Description

Our panel of experienced private equity M&A practitioners will discuss recent developments in private equity M&A deal terms, including current market provisions and evolving trends.

Counsel advising buyers and sellers in private equity M&A transactions must be knowledgeable about these developments to advise their clients effectively. Counsel should determine the most suitable and tailored deal terms for the transaction documents for their deals.

Listen as our panel of expert M&A practitioners reviews the latest trends in M&A deal terms where a private equity firm, as a buyer or a seller, has significant control or leverage over the transaction process. The panel will discuss best practices for negotiating provisions regarding rollover equity, the growth-through-acquisition strategy, earnouts, debt financing and seller paper, reverse break-up fees, and representation and warranty insurance in private equity M&A deals.
