For life sciences companies, reverse merger transactions have become increasingly popular. However, merging into a public life sciences company that has experienced a failed clinical program often raises heightened SEC scrutiny and raises legal considerations. During this session, we will discuss:

• Structuring alternatives;
• Recent transactions structured as reverse mergers into public companies;
• SEC comments in connection with recent reverse mergers;
• Documentation, process and timeline;
• New SEC Rule 145a and considerations to avoid shell company status;
• Accounting for reverse acquisitions under US GAAP;
• Accompanying PIPE and other financing transactions; and
• Addressing board and employee matters, anticipating litigation and mitigating liability for the board of the new company.

Don’t get wiped out in the new wave of internet litigation. You are invited to drop in with Mayer Brown for a summer webinar series focused on emerging internet litigation trends including pixel wiretapping, data web scraping and a terms of service refresher. This series will ensure you stay ahead of the impact zone and put rails into place that mitigate risk and remain compliant with evolving laws and regulations.

If you use any of the most common Internet technologies to help you or others track and analyze website visitors, you may already be on a list of companies about to get a pre-suit demand letter from several plaintiff law firms taking advantage of recent developments in the law. For those already caught in the prior waves of pixel, chatbot, and session replay wiretap lawsuits, and for those who managed to ride out those waves, we will discuss the next wave of federal and state wiretap lawsuits we see coming ashore.
