Introduction to Mergers & Acquisitions 2 - CHARLES K. WHITEHEAD

This lecture is the second in a two-part series on mergers and acquisitions in the United States. In this lecture, we will focus on the responsibility of a company’s directors when breaking up or selling the company to a third-party purchaser. We will address the board of directors’ responsibilities when abandoning its long-term strategy in connection with a sale of control, in particular, the obligation of the directors to exercise reasonable care in maximizing shareholder value in connection with that sale.
