Abstract
In this chapter and Chapter 3, I turn to the legal aspects of mergers and acquisitions. I will cover rights and responsibilities of successors, creditors, shareholders, boards, controlling parties and employees. I will also look at particular statutory regulatory schemes, as well as employee, antitakeover, securities, antitrust and industry-specific rules.
