Juridica Investments Limited
("Juridica" or the "Company")
Portfolio update
Juridica, a leading provider of capital to the law market, provides the
following portfolio update.
The Company is pleased to report a new investment in a patent portfolio from a
Fortune 500 company and a supplemental investment in an existing case that
insures a minimum return on the investment.
On 4 June 2010, Juridica made a $1.5 million investment in a new patent matter
designated Case 0210-M. This is the Company's second acquisition of a patent
portfolio asset directly from a Fortune 500 company. The patent portfolio covers
digital advertising technology where the claimholder expects a complaint to be
filed against seven or more defendants during the third quarter of 2010. This
new investment has broadened Juridica's relationships which now include an
additional Am Law 100 firm and one of the top intellectual property trial
lawyers in the US.
On 22 April 2010, Juridica made a $400,000 supplemental investment in Case
6509-A by purchasing an insurance contract that provides certainty to Juridica's
minimum returns from this case. The underlying case involves a significant
judgement for breach of contract, fraud and related claims. The judgement was
rendered in a US Federal court and is currently under appeal. Obtaining this
insurance contract reflects the Company's strategy to manage investment risk and
its desire to lock-in returns when appropriate. The terms of the insurance
contract provide that the insurer will pay the Company either:
a) $4.0 million if the case fails on appeal or at any future trial if the case
is remanded for a new trial;
b) the difference between $4.0 million and any settlement less than $4.0
million; or
c) $4.0 million if the case is not completed within five years from the
policy's date of inception.
Juridica's initial investment in Case 6509-A was $2.0 million. Once this case is
resolved, the Company is entitled to a return of its $2.0 investment plus a
premium calculated with regard to the time elapsed from the date of investment
to the date of final resolution which, depending on timing, ranges from $2.0
million to $5.5 million.
Richard W. Fields, Chairman and Chief Executive of Juridica Capital Management,
the Investment Manager, said: "We are delighted that an A.M. Best Company 'A'
rated insurer has recognised the investment quality of our portfolio. This
insurance policy is an industry first and eliminates Juridica's risk profile for
this particular investment."
