After failing to get the answers they were seeking from Fakih, the Kuwait-based investors retained A. Farber & Partners Inc. to assess the state of the business and potential restructuring options. They say the report revealed Fakih and his company, Fakih Group Inc., owe nearly $12 million to the business.
Fakih disputes the allegations and took action against his business partners last year, accusing them of failing to live up to their obligations to the business.Article content Part of that fundamental understanding was that “Mr. Fakih and the Noureddine Parties would promptly fund all operational shortfalls or required capitalization for the ongoing business pro rata with their respective shareholdings,” the documents claim, and “to the extent that Mr. Fakih’s role in the management of Paramount led to any potential personal liability, the Noureddine Parties would indemnify and hold Mr. Fakih harmless in proportion to their shareholdings.
Further, Fakih accuses his business partner of “directly pressuring and instructing Paramount employees to pressure business counterparties, making representations and commitments on behalf of Paramount to business counterparties without authorization, and ultimately withdrawing those commitments without regard to the resources wasted in the course of negotiations, all of which gave rise to strained relationships and in some cases led to disputes and litigation.
