Tailoring M&A Techniques to Suit Industry Standards

Nossaman's expertise in M&A transactions, including negotiated acquisitions, divestitures, mergers, stock purchase and sale transactions, and corporate reorganizations, stretches across a wide variety of industries.  At the same time, we recognize that each of those industries presents its own unique challenges.

We recently represented the co-owners of a privately-held plastic bottle manufacturing company in the proposed sale of their company to a private equity firm. This transaction involved substantial due diligence, the negotiation of extensive warranties and representations, indemnification provisions (with a "basket" and a "ceiling"), an indemnification escrow, conditions of closing, and an unusual subordinated promissory note for a portion of the purchase price.
