Bass, Berry & Sims attorney Todd Overman will speak on a panel called “Key Issues in Government Contractor Mergers and Acquisitions” at the 2014 Annual Meeting of the American Bar Association’s Section of Public Contract Law on Friday, August 8.

The panel will address the following questions: What is the current state of the government contractor M&A marketplace? What key deal terms and diligence items should buyers and sellers focus on? What risks and opportunities are presented by contractors with small business set-aside contracts? How should parties deal with foreign investment and/or foreign operation and control of U.S. based government contractors? What are the best practices for transactions involving classified contracts? How should parties avoid common traps associated with novation and other change of control requirements?

The conference will be held August 7-9, 2014 at the Hyatt Regency in Boston, Massachusetts.
