(together with its affiliates, \u201cIndaba\u201d or \u201cwe\u201d), which is the largest unaffiliated shareholder of MDC Partners Inc. (NASDAQ: MDCA) (\u201cMDC\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), today questioned Stagwell Media LP\u2019s (\u201cStagwell\u201d) announcement of its intention to recommend the appointment of Eli Samaha of Madison Avenue Partners, LP (\u201cMadison\u201d) to the newly-combined entity\u2019s Board of Directors (the \u201cBoard\u201d).\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDerek Schrier, Managing Partner of Indaba, commented:\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIn direct conversations with Indaba, Mr. Samaha disclosed that Madison\u2019s principal investor is a high school classmate and long-time, ongoing friend of Mark Penn, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of MDC and Managing Partner of Stagwell. We have received feedback from other MDC shareholders that Mr. Samaha disclosed similar information to them. Stagwell\u2019s July 15<sup>th<\/sup> press release omits Madison\u2019s link to Mr. Penn while boasting that Mr. Samaha <i>\u2018will bring strong independent perspective\u2019 <\/i>to the Board. This seemingly deceptive stunt reinforces to us that this transaction process is plagued by alarming conflicts and concerning interlocks. It gives us great concern that Stagwell and Mr. Penn appear to have disregarded the need for transparency with MDC shareholders when announcing Madison\u2019s support and Mr. Samaha\u2019s possible service as a director.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAt bottom, last night\u2019s development reinforces our opposition to the transaction on its current terms. It is clear to us that Mr. Penn will say anything to get his way. This type of operating mentality is a flashing red light when it comes to corporate governance.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"bwuline\">About Indaba Capital<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nIndaba was founded in 2010 to invest in corporate equity and debt.
