Private Placements and Venture Capital Practicum
Mr. Timothy E. McAllister,
2 credits day; 2 credits evening.
This course provides students with an introduction to the basic types of documents that lawyers
are called upon to negotiate and prepare in private equity financing transactions. Based on the
model of a hypothetical high-technology start-up company, the course will explore different
types of equity capital transactions, including private placements and venture capital
investments. Using model documents from actual transactions, students will examine drafting
and negotiation issues involving stock subscription agreements, investor questionnaires, private
placement memoranda, warrants, and stock purchase agreements. Completion or concurrent
enrollment in Securities Regulation is strongly recommended.
