In-House Benefits Counsel Network Eighth National Forum

Partners Jonathan Zimmerman, Patrick Rehfield, and Austin Lilling were invited to speak at the In-Hour Benefits Counsel Network’s National Forum on the panel Compensation & Benefit Considerations in Mergers and Acquisitions.

In M&A transactions, compensation and benefit issues can impact employee integration, executive compensation and benefit plan compliance post-closing. We will dive into topics involving the treatment of acquired equity awards (rolling equity), best practices for acquired plans (e.g., strategies for terminating plans pre-closing) and executive employment agreements.
