The Morgan Lewis M&A Academy, a 15-part series of tailored webinars led by a diverse team of firm lawyers, provides a comprehensive M&A overview and is ideal for learning about the latest M&A issues and developments. It is geared not only toward M&A professionals but also toward specialists with particular areas of focus (e.g., benefits, intellectual property, tax), whether they deal with M&A issues regularly or occasionally.
In this session, Austin Lilling and Carly Grey discuss employee benefits and executive compensation issues arising in the context of M&A, including due diligence concerns, treatment of equity awards, “golden parachute payments,” and post-closing integration of employee benefit plans.
