Flexible

Varied use of proceeds, suitable for your objectives.

Our investment would typically be: 
Minority Ownership  position of 20% to 49.9%

Flexible – varied use of proceeds, suitable for your objectives.  Common equity-like with no fixed coupon or dividend rate. Our interests are completely aligned with yours.  We participate in the profits as they are realized.
Passive – you remain as the principal shareholder and operator, and you control day to day decisions.
Permanent – we will not have any forced liquidity rights to require a sale of the business or monetization of our investments.
