As SPAC litigation continues to proliferate, it is more important than ever that officers and directors of companies undertaking a de-SPAC transaction be mindful of litigation risks and adopt strategies for managing them. After all, a de-SPAC transaction—by definition—thrusts a formerly private enterprise into the more litigious world of publicly traded companies.
Vinson & Elkins will conduct a webinar on this topic Oct. 26 from 1-2 ET.
The presentation will survey the different types of securities and M&A litigation arising from de-SPAC transactions—including Delaware fiduciary duty litigation, federal securities class actions, derivative lawsuits, SEC investigations, and de-SPAC counterparty litigation. It will also address the circumstances and factual allegations commonly giving rise to these types of litigation, with a particular focus on proxy disclosures and short seller reports.
