Guarantees and other provisions<br />

<strong>Incofin</strong> will use its best efforts to obtain guarantees when making investments. However, as it is hardly<br />

possible to provi<strong>de</strong> loans against collateral or to obtain guarantees when making equity investments in the<br />

chosen investment segments, in practice, investment risks will be minimised primarily through a pru<strong>de</strong>nt<br />

selection of suitable counterparts, based on the un<strong>de</strong>rstanding of their business mo<strong>de</strong>l.<br />

<strong>Incofin</strong> however reserves the right to require additional collateral for certain investments.<br />

As the target market inherently bears consi<strong>de</strong>rable political risks, <strong>Incofin</strong> may choose to obtain insurance<br />

for certain investments against political and/or transfer risk. In such case the cost of insuring will – to the<br />

largest possible extent - be charged to the investee.<br />

Equity-specific characteristics<br />

Equity investments will either be structured in preferred stock generating a steady return, or taken in very<br />

performing MFIs or SME-Funds providing strong perspectives to generate an upsi<strong>de</strong>.<br />

It is <strong>Incofin</strong>’s explicit intention to provi<strong>de</strong> to the investee stable sharehol<strong>de</strong>rship and governance over<br />

a 5 to ten year frame. <strong>Incofin</strong> therefore intends to be a significant minority sharehol<strong>de</strong>r in each equity<br />

investment, holding not less than 5% of the investee entity’s equity. <strong>Incofin</strong> en<strong>de</strong>avours to have appropriate<br />

minority sharehol<strong>de</strong>r rights, typically including the right to approve significant corporate actions.<br />

<strong>Incofin</strong> strives to play an active role in the governance of investee companies, and will use its best efforts<br />

to obtain board representation, especially if its investment represents a significant part of the capital of<br />

the portfolio company. Furthermore, cooperation will be sought with other sharehol<strong>de</strong>rs, by means of<br />

sharehol<strong>de</strong>r agreements or other.<br />

<strong>Incofin</strong> will make sure that all equity-investment agreements contain all terms and conditions necessary to<br />

a<strong>de</strong>quately protect its interests. These terms will be construed in accordance with applicable law and may<br />

inclu<strong>de</strong> a.o.<br />

· put & call options;<br />

· rights of first refusal;<br />

· tag-along rights;<br />

· veto rights;<br />
