The company was sold to WestLB,[5] and went into administration in June 2003, causing WestLB to register a €650 million bad debt charge.[6][7][8] The company was bought out of administration in January 2005, by Fortess Investment Group for £135 million.[9] In May 2011, the Fortress and Cerberus sold the business to Weight Partners.[10] References1. ^http://www.boxclever.co.uk/ 2. ^{{cite news|title=Box Clever deal saves 400 jobs|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/i/matrix/the-business-matrix-friday-6-may-2011-2279714.html?origin=internalSearch|publisher=Independent|accessdate=30 March 2013|location=London|date=6 May 2011}} 3. ^{{cite news|title=Alchemy offers £200m for Boxclever buyout|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/2863754/Alchemy-offers-200m-for-Boxclever-buyout.html|publisher=Telegraph|accessdate=30 March 2013|location=London|first=Damian|last=Reece|date=21 September 2003}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Hands set to buy back struggling TV business|url=http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/business/industries/banking/article2164228.ece|publisher=The Times|accessdate=30 March 2013}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=WestLB pulls plug on boxclever service unit|url=http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/business/article2108944.ece|publisher=The Times|accessdate=30 March 2013}} 6. ^{{cite book|title=The Law of Corporate Finance: General Principles and Eu Law|year=2010|publisher=Springer Publishing|isbn=978-3-642-03057-4|page=377|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=h7g5L8VtP58C&pg=PA377&dq=%22boxclever%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=VqpWUff5H7Di4AP_qoCIBA&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=%22boxclever%22&f=false}} 7. ^{{cite book|last=Slatter|first=Stuart|title=Leading Corporate Turnaround: How Leaders Fix Troubled Companies|year=2006|publisher=Wiley|isbn=978-0-470-02559-8|pages=215–216|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=RyKE9vVHUTIC&pg=PT269&dq=%22boxclever%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=VqpWUff5H7Di4AP_qoCIBA&ved=0CDcQ6AEwAQ}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=Boxclever blow for Saunders|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/news/boxclever-blow-for-saunders-6972478.html|publisher=Standard|accessdate=30 March 2013}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/news/boxclever-set-to-be-sold-at-big-loss-7206171.html|title=Boxclever set to be sold at big loss|publisher=www.standard.co.uk|date=18 January 2005|accessdate=12 June 2018}} 10. ^{{cite news|title=Weight Partners buys rental firm Boxclever|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/weight-partners-buys-rental-firm-boxclever-2279781.html?origin=internalSearch|publisher=Independent|accessdate=30 March 2013|location=London|first=James|last=Thompson|date=6 May 2011}} External links
