During this complimentary, CLE-eligible webinar, they will review:
- Importance of Procedural Steps: How to use term sheets, letters of intent and checklists (i) to resolve key deal points early, (ii) to make the definitive agreement phase go more smoothly, and (iii) to anticipate pre- and post-closing issues that require resolution.
- Due Diligence Disclosures: How to make the “right” diligence requests, and what to do when diligence efforts uncover regulatory or compliance issues that may jeopardize the viability of the transaction or require modifications to the deal and deal documents before or after closing.
- Other Exposures: How to address other unique elements that arise in many health care transactions, including privacy and security risks when parties and their advisors share health information for diligence purposes; unique considerations when sharing competitively sensitive data; requesting “material nonpublic information” or other strategic financial and operating information under securities laws; maintaining attorney-client privilege; and erosion of value resulting from delays in closing caused by protracted regulatory reviews.
