<P>
<P>Svoboda, Collins ("SC") focuses on making equity investments in small
to medium-sized growth companies with revenues and pre-financing valuations
between $20 and $200 million. Within this range, investments are likely
to include (1) early stage financings of innovative businesses with compelling
business models; (2) financings of established companies with proven business
models for growth or liquidity purposes; and (3) management buy-outs and
recapitalizations of larger, more mature companies. SC does not require
control in its investments, but generally will require an ownership position of at least 20%.
SC will typically invest $1 to $10 million of equity in each transaction. For larger transactions requiring additional equity, SC intends to potentially draw on its limited partners, or to partner with another private equity group with similar objectives.
<P>The SC investment philosophy incorporates five components:
<UL>
<P><LI> A business partnership with existing management;
<P><LI> A strong industry and operational focus;
<P><LI> A commitment to the long-term growth of the portfolio companies;
<P><LI> Positive influence on the development of portfolio companies
through active investment management; and
<P><LI> Prudent capital structures.
