Capital Calls – Agreements to Contribute More Capital Over Time

$85.00
  • Author/Instructor:  C. Ben Huber

Many companies need additional capital to fund current operations and fuel growth.  When raising capital, these companies often look first to their existing investor base. The company may build into its operative documents – shareholder agreements, operating agreements, even its articles of incorporation or organization – a plan whereby the company can “call” on existing investors to contribute additional capital. There are various mechanisms for achieving these types of “capital calls” and adjusting the ownership interests and other rights of incumbent investors who do not contribute additional capital. This program will provide you a practical guide to planning capital calls in closely held businesses, including how to adjust the financial and governance rights of the company’s owners. Advantages/disadvantages of requiring capital from existing investor base over time Forms of follow-on contributions – pro-rata and other structures Readjustment of stake in company when certain investors do not participate – dilution issues Voting, informational and related issues on the contribution of additional capital Obtaining additional capital from investors beyond the original Counseling clients about potential investor group disputes   Speaker: C. Ben Huber is a partner in the Denver office of Greenburg Traurig, LLP, where he has a broad transactional practice encompassing mergers and acquisitions, restructurings and reorganizations, corporate finance, capital markets, venture funds, commercial transactions and general corporate law.  He also has substantial experience as counsel to high tech, biotech and software companies in the development, protection and licensing of intellectual property.  His clients include start-up companies, family- and other closely-held businesses, middle market business, Fortune 500 companies, venture funds and institutional investors.  Mr. Huber earned his B.A. from the University of Colorado and his J.D. at the University of Colorado Law School.   Disclaimer:  All views or opinions expressed by any presenter during the course of this CLE is that of the presenter alone and not an opinion of the Oklahoma Bar Association, the employers, or affiliates of the presenters unless specifically stated.

How to Construct Complex Pleadings in Microsoft Word

$84.99
  • Author/Instructor:  Oklahoma Bar Association

How to Construct Complex Pleadings in Microsoft Word One of the most difficult technical tasks one can undertake is formatting a complex brief in Microsoft Word that has a title page, table of contents, table of authorities, multi-level paragraph numbering, and page numbering that starts over in the middle of the document and switches formats (for example, Romanettes to Arabic).  In this class, you’ll receive a finely tuned 10th Circuit US Court of Appeals brief template (in Microsoft Word), and you’ll learn how to use it, customize it to your purposes, automatically generate/update a table of contents and table of authorities, and control formatting within the document no matter where you copied and pasted it from.  The heavy lifting is already done, and if you use this template as the starting point for your next brief, you’ll shave many hours off the process because the formatting will just work.  Of course, we’ll also explain how the template was constructed so you can use the techniques in your other documents.   Disclaimer:  All views or opinions expressed by any presenter during the course of this CLE is that of the presenter alone and not an opinion of the Oklahoma Bar Association, the employers, or affiliates of the presenters unless specifically stated.

The OBA does not recommend or endorse any financial or investment strategy or plan, any type of product, or securities professional. No part of this CLE program shall be taken as investment, financial and/or legal advice by the OBA.     Knowledge is power - financial strategies for women From Simple to Sophisticated: The purpose of the presentation is to discuss ways to maximize retirement plan savings and tax benefits to the partners. Most owners are familiar with 401ks for tax savings. The problem is they are limited in their funding limits. While SEP IRAs allow for larger contributions, they also require contributions for their rank-and-file employees as well. From our experience partners are typically looking for ways to play catch up for retirement while minimizing the amount of taxes they pay.  There are other lesser known options that allow the partners to literally put hundreds of thousands of dollars per year into a plan, thus saving them tens of thousands of dollars in taxes. This seminar is designed to educate the attorneys on how to do both in a way that legally skews the benefits in the partner’s favor. We will also discuss other ways to maximize benefits for partners without violating ERISA guidelines. It will provide the attorneys with 1 CLE credit.     The OBA presents this CLE program as a service to its members. The OBA is not an investment adviser or a financial planner.

Logic Series Part 1 - Informal Logical Fallacies Program Description:The purpose of this powerful new series is to help lawyers develop a practical, working knowledge of the principles of logic, argumentation, and persuasion.  “Logic” is a study of the principles of sound reasoning; “Argumentation” is the process of reasoning systematically to support a proposition; “Persuasion” is the process by which a person’s attitudes are influenced by communications from other people.  In Part 1, we’ll focus on ten common informal logical fallacies, discussing how they are formulated; how to recognize them; how to use them; and how to refuse them in legal arguments and in contract negotiations.       Disclaimer:  All views or opinions expressed by any presenter during the course of this CLE is that of the presenter alone and not an opinion of the Oklahoma Bar Association, the employers, or affiliates of the presenters unless specifically stated.

Logic Series Part 2 - Is that a fact

$49.99
  • Author/Instructor:  Oklahoma Bar Association

Program Description:Classical logic is built upon premises that are presumed to be true, but what exactly is “true” and how does it differ from fact?  A recent Pew Survey revealed that 64% of knowledgeable, savvy Americans could not distinguish properly between five factual statements and five opinion statements; the unknowledgeable, unsavvy Americans fared far worse.  In this fascinating program, Part 2 of Logic, Argumentation, Persuasion, we’ll examine the differences between facts, inferences, beliefs, opinions, and norms.  We’ll use this information to help you construct more convincing, logical arguments and enhance your credibility in litigation and transactional practice, as well as in casual conversations.  We’ll also consider: How “social facts” influence individual behavior; How “norms” differ from “values”; Whether “facts” are always reliable evidence; and How data differs from information   Disclaimer:  All views or opinions expressed by any presenter during the course of this CLE is that of the presenter alone and not an opinion of the Oklahoma Bar Association, the employers, or affiliates of the presenters unless specifically stated.

The Changing Dynamics of a "People Law" Practice

$40.00
  • Author/Instructor:  Oklahoma Bar Association

The Changing Dynamics of a “People Law” Practice Many who study law practice have noted that the practice of People Law, helping individuals with their personal challenges, is now so different from business and corporate law that it might as well be considered a different type of practice entirely. This focus impacts everything from procedures and tools utilized to ways of sharing information with clients. A sound marketing strategy and use of time-saving automation tools are now required. The next predicted trend ahead for People Law is the rise of one-to-many legal service delivery methods as opposed to the traditional one-to-one consultation and delivery. But, done correctly, you can serve more clients and still have the time for the one-to-one conversations and advice that clients desire. OBA MAP Director Jim Calloway will cover concrete ideas for making your People Law practice a success, while outlining what items are dangerous to ignore.     Disclaimer:  All views or opinions expressed by any presenter during the course of this CLE is that of the presenter alone and not an opinion of the Oklahoma Bar Association, the employers, or affiliates of the presenters unless specifically stated.
