similar to those enumerated above.
