DLA Piper has advised Bank Pekao, one of Poland’s largest banks, on the provision of financing to Norwegian private equity firm, Hawk Infinity, to acquire 100% of the shares in e-file, a leading Polish software developer.
e-file provides cloud-based, regulatory-compliant solutions for tax returns, invoicing and accounting, serving individual taxpayers, SMEs and accounting practices.
DLA Piper provided comprehensive advisory support for the financing, the drafting of the credit agreement and related financing documentation and also assisted Bank Pekao in fulfilling precedent conditions and facilitating the accession of the acquired business to the credit agreement.
A team from DLA Piper’s Warsaw office worked on the transaction led by Finance partner Katarzyna Jakubiak, senior associate Anna Tomaszewska, and associate Krystian Kurgan.
