Overview
A recently issued SEC no-action letter provides for an abbreviated approach to tender offers and exchange offers involving non-convertible debt securities provided certain conditions are met. The new guidance may offer increased flexibility to issuers that are considering restructuring their liabilities. Issuers considering a restructuring also should consider recent court decisions related to the application of the Trust Indenture Act. During the session, David M. Lynn and Anna T. Pinedo of Morrison & Foerster LLP will discuss:
- Debt repurchases;
- No-action letter guidance for debt tenders;
- New guidance for tender offers not meeting the conditions of the no-action letter;
- Consent solicitations and the Trust Indenture Act; and
- Tax considerations in a restructuring.
