Transaktionsbeschreibung:
Shore Capital Group Limited, the AIM-listed investment banking group, is pleased to announce that it has
led an investor group which has agreed to acquire, subject to completion, a controlling interest (58 per
cent) in DBD Deutsche Broadband Dienste GmbH, a German telecoms business. DBD began business in
2005 using microwave radio spectrum licensed to it by the German telecoms regulator to provide
broadband services as an alternative to the broadband and telephone offerings of fixed wire-based telecom
operators. To do this, it deployed Wi-Max technology. The investors have formed a new company,
Spectrum Investments Limited, to acquire control of DBD. By exploiting Israeli-developed radio
technology from Spectrum, DBD plans to broaden its offering by adding telecom services to business
customers, including mobile operators to assist them in providing 4G data services to their own customers
more efficiently and reliably. Spectrum will be working with DBD's management team to implement this
plan. Shore Capital has invested €2.885m to acquire a majority interest in Spectrum which in turn will
hold the controlling interest in DBD. Shore Capital is backing a management team of Israeli entrepreneurs
who are co-founding the company. Other investors include additional specialists in telecommunications,
together with a number of directors and employees of Shore Capital who have co-invested.
