5 Practice Tips for Drafting Representations and Conditions February 20, 2014 Adam R. Schaeffer, Jones Day Vincent R. Martorana, Reed Smith
6 Goals Talk about recent experience and trends in negotiating representations and warranties, covenants, conditions and indemnity. Highlight most negotiated representations and warranties and conditions. Assuming basic understanding of reps, warranties, covenants, conditions and indemnity (i.e., what they generally do / how they work). Happy to answer questions, basic or complicated, at the end or offline. 6
7 Representations and Warranties 7
8 Purpose Diligence Risk Allocation Closing Conditions Indemnification Claims Public vs. Private 8
9 The Lead-In Except (i) [as disclosed in any report... or other document filed with... the SEC and publicly available prior to the date of this Agreement] or (ii) as disclosed [in the disclosure letter delivered by the Company to Parent immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement (it being agreed that disclosure of any item therein shall also be deemed disclosure with respect to any other section of this Agreement to which the relevance of such item is reasonably apparent], [as of the date hereof and as of the Closing,] the Company represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub as follows: 9
10 Qualifiers Knowledge Seller s Knowledge means the [actual] knowledge, [after reasonable due inquiry], of [named individuals] Constructive For which the knowledge group knew or should have known (much more common) Reasonable due inquiry requirement (71%) Materiality / MAE The Company is... in compliance [in all material respects] with all [material] Laws and Orders[ except as would not reasonably be expected to have an MAE] Date qualifiers: looking back / looking ahead 10
11 Compliance with Laws Representation The Company is now, and has been [for the last three years], in compliance [in all material respects] with all [material] Laws and Orders [except to the extent such non-compliance has not, or would not reasonably be expected to, have a material impact on the Business]. [To the Knowledge of the Stockholders,] there is no proposed Law or Order that would be applicable to the Company and that would have a [material impact on the Company/Material Adverse Effect]. The Company has not [in the last three years] received any [written] notice from any Governmental Authority [or any other Person] regarding (a) any actual, alleged[, possible or potential] violation of, or failure to comply with, or liability under any applicable Law, or (b) any actual, alleged, [possible or potential] obligation or liability of the Company. Trends: Look back becoming less common Notice of investigation is becoming more common 11
12 No Undisclosed Liabilities Keys: GAAP, Knowledge, Materiality / MAE No GAAP Qualifier: [To the Company s Knowledge,] [as of the date hereof,] there are no [material] liabilities or obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether accrued, absolute, determined or contingent, except for (i) liabilities or obligations disclosed and provided for in the balance sheets included in the Company Financial Statements (or in the notes thereto), [(ii) liabilities or obligations incurred in connection with the Transactions,] (iii) liabilities or obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent in the past practice since [the date of the last Balance Sheet], [(iv) liabilities reflected or referred to in the Disclosure Schedules,] and [(v) liabilities or obligations that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect] GAAP-limited: The Company and its Subsidiaries have no Liabilities of a type required to be reflected on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP other than (i) Liabilities expressly reflected, reserved against or otherwise disclosed in the Most Recent Balance Sheet (including the notes thereto)... Mini-basket: The Company and its Subsidiaries have no Liabilities of a type required to be reflected on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP other than (i) Liabilities that are, in the aggregate, less than $[ ]... 12
13 Sufficiency Asset deals / carve-out deals Except for the services and assets contemplated to be performed or provided to Purchaser pursuant to the TSA, the [Purchased Assets / assets owned, leased or licensed by the Company] constitute all assets, properties and rights necessary or desirable to conduct the Business as currently conducted and, immediately after the Closing, for Purchaser to continue to operate and conduct the Businessin all material respects as currently conducted. Should the sufficiency rep apply to IP?... the [Purchased Assets / assets of the Company] constitute all tangible and intangible assets, properties and rights necessary to conduct the Business... 13
14 Financial Statements GAAP Qualified: The Financial Statements fairly present [, in all material respects,] the financial condition and the results of operation, shareholders equity and cash flow of the Company..., in each case, in accordance with GAAP. Not GAAP Qualified: The Financial Statements (i) fairly present the consolidated financial condition... Of the Company... and (ii)... were prepared in accordance with GAAP, [subject to normal year-end adjustments]. 14
15 FCPA / Anti-Bribery No Acquired Company, nor any of their respective managers, directors, officers, agents, brokers, representatives, employees or consultants acting on their behalf, has used any funds to make, directly or indirectly, any unlawful contribution, gift, bribe, forgiveness of all or part of a debt, payoff, kickback or other unlawful payment or any facilitation payment to or at the direction of any Government Official in violation of any Anti- Corruption Laws. DOJ guidance and emphasis on diligence Every deal? 15
