Negotiating Private Investments: Structuring Strategies Using Preferred Stock, Convertibles, and Warrants

Join us for a PLI session on structuring strategies for negotiating private investments using preferred stock, convertibles and warrants.  

Mayer Brown speakers will discuss:

• The equity and equity-linked private placement market (including the emergence of unicorns and mega-rounds and the entry of new investors, including private credit and SWFs)
• Preferred stock basics, including typical investor protections, economics and exit rights
• How investors add teeth to preferred stock to further protect their interests
• Structuring convertible notes
• Structuring warrants and their anti-dilution provisions
• Planned exit mechanisms for investors
• Rights of first refusal, co-sale rights, drag- and tag-along provisions
• Other price protection mechanisms
