CMS has advised ING, the lead mandated arranger and book runner for the EUR 100 million financing of MHP’s acquisition of Slovenian poultry producer Perutnina Ptuj.

MHP is a poultry producer in Ukraine and, following completion of the transaction at the beginning of this year (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on March 6, 2019), it has become the owner of 90.69 percent of Perutnina Ptuj. 

The CMS cross-border team was led by Warsaw-based Partner Mark Segall and Kyiv-based Senior Associate Kateryna Chechulina, assisted by Partner Tetyana Dovgan, Associate Khrystyna Korpan, and Lawyer Ivan Pshyk in Kyiv and Partner Maja Zgajnar in Ljubljana.

Editor's Note: After this article was published CEE Legal Matters learned that ODI Law advised MHP on the compliance of the financing underlying its acquisition of Perutnina Ptuj with Slovenian law, as well as for the acquisition itself. The firm's team on the financing compliance issues was led by Managing Partner Uros Ilic, assisted by Senior Associate Primoz Mikolic and Managing Associate Klemen Kos.
