Rhinestahl Corporation on the acquisition of HYDRO Systems KG
Comprehensive legal advice to the US company Rhinestahl Corporation on all aspects of the acquisition of HYDRO Systems KG, including structuring, due diligence and contractual documentation. The acquisition led to the formation of RH Aero Systems, a company specialising in innovative aviation support concepts.
Under the leadership of the Frankfurt-based Taylor-Wessing partners Lars-Gerrit Lüßmann and Michael Sinhart, Formycon AG and ATHOS KG are merging their development activities in the field of so-called biosimilars, the follow-up products of biological medicines (biologics), in a long-term strategic partnership. The centrepiece of this agreement is Formycon AG’s participation in the rights of two biosimilars. The volume of the legally complex transaction (aggregate counter-performance) adds up to approximately 650 million euros.
