I. PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
1. On Sunday, February 28, 1999, defendants announced that the Board of Directors had

North Face, Inc. ("North Face" or the "Company") receiving $17.00 per share of North
Face stock.
2. On March 5, 1999, defendants did an about turn and announced that the tender offer

Securities laws by The North Face, Inc. ("North Face," or the
"Company") and certain of its top officers and directors on behalf
of the purchasers of North Face common stock between April 25, 1997
and March 4, 1999 (the "Class Period"). During the Class Period,
the defendants falsely reported North Face's financial results and
overstated its sales growth causing the Company's stock price to
trade at as high as $29. Ultimately on March 5, 1999, North Face
announced its audited 1998 results were "delayed" and that,
