--- Begin Message ----Caveat Lector- Financial Times November 13, 2003Hollinger probes Perle trades By Stephanie Kirchgaessner in London Hollinger International is examining investments made by Richard Perle, the prominent US defence adviser who is a Hollinger director, on behalf of the company. The investigation is part of a wider internal probe at the publisher of the Chicago Sun-Times and the UK's Daily Telegraph into some of the company's corporate governance practices, including the payment of nearly $300m in management fees to Conrad Black, chief executive and chairman, and his deputies. That inquiry, which is being led by Richard Breeden, former US Securities and Exchange Commission chairman, is wide-ranging. It involves close scrutiny of so-called "related-party transactions", or deals in which members of Hollinger's board or Hollinger executives benefited from deals the publisher agreed with other companies. One transaction was a $2.5m investment in Trireme Partners, a venture capital company in which Mr Perle, an independent director, is a managing partner. Mr Perle had also played a prominent role in the late 1990s and early 2000 in directing investments in other companies through Hollinger Digital, Hollinger's investment arm. Also under review is a $14m investment the company made under Mr Perle's direction through Hillman Capital, a venture capital group controlled by Gerald Hillman - who has since become a partner at Trireme and, like Mr Perle, is a member of the US Defense Policy Board. Paul Healy, the head of investor relations at Hollinger, refused to comment. Mr Perle and Mr Hillman were both unavailable for comment.
