Litigation

Lion Capital informs investors that, according to publicly available information on the official court portal, in case file no. 38735/3/2023, concerning an action filed by the claimant Lion Capital LLP, a legal entity of British nationality, regarding intellectual property rights related to the use of the trade name "Lion Capital" by our company, the Bucharest Tribunal issued the following ruling on May 27, 2025: "Partially admits the claim. Orders the defendant, LION CAPITAL S.A., to amend its trade name so that it no longer infringes upon the industrial property rights of the claimant. Prohibits the defendant, LION CAPITAL S.A., from using the name LION CAPITAL in its commercial activity, including but not limited to usage on the websites www.sif1.ro/ro and www.lion-capital.ro, as well as on the Bucharest Stock Exchange. Orders the defendant, LION CAPITAL S.A., to delete the domain name lion-capital.ro. Dismisses the action brought against the defendants THE NATIONAL TRADE REGISTER OFFICE and THE NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN INFORMATICS as being filed against parties lacking procedural standing. Dismisses the claimant's request to cancel the trade name Lion Capital S.A. as unsubstantiated. (...)"

The decision issued by the Bucharest Tribunal in case no. 38735/3/2023 is not final and may be appealed within 30 days from its official communication.
