Corporate and Fiduciary Litigation attorney K. Tyler O’Connell is featured as a speaker on the panel, “Where Do We Go From Here?!,” at the American Bar Association’s Business Law Fall Meeting in San Diego. The panel takes place on Friday, September 13, from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM.
Tyler will be joined by an esteemed group of panelists, including Deborah Walker Kool of Fredrikson & Byron, P.A., Gerald Grant of Sidley Austin, Michele Johnson of Latham & Watkins, John Mark Zeberkiewicz of Richards, Layton & Finger, and Dan Cole of Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP. Together, they will address the Delaware decision that invalidated provisions of a shareholder agreement between Ken Moelis and the company of the same name. The discussion will focus on typical protective provisions in shareholder, activist settlement, merger, and other agreements that could impact the board’s management under Section 141(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL). The panel will also explore the amendments to Section 122 of the DGCL, their implications for corporate agreements, strategies to avoid litigation, and best practices for advising companies and boards.
This panel offers valuable insights and practical guidance for those interested in corporate litigation and the changing landscape of Delaware corporate law.
