Beware the Boilerplate (Oct 2017)

A loan is only as good as its documents. When the time comes to enforce a loan or guaranty, the devil is in the drafting—and that includes those standard provisions at the back of the document. Drafters tempted to copy these terms from deal to deal as mere “boilerplate” do so at their peril, because these standard provisions can have case-dispositive effect. Drawing on real case studies, learn why contract terms involving waiver, merger and integration, choice of law and venue, and others deserve a second look.

Developing and operating a large retail shopping mall, with several separately-owned anchor stores, requires carefully drafted and coordinated covenants, restrictions, access easements, joint parking agreements, operating agreements, ground leases, and other real estate interests. But what happens when this use of the property becomes obsolete and there are new redevelopment opportunities? Using a case study, examine what has to be done to deconstruct the complex set of property rights and interests and create new redevelopment opportunities.