16 10b-5 / Full-Disclosure Representation 10b-5: [To Seller s Knowledge,] neither this Agreement (including the exhibits and schedules hereto) or the Ancillary Agreements nor any other agreement, document, certificate or written statement furnished to the Buyer by or on behalf of the Company in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading. Full disclosure: [To Seller s Knowledge,] the Seller has not withheld from the Buyer any material facts relating to the condition (financial or otherwise), business, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, employee or customer relations or prospects of the Company s business. Generally aggressive, other than in material acquisitions by public companies 16
17 Anti-Sandbagging Representation Buyer has no knowledge of any breach of the Company s representations or warranties in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements and Buyer has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to closing will not be satisfied on or prior to the Termination Date. Can be included as a representation, covenant, in the indemnity provisions or even in the miscellaneous section Arguments 17
18 Disclaimers Except for the representations and warranties contained in this Article III, Seller makes no representation or warranty of any kind or nature whatsoever, oral or written, express or implied, with respect to [the Company] or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any relating to the financial condition, results of operations, assets or Liabilities of the Company. Except for the representations and warranties contained in this Article III, Seller disclaims... (i) any other representations or warranties, whether made by Seller or any other Person and (ii) all Liability and responsibility for any other representation, warranty, opinion, projection, forecast, advice, statement or information made, communicated or furnished (orally or in writing) to Buyer or its Affiliates or their respective Representatives (including any opinion, projection, forecast, advice, statement or information that may have been or may be provided to Buyer or its Affiliates or Representatives by any Seller or any Representative of Seller or any of their respective Affiliates). For the avoidance of doubt, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates makes any representations or warranties to Buyer or any other Person regarding the probable success, future performance or profitability of the Company or the Business (whether before or after the Closing). 18
19 Ring-Fencing The representations set forth in this Section 3.17 are the only representations given by the Seller with respect to matters related to intellectual property matters. Can you rely solely on practice area-specific reps? Environmental, IP, labor, benefits, real estate Cross-reference areas: Material contracts Compliance with laws Permits Litigation Undisclosed liabilities No changes Environmental with real estate and benefits with labor Make sure specialist teams are involved early and often; highlight ring-fence language Look for these everywhere 19
20 Timing / Updates When are representations made? Who bears the post-signing risk? Updates: mandatory, permissive, effect All matters: If prior to the Closing, Seller delivers to Buyer a supplement or update to the Disclosure Schedules that corrects a misrepresentation made on the date of this Agreement or as a result of any matter arising after the date hereof and before the Closing occurs then the matters contained in such supplement or update shall be deemed to amend this Agreement and the Disclosure Schedules effective as of the date of this Agreement for all purposes hereunder other than determining whether the condition set forth in Section 8.02(b) or Section 8.02(d) has been satisfied. 20
21 Disclosure Schedule Updates New matters only: The Company may supplement any portion of the Disclosure Schedule prior to the Closing for the purpose of updating disclosures to reflect any facts or matters occurring after the date hereof and on or prior to the Closing Date ( Disclosed Additional Matters ); and, to the extent the Closing occurs, such Disclosed Additional Matters shall be treated as if they had been included in the Disclosure Schedule as of the date hereof for the purpose of determining whether the Buyer is entitled to indemnification for breach of a representation and warranty... No Disclosed Additional Matter shall qualify any representations and warranties for the purpose of determining the satisfaction of the conditions to Closing... Effect of updates: no Disclosed Additional Matter shall qualify any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of the Company for any purpose, affect any remedy available... hereunder (including indemnification... or the right to specific performance) or affect the determination of whether the conditions to Closing have been satisfied. 21
22 Disclosure Schedules Buy-side Pitfalls Broad general reference to schedules as qualifying all representations: Except as set forth in the disclosure schedules, the Company makes the following representations... Cross-referencing: An item disclosed on one schedule is deemed disclosed on all other schedules. An item disclosed on one schedule is deemed disclosed on another schedule to the extent the disclosure of such item on such other schedule is readily apparent on its face. Ambiguous disclosure: Matters disclosed in the environmental reports provided to Buyer Matters disclosed in the Site Assessment Reports of ABC Environmental Inc. dated March 1, 2010 Remediation obligations disclosed in section 6.3 of the [Environmental Report] 22
23 Rep and Warranty Insurance Trend Allow sellers to liquidate proceeds Management relationships Buy-side v. sell-side policies Understand what will be covered and what needs to be provided Caps / SRI / time periods Subrogation clauses Consider privilege issues (e.g., diligence report) 23
