Overview (Program Summary)
In corporate transactions and restructurings, a client may ask whether or not there is some impact due to a party having Government contracts, and there very well may be. Indeed, statutes restrict the transfer of Government contracts between entities, may limit the pool of potential buyers/investors, or may require Government approval or notification. And these requirements may differ depending on whether the planned action is a stock purchase, asset sale, name change, corporate conversion, merger, etc. . . . or a combination of any of these activities. This session will provide an overview of the Government’s restrictions and common approval and notification requirements as well as how those items may impact a transaction or the financing of one.
What you will be able to do after participating in this session:
- Explain the Government’s main restrictions as related to corporate transactions.
- Identify the potential need for addressing Government procedures that may be required before, during, or after the transaction, including novation, recertification, and registrations.
