Tetragon Financial Group Limited (TFG) Announcement

LONDON, March 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

As previously announced, on February 22, 2011, Tetragon Financial Group Limited, Tetragon Financial Group Master Fund Limited (together "TFG") and TFG's six directors were served with proceedings in the Royal Court of Guernsey (the "Guernsey Proceedings") instigated by one of TFG's former directors, Alexander Jackson, seeking to impugn TFG's decision to enter into a joint venture with GreenOak Real Estate.  On March 26, 2013, Lieutenant Bailiff Patrick Talbot of the Royal Court of Guernsey rendered his decision and dismissed the Guernsey Proceedings having determined that the entire claim should be struck out as an abuse of process as no aspect of it satisfied the standard for bringing such a derivative action in Guernsey.  Lieutenant Bailiff Talbot also awarded costs against Mr. Jackson.

Separately, on March 1, 2013, the English Court of Appeal dismissed in its entirety a claim filed by Mr. Jackson against Patrick Dear and Reade Griffith in the High Court in London regarding Mr. Jackson's removal in January 2011 from the Board of Directors of TFG and awarded costs against Mr. Jackson.
