Constantin Medien AG files suits against KF 15 GmbH and Kuhn Rechtsanwälte
Ismaning, April 27, 2018 - Constantin Medien AG has today decided to file
suits against KF 15 GmbH and Kuhn Rechtsanwälte.
The subject of the suits against KF 15 GmbH is, on the one hand, the
Company's repayment claims of approx. EUR 2.05 million due to incorrect
accounting with regards to the profit sharing agreement of the Formula 1
prosecuting group. On the other hand, Constantin Medien AG is also filing a
further suit for accounting against KF 15 GmbH, as the latter has so far
failed, despite corresponding requests, to provide proof of approx. EUR 3.45
million worth of costs for the prosecution in the Formula 1 lawsuit, that
were alleged in its favor and reported in the settlement by KF 15 GmbH.
KF 15 GmbH is a company controlled by the former Chairman of the Supervisory
Board Dr Dieter Hahn. In the relevant period from July 2016 until the Annual
General Meeting of Constantin Medien AG in August 2017, Dr Hahn had at his
disposal at least 25 percent of the voting rights in Constantin Medien AG,
attributable to him via KF 15 GmbH and DHV GmbH.
The subject of the case against Kuhn Rechtsanwälte, the law office of the
former Supervisory Board Member Dr Bernd Kuhn, is claims for payment based
on the receipt of unjustified fees in the amount of approx. EUR 657,000.
The company is examining further claims against former Board Members.