24 Covenants Pre-Closing Covenants Conduct of the Business Affirmative Covenants Negative Covenants No Solicitation (no-shop, no-talk, no-changing your mind) Due Diligence; Access to Information Government and Third-party Consents, Filings, and Notices Notification (of breaches, inaccuracies, and other bad events ) Satisfaction of Closing Conditions Public Announcements 24
25 Covenants Post-Closing Covenants Confidentiality (remember: non-use) Non-competition Non-solicitation Access to Information Further Assurances 25
26 Closing Conditions 26
27 Closing Conditions Market Trends Competitive marketplace: fewer conditions In auction process, value maximized if seller can say make best and final proposal; if buyers think they have another bite at the apple, they may hold back The target business comes under internal and external pressures once deal announced (risk of damaged goods) Closing certainty is at the top of the sellers list Conditions contingent on third parties: can change leverage and introduce uncertainty Creative alternatives if closing conditions are not satisfied or in lieu of closing conditions (consent workaround / staggered closings) Keys are: Tightness of closing conditions (the MAE standard) Certainty in financing after debacles Measure of other party s closing commitment (regulatory requirements and third-party consents) 27
28 Regulatory Approval Governmental Approvals: (i) The waiting period (including any extension thereof) applicable to the consummation of the Merger under the HSR Act shall have expired or been terminated, (ii) all filings with or Permits set forth in Schedule 7.1(b) shall have been obtained or shall have occurred and (iii) all other filings with or permits, clearances, authorizations, consents, orders or approvals of or expirations of waiting periods imposed pursuant to any applicable Antitrust Laws required to consummate the Merger shall have been obtained or filed or shall have occurred. All other filings with or permits, clearances, authorizations, consents, orders or approvals or expirations of waiting periods imposed or required by any Governmental Entity in connection with the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the absence of which would render the consummation of the Merger illegal or could be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, shall have expired, terminated or been obtained. 28
29 No Litigation Since the date of this Agreement, there must not have been commenced... any Proceeding (a) involving any challenge to, or seeking damages or other relief in connection with the Transaction or (b) that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of preventing, delaying or making illegal the Transaction. Government vs. all actions Public vs. private deals 29
30 The Bring Down Unqualified: The representations and warranties of the Company... will be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date, as if made on the date hereof and the Closing Date... ; Materiality qualified: The representations and warranties of the Company... will be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date, as if made on the date hereof and the Closing Date... ; MAE Standard: The representations and warranties of the Company... will be true and correct in all respects as of Closing Date, as if made on the date hereof and the Closing Date, except (i) to the extent the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct would not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect... ; 30
31 The Bring Down Generally even split between MAE and materiality Most deals today adopt a variable approach some fundamental representations are absolute, others MAE-qualified Double materiality scrape the representations and warranties of the Company... will be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date, as if made on the date hereof and the Closing Date (it being understood that, for purposes of determining whether such representations and warranties are true and correct, all Material Adverse Effect, materiality and similar qualifications will be disregarded)... ; How it works: Schedule 3.11(b) lists each material Governmental Authorization held by or on behalf of the Business or Seller. Timing of the bring down: signing, closing or both 31
32 MAE There shall not have occurred any event, state of facts or circumstances which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. MAE means any fact, circumstance, event, change, effect or occurrence that (i) has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, but will not include... (A) changes in general economic conditions, (B) changes in conditions generally affecting the [specified industry], (C) regulatory, legislative or political conditions or capital markets conditions in any jurisdiction, (D) failure by the Company to meet any projections... (... facts or occurrences giving rise to or contributing to such failure may be deemed to constitute... a MAE), (E) the execution of this Agreement, (F) performance by the Company of this Agreement, (G) changes in Law or GAAP, (H) outbreak of hostilities..., or (I) any hurricane, tornado, flood, earthquake or other natural disaster except in the case of clauses (A), (B), (C), (G), (H) or (I) to the extent such fact... has a disproportionate effect... or (ii) that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay the Company s ability to perform hereunder. Real world utility? 32
