Live date: Tuesday, August 27, 2024
During the course of preliminary due diligence for merger and acquisition (M&A) transactions, there are several action items (in addition to the work on negotiating the terms and drafting the main operative agreements for an M&A transaction) which are important conditions for precedents that are required to be satisfied. This webinar, Mergers and Acquisitions: The Art of an Efficient Closing, is geared toward junior attorneys and focuses on public record due diligence items that, if managed well during the lifecycle of the M&A transaction, will support an efficient closing and avoid last-minute issues prior to the effective date of the M&A closing.
Mergers and Acquisitions:
The Art of an Efficient Closing
In this webinar, we discuss:
- Key M&A definitions
- New requirement: The Corporate Transparency Act
- Public record items on the closing checklist
- UCC Article 9 and other liens
- Public record due diligence: Corporate
- Post-merger public record filings
There is no fee to view the webinar, but registration is required.
