AHLA Health Care Transactions Conference 2023 | K&L Gates LLP | 17 April 2023 | Grand Hyatt Nashville, 1000 Broadway, Nashville, TN 37203, USA

This conference presents an opportunity in the market for strategic acquirers looking to purchase distressed assets or entities at lower valuations. Acquiring distressed businesses presents unique challenges including, but not limited to:

• Fraudulent transfer actions
• Successor liability claims
• De Facto merger issues

Traditional risk-mitigation strategies, such as representations and warranties and indemnification may not be viable options in a distressed deal. Panelists will discuss strategies to successfully mitigate these risks in distressed transactions.
