Leverator - Interim report (Q1 and Q3)
LEVERATOR PLC INTERIM REPORT 1 JANUARY – 31 MARCH 2009
Leverator Plc Stock Exchange Release 12 May 2009 at 11.30 a.m.
LEVERATOR PLC INTERIM REPORT 1 JANUARY - 31 MARCH 2009
Business
Leverator Plc's (Leverator) business consists of the issue of bonds and the
grant of loans to CapMan Mezzanine IV L.P. mezzanine fund (CMM IV). Leverator's
result is formed by the difference between interest received from CMM IV's loans
and interest paid to bondholders. The issued bonds are listed on the Helsinki
Exchanges.
Bonds
Leverator has issued a serial loan with a fixed coupon interest of 8.162%. The
bonds will be issued in a maximum of five tranches in accordance with the loan
capital needed by CMM IV, and investors have committed to subscribe all five
tranches. The last tranche will be issued no later than 18 June 2009.
The tranches have a maximum size of MEUR 60 each. The maximum total issue is
MEUR 192. The bonds' trading lot is MEUR 0.5 and the final loan maturity is 21
June 2016. Leverator has a call option to repay the bonds or part thereof not
earlier than 22 June 2009. In the event that the bonds are called prior to 22
June 2011, a premature payment premium is paid as specified in the listing
particulars.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 2nd tranche | 5 June 2006 | 40.0 | 13 June 2006 | 99.137 |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 3rd tranche | 28 March 2007 | 48.0 | 13 April 2007 | 98.290 |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No tranches were issued during the review period. Leverator's turnover for the
review period was EUR 0, because the Company's interest earnings and interest
expenses are presented as financial items in the income statement. Leverator's
operating loss was EUR 10,787 (EUR 9,408 for the review period 1 January - 31
March 2008) and financial income and expenses totalled EUR 31,888 (EUR 34,096).
The result for the review period was EUR 12,071 (EUR 14,993).
Leverator's solvency and risks
The security for the bonds is Leverator's receivable from CMM IV. The security
for this receivable to Leverator is CMM IV's mezzanine loan receivables from
portfolio companies as well as associated options and portfolio company shares
that are possibly subscribed on the basis of those options.
Leverator's solvency to pay the bonds' interest and principal is based on CMM
IV's solvency to pay the loan receivable and interest to Leverator. CMM IV's
solvency is dependent on its mezzanine loan receivables from portfolio companies
and on the value of associated options or shares as well as on CMM IV's right to
call the commitments and clawback of the Fund's Limited Partners and on the
credit limit of CMM IV. The most significant risks or uncertainty factors in
Leverator's operations are that the portfolio companies would not be able to pay
their debt to the fund, that the fund's Limited Partners would not be able to
fulfil their obligations in accordance with fund agreement or that the fund's
solvency would be put at risk due to some other cause.
An examination of CMM IV's solvency to manage the loan receivable to Leverator
is first carried out in order to determine Leverator's solvency.

| Credit limit balance | -41.8 |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Total | 126.0 |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The values given above are reported by CMM IV's management company. The
management company's assessment of the value appreciation of mezzanine loans and
associated options and shares is based on reporting principles common to the
private equity industry. These principles aim at take into account risk factors
caused by the general economic environment. The amount of commitments and
clawback that the fund has a right to call from the Fund's Limited Partners is
based on CMM IV's fund agreement.

Leverator's solvency exceeds the balance of the bonds.
Leverator's more detailed financial position is presented in the income
statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement in Appendix 1. There are no
exceptional liabilities of Leverator or CMM IV in the knowledge of Leverator's
Board of Directors that should be considered in the above calculations.
Leverator's ownership
The owners of Leverator Plc are CapMan Plc, Etera Mutual Pension Insurance
Company, Foundation for Economic Education, Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance
Company, OP Life Assurance Company Ltd, Pharmacy Pension Fund, Mandatum Life
Insurance Company Limited, Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company and Yleisradio
Pension Fund with equal holdings.
Leverator's management
On 12 May 2009 the shareholders of Leverator Plc elected the following members
to the Company's Board of Directors: Mr Risto Autio, Mr Karri Alameri, Mr Kari
Joutsa, Mr Harri Lemmetti, Mr Olli Liitola, Mr Jyrki Orpana, Mr Jorma Tammenaho,
Mr Hannu Tarkkonen and Mr Kyösti Ylikortes. The members elected Mr Jyrki Orpana
as Chairman of the Board.
Adoption of IFRS standards (IAS)
As of 1 January 2007, Leverator Plc has adopted International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS) in its financial reporting.
Events after the review period
Leverator issued the fourth tranche on 28 April 2009. The size of the fourth
tranche was MEUR 36.0 and the subscription price was 97.389%. The tranche was
listed on 5 May 5009.
After the review period Leverator forwarded a MEUR 36.0 loan to CMM IV from the
proceeds received from the issue of the second tranche.
Future outlook
Developments in the general market environment in the next few years may cause
difficulties in the ability of fund's portfolio companies to pay interest on
their mezzanine loans and repay principal to the fund. This, in turn, might
weaken the fund's ability to meet in full its debt to Leverator Plc, which would
affect Leverator Plc's solvency. The last possible date of issue of the last
tranche is 18 June 2009. It is highly probable that the Company's interest
earnings will cover its interest payable and other expenses in 2009.
Leverator Plc will publish its Interim Report 1 January - 31 June 2009 on 7
August 2009.
