Item
1. Security
and Issuer.
This
Statement on Schedule 13D relates to shares of common stock, par value $0.10
per share (the “Shares”) of Joe’s Jeans Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Issuer”). The address of the principal executive office of the
Issuer is 5901 South Eastern Avenue, Commerce, CA 90040.
Item
2. Identity
and Background.
This
statement is filed on behalf of Joseph M. Dahan, a United States citizen (“Mr.
Dahan”). Mr. Dahan serves as the creative director of the
Issuer. The principal business address of Mr. Dahan is 5901 South
Eastern Avenue, Commerce, CA 90040.
During
the last five years, Mr. Dahan has not been convicted in a criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) nor has he been a party
to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent
jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment,
decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws of finding
any
violation with respect to such laws.
Item
3. Source
and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
On
October 25, 2007 (the “Date of Event”), Mr. Dahan acquired
14,000,000 Shares pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated
February 6, 2007, by and between the Issuer, Joe’s Jeans Subsidiary Inc. (“Joe’s
Subsidiary”), JD Holdings, Inc. (“JD Holdings”) and Mr. Dahan, as amended (the
“Merger Agreement”).
Item
4. Purpose
of Transaction.
On
the
Date of Event, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Joe’s Subsidiary merged with
and into JD Holdings, with Joe’s Subsidiary as the surviving entity and a wholly
owned subsidiary of the Issuer (the “Merger”). At the time, Mr. Dahan
was the sole shareholder of JD Holdings. In connection with the
Merger, the Issuer issued 14,000,000 Shares and made a cash payment of $300,000
to Mr. Dahan in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of JD
Holdings.
Upon
the
closing of the Merger, the Issuer also entered into an investor rights agreement
with Mr. Dahan (the “Investor Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Investor
Rights Agreement, the Issuer agreed to register for resale, on a periodic basis
at the request of Mr. Dahan, the Shares eligible for resale issued in connection
with the Merger. The Shares issued as Merger consideration become eligible
for
resale beginning on the six month anniversary of the closing date of the Merger
at an initial rate of 1/6 of the shares issued and every six months thereafter
at the same rate until all the shares are fully released on the third
anniversary of the closing date. The Issuer agreed to bear all expenses
associated with registering these shares for resale and has granted to Mr.
Dahan
certain piggyback rights with respect to future registration statements filed
by
the Issuer.
In
addition, under the Investor Rights Agreement, the Issuer’s board of directors
elected Mr. Dahan as member effective as of the Date of Event.
Mr.
Dahan
may make, or cause to be made, further acquisitions of Shares from time to
time
and may dispose of, or cause to be disposed of, subject to the terms of the
Investor Rights Agreement, any or all of the Shares held by him at any
time. Mr. Dahan intends to evaluate on an ongoing basis the investment in
the Issuer and his options with respect to such investment.
