• Acted for the private equity fund Pemberton on acquisition finance of EUR 120m in connection with the international investment fund ActivumSG Capital Management’s acquisition of the construction firm Nordstern ApS (formerly Casa Group A/S). The loan agreement had to take into account that the Casa Group consisted of four companies to be merged in connection with the acquisition. Nicolai subsequently advised Pemberton on ActivumSG Capital Management’s acquisition of KPC and the extension of the original loan facility.
• Assisted the German bank Landesbank Hessen-Thüringen (Helaba) in connection with the issue of a loan in the amount of DKK 900m to a private equity fund, which acquired DSV’s new headquarters in Hedehusene, Eastern Denmark. It was a ”sale and lease-back” arrangement, where the private equity fund subsequently leased the premises to DSV. Nicolai subsequently assisted Helaba in making several adjustments to the loan agreement.
• Acted for the Dutch company TIP Trailer Services on securitisation in connection with the TIP Group’s general European financing, where security was provided in a part of the affiliated companies’ assets. It was a highly complex matter transcending a number of borders and involving several lenders. The matter was solved in cooperation with DLA Piper’s offices in nine countries.
