Description

The Law of Mergers and Acquisitions 6th Edition Jeffrey J. Haas ISBN 9781636594552

This coursebook introduces students to the fundamentals of corporate acquisition planning. Beyond state corporate law and federal securities regulation, it addresses a broad range of related legal issues, including tax, accounting, environmental, products liability, pension, antitrust, national security, bankruptcy, and labor law. By situating these traditionally separate subjects within the framework of specific transactions, the book offers an integrated, transaction-focused approach to acquisitions and reorganizations, including private equity buyouts.

Each topical unit brings together the statutes, regulations, and case law that shape the structure and timing of acquisition transactions. Questions and problems guide students through the law’s core distinctions, while textual notes and edited articles surface and critically examine the empirical and political assumptions embedded in governing standards. The new edition updates all subject areas and expands coverage of key recent developments, including material adverse effect clauses in the wake of COVID-19; post–M & F Worldwide developments and changes to DGCL Section 144; the shift from the Blasius compelling justification standard to Coster’s more robust Unocal framework for board conduct; new rules and litigation surrounding SPAC transactions; SEC amendments to Schedules 13D and 13G; HSR notification and CFIUS review processes; and the evolving landscape of shareholder activism in the United States and abroad.
