Revision to Investment Management Agreement
Jade Road Investments Limited (AIM: JADE), the London quoted
company focused on seeking the best risk-adjusted returns globally
provides the following update regarding amendments to the services
agreement between the Company and Harmony Capital Investors Limited
( " HCIL "), its Investment Manager, dated 5 May 2017 (the
"Services Agreement"). Pursuant to an agreement amending the
Services Agreement to be entered into between the Company and
HCIL:
1) HCIL will, subject to the overall supervision and control of
the Board, advise the Board and the Company on the orderly disposal
of those assets and investments currently owned by it (the "Legacy
Portfolio") and advise on any proposed new investments to be made
in accordance with the new Investment Policy recently approved by
shareholders. HCIL shall, subject to the overall supervision and
control of the Board, also undertake general administrative,
investor relations, marketing, portfolio management and risk
management functions for the Company.
2) In place of the original fee arrangements whereby HCIL
received an annual management fee of 1.75% of Net Asset Value and
an annual incentive fee of 20 % of any year on year increase in
audited Net Asset Value subject to a high water mark and
performance hurdle it will now be paid a fixed fee of US350,000 for
its services in connection with the orderly disposal and management
of the Legacy Portfolio and supporting the Company in its
operations. This represents a substantial reduction in fees as
compared to the previous agreement. Additionally, upon the
realisation of any assets comprised in the Legacy Portfolio, HCIL
will also be entitled to an incentive fee of 20%]calculated as a
percentageof the net proceeds received by the Company therefrom,
such fee only being payable once aggregate net proceeds from all
such disposals exceed an agreed hurdle.
3) HCIL's appointment under these revised terms is for a fixed
term of one year, capable of extension by mutual agreement between
HCIL and the Company.
John Croft, the Company's Executive Chairman, commented:
"In line with the recent change to our Investment Policy and
refocus of the Company, we remain committed to the orderly disposal
of our Legacy Portfolio. The revised Services Agreement with HCIL
has been negotiated to provide a better alignment with the
Company's current objectives.
This agreement reflects the importance that the Board places on
achieving exits from its China and other Asia based investments so
that surplus cash can be deployed into its revised investment
strategy.
Future investments will be made in asset backed income
generating investments and your Board hopes to be able to make
further announcements on this in the near future. "
