Representing an asset purchaser in a bankruptcy proceeding presents unique benefits and challenges
for a professional business advisor. Companies considering acquiring assets out of bankruptcy must
understand more than the simple concept of acquiring the target assets “free and clear,” under the
bankruptcy code. As such, professionals advising these companies must understand and be able to
counsel their clients regarding various matters, such as the benefits and drawbacks of serving as a
“stalking horse,” asset purchaser; drafting and negotiating the terms of an asset purchase agreement
and sale order with the bankrupt debtor and other parties involved in the bankruptcy proceedings;
strategies for acquiring assets at auction or by alternative means; and seeking bankruptcy court
approval of a proposed transaction. This webinar focuses on understanding these concepts and
addressing best practices for advanced reorganization practitioners and advisors.
This webinar is delivered in Plain English, understandable to you even if you do not have a background
in the subject. It brings you into an engaging, even sometimes humorous, conversation designed to
entertain as it teaches. And, it is specifically designed to be viewed as a stand-alone webinar, meaning
that you do not have to view the other webinars in the series to get a lot out of it.
