GA_P advises FacePhi Biometrics on its new investment agreement with Nice & Green with a maximum value of 20 million euros
18 of December, 2020
Gómez-Acebo & Pombo has advised on the design and implementation of the second equity line, for a maximum amount of 20 million euros, between the Swiss entity Nice & Green and FacePhi Biometría, S.A., a company whose shares are incorporated in BME Growth (formerly MAB). This operation was especially important as, due to its particular legal regime, the company could not delegate the exclusion of pre-emption rights, so the operation was carried out through the issue of warrants and a parachute resolution from the shareholders in General Meeting.
Guillermo Guerra and Jacobo Palanca, partner and lawyer respectively in the Corporate & Commercial Practice Area, advised on the operation.
