Hampshire Group Provides Update on Dockers® Licenses and Financing Situation

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Hampshire Group, Limited (OTC Markets:HAMP) (“Hampshire” or “the
Company”) today announced that the Company has reached an agreement with
its primary licensor, Levi Strauss & Co., and its senior secured lender
with respect to its licenses to produce Dockers® brand clothing.
Hampshire will transition the Dockers® licenses back to Levi Strauss &
Co. along with related product development, production processes and
sourcing relationships, and liquidate its receivables and other assets
with the goal of paying off its outstanding indebtedness with its
lender. The lender agreed to fund the Company’s completion of identified
purchase orders. The Company expects the transition process to be
completed by early October 2016.

The Company anticipates entering into a separate agreement with its
secured lender to fund certain other aspects of the Company’s operations
during the transition period.

Hampshire continues to explore various alternatives for its James
Campbell brand, including its continued operation or a divestiture.

Management plans to provide further updates on its plan for the James
Campbell brand as new information becomes available.
