Item  2.01
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On May 13, 2008, Lakeland completed the acquisition of Qualytextil and the other transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement.  In connection with the closing of such acquisition, a total of R$6.3 million (USD$3.9 million) was used to repay outstanding debts of Qualytextil, R$7.8 million (USD$4.8 million) was retained in the various escrow funds as described, and the balance of R$7.7 million (USD$4.7 million) was paid to the Sellers at closing.  In accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement, the funds from the Purchase Price, after the repayment of the outstanding debts of Qualytextil have been funded, will then have several “retained amounts” held in escrow for varying periods.  For purposes of the Stock Purchase Agreement, “retained amounts” mean the aggregate of: (i) up to R$649,000 (USD $395,000) to satisfy indemnification obligations under the Stock Purchase Agreement regarding certain contingencies of Qualytextil, which funds will remain in escrow for five (5) years or upon expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to such contingencies (whichever occurs first) and will only be released by mutual agreement between the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Parties”); (ii) the amounts of R$355,369 (USD $216,030) corresponding to 10% of the receivables and R$268,874 (USD $163,449), corresponding to 10% of the stocks of Qualytextil both on December 31, 2007, to satisfy indemnification regarding contingencies of Qualytextil, which funds will remain in escrow for a period of (a) six (6) months with respect to the receivables, and (b) one (1) year with respect to the stocks, and will only be released by mutual agreement between the Parties; (iii) 10% of the Purchase Price to satisfy indemnifications for unknown contingencies, representations and warranties, including but not limited to any tax issues, which funds will remain in escrow for the period of two (2) years from the Closing Date, and will only be released by mutual agreement between the Parties; and (iv) 20% of the Purchase Price, which funds shall remain in escrow until the 2008 EBITDA is determined, in order to satisfy the payment of potential 2008 Adjusted Purchase Price. The above USD equivalents were calculated based on the actual exchange rate on the date of the funds transfer of BRL1.645/$1 USD.
A copy of the Company’s press release announcing completion of the acquisition was attached as Exhibit 99 to the Company’s initial 8-K filed on May 15, 2008 and is incorporated by reference herein.
