On ~~Approval~~ August 29, of2007, Finlay Enterprises, Inc. (“Finlay Enterprises”), the parent of Finlay Fine Jewelry Corporation (the “Registrant”), issued a press release announcing Finlay Enterprises’ financial results for the second quarter and the six months ended August 4, 2007. ~~Long~~A ~~Term~~copy ~~Incentive~~of ~~Plan~~the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Item ~~On February 27, 2007, the Board of Directors of Finlay Enterprises, Inc~~ 9. ~~(the “Company”), the parent~~01 Financial of Statements Finlay Fine Jewelry Corporation, approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to the Finlay Enterprises, Inc. 1997 Long Term Incentive Plan (“1997 Plan”), which extended the term of the 1997 Plan. On February 27, 2007, the Board of Directors also approved, subject to stockholder approval, the merger of the 1997 Plan (as extended) and ~~the Finlay Enterprises, Inc~~Exhibits. Long Term Incentive Plan (adopted in 1993) (“1993 Plan”), to form the Finlay Enterprises, Inc. 2007 Long Term Incentive Plan (“2007 Plan”). The Company’s stockholders approved the extension of the term of the 1997 Plan and the merger of the 1997 Plan (as extended) and the 1993 Plan into the 2007 Plan at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 19, 2007.

The 2007 Plan, which became effective June 19, 2007, is designed to provide an incentive and reward for those executive officers, directors, key employees, consultants and other persons who are in a position to contribute substantially to the progress and success of the Company, to closely align the interests of such employees and other persons with the interests of the stockholders of the Company by linking benefits to stock performance and to retain the services of such persons, as well as to attract new key employees. The 2007 Plan authorizes the granting of nonqualified stock options, restricted and nonrestricted stock, restricted stock units and performance awards, and includes the authority to grant awards that qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(md) ~~of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”)~~ Exhibits. ~~The 2007 Plan has no termination date.~~

The 2007 Plan provides that, subject to capital adjustments and subject to the next sentence, a maximum of 446,351 shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued as awards under the plan. In addition, if any previously granted award under the 1997 Plan or 1993 Plan or any award under the 2007 Plan terminates, expires, lapses or is forfeited for any reason, the common shares subject to such award will also be available for future awards under the 2007 Plan. If common shares are surrendered by a participant as full or partial payment of withholding taxes, or if the number of common shares otherwise deliverable is reduced for payment of withholding taxes, the number of common shares available for future awards under the 2007 Plan will be reduced by the full number of common shares awarded.

	Exhibit No.	Description
	99.1	Finlay Enterprises, Inc. press release dated August 29, 2007.

The Board has delegated general administrative authority for the 2007 Plan to the Board’s Compensation Committee (the “Committee”). The Committee has broad authority under the 2007 Plan to, among other things, select participants to receive awards and determine the terms and conditions of any such awards.

The foregoing description of the 2007 Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2007 Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.23 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

No further awards will be granted under the Company’s 1993 Plan or the 1997 Plan; however, all awards under the 1993 Plan or 1997 Plan that were outstanding on June 19, 2007 will remain outstanding in accordance with their terms.

Approval of Finlay Enterprises, Inc. Cash Bonus Plan

On June 19, 2007, the Company’s stockholders also approved a new cash bonus plan, the Finlay Enterprises, Inc. Cash Bonus Plan (“Cash Bonus Plan”) to replace the 2004 Finlay Enterprises, Inc. Cash Bonus Plan (“2004 Cash Bonus Plan”), which was approved by stockholders on September 8, 2004. The new Cash Bonus Plan is intended to provide annual incentives to certain executive officers in a manner designed to reinforce the Company’s performance goals, to link a significant portion of participants’ compensation to the achievement of such goals, and to continue to attract, motivate and retain key executives on a competitive basis, while seeking to preserve for the benefit of the Company, to the extent practicable, the associated federal income tax deduction for payments of qualified “performance-based” compensation under IRC Section 162(m). The new Cash Bonus Plan provides for the same maximum bonus to an eligible executive officer in a single year and the same performance criteria as the 2004 Cash Bonus Plan, and awards under the new Cash Bonus Plan will be granted in the same manner as under the 2004 Cash Bonus Plan. For IRC Section 162(m) purposes, the 2004 Cash Bonus Plan did not need to be re-approved by stockholders until the Company’s 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. However, in view of the fact that the Company was already seeking stockholder approval of the 2007 Plan at the 2007 Annual Meeting, the Company determined for administrative convenience to resubmit the Cash Bonus Plan to stockholders at the same time so that both the new Cash Bonus Plan and the 2007 Plan would have the same five-year schedule for stockholder approval of their performance criteria under IRC Section 162(m).

The foregoing description of the Cash Bonus Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Cash Bonus Plan, which is included as Exhibit 10.24 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
