American Apparel lender intensifies demand for repayment

07/07/2014 - 20:45

(Reuters) - Lion Capital has ordered American Apparel to immediately repay a $10 million loan, after the retailer failed to do so by a July 4 deadline, a source close to the matter said on Monday.

The ousting of American Apparel Chief Executive Officer Dov Charney more than two weeks ago prompted Lion Capital to demand repayment of a loan that was originally due in 2018. Charney allegedly misused company funds and helped spread nude photos of a former employee.

A spokesperson for American Apparel declined to comment.
