Program Description
 
Despite the best laid plans and careful draftsmanship, errors occur in transactions and their underlying documents.  The parties may have had a misunderstanding of a crucial fact or there may have been a misunderstanding of the applicable law, leaving the parties with a practically or legally defective arrangement.  Or a simple drafting error may have been made in one or more of the transaction’s underlying documents.  Rescission, backdating and other forms of transactional modification are available to correct these mistakes.  This program will provide you with a practical guide to using rescission, backdating and other forms of modification to fix transactional errors, teach you about the best uses and limits of each technique, and discuss the tax and other consequences of using these techniques.

- Statutory and common law recognition of rescission
- Permissibility of back-dating certain transactions
- Special use of rescission to save S Corp status of a corporation
- Tax consequences of rescission and other corrective measures
