BPW Bpw Acqu Corp

BPW Acquisition Corp. (“BPW”) (AMEX: BPW) today announced that it has filed a preliminary proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with its solicitation of consents to amend the existing warrant agreement relating to warrants to purchase shares of BPW common stock.

If the amendment to the warrant agreement becomes effective, which is conditioned on the completion of the previously announced merger transaction between BPW and The Talbots, Inc., holders of BPW warrants that remain outstanding after the completion of the merger (if any) will not be able to exercise their unexchanged BPW warrants for up to one year from the date of the completion of the merger, subject to certain exceptions. In addition, the amendment will clarify that following the merger the unexchanged BPW warrants will no longer be entitled to the benefit of certain anti-dilution protections and other provisions in the existing warrant agreement which will be removed or modified.

The amendment will require the consent of (i) holders of record of BPW warrants as of 5:00 p.m. EDT on March 17, 2010 exercisable for a majority of the shares of BPW common stock issuable on exercise of all outstanding BPW warrants and (ii) holders of record of BPW warrants as of the record date exercisable for a majority of the shares of BPW common stock issuable on exercise of all outstanding BPW warrants issued in BPW’s initial public offering.
