On August 20, 2012, dELiA*s, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we”, “us” or the “Company”), announced its results for the second quarter ended July 28, 2012. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated into this Item 2.02 by reference.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including the Exhibit 99.1 hereto, is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities thereof, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Exchange Act or under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except to the extent specifically provided in any such filing.

As contemplated by the Rights Agreement, dated as of December 19, 2005 (the “Rights Agreement”), between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as rights agent, on August 17, 2012 the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Designation, Preferences and Rights of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”).

In December 2005 in connection with the spinoff of the Company by its former parent, Alloy, Inc. (the “Spinoff”), the Company distributed one preferred stock purchase right (each, a “right”; collectively, the “rights”) for each share of the Company’s common stock, $.001 par value per share (the “common stock”), outstanding on December 19, 2005. New rights also accompanied all new shares of common stock we issued after the Spinoff and will accompany all new shares of common stock we will issue in the future until the earlier of the date on which the rights become exercisable as described in the Rights Agreement and the date (if any) on which the rights are redeemed, but in any event not after December 19, 2015. Each of the rights allows its holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock for $60.00 per share once the rights become exercisable. The rights are not currently exercisable.

A summary of the rights is set forth in Exhibit C to the Rights Agreement, which we filed as Exhibit 10.23 to our Registration Statement on Form S-1 on May 6, 2006 (Registration No. 333-134184), and is incorporated by reference herein. As contemplated by the Rights Agreement, the Certificate of Designation contains the terms set forth in Exhibit D to the Rights Agreement.

A copy of the Certificate of Designation is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
