                        This Amendment No. 2 (this “Amendment”) amends the Statement on Schedule 13D filed on October 10, 2008 and amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed March 4, 2009 (as so amended, the “Original Schedule”) by and on behalf of Blue Harbour Group, LP (“Manager”), Blue Harbour Strategic Value Partners Master Fund, LP (the “Fund”), Blue Harbour Institutional Partners Master Fund, L.P. (“BHIP” and, together with the Fund, the “Funds”), Blue Harbour GP, LLC (“Fund GP”), Blue Harbour Holdings, LLC (“Manager GP”), and Clifton S. Robbins (“Mr. Robbins”; Manager, the Fund, BHIP, Fund GP, Manager GP and Mr. Robbins are herein sometimes referred to each as a “Reporting Person” and collectively as the “Reporting Persons”), with respect to the common stock, par value $1 per share (“Common Stock”), of Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

Item 5 of the Original Schedule is hereby amended and restated in its entirety, with effect from the date of this Amendment, as follows:

(a) – (b)  The responses of the Reporting Persons to Rows (7) through (13) of the cover pages of this Amendment are incorporated herein by reference. As of the close of business on the date of this Amendment, the Fund beneficially owns an aggregate of 1,862,437 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 3.61% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, and BHIP beneficially owns an aggregate of 691,522 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 1.34% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. As of the date of this Amendment, the 2,553,959 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned, in the aggregate, by the Funds (which shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be beneficially owned by each of the Fund GP, Manager, Manager GP and Mr. Robbins) represent approximately 4.95% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. All percentages in this paragraph are based on 51,588,754 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of June 2, 2009 as set forth in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the Company’s fiscal quarter ended May 3, 2009.

The Fund is the direct owner of 1,862,437 shares of Common Stock reported on this Amendment and BHIP is the direct owner of 691,522 shares of Common Stock reported on this Amendment. For purposes of disclosing the number of shares beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons, Fund GP, as general partner of the Funds, Manager, as the investment manager of the Funds, Manager GP as the general partner of Manager, and Mr. Robbins, as controlling owner of Fund GP and Manager GP (in addition to serving as Chief Executive Officer of Manager), may be deemed to own beneficially (as that term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) all shares of Common Stock that are owned beneficially and directly by the Funds. Each of Fund GP, Manager, Manager GP and Mr. Robbins disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares for all other purposes. The Fund and BHIP each disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares held directly by the other.

(c)          Except as set forth above or in the attached Schedule I, no Reporting Person has effected any transaction in shares of Common Stock during the sixty (60) days preceding the date of this Amendment.

 

(d)

Not applicable.

(e)          The Reporting Persons ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of the Common Stock on August 12, 2009.
