New Hampshire State Approved Sessions

Join us for the first session of a three-part webinar series, hosted by ABI Capital Partner SC&H Capital. This first session will discuss the sales of private credit lender collateral, as well as capture key considerations in mergers and acquisitions in the current and near-term markets. With a focus on the use of private credit and traditional and alternative financing vehicles, industry leaders will discuss how the strategies for and structures of merger-and-acquisition transactions have changed, and what is expected in the current, future and volatile markets. The third session, taking place in November, will address how officers and directors must focus on complex issues and elevated responsibilities in the context of these types of transactions. Attendees will gain valuable insights — from investment bankers, attorneys and financial advisors who are on the front lines of these kinds of transactions — that will inform them now and in the future.

Secured lenders work with debtors and committees in large chapter 11 cases to modify the environment in which the chapter 11 estate proceeds. This panel will examine the contemporary attributes of negotiated modifications and accommodations in connection with cash-collateral stipulations, DIP financing agreements, bidding procedure orders and chapter 11 plans. The panel will also consider whether any of the typical compromises are questionable in light of decisions, such as Jevic, that challenge the ability of courts and constituents to modify the structure of the chapter 11 playing field.
