On September 14, 2010, Evercore Partners Inc. and certain affiliates (“Evercore”) announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire a 50% interest in G5 Holdings S.A. and certain affiliates (“G5 advisors”), a São Paulo-based independent investment banking boutique and investment management firm. G5 advisors’ partners have advised companies in a number of the largest and most complex transactions involving Brazilian companies over the past two decades. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Evercore will pay $20 million in cash and Evercore securities at closing, with the potential for earn out payments based on performance through 2013. The transaction is expected to be moderately accretive to earnings under a range of growth rates for the business and is expected to close in early October 2010. Following the closing, the partners of G5 advisors will own the remaining 50% of the company. Evercore will have an opportunity to acquire the remaining 50% beginning in 2014.
