This Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D, dated December 12, 2007 and filed by Dov Charney (the “reporting person”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 26, 2007 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto, dated March 13, 2009 and filed by the reporting person with the SEC on March 23, 2009 (“Amendment No. 1”), and Amendment No. 2 thereto, dated April 14, 2009 and filed by the reporting person with the SEC on April 16, 2009 (collectively with the Original Schedule 13D and Amendment No. 1, the “Schedule 13D”), with respect to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of American Apparel, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
The response to Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraph at the end of such Item 3:
From November 12, 2010 to December 1, 2010, the reporting person purchased a total of 2,896,624 shares of Common Stock (as more fully described in Item 5(c) below) with personal funds for approximately $3.87 million, excluding fees and commissions.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) and (b) The response to Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by replacing subsections (a) and (b) in their entirety with the following:
The reporting person directly beneficially owns 41,009,689 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 51.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock based on the Issuer having 79,109,694 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 1, 2010. The reporting person has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of, and the sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of, all of the shares beneficially owned by the reporting person.
As a result of the Investment Voting Agreement (as defined in Item 6), the reporting person and Lion Capital (Guernsey) II Limited, a Guernsey limited company (“Lion”), may be deemed to constitute a “group” under Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that collectively beneficially owns approximately 57,009,689 shares of Common Stock, or 72.1% of the Issuer’s total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 1, 2010 (after giving effect to the issuance of the full 16,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Lion Warrant (as defined in Item 6)), for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that the reporting person is a member of a group with Lion for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose, and such membership is expressly disclaimed. In addition, neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that the reporting person is the beneficial owner of any Common Stock beneficially owned by Lion for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.
(c) The response to Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following paragraph at the end of subsection (c) of such Item 5:
