Tauil & Chequer Advogados advises EPR on R$250 million financing
Tauil & Chequer Advogados in association with Mayer Brown advised EPR, a holding company owned by Equipav and investment vehicles managed by Perfin for investments in highway concessions, on the equity financing of the Lote 2 concession in Paraná, which covers some of the state's main highways.
The financing, worth a total of R$ 250 million, was structured through EPR's first issuance of debentures, the proceeds of which will be used for the capital structure of the concessionaire for Lote 2 concession. The structuring of the financing and the placement of the debentures were carried out by the banks Bradesco BBI, Itaú BBA and BTG Pactual.
The group already holds three state concessions in Minas Gerais, with 30-year contracts, in which we also participated. Now, EPR will take on its first federal concession with Lote 2 in Paraná.
The team advising EPR, as well as Perfin and Equipav, was led by partner Luis Montes and included associates Beatriz Lavigne and Paulo Hirata.
