Chemical Company Inc.
"We were thrilled with
the opportunity to acquire the "Special Drugs Mixture Business"
from Avecia, however, our initial attempts to raise the financing were not
successful. We then engaged the services of Strategic Advisors who helped
us to create a business plan that more accurately portrayed the merits of
the opportunity while mitigating the risks. Using a well planned and efficient
process, Strategic Advisors received a great deal of interest from both senior
and subordinated lenders, giving us a wide variety of options from which to
choose. The results of the transaction were especially pleasing because we
were able to raise financing to complete the acquisition under very favorable
terms, enabling our shareholders to retain 100% ownership in the company."

"After
having had time to digest the accomplishment, I wanted to write again to
let you know how much Susquehanna Capital appreciated all of the hard work
Strategic Advisors put into the Project L transaction. You modeled it from
the start, assisted with presentations to both us and management, put together
the Memorandum, located a buyer and subsequently worked diligently (many
times behind the scenes) to get the deal done under the terms and conditions
initially set out. This was quite an accomplishment. Moreover, your learned
counsel to us on a number of issues was invaluable. Many thanks again for
a job "superbly" done."

"We
engaged Strategic Advisors to provide us with an independent assessment of
the options available to us with respect to our investment in Pinnacle Electronics.
They presented them in a clear and concise manner, professionally managed
the sale process we decided to pursue, and produced results which met or
exceeded our expectations in all areas of the transaction."

"Before
we completed a recapitalization of our company, we had little familiarity
with the private debt and equity markets. Strategic Advisors helped us to
better understand these markets and presented several strategic alternatives
based upon our goals and objectives. In addition, they recommended several
organizational changes to facilitate our ability to access the private debt
and equity markets and used a well-designed, efficient process to enable
us to complete the transaction with a cost of capital much lower than we
had anticipated. We were extremely impressed with their ability to manage
the process from beginning to end in a proficient and professional manner."

"Before
I hired Strategic Advisors I was not totally convinced that the involvement
of an Investment Banker was necessary to accomplish my objectives. Once
I began working with the team members at Strategic Advisors, however, it
became obvious that their involvement was invaluable to achieving my goal.
Their competence, diligence, patience, integrity and common sense guided
us expertly throughout the transaction."

"The
principals at Strategic Advisors accomplished exactly what I asked for
when I hired them. Their thorough understanding of the private debt and
equity markets and their ability to translate complex financial data and
legal issues into useful information enabled me to decide between restructuring
and sale alternatives. Instead of a “cookie cutter” approach,
they provided individualized and practical advice that led to a tailor-made
solution. Their involvement was key to my decision making process and helped
me complete the transaction at an excellent price with favorable terms."
