摘要

A new lawsuit, a failed acquisition bid and the loss of its anchor Israeli Ministry of Defense operating partner are the latest complications confronting ImageSat International (ISI) and its Eros satellite program. The latest lawsuit, by stakeholders led by Pegasus Capital Advisors, L.P., a New York-based equity investment firm, includes new allegations of conflicting interests, contractual breaches and corporate raiding of ISI by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) and Elbit Systems, major shareholders with controlling interest in the commercial satellite firm. Unlike three pending lawsuits against ISI and majority shareholders, the newest complaint, filed Dec. 15 in U.S. Southern District Court of New York, is not directed at ISI, but IAI and Elbit directors on the ISI board. In their eight-count, $1.7 billion complaint, plaintiffs - all U.S. investors who put up some 80 percent of the capital used to launch and sustain ISI - repeated earlier claims that IAI and Elbit "raided" the company of customers, cash and business potential in pursuit of competing commercial imaging ventures. But in new allegations, plaintiffs faulted IAI and Elbit representatives on the ISI board for foiling a serious opportunity to sell ISI, and recoup the $91 million that Pegasus and its associated American shareholders invested in the conflict-mired and steadily depreciating firm. According to the complaint, plaintiffs had contractual rights to demand the sale of ISI once long-held plans for an initial public offering never materialized. Moreover, plaintiffs insisted IAI and Elbit were obligated "to use their best efforts" to pursue the sale of the company, whose value, sources say, has plummeted from some $400 million to $500 million in 2005 to today's rough estimate of some $120 million.