33 The Quantitative MAE An innovation that everyone says should be widespread, but still is not Some examples of quantitative MAEs / standalone financial metric tests Material Adverse Effect means any change... reasonably expected to result in... any damage, destruction or casualty loss with respect to the Acquired Assets or the Business that require capital expenditures of $25,000,000 or more to conduct the Business in the Ordinary Course of Business Consider stand-alone closing condition as an alternative 33
34 Quantitative / Qualitative Condition Quantitative conditions Minimum income statement performance metrics Minimum balance sheet performance metrics Minimum production metrics: The Facility shall have been operating in the Ordinary Course of Business for each of the four days immediately preceding the Closing Date, producing widgets at a rate of 220,000 widgets per day for each full day of operation during such period. Qualitative conditions: Seller shall be able to transport widgets from, and other Inventory to, the Facility on the Rail Line in the Ordinary Course of Business. 34
35 Definitional Provisions Negotiated Inclusion of prospects in definition ( MAE means any fact... that has a materially adverse effect on the business... or prospects of the Company ) Forward looking? ( has had or would reasonably be expected to have ) Seller s ability to consummate ( that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impair the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or to consummate the Transactions ) Specific dollar threshold / mini-mac Specific, non-exclusive financial or operational milestones Carve-outs Subsidiary MACs taken as a whole ( a material adverse effect on... the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole ) Opportunity to cure before closing Short-term / long-term effects ( the near-term or long-term results of operations or financial condition of the Business ) (default rule is long-term only) Anti-sandbag 35
36 Definitional Provisions Negotiated Carve-outs Top carve-outs* Economic conditions War or terrorism Changes in law Industry conditions Announcement of the transaction Changes in accounting Financial market downturn Actions required by agreement Most deals have at least one carve-out qualified by disproportionate effect *Source: ABA s 2013 Private Target Mergers & Acquisitions Deal Points Study. 36
37 Financing Conditions Prevalence of stand-alone financing out has declined significantly after Financial Crisis Stand-alone financing condition: condition without accompanying break fee Example: Buyer shall be permitted to terminate this Agreement if the Financing has not been consummated on or prior to [a date certain] Many big deals are financed In the PE world, nearly every big deal is financed with debt Current approach is to require equity commitment, fully committed debt financing and a reverse break fee 37
38 Anatomy of the Modern Financing Condition Termination right by the seller if the proposed financing is terminated or other events occur that make the financing unlikely: Agreement may be terminated... if (i) the Commitment Letter is terminated without a closing..., (ii) the Lenders have given notice (A) of breach thereunder by Parent or Merger Sub or (B) of their intent to terminate the Commitment Letter or not consummate the transactions..., (iii) the conditions to the Lenders obligations... have been satisfied, but the Lenders do not consummate such transactions... or (iv) Parent or Merger Sub breach any of their obligations [with respect to the financing covenant]... Payment of termination fee (or reverse break fee ) by buyer if buyer doesn t close: If (i) the conditions to Purchaser s obligations... have been satisfied or duly waived and (ii) this Agreement is validly terminated by the Seller pursuant to [financing termination provision or drop dead], then Purchaser will pay to Seller... the Termination Fee. Company may not obtain both the specific performance... and receive the Termination Fee. Termination Fee as liquidated damages Covenants Guarantee / equity commitment 38
39 Financing Condition: Reverse Breakup Fee Because reverse termination fees do not have the effect of chilling bidding (i.e., no negative effect to the target s stockholders), they are not held to the same scrutiny, and may be enforceable at levels in excess of traditional breakup fees In 2012, the median reverse breakup fee of deals within the study was approximately 5% of transaction value, and 4.7% of enterprise value* Reverse breakup fees have generally increased* 6.0% 5.0% 4.0% 3.0% 2.0% 1.0% Break Fee as % of Trans. Val. Break Fee as % of Ent. Val. Rev. Break Fee as % of Trans. Val. Rev. Break Fee as % of Ent. Val. 0.0% *Source: Houlihan Lokey 2012 Transaction Termination Fee Study 39
40 Indemnification General points Effective upon closing Joint and several liability Indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Applicable indemnified parties Survival Reps and warranties Generally Exceptions (fundamental reps, other exceptions) Obligations 40
41 Indemnification Definition of Losses Nexus phrases arising out of or relating to Bases for indemnification Inaccuracy of reps Breach of obligation Specific dollar one indemnities Brokers; pre-closing taxes 41
42 Indemnification Limitations on Indemnification Deductibles and caps Types of deductibles True deductible vs. tipping basket mini deductibles What types of claims do deductibles and caps apply to? Exceptions Insurance proceeds Tax benefits of loss Duty to mitigate 42
43 Indemnification Other factors Materiality and knowledge scrapes Multiple bases for recovery Interaction with purchase price Sandbagging provisions What does silence mean? 43
44 Indemnification Procedures for bringing claims Claim notice Direct claims Objection notice Right to investigate Third-party claims Third-party claim notice Right of Indemnifying Party to defend/control third-party claim 44
45 Indemnification Payment Tax treatment of Losses Third-party beneficiary status Exclusive remedy 45
