Mr. Klinge joined LLCP as a Director in December 2004 and is a dedicated member of the Firm’s Deep Value investment team. He is responsible for the Fund’s origination of investment opportunities, investment due diligence, portfolio management and portfolio exits.

Prior to joining the Firm, he was a Principal at William E. Simon & Sons for six years where he co-founded the Special Situations Group. This Group consisted of three funds totaling $225 million of capital for opportunistic investing at all levels of the capital structure with particular emphasis on undervalued bank debt and high yield notes. Mr. Klinge was responsible for all execution and credit functions for each investment position recommended to the Simon investment committee.

Prior to joining William E. Simon & Sons, Mr. Klinge spent 15 years at Bank of America where he sourced, executed and managed investments in the secondary market for the Bank’s proprietary $600 million High-Yield / Distressed Investment Fund. In addition, Mr. Klinge managed the sale of over $800 million of the Bank’s loan portfolio to the secondary distressed debt market. Mr. Klinge also represented the Bank as agent and lender in the management of its troubled U.S. corporate loan portfolio in out-of-court restructurings, Chapter 11 reorganizations and Chapter 7 liquidations.
