As you know New Media Growth Fund (NMGFund.com) is interested in investing in xyz Ltd to enable the company to expand and exploit the database and technology that it owns and the customer relationships it is currently building. Any investment however must be based broadly on the following principals:-

The company must be a UK registered company seeking its first round of funding initial friends and family and seed funding allowed for.
The investment shall be no more than £2m ( Two Million pounds sterling) subject to valuation , all of which must be paid to the company via an issue of new shares.
The £2m million investment shall be represented by no less than 25% of the entire issued share capital of the company which may not be diluted prior to NMG Fund exiting the company

NMG Fund will require the written agreement of the major shareholders that they will not sell their shares prior to NMG Fund exiting the company and that they will not exercise any share options if so doing would dilute NMG Fund shareholding.
NMG Fund will require representation at board level which reflects the proposed shareholding.
NMG Fund will require certain safeguards for its investment in the form of entrenchment of certain matters (to be agreed) as special resolutions in the articles of association of the company and the agreement of the major shareholders to procure such amendments are made.

The above information does not constitute an offer , nor is it intended to create a legally binding obligation which shall arise only upon NMG Fund entering into formal agreements with the company and relevant shareholders, nor does it purport to be an exhaustive list of issues but it is intended to promote further discussion on NMG Fund involvement in XYZ Ltd.

We look forward to hearing your response so we can can commence due diligence. I never discuss other peoples projects although I do know the parties you mention I would never discuss their business that they have discussed with me with out first seeking their permission to do so.

New media is a broad term that emerged in the later part of the 20th century to encompass the amalgamation of traditional media such as film, images, music, spoken and written word, with the interactive power of computer and communications technology, computer-enabled consumer devices and most importantly the internet.

New media holds out a possibility of on-demand access to content any time, anywhere, on any digital device, as well as interactive user feedback, creative participation and community formation around the media content.

What distinguishes New media from traditional media is not the digitizing of media content into bits, but the dynamic life of the "new media" content and its interactive relationship with the media consumer. Another important promise of New Media is the "democratization" of the creation, publishing, distribution and consumption of media content.

Thus, a high-definition digital television broadcast of a film viewed on a digital plasma TV is still an example of traditional media, while an "analog" paper poster of a local rock band that contains a web address where fans can find information and digital music downloads is an example of New media communication.

A hedge fund is an investment fund open to a limited range of investors that undertakes a wider range of investment and trading activities in addition to traditional long-only investment funds, and that, in general, pays a performance fee to its investment manager. Every hedge fund has its own investment strategy that determines the type of investments and the methods of investment it undertakes. Hedge funds, as a class, invest in a broad range of investments including shares, debt and commodities. Some people consider the fund created in 1949 by Alfred Winslow Jones to be the first hedge fund.

As the name implies, hedge funds often seek to hedge some of the risks inherent in their investments using a variety of methods, most notably short selling and derivatives. However, the term "hedge fund" has also come to be applied to certain funds that do not hedge their investments, and in particular to funds using short selling and other "hedging" methods to increase rather than reduce risk, with the expectation of increasing the return on their investment.

In most jurisdictions hedge funds are open only to a limited range of professional or wealthy investors who meet certain criteria set by regulators but, in exchange, hedge funds are exempt from many regulations that govern ordinary investment funds. The regulations thus exempted typically include restrictions on short selling, the use of derivatives and leverage, fee structures, and on the liquidity of interests in the fund. Light regulation and the presence of performance fees are the distinguishing characteristics of hedge funds.

The net asset value of a hedge fund can run into many billions of dollars, and the gross assets of the fund will usually be higher still due to leverage. Hedge funds dominate certain specialty markets such as trading within derivatives with high-yield ratings and distressed debt.
