Clifford Chance has advised Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG on the capital increase of SURTECO SE. This transaction with a total issue volume of about EUR 80 million includes a capital increase against cash with indirect subscription rights, a pre-placement of subscription rights assigned to Berenberg and, possibly, a rump placement of unsubscribed new shares. The subscription offer will presumably end on 14 November 2013.

The Clifford Chance team comprised partner Sebastian Maerker, counsel Christian Wöckener-Erten and the associates Sven Kurzawe and Juliane Pogadl (all Banking and Capital Markets, Frankfurt) as well as partner Dr. Thomas Stohlmeier, counsel Dr. Christian Vogel and associate Dr. Jochen Buckel (all Corporate, Düsseldorf).
