Hengeler Mueller advises KKR on its minority investment in space and technology company OHB

OHB SE ("OHB"), the German space and technology company, today announced the strengthening of its capital base to implement its growth strategy, with KKR as a minority investor. To this end, OHB has signed an investment agreement with KKR and the Fuchs Family Foundation as the majority shareholder of OHB, as well as with investment vehicles controlled by the Fuchs family. The agreement includes a voluntary public takeover offer of KKR for all outstanding shares of OHB as well as a separate agreement on a capital increase of 10% of the share capital of OHB. The Fuchs family will not sell any of its shares and will thereby retain the majority shareholder of OHB.

KKR will also invest through convertible instruments in Rocket Factory Augsburg AG, a portfolio company of OHB. Rocket Factory Augsburg AG develops the microlauncher RFA One.
