Lloyd Fonds AG (LFAG) has today signed an investment agreement with Deutsche
Effecten- und Wechsel-Beteiligungsgesellschaft AG (DEWB), Jena. The reason
for this investment agreement is that DEWB entered into an over-the-counter
share purchase agreement with ACP Fund V LLC (AMA), currently LFAG's
principal shareholder, also on today's date. Under this share purchase
agreement, which is subject to the usual conditions precedent, DEWB is to
acquire around 25.6 percent of the shares in LFAG from AMA. The remaining
shares in LFAG held by AMA have been sold in a separate over-the-counter
share purchase agreement to investment funds managed by portfolio manager
SPSW Capital GmbH, Hamburg. The parties have agreed not to disclose the
purchase prices.
The investment agreement, which Management Board member Klaus M. Pinter
signed on behalf of LFAG, primarily governs the obligations relating to the
future strategic cooperation between DEWB and LFAG and the latter's future
corporate governance.
Among other things, DEWB is willing to share its expertise in asset
management with LFAG and allow it to benefit from its extended access to the
capital market. In addition, DEWB is to be appropriately represented on
LFAG's Supervisory Board.
As LFAG's anchor shareholder, DWEB will work with the company to broaden its
business to include liquid investment structures, particularly equity funds.
In the light of the changed shareholder structure, all members of the
supervisory boards with the exception of the Chairman of the supervisory
board, Dr. Stefan Rindfleisch, expected that they will be stepping down from
LFAG's Supervisory Board. In view of this, LFAG and DEWB have determined in
the investment agreement that LFAG is to submit an application to the
responsible court to have Achim Plate and Henning Soltau, the shareholders
of SPSW Capital GmbH and members of DEWB's Supervisory Board, appointed to
LFAG's Supervisory Board.
