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

As previously announced in a press release and Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 18, 2020, between March 16 and March 19, 2020, Guess?, Inc. (the “Company”), directly and through its subsidiaries, elected to borrow approximately $212 million under certain of its existing credit facilities in the U.S., Canada and Europe as a precautionary measure to ensure financial flexibility and maintain maximum liquidity in response to the COVID-19 pandemic (the “Drawdowns”). The Drawdowns included approximately $78 million under the Company’s existing senior secured asset-based revolving Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement dated as of June 23, 2015, as amended (the ”Credit Facility”), among the Company, the borrowing subsidiaries party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as agent for the lenders.  The Drawdowns also included approximately $134 million under a number of existing short-term borrowing agreements with various banks in Europe through the Company’s European subsidiaries.  Following the Drawdowns, the Company had remaining borrowing capacity of approximately $33 million under the Credit Facility and of approximately $24 million under its various existing borrowing agreements in Europe and Asia.  As of March 19, 2020, the current weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the Credit Facility was approximately 3.65% and the current interest rates for borrowings under the European borrowing agreements ranged between 0.65% and 1.1%.  The Company is in the process of negotiating an extension for the Credit Facility, which is currently scheduled to mature on June 22, 2020. The European and Asian facilities are generally scheduled to mature between July 2020 and January 2021.
