According to §27a WpHG we have been informed on 6 January 2012 in the name
of and on behalf of as follows:

ACP FUND V LLC, c/o Registered National Agents, Inc., 160 Greentree Drive,
Suite 101, Dover, DE 19904, Delaware, USA, and AMA CAPITAL PARTNERS LLC,
405 Lexington Avenue, 67th Floor, New York, NY 10174, USA, notified that as
of 30 December, 2011 ACP FUND V LLC has passed a threshold amount of  30%
of all voting rights in Lloyd Fonds AG, Amelungstraße 8-10, 20354 Hamburg,
Germany and has acquired 13,706,717 voting rights, thus 49,9% of all voting
rights in the company.

According to § 22 WpHG, the voting rights of ACP FUND V LLC will be
allocated to its managing partner, AMA CAPITAL PARTNERS LLC.

The acquisition of more than 30% of the voting rights in Lloyd Fonds AG by
ACP Fund V LLC serves strategic purposes of the investor.
As the date of this notification neither ACP FUND V LLC nor AMA CAPITAL
PARTNERS LLC intends to increase their number of voting rights in Lloyd
Fonds AG within the following twelve (12) months by means of acquisition or
otherwise. A future change of this intention cannot be excluded.
On 5th December, 2011 the general assembly of Lloyd Fonds AG has voted for
the appointment of Paul Leand and Jens Birkmann, both working for AMA
CAPITAL PARTNERS LLC, and Rodney Rayburn, of Värde Partners Inc., a
business partner of AMA CAPITAL PARTNERS LLC, as new members of the
supervisory board consisting of six members in total. Further influence on
the staffing of administrative, management or supervisory bodies is
currently not envisaged.
As the date of this notification neither ACP FUND V LLC nor AMA CAPITAL
PARTNERS LLC aims at significant changes to the capital structure of Lloyd
Fonds AG, neither with respect to the ratio between own funds and external
funds as well as the dividend policy.
The acquisition of voting rights has been financed by equity provided to
ACP FUND V LLC by its partners and by debt which has been provided by Värde
Partners Inc.
