The webinar will address current trends in jurisprudence regarding pre-contractual liability in M&A transactions.

Agenda

  • Negotiation agreements and other quasi-contractual structures (letter of intent, term sheet, etc) as a tool for settling negotiation processes

  • Bad faith withdrawal from negotiations:

    • Court analysis of the parties’ correspondence aimed at resolving the issue of a party’s bad faith withdrawal from the negotiation process
    • Duration of the negotiation process as a basis for recognising the withdrawal from negotiations as bad faith
    • Creating reasonable expectations for a party to the negotiation process as a basis for recognising the withdrawal from the negotiations as bad faith

  • Possibility of recovering lost profit for bad faith negotiations
