Section 1 — Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 10, 2010, Kid Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) and D. E. Shaw Laminar Portfolios, L.L.C. (the “Selling Stockholder”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC, as sole underwriter (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Selling Stockholder agreed to sell to the Underwriter, and the Underwriter agreed to purchase, 4,399,733 shares of the Company’s common stock, stated value $0.10 per share (the “Shares”) ,which the Underwriter offered to the public at a price of $7.25 per share. The Company will not receive any proceeds from this offering.

The Underwriting Agreement contains representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and the Selling Stockholder and conditions to closing, indemnification rights, obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

The shares are being offered and sold under a prospectus supplement and accompanying base prospectus that has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with an offering pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-164461). The shares are expected to be delivered to the Underwriter on or about June 15, 2010, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement were made solely for purposes of the offering and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Underwriting Agreement, were made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Underwriting Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, are subject to matters disclosed pursuant to the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to security holders. Security holders are not third-party beneficiaries under the Underwriting Agreement and should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Underwriting Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.
