G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. Increases and Extends Revolving Credit Line

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. (Nasdaq: GIII) today announced it has increased its secured revolving credit line to a maximum borrowing level of $250 million compared to a maximum of $195 million under the prior loan agreement. Amounts available under the credit line are subject to borrowing base formulas and over advances as specified in the loan agreement. The lending group for the three-year revolving credit line, which now extends to July 2011, was led by CIT Commercial Services, a unit of CIT Group Inc. (NYSE:CIT).

CIT continues to demonstrate a thorough understanding of our business and our strategic objectives. We look forward to a very successful ongoing relationship with CIT and the rest of our bank group and thank them for their support.
