Written by experienced corporate attorneys, Stockholders' Agreements Line by Line provides a practical approach to understanding the issues involved in drafting and negotiating a stockholders' agreement. Participants in a closely-held corporation often use a stockholders' agreement to establish an understanding among themselves and the corporation as to the corporation's governance, special approval rights, information and access rights, transfer rights and restrictions, and rights to participate in future capital raises and sale transactions. This book analyzes a sample agreement from the perspective of each of the parties involved-a control investor, a co-investor, a lender and management. The authors offer guidance on negotiating positions commonly taken by the different parties to the agreement and address the remedies that each party might seek to protect its rights. Stockholders' Agreements Line by Line is a valuable resource for anyone who has ever negotiated a stockholders' agreement, as well as for any party who is about to enter into such an agreement.
