H.I.G. Acquires M.J. Maillis Group

HAMBURG – February 10, 2015 – H.I.G. Europe, the European affiliate of H.I.G., a global investment firm focused on small

and mid-sized companies, announced that it has completed the acquisition of the M.J. Maillis Group. After signing a

comprehensive debt and equity restructuring agreement with Companyʼs lenders in June 2014, an affiliate of H.I.G. has

acquired the Maillis Group through a series of transactions including a public takeover bid and a debt-to-equity swap. As a

result of the transaction, the shares of the Maillis Group were also delisted from the Athens Stock Exchange.

Established in 1968, the Maillis Group is the world's second largest manufacturer of end-of-line packaging equipment and

offers its customers "one-stop solutions". In addition to supplying consumables such as strapping and film products, Maillis

produces innovative packaging machines under well-known brand names including Wulftec & SIAT and offers its customers

international after-sales services.

Maillis is an international company with seven production sites located in Germany, Greece, Italy, Poland, Canada and the

United States. Currently, the company has approximately 1,500 employees. With more than 15,000 customers and a broad

product portfolio, the company generates more than €260 million in revenues, less than 5% of which are in Greece.

Michael Maillis, Founder and Chairman of the Board, commented on the transaction: "H.I.G. has shown considerable

patience to finally agree on terms with the Groupʼs lenders. Together with H.I.G., the new management of the Group will

focus on growth and on improving our internal processes in order to improve the Groupʼs responsiveness to our customersʼ

packaging needs."

Wolfgang Biedermann, Managing Director of H.I.G. Europe, added: "H.I.G. is very pleased with the Maillis transaction. This is

a landmark transaction in Greece as it is one of the first capital restructurings of a private enterprise in close cooperation

with local banks. With H.I.G., the Maillis Group not only has new ownership, but also a financially strong partner to

accelerate growth and to improve the profitability in the years to come."
