Session 1: How Representation and Warranty Insurance is Changing the Game - The “Insured Deal” is here to stay. Go beyond the basics and drill-down into provisions that should be negotiated and practices that should evolve when an insured deal is in play.
 
Session 2: Special Issues in Acquisitions of Venture-Backed Companies - Why is a VC-backed target different, and how do those differences impact the process pursued and provisions negotiated? Examine critical and complicated issues that commonly arise in acquisitions of VC-backed companies, including complex waterfalls, blurring of management incentives with purchase price, disproportionate allocation of indemnity risk among stockholders/stakeholders, and fiduciary duties of VC-nominated directors.
 
Session 3: More Cake: Advanced Issues in Carve-Outs and Divestitures - An in-depth discussion of advanced issues in carveout transactions, including preparing your sell-side client for a divisional sale, advising your buy-side client on separation issues, navigating multi-jurisdictional carveouts and negotiating transition services, including data from the ABA Merger and Acquisitions Committee’s Carveout Deal Points Study.
